Tie dye, by nature, is a casual print so it makes sense that we’d show off an awesome sweatshirt. The splotchy print gives this sweatshirt a unique twist and we chose to bring out the pink tones with an outrageously cute pink backpack. The mustard headband is the best way to add a pop of color, and the almost military style boots give this outfit an edgier twist!
In case you haven’t noticed, the trick to pulling off this trend is to find tie dye prints that are unique and fun rather than the typical circular rainbow. We LOVE bomber jackets so when we found this tie dyed bomber jacket, we just could not resist pairing it with high waisted jeans and a black bodysuit. Want to go all out? Tack on a black choker and belt bag…so 2019!

If you’re excited about this trend, butoffice appropriate ensemble then this is the outfit for you! The pleated skirt is cinched at the waist and very flattering. The blue cardigan will bring out the blue in the skirt and the orange sandals add some fun brightness to the look! </s> The Council for Medical Schemes for 2011. The organisation’s total budget, including the capital budget was approximately R98.6 million for this year as compared with the budget of R82.9 million for the previous year. This was approximately a 19% increase for the budget, which translated into a levy increase from R18.29 to R22.83 for the whole year. The salary payments increased from R51.8 million to R58 million, which represented a 12% increase. In total, the salary bill accounted for approximately 68.8% of the CMS’ total budget. The entity’s operational expenditure increased from R79.92 million to approximately R95.3 million.
briefed the Committee on what they were doing to help the HIV and AIDS programme. BUSA was the national voice of business and representedoth organisations also had seats on the South African National AIDS Council. BUSA and SABCOHA worked very closely together on the issue of HIV and AIDS. SABCOHA drove the implementation and monitoring of business-led initiatives on HIV and AIDS. SABCOHA’s mission was to coordinate efforts to mitigate the impact of HIV and AIDS on sustained profitability and economic growth. SABCOHA was founded in 2001 and was a not-for-profit, membership based organisation. SABCOHA wanted to ensure that business was part of a nationally coordinated response to HIV and was aligned with national priorities. SABCOHA was in the process of developing strategies that addressed the differentiated business sector. Future areas of focus for SABCOHA included closer alignment with structures within he organisation also wanted to develop a private sector monitoring and evaluation unit, and hoped to strengthen communication within the private sector.
Members enquired if the organisations foresaw any hindrances preventing the government from achieving itsV/AIDS by 2015. They also asked what the outreach and recruitment strategy SABCOHA had for its peer education project, how businesses would contribute to helping society and the government at large and if both organisations would also look into occupational health and safety as it went much deeper than just HIV, TB and Sexually Transmitted Infections.
Dr Monwabisi Gantsho, Chief Executive Officer of the Council for Medical Schemes (CMS) and the Registrar of Medical Schemes, said that the organisation had taken stock of the past ten years of its existence and was looking at ways to make the entity stronger, as well as more efficient and effective. The private healthcare sector was in good shape and would only get stronger going forward. The environment in which the CMS had operated for the past few years was changing and becoming very complex. The CMS was coping when it came to the regulations, but still it needed the Committee’s support. The CMS required an increase in its capacity and budget in order to become more effective. The number of complaints about medical aid schemes had increased from a few hundreds a year to approximately 6000 a year. It was the CMS’ duty to protect the beneficiaries of the schemes.
Mr Daniel Lehutjo, Chief Financial Officer: CMS, reported that the budget would be In this regard, the. This was financed through cash requirements, of which they had surplus funds from the previous financial year. ICMS had to apply for usage of the surplus fund.
Dr Boshoff Steenekamp, Strategic Project Specialist: CMS, said that he wanted to put in perspective the cost of regulation. If the Committee looked at the percentage increase of 24.8% it looked like a very large increase for this year. But, the total budget was approximately 0.092% of the contributions that people made to the medical schemes. This meant that only one out of every ten thousand cents that was paid towards a medical scheme, went to the CMS for regulations. The levy notice was published on the CMS website and a number of schemes had commented, saying that there should not be an increase. The CMS accepted the Monetary Policy Committee’s projected Consumer Price Index (CPI) to be around 4.8% in this period. However, it needed to account for other issues as well such as the 5% more beneficiaries that would be protected. This explained the first part of the levy increase. If the Committee looked at the levy increase in real terms, it meant the old prices for inflation was adjusted; it showed that the increase was around 14%.
Over the years, the levy had become increasingly important because the statutory fees, which were the fees the schemes had to pay when they wanted to register or if they wanted to be accredited, had not |

en | N/A | N/A | Eazy-E’s Widow Tomica Wrighecember 14, 2020 May 14, 2021
Tomica Wright was not famous until the death of his legendary rapper husband, Eric Lynn Wright, popularlycalled Eazy-E. They got married in 1995, and the rapper died twelve days later. Eazy-E was the leader of N.W.A., a hip-hop teamwhich was under his record label known as Ruthless Records.
After the rapper’s death, Tomica took over the record label in 1995, and currently she serves as the CEO and president, growing her late husband’s legacy. At the time of hispassing, the label’s worth was around $15 million, which has increased due to Tomica’s hard work.
Tomica had a hard time getting the company back on its feet in the first few years. This is because he had to find new musicians and managers to work with her. However, with years of dedication, she has learned the industry’s culture, which has helped her run the label effectively.
She signed new musicians and got help from experts who were close to Eazy-E, like Dr, Dre and Ice Cube.Tomica has worked with many artists under the label, including Chris Tucker,Kid Frost, Hopsin, Big Chan, and Stevie Stone.
Tomica Wright Cars And House
Tomica Wright Bio: Age, Early Life, Parents, Education Details
Tomica’s net worth is approximately$10 million, mostly made from her activities in the record label. Despite running a business she didn’t establish, Tomica significantly helped it make more money using her entrepreneurial skills.
Tomica is also passionate about film, and has produced several TV shows and movies. For instance, she was the executive producer of Eazy-E’s documentary: The Impact of a Legend, which was released in 2002. In 2015, she produced the popular film Straight Outta Compton, which saw her pocket over $200 million from the global box office. Besides, she makes a lot of money from DVD sales of her movies, allowing her to achieve that decent net worth.
In 2005, Tomica bought their family home in Calabasas, allegedly at $3,099,000. In 2010, an article by TMZ, which was removed, claimed that the house was foreclosed after Tomica stopped paying her mortgage payments.
Many details were not adding up, which probably is why the article was removed from the site. However, the family moved, and the home was listed for $1.8 million in October 2012. It was then sold on November 27, 2012, at $2,067,000. There is no much information about her current residence or cars.
Tomica Woods Wright, was born on an undisclosed date in 1969 in Los Angeles. She was raised by her mom and dad interchangeably as they lived in different areas and was once inthe foster system.
Tomicais an alumnus ofSan Fernando Valley high school. She performed welland joined Santa Monica and West L.A. Community College. After college, she got a secretarial work at Tabu Records founded by Clarence Avant. Through Clarence, she met Eazy-E at a nightclub.
In 1993, Clarence was offered a chairman post at Motown Records, and he went with Tomica as his secretary. She was a secretary until she had to take over the record label. She informed Clarence of her plans to resignwhen Eazy-E’s illness worsened and was admitted to the hospital. The experience she gained at Tabu Records significantly helped her when she started managing Ruthless Records.
Shewas a single mom beforeshe started dating Eazy-E and together they got two kids, Dominick, and Daijah Wright.
Tomica Wright is from a humble background in Los Angeles. She met Eazy-E in 1991, and shortly after that they started dating. The lovebirdsdated for four years, and in 1995 they decided to get married. After twelve days in marriage, Eazy-E died, which meant that Tomica had to step up to keep his late husband’s legacy alive.
She has faced a lot of criticism from people who think she sought quick fortune. She has responded in interviews stating that Ruthless records was facing issues before joining, so she had to put more effort. Also, she wasn’t made the president right away, she was first a vice president while still learning. She has done a fantastic job, and Ruthless Records is now among the top record labels in the music industry.

en | N/A | N/A | So you fought your battles and decided to end up getting married — only to find out it is not the “happily ever after – the end” that every literary production promises it to be. Honestly, all that those books promised about love, life and adulthood never really conspires, so I don’t know why we still continue believing in them in spite of their zero deliverance rates.
Marriages are grass is greener on the other side scenario at best. We all grow up and go through life believing in the blissful penultimate finale of this fabled matrimony, where life is all about being with your SO day in and day out, by the beach or by other such dreamy exotic locations. Peppered with lots of hot tubs, bedtimes, and breakfasts where plates aren’t the only things that you use. A notion about marriage that seems highly old-fashioned and traditional… but when in reality it is the modern definition of marriage that we are looking at.
Old fashioned marriages were only for pooling two families together, a contract done in business and love was totally optional with the possibility of its non-existence included — and even expected at times.
It’s the modern belief of weddings done with love at its pinnacle that has everyone running behind it. A modern matrimonial is much more than just that because it is a bringer of sustainability, stability — both financial and emotional, companionship, partnership and much more.
But we aren’t here to discuss our beliefs, history of the notion of marriages or what they are rumored to be. We are here because you are married (or just here reading up on what to expect — good for you!) and you realize, it is less of a happily – ever – after and more of a marginally – happy – every – now – and – then.
You have been there through each other’s highs and lows. You have seen each other’s flaws and traits, bore the brunt of each other’s moodiness and fury. You might have even discovered each other’s annoying habits and weird, borderline superstitious beliefs. And yet through the thick and thin of it all, you decided that you both were the one for each other. That is how unconditional love should be — whether it rains or the sun shines, flood or drought, Monday or Saturday.
Unconditional love makes the term sound highly attainable. However, in its purest sense, it means allowing both of you freedom to be yourself. It is where your flaws are acknowledged but strengths are encouraged, where you are allowed to have a say without you ever being manipulated, undermined, abused or made to feel unsafe in any way. Where you are allowed to be your own person with your own individual dreams and being supported in them without any insecurity or jealousy involved. If that is not the case, then you are not with the right person.
What it should not be is overly selfless. Putting yourself aside so that you constantly give, give and give is not called love. It is called one-sided and it is unhealthy. Love, especially after marriage, is about giving and taking enough to sustain both of yourselves to keep your new dynamic balanced, desirable and healthy. When you are equally focused on what your SO needs and what you need, you are opening yourself up to be sensitive, and when you are sensitive enough, you will just know when to have the serious-talk because one of you seem to be stressed, when to pop in a surprise outing to spice things up and you will know just what today needs to uphold your love and keep your sparks alive.
Love should be unconditional, but partnership shouldn’t be. In this partnership, you are not meant to be the sole giver in everything. If that is the case, then you are just setting yourself up to tumble down eventually. An ideal partnership is like any other group project. It involves ideas clashing, opinions not matching, differences arising — only to resolve it by understanding, accepting each other’s views and then acknowledging it by reaching a compromise that you both agree upon.
Just like in a group project, you might end up taking more load than your fair share, but you know that you except your partner to return the favor when it comes to you. Remember that when you have to ask your SO to give up something on his priority for you — be prepared to do the same for them. Better yet, have a contingency plan already mapped out, showing them that you know how important it was and that you had thought about it. Not that this is a prototype solution to fix all your clashing plans. It is your partnership — you have to sit down and map out what fits you two the best.
Relationships still work if you have just unconditional love helping you on, even if you don’t have a great partnership or if your partnership is just incompatible, so to say.
Just like partnerships — and group projects — work without the parties involved not loving each other. |

