New York Fashion Week Fall 2009 – We're here!
Hi everyone! I just wanted to do a quick post to let you all know Pursebuzz arrived safe & sound bright and early yesterday morning! We weren't able to check into our hotel (the lovely Waldorf Astoria) at 7am, but we totally ransacked their parlor (aka the bathroom) to get ready for the day and made it our living quarters for an hour as we did makeup and hair.
Yesterday, we met up with Koren (EnKore Makeup) for coffee and breakfast, and then all three of us headed down to MAC PRO via the subway (!!). I'm from California, so public transportation is low on the list of things to-do, so this was my first time on the NY subway system. My first subway experience was in D.C. just three years ago or so! With Koren as our guide, we totally made it to MAC PRO on time and ready for the meet & greet.
I want to give a huge, huge thank you for everyone who turned out at the meet & greet! It was really exciting to meet everyone and talk shop. It's really flattering and feels like a total honor to be able to interact with my readers on a one-on-one basis. Those kinds of experiences are just SO rewarding and make me so happy to have started this blog! I also want to shout out and thank Bradford, MAC PRO's Manager, for letting us use the facilities and giving us a super informative tour and background to MAC PRO! (Pictures are forthcoming, I promise!) Makeup artist Christopher Drummond also stopped by MAC PRO to meet up with us!
We totally got lost later on when we were trying to take the subway to some events we had planned, which resulted us in being so late that we missed our appointment! We made the best of it, and we ended up at Times Square with Koren (my first time there, yay!). We spent most of our time at Sephora, oogling over all of the products. After that, Pursebuzz and I got some pizza and Starbucks, headed back to the hotel, and tried not to fall asleep in the cab 😉
Now we are off to start Sunday! We're hoping to get some pictures and more posts up tonight Hope you are all having a fabulous weekend!!

Have You Seen How Hot the Girl from 'The Ring' is Now?
You probably remember Daveigh Chase from her incredibly creepy role as Samara in 'The Ring.'
You probably remember Daveigh Chase from her incredibly creepy role as Samara in 'The Ring.'
'Walking Dead' is back, and we're stoked! Because we're dudes, we spend a lot of time thinking about zombie babes -- You too? Here's our quick, 10-step guide to dating the undead.
Halloween isn't just about candy and haunted houses—it's about creating lifelong memories with your kids. You can take them to a pumpkin patch and carve a pumpkin, you can pick out a design together and then build the best costume ever. There are so many wholesome activities to share with your darling children.
Or ... you could traumatize them. Let's not forget, Halloween is also about playing magnificent pranks against your naturally unsuspecting kids. Here are 10 ways to traumatize them this Halloween:
There's one thing we know for sure about little kids-- they can make practically anything seem adorable. Scrunched-up, twisted sour faces? Check. A boppin' on a bed rendition of Michael Jackson's 'Thriller'? You betcha! Although we're a little dumbfounded as to how this "everything is ridiculously adorable" thing actually happens, we can't help but be sucked into the cuteness every darn time. This is especially true when it comes to Halloween.
With Halloween just a few weeks away and our obsession with dressed-up animals still going strong, we have been led into the most wonderful of all Tumblr lands with our latest discovery.
Here's one more point against Mitt Romney -- the streets this Halloween are going to be flooded with women in "sexy" Big Bird costumes, thanks to his comments at the recent presidential debate.
It's October and you know what that means: hot cider, pumpkin beer, candy corn and of course, Halloween. In the spirit of the holiday here are some creepy and intriguing horror movies perfect for the Halloween season.
As Halloween draws near, shut the lights off, grab your pet, a well-worn blanket, and curl up to read about some of the most spine-tingling and frightening places on Earth. As the ghost stories of each place draw you in, be aware of that disembodied footstep or strange rapping noise-it may just be a spirit trying to reach out to you!
I love Halloween and the mischief that comes with it.
With fall in the air, everybody is ready to watch some horror movies. But this year, instead of just watching, you can actually be in a horror flick. Check out the details of the casting call for the Flint-based film, 'Monsters On Main Street.'
Do you ever have the urge to hunt a werewolf? If so, you are in luck. The event agency Chillisauce is now offering an overnight werewolf hunting experience.

