I used the volunteer welding supply. It was easy and only took two minutes. It cost $11.47 for a 5 pound tank.
I am currently faced with an issue. I have a CO2 tank that was called "odd ball as sh!t." The local welding supply will not swap it, and they don't do filling. The only place in town that does to filling said that it needed to be hydrotested. Hydrotesting is down out of town and is a 70 mile round trip. So the cost of gas, the cost to test, the cost of filling, plus having to test it again in a few years just to pay everything all over again? Am I better off just buying a used one and having it filled for $83? On that note, if I am just swaping them, but I purchased one, I should never have to have one tested because it will be the responsibility of the merchant to test the equipment he's giving me, correct? Buying used and swapping sounds better than the filling option. Let me know!
Buying a used tanks and trading them in a you say is the best option for exactly the reasons you point out.
Just as a follow-up footnote: I'm faced with the same dilemma, but in Renton, WA.
My LHBS will exchange cylinders, and so will every welding shop around here, for around $12-$16. None that I have found will fill on premises. For the record, the cheapest was Central Welding at $12.14 for a 5 lb exchange.
However, I have found that Kent Oxygen will fill on premise if you leave the tank. $20 for 5 pounds. I think I am going to go this route.
There are reasons I want to keep my brand new tank. I think the $4 or so is worth it. I can explain why, if necessary
I have a local welding shop charge me 10 bucks...My local LHBS will exchange my brand new tank for a crappy old one 25 bucks..I'll stick with the local welding shop...
Spezialisiert auf Deutsch Lagerbier...
I ran out of CO2 on New Year's Eve and was at the welding supply store 35 minutes before they closed trying to get my new aluminum tank refilled.
They had shut their pumps down at 2pm so they could not refill (the usual time I did not know about).
They swapped my 5lb new aluminum tank for a 10 lb steel tank for the same price as a 5 lb. fill.
They put my name on the aluminum tank and will swap it back when I'm done with the 10 pounder. I DIDN'T EVEN ASK, THEY OFFERED!
Rockford Industrial Welding Supply, you rule and saved New Years!
Hope everyone else has good experiences like this.
^^I would agree with that, but you're not actually breathing the beer co2 in. I would think that any sediment, rust, etc., would precipitate out to the bottom of the beer. Worst case is you're getting a little more iron in your diet
My supplier did say they fill tanks differently based on what they were used for. I didn't get the chance to ask him what the difference was (was @ work when he called to ask), but the food grade filling vessel makes sense. I should probably follow up on that when he drops it off.
I'm stopping by to have my "NEW" 5# tank filled at Praxair on my way home tonight!
I'll try and remember to ask them the difference. I'm thinking if their pump is "Wet/oil bath" rather than "DRY" that they would use a oil/air separator to remove the oil from the CO2 for the "Food Grade" stuff... But that's just me thinking off the cuff.
I'll find out tonight.

Monthly rents hit record highs in Stanislaus County
After remaining relatively flat for nearly a decade, apartment rents are on the rise in the Northern San Joaquin Valley, according to research by RealFacts.
Modesto's average monthly rent in newer apartment complexes rose to a record $854 this spring, 4.3 percent higher than during the same months last year.
Turlock and Manteca also hit record highs for rent this spring.
But "high" is a relative term when it comes to rent. The Valley continues to be a bargain for renters compared with what apartments go for elsewhere in California.
The state's average monthly price has reached $1,690, and rents have increased to an average $2,158 in the nine-county Bay Area.
San Francisco apartments continue to collect some of the highest rents in the world: an average $3,229 per month, 9.4 percent more than last year.
Merced and Sonora were among the few California cities where rents did not go up this spring. With average rents at less than $800, they have some of the least expensive apartments in the state.

And what points would those be? Care to list them again since I don't know which one of your posts are "the original" post? You have a lot of posts on this topic.<quoted text>
I see you are evading the points in the original posts. Ha. That's OK I understand. You STILL have not refuted one word of my original post. Ha.
You also like to pretend Zimmerthug didn't exit his vehicle and hunt Trayvon down. Don't worry, that will be a point the state will make in front of a jury. You'll get it then but you won't like it.
Now where do you get this idea I don't think Zim exited his vehicle? I've repeatedly said he exited his vehicle. He was legally allowed to exit his vehicle. He lived in the complex so he exited his vehicle hundreds of times there. Now do explain, how does one hunt another down when he was on the phone with police for a couple of minutes? Pretty hard to do, don't you think? Especially when the person he is supposedly hunting twice as fast as he is and much younger.

Review: The Subways at 53 Degrees
Saturday October 25 all photos courtesy of Lisa Stirling This morning, a large amount of Prestonians woke up with the happiest bruises. The reason for that is that The Subways were back at 53 Degrees having not played Preston in far too long. It was apparent straight from the instantly recognisable opening drumbeat of Oh Yeah that Preston was happy to have The Subways back. […]5 months ago by Luke Beardsworth Share

Ben Thatcher, drummer in the popular duo, was recently interviewed and asked about the Preston gig. He responded with shock at […]5 months ago by Luke Beardsworth Share

Preston North End's legendary Invincibles have been inducted into the National Football Museum Hall of Fame. The ceremony took place on Thursday October 16 at it's new location in Manchester.

