COLLAPSE OF A STAND PIPE.
The Great Structure at Peoria That Broke Off at the Base and Let Out Over 400,OOO Gallons of Water—Interesting Description of the Tower and the Break.
[Reported Specially for FIRE AND WATER.]
THE ordinance under which the Peoria, Ill., Water Company built its works required that there must be a storage reservoir and two water towers, of a combined capacity of 20,000,000 U. S. gallons. Their flow line is at elevation 320 city datum, or about 220 feet above the general level at the court house. The towers were built on the top of the long bluff, which runs nearly parallel, and about a mile back from the river, and in somewhat open parts of the otherwise thickly built-up districts; (the line of the bluffs is nearly east and west) that at the upper end or on the east bluff being on higher ground, was made thirty (30) feet in diameter by eighty-five (85) feet high, and the other, or the west bluff tower, built near the corner of Hourkiand ave. and College st., was twenty-five (25) feet in diameter by one hundred and twenty (120) feet in height.
The plans and specifications for the entire works were prepared by Chester H. Davis, Mem. Am. Soc., C. E. The work of construction was placed in charge of E. H. Burlingame, C. E., who was made the president of the company, the reservoir and stand pipe construction being in the direct charge of Eugene Carroll, C. K., his assistant. The towers were built by the Porter Manufacturing Company, of Syracuse, N. V., and were completed and put into use about May 1, 1890. They were tight and apparently all right and never gave any trouble or cause for uneasiness until on Friday, March 30, at about 10:20 A. M., the one on the west bluff, from some cause not yet determined, burst with a succession of pistol-like reports, wrecking it completely and doing some, but not serious, damage to the buildings in the vicinity. One boy was killed, being crushed under the bent edge of falling sheets, and fifteen more people were more or less injured by being tossed about by the escaping waters.
The tower contained about 400,000 gallons, the water being somewhat below its natural level on that day, so that the water was not over 105 feet deep in the tower, causing a pressure at its base of from 46 to 47 pounds.
The day of the failure was warm, pleasant and the wind was blowing, but not strong, from the west ; the rate was probably not over six or eight miles per hour. The weather had been mild for two or three weeks and no ice existed in the tower.
There had been a slight leak at the top of the seventh course, thirty-live (35) feetfrom the base, on the northwest side of the tower, and workmen had been sent to examine, to make it tight if necessary, and to paint the discolored portions of the tower. It was found to be rusted up and tight, so no caulking was done. The man painting it had reached the ground but a moment before the break occurred. As this joint and the plates around it are all intact and unbroken, it is evident that the fault was not at that point.
The water was supplied to the tower from the avenue west of it, through a 16-inch cast iron main, entering the tower through its bottom plate.
A manhole was at the east side of the tower in the lowest, or first course, and it remains intact in the sheet, save that the bottom of the sheet is torn away through a few of its rivet holes, thus breaking off a portion of the bottom of the flange. The sheets built five feet courses, six sheets to the course. About one-third of the sheet only remained attached to the casting, and it, with a portion cf the second, third, fourth and fifth courses lie about thirty (30) feet southeast.
A careful study of relative positions of the pieces, as they now lie, of the condition and position of the holding-down bolts, the effects of the water and other facts bearing upon it, show that the rupture began on the north side of the tower, at or near a seam between the first and second courses, and its joint between two second course plates, and from there it tore upward to the right and to the left.
Some pieces, say one-fourth the arc at the immediate left (or easterly) side, were thrown varying distances to the street and yards beyond, in a north, northeasterly course beyond them. At the right, or westerly side, a piece three courses high (15) by forty (40) feet long, or more than half the circumference, was torn off down to the bottom rim of angle irons, was straightened out, lifted up about twelve (12) feet and thrown against the cottage one hundred (100) feet distant, and a little to the west-of south. The remaining quarter, containing manhole, and with some part of the fourth, fifth and sixth courses, was thrown fifty (50) feet east of southeast, with the upper course plates bent down on the top of those of the lower course.
Practically all of the tower above the sixth course was turned quarter way round, and fell almost due east, the joint between the seventh and eighth courses being about sixteen (16) feet from the base of the tower. The joint between the eighth and ninth courses was torn partly through the rivet holes for two-thirds of the circumference, and was stretched out to the northwest, and the end was due north from the base and fourteen (14) feet away from it.
As the tower fell the ladder is at the top near the east side, and pointing directly at its former position. The tower in falling was flattened to about six feet, and was broken most at the top from the fall.
Within the last month observations made on the tower showed that it was truly vertical.
The tower was built in level courses, with the lesser diameter downwards.
A large portion of the fourth, fifth and sixth courses (say 15 by 20 ft.) was blown west across the arc, cutting off cleanly a tree nine inches through, near the butt. A piece weighing several hundred pounds was thrown 250 feet southwest, and small pieces spread from west to northeast; the remainder, a piece, fifteen by fifteen feet, being dropped 75 feet northeast, cutting off near the bottom a tree seven or eight inches in diameter.
The following is an extract from the specifications, including everything which refers to the construction of the tower and the metal to be used in it.
SPECIFICATIONS FOR STAND PIPES.
The metal of the plates must be of a soft, homogeneous steel, unless otherwise specified, possessing a maximum tensile strength ol sixty-six thousand (66,000) pounds and minimum tensile strength of fifty-five (55,000) thousand 'pounds per square inch, and bcofficially and legally stamped; must be smooth, truly and evenly rolled and uniform in size, and sufficently ductile to admit of rolling while cold around a radius of twenty (20) inches, without developing flaws, cracks, splits, or any other features which would render them unfit for the work in the opinion of the engineer. The plates will be inspected by the engineer, upon notification before being put into the pipe and before painting, and all improper plates will be rejected.
