A fasinating look at clocks and how to keep time
"Clocks," one of the volumes in the Great Inventions series, is not just about clocks but about keeping time going back to a piece of bone 30,000 years old, found in France, that bears scratch marks that are believed to have indicated the cycles of the moon. In this very informative volume James Lincoln Collier looks at how human beings have attempted to measure time through not only clocks but also calendars. The first chapter provides a lesson in how astronomy, the study of celestial bodies, established the relationship between the regular cycles of the planets, stars, Sun, Moon, and Earth and the measurement of time. The next chatper is devoted to the start of timekeeping in the Middle East and the early methods used by the Romans, Chinese, and Mayans. Collier then focuses on the great "escapement," a term that refers to the device in a mechanical movement that controls the rotation of the wheels and therefore the motion of the hands on a clock. It was the...

The Clock is a bad thing!
The book The Clock by James Lincoln Collier was an excellent book, although there were some not so great parts with good detail. There was a lot of talking and traveling about the late 1800s to the early 1900s that became boring and uninteresting, however Mr. Collier still did a good job with the details. The book took place in Connecticut on a farm. The main character is a girl who is forced to work in the mill because her father buys a lot of junk that puts her family in debt. Her brother is already working in the wood shop and her friend Rob is working in the mill. The mill headmaster is believed to be stealing wool and harassing the men and women working there. The ending will really surprise you if like historical fiction. The girl's friend, Robert, dies while deicing the water wheel, and the girl gets in a lot of trouble because no one is listening to her and her father wants her to stay in the mill.

Superb Car Stereo
I purchased this stereo because I wanted a car stereo with Bluetooth, a little extra power, better sound quality, and flash drive support. I'm happy to say that this stereo performs all these functions well. Installing the stereo is just like installing any other stereo, except for installing the microphone. The best spot for the microphone is probably the A pillar (at the top). It sounds complicated, but the microphone took about 15 min. to install. I ran the cable down through the rubber seal on the side of the door, but how you mount the microphone depends on your car. The Bluetooth works very well. What I start up the car, the radio automatically connects to my phone. Music through Bluetooth sounds pretty good, although it can be a little fizzy. Call quality is great; everyone can hear me well (they can even hear the person in the passenger seat), and everything sounds right. If you are on the phone as your car is starting up, it will automatically...

Budget price, premium options
A stereo has died in my 10 year old car and I've started looking for replacement. This unit fit the bill perfectly. Although, I never heard about Dual brand, little i-net search revealed that it is quite sound; not a no-name Chinese garage built. This unit is very feature rich and, as far as I can tell, so far all of them work. Can't comment on iPod interface, as I use any/everything but iCrap. Bluetooth works like a charm - picks up my phone when I start the car and stay connected. I placed a microphone behind the steering wheel. People can hear me well (better than a headset I used before, and I can hear them perfectly through the speakers. Bluetooth music streaming (from the phone) works decently as well. USB port (a #1 selling point for me) works very fast and well. Disks play good. I'd say that the interface could be a bit more streamlined, but for the price, it's too much to ask. Display is a bit smaller than on most of modern units,...

Wonderful radio for a great price - installed in a Smart 451 ForTwo
I purchased this Dual receiver because I wanted my phone to connect via bluetooth. Previously, I was using the aux/line in connector to connect my phone up to play audio and receive calls. The problem with this is that if you decided to switch the recevier over to CD or radio, any calls you receive on the phone go to... nowhere. With the bluetooth functionality, any incoming call mutes the other audio and plays the call over the speaker. I have tested this part of it, and it works well. One caveat: the included microphone has a clip that doesn't seem to clip to anything. I tried it all over the car: rearview mirror, air vents, plastic trim, nothing. I did finally get it to clip onto one of the air vents, but every time I touch it, it pops off. I will end up using a piece of double sided tape or velcro to fix this. I also tried it in my wife's car, a Ford Escape, with similar issues. Maybe they expect you to clip it onto your shirt as you drive...

