The Commander Studebaker Drivers Club Volume 48 Issue 6 June 2016 Hershey Day Trip Potomac Chapter The Commander Studebaker Drivers Club Volume 48 Issue 6 June 2016 Hershey Day Trip May 14th, a beautiful spring morning, found Ruth and Darrell Carr, Nadine and Mike Farris, Ron and Don Hoff, Bob and Donna Johnstone, Karen and Paul Johnson, Shirley and Terry McDaniel, and Pat and Larry Merhaut gathered at the Burger King at Thurmont, Maryland. The caravan lined up and pulled out exactly at 9:15 as sched- uled heading north on US 15, a friendly and scenic drive. After crossing in to Pennsylvania, at York Springs the car- avan headed off toward Carlisle following Route 94. Those who had not been on that route were very im- pressed by the beauty of the Adams County orchard lands, all in all a very scenic route. At Carlisle the caravan joined Interstate 81 and headed east. Af- ter a few wild lane changes enroute in the Harrisburg vicinity caravaners exited 81 north of Hershey and headed down Route 39 toward Hershey. With a number of traffic lights and heavy traffic be- tween 81 and Hershey some intrepid travelers got widely separated, but not to worry. Ruth Carr’s excellent directions got all to the first stop, Hershey Gardens with no problems. Hershey Gardens is beautifully located on a hill top overlooking the town and Hershey Park. All enjoyed the beauty of the Gardens with wide, very accessible paths and very unusual plants, imagi- native sculptures and more. All in all Hershey Gardens is a very worthwhile destination in itself. Keeping right on the carefully timed schedule, the caravan left for lunch at a Panera Bread restaurant nearby. Again the heavy traffic broke up the group, but also again, the great directions got everyone to the restaurant. As the group gathered to depart Panera, a wild wind and rain suddenly came up making everyone run to the cars. Leaving Panera wasn’t a problem though and the caravan moved on to the final stop, the AACA Museum.

And by the time you are reading this we probably have kicked off summer and ended spring with our chapter spring pic- nic at Hedgesville Presbyterian Church. Bring a friend (a potential new member?) and lots of that great home-made food. Last Saturday was fantastic weather and the Orphan Car Tour. Our chapter was well represented with four Studebakers (with Frank Philippe, Steve Walters, Hal and Kathy Herman, and Mary, Forrest, and Karl Veit) plus a Golden Hawk from the Keystone Chapter present. We had time to gawk at a nice group of about 30 orphans before starting the drive. The tour included stops at two private homes with collections. The first stop included several garages containing many show rods and even an abused Avanti. The second stop included several post-war Packards, other cars, and two fire engines. Our route included two historical colonial sites: an original school house and a reconstructed colonial port town near Annapolis (Londontowne). Since our family was not going to the conclusion dinner, we did not attempt to answer the mys- tery clues and were able to enjoy the drive down some beautiful country roads.

We're sure not everyone watches this thing - it's very dark - but they have an interesting mix of time in here - older technologies like cars and phones with newer stuff occasionally sneaking in because they aren't paying close-enough attention. The photo is dark because the WHOLE SERIES is dark - we've never seen a sunny day in two seasons' worth of episodes. The purpose of this message is to entice more of our members to join in some Studebaker pride this summer in West Virginia.

  • Hand-Arm Vibration in the Aetiology of Hearing Loss in Lumberjacks
    British Journal of Industrial Medicine 1981 ;38 :281-289 Hand-arm vibration in the aetiology of hearing loss in lumberjacks I PYYKKO,l J STARCK,2 M FARKKILA,l M HOIKKALA,2 0 KORHONEN,2 AND M NURMINEN2 From the Institute ofPhysiology,' University of Helsinki, and the Institute of Occupational Health,2 Helsinki, Finland ABSTRACT A longitudinal study of hearing loss was conducted among a group of lumberjacks in the years 1972 and 1974-8. The number of subjects increased from 72 in 1972 to 203 in 1978. They were classified according to (1) a history of vibration-induced white finger (VWF), (2) age, (3) duration of exposure, and (4) duration of ear muff usage. The hearing level at 4000 Hz was used to indicate the noise-induced permanent threshold shift (NIPTS). The lumberjacks were exposed, at their present pace of work, to noise, Leq values 96-103 dB(A), and to the vibration of a chain saw (linear acceleration 30-70 ms-2). The chain saws of the early 1960s were more hazardous, with the average noise level of 111 dB(A) and a variation acceleration of 60-180 ms2. When classified on the basis of age, the lumberjacks with VWF had about a 10 dB greater NIPTS than subjects without VWF. NIPTS increased with the duration of exposure to chain saw noise, but with equal noise exposure the NIPTS was about 10 dB greater in lumberjacks with VWF than without VWF. With the same duration of ear protection the lumberjacks with VWF consistently had about a 10 dB greater NIPTS than those without VWF.

    NEW SEASON OF HGTV’S HIT SERIES ‘GOOD BONES’ SPOTLIGHTS DRAMATIC HOME RENOVATIONS AND FOLLOWS MINA STARSIAK HAWK’S IVF JOURNEY New Episodes Premiere Tuesday, June 9, at 9 p.m. ET/PT New York [May 12, 2020] Crumbling roofs, bug-infested walls and rotted floors are no match for HGTV’s popular mother/daughter duo Mina Starsiak Hawk and Karen E Laine in the new season of HGTV’s Good Bones, premiering Tuesday, June 9, at 9 p.m. ET/PT. In the series, which attracted more than 17.4 million total viewers in its last season, cameras follow Mina, a real estate agent and soon-to-be mom of two, and Karen, a lawyer, as they buy the most dilapidated properties in their favorite Indianapolis neighborhoods, demo them down to the studs and completely transform them into gorgeous, functional family homes. This season also spotlights very personal moments for both mother and daughter—Mina shares her emotional IVF journey that results in her second pregnancy while Karen announces she is retiring from the day-to-day operations of the family renovation business. “It’s been a very busy year renovating homes, opening our new storefront, navigating Mom’s retirement and dealing with the roller coaster of trying to get pregnant, all while raising a toddler,” said Mina. “I’m excited to share every step with our fans.” “I decided it was the right time to retire from our business, but I’ll still be renovating homes with Mina in the city we love,” said Karen. “The properties in this season are some of the best we’ve ever found.” In the premiere episode, Mina and Karen buy their most expensive house to date—a bungalow in the trendy Fountain Square neighborhood that needs serious updates.

Eleven of fourteen coprolite specimens showed good pollen preservation, acceptable pollen concentration, and diversity of both arboreal and herbaceous taxa, together with a number of non-pollen palynomorph types, especially fungal spores. Radiocarbon dating suggests that the coprolite collection derives from badger colonies that established setts and latrines inside the cavern over the last three centuries. The coprolite pollen record depicts a mosaic, anthropogenic landscape very similar to the present-day, comprising pine forests, Quercus-dominated formations, woodland patches with Juniperus thurifera, and a Cistaceae- dominated understorey with heliophytes and nitrophilous assemblages. Although influential, dietary behavior of the badgers does not preclude palaeoenvironmental
