Bed Fan with Wireless Remote
Keep cool between the sheets. Sleep better tonight.
Circulates air under the sheets to disperse built-up body heat and keep you comfortable all night long.
- Great for couples with different temperature preferences, naturally warm-bodied people, and for alleviating night sweats
- Sends a breeze over the body rather than the entire house–turn off the AC and save on cooling costs
- More effective and efficient than traditional cooling methods, which only affect the air outside the sheets
- Adjustable height clears thick to ultra-thick mattresses on a variety of bed frames
- Wireless remote is backlit upon touch, has variable speed, and sits on the nightstand for easy-to-reach adjusting
Kicking the sheets to the end of the bed? Try Bed Fan. It tucks between the top and bottom sheets to cool your body–the source of the heat–instead of the entire house so you can save on cooling costs. Bed Fan disperses built-up body heat with a cool, refreshing breeze between the sheets.
Perfect for couples with different preferences!
Some people sleep hot under only a sheet. Others want layers of blankets. And there are others who sleep hot and cold–they're often convicted in the morning of stealing the covers or kicking them to the bottom of the bed. Bed Fan to the rescue. It sits at the foot or side of the bed and keeps cool, fresh air moving between your top and bottom sheets. Position the Bed Fan to one side, or in the middle for both sleepers. Or buy two–one for each of you. Choose your level of cool with the wireless remote.
Bed Fan's wireless remote sits on the nightstand for easy-to-reach adjusting.
Powered by 2 AA batteries (not included), the wireless remote is backlit upon touch so you can see it as you adjust it at night. It controls the powerful dual fans that move up to 680 feet of air a minute dispersing built-up body heat under the sheets. You'll sleep comfortably all night long as the the Bed Fan blows a refreshing breeze. If you wake up too warm, simply adjust the fan with the wireless remote. Twist the top to increase or decrease the fan's intensity. With the remote at your bedside, you can adjust it without getting out of the covers–helping you get back to sleep faster.
Adjusts to fit your bed frame and mattress height.
The dual-fan reversible base draws air from under the bed or can face outward for platform bed frames that sit on the floor. Once your base is positioned, adjust the height to clear the top of your mattress. The fan's height extends an additional foot from its shortest position to accommodate taller beds and thicker mattresses.

The reviews you read about this product are all right. The remote never really works unless you hold it next to the unit. This thing is made extremely cheaply and really should not cost what it does. One thing I noticed that others don't complain about, is it vibrates my bed. It is extremely uncomfortable when I am trying to go to bed. To avoid this issue, I simply turn it on a lower setting.
With that being said, I love it! It keeps me extremely cool during the night. So yes, I'm keeping it, but I think they could do a better job manufacturing it.

This fan works. It cools without any question. However, it is noisy. The remote work most of the time. The "filter Screen" pops off almost as soon as the fan starts. Adjusting the height is a pain. The tiny, flimsy levers are worthless. To make it even more worthless.... have a dog step on the fan head while getting out of bed and the little, flimsy levels/tabs will snap right off making it impossible to ever adjust the height again.

Comments about Bed Fan with Wireless Remote:
My husband bought this for me as a gift and I have been using it for about a year. I'm a breast cancer survivor & had to start taking medication that threw me into night sweats. I nearly froze everyone out of the house trying to keep cool at night. Someone else said they use a yoga cord to keep it in place which is a great idea. I just tuck the sheets under the mattress on both sides of the fan & that does the trick. I put it on my side of the bed by my feet & the air billows under the sheets all the way to my neck. I turn it on & off several times a night, pretty much in my sleep. I actually get too cool once my hot flash is over! If this fan ever breaks or wears out, I will buy another one the very next day. My nights went from agonizing & sleep deprived to cool & comfortable. BEST GIFT EVER!

I originally got a bed fan a few years as a Christmas gift. It wasn't Brookstone brand but another. That one broke - often. But the concept was so good, I had to have another. I bought the Brookstone bed fan and can't tell enough people about it. I love it! The remote is great because it's wireless and adjustable. I have a footboard on my bed and this is about the same height. I think it also helps keep it stable. If you get hot when you sleep, this is the answer. I use it year round.

Comments about Bed Fan with Wireless Remote:
Purchased this item not knowing what to expect. Some reviews were very negative due the poor design. Got the fan and it does really seem to make a big difference for my wife during her hot flashes at night.
I agree that the design is poor but I found a easy way to fixt he problem. I used a old yoga strap for streatching. Yoga staps are typically 7-8 ft long with (2) loose rings on one end. I pushed one end of the strap up about an arms length between the mattress and box springs. Next I wrapped the strap around the fan and snaked the other side up between the mattress and box springs. This formed a tight strap around the fan. Easy to remove, very stable and when yhou lay on the bed your own weight helps keep the strap from moving. This really made a difference. Without this easy fix-- I would have probably sent it back. Hope it helps!

