Two of the NFL's top tight ends are lending their voices to support testing players for human growth hormone.
With the NFL and NFLPA meeting today to work on an HGH testing plan, Falcons tight end Tony Gonzalez and Cowboys tight end Jason Witten have both spoken up to say that testing should happen.
"I know I wouldn't have a problem with it because it levels the playing field," Gonzalez said on CNBC, in comments distributed to the media by the NFL. "Why wouldn't you want something like that? We have to give blood anyway so might as well test it for HGH."
Witten said he believe the league and the union will come up with a testing policy that makes sense for everyone.
"Doing it the proper way is what it's all about," Witten said, via the Dallas Morning News. "You want as level of a playing field as you can get. I think the union and the league have done a good job. It's probably taken a little bit longer than both sides wanted, but it'll be good to get that together and finalized for us."
The agreement between the league and the union hasn't been finalized yet, but comments like these indicate that HGH testing is coming soon, and many players are on board.

Research Interests
My research focuses on two distinct but related areas -- the nature and development of affectional bonds and the nature and development of same-sex sexuality. The common thread uniting these lines of research is my interest in the psychological and biobehavioral processes underlying intimate relationships and their influence on emotional experience and functioning over the life course.My primary research questions are as follows: (1) what are the basic psychological and biobehavioral processes underlying the formation and functioning of affectional bonds; (2) how are these processes related to sexual desire and sexual orientation; (3) what are the implications of affectional bonding for mental and physical well-being at different stages of life? In addressing these questions, I use a diverse range of research methods, including in-depth qualitative interviews, controlled social-psychophysiological experiments, and assessment of naturalistic interpersonal behavior.

Maxed Out: Take It For What It's Worth
We just finished watching Maxed Out, the recent documentary about the viperous evils of the credit industry. We agree with the basic premise: Underinformed debtors are getting taking advantage of. And the stories are horrific, with three different people driven to suicide because of debt. The doc does a good job of outlining the links from debtor, to bank, to debt collector, to government representatives. It's a nasty apparatus.
However, we found ourselves growing annoyed at the lack of appreciation for individual fiscal responsibility. At only one point that we can recall does one lady say something to the effect of, "yeah, I shoulda read the fine print."
Yes, you should have. The bank is not going to manage your money for you. If you live beyond your means, you will some day lose control of your life. You spend other people's money, they're going to want it back. Yes, the credit industry should have stricter screening measures (though the prospect seems unlikely as it's so much more profitable to not), but as long as you believe you are a victim of external circumstances, you will find yourself victimized.
Maxed Out is out on DVD, as well as Netflix's "Watch Now." — BEN POPKEN

November 20, 2012 16:30 ET
TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Nov. 20, 2012) - Liberty Silver Corp. (TSX:LSL) ("Liberty Silver" or the "Company") announced today the results of drilling of two stratigraphic holes, A12-19 and A12-20, to verify interpretations and test one of several geophysical anomalies developed as a result of a coupled gravity survey and induced polarization program completed earlier in 2012. The two reverse circulation holes, which were completed as part of the Company's preparation for future exploration drilling, totaled 2,580 feet in depth and are situated approximately 0.45 miles southeast of the historic Trinity open pit silver mine.
Gravity and induced polarization (IP) surveys were conducted by Magee Geophysical Services and Zonge Geosciences, Inc. both of Reno, Nevada. The geophysical program was designed and interpreted by Jim Wright of J.L. Wright Geophysics, Spring Creek, Nevada, and all historic and geophysical data has been assembled into a GIS data base. Interpretation of the data base by Mr. Wright identified several unexplored locales defined by high resistivity, chargeability, and gravity anomalies.
One such anomaly, a gravity low, is located southeast of the historic Trinity mine pit. This low is believed to be the response to a thick section of the hydrothermally altered rhyolite filling a graben structure similar to that of the Trinity silver mine resource area defined by the 2011 Trinity NI 43-101 report (available on SEDAR or on the Company website). Hydrothermally altered rhyolite hosts the bulk of the known silver mineralization discovered in the district to date.
