Redmond Bath Salt comes from an ancient sea bed deposit dating back thousands of years. The deposit has been tucked away, protected from modern-day pollution. We extract this salt from deep within the earth, and bring it to you in its pure, natural state-without any additives, chemicals, or heat processing. The result is an all natural sea salt, rich in trace minerals.
In Redmond Bath Salt you will find more than 50 natural trace minerals which provide healing properties for the skin and body. Toxins are released from the body into the bath water through osmosis, while trace minerals from the sea salt are absorbed through the skin. Redmond Bath Salt will leave some natural sediment on the bottom of the tub.
Use Redmond Bath Salt to ease away stress in the mind and body.
Suggested Use
Pour 1/2 cup or desired amount into running bath water, sit back, and relax.
Approximately 4 baths per container.
Ancient sea salt (unrefined). No additives

From #TeamKeMUNyeri
To our beloved students,
We would like to wish you the very best as you sit for your end-of-trimester exams. Remember, this is a culmination of both your efforts and those of your teachers' as the Good Book aptly says in 1 Corinthians 3:8:
"The man who plants and the man who waters have one purpose, and each will be rewarded according to his own labor."
Your teachers planted the seeds of knowledge in your minds, but it was up to you to water and nurture them all trimester-long until they bore fruit.
Now the time to evaluate how much work you put in has come. Do not let them down, but most of all, don't let yourself down.
God bless you all and remember to read the instructions! 🙂

What makes this urgent?
Hello all,
i just wanna ask one question about DNS Attacks
I Saw many videos about this but all of these videos are just explained in the local network, I mean you could dns_spoof on your local network (your neighbors)
but how can we do it in the all internet network ?
and everybody open the spoofed site will see your page ?
What makes this urgent?
A third party security audit is the IT equivalent of a colonoscopy. It's long, intrusive, very uncomfortable, and when it's done, you'll have seen things you really didn't want to see, and you'll never forget that you've had one.
What the hell is urget??
Of course, if you really wanted to have some fun, go to Wal-Mart late at night and ask the greeter if they could help you find trashbags, roll of carpet, rope, quicklime, clorox and a shovel. See if they give you any strange looks. --Streaker69

garage door opener
So i have read the manual and i still can notseem to figure out how to program the garage opener. HELP!
It's clearly laid out step by step. Read it again
I did it on my first try
Garage door
I have a 135i and a WAYNE DALTON garage door opener and they are not compatible. You'd think BMW would cover all bases..... You may have same problem.
I have programmed my Z4M and 335Xi, and the programming works differently than other cars I'he had. It is ultimately about following the book, which says you have to first follow the non- rolling steps and then the rolling code steps. Where most people have rolling codes you'd think you could start there, but you have to go through both steps.
Of course my newest car is a 2008 and your models could be different ... hope this helps
Sent from my Kindle Fire using Bimmer
Sent from my DROIDX using Bimmer
reading the manual from my wife's 2011 M37, apparently BMW skipped a step in the programming instructions, all Homelinks operate the same, it is helpful with another person as you have to push the learn button on the garage opener and run back to the car and push the coressponding button 3 times within 30 seconds, if you do it yourself it is great exercise , climbing the step ladder to push the button and running back to the car, in fact I didn't have to go to the gym that day as I must have run back and forth at least twenty times!
Programmed mine in a few minutes. First, learning the remote. Then, learning the rolling code. Works great!
What worked for me was actually touching the remote to the mirror during programming. Holding it an inch from the mirror just wasn't working. Other than that the instructions were fine - I just wiped the memory first then followed the rolling code programming steps.

I pulled this cable out and cleaned the contacts. That solved the problem for a couple of years and then one day I had a scrambled screen. I was able to just tug lightly on the cable behind the screen and fix the issue, but I need to take the unit out and clean the contacts again. Use Deoxit contact cleaner. You can buy it at Radio Shack. It is also popular amongst us audiophiles for cleaning our audio cable contacts. Very good stuff. So the problem is not your screen, just a corroded connection.
wow thanks, so i would need to take the screen out and clean the ribbon contacts??

Aug 13, 2014 - By Bruce Tippets, Sports EditorRiverton resident Karen Zoller is a perfect one-for-one at the Lander Sprint Triathlon.
Zoller had enough left in the tank to finish first Saturday in 1:13.48 for the top spot in the women's category.
In the men's division, Jason Crompton won the title in 57:27.
The race included a 750-meter swim, a 19k bike ride and a 5k run.
First timer
It was the fourth summer in a row Lander has put on a triathlon but just the first time Zoller had entered it.
"When I was young in my early days, I did (triathlons)," Zoller said. "Now that I'm getting older, I thought that I would try one again."
Competitors race against the clock.
"You really don't know the other times because we were in different heats," Zoller said.
Kelsey Cardwell finished second in the women's division (1:17.50).
"I was so new to the competition that I really didn't know who to look for," Zoller said. "I just looked at trying to get my own personal record.
"I was happy when I found out," Zoller said.
Misty Atnip placed third with a time of 1:24.26.
The swim portion of the triathlon was 15 laps.
"The course was definitely challenging, but it was a fun course," Zoller said. After the swimming leg of the triathlon, racers jumped on their bikes in the transition area in the parking lot of the swimming pool.
"They had the transition area organized," Zoller said. "You can find your bike quick and get out."
The 19k bike ride took place on Squaw Creek / Baldwin Creek Road loop.
"There was like a slow grade on the bike course, then you came down," Zoller said.
"When you came down, you didn't have to look at the finish line forever."
The racers completed the event with a 5k run on the south side of town. Zoller liked that the least.
"For me, (the difficulty) was the running part," Zoller said. "The run is not my strongest because I'm more like a swimmer and bike rider."