Speaking the Truth
Gary is an author, trial lawyer, Mequon-area resident and town of Cedarburg supervisor. He is a columnist for the News Graphic and writes for several Wisconsin area magazines and is a national columnist with The American Thinker and PJ Media. He lives with his wife, Lisa, and has three sons ages 18 to 28. Gary won Ozaukee County in his bid for the Wisconsin Assembly's 60th District in 2011, but came up just 58 votes short.
It's Time For the 'Blame America Crowd' To Move To VenezuelaWhite males, Big Oil, and Christianity. They have long been punching bags of the left. Sadly, America itself has recently joined this short list of approved targets for abuse and blame. And nobody seems to care.
It seems there are now those who want to blame America for everything from melting polar ice to terrorism. Once limited to left-wing blogs and university campuses, this 'blame America' cancer has become so trendy and widely accepted that even Hollywood icons and front-running presidential candidates engage in its excesses with impunity.
At a campaign stop in Elkhart, Indiana, a seven-year-old girl asked Barack Obama why he wants to be President — and he replied, "America is …, uh, is no longer, uh … what it could be, what it once was. And I say to myself, I don't want that future for my children." I'm confused. Last February, Michele Obama said that she was proud of her country for the first time in her life. Somebody is off the teleprompter script.
America stands as the lone superpower in the world. Its economic muscle and social philanthropy are unparalleled in the history of mankind. Ours is the country of dreams and opportunity, where even committing crimes or sneaking into the country illegally do not disqualify you from great opportunity or unlimited government largesse.
It is the country of unbridled freedom. Too much, perhaps. Freedom of speech, religion, and the press. I've never seen a freedom-hater who liked America.
Ours is the country of Dr. Seuss, college football, Wal-Mart, Thanksgiving, the hamburger, the automobile, Harley-Davidson, and Norman Rockwell. It is the country of barbecue and an economy that powers the world with courage and capital and ingenuity and imagination. We capture the imagination of the world.
Our standard of living is the envy of the free world and our work ethic carved an empire out of a barren continent in less than a century. Despite a virtual occupation – not by armies and force, but by illegal immigration – we continue to hold open our borders to the world's tired, poor and hungry masses. America spends more in foreign aid than any other country. When the going gets tough, Americans keep giving - to the tune of trillions and trillions of dollars this country will never see again. We are the biggest player in the International Monetary Fund, World Bank, and the United Nations.
So why is it that so many free and prosperous Americans have so much blame and animosity for their own country? Why is it that Barack Obama's pastor and 20-year mentor preaches that blacks should sing "God D*** America" instead of "God Bless America?" After all, we ended slavery in the free world.
It was the famed psychiatrist Karl Menninger who once wrote, "The extraordinary propensity of the human being to join hands with external forces in an attack upon his own existence is one of the most remarkable of biological phenomena." Sadly, this remarkable biological phenomenon is taking place right here in America.
It seems that even Islamic fundamentalists do not hate and blame America the way that some Americans do. And I've had enough of it.
Bill Maher has said that he'd rather live in Paris than in places where cheese only comes in individually-wrapped slices. By the way, this is the same guy who called the Pope a child molester. Margaret Cho said that Bush would be Hitler if he only applied himself. George Carlin, may he rest in peace, recently said that "I'm just about (being) anti-United States. I don't like the way this country operates. I think we've ruined this place."
George Clooney has said of our military that "we can't beat anybody anymore." Jane Fonda said, "I don't know if a country where the people are so ignorant of reality and of history, if you can call that a free world." Janeane Garofalo stated that "Our forefathers were slave-owning rich white guys who wanted it their way. So when I see the American flag, I go, 'Oh my God, you're insulting me'."
Richard Gere mumbled that "America has never paid any attention to other people. Kate Hudson said "We're the most annoying, boisterous creatures in the world. I mean we come in and we eat mounds of food, and we're like, 'Where's the ketchup for our French fries?"
Gwyneth Paltrow – who named her kids Apple and Moses - says we're "over-patriotic." Hugo Chavez fan Danny Glover says America has been one of the main purveyors of violence in this world. Michael Moore's contempt for his country was showing when he said, "Should such an ignorant people lead the world?"
Speaking as a "citizen of the world" in Germany, Barack Obama found it irresistible to apologize for America. He said, "Will we welcome immigrants from different lands, and shun discrimination against those who don't look like us or worship like we do, and keep the promise of equality and opportunity for all of our people?" As though we don't already do those things, but will under an Obama administration. He said that we've struggled to keep the promise of liberty and equality for all of our people, and apologized for torture. Torture! Are you kidding me? In Germany, of all countries.
Just this month, after seeing selected eye-candy architecture during the Beijing Olympics, Obama dissed America once again by blurting out that China's infrastructure – their ports, train systems, and airports - are "vastly superior" to ours now. We know what he's been smoking, because he's told us. But come on. China? China, with its zero pollution controls, zero labor unions and rampant child labor? China, with its complete lack of construction standards in the countryside that allows the collapse of thousands of buildings including schools when a moderate earthquake hits, killing tens of thousands? China, with its millions suffering malnutrition, its polluted rivers and its holes in the ground that serve as toilets? That China?
I'm tired of people blaming and apologizing for my country. My country has nothing to apologize for – except for giving up countless of its own young lives to liberate millions and end Fascism, Nazism, and Communism in our time. And while we didn't invent the ancient institution of slavery, we sure ended it.
Presidential candidates ought to campaign in America, not abroad. But when a presidential candidate or a member of Congress does address other nations, he or she should be reminding the world how many countries the United States has liberated, including Western Europe from the ***, much of Asia from the Japanese, Panama from Noriega, Iraq from Saddam, and on and on. French President Nicolas Sarkozy praised America and reminded the world of these things earlier this year. Sadly, however, one of our own presidential candidates can't seem to bring himself to do the same. If it wasn't for America, Obama's speech to the German people could today have been given in Paris, London, or Cairo – in German.
Some people have a difficult time wearing a flag pin on their lapel. Others won't say the Pledge of Allegiance. Today it is trendy to bash America on college campuses and at Democratic Party fund-raisers. Some think it is enlightened to literally hate the United States of America, and to openly say so. Just Google the words "hate America." Yet, they have that right only because America protects it for them. Try the same stunt in China and you'll be loving America from a high-tech prison cell without lights or running water.
So, to every American who can't help but blame this country for everything from 9/11 to the Black Death, who can't find one nice word to say about the greatest country in the history of mankind, or who can't stop apologizing for their country, I have one word - leave.
America isn't perfect. But it's close. We don't need change – we need more patriots. If you don't like it here – leave. Some bold Americans have already taken the first step so that you don't have to. Susan Sarandon has promised to leave America if John McCain is elected. Alec Baldwin promised to leave if Bush was elected, but lost his nerve. Barbra Streisand, Lynn Redgrave, Robert Altman, and Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder made similar promises, but they're all still here. I wonder why.
In fact, the only person known to have actually made good on his promise to leave America is Pierre Salinger, former press secretary to President Kennedy. Pierre followed through on his promise to move to France if Bush was elected, but died shortly thereafter. I'm sure somewhere, somebody is blaming America for that too.
The Sub-Prime Mortgage Crisis and The Law of Unintended ConsequencesWe are currently knee-deep in a financial crisis that stems from the U.S. housing market, where fallout from the imploding subprime mortgage market has spilled over into the credit markets, as well as domestic and global stock markets. The stock markets will rebound. They always do. Instinctively, politicans call for more regulations to fix the problem. However, it was not a paucity of regulations which got us in this mess. It was government's meddling in the free market system and liberal social engineering with government agencies and other people's money.
