Purchasing my first aquarium (75 gallon)
Hey guys, I'm purchasing my first aquarium soon and I wanted some tips and advice on all there is about owning fishes in a 75 gallon aquarium. What accessories are mandatory and optional? I was thinking of going to Petco or a local fish store around my area. What kinds of fishes do you recommend and which can I mix together in a 75 gallon? Thanks in advance for all the help guys!

So, basically what you're asking is "please do me a quicky course in fishkeeping"
I'm afraid it's not that simple. There's an ebook here for beginners. There's stickies. Start by reading about the nitrogen cycle and how to do a fishless cycle.
- heater
- filter
- water testing kit
- ammonia
Pretty darn useful:
- net
- planting tweezers
- clean scrubbing sponge
- small stainless scissors
- piece of 1/2 hose or a gravel vac
- dedicated plastic bucket
As to heating, 300 watts. Filtration, depends on what you are going to get. Most likely you'll end up with a hang on back in which case you want filtration rated for 150 gallons.
Fish... would be nice if we knew your water hardness. Few pointes: most species are schooling, means they need to be groups of at least 6. A lot of stores have no clue about maximum sizes, wwww.seriouslyfish.com does. "I'll just return it when it gets too big" is something you hear a lot. In my opinion that's wrong, you keep promoting the import of overly large species that way.
Hope this helps, good luck!My 33 gallon/125 liter tank. My photography on flickr.
Welcome to the AC....
You're getting old when you get the same sensation from a rocking chair that you once got from a roller coaster.
there is two main types of tanks marine and freshwater each has their own needs the basics are mostly the same.
It would depend on what type of setup you want,if you want tropical mandatory equipment is one heater around 250 to three hundred watts, i would go for 2 75 gallon filters a good water testing kit preferably liquid, a bucket for water changes and a very good water conditioner like prime. gravel or sand for the bottom of the tank. If you want live plants, a planting tool, lights for plants and fertilizer and co2. I would say is that you decide what type of tank you want then when you get the tank setup and do a fishless cycle while you are researching your fish, i would suggest some easy fish like mollies,guppies neons at a later stage when the tank matures a bit, while you gain experiance, there are a good few species that do require alot of maintenace and care. if you are not sure about something always ask first all of us at one point all begginers. welcome to ac and congratulations of the 75 gallon its a good start and gives you more options at the end of the day for fish that you can keep.
A quarintine tank is benificial a lot of the more experienced fish keepers often have small tanks like a 5 or 10 gallon as a precaution when adding new fish to our tanks, the same type of equipment is needed, i would also add some meds like anti ick, have some salt on hand as well, and something else like methyline blue, to be on the safe side.

Apparently there is nothing that cannot happen today.
One thing I forgot an in tank thermometer
Kudos to you for researching before you buy fish.
As talldutchie stated, start here http://www.aquaticcommunity.com/aqua...ead.php?t=5640
In regards to what kind of fish I recommend, the possibilities are too many to name, a 75 gallon is a nice size to start with and without knowing your preferences, near impossible to recommend. You might want 1 oscar, or a couple jack dempsey, or several african cichlids, or a community of tetra. Knowing the GH, KH, and pH of your water will also help with suggestions, you should be able to find tests for those near the API freshwater master kit at your lfs.
With a few exceptions, I don't generally subscribe to the "beginner fish" theory, but I do strictly subscribe to the "research the hell out of all fish you might be interested before you buy them" theory. I suggest you go to your lfs and look at what is available in your area and what fish interest you, DO NOT buy any yet, but write down their names and research their environmental requirements, adult size, and their territorial and social needs. Environmental needs will give you a basic idea of how you will need to set up your tank. For instance do the fish need sand or gravel, plants or rocks and caves, and what temperature they need the water. Adult size, and territorial/social needs will give you an understanding of how many fish you can get. Once you get a list of fish that you like, post the list here, many people here will be happy to help you "fine tune" the final stock options.
For filtration on that size tank I suggest a couple canister filters rated for at least 75gallons each; Fluval, Eheim, and Rena are all good brands.
The possibilities for you new tank is dependent on how much research and learning you are willing to do. A basic understanding of this hobby is all you really need to enjoy this hobby and maintain a healthy tank with thriving fish, but a better understanding will open up more possibilities for you, it's up to you. Do some research and ask a lot of questions and I am looking forward to seeing your tank develop.

Everything happens for a reason. Sometimes that reason is you are stupid and make bad decisions.
I think my fish is adjusting well to the four gallon, He's laying on his side attempting to go to sleep on the bottom of the gravel.
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
Dear naps, sorry I hated you so much when I was a child... Love me
Thorough research is what makes the difference between a good start in the hobby and yet another "help my fish are dying" thread. Even then you'll make some mistakes but not as many and probably no fatal ones.
Welcome to the AC!
You have taken the correct first step by joining this forum. Then research, research, research. I just started my first tank, a 75 gal FW in December. Read the ebook here (lots of info) and check out the books at your local library. Mine had great books about the different fish species and gave me a starting point. Then I joined this forum. As it's your first aquarium (like me) ask questions before making decisions or purchases. A 75 gal is a great tank to start with, as it gives you lots of choices.
My aquarium journal is at http://www.aquaticcommunity.com/aqua...d.php?t=109063 if you want to see my setup.

A band of muscle fibers, the lower esophageal sphincter, closes off the esophagus from the stomach. If the sphincter does not close properly, food and liquid can move backward into the esophagus and cause heartburn and other symptoms known as gastroesophageal disease (GERD). To alleviate symptoms dietary changes and medications are prescribed. For a patient who has persistent symptoms despite medical treatment, an anti-reflux operation may be an option.

Dip your feet in the Mediterranean next to the ancient aqueduct before continuing north to Acre. This historic walled port-city has lots of interesting tunnels and towers to explore going back to Crusader times and beyond. Visit the Knights Halls, the Al-Jazaar Mosque, the bathhouse with its multi-media display and the new ethnic museum, built right into the rooms of the old wall, showcasing the everyday implements people used in the old days. Have lunch at a seaside Mediterranean restaurant. Drive to Rosh Hanikra, where the rocky cliffs descend steeply into the sea, allowing the waves to carve grottos of a thousand shapes. Take the cable car down to the grottos for fun exploring through the rocky passageways.
Drive along the scenic Upper Galilee road 899, through the forested mountains, stopping for an incredible view of the towering Crusader fortress of Montfortoverview in Nahal Kziv and continue to the Sea of Galilee area for dinner in Tiberiason the waterfront or in a country-style restaurant nearby.

