The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive is now UK law. The legislation aims to make producers pay for the collection, treatment and recovery of waste electrical equipment. The regulations also mean that suppliers of equipment like high street shops and internet retailers must allow consumers to return their waste equipment free of charge.
The amount of WEEE we throw away is increasing by around 5% each year, making it the fastest growing waste stream in the UK. � Much of the UK�s WEEE ends up in landfill, where the lead and other toxins it contains can cause soil and water contamination. This can have a harmful effect on natural habitat, wildlife and also human health. � Many electrical items that we throw away can be repaired or recycled. Recycling items helps to save our natural finite resources and also reduces the environmental and health risks associated with sending electrical goods to landfill.
Distributors of new Electric and Electronic Equipment (EEE) have a part to play in reducing the amount of WEEE going into landfill sites. Leekes is obliged under these regulations to offer our customers free take-back of their WEEE on a like-for-like basis when they buy a new Electrical or Electronic product from us.
For example, if a customer bought a new fridge from us we would accept their old fridge and prevent it going into a landfill site by disposing of it safely. Customers must return their WEEE item to us within 28 days of purchasing their new item.
Under the WEEE Regulations, all new electrical goods should now be marked with the crossed-out wheeled bin symbol shown below:
Goods are marked with this symbol to show that they were produced after 13th August 2005, and should be disposed of separately from normal household waste so that they can be recycled.

It is so noted in Wikipedia:
systemd is a replacement for the Linux init daemon (either System V or BSD-style). It is intended to provide a better framework for expressing services' dependencies, allow more work to be done in parallel (concurrently) at system startup, and to reduce shell overhead.
Thus far, there seems to be a division in adoption. My Distro, Fuduntu, a fork of Fedora 14, does not employ systemd. I tried to reach +Andrew Wyatt for comment who was not available, but was lucky to find on a Saturday +Shawn W Dunn one of the Fuduntu analysts who gave this comment regarding systemd:
Systemd, whether by design, or circumstan[Edit-- Last minute, +Andrew Wyatt, Fuduntu founder, came through with this comment:
ce, is largely becoming non-option al. Inclusion of core technologi es such as dbus and udev are reducing choice for linux users and developers , rather than expanding them--which is the very antithesis of the idea of Free/Open Source software.
ConsoleKit + UDev + Syslog + DBus + Polkit + Sysinit + this + that. RedHat Enterprise Systemd is the best product we've ever been force fed. We are facing being forced to integrate it at Fuduntu because it's replacing so many core tools now that it's impossible to continue the project without it.
Those "idiots" that don't like binary logs aren't "idiots", some of us actually have some idea of what we are talking about, but what do I know..]
This Wikipedia list shows some that have gone head-long into adoption:
- Frugalware since Frugalware 1.5[7]
- Arch Linux since October 2012[11]
- Chakra Linux since October 2012[12]
- Uses parallelization, a lot of it
- That means that some daemons are started simultaneously, which means boot time should be faster.
- Has a convenient API
- systemd supports DBus and sockets, so you can easily control it and talk to it from your own code
- The unit syntax is way simpler
- For most cases, all you need to do is start a daemon on boot and kill it on shutdown. Old bash-based init systems need a large piece of boilerplate code to do that, but systemd doesn't. A common unit syntax is also easier to work with for developers, because you only need to support one init system, and not tons of <something> init derivatives, OpenRC and whatnot.
- Integrated logging
- As an init binary, systemd knows more about other processes than, e.g. syslog, so it can log data in a more convenient way. For example, you can get logs for a specific process, unit or target. You can also add additional information to the log if your code uses systemd's library.
- Everything in one package
- Currently, systemd has a lot of features in a single package. QR codes for log verification, a built-in HTTP server, json serialization, you name it. This means a lot of dependencies that are not actually needed. Lennart promised to split those out into separate packages later, but no one knows when 'later' is going to come.
- Not POSIX compliant
- systemd uses things that are exclusive to Linux, so it can't be used on *BSD systems. This makes *BSD people unhappy. If you use Linux, you can probably ignore this.
- It is forced aggressively
- As much as I like it (and yes, I like it), seeing GNOME enforce systemd as a strict dependency is just wrong. Also, see the previous point.
- Lennart
- I'm not sure if his personality is a valid point, but he seems to take a 'I'm right and fuck y'all' stance in some cases, and I don't really like it. Also it's quite common for his code to be really buggy (see early systemd/pulseaudio), but it's not really imporant any more now that a quite large team is working on systemd.
Marching to the beat of a different drum.
As a perhaps relevant side-note, systemd is (imho) the new pulseaudio: it breaks things that were working (which is bad) to bring new features we couldn't get at with the old system (the intentions are good). It is not particularly easy to use, it is easy to get wrong and it is hard to debug when things go wrong. We've experienced all sorts of wonderful things during its short tenure inc triggering kernel panics.
Anecdote time: We use systemd in Plasma Active images (for various reasons I won't get into here). Recently we ran into an inexplicable set of crashes. Turned out one of our systemd service files had an empty line at the end of it, and systemd does not put up with that. It just simply skipped over this offending file and a critical service was not being started. There was nothing in the logs to note this was happening, or any hints in the documentation. We found the "solution" out the hard way, and I'm still baffled that a blank line should even matter.
Even more fun is how tightly welded specific versions of systemd are to specific versions of the kernel .. which on devices can be "fun" as kernel versions that are supported for a given SoC are often (sadly) limited.
The foundational ideas behind systemd, borrowed from another OS, are sound ... but the implementation is simply not there yet and I sense it is overreaching too early in the game in places (e.g. also taking on logging infrastructure).
I suspect it needs a "Colin Guthrie" type figure; Colin imho rescued pulseaudio, moving it out of the 7th level of hell into a slightly chillier level of hell .. pulseaudio is still a cranky bitch at times, but it works tolerably relative to prior incarnations since Colin began working to make it so.
So on the one hand, I'm rooting for systemd. On the other, I wish it would stop sucking .. and I really wish it had a different set of developers working on it.

