Zinn & MacPeak 57 I ABSTRACT Preparing .an antacid product by specifically associating aluminum hydroxide and basic Mg carbonate pentahydrate.
7 Claims, 1 Drawing Figure e0 mm.
1 METHOD OF PREPARING A NOVEL ANTAClD PHARMACEUTICAL PRODUCT The present ,invention relates to pharmaceuticals therapeutically active in treating gastric hyperacidity,
gastroduodenitis and peptic ulcer. These substances formthe so-called antacid group.
. It is known that an ideal antacid should meet the following three requirements at least:
hydroxide exhibits a fairly good neutralizing power, but
its buffering power is effective at extremely low pH levels (between 1 and '2); moreover, it gives rise to a significant secretory rebound. The same considerations apply, though with certain variants, to kaolin which is d. filtering the dispersion obtained'in step (c);
e. removing from the filtering residue'by washing with water most of theammonium sulphate entrapped therein as byproduct of step (b);
f. replacing by acetone 60 percent at least by weight of the water impregnating the washed residue;
g. drying the acetone-impregnated residue at a temperature of 6080C till a solid particulate product conteining less than 1 percent by weight of imbibition water is obtained; I
h. mechanically reducing the product particles to a size not exceeding microns.
The product resulting from the above process essentially consists of amorphous aluminum hydroxide supv out heretofore that the aluminum hydroxide shell is practically deprived of neutralizing and buffering activity and induces a high secretory rebound. Magnesium oxide is of a rather high neutralizing capacity but gives rise to a high secretory rebound and its buffering power is effective at substantially alkaline pH levels (between 8 and9). Sodium bicarbonate is ofa moderate neutral-- an excessive pH level (between 6 and 7) such as to ag-,
gravate digestive derangements (rebound, pepsinic deactivation, etc.) previously referred to.
lt has not been found that the aboverecited requirements 1., 2., and 3., can be met to a highly satisfactory extend by a novel product which results from a special method of preparation. More particularly, it has been found that by specifically associating aluminum hydroxide and basic Mg carbonate pentahydrate surprising results are obtained which could not be anticipated from the properties of either constituent or a mixture of the latter.
The process according to the invention is characterized by the operational steps-of:
a. dissolving in water aluminum sulphate hydrate Al (SO.,) l8H O in a proportion of l,400-4,000 ml water per mole sulphate; b. adding to' the resulting solution while stirring,
aqueous ammonia of a 27-30 percent concentration by weight, at a pouring rate of 0100-0160 moles/min per mole dissolved sulphate, till a final pH of9.75-9.81 is obtained, thereby uniformly dispersing the aluminum hydroxide Al(OH) in jelly form; c. uniformly dispersing in said dispersion basic magnesium carbonate pentahydrate (MgCO M'g(OH) .5H O in particles not exceeding 50 mi crons in size, in a quantity corresponding to 1.0
1.2 atoms Mg per atom Al present in the disper I room temperature (1825C). The proportion of water is criticalfor the purposes of the following steps of the process, more particularly step (c). With water quantities below 1,400 ml per mole sulphatethe dispersion'obtained in step (b) is so thick that a uniform dispersion of thebasic Mg carbonate'at step.(c) is practically impossible; conversely, with water quantities exceeding 4,000 ml per mole sulphate'the basic Mg carbonate particles added at step (c) easily tend to settle so'that, though uniform dispersion of the carbonate The step is carried out while stirring'in order to uniformly disperse in the aqueous medium the gelatinous hydroxide particles being formed. The pouring rate affects the particle size and should, preferably be of from 0.115 to 0.l50 moles/min/mole sulphate, the optimum rate being 0.130 0.135 moles/min/mole sulphate. The final pH is preferably 9.79 to 9.81. This results in a substantially thorough Al precipitation as hydroxide. At more alkaline pH values the hydroxide tends to dissolve. Should the above mentioned fmal pH value be accidentally exceeded, this can be remedied by correcting the effective pH by meansof sulphuric acid. The'temperat'ure at step (b) preferably amounts to 20 to 25C; under these conditions, the rate of reaction is optimum and no ammonia losses by evaporation are to be feared. On completion of pouring of ammonia stirring is recommended during further ten minutes.
