Bernie Sanders Gets Tremendous Boost from Sick Socialist Group
Crazy Sanders is trying to become the next president even though he is too old to do the job. The man is a danger to the country as he promotes ever threatening progressive ideas that are wrapped in socialist ideas. Sanders has recently been in the spotlight not for his beloved ideas, but his health issues. His health is failing, and he does not see that the time for his departure has already come.
Instead of stopping and retiring he is working on promoting his awful ideas. Recently he won an endorsement of the Center for Popular Democracy Action. This war-like organization is nothing short of a danger to the United States. Their mission, as listed on their homepage, “Collectively, our network is committed to building a mass base of people for action, engaging them and developing their leadership and militancy over time, and thus always increasing the scale and impact of our collective work.”
Their goal is to set up their form of government so when the time is right they can replace democracy with socialism. Crazy Sanders is just the ringleader that is out in the public eye seeking to destroy a country that seeks freedom for all. But this group and others like it seek to destroy it all. The group endorses Sanders so much that their desire is for him to rule the nation. He is the last step for socialism to reign in America.
His competitors that love socialism is beginning to die off in the presidential race. Elizabeth Warren is one that has taken a nosedive in the polls. She cannot defeat the president in 2020. But there is nothing to worry about, Sanders health remains his biggest obstacle. Since his heart attack, he has been struggling to regain full health. He just looks sick all the time. Even his campaign staff is questioning his ability to continue as one has stated: “The clear, clear feeling permeating the Bernie Sanders campaign in New Hampshire was a sense of gloom, doom, and frustration.”
Gloom and doom are all that Sanders has to offer. And the Center for Popular Democracy Action is nothing more than a local terrorist organization determined to destroy America. This group is so in love with Sanders that their co-executive director stated, “Bernie Sanders is the powerful movement candidate we need to defeat Donald Trump.” The movement that the group is talking about is the overthrow of democracy in America. Their main goal is to use eccentric Sanders to implement their version of socialism.
The group’s president went on to mention that Sanders is the man for their plan “From ending mass incarceration and deportations to the $15 minimum wage and Medicare for All, Sanders is working hand-in-hand with our communities to champion the policies that we need to thrive.” This statement is full of socialist policy as it shows what they “need to thrive.” It is all about them and taking everything from the hard-working Americans that earned what they have.
Sander’s plan to offer government-run Medicare is nothing more than an attempt to control the population. Socialism must control people to survive. Under his plan, people that fail to support the establishment would not have access to health care. He claims that everyone could have it, but it becomes a way for a socialist to control people. The biggest danger to socialism is the people that learn to protest.
Bernie Sanders is a danger to the country and himself. He may have gained in the polls, but the popular vote is against him. Mainstream Americans want nothing to do with socialism. Sanders is not as popular as his supporters are making him out to be. He is a screwball just waiting to unleash his terror on the country. But he just does not have the support of the people. Even within the divided Democratic party, some liberals just do not want anything to do with his ideas or his plan for a hostile takeover of the country and the destruction of the American way of life.

Melodic Rock/Pop Rock/AOR
What do you do when the creative cup runneth over? Well, even when you’ve just released a shit hot album, you get back into the studio and keep that flame burning and that momentum going. That is what has happened to Palace as right on the tail of the great ‘One 4 the Road’ album, the Swedish band are back with ‘Retrospection – The Covers EP’, a short EP of melodic rock and AOR covers.
With this release, Michael Palace does exactly what is said on the tin, the Swedish musician takes a step back into the past, digs into some of his favourite records from growing up and gives them the Palace treatment. Therefore, what the listener will get here are really faithful renditions of the likes of ‘Kyrie’ from Mr. Mister and ‘Sister Christian’ by Night Ranger as Palace tear through modern adaptations delivered with both panache and reverence.
Yeah, this is dripping with 80’s melodic rock, pop/rock and AOR, but honestly, what did you expect? Palace pay wonderful homage to artists which inspired them and though it probably won’t make a lot of people run out and purchase a copy of ‘Retrospection…’, it shows that there is a fire still roaring at Palace that they will undoubtedly take into their next studio album.
"a nice stop gap, but Palace are much better at their own stuff"

Any recommendations for a deck that won’t cause wheel bite with 107mm Abec wheels, 218mm torque board trucks, and dual 6374 motors?
I’m open to ideas, I’ve been looking at drop through decks, but I’m not sure if I’ll get adequate clearance for my battery enclosure (12s4p).
December 4, 2017, 4:12am
You should def talk to
@treenutter at Red Ember Boards.
12s5p drop deck on surfrodz with 107s. No risers. No issues. This is a red ember obeah.
Sector 9 bintang, no wheelbite at all, I upgraded to 107mm last weekend
really any deck with a cutout I think would work…
December 4, 2017, 5:54am
Have you had any clearance issues with the hardware mounted under your deck? Also, how stiff is that Sector 9 board? I’m 220lbs.
December 4, 2017, 5:57am
@psychotiller can you do side shot to show ground clearance. Also speed bumps? Double stacked 18650s?
These are not double stacked. I can try to get some more photos tomorrow. Speed bumps are usually avoided on dropped setups.
December 4, 2017, 6:33am
not true. you
need extra fat cutouts.
I got wheel bite with 97’s on my pintail and dropthrough(top mounted).
need to have 1/2 inch or more spacers…
I like to ride up high on spacers rather than a board with narrow foot space and 1 foot of cutout…
extra wide trucks will help a bit… but only a bit…
@mmaner and @psychotiller ! @Provoke I can answer any questions you’ve got. I design and make dropped decks for esk8 my feed IG is here.
December 4, 2017, 9:40pm
Wow! I would love to see how you routed the motor wires to avoid contact!
You can see it here in the pics.
I got basicly the same set up going on a Landyachz Evo deck, my deck should come in soon I just need to get the wheels, I want green 107s and they are out of stock everywhere
December 5, 2017, 1:14am
I was hoping for more closeups. But i see what you did with the little section to keep them from moving/ hitting motors. I like it.
December 5, 2017, 1:15am
Belt drive? You going underneath or out back with it?
yep dual 6374 underneath with a 12s4p battery and 218mm trucks
December 5, 2017, 1:39am
Interesting. Same here just 13s6p instead for battery. Might add two more motors up front in the future.
With the TB mounts it appears you can get some pretty good clearance. Bottom of the can is at least 1cm above the bottom of the truck.
December 5, 2017, 4:42am
I’m digging the cable management on the motors. I’ll have to find some content on how to pull that off.
December 5, 2017, 4:44am
Do you feel that you need to be a bit more cautious with your motors out back? AKA when you are storing it or throwing it into the trunk of a car. I ride my company bus to work, so I’ve been contemplating how I would store it on the bus… probably just give it a seat of its own with the motor end pointing upwards.
Store it over the wheels, safest way!

