On CAPS, 95% of the 1,955 members who have rated Duke believe the stock will outperform the S&P 500 going forward.
Just yesterday, one of those bulls, fellow Fool Justin Loiseau (TMFJLo), kindly updated our community to the Duke opportunity:
Duke recognizes that spending today will mean saving (and earning) tomorrow. During the Q&A portion of the earnings call, [CEO James Rogers] went so far as to make a direct jab at one of his company's competitors: "Our modernization plan is ahead of most utilities in the country. If you look at Southern today, they are just now starting down the road of modernization of their generation fleet." I fact-checked Rogers, and he's right. In the past three years, Southern has spent 26% of its sales on capital expenditures, while Duke has doled out 32%. With legal battles behind it and a solid fourth quarter, I'm ready to make an "outperform" call on Duke
If you want market-topping returns, you need to put together the best portfolio you can. Of course, despite its four-star rating, Duke may not be your top choice.

Nikhil Kumar, MD, TD Power, expects around 65 to 70 percent of revenues from its manufacturing business to come from exports. The company's exports, especially to Japan, US and Europe, have been rising, Kumar told CNBC TV18.
TD Power has guided for 5 to 10 percent growth in revenues in the current fiscal, with EBITDA margins remaining unchanged at 11-12 percent.
The manufacturing business has been the major driver of revenues for TD Power, contributing around Rs 187 crore in the first half of this fiscal. With their EPC business still expected to lose Rs 10 - Rs 12 crore of losses, they plan to wind it up by end of year.

Thanks to Mr. E.E. McAlpine for his thoughts on this president (Letter: Hard to see Obama’s transparency, April 3, amarillo.com).
We need more people like Mr. McAlpine who care about our great country. The uninformed and the “don’t cares” put Obama in our White House.
As I said before, there is light at the end of the tunnel — possibly 2014 and 2016.
I have a lot I could say, but not enough people listen. They just don’t care. God bless America.

We study a system composed of two thick dielectric disks separated by a thin layer of an electrolyte solution. Initially both plates have the same surface charge distribution. The surface charge distribution has no rotational symmetry. We show that the top plate experiences a torque () if it rotates about its axis by an angle . The torque can be controlled by varying the electrolyte concentration, the separation and the surface charge density of the plates. For a specific example of charged rods attached to the plates, we find () sin(4) . We also study the dynamics of the system. We consider the case where the angular velocity of the bottom disk is a square-wave signal. We find that the average angular velocity of the top disk is not zero.

TAF commissioned Dunsky Energy + Climate Advisors to conduct a bulk procurement study to assess the barriers, opportunities, and trade-offs to scaling up heat pump retrofits through aggregation and bulk procurement.
Report findings suggest cost savings have some potential, but the best value of bulk purchasing heat pumps comes from streamlining processes and addressing supply and workforce gaps. Benefits of bulk purchasing programs include:
- Streamlined supply chains and minimized disruptions and supply delays;
- Improved customer product, technology awareness and buy-in;
- Better market penetration and availability of market options;
- Increased demand for local contractors and installers and more knowledgeable, experienced workforce to install and service this equipment.
Updating procurement policies to include bulk purchasing of heat pumps can help with speeding up initial heat pump uptake while still allowing for consumer choice and innovation.

Five survivors of Doolittle Tokyo Raiders recall daring sortie
Edward Saylor still vividly remembers the Chinese boy who helped save his life. In the days after his plane crashed into the waters just off China’s coast, Mr. Saylor, now 92, and four other Doolittle Tokyo Raiders were desperate and hungry — but they had survived a daring mission that was America’s first military strike against the Imperial Japanese homeland, four months after the infamous sneak attack on Pearl Harbor.
“The thought hits you, where you’re at, what you’ve got to do. … We don’t speak the language, what do we do now? That’s what was going through our heads,” said Mr. Saylor, one of the five survivors of the raid who will mark its 70th anniversary on April 18. The young boy helped Mr. Saylor’s crew navigate the Chinese countryside and helped scrounge up what little food he could find, just enough to keep the exhausted airmen moving.
After a weeks-long journey of more than 100 miles — all the while avoiding Japanese forces who had set up blockades of the Chinese coastline — the crew eventually was picked up by an American plane.
To this day, Mr. Saylor still feels a deep debt of gratitude to the young stranger, whom he never saw again.
“We owed him big time,” he said of the boy. “He was sure good for us.”
80 men who made history
Seven decades later, the five remaining survivors of the raid led by then-Lt. Col. James H. “Jimmy” Doolittle recognize their prominent place in history. Nothing like it had ever been done before. But faced with an enemy that already had proved its ability to strike the U.S. homeland, 80 brave men volunteered for what had all the makings of a suicide mission, its main purposes to satisfy a burning desire for revenge, to boost morale in the war’s darkest days and to demonstrate that the nation’s resolve remained as strong as steel.
Planning for the April 18, 1942, raid combined that need for vengeance with raw American ingenuity. It was the first-ever joint operation between the U.S. Army Air Force (USAAF), predecessor to today’s Air Force, and the Navy. B-25 bombers had never taken off from a Navy aircraft carrier before, and Doolittle, selected as mission leader, who piloted the first of the squadron’s 16 planes, had less than 400 feet of runway to work with.
Unable to carry enough fuel for a round trip, Doolittle and his men planned to drop their bombs on Tokyo and several other Japanese cities and make a quick escape toward China, a U.S. ally. American political leaders had tried to hammer out an agreement with Josef Stalin to allow the bombers to land in the Soviet Union after the raid, but the Soviet leader refused, leaving China as the only realistic option.
The men were under no illusions about their prospects for survival. Mr. Saylor, who grew up on a Montana cattle ranch and joined the military as a 19-year-old just as World War II began, didn’t think he’d make it out alive. But the fear of death didn’t panic him, he said. He and his comrades knew their mission, even if it turned out to be their final one, was a risk worth taking.
The raid “was the beginning of the end for them,” said Thomas Griffin, now 95, who served as navigator on plane No. 9 and later in the war survived 22 months in a Nazi prisoner-of-war camp.
“It gave the initial warning to [the Japanese] that we were coming and they had more than they could handle,” he said.
Rolling the dice
The mission wasn’t just dangerous for the Raiders; it also was a major strategic gamble for U.S. military planners. The Navy had just four carriers in the Pacific Ocean, and two — the USS Hornet, from which the 16 bombers launched, and the USS Enterprise, which sailed alongside the Hornet as a protective escort — were assigned to the Doolittle mission. Already depleted from the Dec. 7, 1941, Pearl Harbor attack, the Navy was on risky ground. If either carrier was sunk or badly damaged, it would be difficult, if not impossible, for U.S. forces in the Pacific to make up the loss quickly.
“Now you’ve committed 50 percent of your available carrier task force to what amounts to almost a public-relations mission,” said Craig L. Symonds, professor of naval heritage at the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis.

