Samuel thrilled with £4,500 scholarship
Last updated at 11:56, Tuesday, 22 January 2013
A HIGH flying Furness student has been awarded a university scholarship.
Samuel Antony Mann has received a £4,500 Excellence Scholarship from Bangor University, where he studies zoology.
The 19-year-old, from Barrow, won the scholarship for gaining the highest academic attainment in the School of Biological Sciences. He was awarded two A* and two As in A-Level biology, geology, chemistry and maths at Barrow Sixth Form College.
This month he won a College Memorial Award for Outstanding Performance at GCE Advanced Level.
The award-winning student said: "It was such a shock and a privilege to find out that I had won the scholarship. It will help me buy books for wider reading and pay for trips relevant to my course.
"I heard about Bangor at a Higher Education fair in Kendal and with the Menai Strait, Anglesey and woods close by it seemed like the most fitting location to study zoology.
"The best thing about the course is the wide range of interesting topics and the connectivity of them all."
Carys Roberts, head of student recruitment, said: "We're delighted to be able to recognise Samuel's academic achievement upon entry, and are confident that he will go on to excel in his studies during his time here at Bangor.
"Bangor University has one of the most generous scholarship schemes in the country and our Excellence Scholarship awards mean that we're able to recognise and reward the success of our highest-achieving students."

