I feel like there should also be some sort of multiplier for being on a college campus, ha!
I think any multiplier for frequency on a college campus is cancelled out by the decrease in average duration.
I'm a girl, and 30 minutes sounds about right to me.
30 is only an example hence the eg.
30 minutes is indeed too short if you include the time for quality foreplay. And factoring in time for adequate foreplay is a woman thing.

What is a rotating union?
A rotating union is a mechanism which typically functions by connecting a stationary supply passage and a rotating roll while preserving and isolating the fluid being transferred (through static and dynamic sealing applications) in and/out of the rotating part in the process. Liquid or gas medium transfer is combined with axial rotation use (oscillating, positioning or high-speed continuous rotation) in many industrial applications.
Standard rotating unions may be delivered within two or three days. Custom-made rotating unions approximately require eight weeks to be designed, approved, assembled, tested and delivered.
Where are the rotating unions manufactured?
We produce our rotating unions in Hondschoote, North of France. PACQUET PRODUCTION MECANIQUE, our sister company, machines the main components (shafts and housings). These parts are then delivered to PACQUET RACCORD TOURNANT, located 2.5 miles away, in Killem. Everything is crafted in the area from design to assembly.
May I visit the production site?
Should you wish to take a tour of the premises, please make an appointment prior to your visit. Our team would be delighted to welcome you and tell you more about our know-how. You would also get a better insight of the whole manufacturing process, from raw material to finished product.
Where can I find the assembly instructions of the rotating unions you offer?
We have chosen to issue the assembly instruction sheet of our TP1100. You can download it from this page: Our products / TP1100.

