Will never happen. He has such a small following in the states.
Could easily happen. His US fanbase has exploded in the last year with the album release, has been featured on P4K, etc. Todd Terje closing the Gobi with the full band in 2015 would be a solid Coachella booking.
5/22: Move D, Reaganz, Sassmouth @ Monarch
5/28: Refused, White Lung @ GAMH
5/29: Spoon @ The Fox Theater, Oakland
5/29: Max Cooper EMERGENCE @ PW
5/30: Neutral Milk Hotel @ Pappy & Harriet's
6/2: Kiasmos ft. Olafur Arnalds, Rival Consoles @ The Independent
6/6: Matthew Dear, Daniel Bortz @ Public Works
6/12: Christian Loeffler @ TBA
6/17: Clap Your Hands Say Yeah @ The Independent
6/21: Underworld, Jungle @ The Hollywood Bowl
6/25: Until the Ribbon Breaks @ The Rickshaw Stop
That set is amazing with the full band. How are his DJ sets compared to the full band? I plan on seeing half of Little Dragon and then head to Todd Terje's set at FYF. Although it would've been great to have the full band this weekend, I'm still excited to check him out for the first time.
Superfan will be in front of the Fonda masturbating furiously to a photo of him taking a photo of a band. Set is from 8:05 to approximately 8:05:15. Guest list only.
Upcoming Shows: Stanton Warriors (3/20), George Clinton + P Funk (3/21) Coachella 2015 (WK1), Underworld (Hollywood Bowl), Basement Jaxx (Hollywood Bowl), David Gilmour (Wherever I need to go)

I wouldn't say exploded, but has surely risen. I've been a fan of his for year and have seen in him in Europe. He's super talented.
Listen, I'm all for it! Especially after last years lack luster line up.

There's actually no musicians on stage with me for my solo show, but when we played with the band in Oslo last weekend, I had to choose songs that fit a band. Now that I'm playing completely alone in SF, I'm allowed to choose more 'techy' and danceable songs.
his set at FYF was amazing once it finally got started. would love to see the full band version close the gobi

Luena, Moxico Province
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
|Municipality and town
|Moxico Province
|Time zone
Luena (pre-1975: Luso) is a town located in east central Angola. It is the administrative capital of Moxico Province. While no exact figures are available, estimates on the population of the city varies from 60,000 to 200,000 residents, including an unknown number of refugees from the Angolan Civil War that officially ended in 2002.
Jonas Savimbi[edit]
The Angolan town is best known as the resting place of former UNITA rebel leader Jonas Savimbi, who was shot and killed in military conflict with Angolan government troops on February 22, 2002. Later on January 3, 2008, Savimbi's tomb was vandalised and four members of the youth wing of the MPLA were charged and arrested.[1]

Not height so much, but if a guy is only 130 lbs, even at age 17, there is only so much room for him to fill out.
Tools like hitting and fielding are important, but how do you measure them? Only through stats? If that were the case there'd be no need for scouts, you'd just promote the players who have performed the best.
The reason every one in the minor league system projected Drew Stubbs as a potential 20 HR guy, even though he couldn't hit 20 homers at various stages in the minors if you spotted him the first 15 is because of his physical tools.
Torreyes may be the exception, but the exception gets treated differently than the rule. Whereas the rule is treated as a top propsect until he proves that he isn't, the exception won't be treated as a top prospect until he proves he is. And even then there will be skepticism.

Let's see what happens......
A few items on my bucket list.... - Go to as many beaches in the world as I possibly can. - Find the world's best Burrito. - Kayak down white water rapids. - Scuba dive on the Great Barrier Reef. - Zip line through the rain forest. I love to have fun, go on adventures and try not to get tripped up on the small hiccups in life. I believe you get out of life what you put into it, so I give everything my all and live by the motto "Go Big or Go Home". I would love to find a great guy to enjoy the ride with! I love getting out and doing new things and will try anything once, well, almost anything. I recently started boxing, recently fell in love with SUP and plan to get my scuba certification this summer. I'm just as comfortable rocking a killer dress as I am jeans, a t-shirt and some chucks. In my free time I'm hanging out at the beach, enjoying the great outdoors (especially the water), going dancing, playing/watching sports (GO GIANTS!!) and no matter what the adventure I'm always hanging out with great friends and family. My friends and family mean everything to me and there isn't anything I wouldn't do for them. I am loyal, honest, and a little sarcastic, bonus points if you can dish it back. I like a guy's guy who is family oriented, loyal, honest and loving. Confidence is sexy, cockiness not so much. Love a guy who makes the first move, so if you like what you've read don't be shy...