It makes for good campaign stump speeches to pound the podium and yell about greedy bankers and predatory lending practices. People cheer, hope for more bailouts, and even vote for the candidate who pounds and yells the loudest. These are the populist times we live in. But if we take both a deep breath and a step back, I think we'll see that the problem was not the private sector, capitalism, a lack of regulations, or the free market system – the usual suspects. The culprit was government masquerading as private enterprise and engineering social utopia on the backs of taxpayers. The messes taxpayers are left to face are the unintended consequences of good intentions.
Sub-prime mortgages are mortgages given at a higher interest rate to people who, according to traditional banking models, will not be able to repay the loans. They are known also as B-paper, near-prime, non-prime, or second chance mortgages. They are usually given away to poorer and minority borrowers with bad credit who would not otherwise qualify for such a mortgage. They are traditionally accompanied by higher interest rates, fees and costs. and frequently with adjustable rates which, unless the homeowner is able to continually refinance in an era of inflated housing prices, will eventually result in default of the loan. They involve giving loans to people usually cannot repay the loan. Over 14% of U.S. mortgages are sub-prime. Washington even found a way to award sub-prime mortgages with little or no down payment, little or no closing costs, and little risk to anybody except the taxpayer.
Fannie Mae was created in 1938 as part of FDR's New Deal. Fannie Mae (short for Federal National Mortgage Association) was established as a "government-sponsored enterprise" (GSE) in order to provide local banks with access to federal dollars in an attempt to provide "affordable housing" for those who couldn't afford mortgages. How nice. This led to the secondary mortgage market, where Fannie Mae borrowed from other institutions and even foreign governments at low rates and used the money to buy these sub-prime mortgages from legitimate mortgage lenders, even reselling many of them to Wall Street investment firms. Fannie Mae began operating as a GSE, generating profits for stock holders while enjoying the benefits of government backing and exemption from taxation.
Freddie Mac (short for Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation), a similar GSE created in 1970 to avoid monopolization of the market, and Fannie Mae controlled over 90% of the secondary mortgage market. Their assets are nearly 50% greater than the nation's largest bank, which is why when they started to be used as a political tool, things went awry.
Both Fannie and Freddie are overseen and regulated by another huge federal bureaucracy known as the Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight (OFHEO). Despite plenty of government regulation, Fannie Mae, run primarily by Democrats with big hearts, gave away lots of taxpayer money to far-left pet projects and organizations, including the Congressional Black Caucus, Jesse Jackson's Rainbow Coalition, ACORN (known for its voter fraud and Obama's tenure there), the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, to name a few. The top five politicians receiving donations from Fannie Mae were Democrats, including the top two: Chris Dodd and Barack Obama. John McCain received a little and Sarah Palin took nothing.
It was Jimmy Carter and the Democrat Congress who put in place the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974. This populist legislation pressured private financial institutions to make risky loans to people with a history of delinquencies, bankruptcies, job instability, and high debt-to-income ratios – all for the purpose of providing "affordable housing." These loans would not have been made using traditional banking and mortgage guidelines and practices.
Sub-prime lenders saw what Fannie and Freddie were doing and began to move away from using their own deposits to back their mortgages. They began borrowing money from Wall Street investment firms, who thus became intertwined in the practice. Wall Street bundled the mortgages and sold the cash flow from them as bonds – known as "mortgage-backed securities." Wall Street's ability to purchase and securitize these obligations caused local lenders to ignore risks they otherwise wouldn't have. The entire practice of sub-prime lending, with Fannie and Freddie leading by example, was encouraged – and even compelled – by Washington.
In 1995, Bill Clinton renewed efforts to force private mortgage companies and lenders to create "affordable housing" for people who wouldn't qualify for traditional mortgages. Attorney General Janet Reno and Assistant Secretary for Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity Roberta Achtenberg implemented even more regulations focused on putting pressure on legitimate mortgage institutions to give more and more risky loans, and accused those who didn't of "redlining" – accusing those who employed sound lending principles of being racist.
Reno and Achtenberg threatened these institutions with government sanctions if the private companies didn't make these politically correct loans. "There will be investigations if you do not follow these regulations, if you don't make loans to these people," Reno is quoted as saying. Thus the sub-prime market was forced onto private companies, as legitimate Wall Street mortgage lenders and brokers were compelled to buy more of the risky paper from Fannie, Freddie, and even traditional mortgage lenders.
Some Republicans were not fooled by the good intentions. In 1997, Republican Congressman Jim Leach called for an investigation into the investment practices of Freddie Mac. The Democrat Congress did not listen and the investigation went nowhere.
Fannie Mae CEO Daniel Mudd gave a tear-jerker speech to Congress, telling them that he was "tearing down the barriers to delivering on the American Dream." How nice. Little did we know he was tearing down our economy in the process. But one person did know.
President George Bush was not fooled. In 2003 Bush proposed the most significant regulatory overhaul in the housing finance industry since the savings and loan crisis, including a new agency to oversee Fannie and Freddie. The Democrats cried foul, and Barney Frank said Melvin Watt accused Bush of wanting this oversight committee so he could weaken the bargaining power of poorer families. Bush's proposed regulations could not even get a vote in the Senate.
Countrywide Financial Corp., the nation's largest mortgage lender and home loan servicer, tried to emulate the success of Fannie Mae. It's CEO, Angelo Mozilo, gave speeches on mortgage social engineering and his dream of everybody owning a home. How nice. Countrywide gave cut-rate mortgages to congressmen, journalists and other V.I.P.'s in an effort to curry favor. The Countrywide Six – all Democrats – also received benefits and favorable loans from Countrywide in exchange for support in Congress.
A 2003 investigation by the Justice Department and the SEC into the accounting practices at Freddie Mac revealed fraudulent accounting practices to the tune of nearly $5 billion dollars and resulted in the termination of three of the company's top executives. This included Fannie Mae chairman and CEO Franklin Raines, who had benefitted to the tune of more than $90 million from 1998 to 2003. Raines, who is black, is now an economic advisor to Barack Obama, according to the Washington Post. Former board member Jim Johnson, who is white, had to resign recently from Obama's campaign because it was revealed he got sweetheart deals from Countrywide Financial Mortgage Company.
From 2001 to 2005, American homeowners took a ride on the world housing bubble. Home prices climbed and climbed, peaking in 2005. This rise in home prices masked the bad loans made by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and other sub-primers, because even a foreclosure would leave the lender with property worth more than the loan balance. Then the housing bubble burst. Values of residential property plummeted, interest rates rose, and more than 1.5 million people lost their homes. There are more than 8,000 new foreclosure filings every day. Wall Street investers started withdrawing money and mortgage insurers like Milwaukee's MGIC were the first responders called on to clean up the mess. Lenders, with less cash, offered fewer loans and fewer opportunities to refinance high interest loans and ARM's. Suddenly, Wall Street was at risk and the unintended consequences of those pushing the risky loans were laid bare.
All roads in this crisis lead to Fannie and Freddie. The U.S. Treasury and Federal Reserve are looking at the prospect of a $1 trillion bailout of this New Deal experiment, in order to prevent the subprime crisis from crashing the world economy. The Bear Stearns bailout, the Lehman Brothers bankruptcy, the sale of Merrill Lynch & Company, and now a drop of more than 62% in AIG's share price, all flowed from Fannie and Freddie and Washington's good intentions. Those good intentions now expose taxpayers to more than $1 trillion in liabilities.
Once again, we see the law of unintended consequences on display. Like the Social Security and Medicare debacle which nobody in Washington has the stones to tackle, this financial holocaust is courtesy of liberal idealism and socialist policies forced on private institutions and implemented in large scale on the backs and wallets of others. While there were plenty of private companies eager to jump on the greed train when things were going well, this catastrophe is typical of what happens when government gets its hands on any part of our economy.
Just imagine what the results will look like if Barack Obama is elected and we turn our health care industry – one-third of our nation's economy - over to these same well-intentioned government bureaucrats. We'll be looking into the teeth of the unintended consequences of more good intentions for the next century – if we last that long.