Hot Damn!
Got my kernels kickin'
Got my Zooms zoomin'
Got my masqs rading'
Got my hops in hand
Sittin' by the pool,
Posting on Guacamole
With a laptop lapping.
Of course, the mosquitoes are out and it's past midnight. This was just a range test. Zoom wireless cards rock.
Time to sync up on the CVS tree and start cranking out my next module releases. I've been neglecting them lately, mostly due to external distractions but partly due to getting the laptop kicking. I'm ready to start cranking, now, though.
I suppose I can be one of those people in the coffee houses now, face aglow from the laptop betwixt sips of joe. We'll see. Mostly I'm just glad for any change of scenery from my cluttered bedroom, where I tend to hack from a frankenstein desktop constructed from the hastily disassembled components of my mp3 box. The micro ATX form factor looks like a postage stamp in the case. Anyway, it's nice to be able to wander about with the laptop.
Off to the Redneck Riviera next week for vacation. Laguna Beach, Florida, which is between Destin and Panama City Beach. Beautiful beaches, awesome seafood (oysters...mmmm...).
Can't decide whether to take projects along with me. I should probably go analog for a while.
The car (87 Volvo 240 GL, what a trooper) is in the shop for a tune-up, so I'll be biking around town tomorrow. Unfortunately I don't think my satchel is big enough for the laptop in addition to a change of clothes, shower paraphernalia, etc. To stink or to hack, that is the question. I suppose I will have mercy on my coworkers.

Good news for the often lacklustre show circuit in Texas. In a major (and somewhat delayed) turnaround in this situation, the promoters of the Sci-Fi Expo and Toy Show have announced an unprecedented guest:
Now this show is known for big annoucments that do not pan out, they have in recent years managed to deliver on most annouced guests. And Carrie Fisher should be the biggest audience draw ever! Previously, Sci-Fi Expos featuring Anthony Daniels or Ray Park have brought record crowds. But if they pull this one off, it will be the biggest ever!
Also in the Star Wars realm, George Lucas' new favorite Jedi, Aayla Secura - Amy Allen will be there as a guest.
Other guests represent the "Retro" theme of this show, retro TV and movies.
Veronica Cartwright - J Lambert (Alien)
Gerard Christopher - Superboy (Superboy)
Kathy Garver - Cissy (Family Affair)
Richard Herd - Admiral Paris (Star Trek)
Ken Osmond - Eddie Haskell (Leave it to Beaver)
Jon Provost - Timmy (Lassie)
Hope to see you all there!

Heirloom Varieties: The Apples of Our Ancestors
Crisp autumnal air. The sweet smell of leaves. Dashes of yellows and oranges and reds and browns. A quintessential New England fall. And nothing says fall to me like apples and apple picking.
As a child, roaming the orchards, climbing up the ladder to pick the fruit, and biting into a juicy red McIntosh was what thrilled me. Now that I'm a bit older, I still love to pick apples but, as a produce buyer here at Formaggio Kitchen Cambridge, what really gets my motor going is the sheer variety of apples available today.
There are, of course, the old standbys like Granny Smith and Galas. The New England staples like Cortlands and Macouns. And, with the help of seed savers and the grace of a handful of dedicated growers, like Zeke Goodband of Scott Farm in Dummerston, Vermont, there are heirloom apples. The names themselves are reason to cheer: Ananas Reinette, Hudson's Golden Gem, Duchess of Oldenburg. Continue Reading »

GENERIC NAME(S): PROPRANOLOL HCL/HYDROCHLOROTHIAZIDEFind Lowest Prices
Do not stop using this drug without first consulting your doctor. Your condition may become worse when the drug is suddenly stopped, especially if you have chest pain (angina) or heart disease (e.g., coronary artery disease, ischemic heart disease, high blood pressure). If your doctor decides you should no longer use this drug, you must gradually decrease your dose according to your doctor's instructions.
When gradually stopping this medication, it is recommended that you temporarily limit physical activity to decrease strain on the heart. Seek immediate medical attention if you develop: worsening chest pain, tightness/pressure in the chest, chest pain spreading to the jaw/neck/arm, unusual sweating, trouble breathing, or fast/irregular heartbeat.Who should not take Inderide-40/25?
This product is used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). Lowering high blood pressure helps prevent strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems.
This product contains 2 medications. Propranolol is a beta blocker that works by blocking certain natural chemicals in your body (such as epinephrine) that affect the heart and blood vessels. This effect reduces heart rate, blood pressure, and strain on the heart. Hydrochlorothiazide is called a "water pill" (diuretic) and causes your body to get rid of extra salt and water. This effect may increase the amount of urine you make when you first start the medication. It also helps to relax the blood vessels so that blood can flow through the body more easily.
These medications are used together when 1 drug is not controlling your blood pressure. Your doctor should direct you to start taking the individual medications first, and then switch you over to this combination product if this is the best dose combination for you.
See also Warning section.
Take this medication by mouth, usually twice daily or as directed by your doctor. You may take this medication with or without food, but it is important to choose one way and take this medication the same way with every dose.
The dosage is based on your medical condition and response to treatment.
If you take this drug too close to bedtime, you may need to wake up to urinate. Therefore, it is best to take this medication at least 4 hours before your bedtime. Consult your doctor or pharmacist if you have questions about your dosing schedule.
If you also take certain drugs to lower your cholesterol (bile acid-binding resins such as cholestyramine or colestipol), take this product at least 4 hours before or at least 4 to 6 hours after these medications.
Use this medication regularly to get the most benefit from it. To help you remember, take it at the same times each day. It is important to continue taking this medication even if you feel well. Most people with high blood pressure do not feel sick. It may take up to several weeks before you get the full benefit of this drug.
Tell your doctor if your condition worsens (e.g., your routine blood pressure readings increase).
See also Warning and Precautions sections.
Dizziness, lightheadedness, blurred vision, or tiredness may occur as your body adjusts to the medication. Nausea/vomiting, stomach pain, and unusual dreams may also occur. If any of these effects persist or worsen, tell your doctor or pharmacist promptly.
Propranolol may reduce blood flow to your hands and feet, causing them to feel cold. Smoking may worsen this effect. Dress warmly and avoid tobacco use.
Remember that your doctor has prescribed this medication because he or she has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Many people using this medication do not have serious side effects.
The hydrochlorothiazide in this product may cause a loss of too much body water (dehydration) and salt/minerals. Tell your doctor right away if you have any of these unlikely but serious symptoms of dehydration or mineral loss: very dry mouth, extreme thirst, muscle cramps, weakness, fast/irregular heartbeat, nausea/vomiting, severe dizziness, confusion, fainting, seizures.
Tell your doctor right away if any of these unlikely but serious side effects occur: shortness of breath, blue fingers/toes, swelling ankles/feet, mental/mood changes (e.g., depression), numbness/tingling of arms/legs, very slow heartbeat, decreased sexual ability, unexplained/sudden weight gain, increased thirst/urination, decrease in vision, eye pain.
Tell your doctor right away if any of these rare but very serious side effects occur: easy bruising/bleeding, signs of infection (e.g., fever, persistent sore throat), aching/swollen joints, yellowing eyes/skin, persistent nausea/vomiting, severe stomach/abdominal pain, dark urine, signs of kidney problems (such as change in the amount of urine).
A very serious allergic reaction to this drug is rare. However, seek immediate medical attention if you notice any symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, including: rash, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), severe dizziness, trouble breathing.
This is not a complete list of possible side effects. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.

