SINOPSIS: Separation opens with an absolutely innocent shot of a young girl riding a bicycle. It isn't until later in the film that we learn exactly what we were watching. And that is exactly what Separation is all about. This is a film that masterfully uses sleight of hand like a highly-skilled magician to show us one thing while setting up something completely different. And writer/director Greg White brings it all together in a tense film with an exciting climax that pulls back all the curtains.

Clint Holmes
Clint Holmes (born 9 May 1946) is a singer-songwriter and Las Vegas entertainer. He was born in Bournemouth, England, the son of an African-American jazz musician and an English opera singer. He was raised in Farnham, New York, a small village southwest of Buffalo, as a child.
Holmes is perhaps best known for his #2 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 chart "Playground In My Mind" in 1973. The nursery rhyme-styled song features Holmes duetting with producer Paul Vance's son Philip (d. 13 December 2009) on the chorus. "Playground In My Mind" was written by Paul Vance and Lee Pockriss, released in the U.S. in July 1972 but did not reach the Hot 100 until 24 March 1973, where it stayed for 23 weeks.[1] It was granted gold disc status by the R.I.A.A. on 3 July 1973.[1] The single went one better in Canada, topping the RPM 100 national singles charts there for three consecutive weeks in the same year (June 23 - July 7).[2]
This account is given in the autobiography, Johnny Holliday: From Rock to Jock:[3]
"I also helped break a record at WWDC. It was a tune called 'Playground of My Mind,' written by Paul Vance, whom I had known from my WINS days in the Big Apple. Clint Holmes, an excellent talent just waiting to be discovered, recorded it. Clint had found his local audience at Mr. Day's in Georgetown and various other D.C. nightspots. When Clint's record promoter dropped the single off at WWDC, we just jumped all over it. It became a hit overnight. Clint is the sort of fellow you just automatically like the first time you meet him. He and I played tennis at Candy Cane Park in Silver Spring and shot a ton of hoops together. He's a good athlete. I couldn't be prouder of what Clint has accomplished in his career. After 'Playground' hit, he became Joan Rivers' sideman on her short-lived late night show on Fox, and then he got his own TV gig on WOR-TV in NYC."
Initially a vocal music student at Fredonia State College, Holmes left school for the U.S. Army during the Vietnam War. He spent his 3 year enlistment (1967–1969) with the elite United States Army Chorus, and then remained in the Washington, D.C. area to launch his civilian career, singing in nightclubs up and down the East Coast. Holmes was the announcer for The Late Show Starring Joan Rivers (1986–1988), the initial broadcast offering of the then-new Fox Broadcasting Company.
Holmes has been a Las Vegas show attraction since the early 1970s. In 2006, he closed his headlining show at Harrah's Las Vegas Casino, which renamed its main showroom for him. From 1990 to 1995, he hosted Honda Campus All-Star Challenge on the BET network, and, after the event became non-broadcast, continued to host the final matches through 2008. Most of Holmes' Vegas band members also appear in a locally popular R&B/jazz group, Santa Fe and The Fat City Horns.
Holmes has annually returned to Buffalo each March to co-host the annual Variety Kids telethon on WKBW-TV.
With the opening of the Smith Center for the Performing Arts in 2012, Holmes performs monthly in the Cabaret Jazz Theater.

Petit Verdot 2011
A deep and full-bodied wine often known for adding structure to Bordeaux blends, Petit Verdot is not often found as a single varietal bottling. Our 2011 vintage yielded fruit of such exquisite quality that we were able to produce a wine to showcase the rich and robust qualities of this unique varietal.
The majority of the fruit for our 2011 Petit Verdot was sourced from our vineyards in Oakville and Stags Leap District, with a small amount from our Rutherford blocks. Petit Verdot is a late-ripening varietal, and these warm regions encourage the development of complex flavors and a rich mouthfeel.
The mild 2011 vintage allowed for a long hang time, resulting in evenly ripe, complex flavors in the berries. The fruit for this wine was harvested at an optimal level of ripeness late September to late October. Fermentation took place at a high temperature to ensure that maximum extraction was achieved before the wine was racked to 35% new French oak barrels. The wine was aged in barrel for a total of 18 months before bottling.
This deep, ruby-purple wine offers intense, lifted fruit aromas of fresh strawberry preserves, red plum and boysenberry, intertwined with notes of white peppercorn, smoked bacon and dried sage. Ripe and luscious, the palate enters with a rush of fresh, brambly blackberry and strawberry tart that melts into silky spun sugar, sweet vanilla and graham cracker flavors. The meandering finish lingers, backed by sturdy tannins and balanced by bright acidity.
Dark, intense and inviting, this wine would make a lovely accompaniment to a meal rich and flavorsome enough to balance its opulent complexity, such as duck cassoulet or steak frites. Our Petit Verdot would also make a delectable cheese course when paired with Mimolette, a hard, aged cow's milk cheese.

Awesome By james on 2/12/2013 james would recommend this product to a friend Great rock, light, affordable!! Great bang for your buck By jT on 2/12/2013 jT would recommend this product to a friend I ordered 15lbs. for my 12 gallon long and it looks like 30lbs. of rock and is very light in weight. Very easy to hacksaw these rocks in half in about 3-5 minutes. They came very clean and 90% of what I received was ivory white in color. As this is my first marine tank I took more extensive preventative counter measure and played with the bleach bath then with the muriatic acid bath to reduce the amount of dead stuff that can't be seen and to mitigate high levels of leaching phosphates. Yes, this rock does leach phosphates of up 0.25 ppm in my third week of cycle with no livestock. This pukani looks absolutely brilliant aesthetically and even luxurious compared to the other boring common boulder shaped types. You can easily shape these into vertical towers!! Best rock every By mitch on 2/12/2013 mitch would recommend this product to a friend 10 years in hobby and nothing has ever been so nice. A 10-15 pound piece is easily 4 x larger than typical Fiji rock. I doubt you could get 70 pounds of this in a 100 gallons. So full of holes and crevices. Fish love to hide in rock and makes many places to mount corals Amazing Rock By Ron on 2/12/2013 Ron would recommend this product to a friend I ordered 60lbs of this rock and they sent me 4 really big pieces and 2 shelves and ofcourse some rubble. I would of liked some smaller pieces but I will just break one of the bigger ones up. Great product and I can't believe how much of the rock you get for the weight. A oh kay By Bryan on 2/12/2013 Bryan would recommend this product to a friend ordered 42 pounds and received 38 pounds instead but hey its just 4 pounds missing. Im not complaining! Worth the money! I recommend when starting a new tank! PEST FREE! Amazing is all I have to say By Ron on 2/12/2013 Ron would recommend this product to a friend This rock is so light and takes up so much space. I was able to fill my 125 gal with a nice look with only 60lbs and a few pounds of existing rock. The rock came as 4 basket ball size pieces which was kind of aggrivating at first. But after the fact it was great cuz I was able to chip away at them and break them exactly how I wanted them. Amazing rock By Jbkilg2 on 2/12/2013 Jbkilg2 would recommend this product to a friend My pukani rock is beautiful stuff. The largest piece was an amazing showpiece. Love it! This rock is easy to chip out holes. Super light weight, great stuff. By Garcastle on 2/12/2013 Garcastle would recommend this product to a friend As others have said, this stuff is super light and great. I ordered 30 lbs to start to replace some old base rock and while I'm not super excited to cook/clean the rock, I'm eager to have it in my tank! awesome By john on 2/12/2013 john would recommend this product to a friend This rock is great ! i love how it looks and brs is awesome . the shipping is super fast . got it a day eairler than expected !!! Awesome rock!! By Colin on 2/12/2013 Colin would recommend this product to a friend This is the best rock you can get. The value is unreal so be careful when you order. You get so much rock for what you pay for in pounds. Get it while you can, great price!! Excellent value and quality product By ChristopherLee on 2/12/2013 ChristopherLee would recommend this product to a friend Requested large pieces for my new tank and they sent the largest pieces of rock I have ever seen. They also sent an extra 20lbs on top of my order to be sure they hit 100lbs. The rock is really nice. Its basically dead coral in huge formations.

