I had the table ground on my Hardinge mill a few years ago, after scraping the bottom flat to within .0002". The table warped .002". I was not happy. the grinder claimed he used coolant, but somehow I doubt he used enough... It took me another two weekends to rescrape top and bottom. That table is about the size as the cross slide on your 61. Its strange how grinders say "its the natural stresses in the iron relieving themselves", but I find that when I scrape metal off, even .010", I see absolutely no change in the overall geometry of the part. I think its the heat.
The cross slide will be sent out to have the top ground, my grinder is to small for the width, and then I'll reverify the slides for flatness.
04-07-2009, 06:38 PM
Dave- Thanks for the warning/heads up. I'll ask the grinder about that, especially since I just scraped the guiding dovetail slide. I ground the cross slide of my '62 EE, and several other pieces of CI, wet and not had that problem.
Set up for scraping the cross slide's guiding dovetail slide. Needed to get the slide in such position that I could see it, and not stand on my head.
The 3 holes on the right are for the cross feed nut. The 2 outer are for the screws, the center is an oil galley that oils the nut and screw. There is a hole on the headstock side, that is visible in an earlier picture, with a grease fitting. The hole to the left of the 3, is for the TA's drawbar clamping screw.
Different style of scraper blade. I tried a short straight blade, but there was interference between the cross slide, the BIAX and my knuckles. Probably a good thing, the scraping seemed to go a lot easier.

Do you see light at the end of the tunnel or is that just a train Was, is this, more than you expected or did you go off on a tangent with getting this "tuned up"?
04-07-2009, 08:26 PM
I am absolutely loving these pictures! Even if you're not excited about posting them, I sure am excited to see them. I find watching someone else work on their projects is almost better than me working on mine. It would be no contest if I could eliminate the guilt I feel taking up so much time on the computer when I could be working.
And as far as MY wife is concerned, she is in the shop regularly, and is a great pair of extra hands. Last week, she spent several hours cleaning old grease/tar our of the saddle of my lathe, while I scraped paint. She almost acts as an enabler at times, though mostly through her neutrality on the subject of me buying tools/machines.
04-07-2009, 09:59 PM
I see light at the end of the tunnel, but it seems like it's taking forever. Right now I'm at a section that eats time, scraping always does, but it needs to be done. This is SOP, in my shop, when a lathe is a keeper, from a lesson I learned 30 something years ago. I'll elaborate on this, in a few days, when I get the verbage correct.
The straight edge proved to be a little more difficult than I was expecting, and the dovetail a little easier.

In my post of 4-6, the caption for the last picture with the level checking the cross slide ways needs to be qualified. The last part about being parallel to the bed ways in both directions would apply if this were a full reconditioning job, ie; the bed scraped or ground, the carriage slides reconditioned, etc, etc. THIS IS NOT A FULL RECONDITIONING JOB.
I started then stopped, scraping the cross slide ways today, and reconducted the survey. The results are the same, what has changed is that I determined that the level readings are mostly the result of wear in the carriage slides. Yes, there is wear in the cross slide ways, and that also contributes to the level readings, but I also checked the height from the top of the dovetails to the cross slide flat ways, and those readings were fairly constant. The different readings I got, did not jump out a say this is excessive, in fact they showed very little difference from side to side or front to back. They basically agreed across the board, so to speak. This caused me to stop and re-evaluate my earlier objective, and to consider the results had I persued that course. My conclusion was that I would be making things much worse, especially in regards to the cross feed screw alignment, plus a lot of additional scraping, not counting the problems with fitting the gib.
I will still use the level as a rough control, but I will not rely on it as the sole arbiter. I will use the cross slide, and the height from the top of the dovetail to the flat ways, as the primary arbiter.
Fortunately, I had only done about 3 scraping cycles, so no great harm was done.
04-11-2009, 05:01 PM
After consulting with the grinder about the issues that Dave(rimcanyon) raised, about warpage, I decided that it was still in my best interests to get the cross slide ground. I concluded that it was far easier to correct a minor warp rather than scraping .006-.008" off the top. Yesterday he picked it up, today it came back, and the bill was a little over half of the original quote(surprise, surprise, that's never happened before). I conducted 2 tests on each side, the swivel test on the surface plate, and with the DTI. The ground side did not swivel, and the DTI was within .0002", the slide side had a bit of swivel, but the DTI was still .0002". I found the high spot approx in the middle of both sslides and scraped them out. The high spots showed up as bright spots on the scraped surface, and it was relatively easy to see them and pin point scrape them off.
The ground top of the cross slide. I don't particularily care for the feed stripes, but they will less noticable in a few months. The grinder followed my instructions to the letter. I told him to clean it up until the compound rest area way area way good. If the ends don't clean up, don't worry about it. It is flat, there is no warping, bowing, etc.
While I was waiting for the return of the cross slide, I scraped the the swivel slide of the compound rest, and got started on the compound top's slides. This is about the 7th cycle on the top's slides. When I started the spotting was only on the 4 corners.

