" Brand: Others / Type: Carpet Cleaner / Category: Cleaning & Disinfectant "
* Prices may differ from that shown
Yesterday as I was doing my normal weekly shop I was looking to buy something to clean odd stained patches on our carpets. There were stains from when our ancient and incontinent cat accidently made a mess on our new stair carpet and another couple of marks in our sitting room from spillages. These had been cleaned at the time of the problem but still could be seen and I wasn't happy about them.
I had hired a huge steam cleaner last summer and cleaned all the carpets but they still had these dull stained patches. I was beginning to get a little frustrated at the fact that nothing seemed to get them out. They are not huge or even that major but they are there and I can see them. We have beige coloured carpets and I was even going to give dilute bleach a try as I was so fed up.
I thought about a carpet stain remover instead of a cleaner and was looking for something in a bottle like 1001 trouble shooter and was giving the shelves with cleaners a good inspection. I read the backs of a few bottles but nothing seemed that different until I noticed in the Eco area something called NATURAL AND CLEAN dry carpet cleaner.
This NATURAL AND CLEANER had NEW on the front and comes in a plastic pouch with re-sealable zip type top. On the front it states that a free brush is included. I wasn't quite sure where this would be as it was not stuck on the side. I felt the pouch by squeezing it through the plastic and there was something hard inside so I thought it could be the brush.
Very excited about the possibility that this new stuff might work I cut open the top of the pouch being careful to leave the zipped part for resealing later. I looked inside to find the brush but could see nothing except powder that looked a bit like soft wet sand. I get a fork to see if I could find the brush and did find something hard so I tried to fish it out with the fork but it wouldn't budge. I was reluctant to put my fingers in as it says on the back "Avoid prolonged contact with skin". I spent at least 5 minutes struggling with the fork and then gave up and put in my fingers to grab the brush. I pulled and still nothing. It was stuck. Every time I tried to pull out the brush (wrapped in clear plastic) it wouldn't come out without half the contents of the pack as well.
In the end I tipped half the powder into a container until I could see the brush and then pulled it out. Even now some of the powder spilled onto the work top. Great I finally had the brush though. I unwrapped it from its plastic wrapper dusting powder off over the carpet (Waste not want not) and then joined the brush and handle together - now I was finally ready to try my new cleaner.
I gathered the cleaner and brush and set about sprinkling the powder onto the stains and brushing the powder into the stained area. It says don't brush too aggressively so I just brushed until the powder was into the carpet rather than sitting on top. The powder is a sort of sand colour but slightly damp and soft in texture, it goes into the carpet grain quite easily with the brush with not rubbing at all hard. It then says to leave the powder to absurd the dirt for a minimum of 10 minutes or until completely dry before vacuuming away. I think I left the first lot about 20 minutes as I stripped and made a bed while waiting.
I took the vacuum up the stairs and vacuumed the stained areas. I have to say I am impressed, finally I cannot see patches of stain where there have been marks for over a year in some places. Often with natural biodegradable cleaners the results are less than spectacular but this seems to work. It also leaves a pleasant cleaned smell afterwards too.
The product is made by NATURAL AND CLEAN Ltd in Kent in the UK. It is a unique 'active plant' formulation for gentle but effective cleaning - safe for pets, people and the planet. It is suitable for all types of carpet including wool and of course being dry you can use the area straight away without waiting hours for it to dry.
Having been so impressed I then decided I needed to share this with everyone and write a review so I went to find out more about the company and the product from the website :
The company seem to just make safe and natural carpet cleaning products. One of these is the pouch I bought but they have wipes and spot cleaners and other variations but they are all for cleaning carpets.
This is from their product explanation on the website and there seems little point in me re-explaining it when they do it quite clearly;
"Natural & Clean dry carpet cleaner is a natural, organic and biodegradable product, dermatologically balanced - pH 5.5 - (the same pH as human skin and wool fibres) making it safe to handle and use. The highly absorbent Natural & Clean dry carpet cleaner is impregnated with environmentally aware cleaning formulae which leaves no sticky residues to attract dirt. Solvent & phosphate free."
It appears that the powdery stuff is slightly damp when spread on the carpet stain and as it dries it absorbs the stain or dirt from the carpet. As you vacuum this powder with dirt is then sucked away leaving the carpet clean and pleasant smelling.
They say it works on all carpets from wool through nylon to sisal. Our carpets are wool in some rooms and man-made fibre on the stairs and it worked equally well for me on both types of carpet. I don't have any sisal carpet so can't give any judgement on its cleaning ability on that type of flooring.
I was most impressed and will not be bothering with other cleaners for my carpet; I will be sticking to this in future. I can honestly say it worked where other methods and cleaners had failed so it is a "big thumbs up" from me.
Thanks for reading - also published on Ciao under my name.
The granules absorb dirt from the carpet fibres when agitated.