Bernie Mac, 50, dies of pneumonia
FRAZIER MOOREASSOCIATED PRESS
Bernie Mac blended style, authority and a touch of self-aware bluster to make audiences laugh as well as connect with him.
For Mac, who died today at age 50, it was a winning mix, delivering him from a poor childhood to stardom as a standup comedian, in films including the casino heist caper "Ocean's Eleven" and his acclaimed sitcom "The Bernie Mac Show."
Though his comedy drew on tough experiences as a black man, he had mainstream appeal — befitting inspiration he found in a wide range of humorists: Harpo Marx as well as Moms Mabley; squeaky-clean Red Skelton, but also the raw Redd Foxx.
Mac died this morning of complications from pneumonia in a Chicago-area hospital, his publicist, Danica Smith, said in a statement from Los Angeles.
"The world just got a little less funny," said "Oceans" co-star George Clooney.
Don Cheadle, another member of the "Oceans" gang, concurred: "This is a very sad day for many of us who knew and loved Bernie. He brought so much joy to so many. He will be missed, but heaven just got funnier."
Mac suffered from sarcoidosis, an inflammatory lung disease that produces tiny lumps of cells in the body's organs, but had said the condition went into remission in 2005. He recently was hospitalized and treated for pneumonia, which his publicist said was not related to the disease.
Recently, Mac's brand of comedy caught him flack when he was heckled during a surprise appearance at a July fundraiser for Democratic presidential candidate and fellow Chicagoan Barack Obama.
Toward the end of a 10-minute standup routine, Mac joked about menopause, sexual infidelity and promiscuity, and used occasional crude language.
Obama took the stage about 15 minutes later, implored Mac to "clean up your act next time," then let him off the hook, adding: "By the way, I'm just messing with you, man."
Even so, Obama's campaign later issued a rebuke, saying the senator "doesn't condone these statements and believes what was said was inappropriate."
But despite controversy or difficulties, in his words, Mac was always a performer.
"Wherever I am, I have to play," he said in 2002. "I have to put on a good show."
Mac worked his way to Hollywood success from an impoverished upbringing on Chicago's South Side. He began doing standup as a child, telling jokes for spare change on subways, and his film career started with a small role as a club doorman in the Damon Wayans comedy "Mo' Money" in 1992.
In 1996, he appeared in the Spike Lee drama "Get on the Bus." He was one of "The Original Kings of Comedy" in the 2000 documentary of that title that brought a new generation of black standup comedy stars to a wider audience.
"The majority of his core fan base will remember that when they paid their money to see Bernie Mac … he gave them their money's worth," Steve Harvey, one of his co-stars in "Original Kings," told CNN on Saturday.
Mac went on to star in the hugely popular "Ocean's Eleven" franchise with Brad Pitt and George Clooney, playing a gaming-table dealer who was in on the heist.
Carl Reiner, who also appeared in the "Ocean's" films, said Saturday he was "in utter shock" because he thought Mac's health was improving.
"He was just so alive," Reiner said. "I can't believe he's gone."
Mac and Ashton Kutcher topped the box office in 2005's "Guess Who," a comedy remake of the classic Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn drama "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?" Mac played the dad who's shocked that his daughter is marrying a white man.
Mac also had starring roles in "Bad Santa," "Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle" and "Transformers."
But his career and comic identity were forged in television. In the late 1990s, he had a recurring role in "Moesha," the UPN network comedy starring pop star Brandy. The critical and popular acclaim came after he landed his own Fox television series "The Bernie Mac Show," about a child-averse couple who suddenly are saddled with three children.
Mac mined laughs from the universal frustrations of parenting, often breaking the "fourth wall" to address the camera throughout the series that aired from 2001 to 2006.
"C'mon, America," implored Mac, in character as the put-upon dad. "When I say I wanna kill those kids, YOU know what I mean."
The series won a Peabody Award in 2002, and Mac was nominated for a Golden Globe and an Emmy.
In real life, he was "the king of his household" — very much like his character on that series, his daughter, Je'niece Childress, told The Associated Press on Saturday.
"But television handcuffs you, man," he said in a 2001 Associated Press interview before the show had premiered. "Now everyone telling me what I CAN'T do, what I CAN say, what I SHOULD do, and asking, 'Are blacks gonna be mad at you? Are whites gonna accept you?' "
He also was nominated for a Grammy award for best comedy album in 2001 along with his "The Original Kings of Comedy" co-stars Harvey, D.L. Hughley and Cedric The Entertainer.
Chicago music producer Carolyn Albritton said she was Bernie Mac's first manager, having met him in 1991 at Chicago's Cotton Club where she hosted an open-mike night. He was an immediate hit, Albritton said Saturday, and he asked her to help guide his career.
"From very early on I thought he was destined for success," Albritton said. "He never lost track of where he came from, and he'd often use real life experiences, his family, his friends, in his routine. After he made it, he stayed a very humble man. His family was the most important thing in the world to him."
In 2007, Mac told David Letterman on CBS' "Late Show" that he planned to retire soon.
"I'm going to still do my producing, my films, but I want to enjoy my life a little bit," Mac told Letterman. "I missed a lot of things, you know. I was a street performer for two years. I went into clubs in 1977."
Mac was born Bernard Jeffrey McCullough on Oct. 5, 1957, in Chicago. He grew up on the South Side, living with his mother and grandparents. His grandfather was the deacon of a Baptist church. In his 2004 memoir, "Maybe You Never Cry Again," Mac wrote about having a poor childhood — eating bologna for dinner — and a strict, no-nonsense upbringing.
"I came from a place where there wasn't a lot of joy," Mac told the AP in 2001. "I decided to try to make other people laugh when there wasn't a lot of things to laugh about."
Mac's mother died of cancer when he was 16. In his book, Mac said she was a support for him and told him he would surprise everyone when he grew up.
"Woman believed in me," he wrote. "She believed in me long before I believed."
Mac's death Saturday coincided with the annual Bud Billiken Parade in Chicago, a major event in the predominantly black South Side that the comedian had previously attended.
"It's truly the passing of one of our favorite sons," said Paula Robinson, president of the Black Metropolis National Heritage Area. "He was extremely innovative in putting his life experiences in comedic form and doing it without vulgarity. He was an ambassador of Chicago's black community, and the national black community at large."
A public memorial is planned for noon Aug. 16 at The House of Hope church in Chicago, said Smith, Mac's publicist.