en | N/A | N/A | le - People think in addition to the cruise fare they also have to pay the Travel Concierge . In some cases this is true. BUT and this is a big BUT…a Travel Concierge will either charge you a service fee to do the research for you that is applied to the final payment of your cruise if you book through them; OR they will not charge you a fee at all. If a Travel Concierge charges a fee ask them if it is applied to your booking, if not find another Travel Concierge . The Travel Concierge are paid commissions by the cruise line NOT by the client.
- People also think it is quicker to book it themselves than through a Travel Concierge. FALSE! Most of the time when booking through an online booking site you don’t get to select what stateroom you want. You get to choose the type of stateroom (Inside, Ocean View, Balcony or Suite) but you don’t get to select the specific stateroom and its location. You just get the luck of the draw. A good Travel Concierge knows how to navigate the cruise booking quickly. They also have access to what rooms are They assist you in selecting the right stateroom for you and can ensure that you your stateroom is not over or under the kitchens, nightclubs, lounges etc., ensuring that you are not disturbed by loud music or kitchen noises.
OPTION 3 – BOOKING THROUGH A TRAVEL CONCIERGE
- People who book through a Travel Concierge have a single point of contact. If you have a question you ask your Travel Concierge and they get the answers for you. If you call the cruise line directly you will get a different person each time and each person may tell you something different. With some online booking sites good luck trying to get hold of a live person.n advocate. If there are any problems with their booking or while traveling they call their Travel Concierge; who will then own the problem and work to find a resolution.
- People who book through a Travel Concierge are getting an expert. A Travel Concierge is constantly in train about the industry to better serve you. But more about that in another blog.

Elite athlete receptivity to sport psychology consulting in Ireland.
The Irish Journal of Psychology, Online
This study assessed the willingness of elite athletes from Northern Ireland and theRepublic of Ireland to seek sport psychology consulting (SPC), their perceptions ofthe potential benefits of SPC to themselves or their team and how accessible theyperceive SPC to be. A sample of elite and sub-elite athletes (n = 68) completed anonline survey and a sub-sample (n = 7) also participated in a semi-structuredinterview. Results showed that athletes were willing to seek assistance from SPCfor a wide range of topics such as building confidence, improving focus anddealing with injury, although a preference was displayed for topics more readilyperceived as directly related to enhancing performance. All SPC topics exploredwere perceived to be of benefit, with a similar preference expressed for topicsmore readily associated with enhancing performance, for example, competing aswell in competition as in practice, over dealing with personal issues orcommunication. Chi-square tests revealed athletes with highly effective priorexperience of SPC were more receptive to SPC than those with less effectiveexperiences (p < .01). Access to SPC was considered low by 48% of athletes, withidentified themes suggesting athlete support networks, either head coaches orgoverning bodies, were the key decision-makers and ‘gatekeepers’ regardingathlete access to SPC. The findings have implications for marketing the practicalbenefits of SPC across the island of Ireland and highlight the room forimprovement in providing better athletes’ access. |

Here again, Mayor Jim Watson is silent after his popular vocal outburst regarding the original design model. That protest rings rather hollow if Watson is not prepared to carry his disagreement with this design any further. Therefore, will Watson once again say: "back to the drawing board"; or instead claim that "the new design is an improvement that satisfies my previous concerns"? |

en | N/A | N/A | In 2011 – I dropped a graffiti engine bay on the game. Was I the 1st one to do it?NO. Will I be the last?NO. I've never claimed to be the inventor of that. Truth be told – Hybrid's Del Sol was probably the 1st to publicly drop it…and there were probably others before them. But Hybrid's car was a beautiful build that inspired many – myself included. In all honesty, I'm not quite sure why mine has gained all the attention that it has over the last few years. But what I am sure of, is that I am humbled by the overwhelming love that the fellow enthusiasts have shown. And for that – I thank you from the bottom of my heart. The car that I built is loved by some and hated by others. It has been seen in magazines, yet skipped over by some of the industry 'elite' because it didn't follow the guidelines of many praised Hondas out there. No sleep lost – because I built the car with my heart, not following the average trends. I let my personality show through my build. And is that not why we build them?
Which brings me to my point:and I could not agree more. I have seen so many graffiti bays executed over the years, and again, I am humbled if I had any part in that. I've seen graffiti bays copied almost to the 'T' in countries I can barley pronounce. It's an amazing feeling…
Trends will always come and go, but at the end of the day, if you build something…
And if someone inspires you, don't be ashamed to say it!Because at the end of the day, we were all inspired by someone. – @Joe Backyard Schneider (Photos by Shocker Joe…a different 'Joe'…

Aas consumption of alcohol and disturbing the peace of the community, the living conditions are deteriorating.
Walls of the houses are falling apart, toilets and shower rooms are hanging on rotting beams.
In some houses water pressure is very low due to an aging water distribution system in the barracks. However, the families of the policemen are indifferent to these terrible conditions that they do not feel alarmed.
Some are so comfortable that they use the utilities as running water and electricity coupled with patches of land within the barracks to set up small markets which I believe will violate basic health and safety inspection tests.
Yet the unsuspecting public buy the goods they are selling.
So, whoever responsible for the affairs, development and or relocation of the Gordon Police Barracks should do something and do it quickly. |

美国铁.
铁路也推动了沿途小城镇的发展。伊利诺伊州中央铁路，在1855年比任何其他铁路都有更多的轨道，它不仅从交通中赚钱，而且从房地产投机中赚钱。伊利诺伊州中部为沿途的车站购买土地，然后在车站周围布置城镇。例如，选择伊利诺伊州曼特诺作为伊利诺伊州中部的一个站点，将该站点从1854年一个没有一栋房子的十字路口改造成1860年一个拥有近千人的繁华小镇，这里充斥着酒店、伐木场、谷物升降机和垃圾场。到了内战(1861-1865年)，很少有人认为连接中西部的铁路是一个边疆地区，也很少有人认为它的居民是先驱者。.
作为国家第一大商业，铁路改变了商业行为。在19世纪30年代早期，铁路和运河一样依赖于州政府的财政援助。然而，随着19世纪30年代末经济萧条的开始，州政府取消了过于雄心勃勃的铁路项目。选民们深信，铁路给他们带来了沉重的税收和沉重的希望，于是转而反对国家援助。在19世纪40年代初，几个州修改了宪法，禁止国家资助铁路和运河。联邦政府采取了一些松懈，但联邦援助没有提供一个主要的刺激铁路在1860年之前。相反，部分财政负担转移到了农业地区的市和县政府，这些政府希望吸引铁路。例如，这些市政府经常给予铁路通行权、车站用地和公共资金。而，19世纪50年代铁路网络的急剧扩张，使地方政府的融资能力受到了限制，需要转向私人投资，这一点从未被忽视过。由于很清楚铁路的经济效益，居住在附近的人长期购买政府发行的铁路股票，并直接购买铁路股票，通常通过为修建铁路付出劳动来支付。但19世纪50年代的大型铁路需要的资本比这些小投资者能创造的要多。渐渐地，铁路融资中心转移到了纽约市，事实上，正是19世纪50年代的铁路繁荣使纽约市的华尔街成为了全国最大的资本市场。19世纪50年代，所有主要铁路公司的股票都在纽约证券交易所交易。此外，铁路的发展使纽约成为现代投资公司的中心。投资公司评估了美国小城市的铁路库存，然后在纽约、费城、巴黎、伦敦、阿姆斯特丹和汉堡找到了这些库存的买家。在控制资金流向铁路的过程中，投资�� |
en | N/A | N/A | said front leg control assembly includes: a shaft to which said front legs are attached and said shaft is moveably attached to the frame to move a selective distance along the length of the frame; and alock assembly connected to said shaft for controlling movement of said shaft along the frame.
23. The stretcher of claim 15, wherein said release mechanism further includes a second release lever that is moveably connected to said frame and that is connected to the leg control assembly with which said release mechanism is associated toselectively move the leg control assembly from the locked state to the release state.
24. The stretcher of claim 15, wherein said handle is attached to said frame so that said handle and said release lever move 180.degree.25. The ambulance stretcher of claim 15, wherein said release lever is pivotally attached to said handle.
This invention relates to an emergency stretcher which can be loaded into an emergency vehicle and, more particularly, to such an emergency stretcher with castor wheels.
Emergency stretchers (also known as ambulance stretchers or cots) are specialized stretchers usually used in association with emergency vehicles. The ambulance stretcher is specialized due to it being capable of easy loading into the emergencyvehicle. More specifically, the wheeled base and patient support structure are collapsible as the stretcher is moved into the inside of the emergency vehicle to facilitate ambulance personnel to work on the patient lying on the stretcher in the fairlylimitedU.S. Pat. No. 5,015,024. While this wheel structure is adequate for longitudinal movement of the stretcher, it is inadequate for nonlongitudinal movement of the stretcher. Accordingly, it is desirable to provide a stretcher that has selectivelypivotalheightthiscastchannels. The slide members are bearingless and metal. The track is metal. Oil lubricates the track so that the slide members can slide in the channels. There are some drawbacks associated with this arrangement. First, the structure requireslubrication. The lubricant can escape through the downward openings in the channels. Second, grit and other debris may enter the openings in the channels and be held by the lubricant. The grit may come into contact between the slide members and trackscausing excessive wear. Third, if either the slide member or track becomes worn or damaged, then that entire part must be replaced. Fourth, the channel is enclosed over about 270 degrees and only contacts the slide member over approximately 210degrees. Thus, spaces are created between the slide member and the track. Fifth, due to the need for lubrication and the spaces between the slide member and channel, this stretcher should not be power washed. Power washing removes the lubricant andwater will become trapped in the spaces between the slide member and channel.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTIONfixadjusted.includesthe ambulance stretcher or collapse the legs for insertion into a vehicle. These bushings are replaceable. Bushings contact the channel to support the slide elements and perform a wiping function thereby cleaning the channel.

