ASYMCA San Diego
Our Mission:
The Armed Services YMCA San Diego enhances the lives of service members and their families in mind, body, and spirit through programs and services that are relevant to the unique challenges of military life.
Organization Summary:
The Armed Services YMCA San Diego (ASY San Diego) was established in 1920 with the focus of making military life easier for local active duty military members and their families. For over 90 years, the ASYMCA has evolved and expanded to best meet the growing and changing needs of military families by offering free programs for youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility. Currently, we serve active-duty members and their families each month, primarily targeting our local population of enlisted (E1-E7) service members. Through all of our programs, the ASY San Diego works to make a significant, positive impact in the lives of our military men, women, and especially children. The ASY San Diego provides access to programs and services at two sites, our Murphy Canyon Military Housing site and our Naval Medical Center San Diego site. The Armed Services YMCA was designated as an "Exceptional" Charity in 2012 by Charity Navigator and is funded by community support.
Our Impact:
The ASY San Diego strives to give back to military personnel and their family members to honor all the brave and serious sacrifices they make for each one of us every day. We do this through a variety of strategic programs that assist our families in overcoming the challenges of military life.
- Healthy Living programs, such as fun and free family bonding special events, urgent and ongoing warrior care at Naval Medical Center, and free in-home clinical counseling for junior enlisted families
- Youth Development programs that are designed specifically for military children to help them learn to be confident, excel in school, and embrace the important role they have as members of a military family.
- Social Responsibility programs, such as volunteer opportunities for the community and for active duty members that strengthen their professional development, connect them to the greater San Diego community and provide positive choices.
Blue Star Families
Blue Star Families is a non-partisan, non-profit organization created and run by real military families. We are committed to supporting one another through the unique challenges of military service regardless of rank, branch of service or physical location, and empowering military family members to create their best personal, professional and family life.
Military families are spread all over the world - so Blue Star Families implements both online and chapter based outreach, initiatives, and events. Since its inception in 2008, BSF has grown and adapted to fit the needs of our community through incredibly impactful programs like Books on Bases, Blue Star Museums and Blue Star Spouse Networks. Spouses, children and other family members are pillars of strength but are not impervious to the stressors of more than a decade of war. Here are just a few of the ways BSF buoys the milfam community:
- Blue Star Spouse Networks: Facebook-based networks for spouses in the health care, education, and entrepreneurial fields.
- Blue Star Museums and Blue Star Theatres: Free and discounted entrance to exhibits and shows throughout the larger arts community.
- Books on Bases: Fostering lifelong literacy in military children.
- Resume Builder: Helping spouses translate volunteer experience into relevant work history.
Blue Star Families also encourages the larger civilian population to lend a hand through Operation Honor Corps and Operation Appreciation - simple but powerful ways to say thank you to service members and the family who stands beside them.

Operation Rebound
Challenged Athletes Foundation's® (CAF) Operation Rebound® (OR) program strengthens the mental and physical well-being of veterans and first responders with permanent physical injuries by providing them opportunities to use sports and fitness to re-integrate into our communities and by empowering them through sports to lead productive, active and fulfilling lives.

CAF works with resident prosthetists, recreational therapists, and medical hold unit commanders to provide opportunities for physical training that is in compliance with discrete rehabilitation programs and applicable military regulations.
- Sports Clinics are held throughout the year at military medical centers and other locations in the community. Expert coaches and CAF elite athletes provide instruction and mentorship to introduce beginner athletes to a range of sports including bicycling, handcycling, running, swimming, basketball and other sports.
Got Your Six
In 2011, ServiceNation hosted a convening of every major studio, network, talent agency, and guild in the entertainment industry to discuss veterans' issues. The result was a year-long discussion between many partners in Hollywood, at the Clinton Global Initiative domestic convening, and with the White House and other government entities. In a little more that a year, these conversations evolved into an unprecedented awareness and activation campaign led by the entire industry and aimed at changing the conversation in our country regarding veterans and military families. Got Your 6 - a campaign named for a military term meaning "I've got your back"-intends to take significant steps toward bridging the growing civilian-military divide in this country.
More than one million military service members will reenter civilian life over the next five years. In order to best inspire these individuals to success, the campaign works to ensure that they return home as civic assets and leaders who will reinvigorate our communities. Many Americans do not feel connected or comfortable with military and veteran culture, nor do they know what steps to take so show their respect and appreciation of those who serve our country in uniform. Got Your 6 focuses on the activation of the American public through six key pillars of veteran reintegration: jobs, education, health, housing, family, and leadership.
The entertainment industry is the catalyst for the campaign's message. Utilizing a multidimensional communications strategy, the industry leverages grass roots work being done by top-tier non-profits in communities across the country. This is a true collaborative effort that will use the best-in-class entities from the public, private, and non-profit sectors.
The campaign is run by an independent entertainment industry steering committee with one representative from every major studio, broadcast network, cable group, talent agency, and guild. To lead the activation campaign and serve as subject matter experts this group is partnering with America's best non-profits and coordinating with top government entities.

