The tangential velocity is the velocity measured at any point tangent to a turning wheel. Thus tangential velocity, vt is related to the angular velocity of the wheel, ω, and the radius of the wheel, r.
1) If the angular velocity of a turning bicycle wheel is 42 rad/s, and the wheel diameter is 68 cm, what is the tangential velocity?
Answer: The radius, r = 1/2 diameter of 68 cm = 34 cm = 0.34 m. The angular velocity, ω = 42 rad/s. Use the equation for tangential velocity.
2) If a wheel is turning at 12 m/sec, and its angular velocity is 6 radians/sec, what is the radius of the wheel?
Answer: The tangential velocity, Vt = 12 m/sec. The angular velocity, ω, is 6 radians/sec. Use the formula for tangential velocity to find the radius, r.

Charles Kingscote Knuckey's father was John Randall Knuckey, Telegraph Line Surveyor. He died when Charles was only 18 months old. Charles' mother struggled to support the family, mainly by taking in boarders. The family moved house several times in Charles' youth but he has particularly vivid memories of living on bustling West Terrace. Charles left the Currie Street School as soon as he turned 14. During the next six years he had a variety of clerical and labouring jobs, then in 1908 began his career as a commercial traveller. By the time he enlisted in 1914 he had been the country traveller for the SA Paper Bag & Co for two years. Charles served with the Australian Medical Corps in Egypt, Gallipoli, England and France. On his return Mr Knuckey continued to travel. In 1921 he also went into business, first as Crase, Knuckey & Co Ltd, wholesale hardware merchants, and then in 1926 as Knuckey Rubber Co, tyre seller and repairer.

Amusing song recorded at Basing Street Studios 29 March 1979 and mixed 9 June 1979.
One can wonder why this track did not make it to the album because the lyric is relevant in a divorce process. My guess it was too uptempo and jolly in comparison with the rest. The nonsense parts suggest John had recently had a toothache of some kind.
It is often referred to as a first version of Cooltide but this is not the case. The only thing that John did in Cooltide was recycling a phrase he liked. Both the subject and the atmosphere are totally different.

A can do a work in 9 days, B can do a work in 7 days, C can do a work in 5 days. A works on the first day, B works on the second day and C on the third day respectively that is they work on alternate days. When will they finish the work ?
Answer : 3 [6 (261/315)] days Explanation : Answer: C) [6 (261/315)] days Explanation: After day 1, A finishes 1/9 of the work.After day 2, B finishes 1/7 more of the total work. (1/9) (1/7) is finished.After day 3, C finishes 1/5 more of total work. Total finished is 143/315.So, after day 6, total work finished is 286/315. Now remaining work = 29 /315 On day 7, A will work again Work will be completed on day 7 when A is working. He must finish 29/315 of total remaining work. Since he takes 9 days to finish the total task, he will need 261/315 of the day. Total days required is 6 (261/315) days.

Jonathon, Henry and Jane want to find out how much change they have in their pockets. Lets find out who has most with the clues.
Clues: 1. Jane has $0.50 more than Henry.
Clue 1 Jane has $0.50 more than Henry. First add up all the coins in each column. Column 1 = $0.85, column 2 =$0.75, column 3 =$0.25. Since Jane has $0.50 more than Henry The equation would be: Jane = $0.50 + Henry Lets replace Jane with $0.85, and see if it possible for Jane to have $0.85. $0.85 = $0.50 + Henry Henry = $0.35 Is that possible? None of them have $0.35 so that means its impossible for Jane to have $0.85. Lets replace Jane with $0.75. $0.75 = $0.50 + Henry Henry = $0.25 Yes! one of them does have $0.25 change. So that means Jane has $0.75, and Henry has $0.25. So Jonathan must be the one with $0.85.

Commercial and multifamily mortgage lending has been at or near record levels the last two years. Part of that strength comes from strong appetites from traditional lenders like banks, life companies, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, FHA and the commercial mortgage-backed securities market. Another source is the growth of other lenders.
MBA’s preliminary estimates suggest approximately $67 billion in commercial and multifamily mortgages were intermediated for debt funds, mortgage REITs and other investor-driven lenders in 2018. That’s an increase from $52 billion in 2017, and more than double the amount in 2016 ($32 billion).
MBA expects mortgage origination volume to hold steady in 2019 to around $530 billion ($526 billion in 2018), with non-traditional lenders poised to have another active year.

