Panel Borders: The DFC Library
From May 2008 – March 2009 Children’s book publisher David Fickling launched a bold experiment in creating a new kids comic – The DFC – for the British market, which on a weekly basis featured new stories in a variety of genres from some of Britain’s best up and coming comics creators, not to mention a lead strip written by Philip Pullman. Unfortunately the comic folded after 43 issues, but now a year on, the first three volumes of The DFC Library have been released, reprinting collections of material in European Graphic Album format.
Alex Fitch talks to Kate Brown, the award winning creator of Spider Moon, Dave Shelton, the creator of Good Dog, Bad Dog and Ben Haggarty, the writer of MeZolith, who with artist Adam Brockbank has created a book that one critic has already called “the most important British graphic novel of the last twenty years”.

Dieting doing you no good? If your weight simply won’t budge in spite of your strict eating plan, it’s time to figure out why. Read about why diets fail.
The link between stress and obesity is now well proven, scientifically. High stress levels inhibit weight loss by triggering the excessive release of a hormone called cortisol, in the body.
Since cortisol increases cravings for sugary and fatty foods, you end up eating too many foods in this group. Also, your body stores more fat.
#2 Hormone Imbalance
For lasting weight loss, fat needs to be released from your fat cells, and burned for energy. This is a complex process that depends on many metabolic hormones being in balance (e.g. Insulin, thyroid hormones, cortisone).
So, if other hormones such as estrogen, progesterone, or leptin (your hunger hormone) are out of whack, these will hinder weight loss. Until your hormones are in balance, you won’t be able to lose weight effectively.
#3 Low quality calorie intake
Research shows that calories aside, it’s the kind of food you eat that determine why diets fail. High quality food VS low quality food with equal calories impact your weight loss efforts differently.
For instance, eating a small portion of almonds instead of a cookie – with the same number of calories- impacts your body differently. The cookie creates a sugar spike, affecting your metabolism adversely, unlike the nuts.
That’s why it’s important to pay as much attention to the quality of food, as it is to the quantity.
#4 Lack of adequate sleep
Believe it or not, sleep deprivation may very well be slowing down your weight loss efforts. The more sleep-deprived you are, the higher your levels of the hormone cortisol.
Consequently, your appetite will shoot up, and you’ll end up eating more sugary and fatty foods. In fact, studies show that sleep deprived people tend to eat on average 300 calories more each day.
#5 Not drinking enough water
Keeping well hydrated is essential for good health. If your water intake is low, you won’t be able to flush out all the toxins that your body accumulates naturally. Also, dehydration can feel like hunger, and drive you to eat too much. Too little water intake is one reason why diets fail.
So, just make sure you drink 8-10 glasses of water throughout the day, between meals. Ditch those sugary and fizzy drinks and stick to water, or even coconut water, lemonade, or lassi.
#6 Your living environment
You may not have considered this, but your environment really counts, when it comes to maintaining an exercise routine. For example, you probably don’t step out for a walk if you live on the main road, or in a bustling market area.
But don’t let this hamper your enthusiasm: consider a home workout, or look for a gym nearby.

Spanish teacher Amber Boyd recognized freshman Adelae Barkley because she embodies all the attributes of an exemplary Starr’s Mill Student. She is respectful to her teachers and peers and responsible with her school work.
“Adelae really embodies all of the PBIS values that we have. She’s respectful, accountable, responsible,” Boyd said. “She takes her work seriously and she cares about the students in the class. She is a person of integrity and these days that is very important to be and have.”
Other underclassmen receiving nominations included freshmen Emily Purcer, Chris Peckett, Cora Harris, and Mark Panait.
English teacher and speech and debate coach Terence Fitzgerald recognized senior Isabella McDonald because she has been supportive and Inspirational in his 5th period speech class.
“Isabella is a terrific student in speech class. Having a positive environment is key to student success, and I feel like she brings it,” Fitzgerald said. “Isabella is just a great person motivating others to do good speeches.”
Other upperclassmen receiving nominations included seniors Rylie Hamilton, Garrett Jones, and juniors Cheyenne Mitchell, Peyton Jones, Anthony Devarez, Camilo Velez, and Katelyn Griffin.
Student of the Month winners receive a t-shirt and earn a place on the Wall of Stars in the 800 hallway.
Athletic secretary Stacy Nichols recognized front office secretaries Leslie Frey and Dana Clevenger for being resourceful in finding substitute teachers in a short time span since the pandemic hit.
“They have had an increase in responsibilities ever since the pandemic with teachers being out sick or taking care of ill family members often having to be out sometimes at the last minute,” Nichols said.
Other teachers receiving nominations for the month of September included athletic secretary Stacy Nichols, math teacher Derek Abrams, paraprofessional Macie Comeau, and guidance counselor Connie Patterson.
Once a month Andrea Freeman, the assistant principal in charge of PBIS, sends out a link for staff members to nominate students and teachers on their good behavior. The PBIS committee, composed of Freeman, PBIS coach Adriah Williamson, and other faculty and staff, vote on the PBIS staff and students of the month.
“[PBIS] a system and a framework that rewards students for positive behavior,” Freeman said. “Research tells us that when we work in an environment that rewards positive behavior, rather than focusing on the consequences from negative behavior, then students and staff will internalize those behaviors better and more effectively.”


