They creep into your home, seeping through cracks, drifting through drywall. Odorless, colorless, and tasteless, carbon monoxide (CO) and radon are two toxic gases that can seriously harm you — without your knowing it. Fortunately, you can protect yourself and your family from these invisible killers.
CO is produced when fuel is burned. Potential sources in your home: a faulty furnace, a malfunctioning stove, an improperly vented fireplace. Generators and gas-powered equipment can also emit CO. Using them indoors can result in dangerous amounts of the gas in your home.
At low levels, CO may cause fatigue. Higher concentrations can spawn more serious symptoms, including headaches, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, confusion, and coordination problems. Inhaling too much CO can even lead to death. One study estimated that an average of 439 people die every year from CO poisoning. Thousands more are hospitalized.
A CO detector can alert you to rising amounts of this gas before it becomes lethal. Experts recommend installing one on each level of your home outside sleeping areas. You should consider a detector even if you live in a multifamily dwelling without fuel-burning appliances. A recent study documented how CO can move through drywall, making you vulnerable to the gas if it emanates from your neighbors' homes.
As the element uranium naturally breaks down, it turns into radon. This gas then seeps up through the soil into the air you breathe. Radon can infiltrate your house through cracks or holes in the foundation. It may also enter through your water supply, particularly if you have a well or another groundwater source.
When trapped inside your home, accumulating radon may cause lung cancer. A recent review of 22 studies on the gas found that people with the most exposure were 29% more likely to develop the disease. Smoking plus radon exposure elevates your risk for lung cancer even more.
A simple test can detect radon in your home. You can buy a test kit at your local hardware store. Place it in your basement or the lowest lived-in level of your home for 2 or more days. If the test shows radon levels of 4 or more picocuries per liter of air, experts recommend fixing your home to reduce exposure.
Other hazardous materials may be hiding in your home. Find out more here.
A detector can alert you to CO already in the air. But to help prevent CO problems before they start, pay attention to and properly maintain fuel-burning appliances and devices. Follow these safety tips from the Consumer Product Safety Commission:
Don't run a car engine or other fuel burner in a garage, even if the doors are open.
Regularly inspect your vehicle for exhaust leaks.
Before cold weather begins, check furnaces, water heaters, wood stoves, portable heaters, and your chimney for leaks and cracks.
Never use a barbecue grill in a garage or other enclosed areas.
When camping, use battery-powered heaters or flashlights in tents, trailers, and motor homes. Never use unvented fuel-burning appliances in enclosed areas, such as a vehicle, camper, trailer, home, or tent.

James J. Whalen
President, Ithaca College, 1975-1997
James J. Whalen was inaugurated as president of Ithaca College on October 18, 1975. The Whalen inauguration followed a ceremonial pattern from processional to recessional that included a guest speaker, presentation of the charter, investiture of the symbols of office, remarks by the new president, and greetings from the president of the Student Council and the chairperson of Faculty Council. Music was provided by the Ithaca College Orchestra, conducted by Pamela Gearhart.
The Ithaca Journal reported that about 400 people attended the ceremony and that the new president made brief remarks, which centered on a letter he had received the previous week from a friend. A quoted excerpt from the Journal article: " 'I'll do the best I can. I'll try not to give you rhetoric, but deeds. I hope we'll be able to work together and plan together for a better Ithaca College.' "

