Check the 5 metre cable. For testing purpose remove the 5 metre cable and connect directly and move close to your wireless router.

i forgot to mention this, and yes it is working when i put the origional cable that came with the card which works without any problem, However i am sure there is no problem with 5 meter cable because i tested on my usb camera and works perfectly and also works with my wireles card but the problem as i mentioned before is after some time (5-10 minutes) it becomes disabled , the card is still connected to the computer and i can see it in device manager but i cannot access the network unless i disconnect the cable and reconnect and after 5 minutes same thing happens again , but in my mind i believe there is a problem with the power settings which are all default in device manager and i already tried powered usb hub still no luck ,so i don't really know what to do next i hope i could get some help |

Open Device Manager, Select the ALFA (AWUS036H) Wireless USB Adapter (or whatever name you see for this adapter like Realtek or something), right click on it and select Properties. Go to Power Management tab and remove the tick mark (if there is a tick mark) on "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power", Press OK button and close the dialog box. Reboot and check.
If this procedure works for you then repeat the above procedure for the remaining operating systems also. Please post your findings later. |

You will need to buy a powered (repeater) USB cable. A USB cable over 10 feet is not recommended without a repeater.

and you are totally correct over 5 meter requires a repeater. |

Locker room bullying leads NFL player to walk out
11/6/2013, 10:57 a.m.
By Matt Hoenig
Multiple media reports suggest that racially charged and abusive text and voice messages sent to a teammate are the reason that an NFL player has been suspended.
Richie Incognito, an offensive lineman for the Miami Dolphins, was suspended indefinitely by the team on Sunday following an investigation of bullying and abuse against Jonathan Martin, who walked off the team last week. Incognito and Martin are not only teammates, but they play beside one another; Martin was Miami's starting left tackle (the outside position on the offensive line) while Incognito was the starting left guard.
ESPN, FOX Sports and CBS Sports have each reported forms of graphic, vulgar harassment and abuse that Martin was allegedly subjected to by Incognito. The reported incidents are not isolated and have gone on since Martin was drafted in the second round of the 2012 draft.
ESPN reports that Incognito, a nine-year veteran, left Martin a voicemail in April that included calling him the N-word (Martin is biracial) and threatening to defecate in his mouth. "Hey, wassup, you half-n—– piece of s—. I saw you on Twitter, you been training 10 weeks. [I want to] s— in your f—— mouth. [I'm going to] slap your f—— mouth. [I'm going to] slap your real mother across the face [laughter]. F— you, you're still a rookie. I'll kill you." Both the team and the NFL league offices have reportedly heard the tape and have copies of it.
CBS Sports reports that Incognito also used the slur again in text messages which Martin has shared with his parents. Those messages also reportedly included threats to harm Martin's family. According to FOX Sports, Martin is in California, undergoing therapy to deal with the emotional issues that have sidetracked his playing career.
Before the network's Monday Night Football telecast, ESPN's studio team of former players and coaches addressed the messages, the idea that NFL locker rooms are tough places that breed a culture of hate, and the ignorance of the Dolphins organization and players that could allow the behavior to continue.
"I think that Richie Incognito is a racist. I think he's bigoted. I think he's a bully. I think it's all wrapped into one package," former Denver Broncos' All-Pro linebacker Tom Jackson said. "I don't want people to be under the perception that conduct in an NFL locker, that we are not aware of what is societally OK and not OK. I've heard a lot of that today. 'Well, the locker room is a place where people are very different.' They're not this different.
"If this kid were to decide that he wasn't going to come back and play, somebody will have to answer for that, in terms of liability. This is off the charts."
Former wide receiver Keyshawn Johnson, who retired after the 2006 season, was also alarmed about the reaction of Martin's Dolphins teammates. "There is no place any locker room, any work environment, for this type of conduct." Johnson said. "When you're a rookie in this league, you come into the league, you may have to carry the pads, you may buy some food or take a guy's car out to get washed, get tied up to a goalpost, get into the ice tub … that's just part of that. But everything else that's going on? That's not hazing, that's bullying. And Tommy's right, he is a racist. Period. There's no other way around it."

We want to get a tanning ledge but want some ideas. We want it for the kids to play on. Not sure if it should be right at the enterance for the pool in the shallow end, off to the side or a "bump out" on the side. Any pics and tips are appreciated! Thanks! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Hi, here's ours. Something to consider: you'll probably have your pool a lot longer than you'll want the ledge. We put one in b/c we wanted a spot for our then 4 year old to play, 2 summers later, we're already wishing we had that space for swimming! Were we to do it aagain, we'd probably do a "bump out". Our pool is small-ish, so that likely has something to with it, but just my 2 cents. Good luck with your planning! |
Thank you! I was wondering that. We have two very young kids but I can't decide. Or would I put a chair in there and use it? I'm not sure. Beautiful pool! |
Our kids are grown and no grandchildren as of yet but we wanted one for the future! We didn't want to take up swim space so we did a "bump out" as you called it. |

Here is a pic of my tanning ledge�ok, ok, so it isnt exactly what you are looking for, but my two cents. Water is about 24" deep and pretty much ideal for any kid under age 5 because they can stand in there and play. My nephew is 5, and he is just barely tall enough to stand in the 3' deep end of my parents pool. Our little boy absolutely loves our mini-pool because he can run around. The second best thing is that I stick those plastic adirondack chairs in there, and it is absolutely perfect. Water depth hits dead on the arms of the chairs, so it is ideal for sitting and having a drink and a nice place to put it, while watching the kiddies run around. When our kids are old enough and we put in a big pool, I absolutely will have a similar space. |
Thanks everyone! We ended up not getting it. It was smaller than we thought when we laid it out but it still took up a good part of our shallow end. Cabogirl-That is a lot of retaining wall! We are facing a similar challenge but not quite as much as yours. It is so insanely expensive to retain this hill! |