Product Reviews
Christian Book Previews.com5 Stars Out Of 5March 3, 2006Christian Book Previews.comJoseph Skip Ryan, minister at Park Cities Presbyterian Church in Dallas, is passionate about leading worship and as a result has authored the book titled Worship: Beholding the Beauty of the Lord. He has also written That You May Believe: New Life in the Son (Studies in the Gospel of John). Within these pages, Ryan covers questions about worship including: why should we worship, what constitutes worship, what should it not be, is our worship weak, can we create a spark let alone a fire, how do we need to prepare for worship, and do we really know who we are dealing with here - with God? Ryan says, What you are really doing in worship is joining in with Gods elect, including the angels. If I keep that in mind alone, I find I have a new attitude about worship. He emphasizes that worship should change us. How empty it is to go without that change worship can and should bring! When Ryan reminds us that we praise what we love, I felt a new challenge to worship and I think you will, too. I recommend Worship for ministry leaders, as well as members of congregations, to dig deeper into what worship is all about and how to be in a true state of praise.

Many buying into rent-to-own idea during recession
Rent-to-own idea gaining converts
Hard times mean many can no longer use credit for big purchases
, Copyright 2009 Houston Chronicle |
July 13, 2009
Photo By Michael Paulsen/ChronicleEdgar Gonzalez fills out an application to buy a 42-inch flat screen TV from Aaron's. He said he will buy a bedroom set for his sons, Edgar Jr., 3, left, and Aden, 1, after he pays off the TV.
Theresa Jones doesn't own her living room furniture or the bed she sleeps in: She rents them.
The 26-year-old mother of three used to rely on credit cards to pay for the things she couldn't afford outright. But when the recession hit, and she moved to Houston from Mississippi to search for work, she decided to try a new approach: rent-to-own.
The recession is driving an upsurge in the rent-to-own business. Aaron's Inc., the nation's second-largest rental retailer, had a record-breaking first quarter, with a 12 percent increase in same-store sales and nearly 60 percent earnings increase.
Many of the new customers tumbled from solid perches in the middle class and fell on hard times when the economy collapsed. They are short on cash, and, more importantly, credit.
"The subprime lending and credit cards gave people access to cash they didn't have," said Aaron's CEO Robin Loudermilk. "When the economy adjusted, those people came our way."
Laura Champine, an analyst with the New York-based Cowen & Co., called the first-quarter increase at Aaron's "the biggest upside surprise I've seen in eight years of covering the stock."
And the company's growth was not tied to any new business strategy, she said.
"That was what made the results interesting," she said. "It was nothing special they did to drive sales, just a good macroeconomic climate."
The nation's largest rental chain, Rent-A-Center, did not see a significant increase in business, possibly because of differences in the companies' business models.
Rent-A-Center, with over 3,000 stores, and Aaron's, with just under 1,600, rent furniture, electronics and home appliances. Rent-A-Center customers pay rent weekly, Aaron's customers pay monthly.
Those who pay the rent for a set period, typically ranging from seven to 30 months, own the merchandise. If they don't keep up payments, the store reclaims the item.
Aaron's get high end
While both chains target the demographic earning between $15,000 and $50,000 in annual household income, Aaron's skims from the top of that earning pool, while Rent-A-Center draws more from the bottom, said Bill Baldwin, a Dallas-based analyst.
"Aaron's deals with higher-end customers. They're getting the customers that were once bankable and now aren't, because they've had their credit cut off," Baldwin said.
On the lower end of the spectrum, low-wage workers who have lost jobs are no longer able to afford their rental payments, so they're ending their agreements early and returning the merchandise.
Rent-A-Center's spokesman, Xavier Dominicis, points out that the company is at least breaking even in a climate that is driving many other retailers out of business. "We are holding our own in a difficult economy," he said.
Analysts say the rent-to-own model tends to perform strongly in both busts and booms, and not just to fill basic needs. Even in the recession, Aaron's most popular items are big screen televisions.
$90 a week
Theresa Jones is sticking to the basics. She pays Rent-A-Center $90 a week for a living room set and a bedroom set, an expense the nursing assistant can just barely afford.
She plans to keep paying the rent until she owns the sets, although she knows it will cost more than it would to buy it outright at a furniture store. If she could afford to do that, she would.
Edgar and Cynthia Gonzalez favor Aaron's, where they signed an agreement Thursday to pay $78.99 a month for a 42-inch flat-screen TV. They also eyed a bedroom set for their two young sons, but said they will wait to pay off the TV before taking on another rental agreement.
"When I was working in a refinery, I was able to buy everything," said Edgar Gonzalez, who was laid off from his job as a scaffolder and now earns half his old salary, working as an auto parts salesman.
Critics of rent-to-own call it predatory.
"By the time all is said and done, an oven you could get at a retail store for $390 you end up paying close to $1,000 for," said David Rothstein with Policy Matters Ohio, which published a study of rent-to-own practices in June. "You're already working with a product that has an inflated cash price, and it's used."
No limit on fees
Texas law requires rent-to-own stores to tell customers whether merchandise is new or used, but it doesn't set any limits on the fees they can charge. Rothstein's group advocates caps on rent.
"Just because this is an option doesn't mean it has to be such a costly one," Rothstein said. "You shouldn't be able to exploit people because they don't have good credit."
While part of rent-to-own's appeal is its freedom from credit checks, industry leaders say another draw is the flexibility of a no-obligation contract, especially in uncertain times.
"You see some customers who have cash or credit," he said, "but they don't know where they're going to be in six months, and want to save that credit."

