Great Goggles for Daily use
from Williamsburg, VA
on 9/10/2013
These are great goggles for daily swim practice use. They do not fog, leak and have a good snug fit. I have used them in pool and open water triathlons as well. Very reliable.

Great goggles! Very happy with product.
Highly recommended goggles
from antelope valley
on 9/6/2013
Other goggles always tend to fog for me except for this one which states its anti-fog. It's really comfortable & stays on very firmly without having to adjust in-between laps. My first pair was a speed socket but it wasn't mirrored. I simply wanted a mirrored one & purchased a speedo liquid storm but it didn't feel too comfortable. I decided to look for a speed socket & found this pair. Very pleased with my selection.
Great Goggles!! Misleading Picture...

i have never used black mirror swim goggle cuz its too dark at indoor so i always use bright color before but when i got this goggle i was so surprise cuz it is not that dark what i thought before. It was so nice view in the water indsoor swimming pool im so so happy to have this goggle and i 100% recommend this goggle for everyone who just didnt have tried before just go for it~!!! Trust me its unbelievable

Great wear, Great fit, NO leaks. Always in the eye socket!
Recommend to serious competitive swimmers
from IL
on 11/11/2014
I love these goggles. However, at first they really hurt around your eyes and they take a while to get used to. Looking around under water in these for the first time made my eyes hurt and I couldn't really see well. After getting used to the magnification of the lenses and the cushion part on my eyes they worked great! Love them, just need time to break them in.
Favorite Racing Goggle!
from TX
on 8/21/2014
Purchased the Speed Socket and the Arena racing goggles to find a new goggle for competition. While both are quality goggles, the Speedo Speed Socket stays put during block starts and backstroke starts (round strap on the Arena allows movement during backstroke starts). The low profile design is comfortable and feels fast while racing.
More than expected
from Philadelphia, pa
on 8/13/2014
Does not leak.......Period! Best swim goggle on market

Steele's IPA book
Hasn't arrived yet, but it's "Out for delivery," which usually means it'll show up in the middle of dinner. It's 5 pounds of vienna malt, some munich, caramunich, and crystal, plus a couple vials of yeast and miscellaneous other bits. Now I have to decide whether I can get it together to make up a starter and brew on Sunday, or wait at least another two weeks if not. Decisions, decisions.... leaning toward getting it done this weekend because the grains are already crushed!
9 1/2 pounds of Golden Light Malt Extract

5oz Centennial hop pellets

Going to be brewing a Two Hearted Ale clone this weekend (and bottling my first homebrew the day before!), but splitting the 5 gallon batch into two fermenters and pitching one with US-05 and the other with #1056. I read reviews on both and couldn't decide which I wanted, so I got both and decided to take the mad scientist route to determine which yeast I like better.