Actress Emma Thompson sparked a pie-throwing melee during her appearance on talk show Late Show With David Letterman Tuesday night when she hurled a creamy dessert at the veteran host. The Howards End Oscar-winner threw a pie at co-star Angela Lansbury in her latest film, Nanny McPhee, and was explaining to Letterman what the experience was like. She recalls, "Proudest moment of my acting career, really. I didn't know that pie-throwing was so cathartic. It's heaven throwing pies. But they have to have weight to them - heavy cream." Letterman stunned the actress by producing a cream pie and challenged her to test her skills by throwing a pie at his face. The shocked actress stood up, took aim and threw, managing to cover half of the host's face with the pie, while the show's house band played Rule Britannia in the background. Thompson set off a chain reaction of cream pie throwing involving bandleader Paul Shaffer, the show's announcer and a cue card holder, which ended with Thompson herself getting a pie in the face from Letterman. »

Emma Thompson keeps her two Oscars in her bathroom because she is embarrassed to show them off in a more prominent position in her home. The 46-year-old won the Best Actress Academy Award in 1993 for her role in Howards End and a Best Screenplay statuette for her 1996 Sense And Sensibility script, adapted from Jane Austen's classic novel. She says, "They look far too outre anywhere else. They're great big, gold, shiny things. They're up there tarnishing quietly along with everything else I own, including my body." »

Our goal is to rescue abused, neglected, and abandoned canines with a focus on rehabilitation through calm, assertive energy and positive reinforcement.
Our goal is to rescue abused, neglected, and abandoned canines with a focus on rehabilitation through calm, assertive energy and positive reinforcement.
-Puppies (not neutered/spayed)- $200; plus a $100 surcharge that will be reimbursed with proof of neuter/spay when puppy is of age
-Adults (neutered/spayed)- $250
All dogs that are of age WILL be spayed/neutered before they can be adopted out.
-Spay or Neuter
-Flea treatment
-Up to date vaccinations
-Tips on training and building a bond with your new friend
Money donated is used for food and vet bills.
Interested in becoming a guardian to one of our adoptable dogs? Follow these few simple steps:
1) Fill out our Adoption Application and send it to firstname.lastname@example.com
2) We will contact your references and veterinarian, and then you to talk about the dog you are interested in.
3) We will then set up a home check. A home check gives us an idea of how the dog will live once it gets adopted. A 'test-dog' may join us on the home check to see how your family interacts with a dog.
4) If everything checks out, the foster family will arrange for your
family to meet the adoptable dog to ensure that everyone gets along appropriately.
5) If accepted, the final step is to fill in the adoption contract, and take your new friend home.
Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! What is the difference between adopting a dog or puppy versus getting dogs for sale or puppies for sale from a dog breeder? When someone is breeding puppies, they are creating new dogs who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog or puppy and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale from a puppy breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs who must find homes. So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog or adopt a puppy at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.

As the title suggests, Yo La Tengo explores sunny sounds and Brazilian beats on Summer Sun, though, true to form, many of the beats come compliments of a crusty analog drum machine. It seems that frontman Ira Kaplan has relinquished his title as the Jewish Jimi Hendrix and is now shooting for the title of the Jewish João Gilberto. His fiery electric guitar is all but absent, replaced by a classy Hammond organ on tracks such as "Moonrock Mambo." Lyrically, the songs tread the same ground of uneasy love and gentle reassurance; they aren't exactly beach blanket sing-alongs, but they ease into the flowing, formless sounds. No one captures the delicate intricacies of atmospherics as well as Yo La Tengo, and the record follows a nice ebb-and-flow that smooths out the shoreline with placid waters.
Summer Sun has some bright points, mostly on the songs that drummer Georgia Hubley sings, but its defining sound is the drone of mediocrity. But such is the unbearable burden of being Yo La Tengo, as a peerless ten-year run has come to an end.

