CRS Bowl
My name is Dallas and I have MTS.
I bought my first tank (since I was a kid) in the start of September. I know have 2 and want to start a shrimp bowl to sit on my desk.
I was reading a "how to" online article about the process and something didn't seem right to me so thought I would ask here.
Basically the author said to go with MGOCPM and a PFS cap which seems ok. Then plant it with whatever plants you wanted.
Right after that it said to add the shrimp. This doesn't seem right to me though. I am guessing I need to wait and allow the bowl to cycle?
From my experience with the dirt tank I am cycling now, the ammonia etc would be pretty high to start with. Would this not just kill the shrimp?
Yes, ammonia will kill the shrimp. Also, CRS aren't really suited IMO to a bowl-type set up. I'd go with something hardier like cherry shrimp.
yes you're going to want to cycle the bowl if you have the time. in the unlikely event that you are out of time and have no place to put shrimp into but the bowl, then just start out with massive amount of fast growing plants and give it plenty of light. you will hopefully soft-cycle the bowl (or at least avoid the harmful effects of a cycle as the plants use up the harmful compounds)...but this is certainly not guaranteed.
i think only lower grade CRS are suitable, and that's only if you can keep the temperature stable between winter and summer (summer will be the biggest issue).
I have kept CRS in my bowl before.
Ok, so maybe cherry red shrimp would be better if they are more hardy?
much better. cherries should have no problem breeding in a bowl like that compared to the more finicky crystals. most Neocaridina breeds will do fine in a bowl setting. I am currently keeping Yellow Shrimp in mine.
Ok cool I will go with those then.
I guess same applies though, need to wait until the bowl/cube has a chance to build up some bacteria to fight the ammonia etc?!
yes, what i would recommend is to setup the bowl with plants (maybe do a dry start for a couple of months) and run the bowl for as long as it takes to get lush healthy growth before adding the shrimp. you should run the bowl on roughly 8 hours of daylight for a fully planted bowl, and maybe do weekly water changes of about 30-50% just to get into the rhythm of taking care of it. then after a month or more try out a few shrimp, and test parameters with them in there. if anything happens, quickly do water changes to soften the effects of a possible cycle.
this is all assuming you are making a heaterless and filterless bowl for the shrimp. the plants, lighting and water quality will be keys here.
Thanks for the advice. I will set it all up worry about shrimp in the new year.
It is one hobby that requires patience which is an area of struggle for me. I want everything now!! :D
I hear you. I'm easing into BKKs and it's agony to go slow, but it's important to do it right.

