Tropical Fish Keeping - Aquarium fish care and resources
- Freshwater and Tropical Fish
- - Water changes and aquarium size.
Water changes and aquarium size. I ran a 10 gallon tank succesfully for years on 20% water changes monthly. I only had small fish (neon tetras) and an aquarium crab though. So generally speaking in a tank half the size with similar stocking should the water changes be increased? How does this work?:shock: |
If you have lets say X fish in 10 gallon they are putting out (insert amount of waste) into ten gallons of water. Now imagine you take the same X fish and put them in a five gallon. Now they are still putting out (insert amount of waste). Your water is now taking in across five gallons what used to go into 10 gallons. The water gets more dirty faster. Thus you have to do water changes more often (or potentially more water per water change). Smaller tanks reach their limit's water wise faster than bigger ones. It's why smaller tanks are actually often more difficult to keep going versus larger ones. |
fish also give off chemicals to attract potential mates and deter predators, these are also removed in water changes. |
I forgot to add that the ratio of fish to water will be the same, so I will have half the amount of fish as I did in the 10 gallon. Will the 5 gallon still require more water changes just because it is smaller? |
Either a couple of neons or some catfish |
None in a 5g tank... |
Smaller ones like corys |
Tank is too small for any catfish..sorry. |

Beef prices remain at record highs, in part, because the U.S. has the smallest combined beef and dairy herd since 1951. While it's true there were only 87.7 million head of cattle on inventory this past January, lost in the headlines has been the fact that total U.S. beef production has been stable. That seldom discussed market fact remains possible because hanging carcass weights have improved by 250 pounds per animal over the past 60 years.
There are a number of factors that have led to a nearly 50 percent gain in dressed beef yields since 1951. Better nutrition, improved genetics, enhanced animal care along with a dash of scientific breakthrough in the form of growth enhancers have drastically improved the efficiency of meat production. As a result, market-ready cattle now yield 796 pounds compared to 544 pounds just six decades ago. Perhaps more impressive is that 20 percent of that 250-pound improvement happened during the past decade, as shown in the graph.
These profound developments make it rather shortsighted for industry analysts to simply quote cattle numbers when discussing beef markets. After all, it's total pounds of beef that matters most because consumers buy hamburgers and steaks, not cattle.
Unfortunately, the cattle industry has shown little interest in changing its ways. That stubbornness also has cost the beef checkoff dearly. While dairy promotion dollars continue to grow because collections are based on pounds of milk, not total head of dairy cows, the beef checkoff's budgets have approached record lows as reduced cattle numbers and inflation constantly chip away at promotion budgets.
While the collective appetite to reopen the beef checkoff funding mechanism is low, our entire industry would be far better served by focusing on pounds rather than head. By benchmarking the final product, everyone has a clearer snapshot of the true market dynamics from the farm's gate to the consumer's plate.

Sentencing Maria Rossi and Christina Molloy to be detained indefinitely at Her Majesty's Pleasure, the judge, Mr Justice Scott Baker, branded them 'evil products of the modern age'.
Their victim, Edna Phillips, 70, had known Rossi since she was a baby. But she boasted about the murder the next day and was heard singing 'We have killed Edna' to the tune of The Wizard of Oz. Even though they had never met, Rossi infected Molloy, her best friend, with her hatred of the pensioner, a neighbour on the Penywaun estate, near Aberdare, Mid-Glamorgan.
John Rees QC, for the prosecution, said the girls 'literally butchered' Miss Phillips on a warm evening last July after drinking cider and taking drugs. Mr Justice Scott Baker told the girls, who pleaded guilty to the murder: 'No one can be other than sickened at hearing the circumstances in which you mutilated and killed a defenceless old lady who had caused no harm to anyone. If as youngsters some discipline had been imposed upon you at home, at school, or through the courts, you might not now be standing in the dock . . .'
Neighbours said the Rossi family despised Miss Phillips for her complaints about their drunkenness and loud music. After Miss Phillips reported Maria Rossi to the police, she stoned her and abused her dog. If she saw her in the street she would shout 'fucking bitch'. As she grew into her teens, her vendetta became more cruel. She smeared excrement on her house and vandalised her belongings. Events spiralled out of control when she and Molloy saw Miss Phillips walking home last July. They frogmarched her into her house.
The court was told that the girls, both then 17, pulled on either end of a dog chain to strangle the 5ft pensioner. They slashed her face in a criss-cross pattern with a Stanley knife, stabbed her repeatedly in the chest and face with a pair of scissors, ripped at her body with a jagged piece of glass, smashed eggs on her corpse and stole her pension money, vacuum cleaner and radio. When they returned home after the killing Rossi told her family: 'I've done it, I've killed Edna.'
When the girls were charged, a 300- strong mob stormed the homes of both families, smashing their windows. Both families now live at secret addresses.
Christopher Pitchford QC, for Rossi, 18, said she had shown remorse and had nightmares in which her grandmother was substituted for Miss Phillips. The court was told that she had previous convictions for theft and possession of drugs. Gerard Elias QC, for Molloy, also 18, who had two previous convictions, for assault and criminal damage, said she could not recall the murder.
A 14-year-old boy with 43 convictions, who went on the run while awaiting sentence for a sex attack on a 15- year-old girl, was warned yesterday by a judge at Durham Crown Court to change his life or end up in jail. The boy, from Newcastle upon Tyne, was arrested for the 21st time in a year hours after being freed on bail for pre-sentence reports. He now faces charges of taking a vehicle, damaging four police cars and theft. He was remanded into the care of Newcastle social services.
Police are hunting three 10-year-old boys after a woman in her 80s was knocked to the ground and robbed at Chadderton, near Oldham, last night. She was taken to Royal Oldham hospital with serious injuries.

- a magazine or even some cute paper
- scissors
- hot glue gun
- ribbon
Cut your circles into a spirals (again, you could draw a spiral on your circle first, but we just cut into them!).
Starting from the outside of your spiral, roll tightly inward.
Once your spiral is fairly tightly wound, let it go and you will see how it is resembling a rose.
Fire up your hot glue gun and begin gluing your "roses" to your frame. Hold them down for a few minutes to make sure they hold.
Continue doing these steps until your wreath is completely covered! Just attach your ribbon to the back of the frame and in no time you'll have a fun and pretty wreath!
At this point you can spray paint it, but we left ours as-is. We like that little bits of the different colors peek out!