In Canada - Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to Health Canada at 1-866-234-2345.
Before taking this medication, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are allergic to propranolol or hydrochlorothiazide; or to other thiazides (e.g., chlorothiazide); or if you have had a serious reaction to other beta blockers (e.g., metoprolol, atenolol); or if you have any other allergies. This product may contain inactive ingredients, which can cause allergic reactions or other problems. Talk to your pharmacist for more details.
Before using this medication, tell your doctor or pharmacist your medical history, especially of: breathing problems (e.g., asthma, bronchitis, emphysema), diabetes, heart failure, certain types of heart rhythm problems (sinus bradycardia, Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, second- or third-degree atrioventricular block), overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism), kidney disease, liver disease, blood circulation problems (e.g., Raynaud's disease), a certain type of tumor (pheochromocytoma), mental/mood disorders (e.g., depression), certain muscle/nerve disease (myasthenia gravis), gout, loss of too much body water (dehydration), lupus, certain recent nerve surgery (sympathectomy), severe allergic reactions, untreated mineral imbalance (e.g., low potassium/magnesium, high calcium).
Before having surgery, tell your doctor or dentist that you are taking this medication.
This drug may make you dizzy or cause blurred vision. Do not drive, use machinery, or do any activity that requires alertness or clear vision until you are sure you can perform such activities safely. Limit alcoholic beverages.
To reduce the risk of dizziness and lightheadedness, get up slowly when rising from a sitting or lying position. Significant loss of body water from too much sweating, vomiting, or diarrhea can also lower your blood pressure and worsen dizziness. Drink plenty of fluids to prevent these effects and dehydration. If you are on restricted fluid intake, consult your doctor for further instructions. Contact your doctor if you are unable to drink fluids or if you have persistent diarrhea/vomiting.
This drug may reduce the potassium levels in your blood. Ask your doctor about increasing the amount of potassium in your diet (e.g., bananas, orange juice) or about using a salt substitute containing potassium. A potassium supplement may be prescribed by your doctor.
If you have diabetes, this product may prevent the fast/pounding heartbeat you would usually feel when your blood sugar level falls too low (hypoglycemia). Other symptoms of a low blood sugar level, such as dizziness and sweating, are unaffected by this drug. This product also may make it harder to control your blood sugar levels. Check your blood sugar levels regularly as directed by your doctor. Tell your doctor right away if you have symptoms of high blood sugar such as increased thirst, hunger, and urination. Your anti-diabetic medication or diet may need to be adjusted.
This medication may make you more sensitive to the sun. Avoid prolonged sun exposure, tanning booths, and sunlamps. Use a sunscreen and wear protective clothing when outdoors.
Older adults may be more sensitive to the effects of this product, especially dizziness.
During pregnancy, this product should be used only when clearly needed. Infants exposed to the medications in this product during pregnancy may have low birth weight, low blood sugar, slow breathing/heartbeat, liver problems, or bleeding problems. Discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor.
The medications in this product pass into breast milk. Consult your doctor before breast-feeding.
See also How to Use section.
Drug interactions may change how your medications work or increase your risk for serious side effects. This document does not contain all possible drug interactions. Keep a list of all the products you use (including prescription/nonprescription drugs and herbal products) and share it with your doctor and pharmacist. Do not start, stop, or change the dosage of any medicines without your doctor's approval.

Holy War: How an unholy alliance of Catholics, Mormons, and evangelicals seeks to control our lives. By Jeff Inglis.
The future of the unholy alliance. By Jeff Inglis.
The keys to Heaven can make for good fundraising. By Jeff Inglis.
Religious organizations, at present, get automatic certification from the IRS as nonprofit groups. There are some rules limiting how much political activity nonprofits can have, but churches — most notably the Catholic Church — don't pay those rules much mind, preferring instead to wield significant political muscle both in person and with money.
Particularly in response to the religious war waged on same-sex marriage, there have been a number of public campaigns to revoke nonprofit status for churches that break the rules.
Some — including the Phoenix, in a 2009 editorial — have argued that religious groups should have to apply for tax-exempt status (rather than automatically receiving it), and that their lobbying efforts and related spending should be made public.
But perhaps the best measure is with a relatively simple, possibly administrative change. At present, IRS rules limit only religious groups' efforts in support or opposition to "any candidate for elective public office." But same-sex marriage is not a candidate; it is a referendum question. If the IRS prohibition were expanded to ban church efforts regarding, say "any question put to the voting public on a ballot," the stakes would be raised, and the enforcement much clearer.