text: With improving neonatal survival for very premature babies, the challenge for neonatalogists is to ameliorate outcome of surviving babies. Several pharmacological molecules have been shown to have protective effects in different types of in vitro or in vivo animal models of acquired cerebral brain damages. However translational research and conduction of therapeutic trials in human remain difficult due to failure to recognize start of deleterious cascade leading to cerebral damage and additional toxic effect of potential protective molecules. This review concentrates on best evidence emerging in recent years on prevention on brain damage by early drug administration. It has been shown in two randomised trials that prenatal low-dose of magnesium sulphate does not increase paediatric mortality in very-preterm infants and has non significant neuroprotective effects on occurrence of motor dysfunction (with a 0.62 odds ratio in the French trial Premag and 0.71 relative risk in the Australian trial ACTOMgSO4), justifying that magnesium sulphate should be discussed as a stand-alone treatment or as part of a combination treatment, at least in the context of clinical trials. Antenatal corticosteroid therapy increases the survival of very-preterm infants, including the most immature. Moreover in an observational recent study of the Epipage cohort, it has been observed a significant decrease in white matter injury in the 28-32 weeks' gestation group but no effect on long term outcome and behaviour. Conversely in the most immature of the 24-27 weeks' gestation group, no effect has been detected either in white matter injury incidence or in long term outcome rates. Caffeine has a protective effect since a decrease in cerebral palsy has been noted in the caffeine group in a randomised trial studying caffeine versus placebo. For what concern other widely used potential protective molecules during the perinatal period, there is no evidence of cerebral protection with indometacine, nitric oxide, eythropoietin, phenobarbital, and etamsylate. Due to their specific properties, a careful evaluation of aspirin, anaesthetic drugs and tocolytics should be done in the next months.

text: UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) involved in troglitazone glucuronidation in rats and humans have been characterized to support the previous toxicity study on troglitazone in Gunn rats and to examine whether the UGT polymorphism or inhibition of bilirubin metabolism is related to the clinically reported rare cases of liver failure. The experiments using Gunn rats revealed that UGT1 enzymes are not involved in troglitazone glucuronidation and that the responsible enzyme in rats was suggested to be UGT2B2, an androsterone UGT, by inhibition studies. In humans, contribution of UGT1A1 was estimated to be about 30% of the total troglitazone glucuronidation by UGTs, using human liver microsomes and recombinant UGTs. Other UGT1 and UGT2 enzymes seem to be responsible for the rest of the troglitazone glucuronidation in humans. The multiplicity of UGTs involved in troglitazone glucuronidation in humans may allow even patients lacking bilirubin UGT (UGT1A1) activity to produce troglitazone glucuronide. These observations suggest that the polymorphism of UGT is not the reason behind the liver failure induced by the troglitazone treatment, and troglitazone does not inhibit bilirubin glucuronidation in clinical treatment. In addition, the increased bilirubin level in the blood of patients who have troglitazone-induced liver failure is a consequence of liver injury and not due to inhibition of bilirubin glucuronidation by troglitazone.

