Arsenic is a naturally occurring element that is found in soil, water, plants and animals. The properties of arsenic have been known since antiquity. In ancient times, it was used in a variety of potions of uncertain therapeutic value and was a favorite in various poison-for-hire schemes. In modern times arsenic has been used in a variety of applications including as a pesticide, as a wood preservative and in the semiconductor industry. It exists in two forms: organic and inorganic.
Inorganic and organic arsenic occur naturally in the environment, with inorganic forms being most abundant. Inorganic arsenic is associated with other metals in igneous and sedimentary rocks, and it also occurs in combination with many other elements, especially oxygen, chlorine, and sulfur. Organic arsenic contains carbon and hydrogen. It should be noted that inorganic and organic are not terms used to indicate pesticide usage, or even human activity, but rather the other metals and elements they are bound to. (Source)
Arsenic has been in food as long as humans have been consuming food. Because arsenic exists in the soil and water, incorporation into most plants and food, including rice, is inevitable. Some studies suggest that human activity can elevate arsenic levels. While arsenic is present in a wide array of foods, including flour, corn, wheat, fruit, poultry, rice and vegetables, as well as beer, wine, fruit juices and water, we support additional research into the pathways for arsenic to be absorbed by plants, and methods to reduce levels of inorganic arsenic in rice.
Because arsenic is a naturally occurring element in water and food, it is important for toxicologists to determine safe exposure levels. In epidemiological studies observing the effects of poor water quality, particularly in developing countries, scientists have found that high oral exposure to arsenic over time causes adverse health effects. For example, in wells containing arsenic levels of 2,000 ppb, studies showed that such high levels of arsenic exposure can cause negative health effects in various organs, especially the skin.
1 ppb = one part per billion, or 1µg (microgram or one millionth of a gram) of substance per liter of water. This is equivalent to one drop of water in a swimming pool, adding a pinch of salt to a 10-ton bag of potato chips or three seconds in a century.
Regulatory agencies protect the public health by establishing limits on contaminants in food. In the US, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is responsible for setting limits on contaminants in food. In general, these limits (called Maximum Limits or MLs) are set based on the principle of As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA).
ALARA stands for As Low As Reasonably Achievable and relates to the process of setting Maximum Limits (MLs). Let's say for example toxicologists determine that 50 ppb of chemical X is safe- it would not be expected to produce harm. But let's say that the food industry (growers and processors) is able to keep Chemical X below 10 ppb without disrupting the food supply. This is where the ALARA principle says the limit should be set at 10 ppb, as low as we can reasonably and reliably get it. Continue reading to learn more about safe food choices.
There are no limits (MLs) set by the FDA for total arsenic or inorganic arsenic in food. Codex, the arm of the United Nations that establishes standards for international trade in food, has not set an ML for arsenic in rice. The EPA has set a limit of 10 ppb inorganic Arsenic for drinking water and the FDA has set this same limit for bottled water. The question of what is a safe exposure limit for arsenic in food continues to be studied by regulatory agencies in the US and the rest of the world. We continue to actively monitor research on the issue of limits, and will share information with our consumers as this evolves. Continue reading to learn more about the process of setting a safe contaminant exposure limit.
At the levels we have seen, there does not appear to be a short-term risk for consumers of rice. The concerns that we see being raised have to do with the long-term effects of consumption of products with low levels of arsenic. One thing that we believe is helpful for all consumers is to eat a balanced diet, not only to have a well-rounded source of nutrition, but also to minimize long-term risks from consuming any one particular food. We also encourage all consumers to study the available information for themselves and reach their own conclusions, and have attempted to make this easier for consumers by bringing this information together through links on our Resource Library page. We also support the FDA's efforts to complete a health risk assessment as the next step in fully understanding the health impact of consuming minute amounts of arsenic.
FDA has been monitoring this issue for over 20 years, and increased their level of review about one year ago. FDA stated on September 6, 2013 that 'Rice is an important staple for many people, and the arsenic levels that FDA found in the samples it evaluated were too low to cause any immediate or short-term adverse health effects. All consumers, including pregnant women, infants and children, are encouraged to eat a well-balanced diet for good nutrition and to minimize potential adverse consequences from consuming an excess of any one food.'
Additionally, based on their data and available scientific research, FDA is not recommending changes by consumers regarding their consumption of rice and rice products. Eating a balanced and diversified diet that includes a variety of grains in order to ensure good nutrition is FDA's current advice for consumers.Read more here.
Based on their preliminary data and available scientific research, FDA is not recommending changes by consumers regarding their consumption of rice and rice products. Eating a balanced and diversified diet that includes a variety of grains in order to ensure good nutrition is FDA's current advice for consumers.
FDA also states there is currently, an absence of adequate scientific data to demonstrate causal relationship between rice and rice product consumption and the types of illness typically associated with arsenic.
The health benefits of rice and particularly brown rice, have been studied extensively over the years. There are a number of studies that demonstrate the positive health benefits of consuming brown rice, many of which you can find through our Whole Grains page. These should be considered when evaluating what one would substitute for rice and rice products in their diets.
For additional insights on dietary recommendations for addressing arsenic concerns, please check out Dietary Advice to Address Arsenic Concern by nutritionists Dr. Alan Greene, Ashley Koff and Dr. Oz.
All grains start life as whole grain. In their natural state growing in the fields, a whole grain is the entire seed of the plant (also called the kernel), consisting of three parts: the bran, the germ and the endosperm. Brown rice is a whole grain and contains the entire grain kernel, all three of its parts. White rice, considered a refined grain, consist only of the endosperm. The bran and germ, which is about 10-15% of the whole kernel, are removed in milling and processing.
Most of the data we have seen indicates that brown rice has 30-50% higher levels of inorganic arsenic than white rice. However, scientists have not determined why or how arsenic is distributed through-out the rice plant and kernel.
As to the question of whether you should change your consumption pattern, please consider:
We take the concerns of parents very seriously. The health of our consumers, including infants and children, is our highest priority. The FDA is developing a health risk assessment, which requires the analysis of much data and very complex interactions of diet, environment and behaviors. We continue to support that effort. Once the FDA's full health risk assessment is complete, it will be much easier for consumers to make informed decisions about this issue. In the meantime, we encourage consumers to evaluate the information that is available in published research, and make their own assessment regarding the food they feed infants, and the potential health effects of any alternative food they may choose.
Plants are what they eat. Arsenic is one of the most common elements found in the environment. It is naturally occurring, and can be found in most foods. The critical factor is the dose. The levels cited in research, and that our preliminary test results are showing, do not represent toxic levels. Additional research is needed to understand the uptake process in plants, such as rice, so that we can develop ways to minimize levels. Organic agriculture embraces natural systems of production, and we support continued research to utilize natural systems to minimize levels of inorganic arsenic in the food supply.
Arsenic is a naturally occurring element in soil and water. All plants take up arsenic, including fruits and vegetables, regardless of whether the farming method is conventional or organic. Organic agriculture embraces natural systems of production, and we support continued research to utilize natural systems to minimize levels of inorganic arsenic in the food supply.
What we mean by long-term effects is the health impact one would experience from ingestion of a material at a specific level over one's lifetime, which is generally assumed to be 70 years. In conducting risk assessments, regulators will look at how much one's risk of contracting disease is elevated by a life-time's exposure at a certain level. This is generally considered to be a conservative approach to quantifying risk, consistent with the mission of regulators to protect the health and safety of consumers. FDA is currently in the process of understanding the potential effects of long-term exposure to arsenic. To read FDA's statement on this assessment, please check out Next Steps on Arsenic and Rice.
We understand that many consumers have dietary restrictions due to existing health conditions, such as celiac disease and gluten intolerance, which lead them to consume more rice than most Americans.
Based on their data released Sept 6, 2013 and available scientific research, FDA is not recommending changes by consumers regarding their consumption of rice and rice products. Eating a balanced and diversified diet that includes a variety of grains in order to ensure good nutrition is FDA's current advice for consumers.
The FDA's next step is to conduct a comprehensive risk assessment, which will consider how much arsenic is consumed from rice and rice products, and whether there are variations in health effects for certain segments of the population. The draft risk assessment is ongoing and will be released to the public following peer review. Once it is completed, the assessment will help the FDA decide whether any further actions might be necessary.
We appreciate the position our consumers with restricted diets are in when reading reports raising concerns about the foods they have come to rely on. We support the rigorous scientific approach required in order to conduct a comprehensive risk assessment, as well as continuing research on methods to lower the levels present in food.
Our testing results, research, and consultation with other food producers, indicates that the brown rice syrup manufacturing process does not concentrate the level of inorganic arsenic. It appears that the level in the syrup is at the same level as the rice that was used to make the syrup.

