Phrases That Define Advertising Campaigns
An advertising slogan is a concise phrase that defines an advertising campaign. The most effective and catchy slogans are imprinted in the collective mindset of the masses so that they automatically associate the phrases with the products for the longest time. Some advertising slogans have seeped so deeply into the public consciousness that they become much more than just some catchphrases to sell some products.
For instance, the legendary Nike slogan "Just Do It" has emerged from its advertising shadows to become a mantra of life for many people. Some advertising slogans have such a long life that they become part of pop culture. It has been close to 30 years since Brooke Shields said "You wanna know what comes between me and my Calvins… nothing," but many people still remember her in those advertisements. Since then, Calvin Klein jeans have become "sexy." Just like other forms of pop culture, advertising slogans can be just as iconic in defining a generation. Here are some of the most memorable advertising slogans.
40 popular ad slogans and campaigns:

Rescue Organizations
"We are a group of individuals who rescue dogs/puppies from local shelters. We do not have a facility so our animals live with us at our homes and are treated as one of our own until they find their forever home. All of our adult dogs are up to date on shots and deworming, flea/tick treatment, heartworm preventative and spay or neutered. Our puppies have as many shots as their age allows and have been dewormed. Any unaltered puppies are adopted out with a spay/neuter contract and we follow up with adopter's veterinarian once the animal is appropriate age or size to sterilize. We do not specialize in a certain breed. We rescue all shapes, sizes, colors and personalities."

How to Space Water Heater Flue Vent from Outside Wall?
Does anyone know how far a flue vent for a gas hot water heater needs to be from an adjoining outside wall? We have just completed a two-story addition off the back of our house. Where the outside wall of the 2nd story meets the roof of the old house happens to be where the hot water heater vents. So the vent is now about 18 inches from the outside wall of the addition. We don't want to move the hot water heater, but we also don't want to build a chase up the outside wall just for the flue. If anyone can suggest a remedy -- and knows how far we need to place the vent from the wall -- it would be greatly appreciated. My plumber thinks it needs to be 8 feet from the wall or run up to the top of the 2nd story in a chase. But I can't find anything spelled out in the IRC.
Codes vary from place to place, and you really need to ask your local Building Inspection Department. You don't want to do anything that violates local codes or endangers your family in any way.

Donate to The Gulf
From Texas to Florida, your donation will help us lead long-term restoration efforts in the Gulf of Mexico.
Business and community leaders in the Gulf clearly recognize the important link between a healthy environment and a thriving, resilient economy. Here is one example of a leader working to make a difference in the Gulf.
Chris Nelson is vice president of Oyster Procurement, R&D and Governmental Affairs for his family-owned and operated Bon Secour Fisheries, Inc. seafood business in Bon Secour, Alabama along the Gulf of Mexico. Bon Secour Fisheries employs about 100 people in Alabama and processes fresh shrimp and oysters from the Gulf of Mexico.
"The Gulf of Mexico is a very beautiful body of water. It carries a lot of cache, particularly for the shrimp and oysters. It's an area of production that people respect for the fact that it's a clean and relatively pristine body of water, so it's important to me that it stays that way. I'm fourth-generation in the business—it's a nice legacy to be a part of. I have two children who could one day become the fifth generation in the business, and I would like to leave them a healthy environment."
"I think that we can, with the proper management and environmental restoration, maintain water quality, maintain the quality of life here and maintain the way things look. But my main concern is to be able to have access to the water and the resources, and that they be maintained at a level that will support our business."
From Texas to Florida, your donation will help us lead long-term restoration efforts in the Gulf of Mexico.

Not that the stock triggers are not good enough for defensive work but it's like the difference between driving a pickup or a Viper. They both get you there but one sure drives different than the other.

The HTC Desire C may at first appear to have a fairly lowly screen – 3.5in, 320 x 480 pixels – but it's worth considering that it has the same specs as the first three iPhones and they did the job. The result is that while not the sharpest screen around, it's sufficient for all the usual smartphone duties and moreover it's of reasonable quality with fairly bright colours and good viewing angles. Like iPhones though, it's a little small to really enjoy watching video on and it can be a bit cramped for gaming.
All told, while perfectly serviceable you can get slightly larger, higher resolution screens for only a little more money, such as on the Samsung Galaxy Ace 2, for instance.
The single most budget aspect of this phone, however, is its processor. It's a single core chip that runs at a mere 600MHz. This sounds like it should make the phone unusable but there's more here than meets the eye. This chip is based on a newer architecture (Cortex A5 compared to ARM11) that has inherently better performance for any given clock speed. So in actual use, it's not bad. Moving round the interface, typing and such basics are absolutely fine.
That said, it does have its limitations. So while you certainly can browse fullsize, graphically rich websites, it can be a bit slow to do so. Likewise some of the latest 3D games may not play ball.
Putting that performance to the test we were actually surprised just how slow it is in benchmarks, considering how nippy it feels in use. Both SunSpider and BrowserMark have this phone beaten by all but two of the phones on our current benchmark results. Only the Orange San Francisco and San Francisco II are consistently slower, though a few others do come close.
Part of the reason it remains nippy in use that this phone runs Android 4.0 which, while more demanding than previous versions, tends to feel that bit snappier.
Ultimately, if you're used to 1GHz or faster phones from yesteryear, you'll find the Desire C a bit too sluggish. But for a first smartphone or as a step up from something like the super budget Orange San Francisco, there's enough here to keep you happy.
Battery Life
Despite its chunky dimensions, the Desire C didn't set any new records for how long it lasted on a single charge. With heavy use it was mostly dead in a day while light use had it last a day and a half or so. So, same old, same old really.