Lubricant used in medical procedures recalled after fungus link in 380 patients
The South African Health Products Regulatory Authority (Sahpra) has issued a countrywide recall of a suspected contaminated sterile lubricant, Lubri-A, linked to fungus infections in 380 patients.
Sahpra said the source of the contamination is still under investigation.
The health department said on Thursday it would assist in the recall of the product, which was used in public and private health facilities for medical procedures such as insertion of urethral catheters and ultrasound-guided insertion of venous catheters.
The recall follows an investigation by the National Institute for Communicable Diseases (NICD) into an unusually high number of patients in hospitals in South Africa with positive cultures of a fungus called wickerhamomyces anomalus (previously known as candida pelliculosa). The fungus is recognised as an emerging pathogen causing serious infection in immunocompromised and/or critically ill patients and babies admitted to neonatal units.
The department said while evidence suggests a potential source of the fungus may have been the lubricating jelly, it is not yet certain if all cases in this outbreak represent true infections.
A proportion of these cases may represent pseudo-infections. “A positive culture in the laboratory without a true infection in the patient may occur, for example, if there was fungal contamination of the patient’s skin by contaminated lubricating jelly before collection of a specimen,” the department said.
The government, Sahpra, the NICD and manufacturer Electro-Spyres are working together to ensure the product is no longer used and all unopened lubricant sachets or batches are returned through the distribution channels.
Sahpra CEO Dr Boitumelo Semete-Makokotlela said recalling medical products is a crucial measure to address safety concerns or quality issues to protect the health of the public.
“Future manufacture and distribution of the product will be subject to review and authorisation by Sahpra.”
Healthcare professionals who have used this product have been urged to monitor their patients for signs of infection and to liaise with their local laboratories to check if any of their hospitalised patients have had a positive fungal culture after use of this product.
This type of fungal infection can only be diagnosed in a laboratory. The signs or symptoms will depend on the body site affected.
The recall is limited to Lubri-A (2.5g and 50g sachets) and does not affect other lubricating gel products authorised for sale in South Africa.

WATCH: Kellyanne Conway Has Some Bad News for White House Leakers
The Trump administration has been plagued by leakers ever since day one, which presents a danger to national security and has served to undermine the agenda the president has been trying to accomplish ever since he was sworn into office.
However, it looks like the individuals responsible for these leaks are about to start wetting their pants, as Kellyanne Conway just delivered some news guaranteed to give them nightmares.
Speaking with Fox News host Martha MacCallum, Conway said that there is a new plan being put in action to flush out these leakers and bring them to justice.
Conway said she wouldn’t be giving up information on how they plan to attack the ongoing leak issue, but explained that there are several reasons why staffers would leak.
“Some leaks exist to hurt colleagues, some leaks exist because they disagree with the policies that are being put forth,” she said. “None of them are helpful.”Trending:
Conway hinted the leaks have lessened since the Trump administration first took office, but hinted at a troubling trend she’s witnessed.
“It’s not so much leaking as using the media to shiv each other,” she said. “That was going on quite a bit at the beginning of the administration but it’s less so now.”Advertisement - story continues below
President Trump himself shared this sentiment himself when he tweeted out that these leakers are “traitors and cowards.”
The so-called leaks coming out of the White House are a massive over exaggeration put out by the Fake News Media in order to make us look as bad as possible. With that being said, leakers are traitors and cowards, and we will find out who they are!
Conway backed Trump’s comments saying, “I think the president is on solid ground here, that if you work at the pleasure of the president like we all do here and you have the privilege and the blessing of coming every day to work in this White House on behalf of the nation that we all love then you want to be competent, you want to be loyal and you ought to be able to reinforce the agenda that prevailed here.”
Those who have decided to place a political agenda above the welfare of their fellow Americans and leak information just to spite the president and with the far-fetched hope that maybe their actions will contribute to Trump’s downfall ought to be shaking in their shoes because their days of undermining this administration are numbered.
It’s good to weed these folks out because a president needs to be surrounded by people who believe in him and his platform in order to be successful. Let’s hope they get to the bottom of this quickly.

