High blood pressure, or hypertension, is the most common chronic adult illness in the United States. There is no cure for high blood pressure, but it can be controlled.
High blood pressure is one of the three major controllable risk factors for cardiovascular disease (risk relates not only to how high your blood pressure is but also to how long it has been raised).
Controlling your blood pressure can also reduce your risk of kidney disease. The sooner your blood pressure is controlled, the less you risk future problems.
High blood pressure can be hereditary. It can also be caused by a number of lifestyle factors, such as being overweight, smoking, or drinking excessive amounts of alcohol. A small number of people have secondary hypertension, which is high blood pressure caused by organ problems or disease.
Two numbers are used to measure your blood pressure: for example, 130 (systolic) over 85 (diastolic). The higher number, the systolic pressure, refers to the pressure inside the artery when the heart squeezes to pump blood through the body. The lower number, the diastolic pressure, refers to the pressure inside the artery when the heart is relaxed and filling with blood. You have hypertension if your systolic pressure is consistently 140 or greater and/or your diastolic pressure is consistently 90 or greater.
Treatment decisions are based on your blood pressure measurement, presence or absence of heart or kidney damage, and presence of other risk factors. Your doctor may give you medications right away or may try a period of lifestyle changes (such as regular exercise or change in diet) for up to 1 year. Depending on your treatment plan and medications prescribed, your doctor will tell you how often to have your blood pressure checked.
Self-Care Steps for High Blood Pressure
Reduce high blood pressure and cardiovascular risks by:
To confirm a hypertension diagnosis, your doctor will need blood pressure readings from two or more visits. The data below outlines blood pressure classifications and the different stages of hypertension.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Pat Summitt's doctors are lucky they are still standing. When the first neurologist told her she had symptoms of early-onset Alzheimer's disease, she almost dropped him with one punch. When a second one advised her to retire immediately, she said, "Do you have any idea who you're dealing with?"
Three months ago, Summitt, 59, the blaze-eyed, clench-fisted University of Tennessee women's basketball coach who has won more games than any other college coach ever, men's or women's, visited the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn. seeking an explanation for a troubling series of memory lapses over the past year. A woman who was always highly organized had to ask repeatedly what time a team meeting was scheduled for. "She lost her keys three times a day instead of once," her son Tyler says. She was late to practice. On occasion, she simply stayed in bed.

Picture Perfect
F-Stop: Photography's Study Abroad Program lands in Florence, Italy
A trip to London convinced Mike Nyklewicz of the impact that travel can have on a student's education.
"I realized that the different cultures, the exposure to a different way of life can really add to the whole educational experience," said Nyklewicz, Chair of Art and Music at Felician, and one of the driving forces behind Felician College's Study Abroad Program.
Currently, the Study Abroad Program consists of a semester-long course of study in a specific field – students meet once weekly in the spring on the Felician campus – and culminate the semester with a three-week long stay in Florence, Italy.
"If you're studying art, Florence is a perfect location," said Nyklewicz, adding that one of the Spring 2013 courses will focus on Photography. The other is Travel Writing.
Once there, Florence "becomes the classroom," he said, noting that course work includes excursions to the many museums, art galleries and churches. Students also are encouraged to get a taste of the local flavor.
Housing is pre-arranged so that the students can live among the local residents.
"Study Abroad is a real eye opener… a mind opener," said Carlo Colecchio, Director of Study Abroad. "Students who study abroad tend to be more academically sophisticated, and are creative thinkers who are more likely to see the interdependence that we all share as global citizens. Moreover, they come back with a greater sense of their place in the world and they are better equipped to work with individuals who are different from themselves."
Nyklewicz added: "And what better way to learn about another culture? The kids are totally immersed in the Italian way of life. They're looking through a lens as well as with all their senses."

Are you able to explain what this does please? I don't have the faintest clue
I added a PET for IBM's Stack Protection Patch. It's simple, but those who have never patched GCC before can benifit.
Are you able to explain what this does please? I don't have the faintest clue
okay here goes nothing, remember I'm not a hardcore programmer, but:
In Asm, fx you can get a creeping stack problem when you push variables onto the stack and forget to pop them off or otherwise adjust the stack pointer correctly.
kinda like this.
push two words (2 x one byte is a word) before a funktion call, then when you return you in your mindlessness only add 2 to the stack pointer (the stack pointer can single out one byte, but we can only push a word, thus adding 2 bytes to the stack pointer is making up for spending one word in the function - as you might have noticed the stack pointer unlike anything else (AFAIK) in memory goes top to buttom). Thus next time you call upon this function you will slowly but surely eat up all your stack space... neat right?
Okay, that was quite simple, overflow attacks are as I understand it an attempt at finding bits of bad code that allow for a creeping stack problem.
At least this is part of what my CPU design lectures are all about, coding good asm, to avoid these nasty stack problems.
There's a text file that explains at bit about stack smashing...
and even more info therehttp://destroy.net/machines/security/
But I've only quick read these articles for about 5 secs
BTW. while I'm at it, OpenBSD has just make the GCC stack smashing protector patch a part of their default compiler, so it has been blessed by the security nuts, thus it must be good right?
One more thing, at least in C/C++ on Linux writing out of bounds on an array will not crash your program as the kernel will expand your allokation, but Windows is not that fancy, it simple crashes the program with a nasty error message.... I would think the Windows way of handling this is smarter as it points out the error quite nicely, on Linux we can have the problem for ages untill someone finds it and uses it for a buffer overflow attack.... So for goodness sack be a safe programmer, there's no shame in counting on a piece of paper when working with arrays and strings, and it will safe you from the common "how many poles goes to make a 10 yard fences if it requires one pole per yard" errors.
I almost forgot, the important bit about stack smashing is of course that you can have important data in the place where you overflow, thus changing parameters for the program and hopefully (if you're a baddie) crashing something important, thus granting you access to the system.
Bravo Lovechild!