Step (c); while stirringthe dispersion from step (b), the basic Mg carbonate in the .form of crystalline. powder is slowly poured thereinto. For the sake of an efficient dispersion of the carbonate the pouring rate should be of from 0.008 to 0.013 moles/min per mole sulphate employed at step (a). The preferred rate is 0.009 to 0.012 moles/min/mole sulphate. The basic Mg carbon ate pentahydrate' is hardly soluble in the dispersion from step (b): at any rate, step (c) shall preferably be carried out at a reasonably low temperature, such as 2023C. Preferably, the carbonate particles are below 15 microns in size, the ideal size being of 5 to microns. The ideal size" particles mentioned above not only thoroughly disperse in the aluminum from step (b), but also hardly tend to settle so that once uniformity in dispersion is reached, it is easily maintained also during the following steps of the process.
Step (d): In commercial practice filtering on a filterpress is recommended; in laboratory practice filtering is carried out by suction. The filtrate consists of an aqueous solution of ammonium sulphate formed as byproduct at step (b). The solid residue shall preferably be in the form of a coherent moist cake.
Step (e): At this step a preponderant proportion of the ammonium sulphate trapped in the above-mentioned cake is removed. To this end the cake is preferably distempered with a small volume of water, preferably not exceeding the volume employed at step (a). A- creamy slurry should be obtained. After filtering, preferably on a filterpress or in vacuum, the treatment with water can be repeated once or several times; it will be seen that, by so doing, the swelling degree of the precipitate gradually decreases. It is advisable to pursue washing till the sulphate ions are substantially thoroughly removed.-
The ,cake from the final filtering typically contains 7085 percent by weight moisture and is markedly micro-granular.
Step (f): This is an extremely. important step. First of all, as will be more clearly seen from the results of the specific examples given hereafter, the choice of'acetone rather than other volatile organic, more or less water-miscible solvents (such as mentanol, ethanol or isopropyl ether) is critical. It is believed that the substantial replacement of the water impregnating the cake by this solvent exerts a regulating effect on the physical.
processes occurring during gelling of the aluminum hydroxide at the next drying step (g). More particularly, it is believed that, when 60 percent at least water impregnating the cake has been replaced by acetone, the contraction in volume of aluminum hydroxide during drying is subdivided into infinitesimal partial contractions of infinitesimal partial volumes of the hydroxide, with the inherent formation of extremely small pores so that each grain of (crystalline) basic magnesium carbonate is enrobed by a sponge of Al(OH);. At this step also the distempering technique is advantageously employed. For example, by distempering the cake from step (e) in a quantity of acetone amounting to 2-3 times only the weight ofthe impregnating water, and by moderately stirring to equilibrium (that is, till the liquid phase no longer exhibits a tendency towards depletion in acetone), the certainty is acquired that the solid particles contain less than 40 percent of the water quantity previously impregnating the said particles. Generally, this state of equilibrium is reached with a substantial approximation within 30 minutes. The slurry is thereafter filtered, preferably on a filterpress or centrifuge. If desired, the distempering and filtering treatment can be repeated; however, there is no advantage to repeat this treatment beyond the point at which the liquid impregnating the final cake contains about 10 percent only by weight of water. On practising the invention, it will be seen that the weight of this cake will be approximately three times less the weight of the cake from step (e).
Step (g): The cake from the preceding step (f) is easy to crumble as can then be dried without particular complication, the result being a particulate product. The drying temperature is a highly important factor. The preferred range'is 65-75C; the optimal value is 2C. Drying is considered to be complicated when the moisture content has sunk below 1 percent by weight, preferably below 0.5 percent by weight. it is understood that the term moisture content does not include the crystallization water of the basic magnesium carbonate; in other words drying shall remove the imbibition water but not the crystallization water. For the sake of a uniform result, the cake from step (f) is conveniently spread to a thin layer in accordance with known concepts. Step (h); This step shall bring the grain size of the prod uct to suitable values for administration to the patient- Preferably, these values shall be of 5 to 10 microns. This is a further reason why the size of the basic Mg carbonate particles employed at step (c) shall advantageously be within the same range. Though various known apparatus can be employed for reducing the size of the product particles to the above-mentioned values, the socalled micronizers are preferably recommended, in which the solid particles disintegrate by mutual collision in a high-speed gas stream in a suitably shaped chamber. By operating under these preferred conditions, the end product essentially comprises crystalline cores of basic Mg carbonate totally or almost totally enrobed by a porous alumina layer.