In Flemington they hired 2 part time guidance counselors to process these claims. Most of the claims are in response to incidents occurring outside of the school building and school hours.
There are so many things wrong with this story.
1. If 98.5% of employees any place thought the boss was doing a lousy job, it is time to reevaluate.
2. They do not trust him or see his lack of vision...in return he gets a raise? What would have happened if he was any good at his job? Would they build a statue? Coronation? He got a raise? What?
3. The board could give a bonus but they have not figured out any sort of frame work for this. Sounds to me like they are giving it to him already but don't want to say $168,000 salary.
4. They hired someone to assist special education that is not certified to teach special education? I see he does have lots of experience in language arts but doesn't the district already have a language arts supervisor? Couldn't they just give the responsibilities to that person?
5. Maybe they should hire a human resources department to eliminate candidates without experience.
This whole situation stinks. The Democrat should find out if there are any other districts in Hunterdon County with all these supervisor positions - if not the board should be removed. I was not at the board meeting but this article sounds pretty damning. Where is Governor Christie on this corruption?
Incorrect about the tenure/pension information. Tenure does not apply if you break the law. The district terminates you - you also forfeit pension.
The teachers, secretaries, nurses etc...contract in the district expired over a year ago. Not sure how the super is offered an extension so early.
Also send letters to the editor. The board puts a time limit on citizens speaking and will not answer questions.
Public comment is great. I hope that this gets the Democrat to start to attend the BOE meetings again.

Mazda's Capacitor-Based i-ELOOP Regenerative Braking System
Man, I want this so bad. STI 's should come out like this to the states.
Pretty sweet but at 66K rather have a used GTR, M3, Z06, ZL1, and so on....
Japanese prices are always much higher than US prices.
it better be a hoot for double the price of a WRX STI
Pretty sweet. If it drives anything like past JDM special models, it should be a hoot.
Whenever Subaru releases a special edition thats for Japan only, the upgrades trickle down to U.S. spec cars. I'm hoping to see these power upgrades before they discontinue the STi when Subaru decides to make the WRX its own model.
I'll take the white one that's pictured... mmmm.
white one, no spoiler, additional set of snow tires please

Rolls-Royce Radicals
Responsible Wealth, a Boston-based nonprofit, is convincing many affluent Americans to challenge the very rules that made them rich. Far from mere check writers or "limousine liberals," these wealthy activists work against their self-interest to stamp out inequality at its source: unfair laws and policies. Their unique strategy of using privilege to contest privilege not only has attracted the rich and famous to their ranks, but also has bent the ears of senators and CEOs.
At the modest offices of Responsible Wealth, a Boston-based nonprofit, Mike Lapham stops at a bulletin board covered with clippings and notices. Lapham, the organization's co-director, points out a favorite cartoon, in which one pipe-puffing gentleman says to the other, "I used to ask myself what I could do to help my fellow man, but I couldn't think of anything that wouldn't put me to considerable inconvenience."
Responsible Wealth's goal is to counteract the mind-set that this cartoon...