The two drill holes, A12-19 (1,260 feet total depth) and A12-20 (1,320 feet total depth) are sited approximately 0.40 to 0.45 miles southeast of the pit, respectively, outside the documented resource area. Three shallow conventional rotary holes drilled in the 1980s by U.S. Borax & Chemical Corp. (the previous operator) are sited within a 500 foot radius to the west and south of the new holes. These historic holes host reportedly intersected weak silver mineralization from near surface to approximately 100 feet deep.
The two new holes were logged in detail and assayed on 5-foot intervals for the entire length of the holes. The holes confirm the gravity low does represent a deep graben structure filled with rhyolite because neither hole penetrated the contact with the underlying metasedimentary basement rocks. Based upon these two drill holes, the thickness of the prospective rhyolite section appears to be significantly thicker in this proposed graben structure relative to the resource area. Both holes are comprised of aphanitic rhyolite and a few rhyolite dikes. Hydrothermal alteration consists of weak to moderate argillic and sericitic clay alteration; weak and localized silicification and quartz veinlet development; and 1%-3% pyrite below the oxidation level at 560 feet.
Weak to moderate intensity epigenetic silver mineralization ranging from <1.0 to 49.1 parts per million ("ppm") silver is present throughout both drill holes with approximately 7% of the analyzed samples contain greater than 10 ppm silver. Hole A12-19 exhibited a range of silver values from <1.0 to 49.1 ppm with an average grade of 4.1 ppm (0.13 ounces per ton silver) throughout the entire hole; lead ranges from <100 to 2,979 ppm; and zinc from <100 to 11,000 ppm. In Hole A12-20, the silver content ranges from <1.0 to 43.1 ppm and averages 6.7 ppm (0.22 ounces per ton silver) throughout the length of the hole; lead ranges from <100 up to 3,878 ppm; and zinc from <100 to 10,200 ppm. Lead and silver are generally elevated above the oxidation boundary while zinc typically occurs in much higher concentrations below the oxidation level in the sulfide zone. Besides lead and zinc, several other pathfinder elements are associated with the elevated silver mineralization in these holes and include tin, copper and antimony. All of these elements are typically associated with silver mineralization in the NI 43-101 resource area and the silver ore mined by U.S. Borax in the 1980s from the Trinity open pit.
After extensive analysis that included assessment of historic geophysics, current geophysics and historic drilling, it has been determined that the new holes verify the results of geophysical modeling and interpretations south of the Trinity pit and confirm the presence of an apparent rhyolite-filled graben structure containing anomalous silver mineralization and associated key pathfinder elements. Although no potentially-economic silver intercepts were encountered, anomalous hydrothermal silver mineralization occurs throughout the entire length of the holes. These two holes, located at 0.40 and 0.45 miles southeast of the Trinity mine, have added confidence to extending the area of prospective exploration significantly to the southeast as previously identified (see Liberty Silver press release of May 22, 2012 "Liberty Silver Announces Completion of Successful Geophysical Program at Trinity Property").
Quality Assurance/Quality Control
All drill hole samples were analyzed using ICP-MS by American Assay Laboratories, Reno, Nevada. Analytical precision and accuracy were monitored by Minerals Exploration and Environmental Quality, Reno, Nevada, including the use of certified reference materials (standards), blank, and duplicate samples. A senior Liberty Silver geologist supervised drill hole sample collection by the driller, Boart Longyear, Elko, Nevada, at the drill site and chain of custody throughout the program was unbroken. Drill hole deviation surveys were done by IDS of Elko, Nevada.
Timothy Percival, CPG, of Reno, Nevada, a consultant to Liberty Silver, has reviewed the technical data in this press release and is a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101.

