Lennon dismisses Everton speculation
Celtic boss Neil Lennon has played down reports linking him with becoming the next Everton manager.
• Blog: What's next for Everton?
The Toffees are on the lookout for their next manager after it was announced on Thursday that David Moyes is to take over at Manchester United on July 1 replacing the retiring Sir Alex Ferguson.
And Lennon, who has guided the Bhoys to back-to-back Scottish Premier League titles, has emerged as the bookies' favourite for the post, ahead of Wigan's Roberto Martinez and Swansea's Michael Laudrup.
However, the former Northern Ireland international insists he is ignoring the speculation and is already focusing on next season at Parkhead.
"Everton are a huge club with a huge history," Lennon told Sky Sports. "It's flattering to be linked but that's all it is, a link. All of it is speculation.
"I have a job here, I have a great job, a great set of players, a great support, so I am pretty happy here. I have a rolling contract. We're already looking at Champions League preparation and bringing in new players.
"It's not up to me if I'm ready for England, it's for other people to decide."
Wigan boss Martinez has said he will not think about any potential Everton offer until the end of the season, while Swansea manager Laudrup said he is not interested in leaving the Liberty Stadium.

Have you had a near-death experience?
Asked by Josh Board
November 24, 2009
Stu Rod
From Scripps Ranch (Entrepreneur)
I was riding my three-wheeler all day with my cousin. He hammered it, and I was trying to catch up. I got up to about 40 miles per hour, and the bearings burned out. The front wheel came off, and I went sideways and hit a ditch. The thing flipped over and landed a few feet from me. I only broke my hand, but that thing could've crushed me. I had another incident that involved a piece of tin that almost cut my head off. And another where I was late for work when it was foggy. I was driving fast and hit a school bus. Traffic was backed up, but I didn't see it until it was too late.
Steve Birkenbach
From Mira Mesa (Machinist)
I was 15, and it was after New Year's. A friend had gotten some gin, and we ended up drinking beer, whiskey, and I finished the entire fifth of gin. I was a skinny kid, too. We were walking to the store to get gum, and we almost caused an accident crossing the street. Someone then called the police, and they rushed me to the hospital. They used charcoal and pumped my stomach. After that, it was a long time before I drank again.
Dan Klausenstock
From San Diego (Engineer)
I've been close to death several times in my life. Poor judgment on my part. Once on a surfing trip on the San Francisco coast 30 years ago. It was 48-degree water. We had to paddle out, and my friend Aaron made it. I was gasping for oxygen and fighting through the pounding white water and waves. A row of huge, ice-cold mountains of water came toward me. If I panicked, I would be dead. For a moment, during the third wave, I thought it was over. I was gasping for breath and thinking of my family being at my burial. There was also a time when I was trying to land a plane on a small dirt strip in Mexico. At night.
Gina Piccolo
From Point Loma (Artist)
I had this dream that someone was stabbing me in the neck or something. It was weird because I could feel the blood gushing out and everything. And as I was laying there, I was wondering who would take care of my cats. I was okay when I woke up, so…I guess that's not coming close to dying in real life. I actually don't think I've ever had an incident where I felt my life was in danger. Sometimes I'm working on an art project, and I wonder if someone's going to come up behind me and smash my head with a hammer.
Tim Parsons
From San Diego (Manager)
I'm not sure what constitutes an answer to that. I've jumped out of planes. Wouldn't that be coming close to dying? Right up until I open the parachute. I was once mountain climbing and slipped, but that wasn't a big deal. Probably the closest I actually came to dying was when I did a ride-along with a police officer. He pulled someone over for having a taillight out. I was sitting in the car, not even paying much attention because at that point, it was getting rather boring. Gunfire erupted, and one of the bullets hit the window near my head.

Stay well in winter
It's not just illnesses you need to protect yourself from in winter.
Winter weather can bring many risks to you and your family. There's the usual winter coughs, colds and flu, but then there's also risks to your health associated with flooding and storms.
If you are normally healthy, many of the coughs, colds and minor illnesses that seem to happen more frequently during winter can be safely managed yourself. There's plenty of advice on the NHS Choices website and you can also talk to your local pharmacist.
Why is winter weather a risk to our health?
Cold temperatures have an impact on our health, but there are other risks in winter including physical injuries from slips, trips and falls.
As we get older it becomes harder for our bodies to detect how cold we are, and it takes longer to warm up which can be bad for our health. For older people in particular, the longer the exposure to the cold, the more risk of heart attacks, strokes, pneumonia, depression, worsening arthritis and increased accidents at home (associated with loss of strength and dexterity in the hands).
Here's a video about how weather can affect our health and what you can do to help.
Public Health England produces a Cold Weather Plan for England which helps to raise awareness of the harm to health from cold, and provides guidance on how to prepare for and respond to cold weather.
You can also read more about the Cold Weather Alerts which we issue on our website and send directly to social and healthcare services in England, and to Age UK. These alerts ensure that staff are fully prepared for any cold weather periods, and those who are more vulnerable to cold weather conditions are aware and prepared.
If you are normally healthy, many of the coughs, colds and minor illnesses that seem to happen more frequently during winter can be safely managed yourself. There's plenty of advice on the NHS Choices website and you can also talk to your local pharmacist.
Flu affects people in different ways. If you are healthy you will usually shake it off within a week. Flu vaccination is offered free of charge on the NHS to people who are at most at risk from the effects of flu. This is to protect them from catching flu and developing serious complications. Find out who is eligible for a free flu jab.
Contact your GP or pharmacist if you think you, or someone you care for, should be eligible for a free flu jab. There's further information about flu and the flu vaccine on the flu pages of the NHS Choices website.
Eating well in winter
It's important to make sure you eat enough in winter and hot meals and drinks will help to keep you warm. Follow our tips to keep you eating well this winter:
- Try to eat at least one hot meal each day and have hot drinks during the day.
- Include a good range of foods in your diet and aim for five portions of fruit and vegetables each day, so that you're getting plenty of nutrients and vitamins. Remember that frozen vegetables are just as good as fresh.
- If you're worried about a poor appetite, speak to your GP.
- Have a hot drink before bed and keep one in a flask by your bedside.
For more information or for your free copy of the Winter Wrapped Up guide, visit www.spreadthewarmth.org.uk or call Age UK Advice on 0800 169 6565.
Keeping yourself warm at home in winter
- Keep your hands and face warm - if they get cold they can trigger a rise in blood pressure which puts you at increased risk of a heart attack.
- Remember that several thin layers of clothing will keep you warmer than one thick layer, as the layers trap warm air.
- Wear warm clothes in bed. When very cold, wear thermal underwear, bed socks and even a hat - a lot of heat is lost through your head.
- Read more tips about keeping your house warm.
Keep moving to keep warm
It's important to stay active as this generates heat and helps to keep you warm. Try to keep moving when you're indoors, and don't sit still for more than an hour. If walking is difficult, you can do chair-based exercises. Even simply moving your arms and legs and wiggling your toes will get your circulation going.

