The successful £25m (gross) capital raise will fund a number of growth initiatives, including a significant expansion of the company's manufacturing presence in the US. Supported by a strong services offering in the US and UK, we believe the investment will allow the company to capture a significantly larger share of the biologics development value chain.

N+1 Singer - Vectura Group - VR315 risk outweighs longer-term potential
Following a review of product-level forecasts, we have reduced FY2017-18e revenue forecasts by 6.6% & 10.9% respectively. Following Mylan's generic Advair® setback, we have also downgraded the likelihood of success for VR315 in the US. Although we remain impressed by the depth of Vectura's pipeline, the potential valuation upside does not currently outweigh the risk of VR315 non-approval or delayed approval. We downgrade to Sell ahead of the 10th May GDUFA date with a TP of 131p (from 202p).

In-line trading update and FY 2018 estimates
The company provided a trading update for the year ending 31 March 2017, indicating that results will be in line with market expectations, with revenues of £14.25m and adjusted pre-tax profits of £1.1m. We introduce forecasts for FY 2018, which includes first commercial sales of Malaria tests but, pending the outcome and clarification of ongoing discussions with Immunodiagnostic Systems (IDS), we have assumed no revenues for Allersys. We maintain a 28p price target, which implies a FY 2018 EV/sales, EV/EBITDA and P/E multiples of 1.9x, 13.7x and 22.0x, respectively, but with the prospect of an agreement with IDH, we envisage upgrades during 2017.

N+1 Singer - Small-cap quantitative research - Growth style screen revamp and 10 focus stocks
We have reviewed the performance of our consistent growth screen since the previous refresh on 27 September 2016 and revamped the selection parameters to focus more on forecast sales and EPS growth going forward. In the period under review the consistent growth style screen outperformed the small-cap benchmark by c. 6% and underperformed the microcap index by a similar amount. Interestingly, although growth doesn't always seem to be defensive as might be expected, however it appears right to buy growth on dips caused by or coincident with wider market volatility. In the new forecast growth screen we take a close look at 10 focus stocks. We will monitor performance and refresh it in three to four months time.

GlaxoSmithKline, Positive Start To The Year
GlaxoSmithKline PLC (GSK) has reported its Q1-17 results, which indicate a positive start to the year. All three of GSK's businesses delivered underlying revenue growth (Pharma +4%, Vaccines +16%, Consumer Healthcare 2%) which helped drive the Group underlying EBIT margin ahead by some 100 bps, with Free cash flow turning positive by some £900m Y/Y. Q2-17 is likely to be slightly weaker however, due to the phasing of marketing spend and higher prior year comparatives, but the new CEO, Emma Walmsley, stated that GSK was focusing sharply on near term business performance and optimising the three-business structure of GSK in terms of delivering greater cash flow certainty and growth.

Following this afternoon's announcement that one of BlackBerry's (BBRY) long-time institutional holders, Fairfax Financial Holdings, will lead a consortium to take the company private, at $9 per share, there was some initial skepticism about competing bids, and even about Fairfax's ability to raise financing for the $4.7 billion price tag.
BlackBerry shares closed up 10 cents, or 1%, at $8.82, below the $9 offer price.
According to report by CNBC's David Faber a short while ago, Fairfax, which has a 10% stake in BlackBerry, does not yet have the financing put together. The letter of intent submitted by Fairfax and partners, Faber said, "includes a 'go shop' period, which would allow BlackBerry to solicit and evaluate other bids."
Citigroup's Jim Suva, reiterating a Sell rating on the stock, and a $7 price target, this evening writes there is risk to Fairfax completing the necessary financing:
With the company's cash balance at $2.5 bln (as per their press release on Friday but unclear how much is domestic and tax impact from repatriating cash to shareholders) or $4.77/share, the transaction values the company at $2.2 bln net of cash. We do note that given the company's cash burn of $500 million in the August 2013 quarter and layoffs which will result in additional severance payments, there is risk to the cash balance. We also note that despite Fairfax's 10% ownership stake in the company, this deal requires debt financing. Details of additional members in the consortium, their potential equity stake and deals of the debt financing are not available currently. We believe obtaining financing for BBRY given the severity of its business fundamentals deterioration poses a real risk in this transaction. We believe Fairfax is hoping to spur additional bidders which we see as unlikely.
Also this afternoon, Wells Fargo's Maynard Um, who has a Market Perform rating on the shares, and an $8 to $9 "valuation range," writes that " We believe that another bidder may be unlikely given the recent performance of the company and any potential suitors will have to navigate through a multiyear restructuring plan (the breakup fee also raises the hurdle)."

Linuxcare Europe finally closes door and I get to work to try and make sure that all my former colleagues are able to secure paying work as soon as possible. Confusion and panic reigns supreme and the usual gutter level IT journalists creep out of the woodwork.
Spoke to some of my former colleagues at LC in 650 Townsend and they are relaxed and happy at the changes which is good. Shame that taking VC means you have to take their guys with the cash, this could have been avoided.
Would hate to see LC die, there is a place in the market for them and they still have good people there who compliment and support the OpenSource model.
No time today to make GLLUG meeting in London thanks to crap British Rail and just too much work on plate. HantsLUG meeting tomorrow also looks unlikely although I'll sit up all night burning piles of CDs for them and getting their OSDN packs ready.

