The other day I shot out a tweet about the end of the Iraq Campaign. I said that I had some thoughts on it. I will share those, but first I thought it was worth mentioning that the war is not over. The war, is the Global War on Terrorism. The campaigns of this war are Afghanistan and Iraq. The Iraq campaign has ended.. not the war.
Having said that…
Here are some thoughts on the Iraq campaign as we knew it and as it has now changed. First of all let me speak to the man power issue AKA Soldiers.
While many soldiers will be returning to either their state side assignments or homes as the case is for our Reserve component soldiers, the United States military will not be leaving Iraq anytime soon. Following the end of combat action in World War II the United States committed to the stabilization of Europe. We are still there.
After the "cease fire" in Korea on 27 July 1953, the United States Army moved to the DMZ and there it has remained. Vietnam has been a different story, but history, even recent history including the 1991 Gulf War proved that we were in the "Stabilizing" business. The Army has maintained a presence in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait since 1991. The infrastructure, personnel, and ability to quickly mass forces in that region are in place and will not move any time soon.
So now that we know a bit about history and how we do our business, it is clear to see that although the campaign is over and the bulk of the combat forces will be redeploying to their next assignments, we are hardly out of Iraq.
The Iraqi government, military, and civil authorities are now in charge, but we will maintain our watchful eye on a region of the globe that is extremely volatile.
So here are my thoughts.
I served in Iraq at the beginning of the campaign. Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) 1 in 2003. Each new phase of OIF was marked with a number. I was part of OIF 1, OIF 1 was the Liberation of Iraq and later OIF 2 was the second deployment of combat units and Transition of Iraq, OIF 3 began the rebuilding and Governance of the country, then the surge (2007), all phases of OIF since have led to stability in Iraq.
What I saw in opening phase of OIF was a country that was in need of change. 30 + years living under the control of a dictator and his mob had taken its toll on the country. The people were beaten down and looking for nothing more than getting on with their lives in peace.
My Battalion was assigned a sector just outside Baghdad, a farming community that hated the Saddam regime. They wanted to farm and live.. and beyond that really had little to worry about. They loved us and appreciated the ousting of Saddam. The town connecting to Hilla is Haswa. It is the most dangerous place I have ever seen. Haswa, unlike Hilla, was not a friendly place. It was a haven for insurgents. We found countless cache's of weapons and munitions in Haswa along with "bad guys" that really did not appreciate our disruption of their gang activity.
They had very little loyalty to any one good or bad and no real cause other than to cause harm. They had a problem with us treating the population of Hilla medically and assisting with the opening of Schools and care facilities.
The city of Baghdad was pretty much the same, as could be said for many of the hot spots that you have heard about on the local news. Pretty much thugs trying to impose their will on the people seeking peace and those that were sent there to make sure it happened… Us.
By the time we redeployed on Easter of 2004, the area we operated in was starting to adjust to their new way of life.. Freedom.
Still the thugs tried to keep the people down and gangs grew out of the instability. Back here in the states, the news called them Sunnis and Shiites.. but religion (at least in Iraq) played very little if not any part in combat operations or why 'they' were fighting.
From the way I saw it the only thing that separated the Sunni from the Shi'ite was a highway. They had different color flags and the tops of their Mosques (used many for storage.. not prayer) were colored either Green or Blue.
The reason I think stabilization is so important is because of the tribal nature of the people of Iraq. I think that they now have had a taste of freedom and democracy.. in what ever form they are happy with, but just like in Germany, they will need to have a force their to ensure they stay on the right track.
The other consideration here is the we have a platform in Iraq to project force. Strategically, Iraq is right smack dab in the middle of the some of the hottest spots on the planet. Say what you will… this is the business we the people (via our representatives) have gotten us into. I am not going to debate that with anyone. I have been to war and do not wish that on anyone. It seems to be a necessary evil, proven to be that way since the beginning of time. As long as there are governments, terrorist, and those that oppress others.. well we will have to fight them.
So what do I think about the end of the Iraq campaign. I think it is a little late in coming, but at the end of the day, its all just dates on the calender. We will not leave Iraq for a long time. We will maintain a presence in the region for years to come. Combat forces will be moved to the Afghanistan campaign and we will continue to fight the Global War on Terrorism until our Government or the people have truly had enough. I do not see that happening for some time either.
Every day soldiers ruck up and deploy in support of the GWOT. I pray that they all return home in one piece physically, I am certain that they will never be the same.
Have a Great Scouting Day!

Serves 6
This tart of caramelized apples in pastry is the perfect balance of sweet and tart. It's amazing that it started out as a mistake, when hotelier Stéphanie Tatin accidentally put apples in a tart pan without lining it first with dough in 1889. To salvage the tart, she draped the pastry on top, baked it, and served it upside down, turning her mishap into a beloved classic.
For more Thanksgiving dessert recipes visit The Guide to Thanksgiving Dinner.
Put the flour, sugar, and salt in a food processor and pulse a few times to mix. Add the butter and pulse until coarsely mixed into the flour. Add the egg mixture in three additions, pulsing after each. Continue pulsing until you have a soft, shaggy dough that holds together when pinched.
Turn the dough out onto a work surface and gather it into a ball. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for about 1 hour.
Between two pieces of waxed paper or parchment, roll the dough into a circle that's about 1/8 inch thick and 11 inches wide. Prick the dough all over with a fork, then cover and refrigerate.
Peel, core, and quarter 4 of the apples.
Put the butter in a 10-inch heavy-duty ovenproof skillet over medium heat. When melted, use a pastry brush to coat the sides of the skillet with butter. Cover the butter with the sugar and cook just until the sugar is evenly moistened, about 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat.
Lay the apple wedges in the skillet with their rounded sides down or against the side of the skillet. Build concentric circles, packing the apples in a snug single layer—it's fine if there are gaps. Peel, core, and quarter as many of the remaining apples as you need to fill in any gaps. If necessary, cut the pieces smaller to make it easier to wedge them in. The gap-filling pieces of apple will form a haphazard second layer, but they'll shrink as they cook, and you'll be able to nudge the pieces into the newly widening gaps.
Put the pan over medium to medium-high heat and cook until beginning to bubble, about 2 minutes. Continue cooking until the apple juices are mostly boiled away and the caramel is a deep golden color, 15 to 20 minutes. Adjust the heat and reposition the skillet as needed for even cooking. The heat shouldn't be too low (the apples will get mushy) or too high (you'll burn the caramel). As the apples shrink, gently nudge the top layer of apples into the gaps.
While the apples cook, position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 375°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
When the apples are done, transfer the skillet to the baking sheet and let it sit for a few minutes before proceeding so the caramel can settle down. Meanwhile, let the dough sit at room temperature until pliable.
Place the dough on top of the fruit and tuck in the overhang. Bake until the pastry is golden, 25 to 30 minutes. Let the tart rest on the baking sheet until the bubbling caramel quiets down, 3 to 5 minutes. Gently run a table knife around the edges of the pan to loosen any apples stuck to the sides.
Cover the skillet with a large serving platter—preferably one with a rim—and cover your hands with oven mitts. Carefully invert the tart onto the platter and remove the skillet. If some apples have stuck to the pan, use the table knife to lift them off and gently press them back onto the tart.
Let the tart cool for at least 15 minutes before cutting it into wedges. Serve with crème fraîche on the side (if using). While the tart is best warm, it can also be served at room temperature.
The dough can be refrigerated overnight or frozen for up to 2 months.