Title IX opened up a world of opportunities for talented female athletes like professional basketball player Tamika Catchings.
In high school in Illinois and later Texas, she twice won state titles and player-of-the-year honors. As a freshman at the University of Tennessee, she helped lead the Lady Vols to a national championship.
A member of the Indiana Fever pro basketball team since 2001, she's been named an WNBA all-star seven times and defensive player-of-the-year an unprecedented four times. She won the league's most valuable player award in 2011. This summer she will compete in her third Olympic games for team USA.
Here are excerpts from a recent interview with Catchings on what it's been like to grow up with the support of Title IX.
Q: Tell us about your family. Your dad, Harvey Catchings, played 11 seasons in the NBA. You had an older brother, Kenton, who was a good basketball player. And like you, your sister, Tauja, also played in the WBNA.
TC: I was pretty much born into a basketball family. My father was in the latter part of his playing career when I was born, but I got to watch a little bit. I was in third grade when I played my first organized basketball. We were part of a parks and rec league, and our father was my sister's and my coach on an all-boy team. We played that first year and then ended up starting up a girls league after that. I was in seventh grade when I made the goal to play in the NBA.
Q: How was your dad as a coach?
TC: I loved that my dad wasn't going to take it easy on me because I was a girl. I was the ultimate tomboy growing up, so I thought that I could do anything a boy could do, even better. Once I made the commitment to play in the NBA, my dad pushed me like never before. But, he always gave me the option that if my goal ever changed and I didn't want to play anymore I didn't have too. I loved that about my dad.

