The 2014 Mazda CX-9 features a new finish on its 18-inch wheels, a new design for 20-inch wheels, and the availability of rear cross-traffic alert on Touring and Grand Touring models...more
Introduced for 2008, the Mazda CX-9 presents itself as a Euro-style utility vehicle. Its interior and exterior styling have remained fresh thanks to an emphasis on design modernity along with family values. The CX-9 offers seven-passenger capacity from three rows of seats, yet this is still meant to be a daily driver, so it's relatively compact in overall size. Although the CX-9 offers 139.7 cubic feet of interior volume, the stylish interior architecture might leave the passengers feeling a little constricted.
The Mazda CX-9 was named as an Automobile Magazine All-Star in 2008 and finished third in automobilemag.com's 2013 comparison of family utilities.
It's easy to believe that all crossover-utility vehicles are the same. Take a comfortable, car-like platform and adapt it to all-wheel drive (or not), then configure an interior that can haul either passengers or cargo. Nevertheless, the results are always different, and the 2014 Mazda CX-9 has found its niche as a crossover that makes you feel like more than a bus driver.
The 2014 Mazda CX-9 is available in either front- or four-wheel drive. A 3.7-liter V-6 matched with a six-speed automatic transmission does the job of motivating this Mazda, and the transmission's responsive programming makes the CX-9 crossover feel more like a car than a truck. The engine makes 273 270 lb-ft of torque. On its allotment of regular grade gasoline, the V-6 delivers 17/24 mpg in front-wheel-drive form and 16/22 mpg with the all-wheel drive.
Over the past few years, many of the electronic comfort and convenience features that once were considered as options have instead become must-have items. The Mazda CX-9 has always been a very well-equipped crossover in this respect, and it has been updated effectively. It offers the keyless ignition, rear-view camera, and blind-spot monitoring that have become essential, and Bluetooth, premium audio, navigation and a rear-seat entertainment system are part of the program Three different trim levels are available: Sport, Touring and Grand Touring.
In short, the 2014 Mazda CX-9 is a step above its competition in many respects and compares very well with the utility vehicles offered by the Japanese-label premium brands of Acura, Infiniti and Lexus.

For the dishwasher, I would NOT get a bottom of the line at all. Too noisy, not enough features. My favorite brands are GE and Whirlpool. Although Bosch, Miele, etc are so-called premier brands, they come with a premier price, and I don't think they are worth the extra money. In the $600 range, you can do very well on a GE or WP.
For faucets, most of us here are conservative and lean towards the old standbys, Delta, Moen, distant 3rd Kohler. All of these have a decent selection of styles and finishes. The kitchen faucet is not so critical because it is relatively easy to replace if you get stuck with a lemon. If you fall in love with an unknown designer brand at the design center or on line ( we strongly recommend to NEVER buy a faucet on line) you will pay up in price, and find parts availability marginal.
For the pot filler, I absolutely "insist" you stick with a top of the line major brand.....Chicago, T&S, Fisher. They are not cheap, but TOO MANY BAD things if your pot filler goes south.
We get lots of questions here along the lines of " I am in the middle of this remodel and such and such doesn't fit" or something like that. You are absolutely spot on asking these question right up front. I STRONGLY urge you to get your designer involved right at the beginning ( even if the designer is YOU) and provide him, and any contractors, fabricators, installers with dimensional/installation details for all your product...cabinets, appliances, sink, faucets BEFORE any purchases are made or anyone starts cutting holes, etc. This extra effort will save you major headaches!

Linebacker Switches Commitment From Arkansas To Vanderbilt
January 26th, 2012 04:47 PM║ Posted By: Josh Ward ║ Permalink
Tags: Beau Hankins, Harding Harper, Otha Peters Tennessee, Reggie Northrup Miami
Linebacker Jakarri Thomas from Godby High School in Tallahassee, Fla., has switched his commitment from Arkansas to Vanderbilt.
Thomas made the decision after taking an official visit to Vanderbilt last weekend.
"I looked at everything when I made the decision," Thomas told VandySports.com. "A big part was the education. When I went on my visit to Vanderbilt, I found myself feeling as though they prepare you to be stable in life in the long-run."
Arkansas should be fine at linebacker in the long run despite Thomas' decision to switch his commitment.
The Razorbacks remain in the picture for several linebackers, including Vin Ascolese, Beau Hankins, Harding Harper, Reggie Northrup (Miami commit) and Otha Peters (Tennessee commit).

