Tape-Drive Carbon/Polyester - Cruising Genoa

A Beneteau First 31.7 with Tape-Drive Carbon Polyester full-batten main and Passagemaker furling genoa.

Tape-Drive Carbon earns its name from the black, carbon fiber tapes used on the sails. The matrix of load-bearing carbon tapes can be applied to a range of skin materials.

Tape-Drive Carbon Polyester is made up of a grid of carbon fiber tapes bonded to a sail made with polyester laminates. This combination of materials is an economical option for boats under 45-feet compared to sails made with aramid laminates. Shown below are two common polyester laminate options: Dimenison Polyant’s PM05T (the T stands for single sided taffeta), PM10T (for bigger boats because it has a denser weave of polyester yarns). While the polyester yarns have more stretch than aramid yarns, smaller boats don’t generate the high loads that bigger boats do. Also sailors have to balance the performance vs. the price for themselves.

Tape-Drive Carbon Polyester sails are not all black, which makes them look more traditional.

A single carbon tape on PM05T, the most commonly used polyester laminate for Tape-Drive sails.

Two different styles of polyester laminates made by Dimension Polyant for Tape-Drive sails. The taffetas and films also come in grey.

Ludwig Field

Maryland Athletics
Print RSS
Since its opening in 1995, state-of-the-art Ludwig Field has been the home of the Terrapin men's and women's soccer teams as well as playing host to numerous other local soccer events throughout the past eight years.

Due to the expanding horizon of Terrapin soccer and the growing interest in its achievement on the field, the University of Maryland embarked on a project that would bring the level of the facility on par with the excellence of the programs that played there.

The $2.5 million facility was dedicated on Sept. 16, 1995, and is surely a cornerstone of collegiate soccer throughout the nation.

The facility is an integral part of new construction for Maryland athletics. The complex is fully lighted with an all-weather track and sodded Bermuda grass playing field. The most recent update for the facility is the installation of a permanent press box in 2008.

The permanent lights allow for commonly scheduled night games. The lights also allow Maryland the ability to host NCAA tournaments and nationally televised games.

In addition to the collegiate games played at Ludwig Field, the complex has played host to numerous U.S. and professional soccer matches, as well.

In addition to the high level of competition created by the excellent playing surface at Ludwig Field, the complex was also created with the local soccer fan very much in mind. The field is located directly adjacent to Parking Lot 1 and close to the University Boulevard  entrance.

The facility is named after lifetime Terrapin friends Bob and Louise Ludwig.

ClearVue Graphics Window Graphic - 16x54 Christmas Woman FTY-002-16-54

Item Description
Design: Clearvue Graphics Fantasy Series Dimensions: 16x54 (Small Truck) See-through window graphics are printed on mechanically perforated vinyl. This vinyl has a sticky adhesive on one side protected by a peel away release layer. This perforated material known as window perf is made by many companies around the United States. All see-through window graphics are printed on basically the same material. The difference between graphic companies is what they print on this material! The beauty of window perf is that it is incredibly low tech comprised of 50% vinyl and 50% holes. Human eyes absorb light reflected from objects. When someone looks at the image on your window their eyes absorb the light being reflected off of the printed image. The holes cannot be seen. The graphic looks like a solid image! The sticky side of the graphic which faces the glass is black. Looking out from inside the vehicle your eyes absorb light reflected off objects outside the vehicle such as buildings cars trees etc. Your eyes blend the black material on the inside with the images seen through the holes creating the illusion that there is nothing on your window. The resulting effect will amaze you! These graphics apply to the outside of the window and will not effect or be effected by window tints of factory window defrosters. PRIVACY AND UV PROTECTION Another benefit of having this material on your window is UV protection. ClearVue Graphics block 50% of the sun’s UV rays. These rays are responsible for fading vehicle interiors and heating the cab. ClearVue Graphics will keep your vehicle cooler and preserve the interior from fading. Because these graphics prevent outside viewing into your vehicle you will enjoy a dramatic increase in privacy as you drive down the road or while parked at a scenic location. PHOTOGRAPHS AND ILLUSTRATIONS ClearVue Graphics use high-resolution photographic images for many of our graphics. Our images are crisp clear photographs captured by photographers who are published in magazines and books including: Outdoor Life The Harley Davidson Catalog The Motorcycle Hall Of Fame American Hunter Audubon Time Life Sports Afield Skin Diver National Wildlife Field & Stream National Geographic Salt Water Fly Fishing American Angler American Hunter Big Game Adventures Bowhunter Fly Fisherman Fly Rod & Reel Gray\ s Sporting Journal Petersen\ s Hunting Shooting Sportsman Sports Afield Salt Water Sportsman Surf Surfing Powder Skiing American Cowboy and more. Amazing artists and illustrators are responsible for all non-photographic images in our catalog. These people range from teams of illustrators (as with our unequalled collection of flaming skulls and other gruesome beauties) to fine artists crafting paintings in oil acrylic and watercolors. No further information is available at this time.

Separations and changes in the early years

understanding the anxieties of parents and children from birth to four years

When babies are born they leave the warm and comfortable world of the womb and enter an unknown world. It is their first experience of separation and the beginning of a lifelong series of steps and challenges. Each stage of
the process – going to the childminder, starting school, leaving home – is marked by a separation. Our early experiences colour the ways that we respond to all the other experiences of separation during our lifetime.

The strong emotions that babies feel from birth, including joy, sadness, anxiety and rage, are partly a response to the separation from their mother. This is normal. And it is not only the baby who can feel this – mothers also have to adjust to letting go of the baby inside and facing the demands and needs of a separate human being.

It is a highly charged time emotionally for everybody, and one that represents an enormous change for the whole family.

Forming attachments

In the first year of life, children need to experience secure attachment to a caring adult. Babies often experience secure attachments with more than one adult, but for most babies the first bond with their mother is the most important. The experience of a secure attachment may also come from a carer, the extended family or another mother or father figure. Children who are able to form secure attachments are likely to be more resilient and to be able to manage stressful events better later in life.

Your new baby, your family and you

Letting go

The process of separating from your baby is a gradual one.

In the early weeks babies develop emotionally and physically from having all their needs closely met. Security comes from not having to wait too long to be fed or cuddled. Giving comfort and reassurance, and responding quickly to the baby’s needs, does not ‘spoil’ them at this stage.