The Oleana Foundation
Welcome to The Oleana Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to bringing back affordability to higher education. Our plan is simple: creating a new, private, faculty-residential liberal arts college that will provide students with the residential college experience for half the cost of the current public system. Rather than hopping aboard the "on-line" education bandwagon, which reduces quality but has failed to significantly lower costs, the Oleana Foundation seeks a dramatic alternative: to restore the residential liberal arts college experience without its exorbitant price tag. No one, in fact, doubts the superiority of the residential college experience over on-line learning, but higher education has simply become unaffordable for too many people. The cost of higher-education is not just unaffordable for individual students, it has also become unsustainable for state budgets.
The Oleana Foundation's ability to provide a critically-based education for less than the cost of existing public colleges is based on a comprehensive and dramatic plan to restructure the delivery of service. Our plan includes:
- Procuring the campus at minimal cost as part of a broader economic renewal project
- Using the campus rehabilitation process to implement sustainability into every facet of the college: energy consumption and renewable energy sources, waste management, water use and reuse, food procurement, and landscaping.
- Employing a residential faculty and using faculty housing as part of the overall compensation package to reduce salaries.
- Drastically streamlining the administration and the staffing of the college, with a goal of capping these numbers at 1/3 the size of the faculty and restricting compensation of senior administrators to the same levels as faculty.
- Reducing and reforming academic disciplinarity to deliver critical education developmentally, coherently, and more efficiently--allowing us to provide a bachelor's degree in 3 years.
- Eliminating nonessential services and amenities that are peripheral to the mission of the college, such as multi-million dollar spa-styled sports facilities, high-rise style and apartment-type housing, and inter-Varsity athletic teams.
- Creating collaborative relationships with the local municipality as a means of creating economies of scale in day-to-day operations (i.e. library, auditorium, sports facilities)
- Establishing an Academic Village-style senior housing community of 100-120 units as part of the campus to create a tax base for the local municipality and to create a larger footprint for renewable energy technologies.
Currently, higher education is too invested in the academic disciplines and too bureaucratic to achieve the kinds of changes necessary to drive down their spiraling costs. Moreover, because they are so expensive, colleges and universities must steer students into more vocational-style training so that graduates are better able in the short term to pay off their higher-education debts. Conversely, the college that the Oleana Foundation creates will begin with the fundamental premise that the corporate model of higher education is proving itself unsustainable--both for the consumer, and for the state governments which are forced to underwrite the public institutions. Instead, a communal model based on the principles of sustainability and affordability can realize levels of quality that are currently absent, while at the same time, reforming the way higher education works.
At the core of our educational vision are three fundamental principles: community, affordability, and sustainability. Adopting a communal model, we are committed to creating a faculty-residential college. All faculty will live on campus, participating in the life and upkeep of the community. The goal of a faculty-residential institution is to place students in close proximity to faculty, to provide faculty with a sustainable community, and to create learning environments outside the classroom that can model the ideal of "life-long learning".
Our vision of higher education in the 21st century would not be complete without extending the operations of the college into the community itself. With a projected enrollment goal of 1,000 residential students, sixty-five full-time residential faculty and 22 full-time residential staff, the college can function to both stabilize its surrounding location and act as an economic engine. Adhering to our principle of sustainability, the college will look to purchase as much food as possible from local growers, and purchase other goods and services locally.
In addition to its economic impact, the college that is created by the Oleana Foundation will be actively seeking to partner with the local municipality to create and assist in the operation of pilot schools from K-12. Moreover, with its dedicated three-week service learning term in December, the college will be looking to place 1,000 students into faculty-supervised volunteer service within the community. Students will then follow-up with their service for the remainder of the academic year. Lastly, the college will strive to operate as a cultural hub for the community: providing entertainment through the arts in a manner open to the public.
The Oleana Foundation seeks nothing less than to transform the way that higher education does business. By restoring the purpose of a Liberal Arts education, our curriculum focuses on developing the critical and analytical skills students will need to take their place as leaders in a dynamic and increasing global society. Our goal is to usher in a renaissance for Liberal Arts education: one that everyone can afford.

How do I report a 1-way between subjects ANOVA in APA style? Three or four things to report You will be reporting three or four things, depending on whether you find a significant result for your 1-Way Betwee Subjects ANOVA 1.
Introduction. Welcome to the Handbook of Biological Statistics!
This online textbook evolved from a set of notes for my Biological Data Analysis class at the University of Delaware. My main goal in that class is to teach biology students how to choose the appropriate statistical test for a particular experiment, then apply that test and interpret the results. I spend relatively little time on the mathematical basis of the tests; for most biologists, statistics is just a useful tool, like a microscope, and knowing the detailed mathematical basis of a statistical test is as unimportant to most biologists as knowing which kinds of glass were used to make a microscope lens.
Statistics Glossary: L. Lack of Fit.
For certain designs with replicates at the levels of the predictor variables, the residual sum of squares can be further partitioned into meaningful parts which are relevant for testing hypotheses. Specifically, the residual sums of squares can be partitioned into lack-of-fit and pure-error components. This involves determining the part of the residual sum of squares that can be predicted by including additional terms for the predictor variables in the model (for example, higher-order polynomial or interaction terms), and the part of the residual sum of squares that cannot be predicted by any additional terms (i.e., the sum of squares for pure error).
Data transformations. Many biological variables do not meet the assumptions of parametric statistical tests: they are not normally distributed, the variances are not homogeneous, or both.
Using a parametric statistical test (such as an anova or linear regression) on such data may give a misleading result. In some cases, transforming the data will make it fit the assumptions better. To transform data, you perform a mathematical operation on each observation, then use these transformed numbers in your statistical test. For example, as shown in the first graph above, the abundance of the fish species Umbra pygmaea (Eastern mudminnow) in Maryland streams is non-normally distributed; there are a lot of streams with a small density of mudminnows, and a few streams with lots of them. Applying the log transformation makes the data more normal, as shown in the second graph.

