That is one thing I've always had a hardline stance against, well that and theft. I will never know why some women tolerate a physically violent significant other, but they do.
Years back while working in the construction industry, in our office, there was a woman in accounting, that came in with 2 black eyes, said a car accident, air bag went off. Okay, soon there after, it happens again. Now the partners in the company were alarmed, very concerned and let her know of their support in anything she needed to get out of this situation. She was a very nice person, co-worker, with a pleasant personality, attractive and had a son from a previous marriage whom was also dealing with this. She says she loves the man whom is abusing her, just can't end it, and this is what gets me, a person will stay committed to such abuse. It kept going on. Seeing this womans battered face started to become disturbing, everyday after being in the field dealing with the ironworkers I would come to the office to do my work, just could not concentrate knowing what was going on, yet you can't do a darned thing. I marched into the office, told the partners, if the offending jerk ever steps foot into this office, (as he would pick her up sometimes) law or no law, I'll take care of it, just like I take care of any other business at hand, I used to have a way about me, could care less who I told what, owner/CEO does not matter, still like that today, he also knew I would get it done, just like the work I did. I used to handle and deal with jerks in the business for them, this guy was not going to be any different.
Don't you know, she finally ended up getting some help and out of that situation, I left the company around that time, but it sure was good to know that she was no longer being violently abused.
Personally, I cannot believe the things I see in the news today, what people do to one another is hard to believe, most of the time over nothing. I always said whats the point of arguing and fighting, when in a 1/2 hour you won't remember what you're fighting over LOL!

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