Fortunately this has only happened once - and it was just my stupid cat getting tangled up in a plastic bag, getting scared, and knocking things off the counter.
Anyway, I gave my girlfriend the 92FS and grabbed the 45XD for myself.
My Five Seven is my new nightstand gun. But, in your scenario - I'd go for the 45 given your 3 choices.
Fortunately this has only happened once - and it was just my stupid cat getting tangled up in a plastic bag, getting scared, and knocking things off the counter.
Anyway, I gave my girlfriend the 92FS and grabbed the 45XD for myself.
We have two Australian Shepherds that would be barking their asses off. My wife & I both have full size 1911's in 9mm loaded on each side of the bed and my AR15 is loaded in the bedroom closet.
I would want the .45 for it's one stop power. I don't like the idea of a shotgun for home protection inside the house because I don't want stray shot hitting one of my family members.
Also, as far as a wheel gun and cocking back the hammer- don't do it! When I was training on my Air Force special operations team (Emergency Services Team) we did a training exercise involving a hostage rescue. I was the number two man on the entry team on this one (normally I was the marksman/sniper). Our point man had cocked his .38 (ya, that's what we had in the early 80's). As the exercise evolved we heard a click. The point man had squeezed the trigger a little to tight since it was in single action mode and he ended up shooting the hostage. He was told that this was a no, no but had cocked it anyway.
A lesson well learned without casualties.
http://www.firearmstactical.com/briefs5.htm, among other places.Geez, you'd better not tell that to the tens of thousands of people who have successfully defended their homes with shotguns over the past couple of centuries.Shotgun is a horrible choice, cause in a one on one struggle it can be used as leverage against you. Especially if the assailant(s) use the element of surprise or has an advantage in height/strength.
Properly employed, a shotgun is no more likely to be used against a home defender than any other gun. Yeah, if you don't know crap about weapon retention and decide to take a stroll through the house with your 28" barreled bird gun, the bad guy might take it. However, a trained and tactically aware person can move through a house pretty safely with a short (18"-20") shotgun. I can certainly do it with an M4, which isn't much shorter than a short shotgun.A good .45 JHP load is no more likely to perforate a human body than a good .38 Special, 9mm, or whatever else. Just look at the penetration depths. You can start at www.firearmstactical.com again..45 risks to be too powerful, and can go through an attacker, a wall and into someone else that you don't want it to.
Internet myths abound!
Of the three choices, I go with the .45. In my reality I grab the .41 mag and a .45 as backup
I get my G-21 from its resting place. I have night lights placed in each room for clearing the room at night.
Definately the 12-gauge for me. Grab it, stay in the room, and call 911. If I had family in other rooms that would necessitate going outside my own room, I would probably opt for the .45 and a light.
In my own reality, I only own a PPK. It stays loaded with corbon JHPs. If anyone wanted in our apartment at night, it wouldn't be that tough but, being a second floor studio, we would know long before they got in.
I reach for the phone to let the hospital get a good head start, because unless he is armed and has killed my Dog (in which case a bullet from my gun will be the least of his worries when I am done with this guy) Sam (the dog) has just torn a large chunk of his body as a chew toy. Then I slowly walk down the hall with my 12 gauge mossy…
I'd go for my .45 cause it has night sights. Plus the 12 ga would make hell of a mess. When I get Night sights on my Para P-14 it may be the go to solution. I used to keep a .357 Revolver as a pillow gun. But now it's my kimber. Also I have a few targets posted on my bedroom door with nice clover leafs on them.
It would currently be my 9mm with 124gr JHPs. I did look very closely at the Mossberg Persuader on the rack at Academy, but other than driving 50 miles out of town with a couple boxes of buckshot cartridges, a cell phone and a friend, I have nowhere to go to become proficient with a shotgun.
The 9mm, used effectively, should "persuade" any BG to stop what he's doing and crumple to the floor in a bloody heap. Any one of these weapons would have the neighbors awake and calling 911, but it's always a good idea to call for a meatwagon yourself. BG is handcuffed to a gurney (or in a body bag) and you head back to bed, maybe after screwing a board across the door or placing some other sort of anti-door-opening device like a burglar bar in place.
Interesting legal question; BG breaks in and confronts you holding the firearm of your choice, which you discharge into BG. Texas now has the castle doctrine, so your actions are perfectly legal, and you are practically immune from lawsuit from the BG or his next of kin. However, once shot, the BG bleeds on an expensive rug and knocks your TV off the wall on the way to the ground. Can you sue the BG/next of kin for cleaning and a new TV? Are you likely to get anything? Does homeowners' insurance cover shootout damage?
My pistol gripped 870 would probably do the job just fine, but my pocket 45ACP is usually close by. Also, my girlfriend's scary accurate with her USP compact 357sig!
Someone would be in for a world of hurt, but most likely just death.
I'd sue his A--...
Messing up my carpet... the nerve...
At least walk outside before you expire... bleed on the driveway!
I generally work late. But, A bump in the night isn't very uncommon in my house. I have 2 roommates who are your typical college kids. Stumbling in the door at 4:30 when the bars close. So I would generally think it was them. But, If it were the described situation. I'd reach right for the carry gun since i keep it bedside. My .45 is in a locked pistol bag, which is in a locked briefcase. (trying to be cautious.) I haven't purchased a shotgun, YET! Waiting for the girlfriend to stop taking all that excess money at the end of every month. I'll probably have to wait untill tax returns. Oh well, win some... lose some i guess.
same as i always say for home invasion, 12g w/buckshot. if someone breaks into my home in the middle of the night they are going to end up dead w/one blast.
I wouldn't grab the shotgun, at least not in my apartment. It's a two-story townhouse and to go from my room to the stairs, then to the rest of the downstairs other than half the living room, it's a straight 180-degree turn, which would be a lot easier with a handgun. Honestly if someone is dumb enough to break into the front door of my apartment, they're gonna hear my 9-month old pit bull shrieking from my room. I always keep the door latched to keep her from wandering downstairs and raiding the trash can, which she somehow manages to get into at least once a day without me knowing. She's adorable and a total sweetheart, but I've seen her when someone she doesn't know steps through the door, and it would scare me if I didn't know her. If I ever did feel someone had broken in, I would put her in her crate, grab my .40, and listen at the door. If I thought I could open it without being heard, I would do so, making sure my roommate's door was also closed. If he's in his room at night, it's completely shut. Then I would wait at the top of the steps and see if he was unlucky enough to show any part of his body. Kentucky has the Castle Doctrine, so yes, he would be shot. Twice in the crotch, then once in the crotch.
Not sure why you'd cage your fierce ally. Don't you want to scare the housebreaker? Maybe he'd surrender and you wouldn't have to shoot him in the crotch.
Just because you can shoot doesn't necessarily mean you should shoot.
i have a pt145 next to my bed on the night stand. it is somewhat hidden, so i dont have to worry about someone seeing and want to grab it. i only know where it is. i got a glock 19 in the drawer on the same night stand. i have a boxer that is very protective of his family and always makes some kind of noise when she dont know what it is. i also have a loud ass alarm when doors are forcebly opened and makes a beeping noise when opened reagularly. my 12 gauge shot gun is back home in texas so when my father buys his im bringing it back home to roost.

