Dear Richard,
My mother is a practicing Pentecostal Christian and has recently begun heavily witnessing to my five-year-old son. I was raised in this cult-like religion, but have been an atheist for nearly 10 years now. Although my mother and I have never had an in-depth conversation regarding my deconversion, she knows where I stand on the issue of religion.
The past few times my son has spent time with her (she lives several houses away so he doesn't see her regularly) she has taught him religious songs and has talked to him about inviting Jesus into his heart, praying, Heaven, etc. She has placed prayer cloths (strips of cloth church members pray over) in his room and once when she kept my son and infant daughter overnight at her house she took them to choir practice and had the choir members pray over them.
To make matters worse she has asked my son to keep these things a secret from me, and his father who is also an atheist. Being five, my son of course cannot keep a secret, and told us what happened after each event. I'm not sure how to approach my mother regarding her behavior.
My mother and I have always been extremely close and I love her very much, but I am deeply saddened and hurt by her actions. I know that I cannot have a rational conversation with her because I have tried this in the past. When my son was one, she said she wanted to take him to Sunday School and I explained in as nice a way as possible that this was not going to happen. She became enraged and cried uncontrollably. The subject was never broached again by either one of us. My husband is angry with my mother and wants me to talk to her ASAP. I know that I have to speak with her about this, but I don't want to permanently damage our relationship. Do you have any advice on how I can talk to my mother?

Ask Richard: Grandmother Proselytizing Young Boy Behind His Atheist Parents' Backs
Say It Is So, Joe
Tornado season has come roaring back, and the devastation across the Midwest and South is already shocking. We grieve the loss of life, the injuries, and damage to property.
Individuals and groups will be rallying to bring aid to people who are seriously affected by the storms, and it seems likely that atheist groups will be among those out there helping just like they were last year.
In anticipation of that, here is a suggested t-shirt design for the atheist groups who will be doing what they can to bring people what they need:

Ask Richard: Atheist Outs Himself on First Date; She Rejects Him After They're in Love
Dear Richard,
My girlfriend just broke up with me suddenly due to my lack of belief in god. Everything between us had been so perfect, felt so natural and right (her words), yet she went from loving me and telling me how much I meant to her on one day to telling me she can't be with me anymore the next day. This happened a few days prior to my birthday while I was on vacation. I had disclosed about my former religious self and how I can no longer believe in god on our first date.
Her best friend's father passed away and that made her realize that she could be in front of god's judgment any day. That scared her because she feels that she's not good enough. She wants to be closer to god. She blamed herself for the mistreatment from her previous relationship because she wasn't living according to god. She told me that I'm better than most people she knows in church and that no one has ever made her feel so special and beautiful like the way I made her feel, yet she cannot be with me anymore because I'm not a "man of faith"…
Ask Richard: Newly Out as Gay and Atheist, Treated Hatefully by Uncle
Dear Richard,
I recently came out to my family and friends as gay and atheist. Throughout all of it, I have received an overwhelming amount of unexpected support. But, in every family, there is at least one bigot.
I have an uncle who, when I came out as gay, instead of rationally discussing it with me, decided he was going to start screaming Bible verses at me in front of the whole family. He ran off afterwards. I'd hoped that it was over and that he would just leave me alone, but he will not.
First, I started getting messages on Facebook telling me that I have "chosen" to lead a very wrong and sinful lifestyle. He said that he "loves" me, but I am going to burn in hell for "choosing" to be gay. He said I am a dark person and I am just angry at God.
I tried to explain to him that I did not choose to be gay and that I am not angry at God because I do not believe in him. He completely ignored this and just started spewing hate and bigotry again. I finally just blocked him from Facebook because I had enough of it.
Fast forward a few days. He found my blog that I write about atheists. He started to comment on the posts telling me I'm a horrible person, I am choosing to live the wrong lifestyle, that Darwin was an idiot atheist who didn't know what the hell he was talking about, and saying that science has proved there is a God, etc. [Click headline to read more…]

Atheists Turn Out for AIDS Walk Los Angeles
Sunday morning I had the great pleasure to walk for 10 kilometers with 14 of my fellow members of Atheists United to help raise money for AIDS Project Los Angeles (APLA). In response to my previous post two weeks ago, several of you sponsored me for a total of $740 dollars. Thank you! My deep gratitude goes to Dayanna, Pam, Joe, Rick, David, and three anonymous people. Your kindness helped to raise the Atheists United team donation to $1,295. This year's event has brought in $2,520,684 for APLA and more than 25 other critically important AIDS organizations.
The mood was contagiously festive as 25,000 people walked the route through West Hollywood. Overcast skies kept the temperatures very comfortable but did not dampen anyone's spirits. In our bright red t-shirts, we met many people who were curious about our organization or atheism in general, and who talked with us as we walked. There was no negative interaction with anyone.
Even Jesus chatted pleasantly and cordially with us while we waited in the crowd for the walk to begin.