I was right in the first go ?? damn... that has never happened to me before when answering programming questions..

Bravo Lovechild!
I was right in the first go ?? damn... that has never happened to me before when answering programming questions..
It was a pretty good explination!
I'll add an simple example as well (all in psuedo-C):
Lets say you wanted to copy a string from one char[] to another char[] ....
The buffer has been overwritten and is interfearing with another programs code. You could continue to write passed the buffer using the 'NULL SLIDE' effect and drop down into an area being controlled by a super user (root/Administrator) and inject shell code OR try to access the operating systems memory section and have the OS execute the code. There is usually some trial and error to try to map some of the stack, but after you get an idea of who's using what where you can chose your attack path.Code:unsigned int LENGTH = 10; char one[LENGTH]; char two[15] = "ashcrowrocks" strcpy(one, two); // overwritten buffer!!!
Two of the most helpfull things for C/C++ code (IMHO) are buffer/stack protection and having a non-executable stack.

CANTON While libraries around the globe brought patrons in Saturday for hours of gaming, Morley Public Library, 7230 County Route 27, was one of the few libraries in St. Lawrence County that were able to participate in this years International Games Day.
Children, college students and adults played games in the library from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday.
It is really about coming and doing something together with people and being more of a community center, librarian Agnes A. Hoey said.
Ms. Hoey, Canton, said it was the second year the library has participated in the international event.
She said she had to sign up online for Morley to become an officially participating library.
People can bring their own cards or games, she said. Last year I asked the Morley Library Association to donate games.
The games were not limited to classic board games, such as chess, checkers and Candy Land. Children were building with Legos, and Ms. Hoey said some children even went outside to kick a soccer ball around since it was such a nice day.
One of the more popular games of the day was a Yu-Gi-Oh card game, which Ms. Hoey said the library had volunteers teaching.
Iggy Gillette-Ferguson, Potsdam, is a certified Yu-Gi-Oh judge for Konami, the company that holds the patent and copyright of the game.
Once the library is signed up for this, Konami sends them a whole demo pack free, she said.
Ms. Gillette-Ferguson said the game is based on monster cards, trap cards and spell cards with the idea to duel your opponent and try to get his or her life points down to zero.
I got into Yu-Gi-Oh because my son was into it, so I became a judge, Ms. Gillette-Ferguson said. We used to travel across the country because he would get invited to the national tournament.
She said she was excited to be able to demonstrate the game at an event in the area.
It gets the kids off of their video games and interacting with peers, she said. It allows the community to come together and even allows parents a new venue to interact with their children.
SUNY Potsdam students Kyle A. Hager, a senior, Cameron M. Dumas, a freshman, Julie V. Mitchell, a sophomore, and Jon C. Somer, a senior, were playing an open tournament of Yu-Gi-Oh at the library Saturday.
Were all members of the SUNY Potsdam Gaming Club and we meet every Wednesday, Mr. Hager said.
Mr. Hager said another member of the club, Gregory T. Cross, a senior at Potsdam, told them about International Games Day being celebrated in Morley.
Mr. Cross is in the same Yu-Gi-Oh judge program as Ms. Gillette-Ferguson and was at the library to help teach the game to newbies.
Its really great to change the location and not always play in the same place, he said.

