http://barretttaxlaw.com/general-anti-avoidance-rule-gaar/ | Income Tax Act Subsection 245 The General AntiAvoidance Rule essentially states that where a transaction or a series of transactions results in a reduction avoidance or deferral of taxes owing and the transaction or the series of transactions are only being attempted for the tax benefits the transaction or transactions themselves may be invalidated The Supreme Court of Canada has established a threepoint test in determining whether or not to have GAAR applied Did a tax benefit arise from the transaction or series of transactions IsAre the transactions found to be avoidance transactions Is the transaction abusive Number one is easily satisfied as nearly all transactions are done with a tax benefit in mind The second question asks whether the primary purpose of the transaction is to obtain a tax benefit The third point is the most difficult point to prove for both sides The question it poses is whether the transaction is inconsistent with the object purpose or spirit of the subsection being used by the taxpayer to obtain the tax benefit The above test is extremely vague and both sides can usually be argued extremely well If the CRA claims that a taxpayer is in violation of the GAAR it will be up to the taxpayer to prove they are not On that same note the CRA must prove that the GAAR applies Guarding against the GAAR is extremely complex If you are planning a transaction or a series of transactions that might run afoul of the GAAR you should seek immediate legal assistance CRA Resources Information Circular 882 General AntiAvoidance Rule Section 245 of the IT httpwwwcraarcgccaEpubtpic882ic882ehtml Case law JK Read Engineering Ltd v The Queen 2014 TCC 309 Arrears Interest Calculation when GAAR Applied The Queen v Global Equity Fund 2012 FCA 272 What is the Underlying Purpose of ITA ss 3 4 9 and 111 Spruce Credit Union v The Queen 2012 TCC 357 GAAR analysis framework Purpose of ITA s 112 meaning of in proportion to 1207192 Ontario Ltd v The Queen 2012 FCA 259 How does one detemine the primary purpose of a series of transactions for purposes of subsection 2453 For more detailed case law analysis please see here httpitaannotatedcaRecentDecisionscategorysubstantiveprovisiongaar CLICK HERE TO BOOK A CONSULTATION WITH A TAX LAWYER Hear From Our Clients I retained Mr Barrett for help with the appeal of an audit Even after his fees were paid I saved over 45K No complaints here I would do it again Thank you sir Canadian Small Business Owner Had a free phone consult with Dale this morning I had what I thought was an insurmountable tax problem that has had me sleepless for weeks But after considering the information I provided on my situation Dale assured me I was not in a situation that would result in any problems and in the remote chance the CRA did come calling he told me what information to provide to clarify the issue Canadian Small Business Owner I retained Mr Barrett for help with the appeal of an audit Even after his fees were paid I saved over 45K No complaints here I would do it again Thank you sir Canadian Small Business Owner Had a free phone consult with Dale this morning I had what I thought was an insurmountable tax problem that has had me sleepless for weeks But after considering the information I provided on my situation Dale assured me I was not in a situation that would result in any problems and in the remote chance the CRA did come calling he told me what information to provide to clarify the issue Canadian Small Business Owner | [

http://barsandbartending.com/bar-jigger/ | Bar Jigger – THIS is a Jigger Posted on by the Barman Categories : Bar Products What is a Jigger / Bar Jigger Anyway ? A jigger or bar jigger is an hourglass - shaped measuring device used by bartenders to ensure that they pour accurate amounts of alcohol into every drink . Usually made of metal ( and sometimes plastic ) , jiggers contain two different measuring amounts – one on either side of the hourglass . A jigger of alcohol refers to 1.5 ounces ( approximately 44 ml ) and the bar jigger was named after the measurement . The standard jigger measures 1.5 ounces on one side of the hourglass and 1 ounce on the other side . Now , however , you can buy jiggers in a variety of different measuring amounts – from 0.5oz / 1oz all the way to 1.5oz / 2oz and also in metric sizes ( that means , like , millilitres ) . On the typical 1 x 1.5 ounces , the 1 ounce side is called a pony shot and the 1.5 ounce side is called a fluid jigger or jigger shot . Different Types of Jiggers Although the jigger pictured above is the standard and the most common you ’ ll see in bars across the world , it ’ s obviously not the only jigger you can buy . Below is a variety of different types of jiggers – plastic , tall , collapsable , and even a jigger cube for when you want more than just 2 measurements on hand . Oxo Bar Jigger This is the best - selling jigger on Amazon and also the highest rated . Likely because it adds those simple little features that every bartender wants in a jigger including a non - slip grip and incremental measurements on both sides . Throw in the fact that it ’ s dishwasher safe and you ’ ll understand why it ’ s rated 5 stars on Amazon . The Oxo jigger measures 1 oz on one side and 1.5 oz on the opposite end . Tall Endurance Jigger This stainless steel tall endurance jigger has measurements of 56ml ( 2 oz ) on one side and 28ml ( 1 oz ) on the opposite side . It has a mirrored finish and a rounded lip for that extra touch of class . Multi - Level Bar Jigger Instead of being stuck with only two measurements , this multi - level jigger has ridges marking 0.5 oz all the way up to 2.5 oz . Because of the ridges , it ’ s easy to see how much alcohol is being measured out … if you ’ re looking at it from the outside … which we bartenders do n ’ t . So , that being said , this jigger is not the ideal choice for a busy pub or nightclub . If you have a home bar , you might not mind the fact that it Plastic Bar Jiggers These ones are made from high - quality plastic and great because you can see right through them to easily figure out how much alcohol you ’ ve poured . Pourer with Jigger Cap This pour spout comes with a cap that pops off , doubling as a 1 oz measuring device . And , if your bar has problems with fruit flies or other bugs that find their way into your alcohol bottles , these are the perfect solution . Jigger Cube This cool aluminum alcohol measuring device is cube - shaped and each of its six sides has a different measurement . Pouring from 0.5oz all the way to 2.25 oz , this jigger cube allows bartenders to measure multiple measurements without changing bartending tools . Measurements Include : 2.25 oz ( 66 ml ) 2.00 oz ( 60 ml ) 1.50 oz ( 44 ml ) 1.00 oz ( 30 ml ) 0.75 oz ( 22 ml ) 0.50 oz ( 15 ml ) When you buy the Jigger Cube through our bar store , the package also includes a recipe book containing 14 of the top cocktails .

Actions Posted on August 16 2018 by Richard Bartholomew UPDATE The above headline reflects the fact that Causley has been convicted of murder However no body has ever been found and the late Bob Woffinden argued that a miscarriage of justice had occurred His critique of the documentary can be read here From the Mirror August 2017 A daughter trying to solve the riddle of her mothers murder has launched a new bid to uncover the full truth after 30 years of torment Sam Gillingham is demanding her lovecheat father Russell Causley in jail for the murder reveals what he did with Carole Packmans body She also intends to face Causleys mistress Patricia Ward in court after launching a private prosecution against her for using tragic Caroles ID Last year Caroles murder was the subject of ITV documentary The Investigator in which Mark WilliamsThomas who exposed pervert DJ Jimmy Savile probed her disappearance The BBC has an overview of the case here The television series was broadcast in 2016 and a Mirror article published at the time reported how Samantha GIllingham and son Neil sought help from investigator WilliamsThomas after he exposed Jimmy Savile as a paedophile The same article by a showbiz reporter said that after watching the final instalment of ITVs The Investigator Samantha Gillingham feels she is one step closer to discovering her mothers fate although a piece in the Express published the same day reported that viewers were left feeling cheated and furious as after various suggestions that things were going to take an interesting turn practically nothing was solved as ever this was a Twitter comment roundup article So what happened about the private prosecution against Ward No such prosecution has materialised and in April this year Neil Gillingham on social media Neil Gill issued a statement criticising WilliamsThomas for what he calls predatory actions that have humiliated his mother As evidence for this assessment he has published a text message that he purportedly received on 14 July 2017 in which WilliamsThomas appears to have promised to fund the action So we will set meeting up for next week QC is back Sunday so will get date then We are go on the private prosecution I will fund 50k to get it to trial and getting going asap But this should be kept secret We should start next week a crowd funding page to raise 50k for the private prosecution I need you to talk to Police today and tell them you are about to start a private prosecution against Patricia You have waited almost a year and no progress you need to know the state of the review and Must keep all funding aspect just between us The above is slightly ambiguous is the crowdfunded money meant to supplement the promised 50000 or to reimburse WilliamsThomas Either way though the promise is unconditional and presented as an amount sufficient to get it to trial It seems that this promise was not honoured Neil asks Who benefited from putting a positive spin on that press release Mum Me My grandmother or Mark and ITV who the same week as saying we were launching a private prosecution also announced series 2 of The Investigator Given the claims recently made about WilliamsThomas in relation to the Jonathan King trial this leaves a troubling impression We might also ask why it is that this newsworthy grievance has not made its way into the same newspapers that have over the years used material either about or from WilliamsThomas HT EricHardcastle Share this Filed under Uncategorized Some Notes on Express Journalist James Fielding Bill Maloney and Jon Wedger Brian Harveys Court Appearance A Note on Some Supporters 6 Responses Bandini on August 16 2018 at 1120 am said The original post that appears in Erics tweet can be found here httpsmfacebookcomgroups145556342840285viewpermalinkid199476667448252anchor_composerfalse There is a bit more info regarding MWTs rotten behaviour in the comments below but perhaps as interestingly a lunatic turns up offering help I wont link to the quite possibly wellmeaning ghoul but suffice to say that fake claims of having been a police consultant abound while images of Myra Hindleys waterfall nestle against others of Portugal The amount of rubbish these families have to put up with Margaret Jervis on August 16 2018 at 115 pm said This is v interesting if true The ruse of raising funds when already pledged is precisely the way some charity fundraising operates in order for it to appear that there is a massive response to an appeal ie successful so pledge more I have argued for long that many abuse investigations follow a similar plan To take the Savile Exposure programme aired after a few pre programme claims as a teaser When aired with phoneline publicity and lawyers promising compo its claimed massive response when in fact mostly a few known pre programme accusers and others on hold So another appeal for victims more pub programmes etc this time on the basis that there has been a massive response of victims since the first All based on the privatepublic appeal fundraising method pioneered by Marian Alford re the 80s GOSH appeal and described in her 93 Charity Appeals complete guide to success I interviewed her when it was published in 93 and her method of success made a deep and lasting impression on me As she said people want to contribute to success not failure Her ways of attracting the secret private donors were borderline fraudulent but all in a good cause Ciaran Goggins on August 19 2018 at 339 pm said Same Mark WilliamsThomas who white knighted for

me include a Nigerian evangelist who believes in child witches former activists with the EDL a man with a long history of bad debt and grandiosity a sockpuppeting tabloid journalist and a selfserving

http://basementdesigner.com/basement-soffits-build/ | Basement Soffits and How to Build them Basement Soffits & drops are easy to build using 2X2 ’ s and ½ ” OSB plywood . Not much to how to build them as you rip the plywood to the desired height which can be determined by the lowest duct height allowing space for framed material under the duct as well . Snap a chaulk line where you ’ ll place the 2X2 . Attaching the 2X2 at top along the ceiling on your snap line and another along one edge of the OSB , you merely attach it to the 2X2 on the ceiling and you have Typical Basement Soffit Best , Easiest , Cheapest and Cleanest Way To Build Soffits You see 2X4 ’ s spanning across to the other side but if you are attempting to reach a maximum height to get the bottom slightly lower than the duct with no gap then buy full ¾ ” real plywood for spanning across to the other side which should have either a 2X2 at the wall , beam or to another soffit drop ( between I - beam & duct ) . This maintains the highest ceiling height possible once drywall is attached . Others frame 2X4 ’ s flat to span across ducts and such losing another inch in The following image is another way to make soffits but uses more lumber , wasting space and costing you more time and money . Heavy Duty Soffit Framing Build all soffits to fit your 8 ′ drywall sections . 8 Foot Soffit Sections Here ’ s a helpful link ; How to Build a Soffit If you ’ re building 2 step soffits , you would do the same method as shown in the following image unless it ’ s a radius soffit ; then the materials are more used in reverse methods . The plywood then gets cut with the required radius with a matching one above it and 2X4 or 2X2 ’ s braces are used . 2 Step Soffit Radius Determining the radius is key . Many carpenters take the width or length of the entire radius needed , laying out from a sheet of 1 / 2 ″ plywood and really experiment from a center point using a string and pencil to test what radius is best . Depending on the type of radius , you may need to mount a longer firing strip for the center point . Archways are done basically the same way . The image below is a single soffit for a home theater room and the perimeter soffits are just built using standard framing The image below shows the typical framed method of multi - step soffits without using the faster 1 / 2 ″ plywood method at the top of the page . The following is a good example of the framing for a single dressy looking soffit and the after image when finished . Other types of soffits . 2 Step Soffit Double Arched The following images are how NOT TO MAKE SOFFITS . Bad soffit framing Bad soffit framing Fire Blocking is part of framing .

The primary objective of charging notional costs is to enable management to make clearer internal decisions by making sure that internal decision making become more realistic by assuming that the cost of all resources consumed reflects the full economic value – usually by applying market prices . Notional charges are typically used to charge responsibility centres . Notional interest is often charged for the use of internally generated funds . Examples of using notional cost to enhance internal management making decisions : Charging of ‘ market rent ’ , where buildings have been purchased on a freehold basis . Such a mechanism helps to focus management attention on making best use of space so that surplus space across the whole organisation might then be sold or rented to another user . Intra division charges to enable management to see the true performance of certain departments Sunk Costs : Sunk cost is defined by ICMA terminology as A past cost not directly relevant in decision making . If we refer to relevant costs , the main feature is that we are referring to FUTURE costs . As Sunk costs are cost which have already been incurred therefore it should be ignored when making any decisions . Sunk costs are irrelevant costs which are simply costs that will not affect the decision . By analyzing these type of sunk costs , management will be wasting their time and efforts as these costs do not affect the decision they are going to make . In short term decision making , fixed costs are generally regarded as sunk costs . Illustration : Say Company A has a factory which produced product A . Earlier last year it has extended and renovated the factory at an additional cost of $ 200,000 to produce product B . Now management is thinking of whether to let outsiders produce product B or not . Should this $ 200,000 be considered ? $ 200,000 is sunk costs which existed as a result of previous decision . Committed Costs : These costs are similar to sunk costs in that they exist as a result of previous decisions although the ‘ charge ’ has yet to be incurred or the cash released . Committed costs are costs that have been committed by management . Examples are like renovation of factory premises , capital expenditures being incurred as company ’ s purchase orders have been issued or workdone is partially completely and payment to suppliers still outstanding However , the abovementioned costs committed contractually is effectively a sunk cost . Illustration : Question : Say company A is unable to rent out its building / workshop but there is a need to sign off a contract to spend $ 70,000 on an air conditioning system . Would this make any difference to management decision ? Answer : None whatsoever . This type of situation might be awkward but past costs ( and mistakes ) should not impact upon the logic of financial decision making . The $ 70,000 that has been committed contractually is effectively a sunk cost . [ Also refer to earlier articles on Relevant Costs ] Comments are closed now . | [

Basketball ( 1997 ) Baron Walter Louis Davis is an American professional basketball player in the NBA at Point Guard who last played for the New York Knicks . Davis became a star at Crossroads School ( Santa Monica , California ) and UCLA . Davis was drafted by the Charlotte Hornets as the third pick in the 1999 NBA Draft Contents show Early life Davis was born in Los Angeles , California . His grandmother and guardian , Lela Nicholson , was instrumental in pushing him to play basketball . With her encouragement , he eventually earned a scholarship to attend Crossroads School , a prestigious private school in Santa Monica , California . As a senior at Crossroads , Davis led his team to the Championship of The Beach Ball Classic tournament in Myrtle Beach , South Carolina over perennial prep powerhouse Christ The King Regional High School ( Queens , New York ) , while earning MVP honors and a spot on the All - Tournament team along with future St . John ' s standout Erick Barkley at that prestigious event . That year , Davis was also named Gatorade National Player of the Year and a Parade All - American . He was also selected to play in the prestigious McDonald ' s All - American High School Basketball Game in Colorado Springs , Colorado in 1997 , playing with future NBA players Elton Brand Shane Battier Larry Hughes and Ron Artest , and winning the Sprite Slam Dunk Contest despite being the smallest man in the competition at 6 ' 2 . " College career After a highly contested recruiting battle that saw Kansas Georgia Tech Duke , and in hot pursuit for his services , Davis selected UCLA as his school of choice , so that he could play in front of his family and friends . During this time , Davis was involved in a minor scandal pertaining to his driving a 1991 Chevy Blazer that was a gift from his sister , then a UCLA employee . The car was sold to her by a member of Jim Harrick ' s family . At the time , Harrick was the UCLA men ' s basketball coach , presenting both a conflict of interest and a potential recruiting violation , since rumor had it that the car was purchased below market value . The incident was cleared up when it was discovered that Davis ' sister had , in fact , bought the car at the listed blue - book price . Davis then enrolled at UCLA in 1997 without problem . In 1998 , Davis was named the Pac - 10 Freshman of the Year and made the All In Davis ' two years at UCLA , he averaged 13.6 points and 5.1 assists for the Bruins . While coming down from a dunk during an NCAA Tournament game his freshman year , he injured his knee and tore his Anterior cruciate ligament ( ACL ) . Surprisingly , though , he made a full recovery the next season and seemed to have regained nearly all of the speed , quickness , and explosiveness he had before the injury while doing enough on the basketball court to warrant his declaring for the 1999 NBA Draft after his sophomore campaign NBA career Charlotte / New Orleans Hornets Davis was the third pick in the 1999 NBA Draft by the . In his NBA debut , a 100 – 86 win over the Orlando Magic , Davis scored nine points , and added five rebounds , two assists and two steals . In Davis ' first year , he backed up Eddie Jones and David Wesley , but by Davis ' second year he started all 82 games for the Hornets . Davis would lead Charlotte to the second round of the playoffs in back - to - back years , the first being a sweep of the Miami Heat in the 2001 NBA Playoffs . The next season , Davis started all 82 games again while averaging 18 points a game and 8.5 assists per game . He was also selected as an injury replacement for Vince Carter in the 2002 NBA All - Star Game . In the summer of 2002 the Charlotte Hornets moved from Charlotte , North Carolina to New Orleans , Louisiana . Davis would lead the Hornets back to the playoffs , but the next two years were first round exits . Injuries would plague Davis for much of his tenure in New Orleans . He played for the US national team in the 2002 FIBA World Championship Golden State Warriors File : Baron throwback . jpg On February 24 2005 , Davis was traded from the Hornets to the for guard Speedy Claxton and veteran forward Dale Davis after tension with the Hornets coaching staff and several nagging injuries . The move created one of the more potent backcourts in the NBA with Davis and star guard Jason Richardson . It also saw Davis ' return to California where he craved to return to since his college days in UCLA . After two seasons in which the Warriors underachieved under coach Mike Montgomery , the Warriors hired former coach Don Nelson for the 2006 – 2007 season . His high scoring offensive system was designed to fit Davis ' s uptempo style . Although Davis suffered through knee soreness and underwent surgery during the season , he still led the Warriors to their first playoffs since 1994 . The Warriors swept the regular season series against the Mavericks 3 – 0 giving them an advantage and won the series against the top seeded Dallas Mavericks 4 – 2 , making them the 1st No . 8 seed to beat a No . 1 seed since the NBA changed the 1st round from a 5 - game series to a 7 - game series . It was numerically the largest upset in the history of the NBA playoffs , with the 67 – 15 Mavericks having a record of 25 games better than the 42 – 40 Warriors . Davis averaged 25 points in the series . In the following series , against the Utah Jazz , the Warriors ' run ended in 5 games . Davis ' s performance in the 2007 NBA Playoffs drew praise from basketball analysts and fans alike , with a few claiming Davis to be the best player in the post - season . Davis ' playoff highlights included numerous acrobatic layups , a half - court three - pointer at the buzzer , and a memorable dunk over Andrei Kirilenko . The Jazz eliminated the undersized Warriors 4 games to 1 . Davis averaged 25.3 points , 6.5 assists , 2.9 steals , and 4.5 rebounds per game in the 2007 Playoffs . After the 2007 – 08 season , in which Davis failed to guide the Warriors to the playoffs , Davis ' s agent Todd Ramasar claimed that Davis might opt out of his contract with the Warriors , which would have paid him $ 17.8 million , to pursue other options . This was seen as evidence of a rift between Davis and coach Don Nelson growing after Nelson pulled Davis from a playoff elimination game against the Phoenix Suns due to Davis ' s poor playing and shooting ( 2 – 13 in 17 minutes ; the Warriors were down 14 points when Davis left the game , losing by 6 ) . On June 30 2008 , Davis opted out of his contract with the Golden State Warriors . Los Angeles Clippers On July 1 2008 Davis verbally agreed to a 5 - year , $ 65 million dollar deal to play for the Los Angeles Clippers , and officially signed with the Clippers on July 10 , 2008 . Although Davis committed to joining the Clippers with the intention of playing with Elton Brand ( who had opted out of his contract but was expected to re - sign with the Clippers but later signed with the Philadelphia 76ers ) Davis still signed and said that Brand ' s departure had no impact on his decision to come to Los Angeles . < . . .

He was named the NBA Rookie of the Year and became the youngest player to win the NBA Most Valuable Player Award Contents show Early life Derrick Rose was born and raised in the Englewood area , one of the most dangerous neighborhoods on Chicago ' s South Side . He was Brenda Rose ' s fourth son after Dwayne , Reggie and Allan , but the first in seven years . All three were talented basketball players who taught Rose the in and outs of basketball on nearby courts . As his talent for the sport grew , Rose began to attract much more outside attention in Chicago ' s basketball circles , leading his mother and brothers to restrict outside contact to him , Ronnie Fields High school By the time Rose enrolled at Simeon Career Academy in 2003 , he was 5 ' 11 " and a hot commodity for collegiate coaches . Despite his reputations , he played freshmen and JV basketball for the Wolverines and wore # 25 in honor of Ben " Benji " Wilson , a former promising player who was murdered by a gang member during his senior year in 1984 . Rose was n ' t allowed on varsity due to a long - standing tradition that head coach Bob Hambric , who had been with the school since 1980 had ; no freshman on the varsity team . That rule did n ' t lessen Rose ' s play and he went on to put up 18.5 points , 6.6 assists , 4.7 rebounds and 2.1 steals per game and led both the freshmen and sophomores to city championships with a 24 – 1 record . Hambric softened his stance and allowed the freshman a chance to play on varsity in the state tournament , but Rose declined , wanting the players to get due credit . The next year Hambric retired and Robert Smith was hired , opening the path to varsity . In Rose ' s much - publicized debut , he had 22 points , 7 rebounds and 5 steals over Thornwood High School in a sold - out game filled with college scouts and coaches . He led the Wolverines to a 30 – 5 mark while averaging 19.8 points , 5.1 rebounds , 8.3 assists and 2.4 steals but the season ended after a loss in state regionals . Rose ' s play garnered him his first national award : a Parade Third Team All - American spot . During Rose ' s junior year in 2006 , the Simeon Wolverines broke through and won the Chicago Public League championship held at the United Center where Rose starred with 25 points and crowd pleasing dunks . The team advanced through the playoffs and earned a berth in the Class AA state championship against Richwoods High School , where a fourth quarter buzzer beater by Richwood forced overtime . The score was knotted at 29 late in the extra period when Rose stole the ball and buried the game winning jumper with 1.5 seconds remaining , giving Simeon its first state title since the Wilson - led Wolverines won in 1984 . The team finished 33 – 4 , nationally ranked and Rose was awarded with an All - State Illinois mention , EA Sports All - American Second Team pick and another Parade All - American selection .

In January 2007 , Simeon traveled to Madison Square Garden in New York City in January 2007 to play Rice High School ( New York ) and star guard Kemba Walker The Wolverines , however , lost 53 – 51 .

Strong efforts were made by Indiana University and in - state University of Illinois to sign Rose to their own programs . Illinois in particular planned to pair Rose and their five - star recruit Eric Gordon , who had played AAU basketball with Rose , together . Gordon however retracted his verbal commitment from the Fighting Illini , opting to play for Indiana , and Rose subsequently gave his verbal commitment before the start of his senior season . Rose chose Memphis because of the school ' s history of putting players in the NBA and the prospect of Rod Strickland , a 17 year veteran of the league , mentoring him . Rose switched to # 23 , unable to wear his customary # 25 , retired by the school in honor of Penny Hardaway With the addition of Rose and led by veteran upperclassmen Joey Dorsey Chris Douglas - Roberts , the Tigers started out the season ranked third in the nation . Memphis sprinted to a 26 – 0 start and claimed the number one ranking in the country for the first time in over 25 years before falling to the University of Tennessee Volunteers 66 – 62 in February . Memphis was able to bounce back and capture the Conference USA Tournament to qualify for the " Big Dance " with a 33 – 1 record . Rose averaged 14.9 points per game , 4.7 assists and 4.5 rebounds per game during the regular season and earned All - American Third Team honors among others . He finished as a finalist for the Bob Cousy Award as well as the John R . Wooden Award Memphis was seeded No . 1 in the South Region and blew out most of its competition on its way to the Final Four . Rose earned high praise for his increased focus on defense , hounding Texas Longhorn guard D.J. Augustin into a low - percentage game in the Elite Eight . In a match - up against the UCLA in the Final Four , Rose finished with 25 points and 9 rebounds while putting tight pressure on Bruins ' point Darren Collison to lead the Tigers to the NCAA championship game against the University of Kansas Jayhawks with a 85 – 67 victory . The win set a NCAA mark for most wins in a season ( 38 ) . Against Kansas , Rose scored 17 points on 7 – 17 shooting , grabbed six rebounds and dished seven assists , but missed a critical free throw at the end of the second half , and Memphis fell in overtime , 75 – 68 . Memphis concluded the season 38 – 2 . Rose was named to the All - Final Four team after averaging 20.8 points , 6.5 rebounds and 6 assists during the tourney . On April 15 , Rose declared for the 2008 NBA Draft Grading controversy According to the University of Memphis ' legal counsel Sheri Lipman , a month after the loss to the Kansas Jayhawks , the NCAA sent a letter to the school stating that Rose had " an invalidated standardized test score the previous year at Chicago ' s Simeon High School " . The next January , the NCAA sent another letter , charging Memphis with knowing that Rose had someone else take his SAT for him . Memphis started its own investigation and sent its response back on April 24 . On May 28 , the Memphis Commercial Appeal obtained the letter through the Freedom of Information Act and released it . Although the player ' s name was redacted due to privacy laws , process of elimination and sources revealed the player as Derrick Rose . The next day in a separate investigation , James Sullivan , Inspector General of the Chicago Public Schools district ' s Board of Education , released a report of his investigation stating that four student - athletes of a CPS school had one - month grade boosts to alter their college transcripts . The Chicago Sun - Times revealed the school as Simeon Career Academy and that three of the four were Rose and his former teammates Kevin Johnson and Tim Flowers , prominent members of the back - to - back championship teams . The newspaper claimed that Rose ' s grade was changed from a D to a C . Another part of the report stated that " high school staff lost the original permanent records for three of the above mentioned students athletes " ( including the unknown four ) . Sullivan started the investigation because " none of the grade changes were supported by any documentation ” . He also failed to find a suspect as " at least seven people at Simeon had the ability to access student grades and records " . Illinois High School Association ( IHSA ) executive director Marty Hickman reacted by saying , " It is obvious that this is worth taking a look into " . Robert Smith , who coached the Wolverines from 2004 to 2007 , denied any wrongdoing . District spokeswoman Monique Bond said the students involved probably did n ' t know about the grade change . Additionally , allegations surfaced that Rose ' s brother , Reggie , had been allowed to travel with the team for free on several occasions . Memphis contended that it had learned of the allegations about Rose ' s SAT score shortly after he enrolled at the school . It conducted its own investigation , in which Rose was questioned by four school officials . Ultimately , Memphis was unable to find any evidence that Rose had cheated based on what was available at the time , and cleared him to play . Rose released a statement through his lawyer Daniel E . Reidy : “ Mr . Rose is aware of the allegations reported in the press . Mr . Rose cooperated fully with the University of Memphis ' athletic and legal departments ’ investigation of this issue when he was a student , and that investigation uncovered no wrongdoing on his part . " On August 20 , the NCAA vacated Memphis ' 2007 – 08 season . It took the line that even though Rose ' s score had n ' t been thrown out until after the season , strict liability required that he be declared ineligible . It also determined that even without the questions about his test score , Rose would have lost his eligibility in December 2007 due to Reggie being allowed to travel for free .

Meanwhile , the Bulls , re - energized by the trade deadline acquisitions of John Salmons Brad Miller , finished the regular season on a 12 – 4 spurt to qualify for the 7th seed in the Eastern Conference . Chicago ' s late push contributed to Rose ' s winning Rookie of the Year , joining Michael Jordan ( 1985 ) and Elton Brand ( 2000 ) as the only Bulls to do so . He was also the first number - one draft pick since LeBron James to win the award . He averaged 16.8 points on 47.5 % field goal shooting , 6.3 assists ( leading all rookies ) and 3.9 rebounds per game and was also named to the NBA All - Rookie First Team In his playoff debut against the defending champion Boston Celtics , Rose recorded 36 points ( tying Kareem Abdul - Jabbar ' s NBA record for points scored by a rookie in his playoff debut set 1970 ) , 11 assists , and 4 rebounds as the Bulls prevailed in a 105 – 103 overtime win on the road .

http://bassanglermag.com/fishing-with-live-minnows/ | Fishing with Live Minnows 01 / 29 / 2013 When it comes to minnow fishing , one constant is , its FUN ! I have always had a weakness for fun . When I was asked to do an article on minnows I was a little apprehensive ; “ Minnow fishing ” ? That is n ’ t fair ! ! ” Why write an article on minnow fishing ? Anybody can do that , right ? Having fished the Western Pro Bass circuits for over 25 years I was n ’ t sure how it would be received by tournament anglers . Then it occurred to me that over the last few years I had taken several Pro ’ s on guided minnow trips . Not only did they have a One other thing I would mention for the tournament angler is what you can discover regarding timing . Delta anglers will know what I mean . Timing tides for example is everything when it comes to the river . Likewise , in lakes when the wind is hitting a point at a certain angle or the sun goes over the hill just right , minnows can help you uncover mysteries with certainty . Guiding with minnows can make it easier to help young or inexperienced anglers catch bass and have a blast in the process . Three basic techniques I use for fishing minnows : Shallow Water , Deep Water , and Free Line . Shallow fishing is done with a float . The rig consists of a hook , a small split shot ( to keep the bait down ) , a float and a bobber stopper . The bobber stopper is important because it allows you to control the depth of the bait . For most applications you want your bait to swim within 18 ″ of the bobber . I prefer the wooden floats because they are easier to cast , are more durable and they hold better in the wind . The Deep Rig is simple but a little harder to use . I put a hook on the end of the line and pinch a ¼ oz . bullet sinker 18 ″ up the line . Then I use my electronics to position the boat over a break or rock pile . Let the bait sink to the bottom and reel up a couple of turns . It ’ s just like mooching for salmon or stripers . Put the reel on free spool and hold it with your thumb . Let the fish run a bit then set the The Free Line technique is best for sight fishing or pitching to big fish suspended under docks or trees . I use a bare hook with no weight and make long casts . With all these methods I use 12 lb . line , a Gamaktsu 2 / O extra wide gap finesse hook and hook the minnow through the bottom lip and up through the nose . A simple rule of thumb is : Get your bait where you think the fish are located by whatever means is possible without killing it . Last year in a span of three weeks my clients and I landed and released 28 bass over 10 pounds including a 16.57 . With results like that I do n ’ t care what anybody says , if you have n ’ t tried minnow fishing , you are missing out ! But then again I ’ ve always had a weakness for fun !

