Language: Linguistics · Semiotics · Speech
In phonetics, palato-alveolar (or palatoalveolar) consonants are postalveolar consonants, nearly always sibilants, that are weakly palatalized with a domed (bunched-up) tongue. They are common sounds cross-linguistically and occur in English words such as ship and chip.
The fricatives are transcribed ⟨ʃ⟩ (voiceless) and ⟨ʒ⟩ (voiced) in the International Phonetic Alphabet, while the corresponding affricates are ⟨tʃ⟩ (voiceless) and ⟨dʒ⟩ (voiced). (For the affricates, tied symbols ⟨t͡ʃ⟩ ⟨d͡ʒ⟩ or unitary Unicode symbols ⟨ʧ⟩ ⟨ʤ⟩ are sometimes used instead, especially in languages that make a distinction between an affricate and a sequence of plosive + fricative.) Examples of words with these sounds in English are shin [ʃ], chin [tʃ], gin [dʒ] and vision [ʒ] (in the middle of the word).
Palato-alveolar consonants can articulated either with the tip or blade of the tongue, and are correspondingly called apical or laminal,. Speakers of English use both variants, and it does not appear to significantly affect the sound of the consonants.[1]
Similarity to other sounds[edit | edit source]
- Main article: Postalveolar consonant
These sounds are similar to the alveolo-palatal sibilants [ɕ] [ʑ] and to the retroflex sibilants [ʂ] [ʐ], all of which are postalveolar consonants. In palato-alveolars the front of the body of the tongue is domed, in that the front of the tongue moves partway towards the palate, giving the consonant a weakly palatalized sound. They differ from other postalveolars in the extent of palatalization, intermediate between the fully palatalized alveolo-palatas and the unpalatalized retroflexes.
It is generally only within sibilants that a palato-alveolar articulation is distinguished. In certain languages nasals or laterals may be said to be palato-alveolar,[citation needed] but it is unclear if such sounds can be consistently distinguished from alveolo-palatals and palatalized alveolars. Even in the case of sibilants, palato-alveolars are often described simply as "post-alveolars" or even as "palatals", since they do not contrast with these sounds in most languages.
Palato-alveolar consonants in the IPA[edit | edit source]
The two palato-alveolar fricatives identified by the International Phonetic Alphabet, and their common affricate homologues, are:
|Voiceless palato-alveolar fricative
|[Template:IPA bold dark redɪn]
|Voiced palato-alveolar fricative
|[vɪTemplate:IPA bold dark redən]
|File:IPA voiceless postalveolar affricate.png

In what has turned out to be a day of coincidences, I have had a lovely surprise. A fat envelope containing the proofs of my forthcoming LAMAS article landed on our office doormat. I promise that this was not all planned in advance in some sort of dodgy attempt to make my Day of Archaeology sound more interesting!
My name is Guy Hunt. I am a partner at L – P : Archaeology, a British commercial archaeology practice. I have been with L – P since 1999 which is now starting to seem like quite a long time ago. My day to day work usually involves a mix of project management, website and digital archaeology and quite a bit of time spent at a desk. I have also just become a dad, so after a couple of weeks of paternity leave I have come back to a lot of work that I need to catch up on. (If you are expecting an email from me… and are reading this post thinking "why the blooming hell is Guy writing this and not replying to me!" don't despair, I promise to be up to date by the end of Monday.)
This afternoon it was time to turn to something a little more archaeological, taking a look at those proofs. This is the (almost) final point in the life of a project that started out 12 years ago when I first joined L – P. The site is now the Grange City Hotel, but will always be known to us as "Cooper's Row" (AKA: Coopers, Cooperz, Das Coop or Coopers la Rue). The site is located at the eponymous Cooper's Row, at the eastern fringe of the City of London.
Despite an impressively roomy sounding 18,000 words this article is actually an incredibly 'boiled down' account of the archaeology of the site. The publication is the culmination of the work of hundreds of people, most of whom are sadly not mentioned by name in the article. The site includes a write up and synthesis of 4 sites (ASQ87, CPW99, CPQ03 and CRZ06). On top of the archaeological evidence from those sites, the paper also wraps up the current state of knowledge about the city wall in this area and prints two brand new elevation drawings of the wall.
ASQ87 was excavated over 20 years ago by the then Department of Urban Archaeology of the Museum of London (DUA) and the fact that I could go back and revive the records from this site is a testament to the quality of the original recording and record keeping. CPW99 was excavated in 1999 and 2000 by AOC archaeology, supervised by Diccon Hart who also supervised the CPQ03 site, this time directly for L – P. Diccon wrote up the stratigraphic sequences for both of these sites, doing all of the stratigraphic analysis (heavy duty number crunching!) as well as writing up the group narrative.
On top of the stratigraphic analysis, there was a huge range of material from all of the different specialists. To name just a few of the specialists, who hail mostly from the Museum of London: pottery (Lyn Blackmore & Amy Thorpe), registered finds (Geoff Egan and Angela Wardle) animal bones (Kevin Reilly). My job was to bring all of this material together and to try to hang it onto the framework provided by Chris Phillpott's report on the documentary sources available for Cooper's Row. As well as the text, our own GIS people Andy Dufton and Jess Ogden mangled our plans into gorgeous looking drawings. Finally Pete Rowsome did a very very well needed edit to the text adding detail and giving a well deserved 'haircut' to the shaggy parts.
So there you go, I wrote nearly 700 words and I didn't even get a chance to thank any of the wonderful diggers and back office staff who made all this possible. Let me be absolutely clear: without you, none of this would be possible!
It's great to see these proofs looking so lovely… and I am relieved to say, needing very little editing… now where is my pudding?