After losing his game Paire said in the press conference "They should use the money from my fine to rebuild the courts." Carole Bouchard tweeted it: https://twitter.com/carole_bouchard/status/350989492267659265 With all the injuries and slips the players are seriously talking off the record about changes in wimbledon or a boicot for next year. This wimpledon and 1996 wimpledon are the 2 tournaments with the least top 10 in 3rd round. What do you people think?
I think they should sink every dime of Benoit Paire's fine into court maintenance. The courts will probably be made of of diamonds and gold next year. Otherwise, Benoit Paire should make a statement by boycotting Wimbledon next year.
Every time Nadal loses on a court 'before he should lose', that court needs to be re-designed for next year. It's disgusting.
Everyone is slipping on grass. Top players are getting injured on hardcourts. I say the tour should switch to 100% red clay courts. That should make everyone happy.
The courts are in terrific shape. The players don't know how to move on them anymore. They've gotten used to being able to plant and change directions when off-balance. You can't plant on one foot far outside your center of gravity and change directions off of it on a grass court. The footing is not supposed to be as stable as hard courts, it's part of the game.
First streaker at Wimbledon.Don't remeber her name though. I think she ran onto the court during the final 1996 between Richard Krajicek and MaliVai Washington.
I guess you have to tweet Carole bouchard to find out "They should use the money from my fine to rebuild the courts." Carole Bouchard tweeted it:
Thank you, made some research about it. Melissa Johnson, 23, waitress in Wimbledon. Didnt know about this
Just change to 4 hardcourt tournaments, play 1 on cracked urban hardcourt, one indoor, and the US/Aussie. Real tennis
Kim Clijsters said that a few years ago Wimbledon passed a rule limiting the number of pimples that can be on the bottoms of the players shoes. It was designed to protect the courts, could be lessening the amount of traction players get.
Don't be picking on Kimmie! At the urban tournament, the net height is different for each court, torn windscreens blow into the courts, all the fans have boom boxes and yell at the players, kids and dogs run across the courts at random times, and you have to fight off some big guys who want to play basketball on the court. Now that would be a real tournament.
Federer, Tsonga and Hewitt have all said the courts were same as usual and they had no issues, and I trust their views, as they are all experienced grass court players who know how to move, who might have been looking for an excuse. IMO, the main problem is the short gap between the FO and Wimbledon, which will be resolved soon. Players need to adjust their movement, and some are better at it than others, and some hoped they'd have an easy first couple of rounds to get the hang of it. I have limited sympathy for those who didn't play a warm-up tournament.
Great post. I don't want to see anyone get hurt but they should be able to adapt. They're the best of the best. If he wanted to beef and not sound like a spoiled whiner he should have said they need 3 or 4 weeks of grass court warm-up tourney before W.
Players wont go on the record about it but there are a few argentinean journalist that get to talk with the players especially from argentina, spain and france and they were told by many this, some of them tweeted about it or talk about it in radio shows but of course players wont go on the record. they changed not only the courts manager but also they changed the shoes, the can't have the grip that they used too so they wont brake the grass as much as a few years, and it's been said that they cut the grass at a different height to make it faster and last longer.
The first few days of Wimby are always lush grass and a bit slippery. I saw endless examples early on of some players sliding along and planting way too much weight on their feet at extreme angles, when changing direction. Madness. That's how you might play in the 2nd week, not the first. It's almost like a bunch of players this year simply forgot the surface they were playing on.