Timm Paul Dini Affiliations Harley Quinn Abilities None Portrayed by None Bud and Lou are The Joker s two pet laughing or spotted hyenas Their names are references to the comedy duo Abbott and Costello The Jokers hyenas have also appeared in Batman The Animated Series The Batman and the comics but remained unnamed or simply referred to as Babies by Harley Quinn Joker finally confirmed their names as Bud and Lou however in The New Batman Adventures episode Jokers Millions Contents show History DCnU In the Death of the Family storyline Harley Quinn escapes the Jokers attempt to make her fully realized by dropping her into a vat of chemicals However she is confronted by Bud and Lou who both have been turned rabid by the Joker to turn them into pure animal instinct They both attack Harley who is forced to kill them much to her sorrow In the 2016 run of Harley Quinn it is revealed that Harley managed to keep them alive and gave them to a zoo where they both had pups She also reveal that their full names are Budsie and Louie Characteristics In Krypto the Superdog both hyenas have red fur with black spots and black rings around their eyes Bud wears a purple collar has a black right front paw and speaks in a higher voice Lou wears a green collar has a black left front paw and right hind paw and speaks in a more gravelly voice However in Batman The Animated Series they are identical and both wear red collars in The Batman they are identical wear no collars and are grayish in color Both hyenas have a distinctive odor This was first mentioned by Ace in the episode The Cat and the Bat Later on in the episode Funny Business Ace told Krypto he could smell their evil Bud and Lou in Krypto the Superdog Like their master Bud and Lou love to laugh maniacally and play jokes on their foes Like the other animal characters on Krypto the Superdog they also seem to be quite intelligent a reference to the intelligence of actual hyenas For instance in Bat Hound and the Robin while stealing pillowcases for The Joker to carry loot in they deduced that the pillowcases made of one material would be better because pillowcases made from the other fabric would shrink in the wash meaning less loot could be put in them Also The Joker has given the hyenas items to use in combating Bat Hound At one point in The Dark Hound Strikes Bud pretended to give himself up When Ace seized Buds collar in his Joker venom Batman The Animated Series Bud and Lou appeared in Batman The Animated Series and The New Batman Adventures numerous times They appeared to prefer Harley Quinn over The Joker and when Harley wasnt present The Joker refused to feed them They were also featured in Batman Gotham Adventures several times but appeared mostly as brief cameos on covers rather than appearing in the actual story Harley was able to summon them to protect her by simply screaming Babies and she refused to leave with the Joker when he was planning to nuke Gotham because Bud and Lou would have been caught in the explosion It has been speculated by fans that the reason why Bud and Lou prefer Harley in this version is due to spotted hyenas having a matriarchal society putting Harley above Joker in the hyenas eyes The Batman Bud and Lou appear briefly with the Joker on The Batman but are actually depicted as being more monstrous and disgusting mangy critters Unlike their original versions they were albino a fact remarked on by the Joker who said they resembled their dad They were sent after Batman Batgirl and Catwoman on Killgore Steeds private island but were subdued and befriended by Catwoman who remarked that hyenas are more closely related to cats than dogs in response to Jokers surprise that a canine would be so friendly with her Batman Arkham City Bud and Lou stuffed and displayed in The Penguins Museum in Batman Arkham City Before the events of the game when Black Mask first wound up in Arkham City and ran into Joker and Harley Bud and Lou tried to attack him Bud and Lou appear in the game Batman Arkham City They are on display in Cyrus Pinkneys Institute of Natural History which has become the Penguins stronghold in Arkham City When activating the display the Penguins recording says Recognise Jokers pets Me too Thats why I had them shot and stuffed Scanning the hyenas solves the Riddler riddle Have Jokers pets laughed themselves to death or just eaten too much Behind the scenes Bud and Lou are named after the renowned comedic duo Bud Abbott and Lou Costello Appearances Batman The Animated Series Krypto The Superdog The New Batman Adventures The Batman Batman Arkham City Injustice 2 Bud and Lou appear during Harley Quinns opening cutscene As she walks by them she pets them affectionately One of her prebattle statements mentions

Wasserman Malachi Throne Kate Micucci ( Voice ) Basil Karlo , the original Clayface , was an actor who was driven mad when he heard of a re - make of the classic horror film he had starred in , Dread Castle . Adopting the persona of " Clayface " , the villain of one of his old films , he became a serial killer targeting the cast and crew . He was eventually stopped by Batman and Robin . Later , Karlo would be imbued with the powers of Clayfaces Preston Payne and Sondra Fuller . The name of the character comes from Boris Karloff and Basil Rathbone . Contents show History Edit Clayface as depicted on the cover of his debut appearance Basil Karlo was an actor until he was driven mad by learning of a remake of the classic horror film he had originally starred in with a new actor in the lead role . Adopting the alias of the villain of one of his old movies , " Clayface , " he fatally wounded several members of the cast and crew of the remake before eventually being defeated by Batman and Robin . He reappears in Detective Comics # 49 ( March 1941 ) after the prison ambulance he is riding in plunges off a cliff . He once again dons the mask of Clayface and targets Bruce Wayne ' s fiancee . Once again , the Dynamic Duo foil the evil Karlo . Much later , Clayface languishes in a prison hospital , where Lady Clay ( Sondra Fuller ) visits him out of curiosity .

Though the Mud Pack is defeated , Karlo tricks his allies and manages to imbue himself with abilities similar to those of Preston Payne and Sondra Fuller . He was defeated by the combined efforts of Batman , Looker , and The Outsiders by overloading his abilities and making him melt into the ground .

http://batman.wikia.com/wiki/Deathstroke_(Teen_Titans) | in : Teen Titans ( TV series ) Characters Villains Deathstroke ( Teen Titans ) Edit Share History Edit As a nod to his comic counterpart , Slade ' s mask only had one eye - hole , though his " true " face was never shown and his mask was only taken off half - way during his first battle with the Titans ; but was silhouetted by a shadow ( he was shown to have brightly colored slicked back hair ) , and then he was seen with his face as a skull with a scar running through his right eye socket when he accompanied Robin against a battle with Raven ' s father , Trigon . In the episode " Forces of Nature , " however , Slade wore a disguise that closely resembled his face from the comics . He was also changed from a mercenary and an assassin to an enigmatic criminal mastermind ( though in one episode he stated that he enjoyed working for someone else ) , dispatched slews of supervillains and android ninjas to kill the Teen Titans instead of directly coming after them himself . Most of Slade ' s plans were strictly scientific in nature , though he did summon a fire elemental in one episode . Slade was shown to be ambitious , calculating , and incredibly sadistic ; however , his underestimating of the bonds that existed between all the Titans and his fury over not being able to sever those bonds often led to his undoing . Slade ' s main goal was apparently to kill the Titans , conquer the city , and quite possibly the world . In the first two seasons , Slade sought out an apprentice , by starting with Robin in the first season , whom he coerced into working for him by threatening to kill the other Titans with nanobots , and then Terra , whose desire for control and acceptance that he preyed on . Slade was killed at the end of the second season by Terra , who dropped him into a lava - filled pit , and was , as a result , mostly absent in the third season , with Brother Blood , who acted as the main villain In the Season 3 episode " Haunted , " Slade appeared as a figment of Robin ' s imagination , due to a chemical reagent that was released from his mask when Robin touched it , and caused Robin to see hallucinations of Slade which attacked him . Robin ' s mind made the injuries inflicted upon him real . Robin eventually figured out what happened and overcame the hallucination . However , it ' s revealed that this gas had been triggered from the outside by an unknown party . Slade returned in the fourth season as an undead Slade aided the Titans in defeating Trigon afterward . Slade escaped capture after the world was saved as both he and Robin noted that the partnership had changed nothing . After the fight with Trigon , Slade himself made no more appearances throughout the show , however a robot duplicate of him did appear in the last episode of the series " Things Change , " when Beast Boy was searching for answers on why a girl who appeared to be a newly revived Terra seemed to have lost all memory of her past or superpowers . Slade confronted Beast In the Teen Titans : Know Your Foes interview on the Season 2 DVD , Slade was said to have enhanced strength and an enhanced healing factor . Slade appeared also to have a degree of super speed , as he was able to move faster than Robin could see during their fight in " Apprentice Part II " . Slade was well - trained in most forms of combat , both unarmed and with weapons , to the point that he appeared to be Robin ' s better , and bested him frequently and fairly easily during their fights , but he never delivered a finishing blow Slade also fought Beast Boy once in person , and though the fight was inconclusive , he could have killed Beast Boy at least twice during it . Slade was a bona - fide genius , with great knowledge in robotics , as well as military , political , and subversive strategy . However , Slade was easy to anger , which Robin eventually took advantage of . Slade seemed to possess some knowledge of ceremonial magic ( as seen in the episode Forces of Nature ) . Slade appeared to have access to extremely advanced technology and various secret hideouts , nearly unlimited resources , and a vast army of robot minions . However , Slade ' s most notable quality was that he was a master of manipulation and psychology , which allowed him to get his foes to do almost anything that he wanted through shrewd manipulation . Slade was also the only main Teen Titan villain who was still at large at the end of the series . Categories Teen Titans ( TV series ) Characters Villains Add category | [

J I ' d be used to a little pain . ― Harley Quinn [ src ] Dr . Harleen Frances Quinzel , also known as ( a pun on the word " harlequin " ) , first appeared in the Batman : The Animated Series episode " Joker ' s Favor " , where she served as a humorous female sidekick to the Joker . In her first appearances she was depicted as a character completely devoted to the Joker , totally oblivious to his psychotic nature and obvious lack of affection for her ; this characterization has remained more or less consistent throughout her subsequent appearances . The origin of the character was recounted in a 1994 graphic novel The Batman Adventures : Mad Love . Told in the style and continuity of and written and drawn by Paul Dini and Bruce Timm ( two of the producers of the animated series and Harley ' s creators ) , the comic book reveals Harley ' s origins as an Arkham Asylum psychiatrist who falls in love with the Joker . The story was widely praised and won the Eisner and Harvey Awards for Best Single Issue Comic of the Year . The Mad Love story was originally thought too violent for the animated series , but was eventually used in the New Batman Adventures episode " Mad Love " in 1999 . This made it the first " animation - style " comic book to be adapted for the series , a practice that would be continued for the episode " Holiday Knights " . Contents show History Origin Harley as a doctor at Arkham Dr . Harleen Quinzel was a psychiatric intern at Arkham Asylum . A model student , in addition to receiving high grades in college , she was also a dedicated gymnast , winning a scholarship to Gotham City University . While researching the lunatics at Arkham , she became fascinated with one particular inmate . Ambitiously volunteering to analyze him , she pleaded with the doctors at Arkham for three months before she could treat him . After he gained her sympathy during their sessions , he seduced her , causing her to fall madly in love with him . After helping him escape from the asylum more than once , Harleen was suspected by the authorities , who revoked her license and placed her in her own cell . During an earthquake in Gotham City , she fled and became Harley Quinn , the sidekick of the Clown Prince of Crime himself . Harleen Quinzel Quinn ' s relationship with the Joker is one of the most complex and twisted love affairs in comics : as with all people , the Joker is abusive and manipulative towards Harley , but , just as often , there ' s evidence of camaraderie , playfulness , and genuine affection towards her . The Joker would only use Harley for intense sexual intercourse and her body . She ' s the only person who ' s managed to become intimate on such a long term basis with the Joker , who , in turn , displays occasional moments The Iconic Depiction of Harley Quinn One time , when the Joker realized he had very deeply hidden feelings of love , he sent Harley off in a rocket . She crash landed in Robinson Park in the center of Gotham and was found by Poison Ivy . When Harley regained consciousness , Ivy initially planned to kill her . The prospect of her own death totally fails to move Harley , and Ivy is curious as to why . She convinces Harley to tell her story , and soon feels a kinship to her . Considering her another castoff , Ivy offers to help Harley take her revenge on both Batman and the Joker . Ivy took her back to her lair in a toxic waste dump and nursed her back to health . This included injecting Harley with a serum that Ivy had developed which Harley and Ivy While Batman eliminates the villain ' s muscle , Quinn chases the Joker up a damaged building , intending to send him falling to his death . Before she can do so , however , the Joker apologizes . Falling in love with him again , she forgives him on the spot , and serves as his lieutenant throughout the rest of No Man ' s Land , as well as the Emperor Joker storyline . After this , Ivy dissolved the partnership in disgust . Ivy remains , however , her usual first point of call when she and as " Red " ( a reference to her red hair ) Harley Quinn ' s original Outfit In the One Year Later storyline , Harley Quinn resurfaces as an inmate at Arkham Asylum , glimpsed briefly in Detective Comics # 823 . Harley next appeared in Batman # 663 , in which she helps the Joker with a plan to kill all his former henchmen , unaware that the " punchline " to the scheme is her own death . Upon realizing this , she shoots him in the shoulder . In Birds of Prey # 105 , Harley Quinn joins the Secret Six as the sixth member . In issue # 108 , upon hearing that Oracle has sent the Russian authorities footage of teammate Deadshot murdering the Six ' s employer as payback for double - crossing them , Harley asks , " Is it a bad time to say ' I quit ' ? " Gotham City Sirens Harley Quinn has joined forces with Poison Ivy and Catwoman in Gotham City Sirens . Having moved in with Poison Ivy at The Riddler ' s townhouse , she meets up with Catwoman who offers for the three of them to live and work together . Ivy resolves that she and Harley would provide Catwoman with " positive female reinforcement " , and the three then agree to become a team . However , Harley and Ivy have one condition : they demand that Catwoman reveal to them the true identity of the original Batman . Suddenly , however , a new villain who tried to take down Selina Kyle named Boneblaster breaks into the apartment and the three of them have to move after they defeat him . Later , after a chance encounter with who she thought was Bruce Wayne ( but was really disguised Hush ) , the Joker attempts to kill Harley , apparently out of jealousy . Quinn is rescued by Ivy and Selina , and it is later revealed that her attacker was n ' t the real Joker , but one of his old henchmen impersonating him . During the Holidays , Harley travels to Bensonhurst , Brooklyn , where she visits her family . Her brother seems to be lazy and unwilling to work , causing Harley to fuss at him about the situation . Her mother also voices her disapproval for Harley ' s status as a wanted criminal , even though her daughter tries to say that she has changed her ways . The meeting leads to Harley going to visit her father in prison . She and her dad talk of why he is in jail once again , and he tries to tell Quinn soon returns to Gotham City , not wanting to stay anywhere near her family . She then goes back to living with Catwoman and Poison Ivy in an abandoned animal kennel , which she warmly regards as her new home . Following a number of adventures with Catwoman and Ivy , Harley betrays them and breaks into Arkham with the goal of killing the Joker for abusing her as often as he did . However , Harley ultimately chooses to instead release Joker from his cell , and together the two orchestrate a violent takeover of the facility that During the ensuing fight , Catwoman says that she saw good in them and really only wanted to help . Just as Batman is about to arrest them , Catwoman helps the two of them escape . The New 52 DCnU Harley Now sporting a new costume , Harley is later arrested by Black Canary after murdering one of the prosecutors who put the Joker behind bars . She is then tortured and forcibly inducted into the Suicide Squad by Amanda Waller . It is eventually revealed that she no longer wears face paint , and that her bleached skin is now part of a permanent condition . She also seems to be attracted to Deadshot , as she sees an abusive leader in him just as she saw in the Joker . Despite having no powers at all , she proves to be a valuable asset to the Squad , though she is easily the most mentally unstable ( Deadshot described her as " cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs ) . Surprisingly , she does not show any visible reaction upon hearing of the Joker ' s " death " beyond stopping in her tracks and staring off into space , though after Deadshot snaps her out of her day dream and tells her to focus very focused right now " . In the fourth issue she is moved into isolation and separated from the rest of the Suicide Squad , which confuses the Belle Reeve guards as she is a powerless unstable woman , though as her guards ask what she could possibly do Waller insults the guard ' s intelligence and Quinn smiles at the guard . She is not seen with the rest of the Suicide Squad when they are sent to put down the break out at Belle Reeve . It ' s revealed at the end of the fifth issue that Quinn somehow orchestrated the breakout and deactivated her bomb as a diversion to escape from Belle Reeve , and is shown to be going to Gotham City to learn about Joker ' s death . Quinn returns to Gotham and begins a crime spree with henchmen in her image . During the issue Quinn flashbacks to her first meetings with Joker , though her origins have been slightly altered as of the reboot . Unlike her DCAU counterpart and previous versions , Harleen never believed any of the Joker ' s tales about his childhood and is shown to be both incredibly intelligent and has some fighting proficiency as shown when she threatened the Joker upon realizing he has brought a knife into their first session . In their tenth session Joker reveals what he Inside the GCPD , Harley retrieves Joker ' s face and tries to escape with it , to go to Arkham , but is stopped by Savant .

He wakes up unmasked and is Harley ' s near brush with death seemed to have cured her of her psychosis , and for a time , she refers to herself as ' Dr Harleen Quinzel ' again . Later in the series it is revealed that this was only temporary . It is possible Harley has developed multiple personality disorder . Harley returned to the team after her betrayal , but Deadshot seems to be against her returning to the squad . When Harley tries to ' make it up to him ' she receives a punch in the face . When a gunman working for Basilisk who was being taken in for interrogation was poisoned , a traitor was suspected in the group . Deadshot appears to believe the traitor to be Harley Quinn after her rampage earlier on in the series . When the plane they are flying on is destroyed by a member of Basilisk , the Suicide Squad lands somewhere in the Gulf of Mexico where a tribe of Mayans capture them and get ready to sacrifice many of the members . Sometime later Harley is seen in a storage unit with many of her " treasures " talking to her stuffed beaver . She is thinking about what it would be like for her to have her own comic book . When she hears some voices who offer to depict her in her comics . First Becky Cloonan depicts her as a rock star in the middle of a concert , but she gets booed off stage resulting in her shooting her band , and asked to see another author .

Where she is spotted by a bounty hunter who tries to kill her , causing her to crash in the middle of a bridge , her new dog fetches her hammer and she proceeds to knock the guys head off for the trouble he caused . Some time later she arrives at Powers and Abilities : Gifted Intellect : Despite being somewhat absent - minded , she is shown to be highly trained in psychiatry and gymnastics .

Weapons , etc . : Quinn employs a variety of Joker ’ s party - gag weapons including her baseball bat , giant gag mallet , knife , pop pistol and missile - firing pistol ( HQR ) . In Other Media Television DCAU See : Harley Quinn ( DC Animated Universe ) In the animated series Quinn often teamed up with Poison Ivy to take on Batman . Quinn ' s friendship with Ivy was also one of the few villainous team - ups in the animated series seemingly rooted in genuine friendship . When Ivy demanded during one episode that Quinn stand up for herself , Quinn said " I am not a doormat — am I ? " Ivy replied , " If you had a middle name , it would be ' Welcome ' . " Harley as an old Woman in Batman Beyond : Return of The Joker Her eventual fate is shown in the movie Batman Beyond : Return of the Joker . She disappeared , and was presumed dead , after falling into a deep crevasse during Batman ' s final showdown with the Joker ; however , incredibly deep pits are a notoriously unreliable means of death in fiction . Indeed , a scene toward the end of the film reveals that she survived to start a family , with her granddaughters ( Delia and Deidre Dennis ) inheriting her devotion to the Joker and eventually joining the Jokerz Gang as Dee - Dee . This scene exists primarily because Harley is Paul Dini ' s admitted favorite character ( not to mention being his main original addition to the Batman mythos ) , and he was unsettled by having to kill her off , so he snuck that scene into the script on his own . It survived thanks to Bruce Timm , who felt the lighter moment was a perfect relief after the intensity of the climax . It should be noted that her reaction to Dee - Dee ' s involvement with the Joker ' s plan seems strange ; she Birds of Prey Harley in Birds of Prey In 2002 , a live - action television series called , loosely based on the comic of the same name , included Harley Quinn as a psychotic psychiatrist and main villain . The character was portrayed by actress Mia Sara , who replaced Sherilyn Fenn ( originator of the role in an unaired pilot episode ) . The show aired only 13 episodes . In this show , Harley is portrayed as an older , far more calculating and sinister character than her bubbly comic and cartoon personas . She also does not wear a costume , although she does wear an outfit that is reminiscent of her cartoon costume in the series finale , " Devil ' s Eyes " . In that episode , she used experimental technology to transfer metahuman mind control powers to herself . It The Batman See : Harley Quinn ( The Batman ) Batman : The Brave and the Bold Harley Quinn is introduced to the Batman : The Brave and the Bold series in the episode " Emperor Joker " . She is voiced by Meghan Strange . This version is a henchwoman of the Joker and wears an outfit similar to that of a 1920 ' s flapper woman . Quinn never appears in her original costume , though Bat - Mite does in the episode , and Paul Dini had a cameo in Harley ' s costume in a previous episode . She holds a brief crush on Bat - Mite in the episode , but ultimately proves to love the Joker more . She makes a cameo in the series finale , " Mitefall ! " , as part of the wrap - party for the now - canceled Brave and the Bold series . She kicks Gagsworthy when he tries to approach the Joker . Young Justice A teenager wearing Harley ' s DCAU costume is seen in the Young Justice episode " Secrets " . DC Universe The character proved so popular that a version of her was eventually added to the more serious Batman comic book canon . She first appeared in Batman # 570 , " The Code " as part of the " No Man ' s Land " story . The comic - book version of Quinn , like the comic - book version of The Joker , is more dangerously psychotic and less humorously kooky than the animated - series version . Quinn ' s DC Universe comic book origin , revealed in Batman : Harley Quinn ( October , 1999 ) is largely an adaptation of her animated origin from the Batman Adventures : Mad Love graphic novel . A Harley Quinn ongoing series was published monthly by DC Comics for 38 issues from 2001 to 2003 . Creators who contributed to the title included Karl Kesel and Terry Dodson . Harley Quinn continues to appear in other DC comic books . She should not be confused with Harlequin , a distinct Teen Titans character originally appearing in the seventies . Harley Quinn is a character in the cartoon show DC Superhero Girls as a student attending Super Hero High . She is portrayed as not insane , not evil , but more of a hyperactive class clown . She is a member of the Suicide Squad — part of the DC Comics " New 52 " reboot in 2011 . To be added Film Batman Unchained Harley Quinn was meant to appear in the sequel to Batman & Robin , entitled Batman Unchained , as one of the main antagonists alongside the Scarecrow . Quinn would have been portrayed by singer Madonna , and would have been rewritten as the Joker ' s daughter seeking revenge for his death instead of his psychologist - turned - henchwoman and lover . Any other details about Harley ' s role in the film are currently unknown . However , Unchained was scrapped after the almost universal negative reviews of Batman & Robin . The unmade film served as a testament to Quinn ' s popularity , as Unchained ' s production and initial planned release were set before Harley had been introduced into DC ' s main continuity . Justice League : Crisis on Two Earths In Justice League : Crisis on Two Earths , Harley is the name of a monkey owned by the Jester ( Earth - Two ' s equivalent of the Joker ) . Suicide Squad ( 2016 ) Margot Robbie as Harley in Harley Quinn is part of the Suicide Squad released on August 5 , 2016 and portrayed by Margot Robbie . The Suicide Squad is a secret government agency who recruits imprisoned super - villains to execute dangerous black ops missions in exchange for clemency . The Lego Batman Movie Harley Quinn makes an appearance as a supporting antagonist of the film , voiced by Jenny Slate . She is Joker ' s henchwoman , and aids Joker in freeing a majority of villains from the Phantom Zone by disguising herself as Harleen Quinzel in order to get the Phantom Zone gun . Videogames LEGO Batman : The Videogame Harley Quinn ( Lego Batman : The Videogame ) Batman : Arkham Series Harley Quinn ( Batman : Arkhamverse ) DC Universe Online Harley Quinn in DC Universe Online Arleen Sorkin reprises her role as Harley Quinn in . Her look is similar to her appearance . Mortal Kombat vs . DC Universe Harley Quinn was originally intended to be a playable DLC character together with Quan Chi in Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe but due to Midway ' s bankruptcy , it was cancelled . Injustice series Harley Quinn appears in Injustice : Gods Among Us as a playable character , with Tara Strong reprising the role from Batman : Arkham City . Her Prime universe equivalent helps the Joker set up a bomb to blow up Metropolis . In the " Insurgency " universe , Harley has become an ally of Batman after the Joker ' s murder at the hands of Superman and the leader of a group of anarchists known as the Joker cult . Quinn returns in the sequel , Injustice 2 , voiced again by Strong . Now a full - time superhero and one of the few people Batman trusts and cares about , viewing her almost like a sister , the Insurgency Quinn joins the battle against Brainiac and the Society . She is nearly killed by Wonder Woman , however . Batman : The Telltale Series Harley Quinn ( Telltale ) LEGO sets LEGO has made a minifigure of Harley Quinn who looks very similar to her appearance . She comes in the set with a large " truck " with a hammer on the side and a LEGO version of Batman , who appears to be wearing the same batsuit as he does in The Dark Knight . LEGO Batman comes with a vehicle resembling the Batpod , though very movie inaccurate . Personality and traits Details of Harley ' s character vary depending on the incarnation , but most versions have an obsessive infatuation with the Joker whom she nicknames " Mistah J " or " Puddin ' " . Blindly loyal to the Clown Prince of Crime , Harley is often depicted as a victim of physical , verbal and mental abuse , eroding her sanity and resulting in a sociopathic madwoman . Occasionally , she shows signs that she knows her obsession with the Joker is unhealthy , but only a few incarnations have been able to fully break away from him . Bubbly , energetic , and charming , Harley often hides her demented mind behind a childish exterior , which she can combine with the flirtatious demeanor of a woman who is aware of her good looks and will use them to get what she wants . She is also much more intelligent than she lets on , often causing friend and foe alike to underestimate her — in the storyline , she came closer to killing Batman than the Joker ever did — and some incarnations even have a genius level IQ , despite her insanity . Her training as a psychiatrist gives her a knack for getting into people ' s heads . In addition to being a skilled manipulator , she ' s prone to explosive fits of rage and has a violent streak that almost rivals that of the Joker himself . Indeed , the very first incarnation of Harley could even intimidate him when she was angry , although later incarnations are often submissive and put up with his abuse out of a Unlike most versions of the Joker however , most of Harley ' s incarnations do possess a softer side and are capable of genuinely caring about others . She treats her pet hyenas , Bud and Lou , like her own children , calling them her " babies " , and genuinely loves , whom she often nicknames " Red " or " Pammy " . The nature of their love depends on the incarnation , with some being portrayed as lovers , others as close friends , and a few even behave like family members , with Ivy often acting like a big sister or a mother to the more immature Harley . Harley can also be very loyal to people she cares about , but at the same time she struggles with an innate selfishness and a sense of dependence on others . Her loyalty to people like Ivy rarely surpasses While most versions of Harley have attempted to leave her life of crime behind at least once , only a few have succeeded . Those that have can rarely escape from her destructive past completely . Harley ' s grandchildren followed in her footsteps in Return of the Joker and after Joker ' s death in the Injustice series , he was revealed to still be her greatest fear when she was exposed to Scarecrow ' s fear gas .

That ' s just the question Tweedle - Dee put to Alice in Through the Looking - ― The Mad Hatter [ src ] The Mad Hatter is an enemy of Batman in Batman : The Animated Series . He was voiced by the late Roddy McDowall Contents show History Edit First seen in the episode Mad as a Hatter , Jervis Tetch , a meek scientist experimenting with mind control equipment , has a romantic interest in his co - worker Alice Pleasance , who is unaware of his feelings . He was frustrated upon hearing that she had a boyfriend , but when news reached him that their relationship had sunk , he made it his top priority to impress her . He dressed up as the Mad Hatter character from his favorite book , Alice in Wonderland , and set off with a bunch of flowers , ready to make his move . His attempts at impressing His use of mind controlling chips attracted the attention of Batman , who had earlier confronted two hooligans that Jervis manipulated and told to " go jump in a river " . Batman stopped the two from committing suicide and noticed that in their hats were card chips with " 10 / 6 " labels . The Dark Knight suddenly remembered seeing Jervis Tetch ' s mind controlling invention in his office , as well as a picture of him wearing a hat with the same label tucked inside of it . Jervis , now calling himself the Mad Hatter , brainwashed Alice ' s boyfriend into dumping her again before leaving an abundance of flowers and other gifts in her home , waiting in ambush for her return . Jervis was soon confronted by Batman , causing him to brainwash Alice and kidnap her . Defeating the Mad Hatter ' s two brainwashed thugs , Batman follows him to an amusement park with an Alice in Wonderland section , where he has brainwashed various civilians into dressing up as Wonderland characters and attacking Batman . The Dark Knight releases them from the maniac ' s spell and battles the In Perchance To Dream Bruce Wayne finds himself trapped in a dreamworld where his parents are alive , he is engaged to Selina Kyle , and does not moonlight as Batman .

Tracking down " Batman " , Bruce pulls off his cowl to reveal Jervis Tetch , who admits to Bruce that he mine ! " . Jervis was arrested and returned to Arkham Asylum In Trial , the Mad Hatter was one of many Arkham Villains who escaped , using his brainwashing chips to subdue most of Arkham ' s staff , and put Batman on trial under the claims that " he created them " . He was the main member of the jury and was the one who announced the verdict . He was also called to the stand and DA Janet Van Dorn asked him why he brainwashed and kidnapped Alice . His first reply was " Batman forced me to do it . He was going to take her away from me . I had no choice " . Van Dorn bluntly pointed out that he could have just left Alice alone and respected her wishes , to which the Hatter shouted that he would have killed her for it . Meekly , he requested to the The Joker that the last comment be omitted from the record . Fortunately , there was no record . In the episode The Worry Men , Jervis used his mind control equipment to his advantage and brainwashed many people to do his bidding . Including having Gotham ' s millionaires to donate a total of one hundred million dollars to him for a retirement . Make ' Em Laugh , The Joker stole his mind control devices for his own use . He brainwashed famous people to become villains and also brainwashed Tetch himself to fall into a sort of deep open - eyed sleep . He is also shown in Arkham playing chess with the Scarecrow . He also appeared telling the Joker to turn back to the previous T.V channel or in this case " Hey ! I was watching that ! " in Jokers Wild The New Batman Adventures The Mad Hatter as he was later depicted in The New Batman Adventures When the series was later redesigned , the character design was radically changed . Looking shorter and rat like , the Hatter was an albino , white haired man in green clothes . This change was made in effort to make the character more like the original Hatter from Alice in Wonderland . Many fans were not pleased by the change . He appeared on a chat show along with Harley Quinn The Riddler and The Ventriloquist . He claimed that he and the rest of the villains were just lost souls , and that Batman was mad . ( This whole sequence later turned out to be part of a dream brought on by the Scarecrow ' s gas ) .

http://batsintheattic.org/catchinhouse.html | How to Catch a Bat Flying Around Inside Your House GOOD OPTIONS : 1 ) Watch the bat , and wait for it to land , then drape a towel over it and bunch it up in the towel , then bring it outside and unfold the towel . 2 ) If it lands on an unobstructed wall or floor , place a plastic container over the bat , then slide paper under the container to trap it . 3 ) Open windows and doors and wait for it to fly out ( might not work very well , but worth a try ) . BAD OPTIONS : 1 ) Attempt to catch the bat on the wing , with a butterfly or fishing net - this will very likely result in injury for the bat , and it ' ll be difficult . 2 ) Swing at the bat with a tennis racket or baseball bat . This is how rednecks address the problem . 3 ) Place a bucket of water in the room , and wait for the thirsty bat to drown itself - this rarely works . 4 ) Run away and hope the problem will solve itself - the bat will either die of exhaustion or injury , or it ' ll just find its way elsewhere in your house .