LONDON (WXYZ) - The NFL announced Thursday the Detroit Lions will play the Atlanta Falcons in London in 2014.
Six teams will play a regular season game in London next year at Wembley Stadium:
Commissioner Roger Goodell confirmed the match-ups Thursday. The dates and times will be announced at a later date.
"We are excited for the opportunity to play on an international stage against a quality NFC opponent. It will be a different challenge for our football team; on that we fully embrace," the Lions organization said in a press release.
This will be the Lions' first international regular-season game but it's not the first time they have traveled overseas for a game. In 1993, Detroit played a preseason game as part of the American Bowl series in London against the Dallas Cowboys at Wembley Stadium. The Lions and Cowboys played to a 13-13 tie August 8, 1993.

'I-94 project will greatly improve region's traffic'
Rep. David FitzSimmons (R-Albertville) updated the St. Michael City Council about how the recently approved funding for I-94 expansion will improve regional traffic.
The council also took action regarding a new industrial development, and discussed a proposal to give loans to retailers looking to improve their facilities.
Rep. FitzSimmons noted that expanding I-94 from Rogers to St. Michael was included in the state's top 10 Corridors of Commerce projects.
He said this is great news for the area and that traffic models show the results are impressive and would greatly improve traffic in the area.
The legislator commended regional support for helping make the project approval happen, such as from the I-94 Coalition gathering support from businesses and elected officials. The council in turn thanked FitzSimmons for his leadership.
There was discussion about future expansions west of St. Michael. FitzSimmons said there are several other northwest metro projects, such as I-494 and Hwy. 610, that are scheduled for completion in the next several years. Once those projects are approved, FitzSimmons said that would likely be the time for further expansion.
In other news, community development director Marc Weigle noted the city's Economic Development Authority (EDA) approved moving forward with surveying and preliminary engineering plans for the Spaeth Industrial Development, anticipating $3,500 would be reimbursed from Municipal State Aid funds when Melby Avenue is built. The remaining $9,400 would be reimbursed to the EDA by the developer once the property is developed.
Weigle said part of the agreement is that a 70-foot easement along the east side of the development would be agreed upon for future construction of Melby Avenue.
The council unanimously approved the proposal for Quality Site Design for surveying and preliminary engineering plans for Spaeth Industrial Development at a cost of $12,900.
In further matters, community development director Weigle said the EDA discussed options for a program that would support and encourage retail businesses downtown to make improvements by discounting the interest cost of a loan for the improvements.
Weigle noted that several other area cities have such programs.
Councilor Kevin Kasel said he does not think the city should be involved with improvement of retail businesses, noting that a $3,000 savings on interest would not sway the decision for improvement. Councilor Nadine Schoen said that would be true of larger retail businesses, but for smaller ones it makes a difference and shows the city is supportive of its small businesses.
Councilor Joe Marx was skeptical and wondered if there are businesses that would take advantage of such a program or not.
Weigle said he would discuss the program with Shop Saint Michael members and bring back more specific examples of how it would work.
In other action, the council:
CONGRATULATED community development director Weigle with a certification for passing the American Institute of Certified Planners exam, the highest certification for a planner.
REACHED consensus that the proposed fix of council chamber/senior center chairs by the Krug company is acceptable so long as Krug was willing to fully replace the chairs if the fix does not resolve the issues.