A Snapshot of New Revenue Standard Implementation Topics
A number of potential issues could arise when implementing the new Accounting Standards Update, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Following is an excerpt from Deloitte & Touche LLP's TRG Snapshot summarizing the July 18, 2014, meeting of the IASB and FASB's joint revenue transition resource group (TRG), where potential issues related to implementation of the new revenue standard were discussed. The group covered several areas, including discussion of the principal-agent assessment; taxes and shipping and handling costs related to the definition of transaction price; royalty constraints in light of contracts that contain multiple performance obligations; and potential economic benefits of renewal periods when assessing the impairment of capitalized contract costs.
See the FASB's web site for more information about the TRG, including meeting materials further describing the topics discussed below.
Topic 1: Determining whether an entity offering Internet-related intangible goods and service arrangements is a principal or an agent
TRG members acknowledged that there are similar issues under current GAAP and that the indicators in the new revenue standard are similar to those in current GAAP. However, members noted that the control principle in the new revenue standard complicates principal-agent assessments. They remarked that since transactions involving virtual goods and services are often executed in milliseconds, and control of the intangible asset (often a right) is instantaneous, determining control and the customer may not be obvious.
To illustrate some of the difficulties, two TRG members offered examples. One described a situation in which a wholesale club sells a restaurant gift card for a future meal at a specified price to a customer of the wholesale club. The other described the use of advertising exchanges for Internet advertising. The TRG's and boards' discussion centered primarily on identifying (1) the customer, (2) the order of the steps for determining control and applying the agency indicators and (3) the relative weight of the agency indicators (e.g., inventory risk, payment risk and determining the primary obligor).
Certain board members noted that perhaps too much emphasis was being placed on identifying the customer instead of on the nature of the contract and the promises made. Participants also noted that the accounting could vary depending on the order in which entities performed the steps of the assessment. However, some indicated that different conclusions would not be troubling because they would be made on the basis of promises, which vary. In addition, while some acknowledged that ascribing relative weights to the indicators may promote consistency, others noted that entities should use judgment and base the amount of weight they give to indicators on the facts and circumstances of their transactions.
TRG and board members generally agreed that it may be impractical for entities that are originators to try to estimate a gross amount (i.e., the amount for which an intermediary is selling a virtual good or service) when the originator does not have such information.
Topic 2: Determining whether certain amounts billed to customers should be presented as revenue or a reduction of costs
Discussion centered primarily on taxes and shipping and handling costs. One TRG member noted that the new revenue standard's definition of transaction price is clear and that an entity would therefore record amounts gross unless the entity (1) arranges shipping on behalf of the customer in accordance with the customer's specifications or (2) the tax is levied on the customer. In each case, the entity is only responsible for collecting and remitting fees to third parties. TRG members acknowledged that an entity would most likely need to assess whether it is acting as a principal or an agent to determine how to present amounts billed and collected on behalf of third parties.
In discussing other costs, TRG members observed that when an entity acts as a "pass-through," amounts would be recognized on a net basis as if the entity were an agent if, for example, (1) the customer chooses and contracts directly with the shipper but the entity collects the shipping fee or (2) goods or services are insured by third parties and the entity is collecting the insurance fee. However, TRG members also discussed situations in which shipping is offered as an incentive (e.g., free or discounted shipping terms), which has become more prevalent in e-commerce transactions, or in which entities are responsible for shipping (i.e., shipping is included in the entity's pricing of a good or service). In such instances, determining whether to recognize amounts as revenue on a gross or net basis is less clear.
Regarding taxes, TRG members noted that the new revenue standard would require entities to evaluate every type of tax (e.g., sales, income, excise) in every tax jurisdiction (i.e., in every local, state and federal jurisdiction in each country in which the entity has contracts with customers). Many questioned whether such an exercise is practical or whether it was intended by the boards.
Certain board members believed that no additional guidance was needed. One remarked that entities should determine whether under the new revenue model the entity has a separate performance obligation (to which consideration would need to be allocated) and assess the nature of the promise (i.e., to perform or arrange as a principal or an agent, respectively).
Topic 3: Sales-based and usage-based royalties in contracts with licenses and goods or services other than licenses
TRG members discussed whether the royalty constraint could be applied to a contract that contained multiple performance obligations, at least one of which was to provide a distinct license of IP. One TRG member provided an example in which a media entertainment company enters into a contract with a movie theater to provide (1) a license to show a feature-length film for a limited time and (2) a minimum amount of local advertising for the film in exchange for a royalty equal to 50% of the theater's ticket sales from the film. The TRG member referred to Example 60, "Access to Intellectual Property," in the new revenue standard and indicated that it was unclear whether the royalty constraint in the example would apply to (1) only the performance obligation to provide the license to show the film, (2) both the license and advertising or (3) neither.
As noted in the meeting materials, TRG members generally expressed one of the three following views:
—View A: "A sales- or usage-based royalty is promised in exchange for a license of intellectual property whenever that royalty relates to a license, regardless of (i) whether the royalty also relates to another non-license good or service or (ii) whether the license is a separate performance obligation (that is, not combined for accounting purposes with a non-license good or service)."
—View B: "A sales- or usage-based royalty is promised in exchange for a license of intellectual property only when that royalty relates solely to a license and that license is a separate performance obligation (that is, it is not combined for accounting purposes with a non-license good or service)."
—View C: "A sales- or usage-based royalty is promised in exchange for a license of intellectual property when the royalty relates (i) solely to a license of intellectual property, or (ii) the royalty relates to a license and one or more other non-license goods or services, but the license is the primary or dominant component to which the royalty relates."
The TRG also discussed whether the royalty constraint could be applied to a contract in which an entity promised to deliver a tangible product that incorporated a license of IP that was not distinct (e.g., a copier that includes proprietary software) in exchange for a usage-based fee. A board member expressed his belief that a sales- or usage-based fee arrangement would only be considered a royalty (i.e., potentially considered for the exception) if it was contingent on (1) the sale of the IP to the intermediary's customer or (2) the usage of the IP by the intermediary's customer.
Members of the boards also discussed the definition of key terms such as "royalty," "license" and "intellectual property" and acknowledged that users may want further clarification about the boundaries within which the royalty constraint would apply—especially because it is meant to be applied on an exception basis.
Topic 4: Inclusion of renewal periods for impairment testing of capitalized contract costs
Many TRG members expressed the view that when testing a contract asset for impairment, an entity would consider the economic benefits from anticipated contract extensions or renewals if the asset related to the goods and services that would be transferred during those extension or renewal periods. No TRG members or board members presented an alternate view. Consequently, many board members believed that the topic required no additional clarification.
Next Steps
As intended, no conclusions were reached at the meeting. The boards and their staffs will consider the feedback from the meeting to determine whether to provide additional guidance or clarification and, if so, what it should be. Board members did not indicate the timing of any communications summarizing the meeting or describing actions they intend to take.
The TRG's next meeting is scheduled for October 31, 2014.