Synonyms[2] | |
Cuvier's dwarf caiman (Paleosuchus palpebrosus) is a small crocodilian from northern and central South America in the alligator family. It is found in Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana, Paraguay, Peru, Surinam and Venezuela. It lives in riverine forests, flooded forests near lakes, and near fast-flowing rivers and streams. It can traverse dry land to reach temporary pools and tolerates colder water than other species of alligator. Other common names for this species include the musky caiman, the dwarf caiman, Cuvier's caiman and the smooth-fronted caiman. It is sometimes kept in captivity as a pet and may be referred to as the wedge head caiman by the pet trade.
Cuvier's dwarf caiman was first described by the French zoologist Georges Cuvier in 1807 and is one of only two species in the genus Paleosuchus, the other species being P. trigonatus. Their closest relatives are the other caimans in the subfamily Caimaninae. With a total length averaging 1.4 m (4.6 ft) for males and typically up to 1.2 m (3.9 ft) for females, Cuvier's dwarf caiman is not only the smallest extant species in the alligator and caiman family, but also the smallest of all crocodilians. An adult will typically weigh around 6 to 7 kg (13 to 15 lb). Its lack of size is partly made up for by its strong body armour, provided by the bony bases to its dermal scales, which provides protection against predators. Juvenile dwarf caimans mainly feed on invertebrates, but also small fish and frogs, while adults eat larger fish, amphibians and invertebrates, such as large molluscs. This caiman sometimes uses a burrow as shelter during the day and in the Pantanal may aestivate in the burrow in order to stay cool in the dry season. The female buries her eggs on a mounded nest and these take about three months to hatch. She helps the hatchlings to escape from the nest and provides some parental care for the first few weeks of their life. This caiman has a wide range and large total population and the IUCN lists its conservation status as being of "least concern".
Etymology and taxonomy[edit]
Cuvier's dwarf caiman was first described by the French zoologist Georges Cuvier in 1807 as Crocodylus palpebrosus from a type locality described as "Cayenne". Since then, it has been given a number of names by different authorities: Crocodilus (Alligator) palpebrosus (Merrem, 1820), Jacaretinga moschifer (Spix, 1825), Champsa palpebrosa (Wagler, 1830), Alligator palpebrosus (Dumeril and Bibron, 1836), Champsa gibbiceps (Natterer, 1841), Caiman palpebrosus (Gray, 1844), Caiman (Aromosuchus) palpebrosus (Gray, 1862) and Jacaretinga palpebrosus (Vaillant, 1898). Muller, in 1924, and Schmidt, in 1928, were the first to use the currently accepted name of Paleosuchus palpebrosus. No subspecies are recognised.[3]
The genus Paleosuchus contains only two members, Paleosuchus trigonatus, commonly known as the smooth-fronted or Schneider's dwarf caiman, and Paleosuchus palpebrosus, both from South America. Paleosuchus is distinguished from other caimans in the alligator subfamily Caimaninae by the absence of an inter-orbital ridge and the presence of four teeth in the premaxilla region of the jaw where other species of caiman have five.[3] The genus name Paleosuchus is derived from the Greek palaios meaning "ancient" and soukhos meaning "crocodile". This refers to the belief that this crocodile comes from an ancient lineage that diverged from other species of caiman some thirty million years ago. The specific name palpebrosus is derived from the Latin palpebra meaning "eyelid" and osus meaning "full of". This refers to the bony plates (palpebrals) present on the upper eyelids.[3]
Common names include the musky caiman, the dwarf caiman, Cuvier's caiman and the smooth-fronted caiman,[4] although the last of these is also used to refer to the closely related Paleosuchus trigonatus. In the pet trade, it is sometimes referred to as the wedge head caiman.[5]
Phylogenetic relations of Paleosuchus palpebrosus within Caimaninae.[6] |
Cuvier's dwarf caiman is the smallest living New World crocodilian. Males grow to a maximum length of about 1.6 metres (5 ft 3 in) while females do not usually exceed 1.2 metres (3 ft 11 in).[3] The largest specimen on record measured 1.72 m (5.6 ft) in length.[7] This may be an underestimate of the animal's maximum size as nearly all large adults have lost the tips of their tails and the largest specimen measured in the Pantanal region had a snout-to-vent length of 1.125 m (4 ft) (equivalent to a total length of 2.1 m (6.9 ft) with an intact tail).[8] An adult will typically weigh around 6 to 7 kg (13 to 15 lb), around the same weight as a 6–12-month-old specimen of several larger species of crocodilians.[9] The Cuvier's dwarf caiman has strong body armour on both the dorsal (upper) and ventral (lower) sides which may compensate for its small body size in reducing predation. The dermal scales that provide this protection have a bony base and are known as osteoderms.[3][10]
The head has an unusual shape for a crocodilian, with a dome-shaped skull and a short smooth, concave snout with an upturned tip, the shape rather resembling the head of a dog. The upper jaw extends markedly further forward than the lower jaw. There are four pre-maxillary and fourteen to fifteen maxillary teeth on either side of the upper jaw and twenty-one or twenty-two teeth on each side of the lower jaw giving a total of about eighty teeth. The neck is relatively slender and the dorsal scutes are less prominent than in the smooth-fronted caiman (Paleosuchus trigonatus). The double row of scutes on the tail are small and project vertically. Adults are dark brownish-black with a dark brown head while juveniles are brown with black bands. The iris of the eye is chestnut brown at all ages and the pupil is a vertical slit.[3][10]
The scutellation (arrangement of the scales) helps to distinguish Cuvier's dwarf caiman from Schneider's dwarf caiman (details of latter in brackets)[3]
- Post occipitals - Usually 2 rows (usually 1 row)
- Nuchals - Usually 4 to 5 rows (usually 4 rows but sometimes 5)
- Dorsals - 18 longitudinal rows and 6 to 10 transverse rows, neatly arranged, with 4 rows between hind legs (18 longitudinal and 6 to 7 transverse rows, haphazardly arranged, with usually 2 rows between hind legs)
- Ventrals - 21 to 22 longitudinal rows and 16 transverse (19 to 21 longitudinal and 10 to 12 transverse rows)
- Tail - Single crest, usually 19 to 21 scales (17 to 19 scales)
- Tail - Double crest, usually 9 or 10 rows (usually 9 or 10 rows)
- Tail - Lateral, small scales disrupt 2 or 3 rows (5 to 8 rows)
Distribution and habitat[edit]
Cuvier's dwarf caiman is native to tropical northern and central South America. It is present in the drainages of the Orinoco River, the São Francisco River and the Amazon River, and the upper reaches of the Paraná River and the Paraguay River.[10] The countries in which it is found include Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Venezuela, Guyana, Surinam, French Guiana, Brazil, Bolivia and Paraguay. The range of this species is rather larger than that of the sympatric smooth-fronted caiman, as it extends into Paraguay and includes a larger area of Brazil.[3]
Cuvier's dwarf caiman is a freshwater species and is found in forested riverine habitats and areas of flooded forest around lakes. It seems to prefer rivers and streams with fast-flowing water, but it is also found in quiet, nutrient-poor waters in Venezuela and southeastern Brazil. It is able to travel quite large distances overland at night and sub-adult individuals have sometimes been found in isolated, temporary pools. In the northern and southern parts of its range, it is also found in gallery forests in savannah country, but it is absent from such habitats in Los Llanos and the Pantanal. Cuvier's dwarf caiman seems relatively tolerant of cool water compared to other species of alligator. During the day, individuals sometimes lie up in burrows[3][10] but at other times rest on piles of rocks or sun themselves while lying, facing the sun, in shallow water with their backs exposed.[11]
Behaviour and ecology[edit]
Cuvier's dwarf caiman is mainly nocturnal. Adults feed on fish, amphibians, small mammals, birds, crabs, shrimps, molluscs and other invertebrates, which they catch in the water or on land. Juveniles eat fewer fish, but also consume crustaceans, tadpoles, frogs and snails as well as land invertebrates, such as beetles.[3] The prey is mostly swallowed whole and is ground up by stones in the gizzard.[11] In the Pantanal, Cuvier's dwarf caiman aestivates in burrows during the dry season and is able to maintain its temperature at around 22 °C (72 °F) for days at a time.[12]
Adult Cuvier's dwarf caiman are usually found singly or in pairs. The breeding of this species has been little studied but it does not appear to be seasonal in nature. The female builds a mound nest out of vegetation and mud somewhere in a concealed location and lays a clutch of from 10 to 25 eggs, hiding them under further vegetation. The incubation period is around 90 days and the sex of the hatchlings depends on the temperature of the nest during that time. When the eggs begin to hatch, the female opens the nest in response to the calls made by the young. Newly emerged juveniles have a coating of mucus and may delay entering the water for a few days until this has dried. Its continuing presence on their skin is believed to reduce algal growth. The female stays with the young for a few weeks after which time the hatchlings disperse. The young grow at the rate of about 8 to 10 cm (3 to 4 in) per year and reach sexual maturity at around eight years.[3][11]
Cuvier's dwarf caiman is considered to be a keystone species whose presence in the ecosystem maintains a healthy balance of organisms. In its absence, fish, such as piranhas, might dominate the environment. The eggs and newly hatched young of Cuvier's dwarf caiman are most at risk and are preyed on by birds, snakes, rats, raccoons and other mammals. Adult caimans are protected by the bony osteoderms under the scales and their main predators are jaguars, green anacondas (Eunectes murinus) and large boa constrictors (Boa constrictor).[11]
Status and conservation[edit]
Many crocodilians are hunted for their skins, but this is not the case with the Cuvier's dwarf caiman. This may be because the ventral skin in this species is too heavily armoured to make it easy to tan. Some individuals are killed by indigenous peoples for food and others, particularly in Guyana, are collected for the pet trade; but there is no evidence that populations are dwindling as a result.[3] There are some threats to this species from habitat destruction, including the mining of gold, but these are not thought to be of great significance. The estimated total population is over one million individuals.[3]
In its Red List of Threatened Species, the IUCN lists Cuvier's dwarf caiman as being of "Least Concern". This is because its range is extensive, covering much of northern and central South America, and although its population trend is unknown, it appears to be abundant in many of the localities in which it is found.[1] It is listed in Appendix II of CITES.[13]
Captive care[edit]
Cuvier's dwarf caiman can be kept as a pet, though providing suitable care is expensive and requires extremely large enclosures. In many countries, permits or licenses are necessary and most veterinarians have little experience of these exotic animals.[14]