We had the first big name get traded this year with Rajon Rondo getting dealt to the Mavs. It's a perfect "Shark Tank" deal for Mark Cuban. It sends a message that the Mavs are going for it this year. I don't blame them since Dirk isn't getting any younger. I really like this deal for Dallas. It brings stability to the PG position for Dallas and we seen in the past what Rondo can do with skilled talent surrounding him. Dallas sure has that. Plus, Rondo isn't under contract next year. If it doesn't work out in Dallas the Mavs aren't on the hook for any money after this year. I was surprised they got him so cheap. Yeah, Dallas sent 3 players in the deal but it's not like those players were really heavily involved in the rotation for the Mavs. Also, rumors are the Celtics are already shopping Brandan Wright. The only thing the Celtics really wanted was the two picks they got in the deal and the $12.9 million trade exception . The Celtics now have eight first round picks in the next four years. I'm also curious to see if what Jae Crowder can do if he gets some time. I really liked his game at Marquette and never felt like he was given a great opportunity in Dallas. Now the the player to keep your eye is first round pick Marcus Smart with Rodo out of town. This kid can flat out score but the biggest hurdle is if he can stay healthy. With all that said, how about we get on with this small 6 game slate:Please, blog, may I have some more?
The embargo is lifted! I can't wait to buy some cigars… If you missed it, Obama has opened his front door to Cuba while continuing to backdoor the Canada oil pipeline. Hey-o!
And Mark Cuban has opened up his roster for some international trade, bringing Rajon Rondo into Texas. The Mavericks are reportedly changing their team name to the Dallas "You Don't Mess With Texas!" Huge move in real basketball, but who cares about any of that?! Rondo takes a pretty substantial hit to his value, as Monta Ellis is going to sap a lot those assists with his slashes. But it's nothing to panic about, as his atrocious 40.5 FG% will go up and the 3.4 TO should go down. And maybe a coach there can teach him how to hit a FT…
The rest of the swapperoo is Jameer Nelson, Brandan Wright, Jae Crowder and a first-rounder to Boston for Rondo and Dwight Powell with a swap of second-round picks thrown around in there just to make it look fancier. I guess if you still had Nelson in a 12 or 14er, he's droppable. I could see Tyler Zeller lose some PT to Wright, but who knows. Chapel hill centers, reunite! The obvious big impact here is Marcus Smart, who was at 30% owned right when the trade broke (somehow got him in both RCLs!). That only shot up to 40% right when this posts, so he's still available in several leagues. Boston has no reason to start Nelson over him in order to get a ton of development time for their rook PG. His fantasy game is really limited – I still don't think the treys are going to come around in a huge way this year and we'll be happy to see half the assists Rondo was getting a night. But he should be plenty good enough for all 12ers. Smart stashers feeling smart! Here's what else went down last night in NBA action:
[Psyche! Quick note that I'm off next Monday, then Thursday and Friday due to Holiday scheduling. So Daily Notes will only be out Tuesday and Wednesday next week, along with our Holiday special Razzball Basketball Podcast on Tuesday. But I am of course always here for comments, even on Christmas, so if you need to get away from screaming kids in order to scream about how Batum has been awful, we're ya spot!]Please, blog, may I have some more?
I've got the ring in the cake. The scoreboard operator has got it cued up for the 2nd quarter under-8 timeout. The plane with some really carcinogenic toxins is ready to pollute the atmosphere in a "Will U Marry Me?" loopy smokestream.
An unsung contributor this year, DeMarre Carroll racked up another under-the-radar line last night for 14 Pts, 11 Reb, 3 Ast, 3 Stl, 2 3PTM, and a partridge in a pear tree! No TO, and other than blocks really hits all the Silver Bells and whistles. Hitting a career best 1.6 treys a game, it's a Christmas miracle his FG% is at 46%. The dimes don't do much either, but there's no reason not to to Sleigh Ride him while he's hitting most of the cats this hard. Even a Silent Night or two won't scare me away, and at only 61% ownership in Yahoo, I feel like there's still a lot of leagues where he could bring Joy to the World. So sing a holiday carol for DeMarre, and even though nothing is too sexy, I felt like I needed Hark! The Herald Angels Sing (full disclosure, I had to look up a list of Christmas songs for this bit, I'm such a Grinch). Here's what else went down last night in fantasy basketball:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Welcome back, Mr. Slim Reaper! It's a perfectly apt nickname too, because I own him in the JB vs. Slim RCL league and he's going to be Slim's reaper! Even though I'm getting crushed this week so far…
After a decent enough start, Kevin Durant was still without the big eruption type game in his first three back, but last night dismantled the Bucks in an uber-efficient 23/9/7/1/1 game shooting 7-11 FG and 8-8 FT. He's worth 9 or 10 Bucks, at the least! Was 1-5 from deep, so didn't miss within the arc. All of that in 29 minutes, as Beam-me-up Scotty Brooks benched the Thunder studs down the stretch of the double-digit win. Even though this was against the young Bucks, the Thunder as a whole are coming together with Russell Westbrook having a fantastic 28/5/7 night with like, a million free throws made, and Serge Ibaka is back to his %-gold ways for 15/5/0/2/2 shooting 5-5 FG & 5-5 FT. Durantula and Westy are going to command their first-round values in trades, but I bet you could still swindle Ibaka away at a buy-low price. 3+ blocks the past four games and 16-26 from the field his last three, and isn't needing to force shots anymore. Things are right in order for OKC to go on a mad run, so be counting your lucky stars if you got KD at a discount on draft day! What we preached all preseason post-injury! Here's some other happenings from the NBA last night:Please, blog, may I have some more?
… especially since the Sixers are probably going to stay with that one in the win column for a good while!
One… The number of restarts to the Sixers game… What, was Tim Donaghy reffing and have odds on the Wolves scoring first?! Seriously, the Sixers couldn't win a game without controversy?! Then again there was that Bucks game, sheesh (more below).
One… The number of TOs Michael Carter-Williams will never have in a game… Only one game under three TO this year, but hey, everything else is pretty sexy out there! Near tripdub last night in the Sixers W for 20/9/9 and three steals. Finally putting the W in MCW! Shot 9-20 from the field, but when he's at the FT line it still gives him delirium triggers like a recovering alcoholic! It's actually "delirium tremens", but man I love that old Coheed song! 2-7 from the stripe last night with the whopping 6 giveaways, and it's what you bargain for as an MCW owner. It's almost like he sold his soul to the efficiency gods just to put up sexy triple-double stats. Maybe when Tony Wroten comes back, he can just be MCW's TO-surrogate. "Tony, just turn it over a few times, and it'll get em out of my system." I feel like trading away/for MCW has been the most frequently asked comment… I was huge on him heading into the year, and even though his FT/TO drain hurt him in the metrics, I think if you can build around that – even in 9-cat – he's probably worth more than most owners think. While those 9-cat metrics that rate everything equally are how they should work, remember it's a team game and strengths/weaknesses play off each other. All you really want is one! One more win than the other team in the fantasy championship. Of course in Roto, you can't handle those ones! So I would be selling in those formats. Here's what else went down last night in fantasy action:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Some big games last night! Easily the most fun Tuesday we've had on the young season. Twas a… Ruby Tuesday? There's really no good Tuesday references… Have you ever thought about how much Tuesday sucks? There's nothing interesting at all about Tuesday! Tuesday is just a lost day… Except let's hope you were able to watch some hoops action, as this Tuesday was a big one!