The subject of my message more > or less summarizes my confusion. You're encountering one of my favorite features of Cabal. When you build a package, Cabal passess the -hide-all-packages option to GHC, which prevents the package from using any installed packages other than the ones explicitly listed in the Build-Depends: field. This is a Good Thing, because it means that whether or not a package builds depends *only* on the versions of the Build-Depended packages; other random packages on your system cannot possibly have any effect. Unfortunately, it means that splitting an existing package (base -> base + pretty + directory + old-time, with much more to come) is less than transparent; all packages which use HughesPJ need their Build-Depends field modified to include pretty, etc. Thomas Schilling's "configurations" allows a package to build with split and unsplit bases, but requires the logic to handle this be present in every package that wants to use base, and is only in HEAD cabal. I personally advocate a Debian-style system of Provides and re-exposing, but haven't yet bothered to actually implement it at all. I'm sure other people have other approaches. For now, we just edit .cabal files when transporting code between GHC versions... Stefan -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Don't stand between a man and his bag -- especially if it's a luxury clutch from Neiman Marcus.
Two men "wearing black hooded sweatshirts, black jeans and black shoes" strolled out of the Neiman Marcus at the Stanford Shopping Center in Palo Alto with 13 Diane von Furstenberg purses worth approximately $7,500 on Saturday, the Palo Alto Daily News reported.
The men walked into the store around 3 p.m. and started putting the bags, worth $245 to $645 each, on their arms, "six purses on one arm and like three on another," according to a police spokesman.
The bold thieves then proceeded to walk out of the store. Neiman Marcus loss prevention officers gave chase, but gave up when the thieves fired pepper spray at the purse-guardian, the newspaper reported. There were no injuries, but the pepper spray gave enough of a cushion for the two men to escape in a black Chevy Impala with paper license plates, the newspaper reported.
The men remain at large.

"There's no justifiable reason to continue the [HPV vaccine] mandate which is expensive and unnecessary and potentially dangerous. No one ever died from a Pap smear," testified Emily Tarsell, who lost her daughter, Christina, 18 days after she received her third shot of the HPV vaccine Gardasil.
Dr. Sin Hang Lee, a pathologist with more than 50 years experience who studied in the lab created by the inventor of the Pap test, also testified May 5 before the D.C. Council's Committee on Health. "There is no evidence that Gardasil is effective for reducing the incidence of cervical cancer," said Dr. Lee, who drove down from Milford, Connecticut for the hearing.
D.C.'s HPV vaccine mandate for sixth grade girls was pushed through by At-large Councilmember David Catania, the powerful chair of the Health Committee. Surprisingly, Mr. Catania was unable to respond to the testimony of either Dr. Lee ("Thank you, doctor. Your time has expired.) or Ms. Tarsell ("Thank you very much.").
Nor did Mr. Catania respond to Dr. Paul Levine's testimony, which he may not have heard all of since he was busy talking on the phone. The research professor suggested that the correct approach to reducing cervical cancer involved "using the best methods, not the ones that… most quickly seem [to become] popular."
Catania also failed to respond to the testimony of members of the Parents and Citizens Committee to Stop Medical Experimentation in D.C. (of which I'm a member). Tracy Lloyd McCurty testified, "The citizens of D.C. deserve a responsive City Council and Department of Health that puts the health and safety of our young girls before political agendas." Kea Taylor said, "I'm asking that you respect the wishes of the residents of the District of Columbia, none of whom have come before you on behalf of this vaccination being mandatory." And Vanessa Dixon said, "It is too soon to say for sure whether the so-called vaccine has prevented even one cancer."
I also testified. "Four years ago, the District of Columbia passed its mandate, and since that time not a single state has followed suit… When it comes to the HPV vaccine mandate this country is divided into two: on one side, opposed to the mandate, is almost the entire country; on the other side, standing in splendid isolation, is the District of Columbia and the Virginia State Senate." Mr. Catania's (lack of a) response to my testimony ("Thank you, Mr. Tucker") was actually an improvement from years past when he banned me from testifying without any explanation.
How is it that someone who brooks no opposition has come to have oversight of the Department of Health budget, which is in excess of $2 billion? District residents may be alarmed to learn that so much power has been concentrated in the hands of someone with contempt for those with whom he disagrees.

I've got the orange peel skin thing going on (peau d'orange). My breast is red and warm to the touch. It aches almost all the time. I've also got a lump about half way between my breast and armpit.
I had a partial mastectomy back in September. Then I did radiation. No chemo.
I've been back to the doctor several times about this. The radiation oncologist sent me back to the surgeon. The surgeon put me on antibiotics twice. They didn't seem to make much difference. So, here I am, about 5 weeks since first finding this and the ultra sound finally showed something. Just a dark spot. Prior to this all you could see was that the tissue wasn't "right." I had a mammogram last week and everything looked as it should according to the radiologist. Lots of scar tissue from the radiation and surgery.
So, finally, my question. Isn't peau d'orange also associated with generalized swelling that I might still be experiencing from having had the radiation? I finished radiation at the end of November. Maybe there shouldn't be any swelling at this point. I just don't know. You would think that with the medical oncologist and the surgeon both seeing this that if it was cancer someone would have said something to me by now. Or maybe this is swelling caused from lymphoedema. I know that no one here can really give me an answer to this one but if you have a similar story, I'd love to hear it.
Mar 06, 2012 - 11:06 pm
I don't know what this might be. Would you consider a 2nd opinion? I am a big fan of them, especially if I am not getting answers.
Is everyone saying the dark spot is scar tissue or what?
Like I said, I'd go for a 2nd opinion if you can, just to see what is going on. Good luck and keep us updated.
Sue :)
Mar 07, 2012 - 1:02 am
I don't want to scare you, but the orange peel skin is a symptom of inflammatory breast cancer. To confirm my IBC dx, the doc did a skin biopsy of the swollen red area. I would suggest you ask for one, if only to rule out IBC.
I hope you find the answer soon, and best wishes.
Mar 07, 2012 - 6:26 am
Of the same opinion of the other girls.....get it checked now! A second opinion is always right! Even a third if needed...
Wishing you the very best,
Mar 07, 2012 - 10:50 am
I agree with everyone. Please find out what this is and don't wait.
Good luck,
Mar 07, 2012 - 6:40 am
They thought mine was IBC at first but after doing a biopsy knew it wasn't. My tumor didn't show on the mammogram and it was 6cm. I ended up seeing a second surgeon with more experience because the first surgeon had only been in practice a year and didn't know how to proceed with treatment.
Mar 07, 2012 - 11:21 am
IF (and that is a very LARGE 'IF') you are dealing with IBC - time is of the essence. If it is an infection/cellulitis time is also of the essence. Red, warm and pain alone shows that there is s'something going on'; add in the skin, lump , with 'dark spot' added in - another opinion is needed ASAP!
It should be quite easy for them to do a needle biopsy on the 'lump'.
There is a very good chance that there is some infection going on that is not sensitive to the antibiotics you've had - not all infections will will respond to any particular antibiotic. Either way - you need to find out what's going on now.
Thoughts and prayers.
Mar 07, 2012 - 3:31 pm
Second opinions are great or 3rd or whatever it takes to get answers. I will be praying for you and watching for any update.
Hugs, Megan
Mar 07, 2012 - 7:09 pm
I'll call the radiation oncologist tomorrow. He is the one that I have the best relationship with. I'll talk to him about IBC. If that's what this is then you ladies are right, I probably shouldn't have waited the five weeks that I have. Hopefully though, this is just a side effect of radiation and the removal of lymph nodes. That's what I'm hoping. So, keep your fingers crossed. I'll call first thing in the morning. Thanks for all the suggestions, I'll get right on it and I'll let you know what he says.
Mar 10, 2012 - 1:23 am
I have an appointment on Monday at 2:30pm. I'll keep you guys posted.
Thanks for the continued prayers.
Mar 10, 2012 - 4:53 pm