Senate Democrats proposed a $1 trillion infrastructure plan Wednesday, and they want to repeal parts of the Republican tax overhaul to pay for it. In what was likely a preview of a key Democratic theme for the upcoming congressional election in November, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said the proposal is designed to boost the middle class through domestic investment and job creation: "We believe overwhelmingly the American people will prefer building infrastructure and creating close to 15 million middle-class jobs than giving tax breaks for the wealthy," he told The Washington Post.
The spending proposal includes:
- $140 billion for roads and bridges
- $115 billion for water and sewer infrastructure
- $80 billion to upgrade the energy grid
- $50 billion for schools
- $40 billion for high-speed internet
To raise revenue to offset the cost of the plan, Democrats propose to reverse significant elements of the Republican tax bill signed by President Trump in December. They would:
- Raise the corporate tax rate to 25 percent, up from 21 percent
- Raise the top individual tax rate to 39.6 percent, up from 37 percent
- Reduce the estate tax exemption from $11.2 million per person to $5.6 million, where it stood before the Republican tax overhaul
- Tax carried interest at ordinary rates rather than the lower capital gains rate
- Expand the alternative minimum tax (AMT)
The proposal leaves other parts of the new tax rules that Democrats have criticized intact, including the 20 percent tax deduction for pass-through businesses and the $10,000 limit on the state and local tax deductions.
Republicans quickly dismissed the proposal, with Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-TN) saying, "Repeal all these bonuses, pay raises, new jobs, and new investments? Talk about a nonstarter."
Political spin aside, The Wall Street Journal's Richard Rubin largely agreed with McConnel's prognosis for success given the current balance of power in Washington, tweeting, "This Democratic tax plan is going nowhere in 2018."

It's far worse when no thanks are offered at all and the OP simply vanishes once they have got what they want.

Viciedo grateful thumb injury merely a jam
CHICAGO -- When Dayan Viciedo made a diving attempt at Robinson Cano's first-inning single on Monday, he knew immediately something was wrong with his left thumb.
"It was right at that moment," Viciedo said through a translator, White Sox director of public relations Lou Hernandez. "I just landed on it and I had some really bad thoughts going through my head, if you know what I mean. Luckily, nothing's broken. When I got back to the dugout, I couldn't close my glove, and that's when I realized there's something wrong here."
X-rays taken on Viciedo's jammed thumb on Monday were negative. He didn't start Tuesday's contest against the Yankees but thought a return for Wednesday night's series finale was possible.
"Yeah, absolutely," Viciedo said. "It improved a lot from last night to now. Little by little, it's getting better.
"There's a little bit of swelling. Thank God there was no fracture. It was just a freak jamming, so the inflammation is there. They're doing some treatment on it to reduce the swelling and hopefully get me out there on the field as soon as possible."