steering shaft charts?
Hi, Are there any steering shaft charts? I'm using an Intrepid rack. It appears to be a 3/4" shaft-36 spline. I want to use a '68-'72 Chevy truck steering column, one without a column shifter, one ton, etc. I need to know what kind of u-joints to buy. Thanks in advance, Rod
I would give either Borgeson or Flaming River a call they can tell you real quick what you need.
Hey 320 Z28, thanks for the info. True, those guys have about everything. Thanks again, Rod

Are you interested in booking a hotel for your Tunica, Mississippi vacation? Why not get the best of both worlds by ordering luxury and enjoying gambling along the way? If you enjoy gambling then you might as well book a stay in a casino-hotel accommodation, which lets you literally gamble in your pajamas. (All right, maybe not literally, but at least it's a short walk from your room to the gambling floor.)
If you enjoy gambling and plan to visit Tunica, MS hotels this year then start looking at some of the most popular casino hotels in the area. In addition to luxurious accommodations, you get lots of gaming (table and slot machines) as well as world-class golf and gourmet dining.
Some of the top Tunica resorts in the area include Bally's Casino, with over 40,000 square feet of fun and Fitzgerald's Casino, which has a castle theme. The Gold Strike Casino Resort is 31 stories and one of the tallest buildings in the entire state. It has over 1,400 slot machines and 40 tables. Harrah's Tunica is the largest casino resort between Vegas and Atlantic City and has a host of amenities. The Hollywood Casino Tunica offers a 54,000 square foot gaming room as well as an RV park, a hotel and three on-site restaurants. Other casino resorts of interest include Horseshoe Casino, with over 2,000 slot machines, and Sam's Town, with two floors of table games and slots.
Of course, there are numerous hotels that offer casino and hotel packages in this city. All of these accommodations provide fun, gambling excitement and luxurious amenities that the whole family can enjoy. The best way to experience a Tunica vacation is to combine both aspects of the vacation into one low bill. You can do this by paying for a luxury hotel and enjoying a free pass to a casino. If you want to experience all the fun then make your reservations early. You can make Tunica hotel reservations online.
Casino hotels in Tunica, MS are conveniently located, as they are just about an hour's drive away from Memphis, Mississippi. A few decades ago, Tunica was once considered a ghost town with no real prospect of growth. Today, the town is bustling and is one of the top casino locations anywhere in the country. The citizens of Tunica have these colorful casino resorts to thank for reinvigorating the town's popularity.

Alaska is the last frontier, not to be taken lightly they have alot of wildlife that you have to take precautions and carrying a gun is one of them. People are more respectful of others and you will never meet more generous people. It is not a blood bath. Do you realize that there are more people in Detroit than in the entire state of Alaska. Food for thought.I personnally would be scared to death of Alaska. Isn't it true Alaska has some of the weakest gun control laws in the world? No permit for guns?
It must be a blood bath up there!
Move to Alaska??

First of all its ferry not "fairy" and having lived in AK my entire life and growing up just south of Fairbanks in Anderson I would pack your stuff in a uhaul and drive to seattle then ship it via say Lynden transport and fly or drive your car from there through canada as the Alaska Ferry is not cost effective and by the time you ride it to haines to connect to the highway you have been on there three days you could have driven to Fairbanks and for less money and remember after the 3 day boat ride you still have 750 miles to drive

Would love if anyone has any input on the school systems there. I have a daughter with multiple disabilities including deafness so I could use as much information as possible, anything would be appreciated. Also, what is the job market like? Would it be difficult to move there and find a job without having one lined up already?

I grew up in Alaska, and miss it very much. And for the idiots that think you'll get mauled by a bear or shot by a wild eyed mountain man if you step out of your house....
Well, I sure do miss my igloo up there, and all those raw fish eyes we used to eat, and I really miss going everywhere in our plane or by dog sled, since that's the only modes of transportation, and so on and so forth...

You are extremely misinformed. You need to educate yourself. There gun laws have not changed the amount of deaths by gunshots.
#27 Dec 2, 2006
There is also a company call Minalaska and yes it is cheaper to drive. The roads are fine. Pack a cooler and save yourself the food cost. People move in and out of Alaska for many reasons but there always seems to be plenty of moving sales if you do not want to haul everything.

I live in Fairbanks and we have NO gangs and a very low crime rate because we police ourselves. We are good neighbors. We take care of each other at minus 50 to 90 above. We carry guns because we are free citizens. It's not a "blood bath" up here. I would bet money you don't help out your neighbors and they don't help you. It must be a hard life to depend on the police for your safety and fear the folks around you

By the way, in Arizona, it is LEGAL to carry a firearm on your person, if it is in plain sight. There is also the concealed weapon permits, but if your weapon is readily visible, you need no permit. Alaska is not the only state that allows citizens to carry.

Hey Jessica,
I can't believe that out of all the comments you received no one mentioned the great schools and opportunities for kids!! The school systems are great and there are wonderful enrichment programs from the arts to sports. Raising kids up here is fabulous, not to mention the opportunities the university has to offer.
If you are an outdoorsy type... you will be a home up here. If you have a little commonsense you will be fine. There are plenty of places to go hiking and there are local groups to join to get involved in whatever your heart desires. And the comment about guns is funny... it is true that you don't need a consealed license to carry... but Fairbanks really doesn't have a lot of trouble with gun crimes. It is a way of life up here and it actually deters a lot of crime because people don't pick fights because you never know what the other guy is carrying!!
My husband and I drove up from Michigan in March. Just buy a milepost book (check the bookstore) and highlight all the gas stations. Get gas at every stop and you will be fine. We had to go slow because the roads are ice packed in winter, but we made it up here in less than a week.
As for the weather up here...
Summers are fabulous and are our best asset. The flowers grow bigger and more beautiful than any other place I have been. Winters aren't that bad either... there are really cold snaps, but just bundle up and it is no big deal. As for the darkness in the winter... you really don't notice it because the snow reflects so well... also the northern lights are great!
Good luck and hope to see you up here!!

Hello all , I have been offered a job in several parts of Alaska , mostly remote . Nome, Aniak ect. as a child protection investigator. The pay is high and steady work ,but I worry about bringing my dog and cat. Is housing possible or will I just have to take what is offered due to limit of affordable rentals offered.

