Balanced Attack Leads Phoenix to Quarterfinal Win, 72-55
By Rachel Buck (@GBRachel)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) – In a balanced attack by the Green Bay offense, the Phoenix advanced to the semifinals of the Horizon League Women's Basketball Tournament as it ran past Valparaiso, 72-55, in Wednesday's quarterfinal game at the Kress Events Center.
All 12 Phoenix played in the game with 10 denting the scoring column, including four in double digits and 33 points from its reserves. It marked the eighth time this season Green Bay had 10 or more players score, as it moved its overall record to 21-8 on the season.
Junior Megan Lukan (Barrie, Ontario) led the way with 12 points, freshman Mehryn Kraker (West Allis, Wis.) added 11 while sophomore Ellen Edison (Maple Grove, Minn.) and Mariah Monke (Fergus Falls, Minn.) chipped in 10 points apiece off the bench.
The Phoenix took an early 3-2 lead three minutes into the contest, but three consecutive baskets from deep by Valparaiso's Jessica Carr gave the visitors an 11-3 lead at the 14:15 mark. Kraker stopped the run with a feed in the lane, but the Crusaders maintained a seven-point lead (14-7) with just under 10 minutes remaining in the first half.
That's when the Phoenix went on an 11-0 run over three minutes to grab back the lead, 18-14, with 6:42 on the clock. Green Bay stepped up play in the paint and received a lift from its bench players with Monke and Sam Terry (Baraboo, Wis.) combining for all 11 points, including eight by Monke. She started the run with an and-1 play before Terry completed the same play on the next Phoenix trip down the court. After a pair of missed shots for both teams, Monke scored on another layup and then forced a Valparaiso turnover on the other end before transitioning to finish another and-1 play to close the run.
Green Bay grew its lead to as many as ten points (31-21) with 1:39 remaining, but the Crusaders closed on a quick 5-2 run to cut the Phoenix lead to seven points (33-26) at the break. The Phoenix was able to overcome a slow shooting start to the game as it opened just 4-for-17 before finishing 9-for-12.
Valparaiso cut the Phoenix lead to five points, 35-30, three minutes into the second half but a big 14-0 run over 6:20 put the game away for Green Bay. Five different Phoenix scored during the run, kicked off by back-to-back threes from junior Megan Lukan (Barrie, Ontario) and Kraker. Edison then connected on consecutive jumpers before Megan Lukan hit a pair of free throws before Monke concluded the run with another layup in the paint to put the lead at 49-30.
The lead never got below 15 points the rest of the way as the Phoenix coasted to the 72-55 win.
Green Bay dominated play in the paint, outscoring the visitors 38-8 in the category while also receiving a 33-8 advantage from its reserves and a 28-11 edge in points off turnovers.
The Phoenix finished the game shooting 45.8 percent (27-59) from the field. Valpo was 38.0 percent from the field (19-50) and 44.8 percent from deep (13-29) fueled by a game-high 18 points by Carr, who finished 6-for-11 from long range.
Senior Breannah Ranger (Skokie, Ill.) contributed a game-best seven rebounds, while Megan Lukan totaled a game-high five assists and three steals in addition to her team-leading 12 points.
Green Bay will continue to serve as hosts for the Horizon League Tournament, next facing No. 4 UIC on Friday evening in the second semifinal at 7:30 p.m. UIC advanced with a 77-72 win over No. 5 Cleveland State this evening. Semifinal one will feature No. 2 Wright State and No. 3 Youngstown State with tip set for 5 p.m.

Yes, everything in Sesame Street has a face. So why is he Cthulhu? It's a hodgepodge of hastily slapped together elements that have been popular on woot in the past, with the cookie's face thrown in to make it on theme. Yes, the illustration in and of itself is good, but I can't say I'm a fan of this design.

I think you are missing the point, though. That part of Cthulhu and the Earth being what they are is "fine"(though arguably overdone and the reference just seems forced in there); rather, and the reason it should be rejected, is that, as mentioned by many others previously, the cookie is not "anthropomorphic" and thus, this shirt is off-topic.

Discussion in 'Pistons and NBA' started by roscoe36, Jul 1, 2010.
Or Darko for $5M?
Gooden is deservant of this payday, he really has played some nice ball these last few years.
First Impression So Far: Those are some really big numbers being thrown about. Too big in most cases. It will be interesting to watch both our former Pistons, Darko and Amir. Darko, all jokes aside, is incredibly talented - it's his heart and desire that have been lacking. The Wolves really like him, and truthfully, he played really well for them. His issue is whether he'll be consistent. History says no way, but he is still a really young player. If he breaksthrough with his consistency and develops a mean streak, the Pistons could still someday look wistfully at him from afar. On the other hand - I'll believe it when I see it. Amir is also still really young. If Greg Monroe works out, Amir would have been a very nice fit on our team - receiving passes as he dives into the lane. Amir's got great hands, and the ability to convert inside the paint. And I still love his size and super athleticism - he can be a terror on the boards and in defending the paint. But 6.8 million per year? Highly questionable that he's worth that.
None of the above.

I'm looking at this unique cap situation in Miami, and how they're trying to go for the 3 max players, while I'm not as smart as Pat Riley, I think they're doing this ALL WRONG!! Why not get 1 max player (Wade), 1 kind of max player (Boozer, Lee, maybe Dirk), and then go after 3 MLE players who are undervalued, guys like Ridnour, Outlaw, Josh Howard, Haywood, etc etc etc....I just think that 3 max players is a set up for disaster especially when there is actually only one player on the market who has PROVEN that he's worth MAX dollars..WADE.

This just makes me sick that the chances of Phil's quadruple three-peat chances just got better. The Lakers were able to get to the finals three years in a row with an old fake PG in Fisher and now they have a legitimate one.....why do the rich get richer. Wonder if Will Bynum's agent contacted Kupchak or vis a versa. Will could have went to a non-pretender to the ultimate [strike]contender[/strike] defending champ.