Everywhere you turn it seems like a pundit in the marketing industry is exhorting the marketing masses to start creating content, and rightfully so. Content is changing the game for marketers everywhere.
So where do you get started? The inevitable first suggestion that follows that question is the creation of a company blog. Heck, we've written about it a number of times in the past year. Your blog is a tremendous asset for building up your stock of content, generating buzz around your company, and developing relationships with prospects. But what very few people discuss is how to drive leads from your blog.
If you have a steady flow of traffic to your blog and you aren't including well-defined calls to action (CTA) in your posts, you are missing a serious opportunity to drive conversions and marketing results.
So how do you craft the perfect CTA for your blog post? I'm so glad you asked!
Subject: What is the topic of your blog post? Your CTA should be for a resource on a similar subject.
Stage of Sales Cycle: Is your post targeted toward the top of your funnel or is it more for serious opportunities?
Persona: What is your target persona for this post? What are the main concerns and issues for that persona?
Format: Is you post more visual or editorial? If your audience found the post appealing, they will want to view more content with a similar format.
The third step is to pair your CTAs with the appropriate situation. At first it will take some time to match each situation with the ideal content, but this will get easier as you build up your resource library and your understanding of what content works where. You will not always have a perfect match for every situation, but testing your CTAs can give you a far better understanding of their performance.
You can't improve what you don't measure, and that is especially true of your blog CTAs. With so many variables at play, measuring performance is an essential part of creating effective CTAs. Marketing automation platforms will automatically track views to any content you upload or landing page you create. However, simply placing a custom tracking link (think bit.ly) is enough to measure your CTA performance.

Photoreductive Mechanism of CCl_4 Degradation on TiO_2 Particles and Effects of Electron Donors
Choi, Wonyong and Hoffmann, Michael R. (1995) Photoreductive Mechanism of CCl_4 Degradation on TiO_2 Particles and Effects of Electron Donors. Environmental Science and Technology, 29 (6). pp. 1646-1654. ISSN 0013-936X. https://resolver.caltech.edu/CaltechAUTHORS:20150810-083411600
The photoreductive degradation of CCl_4 in TiO_2 particulate suspensions in the presence of a variety of organic electron donors (alcohols, carboxylic acids, and benzene derivatives) has been examined. The rate of CCl_4 dechlorination can be enhanced significantly when alcohols and organic acids are used as electron donors. Alcohols with α-hydrogens show complex behavior due to the formation of intermediate α-hydroxyalkyl radicals, which directly reduce CCl_4. Kinetic isotope effects and structurere-activity relationships show that hydrogen-abstraction by hydroxyl radicals plays an important role in the hole-scavenging mechanism. The pH of the TiO_2 suspension influences the rate of CCl_4 reduction either by altering the electrostatic interactions of electron donors on the TiO_2 surface or by changing the reduction potential of the conduction band electron in a Nernstian fashion. It is demonstrated that CCl_4 can be fully degraded under both oxic and anoxic conditions. CHCl_3, C_2Cl_4, and C_2Cl_6 are detected as intermediates during photolysis at pH 2.8 while no intermediates are formed at pH 12.4. A photodegradation mechanism of CCl_4 that includes both one-electron and two-electron transfer processes is proposed. Dichlorocarbene, which is formed through a two-electron reduction of CCl_4, is directly trapped during the photolysis.

