Lawn care services Florida area
Hey guys. I know this defeats the whole purpose of DIY but, now that my parents are getting older, they are having a tougher time keeping up with the maintenance of their yard, specifically their lawn. I was planning on hiring a company that specializes in this but I was hoping to find some help. I really have no idea on what companies are in the area and how to research whose worth hiring. I don't need mowing services or anything like that, just strictly fertilization services to keep the grass/soil healthy. I was hoping someone on here can help point me in the right direction. I'm in the central FL area (Volusia county to be exact).
My plans are this. Right now they have a mix of bahia grass and weeds with a lot of bare spots. I'd like to have new grass put in (thinking of some type of Zoysia) hopefully by the same company that will do the maintenance and after everything grows and becomes stable, I'd like to take over the maintenance myself and see how that goes.
I would appreciate any info. Thanks
Talk to their neighbors. Find out who is using a lawn service.
Maybe you will find a neighborhood kid who is looking for some weekend cash. Care to guess what I was doing when I was 14-16?
Do your parents have irrigation? If not, it's nearly impossible to have a lush green lawn. As another poster said, talk to the neighbors. There are two kinds of Bahia. I have Pensacola.
If you're near hwy 1792, Debary nursery is the best place around. They could also recommend a lawn service.
Google :)
In my opinion the ones who run Google Ads are trying to do things right, check one out. I feel like they are trying to take pride in their biz and will do good work.

What's wrong with "least cost" for CO ratepayers?
Filed under: Archive, New Energy Economy
In State Senator Scott Renfroe's closing remarks to the State, Veterans and Military Affairs committee, he reasonably questioned members while asking for support of their support for SB11-058: "What's wrong with striving to have our energy sources be the least cost?"
Apparently everything.
The committee defeated Renfroe's "Electric Utilities Employ Least-Cost Planning for New Resource Acquisition" along party lines with Democrat Senators Rollie Heath, Bob Bacon and Betty Boyd voting against the pro-ratepayer bill. Senators Bill Cadman and Kevin Grantham voted in favor of ratepayers.
What would SB 58 have done for Colorado's energy users:
- Require the PUC to consider "cost" when deciding on new energy facilities and resource acquisition.
- Put cost to ratepayers before the PUC commissioners' environmental values.
- Prohibit "costs that are not identified as those that will be actually incurred by the electric utility may no be included in the revenue requirement analyses."
- Prohibit the $20 per ton phantom carbon tax.
Former Public Utilities Commissioners Polly Page and Carl Miller testified that over the last several years the PUC has changed its mission from the least cost principle that leads to affordable, abundant and reliable energy" to one that favors renewable energy sources regardless of cost to ratepayers. Predictably, renewable energy representatives were on hand to protect their heavily-subsidized industry.
The Independence Institute's Amy Oliver Cooke encouraged the committee to be "forward thinking" and support the bill because it repeals language that assumes the risk of a national $20/ton carbon tax that Congress probably won't pass any time soon. Even if it did, it would take five years to implement. Also, the carbon tax that was discussed at the federal level prior to last November's congressional power shift was not anywhere near $20/ton. At the high end, it was $12/ton. So Colorado ratepayers endure the cost for an obscenely high, non-existent carbon tax. Renfroe's bill would have corrected this injustice.
Renfroe also reported that Xcel Energy electricity customers have seen their rates rise a whopping 21 percent over the last few years and are expected to continue to do so. Furthermore, Colorado has higher rates than all neighboring states except New Mexico. And coincidentally, Xcel is enjoying huge profits.
But in the end it did not matter because Senator Bacon (D-Fort Collins) is worried about being a good steward of environment and keeping it clean for future generations. For that reason, he voted "no," which was in kind of funny because his comments on the previous bill about transparency and new technology indicated he was more concerned with older Coloradans who want to hold a newspaper rather than use a computer. Also, doesn't hard copy kill trees so crucial to the environment he claims to protect? Confused? So were some others in the room.
Senator Bacon also frightened everyone with stories of his trip to China and the "pall" that was cast over country from dirty fossil fuels. Perhaps the Senator doesn't know that those fossil fuel utility plants generate the electricity needed to manufacture the solar panels that U.S. businesses buy from Chinese companies. China controls much of the world's solar panel production because they are rich in the rare earth minerals needed for manufacturing.
Senator Heath (D-Boulder) voted no because the "least cost planning rule" is regressive. So providing low cost energy to Colorado ratepayers takes the state backwards? Confused? So were some others in the room.
Heath also cited troubling events in Egypt and the reliance on "foreign oil" as another reason to vote "no." Apparently Senator Heath doesn't know that Canada is the number one supplier of oil to the U.S.
Bottom line: Ratepayers lose while Xcel and subsidized renewable energies win and continue to enjoy their favorable treatment from the Colorado legislature.

[...] Democrats on the Colorado State Senate State, Veterans, and Military Affairs Committee this week voted down legislation that would have required state regulators to return to least-cost electricity planning. [...]
[...] Most interesting are the 14 bills Xcel opposes, including pro-consumer legislation such as transparency on ratepayers' energy bills and reducing energy costs through utilization of a "least cost principle." [...]

"My daughter is a Minecraft junkie and has Autism and poor handwriting skills. By getting these unique, fun, personalized Valentines she will have less writing to do, just the envelopes. And what 5th grader is not obsessed with Minecraft? These cards are small and vibrant and you can't really find Minecraft valentines elsewhere. I hope that the kids in her class will be impressed and more accepting of her. These cards are keepers!!"
"I've ordered these Valentine cards for my boys to give to their classmates. They are so adorable and my boys love them and can't wait to share them with their friends! The quality of the cards is very good and I highly recommend them! We also bought a Ninja Suckers to go with them!"
"We decided to get class Valentines printed to make it easier to address the 40-ish Valentines my son hands out each year. My 2.5 year old son picked these out of a short list of cool boy's designs and they turned out so cute! Perfect Valentine from a rough and tumble boy like my son. Bright colours and a great little size (about the size of a playing card). We opted not to include a picture on the inside so it's is all blue which looks great! Would definitely recommend."
"My son helped me pick out this card to use for his 4 year old preschool classmates. He really wanted a card that the boys and the girls would like and thought this was a good one. Having his picture on the inside is so cute. He also picked the red envelopes to put them in. Based on this card we did a "you rock" theme for his goodie bags. We ordered guitar-shaped bubble bottle necklaces and Valentine's rock and roll stickers from another website to put in the bags with these cards. Very cute!"
"My three year old loves construction trucks and when we received these he smiled and exclaimed 'an excavator!' so I knew right then it was a hit. I chose to put a photo of him inside to personalize it even more, and I love the result. Great bright colors -- I can't wait to give these out to his class."