Wareham and Phillips are both undeniably attractive, in an effortless way — all black clothes and tousled hair. Both admit to feeling a palpable connection from the onset: "I immediately had a good music relationship with Britta," says Wareham. But the relationship wasn't a romantic one, initially — Wareham was married when the two first met.
Phillips was cautious anyway. She had been burned by the relationship-in-band situation before, when she and her former husband were American ex-pats and bandmates in a London-based shoe-gazer band called Belltower, in the '90s. "I was young and crazy," she says, "and there was a lot of ego and insecurity involved."
Phillips called it quits on both the band and her marriage after seven years, and the experience left her at a low point in the existential crisis that is the life of a musician. Joining Luna, she says, renewed her affair with music. "He's been my ultimate muse," says Phillips. "That'll sound so romantic and mushy."
A few years after Phillips got involved with Luna, she and Wareham — the latter then divorced and working on a solo album of covers — began to recognize the gravity of both their musical and personal connections. Two full-length albums later, Phillips and Wareham are now married and making music — orchestral, haunting, brooding, sexy music — together, as Dean and Britta.
"It's made my life feel more unified," says Wareham. "A lot of guys have one life on tour, and another life at home," he adds, perhaps hinting at his infidelities during the years he toured with Luna, which he wrote about in Black Postcards. Now, he and Phillips e-mail song ideas to one another from opposite sides of their apartment, and are in the midst of a US and Canadian tour with Mercury Rev.
So what makes this band work for Phillips, as opposed to the seven years she spent with Belltower?
"There are so many variables, it's hard to know what will work," she says. A possibility: "It makes me feel more secure to work with someone whose taste I really respect. When you have mutual respect, and you trust the other person's opinion, that's a great place to be." Of course, says Phillips, there's no definite recipe for couple-to-band success. "If you have a great relationship, it doesn't necessarily mean you'll create good music. It could be total crap."
Matt and KimWe have never written a love song, and will never write a love song. It's just too cheesy. You don't want to go there.
This is the unofficial band rule Matt Johnson, one half of the Brooklyn manic-dance-punk duo Matt and Kim (who'll play the House of Blues in Boston in March), offers on the phone from the road in Wisconsin, where he and Kim Schifino (a/k/a the "Kim" half of the band — duh) are driving between gigs in Dekalb, Illinois, and Minneapolis. Occasionally, Johnson and Schifino's robot-voiced GPS pipes in in the background, reminding them where to go in this unfamiliar territory. Which leads Johnson to speak another truth he's discovered in the past four years of band coupledom:

Case Mod
For the past week or so I have been working on a case mod for my mythtv box. Basicly it is a $45 SHAW case from MSY. I have mounted the 5.1 amp in the front of the case. This required cutting the sides and lid of the box to create the stepped lid. I then altered the front panel by cutting part of it away and mounting it lower down (and 180deg around). All the cutting was done with an Ozito high speed rotary tool (aka Dremel)
It also has a customised disk mount section in the front. The final case has integrated IR receiver and IT transmitter and wireless mouse receiver.
I have also installed a Coolermaster Hyper TX cpu cooler which is working very well and I have cut some extra holes in the power supply so the cpu cooler blows directly into the power supply. I still need to find a better fan for the power supply.
I still need to build something to house the IR transmitter but plans are underway. I just need to wait for some things to finish recording.
Once I installed everything and had the machine running, I decided the hard disk was getting too hot tucked away under the cdrom. I built another mounting bracket to go on the right hand side and have mounted a 5V fan blowing onto the disk. This is working well.
Once I complete the project I'll try taking a better photo and post that.

The Miami Dolphins, who've been dealing w o-line trouble, have traded with the Ravens for Bryant McKinnie according to Ravens sources
Is Ireland really this stupid? Seriously. Is he intentionally trying to run the Dolphins into the ground??!! WHat did he do, look at video of McKinnie from 8 years ago and say "he looks good, we should trade for him". Ireland obviously must not realize that McKinnie has been total garbage this year.
Desperate move, hope it works out.
Furthermore I doubt that sitting on the bench has been kind to his fitness, and it's not like Jim Turner has proved he can work miracles with a similar player in John Jerry.
Best trade in a decade!!!!!
Looks like he was working hard this weekend!
how to do a screenshot on a pc
So, who did Ireland cut to make room for him, Mike Pouncey?
tyson clabo has been playing the worst tackle i have ever seen in my life, at least in pass protection. im sure this a late round pick, i dont care how fat and lazy mckinnie is, no doubt in my mind he is better than either of our horse **** tackles (even unmotivated).