#32 Dec 6, 2006
Wow... Can you say Culture Shock? Are you really from Tallahassee? Do you have any idea of what those remote villages are like?
I would recommend getting more information from the organization (State of Alaska?) that has offered you the job. They can not seriously expect you to go from Tallahassee Fl to Nome or Aniak AK with no understanding of the difference in environment or culture...
But you can start here:
Good luck

I was wondering if anyone has every lived in Aniak, AK? What should be expected in terms of the living and weather conditions, rental possibilities, standard of living, etc.?

Move to Alaska. I'm planning on moving there myself, having been there for just the last 2 summers. Next year hopefully I won't have to come back to Minnesota. I'm still fairly young, haven't been to many places, but I can tell you that Alaska is incredible. Everybody there is from all around the world it seems, in the summer at least. It's also a very informal place. As far as gun control goes, don't get mixed up with the wrong kind of people, and you'll do just fine. Alaska defenitely has it's own kind of rednecks... but they are good to have on your side i suppose!!! I think the lax gun laws there are important depending on where it is in alaska. Ketchikan, Petersburg, and Valdez are wonderful places, but I don't know anything about the more Northern places.. Oh yea, and the Alaskan food and beer are DELICIOUS. If you like seafood. Or Mexican, which is very popular there for some reason.
#35 Dec 12, 2006
Sorry, didn't mean any offense by the gun or redneck comments that I posted... I highly agree with Chelsea on the subject, but I don't take back what I posted.
#36 Dec 14, 2006
What are you talking about, gun control/blood bath?
Check the statistics out! How many people die per capita Alaska v. Illinois?
Criminals carry guns all the time, just because honest people carry guns doesn't mean "bloodbath".

I currently live in London, England and am relocating back to the United States in March. I am going to be possibly moving to Aniak, Alaska and would love hosuing tips (how to get some before I move) and how it is like to live there. ANy information people have is really beneficial.
#38 Dec 24, 2006
If you are moving to Aniak you must have a purpose since Aniak town is about 4 blocks by 4 blocks. If your job company is recruiting you ask for advice from them, but don't go without a housing plan. The cost of housing can far out weigh any money paid as wages. Aniak is in the wilderness!

"First of all its ferry not "fairy"" to funny Stewart.
I moved out of Alaska after 31 years of living there. i regretted it almost instantly. will be returning in March. thought it would be wonderful here in W.A. been homesick and depressed for 3 months.
it isn't for eveyone. I will say that. prepare for culture shock. but wonderful place to raise children. I wouldn't have raised mine anywhere else given the oppertunity.
never owned a gun. never needed a gun.

Treasures at the Indiana State Archives
History of Broad Ripple, Indiana
The town of Broad Ripple (image on right) was platted by Jacob Coil (or Coyle) in April, 1837, on land he purchased from Jacob McKay and John Colip. It was located north of the Central Canal which had just started to be constructed.
South of the canal the town of Wellington (image below) was platted in May, 1837, by James and Adam Nelson.
The rivaling towns joined together in 1884 with the establishment of one post office, called Broad Ripple, and located south of the canal. Broad Ripple Village was annexed to the city of Indianapolis in 1922.
The Broad Ripple plat, north of the canal, is bounded by the current streets of Westfield, 64th Street, Carrollton, and the Sugar Bob Lane alley. The area of Wellington shown on the plat maps is bounded by the current streets of Westfield, Winthrop, Broad Ripple Avenue, and Guilford.

Student records from many closed Indiana hospital nursing schools are preserved at the Indiana State Archives. A database of student names from eleven closed schools is now online at http://digitalarchives.in.gov/
Peru Map
This is an "Outline Plat of the City of Peru in Miami County" submitted to the Indiana Supreme Court in 1876 as an exhibit in the case of City of Peru et al. v. Daniel R. Bearss et al. The case was decided May 28, 1877 by the Supreme Court. The map shows the present boundaries of the city of Peru and the adjacent lands that the city sought to annex. Among the lands sought to be annexed were parts of J.B. Richardville's Reserve (Miami Indian), Francis Godfroy's Reserve No. 12 (Miami Indian) and property owned by James O. Cole (grandfather of Cole Porter).
The map is an ink drawing on linen. Dimensions are 35 and three quarters by 27 inches. The scale is 400 feet to the inch. It was platted and described by J.M. Brown.
Elizabeth Hague, the State Archives' conservation technician, cleaned and flattened the map, which was folded.

Ride Orion or Sash
Hey guys,
I'm putting a new setup together and recently bought these women's Ride Orion boots:
On Sale Ride Orion Snowboard Boots White - Womens up to 50% off
They fit pretty well and were a good deal, but since trying them on I suddenly remembered how much I hate laces. I started looking around at BOAs some more, and am now considering getting the Ride Sash:
Ride Sash Boa Coiler Snowboard Boots - Women's - 2011 Closeout - Free Shipping at REI-OUTLET.com
Do you think it would be worth it to return/resell the Orions and pay a bit more for the Sash? From what I've read, people say its not worth going BOA unless they are dual bc of pressure points, but the Sash sadly is not.
I consider myself to be an intermediate rider, very comfortable with all mountain free riding, but hoping to get into the park more this season. Let me know what you think.