You can read more about the methodology used in Rasmussen's daily presidential approval poll at http://www.rasmussenreports.com/publ..._polling_firms. On the website, Rasmussen notes that their poll uses automated polling machines to conduct polls. They state: "Rasmussen Reports uses an automated polling methodology while some firms use operator-assisted techniques. Generally, these different methodologies generate about the same level of approval for different political figures, but the automated technology generally registers a higher level of disapproval. Theres no way to be sure why this happens, but it may simply be that some people are reluctant to offer a negative opinion about another human being to a live operator." They then go on to state that the trends in opinion are virtually identical across all the major polls.
Fivethirtyeight.com, the site I referenced before, tracks what they believe is the degree of bias introduced by each of the different political polling firms. I believe that Rasmussen is either third or fourth lowest in their ratings (that is good), scoring worse than Pew and better than Gallup. By the way, I am not implying that those biases are partisan. I believe they are methodological and hinge on technicalities of the type noted on Rasmussen's site. Fivethirtyeight.com uses its modeling of pollster "bias" to adjust each set of polls in an effort to make them more comparable to each other. That method has proven to be extraordinarily accurate in predicting electoral outcomes, making it a fun site to follow during an election.
And this graphically shows that those who live off handouts, WIC, Section 8s and various other entitlement programs paid for by the working stiffs, now outnumber those poor working stiffs and can now outvote those that actually work and pay real estate and income taxes. Scary....
Received this by email and was asked to pass it along. It seems to belong here in this thread:
Professor Joseph Olson of Hemline University School of Law , St. Paul , Minnesota , points out some interesting facts concerning our recent Presidential election:
* Number of States won by: Democrats: 19 Republicans: 29
* Square miles of land won by: Democrats: 580,000 Republicans: 2,427,000
* Population of counties won by: Democrats: 127 million Republicans: 143 million
* Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by: Democrats: 13.2 Republicans: 2.1
Professor Olson adds: "In aggregate, the map of the territory Republicans won was mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens of the country. Democrat territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in government-owned tenements and living off various forms of government welfare..."
Olson believes the United States is now somewhere between the "complacency and apathy" phase of Professor Tyler's definition of democracy, with some forty percent of the nation's population already having reached the "governmental dependency" phase..
If Congress grants amnesty and citizenship to twenty million criminal invaders called illegals and they vote, then we can say goodbye to the USA in fewer than five years. If you are in favor of this, then by all means, delete this message.
If you are not, then pass this along to help everyone realize just how much is at stake, knowing that apathy is the greatest danger to our freedom.

You are absolutely correct in that this poll only measures strong positives and strong negatives. I interpret that to mean that about a third of voters strongly disapprove and roughly the same number strongly approve. The other third are disinterested and uninformed. The only real information to take away from this is the trend. We'll see if it continues.

New TigerCard online store offers more reliable service, options
Posted August 7, 2006; 09:19 a.m.
The University's TigerCard Office
is introducing a new, more convenient way for users to manage their
points accounts to purchase food and library services on campus.
The TigerCard, the University's ID card for students, faculty, staff and affiliates, has a magnetic strip that allows it to serve as a debit card for various campus vendors, ranging from residential college dining halls to restaurants and stores in the Frist Campus Center to the libraries' photocopiers.
The TigerCard Office has established a new user-friendly "online store" for managing the points that will be more dependable than the former Web site. Both previous and new users will need to register with the online store before they will be able to access their accounts.
"JSA Technologies, the new vendor we have selected, has a proven track record of 99.5 percent uptime with its sites," said Dave Tierney, associate director of the TigerCard Office. "We expect to provide much more reliable service and a number of new options for users."
The new online store is located at https://services.jsatech.com/index.php?cid=69. To establish an account, click on the "I'm New Here" link in the upper right corner of the page. Those who have bookmarked the old site in their browsers will need to create a new bookmark.
In addition to reliability, a key improvement includes allowing users to view a transaction history for up to six months rather than three days, which is the current limit. The new site also will allow users to: view meal plan account balances online; have a low-balance warning sent by e-mail to themselves or others, such as parents; and set up recurring deposits for a designated amount from a credit card when the balance gets too low.
"We've made these changes in response to feedback from our users," Tierney said. "We're encouraging them to register on the new site and experience the improvements. We're also encouraging those who haven't before purchased points to try this convenient, cashless way to make purchases on campus."
The University currently offers two kinds of points for the TigerCards: dining points and Paw points. Both are available through the online store.
All dining and Paw points can be used at: the Frist Gallery, Café Vivian, the Healthy Eating Lab and the C-Store, all in the Frist Campus Center; the New South, Woodrow Wilson and Chancellor Green Cafés; and concession stands at Princeton Stadium and Jadwin Gymnasium. Faculty and staff dining points and Paw points can be used at E-Quad and Genomics Cafés and at the Garden and Tap Rooms at Prospect House. Student dining points can be used in residential college dining halls. Paw points can be used in the libraries for photocopying services. In the near future, the two point systems will be merged to simplify the process, according to Tierney.

Electrix Pro Filter Factory
The Filter Factory is a stand-alone 2-unit rack module stereo/mono analog filter. Use it to filter drum loops, synth arpeggiations, vocal tracks or entire mixes! It features notch, low-, high- and band-pass filtering modes. It functions as a stereo filter with a 2-pole slope, or in mono with a 4-pole slope. Big fat knobs allow hands on real-time tweaking of the Frequency Cutoff, Resonance, LFO Depth and Speed, Distortion and more. Plus it's totally MIDI equipped for recording, triggering and sequencing tweaks of the various parameters.
The Filter Factory is great for DJ's and for Musicians. It sounds great and IS analog with digital control, stability and features. 'Momentary' buttons allow you to drop in or tap in an effect, either the filter or the distortion which is great for live situations! The LFO section allows you to generate nice sweeping filter effects or other weird modulations. There's a Tap-Tempo to match the LFO to the stuff your filtering too. Truly worth getting! It has been used by U2, John Digweed, Freddy Fresh, La Peste, Peace Off, Hellfish & DJ Producer, DJ Pure, and the Chemical Brothers.
The FilterQueen is a 2-unit half-rack design with just a few knobs and buttons and is most likely suited for DJs and easy-access live use. It's still a stereo analog filter with switchable notch, band, low and highpass filtering, envelope follower, LFO and the Momentary button. There's also a large bypass ("Engage") switch. The knobs control the filter cutoff, resonance, LFO speed, depth and more. There is no MIDI, no patch storage, no external audio input or gain controls. The EQ Killer is another 2-unit half-rack design for DJs and performers. It's basically three independent bandpass filters which can be used to filter out or isolate certain frequency ranges of music. These sold for about $300 each.

