According to FDA's Guzewich, bleach and commercial kitchen cleaning agents are the best sanitizers--provided they're diluted according to product directions. They're the most effective at getting rid of bacteria. Hot water and soap does a good job, too, but may not kill all strains of bacteria. Water alone may get rid of visible dirt, but not bacteria.
Also, be sure to keep dishcloths clean because, when wet, they can harbor bacteria and may promote their growth.

Dr. Paul Carroll
One of the best vets in Dallas. He will work with you on total care for your pet, and combines intellectual curiosity with compassion. Not part of a large group he runs his own practice, which allows a relationship to be established and thus a consistent approach to your pets needs. I give him 5 paws, and a WOOF!

There is a small pencil eraser size hole in the fabric on the drivers seat outside bolster (should close up fine with some stitching) but are otherwise perfect shape. They will come with the stock headrests, or for an extra $80 I can throw in 5 black cloth beetle headrests. Looking to get $400 for fronts and rears.

For those of you who have read my posts, you know that my future wife is also a gun nut, so far as to even VERBALLY express her love for the smell of gun powder as we walk into the range.
Well I have plenty of welding experience and have taught her basic mig and stick welding for her derby car racing hobby.
Shes now full tilt into wanting to build her own gun. Shes set her "sights" on the Nock Volley rifle and wants to build one from a kit doing her own finishing and welding and everything..
She plans to enroll in a welding course at the local community college before taking on this task.
For those of you not knowing this is SEVEN barrels of .52 and typically fired around 40 grains.
I assume it's like a black powder gun?????
Anyone have experience with this kit? Good??? bad??
HELP! Shes been over run by the gun bug!

LONDON, January 10, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- 2013 brings new worries for many across the country waking up to their New Year financial hangover. January sales have been a huge success, however, consumer group Which? have reported that over 46% of the population paid for Christmas on credit and things are only set to get worse in 2013 after many embarked on spending sprees in the January sales, resulting in Christmas debts that will not be paid off by next year. The gloomy start to the year was anticipated by emotional support organisation Samaritans who in January receive more calls about financial worries than at any other time of the year. Rachel Kirby-Rider, executive director of fundraising at the charity says; 'Often there are things that people haven't addressed, or didn't want to address, before Christmas. They become very relevant when the credit card bills come in' 'A lot of people feel that things should be better in the New Year - and then when they're not, they start to worry' Not everyone is gloomy however, recent research conducted by IVA.co.uk has found that those in an IVA or other types of debt management plans are more positive about their ability to become debt free than those who are struggling on their own. The survey revealed that participants who are currently on an IVA or have completed one in the past gave very encouraging answers when asked to score their IVA. The survey asked;

"This came nicely packaged in a protective little cloth bag. The ornament is so pretty especially when back lit with Christmas lights on the tree. The quality and beauty of this ornament get it noticed by everyone! Will probably buy more of these in the future."
"I ordered special tags for branding a gift from a very good client who sends gift baskets across the US every year. I wanted to do something special, so I ordered tags from Tiny Prints and had them delivered to my apartment. Being the Christmas Season... FedEx delivered a week early. When I checked the delivery status, I found they had already been delivered the day after Thanksgiving.I checked around and deduced they had been pinched by some crook. I called Customer Service, they expedited printing and the Tags arrived yesterday. The Rep was so friendly and realized how upset I was that the package was missing. I am glad she realized the importance of the product I had ordered and took complete control of the situation. I am about to place a second order through Tiny Prints because I am so pleased with the quality of product along with the superb customer service I received."
"This card design allowed me to have a great quality card timed perfectly combining our NEW home address & Holiday Greetings. VERY pleased with the ease in which I was able to personalize the cards, the quality/value and the swift delivery allowing me to get the cards our early this year! will be ordering in the future."
"I wanted to mark my son's first Christmas married,and I used a picture from his November wedding to make such a beautiful ornament! I can't wait to give it to him and his new wife!"
"Absolutely love how our custom ornament turned out! We got married in Dec of 2012 so I used a wedding photo and was able to add 'Est. 2012' for a personalized touch. It will be a nice keepsake for years to come!"