I have been working at Hewlett-Packard full-time for more than 3 years
Pros – My first job out of school, so I have to thank them for that. My peers are great, but recently at least half my group left, because we're all being held back, severely over-worked and underpaid. Lower management (my direct supervisor and their boss) are great and attentive to me and my peers, but upper management who sits in the office with us all share a very discouraging elitist attitude.
Cons – (Upper) management elitism. We use YEARS old technology to do our jobs, which makes us highly unproductive. They give us the cheapest, slowest equipment the company sells to work off of. With so many CEO turnovers, no one has a CLUE what direction this once great company is going. Pay is below market for my area at least. Promotion are VERY few and far between. My team is highly discouraged because as good as all of us are after several YEARS of dedication, the company demoralizes us by keeping us at New Hire status (and pay).
Advice to Senior Management – Take time to show appreciation to your team. And not buying t-shirts or walking around pretending to care about us. We are the world's largest technology firm, yet we use the most outdated, antiquated equipment and technologies. Listen to us when we have suggestions for newer/faster technologies.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

A Ferrari customer with inside information told CarsUK that the upcoming Ferrari Enzo-replacement codenamed the F70/FX70 will utilize a turbocharged V-8 for propulsion instead of a V-12 engine. In talking to Ferrari, the unnamed customer said that they told him that turbo lag "is no longer an issue."
The F40, a car built to celebrate 40 years of Ferrari and the last Ferrari built under Enzo Ferrari's supervision, was powered by a 3.0-liter twin-turbo V-8 making 478 hp and 425 lbs.-ft. of torque. It was replaced in 1995 by the Ferrari F50, which was powered by a 4.7-liter V-12 making 520 hp and 347 lbs.-ft. of torque.
CarUK is reporting that Ferrari built a V-12 engine making 800 hp and a V-8 engine making 700 hp while trying to decide which would be best for the future supercar. Although the V-12 was favored by the "heart" of Ferrari, the "head" of Ferrari decided to go with the V-8.

Search called off for missing East Grand Forks boyVolunteers searching for the missing rural East Grand Forks boy, Anthony Kuznia, 11, have been recalled, according to officials and volunteers.
By: Herald Staff Reports, Grand Forks Herald
Volunteers searching for the missing rural East Grand Forks boy, Anthony Kuznia, 11, have been recalled, according to officials and volunteers.
East Grand Forks Police Chief Mike Hedlund would not confirm if the boy had been found, though volunteer searchers had their suspicions.
"I searched four times today. I was ready to search again, and they told me they didn't want any more people signed up," said Jamie Cordell, a volunteer from Grand Forks. That's when he knew the boy had been found, he said.
He said he'd lost his daughter, Meagan, two years ago when she was 12, and, like Kuznia, she had a disability. Among the searchers, he said, were educators who had worked with his daughter. "These people really care."
Polk County Sheriff Barb Erdman and Chief Deputy Mike Norland, who is leading the investigation, was seen paying a visit around 4:30 p.m. to Kuznia's home, where he lived with his grandmother. Family members were also seen gathering there.
Officials are expected to make an announcement regarding the search at 5:30 p.m. at East Grand Forks' VFW Arena, which has served as volunteer central.
Kuznia, who was autistic, has been missing since about 2 p.m. Wednesday. Law enforcement officials and volunteers searched through the night and into Thursday. By Thursday afternoon, more than 320 volunteers had signed up to search for him, according to local officials.
Kuznia's church, United Lutheran Church in Grand Forks, is holding a prayer service for his return at 7 tonight, Pastor Karla Coen-Tuff said. The church is at 4th Avenue South and South Chestnut Street.
Many volunteers have signed on for two to three shifts as they comb the fields and woods south of the city.
According to authorities, volunteers are working in shifts, searching one-mile stretches along roadways just south of East Grand Forks, then returning to the VFW about 45 minutes later.
Volunteers must be at least 18 years old and are asked to dress in long pants, long-sleeve shirts and sturdy shoes, according to East Grand Forks Police Chief Mike Hedlund.
Volunteers continue to trickle in to East Grand Forks' VFW Arena, which is serving as volunteer central during the search. The American Red Cross is serving food.
While civilian volunteers are searching along roads, law enforcement officers are searching other areas, continuing efforts made overnight.
A U.S. Customs and Border Protection helicopter, equipped with thermal imaging equipment, was flying over the area today.
Law enforcement, with the help of sonar equipment had searched a three-mile stretch of the river Wednesday, but found nothing, according to Hedlund.
Kuznia went missing about 2 p.m. Wednesday when his grandmother reported that he had wandered from his home.
Law enforcement and volunteers searched until dusk Wednesday. Law enforcement then continued searching until about 2:30 a.m., in an area southeast of East Grand Forks.
Law enforcement will search areas in heavier grass and trees, and along the Red River. About a dozen horses, part of a mounted posse, also are assisting, according to Hedlund.
Hedlund said air, ground and water resources would be tapped again today to find Kuznia, who has autism.
Late Wednesday, cries of "Anthony! Anthony!" came from law enforcement officers and volunteers walking through farm fields and wooded lots around a rural residential strip south of East Grand Forks.
"A young kid like that can be awful creative," Sheriff Erdman said this morning, adding officials planned to recheck areas that were searched Wednesday.
As a matter of routine, authorities also checked with all registered sex offenders in the areas Wednesday, and found no cause for additional investigation into that area, according to Hedlund.
They also searched homes of family members, also as a matter of routine, he said. Other home searches are planned today. Officials also searched several locked vehicles in the area.
While they were not able to search all of them Wednesday, that process would continue today.
Anthony is known to like exploring tents, RVs, cave-like places and basements of homes, Erdman said family members told her.
He has been known to wander off and hide before, she said.
Erdman, in charge of the large multi-agency effort that includes Border Patrol agents and aircraft and Minnesota State Patrol resources, as well as volunteers, said she was grateful for the rapid and "tremendous response" from partner agencies and volunteers willing to help search. She hopes the boy's picture, released shortly after Kuznia was reported missing, will help lead to his safe return.
Despite the lack of results Wednesday, Erdman said she is still viewing the case as primarily a missing child incident and said there is no indication of foul play.
"We have a kid who walked away," Erdman said.
The boy's home is about two miles south of East Grand Forks at 19147 Rhinehart Drive, about three-fourths of a mile east of the Red River.
Anthony was wearing a gray T-shirt with black lettering and plaid shorts, his grandmother told Erdman.
He was described as white, about 5 feet tall and 94 pounds, with brown hair and blue eyes.
Despite his autism, Erdman said, "he is quite social," though he is reported to have trouble walking and expressing himself.
Anyone with information on Kuznia's whereabouts should call (218) 339-3456.

