Dale Andreatta along with Fred Barrett is the inventor of the Water Pasteurization Indicator (WAPI), a simple thermometer that indicates when water has reached pasteurization temperature and is safe to drink.
Dale writes:
- "I am educated in mechanical engineering, getting BS and MS degrees from The Ohio State University in 1983 and 1984. After working for SEA, Ltd., an engineering consulting company, I went to Berkeley for a Ph.D. completing that in 1995. One of my minor areas was heat transfer, which is highly relevant in solar cooking and a number of other areas. While in California I hooked up with Solar Cookers International, and finished the design of the original WAPI. I also worked on several low-cost methods of water pasterurization. After graduating I moved back to Columbus Ohio and went back to work for SEA, continuing to work on water pasteurization as my time permitted. Along with others, I have authored several papers for the American Solar Energy Society about solar water pasteurization methods.
- Currently I am heavily involved with efforts to design clean and efficient cooking methods for the developing world using biofuels. All of this work is encouraged by my company as time allows, and they provide me with a small budget and laboratory space."

What to do in Alcudia?
Alcudia is located in the North of Mallorca, in between two bays which are characterized by having some of the most beautiful beaches of the Mediterranean. We can find totally unexploited beaches but also some of the most touristic ones.
In 1994, Alcudia was named Ecoturistic village thanks to its great landscape variety along its 30 km of coastline.
Alcudia is one of the most demanded areas by the tourists. There you can practice a great number of activities and sports thanks to its environmental characteristics. Nordic Walking is one of the most demanded sports together with cycling, hiking and climbing. Moreover, you can practice a great variety of other outdoors sports such as golf, equestrian or tennis.
The area surrounding Alcudia is characterized by its great complementary offer. Apart from the aforementioned activities, you will be able to practice aerial and aquatic sports since these are offered by many companies in Alcudia: sailing, windsurf, surfing, kayaking, diving, water skiing, snorkeling, jet skiing, coastering, etc. In the surroundings of Alcudia you will also encounter offers such as paragliding, hang gliding, balloon and helicopter for the lovers of heights.
If you want to take advantage of all the aforementioned activities, we suggest you to stay in our hotels, JS Alcudi-Mar and JS Sol in Alcudia, where you will be able to relax after a long day enjoying Alcudia's leisure activities.

There is no excuse as to why this is still here. Insane sp advantage field advantage and set phase advantage against rushes and mids with no way to counter it without packing hard counters with no other uses (single-taskers) and miraculously predicting it. It adds no value to the game and by far is the most broken and one sided combo in alteil right now. On the scale of pre-nerf aegis to pre-nerf ruuca, it is up there with ruuca.
You guys got rasam nerfed. While it was good, its strength was its versatility; it was not blatantly overpowered. Vonderclone is much more heinous than rasam. If rasam was nerfed, I see no reason why vonderclone can't be touched.

Heather Corinna replies:
First of all, I would like to say thank you for teaching a lot of us just a little more on the female anatomy, it's a Great Website.
I do have a question to ask. My wife and I have been married for almost 3 years and there's been times that I've had to leave for the weekend due to my job. Now upon my arrival, of course I would make love to my wife. But when going down there to give her oral sex, I would get this smell like dried semen. You know? When you have sex and then, a few hours or a day later when you do go down there again you get that unique smell?. Now, I do love my wife and trust her, but my question is do women have vaginal discharges that would make her smell like semen?.
You know, genitals smell like genitals smell like genitals. A bit musty, sometimes a bit acidic or salty. And with women, because of the phases of our fertility cycles, and the changes in our cervical mucus and vaginal discharges during every cycle, that smell isn't always going to be identical.
You might also want to bear in mind that it often takes the vagina a few days to clean itself out with whatever wound up inside it. So, if you really feel like you are smelling semen, you may well be smelling your own semen from any sex before you left for the weekend.
But really, there's not a scent that is highly unique to semen that isn't similar to vaginal discharges.
You say you trust your partner, but to be honest, I'm not hearing it here. When we trust someone, if we worry or suspect that they aren't being monogamous, we ASK them. We don't try and analyze their genital scents, or check up on their whereabouts, or look for hidden clues in the things they say or do. We simply ask them, and then we accept their answer. If we feel like their answer isn't good enough, then we've got to recognize that we DO have a trust issue that we need to work out or reconcile.
So, if you're having concerns that your wife isn't being faithful, she's the person to ask about it, not me or anyone else.

