Destructive and high impact weather typically grabs the headlines and our attention, but the past several months have brought some unusual weather phenomena that have more quietly made history.
Nadine was born in Trinidad and Tobago, but moved to Jamaica to attend the University of the West Indies - graduating with a Bachelor's Degree in Geography. After graduating from university, Nadine immediately accepted a position at the Meteorological Service of Jamaica, where she spent six years. In 1998 she attained her Class-One Forecasters' Certificate in Meteorology at the Caribbean Institute of Meteorology and Hydrology. She then returned to the Meteorological Service of Jamaica and represented the Service as one of their on-air meteorologists with Television Jamaica Limited. This is where she started her career in broadcast meteorology. In 2002, Nadine took her love of weather with her to Canada, working at City TV and Global TV in Toronto before joining The Weather Network in 2008. She notes "So much of the atmosphere is unknown - yet it is one of the major components that make life on earth possible. Understanding the way the atmosphere works is an exciting challenge." In her spare time Nadine enjoys reading, swimming, and working in the garden.

Suzanne's warm and intelligent presentation has been a mainstay of The Weather Network's broadcast schedule since 1998. Her passion for communication, meteorology, news and lifelong learning make a winning combination for this broadcaster. Suzanne has traveled extensively across Canada and overseas including Europe, India and Australia, and incorporates that first hand knowledge into her presentation. Like many Canadian immigrants, her introduction to winter was dramatic and abrupt. An October blizzard swooped down on Montreal, leaving 10-year-old Suzanne and her little sister to battle their way home from school on foot. Suzanne enjoyed teaching television studio production at Sheridan College and the experience of mentoring young television and film professionals. She has also been a volunteer teacher of English as a second language. She has an extensive broadcast career which includes 10 years with TVOntario's Gemini Award-winning current affairs and children's programs. Suzanne holds a bachelor's degree in Radio and Television Arts from Ryerson University. While she's come to love Canadian winters, summer is her favourite season. You'll often find her by a lake, working in her garden, hiking or backcountry canoeing. She keeps fit year-round with jogging, yoga and an active lifestyle. Suzanne is a self-described outdoor fanatic and spends as much time as possible outdoors, balancing being active with relaxation and solitude. Catch Suzanne on weekday afternoons on The Weather Network.

With an avid love of the outdoors, it's no surprise that Emily Vukovic came to work at The Weather Network. She's lived in many parts of Canada and really appreciates the diverse weather every province has to offer.

She then completed the Broadcast Journalism program at Seneca College and began her career on air at an 80's pop radio station in Kingston, Ontario. Emily soon made the leap to television, moving over to CKWS for her start in weather broadcasting. After a few years, the opportunity came up to join The Weather Network. Emily has been part of the dynamic team since 2006. Emily soon made the leap to television, moving over to CKWS for her start in weather broadcasting.

Natalie joined The Weather Network in the spring of 2007. While she is most recognized for giving viewers their weekend weather report, some of Natalie's personal highlights include reporting on the floods in Manitoba (spring 2011), covering Hurricane Bill and Tropical Storm Danny on back-to-back weekends (August 2009), and of course, being blown away in the UOIT wind tunnel! Besides her on-camera work at The Weather Network, Natalie also keeps busy behind the scenes as a writer and back-up assignment editor. Natalie came to The Weather Network after hosting Today's Waterloo Region, a 30 minute news program at Rogers TV in Kitchener. She also spent the summer of 2005 interning in Boston at CBS. She worked closely with the I-Team (Investigative Team) and was even sent undercover on a couple of assignments. (Make sure to ask her about the camera glasses she had to wear. It was very James Bond.) Natalie holds a bachelor's degree in Broadcasting and Electronic Media from Appalachian State University. She graduated summa cum laude (4.0 GPA), while playing Division 1 basketball for the Mountaineers on a full athletic scholarship. And just to warn you: "Basketball Natalie" is not as nice as real life Natalie. She's a lot more aggressive, and has been known to throw a few elbows! When Natalie isn't on television, she's watching it! She's also guilty of wasting hours (and hours) on the internet.

Nicole believes that all Canadians share a deep interest in the weather because of the profound effect it has on our daily lives. The weather can play a positive role, but can also be the root of many disastrous situations. This powerful relationship that we have with the weather compels us to study its phenomenon on a daily basis. Some of Nicole's favorite memories outdoors include a big family ski trip to the beautiful hills of Mont Tremblant, summers lake side at camp in Ontario and an unforgettable rainy spring in Vancouver studying voice work at the UBC campus. Nicole's path to broadcasting started as a love for arts and drama, which led her to study Theatre at Queen's University. Upon completing her degree, Nicole returned to her native Toronto and pursued roles in both theatre and film. However, through years of auditions, Nicole found herself drawn to hosting work instead and began working as a presenter for various networks such as Global, Rogers and The Score Television Network. From this experience her passion for broadcasting grew; in order to hone her skills as an on-air presenter, Nicole enrolled in the Broadcast Journalism program at Seneca College. Nicole was offered a position at The Weather Network in 2009. She is very enthusiastic to be a part of such an esteemed weather information team. In her role as a weather broadcaster, Nicole is committed to provide accurate, informative and enjoyable forecasts for years to come. One of Nicole's top travel goals is to take the time to travel across Canada to experience each beautiful province. You can catch Nicole on weekday evenings on The Weather Network.

Since the time she uttered her first words, Kasia Bodurka was labeled a "chatty Kathy." This was partly due to her name ("Kasia" is Polish for "Kathy"), but mostly for her undeniable gift of gab! For this reason it was no surprise to her former peers and teachers that Kasia ended up in broadcasting. Kasia received her Bachelor of Arts degree in Mass Communication and French from The University of Ottawa, and later studied Broadcast Journalism at Seneca College. She then went on to produce and host lifestyle television for community TV. She has also covered news, community events and entertainment both as a videographer and a reporter. Kasia joined The Weather Network team in 2011.