HTC One X Video
Loading up the HTC One X with your multimedia as as easy as you like. You can use HTC's Sync Manager software or simply drag and drop your files onto it. There are also options for USB tethering (using your phone's internet connection to connect your computer to the world) and Internet Pass-Through, which lets your phone piggyback off your computer's connection to access the internet.
Once loaded with files, the default music player and picture viewer able to handle most files you can expect to load onto such a device, while you can use any manner of third-party video app to play just about any video file you wish – the default one doesn't play many formats. Video playback is flawless with the phone able to handle even the highest bit rate videos that some dedicated media players can't handle. It of course looks great on the screen too.
The Music app brings together your local music and other music services in one easy interface
As for the Beats Audio branding, it refers to an inbuilt audio processing option – an EQ setting essentially. Turn it on and audio and music generally does come to life that bit more but we're still suspicious of quite what HTC is doing here, as the default mode sounds blinkin' awful. We're going to have a bit more of a play to see if we can find out exactly what's going on. The Music app itself, though, is great with it integrating other music services into the one interface.
To get help get content onto your phone there's access to Google Video where you can rent movies for around £3.49 a time. There's also HTC Watch, which similarly allows for movie downloads. Between them there's a decent selection, and HTC Watch is even offering a host of 5p rentals at the moment, including Super 8, Transformers: Dark Of The Moon and Friends With Benefits.
Other HTC additions include a hook up with 7Digital for music downloads, TuneIn Radio to accompany the built in FM radio and most importantly a partnership with DropBox. This gives you 25GB of storage for free for two years, which is considerably more than the 2GB you normally get for free. The service is also integrated into the software, so it will automatically upload your photos, for instance, and you can access your dropbox photos through the Android Gallery app. It's a brilliant value add, even if we do prefer Sugar Sync.
On the battery life front, we didn't have the issues reported by some publications. Yes, it drains in less than a day if you're using it really intensively but in our average usage pattern it easily lasted through the day.
The HTC One X is a superb Android smartphone that packs in just about every key feature you can think off. The HD screen is the best we've ever seen, its quad core processor is mighty fast, its camera mostly impressive and its design is reasonably smart. However, a few ergonomics and design issues just take the edge off enough to leave us a tiny bit disappointed. It is rather large, too. Nonetheless, it's currently one of the best smartphones, if not the best on the market.

With Justified, executive producer/writer Graham Yost has assembled an exceptional Elmore Leonard adaptation. Leonard's neo-noir narratives typically conform to the single-minded logic of their characters. Protagonists and antagonists alike scheme in adjacent but mostly compartmentalized plots; their plans are almost always at cross-purposes, and if they do ever coincide with each other, it's usually for a momentously bloody occasion. Yost's show, whose first season is based on Leonard's short story "Fire in the Hole," pivots around that central logic, which is something of a mixed blessing for a serial narrative.
Up until now, Justified has been limited by its creators' abilities to sculpt its individual characters' plans into several little parts that together form a greater whole. In that sense, while the season finale leaves several plot threads dangling, the fact that the immediate, presiding narrative of that season is resolved makes it feel like the series's main narrative has been wrapped up too. Every smaller story in Justified wraps up to make room for the next narrative, then the next, then the next. It's a never-slackening chain of events, one that only slows down periodically but never stalls.
Still, because actions have consequences, the impact of any given subplot in Justified spurs on most of the other ones. "Fire in the Hole," Justified's series premiere, begins by introducing us to U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens (Timothy Olyphant), a self-proclaimed straight shooter and man of action. Raylan kills Tommy Bucks, a badman by any other name, in Miami within the first few moments of "Fire in the Hole," and is reminded of that fact for the rest of the first season in some way or another. The most immediate effect of that death is the way that Raylan is relocated to his hometown of Harlan, Kentucky and set to work on busting up a group of thugs led by local psychopath and former colleague Boyd Crowder (Walton Goggins) and his father Bo (M.C. Gainey).
Another effect of Raylan shooting Bucks only happens about midway through the first season though: David Vasquez (Rick Gomez), an Assistant U.S. Attorney, abruptly shows up at Raylans's office, smiling and unsuccessfully trying to reassure everybody that while he has been assigned to investigate Raylan's activities, he has the best of intentions. His narrative doesn't seem to have any consequences beyond two or three episodes and then he's gone. And yet, for those two or three episodes, it's unclear where Vasquez came from or what he really wants from Raylan and his colleagues. Then he's gone and his storyline is finished. Within the context of Justified, that kind of abrupt appearance, sudden panic and then equally swift disappearing act is normal.
In the time that he is on the show, Vasquez's good intentions don't matter much because in Justified, only the good guys have clearly discernible motives and there are very few of those on the show. Only a handful of characters wear their white hats as prominently as Raylan and his fellow Marshals do. Identifying with characters' motivations is usually tricky at best especially since its actively suggested throughout the first season that Raylan's white knight act is his way of sublimating his hatred for everyone he cares about ("You are the angriest man I know," Raylan is told at the end of "Fire in the Hole"). As such, characters' problems are more often than not simply reflected and not resolved simply by being associated with semi-similar dilemmas.
What's even more intriguing is that characters problems are often not resolved, but rather, just reflected by other characters. Through a handful of mostly terrific, tense mystery plots laced with barbed black humor, the first few episode of Justified only indirectly address the central love interest between Raylan, Ava (Joelle Carter), Raylan's high school sweetheart turned murderer, and Winona (Natalie Zea), Raylan's ex-wife. Episodes one to five of season one all deal with other couples' doomed romances as a way of anticipating the sparks that only sort of fly by the end of season one. Then again, within those first few episodes, Winona and Raylan and Ava aren't a ménage a trois yet. So when events do finally start moving for Raylan and his love interests, those prior relationships are only distantly in the back of the viewers' minds.
Similarly, symmetry plays a big role in the way episodes six to ten pave the way for Boyd and Raylan's daddy issues. Boyd, on the one hand, makes an incredible conversion to Christianity and thereafter starts actively stepping on his father's toes, and Raylan. Raylan has to deal with his father Arlo (Raymond J. Barry), a has-been grifter that boasts about not having ever shot a man in his life, but doesn't hesitate before using a Louisville Slugger to beat up a heavy in public either. Neither man's relationship with their father is resolved neatly or directly by the season finale and there's no indicator that impending developments will dramatically escalate them either.
Yost and his writers should be very proud that they've gotten away with not having to make the show's melodrama louder, faster, or more directly connected, as that's no mean feat in any serial drama. True, episodes 11 to 13 of Justified are as consistently terrific as they are because by that point the show is no longer teasing out little bits of meaning from proxy relationships with ancillary characters. These episodes directly address the show's main questions of fidelity and power struggles and they do it in a lean and direct way. But they're just as good as standalone episodes like "Riverbrook," the show's second episode and a standalone narrative about an escaped convict (an excellent comedic performance by Chris Ellis) that inadvertently reunites with his ex in a frantic search for buried money. Don't call Justified a stretched-out narrative that only arrives at greatness after a lot of waiting: The waiting is what makes Yost's adaptation so satisfying.
The folks at Sony Pictures Home Entertainment have released high-quality video transfers from this recently aired TV show. There's no noticeable visual wear inherited from the masters they used, which is a major relief as the show prides itself on its clean visuals. The audio soundtrack also has a very nice sense of balance to it, as the sound effects, music, and ancillary background noises are mixed in nicely with the rest of the characters' dialogue.
The DVD set doesn't really have much in the way of essential special features save for four surprisingly well-assembled audio commentary tracks. These commentary tracks are full of fascinating anecdotes about shooting individual scenes in the show and differences between the show and Leonard's original characters. The commentary on "Fire in the Hole" is especially good, full of energy from show developer/writer Graham Yost, actor Nick Searcy, and director Michael Dinner; all three men bring some insights to the table on the commentary track. The rest of the features on the DVD set are mostly tedious behind-the-scenes-type featurettes, like a skimpy one about shooting in Kentucky and another especially dry one with a real-life U.S. Marshal about what it's really like to be a Marshal. None of these featurettes is that interesting, save perhaps for the short tease about what to expect in season two.
Justified's first season is further proof that FX is now a major contender for provider of quality dramas and is not to be missed.