Canada Law
Ask a Canada Law Question, Get an Answer ASAP!
Yes, she works for the bank that she owes money. When the business closed, they contacted her and asked her to come for an interview because of her customer skills. She works in the Call Centre for the bank and has since she lost her business which was in 2010. The first and only letter sent from the bank was apparently in September 2011 which I now have a copy. It is only a letter demanding payment. so yes she is an employee. I was one of the owners and I am still waiting for my copy which apparently was sent to my home address but never received.
No, she did not know about it. They just did it - no notice or anything. When it happened she contacted her HR department and they advised that no garnish or anything was received by them.
They have an internal messaging system called "sametime". She even asked the guy why he did not contact her on that. He did not answer. I personally think that he is a clerk that thought he could do what he wanted and that is why I am looking for information on the procedures of debt collection. I think he did it because he found out that she worked for the Bank. He works in Ontario and probably did not know that she was with the Call Centre in Halifax. It has been 3 years and quite a while since September 2011.
Also My daughter is a single parent with an eight year old child to support. It just wasn't properly done.
Before we finish, I have a couple of questions. I need to go out also so I may be a couple of hours before I reply.
One of the questions would be the original debt was a numbered company and I realize that she could be held responsible but it was a different bank account. Why would they not have to take some procedure before going into a personal bank account that they made her open when she was hired there. She is not allowed to have her pay go into a different bank other than the Bankof Nova Scotia.
Who is this Employment Standard Branch. Is it part of the government of nova scotia?
Would you suggest that we personally write a letter to the VP of the Bank or that department or her Human Resource department and if we do, would she be in danger of losing her job. They could of called her. I could see if theymade an arrangement of some sort. Going forward, they cannot do anything as they have the bankruptcy order.

Several new trailers rolled out of the Tokyo Game Show this week: here are the highlights!
Several new trailers rolled out of the Tokyo Game Show this week: here are the highlights!
Square Enix has announced that their upcoming RPG, Final Fantasy XV, will be released in 2016; a more exact timeframe is expected to be revealed next March. Make sure to catch the upcoming Active Time Report during September's Tokyo Game Show for more details on Luna and Regis, as well as information about the fishing minigame and chocobo-related features.
It's been almost two years since I wrote my review of Square Enix's MMO, Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn. I was a big fan of what they'd created, especially compared to the mess that was v1.0. I even wrote a column about the game for over a year. Since that initial release, numerous patches came out, bringing with them new instances, Hard mode dungeons and Hard/Extreme trials, side-story quest chains like the Hildibrand saga, and of course the continuation of FFXIV's excellent main story questline. Fast forward to a month ago when FFXIV releases their first expansion, Heavensward. This expansion brought with it an expanded level cap of 60, three new jobs, new zones, new instances/trials, and the continuation of that epic main story. For the last month I've been put in hours upon hours into the world of Eorzea and now I'm finally ready to give my opinion.
As of this afternoon our E3 coverage is now complete! Here's a list of everything we covered from the event.
Lindsay Geektron and Mike Bailey, along with the Gamer Escape staff, sat down with Naoki Yoshida at E3 last week to discuss the now-released Heavensward expansion for Final Fantasy XIV.
Translations have been provided by Gamer Escape.
E3 is always a hectic time filled with announcements, with many new reveals and updated information unleashed over a flurry of press conferences. We've collected our conference recaps into one spot for you to catch up on anything you may have missed!
Welcome to Day 2 of E3 coverage here on ZAM!
Our second event today (2 of 3) was from Square Enix. It was a quieter, more formal event. Let's take a look.

My husband's Fusion was somewhat terrifying to drive during nighttime storms. The wipers were already part of the problem, but the biggest problem was the cruddy supply of light from the low beams. These were a whole lot cheaper than converting to HID's, and we're both pleasantly surprised what a difference it makes in the output of light now that it's all white light. He feels a lot more confident driving with these and the new Bosch wipers we bought from this site as well.

