Copper Silver Ionization Technology Types
Facility Potable Water Treatment vs. Swimming Pool Water Treatment Technologies when investigating the engineering requirements of Copper Silver Ionization Technology.
When it comes to copper silver ionisation evaluations, engineers and end users commonly discover two types of these water treatment technologies:
Facility Potable Water Copper Silver Ionization Technology Types:
The commercial (medical and military) types of copper silver ionization units are engineered for facility potable water distribution networks such as those found in healthcare facilities, hotels, schools, commercial buildings or military establishments. Key engineering features and observations include:
- PLC controlled automated DC voltage control (0 – 180 VDC)
- PLC software controlled amperage output based on unit size (10,20,30,40, up to 160 amps)
- Daily water makeup capacity for each controller based on model size installed in an in-line facility potable water:
- Level 1: 5,000 to 22,500 GPD
- Level 2: 23,000 to 46,000 GPD
- Level 3: 46,500 to 69,000 GPD
- etc…
- Remote PLC monitoring and controls,
- Remote activation data monitoring, logging and reporting,
- Engineered spesificly for facility potable water applications,
- Internal electrodes composition ARE intended for human consumption. 99.9% Cu / 99.99% Ag electrode usage with laboratory report provides safe for consumption electrodes. (Electrode MSDS Trace elements must be reported. Potential presence of trace elements such as: As, Cn, Pb, Hg)
- High mass electrode to last between 9 to 24 months ( 6 – 9 lbs)
- Installed in moderate or higher load water use systems (i.e. facility potable water)
- Ideal bactericide & algaecide properties, (i.e. excellent for Legionella prevention)
- Manufactured by only 4 companies globally, Canada (1), USA (2), UK (2)
- Engineered for facility potable water Legionella prevention applications (See Details)
- Medical, Commercial & Military applications for facility potable water
- Startup Cost ($10,000 – $225,000 USD)
- Electrode replacement Cost: ($2,500 to $6,000 each cell)
- See chart bellow for details
Not all copper silver ionization technology types are created equal.
When comparing swimming pool units to larger medical, commercial or military grade Copper Silver Ionization types, the engineering differences will be very clear. In fact, swimming pool units, when installed within potable water distribution network, have been known to fail within a few weeks due to controller output limitations.
Engineers world wide understand that commercial size copper silver ionisation units such as AquaLyse® or the CSI Defender® units are required for 100% facility potable water treatment and/or domestic potable hot water loops.
Those trying to install more affordable and smaller swimming pool ion generators within a facility potable water network fail within weeks and this leaves the end user without any means of controlling Legionella growth.
Medical, commercial or military grade copper silver ionisation technology such as AquaLyse® should be used when Legionella control and prevention is required within a facility potable water distribution network.
|Engineering & Observations for Each Technology type
|Swimming Pool type Copper Silver Ionization water treatment:
|Facility Potable Water Copper Silver Ionization Application
|Electrical Power Consumption
|Maximum applied DC voltage to electrodes
|Current draw per system
|Electrode mass per ionisation chamber cell
|Electrode surface contact with water per ionisation chamber cell
|Automated variable DC Power Output to compensate for electrode erosion in real time:
|Timer control
|Industrial Applications
|Remote Monitoring / Management
|Residential swimming pools
|Ornamental fountains
|Agricultural Fruit Wash
|Domestic hot water
|Cooling towers
|Irrigation systems
|Low conductivity potable water
|High conductivity potable water
|Time for installation
|Copper test kits / monitoring
|Average Cost ea. (US)
Swimming Pool Copper Silver Ionization Technology Type:
This more common "residential" type of copper silver ionization unit is engineered for swimming pool applications. Key swimming pool type copper silver ionisation engineering features & observations:
- Manual DC output voltage control (6, 12, 24, 48)
- Fix amperage output based on model number (0.2 – 5 amps)
- Daily water makeup capacity for each controller in a recirculated swimming pool: 10 to 1,000 GPD
- Small & easy to replace electrodes, ( 0.25 to 3 lbs)
- Internal electrodes composition NOT intended for human consumption. 99.9% Cu electrode usage does not guarantee safe for consumption electrodes. (Electrode MSDS Trace elements must be reported. Potential presence of trace elements such as: As, Cn, Pb, Hg)
- Installed in low usage recirculated water (i.e. swimming pools, ornamental fountains)
- Manufactures by hundreds of companies globally
- Not engineered for facility potable water Legionella prevention applications (See Details)
- Residential use / commercial larger swimming pool use
- Very affordable ($200 – $9,500 USD)
- Electrode replacement Cost: ($85 to $500 each cell)
- See chart bellow for details
Note: Swimming pool copper silver ionization technology type units are not engineered for facility potable water Legionella control and prevention. Their smaller electrodes, lack of electrical power output and lack of automated variable voltage output features have been reported to cause application failures within a few weeks after installation.

Consuming Kids: The Commercialization of Childhood Trailer (2007)
31 December 2007 Factual 66 mins
Consuming Kids throws desperately needed light on the practices of a relentless multi-billion dollar marketing machine that now sells kids and their parents everything from junk food and violent video games to bogus educational products and the family car. Drawing on the insights of health care professionals, children's advocates, and industry insiders, the film focuses on the explosive growth of child marketing in the wake of deregulation, showing how youth marketers have used the latest advances in psychology, anthropology, and neuroscience to transform American children into one of the most powerful and profitable consumer demographics in the world. Consuming Kids pushes back against the wholesale commercialization of childhood, raising urgent questions about the ethics of children's marketing and its impact on the health and well-being of kids.