Kevin received an Honours Bachelor of Arts from York University and also attended the Ryerson School of Journalism. He then worked at Rogers Cable TV as a reporter and talk show host for the program "For Your Information." Kevin joined The Weather Network in 2000. What he really takes pride in is working outdoors: being able to tell it like it is and letting the audience know what they should, and should not, be wearing. Born in Toronto, Ontario, and raised in Unionville, Ontario, Kevin has been fascinated with Canadian weather since experiencing the blizzard of 1977. To Kevin rain, hail, wind, snow, sun, and heat are all enjoyable! He thinks he might be crazy, but he enjoys all the seasons Canada has to offer and would not have it any other way. "It would be boring to have the same forecast, day in and day out," he says. Kevin likes to travel at least once a year to a new destination. In his spare time, he likes to watch movies, work out, go to the beach and spend time on a patio with friends. You can catch Kevin on weekday mornings on The Weather Network.

Born and raised in Scarborough, Ontario, Gary Archibald is happy to be back in Canada on The Weather Network covering stories about Canadian weather and sharing in its ongoing, fascinating saga. Gary's original career path was focused on science - he graduated with a B.Sc. (Hon) from the University of Toronto, and had thoughts of becoming a psychologist. However, his first loves of photography and the art of telling stories with pictures and sound have led him in an entirely different direction... After pursuing photographic work professionally, Gary found himself working in front of the camera as a model and actor. He has modeled for Roots Canada, Sony, Harry Rosen, Danier Leather and many other high-profile clients. Gary has also appeared in numerous television commercials, and he made his motion picture debut in 2004's hit comedy Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle. Realizing a potential career in media, Gary went back to school to study Broadcast Journalism at Centennial College. After starting his career as a television writer and editor, he returned to working in front of the camera, this time as a reporter and anchor. He started with Rogers Television, covering junior hockey with the Ontario Hockey League, then with The Weather Network (2002-2004), Global Television, and the A-Channel. From the top media market in Canada to the top media market in America and the world, NBC scouted Gary in 2006, which is when he went off to work in the Big Apple. For three years Gary was a mainstay for the NBC Universal family of top-rated programs and networks. Gary enjoys playing football (which he also coaches), hockey, baseball, tennis and downhill skiing. He loves to listen to music, paint and write poetry. Fall is his favourite season. You can catch Gary on weekday evenings on The Weather Network.

Chris began working at The Weather Network in August 1999 and all these years later, still loves coming to work everyday. "It's an honour and privilege to do this everyday - talking to Canadians about something that affects us all, all the time." An avid fisherman, recreational golfer and all around outdoor enthusiast, Chris' small-town charm often surprises people to learn he was born and raised in Toronto. He is very proud to have visited 9 provinces: "we live in the most beautiful country in the world" - and looks forward to visiting the Territories...preferably in the summer! Creatively combining 3 of his passions — history, weather and story telling — Chris has woven together five short documentaries commemorating some of Canada's biggest weather events. Each one has aired on TWN. From June 2011 to July 2012, Chris took a hiatus from on air work to become a producer for the late morning and afternoon shows. "A real eye–opener...putting together a show is a lot of work, but richly rewarding". He is thankful for the opportunity to expand his skill set. Chris returned back to the airwaves July 23, 2012, doing what he does best — delivering a forecast with a side of humour and humility. Chris is happily married and proposed to his beloved in Paris. They were married in Mexico and honeymooned in New Orleans. "I'm an extremely lucky and thankful man".

Is there anything more fun than weather? It's like sports: the situation is always changing, people are always either rooting for or against it, and (as long as our Earth keeps spinning) anything can happen. I joined The Weather Network family back in 2006 after six years in radio, four years at another television station and, before that, four years in the entertainment world. I came to performance by way of stage - first as an actor and then growing as a comedian and professional public speaker. My mother was a dance teacher and my dad, an engineer who moved us all over the world. I have been in sandstorms in Saudi Arabia, hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico, strange coastal anomalies in southern Spain and a tornado in Barrie back in '85. I graduated on the Dean's Honour List and with an Award for Academic Excellence from Mohawk College's Communications Program. Since being at The Weather Network I have: quickly achieved my CMOS accreditation , assisted in launching our Sirius Satellite Radio feed, filed active weather reports and news reports as well as assisted in producing specialty programming segments. When I am not working weather angles, I am a huge fan of the arts and sports. I love soccer (futbol) and before work, I can be found at my favourite neighbourhood park running drills...then drilling soccer balls into the net. Learning comedy from some amazing touring artists, I went on to attend two years at the Second City Comedy Improv School in Toronto, then formed a comedy troupe of my own that I wrote for and played in for five years. I try to bring a bit of levity to my daily afternoon broadcasts (on and off the camera) and to my daily tweets. Weather can be funny and serious at the same time; think of the cruel joke Chinook winds are to Calgary; think of the fact that the Great Lakes are ice cold for most of the summer - then by winter they have heated up nicely, only to now work as a lake effect snow engine! Hilarious....and I love it!

Chris also believes in green living: "I am an advocate for a healthier planet and the best way to be a greener citizen is to better understand our planet and how all of its parts are linked. Understanding the weather, the one thing that we all share everyday, is a good way to start. We are all naturally curious and if I can encourage someone to be just a little more interested in our Earth, then I feel I've done my job". His first book Canada's Weather , from Firefly Books, is a Canadian best seller. The weather and climate of Canada is thoroughly detailed in this full colour, richly pictorial essay. Chris St. Clair lives in eastern Ontario with his wife and daughter. You can catch Chris on weekend mornings on The Weather Network.