Exercise Video Reviews: Moving With Susan by Susan Powter
categories: Video, Fitness, Exercise VideoManufacturer: Susan Powter, Corp.
Brand: Susan Powter Corp.
This video is very motivating. I used it back in 1996 and got down to a size 5, 6. In 2004 I tore my ankle up and couldn't walk and do my 5 mile power walks as I did prior and gained weight back. I have now started the tape again and it's so motivational. I have lost 19 pounds with 25 to go. I need to look good by June 1st to walk my daughter down the isle. I really wish they would put this VHS on a DVD. My tape is getting old and have spots that mess up. I think it would be a big hit if brought out on DVD.It Really Does Work!
I love, love, love this video! Like previous reviewers have already said, Susan is so very motivating. Throughout the video she talks about modifying, whether up or down and reminding us that it's OK if we can't keep up- to just keep moving (by modifying), so long as we never lose the form, which is key. She is truly inspirational. The exercises are very easy to follow, but the workout itself is NOT easy, IF you do the exercises correctly. I always sweat rivers by the time I'm done! I get a much better work out here than at the gym! I really recommend this video. Susan explains every move that she presents in a very easy to follow manner. I loved this video back in the 90's and now I'm so glad to have found it again! It really never does get old!▾ reviews voted most helpful on amazon.com ▾