THOMPSON-OKANAGAN - RCMP are reminding residents they have the power to protect themselves from fraud by checking out the latest scams in the area.
Scammers use a variety of methods to swindle the unsuspecting including phone calls, email or even a knock at the door. People might fall prey to internet phishing, text scams and fake charities, if they don't know what to look for.
In the last few weeks, a lottery prize scam surfaced in Vernon with several residents complaining scammers offered a large prize, but not without giving up personal details and banking information, according to a media release.
"The Community Policing Office has received notice that a resident has fallen victim to the Microsoft scam where a caller says they are from Microsoft, and that there is a problem with their computer," Coordinator of the City of Vernon Community Policing Office Rachael Zubick said. "The scammer then asks for credit card info to pay for the computer to be fixed. The senior involved was scammed for several hundred dollars."
Some scams are designed to take advantage of senior citizens. A fraudster might call claiming to be a lawyer or grandchild and say money is needed urgently to get a loved one out of trouble. The person targeted is told to send funds, but it disappears in the hands of the scammer.
The Nigerian letter scam has been around awhile but still nets a few unsuspecting people. The letter offers victims an inheritance from an unknown relative or a percentage of money that must be transferred overseas but the transaction can't take place unless the target reveals their banking information at which time the scammer cleans out the account.
"The good weather is expected to draw out service scammers," Zubick said. "Some go from door-to-door offering to do repairs on a home and then ask for astronomical sums once the intimidated homeowner has agreed to the work. Service scams can also be made by telephone, from someone offering cheap Internet, medical or financial services in order to obtain personal information. These types of scams can also be for offerings of antivirus software and for credit card interest rate reduction schemes."
The RCMP say if it sounds too good to be true, it likely is.

The European Commission's Scoreboard of Macroeconomic Imbalances: The impact of preferences on an early warning system
The European Commission s Scoreboard of Macroeconomic Imbalances is a rare case of a publicly released early warning system. It allows the preferences of the politicians involved to be analysed with regard to the two potential errors of an early warning system missing a crisis and issuing a false alarm. Such an analysis is done for the first time in this article for early warning systems in general by using a standard signals approach, including a preference-based optimisation approach, to set thresholds. It is shown that, in general, the thresholds of the Commission s Scoreboard are set low (resulting in more alarm signals), as compared to a neutral stand.

A wedding day is supposed to be all about the happy couple celebrating their love with the world. What happens, however, when one of the biggest names in Hollywood crashes the festivities? As couple Elisabeth and Ryan learned this weekend, it means a great photo op and a fun memory to add to the special day.
Tom Hanks proved once again to be America's fun uncle as he crashed the unsuspecting couple's wedding photos in New York City. Photographer Meg Miller was there to capture the moment that might otherwise be considered too cool to believe. After delighting the couple and their friends Hanks was sure to snap a quick selfie and share it to Instagram.
Earlier today, Elisabeth and Ryan posted the video of their lovely celebrity encounter, which made me love Hanks even more — if that's actually possible. Just look at how happy he made them!
If pausing his jog for some photos wasn't enough, he also offered his services as an ordained minister for their wedding in case their current one falls through on the big day. Check out footage the Oscar-winning wedding crasher below.
With the rise of social media and a camera in everyone's pockets, unbelievable celebrity surprises like this finally come with the photo evidence to back them up. And Tom Hanks is far from the first celeb to crash a wedding. I'm not just talking about the movie Wedding Crashers.
Here are eight other famous celebrity wedding crashers who took a page out of Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn's book.
1. Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift's surprise visits to with her fans are plentiful and well-documented. But she outdid herself once again by not only showing up to longtime fan Max Singer's wedding to Kenya Smith, but she also performed a stripped-down version of "Blank Space" during the reception.
And being the Pintrest-enviable craftswoman that she is, she also gave the newlyweds a handmade watercolor card. What a gem!
2. Justin Timberlake
Just last month, Justin Timberlake was wrangled by the father of this New Hampshire bride to pop in for a fun wedding photo with the bride and groom.
While Chelsey Gaudet and Ryan Parks were in the middle of their wedding photography, Dennis Gaudet spotted Timberlake milling about the venue and asked him to surprise his daughter. The "Can't Stop The Feeling" singer happily obliged. Now if only they could have convinced him to join them on the dance floor.
3. Maroon 5
One of the biggest large-scale wedding crashes was put together by Maroon 5 for their song "Sugar." Over the course of one three-day weekend, the band actually gave surprise performance at actual weddings in Los Angeles.
In this case, it was the grooms who orchestrated the big event to shock their brides and wedding guests the day of. While talking to ET, a Maroon 5 representative outlined a bit of how the events went down.
"Only the grooms knew in each case. However they disclosed it to their bride and the wedding party, we're not sure, but they all wanted it to be as equally a surprise as we did. They had stages set up for their actual wedding band already. All we did was some simple continuity changes to match each one as best we could."
Not only did these couples get an awesome wedding band, they also have footage of their day memorialized in an actual music video.
4. Beyoncé
I imagine most brides wouldn't want to be upstaged on their special day, but I'd be more than willing to make an exception if Beyoncé wants to crash my wedding.
While vacationing with her family in 2014, the hip hop power couple visited a local church in Portofino, Italy, unwittingly crashing the wedding of a fan. The blushing bride looked gorgeous in her lace dress and was somehow able to maintain some semblance of cool while standing beside Queen Bey. Talk about a big day!
5. Bill Murray
To be fair, this isn't technically a wedding, but Bill Murray is so notoriously hard to pin down that I'm still going to say it counts.
Stories of Bill Murray's random appliances at fan events, bars and house parties have long been the stuff of legends — but there's no denying this video footage of him giving a speech at a bachelor party. With as much life experience as Murray has under his belt, I trust the sage advice he doles out to the young groom and his friends.

