If you are in a blended family, your own children may not want to visit the parents of their new step-mother or step-father for Christmas or Hanukkah, especially if this is not a holiday they have celebrated. If that is the case, it is probably not a good idea to force them.

Anxiety is a normal part of children's development. Almost all children feel shy or fearful around strangers. But about one in 10 children experience anxiety more intensely and more often than other children. This stops them from getting the most out of life.

Employ your charge. Let your kids hold the bag while you pick the pears.
Ask their opinion on creamy or chunky peanut butter. Allow them to hold the toilet paper until you make more room in the cart. The pre-school crowd loves to be needed–the more grownup the job the better.

Talk about the trees and the different colors they are turning. Collect leaves and tell your child in simple terms why they are falling off. Play in the leaves.
It's okay to be silly with your child. Just because you are the adult doesn't mean that you can't have fun too! After you start the sillies, you won't have to think of what to do next, the fun will follow.
Children love to have their faces painted. Here's an easy way to turn your little one into Peter Cottontail's helper: Draw an upside-down triangle on the child's nose with the brush from brown or black liquid eyeliner. Fill in completely. Rub a circle of rouge on each cheek. Paint three whiskers with the eyeliner on each side of the face, starting from the nose and extending across the cheek.
Simply take one white paper plate and cut 2 ear shapes from it and staple or glue them to the top of another white paper plate and draw a face on it. Glue cotton balls around the edge of the plate.
After your toddler starts to play on his/her own, keep a magazine nearby and sneak a peek at a page while she is stacking blocks. It's okay to take a break! She'll let you know when she needs some more attention, interaction, or direction.
Each month visit an art gallery, museum, or educational exhibit.
Organization is one dimension of family health. Without enough of it, families suffer the consequences of a chaotic environment.
How you treat your child is how she will learn to treat herself. If you're harsh with her, she'll be harsh with herself.
Kids develop a sense of self-worth early in life. Listen to what your children have to say.
Assure them that they are loved and safe. Celebrate their individuality, and tell them what makes them special and what you admire about them.

Red cocktail dresses for a special day
Today April 23rd, is St. George's Day and the residents of Catalonia celebrate this day in a very special way. Since 1926, the people of Catalonia celebrate the legend of a young hero who killed a dragon and saved a princess from its clutches, and from the blood came out a beautiful red rose.
Since then, it has become a traditional and soulful party where lovers exchange gifts such as roses and books. Many men traditionally present his loved one (wife or fiancée) with a single rose wrapped with a sprig of wheat and a red and yellow striped ribbon. In return, she gives him a book.
Why a red rose wrapped with a sprig of wheat? According to tradition, the rose symbolizes the exclusiveness of love from love, the color red symbolizes passion and sprig of wheat symbolizes fertility.
On this day, roses and books flood the four provinces of Catalonia and all Catalans go out to celebrate this emotion-filled day. If you have the opportunity to travel to Spain, we recommend doing so around April 23rd in any town in this region. It is a magical and very special day for lovers!
In observance of this holiday, we'd like to share several red cocktail dresses for lovers of red. Make your appointment at www.rosaclara.es!
Model 8T259 Rosa Clara Cocktail.
An elegant strapless sweetheart neckline sheath dress. We recommend combining with gem-colored crystal earrings, a dainty or statement necklace and putting your hair up to accentuate your décolletage.
Model 8T243, 8T246 8T252 from Rosa Clara Cocktail.
Three satin crafted models with different falls and necklines so you can choose the one you prefer. Which do you prefer?
Model 8T271 Rosa Clara Cocktail.
Can be crafted in silk or chiffon. It is available in many different colors depending on the fabric you choose. Try this universally flattering neckline, you will be surprised!
Do you like the tradition of Saint George? Will you be joining in on the celebration of love? Write us to email@example.com!

