Won't Haye - Chisora be a re-make of Haye - Ruiz
Ruiz was a come forward pressure fighter (way past his best) and Haye just battered him to the stoppage,
i just dont see much skill in Chisora, people say he won a few rounds against Vitali, but remember how old Vitali is,
i think this is a mis-match but will definitely be entertaining to watch

Is Haye the same fighter as he was when he fought Ruiz? Is he better from the lay off & experience of fighting Klitschko or worse? He was seen as pretty fearsome (for his size) prior to the Klitschko fight & he's now regarded as a joke by many due to his excessive boasting & toe excuse. Will this affect his psyche & we'll see him trying to bomb out Chisora early or will he use his speed & boxing skill (both considerably better than Dereck) to wear Chisora down?
And will Chisora come in in Helenius & Vitali shape or Tyson Fury shape? The fat lump that stumbled around after Fury last summer won't go six rounds.
And Ruiz wasn't the worst heavyweight in history. Not even the worst heavyweight champ in history. Considering he wasn't the most talented boxer around he did bloody good. I have more respect for someone like him than a talented fighter that squanders his gift.

It will be better than Ruiz fight, that was Ruiz's last fight. Ruiz was not the worst champ ever, he just was around when the division was weak. All Lennox had to do was fight Ruiz and he would have never been champ at all. Ruiz was KO'd by Tua in 19 seconds, so that is not fair to Chisora to compare him to Ruiz.
Haye-Chisora should be a good fight, based on the hatred those two have for each other, its a shame Vitali won't be fighting Haye, cause he is retiring.

The water pump went out on the car and it had to sit for 3 months, it ran ok except overheating. Nw that that is fixed, it will not accelerate. I have to pump the gas pedal to get it to go, once over 50 mph it runs ok. It also stalls at lights. We have put 1/2 tank of 93 octane, Heet, Octane Booster and Injector Cleaner in the tank but no help. Replaced the fuel filter and checked vacuum hoses.... NOTHING HELPS.

Many Loves
"Ben Weeks has Many Loves" was a 2-year project. I researched creative leaders around the world, created an icon for each of them to represent their work, found their contact information, hand-customized 1200 posters for each recipient and mailed them out.
It was great to hear back from GQ, Hillstone New York Times Magazine, Rodrigo Corral and Apple. The project won lots of blog coverage and awards from D&AD and Communication Arts (No. 392 May/June 2013 pg.71) Over 4 years, my compounding annual rate of return on the project turned out to be 32.09% which was a 3X return on my investment.

Early Work
I was a second year illustration student when this work was published into American Illustration, beating hundreds—even thousands of submissions from professionals. The book recognizes the strongest images of the year. One of the judges was the guy who did the cartoons on SNL. So it was a great honour.
The twins are in the womb, dreaming of something to come in another world.
This work was also done for fun on my own when I was an art student. I always had wanted to be an astronaut. Being an artist was a pragmatic compromise. Anyway the intensity, innovation and desire for discovery I love. We often in the west overlook the contributions and achievements Russia made. They have an aesthetic that's less familiar than the images we're more familiar with. So that was a fun collection of iconography to explore.
This was when I stopped drawing in the classical style and found the confidence to play and discover my own voice. I did a series of works I can post if you're interested. I love the decisions in this drawing and the others. Some of the best I've ever done. Though commercially, people don't often ask for this look. It would be amazing to draw a celebrity portrait from life sometime.
Good things to be. Love the graphic shapes and fragile lines. These were printed as banners for a church I grew up in where my dad had been one of the pastors as a kid.
The mint chocolate chip ice-cream floats by his fallen comrades in the frozen section of the super market.
I was also an art student sometime in 2002-03 when I did this one. It was based on some sketches I'd done for fun in my sketchbook that our awesome teacher (Paul Dallas) encouraged me to explore further. The brief had been to make something for inflight purchases for Virgin Airlines if I recall. For a sophisticated audience. I imagined a kind of very cool king who could fly with the power of his own beard.

