The White House does not support blowing up planets
Saturday - 1/12/2013, 12:02am EST
Rachel Nania, wtop.com
WASHINGTON - On Jan. 11, the White House responded to a petition posted on its website in regards to securing funds to construct a Death Star.
The official letter, titled "This is not the Petition Response You're Looking For," highlights three key reasons why it is not feasible for the federal government to fund a Death Star.
First, the response from petitions.whitehouse.gov says that construction of a Death Star is estimated to cost more than $850,000,000,000,000,000, a number cited from a student-run economics blog at Lehigh University.
"We're working hard to reduce the deficit, not expand it," says Paul Shawcross, the letter's author and chief of the Science and Space Branch at the White House Office of Management and Budget.
Second, the letter states that the Administration does not support blowing up planets. Rather, the country prefers to explore them.
"We are discovering hundreds of new planets in other star systems and building a much more powerful successor to the Hubble Space Telescope that will see back to the early days of the universe," Shawcross says in the letter.
For his third point, Shawcross flexes his "Star Wars" knowledge.
"Why would we spend countless taxpayer dollars on a Death Star with a fundamental flaw that can be exploited by a one-man starship?" he asks.
The letter also states that the U.S. already has something large floating in the sky - the International Space Station - and that is enough.
The original petition to build a Death Star was created on Nov. 14, 2012 and received 34,435 signatures.
The petition argued that funneling defense resources into a "space- superiority platform and weapon system" could increase domestic jobs in construction, space exploration and engineering.
Shawcross, instead, encourages the author to pursue a career in a science or technology-related field and contribute to the future of space.
"The Force will be with us," he says. "Remember, the Death Star's power to destroy a planet, or even a whole star system, is insignificant next to the power of the Force."

Mrs Make sure that you follow exact instructions on timing when to open the matress and to let it lay unused for 48 huors, or it may not gain it's full firmness. If you eventually will give it 48 hours it will "inflate" than. In the begginig (first few days) I was not happy with it( not firm enough), as i let it lay unused for 48 hours, than it got firmer, I love it.I had it for 7 mos. Still love it, it is still in original shape.

Phenomenal! First off, I just want to say that like many of the other reviewers here my husband and I were weary of purchasing a mattress, let alone a memory foam mattress, over the internet with no way to test it. We decided that since it was relatively cheap, we'd go ahead and try it. We could not be happier! This mattress is exactly as it's described. It is very, very comfortable. We did wait the 48 hours to let the bed air out like the product says to. We didn't want to take any chances on messing it up or ruining it. We never did get the full 14 inches, but we're less than a quarter inch from it, so it's no big deal. The mattress does come with a mattress cover, but it's not a traditional one. It's more like a couch cushion cover and I'm assuming it is zipped up somewhere on the side, but we could never find it to take it off, but it's quilted and very soft. It's softer than our sheets. We still went ahead and bought a waterproof mattress cover because we have two large dogs and anything could happen. Of course, everyone's opinion of "medium firm" differs, but for me it is still pretty darn firm. I sink into it, but not as much as I would like but it is okay because I do tend to have lower back pain as well as shoulder pain. Since sleeping on this mattress I can honestly say that my back and shoulder have not bothered me. I like to also sleep on my side and stomach (I am not a back sleeper) and it is wonderful. :-) My husband sleeps on all sides including his back and he loves it. Like most memory foam mattress' you do tend to get really warm. If you tend to have hot flashes, I would not recommend a memory foam mattress. However, since I get really cold a lot this is perfect for me. I stay warm and sleep like I have never slept before. It is so hard for me to actually get up in the morning and start my day. I am so glad we decided to purchase this mattress. It is wonderful and now my husband and I can sleep in the positions most comfortable to us without bumping or kneeing each other at night like we did in our old pillow top Queen.

Years of Backaches GONE! I shopped mattresses for two months locally and couldn't believe how expensive they were. I have back problems and was leaning towards the memory foam mattress. Then I received the Overstock email featuring the mattress sale and saw this mattress. I was hesitant to buy because of three things: 1 - the price was so affordable making me question quality; 2 - I knew I could not handle a firm mattress and 3 - I worried that it would be hot. DO NOT WORRY. After studying the reviews closely I decided to order and I have not had one bit of buyers remorse. It is basically shrink wrapped and compressed and expands when you open it. You will need two people to maneuver it unless you are really strong and have plenty of room. Once in place simply unroll, open and voila! It expands into a wonderful mattress. The quality of this mattress is excellent. It is soft enough that it keeps pressure off of my shoulders and hips and firm enough to support my back without causing pain in the morning. Medium Firm is accurate. There is a slight odor at first but it was gone completely within one week. I slept on it the first night but I would recommend waiting at least 24 hours to let it completely expand. That also allows it to air longer before covering it with sheets. It sleeps cool, for women with hot flashes and night sweats (been there) you need not worry. If you are considering a memory foam mattress, I would not hesitate to recommend this one. As a matter of fact, I have to several people.