Fear of Hypoglycemia in Parents of Children with Type 1 Diabetes Associated with Poor ControlPosted: Sunday, January 24, 2010
The association between a higher level of hypoglycemic-related fear and parental emotional distress and poorer glycemic control in the child emphasizes the need for programs to support and guide parents.
To analyze, in a population-based study, the association between parental fear of hypoglycemia and (i) the prevalence of hypoglycemia and diabetes treatment factors in children with Type 1 diabetes and (ii) emotional distress in mothers and fathers.
Mothers (n = 103) and fathers (n = 97) of 115 children with Type 1 diabetes (1ØC15 years old) participated in the study. In addition to demographic and disease-specific data, the participants completed the Hypoglycemia Fear Survey -- Parent version (HFS-P) (worry and behavior subscales) and the Hopkins Symptom Checklist -- 25 items (HSCL-25) to measure emotional distress.
The results showed a higher HFS-P worry score was associated with higher glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), a higher frequency ("Ż 7) of what parents experienced as problematic hypoglycemic events during the past year and co-morbid disease in the child. A higher HFS-P behavior score was associated with children receiving insulin injections compared with using an insulin pump and a higher frequency ("Ż 7 per day) of blood glucose measurements. The mothers had higher scores than the fathers in both the worry and behavior subscales. The mothers' and the fathers' HFS-P worry scores correlated significantly with their HSCL-25 scores.
From the results it was concluded that the association between a higher level of hypoglycemic-related fear and parental emotional distress and poorer glycemic control in the child emphasizes the need for programs to support and guide parents. The results suggest that future interventions should target both the parents' fear and appropriate ways to prevent hypoglycemia in children with Type 1 diabetes.

About Me High-end Shopper
Comments about Blinds Steve's Exclusive Collection Wood Blinds 2" Slat 2" Slat Paints and Stains:
We've ordered 7 blinds of various sizes. We have had problems with 3 of them and its been one thing or another. [...], One pull cord (lift) would not stay locked (replacement part sent). 3, Not clear information on web page when ordering valance. We intended to order an inside mount blind with an outside mount valance. We got this combination right on 5 of the 7, but 2 of them got ordered wrong. The customer service would not make an execption and replace the valance to the outside mount type. The web page is not clear when ordering this combination and it would have been nice if customer service recognized this and agreed to replace with the correct valance as a customer service courtsey.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

About Me Midrange Shopper
i like the wand feature better of hunter douglas in controlling the blinds. mine have 3 string feature which is more difficult to operate. the price point however makes up for that!
Superior price and product!
By Jim

Does all we expect of the product as my review states.
"Good quality for the price."
By howloh
from Lake George, CO
We had ordered 6 blinds previously before my last order that looked great. I ordered 4 more of the same blinds but my husband had a hard time installing them this time especially one. Once installed they looked great. We do have one new blind with one slat that is a bit warped though. Other than that they all look great and help keep out the sun.
Can't ask for a better blind!
By LB
from Lees Summit, MO
We ordered 3 of these wood blinds for a triple pane window. I wasn't sure how they would look hung side by side because there is no woodwork trim in between each blind. I was overjoyed when we got them hung! The blinds hang perfectly straight and were precisely the perfect length and width. The "mink" stain was exactly like the sample and has a rich look. It has made my living room look very warm and inviting!
Plan on purchasing more

If you order the routless blind, there is an extra control that I wasn't aware of. Maybe would of not got it routless and saved having an extra control string.
These blinds are great!
By Topcat
from Souderton, PA
I replaced the windows in my home and the depth was less than before when I used Graber inside mount blinds. I tried Steve's Blinds using the outside mount version and I think they are better than the more expensive Graber blinds. Delivery is very fast and so far, after one year, the quality is better. Some of the Graber blinds cracked in a short time, but Steve's have not yet.
Complete Satisfaction!
By Scriptwriter
from Washington, DC
The routless option is terrific for not only blocking and controling light but also for privacy. The quality and color of my wooden blinds matches the woodwork in my home so well that they added that special touch to my family room.As a budget shopper, I am extremely happy with beauty and quality of my wooden blinds.
Great blinds, great price
By L. B.
from Orange County, CA
SOOOO much better than miniblinds! They look great, are easy to maintain, amd easy to operate. The prices here made it a no-brainer to make the switch from the ugly blinds that came with the house. I will keep replacing the rest of the windows a little at a time.

Nice quality
By budget designer
from snohomish Wa
I have purchsed from steves many times before my old home and now for my new home, I Have always had super results, this time however I ordered the wood blinds but they did not include hardware to hang them. I contacted customer service they said they would send them out next day, I waited about two weeks still nothing, finally almost a month later I got the hardware to hang them. Thats my only complaint.

I purchased wood blinds for my entire house. My shipment arrived sooner than expected and the blinds were exactly what I had hoped for. Because they are of such high quality, they have enhanced the look of every room in my home. This is my second time to order from this website and I would not hesitate to do so again. I would definitely recommend your company to my friends!

Was missing a couple brackets from order, called and parts were shipped same day.Later we found a total of 6 slats that had warped,called service dept. they ordered new slat replacements. This is a Co. that stands behind their products 100%, would recommend to every one looking for blinds,you would not go wrong. Best money spent.The service Reps were great to deal with, what a pleasure!!!.
Great product, great price!
By Allison
from Pen Argyl Pa
I was pleasantly surprised with the look and quality of these blinds. They look great and block an annoying "dusk to dawn" light that my neighbor has mounted on the outside of his house. The cost was the reason I purchased from this company, I will definitely purchase from Steve's Blinds again. The blinds arrived quickly and the condition of the boxes showed no damage from the shipping company.
Great product

Raising and lowering isn't perfect, but I've not had any blinds that were perfect in that way.