SKORPION Trapped Key Interlocks DIE CAST METAL
DIE CAST MIRROR POLISHED VERSION
Designed and manufactured in the United Kingdom, SKORPION - Idem's Trapped Key System has been developed to provide extremely robust mechanical coded key safeguarding and interlocking for hazardous machinery and applications.
The system works on the principle of releasing heavy duty coded mechanical keys in a pre-determined sequence to ensure machine power has been isolated before any access can be made into areas where hazards or dangerous machinery is present.
Once the machine control has been isolated (achieved by turning the first key in the system) the removed key from the isolator is then used to release other trapped keys to enable access to the guarded areas.
Following release of the first key (isolator) safeguarding is achieved without the need for expensive and time consuming electrical wiring - thus making the system perfect for use in harsh and challenging environments and applications.

FPA proposes revisions to Rooney Rule
After minority candidates were recently shut out by NFL teams for 15 top jobs, the Fritz Pollard Alliance wants the Rooney Rule to include coordinators, assistant head coaches and club president positions.
The proposal sent Tuesday to league executives came a week after no minorities were hired for eight coaching vacancies and seven general manager openings. There are only four minority head coaches going into the 2013 season, the fewest since 2003.
"I think the league recognizes that these are the challenges we are dealing with when it relates to diversity and this is a plan of action that they can accept and be willing to work with," John Wooten, chairman of the Fritz Pollard Alliance Foundation said. "I feel very comfortable that this will be extended into the Rooney Rule."
Robert Gulliver, the NFL's executive vice president of human resources, said in a statement last week the hiring results were "disappointing" and anticipated making revisions.
In a letter to Gulliver and Jeff Pash, the NFL's executive vice president and general counsel, the alliance said: "We believe pipeline issues are a part of the reason we've seen a reduction in head coaches of color over the past few years, and this expansion will diversify the head coaching pipeline."
With teams trending toward hiring coaches with offensive backgrounds, it's important for minorities to hold coordinator positions. Baltimore's Jim Caldwell and Pep Hamilton, hired last week by Indianapolis, are the only minority offensive coordinators in the NFL.
Caldwell, who led the Colts to a Super Bowl appearance in his first season in 2009, didn't even get an interview for a coaching vacancy this offseason.
"In this quarterback-dominated era, it seems clubs are increasingly looking for offensive coaches to fill head coaching positions in particular, and far too few minority coaches have been given offensive coordinator and play-calling responsibilities," said Cyrus Mehri, co-founder and counsel of the FPA. "We want to see a special focus on offensive coordinator and play calling duties going forward. We have many experienced wide receiver and running back position coaches ready to be coordinators now."
Wooten said the Rooney Rule for coordinators wouldn't apply to just-hired coaches because "it wouldn't be fair to them" going into their interviews.
"We made a differential in that the rule extends to a sitting coach when he starts to hire coordinators and assistant head coaches," Wooten said. "It wouldn't be fair to a coach coming in because that's one of the real positives of a new coach when he's sitting in that interview is to be able to tell them exactly who his staff will be and who has committed to coming with him."
The alliance also proposed a reinstatement of the league's front office and coaching symposia to train coaches and front office personnel for future opportunities.
There's never been a minority team president.
"That's very important now because the president is very much involved in the selection process," Wooten said.
The Rooney Rule was implemented in 2003 and named after Pittsburgh Steelers chairman Dan Rooney, who pushed for it. Before the diversity rule, there had only been six minority head coaches in the NFL in more than 80 years. Since then, 12 have been hired.
The Fritz Pollard Alliance is a group of minority coaches, front office and scouting personnel established 10 years ago.