Great product for the price! I wanted to wait a while before I put up my review of this bed. I wanted to sleep on it for a while and then make my review. And my review is.....this is great! I owned a higher end Tempurpedic at one time before, and wanted to get another bed but just didn't want to pay the outrageous prices of the Tempurpedic brandname. I searched Overstock for quite some time and finally came across this bed. I read the reviews and decided on purchasing it. The bed arrived quickly and well packaged. Like many of the reviews before me, it did have a strong chemical odor which did last for about two weeks, but that was to be expected. I unpackaged the bed and it rose to almost it's complete size within four hours. I did notice that the bed was a bit harder at first but that mellowed out and got better with the week following. This bed is great for someone who likes the memory foam mattresses but doesn't like them super stiff. It is a great balance of firm and soft. It is soft, but definitely not too soft. The bed is close to 15" when fully expanded. We actually use it on a platform bed and it works great! This is a great buy and well worth the money! Good job Overstock!

Questions & Answers
Hello Chrissiec, we offer a comfortable set that will fit this mattress, Item 17111962. Thank you for shopping with us.
Why did you choose this product?
Reviews and price! Fabulous!
I choose it because it was similar to what I am looking for in a Mattress. I never order a mattress on-line and I hope that I will be pleased on my decision.
I've been pricing memory foam mattresses and comparing different products. I knew I wanted a medium firm, not too hard and not too soft. I knew I didn't want the gel infused mattress, because I tested them at a brick and mortar store and I prefer a warm bed. I wanted a thicker mattress as compared to the 8 or 10 inch mattresses. This seemed like a good buy and it needed to be priced right to entice an online purchase from me. Also, I currently own a queen size bed and needed a larger mattress to share with my husband and pets.
I brought one from you a few years ago and needed a new one for another bedroom
Price, reviews
I have an adjustable base, and want to know if a daily raising and lowering of the frame under thus mattress would damage it.
No, this mattress is solid memory foam. It is very well made and feels just like a heavy mattress.
how long can a memory foam mattress be in the box if its a presents
Hello shermanator, we recommend moving from package within 72 hours to maximize expansion. If not possible, after unwrapping allow 48 hours for product to return to original shape. Thanks for shopping with us.
What is the weight???
Hello bargainseekinglady39886729, this mattress is approximately 144 pounds. Thank you for shopping with us!
When I buy this mattress is it just the mattress or does it come with the bottom buttress too
Hello nena, this is just the mattress. Have a great day!
Although it is just a mattress it is designed not to need a box spring foundation like a typical mattress would as it has internal support. Although we still used our old box springs with this the only benefit was to have a very high leveled bed.
Do you need a mattress box with this bed?
Hello ajv1982, a mattress box is not required for this foam mattress because it is already so thick. You can most certainly use one if you prefer to. Thank you for shopping with us!
Is this mattress packaged upon purchase or is it pre packaged?
Hello cmcg16, this item is pre-packaged. I hope this helps. Please let us know if you have any additional questions. Thank you for shopping with us!
Is this mattress comfortable and properly supported with a metal or steel platform frame?
Hello Cmcg16, this mattress is comfortable and would be supported well with a platform bed. Thank you for shopping with us! TB
Is this mattress an Eastern King?
Foam Mattresses sag in the middle after a few months! Don't do it.
Hello, yes, this is an Eastern King which is 76 inches wide by 80 inches long. Thank you for shopping with us! Rochelle B
Does this mattress have some bend or give after you take out of the package? We need to be able to get it through a somewhat narrow stairwell with a tight turn at the top. We've been told a regular double mattress makes it fine, but we're really wanting a king and thinking memory foam might solve our dilemma.
Hello sparrow42, This product arrives very tightly packed and has the following dimensions upon arrival: 22 inches x 23 inches x 42.5 inches. You will need to unwrap and allow 48 hours for this product to return to its original shape but this should solve your problem! Thank you for shopping with us. Vicki H
i recommend opening the box in the room it will be in! it is heavier than you think
I would really recommend opening in the room you are planning on putting it in. It is an awesome mattress but it is heavy. I moved my livingroom furniture out of the way and opened it there. It took my grandson and 2 of his friends to just get it into my bedroom.
This mattress is the perfect solution to your issue. Leave it packaged and carry it to its final destination. Open up and remove all wrapping in room it is to be used in.
How warm do you get on this mattress. First memory foam we had years ago got very warm, we couldn't sleep thru the night, have they gotten any better? Thanks
Hello 55nina, Memory foam does have a tendency to hold in the heat. You may want to look at the gel memory foam mattress options which are meant to be cooler. Thanks for shopping with us. Jennifer E
This mattress is very comfortable to me. I never get too warm in it. However, before this mattress, I slept on a heated waterbed mattress for over 30 years. So, to me, this is very comfortable.
We have aired our matress out for over 72 hours, can you recommend a way to deminish this unrelentingly awful smell??? It smells like a mixture of neoprene, plastic and paint. Please help...Sleepless in Houston.
Hello, sleeplessnhouston. I'm sorry to hear about this. Off-gassing is very common in memory foam mattresses, and in most cases it will dissipate after airing the mattress for a few days, though it can take longer, even up to two weeks. Please don't hesitate to contact us if the problem persists, and we will happily assist you. Thank you for shopping with us.
Our mattress did not have this problem.
The salesman at the furniture store told us to walk on our memory foam mattresses with socks on, all over. It helps the smell go away faster. My son has one and it smelled funny for about a month
our mattress did not have this problem
What is the life expectancy of the memory foam compared to the 8yrs. of a coil spring mattress?
Most memory foam beds have a 20 year life span, at minimum I would say 15
I dont have a direct answer to this question but we have had ours for a little over two years ans it is still great, Im not sure I will ever buy another mattress again.
How much does this mattress weigh?
117 pounds. Is very heavy but smaller than final size when in box.
110 Pounds when it was shipped to me
Approximately 120 lbs
If I purchased this mattress could I place directly on your guys "DuraBed Steel Foldable Platform"? Since no box spring is needed...
Hello oregondaddy, that should not be a problem. If you have any additional questions please feel free to let us know. Thank you for shopping with us!.
Does this come with a matching box spring?
No it doesn't. Memory foam mattresses of this density do not require a boxspring.
how many pound after turn back to original shape
Hello mlhin, This product is shipped tightly and will need to be allowed 48 hours to return back to the original shape. Hope this information helps. Thank you for shopping with us!
Does this mattress have a manufacturer's warranty? If so, how long?
Hello sharonpr, This item unfortunately does not have a manufacturers warranty, however you do have the option to purchase an additional 10 year mattress service plan that covers all accidental damage from delivery. Hope this was helpful! Thank you for shopping with us.