Catching The Bat The easiest way to catch a bat will be to use a thick cloth or a towel . Toss the towel in a careful manner over the bat in a net - throwing motion . Once the bat is under the towel , scoop it up , making sure to wrap the bat inside . Be sure not to crush it ! Bats are fragile , and their wings are made of very thin finger bones . Do not take your gloves off just because the bat is in the towel . You will hear a clicking noise which means Once you have the bat inside the towel or container , bring it outside ( some states do mandate that a bat inside is killed and tested for rabies ) . You can put the towel or the container on the ground if you want . Make sure that the door is closed so that it does not fly right back inside . Once you remove the towel you will be able to see the bat on the ground . Do not remove it all the way , just enough for you to see the bat . The bat should Once you get the bat out of your home , you need to address the underlying problem . You likely have a colony of bats living in your home somewhere .

http://batteryuniversity.com/index.php/learn/article/how_to_measure_cca_cold_cranking_amp | BU - 902a : How to Measure CCA Discover why a good CCA reading does not always guarantee a good battery Ever since Cadillac invented the starter motor in 1912 , car mechanics have explored ways to measure cold cranking amps ( CCA ) . CCA measurements assure that the battery has sufficient power to crank the engine , especially when cold . Typical CCA readings for a car range from 350 to 600A and higher for trucks . SAE J537 specifies that a battery with a CCA reading of 500A can deliver 500A at – 18 ° C ( 0 ° F ) for 30 seconds without dropping below 7.2 volts . Source : BMW CCA can not be “ measured , ” but it can be “ estimated ” and the process can take a week per battery . A full CCA test is tedious and is seldom done . To test CCA , apply different discharge currents to see which amperage keeps the battery above a set voltage while cold . Table 1 illustrates the test procedures according to SAE J537 , IEC and DIN . The methods are similar and only differ in the length of discharge and the cut - off voltages . SAE J537 CCA test IEC CCA test DIN CCA test Fully charge battery according to SAE J537 and cool to - 18 ° C ( 0 ° F ) for 24 hours . While at subfreezing temperature , apply a discharge current equal to the specified CCA .

While at subfreezing temperature , apply a discharge current equal to the specified CCA . ( 500 CCA battery discharges at 500A . ) To pass , the voltage must stay above 9V for 30s and 6V for 150s . Table 1 : CCA test methods of SAE , IEC and DIN . The methods differ in the length of discharge and the cut - off voltages . ( See SAE J537 in Glossary . ) A variety of battery testers have emerged that read CCA . Since current flow relates to ohmic value , most CCA testers measure the internal battery resistance . To test the CCA with a carbon pile , a battery that must have an SoC of 70 to 100 percent . It is then loaded with half the rated CCA for 15 seconds at a temperature of 10º C ( 50º F ) and higher . As an example , a 500 CCA battery will discharge at 250A for 15s , and the battery passes if the voltage stays above 9.6V Mechanics prefer small sizes and device manufactures have developed handheld testers , which induce a momentary high - current pulse that corresponds to the entered CCA value . Ohm ’ s law calculates the internal resistance on hand of the induced voltage drop , and the device provides a CCA - equivalent reading . This test method is fast and convenient , but it does not estimate capacity . The AC conductance method reads CCA by injecting a single frequency of 80 – 90 hertz to the battery . These non - invasive units are small and stay cool during the test , but the battery should have a SoC of 70 percent and higher . As with other resistance - based test methods , AC conductance can not read capacity . Battery scientists predict that future battery diagnostics lie in EIS by combining the test results of the Randles model with complex modeling to estimate CCA and capacity . Called multi - model electrochemical impedance spectroscopy , the Spectro ™ - series battery rapid - testers ( by Cadex ) are the first to utilize the EIS technology . ( See BU - 904 : How to Measure Capacity Accuracy has always been in question and CCA is especially difficult to verify as the readings are affected by SoC , temperature and and other factors . Figure 1 compares CCA readings taken with AC conductance and the Spectro ™ technology at different SoC . Both measurements decline with lower SoC ; however Spectro ™ is affected less than AC conductance . Since many batteries hover at about 70 percent when the car is brought in for service , the CCA readings between the two methods will appear similar . Figure 1 : CCA accuracy on state - of - charge . The Spectro CA - 12 provides stable CCA readings between a SoC of 100 and 40 % ( red ) ; the values on AC Conductance drop rapidly with SoC ( blue ) . Figure 2 illustrates CCA readings as a function of SoC and battery performance . The CCA of Battery A , with a capacity of 100 percent , stays steady down to an SoC of 10 percent ; Battery B , with 37 percent capacity , starts to show instabilities at an SoC of about 40 percent ; and C , with only 22 percent capacity , provides uncertain results . The test clearly demonstrates that battery state - of - health affects the readings . A good battery provides strong symptoms with good accuracy ; the readings from a weak battery are muddled and the results are less consistent . Figure 2 : CCA accuracy in relation to battery condition and SoC . The battery condition governs accuracy . Battery A ( 100 % ) is accurate to 10 % SoC ; Battery B ( 37 % ) to 40 % SoC . Battery C ( 22 % ) delivers unstable results . Test condition : Batteries are discharged at 20A . CCA is measured every 10 min with Spectro ™ No single instrument can evaluate all battery anomalies and rapid - testing only provides rough estimations . A micro - short in a cell , for example , can only be identified by measuring the open circuit voltage ( OCV ) after a rest or checking the specific gravity of the electrolyte . Rapid - testing might pass the battery as good because a charge covers up the anomaly . All test methods encounter outliers . Reliable results are only possible if robust symptoms are present . This is not always possible with unformatted batteries and those in storage . No ideal battery test method exists but EIS has the potential of surpassing other technologies .

I am possibly interested in the purchase of lead acid battery capacity meter On November 5 , 2011 at 9 : 37am Troy Mikkelson Cost of the CA - 12 is in the 4 digits before the decimal point region . It is n ’ t intended for hobbyists , but shops that service / sell batteries . The flipside is that Cadex IS the # 1 Battery Test / Charge platform for all chemistries for over 20 years , so there is no doubt that the CA - 12 is a quality product . On February 1 , 2013 at 7 : 29am Alex A better method of explaining what capacity is , is to have a swimming pool and a kitchen sink filled with 12 inches of water each … lets assume an inch of water equates to 1 volt … after all , voltage is a pressure and with 12 inches of weater in a vessel , a certain fixed pressure is realized at the bottom of it . You now have a 1 ” diameter hole at the bottom of the swimming pool and the kitchen sink . It is easy to see how the voltage would drop after a minute of flow as the level in each vessel decreases . . The level in the swimming pool will hardly change , whereas the level in the kitch sink will be near empty . On February 3 , 2013 at 9 : 55am Chris Barry Could someone please provide a better definition of CCA ? In particular , what will the load be during the course of the test ? There would seem to be three options , constant load resistance , constant current and constant potential . Using either of the first two would seem to make it effectively unmeasurable , at least with any degree of precision , as it would be necessary to predict the the performance of the battery before starting the test . A test at constant voltage , on the other hand , should be quite easy to perform . Even with quite simple equipment - a rheostat moved by a motor , controlled by a circuit which monitors the battery voltage . With modern power semiconductors it should be possible to do the same job more quickly and with no moving parts . The significant result would then be the current flowing at the end of the test .

On July 18 , 2013 at 12 : 54pm reason The reason is 12V battery CCA is = CCA of 12V battery , so , when 12V battery = 24Vbattery / 2 , then 12v battery * 2 = 24V battery , so CCA is CCA On July 18 , 2013 at 12 : 55pm New Reason THEE CCAAA OF 12V BATTERY IS AROUND 500A On January 7 , 2014 at 3 : 17pm Alvan W . Atkinson Since batteries tend to fail in cold weather probably because less capacitance available as the available capacitance falls linearly with temp ( flooded lead - acid ) Why not put a battery in a progressively cold environment — programmable refrigerator and graph resistive discharge ( 15sec ) carbon load or other at decreasing temps . Or test at 0C vs 50C . Would seem this relatively simple stress test , although it would take time to change temp of battery would increase reliabilty of prediction of reserve CCA . ? ? ? ?

Manufacture - SAFT , Battrey type - SPH 250 &300 ; . Please advise which testers are available for NiCd starting batteries . On April 19 , 2014 at 6 : 22pm Shannon I have a bunch of 12v car batteries that are unlabelled ( about 50 ) so I have no idea of the manufacturer OR the cca . What device can I connect to the batteries to find out what the capacity of them is now without entering the original cca ( as I have no idea what it would be ) ? On June 13 , 2014 at 6 : 35am Bob Nuckolls Capacity and CCA are not tightly related . A rather small battery ( low capacity ) can demonstrate exemplary CCA ratings while some really big honkers will turn in disappointing CCA numbers . I have a 75 pound , group 31 battery on my bench right now with a demonstrable capacity of over 120 ampere - hours . . . but it drops to 9V at 600A load . Conversely , I have some 18 pound batteries in the 18Ah class that will dump 500 + amps at 9V . Clearly , the internal impedance of the batteries with a smaller CAPACITY is superior to the larger battery with 5x the capacity . A detailed study of the condition of your batteries can be conducted by first topping them off with a quality charger - maintainer . Then load - test to 9V with a carbon pile LOAD tester . Top off again and the CAPACITY test with something like the West Mountain Radio CBA capacity meter ( runs battery down and counts electrons ) . . A comparison of the LOAD and CAPACITY numbers for the family of test article will gie you the best measure of their condition and potential performance .

I dont ’ understand how come a small battery ( car battery ) have a 600A label on it while it looks like 40AH car battery . Kindly provide a bit of example . In india , we have car batteries ranging 30Ah - 45Ah . Truck batteries ranging between 100Ah to 140Ah . But as to why in USA and Canada , Cars batteries of same size have label of 600A on it ? ? ? ? ? And bigger batteries for trucks have 1000A label on em ’ . Any point clearing my confusion would highly be appreciated . On December 19 , 2014 at 11 : 00am David I think you mean full - fledged , not full - fletched . While this article appears to be informative , such incorrect language use degrades professionalism , and this site is named battery university . On March 7 , 2015 at 4 : 47pm Wole Adu @ Barry , the 600A refers to the CCA ( Cold Cranking Ampere ) and not the Ah . On April 9 , 2015 at 12 : 16pm Lisa i was told I needed a new battery . They said the cold cranking amps rated 600 measures 279 c.c at my last check up at the car dealer . Is this true ? Do I really need a new battery ? On May 28 , 2015 at 2 : 33pm Wole Adu @ Lisa 279CCA will not start up your car , what you can do is ti regenerate your battery outside that buy a new one . On July 13 , 2015 at 1 : 28pm Jessica Hi , I just had my car battery tested and they said my battery was low and needed to be replaced . I ’ m confused though because they guy said it read 325 out of 500 , and I am not sure what these numbers are referring to ? Everything I have found regarding car batteries are discussing voltage ( should be at 12.6 for a good battery ? ) So confused . Thanks for your help . On July 18 , 2015 at 1 : 53pm wole adu 325 you were told is the CCA ( Cold Cranking Ampere ) , which means a battery ’ s ability to start an engine in cold temperatures . On July 18 , 2015 at 1 : 56pm wole adu CCA ( Cold Cranking Ampere ) , is the rating used to define a battery ’ s ability to start an engine in cold temperatures . On August 17 , 2015 at 7 : 36am Mike_Massen Have a pair of 24AHr SLA Lear jet APU starter batteries ( in parallel ) for a Holden Apollo 2.2L 4cyl ( Rebadged Toyota Camry Wagon ) , these are the high quality so called ‘ pure lead ’ Hawker ( narrow red ) batteries same as certified for avionics , they were initially used in a high end UPS at the local Curtin University library server room & reached their end of life in ~ 2006 . They ’ ve been used in my car since & still start fine , though they ’ re a bit down on CCA from new ~ 600A ea , last time I checked their parallel CCA was ~ 950 In summer , when daytime temps exceed 35 C & up to 44 C , they sit in water in the engine bay in a plastic battery box - sometimes in town I ’ ll to drop into a local coffee shop & get a couple of take - away cups of ice & flood that into the battery box . Minor corrosion on the stainless steel terminals isnt a problem as its easy to brush off . In winter when it gets down to approx 20C the box is dry & they ’ re fine .

It is a Group 78 battery with 800 CCA . . Just to be safe , I had it tested and the result was a fully charged battery at 12.69 volts . However , the CCA was only at 698 , not 800 . That means that the new battery is at 87 % state of health . BTW , the outside temperature was in the mid 70s . Should n ’ t this new battery test at On December 20 , 2015 at 2 : 49am FatBaz43 The most important information is the number of plates in the battery ( something which battery manufacturers no longer state ) which has a direct bearing on the internal resistance of the battery . As an example the battery for a UK Mini was a 40 ampere - hour 7 plate battery which was adequate for starting a 850cc engine . A battery of exactly the same physical size for the UK E - Type Jaguar was 72 ampere - hour 13 plate battery suitable for starting 3ltr + engine . I had this battery for over 10 years in On December 20 , 2015 at 3 : 31am Mike_Massen Thanks FatBaz43 - interesting info , a modular form with replaced segments could well be more than suitable for large stationary backup arrays , in a safe room of course … One of my Hawkers used in my car looked like it had a cell short , so took it out removed the caps , added water , cycled it a dozen times or so and its fine again , these batteries just keep going - adding water to a SLA battery isnt recommended though as it involves acid & can take some time to not just charge cycle but handle the water & move it around for distribution . My perception is the gel gets hydrated again , maybe … On January 27 , 2016 at 2 : 25pm Brian All I want to know is , “ What ’ s the lowest CCA value my battery can be before I need to replace it ? ” My mechanic said my battery rated at 376CCA . I do n ’ t know if that ’ s enough to last a day , a week , another year ? I do n ’ t know what kind of test they put it through . Certainly not a laboratory type of test . On April 6 , 2016 at 7 : 51pm Liam I have looked every where for an answer to a question asked by a friend . What is the difference in measurement between CCA and SAE in batteries when testing them with a battery tester that only tests in SAE . On April 7 , 2016 at 12 : 46am Mike Massen @ Brian CCA is directly related to the instantaneous power required to make the starter motor spin with the load its connected to . Eg A starter motor in one car draws 85 Amps ( 4cyl ) to turn the engine over with a good speed , a different car its drawing 125 Amps ( V8 ) , both cars can be started by a battery that offers 376CCA or even lower provided it is reliable and you have good wiring so energy is not lost via resistance in the cables , bolts , connectors etc . Its not about how long it lasts , that issue is addressed by whether its in good condition and especially if your charging circuit is working properly . Eg If all is ok and you drive your car long enough after starting to recharge it to limit then it can last for months or years , no problem . Understandably mechanics / sales eager for income might say you need higher CCA to last longer , not quite unless the battery is really cheap and its CCA drops over time as it ages , so its CCA later is below that needed for the starter motor * at that time * . ie Its a risk assessment issue and in my opinion I ’ m not compelled to buy a new battery which has a CCA any more than 4 times the starter motor instantaneous draw . You can find that out with a combination multi - meter which has a DC clamp current measuring option , in my book a necessary ( and cheap ) piece of gear helpful for all sorts of reasons , cheers On April 12 , 2016 at 2 : 43pm Neadus Callus HI . I have a battery tester that will test a battery for damaged cells . however , it requires a ccs value . . I only have the Ah values . . how can I use this instrument to measure and test a battery rated at 12vdc 7ah for example . thank you On June 13 , 2016 at 5 : 49am Aldo @ Neadus Callus , not all 12V - 7 Ah Batteries have the same CCA it depend on each internal resistance due to the construction technology of battery ( AGM - GEL - Flooded ) . . . in general CCA flooded > AGM > GEL but only with the same number of plates and surface area … A 7 Ah 12V Battery can be 100 to 200 CCA ( EN - 2 ) But normally , like the Midtronics testers , they calculate the different CCA with the measyre of the total Internal resistenze with an internalk memorized curve ( always at - 18 ° C ) . . . . On June 13 , 2016 at 5 : 51am Aldo p.s. what I have previous written is valid for Lead acid Batteries ! ! ! ! On June 13 , 2016 at 5 : 56am @ LIAM there are some formulas to convert different CCA Currents ( maybe you can find in internet but I do not found it ) . . . but in general CCA current is : DIN < IEC > EN ( 2 ) > SAE < EN ( 1 ) I remember that for example DIN = 85 % IEC DIN = 60 % EN ( 1 ) On June 13 , 2016 at 6 : 06am @ Brian : in a Lead Acid Battery there is the maximum CCA when the battery is new with an Acid dencity of 1260 gr / Lt at 20 ° C … First thing you must to be sure that your battery is fully charge . Sometimes LAB loose some charge during usage because of the low costant voltage charge ( 13 , 8 - 14 , 2 ) of the alternator … after 2 years can be around 1235 - 1245 gr / Lt If so , after a fully recharge to 16V ( constant current I20 ) for 2 - 3 hours and 4 - 5 hours of rest you must to repeat CCA electronic test and compare the result with the CCA value written on the declaration label … On June 13 , 2016 at 10 : 57pm Ok , I have found an Old Sonnenschein SLI Battery paper document with the conversion formulas : SAE = ( DIN / 2 * 3 ) + 40 ( A ) IEC = DIN / 0 , 85 EN1 = IEC / 0 , 6 ; or EN1 = DIN / 0 , 51 EN2 = DIN / 0 , 6 On September 20 , 2016 at 12 : 38am andre Hi , have a yuasa here which only reads 300 on the 660 cca rating . Apparently this is a bad sign but is it still likely to be fine for solar use ? The pump draws less than 3a anywhay but thought i would ask a second opinion . Thanks ! On December 28 , 2016 at 4 : 28pm Kenneth Lindahl I have spent years trying to create an affordable devise that can predict impending battery failure . I believe that I have the answer . Background . My father was hired by a company to work at a top secret American base , there was / is no security clearance required because you we ’ re never there . The best and brightest minds in the country build the thing , but these folks we ’ re unable to fix the problems that arose during operation . The government brought in people , usually from the military , that had fixed machines , or performed a stupid act that would turn out to be a tremendous asset to the government . Dad was a TWA pilot during Back to the battery devise . Education is great but books stifle the creative process because your head is inside somebody else ’ s , not your own . Give me the data that I require on a hundred car batteries and I will tell you which ones are ready to expire .

It had a 1 / 2 On August 30 , 2017 at 8 : 44pm Sue nishida My dealer gave me a report saying my battery failed cold cramping amps test rated 582 and tested 399 . Do I need to replace my battery ? On February 20 , 2018 at 11 : 31am Cássio Is there any issue in upgrading a car ’ s battery ? My car came from factory with a 48 Ah with CCA rating of 370 A . When I had to replace it , I installed a 52 Ah battery , with 450 A of CCA , as the battery manufacturer only listed 50 Ah and 52 Ah batteries as being recommended for my car model . The alternator from my car can output up to 70 A of current . I suppose you can upgrade the battery , as long as the rated CCA is equal or higher than the factory one , ensuring the starter motor will get sufficient electric current to operate , right ? So far , the car is running fine , without any electrical issues . I guess the only difference in installing a higher capacity battery , is that it will take longer to be recharged by the alternator , right ? On July 4 , 2018 at 12 : 30am Laverna Botsford Unit Converter is the procedure of transforming both the conventional components in 1 sort into the following based to this demand . The demand for its simple transformation has ever existed from the various areas for distinct functions . Many internet instruments and converters can be found and these are able to be depended on for practically any conversions now . Using all these tools that the intricate emotional calculation might be averted and accurate and quick results might be found . On July 14 , 2018 at 2 : 41am Sultan Ali Azad Sir , 1 - What is the Difference between Ah and CCA in a Battery ? 2 - How to Convert CCA to Ah ? I mean how can convert CCA to Ah ? I would appreciate your timely reply . On September 13 , 2018 at 4 : 31am Sudipto Ranjan Dass Hi Sultan , Ah is the capacity rating of the battery . Means the ah delivered by the battery if its discharged at 1 / 20th amps of the capcity rating in Ah . the product of time in hrs and the current gives the AH delivered . Whereas CCA is the discharge current that can support the battery voltage upto 7.2V till 30 sec at - 18 deg C . CCA can not be converted to ah by any formula . because same ah batteries can have different CCA ratings depending on the design combination of the plates that actually provide the surface area for reaction . On October 25 , 2018 at 5 : 31am Suresh Patil With MIDTRONICS instrument , CCA value was measured as per SAE and value is given as 590A . Battery was fully charged and was at ambient 30 ° C . I cooled the battery to 0 ° C . in cold chamber and measured again CCA value with the same instrument . It gave much lower value . At minus 18 ° C , this value may become still less . How to declare CCA rating without actual test at minus 18 ° C ?

http://baylorscoliosiscenter.com/scoliosis-faqs | Scoliosis is one of the more common disorders of the spine . Most people experience few symptoms or problems , but for those with a progressive curvature , problems can be severe . If you or someone you know has been diagnosed with scoliosis , you may have questions . We have provided answers to the most common questions below . If you would like further information , please call the Baylor Scott & White Scoliosis Centers at 469.814.2464 What is scoliosis ? Scoliosis is a disorder of the spine in which the vertebrae rotate , creating an “ S ” or “ C ” - shaped curve in the upper or lower back . Patients can experience a mild case of scoliosis with little pain or disfigurement or while a more severe case of scoliosis can resulting in pain and disfigurement that can cause difficulties walking and even breathing . What are the symptoms of scoliosis ? Scoliosis is a disorder of the spine in which the vertebrae rotate , creating an “ S ” or “ C ” - shaped curve in the upper or lower back . Patients can experience a mild case of scoliosis with little pain or disfigurement or while a more severe case of scoliosis can resulting in pain and disfigurement that can cause difficulties walking and even breathing . What are the symptoms of scoliosis ? Scoliosis can be a hidden disorder with no obvious symptoms , or it can cause severe disfigurement , pain and disability . Some patients can go for many years have with undetected scoliosis for many years until their curve starts to increase resulting and cause in pain . Some common symptoms include : One shoulder that appears to be higher than the other The pelvis that appears to be tilted An imbalance in the rib cage or other deformities along the back In more advanced cases , scoliosis patients have reported pain , limited movement , difficulty breathing and headaches What causes scoliosis ? The causes of scoliosis are not entirely understood . In fact , according to the Scoliosis Research Society , a specific cause is not known in eight of 10 cases . While many cases of scoliosis are thought to be genetic , there is no single cause that is widely agreed upon . However , we do know of several contributing causes : Heredity - Scoliosis does tend to run in families . It also tends to have different effects in each generation , perhaps even skipping generations . Degeneration - Adult scoliosis can be caused by disc degeneration , osteoporosis or osteomalacia , which is a softening of the bones . Spinal cord injury - Scoliosis can develop following spinal surgery or a trauma that results in a spinal cord injury . People who were diagnosed with polio may also develop scoliosis as a result of their paralysis . Congenital - Scoliosis can result from the improper formation of spinal bones during fetal development . Neuromuscular - Disorders of the nerve or muscular systems An abnormal nerve or muscle function can result in scoliosis caused due toby abnormalities in neuromuscular function . These disorders include : Neuropathic ( abnormal nerve function from diseases such as cerebral palsy ) or Myopathic ( abnormal muscle function from diseases such as muscular dystrophy ) . Research is being conducted to identify the specific genes associated with scoliosis in the hopes that we can better predict which curves are at highest risk for progression . How is scoliosis diagnosed ? The Baylor Scott & White Scoliosis Centers offer comprehensive diagnosis of each patient ' s specific spinal curvature through a physical examination of the back and extensive testing , including specialized X - rays . What are the different types of scoliosis ? Idiopathic Scoliosis - This literally means “ of undetermined cause . ” This type of scoliosis is thought to be genetic , involving involves multiple genes and a concept called variable penetrance meaning . This means that in each generation there is variability in how strongly the genes are expressed — or how severe the curve is . Infantile Idiopathic Scoliosis - Scoliosis that occurs from birth to three years of age . Juvenile Idiopathic Scoliosis - Scoliosis that occurs from three to 10 years of age . Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis - Scoliosis that occurs from 10 to 18 years of age . This is the most common scoliosis diagnosis in children , representing nearly 90 percent of cases . Adult Idiopathic Scoliosis - Scoliosis that occurs at 18 years and older . What are my scoliosis treatment options ? Generally , treatment for scoliosis includes observation , bracing and / or surgery . If left untreated , scoliosis can lead to a disfiguring curve , pain and limited mobility . How long does recovery take ? If you talk to our patients , what you will hear is that there are milestones of improvement . There is the first week leading up to discharge from the hospital : when a person can walk again and is eating regular food and putting on and taking off their brace , they really feel they ' ve made a great steps forward . Probably the second big milestone is likely to be discharge from rehab , and that ' s typically about two to two - and - a - half weeks total time from after surgery . The For adults in pain , what can you do ? Pain prevention is one of the main reasons your scoliosis should be treated . is needed is to manage or attempt to prevent pain . Pain is disruptive , and unrelenting pain not only affects affects your an individual ’ s personal and emotional life , it can . Pain can have major effects in many other aspects of a person ’ s life , as well . Our most important job is to find surgical solutions to attempt to remove or alleviate pain . How many physicians across the country specialize in scoliosis surgeries ? There are a small number of physicians in the United States who truly specialize in scoliosis surgery . What ’ s unique about the Baylor Scott & White Scoliosis Centers is that we provide care to patients with complex spinal curvatures and those who have had prior spine procedures . Why do so few doctors say adult scoliosis is treatable ? Scoliosis treatment technology has changed very rapidly , and there are ways to treat patients now that were n ’ t available in the past . Unfortunately , there is a lack of education , even in the medical community , about concerning the treatment of scoliosis . Our physicians are often featured speakers at national conferences and events to help educate pediatricians , primary care physicians and internal medicine specialists to help and to clarify some of the misinformation . The core strength of the Baylor Scott & White Scoliosis Centers is its staff . We have a dedicated Is scoliosis surgery covered by insurance ? Scoliosis surgery is an appropriate medical treatment and is , therefore , so it is covered by most insurance . Last year alone , we worked with 106 different insurance companies nationwide . We have significant skill in managing the maze that is the modern health insurance company industry . When you meet with scoliosis patients , what do you tell them ? Scoliosis patients typically bring two things to their initial office visit : the physical pain their scoliosis is causing and the emotional toll it is taking on them . One One of the most rewarding parts for our team of in treating scoliosis for our team is helping patients manage the emotional issues the they are enduring : how they feel about themselves and how they feel about their cosmetic appearance . to In an effort to help provide them our current patients with additional emotional support , we connect new patients with previous patients who are atin various stages Is there much scoliosis research going on ? What does the future hold ? There ' s been a dramatic explosion in the amount of research that is conducted in the field of scoliosis treatment . The goal of this research is to further understand the causes of scoliosis and the most beneficial clinical treatments . We ' re learning more and more about the fundamental molecular , genetic , and foundational causes of this disease . The future of scoliosis treatment lies in early genetic diagnosis and biopharmaceutical treatment of the growth abnormalities that can lead to the curvature of the spine . Learn more about clinical trials and research activities at the Is scoliosis surgery required for all adults who have it ? Scoliosis surgery is a serious procedure . Before any patient has any a scoliosis operation , the physician should explain what the risks and benefits of the procedure are . Our physicians spend a significant amount of time with patients to discussing the risks , benefits and possibilities of having undergoing scoliosis surgery . Our goal is to give them patients a complete understanding of the risks and outcomes . How long is an actual scoliosis surgery ? Scoliosis surgeries are complex and there are many steps to each operation . The operation in typically takes four to six hours . If the surgery must be performed from the front and back simultaneously , the surgery will take additional time . Are two scoliosis surgeries ever needed ? In some cases , adults need more than one procedure — meaning they need a specific type of procedure that is performed from the front and back simultaneously . Sometimes this can be accomplished simultaneously in a single combination operation , but other times it is best to separate the process into two procedures . What happens after surgery ? Following scoliosis surgery , technology and treatment options have dramatically changed for the better following scoliosis surgery . After surgery , patients are typically admitted to the intensive care unit ( ICU ) where they receive focused nursing care — one nurse per patient . A lot of emphasis is placed on patient management during this phase . The pain is treated precisely where it exists . A catheter is placed against the spinal cord and pain medication is pumped directly onto the cord , which reduces drowsiness so that the patient can follow requests or commands . The day Is the incidence of scoliosis the same among men and women ? The incidence of scoliosis in men and women is approximately the same . What is interesting , however , is that the progression rate is seven to eight times more common among females who were who were diagnosed with scoliosis as an adolescent or young adult than among boys who were diagnosed at the same age . We do n ' t yet understand what causes this phenomenon . Is scoliosis a progressive disease ? What we know about scoliosis is constantly changing . In the past , the accepted teaching was that , once a patient reaches adulthood , their curves become static and do not progress . For many patients , this is true . However , there is a subgroup of individuals whose curves continue to progress during adulthood . Years ago , physicians were taught that a 50 - degree thoracic curve typically does not increase in adulthood , but now we know that it can progress in some cases . There has been an evolution in what is known about What is the prognosis for an adult with scoliosis ? With adults , the prognosis can be more complicated . We typically see adult patients , particularly women , who fall into one of several categories : Young women with very large curves who have no pain . In these patients , the probability of the disease progressing is 80 or 90 percent , and if it remains goes untreated they may experience problems in later life . With these women , we discuss their treatment options on a case by case basis . Young women with a history of scoliosis who were told advised their curves would not progress in adulthood . These patients were typically did not experience back pain and were told their curves was were stable . and they do not experience back pain . However , following many of these women go on to experience symptoms during and after their second pregnancy . The primary hormone produced during pregnancy is progesterone , which may cause their scoliosis to progress . Also during pregnancy , the ligaments and joints become loosened in order for them to allow the pelvis to develop appropriately and a woman ’ s curve may start to progress and they begin leading her to experience Women with a small curvature of the spine that progresses throughout adulthood . In these cases , the progression of scoliosis does not seem to be related to pregnancy , but rather , in middle age , the patient experiences some spinal deformities which causes her clothes to fit differently and alters her physical appearance . The pain in such cases usually progresses and severely affects the woman ’ s quality of life . Can spinal injuries be caused from diseases such as a virus ? Polio was once one of the most common neurological causes of scoliosis . During the polio epidemic in the 1930 ’ s through the 1950 ’ s , it was very common for children to develop scoliosis . We see many of those patients as adults at the Baylor Scott & White Scoliosis Centers . Are there environmental factors that contribute to scoliosis ? Research into the environmental causes of scoliosis is ongoing and , while there have been some findings , a clear connection has not been established between scoliosis and medications or environmental factors yet . What other factors contribute to scoliosis ? The vast majority of patients with scoliosis fall under the category of what ’ s called idiopathic scoliosis . This simply means that we do n ' t know what causes it as opposed to cases that are due to neurological causes , congenital abnormalities , developmental issues or as the result of a traumatic injury to the spinal cord . In some cases , either the vertebrae are congenitally malformed or congenitally fused together , or the spinal cord developed incorrectly from birth , leading to very severe curves . Typically , there is an environmental cause for this Does scoliosis always appear in childhood ? Most people typically think of scoliosis as a childhood disease . In fact , scoliosis is commonly diagnosed in the juvenile and adolescent stages — ages 9 , 10 , 11 or 12 . There is , however , adult onset or degenerative scoliosis , which develops as a result of disc degeneration and is different from adolescent idiopathic scoliosis . Is scoliosis hereditary ? Scoliosis is thought to be genetic and tends to run in families . However , with each generation , there is a variability of how strongly the genes are expressed , which determines how severe the curve may be . For example , a mother may have a mild curve , but her daughter may have a very severe curve or a mother may have a severe curve and her grandchildren may develop scoliosis , but their parents did not . What are other common spine conditions ? The bones of the spine are arranged to give the spinal column stability . Damage or defects within the supporting structures of the lumbar spine ( the lower part of the back ) can often be the source of back pain resulting from : Herniated Disc Scheuermann ' s Kyphosis Spinal Stenosis Spondylolysis and Spondylolisthesis Request an appointment Scoliosis Care Common Questions Common Questions More | [

http://baynature.org/2014/02/07/hummingbirds-reuse-nests/ | Anna ’ s hummingbird nest . Photo : Jim Mullhaupt Do Hummingbirds Reuse Nests ? by Alessandra Bergamin February 7 , 2014 Heidi Becker from San Francisco sent in a question about an unfortunate tree pruning accident : Gosh darn it , I ’ m doing some heavy pruning on a tree and discovered a humming bird nest too late . A branch fell from above and the branch with the humming bird nest sprung and the eggs flew out , and broke . So sad . Will the hummingbirds re - use the nest ? I ’ ve completely ruined their habitat . No more cover , no more tiny twigs to perch on . Now I have a half pruned tree and do n ’ t know if I am suppose to finish it . I If this occurred within the past two and a half months ( December - February ) the hummingbird is most likely an Anna ’ s hummingbird , the earliest to breed in California , said Juan - Carlos Solis , director of education at Wildcare Some birds will return to the same nest and add to it from season to season , or from one clutch of eggs to the next . But hummingbird nests , made from sticks and cobwebs , are very fragile and often do not last past a single breeding season . Anna ’ s hummingbirds in California do not reuse nests but are known for “ recycling ” their own nest material or pirating that of others to rebuild an entirely new nest . “ It ’ s good practice to put the nest back as close to its original location as possible , even by wedging the branch in with the newly pruned branches , ” said Bob Power , the executive director of Santa Clara Valley Audubon Society . “ This may provide a valuable resource for the next hummingbird starting a nest in the area . ” Because it is early in the breeding season , the hummingbird may attempt a second nest possibly in the same garden , close to a good source of nectar and insects . But it ’ s unlikely the hummingbird will nest in exactly the same spot as before . “ If the nest was that severely disturbed , most likely the bird will try to re - nest somewhere else , ” said Michael Lynes , executive director of Golden Gate Audubon Society . Wildcare recommends trimming trees and shrubs between mid - October and the middle of January if possible . And as a reminder , check any branches or cavities for nesting birds or resting wildlife before pruning . Read more about hummingbird nests here A bird ? A bug ?