Waterbirth: ACOG on the Wrong Side, Again
Read Jan Tritten's editorial about ACOG's stand on waterbirth. "ACOG always seems to come out on the wrong side. A committee decided that waterbirth needs further study. Hundreds of thousands of waterbirths provide a different side to the story. There was a conference on the safety of waterbirth nearly 25 years ago in London, England. The evidence presented convinced me of the safety of giving birth in water (which I was questioning at the time)." This is the International Edition of Midwifery Today E-News.

Premature Ligation of the Umbilical Cord
"The placenta and cord are, in effect, organs of the newborn. The cord develops from the same tissue that makes up the fetal side of the placenta and this tissue is contiguous with the baby's skin. Cord clamping is the first medical intervention experienced by most humans as part of the third stage of labor. Delay in clamping and cutting of the umbilical cord improves neonatal cardiopulmonary adaptation, increases blood pressure, improves oxygen transport and red blood cell flow, reduces the number of days on ventilation and oxygen with sick and premature infants and reduces the incidence of anemia."

For years, youth baseball players went from Carson City Little League to Babe Ruth if they wanted to continue their careers.
In 2011, the Babe Ruth league disbanded, and Carson City Little League added Junior and Senior divisions.
And now a year later, both Carson City junior and senior all-star teams are headed to Western Regional competition. It's the first time since the early 90s that a Carson team has reached regional play.
"Nobody thought it would happen (get off the ground)," said Craig "Bear" Stevens, a coach in the Carson program. "We had a few teams last year, and …

The World Mangrove Atlas is the first significant attempt to provide an overview of the distribution of mangroves worldwide. Mapped data were gathered from a wide range of sources and synthesised into a series of regional maps. Related texts describe the species, areal extent and other summary information on the currently known status of mangroves in each country. Produced in association with the International Society for Mangrove Ecosystems (ISME) and the International Tropical Timber Organization (ITTO), The World Mangrove Atlas presents a baseline inventory of mangroves at the end of the twentieth century.Resource Type: Books
UNEP-WCMC, with support from the German Federal Agency for Nature Conservation (BfN), has launched a new website highlighting the potential for actions on reducing emissions from land use change to secure additional important benefits for biodiversity and ecosystem services (co-benefits). The website demonstrates the utility of spatial analyses to assist decision makers in identifying areas where high carbon, high biodiversity priority, and ecosystem service values overlap, which represent opportunities for securing co-benefits. It showcases UNEP-WCMC's recent work with in-country partners on developing such analyses and includes an interactive mapping tool that allows users to explore the spatial relationships between carbon and co-benefits.Resource Type: Tools / Applications
This tool provides interactive maps that allow users to explore the distribution of carbon density relative to areas high in biodiversity and areas which are nationally protected for different countries around the world. Users can view layers, show or hide layer content, as well as see how the distribution of carbon and biodiversity relates to other geographical features such as rivers, coastlines, and international boundaries.Resource Type: Spatial Data / Maps
Co‐benefits, often called multiple benefits, are the positive impacts of Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD) that are additional to emissions reductions. These include ecosystem and social benefits such as biodiversity and non‐timber forest products. Potential co‐benefits from REDD are widely relevant in Tanzania, where forests and woodlands support the livelihoods of 87% of the rural poor (Milledge et al. 2007). Conserving biodiversity also promotes the continued provision of these benefits under environmental change (Campbell et al. 2009), thus increasing resilience to climate change. Depending on where REDD action is taken, the co‐benefits delivered will vary. Simple mapping tools can help identify how carbon, other services and pressures such as fire are distributed and relate to each other.
Here, we map the distribution of carbon stocks in relation to the possible co‐benefits of REDD, alongside other relevant factors. A new map of carbon in Tanzania's ecosystems has been produced for this analysis.Resource Type: Reports
Emissions from land use change mainly forest loss contribute 17 4% of total change, loss, 17.4% anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions (IPCC 2007). The UN Framework Convention on Climate Change is currently discussing incentives for Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and forest Degradation in developing countries (REDD). In addition to securing carbon, REDD can deliver co‐benefits, including conservation of forest biodiversity and maintenance of ecosystem services. To help secure co‐benefits, it is useful to find out where high carbon, high biodiversity priority and ecosystem service values overlap.Resource Type: Posters
UNEP-WCMC has been working closely with partners including the CBD Secretariat to implement COP Decision IX/20, to develop an online interactive map and associated tools to support decision making for the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity in the open ocean and deep seas. Building upon this decision, and incorporating related needs in the Island Biodiversity and Protected Areas Programme of Work, UNEP-WCMC has initiated a collaborative Global Marine Data Partnership, whose aim is to:
These activities directly respond to SBSTTA recommendation XIV/3, which will be considered by COP10, through, inter alia, enabling improved assessment activities, supporting the identification of ecologically or biologically significant marine areas (EBSAs), and promoting better understanding of specific and cumulative human impacts, including those of invasive alien speciesResource Type: Tools / Applications
Recent climate talks in Bali have made progress toward action on deforestation and forest degradation in developing countries, within the anticipated post-Kyoto emissions reduction agreements. As a result of such action, many forests will be better protected, but some land-use change will be displaced to other locations. The demonstration phase launched at Bali offers an opportunity to examine potential outcomes for biodiversity and ecosystem services. Research will be needed into selection of priority areas for reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation to deliver multiple benefits, on-the-ground methods to best ensure these benefits, and minimization of displaced land-use change into nontarget countries and ecosystems, including through revised conservation investments.Resource Type: Journal Papers