He's Someone's Right Leg In Heaven Now
Those of you old enough to remember the early days of portable phones probably have plenty of memories.
And the memories that don't involve watching Voltron after school probably include getting that phone call from a friend or relative that started with "Hey! You won't believe where I'm calling you from!"
The Philips BTM630/37 Docking Entertainment System opens up this feeling for a whole new generation. With the built-in microphone and Bluetooth compatibility, it's finally possible to make phone calls through a stereo. Welcome to the future, everybody!
When you're not doing that, you'll be able to enjoy all types of music, from iPods to AM/FM radio. If you've got the old style iPod or iPhone, you can charge it up while you listen. If you don't, you can use the 3.5mm jack, There's also a USB port, an SD/MMC card slot, and a CD player that can even rip CDs. No need to boot the computer just to get that one track!
Really, though, there's only one solid reason to buy the Philips BTM630/37 Docking Entertainment System. The two seconds of amazement that will come from saying "No, man, I'll calling you through my stereo system!" That's even better than that time they killed Sven. You were born to die, brother.

What a fantastic first quilt!!!I love the colors and the quilting is wonderful!! :thumbup: :thumbup: It's a winner
Wow, what a response! I never expected that! Thankyou very much to everyone! Yes Chasing Hawk, it is my very first attempt at machine pieced and hand qulited, but I must confess that I have been a sewer all my life, making clothes and soft furnishings. I make rag rugs as well and this led me on to making quilts now that I am semi retired i have more time for such things. About ten years ago I went to a qulting course and we made some sample blocks by the hand method unfortunately they are still just that.....sample blocks, I am hoping with the heip of my quilting buddy I might get to make them up into a quilt who knows!!! Fingers crossed!!
This is so pretty. Wonderful job of piecing and hand quilting.

Mr. Bowie with a Knife:
by J. R. Edmondson
pen and ink illustrations by Joseph Musso.
J.R. Edmondson with Joann Lovas at last year's Alamo Society Meeting.
On 6 March 1999, I attended my first meeting of The Alamo Society, in San Antonio, Texas. Bill Chemerka, president of the Society, introduced the various speakers, but really got my attention when he introduced Jim Bowie! J. R. Edmondson walked out of a back room, bigger than life, dressed in 1830s clothing, and wearing a huge knife in his belt. Mr. Edmondson, aka. Jim Bowie, entranced the entire audience, narrating, first hand, his adventures, including the famous Sandbar fight. When he was finished, there was no doubt in any mind that Jim Bowie was, indeed, "a hard man to kill" as he so ably put it.
J. R. Edmondson is an accomplished actor. James Bowie is his favorite character, and he has portrayed him in four television productions. In addition to being a fine actor, Edmondson is also a writer, with numerous credits in BLACKPOWDER ANNUAL, BLADE, and KNIFE WORLD. In fact, "Mr. Bowie with a Knife" first appeared as a four-part story in the October 1995 through January 1996 editions of KNIFE WORLD.
"Mr. Bowie with a Knife" is a slim volume, but it is packed with information that clarifies the complicated feud leading up to the fight. Mr. Edmondson provides a blow-by-blow description of the famous duel and brawl that made Mr. Bowie notorious, and his knife famous. William C. Davis, in his notes to "Three Roads to the Alamo," calls J. R. Edmondson's description "the best and most complete recent narrative account of the affair."
"Mr. Bowie with a Knife" may not be easy to find (I purchased my copy from Mr. Edmondson, personally) but it is well worth making an effort to acquire, if you have an interest in the early James Bowie.