The 'post topic' button appears when you're in a board (eg. Introductions). It's in roughly the same place as the 'post reply' button is when you're in a topic.

Thanks for the insight all. But i'd like to know how to make text bigger. I surf using my mobile phone and most times i find it difficult viewing the solutions to most math problems(and its not the font size of my phone as that have been moderately increased) ....and since the solutions come highlighted when i click instead of having it go bigger it ends up being distorted.

Consuming Web Services using Microsoft Dynamics AX
In this article, created by Klaas Deforche and Kenny Saelen, the authors of the book Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R2 Services, we will see how to consume a web service from Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012.
In the previous versions of Microsoft Dynamics AX, you could add a web service reference in a reference node in the AOT. This generated proxy classes and other artifacts that you could then use to consume the service. In Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012, we no longer have the option to add service references to the AOT. Instead, Microsoft Visual Studio is used to generate all artifacts, which are then added to the AOT.
How this works and how this can be done will all become clear in this article.
The following topics will be covered in this article:
- Installing the Visual Studio Tools: We have to install additional components because part of the development takes place in Visual Studio 2010. You will learn which components to install and what exactly they do.
- Visual Studio development: After introducing the demo service, we will create a reference for the services with the help of Visual Studio. We will take you through this process step-by-step.
- X++ development: Finally, we will demonstrate how we can use the Visual Studio project to consume services in Microsoft Dynamics AX. You will also gain an insight into the different deployment modes that are available to deploy the project's output.

Virtual Machine Concepts
In this article by Rebecca Fitzhugh, the author of the book vSphere Virtual Machine Management, has explained the basic concepts of the virtual machine. Ever since VMware was founded in 1998, it has been creating stable x86 virtualization platforms that allow multiple guest operating systems and applications to run on a single physical server. Before an administrator can begin creating and configuring vSphere virtual machines, it is important to understand what a virtual machine is and the concepts behind virtualizing hardware.
In this article, you will learn:
- What a virtual machine is
- Components of a virtual machine
- Why to use virtual machines
- Files that make up a virtual machine
- The four primary resources

Still cursed
Posted: Tuesday October 19, 1999 02:57 AM
BOSTON (AP) -- They don't just go quietly, that's not the Boston Red Sox way.
They can't just lose. They must tease.
It would be easier to take if they were pathetic. Instead, they are cruel to their long-suffering fans.
Ruthless, even.
Loading the bases after Jason Varitek's leadoff home run in the eighth inning brought the Red Sox within three runs Monday night, the Red Sox brought the chilly Fenway Park crowd to its feet for a final time in the 1999 season. Then Ramiro Mendoza struck out pinch-hitter Scott Hatteberg and got Trot Nixon to pop up to bring Boston's surprising season to an unsurprising end.
With the decisive 6-1 victory, the New York Yankees won the first-ever postseason matchup between the longtime rivals and eliminated the Red Sox from the best-of-7 American League Championship Series in five games.
Boston has not won the World Series since selling Babe Ruth to New York in 1920. Since then, the Yankee have won 36 AL pennants and 24 World Series championships, with a chance at their 25th.
It has been so long since since the Red Sox won the World Series that Ruth's 82-year-old daughter, who threw out the first pitch Monday night, was a 1 year-old baby when her father pitched his first team to the title.
Julia Ruth Stevens came in from Arizona on a chilly night and proclaimed herself a Red Sox fan. She said she didn't believe her father has put a curse on baseball's unluckiest franchise, but she did notice the coincidence.
It would be impossible not to.
In 1946, it was Johnny Pesky allegedly holding the ball as St. Louis' Enos Slaughter raced around the bases to score the winning run. In '78, it was Bucky Dent's popup that reached the screen above the Green Monster and gave the Yankees the AL East title.
And then there was the slow roller that went through Bill Buckner's high-topped ankles in 1986 to help New York's Mets emotionally clinch a title they wouldn't actually win until two days later.
This time, the only bad luck was running into the Yankees.
In a series bound to inflame baseball's fiercest rivalry well into the next century, the deeper defending champions merely needed to wait for the days Pedro Martinez couldn't pitch and take advantage of some sloppy Red Sox fielding -- and, yes, an umpire's call or three.
Derek Lowe could only relieve so much, Jose Offerman could only bat so many times and Nomar Garciaparra's fielding failed at the most inopportune time for the Red Sox.
And so, despite a surprising 94-win season and an exhilarating first-round victory over Cleveland, Boston heads into the winter the way it has every year since the Babe bounced his baby daughter on his knee: Saying "Wait 'till next year.'"

