API pH Test Kit For Fresh Water Aquariums
The pH level is the measure of acidity of water. A pH reading of 7.0 is neutral. A pH higher than 7.0 is alkaline, and a pH lower than 7.0 is acidic. Maintaining the aquarium at the proper pH ensures optimal water quality. The pH should be tested weekly, since natural materials in the aquarium (such as fish waste and uneaten food) can cause pH shifts. Reads pH from 6.0 to 7.6. For freshwater use only.

Madhya Pradesh Tourism: Adopting 360-Degree Approach
MPSTDC celebrated its 34th foundation day on May 24, 2012. The state has evolved in its tourism offerings, adding Niche Tourism products and developing marketing strategies for highlighting its destinations in international and domestic markets.
TravelBiz Monitor
explores the business strategy of the state's tourism department
Madhya Pradesh (MP) has a unique heritage, wildlife, pilgrimage cities like Ujjain, Omkareshwar, Maheshwar, Chitrakoot and Amarkantak, spectacular natural beauty, pleasant climate, colourful tribals, and festivals. The state has UNESCO World Heritage Sites like Khajuraho, Sanchi and Bhimbetka. Tourism and cultural festivals are organised in Khajuraho, Orchha, Shivpuri, Bhopal, Sanchi, Mandu, Maheshwar and Gwalior. MP has nine national parks and 25 wildlife sanctuaries. Kanha, Bandhavgarh, Pench, Panna National Parks are all tiger reserve projects.
Presently, the Madhya Pradesh State Tourism Development Corporation (MPSTDC) owns hotels across the state, besides a number of wayside amenities, intra-air services, cruises, fleet of transport and caravan.
The number of tourists visiting MP has doubled in the last four years. However, it is the domestic tourists who formed a major part of these visitors. The increase in tourist traffic has been due to diverse tourism products introduced year-on-year by MPSTDC.
To capitalise on the rich assets of the state, MPSTDC has worked on a two-pronged strategy. Realising the vast potential of various tourism products, the Corporation came up with plans to promote them. Besides heritage and cultural offerings, MPSTDC has also highlighted Adventure, Eco, Wildlife, and Caravan Tourism products. The government, in association with the Corporation, has announced an Eco and Adventure Tourism Policy to popularise and promote these tourism segments.
MP is the first state to introduce Caravan Tourism and has received national award from the Ministry of Tourism, Govt. of India. Presently, MPSTDC has three caravans, one each stationed at Indore, Bhopal and Jabalpur. In addition, the Corporation is keen to develop Adventure Tourism in the state, besides offering water sports facility in the main water bodies of the state like Tawa, Gandhi Sagar and Bargi.
MP is the first state in India to provide intra-state air connectivity, which connects Bhopal, Jabalpur, Gwalior, Indore and Khajuraho. In addition, the Corporation is promoting Film Tourism. MPSTDC will be the nodal agency for facilitating film producers and help in getting all clearances/permissions for film shooting.
Raghwendra Kumar Singh (IAS), Managing Director, MPSTDC, informed, "As part of the future strategy, there is a plan to develop wayside amenities across the state. 268 spots have been identified for the purpose. In its endeavour to encourage public-private investment, 455 hectares of land is made available for the private investors through the land bank policy. In addition, the Corporation has identified a number of heritage properties to invite investors to develop them into hotels and resorts."
MPSTDC today has established the state as the 'Heart of Incredible India' on the global map by participating in various domestic and international tourism marts and trade fairs. Foreign tourist arrivals in the state have also increased over the years. MP recently received the 'Best Wildlife Destination' award from Lonely Planet.
Furthermore, the Tourism Policy released in 2010 envisages promotion of Sustainable Tourism, the key highlights being introduction of rebates on Entertainment Tax and Luxury Tax on new heritage hotels and Bed & Breakfast, and exemption of tourism projects from Stamp Duty. The tourism board is also exploring avenues for Medical Tourism in the state.
Innovation with Offbeat Ideas
Initiating many on-ground, Above-The-Line, Below-The-Line activities and online campaigns to highlight MP as 'The Heart of Incredible India', the first marketing campaign, 'Hindustan Ka Dil Dekho', was started in 2007, followed by 'Hindustan Ka Dil Dekha'. And in 2011, 'MP Ajab Hai, Sabse Gajab Hai' campaign was launched.
MP thus holds a distinct position in tourism promotion, compared to other Indian states.

My ex-girlfriend and I are moving apart and we need to decide who will get custody of our kid. I don't think she is stable and was wondering how much more difficult it is being granted sole custody versus joint custody?
You or your ex-girlfriend will need to file a Suit Affecting the Parent Child Relationship. Depending on your living situation you may want to act quickly since there are currently no "rules" in place if there is no pre-existing court order. The absence of a court order can be problematic since you and your ex-girlfriend will need to work out an informal agreement between the two of you and this historically leads to problems that can otherwise be avoided by hiring an attorney and filing a lawsuit.
If your ex-girlfriend agrees, there is little difference in the degree of difficulty. On the other hand, if she disputes it, is usually a lot more difficult! Now would be a good time for you to consult with a local attorney and review all your rights, options and obligations before you take any further action. You can find attorneys by searching among the profiles here on Avvo. Good luck!