Event launches movement to improve Black women's health and wellness
Part 2 — see part one in the current print edition of the MSR
By Robin James
Contributing Writer
The October 6 Baraza Conference presentation by Dr. BraVada Garrett-Akinsanya, Ph.D., was titled "Claiming Your Right to Wellness: Sisters in Recovery from Life" and addressed powerful issues such as trauma, grief and loss as they relate to both personal and professional relationships, and offered the audience exercises to improve wellness of mind, body, and spirit. Dr. Akinsanya is a licensed clinical psychologist and executive director of the African American Child Wellness Institute. One of the things she discussed during her talk was cognitive reframing, such as when one thinks of a glass as half full or half empty. So, when you do reframing, what you do is look at a situation from another side. Dr. Akinsanya asked the audience to think of one negative thing you say about yourself that keeps you locked down.

Super Drop Diamond
this wiki
The Enus Super Drop Diamond is an ultra-high luxury convertible featured in The Ballad of Gay Tony.
The Super Drop Diamond appears to be based on the 2007-present Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupé.
It is a two-door cabriolet version of the Super Diamond, having largely the same general form. The Super Drop Diamond is however marginally longer than the hardtop, necessitated by the car retaining all four seats (the front seats are roomier than those of the Super Diamond), though lamentably the car can only seat two passengers in-game due to the lack of third and fourth door. The premium interior is identical to its four-door counterpart, which in turn is very similar to that of the Benefactor Schafter.
The car spawns exclusively with a golden chrome finish, complimenting which is a gloss beige bonnet and an optional black vinyl roof, the latter often being deployed when raining or at night. The doors open in a conventional manner, in contrast to the real Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupé's suicide-style doors (opened to rear) on which the Super Drop Diamond is based.
Much like the Super Diamond, the 'Drop' version features a huge front-mounted V12 engine driving the rear wheels, but this engine has a higher power/torque output to compensate for the Drop's increased weight and aerodynamic hindrances which naturally occur when turning a hardtop car into a convertible.
This vehicle is exceedingly rapid and surprisingly agile for a vehicle of these dimensions, feeling impossibly superior in terms of performance to most other cars in GTA IV. The top speed and acceleration performance is identical to the Super Diamond, with a 0-60mph time of 4.4 seconds and an astronomical top speed of 223mph which is slightly higher than the Super Diamond. The exceptionally wide and grippy tyres result in this leviathan being able to out-manoeuvre even the sportiest of cars.
Notable owners
- Yusuf Amir is well known for using the Super Drop Diamond as his primary land vehicle and method of transport. He owns four Super Drop Diamond cars, each having a chrome-gold paint job.
- Frickie Van Hardenburg was photographed by Weazel News driving a Super Drop Diamond, as seen in the "Guns in Liberty" trailer for TBOGT.
- Luis Fernando Lopez is awarded a Super Drop Diamond by Yusuf Amir after successfully completing the mission "For the Man Who Has Everything".
The Ballad of Gay Tony
- Available by failing Yusuf Amir's missions "High Dive", "Caught with your Pants Down" and "For the Man Who Has Everything"; it appears during the firsty parts of each mission. The player can get these cars by killing Yusuf and parking the car at the safehouse.
- Awarded to the player by Yusuf following the mission "For the Man Who Has Everything", alongside a Gold SMG. Since then it would spawn near Yusuf's penthouse on Columbus Avenue.
- Sometimes can be spotted near a restaurant beside Niko Bellic safe house in Middle Park,Algonquin but when you steal it,the alarm will be triggered
- Trailers
- The Super Drop Diamond was first seen in the "Meet Yusuf Amir" trailer for TBoGT; at the opening of the trailer Yusuf was seen driving the car.
- In the "Guns in Liberty" trailer for TBoGT, Frickie Van Hardenburg is spotted driving a Super Drop Diamond. This scene, however, is not seen in the game itself, and no character in the game is shown driving this car except for Yusuf Amir.
- In-game attributes
- Unusually, the car never gets dirty, and as a result, the car cannot enter any car wash.
- The player can shoot from the car with the window glass still in place.
- When attempting to shoot enemies from behind, occasionally Luis' arm and gun will appear to stick out of the roof.
- The car shares the same rim design as the Albany Cavalcade.
- The default radio station of this car is The Beat 102.7.
- The car has no reverse lights.
- This car doesn't have visible pedals or a shifter, so it's unknown if this car is either manual or automatic, though the huge luxury stature and smooth drive would suggest that it has an automatic gearbox.
- Driving the car may spawn a Cavalcade around