Prime Minister's wife Samantha Cameron, an ambassador for the capital's bi-annual style jamboree, US Vogue editor Anna Wintour, TV presenter Alexa Chung and model Daisy Lowe were among the guests yesterday at the Autumn/Winter 2011 collection by Christopher Kane.
The Lanarkshire-born designer, who picked up an Elle Style Award to add to his £200,000 British Fashion Council/Vogue Designer Fashion Fund prize, showcased his "liquid collection" of womens-wear -- inspired by pencil cases and lollipops.
He described the collection of crocheted skirts, weave printed leather and iridescent mermaid-like dresses on show at Sheldon Square as his most "minimal" to date.
Mrs Cameron wore a Christopher Kane galaxy print skirt at a fashion week reception held at 10 Downing Street which was attended by supermodel Claudia Schiffer and designer Vivienne Westwood.
She also took in the show by up-and-coming Edinburgh-born designer Holly Fulton, who has created a diffusion line for Mrs Cameron's former employers, Smythson of Bond Street. Fulton won praise for her printed and embellished silks featuring Manhattan skyscrapers.
Oscar-winning actress Tilda Swinton continued her association with Pringle of Scotland by taking a front row seat to view its latest collection yesterday morning. She even wore a tweed coat by the 196-year-old brand. Creative director Clare Waight Keller's Autumn/Winter 2011 collection referenced late-1960s and early-1970s knitwear designs using autumnal tones in the hand-knitted garments.
Rutherglen-born print maestro Jonathan Saunders, who unveiled his latest vision on Saturday, showcased 1940s-inspired dresses in bold colours and eye-catching prints. Famous faces at his show included model Yasmin Le Bon, New York socialite Olivia Palermo, and singers VV Brown and Marina Diamandis.
Louise Gray, originally from Fraserburgh, emphasised her heritage using tartan with foil prints and sequin stripes to create a rainbow of colour.
Edinburgh-born designer Patrick Grant, whose label E Tautz won Menswear Designer at the British Fashion Awards, will show his collection tomorrow.

"Just Another Man"
He looks in the mirror every morning and night,
Does he see what I see, it would be nice if he might.
He sees a rude man as he stands there,
I see someone who needs someone to care.
He sees a mean man, because he has to be tough,
I see someone who deals with more than enough.
He sees how he tries not to cry and feels he has no heart,
I see someone who has to keep his feelings and work apart.
He sees a murderer because he shot someone last night,
I see someone who saved someone else from a fight.
He sees a failure because he did not arrive in time
I see someone who did his best and needs peace of mind.
He sees just another man as he enters the day,
I see a special man who does his best in every way.
For all the years, he has put on the uniform of blue,
He has never realized how much he protects me and you.
But, as he starts the day again, I just wish he could see,
What he really is and how much he means to you and me.

Lamberto Bava
Profile and Filmography of Lamberto Bava
Lamberto Bava was born on April 3, 1944 in Rome. He is the son of acclaimed Italian horror-film director, Mario Bava (Black Sunday and Diabolik); and, the grandson of Eugenio Bava. Eugenio was a cameraman and optic effects specialist who worked during the days of silent cinema in Italy.
In 1965, Lamberto got his start as his father's assistant in the film, Planet of the Vampires (Terrore nello Spazio). During the next decade and a half, Lamberto would fall into the role of his father's apprentice. He was his father's assistant director for films such as 1971's Bay of Blood (Reazione a catena) and 1977's Shock, which he co-wrote the screenplay for. He took the director's chair for several scenes to assist his ailing father - although he's not credited as director on this film.
Lamberto was also an assistant director on several of Dario Argento's films including 1980's Inferno and Tenebre (1982). He worked with Ruggero Deodato on Cannibal Holocaust in 1980 as well. In actuality, 1980 was a big year for the younger Bava. He directed his first feature film Macabre (Macabro). In this film, a married woman loses her lover in a car accident. She keeps his decapitated head as a memento. The film definitely lives up to its name.
Bava followed this film up with 1983's feature film, A Blade in the Dark (La Casa con la scala nel buio). Bruno, a composer played by Andrea Occhipinti, becomes involved in a series of murders while staying at an isolated villa. These murders have an eerie sort of resemblance to the horror film that he's scoring.
This idea of horror films imitating life is shown again in 1985's Demons (Demoni), which was produced by Dario Argento, and may well be Bava's best-known film. In this movie, Hannah, played by Fiore Argento, Dario's daughter, is one of a group of people who goes to see a new film at the Metropol Theater. The film is about demons that come to life. As the action unfolds on the screen, it begins to mimic what's going on in the theater.
Demons is creepy, gory and has an impressive soundtrack. Bava would follow up this film with two sequels - 1986 s Demons 2 and 1988's Demons 3: The Ogre. Well Demons' 2 was clearly a sequel. The 3rd edition of this film strayed from the plot line of a film within a film to focus on the horrors that befall a horror novelist named Cheryl who's haunted by nightmares that are beginning to come true.
In between Demons 2 and Demons 3, Bava took time out to work on the film, Delirium (Fotos di Gioia), which starred Serena Grandi and Daria Nicolodi. Grandi was Gioia, a former nude model, who now runs a modeling agency. She watches as the girls around her are murdered in terrifying and grotesque ways.
During the late 80s, Bava also did some made for television movies in his homeland. These included:
- Una notte al cimiterio (A Night at the Cemetery) 1987
- Fino alla morte (Until Death) 1987
- L'uomo che non voleva morire (The Man Who Didn't Want to Die) 1988
- Il Maestro di terrore (The Prince of Terror) 1988
- A Cena col Vampiro (Dinner with the Vampire) 1988
- Il Gioko (School of Fear) 1989
In 1990 Lamberto attempted a remake of his father's Black Sunday called La maschera del demonio (Black Sabbath). To many, the film fell far short of the original and showed that Lamberto was not the director his father was. In 1993, he filmed what many thought would be his last made for theater release. It was called Body Puzzle (Misteria). Joanna Pacula stars as a widow. Her husband, Abe, died in a motorcycle accident. His lover, Tim Bell, lost his mind when Abe died. He begins murdering the recipients of his deceased lover's organs.
Throughout the remainder of the 90s, Lamberto would focus on his television work, doing a great deal of the sci-fi series Fantaghiro. Only recently, has Bava returned to the silver screen. His film, Ghost Son, is currently in post-production and the Torturer is being filmed and awaiting a 2006 release.
No matter what the future holds for Lamberto Bava, he has made his mark on the giallo genre. He learned much from his father; yet, he had courage enough to follow his own vision. He may be the son of Mario; but, he truly is his own man.

IOWA CITY - Monday was the first court appearance for an Iowa City man accused of killing a neighbor during a chess game fight.
Iowa City police claim the murder suspect choked his victim by using his legs. David Christian, 29, faces a charge of second degree murder. He's accused of killing Michael Steward, 39, early Sunday morning.
We knew Sunday that Steward and Christian were playing a game of chess at the rooming house where both lived. But new court details about the way Steward died makes a strange case even more bizarre.
David Christian didn't say much in court as the judge set bond at 500-thousand dollars. But court documents claim Christian admitted he and the victim started fighting while drinking and playing chess. And during that fight (quote)"...the defendant placed the victim's head between his legs and applied pressure to the victim's neck."
"By his own admission, he applied the choke hold, applied, relaxed and applied...and it went on over a series of minutes until the victim was totally unresponsive," said Sgt. Troy Kelsay, Iowa City Police Dept.
Police say all this happened in a rooming house common area, but no one else was around. Investigators say Christian told them Steward "didn't look so good" after a while.
When asked what he meant, Christian replied "have you ever seen a dead person?"
Neighbors knew both victim and defendant hung out and would go drinking together. But police claims Christian choked Steward to death using his legs caught many by surprise.
"I would have had a hard time believing that...it's quite surprising...it's very strange," Caleb Gentry, next door neighbor.
"I'm sad to hear this happened...and I'm shocked," said Gareth Gingerich, knew the victim and suspect.
Police say Christian told them he performed C-P-R on his neighbor, but got no response.
Police charged Christian with public intoxication as well as 2nd degree murder. Court documents say Christian's blood alcohol level was three times the legal limit four hours after officers were called.

