TULSA, Okla. — Home runs by Joey Migliaccio and Chris Williams helped lift the Oral Roberts to a 7-2 victory over McNeese State on Saturday.
Freshman Guillermo Trujillo (2-0) earned his second victory of the season out of the bullpen after he replaced Drew Bowen following a weather delay. Trujillo threw 31⁄3 innings with six hits and allowed one run to score, while Bowen finished three innings, gave up two hits and an earned run.
Kurt Giller replaced Trujillo in the top of the seventh and allowed one hit in the final 22⁄3 innings.
Reliever Tyler Parke (3-2) was charged with the loss after giving up four runs — three earned — on five hits in 21⁄3 innings of work.
Both Cowboys (21-27, 8-15 Southland) runs were solo home runs, one by Andrew Guillotte, who was 2-for-5, and Lucas Quary. Chayse Marion and Michael Sullivan had two hits apiece.
Migliaccio and Logan Domenico had two hits and two RBIs apiece, and Tyler Boss chipped in two hits for the Golden Eagles (21-27, 14-9).
The rubber game of the series begins at 1 p.m. today.
The Cowboys got on the board first on Guillote's lead-off homer in the first inning, his first of the season.
ORU tied the score with an unearned run in the third inning, when thunderstorms forced an 87-minute delay.
After both teams took the field to restart the game, Parke came in to relieve Blake Ware. With bases loaded and two outs, Parke was able to strike out the batter and get the Cowboys out of a jam.
McNeese regained the lead in the fourth inning on Quary's first homer of the season, over the center-field wall.
The Golden Eagles responded with two-run Migliaccio homer down the right-field line to take a 3-2 lead.
A two-run single by Domencio extended ORU's lead to a 5-2 the sixth inning. Williams' two-run home run in the seventh inning extended the lead 7-2.

text: I noticed this past week that saw palmetto is in bloom. It's a major nectar run here--but the blooms I saw had no honeybees on them. They had love bugs on them which I know leave a residue that bees will then avoid, but I wondered if others are finding it to be a big problem. I see minimal nectar increase now that orange blossom is done. I'm wondering if I"m done with honey extracting until fall. That would be a bummer as I didn't get much orange blossom either with the cool March temps.

Home auctions expand to Boston-Edison, Osborn communities
Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan on Monday announced the expansion of the city's online home auctions into two more neighborhoods and the goal to sell 400 vacant homes by the end of the year.
The auctions, part of Detroit's blight-fighting strategy, began last week in East English Village. They will expand into the Boston-Edison Historic District and the Osborn neighborhood later this month, said Duggan, who made the announcement inside a Boston-Edison home that will be among the homes up for auction.
"Anyone who doesn't think there is value in these neighborhoods is wrong," he said.
Duggan reported high demand for homes in the Detroit neighborhoods, including 1,000 people who came out to tour the 12 homes listed in East English Village and 6,000 who have registered to bid for homes on www.buildingdetroit.org. Due to that demand, he said the city's Land Bank will increase the number of homes auctioned each day from one to two and the length of the auction from five to seven days beginning May 27.
In the first week, five homes, each vacant for at least three years, were auctioned. Bids began at $1,000; winning bids ranged from $30,100 at 4335 Bishop to $42,100 at 4356 Harvard.
Costs to rehab the homes could be twice the price of the winning bid, according to the website. Winning bidders have six months to finish the rehabilitation and prove occupancy or forfeit the money and property.
The homes auctioned in the two new neighborhoods will also begin at $1,000; however, auction winners in Boston-Edison will be given nine months for rehab work due to the larger size of the historic homes.
Open houses for the Boston-Edison and Osborn properties are planned for on Saturday and Sunday. See the list of houses here.

Sanitizing with light is not new, but the residential application of it is leading edge. For more than 30 years, ultra violet light UV-C light has been used to sanitize in hospitals, food processing facilities, water treatment and HVAC systems. Chemical-free, odorless UV C light sanitizes biological pollutants, viruses, odor-causing bacteria, certain molds and other allergens such as pest eggs like bed bug, flea and dust mite eggs. By penetrating a micro-organism's cell membrane and damaging the DNA, the ultraviolet light prevents growth and kills the organism. The CleanWave® product line by Verilux includes two UVC light wands for use at home, office, the gym or when traveling; a toothbrush sanitizer with hand travel case, and two sanitizing vacuum products. Unlike those harsh chemical sanitizers that can irritate the skin, eyes and lungs and require long dwell times, the CleanWave® family of ultraviolet light sanitizing products are engineered to serve all your healthy home sanitizing needs from mattresses and flooring to other hard surfaces and household items that are not tolerant of liquids like countertops, remote controls, keyboards, phones, earrings, pacifiers and pet toys. CleanWave Portable products are ideal for dorm rooms, shopping cart handles, public restrooms, hand railings, plane or train head rests, and hotel surfaces like door knobs, faucet handles, remotes and more.