Babies gradually have to learn to tolerate being part of a wider community where the needs of other children, and mother herself, also have to be met. Both you and the baby have to learn to separate yourselves from one another – to let go of that ‘all-in-oneness’ you might have had at an earlier stage.

For some mothers it can be a relief to let go of the very dependent baby stage. The baby may be equally ready to move on and, some time during the first year, the mother can really enjoy seeing her baby become more independent in playing and settling down. But for other mothers and their babies, this transition presents more of a hurdle. These mothers sometimes say ‘My baby won’t let me put her down’.

Changing your baby’s routine

Mothers and babies are all individuals with different temperaments, strengths and weaknesses, so for each mother and baby the time for change and separation will also be different.

For the baby to develop, it is necessary for you to gradually let go – to begin to say ‘no’ to your thriving baby when they demand one more feed or want to be held in your arms all the time. This is another kind of separation.

Older babies grow both emotionally and mentally through coping with the experience of their mother or carer being less available to them. This is how your baby learns to develop their thinking, their sense of themselves as a separate person from you and their capacity to cope more independently.

When babies play games like peepo, they find out that people, toys and other things that go away, reappear later. They soon become so confident that these have not disappeared forever that they learn to drop their toys on purpose. Games like these can help mothers and babies come to terms with separating – a light-hearted way of getting used to the comings and goings that are part of this developmental stage.

Moments like these can signal an opportunity to start letting go and allowing your baby to rest and play more independently. This lead may well come from the baby.

It can be difficult to keep in mind how important separating is, especially as it can arouse feelings of loss and sadness in the mother and the child. Sometimes it is the mother who is reluctant to let go, sometimes it is the baby or it may be a bit of both. You need to recognise and allow for these feelings in yourself, as well as in the baby, rather than pretending that the feelings don’t exist and trying to return to an earlier more comfortable stage.

Adjusting to change

Many mothers have concerns and anxieties about changing their baby’s routines and, especially, about letting go of the comfort and security of the breast or bottle-feed. Babies often rage and protest in such a way that mothers may become fearful that they could suffer some emotional effects – or even cause themselves physical harm. You can usually sense whether your baby will get over it and begin to adjust to the new situation or whether they need to go back to their previous routine for a little while longer.

The father, or another close adult, can play an important part at this stage by supporting the mother and helping her set limits on her availability to the baby while, at the same time, developing their own relationship with the baby.

Adoptive and foster parents have a more difficult task. They have to take into account the experience for the baby, and for them, of the earlier separation from the birth mother. This experience is part of the baby’s history and cannot be wiped out.

Useful Understanding Childhood leaflets
Grandparents and the extended family

Coping with your feelings about going to work

Women form a large proportion of the workforce and many of them have babies and young children. Some mothers work from choice, others work because they have to. There is some evidence to suggest that work can protect vulnerable mothers from postnatal depression.

Many of us still carry around in our heads the myth that being a good mother means never leaving the baby. So mothers sometimes feel some guilt and concern about being at work and worry about how it will affect their baby.

Separation is a wrench and it helps a great deal if the people around you and the baby – at home and at work – are sensitive to your feelings. Then you can approach later separations with more confidence.

Postnatal depression

Arranging childcare

Babies and young children need to feel a sense of security and continuity to enable them to thrive. You need to be confident that your child’s emotional, as well as physical, needs are met in their childcare setting. So – whatever your own feelings might be about handing over your child’s care to another person – you need to look for a situation where your child can form an attachment to a consistent carer who will be receptive and will respond sensitively and consistently to your child’s communications.

Parents may feel a home-based arrangement makes most sense for themselves and their child at the earliest stage. Comings and goings are likely to be smoother and more easily handled when the child is left with a familiar person, so childcare provided by a member of an extended family or a friend could be the most comfortable arrangement. Alternatively, home-based care can be provided by a registered childminder in the childminder’s home or a nanny in the child’s own home.

Coping with the child’s feelings about childcare

Some babies and young children are fine about being separated from their mother or carer but many of them feel some anxiety. It is very important to take particular care to address the emotional needs of your baby or young child when they are going to be separated from you while you go to work. Take time over introducing the baby to their new carer and be alert to the atmosphere of your baby’s surroundings.

It is important to plan and prepare for parting and for coming back together, as these transition times are difficult for the baby and for you. For instance, you can ease the parting by leaving your child with a loved object – a favourite teddy or piece of blanket – or something familiar of your own that smells of you and feels like part of you.

No matter what kind of childcare is arranged, babies and young children can experience separation anxiety. This means that when the mother (or another adult to whom the baby is attached – their father or a ‘mother-figure’) leaves, the baby may show signs of panic, distress or rage. Crying and clinging are normal reactions. The baby may feel they are ‘falling apart’ without the comfort of the person who is most familiar to them.

It is not unusual for the baby to be cold and withdrawn when their mother comes back, giving mother the experience of feeling rejected.

It will take a little time for you to see whether your child has settled. The tears and tantrums when you leave, and clinging or rejection when you come back, are not necessarily a sign that your child has not settled, but may be an expression of how they feel about the separation. This is to be expected when a baby moves into the wider world and has to adjust to the changes. It does not necessarily mean that you have made the wrong choice of childcare, or that you should give up work.

Starting at a pre-school or nursery school

Starting pre-school or nursery school is an important stage in the separation process and the feelings aroused or battles waged at an earlier stage often re-emerge at this point. Many children embrace this change without a backward glance. It is sometimes the mother in this situation who feels sad and disappointed at having to let go and move on.

Some children feel very ready for the stimulus of other children, toys, educational challenges and all that the new world of pre-school or nursery school has to offer. But many young children who are developing normally nevertheless find this particular stage of life very difficult. They may express their feelings through crying and clinging. They may also return to baby habits and behaviour, such as thumb-sucking, bedwetting or accidents at school, tantrums and baby language. It is as if they are giving their parents the message that they want to go backwards to a more comfortable time rather than forwards to the next stage. It is common for parents to see enormous swings between moods of great dependence and independence – a little baby one minute and an assertive and exploratory three-year-old the next.

At this stage, some children may be very withdrawn and shy within groups, while others may show aggression and rivalry with others. Parents can be reassured that these extremes of mood and behaviour are normal and are not signs that their child is disturbed.

Helping your child to settle

Parents can help their children to settle by showing them that they understand their feelings, while also encouraging them to move forward confidently. Games involving fantasy and role-playing are fun and are also an important way for children to sort out, with their peers and with their new carers, what they feel about all the changes and new experiences.