Black Phantoms, Flames and more.
Hey! As promised, here's an issue that's puzzling to me. A few days ago I added 7 Flame tetras to my 20. (also have a small Pleco, and 3 Ghost Shrimp in the tank.) They brightened up beautifully in a few hours and look just great. The PH is WAY alkaline, (I treated for ick the previous week with fizzy tablets, more about that later.) My understanding is that the females have black tips on the pectoral fins, the males don't. It appears that I have 5 females and 2 males. In less than 24 hrs, the biggest and brightest (color) female staked out her territory, basically the right rear quadrant, (middle of the tank to the right wall, and 1/2 way to the front) and ferociously defends it. The 2nd (female) claimed from the center to the left 1//4 mark, the 3rd in line the left 1/4 to the left wall. They each have their borders, and trespassers are dealt with immediately. (the shrimps and Pleco go unnoticed) The other 2 females are slightly smaller, so are the 2 males, these 4 are relegated to the front left 1/4 of the tank. The females (especially Queeny) wiggle and dance in front of the males, entice them into their territory, and basically almost rape 'em. The males kinda seem too young to understand what's going on. Is it the males with black tips? or is this some kind of gender reversal, possibly due to the imbalance in numbers? I mentioned PH because everything I read says these fish like 7.0 or lower. I don't know what my PH is, but looks like 7.6 or higher. There seems to be some kind of aphrodisiac quality to this water. Any thoughts are appreciated. Thanks.

Sorry Guys, The PC Enthusiast Industry is Dead
Kristopher Kubicki
November 30, 2007 3:03 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
An introspective, completely unsubstantiated view of the technology enthusiast, in late 2007
More than a few times someone asked me why does
all that global warming stuff
, or
defense tech
, or
automotive breakthroughs
. There's a good answer to that, but its not a simple one.
In 2004 I already saw the writing on the wall. PC technology started commoditizing, and at a brisk clip as well.
When I got my first K6 processor, it was not just the overclockers that cranked up that 66 MHz front-side bus. Anyone who bought a computer had to know some of the essential differences between MMX and 3D-Now!. A lack of knowledge, in those days, would set the up and coming computer user back hundreds of dollars if he wasn't careful.
Whether you agree with Karl Marx or Karl Rove (or anyone in between), a telltale sign of commodification occurs when the manufacturer stops focusing on tangible aspects of the product and starts pushing less tangible selling points. This often occurs when competing products are too similar, or at least indistinguishable from the purchasers point of view.
Where have we seen this before? Well, my HTC Hermes did everything the iPhone did a year beforehand, but
I'm pretty sure Apple sold a whole lot more iPhones
. Look at today's motherboards: any manufacturer would tell you its all-solid capacitors are better than the next guy. And don't even get me started on the memory industry ...
I remember the exact instant when computer hardware became a commodity. Steve Jobs got up in front of one hundred journalists and in less than 60 seconds, a million Apple zealots went from ardent Intel naysayers to hardened Intel devotees. In that moment I realized it didn't really much matter to anyone which CPU was better than another, it only mattered what Steve Jobs told everyone to think anyway.
Other signs of the death of the PC enthusiast are littered across the Internet like the tattered remains of a kite breaking up on rentry. The birth and
demise of AMD's Quadfather
, the ubiquitous lack of support (or interest) for quad-GPU graphics, failed physics processors and inconsequential sales of "killer" network cards.
In a recent conversation with
Jon Stokes
, both of us agreed that while PC tech has seen some great growth over the last few years, this growth is not keeping pace with the Internet as a whole. PC technology, as a journalistic discipline, is unfortunately niched to the degree you'd find with muscle cars.
This leads me to answer the question I started out with: the PC industry, as a whole, just isn't as fast-moving or interesting anymore. Attempting to debate the merits of largely intangible technology topics is a discussion more akin to politics than science.
You bet I'm excited about CPU-GPU integration and new OLED technology, but another unfathomably high frequency bump in the sea of JEDEC memory timings completely fails to pique my interest. Analysis of Google Keywords would indicate those more mundane markers of progress in the PC industry fail to grasp even the smallest of demographics on the Internet as well.
That does not discount the importance of the tech enthusiast. Those of us who grew up debating the merits of CPU architecture in the 1990's are the pioneers in virtual discussion. We are what the majority of consumers will become over the next decade when new, broader forums come to be.
Don't worry, I'm still the first person in Taiwan with Intel's next-generation roadmap. However, as this industry withers and new ones blossom, I encourage you all as pioneers and enthusiasts to look beyond the chips and bits once in a while.