Paul Evans Shoes Many brands have proven that the Internet-based, direct-to-consumer market is a thriving place, popular because it provides consumers with high end products that aren't marked up to cover brick-and-mortar store costs. Paul Evans believes that type of consumer should be literally well-heeled while saving a few bucks on what would normally be…

- very classyrosey2Dined on 11/22/2014From the drink at the bar to dessert it was amazing. The service from the greeter to getting our coats to the wait staff was aweasome.. Food was outstanding. thank you. we will be back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Lacking in many ways. They serve wine out of kegsVIPDinerVIPDined on 11/21/2014Horrible service- I would not recommend Harlow. The cocktail menu needs an overhaul. I've never heard of any restaurant serving Chardonnay out of kegs and their JV waitstaff even screwed up the element of surprise of a birthday dessert. I'll not return to this place.
- DON'T GOJcd5Dined on 11/15/2014Arrived at 7:30 at we were the only diners. Even so, it took over 15 minutes for our waiter to bring our drinks. The Hamachi appertizer had hoisin sauce straight from Food Emporium. The halibut entrée was clearly microwaved. And the lobster mac & cheese had almost no lobster. When the check finally arrived we were overcharged for one of the drinks and even after pointing it out an adjustment wasn't made. One of the worst dining experiences in quite a while.
- too much vinegarGoodyVIPDined on 11/8/2014This is a beautiful restuarant but the chef has a heavy hand with the vinegar bottle. The beat salad too much vinegar the octopus was amazing but you have to eat around the vinegar. Even the white wine by the glass selections all tasted like variations of vinegar. Both of our main course fish dishes were excellent. Especially if you are on a portion control diet.The food was just hit or miss for each course even the sides had too much vinegar . I would go to the bar for an upscale feel and stay there.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 11/6/2014Couldn't get the waiter's attendtion to order. Waited forever for the food. Then it came and we had to send it back as it was grossly undercooked. No concession offered on the bill. Why eat here when you are in NY?Special Features:
- Great placeAndyandAnnetteDined on 10/24/2014Great food, service. What a beautiful Resturant ! It's a winner. Would highly recommend.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- HarlowmoneDined on 9/26/2014l went to harlow with my family coming from country. I was sorry too unlike the HP photo and magazines. food was not special too.Special Features:
- Harlow... a gemmidtowndiningDined on 9/18/2014Best place to stop for a early or late evening cocktail in Midtown. Classy and fun. Food is excellent with tables spaced so you can enjoy a conversation as well as enjoy the vibrant atmosphere.Special Features:
- Harlow went downhill fast!FoodieVIPDined on 9/11/2014Very disappointing! I've been to Harlow, this being my 6th dining experience. You walk into the bar and the music is so loud, you think you are in a disco. The music is equally as loud in the dining room. I took an important client here, big mistake! The waitstaff seemed to be put out with questions on the menu, if they even knew what I was asking??? What happened to the waiters with jackets? What happened to the beautiful floral arrangements? The elegant dining experience, no longer exists at Harlow.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 9/5/2014Lovely decor. Very special. The lunch menu is a bit limited but the food was great.Special Features:
- SuperbChoosethebestVIPDined on 8/28/2014Great food and ambiance. Just hosted a farewell lunch there. No regret.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Amazing Drinks & Foodarb3nDined on 8/12/2014One of my favorite locations in Midtown, the Halibut is to die for and the Sashimi Appetizers - yam yam!!Special Features:
- Wanted to love itTheRegularDined on 8/12/2014Salad course was well prepared and flavorful. The chef suggestion for the salmon was medium rare, but it was really dry and hard on the outside and was cool and not cooked up to rare inside. It also left me with a terrible stomach ache about 2 hours later. If freshness was a concern at any point, the parfait told the whole story. It smelled like freezer burn and in a bite and I was convinced it had been sitting in the freezer for some time, instead of being made fresh. The servers were pushy with the timing of the service, the room was empty and the coffee, terrible. Though this review makes me sound picky, I'm generally quite forgiving, but unless someone overhauls the kitchen, including the chef, I won't return. No excuse in NYC.
- Lack of ambiancebas3Dined on 8/1/2014Went for lunch during restaurant week. The salad with goat cheese was not particular good. Main salmon entrée was good but the portion was tiny. Desert on the menu was substituted for a nice parfait by the restaurant. The picture on the site does not match the restaurant we were in. Main room is dark and bar like. The lighter outside space is small. Would not recommend because of the ambiance.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2007VIPDined on 8/1/2014My friend ordered the Hearts of Palm as her entree. The waiter said something about cauliflower but did not make it clear that Hearts of Palm was no longer an option. My friend was surprised to be served cauliflower. It was hard to get the waiter's attention although the restaurant was not busy.
- The following 127 reviews are from the Harlow reviews archive.
- Longlegs,shortskirts,mediocre foodSI2NYCVIPDined on 7/31/2014Nice ambiance too bad Food was mediocre. Lobster Mac was tasteless and came way late. Burger was well done instead of medium rare. Bus boy shattered 4 glasses w glass landing on patron and in food. Our waiter was very nice and gave free desserts.Special Features:
- Fabulous midtown gem!59momVIPDined on 7/30/2014Was not familiar with it, but client was and recommended. Beautifully done. Food delicious and ambiance makes for a very special lunch. Thoroughly enjoyable!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A menu heavy on comfort foodOpenTable Diner Since 2006VIPDined on 7/29/2014The food preparation was adequate but the menu was disappointingly heavy on comfort foods like lobster Mac & cheeseSpecial Features:
- EnjoyableDelicious1Dined on 7/29/2014The food was delicious but the portions too small. The service very slow. The ambiance is inviting and comfortable. Overall I enjoyed it.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Very disappointingFrequentEaterVIPDined on 7/29/2014I went to Harlow for lunch during restaurant week. Service was extremely disappointing. Had to wait 40 minutes to receive salad. Literally asked 5 times for bread before it was served, with each time someone promising to bring. Finally waiter said bread not usually served at lunch, but they would bring. Strange, because other tables had bread. Portions were TINY. Not sure why restaurant participated in restaurant week if they were going to serve such small portions as to make the experience not great. Food was good, but overall experience was not great.Special Features:
- Wish I had those 2 1/2 hours backlongwaitVIPDined on 7/29/2014We sat to eat at 12:15. We ordered drinks and our 3 courses. The food did not appear until 1:40. We ordered a salad and oysters. It should never take that long to get that. Our entrees came out around 2:10 and we received the desserts after that. We left at 2:40. Not enough wait staff. The waiter was very nice but it seemed like he was serving the entire restaurant. People on other tables walked out because they refused to wait longer. If I had not made the reservation on OpenTable I would have walked out. Never again!!!
- Not impressed with FoodopeneyesDined on 7/25/2014Decided to try for restaurant week and take advantage of the special. The portion were small, but that was ok I understand it was a special. Ordered the salmon half of it was raw and the other half over cooked. The cut of the salmon was not good, 1/2 of it was the grey fatty flesh. so between the bad cooking and the bad cut, it was pretty much inedible. My husband ordered the chicken, cooked beautiful, but nothing special basically pieces of boneless chicken on a plate, no sauce, no sides, very plain. The ambiance of this restaurant is beautiful. Amazing atmosphere. But the whole purpose of restaurant week is try it out and see if you like it enough to go back and pay full price. Not sure we will.Special Features:
- Excellence place!!madame2828VIPDined on 7/25/2014Very nice restaurant, food was excellence, the only problem I had was the server tried to put me at the bar area, although I was dining alone, as a lady, I requested to have a table instead. overall, is a restaurant I will come back again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- DisappointingroseknitterVIPDined on 7/24/2014We attended for Restaurant Week. Minimal offerings, of course - but they were out of one of them, and there was just one dessert. The service was slow and poor; stressed-out servers brought out food for 2 or 3 tables at once, so they placed our dishes down and sped off to the next table without checking if we needed flatware, etc. No coffee was offered when the dessert landed on our table - we had to flag down the server to ask for some. It took two requests to get the check. Lunch took 2 hours. The space is striking but odd. I won't be back.
- Sad and DissapointedOpenTable Diner Since 2010VIPDined on 7/22/2014Having dined at Harlow in february, I was truly surprised at how quickly this restaurAnt has gone down. The service including the bar area is so slow.....the food was mediocre not at all like I remembered. on my first visit I couldn't stop raving about the place and food now it is a different story.Special Features:
- Bad experienceNeighborhoodgemVIPDined on 7/15/2014I took my customers out of town for dinner. Big disappointment. The place was pretty empty. It took 15min to get a waiter to greet us and take our drinks order. Another 15min to receive them! Again, the place was pretty empty. We were 6 ladies, out of 6, we were able to order only 1 dish of our choice, the rest were not Avialable. I was shocked when I received my Japanese scallops appetizer- scallops were missing, only radish and cucumbers. I asked the waiter, he said, Japanese scallops are really really small, and usually the chef puts only 2 of them.This time he didn't put them at all! Overall, it's beautiful place. Coming for Mac&Cheese w/lobster and drink at the bar. The rest- it's not worth it. Overpriced not up to the standards.Special Features:
- Fantastic fish cooked and crudocb2000Dined on 7/12/2014The chef at Harlow is on his A game. Had another great meal there this weekend. Awesome. Also, one of the servers knew the history of the building when I asked, very interesting. Its a beautiful spaceSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent FoodDeborahDined on 7/11/2014Lunch was very quiet. Food was excellent. We enjoyed a long afternoon lunch and drinks.Special Features:
- Great ExperiencekadargoDined on 7/2/2014We chose Harlow for our 15th wedding anniversary dinner. Though my wife wanted to eat here, I'm not really a foodie - but - by the time our food arrived I was very pleased that we'd come to Harlow. Our waiter was great (took the time to 'get-to-know' us and talk with us about our choices) and the everything came (drinks, apps, ...) at a good pace. I was really impressed with the quality/taste of our food and the mood/feel/atmosphere of the restaurant was very good (cool history to the building too). This was our first trip to NYC - and though more than I'd like to spend - it was worth it.Special Features:
- Enjoyed Lunch On A Summer TuesdayStrategist4FoodVIPDined on 6/24/2014Enjoyed a client lunch and was pleasantly surprised with the food, atmosphere and service.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Please put A Harlow in BKLYN!NYCJSGVIPDined on 5/16/2014So that I can get that cauliflower at the drop of a hat! Amazing. Halibut taco sneed to be a staple on the Sag Harbor menu.Special Features:
- amazing!iheartfoodDined on 5/12/2014Everything was done to perfection! Grilled octopus is a must try, and so is the steak...and so was the lobster mac and cheese. All the items that we ordered were so delicious, I honestly couldn't pick a favorite. The wait staff was incredibly attentive. This place goes straight to the top of my list of great restaurants.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- great from start to finish8wellDined on 5/12/2014Their bread is fabulous, the wine list extensive, halibut a tad salty, but to be expected with a Miso glaze. Seafood stew was the best I've ever had- couldn't stop sopping up that sauce with their fab bread! And dessert... I'm a creme brulee expert so when I saw Pina Colada creme brulee I had to try it. Unique and Awesome. A really great experience- as long as you don't have anything important to say because it's LOUD in there!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good foodLevny4Dined on 5/9/2014I have no complaints food was good but service should be improveSpecial Features:
- AwfulBladeVIPDined on 5/2/2014We had lunch here today. The food was awful . Little choice, cold, poorly prepared, etc. Avoid for lunch --really bad!
- ExcellentSuzyDined on 4/26/2014Every item was absolutely perfect from the spicy octopus to the fabulous deserts - and everything in between!Special Features:
- The bees knees.MesrickDined on 4/26/2014Been wanting to use that phrase and finally have a great reason to. Bar has an amazing selection of spirits although they had me as soon as they said hangar one. Good was astoundingly delicious. I literally finished every thing I order. Strozzapreti is something you need to order. The halibut was the best I've ever had anywhere and I've lived in Japan (the capital of the seafood world). Sea scallops were good as was the baby octopus. The pistachio gelato is amazing and I don't even like gelato or pistachios. Important note that if you get the churros the chocolate is pure chocolate liqueur. My girl friend and will be back most certainly once we feel like dropping a couple hundred bucks on dinner again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great AmbienceOpenTable Diner Since 2009VIPDined on 4/26/2014Definitely check it out, especially for the ambience. Great bar, décor. Food is better than average, but not the best. Service was great.