Some helpful suggestions

  • Any separation can provoke a sense of loss and be emotionally unsettling for both children and parents. Take it a step at a time – it needs to be a gradual process.
  • Some changes of routine are experienced as a separation – moving on from breast or bottle- feeds, when the baby moves out of their parents’ bedroom, if the family moves house.
  • Prepare children for any change that is coming and try not to spring it on them. It helps to talk about it and rehearse for it – by acting it out as a game, for instance.
  • Don’t slip out without saying goodbye. Your child will trust you and be more confident if you say goodbye and acknowledge their feelings directly.
  • A firm and confident goodbye at pre-school or nursery school tells your distressed child that you know they’ll be able to cope. It’s better not to hover and appear anxious.
  • Separation encourages your child’s developing independence even though it may cause stress at first.
  • Most of us thrive on a healthy mix of stable routines and new challenges. Children do, too.

A child of this age who had the attention they needed at an earlier stage, is likely to have the invaluable tools of play and language to take their development a step further. Children who can talk about their feelings as mummy leaves, or who find a way of enacting what they are going through, kite can gradually make sense of their feelings and increase their capacity to tolerate these experiences. They can then move on to exploring the whole range of opportunities that new environments have to offer.
In a good pre-school or nursery setting, young children have the opportunity to learn a range of new skills and to sort out complicated feelings about themselves and others. Through playing and learning, they find out more themselves and the world around them.
They have a chance to prepare themselves for the next step, when they will enter the more formal world of primary school.

Dear Santa: A Bambinos Guest Post

Mommy says we're supposed to sit on your lap and tell you what want for Christmas. That didn't go over too well.

So let's just keep our distance, ok?

I guess we should thank you for sending our elf, Nickala to our house. For some reason, Mommy makes us find her every single morning before we eat breakfast. Mommy says she'll tell you if we're good and then we'll get rewarded. We've been really good, ok? Let's forget the morning tantrum Peanut throws when Mommy makes us leave our binkies in our bed.We've been good.

For Christmas, we want the Wheelies Loops & Swoops Amusement Park
Mom calls our love for cars an "obsession" and she keeps telling us we can't shove our cars into the ball track. She says we have tons of cars that will fit this so let's get on this, ok?

Mommy's been trying to convince Daddy that we need a trampoline since summer. We think the couch works just fine and so does Mommy and Daddy's bed. We love bouncing in our beds when we should be sleeping, but Mommy says she's the boss.
Mom always takes Dad's tools from us too. We just want to poke stuff with the screw driver. She says we're too young for this workbench and we might choke on the parts, but we're sure you can make it happen.
 Peanut likes to push stuff and Bug likes cars so can we have this Bubble Mater too? Bug says "Bubble" all day long anyway.....

Since we like Cars so much, can we have this Lightning McQueen ride on toy? They even have a Mater one if you'd like to bring us each one.

We're really ok with sharing our toys for the most part so this year we don't have separate lists. But, Peanut really likes airplanes, can you have Disney make an animated airplane movie so Bug can get Cars stuff and Peanut can get airplanes? If anyone can tell Disney what to do, we're sure it's you.

Mommy says the holidays are about giving so can we help this family out too?

What kind of cookies do you like best. Mama says she'll make whatever kind you like. And do the reindeer still like carrots? Mommy says they ate carrots when she was little. Thanks Santa, we're glad you'll still come to our house even if we want to keep our distance.

Lovebug and Peanut

Can your elves whip up some Bubble Guppies toys? We don't want the dolls and there's not much else out there.

Peanut really likes flashlights so just bring him one of those and I can keep the other toys, ok?

  1. Hahaha so cute!! And by the way, I would probably start crying if I had to get near that Santa too. He looks kind of scary! I'm sure he's a very nice man, but there is something totally creepy about children being forced to sit on a stranger's lap if you think about it! lol

  2. Love this! Robbie has a wishlist too but on amazon. :) he got the mater mower for his birthday and he loves it still (although we don't put bubbles in it yet, I think he's still a bit too young....and he would dump them out or eat them). Christmas with little ones is so fun. :)

  3. LOVE this. So super cute. I didn't even get them any gifts the first two years- we have so many aunts and grandmothers spoiled us - but last year I had to - I mean SANTA - had to make extra preparations since they were 3 and starting to see what was up. HAVE FUN!! So cute.
    AND I AGREE about the AIRPLANE movie!! lol.

  4. This is so adorable. :) I know they deserve all this and much more...

  5. I LOVE the santa pic! And I really want that trampoline!

I'd love to hear what you have to say, I always ALWAYS write back so please make sure you have an email attached to your profile :)

John DiStaso: Republican State Committee members vote to waive fee

CONCORD - So much for that $25 fee for Republican State Committee members.

After outrage in some quarters of the rank-and-file, the GOP's executive committee on Thursday night voted to waive, though not rescind, the fee for 2013 and leave it up to the new state committee and executive committee elected in January to decide how to approach it in the future.

The vote of the 33-member executive committee was hardly unanimous.

In fact, said Republican National Committeeman Steve Duprey, only 19 of the 33 members participated in the conference call meeting and the vote to waive the fee was 11-8.

Party chairman Wayne MacDonald, who is leaving his post as of the Jan. 26 state committee meeting, said the "vote also contained a provision that a plan be devised to explore implementing it for 2014.

"This is something the full state committee could intervene into on Jan. 26 or the next executive committee meeting could address in February or thereafter in time for the 2014 annual meeting," MacDonald said.

Duprey proposed the fee last week in an attempt to boost the party's finances and make it clear to state committee members that their post entails fundraising responsibilities as well as grassroots activities.

But he voted in favor of waiving the fee on Thursday night because a message was sent, he said.

"I hope the next chairman proposes a realistic budget, and once that is adopted, everyone participates in fundraising," Duprey said.

"This, at least, was the first time we've had a discussion where we made it clear that serving on the state committee is not an honorary position, it's a working position," said Duprey.

"I wanted to have that discussion before people sought the positions on the state committee," he said. "They all now know that if they are chosen for the state committee, they will have to shoulder their share in fund-raising as well as grassroots activities."