OAK BROOK, Ill. — In a new study published in the March issue of Radiology, researchers from Columbia University and the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute have determined that an imaging exam of the heart using the latest generation of CT technology exposes patients to as much as 91 percent less radiation than standard helical CT scanning.
"Coronary CT angiography has generated great enthusiasm in recent years, due to its diagnostic accuracy in assessing patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease," said Andrew J. Einstein, M.D., Ph.D., assistant professor of clinical medicine in radiology and director of cardiac CT research at Columbia University Medical Center. "However, that enthusiasm has been tempered by concern about the potentially high radiation dose received by patients."
In CT, numerous x-ray beams and a set of x-ray detectors rotate around the patient, measuring the amount of radiation being absorbed in the body. At the same time, the exam table moves through the scanner allowing the x-ray beam to follow a helical or spiral path.
Many coronary CT angiography exams are conducted on 64-detector row CT scanners, which can image four centimeters at a time. The latest generation of CT technology, a 320-detector row volume CT scanner, can image 16 centimeters — or the entire length of the heart — in a single rotation and within a single heartbeat.
In his study, Dr. Einstein and a team of researchers compared the radiation exposure incurred during a coronary CT angiography procedure using a 64-detector row helical scanning and volume scanning, using a 320-detector row volume CT scanner. Phantoms simulating the male and female body were imaged using six different scan modes.
Using standard 64-detector row helical scanning as the benchmark, the effective radiation dose was reduced by 91 percent from 35.4 millisieverts (mSv) to 4.4 mSv using optimized 320-detector row volume scanning.
"By imaging the entire heart in one piece, volume scanning eliminates artifacts due to seams or gaps between image sections," said Dr. Einstein. "Moreover, the x-ray tube is left on for only a brief duration, as little as .35 seconds."
According to Dr. Einstein, state-of-the-art CT technology emphasizes optimal image resolution with the ability to lower radiation dose through a variety of features and scan modes that adjust and modulate the dose based on the specific needs of the individual patient.
"As CT technology advanced from 16- to 64-slice capabilities, the radiation dose went up significantly," he said. "Today, technology development is going in the opposite direction, reducing radiation exposure."
Dr. Einstein emphasized that practitioners must pay careful attention to using the appropriate scan mode to obtain diagnostic information with the least amount of radiation exposure to the patient.

House GOP Represents More Low-Wage Workers Than Democrats
Low-income workers are more likely to be represented by a Republican in Congress than a Democrat, according to a new study that shows debates around the minimum wage and income inequality are not localized concerns.
Nearly one in five U.S. workers earns $11.50 an hour or less, according to data released this week by Oxfam America which supports efforts to raise the minimum wage. Of those 24 million people, about 55% live in districts represented by Republicans.
Oxfam, an anti-poverty nonprofit group, said an employee earning less than $11.50 an hour would likely receive a raise if the federal pay floor was lifted to $10.10 an hour from a $7.25 rate. More conservative economists have said minimum-wage increases could limit the ability of those making slightly more than the wage floor to receive raises.

If you're in the market for a new camera, have your eye on a fancy DSLR, and care about more than just the price, you'll want to take a few minutes and peruse this tutorial from the folks at LensProToGo. In the video they explain what terms like sensor size, crop factor and depth of field mean, and illustrate how each one can affect the photos or videos you're shooting.
If you have a DSLR and don't plan on ever upgrading your kit lens, there's probably not much to interest you here. But if you're thinking of expanding your photography kit, knowing the size of the sensor in your camera, and how it affects the zoom capabilities of a lens, will help you make a more educated investment in your gear.

Craftsman's Cribsheet: A Gage R&R Approach
An improperly defined gage repeatability and reproducibility (R&R) program can drain a company of resources and reduce the effectiveness of the shop. ISO/TS16949:2009 states that variation studies, "shall apply to measurement systems referenced in the control plan." The purpose of analyzing your measurement system is to understand the sources of variation that can influence the results produced by the system. Here is a suggested approach to applying logic to this requirement.
Measurement Techniques: Any one of three systems to check product status, product characteristics or process equipment. The types of measurement techniques used within the organization include measurement systems, inspection systems and test systems.
Featured Content
1. Measurement System
A precision measurement technique used to check product characteristics. Statistical studies are appropriate, because an operator could alter the reading of the equipment with an improper method. Examples of measurement systems include micrometers and hardness testing machines.
2. Inspection System
A non-precision measurement technique. Tolerances are large enough to minimize the consequences of operator error. Instrumentation classified as an inspection system does not lend itself to measurement system analysis studies. Examples of inspection systems include visual, ruler and tape measure.
3. Test System
A precision measurement technique used to generate a reading that prompts a pass or fail decision. Instrumentation classified as a test system does not lend itself to measurement system analysis studies. Test system techniques are used predominantly in checking the equipment that supports the process (pyrometer, PSI gage, UV light meter).
The standard's "each type" requirement does not mean that each and every micrometer must have evidence of an R&R associated with it. The analysis of each type of gage can be done by selecting a representation of both gages and operators. A 100 percent R&R inspection for each gage would provide no additional value. It is the system that is being measured, not the individual gages. Any competent auditor would understand that a massive R&R production process based on 100 percent inspection would add no more value and would be statistically irrelevant.
Examine your control plan and locate the space where you are to identify the measurement system utilized. The "Evaluation Measurement Technique" is the column within the control plan that references the statistical studies requirement. The statistical studies should be performed only on those devices classified as measurement systems as defined above.
By properly designating the types of systems you use in your shop, you can avoid the need for irrelevant and redundant gage studies that add no value. You will be justified in limiting your statistical studies to those measurement systems cited in your control plan.

ECO:nomics: A New 'Middle-East' At Home?
Shell Oil President Marvin Odum says tells WSJ's John Bussey that the predictions for the amounts of oil recently discovered domestically are still unproven.

Principle of Operation
HAZ-DUST IV operates on the principle of near-forward light scattering of infrared radiation. It immediately and continuously measures the concentration of airborne dust particles and displays the result in mg/m3.
What is near-forward light scattering? This measurement technique uses an infrared light source positioned at a 90-degree angle from a photodetector. As the airborne particles enter the infrared beam, they scatter the light. The amount of light received by the photodetector is directly proportional to the aerosol concentration. Unique signal processing internally compensates for noise and drift.

