Never heard of any tv with a 70 Hz refresh rate, it will be 60, or 120, some claim to do 240 but I`ve never owned one.
Read your tv specifications, it will tell you the refresh rate.
Most times a tv will only show up as a pnp monitor, totally normal. It`s more important to make sure your video drivers are up to date. Check device manager for any issues there.

70 is a weird number, it's probably a mistake, 60Hz has been a standard for a long time.
Prices on 120Hz have fallen, I got a 39" 120Hz this year for about $400, I was happily shocked.
I haven't noticed any difference in the 6 months I have had it though.

resolution and 60Hz vs 70Hz (problem in Windows 7)
Here is a newly installed Windows 7. The problem is: It is in 800x600 and 60Hz When I set it to 1024x768 windows 7 changes it to 70Hz. (Note that this monitor has no support for 1024x768 at 70Hz.) Why the hell it is changing to 70 Hz? I'm not touching the 60Hz-70Hz settings.

Automotive Sensors Market
According to a Strategy Analytics study, the market for automotive sensors will reach $11.2 billion in 2007, a year-on year growth of 10.7%. Planned vehicle safety, performance, and feature enhancements are expected to drive demand for automotive sensor shipments to over 3.4 billion units worth $17.1 billion.
Fixed WiMAX
The majority of 2005 and 2006 WiMAX chipsets were Fixed WiMAX (802.16d)-compliant, with a very small percentage in 2006 representing chipsets used in early WiBro (mobile WiMAX-based) devices. However, according to In-Stat, Fixed WiMAX IC vendors have re-directed their energies towards Mobile WiMAX. Fujitsu, Intel, Sequans, and Wavesat have shifted their focus from Fixed WiMAX baseband focus to Mobile WiMAX. Sierra Monolithics and Analog Devices have also announced Mobile WiMAX solutions.

A Florida prosecutor "put politics aside" in deciding not to prosecute a battery charge filed against Corey Lewandowski, a top attorney said Wednesday.
News accounts, led by the website Politico, Wednesday said Palm Beach County State Attorney David Aronberg had planned a Thursday afternoon press conference to announced that a charge of misdemeanor battery would be dropped against Lewandowski, Donald Trump's campaign manager.
"This is not a surprise at all. This was a case that they were not going to prove beyond a reasonable doubt, and they recognized that. They made the right move," said Michelle Suskauer, past president of the Palm Beach Bar Association. "They put politics completely aside, looked at the facts of the case, looked at the video and probably spoke to witnesses, and they knew this was not a winner. This was a loser case."

The charge was filed by Jupiter, Fla., police after a March incident in which Lewandowski grabbed the arm of Michelle Fields, then a reporter for Breitbart.
Lewandowski at first denied touching her, but video evidence showed otherwise.

"This was never a case that the State Attorney's Office was going to want to prosecute," Suskauer said. "The police could have, and should have, sent the case over to the State Attorney's Office for a full review before they gave him a notice to appear … it wouldn't have gone this far."
"Obviously, it is good news …. it would have been a circus if this had gone to trial. It would have been a real distraction," Matt Mackowiak, a Republican consultant who is not part of the Trump team, told the Boston Herald.

Fields tweeted Wednesday that she knew nothing about the charge being dropped. She also tweeted that she had agreed to a deal where she would drop the charges in exchange for an apology, but said that deal had not moved forward. The former reporter also complained that authorities had leaked the news to the media.
Fields resigned from Breitbart shortly after the incident, claiming the news outlet was more concerned about maintaining its relationship with Trump's campaign than supporting her.