By Chris Mugasha
trueVision Group in partnership with dfcu bank and the Netherlands Embassy in Uganda is searching for Uganda's best farmers. Harvest Money shall profile nominated farmers every Tuesday until September when a panel of judges shall select Uganda's best farmers. Sh150m and a fully sponsored trip to the Netherlands awaits the best farmers who will be announced in October.
For time immemorial, cotton has been predominantly grown on the foothills/low lands of Kasese district. However, this trend might become history in the region considering the innovations Bukonzo Mixed Farm Ltd is promoting on the foot hills of Rwenzori region.
Bukonzo Mixed Farm's strategy is to encourage farmers to diversify into other more reliable agricultural enterprises. To achieve the above, Bukonzo Mixed Farm is establishing plantations of coffee, mangoes, pineapples, rice and oranges, which at the same time act as demonstration gardens to other farmers in the area.
"If we can liberate the people from cotton, it will be a milestone in advancing transformation in the Rwenzori region," argues the Bukonzo Mixed Farm's director Dr. Crispus Kiyonga. "It is difficult to get a steady income from cotton unlike mangoes and other fruits, which are perennial crops," adds Kiyonga, who is also the minister for defence.
Mangoes are Kiyonga's the major project sitting on over 100 acres of land. PHOTOs/Chris Mugasha
Venturing into fruits
Bukonzo Mixed Farm picked the idea of growing fruits on a large scale after President Yoweri Museveni proposed it while on a tour in the Rwenzori region. The farm started by collecting seedlings from local farms, but later on realised they were not getting good yields.
They contacted Kawanda Research Institute for seedlings, but Kawanda could not meet the demand. "We instead multiplied the seedlings ourselves after getting training from Kawanda," Kiyonga explains. For pineapples, the farm ferried seedlings from Kayunga district. Currently, farmers from the neighbouring districts like Kamwenge and Kyegegwa are getting planting materials from Bukonzo Mixed Farm.
Size of land holding
Bukonzo Mixed Farm's projects lie on over 279 acres of land located in various places.In Kinyamaseke in Mukunyu sub-county, the farm sits on 150 acres. It operates on 104 acres of land in Rugendabara in Kicwamba sub-county, while in Mubuku Irrigation Scheme, 25 acres are under utilisation. Kiyonga and other farmers had earlier started engaging in dairy farming, but when the Allied Democratic Forces rebels attacked the region in the late 1990s, they sold off the cows, leaving the land idle.
Modern farming practices
The volcanic soils in the foot hills of the Mt. Rwenzori are fertile, but Kiyonga says, "You have to translate that potential (fertility) into reality, which needs technology and better farming methods." That is why they apply various fertilisers to maintain the fertility of the soils.
They also run a poultry enterprise from which they get farm yard manure, which they apply in the gardens to boost production. "Every season, the soils lose nutrients. So it is better to add fertilisers to keep it productive," explains Alice Kiyonga, a director at the farm. "We grow mangoes and rice under the Mubuku Irrigation Scheme.
In Kinyamaseke, we have constructed a 150,000-litre rain water harvesting tank to so that we can irrigate during drought," Alice adds. Bukonzo Mixed Farm employs experts who advise them on issues like integrated pest management and identification of diseases and treatment.
Value addition/post-harvest management
Kiyonga says they are processing some of the fruits into juice. They transport their produce from Kasese to the Uganda Industrial Research Institute (UIRI) in Kampala for processing. UIRI is training them (Bukonzo Mixed Farm) how to add value to their fruits as they prepare to set up their own processing factory in Kasese.Their juice, under the brand Nzori, is already on the market, especially in Kampala supermarkets.
Market plan
They are not worried about where to sell the produce since there is ready market at Kinyamaseke trading centre, where women, who operate stalls along the Kasese-Bwera (the Uganda-DRC boarder), buy their produce from Bukonzo Mixed Farm's gardens.
"Our local market is rich enough as we improve standards to begin exporting," Kiyonga says. "With the East African Community, the prospects are good because we can sell to other member countries," a confident Kiyonga asserts. They also supply mangoes to major towns.
Alice Kiyonga uses chicken droppings as manure in her gardens to boost production
Income/record keeping
Bukonzo Mixed Farm has audited accounts. However, records indicate that they have not yet made profits since all the money is reinvested, according to the manager, Nyensio Bwambale. Also, not all the trees have matured.
They are, however, confident that in the next two years the situation is going to change. "Our projection is to earn sh100m from mangoes every year, starting next year.
We hope to earn sh50,000 per tree per year from the 20,000 mango trees." Twenty million shillings will cover the costs every month. Their projection from pineapple earnings is sh5m from an acre every two seasons.
Alice Kiyonga addressing some of the out-growers in Kasese
Conservation practices
"We plant fruits instead of trees to conserve the environment," Kiyonga says. They also have outgrowers to increase production of fruits in the district.
Social impact
Bukonzo Mixed Farm employs over 200 people directly."I have acquired all my assets through Bukonzo Mixed Farm, which I have been working with for the 15 years," testifies Vincent Tibamwenda, a father of five children. "I have moved from a grass-thatched house to an iron-roofed house," he adds.
The traders who have stalls at Kinyamaseke trading centre say they no longer incur expenses of travelling long distances to get produce. Hydro electricity has also been extended to Kinyamaseke communities as a result of Bukonzo Mixed Farm. Farmers visit the farm's projects to learn.

I had a full tummy tuck with muscle suturing 5 years ago. I am a fitness/pilates instructor and do vigorous core work 4 days a week. The past few months I have noticed a pulling sensation about an inch away from the umbilical area especially while doing oblique work. It feels like there is a hard knot under the skin rubbing and causing irritation. Is this normal and could a suture knot do this if the muscle was put under a lot of pressure? Will this subside on its own with time?
Could a Suture Knot Cause Irritation 5 Years Post Tummy Tuck?
Doctor Answers 3
suture knot cause irritation 5 years post tummy tuck
Very rare but even I have seen such an issue. Treatment is antibiotics and possible surgical exploration. Seek in person evaluation ASAP. From MIAMI
Hard Knot After Tummy Tuck
Most commonly the abdominal wall muscles, the rectus muscles, are repaired with permanent sutures. Although usually the stitich is started at the pubis bone occasionally some surgeons use two sutures and one can be tied near the belly button. This is was you're probably feeling. It can be removed via the umbilical incisio but it might need to be done in an operating room.
Palpable permanent suture from Tummy tuck
This certainly could be a suture knot because this is a common location for placement of permanent sutures. I do not feel that this will necessarily improve. This ultimately may require removal