Adhesives Used with Dibond® Material
One of the display features in great demand is the ability to attach Dibond® material to a substrate without having exposed fasteners. The vast majority of this type connection is done using adhesives.
One of the display features in great demand is the ability to attach Dibond® material to a substrate without having exposed fasteners. Although there are some techniques to accomplish this using conventional fasteners, the vast majority of this type connection is done using adhesives. To develop some general guidelines, 3A Composites has reviewed some well-known adhesives and can present the following information.
The following General Guidelines have been established based on the research done into the use of adhesives on Dibond® material.
- To achieve reliable bonding, it is imperative to follow the adhesive manufacturer's application instructions.
- Although many adhesive materials work well on the coil coated paint finishes on Dibond® material, no product, either adhesive or tape, has been found that will adhere to the polyethylene core material. All attachments should be made through contact with the aluminum facers of Dibond® material.
- Care must be taken in the selection of an adhesive regarding the expansion of the materials to be joined. Where significant thermal expansion can occur (i.e. exterior applications) adhesives should be of medium or low modulus materials to allow for movement without shear or loss of bond. For interior applications where thermal expansion is not a consideration, high modulus adhesives can be used to join materials.
- Cure time is generally a consideration in the choice of adhesives. Silicones take a good deal of time to cure before a load can be applied whereas the faster curing adhesives do not have the movement capabilities to meet the project needs. In these instances, a combination of double sided foam tape and adhesive is often used.
Example: Two pieces of Dibond® material must be connected for a strong permanent bond in a short period of time. The adhesive area is 2" by 36".
Many times a strip of double sided foam tape (approx. ¾" wide) will be applied next to a bead of silicone adhesive. For the near term, the tape holds the Dibond®. For the longer term, the silicone adhesive will cure and relieve the load applied to the tape.
The following adhesives have been shown to adhere to Dibond® material. For specific questions about the adhesive, please refer to the adhesive manufacturer guidelines.
Isopropyl alcohol two-cloth cleaning method is a minimal surface preparation for all adhesive bonding.
1-part Silicones, Adhesives and Sealants:
- Dow 995: 1-part silicone structural adhesive
- Pecora 864, 890, 895: 1-part silicone sealant
- Tremco Spectrem 1, Spectrem 2, Proglaze SG: 1-part silicone sealant
- Schnee Morehead SM5731, 1-part silicone sealant
- GE SCS2800, SCS9000, SCS2000, SCS2900, GE7000, 1-part silicone sealant
Isopropyl alcohol two-cloth cleaning method is a minimal surface preparation for all adhesive bonding.
1-part Silicones or Urethane Adhesives/Sealants Requiring a Primer:
- Dow 790, Dow 795: 1-part silicone sealant
surface preparation: solvent wipe and Dow Corning 1200 Prime Coat required.
- Tremco Dymonic: 1-part polyurethane sealant
surface preparation: Isopropyl alcohol two-cloth cleaning method, primer #6
2-part Methacrylate, Urethane, and Epoxy Adhesives:
- Lord 406/19 (methacrylate), 7542AB, 7545AB (urethane)
- Extreme Adheisves 300, 310, 350, 5315, 5375 methyl methacrylate
- IPS Weld-On 45, Weld-On SS515 (methacrylate)
- Scotch Weld 3M 2216 (epoxy with long working time): Scuffing required
Isopropyl alcohol two-cloth cleaning method is a minimal surface preparation for all adhesive bonding.
The adhesive manufacturers have reported that, Lord 406/19 and IPS Weld-On 45 may also be used on unprimed aluminum. Testing on this substrate was not included in this report.
Synthetic rubber and 1-part Urethane Adhesives:
- Lord 7610 (1-part urethane): Scuffing required
- Schnee-Morehead SM7108 (1-part urethane)
- Liquid Nails LN-901 (synthetic rubber)
Isopropyl alcohol two-cloth cleaning method is a minimal surface preparation for all adhesive bonding.
Many different types of adhesives and tapes have been found to work well with Dibond® material. It is important to follow the guidelines listed above and to experiment with any new adhesive or technique prior to generating the final product.

Let me starts by saying when I joined Sirius a few years ago I joined to experience music played commercial free for 24 hours a days, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. I have been extremely happy for quite some time but I must add that since the merger the quality of music has gone down and continues to go down day by day.
I have been patient in listening to my favorite stations since the merger and now the time has come to express my feeling on 1 of these stations. Lets start with The Boneyard which used to be The Buzzsaw. When the saw was active the variety of straight kick ass music was second to none. It was my favorite station by far. With Keith, Paul and Remi behind the helm there was never a doubt that the playlists were going to keep people rocking. A mix from AC/DC to ZZ Top that no FM station could even come close to compete with. Now it has been replaced by The Boneyard a mix of only Classic Hard Rock. Now with some peoples interest in music this may be the ultimate station. So is Headbangers Ball on MTV. I listen to Sirius to listen to all kinds of music not the same playlists of the same artist over and over and over and over again. Artists that are guarenteed to be heard in a 90 minute span on The Boneyard are, Metallica, Van Halen, Def Leppard, Black Sabbath, Alice Cooper, Judas Priest, The Scorpions, AC/DC, Whitesnake, Aerosmith, Dio, Great White, Deep Purple, Guns, & Roses, Iron Maiden. Now nothing against these great artists but there is more to Hard Classic Rock than these handfull of artists. Not to mention that some of the songs have never even been played on air in the history of their releases. Its like the Dj's just pick a song out of the blue and don't care if the music fans likes them or not.
When The Buzzsaw was ROCKING Sirius there was more bands playing in a 24 hour period it was rare to hear the same group let alone the same song more than once. The Boneyard has its own following and The Buzzsaw had its own. Bring back The Buzzsaw! It Rocked, It Rolled, & the 3 DJ's played real music.