Source Naturals Life Force Multiple Energy Activator is scientifically Bio-Aligned to deliver essential cellular energy and balance to vital systems and organs. For lifelong support to your brain, skin, eyes, immune, circulatory, antioxidant and energy systems, take Source Naturals Life Force Multiple Energy Activator - and join the Wellness Revolution of preventive health care.Source Naturals Life Force Multiple Energy Activator Addresses the Following Body SystemsEnergyEvery second of our lives, billions of biochemical reactions are taking place in our bodies. New molecules are produced and spent as old ones are broken down and disposed of. Our metabolism is a massive, complex, yet perfectly orchestrated system of energy that enables us to survive and thrive. In almost every chemical reaction in the body, a spark is needed to energize the reaction. This spark is provided by adenosine tri-phosphate (ATP), the energy molecule. It is fundamental to our physiology. Amazingly, the body must produce half its own weight in ATP every day. It is a wise life strategy to give ATP production all the help we can. If this system is not working well we may feel tired and fatigued and our health may be affected. Within each cell there are typically 1,000-2,000 mitochondria. This organelle is the site of three connected, complex, multi-stage biochemical processes - the Glycolytic cycle, the Krebs cycle, and the Electron Transport chain - these produce ATP. Carbohydrates, fats and proteins are digested and enter the energy cycle to manufacture ATP. This requires a huge reserve of nutrients including B-vitamins, alpha-lipoic acid, CoQ10, and Acetyl L-Carnitine. Sugar RegulationOur modern, "on the go" diet of processed, unnatural junk foods is overwhelming our bodies. Drastic increases in refined carbohydrates and sugars have led to health concerns unheard of even a generation ago. Increased blood glucose can lead to excess body weight and inefficient use of insulin... all are part of a spiraling, self-perpetuating cycle that is highly challenging to health. Through this cycle, increased blood sugar can lead to reactions like inflammation and glycation. Excess inflammation is an underlying imbalance that can affect cells and tissues and lead to concerns about our health. Glycation occurs when excess blood sugar binds with protein to produce Advanced Glycation End-products (AGEs), compounds that impact healthy cells. Many nutritional supplements can increase insulin efficiency and help maintain blood sugar in a normal range.ImmuneDuring the Plague of the 14th century, one-third of the population of Europe died. The question is: why did the others live, even though they were also exposed to the Yersinia pestis bacteria? The answer may be the strength and responsiveness of their immune systems. The immune system is like an intelligent second brain with the unique ability to identify foreign compounds and to quickly produce the specific defenses needed to combat harmful invaders and protect us. The immune system uses a wide variety of cells and biochemicals located primarily in the blood stream and the gastrointestinal tract, such as T-cells, B-cells, macrophages, and Natural Killer cells. Anyone can significantly strengthen and improve the functionality of the immune system through nutrition, supplements and lifestyle modifications.Structure/Connective TissueOur bodies are a stunning organization of various types of connective tissues. In the form of cartilage and bones, they uphold our bodies; in the form of joints, they allow our mobility; in the form of epidermal tissues - the skin - they form the body's mass and protect us from and connect us to, our environment. As we age, many people experience calcium deficiencies and bone problems. Similarly, joint problems are among the most debilitating aspects of aging. Yet with the proper nutrients and lifestyle changes, the bones and joints can remain strong, flexible, and active well into old age. Likewise, healthy, beautiful skin is a matter of diet and nutrition: the skin should be nourished with fatty acids, antioxidants, and vitamins, and a nutritious diet gives the skin sufficient nutrients and antioxidants for protection.Cells/DNAIt is well known that our genes, consisting of DNA, hold the information codes for all of our unique traits, and they regulate all of the structure and function of our tissues and organs. Encoded in the DNA, and "turned on" by hormones or other messengers, are the mechanisms that produce the proteins, enzymes, and other compounds that the cell uses to carry out its differentiated functions. Even though each cell contains every gene for all bodily and mental functions, each cell has the ability to activate only those specific genes needed for that cell's specific function; the other genes remain silent or inactive. Various nutrients, plant extracts, and biochemical compounds can be seen as messengers. We can literally send instructions to our genes to perform healthy activities such as increase memory, burn fat, strengthen an immune response, or turn off gene expression that is detrimental to our health.Inflammation ResponseInflammation is for many an underlying biochemical imbalance that can lead to concerns about our health. Inflammation begins as a helpful part of the immune system's defense, but the problem for our health is when this natural defense process doesn't turn off. Because of various environmental triggers and lifestyle factors, such as pollution, stress, or nutrient-deficient junk food diets, the defense system stays on the attack, generating metabolic inflammation and damaging healthy cells and tissues. Our body goes to war with itself. The fire of inflammation, however, can be quenched with dietary, lifestyle and nutritional changes.Antioxidant