    Stan Schwartz took his last breath this afternoon at 2:48 EDT at Hospital in Evansville Indiana, He had a battle with lung cancer and is survived by his wife and children

    Latest update, while in hospital they found her gall bladder is enlarged and full of stones, but due to her other issues they cannot operate because she will bleed out, so she is likely to die from that rupturing before the cancer finishes her, they transferred her to hospice and have her drugged up to deal with the pain

    My sister Tammy lives near Dallas Tx, She in the hospital. She has stage 4 pancreatic cancer, and she was attacked a few days ago, beaten badly and was being strangled when the police arrived. Her attacker is in jail for attempted murder. If she manages to get out of hospital she will go to hospice. She is at the end now. She forgave her attacker.

    IFI gets $10 per book sold through the site from me, buying from Amazon or directly from my publisher does not send anything to IFI, and very little to me to be honest. so order from your local Lulu outlet, and send IFI a donation directly, you still save money

    I remember the first time a new apprentice saw me do hot connections on a service entrance, He asked how I turn the power off to do it, and I told him we dont... The look on his face when I grabbed the line and stripped off some insulation to make the splice LOL

    trick to stainless is go slow, lots of lube/coolant and be prepared to replace tooling often

    For a single motor, size conductors at least 125% of the motor Full Load Current rating as listed in Table 430.247 of the NEC, that means a max of 28 amps is needed, its always a good idea to have a little overhead available in the lines and not run at max rating, so I would use #8 AWG wire if I were installing it, but #10 is perfectly fine, safe and legal