European Uranium Shareholder Meeting Results
VANCOUVER, British Columbia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--European Uranium Resources Ltd. (the "Company") (TSXV: EUU) announces that at the Company’s Annual General and Special Meeting of Shareholders held today in Vancouver, the Company’s shareholders voted to:
- fix the number of directors of the Company at four;
- elect management’s nominees Michael Hopley, Dorian (Dusty) Nicol, David Montgomery and David (Sam) Hutchins to the Company’s Board of Directors for the ensuing year;
- appoint KPMG LLP as the Company’s auditors for the 2014 fiscal year;
- renew the Company’s stock option plan; and
- ratify the Company’s advance notice policy.
On May 9, 2014, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement (the “SPA”) with Forte Energy NL (“Forte”) containing the principal terms for the sale of the Company's wholly-owned Slovakian subsidiaries, Ludovika Energy and Ludovika Mining (the “Ludovika Entities”) to Forte. The Ludovika Entities are the holders of the mineral licenses located in the Slovak Republic which comprise the Company's principal mineral properties, the Kuriskova and Novaveska Huta uranium projects in Slovakia.
It was a condition of the SPA that the SPA be approved by a special resolution of the Company’s shareholders requiring the affirmative vote of 66⅔% of the shares voted at the meeting. While over 63% of the shares voted at the meeting voted in favour of the special resolution to approve the SPA, the resolution was not approved by the required majority. As this condition to the SPA was not satisfied, the SPA has been terminated.
Anticipating the possibility that the SPA might not be approved at the meeting, and given the continued urgency of addressing the Company’s need for cash, the Company commenced negotiations with Forte for an alternative transaction that will allow the Company to preserve the value of its mineral licenses in Slovakia. While there is no agreement to undertake any transaction with Forte at this time, discussions regarding a potential alternative transaction are at an advanced stage.