Helping Paws Military Appreciation Program
Helping Paws Military Appreciation Program was founded in October of 2013 by Craig J. Mohnacky, DVM, who wanted to give back to the San Diego community. Since its inception, Helping Paws, with the help of Mohnacky Animal Hospitals, has performed over 1000 no cost spay and neuter procedures to the San Diego military community.
Our mission is to give military members peace of mind concerning their pets and to strengthen the human/pet bond. We provide veterinary services that military families otherwise might find challenging to afford.
Helping Paws is a charitable fund open to active military and wounded warriors. To promote healthy pet lifestyles, we provide no cost spay and neuter procedures through our online voucher system. At our three hospitals we provide financial assistance to military members for help with their pet's unexpected or urgent health care needs. It is our mission that no pet should ever be surrendered to a shelter or worse yet, euthanized due to an economic consideration by any military family.
Ultimately, our goals with Helping Paws are:
- To grant financial assistance to military members for help with their pet's emergency care needs
- To promote healthy pet lifestyles, including spay and neuter, vaccinations, and micro-chipping.
- To connect with citizens and businesses in our community to ensure Helping Paws is a resource to military families.
In June 2015, Dr Mohnacky was recognized with the Channel 10 Leadership award for the Helping Paws Program. This award recognizes San Diego businesses that promote leadership by making San Diego a better place to live.

Operation Bigs
Big Brothers Big Sisters of San Diego County's Operation Bigs is a one-to-one mentoring program for military children, the first of its kind in the nation. Mentoring provides an extra layer of support to local military families. The military lifestyle often presents many challenges for children and families such as frequent relocation, school transitions, separation from extended family, increased responsibility coupled with a sense of loss when a parent deploys and the physical and psychological stress faced when a parent returns from war. The program joins children with parents in the military to volunteer Bigs who are in the military, retired or civilian.
Since its launch in 2004, Operation Bigs has served more than 1,400 Navy and Marine Corps children at 8 sites throughout San Diego County and inspired the expansion of over 30 sites across the country. The need for caring, committed mentors to support the children of those who defend our country remains urgent.

Our Military Kids
Our Military Kids families are our neighbors, and they need our help. These are people we run into at the grocery store, parents we see at school functions and on the sports field. Reserve and National Guard parents make enormous sacrifices for our country every day. We need to minimize the sacrifices their children must make back at home.
To date, Our Military Kids has never denied a grant to an eligible child, thanks to the generosity of foundations, corporations and thousands of individuals. You are essential to helping the many children in need of extra support and attention during a parent's deployment or recovery from a severe injury.
Only 3.2% of 2010 revenue was spent to cover administrative and fundraising expenses for the Our Military Kids program. More than 95 cents of every dollar you donate will pay for the activities of a National Guard, Reserve, or Wounded Warrior child.
Our Military Kids cannot be successful without you. We appeal to you to join us in our mission of recognizing and supporting military children. Please be assured that your kindness and financial support has a significant and transformative impact. You can make a profound difference in the life of our littlest warriors - our military kids.
Reboot Workshop
About National Veterans Transition Services, Inc. (NVTSI): NVTSI is an emerging San Diego-based 501(c)3 organization dedicated to assisting veterans in adjusting to civilian life and securing meaningful employment by combining best-practice performance social solutions and techniques. The organization provides returning service members and veterans with a social and career transition workshop program called REBOOT. NVTSI was established by a group of retired high-ranking Naval and Marine Corps officers and workforce development professionals who seek to fill a tremendous gap in the continuum of veteran services. Reboot is an innovative three-week workshop provided by the National Veterans Transition Services, Inc. (NVTSI) that helps veterans ease back into civilian life.
San Diego is home to the nation's largest number of veterans returning from wartime duty. Each year, about 28,000 veterans in San Diego leave the military - 200,000 nationwide. With the conflict in Iraq and Afghanistan winding down, numbers leaving the service will increase. Statistics show that ex-military suffer from high jobless rates. Reboot gives San Diego's veterans the tools to combat these challenges and to succeed. For more information, visit http://www.nvtsi.org.
Semper Fi Fund
Mission Statement: The Semper Fi Fund is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit set up to provide immediate financial support and quality of life solutions to our nation's injured and critically ill service members of the U.S. Armed Forces and their families. We direct urgently needed resources to post-9/11 service members within 24-72 hours of request, as well as provide continuous assistance for those servicemen and women with perpetuating needs. The Semper Fi Fund is forever grateful to each of our supporters who share in our ongoing mission of "serving those who preserve our freedom."
Organization Summary: Since its inception in 2004, the Semper Fi Fund has transformed the lives of thousands of wounded service members and their families, providing millions of dollars in assistance. The basic ideal that drives our efforts is simple: as much as our nation's heroes have sacrificed, they deserve the best care and support available in their hour of need. Injuries are often severe, and the road to recovery can be long and costly. Beyond the staggering costs of hospitalization and treatment are related expenses, which pile up quickly: childcare, plane fare, other travel expenses, adaptive housing or transportation, specialized equipment, and more. The list goes on, and so do the bills, often stretching a family's budget to the breaking point. That's where we come in.
Our organization offers support in a variety of ways: Family Support, Specialized & Adaptive Equipment, Adaptive Housing, Education and Career Transition Assistance, Post Traumatic Stress and Traumatic Brain Injury Support, America's Fund, Team Semper Fi, and more. Each area of support has a specific focus for directing assistance, with the overall goal of providing quality of life solutions to our nation's injured servicemen and women.
The Semper Fi Fund's streamlined structure keeps overhead very low because we realize that every dollar saved can be put to better use elsewhere. The American Institute of Philanthropy has given us an "A+" rating and Charity Navigator has given us their highest rating of "Four Stars." The Semper Fi Fund is committed to assisting service members throughout their recovery, which for many, is a lifetime. It may be tempting to think that once our servicemen and women are home, the work is finished. But the reality is, getting our veterans back to health is a process, and a lengthy one at that; this is why the Semper Fi Fund will be always be there to help our nation's heroes on their roads to recovery.
Please join us in our mission of "serving those who preserve our freedom." To learn more, please visit www.semperfifund.org, find us on Facebook, and follow us on Twitter.
Socks for Heroes
Ask a Combat Marine what the three most important things they need to stay on mission and they'll tell you, their rifle, ammo and socks. Clean socks mean the difference between being able to keep up the operational tempo necessary to stay on mission. Socks for Heroes mission is to make sure that the Marines have this all important commodity. The Socks for Heroes project was started by the Parents of Lcpl Donald Hogan, posthumously awarded the Navy Cross, who was killed in Afghanistan in 2009. Carla and Jim Hogan have shipped over 200,000 pairs of socks to Marine Infantry Battalions in a little over a year. You can help them help our Marines. To see how you can help, go to their website at http://scmsg.org/sponsors, or their Facebook page at http://facebook.com/socksforheroes.
If you are a Marine Infantryman in Afghanistan, you have a constant reality, you are spending an awful long time on your feet. Two five hour patrols a day, wading through canals, and tromping long miles through the desert in 120 degree heat are common in Helmand Province. What is not common is an opportunity to replenish clean socks. That is where a small, San Clemente based Charity, Socks for Heroes comes in. Socks for Heroes ships inexpensive disposable socks to Marine Infantry units who spend most of their time "outside the wire". In a little over a year, they have shipped over 100,000 pairs to over a dozen Marine units. Started by Gold Star Parents, Carla and Jim Hogan, to honor their son, Lcpl Donald Hogan, who was posthumously awarded the Navy Cross for his actions that led to his death in August of 2009. They honor his memory by caring for his Marine Brothers wherever they serve in harms way. You can learn more about Socks for Heroes by going to their website at http://scmsg.org/sponsors.