Salmonella outbreak linked to frozen raw breaded chicken products and frozen chicken
Christina Manocchio
Food In Canada
Meat &Poultry
The Salmonella outbreak has been linked to frozen raw breaded chicken products, and a new food recall warning has been made with relation to illnesses reported in the outbreak investigation.
The Public Health Agency of Canada is collaborating with provincial and territorial public health partners, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) and Health Canada to investigate outbreaks of Salmonella infections across Canada linked to raw chicken, including frozen raw breaded chicken products.
On Sept. 13, 2018, Canada's Council of Chief Medical Officers of Health issued a statement advising Canadians to follow proper food safety practices when handling, preparing or consuming frozen raw breaded chicken products such as chicken nuggets, chicken strips, chicken burgers, popcorn chicken and chicken fries.
Salmonella illnesses linked to frozen raw breaded chicken products continue to be reported to the Public Health Agency of Canada.
CFIA has implemented new industry measures for controlling the risk of Salmonella in frozen raw breaded chicken products. These new measures were prompted by the continued link between frozen raw breaded chicken products and outbreaks of food-related illnesses. The measures took effect on April 1, 2019; however, it is possible that products produced prior to this date could still be in the marketplace or in people's freezers for up to a year beyond April 1.
As of May 25, 2019, there have been 584 laboratory-confirmed cases of Salmonella illness investigated as part of the illness outbreaks across the country: British Columbia (44), Alberta (85), Saskatchewan (18), Manitoba (29), Ontario (215), Quebec (119), New Brunswick (31), Nova Scotia (19), Prince Edward Island (7), Newfoundland and Labrador (12), Northwest Territories (2), Yukon (1), and Nunavut (2). There have been 97 individuals hospitalized as part of these outbreaks.
Three individuals have died; however, Salmonella was not the cause of death for two of those individuals, and it was not determined whether Salmonella contributed to the cause of death for the third individual. Infections have occurred in Canadians of all ages and genders.
As of May 25, 2019, there is one active national Salmonella outbreak investigation linked to raw chicken including frozen raw breaded chicken products, coordinated by the Public Health Agency of Canada.
New – Salmonella Enteritidis
Currently, there are 11 cases of illness in seven provinces linked to this outbreak: British Columbia (2), Alberta (1), Ontario (2), Quebec (3), New Brunswick (1), Nova Scotia (1), and Prince Edward Island (1). Individuals became sick between September 2018 and April 2019. One individual has been hospitalized. No deaths have been reported. Frozen raw breaded chicken products have been identified as a source of this outbreak.

The Internet is facing a frankly ridiculous threat to its fundamental inner workings in the form of the Stop Online Piracy Act and the PROTECT IP act, and many Internet sites shut down yesterday in protest. If these acts pass, blogs like this one could be shut down simply because a single comment left by a user links to something a corporation thinks it owns.
While the strike day is over, these bills are still a threat to the Internet. I know it's a nerdy issue, but please visit https://www.google.com/landing/takeaction/ and read about it.


We stayed two nights in the delightful Il Giardino degli Etruschi (Garden of the Etruscans), a Bed & Breakfast just outside Chiusi. There are five bedrooms, each with it's own bathroom and unique sense of style. Geothermal heat keeps the rooms cool during the summer and there is a pool for lazing by. The breakfast was delicious! Homemade sweet things and jam, breads (both sweet and plain), cured meats, cheeses, fruit, yogurt, coffee, juice, and tea. Carolina and Paolo are wonderful hosts — stay here if you're in the area.

Rain in Italy was very different from how it is at home. In Seattle the rain mostly comes as a steady drizzle or shower. The 'hard' rain is just a very steady downpour with a very occasional thunderstorm. It's pretty mild generally speaking. Italian rain is RAIN. Big, loud, and completely soaking in a matter of minutes. Why am I writing about it like that? Because it rained on our last day in Rome. So hard that the streets flooded after about an hour and we ended up walking in water up to my calf.

Continuing our new habit, we slept until after 10am then leisurely prepared for a day out. Lunch was at Il Brillo Parlante, another restaurant specializing in traditional Roman favorites. For me that meant all the fried food: suppli (a rice ball with mozzarella cheese in breadcrumbs), arancino Siciliano (a Sicilian version of suppli), and Filetti di Baccala (fried cod); J. had the Stringozzo (fresh pasta with meat ragu).
I didn't take a picture, but here's one from the internet.

We'd had a problem with our debit card the day before, but neither of us paid attention . . . BAD IDEA. You see, taxis in Rome don't take credit cards. The metro is pretty cheap, but still requires moolah to make it work, and we didn't have enough to make it to our meeting point for today's tour. Bank after bank machine turned us down and we were running out of time. . . . and then we missed the tour by 5 minutes.