Vumon (teniposide) Injection
VUMON (teniposide injection) is a cytotoxic drug which should be administered under the supervision of a qualified physician experienced in the use of cancer chemotherapeutic agents. Appropriate management of therapy and complications is possible only when adequate treatment facilities are readily available.
Severe myelosuppression with resulting infection or bleeding may occur. Hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis-like symptoms, may occur with initial dosing or at repeated exposure to VUMON. Epinephrine, with or without corticosteroids and antihistamines, has been employed to alleviate hypersensitivity reaction symptoms.
VUMON® (teniposide injection) (also commonly known as VM-26), is supplied as a sterile nonpyrogenic solution in a nonaqueous medium intended for dilution with a suitable parenteral vehicle prior to intravenous infusion. VUMON is available in 50 mg (5 mL) ampules. Each mL contains 10 mg teniposide, 30 mg benzyl alcohol, 60 mg N,N-dimethylacetamide, 500 mg purified Cremophor® EL (polyoxyethylated castor oil)*, and 42.7% (v/v) dehydrated alcohol. The pH of the clear solution is adjusted to approximately 5 with maleic acid.
Teniposide is a semisynthetic derivative of podophyllotoxin. The chemical name for teniposide is 4'-demethylepipodophyllotoxin 9-[4,6-O-(R)-2-thenylidene-β-D-glucopyranoside]. Teniposide differs from etoposide, another podophyllotoxin derivative, by the substitution of a thenylidene group on the glucopyranoside ring.
Teniposide has the following structural formula:
Teniposide is a white to off-white crystalline powder with the empirical formula C32H32O13S and a molecular weight of 656.66. It is a lipophilic compound with a partition coefficient value (octanol/water) of approximately 100. Teniposide is insoluble in water and ether. It is slightly soluble in methanol and very soluble in acetone and dimethylformamide.
*Cremophor® EL is the registered trademark of BASF Aktiengesellschaft.
Cremophor® EL is further purified by a Bristol-Myers Squibb Company proprietary process before use.
What are the possible side effects of teniposide (Vumon)?
Get emergency medical help if you have any of these signs of an allergic reaction: hives; difficulty breathing; swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat.
Call your doctor at once if you have a serious side effect such as:
- fever, chills, itching, body aches, flu symptoms, sores in your mouth and throat;
- easy bruising, unusual bleeding (nose, mouth, vagina, or rectum), purple or red pinpoint spots under your skin;
- pale skin, feeling light-headed or short of breath, rapid heart rate, trouble concentrating;
- fast or pounding heartbeats, wheezing,...

Ok people, now off to the boys thread.
We won't even have to wait around to see Verner skate... in the 1st group
But I mean, being Asian that kind of stuff is misunderstood a lot, you know? A lot of Asians like to be humble at their achievements and I'm sure some people would take that as being arrogant or even pretentious. I mean, if she started to make number 1 motions in the air with her fingers and jumping up and down only, I would think she's an arrogant girl, but I like that she shakes her head in disbelief at her own abilities.
On another note, I found Rachael's program pretty delightful. I had little faith in her artistry before, but for some reason, during her step sequence tonight I was drawn in. It was cute, but also very captivating. Good job girl!
It's telling that lakeshore was hoping for YuNa to "bomb" and wants to cheer on a middle-of-the-pack skater like Mira Leung.
Some people have inferiority complexes and hate greatness...

I love her skating and I'm very happy to see her perform well, but I must say this breaking world record thing has become kind of ridiculous. OK, judges, I got it that you all love her, but don't let her break WR everytime! It makes me nervous watching her.
I think Rachel's 3t was rotated before she fell so maybe that is why her tech scores were better than folks think they should have been. And she really did sell the program. I do think that maybe Julia should be in second in the SP. Close though.
Yuna did under rotate a bit. I wonder why she gets away with it and Mirai gets zinged. Also her layback is not that good. The rest of the program is great and I don't think she PCS are out of line.
I think Fumie should take up speedskating and I miss her scratch spin.
I don't get the fuss over Alexe. She skates like a junior.