An Leas-Chathaoirleach An Leas-Chathaoirleach An Leas-Chathaoirleach: I have received notice from Senator Brendan Ryan that on the motion of the Adjournment of the House today he proposes to raise the following matter: The need for the Minister for Social Welfare to discontinue the requirement that all travellers not living in permanent housing must sign on at labour exchanges at 11.30 a.m. on Thursdays. Mr. B. Ryan Mr. B. Ryan 1583 Mr. B. Ryan: Cuirim fáilte roimh an Aire. Tá brón orm nach é an tAire Leasa Shóisialaigh atá in ár dteannta anocht mar tá ceisteanna faoi leith le freagairt agus in ainneoin dea-thola an Aire atá in ár láthair, níl an taithí aige as an Roinn [1583] nó an t-údarás aige i gceannas ar an Roinn chun, b'fhéidir, ina ceisteanna nó an fhealsúnacht atá taobh thiar de chuid de na moltaí atá agam a phlé. Ach tá súil agam go mbeidh freagra de shaghas aige agus gur freagra ar a bhfuil á rá agam a thabharfaidh sé in ionad freagra ar a bhfuil an Roinn ag súil a déarfaidh mé. Ní thógfaidh mé morán ama an cheist seo a phlé ach tá sé tábhachtach. Ten years ago a most unfortunate decision was taken by the then Minister for Social Welfare. In order to dispose of a few red herrings to coin a phrase, that have been dragged across this issue, I know it was a member of the Labour Party who was Minister for Social Welfare in 1981 when the decision was taken. Successive Ministers for Social Welfare in Governments in which the Labour Party were not a part — I am not a member of the Labour Party — seem to feel that it is important to point this out to me whenever the issue comes up. I also know why it was said the regulations were introduced. I also know the procedures and requirements for signing on. The last occasion on which the extraordinary requirement that members of the travelling community must sign on at labour exchanges all round the country at 11.30 a.m. on Thursday mornings was raised, I was given a long account of the obligations under the Social Welfare Consolidation Act, 1981 that people must meet in order to qualify for unemployment assistance. About six lines in the Minister's reply were devoted to the issue. 1584 Since 1981 the travelling community's perception of itself has changed out of all recognition. There are within the travelling community a considerable number of people who are very assertive and proud of their existence as an ethnic minority with their own culture, lifestyle and, to a considerable degree, their own language. They are not just a raggle taggle collection of unfortunates who happen to be outside society. They are a most [1584] significant ethnic minority perhaps 20,000 people. That minority has increasingly sought not charity but rights for itself. It has sought the right not to be discriminated against, in particular, the right not to be stigmatised in any discriminatory way. In 1981 when this extraordinary requirement was introduced neither the travelling community nor those who attempted to look after their welfare had this sense of ethnic identity. I quote from column 791 of the Official Report of the Seanad, 22 October 1986. The then Minister of State, Deputy Pattison said: Following a review within my Department of the position it became apparent that there was a need for special signing arrangements for all claimants of no fixed abode which, of course, includes members of the travelling community in order to close off the possibility of such claimants signing on and receiving payments under two different names at two or more local offices in one week. Nobody ever produced evidence to support this. Nobody ever attempted to show the travelling community the basis on which they were being stigmatised as chronic dole fiddlers. A review was carried out in secret. Statistics were looked at in secret. Proposals and decisions were made in secret and at the end of the process, the result was made public. The situation now is that in every village, town and city where there is a labour exchange you can stand at 11.30 a.m. on Thursday and point out the travellers. This was done because somebody decided there was widespread abuse, even though there was no evidence to support that claim. A significant number of people have not been prosecuted. We do not know the basis for doing this, perhaps it was hearsay or prejudice, we do not know. 1585 The present Minister for Social Welfare attempted to defend the position as late as December. He said in what I can [1585] only describe as the wondrous style all Ministers have, and I quote from the debate of that day: There is no question of discrimination in having all people of no fixed abode sign at one time. I love that. Because he says there is no discrimination, therefore there is no discrimination. The Stormont regime of past years said there was no question of discrimination against Catholics because of their religion, it was because of their politics, lack of loyalty or whatever else. They said because we do not call it discrimination, it is not discrimination. That was not a monopoly of the Stormont Parliament; it happens in many places. The Minister took us away from the misnomer "persons of no fixed abode" because in 1990 he went on to say: Following a meeting between officials of my Department and the monitoring committee for travelling people, a review of the arrangements was carried out at two Dublin exchanges. The purpose was to identify settled travellers with permanent addresses with a view to integrating them into the normal signing arrangements. Following the examination of approximately 500 applications at the two exchanges, 67 people were identified as being settled travellers. 1586 It intrigues me that two different Ministers from two different Governments insisted that this was not discriminating against travellers. How did they suddenly identify 67 people as being of no fixed abode when they were living in settled accommodation? Clearly they did not qualify as being of no fixed abode. They identified them because they were culturally, racially and in terms of their family names and family associations members of the travelling community. They were made to sign on at 11.30 a.m. on Thursdays not because they were of no fixed abode, because manifestly they were not, but because they were [1586] members of an ethnic minority and that is nothing short of racist discrimination against an ethnic minority in this State. What we got out of that was that after ten years a Minister finally conceded by implication if not fact that this discrimination was directed against the travelling community. It was always obvious because the Department of Social Welfare will not give social welfare payments to one without an address. How can you be of no fixed abode and at the same time qualify for social welfare? If one has an address one cannot be of no fixed abode. We all know from dealing with homeless people that they were not subjected to this requirement. There was a flutter of words to cover up the fact that this was directed exclusively at the travelling community. The Minister unfortunately having showed a small moment of enlightenment in recognising the absurdity of settled travellers being treated as persons of no fixed abode, said that the Senator — that was me he was talking about — would be interested to hear that some of the travellers deemed as settled did not wish to change their signing arrangements as they regarded the Thursday morning gathering as something of a social occasion. I said, when the Minister said that and he got very cross with me, that it reminded me of statements made in South Africa by white South Africans to the effect that their black servants would not really like liberation but would prefer the old system in which they felt secure. Neither statement is right and both statements about different people of different cultural backgrounds are profoundly offensive. The Minister may think that it was a nice thing to say but it was profoundly patronising to the travelling community. 