new drains
I am installing a new bathroom in the basement.
I have had to jackhammer the whole area up due to elevation changes in the old concrete, so the whole area is exposed to the dirt right now. I have also exposed a section of the existing cast iron drain, about 6ft.
I will be breaking into this to go to the new area that will be picking up a sink, toilet and shower. (and maybe a floor drain)
The sink and toilet P traps are above ground, so they are easy. The shower and floor drain will have the P trap in the ground. Does the bottom of the P trap need to be above the elevation of the main cast iron drain?
If so I can't make this happen as the run from the shower to the cast iron drain is about 1/2" over 10ft.
What other options would be available?
Toilet does not need a trap, it is the trap. Keep in mind that whatever you put under the concrete may need servicing at some point. Entry points for augers are handyier than digging up concrete.
I don't see where you mention anything about venting... Is there already a vent ?? If there isn't a vent that can be used you will have to add 1
In my opinion you are creating a future disaster. "P" traps stop sewer gas from entering providing there is proper venting but will not stop sewage back flow if the is any blockage or restriction in the main line. If it were me I would install a sewage pump system and connect to the stack higher up. Sewage pump systems have back flow preventers.
Where the bottom of the P-trap ends up is not an issue. You should have 1/8" per foot of fall on the pipe between the trap and where you connect to the drain. You could get away with as little as 1/16" or as much as 1/4" but 1/8" is best to move solid waste with the flow of water. Outside those parameters you will have problems with solid waste getting stuck in the drain and causing problems. A 10 foot run only requires 1 1/4" of fall. If you can not get the required fall consider raising the floor in the new bathroom enough to get the required fall.
I do not see the disaster "hayewe farm" is mentioning in the above post and if you can avoid a powered solution you should do so. Sure, a sewer can back up but you would have the same problem with the existing floor drains anyway. However "kenmac" brings up a good point about venting. Be sure you plan a vent for each fixture.
It might be a good idea to invest a couple of bucks in one of the plumbing books available at the big box stores. I find the Black & Decker or Sunset series pretty good DIY instruction if you can find them.
1 Attachment(s)
I have attached a rough sketch of what I intend to do.
Yes I will adding a clean out and the old does have clean outs already. (not shown)
I would like to stay away from powered drains.