Events focusing on urging lawmakers to extent middle-class tax breaks that are set to end if a solution to avert the fiscal cliff is not found by the end of the year were held in lower Bucks County on Monday.
The crowds gathered outside the building that houses Congressman Mike Fitzpatrick's office in Middletown and later on the streets of Bristol Borough.
Outside the congressman's office, a group of more than 50 gathered to speak about how decisions by Republican lawmakers have impacted their lives.
Later in the evening, many of the same people met at the Christmas tree on Mill Street in the borough to attend a "holiday-themed vigil," according to the group that organized the rally, Pa. Working Families.
Doylestown businessman Det Ansinn and Pastor James Evans of the Norton Avenue Baptist Church spoke at the evening event.

I was in San Francisco for a friends wedding yesterday. Walking around the city with a bunch of females means we had to stop in every Good Will store for some reason. After I few minutes I quickly realized there was stuff for me to play with too!
First, I discovered the old boombox's. There was a Panasonic very similar the to the one I had in College. Then I discovered two old toy keyboards. Both were in great cosmetic shaped and worked perfectly. They had batteries in them so I was able to jam out a bit.
The Casio SA-10 had a nice "Super Accompaniments" feature that lets you switch the drum presets with your left hand while playing sounds with your right. They wanted $9.49 for the SA-10 and after considering it's small size would allow it to fit in my carry on luggage I came very close to buying it.
The other keyboard called the "Techno-Beat Electronic Keyboard" has full size keys and was decked out it awesome bright blue and red plastic. It had five drum "pads" on it. I love the way this thing looks. I made my friend Leslie pose with the thing. I realized there must be people who collect these things. Then I realized I want to be one of them! The Techno-Beat was $14.99.
By some stoke of luck we got a phone call from my brother yelling at us because we were late to meet them so we had to run out of there empty handed. I have fond memories of a Casio MT-40 I owned a child. I think I want to leave it at that. These toy keyboards are fun to play with but I don't need a pile of junk in the studio. Am I wrong? Should I have bought these 80s wonders?

Cablevision Systems Corp. said that it was offering credits to customers unable to access their Optimum service.
Cablevision was joined by Verizon's FiOS and other cable giants in lowering bills in the wake of Hurricane Sandy, which knocked power out for millions in the New York metropolitan area.
"Many of our customers have been severely impacted by Hurricane Sandy," Kristin Dolan, Cablevision's senior executive vice president of product management and marketing, said in a statement. "In addition, customers will not be responsible for any damage to Cablevision equipment caused by the storm, and will be able to exchange damaged equipment at no cost."
Of the 1.3 million Cablevision subscribers without power, about 450,000 were on Long Island. Another 600,000 were in New Jersey.
FiOS, DirecTV and Dish Network have all implemented similar policies for their customers.
Verizon said it would replace damaged or missing equipment at no cost to the customer.
For more information on how to contact Cablevision, visit their Optimum website.