The Mission Continues
The Mission Continues is the only national nonprofit organization challenging post-9/11 veterans to rebuild a sense of purpose through community service. Many veterans struggle to find the same purpose at home as they found in the mission, camaraderie and structure of the military. The Mission Continues does not offer charity; rather, we challenge returning service members to utilize their tremendous skills and leadership to continue serving our country at home. Through service, veterans find renewed strength and purpose while building stronger communities. Our mission is fueled by a deep belief that our veterans are assets whose leadership is needed now more than ever here at home.
The Mission Continues awards community service fellowships to post-9/11 veterans, empowering them to transform their own lives by serving others and directly impact their communities. Mission Continues Fellows serve for six months at a local nonprofit organization addressing key educational, environmental or social issues. Each Fellow works to achieve one of three outcomes at the conclusion of the fellowship: full-time employment, pursuit of higher education or a permanent role of service.
At the culmination of the fellowship, each Fellow will lead a service project in his/her community, bringing veterans and civilians together in days of service nationwide. These projects are bridging the military-civilian divide, allowing veterans to feel more connected to their communities and helping civilians gain a better understanding of and appreciation for our men and women in uniform.
Want to join our ranks as a Fellow or a supporter? Learn more at www.missioncontinues.org.
The mission of the local USO San Diego is to enhance the quality of life of the U.S. Armed Forces personnel and their families worldwide and to create a cooperative relationship between U.S. military communities and involved or supporting civilian communities.
The goal of USO San Diego is to extend a sense of comfort in an unfamiliar place to all active duty military and their families. More than 250 volunteers give their time to assist in staffing both centers. These volunteers aid in ensuring American service men and women feel at home in San Diego, whether traveling or stationed here.
We are a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization, which receives virtually no government funding and minimal funding from our parent organization. USO San Diego is funded primarily through the generosity of individuals, businesses, organizations, and foundations within the San Diego community. The funds raised remain right here in San Diego to directly support programs and vital services we provide to our military and their families.
Our Downtown and C. Neil Ash Airport Centers are open 365 days a year and serve more than 190,000 patrons annually. USO San Diego continues to offer support and entertainment to those who serve our nation with the same enthusiasm that it did at its opening in 1941.

United Through Reading
Founded in 1989, United Through Reading is the nation's first nonprofit to promote the read-aloud experience for separated military families. United Through Reading offers deployed parents the opportunity to be video-recorded reading storybooks to their children which eases the stress of separation, maintains positive emotional connections and cultivates a love of reading. At nearly 200 recording locations worldwide, Marines, Soldiers and Sailors, National Guard, Reservists and Airmen, can read to their children from units on ships, in tents in Afghanistan, on bases and installations around the world and at 70 USO centers worldwide. Over one and a half million military parents, spouses and children have benefited from the program since its inception.
"Military commands love United Through Reading," said Sally Ann Zoll, Ed. D., chief executive officer of United Through Reading. "It minimizes deployment miles and helps military personnel parent from afar. The reassurance of seeing the deployed mommy or daddy reading a storybook provides immense relief to the child and the spouse at home. The morale of the whole family is boosted!" Through this unique program, which is available directly through military commands and at numerous USOs throughout the world, deployed military service members get a chance to share their love and support, while children receive essential communication while building literacy skills.
United Through Reading recently received its fifth consecutive Four-Star rating from Charity Navigator, the nation's leading charity rating agency. Only 4% of charities have received five consecutive four-star ratings, the highest awarded rating from Charity Navigator. We're proud to be among them.
In December 2011, United Through Reading kicked off its support of First Lady Michelle Obama and Dr. Jill Biden's Joining Forces Initiative with a holiday party at the Naval Observatory in Washington DC. We are proud to be a part of this comprehensive national initiative to mobilize all sectors of society to give our service members and their families the opportunities and support they have earned. Our commitment to Joining Forces is to double our support of the Army and National Guard over the next two years.