Gas grills are great for hot and fast cooking , but not so efficient when you need to turn a rack of ribs into tender , smoky barbecue . There are some tricks you can use to bbq ribs . To get the best possible ribs from your gas grill , all you need is this process . This example uses a full rack of trimmed spare ribs . You can use baby back ribs with this same method , but reduce the cooking time about 5 minutes per stage . As is , the total cooking time will be between 1 1 / 2 and 2 hours . Continue to 2 of 8 below . 02 of 08 What You Need Your gas grill must be large enough and contain at least two burners since these ribs will be cooked indirectly . This means the heat will not be below the rack of ribs , but off to the side . Gather these ingredients : One rack of pork ribs A good rib rub A good barbecue sauce for ribs 1 / 2 cup ( 120 mL ) apple juice Aluminum foil Fuel for your gas grill Wood chips or chunks for smoke A sharp knife Not using a gas grill ? Try barbecue ribs on a charcoal grill for even better results . Continue to 3 of 8 below . 03 Preparing the Rack Leah Maroney It is rare to find store - bought spareribs that are properly prepared . You will need to do some basic trimming before cooking . Ideally , what you ' re looking for is a rack of ribs with a square shape and an even thickness throughout . Make sure you inspect the ribs for any loose pieces of meat , fat , or bone . Cut off any excess scraps or excessive fat from the rack . This does n ' t mean cutting all the fat off , just reduce the thicker parts . Since we are grilling these ribs faster than we would on the smoker , the benefit of the fat is n ' t as great . You need fat to keep the meat moist , but you do n ' t want to end up with an overly fatty finished product . Once done trimming , rinse the rack of ribs with cold water and pat dry with paper towels . Continue to 4 of 8 below . 04 Rubbing the Ribs Once the ribs are trimmed and rinsed , it is time to apply the rub . A good rib rub adds flavor but does n ' t overpower the meat . You want to apply the rub evenly over the meat . This means back and front as well as the sides and ends . Apply as much rub as will stick , letting the excess fall away . The natural moisture of the ribs will hold all the rub you need . You can apply the rub up to an hour before you start cooking , but any longer will affect the texture of the meat , giving it a ham - like flavor and texture . If you need to return the rack to the refrigerator after putting on the rub , wrap it tightly with plastic wrap and handle it gently . Preferably , try to get the ribs to the grill within 10 to 20 minutes of applying the rub . Continue to 5 of 8 below . 07 Wrap the Ribs Once the ribs have been on the grill for 30 minutes , it is time to move on to the second stage . The ribs should be browned on all sides . If they appear raw on the surface anywhere continued grilling for another 10 to 15 minutes , otherwise , move on to the second phase . This step makes the ribs tender by steaming them with apple juice . The secret is to wrap the ribs tightly in foil . You want to make it as watertight as possible after pouring in the apple juice . With a tightly wrapped packet , place the ribs back on the grill in the indirect grilling space . Now close the lid and increase the grill temperature to around 375 degrees Fahrenheit . At this temperature , the apple juice will boil , tenderizing the ribs , and cooking them quickly . Continue to 8 of 8 below . | [

We may receive commissions on purchases made from our chosen links . Best Overall : Weber Smokey Mountain 18 Inch Smoker Very Good Buy on Amazon Buy on Walmart It would seem almost insane to change a smoker as popular at Weber ' s Smokey Mountain ( WSM ) Smoker , but Weber has listened to the fans and made only slight ( requested ) changes to this unit . The addition of a lid mounted thermometer and a bottom mounted heat shield does n ' t affect how this unit works but gives you a better smoker . In the past , you either had to drill a hole and put in your own thermometer or set one inside and lift the lid to check the temperature . Best 3 - in - 1 : Napoleon Apollo 3 - in - 1 Smoker Buy on Amazon Buy on Walmart The Napoleon Apollo 3 - in - 1 takes the simple , vertical water smoker to a whole new level . Also known as the ProQ , this three - section smoker can be reduced to a simple charcoal grill or assembled to a large capacity charcoal smoker . Loaded with features , this unit is capable or smoking up a large amount of food , or small load without wasting lots of extra charcoal . Standard with a bar in the lid for hooks to hang racks of ribs or sausages , eyelets for meat probes , and a good airflow system . All of the body connection points can cause it to leak smoke , but that is typical of this kind of smoker Best Charcoal : Pit Barrel Cooker The Pit Barrel Cooker is a simple , easy to use charcoal unit that can cook up to eight racks of ribs at once . Designed to operate consistently at around 300 degrees F . , this cooker needs very little attention and can be relied upon to turn out some great food in a relatively short period of time . While there are those that might argue that it is n ' t a real smoker , it does create smokey flavors and great food . Best for Smoke Flavor : Big Chief Front Load Smoker Buy on Jet For smoking large cuts of great barbecue buy a different smoker . For nearly 55 years the Big Chief , and its little brother , the Little Chief , have been designed for smoking all those things that do n ' t traditionally fall into the strict category of barbecue . For smoking fish , jerky , sausage , cheese , this is the perfect smoker . The lower cooking temperatures , that ca n ' t be adjusted , and decent smoke production is great for preserving foods and adding smoke flavor to things you might not cook , or might finish off someplace else . Continue to 5 of 9 below . Best Gas : Smoke Hollow 44 - Inch Gas Smoker The biggest limitation of gas smokers is the range of temperatures they can hit and the fact that most of them leak smoke and heat through the doors . The Smoke Hollow 44 - inch smoker does n ' t have these problems . The doors latch closed tightly and the dual burner design gives it a much wider range of temperatures . It is also a very large smoker , standing 5 feet high with five racks and seven cubic feet of capacity . If there is a problem with this smoker you probably wo n ' t see it for a few years . The lightweight burners and thinner metals shorten the life expectancy of this smoker . Care should be taken to keep it in good working order . Read more reviews of the best gas smokers available to purchase online . Best Versatile : Camp Chef Smoke Vault 24 One of the problems with gas smokers is that the heat output can be limited by a factory who thinks they know best . While smoking is done in a specific temperature range , it should be up to the user if they want to " flash " smoke or do a low - temperature smoke . This Camp Chef smoker has a temperature range from 160 to 400 degrees F so it is much more versatile than many gas smokers on the market . However , like many most box style gas smokers , the body is n ' Best Value : Char - Griller Smokin ' Pro The Char - Griller is another classic offset firebox smoker . This design is so popular because it works . The Char - Griller is easy to use and you can even get a rotisserie kit for it . Like all units of this type , it also doubles as a charcoal grill . It is also one of the least expensive of this type of smoker Best Splurge : Char - Broil Deluxe Digital Electric Smoker 725 Inch Buy on Jet Char - Broil is , of course , one of the leading names in outdoor cooking and while they have been able to produce some innovative products , they tend to have difficulty in the follow - through . This model , part of a large line of electric refrigerator style smokers , has digital controls and an insulated construction that promises to make it easy to use and efficient , and generally , it is . For under $ 400 this little smoker has good capacity and a great line of features and if yours works well , it Continue to 9 of 9 below . Best Large Capacity : Dyna - Glo 36 in . Vertical Off - Set Charcoal Smoker Buy on Home Depot This vertical smoker has an offset smoke box that helps keep excess heat away from the food to avoid overcooking the items at the bottom , while also sending tasty smoke to the entire cooking box . The six adjustable cooking grates allow you to adjust the height of the cooking space for foods of different thicknesses , so you can have thin filets on one rack , large chickens on another , and a wheel of cheese or a bowl of salt on another rack , with less wasted space between the foods . There is a total of 1176 square inches of cooking space , so you can smoke up to 150 pounds of food in one session . The exterior of this smoker is powder - coated steel and the wood chip box smoking is porcelain enameled steel , so this smoker will still look good after many years of use . The sturdy handles make it easy to move the smoker to the perfect spot for cooking , and the integrated thermometer lets you monitor temperature without opening a door . For sure you ’ ll appreciate the grease system that collects both food drippings and condensation from the inside of the cooking chamber , so cleanup is fast and easy . Products Tested by The Spruce How We Tested We bought a top - rated smoker under $ 400 and our reviewers spent more than 80 hours testing it . We asked our testers to consider the most important features when using this smoker , from portability to fuel type , and have outlined them here so that you , too , know what to look for when shopping . What to Look for in a Smoker Under $ 400 Fuel type Sure , you ’ ll use wood to create the smoke in any of these smokers , but you have choices as to how that wood gets its heat . Electric smokers are convenient , while charcoal is more traditional . Gas grills offer yet another option . Since it ’ s wood that provides the flavor , the fuel choice is more about personal preference . Portability While you likely wo n ’ t be moving your smoker very far , you may decide to keep it in storage when it ’ s not in use , or you might want the option to move it to a better spot in the yard when the wind suddenly shifts . Think about whether you ’ ll be able to move the smoker by yourself or will need a helping hand . Ability to cold smoke Most smokers have no problem with hot smoking but cold smoking is a little trickier . Do you want to cold smoke salmon or bacon , or are you more interested in smoking and cooking slabs of ribs or large hunks of brisket for dinner ? If cold smoking is n ’ t something you plan on exploring , then you need n ’ t look for smokers with that option . Test Results : Weber Smokey Mountain 18 - Inch Smoker ( Best Overall ) Very Good What We Like Great performance Builds heat effectively Reliable built - in thermometer What We Do n ' t Like Instructions could be clearer for beginners Does n ’ t always fully seal One of our reviewers tried out this smoker with chicken , ribs , and vegetables . While he noted that the instructions were n ’ t “ at a dummy - proof level , ” he thought that , overall , it was a good size for a small dinner party . One tester also loved that it was versatile : “ The fact that this can easily be used as a standard grill means you can cook foods other than those that need to be smoked , ” she said . “ It ’ ll also come in handy | [

http://bc.ctvnews.ca/young-woman-assaulted-outside-caprice-nightclub-dies-in-hospital-1.3026140 | Young woman assaulted outside Caprice nightclub dies in hospital Victim of brutal nightclub beating dies The fight that spilled out of the Caprice nightclub this week started over something trivial , according to police . CTV Vancouver Published Friday , August 12 , 2016 7 : 34AM PDT Last Updated Friday , August 12 , 2016 1 : 15PM PDT A 28 - year - old woman who was “ viciously ” assaulted outside a nightclub on the Granville Street strip early Thursday morning has succumbed to her injuries . The fight broke out between two women inside the Caprice nightclub around 2 a.m. but quickly ended up on the sidewalk outside . People who watched the violence said one of the women collapsed on the ground and was unconscious as another woman punched and kicked her . The victim , who officers say did not know her aggressors , was rushed to hospital in critical condition . She passed away Thursday night . Police say the victim was a contributing member of society with no police history or history of getting into trouble . She was at the Caprice with friends the night of the incident , when a fight allegedly broke out over something “ very trivial . ” “ In all accounts this is a really tragic set of circumstances , ” said VPD Sgt . Brian Montague . “ Those that witnessed it are very disturbed by what they saw . The staff at the Caprice nightclub is very upset by what they witnessed . ” Police say the bouncer stepped in to stop the fight , and the two female suspects , ages 25 and 29 , fled the scene in a cab before emergency crews arrived . About half an hour later , two women were taken into custody as they exited a cab near Hastings and Abbott streets . Police said they believe the women were involved in the attack . The suspects were interviewed , and have since been released . Police say there is no reason to believe the two women , one of whom is from Vancouver and one of whom is from outside the Lower Mainland , pose a risk to public safety . Alcohol has been deemed a factor in the altercation , police added , but it is not yet clear if the victim consumed alcohol or not . Montague said that an autopsy will be done to ensure the victim did not die of underlying medical conditions . Charges have not yet been laid , but he fully expects that will happen at some point down the road – potentially manslaughter . “ When these things happen , we will identify you , we will catch you , and we will hold you accountable , and you will find yourself in Criminal or Civil court – or both , ” said Montague , noting that one of the women appears to have been the lead aggressor in the incident . “ Virtually every case of a violent incident on the Granville Mall has been solved . ” This is Vancouver ’ s fifth homicide of the year . Investigators continue to interview witnesses , and are reviewing video captured both inside and outside of the club . Anyone with more information is asked to contact officers at 604 - 717 - 2500 or call Crime Stoppers anonymously at 1 - 800 - 222 - 8477 ( TIPS ) .

http://bc.library.uu.nl/utrecht-psalter.html | The Utrecht Psalter The Utrecht Psalter is the pride of Utrecht University and its University Library The special value of this manuscript is undisputed In October 2015 it was inscribed in UNESCOs Memory of the World Register for Documentary Heritage Read all about this in the news room release You will find a brief overview of the content and history of the Utrecht Psalter on this page for more detailed information and the digital annotated edition see wwwutrechtpsalternl For most people the first introduction to the Utrecht Psalter is not necessarily a revealing experience The manuscript does not expose its beauty and meaning straight away You have to get to know the Utrecht Psalter and only then will it intrigue you and you must learn its story to be able to understand the impact of this amazing manuscript Not many people are aware of the fame of the Utrecht Psalter Why is it that this widely praised manuscript is still relatively unknown Shamefaced And then I once again blush for shame when I remember the librarian from Poitiers in 1948 who treated me with awe because I came from the city of the Utrecht Psalter the existence of which I was not even aware of These words are from the memoirs of the mathmatician Hans Freudenthal published in 1987 It gives an apt description of the way in which the Utrecht Psalter is world famous among experts but hardly among the general public Many specialists have endorsed the claim that the Utrecht Psalter is an absolute masterpiece of Western medieval art The last 150 years it has been carefully examined by leading art historians and other researchers leading to quite a few controversies The attention the manuscript has received may even be called exceptional Scholarly interest The Utrecht Psalter is one of the first manuscripts which has been reproduced fully in photographic facsimile This was done in 1873 at the request of the British government and led directly to the founding of the London Palaeographical Society In 1984 a colour facsimile was published In 1932 and 1994 facsimiles were also published containing only the illustrations No other manuscript has ever been published four times in facsimile which says a lot about the importance attached to the Utrecht Psalter In addition six scholarly monographs were published about the manuscript De Gray Birch 1876 Tikkanen 1903 De Wald The Utrecht Psalter in medieval art picturing the psalms of David in the Utrecht museum Het Catharijneconvent Of course the Utrecht Psalter is also included in IF Walther Codices illustres The worlds most famous illuminated manuscripts 400 to 1600 2001 It is also pictured in standard works read by thousands of students for instance Barbara Rosenweins A short history of the Middle Ages 3rd ed 2009 or Peter Browns The rise of Western Christianity rev ed 2013 A famous manuscript The Utrecht Psalter is the most valuable manuscript to be found in any Dutch collection There is no single other manuscript in a Dutch collection so much written about and of which so many reproductions have been published both in print and digitally on the Internet As far as the medieval illuminated manuscripts are concerned only two manuscripts yield more references in Google Scholar summer 2013 the Book of Kells digital edition in Trinity College Dublin which is generally considered to be the most beautiful manuscript from the early Middle Ages and the Lindisfarne Gospels digital edition in the British Library both are insular manuscripts As for scholarly references the Utrecht Psalter falls in the same category as the Très Belles Heures de Duc de Berry by the Limbourg brothers which is generally viewed as the most beautiful manuscript from the late Middle Ages and yet relatively unknown The Utrecht Psalter does not enjoy the same status as the manuscripts mentioned above enjoy in Ireland England and France which is partly due to the fact that it is not a Utrecht or even a Dutch manuscript It was made in or near Reims in about the second quarter of the 9th century and ended up in Utrecht by chance It has no national significance as it were In addition the Utrecht Psalter lacks the exuberant colourfulness the intriguing patterns or the shining gold with the exception of a few leaves the other manuscripts show Besides a famous manuscript Power of expression To explain the fascination for the Utrecht Psalter among scholars it is important to present the manuscript in such a way that its power of expression is well revealed That power of expression mainly originates from the 166 pen drawings which accompany the text of each of the 150 psalms and the sixteen added biblical hymn texts the socalled cantica Here the question is not only how they have been pictured in relation to their context what is depicted in what way and in which composition but also in relation to the style used Surrealistic style Although probably eight artists have worked on the 166 illustrations their style is relatively uniform This style has been described as nervous dynamic surrealistic and baroque and the images sometimes evoke comparisons with the work of Hieronymus Bosch It is the high point of the Reims school from the beginning and the middle of the 9th century a period in which also other manuscripts and objects were made there Anyone who studies the drawings in detail and links them to the text will discover how refined and spectacular they are and as a result will be drawn into the masterpiece Staged A comparison between the drawings in the Utrecht Psalter with those in other manuscripts from the same or previous periods shows clearly their originality innovation and modernity It is as if art has made a big leap forward as if a revolution has taken place in the almost sketchlike depiction of the scenes illustrating the psalm verses We see buildings landscapes and heavens full of kings soldiers angels saints sinners craftsmen musicians children or a selection from the animal kingdom Christ the psalmist or David often play central parts But also Atlas the mouth of the Hell or demons with Brought to life Bringing psalms to life is not the easiest job because they lack a narrative structure How were the artists supposed to show the cries for help and pleas of the psalmist to be delivered from his enemies as well as his meditations his prayers eulogies and complaints One of the options was to illustrate the concrete images evoked by isolated words or verses in the psalm texts The artists of the Utrecht Psalter have succeeded in fully picturing the elements in the psalm texts which allowed and evoked literal illustrations They combined these illustrations in carefully composed drawings which are The first psalm pictured Let us take the first psalm as an example cf Van der Horst et al 1996 5657 The text is on fol 2r and differs in some places from the standard text of the Bible common nowadays The picture on fol 1v is the only one which fills the whole page To the left we see the happy blessed man the beatus vir from verse one holding a book and contemplating Gods law verse 2 He does so night and day as can be seen from the sun moon and stars at the top He keeps his distance from the sinners who are in the seat of pestilence in cathedra pestilentiae These are on the top right and are clearly armed Small snakes crawl upwards via the right column near the chair However the beatus vir is planted like a tree near running water verse 3 as we can see in the middle left The lawless however are spread by the wind like chaff verse 4 To the right of the tree we see the wind personified by a blowing head causing the armed figures in the middle to stagger They do not succeed to stand where Gods law reigns verse 5 and their road comes to a dead end verse 6 We see them helped by winged demons being driven in to the mouth of Hell They are doomed Questions All 150 psalms and 16 canticles are pictured in this way The combination of the intellectual program to accomplish this and the innovative and imaginative style make the Utrecht Psalter so fascinating To scholars questions arise as to who made this where when for whom and why and where the artists got their inspiration from These questions have led to a long series of researches interpretations and discussions The previously mentioned The Utrecht Psalter in medieval art picturing the psalms of David from 1996 gives the latest updates in most respects even though discussions still remain about the dating and the interpretation of certain illustrations on which no consensus is reached as yet Origins Most experts agree that the Utrecht Psalter was made in 820830 in Reims or in the nearby abbey of Hautvilliers and was perhaps commissioned by archbishop Ebbo It may have been a gift for Charlemagnes son Louis the Pious his wife Judith or else their newborn son the later emperor Charles the Bald Specialists point to the late Roman iconography and the use of the late Roman capitalis rustica as script to show that the illustrations are partly based on one or more models from the 5th century However there is no question of mere copying the illustrations show all kinds of Carolingian elements interests and interpretations Some even suspect political messages in certain illustrations Influence The Reims style of the Utrecht Psalter but certainly also the illustrations of certain psalms remained a source of inspiration for years to come especially at the court of Charles the Bald d 877 For reasons still unknown the manuscript ended up in Canterbury around the year 1000 where it was a direct inspiration for the production of the Harley Psalter 11th century the Eadwine Psalter 12th century and the Paris AngloCatalan Psalter 12th century The Utrecht Psalter became a trendsetter and influenced the making of other psalters for centuries to come and that is exceptional where manuscripts are concerned On its way to Utrecht After the Reformation the manuscript came into the hands of the famous collector Robert Cotton d 1631 who had it rebound and added twelve leaves of a Gospel from Northumbria made in the early 8th century the fragments of an equally remarkable manuscript Also the theft of the Psalter from Cottons collection and how it arrived in the Netherlands is a remarkable story Finally it came into the hands of the Utrecht citizen Willem de Ridder who gave it to the University Library in the Janskerk in 1716 That is why it is called the Utrecht Psalter Controversies The Utrecht Psalter contains a copy of the socalled Athanasian Creed which caused a heated discussion in Great Britain around 1870 did this text also known as Quicumque vult belong to the early Christian doctrine or not If so it belonged to the Anglican service even though the text was a thorn in the flesh of many Anglicans The date of the Utrecht Psalter late Roman or Carolingian containing the Quicumque vult fol 90v91r had to give the answer Hence the British government asked the Utrecht University permission for producing a facsimile in London so that it could be studied more extensively And so the manuscript came in the limelight Even though the final conclusion was that the Utrecht Psalter dated back to the 9th century the Athanasian Creed kept its place in the Anglican Church The disputes the manuscript still creates nowadays is mainly battled out among art historians A new presentation Until recently a facsimile was essential to researchers who wanted to study the manuscript without having to travel to Utrecht However the number of editions was limited In 1996 Utrecht University Library made a digital facsimile on CDROM later also online which was very innovative in its time Next to the digital picture of the pages the text of the psalm in question could be found in Latin Dutch English and French By clicking on a psalm verse a frame appeared around the illustration belonging

http://bcfootandankle.com/surgery/faqs/ | Surgery FAQs Frequently Asked Questions About Foot & Ankle Surgery How long after surgery will my stitches be removed ? You will be given a postoperative instruction sheet that will tell you when to have your sutures ( stitches ) removed . Generally , stitches will be removed approximately 14 days ( give or take a few days ) after surgery . You will be asked to return to the Foot & Ankle Clinic at St . Paul ’ s Hospital for your stitches to be removed . Your appointment at the Foot & Ankle Clinic should be made through your surgeon ’ s office . Please do not go to your family physician , a walk in clinic or an emergency department to have your stitches removed – contact your surgeon ’ s office What may cause my surgery to be cancelled ? Smoking or using any other form of nicotine ( e.g. patches , nicotine gum ) within 6 weeks of surgery . Eating prior to surgery . Do not eat or drink after midnight , the night before your surgery is scheduled . Lack of hospital beds for those patients required to stay in the hospital after surgery . Medical conditions arising AFTER your pre - admission clinic visit : infected ingrown toe nails and skin infections . Colds leading to fever , chills and phlegm . Chest pain and any new heart condition . Please contact your surgeon ’ s office or the pre - admission clinic at St . Paul ’ s to discuss a condition that will affect your surgery . Ultimately , your surgeon will determine if surgery is appropriate . How long will it take for me to recover from my surgery ? It will take three to six months before you feel a definite improvement in the comfort of your foot . The swelling may take over a year to settle down . The range of motion may also take over a year to improve . When can I start driving again ? Your surgeon CAN NOT determine when you are safe to drive . However , you probably wo n ’ t be able to drive for about 10 weeks after surgery . After 10 weeks you should demonstrate to a friend or family member than you can safely drive . If you have any questions about your ability to drive , please contact an ICBC driver licensing office . When can I return to work ? Your return to work is dependent upon the occupation you have , the surgery performed , the amount of pain you experience , and if there are any complications from surgery ( e.g. delayed bone healing ) . Some patients may return to work during the non - weight bearing period after surgery . The non - weight bearing period differs depending on the operation you ’ ve had . Some patients ’ work demands ( e.g. logging , construction ) will require full recovery before they can return to work . In some cases the surgery will not allow Consider the following to help you determine if you ’ re ready to return to work : Can you work while not bearing weight on the foot ? If so , pain will be the main limiting factor . It is unlikely that you will be able to work for at least three weeks after the surgery . If you have to bear weight on the foot and you have had a fusion , it will take you three months , minimum , to be able to bear weight on the foot . It will usually take six weeks after that to be comfortable enough to return to work . If the pain is slow to go away , it may take longer . If you develop a nonunion ( the bones are taking longer than usual to join ) then it may take up to a year off work to recover if the surgery has to be Discuss the timing of the surgery with your boss and your surgeon , who may be able to change the date of your surgery to accommodate your work . Try to sort out disability forms and payments before your surgery . Make sure you know what you are eligible for with your medical plan . Will the screws in my foot trigger the metal detector at the airport ? Usually , screws and any hardware used in your operation will NOT trigger the alarm at the security gate . If the alarm does ring , you will be required to show your surgery scar . The security guard will wave the metal detector over your scar . You do NOT require a letter from your surgeon stating you have had surgery . | [

http://bchuntingblog.com/blog/2011/02/05/field-judging-black-bear-size/ | Field Judging Black Bear Size February 5 , 2011 By Bchunting 9 Comments Field judging Black Bears can sometimes be difficult even for the most experienced of bear hunters . The animal you are judging is usually completely black aside from color phase bears , they have thick fur and the shadows they create can be decieving . With that said there are a few methods you can have at your disposal to help you determine if the bear is a shooter or not . So how can you improve your skills at judging trophy black bear size in the field ? First of all … . Determine what you ’ re going to be doing with this bear . A : I will be shooting this bear for the meat . B : I will be shooting this bear for the hide / skull / trophy . ( you have to take the meat to in BC ) If you answered A : Then your field judging is dirt simple . Make sure the bear is NOT in a family group ( sow with cubs ) and the closer to a road the better . That was easy , was n ’ t it ? ? ! If you answered B : Then you ’ ve got a bit of a tougher job to learn to observe and determine what you are looking at . The good news is , the more bears you are able to get close to and observe , the easier this practice becomes . Let ’ s Get Started . Check Out The Bears Head : Big Bears : Will have a very large , blocky looking head . Their ears will look small , and almost off to the side of their skull a little . On really big boars you might even see a crease down the center of their forehead , if that ’ s the case , it ’ s a good bear . Other features to look for on a bears head would be scarring around the face , boars have ferocious fights , so it ’ s not uncommon for them to have plenty of battle scars around their muzzle , eyes and Small Bears : Will have a small , narrow head , almost dog like . Their ears will appear to be much larger and defined . Almost like “ Mickey Mouse ” is a common description among many experienced bear hunters . Check Out The Bears Behavior : Big Bears : Big dominant boars , behave like big dominant boars . And they usually wo n ’ t be in much of a hurry unless they know you ’ re there and you ’ ve spooked him . When big boars walk they will sometimes have a big swagger to their stride , much moreso then a bear who ’ s on the submissive end of the spectrum . When I shot my first Island Black Bear we watched him stand up on two legs and scratch his back on a tree for a couple minutes , without a care in Small Bears : Are very cautious , they will get out of your way quickly ( so will a big old boar too if he ’ s spooked ) . They will usually always be more alert then a dominant bear because they have to be , or they could become dinner . Smaller bears will often seek the safety of a tree when in trouble or they just wo n ’ t stop running until they hit the coast . When small bears run , they will appear much more agile then a larger bear . They will will look more like * Tip – When you ’ re observing a bear , and he / she does n ’ t appear to be spooked , sit there and watch them for 1 / 2 hour or so . Bears are pretty fascinating creatures when you watch them do their thing , and by observing you ’ ll learn more about them and that makes the hunt more fun . Check Out The Bears Body : Sometimes the big boys are called “ belly draggers ” for a reason , and it ’ s possible for Island Bears to get this big . Big Boars may appear to be so big , you ca n ’ t see underneath their body when they are moving around . That ’ s a big bear ! If the bear you ’ re looking at appears to have long legs , it ’ s probably because he has a smaller body in proportion . Big bears will have very muscular looking arms and legs , especially their front shoulders Can you picture the size of a really large breed dog ? OK . That ’ s about the size of an “ average ” Island Black Bear . An average Island Bear will weigh 150 - 250lbs . An large 6 ’ + boar could likely weigh 300 + and the big bears do look much different as you can see in the photos . What Are Some Additional Signs Of A Big Bear ? If it ’ s a big bear you ’ re after then you need to pay attention to the sign you see around you . Tracks and Scat are very good indicators as to the potential size of a bear , and will let you know if a particular bear is frequenting an area . Judging Bear Size From Tracks : This method was shown to me by my Father who was a big game guide for nearly 30 years . It has since been shown to me by several taxidermists and many more experienced bear hunters than I so I believe in this method . If you can find fresh bear tracks in an area , maybe mud or soft sand ( common where we hunt spring bear on the Island ) measure the distance across the front pad and simply add 1 . This will give you a rough “ square ” of the bear . So if you measure the bear track and it came out at 5 ″ inches across , you would add 1 and could guesstimate that bear was roughly a 6 ′ foot bear . I have tried this method on many of our harvested black bears and I have to say it ’ s pretty damn close ! The only problem with this method is you need to find the bear that left the track ! Judging Bear Size From Scat : Spend a couple days bear hunting on the Island and you ’ ll observe several dozen or so piles of bear scat scattered across the road . Not only can they help you see what the bears are eating but they can give you a pretty good indicator as to the size of the bear that left it . Here ’ s a tip for you . It ’ s not necessarily the size of the pile … It ’ s the diameter of the nuggets ! A really BIG bear has a really big butt and it ’ s not uncommon for them to leave scat the diameter of a beer can behind ! If you look at 10 piles of bear scat and then come across the one left by the big kahuna trust me … You ’ ll Know ! If you discover an area that has BIG tracks and some BIG ( large diameter ) scat , then it might be worth hunting that area a little harder . Big Island Black Bears do n ’ t have enormous ranges and unless you ’ ve spooked them heavily they will keep coming back to the same places to feed . Hopefully you found article helpful and through experience you ’ ll become a much better bear hunter . Because of their abundance it ’ s pretty easy to rack up experience if you ’ ve got the time to put a couple weekends in every year and then the patience to watch and observe what goes on around you . Pay attention to the sign , and have a good time out there ! Carl BCHuntingBlog Filed Under : Hunting Tips Tagged With : Black Bear Hunting Vancouver Island Hunting | [