delivers a disappointing one it seems that much worse. I know they can't all be perfect, but I like to think that we can expect more than what we got this week.
First off tonight, Ted bought a new car. As his friends pointed out, no one in New York City needs a car and there was no reason for Ted to buy one. They all completely ignored the fact that up until recently Marshall had a car in the city (remember the Fiero?). But, who knows, maybe someone would have brought that up if Marshall hadn't appeared looking shell-shocked and repeating the word "beer" as he headed into the bar.
It seems as though Marshall's boss isn't the nicest of people, in fact, he yells at people (Marshall used the word "scream" but it seemed more like yelling to me). Today, it was Marshall's turn to get yelled at (he failed to turn in a report on time). That wasn't really the bad part of Marshall's day though. Rather than just taking the screaming, Marshall broke down in tears. Yup, he cried… he cried like a Patriots fan after the Giants ended their chance at a perfect season (that's right, it happened months ago, but I'm going to live off of it for a little while longer still).
Unsure of how he could possibly go into work the next day and hand in his report, Robin proposed to Marshall that he bring a gun and yell at his boss and Ted suggested delivering a big pompous speech (both of these suggestions were shown with Robin and Ted, respectively, as Marshall talking to his boss).
Barney was entirely against both these courses of action. He told a wonderful story about a nice fellow at his office, Gary, who finally stood up to the boss after getting yelled at repeatedly. Gary ended up with "stage fright" and after yelling at his boss couldn't pee on the conference table to truly drive his point home. Then, after Gary lost all his money when his cousin's website, which he'd invested in, went belly-up, he moved into an apartment above a bowling alley before he died. Which, in my mind, and Barney's too, clearly all happened because he yelled back at his boss.
Barney's point was that there is, in corporate America, a "chain of screaming." This pretty much amounts to the big boss yelling at the slightly less big boss, the slightly less big boss yelling at their underling, who yells at their underling, and on, and on, and on.
Lily was, naturally, against the yelling. She suggested a speech on respect and then moved in a direction which belied the fact that she and Marshall haven't been having sexual relations recently (she too was dressed as Marshall and delivering the speech to his boss as she suggested the idea).
Marshall wanted to go with Lily's suggestion, but Barney convinced him not to. Barney had Marshall try to propagate the chain of screaming at a diner, but the plan backfired when the waiter yelled at Marshall instead. Undeterred, Barney allowed himself to be the target of a tirade from Marshall, and once Marshall started yelling he couldn't stop. Marshall went into work the next day and yelled at his boss before quitting.
This turn of events left Marshall and Lily in a precarious position, what with their mammoth mortgage payments, student loan payments, and complete lack of sexual relations. However, while in the back of Ted's car, Lily explained to Marshall that he didn't need to get the job back, that they would be okay, that they would find a way to make it work. Then, they had sex in Ted's new car.
This last bit didn't so much matter as Ted sold the car (or, perhaps somehow got the dealer to take it back) and loaned Marshall enough cash to tide them over.
I guess, all's well that ends well, and it's nice to know that Marshall and Lily are back in the saddle, but I didn't really get that same sense of joy from this episode. Usually the episodes that center on Barney-isms are my favorite, but this one simply wasn't as much fun. Maybe that's because Marshall's life was falling apart, or maybe the problems lies in the fact that Barney couldn't decide whether it was a circle, chain, or pyramid of screaming.
More likely though, it is the fact that there can be no doubt that the chain of screaming is real and obvious. Barney isn't necessary to point out that when your boss has a bad day you have a bad day and those around you later are likely to have a bad day as well. Barney's ideas are at their best when they are true and not obvious, when he shows us the world in a way we never saw it before. Without that happening tonight, there was little point in his chain of screaming.
A quote and a question:
- Okay, so it's not a family-oriented quote (depending on how you look at it), but I have to go with Lily-as-Marshall talking to Marshall's boss and, in discussing Lily, stating how Lily-Marshall was going to "drive her home like a pack of sled dogs."
- You can probably guess the question, but I'll give it to you anyway — am I wrong? Was the episode genius? Did I just miss it? I saw bits of funny, did you see more than the smattering I did?