Who's That Girl?
More News from Philippine Daily Inquirer
It was a story that could've only been written in cyberspace.
A video, secretly shot in a mall, showing some "Random Girl" effortlessly singing the Broadway show stopper "And I'm Telling You (I'm Not Going)" soon went viral, earning over 2 million hits.
When the video first made waves on Facebook, eliciting "likes" from professional singers like Louie Reyes, Lirio Vital and Moy Ortiz, the Inquirer immediately came out with a story on the mystery singer who was dubbed "Random Girl" by videographer Yuan Juan who posted the video on YouTube on July 28.
At that time, the public didn't know the identity of the pint-sized, powerhouse diva who was clad in a simple T-shirt and shorts and carried a red knapsack on her back.
The Philippine Daily Inquirer later found out the real name of "Random Girl" by following clues posted in social networking sites.
Turned out Random Girl is Zendee Rose Tenerefe, an Information Technology graduate from General Santos City, Cotabato.
Soon enough, Zendee Rose made the rounds of local TV shows and, on October 27, after two months of waiting and rehearsing, she guested on the world-famous gab fest "Ellen," which brought her to Hollywood.
Teary-eyed, the show's host, comic Ellen DeGeneres, kept describing the petite Filipina singer "amazing," and later gifted her with a portable videoke machine (actually, an iPad made to look like a mini-videoke).
For her part, Zendee gifted Ellen with a videoke mic.
The "Ellen" website hailed Zendee as the "Next Big Thing." The online publication Examiner.com dubbed her the "Supermarket Superstar."
On her return home, Zendee put the finishing touches on her debut album under Warner Music Philippines. She soon starred in a Nescafé TV commercial with rock band Parokya ni Edgar, and was featured on the GMA-7 drama show "Magpakailanman."
It was quite a roller-coaster ride for this 21-year-old who had encountered mostly disappointments before "Ellen" beckoned. She had previously auditioned in various local talent shows like "The X Factor" and was rejected.
She recalled that she and her mom were in dire financial straits when they moved to Manila and had to live like squatters in a fire station.
With a click of the computer mouse, however, her life was turned upside down, or, to be more accurate, right side up.
"I must've posted a hundred videos on YouTube," said Zendee, who's a self-confessed cyber-junkie. "But I never imagined that Yuan's video would make it this big."
She didn't even know Yuan and only met him after the video went viral.
"I got to thank him when I returned to the mall," she recounted. "I also wanted to thank the salesman who allowed me to sing at the (store's) videoke display, but I heard he had been transferred to another section."
Shooting videos in the mall, she explained, wasn't permitted and Yuan was only able to record her "Random Girl" performance surreptitiously.
"It must be fate," she said.
When she applied for a US visa for the "Ellen" stint, she was lucky enough to be interviewed by a consul who had seen her video on YouTube.
When she appeared on "Ellen," she bumped into fellow guest and Oscar winner Halle Berry who told her: "I've seen your video."
"Halle hugged me for six seconds," she recounted.
These seemingly "random" instances of good fortune have made her all the more grateful and grounded, Zendee said.
Despite several controversies thrown her way, she has maintained her good humor. Intriguing questions thrown her way were met with giggles and self-deprecating jokes.
"I got my famous red backpack in Divisoria for only P350," she revealed. "That lucky bag in the YouTube video made it all the way to the US."
So she can laugh at herself, but who knew that this singer is a master mimic, too?
She can sing a la Jessa Zaragoza, Vina Morales, Jaya and KZ Tandingan and mimic the speaking voice of comedienne Rufa Mae Quinto as well.
"I won the contest Little Miss Aegis of Gen San when I was a kid," Zendee revealed, of her ability to sound like other singers.
She wouldn't mind working on radio, as a disc jockey, she said, adding during a Radyo Inquirer interview that she had worked as a deejay in the province. "My alias was Deejay Diday."
When she returned to the Inquirer two months ago to sing at the paper's anniversary party, she proudly declared for all the world to hear: "I'm an Inquirer baby!" •