Reflective value of blogs
I mentioned in my reply to Crystal that I had decided to use Uthink because I had set up a blog for a class I took prior to this one. This previous class was Online Communities and I decided to go back and read my comments. It was very interesting and helpful to read these past posts. I can remember my struggle to find the right role for asynchronous versus synchronous discussions as well as blogs. I was also taking a completely online course at the same time and in my posts I'm constantly compairing the experience with the use of technology in the two courses.
While this has been a very useful experience for me, I sort of forgot that I had this blog until we set one up for this class. As Scott points out, use of reflection is such a powerful tool to help us make sense of what we are doing and why in the moment. But I wonder how often we go back and review our past reflections. I wonder if any of you ever have your students revisit their reflections and how this activity impacts learning?

CLOSE RELATIVES: Mack.
SKILLS AND ATTACKS: Flame, Flame Wall.
STRENGTHS: Strong Against Fear, Poison, Sleep, and Silence.
WEAKNESSES: Weak Agaist Jump Attacks, Star Rain, Psych Bomb and Geno attacks.
The Smithy Gang made mechanical clones of their old monsters. Mack was one of them. He didn't lose his abilities or Shyster bodyguards but he's actually weaker than the original one!
Like all of the Machine Mades, Mack is made of shiny metal.
"Mario! I'm BAAAAAAAACK!" (hidden quote)
Games: Super Mario RPG
Offence: 160 (Normal) 95 (Magic)
Defence: 120 (Normal) 40 (Magic)
Speed: Average.
Points: 120 exp.
Items: 30 coins and leaves a Fire Bomb sometimes.
Attack Pattern: Attacks like regular Mack with his Shysters.
Basic Strategies: You can use a strong magic attack to destroy his Shysters before you attack him, but they may regenerate. Mario, Geno, and Princess Peach are good choices for this fight. It will take 3-4 regular timed hits to beat Mack.
Advanced Strategies: Have Mario use Jump Attacks on him since he's vulnerable to them. Machine Made Mack hardly ever does regular attacks, but if he does, try to press A just before he hits you to block.

17 Day Diet Reviews – The 17 Day Diet PlanFriday, July 8, 2011 23:21
Now the 17 Day Diet plan developed by Dr Mike Moreno has taken America by storm. But how can such a book create such a hype over a simple diet plan? Well first we need to have a look at wether that diet plan is really as simple. It does not really claim to be, but it claims to be really easy to hold on to. In this 17 Diet review, I'm gonna have a closer look at that book for you, to see wether it is worth a try, or not.
Dr Mike Moreno was invited to the dr phil tv show, to present this system, and to tell the people how it works. He said, that the whole system is about changing habits. But as we know, that this is really not an easy thing to do, most of you would probably just laugh at such a sentence. But you won't laugh, when Dr Moreno tells you how you can easily change habits, to be more active, cleanse your body, lose weight and feel great. The key is never to let boredom come up. His system changes every 17 days.
Now the Dr Phil Television show is a reliable source for health information usually, but I became interested then, and wanted to test myself. What is written in that book?
Well first of all, the 17 Day Diet Plan has so much to offer, that you almost never eat just the same things in a 17 Day Cycle. There are tons of recipes provided, that you can choose from. The difference between normal diet recipes and the ones that the 17 Day Diet provides is, that those meals taste delicious.
But the 17 Day Diet Plan does not only offer a bunch of meals, and a plan, that you have to stick to. It's much about psychology. Mike Moreno explains why he chose the magic number 17 for that diet plan. The reason is simple: It is about that time, that it takes for a human to get used to changing habits. After that it becomes easier. But the 17 Day Diet Plan doesn't have only one cycle, that you have to repeat everytime you get through. You will get another plan just as good, as the previous one for the next 17 days, but this time with different meals and different training exercises, to keep the fun.
Yes you heard right. The 17 Day Diet Plan also includes a number of exercises, to make the diet even more powerful. Now you don't have to be scared. The workouts provided, are not crunches and sit-ups but easy exercises, that everyone can do every day. The best thing about those exercises: They only take guess how long? => 17 minutes a day – That's it! That is all the time, you need to do the exercises needed for the 17 Day Diet.
So let's see again, what you get for your money:
- Healthy food
- Weight Loss
- Body Cleansing
- Sportive Workouts
- Alternation
- Fun!
- Outstanding results
So in the end, as a conclusion I can say, that that the 17 Day Diet Plan as seen on the Dr Phil TV Show is a really good work, and definitely worth a try for all who want to lose weight in a natural, healthy and long lasting weight.

It features Brendan Fraser's final appearance as Ben Sullivan. The character had previously appeared in the first season episodes "My Occurrence" and "My Hero".
Critical reaction was very positive. Most notably, it was nominated for the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Writing in a Comedy Series.
Jordan, Danni and Ben return to help prepare a gathering for Dr. Cox's son Jack's first birthday. Turk and Carla clash over removing Turk's mole, and changing Carla's last name after they marry, while one of Ted's band members quits. Dr. Cox angrily blames J.D. for a patient's death and dismisses him, but Ben calms Dr. Cox down and talks some sense into him, and he eventually forgives J.D.
On the way to Jack's birthday party, Ben tells Dr. Cox to forgive himself for the patient's death, which he does. When J.D. arrives and breaks their reverie, Dr. Cox realizes that Ben is not there, and that they are at a funeral rather than Jack's party; the final scenes reveal that Ben is the patient who died, and that his presence had merely been a hallucination. The episode ends as a heartbroken Dr. Cox uncharacteristically allows those around to comfort him.
Brendan Fraser was supposed to appear in "My Long Goodbye" as Ben because Carla asks Dr. Cox if he had ever seen a ghost, however, Fraser couldn't appear because he was currently filming a new movie. As such, Jill Tracy from "My Lunch" appears instead.
The use of Ben as a figment of Cox's imagination parallels a future episode when Laverne is near death and appears only as a figment of Carla's imagination.
Ben had previously appeared in two Season 1 episodes: "My Occurrence" and "My Hero". It is in these two episodes that Ben was diagnosed with cancer in the first place. In the former, JD himself goes through many events with Ben after he is informed Ben is clear of cancer...which climaxes with him realising he is imagining them and that Ben still has cancer, much as Cox imagined Ben to be alive.

The Rainbow Warrior in Mumbai waters
Greenpeace India has been working on various issues related to the environment since 2001. Our work in India is focused on four broad campaigns namely, stop climate change, sustainable agriculture, preserving the oceans and preventing another nuclear catastrophe. Over the years Greenpeace India has built a strong base of supporters spread across the country.
Greenpeace is a non-profit organisation, with a presence in 40 countries across Europe, the Americas, Asia and the Pacific. To maintain its independence, Greenpeace does not accept donations from governments or corporations but relies on contributions from individual supporters and foundation grants.
Greenpeace exists because the earth and all life on it deserves a clean and safe environment - now and in the future.
As a global organisation, Greenpeace focuses on the most critical worldwide environmental issues such as:-
· Oceans and ancient forests protection;
· Fossil fuel phase out and the promotion of renewable energies to stop climate change;
· Nuclear disarmament and an end to nuclear contamination;
· Elimination of toxic chemicals; and
· Preventing the release of genetically engineered organisms into nature.
Since its earliest days, Greenpeace has been linked to the seas and its ships are incredibly valuable, not only in actions to save the whales and protect the marine environment, but for all campaign work.
Actions often speak louder than words and non-violent direct action is at the heart of Greenpeace campaigns, which have also grown to include lobbying and research over the past years.