Garrett Pro-Pointer AT Pinpoint ProbeSuperb piece of kit.. Saves all the getting up and down and faffing around trying to locate finds that are not immediately visible.. Robust and waterproof so i don't need to worry about keeping it clean and dry on those wet and mucky days out in the field.. Saves so much time and effort and strain on the knees getting up and down.. The included holster fits nicely and attaches securely to my belt keeping it in place and ready to go in an instant..Tenchystu
Garrett Headphones Adapter AccessoryHandy piece of kit.. Fits nicely to my AT Pro with no awkward unsightly dangling cables..tenchystu
Garrett Treasure sound headphonesNice piece of kit, lightweight and comfortable to wear and not clostrophobic like traditional earcup type headphones.. My only wish would be for them to have a slightly heavier coiled type cable but overal for the money, great..tenchystu
Deus control boxIt's a Deus control box! As expected really. However, there was no instructions nor lead supplied which foxed me for a bit. Had to look on internet to get the manual and then figure out that I couldn't use my mini-usb 3 lead to connect the control box to the computer to update. Hour later, found a suitable lead (a sat nav lead) which worked. I would have liked to at least have had the lead to plug it in after paying 609 quid!EssJay
XP PinpointerI haven't had the pointer for long, in fact only taken it out once but, what a difference it made to me. It is expensive and in reality, does it do a better job than any other pointer, in all honesty probably not but, working with it ringing in my headphones or looking at the display made an incredible difference allowing me to move on much quicker, so I'm very happy. Quality as you would expect very high, however, not sure about the strength in the belt clip spring it's ok but just a little on the weak side especially if like me you clip it onto a shoulder bag strap.John B.
Fantastic customer serviceI have just gone over to the cscope 6mxi, It has brilliant iron reject, it very fast and we'll made ,And not only is it made in Britain but there customer service is without doubt the best I've ever come across, It maybe an old brand that doesn't have flashy adds ,But the cscope 6mxi can hold its own against anything else on the market.Clark fox

St George Hotel and Spa
Very dated hotel, looks like it's not been decorated in years, with chipped paintwork and dirty looking carpets.
Our stay was made particularly unpleasant due to large Christmas party going on underneath us with very loud music until 1 am which we were not warned about. I've nothing against loud music or parties in the right place, but on this occasion I was expecting a relaxing weekend break in Harrogate; what I got was very little sleep in a tired looking, pretty dirty hotel. I will not be going to again. I don't think the hotel website is a fair representation of the actual standard of The George. This is a shame because the building is historic and structurally beautiful, in the heart of a beautiful town. Very disappointing indeed.

Sacrificing comfort for location...
Good location in the centre of Harrogate.
Difficult to find if driving there and more difficult to park because hotel doesn't have many spaces. Breakfast buffet was a bit bland but food ordered from the menu was much better. My wife had ham+eggs and said it was lovely. Corridor outside our room was noisey because the floor was very springy and creaky. Shower never delivered hot water, tepid was the best it managed.

A lovely stay, central to the area I was working.
Welcoming and friendly staff, who went the extra mile to make my stay enjoyable. Food requires some improvement, however good value for money overall.

St George hotel review
Our room the decor was shabby the bathroom had a broken sink & peeling paint the corridors really need a spruce up
Pleasant enough. No complaints at all. Wouldn't hesitate to return
Read mixed reviews of this hotel after I had booked it, and recent ones too, but my experience was a pleasant one and I didn't really see anything to complain about.
The room was basic but clean with a very nice en-suite. The staff were very pleasant. I can understand why people would say they could be more helpful, but I actually find staff can sometimes find that stifling and be left to it so I feel that is down to personal preference. I found them helpful enough. I paid £1.50 a day for breakfast included in my booking and was easily worth that and was nice enough. I unfortunately did not have time to try the leisure facilities provided at the hotel. The price was perhaps at the extreme end of its bracket in some ways, but not comparatively for the town, therefor it's hard to argue with it, and the hotel is very central which should also be taken into account. All in all my stay was pleasant enough and I have absolutely no complaints at all and wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

Rude unfriendly receptionist ruined my stay
Pleasant place to stay it was just such a shame that the receptionists made me feel unwelcome and a nuisance to him.
On checking in I asked what time the restaurant served dinner from and was met with a scrunched up face stating as I didn't book a table that morning it's unlikely id be able to eat there. So I asked can you see if there's I can and he told me that I needed to when the restaurant opened.. He and I were the only two people around so he wasn't rushed off his feet to make a quick phone call. So I was forced to wander around the city to find somewhere that was happy to cater for me.
In the morning the same grumpy ogre failed to enquire if I enjoyed my stay, if everything was ok for me so that sums it up he couldn't give a damn. Breakfast was ok but not a vast selection to choose from.
The swimming pool smelt of old sweaty men's socks due to old sweaty men having a steam or sauna and not showering before coming in I guess so that was an experience.
Would I stay here again, possibly once I'm like the majority of the guests who were staying, over 70 and have lost my sense of smell, appetite and I'm on a coach tour of the area with other senior citizens.
Overpriced compared to other rival hotels nearby that offer far more.

Only stay if you can not get anywhere better and YOU MUST be in centre of Harrogate
The title is the summary 1.
Car park had vans all over taking two spaces on four bays
2. Front of house is sloppy to say the least - waited 10 minutes to check in
3. On arrival complaints from other guests that rooms cold - advised due to building work it was only 1 degree outside so surely they should have thought about this
4. No food whatsoever. - due to building work what a joke charging top rate prices and bottom rate service
5. On check out it took 15 minutes to check me out at 6.45 with no other guests around - it wasn't that they were busy with breakfast as no food - complete joke
6. The room whilst cold was clean and tidy but the décor requires serious modernisation
Would not stay here again.