Where iron plates are specified the iron must be best quality tank iron, having a tensile strength of 48,000 pounds per square inch.
Test pieces of the plates will be made and broken by the contractor in the presence of the engineer, when he may desire, and at no extra expense to the purchaser.
They must not be less than the thickness specified.
The plates will be of such width that each course will build practically five (5) feet. Each sheet will be not less than twelve feet in length.
Burden's "best-best" rivets must be used for the whole work.
All horizontal joints will be single riveted, and the vertical joint will be double riveted, unless otherwise specified. The diameters and pitch of rivets must be satisfactory to the engineer.
The manhole, plate, rings, etc., inlet pipes and flanges, and all other cast iron work, will be of good quality, of fine gray pig iron, and must be sound, strong, smooth and perfect castings, and properly coated.
The bottom plate will be of half-inch wrought iron with half-inch cover plates and butt joints, double riveted with three-fourths inch rivets, and double riveted to angle rings as shown, which in turn will be double riveted to the bottom course, seven-eighths inch rivets being used.
The flanges of the inlet and blow-off pipes will be bolted to the bottom plates, using lead or corrugated copper gaskets at all flange joints. The joints must be left water tight.
The bottom plates must be set in cement or grouting (one part Kosendale, or equivalent cement, and three parts sharp, clean, fine sand), and so that no void will exist beneath it, or in a mixture of asphaltum and bitumen, as desired and directed, by the engineer,
The bottom plate must be truly level and the first course plates truly vertical when set in place.
The stand pipe must be of the dimensions specified, at the least, inside diameter.
The bottom course will be an outside course, and those above will be alternately inside and outside courses, or bevel courses upon approval.
A suitable oval manhole 15 inches by 18 inches, or acceptable equivalent complete, and wrought iron lugs for holding down bolts, will be properly riveted to the stand pipe as above.
Twelve holding down bolts of best refined iron, provided witn washers, plates, alcove-nuts, lugs and steel pins, etc., and reaching to the bottom of the foundation will be furnished as shown on drawing for each stand pipe.
Lay all holes out carefully and accurately and punch with a centre punch, sharp and in perfect order, from the surface to be in contact, and so that the bevel of the hole may be away from the surface in contact.
Plates showing any indications of hardness or brittleness, .may be annealed after punching or rejected at the option of the engineer.
Plates having ragged holes or holes so much out of place as to require the use of the drift-pin will be rejected.
All plates must be planed to a slight bevel in a machine and be carefully calked with a round nosed teal and made perfectly tight. Lay all the work out so that each joint will come half way between those of the next course.
Where three plates join, the over-lap is to be neatly scarfed down while hot. Heat rivets uniformly and carefully and never set one when cooler than red-hot. The riveting must be done in a neat and workmanlike manner.
The following schedule gives thickness and data for riveting stand-pipe for west bluff, diameter 25 feet, height 120 feet :
Provide and construct balcony and crestings as shown by detail drawings o( iron.
A ladder fifteen inches witie of three-fourths inch round iron rungs, shaped as shown, will be riveted by suitable brackets, or braces, not more than ten feet apart, to each standpipe. The steps will be twelve inches apart, and begin nine feet above the water table.
They will project six inches except when drawn differently.
The side bars or ladder will be one-half by three and onetjuartcr inches.
After inspection which will be at the shop, each sheet must tie cleaned and painted, or dipped into a bath of hot asphaltum, and before being placed in the standpipe. There must tie no paint on surface in contact. After testing, the work will be given two coats asphaltum or lead in oil, to suit the engineer.
Paint alt other iron work three coats.
Paint all wood two coats.
The standpipe will be treated before receiving the final coats of asphaltum, by being filled w ith water, and by being allowed to remain full for such time as the engineer may deem necessary to satisfy himself that the work is water tight,
A study of the fractures shows that in nearly every instance ruptures in A vertical direction have been through the sheets rather than along the triple or double riveted vertical joints, and that, in most instances, transverse ruptures were through the rivet holes of the single riveted horizontal joints. A careful and thorough study of the case, with a hope of determining the cause of the wreck, is being made by the Superintent and by the company's Consulting Engineer.
Those injured in the accident are doing so well it is thought that no serious or permanent injuries will result to any of them.
The foundation of the tower was left entirely uninjured, save that portions of the coping or water table stone which was put in in twelve pieces, were moved or broken. Three pieces, each weighing about too pounds, were carried about 150 feet south and east. The earth around the foundation was washed away for a depth of from three to five feet for a distance of twenty to thirty feet from the tower. It may be interesting to note that the inrer surface of the sheets shows a peculiar corjosion similar to that which has often been observed here in the cast iron and wrought iron water pipes, which it has been necessary to remove or repair on account of electrolysis. This corrosion takes the form of blisters or excrescences, generally elongated and globular in shape, with the longer axis vertical. These blisters are composed of a skin of brown oxide overlying what appears to be a thin coating of black oxide. Under this second coating the surface is pitted, often to a depth of an eighth of an inch. The surface at the pits when the oxide is removed shows a clean metallic appearance. The inside of the 16 inch cast iron inlet pipe, which was not painted, or coated, shows similar but larger blisters and pits. The blisters and pits appear to increase in number and size from the top toward the bottom of the standpipe, the small pits near the top, however, being almost as deep as the larger ones lower down.
The inner surface of the upper course of sheets, which is seldom wet, shows very little oxidation, and none of this character. The two next courses, which are alternately wet and dry, show this corrosion to a limited extent. The 16-inch branch feeding the tower is crossed by a double electric railway, which runs along the main for nearly a mile from the tower. All the principal mains of the system are paralleled or crossed by double-track electric railways. The same corrosion is observed in the tower on the East Bluff.