Very nice, very very nice- a pleasantly buzzy atmosphere, good quality "modern British" cuisine , in reality meaning borrowing Mediterranean and a few Asian and North African motifs.
The claim that all produce is from Cornwall stretches credulity somewhat- I doubt the olives that are relentlessly upsold hail from Kernow- but there's so much else to enjoy. It's tough to beat the set menu...more
Despite being a smallish location trying to cope with our large group they managed very well. To begin with they explained how many of each dish they had available to ensure hopes were not raised and dashed.
The food was very nice along with a good selection of beers I hadn't tried. I would check the menu before you go as whilst tasty some may find some of the dishes acquired tastes or have...more
Good food but a la carte pricing which i find a terrible new practice.
Would you like bread? - Sure... well they're not that great because they're still trying out recipes but that will cost you 3.50 for our experimental bread. No bueno.
Would you like olives? - Sure. Its olives and onions in a vinegar dealy... again, it felt like it wasn't a polished starter that customers have to pay for...more
Saturday lunch with the Mrs. Return visit for us loving the summer menu. Sea bream was superb. Also mrs is going vegan for a while and despite no direct vegan options on the menu they were incredibly accommodating and made some of the best vegan food we've eaten out. Such a great place. Coming back again soon.more

Skip to comments.Germany's message to Muslims: Go home
Posted on 10/20/2010 9:11:40 AM PDT by NCjim
Multiculturalism has completely failed.
Thats the assessment of Angela Merkel, chancellor of Germany, in a recent speech before the youth wing of her conservative political party, the Christian Democratic Union. The idea that disparate peoples can simply live side by side and live happily with each other has failed, she said. Utterly failed.
Merkel insisted that Germany still welcomes immigrants, particularly those whose high-tech skills make them valuable workers. But she conditioned that welcome upon a warning: We feel bound to the Christian image of humanity that is what defines us. Those who do not accept this are in the wrong place here.
To put that another way: Muhammad, go home.
Merkels words have yet to gain much traction on this side of the Atlantic, but they have roiled the political landscape in Germany, which like much of Europe is struggling to manage an influx of immigrants of Arabic origin and Islamic faith. The U.S. State Department reports that Germany is now home to 3.5 million Muslims.
So there are mosques where there were not before along with women in scarves, people with foreign accents, ghettoized poverty and a fear that some core aspect of the nations character, its very German-ness, is under assault.
Last year, the head of Germanys central bank published a book, Germany is Destroying Itself, arguing that the influx of Muslims was lowering the nations intelligence. He was censured and fired, but the book was popular and the country seemed to agree with its thesis. The Guardian newspaper of London reports that, according to one recent poll, a third of all Germans believe their country is being overrun by foreigners.
And if Merkels declaration has received scant notice in the United States, that will likely change soon. Her words will surely be manna to the constellation of xenophobic bloggers and pundits for whom it is an article of faith that Muslims and Hispanics are agents of ruin. They would laud her contention that multiculturalism is unworkable and undermines national character.
Of course, America isnt Germany. Americas mainstream culture is already made, and has always been made, of other cultures. So that if apple pie is quintessentially American, well, so are burritos, borscht, sauerkraut, paella and sweet potato pie.
That said, proponents of multiculturalism should concede this much: It is not easy, being diverse. To the contrary, its a challenging thing.
Diversity raises questions that are thorny and defiant of easy answers. From the Muslim woman whose religious sensibilities required her employer, Disneyland, to design a uniform with a head covering, to arguments over a schoolbook some American Cubans thought painted too rosy a picture of that island, from debate over whether and how to dismantle the dont ask, dont tell policy restricting gay service in the military, to arguments over how and when Español es hablado in public, managing diversity often means managing a delicate balance between accommodation and coercion, between expectation and fear, between reverence for what was, then, and sensitivity to what is, now.
The only thing worse than living in a nation that seeks to achieve that balance is living in one that does not.
So with due respect to Germany, it is impossible not to consider the source here. We should all be alive to the grim historical resonance of a German chancellor declaring the idea of disparate cultures living peaceably side by side a failure. What, after all, is the alternative? Shall Germany officially declare itself a nation with room enough for one culture only? For the record, thats been tried already. And it didnt work so well, either.
And the Nazis were allied with Muslims in WW2.
I agree with her...multiculturism is a gigantic failure when immigrants won't assimilate.
The Muslim criteria is incompatible with modern society. It is NOT a religion. It is and always has been...a politicaql movement.
A pro-Islamic cartoonist. Why should people be allowed to invade another country, demand freebies and to change their culture. No thanks. The Germans are correct.
