Maybe. You need to figure out which .38 your Colt is chambered in. .38 Short Colt and .38 Long Colt guns will not chamber a .38 Special. .38 Colt Special is the same as regular .38 Special. If you cannot tell which caliber it is you need to take it to a gunsmith and have him tell you.
No. .38 Long Colt was the forerunner to .38 Special- and was originally a black powder cartridge. The .38 Special is more powerful- the .357 magnum is MUCH more powerful. Neither the Special nor the magnum should be fired in a gun chambered for .38 Long Colt. This is VERY dangerous.

The Bowflex Weight Bench Series, a fitness tool with a space-saving design, load capacity of 600 pounds, six different adjustment angles, and the provision of seat adjustment for workout versatility and comfort, stands as an admirable contender in the market of home gym equipment.
Varying dimensions add to its appeal, with use dimensions being 61.3″ L x 28.1″ W x 49.5″ H and stowed dimensions at a compact 23.9″ L x 28.1″ W x 52.3″ H.
This comprehensive review delves into the bench’s design, functionality, flexibility, and durability, examining not only its multiple assets, but also areas that fared below user expectationsPreliminary analysis portrays the Bowflex weight bench as a sturdy, simple-to-assemble piece featuring admirable space efficiency, making it laudable for those conscious of spatial constraints.
However, despite its robust structure and high-quality material, areas needing further improvements have been identified.
These include minor finish issues, the gap between the seat and backrest, and the scope of adjustment features.
Understandably, user perceptions on these matters show diversity, depending on individual body dimensions and workout preferencesIn the following sections, we will conduct a detailed sentiment analysis, compare Bowflex with its competitors, draw a price and rating comparison alongside their histories, and shed light on the bench’s methodology as well as the methodology of the review itself.

Bowflex Weight Bench Series Review
Let’s have an in-depth look at the Bowflex Weight Bench Series!
- Compact design with 6 adjustable angles for versatility.
- Seat adjustment for optimal comfort and exercise options.
- Can withstand up to 600-pound load.
- Dimensions: 61.3″ L x 28.1″ W x 49.5″ H.
- Stowed Dimensions: 23.9″ L x 28.1″ W x 52.3″ H.
Below you can find the most frequently returning topics that were discovered in the audit of the Bowflex Weight Bench Series:
- Sturdy and well-made construction.
- Easy assembly with all needed tools included.
- Adjustable with multiple incline options ideal for versatile workouts.
- Compact and space-saving – can be stored upright.
- Comfortable seat padding and quality material.
- Significant gap between the backrest and seat, which some users may find uncomfortable.
- Potential long-term wear and tear issues due to seat flexibility.
- Minor fit and finish issues like visible oxidation.
- Limited adjustability compared to some other models.
- Small wheels make it difficult to move around.
The Bowflex Weight Bench Series is commonly observed as a sturdy, well-built piece of fitness equipment optimally suitable for home gym settings.
Its heavy-duty frame is reliable and can comfortably handle the recommended maximum weight of 600 pounds.
However, it should be noted that individuals of different body dimensions could perceive its comfort level differently – largely due to the ample gap between its backrest and seat.
The bench is reported to be quite easy to assemble, taking about 30 minutes, with all necessary tools included.
This efficiency speaks positively not only about its packaging but also user convenience.
Nevertheless, some users noted slight fit and finish issues with components showing visible oxidation which, though not impacting its functionality, does affect the product’s aesthetics.
In terms of space requirement, this weight bench provides good flexibility.
It offers a small footprint when stowed, reducing its spatial demand to about one-third of its full size.
This feature is an advantage for those with spatial constraints.
Nevertheless, its size may pose a slight inconvenience when steering it through a standard 30″ doorway.
The bench showcases versatility with multiple position options, ranging from flat, inclined, to fully declined.
The seat adjustment mechanism is simple and straightforward, contributing towards comfortable workouts.
Yet, some users expressed a desire for a wider range of adjustment features, such as an 80-degree angle for upright presses or minor inclines and declines.
The Bowflex Weight Bench Series presents a considerable asset in terms of upholstery quality, durability, and overall appearance.
The seat cushion exhibits a certain degree of flexibility and comfort, although there are concerns about potential long-term wear and tear.
The ankle holders, made of foam, provide decent support and appear durable, though their long-term resilience remains to be confirmed with time.
Although the bench features adjustable feet which can compensate for uneven floor surfaces, some users find the gap between the backrest and seat slightly uncomfortable.
This 4″ gap, which can reduce to 2″ in certain positions, might feel uncomfortable to some users, particularly those of shorter stature.
The product’s mobility is somewhat compromised by its small, under-framed wheels which might hinder smooth transportation.
Despite that, the Bowflex Weight Bench is deemed relatively light, easy to maneuver, and store, thus making optimal use of available home gym space.
In summary, The Bowflex Weight Bench Series brings to the market a generally well-regarded, versatile, and durable option for in-home fitness enthusiasts.
Its robust structure, reasonable assembly ease, space-efficient design, high-quality materials, and multiplicity of positioning options underscore its advantages.
However, the fairly wide gap between the seat and backrest, minor quality control issues, and the lack of certain angle adjustments are aspects that would benefit from improvements.
It can be inferred that individuals requiring a more tailored product or those seeking to conduct heavy weight barbell workouts may need to research alternative options.
The results of the sentiment analysis show that the Bowflex Weight Bench Series scores below average in terms of sentiment when comparing it to other products in its category.
This means that in general, users were (relatively) less positive when speaking about the Bowflex Weight Bench Series.

Introducing our team of freaks at HIVE, getting to know CollabChan better
Hello everyone, first of all I already participated a while ago on hive.blog creating art and photography content, but I ended up losing my private passwords although hive was priced close to $2 dollars I didn't lose that much, something around $97 dollars in current quote, not only that, but my Metamask which contained smaller projects no more than $200 dollars.
A reminder that I will take with me for life now is: don't trust passwords written in your notebook's notebook, if it's important go up to some damn cloud server like Google Drive.
Returning to the topic of the topic, this was kind of meant to be an introduction / presentation but after researching some example posts, I realized that most of you use your image with a little sign written "Hive and Data" but I want to point out that collab-chan is more than a user account, you will understand better below.
But what is CollabChan?
The term Collab comes from the word collaboration and chan refers to a former member may he rest in peace, we pulled up to a forum called 4chan where it looked like lawless land, lots of random and bizarre content lol.
Nothing more than a collaboration of graphic artists and soundclound artist in the most varied categories: pixel art, hand drawing, digital drawing, voxel, beat maker, sound engineer and whatever else I can fit into a single canvas, you can see one of these works on my profile as a cover.
It doesn't just come down to that, but the whole collective and open idea of adding something to add to the entertainment, we've already created some indie games but mostly it's something just for distraction and then some inappropriate things come out in the open, although it's nothing that ridiculous.
We are more than 10 members, but only a few friends are participating with me in this blog/content creation:
Some of the members' work
I tried to create another account for josefino to post his sound quality on his soundclound, but we couldn't through hiveonboarding that started to give some errors, and he didn't want to pay the $3 dollars to create an account, unfortunate breadwinner.
So when you have something related to music, you can be sure that you are the master on the account.