Why New York tech is still laggingAugust 26, 2013: 5:00 AM ET
Tech is big in New York -- but the alley still ain't the valley. Here's our annual report card.
FORTUNE -- Last May when Yahoo (YHOO) CEO Marissa Mayer paid $1.1 billion in cash to buy Tumblr, New York techies cheered. Finally! A New York startup exits for more than a billion dollars! This hasn't happened since Doubleclick sold to Google in 2007. And it is one of the signs people look for in determining whether the tech scene is robust enough to rival Silicon Valley.
At least once a year, a New York journalist -- often someone at Fortune -- writes a story claiming that Silicon Alley has come of age and can finally compete with Silicon Valley. (It should be noted: I've never read a "Can Silicon Valley keep up with NY?" story.) Every year, New York's tech scene is hotter. It's been a decade since Google opened its New York offices across the street from Chelsea Market, and the company now houses 10% of its staff here including 1,500 engineers. Cornell NYC Tech's first group of students -- a seven-member "beta" class -- started their studies last January at the program's temporary offices -- in the Google (GOOG) building. And a growing crop of tech startups from Etsy and ZocDoc to Fab are finding there is enough talent, space, and local government support to stay in New York even as they grow.
But the New York tech scene still lacks some of the most crucial elements of a mature ecosystem. Exactly a year ago, I outlined the three factors holding New York back. Herewith, I offer a report card on our progress:
1. Money. Investors put $1.7 billion into NYC startups in 2012, a jump of 54% from five years ago, according to the MoneyTree report produced by PwC and the National Venture Capital Association. But most of that money still comes from the West Coast. New York City has a number of angel and early stage investors, but few larger tech funds.
MORE: Steve Ballmer's Microsoft years: What the critics are saying
Thrillist CEO Ben Lerer, who flew to the Bay Area to raise $13 million last year for his dude media empire last year, says things have gotten a little better. Later-stage investment is still lacking in New York, he says, but there's more money for A rounds. Lerer, who is also an investor with seed stage venture fund Lerer Ventures, explains: "A few funds that built their brands on seed stage deals have raised larger funds now so they've shifted their dollars a little later-stage to put more money to work."
2. People. Most New York tech executives and investors still say New York needs more talent, but then, there's a talent shortage everywhere. What's clear is that the engineering investments Google, Facebook (FB), and other large tech companies have made in New York are paying off. A vibrant and growing community of developers is emerging. As important now, says Betaworks CEO John Borthwick, is "experienced people who can scale businesses."
Birchbox CEO Katia Beauchamp says recruiting is getting easier this year. Partly that's because her sample subscription service is becoming more established, but she also credits the evolution of the ecosystem of engineers in the city. And she highlights the positive aspects of operating within a smaller ecosystem. "You actually run into people and develop relationships," she says. "It feels like an intimate community."
MORE: New details in Uber's massive funding round
Meanwhile, New York's original tech heavyweight, Kevin Ryan, has been very involved in hiring for software company 10gen. He and cofounders Dwight Merriman and Eliot Horowitz invite candidates to work from either the New York or the Palo Alto office. In the last year, he says, more new hires have chosen to work from New York than San Francisco. Office space is cheaper, too, at the moment. In downtown Palo Alto, the company pays $75 per square foot; in Times Square, it's $60 per square foot.
3. Exits. Tumblr is the main event in New York this year. But it's not the only massive exit. Earlier this summer, 3-D printing company Stratasys (SSYS) purchased the Brooklyn-based 3-D desktop printing company Makerbot in a $403 million stock deal. And in May, Priceline (PCLN) completed its $1.8 billion dollar acquisition of the Norwalk, Conn.-based online travel booking company Kayak. (Norwalk, for all you skeptics with a narrow definition of NYC, is about an hour's drive from Manhattan -- roughly the same as the distance between San Francisco and Cupertino, Calif.)
Ken Lerer, another New York tech stalwart (and father of Ben), says the momentum is gaining. "I assume a very active next six months continuing into next year," he says. "It's like an epidemic -- once you get to a certain place it has a momentum of itself."
MORE: Tim Ferriss: Tech has too much 'dumb capital'
The next year promises to be significant for the New York City tech community. One of tech's most powerful advocates, New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, will step down this fall after his third term, and a new mayor will be elected. Cornell NYC Tech will graduate its first class. Any of a dozen private tech companies may move closer to an initial public offering.
Could this be the year that the city births a tech giant of its own with the acquisitive power and the sheer ambition of Google? That will be the event that will finally merit Silicon Alley's comparisons to the valley.