A pro-Islamic cartoonist. Why should people be allowed to invade another country, demand freebies and to change their culture. No thanks. The Germans are correct.
Muslims in Germany are doing the same thing. They want to take over Europe. What is Europe to do? Either they stand up to them or let them take over. I see big trouble in Europe over this. Hopefully, Europe will come together and stop them.
Hear, hear!
I'm sure the inevitable comparisons with the Nazis will now commence from the Left.
One of the things the Nazis hated about the Jews, was to the level that they did assimilate into German society. The Nazis didn't care whether or not Jews assimilated into the country, they were all the same, even those Jews who served in the German Army in WWI were held in contempt.
A young Arab asks his father:
What is this weird hat that we are wearing ?
It's a "chechia" because in the desert it protects our heads from the sun !
And what is this type of clothing that we are wearing ?
It's a "djbellah" because in the desert it is very hot and it protects your body !
And what are these ugly shoes that we have on our feet ?
These are "babouches", which keep us from burning our feet when in the desert !
Tell me, papa...
Yes, my son ?
... Why are we living in Dearborn, Michigan and still wearing all this crap?
And Muslims are the only people I saw litter in Germany. You can imagine how that goes over with Germans.
Let me see here; what is a nation? A nation defines borders, language and culture. If you don't want to be part of those national components, get on to one that suits you. Duh.
Agenda, much?
They are always welcome in USA.
Islam is destructive of all cultures into which it intrudes. Assimilation of Islam is essentially impossible in a Western culture.
Some areas in Europe seem to be entirely different countries. In France, for example, the Middle Eastern immigrants have made the area they live exactly like where they came from. It's no longer resembles 'France'.
You on the bandwagon with that cartoonist?
Turks in Germany will be offended by the author's claim they are "Arabic."
Briefly looking through her comments in German, it seems to me she's addressing the fact that many muslims don't strive to learn German and that they have to follow German law, regardless if it is based on a culture they don't identify with.
That's the point of her multicultural statement. It's not going to work here. Basically, when in Rome...
There is another extreme. Where I live, anyways, the eastern Europeans (Russians & Poles, mostly) all try to speak German. I even heard an eastern European mother alone with her child in the store speaking to him in German the other day.
Germans will accept those of islamist heritage. Merkel used the high profile example of Turkish descent Oezil from the national soccer team, who has accepted the German environment and strove to assimilate.
Not speaking German, which means your not going to be employed and on welfare, and using sharia as an excuse for criminality are what is really pissing people off, IMHO.
Merkel simply addressed that.
It isn't surprising that people who believe in and love Western civilization would tire of people who are intent on destroying what we have. Especially when those seeking our destruction have done little in the history of their philosophy but bring poverty, oppression, and brutality from their religious tyranny. Why would we want what Muslims have, and why should we sit back and watch them destroy what we have? Islam is evil.
Hey what a novel idea! According to Pitts and all the the mutitcults White Westerners have no right to exist. Only if we allow for invasion and the destruction of our cultures is it all good. GFY Pitts!
Multiculturalism is a failure. I'm glad Germany has recognized this. I hope we do, too.
Not all of us share that view.
What do we know that Merkel doesn't?
Leonard Pitts is an absolute Liberal POS. F him. Merkel is right. The same could be said for those who refuse to assimilate in this country. They need to go back from where they came from.
This is the typical tongue lashing of a coward.
Blame the Germans for the failure of islam?
No, they were welcome, given jobs, housing & a society of tolerance that asked them to assimilate into the fabric of Germany. That's all.
Instead, the parasites built a mound of destruction within the foundation of Germany, eating everything it could consume until it came out from the walls demanding more from those intolerant Germans.
islam has proven throughout time that it is a destroyer of worlds & now it's inside the Western World.
DDT is the order of the day to save tomorrow.
That is some seriously racist political cartooning there.
Danziger also missed the polls where over 80% of current Germans now refuse to be bashed in the head with the shame hammer over the actions of their grand and great grand parents.
In the end... fools like Danziger make it easier for all Germans to laugh off any opinions of the US East Coast elites...
I hope they have better luck with the Muzzies than we have with our illegals here.
If all the German women look like this, I think I'll move over there and displace a Muzzie!
If the liberals can't shove this bs down the German's throats then they are about to get the biggest ass kicking they've ever received across the Western world.
I don't have that much of a problems with Muslims moving into the West as long as they understand some things will be frowned on and they will have to assimilate and their children might want to move away from their parents culture.
Also Anti-Semitism even with the actions of that retard Soros is better dead and buried.Coming into Germany and beating up Jews,just because of Israel,isn't going to endear Muslims to anyone.