Ball Turner Build: 1
Intro and milling the tee slot base
This is a companion article to the original post detailing the construction process.
- Introducing Jim’s ball turner
- The build, part 1: tee slot base [this post]
- The build, part 2: swivel puck assembly: lathe work
3D model and CAD drawings
For anyone using modeling software other than Fusion360, here are the step files for the design.
The dimensions are for my lathe specifically, but the model is fully parametric (if you use Fusion360). You can just enter the dimensions for your lathe, etc., and the model should update automatically (Modify -> Change Parameters). Just let me know if I’ve screwed something up.
My blog very intentionally doesn’t support comments or questions, but if you’d like to discuss this further, please see this thread on the Hobby Machinist forum.
Jim’s ball turner is a great beginner project for anyone with a lathe (and hopefully a mill of some sort). The design is easy to make and quite forgiving, but it demonstrates many aspects of machining. Best of all, if you make it, you’ll end up with a useful tool.
What follows is a long, absurdly detailed description of how I went about making the parts. There are lots of ways to do things, but this post describes how I went about it.
This is a very simple and incredibly tolerant design, though. Don’t let all this drivel scare you off.
There is absolutely no need to try to hit every dimension to 0.0001”. It’s absolutely possible to make this with nothing much more than a lathe. I have a lot of tools, so I tend to use them. With care, all you really need to build this is a lathe and some basic tools.
I describe things at this level of detail to help beginners. I’m not much more than a beginner myself, but I’ve picked up things over the years that I wish I’d understood better when I was starting.
Let’s start by milling the tee slot base. This is a pretty straightforward part to make: just milling, drilling, reaming, and tapping. None of the dimensions are critical except for the diameter of the reamed hole in the end for the puck.
The dimensions in the drawings are for my lathe, though — it’s quite likely that your lathe will differ.
Tools I used
- Horizontal bandsaw (a hacksaw works fine but is harder work!)
- Vertical mill with DRO (dials and indicators also work if you don’t have a DRO)
- 3/4” roughing end mill (any end mill will work)
- Mill vise
- Parallels to raise up the work
- Jacobs chuck with R8 adapter to fit my spindle
- Edge finder
- Dial indicator and mag base (to tram and orient the vise)
- 142 deg “spotting” drill (the tip of a center drill also works)
- #3 drill (tap size for 1/4-28 @80% thread engagement). A 7/32” or 5.5mm drill also works.
- 1/4-28 taper or plug tap
- Letter U drill or 23/64 drill (pre-drill for the reamed hole)
- 0.3760” chucking reamer
- Single flute chamfering tool
- Scotchbrite wheel on a 6” buffer to deburr all edges (a file, carbide scraper, or Dremel tool will work just as well)
That’s a long but pretty complete list. You don’t need all of these tools to make such a simple part, but these are what I used in the process.
Ensure the mill head is trammed such that the spindle is perfectly perpendicular to the table, and the fixed jaw of the vise is indicated parallel to the X axis.
Bandsaw the rough stock from a length of 1/2” thick cold rolled steel to rough size (cut out the rough stock slightly oversize in length and width, maybe 1/8” in each direction).
Pretty much any metal you have on hand will work, but steel is better than something soft like aluminum.
Mill the bar to width and length
Stand the part up on edge in the vise, then mill the edge on top with the end of your cutter until it is cleans up and is perfectly parallel to the table (i.e. flat). Then flip the part over and mill the other side until the part is exactly 1.415” wide.
You can minimize the burr that forms if you climb mill rather than conventionally mill. Climb milling means moving the table toward the left when the cutter is over the back half of the exposed edge (traversing the cutter right), and traversing left when it’s on the front edge. Only do this if you take relatively light cuts and know the gibs on your mill are reasonably tight (the cutting forces can pull the cutter into the work).
Note that I didn’t bother milling the wide faces. Since the wide unfinished faces don’t bear against anything, there is no point in machining them.
Next, put the part on parallels in the vise as shown in the photo above (tapping it down with a hammer until the parallels don’t move ensures it’s fully seated).
My small 4” vise left enough of the part exposed to mill both ends and the ledge feature all the way around.
Now move the cutter to the right edge, lower the cutter, and mill along the entire right edge with the side of the cutter. Continue until the entire face cleans up (move the table right each pass until the face on the end fully cleans up).
Don’t touch the cranks at this point and zero the X axis on the DRO. Now raise the spindle, and move the table left by half the diameter of the cutter (0.375” in my case). Re-zero the X axis on the DRO (the spindle is now directly over the right edge).
This makes your absolute zero reference the right edge of the part. If X reads 0.0000 in absolute mode, you know the axis of the spindle is directly over the right edge. Always know what you are using as a reference feature!
Since we want the part to be exactly 4.635” long, move the table to the right until the DRO reads -4.6350 on the X axis (with the center of the spindle over the left end of the part). Now switch the DRO to “incremental” mode and re-zero X.
The absolute mode “X=0” point is still over the other end of the bar, we re-zeroed in incremental mode which is a separate, second coordinate space. Right now, “X=0” in incremental space means the spindle is over the left edge oof the part.
Now move the table right half the cutter diameter again (.375) and re-zero yet again. Now the right edge of the cutter is exactly over where the bar should end and the DRO (in incremental mode) reads “X=0”.
Move the cutter further left until it’s off the bar. Now mill away material on the the rough cut left end of the bar. Continue milling away material on the end until the DRO reads X=0.0000.
At this point, the rough stock is milled to the exact length and width required. The next step is to mill the ledges and platform for the puck.
Locate the middle
First we must locate the middle of the bar with an edge finder:
Move the edge finder to the front and retract the table until it jumps.
Go back to absolute mode and zero the Y axis on the DRO.
Reposition the edge finder to the back, then feed in the table until it jumps again. Use the 1/2 function on the DRO (or just feed in in Y until it reads half the displayed value, then re-zero).
Now X=0.0000 / Y=0.0000 in absolute mode indicates when the spindle is exactly over the right edge and in the middle of the bar.
Mill the ledges and platform
Let’s mill the front ledge first. Feed in in Y until the DRO reads 0.7500 (the diameter of my cutter). At this point, the edge of the cutter is over the center of the bar.
Switch back to incremental mode, and zero Y. We want X=0.0000/Y=0.0000 to be our absolute reference for all further movements, so we only use incremental mode for temporary, in the moment, relative motions.
The “upper deck” of the tee is 0.949” wide. Half of that is 0.4745, so feed in until the DRO reads Y=0.4745. Lock the table and mill away the front edge to a depth of 0.194”.
Now unlock the table and retract until the DRO reads Y=-0.4745. Lock the table again and mill away the back edge.
Now we want to mill away the “platform” on the left.
Go back to absolute mode momentarily.
We want the right edge of the cutter 3.0000” from the right edge, so move the table right until it reads -3.3750” (3” plus half the cutter diameter). Back to incremental, and zero X. Now mill away the raised section the left of that point.
Before drilling and tappping any holes, you’ll want to test the fit in your compound, making adjustments if necessary.
One thing that trips up many beginners (and experts) is removing a part from a vise too soon, and losing all those reference points you so carefully programmed into the DRO.
So before removing the part, we need to set some stops to re-locate the part back in the vice. The fixed jaw of the vise locates in Y. The tops of the parallels locate Z. But nothing currently locates X, so before removing the part, be sure to set a stop in X.
A handy locating stop for X (especially if you haven’t already bought or made something that clamps to your vise or the table) is the spindle itself! Simply remove any cutter, lower the quill, bump the side of the spindle up against the part, then zero X in incremental mode. Now you can safely remove the part without losing your reference.
Once you’ve safely removed the part, deburr all the edges, then test the fit in your compound slot. It should slide easily with the ledge taking up almost the entire width of the slot.
Return the part to the vise, being sure to bump it up against the stop (or spindle) and tapping it down against the parallels.
If you need to make any adjustments to the dimensions, do it now. If you need to remove any material off the sides, though, be sure to remove an equal amount from each side.
Drill and tap the holes
All holes are through holes, so this is easy.
Replace the roughing end mill with a Jacobs chuck to hold the drills and taps.
Locating the holes is trivial with the DRO already set. The process is exactly the same as before.
First, drill and tap the four 1/4-28 holes.
Position the table to the left front hole: X=2.250 Y=0.237 (absolute). Use a spotting drill to create a little divot exactly on location.
A word about spot drilling
The divot from a spotting drill ensures that the longer and flimsier twist drill will drill a hole in the correct location. Without a spot, a drill can and will, bend and skate slightly on a flat surface, causing you to drill out of position and off angle.
Spotting drills are stubby and stout, and they don’t have long spiral flutes like a twist drill, so they are much sturdier and won’t bend.
You want the angle of the spot to be at least as wide or wider than the tip of your drill (most are 135°). This ensures the tip of the drill skates down to the bottom of the spot. If you use a center drill, ensure you just barely peck the angled tip into the work — you’ve drilled too far if you get to the cylindrical portion.
Spotting is particularly important with long, small diameter drills, but it’s wise to make spotting a habit.
It’s fastest to minimize the number of tool changes, so spot all four locations without changing tools: next spot at X=2.250/Y=-0.237, then X=0.750/Y=-0.237, then finally X=0.750/Y=0.237.
After spotting all four locations, change to the #3 drill and drill all the way through at each spot location.
You can avoid long stringy chips by “pecking” or pulsing the pressure on the quill handle. You don’t actually need to lift the drill, just remove the downward pressure periodically to break the chip. With practice, this also becomes habit. Cutting oil will prolong the life of your cutting edge between sharpening, but is somewhat optional on just a few small holes like this.
Next, use the chamfering tool to create a small chamfer around the top of all four holes. This looks nicer and removes any burr pulled up by the drill bit.
Lastly, power tap 1/4-28 at all four locations. I only tap under power (vs. hand tapping) when it’s a through hole bigger than, say, #6 screw size (blind holes are just too dangerous).
To power tap, place the tap in the Jacobs chuck and tighten it securely. Apply some tapping fluid, set the spindle to a slow speed, and position a finger over the STOP button. Now the lower the quill until the tap engages the hole and starts to pull itself in. Hit STOP well before it reaches the end flutes of the tap (the spindle will coast for a bit after you hit stop). Finally, hit the reverse button to back out of the hole.
One subtlety with backing out: you want to apply slight downward pressure on the quill with your right hand as it’s backing out. Otherwise, it tends to pull up the top thread when it snaps out of the hole, and screws can be hard to start.
Cutting the pivot hole for the puck
The large hole on the left is similar, but it references from the left edge of the part.
In absolute mode, move to X=-4.635 (spindle over the left edge of the part), Y=0.0000 (the middle of the part).
Go to incremental mode, zero X, then move the table left 0.813”. That’s a lot easier and less error prone than adding 0.813 to -4.635!
Spot and drill again at this location. Use a drill just a few thou smaller than your reamer size. Since I used a 0.376” reamer, I drilled with a letter U drill (0.368” diameter).
Be sure to create a generous chamfer at the top of the hole for the puck. Otherwise the puck won’t seat well because of the fillet at the base of the boss (from the lathe tool nose radius when we make the puck).
Finally, ream the hole with the reamer. Use plenty of cutting fluid and slow down the spindle speed to about 1/3 of the normal cutting speed for that size drill.
It’s best to ream the hole for the puck 0.0005” to 0.001” larger than the turned diameter of the boss on your pucks. If you don’t have a set of under/over reamers for nominal dimensions, be sure to turn the diameter of your puck bosses about 0.001” less than the size of whatever reamer you have available.
Honestly, a good sharp 3/8” drill probably suffices without reaming. Typically, though, drills cut slightly oversized and not entirely round holes.
Whatever size hole you end up with, you can always adjust the size of the boss on the puck with the lathe until it just fits without any slop.
At this point, the tee slot base is complete. You can remove the part from the vise, deburr all the edges (all corners and especially the holes on the bottom where the drill broke through).
You should end up with a tee base that slides easily in your compound and looks something very similar to the top part here:
Note that unlike a normal toolpost, the screws don’t compress the “ledge” of the compound. This base is not a tee nut. The screws force the top of the base into the ledge of the compound.
In theory, this means that if you really gorilla the screws, you could damage the ledge on your compound. Don’t do that. There is absolutely no need to really gronk down on this base in the compound. All the cutting forces are purely tangential, toward the floor.
If this aspect of the design bothers you, you can make the base a nut and make another clamp part with through holes for bolts that goes on top (just ensure that the height of the base is less than the height of the slot and that the swivel handle clears the clamping parts).
The tee slot on your compound is intended to handle fairly significant forces (say from an extended boring bar) though – personally, I feel this is a theoretical rather than a practical concern.

Congress is considering a bill to extend current hours-of-service waivers for propane and other home heating truckers until May 31.
On Feb. 25, Rep. Bill Shuster (R-Pa.) introduced the Home Heating Emergency Assistance Through Transportation Act or H.R. 4076, which has nine co-sponsors.
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s emergency declarations provide HOS relief to home heating fuel transporters, the House transportation chairman stated. “However, these declarations can only last 30 days at a time, creating uncertainty and limited relief,” Shuster said.
If the crises resolves before May 31, Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx may decide the extension is no longer needed. The legislation stipulates Foxx make that determination by consulting the governors of affected states and on a state-by-state basis.
An exceptionally cold winter has increased demand, but supply is expected to remain tight until spring because of insufficient infrastructure to deliver to high-demand areas. The FMCSA extended rare regional emergency declarations until March 1, affecting the District of Columbia and 36 states in the South, East and Midwest.