6. Snoop Doog
After saying their vows at the Hard Rock Hotel in Chicago, the photographer for newlyweds Neesha Ghadiali and and Joe Scheller spotted Snoop Dogg in the lobby. Upon hearing Scheller's mother point out that the couple is a big fan of the rapper, the photographer sprung into action.
In an interview with NY Daily News, president of Allusion Photography, Sherry Hagerman, said that Snoop hung around for a bit and shared some laughs with the happy couple.
"They had a great conversation and a ton of laughs inside the bar. Snoop was a blast to be around, and a really great person for making the day of Neesha and Joe a bit more special."
Snoop also posted a photo to Instagram suggesting he was more than happy to be their third wheel.
7. Serena Williams
I have long been a proponent of casual, comfortable wedding attire, but being the trendsetter she is, Serena Williams is way ahead of the curve.
During Ruth and Sam Kormoi's Miami Beach wedding, the wedding party wasn't surprised to see a celeb on their famous beaches. But after the ceremony, they were pleased to find that the leopard print bathing suit-clad Williams was not only willing to take a photo — she was asking them for one. The groom told People:
"I told my friend Eddie, 'Eddie, go and see if she wouldn't mind taking a picture.' So Eddie went and asked. He said she was ecstatic and would be happy to. She was even asking, 'Let me take a picture with the bride and groom!' "
8. Brad Pitt
Abi Lingwood had already found her knight in shining armor in her groom Daniel, but that didn't stop her from secretly hoping for another kiss on her wedding day. Though when the prospective kisser is A-list actor Brad Pitt, could Daniel really blame her?
While filming Fury near Buckinghamshire, England, Brad Pitt attended a meeting in the Stoke Park Hotel where the Lingwoods were celebrating their nuptials. While speaking with E! News, Abi says she almost didn't believe her husband when he said Pitt was sitting in the bar nearby. Until she heard a familiar American accent, that is.
"I actually gasped and said to myself, 'Oh my god, it really is you!' He congratulated us on our wedding said I looked great in my dress, shook our hands and said to pose for a picture. He was very accommodating. Unfortunately I didn't get a kiss from him!"
While the male half of Brangelina is no longer paired up, the Lingwood relationship is happily intact, according to Facebook.
If the movie Wedding Crashers taught us anything, it's that upstaging the bridal party is never a good idea. Unless you're a massive celebrity with a streak of good nature, in which case would you mind posing for a few pictures?
Which celebrity would you want to see crash your special day? Let us know in the comments section!

I ran into former GOP Chairman Tom Fuentes at the opening of the new Legal Aid Society offices in Santa Ana and asked him if since his hospitalization he's been able to get back into his full Saturday morning garage-sale mode.
Indeed, he said, and three Saturdays ago in Laguna Beach he got a taste of the bonanza all junkers live for – the masterpiece masquerading as disposable doctor's-office art. Two huge religious-themed acrylics, including one of John the Baptistbaptizing Jesus, were being offered for $30 and $40, respectively. Ever the Knight of Malta, Fuentes bought them on the spot and then went home and did a little research on the artist, Harut Hakobyan.
He found him living in L.A. County, called him and discovered the pieces had originally sold for $3,500 each. In other words, Fuentes got them at 1 percent of their original sales price. A biography on the Web site of independent art collector Lawrence J. Cantor & Co. says Hakobyan, a native of Armenia, has exhibited widely in Eastern Europe and California and has sold his works around the globe. So two of them now dominate walls in Fuentes' Lake Forest home, where he says the family is enjoying the "bold, dynamic" and somewhat "Byzantine" works.
He didn't find a Dutch master, but not bad, and I do think it's time for another Saturday morning ride-along.
I was remindedit was Fuentes who introduced me to Tan Nguyenone evening last year as we were having cigars on the patio of the Balboa Bay Club. Nguyen had just decided to run against Sanchez, and Fuentes was taking the young man around.
"Very sad," Fuentes says of his former protegé's troubles. "I helped him through the primary, but haven't spoken to him for three months. Never did I detect anything other than a very enthusiastic immigrant."
Surprised to getseveral critical responses to the column I had about Todd Spitzerand his hyper-proactive use of the state's online sex-offender registry. One caller said she is a relative of someone on the registry. I would have loved to interview her, but she didn't leave her name or number. There was real anguish in her voice, though, and I believe she is for real.
"Some of us are innocent relatives of these people, and regardless of what the law is, we are being harassed (and) our children are being threatened," she said. "I can't tell you when the last day was that I didn't spend in complete and utter fear for my children because everyone has access to everything.
"People don't realize we're the family you sit next to in church. Our kids have known your kids their whole lives, and now we are sentenced because of these Web sites. … Hopefully, we'll be able to leave this state and go into hiding for the protection of our innocent family members. We are good people, and we are serving a sentence."
I would notethat innocent family members of every type of criminal suffer by association. Also, it is illegal – Penal Code Sec. 290.46 (h)(2) – to use information on the Megan's Law Web site to harass anyone on the registry or his family. Every time you use the site, www.meganslaw.ca.gov, you must click on a box acknowledging that before you can search.
The District Attorney's Office knows of no such O.C. harassment cases but will investigate any complaint. A big fear among law-and-order types is that vigilantes will cause a backlash and a call to shut down the site. And in Maine earlier this April, that fear was realized when a 20-year-old man went to the homes of two men he'd found on the state registry and shot and killed them in cold blood. Maine briefly shut down its site but restarted it, figuring, for now anyway, the good outweighs the risk.
Also relatedto my Megan's Law column were responses from some who thought it came off as a pro-Prop. 83 rant, which wasn't my intent, although it might have been Spitzer's. To give these folks their due: They urge a close reading of the proposition and the arguments, and careful consideration of whether the law really needs to be expanded.
"To the little ones," Carole Urieof Laguna Beach wrote, "be sure to tell them Mommy or Daddy or Uncle George is more likely to molest them than a stranger."
Not Uncle George!

