Great pack, check sizing options.
- Familiarity: I returned this product before using it
This pack is simply amazing. It has many adjustable features allowing you to tailor the fit perfectly. However, do be aware of the hip belt sizing options. I ordered the short/regular pack and received a small sized hip belt. Backcountry.com is unable to exchange the belt and will require you to deal with artery'x directly.

Best pack ever!!??
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I'm 5'6 150 and ordered a small reg. The fit was spot on. The rotating hip belt is what makes this pack great and the padding wasn't overly hard but very comfortable. I walk with my hips. When you walk with this pack the hip belt moves with your hips and the pack stays put to your back. No swaying back and forth. I didn't feel like I was going to tip over while doing some light scrambling or when going up steep inclines. Several reviews people have complained about squeaking from the shoulder harness to the hip belt. I added a decent amount of synthetic grease and no more squeaking. Even when there was a slight noise coming from the pack it still doesn't change how comfortable the pack is. There is tons of space and the wing pockets make it easy to fit my Nalgene bottle as well as other decent size items. My platypus big zip 3L fit in the main water compartment. The Altra 65 price is really steep compared to other brands but I love Arcteryx and def recommend this pack. Don't let the price fool you, it's worth it????

Hey Christopher! Welcome to the Backcountry Community!
Your site lists the Diablo Red in Short and Short/Regular. What's the difference? Does the Short come with a small hipbelt? Thanks!

Best corporate pack
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
What a great backpack. The price is a bit much, but once you get your hands on the bag and especially when you load it up I can see the difference. I got this pack to carry my stuff more comfortably and to also haul a few things for others as well. The ergonomics of the pack are amazing. Just lifting the pack from the handle (never the harness!) is ergonomically better than I've seen. It goes on without the shoulder straps all twisted and jumbled. Also, all the straps are handy to reach and the pack is very adjustable. I really think the lid is amazing. So simple yet such an improvement. The workmanship, materials and layout of this pack are just wonderful. I cannot access the zippered wingman pockets with the pack on, but that doesn't matter to me for I use a hydration bladder. The pockets are great though. The hydration pocket is large enough to accommodate my 3 liter bladder and a flat style 750ml bottle of whatever. I really love that I can have this pack quite overloaded, but I don't look like the the Beverly Hillbillies. Everything gets into the pack and is concealed. The compression straps are EXTREMELY effective as well. Some designs improvements for me would be: ditch the zipper as I have only used it to see if it is practical and it's not for me, the draw cord on the "snow collar" isn't sewn in at the top so when I'm overloaded I have to manually move the draw cord up to the top of the collar before cinching it down. That's about it really. I am sending the pack back because over 65lbs and it starts getting pretty uncomfortable. It's a bit surprising to me for I have no problem getting that kind of wt into the 65 yet the suspension is the same for the 65-85. So, I must go with another pack (Kifaru) that is meant to carry heavy loads better. Even the rep at Kifaru almost had me sold on the Altra. If I could only get my weight down it would be great! If you stay under 55 lbs the pack is wonderful. Over that and you may want to look elsewhere. Great pack!
I must agree it seems they are making packs not for over 60 pounds. Arc'teryx & Osprey among others.
What kind of grease are you supposed to use for the load transfer disc? Mine didn't come with any grease.
David Thiel
Here's what Arc' says:
Special AC2 lubricant may be obtained from most Arc'teryx retailers. If AC2 lubricant is not available, contact our Warranty Department
Alternately, you can use plumber's silicone grease as a back-up, available at most hardware stores or scuba dive shops.
Do not use oil based lubricants such as WD40, as it will cause the Discs to seize and degrade the urethane components."
... and I hope that helps!
I would just call them and they will send you a little tube of lube!
Stephen Sramek
Davis is spot on.
Here's a link to the "Contact Us" form:
You can contact them and ask for a free sample of the lube.
Anyone know if just white lithium grease would work?
Or would this be an issue with the plastic?
Never tried it, but I would probably opt for silicone grease over white lithium grease which is intended for metal/metal joints and could potentially dissolve plastics depending on the solvents used.

RCC must also be sufficiently stiff to support haul-
ing, spreading, and compaction equipment; and
must contain adequate paste at the appropriate con-
sistency to become distributed throughout the con-
crete mass during mixing, placing and compaction.
RCC must contain sufficient mortar to prevent
segregation and fill large voids between coarse
aggregate particles. The paste is the binder that ties
the coarse and fine aggregates together. In a plastic
state, the paste provides cohesion and workability to
the RCC. In a hardened state, the paste content and
quality will dictate the concrete strength, bonding
potential, permeability, and durability. The paste
volume is proportioned to fill the void system of the
fine aggregate. Typically, fine aggregate has a void
content ranging from approximately 35 to 40 per-
cent. The minimum paste-to-mortar volume ratio
(Vp/Vm) specified in EM 1110-2-2006 ensures that
voids in the mortar fraction are completely filled.
Guidance for typical RCC mortar contents are also
given in EM 1110-2-2006 (Reference 12c).