1587 Since then there has been a change. The rhetoric about travellers is now very different. As far as I recall, the Taoiseach was very eloquent about the rights of the travelling community during his address to the Fianna Fáil Árd Fheis. On his vision of the new and caring Ireland he [1587] was hoping to lead us into he elaborated at some length on the rights of travellers. He opened the new centre for the Dublin Travellers' Education and Development Group with some panache and I compliment him for it because those gestures are extremely important for the assertion of the right of this cultural minority to its own identity. The Minister for Social Welfare has also given considerable stature, support and financial assistance to the Dublin Travellers' Education and Development Group. I am aware of all that and for what has been done I have no reason to be other than complimentary, but little gestures like that, however significant, are no substitute for a deliberate policy of abolishing stigma and the knowledge that every community can pick out the travellers on a Thursday at 11.30 a.m. demolishes all the other good work. It puts travellers in a sub-group and places them under suspicion, when they are pointed out as a suspect group incapable of behaving like the rest of us and needing to be tied down and visibly profiled as a suspect group. How can you expect communities to accept as full participants people of whom the State says: "Look at them. They are the people we have to watch every week, otherwise they would fiddle the system". 1588 As I have said often, if we did this to people who were black, or members of the Jewish or the gay community this country would rise in outrage and the liberal media in Dublin would fulminate. If the Government of the United Kingdom said that because of the large influx of unemployed Irish people, many of whom are not in permanent accommodation, were going to require every Irish person in Britain to sign on at a labour exchange at 11.30 a.m. on a Thursday, who would be the quickest to rightly scream discrimination? The Irish Government would scream loud and long about discrimination against the Irish and stigmatisation of the Irish. I could write [1588] the script. They would say "We do not know the evidence, we have not seen the case, we do not know any of those things, but it is wrong". We do not know the evidence on which this measure was introduced, nor have we seen the case on which it was introduced. We only see the consequence, which is, a group of people paraded in front of the rest of the community en bloc at the same time all over the country while signing on. One could not stigmatise people more effectively by forcing them to wear a yellow star which would say "These are the outcasts, they are outside our society, you must be wary of them." When one considers the enormous prejudice prevailing already against the travelling community and their difficulty getting children into schools how can people accept travellers as neighbours when the State says they cannot be trusted? The implication is that they are up to fiddling and to theft. What will this measure do but compound the prejudice against them? We have had ten years of racist experiment drafted by a Minister of the Government other than this one. Therefore, the present Minister has no obligation to a measure which has been operated cruelly and dressed up for a long time in language that covered up its racist basis by talking about persons of no fixed abode, as a result of which travellers living in houses were told that, for the purposes of the Department of Social Welfare, they were persons of no fixed abode until, as the Minister said, some time in 1990 when they finally caught up on that particularly extreme form of discrimination. For the rest of the travelling community not in settled accommodation the situation continues. I put it to this Minister that it is time it ended. It is nothing less than institutionalised racial discrimination, stereotyping and stigmatisation; it is wrong and it should end. Minister of State at the Department of the Gaeltacht (Mr. Gallagher) Pat "the Cope" Gallagher 1589 Minister of State at the Department of the Gaeltacht (Mr. Gallagher): Ba mhaith [1589] liom leithscéal a ghabháil thar ceann an Aire Leasa Shóisialaigh, os rud é nach bhfuil sé ábhalta a bheith anseo anocht. D'iarr sé ormsa ionadaíocht a dhéanamh ar a shon. Ní masla é sin don Seanadóir Ryan ná don Teach. Is cinnte gur mhaith leis a bheith anseo chun freagra a thabhairt ar an gceist tábhachtach seo. Mr. B. Ryan Mr. B. Ryan Mr. B. Ryan: Glacaim leis sin. Mr. Gallagher Mr. Gallagher Mr. Gallagher: It is provided in the social welfare legislation that to be entitled to unemployment payments a person must be unemployed, available for and genuinely seeking work. Until recently the rules govening signing were related to the distance a person lived from the local office and could require attendance several times a week. The Minister has made significant improvements for clients in the signing arrangements. He has reduced signing frequency. Most claimants now only sign once a week and are paid in cash at the same time. The Department are currently examining, in conjunction with the development of alternative payment methods, the possibility of further reductions in signing frequency. The payment arrangements for those who do not have a fixed address as the Senator pointed out were introduced in 1981. There was clear evidence at that time that the practice of a sizeable number of claimants signing on and receiving payments under different names at two or more local offices in the one week was a significant and growing problem. It was decided to introduce special arrangements for claimants with no fixed address. The same arrangements apply in Northern Ireland where similar problems occurred. 1590 The Department of Social Welfare would be failing in their responsibilities if they did not ensure that measures were in operation to meet the special situation of claimants with no fixed address. Members of the travelling community who are settled have the same signing [1590] arrangements as other members of the settled community. Mr. B. Ryan Mr. B. Ryan Mr. B. Ryan: Since last year. Mr. Gallagher Mr. Gallagher Mr. Gallagher: Last year, following a meeting between officials of the Department and the Monitoring Committee for Travelling People, a review of the arrangements was carried out at two Dublin exchanges. The purpose of the review was to identify settled travellers with permanent addresses with a view to extending the usual signing arrangements to them. Arising from this review new signing arrangements were introduced for, as Senator Ryan mentioned, some 67 settled travellers. Some members of the travelling community who had settled did not wish to change their signing on arrangements; others did not wish to change as they had arrangements made for the payment of bills, such as rent to coincide with their unemployment payment day. I can assure Senator Ryan who has a very special interest in this debate that there is no question of the Minister for Social Welfare or the Government trying to discriminate against or stigmatise the travelling people as the ethnic minority he referred to. I want to assure the Senator on behalf of the Minister for Social Welfare that the Minister is reviewing signing on arrangements generally and will give particular consideration to the requirements of members of the travelling community. I will bring to the attention of the Minister the various points raised by the Senator and, again, I want to assure him that there is no question but that the Minister would want to be, and I would not want to be, a party to discrimination or stigmatisation against an ethnic minority, and every effort will be made to try to ensure that there is integration but the practical problems that arise from time to time must be taken into consideration. 1591 Mar fhocal scoir, gabhaim mo bhuíochas leis an Seanadóir as ucht an [1591] deis seo a thabhairt dom, thar ceann an Aire Leasa Shóisialaigh, freagra agus geallúint a thabhairt dó go ndéanfar athbhreithniú ginearálta agus, go dtabharfar na pointi éagsúla a d'árdaigh sé tráthnóna isteach san áireamh. Tá súil agam go mbeidh an tAire ábalta an fhadhb seo, más fadhb atá ann, a réiteach le linn a athbhreithniú ar na rialacha atá ann i láthair na huaire. Mr. B. Ryan Mr. B. Ryan 1592 Mr. B. Ryan: That is the worst reply I have ever received from a Minister in my [1592] period in this House. The Minister of State regurgitated the facts I had already stated and there was nothing new in his reply. It is an absolutely disgraceful reply. Mr. Gallagher Mr. Gallagher Mr. Gallagher: Facts are facts. The Senator had no opinions to offer. Mr. B. Ryan Mr. B. Ryan Mr. B. Ryan: The opinion is that the Government are picking on a racial minority. The Seanad adjourned at 8.45 p.m. until 10.30 a.m. on Wednesday, 17 July 1991. Seanad Éireann 129 Adjournment Matter.