Entries tagged with: Hisham Bharoocha
Earlier this week we started to hear rumblings of a super secret, giant Vice party taking place Friday night (tonight, 12/5) somewhere in Brooklyn. Many big names were rumored to be playing. Like the event they just threw in Toronto, it would be to celebrate the now-mega-company's 20 years of existence. Then last night Nick Zinner tweeted the above "Vice Confidential" memo which has the Yeah Yeahs guitarist playing as part of a house band which will be fronted by Karen O and a ton of other exciting guests, if it all comes true. Pussy Riot is even on there, as are a bunch of Vice Records artists, as you can see above.
The show is invite only, but apparently they'll at least be filming it all (for the benefit of those not in attendance, and for those who make it in but partake a bit too much in the open bar), and they gave away a few tickets.
It goes without saying that the timing of this, though surely coincidental, is just a bit unfortunate for everyone since the last time we used "Brooklyn", "Vice" and "party" in the same sentence, was to discuss the final night of Death By Audio less than two weeks ago (Glasslands closes on New Year's Eve).
For what it's worth, I don't think there's any crossover between the Vice lineup and who played the final month at DbA, though Hisham Bharoocha used to be in Lightning Bolt who played DbA's final night.
So, who's on the list?
Daniel Higgs playing solo shows & in the Skull Defekts, Thank You touring w/ a new LP, Soft Circle+Lichens = Zanzo
DOWNLOAD: The Skull Defekts - "Fragrant Nimbus" (MP3)
DOWNLOAD: Thank You "1-2-3 Bad" (MP3)
Daniel Higgs
Glasslands will host a headlining set from Zanzo (aka Hisham Baroocha of Soft Circle with Rob Lowe of Lichens) and additional performances from Thank You and Daniel A.I.U. Higgs TONIGHT (1/25). Entry will cost you a paltry $7, and the show starts at 8:30.
The show will double as a record release party for Thank You, as their new LP Golden Worry is out today via Thrill Jockey. Download "1-2-3 Bad" above and check out a video for "Birth Reunion" below. In early Feb, Thank You will hit the road in support of the LP, tagging Death By Audio on February 12th as part of that jaunt. Double Dagger is also part of the show, and will play NYU with Fucked Up the day before. Full Thank You tour sked is below.
Tonight at Glasslands is one of two NYC shows scheduled for Lungfish member Daniel A.I.U. Higgs in the near future He'll also play Issue Project Room on 2/26 with Heresy of the Free Spirit ("Jozef Van Wissem and Brooklyn-based multi-instrumentalists Che Chen (violin, bowed rewap, bass recorder, percussion and tape machine) and Robbie Lee"). Tickets are on sale.
In addition to both of the previously mentioned shows, Daniel Higgs has announced that he has joined on as a member of Skull Defekts. Higgs will appear on the band's forthcoming LP Peer Amid due via Thrill Jockey on 2/15. Check out the first track "Fragrant Nimbus" available for download above/streaming below. The band will follow up the release of the LP with US dates in late March and April with Zomes, including April 3rd at Littlefield in Brooklyn.

ATP NY 2009 - Day 3 pics & review (Boredoms, Caribou, Deerhoof, Boris, Jarmusch, Oneida, that crazy guy...)
words by Black Bubblegum, photos by Ryan Muir
some of the stars of ATP NY 2009
What's almost the exact opposite of a soothing set of Seven Swans performed by one of the most delicate singers in indie rock? Try nine drummers (including Hisham Bharoocha, Zach Hill, and Kid Millions among other notables) bashing your fucking skull for so long that the stage manager has to come out to unplug their gear and remove toms from underneath them! That's how I started my ATP Day 3... with the Boredoms blowing my mind.
Starting off with sparse chords on the monstrous multi-neck guitar/percussive device, Eye set a calm and reflective mood... and then the cymbals. And then the toms. And then eight drummers pummeled away led by Yoshimi P-We. And then the synced rimshots that recalled an Animal Collective beat. All of this happened before a ninth drummer was carried into the show like an emperor while doing a call and response with the other eight.
Within about 10 minutes, I knew that Boredoms would take the prize as best show at Kutsher's that weekend. The sheer power of the coordinated drums, along with pregnant pauses and killer synth effects performed via keys, CD-DJ tables, and broomsticks (!) were beyond jaw dropping.
Following Boredoms, I poked my head into Oneida's Ocropolis for the first of many times. For 10+ hours, Oneida basically had the small and very decorated room all to themselves for a long jam session with their friends. Reportedly, the band had tape rolling the whole time (Ocropolis is the name of their Brooklyn recording studio) and had visuals provided by the Mighty Robot AV Squad. With local standbys like BJ Warshaw of Parts & Labor/Shooting Spires fame, Chris Weingarten (ex P&L), Todd P, and many others spotted in the Sportsman's Bar, it seemed like Brooklyn in the Catskills. Unfortunately, I missed every single special guest appearance (word is, and in part according to a sign on the door, Soft Circle, Yoshimi, Aaron from Tall Firs, Zach Hill, Steven Drozd and many others all popped in) but the band was very interesting to watch, alternating between songs, and droney ambient jams.
Caribou was next in the main room and the 16-piece(!) band including Sun Ra Arkestra member Marshall Allen, Koushik, Kieran Hebden (Fourtet) and many others. I had no expectations heading into the set and was pleasantly surprised, although I found the mix to have waaay too much low end.
I ducked out of Caribou early to catch the last twenty minutes of Hopewell who was billed to be playing "The Desperation Suite," "complete with a female choir and avant-garde saxophonist Mark Marinoff". From what little I saw, the three person "choir" did little but coo, ooh, ahh, and coordinate a dance, but the band did close with a rousing cover of Jane's Addiction's classic "Of Course".
continued below...