Conversations with Walker Percy
University Press of Mississippi, 1985 - Literary Criticism - 325 pages
These collected interviews, like a visit with Percy at his home on the Bogue Falaya River, provide refreshing close-up encounters with one of America's most celebrated writers.
These twenty-seven interviews cover a period of twenty-two years, from the time of the publication of Percy's first novel, The Moviegoer, in 1961, until 1983, when he was interviewed about his friendship with Thomas Merton.
This volume is the second in the Literary Conversations series. These unabridged interviews, collected from a variety of sources, will give reading pleasure to general readers who wish to know Percy and his works more closely, and they will be of great use to Percy scholars.

Price tag increases for perceived 'break' on speeding tickets
Motorists pulled over by police for speeding at times are given what's been perceived as a break - a ticket for a lesser violation, a lesser fine and no points on their driving record.
The price tag on that courtesy increased Jan. 1 when part of the transportation legislation put into law.
The combined cost for "failure to obey traffic control devices," a summary offense, is now $170, according to Erin Waters-Trasatt, PennDOT deputy press secretary.
That's a $58 increase over the $112 penalty that had been assessed, except in Philadelphia and Pittsburgh where the penalty had been $122.
It had originally been raised to $150 under Act 89 of 2013. A subsequent amendment allowed an additional $20 in surcharges, according to Waters-Trasatt.
Trooper Matthew Burrows, public information officer for Troop F, which includes Northumberland County, said the lesser violation had long been extended by police officers as a courtesy to motorists.
"Most people appeared thankful for that because of the point system," Burrows said. "I'm not sure what the fallout of that really is, really because that's fairly new."
The cost was increased as part of a larger effort to raise $2.3 billion over five years for transportation funding, which includes the $558 million Central Susquehanna Valley Thruway project.
In all, funding will be spent on both state and local roads and bridges, public transit, low-volume rural roads, some turnpike projects and rail lines, airports and shipping ports. The revenue will not only come from an increase in motorist fines and fees but also through a gradual easement of the cap on a state wholesale tax on gasoline over five years.
At $137.50, the least severe speeding violation under the "maximum speed limits" vehicle code is now less expensive than the punishment for "failure to obey traffic control devices." The cost of a speeding ticket can rise, however, depending on the severity of the offense - $2 per mile for each mile in excess of five miles per hour over the maximum limit.
The true cost to a motorist pulled over for speeding could be in the accumulation of points. Whereas "failure to obey traffic control devices" carries no point violation, speeding can bring from two to five points.
If six points are accumulated for the first time, the motorist is subject to a special examination. Suspensions of 15 days and 30 days can follow if a motorist reaches six points for a second or third time.
Any motorist who accumulates 11 points or more are subject to mandatory suspension of a driver's license up to one year.

Jimmy was tall and strong. He looked like a paperback edition of a Twentieth-Century Magog, and at a distance he seemed to show breed from head to foot. He radiated it. Girls just out of boarding school who saw him swing down the main street of the little Northwestern town where he had been born and bred spoke of his fascinating virility. But when he came nearer, and chiefly when he raised his olive-green velvet hat with the twisted, many-colored pugaree band, you changed your first impression. For he pompadoured his hair in the manner of the statuesque child-men in the streetcar ads, who picture the latest extravaganzas in five-ply, guaranteed-linen, long-point collars; he was suspected of using a Rachel shade of face powder; and it took him years of hardy effort to graduate from peg-tops and padded shoulders to chaste, Manhattan-cut trousers and coat. His character was half drizzle and half sleet; his was the gift of mean and useless things charmingly done, the sort of mind which tries to fill an empty well with dew drops and to attach handles to an egg. But he could split a pair of aces and draw to a flush, and never change a muscle.

Warren water, sewer projects gets final approval
WARRENTON — Warren County Board of Commissioners gave final approval to a water and sewer project that has stretched over eight years, cost almost $1.8 million and extended service to households in the far reaches of the county.
Public Utilities Director Macon Robertson on Monday thanked the commissioners for their support.
"Completing the project was a great accomplishment," he said.
Commissioners approved a certificate of substantial completion for the third phase of water and sewer District 3 as of Dec. 20.
The project included construction of about 30 miles of water lines and filled gaps in service around Lake Gaston and several communities in the county.
In other business, commissioners adopted a nearly $583,000 ordinance to extend water and sewer lines to Eaton's Ferry Bridge. The funds will be advanced from the General Fund and reimbursed from bond or grant proceeds.
Tax Collector Starlin Beatty reported unpaid 2013 taxes totaled nearly $1.8 million. The board ordered him to advertise tax liens on the delinquent properties.
Commissioners approved a request by the Warren County High School Air Force Junior ROTC to waive the rental fee for the use of the Armory Civic Center on March 8. The unit will hold its annual cadet ball on that date.
The commissioners declared several tables, desks and an antique electric organ as surplus and authorized their sale by auction or conveyance to a local non-profit organization of items that fail to sell. The board also authorized the county manager to convey surplus property consisting of tables, desk and low-back chairs to the Warren County Training School Alumni and Friends Association for $1.
Commissioners adopted a resolution authorizing sale of tax foreclosed Harris Turner Funeral Home property on West Franklin Street in Warrenton by the upset bid process, with proceeds from the sale used to pay taxes and legal fees.
County Clerk Angelena Kearney-Dunlap reported six items of real estate and two surplus vehicles were sold at auction for nearly $15,000.
The board adopted a resolution declaring February 2014 as Black History Month.
The board went into closed session to discuss privileged information. When the board returned to open session, commissioners directed County Attorney Karlene Turrentine to issue a letter to the Board of Elections advising them a preliminary hearing canceled and rescheduled as an emergency meeting did not meet the statutory requirement of an emergency and was therefore void. A preliminary hearing had been called to hear a complaint that questioned the legal residence of two voters.