 Hundreds gather for pro-life and pro-gun rights rallies in Concord | New Hampshire

Hundreds gather for pro-life and pro-gun rights rallies in Concord

CONCORD - Hundreds of people gathered at the State House on Saturday for back-to-back rallies on the issues of abortion and gun rights.

A Guns Across America rally, which was part of a nationwide effort, immediately followed the annual New Hampshire Right To Life's annual March For Life rally.

State Rep. David Murotake of Nashua said he came to Concord with a friend, Air Force veteran Anthony Nino. Murotake was carrying a pro-life sign, Nino a sign supporting gun rights.

"We're staying here for both rallies," Murotake said. "I think it was probably an inadvertent, coincidental back-to-back rallies. It'll be an interesting test of both the first and second amendments."

"Most people that believe in one or the other believe in both," said Kathy Peterson of Nashua, who said she came for the Right To Life rally.

At the pro-life rally, hundreds sang religious songs and prayed before marching from the State House, behind the Concord Feminist Health Center and to St. John the Evangelist Church. Several mentioned that 2013 will mark the 40th anniversary of the landmark Roe v. Wade U.S. Supreme Court decision that legalized abortion.

"While today is a very inspiring day, it's also a bittersweet day for people, you know, to have to come out here and say that killing innocent babies is just, you know, something that we're still working to try to overturn Roe v. Wade," said Ashley Pratt, executive director of Cornerstone Action and Cornerstone Policy Research, a New Hampshire-based conservative group once headed by former gubernatorial candidate Kevin Smith, who also attended the rally.

Many who attended the gun rights rally brought a firearm or two. One of them was Nick Myers of Raymond, who brought his Ruger 10/22 Takedown rifle.

"I'm here because I believe in the Second Amendment and the Constitution as a whole, in fact," Myers said. "I don't want the government to trample on our freedoms."

State Rep. Al Baldasaro, R-Londonderry, led the rally and urged attendees to contact state legislators to oppose H.R. 135, a bill that would repeal the state's stand-your-ground laws, which allows people who feel in danger to use deadly force to defend themselves, and to write to national and state representatives in support of gun rights.

"We need to say enough is enough and we will not take this no more," he said. "We must not give up one inch of our freedom."

Many at the gun rights rally bristled at media portrayals of so-called "assault weapons" or "assault rifles," including the AR-15 rifle, which reportedly was one of the guns carried by Adam Lanza when he killed 20 children and several adults during shootings at his mother's home and at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., last month.

In response to the shootings, President Barack Obama, who was the subject of much derision at Saturday's rally, proposed a sweeping series of gun control measures, including background checks, reinstatement of an assault weapons ban that expired in 2004, more funds for school resource officers and limits on magazine capacity.

Many at the rally said the media and gun control advocates made up the terms and that they would only be applicable to describe automatic versions used by police or the military and not personal, semiautomatic weapons such as the AR-15.

"When you write about this, I hope you get that right," Nino told a reporter.

The terms are used by some gun retailers and manufacturers. For example, the main page of the retailer proguns.com says the site is "your online store for AR-15 assault rifles."

Sox strand 12 in Opening Day loss to O's

BALTIMORE — Left fielder Nelson Cruz homered on the first pitch in the bottom of the seventh to give the Baltimore Orioles a 2-1 victory over the Boston Red Sox in the season opener for both teams Monday afternoon.

Cruz sent a Jon Lester fastball into the left-field seats, snapping a 1-1 tie when leading off the seventh. Lester kept the Orioles quiet before that, retiring nine of the previous 10 batters he faced before Cruz got the tie-breaking hit in his first game as an Oriole.

Boston left runners at third three times in the first six innings and finished 0-for-10 with runners in scoring position. The Red Sox stranded a total of 12 runners.

Zach Britton (1-0) got the win thanks to two innings of scoreless relief for starter Chris Tillman. Britton blanked the Red Sox in the sixth and seventh.

Evan Meek then replaced Britton and got the first two outs in the eighth. Brian Matusz came on for Baltimore with two on and two outs to finish the inning by getting catcher A.J. Pierzynski to ground out.

Tommy Hunter then made his debut as closer in the ninth and earned his first save to lock up the victory. Hunter is replacing Jim Johnson as closer after the Orioles traded him to Oakland in the offseason.

The Orioles had taken a 1-0 lead in the second, again with help from Cruz. He drew a leadoff walk and went to third when catcher Matt Wieters followed with a single. Cruz then scored on designated hitter Delmon Young's double-play grounder.

Boston tied it when center fielder Grady Sizemore led off the fourth with a solo homer that just made it on top of the right-field scoreboard off Tillman. He gave up one run on seven hits in five innings, escaping jams three times as the Red Sox repeatedly worked the count.

Tillman threw 104 pitches in five innings despite walking just one batter.

Lester gave up two runs on six hits in seven innings. He also struck out eight and walked only one, but the Red Sox couldn't get hits at the right times.NOTES: The Orioles gave Gold Gloves to CF Adam Jones, SS J.J. Hardy and 3B Manny Machado, who also got a Platinum Glove before the game. ...

The crowd of 46,685 was the 23rd straight sellout on Opening Day at Oriole Park at Camden Yards.

High-flying fun returns at New Garden Festival of Flight 2012

Pin It

Annual air show featured a host of WWII aircraft as well as aerobatic displays

By P.J. D’Annunzio, Staff Writer, The Times

A World War II B-25 bomber was one of the star attractions at the New Garden Festival of Flight, this past weekend. A large number of antique aircraft were on hand, along with music, performers and stunt flying.

NEW GARDEN — Once again the two-day New Garden Festival of Flight took to the skies to offer locals and out-of-towners alike a look at vintage aircraft and death-defying stunt flying.

Some of the aircraft featured in the highly popular World War II category included a P-51 D Mustang, the return of the B-25 Bomber “Briefing Time,” and a C-47 Transport plane used to drop 82nd Airborne Division paratroopers over France prior to the Normandy invasion. In addition to the vintage aircraft on the ground, veteran air show pilot Jim Beasley Jr. performed a flyby in his Spitfire Mk. XVIII, one of two left in existence.

There was also a sizable collection of civilian aircraft as well, and along with their military counterparts, some—such as Sean and Sue Neal’s Fairchild 24—had interesting histories.

“It was a civilian airplane that was very common in the 1940’s,” Sean Neal said of the aircraft. “This one is special in that it flew anti-submarine patrol off of the East coast in the Civil Air Patrol during World War II. They would take civilian airplanes with civilian pilots, arm them with 100 lbs. bombs and go flying seventy miles out to sea in all kinds of crummy weather and stop German submarines from blowing up our shipping.”