Adding a Touch of Class and Performance
Have you ever looked at your stock Chevy dash and thought to yourself, Man, I bet I could fit Auto Meter gauges in that dash bezel if I just tried? It is possible. We saw it in a truck one time and decided we had to have that in our own Chevy. There is nothing that brightens up a stock '73-to'87 dashboard like completely replacing the instrument cluster with an array of Auto Meter gauges.
It's not too hard once you actually get into it. If you can do some simple wiring and soldering, then you can make the conversion to your own dash. Most of the time, we see it done on Jeeps or '73-to-'87 Chevys and GMCs, but there is no limitation to custom work.
01. Four gauges are shown. The two on the left are short-sweep electric gauges. On the right are full-sweep electric gauges.Short-sweep electric gauges are the earlier instrument design in use since at least the '80s. They use an resistive type sensor that relies on making a ground connection with whatever they are threaded into. They utilize a 90-degree sweep to cover their entire scale, making fine distinctions between numbers more difficult to discern while traveling at speed. They are a cost effective upgrade over conventional original equipment instruments and are suitable for street and high performance use. Full-sweep electric gauges represent top of the line gauge technology. They have a 270-degree sweep with a higher degree of accuracy than both the (short-sweep) electric or mechanical gauges. They use solid-state sensors which are more compact and resistant to vibration. But the cost for a full-sweep gauge is about double what you would pay for a short-sweep one.Auto Meter's Kris Carlson recommends using a combination of both short-sweep and full-sweep gauges to get most bang for your buck. Oil pressure and temperature gauges can benefit from a full-sweep range, but you can probably get away with short-sweep gauges for fuel and voltage readings.
02. A fair amount of the old Chevy dash bezels crack in some way—including ours—so it was a no-brainer to start with an LMC Truck replacement dash bezel. Since we were putting in such nice gauges, it seemed silly to put them in anything less than a brand new dash bezel.
03. To plug the gauges into the dash bezel, we started cutting the rings on the bezel with a Dremel cutting tool. If you're doing this on a '73-to-'87 Chevy, please note that all dashes are not the same! The four smaller holes on the left of the bezel are actually different sizes in the '80s dashes when compared to the '70s. For the '80s bezel, you might find that 2 5/8 gauges work better than the 2 1/16 gauges (which work better in the '70s dashes).

Ground Rules for June 24 Public Meeting on Transparency
- This public meeting is about transparency at FDA, how the agency can make understandable and useful information available to the public. Comments should be limited to this topic.
- Comments should be limited to 5 minutes to permit adequate time for questions from the panel and to allow time for an open comment session later in the day. During the open comment session, attendees who did not register to speak can make comments.
- Registered speakers will be organized into panels of three. We have attempted to group registered speakers thematically, based on the brief description each speaker provided when he or she registered to speak. Admittedly, this is an imperfect science and speakers in some groups may be speaking on different topics.
- FDA panelists may ask questions to the panel after all three speakers finish delivering their comments.
- We are looking forward to a respectful discussion and exchange of ideas.
- Under no circumstance shall a speaker be interrupted by another attendee at the conference.
- Personal attacks or disparaging comments will not be permitted.
- Comments to the panel should be made only when at a microphone and you have been recognized by the Chair of the meeting.
- The public meeting is being webcast and there will be a verbatim transcript of the meeting publicly available. Do not share or reveal information you would not want to be public.
- In addition to the public meeting, there are other ways to provide comments to the task force. You can post comments to this blog, submit written comments to the Division of Dockets Management, or submit electronic comments to Docket No. FDA-2009-N-0247 at www.regulations.gov. Information about submitting comments to the task force can be found in the June 3, 2009 Federal Register Notice.
We look forward to your participation at the public meeting on June 24.