What kind of mark does NYU deserve for its handling of its student occupation? Let’s give the university a “B-plus” or even an “A” for a performance marred only by a poor end game—immediately reinstating the suspended perpetrators of the sandbox revolution, thus letting them claim that they had won. (“We did it”, said the Take Back NYU web site. “You made our cry heard around the world and it worked!!”)
The University of Rochester deserves a “D-minus” for caving in last month to an SDS sit-in only nine hours after it started. The university did not yield to the occupiers’ major demand—divestment in Israel—but it promised economic and humanitarian aid, including scholarships for Gaza students. Universities and colleges would do well to plan ahead for more anti-Israel and pro-Palestinian occupations by the hard left. More than 20 student occupations have been mounted in Britain and sponsors want to inspire similar actions across the pond.
In preparing for such occupations, American administrations should take a look at a model response from the 1960s, possibly the only “A-plus” in the student occupatrion sweepstakes. It took place at the University of Chicago, drew little publicity at the time and is recalled by few today. The Chicago Maroon, the university newspaper, wrote recently that “awareness of this story is mostly limited to its eyewitnesses” and is “nearly absent from the collective memories passed down to each new generation of students.”
The central figure in the story is the late Edward Levi, president of the university, later to be the attorney general (under President Ford) who cleaned up the justice department after the Watergate mess. He faced a far more serious threat than NYU did last month. NYU had a handful of comic protesters, who explained that they wanted to “consense” (they meant form a consensus), screamed about brutality without being touched, and bitterly accused the employees who evicted them of drinking “corporate water.” Then there was the demand that NYU reconsider the lifting of its ban on selling Coca Cola. The administration disarmed protesters by offering food, even vegetarian options. It’s always hard to hate oppressors who care about the vegan menu. In contrast, the Chicago protesters were sophisticated and experienced. Some were members of Students for a Democratic Society and many went on to join the terrorist Weather Underground.
Levi had taken office at a tense time, only a few months after the upheaval at the 1968 Democratic national convention. On January 30th, more than 400 students took over the administration building, the third occupation of a campus building in four years. Vietnam and anger at “the system” were obvious issues. So was resentment that students played no role in university governance. But the excuse for the takeover was the sociology department’s decision not to rehire Marlene Dixon, an eccentric Marxist and radical feminist who had drawn attention by chanting “Work, study, get ahead, kill!” to students during Levi’s inaugural procession.
Despite heavy pressure to call in police, Levi refused to do so. No police meant no photos of abused students and therefore no dramatic storyline. “The whole thing builds to the police raid,” said classics professor James Redfield, decribing the ideal conditions for a successful student takeover. “That’s the big scene and when that doesn’t happen, they don’t quite know what to do.”
Levi refused to capitulate or negotiate. Students generally supported the administration. Faculty was split, and on the seventh day, Milton Friedman held a press conference vehemently opposing amnesty. Left alone for 16 days, the protesters grew weary and left the building. After the 1966 sit-in, a faculty body had recommended “appropriate disciplinary action, not excluding expulsion” if another takeover occurred. That’s what happened in 1969. Levi called 165 students in for hearings, suspended 81 and expelled 42. Students who convincingly expressed remorse got off the hook. In statements afterward, Levi talked about the integrity and civility of the university, its mission to pursue truth and the need to resist coercion. He said, “There are values to be maintained. We are not bought and sold and transformed by that kind of pressure.”
During the takeover, a bomb threat was called in and someone threw a typewriter during a confrontation among students. During an SDS-sponsored rally against the disciplinary committee, student kicked in the door of Levi’s house. But the tumult that burst forth on other campuses subsided at the University of Chicago. This success in Chicago in the 60s and NYU today should lead other colleges and universities to take note. The low key, no-police, no-negotiation strategy works.

Researchers from the Montreal Heart Institute in Canada studied 337 patients who have atrial fibrillation. Some of them were assigned to take 4g of fish oil in a day while others were assigned to take placebo. The random assignment lasted for 16 months.
The researchers learned that 64.1 percent of patients who were taking fish oil reportedly showed a recurrence of experiencing atrial fibrillation. This is higher than the recurrence rate of 63.2 percent among those who were taking placebo.
Additionally, the researchers also learned that fish oil supplements do not effectively reduce inflammation which could be the reason why it lacks efficacy.
"Fish oil has no role in the rhythm-control management of atrial fibrillation," says Dr Anil Nigam, lead researcher of the study. He is also an Associate Professor of Medicine at the University of Montreal and a Cardiologist at the Montreal Heart Institute.
Nigam adds that the popular Mediterranean-type diet should be recommended in order to prevent heart disease and reduce blood pressure. This type of diet is rich in natural omega-3 fats and other healthy nutrients that would include olive oil, legumes, and fresh fruits and veggies. Likewise, the diet requires one to have a lower intake of red meat, saturated fats and trans fats.
Fish oil is a type of oil that comes from the tissues of oily fish. It is now one of the most popular dietary supplements on the market. However, problems of quality have been identified due to lack of regular quality testing on fish or marine oil supplements prior to sale. Some of these problems would include contamination, formulation, spoilage, and inaccurate listing of Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) levels.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is considered as the most common form of abnormal heart rhythm or arrhythmia. It may show no symptoms though it is usually associated with congestive heart failure, chest pain, fainting, or palpitations. The cause of AF in an individual may not be identified. Its presence can be learned clinically by taking a pulse. It can be confirmed through the use of an electrocardiogram (ECG).
An example of irregular heartbeat condition is when the heart beats as fast as 150 beats per minute. A normal resting heart rate among adults ranges from 60 to 100 beats a minute.
The risk of being affected with atrial fibrillation increases as one becomes older. Other risk factors are high blood pressure, diabetes and obesity.
While having a Mediterranean type diet can be a good strategy for treating atrial fibrillation, Nigam says that it still requires further studies.
In Canada, there are at least 350,000 people who are affected with atrial fibrillation. This number will most likely increase as the population gets older.

Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany – “We are moving forward here at the White House under the assumption that there will be a second Trump term…we think he won that election.”
Peter Navarro, Director of the Office of Trade and Manufacturing Policy in the Trump Administration said earlier that he’s operating on the assumption that there will be a second term for President Trump, adding that any “speculation” about what Joe Biden might do is moot at this point.
Personally, I’m with them. Well, not ‘with them‘ – I’m not a Trump supporter. Just agreeing that they are correct in their assumptions. And while there is, in all reality, not much to choose between the two options for president, the difference favouring Trump over Biden is a colossal and insurmountable bottomless crevasse in relative terms. Not that I care. I’m just a little interested in seeing just how the US fares over its imminent collapse into chaos.
While this is one of the shortest Zero Hedge posts I have ever seen, it is worth reading:
“Kayleigh McEnany Says Trump Expects To Serve Second Term”
I can’t wait to see all the red faces of those who have jumped the gun to salute ‘Pres’ Biden.
I also can’t wait to see the new headline – “Trump Wins 2020 Election In A Landslide” – when all the votes have been correctly apportioned.

Somehow I missed the passing of Stan Brakhage on March 9th. He seems to have slipped away as quietly as his films often entered our lives…without sound. Or maybe the sound of his passing was overwhelmed by the war drums.
I think of Brakhage as a poet (rather than a painter) in light who put his body between the "flesh of the world" and his mind. Merleau-Ponty once said, "It is by lending his body to the world that the painter changes the world into paintings." Something similar may be said about Brakhage. He made film the embodiment of his subjective experience, memory, and perception; a body of work that looks slowly and carefully at the world (and in doing so demands "slow viewers"), cinematic lento, a characteristic that links him to other modern "poets" from Nietzsche to Tarkovsky. He left us nearly 400 films. Now is the time to savor them.