But when asked earlier this week about the milestone he reached Thursday — going 16 years and 1,125 regular-season games without scoring fewer than 10 points — James was stumped.
“Really?” he told ESPN. “I don’t remember it.”
It turns out James isn’t alone.
His line: nine assists, five rebounds, 3-for-13 shooting from the field in 43 minutes.
And eight points.
“When I went to look at the box score I was like, ‘Well, maybe I had a good game,’” Donyell Marshall, now an assistant with the G League’s Greensboro Swarm and a forward on that 2006-07 Cavaliers team, told ESPN. “Then I looked at the box score and I was like, ‘Well, I didn’t do anything either.’”
“If you’d asked me, ‘Do you remember having 30-plus and LeBron being in single digits?’ I would have expected to have some kind of memory of it,” Drew Gooden, a former Cavaliers forward and now working as an analyst for Washington Wizards broadcasts, told ESPN with a laugh.
There was one person, however, who had a crystal clear memory of what happened that night: then-Bucks coach Terry Stotts.
“I’ll be honest, I remember that game distinctly — and not because LeBron didn’t score 10,” Stotts told ESPN.
The final play of that Cleveland victory — a dunk by Michael Redd with 14.8 seconds to go — would turn out to be the beginning of the end of Stotts’ tenure in Milwaukee.
“Michael had a dunk in the last seconds of the game,” Stotts said. “A meaningless dunk. We were down nine.
“[But] he goes up to dunk the ball, and he did something to his knee and missed the next 20 games. … We went 3-17.”
And, a little over two months later — after Milwaukee entered that Cavaliers game with a .500 record, and with wins in seven of their prior nine games — Stotts was fired. He would later go on to have a successful nine-year run as coach of the Portland Trail Blazers.
But while the game turned out to have significant consequences for the Bucks, for Cleveland it was simply another night on the way to a wildly successful season that ended with an NBA Finals loss to the San Antonio Spurs.
So while James’ former teammates couldn’t remember much about a random January game 16 years ago, the memories of playing alongside him remain strong.
“I’m amazed by how much he keeps developing and growing and figuring things out, all with the weight of the world on his shoulders,” Gooden said.
“He’s a real life superhero, who is always available.”
FOR MARSHALL, WHO spent parts of three seasons playing alongside James as part of a career that saw him play for eight different teams, his enduring memory of James was of someone who was dedicated to both improving and knowing the history of the game from a very young age.
“I played with a lot of superstars, but never one who studied the game from the age he was at the time,” Marshall said. “As soon as the game was over, he wanted [to watch] film.
“To me, a lot of guys today aren’t necessarily students of the game. A lot of guys didn’t know the players that played before him, that paved the way for him. He’s a guy, though, that knows Oscar Robertson’s stats. He knows Kareem [Abdul-Jabbar’s] stats. He knows Wilt Chamberlain‘s stats.”
Gooden, meanwhile, said what stood out to him was the way James, at every point throughout his life under a basketball microscope going back to his high school days at St. Vincent-St. Mary in Akron, Ohio, has always met the moments placed before him.
“Just him always figuring it out,” Gooden said. “Just being able to produce under pressure. I’ve known him since he was 15, so it’s a different perspective from knowing him over 26 years. …
“He had this Nike campaign, about how we were witnesses to his greatness. Well, we have all been witnesses. It’s just that. It’s that, plus more.”
To put James’ streak in perspective: Marshall played in 957 games across 15 NBA seasons. Gooden, meanwhile, played 790 across 14 years in the league — both far more, and far longer, than the average NBA player’s career.
“It’s actually more surprising he ever scored under 10 points than to say he hasn’t done it in 16 years,” Marshall said. “Early in your career, your rookie year, you’re going to have some games where you might not score over 10. But the greatness that he has displayed and all that he’s done, I would say I’m more surprised he had a game under 10 points than I am surprised about the streak.”
Former Cavaliers guard Daniel Gibson, on the other hand, was a rookie that season. When asked about playing alongside James, Gibson immediately recalled his pre-draft workout ahead of the 2006 draft, when he was taken by Cleveland with the 42nd overall pick.
“I had a terrible workout in Houston, and then the Cavs were my second workout,” said Gibson, who is now an assistant coach with the G League’s Cleveland Charge, told ESPN. “And [LeBron] was there and I did amazing.
“After the workout, he came up to me and it just kind of gave me all of the confidence in the world. Being that he’s LeBron James, you’re [just] hoping for an opportunity on a roster — let alone him telling you he’d love that, if I was still available, to be on their roster.
“He instilled a lot of confidence in me and then that’s what I learned about him from the day I got to the Cavs, man. He was, to me, the best player in the world, and he was still the first person in the gym, last one to leave.”
“At first I was like, ‘That’s just another one of those records that’s kind of made up,’ but then I realized it’s not. It’s like a real record.”
LeBron James, on his streak of 1,125 regular-season games with at least 10 points
For his part, James said he doesn’t pay much attention to the regular-season game streak, saying it was only something he noted whenever it popped up on his social media timeline or was mentioned in the media.
And, he said, when he looks at box scores at halftime, his point total isn’t something he focuses on.
“I see it,” James said, “but the most things I look at are our team turnovers, the other team’s points off turnovers, fast-break points by our opponents, my personal turnovers.
“That’s pretty much it. I don’t look at the total points too much.”
THE CLOSEST JAMES came to breaking the streak was March 20, 2021, when he fell to the court in agony and frustration after spraining his ankle after landing on Atlanta Hawks forward Solomon Hill.
It briefly looked like he might not be able to keep playing. But he managed to stay in long enough to hit a 3-pointer to get to 10 points before calling a timeout and leaving the game.
It would turn out to be the last game James would play for more than a month, though James said he wasn’t aware at the time of the ramifications of his made 3-pointer.
“Not until after the game,” James said.
Another noteworthy moment during the streak came during the 2017-18 regular-season finale against the New York Knicks, where James, whose goal was to play in all 82 games, immediately left the contest after scoring exactly 10 points in 11 minutes.
While James’ double-digit points streak has become a bigger deal over time — particularly after he passed Michael Jordan’s previous record of 866 consecutive regular season games on March 30, 2018, in a Cavaliers victory over the New Orleans Pelicans — it was never something he thought about trying to achieve.
“I was like, ‘Oh, that’s pretty cool,’” James said, referring to passing Jordan. “At first I was like, ‘That’s just another one of those records that’s kind of made up,’ but then I realized it’s not. It’s like a real record. But, I don’t know. I just go out and play.
“It’s the same with the all-time scoring record when I get it. I never even [aimed for it] … It’s pretty cool. I mean, I can’t sit here and be like, ‘Oh, well, it doesn’t mean anything.’ Because it does. But I didn’t set out to do it. I didn’t.”
Whether James aimed to achieve it or not, 16 years later he’s still doing it, inching closer to breaking Abdul-Jabbar’s once seemingly insurmountable mark as the league’s all-time leading scorer with 38,387 points.
For Gooden, though, it gives him an opportunity to prove to his 10-year-old son, Drew Gooden IV, that his dad actually does know a thing or two about playing with one of the greats.
“I will be showing my son this box score,” Gooden said with a laugh, adding that his son asks about James “all the time.”
“He’ll say to me, ‘Did you talk to LeBron? Do you know it’s his birthday?’” Gooden continued. “He’s a huge LeBron fan, and he’s getting to the age now where he knows it’s the truth, because there’s data to back it up.
“There’s some historic nights I’ve been part of with him. But never did I think there would be a historic night where he scored single digits and I had 31.”