Notes on Punishment


This year I will be celebrating 25 years since I first found this philosophy. It is still every bit as exciting as the first day I walked into what are now called Centers for Spiritual Living.
My ministry here at our Center is all about education and counseling. What I know is that we all come together on Sundays and have a joyous and uplifting spiritual experience. Everything comes together to create a magnificent expression of Spirit in action. From the message to the music to the fellowship, we are filled. I believe this to be an important part of our spiritual practice.
What I know from my own personal journey is that Sundays are amazing, but where you really learn the Principles and learn how to put them into practice in your life, is in class. Not only do you gain the opportunity to deepen your own understanding and spirituality, you also gain from mixing with the other people in class. From sharing and listening to others, you often find yourself looking at a point-of-view you never considered before. That is magic.
Our goal is never to teach you what to think. Rather we want to help each person practice how to think and come to their own conclusions. We are above all a doctrine of self-responsibility. That means you decide what serves you in the way you think, live and have your being.
The other area in which I have focused my ministry is around counseling. All of the ministers here at the Center are available by appointment for Spiritual Counseling. We each charge of fee for our time and have sliding scales for those who need them.
Practitioners pray and guide by sharing Principles. What they do is the backbone of what we teach. Ministers are trained to take it to the next level. Providing counseling to those who find themselves at a place in life where they desire or need the guidance a trained Minister can provide. We hold each client's information in strict confidence. It is important to know that all our Practitioners and Ministers are Mandated Reporters. This means that we cannot hold confidence in cases of abuse or certain other crimes. However, this rarely comes to play in the day to day counseling we do.
Counseling with a minister is not like going to a psychologist. We are not trying to psychoanalyze anyone. We are trained to listen and help people in exploring beliefs and patterns in their lives, that may be blocking them from experiencing the life they desire. And of course we always pray.
Prayer is the greatest and most powerful tool we have. The power of God in your life is far greater than any obstacle you see before you. We are masters in knowing this Truth and one person in consciousness is a majority.
Being a minister is the most gratifying thing I have done in my life. It is my great joy to be in service to this community.

Hatch: Romney Is The 'Perfect' Candidate To Run For My Seat
(Photo credit: MANDEL NGAN/AFP/Getty Images)
Kerry Picket Political Reporter
Utah Republican Sen. Orrin Hatch revealed that if he retires in 2018, Mitt Romney would be a "perfect" candidate to replace him.
Hatch, the longest-serving Republican senator in history, was first elected in 1976. He told National Journal Tuesday that he "might very well consider" retiring if an "outstanding person" were to run.
Orrin Hatch tells @arogDC he might be willing to retire … if he could hand his seat to Mitt Romney. ($$) https://t.co/sG5lZmnd3R pic.twitter.com/9XL8p0MLVf
— Ben Pershing (@benpershing) March 29, 2017
When asked if he had any specific person in mind, Hatch responded, "Well, Mitt Romney would be perfect." He added that he has reached out to Romney about the idea.
Last February, Romney, the Republican party's 2012 presidential candidate, did not reject the idea of a run for Hatch's Senate seat.
"I don't have any predictions on what I might do. I'm not going to open a door and I'm not going to close a door. All doors are open," Romney told the Deseret News.
Romney could have competition from other Utah Republicans, however. Other names floated in the past to run for Hatch's seat include former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman, Utah Republican Rep. Jason Chaffetz, and 2016 presidential candidate Evan McMullin.

Home / Board Games Betrayal Legacy
Betrayal Legacy
Cooperative Play Exploration Halloween Horror
Betrayal Legacy marries the concept of Betrayal at House on the Hill — exploring a haunted mansion — with the permanency and multi-game storytelling exhibited by Daviau's Risk Legacy and other legacy games that followed. Betrayal Legacy consists of a prologue and a thirteen-chapter story that takes place over decades. Players represent families, with specific members of a family participating in one story, then perhaps an older version of those characters (assuming they lived) or their descendants showing up in later stories.
Why would people keep exploring a haunted mansion for decade after decade, especially when horrible things happen there? Curiosity, I suppose, or perhaps an ignorant boldness that comes from the belief that we know better than those who have come before. Look at all that we've learned, marvel at the tools we have at hand! Surely we'll all exit safely this time...
As with other Betrayal titles, the game is narratively-driven, with elements that record the history of your specific games. The tools mentioned earlier, for example, become attached to specific families. This isn't just a bucket; it's my bucket, the one my grandpappy used to feed his family's pigs when he was a boy, and while you can certainly use that bucket, I know how to wield it best from the time he spent teaching me how to slop. Yes, it's an heirloom bucket, and when kept in the family, I get a bonus for using it.

WW2 and beer combine two things that are very popular with many of my customers. So I've taken my popular Nazi Party Rally Grounds Tour, which is a great way to learn about the former nazi party rally grounds and National Socialism, and combined it with something else that is very popular with my customers...BEER! Talk about killing two birds with one stone. With this tour you will not only quench your thirst for WW2 knowledge, but have a chance to wash it down with some excellent German beer as well.
This tour begins at 1:30pm and we start off by visiting the Luitpold Arena site, the Congress Hall, the Great Road, and the Zeppelin Field.
At 5:30pm we head to the first of the three micro breweries in the Old Town for dinner and beer. From there we head to the second of the three micro breweries for a red beer. And to top the tour off we'll finish up at the newest of the three micro breweries for a real nice selection of beers. As we walk from pub to pub I'll also fill you in on some of Nuremberg's medieval history as well (food and beer not included in the tour price).
This tour is for parties of six or less, pick-up and drop-off with my personal vehicle from locations within central Nuremberg is FREE. If your party is larger than six people, please let me know so I can give you a quote for the additional costs involved.
The tour duration is 7+ hours.