Water can be a high-priced and damaging kind of loss and is normally considered to be the "most common" sort of home and commercial water damage. Home gadgets such as water heaters, dishwashers, machine washers and toilets can overflow, back up, or merely stop working and the effect of the overflow of water to the living and work areas are far reaching. Also, sewer backups and broken pipes can create major problems with water damage, particularly with a basement flood.
That is why your local Kenilworth Illinois team is experienced and schooled in the extraction and removal of excess water. They handle all of your water damage clean up and water remediation needs fully and also take care of any sewage damage repair and cleanup needs completely to eliminate the danger of microbial contamination.
Our equipment is state of the art:
We use:
- Moisture detectors/readers to determine the amount and location of the water if not detected by the human eye.
- Gas powered pumps to remove vast amounts of standing water.
- Portable extraction units are used when the truck mounted units cannot reach the affected areas.
- Industrial grade dehumidifiers are used after the excess water has been extracted
- High speed fans and air movers are placed on carpets, padding and furniture to minimize damage
The art of dehumidification is backed by science. Location, placement and timing is the key–the faster we are called, the quicker we are able to begin our services of extraction and dehumidification.
Prompt response makes sure inexpensive reaction, but many times we are called in after our clients have been away from the home or office for an extended amount of time. Therefore we use our best attempts to respond to remove water and moisture from ;
- Drywall
- Paint
- Cabinets
- Carpets
- Flooring (tile and hardwood included!)
- Insulation
- Flooded basements
- Cellars and crawl spaces
Kenilworth's team will strategically place and frequently move the fans and dehumidifiers as the drying takes place. Over the period of a few days or more, we will visit your home or office and inspect our equipment to ensure maximum abetment and moisture removal, saving time and money on costly replacement projects.

text: Customer Testimonial pageWire Shelving Enclosures and Customer Service"I ordered shelf enclosures, ran into a snag, had to return one and order a different size. I also had broken one of the plastic clips and the lady I spoke with said she would include a couple extra with the replacement order. She was absolutely delightful to speak with (I wish I could recall her name), and truthfully, I was skeptical about the extra clips, and sure enough, they were there, even with a handwritten note on the hardware box section that they were located in there.-Chris Karnes Chrome Wire Shelving"We love living in San Francisco where the hills are huge and the opportunities are never-ending. Unfortunately, on our budget, that means living with a kitchen that is small and narrow, with not nearly enough shelves. We love to experiment with new recipes and cook dinner for friends, so we knew we needed more kitchen shelving. The Shelving Store let us build a unit with just the right dimensions to fit our unique space, and the shiny chrome adds a fun sparkle to the room. Now we would recommend the Shelving Store to all our city-dwelling friends!"-Sara, San Francisco The Shelving Store ProductsBall Claws"Your Ball Claws Rock!"-John The Shelving Store ProductsSchulte Closet Storage"Amy, your designer helped me create this custom scrapbooking closet and workspace with the Schulte products. I am really happy with it, I can store all of my stuff and just close the closet doors when Im done working. Thank you so much! Here's a before and after photo!"-Wendy The Shelving Store ProductsMore Customer TestimonialsKids Caribbean (Marine) Blue Locker"I ordered 2 short blue lockers for my boys ages 8 and 5 for Christmas and I just wanted to let you know that of all of the gazillion things they received from us, grandparents and santa that these are the absolute favorites! They've already decorated them w/ magnets and drawings etc. Everything cherished goes into to those lockers. boy, what a hit! Thanks, I'm so glad I ordered them!"-Melissa 72" 5 Shelf Storage System-White"I absolutely love my freedomRail System. It was easy to install and is so versatile. freedomRail is terrific in my sewing and craft room. I am only 5 feet tall so the shelves are great for my sewing machine because they are adjustable to fit my height. The smaller drawers are perfect to organize my thread and the taller drawers store all of my other crafts and patterns. The Shoe Cubby organizes all of my scissors, bobbins and other loose items. I can't say enough about how useful this shelving system is. I don't know what I would do without it!"-Kristi, A Happy Crafter The Shelving store"In this age of "no service" anywhere, it was a very pleasant surprise to find there is still "service" available. (Your Staff) was efficient, helpful, made good suggestions and I am very happy with the shelving results I now have in my craft workshop. My only regret is that I live too far away to shop regularly at your store, I would most definitely recommend The Shelving Store.Your company is to be commended on it's selection of personnel."-Joyce, Muskego, WI Replacement Shelves"I received the replacement shelf today. Couldn't have been any faster! I really appreciate how kind & helpful you were regarding the defect & replacement. Some places can be so hard to deal with over the most minor problems. You are a breath of fresh air. Plus slowly my basement is getting uncluttered & organized. fyi- I bought shelves from both you & Frongate. You have much better options with respect to size , but what really sets you apart are the casters. Yours are much sturdier. Looking forward to getting a few more as money becomes available."-Lynn |

In the Philippines, two libido boosting teas are making waves—Honey Moon Tea and Lee MF-Rhino Tea. Readily available at Mercury Drug Stores, these teas are manufactured by Tai Ping Trading Co., Ltd. (Honey Moon) and Wei Hui Trading Company (Lee MF-Rhino), respectively. Both companies are based in Hong Kong. Advertising for these products have been minimal, being confined to magazines like FHM men's magazine and others, but awareness of these products have been spreading by word of mouth and sales are constant, even as people talk about these libido products in hushed tones.
Many people are curious to know what's in them and if they really work to increase libido. In a post on Lee MF-Rhino Tea, also in this blog, A Taste of the Philippines, some of the questions typically asked by people about that product have been answered. But many have also been asking about the Honey Moon Tea, and this article should be able to shed some light on the product and its ingredients. It does not go into details about the specific ingredients, though. But it should be enough.
The sachets also use the same Chinese artwork on Chinese Emperor Kao Tsung and his wives. But, only the Lee MF-Rhino Tea packaging says that it's "for men," although the Diamond Laboratories distributor site says Honey Moon Tea is a "Love Potion for Men." The FHM ad also says "Herbal Tea for Men." Even with the same basic ingredients, the components of Honey Moon Tea are actually greater than those in Lee MF-Rhino Tea in terms of weight. We can assume that Honeymoon Tea is much stronger than Lee MF-Rhino Tea—which is perhaps why it is also more expensive.
The following list the ingredients of both Honey Moon and Lee MF-Rhino teas. You can see here which ingredients are shared by both brands and which ones are unique to the other.
Honey Moon Tea Lee MF-Rhino Tea
Herba Epimedu leaves .525 g Herba Epimedii .325 g
Herba Cyanomoru stem .525 g Herba Cynomorii .325 g
Woodwardia Japonic .500 g NOT INCLUDED
Fructus Polygalea .475 g Fructus Polygalae .300 g
Yang Gong Cao aerial .425 g NOT INCLUDED
Radix Polygalea root .425 g Radix Polygalae .325 g
Semen Astralagi Complanati .400 g Semen Astralagi .250 g
Radix Ginseng root .400 g Radix Ginseng .250 g
Pilose Antler antler .325 g Pilose Antler .125 g
NOT INCLUDED Rizoma Cibotii .325 g
NOT INCLUDED Rizoma Drynariae .275 g
You can see that two ingredients in Honey Moon Tea, Woodwardia Japonic rhizomes (wasabi) and Yang Gong Cau aerial are not in Lee MF-Rhino Tea. On the other hand, Rizoma Cibotii (for back and knee aches) and Rizoma Drynariae (for bone strength), are not in Honey Moon Tea.
The ingredients of Honey Moon Tea and Lee MF-Rhino Tea are used in traditional Chinese medicine. They do not necessarily simply increase libido. Some of them are used to treat various ailments, which may be circulatory or respiratory in nature. But generally, the ingredients appear to be put together in these products as energy boosters. Herba Epimedu increases testosterone in the body. Testosterone is basically the hormone responsible for libido, and increasing the level of this in the body also works to increase sex drive in both men and women.
Both Honey Moon and Lee MF-Rhino teas come in granular and semi-powdered form. If you sprinkle a few grains on your tongue, you will find that both products are slightly sweet to the taste. But you should only use about half a cup of water with the contents of a sachet, otherwise, the tea will taste bland. Otherwise, just add sugar.
Drinking a sachet of Honey Moon Tea produces a stimulating, but mild, effect. It's not like the sensation that caffeine in coffee produces but it kind of gives a warmth that begins in the chest and neck area and moves outwards to the body extremities. After ten minutes or so, you may feel a warmth on your face and hands. You may feel a tingling sensation in the body and this may be "uplifting" for both men and women. It's at this point that you know the tea is working its magic on you, and/or your partner. With a little creativity, you can capitalize and even maximize this effect.
As of this writing, Honey Moon Tea costs P91 per sachet at Mercury Drug store, compared to Lee MF-Rhino Tea, which is available in a thee-sachet promo pack for only P75. If you're wondering which is better to purchase, then it's likely Lee MF-Rhino Tea. Why settle for one sachet when you can have three that contains basically the same things as the other brand? Just add more than one sachet to your glass or mug and you've got a more potent brew! Be careful that you do not overdose and always test first to see if you are allergic to the teas. Always consult a real doctor about taking health supplements.