And none bigger than LaMarcus Aldridge torching Denver, putting up 39 Pts on 16-30 shooting. What's hilarious about his 39/11/1/0/2 line is that one assist was a high-low pass to the awful Robin Lopez for the game-winning layup with one second left. Surprised Lopez didn't botch it! When you have Sonic the Hedgehog as your haircut, it's got to be distracting… L.A. with all that production with no TO and 7-9 FT is showing us why he's boring, but reliable as a second-round fantasy producer. It's easy to miss the solid volume FT% and if he gets that 3-pointer dropping like the 0.5 he's bringing this year – a new development for L.A. – it's icing on the cake. Mostly this whole open was just to highlight I'm up 3-0 on Slim in our 30-point challenge! Even after his slimy Kevin Durant pick. Slimy, I say! I think Aldridge has moved into that top 13 or 14 overall, with double-digit boards in six straight bringing those rebounds closer to the 11.1 we saw last year. If he can avoid any injuries, he'll be a premiere day of the week, like Friday or something. No one wants to be a dud like Tuesday, which more than suitably personifies Robin Lopez. Henceforth, I will now call Tuesdays "Robin Lopez Day". Here's some other happenings that went on across the NBA on Robin Lopez Day:Please, blog, may I have some more?
As most of you don't know, I'm actually Will Smith's illegitimate first son. If you don't believe me, well you more or less have to click on that link and read it, or else the following will be too esoteric… Too ephemeral…
After Mo Williams was moved back into the starting line-up last night, he showed his Rubio-esqueness going 14/3/13 in a fantastic dimebag performance. The chosen player for the open this morning, I asked Mo to interview me and my method for compartmentalizing everything fantasy basketball into a daily recap:
Mo: What have you been reading lately?
JB: Ya know, totem pole haikus, Ke$ha's twitter profile, because ya know… Because living.
Mo: I feel ya. So what'd you think about my facilitating last night? Pretty sick line back in the starting 5.
JB: Well, I don't really watch the NBA. There's no sports I like to watch, so I make them up myself and watch them again, and it's the best thing… But even in my self-created NBA, it was pretty impressive. The way you can distribute while making time go slow… Or fast… As you please… And how you know it doesn't exist.
Mo: I have been turning back the clock, that's for sure! That baby Zach LaVine is way behind me for fantasy these days, right?
JB: He's the feeling of like, a fragment of a holographic reality…
Mo: You're right, pretty easy call there. So are you dropping say… Tony Wroten for me?
JB: There's a duality to it. So when one thought goes into your mind, it's not just one thought, it has to bounce off both hemispheres of the brain. When you're thinking "yes", you're thinking "no". It's a tool for understanding. It comes from a place of oneness.
Mo: I have no idea what the F you're saying. Just tell me, am I a good medium-term value until Ricky Rubio gets his ankle all healed up?!
JB: If he wants his muscles to grow, he has to shock them. If you want society to change, you have to shock them. That's what art is, shocking people.
Mo: Fine. Whatever. I know I'm legit, LaVine shoulda stayed in school longer…
JB: You never learn anything in school. Think about how many people die in hospitals every day. Med school? What's up with that!? I still haven't been to med school and I haven't died in a hospital, I can't see how med school is really helping anyone out… Same with LaVine, in whatever universal form he occupies…
Mo: Occupy? #OccupyDraymondGreen?!
JB: Forever, 'til the day that we're in our bed!
Here's what else went down in NBA action last night:Please, blog, may I have some more?
This NBA DFS season has been kind of a roller coaster ride. The ownership of players is higher than normal. Seems like everyone is on the same value players night after night. If your high priced players you spend on don't tank and reach value then you're going to do well. So be smart and don't take too many risky players. Also with the NFL, NHL and College Football going on too, be smart with your bankroll.
On Saturday we have a 7 game slate:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Anyone watch the Mavs host the Celtics last night? Game be scrappy! Rajon Rondo tackled Monta Ellis towards the end trying to restrain him for a hard foul, and I got confused if I was watching hoops or that MNF tragedy! Ellis held his knee for a bit there, so let's hope he's OK…
But the big story in that one was Jeff Green's absurdity. Well, it actually mimicked the absurdity of this game. Down 30 in the second quarter, the Celtics somehow came back – in Dallas – to make it a nailbiter to the finish. The Mavs took Jeff Green as seriously as fantasy owners this year, and he had one of his three monster games he'll have this season. 35/7/2/1/2 shooting 14-28 including 5-12 from downtown. If there was ever a sell high game, this would be it. You need any data to back it up? How about after his last big game – 39/6 with four treys against the Pelicans on March 16th, 2014? The subsequent 8 games immediately afterwards – 11.8/3.6/2.3 shooting 34% from the field. Green is Brandon Jennings in a SF/PF body. They couldn't even do a Freaky Friday remake with these two, they'd wake up and look at their new bodies in the mirror and go, "meh, at least I can still get hot one game outta ten shooting the ball…"
Green's first two games were the expected blah, and he just doesn't do anything but score and trey… Glorified ThrAGNOF! Is Chris Copeland really that much worse than Jeff Green right now? Maybe Citizen Copeland doesn't have this kind of big game upside, but it's why we preach to stream your threeballers. Stream your polyorchids! Learn something new every day here at Razzball… Here's what else went down last night in fantasy hoops action:Please, blog, may I have some more?
What a night for the Brow!
On a near-unparalleled night for my bold call for MVP yesterday and Razzball's #1 fantasy pick, I've gotta say, it feels like it's going to be a great season! An unbelievable 26/17/2/3/9 in a near trip-dub with the blocks, and fitting he'd be 2014-15's first rainbow line (at least 2 Pts/Reb/Ast/Stl/Blk). In H2H leagues, if you have Brow you better win blocks this week! Not only were those blocks more than enough, but Brow was a solid 10-22 from the field (6-9 FT), and didn't commit a single TO. About all you could complain about is if you play in a triple-doubles league, he just needed one more swat! Just one!
Of the 25 experts on FantasyPros, only 5 had Brow #1 overall with yours truly one of the five, and Razzball's Seth a second. Now, before you go unloading your top 5 picks for Brow in a desperate trade, don't forget this was against the Magic who looked pretty horrific. Then again, Stephen Curry and LeBron James are going to have to do something outrageous to make the Brow non-believers feel better tomorrow…