- In a brand new interview with ELLE, Jennifer Aniston opens up about her two previous marriages, to Brad Pitt and Justin Theroux.
- When it comes to her ex-husbands, Aniston reveals, "My marriages, they’ve been very successful, in [my] personal opinion. And when they came to an end, it was a choice."
- As well as talking about her new Netflix movie Dumplin', Aniston discusses societal sexism, particularly in regard to the assumption that all women want children.
Jennifer Aniston is shutting down the persistent rumor mill that continually reports that she's either pregnant or can't find a man.
And even though her marriages ended, Aniston doesn't see them in a negative light. She explains, "My marriages, they’ve been very successful, in [my] personal opinion. And when they came to an end, it was a choice that was made because we chose to be happy, and sometimes happiness didn’t exist within that arrangement anymore. Sure, there were bumps, and not every moment felt fantastic, obviously, but at the end of it, this is our one life and I would not stay in a situation out of fear."
And that's not all. The Friends icon also wants to shift the perceptions of women who choose not to have children or get married. As she says, "We live in a society that messages women: By this age, you should be married; by this age, you should have children. That’s a fairy tale. That’s the mold we’re slowly trying to break out of."
In case anyone was in any doubt, yes, Aniston is done with misogyny: "That’s part of sexism—it’s always the woman who’s scorned and heartbroken and a spinster. It’s never the opposite."
I have a new Queen now.