Not to be confused with acrophobia, an extreme or irrational fear of heights. This article is about the medical condition. For the 1958 film, see Vertigo (film). For other uses, see Vertigo (disambiguation). Vertigo , Horizontal optokinetic nystagmus, a symptom which can accompany vertigo. ICD-10 H81, R42 ICD-9 438.85, 780.4 DiseasesDB 29286 eMedicine article/1159385 MeSH D014717 Vertigo /ˈvɜrtɨɡoʊ/ (from the Latin vertō "a whirling or spinning movement") is a subtype of dizziness in which a patient inappropriately experiences the perception of motion (usually a spinning motion) due to dysfunction of the vestibular system. It is often associated with nausea and vomiting as well as a balance disorder, causing difficulties standing or walking. There are three types of vertigo. The first is known as objective and describes when the patient has the sensation that objects in the environment are moving; the second is known as subjective and refers to when the patient feels as if he or she is moving, and the third is known as pseudovertigo, an intensive sensation of rotation inside the patient's head. While appearing in textbooks, this classification has little to do with the pathophysiology or treatment of vertigo. Dizziness and vertigo are common medical issues, affecting approximately 20%-30% of the general population. Vertigo may be present in patients of all ages. The prevalence of vertigo rises with age and is about two to three times higher in women than in men. It accounts for about 2-3% of emergency department visits. The main causes of vertigo are benign paroxysmal positional vertigo,Ménière's disease,vestibular neuritis, and labyrinthitis, but may also be caused by a concussion or a vestibular migraine. Excessive consumption of ethanol (alcoholic beverages) can also cause symptoms of vertigo. Repetitive spinning, as in familiar childhood games, can induce short-lived vertigo by disrupting the inertia of the fluid in the vestibular system; this is known as physiologic vertigo. Contents 1 Classification of vertigo 1.1 Peripheral, 1.2 Central, , 2 Signs and symptoms 2.1 Motion sickness, , 3 Differential diagnosis 3.1 Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, 3.2 Vestibular migraine, 3.3 Ménière's disease, 3.4 Vestibular neuritis, , 4 Pathophysiology, 5 Diagnostic approach, 6 Pharmacologic treatment of vertigo, 7 See also, 8 References, Classification of vertigo: Vertigo is classified into either peripheral or central depending on the location of the dysfunction of the vestibular pathway, although it can also be caused by psychological factors. Peripheral: Vertigo caused by problems with the inner ear or vestibular system, which is composed of the semicircular canals, the vestibule (utricle and saccule), and the vestibular nerve is called "peripheral", "otologic" or "vestibular" vertigo. The most common cause is benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), which accounts for 32% of all peripheral vertigo. Other causes include Ménière's disease (12%), superior canal dehiscence syndrome, labyrinthitis and visual vertigo. Any cause of inflammation such as common cold, influenza, and bacterial infections may cause transient vertigo if it involves the inner ear, as may chemical insults (e.g., aminoglycosides) or physical trauma (e.g., skull fractures). Motion sickness is sometimes classified as a cause of peripheral vertigo. Patients with peripheral vertigo typically present with mild to moderate imbalance, nausea, vomiting, hearing loss, tinnitus, fullness, and pain in the ear. In addition, lesions of the internal auditory canal may be associated with ipsilateral facial weakness. Due to a rapid compensation process, acute vertigo as a result of a peripheral lesion tends to improve in a short period of time (days to weeks). Central: Vertigo that arises from injury to the balance centers of the central nervous system (CNS), often from a lesion in the brainstem or cerebellum and is generally associated with less prominent movement illusion and nausea than vertigo of peripheral origin. Central vertigo has accompanying neurologic deficits (such as slurred speech and double vision), and pathologic nystagmus (which is pure vertical/torsional). Central pathology can cause disequilibrium which is the sensation of being off-balance. The balance disorder associated with central lesions causing vertigo are often so severe that many patients are unable to stand or walk. A number of conditions that involve the central nervous system may lead to vertigo including: lesions caused by infarctions or hemorrhage, tumors present in the cerebellopontine angle such as a vestibular schwannoma or cerebellar tumors,epilepsy,cervical spine disorders such as cervical spondylosis, degenerative ataxia disorders,migraine headaches,lateral medullary syndrome, Chiari malformation,multiple sclerosis,parkinsonism, as well as cerebral dysfunction. Central vertigo may not improve or may do so more slowly than vertigo caused by disturbance to peripheral structures. Signs and symptoms: Vertigo is a sensation of spinning while stationary. It is commonly associated with nausea or vomiting,unsteadiness (postural instability), falls, and difficulties walking. Recurrent episodes in those with vertigo are common and they frequently impair the quality of life.Blurred vision, difficulty speaking, a lowered level of consciousness, and hearing loss may also occur. The signs and symptoms of vertigo can present as a persistent (insidious) onset or an episodic (sudden) onset. The characteristics of persistent onset vertigo is indicated by symptoms lasting for longer than one day and caused by degenerative changes that affect balance as people age. Naturally, the nerve conduction slows with aging and a decreased vibratory sensation is common. Additionally, there is a degeneration of the ampulla and otolith organs with an increase in age. Persistent onset is commonly paired with central vertigo signs and systems. The characteristics of an episodic onset vertigo is indicated by symptoms lasting for a smaller, more memorable amount of time, typically lasting for only seconds to minutes. Typically, episodic vertigo is correlated with peripheral symptoms and can be the result of but not limited to diabetic neuropathy or autoimmune disease. Motion sickness: Motion sickness is one of the biggest symptoms of vertigo and it develops most often in persons with inner ear problems. The feeling of dizziness and lightheadedness is often accompanied by nystagmus (an involuntary movement of the eye characterized by a smooth pursuit eye movement followed by a rapid saccade in the opposite direction of the smooth pursuit eye movement). During a single episode of vertigo, this action will occur repeatedly. Symptoms can fade while sitting still with the eyes closed. Differential diagnosis: A number of specific conditions can cause vertigo. In the elderly, however, the condition is often multifactorial. Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo: Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is the most common vestibular disorder and occurs when loose calcium carbonate debris has broken off of the otoconial membrane and enters a semicircular canal thereby creating the sensation of motion. Patients with BPPV may experience brief periods of vertigo, usually under a minute, which occur with change in position. It is the most common process of vertigo. It occurs in 0.6% of the population yearly with 10% having an attack during their lifetime. It is believed to be due to a mechanical malfunction of the inner ear. BPPV may be diagnosed with the Dix-Hallpike test and can be effectively treated with repositioning movements such as the Epley maneuver. Vestibular migraine: Vestibular migraine is the association of vertigo and migraines and is one of the most common causes of recurrent, spontaneous episodes of vertigo. The etiology of vestibular migraines is currently unclear; however, one hypothesized cause is that the stimulation of the trigeminal nerve leads to nystagmus in individuals suffering from migraines. Other suggested causes of vestibular migraines include: unilateral neuronal instability of the vestibular nerve, idiopathic asymmetric activation of the vestibular nuclei in the brainstem, and vasospasm of the blood vessels supplying the labyrinth or central vestibular pathways resulting in ischemia to these structures. Vestibular migraines are estimated to affect 1-3% of the general population and may affect 10% of migraine patients. Additionally, vestibular migraines tend to occur more often in women than in men and rarely affect individuals after the sixth decade of life. Ménière's disease: Ménière's disease is a vestibular disorder of unknown origin, but is thought to be caused by an increase in the amount of endolymphatic fluid present in the inner ear (endolymphatic hydrops). However, this idea has not been directly confirmed with histopathologic studies but electrophysiologic studies have been suggestive of this mechanism. Ménière's disease frequently presents with recurrent, spontaneous attacks of severe vertigo in combination with ringing in the ears (tinnitus), a feeling of pressure or fullness in the ear (aural fullness), severe nausea or vomiting, imbalance, and hearing loss. As the disease worsens, hearing loss will progress. Vestibular neuritis: Vestibular neuritis presents with severe vertigo with associated nausea, vomiting, and generalized imbalance and is believed to be caused by a viral infection of the inner ear though several theories have been put forward and the etiology remains uncertain. Individuals with vestibular neuritis do not typically have auditory symptoms but may experience a sensation of aural fullness or tinnitus. Persisting balance problems may remain in 30% of people affected. Pathophysiology: The neurochemistry of vertigo includes six primary neurotransmitters that have been identified between the three-neuron arc that drives the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR). Glutamate maintains the resting discharge of the central vestibular neurons, and may modulate synaptic transmission in all three neurons of the VOR arc. Acetylcholine appears to function as an excitatory neurotransmitter in both the peripheral and central synapses. Gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) is thought to be inhibitory for the commissures of the medial vestibular nucleus, the connections between the cerebellar Purkinje cells, and the lateral vestibular nucleus, and the vertical VOR. Three other neurotransmitters work centrally. Dopamine may accelerate vestibular compensation. Norepinephrine modulates the intensity of central reactions to vestibular stimulation and facilitates compensation. Histamine is present only centrally, but its role is unclear. Dopamine, histamine, serotonin, and acetylcholine are neurotransmitters thought to produce vomiting. It is known that centrally acting antihistamines modulate the symptoms of acute symptomatic vertigo. Diagnostic approach: Tests for vertigo often attempt to elicit nystagmus and to differentiate vertigo from other causes of dizziness such as presyncope, hyperventilation syndrome, disequilibrium, or psychiatric causes of lightheadedness. Tests of vestibular system (balance) function include: electronystagmography (ENG), Dix-Hallpike maneuver, rotation tests, head-thrust test,caloric reflex test, and computerized dynamic posturography (CDP).CT scans or MRIs are sometimes used by physicians when diagnosing vertigo. Tests of auditory system (hearing) function include: pure tone audiometry, speech audiometry, acoustic reflex, electrocochleography (ECoG), otoacoustic emissions (OAE), and the auditory brainstem response test. Pharmacologic treatment of vertigo: Definitive treatment depends on the underlying cause of the vertigo. Ménière's disease patients have a variety of treatment options to consider when receiving treatment for vertigo and tinnitus including: a low-salt diet, intratympanic injections of the antibiotic gentamicin, a benzodiazepine such as diazepam to reduce vertigo by sedating the vestibular system, or surgical measures such as a shunt or ablation of the labyrinth in refractory cases. Other treatment options for vertigo may include: Anticholinergics such as scopolamine, Anticonvulsants such as topiramate or valproic acid for vestibular migraines, Antihistamines such as betahistine, dimenhydrinate, or meclozine, which may have antiemetic properties, Beta blockers such as metoprolol for vestibular migraine, Corticosteroids such as methylprednisolone for inflammatory conditions such as vestibular neuritis or dexamethasone as a second-line agent for Ménière's disease