Interesting find in pond
chemgeekponderJune 3, 2009
Last night, I moved a rock along the edge of my pond and found a grayish black moving mass of something. While I watched, the mass resolved into hundreds of tiny frogs, or my guess, toads. All less than 1/4" long, gray black in color. Now I have to provide them with an escape from the pond and the evil goldfish from which they were hiding, as they are about 14 inches below the rocks framing the pond edge.

New Zealand Superannuation Fund(NZ Super) was founded in 2001 as a means to help smooth the tax burden associated with rising universal pension costs among the island nation's generations. Later, it helped pioneer an innovative portfolio management policy to "tilt" toward better prospects within its allocation strategy. With $21.5 billion in assets under management, the fund is viewed as an exemplar of governance and investment acumen among sovereign wealth funds.
We've changed that quite a lot in the last few years. We were much more traditional. Five years ago we would allocate $50 million and hope that we'd get it back plus a little bit more in 10 or 12 years. Then we changed our focus to becoming a little more opportunity-driven, we want to be able to change the amount of risk we're allocating to an opportunity if that opportunity changes………………………………………..Full Article: Source

Teledex Receives Patent for ExpressNet(R) ExpressPort Adapter.
SAN JOSE, Calif. -- Teledex, the leading worldwide provider of guest room telephones for the hospitality industry, announced today it has received United States Patent #7,130,417 B1, dated October 31, 2006, for its ExpressNet ExpressPort under-phone adapter for high-speed Internet access. The issuance of the patent recognizes the unique and valuable characteristics of the ExpressPort adapter as a powerful solution for the deployment of broadband access for hotel guest rooms.
Nicholas Steigelman of Teledex, co-inventor of the device - and the company's western-region data products manager - comments: "We're quite pleased to receive this patent for our ExpressPort adapter. Early on, we recognized the need for a compact, integrated solution for the deployment of broadband access in hotel rooms. We've found that a large number of our customers and contacts in the industry quickly appreciate the ease of installation and space-saving design that the ExpressPort provides. The awarding of this patent helps solidify ExpressNet's position as a unique and powerful solution-set."
Teledex CEO Ron Lesniak, also co-inventor of the device, notes: "We're proud of the market position ExpressNet has been able to achieve in a relatively short period of time. Our customers understand that since Internet access in guest rooms is a highly visible and popular amenity, it has to work well, and the interface needs to be tidy and attractive. Our patented ExpressPort design not only saves space on the desk, it also eliminates the tangled-wire mess that's common with other solutions. These two factors alone make ExpressNet unique and very attractive to our customers. My congratulations go out to everyone on our team who contributed to the development of this device."
Besides providing a compact housing for a high-speed Internet access interface, the patented ExpressPort also provides significant software logic and intelligence that enables simplified integration to a hotel network, further streamlining the installation of broadband-enabled terminals in guest rooms. The company's ExpressNet AirLink solution family utilizes the patented ExpressPort adapter to house VDSL wired and wireless access points, which use existing telephone wiring (commonly referred to as CAT 2/3 cabling) to deliver broadband connections to the network endpoints. Teledex ExpressNet installations are approaching 100,000 guest rooms worldwide.
The AirLink system brings a combination of wired and wireless HSIA to lodging properties of all types. Rooms that are installed with an AirLink wireless access point get both a wired and wireless connection. These rooms typically represent approximately twenty percent (20%) of the guest rooms at any one property; all other rooms have wireless-only access. Wired rooms can be reserved on a first-come first-served basis for those who have an immediate need, such as government or corporate guests.
About Teledex
Now in its third decade, Teledex has shipped over 9 million guestroom telephones to over 125 countries, and is the preferred supplier of guestroom telephones to all major global hotel chains, as well as a number of other multinational corporations. Teledex's award-winning ExpressNet[R] solutions deliver reliable, high performance high-speed Internet solutions at very affordable costs. Teledex's innovative iPhone VoIP solutions put cutting-edge VoIP features within the reach of any hotel, anywhere. For more information, please visit www.teledex.com.

My name is Mikkel, better know on the internet as Nilghai. I'm a game developer, and I have been working with game developing the last 4 years. I got my big focus on 3D graphic and 2D textures. I do 3D models for company commercials.
too much bump
Well, smoothing needs a lot of work
Cool, but the ground texture look unnatural thought
Materials is way to basic and details are missing
Very good job
Thanks, every information can be found on the turbosquid link :)
nice ^^ try to increase the quality for the rendering process :)
Heh, Are you using Vray for your renderings? if not, try it. it will give it a lot more realistic feeling :)
turn down the normal map :O wow... ehm, you got it low poly and i can see that you got the unwrapping part and stuff. But dude, you gotta find some reference images for that ;) keep it up! :D
Cool :p
awesome, very good!
Really cool model! But I think that the texture could use a higher resolution :)
funny model, try make a better render :)
yaya, model looks clean and pretty good BUT textures? :P give it a shot ;)
not official, we are considering. It's really depending on how the tools will be for the engine. :)
could not agree more! this goes way beyond just modding
Awesome ! :D
This concept was actually made before Tron ;)
cool texture :p
Cool, but why use such a low poly count? what is it for ? :)
Pretty cool, when you both made the texture and the model, you might just want to go with : made by Rohail ;)
And whats up with the white outline ?
Beautiful, just like its supposed to look :D
Very good, really like the style especially in the first two tracks
It is glassy, you just can't see it because the camera is to far away from it ^^
Cool model, if the textures gets good, it will become so awesome! what program is this? ^^
What is it specifik about they eyes that need some work ? ^^
cool modeling, work on unw ^^
Cool :p
Very cool, how many polys? :p
looks great to me, might add some sracthes? :p
why green?
pretty good
like like :D

there is no smooth modifier assigned to the mesh
Cool. I agree, the design of the world is so cool! :p
i guess we got a fan of Tron :p Cool model man, very clean :D
cool, but... green? :p
please use some other shading for the render ;)
Why is this related to all those groups and engines?
more focus on model please :D

i disagree the metal look's awesome! the metal doesn't have to be all shiny silver to be metal, i really like the color for it. But it could use some scratches in bump-map thought ;)
awesome model!
well ok ;) this was done in 1 ½ hour xD
the couch has a bit much modeling. it's not just boxes. It has a lot of details if you go closer. i what IF much of is just boxes? i put the priority on the designs.

Best combo of corded base and cordless remote units that I've had. Daily use is simple and works well. Clear and intelligble audio both in transmit and receive. Features all work well, but the less used features and programming protocol is complex and takes some getting used to. Such is the price of a feature laden instrument. Many of the features must be set with the remote units, rather than the base unit. Kinda strange. Overall, it gets good marks, and I'm going to add another remote.

This phone is obsolete. The desk phone has a speaker phone which was in use over 20 years ago in their early models. It has Poor microphone pickup qualities, your voice reflects off the table it's on and then into the microphone. Lending to room echo and a distant voice sound. At night, in a pitch black room, the number 1 thru 0 keys are surrounded by bright light which was suppose to light up the numbers from behind but instead blinds you when it escapes from between the square key and phone frame making the numbers unreadable. ( like looking into a flashlight) The cordless audio sound is better than the corded phone sound (which it shouldn't be). I would end up using the cordless phone and ignoring the corded desk phone in front of me. Useless. The large call I'd screen is not easily read up close. It's designed to be read at a distance. be).