No major new construction is underway on campus this summer, but more than 30 smaller projects worth $19.2 million are already started or planned, according to Jim Cahill, director of Facilities Planning.
The Pioneer Valley Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics Regional Network (STEMNET) has received a $10,000 state planning grant to fund development of a regional network to help teaching and learning science and mathematics in Western Massachusetts. The initiative is also aimed at improving regional economic development.
After 30 years at 505 East Pleasant St. on the eastern edge of the campus, the University of Massachusetts Press is moving this week to the East Experiment Station at 671 North Pleasant St., near Worcester Dining Commons.
The Congressional Budget Office reports that allowing same-sex couples to marry would have a positive impact on the federal budget, producing a savings of nearly $1 billion per year, says M.V. Lee Badgett, associate professor of Economics. The CBO report confirms recent findings from state-level studies conducted by the Institute for Gay and Lesbian Strategic Studies (IGLSS), which is affiliated with UMass Amherst, and the Williams Project at UCLA Law School, Badgett says.
George M. Sweeney of Colrain will give a talk on blacksmithing, being a colonial recreator, early Native American artifacts, and custom-made knives, on Thursday, June 24 at 1 p.m. in Special Collections & Archives on the 25th floor of the Du Bois Library.
A complementary exhibit of antique trade knives, tribal war clubs, leather sheaths, and related items can be seen in the main floor exhibit cases of the Library through July 14.
The University of Massachusetts Press and the Master of Fine Arts Program for Writers and Poets are sponsoring a new prize intended to honor an outstanding work of literary fiction. The Juniper Prize for Fiction will include a cash award of $1,500 and publication by the UMass Press.
Three Amherst campus projects this week received $425,000 in grants from President Jack M. Wilson as part of an effort to spur research and innovation across the five-campus system.
A $22.5 billion state budget that includes $392.5 million for the UMass system gained final legislative approval on June 16. The spending plan covers fiscal year 2005, which begins July 1.
Two students have been awarded Fulbright grants to study abroad in the coming academic year. Caitlin Boon, a graduate student in the Food Science Department, and Kasim Te, a senior graduating summa cum laude with departmental honors in Chinese language and literature, will begin their studies overseas this fall.
The University system is level-funded at $337.8 million under a compromise fiscal 2005 state budget package filed this week by a House-Senate conference committee. The $22.5 billion spending plan must still be approved by both legislative chambers before the bill is sent to Gov. Mitt Romney.

We've already seen that a horse and a goat can make an entertaining pair, but believe it or not, an equine/caprine friendship can be inspiring, too. When Charlie the horse, a 40-year-old rescue case, went blind in both eyes, his owner thought the humane thing to do would be to put him down. That's when Jack, the old billy goat, stepped in. Jack paired up with Charlie, leading him through the wooded pastures, to the best grazing spots and back again, and even rescuing him once when he became trapped by fallen trees.
This segment from the acclaimed PBS program Nature showcases the unusual, but touching friendship between these two aging animals in the twilight of their lives. Yeah, you'll probably want the tissues handy for this one.