2014 Coastal Carolina Women's Golf at Big South Championship (Round 1) [April 13, 2014]
Katie Quinney is in her seventh year as Coastal Carolina University's Head Women's Golf Coach, leading the squad to three Big South Conference Championships (2009, 2011, 2013), four NCAA Tournament appearances (2009, 2010, 2011, 2013) and a NCAA Championship appearance in 2011. Additionally, under the direction of Quinney, Brittany Henderson competed in the 2012 NCAA Central Regional as an at-large individual. Quinney has a vast amount of postseason experience, now having been a part of nine NCAA Regional teams, including appearances with the Chanticleers in 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2013 along with her five seasons as a Florida State player and coach.
"I am very excited about what we have going at Coastal Carolina," Quinney commented. "The program has shown it can make it to the NCAAs and I look to make that a reality year-in and year-out as well as taking it to the next level. The Grand Strand is also a great area to recruit to, including the numerous top-level golf courses like our home course Grande Dunes, so I anticipate having quality recruits joining our ranks quickly."
Quinney's 2014 campaign culminated with a second-place finish at the Big South Conference Championship behind eventual NCAA National Championship qualifier Campbell. The Chanticleers finished the season with a 301.73 scoring average, ranking third-best in the CCU record book. The Chants also recorded top-10 finishes in seven of 10 team tournaments. Quinney guided Lena Schaeffner, Marissa Hinchman and Frida Castillo to All-Big South honors. In addition, Schaeffner, Castillo and Bailey Cocca earned Big South All-Championship Team plaudits via their top-five finishes at the conference tournament.
The 2013 team was one of Quinney's best in her tenure at Coastal Carolina. The squad won the program's sixth Big South title and advanced to the NCAA Central Regional, finishing eighth. The Chanticleers closed the season ranked 40th by Golfweek and 37th by Golfstat. The Chants claimed tournament titles at the Purdue Mount Vintage Invitational, M&F Bank Rebel Intercollegiate and Big South Championship. The season also featured top-five finishes in eight of 13 events and 11 top-10 finishes. The 2013 Chanticleers also set the CCU record with a 299.44 per round scoring average along with the Big South Championship 54-hole record with a 16-over 880.
Under Quinney's direction senior Brittany Henderson claimed the 2013 Big South Golfer and Scholar-Athlete of the Year honors. Henderson also won her second consecutive individual Big South Championship title. Joining Henderson as Big South award winners were Jessica Alexander (All-Big South), Lena Schaeffner (All-Freshman Team) and Marissa Hinchman (All-Freshman Team). Furthermore, Henderson, Alexander and Schaeffner were named to the inaugural Big South All-Championship team by virtue of their top-five event finishes.
Quinney's 2012 team placed second at the Big South Championship, while Brittany Henderson captured individual medalist honors in record-setting fashion. Henderson set the Big South Championship 54-hole record with a 2-under 214 and also tied former Chanticleer Ann Maness for the single round record with a 68 over the second round of competition. Overall, Henderson, Jessica Alexander, Kaitlin Higginbotham and Frida Castillo earned All-Big South honors. Additionally, Quinney directed Henderson to an at-large berth to the NCAA Central Regional, marking Coastal first individual at-large Regional representative since 2008.
Quinney's 2011 squad was the most successful in school and Big South history as the Chanticleers became the first squad in Coastal Carolina and Big South history to qualify for the NCAA Championships. The Chants concluded the season ranked as the No. 24 team in the nation to mark the highest team finish in both school and league history. Along the way Quinney led Coastal to the program's fifth Big South Championship and a fourth place finish at the NCAA East Regional. Furthermore, Quinney directed the Chants to top 10 finishes in seven of the 10 tournaments in which they competed. Coastal Carolina won overall team titles at the Jacksonville University Labor Day Shootout and the UCF Challenge, while finishing runners-up at the Palmetto Intercollegiate and the Kinderlou Forest Challenge.
Under the tutelage of Quinney, Coastal swept the 2011 Big South postseason awards as Jessica Alexander was tabbed Golfer of the Year, Courtney Boe earned Freshman of the Year and Quinney was named Coach of the Year. Additionally, Kaitlin Higginbotham earned All-Big South honors and Alicia Grier was named the Big South All-Academic team.
Quinney led the Chanticleers to a second place finish in the Big South in 2010 and helped Coastal Carolina finish tied for 19th at the NCAA East Regional. Under Quinney's direction, three Chanticleers were named to the All-Big South Conference Team, including Big South Women's Golfer of the Year Aruka Felgueroso. In fact, Felgueroso became just the second golfer in conference history to win the award three different times.
Before arriving in Conway in January 2009, Quinney was in her third coaching season at Florida State, helping coach the Seminoles into the NCAA Tournament in both of her first two seasons as an assistant coach at her alma mater. In her third season on the Seminole's coaching staff she had been promoted to recruiting coordinator. In addition to working with two consecutive NCAA Tournament teams, she accompanied All-America Caroline Westrup to both of the last two NCAA Championships where the Seminoles' star has earned a pair of top-15 individual finishes.
Quinney is a 2004 Florida State graduate who received her degree in psychology after earning three varsity letters as a member of the Seminoles' starting line-up. Following her graduation she played professionally on the Futures, Asian and Canadian professional tours.
Quinney, who garnered All-ACC honors in 2004, is one of 11 players in school history to earn All-ACC honors. She finished with a career-low scoring average and posted three top-five individual finishes in receiving All-ACC honors as a senior. Quinney finished in third place in the Liz Murphey Collegiate, tied for fourth at the Ryder/Florida Championship and tied for fifth in the ACC Championship. She then finished in a tie for 12th place at the NCAA East Regional Championship to lead the Seminoles to a fourth-place finish and into the NCAA Championship for the third time in her career.
Quinney helped the Seminoles reach the NCAA Championship in 2002, 2003 and 2004 making her senior class one of only four in school history to play in consecutive NCAA Championships during their careers. Her career-best single-round score of 67 came during the second round of the spring 2004 ACC Championship while the best individual finish of her career came as a third place finish at the spring 2004 Liz Murphey Collegiate Classic and the fall 2003 Ann Rhoads/University of Alabama Intercollegiate.
During her career as a Seminole she played in three NCAA Championships, three NCAA Regionals, three ACC Championships and helped Florida State win three team championships (spring 2002 Ryder/Florida Championship, spring 2003 Ryder/Florida Championship and fall 2003 Ann Rhoads/University of Alabama Intercollegiate).
Quinney was a member of the NCAA All-Star Women's Golf Team that played in a series of tournaments in the Orient during the summer of 2003. She was one of only 10 golfers who played in the month-long tour. During their stay in the Orient, the team traveled to and played in Korea, Thailand, Japan and Hong Kong. The NCAA All-Stars played in a total of 16 different tournaments during their stay in the Orient. The tournaments consisted of pro-am and competitive matches against that country's all-stars.
The Jacksonville, Fla., native played in the U.S. Women's Amateur Championship three times and was named to the Trans America Athletic Conference All-Freshman team during her first collegiate season at Jacksonville University.
Quinney married her husband JR Nye in May of 2012.