Dancing That's Totally D'Lish
It's 2010. We thought we'd have flying cars and jet packs. We do not. But, what we do have is burlesque. Is that an even trade? Some think so. If your last hours of 2009 weren't seductive enough, you get another chance at The Crystal Palace Burlesque Revue, La Divina Productions' first burlesque spectacular of the new decade. Thanks to professionals like Dita von Teese, burlesque is as popular now as it was in the days of Bettie Page and the early pin-up scene. There's an entire subculture devoted to it, including photo shoots, dancing classes, clothing and beauty products, and elaborate productions. In other words, with shows like The Crystal Palace Burlesque Revue, the retro art form moves into 2010 alive and kicking (and shimmying and winking) with no jet packs necessary. Come out and see for yourself when the award-winning Catherine D'Lish joins Angela Ryan, Athena Fatale, Ginger Valentine and other fantastic femmes onstage to bump, grind and seduce audience members--in a totally tasteful way, of course. The Crystal Palace Burlesque Revue is at 9:30 p.m., January 23 at the Lakewood Theater, 1827 Abrams Way. Doors open at 8 p.m. Tickets are $15 to $30. Call 214-821-7469 or visit ladivinaburlesque.com.

St. Augustine, FL (The Weekly Vice) - James Lee Lyons, a 52-year-old registered sex offender, was jailed Monday after he allegedly raped his neighbor's dog.
According to the St. Johns County Sheriff's Office, a man walked into a Sheriff's Office outpost Monday stating that he wished to press charges after learning that one of his dogs had been sexually abused by a next-door neighbor.
Investigators say the man explained that he attempted to bring his two dogs inside the house last Saturday after noticing that it was beginning to storm outside.
When one of the dogs failed to come to the house, he checked around his yard and a nearby shed to no avail.
Moments later, Lyons was seen walking out of the same shed with the lost dog in his arms. Lyons told his neighbor that he found the dog in the shed, however the neighbor found the story odd since he had just looked inside the shed a few moments earlier.
Throughout the day, the man noticed that the formerly-missing dog walked like it had been injured and acted withdrawn. The man took his pet to a local vet who confirmed that the animal had been injured in a manner that would be consistent with sexual abuse or bestiality (injured rectum).
The Sheriff's Office Special Victim's Unit investigated the case and arrested Lyons as a result.
Lyons was booked into jail and charged with animal cruelty and sexual activity involving an animal. His bond has been set at $11,000.
Lyons was convicted in 1998 on charges of attempted sexual battery on a child and sexual act with a child while in a familial role.
According to state records, he was also charged and convicted of sexual battery/coercion of a child by an adult in 2007.

Yes, crud can stop any pump, but that applies to the electric ones too, so strum boxes are needed with a mesh that only allows acceptable sized dirt through. Since the raw water pump already has a strainer, adding a strum box to the "emergency inlet" plus a Y-valve is a fairly competitive way of increasing the time before the life raft starts looking attractive.

I've seen more boats have problems due to water cooling issues, and don't really see the need to risk it on a boat that is already having some issues. If the engine continues to run, you can run as many large electric bilge pumps as you need...but as soon as the engine fails... you're down to your batteries and whatever manual bilge pumps you have...
It is really a personal choice, but I think that having a small bilge pump for the day-to-day stuff, and one or two large bilge pumps for emergency use, that have a higher float switch than the day-to-day pump does makes far more sense. As long as you have diesel and can keep the motor running, you'll have electricity to keep the pumps going. If you use the raw-water cooling as part of the pumping solution and it gets blocked with crud... then you're down a pump, but also have lost most of your electrical generation capacity, and possibly the ability to move your boat toward safety...since the diesel is also powering the prop...
A small hole in the bottom of a boat, say 3' below the waterline because of a grounding, even if it is only an 2" in diameter will let in 136 GPM... Given that most bilge pumps are rated at GPH, not GPM, the largest 12V bilge pump I've been able to spec out rates at 3000 GPH, or 50GPM, which would require three of them to stay ahead of a small 2" hole. That is an optimistic estimate as well, since the pumps are rated at 0' of head, and in this case, we'd have at least 3' of head, to get the water out of the bilge and up past the waterline. I don't believe a raw water cooling system runs at 50 GPM, given the small diameter of most of the tubing and passages in it.