Naomac Likes The Lomo LC-A2012-12-18 1 2 Share Tweet
Naomac from Australia tells us all about her magical love story with the Lomo L-CA+. Read on after the jump to find out why she prefers it over all the other Lomography Cameras she owns.
"My favourite camera is the Lomo LC-A+ it have always called it the magic camera and is the one I pick to take anywhere above the others.
The reason I love it is, I know I am going to get more good/weird/interesting shots from it no matter what film is inside and in whatever situation than my other cameras I'm not the most knowledgable photographer and I am often known not to forget change the film speed but it doesn't matter with this camera it will create something interesting no matter how much of a hack you are.
I also love adding the Splitzer it is the best $20 I have spent in the Online Shop. I recently went on a holiday to europe and uk and had to decide what camera's to take and I ended up taking my Lomo LC-A+ and Lomo LC-Wide I took both because I couldn't decide between the two and because they are just the best all round cameras, I just wish the Lomo LC-Wide had the grooves to add the splitzer then that would have been my favourite. My friend always say why don't I just use a digital camera and photoshop but there is no way I could ever have created or imagined the positions and outcomes of the double exposures, or the cross processed colours of the slide film this camera creates.
I would recommend the Lomo LC-A+ to anyone really even as a first Lomography camera. My first Lomography cameras were a Fisheye and Supersampler, and when I got back my first shots I was disappointed that they didn't look anything like they great photo's on the lomo site this was probably because I had know Idea about photography but when I got my Lomo LC-A+ the shots that came out were good and got better the more films I sot and this renewed my enthusiasm to continue, experiment and learn more. Even though lomography tempts me with new camera's to buy and I love buying and playing with them I always go back to my Lomo LC-A+ and use it the most.
As I said it's the magic camera."
Are you also in love with the Lomo LC-A+? Hit 'like' below and tell the world about it – We'd also love to hear your comments about the camera in the comments box below!

L'appartement tres sympatique, propre et pratique. En plus, il est tres bien situé (proche du centre, de la station de métro, des petits supermarchés et des restaurants). Lors de mon séjour il faisait autour de 35 degrés, mais a l'appartement il faisait frais. La communication avec la propriétaire était tres facile et agréable. Merci.
Bianca war eine angenehme Gastgeberin, pünktlich, unproblematisch und aufmerksam.
Die Wohnung hat alles, was man benötigt. Sie liegt im Erdgeschoss, die beiden Schlafmöglichkeiten sind 140 cm breit. Die Lage ist sehr zentral, man kommt in 15 Minuten zu Fuß zum Stephandom. Wir würden die Wohnung wieder buchen.

Very nice place and location. Great contact and organisation (useful information written down and left in the apartment - by the way recommended restaurant was fabulous). What else to say... Just visit! :)
Perfect for 2 persons, it is just like what you see in the pictures. The bed is spacious enough for 2. Quiet street, quiet building. Clean and comfortabel.
Guten Tag allerseits!
I'm writing this review with great pleasure since my stay at the cozy apartment of Mrs. Bianca, in Vienna, was simply unforgettable.
The flat is functional and clean and it's situated in a perfect location both for practical reasons - supermarkets, pharmacies, taxis, transport - and for tourist reasons - as a matter of fact, the proximity to a good two subways (U-bahn) guarantees to be able to reach the city center, as well as all the place of cultural interest, in about 10 minutes - .
Last, but not least, Mrs. Bianca is a very kind, available, careful and punctual person: she is a really good host!
In other words, my advice to everyone is to consider absolutely this welcoming apartment and.. let's visit Vienna at least once in a lifetime because Austria is a wonderful Country and Vienna is a wonderful city !!
Bis bald!!
Very good location, close to city center, public transportation, supermarkets and restaurants in close aproximity. The apartment is newly renovated and everything in good condition and clean. The owner was reliable, helpful and flexible in terms of hand over times.
The host cancelled the booking, this review is automated.
Nice spacious living room. Nice decorated. High ceilings. Clean appartment.
On the third floor, no lift.
A good Italian restaurant at 20 m.
We arrived later than planned, but it worked out fine with the owner.
Good couchbed in the living. No curtains against the light in the livingroom.
No airco, just a fan in the bedroom.

Tips to save at the gas dock.
Hard-to-figure prices, empty fuel docks. How do we cut fuel costs?
With marina gas prices topping $4 a gallon in some parts of the state you can save serious bucks by getting top performance from your boat. Here are five tips to help you eke out every last mile from each drop of gas in your boat's fuel tank.
1. Prop your boat right. You should have a propeller that gives optimum overall performance, not simply the best top speed. Make sure your engine revs toward the high end of its maximum rpm range at full throttle, especially if you're doing test runs with a light load. Pick a prop that provides your boat with a good hole shot and gets it on plane quickly. Lugging along with the bow pointing toward the heavens struggling to get on plane is not only unsafe, it burns lots of gas. Finally, don't worry if you aren't getting the absolute maximum speed claimed by the boat maker. They strive for big numbers because it sells boats. You should strive for maximum efficiency because it saves you dollars at the pump.
2. Don't carry extra weight aboard. That means you shouldn't carry 200 gallons of fuel when you know you're only going a few miles to anchor down and fish the bottom. But do carry sufficient fuel for your planned trip plus an extra 20 percent in reserve. Don't carry hundreds of pounds of ice if you are only planning to keep a few fillets for dinner. Only fill your water tank with enough water for the planned trip. A 5-gallon bucket dunked from over the side gets blood and chum off just as well as a freshwater hose. Livewell water should be considered here too—if you are going to use it, fill it; if not, don't.
On occasion you should go through all the gear you have stored aboard and decide if you really need it. Extra stuff has a way of finding a home in the bottom of boat storage compartments and slowly but surely adding pounds to your craft.
3. Load your boat properly. That means distribute whatever movable weight—including people, fish, ice, food and drinks—you are going to carry evenly around the boat. Make sure to load up so your vessel is not heavy in the stern, bow or on one side. Extra stern weight will affect the minimum planing speed of your boat. Too much weight in the rear will make it hard to stay on plane at low speeds. This can be a huge issue in rough seas where a slow speed is needed for safe and comfortable passage. If you're able to stay on plane you'll save a ton of gas compared to plowing along bow-high off plane. Too much weight in the bow can cause it to dig into the sea creating unnecessary drag. Uneven side-to-side weight will require you to use trim tabs (if you've got 'em) to center the load. This adds to water drag and causes extra fuel to be burned.
4. Keep your hull clean. A smooth boat bottom is about the most drag-free configuration you're going to get. So make sure you keep it that way by washing it after use and making sure it is grass- and slime-free after any extended time in the water. If your boat has bottom paint and stays in the water continuously you should have a diver go down at least every three months and brush off any areas of soft growth from the bottom and running gear. In addition, every two years or so you should have the bottom pressure-washed, prepped, and repainted as needed. Most modern-day bottom paints can easily keep hard growth at bay for a couple of years without repainting. On older boats it is wise to check that everything hanging off the bottom of your boat has a use. Old inoperative thru-hull transducers and the like can add significant water drag, decrease speed, and increase fuel consumption.
5. Operate your boat in an efficient manner. Don't be a throttle-jockey. These guys slam the throttle wide open every time they take off and keep it on the pin while they dance across the waves. This may sound fun but it surely is an expensive way to travel. More appropriate throttle usage would be to get the boat moving at a fast idle speed, then push the throttle to about three-quarter position to get on plane. Once you're on the step and accelerating start bringing the throttle back immediately. Pick a cruising speed that is suitable for the conditions and stay at it by leaving the throttle set in that position. If the sea conditions are not a factor in your speed selection, use your boat's most efficient planing speed. This is frequently around 75 percent of your top rpm.
Follow these simple tips and you'll see a lot more fuel left in your tanks at the end of the day. That either means more money in your wallet, or an extra trip without visiting the pumps; both are good things.