R&B songstress, Karyn White will be in Nigeria to perform on Valentine's Day at the La Campagne Tropicana Resort, Ibeju Lekki. This coincides with the launch of the Annual 'Queen of Queens' also billed for the same venue.
The Queen of Queens pageant is an initiative, by Atunda, a leading Nigerian event promoter to bring together winners of all other pageants organised annually in the country.
According to Dr. Wanle Akinboboye, founder of Atunda Entertainment, Karyn White was picked among the very many artists considered for the Valentine's Day launch because she possesses one of the most memorable, distinctive voices ever heard in popular music.
Akinboboye noted that White is an accomplished singer/songwriter who etched herself into music history with her smash hit song, the female anthem, "Superwoman." The song sold ovver a million units, being certified Gold and named the Billboard R&B Song of the Year in 1989.
The founder of Atunda also noted that, the launch will also give some established and upcoming Nigerian artists a rare opportunity to perform and hobnob with this international super star and enigma. Nollywood stars are among 'A' list guests expected to grace the occasion.

For years, wastewater utilities have begged restaurants and residents not to flush fats, oils, and grease (FOG) down sewers and toilets. Wipe Out session panelists at last month's Water Environment Federation (WEF) annual convention say it's time to add another item to the list: wet wipes.
Here's the problem: Most people assume it's OK to flush household and personal care products, conveniently delivered via the single-use sheet, down the toilet. In fact, some actually think that's better than throwing them away because they'd take up valuable landfill space.
People don't realize that "flushable" is not the same thing as "flowable." Today's toilets can handle just about anything, but the 50-, 75- , and 100-year-old sewer collection systems they discharge to cannot.
"Sewer activists" say that's easily fixed: Toughen the standards for what can be labeled "flushable," and put a prominent "don't flush" logo on non-compliant products.
Wait a minute, say consumer goods manufacturers. It's not as easy as you'd think.
Changing package design takes an average of 18 months. Graphics must be tweaked and manufacturing processes retooled. Color costs more than black and white. Labeling requirements are voluntary, so manufacturers and retailers aren't required to spend the additional money these changes involve.
A decade ago, the Water Environment Research Foundation and INDA, the trade group for the nonwovens/engineered fabrics industry, used Procter & Gamble's process for assessing biodegradability to develop criteria for determining what can be labeled flushable. Wastewater utility managers want the guidelines expanded to encompass more products.
INDA says members are making a good-faith effort to be environmentally friendly and besides, wet wipes aren't the main problem—paper towels are. Those manufacturers should be asked to do their part.
You can get involved, too. WEF, the National Association of Clean Water Agencies, and the American Public Works Association are collecting examples of how treating toilets like trash cans is impacting sewer utilities and customers.

Hats Off to Our Graduates!
Friday, June 13, 2014
By: Savanna Mitchell
For most UNCW students, summer has meant lazy beach days and zero responsibilities. Even so, for some it now means beginning a new chapter, in which resides a very serious reality check. The Department of Communication Studies released their latest batch of graduates into the world this May. Several students within the COM Department looking forward to graduation were excited to share details before the event on where they planned to go and how they planned to get there.
Kelly Dahlheimer is excited to take her first steps as a professional. She chose to double major in Communication Studies and Business Administration with the hopes of landing a job in a Marketing or Advertising firm. Ideally, she would go into business consulting in an attempt to help struggling businesses restore a tarnished or faded image. Her biggest influence over the years has been her father and she looks forward to continuing in his footsteps. "My dad was in business all his life so his connections and knowledge have helped me determine my path," says Kelly. Thanks to the Communication Studies program she will be fully prepared to effectively communicate with businesses and use PR and IMC tactics to get them back on their feet.
According to Connor Brookes, Communication Studies was the perfect choice for his career path. His plan is to take the summer off and attend law school in the fall. He says that, "with a solid understanding of oral and written rhetoric, I hold the skills that will make me a successful lawyer one day." While he is not interested in pursuing a career in Communication Studies, he knows he will apply the knowledge and skills he obtained at UNCW. Thanks to classes like Nonverbal Communication and Mediation, Connor believes he will be able to better understand his clients as well as be able to look at the law from a variety of perspectives. His interest in law began at an early age and has been strongly encouraged by his father over the years. "I believe the support of my family and the understanding I have of communication will be the two factors that get me through law school," he states.
Anna Phillips, has decided to follow her passion for journalism with the hopes of being hired as a reporter or journalist. She chose to double up as well by pairing Communication Studies with English. Communication has provided her with knowledge of broadcast journalism and studio production to benefit her as a reporter. She does not currently have a job lined up but says that she has applied to over 80 job openings around the country and is prepared to pick up and leave for the right one. In her own words, "I could end up anywhere from North Dakota to Florida at this point, and am willing to relocate to a station that hires me."
Communication Studies is a degree on the rise and more businesses are seeking out the skills our major provides. Most students do not come to college with a set plan, yet these graduates agree that choosing Communication Studies was a wise choice and feel confident that it has equipped them with a variety of skills. No student is the same and yet with the versatility of the COM Department, each graduate can be sure they are ready for that next step. Kelly was able to sum it up by saying "I think the knowledge I have gained from Communication classes will be in my subconscious mind at all times and I will apply the skills and signs I have learned to navigate communication in both my professional and personal worlds."

The Kardashians
Kanye West: Never Going To Marry Kim Kardashian?
The rumor mill around celeb super couple Kim Kardashian and Kanye West hasn't stopped turning from the moment they first got together, but now that they're expecting a baby together things have gone into overdrive. The biggest topics: Why they're spending so much time apart during Kim's pregnancy, and (now that Kim's divorce from Kris Humphries is settled) if and when the two are going to get married!
According to Radar Online, the answer to the marriage question is probably: Never.
"It doesn't appear that Kanye will ever marry Kim because the more time he has spent with her, the more he recognizes they want very different things from life," the source told the website. "Kanye doesn't want to share the spotlight with his partner, and he wants to be the center of attention, period."
Really? Because the words "press shy" and "Kanye West" sure do pop up in a lot of sentences together. Sure, the man's a star and he loves being a star, but he's hardly one for hogging the spotlight.
It's true that the couple has spent a lot of time apart during Kim's pregnancy because of their busy work schedules, but they've been making up for lost time recently.
Kim has made it clear that she thinks she'll marry Kanye one day, but she's also made it clear that the couple is in no hurry. After all, they've got a little one's arrival to worry about first, and we're glad they're making Baby Kimye top priority.

Final Score: Chicago 5, Detroit 1
Chicago, IL (Sports Network) - Chris Sale tossed eight strong innings, Paul Konerko delivered an early two-run hit, and Max Scherzer was again denied a 20th win, as Chicago downed Detroit, 5-1, in the first edition of a three-game set.
Dayan Viciedo collected two hits and an RBI, with Josh Phegley driving in the other run for the White Sox, who have won two in a row after losing nine straight.
Sale (11-12) scattered four hits and one run, fanning eight and walking only one.
"This was as well as I've seen him all year," White Sox manager Robin Ventura said of his starter.
A Victor Martinez solo homer was all the offense for the Tigers, who have lost three straight and six of eight.
Scherzer (19-3) was dented for six hits and five runs -- four earned -- with six strikeouts and two walks over four full frames.
Scherzer departed after the Sox put up three runs with two outs in the fourth. Conor Gillaspie kept the inning alive with a double and scored when Viciedo followed with a single. Jordan Danks followed with a base hit to put runners on the corners, then Phegley's dribbler back to the mound was thrown away by Scherzer, allowing Viciedo and Danks to cross the plate for a 5-0 game.
Martinez cleared the wall in left center with one down in the seventh, but Sale finished his outing by retiring the final five batters he faced.
Nate Jones followed suit in the ninth to close out the contest.
The game started on an inauspicious note for the visitors. Tigers third baseman Miguel Cabrera was ejected in the middle of his first at-bat, along with manager Jim Leyland, by home plate umpire Brian Gorman for arguing that Sale had hit him on the right leg with the second pitch of the sequence and then complaining again on the third pitch.
"I don't know if (Gorman) didn't understand what I said...but I didn't say anything to get thrown out of the game," explained Cabrera.
Chicago capitalized in its first turn at the plate, as Alejandro De Aza singled, Gordon Beckham walked and both ended up scoring on a two-out, two-run base hit from Konerko.
Game Notes
Sale has won five of his last six starts since Aug. 6 ... Despite the setback, Detroit leads the season series 8-6 ... Sale fanned Austin Jackson in the third inning to give him 200 on the season, making him the fastest starter in team history to reach the milestone, surpassing Javier Vazquez in 2007.