EXAMPLE 1 555 g (1 mole) A1 (SO,) .l8H 'O are dissolved in 1,600 ml water at room temperature-while stirring. On completion of dissolution ammonia at 26 Be is drippped into the solution at a rate of 0, 1 33 moles/minute; the total consumption is 6 moles (750 g) in 45 minutes. During dripping the liquid mass is moderately stirred (stirrer speed: rev/min). The final pH is 9.80. The temperature is 20C. Stirring is pursued during further 15 minutes, whereafter g (0,4 moles) (MgCO .Mg(OH) .5H O in particles below 15 microns are slowly poured while further stirring. The pouring speed is 0.01 moles/min 4.86 g/min. Pouring is completed after 40 minutes. Stirring is pursued during 20 further minutes, followed by filtering in vaccum. The precipitate is distempered with 1,500 ml water and filtered in vacuum; this treatment is repeated once more. The resulting filter cake contains 1.054 g imbibition water. The cake is then distempered with 2,500 g acetone at 21C, the resulting slurry being stirred during 30 minutes and filtered in vacuum. On evaporation of the acetone from the filtrate the residue is 994 g water, which implies that almost 90 percent out of the 1,054 g imbibition water .have been displaced. At this stage the liquid imbibing the cake comprises 29 percent water and 71 percent acetone. The cake is broken and dried in an oven at 70C during 15 hours. The powdery product (257 g) is finally micronized to 5l0 micron size.

The neutralizing power is represented by'the quantity of N/10 hydrochloric acid (expressed in mEq 11*) required for bringing to pH'= 3.5 a solution of dispersion of 1 g antacid in 100 ml water.
however, water is TABLE 1 Antacid i Neutralizing power expressed in mEq H Sodium bicarbonate Magnesium oxide Basic magnesium carbonate Aluminum hydroxide Kaolin The table 'shows that, with the exception of MgO (which however is objectional in that it brings the gastric juice toan alkaline pH) CR.333 exhibits the highcst neutralizing power for hydrogen ions.
1n order to determine the buffering power the test of Holbert, Noble and Grote J. Am. Pharm. Assoc. 36, 149(1947) and 37,292 (1948) modified by Robert S. Murphey J. Am. Pharm. Assoc. 41, 361 (1952). was employed. This test makes use of the so-called artificial stomach essentially comprising aglass ampoule 250 ml in volume, of cylindrical shape, rotated at a constant speed of 4 rev/min. The ampoule is chargedwith 180 ml artificial gastric juice composed along the following formula: I
concentrated HCl (density 1.19) 7 ml Pepsin (dilution 123000) 3.2 g. NaCl 2 g H O to make 1.8g of the antacid being tested is introdu'cedinto this artificial gastric juice. The test is carried out over minutes. At intervals of 10 minutes18 ml liquid are withdrawn and as many ml fresh gastric juice are introduced. Directly thereafter the pH value of the liquid in the ampoule is measured. The sequence of the pH values-determined as above gives a picture of the neutraliz'ing and buffer characteristics of the substance being tested. The following Table -2 shows the buffering power of the substances obtained in 1-16.

TABLE 3' Time (minutes) CR.333 Sodium bicarbonate Magnesium Kaolin Aluminum Basic Magnesium Oxide hydroxide carbonate over shows that the products of Examples 2-5 in which the Mg/Al atom ratio is beyond the range of the invention, behave more or less like the product ofExample 6 (a mere mixtureof the two constituents) producing a high initial pH value (over 5) which sinks below 3 within 50-70 minutes. Theproducts of Examples 7-10,
obtained with pH values beyond the limits claimed therein, provide initial acid levels whichare satisfactory enough, but maintain them during a short time only (40-70 minutes). The same remark applies to the product of Example 11, which has been obtained without substituting acetone for water. The product of Example 12 obtained by drying at 100C provides a high pH (5.4-5.1) over the first 30 minutes. which however sinks below 3.0 during the following 30 minutes. The
product of Example 13, dried at 50C only, already initially provides a Ph value below 4. its buffering power at this level lasting 40 minutes only. The products of Examples 14 and 16, obtained by displacing water by ethanol and methanol. respectively.equal CR.333 during the first 60-70 minutes only; the product of Example 15 obtained by displacing water by isopropyl ether behaves still worse.