Montgomery County, in cooperation with the Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission (M-NCPPC), through the County's Department of Transportation (MCDOT), seeks a qualified developer team for a mixed-use development of up to four County and M-NCPPC sites. The objective of this Request for Proposal (RFP) will be the construction of a government office building, a town square, public parking, as well as the private development of mixed-used, high quality, transit-oriented development within the Wheaton and Silver Spring Central Business Districts. This development will be consistent with the County's objectives of increased density, mixed-use, and appropriate levels of affordable housing.
Development of these properties in the two Central Business Districts is inter-related. Upon completion of a government office building in Wheaton, the M-NCPPC (MRO), currently situated in downtown Silver Spring at the corner of Georgia Avenue and Spring Street, will relocate to Wheaton. Development of the MRO site in Silver Spring will be contingent upon the issuance of a use and occupancy permit for the office building in Wheaton. Development of the MRO site in Silver Spring may commence following the issuance of the use and occupancy permit for the office building in Wheaton. However, proposals that meet the County's objectives need not include all four sites in order to be considered.

Konop to recommend Port Board nomineesWritten by Toledo Free Press Staff Writers | | email@example.com
Lucas County Commissioner Ben Konop said in a news release Sept. 29 he will recommend Dr. Lloyd Jacobs, President of the University of Toledo, John Szuch, Chairman of Fifth Third Bank of Northwestern Ohio, and Ron Rothenbuhler, Executive Director for the Regional Council of Carpenters and Democratic Party Chairman, to fill the county's open Port Authority positions.
"My three selections for the Port Board represent a diverse group of interests and bring years of educational, business, and labor leadership to the table," Konop said in the statement. "I am particularly pleased that Dr. Jacobs has agreed to serve on the board, as a stronger partnership between the University and Economic Development will strengthen the region."

Reason - I do not concur with ALL the langauage in the notice.
Litigation Lawyer
Best answer
I agree with the answers already provided. There is no legal or procedural requirement for you to sign any notice to quit or otherwise acknowledge service by signature. By law, a sherriff or constable can properly serve the notice to quit by handing it to you or by leaving it on your door and also mailing a copy to your last known address. If you do not agree with the content of the notice to quit, you should be prepared to contest any attempted eviction and consider contacting an attorney.
Contracts / Agreements Lawyer
No, you are not legally required to sign it. There isn't any legal penalty for not doing so. The notice to quit simply signals the intention of the landlord to terminate your tenancy. Based on the other posting you made, it appears that the notice was given timely. Signing a copy and returning it to the landlord would serve as evidence (for the landlord) that you timely received the notice to quit, but nothing more than that.

Answers provided on Avvo are intended for informational purposes only; they are not intended as legal advice and do not create an attorney-client relationship. The material is presented with the understanding and agreement that I am not engaged in rendering legal or other professional services by posting it.
Sometimes the lease states how you may be served with a notice, by mail or by leaving it at your door. In addition, these notices are often served by a sheriff or constable who is an uninterested party who could testify that you were served. Maybe your landlord did not use a sherrif or constable and wants to make sure you got notice of his/her intention to terminate your tenancy?
It is expensive and time consuming for a landlord to evict a tenant who does not voluntarily leave. If you need more time, then you should ask for it. If you and the landlord agree put it in writing.
My answer, above, was meant to help you understand some of the legal issues presented in your summary of the circumstances. It was meant to provide information only. It was not meant to provide you with legal advice or create an attorney client relationship. You should continue to research your situation and take the opportunity to meet with an attorney.