|Well i ordered 4 Kessil amazon sun A150W lights wth goose necks. Cant wait to get them
|I think i will need 4 of them to cover a 35x35 inch surface area
The tank in that video has 4 lights over it because it's a very deep tank, 30 inches deep, plus, we wanted to showcase the goosenecks too. The goosenecks hold the light close to the water, so it doesn't give the best spread. If we were to have the lights hanging at optimal levels, we would probably only need 3.
They're awesome lights, gives plants very nice color and great growth.
Here are the 3 18x18x18 cubes that are running amazon suns, as well as our big display (these pictures were taken on veterans day weekend - 2 weekends ago)
glosso iwagumi
belem hairgrass iwagumi
Mini pelia and UG
big tank
Really don't know. If you imported them directly you'd probably have to get them from kessil. I don't know how the whole different voltages works. We're 110, i think you guys are the same as Zim with a 220-230V system, not to mention different plug types. The plugs here are just a couple flat pins, not the 3 prongs with the ground wire.
It comes down to shipping. If you can get them there via fedex or DHL, and around customs without someone wanting a bribe or two, go for it! If it goes regular mail it'll never make it past the border post before being swiped!
I also use it on a 25g mr aqua cube that's 18x18x18. I've changed my layout (added way more plants and removed the sand) but here's what it looked like a while ago
The LFS that I go to actually recommended not using the gooseneck as it wasn't the most attractive thing out there and was kinda expensive. I ended up getting a flower pot holder and mounting that to the wall, then hanging the light down. It gives it good flexibility as you see in the picture the light was pretty high up (around 18 inches above the tank) but now as I've gotten more plants and c02 injection, I've lowered it to 8-9 inches above. At my LFS, they have 3 cubes setup and they have their lights just about 5 inches above the tank so it's really close and the plants are doing really well.
|Wonder if i can import them at a cheaper price.
|$30 is a lot for a single tank when you consider the ratio of average income there compared to salary. I have a fair bit of family there and they're getting out of dodge as the cost of living is getting out of hand compared to the salaries there. Well best of luck with them, they are nice lights. Enjoy the holidays.
|Eskom is raping us with the rates. My lights at the moment costs my about R250 a month on the one tank alone. $30 doesnt sound like alot. But the kessils will pay for themselves. Only affordable LEDs here are beamworks or something like that but they look [censored][censored][censored][censored]ty ans dont work to great. Theres other alternatives also but they are way more expensive. I would probably be able to import the lights myself but wil stil be more expensive as to what you guys get them at. The T5s im using now is doing a great job but the kessil also looks great ad i like that shimmer. I will post pcs of my tanks somete whwn i can rescale the size of them or something. Now on holidays so im not close to my tanks or pc it sucks. We also had a very limmited number of plants because theses somw parts of the country thats tropical so the BLacklist of plantspecies and fish is huge and theres very strict import regulations. But we got a new blacklist for plant species ans new import permits was issued last week so we can import plants again. Sucks that we cant keep shrimps here
|<cough> Finnex <cough>
|ouch, that's quite a wack per light, but don't know how bad Eskom's rates are. Have you looked at any alternatives? And yes i say that knowing that you guys don't have the million choices at the click of a button that we do here. I know there's several threads on here that I've run across talking about the alternatives. They're good lights, but ja, at 1.5 times the cost that they are here, jeepers that's a lot of dough.
|The one fish store is using one on thee display cube but its an 25inch cube more or less. One kessil kosts 3200 rand without the goose neck thw goose neck is 400 rand. So its $361.15 for one kessil light without tge gposeneck mounting. The thing is i would save money in the longrun
Hi there
So i have been using the Kessils since April. I got two of them over a 90 gallon, so 340L or so.
I can't comment much on energy consumption as i live in an apt. complex with centralized utility billing, but I do save a small fortune in bulbs. I used to have two 150w MH's over this tank. Are the kessils a real switch out....i am not entirely convinced.
Look shimmer effect is great, you get good plant growth, and yes they do mimic natural light and you get more shadows like you naturally would. I do find the light to be a bit dim at times. I could try put another kessil over the tank, but a 90 really isn't designed for that with the central bracing and its not a small chunk of change for another one.
If you look at the 120 gallon that they put a link up for...i mean it has 4 Kessils, that's approx $1200 in lighting at retail cost here in the U.S including the goosenecks, and if its a true MH replacement, putting 4 150w MH's over a 120gallon is a pretty significant amount of light.
I have no idea what these cost in SA. As an ex-Zimbabwean i can only imagine they cost an arm and a leg. I don't know if there's anyone over there who has a tank with them - if you can find someone - i'd go check them out first in person.
I'm a medical student moving onto residency in a few months, and my plan is to get a 180 gallon when i move. Realistically what I'll do is likely get another kessil, however, look into some alternatives to supplement it like the Ray2 strips or something.
I'll try attach some pics here. Excuse the fact that the tank is not exactly well scaped, lack of hardscape, etc. Like i said, I'm moving soon, and so I'm just fiddling around getting things to grow, playing with ferts, etc. I will say that my tank does get some supplemental sunlight from the window now that its winter, and it makes a fairly big difference on pearling.
|Thanx am using co2 yep. At rate of 5-8 bubbles per second into an inline reactor. Dosing dry ferts also.
|2 would work well. Be sure you're injecting c02 or it'll be too much light which will cause algae.
|the spread is supposed to be 24x24 if I remember correctly.

Excerpt: "There will apparently be time to add more tattoos, if Rex Ryan chooses.
During a discussion of the Jets general manager candidates, Rich Cimini of ESPNNewYork points out an important caveat in the interview process.
He writes, while discussing in-demand 49ers director of player personnel Tom Gamble, that the "word on the street is that the Jets are telling potential candidates they won't be considered unless they agree to keep Rex Ryan for a year."
The fact that the owner said Ryan would remain the day he fired general manager Mike Tannenbaum was a pretty good early sign, but it also speaks to the direction of the franchise.The guys who have multiple interviews have the benefit of leverage. If two jobs are equal in many respects, the ability to create a cohesive organization by hiring someone who shares your philosophy could tip the scales." Read more...