Sweet, sad and so touching. Goats are wonderful animals. They are very intelligent and make great pets. It doesn't surprise me that Jack the goat was a loyal friend for 16 years, nor that Jack fell into rapid decline after Charlie was gone. His "job" is finished now, and he is probably anxious to meet up with Charlie on the other side of the bridge. Thank you for sharing such a heartwarming story.
Sylvia International
Such a touching story....just shows us once more that animals do have real feelings and can empathize with each other no matter what species they belong to.
Cheryl Grandview, TX
How touching, thanks for sharing this remarkable story.
Lynn Poway, CA
Compassion - Yes, animals can teach us SO much! Thank you for sharing this beautiful story of compassionate friendship. As humans we have the opportunity to learn from our four-legged friends - if only we will allow ourselves to realize the vast wealth of goodness here and take heart.

So in black Riders it talks about "campaign mode". In the booklet it talks about all "18" scenarios form the 6 expansions.... Is the Hobbit Expansions considered part of the Saga? Are we looking at 3 more expansions or 5 more... and if ti dose include the hobbit.. are there new campaign cards for it.. and do the "treasures" and all that carry on like boons and stuff?

They are talking about 5 new ones that cover Lord of the Rings. The Hobbit expansions are not related in any way. Try reading the booklet next time.

text: Print article Send a Tip Few African Americans Enrolling in Covered California by John Sexton 27 Mar 2014 post a comment African Americans are not signing up for insurance under Covered California at anywhere near their percentage of the population. With this year's enrollment deadline just around the corner, time to fix the problem is short. African Americans make up about 7 percent of California's population but just 3 percent of Covered CA enrollees. But the situation is actually worse than that because African Americans make up 17 percent of the state's uninsured population, the very people Obamacare was supposed to attract. Covered CA has previously been criticized for low enrollment among Latinos. The Latino population makes up about 46 percent of the subsidy-eligible uninsured but as of January they made up only about 20 percent of enrollees. Enrollment among Latinos has picked up somewhat since then. Carla Singleton, who is working on outreach in LA, tells the LA Times "From Covered California all the way down, there just hasn't been a lot of outreach." She suggests that, perhaps, the state's focus on closing the gap with Latinos may have left other minority groups to fall through the cracks. California is following the federal government's lead and has announced that anyone who starts an application for insurance before the official deadline next Monday will have until April 15th to complete it. In effect, a two week extension to apply.

Router Security Mode for multiple units
I have three (3) wireless modems with two setup as extenders. The primary, WRT600N, and one extender are dual band. The second, E3000,dual band is setup as a Repeater Bridge. The third unit, WN2000RPT, is just a single band extender. The purpose was to have continuous wireless through out the house because it was not working with only one unit. I now have the three units setup with their own SSID and Security Mode.
The Security Mode for all three is WPA2 Personal; the WPA Algorithms are all AES; the WPA Shared Key are all different for each modems band. Therefore when using wireless, you need to select which one you want. My intent was to only have two and those being a choice for the dual band units.
They are all setup and are working but I do not have a continuous wireless signal. As you travel through the house you need to change to another modem with each having its own SSID and a separate security code.
Should there only be one SSID for each band on all modems?
Should each modem be set to the same security mode for each band?
Or, what needs to be done to make this work?
Both Linksys modems are on DD-WRT software.

Thanks for the reply and the reference.
So it looks like I need to have one SSID and the same security mode in each unit.
I read that page and noticed that the following question was not asked:
Is the "Printed "DCHP" a typo and it should be DHCP, or if DCHP is correct, where do you find it?
Also, in my Linksys, I have a SPI firewall enabled, but where do I find the NAT firewall option so this can be enabled also?
|My System Specs

it is a typo--it should be DHCP.
Linksys firewall IS the NAT firewall

Thanks, just wanted to be sure

Finished the job just now. All units are on the same security mode and the single through out the house is great. Never noticed that the modes needed to be the same where I had separate ones for each modem. Now there is two for the dual modems and a ext for the extender.
Thank you again!

Well it seem to work fine at the start and now I am in trouble.
I admit I had a slight problem in adapting the instructions to apply to the Linksys routers. This issue may be the source of my problems which are :
1. From my laptop attached to the E3000, known as the switch, I can not get into 192.168.1.235 on wireless or wired. I can get to 192.168.1.1 which is my primary router both ways and from either router. I have reset the switch and tried again, but still have the problem after I make the changes.
My numbers start at 192.168.1.100 and I have allowed for a maximum of 10 units.
MyLanViewer program does show all the parts but not the E3000
2. The "switch" was recognized by the "primary" when connected together but not when wireless. The Network icon in Windows Explorer for both machines only shows its computer, a router, and the network printer. The primary also shows the Netgear repeater. When the DHCP is off on the "switch", it gets its IP address from the "primary. From the above MyLanViewer, I was able to PING the Acer5620, the "switch" even though I can not see it. what then becomes the IP address for the "switch"?.
3. What really causes me to be concerned is that the Network and Sharing Center shows to many Networks. My laptop has a Atheros AR5007EG built-in network adapter and I use the Linksys WUSBN for wireless N. With this combination I have the following:
Wireless Network - MYSSID- Shared for the Atheros
Wireless Network -Connection 4 - MYSSID 3- for the WUSB
Wireless Network for 5 GHz Connection - SSIDMY
Wireless Network Connection 8 -Disabled - Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter 3
and variations which indicate Connections upto number 9.
I have only tired to maintain a connection for both 2.4 and 5 only but I get these variations. I did turn off the DHCP and the DHCP server on the switch; SSID, and security code is the same as the primary.
When connecting to the internet with the switch wired, there is not a connection. There is a connection to the internet wirelessly. The adapter settings show all bars green in either case, but there is either a slow connection or none on the laptop when next to the "switch". The speed of the internet increases greatly when it is relocated to either next to the "primary" or the 'repeater'.
I have tried and failed to get this to work.........any suggestions would be appreciated.

