Larry honorably served his country during the WWII era from 1943 until 1946 in the United States Army. He was formerly employed as a rural mail carrier for 37 years, retiring in 1986. He enjoyed cutting wood, fishing, the outdoors, yard work, playing cards and spending time with his grandchildren.

3Doodler FLEXY 3mm Filament 25 Pack – ‘FLEXY Blue’

Code: N20EM

  • Blue FLEXY 3Doodler FLEXY filament
  • 3mm diameter filament for the 3Doodler
  • FLEXY is a flexible, bendable plastic for adaptable designs

Product details

3Doodler FLEXY 3mm Filament 25 Pack – ‘FLEXY Blue’

• Blue FLEXY 3Doodler FLEXY filament
• 3mm diameter filament for the 3Doodler
• FLEXY is a flexible, bendable plastic for adaptable designs
• Comes as a 25-piece pack of filament
• Compatible with the 3Doodler 2.0, V1 and Create 3D Printing Pens

What can I make with this filament?
Whether you want to doodle the wide ocean or a vast sky, this is the shade for you. Create three-dimensional shapes or use it to fill in scenes and stencils – whatever you can imagine. The FLEXY Blue (FLX08-BLU) is 3mm FLEXY – a flexible plastic that lets you design bendable, stretchy doodles. Get creative with the 3Doodler and this filament.

What’s in this pack?
The pack comes as a 25-strand pack, with each strand 254mm (10 inch) long. For every inch of strand, the 3Doodler can produce up to 10 inches of doodle. The 3Doodler 2.0, V1 and Create are compatible with FLEXY filament.

FLEXY filament is much more flexible than ABS or PLA and lets you create rubbery, bendable doodles. Using FLEXY you can make a design that you can squeeze, stretch, twist and bend without damaging or distorting it. This flexibility makes FLEXY ideal for doodling on fabric, wearable designs and patterns that need to be bent into new and interesting shaped.

If you are looking to attach your doodle to a surface, PLA has better adhesion to a range of surfaces including paper, glass, metal and acrylic. It’s also great for adding additional effects to your doodle such as translucent or metallic sections.

For those who use or store their doodle in warmer areas, ABS has a reduced chance of warping at higher temperatures. ABS also gives a good blend of flexibility and strength to a doodle.

Storing your filament when not in use
Get the most out of your filament by storing it in a dry and dust-free environment. To get the best quality doodle every time, store your filament in a sealed container or bag with an added sachet of silica gel – as moisture can create problems with printing and reduce the lifespan of the filament. It’s easy to reuse the filament strands – just trim off the part-melted end for a better feed and get start creating all over again.
Plastic material type FLEXY
Colour FLEXY Blue
Diameter 3 mm

U.S. Senate Vote Could Finally Allow Cannabusinesses Banking Access

U.S. Senate Vote Could Finally Allow Cannabusinesses Banking Access

It’s been a couple years now since Colorado and Washington first legalized recreational use and sale of marijuana. In that time we’ve seen lots of changes, but one of the most important things that needs to change, but simply hasn’t, is the lack of banking access for cannabis companies.

One of the most dangerous things about the current legal status of marijuana is the continued cash-only nature of the business. Dispensaries operating in big cities like Denver or Portland face a much higher risk of robbery than the smaller towns, but for each and every one of them it should be considered a very real possibility.

There are so many possible bad scenarios with moving this much money in cash bills – after all, in each state marijuana sales are pretty much a multi-million dollar industry and none of it is paid for with credit or debit cards of any kind.

The main reason that banks are staying away from marijuana businesses is in fear of retaliation by the federal government. By taking on cannabis businesses under current federal law they face the possibility of asset seizure and the loss of their FDIC insurance – and this goes for all monetary establishments, credit unions included.

While it’s been a long time waiting we are finally seeing what could be significant progress on the subject of marijuana businesses and banking. An amendment was introduced this past Wednesday by Democratic Senator Jeff Merkley alongside six bipartisan cosponsors.

The amendment would prevent federal officials from punishing banks that choose to work with marijuana businesses, so long as those businesses are operating legally under all state laws, including licensing. It would prevent the government from prosecuting the banks, seizing assets and termination of FDIC insurance with all cannabis businesses.