text: JACKSONVILLE BEACH, Fla., May 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Atlantic BancGroup, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATBC), the parent company of Oceanside Bank, with four locations in the Jacksonville Beaches and East Jacksonville, Florida, announced today its first quarter 2010 results. Atlantic BancGroup, Inc. is a publicly traded bank holding company, trading on the NASDAQ Capital Market, symbol ATBC. Consolidated losses totaled $547,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2010, which compares with a net loss of $68,000 for the same period of 2009. While we posted a year-to-year increase in net interest income before provision for loan losses of $291,000, or 16.5%, our first quarter 2010 results were depressed by continued loan losses that contributed to an increase in our provision for loan losses of $638,000, higher FDIC deposit insurance assessments, which rose $207,000, and a reduction in income tax benefits of $150,000. The loss per basic and diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2010, was $0.44 compared with the loss per basic and diluted share of $0.05 for the same period in 2009. Consolidated total assets at March 31, 2010, were $285.9 million, an increase of 3.0% over March 31, 2009. Consolidated deposits grew 7.1% while consolidated net loans declined 6.8% over the same period of 2009, with consolidated deposits at $258.5 million and consolidated net loans at $189.6 million at March 31, 2010. (Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20030522/ATBCLOGO) Severe declines in real estate values, high unemployment, business failures and residential foreclosures in our market areas and throughout Florida and the U.S. have continued to adversely affect our operating results and our loan portfolio. This has also resulted in many of our customers being unable to make payments on their loans and we are required by banking regulations to downgrade these loans and reserve against future potential losses in our loan portfolio. Additionally, we are also required to increase our reserves for those customers whom we have assisted by proactively altering their payment plans to allow them flexibility in continuing to make payments. As a result, we have adopted an aggressive strategy of significantly increasing our loan loss reserves for these potential future losses. As we progress through 2010, we will continue to aggressively, but prudently, manage our non-performing assets and explore strategic alternatives to improve our capital position. The cornerstone of our strategic plan to rebuild our capital was announced last week. On May 10, 2010, Jacksonville Bancorp, Inc. ("JAXB"), the bank holding company for The Jacksonville Bank, and Atlantic announced the signing of a definitive merger agreement providing for the merger of Atlantic into JAXB. The merger agreement also contemplates the consolidation of Oceanside into The Jacksonville Bank. Additionally, JAXB announced the signing of a stock purchase agreement with four private investors led by CapGen Capital Group IV LP ("CapGen") providing for $30 million in new capital through the sale of newly issued shares of JAXB common stock subject to completion of the mergers. The transactions have been approved by the Boards of Directors of each company and are subject to regulatory approval, shareholders' approvals, and other customary conditions. JAXB and Atlantic expect to close the transaction in late-third quarter or early-fourth quarter of 2010. SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT UNDER THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995 Certain statements in this press release may contain "forward-looking" statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as "may," "will," "expect," "estimate," "anticipate," "believe," "target," "plan," "project," or "continue" or the negatives thereof or other variations thereon or similar terminology, and are made on the basis of management's plans and current analyses of Atlantic BancGroup, Inc., its business and the industry as a whole. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, economic conditions, competition, interest rate sensitivity and exposure to regulatory and legislative changes. The above factors, in some cases, have affected, and in the future could affect Atlantic BancGroup, Inc.'s financial performance and could cause actual results for fiscal 2010 and beyond to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. Atlantic BancGroup, Inc. does not undertake to publicly update or revise its forward-looking statements even if experience or future changes make it clear that any project results expressed or implied therein will not be realized. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT THIS TRANSACTION JAXB will file a Registration Statement on Form S-4, containing a Proxy Statement of Atlantic's, and both companies will file other relevant documents concerning the merger with the SEC. Atlantic will mail the Proxy Statement/Prospectus to its shareholders.

Xbox One Will Come to Japan in Early 2014
Tiffany Kaiser

Sender E-mail
Microsoft said Japan is a "Tier 2 country"
Sorry, Japan -- it looks like you're going to have to wait until next year to get a Xbox One.
Microsoft announced that Japan will receive the Xbox One in early 2014 instead of late 2013. It will release in North America in November and Europe in either November or December of this year.
Microsoft Japan President Yasuyuki Higuchi said this is because Japan is considered a "Tier 2 country." This is based on demand for the Xbox in the country as opposed to others.
According to reports, other countries in Asia won't get their hands on a Xbox One
until late 2014
The Xbox One has been a controversial machine for Microsoft. When the console was announced in late May, the company revealed that it would allow third-party publishers to
opt out of used game sales
. Both Microsoft and the publishers don't receive license fees on used game sales, but Microsoft was sneaky about the new policy by allowing third parties to make the decision on whether to ban the new games -- which puts them to blame instead of Microsoft for upset gamers.
Gamers were also upset to learn that of the new "always-on" digital rights management (DRM) system, which posed a problem for many people who are either in rural areas with slow Internet connections, travelling or experience Internet issues with providers.
But the consumer backlash was so brutal that Microsoft
retracted these features
. This meant that gamers no longer needed to have an Internet connection to play an offline Xbox One game (they will only need to go through a one-time setup over the Internet when the console first boots up), and gamers can trade-in, lend, resell, gift, and rent disc based games just like they do now.
Earlier this week, Microsoft lost
Don Mattrick
-- the president of Microsoft's Interactive Entertainment Business -- who left to become the CEO of Zynga. He aims to help the struggling social game company survive.
However, some wonder if Mattrick got the boot for his controversial statements regarding the Xbox One. When gamers lashed out about the new always-on issue, Mattrick advised that they
don't buy an Xbox One
The Xbox One sports an APU with eight x86-64 cores; 8GB of DDR3 RAM; a GPU based on an AMD GCN architecture with 12 compute units (768 cores total for 1.23 TFLOPS; a 500 GB non-replaceable hard drive; three USB 3.0 ports; HDMI, and a Blu-ray optical drive.