DefenseFree radicals are unstable, destructive molecules with one missing, unpaired electron. In a process called oxidation, the same process that turns iron to rust, free radicals can impact cells as they steal electrons from healthy molecules, starting a cascade that ages the body and affects the body cell by cell, tissue by tissue. This process is halted with antioxidants. Antioxidants selflessly donate their electrons to stabilize free radicals and prevent their effects. Free radicals are natural by-products of mitochondrial energy generation and they are also the result of constant bombardment by pollutants, toxins, excess sunlight, unnatural foods, and electromagnetic radiation. In 1954, Dr. Denham Haimen first espoused the Free Radical Theory of Aging. As we age, our body's ability to produce innate antioxidants decreases, giving free radicals and the aging they cause the upper hand in our bodies. Supplementation with natural antioxidants can neutralize these harmful compounds. Liver/DetoxThe liver is a chemical factory, producing digestive and detoxifying enzymes, cholesterol (which at normal levels is vital for brain health and cell membrane integrity), and activating and coenzymating vitamins and minerals for bodily use. The liver is also a clearing station, helping the body detoxify and eliminate the harmful waste products of our metabolism or elements that we consume. The liver's importance is magnified in our industrialized world, where thousands of chemicals, many of which are toxic and never even existed 60 years ago, are entering our bodies as we breathe air, drink water and eat food laced with pollutants, toxic pesticides and hormones, and trans fats. With this heightened level of activity and stress, it is imperative that we give extra support through proper nutrients to this overburdened organ.CirculationThe heart is a muscle that must contract without missing a beat about every second of our lives. The cardiovascular system's importance to our health goes beyond the critical function of supplying food and oxygen to all the cells. The blood transports hormones and other messenger molecules that signal the coordination of numerous critical functions, and through the white blood cells, the circulatory system is the site of significant immune protection. Numerous factors can impact circulatory health: the oxidation of molecules, cholesterol levels, homocysteine buildup, fibrin viscosity, lack of nitric oxide, capillary and blood vessel strength and integrity, metabolic inflammation, and energy generation for a heartbeat. Maintaining these and other functions is an intricate balancing act. That balance can be provided by the intelligent use of nutrition.Cognition/NervesThe human brain is the most complex structure known to man; much of how it functions and enables us to think, feel, contemplate abstract concepts, plan our future, and control many bodily processes is yet to be discovered. The function of the brain and nervous system is based on the unique structure of nerve cells (also called neurons), which take in and send out messages in the form of electrical impulses running through the phospholipids and minerals of the cell membranes. Although it is only two percent of our body weight, the brain consumes 20 percent of our energy. Neurotransmitters, brain chemicals that pass messages from one neuron to another, must be produced in adequate quantities to support mood, intelligence, concentration, assertiveness and calmness. This creates a tremendous need for nutritional fuel and energy. Brain functioning can be significantly improved by the right quantity and quality of nutrients.Metabolism/HormonesAt any moment, millions of biochemical reactions are taking place in or around our nearly 100 trillion cells. To function at high levels of health, our metabolism is constantly binding molecules together and breaking them apart. In a way, our health is a function of the ease, speed, and coordination of these myriad reactions, processes named methylation, acetylation, phosphorylation, and sulfation. Hormones are messengers that tell the body to begin its various physiological activities, such as growth or sexual development. Hormones are produced in our glands and are often triggered by the brain. They are part of the intricate mechanism that makes us humans with unique personalities. Through phospholipids such as omega-3 or omega-6 in the membrane of the cell, the hormones transfer important messages to the nucleus of the cell where the DNA produces the proteins and enzymes needed to carry out the brain's desires. With age, as metabolism slows, can come a loss of effective function, which in turn can lead to a multitude of problems associated with aging. By proactively supporting metabolic and hormonal processes you can maintain youthful activity within your body.About Source NaturalsSource Naturals was created in 1982 by C.E.O Ira Goldberg to support each individual's potential to enjoy optimal health. At that time, the kind of nutritional formulations he envisioned – for the maintenance of well-being and the enhancement of life – simply didn't exist. The idea of combining many nutrients, herbs and nutraceuticals in one formulation, though common today, was then a rarity. Source Naturals pioneered the concept with Wellness Formula, now the industry's #1 immune support product. Source Naturals subsequently introduced numerous award-winning formulas, recognized for their excellence in independent surveys and nutritional analyses. In addition to Wellness, these award-winners include Life Force Multiple, Mega-Kid Multiple, Inflama-Rest, the Skin Eternal line, Higher Mind, Essential Enzymes, Male Response, and more.Source Naturals' comprehensive Bio-Aligned Formulas help bring the power of alignment to your body.