And did he have on dark clothes?? Why was he in the middle of a busy street?? Are you that much of a jack ass??? He was visiting a 4-H fair, it was the end of the night and he was leaving. How disrespectful to rub salt in the familys' wounds. You are cpoming up with every excuse possible to deflect the blame. The plain and devastatingly simple fact is...Justin was hit by a car, a man who happened to be a retired detective and should have known better because he's been trained to deal with these types of situations..but instead he decided to leave the scene (drunk or not) and not render the aide he was trained to give. If he had not fled, it would be a different story. Kids are hit by cars all the time and those behind the wheel STOP. They are usually never charged because the kids run in the street. He didn't stop AND was a former law enforcer....SHAME ON HIM AND ANYONE WHO DEFENDS HIM!

Snack Shack in Madiera Beach Threatened
Mitch E. Perry
WMNF Drive-Time News Tuesday | Listen to this entire show:
Tonight in Madeira Beach, local residents will make a last ditch effort to save the historic cabin known as the Snack Shack, which is scheduled to be demolished next Monday.
Citizen Eddie Lee has collected over 850 verified signatures of registered voters in Madeira Beach that he hopes will persuade a majority of the City Commission to delay the proposed demolition. (roll tape#1 o.q."Monday Morning")
The Snack Shack, as its known, is located in Archibald Memorial Park in Madiera Beach.
It was built in the 1930's for recreation use by military veterans. It was later taken over by the Interior Department and then given to the city of Madiera Beach to run in 1972. In 1975, the Disabled Americans Veterans began operating the Snack Shack, selling food and drinks to beach goers. Eddie Lee, a Veteran himself, said there are several reasons why local citizens do not want to see the building go (roll tape#2 o.q."Veterans of the United States")Tonight's meeting takes place at City Hall in Madeira Beach at 7PM, located at 300 Municipal Drive. Eddie Lee hopes he'll have a packed house to persuade 2 of the City Commissioners, as well as Mayor Charles Parker to hold off on demolishing the Snack Shack. (roll tape#3 o.q."anyway")
WMNF attempted to speak to Madeira Beach Mayor Charles Parker. He was not available by airtime. Again, that meeting at City Hall in Madeira Beach takes place at 7PM. comments powered by Disqus

Just like the podcast, GifTuesday is also making it's triumphant return. This week Mike Magee reminds us that he had a little help scoring his goal in Houston.
I've said it before but the Open Cup coin flip gives me the absolute worst pit in my stomach for an unscientific estimate of about 2.76 seconds.
With hosting rights for the 2013 championship match on the line with the final coin flip at Soccer House in Chicago on Tuesday, the sheer terror of it all still wasn't enough to keep me from filming it.
Having been to everyone of these since the third round, I can say there was a noticeable difference in the amount of folks that came to witness compared to earlier rounds. I'd actually estimate about 25 staff members watching the proceedings. It's for the final right?
Also of note, though I'd been through four of these before with my team involved in each, I certainly didn't shake as much as I did today.
Case in point, watch my video of the proceedings to find out who won (if you haven't already seen it on the Twitter)…
Congrats to the winner of next week's RSL/Portland semifinal. Should the Timbers advance, the final will be played in Portland on September 24. Should RSL win, the final will be played at Rio Tinto Stadium on October 1.
Again, I would like to thank U.S. Soccer for the privilege of viewing all of the U.S. Open Cup draws/flips since the third round this year. While my team didn't come out winning today, I am a strong believer that the current system of coin flips (and envelope slips in the earlier rounds) is the fairest way to decide who should host these very important matches.
There continue to be plenty of ways the Federation can improve this competition (maybe an article for a later date) but I think the steps made over the last two years have been a push in the right direction. Here's to more of that.
Fire Fans! We still have to get there. Get your tickets to next Wednesday's U.S. Open Cup semifinals vs. D.C. United for just $12 when you use offer code "FIRE" by clicking here.
Fire forward Mike Magee is soaking in this week's MLS All-Star festivities in Kansas City and really why shouldn't he?
After 11 seasons in MLS, the league's joint-leading goal scorer is the longest tenured player on this year's All-Star roster to be making his first appearance in the mid-summer classic.
On Monday, Magic Mike joined fellow MLS All-Stars Will Johnson of Portland and Patrice Bernier of Montreal and host Nick Firchau on ExtraTime Radio to have a frank discussion about how they see the league in 2013, the dumbest questions they receive from reporters, Mike's sincere avoidance of Twitter and the honor of taking part in this year's game.
The Gold Cup Final at Soldier Field meant that even though the Fire were in Houston on Saturday, Chicago would not be deprived of live soccer this weekend. Thank goodness. From a Fire point of view, it's pretty special that Sean Johnson and alum DaMarcus Beasley overlapped on this USMNT squad.
The game itself wasn't as exciting as you could have hoped from the two best Gold Cup teams. Panama's tight defense kept the U.S. side from running at them the way they ran at Honduras and El Salvador and they never looked like they would put up the crooked numbers that defined their tournament.
BLOG: Beasley captains USMNT to 5th Gold Cup title
There were even a few times when the game looked like a cagey MLS match, with a challenger in town to try to steal the day, staying taut, and not making mistakes. But the USMNT wore down Panama, took their best (and really only clear cut) chance, held on against a barrage of balls floated into the box in the final minutes and were crowned deserved champions.
How nice would it be to see the Fire handle games like that? On Saturday, we saw the Fire come back from behind yet again. We saw them nearly nick all three points and then nearly lose them all. We saw flashes of dangerous counterattacks and Paolo Tornaghi making some big saves. Most of all, we saw despite obvious improvements over the last trip to Houston, the team is still missing one little bit of finality in both halves.
Back in April, the 2013 Fire v1.0 went to Houston with the goal of slowing the game down, playing calmly and controlling the match. The greenhouse (orange-house?) that is BBVA Compass Stadium dictated that, and we saw players run themselves dead on that afternoon, which also included a vintage Brad Davis garbage goal, Wells Thompson, and a last minute Jeff Larentowicz hit off the crossbar (HIGHLIGHTS from April 14).
On Saturday, the 2013 Fire v2.0 went to Houston with a different mindset. They went to play, to take some initiative. You could see it at the beginning of the game and at the beginning of the second half when Lindpere and Nyarko were pushed way up the field on the outside.
HIGHLIGHTS: Fire earn tough 1-1 draw in Houston
Alas, the result wasn't much different. Houston, one of the hardest teams to beat away in the history of MLS, controlled the game. The Fire looked absolutely spent at the end of the game, much of which they spent chasing the orange midfielders around and trying to clear their persistent crosses into the box.
But the difference this time around was the way in which the Fire actually looked dangerous at times, stealing into Houston's half on counter attacks and nearly grabbing the lead on a late Chris Rolfe chance.
In April, we looked at the difficulty of balancing the mindset to calm the game down without sacrificing the risk-taking attitude needed to be offensive, to attack. Now, with Bakary Soumare and Mike Magee (and the Alex/Larentowicz partnership), it seems like 2013 Fire v2.0 are poised to find that balance.
As another new striker and the All-Star break arrive, maybe the Fire will find that teeny bit of difference. If so, next time we play Houston at Toyota Park in September, they'll be the ones wilting, exhausted after falling to 2013 Fire v3.0