The biggest mistake a poker player can make is to be too eager. Seeing mediocre hands can make him impatient or reckless. That’s a recipe for disaster in a poker game. Here are some tips to make your poker game more exciting and less fraught with anxiety. A little research can go a long way, and you’ll find some of the best poker tips on the Internet. But don’t forget to have fun playing poker!
One of the basic rules of poker is that all players must ante (usually one dollar), or put an amount into the pot. They then each have a chance to see their cards. If they don’t, they can discard up to three of them and take new ones from the top of the deck. If no one folds, the betting round ends. The winner of the hand will then take home the pot. A good poker hand requires the player to be attentive and observant of the other players’ actions.
Another basic rule of poker is to always show your cards. If your opponent is all in, don’t raise. Your opponent will most likely fold and keep the chips. In that case, you can either bluff or fold a junk hand. Just don’t hide your hand unless you’re completely sure that it’s a good one! As long as you’re aware of how your opponents play the game, you’ll never be defeated.
A good poker player will never blame their dealers if they lose a hand. This will make everyone uncomfortable and ruin the atmosphere of the table. It’s a good idea to stick with sound poker strategies and be aware that your opponents might make bad decisions that result in a losing hand. It’s far better to be a good poker player than to be a bad one. That way, you’ll never feel the pain from losing a hand to a clueless player.
A king is a good hand against a set of aces. A pair of kings is good against a set of twos or a flush. And a full house is good against a pair of quads. This is an example of what can happen in a poker game. And you can see why poker hands are so crucial. But how do you make your hand better? Keep reading to learn the basic rules and tips.
When more than one player remains, the game ends in a showdown. During the showdown, players reveal their hidden cards and evaluate their hands. The player with the best hand wins the pot. Poker hands are made up of five cards. Each combination of five cards counts, but they can be any combination of cards. Some of the best hands in poker are a straight flush, a pair of kings, or a four of a kind.
While poker is largely a game of chance, the psychology and skill of the game help players improve their odds. The following primer outlines the basics of poker and the psychology of poker. It will also give you a better idea of the psychology and rules of poker. There are different levels of poker, and everyone will find one that suits them best. And once you master poker basics, you can move on to the next level and make it even better.

Bezos invests in robotics firm
- Eric Engleman
- Staff Writer
Amazon.com CEO Jeff Bezos has invested in a Cambridge, Mass.-startup called Heartland Robotics that is working with industrial robots, according to reports. Heartland is still in stealth mode, but says on its website that it's "combining the power of computers -- embodied in robots -- and the extraordinary intelligence of the American workforce, to increase productivity and revitalize manufacturing." That kind of technology could be useful to Amazon's fulfillment centers, which store and ship millions of products for the ecommerce giant.
Heartland raised a total of $7 million in funding. Bezos took part in the deal through his personal investment vehicle, Bezos Expeditions, Xconomy and Mass High Tech report. One of Heartland's co-founders is Rodney Brooks, a professor of robotics at MIT and founder of iRobot, a maker of robots for the government, military and consumers (including a circular vacuum-cleaning robot that glides over the floor).
Bezos Expeditions and Heartland Robotics didn't immediately respond to a request for comment. Bezos has spent a lot of time trying to make Amazon's network of fulfillment centers more lean and efficient -- which might explain his interest in industrial robots. Are we going to see giant metal arms packaging up boxes at Amazon warehouses?

(12-2-20) While the MED Foundation of Mercer Health canceled the 2020 Mercer Health Charity Ball due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the affiliated Corvette Reverse Raffle continued as planned. Beginning Monday, November 16 through Friday, November 20, 150 tickets were pulled and announced each day on Facebook. Beginning at 7:00 p.m. on Saturday, November 21, the remaining 250 tickets were drawn.
Moorman, Hartings & Company, the local business that both sponsors and supervises the annual Corvette Raffle, pulled the remaining tickets and Dr. Edward Hosbach, family physician at Mercer Health Medical Group, provided live updates via Mercer Health’s Facebook.
Deb Hemmelgarn, Director of the MED Foundation, shared –
“Mercer Health was devastated to announce the cancellation of the 2020 Charity ball. While we knew it was the best decision for the health and safety of our community, it was still a disappointment. We made the very best of it and continued on with the raffle – we tried to come up with innovative ways to make it fun and interactive for people watching at home.”
The winner of the 2020 Blade Silver Metallic Corvette Stingray Coupe was purchased by Mallory Clark of Paulding, Ohio, with ticket number 798.