Selling American Muscle in Germany?
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com I am moving to Germany in a month (military). I am faced with a couple decisions. Do I sell or keep my '12 SRT8? I've decided to sell. So, I can either sell here or in Germany. I received an offer for about a grand shy of my target price. However, I heard in Germany people will pay big bucks for an SRT8 (or American Muscle in general). Being in Germany, I will have the opportunity to buy any German car at a massive discount- including Porsche. So, I've decided I will buy a Porsche Macan while over there. Does anyone have any experience selling a higher end American muscle car in Europe? Should I curb my expectations and sell here at a minimum loss or roll the dice in Germany? The later sounds like a high-risk, high-reward option. Again, if you have experience in this sort of thing- I'd love to hear. For reference, I am looking at about $1,100 to ship to Germany and I do not have to pay import taxes, etc. once there ... mit tiefer Dankbarkeit

Hi. I was duty stationed in the UK for three years from '99-'01. I brought a left hand drive US spec car with me and could have easily sold it for a profit. As a matter of fact, go buy a Harley Davidson before you leave as motorcycles unlike cars are shipped under your personal effects allowance. You'll make a killing.
But to your question, is it worth doing for your car? Yes, because you could drive it there vice buying a local car, and then sell before you leave. Certain US cars, Mustangs, Corvettes, etc. sell much better than your ride, but eh, who cares. There is absolutely a market for ALL US muscle cars in Europe. Only caution is the process to get a proper German MOT (or whatever they call it) which will be necessary for you to sell it to a local. The car will require a single rear fog light and euro spec headlights even for you to be able to drive it. However, there are additional tests that will be required before you'll be able to sell it. My advice is to prep the car and conduct the process to sell. And if the price isn't great, just keep it and bring it home. PS - I've purchased three cars under the diplomatic and military sales program. It's awesome. Good luck. David |

Broadcast- Mother Is The Milky Way
Broadcast's 2009 Tour only EP. Atmospheric abstraction ala Ghostbox has crept its way into Broadcast's sound as of late. This release feels somewhat like vintage Brigitte Fontaine alongside analog synths, vocal samples and echo effects. Pop music concrete?! *Thanks to Mr. Tim Lake for the heads-up on this one.

We loved our weekend at Cafe Tamayo. We arrived Friday evening and had an amazing dinner followed by a lovely evening upstairs. The room was just charming, comfortable with perfect touches to allow for relaxing in the room. Saugerties offered more than we had expected and we actually didn't leave the village on Saturday and decided to dine at Cafe Tamayo again on Saturday evening since Friday had been so perfect. I can't wait to go again.

Friendly hostess; excellent restaurant; rooms very well maintained. Sat Dinner is great bargain, wonderfully creative food.

The Label

It Bites
Officially launched in 1984, UK-based IT BITES are still a relevant and thought-provoking
entity in 2012. Hailed as everything from prog to pop to art rock over the course of their
career – which was temporarily halted by a 16 year break between 1990 and 2006 – the band
continues to boast a diversity that has even their most devout fans guessing from album to
album. Their new outing, Map Of The Past, keeps this tradition alive and kicking.
"Basically, it's about going back through the past and fixing everything that ever went wrong
in a person's life. It's simple enough, because everyone looks back at the past with a mistyeyed
longing. Most people remember their childhood fondly and are nostalgic about those
things; it's almost as if the past has a champagne filter on it. Some of it is a bit blurry, and
you can't revisit it, so that's where the intrigue comes from."
Map of the Past is the first concept album of It Bites twenty-five year career. It explores the
theme of the past, as seen through old family photographs. There is a constant sense of
nostalgia running through all of the songs and the listener gets to visit The Titanic along the
musical journey.
John Mitchell and John Beck wrote the album over the course of 2011 and it was recorded at
Outhouse Studios in Reading. Founder members Bob Dalton were joined by the multi-talented
John Mitchell on guitars and lead vocals and Lee Pomeroy completes It Bites 2012 on Bass and
backing vocals.
"There's never been a process where we've said 'We need to do this here, we need a fast
song there…' That's not how it works for us. Music is quite a fantastical notion, really. There
was the thing in the '90s where everyone wanted to wear lumberjack shirts and gaze at their
shoes (laughs), but I think music should be about escapism and other-worldliness. There's
enough dull shit that you have to deal with on a day-to-day basis, so the more preposterous
we could make this record the better. So we did. We put the London Symphony Orchestra all
over it and made it ridiculous. We wanted to make an album that's better and more
ridiculous than the last one (laughs)."
"Ridiculous" meaning a complete disregard for any preconceived notion of what an It Bites
record should sound like.
"This band has never fit into any particular category, ever since I was a fan," says Mitchell.
"They weren't a prog rock band, they weren't a pop band, they weren't a metal band. They
dipped their toes into so many music areas over the years it's difficult to pigeonhole this
"Everybody needs to compartmentalize a band because it makes them feel comfortable, but
that's not the essence of music. Music should challenge people even as they're enjoying it. It
should make them think.
"That's the fun of it. I want it to be so fantastic, and I don't want it to be taken too
seriously. I want people to listen to us and have the music take them on a journey.