One of the most respected figures in intercollegiate athletics, Gene Bartow forged the UAB Athletics program into a well-rounded organization with outstanding teams in several sports. Bartow, considered the Father of UAB Athletics, grew the intercollegiate sports program there from its infancy into one that featured 17 sports and an annual operating budget of more than $8 million by the time he retired from the position in 2000.
Among his achievements were guiding the program through three conference changes, growing the football team from a club sport into an FBS (Division I-A) program and adding several women's sports to the university's athletics roster.
Bartow was at the helm of the UAB Men's Basketball program for 18 seasons, compiling a record of 366-203 (.643) during his tenure. He led the Blazers to the NIT in the program's second year of existence and followed that up with seven straight NCAA Tournament appearances, including trips to the Sweet 16 in 1981 and the Elite Eight in 1982. In all, he led UAB to 14 postseason appearances, nine of which were NCAA Tournaments.
In addition to his time at UAB, Bartow is one of the top college basketball coaches of all time. By the time he retired from collegiate coaching in 1996, he had led teams for 34 years at six universities (Central Missouri State, Valparaiso, Memphis State, Illinois, UCLA and UAB), compiling 647 wins, 15 NCAA Tournament appearances and two Final Four appearances.He hadone national title game appearance and received the national coach of the year award (both with Memphis State in 1973). Bartow was known for operating clean programs free from NCAA probation.
In 2009, Bartow received the ultimate honor as he was inducted into the National College Basketball Hall of Fame. He entered the Alabama Sports Hall of Fame in 1989 and is also a member of both the Missouri Basketball Hall of Fame and the Northeast Missouri Athletic Hall of Fame.
The Browning, Mo., native coached 34 years at six universities. He coached at Central Missouri State University from 1961-64, Valparaiso University from 1964-1970, Memphis State University from 1970-74, and he led the Tigers to the 1973 NCAA National Championship Game and consecutive Missouri Valley Conference titles in the 1971-72 and 1972-73 seasons. In 1974, Bartow accepted the head coaching position at the University of Illinois. Illinois finished 8-18 in his only season coaching the Fighting Illini, and Bartow left his position to succeed John Wooden as the head coach of the UCLA Bruins. Bartow coached at UCLA from 1975 to 1977, guiding them to a 52-9 record, including a berth in the 1976 Final Four. Bartow left UCLA after the 1977 season to begin the job of creating an athletic program at UAB.
Bartow retired from coaching in 1996. A year later, UAB renamed its basketball venue, Bartow Arena, in his honor. The Birmingham News voted him one of the top 10 most influential figures in Alabama sports for the past century.
Bartow was married to the former Ruth Huffine and had three children, Mark, Beth and Murry, who is the head men's basketball coach at East Tennessee State.
Gene Bartow passed away on January 3, 2012, at the age of 81 after battling stomach cancer for two and a half years.

In the 'old days' of genealogy progress from one generation to the next was a slow business. Letters were written and daily hopes of a reply were dashed until finally a reply was received which either told you that nothing had been found or something had been found in a dusty old register, but it produced one answer along with five further questions. A day spent at a record office or Somerset House was dreamed of and planned weeks sometimes months in advance and was the highlight of the genealogist's year.
How things have changed, now most of us sit at home, log onto Ancestry.co.uk or some such website and away we go. Ancestral information tumbles out of our printers, stores itself onto our hard drives and collates itself onto our family trees. Regular additions to the websites databases satisfies our hunger for more, but not for long. Give us the 1901 census and we want the 1911, give us the 1911 and we want the 1939 registration information. We want more and what's more we want it NOW!
However having more and having it now isn't always a good thing, How many of us have acquired screeds of printouts, discs of information and family trees of names, but not actually put the whole things together to tell the story of our ancestors? The reasons for doing genealogy are as varied as the people who indulge in it, but a common thread that runs through the reasons is that we want to find out the story of our ancestors. Who were they, what did they do, why did they do it and what was going on around them whilst they did whatever they were doing!
To achieve this the family historian has to take the time to look at what she/he has and to appraise, confirm and consolidate everything that she/he knows about that particular ancestor. So this year I have resolved to spend as much time consolidating my research as I spend on chasing more information and more ancestors. I shall work family by family and check that my information has been sourced, that my notes make sense, that all the different bits of information are pulled together and that the links from one generation to another are solid. I want to hand onto my descendants a family history that they are proud of and not one that is so shambolic that it gets consigned to the bonfire.
What about you, are you handing on to your children files and boxes of disconnected information or a genealogy that will stand the test of time?