Illuminating Objects: Spanish lustre dish
3D model
The 3D model loads in layers and may take a few seconds to complete, so please be patient. If the model does not load at all for you, please try using Firefox.
Model created by John Hindmarch and Ali Hosseininaveh Ahmadabadian. It would help John's research if you could spare five minutes to complete a short survey.
- Hold the left mouse button to rotate and spin the bowl.
- Use the left mouse button and [ctrl] to zoom in and out -
- though we recommend not zooming in too far!
- Double click the image at any time to reset the display.
John Hindmarch on making the 3D model
First of all, I'd like to thank the Courtauld for giving me the opportunity to create this model of one of their beautiful objects. Secondly, I should point out that this model is a work-in-progress; what you see here is a first attempt, and we hope to improve the quality of the model over the coming weeks, using different and more sophisticated techniques - some developed specifically for this object.
While we did use a laser scanner to capture the bowl's detailed shape, this particular model was created using photogrammetry - the process of constructing a 3D model from a series of 2D images. Using about 60 photographs, our software first calculates the camera's position in relation to the object,then identifies 'features' in the images. Once it has found the same point in two or more photos, it can calculate that point's position in three dimensional space. By building up 'patches' of points, the programme creates a full 3D 'point cloud' model of the entire object.
'Lustre' is "the state or quality of shining by reflecting light", and as you can see from photos, this piece of lustreware is highly reflective - a real problem for both photogrammetry and laser scanning. All those 'specular highlights' depend on how you look at the object – ie, they move as you move - which means that different highlights appear in different places in different photos. This confuses the photogrammetry algorithms: they have no way of knowing that the bright spot in the image is 'just a reflection' and not a real feature of the object. You end up with a model with lots of 'noise' and either corrupted data or big holes where the reflections were strongest. Hopefully our next iteration will fix some of these problems...
Why does it look pink?
The pink highlights in the model above are an approximation. The bowl itself does have amazing pink reflections, due to the presence of copper in the lustre (metals, unlike non-conducting materials, have coloured highlights). In reality, the pink highlights only appear on the darker areas of the bowl, we aim to simulate that in future iterations of the model.
Try it yourself...
Behind the scenes, photogrammetry is exceptionally complex, but the idea is simple, and you can try it out for yourself at sites like 123D Catch.

The Flowmaster Sound is the true tone of American muscle and performance. Available in a wide range of domestic and import applications for automobiles and trucks. Flowmaster mufflers produce more power than OEM and competitive aftermarket products.
This Force II exhaust system is not as loud as the American Thunder Exhaust System with less interior resonance. The Force II exhaust system has been designed with the latest exhaust technology available. Through this technology, you will experience improvements in acceleration, passing power, and fuel mileage. The key to these performance improvements is through the use of mandrel-bent tubing that allows for superior exhaust gas flow. Aluminized steel tubing has been used for its corrosion resistant quality so your system will last. The Force II system comes with a three chamber muffler(s) that will give you plenty of Flowmaster sound under hard acceleration but low sound levels while cruising. Kits include all hangers, clamps, and mounting hardware for an easy installation.
* Shipping Notes: Please note FREE Shipping refers to shipping within the contiguous contential US. All other locations extra. If your order will be delayed you will be notified via email the estimated shipping date.

Flowmaster 2011-12 Mustang 3.7L V6 Force II Axle-Back Exhaust
I watched countless YouTube vids of axle backs for my car. Let me say they're essentially useless! Based on the videos I had my heart set on a ford racing or borla touring exhaust. They seemed to have the deep sound I was looking for without being obnoxiously loud. I was avoiding the flowmaster setup based on a few videos that made it sound too high-end and not rumbly. I was set to spend 700 on the borlas but stumbled on a vid of the flowmasters that sounded good. So I decided to risk it to save some dough. I'm not disappointed. I put them on in under an hour. The fit is stellar. So easy to line up in the valence, looks great! If you're looking for a crazy loud system this is NOT for you. It's not much louder than stock, but has a much beefier sound. There's no drone in the cabin unless you really are looking for it. At cruising speeds with the radio on you can't hear the exhaust. Dip your toes into the gas tank and it roars pretty good, but again nothing obnoxious. I think it's perfect for a daily driver.

Nintendo changes stance on Wii's sunlight behaviour
updated 03:45 pm EDT, Thu October 12, 2006
Wii does react to sun?
Reversing what they said to 1UP, Nintendo tells Kikizo that direct sunlight can indeed confuse the sensor bar needed to track the Wiimote. A representative likens the problem to being unable to watch your TV in full glare. Of course, the trouble here is that the sensor bar represents a much smaller target than a TV. Some gamers may be forced to reposition displays to use the console. Worse, it doesn't seem like Nintendo could easily improve a sensor with such unique functions.