As with every year’s show, a classic car display was featured in tandem with the air show. This year, however, the U.S. Air Force made a unique entry with their specially designed “Stealth Car.”

A P-51 Mustang World War II fighter in “Red Tail” livery — made famous by the African-American Tuskegee Airmen of the 99th Fighter Squadron.

“The car started its life as a Dodge Challenger,” Air Force representative John Engle said. “The designer of the car was Mad Mike from the TV show ‘Pimp My Ride. Mike is a former airman and wanted to do a tribute car for the Air Force.”

Subsequently, the Air Force allowed Mike to recruit seven Air Force personnel from varying career fields to construct the vehicle. What remains stock on the car are the engine, transmission, and chassis. Every other component in and on the vehicle is of Air Force design.

“Drone technology is big in the Air Force,” Engle continued. “You can access and drive the car with something as little as an iPad. It has carbon fiber wheels, custom one of a kind sealed body with radar absorbing paint, the interior is modeled after a drone work station with flight controls and monitors in front of you.”

A World War II-era British Spitfire on the ramp at New Garden Flying Field this past weekend.

Beyond land and air vehicles, the Festival of Flight featured a wide variety of food, games for children, and a live entertainment including 1940’s themed performers:

Bill Riley and Joe Ziegler, fully adorned in Forties show-biz garb, were back to reprise the role as Bud Abbott and Lou Costello in the crowd pleasing “Ultimate Abbott and Costello Show.” Also present were the Manhattan Dolls singing group, taking the audience on a “Sentimental Journey” with a selection of boogie-woogie songs and classic standards from the Thirties and Forties.

Two injured in separate, 1-vehicle crashes

Pin It

One occurred Friday in Thornbury, the other in Westtown

homeCar1Two serious one-vehicle accidents occurred on Thursday, Nov. 22, in southwestern Chester County, the Westtown-East Goshen Regional Police Department reported.

 At 7 a.m., officers responded to the 400 block of Fox Meadow Lane in Thornbury Township for a single-vehicle crash, a department news release said. Officers learned that a 2005 Ford Escape first struck a mailbox and trashcan at one home and then traveled three-tenths of a mile down Fox Meadow Lane, where it struck two trees and  overturned, the release said.  The 20-year-old unrestrained driver, who was not identified by police, was ejected from the vehicle and was found in the roadway unresponsive, the release said.

Good Fellowship Ambulance and Medic 91 transported the driver to Crozer Hospital with life-threatening injuries, and the road was closed for four hours, the release said.  The accident remains under investigation, but police believe an illegal controlled substance and speed were factors, the release said. Fame Fire Company, West Chester Fire Police, Good Fellowship Ambulance, and Medic 91 assisted at the scene, the release said.

 At 2:35 p.m., officers responded to Rt. 926, just east of South Concord Road in Westtown Township, where they found a 2001 Dodge Dakota pickup overturned after shearing utility pole, the release said. The driver, a 41-year-old male from Oxford whom police did not name, got himself out of the vehicle, the release said. The driver reported that he was traveling westbound on 926 and lost control of his truck, the release said, adding that he was transported to Paoli Hospital with a head injury.

Rt. 926 was closed in both directions until 4:45 p.m., the release said. Westtown-East Goshen police were assisted by the Chester County Sheriff’s Office, Fame Fire Company, West Chester Fire Police, Good Fellowship Ambulance, Medic 91 and PennDOT, the release said.

Cyclist Ahead
Sharing the road safely - promoting driver awareness of cyclists.

Cyclist Ahead warning VATCS are installed to give additional emphasis to the targeted driver of cyclist activity ahead, in particular in circumstances where designated cyclist paths do not already exist or cyclists cross the driver’s path. The signs work in tandem with existing static warning signage

Drivers are not informed what speed they are traveling, rather they are advised of the approaching hazard, further enhanced by dynamic flashing pairs of horizontal corner beacons.

Importantly the VATCS are not a replacement for static signage or to be used as a repeater they area speed targeted supplementary advisory device.

Model Specific to Hazard - one size doesn’t fit all
A full range of Cyclist ahead VATCS models are available in, 24 x 24” (600 x 600), 30 x 30” (750 x 7500) and 36 x 36”(900 x 900) sizes ensuring the sign size is appropriate for the road speed.

Independently proven - long term effective
7mp/11kph reduction on average curve approach speeds maintained after 3 years - TRL 548 report 1/3rd drop in curve accident rate after 3 years-TRL 548 report

Dynamic Corner Beacons - attract drivers attention but keep message clear
An important feature of VATCS is recognising that drivers have a limited time to read and react to a warning message. This is why VATCS incorporate dynamic flashing beacons in each corner of the display to attract driver’s attention whilst importantly maintaining the warning message steady for 3 seconds.

MUTCD compliant - consistent approach
VATCS are in full compliance with the MUTCD and where deployed support a clear, consistent speed management strategy of already recognized static regulatory and warning signs.

Federally Tested
VATCS is the only traffic calming display technology that has been federally field tested on a large scale to prove long term effectiveness, with driver respect of the technology being maintained over a 5 year period.

Targeted Message - Drivers wont tune out and respond well to reasoned message
When not active VATCS blend into the background, drivers are only provided a warning when their speed dictates it to be necessary. It is proven that the best overall driver behavior change is attained when drivers see the message is reasoned and well thought out.

Clear Message - Drivers informed of the cyclist hazard ahead and requirement to Slow Down
Importantly drivers aren’t told what speed they are traveling at, rather when required they are clearly informed of the cyclist hazard ahead and the requirement for them to slow down to ensure safety of both road users.

Free WiFi Calling App On iPhone And Android Cell Phone

Posted in Best iPhone Apps, How To, Tools, Wifi Unlocker1 year ago • Written by admin1 Comment

If your like on your iPhone iOS or Android Cell Phone for free WiFi Calling on this guide, will show your the best app and how work EE Wi-Fi Call mobile company and other carrier networks in the world. Maintaining communication via the internet data on the mobile phone device is not something that is unheard of. After all we all have installed Skype,

What’s app, Viber and other apps that help you keep in touch with friends and relatives. This article is not about the online communication apps it’s about making phone calls or sending texts using your mobile phone device and your telephone number without switching to one app or another. The term is now known as Wi- Fi calling and it is available with certain carriers only. The Wi- Fi calling is certainly a new thing and only a few of the world-famous network providers can offer it as a part of their mobile plans. The entire communication is not based on Wi- Fi calling.