The following problem appeared on the SAT.
A cubic box with edge of length x inches is tied with a string 106 inches long. The string crosses itself at right angles on the top and bottom of the box. If the bow required 10 inches of string, what is the maximum number of inches x could be?
1. Write an equation based on this information.
2. Solve the equation for x.
Front face + top + back + bottom = 4x.
Top face + right + bottom + left = 4x.
So the total amount of string = 4x + 4 x = 8x.
So the length of the string without the box = 12 inches.

SPIKE TV announced that a new show would air on March 21st 10:00 PM, 9:00 Central- called ‘American Digger’ Since the annoucement there has been a fair amount of negative sentiment growing against this TV program. For example archaeologyfieldwork.com said “New TV show encourages treasure hunting in battlefields and historic sites” and has posted a link to a petition against it. http://www.change.org/petitions/stop-spike-tv-from-looting-our-collective-past.
By their own admission American Savage the company depicted in the show which is run by Rick Savage makes about $500,000 per year digging up historical artifacts. It is ironic that while this organization based in Jamestown, VA goes about digging up historical artifacts, the U.S. Department of the Interior just announced an award of $895,405 to the state of Virginia to preserve historic sites.Virginia’s grant is among $46.9 million awarded to all 50 states, the District of Columbia, U.S. territories and three affiliated Pacific island states.
Will all Metal Detecting hobbyists be portrayed in the same light?
An online video clip (link below) of the new show illustrates the nature of their work. While it may seem entertaining to some, it may not convey the image of the average metal detectorist. Most of us do not go around with backhoes, pick axe and large shovels digging gigantic holes in the ground and throwing dirt all around. One video promo shows them using explosives.
So the next time you go seeking permission to dig on someones property, don't be surprised if they turn you down, especially if they have seen this show.
Rick Savage a former wrestler whose real name is Frank Huguelet stars in the SPIKE TV reality series.
Here is just part of the announcement released by SPIKE TV regarding the show. You can read the rest of the piece by clicking on the link below.
New York, NY, February 15, 2012 – Spike TV ventures around the country in search of historical treasure buried in the backyards of unsuspecting citizens in the new unscripted original series, “American Digger.” Premiering Tuesday, March 20 at 10:00 PM, ET/PT, “American Digger” follows the American Savage team, led by former professional wrestler-turned-modern- day relic hunter Ric Savage as they scour target-rich areas, such as battlefields and historic sites, in hopes of striking it rich by unearthing and selling rare pieces of American history.
In the US, there are millions of historical relics buried in backyards just waiting to be discovered and turned into profit. “American Digger” hopes to claim a piece of that pie as the series travels to a different city each week, including Detroit, MI, Brooklyn, NY, Chicago, IL and Jamestown, VA searching for high-value artifacts and relics, some of which have been untouched for centuries. After pinpointing historical locations such as Civil War and Revolutionary War battlefields, Savage’s first task is to convince reluctant homeowners to let his team dig up their property using state-of-the-art metal detectors and heavy-duty excavation equipment. The team will then sell any artifacts found for a substantial profit by consulting experts and scouring the antique and collectible markets, but not before negotiating a deal to divide the revenue with the property owners.
Throughout the series, items with great historical and cultural significance will be found, including a late 17th century British Carronade naval cannon, a 5 million year old Megalodon shark’s tooth and a 19th century Kentucky long rifle.
American Savage, based in Mechanicsville, VA, is the top artifact recovery company in the country, digging as much as half a million dollars worth of historical artifacts out of US soil each year. The team is comprised of recovery expert Rue Shumate, battlefield historian Bob Buttafuso, Savage’s wife Rita who manages the business and their 25-year old son Giuseppe, who provides tech support and is the “muscle” of the operation.
i think this show is just plain old stupid. the stuff in the ground isn't even dirty when they pretend to take it out of the ground. And what dealer pays for a bag of coins on the spot without looking at them. This is so fake.