Earlier today, some media reported that Samsung’s US factory had stopped production for one month and that the Note series might be suspended this year. The Yonhap News Agency said that Samsung did not cancel the Note series products.
SamMobile quoted the joint CEO of Samsung’s mobile division to confirm that Samsung will indeed not have a new Galaxy Note flagship model in 2021, but Samsung has not cancelled the series. It hopes fans will maintain their belief that the new Samsung Galaxy Note will be launched in 2022. , Will ensure that Galaxy Note users will not be disappointed.
Although the future of the Samsung Galaxy Note series is still uncertain, it seems that Samsung’s decision to add S Pen support to the Galaxy S series and to have the Galaxy Z Fold series as its flagship in the second half of the year is a matter of course. Of course, according to the current news, Galaxy Z Fold 3 will also support S Pen.
Samsung’s products to be released this year: the new Galaxy A series will be released in the second quarter, today the new A-series mid-range models will be launched; the Galaxy Z Flip 2 will be launched in the third quarter And Galaxy Z Fold 3 and the new Wear OS smartwatch, and Galaxy S21 FE will be launched in the fourth quarter.


text: An example of bacterium, which undergoes a complex development, is the genus of Streptomyces whose importance lies in their wide capacity to produce secondary metabolites, including antibiotics. In this work, a proteomic approach was applied to the systems study of germination as a transition from dormancy to the metabolically active stage. The protein expression levels were examined throughout the germination time course, the kinetics of the accumulated and newly synthesized proteins were clustered, and proteins detected in each group were identified. Altogether, 104 2DE gel images at 13 time points, from dormant state until 5.5 h of growth, were analyzed. The mass spectrometry identified proteins were separated into functional groups and their potential roles during germination were further assessed. The results showed that the full competence of spores to effectively undergo active metabolism is derived from the sporulation step, which facilitates the rapid initiation of global protein expression during the first 10 min of cultivation. Within the first hour, the majority of proteins were synthesized. From this stage, the full capability of regulatory mechanisms to respond to environmental cues is presumed. The obtained results might also provide a data source for further investigations of the process of germination.

Watch This Husky Conquer His Fear of Hula Hoops
We all have our fears, whether it’s heights, spiders, or (shudder) clowns. They don’t necessary have to make logical sense, in fact, they rarely do. Even Max the Siberian Husky has his irrational fears…like hula hoops, for instance. We’re not sure why, but Max is terrified of hula hoops and refuses to walk through them. So Max’s owners worked hard to try and help their husky overcome his bizarre fear of the great and powerful hula hoop! Watch the video below to see what happens.
Getting Max over his fear is not as easy as we thought it would be. It takes several tries to get Max to finally walk through a doorway with a hula hoop in it, but eventually makes it through.
The boys try going through the hoop themselves (even on all fours) to show Max it’s safe to pass through the hoop. They try calling him to the other side and tempting him with treats, but nothing seems to be working.
It takes a lot of coaxing and demonstrating, but finally, Max makes it through the hula hoop! Go Max!
Some inspiration to help you conquer YOUR irrational fears today. You’re going down, clowns.

Taytay Boni, Miagao
Taytay Boni, is a stone bridge built in 1854. Taytay Boni lies just off the Miagao – Guimbal road on the junction to Bgy.Guibongan. It took its name from the Illongo word, Taytay, meaning bridge and Boni taken from the name of its Spanish construction foreman Bonifacio Neular.
Taytay Boni was built using large yellow coral stone slabs called tablea , which came from the mountains of Igbaras. They were transported the 6 km there using filipino forced labour on bamboo sleds pulled by carabao. The blocks were held together using lime.
It is a small narrow bridge and originally only meant to be used by horse drawn carriages. The bridge was still passable before and after the Second World War and was partly damaged during an earthquake in 1948. The creek it crossed has disappeared since then.
The route of the old Spanish road can be seen disappearing into distance at the end of the bridge, across fields of green.
Although in a state of disrepair it is still worth stopping and taking a look at some Spanish era history. If you visit on a rainy day like i did, then there is a shelter on the junction near the main road where you can sort of keep dry.
Once you finish looking at the bridge you can make a side trip and continue down the road to Guibongan and visit the Budbud – traditional Miag-ao Salt farms that are found on the beach there. If you are walking it is an easy 15 minute stroll.
Getting to Taytay Boni
From Miagao – Take any tricycle beside the Cultural Hall. Ask the driver to take you to Taytay Boni or junction to Brgy.Guibongan which is really the same thing.
You could also take a jeepney or bus going to Iloilo and ask to be dropped off at Taytay Boni or junction to Brgy.Guibongan

Texas has taken center stage in national politics. But that has rarely happened, rare enough that many voters aren't exactly sure what they should be doing when the primary election takes place Tuesday.
Potter County voting
(2004) - 55,936 registered voters
373 - Democrat early voting
1,101 - Democrat election day voting
2,136 - Republican early voting
6,460 - Republican election day voting
(2008) - 53,681 registered voters
1,719 - Democrat early voting (as of Thursday)
2,299 - Republican early voting (as of Thursday)
Randall County voting
477 - Democrat early voting
720 - Democrat election day voting
5,791 - Republican early voting
10,490 - Republican election day voting
3,025 - Democrat early voting
4,456 - Republicans early voting
And the hotly contested race between Sens. Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama for the Democratic nomination has brought out a new wave of voters and some say is causing Republicans to cross party lines.
Republicans have it easier. Republican voters, about 6,700 of whom are in Potter and Randall counties, have voted Republican in early voting as of Thursday night.
Potter County Republican Chairman Tom Roller said Republican voters just cast their ballot and its complete.
"There is no caucus. There really is no voting twice," Roller said. "We have precinct meetings on the Republican side, but it's not to select a candidate."
Precinct conventions, which send delegates to the county convention, then onto the senatorial convention and finally the state convention, are the early steps in sending resolutions onto the state and national convention for party platform issues.
The conventions take place at the polling location and start at 7:30 p.m.
Democrats have a system where a caucus takes place at precinct conventions, which start at 7:15 p.m. at polling places.
"This idea you can vote twice, while it's true, it's a misnomer," said Dave Rausch, associate professor of political science at West Texas A & M University.
Democrats who vote in the primary and show up at precinct conventions will eventually influence the 42 delegates that are selected at-large at the state convention, said Jim Otto, Randall County Democratic chairman.
And while Texas has 228 delegates up for grabs for Clinton or Obama, 126 of those are pledged delegates, which will reflect voting results from the primary.
"If Obama gets 55 percent (of the vote) and Clinton gets 45 percent, the ratio of the 126 (delegates) has to match the ratio that's voted for in the primary," Otto said.
Additionally, there are 35 delegates who are "super delegates," or unpledged delegates, and there are almost 30 more delegates who are party leaders and will vote how they choose.
But from this area, which is part of Senate District 31, there will be delegates who will head to the national convention.
"We expect a high turnout at the precinct conventions based on the turnout we are seeing on early voting," Otto said.
Early voting numbers are drastically different when compared to the 2004 primary.
More than 3,000 people in Randall County have voted Democrat, which far surpasses the 1,100 who voted both early and on election day in the 2004 primary. Potter County has also seen an increase in Democratic voters.
This large increase could be "party raiding."
Rausch said some Republicans could assume John McCain, the presumed GOP presidential nominee, has the Republican nomination already locked in; instead of voting in the Republican primary, they might vote in the Democratic primary for a candidate they believe will lose in the general election.
Rausch said the increase could also be attributed to newly registered voters or the "Obama momentum." The Illinois senator has won 11 primaries since Super Tuesday.
"It's always possible Democrats voted Republican in 2004. Those folks may be coming back now," Rausch said.