Quick Q & A With Melanie Oudin

We got a chance to catch up with Melanie Oudin prior to her WTT match for the Boston Lobsters, and she did our OnTheGoTennis Quick Q & A. Here is what she had to say:
Photo by Jennifer Landsberg
We got a chance to catch up with Melanie Oudin prior to her WTT match for the Boston Lobsters, and she did our OnTheGoTennis Quick Q & A. Here is what she had to say:
While in New York, Ellen Degeneres visited the US Open and all types of hilarity ensued. She played tennis with Melanie Oudin, crashed Venus Williams book signing, taught the ball kids, and made drinks for fans while drinking a bit herself.
My favorite part? When she puts two shots into someone's Honey Deuce, (a fab drink the sell at the Open) instead of one and calls it mixed doubles. Hmmmm......doesn't sound so funny when I type it, but really funny to watch. Promise!
If you haven't seen my flickr photostream yet, you should, but I'll give you a little preview here. The US Open this week was AWESOME, and I am terribly sad that I am back at home in North Carolina. The first week was ridiculously hot, and there was no shortage of people getting heat-stroke (really), but we still braved the heat to watch our favorite players battle it out on the courts.
Didn't post anything yesterday, and tonight's post will be a quickie.
Day 3 was a pretty great day. Didn't get started until around 2pm due to lack of sleep, but when I arrived on the grounds I was grateful for the slight breeze and temperatures a few degrees cooler than the day before. I stalked the practice courts for about an hour and got to see Tommy Robredo, Roger Federer, Andy Murray, Martina Navratilova and Kim Clijsters. The only one that got the shirtless memo was Robredo (Navratilova and Clijsters excluded of course.)
I will admit it, I was SOOOO on the Melanie Oudin bandwagon last year at the US Open. It was just too good of a story.....little spunky kid with the tennis shoes bearing "Believe," makes it to the quarter-finals taking out 3 seeded players en-route, becomes America's darling, does multiple late-night appearances and plays tennis with Ellen. So what happened?
Last night Mary Carillo and Bob Costas hosted one of the largest nights in Women's Sports, the 30th Annual Salute to Women in Sports Awards. In attendance: Billy Jean King, Melanie Oudin, and Rennae Stubbs. Some additional pics after the jump..........
After her run at the US Open, Melanie Oudin has been making her way around the talk show cirucut. Yesterday Melanie was a guest on Ellen, and after the show Ellen and Queen Latifah played doubles with Melanie and DJTony. Funny!

The Witcher 2 - EE Interview @ 2nd Impact
French site 2nd Impact has interviewed CDPR artist Lucjan Więcek about The Witcher 2 Enhanced Edition. The conversation covers a little history on the studio and, of course, the console version coming soon. A bit on the PC stuff, as a reminder:
Does the new interface apply to the PC version as well? Or just the 360 version? Because I played the PC version with a 360 controller, and would benefit from the controller-friendly interface. Sacrilege I know, but what can I say - I usually play any game I can with a controller. The interface was horrendous though.
So like Bioware the dlc will actually explain that Cliff hanger at the end. At least it's free. I sometimes wonder what happens to the development of the end game content and the endings we get.
No, everything that should have been resolved in RW2 WAS resolved. You get all the answers you could want and you can decide what to do about Letho. The fact that they are adding ending slides Fallout 1 style is just icing on the cake.
Argh, don't have to play TW2 anymore. I know the ending now :-(
Still waiting for the ps3 version (TW2 EEE: Extra Enhanced Edition ?)
Despite the interface (which I was kind of hoping would receive a bit of an upgrade) and the more pointless QTE's (I found the Kayran QTE sequence to be rather fun and found that it preserved the notion that this creature was simply too big/powerful to defeat by "conventional gameplay" quite well, but the QTEs where you were aiming an arbalest? Pointless), TW2 is simply one of the best story-driven RPGs I've had the opportunity to play in the last decade or two.
Playing it again to see what's been changed/added/tweaked won't be any sort of chore for me.
Its not the worst way to end a game but its not the best way either. I can name worse endings. Whatever I still enjoyed the game and that's all that matters.
So for some cheap money when I preordered it at GOG, got the game, enjoyed it and replayed, and now I'm getting even more freebies?
Um, can I preorder The Witcher 3 already? Just name the price, I'm in!
Eat yourself EA.

(keep in mind iv owned a handgun for less than a year so whats amazing for me would be terrible by some of your standards.) i love shooting the rows of 6 8inch steel plates at 25 yards at my local range. i went from hitting about 3 out of ten shots to going an entire box of ammo with maby 3 misses. things also look pretty good on paper. feels good to finally figure the weapon out. :mrgreen:

"Very yummy! Great flavor from the mushrooms, I used 1 cup fresh mushrooms and minced them up real fine so my family wouldn't see them! Great way to use up leftover ham from Easter. Only problem is, it seems to serve less than 6 people. There is not a lot of sauce (I have a family of 6) and next time I will definitely be making more.

Zika virus, a mosquito-borne flavivirus that causes febrile illness associated with rash, has been rapidly emerging in the Western Hemisphere over the past few months. The virus was rarely identified until outbreaks occurred on Yap Island in the Federated States of Micronesia in 2007, French Polynesia in 2013, and Easter Island in 2014. It was initially detected in Brazil in 2015, in the northeast, and was subsequently identified in other states and several South American countries, including Colombia, Ecuador, Suriname, Venezuela, French Guyana, and Paraguay (1). Local transmission has been documented in Central America (Panama, El Salvador, Honduras, and Guatemala), the Caribbean (Martinique, Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, and Haiti), and Mexico. Transmission has also occurred in travelers returning from the infected regions to nonendemic countries, including the United States, Canada, Japan, and Western Europe. As of 22 January 2016, a total of 20 countries and territories in the Americas have Zika virus circulation (1). The explosive spread mirrors the emergence of chikungunya, which was first detected in the Americas (St. Martin) in 2013 and rapidly disseminated throughout the region (2).

