Did you miss the Madness? Have no fear, the Sweet 16 is finally here.
After the opening rounds of the NCAA tournament got off to a slow start last week, it could be a wild Thursday night. The action gets started with the only region in which chalk prevailed and the top four seeds advanced. We'll also get to see the only region in which the No. 1 seed has already been eliminated. Before we go any further, though, here's a look at the complete schedule (all times EDT):
East Region
No. 3 Marquette vs. No. 2 Miami, 7:15 (CBS)
No. 4 Syracuse vs. No. 1 Indiana, 9:45 (CBS)
West Region
No. 6 Arizona vs. No. 2 Ohio State, 7:47 (TBS)
No. 13 La Salle vs. No. 9 Wichita State, 10:17 (TBS)
Must See Games
No. 6 Arizona vs. No. 2 Ohio State
Given all the upsets in the West region, many have already penciled the Buckeyes into the Final Four. But it's easy to forget Arizona has yet to lose against a team outside the Pac-12 this season and won with ease last weekend. The individual matchups should be fascinating to watch as Arizona's Mark Lyons will go against Ohio State defensive menace Aaron Craft and Wildcats forward Solomon Hill faces off with Buckeyes leading scorer DeShaun Thomas. Arizona could have a rebounding advantage with its deep front court, but Ohio State sophomore LaQuinton Ross has emerged as a third option behind Craft and Thomas.
No. 4 Syracuse vs. No. 1 Indiana
Two of college basketball's heavyweights facing one another could turn the nightcap at Verizon Center into the best game of the NCAA tournament to date. Indiana Coach Tom Crean admits his squad hasn't dealt with a team that features big guards like Syracuse's Michael Carter-Williams and C.J. Fair and exclusively plays a 2-3 zone. But the Orange haven't faced a team armed with a plethora of outside shooters and an NBA draft pick inside (Cody Zeller). Pace – Syracuse ranks 10th out of the 16 teams remaining in offensive efficiency and would prefer to keep the high-scoring Hoosiers out of transition – could be the deciding factor in this matchup of two elite programs.
Upset Alert
No. 13 La Salle vs. No. 9 Wichita State
It might not be fair to call this an upset, considering both teams have authored intriguing Cinderella stories. But at least one of these schools will end Thursday night one game away from the Final Four. La Salle is trying to pull off the same feat VCU did two years ago and advance to the regional final after being forced to win a play-in game just to make the field of 64. The Explorers have a dynamic backcourt led by Ramon Galloway and Virginia Tech transfer Tyrone Garland, but the potential return of big man Steve Zack from a foot sprain could be a wild card after Wichita State held its own inside against Gonzaga. La Salle also has Brother Ed on its side.
Matchup to watch: Marquette's Davante Gardner vs. Miami's Julian Gamble
The focus will be on Miami point guard Shane Larkin and Marquette's Vander Blue, but the opening game at Verizon Center could be won on the offensive glass. In that regard, Coach Buzz Williams received some encouraging news when the Hurricanes announced that center Reggie Johnson didn't make the trip to Washington after undergoing minor knee surgery this week. Miami Coach Jim Larranaga considers Johnson to be the Hurricanes' best rebounder, although Gamble wasn't just a prolific photo bomber this year. He started 27 games. Can the burly Gardner, who averages 11.3 points and 4.8 rebounds per game, take advantage?
Theme of the night: Reunited, and (sometimes) it feels so good
Larranaga returns to Verizon Center, the sight of his greatest triumph at George Mason; Arizona's Sean Miller faces off against his close friend and former colleague at Miami (Ohio), Buckeyes Coach Thad Matta; Indiana star Victor Oladipo (DeMatha) comes home for a game in Washington, his first in the area since the 2010 City title game; Syracuse and Indiana play in an NCAA tournament game for the first time since Keith Smart's dramatic shot gave the Hoosiers a national title over the Orange in 1987.

Technical Abstract: Rice, wheat and Brachypodium are plant genetic models with variable genome complexity and basic chromosome numbers, representing two subfamilies of the Poaceae. Centromeres are prominent chromosome landmarks, but their fate during this convoluted chromosome evolution has been more difficult to determine. In grasses, the discovery of active genes in the functional domains of several rice centromeres immediately suggested that conserved centromeric gene sequences (COS-C) may be used to study comparative homologies of centromeric regions across the grass species. In wheat, breaks within functional centromeres are documented and telocentric chromosomes provide an opportunity for the mapping of the centromeres. Exploiting wheat aneuploid stocks and COS-C, we have determined the centromeric region homologies of wheat-rice and wheat-Brachypodium-rice and these studies, along with some recent information on the structure of Brachypodium centromeres, are reviewed here.

Jan. 25, 2012
Although this past weekend the 49ers decided to ruin my plans for February 5th, our team won one out of two games, and clearly my psychic abilities are lacking, I want to let you in on something that has been a bit of a spark for our team since the beginning of the season.
The pre-season conference poll was released prior to the start of our season predicting that we would finish 8th in the Horizon League. That would be eight out of 10, meaning third-to-last, in case you didn't realize the severity of the situation. We knew that this season we had something to prove not only to our opponents but also to our fans and most importantly ourselves. A great man once said, "I hope to be underestimated. I feel that is a competitive advantage." This man just happens to be Jim Harbaugh, and I think the man had a point.
Maybe being picked 8th was a blessing in disguise. Maybe we needed this ranking in order to realize that we would have to work that much harder in order to bring this program to where we want it to be. Just because we don't have the #1 next to our name, doesn't mean that we don't have it in our hearts. Our team is using this to our advantage. If you don't want to take us seriously, Monica Albano will make you pay with a three in your eye. If you don't think we can beat every team in the Horizon League, Lisa Samplawski will take the ball out of your hands to the basket.
Our team will prove that we are better than the '8' next to our name. Each and every one of my teammates believes that no matter who we play, we will win. Being underestimated in the preseason poll conveyed to this team that it's up to us to bring the heat.
This week will be preparing for our cross-town shootout against UIC at home on Saturday at 2 p.m. UIC is always a great contender in the Horizon League and we will make sure that the win stays on the Northside of Chicago. When I report back to you next week we will have beaten UIC and I will actually be caught up on all of my reading for class, although the latter might be a bit of a stretch.

Brooklyn's John Jagos goes by the name Brothertiger when he gets behind various digital doohickies to create his très '80s, near-dancey, sweeping-synth balladry. It's well-caught in this brand new video for "In Mind," from his latest album, Future Splendors (Mush), which kind of looks like slowed-moed scenes from some '80s doomed romance flick, sans the high hair, loud, primary color clothes, and a Delorean. Jagos has been active for near four years now, having remixed and been remixed by FLASH/LIGHTS, Teen Daze, Blackbird Blackbird, A Million Years, TeeelIf and more. Check the video and some tour dates below.