ATN Aries MK Night Vision Riflescopes
ATN Aries MK Night Vision Riflescopes are the best scopes in their class, featuring a standard Weaver®/Picatinny rail mount with titanium inserts, internal positive click adjustment turrets just like the best daytime scopes, improved optical configuration, low F-stop factor, and increased optical resolution to allow more light to travel through the lens. More light and better resolution means brighter and sharper image. ATN's precision "red on green" aiming system, easy push-button operation, reticle brightness adjustment, and detachable 450mW Infrared Illuminator, coupled with the unit's rugged, weather-resistant design, make ATN Aries the best riflescopes for night predator extermination. Each unit is equipped with high-resolution Gen-1 image intensifier tubes.
FOV= Field of view at 1000 yards
Rated 4 out of 5 by 5 reviewers.
Rated 1 out of 5 by rubeng not a good purchase Cannot see past 40-50 yards...ir does not wirk that great either February 11, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by TransplantedTexan Performs great so far I believe, with the purchase of this scope, I hit a home run. Managed to semi-zero the scope on my AR 15 with the daylight filter on. Unable to do a final zero during the hours of darkness because of Louisiana's restrictions on discharging firearms after normal shooting hours (LA game wardens are not known for their sense of humor about such things) I will wait until after March 1, when night hunting for feral pigs is allowed. I have no reason to believe that this scope will not perform perfectly. Excellent value and functionality for the money. The only reason I rated it at 4 stars is due to the fact that I have not had it long enough to put it through its paces. January 31, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by BigDanM Awesome night vision for price Scope works very well especially with upgraded IR. the one that comes with it is a joke. All in all even with the $100 upgraded IR still a deal for the clarity and ease of use November 29, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by gastonglock22 Great for the money! I bought this scope about 6 months ago for hunting coyote in the midwest. I looked at several other models and brands and I settled on this one. It was a great choice. It works great out to about 150 yards. I would highly recommend buying a laser indicator to go with it. It will increase your range out to about 250 yards and make it so you can use it on cloudy nights with no moon light. If your looking for a entry level night vision scope on a budget this is the one you want!!! Make sure you buy rechargeable batteries! November 2, 2012

Details:Can I put this scope on my 300 winmag without worrying about it being hurt by or with the recoil?
A:I have an ATN Sparton night vision scope mounted on a .243. the recoil may not hurt the scope but it might hurt you because you will need to put your eye close to the rubber boot on the eye piece which does not allow much space for the needed eye relief because of the recoil of a 300 win mag. I have a 300 Weatherby.

During the many years of publishing the Schottenstein Edition of the Talmud, students of Gemara asked for a smaller, lighter version of the full-size text. We listened and responded with the Daf Yomi edition. Every word, indeed every feature, of the full-size edition is here in a compact 7" x 10" size-and printed on lighter, thinner paper.
Like the full-size edition, the Daf Yomi edition of the Schottenstein Talmud Bavli is available in 73 volumes. The Daf Yomi edition is popular with travelers as well as with Torah students on a budget. Besides it's appealing size, at about 30% less than the full-size edition, it's also a great value. In Talmud classes and congregations throughout the English speaking world, the Daf Yomi edition of the Talmud Bavli has become a very popular resource.
Torah learning is everywhere today � "when you are at home or on the road." So, in addition to your full-size Gemara at home, you can have a "travel Gemara" for times when you need something more portable.

"Salt of the Earth" (1954) depicts the true story of a 1951 stand taken by Mexican-American miners against unsafe and unfair working conditions
Politics and movies have had an unstable relationship over the last century.
Chris Dashiell praises actress Rosaura Revueltas' performance in "Salt of the Earth"
Sandwiched between a surprising number of silent films that were about social issues, and today's era of unflinching documentaries, were decades of censorship. This was never more true than during the anti-communist "red scare" years of the late 1940s and 1950s.
The backlash against left-wing, pro-labor, and communist political activism was so strong that hundreds of actors and film makers were effectively "blacklisted". No major studio would knowingly employ them.
These factors made it rare for a movie made in the United States to present any politics other than mainstream. But as Chris Dashiell relates, one exception is a little-known film made in 1954 called Salt of the Earth...
Who is Chris Dashiell?
Film reviewer Chris Dashiell
Chris Dashiell has been writing about movies for seventeen years, serving as the editor of the online film lovers' guide Cinescene for ten of them. He currently reviews films for Flicks, a weekly program on Tucson's community radio station KXCI, and he confesses to shamelessly idolizing Carl Dreyer, Jean Renoir, and Luchino Visconti.