This is no plain old grilled chicken breast sandwich. Brushing on a seasoned honey-mustard baste turns the ordinary into something special.
Grill extra chicken breasts, then wrap and freeze to use in salads or sandwiches for another meal.
This is the perfect recipe for using up some mustard that's been "hiding" in the refrigerator. Just about any variety you have—spicy brown, honey or coarse-grained—will blend with the honey, oregano and ground red pepper flavors you add.

Deeplinks Blog posts about Cell Tracking
Do you own an Android device? Is it less than three years old? If so, then when your phone's screen is off and it's not connected to a Wi-Fi network, there's a high risk that it is broadcasting your location history to anyone within Wi-Fi range that wants to listen.
The U.S. Supreme Court's 1979 decision of Smith v. Maryland turned 35 years old last week. Since it was decided, Smith has stood for the idea that people have no expectation of privacy in information they expose to others. Labeled the third party "doctrine" (even by EFF itself), Smith has come up over and over in the debates surrounding electronic surveillance and NSA spying.
EFF sent a letter this week opposing SB 962, a bill by California Senator Mark Leno that mandates every phone that will be sold in the state to have a "kill switch"—a technological solution that would remotely disable a smartphone if, say, it were stolen or lost. Despite our concerns, the bill passed out of committee in the Assembly.
There's a simple reason why we opposed this particular bill—and why we almost always oppose bills with technological mandates. Technology is fast; the law is slow. While there is an important place for policy in a world where the Internet and devices are readily available to both consumers and government actors, institutionalizing specific technical solutions—such as making every cell phone manufacturer feature a "kill switch" program—is risky.
When courts issue new decisions about how law enforcement can obtain records and data from companies, it's not just the police who have to follow the new rules. The companies that turn over the data have a big role to play in ensuring that the law is followed. A new court decision requiring police to use a search warrant in order to obtain cell tracking records underscores the importance phone companies can play in extending important privacy protections throughout the country.
One of the most unnerving things about modern communications technology is the way devices constantly leak information about their physical whereabouts—to mobile carriers, network operators, e-mail providers, web sites, governments, even shopping mall owners. Many of these information leakages are simple historical accidents. The designers of technologies never considered that technical standards would let everyone around you notice your device's presence. They never considered that technical choices would let web sites infer when two people are (or aren't) spending the night in the same residence, or let your phone company follow you around virtually from moment to moment.

text: The International Diabetes Federation (IDF) has led the global diabetes community for 60 years. Founded in Amsterdam, Holland, on 23 September 1950, IDF spent some years in London, UK, before setting up headquarters at its current location in Brussels, Belgium. It has developed into an umbrella organization of around 200 national diabetes associations, representing the interests of the increasing number of people with diabetes and those at risk. The Federation has grown up quickly and is now at the forefront of the fight to halt the epidemic of type 2 diabetes and other non-communicable diseases (NCDs).

I insulted someone once and got suspended for a week. But that was years ago I guess the rules have changed. Then I was basically begged to come back because I believe the mod didn't care for the person I insulted.
You HONESTLY believe this would not have incited pure panic???? There would have been a run on banking like never before. And our media would have fed the beast like crazy
Like I said.... I never agree with Sambo, But you have to really have your blinders on to not see this point.

It is a global market. US and foriegn banks are counterparties in countless trades totaling in the trillions.
Because every body would have tried to withdraw at once the banks would have not had the cash to honor the request.
Just download one of the large banks 10Ks and see how many 100s of billions in deposits they have.
The fed stepped up this time inserting massive liquidity into the market and the treasury made loans to these banks to keep them from running out of liquidity as the value of their assets were marked to market thus providing less to borrow against while the liqidity to borrow was drying up. They did this too late when the market crashed in the 20s thus causing a run on banks...they learned from history.

It just dawned on me recently that in TPM, Anakin isn't in a real race, he's in a kiddie joke race. That's the only explanation I can think of for why EVERY racer is a little person. How do you explain Mawhonic, who is supposed to be an adult Gran and yet is only slightly taller than a 9-year-old? It's a "freak show" race, pure and simple, the people of Mos Espa are secretly laughing at the racers, most of whom are height-challenged, and Teemto Pagalies is mentally handicapped. The whole thing is probably bankrolled by Ben Quadinaros who knows this is the only way anybody will let him race, that's why his is the only podracer with 4 engines, and even then he screws it up!
It's cruel and it's sick.

The mathematical theory of persistence answers questions such as which species, in a mathematical model of interacting species, will survive over the long term. It applies to infinite-dimensional as well as to finite-dimensional dynamical systems, and to discrete-time as well as to continuous-time semiflows.
This monograph provides a self-contained treatment of persistence theory that is accessible to graduate students. The key results for deterministic autonomous systems are proved in full detail such as the acyclicity theorem and the tripartition of a global compact attractor. Suitable conditions are given for persistence to imply strong persistence even for nonautonomous semiflows, and time-heterogeneous persistence results are developed using so-called "average Lyapunov functions".
Applications play a large role in the monograph from the beginning. These include ODE models such as an SEIRS infectious disease in a meta-population and discrete-time nonlinear matrix models of demographic dynamics. Entire chapters are devoted to infinite-dimensional examples including an SI epidemic model with variable infectivity, microbial growth in a tubular bioreactor, and an age-structured model of cells growing in a chemostat.

Dang I thought this was a saltwater website o well. From my saltwater experience a few pointers with the fresh water would to get a water pump for like 20 bucks to get better water flow in your tanks. Change the water often, that is the difference from a bad tank and a clean one. Do not overfeed, making a dirty tank. Get a clean up crew, like a cleaner fish or shrimp or something. Try and keep the temperatures constant not going up and down, up and down. overstocking is not cool.

A) Welcome!
B) There is a rather large saltwater subforum with some very knowlegable experts.
Here is the general saltwater section:
And here is the Reef section:
C) You have some nice pointers there, those are probably some of the most common mistakes new people to the hobby make.
D) Why is this in the awards section? A mod will probably move it but next time be a little more careful.

I'm looking for someone to practice with a few times a week at McGill. I'm around a 3.0, give or take.
Views: 195
Replies to This Discussion
I might be available depending on the time you're looking to play. I'm also 3.0
My schedule is all over the place, but I'm free evenings (Sat/Sun/Mon/Tues) and a handful of afternoons, but it depends on the week.
Available in the morning (9-12) during the week except fridays. I do not own a membership at mcgill though. Around 3.5 is my level. Thank you.
Only one person has to have a membership, so no problem there. How about Monday morning, then?
Cool, sent you a friend request so I can message you.
Still looking for the occasional practice match? I'm about 2.5 and have played 3.0 and have been competitive. I lost handily but had a good workout. Let me know what your schedule is and I will work around it.
I am about 2.5 and I am also looking for partners, I live in DDO. Let me know if interested.
Hi David,
I am looking for someone to play tennis with, I am about 2.5. Let me know if interested, my schedule is flexible.