Why are children crying about school?
If you have a child who enjoys school, count your blessings.
I don’t. I have a child who cries almost every night. He cries while we are working on his homework; it is too hard and too much for him. He cries before bedtime; he doesn’t want to go to school because he feels unable to meet the demands of his daily schedule. He begs me to home-school him, so he can learn at his own pace.
As a teacher my son’s hatred of school breaks my heart. Just to be clear, it is the idea of school he hates. What does that mean to him? Let’s see: He loves his teachers. He loves his friends. What he hates is learning the school’s way: “I feel stupid everyday” he tells me.
For a year now I have been seriously considering homeschooling Ian; because of the current educational situation, homeschooling might be my only option. However, this limits my options as a teacher. I will have to give up the profession I love in order to teach my son. Ian is definitely worth it.
But I won’t give up on public education without a fight.
I’m getting ahead of myself; I’ll write more on that in a later post.
For now, I want to share a Washington Post article from a New York State principal Carol Burris. What she states at the end of her post is true: “New York, sadly, has been a canary in the Common Core coal mine, and if we do not heed the danger a generation of students will be lost.” New York is experiencing the educational reforms before the rest of us; so what they are experiencing now, the rest of us will or already are experiencing.
Take the time to look at the links provided, especially the 1st grade test she shares. Also, for those of you who are unaware of exactly where your tax money is going, pay attention to information about the company who makes the tests as well as the practice tests. There is a lot of money to be made in education, and Pearson, as well as other companies like them, has hit the jackpot.
What we allow is what will continue. I will not allow this to continue for my son any longer. How about you?

I saw an article saying that high school students today have the same anxiety levels as insane asylum mental patients during the 1950’s. It doesn’t surprise me actually. I think that for some students, the expectation level scares them into believing they won’t be good enough when they fail over and over after trying so hard.
That doesn’t surprise me either. We have more and more students turning to drugs or hurting themselves in some way because of that fear. It’s so sad and I can’t just stand by and watch it happen anymore.
Yea, it’s just so sad and unbelievable. Hopefully more people will see what’s going on and try to stop it.

How do we know what we know? How do we know that what we know is knowledge? Far from being topics of abstract philosophical debate, these questions shape fundamental aspects of our existence. Epistemology, the study of knowledge, gives us a view into why we choose and judge as we do. It reveals to us the limits of our thinking and allows us to defend our ideas to our most formidable opponents … and to ourselves.
The role epistemology plays in how we view the world comes to the fore whenever we read a book, watch a movie, or look at a painting. With these actions, we enter into a tentative, unspoken agreement with the artist and the work. Sometimes, we are oblivious to the conditions being set; and in other cases, we recognize how the work and artist are trying to trick us into believing.
This seminar will be an opportunity to untangle the relationships between knowledge, opinion, fact, truth, illusion, and reality. After becoming familiar with classic short works by Plato, Hume, and Kant, we will turn our attention to 20th-century works that challenge many of the assumptions—such as the presence of an objective reality—that are central to Western thought about the nature of knowledge.

"Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth?"
1. Multiple attackers. If the attack is coordinated, you are facing the highest likelihood of all that you will be taken down. NO martial art prepares you for dealing effectively with committed multiple attackers, who in some cases have a pre-planned assault intended to put you down.
2. Bad terrain. Training on mats gives you a completely unrealistic sense of balance and footing in actual fighting. Its still useful, and far safer to train on mats most of the time, but things change dramatically in a fight in everyday living environments, where curbs, debris, excrement, vehicle fluids, planters, chairs, tables, that little lip where the sidewalk has been pushed up by roots, the slightly wet soles of your shoes, that divot in the grass that you just stepped in, etc. etc. etc.
3. Surprise. People, especially martial artists, are very generous with themselves when it comes to awareness skills and the ability to not be taken by surprise.
The dojo ain't real life. Most average, middle class people (to include martial artists) have little understanding of the dynamics of violence outside of news and entertainment media and the dojo (in fact the dojo is often counterproductive to real defensive skills without considerable re-wiring).
On the street, they are either caught by surprise with a sucker shot, or are momentarily stunned that "this is actually happening" and lose valuable time and maneuver opportunities in the face of an attack. That can and does translate to getting knocked down, or simply falling down.
Returning to the earlier comment: most fights don't end with one punch, but a great deal of them do end up with someone getting knocked to the ground and repeatedly booted in the head or ground and pounded.
Here’s an example which is common amongst martial artists with little or no resistive training or real fight experience. The cooperative or choreographed skill set they have worked so hard developing goes right out the window the minute real pressure and real contact, flavored with real emotion and real fear, take place. Well trained people end up doing a bad facsimile of MMA because they have not trained for the actual dynamics and chaos of a fight in earnest.
Its usually not because their "art" fails them, but how they train their art fails them - big difference.
They make big mistakes, they do goofy things, give up their center mentally and physically, and often lose the benefits their art should afford them: to include keeping off the ground.
Watch the early UFCs as man after man simply abandons years of training, to high dan rank, supposedly with muscles and nerves conditioned to perform the various skills they have honed: they toss it all out in favor of flailing strikes, poor and out of balance techniques, and absolute, sheer panic when on the ground. Its not intentional, its a stress reaction to something totally outside of what they have prepared for - not "combat," not even "fighting," but a kind of physically safe and stylistic pantomime of it.
Furthermore, the early UFCs were not even real fights - they KNEW they weren't going to be stabbed or shot by the sudden appearance of a weapon. They KNEW that multiple attackers wouldn't be involved,. They KNEW that a referee was there and they wouldn't be permanently maimed or killed - yet their "combative" training simply vanished under real pressure.
So, all that just sets the stage... Chances are when it comes right down to it, your technique will probably fail, and you may land right on your kiester ~ so you might as well prepare for it.
I would say that at least a third to 50% of serious physical encounters end up at some point with at least one party on the ground or in some situation similar to ground fighting (on a bed, on a couch, getting knocked over onto furniture or other surrounding features, etc.).
The more people acting against you, the more likely it will happen.
The less warning the victim had, the more likely it will happen.
The more brutal the initial onslaught, the more likely it will happen.
The fact that being on the ground is so much more dangerous than remaining standing in a real fight should go without saying. But its all the more reason that anyone truly serious about self defense should dedicate a significant portion of their training time to ground strategies, if mainly extricating oneself from bad spots and getting up. That means against skilled opponents - wrestlers, BJJ guys, Judoka - NOT some friends in the dojo who "roll around" every Saturday at open mat and think they understand groundwork.
The thread bearing Leblanc’s extended post listed above is posted in this aikiweb post.
Judo ~ fits our style. Shodo Morita was well versed in Judo.
Systema: Not familiar with it, other than what I’ve read.
90% of All Fights Go To The Ground ~ Saying, “I’m not going to the ground” is naive.
“Several years ago while at an aikido seminar, I witnessed 2 younger (mid to late 30's) and very talented / high ranking aikido teachers (one a 4th dan, the other a 5th dan) get into a brawl. They got into a real fight during the seminar while training with one another.
Apparently the two sensei had a lot of "history" and hated one another.
Things got really ugly and serious punches started flying. Really sloppy, wild punches I might add. They were both swinging for the fences.
A few seconds later they were both on the ground doing what looked like really bad ground and pound MMA until they were pulled apart.
Not at any point did either one of these high ranking aikido guys do or even attempt anything that vaguely resembled aikido.... and the fight also ended up on the ground.
The fact that being on the ground is so much more dangerous than remaining standing in a real fight should go without saying. But its all the more reason that anyone truly serious about self defense should dedicate a significant portion of their training time to ground strategies, if mainly extricating oneself from bad spots and getting up.
That means against skilled opponents - wrestlers, BJJ guys, Judoka - NOT some friends in the dojo who "roll around" every Saturday at open mat and think they understand ground work.

I zipped out today to run a couple of quick errands for my Mom. what a drive! So pretty that I felt compelled to stop along the way for pictures so I could share the beauty with you.
these overhanging trees are on nearly every neighborhood road ... they remind me of "Father of The Bride" ... LOVE that show! And LOVE these neighborhoods!
"We may run, walk, stumble, drive or fly, but let us never lose sight of the reason for the journey, or miss a chance to see a rainbow on the way."
How pretty and I love the quote too.
Gorgeous photos. Thank you so much sharing. That quote is certainly something we should all live by.
That is a nice drive. Nice drives are getting fewer and fewer, it seems.
What a beautiful everyday pleasure!
Always seeing the beauty around you - wonderful.
Thank you for sharing this - it's always lovely to have a peek into another place. :) And that quote is perfect and wonderful.
I like that your blog has quick snippets of inspiration :) It's kind of like an online and abridged version of Chicken Soup for the Soul!
I love trees. I could take pictures of trees for years and never get tired.
What a pretty drive! I love the Father of the Bride movies (all of them), they give you such a warm homey feel. Lovely trees, what a beautiful creation that God gave for us to enjoy.
I hope your visit with your parents is very special and full of cherished memories for all of you.
such a beautiful quote to remind you to enjoy the journey and not just the destination. Often the journey is twice as fun - well, sometimes anyway.