West Yorkshire, UK melodic post-hardcore mob Road To Horizon have premiered two stunning new tracks "Open Your Eyes" and "Through Ashes", which are taken from the band's highly-anticipated forthcoming EP release – penned for Spring 2013.
The band, formed back in 2009, have experienced their fair share of line-up changes and setbacks, however with the mantra "What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger" the Wakefield lads have rolled their sleeves up and recording two absolute bangers.
"Open Your Eyes" and "Through Ashes" signify a shift in sound for the band, with shredding guitars, goliath growls and soaring vocals coming to the fore.
The band have toured with the likes of Rise To Remain, Funeral For A Friend and Attack! Attack! and will be sharing the stage with rapidly-rising UK band Hildamay in Leeds on 10th December 2012.
Road To Horizon have also found fame on BBC Three's "Don't Tell The Bride" series. Heavily featuring in the "metal wedding" episode, which aired in August 2012, the band are shown perfoming at the unique ceremony, along with getting the groom royally "fucked up" before the big day.
The still-to-be-titled EP is set for release in early spring 2013 and with this teasing taster – it's going to be a stormer!

Our house is 20 years old and we just noticed a hairline crack in one of our fiberglass tub enclosures. The crack is on the floor of the tub, and is approximately 3" long. We have no idea if water is going anywhere, we can just feel the crack with our fingernail ever so slightly. We have not seen any damages resulting from the crack, but we don't want to wait for trouble.
Can this crack be fixed without it being noticeable? Thanks for any help! |

Check to see if there are tub refinishers in your area,( such as Perma Glaze), to get estimates on the repair. Repairs before the re-finishing is typical on acrylic, fiberglass, and even porcelain veneered tub/showers. |
- Posted by maryland_irisman (email@example.com) on Sun, Feb 28, 10 at 14:56
Refinishers as mentioned by sierraeast would do the job so it would be nearly invisible. If costs are an issue, you can do it yourself but unless you do a lot of practice work first, chances are it will be noticeable. The hairline crack indicates there is some give that needs to be addressed also. A good patch is stronger than the base product which means a new crack may eventually show up nearby. The cause of the flexing can be fixed in several ways, some elaborate, some not so drastic. It depends on the situation of your installation. |
I'm trying to diagnose a leak from a fiberglass tub area. It's proving challenging because there are multiple spots under the tub that appear wet, yet when you see the inside of the tub, there is no apparent damage. Particularly I see water stains on the outside of the tub about 20 cm below where the tub spout is. The tub spout was not finished flush with the fiberglass, and the caulking has failed. I re-caulked it today. But the drip marks were not immediately around the hole for the spout. The white water stains have drip marks to the ground and the floor under the tub is soaked. But I also notice water actively getting through the tub where the tracking is for the shower door. Just in the one end of the outside of the tub which I have exposed, I saw 2 more wet spots. Does fiberglass sometimes get multiple pinhole leaks and cracks which are hard to see? |

I have a huge open living room (shaped like an L: 40' on the long sides, 24' on the short sides, with 10' ceilings on one side and 28' on the other) and am looking to redo the floor. (It's currently acid stained concrete which we love, but the upkeep is too much with the scratches). Obviously, standard size slabs would look really busy.(12" x 12" and 24" x 24" would look pretty bad in this huge of a room.)
I've been reading about these giant porcelain slabs (3m x 1m, 3/8" thick) called "Kerlite Plus." They came out on 2008. Does anyone have any info or experience with this product? Do you have any other suggestions for low-maintenance flooring in really big slabs? We want something nice (no suggestions of carpet or vinyl please -grin-). Thanks! |