The 2009 Linux Graphics Survey is planned to get underway on the 1st of November. Most of the questions have been finalized already, but does anyone have any compelling questions they would like to know from the Linux user community about graphics? If you have any, get the questions in ASAP.
Last year's survey: http://www.phoronix.com/vr.php?view=13284
Since the relationship between answers is important (eg you use *this* hardware for *these* activities but *that* hardware for *those* activities) would it make sense to ask readers to fill out the survey once for each system ?
What video outputs do you have / what video outputs do you use?
I'd like to see the following questions.
Monitor setup
- Single display
- Multi-display
- xinerama
- randr 1.2
- 2560x1600 +
- 1600x1200-2560x1600
- 1280x1024-1600x1200
- 1280x1024-
- Multi-GPU in Crossfire
- Multi-GPU in Multi-head
- Multi-GPU in Multi-head+Xinerama
For the "Which video driver" question, I would like to see an option for the X.org state tracker ("modesetting" driver)
Also I build all my packages from source (xf86-video-ati and mesa from git) as I use Gentoo. So should I check "Using the distribution-supplied driver or from a package repository" or "Building from source using git" or both?
Maybe the "building from source" option should read "building from upstream source" for clarity ?
"Note: Participants should fill out this form once for each Linux system they use. If a question or none of the options apply, you can leave the question blank."
I can't read...
So, I filled it in once, for two systems. Sorry, I didn't see that text until I already had hit the send button.

Once I get my crap hardware updated, this will be the first thing that gets installed. Might send them the money I had set aside for UT3 too.
Phoronix: Nexuiz 2.5 Raises The Bar For Open-Source Gaming
Nearly a year ago Nexuiz 2.4 was released and it offered impressive graphics along with a new menu design, improved networking performance, reduced memory usage, and many other enhancements to this open-source game. The developers behind this first person shooter have now outdone themselves again with the release of Nexuiz 2.5. This latest release of Nexuiz brings even better graphics capabilities along with a new HUD, network communication improvements that cut the bandwidth in half, smarter bots, even better graphics, and several new maps. In total more than 3,000 changes make up Nexuiz 2.5!
Those screenshots look amazing.