A man who just died is delivered to a local mortuary wearing an expensive, expertly tailored black suit.
The female blonde mortician asks the deceased's wife how she would like the body dressed. She points out that the man does look good in the black suit he is already wearing.
The widow, however, says that she always thought her husband looked his best in blue, and that she wants him in a blue suit. She gives the Blonde mortician a blank check and says, 'I don't care what it costs, but please have my husband in a blue suit for the viewing.'
The woman returns the next day for the wake. To her delight, she finds her husband dressed in a gorgeous blue suit with a subtle chalk stripe; the suit fits him perfectly .
She says to the mortician, 'Whatever this cost, I'm very satisfied. You did an excellent job and I' m very grateful. How much did you spend?' To her astonishment, the blonde mortician presents her with the blank check.
'There's no charg e,' she says.
'No, really, I must compensate you for the cost of that exquisite blue suit!' she says.
'Honestly, ma'am,' the blonde says, 'it cost nothing. You see, a deceased gentleman of about your husband's size was brought in shortly after you left yesterday, and he was wearing an attractive blue suit. I asked his wife if she minded him going to his grave wearing a black suit instead, and she said it made no difference as long as he looked nice.'
'So I just switched the heads.'
"Flo-yo," or floating yoga, is the newest fitness fad to hit the United States. You join a class that paddling out anywhere from 10 to 30 minutes, then parking in an inlet, cove or key (any calm, glassy-watered spot) for 30 to 60 minutes of yoga moves on an 11 1/2-foot long, 29-inch wide paddleboard.
"We start as you would any traditional yoga class and open with chanting and some breathing practices, and then warm up with standing postures and lunges," says Tara McCabe, the owner of the Key West Stand Up Paddle Board Yoga, according to MSNBC. McCabe's class runs two hours -- 30 minutes of paddling each way with an hour of yoga.
Scotty Bumbalough, owner of Maui B in Orlando, Daytona and Coco Beach, says classes are for all skill sets but do require a sense of balance. Flo-yo develops a sense of focus, core strength and improves your stabilizer muscles. Paddling in and out to practice provides a workout and a sense of meditative calm as well.
Check out what it looks like:
The Memory Study is winding down. I have only to weeks more to go. Tomorrow I am considered in the washout periods, no more pills and I have to go back next Tuesday. I will never know if I had the placebo or the real thing. I think I have been getting the real pill because I have developed a pretty scary thing that I needed to get a cat scan done today. Don't want to go into more at this time till I know what the results are. I'll blog about that at the end of the month as my return appointment for that Doctor is the end of September.
Back to the Memory Study; they changed the protocol by giving us the results of what they found in the spinal fluid. Prior to this change we were not to be told the results. We could opt out of the spinal tap if we wanted to.
I originally opted out because I am a chicken and even though they said it was perfectly safe I was still afraid I would be paralyzed. I am like you want to stick what in my spinal column and remove spinal fluid. Then to top that off you are not going to tell me the results. l don't think so!
Then this morning they said if we chose to get it done we would find out if we already have the start of Alzheimer's or if it shows we are likely to develop it later on. I honestly can't remember, thus the memory study but I think the doctor said they can see if we have the gene that is a precursor for Alzheimer's.
So I am weighing possible paralysis if they miss with the needle in my spinal cord or the peace of mind knowing if I do or will or will not develop Alzheimer's. I chose to gamble by doing the test saying it is highly unlikely I would become paralyzed. It did not hurt while being done by after the local wore off - OMG I am dying. It hurts bad. It is both a pain and pressure back there. They lied! It does hurt. I hurts after.
Yeah I know I am a big baby but it was scary. Never want to go through that again. I would opt for a MRI 1st and we all know how much I hate them.
They told me to go home and rest. Not to do anything strenuous. This time I listened. I am not doing anything.
The Elevator
In the week before Labor Day, Eli, a poor country farmer won $480,000 in the Lottery. As a treat he took his wife and their four children to see the Labor Day parade in New York.
They booked into the Sheraton International at the corner of Park Circle and Central Park North. Having never been further than their local town, Benton in Arkansas they were bowled over by glitz and excitement of the "Big Apple".
Eli and his son Clem were especially mesmerised by a shiny box with silver walls. They had never before met with doors that could move apart, and then automatically come back together again. Neither had seen an elevator [lift] before. Therefore, they were amazed when a little old lady entered the shiny box and the door closed. The lights outside on the wall flashed for a minute, then the doors opened and out came a beautiful young woman.
Eli turned to his son Clem and said, 'Son, go get your mother.'
The Final Payment
Roland, a businessman, is on his deathbed so he calls his friend and says, 'Eli, I want you to promise me that when I die you will have my remains cremated.'
'And what,' Eli asks, 'do you want me to do with your ashes?'
Roland replies, 'Just put them in an envelope and mail them to the Internal Revenue Service and write on the envelope, 'Now you have everything.'
The Worker
The Castle Rock, Colorado, Wage and Hours Government Department claimed Mickey was not paying proper wages to his help and sent an agent out to interview him.
'I need a list of your employees and how much you pay them,' demanded the agent.
'Well,' replied old Mickey, 'There's my ranch hand who's been with me for 3 years. I pay him $600 a week plus free room and board. The cook has been here for 18 months, and I pay her $500 a week plus free room and board. Then there's the half-wit who works about 18 hours every day and does about 90% of all the work around here. He makes about $10 per week, pays his own room and board and I buy him a bottle of bourbon every Saturday night.'
'That's the guy I want to talk to, the half-wit,' says the agent.
'That would be me,' replied old rancher Mickey.
Happy Labor Day everyone, enjoy the last days of summer ...
As I was entering my 2nd snack for the day I realized that everything I ate today was green. Well almost everything, my 1st snack was raw corn, yup you read that right. Raw corn tastes like candy it is so sweet. Anyways it was green before I shucked it.
I decided to clean the refrigerator today as one of my projects. I had green grapes in the fridge that were a week old so I made a green smoothie with green grapes, spinach, and bananas for breakfast.
I had avocados in the fridge and I was crossing my fingers that I did not have to throw them out. I decided on making my Raw Creamy Cucumber Soup which is one of my favorite Raw soups. Crossed my fingers and threw everything in the blender and held my breath till I sliced open the ripest avocado. I had 3 in the fridge. Whew, I was lucky it was perfect, no sign of getting any dark spots inside. Avocados have been a little pricey lately. Let's just say I will be eating avocado in some form for the next few days to make sure I don't have to throw them out. The soup became my lunch.
Cleaning the fridge also uncovered a head of celery that was starting to turn brown on the ends because I didn't wrap it up properly the last time I used a stalk. What to do, what to do. I got an aha moment and decided to make a Raw celery soup. Never made one before so I just played around with it and made it like my Raw Creamy Cucumber Soup but kicked up the cayenne since celery can be bland. It worked. I went a little heavy on the cayenne, it was still good but next time I think I will just do a dusting of cayenne.
I already put it into SparkRecipes because I am sure I will forget about celery again. I don't use it that often and you have no choice but to buy a whole head and just hope you use it up.
Casualties did not end there. I had bought a beautiful huge head of broccoli and forgot about it. I was meaning to make Raw Broccoli Pie but got sidetracked during the week. Broccoli isn't good raw unless it is fresh. Didn't want to throw it out so I minced up some garlic, added a Tbsp. of sesame oil. I precooked the broccoli in the microwave to retain the vitamins and just saut�ed that in the garlic and sesame oil. Not Raw but it was yummy. Oh yeah, sprinkled in some turmeric as well. Turmeric is good for Alzheimer's.
Now I am stuffed! Need to change colors for tomorrow.