A Bold Voice for Change
By eric skalij on May 28, 2019
Christine Boyle (BSc Global Resource Systems 2007), a first time Councillor for the City of Vancouver, isn't afraid to take on big issues. When announcing her decision to run, she decided to focus her campaign on tackling the growing wealth gap, housing affordability, and on strengthening community engagement.
Boyle has been a passionate activist for social and environmental justice issues for many years, including during her time as a UBC student. She helped organize the early FarmAde concerts, and was a part of the student advocacy to save the UBC Farm when its future was uncertain. "My experiences in community activism at UBC have informed much of the knowledge and relationship skills that I bring to my efforts on city council to create positive social change."
After graduating, Boyle spent many years in frontline community support roles. She then went on to complete an MA in Religious Leadership for Social Change from the Graduate Theological Union in Berkeley, California, and became an Ordained Minister in the United Church of Canada.
Boyle has volunteered for campaigns of leaders she's looked up to in the past, and is a strong supporter of having more underrepresented groups run for elected office, such as women and people of colour. When she was encouraged to run herself, she did it for all the reasons she's encouraged others to. "We need different types of leaders, people who will be brave in taking on inequality and climate change."
Less than three months after the election, Boyle has taken a major step to do just that.
In January, she introduced a motion before city council to declare a climate emergency. It passed unanimously, and has set the stage for the city to bring forward stronger proposals. "It has been incredible to move this forward, and we're already beginning to see the impact. We now have the mandate to dramatically strengthen Vancouver's climate plan and to take action, on everything from infrastructure to sea level rise to reducing our carbon pollution levels in line with what the science requires."
Ultimately, Boyle believes that building a social movement is needed to pressure governments to tackle any large issue. "The work of municipal government is real to residents, it is on-the-ground and in their neighbourhoods. I encourage everyone who is concerned about their city and our shared future to engage with elected officials, and to get involved in collective action."

Today I'm going to talk about holes in houses. House holes, as it were. You know the type…doors, windows, that sort of thing. In the last couple of days, house holes have been rather important around here.
Bear with me as I give you a bit of personal door history that seems irrelevant, but isn't. I break door latches. I am a world-class latch breaker. You see, we live in a farmhouse that is well over 100 years old. Old houses like to move with the seasons. When they do, the outside doors often don't shut properly because everything ceases to line up and the latches don't latch. To me, this is unacceptable, so I try to force them closed until I break the latch. I should be more precise and say latchES because I've done this more than once. I swear it will work someday, but don't tell my long-suffering husband Bill that I said that. I'm in enough trouble already.
It was when the frost settled under the sunroom that things got a little dicey. You know where I'm going with this right? Yes, the main door at the back of the house was no longer shutable. Is that a word? Hey, if I typed it, it must be. Being the stubborn person I am, I HAD to make that door close. Yes, I broke that latch, too. This was a problem because this door would now swing in the wind unless we locked it. But if we locked it, we could no longer enter the back of the house. I finally figured out a bungee cord solution that kept the wind from opening it up, but we still locked it most of the time because our Great Dane Walter would get out otherwise. It wasn't a perfect system, but it worked…sort of. Keep in mind that during all of this, long-suffering husband Bill is trying his best to avoid saying: "I told you not to force that door closed!" He would be right, of course. Still, saying it might have been life-threatening so he restrained himself.
Yeah, that's the very long door history. It does provide a backdrop to explain why the next part was so mortifying. Yesterday was a 'Wendy day'. Wendy comes here a couple of times a week to clean and generally keep us from being the slovenly people we are. She puts up with a lot around here. She keeps things somewhat orderly and keeps us in our place if we mess up. 'Mess up' literally and figuratively, that is. She's like family and I don't know what we'd do without her. She loves Walter, too. That's saying a lot right there!
Yesterday, Wendy informed me that she entered the house through the dog door. I'm not kidding! That door with the broken latch was locked and she couldn't get in that way. She could have tried getting in by the front door, with a perfect working latch I might add. But since the snowbanks are high, she would have to walk along a very busy road to get there. She didn't want to park in front because the carpenters were working away on the new garage and mudroom. This was not going to deter her. Wendy, being the resourceful woman she is, just crawled through the dog door to get in. Let me emphasize that she not only had to get through the dog door itself but also had crawl under a flight of stairs and through another opening. It's hard to describe, so see below. Why didn't she call and have me unlock the door? It was because it was very early and she didn't want to wake us up. I know I can be frightening before I've had my coffee, but still! Silly woman.
Dog door accessed under a stairway and through an opening into the back of the house.
Meet Steve, our carpenter/designer who made this process so easy. We are so lucky to have him.
Here's Joe, Steve's trusty sidekick. He's always smiling, even when he's trying to avoid the camera!
So that's the story of the house holes. Doors, dog doors, and a new entryway. The only thing we didn't talk about is windows. A window is what I'll be thrown through if I break any more latches.
lol… I've used bungee cords to keep a gate closed, so whatever works. So you no longer have a pantry then? Doesn't seem like a good trade off. And how come no stranger has ever made himself welcome by crawling through the dog door?
Any stranger silly enough to use Walter's door wouldn't be visiting long.
The good thing is Walters door is pretty big. The bungee cord made me 😂😂😂 my hubby is a believer in those things. I understand with the latches, i grew up in a historic home, the doors do change with the seasons. 😊 A new house hole is wonderful!! You will be so happy when it snows a foot and your car will be nice and clean 💗 Hugs my friend!!
Oh my! Old houses are fun, for sure. But not for you! You made me laugh about the 4 cats in the bathroom. There is a t-shirt that says: "Owning a Great Dane means never having to go to the bathroom alone." I wonder if they have one for cats!?
Haha, oh my, I have also broken my fair share of latches! I can't believe Wendy came in through the dog door, wow!
She's a very dedicated person! I'm glad I'm not the only latch-breaker around. Maybe we should start a support group!
Latches? We don't need no stinking latches!
I like how you think. Would you mind having a chat with Bill about this? Or perhaps Alexis could chime in. Yes, she would put him right!
Sure! I'll chat with anyone about anything, even if I don't know what I'm talking about (which is just about all the time).
And you are quite right about Alexis. She has very strong and very definite opinions about a wide range of subjects!
Wendy is very enterprising I have to say.
Bungee cord? My office mate Helen uses one of her old bras to keep a door closed so her cat can't escape.
I think I like Helen. That's something I might do if a bungee hadn't been handy.
You definitely would like Helen. Pretty much everyone does.
Hilarious! 😄 I'm still smiling while I write this. By the way, what Wendy did is something I would definitely do myself.
Don't forget to join us on Fridays for Guest in Jest!