Rock 'n Roll hall of famer Gregg Allman is bringing his distinctive Southern rock and blues sound to the Emerald Coast this Memorial week holiday.
Allman, a founding member of the Allman Brothers Band and a storied solo performer, will headline at The Green @ Gulf Place on Wednesday May 28 and lucky South Walton residents will be first in line for tickets, according to a press release from 98 Republic.
"We are offering tickets here in South Walton first," said Jon Brooks, venue director. "We want locals to have the chance to score tickets for what will undoubtedly be a sell-out event."
Georgia-based Allman is listed by Rolling Stone magazine as one of the "100 greatest singers of all time" and has had seven solo chart-topping albums over a 40-plus year career, including his 2011 Grammy nominated album "Low Country Blues." Despite a lifetime of touring, this will be Allman's first time performing on the shores of South Walton.
Originally talks about the Beach Boys performing over the Memorial Day holiday were floated around the community, but the concert never came to fruition.
"We are excited and privileged to have Gregg Allman join us at The Green @ Gulf Place for this Memorial Week Concert," said Brooks. "Gregg has one of the most distinctive voices and musical styles in the world — complete with a remarkable lifetime catalogue of original songs."
The Green @ Gulf Place has quickly become a favorite venue for music lovers on the Florida Coast, the release says, hosting weekend concerts during the summer, as well as being the original home of the Seabreeze Jazz Festival.
"It will be a special night in South Walton for music fans of all ages to listen to a true legend perform here in our own community," said

BOSTON — The University of New Hampshire women's swimming and diving team finished day three of the 2012 America East Swimming and Diving Championships in third place with 425.5 points.
Katie Mann (Prince George, B.C.) paved the way for UNH, setting a school and conference record with her first-place finish in the 400 IM, timing in at four minutes and 14.10 seconds. The recording breaking swim not only qualifies as an NCAA provisional cut but ranks 42nd in the country.
New Hampshire also took the top spot in the 100-yard butterfly with Grace Borchers (Evanston, Ill.) finishing the event in 55.82.
The Wildcats had a strong showing in the 200-yard freestyle, as Sydney Tribou (Orlando, Fla.) and Shelli Reed (Hollister, Calif.) nabbed second (1:49.98) and fifth place (1:50.70), respectively.
Jessica Little (Barrie, Ontario) and Oneida Cooper (Johannesburg, South Africa) chipped in with a third-place finishes in respective events. Little finished the 100-yard breaststroke in 1:04.33 while Cooper clocked in at 56.86 in the 100-yard backstroke.
The 'Cats were also impressive in the 400-yard medley relay with Lauren McCandless (Macungie, Pa.), Cooper, Mann and Tribou teaming up to take second in the event, clocking in at 3:46.22.
New Hampshire returns to action for the final day of the America East Swimming and Diving Championships on Sunday, Feb. 26, beginning with preliminaries (10 a.m.) at Boston University's Aquatic Center.