Worldwide MSX Demand Fuels Cost Reduction
The patented multi-spectral imaging (MSX) capability of the FLIR E-Series has proved significant both to customers worldwide and to FLIR Systems' pricing.
This feature is standard on the entire FLIR E-Series of electro-mechanical troubleshooting cameras and it is now one of the main reasons why customers choose this brand. (Read More)
Indeed, MSX has resulted in huge demand for the FLIR E-Series in general and the FLIR E8 in particular and this, in turn, has enabled FLIR Systems to make this model even more attractive from a price perspective.
Based on current economies of scale and therefore valid until 30th September 2014, the FLIR E8 now carries a price tag of just £3,035 (3,995 euros in Ireland). This represents a cost saving of around 37% on the original manufacturer's recommended price.
MSX has proved so popular because it provides exceptional image quality in real time. It extracts the outline detail from the visual image and blends it with the thermal profile. This makes it so much easier for the camera user to diagnose the problem.
Its effect is particularly striking on the high resolution, 320 x 240 pixels, images produced on the FLIR E8. Such is the clarity of the MSX enhanced image that a supporting visual image isn't needed. MSX can also be applied to stored visual and thermal JPEG images after inspection.

The process gas burner expertise that is central to the leading reputation of Lanemark International Ltd., is now seen in conjunction with the company's tank design and installation capability at a refurbished facility for one of the UK's leading automotive manufacturing organisations. (Read More)
The facility, at the Nissan Motor Manufacturing UK plant in Sunderland, replaces an existing caustic wash unit and features both a Lanemark TX gas fired immersed tube heating system and a bespoke tank and lid design – configured to meet the precise requirements of the customer.
"We have manufactured a fully insulated dip tank measuring some 3m x 1.7m in footprint and with an overall height of 1.5m," comments Lanemark Director Jeff Foster, "and which also includes a hinged lid that is connected to an integral fan assisted extraction system. This is designed to remove fumes and vapours from the process, whether the lid is closed or when the lid is opened to its full extent of almost 90°, with flexible duct connections to the extraction system operating in conjunction with the hinge arrangement."
The caustic wash facility, located ahead of a rinse tank, features a Lanemark TX30 gas fired immersed tube heating system. This comprises a 150 kW burner firing through the wall of the tank into a 3-inch multi-pass, immersed tube heat exchanger. "A four pass heat exchanger is designed into the tank construction – along the length and one end of the tank," continues Jeff Foster, "which in turn connects to an extraction fan that pulls the products of combustion through the system. Both this exhaust fan and the lid extraction system are then connected to a duct system to the exterior of the building."
The installation at the refurbished Nissan facility is central to the operation of a number of painting lines that require a series of regular maintenance operations to be carried out. This includes the cleaning of components – such as jigs, grid floor panels and walkway sections – all of which pass through the caustic dip tank facility. Reliable cleaning performance is thus a vital and continuous requirement, with the accuracy of Lanemark's TX gas fired immersed tube heating technology making an important contribution in this regard – an operating temperature of between 98°C and 100°C is consistently maintained. Moreover, the Lanemark TX gas fired immersed tube heating system operates in excess of 80% efficiency – of particular relevance in terms of both process performance and operating costs.
"The name of Nissan is associated with high volume, high quality automotive production worldwide and thus we are fully aware of the company's commitment to manufacturing processes of the highest standards," concludes Jeff Foster. "We believe the decision to specify our equipment in this context pays testimony both to its performance and to the reliability and consistency that can be achieved with our process burner and associated tank designs."

this stuff is amazing. have no complaints about it. My 2001 A6 Avant looks beautiful inside after using this...
Excellent product and like others said before, it doesn't leave your car smelling like cheap ArmorAll product (particularly when u want to keep that new car scent :-) !
Typically I use cleaning products that one can get from AutoZone. I do not like high gloss interior cleaning/protectant products. I always like to try something new and figured why not "treat" our 2009 A4 & 2012 A6 to something that Audi makes. This is an aresol spray bottle...not a pump spray. It makes application of the product very easy and consistent. It does EXACTLY what it says it does.....almost matte finish and does not smell like a chemical bath. I was pleasantly surprised in how effective it was. It didn't leave any blotches of glossiness as some other brands do. My sucess with this product makes me want to try some others in the Audi line.

Another option is to download the latest Adobe DNG Converter.
VitorMachado wrote that already.
Another option is to download the latest Adobe DNG Converter.
Another option instead of using Adobe DNG Converter - try Import to Lightroom as DNG.
When you import to Lightroom you can just choose 'Copy as DNG'. Lightroom converts to DNG as it imports your photos.
Then you can easily open, edit, merge, etc your images straight from Lightroom to Photoshop CS5 without the ACR problems.
Just remember to check the Lightroom prefs for DNG Conversion compatibility so, it matches whichever version of Camera Raw you have - i.e. Camera Raw 6.6 for CS5.
Also, look at the 'Embed Original Raw' option. Embedding keeps another copy of the raw file inside the DNG so, there'd be basically two copies of your photo in each DNG - which of course, means huge DNG files. I'd leave this off and just keep my original CR2s in an archive backup somewhere safe and just use normal non-embedded DNGs as my working image files.
Thanks everyone! I have not used the DNG format in the past, but now you have me thinking. If I just convert from CR2 to DNG, do I lose anything?
The latest version of ACR for Photoshop CS5 should be working with the 6D.
nope it does not.