Coral Beauty Angelfish - Centropyge bispinosa
Updated August 4, 2019
Author: Mike - FishLore Admin
The Coral Beauty Angelfish (Centropyge bispinosa) is a dwarf marine angelfish that only reaches about 4 inches (10 cm). The Coral Beauty is commonly available and is relatively inexpensive when compared to other saltwater fish. They can be fairly hardy and are known as one of the hardiest of the dwarf angels.
The Coral Beauty is usually fairly peaceful but can be belligerent with tank mates. Unless you have a very large tank, they will fight with other dwarf angels over territory. They may also be aggressive with smaller tank mates (fish and invertebrates) if kept in a smaller tank. Provide them with lots of live rock for hiding places and they may spend most of their time out in the open.
Feeding the Coral Beauty Angelfish can be difficult and it's usually hit or miss with this species. Some hobbyists have no problems getting them to eat flake and frozen foods whereas others report that they can't get them to eat standard aquarium foods. Either way, having a good amount of live rock in your tank will provide them with not only places for hiding but it will also give them a food source. They primarily eat algae and will graze on the algae growing on your live rock. For those reef aquarium keepers out there, this fish may not be the best choice for your reef tank. They have been known to nip at lps corals. If you're worried that they are not getting enough to eat, get some dried marine seaweed and use a veggie clip to place it in the tank. There are special marine angelfish foods out there as well and you may want to try them.
These dwarf angelfish can come down with the usual saltwater fish diseases and using a quarantine tank is a must. Keep them in quarantine for 2 - 3 weeks before introducing them into your main tank.
Coral Beauty Angelfish Care
Scientific Name : Centropyge bispinosa
Common Names : Two Spined Angelfish, Dusky Angelfish
Care Level : Moderate
Size : Up to 4 inches (10 cm)
Life span : 10 - 15 years or longer in the wild, but not likely in captivity
pH : 8.1 - 8.4
Temperature : 72°F - 80°F (22°C - 27°C)
Specific Gravity : 1.020 - 1.025
Carbonate Hardness (dKH) : 8 - 12°
Origin / Habitat : Günther, 1860 - Indo-Pacific, Great Barrier Reef
Temperament / Behavior : They can be aggressive with others, especially other dwarf marine angelfishes. It's not the best choice for a reef tank because they are known to nip lps corals.
Breeding : Very difficult to breed in captivity.
Aquarium Size : 30 gallon (113 liters) minimum, preferably larger - tanks on the smaller side will surely bring out territory problems with other fish.
Tank Mates : Use caution when selecting tank mates. You may have better results if this is the last fish placed in the tank. You may still see some aggression with other fish that are the same size or smaller. These fish are not necessarily reef aquarium safe because they will nip lps corals and may pick on smaller invertebrates.
Reef Tank Compatible? : Use caution if you have clams since it has been reported that they may nip at them. Otherwise, they could be a nice addition to help with algae control in a small way.
Fish Disease : Saltwater Fish Disease - Diagnose, Symptoms and Treatment
Diet / Foods : Frequent (2 times per day) and varied feedings. Try to give them a variety of marine foods but predominantly marine algae and spirulina. Having plenty of live rock for them to graze on goes a long way. They may accept vitamin enriched flake foods, frozen and definitely live foods although it may take time for them to go after flake foods.
Tank Region : Usually middle to bottom
Gender : No reliable way to determine the differences between males and females.

Coral Beauty Angelfish Tips
The Coral Beauty is one of the easier dwarf angelfishes to care for... I had mine for several years until it decided to jump out of the tank. I wasn't home when it happened and found it dried out on the floor in front of the tank. Mine generated lots of peaceful activity in the tank and didn't bother any of the other fish. He was friends with the Yellow Tang and they swam frequently together. Mine was not picky about foods and would eat everything we offered - ocean nutrition flakes, frozen brine shrimp, frozen marine cuisine, etc. I will be getting a replacement very soon.
I've bred my coral beauties in captivity and I am having a hard time just getting the larvae. I get about 100 eggs a night over 3 nights, then a break for a night or two as the female generates another batch. Anybody have any info in rearing Angel babies?
|There doesn't seem to be much information available online, but you can get some ideas by reading through some breeder reports at the breeder's registry under Centropyge.|
I've had my Coral Beauty for about a month or so now. At first, he was extremely scared and hid behind the live rock. But, after about a week, he came out more. Now whenever someone comes into my room, he comes out to see who came in, then flips his tail and swims from one end of the tank to the other. He has a great personality. He doesn't bother any of my mushroom corals and he is extremely easy to care for.
|From: Holly Caldwell|
I just got my beautiful coral beauty and so far she is very peaceful and even swims with my 3 stripe damsels. She won't take the spirulina tablets I stick to the aquarium wall and just picks at the algae growing on the glass and ignores the nice green algae on my live rock. I am praying this is just because she is settling in. What a gorgeous fish she is!
|They may go after flakes too. It's worth trying herbivore flakes or flake foods with lots of greens in them. It may take a few days for them to feel comfortable and they should be out and about. Damsels can get aggressive though, so monitor closely.|
More Dwarf Saltwater Angelfish Profiles
One of the most popular but not necessarily one of the easiest of the dwarf angels to keep. They usually come in with saltwater ich or very shortly show signs of it. Ask to see them eat and let the store keep them for a few weeks before spending the $40 plus on this fish. An amazing looking saltwater angelfish though.
Gets to about 5 inches when fully grown but is not necessarily one of the hardier of the dwarf angel species.
Will get to be around 4 inches when grown and needs to be acclimated slowly. Endemic to the Hawaiin Islands.
This angelfish isn't usually lumped in with the dwarves and it's sometimes referred to as a Pygmy Angelfish because it only gets to be about 3 inches (8 cm) in size. A very cool little saltwater tropical fish that can be kept in 20 - 30 gallon (113 liters) tanks.