Disaster Assistance
You are here
If we want economic growth, we must anticipate increased traffic. Proper planning, maintenance of existing roads and construction of new roads will help reduce travel times and increase public safety.
Social Security
Since 1935, Social Security has provided retirement security for Americans. It's important that today's seniors receive the benefits they have earned and that solutions are sought to strengthen the Social Security system for future generations.
Science and Technology
Technology is the key that will unlock a brighter future for us all. As a Member of the House Committee on Science and Technology, I am committed to ensuring that innovation continues to expand and enrich our lives without harming our privacy or security.
Energy and Gas Prices
I believe that our nation's energy plan should strengthen our economy, lower consumer prices, reduce our dependency on foreign oil-producing nations, and protect the environment. Our economy and way of life demands an energy policy that not only meets today's needs but prepares us for future needs.
It is important to provide our nation's students with an opportunity to receive a quality education. There are few things more valuable to an individual than a good education and few things more valuable to a community than educated residents. And, I know that a generous financial aid system is essential to providing access to higher education for students.
Economy and Jobs
Much of our economic crisis today is rooted in misguided policies of the past. Permitting home mortgages with nothing down was a disaster waiting to happen when home prices fell. Unfortunately, all the bad mortgages and the resulting credit crisis have dragged down our economy and threatened the financial well-being of all Americans.
Like many Americans, I am concerned about the environment. The Earth has undergone tremendous change in the past and is experiencing similar change now. Climate change has the potential to impact agriculture, ecosystems, sea levels, weather patterns, and human health.
Health Care
Skyrocketing costs have crept into our health care system, creating a lot of uncertainty about the future of health care for employers, working Americans, and the uninsured. Americans need more, not fewer, choices for something as important and personal as health care.
Congressman Smith was selected by his colleagues to serve as the Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, where he helps shape legislation on such subjects as terrorism, crime, immigration, bankruptcy, civil liberties, constitutional amendments, and patents and copyrights.
Job Creation
We know what will help create jobs in this country –lifting the burden of regulations that is strangling small businesses.
Homeland Security

In the past four years, the gross national debt ballooned from $8.67 trillion to $15.2 trillion. Debt of this level will stifle our economic growth. The solution for reviving our economy is straightforward: cut job-destroying government spending to allow employers to create jobs.

When not contributing to PR Daily, he's Minister of Propaganda at Proper Propaganda, which allows him to indulge a strange love of Communist art (in case you wondered, though born and raised in Soviet Quebecistan, Jackson likes free markets).
He's got another gig as Vice President of Marketing and Community at Fait ici, where takes orders from his better half (stop laughing, you do, too).
Finally, because he wants to burnout before his fortieth birthday, Jackson is also Director of Communications for a large charity event producing company that raises lots of cash to fight cancer.
Prior to these positions, he worked in politics in issue management, meaning that he knows a thing or two about grownups acting like babies, innuendo and smear tactics.