The stockmarket closed slightly lower yesterday as investors continued to show concern over National Australia Bank's currency trading woes and major miners BHP Billiton and Rio Tinto eased.
NAB was the only one of the big four banks to close weaker.
In the resources sector, oil and gas producer Woodside Petroleum rallied.
Global media player News Corp finished virtually unchanged.
On Wall St, the Dow Jones Industrial Average ended down 71.85 points at 10,528.66 after lower earnings from manufacturing heavyweights 3M and United Technologies disappointed investors.
Australia's benchmark S&P/ASX 200 index was two points lower at 3306.5 while the All Ordinaries fell 0.1 to 3320.7.
On the Sydney Futures Exchange, the March share price index contract was down six points at 3304.0 - a 2.5 point discount to the underlying index - on a volume of 12,881 contracts.
"It was pretty flat all round," said ABN Amro private client adviser Jonathan McLachlan.
"But NAB's come back - it's still hurting."
NAB closed 34c lower at $29.20, a seven-week low, as the bank's leadership came directly into question over the currency trading scandal.
Among the other banks, ANZ rose 14c to $17.85, CBA 16c to $30.61 and Westpac 23c to $16.58.
Austock Brokers private client adviser Peter Cuthbertson said some investors were switching from NAB to the other banks.
In the resources sector, BHP Billiton fell 14c to $11.70. Rio Tinto lost 58c to $36.52 despite saying demand for all its iron ore products remained strong.
Australia's largest oil and gas company, Woodside, jumped 42c to $15.46 as it posted a larger-than-forecast 2003 production result.
In the media sector, Foxtel launched the one and a half year rollout of its digital pay TV service, saying it expected to offer more than 130 channels and a range of interactive services.
The company said it expected 35 to 40 per cent market penetration by 2008.
Foxtel quarter-owner Publishing and Broadcasting fell 9c to $12.22 and half-owner Telstra 2c to $4.96.

Retailer Coles Myer rose 7c to $7.47 and supermarket rival Woolworths fell 5c to $11.79.
Gold stocks were mixed. The price of gold in Sydney was $US412.375 per fine ounce, up $US5.925 on Tuesday's close.
Among other stocks, internet search engine marketer LookSmart dipped 0.5c to 13c as it said chief executive Jason Kellerman would step down and announced plans to halve its workforce after losing a vital contract.
Shares in fashion house Oroton plunged 45c to $2.45 after the company warned that its Marcs brand faced a $1 million after-tax loss in the first half of the current financial year.
National turnover was 1.14 billion shares worth $2.85 billion, with 614 stocks up, 633 down and 379 unchanged.

Cassatt, a new company created by former executives of Sun, BEA, and Oracle, among others, will officially launch this week. "The focus here is all about horizontally scaled systems out of commodity hardware, and to make that work requires technology that is not available in [existing] products," said Rich Green, executive vice president of products at Cassatt and former vice president of Java and tools at Sun.
This story, "Former Sun, BEA execs forge grid venture" was originally published by InfoWorld.