|SD- I have seen a lot of articles in the yachting press recommending the use of the raw water pump in emergencies (via a Y-valve between the inlet seacock and the strainer). They claim the pump actually has a very large capacity - compared to the average bilgepump. I was thinking of adding the facility together with a strum box. Comparing the impeller sizes on my boat, the raw water pump certainly has more volume, its on the end of the diesel pump drive shaft, so it runs at engine rpm. Snag is, the route the raw water takes is tortuous, so the pump sees a lot of back pressure. I guess I should measure it; to see how long does each pump take to empty a bucket of water.
Given how little water the engine pumps, I would hesitate doing that. Also, is it worth endangering the engine in an emergency, by possibly getting bilge crud in the cooling system. That would make a bad situation worse.
Personally I use a dual pump set up like what has been described above, except for boats over 50' where I might consider going with 3. The only thing I would add is that FOR EMERGENCY PURPOSES ONLY it can be very usefull to be able to use the engine intake as a bilge pump. I have a selector switch on my boat for this purpose, and while I have never used it, the one time i did something like this on a raceboat that was damaged, it really helped out.
The problem with having a suction line on a pump mounted above it is that "lift" is now entered into the equation. A centrifugal pump has a theoretical lift capability of 25 feet. Any amount of suction lift reduces the capability of the pump. BTW, an elbo located in that suction line adds the equivalent of 5' of lift. Now head is a different matter. The centrifugal pump can "push" water much more effectively than it can pull or lift it. Most are, in fact, designed to have a certain amount of head pressure against discharge. A sometimes easy way to pick up prime on a centrifugal that may be air-bound is to throttle the discharge down to almost closed until pumping is acheived.
The chief advantage to centrifugal pumps is volume pumped. A secondary is simple, trouble free, rotational motion design. A centrifugal designed for pumping water with debri should have open, versus closed, impellers. The slight loss of pump capacity will be offset by the reduction in impeller fouling. Sewage ejection pumps are frequently of this design.
The problem with diaphram, and all "positive displacement" pumps, is capacity. For a given size, and given size prime mover, we cannot get the volume out of a positive displacement pump that we can out of a centrifugal pump. With this trade-off in mind, it may make good sense to mount the positive displacement pump at the lowest point in the bilge where it can perform a "stripping" function, while mounting the high capacity centrifugal higher where it will be able to do it's job without as much risk of fouling impellers. Coincidently, that is roughly how you pipe up an oil tanker for discharge. The other problem with positive displacement pumps, be they diaphram, piston, or gear, is maintenance. These pumps by the nature of their design, wear more. Most of them involve reciprocating components and that always means friction and wear.
Ironically, I just saw the first "Wilden" pump I've seen in a number of years-my auto mechanic has one for pumping oil. Wilden is the world class leader in air-powered diaphram pumps. NO merchant ship is without one, for a variety of uses. They come in all sizes-my mechanics was about 10" square. The size seen on merchant ships are usually the size of a portable generator. The pumps are made of aluminum and thus light and portable. It is child's play to rebuild one and parts are available world-wide. You do need air to power one though, which brings me to my point. In the post mentioned earlier, the surveyor mentioned having a bilge pump running off the engine. I did not have time to read his idea thoroughly, but it occured to me that it might be easier to mount a compressor on the engine-similar to a Peterbilt. With a supply of air you could run a Wilden pump anywhere-in your bilge, in the bilge of the boat along side, in your dingy, hell you could lower it over the side and use it for wash-down if you wanted to get crazy. Wilden does make attachments, via cam-lock fittings, to fit a suction line on at the strainer box, in essence making a water shop-vac out of it. Larger boats could use this to good effect. Compressor draw on the engine would be the limiting factor I suspect. Giulietta could also then use a pneumatic wrench instead of his electric winch buddy!
The best line check valves I know of are made by Maas-Midwest and available in the sizes required. They generally come threaded female, each end-but male x female are probably available. They are an all bronze spring check (no plastic) and are of superior construction and reliability. I recommend an oversized check valve for bilge application due to the possibility of small stuff/line debri. If discharge is 1", I'd go 1-1/4" on the line check. I advocate mounting the check valve as close to the pump as possible. If the hose above the check is already full of water it will aid in "loading" the impeller via head pressure when the pump kicks in. It will also be much more effective at stopping water running back through the pump into the bilge. Mounted at the through-hull the water in the line will slowly seep back through the pump and into the bilge-although it will not allow water from the through hull to pass. The valves are more effective against head pressure than thay are against vacuum on the other side.
That's probably enough to provoke comment-and I haven't even gotten to the employment of ejector pumps(probably not what you may think they are), but I think they'd be of limited use on a boat. Although the USCG still requires their carriage on merchant ships.
Folks, I have looked at a nice site which included an article on bilge pumps http://www.yachtsurvey.com/maitenance.htm. Many of the tips you have shared here I see there too.
Happy Sailing.