This invention relates a method for establishing load-proportional working characteristics such as real load or load-proportional working time of internal combustion machines used in prime movers or machines as well as in motor vehicles.
The invention also relates to measuring equipment for the performance of the said method.
The value of the load of internal combustion engines used in prime movers, machines, or motor vehicles varies during work proportionally to the resistance to be overcome. The internal combustion machine is seldom run with maximum load, its working capacity is generally not exhausted.
It is very important as far as the economic running and complete exploitation is concerned to know the loadproportional working characteristics.
The knowledge of the real performance makes it possible to approach the optimum co-ordination of motor vehicle and resisting-force or of primary mover and machine, respectively.
The load-proportional working time is characteristic for the degree of wearing. Its knowledge makes it possible to check the compliance with fuel and lubricating oil norms and also to establish the real amortization time (i.e. the lifetime as a function of the working conditions) and an optimum time-table for planning the maintenance and repair work.
The performance of an internal combustion machine such as Diesel or petrol engine (hereinafter referred to as motor) is characterized by its work performed during a working cycle. According to the prior art the value of this work is established by the following method. A pressure measuring element is coupled to the combustion chamber, and the pressure-proportional output signal of the said measuring element is integrated over the piston path. This method utilizes, thus, the pressure prevailing in the combustion chamber -- as a system characteristic -- for the generation of a load-proportional signal.
This method is in principle correct but according to the prior art it is not yet possible to build-in into the vehicle -- as an accessory -- such a measuring device in a manner as to make it continually work all over the working time. The main hindrance is the difficulty to find the proper shape and location for the pressure measuring element.
For this reason, the prior art method is only applied in laboratory work, preferably in developing or testing motors.
The invention has been conceived in order to develop a method and measuring equipment for establishing loadproportional working characteristics of motors used in prime movers or machines as well as in motor vehicles which offers the advantage over methods according to the prior art that the motor can be observed continuously during work by means of a measuring device built into the vehicle -- as an accessory -- and performing its duty over the whole working time.
The invention is based on the conception that not only the pressure but also the average temperature prevailing during the working cycle can be utilized for establishing a load-proportional working characteristic.
In the course of the method according to the invention a load-proportional system characteristic is established by measuring the temperature of the exhaust gas of the motor, and the measured value of the load-proportional working characteristic sought is derived from the signal representing the temperature.
The value of the load-proportional working time can, e.g. be obtained if the signal representing the said temperature is, during the running time, integrated by a digital means, and the value of the integral is displayed.
If the method is applied in order to obtain the value of the load, a load signal is generated by transforming -- according to a linear function -- the signal representing the said temperature, and the said load signal is coupled to an analog or digital display means.
The measuring equipment according to the invention comprises a temperature measuring element arranged in the flow path of the exhaust gases of the motor, a measuring circuit connected over its input to the said measuring element, and a display means connected to the output of the said measuring circuit.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the measuring circuit comprises an amplifier connected to the output of the said measuring element, a voltage-frequency converter connected to the output of the said amplifier, and pulse counter stage connected to the output of the said converter whereas the means for displaying the load-proportional working time is connected to the output of the pulse counter stage, and the means for displaying the motor load is connected to the output of the said voltage-frequency converter.
It is an advantage of the solution according to this invention that the load of a machine or vehicle comprising an internal combustion engine can be observed continuously or according to need during the whole working time, this observation including the displaying of overload and the measuring of the load-dependent wearing away of the motor.
Comparing the value of the load-proportional working characteristic with other characteristics, one can obtain a number of conclusions which have according to prior art up till now not been obtainable. A useful conclusion can e.g. be drawn if comparing the real working time with the load-dependent (i.e. load weighted) working time in order to evaluate the co-ordination of prime mover and machine and the average degree of exploitation of the prime mover capacity.
The invention will now be described more particularly with reference to the annexed drawings showing preferred embodiments or diagrams, respectively.
FIG. 1 shows the diagram of the exhaust gas temperature as a function of the motor load.
FIG. 2 shows a diagram of the load-weighted working hour as a function of the motor load.
FIG. 3 shows the block diagram of a preferred embodiment of the measuring equipment.
FIG. 4 shows the block diagram of another embodiment of the invention.
The average temperature of internal combustion machines over a working cycle is proportional to the fuel quantity supplied into the combustion chamber within a time unit. It is, thus, also proportional to the power performed by the motor. The average temperature over a working cycle or any other combustion temperature that is proportional to the average one can be considered as power-proportional system characteristics.
FIG. 1 shows the temperature of the exhaust gas in dependence of the motor load. It can be seen from the diagram that the relationship is a linear one; the temperature of the exhaust gas is up to 120° C in a no-load run whereas up to 550° C at maximum load, the temperature being measured in the exhaust pipe end.
For establishing the load-proportional working characteristics, the temperature of the exhaust gas is measured and considered as load-proportional system characteristic, and the measured value of the load-proportional working characteristic sought for is derived from the signal representing the said temperature.
Most characteristic of the load-proportional working characteristics is the relative value of the load within a range beginning at idle run and including the beginning of overload. It can be expressed in HP, in kW or even in %. This characteristic is hereinafter referred to as "load".
A measuring network realizing a linear function is used to derive the load signal from the signal representing the temperature (for the linear function see FIG. 1), and the numerical value of the load characteristic can be obtained by coupling the load signal to the input of an analog or digital display means.
A further load-proportional working characteristic is the load-proportional working time which can be obtained as the product of the relative value of the load and the working time given in hours.
The load-proportional working time is generated in the following manner. The signal representing the temperature is integrated during the running time by a digital means, and the value of the integral is displayed or recorded, e.g. at a magnetic tape memory.
The quotient of the load-proportional working time and the real working time is a further load-proportional working characteristic, i.e. a feature characterizing the average degree of exploitation of the motor.
The comparison of the load-proportional feature with other working characteristics can be the source of a number of further useful informations.
FIG. 2 shows a diagram of the load-proportional working time. The abscissa represents the load. The values readable at the digital display means and representing the load-proportional working time of a real working hour are listed on the ordinate. It can be seen from FIG. 2 that, e.g. in the case of a relative load of N = 70%, the load-proportional working time of a real working hour is equal to 0.74.
The measuring network can also be adjusted in a manner as to cause no change in the displayed value of the load-proportional working time during idle-run. In this case, the display means will advance according to half an hour's value if the motor is run for a whole hour at 50% of the rated power whereas it will display 0.25 hour's value of increase -- as compared with the value displayed an hour ago -- if the motor is run at 0.25 rated load during a real working hour.
If the real working time is simultaneously also measured and compared with the above load-proportional working time, useful conclusions can be drawn concerning the effectiveness of machine interconnections and other measures in the field of work organization. The quotient of the two kinds of working time has an optimum at about 85-95% since some idle-run is inevitable when starting and stopping the motor. If the technical state of the motor is sinking, the temperature of the exhaust gas as a function of the value of load increases. That means that at a given value of load the counting of load-proportional working hours will accelerate. Thus, the wearing away of the motor is indicated, and the protection of the motor can be provided for.
FIG. 3 shows a preferred embodiment of the measuring equipment according to the invention in block diagram.
The measuring equipment comprises a temperature measuring element 1 arranged in the flow path of the exhaust gas of the motor -- preferably in the exhaust pipe end. The measuring element can be a thermocouple or a thermosensitive resistor connected to a power supply. A linear amplifier 2 is connected to the output of the measuring element 1. The gain and the output level of the amplifier 2 can be set by the calibrating circuit 3 so that the characteristic as shown in FIG. 1 can be realized by the coupling together of the measuring element 1 and the amplifier 2. On the one hand, an analog display device 4 is coupled to the output of the amplifier 2 showing the value of the load immediately. On the other hand, a voltage-frequency converter 5 is coupled to the said output whereas the output of the converter 5 is coupled with a pulse counter 6 displaying the load-proportional working time. Furthermore, an analog registration means (memory) 7 can be connected to the output of the amplifier 2 if a subsequent processing of the measured values is wanted. A working-hour counter 8 is furthermore incorporated into the measuring equipment counting the working hours continuously during the run of the motor.
The manner of function of the motor is the following:
An analog signal appears at the otuput of the measuring element 1 that is proportional to the temperature of the flue gases. The said signal is amplified by the amplifier 2 having a calibrated characteristic. The load-proportional signal appears at the output of the amplifier 2, and is displayed by the device 4 and stored by the analog registration means (memory) 7. The voltage-frequency converter 5 derives from the said load-proportional signal a signal the pulse frequency of which being proportional to the voltage of the load-proportional signal. The pulses are counted by the pulse counter 6 during the time displayed by the working-hour counter 8.
The analog display device 4 is calibrated in HP, kW, or percentage of the rated power. The transform ratio of the voltage-frequency converter 5 is chosen in a manner as to provide for the correct function of the pulse counter 6, i.e. the latter one shall advance by an increment representing a load-proportional working hour if the motor has been run for a real working hour with a N = 100% load.
Another preferred embodiment of the measuring equipment serving to perform the method according to the invention is shown in FIG. 4 in block diagram.
A liner amplifier 2 is connected to the output of the measuring element 1, and an AD-converter 9 is connected to the output of the amplifier 2 transforming the analog output signal of the amplifier 2 (appearing as voltage) into a digital signal. A digital store 10 can be connected to the output of the AD-converter 9 for subsequent date processing. Furthermore, an arithmetic unit 11 is connected to the output of the AD-converter 9 performing the calibrating operations for the display and controlling the elements connected to it. On the one hand, a digital, decimal display means 12 can be connected to the output of the arithmetic unit 11 showing the instant value of the output in HP or in the percentage of the rated power, on the other hand, a pulse counter 13 is connected to an output of the arithmetic unit 11 showing the number of load-proportional working hours.
A third output of the digital arithmetic unit 11 controls a digital-analog converter 14 to the output of which an analog display device 15 is connected showing the instant load in an analog manner. If subsequent -- off-line -- evaluation is needed, an analog signal recorder 16 (magnetic tape store or registration means) can also be connected to the output of the DA-converter 14.
The working hour counter 8 is also in this embodiment incorporated. The starting and stopping of the working hour counter 8 is simultaneously performed when starting or stopping the other parts of the measuring equipment but its working is otherwise independent of the other parts of the measuring equipment.
The measuring equipment is supplied from a stabilized power supply (voltage supply), preferably one equipped with secondary batteries.