Tree-Kanken: Fjallraven Introduces '100% Bio-Based Backpack'
January 5, 2021 | By Adam Ruggiero
Fjallraven's bestselling backpack gets a major sustainability makeover.
Walk into any Fjallraven store, and you're sure to see it: one wall, a motley color-splashed collection of the iconic, square-shaped Kanken backpacks. Part tote bag, part commuter pack, the Kanken has become the most iconic product from Fjallraven.
So much so, in fact, the Swedish outdoor gear manufacturer even calls it "an ambassador for the Fjallraven brand." Originally launched in the late '70s, the Kanken has consistently been well-received among consumers worldwide — from 2010 to 2017, Fjallraven saw sales of the Kanken increase tenfold.
And while Fjallraven has added new colors and materials, artist collabs, and charitable initiatives over the decades to keep the Kanken line fresh, 2021 will see the most sustainable Kanken to date. Launching this fall, Fjallraven introduces the Tree-Kanken, a backpack made from a new, 100% plant-based fabric called Pine Weave.
"In creating Pine Weave … we have comprehensively improved and modified the process involved — from fiber to yarn to weave to fabric and coating — creating a fabric that lives up to the high standards that are expected from all Fjallraven products," the brand said.
Osprey Aether 55 and Ariel 55: The Cadillac of Backpacks
We tested the Aether 55 and Ariel 55 during a 2-day backpacking trip, overloading them on purpose, for this first look review. Check it out! Read more…
What's more, the Tree-Kanken uses Pine Weave derived from Forest Stewardship Council-certified sustainable forests. This certification ensures the Pine Weave is fully traceable and doesn't come from trees that grow naturally in virgin forests.
In addition, Fjallraven uses Bluesign-certified dyes. Paired with the Pine Weave's production process, it results in 65% less water, 40% less energy, and 50% fewer chemicals used to make the Tree-Kanken.
Fjallraven 'Tree-Kanken' Backpack
With the exception of the zippers and straps, all the fabric on the Tree-Kanken are plant-based. But the specs — the design and details that made the Kanken so popular — largely remain the same.
The Tree-Kanken's 16L capacity opens up via the large U-pocket Kanken fans are used to. This time, Fjallraven replaces the accessory kangaroo-style pocket with a large vertical zipper to access a flat front pocket.
Meanwhile, the straps wrap underneath, so you can tighten down a yoga mat or puffy on the outside. And daisy chains run along the face, perfect for attaching a bike lock, light, keys, or other accessories.
The Fjallraven Tree-Kanken launches this fall at $115 MSRP. This eco-friendly pack will roll out in four muted colors: yellow, green, blue, and black.

CoEPP in conjunction with the International Particle Physics Outreach group (IPPOG) is offering a one-day masterclass for year 11 and 12 students who are studying physics.
The world's largest particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), located at CERN in Geneva explores the fundamental building blocks of the universe. By recreating the conditions moments after the Big Bang, the experiments at the LHC endeavor to resolve some longstanding mysteries of the universe.
This masterclass provides an overview of the LHC and the physics involved. Students will work with real data from the ATLAS experiment at the LHC and will be taught by physicists on the cutting-edge of big science.
The class will be offered at the Universities of Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney and will be run concurrently. Students will work with CoEPP physicists, researchers from Fermilab (USA) via a video link, and the day will culminate with a virtual visit from the ATLAS control room (CERN, Geneva). Lunch and all materials will be provided.

Loading breaches 'rife' in grain haulage
Grain haulage sector "rife" with loading breaches, according to advisory firm, as lack of weighbridges threatens to bring operators unstuck
The grain haulage sector of the trucking industry is "rife" with loading breaches, according to an advisory firm, as a lack of weighbridges at farms threatens to bring operators unstuck.
The business development manager of Bulknet, Nik Malijkovic, says it is common that drivers receiving loads at farms are forced to rely on the vehicle's air pressure gauge to calculate a load's mass.
As well as the devices lacking accuracy, Malijkovic says drivers are sometimes not fast enough to signal the farmer to stop loading the vehicle before the mass exceeds the weight limit.
"You would be shocked to learn how many companies we work with are regularly overloading by 25 percent and just don't realise it," Malijkovic says.
"Grain haulage overloads are particularly rife and it is often not until you get into the grain receiving station that you are aware of your breach."
A truck exceeding its regulated mass by 20 percent is counted as a severe breach under chain of responsibility laws for mass management, which put the onus on all parties in the supply chain to correctly load vehicles.
As well as risking road safety, Malijkovic says overloaded trucks also cut into bottom lines and productivity because receivers are turning away trucks that do not meet weight requirements.
If a zero tolerance policy is enforced, Malijkovic says drivers are forced to leave the site and tip off the excess grain and then return to the queue to enter the site.
"This is a waste of time and the driver has now transported this extra freight, which he is not going to be paid for," Malijkovic says.
WHAT DO WE DO, OPERATORS ASK
And as the high-profile chain of responsibility battle between the Roads and Traffic Authority and GrainCorp continues, Malijkovic says many in the trucking industry are still struggling to understand their obligations.
"In my opinion, far too many operators remain ignorant about CoR [chain of responsibility]. They decide to take the risk and simply rely on the hope that they don't get caught," he says.
"Many are unsure about some parts of the legislation concerning exemptions and how they can protect themselves from the chain."
Malijkovic says businesses must spend time understanding the laws, which he argues can help establish a level playing field.
"Transport companies operating illegally can artificially position themselves to be cheaper in the market…This ultimately sets an unrealistic benchmark for transportation pricing structures being lower than what is commercially deemed possible," he says.
Malijkovic says it is in the best interests of industry groups and individual sectors in the supply chain to work together to end rogue practices.
"If you operate within the law the rogue traders will eventually be forced out of receiving stations. No one will want to touch them," he says.