Model Coupling Options
[By: Kate Hedstrom]
As someone who does ocean and sea ice modeling, I know that one often wants to couple the two models together. Like many things, there's more than one way to do it.
The code I'm most familiar with has a very tight coupling between the ocean and ice models. In fact, you could say the ice model is now part of the ocean model, since they use the same grid and time step, and the ice is simply a collection of subroutines within the ocean model.
This choice works very well - until someone goes and finds a better ice model. It also works in this case because using the same grid and time step isn't a terrible idea, but there can be situations where the time and space scales in your models don't naturally match, like say a glacier and the atmosphere. Maybe a glacier can have a time step of once per day or even longer while the natural timescales in the atmosphere are much shorter.
Dan Schaffer at NOAA once sent me a talk he'd given on model coupling choices. He points out that many choices are orthogonal and can be made independently. One of the choices is synchronous versus sequential: does the ocean run on one pool of processors at the same them the ice runs on another pool? Or do both use all the processors and take turns?
The National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) has a community climate model (CCSM). Its structure is that of a coupler communicating with all the other components - land, ice, air, and ocean. Each component can be computed or read from disk for testing the individual components separately. In this case, the current version run synchronously, with the coupler knowing at startup time how many processors to give to each component. There is an effort to create a sequential version for use on IBM's Blue Gene system, in which each process has to be doing the same thing as all the rest.
There are a number of tools out there to help when coupling various geophysical models. I can't show you code, but I can give the URL's. CCSM now uses the Model Coupling Toolkit (MCT) from Argonne Labs, as does the Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS) when used with a wave model (SWAN). ROMS uses a variant written to look like WRF I/O calls, where WRF is the Weather & Research Forecasting Model.
NASA has a multimillion dollar effort underway to develop a newer (better?) coupler called the Earth System Modeling Framework (ESMF).
And finally, you might take a look at the European PRogram for Integrated Earth System Modeling (PRISM).
Advanced VIM
[By: Tom Baring]
Once you master vim, you can edit without touching a "mouse" and there's not a motion wasted.
This is not a complete list of advanced vim techniques, but it's a good start. If you don't already know vi or vim, this list, while not exhaustive, will definitely be exhaustING, and you should probably just skip the entire article.
VIM TIP #1: "Cursor movement perfection"Challenge yourself to drop the cursor exactly where you want it with the fewest keystrokes.
precede any cursor movement command with a number, and it will repeat that many times (E.g.: 8W hops ahead 8 Words.)
f and F (find) and / and ? (regular expression search) are cursor movement commands. (E.g.: 8/vim<RET> hops ahead 8 occurrences of "vim".)
mA and 'A set a mark and jump back to it, where "A" is any letter. (E.g., mm sets the mark "m". To come back later, hit 'm . Syntax note: the ' in 'm indicates a literal single-quote.)
show line numbers ( :se nu ) and use them to move around. (Do you want to be on line 876? Just type 876G .)
VIM TIP #2: "Combine cursor movement with change/delete/pipe operations"Once you master cursor movement, combine it with certain operations to increase your editing efficiency.
d followed by any cursor movement command deletes the block of text defined by the current cursor position to where ever it would go--even if the movement would be backward. (E.g., d'm deletes everything to the mark, "m".)
c (change) lets you change everything to where ever the cursor would go. It effectively deletes the block of text and puts you in insert-mode at the same time. (E.g., c2f>. changes everything to the second > on the current line.)
! followed by a cursor movement command, and a Unix filter, pipes the block into the filter as STDIN, and replaces the block with STDOUT from the filter. (E.g.: !876Gsort<RET> sorts all lines from the current line to line 876.)
VIM TIP #3: "Use regular expressions"
Learn and use regular expression search and search/replace.
Some of the perl, awk, python, or other scripts you might write to perform batch edits can probably be eliminated. Perform them right in the editor, in ex-mode ( : ).
Vim regex's can do non-greedy matching, alternation, grouping, and replacement strings can include backrefernces. Unfortunately, most of the operators have to be escaped with a backslash.
For example, here's a command to swap the first two words on every line between 1000 and 2000:
:1000,2000s/\([^ ]*\) \([^ ]*\)\(.*\)/\2 \1\3/
Since complicated expressions are nearly impossible to type correctly without editing, don't even try to type them directly on the ex ( : ) prompt. Instead, edit them in the document, yank into a register, and execute as described below, under TIP #4. (Don't forget to remove them from the document afterwards!)Here's a nice tutorial on vim regular expressions:
VIM TIP #4: "Let VIM handle repetitive tasks"
Master the MANY ways to repeat what you've done before. VIM understands that editing tasks are often repetitive. It captures what you do, so you can do it again with minimal thinking, typing, or "mousing" around:
. repeats the last edit-mode command (insertion, change, deletion) (E.g., dd...j... deletes this line and the next three lines, skips a line and deletes three more. cfgANG<ESC>/ing.n.n.n.n. changes everthing up to the next "g" to "ANG", and then searches for the next five occurrences of "ing", and changes them all to "ANG".)
; and , repeat the last f (forward or backward)
n and N repeat the last regular expression search (forward or backward)
@ treats the text stored in a register as a command, and executes it
@ and q qA (where 'A' is any alphanum) starts recording whatever you do into register A. Hitting q again stops recording. To repeat the entire sequence, execute the register with @A . (See example, below.)
@ and yy "Ayy yanks the current line into register A where you can execute it with @A . So, you can type a complicated search/replace command in the text of your file, yank it, execute it, undo the result if it wasn't correct, and keep editing it until it works perfectly. (Syntax note: the " in "Ayy indicates a literal double-quote.)
@@ executes the last executed register, again.
precede any of the above with a number, to perform the repeat that many times. (E.g., 5; jumps to the fifth occurance of whatever you most recently found with f . 2007@@ executes the most recently executed register again, 2007 times.)
vim maps, search/replace, register execution, and custom perl scripts are all alternatives for repetitive operations.
There are good times to prefer executed recordings. For instance:
- when you need to make a context-based decision about each possible execution
- when you can create the sequence of steps while mucking around in the file, but just can't visualize the steps well enough to create the map or script.
For instance, say you're editing HTML, and decide to replace most (but not all) of the h2 headers with h4. You want to:
- search for the next opening h2 tag
- look at it, and decide whether or not to replace it
- if you decide to replace it, replace both the opening and closing tags
To do this, start a recording (to register "a" in this example), and then perform the steps, right in the file, and stop the recording:
qa/<h2 f2r4/<\/h2> f2r4/<h2 q
Oops! A mistake. We don't need to search twice. Let's skip the first search, but keep the last. Rerecord register "a" with this better idea:
qaf2r4/<\/h2 f2r4/<h2 q
Now we can scan the rest of the file quickly:
- find the first opening h2 header with, /h2<RET>
- if it needs to be replaced, execute register "a" with @a
this takes us to the next h2 header. Look at it, and:
- if it needs to be replaced: execute register "a" again with @@
- if it doesn't need to be replaced: hit n to hop to the next h2 header
Scan and process the rest of the file with a combination of @@ and n .
VIM or VI? With the exception of recordings, all of the above vim techniques work in standard vi, but there's no reason to use vi, as vim is available on all ARSC systems.
Quick-Tip Q & A
A:[[ i have a whole bunch of files with uppercase letters in the names. [[ unfortunately, i do not care for uppercase letters. could you please [[ tell me how to rename the files in an automated fashion such that [[ there are no uppercase letters in my filenames? ## ## Thanks to all eight (!) respondents... proving again that Great ## Minds don't always think alike. ## # # Thanks to Ashwin Ramasubramaniam # ls -l * awk '{printf("mv %s %s\n",$9,tolower($9)) "/bin/sh"}' # # From Bill Homer # To rename each ordinary file in the current directory with at least one upper case letter in its name, so that all upper case letters are converted to lower case, unless a file with the proposed new name already exists: perl -e 'foreach $f (glob("*[A-Z]*")) { rename($f,lc($f)) if -f $f and not -e lc($f); }' ksh -c 'for i in *[A-Z]*; do typeset -l j=$i; [[ -f $i ]] && [[ ! -e $j ]] && mv $i $j; done' # # Kurt Carlson # ls *[A-Z]* awk '{ lo=tolower($1); print $1,lo; }' while read UP LO; do if [ ! -e $LO ]; then mv $UP $LO; fi; done The 'if' clause is only there to prevent clobbering a file which already exists with the lowercase name. Issue the 'ls *[A-Z]*' when your done to see if something did not get renamed for that reason. If you don't really care: ls *[A-Z]* awk '{ cmd="mv " $1 " " tolower($1); system(cmd); }' You can detect in awk if the file exists, too, but that requires more syntax than I can pop off top-of-head without my first cup of coffee. For anything like this, I tend to initially include an echo before the mv to ensure I haven't made an unfortunate typo (especially before that first cup of coffee). # # Greg Newby # The "tr" command is made just for mapping one letter onto another. To rename all files (and subdirectories) in the current directory, try one of these: sh/ksh syntax: for i in * ; do echo renaming $i to `echo $i tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]'` mv $i `echo $i tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]'` done csh/tcsh syntax: foreach i (*) echo renaming $i to `echo $i tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]'` mv $i `echo $i tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]'` end This isn't smart enough to skip over files that don't have any upper case letters, but such a test would be nearly as intensive as just trying the rename anyway. On some systems, "mv" might complain about renaming a file to itself. # # Brad Havel # Perl to the rescue... ----- [=> perl -e "opendir(DIRECTORY,'.'); @directory=readdir(DIRECTORY); \ > closedir(DIRECTORY); foreach \$file (@directory) { \ > (\$newname = \$file) =~tr /A-Z/a-z/; \ > rename(\"\$file\",\"\$newname\"); }" ----- Or the same thing nicely written out for a script rather than a continuous command line: ----- #!/usr/bin/perl opendir(DIRECTORY,"."); @directory=readdir(DIRECTORY); closedir(DIRECTORY); foreach $file (@directory) { ($newname = $file) =~tr /A-Z/a-z/; rename("$file","$newname"); } # # Jed Brown # With the perl distribution, there is a `rename' (sometimes called `prename') which is my favorite for complicated renaming. The `-n' option shows what would happen. $ rename '$_=lc' *.out # # Orion Lawlor # Rename files to lowercase names is one of my standard scripts: #!/bin/sh # Usage: rename_lowercase <files...> # Renames files with UpperCase names to all-lowercase. # for src in "$@" do dest=`echo "$src" tr 'A-Z' 'a-z'` if [ "$src" != "$dest" ] then echo " $src -> $dest " mv -i "$src" "$dest" exit 1 fi done # # Alec Bennett # For a list of files, or directory, you can do something similar to the following in bash: for i in $( ls ); do mv $i `echo $i tr "[:upper:]" "[:lower:]"`; done This should take care of an entire directory. One thing to watch for on some Linux systems is that you may need to replace $( ls ) with $( ls --color=none ) or something similar in order to avoid the colors interfering with the commands. Q: I'm grepping for "Bachelor Bitter" (both words). However, grep doesn't find it when there's a newline separating the two words. Can grep ignore newlines, somehow? Do you have any other ideas?