Roger Deago (1-1) was cooked for seven runs on eight hits and a walk over an inning and two-thirds to take the loss. The left-hander had yielded three runs over his first 8.1 innings with the Beavers, striking out 14. Deago had allowed more than three runs twice previously this year with San Antonio, giving up two runs or less in six of his 11 starts and yielding six runs on 10 hits on June 6 with the Missions.
Adrian Burnside was pegged for three runs on four hits and a walk while striking out three over 2.1 innings. He inherited two runners, allowing one to score. Eight of the 14 runners he has inherited over two leagues have come around to score against the left-hander. Burnside had given up runs in two of his first nine outings in Triple-A, allowing three runs over that span. He has given up runs in six of his 18 appearances over two leagues.
San Antonio won 9-5 over Frisco (Rangers)
Chad Huffman extended his hitting streak to six games, notching his first multi-hit game since joining Double-A San Antonio. He ended the game with three hits in five at bats, including a two-run homer – his first in Double-A. Huffman belted 15 homers in 84 games with Lake Elsinore while adding 19 doubles, two triples and 76 RBIs. He hit .307 with 63 runs scored while adding 42 walks.
Edwin Moreno made his system debut, working the ninth inning and allowing two runs on a hit and a walk while striking out two. Moreno, 27, went 8-3 with a 2.71 ERA over 17 games, including 14 starts, in the Mexican Pacific League this year. In 103 innings he allowed 76 hits and walked 17 while striking out 80. Moreno last pitched in affiliated baseball for Double-A Reading in the Phillies system in 2005.
Lake Elsinore won 11-7 over Lancaster (Red Sox)
Craig Cooper went 1-for-2 with two walks and a hit batsman while scoring three runs as he inches his average (.298) back towards .300, spending three days under for the first time since May 12. He was in a 0-for-16 slump prior to going 3-for-7 over his last two games. Cooper has scored six runs over the last two contests and has touched home in seven of his last eight games, scoring 13 runs over that span. He is hitting .257 with one homer over his last 38 games.
Brooks Dunn (2-3) escaped the blown up ERA's with a fantastic outing to earn the win. The lefty allowed just one run on four hits and three walks while striking out three over six innings to extend the Storm winning streak to 10 games. Dunn has surrendered four runs, three earned, over his last three starts – spanning 19 innings. He has posted a 2.30 ERA over six starts in the California League after notching a 1.59 ERA in 13 relief appearances.
Fort Wayne lost 4-3 to Clinton (Rangers)
Aaron Breit (2-10) became the first pitcher in the Midwest League to record double-digit losses, and fell one behind organizational leader Ryan Ketchner for the most losses in the system. The right-hander went an inning and two-thirds, yielding two runs on two hits and three walks, including a homer. It is the fourth time in five games that Breit has walked three or more batters and the sixth time this year. He has lost six straight decisions.
Ernesto Frieri did not allow a baserunner over an inning and a third, stranding one inherited runner and striking out two. Of the 27 runners he has inherited this season only seven have touched home plate. Frieri had allowed six runs over his previous 9.1 innings on 10 hits and five walks. He has, however, struck out 11 in his last seven frames. The right-hander has yielded runs in 10 of his 33 outings on the year.
Eugene won 8-7 over Yakima (Diamondbacks)
Cory Luebke tossed no-run, no-hit ball over four innings of relief, striking out two. The left-hander has allowed just two earned runs over 17 innings this season. Luebke has also not issued a walk this season. He had given up 12 hits over his last 12 innings but pitched to the minimum on Thursday to pick up the win. Luebke has given up just two hits in 17 at bats to the leadoff hitter of an inning.
Danny Payne went 3-for-4 with a run scored on Thursday, adding two stolen bases to give him 12 on the year. The outfielder has just four multi-hit games in 25 contests and despite a .241 average he has been on base in all but two games for the Emeralds. With his 29 walks, Payne owns a .442 on base percentage, which ranks in the top five in the Northwest League. Payne has not bee caught stealing this year and has two multi-steal games. He did ground into a double play for his lone out.
Luis Durango extended his on base streak to 19 games on Thursday with a 2-for-5 night that included two runs scored. He is 32-for-86 over the life of the streak, a .372 average, with a .420 on base percentage. He has also scored 21 runs during the streak and has touched home in six straight games and eight of his last nine. Durango also has a nine-game hitting streak, going 15-for-40. It is his second hitting streak of nine games of more this year.
AZL Padres won 3-2 over AZL Giants in 10 innings
Brian Joynt doubled in the winning run in the bottom of the tenth to give the Padres a walk-off win. It was his second double of the season and the game, as the third baseman also scored a run. Joynt had been in a 1-for-11 slump prior to Thursday's game but still sports a .409 on base percentage in limited action. Joynt did whiff twice, giving him 17 strikeouts in 59 at bats over two leagues, fanning once every 3.47 at bats.
Brad Chalk made his professional debut after suffering through a back injury that had him sidelined since being signed. The outfielder went 1-for-2 at the dish with two walks and an RBI. Chalk, taken with the 87th overall pick out of Clemson, batted .366 (59-for-161) with 10 doubles, two triples, 18 RBIs, 26 runs scored and nine stolen bases in 45 games for the Tigers this past season. He led Clemson this season in batting average and on-base percentage (.483).
Tyler Davis (2-0) tossed two innings of scoreless relief, allowing one hit and a walk to earn the win. The right-hander has allowed one run over his last seven outings, spanning eight innings of work. Over that span he has yielded just four hits. Davis has, however, walked a batter in three straight games. The Hawaiian native has allowed one hit in 16 at bats to left-handed hitters and the opposition has a .130 average with runners in scoring position.

Blog ››› ››› OLIVER WILLIS
After watching Dick Morris' most recent interview on Fox News with Sean Hannity, you might wonder why there wasn't a flashing 1-800 number and a reminder that operators were "standing by," because the infamously ethically challenged Fox News political analyst had a lot of causes to crassly promote in a small window of time. All of them had one thing in common: Dick Morris.
In case your head is spinning from all the pitches, here is a recap of Morris' product lineup:
- His website, DickMorris.com. Morris apparently profits from his website by selling web ads on it via Google Adsense, while also soliciting subscribers for e-mail lists that he has used in conjunction with various conservative/Republican groups and candidates to raise campaign funds.
- A new project called "Project 100" in co-operation with Michael Reagan's ReaganPAC. Morris describes the venture as an effort "to raise our sights and do independent expenditures in an additional twenty or so districts to give the Republicans in these newly marginal seats a big boost. We hope to raise $2 million so as to be able to put $100,000, on average, into each of these districts."
- AmericansForNewLeadership.com, who has been running ads attacking Sen. Harry Reid in Nevada. Previously we noted that Morris has solicited funds for Americans For New Leadership via his website and has advised them on their advertising strategy all while soliciting funds for them on Hannity without disclosure.
- His direct-to-video movie Battle For America featuring Newt Gingrich and Ann Coulter. The movie's website describes it as a "call to action by Dick Morris to take back our country" and "a searing look at the ongoing conflict between 'Constitutional Conservatives' and an out-of-touch, arrogant, and ever-expanding central government." The film was apparently created in cooperation with David Bossie's Citizens United.
How much would you expect to pay for all these fabulous items? Well, considering the pitchman and his ethical track record, you should probably think twice.

Glasgow-based ex-model and singer Sharon Martin is the frontwoman for Flesh - the latest project by Grammy award winner, drummer and record producer, Stephen Lironi.
They have penned a song called Edith for their New York disco and art-pop album, Sick Electricity, which comes out later this year.
Sharon said: "The track is dedicated to anyone with the name Edith.
"But the Edith of my time has been Miss Bowman.
"She was who I had in mind when we recorded it. We've sent her the track and hope that she likes it."