Week 9 Stock Report
Week 9 Stock Report
Each week I will highlight players and teams who have seen their value rise or fall during the previous week. I will also try to highlight players that have favorable schedules coming up that could give them a boost in value. Remember that you always want to sell high and buy low!
Stock Up
Marvin Jones: He may want to change his name to Touchdown Jones after last week's performance. Jones has scored in three straight games, included his 4 touchdown explosion against the Jets. The amazing thing about last week is that he scored those touchdowns while only playing 19 snaps. Jones doesn't get enough time on the field to be a WR2 for fantasy teams. He has seen an increase in catches and targets for the past three weeks, and should be owned in all leagues. I view him as a strong flex play or WR3 for the remainder of the season.
Terrance Williams: He had scored in four straight games for the Cowboys. He is clearly the #2 wide receiver on this team, even when Miles Austin comes back from injury. He has only been under 60 yards receiving once in the past five weeks. With Dez Bryant and Jason Witten getting most of the attention , Williams has consistently beat single coverage. He actually has more value in a standard league than a PPR league. Williams has been great scoring touchdowns, but he isn't a huge receptions guy. He has been held under 5 receptions in three of the last five games. His reliance on touchdowns to get most of his points limits his value. It is tough to trust a player who doesn't get a ton of receptions to be an every week starter. Williams is the #2 receiver on a high scoring offense and gets a lot of looks in the red zone. Look to use him as a WR3 and a strong flex option.
Mike Tolbert: His value comes from the fact that he gets most of his work inside the red zone. Tolbert doesn't get a lot of carries, in fact, he only has one double-digit carry game this year. He also doesn't get a ton of yards, but he has gained over 30 yards rushing in three of his last four games. He isn't much of a threat as a receiver, with only one game of over 3 receptions. Despite all this, he is a touchdown machine. He has scored five times so far this year and is a threat to score every week because he gets a ton of touches near the end zone. He has value as a RB4 and should only be used as a low-end flex option.
Andre Ellington: The Cardinals clearly view Ellington as their third down/change of pace running back. Even with Rashard Mendenhall out with an injury, they still limited Ellington's snap count by playing Stepfan Taylor against the Falcons. I think Ellington will start to see more playing time, but will still be limited because the Cardinals don't view him as an every down back. He has been solid for PPR leagues, averaging around 4 catches per game. He is a threat to break a long run every time he gets the ball, as evident by his 80 yard touchdown run last week. I view Ellington as a strong flex option, and a viable option for a RB2 spot if you are dealing with an injury or bye week situation.
Pierre Thomas: It is hard to trust any running back on the Saints due to the fact that they have a pass-heavy offense. Thomas has emerged as their lead running back with three straight games of double-digit carries. He is averaging almost 5 receptions per game, which makes him more valuable in PPR leagues. He has averaged around 70 total yards per game, but has only scored two total touchdowns. His value is also limited because he doesn't get a lot of looks in the red zone and he is taken out on third down. He has value as RB3 or RB4, but should only be used as bye week or injury fill-in player. He is not the most exciting player to have on your bench, but at least you know what to expect if you are forced to use him in your starting lineup.
Kris Durham: I know it seemed like Calvin Johnson was the only receiver on the Lions to catch a pass against the Cowboys, but Durham had a few catches that game as well. He has been averaging around 8 targets a game for the past four weeks. Durham played with Matthew Stafford in college, so there is a comfort level between the two. He hasn't put up huge yardage stats so far, but he has been pretty consistent with getting around 50 yards per game. He should be owned in all leagues of 12 or more teams, but shouldn't be relied upon as anything more than a WR4.
C.J. Anderson: He only had 4 carries for 22 yards against the Redskins, but he has a chance to earn the #2 running back spot for the Broncos. If he doesn't have a fumbling problem like Hillman and Ball, and can do a decent job of picking up blitzes, he could wind up getting some quality time on the field with the Broncos high-powered offense. Anderson is worth stashing on teams in leagues of 12 or more if you have an extra roster spot. He could be the next surprise running back star for the Broncos. Watching him play brought back memories of Mike Anderson and Olandis Gary.
Stock Down
Tom Brady: The Patriots keep winning, but Brady is playing more like he was earlier in his career when he was an average fantasy quarterback. So far this season, Brady has only one game throwing for more than 300 yards. In his past four games, he only has two touchdown passes with four interceptions. His production is being hurt by lack of quality receivers and his lack of accuracy. Brady is only completing 55% of his passes this year. The Patriots just lost their starting right tackle for the year and Brady has been getting sacked more than he has in previous seasons. Brady is no longer an every week starter for fantasy teams. He should only be used when he has a favorable matchup.
Adrian Peterson: The only reason Peterson is listed in the stock down section is because of the current situation he is in with the Vikings, not because of his ability on the field. His production has decreased because of a lack of opportunity. The Vikings have a tough time sustaining drives and stopping the opposing team. The quarterback position for the Vikings is one of the worst in the league. I am always surprised when they actually complete a pass during a game. This lack of quality quarterback play has limited the number of plays the Vikings run on offense. Teams are stacking the line even more to stop Peterson than they have in the past. The defense for the Vikings is also hurt Peterson's value. They can't get off the field on third down and opposing teams are winning the time of possession battle each week. I don't see the Vikings quarterback situation getting any better this year. Peterson is still a #1 running back, but you may need to adjust your expectations. He always has the chance to break off a long touchdown run, but he may be a more boom or bust guy the rest of the season.

Mushroom warning for children
10 April 2014
With wild mushrooms predicted to start growing in large numbers over the coming weeks, SA Health is reminding parents about the dangers of children eating unidentified fungi.
Professor Paddy Phillips, Chief Medical Officer, SA Health, said there were 105 calls to the Poisons Information Centre (PIC) during 2013 from worried parents after their children had eaten or come into contact with wild mushrooms.
"Mushrooms bought from a supermarket or store are a safe and nutritious part of a healthy diet," Professor Phillips said.
"However there are a number of species of mushroom that, while they may look edible, can contain a range of toxins and are poisonous to eat.
"Usually around this time of year we begin to see more and more mushrooms growing in backyards and playgrounds across South Australia, particularly in the Adelaide Hills.
"Young children may be tempted to eat mushrooms and plants they find in the backyard so it's a good idea for parents to discourage this behaviour, just in case.
"There is no reliable way to determine if a mushroom is edible unless you are an expert – so if you are unsure, don't eat it.
"Already this year we have had 14 calls to the PIC from parents asking for advice after their children have swallowed mushrooms and this number is expected to increase over the coming months.
"Eating a poisonous mushroom can cause severe abdominal pains, nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea. Some species can also cause liver damage and kidney failure.
"If you suspect your child has eaten a wild mushroom, do not wait for symptoms to occur, contact the Poisons Information Centre on 13 11 26 and they will advise if it is necessary to see medical attention.
"If symptoms have developed go to your nearest emergency department or medical clinic immediately.
"You should also try to take one of the mushrooms with you if possible, to help experts identify what species it is to determine the most appropriate treatment.
"If you have wild mushrooms that you can't identify growing in your garden and are concerned about your children eating them, the best idea is to pick them, bin them and then wash your hands."
Since 2008/09 47 people have been admitted to SA public hospitals for mushroom poisoning, with 30 per cent of these cases occurring in children.