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Teddy!
Facts about Teddy
- Breed: Pekingese Mix
- Color: Tan/Yellow/Fawn
- Age: Puppy
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Male
- ID#: Teddy
Teddy's Info...
I am already neutered and up to date with shots.
I am a male Pekingese mix puppy. I am about 10 months old. I am neutered, heartworm negative, current on shots, micro-chipped and on flea/heartworm prevention. My adoption is $200.
I was rescued from animal control where I given up by my owners who were moving. I would do best in a home without small kids because I might nip.
Since I am still a puppy, it is a requirement that I attend training classes here at the Petsmart in Altamonte Springs. Classes are one hour, once a week for six weeks. The cost of the classes is only $89 for all six sessions!
Please email for an application. A New Beginning Pet Rescue, Inc. only accepts cash. We do not have the ability to accept credit or debit cards and no longer accept checks. The pets are available to be seen at our adoption events on weekends at the Petsmart in Altamonte Springs on Saturday from 11-5 and Sunday from 12-5.
Other Pets at A New Beginning Pet Rescue, Inc.
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Teddy, a Orlando Pekingese puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Pekingese for sale in Orlando, or seeking a Pekingese puppy from a breeder in Orlando.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Orlando already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Orlando breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Pekingese breeders who help with Pekingese rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Orlando paves the way for another one to be saved.

OLOLC @ Tulane Hospital in New Orleans.
0Jul 25, '04 by angel 4HI, I wanted to know do anyone have information or are attend Our Lady of the Lake College at Tulane University Hospital in New Orleans. The program is an accelerated program and I am interested in going there. They have a ASN and BSN program. I wanted to know how their clinicals are and how many days students attend classes.
0Jul 29, '04 by angel 4Hi, VEKE-RNtobe. Yes, I received an application packet and it has the information you were talking about on the recent thread. I have a BS degree in social counseling and graduated and recently passed boards as an LPN. I am interested in attending the program since it is 10 months for the ASN.I am thinking about applying myself since the deadline is March 1. Are you planning to attend the next class in August of next year since they accept application once a year. I am glad to talk to someone that know about the program.
0Jul 30, '04 by angel 4This is a small world. I graduated from Our Lady of Holy Cross College in '02 with my degree. I completed my prereqs over there while I was in school. I stay on the Westbank. Where do you stay on the Westbank or Eastbank. Yes, I plan on attending the August class of next year. Did you sent your application already.That will be great for us to be study buddies. Do you have a email address maybe we can exchange.
0Aug 2, '04 by jemommyRNBEWARE
I have known about this program since it began last year. I also have a friend who was in the first program (last August) and has since graduated this past June. You can not go through this program without signing a contract with Tulane. There are no other options. You can get additional financial aid, but you MUST work for Tulane for two years. The reason that I have said beware is because they will tell you that you can work in any unit that has an opening at the time of graduation, However, that is NOT true. You are strictly trained in med surg and that is DEFINITELY where you will be working for the next two years. You do NOT get any other clinical rotation experience (Pediatric, critical care, LTC). This is not a bad thing if you want to work in med surg. If you want to do something else, then this may not be the school for you. I know that 10 months sounds GREAT, but if you are not happy after that time frame then was it worth it. I was thinking about going to this school (because I already have a degree) but I chose to go to another school with plenty of different clinical rotations because I want to be able to work wherever and on whatever unit when i finish. I am not discouraging any of you from this program, I am only telling you what I know to be true. The part that gets people angry is the fact that there ARE other units with openings at Tulane, and they WILL hire new grads in them, but the new grads that they are training through OLOL are strictly to fill their med surg openings. Even if you inquire, they will insist that you are able to go into any department you want to. Just be wise about the decision. -
0Aug 3, '04 by jemommyRNQuote from Veke-RN2BI chose to go to Charity because it is hard. It has a lot of different clinical experiences that you are subjected to. I already have a Bachelor's so getting a BSN wasn't all that fascinating to me. I just wanted what I thought was the school that prepared me for whatever field I wanted to work in.What school did you go to instead if you don't mind me asking?

Quick Results! Chest, Back, Shoulders, Legs
If you want to offer quick, exciting, results-driven experiences for participants, Triple Threat! is your class formula. This workout uses three forms of resistance, three different exercises and three sets of 8–24 reps that target each of the major muscle groups. The cookie-cutter template can be adapted to fit participants' goals and the equipment available. You can easily insert different moves into the chest, back, shoulders and legs categories to keep the class fresh. Triple Threat! is effective, time-efficient, integrated and multidimensional.
Each sequence consists of four exercises that target the chest, back, shoulders and legs. The number of repetitions will vary depending on goals, but normally participants perform 8–24 repetitions per exercise. After the first sequence (four exercises in a row, 8–24 repetitions each), everyone rests for 30–45 seconds before performing the second sequence—and so on.
Triple Threat! Details
Format: total-body strength
Total Time: a time-efficient 45 minutes
Equipment: dumbbells and stability balls
Music: 135 beats per minute (bpm) during the warm-up, 125–132 bpm afterward
A note about ball sizing: In a sitting position on the ball, knees should be level with the hips. Begin each exercise with light weight or no weight. Once students have mastered the movement pattern, gradually increase resistance. When using dumbbells for seated exercises on the ball, the goal is muscular endurance.
Warm-Up (~5 minutes)
Perform rhythmic, continuous, full-range-of-motion movements that mimic the upcoming moves. Include gentle static stretches through functional range of motion. Do 8–16 repetitions of each of the following:
- two squats with two lateral raises
- two hip hinges with two biceps curls
- two right-leg lunges with two shoulder presses
- two hip hinges with two external shoulder rotations
- two left-leg lunges with two shoulder rolls
- parallel squats with side raises
- spinal flexion and extension while in squat
Work Phase (~35 minutes)
This phase should consist of three different sequences. Here is one sample sequence:
- Lie with shoulders on ball. Bend knees at 90 degrees and place feet hip distance apart. Lift hips so torso is parallel with floor. Hold one dumbbell in each hand, elbows extended directly above shoulders.
- Slowly flex elbow, open elbow wide, and lower one dumbbell down to chest level while stabilizing other in press position.
- Press lowered dumbbell up and repeat, using opposite arm.
Single-Leg Two-Arm Row
- Balancing on one leg, hinge at hip until back is at 45-degree angle to ground. Keep support foot pointing straight ahead, knee slightly flexed and centered over foot. Extend arms, holding dumbbells beneath shoulders.
- Initiate scapular retraction and row dumbbells. Flex elbows and bring weights toward hips. Slowly return to starting position.
Teaching Tips: Maintain neutral spinal alignment. Keep elbows stacked above dumbbells throughout motion.
Standing Two-Arm Raise
- Begin with feet parallel, shoulder width apart. Hold dumbbells at sides, palms facing sides of thighs; flex knees slightly.
- Lift dumbbells to sides, away from body, until hands reach shoulder level. Slowly return arms to sides.
Dumbbell Squat
- Begin with feet parallel, shoulder width apart.
- Slowly squat, bending knees and flexing hips. Aim buttocks back and keep chest lifted.
- Contract glutes to stand; press through heels as knees extend.
Finish workout with a stretching series (~5 minutes) for the chest, back, anterior/posterior deltoids, hamstrings, hip flexors and quadriceps.