|This book aims to address this neglect in the European context with concentration on the UK case. Conceptually, This book explores the meanings of diaspora and whether this is an appropriate concept to refer to Latin American migration to Europe in particular. It also examines the utility of transnationality and transmigration as useful in explaining and assessing the realities of the movement of Latin Americans around the world. The book provides important conceptual discussions of some key themes in relation to Latin American migrants in general, such as poverty, negotiating institutions, family life and domestic service and mainly in relation to the European context. Perhaps most importantly in terms of the state of current knowledge on the topic, it uncovers the lives of Latin American migrants in the UK, which have remained largely hidden to date.
From the Publisher:
This book is the first edited collection on Latin American migration to Europe, with a specific focus on the United Kingdom. The collection brings together a group of established and emerging scholars from various disciplines who have been forging new paths of research on Latin Americans. Conceptually, the book explores the broader relevance of notions of transnationalism, diaspora, and integration among Latin Americans in Europe. The chapters examine a range of issues, such as the role of transnational families, political and religious transnationalism, intergenerational and gendered wellbeing among migrants, gender-based violence, place-based identities, labor market experiences, and super-diversity.

all good
great item
Didn't like this when first tried it but am really loving it now. I find this works best on damp hair, I can use a lot more and it still doesn't look greasy or lank and my hair looks glossy and feels lusciously soft I can't stop touching it. I have very thick, wiry, coarse wavy layered hair, this accentuates my layers and reduces frizz. Between washes I use a tiny bit on dry hair to add sheen. Really lovely stuff!
Great service, fantastic product and speedy delivery :)
Yummy smell and yes very light.
Very nice product, light for the hair and smells lovely
I love it ,it's extremely light and moisturising
It goes on very light and gives great definition to my curls.
Good range of products, free delivery
It dried my hair out
Always excellent prices compared to other companies. Fast and efficient delivery. Only complaint is i don't seem to have yet worked out how to get the free gifts sometimes on offer with products.
Product is very good for Afro hair which I have. It leaves my hair feeling very moisturised which is essential in order to combat dryness / brittleness. Very good product need. Will infinite to purchase his via the feel unique website. Thank you
Lovely smell, texture agrees with my hair. Will use again.
I have just started to use it and it serves the purpose.
Delivered as stated well packaged and precise order