There are few players of Fire past that hold as an emotional connection to Chicago as former winger DaMarcus Beasley.
Scott Strazzante/Tribune
Having began his career with the Men in Red in 2000, Beasley made 134 competitive appearances, tallying 18 goals and 28 assists in four and a half seasons before signing with Dutch Eredivisie side PSV Eindhoven in 2004.
He also helped the club to three domestic titles in his time and along with Josh Wolff was the Fire's first representative on a U.S. World Cup team in 2002.
PERUSE: TrueCar Chicago Fire Player Registry
Beasley has had ups and downs in his career, falling out of the national team picture twice only to earn his way back. His current international renaissance was made more special by his captaining of the side to Sunday's Gold Cup title where it all began for him with the Fire at Soldier Field.
Chicago Redeye asked the veteran winger (and now converted left back) what it meant to raise the trophy in Chicago, with Beasley saying, "I still have so much love for the fans of the Chicago Fire. This was my first real club."
With a pretty strong love for the club and city, could a Fire return happen for Beasley before his career ends?
Last September, the Fire alum retured to the Windy City to take in a game at Toyota Park and told Chicago-Fire.com this:

After a confidence boosting 4-1 win over D.C. United at Toyota Park last weekend, the Fire fly south to take on the Houston Dynamo at the fortress that is BBVA Compass Stadium Saturday night (LIVE 8pm CT on NBC Sports / La Ley 107.9 FM). Houston beat Premier League side Stoke City 2-0 at midweek and currently occupy the last playoff spot in the Eastern Conference, a position the Fire is fighting for.
Here are some things to look out for from a tactical perspective.
Shadowing Andrew Driver – A threat both inside and out
Englishman Andrew Driver has had a stellar debut season in MLS for the Dynamo and his versatility has made him one of the most dangerous wingers in MLS this season.

Though naturally left footed, Driver is comfortable playing on either wing and is most dangerous when playing on the right, where he can cut in onto his left foot.
Though not on the level of Brad Davis, Driver's crossing ability and dead ball prowess gives Houston another dimension and makes the Texas team even more threatening on set pieces.

When the ball is on the other side of the field, Driver gets into the box to support the forwards and has chipped in with three goals this season.
He's also not afraid to come inside and switch positions with withdrawn striker Giles Barnes who played primarily on the wing in England before being converted by Houston coach Dom Kinnear.
Driver's most recent goal came against D.C. United in May where he won the ball and played it wide to Will Bruin before bursting into the box and receiving a return pass before finishing.
Tracking Driver's runs when he does cut inside will be key on Saturday night.
How to beat the Houston backline – 1v1s and runs off the ball
In last week's match against D.C., the Fire forwards, most notably Chris Rolfe, made some brilliant runs off the ball and were found by great penetrating passes from midfield. Both of Rolfe's goals came from off the ball runs and more of the same will be needed on Saturday.
A weakness of the Houston defense is paying too much attention to the person with the ball and neglecting to pick up the runs from other forwards or midfielders.
In the Dynamo's last league match against New England, they allowed Diego Fagundez to pass the ball to Chad Barrett at the top of the box and pick up a return pass unmarked in the box. But for some better finishing, the Dynamo would've been a goal down.

In the Dynamo's last league loss against the Red Bulls, the killer second goal came when the Houston defense fixated on Thierry Henry, allowing Johnny Steele to make a run into the box unmarked and the Irishman scored after a simple through ball from Henry.
WATCH: Athletico Coaching Corner
Off the ball runs from Rolfe and Mike Magee can open up the Houston defense and it will be up to players like Patrick Nyarko and Joel Lindpere to find the strikers as they did so well last Saturday.
The center midfield battle – who starts for the Fire
In recent weeks, Fire coach Frank Klopas has stuck with the midfield duo of Jeff Larentowicz and Alex to great effect but there are others knocking on the door for a starting spot and Saturday's match could be the perfect time to make a change.
Logan Pause and Daniel Paladini are back from injury and suspension respectively and I believe one could come into the starting lineup in place of Alex.
Houston are a team that have high-energy midfielders such as Adam Moffatt, Boniek Garcia and Ricardo Clark. All three are not afraid to get forward and this will force the Fire's two center midfielders to protect the back line.
With the fluidity of players like Giles Barnes, Driver and Garcia to deal with, a player like Pause or Paladini who are more defensive minded than Alex, may be more suited to deal with the flooded midfield.
Against a team like Houston, you must watch for through balls in behind the defense. A player like Logan Pause, who reads the game so well defensively and is constantly intercepting opposition passes, could be a better fit tactically.
Prediction: 1-1 with the Fire goal coming from Chris Rolfe.

Joel Lindpere continues to get big ups for his one goal, two assists performance in Saturday's 4-1 win over D.C. United as the Estonian international was named to the FIFA 13 Ultimate Team of the Week today!
Congrats Joel!
On Tuesday, July 9, a Chicago Fire fan forwarded a Yahoo! article to owner Andrew Hauptman that included a detailed account of a young fan who wanted to meet soccer superstar Lionel Messi on his birthday only to be left disappointed.
Upon further digging, it turned out, he wasn't the only one. A group of approximately 75 fans had paid a premium for a meet and greet at the July 6 Messi & Friends event at Soldier Field that ultimately didn't come to be. Learning more about this group, the Fire owner's immediate response was to find a way to contact these fans and invite them for a true, VIP experience at an upcoming Chicago Fire game.
Through a little help from Dirty Tackle's Brooks Peck, an introduction was made, and then an invite was extended for those fans to be a guest of Andrew's for last Saturday's match against D.C. United. And while not everyone could attend, with some traveling from California, DC, Toronto and even as far as England for the original game, the Fire welcomed 16 fans to Toyota Park that night.
After a quick tour of the Park, a trip on field and even to the locker room, the guests enjoyed the game from the Second Star Club. The 4-1 win over United was the icing on the cake. Many of the fans were truly grateful for the invitation; calling it a "bright spot in all of this drama."
One of the families shared this note with the Club after the game:
"…My family and I would like to thank you for yesterday's awesome tickets. We had such a wonderful time and we won't forget it, ever. Please thank Mr. Andrew Hauptman for everything that he did for us. This was a beautiful experience. Looks like we'll be season ticket holders starting next year. Thank you!"
Don't forget, the Fire is still offering anyone with proof of purchase to the July 6 Messi & Friends event at Soldier Field a 50 percent discount on a ticket to the Aug. 7 Chicago Fire vs. D.C. United Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup Semifinal match. All discounted ticket offers must be redeemed at the Toyota Park Box Office only. Inquiries regarding the discount can be directed to 1-888-MLS-FIRE.