Best Thing For the Work at Home Professi
By PDH
from Buffalo Grove IL
About Me Practical, Professional
I am a work at home professional and use the base unit for my office. I use it for teleconferences and the clairity of the speaker phone has made it an incaluable tool. If I need to roam the house I just walk into another room pick up a remote handset and keep on working. The speaker and mute features on the remote handsets are great.

Feature laden and a bit complicated
By Woscar
from North Louisiana
When our previous cordless phone died, we began doing research on a suitable replacement. We found several Panasonic models at, or near, the top of most reviews. We had a very positive experience in the past with Panasonic phone equipment and these reports narrowed our selection. We were amazed by all the features that have been added since we bought our previous model. We live in a rural area with very poor phone lines, so we knew, whatever model we bought, there would be problems related to the noisy lines. Still, this phone and the cordless handsets provided better iintelligibility than we anticipated. The fact that the handsets don't require a connection to the phone line is a great added benefit to us. Our carrier said part of our problem is the result of having too many phones connected to the line. We've purchased 3 additional handsets to eliminate the need for the other phones. The added benefits of a common directory and being able to use them as intercoms are greatly appreciated. We have outbuildings and a woods, so we can keep in touch over most of the property better than with cell phones. We have added the range extender to accomplish this. The only downside to all this is that it's a bit complicated to program all the features. I find that programming through the handsets is actually easier than using the base unit. However, the 3 additional handsets are KX-TGA 659 and I have yet to figure out how to program their speed dial keys. The base unit speed dial works fine, but the procedures for programming that don't work on those handsets and there aren't any instructions with the handsets. I came to this site for further information, but have been unable to find it; hence the one star reduction for ease of use and middle rank for support. These were listed as compatible when we bought them, and in most ways they are. We like the bigger keys and display and thought we'd like the speed dial. So far, we can't enable that feature.

Built In Corner Fireplace - Replacing TV with ?
We currently have a corner fireplace that has built-in shelves on both sides. There is also a cut out area above the fireplace for our TV. My husband wants to move the TV to a different wall (hanging) which leaves an empty space above the fireplace. What in the world do you put there to hide the opening? Wall art? Any ideas or inspiration pictures would be greatly appreciated.
This is the only photo I have of the fireplace (taken to show the tile, which is also getting replaced to a multi-color slate).
This is the only other photo I have available right now. Not sure if you can tell, but the area behind the TV is deep and goes back into a V (all the way to the wall).
I would love to put some larger hurricanes with candles up there or maybe some art work? Would you put some sort of wood "backing" to fill the area (so you can't see clear back in there)?
It's actually an interesting space. At Christmas, you could put a large Poinsettia, or a small Christmas tree. Rest of the year you could have a vase with large branches with berries or something in there.
I might have two pieces of triangular glass cut and mount them on oak braces and use for display just like the side shelves. I'm afraid putting something tall or over scale in their to fill the space like plants or hurricanes won't look proportionate with the objects on the other shelves.

BF2 delayed, DICE in the bag
EA yesterday unveiled their latest quarterly financial results, and predictably it was more good news for the world's largest games publisher. Amid the balance sheets and unsurprising optimism, there was also a few details on - amazingly - videogames... because apparently that is still what it's all about. Specifically, we hear word that Battlefield 2 has been delayed, and will now be with us between April and June - rather than the March date previously mooted. Medal of Honour: Dogs of War will also be released during the same period.
In more business-centred titillation, EA have finally got their claws well and truly into Battlefield developers Digital Illusions CE (DICE), the new statement confirming that whilst the studio hasn't been acquired outright, a controlling stake of 59.8% is in the bag. A few rebellious shareholders apparently put pay to EA's hopes of total domination, though we imagine this can't be far off, and EA does have the option of raising their stake to over 67% at a later date. More Battlefield games are to be expected, we think.