Welcome, Mayor Vincent Gray
If you made it to the inauguration ceremonies for Mayor Vincent Gray at the Walter Washington Convention Center on a bitter cold Sunday, you might be forgiven if you got caught up in a strong, surface sense of Déjà vu.
Four years isn't all that long of a time after all; a lot of these same people were there for the inauguration of a triumphant new mayor named Adrian Fenty four years ago, especially on the dais. Up there, it was practically an instant, but slow-mo replay, except that somebody had subtly re-arranged the seats at the captain's table. In fact, there was a new captain, and a new exec officer, which made all the difference.
Fenty sat a little off to the side, along with other dignitaries like former mayor Anthony Williams, newly elected Cardinal Donald Wuerl, the Catholic Archbishop of Washington DC, Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley, U.S. Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton, incoming Prince George's County Executive Rushern L. Baker, III and other civic and political dignitaries.
All the council members who were up for re-election had returned, except that At Large Councilman Kwame Brown was now the new Chairman of the City Council, which temporarily left an empty seat, at least at the ceremonies. So the swearing in ceremonies, complete with an array of judges and council family members, very much resembled the same ceremonies four years ago, except that Ward 3 Council member Mary Cheh did not bring Supreme Court Justice Ruth Ginsberg to swear her in. Instead, District Judge Ellen Segal Huvelle did the honors. Cheh, exuberant, wearing an arm cast and accompanied by her family, gave the shortest speech of all those being sworn in, which perhaps allowed Gray to be sworn in as Mayor just under the noon deadline.
The apparently ageless WUSA 9 reporter and anchor Bruce Johnson did the emcee honors again, contributing to the déjà vu all over again. So did the presence of many Gray supporters, ex-council members, ex-mayors and public officials who had not so far found themselves without a jobs as happens with a change in administrations.
We ran into former council member Harold Brazil, an attorney who said he was glad for the new Mayor and keeping busy, "Trying to make a little money."
Williams, who served two successful if sometimes difficult terms as mayor, told us, "I'm optimistic. I think Vincent Gray has the opportunity and the ability to be a great mayor, a terrific leader."
Williams supported, if not outright endorsed, Fenty during the campaign because, as he explained on Mark Plotkin's political hour on WTOP, where he appeared with former Mayors Sharon Kelly and Marion Barry, "I believe in supporting sitting mayors." He acknowledged on the show that his support did not go unnoticed in his family, with his mother Virginia Williams being an ardent Gray supporter.
"These are going to be tough times," he told us. "But I think Vincent has the gifts to bring the city together to face the budget challenges that are already here. " Williams looked fit and comfortable, as if private sector life agrees with him.
We ran into new City Administrator Allan Lew, who was appointed to the city's number two position after what was generally seen as a very successful stint as Operations Officer for the DC School District. Robert Bobb, one of the former city administrators under Williams and once school board president (until the board was basically shunted into obscurity by Fenty's mayoral takeover of the schools) was here. Bobb is currently heading the Detroit school system, but rumors haves been floating around about him being a possibility for the next chancellor. Bobb, it should be noted, still lives in Washington. Kaya Henderson, Michelle Rhee's No. 2 person, remains the interim chancellor where by all accounts she has done a yeoman job. Still, Gray has remained mum about his choice.
The inauguration was centered around the same theme that Gray used for a campaign slogan: "One City." It is an ironic theme in some ways. The 2010 campaign, which resulted in a convincing victory for Gray, exposed deep fissures of race, class and economics that continue to exist. Gray swept the poorer and mostly black wards of the city where unemployment is abnormally high and development and jobs lag, while Fenty swept the city's affluent and white wards.
Gray struck the "One City" theme early and loudly, and with tremendous passion and conviction. If there is a man who could bring the city together in any sort of effective, lasting, and emotional way, it may be Gray. He rattled off the names of the city's great neighborhoods as they are mirrored in the city's divided whole, giving them the quality of unique and special places. "The next chapter in the city of the District of Columbia won't be written by a single author, but with the pens of 600,000 residents from all eight wards and all walks of life committed to a vision of One City. Our City."
He spoke vehemently about statehood and how he would continue to fight for it on this day – at least before the usual realities about such an endeavor set in, he sounded like he was the man for the job.
Gray, with his children and grandchildren in the audience, talked often about going to Dunbar High School, about attending George Washington University, about growing up in the struggling parts of this city. More than anyone, he has the kind of roots to the city and its neighborhoods that make him a resident-citizen-neighbor kind of mayor, and one who is instantly recognizable in his passions and concerns.
Still, many of the residents of the wards where he lost don't really know him (made clear in a misguided, but solidly effective write-in attempt for Fenty in the general election). It's not clear whether a series of town hall meetings in every ward of the city made a dent into the perception of Gray as a mystery man.
At the inauguration, he presented himself and showed himself to be the man of decency, grace and class that his supporters and his record have always indicated. At 68, he is the oldest mayor this city has ever had, and perhaps one of the more cautious. But he doesn't lack passion or empathy for the city where we all live. Case in point: while all the re-elected candidates as well as the new chairman offered praise to various degrees of intensity, often in perfunctory fashion, Gray did a little more. He walked up to the man with whom he had engaged in an often-bitter campaign and embraced him in a bear hug after praising him profusely.
From the dais, you could hear the noise of heart-felt rhetoric and the confetti of home grown relationships—Brown, Yvette Alexander of Ward 7, and Harry Thomas Jr. of Ward 5 are all Wilson High School Graduates, a fact which they all duly noted. Gray laughed and said, "That just shows you it takes only one Dunbar graduate to deal with three Wilson grads." This is home grown stuff, warm and affectionate, like PTA talk and town meeting bragging rights.
For now, Gray has the bragging rights. He's the man. He's the man who's got to tackle an ever-growing budget crisis and a deficit that will be swelling to $400 million over the next three years. He's the man who has to deal with the passionately high expectations—for jobs, for attention, for development—from the wards that elected him, without alienating the residents of the wards that didn't. He's the man who has to deal with a congress that is historically hostile to District needs and will be only more so under the new GOP stalwarts. He's the man who will have to lead tough decisions on budget cuts and, as he indicated, possible tax increases.
To quote Mayor Vincent Gray, it's time to "get to work."