Colts put on pads; Bethea welcomes baby girl
Football is a contact sport. Teams have to hit each other at some point to truly practice the game. Tuesday in Anderson, the Colts put on full pads for the first time in this year's training camp.
"I look forward to pads every day," said Colts cornerback Darius Butler with a smile. "But we've got them on today. We've got to take care of each other, but at the same time compete and get better."
The Colts enjoyed an overcast, very pleasant afternoon for the two-and-a-half hour practice. The shoulder pads popped for the first time.
"Our guys are going to do a great job," said Colts head coach Chuck Pagano. "Our coaches are going to do a great job. We're going to make it competitive. But we're going to be smart, so we don't lose anybody."
But the Colts did lose nose tackle Brandon McKinney before the season even starts. The Colts placed McKinney on injured reserve Tuesday, meaning he is out for the season.
The move comes one day after McKinnney experienced swelling in his surgically-repaired left knee. McKinney spent all of last season on injured reserve as well after injuring that same knee in the preseason. So after signing with the Colts in 2012, McKinney has never played a down for the team in the regular season. McKinney watched practice from the sideline Tuesday.
Colts on the run
The Colts want to improve their running game. The Colts ranked 22nd in the NFL in rushing last season, 104 yards per game. The team ran the ball only 41 percent of their plays. Even with a franchise quarterback like Andrew Luck, the Colts want a more balanced offense.
"Much more than last year, obviously," said Pagano. "I know we got put in some situations where we got behind and we had to drop back 45, 50 times in some games just to come back and win those football games. But certainly we want balance. Again, they understand first day in pads today the mindset we're trying to develop is run the ball and stop the run."
The Colts have added a fullback to their offense under new offensive coordinator Pep Hamilton.
"Fullbacks obviously help open up the run game and that will be good for alleviating some pressure on our pass game," said Colts running back Donald Brown. "That's what we need to do. We need to run the ball better and take some pressure off Andrew (Luck) and the wide receivers."
Vick Ballard started at running back the final 12 games of his rookie season last year. He led the Colts in rushing with 814 yards, averaging just under four yards a carry.
"I think I can pretty much take any workload they put on me," said Ballard. "But if I get 15-20 carries a game, I feel like that is plenty."
Riley patients visit camp
Ten patients from IU Health Riley Hospital for Children and their families visited training camp Tuesday as guests of the Colts.
The children watched the afternoon practice and joined the team huddle at the end of the workout. Luck and other players signed autographs and posed for pictures with the children.
Pagano can relate to these young patients in their battles against serious illness and disease. he missed most of last season while undergoing treatment for leukemia, but has enjoyed a complete remission.
"It's an opportunity for our family, for our organization, for our team to give back and to serve,' said Pagano. "We talk about serving. We talk about self and we talk about team. It's an honor to have those kids from Riley coming out here. Certainly we all understand first-hand what they're going through, the battles that they're fighting, the strain that it is on their families, those types of things. They're an inspiration to us, just to see them fight and how strong and come out here with smiles on their faces and the way they attack the bully that they're battling."
Suggested Links
Papa Bethea absent from training camp
One player was missing from Colts training camp Tuesday. Safety Antoine Bethea left Anderson University to be present for the birth of his daughter. Coach Chuck Pagano said he received text messages from Bethea indicating that labor was induced Monday night and the baby was born early Tuesday morning.
Bethea sent out this message on his Twitter feed: "I appreciate the love from my Colts family!!! Thank you so much!!"

Under the "leadership" of Vladmir Putin, the once growing state of democracy in Russia has increasingly been stifled. The press requires licenses to operate and all opposition television stations are no longer allowed to broadcast. Governors are no longer elected but appointed by President Putin. Now, this man who fears democracy announced he is establishing a new think tank for democracy in Brussels. He says since the European Union once helped Russia to develop democracy, "I think the time has come for Russia, given the growth in our financial capabilities, to make its contribution in the sphere as well." When asked if Russia would make their venture a joint one with European advocates of democracy, his spokesperson said it would be 100% Russian. The Institute would monitor the rights of ethnic minorities, immigrants, and the media in Europe. One goal would be to protect rights of ethnic Russians in other nations.
One can only welcome the establishment of an institution to protect democratic rights. It might be helpful if Putin would create a branch office in Moscow to protect the rights of people in Russia. This is merely another clever device by a very clever man to divert attention from his own failures in supporting Russian democracy.

Actually, the round is made to not over penetrate. It is true that the military round is armor piercing, but the round is also designed to stay inside of a target. Additionally, it fragments and breaks up on hard targets. It is probably more likely to pass thru LESS interior walls than a 9mm round.
FN has video showing the round being fired into a cinder block, point blank. It goes in 1 side and thru the middle. It does no come out the other side.
I have owned a Five seven before, but do still have two PS90s
The only concern is that it is such a small, light round. However, many people use five sevens for self defense. I have no problems relying on my two ps90s, if I ever needed them.

Party Leader Obama instructs students to reject 'anti-government' opinions
Source: 21stcenturywire.comSomething is very wrong with this picture…
The most disturbing thing about this public address to students in Ohio is not just the usual abstract content that's become a signature of the Party Leader's speech, but the almost uncanny similarity to Adolph Hitler's speeches pre-Nuremberg, during the transition into the Nazi's Third Reich.
The following is no exaggeration, and it is based on the very words of the President of the United States.
Whoever is writing Obama's speeches is well aware of the power of propaganda, where the flamboyant leader lays out his blank canvas of 'hope' and 'change', devoid of any real specifics, leaving the audience with no other choice but to project their own ideals on the Party Leader's empty backdrop. It could be a speech by Chairman Mao, Hitler or Stalin, or simply a popular CEO's address to the shareholders right before the company is about to be sold off and broken up. The leading effect is the same. A Leader who presents his public with high democratic-sounding concepts like, "our brave, creative, unique experiment in self-rule", while he concentrates more and more power into his executive branch of government.
Hitler sold his people abstract dreams and threats to the security of the "Fatherland". Obama sells the same abstracts to his people about their new "Homeland".
This is what makes Barack Obama unlike any President in US history, he says he's in the process of changing America, but too few Americans are quick to grasp where exactly his change is heading. "Trust only our government, and reject the voice of the skeptics", the Party Leader tells his people, as he turns neighbor against neighbor in order to try and preserve the power of the state.