First Triumvirate
Learn more about First Triumvirate
- For other uses, see First Triumvirate (disambiguation).
The First Triumvirate is a common name among historians to refer to the unofficial political alliance of Gaius Julius Caesar, Marcus Licinius Crassus, and Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus. Unlike the somewhat less famous so called "Second Triumvirate", the First Triumvirate had no official status whatsoever – its overwhelming power in the Roman state was strictly unofficial influence – and was in fact kept secret for some time as part of the political machinations of the Triumviri themselves. It formed in 60 BC and lasted until Crassus's death in 53 BC.
Crassus and Pompey had been colleagues (they had always despised each other) in the consulate for 70 BC, when they had legislated the full restoration of the tribunate of the people (the dictator Lucius Cornelius Sulla had stripped the office of all its powers except the ius auxiliandi, the right to rescue a plebeian from the clutches of a patrician magistrate). However, since that time, the two men had entertained considerable antipathy for one another, each believing the other to have gone out of his way to increase his own reputation at his colleague's expense.
Caesar contrived to reconcile the two men, and then combined their clout with his own to have himself elected consul in 59 BC; he and Crassus were already the best of friends, and he solidified his alliance with Pompey by giving him his own daughter Julia in marriage. The alliance combined Caesar's enormous popularity and legal reputation with Crassus's fantastic wealth and influence within the plutocratic Ordo Equester and Pompey's equally spectacular wealth and military reputation.
The Triumvirate was kept secret until the Senate obstructed Caesar's proposed agrarian law establishing colonies of Roman citizens and distributing portions of the public lands (ager publicus). He promptly brought the law before the Council of the People in a speech which found him flanked by Crassus and Pompey, thus revealing the alliance. Caesar's agrarian law was carried through, and the Triumviri then proceeded to allow the demagogue Publius Clodius Pulcher's election as tribune of the people, successfully ridding themselves both of Marcus Tullius Cicero and Marcus Porcius Cato, both adamant opponents of the Triumviri.
The Triumvirate proceeded to make further arrangements for itself. The senate awarded Caesar, as a snub to his dealings in the Triumvirate, "the woods and paths of Italy" as his proconsul territory. Caesar passed, through a tribune, his own ruling on the matter, and becameproconsul of both Gauls (Gallia Cisalpina and Gallia Transalpina) and of Illyricum, with command of four legions, for five years; Caesar's new father-in-law, Lucius Calpurnius Piso Caesoninus, was made consul for 58 BC, and Pompey and Crassus shared a second consulate in 55 BC. Pompey and Crassus then extended Caesar's proconsular government in the Gauls for another five years and secured for themselves as proconsuls the government of both Spains (Hispania Citerior and Hispania Ulterior) and of Syria, respectively, for five-year terms.
The alliance had allowed the Triumviri to dominate Roman politics completely, but it would not last indefinitely due to the ambitions, egos, and jealousies of the three; Caesar and Crassus were implicitly hand-in-glove, but Pompey disliked Crassus and grew increasingly envious of Caesar's spectacular successes in the Gallic War, whereby he annexed the entirety of modern France to Rome. Julia's death during childbirth and Crassus's ignominious defeat and death at Carrhae at the hands of the Parthians in 53 BC seriously undermined the alliance.
Pompey remained in Rome – he governed his Spanish provinces through lieutenants – and remained in virtual control of the city throughout that time. He gradually drifted further and further from his alliance with Caesar, eventually marrying the daughter of Quintus Caecilius Metellus Pius Cornelianus Scipio Nasica, one of the boni ("Good Men"), an archconservative faction of the Senate steadfastly opposed to Caesar. Pompey was elected consul without colleague in 52 BC, and took part in the politicking which led to Caesar's crossing of the Rubicon in 49 BC, starting the Civil War. Pompey was made commander-in-chief of the war by the Senate, and was defeated by his former ally Caesar at Pharsalus. Pompey's subsequent murder in Egypt in an inept political intrigue left Caesar sole master of the Roman world.
[edit] In-Depth Timeline
[edit] Revolts of Lepidus and Sertorius (78 to 72 BC)
Within two years of Sulla's death, someone attempted to emulate him. When one of the Consuls of 78 BC, Marcus Aemilius Lepidus, failed to carry out his intended political agenda, or have his Consulship extended, he attempted to raise an army in Cisalpine Gaul and march on Rome to seize power. The Senate turned to a military general who had aided Sulla in his civil war, and shown himself also to be a competent commander in Africa for Sulla: Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus.
Pompey put down Lepidus's rebellion, and then marched his own legions on Rome. Pompey camped his army outside the walls of Rome, and "requested" that he be given the right to campaign against the rebellion of Quintus Sertorius in Hispania (Sertorius was an opponent of Sulla's who had fled to Hispania during the proscriptions, and set up his own "counter-Rome" in that province). Though the brilliant guerilla tactics and leadership of Sertorius proved a thorn in Pompey's side, his murder by his former allies ended the campaign against his forces. The Senate, having "blessed" Pompey with the undertaking, was pleased at the young general's success and he was able to gain great political and military influence from his campaigns.
[edit] Crassus: Spartacus and the Third Servile War (73 to 71 BC)
- Further information: Third Servile War, Spartacus, and Marcus Licinius Crassus
One of the more easily over-looked social aspect in classical antiquity and of Roman society is Slavery. At that time almost all societies used slaves in various positions. The vast majority would perform back-breaking and dangerous labor and the more educated slave (a small minority) would work in a more bureaucratic position. The lives of the majority of slaves would usually consist of hard work and their living conditions would be quite harsh. From time to time slaves would revolt and military might would be used to crush the rebellion and the matter would be conveniently forgotten and nothing would happen. This time, it would be different.
The Roman Republic would be rocked by a slave revolt led by Spartacus who according to ancient sources was a Thracian auxiliary who had deserted from the Roman legions. He had been captured, enslaved and trained as a gladiator. In 73 BC he and some of his fellow gladiators rebelled at Capua and set up a military camp on Mount Vesuvius. Slaves across all the Italian peninsula flocked to him, and their numbers soon swelled to about 70,000. The best Roman legions were absent from Italy: some were in Spain under the command of Pompey, suppressing a rebellion led by Quintus Sertorius, while others were fighting in Asia Minor under the command of Lucius Licinius Lucullus against Mithridates. Initially, the rebel slaves had great success against the Roman legions sent against them, and wreaked havoc across the Italian peninsula. In 71 BC, however, Marcus Licinius Crassus was given military command and crushed the rebels. About 6,000 were crucified; 10,000 survivors who escaped were intercepted by Pompey, then returning with his army from Spain. Although Crassus did most of the fighting, Pompey also claimed credit for the victory, and this created tension between the two men.