I long to sit quietly at His feet and listen to His heart.
But most days, I am running around like Raggedy Ann with a million things to do.
I miss Him when I wake up late and rush off to work in the morning.
I forget He is close by as I work through my lunch hour to finish one more project.
I fail to notice Him as I unload the dishwasher after dinner for the hundredth time.
I ignore Him as I plop down exhausted on the couch in a comatose state and reach for the remote.
The truth is that I am scared of the quiet. I am frightened of what He might say. I fear slowing down.
I live in lack because I refuse to surrender the reigns to the One who holds the keys to abundant life and peace.
Yet, He speaks so tenderly to me.
My child, draw close to My heart and find rest.
I'm tired of running ragged. I want to be still and know that He is God.
I want to press in to know Him and spend my time investing in moments that have eternal significance.
I've forgotten how to "just breathe" and be.
Are you tried of the endless, crazy hamster wheel of life? We've raced along on an adrenaline-infused rhythm for so long that taking a break seems boring, barren, and baseless.
The enemy loves to get us busy.
When was the last time you "just breathed," friend?
Let's take 31 days to slow down and remember that inhaling is a gift of His mercy.
Day One: Catch Your Breath
Photo Credit
I was a woman on a mission. My body lunged forward through the packed hallway pushing passed the horde in a blur of speed.
Jumping left and right, I maneuvered through the maze of people with ease. I knew the way well.
Suddenly, my feet hit a hurdle, and as my legs flailed in midair, my body plummeted down like a torpedo.
I never saw it coming.
I lay on the ground grasping my chest. I could not catch my breath.
Breathe. Breathe. Just breathe.
I'll never forget that day.
Have you ever had your life thrashed about unexpectedly? Maybe you are struggling to inhale right now.
Friend, I promise you that air will once again fill up your lungs with His praise.
Take time to catch your breath. You can't get up and run until your heart stops racing.
God will meet you there on the ground and free you from fear. He hears your every moan and groan.
In time, Yahweh God will help you catch your breath.
Breathing Exercise:
Read Psalm 34. Note every way that God is attentive to the weary and brokenhearted. Breathe the words of the psalmist as your personal prayer to the God who is the air that you live and breathe.
I am sharing "Catch Your Breath" and joining like-minded sisters at #write31days, Spiritual Sundays, and Faith-Filled Friday.

Bartb made an interessting suggestion a few days ago on its blog on dropzone. Current technology as most of us carry around to do our job and to support our online life, is missing one feature….
Bart is making the point that it would be one of those major improvements in the touchpad so "(…) it can be used with a stylus, in absolute mode, turning it into a small drawing pad"
Interesting point of view. A few weeks ago I had made the decision to purchase a new laptop PC. After being a Tablet PC user since the launch of Windows XP Tablet Edition, I was used to having drawing capabilities with me at all times. However, that came at a cost. Not only in Euros (that too!!) but as well in speed, screen resolution and the choice between portability and affordability.
So yes, please dear hardware-constructors, hear this request for change so we can have a basic drawing pad in the touchpad. I am willing to pay a little more for the feature anyway!

Alongside the classic of the ART construction series, the modern HUF timber-frame architecture now also includes the MODUM HUF house. On the one hand, a genuine timber-frame house in uncompromising HUF quality, on the other, a living space for those who consider stripping things down to the essential to be a noble way of life. Please enjoy the following impressions of series 8, a real treat for the eyes.
HUF house MODUM 8:10 – Impressions
Magical moments in the HUF house
In the words of Goethe: "Life is too short to drink bad wine". Accordingly, deciding to become a home-owner always means committing to a particular living space for some time, which will have a major impact on your quality of life.
But even if your standards are high, the construction budget should leave you with enough for all the other wonderful and magical things in life. With a HUF house from the MODUM series, planned and built individually, you are treating yourself to the open home living culture that is typical of every HUF house, just like the owners have done with this dream house.
Detailed information about this house is given in project sample 1!
HUF house MODUM 8:10 – Impressions
Ingenuous divisions with optimum benefits
Behind the transparent entrance portal, which reveals some first impressions of the inside to visitors, there is 180 m² of exceptional living space customised to perfectly suit the family's day-to-day needs.
The house's open yet cosy character can already be felt in the spacious entrance area with coat rack and guest bathroom. The colour-coordinated artworks, combined with the floor-depth glazing, provide fluid transitions from room to room.
Learn all about the modum 8:10 HUF house in project sample 2!
Planning and building with HUF HAUS means making home living dreams come true in harmony with nature! The examples shown here are intended to give you some inspiration for your own dream house.
Incidentally, all the HUF timber-frame houses built from scratch according to plan specifications that are shown in the latest HUF HAUS compendium meet the standards of the KfW classification efficiency house 55, even with their basic fittings – at no additional charge. If desired, each new HUF house can also be built as a plus-energy house.

About the Book
"Speedy, exhilarating, and smooth. Nobody does it better."
—Washington Post
"The man knows how to grab you—and Pronto is one of the best grabbers in years."
—Entertainment Weekly
Fans of U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens of the hit TV series Justified are in for a major treat. The unstoppable manhunter with the very itchy trigger finger stars in Pronto, a crime fiction gem from the one and only Elmore Leonard, "the greatest crime writer of our time, perhaps ever" (New York Times Book Review). The Grand Master justifies the overwhelming acclaim he has received over the course of his remarkable career with an electrifying thriller that sends the indomitable Raylan racing to Italy on the trail of a fugitive bookie who's hiding from the vengeful Miami mob. The legendary Leonard, whom the Seattle Times lauds as the "King Daddy of crime writers," proves that all comparisons to American noir icons John D. MacDonald, Dashiell Hammett, and James M. Cain are well deserved with this tale of very dirty doings and extremely dangerous men coming together in the birthplace of Puccini, Garibaldi, and La Cosa Nostra.