Non-Contributory Plan With Guaranteed Benefits
For ERS Tier 1 Members
(Section 75-d and 75-e)
Final Average Salary (FAS)
- 1
Your pension is based on your years of credited service and your final average salary (FAS). FAS is the average of the wages you earned during any 36 consecutive months of service when your earnings were highest. This is usually the last three years of employment.
If your date of membership is June 17, 1971, or later, the wages in any 12-month period used in the FAS calculation cannot exceed the earnings in the preceding 12-month period by more than 20 percent. Any amount in excess of 20 percent is excluded from the computation of your FAS.
The calculation of your FAS can include, but is not limited to, the following types of payments. In some cases, certain restrictions may apply.
- Regular salary;
- Overtime earned in the period used in the FAS;
- Holiday pay;
- Noncompensatory overtime earned for each year in the FAS period;
- Longevity payments (maximum of three), if earned in the years used in the FAS calculation; and
- Payment for up to 30 days of accumulated unused vacation if your date of membership is before April 1, 1972, and if your FAS is based on the 36 months of earnings immediately preceding your retirement.
The following types of payments are not considered regular compensation and, in most cases, will not be included in your FAS calculation.
- Unused sick leave;
- Payments made as a result of working your vacation;
- Any form of termination pay;
- Payments made in anticipation of retirement;
- Lump sum payments for deferred compensation; and
- Any payments made for time not worked.

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. - North Carolina junior midfielder Crystal Dunn and junior forward Kealia Ohai were named first-team All-Americas Tuesday by Soccer America Magazine while Dunn captured Soccer America Player of the Year honors from the magazine, the 11th different player to do so. Altogether, UNC has won 13 Soccer America player of the year awards since it was first awarded in 1985.
2012 NCAA champion North Carolina has swept all five national player of the year awards with Dunn winning the Soccer America honor, the MAC Hermann Trophy, the Soccer News Net College Boot and Honda Sports Award for Soccer. Senior midfielder Amber Brooks won the Top Drawer Soccer accolade.
Dunn and Ohai were named first-team Soccer America MVPs, the equivalent of the magazine's All-America squads. North Carolina was the only school in the nation to have two players named to the first team.
Three Tar Heels were accorded honors on Soccer America's All-Freshman Team. Forward Summer Green and defender Hannah Gardner were named to the first team and midfielder Katie Bowen earned a spot on the second team. UNC and NCAA runner-up Penn State both had two players named to the first-team All-Freshman squad.
Dunn's golden goal gave Carolina a 2-1 win at BYU in the NCAA
quarterfinals and set up fellow Soccer America MVP Kealia Ohai for the
golden goal that gave the Tar Heels a 1-0 victory over defending champion
Stanford in the semifinals.
Dunn (Rockville Centre N.Y./South Side High School/Albertson Fury), who scored both goals for the Tar Heels in the win over BYU, missed the first part of the season to represent the U.S. at the Under-20 Women's World Cup in Japan. She finished with five goals for UNC, all in NCAA Tournament games.
Dunn, who also won the 2012 Hermann Trophy, played at right back for the USA but was moved to midfield for the Carolina run to its 22nd national championship since 1981.
Soccer America National Players of the Year From UNC

Unlike Americans, a majority of Swedes back their current system of mandatory military service. About 63% of the nation wants to keep having young men drafted into service and surprisingly, about 74% of young men are supporters of the draft system. Most Swedish military officials do no believe it is possible to obtain sufficient volunteers which makes a draft process the only way to maintain an effective armed force. The military argues it is a cost-efficient system since there is no need to offer hight bonus payments or incentives to get new recruits.
The United States relies on a volunteer army which means people can support military ventures such as the idiotic invasion of Iraq because their sons and daughters are not subject to death. What if all young men had to serve, would there be as much enthusiasm for invading nations when it is your own flesh and blood who might die?

Smells like a Fork Liftis
What are you thoughts about southern wheeling?
I have talked to alot of people here at the shop about wheeling parks down south. Most of them have told me that they are affraid of getting into trails that are too hard and wrecking their Jeeps or getting physical harm to themselves. Alot of these people also treat the Badlands with the same regards.
At every park I have wheeled (Badlands, Flat Nasty, Windrock, Tellico, and Harlan) all have about 5x as many intermediate trails then hardcore trails. None of the trails in any of those parks just turn into gnarly trails that are impossible. A jeep on 33's with open diffs could run most of tellico and on stuff you have problems with, alot have bypasses or easy places to winch.
Everytime we go down south, I have more and more fun. The first time running in the Mountains of Tellico, I was in awe of the scernery. People talk about 200' drop offs here and 300' drop off there, but I have never felt that my life was in harms way while wheeling on trails in higher altitude. I wish I would have had a less capable wheeler for Tellico, as most of the trails were intermidate.
I just am getting tired of listening to everyone say they are scared of these trails. You are really missing out on great views, fun trails and really enjoying long trail rides. If your affraid that if you go, you might feel embarrassed for not finishing something, get OVER IT! I have come upon alot of trails that I have not tried, or didn't finish. I would hate to see people never take a trip south because of their misconceptions of what the trails are really like!
Alot of these trails may close in the future ahead, So go and run them while you still can! Trust me, you won't regret it!
Rosie out.

i love heading south, can't stand wheeling at attica anymore, strictly based on the fact that for 3 more hours of driving i can be in harlan on more trails than i could do in a weekend. scenery is no comparison, trail difficulty is as hard as you want, and the rocks don't seem to be nearly as sharp, and there's nothing better than driving over a rock bigger than your house.

i have not had the chance to go anywhere more south than MI.
i know very few people with rigs and would not want to go on my own.
i dont think it would be that big of a deal, given that there is plenty of people around there and i would think cell phones work.
i have been up in canada in some nerve racking spots with noone around for miles with no cell phones.
and on top of that it was just me and my brother im my jeep alone.
so given the chance to go with people. i dont see not trying anything if you have people to help you.