Subdued Medical Inflation Contains Spending Even as More Seek Care
A slower increase in health prices helped contain total medical spending in 2012 even though Americans visited doctors and hospitals more.
Health-care spending increased in 2012 at nearly the same pace as the modest gains recorded since the economic recovery began in 2009. A difference in 2012, compared with 2011, was that less of the gain was attributable to more expensive care and more of it was due to increased usage, according to a report released Monday by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.
The aging population made more visits and sought more intense treatment from hospitals, doctors and other providers, the report said. In addition, the improving economy and lower unemployment encouraged some patients to pursue elective procedures they had put off in previous years.
Those factors would have caused health expenditures to rise more rapidly in 2012 had medical prices increased faster than overall inflation, as was typical in the decade prior to the current recovery.
Instead, health-care inflation slowed to a 1.7% increase in 2012 from a 2.4% rise the year prior. Overall inflation, as measure by the consumer price index, advanced 2.1% in 2012.
Monday's report showed that only half of the increase in health spending per capita, a measure that controls for population changes, was due to higher prices. A year earlier, 80% of the gain was due to medical inflation.
"In 2012, health care prices recorded a much lower rate of increase than we've seen in recent years," said Anne Martin, the report's author and an economist at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. "The primary reason was the slowing of prescription drug costs."
The slowdown in prices was due to an unusually large number of high-volume, high-cost drugs, such as the popular cholesterol medication Lipitor, losing patent protection in recent years. That resulted in increased sales of lower-cost generic drugs. Spending on prescription drugs increased 0.4% in 2012 compared with a 2.5% gain the prior years, the report said.
Two changes with Medicare also put downward pressure on prices. The Affordable Care Act mandated "a minimal" reduction in Medicare spending due to productivity adjustments, Ms. Martin said. Also, Medicare implemented a one-time payment reduction for skilled nursing facilities in 2012.
Other factors also are influencing the slowdown in medical inflation.
Less-generous health plans are forcing patients to pay more attention to prices, and some consumers are choosing lower-cost options. Also, the deep recession that began 2007 and slow recovery afterward caused price gains to ease in response to weak demand. While demand appeared to increase somewhat in 2012, prices may not have fully adjusted.
Medical inflation continued to abate through the first three quarters of last year, according to previously released Commerce Department data. In the third quarter of 2013, health-care prices advanced less than 1% from a year earlier—the weakest gain in a half century.
Economists are divided over whether the lower-cost trend can persist. Aspects of the Affordable Care Act and the shifting of costs from employers to consumers are expected to pressure doctors and health systems to keep prices down.
But the new health-care law also expands coverage to millions of previously uninsured Americans. With increased coverage, those consumers may pursue more care, and as a result put upward pressure on prices. Also, drug prices tend to be cyclical and are likely to move up more rapidly when new, patent-protected drugs come to market.

Life is Pain is a peculiar name for a comedy show by the affable and chipper Alan Davies.
Despite the grim title, which is taken from the response a young girl Davies knew once gave to her mother scolding her, the Jonathan Creek star comes across on stage much as he does on QI - cheery, silly and quick-witted.
Performing in New Zealand for the first time in 15 years, Davies' show is based off his own life experiences, of growing up in Essex, drama school with lesbians, and the fear of babies dying.
Davies has a habit of straying away from his routine and engaging with the crowd, from finding out which bus a group of train commuters late to their seats should take to get back home to Mt Albert (it's the 69, FYI), or whether two separate parties from a small town in Yorkshire know each other (it appears they don't).
These off-the-cuff moments are among the best in the show, with the crowd very much involved in the entertainment, even though as Davies says these are the parts of the show "you haven't paid for".
Given the location, the show at one stage starts to feel like a Town Hall meeting, with Davies learning about Aucklanders' gripes with our dismal public transport system and sharing his own feelings about New Zealand's obsession with The Hobbit (an English book written by an Englishman, he says).
The 46-year-old jokes his memory is fading and reveals that when he walks to the left of stage to get a drink of water he is actually checking notes tacked to a wall to see where he is in his routine.
Davies clearly enjoys himself on the stage, and is often in fits with the sold-out crowd.
By the end of the show, your jaw will hurt from laughter, you'll have learnt a thing or to about growing up in Essex in the '70s and '80s, and you may have just be reunited with an old friend from Blighty in the audience.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Great advice. I was also thinking of putting a few pouches of panty hose or some other kind of nylon pouch with old gravel in the new setup for a week or 2. This way the bacteria is there but the gravel can be removed easily.
No matter which substrate you want to use, getting a fishless cycle going before you move and including some of that substrate in the bucket is a good idea. I would also include some filter media, sponge, bio noodles or whatever.
Do not bother making the substrate layer too deep, the bacteria will not grow in the lower area, not enough oxygen.
When you set up the new tank put the rest of the substrate in first and use the cycled media from the fishless cycle on top. Again, the bacteria will not survive deep under the substrate. Depending on the size of the particles about 1/4" to 1/2" deep is about the max.
If you start with no source of bacteria the fishless cycle will take 3 weeks.
If you do a few water changes and add the mulm and dirty water to the bucket there is a small bacteria population in that, but not very much.
If you add some of the media from a cycled filter that is the best source of bacteria.
Read about the fishless cycle. To grow bacteria you need to feed them.
|I don't have a complete list going, I just feel like I have found a number of things that I thought would have been important to include in the pro/cons. Like I don't think any of them mention anything about the substrates causing Ph shifts, and some do.
|I feel there is nothing else to really fill in, in that substrate sticky. What else do you want to be put into it.
|+1 on the Eco complete. Love that substrate.
Thanks guys.
Beer don't worry about pictures - was just curious to see your tank if you had any already up. Thanks though!