[edit] Pompey and Crassus (70 BC)
With the slave rebellion crushed, Pompey once again marched his legions on Rome, and encamped outside its walls. He then demanded that he be elected Consul for the year 70 BC. In response Crassus immediately marched his legions towards Rome. However, instead of blocking Pompey's extortion, he camped his own legions outside Rome and demanded that he be elected co-Consul with Pompey. The Senate had no real choice but to agree.
Crassus and Pompey spent most of the year trying to outdo each other in the lavishness of their public expenditures. However they also pushed through several laws which wiped away the last vestiges of the "Sullan Reforms" and restored the problematic power of the Plebeian Assembly.
[edit] Third Mithradatic War
Meanwhile, Lucullus was fighting quite successfully, against Mithridates and his ally and son-in-law, Tigranes the Great, King of Armenia, but was unable to completely pacify the territories he conquered. At the same time, Marcus Antonius Creticus (father of Mark Antony) and Q. Caecilius Metellus were attempting to stamp out the plague of piracy afflicting the Mediterranean, with reportedly grotesque incompetence.
Because of these lack of successes, Pompey was given an extraordinary military command in 66 BC. He stamped out piracy within forty-nine days and then began pursuing Mithridates. Pompey annihilated his army, and Mithridates remained a fugitive for the last three years of his life. Pompey followed up these successes by conquering the entirety of the eastern coast of the Mediterranean, ending the rule of the Syrian Seleucid dynasty. The captured wealth of the conquests more than doubled the income of the Roman state, and Pompey now surpassed Crassus as the wealthiest man in Rome.
[edit] Catilinarian conspiracies
The economic situation in Rome itself, however, was still problematic. Debt was the intractable problem and many, both noble and not, found themselves burdened with incredible debts. Their mantle was taken up by Lucius Sergius Catilina, who ran for consul in 64 BC for the year 63 BC on the platform of a wholesale debt cancellation – essentially a redistribution of wealth. Despite his noble birth, his policies scared the optimates, who instead supported the novus homo Marcus Tullius Cicero. Cicero was duly elected; Catilina finished third and out of office. Catilina ran again the following year, but this time he was defeated even more heavily. He then, along with several dissolute senators, began planning a coup d'état that would include arson throughout Rome, the arming of slaves, and the accession of Catilina as dictator. Cicero found out and informed the Senate in a series of brilliant speeches, and was given absolute power by the senate ("senatus consultum ultimum"), in order to save the republic. He ordered the execution of the conspirators in the city without due trial; and his fellow consul, Gaius Antonius Hybrida defeated the army of Catilina near Pistoria. None of Catilina's soldiers were taken alive.
[edit] Julius Caesar and the First Triumvirate
In 62 BC Pompey returned from the east. Many senators, especially among the optimates, feared that Pompey would follow in the footsteps of Sulla and establish himself as dictator. Instead, Pompey disbanded his army upon arriving in Italy. Nevertheless, the Senate maintained its opposition to land grants for Pompey's veterans and the ratification of Pompey's eastern settlement. In addition, the Senate was also stonewalling Pompey's old enemy, Crassus, in his attempts to gain some measure of relief for his allies, the tax farmers. Now arriving onto the scene was a young politician who had a heretofore successful, but not brilliant, career — Gaius Julius Caesar. Caesar took advantage of the two enemies' dissatisfaction to bring them into an informal alliance known as the First Triumvirate. In addition, he reinforced his alliance by marrying his daughter, Julia, to Pompey. The three triumvirs would be able to dominate Roman politics because of their collective influence; the first step was Caesar's election to the consulship for 59 BC.
Attempting to pass the laws which would benefit both Pompey and Crassus, Caesar ran into heavy opposition from his very conservative consular colleague Marcus Calpurnius Bibulus, who used all manner of parliamentary tactics to stall the legislation. Caesar resorted to violence and Bibulus ended up under house arrest for most of the year, while Caesar was able to pass almost all of his legislation. He was then appointed Governor of Cisalpine Gaul and Illyricum for a five year period. When the Governor of Transalpine Gaul died unexpectedly, the Senate assigned that province to him as well.
Caesar took up his governorships in 58 BC. He immediately launched a series of military campaigns across all of Gaul known as the Gallic Wars, and even raided Germania and Britannia. For a nine year period he carefully played the gallic tribes against each other (divide and rule) and crushed all military opposition. These wars caused massive death and destruction and were, technically, illegal, as Caesar had exceeded his authority (which was supposedly limited to his provinces) in launching the invasions, but in Rome no one, except his enemies in the Senate, was too concerned.
Meanwhile, the Triumvirate at home needed a boosting. In 56 BC, the three triumvirs met at Lucca, just inside Caesar's province of Cisalpine Gaul (as a man in control of an army, he was not allowed to cross into Italy). The three triumvirs reached a new settlement: Crassus and Pompey were once again to be elected consuls for the year 55 BC; Pompey kept the command of the Roman legions in Spain (which he ruled in "absentia"), and Crassus, desiring military glory so that he could be on the same level as Pompey and Caesar, was given a military command in the east. Caesar's governorships were extended for another five years.
[edit] Death of Crassus
In 53 BC, Crassus launched an invasion of the Parthian Empire. He marched his army deep into the desert; but here his army was cut off deep in enemy territory, surrounded and routed at the Battle of Carrhae. Crassus himself was killed in battle, the story being that the Parthians, upon finding his body poured molten gold down his throat, symbolising Crassus' obsession with money.
The death of Crassus removed some of the balance in the Triumvirate; consequently, Caesar and Pompey began to move apart (a process which had begun in 54 BC, when Julia died in childbirth). Pompey, who previously had been the effective leader of the Triumvirate and, indeed, of the republic, was beginning to see his authority threatened by Caesar, whose campaigns in Gaul were vastly increasing his prestige, fortune and power. Consequently, Pompey began to align increasingly with the optimates, who themselves were very much opposed to Caesar and his "party" (that is, the populares).
At the same time an united Gallic uprising, led by Vercingetorix, nearly succeeded in toppling the Roman military presence in Gaul; but Caesar, with his usual speed and brilliant mix of military strategy and ruthlessness, was able to defeat Vercingetorix at the siege of Alesia. The Gallic Wars were essentially over (a third of all male Gauls had been slain; another third had been sold into slavery).
By 50 BC all Gallic resistance had been stamped out and Caesar had a veteran and loyal army to further his political ambitions. With Caesar's governorship drawing to a close, the two greatest political and military leaders of the Roman Republic were hard-pressed to find any common ground, and a crisis was growing which would be the final nail in the coffin of the Republic.

