These are also known as Hybrid Trailers. These unique trailers are a cross between a normal Trailer and a Tent Trailer. |
In order to create more sleeping space these trailers have pop-out ends or sides like a Tent Trailer. |
Don't confuse this with a room slideout. Room slideouts have solid walls and ceilings, the pop-out has canvas walls and ceilings like a Tent Trailer. |
These pop-outs allow these RVs to comfortably sleep up to 8 people in a modest sized trailer. Some of these pop-outs are configured with bunk beds, creating even more sleeping space. |
Now you will have no excuse for not inviting all of your relatives to go camping with you. |
The Expandable trailer is less expensive than a similar sized trailer with room slideouts. |
Hopefully, the above information will be helpful in steering you in the right direction. |
If you have decided that a Trailer is the right type of RV for you, you should now head over to the Buying a RV section of this web site to get some more helpful hints. |

A professional cyclist can steadilly output 400 to 450 Watts of power. |
A fit cyclist can steadilly output 200 to 250 Watts of power. |
A casual cyclist can steadilly output 100 to 150 Watts of power. |
Q: How to determine the amount of power you can steadilly output? |
A:In my case, I went to a gym that has an indoor exercise bicycle with a display of speed, power, distance, etc... I set the display to indicate the power output and started gradually increasing load to the bicycle until I reached my comfort limit. At that point I was able to steadilly output around 150 W. By steadilly, I mean for at least 1/2 hour. The more you cycle, the fitter you'll get and that limit will increase up to a certain point. You will most likely do better with a real bicycle as the riding position, saddle and handlebars will give you a better fit. |
A more accurate approach would be to try the hardest steep hill that we can comfortably climb (we need to know the slope of the hill that can be obtained in websites with a map that also show the elevation, like www.mapmyride.com ) and record the speed (the climb should be done at a constant speed). |
The following article on the Copenhagen Cycle Chic blog has some good cycling tips, unfortunatelly the point 5 (gears) can be misleading since it tries to apply flat city arguments to hilly cities. And even though I agree that the bicycle's weight is not signifficant up to a certain point, it is not totally irrelevant either. The whole weight (bike+cargo+cyclist) will be something to consider when chosing the gearing range of a bicycle, except when that bicycle is to be used only in flat areas. |
To overcome some steep hills when this type of infrastructure is not present, one can either walk the bike up the hill or have a lowest gear that is low enough to make it within the rider's available power. It's not enough to say that "if 3 speeds don't make it get 5 speeds". You could even have 18 speeds and still not be able to climb that hill. In this case what matters is how low is your lowest speed and how much weight will you have to carry uphill. |
This weight will be the total weight of the set bicycle+rider+cargo, so, lets see what happens if we have a 70 Kg person riding a 13 Kg bicycle carrying 7 Kg of cargo (total weight 90 Kg) and we add 5 Kgs to the bicycle's weight. |
These 5 Kilos can mean 1 set of fenders, chainguard, mudflaps, rack, basket, saddlebag and set of tools which would turn an inadequate commuting bicycle into something much more practical. |
a difference of 2 Watts which is not even noticeable by the rider. Also, the power needed to carry the load is small to begin with because it's an almost flat surface. |
As you can see on the graph above, even if the total weight raises to 160 Kg the power needed to carry it up the 1% slope will be under 50 Watts. In these conditions anybody can ride even a fully loaded cargo bike. |
the 12 Watts difference could barelly be noticed by the rider, and would it be worth saving weight on a set of accessories that make all the difference when using the bicycle for transportation purposes? |
I still don't think so. But what we see is that the steeper the hill, the bigger the difference even a small 5 Kg load will make, because now, the necessary amount of power to carry the load up the hill is aproaching the power we can steadilly output. |
1-Lowering the gear ratio: replacing the rear sprocket by a bigger one or the chainring by a smaller one. |
by using this sheet, you will see that reducing the cadence will translate in a decrease in the necessary amount of power to go up the slope. This happens because you're lowering your speed and Power = Force x Speed. However, the force you will have to apply to the pedals (Avge. crank force) will be the same and if this force goes beyond your comfort level, reducing the cadence will make it even more painfull on your knees. In my case, I feel comfortable pushing the pedals with a force up to 20% of my weight because I never get up from the saddle to push the pedals. |
If you usually stand to push the pedals, then maybe you can use your whole weight for a while. If it's a long climb you will need to do something to the gear ratio. |