Postgame Quotes
Postgame Quotes • November 23, 2013
North Carolina 80, Old Dominion 20
North Carolina Head Coach Larry Fedora
Opening Statement
"I'm proud of this football team for what we've accomplished, especially the way these guys have hung together and kept working hard...[and kept] believing in each other. Happy to get a win today at home in front of our fans and our students, and we're looking forward to the next one."
On the team's turn around from a 1-5 record
"You can give the credit to our staff, our coaches. First of all, they're the guys that have kept this team together, kept those kids believing in each other, kept them believing in the plan and kept them believing in the philosophy. The kids did all those things, and they continued to work hard. I'm going to tell you, they'll be out there tomorrow working the exact same way they did whether it was after the Miami loss or the earlier games. They have been very consistent throughout the year and because of that, we've gotten better each and every week. If you look at our team, we've gotten a little bit better each week. We're playing our best football at this time of the year, so it's exciting. As the head coach you watch how the team has progressed and how these young guys have progressed and how this team has grown closer together. They're having fun playing together. That's really what it's all about."
On if he's been waiting for the running game to break a big run
"Yeah, you bet. I've been waiting for it every play. It doesn't matter who the running back is, but yeah I was really looking forward to him [T.J. Logan] getting out and getting open. If you think about it, the game last week might be the worst game he's played in his life. He really responded very well."
On Marquise Williams' growth this season
"You look at what he's accomplished since he's taken over and what this team has accomplished since then. Any time you're in an offense like that it starts at that spot. The growth has come in his leadership and the growth has come in his confidence and what he's doing within the offense. He's realizing that all he has to do is stay within the parameters of the offense and good things are going to happen. That's what he's doing."
UNC Player Quotes
Marquise Williams, So., QB
On what it feels like when everything is working offensively
"It feels great. You feel like we're just clicking with everything. We were starting off slow at the beginning of the season. We're just starting to click with everything. The offensive line is blocking, the run game is improving and the passing game is improving. We're starting to click. We're starting to come into ourselves now."
On the team's younger players making plays
"The future is bright for us. We have an incredible future coming. The guys, they're not freshman to me. I just think of them as playmakers. Ryan Switzer, T.J. Logan, Khris Francis...the guys can play football. I tell them every day that they've just got to think back to high school. That's what I told coaches today, that I was going to think back to my senior night in high school at Mallard Creek. Seven touchdowns is what I wanted to get, and I was trying to aim for it. You've just got to think about it as basic football and just play the game."
On the offense's performance
"It was great. We tried to beat the basketball score. We saw they scored 82. We wanted Coach to let us kick the field goal so we could get 83, but that didn't happen. It felt good. We were clicking on special teams and everything. I wish we could have gotten 83 so we could have bragged with the basketball boys, but it was great."
Kareem Martin, Sr., DE
On the game overall
"Overall, I think the defense played pretty well. Forced a lot of three and outs. Overall, the performance was how we expected to play today."
On the Carolina offense
"They had talked about it all week. They said that they would have the opportunity to put up a lot of points. I was expecting about 40 or 50 points, but 80 points is amazing. And just the way that we got it. You have [Ryan] Switzer's punt return, T.J. Logan's kickoff return, and the long run he had-it was just exciting to watch, so I know it was exciting for the fans."
On the second half
"Coming out of half, coaches told us in the second half that we needed to come out with the same intensity as the first half, which we knew would be hard. But I think that we came out with the same intensity, if not more, so they wouldn't be able to come back in the game."
On bowl eligibility
"Finally. It took long enough. It feels great to know that next week is not our last game. Next week, we're just trying to get to a better bowl. Tomorrow, we'll come in here and watch the film, watch the Duke film, and get prepared from there."
Quinshad Davis, So., WR
On his performance overall
"We just had our mojo today. You know, we might have had our secret juice. But everybody was out there making plays. The young guys and older guys, so we just had that chemistry today. We wanted to play a complete game, and we did today."
On Marquise Williams's performance
"He just had consistency. Over the last couple of weeks, he's been playing phenomenal. He's just kept it up. He's been doing a great job with his reads and knowing where to go with the ball and know what to do. He's just been doing a great job, and hopefully he'll keep it up."
On the trick play in the 1st quarter
"It was just a slow-developing play. We had the safeties come down on the run fade, and we did a little play-action run fade, and I sold it really well. It was a touchdown by myself."
T.J. Logan, Fr., TB
On the game overall
"The best part of the day was just getting in the end zone for the first time in a while. That was a good part for me, just to get my legs running under me and just get out there."
On the younger team
"It was definitely fun. When I was a freshman in high school and I got out there, it was always exciting."
On building on today
"We try to move on. We can't dwell on what we just did. We've got a great team and Duke we have to play, so we have to come out and be ready."
On the atmosphere from ECU compared to today
"The atmosphere was just that we got too relaxed. That's the one thing we realized. Coming in now, we were way more focused in practice and didn't try to overlook a team. We just tried to come out and play hard."
Ryan Switzer, Fr., WR
On the Duke rivalry
"Our focus was on this week. I'm sure I'm going to hear a lot about it, just like the State week, as the week goes on. But other than that, it's just another game that we're able to play against a good opponent."
On young players scoring more
"It says the future's bright. I wish we could have gotten it rolling earlier in the season, but better late than never. T.J. Logan had a great game, Khris Francis played great. It just says a lot about where this team is headed. We're all excited to be a part of it."
On the game overall
"I've never been a part of anything quite like that. But it was fun. Everybody was able to get some playing time. I'm just thankful that we came out and played. Old Dominion was a tough opponent; they played some ACC teams really well earlier in the year. If we came out like we did against ECU, we're going to get beat. So I'm glad the way our guys responded."
On the punt return
"They weren't giving me a lot of opportunities early in the game, and I wouldn't have given myself those opportunities either. All it takes is one, and guys were blocking great, and I saw a lane and fortunately was able to hit it. And the rest is history."
Old Dominion Head Coach Bobby Wilder
Opening statement
"This one certainly didn't go the way we had planned or the way we had hoped. I felt like our guys had a great week of preparation. I felt like in the first quarter, we were in a good position in this game, we'd recovered an onside kick, we'd done some good things on special teams, we were trailing 14-13 and at that point it felt like everything came unraveled. Offensively, we got some penalties; we put ourselves in a position with some sacks. I felt like in the first half there were 28, 35 points that were there for us offensively with the pace and the way we were going. Defensively, other than a stop early on in the game, we just couldn't hold up. I want to say this about our defense: I'm extremely proud of those kids in the locker room. We've got three defensive starters that were out for the year, we had another 11 that were injured today. At one point we had Kanyia Anderson - who's a true freshman defensive end - playing Mike linebacker for us against North Carolina and that's not a recipe for success. Absolutely love that kid because within a week he tried his best to learn the linebacker position, he tried his best to go out there and compete and it just couldn't happen consistently throughout the game. This one will be hard - it was hard in that locker room, it was hard with those kids, but what I'm most proud of overall is the fact that, in this transition season, we found a way to get to 8-4, we found a way to have some success during the season, and this is something we'll take from this season. We'll build on it and we'll be a much better football team starting tomorrow."
On the 10 minute fourth quarter
"During on of the TV timeouts, I went over to Jeff Flanagan, the referee, and asked him if he would talk to Coach [Larry] "Fedora and if he would be in agreement in shortening that last quarter. I felt like that was in the best interest of my team to try to shorten that last quarter because there certainly wasn't anything good that was going to come from the score getting any more lopsided than it already was. I'll give a lot of credit to Coach Fedora - I think he realized how painful that was for me to ask for that. That's probably the most difficult thin I've done in 26 years of coaching and I'm grateful to him; he's obviously a class act. That was a class move at the end of the ball game, what he did with his offense. "
On if this takes away from the rest of the season
"Right now, it feels like probably the worst punch in the face I've had or anybody in our program has had. But as I always tell my players: adversity defines your character, it defines who you are. We have a motto within our program that every setback is a comeback waiting to happen and we're going to turn this into a comeback. We're going to take this loss today and this will fuel us over the offseason because as I told our players today, one of the great lessons we learned is how much faster we need to play - and that's both sides of the ball because there were some throws and catches that were there, that were broken up by outstanding players. So it showed us what we need to do to get to this caliber of play, and we're certainly capable of it based on what we did against East Carolina, based on what we did against Pittsburgh. We're certainly capable but I really feel like today we just did not have enough gas left in the tank, particularly on defense. But I'm very proud of my kids."