Spring Weather in Winter
Climate change was on my mind when I recently visited my community garden during weather that felt a lot more like spring than midwinter. I should not be surprised that in these mild temperatures the ornamental garden has slowed down but not ceased growing completely.

"I love my Dad."
It's so pretty here. The air smells so good. The water is so clean and tastes like no water I ever had. Everything is good here. My old friend Buddy is here and I met Annie, Sam, Hank, Doogie, Mazie and lots of dogs here. Even little Raggedy Andy is here. Boy he was real sick before he came her. REAL sick. He's fine now and very happy.I could go on and on but I will write more later.
Today was better for mom and dad. I talked to the master here and asked him to send a Boston to fix their sad and broken hearts. He did. They got the call early this morning and they picked up a 6mo old Boston male. He is a sweet little boy and he already made mom and dad smile. He will keep them busy and they will have something to smile about now.
Mom has not written in my diary for me in a LONG time. When Buddy left for the bridge she was so very sad. I know how hard it was for her. I'm not so good at comforting but Dad was sad too and they helped each other. Bella helped them and Bentley and Heidi too. I missed Buddy.
For about a week I have not been feeling so good. Mom and dad took me to see Dy Katy 2 times in 5 days. I got lots of medacine and I spent the day at the clinic both days I went. I like it there. Dr Katy watched me and if I had felt better I would have had more fun. I love Dr Katy. I couldn't help dancing and wiggeling when I heard her voice and I knew she was trying to help me stay here with my parents.
I felt so bad last night and mom layed on the sofa with her pillow so she could be close to me. She rubbed my back and head and I tried to lay down. I couldn't. It was too hard to breath when I layed down and then walking seemed to help so she layed on the sofa and I walked slowly around the house. I went over and she rubbed me and told me she loves me. Then things got fuzzy and I couldn't stand up anymore. I couldn't get a breath and I saw the pretty bridge right in front of me. Buddy was there and little Andy too. Bradley and Missy and Max all said hello and invited me to cross the bridge to where they are. Mom called dad and he came and bent over me with mom and rubbed me and talked to me. Dad said he loves me and that I am a good dog. He said it was OK for me to go. He said "go play with your friends. I'm going to miss you old man. It's OK foir you to go." Mom said she loves me and she will miss me too but I should go to the bridge and when I get there I will have both my eyes and I won't have shakey legs anymore. She said I am always hoing to be in their hearts and they will NEVER forget me." SO........I let go of this life and went on to the bridge. I saw mom and dad out burying my old body in the yard next to Missy. I wish they wouldn't cry so much. Their hearts are broken in tiny pieces and I know they will be sad for a long time. I'll help my friends watch over them from here. When I can I will let them know I am still with them. Now I will run and play with my friends. I have both eyes now and nothing hurts on my body anymore. I feel like a pup again.
I want my wings now. If one of my friends Mom's will make some for me I would appreciate that. I think Mom would really like that.
It's a rainy day. Dad left early this AM and came back with a NEW dog! Another new dog.... seems like every time they get one adopted out here they take in another one. Kind of made me aggrivated BUT then I was thinking about it more. As old as I am I have gained some wisdom about life and things. I am a lucky dog. I live with humans who are just determined to save dogs lives. It's true that they get another as soon as one has found a happy home. That is pretty nice. Of course Buddy, Bella, Bently and Heidi and not going to be adopted cause this is their furever home. Now you know Rose has been here for a long time and she says she is NOT leaving. lol Rose is a funny girl. She's been for adoption for 3 years! She snaps at people and just does not act nice when mom takes her to Petsmart for adoption day, once in a while. She says she is not nice to people cause she loves it here and she is just not leaving. lol I was thinking maybe I should do that too. Hummmmm That's a thought for a rainy day. I'll think about taking that tip from Rose. See, I like it here too.