April 15, 2011
The Ohio State backfield is already a crowded one and with big time backs Warren Ball and Bri'onte Dunn in the fold for the 2012 class, it's only going to get more crowded. Even so, the Buckeyes will have plenty of options in the 2013 class to add more depth to the stable. One of the better in-state backs in the class is Dublin (Ohio) Scioto's William Houston. Here is a look at Houston's sophomore highlights.Observations:At nearly 220-pounds, Houston is a load to bring to the ground. Physically, he's very strong in the lower body and runs with good power for such a young player. He has a good initial burst through the hole and keeps a nice, low pad-level. His film also reveals a more than capable option in the passing game.Like most big sophomore running backs, you don't see a ton of 25+ yard runs. Continuing to get stronger and improve his top end speed will be a big key as that will help turn a lot of those 12-15 yard runs into bigger gains but overall there is a lot to like about Houston as a prospect.

Peel the kiwifruit and dice into pieces approximately 1/2 inch.
Peel the mango and cut into pieces the same size as the kiwi. (Here is How to Cut a Mango if you haven't done it before.)
Thinly slice the green onions.
Kiwi, Mango, and Cucumber Salsa with Lime and Jalapeno
(Makes about 2 cups of salsa, recipe created by Kalyn with inspiration from Lydia.)
4 kiwifruit, peeled and cut into 1/2 inch pieces
1 mango, peeled, seed removed, and cut into 1/2 inch pieces
2 small cucumbers, cut into 1/2 inch pieces (if the cucumber has thick skin, I would peel it)
2-3 green onions, sliced
4 T fresh squeezed lime juice
1 tsp. green Tabasco sauce (or more, if you like it spicy)
sea salt to taste (I used about 1/2 tsp.)
Combine the diced kiwifruit, mango, cucumber, and sliced green onions in a bowl (with a tight-fitting lid if you're going to chill the salsa.) Whisk together the lime juice and green Tabasco sauce in a small bowl, then pour over the fruit-vegetable mixture. Stir a few times to combine.
This can be served at room temperature or chilled for a few hours.
Recipe Ideas for Things I Would Serve with This Salsa:
Grilled Lime and Chile Chicken (this is what I ate with the salsa)
Very Greek Grilled Chicken
Grilled Chicken Sanpete Kabobs
Creole-Seasoned and Pan-Fried Pork Cutlets
Grilled Pork Chops with Soy Sauce, Cumin, Lime, and Oregano
Cuban Flank Steak
Grilled Lime and Chipotle Pork Chops
Spice-Rubbed and Roasted Fish Fillets - Orange Roughy, Halibut, Cod, or Tilapia
Grilled Salmon with Maple Syrup Glaze
World's Easiest Roasted Tilapia
South Beach Suggestions:
Fruit salsa like this would be approved for phase 2 or 3 of the South Beach Diet.

1. So much came together in terms of planning for the next 6-8 months over the weekend, I cannot believe it. Its been a rush and I have been super busy scouring ebay and cussing people out for out bidding me at literally the last second. I even pulled off the highway after work today to bid on an item (responsibility, first people!) and my silly Iphone refused to update and I lost FOUR items in a 5 minute period. Sheesh.
2. I am playing around with a business model at the moment. I am looking into opening a shop, with a wide range of items. But its in the primary stages (aka in my mind) I'm still rolling it around my brain deciding if it would be a worth it endeavor. Stay tuned for details!
3. Holy migraines this week! I finally cut out ALL meat and got back to my healthy vegetarian diet, not my chips and soda vegetarian diet. I was still sneaking pepperoni (I know the worst meat ever) on my pizza, but this week that ended. I am detoxing all over the place. In the morning I make Steve and I our super packed shake (bananas, strawberries, blueberries, spinach, kale, amazing grass ORAC super foods powder, EFA omega 3,6,9, Spirulina, and local honey. Phew!) and then I take an almond butter sammy and green juice (cucumber, kale, spinach, romaine, 1 apple) to work and then I let myself have whatever we have for dinner, although this week I have been trying to stick to healthier options. My boss even gave me $10 to Starbucks and I have yet to touch it :)
4. I have been a (mostly) vegetarian, vegetarian for a year. I wish I could say I was rail thin and just loving life but I've honestly gained more weight because it was so easy to eat Pizza and Mac and Cheese than to truly commit to a true healthy life style. Eating healthy is getting easier now that I am making time for it (getting up earlier!) but it is still a work in progress.
5. I starting my "4th" year of memory keeping. This will be the first year that I am going to be keeping the memories as we make them and this is such a good year to start! I am caught up to date (I made traditional scrapbooks for the first 2 years that Steve and I were together and then I started project life with year 3 but I started this past March so I had to work backwards from March to the previous August and to be honest I hate that part of my PL album. Its not weekly and I was not all that wonderful about taking pictures all the time and we live a pretty boring, hot, sweaty life here in Texas. So there wasn't much to fill that part but the album is still some how THICK. It was a perfect time to start year 4 because year 3 is busting out of the seems!