Photos and details about using it in my journal threads although most have a soil base layer.
When I was thinking of moving to Florida I was researching the same thing. Seemed to me using substrates from the pet store would have been easier to set up but would cause problems. Had decided sticking with dirt and topping with sand would be less stressful for fish.
In my tanks I put reptile coconut bark on the bottom. For it prevents smelly air pocket from developing. Then mix some potting soil and top soil. Next tank using Hydroponics potting soil and Scott's top soil. For sand I found river sand from landscaper needs very little rinsing. Mostly just sift the larger pieces out. Found after a year the ferts peat out thus added DIY root tabs to established tank.
On 1 thread read 1 saved the mulm from the bottom of the tank when emptying for seeding the substrate. Many I have read just seed the filter with old media.
|Unfortunately I don't. I am not home right now, so I can't take any pictures. Best I could do is an iPhone picture on Wednesday. I'm sure there are some pictures in the tank journal section or in this section of the forum.

Black Diamond is a media blasting material. As the name indicates, it is black. It is almost a glass like material. There are different grades, which correlate to different grain sizes from really fine to a fairly coarse sand. It's inert and works well for me. And it is pretty cheap; I think around $10 for a 40lb bag. If you don't mind the root tabs, it's a pretty good way to go. I've had it for the past year or so with no issues. Just rinse it first and you should be good to go.
You could start it in a bucket with a fish-less cycle a few weeks to a month before moving. If you seed it by squeezing a filter sponge into the bucket, you may be able to cycle it in a week or so. You could then transport the fish and plants in the bucket(s) and help minimize the stress to the fish if it is a long move. Just lay a base layer in the tank and then transfer the substrate from the bucket as the top layer in the tank. The cycle, if there is one, should be really quick.
|Thanks wkndracer... I've read this but I just think there is a lot of info lacking here. I brought up in another thread, which didn't grow legs at all - that maybe the sticky needs updating. I feel like there could be more input could be added to each of the categories - the short statements leave a lot to the imagination. The more I read and research, the more questions I have and more info I find that seems important but isn't included... Oh well I guess you can't complain because we have such a great resource as it is here already!
Thanks Diana! Once again you are a wealth of knowledge!! I will do some more reading about Eco Complete. I do EI dosing and root tabs now, so I am comfortable continuing with that process.
I know sometimes people do some nutrient additives when they are setting up. Would you recommend anything like that, or is root tabs and EI still a good option?
As far as moving the tank... I did last time have a very successful move (although I was not swapping out the substrate.) I do not recall if I did water testing, I'm sure I did. I didn't loose any of the fish in the process.
I will probably hold off on starting any sort of fishless cycle for a while (anticipating a move in June - July). As far as this process do you think that I could just take a roll of canister filter sponge material and put it in a bucket with water from the aquarium on a water change prior to the move? Do I need to keep "feeding" the bacteria with anything? How long before the move should this be done?
Substrates that cause a minimum of water chemistry issues:
Eco Complete. Occasionally I still hear of a bag that raises the pH of the water. This is rare. I would trust it to be inert in the senses that you are asking about. It will hold nutrients for the plants. (Cationic Exchange Capacity) You do need to add those nutrients, of course.
Pool filter sand. This has no CEC, and is almost always light in color. A bit better than gravel, but not by much.
Pebble Tek and similar materials. Inert, and you can get all sorts of colors. It is very dense, so it will hold plants down, but really is just a glorified sand.
Flourite has a large product line, and it is worth looking into. Several products are highly thought of for planted tanks, high CEC and dense enough to hold the plants down well until they root.
Acceptable water chemistry changes:
If you are keeping soft water fish and do not mind that the substrate can remove the KH, then Safe-T-Sorb and its relatives would be a great choice. You can add fish pretty much right away. Turface (Landscape/ Greenskeeper product) is similar, but I do not like the color choices now available. High CEC, and I like the soft, natural color of Safe-T-Sorb. These materials tend to be a bit light weight, though.
If you are keeping hard water fish and want the benefits of a substrate that raises KH, GH and pH then coral sand is OK, but is light in color.
You know ahead of time that you are moving.
Not all the nitrifying bacteria is going to survive the move, especially when you are going to swap out the substrate at the same time.
Start now:
Get a 5 gallon bucket or similar tub and do a fishless cycle with any sort of media that will grow bacteria. This will give you a big reserve of nitrifying bacteria that you can add to the tank when you move and set it up. Cheaper than buying bacteria in a bottle, and you know it is working!