Windows 8.1 Update 1 leaks: Boots to the Desktop by default, allows Metro apps to be minimized February 3, 2014 at 8:37 am
The latest build of Windows 8.1 Update 1 has leaked, revealing many of the changes that Microsoft hopes will make Metro less painful for desktop users. The biggest change appears to be that Windows 8.1 Update 1 will boot straight to the Desktop interface by default, reducing Metro to its rightful role as a full-screen Start menu. This, of course, would be a complete 180 from the original release of Windows 8, which defaulted to the Metro interface and lacked an easy way to see the Desktop after logging in.
You'll be amazed at how these government researchers turned your smartphone's camera into a radiation dose meter January 13, 2014 at 9:52 am
Government researchers have written an Android app that lets your phone's camera act as a gamma radiation detector. We're not talking about the same quality of detection as a commercial detector or dosimeter, but if you spend a lot of time in planes, or you live in an area with high levels of natural background radiation (granite, limestone, high altitude), you might soon use your smartphone as a cheap, fairly accurate gamma radiation detector. Such a smartphone app could be a huge boon for emergency services who are first on the scene at a radiation leak and aren't equipped with the correct radiation gear, too.

Delicious irony: iPhone 5S and iOS 7 plagued by Blue Screen of Death October 11, 2013 at 2:26 pm
In the most incalculably ironic twist of fate ever devised by the computer gods, the iPhone 5S with iOS 7 is afflicted by a bug that results in a random Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) and then a complete reboot. While the iPhone BSOD lacks the mumbo-jumbo of mostly useless information that's present on the Windows BSOD, the similarities between the iPhone 5S/iOS 7 and Windows BSODs are shocking — even the shade of blue is virtually the same.

FILM; When the Camera Goes Behind the Looking Glass
By LEWIS BEALE
Published: December 9, 2001
IN the live-action prologue to an animated 1951 version of ''Alice in Wonderland,'' the Rev. Charles Dodgson and his friends, the Liddells, are seen drifting lazily down an English river in a skiff. ''Tell me a story,'' says the Liddells' young daughter, Alice, to Dodgson, better known to history as Lewis Carroll. ''One filled with animals and nonsense.''
''Animals and nonsense,'' replies Dodgson in the British-made film. ''What could be pleasanter?''
And he launches into a recitation of ''Alice in Wonderland,'' the classic children's tale written by the real Dodgson in 1865 to amuse the real Alice Liddell. The story has entertained readers and moviegoers ever since, and the script's comment about what makes Carroll's work so pleasing goes a long way toward explaining why. But if a series of ''Alice in Wonderland'' films beginning Dec. 22 at the American Museum of the Moving Image in Queens is any indication, Carroll's work is about much more than Mad Hatters and playful versifying.
''There's something so cinematic about the story,'' said David Schwartz, chief curator at the museum. ''It combines dream and reality. And there's something modern about the story. It was written by someone playing around with conventions, because there's this element of satire. There's a surrealistic quality. In a way, the films of Buñuel have some of the spirit of Lewis Carroll.''
Carroll's book is actually ''very subversive,'' noted Richard Kelly, a professor of English at the University of Tennessee and author of ''Lewis Carroll,'' a 1990 biography and critical study.
What Carroll has done, he said, ''is to undermine some of the basic assumptions humans have about time, space, body size, geography, logic. He even stands royalty on its head. And the relationship between adults and children gets reversed -- Alice is a very outspoken little girl who has broken free of the constraints of Victorian society.''
Carroll's work has been interpreted and reinterpreted since the dawn of cinema. The first known silent version was released in 1903, and there have been numerous stage, television and film adaptations ever since. ''Alice's Adventures in Wonderland'' even inspired the famous Jefferson Airplane drug song ''White Rabbit.'' But Mr. Schwartz maintains that there has never been a truly great movie version, ''because the story is so free-flowing and unpredictable,'' he said.
Mark Burstein, who edits The Knight Letter, the journal of the Lewis Carroll Society of North America, said, ''It is a dream, and dreams are difficult to translate into another medium.'' He added that the episodic nature of the book, which is ''not really a story, more a series of small vignettes,'' also presents a major challenge to filmmakers.
There has also been the problem of casting: many of the actresses chosen to play Alice have been teenagers or even older. In the 1951 British version, for example, Alice was portrayed by Carol Marsh, who was 21 at the time. The sight of the mature and quite attractive Ms. Marsh running around in a Victorian-era dress meant for a 10-year-old is off-putting, to say the least.
Yet the museum's series offers its share of interesting ''Alice'' films, from the well known to the obscure. At the pop end of the spectrum is the Disney studios' 1951 animated version, with its bright colors, familiar tunes (''I'm Late,'' ''The Unbirthday Song'') and lively voice work from the likes of Ed Wynn and Jerry Colonna (as the Mad Hatter and March Hare, respectively). But for all its entertainment value, this version seems essentially clueless, a cheery cartoon which chooses to ignore the dark undertones in Carroll's work.
Taking the opposite tack is the Czech puppet master Jan Svankmajer's 1988 ''Alice.'' A totally surreal excursion into the nightmarish aspects of the book, Svankmajer's film is filled with images of decay and death: bones, raw meat, crawling bugs, broken crockery, all sorts of bric-a-brac and what looks like wartime rubble constitute the mise en scène, while the eerie soundtrack is filled with creaks, thumps and bangs. It's a very Kafkaesque take on the work, in which the live-action Alice (who actually looks the right age) is surrounded by ghoulish puppets and chases after the White Rabbit through a mud-splattered terrain filled with holes that look like bomb craters.
Mr. Schwartz calls this ''Alice'' the most compelling film in the series. ''In most of Svankmajer's films there's a real fascination with objects and things coming to life,'' he said. ''That's what drew him to Alice. If you accept that everything is happening in her mind, she's a person in this world of objects that come to life. The objects have a more ominous quality than in any of the other versions.''
Not that other filmmakers have ignored this chaotic aspect, the sense that the laws of the universe have been overturned. The true curio of the series is the 1951 British version, produced by the puppeteer Lou Bunin and released a month after -- and completely overshadowed by -- the Disney version. Shot in England and France with British actors, this film features that live-action prologue set in Oxford, which highlights the relationship between Dodgson and Alice Liddell while also showing how real-life characters morphed into objects of Carrollian fantasy.