Syrian troops advance against rebels in Damascus
DAMASCUS, Syria (AP) — Government troops fired tank shells and artillery in heavy clashes between Syrian forces and rebels Sunday on the edge of Damascus, where the military has been pushing its offensive to retake key districts that have been in opposition hands for months.
The Syrian army has seized the momentum in the civil war over the past three months, wresting back territory lost to rebel forces and solidifying its hold over contested areas, particularly on the fringes of Damascus. Two of the embattled districts are Jobar and Qaboun, from which rebels frequently launch mortar rounds on the heart of the capital.
A Syrian military commander said forces loyal to President Bashar Assad have recaptured 60 percent of Jobar, south of Qaboun, and were trying to retake the rest. The commander talked to reporters Sunday during a military escorted tour of Jobar organized by the Information Ministry. His claim could not be independently verified.
An Associated Press reporter on the tour saw widespread destruction that pointed to heavy fighting in the neighborhood. Marble tile factories were destroyed. Reporters made their way in the devastated area by climbing through holes knocked in walls because of warnings of rebel snipers in the area.
At least two bodies, apparently those of rebel gunmen, lay on the floor of a bunker described by the official as a "terrorist" hideout.
"The army is advancing rapidly in Jobar ... the area will be secured in the next few days according to a well-studied plan," the commander said. He declined to be named in line with regulations.
Jobar is near the road linking Damascus with its eastern suburbs known as Eastern Ghouta. Rebels have been using the road to transport weapons and other supplies to the capital, the seat of Assad's power.
The commander said the Jobar-Qaboun axis was important to "cleanse Ghouta from terrorist groups."
Assad's government routinely describes the rebels fighting to overthrow him as terrorists playing out a foreign conspiracy hatched by Israel, the United States and some of its Arab allies in the region, like Qatar and Saudi Arabia.
During the tour of Jobar, reporters were taken to a hideout the army said it seized a day earlier after killing 30 rebels and their leader there. Reporters were shown RPG mortar rounds and explosive devices, as well as an alleged chemical material with a strong odor.
Arabic graffiti on the walls read: "The al-Tawhid Brigade," and "the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant" — names of militant groups fighting to topple Assad.
Sunday's tour came as Syria's main Western-backed opposition group claimed that 200 civilians were trapped in a mosque in Qaboun as fighting raged outside between rebels and Assad's army. It warned that thousands of civilians in Qaboun could be "massacred" by Assad's army as armored vehicles and elite forces move in.
The U.K.-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, which relies on a network of activists on the ground, said dozens of people were held captive Saturday by regime forces in the basement of the al-Omari mosque, but they were able to escape when clashes broke out between rebel and regime forces in the perimeter of the mosque, and the troops retreated.
It said 13 people, including seven fighters, died in the shelling of Qaboun Sunday.
"They (troops) are using tanks and artillery and are trying to break into Qaboun. The shelling is very intense and there is a lot of smoke," said an activist in the area, speaking via Skype on condition of anonymity, fearing retribution.
"This is day 26 of a bombing campaign, and they still haven't been able to break Qaboun," he said.
Later Sunday, a powerful bomb explosion rocked the Deir Atiyeh town north of Damascus, killing and wounding a number of people, activists said. The bomb went off near a police station in a densely populated area, but most of the casualties were civilians, according to the Observatory and the Military Council for Damascus and its Suburbs, a rebel group.
In Washington, U.S. officials said Israel targeted advanced anti-ship cruise missiles near Syria's principal port city in an airstrike earlier this month, according to a report by The New York Times. It cited the officials as saying the attack on July 5 near Latakia targeted advanced Russian-made Yakhont missiles that Russia sold to Syria.
There was no immediate comment from Assad's government, whose key political ally and arms supplier is Russia.
Asked about the reports on the CBS-TV show "Face the Nation," Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu refused to confirm or deny Israeli involvement.
He insisted that he will not allow "dangerous weapons" to reach Lebanon's Hezbollah militants.
Halaby reported from Amman, Jordan. Associated Press writers Zeina Karam in Beirut and Josef Federman in Jerusalem contributed to this report.

It seems like the worst time of year to clean up your credit. But the holidays offer surprising opportunities to polish your record, boost your score and become more credit-savvy for 2010.
- Say NO to store cards. The lure of 15% off at the register is tempting—and terrible for your credit. Every credit inquiry dings your score. That's not what you want for Christmas.
- Spend more cash. A big part of your score is how much credit you have available. If you carry a balance, it should be less than 25-30% of your available credit. Spending cash this season will help to keep your debt ratio down—and nudge your score up.
- Clean house for the New Year. It's almost 2010, have you looked at your credit reports yet? They're free at the official website, www.annualcreditreport.com. The majority of reports contain errors, so a quick clean-up (you can submit disputes online) is the fastest way to better credit, and a financially happy and healthy New Year.

DescriptionIn Super Hang-On you race a motorcycle around the world, completing each section of track within a time limit. There are other bikes on the road, but beating this is not important, so they can be thought of as moving obstacles. Each continent is a different difficulty level: Africa is beginner, Asia is junior, the Americas are senior, and Europe is expert.
This is a very simple and straightforward game, viewed from behind the bike in 2D (so the screen does not tilt with the bike). The right/left controls are steering, and up/down are gear changes. Your cycle is always moving, and your speed strictly depends on the gear you are in, although contact or running off the road slows the bike down.
The Sega Genesis version features "Original mode" in which the player participates in racing tournaments, hires mechanics, upgrades his bike. This mode uses passwords allowing players to continue a previously played game.

text: |The Rusco 1-1/2-500STCR-F Chemical Resistant Polyester Sediment Trapper System is designed to remove virtually all types of sediment, including shale, shell, debris, pipe scale, and sand/grit (course, fine, and very fine). The amount of sediment removed by the Rusco filter screen will depend on the micron rating of the filter screen. Smaller micron rated filter screens will remove smaller particles of sediment from your water. By removing larger sediment particles from your water, you are preserving the life of appliances and filter cartridges that may be installed after the Rusco sediment filter system. The Rusco sediment filter uses centrifugal separation technology to filter sediment from water. This filter is made with a Chemically Resistant Screen filter. The Rusco Chemically Resistant Sediment Filter is made by thermoplastic construction and has high chemical resistance. The systems have stainless steel reinforced 3/4" pipe connection. The Rusco Chemically Resistant filter screen is durable, cleanable and reusable. TheChemically Resistant Filterscan be used for Hydronic Heating Systems, Industrial Heat Exchangers, Cooling Tower Make Up & Evaporator Water, Domestic or Commercial Hot Water Heaters, and Industrial (Machine Coolant and Cutting Fluids). Screen Mesh Size of the device is 500 and the Micron Rating s 30. The Inlet/Outlet Pipe Size dimension is 1.5" and the Maximum Temperature is 200 degrees F. (93C) at 40 PSI Minimum Flow Rate For Spin-Down Action is 1 GPM and the Maximum Flow Rate is 25 GPM. The Body Material is made of Glass filled polypropylene with 304 stainless steel supporting ring and the Cover Material is Chemical and Heat Resistant HP Polymer. The Screen Material is Glass filled polypropylene and 304 stainless steel screen; Flush Valve is CPVC and the O-Rings are EPDM. Use approved solvent cement for gluing PVC connections. Follow gluing instructions on glue container. It is recommended that the clear cover be removed from the pvc body prior to the gluing process. Any excess glue that comes in contact with the clear cover will damage it. The filter screen should be replaced every 6-12 months depending on your water usage and water quality. The Rusco filter screens should be cleaned every few months. No tools are required for cleaning. The primary method of cleaning the Rusco filter is purging separated solids through the flush valve while the filter is under system pressure. The purging process can be done manually with the flush valve or automated with our optional Automatic Flush Valve. The filter element may need to be removed and cleaned. To remove the filter element, turn off the water supply, drain water pressure, unscrew the clear cover and remove the filter element. Wash off collected sediment by spraying with water. Remove fine particles wedged in the screen with a soft brush. Apply silicone grease to o-rings if needed and reassemble. Hand tighten only.