Since launching last year, serial fiction startup Serial Box has been featured from coast to coast including stories on NPR, Wired, BuzzFeed and i09. Serial Box was called “a godsend for a niche market of readers” by The Chicago Tribune.
As one of the flagship serials from Serial Box with tens of thousands of readers across multiple platforms, Tremontaine has made waves in the serial, LGBTQ, and fan fiction community.
Tremontaine introducers readers to a world where ambition, love affairs, and rivalries dance with deadly results. In this serial, Ellen Kushner and a team of writers return readers to the world of scandal and swordplay introduced in her cult-classic novel Swordspoint. Readers familiar with the series will find a welcome homecoming while new fans will learn what makes Riverside a place they will want to visit again and again. Tremontaine follows Diane, Duchess Tremontaine, whose beauty is matched only by her cunning; Rafe Fenton, a handsome young scholar with more passion than sense; Ixkaab Balam, a tradeswoman from afar with skill for swords and secrets; and Micah, a gentle genius whose discoveries herald revolution. Sparks fly as these four lives intersect in a world where politics is everything, and outcasts are the tastemakers.
Team-written by some of today’s most exciting authors, Tremontaine season 3 is brought to you by Ellen Kushner, Joel Derfner, Karen Lord, Delia Sherman, Racheline Maltese, Paul Witcover, Tessa Gratton, and Liz duffy Adams.
About Seral Box:
A new kind of publishing company for a new age.
While technology has rapidly evolved, the way publishers and writers bring books to readers really hasn’t. Storytelling in TV has become more sophisticated and multilayered, podcasts have risen to mainstream media status—but ebooks are just books on digital devices, not easier, more fun, or more social than they were before.
Serial Box is here to change all of that: artfully blending together the best of series television and the convenience of ebooks and audiobooks to bring readers a new form of story telling. Releasing fiction serials over the course of 10-16 week seasons, Serial Box is about delivering addictive episodes straight to the user’s digital device to be read or listened to anytime, anywhere.
Taking a few pages from the world of television, Serial Box hires a team of a talented and award-winning writers to collaborate on each serial, pulling the best ideas to develop great characters and craft a narrative that captivates readers over the course of the season. A new ensemble of writers works on each series, so each will vary in genre and length, but they’ll always be entertaining page-turners that keep you wondering what will happen in next week’s episode.
What is the best process for researching before writing a historical fiction? by Liz Duffy Adams
This piece originally appeared on Quora. You can find a link here.
Tremontaine is the critically acclaimed prequel to Ellen Kushner’s beloved Riverside novels, which developed a cult following beginning with Swordspoint in 1987. The “Fantasy of Manners” focuses on decadent world building and interpersonal intrigue, and has been noted for its progressive expression of gender and sexuality. Team-written by some of today’s most exciting authors, Tremontaine season 3 is brought to you by Ellen Kushner, Joel Derfner, Karen Lord, Delia Sherman, Racheline Maltese, Paul Witcover, Tessa Gratton, and Liz Duffy Adams. The first episode is available for free at Serial Box and can be found here. (link: http://bit.ly/TremS3RST)
Before co-writing a guest episode for Tremontaine (with Delia Sherman), I created the historical series Whitehall for Serial Box. And before that, I wrote plays set in the Restoration period (Or,) and 1702 New England (A Discourse on the Wonders of the Natural World), and I’m currently doing research for a play set in Elizabethan England. And based on my experience, the best way to write historical fiction is to spend years doing what I call “accidental research.” That is, to fall in love with a period in history, read works written in that period, rather than historical fiction written now and set there, steep yourself deeply in another time, another way of thinking, another way of speaking and writing, so that when you come to create your own story, it feels more like vising a country you know very well, than like arriving as a stranger in a strange land hastily trying to interpret their customs and language.
Before I wrote Or, (about Restoration playwright Aphra Behn, King Charles II, and actress Nell Gwynne), I had spent years immersed in the period. I’d studied and performed Restoration theater as a young actress, read and seen many plays of the period, visited London to see remnants of that time’s architecture, read the diaries of Pepys and Evelyn—all for sheer pleasure. Because from the first time I rehearsed a scene from Congreve’s Way of the World as an acting student I fell in love with the wit, the style (the clothes!), a certain brave and carefree way of engaging with a dangerous world. And I wanted to spend more time in that world. By the time it occurred to me to write the play, and later to set Whitehall in the same period, all the deliberate research I had to do was in nailing down the specific timelines and events, and boosting my understanding of the details of people’s lives. That was a lot of work, still, of course! But I already had an instinctive understanding, a gut feeling, of what that turning point in history was particularly about, at least to me.
So of course, that’s not a helpful answer if you aren’t already years into steeping in another period but you want to write fiction set there! So my abbreviated answer is: steep yourself now. Read everything you can get your hands on from the period, not only about it. Of course, present-day work about the past is part of the research process. But nothing can take the place of reading what people wrote then.
In another example, for my play set in the aftermath of the Salem witch crisis I found and read an 80 page sermon published in 1692, “Wonders of the Invisible World,” from which I got both my title, and a strong (and startling in many ways, to me) idea of how certain powerful men of the time justified executing accused witches, and how that mindset resonates with certain ways of thinking today. If all I knew of the period was, say, another play set there but written in the 20th century, The Crucible, I would be arguing with or echoing a near-contemporary, rather than engaging with something true and real about another time.
Maybe another way to think of it is, to write about the past, you have to travel to the past and spend some time there. And what’s historical fiction but a kind of time travel, the only kind we have?