Are Destop Websites Obsolete?
ABSOLUTELY NOT! Although mobile technology is growing at a healthy pace, close to 90% of of all global internet usage is represented by desktops. The transition from traditional desktop websites to mobile sites and apps will not happen overnight, especially considering that desktops are still the leading platform for day-to-day business operations.
Desktop websites have the advantage over mobile's fast past growth. Desktop computers have much larger screens, offer more screen display real estate, furthermore navigation and multi-window browsing which are more desirable than what's currently available through tiny little mobile devices.
Also, desktop computers allow a vast number of input devices, such as keyboards, endless USB inputs, and for those who still can't figure out touch screen navigation…a mouse! Leading usability consultant, Jakob Nielsen, points out in his Transmedia Design article, that desktop computer's have 4 additional advantages which will hold for at least another decade:
- Faster Bandwidth
- Hardware Upgrades Such as Faster Processor and More Memory
- Software Maturity
- Printing – The Paperless Office is a Myth; Hardcopies are Still Preferred.
Other important facts are the use of desktop websites for e-commerce, business-to-business (B2B) outreach, and FLASH! Some of the best things on the worldwide web are flash, including games.
Be faithful to desktop website development. Tell your brand's story through transmedia and focus on strengthening the foundation of your brand's online presence through robust backend systems that streamline the process of interactive communication. Transitioning to mobile technology is important, however being apprehensive in thinking it's the only way to go is a bit of a stretch.

Reading with N is one of our favorite activities. He loves books so much that sometimes I will find him sitting alone, reading a book "aloud." The book will usually be upside down and he will be babbling things I can't understand but his determination melts my heart.
We were sent a few board books from BabyLit and I don't know who loves them more: me or him. All of the BabyLit books, written by Jennifer Adams, turn classic literature into easy to read baby books. Alison Oliver joins Adams to bring beautiful illustrations to every page and they are simple enough to hold the attention span of my one year old. As a mama, I find them to be so charming.

From now on we're going to add 10 points for any professional or Division-1 athlete who gets chased down on foot by ordinary, Twinkie-eating police. No one will ever repeat the shame of former Florida State star wideout Peter Warrick, who ran a 4.57 40 before the draft and was chased down from behind by a female cop. But there will be others — even our own Ty Law was chased down by cops in Miami. With the bump, give Strickland 24 points. Not good form, guys, not solid at all.
Last but not least
Speaking of Mr. Law, we have an honorary Ty Law–esque "you can't arrest me, I'm an NFL player" bust, and this one also involves an Indianapolis Colt.
Kenton Keith, a pest of a second-string running back the Colts stole from some hole in Canada, got busted this past week for refusing to leave a club parking lot after closing time. Asked by police to clear out, Keith said he was a member of the Colts and would leave when he was ready.
Turns out they got him ready ahead of time, dragging Keith in on misdemeanor criminal trespassing. Not so tough now, are you, you Peyton Manning lover! Twenty points for the trespassing, 10 more for being a Colt.
When he's not googling "grounded Eagle" and "stumbling Colts," Matt Taibbi writes for Rolling Stone. He can be reached email@example.com.

The fellas and I stopped into El Chupacabra in Phinney Ridge on Saturday for a nice little dude's day out and I hunted down the fish tacos on the menu right way. Before I ordered though, I spotted one of their specials on the chalkboard in front of me and it just so happened to be a grilled and spicy version of their normally beer battered menu tacos. This was one of the best spots of all time, like when Pete Caroll spotted Russell Wilson a few years ago. The fish was grilled up perfect and came with a mixture of slaw and a spicy avocado sauce that was incredibly bangin'. Even served em' up on corn tortillas and cost me a whopping $7.99. Love the atmosphere of this place as well, super laid back and well priced. The Chupacabra is not a myth!
Taste 4/5. Health 4/5. Price 5/5.

We'll break for a delicious lunch prepared by the multi-talented Anita at noon. Be prepared for discussion and socializing at Gary Nabhan and Laurie Monti's home during lunch.
Is anyone looking to share a ride from Tucson to Patagonia? If so, please email Chris Schmidt at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Come early - Borderlands Habitat Restoration Initiative will introduce Patagonia as the pollinator diversity capital of the US and dedicate a new sign. We'll meet at the town's native pollinator garden across from the Gathering Grounds at 8:30am.