Any Jaunty packages?
Perfect timing, Nexuiz 2.5 is now in Git for Phoronix Test Suite 1.8!
A really good update. Everything looks so much better. Of course, the increased eye candy means a more hungry game in terms of GPU; my demo runs decreased 10fps on average (more than worth it in my opinion). Very well done game.
Yay! One of the most addictive games ever!
Nice improvement over 2.4 but that engine really could use Id Tech 4 to take it to the next level. No matter how much they improve the Darkplaces engine (based on the old quake 1 engine), it's technology is getting long in the tooth and all the fancy textures and lighting they add still doesn't improve the "straight as a ruler look" gameplay maps.

Once again at Tony G's. home in Cranston, RI, 1000 AM, 15 JAN 11. Thought is to sample global road kill varieties, maybe starting with a Mexican appetizer (armadillo in Mezcal spiked pico de gallo). The entree could be of Chinese origin (perhaps truck flattened piggy lovingly roasted and drizzled with a box turtle infused hoisin sauce). The finish could perhaps be a dessert of legendary tube steaks, hand cased with beaks and claws gathered near Wright's Chicken Farm along RI Rt. 102. Just suggestions. We'll decide once we figure out that we're hungry! Afterward, a visit to a classy lingerie outlet?
Take care,

text: There are no translations available. Homeopathic Materia Medica by FarringtonIPECACUANHA(ip)IPECACUANHA CEPHAELIS is a small shrub growing in Brazil. It is bitter, acrid, and nauseous, and possesses a peculiar odor, which, in some, excites sneezing, and even asthma. In many cases the conjunctivae are injected, with puffiness under the eyes, profuse coryza, and tension over the eyes. Ipecacuanha contains as its active principle a substance called EMETIN, which gives to the drug its property of producing vomiting. It also contains an acid, called Ipecacuanhic acid, and a small quantity of a foetid volatile oil. This latter constituent probably has something to do with the action of the drug on the pneumogastric nerve, and its consequent use in the treatment of asthma. Ipecacuanha is easily studied. It acts upon the nerves (especially the pneumogastric) and mucous membranes. It has been employed by allopathic physicians as an antispasmodic in asthma, and in pulmonary catarrhs. In the latter class of troubles it is used to provoke vomiting, and, of course, gives temporary relief. Of the mucous membranes it seems to have a special affinity for those lining the bronchial tubes and alimentary canal. One of the most prominent features of this drug is its property of producing nausea, and subsequently vomiting. So prominent is this symptom, that you will find it present in almost all the cases in which Ipecacuanha is required. Thus you will find Ipecacuanha indicated in headaches. These are of rheumatic origin. The characteristic sensation is a pain as if the head or bones of the head were bruised or crushed, this feeling seeming to go down into the root of the tongue. This headache is accompanied by nausea and vomiting. It may also be used in unilateral sick-headaches, with deathly nausea. In these cases, the face is usually pale, blue rings surround the eyes, and the expression about the mouth betrays the intensity of the nausea. Now these symptoms are not so necessarily present in the adult as they are in the child. You see the corners of the child's mouth drawn, and a line which extends from the alae of the nose to the corners of the mouth, giving to the child an expression of nausea, and at once suggesting to your mind such remedies as IPECACUANHA, ANTIMONIUM TARTARICUM, and AETHUSA CYNAPIUM. In that bursting headache of Ipecacuanha compare VERATRUM ALBUM, which has that bruised feeling here and there in the brain. There is still another drug which has that symptom, and that is PTELEA. The gastric symptoms of Ipecacuanha in addition to those already mentioned, are such as would call for the exhibition of this drug after indulgence in rich food, as pastry, pork, fruits, candy, ice-cream, etc. These gastric symptoms which I have just given you for Ipecacuanha should be compared with those of three other remedies, the most important of which is PULSATILLA. You will at once recognize the similarities between the two drugs. They are both useful for gastric disturbances caused by indulgence in mixed diet, pastry, ice-cream, pork, fatty food, etc. Pulsatilla may be considered the better remedy of the two, when the stomach yet contains the food which disagrees, while Ipecacuanha is better when the stomach is empty and the effects of the indulgence only, remain. The best distinction between the two remedies, however, lies in the condition of the tongue. In Ipecacuanha, the tongue is clean or only slightly coated, whereas in Pulsatilla, the tongue is almost always foul, white or yellow with a very disagreeable taste in the mouth. ARSENICUM must follow or supplant Ipecacuanha when an actual catarrh of the stomach has been produced by indigestible food, especially after sudden chilling of the stomach with ice-cream or ice-water. There are vomiting, burning pains in the stomach, diarrhoea, restlessness, etc. ANTIMONIUM CRUDUM, like Ipecacuanha, is suitable for gastric catarrh, following a mixed diet of pastry, etc. The tongue is thickly coated white as if it had been whitewashed. Ipecacuanha may even be indicated when, in the case of children, indulgence in rich food has produced convulsions. Colic may occur and this is of a griping character. Either the pain is situated about the umbilicus as though a hand were tightly clutching the intestines; or the colic consists of cutting pains which shoot across the abdomen from left to right. The stools are either green as in diarrhoea of infants or they are yellow and liquid, and covered with