Dining at Rita is like eating in the living room of owners Kelda Hains, Paul Schrader and Kahlivia Russell. The restaurant is set in a small workers’ cottage at the bottom of Aro Valley, just a short walk from Cuba Street.
Wednesday to Saturday evenings, you can order a seasonally led three-course set meal – starter, main and dessert – served in two staggered seatings from 5.30pm. The food is simple yet sublime and there’s always a vegetarian set-menu option available.
The interior is pared back and comfortable, and the largest group size taken is six people (one per sitting), which ensures the vibe remains intimate as Schrader looks after the room with attentive, intuitive service. It’s a special experience.

Whether you are in the southern jungles of Nepal, the culturally rich valleys or high in the mountains, taking a village tour you will witness traditional life in Nepal intact. It is a fascinating opportunity to discover people living a life that seems frozen in time.
More than 75 percent of Nepal's population is dependent on agriculture, animal husbandry, and fishing, which shows that the majority of the Nepal's population live in villages. Visit a village and learn more about Nepal.
Guests can learn a lot about farming from the people in the village; about the time and season of cultivation and time for harvesting. They will show their natural skills, making ends meet using nothing more than natural resources. What amazes visitors is how they seem so happy with so little. This is true for most village people in Nepal and that impacts the visitors.
Community homestays are giving visitors an opportunity to experience life in a village. Stay with a family in a remote village, eating with them and watching their traditions first hand. You get a peek into rural Nepal at close quarters and some of these also include cultural programs, indigenous songs and dances performed by local youth, something you will take back home and remember for a long time.

Lonely boy is a single by Andrew Gold. It is from his album What's wrong with this picture?. There is great similarity between the lyrics of the song and Golds own life. The opening sentence is "He was born on a summer day, 1951" (Gold was born on 2 August of that year). The second verse begins with "In the summer of ' 53 his mother brought him a sister", in that year, Andrew's sister Mary is born. In contradiction of the text has Gold always denied that the song was about himself . The rest of the lyrics of the song seems to point there. It's about the same child-rearing method of first his parents and then by his sister. Both were trying to protect their child (excessive) and that gave children who feel lonely felt ("we'll teach him what we learned, ah yes just what we learned, we'll dress him up warmly"). There are multiple versions of this song.The song distinguished himself from other songs by the frequent use of syncopation.
B-side was Must be crazy of the same LP.
Paul Thomas Anderson used the song in the music of his Boogie Nights, in which a dishwasher in a restaurant in short time becomes porn star, but at the same time, friend and family "loses" and only get listed. In 2007 (unrelated) Farrah and Lazlo Bane the on.

Two of the UFC's most respected warriors will meet for a second time on April 21, as Frankie Edgar battles Cub Swanson in the UFC Fight Night co-main event at Atlantic City's Boardwalk Hall.
The featherweight matchup is a rematch of a 2014 showdown won by Edgar via fifth-round submission.
In the UFC Fight Night main event, which airs live on FS1, Edson Barboza takes on Kevin Lee in a meeting of lightweight contenders. Tickets are on sale now.
The fighting pride of Toms River, New Jersey, former lightweight champion Edgar has not fought in the Garden State since defeating Spencer Fisher in November 2007, making this a homecoming over 10 years in the making. And after winning seven of his last nine, Edgar is eager to get back into the title conversation by beating Swanson, who is 4-1 in his last five bouts, a stretch that includes Fight of the Night wins over Dooho Choi and Artem Lobov.