30 Something Years Ago
30 something years ago when this was still a hobby, I learned a valuable lesson that has stayed with me, in fact it is SOP in my shop. Whenever I buy a "new" lathe, the carriage and cross slide gets checked out and scraped if necessary. This is all about the ability to cut/part off successfully.
When I was young and dumb, I was trying to cut off in an Atlas 6" lathe, which was essentually brand new. I wasn't having any success at all. I asked a machinist friend if he could help. He took one look at the lathe, used it a bit, and said it needed scraping in. I asked about scraping, and he gave me a very brief description. It went over my head. A while later I bought a 9" South Bend and Connelly's book "Machine Tool Reconditioning". I didn't know what MTR was about, but I read and reread the book and various sections several times until I felt that this was something I could do. I reworked the carriage on the SB, fortunately it wasn't in bad shape, made a square tool post for it, and tried cutting off. What an eye opener, no problems. I quickly found the limits of the SB, and as long as I worked within those limits, no problems. I then took another look at the Atlas, and noticed as I was in feeding, there were oil drops/bubbles coming from under the cross slide. I took the cross slide apart and spotted it on the surface plate, and only 3 corners barely had any blueing. I scraped the entire cross slide assembly as well as the carriage slides, reassembled the lathe, made a square toolpost and tried cutting off. Another eye opener.
I had tried all the remedies that we've read about here and on HSM. Not one of them worked, and yet I keep reading the same crap, all these years later. I guess nobody has investigated the root cause of the problem, rigidity, nor cares too. Scraping is not the total answer to the cutting off problems, but it is the biggest contributor to success, IMO. I have never been able to consistently grind a cut off blade, and still can't, which is the next biggest problem, but I solved that problem with inserts.
I've told a modified version of this story a couple of times in the BBS's, but I guess it's not the easy way.
My friends get on me about my workup procedures, and I explain my reasoning, but all I get are rolled eyes, and "hell, just put it back together and make chips". One of them is/was a machine shop owner, he told me his machinists couldn't cut off, so they just cut the parts long on the saw, and go from there. He came into my shop one day while I cutting off, and was amazed to see the results. I told him the same story. He had bought all new machines, and his machinists couldn't cut off. Go figure.
I've moved on since the Atlas and South Bend, and these Monarchs, Pacemakers, L&S's, etc, etc., are in a different class. I don't think I would have to many problems using the machines as recieved, but I'm not interested in problems after the machine is up and running.
04-12-2009, 02:24 PM
Harry, regarding your compound. On all of the used lathes I have owned, both near to new condition to heavily worn, the compounds have not shown any sign of much use at all. There has been almost no backlash, no grooves worn in the slides, gibs not worn at all or adjustments showing any tightening.
I have never tried spotting the compounds slide surfaces in , so don't know if this would be possible or not.
Is it possible Monarch machined your compounds slides so they would "wear in" before they "wear out", thus increasing the life span of the slides and the machine?
I have noticed this on the slide surfaces of the carriage on my Harrison L6. I.E. the wings of the saddle and the oil grooves in the slide surfaces show contact wear in the ends of the saddle, both headstock and tailstock ends, but none in the middle 2'3 rds of the slide surfaces.
This makes me wonder if it was not fitted this way at the factory?
04-12-2009, 03:44 PM
I've heard those claims for years. They are akin to the tailstocks being left high to allow for wear. I'm not familiar with the manufacturers practices regarding this, but it reminds me of a line from the Brit-Com "Are You Being Served"- it'll ride up with wear. IMO, it's a croc. I had a Harrison L-6 and did not notice the carriage slides having partial contact like yours. I have noticed on Monarchs, South Bends and some others that there is not 100% carriage slide contact, the area under the bridge being non-bearing, but the rest of the slide bearing. The Harrison has a very short carriage bearing on the bed, compared to the SB, and definitely the Monarchs; maybe this is what you're observing.
With regard to what I'm seeing on this compound, I don't think what I started with can be totally attributed to wear, perhaps there is a bit of age related stress relieving, or maybe there was a lot short movements. I'm just dealing with what I find. I wasn't planning on doing the swivel or the compound, it's already been painted, but I had a little free time, and thought I'd check it out. Now, I got a little extra to do. Go looking for trouble, and I'll find it.
With regard to the screw backlash, there is a lot in these Monarch compounds. Almost has to be, considering that the nut is part of the casting. This is not something that has bothered me with the CK, or the CY.
04-12-2009, 05:47 PM
As I have said before in this forum, I spent my teen years wondering why I couldn't do a decent cutoff with my 9" Logan, bought new. An old timer said the same thing about my Logan that you said about your lathe, that it looked like there was sufficient area in the slides, but the fit was poor. With my R15 Sheldon, also bought new, I just make sure the cutting oil is going the right place, hit the power feed and let 'er rip. The only problem I have had is a tendency to bend the cutoff blade toward the chuck a little, maybe .030" cutting off a 4.5" 6061T6 bar. I get the same effect with a HSS blade or an insert. If you really want to chogie with a HSS blade, grind a step in each side, just enough that you get three narrow chips, so they don't jam in the groove. I grind them on a two axis sine chuck on a surface grinder. You have to put in the clearances just like any other tool, so it takes a while, but it pays off in production.
04-14-2009, 06:59 PM
I find far more productive to use carbide inserts, I don't have to grind them. I don't do much cutting off on the engine lathes anymore, but I do run these inserts hard in the turret lathes. I can always tell when the insert is getting dull, the cut starts curving. Really gets interesting when you're cutting off 2-1/2" D 1018 at 734 RPM and the inserts starts acting up. Those Manchester inserts ain't cheap.
Spotting the top slide ways, about the 7th cycle. When I started the spotting closely matched the bare area in the 2nd picture of my 4-11 post. Every so often I will check the parallelism on the surface plate. The spotting sequence used the the top slide's slide for 2 cycles, then an angled straight edge for 2 cycles, to get ubder the dovetail. This spoting was done with the top slide. You can see where the tapered gib goes on the left side. It was finished about cycles later.
Checking the parallelism of the guided dovetail way to the guiding dovetail way, which was scraped earlier. I made the dovetail block that the mag base is on, when I did the same check on the 12" CK 6 years ago. The dovetail has 2 raised pads that contact the dovetail face. Notice the nut that is partially obscured by the knob.
I forgot that I took this picture of the raised pads. I used a die grinder to get rid of the excess material after I cut the dovetail.
About the 4th cycle, also a better view of the integral nut. The left side needs approx .0015" scraped off to obtain parallelism. As this prgresses the spotting will start increasing to the right.
Spotting the tapered gib, the gib is held in postion with the block and 3 nails. The big punch is used to seat the gib, firmly, in the assembled compound rest. The smaller punch is used to remove the gib after spotting. The gib was finished about 3 cycles later.
The compound rest is ready for the cross slide. The last operation was surface grinding the top for the toolpost. Size is a little decieving, the top slide is approx 12" long, the swivel base is approx 8-1/4" D X 10"+ long. The compound rest assembly weighs 49 LBS and the cross slide weighs 55 LBS.