http://bdturnkeyengines.com/sd-vs-maf | TUNING – SPEED DENSITY vs MAF BD Turnkey Engines will be SHIPPED with a Speed - Density / CLOSED Loop tune This topic is VERY debatable . An Internet research will often leave you with more questions than answers . Continue reading , and I will do my best to explain and substantiate why I feel a Speed - Density / Closed Loop fuel injection system is most appropriate for aftermarket projects . Speed Density / CLOSED Loop Tuning : This is the fuel injection system that I prefer for aftermarket projects . It utilizes every sensor except the MAF ( mass air flow ) . The O2 sensors adjust fuel below PE ( power enrichment ) , and above PE fuel is calculated from a table using the TPS , MAP , RPM , etc . This system DOES adjust with altitude via the MAP ( Manifold Absolute Pressure ) sensor . The MAP sensor is also used as a BARO ( Barometric ) Sensor . As you gain or loose altitude the ECM will “ shift ” the fuel calculations . NO MAF Reasoning : The MAF sensor accurately measures the volume of incoming air when properly calibrated . Its data helps the ECM adjust the amount of fuel delivered to maximize fuel efficiency and minimize emissions . But , it does this best when at a steady - state , i.e. constant throttle at highway or cruise speeds . In transient situations , i.e. on / off the throttle the MAF becomes inaccurate and the ECM has to calculate or estimate these changes . For offroad , racing , rock crawling , and most aftermarket situations , steady - state driving is minimal . Without a MAF I can guarantee that your engine will run identical to the test engine that the tune was derived from . Speed Density / OPEN Loop Tuning : This is often what many are referring to when the term “ Speed Density ” is used , and it has a somewhat negative connotation to most . It was one of the first injection systems and does NOT utilize O2 sensors and does NOT compensate for altitude or barometric changes . In simple terms , it is an electronic carburetor that injects fuel based on a fuel map relative to throttle position , intake vacuum , & rpm only . It is still used in boats today and some turnkey engine builders still use it . MAF Tune : If you insist on using the MAF I can incorporate it and supply you with it . If you need to comply with most SMOG laws it is best to run a MAF . You will need to closely follow the guidelines of intake design that is in my manual . This will closely replicate the factory layout and help the data from the MAF be close to factory figures . Despite what many think , MAF tunes on GM cars from 1998 - 2006 use a combination of “ Speed Density ” calculations with the addition of a MAF to fine - tune . The base in the tune is “ Speed Density ” ! If you unplug the MAF sensor your car still runs . You will get a “ check engine ” light , but the system reverts to the “ Speed Density ” tune and runs fine . Conclusion : Your BD Turnkey Engine is going to run VERY good when you get it . You will be surprised at how good without a MAF because of the highly polished tune . I run my personal car without a MAF , as do many drag racers , offroaders , etc . This comes from many hours of tuning that particular engine combination . And that is what you are getting – a duplicate engine & tune ! | [

http://beachapedia.org/Health_Threats_from_Polluted_Coastal_Waters | Health Threats from Polluted Coastal Waters From Beachapedia By Christian Landon Beach closure due to sewage spill . Source : AP Photo / Gregory Bull . Introduction Recreational use of ponds , rivers , lakes , and the ocean remains immensely popular in the U.S. and includes activities such as swimming , surfing , snorkeling , paddling , and diving . According to the National Survey on Recreation and Environment ( NSRE ) , more than 143 million people in the U.S. ( 61 % of the population over the age 16 ) use surface waters to engage in non - motorized water sports . While some pollutants in the water are easily identifiable and avoidable , such as plastic and garbage , unseen microbial threats continue Health Effects Swimming in polluted water exposes recreational users to these disease causing microorganisms , called pathogens , which are associated with a range of enteric and non - enteric illnesses . Enteric simply means residing in the human intestines , and the most common recreational water illness ( RWI ) is acute gastrointestinal illness ( AGI ) . AGI Symptoms include : nausea , vomiting , diarrhea , stomachache , and fever . Many different types of pathogens in polluted water ( such as bacteria , viruses , and protozoa ) can cause AGI and other serious infectious diseases . In addition to AGI , bacterial exposure can cause salmonellosis and cholera , viruses can cause respiratory infections and hepatitis , and protozoans can cause dysentery , cryptosporidiosis , and giardiasis . Although rare , deadly infectious agents such as MRSA , V . Vulnificus ( “ flesh - eating bacteria ” ) , and Leptospira can be contracted from swimming in polluted recreational waters . Non - enteric illnesses include ear , eyes , nose , and throat infections . Fortunately , most RWI cases are mild and non - serious . AGI typically requires little - to - no treatment and generally does not have long - term health effects . However , vulnerable populations such as children , the elderly , and those with weak immune symptoms are more likely to develop severe illness when infected . Those who frequent the water more often , like avid swimmers and surfers , also face an increased risk of infection . Although RWIs are generally mild , they are uncomfortable and widespread . Researchers estimate that 90 million RWIs occur annually and cost the U.S. economy $ 2.2 - $ 3.7 billion each year . Furthermore , a recent meta - analysis of 19 research studies was conducted on the risk of RWI infections for bathers vs non - bathers ( “ bathing ” was defined as any recreational activity taking place in or on natural bodies of untreated water , such as the sea and lakes ) . The results were statistically significant and provide the strongest evidence to date of this association . The study found that bathers had a 86 Routes of Exposure In the field of exposure science there are four main ways in which pathogens enter the human body , referred to as ‘ routes of exposure ’ . The main routes are ingestion , inhalation , and dermal contact . For recreational water user ’ s , ingestion is the most common route of exposure ( which is why it is recommended you avoid swallowing the water ) . When you ingest contaminated water , you expose yourself to AGI causing pathogens such as V . cholera , salmonella , E . coli , norovirus , and rotavirus among many Although less frequent ( but often more severe ) , pathogen exposure through inhalation and dermal contact does occur in recreational waters . The deadly bacteria species , legionella , thrives in the mist of warm freshwaters and enters the lungs when tiny legionella - containing water droplets are inhaled . It is most often found in public spas , hot springs , rivers , and lakes , but outbreaks have occurred at beach shower facilities . Staphylococcus Aureus ( S . aureus ) is a common strain of bacteria that resides on the skin ( approximately 30 % of the U.S. population is colonized with it ) . Colonization of the skin itself is not harmful and staph infections generally result in minor skin conditions ; however , if S . aureus makes its way deeper in the body and enters the bloodstream through a wound , deadly infections can occur . This is especially true with the emergence of methicillin - resistant staphylococcus aureus ( MRSA ) . Normally staph infections are treated with routine antibiotics ( methicillin ) , but recently , strains of staph have become resistant to these antibiotics which makes the infection increasingly hard to treat . MRSA infections used to occur most frequently in healthcare facilities , but now it is increasingly spreading into the community and environment . Not only have MRSA and S . Aureus been isolated from the sand and water at saltwater beaches , but a 2017 study in Ohio found isolates in the sand and water of freshwater beaches as well . The researches found S . aureus Sources of Pathogen Filled Pollution Exposure to sewage - polluted water is the most common source of illness in recreational water users , even swallowing a small amount may induce sickness . Sewage often contains the disease - causing pathogens previously mentioned ( bacteria , viruses , and protozoa ) . Sewage makes its way to our oceans most commonly through sewage overflows , polluted stormwater runoff , malfunctions in treatment plants , boating waste , and septic systems malfunctions . Pollution levels after a storm are particularly concerning . During and after heavy rainfall , rainwater flowing towards the beach and down stormwater drains Unfortunately , not all health departments issue rain advisories or post signs ; in addition , most agencies only test the waters for enterococcus ( in salt water ) and E . coli ( in freshwater ) . This leaves levels of other toxins and pollutants unchecked , such as viruses , hydrocarbons , pesticides , herbicides , fertilizers , and heavy metals . Surfrider believes increased outreach and education is needed to warn recreational water users about these risks and improvements to infrastructure are urgently needed in coastal areas . Prevention and Safety The best way to stay healthy during your next trip to the beach is to be aware of any issued advisories or closures . In general , beach health officials will issue an advisory or close a beach when water quality samples exceed the allowable levels of enterococcus or E . coli ( these are “ fecal indicator bacteria ” as they indicate the presence of sewage and potentially other , more harmful pathogens ) . Management decisions to issue an advisory or closure based upon sample results vary widely between states ; however , most monitoring programs will post Other important water quality safety tips include : avoid swimming after heavy rainfall , at sites with known sewer and stormwater discharges , at estuaries downstream of urban development , at areas adjacent to industrial pipe discharges , avoid swallowing the water , and avoid swimming with an open wound ( particularly if you want to avoid the flesh eating bacteria V . Vulnificus and MRSA infections ) . Finding Information About Your Beach ’ s Water Quality Beach water quality monitoring programs are conducted by state , tribal , county and local health officials , typically through the environmental health department . If you ’ re lucky , information about the monitoring of your favorite beach is readily available through a web search or on your county ’ s environmental health website . Unfortunately , regional and local health agencies are often limited by funding , so not all beaches are tested and many are n ’ t tested with high frequency . To help alleviate this gap in coverage , many nonprofits , including Surfrider , Blue Water Task Force webpage . For more information on your state ’ s water monitoring program and voluntary beach testing programs , check out Beachapedia ’ s State of the Beach Water Quality section . To learn more visit Surfrider ' s Clean Water articles and the Coastal blog posts on water quality If you feel you have gotten sick after exposure to polluted ocean water , you can report it at Surfrider ' s Ocean Illness Reporting Tool Extreme Health Effects Transworld Surf published an article Seven Surf Sicknesses . These are actually a mixture of illnesses and the pathogens that cause illnesses . Their list is : MRSA , Hepatitis A , Encephalitis and Meningitis , Gastroentiritis , Vibrio Vulnificus , Leptospirosis , and Unknown and Bizarre illnesses . Some surf - specific accounts of extreme health effects from exposure to polluted runoff and / or sewage spills include : Long time Sunset Cliffs ( San Diego ) surfer Barry Ault contacted a massive staph infection and died within a few days of surfing after a major rain event . In October 2016 CBS News reported that 67 - year - old Mike Funk died from a vibrio vulnificus infection after entering the water at Assawoman Bay in Ocean City , Maryland with an open sore on his leg . Maryland health officials stated they they deal with at least 30 to 50 reports of vibrio each year – some fatal . Chris O ' Connel had a cut on his arm and went in Mission Bay , San Diego after a rain event . His arm became infected with the Streptococcus bacteria and he almost died . Three operations and two and half weeks in the hospital saved his life . A member of the Long Beach Chapter of Surfrider Foundation became infected with the same bacteria after surfing near the San Gabriel River Mouth . Charles Moore of Long Beach was also hospitalized for two weeks . A long - time Surfrider Legal Issues Team member nearly had to have his foot amputated after a blister ( and subsequent surfing ) turned into a nasty MRSA infection ( see Staph Infections ) . Mike Rhodes , another long - time Surfrider Legal Issues Team member , developed a massive ear infection and build - up of fluid in the inner ear after surfing in Del Mar , CA after a rain . A young surfer was reportedly diagnosed with Bell ' s Palsey after surfing in the Cardiff , CA area shortly after a rain event . Surfer Timmy Turner nearly died after an aggressive staph infection attacked his brain . Marine Life is Affected Too ! Sea Otters , Dolphins and other marine life are also affected by pollutants that are discharged into the ocean . In fact , because they spend all their life in the ocean and subsist entirely on food from the ocean , they are more vulnerable to pollutants and infectious agents than humans .

What are skates and how are they different from rays ? April 17 , 2012 by Beach Chair Scientist Leave a Comment Recently , a subscriber wanted to learn more about skates . Great question since many of us think of ‘ roller ’ when we think ‘ skate ’ . Skates are a species that often get overshadowed by rays , especially considering rays tend to be boldly colored while skates tend to be rather dreary and drab in coloration . Rays are also found closer to the coast and skates prefer deep water so we may be more familiar with running into ( or focused on learning to avoid ) rays . However , there are exceptions to those generalizations within the 100 species of skates and 240 species of They ’ re both flat diamond - shaped fish with their mouths on the underside of their body . Both of their body types can be described as dorsoventral . Skates and rays are cartilaginous fish , like sharks and chimaera , which all make up the class Chondrichthyes Con - drick - thees ) . Cartilage is the material that makes up our nose and ears and is more flexible than bone . Skates and rays have modified fins , resembling wings , and often look as though they are flying through the ocean . Here are six general guidelines for differentiating a skates and rays . The pelvic fin of skates is divided into two lobes , while the pelvic fin of rays is a single lobe . The tail on skates lacks a stinging spine . Rays have a distinct , saw - edged spine found midway along their body length . ( When swimming in the habitat of stingrays it is important to remember to do the ‘ stingray shuffle ‘ . ) Many species of skates have bucklers ( thorn - like scales along the mid - line of their back and tail . Rays typically have no bucklers . The tail of skates is rather thick and compact , while rays typically have a slender and long tail . Male skates have enlarged scales near their eyes and wingtips , known as ‘ malar ’ and ‘ alar ’ spines . Male rays do not have these scales . Skates live in cold waters , while rays prefer warm seas and rivers .

http://beam.ezinemark.com/the-different-types-and-uses-of-steel-beams-31936d92336.html | The Different Types And Uses Of Steel Beams in Beam In the use of modern day construction techniques there are a number of different types of steel beams that are commonly in use . Steel is the material most commonly used in modern construction due to its strength , durability and availability . What form the steel beam takes depends largely on the type of project , the needs of the designer and the needs of the engineers . I Beams The most commonly used type of steel beam is the I beam . Named after its shape , a cross section of the beam resembles the letter I . This type of beam is most commonly used in the construction of large commercial project and residential buildings , that said , it is also occasionally used in the construction of smaller buildings including single family homes . These types of beams are also easily modified through cutting , drilling and welding by Steel Fabricators and Steel Suppliers . Channel Beams and Box Girders A channel beam is a beam with a u - shaped cross section that resembles a channel , hence the name . The purpose of the channel shape is that it allows the beam to support a much greater load and a flat beam of the same weight and dimensions , making it very efficient . Box girders are either square or rectangular in shape and have hollow cores . Box girders are often used in the construction of bridges due to their exceptional strength and weight in compression to solid steel of the same dimensions . Flitch Beams This is a beam made from a steel core sandwiched between two sheets of wood . This layering effect makes the beam lighter than regular steel beams of the same size , yet stronger and more durable than wooden beams . Flitch beams are a lower - cost option than the steel alternative . Another advantage of the flitch beam is that it can be nailed to a wooden wall , making a flitch beam much easier to work with in many occasions . In addition to this flitch beams can be made with architectural grade lumber that is meant Author Box Dean Bower has 1 articles online To learn more about Steel Fabricators and Steel Suppliers visit www . elitesteel . co . uk .

http://beaniebabiespriceguide.com/which-ty-beanieis-the-rarest/ | Which Ty Beanie is the Rarest ? by admin | Beanie Blog The Rarest Ty Beanie Babies fall into different groups . # 1 Bear Chef Robuchon Billionaire 2 Bear Royal Blue Peanut Rarest Ty Beanie Babies . Each group has its own rarest Beanies in it . Sometimes the rarest Beanie Babies are not the most expensive : popularity , appeal , and how intense a collector is as to whether they want the original version , or a later version of the Beanie Baby , can play a part in the price . 1 . All 1st Generation swing tag Beanies are extremely hard to find in mint condition . Punchers , Brownie , Cubbie , Fine Mane Mystic , Deep Fuchsia Patti & Blackie are arguably the hardest to find ; with a mint 1st gen . Blackie edging out the pack as the hardest to find and a mint 1st gen . Fine Mane Mystic taking 2nd place . The pre 1st gen UK tags are the shining stars in this group and the owners usually spend big bucks to obtain them . 2 . Out of the 2nd Generation swing tag Beanies the hardest to find would be any Canadian Beanie with an embroidered tush . Ty made an error when exporting to Canada and put one of the 1994 plush tags on Beanies in error . It was quickly corrected . If you see one of these gems , grab it and run fast ! The hardest to find regular release Beanie is 2nd Generation Valentino in mint condition . 2nd Gen Valentino is one of the most underrated Beanies probably because it is found with later generation swing tags . Beanies with 3 . The 3rd Generation swing tag group would be led by Nana without the Bongo sticker . Another Beanie is the underrated Fine Mane Derby . I know of many dealers who have sold dozens of Royal Blue Peanuts but have only had a handful of Fine Mane Derby . The rarest 3rd Generation swing tag would have to be the German tag . This is the one where the right side of the swing tag is written in italics . This is a specialized swing tag that your rarity collectors go for . It was only distributed in Germany . 4 . Out of the Ty employee Beanies the rarest would have to be the Employee Violet Teddy Set and the # 1 Bear . 5 . Ty also produced some very limited Beanies for clubs , private events , etc . Chef Robuchon and the 2011 Hong Kong Toy Fair Beanie are the toughest to find out of this group . Another one that we have not seen in a very long time is the San Ysidro Ranch Bently . Another group lurking in the shadows are the Ty products produced for Leo High School in Chicago . 6 . Ty has done many commemoratives . Two of the hardest to find would be the Toronto Maple Leafs Chocolate & the Madame Alexander Playdate With Spot . Rarest Ty Beanie Babies Top 12 Rarest Ty Beanie Babies – Retail Release 1 . Any Pre 1st Gen UK Tagged Beanie 2 . Any Embroidered Tush Canadian Beanie 3 . Any 2nd Gen German / Korean tagged Beanie 4 .

http://beardtrimandgroom.com/how-to-grow-facial-hair-faster/ | How To Grow Facial Hair Faster © Depositphotos . com / [ Goodluz ] Not everyone who wants to grow a beard has an easy time accomplishing that goal . Genetics , hormones and even the food you eat may be causing a slow or even patchy facial hair growth which can make growing a beard or mustache a difficult and sometimes a seemingly impossible task . I can very well relate to the feeling of frustration wanting to have a beard or mustache and having to wait days or even weeks seeing that patchy look which you finally end up shaving . You really ca n ’ t do anything about your genetic make - up and while most men hesitate to indulge in a testosterone therapy in order to grow that great looking facial hair fast and more easily . The good news is that there are some ways you can boost your facial hair growth and here are some basic tips to help you get a fuller beard . Table of Contents - Click To Jump Ahead 1 Start by Eating Healthier 2 Give Your Beard Time 3 Stop Smoking 4 Get Adequate Amounts of Sleep and Exercise 5 Take Care of Your Skin 6 Keep Your Facial Hair Healthy Start by Eating Healthier This may sound too obvious and often overlooked but I can not over emphasize its importance . A simple fact is that the ability to grow facial hair is directly linked to your health . The healthier and more fit you are , the faster you will be able to grow healthy facial hair . Good health starts by eating healthy foods that increase your circulation , improve your immune system and generally your overall health . So , start on a diet of lean meat and plenty of vitamin enriched fruits and vegetables , especially those foods that contain Vitamins A , B complex , C and E . Just as your body needs vitamins to function properly , your hair also needs certain vitamins to grow and if you are not getting enough of those healthy vitamins , then you might face a difficulty growing your beard as fast and evenly as you would like to . Keep in mind that organic foods are the ones that will benefit your system more and keep it free from harmful substances . Lack of biotin in your body can lead to hair loss . It is still not proven that maintaining the required level of biotin will actually help your hair growth but lack of it can certainly cause loss of hair . Biotin can be found in carrots , caulifower , eggs , liver , fish and many other food items . Along with adding healthy foods to your diet , you should also make sure that you drink enough water . Staying well hydrated helps improve skin health and the healthier your skin gets , the better and faster that hair grows . You should also avoid simple carbohydrates and sugar as this affects the health of your body and in turn the pace of your hair growth . Give Your Beard Time This is probably the biggest issue for most men . We just do n t have enough patience to give our beards a chance to grow . I have a full and dense beard but for the first 3 to 4 weeks it looks extremely patchy . As we all know , some hair follicles are slower in growth and most of us give it about couple of weeks , and if we still see those patches and get tired of the itchy feeling , we rush to grab a razor while cursing our genetics or testosterone levels . The best way to handle such situation is to keep trimming your faster growing hair to avoid that patchy look and give a chance to form an even growth . On average , I would suggest refraining from shaving for at least 4 weeks , and it can easily go up to 8 weeks depending on your growth . Stop Smoking Smoking depresses the immune system and makes it less able to function . When your immune system is weak , it affects every organ of your body , including the skin , and its ability to produce and maintain healthy hair follicles . Smokers also need to get a lot more vitamins than non smokers because smoking suppresses or even destroys the vitamins in your body . Get Adequate Amounts of Sleep and Exercise Sleep is necessary for the body to repair and refresh itself and to maintain its health . Getting the right amount of sleep can actually help to stimulate new hair growth and help the hair that you already have to grow faster . Along with sleep , proper exercise can also boost hair growth by helping to strengthen the immune system and improve circulation throughout your body . Remember that in order for your hair to grow , the hair follicles need to get a fresh blood supply which provides oxygen necessary to help your hair grow . Healthy sleep and exercise will also keep your stress level under control . Stress is well known to be a major cause of hair loss . Take Care of Your Skin In order to grow faster and thicker hair , the skin on which your hair grows needs to be healthier . Make sure that you wash your face at least twice day with a non drying skin cleanser and warm but not hot water . If necessary , moisturize the skin to help it stay hydrated and keep it from drying out , and make sure you exfoliate at least once a week to remove those dead skin cells so that your skin can breathe . Keep Your Facial Hair Healthy © Depositphotos . com / [ Wavebreakmedia ] Beards and mustaches tend to be more coarse and brittle than the hair on your head , so the more brittle your hair is , the higher the tendency it has to break and split . Hair that continually breaks off simply does n ’ t appear to grow fast because as the hair length grows , it keeps breaking off usually at the same point . Using a conditioning beard oil and mustache wax to keep your facial hair healthy and soft will make your facial hair more pliable and less brittle , which means there will be less breakage and the hair will be able to grow longer simply because the ends are n ’ t constantly breaking off . Do keep in mind though that there is no magic formula for stimulating facial hair growth , but by maintaining the health of your skin and facial hair , you should see better results . There are number of products in the market which claim to help the hair growth . I would not like to recommend any of them as I am not a keen supporter of such products . Apart from the fact that they may not work and cost you money , they may have certain chemicals which can actually damage your skin and follicles . My only advice would be to carefully check the ingredients before you buy any hair growth creams . | [

http://beaststwo.org/med_trans/index.shtml | A Simple System for Managing Medical Expenses For years , I just paid the medical provider bills and hoped that things were accurante ( and for the most part , honest ) . Then , back in 1998 , I had surgery and was faced with a pile of bills and insurance statements that I could n ' t make heads or tails of . To try and make some sense of the madness , I created a very simple system to manage this information , to track medical visits and procedures , to have some idea of what bills and insurance statements to expect , and The system consists of a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet ( the download is in Excel 2000 format ) and a file folder to hold paper records . Data about visits / procedures , insurance statements , bills , and payments are entered into the spreadsheet with one or more lines per visit / procedure as required . The previous statement recognizes that some events generate more than one insurance statement and / or bill . For example , surgery may generate bills from the hospital , surgeon , anesthesiologist , radiology , and lab . The system handles each one of The Excel Spreadsheet There is one transaction per spreadsheet row . The blue section contains info about individual visits / procedures . As stated before , creation of a new transaction record is triggered by a medical visit or procedure , or receipt of an insurance statement or provider bill . The meanings of columns in the blue section are as follows : The " Ref # " column contains the transaction number that will be used to match records in the spreadsheet to paper records in the file folder . The blank spreadsheet contains transaction numbers for 2000 transactions . More can be added by making copies of the last row , then using the Excel Edit | Fill menu comand to automatically number the ref # column downward . Between 1998 and 2004 , we used only 130 rows , but your mileage may vary . The " Date " column contains the date of the visit or procedure . The for those unexpected items that are separate from specific visits , like some labwork , the date may come from an insurance statement or a bill , depending on which arrives first . The " Who ? " column refers to the name of the person who received the service , so that same spreadsheet can track medical expenses for several people . The " Provider " column contains the name of the provider . This does n ' t need to be exact , but only enough information to be able to match up with insurance statements and bills . The " Description of Services " column is a short description of services provided , again to help match up with insurance statements and bills . The " We Paid on Date of Visit " column contains the the total amount of money paid directly to the provider " out of pocket " when services were provided . This is used to calculate how much you owe the provider , so do n ' t include expenses not directly billed and paid to the provider on the day of service . This means that if your doctor gave you a presciption , do n ' t include money paid to your pharmacy here . The " Paid by Insurance " column contains the total amount of money that the insurance statement says they paid to the provider . This column is n ' t used for calculations and is for reference only . Over time , it will give an idea of how much you are paying versus the insurance company . This will give an idea of how much value your insurance premiums are buying . The " Insurance Sez We Owe " column ( forgive the slang ) contains the total abount of money that the insurance statement says you owe the provider . This is used to compute the total amount the provider should bill . Note that because insurance company agreements with providers sometimes reduce the amount that the providr can charge , this amount may be less than the provider bills . It ' s between you , your insurer , and your provider to work this out , but you can generally trust that the provider will honor any reductions by The " Paper Balance " column is a calculated column that subtracts the amount from the " We Paid on Date of Visit " column from the amount in the " Insurance Sez We Owe " column . Do not enter any data in this column ! This is the amount that you should really owe the provider . Note that when you enter a transaction after a visit or procedure where you paid money at the time of service , but before the insurance statement is entered , this column will hold a negative number , indicating that you ' ve already paid some money . The " Amount Provider Billed " column contains the total amount the provider says you owe . Since providers sometimes bill several visits together , you can either split these between transactions or leave them lumped together , as long as it makes sense to you ( this is what the " Remarks " column is for ) . The " Date We Paid " column contains the date you paid the bill . The " Amount We Paid " column contains the amount of money you paid the provider . The " Check Number " column is an optional column to allow you to match a transaction to a cancelled check in case there is a payment dispute . The " Remarks " column is for any information you wish to record about the transaction . It will wrap when you type more text than the width of the column , and can contain up to 255 characters . The row height should automatically expand and contract to fit the amount of text entered . The File Folder How the System Works Unless you ' re having surgery or procedures , the normal sequence ( such as a doctor visit ) will be visit , then insurance statement , followed by a bill , followed by a payment . Here ' s how such a visit would be entered : You visit the doctor , make a copayment , and receive a receipt an office statement ( The paper showing what was done and the diagnosis . The outprocessing desk at you doctor ' s office uses it to record what was done and to determine your copayment and next appointment ) . When you get home , you open the spreadsheet and enter the blue section of a new row , including your copayment . Here ' s where the file folder comes in : record the number in the " Ref # " column on the office statement and place it in the file , behind any existing documents , so that papers are stored in " Ref # " order . I place the " Ref # " in the upper right hand corner and store the documents in the folder such that I can thumb through the documents and A week or two goes by and you get an insurance statement . Open the spreadsheet and fill out the gray section . If a benefit check was received , state that in the " Remarks " and enter the check in the " Amount Provider Billed " column as a negative number to indicate a receipt vice a payment . Write the " Ref # " on the insurance statement . Open the file folder , pull out any documents for that " Ref # " , staple them together ( I usually put the insurance statement at the A few weeks go by and the bill comes in . Here where the payoff for the organization comes in : Open the spreadsheet and fill out the " Amount Provider Billed " column . If you ' ve had several visits recently , you ' ll have to determine how or how not to record the info in other existing columns . As long as it makes sense to you it ' s OK . If you put them all under one transaction , you can use the " Remarks " column in the others to reflect that the bill was paid under " Ref # " such and such . Compare the " Paper Balance " column against the amount the provider billed ( you ' ll have to look at this column in more than one row if the provider billed for multiple visits on one bill ) and determine how mch you owe or are owed . Then determine what to pay the provider . Make your payment and record the info in the " Date We Paid " , " Amount We Paid " , and " Check Number " columns , as well as " Remarks " column if desired . Remove existing documents from the file folder . Take the part of the bill you keep , staple it to the back of the documents , and return them to the folder , maintaing the " Ref # " order of documents . That ' s all there is to it ! If a dispute arises later with a provider or insurance company , you can locate the transaction in the spreadsheet and use the " Ref # " to find the documents to deal with the problem . Simple and easy ! Using the logic above , you should be able to determine what happened in the transactions in the sample spreadsheet shown above . Computer System Requirements This web page is provided in the download as an Adobe Acrobat file , If you do ' nt have adobe reader , you can download it from Adobe using this link . A Few Ending Notes Once in a while , something wierd happens and I edit the spreadsheet to state something that would n ' t be obvious . For example , one provider did n ' t bill me or the insurance company for 4 months . The resulting insurance statement indicated that I did n ' t owe the provider anything because they breached their agreement to submit to the insurance company within 30 days . I used the Excel " cell merge " function to merge all cells in the light green section and typed in what was on the insurance statement Using this system , I ' ve also found providers that billed me without deducting my copayment . I was too chicken to haggle about the first one , but never again ! I hope you find the system as useful as I have . Since I created the system in 1998 , I ' ve yet to have medical transactions that I could n ' t figure out . Download 72511 visits since | [