While some are calling Japan’s nuclear nightmare a wake-up call for the United States, Energy Secretary Steven Chu says that reactors in the United States are safe — though lessons from the disaster in Japan will help strengthen America’s nuclear industry.
“The American people should have full confidence that the United States has rigorous safety regulations in place to ensure that our nuclear power is generated safely and responsibly," Chu told the House of Representatives Appropriations Subcommittee on Energy and Water Development during a hearing on the Obama administration's fiscal 2012 budget request, adding that information about the events unfolding in Japan was still coming in, but the administration is committed to learning from Japan' s experience as it works to continue to strengthen America's nuclear industry.
"We need to take a hard look at any lesson learned from this tragedy that can further improve the safety of our reactors," Chu said.

I really do. I enjoy the atmosphere of it, the time with family and friends, and…oh yeah, being a good capitalist, I enjoy the sales aspect of it. What I’m trying to say is I’ve been very fortunate on Amazon this year, both selling and buying. While my sales have skyrocketed, I’ve found great deals on sets like 1991 O-Pee-Chee Premier, sets that may not show up on eBay, and if they do, go for a lot more than a 1991 vintage set should go for. I received my 1991 Stadium Club and Fleer update sets on Friday, the OPC set is waiting for me in my PO Box, and the Leaf set has shipped. That leaves 1991 Bowman as the last link in the 1991 Project. After that…I think I might take a break, as the 1992 project is going to damn near kill me financially, between the Fleer Update set and the Bowman set. Not to mention I’m lagging quite a bit behind on the site, so I have some time. It’s been very fun so far, though, and I’ve learned a lot about hobby trends from that era. That’s why a part of me wants to proceed onwards, to see how things continue to morph and change.
Going to be reordering the 1989 project again just a tad. I’ve been so busy at home with other projects (mostly the Amazon sales) that I haven’t had time to do proper scanning, so there are some gaps in the later teams. Rather than put the whole project on hold, I figured I’d reorder things and plow ahead.
Bryce Harper’s doing pretty well in the AFL; color me surprised. Not that I wish the guy to fail or think he will, but it seemed like an 18-year-old, coming to a completely new league with some stiffer competition after no time in the minors and playing with wood bats for the first time, might struggle a *tad*. But he’s hitting (.323/.400/.613) with 2 doubles, 2 triples, 1 HR, 6 RBI’s, 4 walks, 10 K’s and 1 stolen base. That’s an awful lot of K’s, but like I said, total adjustment, so I’m not worried yet. I’m actually quite a bit more excited for him than Strasburg, even if he’s a frontrunner who hasn’t developed a filter for his PR stuff yet.
And now let’s see what other folks said this weekend…
- Waxaholic alerted us to a bunch of new card blogs. You can bet you’ll see them here soon!
- Sports Card Info showed us images of 2011 ITG baseball.
- 30-Year-Old Cardboard continued his march to completing the 2008 Baseball Heroes rainbow of Ernie Banks. Pretty cool, and I can relate with my Zimmerman collection!
- Voice of the Collector is bored to tears with the hobby. I feel your pain!
- The Great Orioles Autograph project updated with another unpossible autograph: Valmy Thomas.
- Night Owl has the rack pack blahs.
- Sewingmachineguy looked at 1999 Stadium Club, a cool little set.
- Smed showed us Roy Lee Jackson’s 1987 Topps. Cool card. And that’s definitely airbrushed.

WASHINGTON, July 11, 2008 On July 9, the Defense Security Cooperation Agency notified Congress of a possible Foreign Military Sale to Finland of 300 AIM-120C-7 Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missiles (AMRAAM), and associated equipment and services. The total value, if all options are exercised, could be as high as $435 million.
The Government of Finland has requested a possible sale of 300 AIM-120C-7 AMRAAM, missile containers, spare and repair parts, support and test equipment, publications and technical documentation, personnel training and training equipment, U.S. Government and contractor engineering, technical and logistics support services, and other related elements of logistical and program support. The estimated cost is $435 million.
This proposed sale will contribute to the foreign policy and national security of the United States by helping to improve the security of a friendly country that has been and continues to be an important force for political stability and economic progress in Europe.
Finland intends to use the AMRAAM missiles on its existing fleet of F/A-18C/D aircraft. The sale of AMRAAM missiles gives Finland credible territorial defense capability by increasing its sustainment capability during defensive operations, and extending the overall lifespan of its missile inventory. Finland, which already has AMRAAM missiles in its inventory, will have no difficulty absorbing these items.
The prime contractor will be Raytheon Electronic and Missile Systems of Tucson, Arizona. Offset agreements associated with this proposed sale are expected, but at this time the specific offset agreements are undetermined and will be defined in negotiations between the purchaser and contractor.
Implementation of this sale will not require the assignment of any additional U. S. Government personnel in-country.
There will be no adverse impact on U.S. defense readiness as a result of this proposed sale.

Are you tired of boring, generic floor mats that don’t match your unique style? Customized floor mats are the perfect solution! Not only do they add a personal touch to your vehicle or home, but they also provide protection against dirt and wear.
However, just like any other type of mat, customized floor mats require regular cleaning and maintenance to ensure longevity. In this blog post, we’ll share some tips on how to properly clean and care for your customized floor mats so you can enjoy them for years to come.
Why You Should Customize Your Floor Mats
Customized floor mats are a great way to add personality and style to your vehicle or home. With so many options available, you can choose colors, patterns, logos, and even create custom designs that reflect your unique taste. But aside from aesthetics, there are other reasons why you should consider customized floor mats.
Firstly, customized floor mats offer better protection against dirt and wear compared to generic ones. You can choose materials that are durable and easy to clean such as vinyl or rubber with textured surfaces for added grip.
Secondly, customized floor mats provide better coverage of the flooring in high-traffic areas like the driver’s seat or entryway. This helps prevent damage from spills, mud or snow during wet seasons or when outdoor activities increase.
Having personalized floor mats is an excellent way to show off team spirit or promote brand awareness if used for businesses. Along with being practical additions to any space they also have aesthetic values which adds value overall.
How to Clean and Maintain Your Customized Floor Mats
Customized floor mats are a great way to add personality and protection to your vehicle. However, like any other car accessory, they require proper care and maintenance to ensure longevity and functionality.
To clean your customized floor mats, start by removing them from the vehicle and giving them a good shake or vacuuming to remove loose dirt and debris. Then use a mild detergent or carpet cleaner specifically designed for car interiors with warm water to scrub away any stains or grime. Avoid using harsh chemicals or bleach that can damage the mat’s material.
After cleaning, rinse the mats thoroughly with water until all soap residues are gone. Use a towel to dry them completely before placing them back on their designated spots in the car.
It’s also essential to maintain your customized floor mats regularly by wiping off any spills as soon as possible and avoiding dragging heavy objects on top of them that could cause scratches or tears. Additionally, rotate your mats every few months so that they wear evenly.
Types of Customized Floor Mats
When it comes to customized floor mats, there are several types available in the market. One of the most popular types is logo mats which feature a company logo or design. These mats can be used both indoors and outdoors, and they come in various materials such as carpet, rubber, and vinyl.
Another type of customized floor mat is personalized photo mats that allow you to print your favorite photos on them. They add a personal touch to any space and are perfect for homes or offices.
For those who live in areas with harsh weather conditions, all-weather floor mats are an ideal choice. Made from heavy-duty materials like rubber or PVC, these mats provide excellent protection against dirt, mud, rainwater and snow.
Anti-fatigue custom floor mats offer comfort and safety benefits by reducing foot fatigue caused by standing for long periods of time. They have cushioning properties that promote blood circulation while preventing slips and falls at the same time.
Choosing the right type of customized floor mat requires careful consideration based on your specific needs and preferences. Whatever type you choose make sure it’s durable enough for everyday use so it can last longer than usual floor mats.
Customized floor mats are a great way to add a personal touch to your vehicle while also providing protection against dirt and debris. However, it is important to remember that these mats require regular cleaning and maintenance in order to extend their lifespan.
By following the tips outlined in this article, you’ll be able to keep your customized floor mats looking like new for years to come. Whether you opt for carpeted or rubberized mats, make sure to choose high-quality materials that can withstand heavy use.
Investing in customized floor mats not only adds style but functionality as well. With proper care and attention, they can provide long-lasting protection for your vehicle’s interior while reflecting your unique personality and taste.