Have you ever wondered that How Long Does Raw Chicken Last In The Fridge After Sell By Date? It is safe to eat chicken after the sell-by date as long as it has been chilled for 3-4 days or unopened.
It’s never advisable to eat raw chicken, even if it doesn’t look or smell bad. Because fresh chicken needs to be cooked, you should note the sell by date on your raw chicken and either uses it up before the date or freeze it.
How Long Does Raw Chicken Last In The Fridge After Sell By Date
It Isn’t An Expiration Date
The entire issue of the relationship on meals is confusing for many people, particularly in regards to fresh meats and other highly perishable grocery shops.
The very first thing that you want to understand, and it is important, is that the date on your meat is not there to say, “It is too late today, fool, and throw me out or suffer the consequences!”
Food relationship is a voluntary entity that producers and retailers do. Sometimes, that date is there to your shop’s advantage to state just how long a product ought to be set out available.
Occasionally it’s a symptom of quality, a reminder that the product will probably be in its best for just a couple of days and must be used immediately.
It is very seldom a “dispose-by” date or expiry date. The USDA estimates that around 30% of the food produced in the USA annually goes to waste, along with lots of this is from people misunderstanding food communicating and discarding perfectly good meals.
Sell-By Date On Meat
There are three distinct phrases. You will commonly find meat. A “use-by” date is the producer’s best guess about how long your meals will be at their finest.
That is usually conservative since the producer legitimately would like you to taste the product as it is as great as it could be. A variation on such phrasing is “best if used previously,” which has much the same meaning.
A “sell-by” date is to the shop’s usage, so the meat counter’s staff understands when to indicate a bundle or eliminate it on the screen.
A poultry sell-by date, then, is merely a reminder to the shop staff. It will not tell you if the chicken remains in its finest, let alone if you want to throw it outside.
Refrigerator Life Of Chicken
Uncooked chicken has about a two-day fridge lifestyle. Therefore it is the type of thing you must intend to utilize or freeze immediately as soon as you’ve purchased it.
Raw chicken in the refrigerator for two days is something you probably won’t wish to smell, let alone consume.
The packaging date out of your shop can give you some advice in that way. If the chicken’s use-by date is now, you will probably need to maintain it one more day in the slightest.
When it’s obsolete later than now, it is possible to keep it securely for as much as two days. Bear in mind, the nasty bugs that could make you ill – salmonella, Yersinia, E. coli, and their kin – will not make the cooked chicken odor or taste awful.
You won’t know they are there till your belly provides you with the bad thing.
Stretching Your Storage Life
There are a few easy techniques to extend the shelf life of your poultry. In case your meal programs change, one option is to cook the cooked chicken anyhow and refrigerate it.
Cooked poultry will continue for three or four days in the fridge, so you will have tons of time to utilize it in a different meal. It is also possible to suspend your cooked chicken in its original packaging or good-quality freezer bags.
It will keep for months in the freezer, especially if you use a vacuum cleaner to extract all of the air from the bag. Chicken becomes freezer-burnt where it is exposed to air, so extracting the atmosphere usually means you could keep it more.
Based on the characteristic of the bags you have utilized, vacuum-sealed chicken might remain perfect for a couple of years.
Keep Cold Food Cold
Everyone these recommendations are predicated on the thought your chicken was kept cold at each step along the way. The bundle should feel chilly once you purchase this, and you ought to receive it house into your fridge whenever possible.
When it’s summertime, or if you reside in a hot climate, then use an insulated bag or picnic cooler to keep your food cold on the road home.
Additionally, it’s never a bad idea to check your refrigerator’s temperature and be sure it’s in 40 degrees Fahrenheit or below. When it’s running a little hot, your meals will spoil a great deal more quickly.
The Way To Tell Whether Chicken Is Poor, Rotten, Or Sweet?
Practicing proper hygiene and food security techniques will assist in preventing foodborne diseases.
Although not an ideal evaluation, your perceptions are often the most reliable tools to tell if a chicken has gone bad. Some common characteristics of terrible poultry are boring, slimy flesh along with a sour odor.
There are particular health risks related to Spicy foods. Thus always remember to practice food security and revel in your foods until their shelf life has expired!
The Way To Keep Chicken To Prolong Its Shelf Life?
You can assist poultry to stay fresh longer by keeping it on your fridge immediately after usage. Once ready, the chicken should be kept in a tightly-closed container to keep out moisture and other contaminants.
To get a long-term choice, you can suspend your chicken while maintaining its flavor should you use a freezer-safe container. If frozen in this way, raw poultry can be kept for as much as two years without sacrificing any quality in flavor or texture.
Some advantages of proper food storage include eating healthy, cutting off food costs, and helping the environment prevent waste.
Fascinating Facts About Chicken:
- Always make sure you clean your hands with water and soap, such as cleaning all work surfaces with soap after functioning with poultry.
- Always cook chicken thoroughly to an internal temperature of 165 degrees. Juices from properly cooked poultry will be wholly apparent. Doing these two things will help stop the spread of harmful bacteria like Salmonella and E-coli that are frequently connected with chicken.
- Cornish Game Hens are baby chickens which are just 5-6 months old.
- Chicken bones create good chicken stock.


WELLSVILLE, Ohio (WKBN) – Wellsville is the next community with plans to use cameras to catch speeding drivers in the works — and the village is thinking about changing a traffic law, too.
East Liverpool’s police department started using speed cameras last month and collected money from 300 tickets in just the first week.
Neighboring Wellsville wants in on the action. The village entered a contract Tuesday with Blue Line Solutions to get portable radar cameras.
Drivers have mixed feelings about it.
Scott Gibbs said even though everyone should pay attention to the speed limit, he doesn’t want the cameras.
“I’m personally not a big fan of them but I do know in East Liverpool and here, it’s certainly going to help the tax base a little bit.”
Blue Line Solutions will pay for the officers’ services to use the cameras and will get 60 percent of the citations collected.
The village council also wants to make sure drivers slow down by schools, even changing how many miles per hour over the school zone speed limit drivers are allowed before they’re given a ticket. It used to be six miles per hour over — now it’s just one.
“It’s probably good for safety, with the kids and stuff,” Don Gunther said.
“As long as they really publicize it and people know, then I don’t have a problem with it as long as you know that that’s the rules,” Gibbs said.
Wellsville won’t start using the cameras until the police department gets them in and trains its officers on how to use them.
Officers in Youngstown, Liberty, and Girard are already using the handheld cameras to catch speeders.