Covered in mud...
Liked tellico a ton, harlan was fun, but, heh, the group I was with even there didn't want to run through some of the fun stuff and didn't even want me to run through can opener because they were worried on if I borke how they'd get me out
But I also enjoy trails in canada just as much, and brimy's comments could just as easily go for places like that, too.
I think its just hard to get people out of their comfort zone.
In general, though, this is why I scratched the buggy I had started this spring and am building a Jeep thats smaller than my old toyota. More fun with less vehicle.

When we made our Three park trip last April, it cost me $1000 to tow 1700 miles, admission into 3 parks for myself and my wife and cabin rentals. This last trip to Windrock, I spent less then $600 total.
I would really challenge people to take at least one trip 500+ miles away once a year. You do it once and you will count down the days to go back.

The thing that gets me is, I could never be content only wheeling one state or one area... There are way too many places I want to see!
You're dead on with the intermediate trails too. We used to go to Moab every year and in the beginning it was all with one locker and 31s. Always had a blast no matter what. Plus, its a lot cheaper usually in fuel to get a few friends or family driven out of state for wheeling than it is to get those same people flown somewhere on "vacation".
Oh, and we did a lot of trips back in the day by ourselves and just met up with random people at the trail heads. Met some cool people that way. Especially now with the age of the internet, there shouldn't be any excuse for finding people to tag along with

Other side of the coin, though.
Everywhere you go, really depends on a lot of factors, and how much its been ripped up. For example, just a simple rainstorm can take something from boring to an all day affair.
Tellico for sure gets ripped up and changed. I know I've heard, and seen video of people going up guardrail with 31-33s. When we were there, we had a group of about 8 on 35-38s, locked capable rigs, no one could do it without a string. Only saw one vehicle make it, he was on red labels. Likewise, we came down 12 at night when it was slick, just about everyone took some good body damage. Daytime, dry weather, going uphill, would have been a lot different.
Hell, I don't care where it is, getting out, camping on a nice crisp sept/oct day, good wheeling, good times.
Fawk I gotta finish my Jeep....