This is a nice charter to a book here. I realize that it is not a full reconditioning but it is certainly a lot farther than I will have time to do to my Monarch. I really enjoy this thread and want to thank you for it.
04-15-2009, 07:26 PM
I have searched for words in the past when presented with your situation, and I just don't know what to say except to wish the best.
I'm glad you are enjoying this topic, and I think you will really enjoy your Monarch. When they are "tuned up", there's not much that can touch them.
Todays post is a bit complicated. I'll start by saying that Monarch works with some very tight clearances, where you least expect them, at least on this particular lathe.
The original clearance between the cross slide and the carriage in the area between the dovetails must have been no more than .003". The cross slide was in contact with the top of the dovetail ways. In addition the wear difference between the headstock way side and the tailstock way side, was about .002", as measured from the top of the dovetails to the ways with a dial depth gauge, and very consistent. I know I didn't scrape off very much on the cross slide's slide to get them flat, the time was spent in getting them into shape to use as straight edges.
Once I discovered the that above contact was being made, the hard part was deciding which way to attack this problem. One avenue was to remove the material, about .015" from the top of the carriage, but that would have necessiatated the removal the carriage, or scraping it off, and reworking the TA drawbar, none of which I was not interested in doing. The other avenue was to remove the material from the inside of the cross slide, which is the avenue I chose.
The first spotting of the cross slide ways with the cross slide. This is definitely not what I expected to see. There was no spotting on the headstock side of the ways. This was when I discovered the contact between the cross slide and the carriage, and was not scraped.
The cross slide set up on the #4 Cincinnati for removing approx .015" from the interior to provide the clearance. This will require 3 passes, and one reset of the cross slide for the tapered gib side. There is a fly cutter in the holder, that cuts a 3"D approx.
The center cut has been made, and this is getting the guiding dovetail side. The cross slide was reset for the guided side to account for the tapered gib.
This is the first spotting with the reworked cross slide. Notice the big difference in the spotting pattern on the guided side, from today's first picture. There is some spotting on the guiding side, mostly under the dovetail. I've darkened the picture some, and you've really got to look for the spotting. It's mostly next to the dovetail's edge.
The picture is a little blurred, but this is how I get the cross slide on the ways to spot without cutting off fingers. It ain't easy.
Progress is being made. This is about the 9th cycle. To speed things up a bit, I used the angled straight edge for several spottings on the tailstock side to get the bulk of the material off and to equalize the heights between the 2 sides. The rest of the spottings will be to improve the bearing surface, and will mostly be done using the cross slide. Checking with the depth gauge, it's closer than it looks.
04-15-2009, 09:46 PM
I know this is a loaded question but, how long would it take somebody who has good bench work skills ie filing and such to feel comfortable scraping in a productive manner?
04-15-2009, 10:29 PM
You're right, that is a loaded question. Don't know.
I don't consider myself to be a particularly productive scraper, I don't have any deadlines to meet. I don't think my scraping is particularly pretty, but I manage to get very accurate machines when I'm done. I think coming up with a sequence of events is very important, and having the necessary tools is also high on the list. Ad libbing something, or getting in a "hurry", can be costly in time wasted. That's happened a time, or two.
04-16-2009, 07:36 PM
One thing I forgot to mention about scraping gibs, is to make sure both sides are checked. There can be slight changes in the dovetail angles, after they have been scraped.
Got the flat ways finished up today, sorry no picture, the spotting was too faint to show up. I could hardly see it, but it was there. The cross slide is out of parallel to the bed ways by about .0015" longitudinally and .005" transversely, from what I could determine using the level
The next step is to take care of the guiding dovetail way, which has to be square to the spindle to .0005" concave/12". This necessiated the mounting of the 4 jaw, and indicating a parallel to be square. This is done by rotating the chuck 180*, and making any necessary adjustments so that a 0-0 reading is obtained. This is also means I have to mount the job crane to mount the chuck.
Don't laugh at my crane, I'm not exactly tickled with it, and I do need to remount the winch so that I can get rid of the bucket to stand on.
Indicating the parallel. I had to put a .0015" shim under the parallel to get the 0-0 reading.
I also made sure the parallel's face was square, you will get false readings if it isn't.
The test is done by starting the cross slide in the above position and moving it to the rea in this picture. It's convex about .005". I've got a lot of scraping to do. The BIAX isn't the easiest tool for me to use when I half standing on my head trying to see what I'm doing. I just may have to use the hand scraper.
04-16-2009, 10:38 PM
Harry, I've been enjoying this series a lot. Especially since your progress is so rapid. By comparison, I started on my fp2 about 6 weeks ago, and have only got the column and one of the headstock ways done - I still have the knee and saddle to go. For me, it will be a 4 month project to recondition a machine, but I only get to work on average one day each weekend. If I am lucky. Another thing I have enjoyed seeing in your pictures is something it has taken me a long time to learn: the right amount of spotting compound. I tend to use too little, and it makes the scraping take much longer, since I am working only the highest spots. Thanks for all the pictures and progress reports.
04-19-2009, 10:59 AM
It's taken me a long time to learn the right amount of marking compound to use, and I have to relearn it every time I do a machine. I use the Canode product, and I learned not to apply too much, I only get smeared spottings, so I use less and recharge the surface plate, straight edge, or template more often. I become very stingy on the recharge as I get nearer to the finish, don't need any oops.
The scraping of the dovetails is very difficult, physically. It's very hard to see what I'm doing, and I'm twisted like a pretzel. I'm not able to do this for long periods with out taking some breaks, and letting my back relax. Don't need any back spasms, and I came dangerously close yesterday while moving the cross slide from the lathe to the bench. The BIAX is more a hindrance than a help; I have a very hard time controlling it, so I'm using the hand scraper to do these dovetails.
The progress is very slow for the time spent. I've checked and rechecked my clearances, thinking I'm getting some interference somewhere, I've tried the red Canode, hoping to see the spotting better, which was less visible, so back to the blue. I've checked the guiding slide of the cross slide, which I'm using to spot the dovetail way, and improved it's bearing surface, etc., etc.
I did do one check of parallelism/squareness from the guided dovetail way which was very revealing, and truly surprising. That way needs some attention, but I did get what appears to be a 0-0 reading for squareness. The tapered surface for the gib in the cross slide appeared to have a crown in it when I indicated it in on the mill the other day, that will be rechecked soon.
This is about the 7th spotting of the guiding dovetail way. At this point about .003" of material has been removed from the 1st 18" or so. After this spotting the progress gets extremely slow.
This is about 5 cycles later, and the spotting is mostly staying on the end and very sparse isolated high spots. This is one of the exceptions. There is still about .0015" to go.
The first 2 pictures were taken Friday, this is from late Saturday morning just before I called it quits for the day. This is about 10 or so cycles later, after a fresh coating of spotting compound was applied. It looks encouraging, but is a bit to heavy to be reliable. It was very lightly scraped, and probably shouldn't have been. The very next spotting showed very few high spots, which are mostly on the end. At this point the way is only few tenths from 0-0 and I should start woking on bearing surface(as if I haven't).
04-22-2009, 09:11 PM
After my last post, I figured getting this CS scraped in would be a "piece of cake", how wrong I was.
I fell into the trap the Dave(rimcanyon) mentioned, not using enough marking compound on the tool. When I'm very close to finishing way, or slide, I don't want a lot of compound on the spotting tool, and the nearer I get, the less I want. When circumstances require, I do recharge the tool, but I'm stingy. As this worked out, I had 0-0 readings on Monday using the CS as the spotting tool, however if I used the small dovetail block things were a little different. The block showed what I think were 0-0 readings but the needle was bouncing all over the place from -1, -2, +2, etc, etc, in no particular order. What I determined was happening was that the block was reacting to all the surface irregularities, and needed further improvement. In addition when I recharged the tool, I would get some questionable spotting, with one basic result. I would get spotting like you see in the picture below, but on the next cycle, the spotting would mostly be on the rear half, behind the oil slot, with a very few spots on the front half. Being the optimist, I continued this routine for some time thinking that the next spotting would be it, after all I very close. Eventually I figured out that I was victim of my own optimism. There were a couple of factors that contributed to this; I was scraping in a very awkward position and could not see to full advantage what I was doing, the lighting was not the best, and I had to take breaks and give my back a rest.(I was contorting myself in ways I thought had vanished years ago, old dogs relearning old tricks). Once I figured out what was going on, I took corrective actions and things improved.
As I progressed, the indicators readings using the small block settled down to a stable +- .0005" or less, and very stable 0-0 readings. The readings with the CS stayed at 0-0 through out. Once I was satisfied that the guiding way as good as I could get it, without spending a great deal of additional time, I turned my attention to the guided dovetail way. The small block indicator reading were a surprise, they were basically 0-0, with a few minor glitches. 3 scraping cycles and all was good.
The picture below, the spotting looks pretty evenly spread, but the next cycle was as described above. This picture was taken yesterday.
Just checking to see what lies ahead. The CS nut is attached to the CS, the gib is reasonably tight, and the screw turns easily, all things considered. The gib does need to be blocked out approx .030", and I can't figure out why yet. I didn't remove that much material, and the gib doesn't look that bad. In fact the gib had a lot built up goo on the side next to the CS. I can only think the gib was backed off, and rendered mostly useless for its intended purpose.