Comparison of CR.333 and certain particularly sig- I nificant products tabulated in Table 2 becomes more striking on considering the accompanying drawing. which is a diagram showing the pH values as functions of time. The favourable progress of the curve relating to CR.333 is evident.
Tables 2 and 3 clearly show the CR.333 stabilizes gastric pH during a long time between about 3.5 and about 4.5. these values reducing hyperacidity but not deactivating the pepsinic digestive processes. None of the further substances considered herein provide this effect.
As to the secretory rebound, systematic testswere carried out by the double antral and stomach body pouch (R.A. Gregory Secretory Mechanisms of the Gastro-lntestinal Tract page 38 Edward Arnold Publishers Ltd., London). Without going into every detail, the above method broadly consists in forming in the stomach ofa dog two pouches, namely an antral pouch and a stomach bottom pouch, which do not communicate with each other. Given quantities of the substance to be tested are introduced into the antral pouch. sensitive to stimuli. while the gastric juice is collected from the pouch having a secretory attitude. the emission of the said juice having been caused by the substance being tested. lnthe present case. CR.333 and the cornparative substances were introduced in the form of an aqueous suspension, in the standard quantity of 2g in 20 ml water. At 15 minutes intervals (during three hours in all) the substance was removed from the respective pouch and replaced by an identicalquantity of fresh substance in order to make the stimulus more continuous. Evaluation of the effects was made by measuring the quantity and pH of the gastric juice issuing from the other pouch. The results are given in the fol lowing Table 4.

The numerical data given in Table 4 express the mEqH secreted at the 15 minutes intervals tabulated in the second column.

It will be further seen from Table 4 that the values given in the CR.333 column strikingly differ from those distinguishing aluminum hydroxide and basic magnesium carbonate.
The advantages of CR.333 previouslyset out were further confirmed by a clinical testson 52 gastroduodenopatic subjects, 45 our of whom were treated withtablets containing 500 out mg CR.333 while 7 were treated with a suspension containing 6 g CR.333 in 100 ml.

Pyrosis, intensity of spontaneous pain, intensity of stimulated pain, pain rhythm, vomit, nausea and neuropsychial disturbances, which are the typical symptoms of gastroduodenopathies, were taken as parameters.

I've tried a ring sling and a front buckle soft structured carrier, and she doesn't like either of those. I think the best part about this wrap is that you actually tie the baby onto you. I've had other wraps that I didn't care for, but I didn't know you could actually tie the baby on, which gives you the most comfortable way to carry. This wrap came with an awesome instruction manual with huge color photos of the steps you need for each carry. I have a very bad back, and this wrap is comfortable for 1.5 hours and longer. For me, that's amazing. It does take a little time, for me 3 minutes or so, to make sure I've tied it on well and spread out the fabric across my back as much as possible. There was a bit of a learning curve but now it seems very easy to do. Practice makes perfect!
I have a gauze wrap that I bought on Etsy, which ripped because I think it just couldn't handle my older child's weight. This wrap is very, very sturdy. I would have no problem carrying my 32lb toddler in it on my back and feeling safe. If you have a big baby (both of mine were and are 95th percentile or higher for weight and height), definitely go with a woven wrap. A stretchy wrap like the Moby won't work in the long run. This Storchenwiege wrap is super durable. Love it!
I'm 5'5" and 120 pounds, and the 4.1 meter length wrap is just right for kangaroo carry (my preferred newborn hold), with only a short tail of fabric at the end.
My wrap isn't well broken in yet, but that dies t seem to matter to me. It is easy to work with, comfortable and supportive. Now I'm thinking about getting another storch, this time in 3.6 meters, so I can do some shorter carries like hip carries.

Product Description:
April Wine: Myles Goodwyn, Steve Lang, Gary Moffet, Brian Greenway, Jerry Mercer.