Mission Statement
The mission of the Premier 235 Solaris is all about family fun. The upper deck not only provides nearly 3/4-length of room for sunning, but also a launch pad off the wet slide into the water. Below, good times can continue under the shaded protection of the upper deck on comfortable furniture arranged in a layout that promotes good times and good conversations.
Certainly the profile of the Premier 235 Solaris takes on a unique characteristic with the addition of the optional upper deck and waterslide.
Distinguishing Features
Optional Upper Deck with Slide. A huge feature given the family fun mission of this boat. It not only provides three-quarter length sun space but an elevated platform for attaching the waterslide, while providing much needed protection from the sun for those below deck.
Quality Furnishings. The quality of the furnishings really needs to be felt to be appreciated but it is clearly premium grade with a Durasoft 7 upholstery vinyl.
Beacon Touch Screen Panel. This innovative touch screen allows complete control of the boat systems as well as a moving map display and video display.
Signature Helm Chair. One of the most comfortable helm chairs we've seen. It swivels, slides and reclines with self-leveling armrests.
Rubber nose cone guards and polished corner castings that include nav lights and docking lights are on the standard equipment list.
ISO 9001:2008 Certified Construction. Premier is proud of the fact that it was the first pontoon boat builder to receive ISO (International Organization for Standardization) certification. ISO certification means that Premier's boats meet international standards and that the company has systems in place to insure each unit made conforms to those standards.
Durasoft 7 vinyl. The vinyl used on all upholstery has the highest stain-resistance in the industry, according to the builder. This is due to the chemical composition of the material at the molecular level. It has a UV inhibitor and protects against mildew and preserves color longer than conventional vinyls.
5-Step Ladder. Most pontoon boats have 3 or 4 steps on their re-boarding swim ladder, but the 250 Solaris has 5 on its ss ladder. It also has two high hand-holds to help bathers get up on deck, much like those seen in a swimming pool.
Positive Airlock System. Premier's PALS (Positive Airlock System) is a proprietary system designed to keep the chambers in its tubes buoyant even if punctured. As water rises to the level of the PALS air vent inside the chamber a valve becomes sealed preventing more water from entering the tube.
Premier's PALS device is a venting system that both reduces condensation in the tubes as well as becoming sealed shut if a chamber is punctured.
5-Year Stem-to-Stern Warranty. Premier's warranty is one of the most comprehensive in the industry for any type of recreational boat. Its warranty states that "Every screw, staple, cleat, bracket, couch, helm, wire, etc. is warranty covered" for 5 years from the date of purchase. In addition there is a limited lifetime warranty on roto-cast furniture frames, Bimini top frames and brackets, welds on tubes, rails and gates, a 5-year limited warranty on carpet, and a 7-year limited warranty on its Durasoft 7 vinyl.
The Premier 235 Solaris has an LOA of 23'5"(7.14 m) and a beam of 8'6" (2.59 m). With an empty weight of 2,650 lbs. (1.202 kg), full fuel and two people onboard we had an estimated test weight of 3.981 lbs. (1.806 kg).
With a single Yamaha F 200 XB turning a 14.5 x 15 Reliance SDS prop we reached a top speed at 6000 rpm of 42.2 mph. At that speed fuel burn was 21.5 gph giving us a range of 94 miles. Best cruise came in at 3000 rpm and 18.4 mph. That speed reduced the fuel burn to 4.8 gph giving the 235 Solaris a range of 182 miles and an endurance of nearly 10 hours while still maintaining a 10% reserve.
Premier offers a number of tube configurations in its boats, and this boat was equipped with the optional 30" (76.2 cm) PTX tubes that include a U-shaped center log with a flat planing surface providing better lift and quick planing times. We reached planing speed on our test in only 3.1 seconds and did so from a nearly level attitude.
The PTX tube also allows the 235 Solaris to display a handling characteristic that separates it from most pontoon boats on the market. During heavy maneuvers it leans into the turns rather than remaining flat or leaning to the outside of the turns. This gives her the feeling more in line with a V-hull boat rather than a pontoon or a catamaran. We would have expected the weight of the upper deck to exaggerate the rolling movment, but if it did it was not noticed. At low speeds, and more docile maneuvers, she will remain flat or lean slightly to the outboard of the turn.
As the 235 Solaris begins a port turn it cannot really be seen how she exhibits a gentle roll into the turn.
The Seastar hydraulic steering had a firm feel as the wheel is rotated through its four turns from lock to lock. While this provided a comfortable, no feedback feel during cruise it wasn't the type of feel that lends itself to cranking and banking through quick maneuvers and that will probably suit all those aboard just fine.
She's also a surprisingly dry boat, taking little to no spray aboard as we tacked back and forth across the wake of the camera boat.
Major Features
The bow of the 250 Solaris is the familiar configuration of the center gate leading in between two couches with curved fronts. The base of the couches are roto-cast molded plastic eliminating the maintenance and concerns about rot of wood construction. Usual accommodations for storage are underneath with clever hinges that allow the cushions to remain open without having to hold them up.
Aesthetically, the couches look as comfortable as they feel. Gentle curves are sewn into the patterns with dual density foam providing added cushioning in all the necessary areas. Thanks to the addition of the center tube, an in-deck storage compartment was added with a ventilated hatch to allow moisture to escape. This compartment is huge, running back to an area level with the helm. The hatch is not lockable, but that is in response to customer requests. Too many people kept losing the key.
Two couches at the bow provide opposing conversational areas as well as comfortable relaxation points. The starboard side not only includes a speaker to the premium stereo system, but an additional sub woofer as well.
The padding is so soft on the couches a person just sinks right into it and is ensconced in comfort.
The seat cushion bases are constructed from waffle boards and lateral structural supports have holes drilled into the bottoms to allow water to drain away.
Premier refers to its helm as the Liberty I design and it includes a Beacon touch screen display in the center giving intuitive access to all of the boat's systems as well as a moving map display. To the sides are Calypso gauges with white oval faces and chrome bezels. The three spoke steering wheel has a curly maple rim that matches the faux wood accents on the helm and side panel. Inputs to the starboard side will accommodate an MP3 player as well as a video player that can be displayed on the touch screen panel.
The entire helm consists of soft tones and darker shades that completely eliminate any concerns for glare.