GOODYEAR, Ariz. — As the Reds were starting spring training, pitcher Kip Wells asked first baseman Joey Votto, "Are you happy?"
It's a simple question that sums up Votto's biggest challenge. Last season, he missed 21 games with depression and anxiety related to his father's death.
Votto also missed several games with dizziness and headaches caused by an ear infection but still led the team in most offensive categories and finished fourth in the NL in on-base percentage (.414) and fifth in slugging percentage (.567).
Votto, 26, said he is doing much better.
"I feel like I'm progressing, and I feel like things are getting better," he said. "I'm a long way away from where I was last year. But last year was tough, and last year's last year. I'm here now, and I'm doing better. That's all that matters."
Votto doesn't avoid talking about his struggle with depression but tries not to dwell on it.
"I'd really like for it to be part of my past and forget about it," he said. "Not only is that the healthiest way, you don't need to rehash it because it's not good for it."
His problems started in May, when an inner-ear infection caused dizziness and gave him a scare. Doctors initially weren't sure what was causing the problem and put him through a battery of tests. He missed 12 starts because of the dizziness, which was aggravated by plane travel.
In June, he went on the disabled list to deal with his anxiety and depression. He talked to the team about it when he returned.
"The only one who can truly understand that is him," former Rays outfielder Jonny Gomes said. "Even if you went through something on your own, it's still different.
"In this game, with his skills, he's going to have a long career. He knew, from Day 1, that we had his back. He addressed the team. He's a strong kid."
A'S PITCHER RESTING: A's right-hander Justin Duchscherer is in camp and resting after a procedure Tuesday to relieve discomfort in his lower back.
"I needed quite a bit of sedation," Duchscherer said. "They couldn't get me under enough Monday, that's why I had to wait until (Tuesday). They gave me some and it didn't work, so they gave me more and then I woke up and we were done."
VLAD TO PLAY FIELD: Vladimir Guerrero will do more than be the Rangers' DH this season. Manager Ron Washington said he plans to use the slugger in rightfield from time to time because "that's what he wants to do. We want to keep him happy."
In other Rangers news, centerfielder Josh Hamilton, the former Rays prospect, left morning workouts after bruising his shoulder and is day-to-day.
INDIANS: First baseman Russell Branyan finalized a one-year, $2 million contract that brings the slugger back to the town where he started his career. He has played for eight teams in a 12-year career, including the Rays for part of the 2006 season.
MARINERS: Left-hander Cliff Lee completed his first spring bullpen session without any problems with his left foot, which needed surgery almost three weeks ago to remove a bone spur.
METS: Catcher Rod Barajas and the team finalized a $500,000, one-year contract.
NATIONALS: Right-hander Livan Hernandez signed a minor-league contract and will compete for a spot in the rotation in his third go-round with the team.
PADRES: First baseman Adrian Gonzalez said he won't sacrifice money for security the next time his contract ends. Gonzalez, who has one year left on his deal with a team option for 2011, said he'll look for "fair value" the next time he hits the market.

With OpenGL 3.2, we use VAOs and shaders, and the result is all too often that the students get a blank screen, or a crash, even on the very first exercises. I have to question whether that is really the right way to teach CG.
We still have taken the step, I have rewritten my lectures, labs and course book to be 100% OpenGL 3.2, and most students seem to like the move. So far so good, so I am not trying to stay with the old way. But I must evaluate what we did, and I am questioning how to get started in a really smooth and nice way. There is room for improvement.
To me it is totally obvious, because formats like PICT, EMF and PDF are both, they work exactly like display lists when in memory, but can also be on disk. They are all collections of graphics commands. Display lists are the only way I know to do the in-memory part in OpenGL, and if I could extract the contents it could (with some effort and maybe some limitations) be translated to any of these file formats.Please, please explain to me how supporting display lists, which is basically a collection of GL commands that can be executed together at an arbitrary point of run-time, is equal to supporting a totally unrelated, platform dependent graphics file format. I really don't get it.
I ran into this when translating graphics code relying on metafiles both for in-memory recording of graphics sequences as well as storage. I want to make an OpenGL layer, and with display lists I have a part of it. I suppose the whole problem has to be solved on a higher level (sounds pretty complex), but I fear that I will lose performance.

He has won his last two events, is back on top of the world rankings and is rated a 5/1 favourite to make it three wins in succession with a second US PGA Championship title at Valhalla this week.
But Rory McIlroy will not be paying any attention to the hype surrounding his brilliant run of form, which saw him claim the Open Championship at Royal Liverpool and follow that with a first World Golf Championship victory in the Bridgestone Invitational.
The 25-year-old's stellar play at Firestone Country Club had Ryder Cup captain Paul McGinley eulogising about the "best exhibition of driving I have ever seen" and predicting McIlroy could be on his way to dominating the game as Tiger Woods did in his prime.
And with doubts increasing over Woods' longevity after he pulled out of the Bridgestone midway through the final round with more back trouble, McGinley is not the only one talking about the start of 'Rory's era'.
"I don't really know how to answer that," McIlroy told his pre-tournament press conference at Valhalla. "Of course I've heard it and I've read it.
"Sometimes I feel that people are too quick to jump to conclusions and jump on the bandwagon and jump on certain things.
"I've had a great run of golf and I've played well over the past few months. I said at the start of the year that golf was looking for someone to put their hand up and become one of the dominant players in the game.
"I felt like I had the ability to do that and it's just nice to be able to win a few tournaments and get back to where I feel like I should be, which is near the top of the world rankings and competing in majors and winning golf tournaments.
"I'm not necessarily sure you can call that an era or the start of an era, but I'm just really happy with where my golf game is at the minute and I just want to try and continue that for as long as possible.
"People can say what they want to say, that's fine. But I can't read too much into it.I just need to continue to practice hard and play well and try not to read too much of the stuff that's being written, because if you read everything that was being written, I'd turn up at the first tee on Thursday thinking I'd already won the tournament."
That last comment was said with a smile and McIlroy added: "I don't think it's productive at all to read anything about yourself. I try not to. Obviously it's hard to stay away from everything, but I try to limit it as much as I can for sure."

Akron shortstop Erin Pond, whose .510 batting average led Keystone to the Division II state championship in 2012, is transferring to Penn State.
Pond, a sophomore, started all 43 games as the Zips went 27-16 this season, 12-6 in the Mid-American Conference. She batted .278 with four doubles, 10 RBIs and 13 stolen bases in 15 attempts.
As the school year progressed, she decided it was time for a change.
"I left Akron in good standing academically and athletically, and I adore the people and the university," Pond said. "But you're dealt certain cards and sometimes you have to make certain decisions."
She said she started to make inquiries about other schools and their softball programs.
"I got a call from a Penn State assistant," Pond said. "So I visited the campus, spent the night and decided it was the right fit."
She said Zips coach Julie Jones did not stand in her way.
"Julie is a good person and a very understanding person," she said. "You can give her credit for the success of their program. I had a good relationship with Julie and my teammates. She and a lot of hard work helped get my batting average up."
Pond's decision to transfer to a larger school is not without precedent in the area. Tess Sito, who led Elyria to the 2009 Division I state title, played two years at Cleveland State before transferring to Georgia for her junior and senior seasons.
In 2012, Pond led the Wildcats to a 32-0 record. She hit 11 doubles, a team-best five triples and nine home runs. She drove in 47 runs, stole 13 bases and finished the year with an on-base percentage of .598. She was also chosen Player of the Year by the Lorain County Softball Coaches Association.
At Penn State, she will play for second-year coach Amanda Lehotak. The Nittany Lions were 14-35 (5-18 Big Ten) this year.