BOSTON – Freshman goalkeeper Erica Correa (Cheshire, Conn.) made a career-high 12 saves, but the University of New Hampshire women's soccer team dropped a 2-0 decision to Boston University at Nickerson Field on Sunday afternoon in the team's America East opener.
The Wildcats fall to 4-5-2 on the season, including 0-1-0 in America East play, while the Terriers improve to 6-5-0 overall and 1-0-0 in the conference.
The Terriers struck 19:22 into the match when Emma Clark's long pass set up a breakaway for Lisa Kevorkian, who made good on her chance and beat Correa for her league-leading seventh goal of the season to give her team the 1-0 lead.
The game stayed that way until late in the 50th minute when Bedford, N.H., native Jessica Luscinski scored from 22 yards out off a restart to make it 2-0.
BU goalkeepers Kelly King and Alice Binns each played a half in net, with Binn making the only stop of the afternoon.
The Terriers outshot UNH, 30-4, including 15-1 in the second, which kept Correa, UNH's America East Player of the Game, busy in net. BU also held a 9-2 advantage in corner kicks.
The Wildcats return to action Wednesday, Sept. 29 at 4:30 p.m. when they wrap up non-conference play with a trip to Brown University. The next home game for the 'Cats is Sunday, Oct. 3 at 12 p.m. when they play host to the University of Maryland, Baltimore County at Lewis Fields.

High-Tech Equipment Gives Our Soldiers The Edge
U.S. Army Soldiers carry some of the most advanced equipment on the planet, and just using the state-of-the-art gear is a specialty on its own. He is a sampling of what you can expect to use in the field:
GPS Locator
Human beings have used the stars to navigate for thousands of years. These days, we still use space through satellite technology, which has paved the way for an era of mind-boggling precision. The Army's Global Positioning System Locator bounces signals off of Earth-orbiting satellites through a process called "trilateration", narrowing an object's – or human's – coordinates down to just a few meters.
Ghillie Suit
Ghillie suits are special three-dimensional camouflage outfits generally worn by marksmen. The suits, which are covered with synthetic vegetation that reacts to wind and rain just like real plants, are designed to simulate the environment and provide a maximum level of concealment for the person wearing it.
Long-Range Communications
Soldiers use the latest technology to communicate through radio or text messages via satellite or computer. Satellite systems, configured as either large, land-mounted terminals or transportable systems, are critical to the success of these communications.
M24 Sniper Weapons System
The Army's M24 Sniper Weapons System (SWS) is one of the most accurate sniping systems in use today. It has a strong, lightweight stock made of Kevlar, graphite and fiberglass, a two-foot long barrel and a detachable bipod for pinpoint accuracy.
Night Vision
Night vision allows Soldiers to see during night operations or in low-light environments. Night vision equipment amplifies visible and non-visible light so that the human eye can see it.

Magbit Canada Awards Scholarships to 278 Israeli Students
Students in Israel's Far North and Far South Benefit
A total of 205 scholarships were awarded to students studying at the Ben Gurion University campus in Eilat. Funded by UJA Federation of Greater Toronto, with generous support from the Morris Pulver Foundation, the scholarships were handed out at a ceremony held recently on the Eilat campus. The awards were presented by Meir Yitzhak Halevi, the mayor of Eilat; Prof. Miri Amit, dean of the campus; and Bruce Leboff, co-chair of UJA Federation of Greater Toronto's annual campaign. The speakers described their confidence in the future growth of the campus and wished the recipients success in their studies.
The Jewish community of Toronto has supported the student scholarship program in Eilat since the founding of the campus nine years ago. Annually, UJA has committed to sums in excess of $200,000 to ensure that the vision of making Eilat a university city may be realized.
"Toronto's scholarship program has become a cornerstone in Eilat's academic development. In return for the financial support, recipients contribute a total of 1,300 hours every week working with youth-at-risk," says Richard Summers, UJA Federation's representative in Eilat. "In this way, the program's impact is twofold, benefitting both the students and the teens with whom they work. In addition, more than half of scholarship recipients stay in the Eilat region for at least two years after graduation."
On May 17, a similar ceremony was held at Tel Hai Academic College in the Upper Galilee, at which a total of 73 scholarships were awarded. The ceremony took place in the presence of the Dr. Ze'evik Greenberg, the Dean of Students, Marc Gold, president of Magbit Canada, both of whom addressed the recipients, and Linda Kislowicz the Chief Executive Officer of Jewish Federations Canada –UIA . The scholarships were funded by six Canadian donors -- the Zalkow family of Vancouver; Sam Rothstein; Bob and Helen Coleman of Vancouver; Martin Payne of Fredericton, New Brunswick; Larry and Marlene Cohen of Niagara Falls, Ontario; and Bernard and Edith Ennis of Welland, Ontario.
Magbit Canada enjoys a long-standing and multi-faceted relationship with Tel Hai College. Its scholarship program is one of its most significant philanthropic tools on behalf of young people in the Galilee, and in Israel in general.

We walked by seeing a large number of customers and decided to give it a try. The hostess asked"have you heard of our brunch" and said it was $18.95. We decided to give it a try since they were so many people seeming to enjoy the food. Once we sat down they offered us mimosa's and juice. But they were not juice - Tang, Sunny D, something like that .... in a mimosa.... (The kids refused to drink the 'juice') Then we learned it was a buffet! And the buffet was the only option. Burned french toast, undercooked pancakes and the other lunch options generally were not very appetizing. There was an omelet station with 4 cheeses ,3 veg & 1 meat options that was ok. Some fruit available as a last option. Overall we agreed it was some of the worst tasting brunch (& most expensive) we've ever had.