Kathy Griffin's Season Opens With Behind-the-Scenes Look at Law & Order: SVU
My Life on the D List returned last night and the show dived right into Kathy's foray into "serious acting." The cameras shed insight to her girl-on-girl kiss with Mariska Hargitay and highlights Kathy hanging out on the SVU set.
Kathy had been worried about running into Mariska Hargitay because of an accident that happened long ago. When Kathy was Mariska's teacher at Groundlings in LA, Mariska fell to the ground during a trust-fall exersize. Here, Kathy reads a selection from her book that recalls the incident.
Kathy decides it would be very "A List" to invite her costar, Christopher Meloni, into her dressing room to rehearse a scene. Unfortunately for Detective Stabler, Kathy has chosen a kissing scene.
After her Law and Order: SVU taping came to a close, Kathy visits Liza Minelli to thank her for the acting advice she'd given prior to the gig. During this meeting, Kathy notices that Liza's laugh is unique and very contagious.
After everything was shot, Kathy hijacked Ice T and a camera crew to make a funny SVU parody.
The final "D List" moment of the episode came when Kathy's big lesbian kiss with Mariska was cut from the show. Pouring salt on the wound was Maggie, who believed it to be Kathy's fault for being a bad kisser.

NRA Restaurant-Hotel-Motel Show 2007
The NRA Restaurant-Hotel-Motel Show delivers a menu of innovative new products and trends.
More than 74,000 restaurant and foodservice professionals and 2,140 exhibitors gathered in Chicago May 19-22 for the 88th annual National Restaurant Assn. (NRA) Restaurant-Hotel-Motel Show to check out innovative new products and trends and to mingle with celebrity chefs from all over the world.
According to a survey of more than 1,000 chiefs, conducted by the NRA, the hottest menu trends are bite-size desserts, organic and local produce, flatbread and bottled water. Cuisines at the top of the list include Asian appetizers, Mediterranean, Latin American, Pan-Asian, Brazilian/Argentinean, Thai, sushi and Cuban.
"The nation's 935,000 restaurants have long been the breeding ground for many of the world's best culinary artists," says William Anton, convention chairman. "America's fascination with all things food-related has opened new doors for these individuals to share their creativity and inspire chefs and home cooks everywhere."
At the show, one could rub elbows with Chefs Rick Bayless (Frontera Grill and Topolobampo), John Doherty (Waldorf-Astoria), Tom Douglas (five Seattle restaurants), Gale Gand (pastry guru at Tru), Thomas Keller (The French Laundry), Danny Meyer (Union Square Hospitality Group), Paul Prudhomme (K-Paul's Louisiana Kitchen), Marcus Samuelsson (Townhouse Restaurant Group), Harry Shapiro and Peyton Young (Harry's Roadhouse), Rick Tramonto (Tru and Osteria di Tramonto) and Ming Tsai (Blue Ginger).
Specialty sandwiches
As well as Cat Cora (America's first female Iron Chef), Steve Raichlen (host of PBS's "Barbecue University"), Juan-Carlos Cruz (host of Food Network's "Calorie Commando"), Art Smith (formerly Oprah's chef) and Sally James (Australian author of 12 cookbooks). Many attendees flocked to cooking demonstrations by former White House Executive Chef Walter Scheib and watched the international teams competing at the American Culinary Classic. Chefs from the Research Chefs Assn. also were on hand with advice on new menu items.
Unlike other food shows, which are tightening their belts, NRA seems to expand every year. With 2007 projected sales of $537 billion, up 5 percent, the restaurant industry will garner 47.9 percent share of the food dollar and will dish up more than 70 billion meal and snack occasions.
One genuine news story was unveiled at the show: a joint venture between Chicago-based NutraSweet Co. and American Sugar Refining Co., parent of Domino sugar. Together they will develop and distribute a new line of sweeteners (their ingredients not specified) that will compete with Equal and Splenda.
At the show, trends appeared to be ethnic foods, organics, "green" environmentally friendly products and trans fat free oils, as well as products to ensure food safety.
Cadbury Schweppes featured bottled mojitos. Chef Bombay Inc. passed out samosas, tasty Indian pastries. Australian firms Outback Pride and Hoo Roo Foods offered a new line of Australian Harvest Bush Foods (created from desert limes, bush tomatoes and Tasmanian Mountain Pepperberries picked by indigenous Australians) and offered samples of barramundi (crusted with pepperberries and macadamias) and Wild Hibiscus Flowers in syrup in Champagne flutes. The bubbles cause the flowers, which are edible, to open. Bubbies Homemade Ice Cream and Desserts served Haupia, Okinawan sweet potato ice cream in a beautiful purple hue. Fresh Green Organic Garden sprouted a fascinating organic micro mix of arugula, mizuna, tendergreen, bull's blood, beet top, tatsoi and kohlrabi.
Hot new products
One thing that seemed to dominate this year's NRA Show was the abundance of flesh. Not necessarily the crowds, rather, the number of meat products. Meat is indeed still the center of the plate for most Americans. And not just meat, but well-seasoned meat-oriented items, such as barbecues and marinades, sauces and smokers.
Beverages also were flowing in great tidal waves, with the Coca Cola exhibit taking up one huge corner of the show floor to feature dozens of new products and acquisitions. (And this was just before the company announced its purchase of the success-story phenomenon, Vitaminwater.)
According to the NRA's 2007 Restaurant Industry Forecast, beverage trends include more bottled water, coffee, energy drinks and wine. Fair trade and organic coffees were on display everywhere. A unique coffee concept from Natfood SRL is Gin-co, containing ginseng extract. And a whopping 50 companies brewed up tea or products to make tea. Among them, Cooper Tea Co.'s Bazaa High Energy Tea containing 140mg of all-natural caffeine. Fully Loaded Tea rolled out superfruit tea with goji berries, seabuckthorn berries and lingonberries.
Australian company Madura Tea Estates introduced Green Tea and Papaya Leaf blend and showcased its line of kosher-certified black, green and herbal teas. They are free of tannic acid and suitable for people who have undergone gastrointestinal surgery. Australia's Brookfarm takes the macadamia (cholestrerol free and the richest source of monounsaturates) to new levels with its vacuum-packed Oven Roasted Macadamia Nuts with Sea Salt, Oven Roasted Macadamia with Kashmiri Chili and Sea Salt and Oven Roasted Macadamia with Bush Pepper Spice and Sea Salt.
Honest Tea debuted Honest Kids, with less than half the sugar of other popular kids pouch drinks, and a full days' supply of vitamin C and Orange Mango with Mangosteen and Pomegranate White Tea with Açaí for adults. Numi Organic Tea introduced Gen Mai Cha (toasted rice green tea). Sugart Group rolled out iTea, a single serve tea wand that works like a tea infuser. And you can sip for kids with the Tea District's Children's Tribute Citrus Green Tea. A percentage of the proceeds will go to the Children's Cancer Research Fund.