It seems a theme this year so far is that we all need to get back to the basics a bit…
Ok I'll speak for myself and my Troop, but the basics are what got us here, and the basics will move us forward.
Another aspect of the basics that we discussed last night was accountability.
Now before anyone gets their campaign hat in a knot because this is only Scouting, it serves us well to remind one another that we are here for fulfill or achieve the goals of Scouting…
Say it with me… Character Development, Citizenship training, and Physical fitness!
Ok now… if you think I am going to beat on that horse again, well.. wrong. I am coming at this from a different angle.
Last night during my Scoutmaster minute with the Troop I talked about Inspecting what we expect. If you have never heard that term before it is simply to say that if we expect a task to be completed, we need to inspect the process, the plan, and follow up. If we expect the Scouts to be in Uniform, then we should inspect our selves and make sure we are setting a good example. If I expect the Troop Committee to have a seat belt plan each month, I need to attend the committee meeting and inspect that it has been done, along with a Trip permit etc.
It is a simple leadership tool that ensures success. You see if you fail to inspect, you will fail to see the shortfalls in the execution of the plan. And therefore.. you will fail in the end.
Or at least fail to get the results you were shooting for.
Why have goals if you do not want to attain them?
Well if you want to attain the goals… inspect the process of getting there. All leaders should do this.
We also have expectations of one another. I expect a lot out of the Troop Committee, the Chartered Organization expects a lot out of me. And so do the Parents of our Troop. They expect me to run a Troop program full of adventure, skills and development. They want to see their son come out of Scouting better than when he entered the program. With Character, and good sense of Citizenship, and maybe more physically fit than when he started. An appreciation for the out doors and having had learned lesson that will last him a life time. Oh and they want him to have fun!
They expect that from me and inspect the progress frequently. They are given immediate feedback from their son every Monday night and upon return from a camping adventure. Oh and I hear it when Tommy Tenderfoot had a bad time.
The point here is that inspecting progress is in the course of any leaders regular task list.
The leader needs to understand expectations and how to attain them. Given a clear set of guidance; Purpose, Direction, and Motivation, the leader can execute the plan and produce the results desired. And yes 12 year olds can do this too!
I expect a lot out of our Junior leaders, I expect them to learn, from each other and from their mistakes. I expect them to learn from me and the assistant Scoutmasters. I expect them to do their very best. I expect them to earn and achieve. I expect them to shy away from the "Gimme". Because in life… nothing is free. I expect them to take care of their Patrols and keep their patrols need above their own. I expect them to develop skills and teach those skills.
I expect them to wear the uniform properly and completely. I expect them to live the Scout Oath and law, not only on Mondays and camp outs… but every day. I expect them to do well in School, play sports, love their parents, and at least get along with their sisters.
I expect a lot out of our future… and I inspect all of the above.
Inspect what you expect and see the results.
Have a Great Scouting Day!

About Jeff Masters
Cat 6 lead authors: WU cofounder Dr. Jeff Masters (right), who flew w/NOAA Hurricane Hunters 1986-1990, & WU meteorologist Bob Henson, @bhensonweather
By: Dr. Jeff Masters , 9:05 PM GMT on September 08, 2011
An Air Force Reserve hurricane hunter aircraft is in Tropical Storm Nate, and has found winds much stronger than the storm's satellite appearance would suggest. At 2:17 pm EDT, the aircraft measured winds at their flight level of 1500 feet of 93 mph, which would ordinarily support upgrading Nate to a Category 1 hurricane. Surface winds measured by the SFMR instrument were about 70 mph, suggesting that Nate is indeed very close to hurricane strength. However, latest visible satellite loops show that if Nate is a hurricane, it's only half of a hurricane. Nate's low-level center is exposed to view, due to northeasterly upper-level winds that are creating a moderate 10 knots of wind shear. This shear is keeping all of Nate's heavy thunderstorms pushed to the south side of the center, and the northern half of the storm almost cloud-free. Sustained winds at Buoy 42055, about 140 miles to the northwest of the center of Nate, were just 28 mph at 3:50 pm EDT this afternoon. Water vapor satellite loops show that there is a large area of very dry air from Texas to the north of Nate, and this dry air is keeping the northern half of the storm dry.
Nate will meander in the Bay of Campeche for several days, and the computer models are sharply divided on what happens early next week to the storm. A ridge of high pressure is expected to build in to the north of the storm, potentially forcing it westwards to a landfall in Mexico. However, our two best-performing models last year, the GFS and ECMWF, predict that a weak trough of low pressure expected to move across the U.S. early next week will be strong enough to turn Nate northwards towards an eventual landfall along the northern Gulf Coast. We will have to wait until the NOAA jet makes its first mission to sample the steering currents in the Gulf of Mexico to get a better idea on how probable this northern path might be; their first flight will be tonight, and the data will make it into the 8 pm models runs that will be available first thing Friday morning. As far as intensity goes, the very dry air to Nate's north should begin being less of a problem for it by Friday, when the upper level winds shift more to blow from the southeast, and the shear drops to the low range, 5 - 10 knots. Since the storm is moving very slowly, it will upwell cooler waters from the depths that will slow intensification, though.
Figure 1. Afternoon satellite image of Nate.
Tropical Storm Maria
Tropical Storm Maria barely survived as a tropical storm today, but is now making a bit of a comeback. Satellite loops show that Maria has been badly ripped up by the 10 - 20 knots of wind shear affecting it. The low-level center has been exposed to view most of the day, and surface arc-shaped clouds have been racing away from the storm to the west this afternoon, indicating that dry air has been getting into Maria's thunderstorms and disrupting the storm. However, the areal coverage and intensity of Maria's thunderstorms have increased a little in the past two hours. Maria is passing close to buoy 41040, which measured sustained winds of 36 mph, gusting to 45 mph, at 2:50 pm EDT.
Wind shear is predicted to fall to the low range on Friday as Maria approaches the Lesser Antilles. In addition, as I noted in this morning's post, Maria will be encountering an atmospheric disturbance known as a Convectively-Coupled Kelvin Wave (CCKW) that is currently passing through the Lesser Antilles Islands. There is a great deal of upward-moving air in the vicinity of a CCKW, and will help strengthen the updrafts in Maria's thunderstorms, potentially intensifying the storm. None of our models are detailed enough to "see" CCKWs", so we may see more intensification of the storm than the models are calling for. I believe Maria will continue to organize and arrive in the Lesser Antilles Islands as a tropical storm with 50 - 60 mph winds. The latest run of the GFDL model predicts that Maria will be a Category 1 hurricane on Saturday afternoon when it moves through the Virgin Islands, and a Category 2 hurricane Sunday night when it moves through the Turks and Caicos Islands. This is on the high end of what is possible, and I think it more likely that Maria will be a tropical storm with 50 - 60 mph winds in the northern Lesser Antilles, 60 - 70 mph winds in the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico, and a Category 1 hurricane in the Turks and Caicos Islands--assuming passage over Puerto Rico and the eastern tip of the Dominican Republic does not significantly disrupt the storm. A lower intensity, as forecast by NHC, is certainly quite possible, as Maria may continue to struggle with the dry air and wind shear besetting it.
The latest computer model runs have been trending more southwards, and the Northern Lesser Antilles, Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, the Turks and Caicos Islands, and the Bahama Islands are all at high risk of a direct hit by Maria. The models are split on how strong the steering influence a trough of low pressure along the U.S. East Coast will have once Maria approaches the U.S. East Coast. Most of the models foresee that Maria will turn north before arriving at Florida, and potentially threaten North Carolina, Bermuda, or Canada. The latest run of the GFDL model, though, brings Maria through the Bahamas to a point just 100 miles southeast of Miami as a hurricane on Tuesday afternoon. While this forecast is an outlier, and it is more likely that Maria will turn north before reaching Florida, it will be another two days before we will have a fair degree of confidence on when Maria will curve to the north.
Lee's rains trigger historic flooding in New York and Pennsylvania
An extreme rainfall event unprecedented in recorded history has hit the Binghamton, New York area, where 7.49" of rain fell yesterday. This is the second year in a row Binghamton has recorded a greater than 1-in-100 year rain event; their previous all-time record was set last September, when 4.68" fell on Sep 30 - Oct. 1, 2010. Binghamton has also already broken its record for rainiest year in its history. Records go back to 1890 in the city. The rain has ended in Binghamton, with this morning's rain bringing the city's total rainfall for the 40-hour event to 9.02". The Susquehanna River at Binghamton has risen to 25.69', its highest level since records began in 1847, and is now spilling over the flood walls protecting the city, according to media reports. In Hershey, Pennsylvania, Swatara Creek is 19' over flood stage, and more than 9' above its record flood crest. Widespread flash flooding is occurring across the entire area, and over 120,000 people have been evacuated from their homes.