With an eye toward the future beyond 2014, the Portland Timbers picked a speedy attacker, a versatile defender and a midfielder in Thursday's MLS SuperDraft.
The Timbers first pick was No. 17 overall. They selected Schillo Tshuma, a forward and attacking midfielder who is known for his speed and creativity. He is a Generation Adidas player, meaning his salary will not count against the Timbers 2014 salary cap.
The Timbers were surprised Tshuma was available at pick No. 17. Tshuma was one of four Generation Adidas players available for this draft. Generation Adidas contracts with MLS are offered to select college underclassmen who give up their remaining eligibility, but in addition to their salary receive scholarship money to complete their degree.
"He was one of the best players in college over the last several years," said Timbers coach Caleb Porter "It was a no-brainer, because he fits first and foremost the way we play."
A native of Zimbabwe who went to high school in Virginia, Tshuma had 16 goals and three assists in 49 games over two seasons at Maryland. Maryland advanced to the national semifinals in 2012 and lost in the national championship match in 2013.
Tshuma, 21, played alongside national college player of the year Patrick Mullins, who went to New England with the 11th pick.
The Timbers had two picks in the second round. With the 26th overall pick, Portland chose Washington Huskies central defender Taylor Peay. The 6-foot-2 Peay was a four-year contributor on defense for the Huskies and a first-team all Pac-12 defender after helping Washington to the 2013 conference title.
It is the second year in a row the Timbers drafted a Huskies defender. A concussion ended the rookie season for 2013 draft pick Dylan Tucker-Gangnes, who was released after the season.
With their third pick, No. 37 overall, the Timbers chose Aaron Long, a midfielder from Cal-Riverside who did not participate in the MLS scouting combine. A four-year starter at Riverside, Long finished with 13 goals and five assists in 71 games for the Highlanders. Long played three seasons with FC Tucson in the Premier Development League.
"We feel like we have a very experienced team, a lot of depth," Porter said. "So we were looking for players that we could bring along and players who fit the way we play and we got that in all three."
Two members of the Timbers 2013 under-23 PDL squad were drafted on Thursday. Defender Eric Miller from Creighton University went fifth overall to Montreal. Forward Mark Sherrod out of Memphis went 35th overall to Houston, four picks before the Timbers third pick of the day.
The SuperDraft is a chance for MLS clubs to select available college players and some young international players. The third and fourth rounds will be held on Jan. 21. The Timbers hold three more picks, including the first pick of the third round.
As a Generation Adidas player, Tshuma is almost certain to make Portland's roster this season. The others will be competing for a roster spot when training camp opens in late January.
"I'm looking forward to working with these players and having the opportunity to develop them, as this is a very important part of our club mission and to our succession planning," Porter said.

As Mike roamed the academy, coming around the dorms and stopping at his own for a while, he heard someone else walking by. Eager to just battle as obviously classes are not in session, he rushes to where the guy is. As soon as he sees him, roaming around the Suicune Dorm, he screams "You!!! You look tough, and I'm itchin to battle, so let's just do this!" Mike regains his composure just as the Adrian Steele turns toward him.