It was an ambitious goal to bring the black bear population back to the Cumberland Plateau, but what some see as success others call a growing problem.
The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency moved two dozen black bears to the Big South Fork in the 1990s, but those bears love to eat, and they keep getting into some family farms.
Fentress County resident Lathern Hull and his family didn't even plant sweet corn this year. Bears love sweet corn, so he now keeps his garden small and close to the house.
"That's the problems that we're having, the bee hives, raiding peoples barns, tearing fences down, just bears being bears," Hull said.
The Hull family has lived in Allardt, TN, since 1858. They say it's been a 100 years since bears have caused this many problems, so they think it's time for an official bear hunting season.
"We have asked for the last several years for a hunting season to control the population and manage it. Now something has got to be done," Hull said.
The TWRA says black bears are now in Cumberland, Scott, Morgan, Fentress and Pickett counties and says just because they are doing well doesn't mean it's time to start hunting them.
"There's a lot we need to learn about that population before we as resource managers can feel really comfortable about opening a hunt on those bears," said TWRA official Kirk Miles.
The TWRA says they will help trap bears and give homeowners advice on how to keep crops safe.
Hull said the advice usually costs families money, and it's much more cost effective to stop the problem with a hunting season.
Currently, there is a black bear hunting season scheduled in 12 Tennessee counties, but nowhere near Middle Tennessee.
Some 250 people from the Cumberland Plateau signed a petition urging the TWRA to have some kind of limited black bear hunting season. The current population of black bears is estimated at 246.

It's been a long week for Iowa, coming off of a loss against one of the worst teams in the FBS, lowly Minnesota. But the Hawkeyes appear to be trying to make up for it this week, and enter halftime leading ranked Michigan 17-6.
Iowa's James Vandenberg is 9-of-12 for 114 yards and a touchdown passing, while Marcus Coker has chipped in 74 yards and a touchdown on 15 carries. Denard Robinson has been less successful for Michigan, completing six of his 13 passing attempts for 64 yards, a touchdown and an interception. (Michigan missed the extra point.) He's rushed for just 10 yards, though his longest run went for 19. Fitzgerald Toussaint has 46 yards on nine carries to lead the Wolverines on the ground.
Of course, Iowa led Minnesota 21-10 in the fourth quarter before losing that one. So don't give up on Michigan in this one just yet.