This is dispicable! These defenseless animals have no say but the human leaders do! I cannot even think about the destroying part but to tell your employes to dump them in a "safe area" speeks volumes! Typical coming out of Harrisburg, Let some other Community pay for our mismanagement, it's someone else's fault blah,blah,blah. Now these innocent animals are paying for City Government's
mistakes with their lives! Wake up city residents! You voted them in now do something about it!
This is so sad and such a vivious circle! The Borough of Steelton has not raised taxes in years and the School District continues to tax us into a position where it is impossible to attract new residents. Statistics will show that the majority of homeowners in Steelton are retired on fixed incomes with no chldren in the District. Yes, education is important and I am a Roller for life but this is so out of control. It is a shame that the tax bills of life long residents are higher than their original mortgages. The School District needs to do more with less just like many other businesses and public entities are doing. They should start with all the Assistants to the Superintendent, any uncertified teachers and any other fluff position that someone else can do. Sure it may be painful for a while but please start somewhere!!
There is no town in this great Nation that has not had problems. Mr. Luciew got it right! For those of us who have Steelton in our heart and always will, we will continue to fight to make it better for generations to come. There have been many Steeltonians that have become great athletes, leaders, businessman, and teachers. Bring it home Lady Rollers!!!!!
Dear ferretude:
No, I do not have all the facts and yes, hopefully they will all come out in the hearing. However, when looking at the two incidents side by side, it appears that the Humane Officer/Middletown Police jumped the gun too quickly and this could have been resolved in a less stressful way for everyone. Isn't it interesting that the Hampton Township police had the information about the Collie Rescue and gave the dog to Mr. Lewis. I hope I hear that Mr. Thomas was given the chance to tell the Humane Officer that he kept the dog at the rescue periodically. Heaven forbid the Humane Officer threatened Mr. Thomas with jail time and a large fine. Harrisburg - lock up your dogs.....if you don't have AC in your home your might lose them....whoops, I forgot I do not have all the facts....I do know though the HS appears to violate the human/civil rights of many for their own gain. This is a sad situation...
Amy Kaunass should do as she professes. Work with rescues. Give this dog to the Collie Rescue and let them work out something with Mr. Thomas. Apparently they were doing fine until the Humane Society stuck their nose in this.
I hope Mr. Thomas gets the 1 million the Humane Society (HS) was going to try to raise in the fall. I bet Mr. Thomas would donate most of it to someone who truly cares about animals. This isn't the first time that the Humane Society has bullied individuals with threats and such. It makes me sick. Once Mr. Thomas has his dog back, someone should thoroughly investigate this business....especially this Humane Officer.
Mr. Ostroski, thank you for taking this case. It is about time someone challenges the Humane Society (HS). Separating a dog from its life long owner and putting it into a cage with little or no exercise is more of a cruelty case than the situation in which Baron was "seized". Here is a dog who was perfectly happy, perfectly healthly and the HS puts it into the overcrowed shelter environment. This could be a win-win situation....Mr. Thomas gets reunited with his only family left and the HS gets room for another dog that was found as a stray or really abused. I understand that they have a waiting list so if they are truly the "Humane" Society, they should give Baron back to his rightful owner. My prayers are with Mr. Thomas.

#1 in II.1
Still in English Cup
The team is undefeated for 7 competitive games and has 7 wins in a row
#1 in Ladder Tyne and Wear
Managed by Aspen
3 329 members in The Stonethrowers
Stadium: Reach Gardens (capacity 76 001)
Ranked 9
7-27-2014 Time is Running Out
The last few end of season press conferences at Reach Gardens have had a similar message. "It just wasn't our season, we're disappointed, we'll improve, glory is just over the horizon." This season the message was the same, but the way it was delivered was in stark contrast. Gone was Hanley's usual anger and frustration, in it's place, an alarming lack of energy. Dejected, exhausted. Perhaps a sign that this stunning squad of players is running out time. The perennial underachievers have had horrific luck at times but there is no escaping the fact that two players have hit their 30s, with more to follow soon.Another season in which Aspen could destroy any opponent yet drop points to any opponent. A microcosm of this group of players - devastating but inconsistent. No team scored more goals in the top leagues of England, but Aspen finished with +0 goal difference.