Boling Consulting provides both standard classes and custom classes. The standard classes provide instruction in Windows CE / Windows Compact 7 Application Development, OAL Development, and Debugging. Most customers wish to customize their classes to better fit their unique requirements. There is no additional charge for customized classes.
Pick and choose class modules and Boling Consulting will create a custom class with those modules. Click here for a list of modules.
Windows CE / Windows Compact 7 Debugging is a class for the experienced Windows Embedded developer that wants to learn advanced debugging techniques. This class covers the some of the common problems that occur during development, how to leverage the power and complexity of the debugging tools, and how to make custom tools when the provided tools won't do the job.
Programming Windows CE is for the embedded programmer who has little if any Win32 experience or has programmed Windows using MFC or another class library. Students will learn Windows programming from the Windows CE perspective. The class starts with an introduction to Windows application architecture followed by a tour of the basic Windows API with a discussion of how these functions apply to the embedded environment. The class then progresses to cover areas specific to Windows CE including the internal operating system architecture.
This course is for the Win32 programmer who needs to learn the differences in programming Windows CE. The class covers the differences in the operating system architecture. It continues with coverage on the subtle differences in the Win32 API implemented by Windows CE as well as coverage of specialized parts of the operating system that expose functions unique to Window CE. The class covers the same Windows CE content as Programming Windows CE, but assumes that the student is familiar with the Win32 API.
OAL (OEM Abstraction Layer) and Driver Programming teaches how to port Windows CE to a new hardware platform. This task-based course teaches the architecture of Windows CE followed by a series of lectures that bring the student from writing a boot loader program to bringing up the kernel and writing the device drivers. The final day covers a variety of topics of interest to developers such as optimizing video drivers, writing file system drivers, writing a Windows CE shell and profiling a Windows CE system.
Windows CE Applications and Drivers is a class for the experienced Win32 developer that wants to learn Windows CE application development and a touch of device driver development. This class covers the differences in the Windows CE kernel and how that affects application development. The class also provides a cursory knowledge of device driver development and how drivers can be developed using the application development tools instead of using the Platform Builder.

Q: How do prevent multiple submits in a web part I have a visual web part that has an update panel that has a button that performs an action.  I want to prevent users from hitting that button more than once.
The solutions I found use javascript to disable the button then do the postback.
The problem with this that I am having is that my buttonclick method is getting called 2 times since it seems to go to Page_Load 2 times.
Here is my code.  First the button and javascript then the Page_Load method.
 <script type="text/javascript">
    function DisableButton() {
        document.getElementById('<%= BetOnCar.ClientID %>').disabled = "disabled";
        __doPostBack('<%= BetOnCar.ClientID %>', '');

    }
</script>

<asp:Button ID="BetOnCar" runat="server" Text="Bet" OnClientClick="DisableButton();" onclick="BetOnCar_Click" Enabled="false" />

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        string controlName = this.Page.Request["__EVENTTARGET"];
        if (BetOnCar.ClientID == this.Page.Request["__EVENTTARGET"])
        {
            BetOnCar_Click(sender, e);
        }
    }

I'm hoping that I am doing this type of thing in the wrong location because it seems like page_load gets hit more often than I expected.

A: I think you have add return false; in the javascript function DisableButton() OR use Jquery event.preventDefault() .
As the default button click is also firing

A: You'll get two post backs since you're adding a __doPostBack() in your DisableButton() function. Try to remove that one.


> around the waitpid calls that are causing the problem.
that seems to have fixed the problem.  thanks.
# around the waitpid calls that are causing the problem.
#  ECHILD  if the process specified in pid does not exist or is not a child of the calling process.


Your brakes are arguably the most important piece of equipment on your car. There are two types of brake systems used throughout the world: disc brakes and drum brakes. Most cars employ a combination of the two systems, using disc brakes on the front wheels and drum brakes on the rear.
Drum brakes work by applying pressure to the brake drum. Disc brakes, on the other hand, essentially squeeze the rotating wheel disc causing the car to slow. Most experts agree that disc brake systems are more reliable and less prone to failure than drum brakes.
Antilock braking systems apply even pressure on the rotating wheel, preventing it from locking. Brake systems have been known to fail, due to both poor maintenance and defective design.
If you have been injured in an accident caused by a brake failure, it may be important to contact an attorney to help you protect your legal rights. Please keep in mind that there may be time limits within which you must commence suit.