text: Items 73 to 96 of 189 total Previous 1 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 ... 8 Next View: 12 / 24 / 48 Thank goodness By Joseph on 12/22/2012 Joseph would recommend this product to a friend Phosphates fianlly easy to check. I love all 4 that I use. Just waiting for the nitrae checker to come out or even better an all in one. Awesome By Chad on 12/15/2012 Chad would recommend this product to a friend Hanna Checkers are downright awesome. Accurate, digital, takes less than five minutes. They are the best meters I have every used. Ok but be careful By Grant on 12/5/2012 Grant would recommend this product to a friend In the instructions it says after adding the reagent to shake for 2 minutes. But the colorimeter turns off after 2 minutes. So I have wasted 2 of the reagent packets out of the few that come with it and have yet to accurately test my water. Obviously a user error but just a tip. definately worth the purchase By DANIEL on 12/1/2012 DANIEL would recommend this product to a friend Love the precision of the digital readout. No more guessing color shades. 5 stars. Minor item(s) - only 6 tests provided with kit. Also, small amount of effort to learn how to pop off plastic lid cleanly. Check it, mate By Old Salt on 11/30/2012 Old Salt would recommend this product to a friend Well worth the investment and once you get the hang of dumping in the powder--can be dicey at first--it's very easy to use. You do have to keep buying the reagent, but I use my checker sparingly, mainly to check up on an API kit that I use 2-3 times a week. The combination allows me to keep a close eye on phosphates. Great Product By william on 11/28/2012 william would recommend this product to a friend I currently have the Calcium, ALK, and Phosphate checkers, and they make testing the water amazingly easy. I was using ELOS kits before hand and these take 1/2 the time the others do. I still test with elos bi-monthly to ensure the Hanna's are still reading correctly. Wish they had more regents with the initial purchase. OK but hard to use properly By Andy on 11/28/2012 Andy would recommend this product to a friend I only recommend this because the alternatives are horrible or a lot more money. It is very hard to get all of the powder reagent out of the package, and opening the package properly and actually getting the powder in the vial is an art unto itself. This part will take you a few minutes alone. Then the joy begins when you try to get the powder to actually dissolve, and then stop bubbles on the cuvette. If you don't get it dissolved or free from bubbles, the results will be wildly off. I tested the same water with bubbles on the glass and without. With bubbles it was saying the phosphate was 5ppm! Without bubbles, 0.01ppm. Great Product By Charles on 11/27/2012 Charles would recommend this product to a friend Great product that is easy to use. Reliable phosphate tester and you wont have to guess have you phosphate really is. Not Bad By Justin on 11/17/2012 Justin would recommend this product to a friend I found it difficult to use when I first started. Once you get the hang of it, it will give you an accurate reading. No more guesswork By Subodh on 11/13/2012 Subodh would recommend this product to a friend ok, I'm assuming everyone did their homework and the numbers shown by this thing are perfect and tested. Just kidding, I cross-checked with the Red Sea kit. Hanna showed me 0.13 and red Sea Phosphate check came up between 0 and .25 Close enough for me. I did take the one star off because - how the heck is one supposed to get all the darn powder from that pouch into the vial with that tiny a hole? I'll tell you how but not before I had to rack my brains. Get a clean sheet of A4 size paper, tear open the sachet, drop everything onto the paper, now lift it up and make a cone shape, drop the powder into the vial. I almost took off another point for packing just 6 sachets. But well, it works well, instructions are clear and concise and no more asking the wife to read the damn colors. I guess I'll try the other Hannah checkers as well. might work might not By brad on 11/6/2012 brad wouldn't recommend this product to a friend hell i just got my hanna hi 713 today all excited to test phosphate. so i open it and go step by step testing my water waiting on this high reading to show up because i have algae growing every where. well is shows 0.00 on test one I think well that cant be right so i test it again same deal 0.00 ok so i text my tap water 0.03 so there is 3 of my 6 test wasted imo, I know the tank has po4 i got this with a gof reactor to test weekly to me it dont seem to work Easy enough By Edward on 9/28/2012 Edward would recommend this product to a friend There are two reasons I gave 4 stars instead of 5. First is that the syringe that is used to get the reagent does not always attach firmly to the tip supplied. As such, it can drip out and you have to push the tip on again. The second reason is that at the levels of phosphate I run (reef), I wish BFS carried the ULR phosphorous Hanna Checker. Even though it is not phosphate, you can calculate that by multiplying by about 3. That unit has more accuracy and can read a little lower. But I suppose the phosphate one cannot be faulted as it does what it is supposed to and is easy to use other than the tip on the syringe. Simply easy to use By Ray on 9/27/2012 Ray would recommend this product to a friend i love this product. it is very accurate and if you are running GFO it is a must. Make sure you add a few extra reagent packets to your order! Simply the best By Rich on 9/24/2012 Rich would recommend this product to a friend The Hanna Checker is simply the fastest and easiest way to check my reefs phosphate. I've been in the hobby for over 15 years. As a reefer who is also legally blind reading test kits and colors has always been hard… This actually made my reef keeping life simple again! no more guessing By r. wilmeth on 9/22/2012 r. wilmeth would recommend this product to a friend it is nice to be able to know for sure what your tanks levels are. for me there was a little bit of a learning curve and i used a lot of the reagent. you should buy extra reagent when you make your purchase. you do need to use caution opening the cap or you could break it.over all i am very pleased and glad i bought it. Accurate, but... By james on 9/22/2012 james wouldn't recommend this product to a friend I absolutely loathe the reagent packets. I wish it was a liquid reagent like the Hanna Alk, but unfortunately it is not. Instead (as another poster mentioned) you have to dump the contents of a small packet of powder into the hole of one of the test vials. It makes it a bit of a pain to work with. Phosphate test, without a useless color to decipher By Keith on 9/7/2012 Keith would recommend this product to a friend I finally know what my phosphate is at, thanks to not having decipher a shade of blue, that looks diffrent to everyone that looks at it. Wish it came with more reagents but the refill kit is pretty cheap. hassle to use due to manual dexterity By Join the Revolution on 9/6/2012 Join the Revolution wouldn't recommend this product to a friend Do not buy it. Go Salifert, or other means. This test would be a great if it was designed to work with ease. This test tries to be innovative ,but titration is much easier and guessing is eliminated. Who wants to pour a small pack of powder into a small hole the diameter of a dime???! The lid is difficult to open and the instructions are so 3rd world. Next.. Seems to work but cheaply made By Steven on 9/4/2012 Steven would recommend this product to a friend The meter seems to work fine, but be made of cheap plastic. The second or third time I snapped the lid open, it came off. It looks like there are only two small ultrasonic welds that hold the top part on. The meter still seems to work fine, but I have to keep pushing it back together every time I open the lid. great By Chris on 9/1/2012 Chris would recommend this product to a friend I just got this the other night along with the calcium test kit from hanna. The alk is a lot easier to test for and the reading was up to par with my other test kits. Only time will tell Accurate and FAST! By Damian on 8/31/2012 Damian would recommend this product to a friend I cannot tell the shades of blue apart on the regular phosphate test kits, so the checker was an easy choice when it was time to get a new test kit. You won't be disappointed if you like to track phosphate. Love it! By BRIAN on 8/30/2012 BRIAN would recommend this product to a friend I absolutely love my Hanna PO4 checker. Being colorblind I no longer have to bother the wife to compare colors for me. It's very easy to use and has always provided me consistent results. I'll never go back to the old way of testing PO4 again. Must Have By Waterart on 8/29/2012 Waterart would recommend this product to a friend This is an essential tool for any reef keeper. Very fast and easy to perform tests. Essential By Robert on 8/23/2012 Robert would recommend this product to a friend I have the low-range phosphate colorimeter. Upon receiving, I opened the top of the unit and the entire top white part separated from rest of the body (the small plastic pins holding it sheared away)--a rather inauspicious start. It is still usable and I don't want to screw around with returning it--despite BRS and their excellent return policies. I just have to hold the white part against the rest of the body and it works OK. WATCH OUT for the regent. Use a scissors and OPEN CAREFULLY! This stuff has a very low PH and will irritate skin noticeably. In addition, the reagent is a little tricky to pour out of the envelope which can increase risk for accidental spillage. Again, use care with this reagent. Other than questionable quality or quality control of the physical unit and the nasty reagent, I cannot possibly imagine living without this essential instrument.