The theme of sweeping curves continues at the helm. Premier seems to be content with making a departure from the rest of the pontoon industry and mounting their engine controls at the horizontal position rather than at a 45-degree angle. It is a trend we're happy to see. Notice the removable panel underneath that provides access to the inside of the console for wiring access while not impeding legroom.
With the Beacon touch screen display providing controls for all of the boat's systems, only two rocker switches remain necessary.… one to power up the helm panel, and another for the horn. As usual, we like to see the horn switch in red. Notice the faux carbon fiber against the curly maple accents.
This premium Signature helm seat is easily one of the most comfortable we've come across. Just look at the amount of padding on the seat.
The helm seat is on an elevated platform to allow the operator a clear sightline over the heads of the occupants in the forward couch. Notice the conveniently located fire extinguisher.
Moving aft, a single couch wraps around the portside providing a second entertainment area, or a place to relax while watching the wake shrinking in the distance. The same storage accommodations are underneath, as well as the comfort level afforded by double density foam.
The aft couch features the same level of comfort as the dual couches in the bow. Notice the recessed speaker and accommodations for drink holders.
Storage is not only underneath the seat cushions, but under the seatbacks as well. Here the roto- cast molded construction can clearly be seen.
Convenient wastebasket access is located behind the aft seat. The wastebasket can be removed by lifting the seatback.
An inverted paper towel holder is just behind the seat. We think this is the perfect place for it, handy to clean up a mess someone (the kids, of course!) has made on the table.
Behind the aft seating is a sun pad to the port side but also accommodates the changing room and optional head. A walkway leading from the main deck to the reboarding swim ladder is to the starboard side.
The aft sun pad as seen from the upper deck. Also notice the Turbo bar for towing operations surrounding the outboard.
The sun pad lies next to the walkthrough to the swim platform deck.
The changing room is underneath the sun pad. There is also room here for an optional head.
Access to the storage under the aft sun pad is by lifting the pad from the front, or the back. In either position gas assist struts will hold it open.
Upper Deck
The upper deck is one of the coolest options available for this boat, or for that matter any pontoon boat. It added a level of functionality that is just hard to beat. The fences surrounding the upper deck maintain the classic curves of the lower deck along with the color scheme. U-shaped cross members add strength while the bracketed supports not only maintain stability but also seemed to eliminate any sway.
Functions Above. From the inside of the enclosed deck, there was wide open space ready to accommodate deck chairs, lounges, or simply beach towels. Premier correctly went against adding any accoutrements to the upper deck such as a grill or entertainment center as those would add weight and reduce the capacity of the upper deck which is currently listed as five persons or 700 lbs. (318 kg). It's better off utilized as a sunning area and for a launching point to the included waterslide. The shade protection provided to the lower deck will clearly make the difference between enjoying a day on the water and enduring one.
A Special Place. Sun worshipers should take note that the upper deck is an ideal place to work on a tan. First, because of the fencing, toasting bodies will be protected from the wind which sometimes can cause a chill even on a hot day. Second, again because of the fencing and the height of the upper deck, there is quite a bit of privacy for those who would like to get a Brazilian tan.
The upper deck is well supported with tubular uprights that were well-suited to the published weight while at the same time reducing any sway effect.
The aft end of the upper deck consists of the ladder, a U-shaped fence, and the standard wet slide. The safety chain can be deployed while the engine is running to keep the kids safely onboard.
A switch under the sun pad activates the water pump to the wet slide.
Reboarding the 235 Solaris is by stepping aboard this 5 step ladder. Note the solid grab rails to either side, and note the wide treads.
The optional Turbo bar ($922) allows the towline to swing back and forth across the engine on a roller.
The PTX Hull System
This drawing from the Premier website shows the relative sizes and shapes of the toons used by many pontoon builders compared to the ones used in the Premier PTX system. Standard pontoon diameters used by most builders range from 23" to 27" (58 to 68 cm) with the center toon being larger in some cases, but not in all.
The standard 235 Solaris Hull Configuration has logs that are each 25" in diameter and the boat comes in both two log and three log (optional) configurations. With two tubes, the 235 Solaris has a person capacity of 12 people and is rated for a maximum of 125-hp. The three-tube version is rated for 15 people and a max of 200-hp.
The PTX hull system used in the 235 Solaris that we tested has a rated capacity of 16 people and a maximum horsepower rating of 225. This pontoon has a 12" (30 cm) flat bottom. It is not cylindrical but rather is U-shaped, more like that of a log canoe. The 36" center log is 15% larger than conventional elliptical tubes and 27" round ones. This means the PTX system has more buoyancy.
Lifting Strakes. The PTX system has two lifting strakes, one placed on the inside of the two outer tubes. The company says this increases the boat's top speed by 10%, helps in turning and allows the boat to plane quicker.
The PTX system's lifting strakes are large and dramatically improve the boat's performance, according to the builder.
Weight is Important. As noted above the upper deck has a capacity of 700 lbs. (318 kgs.). That can account for a whole neighborhood of little kids scampering up the ladder and sliding into the water.
The 235 Solaris carries a base price of $30,714 without engine. Our Yamaha F 200 added $17,990, and with additional options (including the upper deck and slide) the price as tested is $72,246. A lot of good times can be had on this boat for that price and as the good times have family squarely targeted, some would consider that return on the investment priceless.
The upper deck has a lot of appeal for children and grandchildren. In fact, we never cease to be amazed at how many times youngsters can go down a waterslide and never tire of it. Each trip is a new adventure.
We have mentioned some of the benefits of the upper deck for serious sun bathers, but it is also a very special place to host a few friends during a evening cruising in places such as Ft. Lauderdale, West Palm, the west coast of Florida, some Southern California locations, and on lakes and rivers all over the country. In fact, one of Premier's owners with an upper deck is one of the nation's most famous member of the upper crust.
Premier is well-known for doing customized work and we would suggest that anyone wanting to carry more than 700 lbs. on the upper deck to simply ask a Premier dealer what can be done. The company tells us that some of their best innovations have come from customer requests.