By car, Krakow
11 Reviews
11 Reviews
I rented a car for just 3 days. Was suppose to be 6 but i cut it down to 3 days because i had issues with my GPS not working ( my own GPS). I had option to rent one which i should have done. Anyway, i rented a ford focus from Joka. The people who work there speak good English and are available 24/7. The car was a nice car, and not expensive either ( it averaged about $ 90 after factoring in them having to refuel it for me a bit as well as a fee to pick it up in wroclaw when i was originally suppose to return it to warsaw). They were very helpful and understanding when i returned car early. The car itself was in great condition, rode nicely, had pretty good power for a smaller car. I would recommend Joka because the price was good, their krakow location was great, easy to get to ( i walked from my hotel , hotel wiepole).
Hi, Im writing to share our opinion about visiting Polska and Krakow. We decided to rent a car in polish company NFM Rent A Car. We didn't have too much time to see all this lovely places. We took the car at airport, they delivered it for free.
We get brand new Ford Focus with air-conditioning and etc. After three days in Krakow we went to see Auschwitz and then to Zakopane. Roads in Poland are not as bad as someone wrote. GPS saved our time few times, it's for free so really worth to take. In the city center you must remember to buy a parking ticket. We forgot and we get punishment :)
After few days at south of Poland we went to Warsaw. They have office there so they came to our hotel to take the car. Service was really helpful and explained us how to get to airport.
I think it was the best way to see Krakow and country. For sure it was the cheapest way. Prices are really fine, much lower than at the airport. I'm not sure, but it was about 30 euro per day. Also You don't have to worry that you will miss your train and you can go wherever You want :)
Next time I will hire car for sure. I have their mobile: 0048 782 052 130
We rented a car for a trip into the Tatra Mountains while we were in Krakow. We used Joka, a local Polish rental car company. They are located in central Krakow, near both the old town and Kazimierz, and have employees that speak English. They delivered the car to our hotel and had an attended parking lot at which we were able to drop the car off after their office closed for the day. The car that we rented, an Opel Vectra, was clean and in good mechanical working order.
A hire car is useful for getting around some of the sights near Krakow including Tarnow, Krosno, Wieliczka Salt Mine and Auschwitz, amongst others. A SatNav is also useful to assist in getting around locations.
We visited in June 2010 when Poland was experiencing some significant flooding in the southwest, having the SatNav meant that we were able to quickly re-calculate routes when we encountered closed roads.
This is also a great option if you are travelling as a group; it gives you the freedom of being able to stop wherever you see something you want to stop at and is cheaper than paying individual fares for public transport to the various places you might want to go.
After Euromeet in Krakow, and our trip to Lviv 'The English Roses' had a road trip planned! Originally, we'd planned to go by hire car to Ukraine, but found out that it's not possible to cross the Polish/Ukranian border by Hire Car!
Plan B was on our return from Ukraine, we'd head up to Gdansk - time and the floods in Poland made us rethink-so plan C was to head to Zakapane, then Slovakia, Czech Republic and then back to Poland, to Wroclaw, so that Gilly and I could fly back to Liverpool, and SueT and poons would spend a few more days in Poland, before flying back from Krakow (In the end they flew from Poznan - yes we are flexible travelers!)
SueT and poons booked the hire car online, which we picked up from Krakow airport.
I think the company we used was ArgusRentals
There was a bit of confusion as to which desk we should collect our documents etc from - luckily poons was in control, and we were soon picking up the keys for our vehicle, from the Europcar desk. Apparently this company searches for the best deal from the car hire companies based in the place you want to hire.
We had a full tank of petrol, snacks, drinks, music and Sat Nav....Lets Goooooo!............SueT and poons shared the driving. (Thanks girls!!)
When SueT worked out the cost for each of us, it came to £72 each for the 6 days.
The car was in good condition, and was comfortable enough for us (we had packed with the possible limitations of the boot size in mind), with plenty of leg room, and A/C - although this didn't always reach the back seat passengers.
poons had borrowed a tom-tom, which was invaluable during our trip-I've never seen the point for myself of buying one for driving in the UK, but would certainly have one for Poland etc.
Apart from driving on the right hand side, drivers are required by law to have their headlights on both day and night. Use of mobiles is forbidden, unless hands free set is used. Seat belts are compulsory, and children under 10 yrs are forbidden to sit in the front seat.
For more rules -
A great experience!
One of the best way to get to Krakow from the airport is to reserve a shuttle that will pick you up from the airport and take you to Krakow. They have two prices depending on the zone of travel. If you are staying anywhere inside of the center (the center is basically surrounded by a park that looks like a circle on the map) it will cost 60 zloty for up to 4 people. Going by ($1 = 3 zloty) it is not a bad deal. It is one of the cheapest transfers that we've seen. If you are going to zone B, it will cost you 70 zloty for up to 4 people which is still cheap.
The company is KrakowShuttle and you can find them on the website below. They also have other services like tours to multiple destinations around Krakow, but they are most expensive and it is A LOT cheaper to just take the train.
Krakow has the same traffic problems as any other European metropolis. Too many cars and too less parking lots. in the city you are not allowed to park your car. So you better park it in the suburbs and take the tram or bus to the centre.
Driving in Krakow is no problem - excellent road signs guide you in the centre and then back to the motorway.
Generally road surfaces in Poland are rather miserable. The same is in Krakow, although in some place there are new ones.
Driving in Krakow may be a bit difficult, because of narrow, often one way, streets in the Old Town, many zones close for cars, big trafic jams and limited parking places. You can buy tickets for the parking zone at the special sellers wearing flaring yellow vests. Today it costs about 3 zloties for 1 hour.
On the other hand the authorities have recently put on some new guide-posts, which can make you driving easier. Actually most of them have only Polish version (except for
"See you again" on the toll-gates ;-), but they have also graphic symbols, so you can easy understand them (remember that "Stare Miasto" = "Old Town", all the others are more simple).
Krakow is located on the crossword of the two international roads:
1. west-east E-40: Calais (France) - Brussels (Belgium) - Dresden (Germany) - Wroclaw (Poland) - Krakow - Rzeszow (Poland) - Lvov - Kiev (Ukraine);
2. north-south E-77: Gdansk - Warsaw - Krakow - Ruzomberok (Slovakia) - Budapest (Hungary)
There is a comfortable toll highway westwards of Krakow to Katowice (road A-4 = E-40). You must pay 5 PLN at the entrance toll gate and the next 5 PLN at the exit toll gate (for a car, 1Euro=1US$=4 PLN - approx.) driving to/from Katowice.
The road to Warsaw (E-77) is sometimes jammed and not so comfortable; there is no highway to/from Warsaw, just "normal" road full of trucks some of which are too old to be used, I suppose = too slow :-(((.
A little better (with additional lanes at some segments) is road eastwards towards Rzeszow (E-40).
To the south (direction Chyzne=border crossing point to Slovakia or Zakopane) there is the dual divided carriageway to Myslenice (about 30 km = 19 mi) and then "normal" mountaineous road = slow traffic and hazardeous overtaking of slow trucks.
Attention: entry to Krakow on Sunday afternoon and evening from south and east, seldom from west/north in summer (June-August) maybe complitely jammed - sometimes it can take even more then 1-2 hours to get to the city, although there are 3-4 lines in each direction on the suburbs of Krakow; hmm... you must be more patient then trying to use new VT after the relaunch :-).
Using the little electric cars which you find on the old market square to see Krakow is a really novel way of doing it, plus you are not poluting the air.
You might see these "signs" by the side of the road. I have no idea what they are but thought they were interesting!