As suggested by its title, Harder...Faster sees veteran Canadian rockers April Wine taking things up a notch with relentless slabs of hard rock in "I Like to Rock" and "Ladies Man." Also on hand is a memorable cool groover called "Say Hello," a curious cover of King Crimson's "21st Century Schizoid Man," and the dual personality of "Tonite," which alternates between quiet balladry and all-out riffing. Band leader Myles Goodwyn even relinquishes the spotlight in a rare show of democracy to second guitarist Brian Greenway on the impressive "Before the Dawn." Ultimately, this is a consistently strong album which sets the stage for what would be April Wine's best effort, the following year's The Nature of the Beast. ~ Eduardo Rivadavia

1. Background
[2] The Chandrayaan-1 spacecraft [Goswami and Annadurai, 2008] was inserted into a polar orbit around the Moon on 8 November 2008 and continued to make measurements for more than nine months, until 16 August 2009. One instrument onboard was the Moon Mineralogy Mapper (M3), a spectrometer, which measured the flux reflected and emitted from the lunar surface in the spectral region from about 0.406 to 2.991 μm (R. O. Green et al., The Moon Mineralogy Mapper (M3) imaging spectrometer for lunar science: Instrument, calibration, and on-orbit measurement performance, submitted to Journal of Geophysical Research, 2011). One important discovery reported from the M3 measurements is evidence of widespread OH and H2O in the lunar surface layer [Pieters et al., 2009]. In this present article we discuss the possible explanations for hydroxyl/water in the surface and explore the M3 observational evidence for the source. We focus here on solar wind-induced hydroxylation as at least one likely explanation for the global imprint and latitude dependence [McCord et al., 2009, 2010a, 2010b].
[3] Pieters et al. [2009] initially described the M3 observational evidence to that date, which consisted of absorption features in the Moon reflectance spectrum in the 2.8 to 3 μm spectral region, to the long-wavelength limit of the M3 coverage. This absorption was interpreted as indicating OH and H2O, and similar spectral features are commonly seen in spectra of outer Solar System objects. It was noted that this feature and the associated OH were not expected in the case of the Moon, as the surface is hot during the day and was determined to be very dry based upon study of lunar samples returned by the U.S. Apollo and USSR Lunar programs.
[4] The absorption was reported from the initial M3 measurements to be widely distributed and appeared strongest at cooler high latitudes and at several fresh feldspathic craters. However, thermal emission contaminates the reflected solar radiation in this spectral region for much of the Moon observed and complete removal of this effect is difficult or impossible with the M3 data. Some of these effects are discussed below. It also was only weakly correlated with the Lunar Prospector neutron spectrometer hydrogen abundances [Feldman et al., 1998, 2000, 2001; Lawrence et al., 2006; Pieters et al., 2009], suggesting probably a different source mechanism and possibly a surficial process that would not have been detected by the Lunar Prospector's observations. Further, it was suggested that this hydroxyl/water production process could feed to polar cold traps and thus might form a source of useful water.
[5] This finding was so unexpected that there was a strong but unsuccessful attempt by the M3 team to disprove it. Two sources of independent observations fortunately were available. The Cassini spacecraft carried the Visual and Infrared Mapping Spectrometer (VIMS) past the Moon on its way to Saturn in 1999. These earlier data were investigated and also show the OH/H2O absorptions [Clark, 2009]. The VIMS covered a spectral range further into the infrared, to about 5 μm (unsaturated range to 3.3 μm in this case), so that the full extent of the absorptions became more apparent and better defined, with OH/H2O amounts suggested to be in the range 10–1000 ppm. Furthermore, EPOXI, NASA's extended mission for the Deep Impact spacecraft, had been making numerous close approaches to the Earth-Moon system and was observing the Moon as a calibration source, particularly with its 1.05–4.8 μm spectrometer (useful to 4.5 μm in this case). Prompted by the M3 discovery, EPOXI observed the Moon on its June 2009 encounter. Again, the 3 μm lunar spectral signature was observed and confirmed [Sunshine et al., 2009]. These EPOXI observations were of the highest signal-to-noise ratio of the three observations and showed detailed spectral structure within the general absorption. They reported H2O concentrations of <0.5 wt % with more toward the north polar region. They suggested that hydration varied with temperature, rather than total dose of solar radiation, and they reported a lack of correlation with regolith composition. Interestingly, they also reported diurnal changes in hydration that were greater for mare basalts (∼70%) than for highlands (∼50%) and occurred entirely between local morning and evening, an effect that they suggested required a ready daytime source of water–group ions consistent with a solar wind origin. However, Clark [2009] offered an alternative explanation: that the change in absorption strength of the water and hydroxyl is a multiple reflection effect due to topography. At lower solar incidence angles, mountains and crater walls facing the sun reflect light onto more horizontal surfaces causing a "reflectance squared" effect that increases apparent absorption depths.
