"Unemployed and 62". I got the word Thursday about midmorning. Many things going thru my mind. The positions I have held thru the years after graduating with an AA in "Drafting and Design Technology" in 1973 are: Design Draftsman, Senior Designer, Machine Designer, Design Engineer, Manufacturing Engineer and Laser Nester/Draftsman. Unfortunately my cognitive function has diminished along with only the partial control of my clinical depression. I went to Job Service before I went home and got enrolled and updated in their system. That was an ordeal as their system was not functioning as it should and I had to do repetitive entries as the existing information could not be modified, so I had to enter it from scratch. Through the years, I have done almost all my own mechanic, plumbing and electrical work as well as numerous construction projects. I am trying to figure out what that experience would do for me to help pay the bills. My son left factory work last summer and went to Truck Driving School. That is a possibility, but I am not sure that is what I want to do. I need to see what programs they have available for retraining. I was not surprised that I was let go, but 5 others were also sent away. Three departments and ages ranging from about 22 to almost 80 for a part timer. Last years sales were way down from previously and the first quarter is over with little short term hope to turn around anytime soon. The things, I need to get going on are getting my Income Tax information gathered up. With the passing of my wife last year, it is going to be pretty complicated. She passed a year ago tomorrow. That and updating my resume, and getting my contacts updated. Another major issue is finding Health Insurance. I guess I need to multitask on these issues. I welcome all suggestions, well wishes and prayers. Thanks, Roy

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