The sleek design of the Humanscale Float Table Base makes fingertip height adjustment easy. By pressing a lever and applying minimal force, you can easily adjust the height anywhere from 27" to 47", an excellent range of adjustment rare for this type of mechanism. With its sturdy steel and aluminum construction, minimalistic crossbar-free design, easy sit-to-stand adjustability and intuitive counterbalanced adjustment, the Humanscale Float Table Base is a functional yet sophisticated height-adjustable desk base solution.
|Height range
|27" to 47" H
|Weight capacity
|130 lbs
|5 years
Want to use a keyboard tray with your Float Table? No problem! The Float table requires the use of an 11'' track, and we recommend going with the 5GSM mechanism. A Humanscale keyboard tray system, like the Humanscale 900 Keyboard Tray System, is available with an 11'' track option.
Note: This track length will not allow the tray to fully stow beneath the desk.

Read more on our blog!
The Humanscale Float Table comes in three available base colors: Black, Silver or White.
The crank which counterbalances the desktop weight on your Humanscale Float Table can come mounted permanently or is also available removable.
The heavy duty kit is an optional cylinder you can add to increase the lifting capacity an additional 30 lbs.
The Humanscale Float Table Base comes in two sizes, one for tops 48" to 54" wide and one for tops 60" to 72" wide.
Choose whether your Float Table base will be used with a 24" deep or 30" deep top.
An ergonomic keyboard tray is an excellent accessory for your height adjustable desk base, and the Humanscale Float Keyboard Tray has been specifically designed for use with the Float Table. Its specially-designed platform, track and mechanism allow for full storage under your Float Table's desktop, even using a desktop as shallow as 24''. The streamlined mechanism design features the standard 15° of negative tilt found in all Humanscale mechanisms, but removes the independent height adjustment from the keyboard tray mechanism, instead allowing you to use your Float Table's height adjustment capabilities to adjust your keyboard tray. The Float Keyboard Tray comes in black or white, and also lets you choose between foam, gel or slim gel palm rest.
Float Table bases ship via preferred freight carrier. Standard free shipping covers delivery to commercial and residential addresses in the Continental US. See below for other shipping options.

The Goldtouch Go! Travel Notebook and Tablet Stand will come in handy not only when you're traveling, but anytime you want to set your laptop or tablet in an ergonomic position. Choose from seven different height settings to keep your screen at eye-level, which helps you avoid problems like eye strain and neck and back pain. This item also works well as a document holder, allowing you to input data without having to move your neck repeatedly from document to screen. The stand is lightweight and easily portable, yet strong enough to support laptops up to 17'' in length. Best of all, it's free!
The counterbalance mechanism on the Humanscale Float Table Base makes it a breeze to alternate between sitting and standing, which of course helps to promote blood flow and thus increase productivity. It also makes for a safer height-adjustable desk, preventing the possibility of injury that can come with incorrect counterbalance. And the Humanscale Float Desk Base does all of this without one of those obtrusive support beams that can get in the way of your leg space.

MOUNT PLEASANT, Mich. – Central Michigan was unable to come away with a win in its final home game of the season Sunday, falling to No. 13 Northwestern, 2-0.
The Wildcats (14-4, 4-1 Big Ten) sealed the shutout at the 69:50 mark of the second period when CMU sophomore back Anne Middeldorp's shot was blocked off a penalty corner.
The Chippewas (6-10, 3-1 MAC) attempted to spark the offense in the beginning of the second period at the 40-minute mark off a shot from senior back Skylar VanNatta and later in the period at the 63rd minute from junior back Jordyn Brengosz, but couldn't convert.
The Maroon and Gold defense held the Wildcats to only two goals in the first period. Northwestern midfielder Dominique Masters chipped in the first goal off a penalty corner at the 16:02 mark.
Masters scored the second goal for the Wildcats at the 32:52 mark of the first period off a pass from Julia Retzky from a penalty corner.
The Chippewas held the Wildcats to only three shots on goal. Northwestern started its offense right of the start with a shot only 52 seconds into the game. Sophomore goalkeeper Sadie Reynolds made her only save for the day.
Senior Julianna Markinos attempted to find the back of the cage in the beginning of the first period but Wildcat goalkeeper Maddy Carpenter made one of her three saves.
The Chippewas honored its seven seniors – Abby Roth, Markinos, VanNatta, Alexis Gersbach, Ellen Riley, Simone Lazar, and Bailey McKeon at today's match.
CMU will finish its regular season on Saturday, November 2 at noon against Mid-American Conference opponent Miami.

With the sizzle of summer Bar-B-Que's and summer vacation ahead - warm weather is on everyone's minds.
Meteorologist Chris Vickers says last summer was extreme, with triple-digit heat and severe drought. The heat and dry weather wilted crops, devastating the growing season. Last summer's quickly-developing drought, coined a "flash drought," has now been completely erased due to winter precipitation and recent spring rains. This means we're off to a good start for the summer ahead.
The months of June, July and August are essential months for rainfall and account for nearly one third of our entire yearly precipitation, most of which comes from summertime thunderstorms.
Chris expects the summer heat may again be a big story, the summer is expected to be again warmer than average. In part, this will be fueled by the hot and dry conditions out west. Summer heat waves that build out west will be occasionally directed east by the jet stream which will send temperatures soaring into the 90s and possibly again to 100 degrees, something that we did an astounding four times last summer.
The summer season is also the peak of our severe weather season. Ohio averages 19 tornadoes a year, and more than half of them happen in the summer months. The first few weeks around the start of summer in June are the peak of tornado season in northwest Ohio, but severe weather and tornadoes can occur any time of the year.
It's also possible that a warmer summer would provide more energy for storms and higher impact severe weather events like the Derecho last summer and the July microburst through Springfield Township.
Chris says severe weather is an inevitable part of any summer forecast and of course will be this year too. Fortunately, last year's drought – the worst in many decades—which may total over $30 Billion in losses nationally is not foreseen to return locally this year.