mucus and blood. Sometimes, they have a fermented appearance and look like molasses. That is as good a comparison as I can give you; the stool looks just like molasses when it is frothy. At other times, the stools are black from admixture of bile. Some of these diarrhoeas are associated with tenesmus, indicating catarrh of the lining membrane of the bowels. Ipecacuanha you will find frequently indicated in the commencement of cholera infantum. You find present pallor of the face with the blue rings around the eyes, the fontanelles are still open, showing defective nutrition ; the child may have nose-bleed with the pale face; it is drowsy with starting and jerking of the muscles during sleep. The child is subject to frequent attacks of nose-bleed. The condition already simulates that of hydrocephaloid. You must not think because Ipecacuanha is wedded so closely to stomach symptoms, that it cannot be indicated in this reflex cerebral state. You will find nausea and even vomiting usually present. The child eats or drinks and vomits what it has taken almost immediately afterwards. Particularly is Ipecacuanha indicated in these cases as a remedy preceding the exhibition of ARSENICUM. Arsenicum is complementary to Ipecacuanha in these abdominal affections. In some of these cases of gastro-intestinal troubles in children it will be your misfortune to have Ipecacuanha and the other remedies just mentioned to fail. Then it will be well for you to bear in mind the following remedies, which, though infrequently indicated, may prove themselves to be of inestimable value. OENOTHERA BIENNIS, the evening primrose, common in fields and waste places, is an invaluable remedy in exhausting, watery diarrhoea. It does not act, as has been suggested, as an astringent, by its tannic acid, but is a genuine homeopathic remedy, producing and curing diarrhoea. The evacuations are without effort, and are accompanied by nervous exhaustion, and even with incipient hydrocephaloid. GNAPHALIUM causes a watery, offensive morning diarrhoea, which repeats itself often during the day. The provers were children, and well have they portrayed a very common group of cholera infantum symptoms. They had rumbling in the bowels, colicky pains, and were, at the same time, cross and irritable. The urine was scanty, and the appetite and taste were lost. A writer in the HOMEOPATH used this drug very successfully last summer, and Dr. Hale refers to it in his Therapeutics. GERANIUM MACULATUM is also a successful baby's remedy. Dr. Hale devotes eight pages to Geranium and other astringents, dividing their action according to his rule of primary and secondary symptoms, and deducing thence two propositions for use in practice. The provings, brief though they are, help us in the choice of the drug: constant desire to go to stool, with inability for some time to pass any faecal matter, then the bowels move without pain or effort. Mouth dry, tip of tongue burning. Allopaths use it as an astringent. PAUTTINIA SORBILIS has been suggested for diarrhoea which is green and profuse, but odorless. OPUNTIA comes to us recommended by so careful an observer—Dr. Burdick—that, although I have not used it, I do not hesitate to present it anew. Nausea from stomach to bowels; feels as if the bowels were settled down into the lower abdomen (confirmed in adults). In infants we may perhaps look to this drug when the lower part of the abdomen is the seat of disease, as this seems to be its characteristic seat of attack. NUPHAR LUTEUM causes a yellow diarrhoea, worse in the morning, either with colic or painless. It has been been employed for diarrhoea during typhoid, and indeed seems to cause nervous weakness. Whether it will be of service for infants remains to be seen. We should look to it when Gamboge, Chelidonium, etc., fail, and when exhaustion is a prominent attendant. KALI BROMATUM has been several times given successfully in cholera infantum when there were great prostration, cool surface and symptoms of hydrocephaloid. Compare Cinchona (incipient hydrocephaloid, following prolonged or oft-repeated diarrhoeic discharge), Calcarea phos., Carbo veg., Veratrum album, Camphor, etc. Another effect of Ipecacuanha and one which is just as characteristic as its action on the bowels, is its action on the mucous membrane of the respiratory tract. Thus it may be used in coryza. The nose feels as if stuffed up, often there is epistaxis, loss of smell, nausea and some catarrh of the bronchial mucous membrane. You may compare here ALLIUM CEPA, which is an excellent remedy for simple nasal catarrh when the nasal secretion is watery and acrid. Lachrymation is mild. There are, rough raw feeling in the throat and cough provoked by tickling in the larynx. I may say in qualifying these symptoms of Allium, that although it quickly stops the nasal catarrh, it seems to drive the trouble to the chest. PHOSPHORUS seems to stop this action of Cepa. EUPHRASIA is very similar to Cepa in nasal catarrh. Here, however we have excoriating lachrymation and bland nasal discharge. ARSENICUM follows Ipecacuanha, in the catarrhs of fat, chubby children. Affecting prominently, as Ipecacuanha does, the pneumogastric nerves, we would expect it to be useful in affections which involve these nerves, as asthma, in which disease it is indicated when there is a sensation as of constriction of the chest worse from the least motion. The patient coughs and you hear the rattling of mucus in the chest, yet none is expectorated. Especially will you find this kind of asthma calling for Ipecacuanha in stout persons of lax fibre, either adult or child, and who are especially sensitive to a warm moist atmosphere. Very similar to Ipecacuanha in asthma is ARSENICUM, which often follows it well either in catarrhal or nervous asthma. CUPRUM is also useful