An ambulance stretchen in FIG. 1, the ambulance stretcher 10 includes a wheeled base 11 releasably supporting a patient litter 12. The base 11 includes a generally horizontalframe 14. A pair of front legs 16 are pivotally and slidably connected to the frame. A pair of rear legs 17 are pivotally connected to the frame rearwardly of the front legs 16. The legs 16, 17 pivot to adjust the height of the frame 14 above theground. A height control mechanism 90 is connected to the frame 14 and the legs 16, 17 to control the pivoting of the legs 16, 17. Castors 313 are connected to the ends of the front legs 16 to improve mobility of the stretcher. A lock assembly 30 isprovided to selectively position the castors 313 in a free swiveling state or in a fixed orientation. When castors 313 are in the swiveling state, the front of the stretcher 10 is easily steered. Castors 393 are connected to the ends of the rear legs17. Castors 393 are always swivelable.
For purposes of this disclosure, the left end of the ambulance stretcher illustrated in FIGS. 1-3 is deemed to be the head end and the right end of the ambulance stretcher is deemed to be the foot end. Movement of the ambulance stretcher 10 tothe left is a forward movement; movement to the right, rearward movement.
The frame 14 includes a longitudinally extending, elongate central support beam 20. A connector 26 is fixed on the head end of the beam 20. Handgrips 23, 24 extend outwardly from the connector 26 perpendicularly to the beam 20. A connector 29is fixed to the foot end of the beam 20. Handgrips 27, 28 extend outwardly from the connector 29 generally perpendicular to the beam 20. Elongate side bar 18 is fixed to the handgrips 23 and 27. Elongate side bar 19 is fixed to the handgrips 24 and28.
A wheel assembly 32 is positioned at the head end of the frame 14. The wheel assembly 32 includes supports 33, 34 respectively fixed to the bars 18, 19 (FIG. 3). The supports 33, 34 extend downwardly adjacent the head ends of the side bars 18,19. The supports 33, 34 rotatably hold an axle 36. A pair of wheels 37 are mounted to opposite ends of the axle 36 adjacent the supports. The wheels 37 contact the floor of an emergency vehicle to |
en | N/A | N/A | Tattoos are often a physical expression of something that a person is passionate about. Nowhere is that more evident than at the Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden! Many of our staff members have artwork on their bodies that represent the animals that have lived here. Read on to find out details about the tattoos that the CZBG Team is excited to show off!
Why did you get a tattoo of this animal/what does this tattoo mean to you?:Donni and his larger-than-life personality. He’s a very confident, charismatic, intelligent and affectionate cat and I knew if I was ever going to get a tattoo, I’d want it to be of him. I got the tattoo of him to celebrate how far I’ve come overcoming hardship in my life and accomplishing my dreams. It’s a look back on where I’ve been and a look forward to what my future holds.Sihil was one of the first cats that I fell in love with at the Cat Ambassador Program. She was a very sweet cat to the people that she would trust but that wasn’t very many people. I always felt honored that she would trust me to be able to take her into some of the crazy programs that we use to do. Someone had captured this picture of her years ago and I always knew that is what I wanted to be tattooed, I just needed to find the right artist. I wanted to be able to take a picture of her with the tattoo but sadly she passed away about 1 month before I could finish the procesantos was an ocelot we hand raised, so I had an immediate bond with him. But Santos is a great reminder of the work we do to be advocates for our animals. Alongside all of the physical necessities we provide for the animals in our care, we are also responsible for their mental growth, stimulation and well-being. Santos has been diagnosed an anxiety disorder, something him and I have in common. I am proud to have worked collaboratively with my team and our Vet staff to come up with the best possible quality of life for him and make adjustments for him to thrive and blossomGe. But, when I was lucky enough to help care for Fiona during her early days, it just seemed right to put a permanent reminder of that amazing, life-changing experience where I could see it every day. It’s actually on my back, but I know it’s there if I want to see it. The first paragraph of this NYT article references my tattoo and the fact that my husband doesn’t like itt was an 8 year idea. I wanted to get a photorealism, black and gray tattoo of some of my favorite animals I’ve worked with over my career. The original idea was to add on to the tattoo as I went through my career but after 8 years and all my favorites I had so far it ended up being a whole tattoo itself. I’ve worked in 4 different departments in my 12 ½ year career; Primate Center and a relief keeper for what was then Nocturnal House, Primate Center keeper, Wildlife Canyon keeper, and now Bird House keeper. (A bird tattoo is in my future.) This tattoo not only highlights my career but also is a memorial for animals that I’ve cared for that have passed on, moved to different locations, or are in different departments than me here at the Cincinnati ZooTommy T was the first baby cheetah that I got to raise. In 2012 we got a chance to run all of our cheetahs for a shoot for National Geographic and Tommy T run that was the last one on the last day ended up being the best shots of the week. He ended up being the centerfoldis based on the centerfold picture. National Geographic and here I was working with them with one of my favorite animals. It was a dream come trueWe got this tattoo together this year! We absolutely love Zoey and her funny floppy ear! We wanted to get a zoo-related tattoo and once we started working and doing the giraffe feedings, we knew that we needed to get our icon, Zoey! This was Raven’s first tattoo!was leading red panda tours in 2019 and early 2020 before the zoo closed for the COVID-19 pandemic when Audra was a baby. I loved her so much and getting to see her was the best part of my day! One day that winter, it snowed really hard and Audra and her sister, Lenore, had a ton of fun romping around in the snow while I was in the yard with them. It is one of my most cherished memories that I’ve made here! She is one of my most favorite animals at the zoo and when we were closed for the pandemic, I missed her so much. To protect each other, and the animals, we divided into teams and we weren’t able to intermix. I spent the summer with the Cheetah team which was awesome but I didn’t get to visit with Audra. I got my Audra tattoo in the summer of 2020 to celebrate our reopening and getting to see her againorking with John has provided me with the biggest challenges and the most rewarding experiences of my zookeeping career. Watching him grow and change over the 10 years he’s been at our zoo and seeing him develop into this amazing confident cat when he started out so unsure of himself has been beautiful to witness and inspirational. I have loved developing a relationship with him and being able to communicate with him through training. Building trust has been so magical and is everything I had hoped for when I became a zoo keeper. I love watching our guests be “wowed” by John. He’s magnificent and special and also funny and ridiculous in so many ways. I have truly loved being his keeper and cherish every day that I’ve gotten to be a part of his life. 😊 It’s a geometric representation of his nose and it includes his whisker spots from his identification row (his top row) of whiskers. The identification row (when compared with the second row, or the reference row) is entirely unique to each lion just like our finger prints. So this is John lion’s whisker pattern of his identification row.

Her life was her fabric. She sewed my wardrobe when I would rather have had a store bought dress. "My mother gave 12-years -old," Mom had said. "It was second-hand, but I loved it." She'd told me the story at least a hundred times. I was the oldest child. I knew her best and longest of all her children — her every habit. I knew the extended family members she spoke of often who gradually began to move or pass away, many before my younger siblings were born. What could she possibly say in all those smudged and tattered pages?
Then one day, for some reason, I opened the smallest diary. A little, dark blue book. It was dated 1946. There were only a handful of entries. She was twenty-one years old, not yet a wife or mother. "I didn't do much in the morning, but in the afternoon I went down to our new store Benjamin Franklin. At the remn [she left room to complete this word, I suppose to find the correct spelling of "remnant," but never did] shop, I bought two pieces of material for blouses and one for a dress. In the evening I started a dress. I've had the material for some time. [A pinked swatch of the lightweight wool navy and white gingham print fabric was glued to the corner of the small yellowed page.] Barbara called up again, but Phil [Mom's brother] was gone…She said she just had to see him and she would do anything if he would like her."

en | N/A | N/A | TThe course itself is amazing. It’s held on a closed circuit and the road is extremely wide and smooth. It has two 180-degree turns at either end of the course, both of which are safe, slow, and easy to navigate no matter how many people are taking the turn.
The best thing about Rosena Ranch is the difficulty–not technical difficulty, but the physical challenge of the course. I have never seen this race end in a bunch sprint in any category because the course always rewards initiative and suffering. Sometimes the break goes on the first lap, sometimes on the second or third, but never much later than that, and once the break goes it’s impossible to bring back because there’s not that big of an advantage riding in the peloton.
Rosena Ranch is really important to our race calendar because it is so different from the crit offerings that fill up most of the year. It’s one of the very few races where you actually have the combined effects of course, tactics, topography, a little climbing, and a little sprinting all rolled up into one event. If you don’t get smart and/or lucky with each one of those parameters, it’s almost impossible to do well. In short, it’s bike racing.

JP Morgan Chase was out bright and early with its third quarter earnings Thursday morning to expectations on the street that ranged from "not that great" to "less than great." The bank beat the analyst consensus, reporting a quarterly profit of $1.02 per share, over the 98 cents per share that was expected. Net income fell from a year ago to $4.3 billion, however, and revenue was flat. The bank's CEO James Dimon said that a weak investment banking business and a shaky economy in Europe were the largest headwinds after what has been a turbulent summer to say the least. Shares for JP Morgan were down 3% at $32.20 after the opening bell, dragging down other bank stocks with it. Goldman Sachs was down 1.6%, Wells Fargo and Citigroup were both down more than 2% and Bank of America was down almost 3%.