my new motorola RAZR
bought myself a new black Motorola razr last week. I really invested in an entire slew of communication tools. since my previous 3 phones have all been nokia, IÂm very invested in their product lines and had to make the transition to the new phone, so hereÂs the breakdown:
$199 for the phone (I got a $50 credit by asking, so i actually paid $149)
$99 Motorola HS105 headset (works great so far, $20 rebate right now)
$25 for a car charger
$25 for a charger to keep with me for travel
$25 for a nice little case IÂll use for awhile
so basically, I had to shell our around $375 to make this transition seamless as possible. however, steep learning curve, new phone, new bells and whistles, etc.
now, as I mentioned, the phone is absolute gorgeous and feels wonderful in your hand. I haven't yet figured out all the features, and there is some stupid AOL instant messenger stuff built into the phone, wired right into my start screen (how annoying can that be, and I thought this was supposed to be a status symbol...AOL?) anyway, the phone has been quite a conversation piece, as should any new piece of technology until the next coolest phone comes along in 2 months to knock this one down into the heap of progress in a throw away society.
the camera: I love the camera. now, I just have one with me in my pocket, I can just use whenever I feel. its empowering. and this is a full 640x480 image which is pretty darned cool.
the Bluetooth headset: so far, seems to work very well. the other day I was in a conference call for work and I was able to wander around my condo and leave the phone on the table in another room and it worked great. that was impressive. and to dial, its sweet, you can just push a button on the phone and say a previously recorded string (usually the persons name) into the phone and it will dial them. no more looking through the phone book, very excited about this feature. true, many phones have had this, but I just figured out speed dial on my last phone about 6 months ago so I am a late adopter of the voice activated technology. as I can tell this phone can stay inside my pocket while the headset can be the only device used for general calling purposes.
I still need to figure out how to xfer the images on the phone to my computer or over the phone's network. IÂll post some images later once I figure that out.

I highly recommend Say Nothing! Say Nothing A True Story of Murder and Memory in Northern Ireland. Say Nothing is a weak novel due to his plot, which is so thin that it cannot sustain 400+ pages.

Why Dancing Could Be The Perfect Hobby For Your Kids
If you’re trying to think of a great hobby for your kids to try, dancing could be the way to go. Whether you have girls or boys, dancing is one of the most amazing hobbies you can introduce them to. Here are a few reasons you should at least give it a try so they can see how they feel about it!
It Helps Them To Make Friends Outside Of School
There’s always the social aspect of dancing. Your children will be able to meet and make friends outside of school, which is great for their social skills and self-esteem. They will likely make friends for life if they stick with dancing for a while! People who dance together can become like family, especially dance partners!
They’ll Learn To Enjoy Moving Their Bodies While They’re Young
One of the biggest problems in the modern world is obesity. People don’t have much of a reason to get active, and many just sit around watching TV or on the computer. However, by getting your kids to enjoy moving their bodies while they’re young, you’ll teach them healthy habits that will stick with them for life. They may start out at a dance school but try different things as they get older. That’s fine! They don’t have to stick with it forever, they should want to try new things and see what they like and don’t like. As long as they’re active, they’re staying healthy.
They’ll Be Able To Express Themselves Through Dance
Dancing can give kids a great appreciation of the arts, as well as the opportunity to express themselves creatively through dance. Dance isn’t just exercise; it’s art. Routines can be far more profound than most people realize. If you want to make sure your kids have a way to express themselves, dancing is a wonderful idea.
They’ll Improve Things Like Balance And Coordination
Your kids will improve many skills when they dance regularly, such as their balance and coordination. As a result, they’ll become fit, healthy adults that are great at doing pretty much anything!
They’ll Have A Fun And Enjoyable Hobby
Hobbies are a must for kids. Do you want them to sit with their tablet or in front of the TV for hours a day developing square eyes? Giving them a hobby gives them a way to de-stress, enjoy themselves, and have something more important to think about than what their friends are doing on Facebook.
They’ll Have Bundles Of Confidence
Dancing is one hobby that can greatly improve your kids confidence and self-esteem. Whether your child is low on it at the moment or not, making sure they believe in themselves will help them later on in life. Dance can give them the confidence they need to succeed right now!
Will you let your kids try dancing? This is something that many children fall in love with at a young age. Do your children a favor and keep them healthy by introducing them to some amazing active hobbies. Thanks for reading and leave your thoughts below!

Decades After Ben Roy Says He Was Abused At A Catholic Summer Camp, He And His Father Reflect On What Went WrongBy Xandra McMahon