The following graph shows that for an 80 Kg set at a cadence of 60 rpm with 39 gear inches most people would be able to climb hills up to a 6% slope (under 150 Watts of power required). |
Astellas Pharma Inc. has completed the acquisition of Ogeda SA (previously Euroscreen SA, Gosselies, Belgium). |
Under the share purchase agreement executed between Astellas and Ogeda shareholders, Astellas paid €500m to acquire 100% of the equity in Ogeda. Ogeda shareholders will become eligible to receive up to €300m in milestones relating to clinical progress of fezolinetant, Ogeda’s most advanced clinical programme for the treatment of menopausal-related vasomotor symptoms. |
With the acquisition, Astellas’ expands its clinical pipeline with fezolinetant, an oral compound targeting the NK3 receptor. The lead compound of Ogeda (formerly Euroscreen S.A.), fezolinetant (ESN364), is currently being developed in three Phase IIa programmes to treat different conditions: menopausal hot flashes, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and uterine fibroids. Furthermore, Ogeda’s preclinical ulcerative colitis programme ESN 282 has been partnered with Merck & Co. Ogeda’s third published compound ESN601 in discovery stage is designed to treat autoimmune diseases. |
In January, Ogeda announced positive results from a Phase IIa study for the non-hormonal treatment of menopause-related vasomotor symptoms (“MR-VMS”). In 80 patients, fezolinetant reduced the frequency of moderate-to-severe HF at week-4 by 89% from baseline compared to 38% for placebo, and 93% at week-12, compared to 54% for placebo. Fezolinetant also reduced HF severity at week 4 by 60% from baseline compared to 12% for placebo, and 70% at week-12 compared to 23% for placebo. No severe adverse events were reported in either treatment group. Mild-to-moderate adverse events were reported in 67% of the fezolinetant group and 80% in the placebo group. |
Added black hawk details, be sure to credit DaisukaKazama for the UH-60 sprite. |
One small thing... The Black Hawk shouldn't have those people in there. It's OK though, but if you CAN then do it. Otherwise, we can just use that. |
WOW nice... i cant even do that... but dont u think the 2 sides are a bit too big? |
I tried to split a seed in two but there’s nothing inside the seeds. Looking at pictures by other people on the Internet it seems to be normal that the seeds split into two hollow halves. It would be interesting to do a germination test on these seeds and see if they’ll come alive. I didn’t like the smell or taste of fresh coriander so I was planning on grinding these seeds into powder and use it for cooking. I think I’ll reserve a couple for germination though. |
When I get a spare moment one winters evening I’ll pick the good seeds of the stems and save the seeds for next year. |

ATHENS, Ohio – An early-morning fire Sunday sent at least one resident and three firefighters to the hospital and damaged several buildings on West Union Street in the Uptown area. The injured, including one resident, three firefighters and three police officer, were transported to O’Bleness Memorial Hospital. |
Several businesses, including housing Jackie O's Public House, The Union Bar, Smoke Zone, the Campus Sundry and Jack Neal Floral were destroyed or heavily damaged. |
At least thirty residents were displaced by the fire. |
The fire reportedly started around 4:10 a.m. and units from Athens City, Richland Area, Nelsonville and The Plains and Waterloo Township fire departments responded. At 9 a.m., water from two ladder trucks still deluged the buildings which appeared to suffer severe damage. |
Electrical power is out in what Athens City Safety Director Ron Lucas described as a significant part of the Uptown area. Lucas reported that four residents were injured but three refused treatment. One resident was treated and released. A hospital spokesperson said the four first responders remain in an observation status but no serious injuries were reported. |
West Union Street between Congress and Court streets remain closed. Court Street was closed from President to Washington streets. It is unknown when the streets will reopen. The Rome Township Volunteer Fire Department is providing fire coverage for while city units work to extinguish the fire, clear the structures and assess damage. |
Owner of The Union Bar, Eric Gunn, said he received a call around 5:45 a.m. Sunday. “The bar is a total loss,” Gunn said. |
Lucas said the cause of the fire is unknown. A spokeswomen for State Fire Marshall's office said investigators have been on scene all day and the fire is still under investigation. |
In a social 4:45 p.m. media release, Lucas said Union Street will remain closed through the evening between Jackie-O's and the Uptown Dog. Businesses on the south side of Union are accessible by sidewalk and businesses west of Jackie-O's and east of The Uptown Dog are accessible on the north side. |
Fire crews will remain on scene throughout the rest of the day and tonight to make sure fires do not flare up. The scene will be assessed in the morning before opening Union St. up to vehicular traffic. |