Everyone knows that one frustratingly perfect man; the guy who can squat 120kg and gets that promotion; the guy who has impeccably smart style and has a different woman on his arm every day of the week, but is still thought of as respectable and charming. Follow these tips and become your very own, real-life superman (cape not included).
Get a superman look
Every superman needs to look good. If you think spending time on your appearance is unmanly, then you need to reassess. Face it, the days when men could shave their heads and go for a run once a week and get called "well-kept" are gone. The modern man has to have style and looks if he wants success. The No1 area to spend time on is your face. If you shave, make sure you use pre-shaving oil beforehand. Baby oil is a cheap option. Next, tidy up your brows with some tweezers and a pencil. Place your pencil at the bridge of your nose and hold it vertically. The spot where the pencil ends should be where your eyebrow also ends. Pluck any hairs that stray past your pencil border.
Get a superman job
In our lives, we will probably spend more time with our colleagues than with our mates. So you have to love your job. If you're unhappy at work, assess the situation and try to come up with a solution.
Make a list of the things you like about work and another of things that you dislike. If your likes column outweighs your dislikes then it's great news. All you need to do now is tackle the dislikes.
If your dislikes column is longer than your likes, then it's time to search for something new. You can visit a careers adviser or even consider starting up your own business.
Get a superman diet
If you eat healthily, you will undoubtedly feel healthy too. Sometimes, though, it can be hard to know what it is you should and should not be eating. The best rule to use when you are trying to eat healthily is to prepare everything yourself. That way you know what is going on to your plate and you can control your portion sizes. If you struggle to make your own meals because you lack time, then make big batches of food at once. You can knock up a healthy chicken and bean filling in 25 minutes and store it in the fridge. Then all you need to do is add this to wholemeal wraps for a low-fat and filling meal.
Get a superman budget
Money, money, money; we could all do with some more of the stuff but getting your hands on it can seem impossible at times. Rather than getting more, a great way to bolster your budget is to try and cut back on what you spend it on. Take out your bank statements and work out the five things you spend the most money on. Now you've worked out where you spend your money, try to think of ways to reduce the cost. A great way to save a lot of money is to cancel gym memberships and invest in some kettle bells, a skipping rope and some resistance bands. You can do a lot of great workouts with this cheap and simple equipment and save at the same time.
Get a superman body
Looking like an action man doll isn't an option for most of us, but being happy with the way you look is. Start to take a more active approach to life. If there's an option to climb the stairs or take an elevator, take the stairs. Try to walk around at least once an hour; even if it's just a cheeky trip to the gents. Moving around regularly will raise your metabolic rate and help with your circulation. You could also buy some gym equipment and keep it in your living room. That way, when you watch TV you can work out. If you're on a budget and can't afford equipment, get creative. Make your own sandbag or pea shingle bag as an alternative to weights. Use a chair for dips and you can work your abs by just doing a plank.
Get a superman mind
We're not talking about superpowers, we're talking about the state of your mind. Ever heard the theory that people who think of themselves as lucky actually have more fortune than those who don't? The mind is powerful and therefore having a good, optimistic attitude is bound to have a positive impact. The trick to this smiley state is to keep busy; don't dwell on the past and focus on what could be. Helping others is another way to make life seem more fulfilling. Sometimes negative thinking also becomes a habit; a rut you can't climb out of.
Get a superman girl
Where would superman have been without his Lois Lane? Every guy needs a girl and if you've been flying solo for too long, or are unhappy with your current lady, it's time to start addressing the issue. The biggest obstacle to finding Miss Right is often you. Are you in a good place? Can you handle the ups and the downs of a relationship? If the answer is no, then think twice before you pursue anyone. It will only end badly. The second obstacle is finding your wonder woman. Sometimes it feels that all the decent women are hiding far, far away. To find Miss Right, be open-minded. Chat to strangers and consider girls you may not normally date.

By JB Clark/NEMS Daily Journal
VERONA – Police continue to follow leads five days after an apartment owner was shot and killed.
Jeya Suppiah, 46, of Verona, was shot and killed in the office building of the Bailey Apartments on Raymond Avenue on Friday night.
"We don't have any new information but we're checking a few leads right now that might help us," said Verona Police Chief Anthony Anderson.
"All we know is it's supposed to be a 6-foot-2-inch to 6-foot-3-inch light-skinned black male who weighs about 240 pounds."
Anthony said they have received some contradictory information but the description of the suspect they are using comes from apartment residents who saw a man fitting the description behind the complex's office building immediately following the gunshots.
Apartment residents said they heard gunshots between 5:30 p.m. and 5:45 p.m.
The 911 call was made at 5:46 p.m.
In addition to Suppiah, there was a second man who was shot.
The second man survived the gunshot wound and was taken to North Mississippi Medical Center.
Suppiah owned multiple properties in Verona.

2004 Teens' Top Ten:Teens vote for favorite young adult book
Teen readers across the country voted Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix as their favorite book to take the #1 spot on the annual Teens' Top Ten (TTT), sponsored by The Young Adult Library Services Association (YALSA), a division of the American Library Association (ALA). The vote took place during Teen Read Week October 17-23, 2004 and gave teens an opportunity to voice their choice of the best new young adult books.
TTT is a part of YALSA's YA Galley Project, which facilitates access to advance copies of young adult books to national teen voting groups. Five teen voting groups, appointed by YALSA's YA Galley Committee as official Teens' Top Ten readers, evaluated books that were published from November 2003 to October 2004, and created a list of 44 nominations for the best new books for young adults. Teen voters across the country then cast ballots for their three favorites, creating 2004 Teens' Top Ten booklist of the best new books for young adults.
Teens were encouraged to vote for their favorite young adult books during Teen Read Week, from the official nomination list posted online at the Teens' Top Ten site. Over 2,000 online ballots were cast and the results, combined with the results of a separate vote of the TTT groups, determined the final ranking of the ten top books of the year, as selected by teen readers.
With Rowling's fifth Harry Potter novel topping the list, the 2004 Teens' Top Ten includes:
1. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix by J. K. Rowling (Scholastic, 2003) Fantasy.
2. Eragon by Christopher Paolini (Knopf, 2003) Fantasy.
3. Pirates! by Celia Rees (Bloomsbury, 2003) Historical Fiction.
4. Trickster's Choice by Tamora Pierce (Random House, 2003) Fantasy.
5 Inkheart by Cornelia Funke (Chicken House/Scholastic, 2003) Fantasy.
6. A Great and Terrible Beauty by Libba Bray (Delacorte, 2004) Supernatural.
7. The Goose Girl by Shannon Hale (Bloomsbury, 2003) Fantasy.
8. Princess in Pink by Meg Cabot (HarperCollins, 2004) Realistic.
9. The Earth, My Butt, and Other Big Round Things by Carolyn Mackler (Candlewick, 2003) Realistic.
10. Curse of the Blue Tattoo by L.A. Meyer (Harcourt, 2004) Historical Fiction.
TTT voting groups include the MLHS Booktalkers at Medical Lake High School in Medical Lake, Wash.; the Teen Advisory Board at Allen County Public Library in Fort Wayne, In.; the Teen Advisory Board: Readers R' Us at Wilson Middle School in Plano, Texas; the Teen Advisory Council at B. B. Comer Memorial Library in Sylacauga, Ala.; and the Teen Review Board at East Lansing Public Library in East Lansing, Mich.
TTT is coordinated by YALSA's YA Galley Committee whose members include Diane P. Monnier, chair; Edith Cummings; Tracey Firestone; Paulette M. Goodman; Lynn Kaminski; Mary F. Long; and Sydna Wexler.