en | N/A | N/A | Malaysia, Indonesia continue to head growth in consumer tech markets
By Digital News Asia | May 30, 2012
Biggest growth seen in telco market in Malaysia
IT sector records positive growth across all markets
MALAYSIA and Indonesia were the two key growth markets across South-East Asia, registering strong first quarter growth in the Technical Consumer Goods (TCG) market, says market research firm GfK.
Malaysia and Indonesia reported 32% and 15% value growth respectively over the same period last year, it says in a statement.
TCG includes consumer electronics (TV, camcorder, audio home system); small and large domestic appliances, digital cameras and IT equipment and others.
Malaysia’s excellent showing in the first three months of this year was driven largely by its Telecommunications, Office, Major Domestic Appliances (MDA) and Information Technology sectors which all expanded in values of between 24% and 62%.
In Indonesia, it was the IT, Consumer Electronic and MDA sectors that showed substantial increase in revenue sales of 18% to 31%.
“Five of the seven sectors managed double-digit increases to maintain the country’s position at the top of the quarterly growth leaderboard in the region,” he adds. “The second-fastest growing market, Indonesia, also managed to retain its ranking from the last quarter.”
While the IT sector, which turned in consistent positive results ranging from 4% to 33% value growth across all the countries, it was Telco which saw growth rates soaring as high as 50% and 62%, as posted by the Singaporean and Malaysian markets.
Office Equipment and Consumables in Malaysia also reported an impressive 54% sales value increment, says GfK.
“The mounting consumer demand for these devices performance of the TCG in the emerging markets of South-East Asia,” he adds. |
en | N/A | N/A | Box Office: Shrek Sees Green, according to the studio.
Toy Story 2, which debuted over the Thanksgiving 1999 holiday with $57.4 million, still holds the debut record for an animated film.
DreamWorks' head of distribution, Jim Tharp, tells Mr. Showbiz that the studio is delighted with the debut, adding that it has far exceeded their more modest estimates of a $30 million to $35 million opening.
He credited the great reviews the fractured fairy tale has received, along with the promotions that its vocal stars (Myers, Diaz, Eddie Murphy, and John Lithgow) have done for the film. He declined to comment on the odds of it being in the running for the Academy Awards' new Best Animated Feature Oscarear's ceremony.
Shrek's impressive bow is no doubt also due to its having opened on 3,587 screens, just shy of Mission: Impossible 2's screen count of 3,653 last summer.
Lopez Offers 'Counterprogramming,' Moulin Rouge Packs Them In
Also new this weekend was the ethereal romance Angel Eyes, starring Jennifer Lopez as a city cop and Jim Caviezel as a mysterious stranger who saves her life9.5 million. At the film's press junket, director Luis Mandoki admitted that he considered the film to be "counterprogramming" to the bigger summer releases.
In limited release, Moulin Rouge, Baz Luhrmann's bold attempt to revive the Hollywood musical, took in $165,086 from two screens, which works out to a jaw-dropping $82,543 screen average. Shrek's per-screen average, by comparison, was a still-healthy $11,737. The lushly photographed Moulin Rouge, which stars Nicole Kidman as a Parisian courtesan, opens nationwide June 1.

en | N/A | N/A | The collapse of the TerraUSD stablecoin this month is reverberating throughout the cryptocurrency world at a time when the market capitalization of Bitcoin and other digital currencies has fallen by about 65 percent from a peak of $3 trillion in November.
heightened volatility is nothing new to the cryptocurrency market, the sudden plunge in Terra carries implications for the financial system. The reason: Stablecoins are considered integral parts of “DeFi” – decentralized finance – that are designed
Terra was-pegged on May 9, when Luna – a cryptocurrency that backed it – collapsed to nearly zero. At its peak, Luna was worth $40 billion and supported $18 billion of Terra.
The debaclstablecoins could pose a threat to the financial system. At this juncture, this seems unlikely considering that they are only a small fraction of U.S. financial assets.
Others favor increased regulation of cryptocurrencies and disclosure requirements so that purchasers can be protected against fraud. For example, stablecoins would have to disclose which assets back them, where they are held and who owns them.
Still others would ban cryptocurrencies altogether. But as The Economist notes, “a draconian crackdown would put at risk the benefits that crypto eventually promises.” They include new financial products that bypass banks, innovations in property rights and the possibility of a less centralized financial system.
these issues will be debated for years to come, this is a good time for investors to review the experience in 2008 and to glean lessons from it
As Michael del Castillo of Forbes observes, crypto’s history has been defined by five resets — in 2014, 2016, 2018, 2020 and today. He finds that “each reset not only led to price-market” Del Castillo believes the current reset may be the most important test.
One reason for optimism by crypto enthusiasts is that Tether – the largest stablecoin that is hosted on the Bitcoin and Ethereum blockchains and which claims to have adequate dollar reserves – quickly recovered near its parity of $1 after briefly dropping to 95 cents. But a Barclays strategist has warned that it could be vulnerable if holders rush to sell it, and that this would have an even greater impact than Terra’s collapse.
what would happen if yields on Treasuries were to rise to 4 percent to 5 percent next year. Why would an investor prefer to hold a crypto asset that has no backing, yields nothing and is highly volatile?
Second, the main appeal of cryptocurrencies is for traders (or gamblers) who believe they can make money by taking advantage of their high volatility. But many people who own crypto assets do not understand how they are created or how to trade them successfully.
The challenge for investment professionals is that there is no way to compute the intrinsic value of crypto assets. During an annual shareholder meeting, Warren Buffett remarkedIn short, cryptocurrencies ultimatelyeir price can change on a dime.
Third, claims that cryptocurrencies are a good inflation hedge because their quantities are constrained are unsubstantiated. They were asserted during a period of low inflation when there was no way to validate them. But since inflation took off in the second half of last year, cryptocurrencies have all plummeted in value.
claims that cryptocurrencies will supplant the U.S. dollar are also far-fetched. Advocates such as Jack Dorsey believe skeptics do not understand what makes cryptocurrencies desirable. But they appear clueless about why the U.S. dollar has been the world’s premier currency throughout the post-World War II era.
As I have noted in a previous commentary, the U.S. was widely viewed as a safe haven after the war and there was a global shortage of dollars in the 1950s. The eurocurrency market took off in the early 1960s when he U.S. gET) and the dollar increasingly was used as a unit of account outside the U.S.
The main challenge to the occurred in the 1970s, when U.S. inflation surgar weakened against the key currencies, and the issue of whether the dollar could retain its status was debated in official circles. The dollar then rebounded in the first half of the 1980s wto record levels to rein in inflation.
Putin’s terror in Ukraine is not random: It’s strategy Cot’s Congress’ turn
Today, as the Fed once again has recognized the urgency of bringing inflation under control, the U.S. dollar has risen to 20-year highs against both the Euro and the Japanese yen. It has also been the best performing investment vehicle this year while financial assets and digital currencies have suffered steep declines.
In light of all that has happened this year, it’s time for the most ardent crypto enthusiasts to finally give the dollar its due “”

en | N/A | N/A | World governing body Giant Sepp Blatter's pulled in the 'ethics committee' with his fairy-tale cry of 'FIFA-fo-fum, I smell the blood of a Tahitian.'
Yes, one of the (possibly) guilty men who FIFA have suspended is from that hot-bed of footballing fervour, Tahiti. Ta-fecking-hiti. I mean I’m all for everyone having a say, but even Wigan Athletic haven’t tracked down the Tahitian Maradona yet, so I doubt there is one. I’d be all for some grass-skirted woman’s footy team, mind.....
Sorry drifted off there...
The other fella was Nigerian. That round-robin e-mail entitled WORLD CUP VOTE FOR SALE was not the wisest idea. Although there’s bound to be some provincial town council that’s fallen for it and lost ten grand on the deal.
The latest spat with the Russians is just marvellous. Some bloke called the England 2018 bid “absolutely primitive" and "comical". Which would be fine if he was describing our centre-forward.
Now I’m not the sort of shaven-headed twat who tattoos the Union Jack on his arse and whose greatest desire would be to go down on our beloved Queen but I do take a big slab of umbrage when someone starts slagging off our attempt to host the greatest sporting tournament there is.
There were also some references to the fact that all our young people get hammered, and violent, and the country is uncivilized. Which made me want to find the bastard and tip my pint over his head.
I’ve seen enough about Russia on the telly to know that when it comes to getting pissed on clear liquids which are indistinguishable from meths your Russian fella takes some beating. I mean for Chrissakes they elected the biggest pisshead in world politics as their leader. Yeltsin! Why would anyone choose to have a bumbling white-haired numpty in charge? If you’re a Londoner you will be able to answer this question.
Of course Putin’s appeared in public looking more orange than a Teesside beauty on a Friday night cos it appears he’s covering up a massive shiner. Lovely David Cameron would never appear in public-looking like that (unless perhaps I happened across him).
Oh and we have, apparently, got a problem in this country with racism. This is a Russian talking. From Russia, that bastion of political correctness. I mean I know for a fact that Joe Stalin had an enormous back-catalogue of early Malian music and was a devotee of Gujurati cooking.
Me, I hope England do win the race. But there’s one thing counting against us. (Apart from, obviously, that the streets of our cities are rife with criminals, drunks and Neanderthals). England is the perfect bail-out country should the wheels come off when Russia or whoever gets the bid.
Meanwhile, the citizens of Teesside are eagerly awaiting Tony Mowbray’s first game in charge at the Riverside. Mowbray’s promised to give the players he didn’t pick much at Celtic a fair crack at the whip. Don’t fret, Tony, pet. They’ve not been up to much so far.
But even if the downward spiral continues I don’t think we’ll be getting on Tony’s back too much. He’s Boro through and through. His Dad was a steelworker, he can still smell the Bovril from his time on the Ayresome terraces. It’s not in the nature of a Teessider to get too sentimental about owt, but having a bloke in the manager’s chair who grew up watching the club does make you want to embrace the man in a butch and purely platonic way.
Sousa did his best, but Swiss defender Bruno Berner’s suggested that the Portuguese had them playing too much 4-3-3 and maybe ‘passing the ball a bit too much’. Ah, Bruno. Two years you’ve been here and you’re already thinking like an Englishman.

en | N/A | N/A | in relation to operating performance
Our client is the largest natural stone producer in Austria. The company operates seven granite quarries which mostly supply the Austrian B2B sector.
For a number of years, the company operated at a loss. This was due, largely, to outdated production facilities with high downtime and maintenance costs, inadequate performance controls and a lack of quality management. Production planning was also very rudimentary.
Escalating quality problems and delays to deliveries led to a loss of customers and the inevitable impact on the company’s financial position.
Achieve a rapid turnaround and bring the company back to profitability
Ensure insolvency proceedings and refinancing of the company are successful
Rationalise the product portfolio
Design and implement a process-oriented organization
Implement range of control measures and structured approach to continuous improvement
Successfully rebrand the company
With the business under threat of closure, Syngroup provided an senior interim-manager who was able to guide our client through the insolvency process and also supported our client during discussions with banks and finance houses. With financing and debt rescheduling resolved, the banks imposed a range of restructuring measures which were incorporated into the recovery plan.
We focused initially on an organisation re-design with the objective of moving our client to a ‘process-organisation’. The benefits that came from this included increased responsiveness and better collaboration across functions. Tangible benefits included a reduction in order throughput time of between 20-40 %.
With a history of quality issues, a Quality Acceptance and Control process was implemented. Improvements to quality appeared relatively quickly and the outcome of the implementation was an 80% reduction in quality-related complaints.
The sales process was tightened up significantly with the introduction of targets and regular review of the sales pipeline.
In production, lead times and set-up times were optimised and and maintenance cycles were planned in order to increase capacity utilisation and efficiency.
Detailed make or buy decisions led to the partial outsourcing of individual production steps.
The product portfolio was reduced on the basis of profitability and the loss-making part of the business was closed-down.
Controls were put in place alongside a performance management process to provide focus and ensure that improvements would continue to be made. |