Court St. and Congress St. have been reopened to vehicular traffic. |
Three firefighters and three police officers were treated for minor exhaustion and smoke inhalation symptoms. One of the three officers also sustained a knee injury. |
Power to 31 S. Court St. is expected to be restored sometime this afternoon. |
Approximately 40 Ohio University students are known to have been displaced by the fire, with many of those students being temporarily housed in local hotels. |
For those interested in assisting affected students, a donation station has been set up on the fourth floor of Baker University Center. According to OHIO officials, the affected students are in need of toiletries and warm clothing. |

The Royals season has come to an end, but the memories we hold of this team will never fade. The 2015 World Series Champions created lasting impressions on all of us and we will forever remember the World Series in 2015. In may be just a few short years after, but let’s relive those memories game by game with the Kansas City Royals vs the New York Mets. Gives us chills to dive back into the these past events that lead up to the Royals being the champions of the MLB. |
In the first game of the 2015 World Series, the two teams came out to prove something. It took 14 innings but the Royals pulled through to prove themselves right off the bat. It wasn’t easy though. The Royals had a great start with an inside-the-park home run from Alcides Escobar. He was the first player to do that in a World Series since 1929. However, the Mets had three runs within six innings and the Royals we down 1-3. Hosmer and Moustakas helped to tie the game in the bottom of the sixth to 3-3 but the Mets would score again in the top of the eighth going ahead 4-3. In the bottom of the ninth, the Royals had one last chance to prove themselves. Alex Gordon stepped up to the plate and hammered the ball to deep center and had a home run for the Royals tying the score. Another five innings would go by without a run from either team. In the bottom of the fourteenth, Escobar had reached third and Zobrist was on second. Bartolo Colon pitched for the Mets and Hosmer walked to the plate. As Colon pitched, Hosmer knocked the ball far right and Escobar headed home to end the game. The Royals won the first World Series Game 5-4. |
As the second game began in Kauffman Stadium, Royals Johnny Cueto, pitched a complete game, meaning no relief pitcher. Cueto allowed only two hits the entire game which the Mets could only convert to one run. The Royals capitalized on their defensive effort and in the fifth inning, they made a run on the offensive end to score four runs. In the eighth inning, the Royals upped their game and with a lead off single, followed by a RBI double and an RBI triple, the Royals were ahead 7-1 going into the top of the ninth. Unfortunately for the Mets, they couldn’t overcome Cueto’s pitches and laid another goose egg to end the game 7-1 Royals. |
The Mets finally have home field advantage in game three at Citi Field in Queens, New York. Yordano Ventura was pitching for the Royals and Noah Sydergaard pitched for the Mets. The New York fans rallied and helped pull their beloved team through as the Mets outscored the Royals 9-3 for the game. One key notable item for his game for the Royals, was that Raul Mondesi made his MLB debut, pinch hitting for Danny Duffy. Mondesi was the first ever player to debut in World Series. |
Another game in Citi Field but this time the Royals are ready for the home field advantage against them. The Mets also felt confident and caused the Royals to fall short a few innings. By the fifth inning, the score was 2-0 Mets. However, the Royals wouldn’t let the score get them down and made a fight to get on top. Second baseman, Ben Zobrist hit his eighth double of the series. Following Zobrist, Lorenzo Cain had an RBI with Zobrist running home, cutting the deficit to 2-3. In the eighth inning, the Mets had an error and caused the Royals to tie the game 3-3. Moustakas up to bat against Met’s pitcher, Familia, made a clutch play with a single which lead to an RBI taking the lead. Salvy then had an RBI and gave the Royals 5-3 lead, to which the Mets couldn’t recover. The series was no 3-1. Just one more game and the Royals would be crowned World Series Champions. |
After sad news of Voloquez’s father’s death before game one, Voloquez went home to the Dominican Republic for the week. Right before game five, the Royals’ starting pitcher made it back. With the Mets up 2-0 in the 9th, the Royals only had one chance to make a last effort go at a World Series Championship otherwise resulting in a loss and a 3-2 series. Cain was sent home by Hosmer’s double hit making the score 1-2. Hosmer advanced to third, from a ground-out sacrifice from Mous and then Perez hit a ground ball straight to the third baseman who thought Hosmer would stay put. The moment the ball was thrown to force out Salvy, Hosmer darted home and the first baseman rushed to send them ball to the catcher but overshot and Hosmer scored tying the game. The game continued into 12 innings. In the top of the 12th, the Royals scored 5 more times. Wade Davis pitched a shutout inning and the Royals had won the world series. |