Figure 4. In Hershey, Pennsylvania, Swatara Creek is 19' over flood stage, and more than 9' above its previous record flood crest. The river is forecast to crest at 27.2' (green lines are the predictions.) Records at this gage go back to 1930. Image credit: NOAA/AHPS.
The extreme rains are due the the remains of Tropical Storm Lee interacting with a stationary front draped along the Eastern U.S. Adding to the potent moisture mix last night was a stream of tropical moisture associated with Hurricane Katia that collided with the stationary front. You don't often see a major city break its all-time 24-hour precipitation record by a 60% margin, according to wunderground's weather historian, Christopher C. Burt, and he can't recall ever seeing it happen before. It's worth noting that the Susquehanna River Binghamton stream gage, which has been in operation since 1847, is due to be shut off in 3 weeks due to budget cuts. Here's the note at the USGS web site:
NOTICE (03/23/2011)--Data collection at this streamgage may be discontinued after October 1, 2011 due to funding reductions from partner agencies. Although historic data will remain accessible, no new data will be collected unless one or more new funding partners are found. Users who are willing to contribute funding to continue operation of this streamgage should contact Rob Breault or Ward Freeman of the USGS New York Water Science Center at 518-285-5658 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
I'll have an update in the morning.

Okay, so I downloaded this from cydia without any problems. I respring. NOW EVERY SINGLE OF THE APPS I DOWNLOADED DISAPPEARED, except for two which is weird. Even weirder is that they are still on my phone, as I go to the AppStore it says "open" instead of install -.- Anyone had this problem and/ or have any idea how to fix this???
Im not sure, the only thing I know is that with 5.1.1 I used to reach 358mb of free ram, now I hardly hit the 330 mark.
I barely use SBSettings anymore, this is just another tweak to add a nail in it's coffin. Biggest thing stopping me from getting rid of SBSettings though is it's ability to enable and disable mobile substrate plugins - that can be a g0d send for trouble shooting a buggy tweak. Anyone know of another app that can allow you to do that?
It's hard for me to trust any of these apps when the results vary by this much.
Am I the only one getting a high battery drainage? I just wanted to check how much of the battery it will consume so I turned off 3G and went to Edge at 3am with 69% of battery and when I woke up at 10am and it had 59%. It might not be much but since it was on Edge, it should have been at 63% at least.
With Edge I can hit a 4 day with a single charge. 10% in 7 hours seems quite a lot on Edge.
It's the exact same as the iCleaner in Cydia (Big Boss Repo) without the advance features of iCleaner Pro.

A nose fracture is a break in the bone or cartilage over the bridge, or in the sidewall or septum (structure that divides the nostrils) of the nose.
Fracture of the nose; Broken nose; Nasal fracture
A fractured nose is the most common fracture of the face. It usually occurs after an injury and often occurs with other fractures of the face.
Sometimes a blunt injury can cause the wall dividing the nostrils (septum) to separate.
Nose injuries and neck injuries are often seen together because a blow that is forceful enough to injure the nose may be hard enough to injure the neck.
Serious nose injuries cause problems that need a health care provider's attention right away. For example, damage to the cartilage can cause a collection of blood to form inside the nose. If this blood is not drained right away, it can cause an abscess or a permanent deformity that blocks the nose. It may lead to tissue death and cause the nose to collapse.
For minor nose injuries, the health care provider may want to see the patient within the first week after the injury to see if the nose has moved out of its normal shape.
Occasionally, surgery may be needed to correct a nose or septum that has been bent out of shape by an injury.
The bruised appearance usually disappears after 2 weeks.
Get medical help right away if:
Wear protective headgear while playing contact sports, riding bicycles, skateboards, roller skates, or rollerblades.
Use seat belts and appropriate car seats when driving.