Subacute Care
In August 1997, Garrett Regional Medical Center added Subacute Care to its expanding number of services. This 10-bed unit is designed for patients of all ages who are too sick to return home or go to a traditional nursing home, but not sick enough to remain in the normal hospital setting.
Rehabilitation or medically complex patients are the most appropriate candidates for Subacute Care. Some patients who fit this description are: post-stroke patients; post-surgical patients; cardio respiratory patients; wound care patients; patients needing services such as physical therapy and occupational therapy or diabetic and colostomy teaching.
The Unit offers a high intensity of nursing care designed to enable the patient to reach their highest level of function and reclaim their independence.
The Subacute Unit, which features a comfortable, home-like environment with its own dining area, activity room and laundry facility, provides patients with the care and education needed to function at home upon discharge.
Family members are invited to dine with their loved ones and may do so for a minimal charge. To make such an arrangement, call (301) 533-4220. Meal times are:
Breakfast – 7:30 a.m.
Lunch – 12:30 p.m.
Dinner – 5:30 p.m.
Bedtime Snack – 8:00 p.m.

Cohort Programs reach out to the community to serve those students who live outside of Johnson City and have family and career responsibilities that make attending classes on campus impossible.
An educational cohort is designed to allow a group of students to work together toward their degree or academic objective.
For students who live or work a distance from the University, cohort programs are often established at off-campus locations. This enables busy, working adults to further their education in spite of other demands on their time.

Like the United States, Israel is an ethnic melting pot of cultures, religions and immigrants. As a result, the food scene in Israel is extraordinarily diverse and also of a very high standard. 80% of Israelis are Jews of whom more than half were born in Israel. But most of their parents, grandparents or great grandparents came to Israel from more than 120 countries, bringing with them foods, recipes and food traditions from six continents. And the 20% of non-Jewish Israelis have their own food traditions too. Israel is also a part of the Western world, and very little happens in Los Angeles, London, Tokyo and Paris that doesn't find its way to Israel within a few weeks. Put all this together and you have the ingredients for one of the most dynamic, fascinating – and delicious – food scenes in the world.
If you'd ask an Israeli 25 or 30 years ago what is the country's typical fare, chances are the answer would be felafel, humus, tehina, with a side order of couscous or gefilte fish. A lot has happened in 25 or 30 years. All these dishes still exist, of course, indeed the first four are ubiquitous. But Israel has it all now, from hamburgers (Israel's first McDonald's opened in the 90's) to pizza to sushi (more sushi restaurants per capita in Tel Aviv than in any city on earth, including Tokyo), to the cuisines of India and China, to some of the finest influences of Paris, Brussels, Lyon, Barcelona and New York – the Israel food scene is utterly sophisticated and in step with the latest trends. Many of Israel's leading chefs have studied, prepped, apprenticed at some of the finest restaurants in the world.
But there's more. There are restaurants in Israel that serve cuisines that exist nowhere else on earth: particularly the cuisines from areas now devoid of Jews, where large Jewish populations created their own eclectic cuisines, such as in Salonika, Dubrovnik, Tripolitania, Mesopotamia, Persia, Yemen and Bukhara.
There are two elements that make food in Israel so unique. One is our location on the shores of the Mediterranean. Like Turkey, Greece, Italy, France and Spain, our cuisine reflects the warm sun, the olives that grow on our trees, the olive-oil we press, and the breads, fish and meats that have made the Mediterranean the source of what is considered by many as the world's healthiest diet and, quite simply, the source of the best things to eat. Secondly, Israel produces the most splendid quality of fruits, vegetables and dairy products. From the legendary Jaffa oranges first exported to Europe in the 1930's, to the kiwis, star fruit, citrus, tomatoes, peppers, flowers, yoghurts and cheeses we export today.
every restaurant in Israel has menus in English. Occasionally, the
spellings or translations can be a bit strange, but these can provide
amusement as well as charm. Like for anywhere else in the world,
research restaurants on-line or use a good guide-book, and get advice
from friends or your hotel front desk about their favorites. And use
common-sense when choosing a place to eat, selecting places that look
clean and welcoming and where there is a large turnover of diners.
Most restaurants and food stalls are open non-stop from the morning until the evening hours.
Restaurants that are also bars remain open until the small hours of the night. In the major cities, especially in Tel Aviv, you can find something to eat at any hour of the day or night.
are a must at the top restaurants – particularly in Tel Aviv. A great
deal for tourists are the Business Lunches at restaurants – particularly
the top-rated places – in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. These lunches are special 'prix fixe' menus with several choices – at prices a third or half of the same meal in the evening.
generally eat later than Americans. Lunch is usually some time between 1
and 3PM. And while the better restaurants are open from 6 or 7 – they
don't usually become crowded until 9PM or later.
Israel's early days, pioneers on kibbutzim would rise at 4AM to work
the fields and milk the cows, and return for a hearty breakfast at 8 or
9AM. Breakfast would revolve largely around their own produce: eggs,
bread, dairy products, fresh vegetables and fruit.
forward five or six decades and the pioneers' breakfasts have evolved
into one of the most delicious – and renowned – gastronomic experiences
in Israel. Every hotel serves a version of the "Israeli Breakfast" –
invariably a giant buffet of vegetables, salads, cheese, eggs, smoked
fish, breads, pastries, yoghurts, cereals and fruit.
the Mediterranean: café life is major in Israel, with sidewalk cafes
throughout every city and town. They offer a varied menu of coffees,
teas, cakes, sandwiches, pastries and light meals. Israelis often sit in
cafés for hours over a cup of coffee. One of the Israeli favorites is
"café affuch" ("upside-down coffee"), a combination café cappuccino/café
latte. U.S. style coffee bars are more and more common in Israel, with