It's been such a long time since I've changed my theme... can someone run me through how to do it again?
It's been such a long time since I've changed my theme... can someone run me through how to do it again?
Got a wallpaper link for that?
And not a single rotation was given that day.
I just downloaded these from their website...
Never used UxStyle before. How is it different from UXTheme Multi-Patcher?
It looks for the function in memory and patches it there so you don't need to patch system files. It runs as a service. If any of the three or four dlls get updated with newer versions it'll still work and you won't have to wait for an update to a hard patch.
That patcher works best for me, though. I've used UxStyle before on multiple PCs but it would break when I would try to apply a new theme. I'd have to uninstall and reinstall UxStyle before I can apply new themes.
I can't find how to make custom themes anywhere on the net - i'm not talking about the regular change-your-window-border-color-and-apply-a-wallpaper-shit, i'm talking about actually changing the look of the window borders and anything
I can only find those stupid 49$ theme creator programs - do you have to use one of those? It really looks like you can't create those themes by hand (those msstyle files or whatever all seem to be binary gibberish... they're not even zip files or anything?)
Probably a good thing HAL didn't initialize...
Thank you for the explanation.
I've emailed the guy asking if he has larger version of it. No idea what his response will be, his drawings are mad.

You've been standing at the sink for what seems forever, washing every last plate, glass and piece of silver your family owns, and just about the time you think you're done and ready to pull the plug to let out the wash water, somebody unceremoniously plops yet ANOTHER dirty pan in your sink. You sigh, resign yourself to scrubbing it clean, and get back to work.
Multiply this experience by 100 and you'll get a good sense of what cheesemaking is all about. It's not just about making cheese - it's about washing, rinsing and sanitizing every last piece of stainless steel in a cheese factory. Over and over. And then once more to just to make sure.
I've got to admit, the few times cheesemakers have let me in their make rooms to watch the cheesemaking process, my apron and boots have pretty much just been for looks. I'm usually busy taking photos, asking questions, and writing notes.
That all changed last Wednesday when the head cheese buyer at Fromagination invited me to tag along and make cheese with him and Willi Lehner, of Bleu Mont Dairy near Blue Mounds. Willi owns his own cheese cave on his farm, but doesn't own his own cheese factory, so he takes turns renting out different cheese vats and time at neighboring cheese plants. Last week, he was off to Roelli Cheese in Shullsburg to make a batch of his Earth Schmier and a new type of blue cheese he's going to call Bleu Mont Bleu. And I got to ride along.
We arrived at Willi's house at 5 a.m., jumped in his pick-up, and were at Roelli Cheese by 6 a.m. I had brought along my boots, so I put them on, and got out my notebook and camera to start taking pictures. And then I promptly put them away when Willi told me to find an apron because I was going to hold the hopper to fill the cheese forms.
Alrighty then.
Chris graciously loaned me an apron, and being the eternal optimist I am, I stuffed my camera in my pocket, thinking I could take photos and told whatever a hopper was at the same time. Turns out, not so much. Because holding a hopper while Willi dumps pail after pail of very wet curd and whey to fill 50 forms of cheese is a full-time job. And messy. And really wet. By the time we were done, I was pretty much covered in cheese goo and had no photos. But I did get one shot of Willi smoothing over the curd when were done (above). Whoo-hoo!
Holding the hopper to fill the cheese forms was the beginning of a long, tiring and extremely fun and fulfilling day. After we filled the forms for the Earth Schmier, it was time to make the Bleu Mont Bleu. I got my hands dirty. And washed them. And sanitized them. Again and again. I lifted curd out of the vat, squished it into forms, carried it to the press table and assembled the presses. All in between washing dishes. Over and over. Every time you touch anything in a cheese plant, you have to wash it. And your hands. And then once more, just to make sure.
By 1:30 p.m., I have to admit, I pretty much thought I was going to die. I hadn't worked this hard since I was a kid on the farm. And that's when I was young and in shape. I'm now middle-aged and very much out of shape. I also very much now know why every cheesemaker I've ever met has some serious muscles. I'm thinking I've found a new exercise regimen ... only the curd I eat while making cheese will probably zero out the calories I'm burning.
Oh well, it's worth it! Thanks to Willi and Chris for a cheesemaking education and I'm looking forward to eating Earth Schmier and Bleu Mont Bleu in a couple of months. Look for it at the Dane County Farmer's Market, where Willi sells his cheese every Saturday between April and November.