I'm so glad the old building was saved. I do wish they'd had sense enough to expand horizontally. That monolithic eyesore is probably my number one pet peeve. >:\
I'll always remember the first time I came up to Tally. Coming up the Parkway, seeing the Capitol for the first time, I was awestruck. Old suspendered gentlemen sitting on benches, the strikingly GREEN lawn... it was the most beautiful city I'd ever seen.

We definitely share a common memory on the Old Capitol. I remember it as being strikingly beautiful. It is funny that some people actually thought it would detract from the "new" one. Actually, it turned out quite the opposite. We now have a graceful old building with a horrendous tower to the 70s standing behind it.

Mollie King's Summer-Ready Look at Wimbledon
Catching a bit of the action at the 2012 Wimbledon, Mollie King was spotted at the Evian Suite in London, England on Tuesday (July 3).
The gorgeous "Saturday's" singer looked lovely in a striped summer dress with brown sandals as she tweeted, "Amazing day with my big sis today! Huge thanks to @evian_uk #evianwimbledon xxx"
In other news, her bandmate Una Healy recently tied the knot with rugby star Ben Foden this past weekend.
The blonde beauty was a bridesmaid in the wedding but seemed to have a rough night as she shared, "Ok so let me set the scene for you, I have @VanessaTheSats and her bf sleeping in the room below me, & @RochelleTheSats and Marv nxt door & @RochelleTheSats comes over & says to me "if the beds a-rockin, don't come a-knockin"!!!

Water lettuce
Pistia stratiotes was added to the EPPO Alert List in 2007 and transferred to the List of Invasive Alien Plants in 2012.
Pistia stratiotes (Araceae) is an aquatic plant originating from South America. It is extensively traded for ornamental and aquarium purposes. The plant is thought to spread via dumpings of aquarium or escapees from ornamental ponds. It is an invasive plant often found in the tropics and subtropics.
Its common name is 'water lettuce' in English and 'laitue d'eau' in French. In the EPPO region, it is considered invasive in Islas Canarias (Spain). While absent from Scotland, it is listed in the Scottish Wildlife and Countryside Act which prohibits importation of the plant as well as of Eichhornia crassipes (see EPPO RS 2006/243) which resembles P. stratiotes.
Geographical distribution
EPPO region: France (found once in the Landes department but no longer present), Germany (found once in 1981 but no longer present), Italy (Campania, Emilia-Romagna, Lombardia, Toscana, Veneto), Russia (near Moscow), Slovenia (naturalized in a thermal stream), Spain (found in Pais Vasco and southern Spain but no longer present; Islas Canarias, considered invasive) (Victoria Eugenia Martin Osoria & Wolfredo Wildpret, pers. comm.).
Asia: Cambodia, China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam.
Africa (invasive): Burkina Faso, Seychelles, Swaziland.
North America: USA (Arizona, California, Colorado, Delaware, Georgia, Hawaii, Kansas, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, Missouri, Ohio, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, South Carolina, Texas), Virgin Islands (US).
Oceania: Australia (invasive) (Australian Capital Territory, New South Wales, Northern Territory, Queensland, Western Australia), Cook Islands (Rarotonga Island), French Polynesia, Guam, New Caledonia, Northern Mariana Islands (Rota Island), Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Vanuatu.
South America: Puerto Rico (invasive).
Note: The plant is considered to be native from South America, but a comprehensive list of countries could not be found. The plant has been eradicated from New Zealand. The plant is casual in France and perhaps also in other temperate countries of the EPPO region.
P. stratiotes is a free-floating perennial of quiet ponds which forms colonies. It is stoloniferous and has long, feathery, hanging roots. Leaves are light green and velvety-hairy with many prominent longitudinal veins, obovate to spathulate-oblong, 15 cm long and forming a rosette. Flowers are inconspicuous, few, unisexual, and enclosed in a leaf-like spathe. The fruit is a green berry.
Biology and ecology
Water lettuce reproduces both by seeds and vegetatively. Vegetative reproduction involves daughter vegetative offshoots of mother plants on short, brittle stolons. Rapid vegetative reproduction allows water lettuce to cover an entire lake, from shore to shore, with a dense mat of connected rosettes within a short period of time. In Florida (US), densities of up to 1,000 rosettes per m² have been reported. Stolons are spread by water currents and floods, and are also moved by boats or fishing equipments. The most commonly accepted pathway of this species into the USA is in ballast water released by ships from South America.
P. stratiotes occurs in lakes, water courses, wetlands.
Environmental requirements
P. stratiotes is usually found in lakes and rivers, however it can survive in mud. Its optimal growth temperature ranges from 22 to 30°C but it can endure temperature extremes of 15°C and 35°C.
Dense mats can have a negative economic effect by blocking waterways, thus increasing navigational difficulties and hindering flood control efforts. They can also lead to a lower concentration of oxygen in covered waters and sediments by blocking the air-water interface and root respiration. Extremely thick mats of P. stratiotes can prevent sunlight from reaching underlying water. The cumulative effect of these negative characteristics of the plant is a loss of biodiversity in invaded habitats. P. stratiotes mats can also serve as a breeding place for mosquitoes.
The most common physical control method is raking the plant from the pond's surface.
Chemical treatment can be done against P. stratiotes. For example, the contact herbicide endothall has been used successfully in North America.
A biological control programme against Pistia stratiotes was undertaken simultaneously with programmes for other aquatic invaders such as Eichhornia crassipes, Salvinia molesta and Hydrilla verticillata, to avoid the increase of other invasive species as one was controlled.
Regulatory status
In Australia, the plant is regulated in Western Australia, New South Wales, Queensland, Northern Territory and Australian Capital Territory. In the USA, the plant is regulated in Alabama, California, Connecticut, Florida, South Carolina, and Texas. A Pest Risk Analysis has been performed for the Pacific islands and is available from the Internet. In the United Kingdom, the Scottish Wildlife and Countryside Act prohibits the release of P. stratiotes into the wilderness.