[ Security expert Roger A. Grimes offers a guided tour of the latest threats and explains what you can do to stop them in "Fight Today's Malware," InfoWorld's Shop Talk video. | Keep up with key security issues with InfoWorld's Security Adviser blog and Security Central newsletter. ]
Cisco's security products today range from firewall/VPNs, intrusion-prevention systems, to Web and messaging security gateways. Cisco also recently acquired IPS and threat detection vendor Sourcefire. Palma suggested that Cisco may also plan to broaden its partnerships in new ways with other security product and service providers.

Before joining Cisco, Palma was vice president of Cyber and Security Solutions at Boeing, which sold products and services related to network surveillance, data analytics, and cyber simulation to the federal sector as well as private-sector customers globally. Prior to that, Palma worked at PepsiCo as chief information security officer and at HP as vice president of service delivery operations. He also served as a special agent with the U.S. Secret Service on cybercrime.
"I think the best opportunity for them to focus on services is on the network security side," says John Grady, research manager, security products at IDC. With Cisco bringing the Sourcefire portfolio into its fold, "the implementation and consulting around IPS and advanced threat detection will be important. Also, managed offerings leveraging the existing ASA portfolio and Sourcefire products across the broad would see traction."
Grady adds, "But it will be tough." Cisco may want to convert existing customers into managed security service customers, he notes. That may certainly be possible, but there is already competition among managed security service providers (MSSP) that may support Cisco equipment. In addition, Grady points out, product competitors such as Fortinet and Dell with its SonicWall gear have strong relationships in the MSSP space.
Nonetheless, in terms of sheer products, Cisco remains the market leader in network security, though its lead has been under pressure for the last few years, Grady says. "This is true in the combined firewall/UTM space, where they have nearly 21% of the market but have lost share to competitors like Check Point, Fortinet and Palo Alto. Also in the IPS space, where they have a 14.4% share but have lost to McAfee and Sourcefire over the past couple of years."

Well, two years have passed which means it's time for another "Underworld" movie aka the other female-led supernatural franchise that isn't "Resident Evil." And note, this one brings Kate Beckinsale back to the fold after the origin story flick "Underworld: Rise Of The Lycans."
"Underworld: Awakening" has unleashed its first trailer and it seems Swedish directors Måns Mårlind and Björn Stein were determined to give the entire film an icy blue look. It's kind of weird, giving the whole thing a dull but shiny monochromatic color scheme that, even worse, has been done before. But it's the least of the problems with the trailer, as the whole thing feels like a movie Milla Jovovich turned down. Isn't one movie with a lithe woman sliding on her knees in slo-mo enough? Guess not. But what do we know? The films are fairly inexpensive to make, and have done pretty well with "Underworld: Evolution" cracking $100 million worldwide. Clearly, the fans are out there.
Get your fix of vampires and lycans on January 20th. Trailer below. [via Movielist]

While no one except them knows whether or not they have been trying, it is strange that after seven years of marriage, Kate Beckinsale still hasn't had any children with Len Wiseman. He has selflessly helped raise her daughter for all this time and she seems solely focused on her career.