BALTIMORE – Dan Duquette says the Orioles are not actively hunting for catchers. Matt Wieters' season ended officially last week when he underwent Tommy John surgery.
Currently, the team's catchers are Caleb Joseph and Nick Hundley.
"It's always a challenge to change catchers during the season because the catcher is involved in so many factors of the game. Fortunately, we've been able to transition from Matt as an everyday catcher to Caleb and Nick Hundley during the season and remain competitive, and recently our pitching has come around," Duquette said.
The Orioles' executive vice president of baseball operations said he doesn't underestimate how well the pair has done.
"That's a very challenging position change to make on the fly," Duquette said. "I've tried that transition a couple of other times, and it's a very difficult transition to make and maintain a winning ballclub."
Besides Joseph and Hundley, the Orioles have Steve Clevenger, who began the season with the team at Norfolk.
Duquette said that Orioles would reevaluate Dylan Bundy after Friday's start at Aberdeen. It will be Bundy's third rehab start. He went to see Bundy's start on Saturday night where the 21-year-old allowed two hits and struck out nine in five scoreless innings.
"He looked pretty good, right? He had good command of his fastball, and threw some breaking balls for strikes, used his changeup," Duquette said. "Overall he looked pretty good."
Duquette said it's possible that he'll move to Bowie after Friday's start.
NOTES: South Korean right-hander Suk-min Yoon has been placed on the minor league disabled list with a right shoulder strain. … Outfielder Francisco Peguero cleared waivers and has been outrighted to Norfolk. The Orioles' 40-man roster now stands at 38. … RHP Edgmer Escalona has refused his outright assignment to the Tides and elected free agency. … Duquette says that no decision has been made on Nolan Reimold, who is on a rehab assignment at Bowie. … LHP Randy Wolf will go to Pawtucket and take a physical on Tuesday, and if he passes he'll join Norfolk. … Bowie RHP Zach Davies was named the Eastern League Player of the Week. He pitched 13 scoreless innings.

Wegmans tells News10NBC that its new East Avenue store in Rochester is scheduled to open on May 19.
But before they can open the new store, Wegmans says it needs to close the existing store. The exact date for closing the existing store has not been determined, but Wegmans says it is planned for the last week of February. The current store will be demolished to make way for a parking lot that will include 349 customer parking spaces.
While the store is closed, the Wegmans East Avenue Pharmacy will move to 1749 East Avenue, next to the Country Club Diner.
Employees of the East Avenue store will be temporarily moved to other Wegmans locations until the new store is ready to be stocked for opening day.