While searching for Personal Progress ideas, I came across THIS idea and thought it was excellent. We decided it would be great for our YW, so I got to work planning.
Instead of using this activity for mutual we used it for a Personal Progress Sleep-over.
I used Kinzie's great idea and added a few of my own. Here's what to do to have your own Personal Progress-O-Thon:
Before the activity:
Print out all the printables that I have provided below.
I have included:
– 8 Value Jar Labels {shown above}
– Personal Progress-O-thon Checklists
– Other lists, definitions, etc. needed for experiences
Look at each of the value experiences that can be passed off or started and decide what extra materials you will need for each experience.
Example:2 Conference talks on Faith, etc.
For our marathon I set up 8 stations for each value.
At each station there was a Value Jar. Each jar was filled with candy in that particular Value color.
On each of the jars was a 'Value Card' that had what experiences the girls could pass off.
So, find some jars and candy and put your Value Jars together.
To Play:
Tell the girls that tonight they are going to participate in a Personal Progress-O-Thon!
Show the girls the 8 stations around the room and explain that all around the room are 'Value Jars' representing one of the 8 values. On the front of each of the jars is a card that lists 2-4 experiences that can be finished or started tonight. Let the girls know how much time they have for the activity, and then tell them that the goal is to finish as many experiences as possible in that amount of time. Each time a girl completes an experience have them check it off their checklist, and then open up the jar and enjoy a piece of candy. Then move on to another experience!
At the end the girls counted up how many experiences they finished. I then awarded the winner with a bag of skittles and told her 'Thanks for tasting the Rainbow of Personal Progress.'
Kinzie has some great printables for a treat for all the girls at the end of the activity, so be sure to stop by and check it out, Visit HERE.
Our girls really enjoyed this activity, and I was surprised how many experiences they passed off!
Even though we did this at an overnight party, you could still use this idea as a great mutual activity.
If you want to have your own Personal Progress-O-thon, then
be sure to print out my printables below.
Thanks for stopping by! Have a great day.

Water, Water Everywhere… Part 1
Yesterday I mentioned that the talk I gave at the conference in Dallas was about bottled vs. tap water. It was truly one of the most interesting presentations I've worked on in a while, and a topic many people seem to be both interested in and confused about. So, I thought I'd share the basics from my presentation (but it's going to take a few days – it's a meaty topic). Ok, here it goes:
Without a doubt water is the most important nutrient. We can survive 6 weeks without food but only 7 days without water. About 60-70% of the human body is made of water, and it's required for every single bodily process. But we actually lose water from our bodies every minute of every day, through perspiration and exhaling (you can "see your breath" when the water released from your lungs interacts with the cold air, and if you hold a mirror up to your mouth and breathe out, you'll see the moisture). We also lose water through urine and feces. So, bottom line: replacing what we lose is critical for staying well-hydrated and keeping our bodies working properly.
So, how are we doing in that department? Well, there are two ways to look at this. The first is actual water intake (bottled or tap). The other is total fluid consumption, including all beverages, as well as the fluid in food. Believe it or not, roughly 20% of our water needs are generally filled by food (even more if you're a fresh produce lover). Check out the fluid content of the foods below:
Water content by percent:
Lettuce 96%
Watermelon 95%
Tomatoes 93%
Spinach 92%
Broccoli 92%
Carrots 90%
Onions 89%
Oranges 88%
Plums 87%
Apples 85%
Pineapple 85%
Pasta 72%
Grilled chicken 71%
Baked fish 68%
Bread 36%
According to the Institute of Medicine, women 19 and over need 2.7 liters of fluid per day (to put this in perspective, think of a 2 liter bottle of cola) and men need 3.7. Studies tell us that most Americans drink about 2 liters per day of beverages total, but less than a quarter comes from water. Technically, non-water drinks like soda, lemonade, and iced tea do "count" toward your water needs (yup, even if they contain caffeine, as long as you're consistent – more on this to come in a future post). Trouble is, like I mentioned in yesterday's post, those drinks also provide empty calories (that is, calories that aren't bundled with valuable nutrients).
In any case, when it comes to plain water, most people drink a combo of tap and bottled (although nearly 40% filter their tap water) and about 20% of consumers say they use bottled exclusively. Bottled water sales are estimated to be about $100 billion annually in the U.S. and increasing about 10 percent per year.
Surveys show that bottled water drinkers believed bottled is safer, tastes better, and is more convenient than tap. But is that really true?
Come back tomorrow to learn more about how both bottled and tap water are regulated, including the answers to the following questions:
-Which type is tested more frequently?
-Which type includes a segment that's exempt from regulation?
-Which is better for the environment?
-How can I find out what's in my tap water?
-What's the difference between spring water, purified water, and mineral water?
-Do taste tests back the notion that bottled water tastes better?
P.S. Here are a few more interesting water-related facts:
-71% of Earth's surface is covered by water, it's been said that the next world war will be over water
-It's been predicted by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization that in the next 20 years, the quantity of water available to everyone will decrease by 30-40%
-In the U.S. we use about 159 gallons of water per person per day
-Half the world's population lives on 25 gallons of water per day