FAREWELL SPIT, NEW ZEALAND (BNO NEWS) -- At least 48 pilot whales have died after a group of nearly 100 whales stranded on the coast of New Zealand on late Monday morning, officials said on Wednesday. Around 200 volunteers and DoC workers have been working around the clock to keep the whales wet, covering them with wet sheets to protect them from the sun, and push the survivors back into the sea. Department of Conservation (DoC) Golden Bay Area manager John Mason said the pod of 99 pilot whales stranded themselves at around 11 a. m. local time on Monday during outgoing tide at the base of Farewell Spit in Golden Bay, located on the... Earlier this month, 18 whales died after a pod of 25 whales beached about 2 kilometers (1. As of Wednesday morning, Mason said 35 of the whales remain stranded while a total of 48 others have died. Pilot whales work as a close-knit community and need to be in agreement with one another to make a move, making it more difficult for the rescue workers to save them.
WASHINGTON, D. C. (BNO NEWS) -- The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists (BAS) on Tuesday announced it has moved its symbolic 'Doomsday Clock' a minute forward, bringing it five minutes to midnight as a result of 'inadequate progress' on nuclear... The last time was in January 2010 when the clock's minute hand was pushed back one minute from five to six minutes before midnight. "The provisional developments of 2 years ago have not been sustained, and it makes sense to move the clock closer to midnight, back to the value it had in 2007," said Lawrence Krauss, co-chair of the BAS Board of Sponsors. "For that reason, the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists is moving the clock hand one minute closer to midnight, back to its time in 2007. It is the first time since early 2010 that BAS has decided to move the Doomsday Clock, which aims to represent how close humanity is to catastrophic destruction, according to the organization. The Doomsday Clock was launched in 1947 at seven minutes to midnight.
Hit a pair of free throws with three seconds left on the clock in overtime to lift the Lincoln women’s basketball team to a 76-75 win over Fort Hays State on Saturday (Jan. With 1:55 remaining, Dillard gave Lincoln the advantage on a layup off an assist by grabbed the rebound, beginning the chain of events that led to the Lincoln win. Dillard’s free throws capped off a frenetic series of plays as the clock ticked down in overtime with FHSU clinging to a one-point lead. Lincoln had to rally just to send the game into overtime, as Fort Hays State broke a 53-53 tie in the second half by scoring seven unanswered points. Lincoln did not let Fort Hays State get a shot off in the remaining seconds of the second period. Fort Hays State had one last chance, but a desperate heave for three points was no good, and Lincoln opened the second half of its league season with a win. Five Blue Tigers scored in double digits in the victory, the first over Fort Hays State in four meetings for Lincoln. Dillard finished 10 points, five boards, an assist, a block and a steal while Booker blocked three shots and pulled down a team-high 10 rebounds while scoring six points. Lincoln maintained the lead for the first half of second stanza, but FHSU tied the game at 53 with 9:41 to play. The game was the first overtime contest for Lincoln in nearly a year, as the Blue Tigers had last played extra minutes on Jan.
) So, according to the "Stone Age" law, employers are faced with two unattractive alternatives: (1) keep employees happy by letting them do their thing as long as the work gets done, but risk liability for off-clock work. *Tell your non-exempt employee that you do not expect him to work outside his normal hours even if you leave voice mail messages or send emails to him outside his normal hours. A lot of non-exempt employees do not realize this -- they think of themselves as professionals, just as you do. *If you can't afford to pay overtime, let your non-exempt employee "make up" the. or (2) obey the law by requiring employees to stick to their required shifts and take all required breaks on schedule, no ifs, ands, or buts, which will make the employees very unhappy, not to mention insulted because they identify with the Buck... *Make sure your non-exempt employee knows to include on her time records any "extra" hours she put in. You will never be able to avoid some work outside normal hours. This will not resolve all of your "off-clock" problems but will at least make it likelier that she will be able to put in a full day's work without wreaking havoc in her personal life. ) Not to mention that we now have these devices called "cell phones" and "home computers," which greatly heighten the risk that some "off-clock work" will be performed on any given day. If you're like me, you think of all kinds of crazy things at 3 a. m. and want to send an email or leave a message right away and that there is no expectation that they act on your crazy-hour messages, or even read or listen to them, until their...
And that was it for scoring as the Splitters ran out over a minute on the clock before missing a three-pointer a few seconds before the buzzer. Too much Ajay Stovall. And not enough offense. The Lincoln boys' basketball team made it three straight
left on the clock as the Bulldogs knocked off the Maples 53-51. “This was a big win,” Chelsea coach Robin Raymond said. “We have been playing a lot better but didn't have anything to show for it (after losing close games to Dexter and Lincoln).