Thursday, 21 March 2013 12:32 PM
Cameron struck a surprise deal on Monday with his junior coalition partners, the Liberal Democrats, and the opposition Labour party, that will allow a new regulator to be set up with the powers to levy large fines on newspapers and oblige them to print prominent apologies where appropriate.
"UK holy mess with Internet unworkably included," Murdoch wrote on social media site Twitter on Thursday. "Cameron showing true colors shocking many supporters."
The Sun newspaper, which is owned by News Corp, of which Murdoch is the chairman and chief executive officer, also delivered a front-page critique on Thursday of the government's annual budget.
"Budget coverage as approved by the Ministry of Truth," it quipped, referring to the fictional Ministry of Truth in George Orwell's "1984" novel about a totalitarian state.
Cameron acted to strengthen regulation of the press following public anger over phone hacking by some tabloid newspapers, including Murdoch's now defunct News of the World, and after a judge-led inquiry showed how widespread it was.
He had previously said he didn't think it was necessary to enshrine the new system of self-regulation in law, but agreed to allow parliament to approve two amendments as part of a compromise, which he said strengthened the new system, but which press critics said undermined freedom of expression.
The system will be voluntary, but there will be strong financial incentives to encourage news media to opt into it.
Politicians from across the political spectrum backed it as did a group representing victims of newspaper phone hacking.
But some of the country's biggest press groups have signaled they are unhappy and are still considering how to respond, with some talking of a boycott, a legal challenge, or an alternative regulatory system. At least two news magazines have already said they won't be joining the new system.
British politicians have criticized Murdoch, a U.S. citizen of Australian origin, for seeking to influence politics through his still sizable media assets in Britain. But Murdoch has shrugged that off.
Earlier this month, he had dinner with the leader of the anti-European Union UK Independence Party, a party that has become an electoral headache for Cameron ahead of a 2015 general election.
Critics said at the time he was trying to encourage dissent in Cameron's Conservative party to destabilize the prime minister, whose leadership has come under pressure from within his own party.