Efflorescence of basement walls
Our house was built in the mid 1940's. My husband says the basement was poured with dirty sand. We have pretty well sealed and stabilized the effloresce on the outside above ground (except in spots) with a Thorocrete product, but the inside walls have a lot of efflorescence. Does anyone have ideas on how to seal the inside walls without damage to the integrity of the walls? Is there any product like a laminate that we could apply that would stay and would stop the action? Or other products to apply? (I'm aware the outside below grade should be sealed, but I'm still not sure it would stop the inside efflorescence.)
NOT dealing with the problem will harm the integrity of the foundation more as time goes by.
What is efflorescence?
"The root problem of efflorescence is the moisture which carries the efflorescence to the surface. Moisture is a carrying agent that transports efflorescence through the concrete, thereby destroying concrete and steel inside the concrete which hold it together. "
There are A LOT of products on the market to help with this problem, some professional, some do it yourself. Research and talking to professionals will help you look for the proper solution for you. Checking the grade of your property and the downspouts around the home is #1. The less water towards the house itself the less efflorescence will occur. There are so much information on this on the internet that all you need to do is type in efflorescence into any search engine and you will not only find company profiles but products galore.
Of course attacking the source of efflorescence should be your main concern which is from the outside not the inside. So if you seal the outside below grade like you have above grade you will solve the interior problem and its cause. You will however ALSO need to clean the interior and seal those also.
A home that old has to be getting salts from somewhere and most likely it is from you ground water outside. Hope some of this helps.
Foundation masonry seepage
House is settling and the foundation masonry block under stairs going down to first level seeps during hard rain..Have resealed and put waterproof sealant on it..One year later ..seeped some more but not much..have put more UGL sealant on it ..what can I use as an overcoat so that this does not occur again??
I don't think you can put anything better on to seal it. If it settles more, a crack will open up again. You can make sure you are keeping as much water away from the house as possible. Make sure all the water off your roof is collected and directed away with gutters/downspouts and splash blocks or better yet pipe it away from the house by burying some drain pipe to lead it away.
Cutting foundation
We have a large crawl space/storage space in back of our garage and under our house. We'd like to use the space more, but now we need to crawl through a small 3 x 3 door to do so. We want to make a full-size door, but would need to cut through the foundation and re-route some gas pipes around the new opening to do so. Does anyone know if this is possible? Is it okay to cut into the foundation? Any idea of cost involved?
Sure it's possible to do what you say. Since you already have a 3-foot wide opening, all you'd be doing is making the doorway higher (or lower) so that you don't have to crawl through it. The only thing you'd have to worry about is that the frame above the door (presumably part of the sill) is adequately supported. You shouldn't take out any wood, just concrete. You can do that yourself by renting a masonry saw and cutting right through the concrete block -- if it's block. If it's solid concrete, it's harder and messier, and you'll wear out more blades. If you want to hire someone to do the work, expect to pay a couple of hundred dollars. The work is dirty, dusty, noisy, and generally unpleasant. That, along with the saw blades, is what you'll be paying for because it doesn't take that much skill to do it.
As for the gas lines, they can be re-routed just like water lines -- easier, in fact, because they are more flexible. Sorry, don't know the cost.

This recipe is dedicated to Chef Sanjeev Kapoor. Most Indian grocers now sell golgappas, also called pani puris, which are fried flour balloons. You poke a hole in the center of one and push a filling in. Golgappas are a popular street food in India; in this recipe they are served as a tapa.
If you cannot find golgappas, you can use the tortilla chips that look like small scoops. Both the filling and the cold soup can be made up to two days in advance. You will also need 20 shot glasses for this recipe.
So how do you eat these delights? Pop the golgappa in your mouth and then drink the soup (as you would eat a tapa with a glass of wine).–Monica Bhide
Hot Shots Recipe
- Quick Glance
- Makes 20 shots
- For the filling
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon black mustard seeds
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon red chile powder or red chile flakes
- 1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 1 pound shrimp, peeled, deveined, and diced
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- Salt
- For the soup
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- Pinch of asafetida (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon black mustard seeds
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1/8 teaspoon fenugreek seeds
- 10 fresh curry leaves
- 2 cups buttermilk (either low-fat or full-fat)
- 1 garlic clove
- 1/8 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 20 large store-bought golgappas
- To make the filling
- 1. In a skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. When the oil begins to shimmer add the mustard seeds.
- 2. As the seeds begin to sizzle, add the garlic. Saute for a few seconds, until the garlic begins to change color.
- 3. Add the red chile, turmeric, and shrimp, and cook for 2 minutes or just until the shrimp are no longer translucent. Do not overcook the shrimp or they will become rubbery.
- 4. Add the lemon juice and salt to taste. Mix well, remove from the heat, and set aside.
- Make the soup
- 5. In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, heat the oil until it shimmers and then add the asafetida (if using), mustard, cumin, and fenugreek seeds, and the curry leaves. Cook, stirring frequently, for a few seconds, until the seeds begin to splutter. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature.
- 6. Pour the buttermilk into a blender. Add the spice mixture, the garlic, turmeric, and salt.
- 7. Blend until the mixture is fairly smooth. There will be a few tiny pieces of curry leaves—this is fine.
- 8. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or until cold.
- 9. Pour 2 tablespoons of the soup into each shot glass. Fill each golgappa with about 2 teaspoons of the filling. Place a golgappa on top of a shot glass and serve.