Any time I try to load Episode 3 on my Xbox 360, the 'loading' double helix appears for about two seconds, and then the screen goes black. I can open the Xbox dashboard, but the game will not start. I've already exchanged the disc, but the problem persists. Is there anything I can do?
2 Comments - Linear Discussion: Classic Style
Deleted the save, started over, and had no more problems. Such a thing leads me to believe that I must have corrupted the save file somehow.
Can anyone give any suggestions? I got through Sorkins lab but the game stops after that and won't go any further.

Related terms for "early warning water contamination ": early warning water contamination detection applications , early warning water contamination detection system applications
Water abstraction points may be affected by spills from farms or factories, and deliberate contamination. Early warning monitoring systems are required to alert operators to these contaminants and to changes in key water quality parameters. A timely response is necessary to prevent contamination and disruption of the public water supply.
Chelsea Technologies Group has developed FastGuard to observe the natural trends in water quality parameters and rapidly detect and report anomalies.
FastGuard is ideally suited for early detection of contamination events. It gives prompt reporting and asessment of the threat and has high sensitivity with minimal false alarm rate.
By Chelsea Technologies Group based in West Molesey, UNITED KINGDOM.
Water pollution from airport run-off is increasingly coming under public and government scrutiny. As environmental regulations tighten, the ability to monitor for aviation fuel contamination from runway run-off has become essential.
Monitoring sites at airports can be extremely challenging often with no power or telephone lines available and with limited access for maintenance. Chelsea's robust UviLux Hydrocarbon Sensor with its low power consumption and high accuracy is ideally suited for this application. Installed at various locations around the airport, deployed with it's own integrated anti-biofouling system, utilising the GSM network, the monitoring sites send data to a secure ftp site, where any internet enabled device can access the data. In this way the systems act as any early warning system allowing any hydrocarbon discharge to be detected in real-time.
Optional environmental monitoring features include remote control to allow the user to turn equipment on and off, change the sample rate and detection range. There is also a facility to allow SMS text and email alarm notifications triggered by user-defined set-points together with customised web pages, data displays and automated data downloads via an ftp server.
Airport runoff can contain high concentrations of various pollutants, in particular polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), the environmental levels of which have to be monitored. An understanding of the magnitude of contamination due to airport runoff water is important for the effective management of airport infrastructure. Chelsea's robust UviLux Hydrocarbon Sensor with its low power consumption and high accuracy is ideally suited to the airport environment.

What would cause a female to drop her eggs?
What are the various reasons why a female might drop her clutch? I'm sure there are general things like poor water quality, but are there any specific reasons, like lack of X or Y in the diet, or presence of Q or X chemical in the water?
if its a first time berry she's gonna drop eggs because the female is new to this. It's like rollerblading or snowboarding for the first time you're gonna fall.
drops can occur via stress, poor water quality an llet's hope this doesn't happen... molting
from my experience, my female blue velvet died because she was berried and molted so then the molt got stuck to her. *The berries are stuck to the female's shell with this adhesive the female produces to keep the eggs on. *
i will vouch for poor water condition is probably the biggest reason to eggs being dropped.
i neglected my tank for months due to being not at home at all. started with 20 shrimp that never thrived... down to 6 shrimps.
now its rebouncing to 30 ish shrimp as im slowly trying to re-stablize the tank. Still not optimal as i still see eggs being dropped and they are definetly not new to holding eggs
arbai, do you have test kits for your water?
My females only drop their eggs if it's the first time, and sometimes if there are too much temperature fluctuations. I've tried putting the eggs near an air stone, didn't work for me. :(
Is it true that every first time mother drops all her eggs?
Ya I would be beyond happy if half survived. Seeming like my oebt's are holding their eggs better and kind of higher up than my supreme reds. I noticed a couple eggs kinda hanging out of one of my supremes.
all i know is that the tank was negletcted for months. now that i am finally home, i can actually do water changes. not doing major water changes because i dont wan't to drastically change the water parameters. did a water change maybe 2-3 weeks ago and already have a spawn of 10 + babies.
i need to do another water change again but i already have a brand new home that been cycling for a month or so that i want to drop them in there.
problem is im afraid the drastic water change will stress them too much from poor condition to great condition.
When you move them into their new home do a long drip acclimation (I normally do 4 hours but I'm anal). They should be fine.

Law enforcement says goodbye to Deputy Jeremiah MacKay
SAN BERNARDINO, Calif. - A second law enforcement officer in just nine days is laid to rest. Thursday, the law enforcement community remembered and honored San Bernardino County Sheriff's Deputy Jeremiah MacKay.
The 35-year-old was the second officer killed by ex-cop Christopher Dorner. Mackay was killed in a shootout in the mountains near Big Bear, that ultimately led to the end of Dorner's rampage.
Officers from all over the country, including the Coahcella Valley, came together in a display of gratitude.
San Bernardino County Sheriff John McMahon said, "Jeremiah MacKay stood for good against evil."
MacKay died trying to stop a man determined to harm others, something his father says Jeremiah spent his life doing.
"He wanted to intervene when somebody was hurting somebody else and that is what Jeremiah did," said Alan MacKay.
A 15-year veteran with the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department, he earned several honors and became a detective.
The 35-year-old played the bagpipes, so it's fitting the sound of over 100 people playing the traditional Scottish instrument ushered in his casket.
The loving husband and father took great joy in helping his 6-year-old stepdaughter, Kaitlyn, with karate. His 4-month-old son Cayden was the light of his life. The boy will never know his father, but MacKay's fellow deputies will make sure he grows up with the memory of him.
Sheriff McMahon said, "Jeremiah's bravery, heroism and sacrifice will not be forgotten. Every law enforcement officer in California owes a debt of gratitude to Jeremiah."
That's something the law enforcement community understands, nearly 10,000 people attended the service to say thank you.
"It's been overwhelming for me and my family, but it's the love and the kind thoughts and prayers that we covet. That is what is getting us through this," said MacKay's father.
This is the largest funeral in the history of the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department and the procession to the San Manuel Amphitheater, where the service was held, is equally as impressive. We're told at one point, the line of police cars and fire trucks was 15 miles long. Hundreds of people lined the streets, waving American flags along the way to pay their respects.
Wendi Nees, a police dispatcher, said, "I like the kids to know that it's a hero, a hero that lost his life for, essentially, us."
Paul Lence, High Desert resident, said, "I think every one of these guys knows when they go to work it might be their last day."
MacKay sacrificed his life for the public's safety, so his fellow officers in-turn protected him. They followed his casket on the ground and in the air; even the mounted police stood guard. During the service, sheep dogs stood by. It's an animal known as a protector in the Scottish culture.
"It could be anybody, it could be any of us or one of our family members, our friends. It was our friend, a friend lost her husband, we lost a co-worker and now another law enforcement family member," said Nees.
"This is not goodbye, this is just, 'See you later, Jeremiah,'" said Alan MacKay.