Shayne Graham Not Concerned About Anything But His Next Kick
By ZAC BOYER | firstname.lastname@example.com
ASHBURN – Shayne Graham has the third-highest percentage of made field goals in the history of the NFL, so a few misses here and there, especially at practice, aren't about to get the former Virginia Tech standout all worked up.
Graham, brought in by the Redskins last week to challenge incumbent Graham Gano for kicking duties, didn't have the best day Monday as the team began its kicking competition. Though both Graham and Gano had no trouble making kicks from the 20- and 30-yard lines with a tee – distances of approximately 37 and 47 yards – it was a different story when Nick Sundberg was snapping to punter Sav Rocca, the holder.
Gano made five of his six kicks, then went 2-for-3 during the organized scrimmage. Graham, on the other hand, made only two of the six kicks on the side field and made only one of three during the scrimmage.
"Part of it is I've got to get my rhythm," Graham said. "I'm unhappy with missing a kick, but the last chance I had to go out and hit a long one, I hit it about as well as I've ever hit a ball, so that's really all I could hope to do is get the opportunity to make up for that."
Graham has made 85.95 percent of his field goals over a 10-year career, including a perfect 12-for-12 – and 2-for-2 in the postseason – last year for New England. He's made over 80 percent of his attempts in all but three seasons.
"That's why, when I miss one in practice, or I miss one in a game, I know I'm going to get more opportunities and I'm going to capitalize," Graham said. "I'm not going to dwell over those and I'm not going to get upset and think, 'Wow, I just missed that kick really bad. I suck.' No, I know I'm a good kicker. I may have just missed that, but wait 'til you see my next three. That's how I feel about that. Even no matter what happens on any kick, every time I line up, I'm just thinking about not thinking, really. It's an unconscious muscle memory-type action that I perform."
Gano, meanwhile, was 28-for-39 in his second season, necessitating the challenge. Graham said the two aren't trying to take it personally – coincidentally, they worked out together during the summer, before Graham signed with the Redskins – and want each other to do well.
Coach Mike Shanahan said pressure situations, such as the end of practice when each kicker was told the field goal was to win the game, will go a long way in evaluating their abilities.
"We'll do that a number of times before we have to make our cuts, so we have to put them in pressure situations to see how each guy reacts," Shanahan said.
Graham is confident, and constantly worrying about each miss is not something he plans to do.
"Really, I'm just thinking about my next practice here, my next kick here," he said.

Stay up-to-date with KAKE News:
WICHITA, Kan.-- At any given time today, there have been 50 City of Wichita trucks helping to manage the snow that has accumulated on the main streets of Wichita.
"We've got 100 people operating those 50 pieces of equipment. We'll continue with emergency snow and ice operations until the situation has abated and we get the streets cleared," said Joe Pajor, Wichita Public Works and Utilities deputy director.
The City is responsible for maintaining 1,500 lane miles of Snow Emergency Routes, which are designated by ordinance. There is a total of 5,000 lane miles of paved city streets, which means residential streets will not be plowed by the City.
"It may be difficult to tell that streets have been plowed and it does take us, with the forces we have, about 24 hours to completely plow one time around all the Snow Emergency Routes," said Pajor.
Brooks Landfill closed at noon today due to problems with visibility and wind blowing waste. They are expected to open tomorrow.

UAW Local 652 represents workers at Android Industries, the General Motors Cadillac Plant, JCIM, and Ryder.