What you will get?
A book that preserves the precious, fleeting moments of your little one's childhood.
Your own masterpiece, dedicated to your child.
A Book that you child will read more often than any other — because it's been written about him or her by Mom.
A Book to record your words forever. Even when your children grow up, they'll still cherish your stories and read them again and again.
The Book covers your child's life
from birth to preschool
Some chapters will include your child's answers to a few fun questions we'll suggest.
So this project is great for you if:
Your child is 3-5 years old (preschool)
Ideal. You can ask your little one the questions and record his or her amusing,
unpredictable answers.
Your child is 6-7 years old
Suitable. You'll still remember many interesting moments from the earlier years.
Also, your child is still young enough to give cute and funny answers to the questions.
Your child is 8 years old or older
Still suitable if you want to re-live your memories of your child's early years.
But for some chapters you'll have to describe things that you remember instead of interviewing your child.
For babies under age 1 and toddlers we will run a special separate project in future.
What to Expect
1 Big Book
that you'll cherish forever
11 Chapters
of childhood covered
60 Pages
full of treasured moments

I have just returned from a month in Sweden, during which I have been following--albeit incompletely and at a distance--the issues surrounding the difficult rollout of the HealthCare.gov website and the more recent stories about people losing insurance coverage because their existing plans don't meet the minimum standards of the 2010 overhaul.
I try to keep partisan politics out of this blog, but both of these fiascos seem to me to illustrate the problems that can arise when political leaders (or their advisors) fail to think sufficiently about management and implementation issues involved in government programs.
As I understand it from the limited accounts I have seen, there were a number of warnings before the HealthCare.gov website was launched that it had not been sufficiently tested and that launching it was very high risk. (As a sidebar, it should be noted that people who asked why it should be so complicated or expensive for the government to "put up a website" misunderstand what HealthCare.gov had to do – link hundreds of technologically diverse databases from different insurance providers and government organizations, quite a complex task. This was nothing like some startup company establishing a webpage to tell customers about what the company does.)
The question is whether and when President Barack Obama or his senior staff were informed of these problems. If they were not, why not? If they were, did they make a conscious decision to take the risk and let the site go live on the original date, comparing the risks of various courses in light of the politically charged debate about Obamacare? If Obama knew the risks, and if he explicitly decided they were worth taking, then the Oct. 1 launch was defensible, though probably in retrospect a bad decision. (When you take a risk, it is possible to have what decision theorists call "good decision, bad outcome.") Otherwise, though, what happened reflects the president's failure to sufficiently consider management issues with the execution of the program.
The problems that have arisen about cancelled plans, given that Obama promised during the debate over the law that anyone who was happy with their current plan could keep it, seems – unless there is something relevant that I haven't seen – to be a clear case of not paying enough attention in a timely way to implementation issues for new legislation. It would seem that if the bill contained minimum standards for health insurance plans, there was a very high probability that some, or even many, existing plans might not meet the minimum standards; indeed, if every plan met the standards, why bother to legislate it?
Given that some plans would not meet the standards, it is also a wise assumption that some insurance companies would choose to cancel plans not meeting the standards, rather than upgrading the coverage, and that this would mean some people would lose existing coverage. Here, it seems as if there was a failure to think through implementation issues in the legislation. The result is last week's fiasco number two for Obamacare.
The lesson for all politicians: You ignore management and implementation at your peril.
As I said, I've been away for a month. Have I missed something here?

Meet 21 early-career leaders who are doing great things in federal IT.
See all this year's winners
Alan Balutis and Don Upson debate the wisdom of a cabinet-level IT shop -- and a thorough reorganization of about a dozen other agencies.
The Trump administration's plan to use predictive software to rate threats posed by immigrants, refugees and asylum seekers will result in discriminatory decisions, say a group of privacy advocates and computer scientists.
IT modernization is not only key for federal agencies, but to GSA's Federal Acquisition Service.
The $700 billion defense bill now poised for final passage includes provisions to modernize agency IT through revolving funds and allow for for easy, off-the-shelf Pentagon procurement.
The Vacancies Act sets time limits on the period for acting officials to occupy politically appointed roles -- and some of these officials are about to run out of time.
Census made several key slipups in its decision to award a $283 million mobile device contract for the 2020 population count, according to the Government Accountability Office.
Some things you didn't say: First, the problems are not surprising given that two political appointees (Sibelius and Tavenner) were in charge, neither of which has had experience with a large IT development project (to the best of my knowledge). Second, major IT projects stumble or fall in both government and the private sector (see Ewusi-Mensuh, Software Development Failures, MIT Press 2003, which describes several examples) -- this was not unique to government. Third, the agency's contract strategy -- giving pieces of the project to 55 contractors instead of making one firm responsible for the whole thing -- was stupid and made everything more difficult. (I'm sure that HHS and CMS can give all sorts of reasons why this was necessary. Finally, the political environment caused the administration to rush the project and then yielded a lot more squawking than was warranted.
It sounds like no one wanted to give the boss bad news. In this case, the bad news was "Your idea is a disaster waiting to happen- don't sign it into law". The problems with the web site are nothing- I'm much more worried about the other effects.
When did congress vote to (& pass) changes to the Law that the president is talking about?
Those that voted for it should be forced to pay 100% of it. Those that were smart enough to not vote in support of it should pay zero % of it!!! This is like buying a brand new Jaugar and making the neighbor pay for 110% of it.
In answer to your question, here's what you're missing. Health care plans that are *better* than the "minimum standard" are being canceled, too. Why? As the president said yesterday, "If you had or have one of these plans before the Affordable Care Act came into law, and you really like that plan, what we said was, you could keep it, if it hasn't changed since the law's passed." What plan will *never* have a change? E.g., a premium increase? Virtually all plans are affected, not just "substandard" plans. What the president promised (up until yesterday) was "If you like your doctor, you will be able to keep your doctor, period. If you like your health care plan, you'll be able to keep your health care plan, period. No one will take it away, no matter what." No caveats about substandard plans or changes to existing plans. Many Americans believed the president and voted for him on the basis of this promise. NBC reported recently that HHS knew this promise was false. The president also said the average family of four would save $2500 a year under ACA. This is also false. Yesterday's restatement of the election year promise is still false. And all of these broken promises and falsehoods obscure the key question that Americans should be asking, which is why the president should be allowed to decide if we get to keep our plan or not? Why do we want this or any president to decide what health care plan we are allowed to have? The project (mis)management of healthcare.gov is sad, typical, and largely beside the real point. Americans have lost their freedom to choose their own health care, and to correct that, the ACA needs to be repealed.