At a Town Hall Meeting on Tuesday night on the UC Davis campus, a number of students expressed concerns about the use of funds they say were meant for mental health resources and counselors. UC Davis posted the results of two audit reports. Both, while raising questions, appear to show funds expended appropriately.
One audit looking at the expenditure of student fees concluded, “With minor exceptions, our high-level review of expenditures determined that funds have been expended appropriately according to the policies, guidelines, and referenda governing the fees.”
At the same time, they noted that “the governance and management structure for the oversight of these fees could be strengthened, particularly with respect to the role of the COSAF [Council on Student Affairs and Fees] and ensuring separation of responsibility for allocation of funds and expenditure of funds.”
They also add, “Finally, we observed that the campus has no policy or guidelines for the management of accumulated reserves for student fees or comprehensive, long-term plans for the expenditure of those reserves. We also noted that, to be compliant with SASI [Student Activities and Services Initiative] reserve guidelines, Intercollegiate Athletics would need to establish an operating reserve of $275,000.”
With respect to the counseling services, they conclude, that “uses of MHF [Mental Health Fee] and SSF [Student Services Fee] funds earmarked for Counseling Services were generally appropriate. We did, however, note that the use of $250,000 Students Express Concerns About Mental Health Resources at Town Hall Meeting in MHF funds annually (6% of total appropriations for FY 2017) to support Case Manager FTEs in Student Judicial Affairs
and the Student Disability Center may be inconsistent with non-binding guidance provided by UCOP [University of California Office of the President].”
That is the key language picked up by students and a California Aggie article, many of whom believe that money should go to hiring more counselors.
On Tuesday, Shradha Shah, Policy Advocacy Officer for the Student Mental Health coalition, spoke at the town hall meeting with a prepared statement. “It is not secret that mental health crises are a real issue in our society today,” she said. “Suicide is the second leading cause of death among college students.”
A survey from 2015 found that “40 percent of undergraduates at UC Davis felt so depressed that they could not function on a daily basis. 12 percent had also reported that they had seriously contemplated suicide.”
Ms. Shah said, “To address these issues in 2015, UC Davis Student Affairs committed to having a net increase of 11 to 12 counselors by the end of fiscal year 2017. We are in 2018, and a recent audit has shown that this commitment has yet to be fulfilled.”
She said “this mental health system is ours, we have already paid for it, and despite rising tuition costs we have yet to see additional mental health care support.”
She then read from a petition signed by over 1000 students with numerous students in attendance rising in support.
Samantha Chiang co-authored the petition. She said, “This is for the students who can’t get appointments.” They muster up the courage to come in, “only to be told that the next available appointment is three weeks out. So they call in for day-of appointments at 8:05 am, only to be told that they were all booked a minute ago. They have to try again the next day. And they try, and try, and try. Until it is 10 days later and they might as well have taken (the) appointment from before, but now it’s too late, so they give up.
“It’s for the students who need to schedule their panic attacks because they can only get seen five times a quarter if they’re lucky,” she said. “So they need to assess which mental health breakdowns merit an appointment and which ones need to be buried deep, filed away for trauma to deal with later.”
She said, “Instead of medicine, students pop other pills.”
One of the panelists responded, “We agree with you, we are here because we want to expand access. We want to provide you with the services that you should have. We want the same thing. We are going to work toward it with you.”
Another student said that she just transferred last quarter and is need of counseling services, “but it has been so hard to get an appointment here.” She said, “If you already have anxiety it’s already hard to pick up the phone call… and ask for an appointment. I feel like Davis makes it even harder by being inaccessible and difficult to get an appointment.”
The panelist responded, “That highlights what we want to work on. We want to improve access and availability of appointments for students.” She later explained, “We do have a commitment to those positions. I don’t believe that the commitment of the 11 positions at the time was made on assumptions that did come true. That was banking on having enrollment increase which did not happen and that was forecasted. But the UCOP initiative is continuing over the next few years and we do have the UCOP commitment for the three positions that we have earmarked for positions. That’s all I can say.”
Another panelist explained that those 11 positions were based on certain assumptions of enrollment growth. Some of those positions were going to be covered by other funding types. “Many assumptions were taking place at that time to come up with the 11 FTE [full-time equivalent] counselor positions that you see in the audit,” he said. He noted that they have already filled the 2.2 FTE psychiatrist positions.
According to the audit report, “Agreements made with senior leadership for Counseling Services staffing levels have not been accomplished, and might need to be realigned in respect to current staffing and funding realities.”
It notes that counseling services employed 28 counselor FTEs in January 2016. “At that time the Provost documented an agreement with the Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs to add 11 new FTEs by the end of FY 2017. In response, SHCS [Student Health and Counseling Services] hired approximately 10 counselors on a contract basis. These positions were intended temporarily to satisfy general under-met student need while SHCS conducted recruitments for career positions targeted to serve specific student demographics. In FY 2016 and FY 2017, SHCS also completed a number of career recruitments, but experienced an unexpected amount of turnover.”
However, the audit notes, “Only one of the 10 employment contracts was renewed past June 2017. SHCS and Counseling Services agreed to prioritize recruitment for targeted positions, which would have been hindered by long-term obligations to the contract staff.”
Aaron Latta, reading a statement from the Davis College Democrats Mental Health Caucus, said the university needs to understand that there are many student organizations working on this issue, “and when the university lies to us, and ends up doing the exact opposite of what they told us they were going to do, it makes us all look bad.”
He noted that he goes to the city council to ask for more student housing, “now how can I tell them that the administration is going to be a faithful partner when they aren’t even willing to provide the funds in the right areas and fulfill their work. This cannot be swept under the rug.”
The audit recommends that the SHCS and Counseling Services should meet with BIA (Budget and Institutional Analysis) “to develop a new recruitment and funding plan for achieving a suitable number of counselor positions within a reasonable period of time. Because student enrollment continues to grow, the absolute numbers originally communicated by the Provost may need to be reconsidered in light of relevant benchmarks.”

HarperMees & Associates Says Bay Area Real Estate Sales Ready to Take Off
June 16, 2008 (PRLEAP.COM) Business NewsJohn Harper of HarperMees & Associates in Danville, California says home sales in the California's East Bay are ready to take off in the second half of 2008.
Bucking the trend of continued doom and gloom in the real estate industry, HarperMees & Associates in Danville, CA sees the second half of 2008 having the potential to produce one of the best fourth quarters for East Bay home sales in a long time.
"We are seeing a rapid increase of interest from investors and buyers seeking affordable housing in foreclosures and bank owned properties," says John Harper. "Our online inquires for information on foreclosures has increased almost 30% in the last month."
According to Gus Kramer, Contra Costa County Tax Assessor, property tax values in some East Bay communities have fallen back to 1998 levels.
With the strong euro and Canadian dollar fueling foreign investment, California, one of the top 3 U.S. markets for foreign real estate investors, is positioned to benefit from rekindled interest in the purchase of bank owned properties.
"We are seeing a very significant difference in data gathered from the MLS this year over 2007," says Harper. "Last year, the suprime mess caused pending sales to flatten and decrease from May to December. This year we are seeing pending sales continue to strengthen."
East Bay real estate has been a historically good investment with property value appreciation remaining robust through many challenging times. While property values may take some time to recover, sales activity of foreclosed real estate is increasing, which is a positive sign that recovery may be on the way.
Paul Mees, international sales expert for the team, says, "We are very positive on the I-680 corridor from Walnut Creek to Pleasanton, but absolutely bullish on the East Bay communities of Antioch, Pittsburg and Brentwood, California."
HarperMees & Associates is the top producing team at Keller Williams Realty in Danville, CA.