7 Billion Reasons the World Needs Science-Powered Innovation
Yesterday, as the world welcomed its 7 billionth inhabitant, DuPont urged other companies, governments and NGOs to work together to find solutions based in science to the significant challenges we face as a consequence of dramatic population growth. At DuPont, we think of this as The Global Collaboratory.
"As never before, our world requires science-powered innovation and collaboration to meet the food, energy and protection challenges of unprecedented population growth," said Mark Vergnano, executive vice president. "Ensuring that no one goes hungry, that we meet our energy needs and that people are safe and our planet renewed requires the public and private sectors to collaborate in new and expanded ways.
The following are just some of the ways DuPont is working to collaborate with partners around the globe to find solutions to these big challenges:
Feeding the World
Africa: DuPont food scientists and Rab Processors work together to produce nutritious Sibusiso to help provide a solution to malnutrition and hunger in Malawi, Africa. http://youtu.be/zKKaPUqOvFs
DuPont is bringing Pioneer hybrid seed technology to local farmers in Malawi, resulting in more nutritious and higher crop yields and improved quality of life. http://youtu.be/UrIShIbKcLQ
Chile: Chilean salmon producers at AquaChile are committed to providing a healthy source of protein and omega-3s to the world's growing population. With DuPont and the World Wildlife Fund, they have now introduced an innovative new way to provide more nutritious protein, while sustainably maintaining our fish stocks for generations to come. http://youtu.be/1vrZkiuRUCE
Indonesia: After a pest crisis crippled rice farms in many countries throughout Asia in 2008, DuPont™ Rynaxypyr® insecticide helped farmers in Indonesia combat the pests that traditionally ravaged their harvests. http://youtu.be/ZZ3ondZm6dE
Decreasing the Use of Fossil Fuels
U.S.: Tennessee farmer Brad Black discusses how his 190-year-old family farm became part of a sustainable renewable energy pipeline. DuPont and Genera Energy are creating ethanol and other biofuels out of switchgrass to ease dependence upon the finite resource of fossil fuels. http://youtu.be/7VyxctmL9RI
United Arab Emirates: In Masdar, Abu Dhabi's stunning new sustainable development, is a living laboratory dedicated to proving the viability of green technologies at a citywide level. When it came to manufacturing the thousands of solar panels required for the landmark project, Suntech turned to DuPont to deliver key enabling materials to ensure maximum efficiency and reliability. http://youtu.be/xcKF6AcV4M0
Protecting What Matters Most
Mexico: Affordable housing is a cornerstone of a safe and healthy lifestyle. DuPont and Repshel collaborate with a Mexican family and the local community to build affordable housing for a safer, healthier and more dignified life. http://youtu.be/elkoAQaz2AA
Brazil: Brazilian Military Police Officer Da Silva and his wife, Lucia, discuss their personal encounter with the life-saving impact of bullet-resistant vests made with DuPont™ Kevlar®. http://youtu.be/oLsroS4p_Yk
India: To support their families, many women in India have taken jobs with Tata Steel. Traditionally, women in India wear saris while operating machinery. DuPont worked with Tata Steel on industrial workplace safety to improve employee and contractor occupational safety, while remaining aware of the sensitivities of the Indian culture. http://youtu.be/ohmr3V8yxfk
NatGeo Global Population App & Twitter Event
DuPont has partnered with National Geographic magazine to offer an app that is a collection of its related population coverage across 2011. The app, "7 Billion: How your world will change," explores the challenges – and potential solutions – for coping with a growing human population in a world of limited resources with informative videos, interactive maps, in-depth articles and stunning photography. It is available for free download for a limited time.
On Nov. 1, National Geographic @NatGeoLive will host a chat on Twitter beginning at 12 p.m. EDT with Robert Kunzig (@rkunzig), author of National Geographic's The World of 7 Billion. Kunzig will entertain questions on a variety of issues and challenges our world faces as it is impacted by 7 billion people.

Novartis, Antisoma Taking on Avastin in Lung Cancer Market
November 20, 2007--Novartis and its partner, Antisoma, announced revised clinical trial plans for their experimental drug ASA404; the new study program pits ASA404 against Roche and Genentech's blockbuster drug Avastin. Novartis, which licensed rights to ASA404 from Antisoma in April, had originally planned to test the drug only in patients with squamous non-small cell lung cancer, who cannot use Avastin. The new Phase III program will include non-squamous patients too. Reuters

Clear all that hard-to-see-but-you-can-taste-it buildup with the reservoir and tube brush in CamelBak's Brush Kit.
The brush and tube brush in CamelBak's Brush Kit help get rid of the remnants of yesterday's sport drink. With the CamelBak Brush Kit's reservoir brush that leaves no corner untouched, and a tube brush that cleans out your water delivery tube, today's water won't taste like a combination of last week's sport flavors.
Share your thoughts
What do you think of the
CamelBak Cleaning Brush Kit
? Share a...
Best cleaner
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Before this, i had to go through some pretty convoluted ways to clean my CamelBak bladder and tube. Now, it is a snap. As one reviewer said, just the tube brush makes this kit worth it, however, all the other stuff it brings makes it a great product.
Chris Byars
The tube-brush makes it worth it.
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
The large brush for the bladder works but I prefer a sponge. The tube-brush, however, is well worth the $9.95! I use it for the bite-valve as well. If you don't leave your bladder and/or tube wet for more than a couple days you shouldn't have to really do more than rinse and dry it. If it does become a bit slimy, this kit and some hot, soapy water will get it clean.
Does the job
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
looks to be durable and does what it is supposed to do. what more can you say.
Chris Visitacion
Good buy.
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
It would've earned five stars if the tube cleaner is a bit longer. Still a good buy but you need to separate tube from reservoir to properly clean tube.
The tube brush is the gem.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
The tube brush is what you need. The tablets and then the tube brush. Clean as a whistle.
I have seen some people with the most disgusting hydration bladders and drinking tubes. There is no excuse for it with how simple it is to clean them.
Michelle Parker
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Gotta get the cleaning kit! Works great and I'm not way more fired up to guzzle down clean water with no added gunk and funk. Can't stand the build up, so this cleaning kit is a must have for me.
Amanda L
THIS is why you need this brush kit.
This grew in my tube. In a Camelbak where I only used water (hard tap water through a Brita filter).
Amanda L
Skinny long brush: Necessary.
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
If you're like me, you might question the need for this brush kit. Really, the bigger brush wasn't super necessary, but that tiny long brush? Very necessary. I only ever put water in my Camelbak, but the funk still grew inside the hose/tube. Yes, the skinny brush is not the length of the entire tube. But the tube disconnects from the bladder and the mouth piece and you should do that to clean it thoroughly anyway. Use the brush from both ends of the tube and you're golden. Just try not to gag when you pull that brush out of the tube for the first time. The results may surprise you. Now that I know what can hide in there, I clean it out more often.
Chris Walden
Good kit
While the brush can be replaced with other cleaning devices the long hose cleaning bottle brush is a must! I do wish it was a little longer but overall a good compliment to your CamelBak hydration pack.
A much needed kit.
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Like others wrote, I also waited a long time to buy this kit and finally broke down when it went on sale. However, the kit is a must in order to keep the gear clean. One recommendation is to put the hydration pack in the freezer until the next use. This will ensure that everything stays free of fungi/bacteria until the next use.
easy + effective
I felt so defeated when I had to break down + buy this. Once I swallowed my pride, I was able to get back to drinking clean water instead of the gang from Fraggle Rock that had congregated in my tube.
daniel roy
definitely worth having if you own the bladder!
arthur martineau
A must have
If you have a bladder you have to have this cleaner. Bottom line the hose cleaner works great at cleaning and drying.

That's it, Justin Bieber. THAT IS IT. I am over you like I'm over lucite heels (too stripper-y), hobo purses (you can't find anything inside) and closed-toe wedges (just…no). Why, you ask? I spied him spitting off his hotel balcony in Toronto onto his fans! And this isn't idle gossip, Beliebers, I have pics to prove it:
Um…seriously Justin? Spitting is gross no matter what but to degrade your fans–the people who've made you rich and famous, BTW–is just beyond. Some say that it's still not certain that his fans were directly underneath his saliva bomb, but JB has been known to use slobber as a weapon before, spitting on a neighbor, a lady at the gym and a nightclub DJ.
Are you as disgusted as I am by this darlings? Or is there totally a plausible explanation for JB hocking a loogie on his not-so-beloved Beliebers?

Yesterday, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously to approve a living wage of $9.65 an hour for County home care workers. Hundreds of home care workers were crowded inside the board room awaiting the vote and broke out in cheer upon hearing the news.
It was a historic day for Los Angeles and the over 140,000 home care workers that live in the County. Thirteen years ago, a handful of courageous women helped pave the way for home care workers when 75,000 LA home care workers voted to join our union.
Today, we continued that story thanks to the hard work done by the ULTCW bargaining team to demand dignity and respect for the work we do.
This journey has taken an incredible amount of effort. It wasn't that long ago that we delivered over 30,000 signatures in support of a living wage for home care workers in Los Angeles.
We could not have made history without the courageous effort of LA home care workers, consumers, supporters and community partners who have showed up with us to the LA Board of Supervisors week after week. Watch video from the living wage vote celebration:
The final step of our journey will be the outcome of our meeting with the Personal Assistance Services Council (PASC) for our bargaining session to finalize the details regarding the wage increase.
Stay tuned for updates @ www.ULTCW.org and on Facebook and Twitter.