How New York Went from Natural Paradise to Man-Made Wonder
Today, the topography of New York City contains skyscrapers, subways, and iconic bridges. But New York was once home to oyster reefs, whales, and blueberry bog thickets. In his book, Gotham Unbound: The Ecological History of Greater New York, Ted Steinberg brings a vanished New York back to life and tells the story of the ongoing struggle between the metropolis we know today and the natural world.
The New York that Henry Hudson saw in 1609 was covered with oak and hickory trees, blueberry bog thickets, and all kinds of grasses. The waters around New York were filled with marine life including shad, porpoises, and whales. And there were "birds galore." Oysters "were incredibly important to the ecology of New York Harbor" because they acted as filters for the water.
The Dutch first came to Governor's Island and then travelled to what is now Lower Manhattan.
But it was the British who started to make New York into something that we might recognize today. Large parts of the city were filled in throughout Lower Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Queens. "Manhattan today is 1,700 football fields bigger than it was back at the time that Henry Hudson sailed into the Harbor."
But it was the street grid, introduced in 1811, that transformed Manhattan. "The grid pioneered high density life in New York."
Thanks to plentiful marshland, malaria was a problem in Brooklyn into the 1910's.
Staten Island once had 5,000 to 5,500 acres of wetland. By 2010, it was reduced to an area about the size of Central Park.

Four Things Miley's Twerking Tells Us

Overly sexualized performances are not a new concept and are certainly no stranger to the VMAs. Much like Spears and Madonna before her, Cyrus is now memorable because of the spectacle she caused.

On July 24, ABC Family premiered its new competition show Spell-Mageddon. The show takes the traditional spelling bee format — popularized in recent years by films like Spellbound or Akeelah and the Bee — and adds a new wrinkle. Rather than competing in a quiet and controlled environment, contestants are subjected to absurd distractions while attempting to spell words jovially called out by host Alfonso Ribeiro (Fresh Prince's Carlton Banks). Thus, for $10,000, participants may have to spell "vic … [Read more...]
The Kiddy Pool: The Borgias' Twisted Version of Brotherly Love
Ever since I finished The Tudors long ago, I've been trying to catch up on The Borgias. I just watched all of Season 2 in a single week (my library's limit for in-demand DVDs), and the show's gruesome finale left me mulling over this twisted, power-hungry clan.I realize how loose historical interpretations can get, especially on Showtime. But the interpretation of the Borgia siblings' relationships transcends distinctions of fact and fiction, drawing on historical speculation and biblical all … [Read more...]

Sin in Syndication: Breaking the 'Community' Spirit
NBC's comedy Community has always survived while on the cusp of cancellation, thanks in large part to a small but vocal and devoted fan base. The series' ostensible plot follows the standard grab-bag of misfits who've ended up at Greendale Community College; they are initially brought together by the conniving of slick former lawyer Jeff Winger (Joel McHale), who contrives a study group as a subterfuge to mask his intentions toward hard-left activist Britta Perry (Gillian Jacobs). Despite -- or … [Read more...]