Paraquat: A controversial chemical's second act
(This story accompanies a Special Report: "Why Brazil has a big appetite for banned pesticides")
By Paulo Prada
April 2 (Reuters) - One of the oldest and most widely used pesticides in the world is also one of the most toxic and controversial.
Paraquat, a herbicide used to control weeds since the 1950s, was banned in the European Union in 2007. It is restricted for use only by licensed technicians in the United States and, since 2012, many of its formulations in China are being phased out.
Known for its toxicity to vital organs, including the liver, kidneys, heart and respiratory system, it is deadly if ingested and has long been criticized by public health experts. They say farm workers, especially in less educated and less regulated markets, are at risk if they use the chemical improperly.
"It's terribly toxic," says Mark Davis, senior officer for pesticide management at the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. "Once it is in your body there is no antidote."

The ‘Tathastu’ director Shabir Shrestha celebrated his birthday at the sets of the movie. The movie currently on floor features actress Rekha Thapa in lead role. The lead actors Kishor Khatiwada, Subash Thapa, Rekha Thapa, director Samjhana Upreti Rauniar and journalists were present at the celebration.
Shabir Shrestha debuted as a director in Rekha Film’s movie ‘Hamesha‘. The success of his first movie established him as a successful director. Rekha’s another movie ‘Kali‘ further reinforced him as a good director. In the mean time, he also directed ‘Ishara‘ and ‘Aadhi Bato’ (released earlier this year).
Shabir and Rekha are considered good friends and Rekha calls him ‘dai’ (a big brother). Rekha who had recently told that she won’t be doing any movie out of her home production, had agreed to do Shabir’s home production ‘Tathastu’. ‘Tathastu’ shooting had started last week.

‘Fire and shadows cross a sky—Color moon of blood and gold—Simple songs and thudding drum—Stars light up another home—We move by wind across this place—In sunlight waves and dancing twists—Of silver rain and stretching space—Ship’s gentle streaks in skies of grace—With muted voice and silent rooms of—Blood touched throat and emptied tombs—Bridge walked toward and skylight’s scream—By taking flight and falling dream—Warming suns of days ago—With salted mist and taste of tongue—Lights of passion—times of rain—Wolf cries shout of sands and home—Across this universal stretch—Window shine in candle’s light—And let us touch another peace—Of safety sleep and lover’s reach.’
The death of ‘middle warders’ on surfaces—are many and rarely varied. Renewal—of hidden—memories and power—in times of—sorrow—danger—and fear must—prevail. Wealth—again moves—poverty descends—from above—as sunlight firms—and from—this ground—levels of those—dwellers and their children. Life—ends—as—life—begins. Life—also creates-stop-start—inside—thousand world reach—where liquid—spins and evaporates.
Across time—lighted atmosphere—with spaces—absent of everything—save—views above and across the—angled galaxy—war of rearranged-arrangements begin—and—still end—in victorious—losses. Some obtain—more-of-less while some—lose everything to—other dwellers above—these spaces—or below this ground—stretched places—caves and cave-ins—where life hides from death—and—waits the end—of silent-lightning and the reaches-of-teaches—flash.
Once again—against—these skies—spinning whirls—of land and seas—of salt and lakes of salt—less spree—warriors stage—wars of rearranged-arrangements—act and actions—where—wealth distributes—to winner’s joy—and to—losers—sorrow. The dead—discarded beneath soiled blood—inside rocky notions—victories of death and legend. Forgotten—are response to—battle—and the rhymes that end—in hunger and rearranged—arrangements.
For these are—short days of peace—remember pleasant moments—above ground splendor—and days-of-nights and nights-of-days—as knights begin—an—uncertain dance of—daze. Swords-shields—never rust and the lightning—of solar dust—gather in place—of suns—along a galactic twirl of swirling—world—filled brim high—with the salted seas—as—breaking winter waves—on shorelines’ length—a billion lakes—without salt—yet—filled with many lights—of star sparkle and life.
Do the religious—measure by rank and legend—higher than reason and world happiness—also become—the first practitioners of—Totalitarianism?—When—reason is rejected—as faith demands and self-interest becomes self-sacrifice—then—give up reason for—thought control—genocide and starvation—why? An infallible ruler—a declination of life expectancy-life-spans-hopes-dreams—and the elimination of unapproved thought by a church and the inquisition—fancy living—or maybe—be—‘never-‘evers’? ‘Nearer my Gods-to-Z’s.’
These are—days of women—of men—and—of children. Days of—reaffirmation and survival’s rearranged—arrangements and—of offerings. They are—creations of ways—of means—of love-hate—and care—in heart shape—reasons and certainly—uncertainty. The times—of these creations—are tiny—moments before—another war and death songs—are always—gentle moments—just after those last days—battled—when reasons are few—and responses—always necessary. Always! Rearranged—arrangements? Blood feeds form—and those forms cease—flesh without it?
Peace—happening-happens—future-present and learned from past touches—brushes—painted blood—flood of regrets—endless wars—sorrow worship—dead—dying all the time—without rhythm—without rhyme…Still reach-teach—beached and—still. Woman—Man! We stand—equally on this—hilltop rise—same battles to fight—same hungers—same pleading—needs—together…And Warrior—She! —We need—most—because without—we do not exist…Remember?
And! Beautiful you are…