in asthma when the spasmodic element predominates. The face gets blue; there is constriction of the throat; the patient almost goes into convulsions. Another drug closely allied to Ipecacuanha is LOBELIA INFLATA. This has with the asthma, a weak sensation in the epigastrium, spreading up into the chest, nausea, profuse salivation, and a feeling as of a lump in the stomach. Ipecacuanha is one of the best remedies we have for capillary bronchitis of infants, especially if caused by the kind of weather I have described. There is a great accumulation of mucus in the chest. The examining ear hears rales all through the chest, both anteriorly and posteriorly. The cough is spasmodic and usually attended with vomiting of phlegm. There may be fever and Ipecacuanha still be indicated. The child may have great difficulty in breathing from the great accumulation of mucus in the chest. In such cases, I have used the remedy in all potencies, that is to say from the third to the twenty-thousandth, and I have been well satisfied with its action. When Ipecacuanha is indicated the stage for giving Aconite has passed, because exudation has begun. If you adhere to the principles of homeopathy, you will not give Aconite and Ipecacuanha in alternation. After giving Ipecacuanha, you will notice that the mucus does not adhere so firmly to the walls of the bronchial tubes, but it becomes less tenacious and is raised more readily. Let me warn you that there are two or three changes, which will call for concordant remedies. One of these changes calls for ANTIMONIUM TARTARICUM, and that is when the cough grows less and less frequent, the quantity of mucus in the chest not diminishing in amount. The infrequency of the cough is not a good symptom although the mother will think so. The chest is so filled with mucus that the child cannot cough. He grows more and more drowsy. In giving Antimonium tartaricum in these cases, give it in frequent doses until the cough increases. Another change calls for PHOSPHORUS, and that is when the inflammatory symptoms increase and the substance of the lungs is involved and pneumonia obtains. Then Ipecacuanha ceases to be the remedy. Any one who practices in the colder parts of the country will find these catarrhs frequent, and with Aconite, Ipecacuanha, Antimonium tartaricum and Phosphorus, he can manage the great majority of his cases. Still other remedies may be needed. In some cases, Antimonium tartaricum, though apparently well indicated, fails to control the symptoms. Then we may have recourse to SULPHUR, which produces in the healthy, catarrh of the bronchial mucous membrane with loud rales all through the chest, especially in the left lung. Especially is it indicated when there is atelectasis. In just such cases, I have used Sulphur with success. Another remedy is TEREBINTHINA, which I have used when the child was drowsy and the lungs seem to be all clogged up. The urine is apt to be scanty and almost dark from the admixture of blood. Terebinthina must be given repeatedly. Still another remedy is LYCOPODIUM, which affects more the right lung. Loud rales are heard all through the affected part. Expectoration is yellowish and thick. We may be called upon to give Ipecacuanha frequently in whooping-cough, this by virtue of the spasmodic character of the cough and the action of the drug on the pneumogastric nerve. You will find in addition to the symptoms already mentioned, that there are spasmodic convulsive symptoms present. During the cough, the child stiffens and becomes rigid (from tonic spasm of the extensor muscles), loses its breath and turns pale or blue in the face. Finally it becomes relaxed and vomits phlegm which of course relieves. While Ipecacuanha is of excellent service here, you are reminded of two other drugs which are similar. One of these is CINA, which I must ask of you to remember as being something more than a mere worm remedy. This remedy is useful in whooping-cough with the same kind of rigidity that I have described for Ipecacuanha but there is in addition a clucking sound down the ossophagus as the child goes out of the paroxysm. If in addition to this symptom, you also have grinding of the teeth, Cina is certainly a better remedy than Ipecacuanha. CUPRUM is the complement of Ipecacuanha in spasmodic affections and in whooping-cough. It is especially indicated in convulsions from worms and during the course of whooping-cough. Spasms of the flexors predominate. In fevers, we may use Ipecacuanha especially in those of an intermittent type. As I said in my lecture on Cinchona, it is one of the best drugs to give when your case is completely mixed up. It is particularly indicated when there is a short chill followed by long fever with nausea and vomiting, especially after the abuse of quinine. Ipecacuanha is an excellent drug for haematuria, for haemorrhage from the kidneys when the trouble is attended with nausea, oppression of the chest, hard breathing and cutting pains in the abdomen. In some cases, those who work in Ipecacuanha are affected with a violent inflammation of the conjunctiva. Now this fact led Jousset to apply the drug in the treatment of ophthalmia, and he claims many successes from it in the intense conjunctivitis of scrofulous children. There are tearing pains in andabout the eyes and copious lachrymation. Tears gush forth every time the lids are separated. In closing let me give you the Ipecacuanha temperament. Studied as a homeopathic remedy, you will find it indicated in patients who are full of desires they know not for what. As a child, it cries and screams. Children are continually crying and screaming. Adults are irritable and morose, holding everything in contempt. BISMUTH seems to hinder the action of Ipecacuanha. OPIUM increases its action on the bronchial mucous membrane.