It would be helpful if FDA could be more accurate about approval dates, and more specifically delays. Example at present: Hemispherx BioPharma, Inc (HEB) was due for an FDA approval/rejection decision for their drug Ampligen by May 25th. FDA then advised HEB via phone that there would be a 1-2 week delay, due purely to staff restructuring. It is nearly a month later and still not a word from the FDA. BDSI is in a similar position.
This has caused havoc with shareholders and has effected most in a negative manner, both by keeping capital tied up and by increased speculation that the drug will not be approved. This is also directly harming the company itself as they cannot take further steps in manufacturing plans, sales etc. In addition there is a shareholder meeting on the 24th of June with some issues being voted on that will be based on the FDA decision. Shareholders cannot make informed choices otherwise and could very definitely be adversely effected.
While I acknowledge this is not the FDA's responsibility, it is however a direct result of the FDA's actions (or lack thereof). If you advise 1-2 weeks delay, stick to it, or at least update accordingly!
FDA is an agency of US government and it is paid and supported by Tax payers.
FDA should have strict rules with specifically delineated deadlines for companies in releasing the DRUG approval or denial decisions in a timely manner. If drug approval decision is kept confidential between FDA and the particular pharmaceutical company then the taxpayers including the company's investors are in a way excluded from the impact of these decisions. In some instances, investors (in this case tax payers) can be victims of stock news related manipulations which can lead to unreasonable amount of money in their investments.
When a investor loses money used to support a particular pharmaceutical company's research and development the eventual loser in the US government with decreased TAX revenues!
FDA must regulate the time line for public release of news related to new drug approvals and denials to allow more transparent drug approval process!

Most of his fellow contestants returned for the last show, with Mark McGrath encapsulating the season well: "Marlee had the biggest week of Celebrity Apprentice," he said. "John Rich had the best season ever in Celebrity Apprentice." Conflict and competition were set aside as Matlin signed along to Rich's performance of his "For The Kids. As for the most unexpected moment of the night, at least in Rich's mind: "I was surprised Donald Trump put on that cowboy hat I brought him. He looked like John Wayne!" Within hours, Rich was off to the media races, visiting live with the Today show, Regis & Kelly and sitting in with Access Hollywood. Look for him on Thursday's Ellen DeGeneres Show. Click the links for video and download the St. Jude-benefiting "For The Kids" here.
Among these were (inhaling deeply) gilded staircases and a gazebo, a stage-wide HD video screen, four ornately framed screens hanging in front of the main screen, eight dancers, a grand piano, sparkler bearers hanging from the light rig, snow, church pews, a ukulele, a minister and wedding party, fireworks, a tree, huge bells emblazoned with "XIII," a front porch, Cirque du Soleil-like acrobats, a banjo, a bridge, lifts that launched dancers and Swift onto the stage, a glitter storm, more trees, confetti, a ballerina, zombies, eight wardrobe changes and a flying balcony Swift used to sail over the crowd during the "Love Story" encore. Speak now? Mission accomplished. People will definitely be talking about this show. Check out her performance of "Story Of Us" here.
Reba was serenaded with musical tributes by Trisha Yearwood and Susie McEntire on "How Blue;" Gill with "Somebody Should Leave;" Garth Brooks performing "Whoever's In New England;" and Kelly Clarkson and Martina McBride with an incredible version of the 1993 Reba and Linda Davis No. 1, "Does He Love You." Hall of Famer Dolly Parton handled the induction. Parton joked that through the years "we've had enough hair to stuff a mattress." Reba summed things up by saying, "Thank you all from the bottom of my heart for being my friends, my helpers along the way. I couldn't have done any of this without you, and by God, I wouldn't have wanted to."

Leveraging CDI at lightspeed with JBoss and JRebel
By now we've seen Contexts and Dependency Injection (CDI) is an essential part for modern Java application development and a core part of the Java EE 6 platform. To put it simply: without the benefits of CDI, the elements and functions of advanced applications would not be orchestrated or communicating well, and developing these apps would be a lot more time-consuming, more prone to bugs & errors and generally worse in a hundred ways.
In this article, we review CDI and have some fun deep-diving into the technical challenges of making complex, instantly-visible changes to Java applications using JBoss AS 7, JBoss Tools, JBoss Weld and JRebel.
As Java developers, whenever we make changes to the structure of our applications, each change to the application functionality is usually composed of several small discrete changes. Lets call them "scenarios" for the purpose of this article.
Here are a few example scenarios we might think of:
- add new method to a class
- add new class to the application
- add new CDI bean
- add new EJB
While working with CDI, as with any other framework, the developer has plenty of options to alter the application behavior just by adding a single annotation to some class or a method. In this way, you don't need to write a ton of code in order to accomplish the same thing.
For instance, using qualifier annotations, we can affect the way injection of the beans is performed by the CDI container.
As CDI is the core technology behind Java EE 6, it is quite important for us to pay attention to JRebel behavior in such environment. JBoss Weld, the reference implementation of CDI, is embedded into Glassfish and JBoss, but it can also be successfully used with a servlet container like Tomcat. JRebel integrates with Weld using a dedicated Weld "plugin", which refreshes the framework metadata caches and wires changed dependencies once a relevant class is updated by JRebel.
For this article, I used JBossAS 7.1.1.Final along with JBoss Tools, since they play well together. The JRebel-Eclipse plugin also seamlessly contributes to JBoss configuration screens, so the tooling support for this kind of experiment is quite smooth.
Before we begin, I'd like to point out that this article is not a yet another CDI tutorial nor an overview of CDI features. There are a lot of good CDI tutorial available already.