Seeking the Good in a Difficult Good Friday
Today is Good Friday, which is observed around the world. It commemorates Jesus Christ’s sacrifice, his passion, crucifixion, and death.
Right now, all of us are making sacrifices due to the coronavirus with social distancing and stay-at-home orders. We’re unable to see our loved ones or take part in traditional observances.
Then there are those who are risking the most important thing – their lives – to take care of us. The first responders, our EMTs, policeman, firemen and medical personnel are on the front lines of this pandemic. There are also those essential workers who are keeping our lives running: utility, garbage and city workers, those who deliver food, fill our prescriptions and check us out at the grocery store.
Many jobs have also been sacrificed and savings lost.
All may seem a little bleak now. Perhaps for all of us – even non-believers, this Good Friday is keenly felt. For Christians, Good Friday is a time of sorrow and mourning and reflection. And aren’t we all feeling that right now? Mourning the loss of our normal lives and routines. Forced into a period of reflection brought on by lives that have shed their everyday anchors, feeling fearful and uncertain…for now.
Just two days from now is the promise of Easter, which celebrates the resurrection of Jesus. Though things may feel bleak and uncertain now, this crisis will eventually be behind us. There are better days ahead. And the promise of Easter awaits.

HoYoverse has been ramping up Genshin Impact live events in Southeast Asia.
The developer recently announced they will be hosting the Genshin Impact SEA Carnival in Malaysia this December, an invitational competition where teams of Travelers from all over the region will compete in various challenges for a cut of a US$10,000 prize pool.
There was also HoYo Fest 2022, which ran from 28 September to 6 November, an annual live event hosted by HoYoverse across the world to celebrating its games and their communities in Singapore, the Philippines, Malaysia, and other Southeast Asian countries.
Genshin Impact is currently in version 3.2, which will run until 6 December.
Genshin Impact versions 3.0, 3.1, and 3.2 will have shortened run times of five weeks instead of the usual six weeks, likely to catch up to the game's original release schedule after the release of version 2.7 was delayed back in April.