i've been dying to go to ten tables for a long time, but it's never quite worked out. we're in cambridge, so it's a bit of a hike to get to jp, especially when we have so many nearby faves. so we were stoked to find out that they were opening their cambridge location, and went to check it out on saturday. the food was excellent but the environment was not. i'm sure weekday dining would mitigate some of our complaints, but unfortunately the mr. works one of those delightful 7am-8pm kind of jobs, so we're not much for weeknight restaurant going. here's how our night went.
when we got there there were about 10 people hanging out in the front area, some having drinks, some just standing around right in front of the coatrack and front door. we stood by the host stand for a good 5 minutes, at least, before we were even acknowledged by the manager. i know the place is small, but he was very harried and while i sympathize having worked front of house, all we wanted was to be acknowledged with eye contact when we first walked in, and reassured that someone had noticed us. we checked in finally (At least 15 min after our res) and loitered around another 15 minutes or so until we were seated in the back room. the place had the feeling of being an "it" place to dine, if that makes sense, and was nothing like the laid back, good food, homey atmosphere that i'd expected hearing the jp location described. we're not fancy restaurant people, preferring smaller cambridge places to restaurants like no9 park, for example, so i was a little surprised by the vibe. it was warm and *extremely* loud (like conversation was a chore) in there, but we were still looking forward to our meal.
i had: winter greens salad (incredible) and roast chicken with a cabbage-white bean-smoked bacon preparation that reminded me of a cassoulet. the chicken was plentiful and delicious, with a perfectly crispy, salty skin and a nice ratio of light to dark meat. he had: steak tartare (yay for pickled honshimenji) and boudin blanc, which was out of this world. they both made excellent leftovers. i drank a glass of rioja and a glass of a cotes du rhone syrah blend (both were really nice); he had the lillet-tarragon cocktail and a merlot blend (i think bordeaux), they were mediocre. our desserts were divine, and i was happy to have taken advice from previous posts and order the chocolate dessert with thai basil ice cream, and the sticky toffee pudding. we have trouble with desserts at many restaurants (they never seem to match up to a great meal) but this did not disappoint.
so i guess, the food was very great, and the place was deservedly packed. but the level of crowdedness, extreme noise, and "scene"iness, like everyone was dressed up for destination dining and the place had a real "aren't we cool and french" feel, turned us off. a comparison is oleana, which we love and is often crowded but we never feel ignored or weird, like we've walked into a bunch of special occasion dinners wearing our daytime clothes. and once we sit down there it feels intimate, but we didn't get that feel at ten tables. i want to try the jp location now and see how it feels, because i was disappointed not to have found a new fave on sat.
if you have a different impression of the restaurant, or insight, i'd love to hear it!

Thanks Morning! I hope you have a good school year xxDelete
A couple of my favorites from this season are Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertalli and The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller. Kudos on your reading!ReplyDelete
Ellie | On the Other Side of RealityReplies
Thanks Ellie! Those books sound cool. xxDelete
You are so good at reading it's ridiculous! This summer I read three and a half books. Three. And a half. And two of them I read in a single day, so it's not like they were challenging reads! :P I did read some comics too though, so that adds a little... ;)ReplyDeleteReplies
Muchas gracias mi amiga. lol The comics totally count though. Did you read any good ones? BTW have you read any of Ed Brubaker's run on the Captain America comic? (Most importantly The Winter Soldier?)Delete
I've been reading Deadpool comics only so far, mainly the Daniel Way collections, and I'm no expert on comics, but I'm loving them all! :D I've been thinking about branching out, especially into Captain America, but it's a little overwhelming. So I take it you'd recommend those?Delete

The staff are so friendly, approachable, to kids and parents and could see their passion toward teaching in every one of them, making us want to go back over there. I have to say that out of the 3 mathnasiums we visited and the other 3 were called and spoken to, the Cinnaminson branch was exceptionally the best caring, loving, and passionate branch that I would ever want to go to. Thank You to Sara who made this journey the smoothest of all!!!!