- http://antoniogoncalves.org/2011/09/25/injection-with-cdi-part-iii
Start Your Engines!
We'll start off with a simple example that consists of 3 classes and 1 interface:
1) HelloServlet class - the application entry point
2) HelloService class - a service which is injected into HelloServlet using @Inject annotation and it uses the World interface to hold the reference to the object of interest which we will use in our example further on to demonstrate the "change scenarios" (i.e. when making a discrete structural change that affects the behavior of the application)
3) Universe class - the factory which initializes World instance
4) World interface - used inside HelloService and produced (!) by the Universe
@WebServlet("/hello") public class HelloServlet { @Inject HelloService helloService; } public class HelloService { World world = Universe.createWorld(); String sayHello() { return "Hello " + world + "!"; } } public class Universe { public World createWorld(){ return new World(){ @Override public String toString(){ return "World"; } }; } }
So in this state HelloService#sayHello() returns "Hello World!" (No kidding, Sherlock!). The only place where CDI is used currently is the injection of HelloService instance into HelloServlet. We can also see that the World instance in HelloService is created by Universe. This is where we can start with the modifications, assuming that the application is already deployed to the container.
We use the term "change scenarios" to refer to when we want to make a discrete structural change that affects the behavior of the application. How many of such scenarios can you think of in case of pure CDI application? How many of such scenarios can you think on in case if CDI is used to support other technologies, for instance, in conjunction with JAX-RS framework? A lot. We'll review just some basic ones here.
Add @Inject & Producer Method
In regards to the example described above, where the World instance is created by Universe factory method, this is the first scenario that we could undertake for the demonstration. In the ideal CDI world, the World instance should have been injected rather than created explicitly.
So instead of World world = Universe.createWorld() we will use @Inject World world:
public class HelloService { @Inject World world; String sayHello() { return "Hello " + world + "!"; } }
As we do not have a default instance of the World in our application yet, but we do have a method that can produce the instances of World, we can mark it with @Produces annotation so it will be able to register World beans in CDI container.
public class Universe { @Produces public static World createWorld(){ return new World(){ @Override public String toString(){ return "Injected World"; } }; } }
Remember, that the application is already deployed and running. Therefore, we change the toString method to return "Injected World", just to see if the new logic is applied and the World instance was injected correctly.
Now, HelloService#sayHello() returns "Hello Injected World!". Wow! It worked!
In the console we could see the following messages:
17:28:34,181 INFO [stdout] (http-localhost-127.0.0.1-8080-1) [2012-07-19 17:28:34] JRebel: Reloading class 'org.jboss.as.quickstarts.helloworld.HelloService'. 17:28:34,232 INFO [stdout] (http-localhost-127.0.0.1-8080-1) [2012-07-19 17:28:34] JRebel-Weld: Reconfiguring bean with name 'null' [class org.jboss.as.quickstarts.helloworld.HelloService] 17:28:34,241 INFO [stdout] (http-localhost-127.0.0.1-8080-1) [2012-07-19 17:28:34] JRebel: Reloading class 'org.jboss.as.quickstarts.helloworld.Universe'. 17:28:34,244 INFO [stdout] (http-localhost-127.0.0.1-8080-1) [2012-07-19 17:28:34] JRebel: Reloading class 'org.jboss.as.quickstarts.helloworld.Universe$1'. 17:28:34,292 INFO [stdout] (http-localhost-127.0.0.1-8080-1) [2012-07-19 17:28:34] JRebel-Weld: Reconfiguring bean with name 'null' [class org.jboss.as.quickstarts.helloworld.Universe]
First, JRebel will reload HelloService class since our request will hit it first by calling the sayHello() method, as this bean is reloaded, an internal JRebel even forces it to reconfigure the corresponding bean inside the Weld container, so we can see the "Reconfiguring bean..." message.
Next, while refreshing the metadata, the Universe class will be touched and reloaded as well as the corresponding bean metadata in the CDI container. Splendid! After all the actions World instance gets injected from producer method into the instance field
We just described a single JRebel test case for CDI - this is how we test every framework integration. We could also combine the scenarios to create more complicated tests which is sometimes also useful as CDI spawns across different parts for the platform and we need to ensure that JRebel would work fine in all situations.
Qualifier Annotations
Continuing with the same example, what if our Universe could produce different blends of World instances and we would like to select a particular one. This is where we can take a look at the qualifier annotations and make up a change scenario. We'll add a new producer method which will also return an instance of World, but we'll qualify it as a "Fantasy World" with @Fantasy annotation so that the CDI container can distinguish the sources of the produced World instances. To tell that, we now want to inject the fantasy World instance into HelloService we can also use the same annotation for the field declaration.
public class HelloService { @Inject @Fantasy World world; String sayHello() { return "Hello " + world + "!"; } } public class Universe { @Produces public static World createWorld(){ return new World(){ @Override public String toString(){ return "Injected World"; } }; } @Produces @Fantasy World createFantasyWorld(){ return new World(){ @Override public String toString(){ return "Fantasy World"; } }; } }
Voila! HelloService#sayHello returns "Hello Fantasy World!"
The examples above are really simple, but they provide a workflow example in which a developer might introduce changes to the application source code. If you can imagine, how many proxies the CDI container produces internally in order to create the cross-bean injections, you can project the scope of the integration JRebel has to cover.
Actually, it is bit harder than might think initially, as the programming model advocated with CDI is very loose. The added annotation for a method at one part of the application can affect the behavior of the application at the other side.
The Challenge: Annotation-Driven Programming Model
CDI is a static model - the beans, and where they are injected, is validated when the application starts. This is quite different from a programmatic approach, which is inherently lazy. This imposes a challenge on how JRebel should handle various combinations of changes.
CDI will detect ambiguities between candidate beans when injecting fields, methods and constructors. Imagine, we have a plain class without any annotations; now we change the source and put a qualifier on it. From the JRebel point of view, this annotation came from nowhere. To discover it, JRebel has to scan the classpath, and make sure that we can reconfigure the CDI container correctly.
This challenge isn't one we face only for CDI. As CDI is at the very core of Java platform, it influences the whole of the programming model.
To Sum Up
Hopefully this tutorial has been able to push one thing through your forehead into your gray matter: If you aren't using CDI for building modern Java apps, then you are not taking advantage of an important feature of the Java EE 6 spec.
Ultimately, using CDI with JRebel and your favorite tools from JBoss is going to give you the advanced capabilities you need for making modern Java apps without having to spend almost any time dealing with app server restarts. It's like wrapping Charlie Sheen around a phoenix and adding into your technology stack. Crazy, fast and fiery :-)