Plastic-foam food and drink containers in New York are set to go the way of trans fats and smoking in bars as the City Council voted to ban them in the name of environmental responsibility.
The Democratic-led, 51-member body passed the legislation unanimously Thursday in Manhattan. It prohibits restaurants, food carts and stores in the largest U.S. city from selling or providing single-use cups, clamshells and trays, as well as peanut-shaped packing materials, made from a type of thermoplastic petrochemical called expanded polystyrene.
An amendment gives officials a year to determine whether the substance can be recycled in an "environmentally effective, economically feasible and safe" way. If not, the ban will take effect as passed July 2015.
"This is a very important step forward to reduce the city's solid waste stream, to reduce the amount of products that are out there that are dangerous and literally living on for half a century in our landfills," Council Speaker Christine Quinn said at a City Hall news briefing prior to the vote.
The foam ban is part of a slew of initiatives to make New York healthier and more environmentally friendly from Mayor Michael Bloomberg, whose 12-year tenure ends Dec. 31. Calling for the "environmentally destructive" substance to "go the way of lead paint," Bloomberg proposed the idea in February alongside initiatives for more electric vehicles and a curbside food-composting pilot program.
Almost 100 cities and towns, including San Francisco, Seattle and Portland, have banned polystyrene food and beverage containers, according to the Natural Resources Defense Council.
New York's ban pitted closely held foam-maker Dart Container Corp. and Restaurant Action Alliance, a group backed by the American Chemistry Council, a trade group representing chemicals and plastics manufacturers, against Bloomberg and the 24 council members who co-sponsored the bill.
The foam doesn't biodegrade and can't be recycled, according to the mayor's office. It makes up an estimated 20,000 tons of the city's annual waste and contaminates the stream of recyclable metal, glass and plastics, the office says.
Dart, which is based in Mason, Michigan, dropped its opposition this month, while saying the legislation still "singles out and unfairly maligns a quality, cost effective and safe line of products."
A report funded by the American Chemistry Council valued annual sales of foam containers in New York at $97.1 million. It said the ban would in effect be an "environmental tax," forcing businesses and consumers to spend almost double on replacements including other plastics, coated paperboard and compostable materials.
The Bloomberg administration disagrees, saying "substantial research" it has conducted found the average cost difference per product would be $0.02.
Bloomberg, a Republican-turned-independent, is the founder and majority owner of Bloomberg News parent Bloomberg LP. Mayor- elect Bill de Blasio, D, takes office Jan. 1.

Canal Plus has posted a behind the scenes look at Dan's upcoming film Horns, in which he plays Ig Perrish, a grieving and www.fac.unb.br wrongly-accused young man who wakes up one morning to discover he has grown a set of link for you horns.
The video covers Ig's futile attempts to remove his horns through various means, and we get to hear Dan's rather good American accent as he talks to a snake. Much of the video is in French, but Dan's voice is left un-dubbed and subtitled.
Horns is tentatively scheduled for an Autumn release.
Thank you to Titch for letting us know about the www.alan-perlman.com video!
Out has released an interview with Dan from the March issue of the magazine, along with a gorgeous new photoshoot.
Speaking to Out's Aaron Hicklin, Dan discussed how he's always known it would be a long process to levitra canada cheap create a career that isn't defined by his role as Harry Potter – potentially a life-long one. "It's about proving to people that I'm in this for the long haul, and that I wasn't just looking to get as famous as I could for as long as I could and ride that out. I love almost every aspect of this industry and I want to be in it, and if I could drop dead on http://sedonaeventsalliance.com/generic-levitra a film set at 80, that's how I'd want to go."