Breaking News: Jennifer Lopez And Marc Anthony Split
Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony confirmed to People today that they are ending their seven-year marriage. The parents to twins Max and Emme, 3. The two, who had been friends for years, married in a secret ceremony at Lopez's Beverly Hills home back in 2004. The two never showed signs that their marriage was in trouble, so this split comes as kind of a surprise.
PHOTOS: Jennifer Lopez Shows Some Skin At The BAFTAs
Lopez brought her mother, Guadalupe to last Saturday night's BAFTA "Brits To Watch" gala, but most assumed it was because mama Lopez wanted to meet the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. The statement to People read, "We have decided to end our marriage. This was a very difficult decision. We have come to an amicable conclusion on all matters."
Lopez recently announced that she will be returning as a judge to American Idol.

Bahrain hosts Middle East Project Finance 2004 conference
Economic diversification and liberalisation and private sector expansion are creating a robust environment for investment in the GCC and wider Middle East region, said Khalid Abdulla Al Bassam, Deputy Governor of the Bahrain Monetary Agency (BMA).
And, as the region's economy gains greater momentum, the need for new infrastructure facilities, funded through project finance transactions, is providing a valuable opportunity for foreign and regional investors, he said.
Mr. Al Bassam was delivering the welcome address at the Middle East Project Finance 2004 conference, which opened in Bahrain Tuesday.
The two-day event, taking place at the Ritz-Carlton Bahrain Hotel, has been organised by MEED Conferences, under the patronage of the BMA. Borrowers, lenders, investors and government officials are attending the event, which spotlights the financing opportunities arising from major projects across the energy and other infrastructure sectors.
"Changes are taking place that would have been almost unimaginable a few decades ago," said Al Bassam.
"These changes are transforming the practice of business across the Middle East, and more specifically they are transforming the economies of the Gulf region."
The changing landscape has put the countries of the region among the most attractive investment destinations, with Bahrain ranked 29 out of 140 countries in the United Nations report on global investment.
"One of the most important of the changes that is happening is the growing importance of the private sector in the diversification strategy of the countries in the Gulf region and, indeed, in the wider Middle East as well," said Al Bassam.
In Bahrain, the telecommunications sector has been liberalised, and the involvement of the private sector is increasing in the power and water sector.
Bahrain has also recently concluded a Free Trade Agreement (FTA) with the US, which aims at achieving extensive liberalisation across a wide spectrum of trade issues, both in terms of goods and services.
In the regional arena, GCC states enjoy free trade arrangements among member states, while a monetary union is expected to be completed by 2010.
These developments are creating massive project opportunities in a number of sectors, most notably oil and gas, power generation, tourism, telecommunications, transportation and information technology.
Investors should also benefit from a strong and mature financial services industry, said Al Bassam.
"One of our priorities has been to develop a strong financial sector," he said. "There is now the financial capacity and expertise that allows firms investing in the region, and undertaking projects in the region, to be confident that they are dealing with strong and reputable financial institutions."
Bahrain, in particular, has been active in developing a broad-based, profitable and well-connected financial sector. BMA has also ensured that the financial sector is well managed and well regulated.
"The opportunities are here and the economic environment is extremely favourable. The financial sectors in Bahrain and the Gulf countries are well up to the challenges of meeting the financial needs of the region," said Al Bassam. (menareport.com)

The Cellar Door is a large contemporary facility, with large glass sliding doors opening up to the outdoor amphitheatre, grape receival and crushing area and surrounding vines. The fit out features polished concrete floors, timber and stainless steel.
The tasting bar has a crisp white benchtop providing a perfect backdrop for first examining the colour of the wine – an integral part of the wine tasting process. A wide selection of merchandise and giftware is available for sale, including products and produce such as chilli oil, olives and preserved lemons under the Esca Bimbadgen label, allowing visitors to take the taste of Esca away with them.

Peaceful Holiday in Northumberland
Sal64, Sheffield
We are just coming to the end of our week at Rose Cottage. We arrived to a lovely warm cottage with milk and biscuits waiting for us. The living room and bedroom are good sized and the living room has a lovely wood burner in an enormous fireplace, and two very comfortable sofas. The kitchen has everything needed to cook a meal if eating in, the bathroom has a good shower over the bath. Central heating keeps the cottage very cosy. The bed is super comfy with a very good duvet. The location is lovely and very quiet, I think we saw at most a dozen cars go by in the week we were here. It was nice to look out and see the many birds coming and going, as well as the stoat we saw every day going to and from the field across the road. It's about the same distance from the cottage to Alnwick or Berwick both of which has everything you would need, and Belford is only a couple of miles away which has a Co-Op and a chip shop and a nice café. The farm shop at Belford is nice too, being early December they had some lovely Christmas gifts. Bamburgh is only a couple of miles away with the castle overlooking the beach which goes on for miles, the beaches up here have to be the best (and quietest) in the country. The weather while we were here was not good but we got out and about every day, we would have been quite happy to stay in though, it's a lovely comfortable cottage. We will definitely return soon.
Breaks For 2 replied: Thank you Sally for a lovely review. I'm very pleased that you have enjoyed your stay in Rose Cottage. Sorry I was unable to catch you to say hello. I look forward to welcoming you back to Breaks For 2 again in the near future.
Delightful cottage
maxine-poe, Lewes, United Kingdom
We had a wonderful time staying at Rose cottage, which was warm, cosy & well equipped and in a peaceful location. It was our first time in North Northumberland and it won't be our last. Beautiful countryside & wonderful beaches .Bamburgh, Holy Island, Berwick upon Tweed & Alnwick are worth a visit. Can recommend Neptune in Seahouses for fish & chips and The Ship Inn at Low Newton by Sea does a lovely crab sandwich.
Breaks For 2 replied: Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. I'm very pleased that you enjoyed your break in Rose Cottage and I look forward to welcoming you back to our farm in Northumberland.
wonderful place to escape to !