J/70 North American titles - Brian Keane moves to top of leaderboard
by Julie and Christopher Howell on 19 Jul 2014
J/70 North American Championship 2014 J/70 Class Association
2014 J/70 North American Championship - Five races are now in the books, and the J/70 North American Championship has a new leader. Brian Keane continued to post consistent scores, and with nothing lower than a sixth (five, six, two, four, five) has moved solidly into first place with 22 points.
Tim Healy dropped to second with 33 points, and Ian Atkins is in third with 49. Brian Elliott currently tops the Corinthian division. The regatta, hosted by Rochester Yacht Club in Rochester, New York, will not have a discard race.
Teams were briefly postponed on shore as the wind filled in. When it did, the breeze ranged between six - eight knots under clear skies. Bennet Greenwald tallied the victory in race four, just ahead of Martin Johnsson and Jud Smith. Joel Ronning grabbed a bullet in the next battle, as Martin Kullman and Allan Terhune finalized the top three spots.
Racing continues through Sunday for the 71 teams from Bermuda, Brazil, Canada, Great Britain, Puerto Rico, Mexico, Sweden and the United States.

The East African Community (EAC) Heads of State has approved former Ugandan Minister Jessica Eriyo as Deputy Secretary General (in charge of Political Federation) effective from today.
Eriyo replaces Beatrice Kiraso, also from Uganda, who served in the same position since her appointment by the EAC Heads of State in April 2006.
In a joint communiqué of the Heads of State, who met in Arusha during the 10th extraordinary meeting, the summit commended Kiraso, who was completing her term of office as deputy secretary general of the regional bloc for her exemplary service during the past six years.
"The summit wishes Kiraso well in her future endeavours," the communiqué read in part.
In most cases, EAC Deputy Secretaries General serve a three-year term, renewable only once.
Kiraso has repeatedly called for an active role of political parties in the formation of a political union for the region, saying without political parties, the whole idea is doomed to failure.
The summit also re-appointed Burundian Jean Claude Nsengiyumva as Deputy Secretary General (Social and Productive Sector). The summit also directed the secretary general to deploy deputy secretary generals to different departments.
During the meeting the Heads of State also adopted in principle a destination model of clearance of goods where assessment and collection of revenue is at the first point of entry and revenues are remitted to the destination partner states subject to the fulfilment of key pre-conditions to be developed by the high level task force.
The summit directed the council to initiate its operationalisation and report progress at the 14th ordinary summit in November, this year.
On the application of South Sudan to join the regional bloc, the summit considered the report of the council of ministers on the application of the newly Republic of South Sudan to join the EAC.
"The summit noted that the council has initiated a verification process of the application. The summit directed the council to expedite this process and report at the 14th ordinary summit in November, this year."

Sonic the hedgehog is a great video game character. Now i never had to do this before but i feel since this is a thread about Sonic i need to set some rules.
1.While you may talk about the bad Sonic games please don't turn this thread into a rant about Sonic being good then bad then starting to get good since Sonic Unleashed's day time levels.
2.This is a thread for fans of Classic Sonic,Modern Sonic, & fans of both so please respect others opinions.
3.Please no huge rants about Modern Sonic.
4.No huge rants about Sonic Characters/Sonic having too many friends. You may talk about Sonic characters you hate and why you hate them but no huge rants about Sonic being the only good Sonic Character.
I'm sorry about all those rules but this being a Sonic thread i felt i needed to set some ground rules.
You can talk about Sonic Games,Sonic Characters,Sonic Comics,Sonic cartoons and anything Sonic. You can even talk about Mario here.
Anyway he has been in loads of video games, A lot good, Some Bad. My question is what is your favorite Sonic game? Mine is a tie between Sonic Generations,Sonic Adventure DX, & Sonic Adventure 2 Battle.