Be Careful out there! The grass & brush is very dry so when there is a Red Flag warning, don't do any weed eating with metal blades. A small fire was started today from a resident trying to clear brush with a bladed weed whacker. While it's good to clear dry brush, it's imperative to pay attention to the weather and the wind, especially now.
Since Fresh and Easy does not appear to be coming here, what would you like to see come to Alpine? We really need an anchor store in the Alpine Town Creek Center Shopping Mall. Since Daniels left over a year ago, that building has remained vacant. Fresh and Easy had plans of opening here in Alpine, creating a nice convenience for the people at the west end of town, however, Fresh and Easy has published in news flashes that they are now closing stores. So Alpiners, what do you want to see come into Alpine?
I can't help but think that the parents that are upset about the fence being built between the Alpine Community Center and the Alpine Elementary School is skipping a whole issue. . .The ACC is private property. This is not a County maintained community center, and therefore, they have a right to maintain their property the way they see fit to promote the use and well-being of the business.
To demand that the Community Center keep their gate open for the use of the parents of the students is akin to asking your neighbor to open up their property fence so you can take a shortcut to the vehicle that you have parked in their back yard.
News 8 reported this morning that a new strain of NoroVirus is racing through. This time around it's affecting the gastro-intestinal tract and causes severe vomiting and nausea. This is a great time to make sure that you wash your hands often, stay away from public places if it's not necessary, use and sanitizers etc. This NoroVirus is now labeled as one of the main factors in food poisoning as well. If you are a food handler, and you are suffering from illness, call in sick. This virus is getting nastier and nastier as it evolves. Good luck, and stay healthy!
Hey everyone, it's cold outside! Over the weekend we hit some pretty low lows. 27 degrees when I woke up and the snow is still sitting on the ground. Just a thought. . . If you have extra, try and share. . .Extra blankets, extra warm hats, scarves, gloves and mittens? The homeless are cold during these months, and they could use what you don't want or need right now. Remember, the homeless are not all there by choice. . .This economy is putting whole families on the street. The shelters and food banks can use what ever you can afford to share.
Now is the time to let your kindness surface, and bring something special with you every day! Even if it's a smile and a warm greeting to those you pass on the sidewalk, or in the store. These times are filled with the hustle and bustle of everyone's crunch time to get 'it' all done be fore the big day, and sometimes the stress of it all makes us all a little edgy. Sometimes just a kind smile, or a thoughtful word, and change everyone's attitude. That is not to say that it will fix everything, but maybe if we try to bring about some holiday cheer in non-monetary measures, we can learn how to warm the heart of humanity, and it's completely free!
We're almost there everyone! Like us on Facebook and help us reach our goal before Christmas, only 10 more to go!
The murmerings of snow in the back country and in the mountains continue through town, and down the hill. Last night people were stocking up on pellets for the stoves, wood shavings and feed for the animals.
While in town, pick up some extra hot cocoa or spicy tea and enjoy the warm fireplace as it blazes heating up your space, while you peruse the latest issue of The Alpine Sun!
Tonight's the night! The Annual Alpine Light parade is ON (so to speak) tonight at 6:30 p.m. This annual parade is a great HIGHLIGHT ( pun intended) for our community. Many participants decorate and walk or ride in the parade and it is truly a great kick off to our Alpine Holiday Season!
Most of the Alpine Residents have received their Fire Tax Bills. If you haven't had a chance to research this 'fee', check out the Fire Tax Protest webpage authored by the Howard Jarvis Foundation. This webpage is: http://firetaxprotest.org/.

Venus Fly Trap Experiment
Name: Jeremy Bailey Status: N/A Age: N/A Location: N/A Country: N/A Date: N/A
My name is Jeremy Bailey, and I am a student of Dorseyville Middle School. I have been working on a science project about Venus' Fly Traps. A recent addition to the project involved designing an experiment about something I found interesting about them. However, I don't know where to get them or how to grow them in the moderate climate of Pittsburgh. Also, I don't know how a successful experiment could be designed.
Jeremy, I believe Venus Fly traps can be found 'in the wild' in the coastal floodplain of the Carolinas. As far as where to buy them, look in the phonebook yellow pages under plants or houseplants and do some calling. I live in eastern Pennsylvania, and over here they even sell them in hardware stores like Hechinger's and Home Depot (in their garden departments). I don't think you will have luck trying to grow them outside, our winters here are a bit too harsh for them. From what I recall they require substantial moisture and more moderate climes. You might try looking for houseplant books at your local library for more detailed information.

'Alice' from Momchil Hristov retains the classic themes of Alice in Wonderland while still remaining colorful and stylish. Looks like the rabbit hole just got a whole lot more stylish. No jeans and sneakers allowed anymore. Looks like I'm outta luck.