Manhattan Beach residents are hailing the city's decision to install a new traffic light on Oriental Boulevard as a true lifesaver this week.
"Thank God it finally happened," Community Board 15 Chair Theresa Scavo said. "I think they really saw the community outcry."
The Department of Transportation (DOT) confirmed that it is now designing a new pedestrian controlled traffic light to be installed at the intersection of Oriental Boulevard and Irwin Street in March.
"We are delighted that the decision to put a traffic light on Oriental and Irwin was a decision to preserve life," said Edmond Dweck, spokesperson for the Manhattan Neighborhood Association (MBNA). "It just goes to show that teamwork pays off."
Demand in Manhattan Beach for the new traffic light has been almost universal — especially so after Kingsborough Community College student Youzdjan Bekir lost his life at the intersection six months ago.
"Some times when you work hard and stay on top you get good results," Manhattan Beach Community Group President Ira Zalcman said. "Our traffic committee worked really hard on this."
Advocates expect the light to have an immediate effect on Oriental Boulevard traffic.
"I think it'll slow the traffic down and entering and exiting the [Kingsborough Community College] parking lot will be facilitated," Scavo said. "There is no downside. It can only be positive."
While delighted with the new traffic light at Oriental Boulevard and Irwin Street, both the MBNA and MBCG say they will continue to press the city to upgrade the flashing traffic signal at Oriental Boulevard and Ocean Avenue.
The DOT officially rejected that request last month.
"We're hoping to make Oriental Boulevard a less dangerous boulevard," Zalcman said. "We're going to work really hard now to make it a normal light at Oriental Boulevard and Ocean Avenue, and remove the zebra stripes."
Dweck said, "I am certain lives will be saved by this move, and even more can be done by converting the light on Ocean [Avenue] from flashing to conventional."
With the new traffic light installed, many expect a greater emphasis will be placed on traffic enforcement.
According to Scavo, the 61st Precinct is already "right on board" and has routinely set up radar guns along the boulevard to catch speeders.

Ninis, 16, scores in Panathinaikos win
ATHENS, Jan 27 (Reuters) - Sixteen-year-old Sotiris Ninis scored his first goal for Panathinaikos in a 2-0 home win over Panionios in the Super League on Saturday.
Ninis, who became the club's second youngest player when he made his debut three weeks ago, netted one minute into the second half.
Dimitris Salpigidis had put Panathinaikos in front in the sixth minute.
The victory took Panathinaikos up to second place with 41 points from 19 games, leapfrogging AEK Athens who visit Iraklis on Sunday.
Leaders Olympiakos Pireaus (46 points) host fourth-placed OFI Crete on Sunday.
In Saturday's other game, Larissa came from a goal down to beat Egaleo 2-1 thanks to a penalty in injury time.

Citizens' Initiative Process -- Pinellas Countywide Referendum
By EDIE GROSS
© St. Petersburg Times, published November 1, 2000
All the numbers in this ballot question make it a bit confusing to read, but it's basically just a housecleaning item brought on by the County Commission's expansion from five to seven members.
When residents collect signatures to have a county-related question placed on the ballot, it's known as a citizens' initiative.
When there were only five at-large commission districts, the county charter required that no more than 30 percent of the signatures on the petition drive come from any one district. That way, there would be countywide input.
Changing the commission districts to four single-member ones and three at-large ones requires a change in that formula.
Now, it is mathematically impossible to have no more than 30 percent of a petition drive come from any one at-large district because there are only three of them (30 percent multiplied by three at-large districts is only 90 percent).
So the amendment proposes the following:
No more than 40 percent of the petitioners can come from any one at-large district. And no more than 30 percent of them can come from any one single-member district.
County voters will vote yes or no on this referendum:
Pinellas County charter amendment modifying restrictions on citizens' initiative process
Shall "Charter Initiative" Section be amended to change current restriction that no more than 30% of petitioners shall reside in any one commission district to a restriction that no more than 40% of petitioners shall reside in any one at-large district and no more than 30% of petitioners shall reside in any one single-member district, thus creating consistency with the new three at-large/four single-member district plan?