Sean Hall, a reporter at WKBK-FM radio in Keene, New Hampshire, has died in a traffic crash in the town of Richmond. He was 63.
Mike Daniele, the station's news director, confirmed Hall died in the crash the night of Nov. 24.
Police say Hall was traveling on a Richmond road when his vehicle crossed the center line into the path of a pickup truck and the vehicles collided. Hall died at the scene. The other driver suffered minor injuries.
Hall joined WKBK about five years ago. He was the main weekend reporter. Hall had worked in broadcast journalism for more than four decades, including at NBC Radio, the Mutual Broadcasting System, CNN Radio and WTOP in Washington, D.C.
This story has been corrected to show that the accident happened in Richmond, New Hampshire, not Richmond, Virginia.

New Endangered Cayman Rock Iguana Exhibit opens at Cayman Turtle Centre
A new terrestrial exhibit at the Cayman Turtle Centre: Island Wildlife Encounter featuring the Sister Islands Rock Iguana, Cyclura nubila caymanensis (otherwise known as the Cayman Rock Iguana/Sister Islands Iguana) opened in March.
This species of iguana - a cousin to the better known Blue Iguana - is endemic to Cayman Brac & Little Cayman. It is an endangered species that is highly threatened on Cayman Brac, but more abundant on Little Cayman. However, both populations are considered vulnerable and are both continuously threatened by development, road kills, and free-roaming cats and dogs. The species is both internationally and locally protected.
On loan to the Cayman Turtle Centre from the Cayman Islands Government Department of Environment (DoE), this female Cayman Rock Iguana is currently housed in the iguana enclosure located just outside of the park's Caribbean Free-flight Aviary.
The iguana was found in Grand Cayman in April 2013 and was transferred to the care of the Cayman Turtle Centre in late May 2013 due to concerns over its apparently failing health, and the lack of appropriate resources at the DoE to rehabilitate the animal over an extended time period.
While housed at the Cayman Turtle Centre, the iguana has been rehabilitated and nursed back to prime health. She also underwent DNA analysis to confirm her identity and island origin, which was part of a DNA analysis study carried out by a student at the Mississippi State University under the supervision of Dr. Mark Welch , a specialist in Cyclura species genetics.
Although the student's results indicated that the iguana is a Sister Islands Rock Iguana, a larger DNA analysis of the Sister Islands Rock Iguana is currently underway to see if each island has their own unique population. The DoE recommended in accordance with best practices that the iguana remains with the Cayman Turtle Centre pending the imminent results of the larger genetic analysis and then a final health screening, prior to release.
In the meanwhile, this particular iguana offers an educational opportunity by remaining on display at the Cayman Turtle Centre for the benefit of visitors and guests. Over 2000 local schoolchildren visit the Cayman Turtle Centre each year on educational visits as part of their school curriculum.
Cayman Turtle Centre's Curator of Terrestrial Exhibits and Education Programmes, Mr. Geddes Hislop, is working closely with the DoE to ensure that the iguana is appropriately cared for, and also in the development of an education programme centered on this species.
For more information and admission rates, call the Cayman Turtle Centre: Island Wildlife Encounter on 949-3894, email info@turtle.ky or visit www.turtle.ky

Punjab CM 'deliberately' ignored state's claim on SYL canal waters: Akali Dal
The Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) on Friday slammed Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann for deliberately not fielding any senior lawyer to represent Punjab's case in the Supreme Court on the SYL canal issue to facilitate Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) convener Arvind Kejriwal's "stated goal" to give away state's waters to Haryana and Delhi.

Chandigarh, Sep 9 (IANS) The Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) on Friday slammed Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann for deliberately not fielding any senior lawyer to represent Punjab's case in the Supreme Court on the SYL canal issue to facilitate Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) convener Arvind Kejriwal's "stated goal" to give away state's waters to Haryana and Delhi.
Senior SAD leaders Prem Singh Chandumajra and Daljit Singh Cheema told the media here that it was is for the first time ever since the SYL case is being heard in the apex court that the Punjab government did not field a single senior lawyer for the case.
"Even the state Advocate General was not pressed into service. It is clear that this was done in league with the party's high command in Delhi to achieve a one sided decision against Punjab."
Asking Mann to tell Punjabis why he was taking one anti-Punjab stance after another on the orders of Kejriwal, the SAD leaders said "it is shocking that the Punjab government did not even inform the Supreme Court about Punjab's firm stand that it had an inalienable right over its river waters as per the riparian law and that this issue was not negotiable".
They said instead of doing this, the Punjab government gave its acquiescence to hold talks with its Haryana counterpart "which amounts to a betrayal of the state's stand on this vital issue which concerns the future of its farmers and its economy".
Chandumajra also demanded the Chief Minister call an all-party meeting to disclose AAP's stand on this crucial issue to Punjabis. "Bhagwant Mann's visit to Haryana, his subservience to Kejriwal and campaign along with AAP MP Sushil Gupta who has guaranteed that the SYL water will flow into Haryana has sent a wrong signal to Punjabis that he is getting ready to backstab the state.
"In case the Chief Minister does not spell out his clear stand soon, SAD will organise Punjabis through a Jago Punjab movement to force the government to listen to the sentiments of the people of the state."
Cheema said while the Chief Minister was getting ready for a sellout, AAP legislators should also clear their stand on this vital issue.
He said Punjabis had given an overwhelming majority to AAP and elected 92 legislators to office. "These legislators are answerable to the people and they should not behave like servants of AAP and Bhagwant Mann but should voice the sentiments of Punjabis."