Exploring bathroom addition on second floor
My house is walkout style with 2 floors. The basement is nicely finished. I have 2 bathrooms on the top floor and they're both on one end of the house. I'd like to add a powder room on the other end. This new bathroom will be within 10 feet (width wise) of a bathroom on the lower level. I can see that the waste stack venting comes up through a wall near where I'd like to put this extra powder room.
Am I screwed? I am thinking I will need to get into the plumbing below the floor line in the basement (which is concrete) to cut into the waste. I'll also need to cut into a wall on the lower level to add the piping for the waste lines. Am I correct?
Any outside the box ideas here?
Bump. Any plumbers here? Or have I not given enough info?
Yep.... you'll need to locate the nearest Wast to tie into..... and you might be able to use the existing vent as well.
Hi wease,
Sounds like you will need to do as your thinking, new line from basement and walls will have to open up, without seeing this, hard to say what you really need to do there.
Sorry for such a late reply.
I am currently at the finishing stage of a 2nd story master bath addition. To say the least, getting the plumbing up there was the hardest part of the job. But now that it is done Im glad I did it. Plan on opening floors and walls.
The bathroom in the basement is set on the concrete floor. Any idea how you would find the piping under the concrete that would need to be exposed for the plumber? I don't want to pay him to dig up concrete.
If the main enters the slab in basement, then won't you have to do is find the main in the wall and tie a new wye in to take to the addition.
You have a basement, is there no toilet on the mainfloor? if there is, then find the where that line comes down the wall and enters the slab in basement, should be a 3 or 4" line, expose it there and see if you can take it from there. Draw a picture a post you floor layout for you old and wanted area of plumbing.
That's the problem. I have 2 bathrooms on the top floor, both on the other end of the house. The closest bathroom on the top floor would be 55 feet from this new one and would need to snake through a stairway. Impossible.
The only option for connecting that I see is with the bathroom below it and about 10 feet to the side.
Yep that creates the problem, you will need to access the slab, and hope the turn does not head to the outside at that point or then you will need to get to the main from outside and bring in a new line.
Any idea how to go about finding the direction of the waste vent in that lower bathroom? Do I start at the source and just start ripping stuff up? or do I start at the wall where the plumbing will travel down through and work my way ... somewhere.
Most sewer will take the shortest route to city sewer. Sometimes if you know where the cleanout is at outside, remove the cap, look down in it, that might tell you how it's running out of house. If no idea, then start the the point where main enter the slab and follow it.