Aussie 302 Cleveland heads
Would putting the above heads on my 351 C bring up the horsepower significantly, has anyone here done this before?
I have no reason to take off the 351C heads at the moment but if I do have to for some or other reason I would like to know if the Aussie heads would be good for more compression.
If they were to increase hp then I guess I could dig deep and find a genuine reason for taking off the old heads, I mean, I am sure I could find a little head gasket leak somewhere if I looked really really hard with a magnifying glass, just to sustify any expense that might be incurred.
the aussie heads do work well on a 351c or a SBF but If you don't own a set then you need to consider that they don't come cheap.
Is your motor a 2v or a 4v engine?
do you have domed pistons already?
what is your compression now and how much will the closed chamber heads bring it up to?
How much do you want to spend on the refitment to make these heads work?
how much will it cost to rebuild the aussie heads?
Unless you are racing and you need every advantage then I'd think you will get more performance for less money by reworking what you already have.
Hope this doesn't turn you off the idea,just make you think about it.
good luck
351 is a 2V, I've got the 302 cleveland heads, they have been 'overhauled' and are ready to be put somewhere, they are pretty common round here, seeing as we got mostly Ozzie stuff after 1969. Compression at the moment is about 9.5:1, with the 302 heads I was thinking it might bring it up to about 10.5:1, but thats just a guess on my side, pistons are .20 overbored at the moment but doubt whether they are domed, will have to look at that price wise, but I don't think it will be that expensive, I may even have a contact for a set of domed one, if I can find the guys number amongst the dark maze of info on my hdd.
Refitment wise, well got to still look into that, according to the Falcon site in Oz they will just bolt on, no problems, but I guess the truth of that will be in the actual doing of it.
Thanks for the help.
the clevelend head's even in 2 barrel form have huge port's...and are really for a high rpm motor...my grandpa has built many motor like this...you have to drill and tap some water passages...and than find a boss 302 intake.(not easy)to fit it....there may be a spacer now but im not sure...his motor's had 13-1 pistons..soild roller cam....and ran 10.70's in a full drag car...but turned it 10000 rpm...that was 20 years ago....now there is edelbroke...canfield...brodix...afr...heads that will run circle;s around any aussie head....and still retain the common sb ford intake manifold....
Hmmm forgot about the intake manifold, and those things are like hens teeth here, as are 4 bbl holleys. Back to the drawing board
The Aussie 302 is a short stroke Cleveland engine built in Australia, unlike the Windsor 302s built here in the states. The heads should bolt to your 351 Cleveland with no trouble at all using a standard 351C 2-barrel intake manifold. The closed chamber head should give you the same compression as a 4-barrel Cleveland.
|The Following User Says Thank You to CrashFarmer2 For This Useful Post:
Bjmayberry2 (05-07-2015)
Crashfarmer is correct, a direct swap and it should increase compression enough (with the quench in the combustion chamber too) to increase horses to make the swap worthwhile. A whole lot cheaper than the pop up pistons and the work involved. You can even use the 4 bbl Cleveland intake although you'll have some port mismatch. It would be better to run a 2bbl specifc aftermarket intake. You could probably do the heads and intake for less than the pop up piston swap would be.
I have a performer Intake manifold and a 600cfm 4 bbl Holley on at the moment, so it should be okay to use that, with the 302 C heads?
That's just the right one.
Thanks, just the kind of reply I like to hear

Vic Firth American Classic 5A - Wood Tip Reviews
No one puts more into making drumsticks
Whichever size and weight you like I challenge you to find a better stick. I don't know any other stick maker that cares about their sticks as much as Vic Firth. Each pair are size, weight and tone matched making each pair a completely matched pair.
The finish on Vic Firth sticks are fantastic and will never give you splinters (unlike other manufacturers that make more expensive sticks)
I love vic Firth sticks...you just cant go wrong with them.
Vic Firth American Classic® 5A - Wood Tip
These are really very good sticks. 5A is the perfect size, you will find it hard not to like these sticks!
Vic Firth 5A Drumstick Review
I purchased my Vic Firth 5A drumsticks a few weeks ago now, and they have been absolutely fine. They are just the right length (for me, drumsticks are a very personal thing, so you would have to try them before you buy them) and the perfect width (again, for me). The tips are oval apart from one end, which is cut away for the shoulder of the stick. They are made from Hickory.
I Found that the fulcrum point (the point where the drumstick rests on the index finger while holding it) is where the gap between the Vic Firth logo and the flag
(Vic Firth [-]
here^). The sticks feel very sturdy, and make a nice clear sound when they hit the drum (or cymbal, or cowbell, etc).
All in all, these drumsticks are a great pair, and especially if you are a beginner as these make an excellent first choice.
Thanks for reading this review.

The Language of Flowers: A Novel
This is the international bestseller: now in paperback. The Victorian language of flowers was used to express emotions: honeysuckle for devotion, azaleas for passion, and red roses for love. But for Victoria Jones, it has been more useful in communicating feelings like grief, mistrust and solitude. After a childhood spent in the foster care system, she is unable to get close to anybody, and her only connection to the world is through flowers and their meanings. Now eighteen, Victoria has nowhere to go, and sleeps in a public park, where she plants a small garden of her own. When her talent is discovered by a local florist, she discovers her gift for helping others through the flowers she chooses for them. But it takes meeting a mysterious vendor at the flower market for her to realise what's been missing in her own life, and as she starts to fall for him, she's forced to confront a painful secret from her past, and decide whether it's worth risking everything for a second chance at happiness. "The Language of Flowers" is a heartbreaking and redemptive novel about the meaning of flowers, the meaning of family, and the meaning of love.