Out has released a preview of Dan's interview and photoshoot for the March edition of the magazine.
When John Krokidas, the director of Beat-genesis movie Kill Your Darlings, approached Daniel Radcliffe to gauge his interest in playing Allen Ginsberg, he was struck by Radcliffe's humility. Although a marquee name whose involvement could guarantee the investment necessary to make the film, Radcliffe nevertheless insisted on a proper audition.
"I think he was nervous about whether I would want to audition or not, and so at my first meeting with him I said, 'I want to read, I want to audition,' because at this point in my career, I am aware that my name brings a certain kind of uk levitra cachet," recalls the actor, who is the face of Out's upcoming March cover. "I want to know that a director wants me for me, rather than for the cachet. I can see why people are skeptical about me playing Allen Ginsberg, because I don't look like him—although, neither does James Franco—and I'm English and middle class, and not from New Jersey, but that's what I think is so exciting about it, because people have no idea. I've always known I have potential to be a good actor, and I think more than a good actor, but I've also at times lacked the viagra brand tools and didn't have any training. When John was first auditioning me for Ginsberg, we hadn't even done the seventh Harry Potter yet, so I was 17 or 18, and he had nothing else to levitra from mexico go on apart from the fact that he'd seen me in Equus."
Director Krokidas recalls the audition as a revelation. "He [Radcliffe] wanted to make sure that the primary creative collaboration in the movie was going to be between me and pharmacy discount.com him, that our chemistry was going to be successful," he said. "In some Midtown corporate boardroom, the two of us read some lines from the script together, and wow—a lot of actors talk about colors of the rainbow and different facets of emotion in their performance, and Daniel showed me colors I'd never seen before—it was astounding."
Look for Out magazine on news stands in the next few days, or as a digital edition.

On LEDs and other small items
by Thomas EdelmannThe end of the traditional light bulb clobbered the luminaire industry, which is slowly recovering. At the Euroluce in Milan the clear trend was an effort to harmonize design and technology again.

Milan is here again
En route for Milan. It's that time of the year; the Milan furniture salon is just round the corner and the design world is in pandemonium. To give you an idea of the countless events throughout the city we have compiled a list of what we consider to be the most promising among them.
Luca Nichetto is one of the few Italian designers in the upcoming generation. Sandra Hofmeister talked to him about the life and death of his furniture, about new perspectives in Scandinavia and about the meaning and meaninglessness of national borders in design.

The second and third skin
by Markus FrenzlEven just a few decades ago the roles were clearly distributed: on the one side, the superficial and ephemeral world of fashion, and on the other the world of furniture design, which strives for timelessness and for durability. At this year's Salone in Milan, a surprising amount of cross-over between fashion and furniture was in evidence, as for instance. - How strong is the reciprocity between these two apparently so different disciplines today?

We always remain authenticTwo years ago, Foscarini and Diesel presented their first luminaire collection. Initially, the joint venture struggled owing to the fallout from the global economic crisis, but now it is receiving feedback from a recovering market. Sandra Hofmeister spoke to Carlo Urbinati about luminaires between product design and fashion design.
The architects and designers at Claesson Koivisto Rune in Stockholm designed the interior of the Nobis Hotel in Stockholm.

TRAVERSE CITY — Police haven't ruled out a new tip in the unsolved hit-and-run death of Traverse City bicyclist Kelly Ann Boyce.
Capt. Mike Ayling said the tip came from a mechanic outside Grand Traverse County who reported noticing something "suspicious" on a vehicle. He said detectives conducted a visual inspection of the vehicle and could request additional forensic tests.
"It's still not nothing," Ayling said.
Boyce, 29, died early July 5 after a motorist struck and killed her as she pedaled down Washington Street. More than 600 tips to police came from the public after Boyce's death, and Ayling said about 30 remain open.