Making collages can be a fun and satisfying artistic endeavour that lets even the most clumsy artist create beautiful and unique works of art. Finding interesting collage materials can take your ideas and make them a truly individualised art form that can highlight your personal style. Coloured road maps are easy to find and offer the collage artist an inexpensive medium and an interesting textural material to work with. Take the map-collage another step further by using historical maps and antiqued world maps in your piece. Ready to get started? Let's go!
- Skill level:
- Moderately Easy
Other People Are Reading
Things you need
- A variety of coloured maps including road maps and world maps
- 1 Pre-stretched canvas
- Black acrylic paint
- Modge Podge or other collage medium
- Paint brushes
- Water containers
Gather your materials. Get a bunch of old road maps from family and friends, and search through sources like Goodwill to find cheap map books with terrific world and topical maps you can use. National Geographic magazine is another terrific resource, so take your time and gather plenty of maps to work with for your collage.
Prepare your canvas. Paint a solid black background on your pre-stretched canvas (size is your choice) with acrylic paints. This will help "fill" in the spots between layers of maps and help make your piece look fuller and more cohesive. Let dry fully.
Rip your old maps into irregular shapes or cut into geometric shapes depending on your personal collage style.
Begin applying map pieces to your black background using your collage medium. Modge Podge or other collage shellac will adhere your maps to the canvas and help create a sheen on the finished project. Layer and angle your map pieces until the canvas is filled then go over with a final coat of collage shellac.
Allow to dry and display.
Tips and warnings
- Use old maps from antique or vintage books for a rich colour and cohesive theme display.

Professor Charles Limoli, Department of radiation oncology at the University of California, Irvine, said radiation therapy is the standard of care for most brain cancers, but the side effects can be devastating.
"In almost every instance, people experience severe cognitive impairment that is progressive, debilitating and adversely impacts quality of life," he said. "Pediatric cancer patients can experience a drop of up to three IQ points per year."
In the current study, Limoli and colleagues subjected rats to cranial irradiation and followed up two days later with human neural stem cell transplants. A significant proportion of these cells survived and turned into brain cells found at one- and four-month evaluations. Cognitive function significantly improved compared with control rats.
Limoli said the findings of this study were significant, and may help pave the way for a human safety trial to be conducted within a few years if appropriate funding can be secured. Neural stem cells like those used in this study do not present the same ethical questions as embryonic stem cells.

Today I have a fun Baby Boy Paper Bag album that I created for my cousin’s precious baby James David Prouty. My cousin has decorated his baby room in green, burnt orange and chocolate. It was so much fun to make an album in these colors. I just went thru all my stash of papers, stickers and embellishments and picked out everything that matched and then started cutting papers to fit my paper bag album.
I used Tombow’s Mono Adhesive Power Bond to put the album together. I like the extra strength of this adhesive and use it on my albums. For the ribbons, I used Mono Adhesive Dots, Roller. There are lots of pages and photos. I hope you enjoy viewing them all.
I typed his name on cardstock, then punched with an oval word punch, then ribbon cut the ends.
Here is an angle view of the whole album:
And here are the inside pages:

Sperling Says U.S. Economic Recovery Still Has ‘Long Way to Go’
Gene Sperling, the head of the White House’s National Economic Council, said that even as the U.S. economy has shown “signs of healing,” the progress of the expansion hasn’t been sufficient.
“We haven’t come far enough” and the drop in the jobless rate has a “long way to go,” Sperling said at a National Association for Business Economics meeting in New York today.

The wheel hub is directly connected to the axle shaft or is an extension of the same. The inner end of the axle shaft is splined and is supported by the final drive unit, whereas the outer end is supported by a single bearing inside the axle casing. In this case, the axle shaft is supposed to take the vehicle weight, driving torque, braking torque, and end thrust.
The loads listed above are taken by the axle shaft. The vehicle load is transmitted to each of the half shafts through the casing and the bearing. This causes a bending load and a tendency to shear. Besides, the side forces also cause end thrust and bending moment in the axle shafts, which have to take the driving torque also. The semi-floating axle is the simplest and cheapest of all types, and hence is widely used on cars.
This type is a very robust one and is used in heavy vehicles. The axle shafts have flanges at the outer ends, which are connected to the flanged sleeve by means of bolts. There are two taper roller bearings supporting the axle casing in the hub, which take up any side load. Thus in this the axle shafts carry only the driving torque.
The weight of the vehicle and the end thrust are not carried by them, the weight is completely supported by the wheels and the axle casing. As the axle shafts carry only the driving torque, their failure or removal does not affect the wheels. Thus the axle shafts can be taken out or replaced without jacking up the vehicle. For the same reason, the vehicle can be towed even with a broken half-shaft. However, it is the costliest type.
THREE QUARTER FLOATING AXLE
This is a compromise between the more robust full floating type and the simplest semi-floating type. In this, the bearing is located between the axle casing and the hub instead of between the axle casing and the shaft as in the case of a semi-floating axle.
As is clear from the figure, the axle shafts do not have to withstand any shearing or bending actions due to the weight of the vehicle, which are taken up by the axle casing through the hub and the bearing, provided the bearing lies in the plane of the road wheel. However, it has to take the end loads and the driving torque.
At one time this type of axle was popular in cars and light commercial vehicles. However, with improvements in design, materials, and fabrication techniques, cheaper and simple semi-floating axles are being preferred these days over the three-quarter floating types.
Inspect each tooth for any pitting or broken tip on the crown wheel, pinion, sun gear, and planetary pinion. Measure the teeth on the crown and pinion to find out the differential reduction.

Driven yield is what we call the sum total of your field’s potential yield. In order to calculate driven yield we look at multiple data points including:
We use a software program that analyzes all of your unique data and then produces a detailed report and map of your field, with each sector’s unique growing conditions outlined.
Your driven yield report includes a high-low yield goal that serves as a starting point for decisions regarding inputs and planting. Instead of a blanket recommendation, you’ll receive a report for each field that includes variable rate prescriptions for fertilizer and seeding. This means that you’ll be able to hyper-target your inputs and get the most profit out of every square foot of soil.