So this brings me up to now.
Tank Equipment:
Eheim Pro II 2128
I regret getting the version with the heater because the electrical and temperature probe cords are connected to the filter base and not the top like normal. This means I cannot remove the top and pick up the base without having to deal with cords. I have to unplug the probe and heater electrical cord and drag these around whenever I move the filter base. While I don't need to move the base very often, it's just an extra hassle I would have avoided if I had known better. My tank temperature stays around 76°F without a heater so I really didn't even need the heater in the filter. I just thought it would be handy. Turns out, it's more of a hassle than handy.
Turbo Twist 12X 36w UV Sterilizer
this is setup inline from the output of my Eheim. I replaced my 3X 9w sterilizer for this larger one because of my flow rate from the Eheim. Rather than slow down the flow of the Eheim, I opted to get a much larger sterilizer that can handle the flow.
Rena XP4
My second filter to ensure that I had more than overkill for filtration in the tank. It also allows me to clean out one filter while leaving the other running and with undisturbed bacteria. I also think this will be a good idea as the filters age should one filter break down for some reason. I won't have to panic that my tank is left without filtration while I'm fixing one of the filters.
Rex CO2 Reactor
this was custom made for my by Orlando! I love it! He did a fantastic job of making it. I'm still trying to get the CO2 setup so right now, I'm getting some bubbles, but I think I can clear that up with better experience on my part.
Customflo kits
I bought two of the complete kits. Obviously, I'm pretty anal regarding filtration. The kits help me, as a beginner, to have enough parts to do just what it says customize the intake and output flow of the filters. I very much like them! However, I think they are inherently designed with one flaw. The "u" that takes the filters over the tank edge use slip on joints on both sides, the part that goes into the tank and also the part that connects to the filter's output hose. This means that if the output hose gets pulled accidentally, it can very easily become disconnected from the "u" going over the tank edge which would then result in having the output water hose start blowing water all over the room! No way could I live with that risk. So I used JB Weld epoxy to glue the slip joints. Now an accidental tug won't cause my room to become flooded!
TEK 4 x 54 lighting
What a nice fixture! But I'm not using it yet. I am rigging up my canopy so that the lights will be able to shine down on the tank, as normal, when I'm not working on the tank or am just opening the canopy while feeding the fish, BUT the lights can also be hung on the canopy when it's open! This way, instead of having the lights blinding me in the face when the canopy's open, they will be hung up in a way that allows me to work inside the tank while the lights are up and out of the way, but still shining light into the tank so I can see what I'm doing. When I get this finished, I'll take pictures of how I rigged it and how well it works.
Giesemann Lamps
I'm running two Giesemann 54W 11000K Aquablue Plus and two 54W 6000K Midday Sun lamps. I can run the fixture with either 2 or 4 lamps turned on so I'll start with just 2 lamps, one of each type.
Pressurized CO2
I have a 10 lbs canister with the normal Milwaukee regulator, solenoid, and bubble counter setup. I'm also using the ADG Double Check drop counter to help me learn how much CO2 to put in the tank to reach a good level. I've been scared to setup my pressurized CO2 (my phobia), but lots of really great people on this board have held my hand through each step so that I'm finally becoming comfortable with it.
Eco-Complete substrate
I chose it mostly because I wanted a black substrate and could not find the black Flourite anywhere! Funny thing is that I got what has been called a "bad batch" of Eco-Complete so it's not completely black. It has pieces of different colors (all dark). Turns out I like the color mix as it looks more natural to me.
DFW red oak stand and canopy
this rivals the Oceanic red oak stand and canopy, but I actually think it's prettier because it has a lip on the stand that hides the tank's trim. This is made by a company in the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex (as if the company's name doesn't give that away). I don't know how far they ship their stands and canopies, but I really recommend them.
All-Glass brand 75g tank
Not much to say here other than it's a quality tank. I like the 75g size due to its dimensions of 48L x 18W x 21T. The 55g is only 12" wide which limits the footprint for the fish, and the 90g tank is 25" tall which makes it harder for me to reach into for scaping. So the 75g was the perfect choice for me.
Current Plants:
This list isn't complete, but these are the most significant plants in the tank at the moment.
Anubias barteri 'barteri
' - a super large plant I got from the swap-n-shop (SNS) forum here. It arrived with BBA on it (which I knew when I bought it) which I have treated with a 1:20 ratio of bleach for 2 minutes. The plant is left with a white beard on the leaves which I'm hoping will disintegrate over time. Some of the leaves have turned yellow, especially around the bottom, but that's because it hasn't received CO2 or ferts since I got it. The CO2 is now turned on so I just have to figure out the ferts which I know will really help this plant.
Anubias barteri 'nana'
received from same person as the 'barteri' above. Same BBA, same bleach treatment, same results. But the plants are HUGE for being nanas so I think they are still worth having.
Anubias barteri 'coffeefolia
' - I found a very nice specimen at a LFS. I'd like to add a few more.
Cryptocoryne willisii 'lucens
' - Three nice pots of this from a LFS. Not planted yet. They're being held in the tank while still in their pots. They've been doing great that way for over a month.
Microsorum pteropus (Java Fern
) - just a few small plants that I removed from another tank.
Microsorum pteropus 'Windelov' (Windelov Java Fern)
- a really nice, large, well shaped plant I got from the SNS here.
Microsorum pteropus "needle leaves" (Needle Leaf Java Fern)
I have a LOT of this! Again, from a SNS deal. Unfortunately, one of the large plants was damaged when I had to stop working on it while I was in the middle of rinsing it in plain untreated water. Then the plant stayed like that for 3 days. So the leaves aren't as wonderful as they were when I first got them. But my kids needed my attention so the plant lost out. It's still very healthy so it'll do well once I clean it up and give it some CO2 and ferts.
I don't know what kind it is. It's not corkscrew because the leaves are straight. They're pretty long so it's a tall variety. I got this as a freebie in a SNS deal. Right now, they're bundled together and weighted to keep them alive, but they are not planted yet.
Fissidens fontanus
Yet another great buy from the SNS here. I have it tied to my driftwood. Very pretty plant!
Fish and Inverts:
Pelvicachromis taeniatus 'Kienke'
I have a fabulous pair that I think was already paired off at the LFS's tank. They coupled together instantly and are already showing lots of breeding signs. These are absolutely beautiful fish!
Pelvicachromis taeniatus 'Moliwe'
Another fabulous pair of dwarf cichlids. The Kienkes have taken over the entire front of the tank so I don't see my Moiliwes as much. When I actually get my tank scaped, I will do what I can to break things up so each Pelvicachromis pair has it's own territory. If this doesn't work, I can always move a pair to my 20Long (which I'll be changing out for a 29g tank).
Pelvicachromis taeniatus 'Nigerian Red'
My 3rd pair of what I sometimes refer to "fancy Kribensis" (Kribensis is supposed to be used only for the old, traditional Pelvicachromis pulcher, but most people seem to know all of the Pelvicachromis species better if you just say Kribs). While these were the most expensive of my three pairs, they are not the fanciest by pattern or color. They are more like the old, traditional Kribs which is one reason why I got them. The male's tail will be pointed and both sexes will have the traditional black spot markings. So I got them since they bring back fond memories from my first set of Kribs over 30 years ago.
Puntius denisonii (Torpedo Barbs)
How many common names can a fish have? They are also called Roseline Sharks, Red Line Torpedo Barbs and Denison's Barbs. Geeez! By whatever name, these are absolutely incredible fish! I have 10 of them. They grow to about 4"-5", have outstandingly bright and pure red, yellow and black markings on a shiny silver body, and they will schoal together and swim independently. They are always in motion, usually in the middle of the tank, but they'll go up and down, as well. But the best part of these fish is that they are peaceful! They make a great addition to a community tank. Definitely a star among fish!
Apistogramma cacatuoides (Apisto Cockatoo)
I finally got one to see if I could have one in my high 8.0 pH water. The answer is YES! Unfortunately, he scraped himself when I was adding rocks into the tank so he's currently in a H/T (hospital tank) being treated until his wound heals. He's doing really great in his H/T. I think he likes having the whole tank to himself!
Mikrogeophagus ramirezi (Blue German Ram)
Another fish I was testing to see if it can handle my high pH. Yes, he can! And he's so beautiful. I'm not sure if I'll give him a mate or not. He is a bit more shy with all the Pelvicachromis fish in there, but he seems to be coming around. He also seems to miss his buddy, my apisto that I mentioned above. I'm hoping that when his friend rejoins the tank, the two will keep each other company, helping to ease the stress for them both. If not, then I'll move one or both to other tanks.
Paracheirodon axelrodi (Cardinal Tetras)
I've been slowly adding these to be my main small shoaling dither fish. I have 11 in the tank so far with 10 more in Q/T. I'm not sure how many I'll get in total. It'll just depend on how many it takes for them to make a real show of themselves in the tank. I can say that 11 is not enough. We'll see what it looks like when I get the other 10 in there.
Poecilia reticulata (Guppies)
All male! I started out with just a few, right? Now I have the males and females seperated. Yes, I know the females will continue to give birth, but it will eventually stop with no males around. I like the guppies just as colorful dither fish. But as they die, I won't be replacing them. I just noticed one of my smaller males (from some fry I had) has lost its tail. So I have a bad feeling he got into the Pelvicachromis' territory and did not move out fast enough. This particular male has always been strange. He never socialized very well and grew much slower and smaller than all the rest. So I suppose I shouldn't be surprised that he'd get hurt in that tank. I'll probably euthanize him if his tail is too far gone. Poor guy. But the other guppies are doing well. Kind of a dumb, but happy and colorful dither fish.
Caridina multidentata/japonica (Amano Shrimp)
Yes, this is the algae eating shrimp made famous by Takashi Amano. I absolutely adore these shrimp! I have about 40 in the tank, 30 of which are thanks to yet another great SNS buy. These shrimp have personality. Not only do they do their job of cleaning, they are so much fun to watch. If you drop an algae wafer in the tank, one shrimp will snatch the wafer right out from underneath a group of fish and then swim off with it! They walk and swim everywhere in the tank. They will even swim upside down at the surface of the tank to catch floating food. They eat anything and everything (except living animals in the tank). I got a few on a lark a long time ago when I saw them for a great price, and ever since then, I've been in love with them. No, they aren't the most colorful shrimp, but what they lack in color, they make up for in personality!
Panaque sp. (L204 Flash Pleco)
This fish has been with me since early on when I started back into having tanks. He started out as a little guy in a 5g tank and was then moved to my 20Long tank when I got that set up. He finally was placed in his intended home, my 75g tank, when I got it. He was the first fish I put in my 75g tank. If you haven't seen a L204, you're missing out. They are very beautiful with an incredible tail! They are shy and like wood. They can also be territorial when they get older. I have a male who has shown some territorial aggression, but not bad. I only know of one fish he bit, a female guppy in my 20L who was trying to steal his algae wafer. He could also be the one who has bitten off the tail of my male guppy in the tank now, but I doubt it. He doesn't ask for a very large territory which is good. I have a new slate cave I've made for him, and once I decorate the outside so it will look more natural, I'll see if he'll take to it when I scape the tank.
Still on my plans for this tank, other than a LOT of colorful plants, is to add about 5 zebra loaches (Botia striata) and possibly a few SAEs (the true ones). But that's it. The tank is already getting very crowded and overstocked (one reason I'll let the male guppies fade out over time).
Right now, I'm doing my best to finish getting the equipment going and working to have a good environment for plants. Then I can worry about finishing the aquascaping. I have a few ideas that may or may not work, such as using waterfall foam to make clay pots and PVC pipes blend in more naturally into the aquascape. I also want to add some natural rocks to make more natural caves. I think this tank will require A LOT of caves to make it successful. But if I do run into fish conflicts, there's always room for more tanks!
Okay, that brings the journal up to date. I'll edit this thread as things change to keep my equipment, plants and fish lists as up to date as I can.