Nintendo is discontinuing the 3DS XL in Japan
- Written by Petrus-Iulian "Devon" Fatu
- Published in Console news
Nintendo is to cease the production and selling on its Nintendo 3DS XL in Japan, the corporation has announced, as part of its plan to focus the market on its next handheld.
The 3DS XL, launched in Japan on July 28 2012, has been popular in the country - out of all 3DS systems sold in Japan, almost half of them - about 7 million units - were 3DS XL, despite being made available to the market later than the original version.
Writing on its official website, Nintendo has revealed that it will cease production on the older XL model, making the updated hardware becoming the flagship version. The hardware page on Nintendo's official Japanese website added the message "ending production soon" for all seven colors of the original 3DS XL.
A new 3DS XL model, announced in August is to be made available in Europe and North America in 2015, and features a series of improvements over the current available models, including a more powerful processor, a second circle-pad, and ZL & ZR buttons.
At the time of writing, the release date for the new 3DS XL for Europe, UK and US has not yet been revealed, though it's on track for a 2015 launch.

Jakarta, Dec. 31 (Reuters): Cities across the world tightened security for New Years Eve celebrations, with the Indonesian capital deploying 200,000 police and Sydney taking Olympics-style precautions for a party which attracted hundreds of thousands.
With memories still fresh of the Bali bombings in October which killed more than 180 people, two-thirds of Jakartas police force were on the streets of the capital of the worlds biggest Muslim nation, guarding shopping and entertainment centres, mosques, churches and public facilities.
In Sydney, which has already rung in the new year, police imposed security not seen since the 2000 Sydney Olympics, banning cars from the central business district this evening and blocking streets for a party which culminated in a massive fireworks display over the harbour.
Sydney lord mayor Frank Sartor described the celebration, which attracted a smaller crowd than expected at around 700,000, as a great tribal picnic for Sydney. After a year of drought, bushfires, the Bali bombings which killed up to 90 Australians and talk of terrorism, Sartor praised Sydneysiders for having the courage to party openly.
They didnt listen to the doomsayers, we didnt listen to the malecontents, we went on and celebrated and had a great party, Sartor said at his A-list party at the Opera House. Australias heightened security follows the September 11, 2001, attacks on the US which killed almost 3,000 people and the Bali bombings.
Australia has been one of the worlds most vocal supporters of the US war on terror, sparking criticism that Prime Minister John Howards government may be making Australia, geographically isolated from such violence, a target.
In Jakarta, key roads were closed for a street party, but despite widespread tight security thousands of Indonesians are expected to turn out to see in 2003. Even though their fabled tourist industry was devastated by the October blasts, Balinese put on a brave face at New Years Eve festivities on the famous Kuta Beach, just blocks away from where two bombs ripped through a number of nightclubs.
In Bangkok, as many as 5,000 police officers hit the streets as half a million Thais were expected to leave home for the New Year celebration around Thailand's capital.
On the other side of the world, an extra 1,000 policemen will be deployed in Paris to oversee celebrations, bringing the total to around 5,500. Cars will be banned around the capitals famed Champs Elysees, where up to 300,000 revellers are expected. Other areas under special surveillance include the Eiffel Tower, railway stations, airports and shopping districts.
Security fears have been heightened by a spate of arrests of suspected Islamist militants in and around Paris this month.
Police said yesterday they had arrested a baggage handler at Paris main international airport who had guns and explosives hidden in his car.

To address the problem, a device called air dehumidifier is needed to be installed in any enclosed location. An air dehumidifier is a household apparatus which is reduces the amount of humidity within the vicinity of your home.
The use of an air dehumidifier does not limit itself for home use. In most hospitals and health care facilities, air dehumidifiers are important because it tends to decrease the bacteria levels to a negligible value. Therefore, indoor air quality is increased and good health is promoted.
One of the most commonly used air dehumidifiers in hospitals are the so-called desiccant air dehumidifiers. This particular air dehumidifying device best controls humidity at low temperature. Unlike other conventional cooling systems, the moisture removal of a desiccant air dehumidifier is more effective.
The Setting Trends of Home Dehumidifiers
It has been scientifically studied and proven that dehumidifiers are important gadgets with purpose of decreasing the moisture levels in your home.