These M-38s are in excellent condition! This is the first shipment we have received in years.
In 1938 a carbine was adopted as the "7,62 mm Carbine,
Model of the Year 1938", commonly known as the M38 in the US, but did not go into
production until 1939. It is essentially a shorter version of the M91/30 and was built at
Izhevsk until 1945. There was limited production at Tula in 1940 and again in 1944. Both
arsenals built some M38s on recycled receivers, both hex and round. Tula M38s are uncommon
at the least and sought after by collectors as are 1939 and 1945 dated examples. The M38
was not designed to accept a bayonet since it's intended use was by rear area troops.
Stocks made in 1939 and early 1940 had the rear barrel band shoulder close to the rear
sight base but this was soon moved forward to bring the pattern in line with the typical
M91/30 stock configuration, with the exception of the fore-end.

By Allan on 3/25/2011 Allan would recommend this product to a friend I was hesitant to buy this, given the premium price, but it keeps my sump level incredibly steady. MUCH better than the upside-down water cooler jug gravity feed setup I had before. The only odd thing about it is that it runs the pump for about 5 seconds or so any time you pull the plug and plug it back in. Not an issue unless you're turning it on and off a lot. Though that could happen if you have it on a controller set to only turn it on for say 5 minutes every hour. Just something to be aware of. Worth the price ... By Larry on 3/14/2011 Larry would recommend this product to a friend The Tunze osmolator is not the cheapest ATO, but I think it is the best. Worth the price for piece of mind. Best money I ever spent!! By Steve on 2/2/2011 Steve would recommend this product to a friend I cant say how many times I let my ro run into my tank to top it off and forgot about it.this is set it and forget it.I have the pump in a reservoir that has a float switch connected to my ro.Nothing better than having one less thing to do to your tank.Pump is loud though just so you know but the water level is extremely precise. Awesome By David on 1/6/2011 David would recommend this product to a friend After having a little trouble getting the osmolator working I emailed Tunze and washed the sensor with soapy water. This thing is awesome. I'm glad I spent the money and bought it over other float switches. First in Class By Downbeach on 12/13/2010 Downbeach would recommend this product to a friend Works flawlessly, set it and forget it. Love it! By Geddy on 11/12/2010 Geddy would recommend this product to a friend This is the best investment I have made in reef keeping. Works perfectly in my setup and has been running strong for 3 years plus. At the time I was worried about the cost but now I would not hesitate if I needed another for a second setup. The new magnet mount looks like a nice upgrade too. A quick dip in vinegar every 3 months or so is the only maintenance I have ever done on the unit. You need to keep you outlet line above the storage tank BTW to avoid a siphon. My favorite product By John on 9/27/2010 John would recommend this product to a friend I don't know how many times I have come home to my sump pump running dry! No longer! I love not having to constantly check the water level in my sump. Product has exceeded my expectations and has yet to fail on me (not expecting it to). Perfect!!! By Ferdinand on 8/10/2010 Ferdinand would recommend this product to a friend Very easy set up and great product. Oh and make sure u clean the eye first before setting up. :) And also the price should be on the $150 price range. Best Investment Ever!!! By David on 7/2/2010 David would recommend this product to a friend Hands down the best investment i,ve made in this hobby.This thing is dead accurate.Set it and forget it.Very easy to install ,easy to clean and very dependable.If you think the pump is loud just suspend it in the reservoir and you can barely hear it when it kicks on.Would recommend great product! superb unit By David on 5/19/2010 David would recommend this product to a friend uses solid state sensor instead of float unit. does have a float unit as backup in case of primary sensor failure. has kept my sump level dead steady. pump initially had some noise but that went away after a few cycles and now is quiet. i did have an issue with some bubbles that collect on the sensor cause the unit to think the water level was low. fixing the bubble problem ended this problem. seems like a lot of $ for an autotop off, but well worth it in my opinion. Works very nicely By Dean Craft on 4/13/2010 Dean Craft would recommend this product to a friend Peace of mind that leaving your system for a few days will not result in a major disaster. Found no problems in setup, and it seems to require little, if any, further tweaking. I like to keep my tank covered tightly to minimize evaporation. If you fail to do this you will be adding lots of makeup water to your topoff tank. The other advantage of a secure cover is that the jumpers such as warsses do not go "carpet surfing" as they are very prone to do. The best By Ryan on 4/9/2010 Ryan would recommend this product to a friend Only top off I will use. The electric eye is a billion times more reliable than a mechanical float switch. Great Product By David on 2/16/2010 David would recommend this product to a friend Really easy to set up. Make sure you clean the "eye". Makes it easier to adjust at first. Outstanding! By Erik on 2/12/2010 Erik would recommend this product to a friend One of the best purchases I have made for my reef. Makes life so much easier verses manual top offs and it is very reliable. The "eye" is accurate and it even has a float switch as a safety that will shut off the unit and activate a rather loud buzzer. I use a five gallon bucket of RODI water as a reservoir and it works great. If the bucket runs dry the pump will auto shut off after a few minutes to keep from burning itself up and again sound the alarm. I used the magnetic brackets to mount the eye and the "shut off" float a few inches higher up separately in my sump. One of the brackets is setup to hold both the sensor and float if that would suite your setup. The magnets are quite strong so you can be confident the "eye" isn't going to slide anywhere and change your sump level. One caution...I had an issue with it over filling my sump and setting off the buzzer the first few days. Couldn't figure out what was going on at first and then it hit me...and I felt foolish. This may seem like common sense but mind where you place the top off tube. I had tucked it down into the water next to my return pump to keep splashing noise down. Well...next to a full 5 gallon bucket full of RO water...once the pump started the siphon even after the pump cut off gravity continued to empty the bucket into my sump. So I shook my head and placed the tube a few inches from the top of the sump tank...above the water level in the bucket...problem solved.

Multifunctional brilliant design.
The power, features, and pedigree to outperform competing nearfield monitors!
Of all the important gear that makes up a recording studio, the monitors are amongst the most essential pieces of equipment in terms of how the finished recording will sound. Thankfully, this selection of studio monitors consists of only the world's most renowned and respected brands.
From ADAM and Alesis to M-Audio, PreSonus and more, these companies have reputations throughout the industry for crafting fantastic studio monitors that are durable, easy to setup, and sound sonically pristine. Whether you're making an upgrade or building a home studio from scratch, you can easily discover what you're looking for within this selection.
For a lightweight set of monitors that are both clear and versatile, the JBL LSR305 5" powered studio monitors are ideal for amateur and professional studio usage. These monitors are also the first to incorporate JBL's exciting new technology, the Image Control Waveguide, allowing you to hear a detail and depth that is simply unmatched when compared to other studio monitors of its kind. Another big seller is the Neumann KH 120 Active Nearfield studio monitor. Made specifically for use as a near-field loudspeaker or a rear loudspeaker in large multi-channel systems, these monitors are just another reason why Neumann has remained an undisputed leader in studio electronics for over 70 years.
A lot of amateur recording enthusiasts rely on headphones to monitor their mixes. And although this is a convenient way to do things privately without disturbing anyone, headphones also have a tendency to add more bass and treble than there actually is in the mix. Studio monitors, on the other hand, will give you a more honest presentation of the recording. Simply put, every studio should be equipped with studio monitors... and for a final product that sounds flawless and more than worthy of presenting to the world, the monitors you need can be found right here.
Our product catalog varies by country due to manufacturer restrictions. If you change the Ship-To country, some or all of the items in your cart may not ship to the new destination.