“I think it (a steak house) is a restaurant concept that is not as well represented in the area.”
“It is not merely an office building in Metairie, Louisiana, that dictates who and what Ruth's Chris Steak House is,”

"Taking roads I never have, just 'cause I want to."
If there is one thing that sums up singer-songwriter Paula Branscheid’s approach to writing music, it’s a “melody-first” mentality. She wants to pull you in and get you to sing along after hearing a song just one time. Mix that with diary-like lyrics and you’ve got her song-writing recipe. For her, writing songs is a form of therapy; listening to one of her songs is like getting a view into a chapter of her private life.
She cites South Carolina-band, Jump, Little Children, as her favorite band of all time with My Brightest Diamond coming in as a close second. Other major musical influences include Band of Horses, Lucy Dacus, Jeff Buckley, Death Cab for Cutie, & Lord Huron.
Born in South Carolina, USA, and now living in Rosenheim, Germany, Paula's melodic songs tell of love and heartbreak as well as finding your own path.

God the Mother does not exist! Revelation occurs after the end of the world.
An argument that I encountered today when I was preaching about God the Mother.
The person kept on insisting that there is no God the Mother (Heavenly Mother) because Revelation 21 is a prophecy that will take place after the end of the world.
Here, the angel said,
And about the bride,
we can understand the Spirit and the Bride can give us the water of life. If Revelation 21 is a prophecy that must occur after the end of the world, the Spirit and the Bride must give us the water of life after the end of the world. When there’s nothing left, in the emptiness, God is going to grant the water of life. Very strange, isn’t it?
Now, the slanderers are going to say that God is going to grant us the water of life in the kingdom of heaven. Then, those who enter the kingdom of heaven, do they have the choice to choose whether or not to live forever with the water of life in the kingdom of heaven?
I didn’t know that heaven was a place where we can choose NOT to live eternally. LOL
And also Revelation 21 says, Jerusalem must come to this earth. If this occurs after the earth disappears… No place to land! Will it be floating in the air, or what?
The Spirit is God who comes to this earth second time to give us the water of life (Hebrews 9:28), as a man. And when He comes, He will testify His Bride, who is God the Mother.
The slanderers also insist that Adam represents the Christ (Romans 5:14). But they don’t understand that if Adam represents the Christ, His flesh and bone also must represent Eve, which means that Eve must also represent God; who is God the Mother.
Jerusalem above (heaven) is our Mother (Galatians 4:26), and She must be God the Mother.
When Revelation 21 occurs after the end of the world, no one can receive the water of life nor can enter the kingdom of heaven.
Don’t be deceived with the insistences of the slanderers (who deny Christ Ahnsahnghong and God the Mother (Korean: 어머니하나님) who do not follow the commandments of God like the Passover of the new covenant and the Sabbath day. Only through the root of David we can understand Revelation and all the prophecies. If you want to learn the truth about God the Mother, come to the World Mission Society Church of God (WSMCOG) (Korean: 하나님의교회 세계복음선교협회) that was established by Christ Ahnsahnghong. (See Spanish version here).
God the Mother who is the bride in Revelastion 21 came to this earth in fresh for our salvation.
Amen! According to the prophecy of the Bible, God the Mother came to the earth in the flesh to give us the water of life (eternal life) along with God the Father (Revelation 22:17.)
We must know that the Book of Revelation was not record chronological.
If one insists that Heavenly Jerusalem must come after the earth is dedtroyed,he or she must read again Rev22:9 which says one of the seven angels who was holding the bowls of the last plagues….so before the last plagues our Heavenly Mother,the Holy City Jerusalem was seen coming down (on this earth).some people have been heavily blinded hence they come with these silly arguments.they cannot see things that are so clear in the Bible.
I feel sorry for them because their spiritual eyes have been badly wounded by the devil.
What a illogical argument it is ! Without having eternal life, no one can enter the kingdom of heaven, so It is natural that ” before the end of the world” , the Spirit and the Bride must give us the water of life(eternal life) as written in the Bible.
It is a common sense! Thanks for your comment AZstar. God bless you!
Such ridiculous claimmants are always found false. So that’s why God left the Bible for us!
The reason why God the Mother appears is to save us. If following the words of slanders,she doesn’t need to come to this earth. So,she has to come first for saving us b4 at the end of the earth.
That is so true lebekah. God bless you! She must appear to sabe us. That’s why She must be ready for the Heavenly wedding banquet in these last days.
That is so true lebekah. Let’s all pray that every person can have the chance to enter salvation. Amen.
In this age, the Spirit and the bride give us the water of life or eternal life. We should come to the World Mission Society Church of God to meet the Spirit and the bride [Christ Ahnsahnghong and God the Mother] to receive the water of life.
You might think how Ahnsahnghong can be the Spirit? However, if you look into the Bible and study the prophecies wherein, you will understand the Christ Ahnsahnghong is the Savior of this age, who has come to fulfill all prophecies of the Bible. He fulfilled the prophecies including the prophecy of David’s throne and of the fig tree. (For more information, please visit http://crc.ac/category/world-mission-society-church-of-god/father-ahnsahnghong/ )
We sure can realize Christ Ahnsahnghong is the Christ with all the prophecies recorded in the Bible. And more to this, we definitely must have firm faith towards our Heavenly Mother for allowing us salvation.

'Back When We Were Crazy' pays tribute to Susanna Clark
Four years after her death, Susanna Clark's life and legacy will be celebrated at the Bluebird Cafe. On Saturday, the famed listening room will host the sold-out program "Back When We Were Crazy: Susanna Clark's Songs and Journals." Clark came to Nashville with her husband Guy in the early 1970s and was an integral part of a vibrant songwriting scene that has been compared to the community of American expat writers in Paris during the 1920s.
The event was organized by Tamara Saviano, a friend of the Clark family and author of the new biography "Without Getting Killed or Caught: The Life and Music of Guy Clark."
"Guy gets most of the attention and I want Susanna to get equal billing." Saviano wrote in an email. "Susanna was the love of Guy's life and his muse. Without Susanna, it's unlikely Guy would have had his illustrious career as a songwriter." During the show, Saviano will read excepts from Clark's journals. Singer-songwriter Carlene Carter will perform "Easy From Now On," a song she wrote with Clark that was recorded by Emmylou Harris for her 1978 classic LP "Quarter Moon in a Ten Cent Town" (Clark also painted the album cover).
"I sing 'Easy From Now On" and talk about Susanna at almost every show I do," Carter said. "I loved her deeply ... I thought she had the greatest way of putting things into words. She was just a wild-ass girl. Like I am."
Singer-songwriter Kelsey Waldon, a rising Americana star, will sing "We Were Kinda Crazy Then," which Clark wrote and Jerry Jeff Walker recorded. Waldon, Saviano's former intern, transcribed "a good bit of the Guy book and has been a long time fan of Guy, Townes (Van Zandt) and Susanna."
The Bluebird is a fitting venue for this event. In 1995, Susanna Clark asked Van Zandt, Harris, Steve Earle and Guy Clark to play a benefit concert for the Interfaith Dental Clinic; the show was recorded and released as the live album "Together at the Bluebird Cafe."