Weekend before last, as has become customary in our house, we did a little run-up to Thanksgiving.
We always wait for the first turkeys to go on sale before we do this trial meal, and as soon as they did, we began planning a menu.
Charlie would, of course, cook the turkey because he does a much better job of it than I. And in the past couple of years he has mastered homemade yeast rolls, so he was in charge of that, too.
I was tasked with making the dressing and coming up with a new vegetable side dish. I got online and looked through some magazines before I decided on a dish from "The All-New Ultimate Southern Living Cookbook."
This green bean dish was really easy to make. I cooked the green beans early and stuck them in the fridge. While the dressing cooked, I caramelized the onions and then tossed the green beans in at the end to warm them through.
The meal was rounded out by canned cranberry sauce (fresh cranberries weren't in the stores yet, but they are now) and an apple pie from Mrs. Smith.
The green beans were really tasty and I had even planned to make them for the "real" turkey day on Nov. 22, but now daughter Mary has decided she wants me to make a creamed spinach dish that she often enjoys at the Tri Delta house at Ole Miss.
So, it's back to the cookbooks …
Green Beans with Caramelized Onion
2 pounds fresh green beans
2 large sweet onions
3 tablespoons butter, divided
3 tablespoons light brown sugar
11⁄2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
Trim beans and cook in boiling water 12 to 15 minutes or until tender. Drain and set aside.
Cut onions in slices and cut each slice in half. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add onions; cook 8 to 10 minutes without stirring. Continue cooking, stirring often, 15 to 20 minutes or until golden. Reduce heat to medium and stir in remaining 2 tablespoons butter and the brown sugar. Add green beans and cook 5 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Add vinegar and toss to coat.
Makes 8 servings.

The 2013 edition of the State of the Region meeting, coordinated by the CREATE Foundation, begins at 9:30 a.m. today in the BancorpSouth Conference Center in downtown Tupelo.
Three issues fill the agenda: state and regional perspectives on economic development, education and legislative activity.
The public is invited to the free event, which begins with registration at 8:30 a.m. at the BancorpSouth Conference Center. The program begins at 9:30 a.m.
These are the principal speakers:
• Mississippi Speaker of the House Philip Gunn, the keynote speaker, will talk about Mississippi's future. Gunn was elected speaker in January 2012, the first Republican to hold the office in 136 years.
• Joe Max Higgins, CEO of the Golden Triangle Development Link, will focus on Columbus, Lowndes County and the Golden Triangle Area. Lowndes County was added last year as the 17th county served by the CREATE Foundation.
• Tom Burnham, interim director of the Mississippi Principal Corps, will talk about the value of leadership in education. Burnham twice served as Mississippi's state superintendent of education, as well as dean of the University of Mississippi School of Education.
Mississippi State University's College of Education and the UM School of Education have launched a new Mississippi Excellence in Teaching Program. The schools' deans, Dr. Richard Blackbourn and Dr. Ryan Niemeyer, will describe the joint effort.
The State of the Region offers important information and perspective about the changing dynamics shaping the 17 counties served by CREATE.
All are welcome at the plenary sessions, which are non-partisan and solely focused on the future of Northeast Mississippi.
The 8:30 registration hour has evolved into a major networking opportunity. Business, civic and institutional leaders from the Tennessee line to Starkville and from Oxford to Columbus will be at the meeting, plus entrepreneurs and others deeply committed to progressive prosperity in the region.
The Commission on the Future of Northeast Mississippi is a major private-sector program component of the CREATE Foundation. It was organized in 1995 with a major personal gift from the late Anna Keirsey McLean of Tupelo, a philanthropist and chairman of Journal Inc. Its board today is comprised of 54 leaders from the region.

They are about $10 difference in price. I have used tritronics products for years and have 2 dogtra bark collars. Just wonder what your feelings are pros and cons of each. Thanks in advance.
They are about $10 difference in price. I have used tritronics products for years and have 2 dogtra bark collars. Just wonder what your feelings are pros and cons of each. Thanks in advance.
I have no experience with the new TT releases, but am satisfied with my Dogtra releases. (And use the sound!)
I've never used Dogtra but have used my TT releases for the past three years and am very happy with them.
Love my TT releases but I do wish that they had a "Quack" sound like a duck like dogtra ha. other than that I love my TT!
We had a group training last summer on some great ground but only had it for the weekend. It rained all weekend, By sunday the TT units were toast the dogtra kept on working. The TT had to be sent out to be fixed. I would go with the Dogtra.
Thanks everyone for you input. I ordered my Son of a gun winger today with $300 of Proplan wt circles certificates. Been saving the circles for years. So basically paid $50 for the winger. Have to order the Dogtra electronics next.
I personally prefer Dogtra RR Deluxe remote electronics. As a hunt tester, I use the quack sound alot. I've tested both TT and RR side by side and found we got more range out of the RR.
Tim McGarry Jr
AKC Retriever Hunt Test Judge # 95104
Tritronics & Dogtra are both beneficial for dog training, I used both collars on my dogs and I was really surprised that it is very safe and effective!
Did you have to modify your son of a gun so the dogtra RR deluxe receiver would mount onto it. It looks like the pins on the dogtra are about a quarter of an inch further apart than the son of a gun slots accepting them?
I started with Dogtra products about 5 years ago. Having had 3-4 different models and having nothing but issues, I have sold them all and went to TriTronics.