The Utah Division of Consumer Protection frequently receives complaints from individuals residing at locations across the state who have lost money to scam artists promising guaranteed loans in exchange for an up-front processing or application fee.
By the time the consumers realize that they have fallen victim to a scam, the application fees are lost more often than not, explained the state agency.
Advertisements for the fraudulent advanced fee loans typically appear in classified sections of newspapers, magazines and tabloids, cautioned the consumer protection division.
But the advanced fee loans can also be marketed on the Internet or broadcast on the radio and television.Â
The scam artists usually target people who are out of work or who have poor credit ratings, pointed out the consumer protection division.Â
Many times, the people who seek the types of loans are in a desperate financial condition and view the offers as a last hope.
According to the consumer protection division, the majority of the up-front fee loan schemes include several common characteristics.
An individual responds to an advertisement, usually by calling an 800 or 900 telephone number.
The company will promise or strongly suggest that a loan will be provided for an up-front fee regardless of the applicant's credit record.Â
The advance fees sometimes total several hundred dollars, noted the state agency.
The promise is usually made that the fee will be credited toward the repayment of the loan or refunded if the application is denied.Â
Often, the scam artists claim that the up-front fee is for credit insurance.
The unwary consumer may wait for several weeks or months only to find out the loan has been denied and the fee is not refundable, regardless of earlier promises, noted the state agency.Â
Or the consumer may never hear from the company and ever learn that money is being withdrawn from bank accounts or credit card charges are being made with information provided in the loan application.
It is important for Carbon County residents to recognize an advance-fee loan before becoming involved with the potential scam, stressed the consumer protection division.
The state agency cautions local residents to beware of:
â¢Loans requiring large up-front fees.
Even if a refund is promised, the operator may have no intention of honoring the pledge.
â¢Guaranteed loan offers.
Legitimate lending organizations generally require a minimal credit level for loan recipients.
â¢Requests to send applications and fees through a delivery business other than the United States Postal Service.Â
The ploy is used in an effort to avoid postal inspectors and possible mail fraud charges, explained the state's consumer protection division.
â¢Companies operating from different states.Â
In almost all scams, operators seldom conduct business in home states, which makes it more difficult for people to obtain reliable information about the company, advised the consumer protection division.Â
The local scam operations also change locations frequently in an effort to avoid detection and criminal prosecution.Â
The scam artists may also use mail-drop boxes and might not work from the state to which consumers sent the loan application.
â¢Advertisements that direct consumers to call an 800 or 900 telephone number.Â
Some 800 numbers direct consumers to call a 900 number. Consumers may also be switched to a 900 line without their knowledge, according to the state agency.Â
Charges for 900 number calls have been reported to be more than $50 for a single call, continued the consumer protection division.
A company that advertises through a recognized medium or offers a money-back guarantee is not necessarily legitimate, pointed out the consumer protection division. A guarantee is only as good as the organization behind it.Â
Carbon County residents should make sure that the company they are dealing with is bonded or has a trust account established in Utah, concluded the consumer protection division.

Dan Be
Hey Ya,
This is the front wheel only. We have sold out of the rear wheel.
What is the maximum tire pressure using the carbon wheel? My friend recommends me to use 60 psi max. Otherwise, the carbon rim will easily be damaged.
Dan Be
Hey Topconlcd,
Easton recommends you do not run more than 50 psi with these wheels.
Hugo Castellanos
Great light and strong wheels.

Had Mavic Crossmax SLRs on my Santa Cruz Blur TR C before these wheels, and the Eastons are 160g lighter and just as strong, or maybe even stronger . It seems like they hold a line a bit better than the Mavics.

Softball Drops Two at No. 21 Tulsa
TULSA, Okla. -- The Creighton Softball team had trouble with one of the nation's top pitching staffs, as No. 21 Tulsa blanked the Bluejays in a pair of games at the Tulsa Invitational on Friday.
Creighton was no-hit in the first game, falling 3-0, before losing the nightcap 8-0 in six innings
No. 21 Tulsa 3, Creighton 0 (Game One)
In the opener, 2013 Conference USA Pitcher of the Year Aimee Creger struck out 17 in a dominant no-hit effort. Creger allowed just one baserunner, a five-pitch walk to Blake Ringle in the second inning. Pinch-runner Erin McGonigal would be stranded at second to end CU's only threat of the contest.
Tulsa got all three of its runs in the bottom of the fifth inning. Haley Henshaw started the rally with a one-out single, then moved to second on a wild pitch by Alexis Cantu. Jill Barrett reached via an infield single before Shelby Blanton's two-run triple. Blanton would later score on pinch-hitter Kaitlin Allen's single.
Cantu threw a complete game but fell to 2-2, allowing nine hits and striking out seven in 6.0 innings of work.
Creger (7-0) earned the victory, throwing her fifth career no-hitter, and setting a Tulsa single-game record for strikeouts.
No. 21 Tulsa 8, Creighton 0 (6 innings)
Tulsa completed the doubleheader sweep with an 8-0 victory over Creighton in game two. Creighton's offense was better, but seven runners were left on base including three in scoring position.
Creighton's best chance came in the top of the third inning of a scoreless game. CU loaded the bases with one out, but a strikeout and fielder's choice ended the prime opportunity.
Tulsa made CU pay in the home half of the inning as Jill Barrett turned a leadoff single into an unearned run to make it 1-0.
The Golden Hurricane blew the game wide open with a four-run fourth inning, three of those of the unearned variety and two of the runs coming after reaching via a walk.
Tulsa closed the game via the run-rule with three runs in the sixth, with two more of those being unearned. Barrett homered on the first pitch of the inning, and Maggie Withee later ended the game with a walk-off infield single.
Becca Changstrom (2-4) suffered the loss. She allowed eight runs, but only two were earned after the CU defense made three errors.
Caitlin Sill threw the first four innings for UT, allowing two hits and two walks to improve to 4-2. Bailey Erwin threw the final two innings.
Creighton closes out play at the Tulsa Invitational on Saturday with a 10 am game vs. Northwestern State.