[6] These two additional observations strongly confirmed and extended the M3 data, so that there is little question that the spectral feature exists. The interpretation of OH mentioned above seems the obvious one and has not to date been seriously questioned. However, the presence of H2O is a little less certain. The 3 μm spectral feature in general is due to O-H stretch of hydroxyl groups and can exist without H2O. Spectral features diagnostic of H2O also exist in the 3 μm region (e.g., near 3.1 μm due to H-O-H bend mode [cf. Dyar et al., 2010, Table 2]) but they are combinations and overtones with strengths 30–100 times weaker, and can be identified only at very high signal-to-noise ratios, a challenge for the existing observations. Less well determined or understood are the dependences of the spectral features on lunar properties and the nature of the physical process(es) creating the molecular species.
[7] Prior to the M3 discovery, the Lunar Prospector's neutron spectrometer observations were interpreted to show that excess hydrogen is present in the lunar polar regions within about 0.5 m of the surface [Feldman et al., 1998, 2000, 2001]. This result was suggested as evidence that water might be cold trapped and stored for long time periods in permanently shadowed regions to several meters in depth and gardened to nearer the surface by impacts. Such a scenario has been suggested by several scientists over the history of lunar exploration [e.g., Urey, 1952; Watson et al., 1961]. Feldman et al. [1998, 2000, 2001], however, could not ascertain that the hydrogen was in the form of water or even hydroxyl, and therefore, the nature and source were not evident. The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter mission also carried a neutron detector, the Lunar Explorer Neutron Detector (LEND) [Mitrofanov et al., 2010a, 2010b]. Maps from LEND of the south polar region reveal an elongated depression of the epithermal neutron rates that indicates a maximum concentration of hydrogen [McClanahan et al., 2010]. This depression was already reported by the Lunar Prospector Neutron Spectrometer, and it was validated by a direct comparison with LEND results that show a good correlation that increases toward the pole where the confidence is higher (higher density of measurements). The Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite (LCROSS) experiment impacted the Centaur upper stage rocket into a shadowed part of a lunar polar crater in October 2009; Evidence of water ice and other volatile materials [Colaprete et al., 2010] were reported. If confirmed, this water ice may be at least part of the source for the excess hydrogen reported by Lunar Prospector.
[8] In this article, we investigate the behavior of the M3 3 μm region absorptions and discuss what these indicate about the sources for these OH and HOH observations, elaborating on previous discussions by McCord et al. [2009, 2010a, 2010b].

What Our Customers Say About Us
My salesperson Gene was excellent, patient, answered many of my questions. The finance manager was very good and respectful and pleasant to work with.
San Diego
Patrick was extremely patient and knowledgable. I was picky about color and he showed me several different ones in the color I wanted. He was very patient when I decided to go with my original choice (Sorry Patrick).
Tustin CA
Patrick Turner was patient for hours with us beyond measure as we tried to decide what move to make. He had the unusual combination of being professional and personable. After the papers were signed and the deal was "done", he went so far as to spend even more time with us on the electronic aspects of the car, and further explained what additional options were ... available with regard to apps on our smart phones. The day after the sale, he contacted us to make sure everything was fine. He is truly a fine member of the Volvo San Diego sales team.
Fallbrook, CA
So, I bought my Volvo S40 from SD Volvo in 2009. I have to say, I'm very impressed with the entire experience. Knock on wood, the car has been great, with no major issues. What's really nice is, for many type of issues that pop up, the sales and front desk people will actually come put the parts on the car for free. I'm very price conscious and I like the fact that ... for minor issues, someone will come do it for me for free. I almost never came back to SD Volvo because a few years ago, they were going to charge me an exorbitant fee for my brakes to be done. However, everyone deserves a second chance! I feel like they have brought their costs down to a more competitive pricing, which is great.I recently had a piece of the rubber weather guard come off the door and the gentlemen who helped me was really awesome (I think his name was Dave). He was prompt, knowledgeable and really cool. Also, the guy who mans the computer for the parts is funny and very helpful. I really hope they keep up the good work :)
San Diego
We had two salesmen work with us. Both were very knowledgeable about the vehicle, very professional, and very responsive to our inquiries. Very pleased with the salesmen who worked with us, as well as the subsequent work by the Service Dept on a couple of add-ons as well as one recall. Everyone was very professional, courteous and personable.