The old mobile networks are still in good use and everything works just as it did before. But when it comes to areas with a little network coverage like elevators, tunnels, remote villages, high hills and mountains then the WiFi calling is the perfect backup plan. You often will not even notice when the calls you are making switched from the regular network calling to the new WiFi calling option. With this option the low network coverage will not be an excuse for missing someone’s call or to end an uncomfortable conversation. The positive and the best side of this option is that you will be available everywhere and anywhere. It is not hard to activate on your mobile device and once you activate it you will forget all about it. It will work in the background whenever necessary to make sure that all your conversations are uninterrupted.

WiFi Calling

Which Network Providers Offer WiFi Calling

Being relatively new, only a few carriers can be proud to include the WiFi calling in their service description. EE and Vodafone are among the first carriers which have launched this service. (In truth Vodafone hasn’t started with the service yet, but it’s getting there soon.) Still not all mobile phone devices are able to incorporate this service into their operative system. Namely, only limited models of handsets can use Wi- Fi calling.

Free WiFi Calling

What Is WiFi Calling

There are only a few minor obstacles, if you can call them that, which may not even happen to you. It is all really a matter of bad luck. Of all the networks so far only EE WiFi Calling has really elaborated the plan with the Wi- Fi calling with Vodafone just behind it. of the other mobile networks Three and O2 are considering this option but they will deal with it properly as soon as they perfect their new apps TU Go and InTouch, respectively. These apps are also communicating tools via the power of the internet, but as Skype and Viber, they differ significantly from the Wi- Fi calling.

What Mobile Phone’s Allow WiFi Calling

The number of mobile phone models that can support this option grows by the minute. The network service providers. The carriers. Seen the importance of this option. So they are enabling as many mobile phone devices as they can.

More information how to set WiFi Calling iPhone will find information on official apple page. Here will find full settings how to do that.

Since Vodafone officially hasn’t started using the WiFi calling option the name of the mobile phone devices that support it could not be stated yet.

WiFi Calling iPhone

If you are user of THREE mobile network, you might want to be patient just a little while longer. Until then you can get their wonderful app- inTouch from both, the Apple app store or Google play. O2 have similar app to inTouch. Known as TU Go. It is compatible only with the operative system on iOS 5, iOS 6, iOS 7 iOS 8 iOS 9.

How To Tuning ON WiFi Calling Option

To be able to turn on the Wi- Fi option for now you must be user of EE WiFi Calling. Other mobile network company why allow this service. So, when you buy your mobile phone from them that supports Wi- Fi calling, all you have to do to activate it is to send a text to the number 150 with contents: Wi- Fi calling. The option will be turned on for you instantly. Just in case, you might need to check the settings menu and click the “phone app” and then just slide the Wi- Fi calling to ON.

With Samsung Galaxy s6 and Samsung Galaxy 6 edge. The procedure is slightly different and you have to open the phone app. Click the option “more” normally set in the upper part of the screen. Then click “settings” where you can turn the Wi- Fi calling on. If you use iPhone go on official iPhone page will find full information how to that. If is happen to not have WiFi on your cell phone. We here have the best WiFi Unlocker App in the world for free. With this app will use free WiFi on any ware where you are.

Do the carriers charge extra for this service? No, they don’t. This service comes as a part of their service and it is absolutely for free.

Final assembly for Australian C-27Js

Jan. 2, 2013 at 2:14 AM
Sign up for our Security newsletter

TURIN, Italy, Jan. 2 (UPI) -- The first of 10 C-27J aircraft being built by Italy's Alenia Aermacchi for the Australian air force is set for final assembly.

The C-27J is a medium-sized twin-engine turboprop transporter with a maximum speed of 374 miles per hour and a range of more than 1,000 miles carrying a 22,000-pound payload. Eight countries, including the United States operate the aircraft.

"In the tactical transport role, the C-27J provides the best possible integration with the existing Australian Defense Force fleet," Alenia Aermacchi said. "It will provide an airlift capability between the CH-47 Chinook and C-130J Hercules, as well as integrating with the much larger C-17A Globemaster."

Alenia Aermacchi said final assembly of the aircraft will be performed in Turin following transport of the plane's fuselage at a Naples plant. It is scheduled for delivery to Australia in 2015.

The manufacturing order for the C-27Js came through the U.S. Foreign Military Sales Joint Cargo Aircraft program.

Ellen Page discusses coming out on 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show'

DeGeneres, who came out as a lesbian in 1997, compared the coming out process to "releasing shame."

LOS ANGELES, May 2 (UPI) -- Ellen Page stopped by The Ellen DeGeneres Show Wednesday to discuss her famous coming-out speech.

While speaking to host Ellen DeGeneres, the Juno actress explained she was "the most nervous [she'd] ever been in [her] life while delivering her coming-out speech at the Human Rights Campaign's first annual THRIVE conference in February.

"I think my biggest fear of doing it was even just having a panic attack, quite frankly," said Page.

"But I was just so ready to do it and quite frankly so excited to do it. So it was a combination of such thrill to finally be at that place in my life where I was able to do that and grateful to have that moment. And grateful to you because you did it in a time when it was much harder and much scarier."

DeGeneres, who came out as a lesbian in 1997, later compared the coming-out process to "releasing shame."

"It's toxic," Page continued. "We talked about this a bit. You think you're at a place where you're, like, 'Oh, I'm happy to be gay' ... and honestly, it wasn't until making that choice and doing that where I realized I was carrying a tremendous amount of shame and guilt for not being out. I felt isolated from the LGBT community and now I don't."

Page's interview with DeGeneres will air on May 27, but you can check out an excerpt below.

NHL: Atlanta 4, Florida 1

Nov. 9, 2007 at 10:57 PM

SUNRISE, Fla., Nov. 9 (UPI) -- Ilya Kovalchuk scored for the eighth time in four games Friday night in helping the Atlanta Thrashers win their third straight contest, 4-1 over Florida.

Ondrej Pavelec made 36 saves for the Thrashers, who have gone 7-3 under Don Waddell after an 0-6 start to the season. Those early struggles led to the dismissal of Coach Bob Hartley.