Meanwhile, buyers of a 50 pint dehumidifier must bear in mind that these equipments can be used to eliminate moisture in an indoor setting. Specifically, pint dehumidifiers are meant to solve the moisture problems of a window pane, condensation concerns caused by a relatively high level of humidity.
Be Pollution Free, With Less Energy Consumption – An Air To Air Exchanger Knows Best
A heat exchanger is an instrument used to transfer heat from one medium to another. The medium and the heat exchanger are separated by a solid wall to avoid them from mixing. In these hard times, people are trying to find effective ways on how to cut down on their electric consumptions, especially in their heating and cooling, and dehumidification systems at home. Therefore, they use an air to air heat exchanger.
An air to air heat exchanger looks like a small cabinet that has a core with two fans and duct works. An air to air heat exchanger allows fresh air to enter your home from the outside and with an air filter, it can be able to provide purified air.
- During a cold weather, this device preheats the incoming heat when it transfers the heat from a stagnant or stale air being passed to the outside.
- On the contrary, when summer begins it pre-cools the incoming stream of fresh air.
If this is the process, is it really worth it to install an air to air heat exchanger?
Yes, an air to air heat exchanger really helps a lot because it effectively decreases the amount of electricity which flows from your HVAC (Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) into the dehumidifier, which is responsible in dehumidifying the air to be transferred into your home. This tremendous decrease in your electric consumption is based on the degree or the amount of warm air you recycle.
Use Of Air To Air Heat Exchanger
Electric efficiency is the main reason why some big factories and establishments have small units of air to air exchangers. An example of an air to air heat exchanger is the HE 150 air to air heat exchanger. Among its excellent features are the following:
- It prevents you from being exposed to harmful fumes and gases like an air purifier.
- Helps your heating and cooling system to achieve maximum efficiency.
In buying an air to air heat exchanger you must take note of the size of the air to air heat exchanger that you need. Determine this by determining the number of your household member and the room size of your home.

A Brief Look on the Hygrometer
Hygrometer, an instrument used to measure the moisture rate of dehumidification in the air. In the history of the development of hygrometers, a Swiss physicist and geologist by the name of Horace Benedict de Saussure invented the first-ever hygrometer using a human hair.
There are some hygrometers that measure the change in electrical resistance using a piece of Lithium Chloride, and other semiconductor instruments that affect relative humidity.
Inside your home, you must have a hygrometer that is user-friendly. How will you know if your hygrometer is easy to use or not?
- First: Your hygrometer must be easy to read. The accurate humidity in house environment should be reflected on its display. Some hygrometers are called electronic hygrometers. These are made with LCD for your reading convenience. The cost of this electronic hygrometers range from $15 to $60.
- Second: Your chosen hygrometer must perfectly provide users accurate humidity readings for optimal humidity control. The term for this is accurate calibration because all hygrometers must be properly calibrated. Unfortunately, some hygrometers in the market today lack this salient hygrometer characteristic which are called Drift.
- Drift means that a hygrometer cannot sustain its accuracy over the years. Because of this, you must re-calibrate your device at least once a year. This must be especially applied to the mechanical types of hygrometers.
- On the other hand: Humidity in house refers to the amount of water vapor released in the air within your house which can affect indoor air quality. Humidity in house varies on a daily basis year after year. During winter months, moisture due to your daily activities leads to high levels of humidity. To control relative humidity in your house, turn down your humidstat or use a warm mist humidifier.
How To Purchase A Hygrometer?
Hygrometers come in different styles to suit your needs. A hygrometer can be a digital or analog type, and for home use or industrial purposes. In availing one, you should look at the scale of the hygrometer. If you are reading scales in Celsius, buy one with a Celsius scale otherwise, buy one with a Fahrenheit scale.
Next, check the graduation measurements on the hygrometer. Be sure that it has large numbers for convenient measurement readings.
Third, it must be easy to use that it doesn't require any technical expertise to operate. Furthermore, it must have a warranty so that you can have a peace of mind in case it immediately breaks down.
The invention of a hygrometer really helps however, users must have an adequate understanding of the hygrometer especially on how to care of it properly to make it last for a lifetime.

Butterflies are fluttering mosaics. The beauty of each one's wings comes from thousands of miniscule, overlapping scales in different colors. Yet butterflies bring more than their good looks to gardens; they are an important link in the chain of life. Their larvae are particularly important in feeding other small animals, including hummingbirds.
Salvias and companion plants are another part of this chain of beauty and sustenance. Adult butterflies thrive on the rich nectar of many sages (Salvia spp.). They lay eggs on other favorite host plants, such as Milkweeds (Asclepias spp.), that their baby caterpillars enjoy eating. The presence of butterflies in your garden indicates healthy habitat. In our articles about butterflies and their nighttime relatives, moths, we offer ideas for growing tasty habitat for winged visitors and for creating a mosaic of color in your garden.