I picked up the phone. I had been thinking about my friend for most of the day. We hadn't talked in a couple months and I knew there was a lot of transition going on in his life. I wanted to check in. The phone rang and he picked up on the first ring. Just prior to my call he had clicked on an email folder that he had set up from my company. Today was not such a good day for him. Today was one of those days that you can never be prepared for. I didn't know why he was on my heart today. Now I know.
I just graduated from a 10-month intensive leadership program that seemed an impossibility a year ago. I knew I had to go the minute I heard about it. So, I signed up, I took the leap. Four weeks later, my financial situation crumbled beneath my feet. I knew I was meant to go but I had zero funds. Then I asked for help. Within 3 weeks of asking for over $13,000 I had all the money. I was stunned.

There's nothing quite like the feeling of coming home from a long day's work, tossing off those heavy work boots or painful high heels, and sinking your toes into the soft, woven threads of your luxurious carpet.
The beauty of carpet is in the simplicity that it offers and the comfort that it brings. And with today's modern technology, carpet can be used for much more than just warming up your feet (although that is a major plus). Now, carpet can be utilized as an essential decorative piece; a dramatic focal point in your interior designs. Through the use of bold colors and various textures, you can transform your living space into an area filled with style and character without sacrificing the soft, tactile sensation you desire for your carpet. Knowing that you can now keep the comfort and add in creativity, colour, texture, and comfort are three top trends in the flooring industry, causing the popularity of carpet to soar.
Before you choose which styles of carpet will be the best fit for your living space, take a look at these pointers to see which areas of your home could be the best match for highlighting these top trends.
Trend: Color
- Living rooms or dining rooms offer chances for you to create illusions with color. Use a lighter color if you desire your space to look larger and more open. Use darker tones to create a cozy atmosphere by drawing the room in to look smaller.
- Small spaces create an opportunity for bold statements. Adding a splash of strong color can add a fashionable touch without overwhelming the eye.
- For high-traffic areas like hallways or staircases, choose a dark colour to help hide dirt or vacuum marks.
Trend: Texture
- For moderate-to-high traffic areas, like your living room, choose a texture that is a good mix of soft and durable like wool. Its high quality of softness, long-lasting durability, and stain-repellant material makes it an all-time favorite for carpet lovers.
- To add some stylish dimension, choose chunky carpets with a variable pile height and mixed cut-and-loop piles.
Trend: Comfort
- Being a low-traffic area, your bedroom is the perfect spot to indulge in a deep-textured frieze, shag pile, or painterly design. Take advantage of your private space and allow your creativity and desire for comfort flow.
- High, dense twists, chunky felts, or oversized loop piles are the newest style options for obtaining fashionable comfort.

"BIG" has been in power for a while. Big banks. Big business. Big data. Big brother.
But big hasn't made the world better. Big has taken too much power, controlled too much wealth, made the world less equal. Big has made the average Joe feel like less of a man, and paid the average Joanne less than she's worth.
We believe in small. The local bike shop, the independent hairdresser, the plumber you've known for ten years. The family business that's going places. The scruffy old pub on the corner that's more interesting than a chain on the high street.
They might not be perfect, but these businesses are good for the world. Hard-working business owners have been made to feel small for too long. We're here to help the small walk tall.