Florida's only goal came when Nathan Horton tied the game, 1-1, with his third goal of the season early in the third period.

Chris Thorburn grabbed a loose puck to the left side of the net moments later and beat Tomas Vokoun with what turned out to be the game-winner, sending the Panthers to their third loss in four games,

Kovalchuk's goal came with 5:16 to play and gave the Thrashers a 4-1 lead. He leads the league with 14 goals.

COL FB: Fresno State 24, Utah State 17

Dec. 8, 2013 at 2:15 AM

FRESNO, Calif., Dec. 8 (UPI) -- Derek Carr threw for 404 yards and three scores for No. 22 Utah State Saturday and the Bulldogs bested Utah State 24-17 for the Mountain West championship.

Carr completed 36-of-53 passes and overcame a pair of interceptions for the Bulldogs (11-1), who claimed their first outright conference title since 1991.

Fresno State yielded just 304 total yards and recorded nine sacks in rebounding from a 62-52 loss to San Jose State last week, which ended its hopes for a BCS bowl bid.

The Aggies (8-5) muffed their chance for a comeback when Dalen Jones intercepted Utah State's Craig Harrison late in the game.

In the moments after the crash, radiation emitted by the huge rock, mixed up the DNA of all the creatures in the vicinity. Half-man and half-animal, the Jungo unite behind Ongh and swear to never return to their cages.

Lvl 1:
Power : 4
Damage : 2
Ability : None(Yet)
Bonus : +2 Life

Lvl 2:
Power : 5
Damage : 3
Ability : None(Yet)
Bonus : +2 Life

Lvl 3:
Power : 7
Damage : 3
Ability : Unlocked at Lvl 4.. Ok??
Bonus : Do I need to keep repeating????

Lvl 4:
Power : 7
Damage : 5
Ability : (Finally!)Stop : Power +3
Bonus: ...(Obvious Enough?)

In overall, this is a reasonably good card. With the solid stats 7 and 5 at max level, he is good enough to fight without his bonus, which only makes him way stronger. With ability and bonus, this guys turns into a 10/9 monster. Although not worth the original price of 10k, his price should be about 4-5k, as the Jungo need solid people like him, Ongh, Chill and others, so they are effective with or without their bonuses/abilities. Excellent addition to Jungo, although overshadowed by dinosaur Ongh and Sylth. Excellent artwork as well.

Overall: 7.9/10.

Green Faces Please!!

Greow = 7/5 at last lvl wth Ability = Stop: Power +3 and Bonus = +2 Life

>7 power is pretty solid
>SOA doesn't affect this card
>>potential of 10 power thanks to SOA
>5 dmg
>>7 with fury so can become a 2 hit K.O with lots of cards
>>>can make a 9 life difference with the addition of the +2 life

>4 stars
>SOB could harm the card, but not that much

Overall: 8.5/10
I really like this card and the potential it has. 10/7 is a great potential for this card, plus adding another 2 life for yourself adds insult to injury. However, it could only get 10 power if SOA is in play, and that could be maneuvered around. Still, I do prefer this card over Scotty, mostly because of the power it can have, which is quite amazing. A card worth having.

He lost out to a Gorilla? As you were!

The Jungo Clan is becoming more and more difficult to play in Elo... Not because it has a lack of cards but simply because it has too many cards to choose from... Greow is an Elo monster... Capable of immense power against the very common GHEIST/Roots deck in Elo...

Pros- 7/5 Stats which is the average solid 4* base stats nowadays... +2 Life makes a 7 point life gap for a 4* very nice... Against SoA because a 10/5 (+2 life) wall... For a 4 star... I rest my case. High power and decent damage make this guy a must have for a Jungo Elo Deck...

Cons- SoB of course is standard for any clan and Jungo especially... More prevalent however is the incredible 4* competition... Scotty (for Damage), Buba (far more consistent 10 power), Chill (higher damage and attack Manipulation) and Slyth (Elo banned so frankly irrelevant) and the new Eggman (heal)... Mixed in with the other powerful 5* in Jungo it is very hard to make a fit in Greow... Maybe for a half deck or for T2 combat...

Rating (For Jungo)... 6.5/10... It breaks my hear to say this about Greow because he is a phenomenal card with many different capabilities in multiple deck formats... but he is now in a clan that is crowded with 4/5* that are great in Elo... If Greow belonged to a different clan his skills would be more accepted... Still for Half Decks and T2 Greow is still a consistent card with many uses... (Non-Mono-Elo Rating...8.5/10)
For Greow's Non-Mono-Elo Potential he earns my Official Seal of Approval

Wednesday 01/08/2012, 18:45

to people who compare Buba with Greow ...
1. Greow was released nearly 1 year before buba
2. Greow is a rare card an Buba is common
3. Buba is weak against SoA , Buba is only playable in mono decks while Greow gets stronger with soa.and GHEIST/Roots are extremely common in ELO mode
Now , stop saying "omg omg Buba is much cheaper and better why should I buy him?????"

Friday 31/05/2013, 11:57

Has anyone noticed that every stop card in the Jungo has the number 3. +3 poer or +3 damages etc

Philips expands suite of innovative imaging solutions with technology designed to reduce pressures facing high-volume hospitals and clinics

Andover, MA – Royal Philips (NYSE: PHG, AEX: PHIA) today announced the launch of Affiniti, a new ultrasound system designed to enable global hospitals and health systems to overcome the demands of increasing patient volumes and cost pressures. Making its debut at the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Congress 2014 in Barcelona this week, Affiniti provides innovative technology to help radiology/ultrasound departments facing more patients with fewer resources deliver high quality patient care.

''Affiniti was designed with the everyday challenges of healthcare professionals in mind,'' said Vitor Rocha, CEO and Senior Vice President of Ultrasound for Philips Imaging Systems. ''We have leveraged more than 45 years of ultrasound innovation to deliver a reliable system that combines the excellent image quality our customers expect for fast, confident diagnosis, with advanced tools to help them improve efficiency and workflow and allow for the very best standard of care.''

Built on the same architecture as Philips' ground breaking EPIQ ultrasound, Affiniti meets the needs of physicians who are challenged with treating large volumes of patients on any given day. Philips collaborated with hundreds of physicians around the world, who provided feedback to help inform Affiniti's ergonomic design, which led to an intuitive, easy-to-use system. Philips put the system through 4,500 hours of reliability testing with the demands of a busy medical practice and heavy workload in mind.