we stayed here for a week at the end of june our only regret was not hiring the cottage for longer , warm and friendly and totally relaxing, and a brilliant base to explore northumberland from, were already looking forward to booking again, many thanks !
Breaks For 2 replied: Thank you taking the time to review Rose cottage. I'm pleased you had an enjoyable stay and I hope to welcome you back again in the future.
The perfect retreat ��
Byrkley, Burton on trent
We recently had a long weekend in Rose Cottage and what a fabulous time we had, the cottage was perfectly clean, very cosy with the lovely log burner. It is a perfect retreat for 2 and in a beautiful location with nothing for miles other than stunning countryside, we spotted lots of birds and even red squirrels. The very dark night sky is fantastic for star gazing. The only complaint we have is we had to leave! 😊
Great little getaway in a quiet but handy location
Matt G,
We stayed at Rose Cottage for our anniversary in March. About 2 miles from Bamburgh, a log burner, quiet backwater location and surrounded by great footpaths out of the front door! What more could you want. We walked into Bamburgh which took about 90 minutes then extended it round the coast with incredible views of Holy Island which I would recommend. We visited Ford and Etal, Seahouses, Beadnell, Dunstanburgh plus more all a maximum of 20 minutes drive. All in all a great cottage at a very reasonable price. Tips - take candles for evenings, newspaper for firelighting, try the Bamburgh Bangers from the butchers for breakfast and have a pint in The Ship, Low Newton We'll be back

Your friend in St. Thérèse,
Fr. Fernando Millan Romeral, O. Carm.

In Light of Sequestration: A breakdown of some federal programs
Do you think we could trim and live without a few of these federal government programs:
According to the Government Accountability Office, the government runs 50 different programs for the homeless across eight agencies,
23 programs for housing aid in four agencies,
26 programs for food and nutrition aid among six agencies,
27 programs on teen pregnancy,
130 programs for at-risk youth,
10 agencies to promote exports
342 programs for economic development.
The federal government runs 47 different job-training programs at a cost to the taxpayer of $18 billion annually. The GAO found that "Only 5 of the 47 programs ... examined had done detailed impact studies" and that among those "the effects of participation were not consistent across programs, with only some demonstrating positive impacts that tended to be small, inconclusive, or restricted to short-term impacts."
Entitlements eat up two-thirds of federal spending and are excluded from sequestration, which is too bad because an estimated $20 billion is wasted on Medicare fraud every year.
As for Medicaid, a New York Times investigation found that between 10 and 40 percent of New York's spending was lost to fraud and theft yearly. Other estimates suggest that 33 percent of Earned Income Tax Credits (about $9 billion annually) are erroneous or fraudulent
Now let's take a look at growth in government spending:

For a long time, the most compelling argument against fame was, in fact, fictional: upon repeat viewings, Richard Curtis' allegedly heart-warming Notting Hill reads more and more like a blistering screed against the agony of life in the celebrity gossip panopticon.
In that film, Julia Roberts' character, Anna, is hounded at every turn by paparazzi, slandered by tabloids, and unable to walk a block without some dolt bailing her up for a chat or an autograph. It was, in short, not much of a life, but we could at least take some cold comfort from the fact that, as it was a movie, perhaps it wasn't quite that bad in real life.
Now, we have a six-second documentary film of pure, agonising awfulness that should serve as an antidote to any fame-hungry aspiring "entertainers", and it comes in the form of this Vine of One Direction member Liam Payne:
The video, complete with its brain-numbing snippet of merry-go-round-esque music, presents Payne as the ultimate product: his sole purpose is to smile for endless selfies with fans who've camped out along the red carpet.
As The Independent's Christopher Hooton puts it, Payne is reduced to "adopting false smiles for the camera in between looking like he's just watched There Will Be Blood back-to-back 15 times".
Watching Payne smile for all eternity in the purgatory of red carpet selfies (thanks to Vine's looping function), I am reminded of Andrew O'Hehir's review of Stephen Soderbergh's towering Magic Mike, in which he writes: "there is no escape for Magic Mike, or any of us, from the permanent Tampa strip club of the mind, where we sit inhaling Buffalo wings and making it rain all over the latest naked offering". Payne will be turning that smile on for the rest of his career, until he has assumed Peter Andre's position in the Iceland advert of the future, flogging cheap frozen cakes to cyborgs who ask, "Hey, didn't you used to be --".
Who's on next? Who cares! The turnover of fame and fortune in this era is so fast that there will likely be another boy band member in Payne's position before too long: perhaps a member of 5SOS or whoever turns out to be "the next One Direction".
Indeed, with each passing year, I find it harder and harder to fathom why anybody would want to be famous.
That is, fame in its purest, most 21st-Century sense: not professional or creative success, not worldwide renown or admiration from your peers, but just plain old "blinded by camera flashes at every turn" famous. And yet, here we are in 2014, and the "get famous quick" model of reality TV talent quests continues apace. It's been decades since Matt and Luke Goss of Bros first barked "WHEN, WILL I, WILL I BE FAMOUS?!" and despite the song's refrain, millions of people are still desperate for an answer.
And maybe soon, some poor sod will find themselves in Payne's position, stripped of all agency and reduced to little more than an Instagram hashtag, with nothing but their mountain of money and a crushing sense of existential dread to show for it.

[USA MEN] U.S. national team head coach Jurgen Klinsmann has added 11 additional players to the initial squad of 16 that
is training at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex in Orlando, Fla. Perhaps the biggest surprise is that Juan Agudelo was included, while Kenny Cooper of the New York Red Bulls, who just traded Agudelo to Chivas USA, was not called in. Brek Shea, who had played
every game for Klinsmann, probably paid the price for this current three-game suspension as he was not called in.
Only five MLS players were among the late call-ups: Geoff Cameron (Houston Dynamo), Graham Zusi (Sporting Kansas City), Landon Donovan (LA Galaxy), Chris Wondolowski (San Jose Earthquakes) and Agudelo, who started for Chivas USA Saturday in his debut against the Los Angeles Galaxy but tired in the second half.
Said Klinsmann, "We have Juan Agudelo coming in after a difficult first part of the season for him, not qualifying for the Olympics, struggling with an injury, and now with the trade to Chivas USA that we hope gives him a lift because he couldn't pass by Thierry Henry and Kenny Cooper at the Red Bulls. He has an opportunity now, and we want him to grab it and make clear to everyone that he deserves to be a starter no matter where he plays."
Agudelo's call-up for training camp in Florida means he won't return to Red Bull Arena to face the Red Bulls when Chivas USA comes to town on Wednesday.
On some of the other MLS players, Klinsmann said, "Graham Zusi left a very strong impression in the January camp. Geoff Cameron is a guy that is really knocking at the door, with a very strong January camp but also very strong performances for Houston. You have Chris Wondolowski who is scoring and scoring. This is what he loves to do and his attitude and his spirit is just great for a team to have."
Shea was suspended for kicking a ball at an assistant referee and has not duplicated his success he had last season with FC Dallas.
"We have watched Brek during the last few months," said Klinsmann, "and given his performances and some of the other issues we felt he should be on the standby list. He's still a young player with a lot of talent, and also a lot to learn."