Before having kids, I wanted them close together- I wanted then to be 2 years apart in school. After having my first daughter, I just never felt "ready". I had an awful tear that took well over a year to be fully back to normal. And that made me too scared to go for it again. My body just didn't feel ready.
As time was running out for my kids to be 2 school years apart, we decided it was time to try again. We did the "NTNP" for a while, bc I was too scared to just go for it. I just never fully felt ready. But I knew I wanted another. Then I became pregnant with Lucy. She was scheduled to be due in January, so 3 school years apart from my first daughter... But she came early, so they very well could be 2 years apart after all.
For me, it's tough having 2 little ones. I can't imagine I'd they were closer in age and both needing me and feeling spread even thinner. We've decided that "if" we have another, it won't be til Lucy is closer to 3.

The customer service was very professional and considerate. I was notified of every step and was also able to make substitutions due to delays, which were not due to the company. I don't know of a single other company that takes the time to personally call their customers to be sure a quality product is delivered and picked up in the same condition. Thank you all for your wonderful service :)"

As Michele Bachmann campaigned in Iowa the last couple of days, she pleaded with potential caucus goers not to settle for a candidate who wavers on important issues such as the life of the unborn. Bachmann took that message to Sioux City, Council Bluffs, Des Moines, Newton, and Grinnell.
In many respects, the Bachmann campaign is starting anew. Gone is her luxury tour bus and the blaring music that was used to announce her arrival at events. Bachmann now travels in a 15-passenger van and holds her events in community centers, coffee shops, and hotels just like other candidates.
Bachmann seemed very comfortable at Uncle Nancy's coffee shop in Newton yesterday afternoon. She took her time and worked the room as she entered the popular coffee shop, and then took questions and mingled with people as she made her exit. The role of the underdog candidate appears to be a better fit for Bachmann's style of politics than being the frontrunner who only talks to large audiences and is more difficult to approach.
The final event on Bachmann's latest campaign swing, a fundraiser for the FAMiLY Leader at Danny Carroll's pumpkin patch in Grinnell, didn't go quite as planned. Over 60 Grinnell College students showed up to the fundraiser. It was apparent early on what was going on, but the Bachmann campaign didn't seem too alarmed.
The Grinnell College students waited patiently along with other guests in the upper level of the barn where the event was to take place. Shortly after 6 p.m., Joy Carroll, Danny's wife, could be seen directing paid guests to a different location on the farm. Instead of holding the event as planned, the Bachmann campaign made the decision to meet privately with supporters of the FAMiLY Leader in the Carrolls' home.
Not only was the decision made not to speak in the barn as planned, but the Carrolls also called the authorities to help manage the situation. A total of five police cars were dispatched to the Carroll farm, and law enforcement officials cordoned off the protesters from the grounds of the house and the pumpkin farm so that Bachmann could take a tour.
For the most part the protestors were very polite. When Bachmann was outside, the crowd watched from afar. They attempted to clap and chant, but did nothing that distracted Bachmann on her tour. As time passed by, some protesters brought signs to hold up. Most of them made political statements about gay marriage, while other signs made fun of Bachmann.
Alice Stewart, Bachmann's national press secretary, told the media that the event was private fundraiser, which is why Bachmann addressed the paying patrons in the Carrolls' home. Stewart's explanation seemed odd considering that the media was invited to cover the event, which indicates that the event was not initially intended to be private.
It was also strange that neither the Bachmann campaign nor the Carrolls attempt to keep the Grinnell College students from entering the area where Bachmann was going to speak. If the event was indeed closed and the students didn't pay, why were they allowed to go to the second floor of the barn in the first place?
Bachmann's decision to avoid a potentially hostile crowd also sets a bad precedent. While it was easy for Bachmann to avoid the protesters by going into a private home, what would she have done had they shown up to her meet and greet in Grinnell earlier in the day? Would Bachmann have cancelled her event because of a potentially hostile crowd?
Running for President is no easy task, but being able to deal with an unfriendly crowd is a necessity in modern day politics. Calling the authorities was probably the correct call due to the large number of protestors who showed up to the Carroll farm, but Bachmann's refusal to give her remarks as planned only emboldens the protesters, who could now look to cause more trouble for Bachmann in the future.
Bachmann's handling of the event may have allowed her to escape from an uncomfortable situation, but she also missed an opportunity to display her "titanium spine."
Below are photos from the event as well as a few short videos.