K-1 Dynamite's Sad Ratings and FEG's 2011 Future
- Written by Dave Walsh
I've returned from my mini-pilgrimage (read: girlfriend and myself) to the Pacific Northwest to rock out and have been catching up on the overload of fight news from the past few days, and let me tell you, a lot happened. Thankfully, you've been reading LiverKick.com and your needs are fulfilled for SRC and FEG stuff. So, much to my dismay, before I've even had a chance to watch Dynamite!! from the comfort of my DVR, the word seems to be that while the show was incredible as always, the Japanese press were not so happy with it. As always, the Japanese care about things that not many else do when it comes to their national programming.
Japanese headlines coming out of Dynamite!!? They are scary. Essentially, the headlines all revolve around Satoshi Ishii and his poor performance. Ishii was booed at Dynamite!! The hype around Dynamite!!? Gone. SportsNavi, a popular news outlet run by Yahoo! has headlines about UFC 125, with the feature story about Clay Guida choking out Takanori Gomi and how Nagashima's KO of Aoki made him MVP. NikkanSports is similar. All of the more fight-oriented websites were obeying the unwritten rules of don't trash in public, the mainstream media? No such luck. Headlines about the boos that Ishii received were deafening. Ishii the ace of Japan is all-but-dead. The goofy interviews, the terrible performance, the inability to make press conferences and so forth have done him no favors. He needed a dominant win and a solid post-fight interview, ala Sakuraba and Minowaman. Of course, he did not deliver.
The Japanese ratings were out a few days ago, and TBS pulled in an average of 8.8% (9.8 and 7.8 for each hour). Last year had a peak of 16.7% and an average of 13%, over 3 points higher overall. The help of Ishii and Inoki were simply not enough for the fledgling Dynamite!!. It is just proof that Japan needs new star power. Zach Arnold takes his usual, exhaustive look at the implications of it all. If you care about Japanese MMA and kickboxing, I feel like Zach is a must-read when he writes about it. The point Zach makes is a strong argument as to why Ishii is a giant failure, basically, and he breaks down FEG's situation.
FEG announced that by the end of January they would announce their future plans for the year, which includes restructuring the company from the inside out (much-needed) and to incorporate funding from Chinese and American investors. For those expecting gloom and doom, expect this funding to last for a while. From all that I've heard and discussed with insiders, FEG will be healthy for at least 2011. Their television deals are possibly in limbo again, though. With the poor ratings on TBS, TBS might cut loose the FEG shows they carry (K-1 MAX, DREAM and Dynamite!!). Understand that these shows are the brainchild of TBS to assault other strong network programming, and don't think they like losing. It has nothing to do with fighting, MMA, kickboxing, etc., everything to do with star power and roping in fans. Sapp's fight being barred from TV didn't help matters, as he is a yearly staple and ratings draw, nor did the younger Ologun brother only fighting. Ishii's aura is gone and no Masato means TBS cannot be happy right now. For those concerned, K-1's heavyweight shows are affiliated with Fuji TV, who is happy with K-1's programming.
What this means for DREAM, though, is unsure. Fuji TV has a strong relationship with Kazuyoshi Ishii (K-1 founder and tax evader), so don't be shocked if FEG's relationship with Fuji TV increases over the next year. I also expect a really strong push internationally, as K-1 has always built strong foreign stars and Alistair Overeem is a huge, hot prospect right now and could help propel DREAM and K-1 into the stratosphere in the USA over the next year.

Thailand vs challenger 26/07/11
- Written by Dave Walsh
Thailand vs Challenger took place at the prestigious River City Shopping Complex in Bangkok on Saturday night. It was one of the most upmarket events in the history of Muay Thai and the no expense spared production was witnessed by a well heeled crowd which included a number of celebrities.
Thailand vs Challenger was set up to take Muay Thai into the mainstream and this event, which will be broadcast to a televised viewership of 600 million people worldwide, was a big step in the right direction.
The first fight of the night saw Armin Muay Thai Plaza take on Hong Guan. After some controversy early in the fight over whether the use of elbows was allowed (Wang Guan walked out the ring because he didn't like being elbowed in the face) the Thai fighter proved just a little bit too sharp for his Chinese opponent outclassing him from start to finish to cruise to a comfortable decision win.
Saiyok Windy Sport then took on Contender Asia veteran Bruce Macfie in one of the most ancitipated contests of the evening. The Thai fighter was substantially smaller than the Australian, who beat John Wayne Parr last year, but Saiyok made light of the size difference using his superior speed to pepper Macfie with some lightning fast combinations
To his credit the Macfie kept coming forward but he would have been relieved to hear the final bell after taking sustained punishment throughout the five rounds. Saiyok demonstrated why he is widely regarded as one of the top fighters in Thailand with an imperious and impressive performance which saw him repeatedly land with sharp elbows and vicious body kicks.
Kaoklai Kaennorsing and Cyrus Washington provided some of the most entertaining exchanges of the evening in an exciting opening round which saw both men showing off some unorthodox and innovative techniques. In the second round Kaoklai looked the stronger man but his American opponent came on strong in round three landing an eye catching spinning back kick which seemed to catch Kaoklai flush.
It appeared the tide might be turning but the Thai fighter responded in style with a vicious elbow which opened up an enormous cut above Washington's left eye leaving the referee no option but to step in and stop the fight. It was an anticlimactic end to an engaging contest but with blood streaming down into his eye the American was simply unable to continue.
Antuan Siangboxing took on Saenchainoi Pumphuanmung in what was a close competitive fight between two evenly matched fighters who are familiar faces on the Bangkok stadium circuit. Most of the action took place within the clinch with both fighters looking to grab the judge's eye.
Antuan, who recently finished filming 'The Challenger' TV series, spent more of the fight on the front foot and the judges were sufficiently impressed by the Frenchman's work to award him a unainmous decision
The fight between Valdet Gashi and Sulakkao Sor Kravilas provided the only real controversy of the night. Gashi went on the offensive from the opening bell and his Thai opponent spent the entire five backed up against the ropes.
The German repeatedly landed with some solid body hooks while all Sulakkao could muster by way of offence was the occasional kick. The only criticism you could possibly level at Gashi was that he relied too heavily on his punching and utilized only two of the 'eight limbs' available to a Muay Thai fighter.
In the end it cost him dearly as the Thai judges awarded the decision to the Thai fighter much to the bemusement of the audience who clearly felt that Gashi's work rate and aggression should have been enough for him to claim the contest.
The judges had no say over the outcome of the final fight of the night which proved to be the most dramatic of them all. Two top Thais, Berneung Top King Boxing and Manasak Sitniwat, went head to head with a Thailand vs Challenger title on the line.
Manasak had a massive height advantage but the more muscular Berneung set out to use his superior strength to bully his taller opponent with some big punches. It was a strategy which paid dividends as Berneung was able to drop Manasak with a deadly combination in the opening round.
To his credit Manasak appeared to recover well and fired back with some solid straight knees towards the end of the round. Berneung was undeterred and in round two he finished the fight with a fearsome uppercut which momentarily stunned the crowd into silence and left Manasak unconscious on the canvass.
All in all it was a good night for the Thais but the Challengers can also take a lot of credit with Anton claiming the win and Valdet putting in a spirited performance. After the show the action headed to the Chao Phraya river where spectators and fans mingled at a no expense spared luxury after party on a boat.
Next stop for Thailand vs Challenger is the Queen's Cup next month. See schedule below:

Andrea has been devouring books since she learned to read at the age of three. An old portable typewriter got her started writing in her room at eight and she's been writing ever since. Her practical nature led her to pursue a master's degree and a career that would pay the bills, but the writing bug continued to bite. She started working ferociously in her spare time to become a published author and has become an active member of her local RWA chapter, Heart of Dixie. After eight years and eleven completed manuscripts, she finally made the leap and got "the call" from Harlequin Desire on May 31, 2011.
A dedicated West Coast girl transplanted into the Deep South, Andrea is working on her real-life "happily ever after" with her boyfriend of ten years and their collection of animals including two cats, two mutts and a Siberian husky that sheds like nobody's business. She loves to hear from readers, so if you enjoy her work, tell her on her Facebook Fan Page or Twitter andif you feel inclinedsend lint rollers!

The Albsteig (also called the Swabian Alb North Rim Trail/HW1) follows the Albtrauf, the north-westerly edge of the Swabian Alb, to the Danube valley, revealing spectacular views, ancient rock formations, castles and caves.
Situated to the south of Stuttgart, the Swabian Alb offers some of Germany's most striking scenery. On its north-western edge, the Swabian Alb rises steeply from the plain. This sharp incline with its remarkable wooded slopes and gorges is known as the Albtrauf. The Albsteig route starts in Donauwörth and heads along the Albtrauf past bizarre rock formations rising suddenly from the forest. Some of them are topped with palaces, castles and ruins that you can visit en route. This fascinating trail also passes wildlife enclosures, springs, streams, conservation areas and dripstone caves. A multitude of vantage points, including from towers and viewing platforms, provide magnificent panoramas far across the Swabian Alb. On its southern edge, the Alb plateau stretches as far as the Danube. The Albsteig takes you down into the valley of the Upper Danube, where it ends in the small town of Tuttlingen. Parts of the trail are on steep inclines and narrow paths. For seasoned walkers, the North Rim Trail offers lots of enjoyment and adventure.
Tip: Lichtenstein Castle
Perched at the top of a sheer rock face above the Echaz valley, romantic Lichtenstein Castle was built in 1842 for King Wilhelm of Württemberg and was inspired by a novel by Wilhelm Hauff. The armoury, taproom and chapel with its altar panels are well worth a visit.

I really enjoy using HiTask, as there is literally a thousand different apps that are web based to help you manage your day, your personal to-do lists, things at work, your family chores, etc. I like that it is targeted for people who are on the go who want things down now or also you can write things down for the future just like a little notebook.It is very simple to use, track goals and they are constantly simplifying the process. I have a lot of friends in India that use this tool as well. I am not sure where the company is based out of, but it means it is a great company that can strive in many different industries and markets and it looks like it is not going to stop growing!
Pros : You can see your different tasks, what you write on your calendar and easy change or edit what you have down there. You also can do an option like copy and paste to edit a certain task.Like a few apps, I have they have a feature when you can group different things together. Kind of like on the iPhone where you can put an app inside another app and then you can name it.I really like that you can basically edit anything and then share the certain document or file with your colleagues or co-workers.This week at work I am leading some tips and tricks and organizational time management seminar and I think I am going to bring up HiTask and how crucial it is to our groups' success :)We use a lot of Google products at work, and this can sync up with your calendar meaning Google calendar and also your email meaning Gmail.
Cons : I wouldn't really say this in cost, but it does get expensive. For five people to actually is it, it is around ten dollars a month, and they also have a free trial and an every 6-month payment plan.It is limited in functionality, I wish we can combine many different apps and mold it all together. I also use Wunderlist. When I time management I have a daily tracker, then what I want to do now then and page for each topic. HiTask can do something similar, so I guess making it a little more customer will help :)
Trello is by far one of the best tools out there for anyone looking to create a simple, easy to use, easy to customize project board. Built as a card sorting platform, the simple nature of Trello allows for you to create just about any board for a project that you would like. Whether you're looking to track the progress of a campaign through the different stages of completion (i.e. planned, in progress, ready for review, complete) or create a content ideas board where people can add and claim topics and ideas for their use, Trello gives you the flexibility to create what you want while providing tools to help you organize and manage everything.