One of the most wonderful things we can enjoy in the Ibiza island are its incredible sunsets on the west side of the island. The colors of the sky and water at sunset are a truly magical spectacle. You can't miss them!!
Below we recommend the best places to enjoy this show:
Cala Conta. The best sunset in the world
There are those who say that the best sunset in the world is the one seen from this cove. It has a small ravine from which the view is truly spectacular. As we usually say, “postcard”. We are missing the postcard of this sunset...Send us yours to our Facebook?
Kumharas, in Sant Antoni
It is one of the most beautiful chill-out places on the island. Located in the bay of San Antonio with a privileged location facing the sea, its hippie atmosphere, its shops, its music and its people make it one of the most charming places to watch the sunset.
It has an Asian restaurant and a series of shows, DJs, etc. take place every day... You can see their program in this link.
Sunset in Ibiza – Photo by Steve Straiton
Now a mythical place on the island to enjoy the Ibizan sunset. It is a bar on the seashore of San Antonio where you can see the incredible sunset while enjoying a good cocktail, of course with a select chill-out session, another of the differentiating aspects of the place. In fact, Café del Mar has a program that airs on weekends on EuropaFM.
Benirràs and the hippie drums
This beach is very famous on the island due to its hippie atmosphere and completely natural environment. On the horizon is the Cap Bernat islet that contributes to the idyllic nature of the scene. As the sun disappears into the Mediterranean Sea, the famous “drum festival” that accompanies its “sinking” takes place.
These are our recommendations, but There are other places such as Cala D'Hort, Cala Bassa, Cala Salada or La Isla de Es Vedrà where you can also enjoy magical shows.
For you, what is the best sunset in Ibiza?

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa (CBS2/FOX28) -- A report released by AAA with information given from researchers by a team at the University of Iowa's National Advanced Driving Simulator (NADS) shows advanced driver assistance systems have the ability to prevent 2.7 million crashes if installed on all vehicles. In addition to crashes, they can prevent 1.1 million injuries and close to 9,500 deaths, but researchers are finding those numbers can only be achieved if drivers are well-educated on their systems.
"The Insurance Institute of Highway Safety is showing about a 50% reduction in rear-end collisions," said Dr. Daniel McGehee, the director at the National Advanced Driving Simulator.
Research done at the National Advanced Driving Simulator shows automatic emergency braking and forward collision warning systems are estimated to be able to prevent 1.9 million crashes and more than 4,000 deaths. When taking a survey from drivers, researches noted one of the issues is that drivers confuse these assisted systems with automated systems, where everything is done by the vehicle itself. While technology is headed in the autonomous direction, it's not the case yet.
"You never know when the system might fail. You always need to be ready to take over," said Cher Carney, a senior research associate at the National Advanced Driving Simulator.
The research teams says each system has its own limitations. Many of the systems that use sensors cannot accurate detect vehicles passing when driving at very high speeds. It's why drivers using assisted systems are encouraged to continue using the technology as if they were still driving themselves, instead of depending on the car to act autonomously.
"Their job is still to drive the car. These systems can help assist them in driving," said Dr. McGehee.
Within a few years, researchers say manufactures will build all vehicles with some of these systems. Dr. McGehee says one good way to learn about any limitations is to read a car's manual.

One of my favorite things about celebrating the 4th of July is watching the spectacular fireworks show that the city of Portland puts on. In this video, I’m going to show you how easy it is to combine the best fireworks explosions into a single photo using ON1 Photo RAW 2017.5. The result will be a memorable medley of light and color that you’ll want to share with family and friends.
It’s so important for photographers to have a good grasp of what ideal conditions are for the type of photography you are setting out to create. When I’m heading to a waterfall, all I can think about is having a socked in, overcast, grey sky with a little rain. As far as I’m concerned, that’s some of the best shooting conditions for my surroundings in the Pacific Northwest and when those conditions are present during a shoot, I am completely in my element.
Admittedly, I don’t visit my family back in New York City nearly as often as I’d like to. One thing leads to another and the next thing I know, half a year has gone by. So, when I do get the opportunity to visit, I want to make the most of the time I have with them. Recently, I was able to fly out to NYC for a few days of downtime. On one of those days, my sister and I spent all of it roaming around various parts of downtown Brooklyn, which was a wonderful change of pace seeing as we normally default to visiting Manhattan.
I’ll never forget the first time I visited Little Zig Zag Falls, located near the base of Mt. Hood in Oregon. On one hand, the winding trail and creek that leads you from the parking area to the waterfall is absolutely stunning.
Of all the places I’ve photographed and all the extreme weather conditions I’ve been in, I never would have guessed that one of the most challenging locales to create photos in would be an ice cave in Iceland. I had the good fortune to photograph a handful of ice caves during my very first trip there and, next to seeing the northern lights for the first time, this was something I was most excited for.
Of all the ways you can edit your photos, one of the most powerful and creative has to be blend modes. In fact, blend modes are some of the oldest tools that you would find even in Adobe Photoshop, predating actual layers!
Have you noticed a trend going on over the past few years where more and more images are leaning towards that retro look? Whether it’s applying your favorite one-click preset phone or working on multiple layers to get that precise look, more and more photographers are going gaga over retro and it’s not hard to see why.
It’s crazy to think that we’re approaching four years since I first launched ON1 Perfect Inspiration. Each week, we published a new episode with the goals of expanding your creative reach and helping you get the most out of your photography using ON1’s suite of editing software.