NEWPORT–Anna Bingham hit a two-run homer to tie the game in the bottom of the seventh, but Burlington would score in the eighth, as the Falcons fell 4-3 in extra innings.
It was a much better outing for the girls, who were coming off of a 23-2 loss to Vergennes just two days earlier.
While it was a low scoring game overall, things got off to a bang when Erika Lyon went deep off of NCU's starting pitcher Taylor Blake.
Blake would settle down after that, and hold the Seahorses off the board until the seventh.
Meanwhile, the Falcons waited until the 6th inning before tying the game.
Blake started the rally with a single, and eventually came around to score, making it 1-1.
In the seventh, Mallory Cross and Lyon both singled and scored to push the score to 3-1.
In the Falcon half of the seventh, Maddie Mosher hit a two-out single, followed by Bingham's blast to left-center, and we were off to extra innings.
Burlington's Nicky Raub would come across to score the game-winning run on a past-ball in the top of the eighth to give the Seahorses the win.
Taylor Blake went the distance for NCU, striking out 6 while walking 1, as the Falcons move to 0-3 on the year.
Ilona Maher got the complete game win, fanning 6 and walking 2.
The Falcons will travel across the state on Wednesday to face Rice at 4:30.

Suchitra Sen stable but not out of danger
Veteran Bengali actress Suchitra Sen is in stable condition but not out of danger after she was put on bi-level positive airway pressure (BPAP), a non-invasive positive pressure ventilation measure, doctors said Sunday.
"Yesterday (Saturday), Sen suffered severe breathlessness because of congestion in the lungs for which she had to be intubated. It helped her clear the lungs and we got support of non-invasive ventilation through the tube," said Subrata Maitra, one of the team of experts monitoring her at the Belle Vue Clinic.
"Someone who is in ITU and whose oxygen dependence and requirement is high, needing non-invasive ventilation and intubation cannot be said to be out of danger," he added.
Maitra said a nasogastric feeding tube was inserted to feed the actress in addition to the intravenous fluid she has been receiving since Friday.
"Overall her condition is stable now and we are monitoring as to how she behaves when we remove the tube because we are not planning to keep the tube for long," he said.
Sen's family members have been by her bedside throughout the day and the actress has been communicating through signs and gestures.
"She has been using signs and gestures to communicate, she raised her hand in the affirmative when we asked about inserting the feeding tube," added Maitra.
Sen's fluctuating condition Saturday had prompted Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee to rush to the nursing home for the third consecutive day. Banerjee again visited the actress Sunday.
On Sunday also, Sen had visitors in the form of state Congress president Pradip Bhattacharya and a group of monks from the Ramakrishna Math and Ramakrishna Mission - of which Sen is a disciple.
Following the frequent visits of politicians, including the chief minister, the security in and around the nursing home has been beefed up.
The 82-year-old initially suffered chest infection, and was undergoing treatment for it at the nursing home since Dec 23. Her condition worsened Dec 28 night.
Following complications, Sen was put on the ventilator Jan 3.
Sen, dubbed as Greta Garbo of Bengali cinema, has remained an engima as she has avoided spotlights since her retirement. She gave power-packed performances in highly acclaimed films such as "Deep Jwele Jaai" and "Uttar Falguni" in Bengali as well as Hindi movies "Devdas", "Bombai Ka Babu", "Mamta" and "Aandhi".
She won the best actress award for "Saat Paake Bandha" at the Moscow Film Festival in 1963.

The company Huawei has now announced their brand-new MediaTab tablet. The new tablet will run on the Android 3.2 operating system, which is also known as honeycomb. It will be a 7 inch tablet provided by Huawei, a company that has been looking to get into the tablet industry for quite some time. The MediaTab will have a 1.2 GHz dual core processor, along with a nice five megapixel camera at the back of the device, accompanied by a 1.3 megapixel camera at the front of the device that will support video chats, and other great features that should make it one of the premier tablets released in recent memory.
Along with the previously mentioned features you can also look forward to a top-of-the-line WiFi network technology, and HDM I out output that will allow for you to play the tablet screen on other displays including your television set, a micro-SD card slot that will allow you to add up to 32 GB of additional storage, expanding the functionality of the device as a whole. The Huawei media pad is one that has been highly anticipated by users for quite some time, and the specs that we have seen so far seem to deliver on the demands and expectations of their customers. The device will supposedly have an excellent battery life that will be much longer than most of the tablets that are currently out there on the market. At the very least, they are expected to deliver more than six hours of battery life and all. The MediaTab is expected to launch for the first time for consumer purchases this fall.
So far the company has not indicated what the price for the tablet will be. It is expected, that the device will be relatively low-priced in an effort to make it affordable to the average user. Huawei is a company that has been teeming with American companies in recent times to expand their reach to North America, even though they are already quite a popular company throughout Asia for their excellent contributions to both the mobile phone market as well as the smart device market as a whole. This will be their first tablet they have released and a lot is expected out of the Huawei MediaTab.
PureMobile carries wide range of cell phone accessories and unlocked android phone such as LG Eve Gw 620, HTC Desire, etc..

Comments about Evolv Roundtangular Chalk Bag:
First chalk bag I bought and basically only picked it becauase it matched my harness colors. That said, it works just fine and I don't really have issues with it. The chalk does spill from time to time, but it seems like that's pretty normal. Or maybe I just haven't figured out the sweet spot of how much I should have it open while I climb.
It's affordable and I think a great option for a beginner.