text: Concentrate on the caliber you can use the best and be more accurate with. Thats the size that will protect you. I don't play the "my bullet is bigger than yours" game. If you have a .45 and can't control it, what good is it? The best SD caliber for any individual is the one they can shoot the best and be the most accurate with. Some people can be accurate with many different calibers some maybe only one. But what ever you do choose, practice with it often, it's not like riding a bicycle, with guns you always need to practice not only shooting them but keeping them clean and in good mechanical shape. Just my 2 cents.

Ivory (original 1988; edition 1989)
by Mike Resnick
Work details
Ivory by Mike Resnick (1988)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Ivory is a Science Fiction tale spanning millennia with some fantasy trappings. The science fiction parts include extraterrestrial aliens and human colonies spanning the galaxy. The fantasy aspect includes a long dead prophetic shaman, vague mystical abilities, and the ghost of an immense elephant.
Duncan Rojas, an almost totally emotionless and asocial researcher whose day job is to authenticate hunting trophies, is hired by Bukoba Mandaka, the last member of the Maasai tribe to locate a pair of 7,000 year old elephant tusks. Through flashbacks to events uncovered by Rojas using an extremely sophisticated computer, the history of the tusks is revealed although the reason Mandaka wants them is not until near the end of the story.
I found this to be an imaginative and engaging story. The premise is certainly different although the mix of science fiction and fantasy seemed a bit awkward to me. I especially had a hard time with the elephant spirit, which is never really explained, other than it is the ghost of an immense and very intelligent elephant who wants its tusks back. What it really is, how it came to be, or what it means is only vaguely alluded to. The characters are interestingly quirky but do not provoke much in the way of empathy. The two main characters are about as emotionless as the computer Rojas used for his research. They are both compulsively driven to accomplish their mission, Rojas by choice and Mandaka because of his belief that he has no choice but neither is engagingly human.
The book is well written and compelling. Once the mystery of the tusks is presented, you want to find out what happened to them and some of the flashbacks, almost short stories in themselves, are quite enjoyable.
In the far future, the last Maasai hires the best researcher, the cold Rojas, to find the tusks of the Kilimanjaro Elephant. Rojas's search takes him from the nineteenth century on Earth to the rest of the galaxy. As he searches, he uncovers past tragedies, treachery, and always, another clue to the tusks. At last, Rojas and Mandaka reach the end of their quest. It's well written, but I never felt a pull to read it. It is not an engrossing work.
What I love about Mike Resnick, among other things, is his non-pretentious prose style. He doesn't write like he has a dictionary out to look up the fanciest words for saying everything in an attempt to impress you. Instead, he just finds the right words to tell the story. So you don't need to read his books with a dictionary next to you either, and his books work for readers of all ages.This book, one of several inspired by his love of and travels through Africa, is the story of Duncan Rojas and Bukoba Mandanka and the tusks of the Kilimanjaro Elephant, the largest to ever exist. Rojas, a researcher for Braxton's Records of Big Game, is hired by Mandaka, the last living Masaai, to find the tusks which he believes are the secret to his people's lost power. While he won't explain why he needs them, he is paying handsomely, and Rojas cannot resist a good mystery.As he researches the tusks with the help of his trusty computer, Rojas learns the stories of various people and aliens who have possessed them over time. The tusks have quite a colorful history, as does the elephant himself, and the stories are fascinating and rich with characters, world building, history and solid plotting.The chapters run long, something I myself am guilty of, but that's because each chapter contains a historical story and a section about Rojas' research in the present as he learns the history.In the end, the story raises powerful questions about tradition, faith, and mythology. As is typical of Resnick, the conclusion leaves us to provide our own answers, and there is certainly a lot to think about which resonates with you long after the book has been closed.A not to be missed, rich story. Thoroughly enjoyable and compelling. For what it's worth...
Thousands of years in the future, the last Maasai has paid a researcher to find the tusks of the Kilimanjaro Elephant, killed in the last years of the 19th century. The tusks have changed hands many times over the milleniums, and thus this story jumps back and forth and all throughout the galaxy as Rojas, our dogged researcher, tracks them down. Most of the characters are colorful and intriguing - Resnick's opinion is that humankind will stay stubbornly the same even as our technology changes and advances. Both adventurous and lyrical.