By Moises on 6/17/12 Moises would recommend this product to a friend This Test kit is very nice because you get an accurate digital reading. If you are worried about your phosphate levels and want to make sure you have them under control you need this product. For the price of the test kit I feel like it should of came with more reagents to perfom test. As of now it only comes with 5 so you better buy extra refills. Only other complaint I have it the powder reagents is hard to get into the small vile. I would recomend getting this product with your GFO reactor. Best investment! By Nicholas on 6/1/12 Nicholas would recommend this product to a friend If you are considering running GFO in your tank this is the way to go, This instrument is very precise and accurate. It is much nicer knowing exactly what your PO4 is rather than guessing it is somewhere under .25. Great PO4 Test By Trevor on 5/30/12 Trevor would recommend this product to a friend Super easy to use and accurate. No guessing with the digital read out. The next tester I need will be a Hanna. Hard to get used to. Then its great By Dan on 5/10/12 Dan would recommend this product to a friend No more guess colors. But you must keep the glass vile very clean. No figerprints kids. one problem By Tim on 5/7/12 Tim would recommend this product to a friend they don't have enouph types of checkers! Yet! awesome product , bit spendy but if it holds up it's well worth it. digital read out sweeet! Great BUT.... By BUG on 5/5/12 BUG would recommend this product to a friend A cheap, flimsy, warped and very difficult to open case greets you when you first try to access this kit! Kind of like having a cheap and dysfunctional door handle on a fancy new car.... I hope this case is not indicative of the quality of the tester inside! Comes with only 5 tests, so be sure to buy more when you order one of these. Other than the above, seems to work great and consistent and is easy to use once you free it from the cheapy case... Works By Milton on 5/2/12 Milton would recommend this product to a friend Much better than trying to match up shades of green. You won't mind testing now. Throw out the color comparisons By thomas on 4/22/12 thomas would recommend this product to a friend I hate reading color charts. I never feel like i know for sure what the result is and the time involved sucks. I am a zoology major in college and I bring my checks with my to labs and they professors are even impressed. the liguid reagent is slighty more conveinant than the powder but both are easy to use and the results, well who doe not like looking at a number that is plus or minus a few ppm andknowing for sure what the result is Easy to use! By Stephanie on 4/20/12 Stephanie would recommend this product to a friend This product is very simple to use. I love the digital display no more guessing. I recommend it to anyone who needs to test for phosphates. I bought dry rock and wanted to test for leaching phosphates and this little tool made it easy. 1st one broke, second one broke.... 3rd times a charm? By JDK on 4/17/12 JDK wouldn't recommend this product to a friend First one broke day 1. Top came right off. Replacement arrived worked for 2 tests now it wont turn on. Guess I will have to go for 3rd times a charm. Getting frustrated! Great product By Omar on 4/13/12 Omar would recommend this product to a friend This is a great product and easy to use. Is very accurate and on the long way you will save money. Love it By Eric on 4/7/12 Eric would recommend this product to a friend The instructions were confusing the first time I used it, but as soon as I figured it out it became the easiest test ever. I love the fact that it gives you an actual number. No more matching colors. Love it. Great product, great price. By Alex on 4/2/12 Alex would recommend this product to a friend I have nothing but good things to say about the Hanna Phosphate checker. For a while, I was using color chart comparison phosphate kits, which is extremely difficult since the shades of blue are so subtle to compare. Added to that, the lowest value it read to was <.25. For delicate sps tanks, less than .25 is not an accurate enough result. This is why the Hanna checker is so nice. It gives decimal values all the way down to .01, rather than a blanket statement of less than .25. Considering the money we spend on our aquariums, phosphate should be measured accurately to ensure animal health. Considering it's only about double what other kits cost, it's a no brainer! Skip the guesswork, and get this checker! It makes testing to much easier. Don't forget to buy the reagents when you buy the kit! Fast & easy By Oliver on 3/27/12 Oliver would recommend this product to a friend Loved this testor...no longer will I have to guess at the results....fun to use. No further guessing at the results. super nice unit By mygolfisslow on 3/14/12 mygolfisslow would recommend this product to a friend i love this thing super easy to use and accurate reading. better than any color chart test kit. Easy to use By Derek on 3/3/12 Derek would recommend this product to a friend Like the checker - easy to use, prefer liquid reagent rather than powder. No more color comparisons By John on 3/2/12 John would recommend this product to a friend Much better alternative than the salifert or other kits that rely on colors charts. Much more accurate and consistent. fast easy to use By reef evo on 2/21/12 reef evo would recommend this product to a friend This is a great phosphate tester. no more color guessing. For the price you just cant beat it. Another Must Have From Hanna By Roy on 2/19/12 Roy would recommend this product to a friend Wow. These Hanna Colorimeters are fantastic. No more guessing at the colors. Fast, easy and accurate. Another must have item for any serious reefer. Great product By Matthew on 2/17/12 Matthew would recommend this product to a friend The good: No more guessing the colors Very accurate They give you reagents Love the simpleness once you figure out how to do these The bad: They shove everything into the case and if you don't put everything back just right it won't close correctly The instructions aren't as clear as they should be, so i just googled and watched the videos on how to do the tests. The terminology of unreacted sample and when you think about it, on some of these tests, it makes you go huh? So watch the videos. The battery cover is a pain to get off Overall so glad i bought these.. no more test kits to expire and trying to distinguish different shades of blue! Would buy again! By Alex on 2/2/12 Alex would recommend this product to a friend I have been using the other test kits out there for a while and decided to see if the Hanna checkers were worth it. I LOVE them and wouldn't go back after trying them. The digital readout is easy to get and accurate. So much easier, don't hesitate to pick up this product today! Nice test kit By Frank on 2/1/12 Frank would recommend this product to a friend Sooooooo much better then trying to figure out shades of colors with other kits. I will never go back great test kit. Best test kit By ROY on 1/30/12 ROY would recommend this product to a friend This is by far the best PO4 test kit I have ever used! Very easy to test. Worth the money!

Best social media tip ever: don't multi-task, set time blocks
The social media monster is out to get you! How to beat him: - Don't multi-task. Do each thing in time blocks. Then desist completely till its next time block. One at a time: Twitter, Facebook, emails, creative stuff, other responsibilities. - Sometimes even switch off – don't be like the girl at 0:18 in the frieze on the bronze statue at the magnificent rebuilt London St Pancras station.

Consider Wordpress for your next web project
If you are considering starting a new website including church site or blog, put WordPress near the top of your list of options. It is a CMS (Content Management System) website creator, and is no longer just a blog tool. Large static websites can be built with it, for example the 1000s of pages of the PowertoChange outreach site. It powers 20-25% of all new websites coming online.