love to eat at all hours. Felafel is considered Israel's number one
street food, and it's available everywhere. If you're driving, the
restaurants, snack-shops and stores at gas stations are invariably
spotless and serve excellent fare. Also ubiquitous are juice stands –
where oranges, grapefruits, carrots, pomegranates, grapes are squeezed
to order.
is an adjective ("kashrut" is the noun) used to describe food that is
"fit" or "clean" or, in other words, prepared and served according to
Judaism's 3,000-year-old dietary laws.
general, kashrut prohibits the eating of pork (Muslims proscribe pork
too) and shellfish, or the mixing of meat ingredients with dairy
ingredients. (It's more complicated than that, but these are the basic
nuts and bolts.)
Israelis observe kashrut – or some version of it – while many, perhaps
most, do not. Almost every hotel in Israel is kosher (so that anyone can
eat or stay there), but the majority of Israeli restaurants are not
kosher. Restaurants that are kosher display a kashrut certificate;
kosher restaurants usually close after lunch on Friday and don't reopen
until late Saturday night, or noon on Sunday.
Drinking in Israel
water throughout Israel is perfectly safe to drink. Bottled water
(still and fizzy) is available everywhere. When touring, be sure to keep
hydrated: the sun is hot and many tourists forget they have to keep
drinking. Fresh fruit juices are wonderful in Israel, and every kind of
soft drink is available. Israeli beer is excellent too.
Wine in Israel
For, 3,000 years, vineyards and wine have been part of the celebration of Jewish holidays and the Sabbath. In the late 19th century the wine industry in Israel was given a boost by France's Baron Edmond de Rothschild and by the dawn of the 21st century the production and flavor of wine in Israel had reached the highest international levels of quality. In 2008, the influential U.S. magazine, Wine Spectator, published a wide feature on wine in Israel and summed it up by affirming that "Israel's wines are world class."
are more than 200 wineries in Israel – some tiny, some small, some
medium, some massive – producing excellent red and white vintages and
sparkling wines.

The Greatest Team Ever, That Didn't Win The Big One
Posted on 5 Apr 2011 by Sean Eckhardt.
The NFL is in somewhat of a confused state right now. On one hand, the league is frozen due to the current lockout, but on the other hand, the focus is on the draft, the future, and which stars will land on which teams. Certainly a bit of a paradox. So instead of trying to sort out the current mess and look into some fictional crystal ball towards the future, I figured that a loo...

Thanks in advance
The small premium over Pro Plan and Eukanuba is well worth it.
I can't comment on allergies but most of what people think are allergies are just due to a poorly made food. Gunky ears for example. I have a friend with a golden that swore his dog was allergic to chicken, but he is doing amazing on Pursuit.

Cool testimonial from the Facebook Page:
"Dr Tim:
I have been an avid NSTRA field trialer since 1989 and have fed almost all the premium brand dog foods so when I say your food is the best it... is from experience. I have now switched all my dogs to your food and am seeing fabulous results in base endurance , performance stamina and weight stabilization during training. I am preparing one of my dogs for the UKC NSTRA National Endurance Trial in Nebraska at the end of this month. I feel my dog is in the best shape of her life and more prepared for this national endurance trial than any dog I have ever qualified and I think it has everything to do with your food. Interestingly, I switched to your food after losing a bet to Tc Morrow, a fellow field trialer, after he offered to feed my dog some of your food at a trail immediately following a run when she was exerted and hot. I told him she wouldn't eat it because she had just finished running, he persisted and I told him if she ate one bite I would buy a bag . My dog ate the entire bowl without picking her head up. I am now on my 7th bag. Keep up the good work!"
Lee M.
We have had our 3 labs on it for 6 months now and love what we see. We use Pursuit and and have it delivered right to our door by Petflo. We find that we can get by with thier 44lbs bag every 3 1\2 weeks. We have seen the typical improvements everyone says they see when they switch foods, the shinner coats, more energy, smaller stools yadda yadda yadda. What we did see in one of our dogs brought tears to our eyes and it can only be the food. Teal is a 10yr old black female. We got her from Mary Howley and never could have asked for a better dog. As she aged though she spent more and more time laying by herself on our bed during the day and not playing with our other dogs. She would be very active as we trained or hunted but she was what we called anti-social around the house. We chaulked it up to "just the way she is as she is getting older. We are also a host family for the Milwaukee Brewers minor league team in town and even when the boys tried to play with her she would for a few minutes and go back into the bedroom. Well with in a week of switching to Dr. Tims she was out of the bedroom and bringing us toys to play with. She then started bring toys to the other dogs and forcing them to play with her. One of the players that lived with us last year is back this year and the first night he was home he asked kiddingly if we got a new dog. He can not believe the difference. We feel so bad that for years we just dismissed her behavior when obviously she was not doing well on our last food. Sorry all for the long response, but I want to give credit when due. Also quickly, awesome customer service from Dr. Tim himself. Very quick to answer ?'s.

VIDEO: Eagles share the wealth in Red-White Game
CHENEY, Wash. - Eastern Washington University quarterbacks shared the wealth and redshirt freshman Cooper Kupp was the main recipient Saturday (April 27) in the annual Red-White Spring Football Game at Roos Field in Cheney, Wash.
Eastern quarterbacks Vernon Adams, Anthony Vitto and Jordan West combined for 256 yards and four touchdowns in the final scrimmage of spring practice for the Eagles. Kupp, a 2012 graduate of Davis High School in Yakima, Wash., caught eight passes for 119 yards and two scores.VIDEO: Eagles share the wealth in Red-White Game
Senior linebacker Ronnie Hamlin led the Eastern starting defense with five tackles for the defense, which held the offense to 105 net rushing yards on 35 carries (3.0 per carry). In all, the offense finished with five touchdowns and 361 yards on 76 total plays (4.8 per play) on another blustery day in Cheney.
Adams, the returning starter, completed 9-of-15 passes for 105 yards and two touchdowns, and had a pass intercepted by senior cornerback Ronald Baines. Vitto, the team's backup, was 10-of-15 for 72 yards and scored on an 8-yard run. West was 5-of-10 for 79 yards and had two TD tosses.
"Overall, I am happy with the progress we made this week," said Eastern head coach Beau Baldwin. "We had a nicer day Tuesday, and we executed really well Tuesday. We have been challenged more than ever having a new group developing timing with 20 to 25 mile winds. It adds to the challenge. It is not an excuse, but it makes it that much tougher (to get timing). Tuesday we had a calmer day, and we were able to get our timing down better. We have to play in all weather, but starting out (with high winds) has been a challenge. I was happy to see the progress we have made this week. We responded later in the scrimmage as opposed to declining (offensively)."
Junior running back Quincy Forte rushed for a team-high 49 yards, and senior Ashton Clark added four catches for 43 yards. Reserve linebacker Zachariah Storms led all tacklers with six in the "game" matching the Eagle offensive units (the "White") against the defensive squads (the "Red").
The offense scored three times in the first half, with each quarterback leading one TD drive each. Adams led the starting offense on a nine-play, 68-yard drive, capped by a 22-yard touchdown pass to Cory Mitchell. Vitto led the White on a seven-play, 25-yard red zone touchdown, with Vitto capping the drive with an 8-yard TD run. And on the final possession of the first half, West led the White on a 7-play, 62-yard drive, and found Terry Jackson for a 24-yard score.
In the second half, the White scored twice on a pair of red zone possessions that were both two-play, 27-yard drives. Both ended with TD catches for Kupp – first on a 27-yarder from Adams and the second on a 26-yard strike from West.
"I thought there were less unforced errors, and when there were plays being made, I saw that plays were being made," said Baldwin. "You want the defense to break-up the first touchdown, but that was a great play by Mitchell. We don't want to ever throw a pick, but that was a great play by Baines. I am okay when there are plays being made, and we move on to the next snap."
The offense was coming off a scrimmage a week ago that was dominated by the defense. The defense finished with three interceptions, three sacks and had seven passes broken up on a blustery day at "The Inferno." The offense finished with 44 rushing attempts and 44 passing attempts, but managed only 3.7 yards per play. They had 122 yards rushing and 201 passing on the day, and also had a few miscues on snaps from center.
The Eagles will practice three more times – April 30th at 4 p.m., May 1 at 4:30 p.m. and May 2 at 4 p.m. – before heading into the offseason. Eastern opens the 2013 season on Aug. 31 at Oregon State.
"It's a challenge (having practices after the spring game)," added Baldwin. "Next week is going to be one of the toughest challenges for players and coaches. It has that final feel to it. The worst thing we can do is go through the motions. If we do that we should cancel practice, go lift weights and move on to summer. Even though we played our spring game, we still have some practices left. We are trying to get sharper at the things we are doing. We won't add a bunch of plays, but we may add some things we want them to understand before break. We want to get sharper on what we are doing right now and cleaner so there is less thinking."