Here are some pics:
what you end up buying if youre selling these?
had 2 pair of 2011 union forces. black and cyan. like the black better.
sites online have em for 160 shipped
what sites? if you don't mind me asking.
Sell them for what you want man. It would be different is someone said Ill buy them for 160.00 because they are that online.. NOT all unions are on sale only certain colors, I have not seen white or black unions on sale only yellow
160 is a great price for new bindings
yeah. when I did a search, couldn't find any other either and like i sd these are bnib!
Wow! I hope not ones interested either because you don't need bindings, they're the wrong size or you just don't like union. I hope it's not the price. They have never been used, all orig hardware, everything in the box and shipping alone is around $15. With tax I pd approx $210 and I'm selling them for $180 + free shipping. That's a $45 loss for me, but your gain. I'm not ranting, again, I just hope the price isn't the problem.

Guus Hiddink
Guus Hiddink is the current coach of the Russian national football team.
AppealLooking like a crumpled Bulldog puppy, Guus Hiddink is far from a matinee idol, but he has gained admiration the world over for his technical prowess in the dugout.
After his exploits with the South Korean national side in the 2002 FIFA World Cup, the Dutchman was awarded honorary South Korean citizenship; he had a football stadium renamed in his honour and has free flights for life on Korean Airlines. Although not a sex-symbol the world over just yet, Hiddink can go to bed knowing that there is forever a corner of Asia where women hold him dear to their hearts.
SuccessDespite being more famous today for his international coaching roles, Hiddink has also managed at club level at Real Madrid, Real Betis, Fenerbahce and Valencia amongst others, but his most successful spells were at Dutch PSV Eindhoven. With six domestic league titles and one European Cup in his two spells in charge at the club, his domestic record looks healthy, but is unproven away from his homeland.
Hiddink's international escapades with some of football's unlikeliest underdogs have seen his currency rise. First taking Holland to the semis of World Cup 98, he returned to domestic management before taking over the South Korean national side in preparation for hosting the 2002 World Cup. His supremely fit and regimented team exceeded all expectations, ending the tournament in fourth place.
Hiddink then took the Socceroos (Australia) to the 2006 World Cup finals for the first time in 32 years, before taking over as Russian coach that summer. He has crafted a hard working and technically skilled team that managed to reach the Euro 2008 semi-finals -- the best performance by a post-USSR team. His impressive CV led Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich to hire him as a replacement for the under-performing Brazilian Phil Scolari.
Guus Hiddink BiographyGuus Hiddink was born November 8th, 1946 in Varsseveld, Holland and has a museum dedicated to him in his home town named the Guuseum.
guus hiddink playing daysGuus Hiddink spent most of his playing career in midfield for Dutch side De Graafschap, playing there from 1967-70 and 1972-76, with a brief unsuccessful spell at PSV Eindhoven in between. He then plied his trade for various teams in the North American Soccer League for a short while before returning to Holland to play for NEC in 1978. Returning to De Graafschap for one last hurrah in 1981, he retired from playing in 1982.
guus hiddink club managementEarning his managerial spurs at De Graafschap, Hiddink went on to become PSV Eindhoven's assistant coach in 1984, before taking over the reins himself in 1987. His side would win the Dutch league three times and the European Cup for the first time in the club's history in 1988. He would have two relatively uneventful stints at Turkish side Fenerbahce and then Spanish side Valencia before taking on the role as national coach for Holland in 1995.
guus hiddink at hollandGuus Hiddink inherited a Dutch side packed with talented individuals, but one racked by the internal disputes perennially associated with the team. He took his team to the quarter-finals of Euro 1996 where they lost on penalties to France, but his strong-armed approach to his team of prima-donnas would dominate the news, when he sent Edgar Davids home from the tournament following an argument. He then qualified for the World Cup 98 with Holland, where his side played some of the more attractive football in the tournament before going out in the semis to Brazil.
Following World Cup 1998, Hiddink returned to club football with two unfortunate spells at Real Madrid then Real Betis which saw him sacked twice in the space of two years.
guus hiddink international mercenaryWith South Korea named as co-hosts for the 2002 World Cup, the search began for a national coach for the Korean team that could match the nation's expectations for progression in the first Asian World Cup. With a strictly regimented and super-fit team, his Korean side exceeded all expectations with historic wins over Poland, Portugal, Italy and Spain to reach the semi-finals. They would go on to lose in the semis to Germany, and then the third place play-off to Turkey, but in reaching fourth, Hiddink had become a national treasure. He was then given honorary South Korean citizenship, a private villa, free flights on Korean Airlines and free taxi rides anywhere in the country. The World Cup stadium in Gwangju was renamed in his honour as the Guus Hiddink Stadium.
A second successful stint at PSV Eindhoven in 2002-2006 would bring further domestic triumph for Hiddink with three more league titles, one Dutch Cup, and one Dutch Super Cup, making him the most successful domestic Dutch coach ever. While at PSV, Hiddink took on the dual role as coach of the Australian national side in 2005 in preparation for the 2006 World Cup. Hiddink ensured qualification through a penalty shoot out against Uruguay and became a cult hero in Australia for taking the Socceroos to the finals for the first time in 32 years. They progressed through to the knockout stages for the first time in their history, but cruelly went out to Italy 1-0 following a controversial, last-gasp penalty decision, in the dying seconds of the game.
Following Australia's exit from the tournament, Hiddink was announced as the Russian team coach in a deal allegedly bankrolled by Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich. His disciplined management style brought a new-found cohesion to the Russian team, and results became markedly improved. In the Euro 2008 qualifiers his team would out-perform the favourites England and go on to qualify for the finals along with Croatia. The team performed well and reached the semis before losing to the eventual winners Spain.
guus hiddink takes over at chelsea fcHiddink committed his future to Russia for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, but with Luiz Felipe Scolari being sacked by Chelsea in February 2009, his name was associated with the Stamford Bridge job due to his links with Abramovich. On February 11, 2009, Guus hiddink took on the dual role of coaching both Chelsea and the Russian national team. Despite calls for him to stay with the Blues on a long-term basis, Hiddink left The Bridge at the end of the season in 2009 after guiding the team to a 2-1 victory over Everton in the FA Cup final. The Blues also narrowly missed out on a Champions League final appearance after going out in controversial circumstances to Barcelona, after several seemingly clear-cut penalty appeals for the Londoners were ignored by the referee.