I read "Running atop the world" [LI Life, April 6], a feel-good story about a man competing in the North Pole Marathon to mark a landmark birthday.
I thought it was pretty cool, how he got started running to lose weight, and how he wants to run on all seven continents.
But when I read that he was running to raise money for victims of the 2010 Haitian earthquake, I understood why he had raised only $300. There was a devastating event much closer to home that Long Islanders can relate to: superstorm Sandy.
This was a nice story for Newsday's LI Life section, but not one to tug on my heartstrings to donate.

Who doesn't love taking obnoxious photos of their food? I can't help it. Especially when you go to a nice restaurant and they place the food on the plate so artistically.
I also have a new found love for cooking. I told you before I would love to include food recipes and cooking on the blog but I am way too excited to eat food. I don't have the patience to set the lighting and take million photos when all I want to do is enjoy.
As the theme has been Paris, and Paris is the culinary capitol of the world… here is your taste of Paris.
Eat like a Local
Whether I travel to Asia or Europe I try to open my mind to how locals eat and follow accordingly. Avoiding the typical fast-food franchises. However when we landed in Paris it was a cold rainy day and we were looking for somewhere to duck inside for warmth and there it was… Chipotle!
So yes, the first Parisian meal was Chipotle. Oh well, we don't have Chipotle in Switzerland so I stuffed my face with glee.
I made up for it though with tons of seafood, fish and escargot.
I am not a huge meat eater but every now and then I will enjoy a steak. Well, I was told a couple times that the chef refuses to cook anything past medium done… so I tried one medium steak that was practically rare so unless you are about that life I'd advise to stay away from the red meat. I got a bit sick that night.
Drink and Eat More
Enjoy a nice glass of wine and eat forever. Every good meal last hours.
I even managed to eat a salad or two.
Dessert is French for Dessert… funny enough though appetizer is french for starter.
Baba Au Rhum is a small little cake that is extremely sweet and you pour liquor over.
Oh and the pastries are AMAZING! if you're a bread love like me you have gone to heaven.
Do you like trying new food or prefer to stick to what you know?

Hey, I'm currently building a new computer and I need to know if these work together. MSI 970 GAMING Desktop Motherboard with Two PCle Slots and Two Rear USB 3.0 Ports
and the Thermaltake Chaser Series Chaser MK-I (VN300M1W2N) Black SECC ATX Full Tower Computer Case, if they don't fit, do you have any recommendations for a different component? I want this PC primarily for gaming and by budget for these two parts combined is around $500. The sooner anyone can help me with this, the better, thanks a million! If there's any more information you need me to add, I'd be happy to add it.

- Thanks Leslie,

Is there a site where I can check for standardized place names? If I have a

FS and try it out but that is more trouble than it is worth. I am hoping
for a better solution.

- It can be a problem at a FHC when users run AQ and it is not as they expect.
Our solution was
1. We defined the preferences and other things as we would like to have
2. We wrote a batch file and placed it on every computer.
3. We placed the preferred AQ on one computer
4. We created a desktop icon that will run the batch file.
5. The batch file loads AQ on the computer and runs AQ.
6. Now a patron can modify the preferences any way he/she wishes. The
next time the program is run it will revert to our selected preferences.
7. If we want to change any of the 'standard' preferences we need only
change our master file.

fonts, icons, etc. I can see that if AQ is installed on a public
computer -- like in a library or a FHC, that each user may want
different preferences. We'll have to give this some thought.
In the meantime, a lot of FHCs 'clean' their computers often -- meaning
they remove databases, or perform a process that completely refreshes
the computer. A complete refresh would presumably set AQ's preferences
to initial settings. If a FHC staff member would include deleting the
preferences file for AQ when the databases are flushed, then this would
set AQ to a default state for at least the first person to use the
computer after such a cleaning.

I'm trying to create a MockHttpServletRequest using addParameter(String,String) or setParameter(String,String). However, both these methods create a String[] instead of a String value. When I execute the method under test, it fails because it is calling request.getParameter(String) which is looking for a string parameter and not a string array. I looked at the source code for the MockHttpServletRequest and both the addParameter and setParameter methods convert the string value passed in into a string array and calls the overloaded addParameter(String,String[]) or setParameter(String,String[]). Is there a way to test this legacy code using a mock servlet request without changing the code. The objective is to get the method under test and then to refactor as needed. Thank you for any help you may be able to provide.

So far, we've survived what is being termed "Blizzard '05". We got between two and three feet of snow, including drifting:
Compare it to my Snowcakes picture of two years ago.
The town of Brookline (like the city of Boston) has closed school for two days, which seems completely unwarranted. Better safe than sorry, I guess.