Thread: CO2 causing pH issues.
CO2 causing pH issues.
After installing a new pressurized CO2 set up for the first time, as expected, the pH in my new tank dropped about a full point. I know this is a function of the CO2 dissolving in the water. I have attached a picture of my 2 tank's pH test results. My question I guess is two-part:
1. Should I just live with it at this level or add some pH increaser to balance it out? (I assume it will drop back down at some point and fluctuation is probably even worse for the fish)
2. How do I get the fish from my old tank acclimated to this change in pH without shocking them to death?
pH woes.jpg
DO NOT add anything to increase the pH. pH swings caused by CO2 typically don't harm fish given that there's sufficient dissolved oxygen in the tank. Just keep an eye on the fish and make sure they don't hang out at the top gasping for air. For now, since you're using pressurized CO2, it really shouldn't be difficult to simply adjust the output so that you're not dosing as much CO2 right now. You can slowly increase it throughout the week while keeping an eye on the fish. If it has a solenoid, put it on a timer to go off an hour or two before lights-out. If not, put an airpump on a timer to turn on at lights-out. That will prevent CO2 from building up during the night. You should also get a drop checker with 4dKH solution so that you have a better idea on the actual CO2 concentration in the tank.
There is not an electronic regulator on the set up but I can make sure to manually close the regulator at night. Was looking at getting a drop checker, the store didn't have one but I see several on amazon so I will order one there, thanks for the input.
Any clue as to how I should acclimate the fish from old tank to the new one? Worried about the initial shock, I know the level is okay once they are used to it.

On a blissful summer Friday, what could be better than tales of lobster salad, big banks and Hamptons real estate?
With today's weak jobs data as a backdrop, "culture butler" Jesse Kornbluth weaves a rather delicious tale that is billed as "a fanstasy of life among the interns at the world's most famous investment bank" in the NewYorkSocialDiary.com article email. It stars a decidedly nameless college kid who parlays a no-work summer hanging at his family's Hamptons home into a lucrative vacation peddling lobster salad for $125 per pound. This turns up a few business cards, and summer work at Goldman Sachs (GS) on some aluminum projects (the warehousing of which is the subject of scrutiny outlined by the New York Times here). The author goes on to tie in real estate owned by nervous hedge fund families in posh beach communities on Long Island's east end.
As for the other 99%, Dan Alpert, a managing partner at New York investment bank Westwood Capital, says "we have become a nation of hamburger flippers." More of his take on the new sick economy, and "the Hamburger Flipper, the Barmaid, the Temp, the Garbage Man, and the Walmart 'Associate,' " in this Century Foundation blog post and in Yahoo video on jobs and the economy.

Under-Secretary-General Valerie Amos, will chair a panel discussion on 'Saving Lives and Building Resilience: A Flexible, Innovative and Coherent Humanitarian Response'.

The Summit will also aim to raise vital funds for needs in the region. The Horn of Africa Drought appeals still need more than USD 900 million to continue responding to this crisis.

It's great to be home for Ashlie Hardway.
When she was in ninth grade at Linton Middle School in Penn Hills, she interviewed Mike Clark for a research paper on "what she wanted to be when she grew up." From that moment on, she knew she wanted to be a journalist and work at WTAE.
After graduating from West Chester University of Pennsylvania, Hardway started her career in the border cities of Laredo and El Paso, Texas, working at KGNS-TV as a weekend anchor, producer and reporter, and at KVIA-TV as a weekend anchor, senior weekend producer and reporter. She frequently covered stories about warring cartels' control for the drug trade into the United States. Her work even took her to the dangerous city of Juarez, Mexico. She is nearly fluent in Spanish.
When an opening at WTAE popped up in July 2009, she jumped at the chance, with some help from her friend Clark. She has been here since August 2009 as a reporter, and is the Westmoreland County bureau chief. She can be seen on Pittsburgh's Action News 4 every weekday at 5, 5:30 and 6 p.m.
"I know it's a cliche, but it really is a dream come true," she says. "I absolutely love being a journalist, meeting people in the area, traveling to towns I may have otherwise never visited and reporting on stories that mean something to the people who mean so much to me."
Hardway says one of her biggest regrets is that her daughter wasn't able to be born in Pittsburgh, but Olivia was well-represented in El Paso as the only baby in the hospital nursery with a Terrible Towel.
A self-described "foodie," you can usually catch Hardway picking up a treat at a local shop in whichever town she happens to be working on any given day. If you ever see her out, don't hesitate to say hello.
Email her at firstname.lastname@example.com if you have a story you would like her to look into.