I might be YOUR one
I'm originally from Buffalo, NY. I moved to Georgia in 2005 and it is the best decision I've ever made. I am pretty easy to get along with. I don't like dramatic people but I like passionate people. I enjoy good conversation, someone with a great sense of humor and someone who has drive in their life. Some days I like to stay in but sometimes I like to go out on the town. Like everyone, I love to laugh. If you can make me laugh, you've practically won me over! I'm looking for someone to spend time with. There are lots of things I want to do and see, but I'd like someone to do those things with. Here's the thing, I am really tired of playing games. I am looking for someone who is looking for a relationship. Not someone who is just looking for a fling. I have dated all types of people, so I know what I want, and what I don't. I know I don't want children, and I know I want someone who likes to have fun. I don't want to chase anyone, and I won't make you jump though hoops. I am not going to say physical attraction isn't important, because it is. But I also need to find the man interesting. Looks don't go very far if I don't enjoy your company. I like to travel, not a fan of flying, but sometimes you have to do things you don't like to get the results you want. I have been to Toronto, Las Vegas, Portland, throughout the South and I am looking forward to taking many more trips in the future.

NEWBERRY — The Southern Barbecue Network kicked off Newberry's annual Pork in the Park event Saturday, with 15 teams competing for the overall grand champion title.
This year was the first year the organization ran the event, with the City of Newberry having done the event in previous years.
Five of the 15 teams were from Newberry, with one team from North Carolina, and the rest from South Carolina. Pork in the Park teams competed in three different meat categories — Boston butt, chicken and ribs. Prizes went to the first, second and third place winners in each category, as well as to the competition grand champion.

Hi there,
Just got back from two months in New Zealand where we bought a trailer boat for ease of storage etc. A couple of points stand out after use. The person who said they tow once a year and leave the boat rigged at dry storage is on to it. We actually rented a berth and left ours in the drink. Towing is no problem but you use your boat more the easier it is. You won''t take an hours evening cruise if you have to launch the boat.
As to launching there are two things i learned that realy helped with mast raising. Try to get the bow a little down hill to help raise the mast and keep it in place while you hook it up. Also make certain the boat is level side to side to prevent twist and lateral strain on the base and rig as it is raised.
Hope any of this is usefull.. Cheers, Garry

Here's why Taylor Hall isn't working out
|05.28.10 at 1:32 pm ET
Today's news that Taylor Hall will not work out at the NHL Combine due to minor back and knee injuries may raise some questions. Warren Rychel, former NHL left wing and current GM of the Windsor Spitfires, told me today that the injuries were sustained on this frightening hit Hall took from Travis Hamonic in the Memorial Cup playoffs.

Experts testify at indecency trial
Suspect's DNA identified on two items of clothing
The state rested in 89th District Court on Tuesday afternoon after testimony from eight witnesses in the trial of Jesse Paul Carr, 25.
Carr is on trial charged with indecency with a child in connection with a Sept. 12, 2010, incident.
The jury was seated Monday, and testimony began Tuesday morning.
The mother of the 3-year-old child who was allegedly a victim of indecent exposure took the stand Tuesday morning.
Carr, according to the affidavit, is accused of masturbating within one foot of the child at a home where he was staying as a guest.
Police were notified about 5 a.m. after the girl's mother took her to the emergency room.
Two forensic scientists from the Texas Department of Public Safety Crime Lab in Garland testified Tuesday afternoon.
The forensic scientists both testified that a section of the pants collected by crime scene technicians from Carr the night of the incident presumptively tested positive for the presence of semen.
Further testing revealed the sample was semen from Carr.
Two pairs of panties belonging to the victim were also tested at the Garland lab, and mixed samples returned on both pairs.
One pair was left at the scene, and the victim presumably wore them to bed.
Those panties returned epithelial samples from the victim, Carr and the victim's sister. The epithelial levels found on the underwear are higher than if someone had just touched them, for instance, to move them, forensic scientist Amber Moss testified.
Moss said the second pair of panties collected from the victim at the hospital also contained the victim and Carr's DNA. The second pair, Moss said, returned close to the same levels of epithelial DNA as the first pair.
Callie Seigler, a nurse from United Regional Hospital who responded to the emergency room where the girl was taken, said the victim was not able to recount what happened and did not allow her to complete a physical examination.
Seigler, who routinely performs examinations of sexually abused victims, said that she observed no signs of trauma on the child, but also noted that trauma is only visible in about 5 to 6 percent of victims.
Seigler said she did not force the girl to complete the exam because it would be like she was abusing her all over again.
The victim's mother testified that she heard her 3-year-old daughter crying and ran to see what was happening when she found Carr in the living room with her daughter, and he was masturbating.
Carr was a house guest, the mother said, and was there to spend time with her husband.
She testified that Carr and her husband were drinking, smoking marijuana and playing video games.
She said her husband rarely helped with the children, and she was used to doing everything by herself.
The mother stated she also had a 3-month-old son and 2-year-old daughter at the time of the incident.
She said Carr stayed at their home in the 100 block of North Glencoe, the previous two nights as well.
DNA samples were taken from the parents and sister of the victim for exclusion, as well as samples from Carr.