Birth control Q for wife looking to cut
Birth control Q for wife looking to cut
Asking question on behalf of my wife. How does birth control (pill or IUD) affect weight loss? Wife is 5'6" 125 lbs. and fairly lean (she wants to be smaller/leaner). Eats clean and does cardio 4-5x/week and lifts 3 days/week. Her weight will not decrease to save her life and was wondering if the IUD was causing her body to hold on to last bit of fat? Any females using Erase to lower estrogen? Is that safe for females? Thanks.
Firstly, wow, thank you for letting me know about IUDs. I'm sure I could have found this out with 5 minutes of Googling, but you saved me the trouble, haha.
Anyways, hormone-based birth control will affect weight loss, at least with estrogen-based BC. I imagine a lot of weight that women carry on BC is water based because estrogen increases water retention. However, it is also known that the test:estrogen ratio is important in determining muscle anabolism. Estrogen based BC floods a woman with estrogen, and this I would imagine would shift her T:E such that this type of anabolism is diminished. What this means is, the muscle would be less metabolically active, so she would burn less calories in a steady-state scenario. So in essence I think it would make weight loss harder, yes.
However, it seems like at least non-hormonal IUDs could negate this primarily by not being hormonal. In addition, I still haven't done the research yet, but I suspect that progestin-based BC would also not affect weight gain negatively.
Subbing for feedback from anyone else. -
It depends on if she has the Mirena IUD or the Paragard IUD. The Mirena has a low dose of hormones so it could hinder weight loss, but I don't think it would stop it. The Paragard is the copper IUD and has no synthetic hormones so I don't think that would have any affect on weight loss or gain. I had the Paragard for 3 years and I was totally cool with it- I was fat while I had it, but that's because I didn't exercise and ate everything in sight
I'm not a supporter of any hormonal birth control methods- I think they make women act a little bit nutty and really, who wants to trick their body into thinking it's pregnant every month? That's what hormonal birth control does because it stops ovulation from happening. I currently just use the calendar method and we are careful for the 5 days before and the 3 days after ovulation time. You have to track your cycles for a while and be very regular in order to use this method though, and also be really in tune with your body and the ovulation signs that it gives."In Order to Succeed, Your Desire for Success Should be Greater Than Your Fear of Failure" - 05-31-2012, 03:26 PM
I can't tell you from personal experience how birth control affects weight loss since I've never used it. That said, tell her NOT to focus on the scale weight but on her BODY COMPOSITION - it's easy to lose scale weight, but if she loses bodyfat and gains a little muscle mass, it may not show much of a difference in scale weight, so do NOT put any emphasis or importance on scale weight! That said, 125 pounds for a female at 5'6" is pretty good - she likely doesn't need to get too much lighter or she'll probably end up sacrificing precious muscle mass to do it, and that's the LAST thing she wants to do.
As far as Erase, I use Erase, but not to "lower estrogen", and I do NOT recommend it for a woman who is not knowledgeable about such products or has little training and/or supplementation experience, regardless of her goals. Using products with AI properties are not something a female should do without knowing all the ins and outs of it, as well as being experienced.
Trust me when I say that you CAN lose bodyfat quite effectively if your nutrition and training are on point specifically for YOU re your goals and needs. The first thing I recommend she looks at is her nutrition - make sure she's eating ENOUGH, since the majority of females literally starve themselves (and OVERexericse) when trying to lose bodyfat, and this will only work against her. After changes have been made here, see what happens for a bit, and then if she still is at a plateau, then look at adjusting her training. Supplements should be the LAST thing she even considers.

The Syracusians went presently about the haven without fear and meditated how to shut up the same that the Athenians might not steal away without their knowledge, though they would.
For now they studied not only how to save themselves, but how to hinder the safety of the Athenians.
For the Syracusians conceived, not untruly, that their own strength was at this present the greater, and that if they could vanquish the Athenians and their confederates both by sea and land, it would be a mastery of great honour to them amongst the rest of the Grecians.
For all the rest of Greece should be one part freed by it, and the other part out of fear of subjection hereafter;
for it would be impossible for the Athenians, with the remainder of their strength, to sustain the war that would be made upon them afterwards.
And they, being reputed the authors of it, should be had in admiration, not only with all men now living, but also with posterity.
And to say truth, it was a worthy mastery, both for the causes shewn and also for that they became victors not of the Athenians only but many others, their confederates;
nor again they themselves alone but their confederates also, having been in joint command with the Corinthians and Lacedaemonians, and both exposed their city to the first hazard, and of the business by sea performed the greatest part themselves.
The greatest number of nations, except the general roll of those which in this war adhered to Athens and Lacedaemon, were together at this one city.

I landed on John 6. "Jesus Saw a large crowd coming and asked phillip where will we find enough food to feed all of these people. Hah-I thought kind of like us launching this church. WE've got this crowd coming on launch day, and we don't have enough money to buy the equipment we need to resource these people spiritually...displayed 300 characters
"Is this verse for me?" Jesus has allowed this lack of funds to happen to test us, and he already has in mind what he's going to do." I started to feel a little better. A little more confident and I read on. Phillip said, Lord it would take eight months wages to feed all of these people. And it was then that it occurred to me that the amount of the money we needed was exactly eight months of our staff salaries...displayed next 300 characters