Oldham County has lost a "gentleman's gentleman" in Gilbert Winters, according to his colleagues.
Winters, who lived in La Grange and served a magistrate for 17 years, died Tuesday, April 12, 2011, at age 85.
He was a farmer and construction worker by trade, and served as a U.S. Marine in World War II.
"He always struck me as a very thoughtful and honest man," said former magistrate Norman Brown, who worked with Winters on fiscal court, and was a magistrate from 1977 to 1998.

SUFFIELD, Ohio - -Second Annual Ice Out Hunger Icefishing Tournament raises money for Akron Canton Regional Foodbank.
There's a thin glaze of ice covering most of Wingfoot Lake, a welcome sight to Carl "Big Daddy" Bachtel, WKYC photojournalist and tournament organizer.
At last year's event, high temperatures left the lake wide open, but the iceless ice fishing tournament still raised nearly $2,000.
"We're hoping to raise at least that much this year," Bachtel says. "Sportsmen and women have giving hearts, and I just wanted to tap into that goodness to give back a little."
The charity Carl and his hearty group of ice anglers have picked is the Akron Canton Regional Foodbank. Their leveraging power takes a $1 donation and stretches it into four meals for those in need.
"The money raised last year was turned into 8,000 meals for hungry families right here in Northeast Ohio," says Michelle Hinton, who works for the fFodbank.
The event will take place Saturday, Feb. 2 at Wingfoot State Park. You can stop by the Pine Tree Lodge any time between 7 a.m. and 2 p.m. to register. The entry fee is $10 per two-person team and 100 percent of the money collected goes directly to the Foodbank.
All who enter, whether you fish or not, are eligible for some fine prizes, donated by our sponsors. There will also be donuts and coffee in the morning, plus homemade chili and cornbread, chicken and noodles, and hot dogs to warm up later in the day.
"I would personally like to thank all of our sponsors," said Bachtel. "Without them, we couldn't put this event together."
Those sponsors include: JoAnn Fabric and Craft Stores, Eberhart Landscaping and Lawn Service, Summit Sportsmens Association, WKYC, Inside the Great Outdoors radio, Mogadore Bait and Tackle, Portage Lakes Bait and Tackle, Gone Fishin' Bait and Tackle, Finny's Custom Fishing Rods, the Akron Aeros, Ice Fish Ohio, Battaglia's Garden Center and Ohio Game Fishing.

Once you start sailing the bigger boats, it's hard to stop! And there's always more to learn. Our Bareboat Cruising course is the next step. It picks up where Basic Cruising leaves off and covers topics such as navigation, anchoring, and heavy weather sailing in much greater detail. You'll learn the things you need to know when chartering a sailboat: the various techniques used around the world for mooring and anchoring (e.g. stern and bow, fork, Mediterranean, Bahamian); controlling the boat under power with confidence; big boat docking techniques; provisioning; visiting the fuel and pump-out dock; VHF communication; and more. We will also take you through a tour of all the important boat systems, peering behind seat covers and into the bilge until you know exactly where everything is, what it does, and what to do (or who to call!) when it doesn't work. This course typically includes 3 days of sailing, two overnights at anchor or moored, and additional prep and debrief time. Maximum of 4 students.
Many course participants choose to test for their US SAILING Bareboat Cruising certification, which signifies that you have sufficient skills and knowledge to safely and confidently skipper an auxiliary powered cruising sailboat between 30' and 45' in length, in winds above 15 knots, within sight of land during daylight hours. This certification is widely respected and accepted by many sailboat charter companies in the US and other parts of the world. Most Bareboat graduates are also qualified for a Courageous cruising membership.

They discuss the economic baloney of mainstream economists, the failure of most to understand the potential for mass inflation given the money supply currently sitting around in bank reserves, the reality of the business cycle and the politicians and medias failure to grasp it, and why none of us should make sweeping predictions about how the future will unfold, even if we do understand economics, since human action and the flexibility of markets are impossible to quantify.