The Lost City of Z REVIEWS
Unusual Review Notes for an Unusual Movie
That the movie succeeds is a credit to Hunnam, who comes of age both literally and figuratively in this movie with a performance of great humility, charm, and grit. A far cry from his breakout role as a motorcycle gang leader, and an even further cry from his awkward performance in Guy Ritchie's unique (and hopefully never-to-be-repeated) view of ...
Massive let down
It's a really good example of how a terrible script can completely destroy a movie. There are too many things which make no sense to list, but the key issues are:. For a film that seems so keen to virtue-signal about white ignorance and racism, it does nothing to explain to us Fawcett's theories about the people of Z. Who were they? How did their ...
The Lost Art of Script Writing
This is the first review I have ever contributed to IMDb which I use on a regular basis to inform my viewing choices but I feel compelled to write it as the high ratings are so unjustified I feel I have a duty to share my experience and balance the 7.4 (!!!!) score. I went into this with high expectations... every ingredient was present to potenti...
The film takes place in the 20th century, where British explorer Percy Fawcett journeys into the Amazon to discover evidence of a previously unknown civilization.
I'm sad to say that I was disappointed by this film in almost every aspect. It seems to me that the biggest problem it has is the pacing. For a two and a half hour long film, pacing is important to keep the viewers engaged and this movie just gets it completely wrong. It feels like three movies clumsily stuffed into one, and as if that wasn't enou...
If the book is as captivating as the film, I'm glad I haven't read it!
I found the experience of watching this film to be akin to that of listening to a person living with dementia telling you about their life, with an adoring relative interjecting only to say "Oh he was lovely!" every now and then.. It is, in essence, a series of episodes vaguely summarising various events of Fawcett's life. Occasionally but briefly...
Should be renamed The Lost City of Zzzz...
What was probably an incredibly interesting story has been turned into an incredibly dull film. Charlie Hunnam's Fawcett is as flat as roadkill and Robert Pattinson might as well have stayed at home in bed for all he brings to the tale. As for Angus Macfadyen; he obviously thought he was in a different movie entirely. Three times during this film ...
A stunningly shot and classically told story
This is a wonderful film that restores faith in the traditional art of movie making. Richly shot on 35mm by DoP Darius Khondji, every frame feels like an exquisite painting, carefully constructed by a filmmaker at the top of his game in James Gray. The backdrops of England, the Western Front and Amazonia all have interest on every inch of the scre...
Interesting portrait of a man, indeed but as a movie it almost lost me.
It's one of those labor of loves it seems as the film felt like it was more interested in making an artistic narrative than it was about making money. I can respect that, but it was a boring movie for that reason. . The Lost city of Z is about a British explorer named Percy Fawcett who while on a survey mission in the amazon discovers evidence tha...
Someone managed to make the exploration of the Amazon incredibly dull.
*****Spoiler Alert**** I was really looking forward to this film, as how can the exploration of the Amazon be anything other than amazing? Well I was wrong, this was utterly boring, excruciatingly dull and just plain awful. I can only give it a 1 out of 5 rating. After the first 30 minutes I was looking at my watch and wondering if I should bother...
Exploitation and exploration
Based on the true story of British explorer Percy Fawcett, who made several expeditions to the lost city of Z, believed to be the remains of El Dorado in the Brazilian jungle. The movie follows three of these expeditions and first picks up his life with a long introduction from his military career onwards. The movie becomes only interesting with t...

Determining Substantive Fairness in Operational Requirements Dismissal matters. INTRODUCTION. 2012 was a challenging year with large job losses partly related to protracted strikes in the mining and transport industry and to the domestic and international economic climate.

2012 was a challenging year with large job losses partly related to protracted strikes in the mining and transport industry and to the domestic and international economic climate.
Unfortunately, retrenchments are not always undertaken for the fair reasons recognised by the LRA, namely economic, technological, structural or similar needs of employers. 'Problem employees' are often first on the list.....
Commissioners thus need to have a good understanding of the requirements for substantive fairness.
The LAC has adopted different tests or approaches at different times. These are some of them:
Decision must be bona fide and business-like.
Dismissal as a last resort.
Rationality – reasonable decision and not a 'sham'.
Fairness/ reasonableness - fair to both parties.
Consideration of the operational needs that gave rise to the retrenchments. E.g. Cost reduction, a drive towards competitiveness, etc.
Is retrenchment the only way to achieve such operational needs? Are there not other ways to reduce costs?
Consideration of alternatives? E.g. re-skilling employees in order to take up alternative positions, offering transfers, voluntary severance packages, training layoff scheme, etc.

The Great Migration
The Great Migration
Approximately 110 years after the first landings by Cartier, there were only about 300 people in Quebec. France gave land incentives for 2,000 migrants during the next decade. Early marriage was desperately encouraged amongst the immigrants. The fur trade attracted migrants, both noble and commoner. 15,000 explorers left Montreal in the late 17th and 18th centuries. By 1675, there were 7000 French in Quebec. Migration to New France (Quebec) continued from France until it fell in 1759. In the year 1675 the Acadian presence in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island had reached 500. In 1755, 10,000 French Acadians refused to take an oath of allegiance to England and were deported to Louisiana. The French founded Lower Canada, thus becoming one of the two great founding nations of Canada. The distinguished family name langlinais has made significant contributions to the culture, arts, sciences and religion of France and New France. Amongst the settlers in North America with this distinguished name langlinais were Noël Langlois arrived in Quebec in 1634 from Normandy, he was one of the earliest settlers in Quebec; Jean-Baptiste Langlois (1668), Nicholas Langlois (1671), and Jacques Langois (1680), all arrived in Quebec from Normandy.