Two big conference boosts on Friday: Colorado beat 16th-ranked Baylor 60-58 and UCLA won its battle to get Shabazz Muhammad eligible.
Let's start with the game. Colorado shot 4-for-19 at the free-throw line and won. Read that again. The Buffs gave away 15 points and beat the 16th-ranked team in the country on a neutral floor in South Carolina. Askia Booker scored 19 for Colorado. Andre Roberson scored seven and grabbed 12 rebounds.
It's a big win for the Buffs. Coach Tad Boyle told me he hoped Pac-12 teams learned last year that Colorado is about defense and rebounding. The conference is dutifully aware. As is Baylor now. The Bears shot 32.4 percent from the field Friday night and came in averaging 87 points in their first three games. Colorado held them to 58 points.
> UCLA and the conference received big news when the NCAA cleared would-be star freshman Shabazz Muhammad. He can play as soon as Monday against Georgetown (welcome to college basketball, kid).
"I am relieved that this long, arduous process has come to an end," UCLA Coach Ben Howland said in a statement. "So many people worked very hard on this case and I am eternally grateful to them as well as the Bruin family, who stood by us throughout. I am pleased that Shabazz will be able to begin his collegiate career."
Muhammad will be a nice addition to the conference. Teams that are likely to end up in the middle of the pack or just above it — like Oregon and perhaps Washington — can only benefit if the upper tier of UCLA and Arizona put together the high-end seasons expected.
But, UCLA isn't just Muhammad. Fellow freshman Kyle Anderson has been outstanding early. He's 6-9 with excellent floor vision and plays at a pace that belies his age.
> Oregon State's Devon Collier showed that he could be one of the better players in the conference by racking up career-bests in scoring, 27 points, and rebounding, 14, in Oregon State's 66-58 win over Purdue yesterday. But, Oregon State center Angus Brandt went down during the game with a non-contact injury. Oregon State told the TNT he has an injured right knee and will be assessed by doctors Sunday or Monday after flying back to Corvallis on Saturday. The fear is his injury could be one that ends his season.
> Oregon handled Vanderbilt 74-48 behind 22 points from E.J. Singler. UCLA getting Muhammad cleared wasn't the only important addition to the conference Friday. Oregon big man Arsalan Kazemi was also cleared and made his Oregon debut and had five points and seven boards in 21 minutes. Kazemi was very productive in three years at Rice, averaging a double-double the last two seasons.
> Now, for the not-so-good: Washington State lost 58-56 in overtime to Pepperdine. Yikes.
Brock Motum, who was sick, was just 4-for-13 from the field. This is the fear for WSU. If Motum can't efficiently score 20 points, who can step up? Royce Woolridge and DaVonte Lacy were a combined 6-for-17 and had seven turnovers. Mike Ladd was a productive 4-for-8.
> Utah lost to Sacramento State 74-71. At home.

Second Place: Fresca on Addision
Third Place: 821 Cafe
It takes confidence to call itself Richmond's best vegetarian restaurant, but after 15 years of solid success, Ipanema Cafe respectfully claims the title. Meat is never missed at this cellar-level clubhouse for students, hipsters, their parents, neighbors, musicians, artists and folks looking for an interesting twist on plant-based dining. A constantly changing menu has a fish dish thrown in, but otherwise teems with sauces, veggies and hearty grains. Wine, beer, live music, an earthy patio and a creative bohemian vibe add up to a low-key and affordable experience that fans flock to with loyalty. Regulars adore the simple storefront and patio dining at Fresca on Addison, where everything is meat-free and made fresh daily. Pizzas, sandwiches, soups and salads step just off the beaten path, and the staff knows how to meet a special request head-on. Nearby, vegetarians and meat lovers mingle at 821 Cafe, and no one seems to mind that a giant burger shares menu space with a tofu po' boy. At 821, there's something hearty and handmade for most anyone's taste, at a price point that wins applause.

On Friday, June 29th, Congress passed a comprehensive 27-month transportation bill after weeks of feverish negotiations among the bill's House and Senate conferees. A number of contentious issues had to be resolved before the bill conferees and Congressional leaders were able to finalize a deal, probably none more contentious than House GOP-backed provisions related to approval of the Keystone XL pipeline and EPA regulation of Coal Combustion Residuals ("CCRs" or "coal ash"). In response to President Obama's January decision not to approve TransCanada's proposed pipeline route, Rep. Lee Terry (R-NE) succeeded in including language in the House-passed transportation bill that would expedite the pipeline, after TransCanada agreed to re-route it away from the ecologically sensitive Sandhills region of Nebraska. While Congressional supporters of Rep. Terry's Keystone XL provision were hopeful that the transportation bill conferees would keep the provision in the final conference report, it is likely that the high-profile, politically-charged nature of the issue ultimately doomed its chances for inclusion in the conference report or another legislative vehicle this year. In order to counter EPA rulemaking that would potentially classify coal ash as a hazardous substance under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), Representative David McKinley (D-WV) introduced legislation, the Coal Residuals Reuse and Management Act (H.R. 2273), to prohibit such a classification and create national CCR management guidelines to be implemented by the states. H.R. 2273 passed the House last year with over 30 Democrats voting in favor of it. It was then passed by voice vote as an amendment to the House transportation bill. The Senate version of the McKinley bill (S. 1751), introduced by Senators Kent Conrad (D-ND) and John Hoeven (R-ND), also enjoyed bipartisan support, but was never voted on in the full Senate. Up until the last day of conference committee negotiations, it appeared that that the transportation bill conferees would include "compromise" CCR language, based on the McKinley bill. In the end, however, CCR language was not included in the conference report. Given the strong Congressional support for Representative McKinley's bill, particularly among key swing-vote Senate Democrats, it is likely that there will be another House-led effort to attach some version of the McKinley language to another legislative vehicle, perhaps as part of tax or deficit reduction legislation expected to be considered during a November-December "lame-duck" session. Another option would be to include "limitation" language in the Fiscal Year 2013 Interior-EPA Appropriations bill prohibiting EPA from using any federal funding to implement a regulation classifying CCRs as "hazardous waste." Yet another option, which was reportedly mentioned by Rep. Ed Whitfield (R-KY), a House conferee, would be to rescind the EPA regulation under the Congressional Review Act ("CRA"). Enacted as a means of giving the legislature an additional "check" on executive rulemaking, the CRA requires that Congress be given 60 days to pass a disapproval resolution on a rule before it takes effect. If the resolution passes both Houses within 60 days of the rule's submission and is subsequently signed by the President, the rule won't take effect. In March 2001, President George W. Bush signed S. J.Res. 6, Congress' joint resolution to rescind the Department of Labor's November 2000 ergonomics rule, marking the first and only time a final agency rule has been rescinded by the CRA.