Naked Recorded 31 January 1969 Length 3 : 50 ( single version ) 4 : 03 ( album version ) Label Apple Producer Phil Spector Let It Be guide Previous Dig It Next Maggie Mae Let It Be . . . Naked guide Previous Across the Universe is a song by The Beatles , released in March 6th , 1970 as a single , and as the title track of their album . Although credited to Lennon / McCartney it is generally accepted to be a Paul McCartney composition . The single reached # 1 in the U.S. , Australia , Italy , Norway and Switzerland and # 2 in the UK . It was the final single released by the Beatles while the band was still active . The song was played in the ending of the song , " The Complete Beatles " This song is in the Paul McCartney Project at this page . Contents show Inspiration Edit See also : Jim and Mary McCartney McCartney said he had the idea of " Let It Be " , after a dream he had about his mother during the tense period surrounding the Get Back / Let It Be sessions . McCartney explained that his mother — who died of cancer when McCartney was fourteen — was the inspiration for the " Mother Mary " lyric . McCartney later said , " It was great to visit with her again . I felt very blessed to have that dream . So that got me writing ' Let It Be ' . " He also said — Recording and Version History The first recording of Let It Be took place at Twickenham Film Studios on 3 January 1969 , where The Beatles had the previous day begun what would become the Let It Be film . A single take was recorded , with just Paul McCartney on piano and vocals . The first group attempt was made on 8 January . Work continued on the song throughout the month , initially at Twickenham and from 23 January at Apple Studios . The master take was recorded on 31 January 1969 , as part of the ' Apple studio performance ' for Lennon played bass , Billy Preston played organ and George Harrison and Ringo Starr assumed their conventional roles . This was one of two performances of the song that day . The first version , designated take 27 - A , would serve as the basis for all officially released versions of the song . The other version , take 27 - B , was performed as part of the ' live studio performance ' , along with Two of Us and The Long and Winding Road . This performance , in which Lennon and Harrison harmonised with McCartney ' s lead vocal and Harrison contributed a subdued guitar solo , can be seen . On 30 April 1969 , Harrison overdubbed a new guitar solo on the best take from 31 January that year . Harrison reportedly overdubbed another solo on 4 January 1970 . The first overdub solo was used for the original single release , and the second overdub solo was used for the original album release . Some fans mistakenly believe that there were two versions of the basic track — based mostly on the different guitar solos , but also on some other differences in overdubs and mixes . Single version The single used the same cover photograph as the Let It Be album , and was titled " an intimate bioscopic experience with THE BEATLES " . It was originally released as a single on March 6 , 1970 , backed by " You Know My Name ( Look up the Number ) " , with a production credit for George Martin . This version includes orchestration and backing vocals overdubbed on January 4 , 1970 — under the supervision of McCartney — with backing vocals that included the only known contribution by Linda McCartney to a Beatles song . It was during this same session that Harrison recorded the second overdubbed guitar solo . The intention at one point was to have the two overdub solos playing together . This idea was dropped for the final mix of the single , and only the April 30 solo was used , although in practice the January 4 overdub can he heard faintly during the final verse . Martin mixed the orchestration very low in this version . Someone can also be heard whispering something indistinct at around 1 : 08 . The single mix was 1967 - 1970 compilation album . Original pressings erroneously show the running time of 4 : 01 ( as per the Let It Be album ) , and not the single version ' s running time of 3 : 52 . Album version On March 26 , 1970 , Phil Spector remixed the song for the Let It Be album . This version features the " more stinging " January 4 , 1970 guitar solo , no backing vocals ( except during the first chorus ) , an echo effect on Ringo ' s cymbals , and more prominent orchestration . The other guitar solo can be heard faintly through the right speaker , as the original was planned . There are three lines in the last chorus of the song as the " There will be an answer " line is sung twice instead of once as on the single . On the album , before the song Lennon is heard saying in a falsetto voice , mimicking Gracie Fields : " That was ' Can You Dig It ' by Georgie Wood , and now we ' d like to do ' Hark The Angels Come ' , " and then giggles . Allen Klein brought in Spector to mix the album without telling McCartney or asking for his agreement , because McCartney had not signed Klein ' s management contract . McCartney later complained that he was not happy with Spector ' s production of the recording . At about nine seconds into the song , you " Anthology " Version An early version of the song also appears on Anthology 3 which was released on October 28 1996 . This version , Take 1 , was recorded on January 25 1969 . It is a much more simplified version , as McCartney had still not written the final verse yet ( " And when the night is cloudy . . .I wake up to the sound of music . . . " ) . Instead , the first verse is simply repeated . The song also features studio talk between Lennon and McCartney prior to another take : “ John : Are we supposed to giggle in the solo ? Paul : Yeah . John : OK . Paul : This ' ll — this is gonna knock you out , Also , following the end of the recording , John can be heard saying , " Well I think that was rather grand . I ' d take one home with me . Ok lets track it . Ugh you bounder you cheat ! " The running time of the " Anthology " version is 4 : 05 . " Let It Be . . . Naked " version Another version of the song appeared on the album in 2003 . Starr disliked Spector ' s version where his drumming was augmented by Spector ' s " tape - delay - effect " to his hi - hats during the song ' s second verse and added shakers , so Let It Be … Naked features his original " stripped - down - approach " drumming . Also deleted were the tom - tom overdub rolls , heard after the guitar solo during the third verse . The guitar solo used in this version — similar to the single version — was taken from the subsequent take as seen in Film Version Still another version appears in the Let It Be film . In this version , McCartney makes several improvisations on piano , placing fill - in notes and sometimes substituting long notes for several short notes . As with the album version , McCartney repeats the " there will be in an answer " line in the chorus . Unlike the album version , however , he does this during the second chorus , not the final chorus . During the final verse and final chorus , McCartney also substitutes the lines " speaking words of wisdom " and " there will be an answer , " replacing them with Unused Mixes Glyn Johns mixed the song on May 28 1969 as he finished the mixing for the Get Back album . This version was never released . He used the same mix in a January 5 1970 , which was an attempt to compile an acceptable version of the LP . Again , this version of the LP was never officially released . Piano Theme Main Piano Theme The main piano theme from Let it be , in C Major , introduces the song , in a sober yet powerful series of cadences , consisting of bouncing four - beat - bar triads riding over left hand piano single note tempered keystrokes , which drive the whole harmony , from a nascent confidence feeling ( first measure ) , to subsequent melancholic anxious sentiment ( measures second and third ) and back to a definite grateful , self assured stance ( last measure ) . The effect of pleading gloomy mood is achieved by McCartney blending in major Critical Assessments Critical reception for " Let It Be " has been mostly positive . In 2004 , it was ranked number 20 on Rolling Stone magazine ' s list of the 500 greatest songs of all time . Allmusic said it was one of " ' most popular and finest ballads " . Ian MacDonald had a dissenting opinion , writing that the song " achieved a popularity well out of proportion to its artistic weight " and that it was " ' Hey Jude ' , without the musical and emotional release . " John Lennon also commented on " Let It Be " . Prior to a take during the January 31 1969 recording session , he asked , " Are we supposed to giggle in the solo ? " ( This a similar quote to Lewisohn ' s " The Complete Beatles Recording Sessions " ( p170 ) but Lennon says " during the solo " not " in the solo " as quoted here ) . In Lennon ' s Playboy interview in 1980 , he disavowed any involvement with composing the song . He said , “ That ' s Paul . What can you say ? Nothing to do with the Beatles . It could ' ve been Wings . I do n ' t know what he ' s thinking when he writes [ sic ] ' Let It Be . ' I think it was inspired by ' Bridge over Troubled Waters . ' That ' s my feeling , although I have nothing to go on . I know he wanted to write a ' Bridge over Troubled Waters . ' ” As MacDonald explained , is wrong about " Bridge over Troubled Water " being McCartney ' s inspiration : " Let It Be " was recorded approximately a year before " Bridge over Troubled Water " was released . According to Allmusic , Simon and Garfunkel performed the song live in 1969 prior to releasing it , but it is unlikely that McCartney could have heard it before the recording session on January 31 1969 . Ironically , " Let It Be " knocked " Bridge over Troubled Water " out of the top spot as Billboard Hot 100 number - one single , Memorial service for Linda Along with a 700 - strong congregation , Paul McCartney , George Harrison , and Ringo Starr sang " Let It Be " during a memorial service for Linda McCartney at St Martin - in - the - Fields church in Trafalgar Square , in 1998 .

http://beatlesnumber9.com/ringo.html | Richard Starkey , MBE ( born July 7 , 1940 ) is best known by his stage name , Ringo Starr , as the drummer for The Beatles from August 16th 1962 ( when he replaced Pete Best ) until their breakup in 1970 . Ringo is known for his reliable , steady drumming and innovative fills . His easygoing personality made him an easy fit with the other Beatles . Prior to joining the Beatles , he was the drummer for the Liverpool band Rory Storm and the Hurricanes , from 1959 to 1962 . His musical talents were primarily confined to drumming , rather than singing or songwriting . Of all the Beatles , he did the least songwriting . The Beatles explained that when he would present a song as a contender for an album cut , the song would ( to them ) be a clear knockoff of another popular song , but Ringo would not recognize the similarities until they pointed it out . Ringo did Starr did however contribute a number of lyric ideas and song titles to Lennon and McCartney , although usually unintentionally . One of the most famous examples of this was the title for the band ' s first motion picture , A Hard Day ' s Night . Starr had emerged from the studio after a long day of work and commented to the others that it had been a " hard day ' s . . . " - before he finished his sentence , Starr noticed that it was now night time and added " night " . Although some have tried to downplay his contributions to the band , Starr ' s unique drumming style played a major role in the overall sound of The Beatles . To this day , many drummers list Starr as a major influence including Max Weinberg of The E Street Band , Liberty DeVitto of Billy Joel ' s band , Phil Collins , Andy Sturmer of Jellyfish , and others . According to Collins , Ringo is " vastly underrated . The drum fills on " A Day In The Life " are very complex things . You could take In 1972 , after the breakup of the Beatles , Starr ' s solo recording of " Photograph " topped the Billboard charts . He also toured with Ringo Starr ' s All - Star Band . He acted in several films such as Candy ( 1968 ) , The Magic Christian ( 1969 ) ( alongside Peter Sellers ) , Son of Dracula ( 1974 ) , and Caveman ( 1980 ) . He also worked on the children ' s television series Shining Time Station , it ' s Christmas special Shining Time Station : ' Tis A Gift and Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends . He appeared as himself on the cartoon The Simpsons . Television Shining Time Station ( 1989 - 1991 ) Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends ( 1984 - 86 ) Filmography The Cooler ( 2003 ) Goat Boy ( 1996 ) The Beatles Anthology ( 1995 ) The Return of Bruno ( 1988 ) Water ( 1985 ) Give My Regards to Broad Street ( 1984 ) Princess Daisy ( 1983 ) The Compleat Beatles ( 1982 ) Caveman ( 1981 ) Ringo ( 1978 ) Sextette ( 1978 ) Lisztomania ( 1975 ) Son of Dracula ( 1974 ) That ' ll Be The Day ( 1973 ) 200 Motels ( 1971 ) Let It Be ( 1970 ) The Magic Christian ( 1969 ) Candy ( 1968 ) Magical Mystery Tour ( 1967 ) Help ! ( 1965 ) A Hard Day ' s Night ( 1964 ) Richard Starkey was born on 7th July , 1940 at 9 Madryn Street deep in the Dingle , Liverpool . From the very beginning he was followed by amazingly strong misfortune . He was born about a month too late , even then they had to use special instruments to get him out . In school his learning was disturbed by following diseases . In the age of six , only after a year of elementary school he was speeded to hospital with busted appendix . His life was saved with surgery operation at the last moment , but he That was the reason he could n ' t in the age of eight even read or write . Neighbor girl Mary Maguire did the best she can to help him to catch the others and often sat with him and red newspapers to him . When Ritchie was 11 his mother started to date with Harry Graves . Graves was born in London but worked as a painter in a one firm from Liverpool . Ritchie liked Harry and so encouraged the union . So Harry and Elsie got married in 1953 , when Ritchie was nearly 13 - year - old . He had started Dingle Vale s school , but was still suffering for those missing classes . Same year he caught a cold and got a bronchitis . He was taken to Heswall ' s huge children ' s sanatorium near Wirrall and there he stayed next two years . When he got home , he was 15 and entitled to end the school . When he went to get his report card , anybody in the Dingle Wale school did n ' t remember him . He could read and write somehow and caused the months he had spent in hospitals he was very thin and palefaced . Anyway his character was still cheerful . He got - thanks to his step father Harry Graves - a job from the local Hunt ' s machine workshop as welder ' s apprentice . Also a boy called Eddie Miles worked as trainee at Hunt and also lived near Starkeys on Admiral Grove . At the time the skiffle - craze was starting 1956 , Eddie and Ritchie started a band to entertain other apprentices on lunch . Ritchie adopted the role of drummer easily . Harry Graves bought him his first full drum set with 10 pounds . The Eddie Clayton Skiffle Group performed at the same congregation ' s happenings as did John Lennon ' s original Quarry Men . Now Ritchie had a brand - new drum set , for what he had loaned 50 pounds from his grandfather . ' Round the year 1959 the set was his passport into Liverpool ' s most successful amateur ground The Ravin ' Texas later known as The Hurricanes with Rory Storm as vocalist . The name ' Ringo ' is from that time caused the many rings he had . ' Starkey ' was from the very Ringo met The Beatles first time in Hamburg 1961 . The Beatles liked him and his weird but harmless humor and obviously he was a lot better drummer then Pete Best that time . So the plan to get Pete out of the band derives from year 1961 , when Ringo joined temporarly The Beatles when they played as Wally ' s back - up group in the recording house of Hamburg railway station . After Hamburg Ringo had gave up his welder trainee job and was many years unemployed sitting his idle days in Cavern , Jacaranda or in After a short hiring in Tony Sheridan ' s back - up he joined again into Rory Storm and The Hurricanes and left with them to south Skegness on their every - year gig at Butlin ' s vacation camp . That while the Beatles decided to take Ringo as their drummer . By the phone John told him that Beatle - pay was 25 pounds a week . For that Ringo had to comb his hair ahead and cut his beard . His whiskers he was allowed to keep . Ringo Starr Ringo Starr , born Richard Starkey , was the drummer in the Beatles from 1962 to 1970 and thus one of the most famous musicians of the ' 60s . Though the least prominent member of the quartet , he distinguished himself as an occasional singer of good - natured material and as an actor . Upon the group ' s split , Starr went solo with two novelty projects : the first , an album called Sentimental Journey , found him covering pre - rock standards , and the second , Beacoups of Blues , was a country music Starr then scored Top Ten hits with two non - album singles , " It Do n ' t Come Easy " in 1971 and " Back off Boogaloo " in 1972 . In 1973 he paired with producer Richard Perry and , with assistance from the three other ex - Beatles , made Ringo , which featured two number one hits , " Photograph " and " You ' re Sixteen . " " Oh My My , " a Top Ten hit , was also included . Almost as successful was the 1974 follow - up , Goodnight Starr continued to release albums through 1981 , though with diminishing success . His 1983 album Old Wave did not find a U.S. distributor . Starr was also suffering from the excesses of his lifestyle , but by the late ' 80s he had cleaned up , and in 1989 he toured with his " All - Starr Band . " In 1992 , he signed to Private Music and released a new studio album , Time Takes Time . Vertical Man , his first album for Mercury , followed in 1998 , as did a disc culled from his BEATING THE MYTH Ringo Starr replaced the famously ousted Pete Best as the Beatles ' drummer in August 1962 , on the eve of the band ' s dazzling emergence from Liverpool . A myth has long persisted that because Ringo was the last to join the group , he was just lucky , incidental to the Beatles ' sound and success . Today , the man who put the beat in Beatles is fast approaching 65 . He has , according to published reports , undergone three shoulder surgeries this year just to be able to continue playing the drums in that familiar , cross - handed , deceptively simple way of his . Recently Capitol released the Beatles ' first four American albums on compact disc , in mono and stereo . September saw the publication of Ringo ' s own valentine to his old mates - " Postcards From the Boys " ( Chronicle Books ) , a coffee - table book reproducing the fronts and backs of alternately sweet , silly and sad dispatches he received from his fellow Beatles spanning 1965 to the mid - ' 90s . Ringo ' s book of postcards , paradoxically enough , reinforces the stubborn misconception that his three great claims to fame are named John , Paul and George . The postcards from his friends might feed the myth - but those early albums he recorded with them do n ' t . There ' s one thing about the Beatles that still needs to be said . It can fit on a postcard : Ringo Starr was a musical genius . His drumming revolutionized pop music and was indispensable to the Beatles ' artistic alchemy and commercial dominance . It is a tribute to this legendary performer ' s self - effacing nature - his unassuming personality and uncanny knack for knowing how much , or how little , was needed to build and release tension in a song - that the world has showered every last superlative on the Beatles ' output without ever fully recognizing the contribution of the fourth man , the noncomposer , the novelty vocalist - the comic relief . The myth holds that the Fab Four could have made it with any passable yahoo planted behind them , simply keeping the beat to those indestructible Lennon - McCartney gems . Did n ' t they replace Ringo on " Love Me Do " ? Did n ' t some other guy ( Name : Jimmy Nicol ) put on the suit and play in Ringo ' s place for six tour dates in spring 1964 ? And did n ' t the girls scream just as loud ? And did n ' t Paul McCartney play drums on " Ballad of John and Yoko " ? All true - and all irrelevant . Ringo Starr revolutionized pop drumming not once , but twice . Turn on oldies radio sometime , and give a close listen to the drumming on any top - 40 hit from the PBE ( pre - Beatles era ) . There is no comparison . It ' s a quantum leap from even the best of the lot to the muscularity , crisp , cracking sharpness , boxy backbeat bigness , the exciting , lunging aliveness that Ringo brought to - you name it - any up - tempo tune off those first four American albums . There are only a handful of PBE hit songs that even approach - forget equal - the innovations Ringo wrought from 1963 to 1965 . The drumming on the great ' 50s hits - seminal records by Chuck Berry , Little Richard , Elvis Presley and the rest - was rooted in the jazz - swing tradition , from which so many of the era ' s session drummers hailed . In the early ' 60s , there were a few hints of what was to come : the Angels ' " My Boyfriend ' s Back , " with its interplay of snare drum and handclaps ; Nino Tempo and April Stevens ' " Deep Purple , " with its steady , easy - rocking rhythm ; and Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons ' " Walk Like A Man , " with its complex , constantly changing rhythms . But these fade in comparison to the furious machine - gun precision on display in " Please Please Me , " the rolling thunder and raining - cymbal attack on " She Loves You , " the controlled chaos of " It Wo n ' t Be Long " the Latin - hard - rock fusion driving " I Feel Fine . " Simply put : No rock drummer had ever played quite the way Ringo did , with the combined strength of his snapping snare and bass - drum backbeat . He also offered unusual , convention - shattering fare such as the beats on " Ticket To Ride " and " In My Life . " By the time the wave caught up with Ringo - in the form of more technically proficient speed demons such as The Who ' s Keith Moon and percussive maestros including Led Zeppelin ' s John Bonham - the happy - go - lucky Beatle was already onto a whole new thing , also without equal in the charting pop music of the day . This was his elegant and highly intuitive exploitation of the tom - toms , not only for " fills " - the little spaces between chord changes where drummers typically show off - but as It started on " She Said , She Said , " with its slurred , manic fills ; grew on " Hello , Goodbye , " where the fills began expanding into whole verses ( check out what Ringo ' s playing while Paul sings " Why why why why why why do you SAY goodbye " ) ; and reached its apex on songs such as " Come Together " and " Sun King , " where Ringo virtually surfed during verses . Modern Drummer magazine has recorded that Ringo is responsible for more people taking up the drums than any other musician in history , a fact that speaks as much to Ringo ' s art - his unique , damnably deceitful , head - swaying illusion of making it look easy - as to his proximity to John and Paul . How many other artists - public figures of any stripe - can take a glance behind them and see so much created in their image ? ~ Fox Let ' s look back at some of Ringo ' s non - musical pursuits , from film actor to filmmaker , restaurateur to artiste : 1972 : After dabbling in front of the camera a few times - - in the Beatles films , in " The Magic Christian " with Peter Sellers , in Frank Zappa ' s " 200 Motels " - - Ringo stepped behind it to direct " Born to Boogie , " a marathon concert film about pioneering glam rock band T . Rex . The film was painstakingly restored for a DVD release earlier this month , including a nifty studio scene featuring Ringo , T . Rex ' s Marc Bolan and Elton John jamming on " Tutti 1974 : John Lennon ' s fabled " lost weekend " was in full swing , and lots of celebs went along for the wild ride , including Ringo and buddy Harry Nilsson . Ringo joined Nilsson for the latter ' s " Pussy Cats " record , then the two made a wacky documentary about their legendary carousing titled " Harry and Ringo ' s Night Out . " It was never released . 1975 : Ringo appeared as the pope in Ken Russell ' s film " Lisztomania , " in which the character of the great classical pianist Liszt ( played by Roger Daltrey ) actually says , " Piss off , Brahms ! " 1977 : In his first dabbling in children ' s entertainment ( if you do n ' t count " Yellow Submarine " and " Octopus ' s Garden " ) , Ringo provided the voice for Scouse the Mouse for an animated special and an album of the same name . 1978 : Ringo played a European movie director in Mae West ' s final film , " Sextette " ( with a wild cast including everyone from Timothy Dalton and Tony Curtis to Alice Cooper and Regis Philbin ) . He also appeared in Martin Scorsese ' s concert documentary about the Band , " The Last Waltz . " 1981 : Ringo starred in the primitive comedy " Caveman , " on the set of which he met his future wife , Barbara Bach . Meanwhile , Ringo became part owner of a cable TV company in Liverpool . 1983 : Ringo hosted a 26 - part weekly radio show called " Ringo ' s Yellow Submarine , " a series about Beatles music . 1984 : All aboard ! Ringo narrated the animated series " Thomas the Tank Engine " for Britain ' s ITV . The series lasted until 1991 . Later in the year , Ringo hosted " Saturday Night Live , " the only Beatle to do so . One of the skits featured fans snapping up Beatles memorabilia at an auction - - $ 45,000 for a Lennon guitar pick , $ 110,000 for a Paul McCartney toothbrush , $ 800 for Ringo himself . 1985 : A star - studded TV adaptation of " Alice in Wonderland " found Ringo playing the Mock Turtle . 1987 : Ringo appeared at the opening of the Brasserie , a restaurant in Atlanta in which he had co - ownership , and joined an impromptu jam session with Isaac Hayes , Jermaine Jackson and Jerry Lee Lewis . Also that year , at the height of his alcohol dependency ( later successfully treated ) , he appeared in a series of ads for Sun Country Classic Wine Coolers . 1989 : Ringo played the part of the tiny Mr . Conductor in the children ' s TV series " Shining Time Station , " for which he was nominated for an Emmy . 1995 : Swipe it ! Ringo created a painting for the Private Issue credit card , the company that sponsored his summer tour . The painting itself brought $ 33,000 when it was auctioned to benefit the Make - A - Wish Foundation . That year , Ringo also designed a line of drumsticks for the ProMark signature series . 2005 : On Sunday , Ringo , 64 ( still needed , still fed ) , opened an exhibition of his computer art at Pop International Galleries in Manhattan . The show features 14 different images , all signed . Starr said he started doing computer art to keep him occupied while he was on the road touring .

http://beatsofhealth.com/symptoms-of-ovarian-cysts-ovaries/ | In Ovarian Cysts 8 Types of Changes That Ovarian Cysts Can Cause – Signs and Symptoms Ovarian cysts do more than cause pain and discomfort . They can also cause changes in your body . Some of the changes that they cause are easily visible . Some are not . Some can occur at the same time while others occur on their own . It ’ s true that there are women with cysts in their ovaries who never experience any of these changes . However , it pays to know about these ovarian cyst symptoms as it can come in handy in helping in the early detection of ovarian cysts . This will eventually help to reduce the risks of ovarian cyst complications . Causes of ovarian cyst induced changes Your browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats available . Click here to visit our frequently asked questions about HTML5 video . Most of the changes that ovarian cysts cause have to do with the increasing size of a cyst in a woman ’ s body , where the cyst grows so large that it pushes against tissues and adjacent organs to such an extent that the effect of this pushing and shoving becomes visible . However , some of the changes caused by ovarian cysts have to do with their effect on the hormonal balance in a woman ’ s body . For example , Hopkins Medicine blames the unusual hair growth symptom of ovarian cysts on the increased production of masculinizing hormones - triggered by ovarian cysts . 1 . Increase in urination frequency This is a symptom of ovarian cysts that occurs when a large cyst presses against the bladder . It has two effects : it reduces the holding capacity of the bladder and also makes it impossible for one to completely empty her bladder . By reducing the bladder ’ s capacity , ovarian cysts guarantee that your bladder will fill up quickly . And by inhibiting the bladder - emptying process , it further accelerates the bladder - filling process since even after going to the loo , there will always be less space left in your bladder . All this adds up to a continuous need to empty your bladder at smaller and smaller intervals . The growth of the cyst only makes things worse . 2 . Excessive bleeding during menstruation Women with ovarian cysts sometimes experience heavier - than - normal bleeding during their periods . And sometimes , it ’ s not just heavier . The bleeding sometimes goes on for a longer period than what one is used to . Since the menstrual cycle is a process that is largely controlled by hormones , and since hormones produced by the ovaries play a significant process in controlling this process , these changes can be blamed on the hormonal - imbalance effect that ovarian cysts have on the female body 3 . Irregular bleeding Some women experience changes in the timing department of their menstrual cycles . Some experience their periods earlier while for others , their periods take longer than necessary . There are also times when ovarian cysts can cause unexpected light vaginal spotting . This can be very frustrating because you may never know when the bleeding will start . 4 . Unexplained weight gain This is a symptom of ovarian cysts that may be blamed on the hormonal imbalance that comes with the onset of ovarian cysts . However , there are cases where the increase in weight is caused by the sheer weight of the cystic mass growing in the ovaries . Cases of extremely large cysts are a good example . 5 . Difficulty getting pregnant Normally , ovarian cysts do n ’ t interfere with a woman ’ s ability to get pregnant . The growth of the cyst and the onset of ovarian cyst complications can however make conception difficult . This is so especially in cases where ovarian torsion and ovarian cyst rupture occur . Ovarian torsion Ovarian torsion is a condition that is characterized by the twisting of ovarian cysts . This twisting can restrict blood supply to the ovaries , something that may lead to death of ovarian tissues . If this condition leads to the destruction of an ovary , a woman will only have one ovary to rely on . This can reduce the chances of conception . Ovarian cyst rupture Ovarian cyst rupture on the other hand has several effects . In the case of an endometrioid cyst , a cyst burst will release the contents of the cyst . This will then cause endometrial tissues to start developing on different parts of the female reproductive system . It can lead to scarring of the uterus , blockage of the fallopian tube and many other complications that can make fertilization difficult . A cyst burst can also lead to damage of the ovaries . And even if it does n ’ t do so directly , it can expose the ovaries to the risks that come with surgery , something that can lead to conception complications . 6 . Painful periods WebMD explains why some women experience painful periods . According to an article reviewed by Kecia Gaither , MD , MPH , the pain usually occurs as a result of uterine contractions . These contractions cause the uterine muscles to press against blood vessels , cutting off blood supply to some muscles . This is what causes the pain . Now , not all women experience painful periods . But given that on ovarian cyst is an unwanted mass that takes up space in the reproductive system , it is easy to see why the effects of uterine contractions can cause more pain . With cysts taking up space , even the slightest contractions of the uterine walls can cut off blood supply to the uterine muscles . A woman who would n ’ t have experienced the pain therefore experiences it because of the “ congestion ” caused by ovarian cysts . 7 . Infertility It is possible for ovarian cysts to cause permanent infertility in women . It maybe as a result of the effect of a necessary – to remove the cyst and prevent further complications – surgical procedure . It can also be as a direct consequence of ovarian cyst complications . The rupture of an endometrioid ovarian cyst can lead to the total blockage of the fallopian tubes . It can also lead to infections that may end up causing irreparable damage to the female reproductive system . And in cases where cysts develop on both ovaries , ovarian torsion can cause the destruction of both ovaries , leading to permanent infertility . These are extremely rare ovarian cyst complications . But that is not to say that they can not develop . 8 . Increased hair growth The hair growth usually occurs in the face , although other parts of the body are n ’ t immune to this ovarian cyst symptom . As mentioned above , Hopkins Medicine attributes this change to an increase in the production of masculinizing hormones – an effect of the presence of cysts in the ovaries .

http://beautiful-wednesday.blogspot.com/2011/01/philip-pullman-clockwork.html | You Ca n ' t Annotate on a Library Book Thursday , January 27 , 2011 Philip Pullman - Clockwork Approximate Read Time : Less than an hour Series : No Illustrations : Yes ! Beautiful , cloudy , misty illustrations by Leonid Gore that have poignant moments of clarity . Point of View : Third person narrator who seems to be directly telling the story to the reader based on the forward note , and several sentences scattered throughout the story . Summary : The note before the story sets the mood and directives for the rest of the story . It basically describes clockwork with all of its gears and cogs and differentiates it from modern clockwork which seems more mysterious and less understandable . It also describes how even though gears and cogs are solid understandable pieces they are still enigmatic , especially when they are put together and the pieces make the clock work until the time is all wound down . We are introduced to Karl , the apprentice clockmaker ; his master ; Fritz , the writer ; and Gretl , the daughter of the innkeeper . Karl is in a dark mood because it is the night before he is expected to reveal his grand project , his addition to the great clock . Fritz begins to tell a story called ' Clockwork ' ( The title of the book ! ) , but he is also nervous because he has n ' t actually finished the ending of the story . Fritz ' s story is about an incident at a palace that was hushed up . A sledge of horses races into the palace courtyard driven by Prince Otto whose arm keeps whipping them forward even though Prince Otto is discernibly dead . His son , Prince Florian is found in the back of the sledge unharmed . The palace physician who goes to inspect the elder prince discovers that his heart has been taken out and replaced with clockwork , which kept the prince ' s arm moving even though he was dead . There are many unknown secrets The man matches Fritz ' s description of Dr . Kalmenius exactly . The townspeople leave the inn in fear and the only one left is Karl . Karl and Dr . Kalmenius talk and Karl reveals that he has made nothing for the big celebration the next day . Dr . Kalmenius offers to help and gives him a metal clock figure , Sir Ironsoul , an armored knight holding a sword . Karl speaks a certain word , ' devil ' and the knight begins to try to kill him . The only thing that stops him is Gretl comes into the main room of the inn cold , and sleepless because of Fritz ' s unfinished story . She unknowingly says the word ' devil ' and Sir Ironsoul moves in for the kill . Part two tells what really happened to Prince Otto . When he married , an heir was expected , but for a long time , no child was conceived . When the Princess finally gave birth , the baby died immediately . Prince Otto takes the child with him to Dr . Kalmenius and the Dr . creates a masterpiece of clockwork that looks just like the dead baby . The baby is named Prince Florian and all goes well until the clockwork boy is five years old and starts to run down . Prince Otto takes the young prince Which is of course , ' The Flowers of Lapland ' . Sir Ironsoul is stopped and Gretl is saved . Gretl realizes that the clockwork boy is Prince Florian and that Fritz needs to finish the story and sort things out , so she goes to find him . Karl comes back and sees not only Sir Ironsoul , but also the prince and realizing that the Prince is of much better quality than Sir Ironsoul decides to put the prince in the clocktower and keep Sir Ironsoul for himself . In the meantime , Gretl speaks to Fritz Favorite Characters : Gretl and Prince Florian , together . Stuff I wanted to know more about : What happens to Gretl , Florian , and the Dr . ? A sequel would not be amiss . Other Notes : The story is short , nicely illustrated and stands well at it ' s length and amount of detail , although more details could have been added to enrich the story without doing any harm . 5 / 5 Want to buy it on Amazon Posted by Beautiful Wednesday at 5 : 27 AM Email This BlogThis !