San Diego
I got my car today and I love it. The dealerships in Phoenix did not offer the interior combination or selection that you offered at San Diego Volvo. Great job on the selection, color combinations and very completive price.
Scottsdale, AZ
Bought a 2016 XC90 and couldn't be more pleased with the vehicle or the dealership. Great experience without any high pressure sales tactics. Met the service staff who also seemed friendly and competent. Highly recommend!
Claremont CA
Friday was our first experience with routine maintenence on our year old XC60. The service was great, but some of the perks, that I assumed that would come from buying a luxury car, were missing. First, no loaner car offered. When I owned an Infiniti, this was standard. I guess this is not the case at Volvo. Also, we were offered a complimentary car wash, but this ... would have been completed at the Chevron down the road. Hmmmm. Another thing that was unexpected. I don't think these things would of changed our mind when buying our car last year, but who knows.
San Diego
We just purchased a 2016 XC90, which we absolutely love. Our Sales Advisor, Grant, was wonderful to work with. He was friendly, helpful, professional, and informative. We were ultimately able to agree upon a purchase price that we could afford, and felt that the overall pricing at this dealership was very fair compared to others in the area - based on our extensive ... research. Additionally, their finance officer, Kyle, did an excellent job communicating our loan options and helping us obtain the car loan. We felt very comfortable with the staff at Volvo of San Diego, and also appreciated the Volvo Loyalty program discount we were offered. When we are ready to replace our other Volvo, we will consider buying another car from the nice people at this dealership.

It's not about "red" or "blue," but green.
That's what Rebekah Simon-Peter, author of "Green Church: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Rejoice!" would like to convey. "Green Church" is a wake up call and challenge for Christians of all stripes and persuasions to set aside their petty doctrinal differences in order to reclaim our original mandate: to care for creation.
Simon-Peter begins her biblically based book reminding Christians of our responsibility to serve as stewards of God's good earth. She reminds us of the Genesis story and God's charge to humanity to take care of this blessed place for us to enjoy and thrive in. In the Genesis story, humanity got out of control, chaos ensued and God sought to restore order by ridding the earth of humans with a great flood. But then, "God repented of de-creation in forty days." Simon-Peter asks, "Can we follow suit?"
But she pointedly asserts, "The Bible calls us to be stewards of creation, but most of us are content to be mere consumers."
The book is rife with a bevy of scientific data and statistics that suggest a bleak state of affairs for the earth. Among them: "All over the world, animal and plant species are disappearing at an unprecedented and alarming rate. This is not the Rapture; this is the largest mass extinction since the age of the dinosaurs. Biologists predict that fully half of all species on earth may be gone within the next 50 -100 years." And, "Scientists predict that if we continue fishing at the current rate, the planet will run out of seafood by 2048 … Bye-bye lobster dinners, frozen fish sticks, and jobs."
She states the unwelcome facts without being preachy or attacking. She admits to being part of the problem and has compassion for her fellow humans who are trying to live our busy lives in this modern, demanding world.
She wonders aloud what we're all wondering, "Is it too late for us to make a difference and learn to live together in fruitful harmony? Or can we find a way to live into our biblical call?"
"What has gone wrong? It seems that we who have been called to care for creation have become sinners against the creation."
What are we to do?
According to "Green Church," we need to "Repent, Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, and Rejoice!"
She remembers being an optimistic environmental studies major 25 years ago and thinking that "Someone will surely do something about this, before it's too late."
Since then, things have gone from bad to worse. Two years ago, Simon-Peter had an epiphany,
"That 'someone' is me. And you." …

Nutanix, the leading provider of next-generation datacenter infrastructure solutions, today announced a company-wide initiative to bring true web-scale simplicity and economics to enterprise IT teams underserved by VCE converged infrastructure. CIOs and datacenter architects have long recognized the need to scale their infrastructure on demand, and avoid expensive overprovisioning that prevents an IT cost model competitive with popular cloud providers. Many of these Global 2000 companies have turned to pre-cabled and pre-engineered systems in hopes of reducing complexity and lowering costs. Unfortunately, these same systems are constructed with legacy technologies, and lack the genuine IT innovation necessary to meet the scalability and economic challenges facing large enterprises in the cloud era.