It suddenly occurred to me that I had yet to post a reading report for last month.
I finished 12 books in August, out of which one was a reread. It was a mixed bag this time: autobiography, travel, popular science, romance, urban fantasy, mystery and suspense. Some of my favourite genres, in fact.
The TBR challenge is inching along, with 3 books in August, and I got going again with the Brother Cadfael mysteries, reading three of them back to back. I finally got hold of the final book I needed to complete the series and now there is nothing holding me back from finally finishing it.
The Books:
Alison Arngrim: Confessions of a Prairie Bitch. Autobiography.
Andrew Beahrs: Twain's Feast: Searching for America's lost foods in the footsteps of Samuel Clemens. Travel and food.
Georgette Heyer: The Convenient Marriage. Historical romance. Reread.
Sam Kean: The Disappearing Spoon: and other true tales of madness, love, and the history of the world, from the periodic table of the elements. Popular science/history.
Christian Lander: Stuff White People Like. Humour.
Ellis Peters: The Pilgrim of Hate, An Excellent Mystery and The Raven in the Foregate. Historical mysteries.
Nora Roberts: Brazen Virtue. Romantic suspense.
J.R. Ward: Lover Mine and Lover Unleashed. Urban fantasy/Paranormal romance.

It seems we are not the only car-obsessed New Yorkers attempting to catalog big apple auto culture. A new exhibit, Cars, Culture and the City, opened yesterday (runs through August 1st) at the Museum of the City of New York and is said to be the first to document New York 's role in the promotion, marketing, and proliferation of the automobile as well as its transformative effect on the city and, ultimately, the country. Not only did several early American automakers manufacture cars in NYC but the city also played home to the country's first car show more than 100 years ago at Madison Square Garden. Add in The French Connection and a couple of world expositions and you're looking at a seriously important player in automotive history. The Mustang was even unveiled here – it doesn't get any more American than that folks. While there are no actual cars inside (do you know how much real estate cost here?), the exhibit is packed with rarely-seen drawings, models, historic photographs, films, advertisements, and architectural schemes to reveal the shockingly important role NYC played in jump-starting the auto industry. So jump on the 6 train and check it out.

text: Im trying to decide between getting a Z71 Tahoe or a truck... I hunt a lot, mostly deer and some waterfowl, and I bass fish a lot. I want a Tahoe because I feel like I would have more room for my gear and clothes and I would also feel safer leaving my stuff inside of the car rather than in the bed of a pick up. I feel like a tahoe would be better for traveling and going to school, but I also feel like it might be too much of a pain having to worrying about putting a rack on the back every time i go deer hunting just in case I kill something... So what are you opinions on tahoes vs. trucks and if you have had experience with both please share which one you liked best!

No cold water flow
We have no cold water flow in our home. Hot water flow is great. Turn on cold water from faucet and it barely drips in the kitchen. Have two baths and and cold water has a steady low stream. Neither of the toilets will fill. Have a whole house filter and have changed it and replaced the whole assembly. Not sure what else to do. The home is a mobile home and the pipes are grey plastic.
look for a valve that is partially closed; hard to imagine how else you could have strong hot water flow and no cold at all fixtures.
Gary plastic pipe tells me it's Quest, thousands of law sutes againt them because of the pipes bursting.
Is the pump running none stop, or if you on city water is the meter running and nothings on?
Anyone been working on the plumbing and left a valve off?
First thought was a leak but didn't find one. Had someone check the meter and it was ok. All valves are open. When I replaced the whole house filter let the line coming in run into a bucket and seemed to be flowing strong. Really appreciate everyone's help! Hoping to be able to fix it without having to hire a plumber.
the only thing you touched was the filter is it in backwards has to be right there
If the water flowed out good at the filter then troubleshooting should be from the filter into the trailer. Start at the filter go from there. City or well water?
We have city water and it's very hard water. Could a pipe be blocked? Like I said hot water comes out fine but when the heater fills back up it takes a long time. The faucet outside has a little flow better than anywhere else but still is low compared to what it was.
Sounds like a partial blockage in the main somewhere after the filter.
When you change the filter there could be a bunch of stuff in the outlet side of the pipe.
You need to check the pressure at the main before the filter and the closest place after the filter.