Happy Music Monday! If you're on schedule with that summer romance, you should be hitting "tearful breakup" sometime this week. Hey, it's nobody's fault. That's just how summer romances work. In a few months, you'll be able to look back at the good times and laugh. Today, though, you need some good breakup songs. Scott's ready to help you out, starting below.
The Buzzcocks - Ever Fallen In Love... (With Someone You Shouldn't've)
Yeah, you knew when you started it wouldn't end well. But it was love! Who can stand in the way of love? As they say, only love can break your heart. It's the glorious mistakes that ultimately make us who we are. Pete Shelly's song reminds us that even if it hurts now, you'll be better for it… eventually.
More to come, along with the Spotify playlist, right after the jump.
Come enjoy our Spotify playlist! We're showing off our Back To School playlist as a companion to our previous post collecting name songs from men and women. Check those out in our great big mix after you enjoy our current Music Monday below.
Bob Dylan - Don't Think Twice It's Alright
Oh, they were never serious about staying in touch after camp ended? That special summer someone unfriended you on Facebook after dropping you off at the airport? Brush your shoulders off, sir or madam. Don't think twice.
Sinead O'Conner - Troy
There probably isn't another song that captures the passion of love cut too soon. Sinead O'Conner's rarely performed… well, epic covers basically an entire dying relationship from start to finish. The slow whispers, the deep innocent love, the angry condemnations, and ultimately, a sort of closure. Since the artist is not really forthcoming about the deeper meaning, there's a chance this isn't actually intended to be about a romantic breakup, but it just FEELS like one, doesn't it?
Roxy Music - Over You
In this jangling tune lies a dark secret: for a few weeks after a break up, everything reminds you of what you had and shared. When it's darkest, you might think you'll never EVER get over them. But take heart, your best friend the twang says! It's always darkest just before dawn. And every step you take is a step forward.
Gloria Gaynor - I Will Survive
That's right, Gloria reminds us. Look after you, now. Don't keep wasting time on rebounding. They didn't want you? Their loss! Put on your good shoes and head out with a smile. Because living well is the best revenge. And, let's face it, it was only just a summer romance anyway.
Sure, this time Scott ran with an extended metaphor, but it's nothing personal. You're still welcome in our Turntable.fm room for the regular Music Monday enjoyment. And maybe, just maybe, you'll have a good summer breakup song of your own to add in the comments? Also, just FYI, some images come from the corresponding Wikipedia page and are here under fair use.
The classic Grease song "Summer Nights" has the summer romance then the breakup at the end of the song. Also Bryan Adam's "Summer of 69" has the summer romance then the breakup at the end.
"Brush your shoulders off" - this song always had a bit of cognitive dissonance for me - the singer is obviously bitter at the lover and feels abandoned - thus leading to his own departure. But he sings: 'Don't think twice, it's all right'. Heavy irony, raised to meta-irony by Dylan's comments about the song.
Exactly on topic is this lovely number from Shonen Knife. Another Day
Also from the Buzzcocks: Wish I Never Loved You
If 'Stormy Night' can be construed as Summer: 'Two Out of Three Ain't Bad' by Meat Loaf.
If getting shot by your own gang counts as a breakup: 'Jungleland' by Bruce Springsteen.
Bonus question: What do these two songs have in common?
Sad Breakup songs? Sadcore is my genre of choice. Songs that are just straight up depressing is what I listen to exclusively. Here are a couple of my favorites off the top of my head.
Carissa's Wierd (sic) - They'll only miss you when you leave.
telephones and postcards with misshaped hearts beside the names
i've read this letter for the hundredth time today
i've rearranged, analyzed the words
tried to find something between the lines that wasn't there
at least now i can see through these worn out lines and torn up pages,
don't know how i'll fall asleep tonight
This song could be interpreted as a breakup song (a friend I showed it to did) but it's actually about a guy who kills himself and leaves his woman alone. I guess that's the biggest way to break up with someone.
Elliott Smith - I didn't Understand Beautiful song showcasing Elliot's beautiful lyrics and sad storytelling abilities.
Wilco - We're just friends
>TFW the girl you love doesn't love you and you stay friends hoping you can at least still be friends, but she doesn't want anything to do with you.
The Antlers - Two
This is the part where The narrator and Sylvia break up in The Antlers' Concept Album - Hospice. Great listen if you've never checked it out. It tries so desperately to pull at your heartstrings and normally that's annoying, but they do such a damn good job I don't even care.
Flaming Lips - Fight Test
Here's a story about a young guy who lost the girl because he didn't stand up for her and prove his worth to her.
Sometime Around Midnight from The Airborne Toxic Effect:
Wake up
It's over again
The day is getting colder
Head aches, my mind breaks
Kicked the covers on the floor
They're laughing
Everybody's seeming happy
I say it's too early
To smile, I haven't done that in a while
(I love the phrase "sadcore".) Now I am sad and need to go look at otter pictures for a while.
Ash has a few good summer breakup type songs.
Oh Yeah she was taking me over
Oh Yeah it was the start of the summer
On warm June evenings
She would come to my house
Still in her school skirt
And her summer blouse
Talking too long as the night came on
It was the best time of my life
Her bee stung lips,
Kisses sweeter than wine
The things she whispered
With breathless sighs
The summer air was soft and warm
Her eyes were making silent demands
And as her hair came undone in my hands
Oh Yeah she was taking me over
Oh Yeah it was the start of the summer
Driving her home after midnight
I felt so good everything was alright
Her thoughts seemed so lost in the night sky
I remember everything
I don't know why these things ever end
I sometimes wish it was that summer again
I still see her in my sleep
And hear the sighing of the summer wind
Still I don't regret one thing
Oh Yeah she was taking me over
Oh Yeah it was the start of the summer
It felt just like it was the start of forever
Oh Yeah it was the start of the summer
Your beauty took my breath away
In awe all day
Your company was so relaxing
Easy going ways
We saw the first signs of summer
And spring time change
Walking barefoot along the sand
I hadn't planned to stay
Yeah we've been walking barefoot all summer
It'll be sad my friend
To see it come to an end
Why can't we just quit
You are broke all summer
But you still sing
Don't need money when it's sunny
Don't need anything
Just need music and sun and laughter
And no currency
The sun on your bare shoulders
It comes for free
Yeah we've been walking barefoot all summer
It'll be sad my friend
To see it come to an end
Why can't we just quit
Yeah we've been walking barefoot all summer
Why can't we just design
To live like this all the time
Why can't we just quit
Sand ran through my fingers
And the land was hot
Anointed by Apollo and his chariot
Disarmed by your charm
That night I felt it again
Addictive and consuming
Love's sweet pain
Yeah we've been walking barefoot all summer
It'll be sad my friend
To see it come to an end
Why can't we just quit
Our days are as the wind blows us
We are free
You've a quiet life out of town
Of coastal ease
The wind it has no pattern
We take life slow
And when the night has fallen
Our cup overflows
When the summer's gone and the room is cold
When you're looking at the rain and it just won't go
Remember when the sun was high up above
Remeber when the days were long
And we were in love
Yeah we've been walking barefoot all summer
It'll be sad my friend
To see it come to an end
Why can't we just quit
Yeah we've been walking barefoot all summer
Why can't we just design
To live like this all the time
Why can't we just quit
Am I the only one who has tons of playlists on this very topic? Perhaps I've endured way too many breakups. And while I have about 50 that I could list, I'll hit the ones that resonated with me most: Don Henley-Boys of Summer, Madonna - Take a Bow, Jewel - You Were Meant for Me, Sade - Pretty much anything by her, Sinead O'Connor - Nothing Compares 2 U, Vertical Horizon - Best I Ever Had, Kelly Clarkson - Behind These Hazel Eyes (and any of her new stuff too). But the very best breakup song IMHO is REO Speedwagon's Time for Me to Fly.
EDIT: The list is not specific to Summer, but heartache knows no season.
Id play that on repeat.
Thought maybe it was too obvious. Its the first thing that came to mind but I didnt see it mentioned yet.
One of my favorite breakup songs by one of my favorite local bands:
Matthew Sweet You Don't Love Me from his Girlfriend CD. Give it a listen. Really, the whole album takes you through the whole relationship thing. This is something I really shouldn't be listening to right now though. :p
My personal favorite, Next Girl by The Black Keys
ALso The Scientist by Coldplay. Makes ya cry.
and +1 on Sometime Around Midnight!
Since the best ever (Don't Think Twice...) is already represented, I'll just leave these two:
Art Brut - People in Love
Fiona Apple - Love Ridden
The Corrs - I Never Loved You Anyway
Happiest-sounding snarky breakup song ever?
These may not be summer break-up songs, but one my favorite tracks is Rainbow - Since You've Been Gone.
A couple other tunes: Weird Al - You Don't Love Me Anymore and of course The Greg Kihn Band's - The Break-Up Song.
Like a leech
I hold on as if we belonged
To some precious pure dream
Cast off you've seen what's beneath
Now fail me
Marvin Gaye - That's the Way love Is
I'm a fan of The Cyrkle's Red Rubber Ball (originally penned by Paul Simon and Bruce Woodley)
"Now I know you're not the only starfish in the sea.
If I never hear your name again it's all the same to me..."
Barenaked Ladies - Break Your Heart
I am sure that it's pathetic, but I actually have a break up CD.... seriously.
This CD contains such uplifting tunes as: Stronger (Christina Agulera, and one by Sara Evans), I love myself today (Bif Naked), Believe (Cher), Since U been gone (Kelly Clarkson), Don't Bother (Shakira), and of course I will survive (Gloria Gaynor) among several other great songs in this well worn CD...

Mine would have to be Black Flag's My War, with such uplifting tunes as Beat My Head Against The Wall, The Swinging Man, and Nothing Left Inside.
I remember reading a review of it that said something like, "Side 1 is great, but side 2 is nothing but Henry Rollins screaming like a wounded animal over the drone of Greg Ginn's guitar." I had to guess that reviewer never had a broken heart.

1. Sport-Specific Training
The purest form of training for any activity is the activity itself. To be effective, a training program must reproduce the functional movements and metabolic demands of the sport being trained for. Sport-specific training challenges athletes' to perform specific movements and movement patterns safely, efficiently and subconsciously; develops the appropriate energy systems; and promotes muscular adaptations that lead to superior sport performance.
2. Multiple Joint Movements
No single body part works in isolation during movement. The body works synergistically (muscles, joints and proprioceptors work together) to produce complex movements. Running, jumping, shooting and throwing all require multiple joint actions timed in synchronized neuromuscular recruitment patterns. Thus, integrated movements should be trained, not individual muscles, if the goal is to maximize function and performance.
3. Multiple Plane Movements
Movement in sport occurs in three planes- sagittal (forward-backward), frontal (side-to-side) and transverse (rotational) and combinations of all three. Resistance training should incorporate exercises and movement patterns that develop strength and efficiency in each plane. Movement training should emphasize acceleration (force production), deceleration (force reduction) and agility (change of direction skills) since these areas have the greatest impact on sport performance.
4. Ground-Based Movements
Most sport skills are initiated by applying force in to the ground, on one leg or two. The more force an athlete can apply against the ground, the faster they will accelerate, the higher they will jump and the more effective they will be in sport. Lifting exercises should be chosen to enhance this ability to generate force. Squatting (single and double-leg) and the Olympic movements (clean, snatch & jerk) are recognized as the best movements for this purpose. Plyometrics and sport-specific agility drills are also effective.
5. Explosive Training
The ability to generate force at high rates of speed (power) is crucial in sport. Training explosively, using ground-based, multiple joint movements trains the body to recruit fast motor units at high rates of speed. This, in turn, improves performance potential.
6. Periodization
Performance gains will eventually plateau and even diminish if the same training prescription is continually followed. Periodization is a scientifically proven model that uses different combinations of volume, load (intensity) and exercise specificity to progressively overload the body and bring about specific adaptations.
7. Recovery
No training program can be successful without a commitment to nutrition, rest and a healthy lifestyle. Decreases in performance can often be traced to a poor diet, poor sleep habits, and/or lack of recovery time. It is essential that athletes understand and apply regeneration techniques that accelerate recovery.
8. Character
Becoming the best possible athlete requires more than talent, consistent training and a commitment to nutrition. A foundation that includes resolve, discipline, courage, perseverance and selflessness is essential for true success. These attributes must be emphasized, developed and rewarded during training.