Both struggling teams are in a must-win situation

Neither one of these teams has played well lately and neither looks like a championship contender, but both are nevertheless fighting to get into the postseason. Both, however, are coming off disappointing losses and struggling to gain any momentum.
It should be entertaining to watch New York QB Aaron Garcia challenge Colorado's secondary, which is led by DB Rashad Floyd. QB John Dutton and the Colorado offense struggle when they ...

early 14c., related to Middle Dutch spoiten "to spout," North Frisian spütji "spout, squirt," Swedish sputa "to spout," and probably Middle Dutch spuwen "to spit" (see spew). Meaning "to talk, declaim" is recorded from 1610s.

Professional dancers go to daily class at the start of every day of their professional lives. It is where they warm up, where they practice and refine their skills. It is where they meet their compatriots, where they catch up togther and where the discipline and motivation found in dance classes work together to hone the dancers skills.
Deborah Bull, a former principal of the Royal Ballet says in her book 'The Everyday Dancer' the following about daily class: "It's what we do. The ignition key that starts every day. Without class, nothing else happens. It is our daily bread, both rigour and ritual to the dancer, as the Lord's Prayer is to the Priest: an unfailing constant and inspiration, a reminder of the perfection to which we aspire…"
So what we want in this school is for the students to talk about 'Going to CLASS'. We will ensure that standards of beahvour are consistent throughout CLASS, we will welcome visitors to CLASS, but above all, by their coming to CLASS we will want to see boys leave us with an excellent academic education, highly motivated and secure in their learning and with a love of dance that will continue whatever route they decide to follow in the future.
so, we really do want to say to you, 'Welcome to CLASS'.
What do you think about our proposals? take a look at our site and please share or follow us on facebook or twitter. If you are interested in knowing more, taking part in the school or are interested in having your son attend the school, please let us know.

I want to create a custom theme that would have static images to the left and right of the content on the page over a black background. Their size would be fixed and the content could either remain fixed but I would prefer it to scale to the dimensions of the users desktop. The main content would have a white background. I would like to use this design with different images on certain pages and I would like no border lines between the sections of the main content. Both Builder and Flexx look like great programs and are the same price right now. Can either one or both of these themes give me what I want?
If you need an example of what I am talking about, go to www.huskers.com, I would like to be able to make something like that. I know Dreamweaver and can make a good looking site but I don't know code so if this will do what I need in a theme that would be great.
Posted 17 December 2010 - 04:22 AM
This can be done in Builder.
But it won't be possible to create it in a WYSWYG way like how are you used to in DreamWeaver.
You need to be comfortable w/ HTML, CSS and basics of PHP.