Our tour guide Willie was fantastic. I took a group of 18 students, and I was a bit disappointed that we waited 30-40 minutes at the Pier 39 stop and the GG Bridge stop for a bus to come along.

although this product is wonderful in design it falls short in coverage as a hobby light. The light is far to dim to use as a craft light unless you have another light to light up surrounding desk or bench. It lights up only the smallest part you are working on, if that is what you are looking for then it is a great product.Read More
I gave this as a gift and he was very impressed, It works great and it very nice qualityRead More
Works great. Very helpful for beading and jewelry making.Read More
the lamp is not made of quality materials, the on/off switch doesn't work like it should, and when the light does come on, it is too dim to do any good. we tried to return the product and found that to be very difficult and expensive.Read More
My husband started tying fishing flies, so he was having a hard time seeing. I looked on overstock & found this lamp. He loves the lamp plus it has a magnifier so he can see all the little details.Read More
This light is just what I was looking for. I needed light bright enough for my needlework that would not interfer with TV watching for others. I can direct the light to an exact location. I have not used the magnifier yet, so cannot comment on that. The base is weighted enough so that it can sit safely on the arm of my chair while I work.Read More

Mulch: Using Colored Plastic Mulches in the Vegetable Garden
As you’ve been flipping through the pages of all the gardening and seed catalogs that landed on your doorstep this winter, chances are you’ve seen a page or two dedicated to plastic mulches in every color of the rainbow. Plastic mulches, particularly black, white, and clear, are nothing new in the commercial vegetable production arena. However, it is fairly recently that these and other colored mulches have made their way into the realm of home gardening. Plastic mulches offer a variety of benefits: they can extend the growing season by warming garden soil, they can improve weed and insect management, they can help retain soil moisture, and they can increase crop yields and quality. Black, white, brown, red, silver, green, or blue--which color is best? That depends on the crop(s) you’re growing and the effect(s) you desire from the mulch. And because research on colored mulches is not entirely conclusive, most of these plastics are sold with a “for trial use only” caveat.
Mulches by Color
The most widely used, available, and inexpensive of the colored mulches, black plastic mulch has excellent weed suppression ability because of its opacity. It is also useful for warming soil during the growing season, particularly if as much of the plastic as possible is in contact with the soil below. Research at Penn State has shown that soil underneath black plastic can be up to 5 °F warmer at a 2-inch depth and up to 3 °F warmer at a 4-inch depth than uncovered soil at the same depths. This means that plants can be set out earlier than on bare soil, and may result in earlier maturing fruit. For example, collaborative trials between US Department of Agriculture and Auburn University indicate that okra crops mature earlier with higher yields on black plastic than on bare soil. (Blue and red plastic also work well for okra.)
White plastic may be of less interest to us cool-weather, short-season gardeners in Massachusetts since it tends to keep soil temperatures cooler rather than warming the soil as does black plastic. The benefits of white plastic in keeping weeds at bay, retaining soil moisture, and keeping the soil cool around the roots of crops such as peas, broccoli, cabbage, and cauliflower may be more easily and inexpensively achieved with a biodegradable mulch, e.g., straw.
Brown Infrared Transmitting (IRT) plastic mulch is a fairly recent innovation. It warms garden soil better than black plastic early in the growing season and also controls weeds. IRT is a technology that combines the weed-suppressing properties of black plastic with the heatabsorbing qualities of clear plastic. (Clear plastic is better at warming soil than black plastic but does not control weeds as well.) But be warned—not all brown plastic on the market is IRT, according to University of Vermont Extension.
Researchers at the USDA and Clemson University noted that certain crops performed better when grown in red mulch as opposed to black mulch: tomatoes, which yielded 20% more fruit; basil, the leaves of which had greater area, succulence, and fresh weight; and strawberries, which smelled better, tasted sweeter, and yielded a larger harvest. Penn State researchers found yield increases for tomatoes and eggplants on red mulch compared to black.
Anecdotally, gardeners in Berkshire County saw marked increase in overall plant size, fruit size, and yield of tomatoes, eggplant, and peppers when plants were grown in red mulch as opposed to straw mulch.
Green IRT mulch has been shown to encourage earlier ripening and greater yields of cantaloupes in trials at Penn State and at the University of New Hampshire, where IRT mulch was developed. As with brown plastic, look for the IRT designation on green mulch for sale by garden suppliers.
Researchers at Penn State found that cantaloupes, summer squash, and cucumbers all produced significantly more fruit when plants were grown in blue mulch as compared to black mulch.
Reflective silver mulch is useful as a deterrent to aphids (and the viral diseases they carry) and whiteflies, according to researchers at the University of California’s Kearney Agricultural Center. It has also been shown to reduce the number of cucumber beetles present on cucumber and squash plants in studies at Virginia Tech. And silver mulch has potential benefits for pepper crops: at Penn State, bell peppers grown on silver mulch yielded an average of 20% more fruit than peppers grown on black plastic.
Reuse, Recycle, or Rethink?
As an environmentally conscious gardener, you might be thinking, “Using plastic in the garden isn’t particularly sustainable or environmentally friendly.” True, if you have to pull up and throw out yards of plastic year after year. However, some mulches are sturdy enough to be used again, if treated with care—a gardener in my neighborhood gets 2 to 3 years out of her red mulch. Some states actually have plastic mulch recycling programs, and as the popularity of mulches grows, these programs will likely become more available in Massachusetts. Another option that is being investigated is the use of biodegradable plastic mulch. Research at Cornell University suggests that biodegradable mulch works as well as black plastic in terms of warming soil and increasing crop yields. Made from corn starch and other biodegradable elements, biodegradable plastic mulch is currently available from nursery suppliers in black and clear.