There was a myth that if you stand on the rocks they will tell you who your true love is. But the thing about this myth was that it was true. The rocks would tell you who your true love was and break thousands of relationships and friendships- that was the power of the rocks. But one day on those very rocks stood a boy. A ginger, a nerd and that boy was called Sheen.
The story and drama that circled Sheen was things that should never be spoken or written. It was a swirling story of love, betrayal, death, heartbreak and everything in between. The stories of Sheen are those to marvel at, but not this story. This story is the ending, but it is also the beginning. This story is all you ever need to know. This story is of how stones broke the heartless girl's heart.
We had been dating for nearly two years. We were perfect for each other and everyone said so, everyone but the one that matter the most to him, everyone but her- his best friend. She was the girl that loved him like I did, the girl that I ruined; Jenny. We had dated in secret for most of those two years but I saw the way she looked at me. She knew she saw the secret glances. She saw the way his eyes brightened when he saw me.
But I saw it too. I saw his eyes grow dark when we fought, or when she left. I heard his voice fill with so much love every time he thought about her. And every time I heard it, I'd hate her more. But none of that matters now. She's gone. She was killed in the last invasion. He was so torn and heartbroken it made me feel bad. His broken heart nearly made me cry.
But I can't, not anymore. My tears are gone- dried up, useless, never really had a purpose. That was years ago and now we're happy, well were happy. But then he asked the question. Why don't you want to stand on the rocks? I looked at he and lied said I didn't need rocks to tell me we're soul mates. But I knew the truth. I was afraid because I knew I wasn't his soul mate. She was long gone. I was merely a backup.
My words did nothing to detain him and he climbed to the top of the rocks. A smile on his face as stood at the top looking down at me. Suddenly wind blew through the clearing. Sheen raised his arms out to either side of him -the smile no longer on his face- like when Christ was nailed to the cross. Dark clouds swiftly moved through the sky. Lightning flashed as Sheen threw his head back and scream.
At first I thought it was just a scream, but then I realized it was her name. He was calling for her, for Jenny. The stones underneath his feet suddenly flashed to life and I stared in horror at the word I never wanted to see again. Jenny.
Tears build in my eyes and my heart was beating loudly in my chest. I wasn't breathing in an air and it was making my chest contract painfully. The wind picked up spinning rapidly around us. The words started to flash rapidly to the thumping of my heart. And Sheen was still screaming. He was still calling for her instead of me. And my heart was racing and the heart I forgot I had was pounding. The heart I forgot I had was beating and breaking.
Suddenly with no warning Sheen fell to his knees. Lightning flashed behind him and I saw the tears on his pale freckled cover cheeks. My heart stopped beating and the storm died. The words stopped flashing. I wasn't breathing but none of that mattered because Sheen was gone.
I feel to my knees like Sheen had, gasping in acute pain as my heart broke. I sobbed gripping at where my heart was trying to make it stop, trying to make sense of it.
My heart was broken- which was impossible because I never had one. I am Lucy the heartless girl. I am Lucifer- daughter of the devil and my heart was broken by a human –a human ginger, nerdy, boy- and there will be hell to pay.


NERVE CONDUCTION STUDIES (NCS)
These studies test the integrity of peripheral nerves. Small sensors (electrodes) are applied to the skin at specific locations to measure the function of a specific peripheral nerve. A stimulator sends an electrical pulse along the nerve which is recorded either directly from the nerve or from muscles contracting under the recording electrodes. You will be warned when to expect the “impulses” which can be uncomfortable but not painful – these are similar to static electricity. These tests measure the velocity (speed) of nerve conduction and the amplitude (strength) of the nerve signal. The detection of changes in velocity and/or amplitudes indicate possible nerve damage arising from a multitude of causes.

Today I made three day pickles. For me, three day pickles are the epitome of summer. They also remind me of my family - my mother and grandmother always made them. For those of you who are not familiar with them I've included the recipe. They are super easy to make and incredibly refreshing to eat, so give them a try:) Cyndy
PS linking up to Make: Grow: Thrift at The Haby Goddess this week for the first time. Check it out for more goodies:)
Recipe for three day pickles
- 1 large jar (to put the pickles in, I try to use a 1.5-2L jar, make sure to sterilize the jar in boiling water)
- 5 small cucumbers about 5-6 inches long)
- 1/4 cup salt
- 8 cups of water
- large bunch of fresh dill
- 2-3 garlic cloves
- 2-3 slices of rye bread (make sure the rye bread you use has caraway seeds in it, this is essential)
- Put the garlic cloves and about 1/3 of the fresh dill in the bottom of the jar.
- Cut one end off each cucumber. Stand the cucumber up with the cut end facing up. Cut the standing cucumber in half but don't quite cut all the way through to the bottom. Cut in half again, but don't cute quite all the way through (this creates long slices that you can pull apart once the pickling is done, like traditional dill pickle slices).
- Place the cut cucumbers in the jar, placing another 1/3 of the dill between the cucumbers as you place them in the jar.
- Once all the cucumbers are in place the last 1/3 of dill on the top.
- Put the water and the salt in a pan and bring to boil. Once boiling pour the salt water over the cucumbers in the jar, leaving about 2 cm at the top of the jar clear.
- Stuff the top of the jar with the rye bread slices.
- Leave the jars out on the counter for at least 3 days. After three days, carefully move the bread and test your pickles for taste, if they taste good to you they are done:) if not move the bread back into place for another day or so. Once they are done remove all the bread from the jar, place a lid on the top and refrigerate.

Many countries are adopting, ban on animal testing, globally. Walking the same path, Brazil too has taken early steps towards the cause, but with many changes all through. From the advent of Arouca Law in 2008, which contributed to the promotion of innovative non-animal methods and the Three R’s (Replacement, Reduction and Refinement), Brazil has now come to a stage, where specific legislation is being called upon against cosmetic tests on animals. As it is well known, many States in Brazil have already banned cosmetics testing on animals. Adding to this, in 2019, the National Council for the Control of Animal Experimentation (CONCEA) issued Resolution No. 38/2018, which states, killing of animals for experiments is banned in higher education.
The 289/2015 law was passed in 2015 by the State Assembly of Amazonas, to end these cruel and unnecessary tests. However, it was challenged by the Brazilian Association of Cosmetics, Personal Hygiene and Perfume Industry (ABIHPEC) in September 2018. In April 2020, the Brazilian Supreme Court decided that the State of Amazonas was within its rights to promulgate Law 289/2015, i.e., to ban cosmetic tests on animals in its territory. Similar challenges with Direct Action of Unconstitutionality (ADI 5996) have been filed by the ABIHPEC in opposition to Law 7.814/2017 against animal testing in the State of Rio de Janeiro.
Results of a recent opinion poll conducted by Datafolha in Brazil was released by Humane Society International, with 73% of the public demanding for a robust law to be legislated against cosmetic testing on animals. The poll conducted in August 2019, with a sample of 2,094 interviewees, revealed that the majority preferred, that the cosmetics must be presented with a guarantee that it has not been tested on animals. And there should also be a claim from the company stating that they are not testing cosmetics or new cosmetic ingredients on animals. A report has also been proposed to the Senate’s Commission of Economic Affairs (CAE) for amending Bill 70/2014, for a ban on cosmetic products and ingredients tests on animals with immediate effect.
Response from the poll, the amendment request, and the recent verdict from Supreme Court show a window of possibility towards the development of legislation in the near future for a ban on animal testing of cosmetics and new cosmetic ingredients in Brazil. Hence, manufacturers entering the Brazilian cosmetics market must keep abreast with the evolving regulations in relation to animal testing, to be compliant. Consult a Regulatory expert in cosmetics to analyse the impact of the decision on your business.