Even so, they say the bust is unlikely to lead authorities directly to the hackers behind the breach, given the vast, labyrinthine nature of the global market for stolen data.
According to police in McAllen, Texas, two Mexican citizens arrested at the border used account information stolen during the pre- Christmas Target breach to buy tens of thousands of dollars' worth of merchandise. But the U.S. Secret Service said Tuesday its investigation into the possibility of a link between the Target data theft and the arrests remains ongoing.
Target says hackers stole about 40 million debit and credit card numbers from cards swiped at its stores between Nov. 27 and Dec. 15. The thieves also took personal information -- including email addresses, phone numbers, names and home addresses -- for another 70 million people.
In the aftermath of the breach, millions of Americans have been left to wonder what's become of their precious personal information. Chester Wisniewski, senior security adviser for the computer security firm Sophos, says in cases where such a massive amount of information is stolen, criminals generally divide the data into chunks and sell the parcels in online black markets.
In many ways, those markets behave much like any legitimate marketplace ruled by the forces of supply and demand. Groups of higher-end cards are worth significantly more than those with lower credit limits and so are cards tied to additional personal information, such as names, addresses and zip codes, which make them easier to use.
After thieves purchase the numbers, they can encode the data onto new, blank cards with an inexpensive, easy-to-use gadget. Or they can skip the card-writing process and simply use the card numbers online.
Crooks often have the option to buy cards last used in their area. That way, Wisniewski says, the cards attract less attention from the banks that issued them.
According to police, the pair arrested at the U.S.-Mexican border used cards containing the account information of Target shoppers from South Texas. Police say the two used fraudulent cards to purchase numerous items at national retailers in the area.
The underground markets always have a steady supply of card numbers on sale and their locations are always moving as they try to elude law enforcement, says Daniel Ingevaldson, chief technology officer at Easy Solutions Inc., a firm that sells anti-fraud products and tracks the activity of the online black markets. A big jump in inventory usually indicates there's been a breach of a major retailer. That's what Ingevaldson's firm saw in the cases of both Target and Neiman Marcus, which also recently reported a breach. (continued...)

Neighborhoods: Central Business District, French Quarter - CBD
Great Hotel BUT... – It's a great hotel but if any of you are looking to save some $$ then book it at referer.us/8/GoodHotelDeals They usually have some pretty good deals on there!
Amazing Place to Stay – My boyfriend and I stayed here on a recent visit to New Orleans. I was a bit unsure about it since I usually stay at the International House, but since they were booked, we gave Le Pavillon a try...Now, I don't think we will stay anywhere else when we visit! The hotel is 'old elegance' but not at all stuffy! There were weddings booked the entire weekend we stayed, but the staff did not seem strained or hurried. In fact, Mark, the Concierge, was more than willing to talk with us and make suggestions. The Doorman, Michael was awesome! Very efficient, outgoing and polite - he was one of the people that helped make our stay so wonderful! The rooftop pool was great and the rooms were more than comfortable. We will be staying here on our next visit, for sure!
Affordable Luxury in New Orleans – We spent 5 days - 4 nights at this hotel in June 2008. The staff was fantastic. We got to the hotel early but they let us check in early. We did not like our first room because it was near the roof-top swimming pool and we could small the chlorine so they quickly moved us to a beautiful room on the 4th floor.
The service was fantastic. The consier was very helpful, pointing things out on maps, letting us know about local events and booking on us on a great swamp tour. The pool and hot tub on the roof deck served as a great refuge during the hot, humid evenings. They also serve complementary peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and hot chocolate at 10pm (what a sweet touch).
The hotel is about a 15 minute walk to the French Quarter but we liked being away from the hustle and bustle. However if you are not a walker (and it can get really hot here) this might not be appealing. Especially since there are very a few places to grab lunch or breakfast around here and nowhere to eat dinner.
Regal ambience in the Central Business District. – The Scene
This hotel stands out with its opulent formality. A doorman wearing a top hat and white gloves greets guests as they step into the entry portico adorned with tall columns. The high-ceilinged lobby of the narrow building comes complete with a pianist. Far from being stuffy, though, the hotel has a sense of humor about its own excess. Every night guests help themselves to a spread of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches set on silver trays and chocolate milk cooling in champagne buckets.
The Details
The property dates back to 1907 when it opened as the DeSoto Hotel. Many of the guest rooms are draped in finery, some with antique-style appointments and 19th-century-style paintings. Some are quite small. Among the contemporary amenities is modem access. There is a rooftop pool with beautiful views. Elegant meetings spaces include the clubby Poydras Board Room for small executive gatherings. Room service is available round the clock.
Expecting Better – Parking is $28 to valet and $25 public parking next to hotel. Checked in with a flood of people and although our luggage was taken to the front desk, bellman disappeared and we had to take our luggage up to our room. The room was small but nicely decorated. no coffee maker in the room, water went from extremely hot to cold. Second floor room was loud from the traffic below. Returned to our room unable to get in. Problem was a low battery on the card reader to the room.
Complaint was that anytime you went to the front desk you had to wait in a line as there was only one front desk agent working at any given time. The entire staff was friendly despite the challenges and the hotel was quite lovely in furnishings.
This hotel had good location. Hotel offers free high speed internet
WOW! – I got an online deal (last minute) to stay at Le Pavillon during mid July. I must say I was amazed. What a great value! I paid the same thing I have been paying to stay at staple hotels like the Marriot, but what a difference Le Pavillon was.
They really seem to go an extra mile. The staff wasn't overly friendly, but they were available at a moments notice.
It is a bit further from the hustle and bustle of Bourbon, but that's why I liked it. If you stay plan on taking a cab. You can get anywhere you need to go...Uptown or the Quarter within 5 blocks, but it's a tough 5 blocks.
Great Hotel! Also be in the lobby at 10pm for Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwhiches.
Beautiful – The hotel is absolutely gorgeous! If you can get a good rate, it makes the 5 block walk to the French Quarter pretty bearable. I will warn you, however, that valet parking is $25 per night. This seems a little expensive even by New Orleans standards. The staff is friendly, although requests for King beds and non-smoking rooms are not always granted. Overall, a good hotel. The PB&J in the lobby is a nice touch.
luxury hotel – this is a great hotel. the staff is very friendly, and they make every attempt to cater to you! the hotel serves peanut butter and jelly sandwhiches at the lobby at nite, which is a cute touch! the showers are made from real marble, and the hotel contains a nice roof top hotel. Room service is 24/7!! THe only negative thing i would add is the shampoo that comes with the room is awful! Bring your own!