Mariano Rivera tied for all-time saves record after Yankee win
TORONTO -- To Mariano Rivera, it was just another save. To Yankees manager Joe Girardi, there's no such thing.
Rivera tied the major league saves record, earning the 601st of his career and matching Trevor Hoffman while preserving the New York Yankees' 7-6 win over the Toronto Blue Jays on Saturday.
"To me it was normal," Rivera said.
With his team still trying to clinch the AL East, Girardi wasn't hearing any of that.
"Right now, they're all big for us," he said.
The 41-year-old Rivera was perfect in pitching the ninth inning for his 42nd save of the season, leaving him on the brink of sole ownership of the mark.
"602 is the big one because it just puts the final stamp on it that he's the greatest closer of all time," Girardi said.
If Rivera doesn't get the record Sunday, he'll likely reach it sometime during an eight-game homestand that begins Monday.
"I would love to get it at home, but I don't think like that," Rivera said.
Rivera struck out Colby Rasmus looking to start the ninth, then retired Brett Lawrie on a broken-bat grounder to first. While some in the crowd of 39,288 headed for the exits, most stayed to watch as Rivera got Eric Thames on a routine fly to center.
Even before the ball had been caught, Rivera walked off the mound with his head lowered to shake hands with catcher Russell Martin. Rivera broke into a smile during the postgame congratulations line and embraced teammate Alex Rodriguez.
Center fielder Curtis Granderson flipped Rivera the souvenir ball.
Rivera, whose wife and two youngest sons joined him in Toronto for the weekend, told the media hordes gathered around his locker that he doesn't enjoy the spotlight of his record pursuit.
"I am uncomfortable because I don't have this much attention at all," he said, smiling. "I would like you guys to just leave it alone. That would be good."
Rivera, now in his 17th season in the big leagues, recorded his 600th save at Seattle on Tuesday.
He also has 42 saves in postseason play.
"Mo is awesome," Rodriguez said. "You just run out of things to say about him. Every save he's had in his career meant something, and tonight was another example of that."
Blue Jays manager John Farrell called Rivera "the standard by which all are compared."
"If you're a fan of baseball and the game, you appreciate how good he is, how consistent he is," Farrell said.
The tying save came in Rivera's 60th appearance of the year, surpassing former Yankees teammate Mike Stanton with a record 14 seasons of 60 games.
Granderson hit his 40th homer, a go-ahead shot in the seventh to cap a 12 pitch at-bat. He fouled off seven straight pitches before homering.
Rodriguez hit his 16th home run as New York ended a two-game skid. The Yankees trailed 6-1 before beginning their comeback with four runs in the sixth.
Aaron Laffey (3-2) pitched one inning for the win. Scott Proctor, Laffey, Hector Noesi and Rafael Soriano each worked a scoreless inning before Rivera closed it out.
Bartolo Colon, who has not won in eight starts, allowed six runs and seven hits in four innings for New York.
"It wasn't great," Girardi said. "Six runs in four innings is not what we expect from Bartolo. We'll see if we can get him back on track his next start."
The Yankees closed to 6-5 in the sixth. Granderson led off with a double and scored when Rasmus bobbled Mark Teixeira's single to center. Robinson Cano was hit by a pitch and Rodriguez followed with his first home run since Sept. 4.
"I came up in the same situation a couple of innings before and didn't come through so I was glad to get another opportunity," Rodriguez said. "I got a good pitch to hit and capitalized."
Derek Jeter opened the Yankees seventh with an infield single and Granderson homered against Carlos Villanueva (6-4).
The Blue Jays scored four times in the second against Colon. Rasmus and Jose Molina each hit RBI doubles, Lawrie drove in a run with a groundout and Mike McCoy capped it with a squeeze bunt.
The Yankees answered with a run in the fourth, an inning marked by Cano's baserunning blunder. After hitting an RBI double, Teixeira moved to third when left fielder Adam Loewen dropped Cano's fly ball to left. One out later, Nick Swisher hit a liner into right center but Rasmus made a fine running catch for the second out. Thinking the ball would drop, Cano rounded third and passed Teixeira, who was heading back to tag up. Cano was ruled out, and the Blue Jays got credit for a double play.
"I think Robby thought the ball was going to drop for sure," Girardi said. "When Swish hit it, I thought it was going to fall, too. Still, you've got to make sure."
Toronto added to its lead and chased Colon with two runs in the bottom half, with McCoy hitting a two-out double to right.
NOTES: Rivera has blown five saves this season. ... Rodriguez batted fifth for the first time this season. He scored the 1,821st run of his career, tying Eddie Collins for 14th place on the all time list. ... The Yankees are an ML-best 40-11 in day games. ... Yankees RHP Phil Hughes (back spasms) has been scratched from Monday's start against Minnesota and will be replaced by RHP A.J. Burnett. Hughes, who felt sore after Friday's bullpen session, is expected to pitch Tuesday or Wednesday. ... New York OF Greg Golson celebrated his 26th birthday. ... Loewen made his first start in left field after previous appearances in right and center. ... New York RHP Freddy Garcia (11-7) faces Toronto RHP Brandon Morrow (9-11) in Sunday's series finale.

Sure, we just featured some ripping 2001 LEGO spaceship designs, but this is too stellar not to mention. As a promotion for The Phantom Menace's 3D re-release in Germany, LEGO builders Rene Hoffmeister and Lorenz Lnggrtnr constructed a massive circus organ that doubles as a gargantuan diorama. Explains Lorenz of its mechanics:
We took the four most famous Star Wars worlds — Hoth, Tatooine, Endor [Ed's Note: I'm guessing they meant Naboo] and the Death Star — and built them on to the barrel, accordingly to the musical composition. When the organ is turned, the bricks touch little mechanical sensors — which strike the keys of a keyboard and play the Star Wars main theme.

In an effort destined not to offend any gun owners whatsoever, Gawker published a list of registered pistol permit holders in New York City.
After the Journal News set the internet afire, publishing the home addresses of every gun owner in three suburban New York counties, Gawker responded to a comment made by conservative commentator Ann Coulter, who said "If we're producing lists of gun permit owners, I want them for Manhattan. I want to know how many rich liberals with their body guards have gun permits."
Conveniently, Gawker's John Cook noted that he had obtained said list from the NYPD back in 2010 for a previous story:
"You're in luck, Ann. I happened to have just such a list in my filing cabinet.
Here it is. Below is a 446-page list of every licensed gun owner in New York City. I obtained it from the NYPD two-and-a-half years ago via a Freedom of Information Law request. Because the NYPD is more interested in raping and/or eating ladies and spying on Muslims than it is in honoring public records law, the list contains only the names, and not the addresses, of the licensees. (If you're curious, here's what section 400.00 of the Penal Law of New York, entitled "Licenses to carry, possess, repair and dispose of firearms," has to say on the matter: "The name and address of any person to whom an application for any license has been granted shall be a public record." The only way to get the associated addresses from the NYPD, as the law requires, would be to take them to court, which no one has apparently done.)"
Cook goes on to note that, in fact, a number of rich guys with body guards (though not necessarily liberal) are permitted to carry pistols within New York City, which has some of the strictest gun laws in the nation. See the list here.
Anyway, it didn't take long (just over an hour, actually) for the death threats to start rolling in, according to Gawker's Hamilton Nolan. You can even listen to one here, but don't bother, its not that imaginative.