Opinions Please
I live in the St. Cloud area and have discovered my love for playing in the dirt. This summer a friend of mine asked me to come to her new home and look at her gardens to help her sort out what was a plant and a weed, she said she called around for help with this, but the cheapest she could get it done was $100 just for someone to come out.
After a few days of helping her weed, she thought it would be fun to start our own business doing just this...weeding, watering, mulching, planting, and some designing.
We are now called the Garden Geeks. We have never advertised (yet)but have already had a few people that want us to work for them. Some have bad backs and others just either have no time or no clue.
What do you Minnesotans think...do you think this will work? Any ideas or suggestions? Would love some advise!
Thanks for the links...and sorry you thought this was an Ad. I am only doing it my neighborhood and everyone on here loves to garden so this would be a silly place to run an ad. :o)
I really do just want peoples opinions as so many here on gardenweb have been so wonderful to me. Again, thanks for the links and so sorry if I stepped on any toes.
$100 isn't that expensive, IMO. Sure he/she may only spend a couple hours at the site, but there is time to and from, gas money, scheduling time (and often rescheduling because people don't seem to consider this a business, and seem to think canceling is inconsequential), etc.
If you are going to incorporate, or start a business on paper, I'll bet "Garden Geeks" is already taken. I know someone who's name is Garden Geek on a garden forum like this.
(Who would have thought there would be another Leftwood? I tried to sign on in Yahoo groups as Leftwood years ago, but it was already taken!)
When you say you've discovered gardening, it's hard to tell how long you've been gardening, or what kind of background you have. Weeding doesn't take too much training for monetary compensation, but landscaping, designing, pruning . . . excuse me for being such a stickler. Those who have gotten to know me on this forum already know I can be picky. Excepting the spammers, people here are pretty honest.
So, a really snazzy name in my opinion, Garden Geeks. It's all in the advertising. Just be true to yourself.
It does appear that the name "Garden Geeks" is still available with the Minnesota Secretary of State. If you are wanting to use the name, please be aware that you must either file a certificate of assumed name with the Secretary of State or otherwise create a business entity with the name (as alluded to by Leftwood). There are basic forms that can be downloaded directly from the Secretary of State's website at:
I say GO FOR IT!!!
Have fun! Learn - enjoy and stick with people you know and trust, and who know and trust you both for the first few go rounds this year. See if this is something you could stay with for a few years. You will never know unless you try!
Then, this winter, learn about setting up a business- State- Federal- County and City rules will apply. Know what laws and rules may affect you, even if you never go as far as setting up a business. Find out if liability may be an issue- and how big an issue it may be. Will you need insurance? Will you need $$$ for tools? An accountant? A lawyer for contracts? Will you be an S-Corp? What business structure works best for you both? Can you find labor for those heavy muscle jobs- or experienced labor for the detailed jobs- Tree cutters- paver layers- irrigation specialists- and the like. Do you need to learn more about plants and gardening? Would you consider going back to school and becoming a master gardener, a horticulturist? Talk to others in the trade. Look for mentors. Then, after you have studied the details, decide if you have the desire to draw up a five year plan- and follow it.
This is a big decision- with some big rewards- but working for your self is also a big responsibility, and not easily achieved. If you have families- consider their needs into the mix- as your new business WILL be "the new baby" in the house and will suck up most of your time and energy.
Will your passion for what you will be doing sustain you through the rest of what needs to be done to do it right? You may never know- unless you try.
I say go for it! Give it your best shot!
It sounds like what you are offering is a "garden care/maintenance service" as opposed to the more traditional "lawn care/maintenance service" (keep the weeds out/make the garden look neat and tidy, etc).
There is also the "geek squad" element to it:
"we come to you"
"we quickly, efficiently solve your garden dilemmas"
"we are the people you call when you just have a small problem/maintenance issues-and aren't in need of comphrensive landscaping/design services"
"our prices are reasonable and our rates are easy to understand"
I think this is a great idea-I've thought about doing something similar myself. I know St. Cloud somewhat (have relatives there) - and I think your target market would probably be folks who like buying lots of beautiful plants at Thomsens-but don't have the time/energy/expertise to keep their garden visions alive.
As for accounting-having run two small businesses with partners myself-my advice is follow the K.I.S.S. route(keep it simple stupid) At most, you might want to form an llc (limited liability corp) just to protect yourselves from a liability standpoint. Try to keep your business accounting/structure as SIMPLE as possible at first. Talk to an accountant friend/tax preparer about the easiest structure for you and your partner to set up and keep going-you don't want to spend all your money/time on the accounting side of things.
Good gardening coach website
Here is a link that might be useful: Gardening Coach Susan Harris
Distantkin, No indeed NOT it didn't strike me as a "thinly disguised ad" it sounded just as you intended it to sound like. A VERY GOOD IDEA that you are excited about. There is no need to take life so seriously that you forget to experience the joy around you.

In 1971, American country singer John Denver released a song titled Take Me Home, Country Road, which immortalised the state, West Virginia, as a place that feels like heaven because of its beauty.
Known for its mountains and diverse topography which yields picturesque sceneries, the state unfortunately leads Forbes Magazine's list of top 5 most stressful states.
The basis of Forbes in listing West Virginia as the most stressful among the 50 states is the yearly Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index tracks that monitors stress levels of Americans. They survey covered 350,000 respondents over 12 months and were asked the question: "Did you feel stressed during a lot of the day yesterday?"
About 47.1 per cent of West Virginians said yes to that question, largely attributed to the state's unemployment rate of 8.2 per cent as of October 2011, which is a big turnaround from the pre-2008 global financial crisis days when West Virginia was one of only four U.S. states with a surplus state budget.
Here is the complete list of the top 5 most stressful and least stressful states and the percentage of residents who felt stressed living in their areas.
Most Stressful
1. West Virginia - 47.1%
2. Rhode Island - 46.3%
3. Kentucky - 44.8%
4. Utah - 44.6%
5. Massachusetts - 43.4%
Least Stressful
1. Hawaii - 32.1%
2. Louisiana - 37.6%
3. Mississippi - 37.9%
4. Iowa - 38.1%
5. Wyoming - 38.6%
Gallup noted that Hawaii has been topping the least stress level in the past five years. With the sea by their side, coconut trees and other beachside attractions 24/7, plus its tropical weather, it is small wonder that Hawaii residents hardly feel any stress living in the Pacific isles.
If West Virginians have John Denver's songs, Hawaiians, in turn, have Elvis Presley's Blue Hawaii proclaiming the island's allure.
West Virginians' perception of stress, however, does not change the fact that the state is a beautiful place, as proven by the song becoming #2 in U.S. Billboard Hot 100, and it was adopted by the West Virginia University as its theme song.