Terps Champions Of Paradise
The Maryland Terrapins got some sun, had some fun and for good measure, captured the title of the Paradise Jam basketball tournament. The Terps edging Providence 56-52 in the championship game on Monday night in the Virgin Islands.
Tournament MVP Dez Wells and Evan Smotrycz were the only Terrapins in double figures, finishing with 13 points apiece. Maryland led by nearly 20 points in the second half, but had to hold on to beat the previously unbeaten Friars.
NOTES: Smotrycz was named to the Paradise Jam All-Tournament team … The junior forward averaged 12.3 points and seven rounds in the three-game tournament and matched his career high with 11 rebounds against the Friars … Smotrcyz also added his fourth career double-double with his 13-point and 11-rebound effort against Providence … The Terps held the Friars to 27.1 percent shooting after Providence entered the game shooting 43.4 percent from the floor … Maryland's last regular season championship was at the 2K Sports Coaches vs. Cancer Classic in 2006.
Maryland Providence BOX
Post Game QUOTES
As for that fun and sun? How about some snorkeling for the Terps?
With three wins in four days, the Terps are now 4-2 on the season. The Terrapins return home to host Morgan State on Friday night at the Comcast Center.

Tara and I spent Christmas Eve and a bit of Christmas day gallavanting throughout Vancouver. That'd be Vancouver, British Columbia, not Vancouver, Washington, for those of you keen on keeping track of things such as this.
One of the things we were keen on purchasing was a bottle of Amaretto Cream Liqueur, a tasty, overly sweet concoction easily found in the Liquor Stores in Vancouver, but not so much here in the state of Washington. While in the store, we were assisted by a harried, but helpful clerk. After procuring said Amaretto Cream, she asked if there was anything else she could help with. That's when the idea hit me.
Absinthe. Canada sells Absinthe.
Tara and I made a request, and the clerk happily took us to the main office to look at the special collection. There were two options a cheap version and a not so cheap version.
The above scenario represents the quintessential opportunity for companies to take advantage of those who are ignorant of products. Here we have a couple who are only marginally acquainted with a product, and a clerk with even less. The couple has money to spend, but little knowledge. The couple did what the majority of people would do in similar circumstances.
They purchased the more expensive bottle, working under the assumption that more money equates to a more authentic experience.
What Tara and I ended up with was a bottle of Hill's Absinth. Yes, that's Absinth, without an 'e'. With a thujone concentration of 1.5 parts per million, it's not an absinthe in the traditional sense. In fact, some argue that Hill's Absinth isn't Absinthe at all.
After heading back to the hotel, we looked up Hill's on the internet, and came upon bad review after bad review of the product. As the Wormwood Society writes, "Czech 'Absinth' (without the "e" at the end) gets a lot of bad press from absinthe enthusiasts; primarily, that's because it's not really absinthe, but a poor approximation. Most of it is fake."
Well crap. Lesson learned.
Tara and I have decided to hold on to the bottle. After we move into our new abode, we'll pick up a well-researched bottle of Absinthe and report on it here.
Meanwhile, we're determining how to not let this happen in the future, whether it be Absinth, Absinthe, or other product where ignorance is seen as a valued commodity amongst producers.

The base 182-hp, 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine has been dropped. The formerly optional 2.4-liter with eAssist—a battery-powered electric motor that acts like a hybrid to improve fuel economy—is now the base powerplant. The turbocharged 220-hp, 2.0-liter four is the next step up. The GS, with a 270-hp version of the same turbo four, remains at the top and is now available with an automatic or a manual transmission...more
Although it's not yet Buick's best-selling model, the Regal has become the center of gravity for the brand. It sits at the heart of the lineup—below the LaCrosse and above the Verano—and has the widest range of variants. All Regals are derived from the Opel Insignia and have a firmer, more-European-style chassis setup than you might expect from Buick. The Regal Turbo and the GS add driver-adjustable steering effort and adaptive dampers. The base Regal is powered by a 2.4-liter four-cylinder with the eAssist system (formerly a $2000 option), and fuel economy is an impressive 25/36 mpg, although the larger LaCrosse with this same powertrain does just as well. For those seeking more power, there's a 2.0-liter turbocharged four that offers 220 hp and can be had with a six-speed manual or automatic transmission. The Regal GS has all kinds of serious sport-sedan hardware: a 270-hp version of the 2.0-liter turbo, deeply bolstered sport seats upholstered in leather, Brembo disc brakes, a lower ride height, a redesigned front suspension, and a standard six-speed stick (or an automatic at no charge). The big omission is all-wheel drive, as the high-output turbo's 295 lb-ft of torque is an awful lot to send through the front wheels. The GS does, however, get GM's HiPer Strut front suspension that mitigates, but doesn't completely eliminate, torque steer.
Front, side, and side curtain air bags; ABS; a tire-pressure monitor; and stability and traction control are standard. Rear-seat side air bags come with the Premium II trim level or higher. OnStar includes crash response and emergency assistance and is included for six months.

There are three different climate zones in Spain, due to its large size. Visitors can generally expect a Mediterranean climate, characterized by hot, dry summers and mild, rainy winters. The vast central plateau, or Meseta, has a more continental influenced climate with hot, dry summers and cold winters. Rain generally falls mostly in spring and autumn. The mountains surrounding the plateau have a higher rainfall and often experience heavy snowfalls in winter.
North of the Cantabrian mountains, the Basque Country, Cantabria, Asturias and Galicia have a maritime climate, with cool summers and mild winters. The weather is often cloudy with frequent rainfall. On the Mediterranean coast, the climate is moderate with rain in spring and autumn. The area around Murcia has an almost African climate; rainfall is low and the Calima, or heat haze, is common during summer. On the Atlantic coast, the summers are cooler and fairly heavy rainfall occurs during winter. Inland, the summers are hot and the rainfall decreases. The Balearic Islands have a maritime climate, with cool, wet winters and warm, dry summers.