GABRG2 encodes a gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptor. Additionally we are shipping GABRG2 Antibodies (118) and GABRG2 Proteins (4) and many more products for this protein.
Nova1 (show NOVA1 ELISA Kits) interacts with GABAARgamma2 not only in the central nervous system but also in hepatocellular carcinoma. Nova1 (show NOVA1 ELISA Kits)'s potential mechanism as an oncogene (show RAB1A ELISA Kits) may due to its interaction with GABAA (show GABRg1 ELISA Kits) Rgamma2.
Thus, the presence of active GABA-A receptors, associated with phenotype determination via Ca(2 (show CA2 ELISA Kits)+)-signalling was demonstrated in differentiating human DA neurons.
common variants of GABRG2, RELN (show RELN ELISA Kits) and NRG3 (show NRG3 ELISA Kits) and the GABRG2-RELN (show RELN ELISA Kits)-PTCH1 (show PTCH1 ELISA Kits) interaction networks might confer altered susceptibility to Hirschsprung disease.
GABRG2, in combination with GABRA4 (show GABRA4 ELISA Kits), is associated with autism spectrum disorder in an Argentine dataset.
Deletion of the N-terminal extension and putative alpha-helix in heteromeric alpha1beta2gamma2 GABAA (show GABRg1 ELISA Kits) receptors in the gamma2 subunits reduced the number of functional receptors and incorporation into mature receptors.
Mutant GABRG2 may be responsible for genetic epilepsy as well neurodegeneration.
Mutations of the GABRG2 gene may increase the risk of rolandic epilepsy.
This study demonistrated that epilepsy-associated mutations N79S, R82Q and P83S disrupted GABAA (show GABRg1 ELISA Kits) receptor assembly to different extents, an effect that could be potentially rescued by facilitating protein folding and assembly.
These results present no evidence for an association of rs211037 with JME. Further studies are required to investigate the involvement of the GABRG2 gene in the genetic susceptibility to this epileptic syndrome.
Study investigated the pathogenesis of febrile seizures by determining how the gamma2 subunit mutation, R177G, altered GABAA (show GABRg1 ELISA Kits) receptor biogenesis and physiological properties
Study shows that the down-regulation of the gamma2 subunit of postsynaptic GABAARs in NG2 (show Vcan ELISA Kits) cells that accompanies the postnatal switch from synaptic to extrasynaptic GABAergic transmission between interneurons and these cells in the barrel cortex
Dendritic spine abnormalities of Gabrg2+/- mice suggest association of functional defects in glutamatergic transmission with the established anxious-depressive phenotype of these mice
KIF21B (show KIF21B ELISA Kits) participates in the delivery of GABAAR transport vesicles into dendrites.
The study demonstrates the molecular and functional diversity of the GABAAR system within the mouse colon providing a framework for developing GABAAR-based therapeutics in GI disorders.
these findings suggest that gephyrin (show GPHN ELISA Kits) may be a key factor in BDNF (show BDNF ELISA Kits)-dependent GABAAR regulation in the amygdala.
This study showed that oscillatory activity in thalamic circuits is under the control of inhibition that involves gamma2 subunit-independent GABA-ARs (show SLURP1 ELISA Kits)
Tyrosine phosphorylation of GABAA (show GABRg1 ELISA Kits) receptor gamma2-subunit regulates tonic and phasic inhibition in the Lateral Geniculate Body in mice.
Expression of the gamma2-subunit distinguishes synaptic and extrasynaptic GABA(A) receptors in NG2 (show Vcan ELISA Kits) cells of the hippocampus
The results suggested that juvenile and adult stressor experiences elicit variations of GABAA (show GABRg1 ELISA Kits) receptor subunit expression that are region-specific as well as sexually-dimorphic. Stressful events during the juvenile.
This study demonistrated that Gabrg2 gene expression in mouse dorsal raphe nucleus
This gene encodes a gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptor. GABA is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammlian brain, where it acts at GABA-A receptors, which are ligand-gated chloride channels. GABA-A receptors are pentameric, consisting of proteins from several subunit classes: alpha, beta, gamma, delta and rho. Mutations in this gene have been associated with epilepsy and febrile seizures. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified for this gene.

text: (Updated from 11:13 a.m. EDT with settlement prices.)NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Gold prices traded sideways Friday as the U.S. dollar strengthened a day after a big drop. Gold for December delivery settled up 20 cents to $1,619.40 an ounce at the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange. The gold price traded as high as $1,623 and as low as $1,613.30 an ounce, while the spot price was up $2, according to Kitco's gold index. "I don't think you're going to see a whole lot of action until you get through the summer, past Labor Day weekend," said Oliver Pursche, co-portfolio manager at GMG Defensive Beta Fund. "There just doesn't seem to be enough activity in any investment arena right now to drive prices in a meaningful fashion." Silver prices for September delivery dipped 21 cents to $28.00 an ounce, while the U.S. dollar index was jumping 0.25% to $82.60. The Federal Open Market Committee releases its minutes next Wednesday, and central bankers meet at the Jackson Hole summit on Aug. 31 and Sept. 1, but some analysts aren't optimistic about any Fed stimulus. "I don't think we're going to hear much as far as confirmation of any stimulus out of the Fed come Jackson Hole," said Steve Ayer, managing director of HighTower. "How can they? The stock market is right at its high, the election is a few months away." Gold prices didn't receive a massive bump earlier this week after the 13F filings of billionaire investors George Soros and John Paulson showed each significantly increased their positions in the precious metal. While those investments suggest both Soros and Paulson expect some form of Fed stimulus is on the horizon, investors Jeffrey Vinik and Eric Mindich both dumped their holdings in SPDR Gold Trust. For now, gold appears to be stuck in a range until central banks signal any policy changes. Platinum for October delivery charged higher Friday by $37.90 to settle at $1,473.10 an ounce. A Lonmin platinum mine grabbed attention Thursday after South African police killed 34 workers who were staging an illegal strike. Shares of the United Kingdom-based mining company dropped 1.2% on Friday at the FTSE. "The South African Police Service (SAPS) have been in charge of public order and safety on the ground since the violence between competing labor factions erupted over the weekend," Lonmin Chairman Roger Phillimore said in a statement. "It goes without saying that we deeply regret the further loss of life in what is clearly a public order rather than labor relations associated matter." Gold-mining stocks were mostly lower Friday. AngloGold Ashanti ( AU) was dropping 2.3%, while Barrick Gold ( ABX) was retreating 0.6%. Among other mining stocks, Yamana Gold ( AUY) and Newmont Mining ( NEM) were down 0.6% and 0.8%, respectively. -- Written by Joe Deaux in New York. >Contact by Email. Follow @JoeDeaux