With an astounding 4-1 win over the New York Mets, the Kansas City Royals broke their years of dry spells and became World Series Champions. Salvador Perez was named MVP of the series. Many of these Royals greats, Salvy, Hos, Mooooose, Can, Escobar, Gordonn and more made this championship a reality and we will forever thank them. No matter where players go, they will forever be 2015 World Series Champions. They will forever be part of the Royals fam. Thank you Kansas City Royals for years of great baseball and the memories of a championship our city will cherish forever. Even in the coming seasons, we will look back on this team and think about them as World Series Champions. |
Port Vale midfielder Michael Brown surprised his teammates by hiring an ice cream van to celebrate his birthday. |
The veteran turned 39 on Monday but decided against bringing in the customary cakes, flapjacks and croissants for his colleagues. |
Instead, he organised for the ice cream van to turn up for an hour after training on Thursday for the enjoyment of players, coaches and staff. |
“Normally when it’s your birthday you’re meant to bring cakes in or croissants or some sort of flapjacks or whatever – some treats for the lads,” he told port-vale.co.uk. |
“So they were sort of saying ‘come on Browny you’re getting on now, you’ve got to do something special for us’. |
“We occasionally get a bacon sandwich or something like that for the lads so they were saying for me to do a butty van or that sort of thing. |
Brown says the idea got rave reviews from his teammates, commenting: “They’re all loving it. |
Coming from a background in comic art and video game pre-visualization, I am interested in how the use of this pop vocabulary can be appropriated to work in the context of narrative abstraction. |
My paintings are part exploration of abstract space and plane, part homage to the disposable ink strokes of the paper era, the weighted lines divorced from its entertainment context, and once expanded onto canvas, ready for new meaning. |
Deconstructing the marks, rhythm and language native to comics and graffiti to express movement, sound and rhythm through swooshes, speed lines, sound effects and speech bubbles, I am curious about how we as viewers are predisposed to construe meaning from juxtaposed signs, to pursue visual cues even as familiar symbols are in a state of entropy. |
Amateur Radio Newsline Report Number 2050 with a release date of Friday, February 10, 2017 to follow in 5-4-3-2-1. |
The following is a QST. Hams test drive an experimental band in the U.S. Young amateurs prepare for School Club Roundup -- and we hear from the winner of the Dave Kalter Youth DX Adventure's essay competition. All this and more as Amateur Radio Newsline Report 2050 comes your way right now. |
STEPHEN/ANCHOR: We open this week's report with an update on a ham band that is still experimental -- at least in the U.S. Until 630 meters becomes mainstream in the States as it is so many places elsewhere in the world there are always events like the Mid-Winter 630-meter Operating Activity. Here's Amateur Radio Newsline's Skeeter Nash N5ASH with the details of the second such event, held earlier this month. |
SKEETER: Conditions on 630 meters were average, according to Fritz Raab W1FR, coordinator of the ARRL'S 630 Meter Experimental group, but he told Amateur Radio Newsline that participants enjoyed the second annual mid-winter activity on the band. |
According to a summary from John Langridge KB5NJD, WSPR activity was at an all-time high and there were abundant trans-Pacific openings. Canadian stations were eager participants as well on their newest band although hams in British Columbia had complications from snow and ice conditions. A number of stations were also active using CW and JT9. |
Raab had said previously that as the solar cycle has gone into decline, MF propagation has improved, especially in the paths to VK and JA. |
Now it is a matter of waiting. Countries permitting 630-meter band operation include Ireland, Switzerland, New Zealand, Finland, Canada, Poland and Bulgaria. Raab said hams in the U.S. have been hoping for the FCC to permit normal operation on 472 kHz to 479 kHz since 2004 and so they are accustomed to sitting things out. We hope their patience pays off. |
For Amateur Radio Newsline, I'm Skeeter Nash N5ASH. |
ANCHOR/STEPHEN: Meet Bryant Rascoll, KG5HVO, a young ham who just qualified for a DX adventure in Costa Rica with a winning essay about ham radio's meaning in his life. Let Amateur Radio Newsline's Don Wilbanks, AE5DW, introduce him to you. |
DON: Last November YDXA, the Dave Kalter Youth DX Adventure announced an exciting essay competition for young radio amateurs between the ages of 12 and 18 describing their involvement in, personal future plans for, and importance of Amateur Radio. I am very pleased to introduce the winner, Bryant Rascoll, KG5HVO from my part of the world, New Orleans. Hi Bryant, welcome to Newsline! |