We would be glad to help you with these needs. We are reasonably priced and ready to serve you.
The Industry recommendation for pumping a Septic Tank is every 3 - 5 years for average use. The chart below can help you determine your pumping frequency needs.
The frequency of pumping depends on several factors:
capacity of the septic tank
amount of solids in wastewater (e.g. garbage disposals produce more solids)
Table I lists estimated pumping frequency according to septic tank capacity and household size. The frequencies were calculated to provide a minimum of 24 hours of wastewater retention assuming 50 percent digestion of the retained solids.
TABLE 1 Estimated septic tank pumping frequencies in years
Nature's Way and More
For use in: Septic and Cesspool Systems, Grease Traps, Drains, Open Vault or Tank Toilets, On-Site Sewage Disposal Systems, Seepage Ditches, Sewage Treatment Lagoons, Dumping Stations, Recreational Vehicles and Portable Toilets.
Before Your System Fails...Ask Us For Details
A septic system is an on-site sewage treatment and disposal system buried underground. It is composed of a septic tank and a soil absorption area. The modern septic tank is a water-tight box usually made of reinforced precast concrete, concrete blocks or reinforced fiberglass, through which no natural bacteria is able to enter. This structure is where organic solids are decomposed by a natural enzymatic bacteria process. The purpose of your tank is to treat household wastes including body wastes, laundry water, bath water and discarded food. Septic systems are designed to work indefintely if they are properly installed and maintained. It is critical to have your septic tank pumped out regularly and to maintain proper levels of enzyme and bacteria action.
Waste enters the tank from toilets, sinks, tubs, and drains.
The proper amounts of enzymes and bacteria added to the tank regularly will convert these solid materials to liquid, which then flow through your underground pipes to the drainfield. In the drainfield the enzymes and bacteria continue to help reduce glazing and improve soil absorption.
Pollutants from a poorly functioning system can be drawn into your well and come out in your drinking, cooking, and bathing water. If your tank isn't cleaned regularly, sludge and scum will clog the drainfield and cause the whole system to fail. It is important to remove this solid material before it reaches the level of the discharge outlet and flows in the drainfield. There is a certain amount of material that is not biogradable and must be removed by pumping. If your system should stop or overflow, there could be offensive odors as well as dangerous health hazards.
A failing septic system isn't like your car when it is low on oil, NO RED LIGHT will go on to warn you. The U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare Public Health Service states: "A septic tank system will serve a home satisfactorily only if it is properly designed, installed, and adequately maintained. Even a good system which does not have proper care and attention may become a nuisance and a burdensome expense. Remember, a spetic tank-soil absorption system which doesn not function properly frequently becomes a neighborhood health hazard. To obtain satisfactory service, the homeowner must know something about the design, operation and maintenance of his own septic tank system."
With today's modern watertight systems, no natural enzymes or bacteria can penetrate the walls. The only way the necessary enzymes and bacteria can enter is through your toilets, sinks, tubs and drains. Enzymes and bacteria must be present to keep your tank working efficiently between periodic pumping.
STEP 1 Call ALL TREASURE VALLEY SEPTIC SERVICE, INC. regularly to pump out the sludge in your tank. How often you need pumping is determined by the size of your family, the size of your septic system, whether or not you use a garbage disposal and the care of your system has had in the past. Rely on ALL TREASURE VALLEY SEPTIC professional's expert advice and experience.
STEP 2 After pumping out your tank, add a packet of monthly. The 5 enzyme/bacteria waste digestant will help to keep the enzyme and bacteria level high in your system. Your daily use of home care products destroy enzymes and bacteria, therefore, they must be replaced.
is unique in that each ingredient is functional or contributes to the biodegradation process. Our 5 enzymes are:
PROTEASE - breaks down proteins. LIPASE - breaks down grease, oil, and fats. PECTINASE - breaks down pectins and gums. CELLULASE - breaks down papers and fibers. AMYLASE - breaks down starches.
In addition, we add five highly specialized strains of bacteria for digestion of the wastes. Once placed in your system, they will double their population approximately every twenty minutes.
Q. Why ?
A. Because of our unique blend of 5 enzymes and bacteria. Each enzyme was created to break down a specific type of solid waste found in septic tanks. The enzymes work where bacteria based products alone will not.
Q. My system backed up for the first time. What can I do to prevent this from happening again?
A. A backup is the first sign of septic system failure. We can help you reverse the clogging trend. You must start a maintenance program now or you will be replacing your system soon.
Q. Will acid help my septic system?
A. Acids and chemicals work only temporarily. They are extremely dangerous to use and harmful to the environment. Acids are being banned in many states.
Q. I keep forgetting to use an additive each month. How much should I use if I want to apply it just once a year?
A. This is not recommended. The liquids in your tank turn over 3-5 times a month. The bacteria and enzymes are constantly being flushed out into the drainfield where they continue to help reduce drainfield glazing. Adding regularly will help keep an adequate supply of enzymes and bacteria in your system.
Q. On the baking soda box, it says to add baking soda to my septic system. Will this make it work better?
A. Most enzymes and bacteria grow best in a nonacidic environment. By adding baking soda, you raise the pH to a neutral condition which makes the bacteria grow faster and digest more of the waste. This is why we have included a pH buffer in the formula. Of course baking soda does not in itself add bacteria, nor does it break down wastes as does.
Q. I've been told to put a cake of yeast in my septic system. Does this help?
A. Very little. Yeast only breaks down starches which represent a small percentage of the waste found in your septic system. You need to give you a complete breakdown of all five of the major types of waste found in your septic system.
Q. Why do I need a pumping service? I have received advertisements in the mail stating: "Save hundreds of $$ by never pumping again." "Miracle product eats everything in your septic tank."
A. These are wild and fradulent claims. After reading this page, you now know that there are two necessary procedures for maintaining a properly working septic system: 1.) Keep a high level of enzyme/bacteria action. 2.) Have regular periodic pump outs.
Q. Will adding hurt my drains and plumbing?
A. No, In fact, we recommend you add monthly to different drains in your home. The enzymes and bacteria will help reduce buildup of organic materials in your drainline in addition to helping your septic tank and drainfield.
Q. My neighbor says she pours her bacon grease down the drain. Is this harmful to the septic system?
A. Never put grease of any type in your septic system. Grease is one of the hardest organics to digest. It causes blockages in drains, the septic tank, and the drainfield. That is why 's formula is superior because it includes the enzyme "LIPASE" which breaks down grease.