The last might seem like a strange combination, but I have killed prairie dogs at over 500 yards with it--mostly as a test, because the main thing I wanted it for was a low-light whitetail scope for longer-than-woods ranges. This was easier to do than you might guess, however, because the bottom part of the post is actually two wires, separated by a little bit, and at longer ranges you can see a prairie dog between them. The crosshairs-with-dots reticle is a better choice for longer-range shooting, however. |

en | N/A | N/A | This Month: What is Hyper-V Virtualization?
SQL server. This month we will explain Hyper-V virtualization.
Hyper-V is a Microsoft productthrough virtual computer environments, hosting and managing multiple servers or operating systems on a single computer. These virtual machines differ from cloud computing because they do not deliver computer sharing services via the internet. Instead, the server is actually manipulated. Many businesses use both Hyper-V and cloud computing together to operate as efficiently as possible.
In the past, Hyper-V was too expensive for most businesses to implement. Today, it’s not only an affordable option – it can be vital to the success of your company. In fact, implementing Hyper-V can actually make your hardware investments go further by consolidating more of the computing demands.
B-Co that has the in-house expertise to help your company implement Hyper-V virtualization. We can help identify the right edition and features of Hyper-V to support your internal needs. The goal is to make your company as streamlined as possible. To learn more about support for Hyper-V. |

en | N/A | N/A | METHODS In total, 223 underage youth aged 15-17 years were interviewed.
RESULTS: Overall, about half of the participants reported illegal commercial purchase, either direct or by underage peer, in on- (49.3%) and/or off-premise (48.0%) contexts. Off-premise purchase by proxy of legal age (30.5%; excluding shoulder-tapping), social supply off-premise (i.e. receiving/exchanging alcohol; 26.5%) and direct purchases in on- (13.9%) and off-premise (11.2%) contexts were the most recurrent primary modes of access. Significant associations of direct purchases with frequency of consumption and perceived alcohol availability were recorded. Associations between primary and alternative ways to access alcohol, in particular, between on-premise modes, were also evidenced.
CONCLUSION: Providing an overview of the context of underage alcohol access in Switzerland and an indirect view of youth perceptions of limitations of existing structural measures has identified particularly the need for enforcement of existing legislation. |

The blade of the knife can be either smooth, sharp or serrated saw-tooth edge and sharp. Slicing knife is used mostly for cutting meat, fish, poultry, bread and soft vegetables such as tomatoes. A utility knife is a good all-round knife used for cutting tender vegetables, cheese, trimming fat from meat and the pairing knife is the smallest of all the knives and used for peeling, trimming and cutting eyes out of vegetables.
Shears or scissors can be used for preparing cleaning fish and poultry but they are heavier than the ordinary kitchen scissors. They are used to cut through poultry, trim off fins and gills of fish and for cutting through bones of the fish.

en | N/A | N/A | I love this exchange between Jesus and the man with leprosy for several reasons. First, the man who was suffering had more faith in the One who stood before him, than fear of the repercussions for being out among people as a leper. Second, he recognized the authority of Christ as he bowed before Him, and asked if He might be willing to heal him. Jesus met the man's faith and humility with mercy and grace, as He did the unthinkable. Jesus touched the untouchable as He healed him. No one was allowed near lepers, let alone to touch them, so it had likely been a very long time since the man who was suffering had experienced direct human contact. Not only was he extended kindness and listened to as he made his request before Jesus, but he was answered in a way that was meant to help his heart as well as his body. Jesus knows our needs far better than we do. When we come before Him with our requests, He often answers in ways we would not have ever imagined. His goodness and grace are far greater than every need we bring before Him. May we ever seek the Lord, and let Him know our places of need, for He is faithful to answer as we ask. |

en | N/A | N/A | Is “depressing, but in a good way” a thing? If it is, then I’d use that to describe my stay at TUVE in Hong Kong’s Tin Hau district. From the moment I opened the heavy, oxidized metal front gate and stepped inside the monolith-like building that houses TUVE, a sense of gloom fell over me. The result of a perfectly balanced combination of subtle sandalwood smell, soothing music, and ambient lighting that offer a sharp contrast with the city’s chaos outside.
The dimly-lit lobby is located on the first floor and consists of nothing more than a huge table on a white marble floor. Service was friendly, but cool – something that actually perfectly fits in a place like this and only adds to its character. Throughout the building, raw, monochrome materials predominate: a harmonious mix of concrete, black and white marble, wood and oxidized metal sets the mood.
TUVE’s design is based on a photography project by the Danish landscape photographer Kim Høltermand, who shot a set of misty scenes and gloomy silhouettes at a Swedish lake bearing the same name. The founding team behind the hotel approached Hong Kong design studio Design Systems to translate the mood of these pictures into a hotel – something they successfully did. The rooms are utilitarian, with every piece of furniture having a clear place and function.
Decorations are nonexistent, except for a few hand-painted gold specks on the wall. Despite the raw materials and the moody colors, the rooms feel surprisingly homey thanks to the extremely comfortable bed.
Less is more at TUVE, but they managed to add an extra touch in the areas where more actually matters. The minibar, for example, is not stocked with your usual dime-a-dozen range of drinks but features a carefully curated set of high-quality gourmet snacks and beverages. You’ll find a bottle of Antipodes water (the perfect prop for your Instagram #flatlay), Potocki vodka, and Fevertree tonic to name a few. The bathroom, too, is decked out with stuff we love: body lotion, shower gel, and shampoo are provided by the American brand Fresh.
TUVE is luxurious in its simplicity and eye for detail but is missing some of the’s no gym, nor is there a swimming pool and breakfast area – so we’d only recommend the place if you’re planning to explore the city and not lounge around in the hotel all day.
Each room is decked out with a smartphone to use throughout your stay. Use it as a pocket-wifi device when exploring the city.
Rates don’t include breakfast, so opt for a local breakfast at one of the cha chaan tengs (Hong Kong style cafes) around.
The hotel is a social media darling, so be prepared to stumble into a lot of Instagram photo shoots in front of the building. |

Cleaning your house clean not only keeps everything in order, but it also ensures that it’s hygienic.
Exposure to germs hinders our immune system and causes us to become sick.

Because the air isn’t being regulated, it gets contaminated with germs and bacteria thatIndoor air quality can be impacted by the accumulation of mildew, dust bunnies, and animal dander.
The easiest way to prevent the accumulation of dirt and dust is to vacuum the floor and all the upholstery regularly. Find Vacuuming the carpet isn’t enough, put on the smaller attachments and vacuum the couches, cushions, ends of drapes, etc. The more dirt you collect from around the house, the cleaner your air will be.
Did you know that clutter is known to stimulate stress? And having dirt around the house only makes it worse. You’ll feel much better about going to bed on fresh sheets and waking up to a neat and clean home.