What's the point of never knowing at all?
When every step I take is always too small.
Maybe it's just something I can't admit,
But lately I feel like I don't give a shit.
Motivation such an aggravation
Accusations don't know how to take them
Inspiration getting hard to fake it Concentration never hard to break it
Situation never what you want it to be
What's the point of never making mistakes
Self-indulgence's such a hard habit to break
It's all just a waste of time in the end
Find more lyrics on http://mp3lyrics.com
Don't care, so why should I even pretend?

Never what you want it to be,
Never what you want it to be

From managing hard-copy information to emails, instant messages and social media, those individuals responsible for an organization's information assets must evolve with technology.
From managing hard-copy information to emails, instant messages and social media, those individuals responsible for an organization's information assets must evolve with technology. Today, that responsibility spans the enterprise, involving not only the records and information management (RIM) staff, but also legal, IT and business unit leaders as well as individual employees.
With every technological development, organizations have to understand how information is being created, stored, retained, retrieved and disposed of and must implement policies, procedures and training to ensure those activities are done in compliance with their organizations' business, legal, regulatory and historical needs.
Collaboration between records and information managers and other business units is paramount, especially when it comes to securing storage and destruction options.
That is why, as organizations adopt new technologies, it is important to understand the their impact on retention and destruction. Fortunately, several organizations are developing models to assist in governing data.
The electronic discovery reference model (EDRM) recognizes that an organization's discovery actions will be handicapped if the information created and used in the course of business is not effectively managed prior to litigation. The ARMA International-developed Generally Accepted Recordkeeping Principles® (the Principles) provide best practice guidance for doing just that.
Further work between ARMA International and EDRM expanded on the collaboration for information governance success in the information governance reference model (IGRM). The IGRM identifies the cross-functional groups of key information governance stakeholders and depicts their intersecting objectives for the organization. Cooperation among these stakeholders is necessary to achieve information governance maturity.
Together, the Principles® and the IGRM provide a scalable, broadly applicable set of tools to address the complex issues surrounding the creation, management, destruction and governance of electronic information.