I've eaten at Mamajuana several times (I live nearby) and it can be a really nice experience. On the other hand, there are times when the food really isn't up to par. My wife and I both love good churassco steaks and Mamajuana dishes out some of the best at times. At other times, it's oversalted and far too spicey to enjoy. Last time (a few days ago) the french fries were very greasy, so you really don't know what you're going to be getting on a given day. My personal favorite is "Porquito". This is a slab of gently roasted pork that can feed two people. It's juicy and tender and, more often than not, I take a good portion home for dinner the next day. The Sangria is excellent and the wine list is extensive and reasonbly priced. What I find to be the major stumbling block for this otherwise decent restaurant is the noisy clientele. I'm sorry, but there are times and places to be noisy and a restaurant is not one of them. As a neighbor, I'd really like to see management control its patrons a bit more as they tend to stumble out at 4AM waking half the neighborhood. They have recently pasted a few signs outside asking for some consideration, but I doubt that, given the clientele, it's going to matter very much. An expansion of its outdoor dining area is pending approval. I just question why anyone would want to sit outdoors when the view consists of a Getty gas station with its noxious fumes filling the air. Frankly, I'm not sure why we continue to return, but it's convenient, if little else. We generally have an early dinner there and get out before the "regulars" start raising a racket.

Food was COLD!!! Would not go back to this restaurant!

I went to this place last Thursday and it was excellent. The ambiance was very romantic and cozy. The food was great and the sangria was absolutely amazing. There was a Brazillian band playing all night. It was a great first date. We ended up staying well after dinner. I would definitely go back and recommend this place to my friends.

We tried the appetizer sampler and it was huge, appetizers can be split between two people. This restaurant gives really generous portions and the food was amazing. I ordered a caldo gallego and it was very a hearty, large soup. It could even be a meal for some. We sat outside and the ambiance was very relaxed and beautiful. One person even said they felt like they were in Europe. My friend ordered the chicken pizza and it was really good, even the next day when we ate the leftovers. Brazilian jazz is on Wednesday night now. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone. It is also very lively and nice to go to the bar at night and have some drinks/appetizers. Mamajuana is quickly becoming my favorite place.

I went to this place once, the flamenco dancing was interesting to me so I went in and ate the most wonderful paella ever! Before I got the plate I thought that it was a little pricy but when I got a pot full of rice with tons of seafood and meat I was pleasantly suprised and turns out it's completely worth the price. I highly recommend this place! Yum!
Posted by Anny on 07/19/2007
A must when visiting NYC. I was amazed by the food and restaurant itself. Go mamajuana!

For the last ten years, I have served as both the President of the Governing Board and the Executive Director of the Matthew Shepard Foundation. Over the course of that time, the Foundation has grown enormously and changed from a small 3 person operation to an organization with national reach.
Today I am very happy to announce that Jason Marsden will be joining the Matthew Shepard Foundation as Executive Director July 1, 2009. He will be bringing a wealth of knowledge and experience in the non-profit world as well as the Gay, Lesbian, Bi-Sexual and Transgender communities. He has served as executive director for the last seven years of Wyoming nonprofit conservation advocacy organizations. He has also served as a statewide field director for the Wyoming's Democratic Party's coordinated campaign during a key U.S. Senate race and as a former political and environmental specialist for Wyoming's statewide newspaper.
Jason is a leader and a public face for Wyoming's gay and lesbian community. He has lobbied the Wyoming Legislature in 2007 and 2009, in opposition to a ban which would continue refusing to recognize out-of state gay marriages. He also served for nearly five years on the board of Wyoming's 32-member progressive umbrella organization, in which conservation groups join with labor unions, civil rights advocates, educators, public employees, the progressive clergy, the trial-lawyer community, and the statewide LGBT organization, to further establish policy targets and educate candidates and lawmakers.
As you can see, he will be a great asset to our organization.
I will continue to serve as the President of the Governing Board and work closely with Jason, our Board and our staff as we continue our journey to Replace Hate with Understanding, Compassion, and Acceptance.
Please join me in welcoming Jason and as always, thank you for your tremendous support.
With warmest respect,
Judy Shepard

Kindle 2: Linux eBook from Amazon
Kindle eBooks have been around since the '90's, and although sales are still uncertain, Amazon has now upped the ante by not only releasing version 2, but also publishing parts of the Linux source code.
Linuxdevices.com has taken a closer look at the device. First of all, it looks good and is thinner than Kindle 1.While the display hasn't changed that much, the device now has 16 gray shades which help greatly with contrast adjustment. Pages turn 20% faster and thanks to the new user interface, turning the page, making notes and skipping pages has become a lot easier.
The SoC (System on Chip) is a Freescale I.MX31 processor, based on ARM11 architecture with a 532 MHz tact. Kindle 2 has 32 MByte RAM and 2 GByte memory with 1.4 available to the user. Large enough for 1.500 books, says Amazon. The original SD slot of its predecessor has been replaced by a mini USB 2.0 port and a 3.5 mm audio line-out has been added. Improved battery performance should keep the device running for four to five days.
Presently aimed exclusively at the US market, Kindle 2 will cost 360 USD, with downloads available via the 3G wireless Whispernet.
Source Code:
The source code for Kindle 2 can be downloaded here. The 138 MByte TAR.GZ archive contains a U-Boot 2.6.22 Linux kernel, Alsa, Busybox, Powertop, Gstreamer, Bootchart and other popular open-source programs. Developers are calling attention to the short boot-time and energy saving functions of the device. More information on Kindle 2 can be found here.