My former ennui had disappeared, and in exchange I felt the dreamy vernal sadness, woven of unknown hopes and unslaked desires.
To take stains out of marble, make a tolerably thick mixture of unslaked lime finely powdered, with some strong soap-ley.
The best spray can be made by taking four ounces of copper sulphate, four ounces of unslaked lime, and three gallons of water.
But what if all this misery, all this hunger, this unslaked thirst could have been avoided?
Take also a pound of unslaked or quick-lime and add a cupful of water to it.
It is his to paint the unslaked thirst and the unstilled longing.
A teaspoonful of unslaked lime dissolved in a pint of warm water, shaken and given immediately.
If his thirst for glory was unslaked, his fears of disaster had disappeared.
Lime for Cottage Walls, &c.—Take a stone or two of unslaked white lime, and dissolve it in a pail of cold water.
The lime used should be of the unslaked type, and should be protected from the air until a short time before using.
late Old English sleacian, slacian "become slack or remiss; slacken an effort" (intransitive); "delay, retard" (transitive), from slæc "lax" (see slack (adj.)). Transitive sense of "make slack" is from late 12c. Sense of "allay, diminish in force, quench, extinguish" (in reference to thirst, hunger, desire, wrath, etc.) first recorded early 14c. via notion of "make slack or inactive." Related: Slaked; slaking.

Gang, I am embarrassed to have to post this question....but, here it goes:
I've had my 2013 XTS for about a month now....definitely still learning all of the ins-n-outs of CUE, etc...but, my backdoors cannot be opened from the inside (like a child lock feature). I've searched along the door itself for the good ol' fashioned child lock toggle that is found on many vehicles, but don't see anything. I've also searched through the settings in CUE, as well as in the Owner's Manual, and can't seem to find anything in either place.
What am I missing/overlooking? My kids are staring to get used to me opening their doors for them, so I need to get this fixed pronto, before I spoil them!
Thanks for the help.

May 8, 2012
CHICAGO - Loyola University Chicago head women's volleyball coach Chris Muscat rounded out his coaching staff by naming Dan Buehring assistant coach this afternoon. A native of Naperville, Ill., Buehring has spent the last three seasons as an assistant coach at UIC.
"We are very excited for Dan to join our staff," said Muscat. "He brings a great deal of knowledge and energy to the gym and has proven himself to be a great trainer and communicator of the game."
"Dan's ability to create positive relationships and his understanding of the culture we are building at Loyola make him a great fit. Dan shares a vision for a positive student-athlete experience and embraces the opportunity to help push Loyola volleyball towards academic, social, and athletic excellence."
Buehring arrives in Rogers Park after a two-year stint on the bench at UIC. In his three years there, Buehring helped the Flames to 43 wins, including their first trip to the Horizon League semifinals since 2006, and worked with a pair of All-Horizon League student-athletes.
He began his coaching career after a two-year playing career as a setter at California Baptist University, where he helped the Lancers to consecutive NAIA national championships in 2006 and 2007. Buehring has remained active as a beach volleyball player, racking up 15 professional tournament titles and 43 top-three finishes in his career. In addition, he earned a CBVA (California Beach Volleyball Association) AAA rating after winning a CVBA Open tournament at Ocean Beach in San Diego, Calif. in 2011.
Possessing Chicagoland ties, Buehring played club volleyball with Sports Performance. He graduated from Cal Baptist in 2007 with a degree in business administration and received his master's of education degree from UIC in 2011.