THE OWNERSHIP DIVIDEND
3 STANDARDS OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
EO distributes and strengthens operational oversight. The traditional shareholding model that underpins non-EOBs is routinely criticised for imposing distance between shareholders and managers and leaders. Even large shareholders can find that their influence on firms’ operations is limited, while their smaller counterparts are often marginalised altogether. The frustration that stems from that structural muting of investors’ voices is increasingly sparking incidents of ‘shareholder activism’, in which backers join forces to lobby management over common concerns – for example, excessive pay awards to senior figures.
“I wanted to maintain the culture of the business, I wanted to maintain the jobs within the business” EAGLE PLANT FOUNDER Conversely, evidence to the Inquiry shows EO spreads operational oversight throughout a community of co-owning, shareholding employees, putting each member of staff at the heart of governance. In the case of the 100% employee-owned City Health Care Partnership CIC, governance is channelled through a staff-run co-owner forum, which regularly meets with directors. A representative told the Inquiry: “At the co-owner forum, the finance director … gives all the financial figures; [employee representatives] can ask the chief executive any questions. The co-owner forum must also take on board feedback from the employee survey. The survey results go to the forum, as do action plans that are developed by the staff. The directors will be held to account if [those plans] are not implemented.” Mike Stoane Lighting moved to employee ownership in 2014, when the founder exited the business. Its employees’ new sense of ownership has fostered greater engagement. A representative told the Inquiry: “I do think that people feel they own the business and a large number … feel very strongly that we should be accountable to them and are very interested in the structure of the business, [and] in the future of the business.” The Inquiry found that this increase in transparency and accountability boosted employees’ levels of involvement both in their own work and the overall direction of the company. 20
4 EMPLOYEE OWNERSHIP AS A ROUTE TO BUSINESS SUCCESSION EO is a powerful, sustainable alternative to trade sales. Industry research shows too many UK SMEs and family businesses inadequately plan for the challenge of ownership succession, with the result that many of them end up damaged or weakened by the process. The best-known option – trade sale – was frequently cited in the Inquiry as a path that firms were unwilling to take, because the outcomes are often unsatisfactory. Several former family business owners told the Inquiry they had rejected a trade sale because too often it can lead to the breakup of the business, the relocation of its jobs or, in the worst-case scenario, a complete shutdown. While owners were aware that a trade sale can be a financially lucrative option in the short term, its appeal diminishes when they factor in their concerns about: • the future of the employees • the legacy of the business • their commitment to the workforce in their firms’ local communities A senior figure at technology transformation company Agilysis told the Inquiry that in the run-up to the firm’s EO transition, the cofounders “had been looking at different succession options for a while, and really none of them quite suited what they were looking for”. But with the advent of the Nuttall Review and the Finance Act 2014, the founders saw “really attractive” opportunities. Its HR director said: “I would say they were interested in rewarding and creating some value for the employees who had helped build the business to that point.” The founder of Toucan Computing added that his firm’s EO conversion stemmed from efforts to find means of “permanently tying the staff in”. While employees had received bonuses for many of the firm’s 20 non-EOB years, they stressed: “I wanted to tie them in better. I looked at all sorts of models, and they were all far too complicated or had downsides.” But when they found out about EO through the EOA, things “started to fit into place”. Construction, engineering and utility service provider Eagle Plant became employee-owned after the founder chose the option as part of a business succession plan. The founder pointed to several criteria as playing a crucial role in the transition decision: “I wanted to maintain the culture of the business, I wanted to maintain the jobs within the business. These [issues] were all important things and I wanted to avoid a trade sale and management buyout … I didn’t like the idea of that because I felt a lot of management buyouts … start off very well, [then] people start thinking, ‘let’s cash in the chips, let’s get rich quick’, and so forth.”

Olympia’s first Indigenous Peoples Day honored the ancestors who settled this land long before Christopher Columbus arrived in what would be America.
Hundreds of people attended Monday’s celebration at Sylvester Park, including representatives from several local tribes. The scent of sage was in the air alongside the sounds of traditional drumming and spiritual songs.
Olympia is among a handful of U.S. cities to recognize Indigenous Peoples Day on the second Monday in October, a federal holiday that long has honored Columbus.
For many Native Americans, Columbus Day is synonymous with violence, genocide, slavery and brutal exploitation of their people by European conquerors. One poster on Sylvester Park’s gazebo summed up that feeling Monday: “Stop insulting the ancestors’ souls. Speak the truth. Abolish Columbus Day.”
Farron McCloud Sr., chairman of the Nisqually Tribal Council, spoke of the suffering that Native Americans endured as they were forced to assimilate into the white settlers’ world while abandoning their ancient culture and traditions.
McCloud also praised the legacies of Chief Leschi and civil rights icon Billy Frank Jr. — two men who fought to protect the rights and land of the Nisqually people and beyond.
“We have our spirituality, our culture and our pride as Native Americans,” he told the crowd. “We’re not going anywhere. We’ll be here forever.”
Among those in attendance was state Sen. John McCoy, D-Tulalip and a member of the Tulalip Nation. McCoy successfully pushed for legislation that requires Washington public schools to teach tribal history. Washington and Montana are the only two states with such laws on the books.
“We need to educate people on what we in Indian country would say is the real history — the good, the bad and the ugly,” McCoy told The Olympian. “We have to teach the history correctly.”
McCoy hopes the Indigenous Peoples Day movement continues to spread across the country, exposing the atrocities associated with the arrival of European settlers in the Americas.
“The old adage says that if you don’t teach history, you’re doomed to repeat it, so let’s not repeat it,” McCoy said. “We want to correct the record.”