Have You Seen This? World's first underwater band
Posted June 5, 2016
UNDERWATER — Sometimes all a band needs is some kind of novelty that helps it stand out. KISS utilized elaborate costumes and Twisted Sister, well, it managed to stand out as well.
I even tried this with a really terrible band I was a part of in college. And believe me, we were terrible. But we thought that we could distract people from our lack of musical skills by finding an animatronic bear to play the drums. We changed the band's name to 4 Guys, a Bear, And Meg. Because we had four guys, one bear and a girl named Meg. Well, we couldn't afford the bear, and our dreams of stardom went down with our lack of musical knowledge.
This failed experiment is the first thing that came to mind when I saw this video of the band AquaSonic. This band plays underwater in giant aquariums and I thought to myself, "They must be terrible and that's why they have a gimmick." Turns out they're not terrible, but just happen to have a gimmick.
This video is weird and the amount of fingers on glass seems excessive, but its weirdness is overpowered by its uniqueness.
Enjoy this video of AquaSonic while I search eBay for an animatronic bear. I'm going to make this work.

This week, in between surgery ("This hospital jello is well-known throughout the entire VA system." "Really?" "No, not really.") and refereeing ("Great job. You just cost us the game. You suck."), I found time to actually complete our taxes for 2012.
My week just went from bad to worse.
To quote myself, "I might be dumb, but I'm not stupid."
Well, I suppose that's true most of the time, except when it comes to figuring out our taxes or, more appropriately, how much in taxes we should be deducting from paychecks throughout the year. No matter how hard I try, I seem to screw it up. For the past several years, we've consistently been required to write the IRS a check by April 15th.
Not a lot of fun.
And to make matters worse, I have had to write the State of California a check for the past few years, as well.
It's known as "The Full Monty" of taxation in our house.
Now I'm not about to launch into a rant regarding taxes in this country, government inefficiencies, and the looming Sequestration.
Far from it.
I have travelled to many countries around the world, and in my very simple way of looking at things, I believe we take an awful lot for granted here, much of which is (I think) paid for through taxes.
Maybe not, but that's how I rationalize it all.
I suspect I have a relatively complicated tax situation compared to many. But to be honest, I've been using TurboTax for longer than a decade, and it makes everything relatively painless; except the bottom line, of course.
Figuring out taxes online is almost too easy, I suspect. Audit defense? Sure. It's only another thirty bucks. Convenience fee for using a credit card to pay my tax bill? Why not? I'm already getting screwed here anyway — I might as well get some airline miles out of the deal, right?
And so it goes.
It doesn't seem all that long ago when I was able to use a 1040EZ to file. In reality, it was a long time ago, back when I used to complete my taxes using an actual pencil and paper.
And the more I think about it, the more I realize I don't do much figuring on paper at all anymore. For instance, I used to spend literally hours and hours trying to balance the checkbook. It was a task made much more difficult because my wife and I shared the same register. It was primarily a painful effort, but I always fervently hoped for the Monopoly-inspired "Bank Error in Your Favor" — wishful thinking that we made some kind of mathematical mistake that would result in hundreds of dollars of "found money."
More typically I would discover we had forty or so dollars less than what we thought.
If I follow my own steps back to college when I was really, really poor, not being able to balance my checking account became a matter of life and, well, eating on the weekends. I used to drive myself nuts trying to figure out why I couldn't reconcile the numbers. And having two or three "extra" dollars meant at least one meal at McDonald's — quite a treat for me then. The dining hall was closed on Saturday and Sunday, so my options were limited and mainly hotplate driven.
Meanwhile, jumping out of the "Way-Back Machine" and focusing on today, I recognize it has now been years — yes, years, since I've even tried to balance our checking account. When our monthly statement arrives in the mail (we don't have electronic delivery, it seems), I simply hand it to my wife, as I do with all of our bills these days. You see, I turned this crap over to her many moons ago.
Quite frankly, I don't know if she takes the time to balance it, and I guess I don't care. I feel like we have spent much of our adult lives pinching pennies at every opportunity, and as long as we pay the mortgage, invest in the future, contribute to charity, and take care of our other recurring costs, I don't know how figuring out the bank account to the last penny makes much of a difference in the quality of our lives now.
That might change, however, if I lose my job and we find ourselves retracing our steps from thirty years ago. But at least I can take some consolation that recycling bottles pays better these days than it did in 1980.
I can also dream really big and hope that Daughter will become an internationally famous author, making millions of dollars, and remembering to support Mom and Dad once she makes it into Oprah's Book Club.
Then, again, I think the focus on cats severely limits her potential audience. I suppose we'll have to wait and see.
And so, at the end of the day, we will continue to exercise Plan C — lottery tickets.
Filling in those little ovals on the pick sheet sure beats balancing the checkbook any day!
– Dad

Galápagos Album: Of course there are penguins at the equator!
#1 Chris Swanson September 17, 2008
I want a pet penguin I can train to be my valet. I know this won't ever happen, but I can dream, damn it! I CAN DREAM! 🙂
#2 Randy September 17, 2008
Most of your penguins are from warm regions. I worked with penguins for 4 years and they ARE NOT HAPPY FEET!!!! Smelly little slapping, snapping critters. Instaed of a valet train one as a guard dog. Other than that they were great to work with!
#3 Richard Harris September 17, 2008
Of course it's a penguin. It doesn't look a bit like a feckin' nun.

Off Topic, but relates to your SF movie post of September 9.
The Fly, short story and two movie versions has now become an opera. I went last night and I liked it.
#6 Glen Davidson September 17, 2008
Most of your penguins are from warm regions.
Most species, but I don't know if that's true for total numbers of individuals.
That's areas with warm air temperatures, by the way, not warm water temperatures. Penguins are found where water is cold.