News: Tagged as FF Yoga Sans
New Release – FF69
Spring is here and so is the first FontFont Release of 2015, the rather wonderful FF 69!
Read on to find out more about the extensions of type fanatics favorites FF Yoga and FF Mark Ultra, as well new recruits to the type scene, FF Eggo and FF Aad.
New Release: FF Aad
FF Aad is the first typeface to join FontFont from designer Aad van Dommelen, a former type student of Gerrit Noordzij's at the Royal Academy in The Hague. The modern sans serif with its humanist character has horizontal ending terminals which in turn transforms the negative shape between the letters into an open and simpler forms. Resulting in clean and easy-to-read words.
His five weight family, which includes genuine italics, is both neutral and elegant in appearance making it ideal for a multitude of applications particularly when used for corporate purposes such as annual reports, corporate brochures and branding.
New Release: FF Eggo
First up we are proud to introduce FF Eggo. Created by Warsaw based designer Łukasz Dziedzic, FF Eggo came from a request for a script font with multiple weights. Rather than just the classic calligraphy styles, thus allowing the script to have multiple and flexible uses.
Unique characteristics of the font include italics (a real rarity in script form) a thin style reminiscent of a pen or a thin marker, whilst the bolder styles could have been done with a brush or market. However, whilst it takes a step away from a traditional script its uppercase works well both alone and mixed with lowercase characters.
This is a script typeface that promises not to bore you after one use, with its five weights you can use it again and again, keeping the taste but changing the flavour.
Useful for sign lettering to chalkboards, FF Eggo was designed to be flexible, and it really does what it says on the tin.
New Style Extension: FF Mark Ultra
One of our biggest releases of recent years FF Mark by Hannes von Döhren, Christoph Koeberlin and the FontFont Type Department has undergone an extension in the form of an ultra-heavy and strong weight, known as FF Mark Ultra.
Whilst it is based on the characteristics of FF Mark, the new weight FF Mark Ultra required specific designing. When drawing such extreme weights totally different design solutions are required which meant that the new weight has been created independently but retaining references to the original. Thanks to this new addition the FF Mark family the weight spectrum from hairline to the maximum possible, without loosing character.
The loud and proud weight is ideal for perfect for display settings giving maximum impact in big sizes.
New Styles Extension: FF Yoga & FF Yoga Sans
FF Yoga designer Xavier Dupré has taken the popular sans and serif typeface and turned it into quite the superfamily with the addition of Hairline, Thin, Light and Medium weights.
The new members give a fresh look to the family creating further more interesting opportunities for use building on its primary suggested use for book work.
During the process contrast was left in the hairline, which could be argued as not a real hairline, which shows a distinct sensibility for display uses. Whilst a light weight of the regular was created making it suitable for short texts.permalink
Introducing new FF Yoga weights
The ever flexible FF Yoga® adds more strings to its bow with this latest extension.
"…To be really versatile—a type family has to span a wide range of weights," FF Yoga® designer Xavier Dupré explained in a recent interview. The now superfamily builds on the previous versions made primarily for book work, adding Hairline, Thin, Light, and Medium weights.
During the process contrast was left in the hairline, which could be argued as not a real hairline, which shows a distinct sensibility for display uses. Whilst a light weight of the regular was created making it suitable for short texts.
The new members give a fresh look to the family creating further more interesting opportunities for use building on its primary suggested use for book work.permalink

New release: FF51
BERLIN, GERMANY, December 2009 – FSI FontShop International announced the latest additions to its award-winning FontFont® typeface library.
The new FontFonts
Xavier Dupré's FF Yoga family is a type system conceived to work for newspapers and magazines thanks to its strong personality and good legibility. The Serif weights with their sturdy serifs are a good choice for body text, but they also serve as an original headline face with their subtly chiseled counters inspired by blackletters. FF Yoga mixes the harshness of blackletters with the balanced rhythm and round shapes of the Garalde typefaces. FF Yoga Sans is a contemporary alternative to Gill Sans and a sober companion to Yoga Serif.
FF Mister K Dingbats are the newcomers to Julia Sysmäläinen's FF Mister K family, a script typeface based on Franz Kafka's manuscripts. It started with Finnish illustrator Oili Kokkonen creating some pretty funny cartoon characters using letterforms of FF Mister K Regular. Soon after, the design of almost 600 pictograms was on its way. All are based on glyph parts of the Regular with which they make a very good match.read more

Date of Stay: July, 2010
At best, this is an average site. They have Wi-Fi but only for the first few sites. The bathrooms are dirty and very rough. It is a beautiful location but the campground needs a major overhaul.
Date of Stay: July, 2010
Amazing campground!! We actually drove 2 1/2 hours just to return to this site. Tons of staff and every amenity available, even free breakfast. They have amazingly soft mineral water showers, exceptionally clean sites, and, a giant dog run (desert acreage behind site). Best place I have ever stayed, it is run like a hotel.
Date of Stay: July, 2009
This park was OK, the sites were level and the bathrooms were clean. But, it wasn't luxurious, just rocks.

Updated: Humans and Their Universes HTML version
phenomenon that theorists first predicted in 2005 (this time delay is rather confusing since
James Clerk Maxwell showed that light is an electromagnetic disturbance approx. 140
years ago). In the event of the universe having an underlying electronic foundation
(hopefully, my summary will make it clear that this must be so – also … an electronic
universe is a necessary precursor to scientific fulfilment of Star Trek's "magic" which
becomes clear as these steps are read), it would be composed of "silicon chip- and
transistor- scales" and the Optical Force would not be restricted to microscopic scales but
could operate universally. Tang proposes that the optical force could be exploited in
telecommunications. For example, switches based on the optical force could be used to
speed up the routing of light signals in fibre-optic cables, and optical oscillators could
improve cell phone signal processing.
2) If all forms of EM (electromagnetic) radiation can attract/repel, radio waves will also
cause communication revolution e.g. with the Internet and mobile (cell) phones. I
anticipate that there may be no more overexposure to ultraviolet or X-rays.
3) In agreement with the wave-particle duality of quantum mechanics, EM waves have
particle-like properties (more noticeable at high frequencies) so cosmic rays (actually
particles) are sometimes listed on the EM spectrum beyond its highest frequency of
gamma rays.
4) If cosmic rays are made to repel, astronauts going to Mars or another star or galaxy
would be safe from potentially deadly radiation.
5) And if all particles in the body can be made to attract or repel as necessary, doctors will
have new ways of restoring patients to health.
6) From 1929 til his death in 1955, Einstein worked on his Unified Field Theory with the
aim of uniting electromagnetism and gravitation. Future achievement of this means warps
of space (gravity, according to General Relativity) between spaceships/stars could be
attracted together, thereby eliminating distance. And "warp drive" would not only come to
life in future science/technology ... it would be improved tremendously, almost beyond
imagination. This reminds me of the 1994 proposal by Mexican physicist Miguel Alcubierre
of a method of stretching space in a wave which would in theory cause the fabric of space
ahead of a spacecraft to contract and the space behind it to expand. Therefore, the ship
would be carried along in a warp bubble like a person being transported on an escalator,
reaching its destination faster than a light beam restricted to travelling outside the warp
bubble. There are no practical known methods to warp space – however, this extension of
the Yale demonstration in electrical engineering may provide one.
7) Since Relativity says space and time can never exist separately, warps in space are
actually warps in space-time. Eliminating distances in space also means "distances"
between both future and past times are eliminated - and time travel becomes reality. This
is foreseen by the Enterprise time-travelling back to 20th-century Earth in the 1986 movie
"Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home" and by Star Trek's "subspace communications". Doing
away with distances in space and time also opens the door to Star Trek-like teleportation.
Teleportation wouldn't involve reproducing the original and there would be no need to
destroy the original body – we would "simply" be here one moment, and there the next