* Expects 4th straight record op profit in 2014/15, up 4.8 pct
* To open record 1,600 new 7-Eleven stores in Japan in 2014/15
* Sees consumption recovering by June from April tax hike (Adds executive comments, details from results)
By Ritsuko Shimizu
TOKYO, April 3 (Reuters) - Japan’s Seven & I Holdings Co , the world’s biggest convenience store operator, unveiled plans for a record pace of expansion at home, unfazed by the government’s first sales tax hike in 17 years.
The owner of the 7-Eleven chain is banking on a revolution in Japanese retailing, with shoppers increasingly inclined to pick up everyday necessities at convenience stores rather than making trips to supermarkets.
Seven & I will open 1,600 new 7-Eleven convenience stores in the year started on March 1, helping it usher in another year of record earnings. The company posted its third record annual operating profit in a row on Thursday.
Seven & I, the first of Japan’s big retailers to report full-year results this month, said it is confident the country’s sales tax hike will not leave a lasting mark on consumption. The main risk, it said, is slow government policy responses should the tax start to wreak havoc on demand in the world’s number three economy.
The last increase in the consumption tax dragged Japan into a recession and depressed private demand for years. But economists are more sanguine about the latest hike, optimistic that Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s recipe of ultra-easy monetary policy, fiscal spending and promised reforms would finally re-awaken the Japanese economy.
The government said it is ready to unleash more fiscal and monetary stimulus as needed if the sales tax, implemented on April 1 to help rein in government debt, proves more damaging to growth than expected.
“So far in April, things are down almost as much as they were the last time the tax was raised, but I think they’ll be back to normal around June,” Seven & I President Noritoshi Murata told an earnings briefing on Thursday.
“The main risk that could bring a worsening consumption environment is if the government moves too slowly to support the economy,” Murata said.
Seven & I forecast a 4.8 percent rise in operating profit to 356 billion yen ($3.43 billion) for 2014/15.
In the prior year, operating profit rose 14.9 percent, although that was mostly due to changes in accounting for depreciation. Without those, 2013/14 profit would have risen only 4.2 percent.
Japan has experienced a decade and a half of deflation, and the government’s reflationary policies implemented a year ago face their biggest test as the country’s sales tax rose to 8 percent from 5 percent this month.
Murata said the new financial year would see a “volatile consumer environment”.
“It’s up to retailers to sweep away deflation, developing products that provide more added-value,” he said.
Seven & I said operating profit at its Japan 7-Eleven chain - which makes up about 60 percent of the total - would rise 2.9 percent this business year, compared with the prior year’s 13.9 percent.
Its 7-Eleven stores in the United States, where a weak yen has boosted profitability, are forecast to show 14.6 percent profit growth this year after last year’s 34.1 percent.
The company expected the sales tax hike to cut existing store sales of its Ito Yokado supermarkets, forecasting a 3.0 percent drop this financial year, although it aimed to boost operating profit through higher-margin own-brand goods and cost reductions.
The supermarkets cut prices by 5 to 30 percent on 775 food and household items from April 1 in response to the tax hike.
For the year ended on Feb. 28, Seven & I’s operating profit rose to a record 339.66 billion yen, compared with the consensus forecast of 366.5 billion yen from 18 analysts surveyed by ThomsonReuters I/B/E/S.
Sales rose 12.8 percent to 5.63 trillion yen.
Shares of Seven & I ended 1.2 percent higher at 3,978 yen before the earnings release, compared with a 0.8 percent gain in Tokyo’s benchmark Nikkei average.
The shares have fallen nearly 5 percent since the start of the year, holding up better than the Nikkei which is down 7.5 percent.
Fellow retailers Aeon Co Ltd and Fast Retailing Co Ltd are reporting their full-year earnings next week. ($1 = 103.7200 Japanese yen) (Writing by Edmund Klamann; Editing by Christopher Cushing and Ryan Woo)

What would happen if I let the water lead the way? What would it do if I considered my materials and then let them take over? How would they react if I found the most interesting pigments I could – the ones that blended beautifully, the ones that granulated, and the ones that broke apart into several colors on the page – and I set them loose across the biggest panels I could fit in my studio?
And then I wondered what those pigments would do if I whispered to them that they didn’t need to be anything but themselves. They didn’t need to depict anything or tell any stories: they themselves were the story and they were beautiful as they were: these are not coaxed into any patterns of water or channeled into cells and outlines.

“The mere simplicity of having a rope as the only prop was just as clever as it was mesmerising.” - GLAMadelaide
Long spools of white rope run through pulley sheaves and wrap around bodies, explicitly connecting the artists’ movements above and off the ground. The actions of one acrobat affect and implicate the movements of others in a precise negotiation of cause and effect. The performers use this metaphor for connectedness to explore the give and take, balance, and dynamics of relating to one another. Leaving the realm of the solo act where the performer relies on their individual strength, our acrobats rely on the strength of the group to hold the end of the rope, keeping them aloft.
By a Thread offers rich visuals of inventive aerial acrobatics and spectacular skills from some of Australia’s best emerging circus artists. With intense training in a breadth of contemporary circus disciplines, the performers have pooled their knowledge and skills, and then exploded the traditional boundaries of these disciplines to create a show where classic techniques are used in expansive ways and new skills are made possible.
This is circus reimagined and revitalised.
Presented by Frankston Arts Centre and One Fell Swoop Circus
This show is handpicked to be in the FAC 2021 Season.

In the 60's and 70's, Paul Mooney and Richard Pryor opened doors for black comedians in America by pushing the comedy envelope all the way to the edge. When Pryor dropped his "Bill Cosby routine" and broke out the racially-charged material he's known for today, Mooney's laughter backed up him from the audience. Mooney went on to write for "Sanford And Son," "Saturday Night Live," and "In Living Color," among other shows and films, and his appearances on "Chappelle's Show" were some of the most memorable sketches. He also recently published a memoir, "Black Is The New White," which is a must-read for any comedy nerd.
We recently got to sit down with Mooney at Caroline's, where he will be performing May 27-31st, and hear his thoughts on Kagan's nomination to the Supreme Court, meeting Obama in Harlem, and working with Richard Pryor and Dave Chappelle. We also have to thank him for pointing us to this uncanny sketch from the short-lived "Richard Pryor Show" where Richard portrays the "first black president" over 30 years before Obama is elected.

Fresh off the instantly iconic turn of events in the third episode of the final season of HBO’s Succession, Brian Cox made an appearance on Stephen Colbert’s Late Show to discuss the shocking development.
*Succession Season 4 spoilers follow*
“I’m hopeless at keeping secrets,” Cox said about keeping the death of Logan Roy under wraps. “It was a triumph, an absolute triumph. I was very proud of myself.”
As seen in the clip up top, the 76-year-old revealed that the writers of Succession, in an effort to throw off paparazzi when filming Logan’s funeral, decided to film another scene in which the actor was present with the rest of the cast.
“They invented this scene that I was to play at the church. I can’t remember the church, it was uptown, very fancy, big Catholic church,” Cox explained. “What happened was I was on my way to film this scene and I got the call saying, ‘We’re so behind, and it’s a scene that will never be used because it’s your funeral, so don’t come.’ And I thought no, I’d better go. I’d better go because I know there’s going to be a lot of paparazzi there, and as sure as eggs, I went there and as soon as I got out of the car they started clicking away. So immediately I was able to put off the fact that it was my funeral.”
Watch Cox’s full appearance on Stephen Colbert’s The Late Show in the clips up top and below.

Thames Water refreshes plan for Abingdon Reservoir, despite opposition from GARD
GARD chairman Derek Stork, a former nuclear physicist, feared there was now a ‘strong possibility’ that Thames Water will favour the reservoir in its final document.
Writing in a GARD newsletter this month, he said: “They have either ignored, or over-ridden with dubious arguments, the majority of critical comments coming from stakeholders like GARD.
“Other [water] sources are less costly, less damaging to the environment, less disruptive to local communities and more robust against climate change.”
Alternative options also in the most recent shortlist include desalination plants and abstraction of water from the Lower Thames.

The AM-400 from Com-Power Corporation is an antenna mast well suited to making EMC measurements in an OATS (open air test site) or in test chambers. The height of the antenna can be varied from one to four meters during measurement as required by commercial EMC specifications. The mast is constructed using fiberglass tubes and grating material. These were chosen because they minimize signal reflections and have a high degree of immunity to deterioration from exposure to sunlight and moisture. The cross boom of the mast is a single fiberglass tube attached to a carrier assembly. The carrier assembly rides the length of the entire mast pulled by a rope and pulley mechanism attached to a motor. The cross boom has an antenna mounting adapter located on one end. The adapter has been crafted to mount antennas—including biconicals, logs, and horns. Using this adapter, the antennas can be mounted in vertical or horizontal polarization. Look for more product information at the Com-Power website. Antennas are vital to today’s increasingly wireless communications.

scored his first goal of the season to lift the New England Revolution to a 1-0 win over the Colubus Crew and into the MLS playoffs for the eighth season in a row.
Lerentowicz hammered a free kick past Crew goalkeeper Kenny Schoeni
, making his first start of the season for the Crew.
"All year I've been waiting for that,''
Larentowicz said, half-joking. "After that goal, we were able to exhale a little bit. For about four weeks we had our own destiny in our hands. Flying out here, we were talking about how we needed
this and that to happen - and it seemed so far-fetched. I was just happy to get that last chance.''
Lerentowicz's goal ended the team's 320-minute scoreless drought, the longest in
franchise history. The Revolution will face the Chicago Fire in a two-game, home-and-home series that begins Saturday at Gillette Stadium. It marks the fifth straight season that New England has met
Chicago in the MLS postseason.