Don't look now, but there's a new contest that's open to residents from all over the northern Niagara region.
Called appropriately "Niagara River Region USA - Autumn Beautiful," it's a celebration of the area's fall charm, says Aaron Dey of The Dory Trading Post in Youngstown.
Dey, originally from the Toronto area, is running this first-ever contest in cooperation with the Niagara River Region Chamber of Commerce and with the assistance of a number of community businesses. And to put it mildly, he's very upbeat on the northern Niagara region, its beauty, its charm and its people.
"We truly feel that not one community stands above the other when you talk about what makes the Niagara River Region great," says Dey. "The region as a whole offers so many wonderful things that make this one of the most wonderful places to live in the United States - a true treasure that we all appreciate. Not only because of the history and natural beauty - it's because of the people.
"And the talent represented by people in this region is incredible. This time of year just happens to be one of the most beautiful for the area and we want the talent that people have here to help express that. That is the genesis of the first 'Niagara River Region USA - Autumn Beautiful.' It's a contest to celebrate the natural beauty of the region during the fall season."
And it's open to residents from throughout the northern Niagara region - including the Lewiston and Sanborn areas, Youngstown, Porter, Ransomville and Olcott and Wilson.
"We picked the fall to showcase our contest because fall decorations go essentially from the beginning of October all the way through Thanksgiving in the United States," Dey notes.
As the popular Niagara River Region Chamber of Commerce Scarecrow Festival gets underway, area residents are invited to display their own autumnal creations outside their homes and vie for a chance to win some neat prizes, donated by area businesses. These include:
•A VIP family tour of the area's local national historical treasure, Old Fort Niagara, by Executive Director Robert Emerson. This tour includes areas of the fort not open to the public, including the secured archaeological finds, and the Fort Niagara Light House, which is only open to the public several weeks a year, says Dey.
•A custom-made art trophy and plaques awarded to the overall winner in each respective community by The Dory Trading Post.
Dey points out, "This beautiful, eclectic gift and art store supports and presents products from local artists, authors, photographers, vendors and historical venues of Western New York. We offer local-made and supplied gifts for all budgets."
•A "large" Niagara River Region gift package, courtesy of the Niagara River Region Chamber of Commerce.
•A $20 gift certificate for breakfast at the Village Diner located in Youngstown.
"This little restaurant has one of the best views of the Niagara River at the mouth of Lake Ontario. For years it has been serving great food to residents of the Niagara River Region and beyond," says Dey.
•A $30 gift certificate for lunch or dinner at Brennan's Irish Pub.
"For over 20 years, Gary Brennan has created a friendly atmosphere to watch sports, drink and enjoy great food," says Dey.
•A $30 gift certificate from Ransomville's Baker Farms, which furnished the autumn decorations adorning the east side of Main Street in Youngstown, Dey notes.
The contest is now open and residents are welcome to participate and submit photos of their creations to The Dory. Dey says that Halloween decorations are welcome in residents' displays, but judges will be looking for "inspired decorations that have more to do with the harvest, natural colors and what the Niagara Region is all about."
To enter, simply go to www.dorytradingpost.com/win and submit a picture of your residential display, along with your name, address, and contact information.

SEVIERVILLE, TENN. – The Coker men's golf team finished seventh at the 2014 Food Lion SAC Golf Championship on Tuesday (Apr. 15), with a three round team total of 950.
Freezing rain and damp weather conditions made the Sevierville Golf Club River Course a difficult task for the Coker men, who finished their final day with a team score of 330.
Josh Clay paced the Cobras throughout the tournament with a total score of 234, and a final round score of 85. Clay's score landed him in 15th place on the individual leader board. Will Bundy finished with a third round score of 82, which led him to a total of 235 for the tournament. Bundy's 235 was also good enough for a top-20 individual finish, as he earned the 18th spot. Christopher Fuga had the best day three score with a 77 and finished with a 238 total. Zane Price and Blake Baysden each finished with scores of 86 on day three, with Price finishing at 243 and Baysden a 252 for the tournament.

Pittsburgh's Presidential Inauguration Celebration
Washington, D.C., was not the only location for celebration during President Barack Obama's inauguration. Sterling Events' Evelyn Castillo and Heidi Norman threw an inaugural ball of their own in the newly sworn-in president's honor at the Pittsburgh Athletic Association's Pennsylvania room. The more than 100 attendees listened to the big band sounds of The Boilermaker Jazz Band as they watched the Washington, D.C., Inaugural Ball projected on a screen. Castillo remarked that the best part of the evening was, "Just seeing the joy on everybody's faces and hearing the 'ohhing and awwing' while everyone was watching the ball." Guests also brought non-perishable food donations for the Greater Pittsburgh Food Bank. Photography by Megan WylieRead More

WASHINGTON - The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) announced today that it has begun a review of its policy concerning the application of the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) to employer-sponsored retiree health benefit plans, such as those offering extended health care coverage in the form of a Medicare bridge (coverage until Medicare eligibility at age 65). That policy had provided that retiree health plans that are reduced or eliminated on the basis of age or Medicare-eligibility violate the ADEA.
The announcement came in the form of an official rescission of portions of the Commission's Compliance Manual Chapter on "Employee Benefits" that discuss the application of the ADEA to retiree health plans. The rescission was approved on August 17 by a unanimous vote of the Commission.
Explaining the decision to rescind and review the policy, the Commission's new Chair, Cari M. Dominguez, said: "The Commission has heard from a wide range of stakeholders including employer, employee, and labor groups expressing concerns about the impact of the now rescinded policy on the future of employer-sponsored retiree health benefits. The Commission shares these concerns, and our review will focus on the development of a new policy, consistent with the ADEA, that does not discourage employers from providing this valuable benefit."
Commission Vice Chair Paul M. Igasaki observed that the agency "must carefully craft a policy which protects the rights of older retirees but does not deter employers from providing health benefits to retirees in general."
The Commission will continue to vigorously pursue other types of age discrimination claims involving retirees, such as cash-based early retirement incentives that are reduced or eliminated with advancing age.
The full text of the rescission, as well as other information about the EEOC, is available on the agency's web site at www.eeoc.gov.
In addition to the ADEA, which prohibits discrimination against workers age 40 and older, the EEOC enforces Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits employment discrimination based on race, sex, religion, color, or national origin; the Equal Pay Act of 1963; Title I of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, which prohibits employment discrimination against individuals with disabilities; and portions of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 that prohibit disability discrimination in federal employment.