ALL-VALLEY FOOTBALL: Brown, Pulsipher left their marks in 2010
Vista Murrieta QB names Offensive MVP, while Temecula Valley LB takes Defensive MVP honors
Derrick Brown remembers his first encounter with Adam Pulsipher.
Both were big-bodied kids exchanging blows in the paint for their varsity basketball squads, both were sophomores and both were on the cusp of starring roles under the Friday night lights.
Two years later, both NCAA Division I prospects ---- Brown a quarterback at Vista Murrieta and Pulsipher a middle linebacker at Temecula Valley ---- realized their potential in banner 2010 seasons.
For Brown, the All-Valley Offensive Player of the Year, that meant accounting for 39 touchdowns in leading the Broncos to their second straight CIF Southern Section Inland Division championship game appearance. For Pulsipher, the All-Valley Defensive Player of the year, his tenacity in the middle of the field spearheaded a defensive effort that helped the Golden Bears win five games after back-to-back one-win seasons.
The Bears, in fact, had a few more wins within their grasp under new coach Paul McGowen, with Pulsipher making his usual impression on his opponent.
"I remember when we were sophomores how we used to have our wars pushing each other around on the court," said Brown, who might line up against the BYU-bound Pulsipher again during his career at Utah. " ... There's no way you can't notice him on the field. He's big, he's physical and he hits people hard. When you're playing the game, you definitely want to find someone else to run at and have tackle you."
Pulsipher made his share of tackles at Temecula Valley, too.
A starter since his sophomore season, when he saw most of his action at tight end, he piled up 143 tackles and two sacks as a junior and had a full scholarship offer sewed up from BYU ---- where both his dad and older brother, Andrew, played ---- by the end of the summer. Then this year, Pulsipher added 126 tackles, two sacks and three interceptions in leading the revival of one of the area's oldest programs.
"I cannot believe how much he improved from his junior year to his senior year ---- from his footwork speed, strength and tenacity," Chaparral coach Tom Leach said. "(Temecula Valley) went from one win to five and Pulsipher was a big part of that. You game-planned to stop him. We had to know where he was on the field."
That sentiment was shared throughout the Southwestern League, where Pulsipher was named he circuit's defensive MVP. But for Pulsipher ---- who recorded 20 tackles, 17 solo, in a loss to Elsinore and had more than 10 tackles in nine of his 10 games ---- the team's revival was what really resonated with the 6-foot-2, 230-pound linebacker.
It all started with a season-opening 40-0 victory over Hemet, too.
"It was big, just for our confidence," said Pulsipher, who scored his team's first touchdown of the year on a bruising, 11-yard run as a fullback. "We knew we were talented and we knew we could play. We just hadn't done it.
"That first win was huge for us. It really set the tone for the year."