Educator Effectiveness
Many factors influence the ability of children to thrive in school. Some factors are school-based, and some are personal. As researchers and educators attempt to identify the major influences on children's learning and unravel the associated complexities, one fact remains clear: every child deserves excellent teachers and building principals.
Indeed, the more factors in a child's personal life that present barriers to learning, the greater the need for excellent educators in that child's school. An Act to Ensure Effective Teachers and School Leaders was signed into law in 2012. But the law in and of itself cannot ensure effectiveness among educators. Such a promise requires a shared vision and commitment among all members of a school community--teachers, administrators, school board members, parents and students. In Maine we value the flexibility that allows individual communities to govern their schools according to the ideals of the local culture and the needs of the local children. We also value our educators.
The work of the Educator Effectiveness Office is to assist school administrative units in implementing performance evaluation and professional growth systems that place a premium on developing viable processes of identifying, maximizing, supporting and maintaining excellence among its teachers and principals.
Resources - Performance Evaluation and Professional Growth Systems
While the Department works to fully update this page, these and additional resources related to the development, implementation, and approval of teacher and principal evaluation systems will be made available via the Commissioner's Weekly Update and other publications.
- An Overview of PEPG System Requirements. (PDF, 722KB) This self-navigating slide presentation answers many questions about the requirements of a performance evaluation and professional growth system, providing the following information:
- The legal context and policy that informs system requirements
- A general overview of the Performance Evaluation and Professional Growth (PEPG) system components and rule requirements
- Details of the two required measures of educator effectiveness, Professional Practice and Student Learning and Growth
- Detailed analysis of the main features and functions of the SLOs (Student Learning Objectives)
- Various approaches to combining multiple measures to arrive at a summative rating
- A compilation of guidance articles that have been published in the Maine DOE newsroom
- MENU of MDOE Approved Professional Practice Models As part of Education Evolving: Maine's Plan for Putting Learners First, the Maine Department of Education has made it a priority to adopt state standards of professional practice for teachers and principals to be used in Performance Evaluation and Professional Growth (PE/PG) systems. The menu provides information about the adoption of the state standards and identifies models approved for use in PE/PG systems.
- Maine Schools for Excellence. The teachers at 45 schools in nine Maine districts are participating in two five-year teacher incentive grants that tie together intensive professional development, meaningful performance evaluations designed largely by teachers, incentives and stipends to reward educators for improved student performance, and performance-based pay systems--also designed largely by teachers. Many of the resources developed under the federal Teacher Incentive Fund grant are available free as downloads to districts who are not participating in the Teacher Incentive Fund grant.

- Educator & School Recognition. Maine is home to countless teachers, principals, superintendents, specialists and support staff who make the difference each day that allows students to succeed in their learning. The Maine DOE manages some award programs that recognize great educators and acts as a liaison between the sponsors of other award programs and the award recipients.
- Maine DOE Strategic Plan. The second core priority area of the Maine DOE's strategic plan is Great Teachers and Leaders.
Legislative Activity
- Ensuring an effective educator in every Maine classroom
- Notice of proposed new educator evaluation rule
- A public hearing will be held Wednesday, Nov. 13 from 9 to 11 a.m. in Room 500 of the Cross State Office Building, 111 Sewall Street in Augusta.

Furthermore, it can unravel the complex cell-cell interactions that control migration/homing and differentiation of cells during injury/repair and following transplantation. The Almeida-Porada laboratory is interested in investigating these basic biologic processes, using bone marrow and cord blood-derived stem cells as model systems, and translating the knowledge obtained to develop cell-based therapies for different organs/diseases. Specifically, we are delineating the pathways and the factors that govern stem cell expansion and differentiation into specific fates, by studying stem cells in their own microenvironment, at the niche level, and upon transplantation in injury and non-injury models. We are also devising techniques to improve the engraftment of transplanted cells through manipulation of the recipient's niches and modulation of the transplanted cells' immunogenicity. Collectively, we envision that the key information generated from each of the ongoing projects will provide the necessary tools for developing: 1) ways to obtain and expand non-immunogenic tissue-specific progenitor cells to be used in tissue engineering; and 2) new and safer approaches to cell therapy, including manipulation of stem cell niches to stimulate proliferation of endogenous stem cells, and/or facilitate engraftment and accelerate recovery after stem cell transplantation.

Somebody has been leaving rather elaborate and well thought out paper sculptures at Scottish libraries. Whatever their intended purpose might be, they rather expand the vocabulary of illustration, to my mind. And they are apparently intent on anonymity.

Water Delivery reviews in Federal Way
I had them deliver water for 2 years to our summer home. It took many phone calls to both start and stop delivery both summers. It got to the point that the regional manager had to intervene to get anything done.
In all fairness this issue may be a Flagstaff area problem. Even regional managers had difficulty getting the local managers to return phone inquiries.
I spent many hours on the phone trying to fix the situation, it cannot be fixed. I pay more for water now but do not have to waste time and frustration trying to deal with a rock of a system.
Save yourself the aggravation, go somewhere else.