Under the Rainbow Trailer (2013)
Laura is still waiting for Prince Charming at the age of 24. So when Sandro appears at a party, exactly like her Prince would in her dreams, she thinks she's found the right one. But then again, when she meets Maxime, Laura starts to wonder if some Princes could be more charming than others? Of course Sandro has problems of his own : his father, Pierre, just bumped into Madam Irma at his father's funeral and this reminded him of the date of his own death which Madame Irma had predicted ages ago. Now Pierre is unable to make any plans, not with his new partner Eleonore, nor with Sandro. And Maxime has his own problems, and so does Eleonore, Marianne, Jacqueline and many others. But don't worry, in the end, they'll all live happily ever after.

Extending Our Dive Times: Enriched Air Nitrox
Just north of Playa Del Carmen in the sleepy little fishing town of Puerto Morales is a wonderful wreck dive surrounded by a government protected reef. The C-56 "Juanita" is a former U.S. military minesweeper that was given to the Mexican government; after 20 years of service with the Mexican military is was purposely sunk to provide an artificial reef. The Juanita sits in about 26 meters of water and provides for some amazing photography opportunities as the Spotted Eagle Rays, Stingrays, Grouper, and Barracuda are always hunting nearby. I took several of our guests to this wreck a few days ago and the view was amazing. I pulled into that perfect neutral buoyancy hover and watched the barracuda hunt the huge schools of bait fish: a well-orchestrated movement of thousands of small fish swimming in unison to avoid becoming someone's dinner.
Extending Our Bottom Time:
Most divers have heard of Enriched Air Nitrox but are you familiar with the extended bottom time benefits of increasing the Oxygen percentage and decreasing the nitrogen that enters our bodies? The Juanita dive is not overly difficult in regards to visibility and current, but missing the show because of decompression times is something that all divers constantly have to monitor. Using the PADI recreational dive planner charts, a 26 meter dive on normal compressed air is about 20 minutes. By increasing the oxygen content from 21% to 32% you have now increased your bottom time to 40 minutes. Taking it a step further, Nitrox 36 gives a maximum of 50 minutes of bottom time, simply by increase the oxygen content and decreasing the nitrogen in your scuba cylinder.
Maximum Operating Depth:
We now know the basic advantage of diving with Nitrox, but it also has its disadvantages. Oxygen at depth and under pressure is toxic and this also applies to Enriched Air. We mitigate these risks by knowing what is the maximum depth that we can use for particular blend and diving that plan. We always plan our dives and dive our plans and the use of Nitrox is no different. With a PPO of 1.4, my maximum depth for Nitrox 32 is 33.5 meters and with Nitrox 36, my MOD is 28.9 meters. Know your dive sites, get a thorough briefing, and pick the blend that works best for your day of diving.
Scuba Diving in Playa Del Carmen:
The PADI Enriched Air Nitrox course is relatively simple and can be done in about four hours. Some theory, knowledge reviews, and learning the tables and charts are all that is required to pass the final exam. When learning from the best scuba instructor in Playa Del Carmen, the atmosphere is relaxed, usually at the local coffee shop or in our classroom. Continue your education while on your next holiday and Diversity Diving is place to be.

Wholesale 13.5 Tog Flame Retardant Duvet (BS 7175)
A highly durable, 13.5 Tog duvet which is fully flame retardant due to its unique proban polyester cover. The proban fabric is tested to British Standard (BS) 7175, 1989 Section 3 after 50 washes at 74c. Filled with high quality hollowfibre, the duvet is light, breathable and extremely comfortable over your body. Due to its 13.5 tog rating, the duvet will keep you nice and warm during the colder months. Available sizes include single and double and can be purchased as a single pack or pack of 5.
Tog: 13.5 Tog
Fabric: Proban treated polyester
Filling: Hollowfibre
Flame Retardant: Yes
Wash Care: Machine Washable
Duvet Sizes

Double - 200 cm x 200 cm

What is Tog?
The Tog is a measure of thermal resistance and is the standard name given for measuring the warmth of a duvet. It gives you an idea of how much body heat will be retained by the duvet. The higher the tog rating, the warmer the duvet. So a 4.5 tog is lighter making it perfect for the hotter seasons when you tend to get sweaty. A 13.5 or a 15 tog duvet would be ideal for the cooler months to keep you nice and snug. A 10.5 tog is somewhat in-between and is used for all seasons, whether its hot or cold. It's all down to preference as to how warm you want to be.
What makes a good duvet?
Definitely not the packaging! You need to look at the type of filling used in the duvet to determine its quality. You have the classic hollowfibre, to the microfibre to the feather and down. Don't worry, we'll explain everything for you so you understand the difference in filling to choose the perfect duvet for you.
Different types of fillings in your duvet
Our hollowfibre and microfibre duvets fall into the synthetic category often used by people who suffer from allergies and asthma. The silky soft duvet is the closest synthetic alternative to a natural down duvet giving you extra warmth and ensuring a featherweight feel. Its an affordable option so you don't have to break the bank.
Our goose feather and down duvet is a natural choice filled with long goose feathers making the duvet thermally efficient at retaining your body heat. This is an extremely luxury duvet with premium filling making the duvet soft, light and breathable. If you want extra comfort and luxury whilst sleeping, goose feather and down is the right choice for you.
Then you have the bounce back duvet which is filled with spiral fibres (spring like fibres) which will naturally bounce back to its original shape resulting in the duvet staying plump for longer. It feels nice and light on your body but its amazingly comfy and warm.
Complete the full Flame Retardant BS 7175 range;