Smoke Up and Be Somebody
If cigarettes are good for birds, it must make sense that they are good for humans too, right?
I wonder if there's a way we can impart this knowledge to children? This might work:

Erik, I always thought you would make a great smoker.
More doctors smoke Camels than any other brand
smoke? so I dont need all this lube then?
This answers the question, "Is our birdies learning?"
They're learning that you can do it! You can have more flavor.
And, like Clinton, they're not inhaling!
According to researchers at St. Andrews University, the nicotine and other chemicals in discarded filters act as a natural pesticide that repels parasitic mites
I know what they were trying to say here, but the word "natural" in that sentence seems really misplaced.
Nicotine is natural. The path it takes getting into the bird is not, but the nicotine itself is.
If they'd said "the nicotine acts as a natural pesticide…" then the use of the word natural would not at all be out of place. IIRC the whole reason that tobacco plants create nicotine is to dissuade pests from eating the leaves since it's a poison.
It's the use of the word natural with the phrase "other chemicals in discarded filters" that has me thinking that there must be another word to use there.
It's been so long since cigarette ads were allowed on TV that I had almost forgotten this commercial. It's good to be reminded that there is essentially nothing that corporations won't stoop to in the pursuit of profit. Using beloved cartoon characters to sell an addictive, environmentally destructive, poisonous carcinogen to kids? No problem!
Whaddaya mean "environmentally destructive"? Cigarette butts save birds' lives!
If you're thinking about making the selfish decision to quit smoking, think about all the dead birds that will inevitably result.
G*d knows how many cigarette butts I've picked up during Coastal Cleanup every year. I hope He will forgive me for murdering all those birds.
Well, but think of the Divine Credits you get for saving all those parasites!
I mean bird parasites, not moochers.
I really had forgotten how brazen they were at marketing cigarettes to kids in those days. But then again, that was a time when the local convenience store or gas station would sell a pack to pretty much anyone who could put the money on the counter, and it didn't matter whether you had started puberty or not, never mind enforcing the notional 16-year-old or whatever it was legal age of the time.
As I understand it, and I may not, The Flintstones was considered to be an adult show, or at least family. It was broadcast in the evening family hours, not after school/Sat morning. Still…
Mmmm yeah, IIRC, they were the first show on in the network block in the evening, so 7:30 (the FCC didn't mandate the networks not show evening programming until 8:00 until some later date). So yeah, Flintstones wasn't a kids show for the Saturday cartoon ghetto, but I'm willing to bet the actual viewership skewed pretty young.
IIRC, "The Flintstones" was originally pitched to the TV audience as an "adult cartoon": an approach which lasted an extraordinarily short time, even by TV standards: the show got sent back to the kid-vid ghetto after just a few months, I think. But obviously, RJ Reynolds must have thought the show had some pitch-potential to the smoking audience while in primetime…..
Nothing stopped me from using cigarette vending machines in gas stations. If anyone asked, I was buying them for my dad.
And yeah, the Flintstones weren't a Saturday morning kid's cartoon.
Exactly my point. It was absurdly easy for kids to get cigarettes back in the 60's. I knew some kids who started in 5th-6th grade (so ages 10-12).

Oh, oh, you are in trouble now, she looks she is going to get around pretty fast! They do grow up fast, don't they? I was glad to see Carter....he looks like he had fun, always smiling! Thanks for sharing with us!ReplyDelete
Adorable pictures Libby!! I can't believe what a big boy Carter is now!! Very handsome too!!ReplyDelete
Such sweet pictures. I especially love the one of the two of them interacting with each other.ReplyDelete
I can really see Carter taking on that big boy look now. I've always thought he was such a cute little guy! The photo of the two of them together is so sweet. Courtney looks completely smitten with her big brother. They'll always have a special bond. It's just wonderful watching them grow up here on your blog. I can't believe we've been visiting since before Courtney was even conceived! And, actually, it hasn't been really all that long since I discovered your blog. That tells you how fast they grow up. This documentation is going to mean so much to you someday so, please, for yourself at least, keep sharing your little sweethearts!ReplyDelete

South Korean group describes everyday life with threat of war
BRISTOL, Va. - All eyes have been on North Korea as threats of missile attacks on both the U.S. and South Korea have been made over the last few weeks.
Friday we caught up with folks visiting our region from South Korea who say the threat of war is simply a scare tactic and while everyday life is normal, they're ready when threats become a reality.
The sights and sounds of traditional music from South Korea can be heard in Bristol thanks to the Korean Children's Choir. They've traveled all the way from Jeju in South Korea to Bristol for a performance at the Paramount.
Threats of a possible missile launch and nuclear war by North Korea have been escalating for weeks. We caught up with the choir's manager, Scott Gilstrap, to hear more about the rising tension between North and South Korea. "For almost the whole population of Korea it's normal. But maybe for younger people it's scary for them because this is new to them, since they're younger they don't know what's going on," added Gilstrap.
He says he's not worried for his safety but military exercises by the U.S. and South Korea have become routine. "They do air drills and they want everybody off the street. If they've got people driving they want people to stop and try to get out," said Gilstrap.
Billy Kim helped bring the Korean Children's Choir to Bristol. He says as of right now there's a war of words between Kim Jong Un, the leader of North Korea, and those in South Korea. It's even impacting a factory right on the border. "Now [North Korea] got mad at South Korea for some reason, they pulled out all 53,000 workers so everything is at a standstill," added Kim.
But there is the hope tensions will one day settle. "With the North Korean shortage of food, shortage of gas, oil, and I don't know if they can survive. We hope soon there will be unification," said Kim.
You can catch the Korean Children's Choir Friday at 7 p.m. at the Paramount Center for the Arts in downtown Bristol. Admission is free but they will accept donations.