Wanted to darken the room, quickly and economically with some natural element such as wood. The blinds we bought will omplimant my drapery fabric when installed.
By Irish Eyes
from Chicago area, Illinois
Wanted white towards the outside and navy blue inside but was not available - live with condo assoc. rules would have loved different colour available for inside - settled for all white.Love the slats that allow them to be removed for easy cleaning. A lot lighter in weight that what was removed - much better. Rod to tilt is big improvement too.
Very nice blinds
By Sophie

The bulletin of Atlanta University
|1 of 4
This page
Loading content ...
Number 171 Atlanta, Georgia March, 1907 Negro Crime and Its Cure The reports of the Atlanta University Conference would probably reach a wider reading public if they were more popular in method and in style of publishing. Rev. Dr. Wilmer, rector of St. Luke's Church in this city, and one of our Trustees, has popularized the last issued report in an address before the Sociological Society. Using the Atlanta riots as a text for his address, Dr. Wilmer unqualifiedly and vigorously condemns the lynch law, showing that it is utterly futile as a de- terrent of crime. He urges a dispassionate consideration of the facts, the better to learn the right method of preventing crime and dealing with criminals. In discussing the causes of crime he quotes directly from the Atlanta Conference Report, commending its list of the Faults of the Negroes in these words: "Bearing in mind that this analysis of the Negro is made by educated Negroes themselves, does it not appear that there is a commendable lack of attempt to "whitewash" their own race? Does not the analysis breathe the scientific spirit, born of a desire to get at the truth? This ought to make us at least patient toward what the same sociological students say of the whites in the same connection." Under the head of The Cure of Crime, Dr. Wilmer quotes the "Appeal to Whites" of the Conference and comments on it: The conference appeals to the white people of Georgia for six things: Fairer criminal laws; justice in the courts; the abolition of state traffic in crime for public revenue and private gain; more intelligent methods of punishment; the refusal to allow free labor to be displaced by convict labor, and finally, a wider recognition of the fact that honest, intelligent, law-abiding black men are safer neighbors than ignorant, underpaid serfs, because it is the latter class that breeds dangerous crime. "Is there anything in that appeal that is unreasonable? And, on the whole, do not these extracts from "A Social Study," made almost entirely by colored men, suggest that we may gain help in protecting our own race from Negro crime by working in conjunction with the best Negro minds?" This address is of peculiar interest because it is delivered by a Southern white man to Southern white people. On this account also it is especially gratifying to us, for we can have no greater encouragement than testimony to the fact that our neighbors appreciate the work which we are doing. Our printing office has issued the address in leaflet form, and we shall gladly send it to any who wish to read it. Ex=Governor Northen's Campaign for Law and Order In a recent letter to the Atlanta Georgian and News Ex-Governor Northen reports the progress of his work, under the auspices of the Business Men's Gospel Union, looking to the better adjustment of the relations between the races in the State. He has visited seventy-three counties in the interest of this cause. In all but three he has received hearty support. For political reasons, however, he finds it hard to gain the general support of the daily press in the State outside of Atlanta. The Home Herald, the Savannah Press, and the Atlanta papers stand heartily with the Governor, but other papers fail to give him the editorial support which his worthy efforts merit. One editor, whose name he does not give, writes, "You are exactly correct in mentioning the gravity of the race problem as affects the future welfare of Georgia. We have considered, and still do, that in the race problem, silence is golden." But without the help of polititians or papers the work goes forward encouragingly. In the seventy counties which have responded, the best and most conservative business men are giving their services on committees for the prevention of all lawlessness and crime. It is the purpose to have these committees cooperate with similiar committees among the Negroes in a civic league to preserve law and order. We wish Governor Northen all success in this noble undertaking to which he is devoting himself with such earnestness, and trust that he will be able through the forces at his command so to mould public opinion that it will be to the advantage of both papers and polititians to flock to his standard. Mistaken Identity The March Scroll quotes the following amusing item from the Ladies' Home Journal, remarking that it is of interest to us because the Johnson side of the firm of Cole and Johnson is represented by two brothers, both of whom were formerly students at Atlanta University and one of whom, J. W. Johnson, is a graduate of the class of 1894. An intelligent Southern woman, judging from her handwriting and the appearance of her letter, writes: "Our local paper says you have accepted a musical composition by------------, of this city. He is a Negro, and I protest against having Southern music portrayed by a Negro. No Negro can reflect correctly the music of our people. Negroes do not know the finer musical feelings of the Southern people. Portray our music, yes : we will welcome it. But it must be done by white people: do it as you did in the compositions of Southern Negro life of Cole and Johnson. They came very close to being classics of their kind: we accept them gladly and unreservedly as good musically and as correctly reflective. But no Negro can do this!" Peonage Defined by Attorney General In answer to a resolution regarding the expenditures of the national department of justice in prosecuting peonage cases in Florida, Attorney General Bonaparte has made a statement from which we quote the following: The crime in question amounts substantially to selling into or retaining in involuntary servitude persons who fail to pay alleged debts, which pretended debts are often fictitious, extortionate, or fraudulent. Such action not only involves a flagrant violation of the statute law and of constitutional rights, but is repugnant to the enlightened opinion of modern times in all civilized countries. Moreover, the testimony taken in recent cases, and other credible information furnished the department, show that the treatment of these captives is often brutal and revolting to every instinct of humanity. In view of these facts, the department has felt confident that it would receive a cordial support from the congress and from the public opinion in doing all that might lie in its power to prevent crimes of this nature and to bring those guilty of them to adequate punishment. Rev. E. J. Penney, '76, was with us one morning in February and conducted the morning chapel exercises.