http://beautystat.com/site/skincare/new-findings-are-parabens-bad-for-you-or-safe-and-paraben-free-skincare-makeup-products/ | New Findings : Are Parabens Bad For You Or Safe ? And Paraben - Free Skincare & Makeup Products Theresa March 18 , 2012 Skincare 8 Comments 3,725 Views In March 2012 The Cosmetics Ingredient Review ( CIR ) reaffirmed that parabens — common preservatives used in cosmetics and personal care products — are safe . Parabens have a long history of use in cosmetic products and their safety is well documented and continually evaluated . The Cosmetics Ingredient Review ( CIR ) reviewed the safety of methylparaben , propylparaben , and butylparaben and concluded they were safe for use in cosmetic products at levels up to 25 % ( they are used at levels from 0.01 to 0.1 % ) . What Are Parabens ? Why Are They Used ? Parabens are the most widely used preservatives against a broad range of microorganisms in cosmetic products . Chemically , parabens are esters of p - hydroxybenzoic acid — naturally found in blueberries . The most common parabens used are methylparaben , propylparaben , and butylparaben ( either single or in combination ) . If we look at the ingredients list on our cosmetic product labels , we will find them mostly in products with high amounts of water such as in shampoos , conditioners , lotions and facial and shower cleansers and scrubs . How Safe Are Parabens ? Over the past decade parabens have a lot of controversy including that they can cause skin irritation and contact dermatitis . The Environmental Working Group ’ s ( EWG ) Skin Deep Cosmetics Database , which compares cosmetic ingredients to over fifty international toxicity databases , indicates that parabens are linked to cancer , endocrine disruption , reproductive toxicity , immunotoxicity , neurotoxicity and skin irritation . Since parabens are used to kill bacteria in water - based solutions , they inherently have some toxicity to cells . This all began with research back in a 2004 study ( released by Dr . Darbre in the Journal of Applied Toxicology ) , claiming that parabens mimic estrogen and lead to breast cancer . However , it has been criticized as flawed by many researchers including the American Cancer Society Controversy The mainstream cosmetic industry believes that parabens , like most cosmetic ingredients , are safe based on their long - term use , safety record and recent scientific studies . While several non - governmental organizations , such as Campaign for Safe Cosmetics , allege paraben usage in the cosmetic field to its link to cancer . In December 2005 , after considering the margins of safety for exposure to women and infants , the panel agreed that parabens are safe to use in cosmetics . The result has been accepted by the Food and Drug Administration ( FDA ) American Cancer Society and Canadian Cancer Society The U.S. FDA has classified methyl - and propylparabens as GRAS , which means they are Generally Regarded As Safe by medical and toxicological experts for use in preserving foods . The European Commission has also allowed parabens as safe for use as cosmetic preservatives . What Paraben - Free Alternatives Are There To Use ? Public interest organizations which raise awareness about cosmetic ingredients believed that further research was necessary to determine the safety of parabens and its alternatives . The list includes grape seed extract , organic acid ( i.e. potassium sorbate , sodium benzoate etc ) , sodium hydroxymethylglycinate and essential oils ( i.e. tea tree oil ) . Have You Gone Paraben - Free Yet ? “ Paraben - free ” is the new buzzword in the cosmetics world . Companies like Burts Bees Aubrey Cosmetics Jason Algenist Amazon Beauty Apothederm Cellure DermaDoctor Dr . Dennis Gross MD skin care Bare Escentuals Fusion Brand Kiehl ’ s L ’ Occitaine La Rochey Posay NV Perricone Skinceuticles Smashbox StriVectin The Body Shop and Vbeauty have launched a series of products ranging from face creams , cleansers , eye creams , serums , shampoos , conditioners , masks , anti - aging creams , make - up , etc . The global cosmetic giant Neutrogena has launched a new range of personal care products : Neutrogena Naturals — marketing a paraben - free campaign . It includes a face scrub , night cream , facial cleanser & bar , lip balm etc . Controversies Lead To An End In December 2011 , Halyna Breslawec — Chief Scientist of Personal Care Product Council — stated that , “ The cosmetics industry formally requested that the [ Cosmetics Ingredient Review ] ( CIR ) re - examine the safety of parabens as they are used in cosmetics and we are gratified that the panel has done so and confirmed the safety of these ingredients . ” This decision has pulled down a curtain to years of controversies about parabens and is appreciated by the Consumer Federation of America and the U.S Food and Drug Administration ( FDA ) – Rinki Pramanik , biotechnologist For more giveaways and contests , sign up for our newsletter HERE If you like this post , share it with your friends and give it a LIKE on Facebook .

http://beautytoptotoe.com/lip-stain-vs-lipstick/ | Lip Stain vs Lipstick : Which One Is Right For You ? Written by Jan Small on October 4 , 2011 Leave a Comment It used to be that the only color we had for our lips was lipstick . Over the years , they were offered in new beautiful colors , wonderful packaging and slightly different textures but there was no real innovation . We never heard of any other kind of color for the lips . Then along came colored glosses which were nice and shiny but lacking in staying power and finally we have lip stains , designed to stick around as much as 24 hours or more – a definite change on the old formula . But what is the difference between a lipstick and a lip stain ? And which one is right for you ? Ingredients The main ingredients in lipstick along with the pigment are waxes and oils along with lip softening emollients . This means the lipstick has a waxy texture which is soft on the lips and helps to condition them . A lip stain is either liquid in nature or a water based gel and can have a drying effect as a result . Format and Application A lipstick comes as a solid usually in the familiar lipstick case although it may be in a solid waxy block of color in a palette . The product can be applied straight from the stick by running it over the lips or you can use a lip brush to apply it . lip stain comes in a bottle , tube or jar and will normally come with an inbuilt means of application . A lip stain may be applied using a roll on mechanism , or the tube may have a felt tip which soaks up color like a marker pen or it may have an applicator wand with a sponge tip . A cream or gel lip stain may be applied with a brush which may or may not be included . With a lip stain you need to paint a very precise line on your lips as there will be an obvious edge where you have and have n ’ t applied it . Lipsticks are a bit more forgiving if you are not great at applying them . Pros and Cons Lipstick PROS Lipstick comes in all kinds of finishes from metallic , through matte , glossy and sheer . It is available in a huge range of colors and is easy to apply and reapply through the day with the help of a mirror . With its waxy texture a good lipstick will have a moisturizing effect on your lips . CONS On the downside , will rub off as the day progresses and you will have to reapply it if you want to keep color on your lips . Plus , there ’ s the problem of leaving lipstick marks everywhere . You ’ ll find it on the cheeks of your friends and on your coffee cup and glass and , if you ’ re not careful with your lipstick application , on your teeth . Lip Stain PROS Once you apply a , your color can last up to 24 hours with no touching up required . The color will stay where you put it on your lips and not transfer itself to your cup or glass . Lip stain wo n ’ t travel into any feathery lines around your lips so you will have a precise edge all day . CONS On the downside , lip stains often contain alcohol and other ingredients which have a drying effect on your lips . To counteract that many come with a moisturizing balm . Unfortunately you have to reapply that to keep up the moisturizing effect throughout the day , though you wo n ’ t need a mirror so it is quickly done . Lip stains are available in a more limited range of colors ( usually at the natural end of the spectrum ) so you have fewer choices . They are also a bit more difficult to apply as you have to paint carefully and quickly before they set . Yet you need patience to wait for each coat to set before adding the top coat of gloss or another layer to get a more intense color . They are not for you if you need to rush out of the door every day . If a lip stain does happen to wear off ( it should n ’ t if you do n ’ t bite or pick at it ) you have to remove it all and start again because touch ups do n ’ t give an even finish to the lips . And So Which Is Best ? On balance lip stains are worth it if you are prepared to take your time getting the application right and to keep your lips moisturized throughout the day . If you love lip color but hate leaving lipstick stains on everything they are well worth the effort . Choose a quality lip stain that does n ’ t wear off , apply it right and you ’ ll fall in love with these products . Category : Lips | [

Immigrant Stories Citations Ellis Island Ellis Island : The Island Before becoming the famous Ellis Island , it was a small piece of land , composed of two islands , perfect for the Lenni Lenape Indians to use to find sea food . In the 1600s , the Dutch purchased the land . Over the years , several people owned the deed to those islands . Nobody was sure they wanted it because it had once been used by pirates for execution . It was once used as a fort for the War of 1812 , but Fort Gibson was never attacked . However , upon building the fort , Ellis Island : The Immigration Center STRUCTURE OF THE ISLAND : Ellis Island , the immigration station opened in 1892 . It was so elegant ; many thought it was a resort hotel . Unfortunately , the building burned on June 15th , 1897 . The new Ellis opened in 1900 . Throughout all this , the islands were filled in with dirt , making them big enough to allow for more rooms and adding on more than 224 acres of land . Ellis had become a series of small islands , connected by narrow walkways . Island one was used for processing immigrants , while Islands two and three housed IMMIGRANTS : Ellis stayed open until 1954 . Over all that time , approximately twelve million immigrants passed through the island . At the peak of immigration in 1907 , almost 12,000 immigrants came each day . Many that traveled to America were from Europe , including countries such as Russia , Italy , Germany , Hungary , Czechoslovakia , Denmark and Armenia . After 1917 , checks for health issues , literacy and money became mandatory . Most first and second class passengers were able to be checked on the boats . It was believed that anyone who had enough money Once they came to Ellis , they were inspected for any kind of illnesses . Inspectors looked at everything including their heads and eyes and were even watched for signs of limping . If anyone found anything wrong , they marked on their clothes with chalk in order to alert someone else later on . Here is a list of some of the codes they used when using the chalk . H = Heart L = Lameness X = Suspected Mental Illness EX : Examine Farther Ct : Trachoma Then they were checked off by inspectors from ship manifests and asked questions by officials . They had to have at least $ 20 and , after 1917 , they had to read a passage in their own language . In all , most immigrants stayed on the island for about 3 - 5 hours if they passed all of their inspections . Those that did not pass were required to stay on the island or return to their home country . Most families decided to stay together on the island and wait for their family member to be healthy again , even though some were not allowed to have visitors . A few kids were even there so long that they attended classes held on the island . WORKERS : In order to keep things running smoothly , there were lots of workers . Groupers ( people that put immigrants into different groups based on gender , boat , ect . ) , doctors , inspectors , cooks , maids , dock workers , special inquiry jobs , nurses , administrators , social workers , teachers , interpreters and more . People that could be needed at any time , such as doctors and nurses , lived on the island , sometimes with their families . There were also many volunteers that came to help with or welcome the immigrants Ellis Island : The Museum Eventually , immigration slowed down and Ellis Island closed its doors . In 1976 , America ’ s Bicentennial , researchers recorded immigrant ’ s memories . Restoration of the island took place in the 1980s and in 1990 , Ellis Island reopened as an immigrant museum and remains open to the public today . More Facts about Ellis Island and an immigrant ’ s journey to becoming a citizen at that time . Ellis Island sits in New York Bay , but is owned by both New York and New Jersey . New York owns the original land and New Jersey owns the area that was filled in for more room . About a quarter of all Americans can trace their ancestry back to Ellis . Irish immigrant , Annie Moore , was Ellis Island ’ s first immigrant . On January 1st , 1892 , her 15th birthday , she arrived with her two younger brothers . She was awarded gold and a certificate , but she was more excited to finally be joining her parents in America . A statue of her still stands at Ellis . Depending on the ship that immigrants were traveling on , the trip to America from Europe could take anywhere from five days to five weeks . Before the 1920 ’ s , immigrants did not need passports . Most people were inspected in Europe before they boarded the boat and were regularly checked on the journey . If immigrants were breathless from the walk up to Ellis Island , they were suspected of hiding an illness . When inspectors checked immigrants ’ eyes , some used metal hooks that were supposed to be used for buttoning shoes . If immigrants claimed to already have a job waiting for them , they were more likely to be deported back to their homes because they were thought to be taking jobs away from people who were already Americans . Inspectors usually tried to find reasons to legally turn someone away . Women and girls who were traveling without a man were not permitted to leave the island until a male relative came to get them . Girls had to be at least 16 if they were traveling alone , unless someone was waiting for them in America . In 1913 , there were more than 650 people working on Ellis . Most of the workers on Ellis were immigrants themselves . Sometimes a film crew would come to the island to shoot scenes for a movie set there . In the 1920 ' s , Congress set limits on the number of people that were allowed into America . This was called the quota system . During World War II , the island housed people that were thought to be threats . A Spanish immigrant named Rafael Guastavino tiled the ceiling of one of the rooms on Ellis in 1918 . When they restored the building in the 1980 ’ s , they only had to replace Seventeen of the 28,832 . That ’ s only about 6 % .

They can hide in many tiny places , and the treatment process to get rid of them must be very thorough for a few months to fully eliminate them . If you feel you are unable to take care of a bed bug infestation yourself , contacting a licensed pest control company that provide professional bed bugs extermination service may be the next best option to ensure a thorough elimination of the bugs from your house . However before choosing a professional bed bug exterminator , you need to know that not all pest control companies are of equal quality and some may not be as qualified or as well trained in managing bed bugs . To ensure a proper extermination of bed bugs in your home , you need to hire the right company or professional , be clear about what you expect and want done , plus monitor the service you get . Get A F.R.E.E Quote Here ! Selecting The Right Professional Pest Control Company Use the phone and web directories to find listings .

Check with them how satisfied they were with the bed bug extermination service . Always choose and deal with a qualified and licensed pest management company that has had many years of experience and understands the best methods to deal with bed bugs . Check with your local state pest control regulatory agencies for information regarding the status of the pest management companies you intend to hire . In most states the regulatory agency is the State Department of Agriculture . If possible , evaluate or ask if the pest control companies are members of any national , state or local pest management associations . Always interview companies before you make any selection .

Are there any guarantees given after the treatment ? If there is , you will also need to check what the guarantee covers , how long it will last and what kind of prevention and management work you must do to keep it in force . Bed Bugs Extermination Costs In general , most good pest control companies will first send down a specialist to conduct a visual inspection of your home before quoting you a price . In most cases , the cost of the extermination will be base on the inspection findings and not on a flat fee . Depending on the extent of the infestation , typically , one should be prepared to pay between $ 250 to $ 1000 per room . The cost will also include a recommended plan of action and may also include any necessary repair work that needs to be done to solve the problem . Find Experienced Bed Bug Exterminator - - Get Fast , FREE Quotes Today ! Tip : If the treatment is costly and a sizable amount of money is involved , do n ' t rush into making an immediate decision or signing a contract . Instead , try to get more bids from several pest control companies and compare their price to service . However when you are ready to make a decision , remember to buy value , not price . Sometimes the cheapest price may not be always the best solution for you and you should also beware of exterminators that offer bargains that sound too good to be true . | [

http://bedding.lovetoknow.com/table-linens/chart-standard-tablecloth-sizes | Chart of Standard Tablecloth Sizes By Sally Painter Former Commercial and Residential Designer A chart for standard tablecloth sizes is an excellent tool for finding the perfect size you need for your next tablecloth purchase . You can quickly reference it instead of trying to guess the correct size . How to Use the Tablecloth Chart The following steps are quick and easy to follow when using the printable pdf chart . Download and print the chart so you can save and use it when you need it . Click to download and print the chart . Step One Find the shape and size of your table using the far left column in the chart . If you do n ' t know the size , use a retractable tape measure to take an exact measurement . This will give you the size of the tabletop and the measurements you ' ll use to determine the tablecloth size you need . Rectangle and oval tables come in two standard widths . The most common is 36 " and the other is 40 " wide . For a round table you will to know the diameter . Measure the center of the table from one end to the other . Square tables range from 30 " to 72 " . You can determine the size of your table by measuring one side . Step Two Decide the length of the drop , which is the amount of material that will hang over the edge of the table , you want for your tablecloth . If you ' re undecided , then sit down at the table and with a ruler or tape measure find 8 " , measuring from the edge of the table . If this length is n ' t as long as you ' d like , then try 10 " and finally 12 " . Step Three Now that you know the size of your table and the drop length you want , you ' re ready to find the size of the tablecloth you ' ll need with the chart . Round For example if your table is round and 120 " in diameter and you want an 8 " drop , you will first find your table size underneath the Table Shape and Size column . Next , move across the chart underneath the Tablecloth Size Drop 8 " column . The tablecloth size you need is 136 " in diameter . Square To find the tablecloth size needed for a 42 " square table with a long drop , find the table shape and size underneath the Table Shape and Size column . Next , move across the chart underneath the Tablecloth Size Drop 12 " column . The tablecloth size you need is a 58 " x 58 " square . Rectangle and Oval To find the tablecloth size needed for a rectangle or oval table , you will use the length and width measurements you took earlier . In the chart listings you will see that the ( 40 " ) widths are shown in parentheses in the Shape and Size column as well as each of the Tablecloth Size Drop columns . If your table is a rectangle shape and measures 72 " x 36 " and you wish for a 10 " drop , then the tablecloth size you need is 92 " x 56 " . If your table has a 40 " width instead of 36 " , then you would use the numbers in parentheses - ( 60 " ) for a tablecloth size of 92 " x 60 " . For an oval table , you will use the rectangle size measurements and the correlating tablecloth sizes . Just be sure that when you purchase the tablecloth it is meant for an oval table and not a rectangle table . Understanding Tablecloth Drop Length Options The material of a standard tablecloth needs to fall over the edge of table . That material is called a drop and it impacts the length you need so the tablecloth fits your table and provides the look you desire . 8 Inch Drop The drop length can vary depending on the dining event or personal preference . The standard drop length used by most food and catering services is 8 " . This means that the tablecloth will drop 8 " over the edge of the table , evenly on all sides . 10 and 12 Inch Drops You are n ' t limited to only using 8 " for the drop in your tablecloth . Many people prefer the look of a 10 " or 12 " drop . However , these lengths tend to be uncomfortable for some diners since the tablecloth often bunches up underneath the table or makes it difficult for diners to move or even sit underneath the table . That ' s why the food service industry uses the 8 " standard . 30 Inch Drop If you want the banquet look where the tablecloth touches the floor , then the standard drop is 30 " . This drop length is used mostly for banquets dinners , especially wedding receptions . A 30 " drop length will mean that the tablecloth puddles slightly on floor . Quick Reference for Finding Tablecloth Sizes Using the chart you have a quick way to find the correct size for any standard size tablecloth . With the various options for drop length , the chart becomes a highly valuable tool for making the right purchase for your next tablecloth .

By Miranda Reiman , Certified Angus Beef | Dec 14 , 2012 Property taxes do n ’ t mind if your cows are black or white or red . Ranches must have fences , pickups and equipment , regardless of what the calves weigh at weaning . “ Fixed cost does n ’ t care whether you ’ ve got 400 cows , 200 cows , 60 cows or 2 cows . It ’ s going to be the same , ” says Stan Bevers , Texas A & M University beef economist . “ The only way to drive down the impact is to get more cows . ” As the industry anxiously awaits a drought reversal and herd rebuilding , many experts say now is the time to analyze overall carrying expenses . “ One of the problems that we run into is that guys do n ’ t calculate their cow costs , so things get out of perspective , ” says Jim McGrann , emeritus ranch management economist at Texas A & M . “ They will try to save in areas where it ’ s not going to make that big of a difference . ” " > McGrann implemented the management program know as Standardized Performance Analysis ( SPA ) in the 1990s , to help producers benchmark their herd against others . Bevers now manages that program , which shows an average annual cost of $ 590.85 for a cow in 2012 . “ I started in 1989 . Then , the average cost was about a dollar per day , so we have n ’ t quite doubled , but it ’ s getting close , ” he says . Each year , he adds , the largest components are labor , management , depreciation and feed . It ’ s important to keep vehicle and equipment cots in check , McGrann says . “ But everything else is more of a question of execution of a good plan and watching how they spend their money . ” Reproduction matters A key is keeping a focus on reproduction “ Cost control is more closely related to making sure they do n ’ t hurt reproduction , ” he says . “ For example , if they do n ’ t feed right , they are going to hurt reproduction . If they do n ’ t get high calf crops relative to their exposed females , they can never have a low cost operation . ” Scott Brown , University of Missouri ag economist , ( pictured to the right ) points to a tool developed by colleague Brent Carpenter that is designed to help determine what one could pay for a female . “ Losing a calf in one of her first three or four years reduces what you should pay for her by more than $ 600 , ” he says , noting that predictable calving - ease genetics may provide some risk protection . “ If you ’ re not a cost - effective producer , you ’ re not going to be in business regardless , ” Brown says . “ But many of those costs you do n ’ t have much control over because of your cow choice . I think there is a lot more gain to be had on the revenue side than the expense side . ” When rain comes , the decisions made in the rebuilding process could have a huge impact on future production . “ Really the market is telling you that you have to have cattle that will grade and yield and be taken to a pretty heavy weight , ” McGrann says . That all starts with genetics , and better bulls come with a higher price tag . But McGrann says that should n ’ t scare a producer . “ When I ’ m purchasing a bull , it will have an economic life of anywhere from three to five years , ” he says . “ When you put it in the proper perspective — what does it means in terms of depreciation per female serviced — it ’ s really a low cost number . ” A Closer Look : High - Profit Vs . Low - Profit Beef Producers A $ 3,100 bull servicing 25 cows per year for 5 years averages out to a $ 45.49 annual service cost per cow exposed . That ’ just 7.6 % of total cow costs . Spend another $ 400 on a bull and that number increases less than $ 4 , at 8.2 % of total cow costs . Increasing by $ 1,000 to buy the bull for $ 4,100 would figure out to a $ 55.29 service charge , or 9.2 % of cow costs . That ’ s holding everything else equal . What if those genetics are more expensive because they ’ re more reliable , more efficient or help cut costs in other ways ? Looking at the revenue side helps prove the value . “ What ’ s it really mean if I get another 10 or 20 pounds of weaning weight on those calves ? ” Brown asks . In terms of cow costs , the Missouri calculator says you could pay $ 175 more for a cow if she weans 20 - lb . heavier calves . “ The chance to improve genetics in your herd should be something that everyone is looking at , ” Brown says . In his definition , that would fall into several categories : mothering ability and calving ease , growth and carcass quality “ Bulls that are going to have maternal traits would be a big piece of that , ” says James Henderson , of Bradley 3 Ranch in the lower Texas panhandle . The seedstock Angus breeder has been focused on a cow that works in the mesquite brush environmental they call home . Structural soundness is a bare minimum , but after that he suggests commercial Angus producers look at benchmarking tools like the SPA program they ’ ve participated in since its inception , as well as recent advancements like the GeneMax DNA test from Certified Angus Beef . “ We ’ ve found that our high marbling cattle are our easiest keeping cattle , ” Henderson says . “ I think marbling may be a more valuable reproductive trait than it is a carcass trait . ” When he hears people assigning a negative correlation to the two , he wonders if they ’ re confusing marbling and milk . “ In the Angus breed , there are a lot of high - marbling cattle that are also high milk — it ’ s pretty easy to misread which one of those traits is costing you money , ” he says . “ High - milk cows are going to be much more expensive to maintain and rebreed , but high - marbling cows , in my experience , are the ones that survive in tough times . ” McGrann says the records do n ’ t dispute that : “ I ’ ve probably done as much individual producer analysis as anybody in the country , from a business perspective , and I ’ ve found no relationship between quality of the calf and cost of production . ” " > TAGS : Ranching 3 comments | [

http://beeinmybonnetco.blogspot.com/2018/01/cutie-pie-pincushion-tutorial.html | Wednesday January 24 2018 Cutie Pie Pincushion Tutorial YaY Today is tutorial day do you want to make a pincushion Ive been playing with my new Bake Sale 2 fabric collection and I have some tutorials planned for you using scrappy happy squares I made my Cutie Pie Pincushion with the 3 12 squares And of course a pie pan I use cue little 5 tins to make my pie pincushions You can get them at Amazon You could easily use a Bake Sale 2 5 Stacker to cut your 3 12 squares from you will need 8 squares total Pair up two of them and sew a straight line from point to point Trim off leftover side leaving 14 seam allowance Press your half square triangles open and place them on your design board like this Pay attention to how the seams go different directions to form pie slice angles Sew your block together and press the seams open Your block should measure 6 12 square at this point Grab a piece of Nutmeg Confetti Cotton fabric and cut it 6 12 square for the bottom of the crust Grab my 6 round Circle Ruler as well And place it on the wrong side of your pie block Use the lines on the ruler to center it perfectly and trace around the circle Now add the Nutmeg circle to the bottom and pin the two together Sew all the way around the line backstitch where you start and stop to secure Trim an approximate 14 seam allowance Pinch open your pie like this And cut a small slit in the back for turning Turn and press You can use the Clover Turner to help smooth the edges of your circle Now sew 12 in from the edges of the pie This will form your fluted crust edge after stuffing it with fiberfill Fill your cutie pie After filling stitch it closed with strong thread I used matching Aurifloss Top of Cutie Pie I also like to put a little bit of weight in the pan before glueing my pie on top It makes it nicer to use the pincushion because its easier if it doesnt slide everywhere while youre trying to stick a pin in it You could use plastic pellets for stuffing dolls or silica sand like I do Mr Honey uses it when sandblasting so I always have access to it and it works great I keep it inside a little baggie and glue the bag and all to the bottom of the pan If your pins go in it it sharpens them I actually used about half as much as you see in the photo Now place your pie in the pan and keep your turning tool handy Use your glue gun and go around the inside edges of the pan a little at a time using the tool to push down onto the 12 seam as you go to form a fluted pie crust So cute and easy as pie Load up your Cutie Pie with Pretty Pins and keep it next to your machine CLICK HERE to get some of your own These are my new Pretty Pins I love them I designed this cute little plastic mason jar container and they fit perfectly inside FYI Ill be using these containers to hold other cute things in the future I hope you love my Cutie Pie Pincushion and decide to make one too xx Lori Posted by Lori Holt

http://beekeeping.wikia.com/wiki/Honey_bee | in : Apis ( genus ) Honey bee English Edit Share Honey bee Honey bee carrying pollen to its hive Scientific classification Kingdom : Animalia Phylum : Arthropoda Class : Insecta Order : Hymenoptera Family : Apidae Subfamily : Apinae Tribe : Apini Latreille , 1802 Genus : Apis Linnaeus 1758 Species Apis nearctica Subgenus Apis Apis cerana Apis koschevnikovi Apis mellifera Apis nigrocincta Subgenus Micrapis Apis andreniformis Apis florea Megapis Apis dorsata Honey bees ( or honeybees ) are all within the genus , the only extant member of the tribe Apini of the subfamily Apinae . Honey bees are primarily distinguished by the production and storage of honey and the construction of perennial , colonial nests out of wax . Honey bees are classified into seven recognized species with as many as 44 subspecies . Historically , only six to eleven species had been recognized . Honey bees represent a small fraction of the approximately 20,000 known species of bees . Other species of bees also produce and store honey , but only members of the genus are considered to be true honey bees . Taxonomy Edit The 7 living species of the genus , , are classified into three distinct subgenera Apis ( subgenus ) Linnaeus - consisting of 4 species : A . cerana Fabricius A . koschevnikovi Enderlein A . mellifera Linnaeus A . nigrocincta Smith Megapis Ashmead - consisting of 1 specie : A . dorsata Fabricius Micrapis Ashmead - consisting of 2 species : A . andreniformis Smith A . florea References ↑ 1.0 1.1 Engel , Michael S .

http://beekeeping.wikia.com/wiki/Nuc | in : Apiculture Equipment Nuc Edit Share Nucs , or Nucleus Colonies , are small honey bee colonies created from larger colonies . The term refers both to the smaller size box and the colony of honeybees within it . The name is derived from the fact that a nuc hive is centered around a queen - the nucleus of the honey bee colony . Contents show Layout Edit A nuc hive has all the features of a standard 10 frame Langstroth hive except with a reduced width . The link shows a United States Department of Agriculture USDA lay out for building a nuc . [ 1 ] Nuc Creation The nuc box , also called a nuc , is a smaller version of a normal beehive , designed to hold fewer frames . The nuc box is smaller because it is intented to contain a smaller number of honeybees , and a smaller space makes it easier for the bees to control the temperature and humidity of the colony , which is vital for brood rearing . When using a Langstroth hive , a nuc is created by pulling two to five frames from an existing colony . These frames and the nurse bees clinging to them form the basis for the nuc colony . A nuc may or may not be given a queen at the time it is created . If the nuc does not contain a queen or queen - cell , but does contain eggs , the workers will create a new queen from one of the eggs . If the nuc is to be given a new queen , the queen will be introduced to the colony in her queen cage either at the time the nuc is split from the main colony , or after a period of queenlessness that increases the likelihood that the new queen will be Care and feeding A nuc is extremely vulnerable , as it possesses in some cases less than a tenth of the workers in a normal colony . Nucs are almost always fed using a boardman feeder or frame feeder . Feeding allows the worker to remain in the nuc , acting as nurse for developing brood . Because of their small population , Nucs are vulnerable to robbing , in which a stronger hive steals all the nectar , honey , or syrup from a weaker hive . The bees from a robbing hive will kill any bees that defend the nuc . Robbing can lead to starvation in days . Uses A nucleus colony can be used to prevent overcrowding in a larger , healthy colony by splitting some of the population off to a new colony . A nuc can also be used to care for spare queens . The loss of a queen in a large colony can set the colony back by up to a month . A nucleus colony can be combined with the larger colony to re - queen it with a much smaller break in brood rearing . A nuc can also grow into a full sized colony , given proper time , favorable weather The terms ' nuc ' and ' split ' are not strictly interchangeable . While a nuc may have a number of different uses , a split more often refers to dividing a colony for the purposes of growing the removed bees back to a full sized colony . A nuc is not normally intended for overwintering , as nuc colonies do not possess a large enough winter cluster to survive winter in harsher climates . Beekeepers often combine nucs together in the fall to produce a single , strong colony . This results in the loss of all but one queen , but provides a colony capable of surviving winter . In warm climates , nucs can overwinter . Nucs can also survive winter indoors , or in an observation hive . Mating nucs Mating nucs are a special type of nuc that may be even smaller than nucs that use standard size frames . These tiny nucs are sometimes called mini - mating nucs . Mating nucs are used in a queen mating yard . A capped queen cell is put into a mating nuc together with a sufficient number of attendant worker bees . When the virgin queen emerges and matures ( a process that takes around five to seven days from the point at which she emerges ) , she flies out and mates with up to 20 drones before returning to the mating nuc . When mating is successful a nice brood pattern can be seen on the frames of the mating nuc . Successfully mated queens are caged and shipped to be used as production queens by beekeepers . Queen breeders raise thousands of queens in this fashion . External links More about Nucs from Bush Bees Categories Apiculture Equipment Add category | [

It is affectionaly known as " The White Death " , due to the cheap and bitter taste . In April 2009 , the alcohol content was dropped from 4.6 % to 4.0 % , where it currently remains . This is a huge kick in the face to beer drinkers and only occurred to allow the brewer to save on tax but not pass on the savings .