Bid waiver insures proper service
The need for special services outweighed a concern of unnecessary bid waivers as the Legislative Council's Public Works and Engineering Committee approved a contract that will provide better sewer service for residents.
Approval of a contract with Operations Management International, Inc. for approximately $282,086 was voted in favor unanimously by the committee, shortly after a 6-1 vote came in favor of waiving the bidding process.
The company will conduct a pretreatment of town sewers, alleviating the system of industrial waste from restaurants and factories, Mayor Carl Amento said.
While the majority of the committee approved of the bid waiver, questions about not following proper town procedures in relations to bids were risen. Members of the entire council question the need for a bid waiver, asking whether Operations Management International's services are unique and not found elsewhere.
"I'm disturbed with this bid waiver," said Councilwoman Ann Altman, D-5. "We need a good reason not to follow the process."
"I am shocked that this kind of thing comes to us over and over again," said Councilwoman Elizabeth Wetmore, R-at-Large. " Is this a unique service?"
The company is currently being used by the city of New Haven. Town Engineer Al Savarese has searched since the spring to find competing companies that provide the service needed. He only found one in the state, according to Amento.
"Al has tried very hard to find a competitor," said Amento. "This is such a unique service that OMI is the only company that provides it."
"Is this the only company that provides this service?" asked Councilman Edward Beaudette. "If that is the case, then this qualifies as a bid waiver."
Once implemented, the town will not rely so heavily on New Haven for sewer services, said Amento. Councilman Thomas Fortuna, D-2, said the ultimate benefactor will be the taxpayer.
"This has the potential to lower residential sewer rates," said Fortuna. "We know this is the only company that performs this service. It's better for the environment."
The full council will discuss the bid waiver at their Dec. 4 meeting.

We are a family of 4: 2 adults (late 40s) + 2 kids (10 & 14) who will be visiting your great city in a little over a week (7/24-8/1). Hooray!!!! We enjoy hiking, going to museums/gardens/parks & just checking out new & exciting places. This is our 1st trip to Canada but definitely won't be our last.
We will be renting a car. Yes, I know that the public transportation system is great, however, we will flying in/out of Bellingham b/c on the lower airfares. I've already checked out other forms of transportation to get us to Vancouver: Amtrak, Quick bus etc, however, because of our arrival time (~8:20 am) & its departure (9:30), I didn't want to take the chance that we miss the bus/train (there is a 4 hr wait for the next one).
Got a great deal from the Richmond Tourism Bureau. Great room rate w/ FREE hot breakfast + parking + $800 worth of admission tickets to many of the attractions. It was a deal that we couldn't pass over. Here's my tentative itinerary:
7/26: Stanley Park via bicycle. Aquarium. Celebration of Lights. Since the fireworks display will not start until 10 pm, do you have any suggestions on places to see?
7/27: Playland Amusement Park (will probably go around lunchtime). Looking for suggestions on what we could do in the morning.
7/28: Tour Guys walking tour of Downtown & Waterfront. Vancouver Harbour Tour. Canada Place. Vancouver Lookout.
7/29: Scenic drive to Whistler on Sea-to-Sky Hwy. Stops in Porteau Cove, Britania Museum, Hiking @ Shannon & Brandywine Falls. Squamish.
7/30: Hiking in Whistler: plan on doing the Top of the World route. Any other hikes we shouldn't miss. Nothing too strenuous. Family Adventure Zone in the pm.
7/31: More hiking: plan on doing the Spearhead Walk. Ziplining. Indoor rock climbing. Biking around town?
8/1: Heading back to Bellingham. Flight leaves @ 6 pm
Any other suggestions on places to go? Depending on our schedule, we may go to the Gulf of Georgia Hatchery, Britania Harbor Shipyard or take a cruise from Stevenston. Thanks in advance for all your help.Edited: 6 years ago

'You are twice as likely to die': South Yorkshire police issues warning of over dangers of not wearing seatbelts
South Yorkshire Police has issued a warning about the dangers of not wearing seatbelts.
In a bid to save lives on the roads, the force is taking part in a two-week national campaign to raise awareness of the importance of wearing seatbelt.
According to research, those not wearing a seatbelt in a crash are twice as likely to die as those who do belt up.
Drivers and passengers aged 16 to 34 have the lowest seatbelt-wearing rates.
Roads Policing Sergeant Matt Duffy said: “Research shows that there are a number of reasons why people don’t wear seatbelts. One of the biggest being that drivers do not believe they are going to crash.
“No one starts their journey thinking they’re going to crash their car, no one wants to be involved in a crash. People need to remember that other drivers can still collide with you.“The accident may not be your fault, but if you’re not wearing your seatbelt, you are still twice as likely to die.
“Men aged 16 to 35 and women aged 16 to 25 are the least likely to wear a belt. We believe this could be due to peer pressure when in the car with friends of a similar age, or the person driving the car may feel too embarrassed to ask their friends to put their belt on. It is important that you ask yourself how would you feel if you killed your best friend?”
Department for Transport figures showed that in 2018, 26 per cent of car occupants killed on the UK’s roads were not wearing a seatbelt.
The two-week campaign will see traffic officers stopping drivers who are not wearing a seatbelt.
Sgt Duffy added: “The law is quite clear on the matter of seatbelts - if seatbelts are fitted in a vehicle they must be used.
“Drivers and passengers who fail to wear seat belts in the front and back of vehicles are breaking the law. Drivers caught without a seat belt face fines of £100, but we are more concerned about your safety than issuing fines. It takes just a few seconds to fasten your seat belt, so belt up to save lives.”


A Raytheon Technologies business has received a contract from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency to commence Phase 3 activities under the Blackjack program and supply an additional set of satellites.
Blue Canyon Technologies will manufacture six more satellites for the Blackjack effort, which seeks to establish a constellation in low-Earth orbit in compliance with the Department of Defense's criteria for payload and performance, the company said Wednesday.
Blue Canyon“™s X-SAT bus framework will serve as the basis for the additional satellites and include elements for radio frequency transmission, electric propulsion, data ingestion and power systems.
Work is underway for the initial four satellites that the company intends to deliver by the year's end.
George Stafford, CEO and cofounder of Blue Canyon, said the company will follow a rapid production schedule to help meet Blackjack“™s goal of delivering persistent and resilient coverage in LEO.
In June 2020, DARPA awarded contracts to SA Photonics and Blue Canyon for the production of satellites and payload for the Blackjack infrastructure. Blue Canyon and DARPA concluded a critical design review of the X-SAT bus later in the year.
Blue Canyon expects to ship the six satellites by the end of 2022 in line with DARPA's demonstration activities.