This is not the only piece of legislature floating around on the subject at the moment – there is actually a standalone bill in both the House and Senate respectively. Each of the bills focus on easing restrictions set on banking with marijuana businesses, but this new amendment seems like it would do well at ensuring everyone had a clear understanding.

Others who have signed their names in support of this amendment include Harry Reid, Sens. Elizabeth Warren, Michael Bennet, Patty Murray, and Senator Rand Paul. This is a much needed amendment – however it needs to be given a chance to work.

Hopefully the Senate will be voting on this newly proposed Amendment soon. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – keeping marijuana a cash only business keeps the shady underground market look. If we want this to be a respected industry, it deserves all the same rights as other industries in the nation, including access to banking and other financial support.

World Trade in Perishable Cargo to Grow

October 16, 2008

The Drewry Shipping Consultants, latest Annual Report indicates that world trade in perishable Reefer cargo is forecast to grow to 215 million tons by 2015 of which 109 million will be seaborne. The bulk of seaborne trade will be carried by container Reefer vessels. That is partially because there is limited, and reducing, specialized reefer fleet capacity.

The report indicates that rationalization has continued over the last year amongst Reefer fleets with some notable companies leaving the specialized sector. Clearly there is a capacity problem for specialized vessels whereas Reefer containers have a real business opportunity if the former cannot bridge the capacity gap.

Fleet profile

By mid-2008, the container Reefer fleet boasted more than 4,500 vessels providing 11.4 million teu. Container Reefer capacity is predicted to grow by 69% to 2.5 billion cubic feet by 2013. The fleet of specialized Reefer vessels (greater than 100,000 cubic feet) on the other hand stood at 789 vessels as at mid-2008 - providing 271 million cubic feet of under-deck space. This represents a reduction of 12% (in number of vessels) and 9% (in under-deck Reefer capacity) from its peak in 1999. On current trends, this reduction will continue and it is estimated that the specialized Reefer fleet will drop to just 642 vessels by January 2015.

Commodity demand going bananas

Drewry’s Report also provides a comprehensive breakdown of the world trade of perishable Reefer cargo by commodities. Total cargoes reached 153 million tons in 2007 - having increased from 114 million tons in 2000: a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.2%. The fastest growing commodity was the exotics group - pineapples, kiwifruit and avocados.

Imports of perishable Reefer commodities into have fallen in relation to the world-wide total – from 45% in 2000 to 42% in 2007. Likewise, imports into have also fallen from 15% of the worldwide total in 2000 to 12% in 2007.

The single most-important commodity - from the perspective of the specialized Reefer owners and operators - is bananas. Bananas can be shipped year-round and this enables Reefer operators to employ vessels on an annual - or even multi-year - basis. In 2007, bananas equated to 22% of total seaborne perishable reefer cargo.

Key economic factors

Oil prices have seen record highs during 2008 while food and commodity prices are soaring. The financial sector is in turmoil as this is being written; exactly what effect this will have on shipping is still unclear. Equally, whether ’s boom lasts or will be stalled by falling demand in the West continues to be debated.

Personnel shortage

Reefer fleets are not immune from general operating cost factors that are becoming more acute namely the perceived officer shortage and escalating wages, the big increase in the quantum of insurance claims and soaring raw materials costs on the repair market.

Looking for Louis

Exploring the lives of Alois Betz and his descendants in the United States

What makes history fascinating to some people is difficult to explain. Certainly my children couldn’t tell you what makes it fascinating to me. But I think it is essentially the digging out of secrets, and the recovering of things long lost. Large events are often well recorded from many different perspectives, but the lives of individual, ordinary folk quickly fade from view once the last living memory passes. Reconstructing what happened in such a life over a century ago is, for some at least, an engaging and satisfying process.

It is all the more engaging when the narrative we’re trying to build is one that explains the lives of our own ancestors. The people who preceded us, the families that begat families that begat families down the generations, fascinate us for deeply human reasons. They continue to do so even in a modern age when status, wealth, property, and privilege are at least somewhat less likely to be the bequest of an antecedant than the result of contemporary hard work and good luck.