Hold the line
Highly touted Joeckel will face mightiest test to date
Published: Friday, October 19, 2012
Updated: Friday, October 19, 2012 21:10
Starting an SEC caliber offensive line requires a quality not many positions in the sport necessitate anymore: experience. The characteristic is a standard among the top lines in the country, one that is shared by Texas A&M.
The focus on recruiting pure talent over the development of players has led many programs to find success in young freshmen. The Aggies stand as a perfect example as prodigies Johnny Manziel and Mike Evans have continued to exceed expectations over the course of this season.
Anchoring A&M's vaunted offensive line is junior left tackle Luke Joeckel, an intense competitor with a developed sense of maturity. Joeckel, who slid into the starting position as a freshman two seasons ago, stands as the program's top NFL prospect as a future first-round draft selection.
"Our line is the most experienced part of our team, by far, with five guys that have played in big games and been against great competition," said head coach Kevin Sumlin. "I think that they continue to improve."
Lining up against A&M's five-man front this Saturday will be what many consider the top defensive line in the nation. With stud pass-rushers Sam Montgomery and Barkevious Mingo leading the powerful LSU attack, the Aggies must rely on linemen such as senior center Patrick Lewis, junior tackle Jake Matthews and, of course, Joeckel.
During the first few matchups on A&M's schedule, many fans and analysts believed the Aggies' line had been overhyped due to their lackluster production in running the ball.
Offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury has expressed a different view on their early struggles.
"Johnny [Manziel] is a tricky guy to block for, just because of the way he moves around," Kingsbury said. "[The offensive line] doesn't just stand around while he runs. They move their feet and get the block. I think to go from how they blocked last year to this year and the effort they've shown is something that pops."
Considering the forced transition from a pocket-passer in Ryan Tannehill to the mobility and creativity of Manziel, the offensive line has developed new blocking schemes and protection efficiently.
Allowing just 12 sacks on the season along with helping the team average 124 yards per game on the ground, Joeckel and offensive line have seemingly found their groove, a fact that should serve to instill confidence entering Saturday's matchup.
"I try to take every week the exact same, [but] I'm jacked up for this week," Joeckel said. "We know what kind of players we're going to be up against. They have a good defensive line."
During the July SEC media days less than one month following the Aggies official juncture with their new conference, the junior tackle was questioned on what he thought would allow him to block the league's stellar defensive lines.
Joeckel's response: "I've blocked Von Miller."
The simplicity and devilish confidence backed by the statement is the same that surrounds the offensive line entering the hyped LSU game. The "Maroon Goons," a nickname created by the line's most senior member, Lewis, have been waiting for the opportunity to prove their resiliency as a unit.
With the Bayou Bengals visiting, the offense may have found their ideal moment to dominate.

Tools to Measure Sustainability: Life Cycle Assessment
Join this free webinar to learn about the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) tool.
March 7, 2012
2:00 -3:00 p.m. ET
Life cycle assessment (LCA) is a tool used to quantify the environmental impacts of a product throughout the entire life cycle, including material extraction, manufacturing, transportation and end of life. The inputs and outputs of the product life cycle are quantified and then translated to environmental impact. Results are commonly used to compare the environmental footprint of multiple products which perform the same function.
LCA results are useful for communicating the environmental impact of a product both internally and externally. Internally, LCA results allow those operations or materials which contribute significant environmental impact to be identified, allowing future improvements to be targeted. Externally, LCA results can be used to validate marketing claims or compare the environmental impact of products of multiple manufacturers. This webinar will focus on the LCA process and how LCA results can be used to drive sustainability. Case study examples will also be presented.

Robin Sax spoke with a decorated Los Angeles police officer about Christopher Dorner and his problems with the LAPD.
Officer Paul Waymire told me that he remembered a conversation with a group of officers back in between 2006 and 2008...they were talking about an officer who had reported his training officer..for using excessive force.
The Chris Dorner case has given rise to the question---is
there truth to what he said in his manifesto. Is the LAPD a place where
racism, retaliation, corruption, and a Code of Silence exist? It goes
without saying but I will say it again---no matter how "right" Dorner may have
been in his allegations there is NOTHING right or even close to it that would
justify killing anybody, especially innocent people.
Following my admission that there were aspects to Dorner's
words that rang true to me, I have been flooded with calls, emails, and tweets,
texts from officers who identify with the rage, hurt, and disappointment with
LAPD. I have received calls from both current and former officers who
seem to echo a similar sentiment--- "I love being a cop. I love my
job. I hate what happens within." Many officers have shared that
they were prepared for the "bad guys" on the street but they never expected
that their jobs would include dealing with the bad guys within.
Tonight on True Crime Specials, Phil Shuman and I begin to
look at the LAPD in light of the Dorner case. We have begun to peel back
the onion and examine the claims that Dorner makes. We look at his case
as well as the cases of other officers who are brave enough to come forward and
share their stories. Keep in mind tonight we are airing only a 30
minute special. I still have a bucket full of emails, interviews,
letters, and calls with many more stories to tell. If I
were a betting woman I would say this is just the beginning of many more
stories/cases to share.

Love it – love this place. great food. lamb kabob and chicken kabobs are to die for. great location. pop in and have a bite. you'll be happy.
Great! – Better than I remember since the last time I was there over 2 years ago. The hummus was to die for
Best hummus – They have the best hummus. Their grilled meats are tender and falvorful and the atmosphere is great. Service is good too.
Exceptionally! – Nothing more to add, everything is done exceptionally.
Good! – As a person who was never introduced to this type of cuisine I was pleasantly surprised at the dishes served at the Fadi's Mediterranean Grill. There are many and varied types of offerings, both meat based and vegetarian.

The best way to ensure a random seed is to do the following:
To start:
1) get your initial seed with mt_srand(microtime() * 1000000)
2) generate a random no. $random=mt_rand()
3) save this number in a file (or database or whatever so that it is available next time the page is loaded)
Now, for each time your script is loaded :
1) load the value you saved above and do $new_seed=($random+(microtime() * 1000000))%pow(2,32)
2) mt_srand($new_seed);
3) generate a new random no. $random=mt_rand()
4) save that number back in the file/database
This procedure takes advantage not only of the randomness of microtime() but of all the previous calls to microtime() so your seed becomes better and better with time. It also generates good seeds even on platforms where microtime() doesn't take all the values it can.
Just using microtime() * 1000000 only results in 1000000 possible seeds (and less on some platforms as noted) - the function above gives 2^32 seeds with an avelanche effect accross multiple executions.

I want to start a challenge this Monday, October first, which will put my finish at the end of December. The rules say that everything must be in by December 5 for the 2012 challenge, and there's no info about a 2013 challenge. Am I in a dead- zone? Do I have to wait until January to start a challenge?
You can always click on the link below that says "Contact Us" and ask the company any questions you have. They have great customer service. Good luck. I know you don't have to wait, you can start anytime, just not sure how the dates run.
The dates are only to organize entries. For the last round in 2012, you needed to start by August 27th. There is never a time when they're not in BFL Challenge though. Starting after that date simply means you are automatically put in the 1st round of the 2013 BFL Challenge. You're good!