Paros (Πάρος) is an island of Greece in the central Aegean Sea. One of the Cyclades island group, it lies to the west of Naxos, with which it is separated by a channel about wide. It lies approximately south-east of Piraeus. Today, Paros is one of the most popular European tourist hotspots. The Municipality of Paros includes numerous uninhabited offshore islets totaling 196.308 km² of land. Its nearest neighbor is the Community of Antiparos, lying to its southwest. Paros also became known for its fine white marble which gave rise to the term Parian which is used for China and fine marbles worldwide. The island has also been called Venetian: Paro.
Paros has numerous beaches including Chrissí Aktí (Golden Beach, Greece) near Drios on the east coast, at Pounda, Logaras, Piso Livadi, Naousa bay, Parikía and Agía Irini. The constant strong wind in the strait between Paros and Naxos makes it a favoured windsurfing location.
From Athens the island later received a colony of Ionians under whom it attained a high degree of prosperity. It sent out colonies to Thasos and Parium on the Hellespont. In the former colony, which was planted in the 15th or 18th Olympiad, the poet Archilochus, native of Paros, is said to have taken part. As late as 385 BC the Parians, in conjunction with Dionysius of Syracuse, founded a colony on the Illyrian island of Pharos (Hvar).
Shortly before the Persian War Paros seems to have been a dependency of Naxos. In the first Greco-Persian War (490 B.C.), Paros sided with the Persians and sent a trireme to Marathon to support them. In retaliation, the capital Paros was besieged by an Athenian fleet under Miltiades, who demanded a fine of 100 talents. But the town offered a vigorous resistance, and the Athenians were obliged to sail away after a siege of 26 days, during which they had laid the island waste. It was at a temple of Demeter Thesmophoros in Paros that Miltiades received the wound of which he afterwards died. By means of an inscription Ross was enabled to identify the site of the temple; it lies, as Herodotus suggests, on a low hill beyond the boundaries of the town.
Paros also sided with shahanshah Xerxes I of Persia against Greece in the second Greco-Persian War (480 - 479 B.C.), but after the battle of Artemisium the Parian contingent remained inactive at Kythnos watching the progress of events. For their support of the Persians, the islanders were later punished by the Athenian war leader Themistocles, who exacted a heavy fine.
Under the Delian League, the Athenian-dominated naval confederacy (477 - 404 B.C.), Paros paid the highest tribute of all the island members: 30 talents annually, according to the estimate of Olympiodorus (429 B.C.). This implies that Paros was then one of the wealthiest islands in the Aegean. Little is known of the constitution of Paros, but inscriptions seem to show that it was modeled on Athenian democracy, with a boule (senate) at the head of affairs. In 410 BC the Athenian general Theramenes found an oligarchy governing Paros; he deposed it and restored the democracy. Paros was included in the second Athenian confederacy (the Second Athenian Empire 378 - 355 B.C.). In c.357 B.C., along with Chios, it severed its connection with Athens.
From the inscription of Adule we learn that the Cyclades, presumably including Paros, were subject to the Ptolemies, the Hellenistic dynasty that ruled Egypt (305 - 30 B.C.). Paros then became part of the Roman Empire and later of its Greek-speaking successor state, the Byzantine Empire.
The capital, Parikía (Parechia), situated on a bay on the north-west side of the island, occupies the site of the ancient capital Paros. Parikía harbour is a major hub for Aegean islands ferries and catamarans, with several sailings each day for Piraeus (the port of Athens), Heraklion (the capital of Crete) and other islands such as Naxos, Ios, Santorini, and Mykonos. The harbour approaches are notoriously hazardous due to the presence of a group of isolated rocks. The most recent and deadly shipwreck off Paros was that of the car ferry MV Express Samina. It ran onto the rocks and sank in a storm on the night of 26 Sept 2000. This resulted in the drowning of 80 passengers.
In Parikía town, houses are built and decorated in the traditional Cycladic style with flat roofs, whitewash walls and blue-painted doors and window frames and shutters. Shadowed by luxuriant vines, and surrounded by gardens of oranges and pomegranates, the houses give the town a picturesque and pleasing aspect. On a rock beside the sea are the remains of a medieval castle, built almost entirely of the marble remains of an ancient temple. Similar traces of antiquity, in the shape of bas-reliefs, inscriptions, columns, & etc., are numerous. On a rock shelf to the south are remains of a precinct which was dedicated to Asclepius. In addition, close to the modern harbour, the remains of an ancient cemetery are visible, since being discovered recently during non-archaeological excavations.
In Parikía's main square is the town's principal church, the Ekatontapiliani (literally: "church of the hundred doors"). Its oldest features almost certainly predate the adoption of Christianity as the state religion of the Roman Empire (391 AD). It is said to have been founded by the mother of the Roman Emperor Constantine the Great (ruled 306–337 AD), Saint Helen, during her pilgrimage to the Holy Land. There are two adjoining chapels, one of very early form, and also a baptistery with a cruciform font.
On the north side of the island is the bay of Naoussa (Naussa) or Agoussa, forming a safe and spacious harbour. In ancient times it was closed by a chain or boom. Another good harbour is that of Drios on the south-east side, where the Turkish fleet used to anchor on its annual voyage through the Aegean during the period of Ottoman rule over Paros (1537 - 1832).
The three villages of Dragoulas, Mármara and Tsipidos, situated on an open plain on the eastern side of the island, and rich in remains of antiquity, probably occupy the site of an ancient town. They are known together as the "villages of Kephalos" after the steep and lofty hill of Kephalos. On this hilltop stands the abandoned monastery of Agios Antonios (St. Anthony). Around it are the ruins of a medieval castle which belonged in the late Middle Ages to the Venetian noble family of the Venieri. They gallantly but vainly defended it against the Turkish admiral Barbarossa in 1537.
Parian marble, which is white and translucent (semi-transparent), with a coarse grain and a very beautiful texture, was the chief source of wealth for the island. The celebrated marble quarries lie on the northern side of the mountain anciently known as Marathi (afterwards Capresso), a little below a former convent of St Mina. The marble, which was exported from the 6th century BC onwards, was used by Praxiteles and other great Greek sculptors. It was obtained by means of subterranean quarries driven horizontally or at a descending angle into the rock. The marble thus quarried by lamplight was given the name of Lychnites, Lychneus (from lychnos, a lamp), or Lygdos . Several of these tunnels are still to be seen. At the entrance to one of them is a bas-relief dedicated to Pan and the nymphs. Several attempts to work the marble have been made in modern times, but it has not been exported in any great quantities.
Parikía town has a small but interesting archaeological museum housing some of the many finds from sites in Paros. The best pieces, however, are in the Athens National Archaeological Museum. The Paros museum contains a fragment of the Parian Chronicle, a remarkable chronology of ancient Greece.

As the tartness fades, melon and baked apples show through. A lingering finish makes a fool of the price point. Drink with Pompano en Papillote. WHO: Joseph Drouhin WHAT: Chardonnay WHERE: Burgundy, France WHEN: 2008 HOW MUCH: $19

i think you have a very healthy state of mind, and a good marriage. I've done the same. I've also shared my wife. I know how I'd love the attention of two women, so I've given her the attention of two men. A few times. I'd love to give her the same again. The "HA!b*******!" reply was probably from an individual with a double digit I.Q.
I think that you have a hot wife that likes to have fun, take her out to a upper class nite club, let her dress like a w**** and see what happens. i've fantised about my wife getting banged and me watching. or have a frineds nite guys only let her service everybody.
Nice sentence structure Einstein - somehow you made two complete sentences with only 2 words. I would imagine that with the depth level of your commentary this gives me a pretty good insight into the complexity of your thinking capability. In this instance however your deduction happens to be completely inaccurate. I am confessing my actions and my desires; as this is a confession web site. To hopefully deter any other skeptics, I assure you the above story is a very accurate account of what took place. Just because your lives must be too boring for such an event to occur does not mean it's not occurring in other peoples. I would welcome some intelligent response. Do any of you have similar desires? I can't believe my wife and I are the only ones in this world that feel this way or play around with this idea. I seems like a real pity to have such a desire and then go thru life without ever exploring it.
HA! b*******!
I can't fully comment on this until I've seen the pictures for myself. Link please...