Finance degrees provide a wide variety of skills for practical application in the working world. Typically, finance students learn about financial investments, risk analysis, and securities investments, in addition to developing a comprehensive understanding of overall financial management theories and practices. Graduates of an online degree program in finance may have a wealth of career opportunities, as finance managers are needed at some point by nearly every kind of business, corporation, organization, and private client there is.
Online finance degrees are available at undergraduate as well as graduate levels. Depending on the granting institution, general accounting degrees sometimes offer curriculum almost identical to that of a finance degree. Generally, finance degrees focus on money management, while accounting degrees may provide a broader education in collecting, organizing, and calculating financial figures and records. Online finance degree course work typically introduces the basics at the bachelor's level, and master's degree curriculum allows students to specialize in areas like financial analysis or financial planning, for example.
A college education in finance can provide lasting and lucrative job prospects. As there are always a variety of hiring institutions seeking the talents of a skilled finance expert, most employers accept a bachelor's degree in this subject as a qualifier for an entry-level job. A degree in finance may be an especially attractive attribute for those looking to stand out among other job candidates holding a general accounting degree.
Graduates with an undergraduate degree in finance may be eligible for entry-level jobs as financial analysts, loan officers, or securities sales agents, to name a few. With an advanced degree, candidates may be able to pursue jobs as financial managers, or related occupations in business or accounting. Some employers offer professional training or enrichment programs to encourage employee advancement.

Questions and Answers
Got a question about the 2014 DeMarini CF6: DXCF8 Fastpitch? Ask our team of experts, and they will respond within 24 hours.Ask A Question
Is this bat legal to use in Virginia High School Softball and could you provide a list of bats that are legal?
Yes, the 2014 DeMarini CF6: DXCF8 Fastpitch bat will be legal for high school play across the nation. It will have the most updated USSSA stamp on the barrel. Instead of listing thousands of bats here, just look for the most updated USSSA stamp on the bat. It looks like a small thumbprint and will say USSSA certified.
Do you ship to HK? If yes, how and what's the charge?
I am sorry, but we only ship here within the United States.
Will the CF6 BBCOR have the diffusion handle like the Insane when it comes out in the fall?
The CF6 BBCOR will not have the diffusion handle like the DeMarini Insane. The 2014 DeMarini CF6: DXCF8 Fastpitch also does not feature the diffusion handle.
Product Description
New for 2014! If we said that this bat was as hot as it looked, we'd be doing it a disservice. It's much, much hotter than that. Ready to bust loose, this year's CF6 is the hottest composite fastpitch bat out of the wrapper that DeMarini has ever produced. That's due to the all new Paradox Composite barrel and handle on this two-piece design. Paradox Composite makes the barrel stronger, while being scientifically shaped to feel softer on impact. This makes for a bigger, hotter, and more responsive sweet spot and consistently more powerful swings! The Paradox handle is designed stiff so that players can get an even better feel for the sweet spot, while continuing to produce a powerful, consistent swing. The CF6 features Stacked Double Wall Construction that creates a trampoline effect across the entirety of the barrel for completely optimized performance. At the end of the barrel, a Clutch End Cap dampens vibration for an incredibly smooth swing. If you're at the top of your game and demand the absolute best, it's the CF6 or nothing! DeMarini: Born Hardcore! The CF6 is approved for play in ASA, USSSA, NSA, ISA, and ISF. It is backed by a Full Twelve (12) Month Manufacturer's Warranty. Free Shipping!