Primetime to hold outdoor concert
The Breezy Point City Council unanimously approved a special use permit Monday night, Aug. 5, for Primetime restaurant to hold an outdoor concert featuring four bands at the base of the tubing hill in Breezy Point.
The concert will be from 2-10 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 14. Bands will include Circle of Heat, John Wayne and the Pain, God Johnson and Aitus, and each band will play for two hours.
The council agreed no parking signs would be put up on Ski Chalet Drive and Terminal Road, and parking would not be allowed in the cemetery. Overflow parking would be allowed on Airport Road and Four Seasons Place.
Representing Primetime, Brian Martin told the council he expects to have around 300 people attend the concert. Breezy Point Police Chief Kevin Merschman said that with that many attendants, he doesn't expect to need any extra police coverage that night.
Public safety
In July, the Breezy Point Police Department reported a total of 248 calls to service, including 58 traffic-related, one traffic arrest, 34 agency assists, 16 animal related, 11 thefts, eight accidents and 101 miscellaneous.
In other business Monday, the council:
• Agreed to an animal control contract with Animal Control Enforcement Services. The contract included an annual rate increase of $280.80. The service received a total of 41 animal calls in 2012, and responded to 25 that year. So far this year they've received 27 calls and responded to nine.
• Agreed to maintain its municipal tort liability with the League of Minnesota Cities.
• Agreed to purchase a new squad car for the police department. The department will replace a 2008 Ford Crown Victoria with a 2013 Police Interceptor all-wheel-drive sedan. The department budgeted $36,000 total for the purchase.

A Pakaraka property with approval for further subdivision offers many options for a creative buyer.
A Northland rural commercial property, occupying a prominent highway position an hour north of Whangarei and previously planned as the site of a motorhome village, has been put up for sale.
The property at 7012 State Highway 1, Pakaraka, about 20km south of Kerikeri and close to the junction with SH10, is in two titles totalling just more than 6ha.
Alan Broadbent of Bayleys Kerikeri is marketing the property, which will be auctioned on Friday, February 22, unless sold prior.
The property was originally set up as a dairy farm in the 1960s before being converted to orchard blocks with supporting packing shed and coolstore facilities.
"It is owned by Martin and Diana Visser, who garnered a groundswell of support for their plan to create a motorhome village on the site back in 2010," Broadbent says.
"The Vissers got well down the track with the concept before putting it on hold. However, the plan may still have legs if a laterally thinking buyer wished to pursue it.
"It would be the first purpose-built motorhome village in New Zealand and approved plans were in place for it. On the drawing board were freehold building sites for villas aimed at semi-permanent residents to own and live in when not touring or travelling overseas," says Broadbent.
"The thinking behind it was to create a place where people could live affordably and securely while sharing workshop and storage facilities for their motorhomes."
The land has approval for further subdivision and offers multiple development possibilities.
"Approval is currently in place for the first stage of a three-stage subdivision into residential lots of [about] 2000sq m," says Broadbent. "Much of the infrastructure for this development is already in place with some established internal roading, underground power and telephone, and a reliable water supply."
He says the land is gently sloping, with mature trees and shelter creating an attractive backdrop for the buildings and future developments.
A new owner has the options of proceeding with the residential subdivision, using all the facilities towards one major commercial activity, or retaining a chosen area of land and selling the balance.
There are two dwellings on the property - a generous two-level, four-bedroom family home with a tidy self-contained flat on the ground floor, and an adjacent cottage-style workshop/studio, with approval to be converted into another dwelling.
"The wild card in the mix is the 1200sq m former coolstore/pack-house building with an additional mezzanine area and upstairs accommodation," says Broadbent.
"In the Visser's original motorhome village concept plans, this building was to have been the linchpin as it has capacity to store up to 16 motorhomes at any one time.
"Quite feasibly, however, this huge shed could have appeal as a recreational venue, a covered equestrian centre, an indoor market or even a training facility."
Broadbent says a range of grazing or growing options are available for the fertile pasture land if productive usage is on a new owner's radar.
"Established markets at nearby Kerikeri and Paihia, and at Whangarei, are within easy reach of this property if lifestyle farming or horticultural angles are pursued."
Mark Macky, director of Bayleys in the North which has five Northland offices, says renewed vigour in the Northland property market was observed at the close of last year.
"With a widely-tipped 'flight to the north' now likely as buyers are priced out of the heated Auckland market, development opportunities are once again coming under the spotlight in the Northland area," Macky says.
"Agents in the region are reporting the highest levels of sales, new listings and buyer inquiry than they've seen in at least four years."
What's on offer
Property: 6ha in two titles
Where: 7012 SH1, Pakaraka, Northland
Features: Previous plans for motorhome village; approval for residential subdivision
Agency: Bayleys Kerikeri
Sales method: Auction Friday, February 22, unless sold prior.

Chapters like this help make Bleach's lesser used characters more than a footnote and really helps to flesh out the universe. Was he an important character for plot? Not especially, since we never really saw him do anything. But here we see that he was important to the characters, and through him we learn a little more about the bigger characters, like Yamamoto.
Sure beats the random "I'm a villain who just got killed, here's my sad story" flashbacks. Those feel like forced attempts at storytelling. So far this arc is a huge improvement over HM.

so 4 sternritters kicked the bucket in a hit....yet our ichigo couldnt do it against kirge and im not sure if kirge is even a sternritter
assuming by alphabets theres 22 sternritters left or 21 if kirge is one.....i guess its still too much for SS to handle and needs the Squad 0
then again buckbeard may create more troops with the help of halibel *cough cough*
and i actually hope the real vastro lordes enter in this arc and it becomes a 3 way war maybe.....