Tropical Fish Keeping - Aquarium fish care and resources
- Advanced Freshwater Discussion
- - PH Problems
PH Problems So ive had my tank going for about 6 months now. Since ive started it I can not for the life of me get my PH lvls to balance out. Its stall right around a 7.8. Now i was told that was high for what I have. I have two Cichlids super red severum, and a jelly bean, also have a angle fish (was told this is part of the cichlid family had no clue), and a bristenose pleco. No live plants in the aquarium atm. All my other lvls have been reading fine. I did replace live rock to sand and added two clay jars and havent checked since but im sure it will still be high. Any help is welcomed. BTW my tap tested at like 8.2 PH. Its the only choice I have as i cant afford to go buy 20 gallons of treated water every other week. |
Just added water Parameters I just took. I did a water change yesterday when I added the new sand and took out the gravel. |
last i heard, cichlids are happy with a PH around 8. if your insistant on changing your water's PH, do it slowly if you have a pleco, what kind ? some pleco's prefer wood in the tank, ... actually they eat the wood - not all pleco's mind you. wood will also release tanin (tanic acid) into the water column and will try to lower the PH -in addition to turning your water a watered down tea color don't use any wood, there's safe wood, and unsafe wood unsafe wood is loaded it's it's own preservative to ensure it's own survival from disease and infection of the tree, ... some of these trees the toxin is ... to reduce this toxin, boil the wood, drain, and boil again, one species of tree the first water you get from this process can be used as an effective poison for killing in even small amounts, ... and other species of trees it's present just no where near those concentrations, ... not the stuff you want leeching into your tank. so find wood that is safe, ... or find aged wood that has had this toxin leached out of it by exposure to the elements for an extended period of time, ... just stay away from fresh/live wood. or you can play it safe and buy something from your LFS. --- now the scary part is over the good part wood has tanic acid that will lower your tanks PH wood is good for 'some' pleco's, (what kind of pleco do you have ? is this a concern) could solve 2 issues in one step. otherwise, if your tank inhabitants are doing fine, deliberatly changing water parameters is going to be a source of stress instead of helping bring the balance you seek.. other then that, i don't know how quickly the tanic acid in the wood will act, nor do i know how low it will try to drive the PH |
Your angles and other cichlids will love 7.8 ph. Also this will go down over time and with the addition of drift wood that your bristlenose pleco needs to survive. So you should add drift wood for ur pleco and ur ph is good where its at. Your cichlids and angles will be happy in ph range 7.5- 8. To lower ur ph from ur tap ur lfs should have a supplement to help with this go all natural if possible but with the water in ur tank at 7.8 mixing with the tap at 8.2 I would say you probably don't need a supplement. Posted via Mobile Device |
Ok thanks guys. I do have drift wood in not alot but a small piece. I can actually buy my drift wood straight out of the tanks they use to show the fish at the local fish store so I know its safe that way. Ive had it in there for about 3 months now havent seen a major change but I could need more, like i said its just a small piece. If yall say my PH is fine then ill just do what i can to keep it at 7.8 and not change it. Thanks all. |