Over the years the Amphitheater has hosted many big names in music. Some of the top performers to take the stage include Big Time Rush, Carrie Underwood, Steve Miller Band and Willie Nelson, among many others. The amphitheater has a total seating capacity of 5,900, so you'll want to begin your search for tickets well in advance. One of the venue's nicest features is the 1,900 reserved seats directly in front of the stage. If these seats do not suit your needs, you can always purchase one of the 4,000 available lawn seats.
Lawn chairs and blankets are ok. Chairs need to be the short "sand chairs." Unless attended, chairs and blankets do not guarantee your placement on the lawn.

Week 3
Can the Phins shoot down the Jets this Sunday?
Each year the Miami Dolphins play the hated New York Jets twice, once at home and once away. For the past decade we have predominately been a poor team, however whenever we beat the Jets I feel like it has the power to wash away the memories of a bad season. Obviously I want the Dolphins to win a bunch of games and make the playoffs, but if you told me the Dolphins would only win 6 games in each season over the next two years and lose to the Jets all for times, or we would win only 3 games this season and 2 next year and beat the Jets four times, I would hands down take the latter choice. I hate the fucking Jets, and their fans, and I am from New York. When I was 12 and went to the game with my father, where Marino faked the spike and threw a touchdown to win the game, I was dressed from head to toe in my Dolphins gear, and even though I was a young kid, I had to sit there and get abused all game by those asshole fans. I mean give me a break, what other organization in sports has their fans verbally assaulting 12 year children, who are fans of the opposing team.
Now with a pivotal game approaching on Sunday in Miami, I would like to see phins fans pack the stadium and support our boys, so we can shoot down these Jets. Santonio Holmes has already publicly ridiculed our secondary, which is ironic because he is the same guy that threw a hissy fit under the pressure in the last game when the Jets season was still sitting in the balance. If anyone on that team should keep their mouth shut it should clearly be him. In response, Sean Smith, said it plain and simple "we are not worried because we will let our playing do the talking." This statement gave me a new found respect for Sean Smith.
This is going to be a tough hard fought, nail bitter of a game, because these teams know each other so well, and that is what happens when they play each other. After last weeks performance by the Dolphins, I truly believe we can parlay that win into another winning performance against the Jets, however it is not going to be as easy. The Jets definitely have a better defense then the Raiders, so football gambling fans should not expect to see another 35 point performance by our offense. This game should be a real dog fight, with both defenses taking control of the game. The game is going to be won by turnovers and special teams, so only time will tell.
The Dolphins started off as the +3 point underdog for the game and have now seen some heavy action from football gambling fans, and are currently only +1 1/2. I don't usually like to see this heavy of a move in one direction, look at what happened Thursday night when all the football gambling fans bet the Panthers from -1 up to -3. That didn't turn out to well for football gambling fans wagering on the Panthers. Regardless, I would bet with my heart and there is no way I would ever say to take the Jets laying the points in Miami, so obviously my opinion is heavily biased. But I truly believe we have a strong shot at winning this game.
2 comments
Agreed. I hate the freaking Jets and their douche bag fans. Have been a Dolphins fan all my life and have been on the fin roller coaster a long time. Hoping they can pull it out today more than ever. Would be a fantastic victory for all us Fin fans. Any win over the Jets and Pats is Super Bowl caliber for me. GO FINS!!!!!
Looks like they couldn't pull it out today

Privy to History
An outhouse treasure hunt
Finally, host Dave Shuffett joins in a hunt for buried treasure in what would seem to be a most unlikely location: a privy.
Apart from its more traditional uses, the backyard outhouse in days of yore was a place to discard many unwanted items, such as bottles and other household goods. Archaeologists both amateur and professional find such trash piles a valuable source of insights into what daily life was really like in bygone eras. And sometimes the value is monetary: Antique glass, especially intact bottles, is highly sought after by dedicated collectors.
In this segment, Dave travels to his hometown of Greensburg with Peter Guetig and friends from the Kentuckiana Antique Bottle and Outhouse Society to see what treasures they can unearth.