The spirit of independence Damian Riley-Smith visits the home of Julian Van Winkle III, a nam dedicated to producing quality bourbon and adhering to traditional, family values. February 2001, Issue 14, page 48
Old Rip Van Winkle's 15 Years Old, Family Reserve Bourbon - U.S.A. - 53.50% 8 Big . Rich. Hearty. Robust.
Pappy Van Winkle 15 Years Old, Family Reserve Bourbon - U.S.A. - 53.50% 8 A big guy. On a frosty Christmas Eve maybe, waiting for Santa Claus by the fireplace. No risk of falling asleep with this fellow!
Pappy Van Winkle 20 Years Old, Family Reserve Bourbon - U.S.A. - 45.20% 8 Showing its age, but I like its big, earthy, old-fashioned American flavours.
Pappy Van Winkle 20 Years Old, Family Reserve Bourbon - U.S.A. - 45.20% 7 The family propensity to fall asleep seems to have struck in the bottle; given a chance to breathe and a drink of water, it comes back to life.
Pappy Van Winkle Family Reserve, 23 Years Old Bourbon - U.S.A. - 47.80% 7 Big and robust but very drinkable and soothing.
Van Winkle 12 Years Old, Lot B Bourbon - U.S.A. - 45.20% 8 This should obviously be an ingredient of all self-respecting desserts. An accompaniment to them, too. And an after dinner drink. You are in a dry county? So what?
Van Winkle 13 Years Old, Family Reserve Rye Rye - U.S.A. - 47.80% 8 Showing its age. It seems to have lost a little liveliness but, if you were as rich as this, would you care?
Van Winkle 23 Years Old Bourbon - U.S.A. - 47.80% 7 Even more age to handle, but it has wistful, nostalgic charm.
Van Winkle Family Reserve Kentucky Straight Bourbon, 18 Years Old Bourbon - U.S.A. - 52.60% 7 The wisdom of the ages is locked in there somewhere, but it is hard to penetrate the wood.
Van Winkle Family Reserve, 13 Years Old Bourbon - U.S.A. - 47.80% 8 Certainly showing its age, but full of character.
Van Winkle Special Reserve, 12 Years Old Bourbon - U.S.A. - 45.20% 7 Well balanced. Easy to drink. Not especially complex.

Assuming the codes are formatted mostly the same. That's what I was suggesting, not use a different analyzer. (If they're not the same then it becomes more difficult) The other problems you're describing with the descriptions could also be solved with a proper analyzer. Add a "FRACTION" type to the lexical grammar, and don't strip punctuation like the quote. Or synonym "1/2" to "half" I guess (I haven't done much work with synonyms). Lastly, and someone should correct me if I'm wrong, but you should always use the same analyzer to create and to query the index. Otherwise queries that should return hits wont. For instance the following. The canoist paddles Could be indexed as [boater] [strokes]... And the query contents:paddles would be parsed to [paddle] and likely would not get the hit you expect.

Linking the Millennium Development Goals and Human Trafficking: A Youthful PerspectiveMarch 20, 2014|by Tiffany Taylor, U.S. Youth Observer Despite more than a dozen international conventions banning slavery in the past 150 years, there are more slaves today than at any point in human history. Slaves are those forced to perform services for no pay beyond subsistence and for the profit of others who hold them through fraud and violence. While most are held in debt bondage in the poorest regions of South Asia, some are trafficked in the midst of thriving development.[1] – Time Magazine The first session of the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) began in 1947 and declared as its mission the responsibility to "to raise the status of women, irrespective of nationality, race, language or religion, to equality with men in all fields of human enterprise, and to eliminate all discrimination against women." While huge attempts have been made to realize this goal, decades later, human trafficking, "the illegal trade of human beings, through abduction, the use of threat of force, deception, fraud or 'sale' for the purposes of sexual exploitation or forced labor" is still alive and costing many people their lives and freedom, while enriching others with profit. I have learned throughout my second week participating in events surrounding CSW that in order to achieve the Millennium Development Goals, human trafficking must be stopped. The ending of human trafficking and achieving the Millennium Development Goals are intertwined Research shows that there is a strong linkage between human trafficking and the Millennium Development Goals. For example, those who experience poverty and a lack of education are much more vulnerable to human trafficking. Furthermore, the third Millennium Development Goal hopes to inspire all nations to achieve gender equity and the empowerment of women to the same level of men. However, human trafficking, which disproportionately occurs among women, leads to sexual, physical, and mental abuse, which is a clear "violation of women's human rights and negates gender equality."[2] After learning about the linkages between human trafficking and the Millennium Development Goals during the beginning half of the second week of the 58th Session of CSW, I made it a priority to learn about the ways in which youth can get involved in ending human trafficking, particularly among women who make up the majority of today's victims of slavery. Women are trafficked for different reasons, "such as commercial sex, agricultural work, or housekeeping, yet they all share the loss of one of our world's most cherished rights – freedom." Shockingly I learned that no one is immune to being captured and forced into human trafficking: "Trafficked persons can be rich or poor, men or women, adults or children, and foreign nationals or US citizens." [3] Even more infuriating is the fact that many of these trafficked women are sold off by their own parents and relatives, the same people they rely on for protection. Even though human trafficking is a large and perplexing problem, young people are tackling it. I learned about an awesome project being carried out throughout Cambodia in which youth are creating and performing songs and other forms of art in order to spread the message about the disastrous effects of human trafficking. There is even a webpage on the U.S. Department of State's website that showcases how to combat human trafficking in everyday life, listing 20 tips that anyone can do to combat human trafficking. Ultimately, I have learned that although many of the global issues discussed by thousands at the United Nations can seem daunting, we all can do small things every day to end giant problems. There is no excuse. We can start small or large, but the main point is to start from wherever you are in life to help better the world. |

This was the year of they.
2015 was the year copy editors and other observers of language saw broader acceptance of the pronoun's utility in referring to a single person — usually an unidentified person, but not necessarily.
In the past year, we also saw the word they more commonly used for a person who does not care for binary gender identity — some people don't see themselves as a he or a she.
Friday night in Washington, D.C., they was declared the American Dialect Society Word of the Year for 2015, voted on by linguists and lexicographers crowded into a room for the highlight of that organization's annual conference.
They certainly wasn't new in 2015. It has been used as a singular pronoun for hundreds of years.
We use it in speech casually without even thinking about it, but we continue to edit it out of printed text, sometimes performing copy-editing backflips to avoid it.
At the 2012 ACES conference in New Orleans, Sandra Schaefer, then a graduate student at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh, presented "Reviving Singular They, Contemporary Usage of Gender Neutral Pronouns."
By ACES 2015 in Pittsburgh, the singular they seemed to be the enduring topic in many sessions and evening bar discussions. Merrill Perlman, president of the ACES Education Fund, wrote about it in a column for Columbia Journalism Review just before the conference. After the Word of the Year vote, she said she was thrilled.
"It continues the validation that sometimes the fix is worse than the flaw," she wrote in a message. "Avoiding they can create stilted language. The ADS adds momentum to the movement."
In December, the Washington Post changed its style guide to allow they as an all-purpose pronoun as a last resort. Post copy editor Bill Walsh said he has been rooting for singular they while avoiding using it because of it was perceived as incorrect.
"I think it was the obvious choice," he said of the WOTY designation, "though my embrace of the idea couldn't have been much more cautious."
Walsh wrote for the Post that what finally pushed him over the edge was the increasing visibility of people for whom he or she did not fit.
"Simply allowing they for a gender-nonconforming person is a no-brainer," Walsh wrote. "And once we've done that, why not allow it for the most awkward of those he or she situations that have troubled us for so many years?"
ACES executive board member Brady Jones, who organized a panel on inclusive language at the Pittsburgh conference, said language evolves as part of social and cultural change.
"Words have a lot of power," he wrote. "The singular they makes our communications more accurate and, perhaps more importantly, more respectful toward people about whom we're talking or writing."
Jones is a visiting assistant professor at the University of Missouri School of Journalism.
They won in a single round in the final vote of the night, earning 187 votes out of 334 cast. It beat out nominees Thanks, Obama (a phrase used seriously or sarcastically for whenever anything goes wrong), ammosexual (a lover of firearms), on fleek (something like just right, often referring to eyebrows), and ghost (to end a relationship by vanishing from online connections).
They also was the runaway favorite in the Most Useful subcategory in the Word of the Year voting. The vote tallies for all categories can be found at the American Dialect Society website.