Hmm... life and Perl. Life is like Perl, without use warnings, use strict, or -T.
Rarely are you about to make a mistake, and you're warned about it before you make it. In life, you seldom get a "you sure about that?" Inevitably, it comes back to get you. Sometimes, you just get into completely innocent misunderstandings that metasticize into huge problems, mixups, trying to find out who did what...something that can happen if you're not following all the rules. Lastly, sometimes you can take a completely appropriate reaction to an event life gives you, and it still blows up in your face. And that's my $0.02. In reply to Re: Life is:

Did you know that now you can get a complete cloth-diapering system at Walmart or Target.com? Well, you can! There's a brand new cloth-diapering option on the block, and it's making people stop and take notice. Mabu Baby Eco-Diaper System is not only available at big box retailers, making them accessible to pretty much everyone, they're also an ingenious hybrid between cloth and disposables.
Not only can you have the benefits of cloth, you can also enjoy the convenience of disposable inserts if you choose. Mabu Baby diapers come in great starter packs. Each package contains:
2 diaper outers
2 snap-in pad holders,
2 washable diaper pads
2 disposable diaper pads and
5 liners
EcoWix™ is designed to work as a wicking layer that keeps moisture away from baby's skin. Its porous structure absorbs and even helps break down odor causing substances. EcoWix™ has a much better absorption and ventilation rate compared to other conventional fabrics. And a dry baby is a happy baby!
Another thing I absolutely love about Mabu Baby is that there are handy laundry tabs that keep your diapers from getting all tangled up in the washer. I don't generally use hook and loop diapers because the resulting diaper chain is annoying to me, so I appreciate the laundry tabs on these diapers more than I can say.
As you can see, Mabu Baby Eco Diaper System offers a very new approach in cloth-diapering. It's an incredibly versatile system that is easy for anyone to use. I love the fact that you can seamlessly switch between reusable and washable inserts, too. I don't usually use disposable inserts, but these have come in very handy with cloth-resistant caregivers, as well as while on the go. It seems that the disposable insert option takes the "ick" factor out of diapering for those who don't care to handle and wash a cloth insert.
You can also use the bio-liners with the washable inserts to minimize mess and act as a barrier between the inserts and baby's delicate skin. While the instructions suggest that you stuff the liner into the pocket along with the insert of your choice, I prefer to simply lay it on top. This helps to effectively keep any messes from seeping into the pocket area and soiling the inserts. The bio liners also act as a wonderful barrier to keep any diaper rash creams off of the inserts. When using cloth inserts, this is absolutely essential if using creams that contain zinc oxide.
I know you're probably wondering how such an economical diapering solution holds up to the messes that 2 active toddlers make. Well, I tested Mabu Baby eco diapers on both of my babies during the daytime as well as overnight. I have used both the washable and reusable inserts several times and in several situations, like playtime, naps, and even overnight.
I was surprised to find that in all cases with both of my babies, these diapers performed amazingly well. The shell stayed dry at all times and so did my babies' skin. I have not had any rash issues or irritation using Mabu Baby, and they also seemed very comfortable for my toddlers to wear.
Another thing I noticed is that the messes were very well contained in the insert and snap-in pad holder. I didn't experience any poop creeping onto the shell of the diaper itself, even with my Xander who is the king of blowouts!
Take a look at my babies wearing their Mabu Baby diapers and enjoying the spring flowers!
In addition to the diapering system, I also got to review the Duzi Cloths and the Odor Gator!
What is the Odor Gator? It's a small little patch that can be used in trash cans, diaper pails, or anywhere stinky and smelly. Odor Gator™ technology captures gas molecules and converts them into harmless salt and water.Independent lab tests show that ammonia and trimethylamine gases are completely eliminated after 180 minutes! I have been using my Odor Gator in my most heavily used diaper pail for over a month now, and I am amazed by how effective it is at eliminating odors. I have tried baking soda discs and essential oils in the past, but the Odor Gator literally blows these methods out of the water! Finally I don't feel like I need a gas mask when dealing with my diaper pail. Who knew something so small and inconspicuous could pack such a punch?!
I also got to try the Duzi Cloth. This is a cloth that is made from wood fibers. Don't worry, once this cloth gets wet, it's actually very soft! The coolest part about the Duzi Cloth is that it naturally rinses free of bacteria, leaving no mold, mildew, or offensive odors behind. I have been using my Duzi Cloth on pretty much every surface. I have washed dishes with it, cleaned my stove, and even scoured pots and pans with it! It doesn't leave any scratches on delicate materials, and it does its job incredibly well. While you can wash the Duzi Cloth in the washing machine, it may decrease its lifespan. Instead, I simply use plain old dish soap and hot water. Good as new!
Overall, I am thrilled with my products from Mabu Baby. The diapers are straightforward and very versatile, hold up well against messes, and they're easy enough to use that even clumsy dads can use them with confidence. I love the fact that you can choose the greener, washable inserts or use the disposables. I also adore the Odor Gator and the Duzi Cloths. I have found that these items make my life as a busy mom easier every single day. I plan on purchasing more of these amazing products soon!
You can check out the awesomeness that is Mabu Baby on their website.
Mabu Baby Eco Diaper System can be purchased at Walmart and on the Target website!