Thread: Cories losing whiskers?
Mine lost theirs (my tanks has zero nitrites and frankly, that will not do it) because a section of my fine sand substrate washed away exposing gravel underneath it (exactly where the Corries would 'hang out' in the back of the tank behind a very large piece of wood.) That alone did it (less than a week before I realized the issue and fixed it.)Knowledge is fun(damental)
A 75 gal with eight Discus, fake plants, and a lot of wood also with sand substrate. Clean up crew is down to just two Sterba's Corys. Filters: continuous new water flow; canister w/UV, in-tank algae scrubber!! Finally, junked the nitrate removal unit from hell.

thanks for the responses everyone! Well, I mean having no nitrates is an honorable thing to do anyways, but I believe I am going to add one of these sections of fine sand substrate. I have some aragonite left over from my salt water tank that has not been used, it is very fine and good sand, will this be okay? My pH and my alk/hardness are fine right now. I would like to create a "pond" of sand in the tank so that the cories have a place to rummage.
How big should it be? Does anyone have any idea on the best way to introduce sand to a tank that already is filled with gravel? And lastly, how do I keep the sand from being blown away?
Adding sand to a tank that is already running is going to be messy. The only time I tried this was in my saltwater tank so the outcome may or may not be different. I checked the net and they suggested to get the sand wet first, scoop it up and get some water in it then slowly get it near the bottom to release it. I did this and the cloud was every where. My live rock was covered with a fine dusting for weeks. The glass was covered with fine dust which came off once I used my magnet cleaner.
It was a mess to say the least. If you have the time and energy, rinse the fine particles from the sand for a few days before attempting to add it.
Get a hob filter ready to introduce to clean up the fine particles. It will settle but it will take a few days and some extra work. Good luck and dont get freaked out with the cloudy water, it will settle.
On a side note, I thought aragonite would increase the hardness of ones tank water. Cories dont like hard water from what I remember being they are from South America. Not sure; just what I thought I remembered.Warning; Bulldog Pleco guarding my Sons tank now..

I was going to soak the sand, scoop off the excess, so that the sand is a wet muddy-like consistency, put it in a ziploc bag and submerge it in the tank, cut a corner off the bag and then pour slowly the mud into a corner. I'm just worried about doing water changes, but I just built a fancy water changing contraption (not that intense, but I'm pretty proud of myself) so that will help in making water changes less messy and simpler. I will try it soon, and report back!
Sounds like you have a plan. Let us know how it works.
Thanks in advance.Warning; Bulldog Pleco guarding my Sons tank now..
Please remember; every keystroke has a consequence.
R/O water is fine for your freshwater tank as long as you don't give it all R/O and do a half n' half blending. Filters that are too dirty can also raise your nitrates but anything under 20 should be just fine.
Sand needs to be rinsed, rinsed, rinsed, and then rinsed again.
If you are going to create a sandy area in an all gravel tank, you'll need a barrier to keep it from mixing. I have used those clear flexible plastic strips meant for the bottom of a door.
I believe corydoras belong in tanks with smooth, small grained sand substrate only, however I would not expect to see barbel erosion after only a week. More likely, the cories are searching for food through the substrate and are finding rotten food and decaying fish/plants and that's causing the problems. Make sure you are using a gravel vac to thoroughly clean the substrate, and do plenty of water changes to keep the nitrate down. Remember, the readings are highest at the bottom of the tank."The Dumpster Tank" 26g flat back hex - Bolivian rams, Checker barbs, Harlequin and porkchop rasbora, neon tetra, SAE, otocinclus

PL/Jenkins VFW team opens season
The Pequot Lakes/Jenkins VFW baseball team opened its season by sweeping visiting Staples-Motley by scores of 4-3 and 2-1 in a pair of 5-inning games on Tuesday, June 11.
Karl Satterlund was the winning pitcher as he went the distance in the opener, striking out seven while allowing just two hits. PL/Jenkins' Justin Olson was 2-for-3 while teammate Austin Mesenbrink scored two runs. Pequot Lakes finished with five hits.
In the second game, both teams had just one hit. Winning pitcher Chad Christenson had eight strikeouts in five innings. Mesenbrink had a single and sacrifice fly for PL/Jenkins, which erased a 1-0 deficit with two runs in the third inning. S-M's Tyler Holub had his team's only hit, and also had two stolen bases, in the second game.
Park Rapids sweeps PL/Jenkins
On Thursday, June 13, PL/Jenkins VFW squad was swept by visiting Park Rapids by scores for 11-8 in seven innings and 4-1 in five innings.
In the opener, PL/Jenkins led 2-1 after the first inning before Park Rapids tied it 2-2 in the second. Both teams scored in the third inning, but the visitors grabbed a big lead with three runs in the fourth and five more in the fifth. PL/Jenkins did rally with four runs in the bottom of the seventh, but still fell short.
"Connor Davich did a nice job pitching for us," said Pequot Lakes coach Kyle Spray. "We made some errors that really hurt in the fourth and fifth innings."
Mesenbrink was 2-for-3 while Jared Sewell had two doubles.
The second game was tied 1-1 after the first inning before Park Rapids added single runs in the second and third innings and another run in the fifth.
"We only had four hits," Spray said. "We had our chances, but couldn't get the big hit. (Park Rapids) also made some nice defensive plays."