Several years ago my father and I began to discuss what we knew of our own family history. I had heard off and on throughout my life of a young man named “Aloysius” who had emigrated here from Germany in the 19th century and founded our branch of the family in the United States, but beyond the name I had known almost nothing else. During those initial discussions my Dad dug up some pictures and notes that had been sent to him by my great aunt, his father’s sister, back in the 1970’s. The image above was among them. Suddenly we had a face to accompany our family legend.

Beginning with my great aunt’s notes we started piecing the puzzle together. As we researched we benefited from the increasing digitization of immigration and census records, newspapers and periodicals, birth and death notices, and court records. Details began to emerge. “Aloysius” became “Alois,” a form of “Louis.” The “mid-19th century” became 1855. We had a place where he was born, and places that he had lived after he came here. We had census records of his household in 1860, and again in 1880. We had his obituary, and the court records of the probate process that followed his death.

Late in 2014 we came into possession of a treasure trove of documents and photographs courtesy of Sister Clare Boehmer, daughter of Joseph and Marie Boehmer (nee Betz, daughter of Edward R. Betz, son of Alois Betz). Among these were a large number of official documents in German, some printed and some hand-written. The oldest dates to around 1846 and predates Alois emigration to the U.S. by nine years. Probably the most fascinating is his wanderbuch, which documents his time as a journeyman in southern Bavaria. Among the photos, some dating back as far as the 1870’s, are images of Alois, his second wife Rosina, and all of the first generation born to them in the U.S. You can find high resolution scans of all the documents and photos here on the site.

My great-great-grandfather Alois Betz had at least ten children with two different wives. Of these at least eight survived into their child-rearing years. It is likely that a large number of his descendants are living in the U.S. today. Hopefully some of them will find these pages, in which we have gathered together everything we’ve been able to discover, interesting and useful. A good place to start, whether you are wondering whether you might be a descendant, or are just curious, would be with the overview of Alois’ life.

Beyond that introduction there are specific pages dedicated to his life in Enkering, the town in Bavaria from whence he came, Johnstown, Pennsylvania where he went first on arrival, and Cleveland, Ohio where he ended up making another start after finding mostly grief in the little town on the Connemaugh river. There is also a page on the lives of the various descendants after Alois’ death in 1891. Some of these pages are pretty spare, and some are completely empty. We’ll try to fill in what we can as we go along, and if it happens that you know something we don’t, or can correct something we think we know, please feel free to leave a comment on the relevant article.

About Names

Tracing names in the historical record can be a tricky thing. Europeans arrived in the U.S. with the name that had been given them by their parents, and that name was often anglicized voluntarily or otherwise, soon after arrival. To further complicate matters the name that an emigrant used might vary based on who he or she was addressing or being addressed by. Thus “Alois”, whose name was a later German form of the Old Occitan name “Aloys,” and of the latinized name “Aloysius,” might be addressed as “Louis” by native born Americans, and as “Alois” within his own community of German speakers. In fact both forms appear on official documents as well. Similarly Alois’ first wife Josephine might be known as Josepha or Josephina, and his second wife Rose as Rosa or Rosina.

Similar problems sometimes pop up with surnames as well as given names. One family name in particular has given us some trouble when it comes to presenting information in a consistent way, and that is the name Sarlouis. The history of the Betz and Sarlouis families becomes mingled in 1888 when Frank M. Sar Louis married Lena R. Betz, a niece of Alois Betz. Frank’s surname is consistently spelled “Sar Louis” in my great aunt Marie’s notes, and in official documents. However Frank was beyond doubt the son of Peter Sarlouis of Johnstown, Pennsylvania, a Prussian immigrant and Civil War veteran, and “Sarlouis” is how the name is spelled on Peter’s gravestone.

To further complicate matters, by the time we get to the generation of Frank and Lena’s son Alphonse, he is spelling the name “Sar-Louis”, and that is how it is spelled on his gravestone in Florida. A little searching will show that Sarlouis is an old name originating in the Saarland, and associated with the town of Saarlouis in that region. My feeling is therefore that “Sarlouis” is the definitive spelling, so I have used that parenthetically to link the names of the various family members together. Otherwise I have represented the name as it is written in the record being cited, or as we know it was spelled by the individual under discussion.