Between its two weekends, CAAMFest adheres to a civilized program of evening screenings that begin at 6 pm or later and encourage you to see one or two movies an evening -- civilized, except for the fact that driving over the bridge from the East Bay in order to arrive in Japantown by showtime required an hour. I planned to leave earlier in order to savor a bowl of freshly-made noodles at the delightful Suzu Noodle House right next door to the Kabuki, as well as cut down on the actual drive time, but that never happened. I was lucky enough to grab a package of gyoza from the takeout area of the excellent Nijiya Market, halfway in-between the Kabuki and the New People Cinema.
And I needed it for Monday's first film, Ang Lee's 1994 "Eat Drink Man Woman," charmingly introduced by Ted Hope -- erstwhile Executive Director of the San Francisco Film Society, current CEO of Fandor and producer of many Ang Lee movies, including "Pushing Hands," "The Wedding Banquet," and "The Ice Storm." Hope said that when he first saw Lee's short films at NYU, he thought that he was Italian, and that "Ang Lee" was his street graffiti name, a riff on "angle." When he and James Schamus started their production company, Good Machine, Lee's agent continually blew them off, saying "You're just low-budget producers, he's due for bigger things." But Lee showed up in their offices and said "If I don't make a film soon, I'll probably die." Lee is "one of the most thoughtful directors I've ever encountered." He "has an incredibly unique gift to understand the emotional effect of camera placement and focal length." Hope said that if you want to tell a story that's universal, get incredibly specific. Ang Lee, he continued, gave him his biggest compliment, which makes him feel two inches taller: when asked whether he was an American or Chinese director, he said "No, I'm a Ted Hope-trained director."
About "Eat Drink Man Woman," Hope said that Martha Stewart told him that it helped her plan her kitchen, and Momofuku's David Chang cooks multi-course meals based on it. Also, he noted, look out for his wife Vanessa Hope's Chinese-American documentary, "All Eyes and Ears," coming out next year.
It didn't feel like twenty years since I'd seen "Eat Drink Man Woman." And it probably wasn't; I'd probably caught it once during those years. It was almost as enjoyable as it was on first viewing, and just as hunger-inducing, even when the joke -- that the chef cooking these elaborate and exquisite-looking dishes has lost his sense of taste -- is revealed. "Eat Drink Man Woman" has to appear on any list of food movies.
At its end I rushed down the street and just made the opening credits of Rithy Panh's Oscar-nominated (Best Foreign Language Film) "The Missing Picture," which had won the Un Certain Regard award at last year's Cannes Film Festival. Even without reading reviews, I knew that it was about the horrible atrocities perpetrated in Cambodia by the Khmer Rouge between 1975 and 1979, re-enacted for Panh's camera by doll-sized clay figurines. It was powerful and disturbing. I learned, afterwards, that an English-narrated version had also made the festival rounds. I felt lucky that I'd heard the French narration of the film, especially because Panh now lives and teaches in Paris (where he went to film school).
On Tuesday I returned to the 1925-vintage Great Star Theater in Chinatown, where I enjoyed a perfect double bill: the extraordinarily interesting "Golden Gate Girls," 2013, directed by Louisa Wei, about Esther Eng, the first Chinese-American woman director in both California and in China, whose filmography encompassed 11 Cantonese-language features before she decamped for NY and a life as a celebrity restaurateur; followed by the Technicolor-drenched 1947 "White Powder and Neon Lights," part of the rediscovered collection of films of the San Francisco-based Grandview.
Both films had almost-unbelievable origin stories. For "Golden Gate Girls," Louisa Wei's point-of-entry was a box of 600 family photos of Esther Eng, mysteriously discovered in 2009 in a dumpster described alternately as "near SFO" or "in Colma," which (further conundrum) turns out to be Esther Eng's final resting place, since 1970. A generous collector, James Wong allowed Wei to scan all of the photos before he donated them to the Hong Kong Film Archive. In the documentary, Wei traverses the globe, finding Eng's surviving sister Sally -- among others willing to recall Eng for her camera -- as well as lots of bi-continental press about this pioneering woman filmmaker (compared with Hollywood's Dorothy Arzner) and intriguing bits and pieces of Eng's films. Eng was a charismatic out lesbian who had no qualms about dressing in mannish (and becoming) trousers, and continued to exercise her charms in her last years as a well-known restaurant owner who catered to a showbiz clientele in New York's Chinatown.
"White Powder and Neon Lights" was fortuitously discovered in a cache of films that local archivists knew were stored in the basement of an Oakland Chinese restaurant, the Golden Bowl, when phone calls in January 1999 suggested that reels of film were resting in a dumpster outside the restaurant. Stephen Gong, Executive Director of CAAM, was then working at the Pacific Film Archive and called two friends, who drove over with a dolly and pulled the films out. Without actually knowing what the films were, they gave them to the Hong Kong Film Archive. It took a decade to determine they were productions of the Grandview Film Company, a legendary Cantonese studio begun by Joseph Sunn Jue in San Francisco in 1933, continued in Hong Kong in 1939, and then re-established in San Francisco for the duration of WWII.
The title, "White Powder and Neon Lights," refers to its Chinese opera milieu in San Francisco. A fabulous star, Miss Ha, is imported, and she falls for the blandishments of a rich local, who encourages her to carouse at nightclubs and causes her art to suffer. The acting is quite good, the sets and costumes lush and bright. I was especially taken by one scene when Miss Ha shows up in matching, intense red coat, hat, and patent-leather purse to a red-decorated living room reminiscent of Diana Vreeland's Billy-Baldwin-decorated-"garden in hell" -- and the occasional glimpses of 40s SF shot in Technicolor are delightful indeed. It was especially powerful to watch the film in an old Chinese opera house in Chinatown, with two of Sunn Jue's daughters in the audience.