I came upon a news website written in Cebuano called Superbalita Cebu. It was the first time I read news in Cebuano language, and reading straight Filipino dialect on the Net feels like home. Well, close to home even though Davao is my hometown. I still consider Cebu as my home too, my 2nd home. 🙂
This is the local page news on both online and hard newspaper Sun Star Cebu. Sun Star Cebu Network Online is a network of Philippine newspapers on the World Wide Web.
Superbalita Cebu is one section of Sun Star Cebu where Cebuanos, mostly those who don't have the privilege to understand English news, can read it in direct Cebuano language for quick-and-easy reading. Most specially made also for those who prefer to read the Cebu news in Cebuano or Visayan dialect.
This online newspaper delivers straight reportage from politics, business, opinion, sports, lifestyle and entertainment. So, major newspapers in the country–besides Sun Star—like Manila Bulletin and Philippine Daily Inquirer that have Cebu stories are sourced in Superbalita Cebu.
The site even has a special section which encourages users to send their unique stories and photos about the goings-on in Cebu. This section is specially built for ordinary citizens to express their sentiments through images that the government should take notice. All they need to do is send their original photos to the site along with other log-in details.
The photos sent by users are reviewed. The site does not wholly tolerate the abuse of the free reporting. The most excellent photo or text report will be published in SunStar community newspapers on the Net.
A virtual newspaper is also provided through a website called pressdiplay.com. Though you can only be able to view the virtual newspaper by registering on this site, and this requires you to pay $0.99 per issue.
Once you're subscribed you can then view and read the news just like when you're reading a hard newspaper copy. On screen you can navigate through a table of contents or jump to a certain page or section of a newspaper.
So, all the news here are raw and fresh—with responsible journalism. News about Cebu you read or hear from PDI (Philippine Daily Inquirer), GMA, ABS-CBN, or even international news like BBC and CNN are sourced in Superbalita Cebu. Although, of course, the most controversial and important news about Cebu that people should know about are the only ones that gain publicity in major press and media companies, local and international.
What better news about Cebu than that?

It's a pity that I don't understand the language.
Thanks for dropping at my CC post. I captured the butterfly with my pocket digital camera 🙂
Good for you Noy to find an online newspaper of your own language. You inspired me to find an online newspaper of my own language too. 🙂

I believe Aleix has proved his worth simply by beating tech3 and satelite honda fairly consistantly this season, not to mention being 2 times CRT champ. And there were some very notable riders in the CRT class... He is factory rider material IMO. Reply Report abuse 14 agree 2 disagree