Reef Octopus RODC Controllable Water Pump
Product Manuals & Documentation
The Reef Octopus controllable Direct Current "DC" water pumps are the latest in variable speed flow technology and allows for refined control, enhanced performance and efficiency. The vast majority of circulation pumps available to hobbyist are alternating current "AC" pumps (the type of power that comes out of your wall outlet). Direct current pumps have several key advantages over traditional AC pumps. Most notably,you can control the rotational speed of the motor, thus electronically control water flow rates. DC pumps are also more efficient than AC pumps and produce less heat per volume of flow.
Now the aquarist can have full control of the water flow through their sump, reactors, filters or closed loop systems!!!
Refined Control
This controller allows users to select between five preset speeds indicated by five lit LEDs. The controller also features a feed/service and an On/Off button. When the feed button is pressed, the skimmer pump shuts down and will automatically reactivate after 10 minutes. Press the feed button a second time to resume normal operation. RO DC pumps feature a true slow startup where the pump slowly ramps up from zero RPM to the full preset speed over a period of approximately 10 seconds.
The pump and controller are connected via a waterproof 3-conductor union. The detachable controller will allow for a simple waterproof union. The volute can rotate to change the pump`s output orientation in 90 degree intervals, meaning users can output water vertically (up or down) as well as horizontally.