Pamela Anderson "serious" healthy eater
Pamela Anderson sticks to a strict vegan diet in order to maintain her enviable curves.
The former Baywatch star is famed for the enviable curves that made her a sex symbol around the world.
Mother-of-two Pamela is said to shun unhealthy snacks in favour of a stringent diet.
"Pamela takes her health really seriously and sticks to a vegan diet of grains, beans, tofu and fruit. She never eats junk food," a source told British magazine Closer.
The blonde bombshell also reportedly spends five mornings a week in the gym. Pamela, 46, does a range of exercises to ensure she works all of her muscle groups.
"Pamela works out with her trainer, doing long cardio workouts followed by an hour of strength -training exercises focusing on her abs, thighs and arms," the insider continued.
"Her body is a temple and she loves showing it off."
Pamela has previously attributed her figure to a mixture of good genes, a meat-free diet and a hectic work and family schedule.
"Good Viking genes, being vegetarian and having rowdy dogs and kids definitely keep me in shape," she claimed when asked how she stays in shape. "Not eating meat gives me the energy I need to keep up with work, family and travel – I'm very active."

King White: Incentives are key to competing for new business
There's been a shift in mentality in the C-suite over recent years: Everyone wants incentives. It's part of a changing economy, said King White, founder and president of Dallas-based Site Selection Group LLC, which helps companies with relocation and economic incentives. White founded Site Selection Group in 2006, after working in a similar capacity for a decade at Trammell Crow Co. before it was acquired by CBRE. Site Selection Group operates throughout the world helping companies. Since its founding, Site Selection has grown roughly 20 percent annually. The company has 17 employees. When White, 40, began working at Trammell Crow, economic incentives weren't always part of the real estate decision and the C-suite was rarely involved in that decision. Now, CEOs want to know what city, county, state and federal incentives are available for a relocation or expansion. "Companies are more strategic now than they have ever been," White said.
WHY ARE INCENTIVES AN iMPORTANT PART OF REAL ESTATE DECISIONS? It's part of the changing economy. The world is becoming flat and people are making smarter location decisions, as a result. The decisions are filtering into the C-suite and boardroom more frequently than they had been in the past. That has become a standard part of the whole process.
WHEN DID THIS SHIFT HAPPEN? Over the last 10 years, and even more so over the past five years. Today, there's a strong opinion at the C-level part of the organization that they want to make sure they are getting all the economic incentives — city, county, state and federal — that are offered. Everyone wants to make sure they are getting the same shot as everyone else. Along with economic incentives, it makes sure companies are making better labor decisions.
YOU WERE RECENTLY CITED IN A NEW YORK TIMES ARTICLE that WAS CRITICAL OF THE Texas' ECONOMIC INCENTIVE PROGRAMS — WHAT WERE YOUR THOUGHTS ON THE ARTICLE? If you look at the size of the Texas economy, it makes sense they are giving out more economic incentives than other parts of the nation. Everyone is playing the game. Texas is just playing far more organized and strategic. People are just jealous that we have a system that works. We have a great combination of state and local incentives to offer companies and it's a good business model overall. These packages are not loosely done, it's a contract and a win-win for the community and the company if it's a successful project.
SO WHY THE CRITICISM? I can't really put my finger on it. We see benefits of the deal, if it's structured correctly. That's why you have experts, such as consultants and economic developers that understand the risk and reward of the incentives. They are protected contracts, but you don't hear that part of the story.
WILL NORTH TEXAS SEE ANY RELOCATIONS THIS YEAR? We evaluate the labor market frequently for projects and it's definitely tightening up. The information technology talent is difficult to find and there's pressure on the wage markets. The wage markets have been holding flat the past three or four years, but we think there will be some wage inflation happening in the next 12 to 24 months. We're seeing wages tick up a good 5 percent a year rather than the usual 2 percent or 3 percent. Over the next two years, expect a 10 percent increase in wages in the Dallas area. There could be local labor shortages if we grow at a pace that we can't keep up with. That can be fixed by paying the right wages, but someone will be the loser in that equation. There's a lot of competition for talent. We work about 120 national projects a year and Dallas makes the short list on about 25 percent of those projects.
WHAT TRENDS ARE YOU SEEING? We are getting cash incentives for companies that move to Dallas for a 40-person office, which we've never gotten in the past. Communities are lowering their threshold and competing for business. They don't give out massive incentives, but they are giving out money for smaller projects. For a small user, that's important money. It also creates some dynamics in regional economic development.
WHAT DYNAMICs? They are all playing the game — Plano, Frisco, Allen, McKinney. And now Richardson has gotten more aggressive with State Farm. I think it's an opportunity for them to compete on a national landscape. Outside of Texas, there's minimal support, or lack of support, on the local or state level. That's a big positive, making people think they are wanted.
ARE THESE COMMUNITIES TRACKING THEIR AGREEMENTS? About half of the communities on a city level hand out incentives and have no way of making sure the company is complying with the package. We have a cloud-based management system that builds budgeting and reporting that can be used by cities and companies alike. We are working to roll out that technology.