Liver Cell Transplant for Phenylketonuria
- Full Text View
- Tabular View
- No Study Results Posted
- Disclaimer
- How to Read a Study Record
The purpose of this research study is to determine whether partial irradiation of the liver and liver cell transplantation can reduce the need for dietary and medical management or could possibly eliminate the need for a special diet and medications to treat this disease for patients with phenylketonuria (PKU) by normalizing phenylalanine levels in the body. Phenylalanine (Phe) is a substance needed in the body that can only be obtained from the foods people eat. People with PKU cannot get rid of Phe in their body. Large amounts of Phe can cause problems, such as deterioration of mental function. At the present time, liver cell transplants are experimental and have been done in only a limited number of human subjects.
Radiation: Preparative Radiation Therapy
Procedure: Hepatocyte Transplant
Drug: Immunosuppression
Other: Liver Evaluation
Behavioral: Psychological Assessment
Phase 1
Phase 2
|Study Type:
|Study Design:
|Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study
Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment
Masking: Open Label
Primary Purpose: Treatment
|Official Title:
|Hepatocyte Transplantation for Phenylketonuria
- Improvement/reversal of characteristics of PKU [ Time Frame: 6 months post hepatocyte transplant ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Measured as a 50% decrease in Phe from baseline study level.
- Engraftment of Hepatocytes [ Time Frame: 6 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Liver biopsy samples may be obtained if a response is ascertained after 6 months. (The approach used, surgical vs percutaneous needle biopsy, will be determined by the clinical setting.)
- Engraftment of Hepatocytes [ Time Frame: up to one year ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Laboratory tests of hepatic function
|Estimated Enrollment:
|Study Start Date:
|December 2011
|Estimated Study Completion Date:
|December 2015
|Estimated Primary Completion Date:
|November 2015 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
|Assigned Interventions
Experimental: Hepatocyte Transplantation
See Below.
Radiation: Preparative Radiation Therapy
Subjects will undergo CT-based simulation and treatment planning for radiation therapy. Once a suitable hepatocyte donor is found and the cell count and viability is acceptable for transplantation, patients will receive Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) in one fraction(10 Gy)to the right lobe of the liver (but not exceeding 50% of the liver mass).Procedure: Hepatocyte Transplant
Within a maximum of two days after hepatic irradiation,the right or main portal vein will be occluded transiently (60-90 min)to provide a compensatory mitotic signal to donor hepatocytes. Directly following this transient occlusion of the portal vein, donor hepatocytes will be transplanted into the irradiated portion of the recipient's liver. If at 6 months we see an improvement in PHE tolerance but not normalization (i.e. PHE levels from 6 mg/dl to 10 mg/dl) on an unrestricted PHE diet, we will recommend re-transplantation with a goal of complete correction of PKU. Subjects will be re-evaluated every 6 months for re-transplantation.Drug: Immunosuppression
Following transplantation, patients will be treated with conventional immune suppression, as is used following whole organ liver transplantation. Patients will be followed as routinely performed following organ transplantation and also followed as would normally be performed for their PKU.Other: Liver Evaluation
Prior to the hepatocyte transplant subjects will undergo a liver evaluation which is standard for all patients who have whole organ transplants at Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC. The evaluation includes immunosuppression medication education, psychological assessment, bloodwork to assess blood count, blood and tissue type, blood chemistries, immune system function and certain infectious diseases and abdominal ultrasound to assess blood flow to the blood vessels in the liver.Behavioral: Psychological Assessment
Subjects may undergo a psychological assessment at least 6 months post-transplant which will include a semi-structure open ended interview as well as the Adaptive Behavior Assessment System-II assessment and Beck Depression Inventory. If subjects undergo these assessments, they will be compared to those obtained pre-transplant to determine whether an improvement is associated with the transplant procedure. In addition, if subjects are experiencing depression, they will be referred for further care.
Detailed Description:
Human phenylketonuria (PKU) results from phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) deficiency, and represents one of the most common and extensively studied single-gene Mendelian disorders in humans. Unfortunately, optimum clinical outcome demands lifelong dietary restriction through adherence to an unpalatable and expensive artificial diet. Challenges in maintaining traditional therapy lead to increasing phenylalanine (Phe) levels in patients as they approach adulthood with an incumbent severe burden of psychosocial and intellectual difficulties. The recent introduction of the new medication Sapropterin for treatment of PKU has improved Phe control and dietary tolerance in some patients, but at enormous cost to patients and insurers for the FDA designated orphan product. Thus, there is an unmet need for novel therapies to correct PKU. PAH is almost exclusively expressed in the liver in humans. The main objective of the current proposal is to determine the feasibility of hepatocyte transplantation to correct the biochemical (and ultimately, clinical) features of PKU.
|Ages Eligible for Study:
|18 Years and older
|Genders Eligible for Study:
|Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
Inclusion Criteria:
- Previous diagnosis of classical PKU (Phe >20 mg/dl) Phe level greater than 10 mg/dl in past 6 months or any measure of Phe >20 mg/dl in past 6 months.
- Psychological assessment in the past year
- I.Q. >70 as assessed by Wechsler Abbreviated Scale of Intelligence (2-subtest IQ)
- Must have careful dietary management for one month in PKU clinic.
Exclusion Criteria:
- No biopterin synthestase defects
- Subject has active malignancy.
- Subject has allergy to immune suppression medications that are required post transplant procedure for the prevention of rejection.
- Subject has sepsis, pneumonia, other active infection or secondary life-threatening organ dysfunction.
- Liver biopsies, not necessarily a consideration for organ transplantation, but a contraindication at this time to cell transplantation if significant fibrosis was identified, may be performed if there is clinical indication of liver disease. Significant liver fibrosis will be defined by the Ishak Staging, Stage 5: bridges with occasional nodules.
- Subject is pregnant or breastfeeding.
- Subject has positive HIV serostatus.