I've been eyeing this blouse for awhile but wasn't on the top of my to-buy list until I saw one fashion blogger wore it. That's the only time I told myself I'm going to get me that blouse. The blouse is actually green and not so much of the turquoise shade, if it would have been the latter I would look better. But then again, I still like it. I don't have any ombre piece of clothing until now.The chiffon cloth used for this top is very very sheer so I had to wear a cami top underneath it every time I'm wearing it. But the quality is very good and it doesn't look cheap at all. I haven't seen anything similar in any clothing store or bazaars around the metro so I know what I have is something unique. I also don't have that much green-colored items in my wardrobe and this is a great addition. It's true to size too!

Missoni is a symbol of Italian luxury in itself: the highest quality craftsmanship, an inherent sense of glamour and that iconic zigzag.
Missoni was founded in the 1950s by Ottavio Missoni and his wife Rosita. Having quickly accrued success and fame with signature crochet knits, the brand has continued as a family affair ever since. At the helm for many seasons now, Angela Missoni – granddaughter of Ottavio – repeatedly refreshes the Missoni look, ever contemporary and majorly covetable.
Missoni Spring/Summer 2016 is a return to the house's classic signatures, freshened up just a touch for the new season. The look is equal parts rich and light, perfect for a summery outfit that recalls balmy nights in the Bel Paese. We love the latest reincarnations of the still-to-die-for stripes, which are fabulously flattering and elegantly opulent. The floaty gilets and long skirts will prove immaculate options for a certain laid-back luxe.

Well pump / water pump protection devices & switches
Well pump or water pump protection switches & controls:
What can we install to protect a water pump from damage if the well runs out of water? How do we protect the well pump from damage due to pump short on-off cycling? How can we protect the well pump and its circuit from electrical overloads or lightning damage?
This article describes all of the devices to protect water pumps from damage from continuous running, short cycling, overloading, no well water, low yield wells, power surges, or lightning strikes.
Green links show where you are. © Copyright 2015 InspectApedia.com, All Rights Reserved.
Watch out: A water pump or "well pump" can be damaged by conditions that cause the pump to run continuously, particularly if the pump is running "dry" - without water passing through its mechanical parts. The result can be the need for a costly repair or for pump and control replacements.
[Click to enlarge any image]
Worse, a more powerful pump, especially a submersible pump that fails to turn off when it should may also pump water at high enough pressure to burst pipes, flood a building, or injure a bystander - dangers we discuss separately
at WATER PRESSURE TOO HIGH: DANGERS
Well pumps can also be damaged by other conditions such as low voltage, lightning strikes, entry of debris in the well water, or corrosive water.
Generally when readers ask what to do about a pump that won't shut off we suggest that they take the following steps
(May 31, 2011) Rico Zambrano said:
My pump keeps running and wont shot off, I have good water pressure.
(Apr 25, 2012) Ernie Parsons said:
I live in the North (Nunavut) and our water is supplied by truck and held in a 700 gal. tank. Sometimes when it storms and the trucks fall behind schedule and we run out of water. The problem is when this happens the pump continues to run and if we don't catch it quickly it heats up and ruins the impeller centre or the bearing. My question: is there a shut off I can install on the pump or water line that will shut the pump off when the tank is empty.
If your water pump keeps on running and won't shut off,
1. TURN IT OFF manually so you don't burn up the pump motor.
2. Then diagnose the trouble, starting at
Yes there are more sophisticated water pump controls with sensors that can shut off the pump it it's pumping air. Typically these work by monitoring the current draw of the pump, the pump motor temperature, or actual water flow.
There are also water pick-up "tailpiece" fittings intended for use in a well that might work in your tank that will recycle water through a pump to prevent its burn-up when water runs too low at the source.
The company's description of their PumpTec controller includes:
Pumptec is a microcomputer based pump protection device that continuously monitors motor load and power line conditions to provide protection against dry well conditions, waterlogged tanks, and abnormal line voltage conditions. Indicator lights provide complete system status, which can be easily viewed without removing the cover.
interrupts power to the motor whenever
the motor load drops below a preset
level or the load drops quickly.
Pumptec is optimized to work with
Franklin 2- & 3-wire single phase motors
from 1/3 to 1.5 HP. An underload (dry
well) adjustment is provided to address
unusual situations.
The PumpTec controller uses three indicator lights to indicate power, electrical load, and voltage levels. An "underload" indication can indicate that the well is dry while an "overload" indication typically means that there is a problem with the pump motor, causing it to draw excessive current.
See WATER PUMP RELAY SWITCH for details about these and similar pump relay controllers.