One penguin but rather a lot of crabs (one looking as though it had very boggly eyes).

#10 Craig Helfgott September 17, 2008
I once heard a very funny, but probably apocryphal, penguin story. It seems this guy was studying penguins (in Antarctica), and specifically was studying the ticks and lice that live on them.
Very difficult to collect ticks from a penguin. In fact, the easiest way of doing so is to get a trash bag, put some flea powder in it, drop a penguin in, and shake for about a minute. Then you take your penguin out and let it go. Obviously, the penguins were not too pleased by this process. The released penguin would stand there in shock for a while, then waddle furiously after the perpetrator of this indignity. So eventually this guy wound up with a horde of a hundred angry penguins surrounding his tent/trailer/whatever, warking day and night.

anyone recall what the current theory is as to why penguins aren't found in the Arctic?

Ooh! Ooh! I know this one! It's because God is tilting the earth!
#20 Mike the Englishman September 17, 2008
Until quite recently, the Arctic had its own very penguin-like denizen, the Great Auk.
I used to be one of those. It's true. I was a Great Auk in a school play at the age of 8 or so.
#21 Darth Wader September 17, 2008
Psh… don't be dense. Its because when Noah was dropping all the different species in the different continents he ran out of penguins before he got to the arctic. The arctic was the last stop. Thats why polar bears are white, they just got pale from too much time below deck.
In accordance with Poe's Law I am adding this happy face so yall know I am joking 🙂
#22 Lilly de Lure September 18, 2008
Ichthyic said:

IIRC current thinking suggests that it would be rather hard for large flightless birds to avoid ending up inside a hungry Polar Bear for very long so, although there are several arctic bird species that fill the same niche as penguins do, all of them have retained the ability to fly.
Basic biogeography however has not stopped the Norwegian army from adopting and recently knighting one that currently resides at Edinburgh Zoo.
#23 Sili September 18, 2008
Would it be horribly wrong to start a collection to get the North Pole populated with penguins?
I thought Michelle said "lost" because it's all alone.
#24 amphiox September 18, 2008
Did not the Great Auks once essentially occupy the penguin niche in the arctic, polar bears notwithstanding?
Which is to say that if a population of penguins managed to migrate to the arctic, or were transplanted there by some mad ecologist, would they not have at least some chance of successfully establishing themselves there?

PEREIRA, Vinícius Oliveira de Moura et al. Use of medicines by individuals with hypertension and diabetes in municipalities covered by the Pharmacy Network in Minas Gerais State, Brazil. Cad. Saúde Pública [online]. 2012, vol.28, n.8, pp.1546-1558. ISSN 1678-4464. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0102-311X2012000800013.
This article analyzes the use of medicines by individuals with hypertension and/or diabetes mellitus who received their medication through a public network of pharmacies, with a particular emphasis on gender differences. During the first two months of 2010, individuals with hypertension and/or diabetes were interviewed in half of the 64 municipalities (counties) participating in the Minas Gerais Pharmacy Network. Mean age of the 4,777 interviewees was 60.9 years, which may have contributed to the high mean number of medicines used (4.0 among women and 3.5 among men). The most frequently used drugs were those acting on the cardiovascular system (56.3%), alimentary tract and metabolism (14.9%), and nervous system (13.8%), consistent with the sample's epidemiological profile. Women and more elderly individuals tended to use more medicines. The findings show high expenditures on medicines by the interviewees and suggest the design of educational activities targeting rational use of medication.

Ever since Monday Night RAW went to three hours beginning with the historic 1000th episode on Monday, July 23, 2012, I was very excited. It meant more matches with more Superstars, or so I thought.
Fast forward to November: a typical episode of Monday Night RAW features more focus on social media (Twitter, Tout, and Facebook), in-ring promos,
A week after a memorable 1000th episode of Monday Night RAW which saw appearances by many WWE legends as well as a shocking ending, the 1001st episode of RAW will no doubt be equally exciting.
And so without further delay, here's what to expect:
Yep, you got that right. CM Punk is expected to explain why he attacked The Rock during his WWE Championship
During the "Attitude Era," the Divas of the WWE at the time consisted of beautiful but very talented wrestlers that included the likes of Trish Stratus, Lita, Sable, and many others.
However as the likes of Stratus and Lita retired from the ring, a new kind of Diva emerged. When Kelly Kelly made her WWE debut back in 2006, her glamorous looks and cheerful personality churned

Tel Aviv (Aug. 13)
The incumbent Likud team heading the government has gained support among the public since the elections last month, according to a public opinion poll published in the Jerusalem Post.
Premier Menachem Begin's popularity was 45.3 percent just before the difficult coalition agreement was reached last week (up from 43.7 percent just before the elections), while his runner-up was Yitzhak Rabin (15.0 percent) followed by Shimon Peres (10.4 percent). Ariel Sharon received 39.5 percent as Defense Minister, followed by Rabin with 14.2 and Haim Barlev with 8.8 percent.
Yitzhak Shamir narrowly led Abba Eban by 27.3 to 23.3 percent, as choice for Foreign Minister, while Yoram Aridor received 35.9 percent as Finance Minister, against 16.8 percent for Labor's candidate Haim Ben-Shachar.

text: I already posted this, but I wanted to go ahead and create a topic so people can see it. Its my team and I will cry if I want to. To all the fans out there who think that all the teams problems are a result of the complaining fans, To all the fans out there who think that if you complaing about the team, you aren't a true fan, To all the fans out there who complain about complainers, To all the fans out there continuously making excuses for the team, Please stop! Let me get one thing straight into your head--The Texans are AWFUL! We would not be watching the games, buying the tickets, posting on messageboards, buying the jerseys if WE WEREN'T FANS. It takes a true fan to continue to watch the games and complain on the messageboards when the team is this bad. If we weren't fans, we would have quit caring long ago. Sure you can tell me that all those things don't make a fan, and its only the ones who believe in the team from day 1 even when they are doing awful that are the real fans, but guess what, I don't care! This team sucks right now, and if you still "believe" in the them and want to condemn me for not believing in them right now than thats fine. If they turn it around, I'll be ecstatic. But until I see SOME sign of hope, I will continue to believe they suck. Heres how I feel --- If you still check this messageboard, attend games, cheer for the Texans after 5 years of sucking with no end in sight, you are a real fan, and don't let the "super" fans on their soapboxes get you down! Go Texans! PS: I realize that I'm effectively complaining about people complaining about people complaining

Last week, IPPF launched their second Scorecard on the World Bank's Reproductive Health Action Plan (RHAP). Don't look for an actual score: IPPF used a narrative evaluation (essentially a Pass/Fail system). The Bank passed, barely.
The Bank, unsurprisingly, thinks they deserve higher marks. They're scrambling to paint a rosier picture of their achievements in reproductive health, releasing their own progress report earlier this month.