Blog: Drinktec - hedonism everywhere
Olly Wehring | 16 September 2009
Today (16 September) marks the changing of the guard at the Drinktec show in Munich, as one team of just-drinks' personnel is swapped for another for the second half of the week. So, if you are at the venue and want to catch up with editor Olly Wehring between now and Friday, drop us a line and we will arrange a time to meet.
In the meantime, I am bidding farewell to Drinktec until 2013 – I am not taking a prolonged sabbatical, the show is only held every four years. It's been a fascinating few days. We have developed a string of new contacts within areas of the drinks industry I have not been heavily involved in before, from ingredients to technology, and it would be remiss of me not to thank everyone we visited for the warm welcome we received on each stand.
The sheer size of the show and some of the stands – Krones, Cargill and KHS's efforts practically filled whole exhibition halls on their own – are the most obvious memories I'll take away. But, even more encouraging was the positive atmosphere that pervaded the exhibition halls. It's at this level, amongst the engineers, food ingredient scientists and developers, that you see innovation in the drinks industry at its rawest, and there was a clear sense that this agenda was alive and well despite the global economy.
As well as stand-hopping, we managed to cram in a few of the seminars over the last couple of days, including Coke's aims to produce a viable 'water footprint' for its business. It's a project with a number of issues still to iron out and it will take time before it has the kind of traction with consumers that the carbon footprint principle does. But, given Coke's recent run-ins over various environmental issues – particularly some of the protests it has seen in India – this has the feel of a significant move by the drinks giant and one with implications for the whole industry.
Finally, it's also worth mentioning a seminar I attended hosted by research company AC Nielsen, because the findings of a study by the group demonstrated why the ingredients and technology companies – those in the health and wellness sectors especially - will be so key in driving growth in the drinks industry over coming years.
The study was on a newly-identified group of consumers known as LOHAS – which stands for Lifestyle of Health and Sustainability. Like many other marketing exercises, this was a term originally coined in the US. However, our host at AC Nielsen , Harald Eirund, argued that this was not another esoteric new group but a hugely important band of consumers who already account for 30% of all German consumers and 20% of all those buying FMCG products in the US.
Furthermore, they have already affected the strategies of retailers from the supermarkets to the discounters and from producers in chocolate to beer.
AC Nielsen started to track these consumers two years ago and has subsequently split LOHAS into seven subsets: mature, community, ideologists, frugal preservers, trendy hedonists, body conscious and bargain hunters.
Eirund's main point was that LOHAS was not only a real and important group of consumers but also far from a fad. "We are not talking about about young, hip households, but older people too: people who love to spend money and love to live."
They are growing too on the back of rising levels of environmental discussion and climate issues.
As I bid farewell to Munich then, I'll leave you with this thought from Eirund's presentation on LOHAS - which proved to be the quote of the week so far - when trying to describe the LOHAS subset 'Trendy Hedonists'.
"They have a lot in common with the rest of LOHAS," he said, "as there is hedonism everywhere."
Hear, hear.