About Remnants
Remnants Of A Disaster is our first feature project, it was completed in August 2014. The film was shot sporadically in Castleford, Leeds, Harrogate and Whitley Bay between June 2013 and July 2014. Post production (editing, VFX, sound design, music score) was carried out entirely by Roger Armstrong, who also wrote, shot, produced, directed, appeared in and catered the film.
Remnants Of A Disaster free to watch on YouTube.
Logline: A combat simulation becomes a surreal battle for survival and sanity when an experimental drug therapy goes wrong for two traumatised assassins.
Synopsis: A suicidal assassin battles her insane drug addicted partner, a psychopathic scientist and his deranged masked slaves for sanity, salvation and redemption. What they don't realise is that they are trapped in a hallucinogenic consciousness experiment run by a private security corporation. 28 Days Later meets A Field In England, a micro-budget, psychedelic, sci-fi film shot in disused industrial buildings in West Yorkshire and North East England featuring a stunning electronic/synth soundtrack from several notable UK musicians. Part sci-fi, part social commentary it is a visually stunning, surreal and thought provoking film.
Tagline: For most people losing their mind is the end of the world, for others it's an opportunity.

press release
Commonwealth Secretary-General Kamalesh Sharma today deplored the reported attempt at a military coup in Lesotho
"There is zero tolerance in the Commonwealth of any unconstitutional overthrow of an elected government. Democracy and the rule of law are central tenets of our association, as set out in the Commonwealth Charter, and any action to subvert constitutional civilian rule is unacceptable," he said.
The Secretary-General urged the military in Lesotho to respect civilian authority, constitutional order and the rule of law. "It is imperative that the military take urgent and immediate steps to return the country to civilian rule and return to the barracks".
Mr Sharma recalled the efforts of the Commonwealth, in recent months, to help establish a framework for governance reforms and take forward the country's development agenda. He said that his Special Envoy to Lesotho, Dr Rajen Prasad, is in touch with the key political leaders and remains closely engaged, with a view to help resolve the political situation.
The Secretary-General said that the Chairman of the Commonwealth Ministerial Action Group (CMAG) was being kept informed of developments and CMAG would work towards a discussion on the Lesotho situation as soon as possible, taking into account the position and diplomatic efforts of the Southern African Development Community (SADC) and the African Union (AU).

The Engineering Leadership Program has launched a new website at http://www.colorado.edu/engineering/leadership
The new website provides excellent information about the Engineering Leadership Program and includes Student Perspectives, including that of Joni Sorli.
Jeni's ELP Experience:
"The Engineering Leadership Program is truly unique in that it not only gives students the freedom to, but also encourages them in becoming, the type of leader they want to be in the future. From my experience, the goal is not to fit a student into a predetermined "leadership mold," but rather to allow the student the freedom to create their own mold throughout their education by supplying them with the tools and support. Through classes, mentoring, and talks, students are provided with multiple opportunities to broaden their horizons and tune their education in leadership to fit the areas they desire.
"The directors, leaders, program organizers, and professors in the Engineering Leadership Program are extremely helpful and knowledgeable. They have already helped me in multiple aspects of my college career, and genuinely want to see students succeed. The addition of the Engineering Leadership Program and Certificate to the College of Engineering demonstrates the university's dedication to its students, as well as its desire to help them broaden their education beyond their degree and apply it to the world around them. As students, our futures consist of much more than the degree we are learning, and an understanding of the impact we can have on those around us will be critical to our futures."