Phone (517) 372-7581
$174 million for local stamping plant
I don't know where summer went, but it's time for the kids to go back to school and thoughts of fall activities start.
I want to thank all our members who got out and voted in the primary election. Our CAP-endorsed candidates fared well, but the job is not done until the November election is done! Please go to the Lansing Labor News website, lansinglabornews.org, to make sure you know the endorsed candidates. The screening process takes into account all the concerns working people have.
I also want to thank each and every one of our members over the announcement of GM's decision to invest $174 million in the Lansing Grand River stamping facility. The following are comments from Erin Davis of GM Lansing Operations Communications:
General Motors will start construction of a $174-million stamping facility that will create or retain about 145
jobs. The new facility, part of the company's Lansing Grand River Assembly Plant, will produce stamping components for the Cadillac ATS and Cadillac CTS family of vehicles and a future product.
"Lansing Grand River Assembly is known for the high quality of its work and the flexible manufacturing that has been a trademark since it opened," said GM North America Manufacturing Manager Christine Sitek. "Today's announcement demonstrates GM's commitment to strengthening key plant capabilities related to quality and efficiency."
The new facility, which comes on line in 2016, will save about $14 million a year in logistics costs tied to material handling. Built in 2001, Lansing Grand River is GM's second-newest U.S. assembly plant and the manufacturing home of the Cadillac ATS, CTS and the CTS V-series performance versions. Earlier this year, Motor Trend magazine recognized the all-new 2014 Cadillac CTS sedan with its Car of the Year award.
"This major investment is a vote of confidence in the hard-working membership of UAW Local 652," said UAW Vice President Cindy Estrada, who directs the union's General Motors Department. "We're proud of the role we played in helping rebuild Michigan's economy through collective bargaining and negotiations for investment and jobs in our UAW-represented plants."
"I think I can speak for all of the UAW members at General Motors' Lansing Grand River plant when I say we are thrilled to have this additional investment in the plant and the jobs it will create in the community," said UAW Region 1D Director Gerald Kariem.
Including this latest announcement, GM has announced Lansing facility investments of more than $530 million since 2009.
• $190 million for the addition of the Cadillac ATS and 600 jobs
• $37 million at Lansing Delta Township Assembly plant for tooling and equipment to enhance the plant's manufacturing capabilities
• $88 million for the all-new 2014 Cadillac CTS sedan
• Announced Lansing Grand River would produce the next-generation Camaro
• $44.5 million and 200 jobs for a new logistics optimization center at LGR
Since 2009, GM has announced nearly $11 billion of investment in U.S. facilities, including $777 million so far this year.
"Once again, our hometown car company is hitting it out of the park with a massive new investment at Lansing Grand River," said Lansing Mayor Virg Bernero. "I'm deeply grateful to General Motors for making the Lansing region a centerpiece of its global manufacturing strategy. Its confidence in our world-class UAW workforce and strong partnership with local government will continue to deliver jobs and prosperity in Lansing for decades to come."
In Other News
Region 1D Director Gerald Kariem recently visited the Lansing area GM plants of Locals 602 and 652. I would like to thank him for coming to visit our membership.

Veterans notes
I want to share with you these veterans' notes from our Local 652 Veterans Committee Chair Michael Melfi. Our thanks to Michael for all his hard work and to everyone on our Veterans Committee for their efforts on behalf of veterans.
As we enter into summer, (we hope it will warm our chilled bones of this past winter), Region 1-C Veterans Association has begun their busy schedule, starting with the Region's Color Guard presenting the Colors at the A. Philip Randolph Annual Luncheon on April 26 at the Kellogg Center at MSU.
At their second quarter meeting at the VFW Home for Children on May 6, the Veterans presented the Home with a check in the amount of $2,500, which was accompanied with a check for $500 from the UAW Local 652 Veterans Committee.
Normally we would donate bicycles, however the past two years it was decided to contribute to their wish-list which you can review on the Amazon site: go to "Find a Wish List" and type in VFW National Home for Children. Gifts-in-kind are welcome at the National Home. The web site has the most current list of items they can use. And their Santa Shop program is always accepting donations for use at Christmas time. We encourage you to make your generous donation toward one of the many items that the families are in need.
May also is the month for Lansing's Volunteers of America 11th Annual Homeless Veterans Stand-Down on May 21. Veterans from UAW Locals 425, Jackson; 602, 652, 724, 4911, Lansing; and 659, 598 in Flint; and several other UAW Locals, not only donated their own personal time, (vacation, or leave w/o pay), but those Locals make monetary contributions to help offset the cost of sponsoring that event.
The birth of a movement?
On July 10th the UAW chartered Local 42 in Chattanooga, a members-only union to represent the workers of VW. While not a completely new strategy, the UAW has never before embraced the idea Unlike a traditional union, a members-only union is voluntary and represents only the workers who choose to join. A company has no legal obligation under the National Labor Relations Act to negotiate with a union of this type; however, the UAW and Volkswagen have come to a "consensus" that the company will recognize Local 42 once it has signed up a "meaningful portion" of the workers. With a majority, Volkswagen may choose to recognize the union as the exclusive bargaining representative of the entire worksite, effectively bypassing the need for another NLRB election.
Of course, the anti-union forces are already crying foul, commenting that their hard-earned victory in the last election could be thrown out on a technicality. But I find it encouraging that a strategy like this is being attempted. We have been at a disadvantage for too long in the South and this type of effort could be a game changer!
If the UAW can be accepted by enough workers voluntarily, it gives us a greater chance to win all their hearts and minds, to prove the worth of collective bargaining.
Under this course of action employees can take the chance on collective bargaining without the stigma of the old style union, which in the South is reviled by a good portion of the populace. There, a union security clause is seen as a detriment, not an advantage.
As of this writing, more than 670 employees have voluntarily signed up for membership in Local 42. That number is very significant. If those same 670 people had voted yes in the NLRB election it would have constituted a majority and the Volkswagen plant would today be a UAW-represented plant.
While the outcome of the efforts in Chattanooga are not clear, it is a positive step. Will it work? Maybe, maybe not, but the thing to take away from it all is that the effort was made.
We're not sitting on our hands waiting for the cards to fall. We're taking the fight to the enemy and ultimately, that's all we can ask.
If you would like more information, please google "The New Volkswagen Model: Minority Unionism" or visit www.uaw.org or www.labornotes.org.
As election time comes near, once again I write today to warn against believing the smears and lies put forward by the PAC's and super-PAC's supported by the corporations and the rich; especially that two-headed monster of anti-worker evil, the Koch brothers. In the last election cycle, 2012, the Koch brothers spent an estimated $400 million on hardcore right-wing initiatives and candidates. Now they are spending large amounts to get the outcome they want in this year's elections in Michigan. They support Terry Lynn Land for Senate and Rick Snyder for Governor. Here are a few things you should know about the Koch brothers.
The vast fortune they use to corrupt the political process is largely based on a massive network of oil and gas pipelines, and was largely inherited from their father Fred Koch who made his fortune building pipelines for the Soviet despot Joseph Stalin. Fred Koch was also a supporter of racial segregation and groups like the John Birch society.
Following that lead the brothers have invested millions in more than 85 right-wing organizations. Most prominent of these is Americans for Prosperity, their PAC that invests heavily in the Tea Party candidates and has close ties to, among others, Supreme Court Justices Anton Scalia and Clarence Thomas, who the Koch's brought in as speakers for a group of industrialists shortly before the infamous Citizens United decision.
Among the things that the Koch brothers vehemently oppose and spend their vast fortune to eradicate are the following: minimum wage laws, labor unions, public education, and Social
Security. In other words, all of the reforms that helped to create a large and vibrant middle class are on the chopping block if these brothers get their way.
You may ask yourself, how did our society evolve to a point where any of this is allowed to happen? And how can we stop it?
Well, this isn't a new situation. In fact it was just these sorts of abuses by the wealthy industrialists at the turn of the 20th century that the Progressives and President Theodore Roosevelt fought against. During his presidency the robber barons of the oil, steel, and railroad industries were incrementally pushed back from total and limitless control of our institutions.
Unfortunately, within months of Roosevelt leaving office, moneyed interests began the push to regain their hold on government. By the 1920's they were once again in the driver's seat. Only the Great Depression and Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal of the 1930's
and 40's chiseled away some of this power.
In the decades since, the rich and their corporations have once again gotten astride our institutions and begun to steer them in directions conducive to them and not the average citizen. Why do we have to re-fight this battle again and again? Because the wealthy are relentless and too often the working class are lulled into a sense of powerlessness or apathy; and even more frightening is the ability through the media for the rich to convince the workers of this country that groups like Americans for Prosperity and the Koch brothers are looking out for them.
We must remember that our government is supposed to be for the people and by the people, not a government for the corporation and by the corporation or for the rich, by the rich.
If we allow outside groups funded by the likes of the Koch brothers to influence our elections, a day rapidly approaches where we the working people will have no voice at all. On Election Day, remember to support those who support the workers of this state and not those who support the corporations of this country.