Get Japanese Delicacies and Pub Grub Under the Same Roof
For a prime example of the blending of low- and high-end all in the name of good taste, look no further than Phoenix's Nobuo at Teeter House. When James Beard award–winning chef Nobuo Fukuda closed his beloved Sea Saw restaurant in 2009, area food lovers were aggrieved by the loss of the Tokyo-born chef's prized, high-end Japanese fare. They needn't have worried, though, because the acclaimed chef's new project in historic Heritage Square was about to deliver them Fukuda's signature mad-genius pairings of fresh local and traditional Japanese ingredients in two forms: omakase and izakaya. The reservations-only omakase (chef's choice) menu often includes mind-boggling concoctions such as fois gras–infused egg custard and Wagyu short ribs with miso butter. And those longing for what can perhaps be described as the best pub grub in Arizona can enjoy izakaya gems like okomiyaki (a seafood-and-pork pancake) and pork-belly buns.

They were interviewing another biker on the radio tonight. He said they are tested so often and so randomly (he said he had been pulled out of bed in the middle of the night to pee), that there is just no way that he was clean every single time if he was taking anything, or using masking agents.
Totally agree with Jeepy, his personal life is irrevelant here.
I believe in manicures. I believe in overdressing. I believe in primping at leisure and wearing lipstick. I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles.

Filibuster Holds Up Vote on CIA Nominee
Paul's Delay Tactic Presses Administration for Promise on Drones; Democrats Say Brennan Still Has Enough Backers
WASHINGTON—A confirmation vote on a new Central Intelligence Agency chief was tripped up by an old-fashioned filibuster as Sen. Rand Paul (R., Ky.) held the floor for much of Wednesday pressing for an administration promise to never use unmanned drones to kill Americans on U.S. soil who aren't involved in combat.
Instead of voting on John Brennan's nomination to head the CIA, the Senate was transfixed by the rare filibuster, which began shortly before noon and continued past midnight, finally ending nearly 13 hours after it began.
While the filibuster delayed Mr. Brennan's confirmation vote, it also appeared to energize Republicans who oppose his confirmation. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R., Ky.) said just before midnight that he would vote against Mr. Brennan.
The catalyst was a letter from Attorney General Eric Holder on Tuesday that said the U.S. has the authority to carry out drone strikes on American soil, but that the U.S. had no intention of doing so. The letter was prompted by Mr. Brennan's written answer last month to questions from the Senate Intelligence Committee, in which he wrote: "This Administration has not carried out drone strikes inside the United States and has no intention of doing so."
The responses from both Messrs. Holder and Brennan, who is President Barack Obama's top counterterrorism adviser, didn't clearly rule out the prospect, and that alarmed civil libertarians, human-rights advocates and some congressional aides.
Second-Term Shake-Up
President Barack Obama is naming new people to fill key posts in his second term, as some top officials leave. Here is a look at his second-term lineup.
During the filibuster, Mr. Paul repeatedly came back to the question of whether the U.S. government may kill an American linked to terrorism on U.S. soil. He read portions of news stories and opinion pieces, and talked at length about constitutional rights.
"My objection really is not so much to Brennan being in charge of the CIA," Mr. Paul said. "My objection is to the program and to the president not admitting that he can't do drone strikes in America."
Warning of the risks of a drone strike on a person at an outdoor cafe suspected of conspiring with a cousin in the Middle East, Mr. Paul said, "You should be charged, you should be imprisoned if they can make the charges stick. But they shouldn't just drop a Hellfire missile on your cafe experience."
The last time the Senate saw such a filibuster was on Dec. 10, 2010, when Sen. Bernie Sanders, an independent from Vermont, protested a budget deal worked out between Mr. Obama and House Speaker John Boehner (R., Ohio). Mr. Sanders spoke for 8½ hours before standing down.
That particular type of filibuster, where senators speak for hours, rarely occurs. A more common technique involves refraining from agreeing to the majority party's plans to schedule a vote, forcing the Senate majority leader to rely on the "cloture rule" to end delaying tactics. But the cloture vote requires a 60-vote supermajority. In the congressional session that ended last year, cloture was filed some 115 times, mostly by Majority Leader Harry Reid (D., Nev.).
Mr. Paul yielded to other senators who spoke, but he technically didn't give up the floor, because a break would have ended the filibuster.
By early evening, Mr. Reid made his own appearance to offer a deal: 90 minutes more to wrap up the discussion, followed by a vote on Mr. Brennan's nomination. No thanks, said Mr. Paul. So Mr. Reid declared there would be no vote Wednesday night.

Mr. Brennan's nomination cleared the Senate Intelligence Committee on Tuesday by a 12-3 vote, and Senate Democratic leaders had hoped to reach an agreement with Republicans to vote on the nomination Wednesday.
"I would be happy with a vote now—I've talked a lot today," Mr. Paul said late in the afternoon, saying he would yield if the Obama administration would put in writing that the drone program wouldn't kill Americans who aren't involved in combat. But Mr. Reid said he could extract no such promises, and he said the senators should come back on Thursday. "We're through for the night," he said.
The White House declined to comment on the matter.
Mr. Paul, who had promised to speak "for as long as I can hold up," was joined two hours after his filibuster started by Republican Sens. Mike Lee of Utah and Ted Cruz of Texas, who had questioned Mr. Holder at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing earlier Wednesday about U.S. drone policy. A growing list of other senators also spoke, including Republicans Marco Rubio of Florida and Saxby Chambliss of Georgia and Democratic Sen. Ron Wyden of Oregon.
The filibuster resonated beyond Washington, dominating the top trending topics on Twitter. At one point, Mr. Cruz came to the Senate floor to read some tweets so Mr. Paul "might understand how the country is responding."
"I appreciate you bringing news from the outside world," said Mr. Paul, who can't use electronic devices on the Senate floor.