José Aldo Named To UFC Hall Of Fame Class Of 2023
UFC today announced that former WEC and UFC featherweight champion José Aldo will be inducted into the UFC Hall of Fame’s ‘Modern Wing’ as a member of the Class of 2023.


THE Government’s Air Accident Investigation Branch has found no evidence of technical failure in the Super Puma helicopter which crashed off Shetland, killing four of the oil workers on board.
In a special bulletin, issued today, AAIB investigators have revealed that, to date, they have uncovered no evidence of a “causal technical failure” in the CHC-operated Super Puma AS332L2 helicopter at the centre of the Sumburgh Head disaster.
But detailed investigations, including analysis of the cockpit flight data recorder, recovered from the crash scene last week, are continuing at the branch’s headquarters in Farnborough.
Last week the Civil Aviation Authority backed the controversial decision to allow flights of Super Pumas over the North Sea to resume and said there was no evidence to suggest the Sumburgh Head disaster had been caused by “an airworthiness or technical problem.”
The British aviation regularity authority described the decision of the oil industry’s helicopter safety group to allow Super Pumas to take to the skies again as “appropriate.”
A special bulletin, issued by the AAIB, appears to confirm the CAA claims.
It states: “To date, no evidence of a causal technical failure has been identified. However, detailed examination of the CVFDR (combined voice and flight data recorder) and the helicopter wreckage is continuing.”
Duncan Trapp, vice president of safety and quality at CHC Helicopters said the AAIB bulletin appeared to confirm that the disaster had been caused by an “isolated event” which was not related to technical issues with the aircraft.
He said: “We have received the update from the UK Air Accident Investigation Branch. It confirms that the available information continues to indicate that this tragic accident was an isolated event and no technical failure has been identified”
He said “CHC people are continuing to help those involved in the accident, support investigations led by the AAIB and Police Scotland, and understand and meet the needs of our customers. We are dedicating resources to keeping customers and passengers informed, and we are working with customers and industry safety groups to answer questions coming from the offshore community.
“In the UK, we are returning to normal operations with AS332L, AS332L1 and EC225 aircraft and working with our customers on resuming service with the AS332L2. The L2 is already in service in other parts of the world.”
Mr Trapp added: “Our thoughts remain with the loved ones of those lost in the accident and with the passengers and crew - and we continue to provide whatever support is needed.”
A spokesman for the helicopter’s manufacturer, Eurocopter, said: “We are aware the bulletin has been issued and we will continue to support and help the investigation as much as possible.”
He added: “The findings confirm that the helicopter ‘was intact’ upon striking the sea, as previously suggested, and ‘both engines were delivering power until impact.’”
Sarah Darnley, 45, from Elgin, Gary McCrossan, 59, from Inverness, Duncan Munro, 46, from Bishop Auckland, and George Allison, 57, from Winchester, lost their lives when the helicopter went down close to shore on a flight to Sumburgh from the Borgsten Dolphin rig on 23 August.
The Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB) said the investigation was ongoing.

Checked them late last night. Sure enough loose and Not long for this world.Be sure you grease the two fittings on that front pump driveshaft, two of the most neglected ones on a hoe, can cost thousands to repair the damage that shaft can cause if it lets go!
I tried looking them up but what I found not sure it is the correct U joint for the pump drive shaft
Found this number
New Holland Spider Part # 218353replaced by this number
I would like to get the set with the injection point on the end cap as well
to make greasing much easier.
Have not been able to confirm these numbers are correct but do want to have u joints in hand before taking the front of the TLB apart.
Don't want to spend $3-4 hundred on a complete shaft.
Edit : Sometimes the obvious escapes me.
Messick's has a complete parts look up and order set up .
I will get some parts ordered later today.