Boater dead after jumping into lake after dog
Updated On: May 26 2014 12:42:12 PM EDT
Authorities say a man is dead after jumping from a boat into a Tampa Bay-area lake to save a dog that had jumped overboard.
The Pinellas County Sheriff's Office says the dog was returned safely Saturday to the pontoon boat on Lake Tarpon, but the 70-year-old man disappeared underwater.
The man's body was found Sunday morning. The sheriff's office identified him as John Patti of Palm Harbor.
Meanwhile, the Coast Guard says it worked with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission to make several rescues Saturday in Jacksonville waterways. Among those needing rescue were a two men and a 10-year-old boy whose boat became stuck on top of a jetty.
The Coast Guard says several boaters were taken into custody Saturday for operating their vessels while intoxicated.

A Physician Orders for Life Sustaining Treatment (POLST) form is a document created by you and your doctor that informs emergency care providers what kinds of treatments you want (and don't want) in a medical emergency. POLST forms are like Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) orders in that they 1) must be signed by a doctor and, 2) instruct emergency medical whether to administer cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). However, POLST forms cover many additional types of medical interventions, such as intubation, antibiotic use, and feeding tubes.
POLST forms are available in more than half of the states in the U.S. and they go by various names – MOLST, POST, COLST, TPOPP, LaPOST, etc. Learn more about the POLST form in your state in the articles below.

ALVA, Fla. - Deputies arrested Candice Miller only after they raided the wrong house. Investigators busted into the neighbors' house suspecting they were sending child porn. Turns out Miller's neighbors didn't secure their wireless Internet connection.
Ted Davis says he was thrown to the ground and had his home searched by deputies Tuesday morning. They were looking for his neighbor - Candice Miller.
Davis says Miller was stealing Davis' unsecured Internet connection which deputies say she used to send pornographic images of herself with her two children. Computer experts say this could have easily been avoided.
Frank Pieczatkiewicz from Computer Help Southwest Florida says, "What you want to do is secure it. The router has the ability to add an encryption key that is a series of numbers or letters that only you would know because it's programmed into your router then you would make the connection with your laptop. Your equipment, your laptop, would remember that."
He also says when people steal your Internet, it makes it slower and opens up your personal files to whoever happens to be near.