How my 49 year old wife got fucked by a large cock and loved it.
For two years, I'd pestered my 49 year old wife about making love to another man while I watched. I was rejected every time as she wanted no part in doing something that she thought wasn't right. She also thought at her age no man would even want her. I had been my wife's only partner and after more than 20 years of marriage I wanted to see her so badly with another man. Our love life was...Read On

A first time gay sex with a very hot boy.
My name is Leo, and I am 16. Before I was the age I am currently, I was completely straight. But, being in an all-boys boarding school, I haven't been used to girls. I haven't had my first boob, pussy, or even my first kiss. Since I was with all boys, I had gotten over my shyness. It didn't bother me to shower or change in front of them. During my second marking period, I had gotten a...Read On

Sick and Social
This past week was school vacation week, which is always a tough time to sneak in some gaming, because the kids are home. We actually had a fantastic week at the beach, and even though it was April in Connecticut, the air was warm enough for them to don swimsuits and tromp around in the ocean for brief stints (think pint-sized polar bear club). I, on the other hand, was on the tail end of a nasty bug that I caught the week before, and I was still coughing and snorting in a futile attempt to clear my head.
So it seemed appropriate that there was a plague going on in SWTOR, and I got home in time to catch the tail end of it. I headed over to Tatooine to do some of the dailies, but was disappointed to learn that you can't do the next orange armor daily unless you completed the one the day before. Since the event is due to end on the 24th, it appears I'm screwed and won't be able to get many of the armor pieces.
I've endured in game plagues before, in EQII and in WoW, and there's something inherently fun about catching and then intentionally passing along illness and death to in-game peers. In EQII, I actually snagged the plague on a toon that I camped, with the idea that I could log it in years later and start the plague up again (It didn't work). The SWTOR plague is different though, because by catching it and passing it along, you can complete the daily quest and also get DNA when you self-destruct, and it turns out to be a very easy and relatively quick way to build up DNA. So over at the bank in the fleet on my server, there's a tightly-packed crowd standing around giving the plague to each other and summarily blowing up after it runs its course. It's pretty gross actually, because every few minutes someone will turn green, start hurling, and then explode, covering everyone in a green fog.
There are a few really neat things about this event. The first is that people somehow found each other and collectively designated the bank at the fleet to be "Plague Central." I always love in MMOs when people choose social hubs, like the EC tunnel in EQ, because it just sort of happens — there's no official declaration or vote or anything. Bioware didn't put in the patch notes anything about meeting at the bank if you want to join a plague party, so how did so many find their way there, and how did word get out?
But another thing that struck me is that we're willing to do pretty much anything for the proverbial cheese, including standing around absorbing green hurl and fog. I have only three days to get enough DNA to get that black and green lightsaber crystal that I want, so my little jedi ooched into the crowd and joined the plague party so I could play catch up with DNA farming. I'm currently tabbed out as I write this, so I'm playing SWTOR, only I'm not. I'm going to get the crystal purely because I was able to log in and leave my toon afk in the fleet for extended periods of time. If the kids' school vacation week were longer, I wouldn't be able to get the crystal. It has nothing to do with my skill, or my values, or my abilities as a player, it only has to do with my ability to log in (and stand near green puking people). Likewise, my lack of ability to log in the past week has caused me to fall short of being able to do all the armor dailies.
Lastly, how did we get to the point in MMOs where being "social" meant standing in a crowd with orange eyes and a green hue? The crowd by the bank is one of the largest gathering of players in SWTOR that I've seen since launch, and yet it's not really social at all. Don't get me wrong, I like the plague event, and I love the fact that it's taking place on Tatooine (yes, I love that zone), but there's something odd about standing around with dozens of others doing pretty much nothing. Makes me want to start inviting to form up a raid and go tackle, well, something!
In the meantime, I'll be inhaling germs and auctioning my plague-filled DNA to the highest bidder. Get it while it's green!

MMI's Ari Friedlaender has co-authored a new paper describing how humpback whale populations have rebounded to up to 90% of pre-whaling numbers in Australian waters and should no longer be officially considered a threatened species.
Jana Jeglinski (University of Glasgow) and Markus Horning (Oregon State University) both studied the diving behaviour of Galapagos fur seals (Arctocephalus galapagoensis) during PhDs conducted twenty years apart. Recently, they met in Glasgow to compare their data sets and see what this might tell us about long-term changes in the equatorial ocean environment.
A team of scientists from the United States and Russia has documented the longest migration of a mammal ever recorded – a round-trip trek of nearly 14,000 miles by a whale identified as a critically endangered species that raises questions about its status. The researchers used satellite-monitored tags to track three western North Pacific gray whales from their primary feeding ground off Russia's Sakhalin Island across the Pacific Ocean and down the West Coast of the United States to Baja, Mexico. One of the tagged whales, dubbed Varvara, visited the three major breeding areas for eastern gray whales, which are found off North America and are not endangered. Results of their study are being published this week by the Royal Society in the journal Biology Letters.