Explore artistic influences.
Much of the imagery in Robert Indiana's paintings alludes to life in small-town America. He depicts billboards, highway signs, roadside motels, and restaurants. Like many Pop artists of the 1960s, Indiana transforms familiar words, letters, and numbers into large, vibrantly colored icons derived from the emblems of advertising and consumer culture.
Indiana made The X-5 in homage to Charles Demuth's The Figure 5 in Gold, one of his favorite paintings. Compare the two paintings. What are some similarities and differences? What elements of Demuth's painting did Indiana change or keep? Why might he have wanted to recreate Demuth's painting?

China's President Defends Business Environment
BOAO, China—You run a large multinational company, and China is one of your biggest markets. You have five minutes to grab the attention of China's new leader. What do you say?
In a variation on the elevator pitch, several dozen Chinese, Asian and Western business leaders sat down Monday with Chinese President Xi Jinping for what was billed as a roundtable discussion. In reality, it was short speeches by a handful of executives representing various regions, with a response from Mr. Xi.
More Coverage
These are treacherous times for many foreign businesses in China. Apple Inc. apologized last week after China's state-run media accused the company of offering inferior customer service. Japanese auto sales have plunged amid a consumer backlash stemming from a territorial dispute between Beijing and Tokyo over a group of uninhabited islands. The Chinese economy is slowing, wages are rising, intellectual-property theft is rampant and the U.S. business community, in particular, is alarmed by reports of hacking by the Chinese military to obtain commercial secrets.
But such topics hardly featured in the presentations delivered to Mr. Xi and observed by a select group of foreign reporters at the Boao Forum for Asia.
Fortescue Metals Group Ltd. FSUGY 2.83% Chairman Andrew Forrest, whose personal fortune is based in large part on the Australian company's iron-ore sales to China, complimented Mr. Xi on his "humility and focus on poverty" and his concern about Australian aborigines.
Mr. Forrest told the softly smiling Chinese president that part of his own global charitable mission was to help "Chinese people suffering in difficult circumstances."
"I've taken time to make Chinese people true friends, and this has been more enriching than the accumulation of capital could ever be," said Mr. Forrest, whose company is a sponsor of the Boao Forum.
Among the few dissonant comments were delivered by Zein Abdalla, the president of PepsiCo Inc., PEP 0.57% who said he spoke for the U.S. business community. Mr. Abdalla pleaded for "a more level playing field for foreign companies" and urged China "to reduce barriers to entry in various industries, including agriculture."
Koji Miyahara, the chairman of Japanese shipping company Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Kaisha , NPNYY -0.95% took a historical tack, telling Mr. Xi that Chinese revolutionary Sun Yat-sen traveled to Japan many times in the early 20th century aboard NYK Line ships. Chinese history books relentlessly refer to Japanese wartime aggression and gloss over the country's role as an early economic model for Asia, including China, and a haven for Chinese radicals.
These days, Mr. Miyahara said, Japanese companies employ 10 million workers in China. "We need to build trust and help each other," he said. He referred obliquely to anti-Japanese protests in China last year, in which Japanese cars were smashed, as "unpleasant episodes." He hopes that Mr. Xi, who has shown little inclination to ratchet down tensions with Japan, "will give us greater understanding and support," Mr. Miyahara said.
Dhanin Chearavanont, the chairman of Thai agricultural conglomerate Charoen Pokphand Group, made a plug for greater space for private enterprise in China and more lending to cash-starved small and midsize enterprises, as well as to farmers, CP's customer base.
"We are here to offer our support to build a green and sustainable China," said Olof Persson, the president of Swedish truck maker Volvo VOLVB -0.34% AB.
Mr. Xi addressed the concerns with few specifics beyond saying "we will step up" intellectual-property rights. "We are protecting the legitimate rights of foreign enterprises according to law," he said. "We will continue to enhance the legal system and improve investment environment so that all enterprises can enjoy equal access to production, market competition and legal protection."
"I will endeavor to build a more favorable environment for investors," Mr. Xi said. But to the point raised by PepsiCo's Mr. Abdalla, the president responded, "China has a level playing field."

Does anyone know what to do
Hi there,ive got 4 children all were delivered by c-section.
recently ive been trying for a boy in the last year ive had 3 misscarriages,after the last misscarriage in mid march this year i havent fallen pregnant at all,the 3 misscarriages were from low hcg levels all my other pregnancies have been normal.i was also told i have low levels of cardilipion but when i was tested again with my last baby i had the doc told me they showed up normal,so what can i do to get pregnant and keep the baby,i would love to hear from anyone with some ideas.
23rd June 2012 12:05 PM #2
I am sorry for your losses. I've experienced two miscarriages myself and I know they are so difficult. There are several articles on the forum that are related to miscarriage and may help you to get past some of your feelings and learn more about why they may be happening.
Do you mind if I ask how old you are? Also, how old is your youngest child? I am assuming you've had all three of these miscarriages in the past year. Maybe you should take some time to let your body heal. Healing from a cesarean birth can be particularly long term. Additionally, there may be some residual scar tissue making it difficult for a good implantation to occur. Doesn't mean it won't happen, but taking some time out to relax and following a fertility-friendly diet rich in folic acid may help.
Best of luck,