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Our boy "tries" to eat rocks too, during walks. We are lucky enough to catch him and we take them out of his mouth and immediately distract him to get his mind off rocks. Keep doing it and he'll get the point.
We went through the same thing with our then 11 wk old puppy. I saw the rock, grabbed him to take it out of his mouth and he swallowed. The rock was about 3/4". I was worried enough to bring him to the nearest ER (mistake, that place sucks). We were there for 3 hrs before they did an xray. Showed the rock was in his stomach still. They said "lets wait and see" but we think he won't be able to pass it. Called my vet tech, and vet. They said feed 1/2 can of pumpkin immediately and for the next few meals. This will cushion the rock as it passes through. The next day I took him in for another xray and it had made it to the colon. They gave him a few enemas and he pooped it out. I still have it. Cost was about $500.
They said to keep him away from the rocks. Since then he has eaten another one that I know of, I did the same pumpkin thing and hoped for the best.
Apparently GSDs are know to be rock eaters and most grow out of it. Mine took less than 24hr to go through his system. But the vet said it could take up to 3 or 4 days.
Good luck with it. Let us know what happens. Keep an eye on the typical signs of obstructions.
Rocks can cause obstructions. I do know of several dogs for whom it caused problems. Keep her on a leash in the areas with rocks. Work on teaching her a "Leave it" command and give her a big reward (little piece of yummy food). "Drop it" is another command I teach very early with puppies. Comes in super handy when they are putting everything in their mouth!
Also, for the person whose dog is chewing on rocks: my first gsd, Massie, did that. At age 10 she had barely any teeth left in her mouth. I would strongly discourage that.
I wouldn't worry excessively about the rocks. Our current dog chews on them, previous dogs did too. I would discourage it as able, give them plenty of safer chews.
Yes, our 6 month old is underfoot a lot. One has to really watch out. I just try to step carefully when she is around. I few light steps shouldn't cause injury.
|Not an expert here, but I experienced the same with my girl when she was younger. Our yard has large sections of small stones and while it was suggested that we put a temporary fence (like chicken wire) around or over the sections, we just decided to remain by our pup's side whenever she was outside. The fence probably would have made things easier as we were constantly putting our fingers in our pup's mouth to get stones out, and even then she would slip some past us as she would poop and there would be small stones in it. I too worried about obstructions in her intestines but thankfully we never had that issue, she managed to poop them out fine. So I'd say fencing (if the stones are in sections) or just constant vigilance. I'm sure your pup will learn or grow out of it like ours did. From what my Vet said, it's a common occurrence with pups!
Pup probs
There are two things I am concerned about. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!
First is that, my 8 week old puppy is eating rocks. Whenever he is outside and walking around, if sees one on the ground he will immediately start chewing on it/breaking them up in his mouth. Sometimes he swallow them, sometimes he spits them out. I have not noticed any rocks in his poop, but when I see him doing at it I tell him "Leave it" and if I can tell it is a big rock I will pry his mouth open and pull them out. Today I caught him with a bigger sized rock than usual in his mouth, and when I went to pry it out of his mouth he actually SWALLOWED IT WHOLE. It wasn't a big rock, but it definitely was bigger than a pebble. In my head I knew that was not going to be good for him, so I googled this and found out that it can cause serious problems with his intestines. He seems to be acting fine but I am freaking out!! Will he be ok? What do I do? I have a vet appointment for next week and I will DEFINITELY bring this up to her, but until then I will watch him like a hawk to avoid any more rock eating. He is never alone outside, but he is so quick to eat them he gets past me sometimes. What do I do?
The second issue is accidentally hurting him. There have been a few times where he is right under my feet and I accidentally step on a paw, or I don't see him behind me and whack him with elbow when I'm doing something. Earlier today he snuck up behind me when I was plugging in an air freshener and started biting me, it surprised me and I jumped and accidentally whacked him in the nose. He cried and started sneezing and I felt so terrible. I pet him and told him I was sorry, but I know he doesn't get it . I know these kind of things will happen sometimes, but how do I handle it? Whenever I do it I worry it will scar him.
I feel like a terrible mom who doesn't know how to do anything right! lol

About MeONLY TAKE SHOOTING DEPENDS ON THE ASSIGNMENT, PREFERABLY PAY WORK.
My charging is $70/hr
I'm a recent BFA graduated from OCAD University, and besides from making art I'm also enjoy expressing art through photos.
I'm a body modification enthusiastic, every work that's on my body speaks out my personality. I'm really flexible of different style of photoshoot, from alternative fashion, fetish, fantasy, pin up, to artistic nudes; out of all the styles, I'm a big fan of Gothic/Victorian fashion.
Whenever I work with photographer, I would always like to get to know them before anything photo shoot is going to happened. Adapting trust and relationship with other artists is a must for me, and also it's a good possibility of making friendship.
Majority of the time I would preferably be the one who do my makeup, sometimes there's exception but it's extremely rare.
Right now I feel much confident of my modeling skills and would like to take another step up, if you have any interesting concept please feel free to contact me.
Note: I do NOT take any orgasm shoot or any pornography-like photoshoot.