At the summit we fulfill our mantra of "Networking the Norwegian Way" to its fullest.
By going on a trip together, sharing a bus ride, living in cabins with soon to be friends, rafting down a frothy river, hanging out in the tipi camp, eating burned sheep head, making breakfast together and many many meetings with startups, investors, partners and media.
Startup Extreme is the perfect place for startups and scaleups to build bridges with investors and the community.
Startup Extreme is the ultimate place to meet, mingle and get to know an ocean of new potential investors. Book meetings throughout the day with help from our convenient booking system, and secure your next investment case.
Needless to say more - Extreme Sport Activities is a big part of Startup Extreme. Network with your next investor while rafting down a frothy river. It might sound like insanity, however, Norwegians know that true relationships are not build by sharing business cards in a hotel conference.
In addition to the content of the talks, the meetings with investors and media, the pitching at stage, and the endless networking opportunities, it is easy to forget the overall experience. Be amazed by the opening ceremony, the beautiful and majestic venue, the fantastic food and beverages, the beautiful nature and scenery at Voss, and the overall vibe of the festival. Bring with you memories from this fantastic experience!
Throughout the day, the different stages in the venue will be packed with inspiring talks from the "best of the best" in the industry. Listen to successful scaleups explain how they managed to go from small to big, corporates and investors discuss smart hacks in scaling up, and big names talk about the challenges of the future.
The pitching stage will be open for qualified startups and scaleups during the conference in Bergen and summit in Voss. Prepare your case and pitch for a jury and audience consisting of investors and people eager to get to know your business.
Startup Extreme is packed with Norwegian, Nordic and International media - This is the place to be seen. Selected startups and scaleups will also get personal introduction to media and investors of interest. Don't miss out on having all eyes on you!
At Startup Extreme you will not only meet investors and media, but other startups and scaleups in the same situation as you find yourself in. Share knowledge and experience with other likeminded, and expand your professional network. Who knows, maybe they will come in handy some day?

This is in response to your letter of January 29, 1991, as amplified by our telephone conversation of March 15, 1991, inquiring about deposit insurance.
In brief, your client, a money order company, sells negotiable money orders, through various agents, which are paid out of a deposit account that the company maintains in an insured bank. In essence, as you say, the purchaser of a money order buys a draft on the company's deposit account. As indicated in our conversation, this does not create an ownership interest in the account for the purchasers (or subsequent holders) of the money orders, and does not provide a basis for "pass-through" deposit insurance. The words "Agent for Purchasers", following the company's name, in the account title is incorrect and should be removed.
One of the agents that sells the money orders is the insured bank in which the money order company maintains its deposit account for paying its money order obligations. When the bank sells money orders for the company it deposits the proceeds temporarily in a separate deposit account before transferring them to the company's deposit account described in the preceding paragraph. If this separate deposit account is reflected on the deposit account records of the bank as held by the bank as agent or custodian for the mortgage company the funds in it will be insured up to $100,000, separate from and in addition to the ($100,000) insurance provided for the deposit described in the preceding paragraph. See 12 CFR §330.10(a). The existing collection account incorrectly reflects that it is held "for Purchasers". This should be revised to show the proper owner, the company.

The Torah recounts the farmer’s script when bringing the Bikkurim, beginning with “I declare today… that I have arrived at the land that Hashem promised…” (26:3). It’s a peculiar statement, obviously, because the farmer could not have just arrived- he must have planted and waited for his fruit tree to blossom before bringing his “first fruits”! Why is the farmer required to say “today… I arrived in the land…”?
One could explain that this statement is not meant to describe his arrival, but rather the farmer’s newfound appreciation of the land in which he arrived. He isn’t claiming that he just came, but that this land- that I came to- is in fact the land that G-d promised. But if that was so, what changed that helped him realize that?
One could explain that the experience of bringing the first fruit is an awakening. Beforehand, the farmer lived far-off in a remote area of Israel, knowing only his family, his crop, and his animals. At the ripening of his first fruit he makes the trek up to Jerusalem, the holy headquarters of serving G-d. As opposed to his typical, just-like-any-other-countryside atmosphere, he’s taken aback by the majesty and grandeur of the Beit Hamikdash, the holy priests, prayers and songs. Reveling in that environment, his perspective changes. The basket of fruit in his hands is no longer fruit of any other country, they’re of a country guided through a holy mission, according to the compass of G-d. Whereas before, his experience was like any other place around the world, he now appreciates that the country he lives in actually is different, one infused with meaning and purpose. Hence, he remarks, “I declare today… that I have arrived in land that G-d promised”, not like the places I was before.
As we approach the High Holidays, we too should be finding messages of renewal. We may not be going anywhere new, meeting any new people, or changing to a new schedule, but our perspective should be new. When we pray and engage with the upcoming holy days, it should bring a new awareness to our purpose; the purpose of our homes, our families, and our activities. They might be the same places and activities as before, but now we should appreciate that they’re the one’s that G-d gave us. Just as the farmer stands in awe of majesty of the Temple, let us be changed through the prayers of the Yamim Noraim, our very own “Days of Awe”.