Rocket Launcher/Heavy Weapon
The TTI-D-RPG-2 is the Standard issue Heavy Demolitions Rocket Launcher. A classic design for a Classic weapon, its capable of, depending on the warhead, of destroying an entire starfighter.
102mm High-Explosive Anti-TankEdit
The 102mm High-Explosive Anti-Tank (HEAT) shaped charge can be fired from TTI-D-RPG-2 Heavy Munitions Launcher. As the name suggests it is designed to penetrate and/or destroy tanks, armored vehicles, and lightly hardened structures. The 102mm HEAT comes in three varieties, Shaped Charge, Proton Rocket, and Smart Missile.
102mm HEAT Shaped ChargeEdit
The Shaped Charge version is a simple, dumbfire rocket with a shaped charge, when the explosive detonates, the pressure wave liquefies the metallic liner in the charge, projecting it forward, the molten metal then burns through the target.
102mm HEAT Proton RocketEdit
The Proton Rocket version is a dumbfire rocket, like the shaped charge, but with a baridium charge like a proton torpedo. This is the most powerful 102mm HEAT variant but also the slowest, as such its used for long range demolition, attacking slow targets, and improvised artillery strikes.
102mm HEAT Smart MissileEdit
The Smart Missile, which contains a baridium charge similar to the Proton Rocket but of a smaller size and yield, is the Anti-Aircraft/Spacecraft munition version of the 102mm HEAT. When fired from the TTI-D-RPG-2, the charge will lock on the target and follow it until it is destroyed or out of sight. This version can easily punch through light shielding.

Endocrine disruptors are chemicals that interfere with the body's endocrine system, whether they are natural or synthetic. Hormones are synthesised, stored, and secreted by a multitude of glands and organs in the endocrine system. Endocrine disruptors can cause a wide range of health problems, including developmental, reproductive, neurological, and immunological problems.
Plasticizers, phytoestrogens, Pesticides.
Endocrine disruptors are substances that cause the body's hormones to malfunction. More than 1,000 substances with endocrine disruptive properties have been discovered in the environment. Pesticides, fungicides, industrial chemicals, plasticizers, nonylphenols, metals, medicinal agents, and phytoestrogens are examples of these substances. As indicated by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), any exogenous synthetic that might influence the blend, transport, digestion, and disposal of endogenous chemicals can be characterized as an endocrine disruptor .
In light of the beginning, endocrine disruptors can be classified as modern (polychlorinated biphenyls), horticultural (pesticides), drug (parabens), and private (bisphenol A). Likewise, weighty metals including lead, mercury, cadmium, and arsenic can be viewed as endocrine disruptors.
How may endocrine disruptors enter the human body?
Endocrine disruptors fundamentally enter the human body by ingestion (food/water admission), inward breath, or direct skin openness. Most of these synthetics are lipophilic and in this manner, amass in the fat tissue. This outcome in an extremely lengthy half-existence of these synthetics in the body.
The planning of openness is a significant boundary in deciding the specific effect of endocrine disruptors in people. Generally speaking, the impacts grow progressively and manifest in later life stages. In certain individuals, these synthetic substances prompt no conspicuous results .
What are the impacts of endocrine disruptors on wellbeing?
Endocrine disruptors can impact the usefulness of the endocrine framework by changing the typical degrees of chemicals, mirroring the elements of endogenous chemicals, or by adjusting the creation of chemicals.
Endocrine disruptors mirror the elements of endogenous chemicals by straightforwardly restricting and initiating an extensive variety of chemical receptors, including estrogen receptors, androgen receptors, glucocorticoid receptors, thyroid chemical receptors, and retinoid X receptors .
Influence on the regenerative framework
Since the greater part of the endocrine disruptors can impersonate sex chemicals, the most elevated unfavourable effect has been seen on the regenerative framework. by impeding sex steroid chemicals, endocrine disruptors can fundamentally influence the fetal turn of events. Among different disruptors, engineered estrogens, phytoestrogens, pesticides, plasticizers, and modern synthetics show a solid enemy of androgenic and feeble estrogenic properties.
During the advancement of the ovaries in creatures, endocrine disruptors have been found to obstruct follicle arrangement, meiosis, and essentialness. During the early post-pregnancy time frame, these synthetic substances might change the hereditary record of substantial cells, which thus might defer the beginning of pubescence.
Exposures to endocrine disruptors can cause fertility problems in both men and women. Studies have linked endocrine disruptor exposure with testicular hypotrophy, polycystic ovary, testicular dysgenesis syndrome, and hormone-sensitive ovarian and testicular cancers .
Influence on the adrenal organ
High bloodstream and high measures of unsaturated fats (lipophilic) make the adrenal organ a reasonable objective for endocrine disruptors. Concentrates on exploring the impact of these synthetic compounds on the nerve center pituitary-adrenal hub have featured the chance of upset steroid chemical union and digestion. In particular, endocrine disruptors have been found to weaken adrenal steroidogenesis by regulating the elements of aromatase, 5-α reductase, and hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases.
Impact on the pituitary organ
Numerous endocrine disruptors straightforwardly follow up on the diencephalic framework by copying the elements of synapses. This consequently influences the nerve center pituitary-gonadal hub and prompts various results, remembering delay in adolescence beginning and disturbance of the circadian framework.
Certain endocrine disruptors, like estrogenic synthetic substances, have been found to expand the combination and discharge of pituitary chemicals, including prolactin and Thyroid-Invigorating Chemical. This hence builds the gamble of bosom and thyroid diseases. What's more, there is proof recommending the job of estrogenic synthetic compounds in the turn of events and movement of pituitary organ malignant growth .
Endocrine disruptors and endocrine malignancies
There is more than adequate proof recommending that endocrine disruptors increment the gamble of testicular, prostate, thyroid, and bosom tumors. These endocrine disruptors incorporate Fungicides, pesticides, Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PDBE), Organochlorides, Polychlorinated Biphenyl (PCB), Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT), Dichloro-Diphenyl-Dichloroethylene (DDE), arsenic, and cadmium.
Word-related openness to pesticides and biocides has been related to a fundamentally expanded chance of thyroid malignant growth. The gamble is more articulated in men. Additionally, openings to PCB, dioxins, cadmium, phytoestrogens, Diethylstilbestrol (DES), furans, and ethylene oxide have been found to expand the gamble of bosom disease. As to malignant growth, arsenic, cadmium, PCB, and pesticides have been distinguished as potential benefactors.