A trade rumour and playing in his hometown of Philadelphia may have been the perfect medicine for Kyle Lowry.
After sitting out one game for precautionary reasons surrounding his back, Lowry returned to the lineup to lead the Toronto Raptors to an impressive 119-107 road victory over the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday night.
Reports over Lowry's back issues had him listed as doubtful to play in the affair, but he looked perfectly fine – exploding for 17 points in the first 24 minutes of action.
Lowry played in his typical 'bulldog' fashion, continually driving the lane while seeking out body-contact, and helping his team take a 72-55 lead at halftime.
Toronto never looked back in the second half, coming up big defensively down the stretch and handing the 76ers only their sixth home court loss of the season.
Lowry finished the game with 20 points, hitting 5/9 shots from three, while adding six assists and two steals.
Lowry's big performance also comes amidst his name being the subject of trade rumours with the NBA trade deadline approaching on February 7. Following the game, however, the Raptors point guard reiterated his commitment to winning with the Raptors.
With the big win, Toronto improves to 39-16 on the season – good for second in the Eastern Conference. The victory also gave Raptors fans a glimpse into what this team can accomplished when its stars are at their best. Along with Lowry's stellar play, Kawhi Leonard led all Raptors with 24 points and Serge Ibaka added 20 points and 10 rebounds.
The Raptors will continue their current road trip on Thursday when they play the Atlanta Hawks.

33 Ghanaians have died from Coronavirus in New York – US Ambassador to Ghana
Ghana's Ambassador to USA, Baffour Adjei Bawuah
Ghana's Ambassador to the United States of America, Baffour Adjei Bawuah has revealed that 33 Ghanaians have died from the fast-spreading Coronavirus.
In an interview with Accra-based GHOne, Mr Adjei Bawuah noted that the deaths were recorded in the New York state alone as the figures of infection continue to rise in the country.
"Quite a number of Ghanaians have been affected and indeed we have 33 people who have been verified to have died from the disease in New York alone," he stated.
He intimated that several other Ghanaians, who have been stranded in the wake of the COVID-19, numbering about 300 have also contacted the embassy in order to be repatriated to their home country.
Key among such persons are government officials who travelled to the US on assignment before President Akufo-Addo ordered for the indefinite closure of Ghana's borders.
"At the moment, about 300 people [Ghanaians] have expressed a situation where they believe that they are stranded and therefore want to come back home and…we are liaising with the US government particularly in connection with some [Ghanaian] students and some officials who came here and are stranded."
"The students, in particular, are now living with host families and that has put a bit of pressure on these families but we are reasonably certain that by the end of this week, we would have been able to relay to the US government enough [information] for those people to be brought home," Mr Adjei Bawuah added.
Meanwhile, some over 200 Ghanaians who were deported from Kuwait arrived in Accra on Friday after the Kuwaiti government funded their transportation according to reports.
They were taken through arrival procedures by officials of the Ghana Immigration Service and screened by health personnel. Officials say they would undergo a 14-day mandatory quarantine at designated hotels under heavy security.
Information Minister Kojo Oppong Nkrumah revealed news of their coming at a brief press conference in Accra, Friday.
He noted that the government of Kuwait made the request which the Ghanaian government accepted.
"The government was satisfied with the diplomatic corporation by the government of Kuwait, " he said.
Ghana's Coronavirus cases have risen to 6964 with 2097 recoveries.

Cathy's Card Spot: Gelatos and a tree frame.
Hi everyone, I've been playing with gelatos again! I love how soft the colours are, although I keep reaching for the same blues and yellow! They smoosh so easily when you scribble them on a craft mat and spritz with water. Sometimes there are small lumps that need blending with a palette knife or other tool to get them mooshy lol!
at Poppystamps it's a birthday theme.
I've used the Poppystamps Feather Tree Frame.
The die is wider than the usual cardstock I buy in Australia, but I managed to get some larger cardstock and once I trim it, it's perfect!
Here's a closer look at the shimmer from the blueberry ice gelato.
At Stamplorations CAS challenge, Shery and the team are on Summer vacation, but you can still link up your CAS makes.
and I'm also linking to the anything goes with dies challenge at Happy Little Stampers.