Green Bay Hosts Youngstown State in Battle of First and Second
By Justin Grones (@JustinGrones)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - Winners of 15 straight games, the RV/RV Green Bay women's basketball team (20-2, 10-0 HL) will play the third of four straight at home against Youngstown State (17-5, 7-2 HL) tomorrow afternoon at the Kress Center. Tipoff between the first-place Phoenix and second-place Penguins will be at 2 p.m. with the game broadcast live on the Horizon League Network.
Green Bay will look to sweep the season series with Youngstown State following an 88-51 win over Cleveland State on Thursday. In the victory over the Vikings, senior Sarah Eichler (Grafton, Wis.) became the 31st member of the Green Bay women's basketball 1,000-point club and finished with a team-high 14 points. Eichler is the second Green Bay player to accomplish the feat this season, after Adrian Ritchie (De Pere, Wis.) did so on a three against Indianpolis on Nov. 30.
The Phoenix outscored Cleveland State's bench 37-0, led by freshman Brionna Barnett (Elkhart, Ind.) who entered the game with just 11 career points. Barnett scored 13 points on 5-6 shooting and a 3-4 mark from long range, joining Eichler as one of six players in double figures on the night.
SCOUTING YOUNGSTOWN STATE: After finishing 0-30 just three years ago the Horizon League's most improved team, Youngstown State, enters Saturday's contest with a 17-5 overall record and a 7-2 mark in conference play. The Penguins have won six straight games after Green Bay defeated the Penguins 59-41 on Jan. 19. Youngstown State is led by Brandi Brown, who averages a double-double with 19.3 points and 11.8 rebounds per game.
FIRST TIME AROUND: Green Bay defeated the Penguins 59-41 on the road on Jan. 19, led by Lydia Bauer (Lake Zurich, Ill.) who had 15 points on 6-8 shooting. Bauer hit an NBA-length three at the buzzer of the first half, swinging the momentum in the Phoenix's direction. Jenny Gilbertson (Wabasha, Minn.) scored nine points on 3-4 shooting from downtown in the second half, allow Green Bay to pull away for the win.
FIFTEEN STRAIGHT: The Phoenix pushed its winning streak to 15 games with Thursday's win over Cleveland State, with the last loss back on Dec. 5 at Central Michigan. Since the streak began, Green Bay has held opponents to just 45.9 points per game while boasting a +21.6 scoring margin. The team has shot 47.2 percent front the field and 34.4 percent from long range, while holding a +4.7 advantage on the boards. Green Bay has also averaged 18.5 points per game, while forcing 19.3 turnovers per contest.
RIGHT AT THE EDGE: Green Bay was the top vote-receiving team for the second straight week in both Top 25 polls and remains at No. 2 with four first-place votes in the College Insider Mid-Major Top 25 poll. With 43 votes in the AP Top 25 poll, the Phoenix fell just six votes short of No. 25 Oklahoma State.
NEXT IN LINE: Lydia Bauer is next in line to join the 1,000-point club, as she enters Saturday's contest with 879 career points. She's averaging 9.7 points per game this season on 41.8 percent shooting, including a 35.7 percent mark from long range.
FOLLOW IT LIVE: Saturday's game will be carried live on the Horizon League Network, found on HorizonLeague.com.

KCPT Special Correspondent Sam Zeff examines the disturbing trends in suicide in Kansas and Missouri. KCPT's Education Reporter Lindsey Foat checks in on the Mayor's initiative to combat summer reading slump. Randy Mason sits down with Patrick Neas and Emily Behrmann to talk about Radio Bach. Thill Media profiles Kansas City Fire Department Rescue Division Chief Todd Ackerson.
A startling report from the CDC shows a 40 percent increase in suicides among baby boomers, especially men. The start of the recession resulted in a spike in the number of suicides and the rate is climbing even faster in Johnson County where experts theorize that financial challenges were proving too much for boomers accustomed to a successful and prosperous life. The rates of suicide in Kansas and Missouri continue to be above the national average. Reporter Sam Zeff examines this disturbing trend.
Around 80 percent of Kansas City kids are lagging in reading skills and the summertime break often results in a significant drop off when the kids return to school. Mayor Sly James made combating summer slump as one of the key components of his Turn the Page Initiative which aims to help kids read at grade level by third grade. Lindsey Foat reports on the results of summer literacy programs around the metro.
Randy Mason is joined by Patrick Neas and Emily Behrmann to discuss the recent launch of Radio Bach. Neas, classical music's morning voice in Kansas City for many years with KXTR, and Behrmann, general manager of Johnson County Community College's Carlsen Center, talk about this new media partnership and how the internet radio idea got started.
Todd Ackerson, Rescue Division Chief for the Kansas City Fire Department, was honored last month at the MARC Regional Leadership Awards. Ackerson trains regional rescue teams how to handle special, technical situations such as water rescue and recovery and search and recovery from building collapses. Thill Media produced this profile of Ackerson.