Seeing a young Yamamoto and learning of his initial first name were interesting parts of this chapter for me. And who would've thought Sasakibe of all people was able to scar Yamamoto? Though I'm almost positive Yamamoto was probably a lot weaker back then.

Tch tch, pissing off an old man in Bleach....Do these people have no common sense? Well Kubo sure managed to put some meaning in Sasakibe's death and a little into his not using his Bankai. Nice chapter.
Now give me a pissed off Kenny!!!

i really liked this chapter. the flashback was great. took me a few moments to realize that was yama-jii lol.
the only thing bugging me is ichigo beating sasakibe so easily back in the day. even without bankai, he shouldn't have been a complete pushover back then... also why use bankai against shitritters and not ichigo? still this chapter was great, i need to adopt the kubo mentality of "screw the past, who cares?"

Good chapter this week. Bleach has been getting better since the moment this invasion started. Last panel was excellent. Hope that the momentum can keep going here, hopefully with a few more SS deaths.
Just do us all a favor Kubo and bring the Zero Division into the fray relatively soon.

Well, the bankai was about what I expected given from what we saw in that Zanpakuto filler arc in the anime. So it was good that it was consistent. (that arc and also the Kageroza one in-between Aizen and Fullbringers are worth the watch if you need a Bleach fix)

Good chapter by the way, especially the last page. Very focused and used panel space well to convey both the fight and flashback at once.

Still wondering whether or not they can absorb two at once. Would it really be that bad for Renji to test it out? Its not like Renji's bankai is all that great anyways. And he probably knows very well how his captain's bankai works by now. Although it's quite possible that the disc or whatever is empty again if Byakuya died. Or he pulls out a second disc, lol.

I agree with the consensus: this was a good chapter. It's nice to see Yamamoto get a bit of backstory.
Sasakibe's bankai seems pretty impressive. He could have probably dispatched the invaders fairly easily if his bankai hadn't been stolen, depending on how many lightning bolt he can launch at once.

As for the 'disk being empty', we know that Sasakibe is dead but the sternritter is using his bankai anyways...so death can't stop the bankai usage, but I too wonder if more than one bankai can be held at a time

Nice chapter but is all honesty it is hard to take it seriously, especially this line: "Soon everyone knew his name."
Sorry Kubo, but even now I don't remember it. In order for things like this to have a meaning you actually need to show it. Flash the character more, repeat it;s name occasionally. Or if it is a minor big MAN then at least refer to hi like that. Make him do something to live up to that name!
Yet you Kubo did nothing expect everyone to cry buckets of tears and show respect for a man who proved himself to be worthy only in this 1 chapter -_-

But I don't like them using the Bankais anyways, for the reasons I stated, when the stealing began: IMHO it doesn't make sense, that they know how to use a power, they've never seen before and how to effectively fight with it.
How can they even know, if the Bankai they have caught is even useful in the current situation. Imagine Soi Fon's Bankai in a close range fight: not very useful.

What is in this article?:
- Control Freaks: Time for New HVAC-System Concepts
- Low Air Volume Systems
- Cost Effective and Integrated
This is the mechanical room of the Empire State building, which underwent a multi-million dollar renovation project in 2009. The mechanical system upgrade was done to reduce energy consumption by 38 percent and allow the Empire State Building to enter the top 10 percent of eco-friendly offices.
Despite the enormous changes in building heating- and cooling-load patterns in modern buildings, HVAC systems continue to be configured very much the same way as they were generations ago. Then, the building envelope, lighting, and plug loads dominated the thermal balance in commercial structures. In today's more efficient commercial buildings, the thermal influence of envelope, lighting, and plug loading has fallen so dramatically that in many efficient buildings occupants now dominate the thermal load.
When control capabilities were limited and non-occupant loads dominated building heating and cooling, it made sense to set up building-wide occupancy schedules, and apply HVAC resources to condition and ventilate buildings more or less uniformly during scheduled occupancy. But with the changes in technology and thermal loads, and the requirement for more efficient buildings, our industry sorely needs new HVAC systems!
So let's start by considering the paradigm shift possible in HVAC systems as the occupants themselves become the dominate element in the thermal equation of building spaces. The need for general space conditioning fades and it becomes possible to direct both thermal and ventilation resources entirely to the building occupants - whenever and wherever they are in the building. Modern controls make it easy to determine when and where occupants are in the building. The only sticking point is that most current HVAC system components available today are intended for general building conditioning. It is both difficult and expensive to reconfigure these components for more specific occupant-based conditioning. What's really needed is an entirely new kind of HVAC system.

Last night I continued my exploration of asian cuisine and we went with some of the residents to have some taiwanese milk tea (which in esence is tea made with milk instead of water but served cold and with different flavours). I quite enjoyed it and it was pertty weird to go to a milk bar (they didn't offer much else). Apparently they have it fairly often over here so I guess I'll get to taste varieties other than the "classic with pearls" that I had last night.