en | N/A | N/A | Demonstration of Horses for Mrs. Eddy
In the spring of 1904, the demand came to me to aid in furnishing our Leader with a pair of horses for her personal use. The following events chronicle my effort to fulfill this sacred mission from the standpoint of my best demonstrating knowledge.
At least two committees had been appointed in the country to search for horses, but neither was able to locate what was needed. Later, a Christian Scientist in the south sent a pair from Paris, Kentucky, but they, too, were unsuitable.
The Boston Journal reported the horses from Kentucky as follows: “Mrs. Mary Baker Eddy would not have the finest pair of carriage horses in America. She said when she looked such a pair over, ‘They are a pair of devils sent to kill me.’ The team had been selected by J. M. Osborne of Paris, Ky., who had instructions to buy the best team of carriage horses in the United States. Mrs. Eddy made the expression, quoted in a letter to T. L. L. Temple of Texarkana, Ark., who had sent her the team as a gift. The team consisted of the blue ribbon winners Tattersal and Eckersall. They cost Mr. Temple $10,000, and Mr. Osborne accompanied the horses to the home of Mrs. Eddy, and tried to persuade her to ride behind them. They remained in her stables but a few days, when he had them shipped back to the donor, and Mr. Temple is using them on his carriage.”
Naturally, the question arises, why Mrs. Eddy wrote to Mr. Temple and told him that these valuable horses had een sent as a pair of devils to kill her. Certainly, such a fiery message sounds ungrateful as a reply to a donor of such an expensive gift. Therefore, some explanation is necessary.
Mrs. Eddy knew, that whatever was not the expression of scientific demonstration was the expression of mortal mind, and that whatever proceeded from mortal mind had, for its purpose, the destruction of everything that was of a spiritual nature. But why did she say that the horses had been sent to kill her? As she grew in spiritual understanding, the balance on the side of God constantly increased, until she was so dependent on her spiritual nature for support, that to have lost it, would have meant her passing on. One must never believe, that she thought that animal magnetism was attempting to take away her human sense of life. The disturbance and fear which tempted her, resulted from her knowledge that the only sense of life that maintained her being in this world, was what she demonstrated spiritually. Hence, to rob her of God would be as effectual in destroying her life, as would be a knife plunged into her heart. At this point, it is well to remember that she desired to remain on earth for no other purpose than to establish the Cause of Christian Science on a firm basis, and to keep revising the textbook, Science and Health.
When one’s material sense of life constitutes the majority of one’s consciousness of existence, and the spiritual sense, the minority, that spiritual sense could be temporarily smothered without the individual losing his consciousness of existence. A materially-minded individual, with only a small degree of spirituality, hardly realizes when that spirituality is submerged by his human sense, whereas, when, through a life of devotion to the service of God, one reaches a place where the spiritual consciousness of existence constitutes the majority of being, then the human sense of life becomes so attenuated, that it would never sustain that one if the spiritual consciousness were darkened. Therefore, all that would be needed to kill such a one, would be to draw a shade over this spiritual sense; because this modus operandi would be as disastrous as would be a dose of poison, if that spiritually-minded one did not have an adequate and sure protection from such wiles of the devil.
No doubt a lack of demonstration was back of the gift of these thoroughbreds, and a lack of demonstration means a gift from which the poison of mortal belief has not been extracted. Mrs. Eddy was, therefore, sufficiently awake spiritually, to detect in this incident the wolf in sheep’s clothing. She recognized mortal belief and pride as the greatest enemies of spirituality, because their underlying effect, when accepted, is always to take away the life-preserver of the spiritually-minded, without which such a one would sink.
After becoming acquainted with the efforts to get horses for Mrs. Eddy, and with the fruitless search of the several committees, I spent thirty days interviewing owners of sales-stables and also, the gypsies, who were apt to have the finest horses for sale in those days. This quest availed me nothing.
Then, one morning, I realized that I had spent thirty days fruitlessly, and that, at any time, the need might appear, since Mr. August Mann, who had charge of her horses, had predicted that the day would soon arrive when Mrs. Eddy would say to him, “We cannot take our drive behind these horses any longer.” The daily drive, which meant so much to Mrs. Eddy’s peace of mind, because it furnished an antidote for the lie that she was dead, which was then being so persistently circulated, might have to be abandoned, if he was not prepared with a fresh team.
I proceeded, therefore, to wake myself up mentally, by realizing that God has a pair of horses for this dear one who loves and trusts Him, and who has sacrificed her human all in the effort to establish His kingdom on earth. I then declared that it was time my dull eyes were opened to see this fact manifested. It was not my thought that God had two material horses to send to Mrs. Eddy, but that the divine Mind, not interfered with, would be manifested through man in meeting man’s every need, when the darkness of human limitation was successfully lifted.
On the way to my office, I saw a pair of horses harnessed to a carriage. I recognized those horses as the manifestation of my demonstration for our Leader, as plainly as if I had raised them from colts.
Approaching the driver, I found that they belonged to a wealthy business man. I made an appointment to see this man, although he assured me by telephone that there was no possibility of his selling them. In my talk with him, however, I told him that there was a lady in New Hampshire who needed a pair of gentle horses and that, if he would let her have them, he could replace them, within the day, with a pair that would suit his need. When I left his house, I was the owner of this team, the names of which were Princess and Dolly. The bill of sale was dated April 5, 1904.
At once, I notified Mr. Mann that I had purchased the horses, and he took the 5:45 train from Concord the next morning. He drove the horses, passed on them as acceptable and returned at once, in order that he might take Mrs. Eddy, as usual, on her drive that afternoon. Soon I arranged for a freight car, and loaded the horses into it, with a colored boy to look after them all the way on their journey.
The very day after the horses reached Pleasant View, one of the old span again misbehaved. Mrs. Eddy said to Mr. Mann, “I cannot drive with these horses any longer; do you know where I can get another pair?” He replied, “Yes, Mother; they are in the stable.” Mrs. Eddy, however, would not drive behind these horses, nor even look at them, until I had been sent for, in order to tell her the whole story of how I procured them for her. When I had finished, she said, “Then you demonstrated them?” I said, “Yes, Mother.” She replied, “Then I can keep them.” She recognized that in the transaction I had fulfilled the teaching of Christian Science. When man is in need, the human method is to search, until one has found what it is that he needs, but divine metaphysics demands, that man establish in thought the realization that now man’s every need is met, since man is the offspring of the divine Principle, Love. This mental conviction then serves to make manifest that which is already permanent in Mind.
I was greatly impressed by this demand on her part to watch that everything in her experience was the result of demonstration. In this particular instance, when she detected in it the presence of God’s loving hand, she accepted the horses without even having seen them or tried them. This incident furnished me with the keynote of the whole spiritual mode of her thought. I consider this in Christian Science; for I realized that Mrs. Eddy would accept anything that was done by her students, provided it was the result of demonstration. That always satisfied her. I saw her rebukes were never personal, but were always aimed at a lack of demonstration. There was nothing too drastic for her to say in condemnation of the use of the human mind, human opinion, and human will when substituted for the divine Mind and the divine wisdom. On the other hand, when she found a student willing to strip himself of all human aid, in order to let the Spirit of God animate and work through him, she commended that, because she recognized in it the extension of the very revelation that she was establishing.
Mrs. Eddy wrote the following letter in thanks for the pair of horses:
Mr. Gilbert C. Carpenter
Beloved Student:
I am told by Mr. Mann and Mr. Frye that you have made the gift to me of one of the finest spans of horses I ever owned. I did not look for such largess! It seemed enough that you should search and find them for me. I feel bankrupt in thanks. Words cannot express my gratitude to you. It is the dearest, the best, the most needed gift I ever received. What shall I do to repay you? I can only say, call on me in an hour of need and I will try to help thee. Give my love to Mrs. Carpenter. I deeply enjoyed my few minutes with you both.
Ever gratefully, lovingly, your leader
In reply I wrote as follows:
Beloved Leader:
Your letter of May 10th reached me today. Its tender sentiments with the offer of a sheltering harbor if my faith should fail, more than compensates for the little the foresight of your household has put in my way to do for you. Should I devote my life and all my substance to help make your life more comfortable during its earthly sojourn, I should still be your debtor. My week’s stay at Pleasant View taught me more practical Christian Science than is accorded to most of humanity and for this I desire to return thanks. That you should have taken your priceless time to have seen us personally has touched me deeply and will never be forgotten, but only makes the demands more imperative to demonstrate more of Christian Science.
Gilbert C. Carpenter
During the summer, I purchased from Mrs. Eddy the old pair of horses and an automobile which she desired to dispose of. I now hold Mrs. Eddy’s receipt for these which was sent to me with the following letter:
Mr. Gilbert C. Carpenter,
Mrs. Eddy, our beloved Leader, desires to thank you most heartily for finding a sale for her horses and automobile. She sends herewith her receipt for the check you so kindly sent to her. And, after making the sale, she desires to pay you for your trouble in doing so. She says that she considers you one of the watchmen on the walls of Christian Science. She sends much love to you and Mrs. C.
C.A. Frye
I sold the automobile, a Yale by name, to a gentleman in Providence. There appeared in the Providence Journal of October 22, 1904, a picture of this machine, as figuring in an incident that caused the loss of the election as Governor of the Democratic nominee. I speak of this matter because, under the automobile, was the amusing title, The Democratic Spellbinding Automobile.
After returning home from Pleasant View, I had the opportunity to recommend as a coachman for Mrs. Eddy, one of my patients, who had been a minister of the gospel. I speak of this, because of the two following letters which she wrote to him in regard to the two horses I had given her. These were written during the year 1908 while our Leader lived at Chestnut Hill.
If you treat either of our horses for the fear of an automobile it will help them just as it heals the sick, by destroying their fear. Horses are nearly as receptive of the effects from C. S. treatment as human beings are. In haste.
M.B.G. Eddy
You do all that you do so well I need not request anything further. But I noticed today that the spirit of Dolly so increased that it may give me some anxiety, for I rest on her to guard against Princess’ spirits. So please keep Dolly calm and all will go on as it has done — well.
What can we deduce from these two letters to Mr. Stevenson? I have already pointed out Mrs. Eddy’s insistence that everything in her experience be demonstrated.
This was the high standard that she set both for herself and others. The mental state in which her students saw her in the home, which might be construed by some to be evidence of fussiness or over-punctiliousness about little things, was really prompted by her perception of a lack of demonstration in her students. I have reiterated that what most disturbed her was the evidence, on the part of the students, that they had relaxed into a state of human ease, which was to her as dangerous as resting on one’s oars, while the tide was carrying one out to sea. In these two letters, we find further evidence that Mrs. Eddy considered everything in her experience, if it was the expression of the human mind, as a possible channel for animal magnetism, unless the demonstration was made to see God back of it. Hence, she was never satisfied, until the demonstration had been made to replace the human cause with the divine. Her mental sense of security, which left her free to employ her thought to the bringing of divine revelation to mankind, came only as she considered all the channels in her home as having been placed under the domination and control of infinite good. She included even her horses in this regime.
A needful lesson is the foregoing for those students who might fancy that healing the sick, or meeting a sense of lack or sin, constitutes the majority of their effort in Christian Science, when before them lies the magnificent opportunity of placing everything under the dominion of good.
The old saying, that you can catch more flies with molasses than you can with vinegar, suggests itself quite appropriately at this point. Yet the flies drown in one as quickly as in the other. All of mortal experience classifies itself under the head of what seems evil from the human standpoint and what seems good. Both will smother man’s spiritual aspirations if permitted to do so, but the good side is more dangerous because it seems attractive. Hence, the student must outgrow that narrow conception which reserves the power of God for destroying the unpleasant side of mortal experience. Pre-eminent for the guidance of the students is the example of our Leader, who once said in the home, “Error cannot get into the kingdom, so we must divest ourselves of it. We must hold with God alone. What I am teaching is the spiritual; the material fights it and I fight the material; it will do it to you; the more spiritual the thought, the more you will be fought. That which takes the place of God, and creates men and women, and sees everything material, will fight the spiritual. We must see everything spiritual.” |

en | N/A | N/A | Since the economies of seafaring nations was tied to ocean-based commerce, their respective navies began collecting oceanic statistics which included the rise and fall of tides by the use of "tide gauges". An unexpected observation was that sea levels were (on average) always rising over time.
The earliest European measurements began in 1675 Holland
Measurements between 1870 and 2004 indicated a rise of 19.5 cm (7.6 inches) which can be averaged to 1.45 mm per year
Western countries been launching weather satellites with down-looking RADAR starting in the early 1990s
Measurements between 1992 and 2002 (10-years) set average sea level rise to 3.4 mm per year
"distance over time" is labelled velocity.
An increasing velocity is known as acceleration.
Since the rate-of-rise (velocity) is increasing then it can be said that sea level rise is accelerating
Ignoring acceleration for a moment, let's assume a steady velocity of 3.9 mm per year. Simple math shows that the absolute minimum rise over the next 100 years will be 390 mm (39 cm or 15.3 inches) higher than now.
Note that sea level is measured vertically. Since most shore lines and beaches are angled like ramps, high tides and storm surges will do more damage sooner. |

Galaxy Note 8 Selfie Sticks, Galaxy Note 8’s Shield Umbrella
Got your own personal Galaxy Note 8? Congratulations! Now you might be torn involving wanting to show off your “precious” on the planet and tucking it safely absent from sticky fingers and, perfectly, any hurt. The nice news is the fact that you can find a lot (and we suggest lots) of knights in shining armor ready to avail themselves to youor a price tag, needless to say. During the weeks considering the fact that Steve Jobs 1st revealed the Galaxy Note 8, dozens of new Galaxy Note 8 Selfie Sticks are already announced.
You are going to uncover the typical gamers included in this article: , Belkin, Griffin, iLuv, OtterBox, and so on. Though numerous of such Galaxy Note 8 Selfie Sticks are variants to the same theme, you’ll find, obviously, some standoutsf for no other purpose than their weirdness. They Selfie Sticks a broad vary of tastes from very (Selfie Sticks-Mate’s Dulce) to manly (Cygnett’s WorkMate) to trendy (Grove’s Bamboo Selfie Sticks) to just plain MOTO G6 Cases Amazon odd (Perpetual Kid’s UnderSelfie Sticks Stealth Cellular phone Selfie Sticks).
Speck equipped Selfie Sticks. We generally truly such as the design and style and suit of Speck Fitted collection, which pairs a fabric rear surface which has a tricky plastic two-piece shell. The one Speck offering inside the Selfie Sticks program incorporates a gray and black Tartan Plaid pattern; the sole cause we lean absent from it’s which the button Selfie Sticksage is admittedly weak by comparison along with the Selfie Sticks listed aboveheye basically all exposednd the Selfie Sticks holes don have any ability to expand due to the tricky plastic. However the fabrics Speck chooses are generally actually nice, as shown within the variation wee Selfie Sticksed currently, and use a matte complete.
InSelfie Sticks snap Selfie Sticks for Galaxy Note 8 Selfie Sticks. this is often InSelfie Sticks consider about the seriously overpopulated imple thin shell?genre, which is only appealing due for the straightforward, cleanse design. The Galaxy Note 8 edition is shown below in very clear, MOTO G6 Cases Amazon and arrives packaged with a plastic different online video stand; it gives incredibly limited major and bottom security, without having front protection and open facet buttons. offering this one particular in smoke or distinct colors, the only Selfie Sticks with two versionseither will be the extra deluxe Perforated layout we liked and featured in our Galaxy Note 8/Galaxy Note 8 book 5 earlier this 12 months.
Belkin Shield Micra for Wholesale Electronics – Galaxy Note 8. Shield Micra is definitely the only Selfie Sticks during the bunch that we don know considerably about, aside from the pictures on Belkin sitehe business has experienced some tough patches with Selfie Sticks wee noticed in latest decades. This one seems to get open buttons, but whether it created from semi-soft TPU plastic or simply a harder materials is unclear; there would likely be button Selfie Sticks if it was designed from TPU.