Lobbyist repeats claim of tryst with Haley
COLUMBIA --- A South Carolina lobbyist released a sworn statement Friday reiterating his claim of a tryst with GOP gubernatorial nominee Nikki Haley.
Larry Marchant gave no proof in his one-page affidavit, which was sworn before a notary public but not filed in any court. He first made his assertion in June and said he restated it at the request of a new group of Republican activists critical of the married state representative.
Haley has denied Marchant's allegation. She has also denied claims of a 2007 affair with Will Folks, a political blogger and former spokesman for Gov. Mark Sanford, who released an affidavit earlier this week.
Her campaign called Marchant's statement worthless and accused the political group of trying to generate publicity.
Atlanta gets millions for streetcar project
ATLANTA --- Atlanta is $47 million closer to its downtown streetcar.
U.S. Rep. John Lewis told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution that the city won a federal grant worth more than half of the $70 million city officials estimate the project will cost. City officials still need an additional $5.6 million because the grant is less than what the city requested.
The streetcar line would run east-west connecting the Martin Luther King Jr. Center with Centennial Olympic Park.
Man in trouble for ride on baggage carousel
MIAMI --- A Georgia man admits it was "boneheaded" to ride the baggage claim carousel at the Miami International Airport into a secure area.
Authorities say Alpharetta resident Bradley Ray Bromelow, 40, filmed people watching him as he moved on the conveyor belt Thursday. He faces a charge of trespassing into a secured area.

CLEMSON UNIVERSITY trustees voted Friday to roll back a 7.5 percent tuition increase passed in June, aiming to avoid a state-imposed ban on construction at colleges that raise costs by more than 7 percent.

SEMO Municipal Liaison for NaNoWriMo
It is official, I am a/the Municipal Liaison for South East Missouri for National Novel Writing Month for this year! I hope I do a good job with all these new responsibilities. I think I am the only one in SEMO, but I am not 100% on that. We have announced our events on Facebook and Good Reads, and as soon as they get the calendar up on the site, I will add them to the Official NaNoWriMo site.
I am really looking forward to NaNo this year, but I am tossed up about which story I am doing this year. This happens to me every year. Soon the story will make itself clear. Even though I have been wanting to write a fantasy story, space opera is rising up in me again. Only time will tell who will win.
See you all in the furry of NaNo.
(from my HQ Blog)
My name is Charlie, but if your looking for my work, I go by C. E. Dorsett. I write scifi, fantasy, and a touch of horror. I like to play with gothic, steampunk, decopunk, epic fantasy, and wuxia. I love to tell stories and talk about books, movies, series, and music.

The Son That Former NFL Player Rae Carruth Tried To Kill Turns 18, Still Suffering From Permanent Brain Damage
The former wide receiver, who plotted the murder of his ex, Cherica Adams, is scheduled to be released from prison soon.
Kim Kardashian has never been a favorite among the intellectual elite, but the reaction of NPR listeners to her appearance on the station's popular quiz show "Wait Wait...Don't Tell Me!" is on another level of snobbery.
The reality mogul was a guest on the show, which regularly welcomes celebrities to its airwaves, and talked about baby names, fame and variety of topics. The audience, however, wasn't having it and the backlash was immediate and fierce.
Listeners threatened to cancel their memberships to the public radio network, with one listener writing, "I recently gave a small gift to my local NPR station. Had I heard your Saturday show before I made my gift, I wouldn't have donated. The Kardashians represent much of what is wrong with America today — and I listen to NPR to get AWAY from Kardashian-like garbage."
NPR's website published an article from its official ombudsman, Elizabeth Jensen, on Wednesday, in response to the outrage. Noting that her inbox was "overflowing" with hate mail over the interview, Jensen called the show "an equal opportunity offender."
Though she appeared to defend Kardashian's appearance, Jensen's statement was basically a backhanded compliment to the reality star.
"Many listeners seem willing to laugh until the comedy is turned on something that touches their own lives or sensitivities," she wrote. "I'm still not sure what to make of this week's outrage over Kardashian, who was indeed a surprising guest, given how often the show has pilloried her and her clan in the past. She wasn't a great guest — she had a couple funny lines — but she was gracious."
Hopefully NPR didn't damage too many of its listeners brain cells with the interview. Watch Kim K. respond to her haters in the video below:

Review for Bonita Valley Auto Care
MIKE T. on 06/07/2013
"High Mileage 2004 Denali"
Carlos was the service manager of my vehicle. The moment I stepped in I can see the professionalism. Bathroom was spotless, workers were courteous and were kept busy (even though boss was out training). Employees looked professional, shirts tucked in - very presentable. What also caught my eye was the establishment was monitored by the BBB and AAA; this gave me peace of mind. Carlos demonstrated excellent communication and kept me up to date on the status of my vehicle, not to mention a ride was provided in case I needed one. I had quite a bit of work done, but I can tell Carlos wanted to ensure quality over speed. The day Carlos was off, even his co workers knew exactly what was going on with my vehicle as if they were servicing it. Nowadays it's hard to find an "honest" and "knowledgeable" mechanic; I can say I have found a one - Bonita Valley Auto Care. Thanks gents!

Book Talk: Old Loyalty, New Love
Jaime Samms
I usually like Mary Calmes characters, I admit. But this is a whole new level, and it isn't just because she mentioned me, either. It's because Roman is ten kinds of awesome. And Quade is ten kinds of adorable, meathead idiot. Perfect for each other. And absolutely a hoot to read. IAt just over half way through the book, I'm getting the feeling Quade's sort of invincible, and normally, that would put me off. Except there's one thing he's completely useless at, and that's understanding his own heart. That's why he has Roman, aparently. And as for Roman, the man has more money than God. Completely unrealistic. And yet, the one thing about his life he could care less about. Which makes it much less annoying than it could have been. I'm excited to see what happens in the second half. Will do my best to actually make a second post when I get to the end of the book this time.... And also, related to nothing, really, is this:
