Lunchtime! Packable palate-friendly ideas
Curried chicken salad with cashews
Cook the curry powder first in a little hot oil and it mellows the spice. The curry is subtle here. You can make it school-bus yellow, if you like, by adding much more. Lots of crunch from celery and cashews, juicy surprises from grapes, bite from red onion. (Recipe) Next
Lentil soup
Start with a thick center-cut pork chop and brown it with vegetables before adding lentils. It was a pretty good trick. That little chop went a long way to giving the soup flavor. You do need chicken stock, however, since one chop can't flavor the entire pot. Once the soup is done, take the chop out, cut up the meat, and return it to the lentil mixture. (Recipe) Next
Broiled chicken salad with toasted walnuts and orange dressing
Start with broiled chicken and pull the meat off the bones, along with some of that succulent skin. In goes toasted walnuts, red grapes, lots of celery and scallions, and a simple vinaigrette made with freshly squeezed orange juice. (Recipe) Next
Tomatoes stuffed with tuna
Take cooked tuna steaks and mix them with capers, onions, parsley, and olive oil to create a sophisticated salad. Take advantage of glorious native tomatoes that offer edible bowls in bright colors. Eat the salad right away, or refrigerate it for a couple of hours to allow the flavors to mellow. Tuck a thick slice of toasted baguette under each tomato and enjoy. (Recipe) Next
Farro with sugar snap peas and white beans
Farro may be the oldest grain, but in the home pantry, it's one of the newest additions. Similar to the wheatberry, farro offers a nutty taste with a chewy texture. This Italian export pairs well with any seasonal vegetable to create a vitamin-rich, filling main course or light side dish. (Recipe) Next
Grilled zucchini and onion po'boys with tomatoes and garlic remoulade
For a vegetarian version of the Cajun classic po'boy, grill zucchini and onions and tuck them into a baguette with remoulade, a mayonnaise-based sauce spiked with hot sauce. Slice the squash into long, thick planks so that every bite is filled with the perfect combo of filling and bread. (Recipe) Next
Kale and white bean salad with chickpeas
Lacinato kale, also known as Tuscan, dinosaur, or black kale, has a hearty texture often tenderized with long cooking times. For salads, remove the hard, center vein and thinly slice the leaves. The bumpy surface traps dirt and sand so be sure to wash well. Toss greens with seasoned white beans and serve at room temperature. (Recipe) Back to the beginning

"Fellow art lovers will agree... I felt like these shoes literally walked out of a painting! They are even more beautiful in person. Very modern and unique. True to size and comfy to boot. I bought an 8 and normally wear between a 7.5 and an 8. They fit perfectly."

Pretty shoe ... Looks Not A Good Design
"I got the pink color and from far away this looks really good. Up close the shoe sags/buckles in places and does not move with my foot. I decided to keep is since it is comfortable but I will not wear it a lot."

"This sandal is comfortable but the fit is horrible. My usual size 8.5 had my heel hanging over a little too much so I tried the size 9. The 9 felt and looked very loose in the front but the heel was perfect. Great flat versatile patent sandal but just not for me."

Chapter 6
David takes the ark to the city of David—Uzzah is smitten for steadying the ark and dies—David dances before the Lord, causing a breach between him and Michal.
1 Again, David
2 And David arose, and went with all the people that were with him from Baale of Judah, to bring up from thence the
3 And they set the ark of God upon a new cart, and brought it out of the house of Abinadab that was in Gibeah: and Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, drave the new cart.
4 And they brought it out of the house of Abinadab which was at Gibeah, accompanying the ark of God: and Ahio went before the ark.
5 And David and all the house of Israel played before the Lord on all manner of instruments made of fir wood, even on

9 And David was afraid of the Lord that day, and said, How shall the ark of the Lord come to me?
10 So David would not remove the ark of the Lord unto him into the city of David: but David carried it aside into the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.
11 And the ark of the Lord continued in the house of Obed-edom the Gittite three months: and the Lord blessed Obed-edom, and all his household.
12 ¶And it was told king David, saying, The Lord hath blessed the house of Obed-edom, and all that pertaineth unto him, because of the

23 Therefore Michal the daughter of Saul had no child unto the day of her death.

Recently, I wrote that it was all about content, and that no matter how great the content is, unless it is being pushed out in a way for people to read, it's not going to matter.
Here's taking that idea one step further - content is great, you need to get it out to the right audience, but it's not just about being online. Blogs are a great form of communications, but they are just a tool in the communications mix.
So, here are two examples of blogs being used to enhance the public relations campaigns. The first is Steven Phenix's father and colleagues; the second is English Cut and David Parmet's work on the project.
When The News Went Live is a blog written by four old-school journalists, and how their lives changed the day of the Kennedy shooting down in Dallas. The blog was set-up to support the public relations campaign for the book of the same name the four had written together, and has lead to more press and more public appearances for the four.
Via email, I have been speaking to Steven about the project. We first talked about the difficulty on getting parents to blog - I gave up on my Mom's real estate blog, but if you want to buy in Scottsdale, let me know - and I was sure he had some of the fun headaches I had. I believe he characterized it as taking a stick to the fellow authors to adopt new communications technology.
Here's where it is interesting - and why it shows that a blog can be a good mix in a public relations campaign if correctly done.
The book publisher launched a traditional campaign - media outreach to print, radio and TV. And book signings. With the blog - and Steven's work - those book signings have increased, and C-SPAN came to Austin to film a segment. The blog has also reached people in foreign countries, something that the PR campaign was not accomplishing. As Steven noted, his father gets very excited when he gets a comment or trackback from outside the United States.
Let's be honest, though. If the authors were not interesting - and the book subject not Kennedy - the blog reach would not be as massive. But, Steven is working with the authors to make sure that they are blogging the right way, are posting interesting information, and driving greater traffic and awareness for the book.
On the flip side of the same coin in The English Cut blog on the Savile Row tailor. David has done a great job working with Thomas Mahon, the tailor, and booking some great media appointments while in New York. The Red Couch has a good post about David's work, but misses the bigger picture.
But as we discussed over Skype, is it the blog driving interest, or is it because there's a great story to tell? Just the blog isn't enough to get the story - it's a great hook to get into the door for media - but the fact that Thomas is a sincere, genuine person and it he comes across that way in both the blog and in interviews. Here's someone that decided to market his old world skills in a new world communications form - that's a good story. Here's someone that can actually tell the story, and hooks up with a pretty darn good PR person that can work the phones (yes, PR is still a phone-based business).
So, while the blog may have been an impetus for publicity, it wasn't the end-all or be-all of the story. The story on English Cut is bigger than just the blog, but the blog has helped increase business.
Two ways that blogs are being used in communications - and how PR can use blogs as an ends unto themselves.

PupLife.com's president is back at the e-retailer after a year with SupplyGeeks.com.
Allison Enright
The lure of wagging tails and four-legged fun drew Eric Houtkooper back to PupLife.com, the e-retail business he co-founded with his wife in 2003. He left PupLife a little more than a year ago to help launch e-commerce for SOS Office, a business-to-business office supply retailer selling online as SupplyGeeks.com.
Houtkooper says he learned a lot from his experience as director of e-commerce at SupplyGeeks.com, but found it tough to effectively market the same products available from much larger merchants like Amazon.com Inc., Staples Inc. and Office Depot. "Pets are a lot more fun," Houtkooper says, "and there's a lot more innovation in the pet supply business than in the office supply sector." That makes it possible for PupLife to differentiate what it does and sells from other retailers that sell pet products online. Amazon.com is No. 1 in Internet Retailer's Top 500 Guide. Staples is No. 2 and Office Depot is No. 6.
"We'll have the stuff you aren't going to find in the big-box stores or on Amazon," he says. "From us you want these really cool beds from Bowsers and cool, arty tags from Lucky Pup out of L.A." Bowsers Pet Products and Lucky Pup Designs are niche manufacturers of pet products, which Houtkooper says help set PupLife.com apart from other e-retailers.
Houtkooper remained on board with PupLife as a consultant while at SupplyGeeks.com. Watching people treat their dogs as members of the family—and tracking higher spending along with that treatment—helped convince him it was time to rededicate himself to PupLife. U.S. consumers spent approximately $53 billion in 2012 on their pets, up 5% from 2011, according to the American Pet Products Association trade group. That's a lot of chew toys.
Houtkooper, who earlier in his career was an art director and web designer, has, since his return to PupLife, redesigned the site following responsive web design principles. He says PupLife.com needed an overhaul and about 20% to 25% of its traffic came from consumers using mobile devices, largely tablet computers. Responsive web design is a method of crafting a single web site so that it will render properly no matter the device a consumer uses.
Moving forward, Houtkooper anticipates hiring four to six new staffers in the coming year, essentially tripling PupLife's current employee base. The retailer recently gave up the lease on its warehouse, which Houtkooper says used to be packed full of products, in favor of drop-shipping. Houtkooper says 99% of products PupLife.com sells are now fulfilled by the suppliers. That frees PupLife up to focus on marketing the site and the products it sells.
Some of that marketing is on Facebook, where consumers like to share and post fun details about their own human-pet interactions. PupLife poses a question on Facebook each Friday meant to encourage interactions, such as "Do you ever sing to your dog?" That question generated dozens of Likes and comments, including one from a fan who posted a YouTube video of his performance and his dog's (rather mortified) reaction. "You are not going to find that in the office supply sector," Houtkooper says.

Skip to comments.Denominations make doctrinal compromises..(More Apostasy hits the church!)
Posted on 02/24/2009 10:16:27 AM PST by TaraP
Two mainline denominations have announced decisions indicating a further move away from Bible-based Christianity.
In Michigan, the new bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Northern Michigan is an ordained Zen Buddhist. Northern Michigan's Episcopal congregations and delegates overwhelmingly elected the Rev. Kevin Thew Forrester at their convention on Saturday.
The diocesan website says Thew Forrester "has practiced Zen meditation for almost a decade," and the Buddhist community welcomed his commitment by granting him "lay ordination." The website also says Northern Michigan's new bishop "resonates deeply" with "his own interfaith dialogue with Buddhism and meditative practice."
Meanwhile, Presbyterian Church (USA) representatives in Arkansas and central North Carolina have endorsed amending the church constitution to allow non-celibate homosexuals to be ordained as ministers, elders and deacons. The votes were taken at regional presbytery meetings on Saturday.
Homosexual men and women can be ordained in the PCUSA, but church standards currently forbid sex outside of traditional marriage between a man and woman.
The amendment goes into effect if a majority of the denomination's 173 presbyteries approve it. So far, 24 presbyteries have voted for the amendment and 39 have voted against it, according to the Presbyterian Lay Committee, a group that opposes ordaining non-celibate homosexuals.
WOW..Learn something everyday..
Homosexual men and women can be ordained in the PCUSA, but church standards currently forbid sex outside of traditional marriage between a man and woman..
Two Men who engage in Sodomy is just fine with the church..
Sounds like PCUSA is engaging in discrimination of the nature of which caused the USSC to throw out Texas' laws against same sex sodomy.
Isn't all that odd that PCUSA and CPUSA seemt to have the same goals in mind.
The PCUSA has abortion coverage in the clergy health insurance package. That made them completely apostate before this episode, IMO.
Should not be surprising....we got the 700 Club now supporting the Global Warming Myth and Socialism...
They might as well tear out all scriptures in the bible that speak of morality...
After all the 21st Century is about accomodating Homosexuals
Which has been the downfall of society ever since.
I do not understand why you have a problem with sodomy temple prostitution. These are ancient practices common to nearly all primitive religions.
Main line protestant denominations have been practicing cultural religion for decades. There is no serious attempt to adhere to basic Christian doctrine.
Orgiastic and mystic pratices are the logical extension of the devolution of protestantism. They are already practicing infant sacrifice. Look for altar orgies next.
Yep. You know, that whole bit about adultery is cramping my style - can't we get rid of that too?
"We know that we have come to know him if we obey his commands. The man who says, "I know him," but does not do what he commands is a liar, and the truth is not in him."
1 John 3:7-9
"Dear children, do not let anyone lead you astray. He who does what is right is righteous, just as he is righteous. He who does what is sinful is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil's work.
No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God's seed remains in him; he cannot go on sinning, because he has been born of God."
Deliberate rebellious sin that these people promote and live by is the character of the enemy and in direct rebellion to God.
But they have the right doctrine of the Trinity. That is the important thing.
Um. . .what? The Branch Davidian is/was a cult.
By the way, as I recall, the attack against them wasn't based on the religion they practiced, but because they had an arsenal of weapons and were suspected of child abuse. I'm not defending the government's actions in this case. Just saying the issue was never their faith.
Presbyterians are divided by different denominations. PCA and OP are very solidly Christian. Perhaps others as well. I only know about these two.
It's time to realize that the only true church is the fellowship of believers, organized only by faith and heart, the head of which is Christ alone.
Back to the Word, folks. Forget what men say and get back to basics.
Every one of us has easy access to scripture. Check what religious leaders say against what The Book teaches. Then run from the wolves.
A. Sign Events signs predicted in Scripture will alert the Church to the timing of His return.
B. Sign Trends in society and creation will escalate and thus signal the final generation.
C. Cosmic Signs highly unusual phenomena in the sky, this even includes weather
D. Personal Signs subjective prophetic experiences that alert believers to the End-Times
A. Scripture describes 3 prophetic time frames related to the last 7-years of this age (Dan. 9:27). The last 7 years is made up of 2 distinct periods each lasting 3½ years.
B. The first time frame is the beginning of birth pangs with wars and rumors of wars (Mt. 24:4-8).
The second time frame is the increased labor pangs in the first 3½ year period (of the last 7 years) which is characterized by counterfeit world peace (1 Thes. 5:3; Dan. 9:27).
The third time frame is the hard labor pangs in the final 3½ year period of the Great Tribulation.
With all due respect to your analysis:
"No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark; and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man."
— Matthew 24:36-39, the words of Jesus
"...Isnt all that odd that PCUSA and CPUSA seemt to have the same goals in mind.."
add ELCA, UCC and now the Methodist Church is adding their name to the list.
I feel paranoid - am I out of step - or them???
Ah, but only Presbyterian Church USA shares letters with Communist Party USA.
I misread - thought it was ECUSA instead of CPUSA - you're right!!
And that would refer to the Rapture of the Church not the Second Coming of Christ....
We need to be ready for the Rapture..As Jesus comes as a thief of the night....
Tara, what part of "at the coming of the Son of Man" do you not understand?
That is absolutely referring to Christ coming again, as a thief IN the night, not OF the night. Like a burglar who comes when you are sleeping and not expecting it.
We need to be ready for anything this life throws at us, understanding fully that it could all end at any moment and that our Savior will welcome us into His arms when it does.
Seriously, quit trying to interpret Scripture and just read what it says. You understand that, while it says those living when He comes will be "caught up in the clouds" to meet him, the word "rapture" is not in scripture but rather one that man made up?
Just asking you to read scripture with an open mind and new eyes. It's much better that all the stuff that flawed theologians throw at us.
Yes and the Bible is not in the Bible either..Harpazo is the rapture..Caught up..read Thessolonians..
We will be caught up with Jesus in the Air..Jesus is not Coming to earth, this is not the Second Coming..I understand Scripture very well...
The Antichrist will not cannot come to Power with the True Church of Christ on the earth..We will nto go through the Great Tribulation...
Fine. Whatever. You've apparently developed a complex theology based on men's teachings, so stay where you're comfortable.
And what does scripture say about the antichrist?
"Dear children, this is the last hour; and as you have heard that the antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come. This is how we know it is the last hour. They went out from us, but they did not really belong to us. For if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us; but their going showed that none of them belonged to us." I John 2:18-19
"Many deceivers, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh, have gone out into the world. Any such person is the deceiver and the antichrist." II John:7
Sounds like the antichrist is — and has been — among us all along, unless, of course, we follow some extra-scriptural doctrine taught by men.
Thank you. I knew there was another one.

Once you have connected with a few patients and medical professionals in your country, take time to organize your contacts and plan next steps. Work with the other founding members of your group to define a development period and temporary structure of responsibilities and procedures. Address, for example, how work will be shared and how leaders will be elected.The decisions you make in these early days are likely to change over time, but they are important nonetheless. These choices will inform the growth of your group and how you begin your work. They should facilitate your group's efforts toward achieving your initial goals and continuing your work. If they don't, take the time to reevaluate why and make necessary changes. You will want your group to run smoothly in its smallest, simplest form so that it can be effective as it grows!

By Paula WellnitzOrangeville
Dear Editor:
I want to second your suggestions in the Opinion column in last week's paper regarding the old Mill building and the Star Theatre and center in Huntington.
For years I have looked at that old Mill and thought it is a shame that it is just sitting there. For awhile it seemed that it was being used. Then I heard it was not anymore. It is a perfect place to be set up to be like a historic activity museum. It would be fun to see how it worked in its day.
There is a mill in Monticello or some other town that is (or at least was) remodeled to be used as a bed and breakfast. At least it was being used and would be be a charming place to be able to stay.
The ideas about the theater and center sound like good ideas too. The whole package could draw visitors which would also effect some of the other businesses in town.

Since 1989, the Council for Citizens Against Government Waste (CCAGW) has examined roll call votes to help identify which members of Congress have defended taxpayer interests and which have backed down on their promises of fiscal responsibility. The Ratings separate the praiseworthy from the profligate by evaluating important tax, spending, transparency, and accountability measures. CCAGW applauds those members of Congress who stood up for taxpayers and ignored the temptations of satisfying local or special interests. However, those who supported a big-government agenda should be prepared to face the consequences for their spendthrift behavior.
CCAGW's 2015 Congressional Ratings, for the first session of the 114th Congress, scored 100 votes in the House of Representatives and 35 votes in the Senate. By comparison, CCAGW rated 85 votes in the House of Representatives and 13 votes in the Senate in the second session of the 113th Congress.
CCAGW rates members on a 0-100% scale. Members are placed in the following categories: 0-19% Hostile; 20-39% Unfriendly; 40-59% Lukewarm; 60-79% Friendly; 80-99% Taxpayer Hero; and 100% Taxpayer Super Hero.
In 2015, 17 lawmakers (15 senators and two representatives) earned the coveted title of Taxpayer Super Hero by achieving the highest possible score of 100 percent: Sens. John Barrasso (R-Wyo.), John Boozman (R-Ark.), Bill Cassidy (R-La.), Tom Cotton (R-Ark.), Mike Crapo (R-Idaho), Ted Cruz (R-Texas), Steve Daines (R-Mont.), James Inhofe (R-Okla.), Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), David Perdue (R-Ga.), James Risch (R-Idaho), Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), Ben Sasse (R-Neb.), Thom Tillis (R-N.C.), and David Vitter (R-La.), as well as Reps. Barry Loudermilk (R-Ga.) and Tom McClintock (R-Calif.).
In 2014, 17 lawmakers (nine senators and eight representatives) received a perfect score.
There are 36 Taxpayer Heroes in the Senate, an increase of 57 percent from the 23 Taxpayer Heroes in 2014. In 2015, there are 152 Taxpayer Heroes in the House of Representatives, two more than the 150 Taxpayer Heroes in 2014.
On the other end of the spectrum, 26 representatives had a score of zero and 25 senators had a score of zero. In 2014, one representative had a score of zero and 30 senators had a score of zero.
The first session of the 114th Congress was the first time since 2007 that the Republicans controlled both the House and the Senate. As a result, there were many more victories on behalf of taxpayers than in prior years, but numerous amendments to cut wasteful spending even further were defeated.
Repeal of Obamacare. H.R. 596, which would repeal the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) and health care-related provisions in the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, passed by a vote of 239-186.
Elimination of Duplicative Climate Change Programs. During consideration of H.R. 1806, the America COMPETES Reauthorization Act, Rep. Alan Lowenthal (D-Ca.) offered an amendment that would eliminate a requirement for the Government Accountability Office to identify certain overlapping climate science-related initiatives. The amendment was rejected by a vote of 187-236.
Repeal of the Medical Device Tax. H.R. 160, the Protect Medical Innovation Act of 2015, which would repeal the 2.3 percent medical device tax included in Obamacare, passed by a vote of 280-140.
Congressional Approval of "Major Rules." H.R. 427, the Regulations from the Executive in Need of Scrutiny (REINS) Act of 2015, which would require Congress to approve all regulatory proposals with an economic impact greater than $100 million ("major rules"), passed by a vote of 243-165.
Elimination of the Federal Estate Tax. During consideration of S. Con. Res. 11, the fiscal year (FY) 2016 Budget Resolution, Sen. John Thune (R-S.D.) offered an amendment to eliminate the federal estate tax. The amendment was adopted by a vote of 54-46.
Solar Panel Rebates. During consideration of S. 1, the Keystone XL Pipeline, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) offered an amendment to establish a rebate program for individuals and businesses for the purchase and installation of solar panels on residential and commercial properties. The amendment failed by a vote of 40-58.
Obamacare for Members of Congress. During consideration of S. Con. Res. 11, Sen. David Vitter (R-La.) offered an amendment to compel all members of Congress, the President, Vice President, and all political appointees to obtain their health insurance on the individual healthcare exchanges under Obamacare. The amendment was adopted by a vote of 52-46.
Prohibiting Federal Employment for Delinquent Tax Debt. H.R. 1563, the Federal Employee Tax Accountability Act, would make existing and future federal employees with "delinquent tax debt" ineligible for employment with the federal government. The bill was rejected by a vote of 266-160 (284 votes were needed for passage).
Across-the-Board Cuts to Appropriations Bills. There were seven amendments in the Ratings to make across-the-board spending reductions in appropriations bills, but they all failed. For example, during consideration of H.R. 2028, the FY 2016 Energy and Water Appropriations bill, an amendment offered by Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) to cut 1 percent across the board was rejected by a vote of 159-248.
Essential Air Service (EAS). During consideration of H.R. 2577, the FY 2016 Transportation and Housing & Urban Development Appropriations bill, Rep. Tom McClintock (R-Ca.) offered an amendment to eliminate funding for the EAS. The amendment was rejected by a vote of 166-255.
Export-Import Bank Reauthorization. The Export-Import Bank Reform and Reauthorization Act, H.R. 597, passed in the House by a vote of 313-118. This vote, along with several amendments related to the Export-Import Bank, are included in the Ratings, as CCAGW has long opposed this corporate welfare program.
Keystone XL Pipeline Veto Override. After the House and Senate voted to approve the Keystone project, the Senate failed to override the president's veto by a vote of 62-37, five votes short of the necessary two-thirds majority.
Repeal the Individual Mandate in Obamacare. During consideration of H.R. 2, the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act, Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) offered an amendment to repeal the individual mandate in Obamacare. The amendment failed by a vote of 54-45 (60 votes were needed for passage).
Repeal Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA). During consideration of H.R. 1314, Trade Promotion Authority, Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) offered an amendment to eliminate the extension of the TAA program. The amendment failed by a vote of 35-63.
CCAGW also analyzed ratings based on party affiliation and House membership in the Republican Study Committee.
The averages were: Senate Republicans – 93 percent, up 8 percentage points from 85 percent in 2014; Senate Democrats, including Independents – 5 percent, unchanged from 2014; House Republicans – 82 percent, down 2 percentage points from 84 percent in 2014; House Democrats – 4 percent, down 5 percentage points from 9 percent in 2014; House Republican Study Committee – 86 percent, down 1 percentage point from 87 percent in 2014.
CCAGW congratulates the members who stood by taxpayers and championed fiscal responsibility throughout the first session of the 114th Congress and encourages the constituents of the non-Heroes to demand better results in the 2016 election and beyond.

Car batteries
There are a variety of Car Batteries currently available, Wet Cell, Calcium and AGM to name a few, each needing to be maintained in a slightly different manner but, all can be dealt with, with a CTEK 24V or 12V battery charger
For car batteries, a 12V battery charger such as the MXS 5.0 will charge but also condition the battery through a series of stages that first removes the sulphur from the internal plates and then breaks it down and mixes it back into the acid solution. As a result the battery will be given a new lease of life. For trucks and other larger vehicles a 24V battery charger from CTEK will perform the same task.
Wet cell, Calcium and Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM) are all various versions of the lead-acid battery that have different advantages, disadvantages and maintenance requirements.
Wet cell Car Batteries, or flooded battery as they're also known, still dominates a large proportion of the car battery market. Despite the first wet cells typically being fragile glass containers with lead rods hanging from an open top, developments in manufacturing, and of course safety, techniques have seen the wet cell progress in to an affordable, reliable and, if recharged and maintained correctly, long lasting vehicle battery.
Calcium batteries also take up a large proportion of the battery market and have the same generic make-up of wet cell batteries except both the positive and negative plates are replaced by calcium alloy. By doing this, the fluid loss is about 80% lower than that of a normal wet cell battery and the self-discharge rate is also considerably lower which, in turn, provides huge advantages to those storing the units.
Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM)or 'dry' batteries as they're also known are the latest step in the evolution of lead-acid batteries. Instead of using water or a gel, an AGM uses a fibreglass separator to hold the electrolyte in place.
GEL batteries (GEL)
GEL batteries use a gelified acid. GEL batteries can withstand deep discharging and are for example used in vehicles with demanding electric equipment, electric wheelchairs and as consumer batteries on boats.
All of these Car Batteries possess different technologies that are going to suit the differing needs of the vehicle however, they all have one thing in common in that they need to be carefully maintained to ensure once in use, they provide the energy needed. None of them are free from self discharge and all will therefore require a charge at one point or another and, a CTEK 24V or 12V battery charger will fulfil all of its requirements.
Unlike many battery chargers available on the market, a CTEK 24V or 12V battery charger will react only to the needs of the battery meaning that every CTEK charger is suitable to charge, condition and prolong the life of all of the above Car Batteries.

I made my first quilt while still in high school, then didn't do much more until about twenty years ago. I did a few off and on through the years as friends had babies, but I really begin quilting twenty years ago when I opened my practice. It saved my sanity when the first weeks (and some since) were so slow, the phone didn't seem to ring, etc.
I gave my first quilt to my best friend from high school Blyson's daughter Amanda years ago. Amanda is graduating from high school this spring. I "hounded" Blyson into sending photos of the quilt to me.
My first quilt was made using some cottons and some cotton blends. It used some scraps left over from some clothes I had made and worn. The bee fabric was a shirt. The ginghams were used to make a blouse. The pastels had made up a block color dress along with the one of some printed fabric. The dress had dolman sleeves.
Blyson's email states the quilt measures 42 in X 104 in, but that doesn't compute with me. I remember the quilt being square (as I was and am) and the photo looks like it was square. It appears to measure 19 blocks horizontally and vertically. Each block (I think) is 2.5 in which means the finished quilt is 47.5 in.
I made the quilt in 1974 at age 16. Each block was cut out by hand. These days I use a rotary cutter. Don't know if I machine pieced it or not, but I do know I did not bind it. I "finished" the edges by literally sewing the three layers together around the edges, leaving a section open to turn it. I then hand closed the section and "top-stitched" around the edges. I "tied" the corners of each square. The things I have learned since then!
I embroidered names of classmates with nicknames on the pastel squares, as well as favorite classes/activities. This one features the mechanical drawing class I took with my friend Pam (who is now a favorite teacher of English at Vilonia). The two of us sat in the back of Mr. Park's 10th grade geometry class, the only two taking mechanical drawing.
This one features chemistry also taught by Mr. Park. Our school was so small that to have enough students, the class included both junior and senior students. This was also the case with physics. As a result I and many of my classmates feel close to the class above us (1974) and the one behind us (1976).
This one features basketball. I loved being on the basketball team. I was mostly a bench warmer, but I loved it. I even now will occasionally get out in my backyard and shoot baskets. Such great memories.

Only MM product I don't like. Not much of a scent and the paper just folds in on itself in the dryer, kind of like rolls up. Won't repurchase.
They add no softness
Posted by Reviewer1696900 on Sep 13, 2011
The sheet smell wonderful, and if you add 4 or five to the laundry then the fragrance will transfer to the laundrey, but the dryer sheets do not add any softness.
very good

As this works well in conjunction with our other natural washing supplies, we find it works for all members of the family without being overwhelming. We have one particular member of the family that MUST have a smell to his clothes and it does the right job.
Love these sheets
Posted by DebsPicks on Aug 06, 2016
I have been using these for awhile. they do work pretty well except i have a front load washer and dryer so they are larger size of loads than normal..so i have to use 2 sheets instead..sometimes i use three for towels to get the fragrance in the towels. and it will take the static out using 2 sheets. That's why i gave it 4 stars is because i have to use more of them and not just one..but I like them and will continue to use these.
Posted by 5631393361588436910 on Feb 19, 2015
I expected this to smell the same as the candle. It didn't. It doesn't smell bad. It is just different from what I expected. After the drier, the sheet was no longer sheet. it was more like a little ball. I don't know if that happens to other people.

Breaking: Brian Burke fired
Cam Charron
January 09 2013 11:10AM
Bombshell city:
Toronto Maple Leafs have apparently fired Brian Burke as general manager. Working on official confirmations.— Bob McKenzie (@TSNBobMcKenzie) January 9, 2013
Fairly surprising development in the hockey world today: Brian Burke, after four seasons with the Toronto Maple Leafs and soon to start his fifth, was fired today, Bob MacKenzie of TSN was the first to report.
The firing takes place at an odd time in the life cycle of a sports team, at the end of the offseason rather than the beginning of it. Of course, several developments have taken place in the Maple Leafs' corporate structure since the beginning of the summer. Most importantly, the sale of Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment (MLSE) closed on August 22, less than a month before the lockout began.
Rogers and Bell, new owners of MLSE, which includes the Maple Leafs, Toronto Marlies, Toronto Raptors and Toronto FC. Rogers, also owns Toronto's Blue Jays: when Rogers purchased the Toronto Blue Jays, it was a year before six-year general manager Gord Ash was replaced by the younger, more personable J.P. Ricciardi, who, as a disciple of Billy Beane in Oakland was charged with the task of slashing payroll while maintaining the team's winning percentage.
I don't doubt that Rogers and Bell want more "hands on" management of their teams and they'll at least try to install their own man at the helm. The Burke regime had a lot of chefs in the kitchen, bringing in former Vancouver GM Dave Nonis, former Lightning assistant GM Claude Loiselle and former Notre Dame head coach Dave Poulin. Darren Dreger, who is related to Nonis, didn't break the story, which could indicate that MLSE will be looking to go outside the organization for a hire, which would probably be a good thing. A shakeup in the hockey operations department isn't awful, since the Leafs went four years under Burke missing the playoffs in each, never winning more than 37 games.
We'll wait to see what happens and take the steps from there. Initial reaction is that this is a positive move for the Leafs, but it obviously depends on who replaces Burke. He was primarily a business mind who found success working in small markets in Hartford and Anaheim, but is probably best known for his successful rebuild in Vancouver while the Canadian dollar was low. It's apparent that he never got used to having a whole lot of money at his disposal, and the Leafs, the NHL's richest team, was not one that used its money on players too often.
UPDATE There is a Leafs press conference scheduled for 1:45 for a "major announcement". We'll cover all that's said in a later post.
January 09 2013, 10:59AM
That is very, very odd.
January 09 2013, 11:29AM
Yeah it's the timing for me as well. You article helps clarify things a bit though.
I guess once you have accepted that there is a problem, there is no sense waiting until the end of the season to address it.
The new owners were not impressed with the achievements of Burke, so out he goes. Probably a good decision on their part.
this is really funny. what happened to skipping the rebuild and just becoming a contender on the fly? i thought brian burke was smarter then everybody else. where are the results? how does tyler seguin look for the next 15-20 years? he is a blowhard with a massive undeserved ego that cost him.