LJ DIY "insta-trunk" PDF plans
I have been looking high and low for some and insta-trunk for my LJ and came up empty handed, then I took a look at the boards and it turns out I'm not the only one who is after one. I went though the trouble of designing one, so I figured I would share the plans if there is anyone else out there who wants to make one. I'm using checker plate aluminum, but you could use plywood or steel and it would work just as well. I wanted a continuous bed look, so it extends the full length of tub, as opposed to stopping at the wheel wells like other designs I have seen. For security I am going to used a threaded chain link with lock tight secured to the baby seat floor attachment points, which will allow me to remove it if I have to, but will be enough to stop random thieves...unless they have a crescent wrench and are smart enough to flip the seat down.I will also rivit an alum. angle to the rear door so that when it is closed the trunk can't be lifted. This will allow the trunk to be secure, but it wont have to be screwed into the tub at all. I will post photos when it is done. This can be modified to suit a TJ as well. Let me know if you have any questions.
And with the off cuts I made some bumper caps!
crap, I can't seem to post PDFs...any one want to help me out with this?
Post a link to an external site?
would google docs work?
Interested in seeing these plans....I've been wanting to build one but been busy working on some tube fenders.
Never mind...I'm a new member and I have to post 30 photos before you will be able to see them...that might take a while. If you want to plans just PM me and I will email them to you.
Try Google docs, or you may be able to convert it to a .tiff file to post on any image hosting site. If you don't have the ability to do that, you can send it to me and I can do it for you.
I think I got it figured out...Sorry for the rapid posts!
Ok, that seems to work. Can someone confirm for me? I have 1:1s of all the cut outs as well.
I should also mention that you have to remove your windows/hard top to get this in, and it might prove to me a major pain in the butt, but I was able to work in a cardboard template with only a few curses. :D
That works, I can access it.
Looks pretty good. There's no vertical height on the rear (I think?) section, though. It shows how tall the bottom part (wheel well) is, but nothing for the total height.
I was thinking about doing something similar to this, with a front panel that locks as well. My tailgate lock doesn't always like to cooperate with me, so I would need a way to secure the box and it's contents.
The overall height is 12 1/2". I will amend the drawing when I get a chance.
I never labeled the drawings because I didn't really plan on showing anyone, but the top is the plan view (looking from the top) and the one on the bottom is the elevation (looking from the back of the jeep. The overall height is 12 1/2"
You could add a piano hinge and another 12x32" plate with a hasp to the floor if you dont want to rely on the gate for security, the only issue I see with this is the gate latch pin, but you can just notch the plate.
I updated the drawings and put the link on the first post. I am going to build it today and will post pictures
I've been planning something like this but will go all the way over the rear cargo area (I don't run a rear seat). I plan to bolt the top to the wheel wells and have some tie downs on top of it.

JOHN Taylor says London Welsh are planning for the future in the Aviva Premiership – not just one season.
The club's managing director, who is a former British Lion, knows they will find it tough against sides packed with internationals.
He stressed: "We are very aware that statistics say we are probably going to struggle.
"We are very confident that we can cause a few shocks.
"We certainly aim to be there the season after next as well.
"We are not just up for the ride. We are planning for a future in the Premiership."
Welsh only secured promotion after winning an appeal in June, so have been playing catch-up since then.
Taylor said: "Lyn Jones summed it up a little while back. He said we are four months behind everyone else and probably four years behind Leicester.
"It is not an ideal situation when you don't know you are going up at the end of May.
"It was actually the end of June before we could really be certain and make the sort of preparations that we wanted.
"We know that that was the situation. We are not bleating. That came with the territory."
Taylor sees Exeter, who have shone after being promoted to the Premiership in 2010, as the model for Welsh to follow.
He said: "Exeter managed to do it and we are obviously hoping to do an Exeter.
"We have been working our butts off to get ready."
Welsh will have a small staff doing community and development work in Oxord.
Taylor added: "We have been working very hard on creating a new fanbase up in Oxford.
"We are very excited by the response."

Cocientes de localizaci�n mediante una doble parametrizaci�n
It is relatively common to use location quotients (LQ) in the elaboration of regional (or sub-national) input-output tables (IOT). In the application of this kind of methodology, there appear two simultaneous corrections of the intermediate consumption matrix (one by rows and another by columns). A typical formula for this purpose is the Flegg Location Quotient (FLQ). However, it presents some rigidity since it works only with a single parameter that affects the logarithmic smoothing of the output (employment or value added) weight of the regional totals. This applies the same treatment to all the possible estimations, essentially derived from the interindustry quotients (CILQ). The modified or augmented FLQ formula (AFLQ) uses the same condition, with the only difference that it includes a correction by buying sectors. In this paper, we present an alternative formulation for LQ characterized by a double- parameterization process with a potential smoothing function. Contrasting with the FLQ formula, this methodology is more flexible because it guarantees a specific treatment in each row and column. Finally, in order to show the applicability of the method, an estimation of the Spanish symmetric IOT for 2005 from the EA17 table is produced and subsequently contrasted with the corresponding Spanish IOT elaborated by Eurostat.