"Helping Hunters Train Their Dogs"
i watched it. I think it leaves a lot of food for thought on how we think we would react to an incident. I don't think most people would react any different. I also think if you do carry a gun you better go to a range more then once a month to practice things like drawing from a holster and drawing from a holster under a layer of clothing. A lot of things to think about in a very short period of time. With all that said I think if you can train yourself to keep your wits about yourself I would rather be one with a gun then with out one.

This program should have been required to have a disclaimer before it:
"The following episode of 20/20 provides no balanced counterpoint reporting and is intended solely to support our corporate editorial position that individuals should not be allowed to posses personal protection firearms."
This purports to be a "realistic scenario" and then belies the whole premise by having an expert marksman, that trains continuously, attack the class. When, if we choose to believe their assertions, the "attacker" would most likely have lesser skills than the defender, since he would not be able to practice and could very well be under the influence of drugs/alcohol which would further detract from his shooting "skills".
Also, one of the key factors, is that the attacker counts on the victims to be in a "gun free zone" and thus the likelihood of someone actually having the means to defend themselves is next to nothing. This so-called "attacker" not only KNOWS that there is someone armed in the class, he knows who it is! There are no allowances for the surprise that the "attacker" would have upon finding that someone is armed and shooting back, thus forcing him to take cover as well.
Then, it is implied that your best defense/weapon is to lie on the floor & "play dead" / try to call 911. Great! Just the message that we need to send any potential shooters! There will be no resistance and you'll be able to take your time while walking around the room to shoot anyone you choose. What about the people who were able to make it out of the room unharmed while the defender is drawing fire? 20/20's focus? Well she 'almost' shot someone!
Finally, they state they could not find ANY studies regarding the effective use of protection firearms. All they would have had to do is pick up 1 issue of American Rifleman or American Hunter magazine and they could have had at least 12 -20 instances where people successfully defend themselves, loved ones or property with a legally owned firearm, some w/o firing a single shot. But that wouldn't have fit into their propaganda campaign for the soon-to-be coming restrictions/ban legislation.
The bias in this report was palpable. Good thing the "Fairness Doctrine" isn't applicable!

Farm Rich Recall Affects NY Residents
NEW YORK (AP) - Health officials say at least 24 people have become sick from an outbreak of E. coli infections linked to frozen snack foods marketed to children.
No one has died, but eight people, mostly kids or teens, were hospitalized.
An investigation detected E. coli in an open package of Farm Rich brand frozen chicken quesadillas at an ill person's home.
On Friday, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported illnesses in Alabama, Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Mississippi, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Washington and Wisconsin.
The Buffalo, N.Y.-based Rich Products Corp. has recalled quesadillas, mozzarella bites and other frozen products made in November.
BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) - Rich Products Corp. has announced a voluntary recall of its Farm Rich Mini Quesadillas and other Farm Rich products because of a possible E. coli contamination.
The recall, announced Thursday, also includes the Buffalo, N.Y.-based company's Farm Rich Mini Pizza Slices, Farm Rich Philly Cheese Steaks, Farm Rich Mozzarella Bites and Market Day Mozzarella Bites. They were produced Nov. 12 through Nov. 19.
The Farm Rich products were distributed in retail stores nationwide. The company says it's working with the Food Safety Inspection Service in the U.S. Department of Agriculture to identify the possible contamination source.
Health officials say symptoms of E. coli infection could occur up to 10 days after exposure and can include diarrhea, abdominal cramps, nausea and vomiting.
Consumers with questions about the recall can call 1-888-220-5955. You can also visit: http://www.farmrich.com/

In the past few days and weeks I have received numerous phone calls from Webelos Den Leaders "Looking for a Troop". Yes, it's that time of the year for cross overs and Arrow of Light ceremonies, and new boys entering the Troop. Its a good time!
To help those transitioning I thought I'd post a short video I picked up along the way. Not only is it good for new parents and Scout leaders making the transition, but I think it is good for all of us to review. Since we strive for the ideal as a traditional Scouting unit, the video shows what "Right looks like" and that is what we are constantly looking for.
Happy Scouting!