I was bit confused between Dr. Morepen and Omron. Last time i purchased Dr. Morepen BP One, it was ok i gifted to somebody, This time i purchased Omron 7203 BP monitor. I found Omron good in comparison to Dr. Morepen specifically the features and the quality. It's very easy to use and show accurate readings!!
I just love the delivery excellence of flipkart.
The services are uncomparable!!
Very easy , pretty accurate readings.
The auto inflation and deflation functions are great
Filpkart packing and delivery timelines are uncomparable.
On recommendation by a friend of mine, I ordered for the Above BP monitor as I have a higher trend of blood pressure. I received the parcel on 11th day of my placing order (probably b'cos of my remote location). It was very nicely packed and exactly in the same form as promised. I was very sueprised at the ease of using the machine. Even a housewife without any training can easily use it to check her own or other's BP. I suppose it is giving readings with fair degree of accuracy though I am yet to compare it with a standard one in a doctor's place. As it costs nothing to take a reading, I have already taken readings of at least 80 people with this and they are suggesting that the readings are close to thei known values. Moreover, it has added advantage of checking the BP under various circumstances like after a brisk walk or even when you are angry with your wife/husband (lol). So, I would highly recommend this product to others who find it a bit difficult to go to a doctor everytime for checking their BP/pulse rate.
I bought this product for my old parents who need regular monitoring of BP.The readings shown by this BP monitor are highly inaccurate(on the plus side).We have been using it for the past one month and since it was felt the readings were incorrect we got the BP checked at a clinic using a manual type Sphygmomanometer and this equipment one after the another. The result given by this equipment was shockingly incorrect!! It gives widely different readings even when two readings are taken on the same person one after the another!! I have now packed the monitor and kept it away
I would recommend a strong"NEVER BUY" for this product..
I bought this product in the month of May from Flipkart [however i was very apprehensive in using it for buying medical equipment] and it was a happy experience and they delivered the product within three days in a very good condition.
But I was surprised to see that the cover [bag] for the product was missing which normally comes when you buy it from any other retailer. The product started malfunctioning within 3-4 months and when I contacted the Flipkart service desk they politely redirected me to omron website which does not even have a number where you can call or escalate the issue. There is a long enquiry form which you have to fill which does not even ask for your product id/bill number which clearly suggests that it is not meant for after sales service.
I would strongly suggest Flipkart team to be a little cautious in choosing the vendor which they deal with and there has to be a prudent after sales service as well. We are trusting Flipkart and buying from there and hence they must provide an end to end solution.