She has already been nicknamed "Claire Bear" so of course I had to make her a little bear shirt. (And the fold is crooked, not the embroidery, I promise!) Baby gifts are so fun to make because they're such instant gratification.

For baby Claire
We have a new niece on the way, and she's all set to arrive tomorrow. Of course I had to make her something handmade, and I used this adorable Cosmo Cricket Girl Friday line. It's becoming really hard to find now, but it's perfectly girly and the colors are great. I made a disappearing nine-patch baby quilt that measures about 36x36, a couple of burp cloths, and a onesie.

Middle Dutch ruuch, Dutch ruig, Old High German ruher, German rauh), from Proto-Germanic *rukhaz, from PIE *reue- "to smash, knock down, tear out, dig up" (cf. Sanskrit ruksah "rough;" Latin ruga "wrinkle," ruere "to rush, fall violently, collapse," ruina "a collapse;" Lithuanian raukas "wrinkle," rukti "to shrink").

If your troops can get away, and you do not get into any more fights until your turn, then you may be able to control the opposing army in a limited way. Although you will not be able to move the army, they will be on the bottom panel instead of your characters. Double click on them, and click the disband button. You can not disband Lords.

Efficacy of antidepressants in adults

The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) recently recommended that antidepressants, in particular selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, should be first line treatment for moderate or severe depression.1 This conclusion has broadly been accepted as valid.2 The message is essentially the same as that of the Defeat Depression Campaign in the early 1990s, which probably contributed to the 253% rise in antidepressant prescribing in 10 years.1 From our involvement in commenting on the evidence base for the guideline we believe these recommendations ignore NICE data. The continuing concern that selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors may increase the risk of suicidal behaviourw1 w2 means there needs to be further consideration of evidence for the efficacy of antidepressants in adults as there has been in children.
Although the NICE meta-analysis of placebo controlled trials of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors found significant differences in levels of symptoms, these were so small that the effects were deemed unlikely to be clinically important.1 The conclusion that the drugs had clinically important benefits was based on analysis of response and remission rates. However, in our comments on the draft guidelines, we pointed out that these categorical outcomes were derived from the same continuous data for symptoms scores that were found to show no clinically relevant effects. As NICE notes, "dichotomising scores into remission and non-remission creates an artificial boundary, with patients just over the cut-off score often being clinically indistinguishable from those just under the cut-off."1
The hypothetical data in the figure show how small differences may be magnified by transformation of continuous data into categorical data.3 In this example, response was defined as a …

IQD's new IQOV-150 series OCXO satisfies the growing demand for low phase noise reference clocks for Analogue-to-Digital Conversion (ADC) and Digital-to-analogue Conversion (DAC), especially for very fast measurements and high speed data transfer.
Available at frequencies up to 1.2GHz, the new design is based upon an internal high frequency OCXO combined with additional frequency multiplication and special filtering to achieve very low phase noise down to -160dBc/Hz at 100kHz. The new design is housed in an industry standard IEC C008 5-pin Euro package measuring 36x27mm and only 16mm or 19mm high depending upon specification. Frequency stability is ±0.5ppm (parts per million) over the operating temperature range of -20 to +60°C along with a pulling capability of ±3ppm minimum. Working off a supply voltage of 12 Volts, the IQOV-150 offers Sinewave output of 0 to 13dBm into 50ohms.

text: The Anatomy of a CE Database RecordDecember 17, 2004 [From Developer.com]In this lesson, you'll finish examining the RemoteDBScan example program, devising a strategy by which to interpret and display the retrieved records. The first step is to get a handle on exactly what a CE database record is and how it is constructed. The CE Database RecordA CE database record is a compact and self-documenting block of variable size data, comprised of an array of CEPROPVAL structures. ... There are a couple of important things to note about the way CE treats its database records. First, a CE database record may be "sparse." Put another way, a record may or may not contain a value for each property. Also, a given CE database may contain only one record type. There is no explicit support for hierarchically structured data. Having said this, it is important to note that the member of the CEPROPVAL that stores record data is a union, one of whose members is of type BLOB. This means that should you need to create hierarchical data relationships, you can implement your own mechanisms for doing so, inside the record's data.