Every time I visit the doctor, he often inquires if I am making the right food choice. I am sure that you are also asked the same question.
No matter how healthy we seem or feel it is extremely important to first lay out the most healthiest foods on the plate. To eat healthy should be a choice, a decision. If you want to diet and lose some weight, you should first consider healthy eating.
According to experts, if one follows a proper and well balanced diet every day, there is no chance of you putting on weight. A balanced meal contains the right amount of proteins and the nutrients required to provide your body with ample energy to last for the day.
Today, Boldsky suggests a few reasons why healthy eating is better than dieting. If you take a look at these valid reasons we are sure that you will change your mine when it comes to food choices.
Today, make no mistake of healthy eating cause as time progresses and when you age, these are the foods which will help you lead a better and healthier life.
So, take a look at these reasons why eating healthy rather than dieting is an ideal decision to make:
You Will Get Your Ideal Weight
You should know that when you feel good, you will be comfortable in your own skin, rather than constantly focusing on your size or weight. Therefore, healthy eating helps you feel good and thus aids in keeping your weight on the right track too.
A Diet Messes With Your Entire Body
Restricting your calories intake will actually lower down your body's metabolism and in turn will cause your body to panic making you want to eat more. Therefore, eating the foods you like as long as it is healthy is an ideal choice to make right now.
Healthy Foods Satisfy You
When you eat a well balanced meal which contains proteins and nutrientsyou are indirectly satisfying the body and hunger hormones so that you are not constantly reaching for snack that will aid weight loss.
Eating Healthy Provides Energy
There are some healthy foods which when consumed provide the body with unlimited energy. Foods like eggs, lean meat, green veggies and fruits are a few that aid to better energy and health.
You Have To Eat Healthy & Workout
Together with eating healthy you also need to workout. Exercises are important for the body since they help to keep the muscles active as well as provide you with better circulation. Healthy foods contain high amounts of energy so make use of it at the gym.
Get That Natural Detox
Experts state that one should have the habit of undergoing a detox treatment every month. This detox treatment should consist of nutrients, vitamins, minerals, and amino acids which are found in fresh, real foods like vegetables.
Healthy Foods = Good BP
Stress and work pressure leads to high blood pressure. Eating a balanced meal every day will help to regulate your bp. Consume fresh vegetables as their properties will help to keep your blood sugar more stable, in turn causing the body to burn off the excess fat and weight that is stored in the body.

A great backpack to get the kids excited to get outside…
Source: bought via a "pro deal"
Price Paid: $80 pro deal, shipped
A great backpack to get the kids excited to get outside and explore a little more, and let them carry a little more gear on our backpacking trips. Shoulder straps have a large range of adjustability to fit many different torso lengths.
- Lightweight
- Adjustable
- Comfortable
- Lid doesn't detach
- Side pockets billow in, don't expand out
I recently purchased the Deuter Fox 40 so my kids can shoulder more of the weight on our upcoming backpacking trip. My three older kids (ages 5, 7, and 9) were excited to see it and took turns trying it on. They all felt it fit great, though I did have to cinch the waist belt all the way tight to fit on two of the three. The shoulder straps were easy to adjust the length of the torso. At its largest size, it even fit my wife (5'3").
I added about 12 pounds of gear and all three kids still enjoyed running around in the house with it on. So, we took it outside for a 1+ mile walk around the neighborhood, with the two older kids taking turns carrying it around. Neither of them complained of the weight and both said it was comfortable, even though I didn't do a great job of properly packing it to evenly distribute the weight.
The side compression straps did a great job of keeping everything snug, even with only using about 30-40% of capacity.
I knew prior to purchase that the top lid was not removable to double as a small daypack/fanny pack. Not a deal breaker, just would have made this pack that much better.
Also, there is a side pocket on each side. I was a bit disappointed to see that these pockets don't really add any capacity to the bag. By that I mean that they don't really expand outward, but rather into the pack. Thus, if you load the side pockets first, they take up capacity from the main interior pocket, and if you load them up last, they probably won't hold much.
We have not yet had the chance to take this out on a backpacking trip to fully put it through the ringer, but for now, I have been very satisfied with the quality of the bag, the adjustability of the straps, and the comfort of my kids while they carry it.
I plan to update my review once I've had a chance to take it up into the mountains.
Thanks for the initial review, mackaym. I'll look forward to hearing how the Fox 40 pack works out for your kids. I'd love to see a few pictures of it once it's in use too. Have a great time out there with your family!