In order to provide a unique wedding venue décor that is personal to the bride and groom, it is important to consider every last detail including your wedding table numbers. In recent years we have seen couples becoming more imaginative with how they number their tables. Here we take a look at 10 of our favourite ideas to get your creative juices flowing.
Hand Painted Pebbles
A great budget option that can be used to give a natural feel to your table décor. All you need are some pebbles, which you can either leave as they are, or paint to match your colour scheme. Numbers can be added by way of rubber stamps, but be sure to do the stamping at least a few days before the big day to ensure that the ink has dried properly. You can complete the look by scattering more pebbles across the tables.
Wine Bottle Labels
If you are going to serve wine at your wedding reception you could have the bottles already on the table, complete with labels displaying the number of the table. These labels are easy enough to create using your home printer and some self-adhesive labels. If you really want to add some character to the bottles, you should consider incorporating some of Paper Themes' personalised wine bottle labels.
Balloon Numbers
Balloons remain a popular choice when it comes to weddings and you are likely planning to include some at your venue. So why not kill two birds with one stone and opt for balloons that are in the shape of numbers? All you have to worry about here is keeping the kids away from them long enough for everyone to be seated.
Numbered Balloon Strings
Staying with the balloon theme, you could go for regular shaped balloons, with tags displaying the table number attached to the string. Just make sure that you fill those balloons with helium so that the string is nice and tight and the table number can be easily seen.
On Chairs
Rather than displaying the number on the table, you could instead number the individual chairs around the table. This can be done by attaching a printed number to the back of each chair, which allows the table number to be seen by guests no matter which angle they are approaching from. There is of course always the chance that some of the numbers will be covered up by the male guests, as they take off their suit jacket and throw it over the back of their chair in preparation for the feast ahead.
Chalkboard Table Numbers
Choosing chalkboard table numbers gives you the freedom to decorate them as you like. You can either go for a simple table number as shown in the image opposite, or if you are a little artistic, add your own personalisation as you wish. The beauty of this option is that they can be used by the children later in the evening as a means of keeping them entertained and even reused at other events after the wedding is over.
As The Centrepiece
Rather than having a centrepiece and a separate table number, some couples are now incorporating the two table decorations into one single element. There are numerous ways of doing this, but a some of our favourites include having the number positioned on a piece of card inside a wire birdcage, or a pincushion design complete with number sticking out of a potted plant.
Door Numbers
At less than' £2 each, house door numbers are a novel option when it comes to wedding table numbers. The availability of brass and chrome finishes means that they will fit in well with most themes and colours schemes. All you have to do is decide what to attach them to, which could be something as simple as a split section of log or as ornate as a florists foam block complete with fresh flowers.
Pillar Candles
The lighting of candles plays a part in many wedding ceremonies, often used to symbolise the joining of two hearts and lives. If you have used candles of part of your ceremony then it can be nice to carry this theme through into the venue. Numbered pillar candles are available, which can both serve to act as a centrepiece and to guide guests to their seat. The candles also provide some mood lighting later in the day as the lights are dimmed and the evening guests begin to arrive.
Numbered Napkins
Our final suggestion is to have your table napkins numbered. This can provide a chic detail to your table decoration, without taking up any additional space. Once your guests have worked out where their table is located and are happily seated, the table numbers will then disappear as napkins are placed on laps and the feast begins.
If you have got any great table number ideas then we'd love to hear all about them.

| GlaxoSmithKline and Rosa Present Psoriasis Collaboration Results at International IRA ConferencePhysioPD™ modeling collaboration in psoriasis to be presented September 9-13, 2012.
The presentation will describe the development and use of a custom-designed Psoriasis PhysioMap® which provided information and methodology to enable key decisions in early development target prioritization. The map was built using literature data and then critically reviewed by R&D scientists and disease experts. The presentation will show how the map was used to evaluate the roles of drug targets in disease pathways, their potential interactions, and their relative contributions to efficacy potential. This process has informed the selection and prioritization of drug development targets, and it set the stage for development of a quantitative PhysioPD model that will further elucidate and prioritize target potential. "We are pleased to share the initial results from our ongoing collaboration with GSK", said Dr. Rebecca Baillie, Chief Scientist, PhysioPD at Rosa. "The results of this collaboration show the business value and scientific usefulness of developing a Psoriasis PhysioMap. The PhysioMap development process was critical for establishing a common understanding of the key data and material uncertainties relevant to psoriasis and providing a framework to facilitate cross-functional communication within GSK." About Rosa Rosa informs our customer's most critical decisions - from preclinical through clinical development - with the creation and use of mathematical models that simulate disease physiology, drug action, patient variability, and trial outcomes. To address the full spectrum of related issues, Rosa offers two customized approaches: classic pharmacokinetic/ Rosa and the Rosa logo are registered trademarks of Rosa & Co. LLC. End

Room and property overall were very clean. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. The pillows were flat and not very comfortable at all.

Attractive outside after remodel. Great TV, coffee pot, refrigerator, new countertop at sink. Shower and bed okay. Decor was okay. Lighting was all in the ceiling (not one lamp) and dreary. No makeup light. No hair dryer. Based on how my socks looked, the plastic laminate floor had not been mopped in a while.