Angelfish Tank Dark Substrate?
I am going to set my 72 bow front up as an angelfish tank, and I wanted to make it a planted tank. I am new to planted tanks, and didn't have much luck when I tried one years ago. I have spent a good bit of money on the canister filter and lighting, and didn't want to spend a ton on substrate, but I want to do it right. I also want it to last a long time, as I don't plan on moving anytime soon and want this to be a permanent fixture in my home. I have seen black diamond recommended and just dirt. The dirt suggestion scares me a bit because that can refer to a wide range of products and i don't want to add anything that would be harmful to fish. Can you suggest what kind of "dirt" to use? I need a good starter mix suggestion, and what sort of fertilizer to add and how often to add it to maintain fish and plant health. Also, I plan on keeping plecos and clown loaches not sure if that will affect suggestions. Another note, I wanted to use a substrate that would help maintain a slightly acidic tank as that is what Angels prefer (6.5-6.8) Thanks
dirt can refer to mineralized top soil, MGOCPM (miracle grow organic choice potting soil) or a number of commercial pre-mineralized products, all of which though would require a cap. i would personally go for a cap of black diamond medium grit (20-40) it's what is in my pinoy angel tank and i love it
Thanks, I have used the MGOCPM in my Chameleon enclosures, but wasn't sure if it was safe for aquarium use. Is there any need to add starter fertilizer if I use this suggestion?
Make sure it is the organic potting mix and NOT garden soil. Orangey browny colored bag.
If you're going low light you shouldn't need to add any fertilizers. Maybe some water column dosing (ex. dry ferts or Seachem Flourish line) but I never had to in my dirted tanks.
pH is not a factor for angels. if you are importing WILD angels then it is a factor-- otherwise ignore pH, no one messes with pH for angels just straight tap regardless of where you live
Welcome to TPT!
So with the only posts made on the forum to date starting with the opening of this thread WELCOME to the board!
That opening post really looks to parallel my tanking goals almost exactly. Problems here early on with plants was ultimately discovered to be water related (messed up mineral content). I had kept fish only tanks for years without much challenge so failing to grow plants was frustrating. All water sources are not created equal (laughing now after months of whining). The more I learned the more importance I placed on knowing GH, KH and TDS values. pH I have come to ignore except as it relates to dissolved CO2 levels on injected systems. Planted tanking has a few subtle differences to it as opposed to tanking fish only, pH testing is one of those.
pH concerns are basically last years reference for water quality. Looking at pH as it can be viewed in a planted tank the value is rarely static for a number of reasons (this getting to wordy already)
Having the equipment here I've placed electronic pH controllers on low light NPT (natural planted tank) systems just to see what happens during a 24hr period (used as a monitor). Lighting alone can shift tested pH by a full degree on soft water tanks. Monitoring what the pH reading was in the morning before the photoperiod and again late in the afternoon I recorded a full point shift in value. The only difference was lights on or lights off (more or less CO2 in solution).
Shifts in pH don't really effect our critters, shifts happen naturally all the time. Water is better understood when defined by it's mineral and organic content, that's what the critters are swimming and living in.
Shifts in GH, KH, TDS, (changes in osmotic pressure) that's what effects our critters not a pH value or change in pH per say so yes ignore pH but not the overall mineral content.
Playing around with different parameters plants have since been grown well below the widely stated threshold for minimum light requirements. When using more intense light energy then supplying the full balance of plant nutrients becomes really important or you may find yourself running daily to stay ahead of algae growth. Starting with basic mineral content to eliminate the wide range of deficiency failures then it's easy with the majority of plants. Learning a little water chemistry goes a long way keeping a water box of healthy weeds and fish. Learning how to control light energy goes a long way in in reducing the work to maintain the tank.
First step (imo), know what your source water contains so you can either ignore it or address what needs to be added.
(Most fish stores will do complimentary testing.)
Critters, I have 4 clown loaches that are about 3yrs old kept in a group. They need to be kept in groups because they are a very social fish and get to large for most tanks long term >90g is a good tank size (imo).
Both LFABN and L144 'pleco' kept here and while the adults regularly wipe out the eggs from my angel spawns they don't harm free swimming fish in my experiences with them. Properly fed they don't destroy my plants either.
Miracle Gro Organic Choice Potting Mix is the bagged 'dirt' product I use.
MGOCPM (potting mix) contains soils and a large portion of organic material (55-65% by volume). Sphagnum peat moss, composted bark fines, leaves, twigs, wood chips etc. and "pasteurized poultry litter" (cooked chicken crap). 0.10-0.05-0.05
The contents of the mix can vary obviously to some degree but I've yet to experience real trouble using it and find the results in tank to be very consistent so far. I've tanked this bagged dirt mix a number of different way.
The first tank here using soil was a learning curve but that said,,,
just 1" of the mix capped with Flourite original and flooded 4/29/2009 is still growing a nice crypt garden.
Basically unchanged since the start.
Adding muriate of potash and clay to one of the last flooded 3/16/2011 the growth results are good.
I use sponge equipped powerheads for water movement on a number of tanks from 5g to 55g so I'll leave no comment on the need for high end filters to maintain planted aquariums.
Known mineral content in the supplied water, trace additions added weekly or only during water changes and monitored NO3, PO4, TDS ranges.
dirt works for me :smile:
again WELCOME! to a new member that might be getting dirty :fish:
Thanks guys, very helpful info, I've always been concerned about ph, but as you have stated a lot of factors can change this. I really appreciate the advice, I think I'm going to be using this forum a lot more over the next couple months as I'm getting my tank setup. How thick should my dirt layer be and how much of a cap should I put on it?
there is also dedicated aqua soils on the market.

Passion Pit
Columbia Records also liked what they heard and paired with Frenchkiss to release Manners, the first album by the group (which now consisted of Angelakos, Nathan Donmoyer, Ian Hultquist, Ayad Al Adhamy, and Jeff Apruzzese), in spring of 2009. The band's long-awaited 2012 follow-up, Gossamer, was preceded by the singles "Take a Walk," "I'll Be Alright," and "Constant Conversation," and featured new member Xander Singh, who replaced Adhamy. While touring shortly after the album's release, Angelakos canceled the remaining dates to enter a facility to seek help for his bipolar disorder. Passion Pit resumed activities a few months later with an appearance on Saturday Night Live in October, then were quiet until the next year when they headlined the Coastline Festival in Florida and released the Constant Conversations EP. Nothing more was heard until Xander Singh and Ian Hultquist quit the band in late 2014. Better news came in 2015 with the announcement of a new album and the release of a single, "Lifted Up (1985)," in February. With liner notes crediting solely Angelakos as a member, Passion Pit's bubbly third album, Kindred, was released soon after. ~ Chris True & Tim Sendra

My favorite part of this tradition is that it makes each day in December special, not just Christmas and Christmas Eve. For idea inspiration, I use some of Jordan's, some of mine, and other ideas from a google search. Here's the list for this year in no particular order:
1. Decorate a gingerbread house.
2. Write a letter to Santa.
3. Make new ornaments for the tree.
5. Read Luke II.
6. Donate a pair of PJ's to Ella's school's PJ drive.
7. Take a bubble bath and make Santa beards.
8. Tell each family member something you like about them (Ella's idea).
9. Mail Christmas cards to both Grandmas and Grandpas.
10. Look at a window display at a department store.
11. Sit on Santa's lap.
12. Watch a Christmas cartoon/movie.
13. Explain the reason why we have Christmas Trees (Ella's idea).
14. Donate Food.
15. Check out Christmas books from the library.
Check out the rest of the list here.
Do you have an advent calendar? I got my Marimekko calendar the first year I started the tradition. I ADORE it. I wish I could have it up year round.
Are you going to do an advent calendar this year? If nothing else, it gives you automatic blog content each day!