“Major additional changes” in how the North Bay Regional Health Centre operates are expected as the board of directors wrestles with a $12-million deficit for 2013-2014.
Two weeks ago, it was announced that 22 nursing positions are set to disappear by June and a few months ago, it decided to ship its dirty laundry to Mississauga instead of Sudbury.
And three senior executive positions evaporated through attrition and shuffling duties over the last eight months.
But there's more cost-cutting and revenue-increasing moves on the horizon after a third party reviewed the recently co-located hospital operations.
“There's major additional changes to come,” Paul Heinrich, president and chief executive officer, said Monday while explaining the impact of new provincial funding formulas, operational cost increases and shifts in health care priorities
“We are committed to improving our operations and finding efficiencies . . . while ensuring patient care is our number one priority,” Heinrich said, repeating the tone of a media release last week outlining a “$14-M challenge.”
He said the $2-million deficit remaining on the books for the 2012-2013 fiscal year may yet be erased over the next couple of months, although that still leaves $12 million in red ink for the $250 million budget for next year.
Heinrich said the operational review commissioned by the board last year came back with 13 recommendations to cut costs and increase revenues.
“The operational review showed us our deficit is fixable and that means we have a lot of work ahead of us,” added Heinrich.
“We will involve our board, staff, physicians, unions and community partners to build upon our successes to create an efficient and effective organization that provides the best possible service to our patients.”
The hospital gave notice two weeks ago it was eliminating 20 positions for registered practical nurses as well as a few more registered nurses. Affected units include senior assessment and rehabilitation, as well as forensic and concurrent disorders on the mental health side of the facility.
But because there may be retirements and there are several dozen vacant positions to serve different departments or restructured shifts, Heinrich said they only anticipate saving $1 million with the changes overall.
The hospital's laundry bill has grown to $2.2 million since moving it to a consolidated service in Sudbury in 2007, closing the Nipissing Area Joint Hospital Laundry on Main Street and eliminating 26 local jobs.
Casselholme Home for the Aged, a municipal nursing home, is the only large health care facility doing its own laundry and bid for regional health centre's work.
Coun. Dave Mendicino said they were prepared to invest in an expanded operation to keep the work local, although they were not chosen.
“Changes will continue to happen,” Heinrich said, noting teams are being set up to look more closely at options to become more efficient.
“We have no choice but to be balanced (fiscally).”
The province is now funding hospitals differently, with growing population centres and aging demographics getting more money than hospitals in smaller and more youthful communities.
Heinrich said they need to focus on seamless health care delivery involving community-based groups.
The hospital will be looking at matching staffing mix and numbers to patient volumes, reducing lengths of stay, and moving more procedures from inpatient to outpatient.
Most of the recommendations, he said, are based on how comparisons to other hospitals left North Bay with room for improvement.
He also said the review outlined how it can generate more revenue through operations like parking, even though user fee hikes are not welcome by the public.
Changes will occur over the next two years.
“Now that we have the operational review completed we can begin to implement a plan to deal with the report’s 13 recommendations over the next six to 24 months,” stated hospital board chairman Phil Geden.

Air Comm operates environmental test lab facilities to facilitate the design of efficient environmental control systems , thermal and air management equipment, including blowers, motors, and valves to insure that customer specifications are precisely met, the facilities are capable of testing a variety of air conditioning technologies, including split-systems, packaged air conditioners and heat pumps, compressor optimization, water cooled condenser systems, and refrigerant-to-water loops.
On an individual component level, the lab can evaluate the performance of evaporator and condenser coils, blowers and compressors. The lab can operate 12v dc, 28v dc or 400hz ac equipment. We can analyze electric systems as well as engine driven systems.
Most importantly, an entire air conditioning system can be assembled in the lab and operated under differing conditions while the computer monitors system performance. Our data acquisition system allows us to acquire 90 channels of information (pressures, temperatures, current draw, air flows, etc.) on a real time basis.
Air Comm's environmental lab can effectively simmulate any environment on earth. Condenser room temperatures can be raised as high as 140°F. In the evaporator room, temperature can be varied from 40°F to 130°F while relative humidity can be varied from 5-95%. These conditions can be held to a 1° tolerance while the system is operating.
By operating our systems in our test lab, our engineers are able to refine system design to achieve maximum efficiency and performance. This includes:
- Optimization of superheat and sub-cooling settings
- Monitoring of the system’s response to atmospheric and air density changes
- Measurement of ducting and distribution changes
- Accountability of the effect of refrigerant plumbing routing and sizing
- Evaluation of changes to component selection and orientation
- Blower and fan performance testing
- Compressor volumetric efficiency testing
- Air-side and liquid-side psychrometric testing for Vapor Cycle Air-Conditioning (VCS) systems
- VCS system efficiency, performance and capacity optimization and validation testing
- Psychrometric calorimeter testing with enthalpy potential monitoring
- Blower and fan performance and optimization testing
- Steady state performance testing
- Pull down performance testing
- Ducting and distribution performance optimization testing

Ladiesss and gentlemennn. . . in this corner we have Metal Dollar Maniaaaa! In the opposing corner we have Give Me My Greenbackkks! Now, I draw your attention to the center of the ring for our featured match-up -- the Currency Optimization, Innovation and National Savings (COINS) Act.
S.2049 was introduced in January by Sens. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa), John McCain (R-Ariz.), Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) and Mike Enzi (R-Wyo.). The senators’ bill is a companion piece to House bill H.R.2977 , the Currency Optimization, Innovation and National Savings (COINS) Act, introduced in September by Republican Reps. David Schweikert (Ariz.) and Jeb Hensarling (Texas). The bill calls for a transition from the paper dollar to the dollar coin within four years; the House bill now has 12 co-sponsors.
The paper dollar became part of the U.S. currency during the Lincoln administration in the early 1860s. However, there has been a long-running battle to replace the paper dollar with the dollar coin and the movement has "gained fresh momentum." So much so, Crane & Co., the Massachusetts-based firm that provides the paper for the currency and Sicpa Securink Corp., a Swiss-based in company that supplies ink for the paper currency have stepped up their lobbying initiatives.
Proponents of the initiative argue that replacing the paper dollar would be better for the environment and save the taxpayer dollars – as much as $50 million a year. Those opposing the elimination of the one-dollar bill suggest that the environmental impact is not accurately portrayed, since the currency paper is made from cotton and linen fibers. Moreover, an October, 2011, poll from Lincoln Park Strategist found the Vast Majority of Americans Reject The Idea Of Getting Rid Of The Dollar Bill And Moving To A Dollar Coin.