Maintenance of above ground pools is not for the squeamish. There is a lot of responsibility that comes along with having a body of water in your backyard. But the benefits of cooling off in the summer, watching your kids have a blast and even having a little fun yourself make it all worthwhile. For clean, healthy and of course sparkling water, study up on the science of above ground pool maintenance. Click for more Above Ground Pools
The pump and filter form the heart of any above ground pool maintenance program, helping to keep your pool water clear. Pumps provide the force to circulate the water and push it through the filter. Ideally, you want to turn over all of the water in an above ground pool within an eight hour time period. This means that every drop of water has circulated through the filter within eight hours. The best time to run your pump is during the day, usually for 8 - 12 hours at a time. It is also important that the water circulates around the perimeter of your pool. Water in motion makes it harder for bacteria and algae to take hold and also directs more debris to your skimmer where it can be captured by your filter. Adjust the eyeball jets in your inlets to move your pool water in a circular motion.
Your above ground pool filter is there to catch and remove both visible debris and microscopic particles. Sand and D.E. filters are cleaned by backwashing when the filter's pressure gauge indicates levels 8 to 10 lbs. above normal (always follow manufacturer instructions). Cartridge filters have a cartridge inside that can be removed and washed using a garden hose. Eventually, the cartridge will need to be replaced to ensure that the filter is working effectively.
All above ground pools have areas with little or no circulation. These areas of minimal circulation are the breeding grounds for problems like algae growth. The walls and floor should be brushed and vacuumed once a week. Even if you use an automatic above ground pool cleaner, brushing once a week is a must.
Test your water regularly for two key factors: pH and sanitizers. By testing at least three times per week you will begin to understand how bather load, weather (rain and sun) and chemical application affect your pool water. Regular testing of pH and sanitizer levels will ensure crystal clear water all season long. A digital test strip reader will make this quicker and easier. It is vital that proper pH is maintained in your pool at all times. If the pH is outside 7.2 to 7.6 it will greatly reduce the effectiveness of pool chemicals. Test your pH level at least three (3) times a week and use either a pH Reducer or pH Increaser to bring the pH into the proper range. If you find it difficult to maintain your pH, check your total alkalinity and be sure it is in the ideal range. Adjust total alkalinity levels accordingly.
Chlorine tablets are the most common and efficient sanitizer to use in above ground pools. These tablets are compressed so that they dissolve slowly and steadily release free chlorine into your water to wipe out bacteria and keep your water clean. Chlorine also comes in sticks and granules. Whichever form you decide to use, you'll want to look for stabilized chlorine which is processed to protect it from the sun's damaging rays, making the chemical last longer and work more effectively. Always keep chlorine in your skimmer, floater, or automatic feeder for continuous sanitizing.
As debris builds up in the water - from perspiration, suntan oil, hair spray and unfortunately, urine - it can cause eye and skin irritation and dull water. Often, chlorine is blamed for irritation and odor when in fact the real culprit is contaminants which tie up chlorine, keeping it from effectively sanitizing the water. When this happens, you should use shock which is basically a concentrated chemical treatment (usually chlorine). Shocking your above ground pool once a week will oxidize contaminants, freeing up the chlorine, and keeping your water crystal clear. Regular shock treatments will also kill resistant algae in the water. There are a variety of different products available including non-chlorine shock and shock designed for hard water areas.
Since algae are visible, it tends to be the pool problem that is most disturbing to pool owners. This is not surprising as no one wants to see black, green or yellow fuzz growing in their pool. In reality, it is not the algae that are harmful but the waste they produce by converting sunlight into food. This waste then feeds bacteria which is the real problem. Algae spores travel through the air and enter pool water. With just a few hours of sunlight on a warm day, algae can colonize your pool if your chlorine level is too low. The best way to combat algae is to never let them get started. Regularly checking to make sure your chemical levels are adequate and your pool water is balanced is vital. Adding algaecide is another preventative measure which will help prevent all types of algae from getting a foothold in your pool. You can use algaecide weekly to discourage algae growth.
If algae have already taken hold in your pool, there are some basic steps to follow. First, shock your pool and keep your water circulating 24 hours a day if possible. You are looking to achieve 10 ppm of chlorine. After shocking, you will need to brush and vacuum the entire pool. Follow up with an algaecide designed for your particular algae problem (most common are black, green and mustard algae). Brush and vacuum again and try to repeat this everyday. Check chlorine and add more if it's below 5 ppm. It is also recommended that you regularly clean your filter during this process.

User: Frustrated
Hello! We did not use a cover on our above ground pool last winter. It was like a pond and we added algaecide to clear it up. The green faded to cloudy. When we scooped the leaves out of the pool, it stirred up the brown debris from the bottom of the pool. We repeated the shock/algaecide treatment and swept the debris out of the pool and not through the cartridge filter. Over the weekend I added floc to the pool and turned it off a few hours later as instructed. I swept it the following day with little result and the pool is still cloudy. When we have the pool water tested, it reads no chlorine, even though we add shock and have chlorine tablets floating around in the pool. Also, the walls of the pool feel gritty, which I am told has something to do with calcium. I'm beyond frustrated already! Please help! What should we focus on first? Cloudiness? No Chlorine read? Low stabilizer? Any help is appreciated!