Will these tires/rims be ok on an E46 (from either a Z or 5 series)
My stock 1999 328i has the factor sport suspension and with 17in rims.
I am looking to pick up the folowing set of rims/tires (I believe they are from a 540i). Will I be able to do this?
The front rims have the number 6760678-13 (8Jx18eh2) and the rear rims have number 6760681-13 (8 1/2Jx18eh2). The front tires are ultra high performance Yokohama Advan S.4. 225/40R18 tires. The rear tires are ultra high performance Yokohama Advan S.4. 255/35R18 tires
You will need hub centering rings at the least and possibly spacers.
Unfortunately the offsets on the 5 Series will not be a direct bolt-on fitment for an E46. Since they do run low offset, fender modification, a more narrower tire may be needed, and hub rings.

Gillard's Labor Support Slips 5 Months From Election, Poll ShowsMichael Heath
Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard's government slipped further behind the opposition in an opinion poll less than five months from an election, as voters opposed a plan to curb tax concessions on retirement savings.
Support for the Labor government slid 2 percentage points to 29 percent, the weakest since June 2012, compared with 49 percent for the Tony Abbott-led opposition, a Nielsen survey published in Fairfax newspapers today showed. On a two-party preferred basis, Abbott's Liberal-National coalition led the government 57 percent to 43 percent. Labor won 50.1 percent of the vote at the 2010 election to form a minority government.
Gillard traveled to China last week for talks with the new leadership of Australia's biggest trading partner. Earlier in the month, the government announced A$900 million ($950 million) in savings over four years by cutting tax breaks for the wealthy as it bids to plug a budget shortfall. Even as the government said changes to taxation of pension savings impact just 16,000 individuals, the poll showed 52 percent of voters opposed them.
Abbott leads Gillard 50 percent to 42 percent as preferred prime minister, the Nielsen poll showed. The prime minister in January set an election for Sept. 14 and has struggled since then, culminating in a ballot for the Labor leadership on March 21 that her predecessor, Kevin Rudd, chose not to contest.
Rudd, who declared afterward that he would never challenge for the leadership again, was preferred Labor leader with 57 percent of survey respondents, down from 62 percent in March, today's poll showed. Gillard's support versus Rudd rose to 35 percent from 31 percent, it showed.

'How we hated our coffee mugs! And our mouse pads, our desk clocks, our daily calendars, all the contents of our desk drawers. Even the photos of our loved ones taped to our computer monitors for uplift and support turned to cloying reminders of time served ...' Welcome to the world of Joshua Ferris' dazzlingly acute, brilliantly original, agonizingly funny novel. The dotcom bubble has just burst on an advertising agency on Chicago's Magnificent Mile. Employees shuffle slowly up the steps towards the revolving doors, afraid of what is waiting to greet them inside their cubicles ..."Then We Came to the End" is about how we spend our days and too many of our nights. It is about being away from friends and family, about sharing a stretch of stained carpet with a group of strangers we call colleagues. It is about sitting all morning next to someone you deliberately cross the road to avoid at lunchtime. Joshua Ferris' fabulous novel is the story of your life, and mine. It is the story of our times.

Are you thinking of hiring movers to move your belongings to your new home? Or are you counting on friends and family to give you a hand?
No matter your choice, there are certain insurance questions you need to ask.
Have you decided to hire professional movers to help you move? Choose your movers with care. And make sure the moving company has all the insurance coverage needed to protect your property.
Don't hesitate to ask them for references as well as a copy of their insurance policy. If your possessions are lost or damaged, you'll be reimbursed under the moving company's insurance policy.
You're going to ask family or friends to help you move, so that you can save some money. You should know that your home insurance policy provides civil liability coverage should you be held liable if someone is injured or suffers material damage. Your home insurance policy also provides compensation for someone who could be injured while helping you.
What if you decide to rent a van and move yourself? Make sure you're insured under the rental contract. If you already have an automobile insurance policy, you can have endorsement 27, which will protect you against any damage you may cause to a vehicle you don't own.
And don't forget to let your insurer know what kind of vehicle you're going to rent. The endorsement may not cover the rental of larger vans.
This endorsement provides coverage should you damage a vehicle that you've borrowed or rented in Canada or the United States. The coverage offered is often the same as that for your own vehicle. Most of the time, it's more advantageous than the insurance offered by the car rental company.
It's important to review your home insurance policy and to list the names of all co-tenants on the insurance policy so that everyone can take advantage of the coverage. Learn More

Program represents bare minimum.
First needs a quick search box, live preview ...as I type. Esc to cancel.
Hide "request" for money. Can be on author's page, not here.
Better UI, really better. Not ugly icons.
I supose that program of this type has to offer list of all installed applications and offer those whitch can open required file (as this is well known).
Posibility resize window and remember its size.
Reviewing 1.10 (Feb 21, 2013)
I want to remark that Windows 8 is supported as stated from the Website.
This is a great program that let us manage the myriad of possible file associations that can occur on our system without the needs to tweak the registry. We can also remove unused or wrong programs from the openwith list. Really a must have. Tested also on Windows 8, it works flawlessly.
Reviewing 1.00 (Jan 16, 2012)
Could have been nice if it did as the regular rightclick menu OPEN WITH and added the manually selected programs, not in the list, to the filetype i have choosen to open with a program. It should need some work before i replace the standard dialogue.

The gilded opulence of a Buenos Aires ballroom, the hidden tunnels beneath Jerusalem's Wailing Wall, and the cavernous innards of the biggest gasometers in Europe are some of the off-limits sites that can be glimpsed around the world this autumn, thanks to the growing phenomenon of the Open House weekend.

Most ills in this world (and we know there isn't a shortage of them) require massive change on systematic and ideological levels. Indeed, it is a capacity—and many say, a responsibility—of design to address the many pressing problems facing the world today.