Facial Reflexology What is Face Reflexology Devised by Lone Sorensen , Face Reflexology combines three ancient therapies with modern science of neurology. It is the combination of Traditional Chinese Medicine, South American Zone Therapy, Vietnamese face maps & points and our most current knowledge of neuro-anatomy.
Our face contains numerous nerves and blood vessels. It's close proximity to the brain insures facial stimulation as the shortest pathway to the brain center, offering an more efficient effect in balancing ones health concerns. The stimulation works through the Central Nervous System to specific organs and systems to regulate your blood, lymph, body functions and hormones. This complementary therapy is designed to assess the underlying cause of the ones compromised health, yet also assist with the treatment of symptoms. What is a treatment like? The treatment is a gentle non-invasive therapy. One remains completely clothed at all times.
Face Reflexology is deeply soothing. Often we don't realize the tension and stress that our facial muscles are holding transmitting to our entire body. This tension is created by mundane activities: chewing, grinding teeth, tired or straining eyes, even laughing. Our faces are the first locations we exhibit our emotions or suppress them. With Face Reflexology, stimulation of the points and zones trigger release of endorphins and serotonin, so one comes away relaxed and rejuvenated. The deep smooth massage steadily releases the tension and balances the central nervous system helping the body to heal itself.
A light oil is applied to the face to assist in the technique. It is a rich handcrafted Rosehip Oil gathered from wild roses in the protected region of Argentina's Rainforest. Naturally abundant in vitamin C, the oil heals and conditions the face, leaving the skin more supple, toned and healthier.
Who can benefit?
Face Reflexology may be used to assist in the treatment for specific conditions, to maintain ones health, or purely for facial rejuvenation and relaxation. As a complimentary therapy, Face Reflexology does not claim to cure but does greatly enhance and assist in the treatment of many conditions.
• Allergies • Anxiety & Stress • Arthritic Conditions • Bells Palsy • Depression • Digestive Problems • Insomnia • Infertility • Migraines • Stroke Rehabilitation • and many more... Children and Young Adults
The Institute since 1978 has helped children with Facial Reflexology for an assortment of diverse problems. Most common is with the child having difficulty in school. This can be due to various reasons
• difficulty remaining in seat • learning challenges • problems concentrating • weak memory and recall • peers causing emotional difficulties • having no friends • stress and anxiety The parent often feels at a loss how to help the child and at times feels quite desperate. The problems are unresolved and the lack of success then causes even more stress and anxiety. Research in the U.S.A. has found that 12% of children born under difficult labor circumstances suffer from what is termed "post-traumatic brain damage."
Often within a few treatments, positive results are obtained. A sense of balance and tranquility are restored giving the child more ability to learn thus raising their self-confidence. Harmony returns to the family.
What to expect after a treatment
Many people describe it as a deeply relaxing, soothing treatment, leaving one with the added bonus of a healthier complexion and radiant face. One must also remember that as a treatment stimulating the entire body, one can experience symptoms of detoxing….these are merely temporary and signal the body is working to cleanse and balance. Symptoms of detoxification could be headaches, chills, profuse sweating, change in bowels or more frequent need to urinate. It is important to rest and drink plenty of water after the treatment to support the body in it's transition. If any of these symptoms occur, remember it is temporary and signals the body is working.

6 Scenes We Love From 'You Can't Take It With You'
Features By Christopher Campbell on August 18, 2013 | Comments (1)Frank Capra's adaptation of You Can't Take It With You is one of the least favorite Best Picture winners. For many critics, but not for me. Outside of It's a Wonderful Life, this film was my gateway to Capra, who I consider one of the most fascinating Golden Age directors. It was also my introduction to Jean Arthur, forever since my primary Hollywood crush. My interest in the film initially came about through a high school production of Moss Hart and George S. Kaufman's Pulitzer Prize-winning play, in which I played an FBI agent. As an idealistic teen, everything from the title to the anarchic yet loving clan of eccentrics spoke to me. It's fair that some people don't think YCTIWY deserved the top Oscar, especially since it was up against such great movies as Grand Illusion and The Adventures of Robin Hood. Also, if you know Capra was at the time president of the Academy and was supposed to host the ceremony again that year and he threatened both a resignation and a massive boycott of the event out of support for the near-to-strike Screen Directors Guild and is said to have been honored for his leadership in resolving the whole matter, well all that seems to make the wins for Best Picture and Best Director (out of seven nominations) a little fishy. Awards matters aside, though, it's hard not to like YCTIWY with its perfect ensemble cast and its happy-go-lucky political hodgepodge. It's far from perfect, hardly Capra's […]
Could a U.S. Senator Really Filibuster for 24 Hours Like 'Mr. Smith'?
Features By Kevin Carr on July 3, 2013 | Be the First To CommentOne of the most famous films that Jimmy Stewart ever had to stand to the point of exhaustion in was Frank Capra's Mr. Smith Goes to Washington. Made almost a decade before his even more famous yet less senatorial It's a Wonderful Life, the film tells the story of a small-town man who is appointed as a U.S. Senator to replace one that has suddenly died. Stewart stars as Jefferson Smith, an idealistic man who takes his new job almost too seriously. However, Smith's wide-eyed wonder at the seat of government is soon rocked by political corruption and dirty dealings. Smith tries to arrange the use of public land for boy rangers in his home state, causing a problem for the building of a dam in the same area — a dam that's a critical part of a bill being pursued by local tycoon and political heavy Jim Taylor (Edward Arnold) who has the state's other Senator, Joseph Paine (Claude Rains), as well as the media back home, in his pocket. When Smith sees he's being railroaded out of the process, his secretary Clarissa Saunders (Jean Arthur) helps him use the political machine to uncover the truth. Smith is forced to take the Senate floor, beginning a one-man filibuster to delay the voting on the bill until the people from his home state cry out to support his cause. Without pink sneakers, Smith makes it just shy of 24 hours before collapsing from exhaustion. So it got us wondering: can a […]