"It is behind us now." With that statement, Professional Convention Management Association Chairman Rick Grimes closed what he called a "hurtful" chapter in PCMA's book. The Birmingham, Ala.-based organization has agreed to pay a settlement in the sexual harassment lawsuit filed by a former employee a year ago. Because a nondisclosure statement is part of the settlement agreement, PCMA will not reveal any details.
The lawsuit was brought by former controller Pamela M. Boyles, who alleged that her supervisor, William J. Myers, CAE, CMP, created a sexually hostile environment. Myers, who was COO, was fired by PCMA for violating its sexual harassment policy after the lawsuit was filed. Myers denied all charges, as did PCMA, despite its firing of Myers.
"I'm delighted it's over," Grimes says. "We don't tolerate [sexual harassment], so it's especially hurtful to be accused of it."

text: Are we talking a thermostatically controlled valve, or just one with a separate temp and volume control? It does make a difference. Depending on the rough-in valve, Delta has three different types of shower valves: pressure balanced single handle, separate temp and volume pressure balanced, and two knob thermostatically controlled. A properly working thermostatically controlled valve should remain pretty consistent temperature. Either of the other two will vary based on the WH outlet temp and the incoming cold water temp. Maybe a call to Delta would help sort out the problem.

45 degrees is the same as vertical.
Or you can cut the drain out and move it to the correct location, moving the vent at the same time.
With many sinks, I arm over to allow for backing above, or in your case a wall mount faucet.
I am moving along with a bathroom remodel project and I have hit a snag on the bathroom sink. The vanity is an antique table with a vessel sink. The table is open on the bottom so the P trap will be exposed. The faucet we chose is a Watermark Designs wall mount faucet with a hot and cold knob. The existing 1 1/2 drain currently runs from a turn below the base plate of the wall vertically to a height of about 46 inches where it makes a left turn and connects to the vent.
The existing drain is about an inch and a half left of the center of the new sink but I figure I can compensate for that with the P-Trap. The vertical vent above the drain is the problem. I read that vents are not to run horizontal except 6 inches above the flood level. 6 inches above the flood level is still above my wall mount faucet. Any advice as to how to get the ABS out of the way and stay within the UPC?

I guess I am not sure what it means to "arm over." Do you have any photos? Terry, you have been a lifesaver in this project, Thanks
Bring the drain line up through the floor either to the left or the right of the sink location. Put the tee at the desired height but instead of facing it out the wall turn it towards the center of the sink location. Put in a piece of pipe with an elbow turning out the wall. It is actually the best way to drain a pedestal type sink or a sink with a wall mount faucet.
Here is what I have now. I plan to cut the copper and continue the lines up the the wall mount height. The hold which is visible in the base plate of the wall (left of the giant gouge) is the new hole i drilled to connect the vent to the toilet drain (out of frame). So if I cut the ABS behind the existing turn upwards and move it left to say the giant gouge (that is where I removed the old vent) then up to the sanitary tee and finally make a turn 6 inches above the flood level and connect to the vent I should be good...right? Ill maintain the 1/4 in per foot for the 1.5 ft then connect a bend for the p-trap. Do I need to worry about the proximity of the sink drain to the toilet vent or am I completely over thinking this?
Yes, that would work.