Hey guys, I have a question about weapons in Reckoning. Will weapons degrade over time, and need repair? If so, how quickly do they degrade, and what system is used to repair them (Blacksmithing, perhaps)? Also, will unique items degrade? Will we lose the use of our loot if we choose not to invest in the Blacksmithing tree? Thanks! By Baseblgabe
A: Your favorite new piece of gear won't completely break or vanish, but all weapons and armor will eventually require repairs to stay effective - including unique and player crafted ones. And while they do degrade, you'll be able to get through several quest or dungeons before your new sword needs to be sharpened. To repair them you have two options use repair kits or speak to a NPC. Anyone can use a repair kit regardless of their skill choices, but if you choose to invest in Blacksmithing, each kit you use will restore a higher amount of the equipments max durability. The NPC blacksmiths can be found throughout the world, and will gladly fix your gear in exchange for some of your gold! By Andrew "Andre" Frederiksen, Producer

On Tuesday, WBC #1 World Contender Chris Arreola (35-2, 30 KOs) and Olympian brothers Javier and Oscar Molina showcased their boxing skills for media. Right here, you can find a collection of Arreola workout photos, and a video as well, along with notes on the upcoming event. As you can see from the above photos, Arreola seems to be in pretty good condition, all things considering, for himself. And he seems focused on the upcoming clash and the opportunity it provides. On April 27, Arreola challenges the heavy-hitting WBC #2 World Contender Bermane "B.Ware" Stiverne (22-1-1, 20 KOs) in a 12-round WBC World Championship Heavyweight Elimination bout with the winner guaranteed to fight for the World Championship in his next bout. Also featured in 8 and 4 round bouts, respectively, twins Javier and Oscar Molina, who will enter the ring prior to the start of the Arreola-Stiverne bout.

Ask Mac Questions and Get Answers from Experts ASAP
Hi and Welcome. My Name is XXXXX XXXXX I look forward to assisting you today with your question.
I need some information to assist you better.
What happens when you open them ?
Are you getting any errors ?
What version of Mac OS X are you using ?
And what version of Office is this ? 2008 or 2011
Hi! When I click on the word icon, i have a window open titled "Microsoft word cannot be opened because of a problem". Problem details (let me know which one you need):
Process: Microsoft word.
path: ...
build info...
code type...
parent processs: launchd [116]
OS Version: Mac OS X 10.7.5
Report version: 9
Execption tyep: EXC_BREAKPOINT (SIGTRAP)
Dyld error message:
Symbol not found...
Code type: X86 (native)
microsoft office 2011
I assume I should have an installation file. I don't have an office disc.
I did not download it, and don't have the serial number. I am a university professor, travelling abroad. All was installed by our IT department back home. This happened to me once before, and I think the IT guy solved the problem by somehow "updating" the programs.
The problem was that none of the applications just worked. I was able, for example, to update the adobe reader program, and it now works. I am not sure how to "update" the microsoft word, or the other microsoft applications.
I am not sure how to go to the Macintosh HD.
I was able to click on my "Windows 7 Applications" folder at the bottom right on my screen, choose "applications" menu, there i see "microsoft officde 2011" menu, I click on that and a folder nemd "microsoft office 2011" opened. There, there are items for MS excell, outlook, powerpoint, word. When I click on word, I get the same error window I wrote about before.
Clicking on excel, I get a simlar problem window. Same "code type", i.e. X86 (Native).
Sure. When I accessed it this way, I get the same response (problem window).
I don't see any duplicates of office applications under the microsoft office 2011 folder.
Great, it worked! I first had to install the service pack 1 (the office update didn't update prior to me doing that), and then the office update, and now it all runs. Thanks!

A couple of weeks ago, Pandora held a breakfast at their Marble Arch store to introduce their Essence Zodiac charms and bracelets.
Sophie and I rose bright and early to head to the flagship store. We were promised a marvellous breakfast spread, which is exactly what we were treated to; there were plenty of pancakes with blueberry jam, smoked salmon canapes, croissants and pain au chocolat to be scoffed.
There was a palm reader and we both sat and experienced our futures laid out before us. I'm to have no stability until I hit 33 but money will never be an issue - win some, lose some, right?
The zodiac charms are simple but effective. You pick a bracelet to host your charm on and you can add others from the essence range, beside your zodiac sign charm. There's a huge variety of charms to pick from; Pandora are offering everything from respect to wisdom to freedom. Pandora are enabling you to convey your inner self through delicate charms, for all to see and appreciate.
Head over to Pandora to check out the Essence collection here.