Nutanix delivers radical improvement in IT simplicity, while enabling datacenter managers to build flexible, massively scalable private clouds one server at a time. Nutanix solutions incorporate advanced web-scale technologies and can replace Vblock installations running nearly any virtualized workload, including virtual desktops, Microsoft enterprise applications, databases and more – and deliver these services with 9x faster performance and 10x faster time to deployment. Unlike Vblock, Nutanix's web-scale IT platform runs on all popular virtualization hypervisors, including VMware vSphere™, Microsoft Hyper-V™ and open source KVM. It also enables customers of all sizes to standardize their infrastructure across both datacenter and branch office locations.
Customers Prefer Nutanix over VCE Vblock
Customers are gravitating to Nutanix to advance their converged infrastructure strategies, and Nutanix continues to win against large legacy IT vendors. For example, in just the last three months, Nutanix was chosen over VCE Vblock by:
- A top 3 global mining company that needed a simpler converged infrastructure for remote locations. Nutanix delivered a solution that consumed only two rack units (RU), compared with the smallest Vblock system that needed 24 RU;
- A 35,000 student public university that needed a flexible scale-out design for their central IT hub. The pay-as-you-grow capability from Nutanix proved superior compared to the static legacy infrastructure behind VCE;
- A large U.S. military branch that chose Nutanix to build a highly secure virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI); and,
- An APAC regional government body looking for a cost-effective VDI approach. Vblock was quickly dismissed after a short total cost of ownership (TCO) comparison against Nutanix.
Vblock-to-Nutanix Migration Service
To ease the transition to modern web-scale technologies, Nutanix's Global Service Organization (GSO), working in conjunction with Nutanix channel partners, is now offering its customers a Vblock-to-Nutanix Migration Service. This new offering is available worldwide and provides a planned, low-risk process to migrate all virtual workloads to Nutanix. The service includes a free detailed assessment of all virtual workloads in the Vblock environment and a multi-phase, step-by-step cutover plan. Additional GSO services are available to implement Nutanix clusters, and perform the actual application and workload migration, plus full training on the Nutanix-based infrastructure in order to streamline ongoing datacenter operations.
"The enterprise datacenter is at an inflection point as it tries to keep up with rapid advancements in technology," said Parmeet Chaddha, vice president, global services. "Some vendors have turned to duct taping legacy technologies in a 42U rack and selling it as next-generation converged infrastructure. Nutanix is committed to helping these IT professionals simplify their architecture to meet the management, scalability and economic challenges of the cloud era."
Trade-up Program
For organizations with expiring Vblock maintenance, Nutanix is offering a customized trade-up program to replace existing Vblocks with new Nutanix web-scale converged infrastructure. With this program, Nutanix solutions can be purchased cash-flow neutral, in some cases, at the cost of existing Vblock support and maintenance. Additionally, enterprises can dramatically reduce future operating expenses because Nutanix requires much less rack space, power and cooling requirements than Vblock, and because Nutanix support and services costs are a fraction of what Vblock customers typically pay annually.

Early adopters of IoT viewed it mainly as a different term for machine-to-machine connectivity or M2M. This is understandable since a prerequisite for any IoT solution is the ability to collect and aggregate device data, which is most often presented in a dashboard. The problem is that viewing data in a dashboard requires a human to interpret the results and take manual action, which doesn't scale to the needs of IoT.

2 flee Texas jail, 1 faces capital murder charge
Sheriff's deputies are searching nearby woods for Brian Allen Tucker and John Marlin King
Associated Press
SULPHUR SPRINGS, Texas — Two prisoners, including one awaiting trial on a capital murder charge, have broken out of an East Texas jail.
The Hopkins County Sheriff's Office says Brian Allen Tucker of Sulphur Springs and John Marlin King of Cumby escaped from the Hopkins County Jail on Tuesday morning.
Both fled through a recreation yard used by female inmates at the jail in Sulphur Springs, about 75 miles northeast of Dallas. The two inmates apparently took off their jail uniforms outside the fence.
Deputy Alvin Jordan says sheriff's deputies are searching nearby woods.
Tucker was being held on $1 million bond in the 2011 death of Bobby Riley of Mahoney. Riley was strangled in his home. King was being held on an evading arrest charge.
Local schools have been locked down.