The Volvo Ocean Race is an extreme sailing race. The demands put on boats and equipment are enormous. So the maintenance after every leg and the preparation before each start have to be meticulous. Now, Volvo Penta opens up the pit lane with the blog "Engines and Sails".
Volvo Penta invented the high-performance diesel sterndrive in 1977 and has been the undisputed market leader in this constantly expanding segment ever since. The latest addition confirms this position: a 400 hp version of the D6 engine, matched with a refined DPH Duoprop drive – the world's most powerful diesel sterndrive.
Volvo Penta IPS, by far the most successful pod system for planing hulls, will now also be available for trawler yachts and other semi-planing boats. Volvo Penta has further developed six diesel models to handle boats with top speeds between 20 and 30 knots.
There is a new addition in Volvo Penta's range of electronic controls: side-mounted control for single inboard installations. The control is symmetrical in design, so that it can be installed on starboard or port side. Operation is smooth and precise with comfortable grip.
This summer Volvo Penta takes one of its test boats around five countries in the Baltic to show the benefits of the ingenious IPS high-performance pod system with forward facing propellers. Follow the trip on the web via the Baltic trip blog.
Rovos Rail is a company that offers luxury train "journeys of distinction" through Africa in style and comfort. The wood-panelled coaches are refurbished and remodelled to peak condition and offer all the luxury amenities of a 5 star hotel establishment.
Now when summer is approaching Volvo Penta has received the first firm order for TAD1362VE Stage 3b engines from the company Schmidt Winterdienst- und Kommunaltechnik GmbH. The Volvo Penta engines will power the TJS 560 (Towed Jet Sweeper), the conventional version of the Green TJS 560 C (shown on picture below). This is the world's first CO2 neutral snow removal machine.
Putzmeister Concrete Machines, India is a global player and growing very strong in concrete machinery segment in India. Volvo Penta India supplied the first lot of TAD620VE pilot engines order during 4th Quarter of 2010 for their stationery concrete pump model BSA 1409D and truck mounted concrete boom pump model BSF 36.
For a number of weeks every year customers and dealers are invited to Sweden for participation at The Volvo Days. An impressive demo-show at the Customer Center is one of the highlights. At Customer Center the guests also have the opportunity for test driving supported by instructors.
Since May, Volvo Penta's engine plant in Vara in Sweden has been powered without using any fossil fuel whatsoever. As a result, the plant is now operated completely carbon neutral.