Kosher Vegetarian
Couscous with Vegetables |
KosherEye.comby Gloria Kobrin, author of Kosher Cookbook - iPhone & iPad Touch Application The trick to this recipe is to add the diced carrots and zucchini and sliced asparagus to the couscous when it is piping hot. The heat from the couscous cooks the vegetables so that they retain their color and bite. I've purposely left this recipe very simply seasoned so that it can be a foil for the chicken and beef dishes I've included in this article. Adding a cinnamon stick to the couscous while cooking adds a great deal of flavor as does adding a handful of chopped herbs after cooking: parsley, dill, mint, basil. Enjoy. Ingredients: 1 large onion – peeled and chopped Equipment: Directions: Heat vegetable oil in pot over medium high flame. Add chopped onion and garlic and sauté until onion is translucent. Pour in couscous and stir well until some of it has toasted. Pour in water according to directions on the couscous container. Bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer. Cover pot and simmer eight to ten minutes. Remove cover. Taste. Add salt and pepper. Fluff couscous with a fork. Add vegetables immediately and stir gently. Allow to cool. Serve at room temperature. Notes: Serves: 10-12 Recipes: Vegetarian, Couscous, Vegetables, Parve, Kosher |

Line your way to beautiful lashes! Now you can have longer, fuller, thicker, beautiful lashes naturally. Line n Grow combats sparse, short or damaged lashes right before your very eyes. The most powerful all natural non-toxic lash lengthener helps you achieve longer, fuller looking lashes and brows.
Rather than resorting to false lashes, enhance what nature gave you with Line n Grow natural solutions for short, thin and brittle lashes. The formulas rely on gentle, botanical based ingredients that nourish and protect the follicles and lashes themselves. Like any other part of us, the lashes are susceptible to damage from the environment. Line n Grow formulations are loaded with antioxidants which protect the lashes and follicles from further damage. Antioxidants can also help repair damage that has been done in the past and can promote better health in every part of the body.
Line n Grow products are gentle enough to be used by those who have sensitive eyes and skin. Even contact wearers can use Line n Grow without any worries. Some eyelash enhancing products contain prostaglandins which can have negative side effects. Line n Grow natural solutions encourage stronger, longer and thicker lashes without the side effects.
Line n Grow offers products that avoid harsh chemicals, artificial colorants, chemical preservatives, synthetic fragrance and chemical sunscreens wherever possible. |

Learn More About Line n Grow
Brittle lashes are common, and many factors are to blame. UV rays are damaging to lashes. They penetrate your hair and weaken it at its core. Eye products such as mascara, makeup removers, and false eyelashes can dry lashes and make them more susceptible to breakage. And as you age, hair follicles gradually produce thinner hair and less of it.
Imagine being able to accentuate your eyes with an all-natural liner, and within four weeks your lashes appear longer and fuller. Now you can with Line n Grow.
Line n Grow is a tinted eyeliner that can be worn daily. Apply to your upper and lower lids for best results. Line n Grow has no harmful side effects and can be worn under makeup. The formula is free of parabens and fragrances, and is never tested on animals.
This breakthrough formula contains non-toxic active ingredients that have a bevy of benefits. Sweet grape seed extract is rich in antioxidants and combats the stressors that diminish your lashes. Rh7-polypeptide fortifies and promotes growth so your lashes look healthier. And Malus domestica nourishes skin stem cells so hair follicles generate hair instead of going into a resting phase.
Line n Grow also includes important conditioning ingredients. Sodium hyaluronate locks in hydration to give you stronger hair that's softer and more flexible, and therefore, less likely to break. Panthenol thickens lashes and makes them glossy. Aloe leaf extract triggers the production of new hair. Japanese green tea extract combats oxidative stress and seals in moisture. And rosemary extract increases circulation and strengthens hair.

My grandmother, Esther Durfee, was a budding photographer while living as a young woman with her parents in Bieber, Lassen County, California. Her father, Thomas Jefferson Durfee was the postmaster there over many years. When young Esther got her first camera she seemed to have made it her mission to photograph every person within the community, or so it seemed! The first photo album has had all the people who were identified in it, scanned.
Today I would like to introduce you to Norris Bethel. Photo taken about 1918 (could have been as late as 1920).

Although we often focus on the food and the service, restaurant dining is really the combination of food, service and environment. That's where architecture and design come in. Design sets expectations, influences moods, engenders feelings that are as much the part of the restaurant experience as where the ingredients are sourced and how the wine pairs. Good design adds to the comfort, satiety, and overall excitement of a great restaurant experience in a synergistic way.
The Food Studies Program of the New School for Public Engagement is partnering with The James Beard Foundation (JBF) to launch a series of panel discussions titled Dining + Design: Conversations with Chefs and Architects on Creating the Ideal Dining Experience. This unique series will feature conversations with top toques and architects, highlighting the critical relationship between a restaurant's culinary concepts and physical design in creating the ideal dining experience.
This is the third panel discussion of the Dining + Design series. Speakers include:

"Central Florida"
This works really great!
So I was reading a review that someone wrote about hand picking fleas off by hand. The flea life cycle has many stages and can take up to 3 months to truly kill off all the fleas. I use this product on 2 danes,a rottie & a german shepherd. It took 2 months to get rid of the fleas but haven't seen one since. Fleas will not be gone overnight if your animal has an infestation
"Best Flea Defense"
I live in a place where there is a lot of sand so my dog is always infested with fleas. I have tried everything including Frontline and Advantix but nothing worked. As a last resort I decided to give this a try and I am so glad I did. My dog is flea free!!!
Tried it on my little Papillon and within 12 hours no more fleas. i will buy more , the price is right too...
I bought this product to replace expensive Frontline products for my Yorkies after they got fleas in mid-August. I have already seen results with fleas dying and after a month I am fairly certain that this product has cleared up the flea problems for my dogs. Great value
"Does not work"
Even if it has the same ingredients a Frontline Top spot it does not work at all. I put this on three of my dogs 5 days ago and and still picking fleas off by hand. This was a waste of money, time and I am an truly disappointed. Now I'm stuck and am afraid to put on another product for fear that it would be too much and make them ill. Lesson learned at the expense of my dogs and my own sanity.