en | N/A | N/A | Home » Breaking News » AEOS admin headache highlighted in Teagasc survey
9:00 am - November 9, 2013
Teagasc environmental economist Mary Ryan outlined the results of a survey of some 1,000 farmers carried out by the state agency in 2012 at this week’s The survey found that 47 per cent of farmers in REPS/AEOS schemes were involved in cattle rearing, while only 19 per cent of the farmers in the schemes were in dairy. Of those farmers who were never in an agri-environmental scheme 39 per cent were in cattle rearing and 21 per cent were dairy farmers.
The survey found there was no major difference between farmer involvement in agri-environmental schemes and soil type. Farm size was found to be a determinant on whether farmers were in an agri-environmental scheme or not. It also found that farmers with farms between 50 to 150 ha were more likely to be in the schemes than much smaller or much larger farms.
The reasons given by farmers in the survey as to why they did not take part in the schemes were wide ranging. Some 28 per cent of farmers said they would have to make too many changes to comply. Up to 25 per cent said there was too many forms and hassle involved and 17 per cent said the plan would cost too much. Only one per cent of farmers said they had no interest in the environment.
Figures from the survey showed the entry into farm schemes over time showed some interesting results. Of note was dairy farmers who initially were slow to enter into the schemes, but since 1994 have increased their participation dramatically. Indeed the results of the survey also show that participation has increased by farmers in all the farm systems especially between the years 2005 and 2010.
The survey found that managing hedgerows was by far the most popular option farmers took in the agri-environmental schemes. Protection of watercourses and tree planting were the next most popular options. On the benefits of the schemes the survey found, that 88 per cent of farmers in the schemes thought the country side looked better. But interestingly 95 per cent of farmers who never took part in an agri-environmental scheme also thought the countryside looks better. In addition, the survey found that for 95 per cent of farmers in the schemes it was a valuable source of income.
On the drawbacks of the schemes 64 per cent of farmers in the schemes said that limitations of stocking and nutrient management was important. 86 per cent of farmer’s involved said there was too many forms and hassle.
On supports for the schemes 92 per cent of those involved in the schemes said training is necessary and 95 per cent said planner assistance is important. Only 39 per cent said they were competent to apply for the AEOS scheme.
In her conclusion, Ryan said the survey gave a better idea of what farmers think of agri-environment scheme. She said it showed farmers had strong environmental awareness and the felt benefits of scheme very positive. The survey also underlined the importance of training and support, she added.

Yup. I missed it. There is a lot to absorb in this thread. Not sure how I missed that. But then again in Shurkeys defense he also says (if you read further):
None of this should be taken to mean that the Nailhead wasn't/isn't a viable engine design; or that it can't be improved on using some amount of "modern" techniques which are readily available to a dedicated hobbyist today, but completely unavailable to even the Industrial Giant that GM used to be when the engine was being designed and produced "way back when".
Simon, You know you are twisting around what I said about torque! You are confusing what I said "MORE torqe" for "LOW END torque" The object is to not only increase the torque, but do so over a longer RPM range- Not JUST the low end torque the nailhead is famous for. Lets see the same numbers attained with a single 4bbl manifold! You cant use Teds comparison as a good example as he explained why. And you cant take say an awful-hauser 2x4 and compare it to a single 4 either. Now admittedly there are modifications that can be done to a single 4 to make some improvements. I dont think I need to restate the Stock torque and horspower ratings are for dual quads. Besides that is what is correct for my Super Wildcat motor.
Since we are talking about runner length, there is also an argument to be made for non-progressive linkage (and a difference in performance)- two carbs running together in perfect synchonicity just the same as you would a single carb, only more CFM feeding each cyllinder more directly and evenly. To illustrate further: If longer runners are supposed to typicaly increase torque, why do intake spacers hurt performance on a nailhead?

If you scroll up a bit (or a page or so) Schurkey used the term laughable, to describe Buick's design "inovations" that's where this present discussion sprang from.
No, I used the term "laughable" to describe the RESULTS, not the technology used to generate them. AND, I recognize that those results have been tempered by the passage of ~5 decades of design improvements; I also quoted the 1953 SAE paper where Buick claimed that the original Nailhead was in fact the smallest and lightest engine in it's power class when introduced. When introduced, it was a milestone. But, even before production ended, it was obvious that certain design choices had proven to be less than optimum. Specifically, the thing needed a rompety camshaft to attempt to make up for NOT ENOUGH VALVE/PORT area. Which, by the way, even Buick admits--in the SAE design paper for the '67 big block.

because I'm getting ganged up on here in this Nailhead forum for arguing that the Nailhead wasn't "laughable"
no, you're "getting ganged up on".
most of us are tren Gross and Net power ratings. you keep trying to compare factory ratings from 20 years apart while ignoring the intervening advances in technology and then say it's only a ~5% difference. compare like tech to like tech at the actual dividing line ( 1971-72 ) and the story is completely different.
the simple fact of the matter is, that if you take any 20 year span in IC engine development, the newer engines are going to more efficient than the older ones. the only thing that throws a monkey wrench in that is the emissions crap that got put on in the 70's. and i would hate to see what a Nailhead would perform like saddled with cats and AIR passages and all the rest.
Schurkey may have gone a little over-board using "laughable", but if you're a Buick guy you've got to have a self-deprecating sense of humor. surely you've heard of a "Quadra-junk" carb?
anywho, this is all completely off topic. we're all here because we like Buicks, right?
and this thread is all about trying to improve on the 1950's technology of the Nailhead, right?

Dang, how did Doc get in on this cat fight?????:laugh: :laugh: Actually , if one were to compare a BONE STOCK 401 to a BONE STOCK 400 then you would have some thing to work with.... from experience , I would say that the nail would hold its own with the later engine..... now once the mods start the whole bet is off.... you never know just how a particular engine will react to what is done to it.... One time I took a 950 cfm carb off an 396 chevy engine and put it on my 401 and put my 850 cfm carb on the 396 chevy and both engines ran much better.....
Both engines are torque monsters,,,, they should be built for peak torque at the lowest rpm and to live under ''heavy duty application'' as Buick put it...the 401 and 425 can usually hold thier own with any engine of comparable advertised horsepower, which is what the drag racing classes were set up on [hp to wt. ratio] 401s will hang inthere with 400s and 425s will stay with 430s..... the 455 is out of the nail heads class on cu. in. alone... all that I have ever said was just that,,,, and that a single carb manifold combo could be made to run better than most think,,,, and I will stick with that.... the dq set up SHOULD beat a single, all other factors being equal,,,, but I have seen several cars, mine included , where a single carb engine would run right with multiples and even beat some of them.....
nuff said, lets have fun with our nailheads, they are unusual, they hold up good , and most people like them.... kind of like me......:bla: :laugh: :laugh:

Generally speaking open spacers (squared hole kind) add plenum volume. In the case of spacers that match the throttle openings of a carb; they add to what is called a "secondary tuning" length, meaning its not adding to the "primary" port and runner length and is another chance to capitalize on inertia tuning. A "four hole" spacer is adding to this second tuning effect... Inertia rams air into the plenum at predictable RPM's based on cross sectional area.
Anyway it's an excellent question, because it leads right into 2x4's. Secondary tuning effect is another reason dual quads move torque higher in the RPM range (and thus usually lose some total peak torque output). Eight barrels have much more combined cross section than 4... And larger cross section = lower velocity at lower RPM's. (note the word secondary here has nothing to do with the secondary throttle bores)
There are several other reasons 2x4's tend to lose torque, carb signal is worse at lower RPM's, and also to fit two four barrels the runners tend to be shorter. Especially the outlying cylinders which are often longer than the inner ones, to reach the single carb style plenum.
You're right you did say just torque and I put words in your mouth, for that I apologize.

Wow, all this being said it seems that the TQ is still there down low and gained a little plus for sure extended it out into the rpm range with the dyno results we have seen recently. Ya have to like that. Some of us want to look for more performance, some like it stock. ME, I want to do as Doc says and "Pounce on a vette like a duck on a bug". I still like that Doc:grin:

I feel compelled to stick my 2c worth in this discussion for whatever it may be worth. Since I'm the one that started this little instigation on cutting off the flange with "Rotted Honda" I have to butt in. Going back through years worth of pictures & being pretty much computer illiterate, trying to enlarge these pictures & looking for any little details I could find, I found that one of our heroes, "Max B." He was making power up to & past 7K RPM's. How did he do it????? One of the reasons I'm sure is he relied on the "Nails" torque capabilities, but he also needed RPM's. When the Hi-Revving, Hi HP cars were going around corners & having to shift multiple gears to bring them back into their HP ranges Max probably kept his cars in Hi gear & without wasting precious time shifting gears the torque pulled him through. Even Carroll Shelby stated on a show awhile back about how he blow up a trans. that Max just got installed in the car from a salvage yard, "Man that thing had TORQUE"!!!! I keep saying how an engine (not motor) makes HP. It's all about passing air!!!!! Density=AIR/AIR=RPM's/RPM's=HP. It's that simple.
I'm NOT an engineer or a designer or a scientist or any of those other things. What I am is an idea kind of guy. I have an idea & start asking many questions to those who have much more knowledge about certain things than myself. We NEED to get MORE AIR!!!!!. How can this be accomplished???? Through "Rocker" ratio. It's the only way!!!!! A cam WON'T do it. It will help but it's still lacking. Even on Erik's "Nail" with the cam he went with there was still a 13 or so HP improvement. On our engine anytime they were added it was almost always 20HP. On my stocker '64 Riv. it was an astounding 26.6HP & 15.1ft. lbs. of torque. This was to the REAR WHEELS!!!!! The dyno operator flipped out as he had watched me install & adjust them & know I did NOTHING else. He had NEVER seen just by adding "Rocker Arms" such an increase!!!! Just by adding "Rocker Arms" to see a 10HP improvement is something. Ask around many will say the same thing. I've talked with & worked somewhat with Greg. I have talked extensively with Mike Lewis & Mike Attwood. Have talked & worked with Steve Magnotti. Have sent pieces of head to Germany to pick the brain of a so-called "Volumetric Efficiency/Combustion Expert" to pick his brain & get ideas. This is where we stand at today with all these ideas running around. It's nothing but GOOD & that helps us in our quest to make "Our NailHead A Better NailHead. On all the engines I've ever heard run that are trying to make as much HP as possible, either on the track, dyno or wherever, they mostly all did the same thing. The engine stopped making RPM's at 5800 or so. Why is this????? It's all about passing AIR!!!!! No matter what cam. No matter what induction system. No matter what ignition advance curve. It could only pass so much AIR!!!! The heads are at fault. The intake manifold is at fault. Most cams are at fault. They will only flow so much & that's it. Get more AIR to flow & good things can happen. Look at what Mike A. was able to accomplish with manifolds. Even though the heads could flow decent numbers there were NO manifolds that could keep up with the flow, other than the Weber manifolds that Max Produced & are being re-produced today. But, even the Weber manifolds have some restrictions. On the last engine we dyno'd we had the same results, at 5800 it was over & fell like a rock at 5900. We maxed out just like everyone else, with about 450HP. More "Rocker" dyno testing. I absolutely wanted to make sure that at RPM's above 6000 the pushrods would not lose contact or jump out of the adjusting screws just incase someone missed a shift. We took it to 6400 or so 4-5 times & pulled the covers & checked adjustments & took the "Rockers" off for inspection. All appeared OK. The next was 6700-6800 the same 4-5 times. Again, everything checked OK. Next was the last series of pulls at 7100 a few times. We didn't want to go any higher for many reasons. Again, all was OK!!!!! What we didn't notice, we we started looking at numbers the HP hadn't fallen off more than 30. So at 7100 we were still making 420HP. Never did find the drop-off point because the bottom end wasn't built for that kind of RPM's. What it DID PROVE, I WANT MORE AIR!!!!!! Bob W. 66GSCONV, cut off flanges are real numbers, not a mistake. We have gone over this many times. Mike A. also did a test with a cut off flange. He didn't come up with the same numbers as Bob W, but then again he had already done some port work to that one particular port. Bob W. came up with the same results. Porting that port lost some low lift flow, from 112 to 108 at .100". Somewhat the same as Mike A. Looking at all those pictures as time went on you could see a change in the angle of the injectors & that's when Max really started to COOK!!!!! The "Pent Roof" combustion chamber DOES have quench built-in. In '53 they did NOT & ran into major detonation problems big time. They solved that later on in '55 or '56 & on all the '57-'66 heads. What's old is NEW AGAIN!!!!! Many of our modern Hi-performance cars have "Pent Roof" combustion chambers. This allows for multiple valves & able to get away with higher compression on the quality of today's fuel without detonation. Of course they also benefit from today's technology with computers, knock sensors, etc. But, it's real. Pent Roof works. A "Semi-Hemi" so to say. So where do we go from here???? Keep the discussions going. Nothing but good can come from it.
It's been proven on the dyno that the intake spacers are only good for raising manifolds to clear linkages & such. In theory increasing port volume should work. We lost 10HP & 15lbs. when a 1" spacer was added. So much for increasing port volume!!! Having my carb. (Holley 750DP) using a hat on the carb. the engine used about 590 or so CFM's. Using a home made tunnel ram with 2/660 Holley vacuum secondary carbs. the engine used 622 CFM's. Now this wasn't one of those tall tunnel rams. It was kinda short & was made more for looks more than anything else. What it DID do was have a very poor vacuum single though the venturie's. To get the fuel to start flowing we had to raise the float levels 1/2 turn above the fuel sight glasses. Now with 2/750 Edelbrock's the engine used about 615 CFM's. Overall torque & HP output were highest with this set-up. Holding the secondary air flaps wide open did NOTHING for gaining, or subtracting CFM's, HP or Torque. It all remained the same. One of the things I can say for sure is that my single 4 was the most forgiving & more widely acceptable all around performance package. (Wish we had available a 950HP or something similar for testing) It mostly didn't much care where timing was, within reason, & HP & torque were close overall. On my mostly stock, low compression Riv. my "Rockers" & at about 4400lbs. has run a best of 13.902ET@98MPH. It would have been great if we had available to us a properly modified single 4 manifold as we know more now as what needs to be done. And a 950 HP carb. or somewhat. I can ONLY HOPE that Eelco gets that single 4 manifold done before we start on this next series of dyno testing on the "Latest" build that is being done NOW!!!!. It's also been proven that even though the larger 1.94" intake valves may flow overall more, at low lifts the numbers are much worse even on ported heads than stock heads. There is just too much combustion chamber wall which blocks the incoming fuel/air mixture. Now open up the area & compression drops dramatically. Mike A. has stated that a stock "Nail" intake port will flow about 4000 RPM's worth of swirl on an un-ported head. Now do some port work to that intake port & it drops to about 3200 RPM's. Now, to put this into perspective. The best Chevy 23* heads have about 2300 RPM's of swirl. So, we haven't lost alot. Swirl is like if your flushing a toilet. The air/fuel mixture is doing somewhat the same. So, we need to keep as much of this swirl as possible while also trying to keep the AIR numbers up. Many talk about fast burn technology. The "Nail" has had it since the days of the straight 8. Nothing NEW to Buick. Maybe everyone else. Look at when Buick was trying to design better cylinder heads. 1st. it was aluminum then around the end of '60, beginning of '61 they came out with their D-Port/Big Port heads. In the quest to make the port as large as possible not only did they raise the roof considerably they also dropped the floor. What this did was a larger port that flows about 10% less than a stock port. It's all about velocity. Buick, again, way ahead of their time. Chrysler made the same mistake on their "W" heads, but this was '69-'70.
I could go on for days, but I need to get some things done around the house.
Keep the discussions & ideas coming. The more that are involved that have a passion the more that can be accomplished.

yeah, if you can turn 7 grand you're going to make hp.
wasn't Smokey Yunick supposed to have done some silly stuff to a Nailhead as well?
Yes, a stock appearing, supposedly 600HP "Nail". I think it's home right now is at Garlitis's museum.

I haven't read all of this thread, but as to the 3 1/4" crank "stabilizing" the block from flexing...well Shurkey it's not a myth!...that's what engine design honcho Cliff Studecker said a couple of years ago when he visited JW's shop and gave a talk about the 'old days' at Buick. They had tried a 3" and had breakage problems-

Yup, the three-inch journal experimental cranks broke. Doesn't mean that the crank broke because it couldn't stabilize the block enough, though.
Schurkey, Feb 14, 2009
It broke because it was made of cast iron.... not forged steel.... big difference.... cast iron is not as tough as forged steel....
engines with forged steel rods and cranks live better than engines with cast iron cranks and mallable iron rods......

There are plenty of cast cranks with much smaller mains that don't break at that power level. And the cranks are not "cast iron" in the true sense of the word. they are armasteel or nodular iron.
For some reason I want to beliee what the design engineers said. I highly doubt they were so ignorant to only speculate on the cause of such an issue.

Well Cliff was Denney Manner's boss-that's what I heard him say. There were other board members in attendance and some of us talked about it later. He had some fun stories about blasting around the highways with 'real world' testing-I think generally between Michigan and the Arizona desert proving grounds-
tmcclu Well-Known Member
I remember Cliff talking about a $200,000 dollar mistake he had to tell his boss about, some real big bucks in the early to mid 60's! I think that was about the main journal diameter they were going to use on the 400-430-455 engines. I wonder how much money Buick would have saved by modifing the Nailhead for higher flow heads and a BOP bellhousing and keeping the good oiling system and forged internals?!

en | N/A | N/A | Starting cattle on feed, the idea is to get them eating as quickly as possible. For some, that means having feed available throughout the day so when the “mood strikes,” feed is available.
But Dr. Dale Blasi, extension beef specialist with Kansas State University says it might be time to take a page from the history books and look at limit feeding in the growing phase. Consider feed efficiency, the cost of manure removal, the benefits of health detection and other logistics – like reducing the number of days to ramp up calves to full feed – there are definite benefits to limit feeding.
Limit feeding by definition is increasing net energy in order to meet the feed required for maintenance and a specific rate of gain. Blasi compares the concept to a Las Vegas buffet or a Camp Pendleton “boot camp” diet. One is all you can eat, and it’s available whenever you want it. Or at Camp Pendleton they send you to the mess hall and you eat all you can for 15 minutes.
“This is a really good concept in a drought situation when you have to purchase roughage at elevated prices,” Blasi says.
Studies show goin, but improved feed efficiency by 27%.
. 28 lb.Perhaps one of the best reasons to limit feed include better health detection on newly arrived cattle. On a restricted diet, all calves should be hungry. It allows us to do a better job detecting calves that don’t want to eat because of some issue we are not seeing directly, he saysy receive a total mixed rationwarm up period.
But Blasi cautions limit feeding is not something just anyone can step out and do with success. “You have to be dedicated to the process, and you have to have adequate bunk space,” he says. At the stocker unit, they allow between 18 to 20 inches of bunk space per head. Reduced bunk space of 9 to 12 inches per head will not work in this situation.
Another key factor is having a good idea of what the calves weigh.
Done right, limit feeding stocker cattle2,700 over that 90-day turn,” Blasi said.
“I don’t want to confuse anybody. I’m not talking about limit feeding during a finish phase. There are a lot of reasons that is not being actively pursued today,” Blasi says. But for the growing phase, something that was once popular decades ago is something to reconsider. |

A number of different engines were tested in the D.H.9 in an attempt to solve the problem. The Rolls Royce Eagle VIII had the power but wasn't available in sufficient numbers. The answer was found in the United States, where the new 400hp Liberty 12 engine went from the drawing board to a working engine in only six weeks. Three months later, in October 1917, the Liberty was test-flown in a D.H.4, and it was decided to mount the new engine in the D.H.9.
The D.H.9 was ordered in very large numbers. By the end of the war 2,250 had been ordered and by December 1918 885 had been completed. Production continued after the end of the war, and eventually around 1,730 were completed from the wartime orders and 267 from post-war orders.