Lollipop in Antarctica! - Welcome to AdventuresofLollipop.com!
Brrrr!! This week's Comic of the Week is "Lollipop in Antarctica!" from my new 10th book "More with Lollipop!". Join Lollipop and the gang as they discover penguins and icebergs and find out what a "sun dog" is! "More with Lollipop!" is available for sale as an e-book from our Lollipop Shop! Happy reading!


Today, April 17, is Ellis Island Family History Day, so I thought that it would be the perfect opportunity to talk about a children's immigration book that I absolutely adore. The book is entitled When Jessie Came Across the Sea. It was written by Amy Hest and illustrated by P.J. Lynch.
Jessie is an orphaned 13-year-old girl living with her grandmother in a small, poor Jewish village, probably somewhere in Eastern Europe. Of all the villagers, the rabbi chooses Jessie to use a passage ticket to America that was sent to him from a family member. Jessie is to go help one of the rabbi's widowed family members in her dress shop in New York City.
The book follows Jessie at every point in her journey, from the sad goodbyes with her grandmother, to the interactions with other immigrants on board, to the questionings at Ellis Island. It touches on Jessie's work in the dress shop, and through letters sent home to grandmother, we are given some insight into some of Jessie's thoughts about living in the big city.
- The positive perception of America to poor Europeans and the value of a passage ticket: Before the rabbi chooses Jessie, many other villagers plead with him for the ticket and talk of America as "the promised land."
- The emotional torment of the ones who stayed behind, in this case the grandmother - knowing that leaving the village was the only way to improve her granddaughter's life, but realizing that it would still break her heart to see her go.
- The poor weather, crowded living conditions, and short tempers on the ship, but also the comradery that developed between passengers.
- The experience of going through Ellis Island: the inspections, questions, and waiting, waiting, waiting.
- The culture shock of going from a small agriculture village to a large industrial city.
- The joys of finding success in America that they never would have found back in their native land.
- The difficulty in learning English.
- Saving enough money to buy a passage ticket for a loved one who is still back in Europe.
- The importance and meaning of family heirlooms, in this case, Jessie's deceased mother's wedding ring.
This book is probably best for ages six and up; the story is longer and more detailed than books for younger children. (I tried to read it to my 3 1/2 year old, but we only made it about 3/4 through until she became bored.) For older children, you could even read the book to them in parts and talk about each of the issues stated above in more detail before moving on to the next event in Jessie's life.

This is a relative question and as such cannot be answered directly without taking a lot of things into consideration. A trader's earnings from the forex market can vary depending on the skills and the leverage used in the trade. Some traders earn as much as double their trade capital, some make about 5 to 10% of their deposits, and a whole lot of others make very little but mostly nothing from the forex market. The last set of traders are the ones that are so sure that the forex market is a scam – because they have tried it and made no money from it, rather they lost what they invested in it.
So much has been said of what traders need to do to increase their earnings in the forex market. In most cases, the same things are said over and over again, but many traders still do not get it. The success rate in the forex market has not increased. More people join the forex market every year and a lot leave, but it still did not change the success rate of the market. What could be the problem?
The single most important reason a lot of traders cannot increase their earning power is because they do not pay attention to tiny details. The forex market is free for anyone who wants to join so long as the person has a computer/phone and internet connection. No one cares about your trading skills while you are registering and depositing money into your forex account to trade with. No one even knows if you are real or a software program designed to trade the market. The point is the market is open to anyone to freely loose or earn from. It is left for the trader to take out time to study the market and develop skills on how to trade the market – which is the most viable way to make good earnings from the forex market.
It has been said that there are traders who did their absolute best but still did not earn anything from the forex market. In cases like this, the traders were probably concentrated on the big things and not paying enough attention to the tiny details. According to renowned forex trader, do not put your focus on the money because is a distraction, your focus should be on how to get a trade right. This goes to say that the psychology of the trader affects the way the trade goes more than we know.