Empty pool – From your question I am assuming that you have an in-ground pool. Your biggest risk in leaving your pool empty for the summer is having it heave up out of the ground or crack from the upward pressure. If you live in an area with a high water table or have a heavy rain that saturates the ground, the pressure from that water will tend to push up on your pool shell. Without the weight of the water in the pool that pressure may damage your pool.

Can you leave a pool with no water in It for the summer? Will it affect the rock in the bottom?.
Posted: 7/8/2014 11:01:01 AM
sueann71 - Make sure all of your pool chemicals are balanced before you shock you pool, especially the pH. After shocking, use an Algaecide.

I have well water. I know I have to treat my pool with metal begone before adding chlorine. I added 32oz of metal balance to my pool as it filled ( 5312 gallons) let it filter all night. The next night I added one gallon of liquid chlorine again ran all night. Next more the water was slightly cloudy but could still see the bottom and it was tinted greenish yellow. How do I get it back clear without spending a butt load or draining?

Ritaclay - If you have connected the vacuum hose to a suction port or to your skimmer port and all the connections are under water, you should have enough pressure to vacuum your pool.

I shock the pool once a week I have an inter and there is no vacumn how do I clean it I have a thing that hooks to the hose they say the pressure of the water forms a vacumn but it doesn't work what am I to do

Lin - I can't tell from you description why your liner is coming off but, if it comes off with 1" of water, it will not stay up with more water. If you have an overlap liner, you may have to take the top coping strips off and let the liner down a little. If you have a beaded liner, you may have to buy a new one.

After 2 years of my pool being closed I tried to clean the black water for a month and ended up emptying it. When I put the water back the liner came off . I emptied it again and put sand under the liner and started filling it up but after one inch of water the liner started coming off again. Should I fill it up fast or replace the liner ?

Jojo - We would not recommend leaving your AGP empty during the winter. The water in the pool is what give the wall support. The wall would collapse and crease without it. Also, there's a good chance that the ground under an empty pool would heave with freezing and your bottom rails may bend.
Posted: 8/24/2013 8:43:22 AM
User: Jojo
Just empty my AGP after a 3 week fight the algae. Since the summer is coming to an end, can we leave the pool with no water during the winter or will that damage the lining?
Posted: 7/23/2013 10:03:43 AM
vacuuming setting - If you have a lot of debris or algae in the pool, use a "waste" setting so that it doesn't clog the filter. Otherwise, use the "filter" setting for normal vacuuming. See our guide on "How a Multiport Valve Operates" for more information.
Posted: 7/23/2013 1:03:42 AM
I am wanting to know about the settings on the filter. When I am vaccumming, which setting should I be using - the backwash or waste?

Shock for 11,000 pool - You add 1 bag for 10,000 gallons of water. If your pool is very dirty, you can add two bags. Add the shock at night and leave your filter running.

to orthdeb:Keep your ph at the low end, 7.2 to maximize your chlorine efficiency. You should probably add stabilizer as well.

We have had our AGP for 3 weeks In the beginning I could not find any balancing products... our ph and alkalinity levels are good but my chlorine is always low...we are having 100 degree plus temps so I know I need to add conditioner and stabilizer, but I am unsure of the proper amount... our pool is 15'x42" any help would be greatly appreciated.

Western Kentucky announced that it has hired Bobby Petrino as the new Hilltoppers' football coach.
WKU athletic director said in a release that Petrino would be introduced at a Monday afternoon news conference.
The 51-year-old Petrino replaces Willie Taggart, who left WKU Saturday to become South Florida's coach. Petrino had a 34-17 record at Arkansas and is 75-26 overall in eight seasons.
He was fired by Arkansas in April for a "pattern of misleading" behavior following a motorcycle accident. Petrino had an affair with former Razorback volleyball player Jessica Dorrell, whom he later hired as a football assistant and gave $20,000 in gifts.

Barely three quarters into the project we reached that goal, hitting the quarter-million mark at the beginning of Spring Quarter 2013. And new materials are still being developed, so the savings to students will keep adding up. Here's a snapshot of our OER offerings this year: • Fall 2012: 6 courses, 16 sections • Winter 2013: 10 courses, 20 sections • Spring 2013: 18 courses, 39 sections. The project is financed by a $90,000 contribution from student government, matched by the college. Textbooks are approximately one third of a TCC student's costs, so offering textbook-free courses can make a big difference. Find out more at open.tacomacc.edu 2012-2013 Tuition & Fees Tuition and fees are subject to change by the Washington State Legislature. Some courses may have additional lab or material fees.