Zooey Deschanel revealed her baby’s name three months after giving birth.
At the premiere of Rock the Kasbah last night, she told People that her daughter’s name was Elsie Otter. ‘Otter, like the animal,’ she clarified, in case anyone thought they’d misheard. So Zooey has actually named her daughter after a woodland creature. In the age of North West and Harper Seven, this might be the quirkiest we’ve heard yet.

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) intend to prohibit investment management companies from raising funds on the SET and the Alternative Investments Market (MAI) in order to fill gaps. regulatory loopholes and strengthen investor protection.
The SEC is holding a public hearing to gather opinions on the new regulations. The hearing ends on August 18.
Under the new guidelines, any investment management company, except financial institutions, will be prohibited from offering and listing shares on the SET and MAI.
According to the SEC, an investment firm refers to any company that invests more than 40% of its assets in securities, derivatives, or digital assets without actively managing those assets.
However, exceptions include investments to manage cash in low-risk assets, investments in an associated company that is not an investment company, and investments in an affiliated company belonging to the same holding company or partner companies that are networked for business operations, cooperation, and synergy, including companies belonging to the same value chain.
All companies listed on the SET or MAI with a passive investment of more than 40% of total assets must disclose information regarding these investments in the notes to their financial statements.
The SET plans to stipulate additional measures to ensure that listed companies comply with the new guidelines.
The SET plans to attach trading warning signs to companies that fall under the SEC’s definition of an investment management firm and set a deadline for corrective action.
If the companies do not act within the time limit, they will lose their listed status and be delisted from secondary exchanges.
After being delisted, a company will not be permitted to offer any type of security under the Securities and Exchange Act to investors or the general public unless it has obtained a waiver from the SEC.
The SEC and SET have posted hearing documents on their websites.


The Master Naturalist Class of 2012 consists of 21 volunteers who committed to a 12 week training program conducted at Fountain Rock and Catoctin Creek Nature Centers.

7. Develop a social media and marketing plan for Fountain Rock Nature Center.
8. Create an outdoor bird checklist for Fountain Rock Nature Center.
9. Develop a scavenger hunt for older children which will encourage them to learn more about our live nature center animals. Laminate related crosswords and activity sheets to include with this activity.
10. Create a family based “Quest” or scavenger hunt for both nature centers. By creating a “hunt” where various locations at each site that will highlight and expose families to specific points of interests, such as nature or historical interests. Each hunt will have a map and questions to answer about what can be found at the park they are visiting.
11. Create Girl Scout Program Outlines based on the new Girl Scout Handbook.
12. Create nature journal pages of the Master Naturalist Class field trips complete with descriptions and drawings.
13. Refresh all tree labels at Fountain Rock Nature Center by identifying tree species and placing labels at the trees.

2019 Honda Ridgeline Safety Features
Advanced Compatibility Engineering Body Structure
The Ridgeline has a deep commitment to safety that is built right into its body structure. Honda’s innovative and unique Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE) Body Structure utilizes a network of frame structures to absorb crash energy and distribute it away from the occupants. It also minimizes the amount of force transferred to the other vehicle involved, keeping everyone safer.
Airbags, Seatbelts, and Locks
The Ridgeline includes a long list of passive safety features—including airbags, seatbelts, and locks—that may go unnoticed at first glance but are there when you need them most.
- Advanced Front Airbags
- SmartVent Front Side Airbags
- Side Curtain Airbags with Rollover Sensor
- Three-Point Seat Belts at all Seating Positions
- Front Three-Point Seat Belts with Automatic Tensioning System
- Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren (LATCH)
- Driver’s and Front Passenger’s Seat-Belt Reminder
- Child-Proof Rear Door Locks
Active Safety Features
Safety meets performance with the many active safety features in the Ridgeline. These features help the Ridgeline maintain good tractive control with the road, come to a complete stop more quickly in an emergency braking situation, and ensure that the Ridgeline is clearly visible to other drivers.
- Vehicle Stability Assist with Traction Control
- Anti-Lock Braking System
- Electronic Brake Distribution
- Brake Assist
- Tire Pressure Monitoring System with Tire Fill Assist
- Daytime Running Lights
Multi-Angle Rearview Camera with Guidelines
Every model of the Ridgeline comes equipped with a multi-angle rearview camera that allows drivers to check their surroundings before backing up. And with guidelines as a standard feature and dynamic guidelines as an upgrade on the upper trim levels, drivers can maneuver in and out of tight spaces with ease. The camera includes three different angles, each offering an optimal view for different situations.
- Normal View – Check for a clear path behind the Ridgeline before reversing.
- Wide View – This wider view allows drivers to see vehicles, pedestrians, or cyclists who may be approaching from the rear.
- Top-Down View – Especially helpful when parallel parking
Standard on the RTL-T trim is Honda LaneWatch which utilizes a small camera mounted on the passenger’s side mirror to monitor activity in the driver’s blind spot. The camera displays a live video feed on the eight-inch audio touchscreen when a right lane change is signaled. Drivers can see up to four times more than using the mirrors alone.
Honda Sensing is a suite of driver-assistive technology features that help drivers see more, do more, and drive safely on the road. The package comes standard on the RTL-E and Black Edition and includes systems that warn, prevent, and mitigate impacts.
- Collision Mitigation Braking System – If a vehicle or other object is dangerously approaching the Ridgeline, this system can engage the brakes to mitigate any impact.
- Road Departure Mitigation System – If the Ridgeline rolls over lane lines or road markings, this system can engage the brakes and steering to prevent the Ridgeline from running off the road.
- Forward Collision Warning – Front sensors detect when an oncoming vehicle is dangerously approaching the Ridgeline and warns the driver to take swift action.
- Lane Departure Warning – If the Ridgeline begins to sway out of its lane on the highway, this system will warn the driver to correct the steering.
- Lane Keeping Assist System – If the Lane Departure Warning goes on unheeded, this system nudges the steering to bring the Ridgeline back into the center of the lane.
- Adaptive Cruise Control – Drivers select their desired speed and distance from the vehicle ahead, and this system naturally adjusts to the changes in the flow of traffic.
More Safety Throughout the Trim Levels
As drivers explore the upper trim levels, there are even more safety technology features to note. A Blind Spot Information System upgrades Honda LaneWatch as a way to monitor blind spot activity, and a navigation system features voice recognition so drivers can give instructions without taking their hands off the wheel.
- Auto High-Beam Headlights
- Blind Spot Information System with Cross Traffic Monitor
- Speed-Sensitive Volume Control
- Honda Satellite-Linked Navigation System with Voice Recognition
- Smart Entry with Walk-Away Auto Lock