Radon Mitigation Systems: How to Perform Radon Remediation to Remove Harmful Levels of Indoor Radon
As reported in Best Practices Guide to Residential Construction:
The EPA and the U.S. Geological Survey have rated every county in the United States as Zone 1 to 3 for radon risk. Links to state maps with county by- county risk levels can be found at www.epa.gov/ radon/zonemap.html.
The EPA recommends that all homes in Zone 1 counties be built with radon-resistant features, which can be easily upgraded to a radon remediation system if needed.
Since homes in Zones 2 and 3 can also have high levels, it is best to check with your state radon office to see if they are aware of any local "hot spots."
The techniques for radon-resistant building vary for different foundation types and site conditions, but all contain the six basic elements described below.
Following these steps creates a passive soil depressurization system, which sufficiently lowers radon levels in about 50% of homes requiring mitigation.
If radon levels need to be lowered further, the system can be easily converted to an active system by adding an inline fan, which can meet the target levels in nearly all cases (see Figure at above left, showing a typical radon mitigation system installation).
The goal of radon remediation is to lower the average indoor radon gas level to less than 4 pCi/L, and preferably 2 pCi/L.
A post mitigation radon test of 2 to 7 days should be done within 30 days of system installation. For an accurate reading, all windows and doors must be closed 12 hours before and during the test, except for normal use for entry and exit.
-- Adapted with permission from Best Practices Guide to Residential Construction.
Watch out: home ventilation systems, particularly powerful exhaust fans, can subvert a typical sub-slab suction type radion mitigation system by creating negative air pressures within the building. The radon system needs to be able to handle these pressure variations in the home.
See VENTILATION, BALANCED for an optimum approach to bringing in fresh outdoor air without increasing heating or cooling costs and without risking subverting the radon mitigation system.
Also see BACKDRAFTING HEATING EQUIPMENT for warnings about potentially fatal carbon monoxide hazards if exhaust fans cause back-drafting of heating appliance exhaust into the building.

"I'm pleased with how my son's birth announcements came out. I liked how I could put multiple pictures on it. The quality of the printing was excellent and the pictures were clear and had no issues. I do wish this card came with an option to put a picture on the back though."
"I received several compliments on this birth announcement. It has a sweet, soft design that is perfect for a little girl - very high quality."
"I looked at hundreds of different birth announcements and just fell in love with this one. It is super cute and not too large. We selected the red and I like the color. I love that we could add a few photos to the back as well. Shipping was super fast."
"Love how the card is for a birth announcement and holiday greeting! Saves new parents money in cards and postage so they can buy more diapers!"
"It's BEAUTIFUL. The graphic is beautiful and looks nice printed (not faded, not too bold), the paper is really nice quality. It took me 2 minutes to put in my info, they set up the design and wording. So easy and fast, I really like their design interface. The card itself is very simple and elegant."

Well-cut and supportive! More of a true purple than shown. Now just hoping that it holds up as well as my beloved Ceeb high-neck suits!
This suit is also true to size. Love the purple color and is the best chlorine resistant suit I've ever owned.
Love this suit. High neck doesn't cut, but covers well. Legs are conservative and don't ride up.Clasp stays hooked and it holds up well to chlorine. Nice support in the cups for bigger bust. I bought this in a size 20 for length, but it fits well overall.
I bought according to my measurements and the suit was uncomfortably tight.
Great coverage and great for water aerobics.Easy to slip on and get out of.
I love everything about this suit. The fit is true to size, it holds everything in, the fabric doesn't retain huge amounts of water and I've gotten lots of compliments on the color. I swim at least 5 times a week in 2 different pools and am hoping it does well as far as the chlorine-resistance goes but haven't had it long enough to know yet.
I will be using this suit for lap swimming 3 times a week. I am a size 14 (sometimes a 12), slightly long in the waist, and wear DDD bra. This suit fit perfectly. I have had other suits made of polyester or chlorine resistant material that withstood the test of time. However, in most cases the lining (not the suit material) breaks down making the suit unusable. Will have to see what this suit does.
The only issue I have with this suit is that it feels a bit too short. I have a long torso, so it would probably fit well on someone else. The suit is comfortable and keeps its shape. I hope to use it for a couple of summers.
I've looked for years for a suit that will cover my DDDs fully through a whole workout. Finally, this suit is it! I use it for vigorous lap swimming and the girls stay fully covered in the front and sides through my whole workout. I would give this five stars if the legs were cut a little higher. But I'm happy to live with a slightly more conservative leg because the rest of the suit is so comfortable, secure and nicely styled. The material is soft too. I've had other poly suits that felt really stiff but this one isn't at all. It has just enough give to make it easy to get on and off even when wet and tired.