Chitosan nanoparticles for plasmid DNA delivery: effect of chitosan molecular structure on formulation and release characteristics.
ABSTRACT Chitosan can be useful as a nonviral vector for gene delivery. Although there are several reports to form chitosan-pDNA particles, the optimization and effect on transfection remain insufficient. The chitosan-pDNA nanoparticles were formulated using complex coacervation and solvent evaporation techniques. The important parameters for the encapsulation efficiency were investigated, including molecular weight and deacetylation degree of chitosan. We found that encapsulation efficiency of pDNA is directly proportional with deacetylation degree, but there is an inverse proportion with molecular weight of chitosan. DNA-nanoparticles in the size range of 450-820 nm depend on the formulation process. The surface charge of the nanoparticles prepared with complex coacervation method was slightly positive with a zeta potential of +9 to +18 mV; nevertheless, nanoparticles prepared with solvent evaporation method had a zeta potential approximately +30 mV. The pDNA-chitosan nanoparticles prepared by using high deacetylation degree chitosan having 92.7%, 98.0%, and 90.4% encapsulation efficiency protect the encapsulated pDNA from nuclease degradation as shown by electrophoretic mobility analysis. The release of pDNA from the formulation prepared by complex coacervation was completed in 24 hr whereas the formulation prepared by evaporation technique released pDNA in 96 hr, but these release profiles are not statistically significant compared with formulations with similar structure (p > .05). According to the results, we suggest nanoparticles have the potential to be used as a transfer vector in further studies.

Article: RNA-Loaded Chitosan Nanoparticles for Enhanced Growth, Immunostimulation and Disease Resistance in Fish[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Exogenous nucleotide supplementation during times of rapid growth and stress is preferred because de novo synthesis is insufficient and energetically a costly process. To overcome inefficient utilization of dietary nucleotides due to intestinal cell repulsion and dependency on pH, an efficient controlled delivery system based on chitosan nanoparticles (NPs) was developed. The effects of these (0.2% and 0.4%) RNA-loaded chitosan NPs (Chitosan: RNA ratio 2:1), 0.4% bare RNA, and 0.8% chitosan NPs on productive efficiency (growth rate, feed conversion and protein efficiency ratio), body composition, organo-somatic indices, haemato-biochemical and immune responses (WBC count, phagocytic activity, serum lysozyme, serum total protein and albumin : globulin ratio) and survival of Labeo rohita fish fingerlings, following challenge with pathogenic bacteria were evaluated. Dietary chitosan NPs were found not to affect productive efficiency, but improved (P 0.05) by dietary treatments. RNA-loaded chitosan NPs increased hepato- and viscerosomatic indices. The activity of metabolic enzymes (intestinal and liver alkaline phosphatase, alanine- and aspartateamino transferases, lactate- and malate-dehydrogeneases) corresponded with the performance of the respective diets. As growth, immunity and disease resistance in fish given dietary nano-sized RNA were significantly higher than in those given bare RNA or chitosan alone, and as nanoformulation reduced the usage of individual components by half, the use of RNA-loaded chitosan NPs can be favoured in the feed/food industry over chitosan and RNA alone.Current Nanoscience 01/2014; 10(3). · 1.36 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: Gene transfer methods are promising in the field of gene therapy. Current methods for gene transfer include three major groups: viral, physical and chemical methods. This review mainly summarizes development of several types of chemical methods for gene transfer in vitro and in vivo by means of nano-carriers like; calcium phosphates, lipids, and cationic polymers including chitosan, polyethylenimine, polyamidoamine dendrimers, and poly(lactide-co-glycolide). This review also briefly introduces applications of these chemical methods for gene delivery.Theranostics 01/2014; 4(3):240-255. · 7.81 Impact Factor
Article: Chitosan nanoparticles as a potential nonviral gene delivery for HPV-16 E7 into mammalian cells.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Chitosan nanoparticles (CS NPs) were prepared as a carrier for Human papillomavirus type 16 HPV-16) E7 gene and their gene transfection ability were evaluated in vitro. The plasmid expressing green fluorescent protein (pEGFP) was used as a reporter gene. Gel electrophoresis demonstrated full binding of CS NPs with the pDNA. The transfection of CS-pEGFP NPs was efficient in CHO cells and the expression of green fluorescent proteins was well observed. The expression of E7 proteins was confirmed under SDS-PAGE and western blot analysis. As a conclusion CS NPs may serve as an effective nonviral carrier for delivery of nucleotides into eukaryotic cells.Artificial Cells Blood Substitutes and Biotechnology 03/2014; · 0.85 Impact Factor