Product Questions
What's the main differences between the nano and the 3155? Also, would be possible to upgrade in the future without having to buy the whole thing?
The nano osmolator is just a simple float switch and that is it. The 3155 has the dual level control with the optical eye for primary control and the float switch emergency backup. The 3155 offers superior redundancy.
It would not be possible to upgrade, they are entirely different units.
Other then the container the kit really comes with everything you need to get started. The pump has a max head height of about 7ft.
The distance between the float being triggered and off is between 1/4" to 1/3" Feel free to let us know if you have any further questions!
Thanks for the feedback.
the Nano will have a 5 minute shut off and no ability to adjust he flow of the pump. In most cases this will be too limited for the 120 gallon. Feel free to let us know if you have any further questions!
You can always try implementing a large magnet to ensure the hold is stronger. Other than that, there are some more permanent applications such as small amount of super glue. In any case your best bet will be to contact TUNZE and see if they have any tips or tricks.
Tunze – 512-833-7546 email@example.com
That is a valid concern and if you are keeping SPS in the 10 gallon then we would suggest looking into the Osmolator 3155, however for most fish, and other corals like softies and LPS the Osmolator nano will work just fine. Since the return pump compartment is much smaller than larger tanks, when water evaporates it will move the water level pretty quickly and activate the float switch which is pretty sensitive.
The unit is not suited to large aquariums because it has a timer based cut off so the pump will only run for a short period of time. Using it with a large tank can result in the the pump turning off before its finished replacing the evaporation.
Full Details
Introducing the little brother to the Tunze Osmolator, one of the industry's most trusted automatic water top-off device and BRS Recommended. Designed specifically for smaller aquariums, roughly 50 gallons and under, the Osmolator Nano 3152 is a slimmed down version of the full sized 3155. It includes a processor-based anti-overfill system which turns the pump off if after five minutes of filling the level has still not been reached. The Osmolator Nano includes the control unit, low voltage (6V) pump, power adapter, 3m hose, magnet mount and protective cover.
Good for the price By Doug e fresh on 4/10/2017Doug e fresh would recommend this product to a friendI have only used this for a month and it has worked well. The only problem I have is I don't quit trust the single float switch.
But time will tell if I learn to trust it.
Not typical Tunze quality By Mark on 2/27/2017Mark wouldn't recommend this product to a friendBought this thinking I would be getting the same quality as it's big brother, but this one is complete garbage. The pump has failed on me several times, requiring me to unplug it and plug it back in. Luckily I caught it quickly each time, but I definitely wouldn't trust this if I went on vacation. Also, unlike it's big brother, this ATO only has one sensor (a float sensor) that is prone to getting stuck. I would recommend only getting the bigger osmolator or using a different brand that uses an optical sensor.
Pump Issues By Matthew on 2/23/2017Matthew wouldn't recommend this product to a friendThere appears to be issues with pump quality of these units. The pump that shipped with my nano could only develop about 2 inches of head.
Tunze sent me a second pump which seems to be ok.
NOTE TO CANADIAN CUSTOMERS: You may have issues with warranty processing in Canada. Tunze Canada will not honor warranty on products purchased in the US, Tunze USA will only cover the parts and labor on products in Canada due to expensive shipping costs to Canada.
Would not recommend By Wilson on 12/12/2016Wilson wouldn't recommend this product to a friendI bought this with the idea it would make my life easier. The first pump failed and Tunze replaced it. The second pump ran great for @ a week then stopped filling up the tank unless I unplugged it and plugged it back in. They are now sending a third pump however I'm not holding my breath. Had I known this would happen I would have purchased another model.
Excellent product By Richie D on 11/4/2016Richie D would recommend this product to a friendSure is convenient not having to add to-off water all the time. Just went away for the weekend and didn't have to worry about whether or not the gravity fed system I had always used would work or not. Many times I would come home to find the pump sucking air and the aquarium down about 4 inches. Not this time! While it is very expensive, it does save a lot of headaches and potential loss of fish and corals. Absolutely recommend it.
Great mini version of the bigger ato By Sgt Harold on 9/13/2016Sgt Harold would recommend this product to a friendI brought this for my Red Sea max 250 rimless . It has a small tank that I use a 5 gal bucket to keep full. Keeping salinity if important in maintaining a stably ecosystem .
Part #4017.000 Controller Osmolator nano device By Max on 8/3/2016Max wouldn't recommend this product to a friendI have written to the company in Germany to try to get a new part #4017.000 Controller Osmolator Nano device. I have to unplug the device and reconnect it every cpl days to get the unit to work properly to top off. It makes a noise like it wants to pump water to my reef tank but will not until I unplug the device and re-connect it then it works for a day or two. I hope I can get a replacement part as I only bought this from BRS beginning of July last month. I sent the scan of my invoice to the company in Germany as well so waiting on a response.
Great By darryl hey on 8/1/2016darryl hey wouldn't recommend this product to a friendhave 3 of these on nano tanks 29 biocube 40 breader and 45 cube works great! have been running for 2 years now
Auto shut off By Chris on 7/2/2016Chris wouldn't recommend this product to a friendThe float sensor got stuck on and the pump did not turn off. The auto turn off did not work. Luckily the story revisor was almost empty and my tank did not overflow. I don't trust it any more need to upgrade to the one with the optical sensor.
Great nano ATO By Tommy on 6/13/2016Tommy would recommend this product to a friendI installed the Tunze nano ATO in my Corallife Biocube 29. I placed it in the 3rd chamber with the return pump. So far it works perfectly. It has helped stabilize the tank and my corals could not be happier. Great little ATO.
Had defective pump By Mike on 4/25/2016Mike would recommend this product to a friendMy experience is mix. The product works well for 10 days then stopped. Tunze customer service replace the pump and is wrking fine now. Just the trouble of not wrking and having to contact Tunze for replace part.
Works great! By Rachelle on 2/15/2016Rachelle would recommend this product to a friendThis is a very nice ATO system, it works like a charm and keeps my salinity nice and stable. My only complaint is that it doesn't have a way to keep the pump sitting flat.

finagle the fenestra
So I have a working laptop again, but the touchpad has frankly stupid "touch then drag" behaviour that makes window placement an absolute pain. In my lunch hour yesterday, lacking the internet access I needed to address the Clojure issue that I had originally holed up in the Barbican library to work on (couldn't get a 3G or a wireless connection) I decided to look again at last year's 'throw-window' sawfish hackery and have turned it into something slightly more brutal: now instead of slinging the focussed window right to the screen edge it only moves it to butt up against the next window on the screen (more or less).
The code is at https://github.com/telent/dotfiles/blob/master/.sawfish/lisp/throw-window.jl (i.e. it hasn't moved) and there are a couple of other changes
- it's now a module, which required some experimentation as the documentation is a bit more abstract and less concrete than I'd like. Note that
- The entire file is now inside the body of the
- The symbols in the
exportclause can now be referenced, as written, in (what for want of a keener understanding of how it actually works I am calling) the global environment. By which I mean to say, we call the function from outside the module as
throw-window-downnot as
- the command names didn't need exporting but are nevertheless globally available anyway. Don't ask me why.
do-movehas been enhanced with a call to
window-frame-offsetso that the pointer is warped to where we actually were relative to the window contents instead of being off by the size of the titlebar/left border.

There often comes a time when a senior may need more care than a family member can personally provide. This panel discussion will inform participants about other care options including hiring an in-home caregiver, attending an adult day care program, or moving to a residential living facility. Family caregivers can use the information presented at this event to create a plan that anticipates future care needs rather than reacting to a crisis. Panelists will also answer questions from the audience.
AGE invites ! you to join us for this FREE educational seminar exploring various care options on Saturday, February 25, from 10am until noon. This seminar will take place in the Dining Room of the AGE building at 3710 Cedar Street, which is just north of the UT campus. Seating space is limited so please RSVP as soon as possible to Bruce Kravitz at firstname.lastname@example.com or calling (512) 451-4611.
During the seminar, AGE will also provide free respite care in a separate room at the AGE building. If you are interested in requesting respite care, please call Carla at (512) 458-6305 no later than February 22.