My water system consist of a submersible pump with pressure tanks. The pump is about 15 years old but the tank and control are just over 1 year old. The systems works fine most of the time except when we happen to create a large water demand - shower, dish washing and flushing the toilet at at once. IN that instance the control trip off and we loose all water pressure in the house. We then have to go to the control and reset the pump by using the small lever on the side of the control. Could use trouble shooting advice.
This question and reply were originally posted at NO WATER PRESSURE DIAGNOSTIC FAQs
From what you describe most likely the control is working properly, protecting the pump from damage by shutting the system down when your well is running out of water - when the demand exceeds the well flow rate. When you wait a time for well to recover the pump is then OK. Some pump pressure control switches require manual reset.
More explanation is in the article above.
25 Feb 2015 JD said:
My well pump was replaced 15 months ago and burned out last week. The installer thought the problem was due to iron in the water clogging the check valves. Besides the check valve that comes in the pump there is a gate type check valve and an additional spring check valve above the pump. There is also a 6 GPM reducer in addition to the 3 check valves. Does this seem excessive?
This question was originally posted in the CHECK VALVES, WATER SUPPLY
If your installer can show you a clogged check valve s/he'd be on reasonable ground, as if a pump can't push water into the pressure tank to satisfy the pressure control switch it'd keep running and risk burnout.
A check valve installed backwards or one that is stuck shut can also burn up a pump.
Flow reducers have a different purpose: to slow the flow rate out of the well in an effort to avoid burning up a pump in a well that has a slow recovery or flow rate into the well bore. The presence of that device on your system makes me suspect that the root problem is poor well flow rate; if the pump gets ahead of the flow rate into the well bore it can indeed burn up unless it's protected.
InspectApedia has more advice about well pump protection devices in the article above.

Cookbook Review & Recipe from Cooking My Way Back Home by Mitchell Rosenthal
Unusual Ingredient: The Fried Chicken Mushroom
It seems like this is a good year for mushrooms, at least in Northern California. In Berkeley, you can find heaps of delicious looking wild mushrooms at fairly reasonable prices, especially chanterelles, which come in many colors (white, yellow, black.) But what caught my eye recently is the oddly named Fried Chicken Mushroom. Is it true? Does it really taste like fried chicken? At $8.99 a pound, I picked up a small handful for around $2, and took them back to my kitchen to find out.

From Ocean to Box: How Sea Salt Is Harvested
Producer Tour
If you've ever flown into or out of the San Francisco airport, you have probably looked out the window and wondered about those weird red ponds scattered along the edge of the Bay. Wonder no more: they're sea salt harvesting ponds!
I was recently invited along on Diamond Crystal Salt's annual sea salt harvest right here in the San Francisco Bay. Let me tell you, it was a fascinating trip from Bay to box. Oh, and why the startling red color in those ponds? You'll never guess.

So simple, yet at the same time sophisticated and, well, pretty sexy, too.

Do you know where the apple you are biting into comes from? Is it sprayed with pesticides? Does it come from a box labeled "organically grown," and are you willing to pay a premium for it?
Chef Brian from Trellis, a restaurant in Kirkland, WA, knows exactly where the bulk of his ingredients come from. Why? Because he grows most of it himself. He planted and tends to a 10-acre farm, a place where farming and cooking practices seamlessly intertwine. Cooking through the seasons, cooking with what's at hand — Brian can inspire us home cooks in all these areas.