Dining area
Our fantasy, as the weather gets warm? That we can just pick up our lives and move them outside. Which is exactly what our Ultimate Outdoor Living Room, unveiled at June 2012's Celebration Weekend open house, in Menlo Park, California, is all about. Here, you could spend all day entertaining, lounging, reading, napping—even cooling off in the shower. But the design's not just about indulgence. If you look closely, you'll see space-saving touches (the tilt-up chaises rising from the deck), salvaged materials put to work (check out the bar's countertop), and the efficient use of what is, after all, only 1,700 square feet of outdoor space.
Here, like 3-D wallpaper, mesh pockets filled with bromeliads, ferns, and purple heart hang in the dining area.

hi guys,
i have a slight problem with my 05. the only mod is a k&n short ram, and the 3/16 mod - around a month ago the car would surge in third near 4500 to 5+ rpm - like boost spikes, i think as i can hear the wastegate.
then it went away the same day
then today the car did the same, but in all gears and it had no power near and past 5k - i tried to wind it up in 3rd ( near 5k ) then shifted to 4th and it popped from the intake - not a backfire, but a pop and still no power
i i lean into it slow it is ok untill 45-5k
i have heard that the EGT sensor can cause this. no engine light and no codes

Crossing Huron Lake...
it's a Lake.
11.09.2009 - 16.09.2009
View The big trip on martgina's travel map.
this is what went on in my head as we're on the ferry across to Manitoulin Island.... with no land in sight.
Hmmm. Got to keep my eyes open for Humpback Whales or Dolphins.
No Whales, No Dolphins, Dummy. It's a Lake.
It can't be a Lake, it's too bloomin' big.
No seriously, look at the map, it's a Lake.
ok then. But over there, that shadow, looks like....
It's a Lake.
And so on.
And folks, Lake Huron isn't even the biggest of the Great Lakes. That Honour belongs to Her Majesty, the aptly named Lake Superior. The largest body of fresh water on the planet. It's so big that it's got a ground swell and creates it's own weather system. It is also eyewateringly beautiful - we went for a few hours of canoeing - we weren't lucky enought to see Bears or Moose but the serenety and peacefulness of the place had something profoundly spiritual about it, and i would have gladly spend a few weeks there, just us and the canoe and our little campsite on the beach in Agawa bay. Instead, after 2 nights it was time to head north and west for some serious miles as we crossed the rest of Ontario and into the Great Plains - A change from endless Forests and mountains and millions of Lakes to wide, big open skies and Prairie and Grass... This is where the Buffalo was once hunted by the people of the First Nations.
We're now in Saskatoon, on the other side of the Great Plains, and we hoped to find out more about the culture and lives of the native peoples here at the Heritage park nearby, but sadly it's closed for building work. Well at least we've got time to update our blog!
Hope you're all well - Photos will be forthcoming i promise!

Outlet stopped working
My house was built before 1920. I have one three prong outlet that is on its own circuit breaker with old wiring. It stopped working after working fine for over 20 years. The circuit breaker was still on. Upon opening the outlet box I found that the case ground was connected to the outlet neutral and ground. The "white wire was not connected to anything and was wrapped with electrical tape. Using a multimeter I found that there was 56 volts across the outlet, 96 volts from hot to white wire, and 25 volts between the white wire and ground. There are no loads on this line as far as
I know. What could be going on? how can I fix it?
If the voltages don't drop to ~0v search for a bad neutral connection [one that shows >> a 3 millivolt drop across it].
If they do drop to zero, those wires are not connected to anything and the voltages are due to ~100 picofarads per foot of parasitic capacitance in the cables.
Thanks for the reply. Should I put the load across the hot and "white" wire which would seem correct or between the hot and the green wire, the way the outlet was originally wired many years ago?
The bulb goes across your voltmeter leads, converting your meter into a low input impedance voltmeter.
Then any measured voltages that stay above ~0v have a low source impedance.
The source impedance of a good, correcly wired outlet measured across the short slot and the long slot should be about 1/4 ohm, per page 7 of this
So if an outlet measures 120v and you load it down with a hair dryer pulling 10A, the voltage should drop no more than 1/4 x 10 = ~2.5v.
You are measuring the Thevenin Equivalent Impedance.
I recommend reading the voltages between a known good ground, like a cold water pipe, and the wire to be tested.
120v that lights the bulb is almost certainly the hot wire and is supposed to be the black wire.
Then, 120v that lights the bulb between this hot wire and the others almost certainly means the others are neutral or ground.
Don't qualify for a Darwin Award!
With a load on the hot and "white" wire the voltage across the load dropped to zero. However the voltage between these wires and ground is 28 volts. Any more ideas?
So the voltage across hot and white drops to zero with a lamp load? This means these two wires are not connected to a "stiff" (~1/4 ohm) source, but one of them may still be.
Voltage, hot to Known-Good-Ground with lamp load =?
Voltage, white to KGG with lamp load = ?
One conductor of a 50' extension cord makes a good, long voltmeter test lead to connect to your good ground.
I find that it is sometimes difficult to get a good connection by poking a voltmeter probe into a socket so I recommend you plug in a turned-off appliance and then retract the plug just enough to contact the plug blades, 1/4" or so.
If your plugs pull out easily, you have another problem in that the spring contacts are weak, which cause high temps in the outlet and shorten motor lifetimes.
Jeez why don't we make this as complicated we can.....:(
Take the bulb tester and forget the digital multimeter. Touch (carefully) the black wire the other black ...touch white to ground does it light the bulb?... N0....open ground or no power on the black.
Test black wire to black and white wire to white...does not light the bulb... ...open neutral or No power on the black.
Do you have voltage at the breaker terminal....?
Well I discovered that there is a hallway light on the same circuit breaker. It is working fine. Also the wiring to the circuit breaker is relatively new. So somewhere there must be a junction box. I have not been able to find it.
Hi Nealt
You are on the right track while you have the hallway light switch box open and the ceiling fixture you need to check the connections and find everything powered by that breaker.
When you say the wiring to the breaker box is new are you talking very recently and the outlet stopped coincidently with that work?
Also using the ground as neutral is a no-no so when you find the problem you need to get that unused white wire at the outlet connected as the neutral and the ground to the equipment ground.
Whenever HO's ask me about test equipment, I always tell them to get a wiggy (or just borrow mine). 99% of the time, we just need to know if we have zero, 120 or 240V or measure for continuity.
In my line of work which deals with low voltage DC signaling circuits (12 or 24/28V DC), the good guys all carry a test light which is nothing more than a 12V incandescent bulb connected to a couple of aligators. Especially when you're dealing with line circuits that can be on the order of miles in length, DVM's will lie like a rug. But a test light never does.:thumbsup:

MORENO VALLEY, Calif. - A former Moreno Valley High School assistant football coach was arrested for alleged sex-related crimes that included soliciting a minor for sex, a deputy said Saturday.
A school administrator was told Friday that Manuel Eliud Leyva, 19, of Moreno Valley, allegedly solicited several juveniles for sex during the 2012-2013 school year when he still worked for the school district.
The administrator alerted the sheriff's deputy assigned to the high school and an
investigation confirmed that one such alleged solicitation happened in the past, Riverside County sheriff's Sgt. Joel Morales said.
None of the crimes happened on school property, Morales said, and the gender of Leyva's alleged victims was not disclosed. Leyva turned himself in at the high school on Cottonwood Avenue and he was arrested, officials said.
Leyva was booked on suspicion of soliciting a minor and possessing the child pornography. Leyva remained behind bars today with bail set at $1 million, records showed.
Sheriff's detectives believe there are other victims, and said Leyva used social media to contact and meet with minors.
Deputies asked anyone with knowledge about the case to call Investigator James Merrill at the Moreno Valley sheriff's station at (951) 486-6700.