It is often provided at Australian parties , available on tape at most Australian pubs , and the beer of choice when imported or premium beer is too expensive . The alcohol content was reduced from 5.0 % to 4.6 % in 2003 . This was due to an increase in the excise ( tax ) levied on alcohol by the Federal Government . Fosters had a choice - reduce the alcohol or increase the price . As Carlton Draught is a stable beer for Fosters , increasing the price would have been suicide . So , the alcohol content was reduced by 0.4 % . A similar change happened with Fosters VB in 2007 , although for different reasons . Carlton Draught stubbies include trivia under the bottle cap .

The greater the degree of hydrogenation , the more saturated the fat becomes ) . This results in an oil that has been converted to a semi - solid fat which still melts upon baking , stabilizes the flavor of the oil , and makes it less susceptible to spoilage .

In 2003 , Denmark became the first country to strictly regulate the sale of foods containing trans fats ( no more than 2 % in any food ) thereby attempting to limit citizen intake to less than 1g / day . In 2008 Switzerland followed with similar legislation and New York City banned on trans fats in restaurants . Calgary , Canada , required restaurants to cut trans fats to no more than 2 % . Due to tremendous amount of negative press and pressure The US FDA ruled that the amount of trans fat in a food item must be stated on the label as of January 1 , 2006 . Note that foods containing less than .5g / serving can be labeled 0 % trans fats . Many health experts believe .5 grams is still too high because consumption of many " zero trans fats " ( those with .01 - .49 grams trans fats ) foods add up . Avoid all trans fats by not consuming items with the words " partially hydrogenated " on the ingredient label . While there has been movement to reduce trans fats , they are still extremely common in processed foods and are difficult to avoid Found In thousands of packaged and processed foods including : bread , snack foods , desserts , baked goods , crackers , ice cream , frozen meals , donuts , fried foods , french fries , margarine , shortening , cookies , cereal , chips , many restaurant and fast foods Possible Health Effects Hundreds of studies have been conducted on the harmful effects of trans fats including : increased cholesterol , linked to heart disease and risk of heart attack , inflammation of immune system , stroke , diabetes , resistance to insulin , reduces responsiveness of cells in blood vessels . May also promote development of Alzheimer ' s Disease . Allergy Information May be Genetically Engineered or Modified , Soy In The News May 27 , 2010 : The New England Journal of Medicine reports , " Concerns exist that in reformulating the foods manufacturers may replace the trans fat with saturated fat , in which case the combined content of these fats in the foods could remain about the same or even increase , mitigating health benefits .

http://beforeitsnews.com/health/2013/03/cure-cancer-with-kombucha-2475612.html | By Epigenetics And Nutrition Contributor profile | More stories Story Views Now : Last Hour : Last 24 Hours : Total : Cure Cancer With Kombucha Thursday , March 14 , 2013 21 : 10 EpigeneticsAndNutriton . com is a source for optimal health and wellness ! What Is Kombucha ? Kombucha is an ancient Chinese drink and its history dates back to over 2000 years and is referred to as the ‘ Immortal Health Elixir ’ . It is a sweetened tea that ’ s been left to ferment ; the bacteria and yeast allow it to reproduce which gives it the appearance of a mushroom . The therapeutic effects of the tea has been proven to fight and prevent cancer as well as arthritis and other diseases . Even though many have testified to this , the FDA still warn people off consuming Kombucha . Kombucha Cured Laraine Dave ’ s Cancer Find Out More > 94,453 The following is a testament to the healing qualities of Kombucha on cancer : “ I began drinking Kombucha in 1993 when a family friend gave us one of his baby cultures to make for ourselves and loved ones . Making it in our kitchen , I was initially put off by the unusual taste , but as my energy levels increased and my mood improved , the taste began to grow on me , and I found myself craving Kombucha and drinking it every day . Everyone seemed to notice my “ healthy glow , ” so I began bringing Kombucha to coworkers and serving it to clients at the Beverly Hills department In 1995 , I was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive form of breast cancer , known for moving quickly to the lymph nodes and bones , and based on the size of the tumor ( almost that of a golf ball ) doctors could not even give me a year to live . I was tested again a week later , and to everyone ’ s surprise , my cancerous cells had not metastasized . My physicians asked me if I was doing anything special . “ Drinking Kombucha everyday ” I replied , since it really was the It truly is one of nature ’ s best kept secrets , and I made a commitment to spread the word of Kombucha to all those near , dear , far , and wide , in the hope that it could touch other people ’ s lives like it touched mine . I am proud to say that to this day , I remain cancer - free , and Kombucha plays a major role in my life , keeping me healthy , happy and strong . ” The Therapeutic Effects Of Kombucha The tea is beneficial for the whole body and Kombucha ’ s therapeutic effects include : - strengthening the immune system - fighting yeast infections - aiding in metabolism - helping joint problems - treating the sense of well - being of the body The mushroom juice is able to go to the root cause of the body ’ s ailments .

Stimulates health hair growth , thickening hair and helping to eliminate grey hair , thus long - term aid in avoiding balding . ( Baldness , once established , can not be reversed ) Useful in preventing and treating gout and ulcers . By energizing and rejuvenating cells and tissues , it improves sexual potency . Ronald Reagan Also Drank Kombucha In 1983 it was first reported that Ronald Reagan was ill with cancer . Periodically reports of ongoing chemotherapy for colon , bladder and now metastases were made known . The results of such standard allopathic “ cut and burn ” methods were inconclusive , and Reagan grew increasingly uncomfortable with them . Renowned physicians in the USA remembered the therapy tips in Solzhenitsyn ’ s writings . This was further investigated and Solzhenitsyn , who lived as an immigrant in the USA , was questioned . He gave the physicians valuable hints and at once several Kombucha were obtained from Japan . Ronald Reagan consumed daily 1 liter ( about a quart ) of Kombucha and no mention of cancer is made anymore . Reagan appears to have continued to consumer the mushroom juice throughout his life .

http://beforeitsnews.com/health/2013/04/do-flax-seeds-help-with-weight-loss-2480982.html | By Kyle Norton Contributor profile | More stories Story Views Now : Last Hour : Last 24 Hours : Total : Do Flaxseeds Help with Weight Loss ? Saturday , April 13 , 2013 6 : 25 Home of Kyle J . Norton for The Better of Living & Living Health Guested Author : Elena Mauceri Yup . It ’ s true . Flax seeds can help you to lose weight . How ? Find Out More > 69,151 Well , flax seeds are very high in fiber . Health experts have promoted the use of fiber for weight loss , and with good reason . Fiber makes you feel full because it absorbs fluid , then expands , which creates a satisfied feeling . Research supports the use of flax seeds for weight loss , too . It is proven to reduce blood sugar levels , and may even help to prevent type 2 diabetes ! Healthy blood sugar levels are critical to achieving , and maintaining , a healthy weight . Flax seeds also have a whole host of other nutrients that make them a true superfood . They are known for their anti - inflammatory and anticancer abilities . So use flaxseed for weight loss – you ’ ll get lots of additional benefits ! How do you eat flax seed ? I do n ’ t recommend using flax seed oil because it can go rancid so easily . It ’ s a very fragile oil , and must be kept away from any light and refrigerated at all times , or it will go bad . Some people have difficulty digesting oils , too . So it ’ s best to eat flax seed in its whole seed form , or grind it just before you ’ re going to use it . I grind about a cup at a time , then keep it in the fridge . I use this up within a week , so it stays very fresh . You can use your blender to grind the seeds , or a food processor . Some people use a coffee grinder – just make sure you clean all the coffee grounds out before you put the flax seed in ! There are LOTS of ways you can eat flax seed . I make low carb muffins with it , using ground flax seed as a flour replacement . You can add flax seeds to just about anything . It ’ s best to eat them raw . I sometimes put a teaspoon or two into my smoothies . This makes for a grain - y smoothie that might need some chewing , but I like that . Give it a try . Another way to eat flax seed is in a pre - made fiber mix . There are several fiber products available that include flax as a primary ingredient . You could also use a fiber product during the mid - afternoon when you get the “ munchies ” , and it will help to keep you from turning to fattening foods . Bottom Line The connection between flax seeds and weight loss is strong , and research shows the importance of fiber for weight loss . Use flaxseed in a variety of ways , including shakes / smoothies and in your baking recipes . It will keep you full , and away from eating foods that promote weight gain .

http://beginnersbook.com/2014/01/2d-arrays-in-c-example/ | Two dimensional ( 2D ) arrays in C programming with example By Chaitanya Singh | Filed Under : c - programming An array of arrays is known as 2D array . The two dimensional ( 2D ) array in C programming is also known as matrix . A matrix can be represented as a table of rows and columns . Before we discuss more about two Dimensional array lets have a look at the following C program . Simple Two dimensional ( 2D ) Array Example For now do n ’ t worry how to initialize a two dimensional array , we will discuss that part later . This program demonstrates how to store the elements entered by user in a 2d array and how to display the elements of a two dimensional array . # include < stdio . h > int main ( ) { / * 2D array declaration * / int disp 2 ] [ 3 ] ; / * Counter variables for the loop * / i j for i = 0 i < 2 + + ) for j = 0 j < 3 + + ) printf " Enter value for disp [ % d ] [ % d ] : " j ) ; scanf " % d " disp i ] [ ] ) ; / / Displaying array elements printf " Two Dimensional array elements : \ n " ) ; printf " % d " disp ] ) ; if = = ) { printf " \ n " return Output : Enter value ] : 1 Enter value 1 ] : 4 5 6 Two Dimensional array elements 4 5 6 Initialization of 2D Array There are two ways to initialize a two Dimensional arrays during declaration . 10 11 12 13 } , 14 15 16 17 } ; OR 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 } ; Although both the above declarations are valid , I recommend you to use the first method as it is more readable , because you can visualize the rows and columns of 2d array in this method . Things that you must consider while initializing a 2D array We already know , when we initialize a normal array ( or you can say one dimensional array ) during declaration , we need not to specify the size of it . However that ’ s not the case with 2D array , you must always specify the second dimension even if you are specifying elements during the declaration . Let ’ s understand this with the help of few examples – / * Valid declaration * / abc / * Valid declaration * / abc [] [ / * Invalid declaration – you must specify second dimension * / [] [] / * Invalid because of the same reason mentioned above * / ] [] How to store user input data into 2D array We can calculate how many elements a two dimensional array can have by using this formula : The array arr [ n1 ] [ n2 ] can have n1 * n2 elements . The array that we have in the example below is having the dimensions 5 and 4 . These dimensions are known as subscripts . So this array has first subscript value as 5 and second subscript value as 4 . So the array abc [ 5 ] [ 4 ] can have 5 * 4 = 20 elements . To store the elements entered by user we are using two for loops , one of them is a nested loop . The outer loop runs from 0 to the ( first subscript - 1 ) and the inner for loops runs from 0 to the ( second subscript - 1 ) . This way the the order in which user enters the elements would be abc [ 0 ] [ 0 ] , abc [ 0 ] [ 1 ] , abc [ 0 ] [ 2 ] … so on . # include < stdio . h > main ( ) { / * 2D array declaration * / ] ; / * Counter variables for the loop * / " Enter value for abc [ % d ] [ % d ] : " scanf " % d " abc return In above example , I have a 2D array abc of integer type . Conceptually you can visualize the above array like this : However the actual representation of this array in memory would be something like this : Pointers & 2D array As we know that the one dimensional array name works as a pointer to the base element ( first element ) of the array . However in the case 2D arrays the logic is slightly different . You can consider a 2D array as collection of several one dimensional arrays . So abc [ 0 ] would have the address of first element of the first row ( if we consider the above diagram number 1 ) . similarly abc [ 1 ] would have the address of the first element of the second row . To understand it better , lets write a C program – ( ) = { } , 7 8 9 18 19 < = / * The correct way of displaying an address would be * printf ( " % p " , abc [ i ] ) ; but for the demonstration * purpose I am displaying the address in int so that * you can relate the output with the diagram above that * shows how many bytes an int element uses and how they * are stored in contiguous memory locations . * * / printf " % d " Output : 1600101376 1600101392 1600101408 1600101424 1600101440 The actual address representation should be in hex for which we use % p instead of % d , as mentioned in the comments . This is just to show that the elements are stored in contiguous memory locations . You can relate the output with the diagram above to see that the difference between these addresses is actually number of bytes consumed by the elements of that row . The addresses shown in the output belongs to the first element of each row abc [ 0 ] [ 0 ] abc [ 1 ] [ 0 ] abc [ 2 ] [ 0 ] abc [ 3 ] [ 0 ] and abc [ 4 ] [ 0 ] ❮ Previous Next ❯ | [

http://behindmlm.com/mlm-reviews/vstream-tv-review-legit-media-streaming-for-349-one-time/ | vStream TV Review : Legit media streaming for $ 349 ? Mar . 11 , 2015 in MLM Reviews There is no information on the vStream TV website indicating who owns or runs the business . The vStream TV website domain ( “ vstreamtv . com ” ) was registered on the 27th of January 2015 and lists a David Bremner as the owner . An address in the US state of Virginia is also provided . Based on the Nutronix domain email address used to register the vStream TV domain , David Bremner would appear to be a relative of Bob Bremner ( right ) . Bob Bremner is the Founder of both Nutronix and The Legends Network Why this information is n ’ t provided on the vStreamTV website is a mystery . Read on for a full review of the vStream TV MLM business opportunity . The vStream TV Product Line vStream TV market a $ 349 Android based streaming box . As per the vStream TV website : VStream TV ’ s Streaming Media Players seamlessly combines live TV and the best in streaming entertainment – bringing more hit shows , movies , music and more to your TV . The technical specs provided for the vStream TV box are as follows : Android 4.4 KitKat supports a Google browser , Flash10 . 2 and HTML5 . The all new aluminum housing is low - noise for cooling . AmLogic S805 Quad Core ARM Cortex A5 1.5 GHz CPU + Quad Core Mali 450 GPU DDR3 1 GB and 8 GB NAND Flash storage One question that popped up in my head was who is providing the licensing rights for the content streamed through the box ? This information is unfortunately not provided on the vStream TV website . The vStream TV box is simply advertised for a one - time cost of $ 349 , with the box itself providing access to a continuously updated library of streamable media content . The vStream TV Compensation Plan A copy of the vStream TV compensation plan is provided on the company ’ s website , however further research reveals this to only be a partial copy of the plan . As such I ’ ve had to combine information from vStream TV affiliate presentations as well as the official compensation plan documentation provided by the company . vStream TV Affiliate Ranks There are twelve affiliate ranks within the vStream TV compensation plan . Along with their respective qualification criteria , they are as follows : Junior Executive – generate 100 PV in sales volume and have a downline that has generated at least 100 GV Executive – have a downline that has generated at least 1500 GV Senior Executive – have a downline that has generated at least 2500 GV Regional – have a downline that has generated at least 5000 GV National – have a downline that has generated at least 10,000 GV International – have a downline that has generated at least 20,000 GV 1 Star – have a downline that has generated at least 50,000 GV 2 Star – have a downline that has generated at least 100,000 GV 3 Star – have a downline that has generated at least 200,000 GV 3 Star Ruby – have a downline that has generated at least 300,000 GV 3 Star Emerald – have a downline that has generated at least 600,000 GV 3 Star Diamond – have a downline that has generated at least 1,200,000 GV Note that PV stands for “ Personal Volume ” and is sales volume generated by an affiliate . This includes their own purchases . GV stands for “ Group Volume ” and is the sales volume generated by an affiliate ’ s downline ( including their own purchases ) . Retail Commissions Retail Commissions in vStream TV are paid out via a unilevel style compensation structure , based on the retail sales activity of recruited affiliates in a downline . A unilevel compensation structure places an affiliate at the top of a unilevel team , with every personally recruited affiliate placed directly under them ( level 1 ) : In turn , if any of these level 1 affiliates go on to recruit new affiliates , they are placed on level 2 of the original affiliate ’ s unilevel team . If any level 2 affiliates go on to recruit new affiliates , they are placed on level 3 and so on and so forth down a theoretical infinite number of levels . Commissions are paid as a percentage of the retail sales activity taking place within a vStream TV affiliate ’ s unilevel team , with commissions paid out as follows : Junior Executive – 30 % on level 1 and 5 % on levels 2 and 3 Executive – 30 % on level 1 and 5 % on levels 2 to 4 Senior Executive – 30 % on level 1 and 5 % on levels 2 to 5 Regional – 30 % on level 1 , 8 % on level 2 and 5 % on levels 3 to 5 National – 30 % on level 1 , 8 % on levels 2 and 3 and 5 % on levels 4 and 5 International – 30 % on level 1 , 8 % on levels 2 to 4 and 5 % on level 5 1 Star – 30 % on level 1 and 8 % on levels 2 to 5 2 Star – 30 % on level 1 , 8 % on level 2 to 5 and 3 % on level 6 3 Star and above – 30 % on level 1 , 8 % on levels 2 to 5 and 3 % on levels 6 and 7 Note that 2 Star or higher ranked affiliates earn an additional 2 % bonus on retail sales volume generated through one generation of 2 Star affiliates . For the purpose of qualification , each unilevel leg is treated individually ( the bonus is paid until a 2 Star or higher ranked affiliate is found in that particular unilevel leg ) . Fast Start Bonus The Fast Start Bonus pays out a commission on product purchase made by recruited affiliates within their first 56 days with the company . The Fast Start Bonus is paid using the same unilevel compensation structure as outlined above in the “ retail commissions ” section of this review . Residual Commissions Residual commission in vStream TV are provided via a similar unilevel style compensation structure as used in retail commissions and the Fast Start Bonus . Residual unilevel commissions are paid out as a percentage of the sales volume generated by a vStream TV affiliate in a unilevel team . This excludes their retail sales volume , only counting their own purchases and that of their recruited downlines . How much of a commission is paid out depends on an affiliate ’ s own rank and what level of their unilevel team the affiliate generating the sales volume is placed : Junior Executive – 10 % on level 1 and 5 % on levels 2 and 3 Executive – 10 % on level 1 and 5 % on level 2 to 4 Senior Executive – 10 % on level 1 and 5 % on levels 2 to 5 Regional – 10 % on level 1 , 5 % on level 2 , 8 % on level 3 and 5 % on levels 4 to 6 National – 10 % on level 1 , 5 % on level 2 , 8 % on levels 3 and 4 and 5 % on levels 5 and 6 International – 10 % on level 1 , 5 % on level 2 , 8 % on levels 3 to 5 and 5 % on level 6 1 Star – 10 % on level 1 , 5 % on level 2 , 8 % on levels 3 to 5 , 5 % on level 6 and 7 % on level 7 2 Star – 10 % on level 1 , 5 % on level 2 , 8 % on levels 3 to 5 , 5 % on level 6 and 7 % on levels 7 and 8 3 Star to 3 Star Emerald – 10 % on level 1 , 5 % on level 2 , 8 % on levels 3 to 5 , 5 % on level 6 and 7 % on levels 7 to 9 3 Star Diamond – 10 % on level 1 , 5 % on level 2 , 8 % on levels 3 to 5 , 5 % on level 6 and 7 % on levels 7 and 8 and 8 % on level 9 Matrix Commissions Pro Member vStream TV affiliates are charged a $ 49.95 a month fee . This fee is used to pay monthly commissions via a 2 × 15 matrix compensation structure . A 2 × 15 matrix structure places an affiliate at the top of a matrix , with two positions directly under them : These initial two positions make up level 1 of the matrix , with each branching out into an additional two legs each to make up the second level of the matrix . These second level positions again branch out into two positions each to make up the third level , and so on and so forth down a total of fifteen levels . Exact commission details through the matrix are sketchy , however it appears vStream TV affiliates are paid $ 5 per position filled starting from the third level of the matrix . Additionally a 100 % Check Match bonus offered on the matrix income of personally recruited affiliates . One affiliate presentation also mentions a $ 2.25 Infinity Bonus offered on affiliates placed beyond the first fifteen levels of the matrix , however no further details are provided . Note that in order to qualify for matrix commissions , in addition to paying $ 49.95 a month , vStream TV affiliates must also personally recruit at least two affiliates . Recruitment Bonuses Billed as Rank Advancement Bonus , vStream TV pay out the following bonuses based on how many recruits are in an affiliate ’ s downline : Regional – 75 affiliates in a downline pays out $ 150 National – 150 affiliates in a downline pays out $ 300 International – 300 affiliates in a downline pays out $ 600 1 Star – 500 affiliates in a downline pays out $ 1000 2 Star – 1000 affiliates in a downline pays out $ 2000 3 Star – 2000 affiliates in a downline pays out $ 4000 3 Star Ruby – 5000 affiliates in a downline pays out $ 10,000 3 Star Emerald – 25,000 affiliates in a downline pays out $ 50,000 3 Star Diamond – 100,000 affiliates in a downline pays out $ 100,000 I believe the way these bonuses work is that the downline quota must be reached at the applicable affiliate rank ( no recruitment requirements exist for vStream TV affiliate rank promotion ) . Note that affiliates in a downline can be personally recruited or recruited by an affiliate ’ s up and downline . Joining vStream TV Basic affiliate membership with vStream TV is free , however the company also offers an unadvertised “ Pro Member ” option . Pro Membership costs $ 49.95 a month and offers affiliates “ discounts of up to $ 180 per vStream box ” purchased , access to a “ Discount Savings Club ” and various marketing tools . At the time of publication , the Pro Member option is not mentioned on the vStream TV website , nor does it appear in the company ’ s official compensation plan material . Conclusion To evaluate the retail viability of vStream TV ’ s box , I was originally going to go searching for a product comparison . By the time I finished going over their compensation plan however , I soon realized that the company pretty much destroys retail viability itself . How ? Who on Earth is going to pay $ 349 when you can pay $ 49.95 and get a discount of “ up to $ 180 ” per box ordered ? I will note that the discount appears to be based on how many boxes are ordered , but still … if you can pay $ 49.95 a month , sell a few boxes on eBay and come out cheaper than $ 349 for your own box purchase , why would you pay $ 349 retail ? Anyway , just incase there ’ s something I ’ m missing – how does vStream TV ’ s box stack up against the competition ? The product description of vStream TV ’ s box appears verbatim on an Amazon product listing for a “ StreamSmart S4 Quad Core TV Box ” . Four appear on Amazon , three listed at $ 349 and one at $ 348 . All have the same $ 4.49 shipping rate . The same product has recently appeared on eBay , selling for the same $ 349 . I ’ m guessing that these are vStream TV affiliates trying to sell units they purchased with their Pro Member discount at full retail . How long ’ s that going to last if enough people sign up as vStream TV affiliates and catch on ? StreamSmart themselves have a website over at “ streamsmartdirect . com ” . Noticeably absent are details on how to purchase the company ’ s product ( s ) . And as for legalities such as broadcast rights and licensing ? StreamSmart is a smart TV box that streams in HD with no monthly fees or contracts . The StreamSmart receiver will give you access to movies , TV shows , live sports , PPV events , live streams of network channels , and 3d movies all in HD ! ! ! The movie selection is nearly unlimited . Whether you ’ re looking for a classic like Gone with the Wind or movies that are still in the theaters , they will be there . Do you currently use a streaming service like Hulu , Netflix , or Amazon Prime ? Imagine not having to wait to get the programming you want . Streaming companies have to pay expensive distribution rights which are constantly passed on to the customer . At StreamSmart , all of the content is available immediately , if not in “ real time ” , meaning live . Tired of paying a premium for PPV events like UFC , Boxing , or WWE ? Stream them all LIVE in HIGH DEFINITION with StreamSmart ! ! ! Cancel your NFL Ticket , Red Zone Channel , NDA League PAss , and NHL Center Ice . With StreamSmart , they are all F - R - E - E and in HD ! ! ! Uh , if I did n ’ t know any better , I ’ d suggest that all that ’ s happening here is the streaming of illegal torrents via a database StreamSmart themselves maintain . Either that or there ’ s some dubious cloud - based “ restreaming ” of existing legal stream services going on here . In any event , on the legitimacy front what StreamSmart present on their website is n ’ t very convincing . Not helping is the fact that there ’ s zero information about the StreamSmart company on their website , and the company ’ s website domain registration is set to private ( registered only recently on December 10th , 2014 ) . Like it or not , distribution rights cover everything you see in the cinemas and on TV – somebody has to pay for those rights or you ’ re not watching a legal copy of the media in question . Please note that “ rage against the machine ” type comments attempting to argue for or against current media distribution systems will be marked as spam . The issue is whether or not what StreamSmart and vStream TV are offering is legit , not whether you agree or disagree with current media distribution models . Moving onto vStream TV ’ s compensation plan , the free membership appears to be a gimmick – with vStream TV presentations noting that paid affiliates can earn an “ additional 30 % ” on the sales volume of their downline . The idea seems to be to get everyone to pay $ 49.95 a month , which they make back through the matrix via the recruitment of new affiliates . The matrix component of vStream TV ’ s compensation plan by itself is a chain - recruitment model . Affiliates buy in for $ 49.95 a month and are then paid to recruit new affiliates who do the same . Through the matrix no retail activity takes place , with all revenue and commissions paid out sourced from monthly fees charged to affiliates . Even if you ignore every other aspect of the vStream TV opportunity , this alone drags the entire business opportunity over into pyramid scheme territory . Pending some major transparency efforts on vStream TV ’ s behalf , starting with company structure , management and answering the question of legality regarding the StreamSmart boxes they are reselling , I ca n ’ t see anyone taking the company too seriously . Approach with caution . Tweet | [

http://behindthestudio.com/2012/02/08/oooey-gooey-cheesy-homemade-pizza-using-jiffy-pizza-crust-mix/ | Oooey Gooey Cheesy Homemade pizza using Jiffy pizza crust mix Want to learn how to make simple , fresh homemade pizza with all the oooey gooey cheesy deliciousness pizza should have ? I try to make mine fresh rather than buy the frozen ones , and these are the steps I take to making my hot , delicious homemade pepperoni pizza and sauce recipe . First , I start with making the pizza crust according to the directions on the box . It works best when you allow extra time for the dough to rise . So fair warning – this is not a quick recipe to make , this might take you a little over an hour to prepare . I empty the contents of the package into a bowl by passing it through a pasta strainer ( or you can use a sieve – ( I just do n ’ t own one ) . This is an important step because the jiffy mix tends to clump up if you do n ’ t make it fine . This is what it should look like once it ’ s all sifted . Then I add the 1 / 2 cup of warm water that the instructions call for . I measure out filtered water in a bowl and microwave it for about 20 seconds . The water needs to feel like warm bathwater that is comfortable to the touch – If it makes you say ouch , then it ’ s probably too hot . Mix it all up until you get a sticky , pasty ball like this . You might be wondering at this point how this sticky soft bowl of goop will turn into pizza dough . Keep mixing … Add a good handful of flour and get your hands in it . Cover it , set aside and allow 20 - 30 min for it to rise . While you let the dough rise , its time to begin pre - heating the oven . I bake mine at 500F – it takes awhile for the oven to get to that temperature , so I start early . Another reason to make sure to have the oven well heated before the pizza is assembled is because the dough will get soggy if it sits with the sauce on it for too long . Incase you ’ re worried it might burn at such a high temperature , fret not … The secret to crispy , delicious pizzeria style pizza is to cook it hot and fast – like they do at the pizzeria in those giant wide ovens or wood burning ovens that are built into the wall . Now for that secret sauce … The big Secret ? Use only tomatoes labeled as “ San Marzano ” It makes a HUGE difference ! ! 1 large can can cost up to 4 or 5 $ , but it yields alot and can be frozen in containers for later use . Here ’ s the ancient Italian secret : Yummy Italian Pizza Sauce 1 can of “ SAN MARZANO ” tomatoes 1tsp salt 2 tbspn olive oil 1 / 4 tsp oregano a dash of pepper 2 fresh basil leaves Blend up the entire contents of the can in the blender or use a handheld immersion blender . Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil , 1 tsp of salt , 1 / 4 tsp of oregano , a dash of pepper and break up 2 fresh basil leaves . Mix it all up and Ta - Da ! Simple , delicious preservative free pizza sauce . I always freeze these in small containers for one time uses , so my can of expensive italian tomatoes do n ’ t go to waste ! Next , I slice the cheese – I used fresh mozzarella just to be fancy for the sake of this post , but most of the time I just use regular mozzarella cheese and I shred it myself . And I got my pepperoni ready too . . Now its time to check on that rising dough … And it seems to have puffed up nicely ! Next I prepare the pan I will cook the dough in . I use a large black pan , and trow a light dusting of cornmeal across it . Not too much , or you will have a grainy , unpleasant texture when eating it ! This helps the crust bake and become nice and crispy . Not too much more than this – just a light dusting is all you need . Now it ’ s time to shape that dough into a pizza crust . Start by throwing a small handful of all purpose flour down on your workspace and work the ball into a small dough ball . It will be sticky , so add a few small handfuls of flour as needed . Whatever you do , do not do this step in the pan where the cornmeal is . You will only press all the meal into the dough and the crust will have a grainy texture once cooked . After you shaped the dough it into a more solid small dough ball , start off by pressing in the middle with your fingers and pushing outwards to shape it into a pizza crust . Be careful not to make holes , and try to be as even as possible all around . Now we are at the tricky part ! Once you are done shaping it as thin as you can without making holes , you must quickly get it over to the cooking pan . I say quickly because the longer you hold the dough in your hands , it will tear and make giant gaping holes . Get your hand under the crust by flipping one side over and then back again . It ’ s always best to make a fist or use the sides of your forearms as opposed to your fingers for picking up uncooked dough . Whew . I managed to get it over without any holes . The hard part is done ! Cover and let it rise again for 5 minutes . This is the secret to a flakier crust . Now it ’ s time to assemble with your favorite toppings ! * * IMPORTANT * * Be sure that your oven is fully pre - heated at 500F BEFORE you start assembling the pizza , because the longer the sauce sits on the raw dough , it will make it soggy . Now pop it in the oven at 500F for about 8 min . Watch closely ! See JP ’ s reflection ? He was so excited to get to make pizza with his mama ! After 8 minutes , pull it out . The cheese on top may be a little white still , so It ’ s time to broil it . Switch your oven over to broil and pop it back under there Before the broil : After the broil : Ahh . That ’ s more like it ! Let it cool for 2 minutes and drizzle a little olive oil over the top . . Now relax and enjoy … YUM ! ! ! No complaints ! Quick tip : If you make a mess on your glass cooktop , have a look at my diy home made cleaning method on how to clean a glass top stove using baking soda .

With a facility in place , Raycom Sports began exploring possible options for collegiate events to be held in Charlotte .

On December 8 , 2002 , Virginia and West Virginia officially accepted invitations to play in the inaugural game , pitting the No . 2 team from the ACC against the No . 2 team from the Big East . Less than one week later , the game was completely sold out and it ’ s believed to be the fastest sellout of a first - year bowl game in history . A crowd of 73,535 packed Bank of America Stadium on December 28 , 2002 . For the next three years , the game would be known as the Continental Tire Bowl . 2005 In 2005 , the game began a six - year run as the Meineke Car Care Bowl . 2011 Since 2011 , Charlotte - based department store chain Belk has been the proud title sponsor of the game . 2010 The Charlotte Sports Foundation was formed and took over managing the Belk Bowl . 2014 The Belk Bowl delighted college football fans around the country when it signed a six - year partnership beginning in 2014 with the Southeastern Conference . Now fans look forward to seeing the ACC and the SEC battle it out in Charlotte annually at the end of December .