NEW SMYRNA BEACH -- St. Augustine turned two New Smyrna Beach turnovers into scores and used three big plays to jump out early in handing the host Barracudas a 35-7 thumping in the inaugural game at their new $3.5 million-dollar stadium.
The Yellow Jackets, who replaced 12 starters off of last year's state semifinal squad, scored on runs of 56 and 73 yards and used a 29-yard scoring toss with 26 seconds left in the first half to carry a 28-0 lead into the intermission.
"I felt like we improved a lot over last week," St. Augustine coach Joey Wiles said. "We've always really prided ourselves on our defense and special teams. I was pleased with our special teams and especially our punting game."St. Augustine used alternating quarterbacks -- Carlton Smith and Bryon Rizzi -- who both found different ways to get into the end zone, while the visitor's misdirection kept the Barracudas (1-1) off-balance.
Smith completed 2-of-4 passes for 41 yards and threw the scoring pass to Brandon James, while Rizzi beat the Barracudas with his feet. The sophomore rushed eight times for 109 yards and scored on runs of 11, 3 and 73 yards.
"We feel like both of those guys, we're happy with both. They both bring a lot to the table and it's great (situation)," Wiles said. "The competition is very good between the two and they get along well. I'm really happy with our quarterback play."
The Yellow Jackets turned both of the Barracudas' first-half turnovers into points and outgained the host 301-129 on the evening.
NSB senior running back Van Morgan, who rushed for 169 yards a week prior against a smaller, less-physical Taylor program, found little daylight against the stingy Yellow Jackets defense. Morgan rushed for just 37 yards on 16 carries and the Barracudas avoided the shutout when Joseph McCauley hauled in a 8-yard touchdown pass from Chris Connell with 6:59 left to play in the game.
"We let mental mistakes get us out of it early. We just have to do a better job as a coaching staff," NSB coach Stu Holt said.
"We let this thing get way out of hand as far as the preparation for the new stadium and we were excited about that. We let the hype get away. I felt like they just kind of hyped themselves into making some mental mistakes and doing some things that we're not used to doing."
After holding NSB to a three-and-out on its opening series, St. Augustine struck on its second play from scrimmage when Alexius Ferguson broke off the left side for a 56-yard score and put the visitors up 7-0 just 2:24 into thecontest.
The two teams exchanged a pair of defensive stands before the Yellow Jackets took advantage of the Barracudas' first miscue of the night.
NSB's Bobby Mason mishandled the catch on a punt return, which St. Augustine's Brian Hudgins recovered at the NSB 16-yard line. A play later, Rizzi scampered in for an 11-yard score, staking the visitors to a 14-0 margin with 4:40 still left to play in the opening quarter.
The Barracudas then put together a 13-play, 36-yard drive at the end of the quarter before having to punt the ball away.
St. Augustine outgained the hosts 72-44 in the opening quarter and limited the Barracudas to just 22 yards in the second quarter of play.
At the beginning of the second quarter, the Yellow Jackets drove to the NSB 4-yard line before NSB's Brian Moultry picked off a Carlton Smith pass and the Barracudas staved off the threat.
NSB went three-and-out and the visitors responded with a eight-play 49-yard drive that was capped by Rizzi running in a 4-yard score and giving his squad a 21-0 margin with 2:06 left in the first half.
Not content to sit on the ball, NSB came out throwing and St. Augustine's Jacques Rickerson made them pay by picking off a Connell pass. Two plays later, Smith threw a 29-yard scoring strike to Brandon James with just 26 seconds left to play in the half.
St. Augustine outgained the hosts 200-66 in the first half and held a 28-0 lead at the intermission.

Former Bad Boy and Pistons legend Rick Mahorn and the Detroit Pistons Foundation will host the 12th annual Black History Month event and scholarship competition on Thursday, February 9 at the Detroit Institute of Arts (DIA). To kick things off, 40 students from each competing school will take a Unity-themed tour of the DIA galleries starting at 11 a.m., followed by the scholarship competition at 2 p.m.
High school seniors from Detroit and Flint will compete for a combined total of $50,000 in college scholarships funded by Pistons Owner Tom Gores, Palace Sports & Entertainment Vice Chairman Arn Tellem and the Detroit Pistons Foundation.
"Education is vital to the future of our community," said Pistons owner Tom Gores. "One of my goals is to make an impact on young people. There's no better way to make an impact than providing opportunities for life skills development and assistance for a college education."
Each student will create and present an original interpretation of this year's theme — "Unity: What does that look like?" through any form of artistic expression they choose (speech, poem, dance, rap, etc.). The students will be challenged to share their interpretation of what unity looks like to them from both personal experiences as well as past and current world affairs.
"Tom and I believe that the education of our youth is integral to building strong communities," said PS&E Vice Chairman Arn Tellem. "We're excited to be able to provide this scholastic opportunity."
Ten high school seniors from Carman Ainsworth in Flint, Cass Tech High School, Cornerstone Leadership and Business High School, Detroit Collegiate Prep at Northwestern, Detroit International Academy for Young Women, Detroit School of Arts, Jalen Rose Leadership Academy, Loyola High School, Northwestern High School in Flint and University Prep Academy will be competing for the Earl Lloyd Award, a $25,000 college scholarship. The first runner-up will receive a $15,000 scholarship and the second runner up will receive a $10,000 scholarship.
"I am extremely grateful for the contributions of Mr. Gores, Mr. Tellem and the Detroit Pistons Foundation to help continue this wonderful event," said Pistons Legend Rick Mahorn. "In the last 12 years, we've not only been able to make an impact on many students' lives, but had the opportunity to shed light on our country's history and embrace all people of all races and religions as equals."
Since its inception, the event has provided over 55 students $217,250 in college scholarships. The $50,000 in scholarships given this year will be the second highest single-year total in the event's history and will push the total number of college scholarships awarded to $267,250 and total number of scholarship winners to 62.
The event has grown a lot since it's inception in 2005, and will only continue to get bigger and help an increasing number of Michigan high school students further their education.