US factory output rebounded in May
- From: AAP
- June 17, 2014
US manufacturing output rose in May after shrinking in April, led by greater production of vehicles, computers and furniture.
THE Federal Reserve on Monday said factory output rose 0.6 per cent in May after dipping 0.1 per cent the previous month. April's figure was revised upward from an initial estimate of a 0.4 per cent decline.Americans are buying more cars, and businesses are ordering more machinery and other goods. Those trends are fueling factory production. Car sales reached a nine-year high in May. Overall industrial production, which includes manufacturing, mining and utilities, also rose 0.6 per cent in May. It had fallen 0.3 per cent in April. Mining output, which includes oil and gas production, jumped 1.3 per cent, while utility output declined 0.8 per cent, its fourth straight drop.

The UK film and television industry is to launch a series of anti-piracy ads that spoof classic films such as Jerry Maguire, Reservoir Dogs and The Sixth Sense, one of which can be seen for the first time here.
The nationwide cinema campaign, called "You Make the Movies", launches tomorrow night and seeks to convince digitally savvy younger viewers that illegal downloading prevents good films from being made. It also aims to thank viewers for supporting film-making and their favourite actors by legally buying DVDs and downloads and going to the movies.
The series of four cinema ads, developed by the Industry Trust for IP Awareness, were directed by Steve Bendelack, who has directed comedies such as League of Gentlemen and Little Britain.
The ads, which also include a spoof of Toy Story to target a youth audience, have been voiced by Adulthood actor Noel Clarke.
The cinema campaign will be supported by an outdoor ad campaign, which will run on the Piccadilly digital site as well as billboards in shopping centres and pubs, pushing a "pro-copyright" message.
"This kind of public education campaign can complement the government's plans to introduce legal measures to tackle online copyright infringement by inspiring consumers to want to choose legal content formats," said Liz Bales, director general of the Industry Trust.
The four ads have been developed by ad agency The Creative Partnership and follow the first "You Make The Movies" campaign, which was launched in April last year, which spoofed films including Jaws, The Life of Brian and The Lord of the Rings.
These campaigns have replaced the old "piracy is a crime" approach, which was based around the message that illegal downloading was the same as stealing a car, handbag or TV. Those ads ran in cinemas from 2004 to 2007, and on DVDs in the UK for a further year.

A Brief History of the Western Cowboy Boot July 11 2016
Historically, horsemen have relied on protective footwear with a higher heel for safe, efficient horseback riding. No one can agree on the inventor of the first cowboy boot and where that boot was made. Some historians argue in favor of the Huns while other historians are positive the first cowboy boots came from Kansas.
The cowboy boot style we are familiar with today is influenced by several prominent boot styles, including the Wellington boot, which came from Britain's Duke of Wellington. The original Wellington boot was a simple leather boot with a straight top and a low heel. Another influential early boot style that many early cowboys wore was the Hessian boot with a V-cut in the front. Some Hessian boots also had a leather or silk tassel hanging down in the V.
Finally, the Coffeyville-style cowboy boots which started in Coffeyville, Kansas around 1870, typically featured black leather and a low heel. The front of the boot or “graft” was higher than the back and often a different color. Many Texas cowboys had a lone star inset in the graft.
Through the late 1800s, the cowboy boot design continued to evolve. The European cavalier boot style, which featured high quality leather and higher heels, influenced many cowboy boot designs. Until the 1950s, the cowboy boot toes were rounded or square. Then pointed toe cowboy boots were introduced. The pointy toe makes it easier for the cowboy to get his foot into the stirrup.
During the 1920s and 1930s, the cowboy boot really took off as a fashion statement, largely because of the rise in radio shows and movies centered around the Wild West. There were some years in this time period with as many as two dozen Wild West movie releases. Originally the exterior stitching was done in brown or black, but during the 1940s, colors were introduced. Boot makers also began to experiment with varying inlays and overlays, sewing pictures and other creative designs into the boots, including eagles, cacti, horses, and horseshoes.
In the 1950s, rodeos became a popular type of entertainment, and country music was on the rise. As a result, cowboy boot popularity skyrocketed. Over the decade, boot makers crafted millions of pairs of cowboy boots in all colors and styles. From this point on, movies and other popular entertainment have heavily dictated cowboy boot trends. If a famous star wears cowboy boots in a blockbuster flick, it's very likely that style of boots will be in high demand soon afterward.
Today the cowboy boot remains an essential element of American culture, particularly in Texas and the Southwest. The versatile style makes them an appealing footwear choice for people from all walks of life.