Technical Notes

The site contains links to high-quality scanned documents. Each document is presented as a thumbnail with a brief description. The thumbnail links to a separate page where the 300 DPI version of the document can be viewed directly, and 600 and 1200 DPI versions can be downloaded from Google drive. Comments can also be added to the document pages, so if you believe you can help with a translation or clarification please don’t hesitate to do so.

The original German documents are all around 165 or more years old, and in very fragile condition. They are stored in individual archival enclosures, and were carefully scanned using an Epson Perfection V550 photo scanner. Documents were scanned at 1200 DPI and downscaled to the various sizes made available here. Many of the German documents are large format. The military document (document #5), for example, is approximately 16.5″ by 13.5″. These formats are too large to be scanned in one go by the Epson, so as many as four individual scans were taken and combined using Microsoft ICE to create a seamless stitched image.

The high resolution versions are made available for scholarly purposes and to aid in translation. It should be noted that the 1200 DPI scans are extremely large. Many are over 15,000 pixels wide and over a half-gigabyte in size. If you don’t need the higher resolutions the half- and quarter-resolution images (600 and 300 DPI, respectively) are also available, but these are still very large files. All scanned images are presented in lossless compressed PNG format. In addition there is a link to a .ZIP file containing an uncompressed full-resolution .TIF of each document.

Photographs date back as far as the 1870’s, so some are in better condition than others. All images were scanned at 300 DPI, and are presented in lossless compressed .PNG format. In addition there is a link to a .ZIP file containing an uncompressed full-resolution .TIF of each photograph.

In some cases documents have interesting material on the flip side. These are treated as separate documents, although clearly linked in presentation and by obvious file name patterns. The same is true for photographs, which often have written notes on the back. When these are legible they will be presented as separate scans linked to the original photo using the same name formatting.

2007 Mitsubishi Ralliart and Spyder

Published: Nov 18, 2006 10:51 a.m. ET

DARNESTOWN, Md. (MarketWatch) -- Take a Mitsubishi Galant, infuse it with 28 more horsepower, a firmer suspension, leather seats, and a powerful auto system and you've created the Ralliart.

Cut the roof off an Eclipse and you have the Spyder -- a very attractive two-seater that turns heads.

In the case of the Ralliart, Mitsubishi popped in a 3.8-liter, SOHC V6 that cranks out 258 horsepower and matched it to a five-speed automatic transmission with manual shift mode. (A fully manual stick shift isn't offered.) Get-up-and-go with this combo is brisk: The company puts zero to 60 mph at 6.5 seconds, and we wouldn't argue with that. The car gets 18 to 27 miles per gallon, according to the EPA.

Handling with the sport suspension isn't bad, but it's below that of, say, a Volks GTI. More feedback into the steering wheel would be a good addition.

Inside, there was ample head and leg room for driver and passenger alike. The 360-watt Rockford Acoustic Design sound system wasn't bad, but we've heard better. The seats were long-term comfortable, but they didn't keep do a good job of keeping the driver in place during more spirited cornering.

Our Ralliart bottom-lined at $29,474 -- not hard to take in today's marketplace.

As for Mitsu's Spyder, ours test vehicle was a well-optioned drop top, outfitted with the $1,980 GT premium sport package that includes leather seats, 18-inch alloy wheels, and heated front seats -- perfect for those days when you just have to put the top down regardless of the season.

A few other options brought the sticker price up to $32,873.

We thought the car was fun to drive -- within certain limits. The tires on our Spyder tended to squeal too easily when pressed in tight turns, but the suspension hung in there rather well. When stacked up against some of its competition, the Spyder trades off a bit less handling for a better ride over rough roads.

Interior space was good, but build quality was below that of its rivals in some areas. Shutting the doors, for instance, was something that didn't produce the solid ka-thunk we'd expect in a modern car.

The six-speed manual on our test Spyder was a delight, hooked to the same 3.8-liter six as the Ralliart. But with the Spyder, it produces 260 horsepower -- more than enough to keep the demanding driver happy.