For a newer contender in the project management industry, Apollo certainly has a leg up on the competition with its fresh take on some features (my favorites being the timer and the option to integrate calendars). If this is their software after only a few years, then I am definitely looking forward to what they come up with in the future!More about Apollo

One of my major concerns in using project management software is the inability for the software to meet even my projects' basic needs. Project Drive answers my concern by offering highly customizable templates, allowing me to tailor the templates for my specific needs – I can even create a project template to track my personal time with this software so that I can be more productive in life.More about Project Drive

Trello is an intuitive management tool that can be used for projects of all sorts. It really makes you wonder how no one came up with something this simple before.

Green as grass and with bales of turnovers and missed free throws to its credit, the Brookfield East boys basketball team turned to the two experienced hands it could trust Wednesday night in its season opener at Franklin.
And when junior guards Brian Smith and Ryan McBride scored back-to-back hoops in a matter of seven seconds very late in the fourth quarter, the Spartans had turned a 61-60 deficit into a 64-61 victory.
"They're the only two guys we have back with any varsity experience," said East coach Andy Farley. "Ryan had been in foul trouble most of the game (only 11 minutes played all told) so we ran that last play through Nick (Kanavas) and then Brian (Smith) finishes (to take the lead) and then Ryan (McBride) steals the in-bounds and hits another lay-up."
"I just couldn't be more pleased with the way we executed at the end of the game."
Meanwhile, Franklin coach Tim Hogan, who also has much rebuilding to do after an excellent 2010-11 campaign, couldn't help but be a little discouraged after the Sabers lost a four-point lead in the last 2:26.
"It's what we talked to the kids about," he said. "We had just way too many inconsistencies. We'd make one good play and then we'd make an errant pass. Our decision-making just needed to be a lot better and our team chemistry has to come together quickly if we're going to be successful."
The Sabers, who enjoyed a lead that got to as high as five points for much of the second half, looked to be in control with 3:12 remaining when sophomore post Chad Kanugh (10 points) hit a baseline jumper.
East then missed an easy shot but on the corresponding possession, which could have extended the Saber lead, Franklin was called for an offensive foul.
McBride then hit one of two free throws to cut the deficit to 59-55 with 2;26 remaining. The Spartans hurt themselves with great inconsistency at the foul line in the second half, hitting only 10 of 20 attempts in that time.
Then came the play of the game. A Franklin player was called for a foul on the next Spartan possession. His reaction also elicited a technical foul from the official.
East then hit two of the subsequent four free throws but more importantly, Smith (15 points), hit a driving lay-up on the next play to tie the score at 59-all with 1:16 left.
"That was a huge swing in the game," said Farley. "We faced some major adversity all game long, but there were a number of possessions where we were able to get some big stops."
Still, the Sabers were in good shape as senior post Danny Kingstad hit a lay-up off a nice feed from Brett Ksobiech to make it 61-59 with 1:03 remaining. He was fouled on the play but missed the free throw.
Smith hit one of two charity tosses on the next East trip down the floor to make it 61-60. The Spartans got the rebound on the second attempt miss but then turned it over.
Franklin could not succeed on the next possession and wound up turning the ball over itself.
East took time-out with 30 seconds left and ran the decisive play for Smith, who drove in from the right side for the go-ahead lay-up (62-61) with 14 seconds remaining.
And before the Sabers could even react, McBride stole the inbounds pass and cashed another lay-up with just seven seconds remaining.
Franklin tried to run a play for the tieing three-pointer but failed to get off a good attempt.
"We're always talking about the next play, of owning the moment," said Farley. "They pulled ahead for much of the second half, but we were always able to reel them back in."
Junior forward Mike Novak led the Spartans with 20 including three, three-pointers while Mike Eberle had nine. Ksobiech had 22 points for Franklin to lead all scorers on seven of 13 shooting while Nick Bobos had 12. Franklin hurt itself with 18 turnovers.
"After you get past some of our starting line-up, there just isn't a lot of experience out there for us," said Hogan. "We need that chemistry to develop. After that happens I think we'll start to catch up with the speed of the game.
"We'll get things figured. This hurts, but it is a learning experience. The bottom line for us is that we have to play better defense in clutch situations and take better care of the ball."

Chart at Course for Children is the real deal. Organized by a group of committed, low-key people, this annual dinner at Fleet Landing, which always ends at a reasonable hour, has raised more than a million dollars for the Dee Norton Lowcountry Children's Center since its inception ten years ago. With attendance capped at 150 guests, many of whom wear jeans, this casual gathering feels more like a friendly, intimate dinner party—there are no big bands, no flashy dance numbers, no visiting celebrities. As founding co-host Weesie Newton said at the end of Thursday night's affair, "It takes a village to make something magical like this happen, and we're lucky to have found our village long ago."
Indeed, there was something special in the air at this year's dinner. A cloud of 1,100 helium balloons—one representing every child assisted in 2009 by DNLCC—covered the ceiling, which really hammered home the volume of abused children in our community (especially considering the balloons only represent the children who reported the abuse and sought help at DNLCC). Hanging from each balloon was a tag inscribed with a first name and an age: Catherine, age 2; Terrell, age 11; etc. The idea of committee member Caroline Johnson, the balloons were tagged and then transported to the restaurant via a horse trailer by a team of volunteers. Their hard work translated into a powerful visual that came into play toward the end of the night.
A growing number of charity auctions have seized upon a way to harness live auction momentum and coax additional support from bidders. A representative of the charity stands mid-auction and shares a particularly poignant story followed by a bottom line tally of what it costs to provide service to one person, in this case a child. The auctioneer then queries the room with, "Who will help by sponsoring a child?" Bidders raise their paddles, and with a show of fingers, indicate the number of children to be sponsored. Typically the cost ranges from $100 - $200 at the various events; however, it costs DNLCC $1,300 to assist one child, so that's the amount auctioneer Doug Warner solicited from the crowd. Immediately, paddles rose around the room, and in less than ten minutes, almost $60,000 had been pledged.
In a moving symbolic gesture, DNLCC development director Beverly Hutchison pulled balloons from the ceiling and handed them to bidders who pledged to underwrite the network of services provided for each abused child. Between ticket sales, the auction, and the outright pledges, more than $178,000 was raised by the end of the night.