- Description
GNC Pro Performance® XR Series™ Creatine Advance XR™
- 5000mg, 6 Form Creatine Blend Fuels Muscle Energy & Hydration*
- OT2™ with Immediate & Sustained 6 Hour Extended Release *
GNC's superior Pro Performance® XR Series™ Creatine Advance XR™ product is a dual-release formula with technology – enhancement that extends the release of creatine, a key building block shown to support improved strength and performance.* GNC'S recently created Optimal Timing Technology - OT2™ - was designed for immediate and 6 hr sustained release creatine. Creatine provides support for energy production during exercise and helps your muscles make and circulate ATP for quick, intense activity.br>
OT2™ is GNC's intelligent nutrient delivery system engineered to help release key ingredients during crucial times when you need them most! These breakthrough products are designed to deliver immediate and sustained release of ingredients to help maintain benefits throughout your workout, day or night. OT2™ ingredients are coated with a special technology that controls when they are released.
These special actives may be seen in the product- now that's a real technology you can see and feel! With the introduction of the unique, sustained-release technology, now muscle fueling creatine is released for up to six hours!
The full muscle building potential of a GNC product is based on its total nitrogen content- so the more nitrogen a product has, the stronger it will perform. Nitrogen needs increase during training, and if nitrogen levels are low, your body pulls from muscle stores which can result in catabolism, poor performance and longer recovery. To fuel performance and anabolism, Pro Performance® Creatine Advance XR™ is loaded with 10 grams of nitrogen-boosting ingredients.
Notice: Significant product settling may occur.

Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.

Sweet Seaside Memories
From dining to weddings, we are sharing all of the latest and greatest happenings at L'Auberge Del Mar on L'Blog, and we want your input too! Share anything you like, from your favorite L'Auberge experience to a fun Del Mar happening. We'd love to hear from you.

Sweet Beats at the Opening Day After-Party
Just 8 days until the horses hit the track...where are you celebrating on the big day? We have just the place.
The Opening Day After-Party at L'Auberge Del Mar is shaping up to be the party of the night. Sweet eats from KITCHEN 1540, killer cocktails from San Diego's leading mixologists...oh, and did we mention the view? It gets better: the areas best DJ's have come on board to serve up the sweetest beats, just for you.
Known for his multi-genre love of music, DJ FishFonics, a SoCal favorite, will be mixing it up with an ocean view on the Pacific Terrace. Joining him will be three-time winner of the San Diego Music Award for Best DJ, DJ Gabe Vega. This gent blends in his local San Diego roots to create the sweetest sounds and suffice to say, we can't wait to hear what these two come up with.
For the fine folks sipping lovely libations from Bleu Bar, we have a special treat. DJ Noel 2033 and sidekick Chuck Prada (you just might know him as the Black Eyed Peas' incredible percussionist) will be spinning poolside on the Ocean Terrace.
No matter where you end up at the Opening Day After-Party, it's certain to be fabulous. To purchase tickets or reserve a private cabana, head to our opening day social hub. We can't wait to see you here.

Assuming that your fixtures downstream of this toilet are draining properly and thus there isn't some kind of systemic backup, I would try flushing it a few times by holding the handle down to drain the whole tank and see how it performs. Sometimes, the lazy flush occurs because it isn't starting with enough water. If that doesn't work, I would hit it with a plunger. Good rapid vigorous strokes. Could be there's a partial clog somewhere in there. If the plunger doesn't work, then a closet auger. If the problem doesn't resolve itself with one of these methods, report that back and see what The Gang thinks.
What I'm recommending isn't necessarily the optimal solution, it's just basic Chicken Soup...can't hurt.
One other thought is: does the toilet seem to be dropping as much water as usual through the flush valve? I get a lazy flush occasionally off what I call a "misfire". This occurs when for whatever reason the flapper doesn't cycle all the way open and shuts faster than usual. Usually occurs if I don't push the handle all the way down before releasing. The bowl gets a little water in it, the tank starts refilling, but there isn't enough water through the valve to do a regular flush, just a slow siphon to the bottom.

Mecha means "single ply" in Uruguayan Spanish. Malabrigo Mecha is a bulky single-ply superwash merino. The superwash wool takes the colors beautifully and is very soft. Many of the Malabrigo favorite colors are available in Mecha, along with a few brand new colorways. This yarn would make a warm hat, cowl or a pair of fingerless gloves.
Note: True to Malabrigo's style, the colors are amazing, but be sure to get enough yarn to complete your project since skeins vary greatly. As usual, we'll do our best to match multiple-skein orders.
We do not currently have this available — we first started selling this in April 2013.