OBETZ, Ohio — Even though Crew defender Andy Iro will be staunchly rooting for his fellow Englishmen when they face the United States in a World Cup match June 12, he now considers America his primary residence.
"Funny enough, it's turned into my first home," he said. "I've been gone [from England] for six years now and only get home once a year. Most of the contacts I kept in England have slowly faded away."
He used soccer as a means to escape the rough streets of Liverpool, first at the University of California, Santa Barbara -- where he earned a sociology degree -- and now in his third season in Columbus.
"The way my life was going, I knew I had to leave Liverpool," he said. "I was getting into a lot of trouble and things weren't going right. I knew that America was the only place to offer me the opportunity to carry on me education as well as carry on playing. It was a big decision at 19 -- just upping and leaving, stick and bundle in hand, venturing across the world."
He quickly regretted leaving behind his parents, seven brothers and a sister as he tried to adjust to a new culture and lifestyle. Eventually, however, he grew thankful he had stayed.
"I was scared at first," Iro said. The first year was terrible. I thought about going back on numerous occasions, but after a year I never felt more free. Even nowadays I like the feeling of independence. I'm making it my own way with my own money. I wouldn't have picked it any different."
Iro started 86 games in four seasons at UCSB, helping the Gauchos win the 2006 NCAA title while earning the nod as the Big West Defensive of the Year each of his final three years on campus. Then it was abruptly off to Columbus, after he was taken sixth overall by the Crew in the 2008 MLS SuperDraft.
"Coming from England to America is different, but I found within America there are differences," he said. "California and Santa Barbara are so different from Columbus. It's a different group of people, different humor and a different way of life."
He's still partial to the Golden State, even though he's constantly on the move. Iro spends most of his offseason in Southern California, but often goes to San Francisco.
"Then I go back to England for two weeks," he said. "I also try to get two weeks of travel in. Two years ago, I went to Morocco and Spain. This past year, it was France and Belgium."
The nomadic lifestyle is a metaphor for his time with the Crew because Iro has never been able to settle into a starting center-back spot. He made 11 starts among 18 regular-season appearances as a rookie and came off the bench in three playoff games as the Crew won the MLS Cup in 2008.
He was befallen by a left quadriceps strain last season that cost him two months and limited him to 11 games (eight starts).
In his absence, first-year defender Eric Brunner or veteran Danny O'Rourke usually started in the middle alongside MLS Defender of the Year Chad Marshall. The four are in the mix again this season.
"It's a competition," coach Robert Warzycha said. "He's battling with Brunner, O'Rourke and Chad Marshall, so it's also based on their performances."
Marshall has been sidelined for nearly a month with a hamstring injury, but may return Saturday at FC Dallas. Iro has done well replacing him in a CONCACAF Champions League match against Toluca and in the MLS opener vs. Toronto FC on March 27.
"The last game couple of games Iro was pretty good," Warzycha said. "He was good against Toluca and against Toronto, but there's room for improvement. He needs to be consistent. He needs to be cleaner with the ball. He has to play the ball quicker."
Iro knows the time is now to grab a first XI spot and hold onto it. And more importantly, he needs to showcase himself so he can eventually return to England to finish his career.
"I've got to go back," Iro said. "My mom is yet to see me in a soccer game, even college. She's ill so she can't make it out. She can't fly. Even through high school she's never seen me play. I also think I can be a good role model, especially in the neighborhood that I grew up in, to go back and they'd say, 'Look, he did it.' That would be really cool."
As for that World Cup match against the U.S. on "enemy" soil in Columbus, Iro sees himself watching England top the Americans 3-1.
"I'll be sitting with my Gerrard jersey at the most patriotic bar, wherever that is," he said. "I'll be thoroughly, thoroughly supporting England. I'll be loud and proud."

Apple has come in for heavy criticism after a woman was allegedly tasered by police at one of its stores after refusing to leave when told she would not be allowed to buy more than two iPhones.
Xiaojie Li of Newton in Massachusetts bought two iPhone 5s at the store in Nashua New Hampshire last week, which were apparently intended as gifts for relatives in China.
When returning to buy a further iPhone this week Li was told by Apple sales staff that she had exceeded a two phones per customer limit designed to foil profit-seeking Internet resellers.
After refusing or failing to understand their request to leave - Li is reported to speak poor English - amateur footage posted on YouTube shows her being dragged from the store by police officers who are accused of tasering her while prone.
A police spokesperson later described the arrest as "a criminal trespass incident and fairly routine here."
Police claim Li had $16,000 (£10,000) in her purse at the time of her arrest. Her fiance claimed the phones were meant for the woman's sister and denied she intended to resell them.
Regardless of Li's intention in buying the phones, reaction on social media has been near-universally critical of the heavy-handed response by police and, by extension, Apple.
'Tasered for buying too many iPhones,' is probably not a headline that will be well-received in China itself, the country in which the iPhone is manufactured.

Celebrated poet and writer Eileen Myles reflects on the love and loss of a canine companion in the new book "Afterglow (a dog memoir)."
From the moment Myles picked her from a litter in 1990, Rosie had been essential part of Myles' life and work. Myles' devotion to the dog never waned in the sixteen years they were together. Beginning with the void created in Myles' heart after the death of Rosie, "Afterglow" gives us an intimate and special account of the relationship between pet and pet-owner. Through this storytelling, we witness Myles's experiences with intimacy and spirituality, celebrity and politics, alcoholism and recovery, fathers and family history, as well as the fantastical myths we spin to get to the heart of grief.