''With our high patient volume, cost pressures and throughput demands, my department/clinic/facility needs a system that offers high performance, a range of configuration options and low total cost of ownership while still offering superior image quality,'' said Dr. Martin Penicka, Cardiologist at the Cardiovascular Center Aalst, OLV Clinic, Aalst, Belgium.

''Philips Affiniti enables us to get to the level of detail we need to best serve our patients and enable our clinicians to keep up with increasing demand.''

Officially unveiled today at the ESC Congress 2014, Affiniti will be showcased at the Philips booth (F500) from Saturday, August 30th through Wednesday, September 3rd. Key features include:

  • Crisp, clear images that enable fast, confident diagnosis and reduce the need for additional exams
  • Philips’ PureWave transducer technology, delivering excellent image quality with little or no need for image adjustment for technically difficult patients;
  • Anatomical Intelligent Ultrasound, providing automatic anatomy recognition and quantification, making it easy to perform exams and quickly deliver new levels of clinical information;
  • Automation tools such as AutoSCAN, Auto Doppler and SmartExam to reduce the number of steps required to complete each exam, resulting in enhanced workflow;
  • DICOM and PC format capabilities to allow seamless information-sharing

To learn more about Affiniti and the full suite of Philips innovative ultrasound solutions, please visit: For more information on Philips’ participation at the ESC Congress 2014, including the speaker program, symposium and workshops, visit: and follow the #ESCcongress conversation @PhilipsHealth.

*Affiniti received its CE Mark on September 9, 2014. Affiniti is available for sale in Europe and Asia, with the U.S. launch slated for 2015.

Cal Wednesday: Notes

| 1 Comment

The USC defense is preparing for the nation's No. 8 passing offense.
  • Ed Orgeron announced that OLB Morgan Breslin (pictured) needs hip surgery which knocks him out for the remainder of the regular season.  However, there is a possibility that he could return for a bowl game down the road.
  • Breslin-Utah-Prac-McG.jpgAs a senior, the injury could mean the end of Breslin's short but impactful Trojan career. "In my 27 years of coaching, [Breslin] is one of my favorite players I've ever coached," said Orgeron. "He is a fantastic young man totally dedicated to football.  I just loved his attitude.  Total team player."
  • With Breslin out, J.R. Tavai will continue to start and Jabari Ruffin will also get major snaps.  Orgeron is also excited about the prospects of redshirt freshman Scott Starr, "I really think Scott is going to be a tremendous football player for us.  He has really come along in the last couple of weeks."
  • Here is the rest of the injury report: CB Anthony Brown (OUT), RB Tre Madden (OUT), TE Randall Telfer (OUT), LB Marquis Simmons (OUT), DL Leonard Williams (questionable with a shoulder injury), and OL Kevin Graf (probable).
  • With Graf likely returning, the coaching staff has a decision to make about the offensive line.  Orgeron "liked the continuity that we had last week," but he still has not reached a decision on who will start.
  • While Cal is winless in the Pac-12, the Bears can move the ball through the air averaging 349 passing yards per game. "They are still a powerful offense," said LB Hayes Pullard.  "We have to limit explosive plays and effect the quarterback."
  • Pullard has caught DL Leonard Williams for the team lead in tackles. "I didn't even know," he said.  "We're just out there having fun.  Nobody is really worried about tackles.  I know they're worried about the sacks.  That competition is different.  We're just trying to rise to the occasion."
  • Again tonight, Cal's fight song and cheers were pumped loudly onto the practice field.  Pullard said the noise helps with preparation. "On Saturdays, that's when you want to take the test, and you know all the answers to the test, so you just want to have fun."
  • Orgeron is not looking past Cal nor does he expect his team to underestimate the Bears. "We're in the mode, one game at a time, one day at a time.  Hopefully we can stay focused on that, but the natural deal is how are we going to react.  We're going to see."
  • The Trojans were guilty of coming out slowly against Cal in 2003 when they lost in a triple overtime classic. "I will always remember that day," said Orgeron.  "We walked into a snake pit.  We didn't play very well.  We tried to catch up, and we couldn't.  That was a devastating loss to our football team."
  • Here is Orgeron's presser for the day...

1 Comment

Coach O -

Can we get a shutout at Cal? Finishing them off at zero would help the team in a number of ways, including getting noticed in the polls - which pays dividends in recruiting.

Charles Burks may be as good of a pass rusher as Kennard is, could he get a chance? Burks was a beast in the spring game, and I have read numerous practice reports in the past mentioning him getting sacks and a lot of pressure on the qb's. Clay Matthews, Jordan Cameron and Allen Bradford were players who didn't get used much in games until late in their career's, but when they did they were stars. Burks seems like he is the next in line.

Demetrius Wright is the answer at corner opposite of Shaw. I know it is too late to make that adjustment this week. Them at corners with Bailey and Cravens at safety, still having McQuay Bowman there, too. Wright showed in the spring that he is a ball hawk, he has good feet and is the best option at corner in the same way Josh Pinkard was in the past - even if their best position is safety.

Fight On

Jon and Kate Gosselin Celebrate July 4th Holiday Together

Jon and Kate Gosselin came together for the sake of their children Saturday to celebrate the July 4th holiday at their sprawling Wernersville, Penn., home.

In the afternoon, Jon helped Kate picked blueberries from their backyard to make her annual festive dessert, a cake with an American flag insignia, before setting off sparklers with their kids (twins Mady and Cara, 8, and sextuplets Hannah, Leah, Alexis, Collin, Aaden and Joel, 5) at night.

Jon also spent the day riding an ATV and playing with the family's two German shepherds. The day's festivities were not filmed for the Gosselins' Jon and Kate Plus 8 reality series, as it was announced last month the TLC network has halted production until August to give the family "some time off to regroup."

Look back at other rocky reality TV romances

It is the family's first holiday since Kate filed for divorce June 22 after 10 years of marriage. Calling their marriage "irretrievably broken," she says she is willing to "negotiate a fair and reasonable" settlement with Jon. "I'm excited and hurt at the same time," Jon, whose relationship with 23-year-old teacher Deanna Hummel, will not be shown on future episodes, told TLC viewers on the June 22 episode. "I have a new chapter in my life -- I'm only 32 years old."

"While I know it will be hard for them," said Kate of the effect of the separation on their children, "it will be the best and most peaceful for them."