Both Mitsubishis, we found, were what the British might call "soft" cars -- lacking in any clear personality and in terms of design, stopping shy of being all-out performance cars or sports cars. That's not all bad, and the nature of these two Mitsus might well appeal to many drivers.

All the same, it's a tough marketplace out there. On balance, we think it will be hard for the Ralliart and the Spyder to take sales away from the likes of Nissan's Z car, the GTI, the Honda Si or Mitsubishi's own Evo.

NRG Energy swings to loss on write-downs

Published: Feb 28, 2014 10:10 a.m. ET

NRG Energy Inc. NRG, -1.26% swung to a fourth-quarter loss as the merchant power generator posted substantial write-downs.

NRG, one of the biggest electricity producers in the U.S., last year agreed to acquire an Edison International EIX, +0.38% unit's coal plants, wind farms and other assets out of bankruptcy in a $2.6 billion deal. Edison Mission sells electricity in unregulated markets and has struggled to make money through a prolonged period of low prices, weak power demand and rising costs at the unit's aging coal-fired power plants in Illinois. The deal is expected to close in the first quarter.

For NRG, the pending acquisition is the latest in a string of purchases that have bulked up its fleet of conventional power plants and its retail power-sales business. NRG in 2012 became the biggest wholesale electricity company in the U.S. after it bought rival GenOn Energy in a deal valued at about $1.7 billion.

NRG reported a loss of $290 million, or 90 cents a share, compared with a year-earlier profit of $252 million, $1.02 a share. For the latest period, the company posted write-downs totaling $558 million primarily from its Indian River facility and Gladstone investment, while the year-earlier period included bargain purchase gains of $296 million related to the GenOn acquisition.

NRG Energy also boosted its dividend 17% to an annual payout of 56 cents a share, and backed its adjusted earnings guidance for 2014.

Adam Levine Is "So in Love" with Daughter Dusty Rose

Plus, his opinions on Gwen & Blake.

On September 22nd, Adam Levine and Behati Prinsloo welcomed daughter Dusty Rose Levine into the world. Almost five months later, Levine still has that new-dad-glow about him, and it's adorable. The Voice star joined friend Ellen DeGeneres on her show yesterday to talk about his baby girl.

Last week, Levine received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and because of it, Dusty made her first public debut. "Who would think that you and a supermodel would make a gorgeous baby like that?" Ellen joked. "She's unbelievable," Levine said. "I'm so in love with her. It's great." Ellen continued on to say how lucky Dusty is to have a dad that loves her as much as he does. Cue awws everywhere.

Celebrity Couples Who Welcomed Babies in 2016

In his Walk of Fame speech, Levine gushed about Dusty and wife Behati. "I have a daughter, I have the most beautiful wife in the entire world. I am one of the luckiest people who's ever lived and it has nothing to do with me," he said. "It has to do with the people who love me the most so, I thank all of those people. I can't do it individually, but I thank you all."

Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton also attended the ceremony and Shelton even gave a nice speech about his good friend. But if we know anything about these two Voice coaches, it's that they have a fun and intense rivalry—and that goes beyond the show. Ellen was sure to bring this subject up, since the two guys both sent her a Valentine's Day gift. The Maroon 5 lead made it a point to prove he loves Ellen more, saying how he and the beloved daytime host are actually really good friends (much better than she and Blake!). "I named your baby, for instance," Ellen said. "Yeah, pretty much," Levine answered. "I mean, she really kind of did."

Adam also discussed his co-stars' relationship and the dynamic it has on the show. "Blake and Gwen's whole thing is weird because coaches are dating and it's weird," he joked. Well, we don't think so!

Step Stools

I have a kitchen with customized cabinets that hanged overhead. And I am a homemaker not blessed with towering height of a ramp model, thus I need something like this in my kitchen – a step stool.

I’ve seen designs of metal step stools in the internet and I think a step stool with three or four step suits me best.

How I wish I can have this piece of home ware the soonest. I need a step stool especially when I need to change a light bulb, to dust the top of a cabinet, or whenever I need to get a bit of extra height to reach something.