Folsom >Restaurants >
Pizza >Chicago Fire
614 Sutter St, Folsom, CA | Directions 9563038.677935 -121.176334
Sunday-Thursday 4:00 PM - 9:00 PM ; Friday-Saturday 4:00 PM - 10:00 PM
Delicious Food at Chicago Fire – The greatest thing about Chicago Fire is their homemade sauces, which I like. Their homemade sauces are perfectly created. The flavor and taste of their sauces are excellent. May be that's the reason why their pizzas taste so good. Any flavor of their pizza is heavenly delicious.
I also enjoy eating their deep dish pie, it's one of the best pies I've eaten in my whole being. It's a must try at Chicago Fire. You can also try their salad, their salad is as delicious as their pizza.
Prices of their food are quite reasonable. Their customer service is fantastic. Food attendants are cheerful and easy to get along with. Chicago Fire is really on fire!
Fire Doused – I read in Sacramento Magazine that the pizza here was pretty good so i decided to give it a try. I went on a Saturday night and it was without a doubt the loudest pizza place ever. Usually good restaurants are quiet because if youve got time to talk, the food leaves nothing to be desired. My girlfriend ordered a stuffed pizza and it was just crammed full of cheese. It was so loud our waitress (through no ones fault) ended up getting my order incorrect. The pizza itself didn't kill us, but it did make Chicago fire's rating with me somewhere around Papa Murphy's or digiornos. We could have gone there instead of missing Boise State/Oregon State. Go to Zelda's or Luigi's for pizza royalty. this place stunk.
Local Pizza Place – This is a local pizza place. The food is great or they wouldnt be in business. I see these other reviews and laugh, you people are to high up the hill or just to damn picky. Service, yes it will be slow because you show up at 6:00, dah!! call ahead and take it home if you dont have time to wait. Period ! Show up when they open the doors, problem solved or go try mountain mikes lol !! Snobs !! LOL !
Go In And Form Your Own Opinion – I felt someone should toss in a comment or 2 about the long wait, the reservation policy and the fact that most of the negative comments about this place seem pretty self serving. Real deep dish pie takes a long time. I eat out at restaurants a lot. Busy places can't always take care of big groups, even if it is your special night. This place is cool. Readers of reviews should check it out on their own instead of being swayed by someone who obviously had their own issues on the night they went in. Biggest problem on the web is people can throw rocks with impunity. Lighten up people. It's dinner not surgery!
What a disappointment – Was looking forward to treating my Mom, Daughter and Grandaughter to a fun and delicious experience. Was told 45 min wait on arrival, not happy about that but..we were there!Then at the 45 minute marker was told another 15 minutes (1 hour!) And then did not get seated for another 30 minutes! Was FINALLY told that a party of 20 that had reservations for 5 PM did not arrive until 6 PM and they held those tables for them for an hour!!! While all the other guests had ridiculous wait times with no offer of any kind of compensation. Maybe a glass of wine or a beer to ease the pain while waiting on a poor decision. Perhaps a discount coupon for future visit ( if any of them come back!) OR a discount on their dinner last night, 11/14/09 We stood on our feet - no place to sit, even at the bar! I cannot believe they made the decision to hold tables for one hour and made the rest of the customers very disturbed, must be some pretty important customers, sure hope that poor server got a huge tip!
Love, love, love it! – My girlfriends and I like to go here before going out dancing on our "girls night out". The pizza is great, and once seated (which can take a while), we've never had a problem with the service. Our servers have always been polite and fun......however, we are also nice and polite to them. To all those who complain about rude service, I wonder how you are treating the servers? If you're being rude to them and constantly whining about the wait (which is not the server's fault), you can't expect the server to maintain a cheery attitude with you. Lighten up. Go in expecting to spend some time there, have a drink or two while waiting, and enjoy the pizza when it comes!
Chicago Fire is a great place to spend a evening. We started with a Caesar and a antipasto salad they were quite delicious.
Then came the pizza, the crust was thin and crisp and soft (I'm not sure how they do that) with tomato sauce that was just right.. Lots of mozzarella cheese, sausage, pepperoni and ham.
Loved it.
Great Pizza – I have been to the midtown Chicago Fire several times - both eat in and take out. The pizza has consistently been perfect! I've never had it overcooked or soggy. The service was slow when we ate in, but the atmosphere is fun and we didn't mind. It took about 2 hours in total to eat in. They get so busy I understand why the service is slow. I love deep dish, and this pizza is some of the best deep dish I've ever had.
BEST PIZZA AROUND SACRAMENTO !!!! – My family loves this place. We take alot of people here and it is great everytime.
My kids love Katie and always want to sit in her section (and she always remember all of our names), so sometimes we have to wait a little longer to get her section, but she makes our night alot of fun and its totally worth the wait !!!!!!!
GREAT PIZZA and SERVICE. We highly reccomend it
I'll stick with to BJ's – Last night was my second attempt with Chicago Fire Pizza in Folsom, and again I'm terribly disappointed. I arrived at 630pm and left at 930. Ridiculous! The server approached us as we were leaving and asked for a bigger tip. That was amazing! The pizza tasted good, but is overpriced in my opinion. I'll never go back.

Love Amy Adele!
PROS: Design choice, Quick shipping, NICELY PACKAGED, PERSONALIZATION, Quality
BEST USES: Thank you, Party, Engagement
Comments about Engagement Couple Announcements:
Amy Adele allowed me to choose my invitation and personalize it to my event. The invitation I choose was for an event done by my Photography studio. I chose a invitation that was geared towards a bridal event that had a male and female cartoon with a heart between the two of them. It was such a cute design! There were a great amount of options to choose from as well as links that categorized the type of event invitation I was trying to create. I thought the website was very user-friendly and customer service was great!