Part Two: Does Jesus Contradict Himself in "Jesus Calling"?
The second step in discerning whether or not the Jesus you're hearing about is the same Jesus of the Bible is this:
Compare what you read that the "Jesus" in a particular book may say with what Jesus actually said in the Bible.
We would expect that the Jesus of the Mormons or the Jehovah's Witnesses contradicts what the Jesus of the Bible says. It is blatant and in your face, it easier to deal with the deception, because it is so obvious. Unfortunately, there is a much more sinister and nasty violation of Jesus' deity going on. The reason? The lies have been packaged in Christian terminology and for this reason, Christians are not noticing. We tend to take things at face value. For instance, if I buy a particular book at the Christian bookstore, I assume it's good. There's not any bad doctrine in it, is there? I mean, the bookstore wouldn't carry a book like that, would they?
As much as it's terrible to admit, bookstores are businesses. And if a book is a bestseller, they'll probably carry it if it is written by a "Christian." It will make them a lot of money. This is where we need to rely on the Holy Spirit for wisdom and discernment.
If you have been to a Christian bookstore at all in the past few years, then you are probably familiar with Jesus Calling. This book sounds so good. Who doesn't want to read a book that is written in the voice of Jesus? Yet, how do we know this really is the Jesus of the Bible speaking? As you flip through the book, you will discover verses written at the end of each devotion (it is written to be used as a devotional book for each day of the year). Since the author uses verses at the end of each devotion, this must mean that this is not a counterfeit Jesus talking, right?
The final authority on anything is the Bible. Even the Jesus of the Bible used it as His final authority. How can we do any different? We must measure everything we read by it. It is no different with a book like Jesus Calling.
So with this in mind, let's look at some examples of the contradictions which occur:
1. On the January 15 devotion, "Jesus" said this:
"The future is a phantom, seeking to spook you. Laugh at the future!"1
But, when we look at Scripture, is this what He says? No, Jesus tells the disciples "to watch and be ready and to not be deceived by the false Christs and false prophets that will come in His name (Matthew 24: 3-5, 24, 42, 44). 2
Hmm, I don't hear anything about laughter when it comes to the future.
2. On the January 28 devotion, "Jesus" said this:
"I am with you always. These were the last words I spoke before ascending into heaven."3
Interesting, because that's not what the Bible says!
His last words "were not that He would be with them but rather that they would be His witnesses: 'And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power. But you shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witness unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth. And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.' (Acts 1:7-9) (emphasis added)" 4
3. The August 23 devotion should really make us pause:
"Entrust your loved ones to Me; release them into My protective care. They are much safer with Me than in your clinging hands. If you let a loved one become an idol in your heart, you endanger that one-as well as yourself. Remember the extreme measures I used with Abraham and Isaac. I took Isaac to the very point of death to free Abraham from son-worship. Both Abraham and Isaac suffered terribly because of the father's undisciplined emotions. I detest idolatry, even in the form of parental love." 5
Where in the Bible does it say this? Which "Jesus" is this information coming from? Most certainly not the Jesus of the Bible. The author twists the account to mean something entirely different than what actually happened. "This perversion of Scripture by the 'Jesus' of Jesus Calling can entice the undiscerning reader into believing this extra-biblical account, which attempts to provide new revelations." 6
I could go on with other examples, but I think that says enough. Please know that I don't say these things to be unkind, but rather to inform others. I, too, did not realize the depth of deception which was occurring here. In fact, we were given a box of these books and I gladly handed them out, thinking I was doing something good. However, since the Holy Spirit has shown me the truth, I have apologized to Him, but I would also like to apologize to anyone reading this blog who received a copy from me. It was done innocently and I certainly don't want to come across as hypocritical.
In part three of this series, we will look at other aspects that make this book a dangerous one to read.
Please don't hesitate to ask any questions or leave any comments (as long as they're done with kindness ) I look forward to hearing from you!

Office design for a new generation
The days of grandiose building lobbies, over-the-top reception areas and "big shot" offices are in the past. Modern companies that want to attract the brightest minds, are rethinking the way their work environments are though-out and designed and built. By doing so, they are creating places and spaces where employees want to come to work and give it their all.

Internet marketing and trademark trouble
Whether it's a local search or nationwide, search engines can provide the answer. There are some drawbacks, however, to this brave new world of marketing. The less obvious disadvantage is the risk of being accused of trademark infringement. Before the Web, it was not uncommon for businesses with similar names and similar products and services to co-exist, each plying its trade in different parts of the country blissfully unaware of the other.

We have been very successful at finding the most effective up to date treatments, many of which you have seen on television and read about in magazines.