List of Stations
Five Mile House
Five Mile House, called Mills Station by some, was the first Pony Express remount station on the eastward leg of the express route leaving Sacramento. On the morning of April 4, 1860, rider Sam Hamilton quickly changed ponies here and sped on to the next stop at Fifteen Mile House.
A Historical Marker is located at the foot of Guy West Bridge, California State University, 6000 J Street, Sacramento.
A new granite monument has been place at 7716 Folsom Boulevard, near the corner of Howe Avenue.
Fifteen Mile House
Fifteen Mile House four miles east of Mills Station was owned and operated from 1857 as a stage station by Henry F. W. Deterding and was the site of the second remount station on the route eastward from Sacramento to Missouri. Here on April 4, 1860, Sam Hamilton with the first eastward mail of the the Pony Express changed ponies with Mormon Station as his next stop.
(A Historical Marker is located on White Rock Road, south of Folsom Boulevard, Sacramento.)
Until July 1860, the route then continued along White Rock Road to the site of Mormon Tavern, then on to El Dorado and Diamond Springs.
The Pony Express route then continued on to Placerville via a road which is now State Route 49.
Moore's Station
Eleven miles east of Sportsman's Hall on Ice House Road, Moore's (Riverton) Station was a remount station and horse change station for stage companies.
(A Historical Marker is located just west of the American River Bridge on U.S. 50.)
Webster's Station
Just west of Kyburz, Webster's Sugar Loaf House was a remount station and horse change station for stage companies.
(A Historical Marker is located 1 mile west of Kyburz on U.S. 50.)
Strawberry Valley House was established by Swift and Watson in 1856 and was a popular resort and stop for stages and teams of the Comstock. It became a remount station of the Central Overland Pony Express on April 4, 1860. Here on that date Division Superintendent Bolivar Roberts left with a string of mules to help pony rider Warren Upson through the snow storm at Echo Summit.
Strawberry was not named for the fruit, but rather for a man named Berry who operated the stage stop. He was known to feed horses and other livestock straw instead of hay.
(A Historical Marker is located opposite the house off U.S. 50.)
From Strawberry the route followed the South Fork of the American River, over Echo Summit, down Hawley Grade, into Tahoe Valley. For the first few months of operation the Pony Express route continued over Luther Pass (State Route 89) to Woodfords in upper Carson Valley.
Woodfords Pony Express Station was operated as a remount station at Cary's Barn for five weeks when the service first began in 1860. The first white settlement in Alpine County was established here in 1847 and was known under several names.
(A Historical Marker is located in front of the current store on Old Pony Express Road, just east of the junction of State Routes 88 and 89.)
Yank's Station
Upon completion of the wagon road over Kingsberry Grade, the Pony Express route continued along the south shore of Lake Tahoe stopping at Yank's Station Toll House, near Myers on U.S. 50. This was the easternmost remount station in California. It was also a trading post, hotel and stage stop. The toll house was knocked off its foundation by flood waters and is currently located on blocks adjacent to the Tahoe Paradise Museum.

Written on: 03/08/2013 by GregorSherlock (1 review written)
DVDbooth.com offers a whole lot of classic American TV series that really hard to find nowadays unless you know the schedule of the reruns or watch it youtube but not completely uploaded. Thankfully, there's a company like this that really existed. I've using this site for quite sometimes and placed an order occasionally because I feel secured dealing with them. The website uses the best online security so I have never encountered a single problem using my VISA Credit Card. About their products, my very recent order were the complete DVD Collections of Sherlock Holmes, Ellery Queen and Father Dowling Mysteries as I'm a huge fan of these classic mystery TV series before.
While checking the package I received, I found that I didn't receive the whole 3 DVD sets. I emailed DVDbooth because this is the first time it happened to me so I asked the location of my remaining DVDs and informed them I only received the Sherlock Holmes boxset only. They responded and explained me that they have to split the order in its own package for custom reasons. The remaining package which are Ellery Queen and Father Dowling Mysteries arrived at our local post office the following day and they delivered it to me. Now, my collection is complete, I have no more worries.
DVDs arrived in good shape, date wise shipping and it's good to find out that watching this series once again would lead me to full satisfaction because the quality is absolutely amazing, from the loud audio to well-defined picture quality. Exactly as described from the description on their website. Their DVDS are sold in a very competitive price but come with excellent quality. Yes! I would recommend this online DVD shop to anybody.

Construction firms lag in Internet use
A report released Sept. 13 by the Small Business Research Board (SBRB) shows small construction and contracting firms use the Internet for business purposes less than any other industry surveyed.
The study, which was co-sponsored by Business Today magazine, shows 57 percent of participating small construction and contracting firms do not have Web sites. Additionally, the poll indicates less than 14 percent of firms surveyed believe sales resulting from Web-based commerce will increase during the next 12 to 14 months.
In contrast, 67 percent of participating manufacturers have Web sites, which is the highest percentage of any industry surveyed.