Natural progesterone cream can be very beneficial for women who have had children, and then have experienced multiple miscarriages due to low hCG levels. I have a dear friend that benefited tremendously from natural progesterone cream. She had 6 children, and had 6 miscarriages. She was 43 years old by that time. A friend told her about natural progesterone cream, so she started using it, and the next month she conceived (used the cream throughout the entire pregnancy) and gave birth to a full term, healthy baby, at 44 years of age.
I'd encourage you to learn more about the benefits of natural progesterone cream.
Please post back with any questions or comments you may have.

hi mom2many thanks for repling to my add im 29 years old and my youngest daughter is 16 months old.the gp who signed me out said that the c-section went real good nothing to worry about and said i am very lucky also that when he was operating he couldnt see much scare tissue for what i should have had taking in count i had 3 c-sections before hand,ive had ultarsounds that show that everything down below are normal and they cant find a reason with me being on asprin why im not falling or following through with my pregnancy
11th July 2012 12:10 PM #5
Hello Worried,
When you said that you have low levels of cardilipion, did you mean low levels of cardiolipin? I'm also curious as to what the test results were on the "low level" and what the test result was on the "normal level". Here's a page with more information: http://www.sharedjourney.com/define/aca.html
Something else that struck me is that you just mentioned that you are 29 years old, and I noticed you said you've been trying to conceive a boy for 3 months and haven't been able to conceive. Trying for a boy is much easier than trying to sway the odds of conceiving a girl, because you're making love during the highest fertile days of your cycle.
So my next question would be... are you seeing really good signs of fertility, and is your fertile mucus really stretchy (4 inches or more) when you're attempting to conceive? Are you also using an ovulation predictor tests, and if so, what are those results looking like?
The more you can share with me, the better I can help pinpoint what is happening so that you can conceive and carry a bub to term faster.
Warm regards,

hi kate,all the gp told me was the cardilipion test just touched a low positive.i have moved state so as of now im seeing a new gp which is a shame because she really doesnt know my past pregnancies or any results,she did say though that if i take a baby asprin each day for the first 3 months that should thin my blood and help me carry a baby,also to take it everyday even if im not pregnant,i got abit concerned and contacted my old gp yesterday he told me they tested me for cardilipion again while i was pregnant with my last daughter and it then had a negative result he said it could have been it showed a pos result because in the first 6 wks of being pregnant it can give a pos result so he said i might not have at all had it,i did do the fertile stretchy test when i last ovulated and it did stretch properly in between my fingers.i have never used a ovulation test ive always been able to fall pregnant really easy,its just after my last daughter that ive been having troubles,ive always misscarried very easy as they had me on high risk with every pregnancy,but since my last its like something has happened where i was conceieving than the minute i did a test 3/5 days later i would star bleeding,even taking the asprin

- Description
This a view looking south along the northern coast Chile approximately 80km south of Arica. This area was inhabited by the Chinchorro approximately 7,000 years ago. They utilized the reeds growing at the mouth of the river for weaving mats and incorporating into their mortuary process. The alluvium rich coastline to the left of the sea cave contains abundant evidence for occupation; reed mats, broken shells, and numerous types of bones.

Folks over at the USGBC certainly were smiling heading into 2014, thanks to a last-minute gift from President Barack Obama. As reported over at Green Building Law Update and on USGBC's blog, in late December, President Obama signed the National Defense Authorization Act for the 2014 fiscal year. The good news? Among other things, it removed a two-year prohibition on spending for LEED Gold and Platinum certifications for U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) properties. This move wraps up a year that saw major victories for the use of LEED in federal projects, with a renewal of support from the U.S. General Services Administration (albeit with the addition of Green Globes as an alternative pathway to green building certification) and an early 2013 report from the National Research Council advocating for the DoD's continued use of LEED for its new buildings and major renovations.
Congress restricted DoD spending on LEED certifications in Dec. 2011 by passing a version of the Act that explicitly prohibited spending on Gold and Platinum certifications. However, building to LEED Silver or equivalent ratings continued to be required by the DoD.
The Gold and Platinum spending restriction was carried through to the 2013 fiscal year, although exceptions were allowed if the two highest certifications in the LEED program could be reached at no additional cost to the DoD. This new all-clear for all levels of LEED certification, however, could have big implications given the DoD's massive footprint and the hundreds of billions allocated for FY 2014 spending on defense-related spending. One question that remains is whether the DoD will choose to pay for higher levels of certification, now that it is allowed to do so.

Executive Committee Officers have an extensive list of responsibilities, including serving as liaisons to each of the IS committees and task forces.
Committee appointments are handled by the Vice-Chair/Chair-Elect. Each year IS members may volunteer by February 15 for a standing committee appointment; appointments are made in the spring; and terms begin after the ALA Annual Conference. The Appointment Cycle Reports detail the demographics of current IS committee members.
IS members can submit nominations for IS Officers at any point during the year.