There provider frequently missed water delivery. I would say that in the 18 months of having service with them, I called approximately 6 times to complain to get water delivered. They are awful. I would not use them again.
At first everything was great. Good quality water, nice delivery people. After a month or so, the delivery schedule was not adhered to and we ended up with a lot of extra empty bottles. We never knew when we would get a delivery. We ran out of distilled water at one point which is bad when you use it for a baby. The real issue began when we went to terminate service and scheduled them to pick up their items. We terminated due to a move out of state. They re-scheduled three times and still haven't picked up the cooler or extra bottles. I have called and called and no progress has been made. I even was hung-up on when I tried to talk to a manager.
Overall terrible scheduling and terrible customer service.
Overall terrible scheduling and terrible customer service.
They are real close to where we live. The great part is that they are flexible and will work with you if you need a payment extension, but the lady running that office can be quite rude.
we've used this company for two years and signed up through Costco. They started out professionally, delivered every two weeks, and had very nice drivers. They always called us the day prior to remind us to put our bottles on the porch and they usually arrived around the same time the next day. Then this past year, they have gone down hill very quickly. They told us they would start delivering once a month, so they gave us extra water. Then proceeded to deliver every two weeks. We ended up with way too much water. Then we started getting phone calls that they would be there on Thursday, but no show, and another phone call on Friday that the truck broke down and we received our delivery on Saturday. Now, we get a reminder call, but no one shows up at all. we've had to call a few times to tell them to come because we have run out of water and they always tell us the truck broke down. Then they ask us to stick to the original agreement of 2-3 bottles of water, which was fine when they came every two weeks, but we have to complain it's been 5 weeks and we need more. We are now canceling our service with them. It's been five weeks again, our empty bottles have been sitting on our porch for two weeks, and we are almost out of water.
Everyone I spoke to was friendly, professional and helpful (I called several times with additional questions). The delivery was on time and perfect, and I am very happy with the water and the service.
They will scope the main pipe out to the connector in the middle of the road and determine what is causing the clog. They have been very quick to explain what needs to be done.
They were VERY unreliable. They never came on their schedule and the local delivery guy was completely disconnected from the "800" customer service and website. I tried to complain about delivery schedules not met and they just delivered the wrong products on the wrong day. Their service is all about on time and correct product. Neither was received.
To add insult to injury, they wanted to charge me the "energy" surcharge to pick up the water coolers.
This company has no clue.

Private student loans account for $150 billion of the $1 trillion in total student loan debt in the country, according to the first annual report from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's student loan ombudsman.
The report found that many loan servicers -- the companies that collect the payments -- make it extremely difficult for student borrowers to manage their debts. Borrowers often have trouble finding out how much they owe or getting information about their payment histories. Slipshod loan servicing makes private student loans even riskier by increasing the chance that people will fall behind on payments.
The federal government needs to open up refinancing and debt relief opportunities for these people, as it did for some mortgage holders. And borrowers who might be eligible for federal loans should be advised to examine that option before plunging headlong into private debt.
-- The New York Times, Wednesday

I have been training for number of years and have always used ez curl barbell curls and concentration curls for my bicep workout. I want to ad alternating dumbbell curls and was wondering if i should do them befor or after barbell curls? any input?
i have always done BB before DB - it just seems to work better this way but I dont know the explanation of why.
I have always found that a single limb movement allows for greater concentration and contraction...perhaps this has something to do with it.
It doesn't really matter. Do whatever you prefer...
shocker who is Hunter S Thompson?
Biceps are the only thing that doesn;t have set exercises each week, purely because i couldn;t give a rats ass, so for that reason i kinda agree with gopro.

Doesn't really matter what you do for Biceps. It's a weird muscle. It responds do so many of the exercises in similar ways. I just do whatever.
It's like I'm a juicer... but I'm not.
I do any exercise that keeps the tension high on the bicep all the way through the exercise. ie no preacher curls.
i go for chris mason when he says about using a straight bar over E-Z bar as it keeps the tension on the bicep better at the bottom of the movement due to the wrist grip.
my exprience - joined gym 10 years ago, 6 1/2 years hard weight training exprience.
Hunter S. Thompson is a famous writer. I wrote my senior project in college about him. There have been several movies about him, 1 with Bill Murray playing him and the other with Johny Depp as him. Those are 2 pretty big stars here in the United States.