Glendale >Pet Services > Trim Time Inc
6131 N Green Bay Ave, Milwaukee, WI | Directions 5320943.129329 -87.933240
Wow, I was looking for a place to have my dogs groomed, I am new to the area and saw Trim Time. Just from the owners feedback from a year ago on a previous clients post, I will definitely not be taking my dogs here. The owners post is extremely unprofessional. Why would you post on a blog page, saying someone is "flat out lying"? She isn't even smart enough to apologize for the client being unhappy and then shutting up. If the owner of a company who I will be paying for their services doesn't have any common sense, I certainly do want to hand over my dogs to them.
NEVER GO TO TRIM TIME! Before I tell you my horrible experience, you should know the last positive review was written by the owner, Jody S. And doesn't she sound rude? She is! t have been reluctantly taking my four dogs to Trim Time for grooming for years. They are usually a little rude when making appointments and picking up the dogs. Never very friendly, but I can't find a better place near me for the price. Getting four dogs groomed every few months is expensive. This past Saturday I lost track of time, and forgot to pick up my dog on time. The only one I had groomed was the oldest, who is blind and diabetic. I was supposed to have picked him up at 4:45. At 5:05 the clerk called me and was incredibly rude, saying that he would have to stay until Monday. Without his meds! I was very apologetic and begged her to stay, that I would be there in ten minutes and would pay her cash to stay the extra time. She was very condescending and reprimanding and would not agree to stay. She said she would call her manager to discuss it with her. While she was doing that, I jumped in the car and drove there as fast as I could. I didn't even put on shoes, which she later insulted me about. She called me back while I was driving to tell me I'd better be there by 5:15 exactly or she would lock up. i was speeding already and might not make it until 5:17, but she didn't care! By that time I was screaming and telling her that if she left my dog would die before Monday, and I'd have to call the police. She was relentless in her lecturing of me. I've never, ever been treated so rudely by any business in my life. TRUST ME! TAKE THE TIME TO FIND A BETTER PLACE FOR YOU DOGS!!!
Trim Time has an open door policy; customers may tour the facility during business hours without an appointment. Why didn't Kim C36 come in before the time of drop off if she was so concerned about leaving her beloved pet? The only time it may seem cluttered is during feeding time when we have may different dog foods out along with food bowls and water bowls. The kennel is constantly cleaned and dogs never smell stinky when they go home even if the don't get bathed. The boarding area is heated to 68 degrees and we provide thick rubber mats along with bedding in all kennels. We have huge sky lights in each kennel wing so it's never dark. The dogs use the three large exercise runs for play time and fecal matter is picked up immediately. Doesn't your dog eliminate on your lawn?. Do you play with your dog on your lawn? The kennel staff also works in the bathing room and they do use boots to keep their feet dry. When ever we have a customer tour the dogs bark at them otherwise they are calm most of the time. Trim Time has been in business for 40 years. Most dogs love it here and can't wait to get back in the boarding area to play with their friends. In reference to Kim's comment stating her dog was barking while we put a bow in her hair and that we called her stupid. Not one of the employee's would call a dog stupid because we all know that there are no stupid dogs just stupid owners. A dog will bark in a kennel for attention but never on the grooming table because they are preoccupied so that's a flat out lie much like her other comments. I really wonder what this Kim is upset about, possible the cost of boarding her dog or these comments are made from one of our competitors that's not doing well? All boarding clients sign a contract stating exactly what the charges will be at drop off.
We will never take our dog to Trim Time again. We boarded our small dog for 9 days during a family vacation and arranged for grooming just before pickup. We regretted our choice immediately, but it was too late for us to arrange alternate boarding. The facility was cluttered and dirty. The boarding area is heated only to at most 60 degrees and the cells where the dogs stay most of the time are dark and concrete. The sound of dogs barking was deafening. The play area doubles as the pee/poop area; the staff wear rubber boots in this disgusting area. To top it off, at pickup we overheard the groomer yell to a colleague, "Make this stupid dog shut up!" in response to our dog's barking as she placed a bow on our dog's ear! We do not humanize our dog as some dog lovers do, but we will definitely shop around more carefully next time we board our dog.
Best Dog Grooming Experience – By far one of the most personable and professional places I have ever been to. They value their relationships with their customers and strive to make sure they are satisfied with their services. My dog has always looked great when I pick him up from his grooming. A few times we put him in the kennel while we were on vacation and everything went well. Kind of seemed like he didn't want to go back home. My dog loves is their and I will keep bringing him back. This business values customer relationships and is always very pleasant with me. Trim Time you Rock
Remarkable place to take your dog. – Love the grooming done to my dog, and the I really appreciate doggy day care.
Not doing a good grooming – I like the place but finally decided I', not going back. The very first time they burned my dog on the side and didn't say anything. Yes I went back because it was the only place I knew.
They never burned him again, so I felt comfortable, we got another dog and every time I took both of them they didn't do the inside of their ears, they had to be plucked and they were shaving it. Eveytime I talked to them the did it the next time, but fail to do so when I didn't ask. But everytime I paid for the service..... I'm looking for another place. We live in Mequon, any ideas?
Thanks a lot.
KEEP YOUR PETS AWAY!!!!!!!! – ...You will be happy you did. the staff is so poorly trained, our pet's cut was butchered. our animal was literally held down, deficated on himself multiple times, and they didn't even finish the cut. When I arrived to pick up my loved one, they handed him over with his mutilated, uneven coat and said, "We did the best we could."
*keep in mind I pre-paid $45+ for the job they never finished. But they did the best they could...HA!!!!!
IT IS AN OUTRAGE. SPREAD THE WORD!!!!!!!!! THEY DO NOT HAVE "trained professionals" and the certianly don't "love the pets as you do."
They only want to fill their appointment book and their cash registers. Find another groomer in town, you and your pets will be glad you did! Don't put your loved ones through this terrible experience. Let this be a WARNING!!!!!
I will NEVER consider doing business with Trim Time Inc. again. Lived in Whitefish Bay all my life, and I am 100% DISGUSTED.

Would the large storage tank be gravity fed or pumped in? I fail to see where a booster pump would fit in this scenario. If not gravity fed, then a (submersible?) pump in the well controlled by a float switch and protected by a pumptec*. Another (submersible?) pump in or at the storage tank protected as well with a pumptec* or float switch.
* or Cycle Sensor which has better sensitivity adjustment.
One float switch turns off at high level and the other turns off at low level.