As an artist schooled in naturalism, Lewis came out of the circle surrounding sculptor Augusta Savage during the late Harlem Renaissance and straggled to balance the social imperatives of his milieu with the prevailing formalist decrees of the art world. "The development of one's aesthetic abilities suffers from such emphasis [on social conflict]," rendering it "merely another form of illustration," he wrote in 1949. If Lewis never completely eclipsed the social realist roots evident in his work of the late '30s and early '40s, he gradually challenged them through the language of abstraction. Thus Lewis began to submerge his characters in an overriding pattern, as in an untitled work of 1945, in which a vestigial figure seems caught in an overlay of rectilinear cages--perhaps a metaphor for the artist's own conflicted situation. In other works, a diverse group of characters are united within a particular formalist vocabulary. In Frolic, ca. 1958, for example, a host of fashionable and colorful figures gleaned from Harlem street life merge into a riotous mass of striated lines, as Lewis plays the language of social commentary against one of linear abstraction.
This coexistence of representation and abstraction is perhaps nowhere more poignant than in Limits, 1954, in which darkly shadowed crosses spread across a light beige ground. Formally this work could be read as anything from an illusionistic version of Lucio Fontana's torn canvases to the blurred forms of distant stars pulsating in the darkening haze of a summer night. But something more politically resonant is going on: The linear cruciforms gradually become a harrowing image of welts and scars, the aftermath of a slave whipping. This social content pierces Lewis's carefully orchestrated field of forms and colors.
Although his fellow AbExers shared a common interest in Jung, it is hard to consider Lewis's achievement as emerging from any sea of universal symbolism. His subtle suspension of form and content is scarcely the product of intuition alone. Unity and division, cohesion and dissipation, all dynamic conditions of color harmony and dissonance and of static versus vibrant composition--these are the conditions that Lewis employed in his complexly personal (socially conscious) aesthetic purpose. Along with addressing the transcendent subject matter of the American Abstract Artists with whom he exhibited, Lewis continued throughout his oeuvre to attenuate his own presence in the world, never forgetting the particulars of the African-American experience--embodied by the narratives of urban families and workers--that governed his earlier realist style.

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Morgan Stanley (MS - Get Report) has spent over a generation on Wall Street playing the dumb cousin to Goldman Sachs (GS - Get Report), but now it may finally be paying off.
The bank's stronger-than-expected second quarter earnings still pale in comparison to Goldman's. However, signs of improvement in Morgan Stanley's less-heralded brokerage and wealth management businesses are convincing investors to pay up for its shares.
Currently, Morgan Stanley commands about a $54.5 billion market capitalization: roughly 70% of Goldman's $78 billion market cap. But the bank led by Australian-born James Gorman is forecast by analysts to be only about half as profitable as Goldman Sachs. Also, Morgan Stanley is only expected to earn 13% the earnings per share (EPS) of its larger rival, according to estimates compiled by Bloomberg.
Analysts currently project Morgan Stanley will earn $2 in EPS in 2013, versus over $15 in EPS for Goldman Sachs, the data show.So why are investors attaching a seemingly high premium to the earnings of Morgan Stanley and discounting those versus Goldman Sachs? Ironically, much of the premium may be explained by the declining influence of Morgan Stanley on Wall Street, although it remains the second largest standalone investment bank in the world. Morgan Stanley's management ranks were roiled in the credit-fueled bull market run of the 2000s, as it lost Wall Street market share to competitors such as Bear Stearns, Merrill Lynch, Lehman Brothers and, most notably, Goldman. Still, in the ensuing Wall Street collapse, the bank found itself illiquid, overleveraged, holding toxic mortgage debts and on the precipice of failure. To survive, Morgan Stanley sold a 22.4% stake in the bank to Japan's Mitsubishi UFJ. Goldman, while also on the brink of collapse, was able to use stock issuance and a preferred share investment made by Warren Buffett to make it through the crisis.

Fixes for Android Lollipop

Works good for my business. The app does hang some times.The card reader works as long as I have the settings right and volume high enough, occasionally I do need to swipe the card backwards to get them to read.

I like using Kudos and I enter the transactions manually. I bough the swiper for $99, months ago and it NEVER worked. I tried so many times, on different phones and tablets, I should get paid for wasting my time! I contacted the Kudos support and sales departments numerous time, but still nothing. I guess, they would like me to buy a new one.... Hopefully they will return my calls, one day.