A local developer's plan to build homes, offices, shops, hotel rooms and a new Chargers stadium at the team's current site in Mission Valley has met resistance from the people whose support it most needs: the team and the mayor.
Two weeks after developer Perry Dealy privately showed Mayor Jerry Sanders blueprints for redeveloping San Diego's Qualcomm Stadium site, Sanders' office is raising concerns and other politicians sound skeptical or unenthused.
Sanders declined to comment yesterday, but his spokesman Darren Pudgil said Dealy's idea "appears to be very dense for the site" and added, "If this doesn't work for the Chargers, it just doesn't work."
If that left the door open a small crack, Chargers spokesman Mark Fabiani quickly closed it. Fabiani dismissed the proposal as outlandish in one of several online comments he acknowledged posting at the end of a San Diego Union-Tribune sports column by Tim Sullivan outlining Dealy's plan.
In an interview, Fabiani elaborated, calling the proposal "a complete waste of time" because of its density and the upfront costs and delayed revenues of staggered construction. He also cited the legal challenge of designating the booming area blighted to turn it into a redevelopment zone, as Dealy envisions, to direct tax revenue toward a stadium and infrastructure.
Councilwoman Donna Frye, whose district includes Mission Valley, said that last concern is reason enough to question a proposal she has not even seen.
"If the whole proposal turns around the area being declared a redevelopment area, you have to comply with state law," she said. "Mission Valley's not blighted."
Dealy did not return repeated calls yesterday.
While Dealy and his development team have not met with Frye, they arranged meetings with Sanders and Councilman Carl DeMaio, whose presentation came Friday.
The plans being pitched by Dealy, a former executive for developer Doug Manchester, call for about 5,000 residential units, 3.5 million square feet of office space, 500,000 square feet of specialty retail, 1,000 hotel rooms, 500 units of San Diego State student housing, 100,000 square feet of SDSU classroom and office space and 30 acres of parkland. They are grander in scale than plans the Chargers shelved in 2006 upon deciding they didn't pencil out.
DeMaio, one of the City Council's budget hawks, reserved comment on the new proposal. But he reiterated his general position that any proposal must not be subsidized by taxpayers. He added that the city seems ill-equipped to receive any Chargers proposal now because it has not focused on the issue for so long.
"I think he's starting the conversation again," DeMaio said of Dealy. "And I'm glad to see that, but the problem is, where do you put those ideas?"
Banker Tom Wornham, incoming chairman of the San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce, was enthusiastic about Dealy's plans, calling them "chapter 12 of the same book that we've all been trying to write over the last decade."
"Just the fact that we're talking about using city of San Diego assets again is a real positive," he said.
Chula Vista Councilman John McCann, a booster of moving the Chargers south, said he remains optimistic the team will relocate to his city's bayfront.
"We've always known that the Mission Valley site would bubble up again, but our main focus is to try to put together a good project in Chula Vista," McCann said. "We're still focused on what we can do."

About Me
I believe art should be fun. I love photography and graphic design because not only does it allow me to express myself in powerful ways, I get into it. My projects often leave smiles on my face and the faces of my models, no matter the subject.
Who am I? My name is Renee and I'm a fledgling photographer and talented graphic designer, working her way into the competitive world of art. My reason for joining Model Mayhem is to promote myself and gain more experience. I'm pretty versitle and easy to work with. I shoot a wide variety of subjects and am very comfortable both behind and in front of the camera. I have no problem shooting nudes and modeling nude.
My favorite subjects to shoot are historical, cosplay, fantasy, hair/makeup, fashion, and editorial. I often do my own makeup for both models and self portraits. I work a lot with natural lighting and I love shooting outdoors in Nature. I feel some of my best work has been done that way.
I am skilled in Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator. Perhaps my favorite part of photography is taking simple images and combining them into a work of art. I'm quite experienced with photomanipulation and advertisment design and take great care and pride in all of the work that I do.
While I have fun doing everything, I am always professional and courteous. Treating my clients and models with respect is more important than anything to me. If you ever have questions, please don't hesitate to ask. I can be contacted via the following:

Man accused of fatally stabbing victim, using his credit card, held in D.C. jail
After fatally stabbing a Northwest D.C. man 30 times and leaving his naked body slung over his bed and drenched in bleach, the assailant used the victim's credit card to buy a soda at a nearby CVS and a ticket for a movie at a Silver Spring theater, a District homicide detective testified Friday.
D.C. homicide Detective Hosam Nasr told a D.C. Superior Court judge that Marcus McLean, 24, who is charged with first-degree murder while armed in the Aug. 8 slaying of Delando King, killed King inside his one-bedroom apartment in the 1100 block of 10th Street NW about 3 a.m.
Nasr said the men met at Omega DC, a gay nightclub in Dupont Circle, before returning to King's apartment. About 50 minutes later, surveillance cameras, which had recorded the two men entering the apartment building, showed McLean leaving alone, carrying a lime-green grocery bag from King's apartment.
Nasr said a large butcher knife was missing from a butcher's block in King's kitchen, and the bedroom looked as though it had been "ransacked," with dresser drawers left open and items scattered about.
Later that afternoon, surveillance footage captured McLean at a nearby CVS using King's check card and, later, purchasing a ticket to watch the movie "Salt" at the Regal Majestic theater in Silver Spring, again using King's card. Another video from the City Place Mall in Silver Spring shows McLean purchasing items from a clothing store. McLean was identified by a mall employee, who said McLean frequented the mall.
Nasr said that during questioning, McLean initially denied knowing King. Then, when shown the surveillance video from King's apartment building, McLean told police that King had forced him into prostitution with clients in foreign countries for as much as $4,000.
McLean told police that when the two men returned to King's apartment, they got into a fight when King tried to engage McLean in sex, and that King had initially grabbed the knife and McLean tried to defend himself before "blacking out." The detective testified that McLean said he tried to clean his fingerprints from the apartment and poured bleach on the victim because he saw such a technique on the TV show "CSI."
King's laptop, wallet and iPod were missing from his apartment. Police found the iPod later in McLean's bedroom at his home in the 200 block of Cromwell Terrace NE.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Jennifer Kerkhoff challenged the self-defense account that McLean had conveyed to Nasr, noting that he was 6-feet-8 inches and 230 pounds, and King about 5-feet-5 and 140 pounds.
McLean's attorney, Kia Sears of the District's Public Defender Service, challenged the accuracy of the statements Nasr said her client had given at the time of his arrest. Still, D.C. Superior Court Judge Gerald I. Fisher said Kerkhoff had presented enough evidence to persuade him to keep McLean in the D.C. jail until trial.
McLean had been before a D.C. judge before. In 2008, he was placed on 18 months' probation after being convicted of misdemeanor sexual abuse of a child in connection with "inappropriate touching" of a 14-year-old boy, according to court documents.