Prudential Retirement closes $1.7 billion in new longevity reinsurance transactions in first half of 2020
U.K. market resilient during COVID pandemic, growing number of smaller pension buy-in, buy-out transactions highlight emerging trend
NEWARK, N.J., July 9, 2020 — Prudential Retirement, a business unit of Prudential Financial, Inc. (NYSE: PRU), has successfully closed $1.7 billion in new longevity reinsurance transactions during the first half of the year, attributing success to pivoting quickly to virtual closings during the COVID-19 global pandemic and a vibrant smaller end of the U.K. pension buy-in and buy-out market.
"While we are now in the midst of incredible uncertainty with the coronavirus, such uncertain times have strengthened our conviction that pension de-risking is an all-weather solution for our institutional client base. "
Rohit Mathur,
Head of International Transactions, Prudential Retirement
"Innovation comes in many forms and this spring, we found ourselves quickly adapting to an entirely virtual environment," said Rohit Mathur, vice president and head of International Transactions for Prudential Retirement. "While we are now in the midst of incredible uncertainty with the coronavirus, such uncertain times have strengthened our conviction that pension de-risking is an all-weather solution for our institutional client base. For those pension schemes that had de-risked their asset portfolio and that were ready to transact before COVID, there was nothing holding them back from moving forward with their deals."
Overall, the U.K. market has remained resilient during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
"Volatile markets often bring opportunity, so it pays to be prepared," Mathur said.
Mathur sees a robust pipeline in the U.K. for the second half of 2020 and the longevity reinsurance market ending the year strong.
"The market is functioning very smoothly, and the smaller end of the market has been quite active," said Tom Cahill, vice president, longevity reinsurance, Prudential Retirement. "We are proud to have reinsured the risk of many individual schemes in the first half of 2020, including one stand-alone mid-sized transaction and well over a dozen smaller schemes through our flow reinsurance offerings. We are especially proud to be supporting a new insurer on our innovative flow reinsurance platform."
For those pension schemes looking to transact, it's important to continue prudent risk management actions with low risk, low volatility investment portfolios, and to set a realistic price target while monitoring funded status and transaction pricing. To learn more about why it makes sense to transact during the pandemic, read Prudential Retirement's thought leadership paper, "Staying the Course Toward a Lower-risk Future Presents Opportunities For Pension Funds During Times of Market Volatility."
Prudential Retirement delivers retirement plan solutions for public, private, and nonprofit organizations. Services include defined contribution, defined benefit and nonqualified deferred compensation record keeping, administrative services, investment management, comprehensive employee education and communications, and trustee services, as well as a variety of products and strategies, including institutional investment and income products, pension risk transfer solutions and structured settlement services.

Prudential Retirement has $465.8 billion in retirement account values as of March 31, 2020. Retirement products and services are provided by The Prudential Insurance Company of America (PICA), Newark, N.J., or its affiliates.

The name Fauves is French for "Wild Beasts"
of pointillism and impressionism. The exuberant 20th-century art movement was led by Henri Matisse. The Fauves emphasized vivid colors, hearty brushstrokes and simplified forms. The subject matter of the Fauve painters is generally lighthearted. They favored seascapes, the French countryside, portraits, nudes, and domestic interiors. The Fauve palette is what set them apart. Fauvists used paint directly from the tube and never mixed their colors. They favored deep reds, oranges, and bright greens. The Fauve colors seemed intense and tasteless, even offensive to art critics of the time. Matisse stated "In art, truth and reality begin when one no longer understands what one is doing or what one knows, and when there remains an energy that is all the stronger for being constrained, controlled and compressed"
This new style of paintings was a reflection of the transformation that was taking place in Europe, the change from the restrictive Victorian age to a more enlightened, tolerant society. Raoul Dufy asserted, "I don't follow any system. All the laws you can lay down are only so many props to be cast aside when the hour of creation arrives."
When the Fauvists held their first exhibit, the daring forms and vivid colors outraged the Paris art world. Critics stormed out and threw glasses of wine at some of the paintings. One critic, Marcel Dupree, was so aghast at the Fauvist paintings he vomited outside the gallery and took to his bed for several weeks.

Q: Capture / redirect all output of ProcessPoolExecutor I am trying to capture all output from a ProcessPoolExecutor.
Imagine you have a file func.py:
print("imported")  # I do not want this print in subprocesses

def f(x):
    return x

then you run that function with a ProcessPoolExecutor like

from concurrent.futures import ProcessPoolExecutor
from func import f  # ⚠ the import will print! ⚠

if __name__ == "__main__":
    with ProcessPoolExecutor() as ex:  # ⚠ the import will happen here again and print! ⚠
        futs = [ex.submit(f, i) for i in range(15)]
        for fut in futs:
            fut.result()

Now I can capture the output of the first import using e.g., contextlib.redirect_stdout, however, I want to capture all output from the subprocesses too and redirect them to the stdout of the main process.
In my real use case, I get warnings that I want to capture, but a simple print reproduces the problem.
This is relevant to prevent the following bug https://github.com/Textualize/rich/issues/2371.

INDIANAPOLIS — Jack Doyle isn't going to play football for the Indianapolis Colts again this season, but he's got his health — and that's what's important.
The Indianapolis Colts tight end, who was hospitalized after Sunday's Week 12 victory over the Miami Dolphins after suffering a serious kidney injury, has since been released from the hospital, head coach Frank Reich told reporters on Wednesday, and that his long-term prognosis is positive.
"He did get released, and is doing well," Reich said of Doyle. "(I've) been in contact with him, and I'm encouraged by the results of the procedure and wishing him the best."
Doyle was taken to the hospital after the game, where he underwent a procedure, according to Reich. He has since been placed on injured reserve, ending his season.
After earning his first Pro Bowl selection last season, Doyle, who missed five games earlier in the year with a hip injury, finishes his sixth NFL season in 2018 having caught 26 passes for 245 yards and two touchdowns in six games played, all starts.
Reich at first said Wednesday he was wishing Doyle a "quick, speedy recovery," but then corrected himself. While the tight end's prognosis is good — "all signs point would point to he'd be fine for next year," Reich said Monday night in his weekly appearance on "Colts Roundtable Live" on 1070 The Fan — his focus now is more in the short-term as far as rest and recovery.
"It's not the kind of thing that is a speedy recovery, hence IR," Reich said. "But he's doing very well."
And, whenever Doyle is ready, Reich said he hopes he'll see him around the building often to continue his role as a leader in the tight ends room.
"Jack is the consummate pro. A big-time leader on this team," Reich said earlier this week. "I'm already thinking even with this injury, I just want him around. I mean, he's a guy you just want him around. Just please be around our team. Because it makes us better."