Compared to Day 2's uproar of upsets, Day 3 only had a blip on the radar of lost seeds in the 2012 Qatar Open.
No. 14 seeded Svetlana Kuznetsova of Russia was the only seed to lose in the third round of the tournament in Doha. She dropped her match 7-6 (6), 6-3 to Lucie Safarova of the Czech Repubilc. The victory is Safarova's second upset of a seed in just three rounds. She knocked No. 2 seed Caroline Wozniacki from the tournament in the previous round.
From The Washington Post:
"I like to play on these courts and I feel confident here. I did very well last night against Caroline and followed that up with a very tough match against Svetlana," Safarova said. "Everything is just clicking together for me this week. I feel very good on serve and it's helping me to win points in key moments."
As for the rest of the seeds, No. 1 Victoria Azarenka beat her opponent, Simona Halep 6-3, 6-1 in a one hour and 20 minute match. The match started in Halep's favor when Azarenka fell to 3-1 in the first set. The tournament's No. 1 seed won the next eight games to bring the match to 3-0 before giving up her final game of the match before she went on to victory.
No. 3 seeded Sam Stosur also advanced to the quarterfinals. The Australian defeated Petra Cetkovska 6-3, 6-2. Stosur won 71 percent of her first service points.
No. 4 seeded Agnieszka Radwanska and No. 5 seeded Marion Bartoli also won their third round matches in straight sets.
No seeds will face for the fourth straight day in Doha.

A Howard County Grand Jury Wednesday indicted a 37-year-old Gwynn Oak man on several charges related to accusations that he sexually assaulted students at the Maryland School for the Deaf.
Clarence Cepheus Taylor faces seven counts of sexual abuse of a minor and three counts of soliciting a subject for child porn. He has been suspended from his job as a teachers' aide at the school, according to Howard County police.
Taylor was employed as an evening-shift dorm aide at the school between 2008 and 2010 when, according to police, he inappropriately touched female students.
In early December 2012, police said that one of the girls had reported the alleged incidents to a teacher when she learned that she may not have been the only victim, according to police.
At that time, police reported that three girls said they were touched inappropriately by Taylor while in the dorms on the school's Howard County campus, which sits near the nexus of Ellicott City, Columbia and Elkridge.
Administrators at the Columbia campus of the Maryland School for the Deaf would not comment. A statement in December from the school superintendent's office, at the school's Frederick campus, read:
"This is an ongoing investigation being handled by the Howard County Police, and MSD [Maryland School for the Deaf] is not at liberty to comment about this case."

I really love this wallet! Perfect size for my purse and I love the wrist strap option. But - I bought this right before I got a smartphone (Galaxy III) specifically so I could carry just the wallet with my phone in it and my phone JUST barely fits. If I had gotten a slightly larger phone there is no way it would have fit. I would have given 5 stars if the phone had fit a little better.
Wednesday June 18 2014
5 stars! I would give it more if I could. I have had this style of sakroots wristlet for a while now and absolutely love it! Not only is product great but the customer service is outstanding! I had to return one and it was taken back with no hesitation at all! So pleased!
Wednesday March 26 2014
I bought this from Macy's the second I saw it because it was exactly what I was looking for. Cute, great size, and can carry my smartphone. Unfortunately, like so many others, I realized the zipper's quality is extremely sub par and now it's broken. Disappointed :/

Whirlwind week for One direction star Harry Styles and Taylor Swift cupcake couple from Chapleford, Warrington
9:00am Tuesday 18th December 2012 in News
IT has been a whirlwind week for Chapelford couple Matt and Kelly Blakey after a member of the world's biggest boyband arrived on their doorstep.
One Direction's Harry Styles ordered 23 cupcakes from the Custom Cupcake Company to mark his American singer girlfriend Taylor Swift's 23rd birthday last week.
Since then the business, based in the newly wed's home on Montgomery Close, has gone global hitting the headlines in Hollywood and receiving orders from Florida in America.
Matt, aged 40, said: "It's been mindblowing.
"We have had people ringing up and asking for exactly the same order as Harry's and orders from America.
"The phone has been non-stop with calls from American national entertainment channel E News and celebrity magazines including US Weekly and The Sun newspaper.
"It's crazy considering at first we just thought it was a wind up."
The former chef, who trained at the Hong Kong Hilton and is known as the cupcake man in Chapelford due to his bright purple hair, received a call last Wednesday asking for 23 cakes urgently.
He added: "The woman said it was for Harry Styles but I didn't know who that was at first and then just thought it was someone winding me up.
"We had got a lot of orders before Christmas but she said he desperately needed them.
"It was only afterwards we looked on the internet and saw it was his girlfriend's birthday today and she was 23."
The popstar picked up a selection of 12 flavours including ones filled with candy floss and a mint liqueur centre.
Kelly, aged 36, added: "I was a real professional until I closed the door and then I went a bit giddy.
"Matt hadn't told me the cakes were for Harry Styles so I was really surprised when I opened the front door to him covered in icing sugar.
"He was a lovely, down to earth guy."

Man buys cakes and we get THREE stories about it - pathetic!
If I owned the cake shop, I'd refuse to serve him on the basis of grounds that their music and everything about them is utter gash.