Asked by:
How to use Custom Culture in SSRS Reports?
Hi All,
We are using VS and SSRS 2008. As our requirements we are creating Custom Culture by using 'CultureAndRegionInfoBuilder'. We have around some 15 Custom Cultures which are named with 'EN-GB-WF', 'EN-GB-SLA' and so on and these cultures are using en-GB as base culture. When we set these cultures to CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture and CurrentThread.CurrentCulture our web site works fine, but the SSRS reports are not working and we are getting error as:
Culture ID 4096 (0x1000) is not a supported culture.
Parameter name: culture
But the same reports works fine when the 'en-GB' culture is set to the Current Thread.
When I searched for this on net, I got know that SSRS will use only the ISO listed Cultures but not the other custom cultures. Because SSRS will use the culture based on LCID rather than Culture Name. Our cultures are registered with 4096 LCID.
I tried some more search but till now no luck. Could some please let me know how we can resolve the this error by using Custom Culture setting to the SSRS reports?
Thanks in advance!
Sree Harshavardhana
All replies
It seems that you display SSRS report with Report Viewer control in web application? If so, I'am afraid it not support custom cultures.
Hi Summer,
Thanks for reply. I had read this article earlier, but even it did not help me out to solve the issue.
If you look at the blog, the first paragraph it self has mentioned that Custom Cultures are not supported by Asp.Net Report Viewer. :( Right now we are using VS 2008 but as per the blog, custom culture is supported only in 2010 onwards. Since SSRS report is still using LCID value to identify the Culture it's breaking in my case.
So, I would like to know is there any alternate way to achieve Custom Culture for SSRS 2008.
Sree Harshavardhana
Basically, we using en-GB as the Base language for all the custom culture and at any point of time to change the text in Local Resource file for particular culture. We are not doing any Language translation at the moment. I feel even we have other custom culture say 'EN-US-SLA' also might have same issue. Since when we register this culture it will have different LCID and report might not work.

Engadget is announcing today that Carl Zeiss is joining the Micro four thirds revolution.
Actually, it's Olympus who made the announcement ...
Godfrey - http://www.flickr.com/photos/gdgphoto
It's nice, of course, to have such backup as Zeiss, but if they talk about Zeiss HD lenses only, i.e. DigiPrime and DigiZoom, then joy will visit only a very tiny fraction of people on the Earth. Just googled around and found prices. OMG... starting with 12K USD and up to the Mars.
Nice! I definitely wouldn't mind supporting the 4:3 standard. However, I really would like to see the m4:3 format take off as a professional platform. The high end compact lenses and camera bodies possible would be a worthy modern replacement for both the Leica M and Olympus OM systems.

It doesn't look like anything has happened with this. The Zeiss web site still does not talk about having micro fourth thirds lens mounts.

I saw today that Carl Zeiss has a 15mm and 135mm lens now available in the MFT mount. Both are only $5700. Kinda rich for me so I guess I'm going to pass on these.
I sure hope they come out with something more affordable that is.

They will almost certainly be MF only and very much aimed at moving pictures professionals. M43 seems to be carving itself out a nice niche here and is sure to be a go to system in any situation where small/light is required or space is tight.
Traveling with the G11 was awesome. If I could afford a m4/3 for traveling I'd totally be all up on that ish

Military river parade set for May 19
Published 1:09 pm, Tuesday, May 8, 2012
San Antonio will salute and celebrate all branches of the Armed Forces by hosting the iaugural "Here's to Our Heroes" military river parade May 19, National Armed Forces Day.
In honor of the men and women of the Armed Forces and local military installations employing 90,000, the Paseo del Rio Association and the city of San Antonio are introducing the parade, the nation's first event of its kind taking place along the San Antonio River Walk.
"What better way to celebrate Armed Forces Day than to come together as a local and national community at the heart of one of America's most popular attractions, the San Antonio River Walk, for a historic military river parade?" says San Antonio Mayor Julián Castro. "Our community's respect, pride and love of country, combined with the tremendous presence of our military, embodies why San Antonio is Military City USA."
The "Here's to Our Heroes" military river parade will start with an opening ceremony at the Arneson River Theater. The parade will feature 25 decorated floats themed according to their participants, and will include all branches of the military, veterans and military support groups.

As a special tribute to the Armed Forces, the city of San Antonio will dye the river blue for the parade. The River Walk parade route will also be decorated with yellow ribbons, purchased by the community in honor or memory of those who serve, or have served our country.
Lt. Gen. William B. Caldwell IV, senior commander of Joint Base San Antonio-Fort Sam Houston and the commander of U.S. Army North (Fifth Army) will serve as the grand marshal for the parade. The National Anthem will be performed by Angie Johnson ("The Voice"), accompanied by Tops In Blue, an all-active duty U.S. Air Force special unit comprised of talented performers selected for their entertainment abilities.
Adding to the significance of the event, the River Walk which runs through the heart of the city was designed by Robert H. H. Hugman – a former employee at Randolph Air Force Base in San Antonio.
The celebration will end with a free concert hosted by Operation Homefront, a national non-profit organization dedicated to providing emergency financial assistance to military members and their families. The concert will take place in Hemisfair Park in front of the Institute of Texan Cultures.
The "Here's to Our Heroes" military river parade is free to view from the patios and balconies of River Walk businesses or from the banks of the San Antonio River Walk. Reserved seating is available for purchase at the Arneson River Theatre ($15), along the extension of the River Walk (near the Chamber of Commerce Building, $10) and the Rivercenter Mall lagoon ($10).