Local high school football players hoping to take their game to the next level have a chance to boost their college stock this weekend.
The AthElite Factory and Scrimmage Play are teaming up for the Central Virginia Elite Combine, this Sunday at 1 p.m. at Monticello High School.
Players will be timed and tested in four events: the 40-yard dash, speed shuttle, L-Drill, and broad jump. Official times are recorded, and can be reported to college coaches during the recruiting process.
Interested high school players can register here.
Last year's combine at Monticello drew roughly 50 players, with participants coming from more than a dozen local schools. Notable participants last year included Charlottesville's Rashard Davis (who signed to play football at James Madison last month), Fluvanna's Dashon Tibbs (who recently accepted a walk-on offer from Richmond), and underclassmen like Monticello's TJ Tillery and Charlottesville's Chris Thurston.

We are having an afternoon like we have not seen in a long time. The mercury hit 100 degrees in South Bend.
You have to turn the calendar back nearly 13 years to July 30, 1999 when people in South Bend saw temperatures reach 100 degrees. The last time we saw 100 in June was way back in 1988 when the temp was 104 on the 25th of the month.
The temp climbed as high as 102 in Goshen. Not too far away in Fort Wayne, it reached a sultry 103.
According to WSBT meteorologist Cari Peugeot, South Bend's all-time warmest June temperature is 106, but that occurred on June 1, 1934. Only ten other days in recorded history has the mercury reached the 100 degree mark. All were in 1933, 1934, 1953 and 1988.
If you think this is an extremely hot June, you're right, but the month is far from the record. June 1933 had 21 days of at least 90 degree weather. So far in June 2012, counting today, we've had 9 days of 90-plus temps.
If our forecast for the rest of June is correct, there will only be 11 total days at 90+, which is about half of what the record June was.
This Saturday's fireworks at St. Patrick's County Park in South Bend have been postponed. That word Thursday afternoon from Clay Fire Territory Fire Chief John Vance. Vance says legally, he can only postpone them, not cancel them, due to the laws on the books.
Vance says the fireworks are off unless we get a significant amount of rainfall between now and Saturday night, but that's doubtful. No new date has been set.
The South Bend Symphony is scheduled to perform its July 4th patriotic show at St. Patrick's Park Saturday, which was to include fireworks.
The heat is only making the dry conditions worse, and WSBT learned on Thursday Elkhart's 4th of July fireworks show at Rice Field has been canceled because of the drought. And Mayor Dick Moore is asking Elkhart residents not to fire off their own fireworks.
In a written news release, Moore said he feels a ban on the use of fireworks is in the best interest of the people of Elkhart during these extreme drought conditions. He says legal research initiatives shows no local official has the authority to order a ban. "Common sense must prevail and the best common sense is to not use personal fireworks at all," said Moore.
The annual fireworks show in Goshen at the Black Squirrel Golf Course has also been called off, for now. The 23rd annual Celebrate America Patriotic Program and Fireworks was scheduled for Sunday, July 1. Celebrate America President Rev. Gregg Lanzen says organizers were concerned about the potential for heat-induced illnesses for some of the attendees. The show many be rescheduled for a later date, but no date has been decided.
Heat stroke, dehydration and heat exhaustion become a lot more common when temperatures reach near 100 degrees.
Young children and the elderly are most at risk today, especially people who have diabetes or hypertension, because the medications they are on make them more sensitive.

Honors Learning Community & FIGs
Dedicated to the holistic development of students in support of the Saint Louis University mission, the Honors Learning Community strives to develop active citizens through an emphasis on service, leadership, and a deeper appreciation of diversity by fostering an interdisciplinary, integrated learning experience for first and second year students. The Honors Learning Community is an environment where Honors students develop meaningful relationships with their peers as well as faculty and staff, grow intellectually through discourse and shared experiences, and establish connections to the Saint Louis University community.
Honors students may elect to live in the Honors Learning Community their first and second years at Saint Louis University. Fusz Hall provides a residence for 80 Honors students on two floors set aside for Honors students. Residence hall rooms are either single or double occupancy, and each floor has a community lounge. Students interested in Honors housing should note their preference on their housing application in the spring.
Students may also elect to participate in an Honors FIG (First Year Interest Group) where a core group of students take three or four courses together and live together in the Honors Learning Community. Currently, the Honors program offers two FIGs: one Life-Science FIG and one general FIG. Students who elect to join a FIG will be automatically enrolled in a Crossroads class and two or three other classes in common.
For more information about the Honors Learning Community and the Honors FIGs, visit the Learning Community website.