Conspiracy Theory Claims Hawking is an Imposter
An odd conspiracy theory circulating online could rival that of the Flat Earth when it comes to sheer outrageousness.
Those who ascribe to this head-scratching concept say that renowned astrophysicist Stephen Hawking actually died decades ago and was replaced by an imposter.
Conspiracy theorists point to a litany of alleged clues gleaned from studying photographs of the famed scientist over the years as well as aspects about his life that, to them, just don't make sense, such as his remarkably long lifespan for someone diagnosed with ALS in the 1960's.
To that end, they argue that he actually passed away in 1985, when Hawking is known to have fallen gravely ill, and the proverbial 'role' of the astrophysicist has been played by someone else ever since.
Considering that the 'evidence' offered up by researchers is tenuous at best, it would seem that the crux of the conspiracy theory is really the hypothetical motivation for such a scheme orchestrated by the 'powers that be.'

London, UK -- A twenty-two-year-old "living Buddha" will be visiting the UK for the first time, and will be guest of honour at a special inter faith celebration attended by the Bishop of London, according to a press statement issued by the Hindu Forum of Britain.
<< Karmapa Thaye Dorje
It said," Karmapa Thaye Dorje, the spiritual head of the Karma Kagyu lineage of Buddhism, has hundreds of thousands of followers across the world. His Holiness says: 'I am always very excited to visit different parts of the world and this is my first visit to Great Britain. England is an important country to help increase people's awareness of Buddhism around the world'."
Karmapa will be arriving on Friday and will hold teachings and services for thousands of Buddhists over the weekend. He will then appear as guest of honour at a special inter faith celebration on Monday at St Ethelburga's Centre for Reconciliation and Peace in central London.
Richard Chartres, Bishop of London, Sheikh Salahuddin, an imam from the London Central Mosque, and Rabbi Jacqueline Tabick, Chair of the World Congress of Faiths, will be among the numerous religious leaders celebrating friendship and trust between Britain's faiths, almost exactly a month after the London bombings.
Ramesh Kallidai, Secretary General on the Hindu Forum of Britain (who co-host the event) says: "This inter-faith reception in the presence of Karmapa and other religious dignitaries is very unique as it honours all the major faiths in the UK.
"And it is very apt that leaders from the main faith groups are congregating in a Christian Church one month since the tragic bombings in London, it is a clear show of friendship, solidarity and trust between the different faiths in Britain."

The Hearing Loss Association of America reaches people with hearing loss through its network of state organizations and local chapters. All HLAA state and chapter organization volunteer leaders have direct experience with hearing loss. Joining your state and/or local HLAA organizations helps augment your experience with HLAA and learn more about coping with hearing loss.
Download Reasons to Join an HLAA Chapter
HLAA State organizations and Chapters provide strategies and support that are modeled after HLAA Founder Howard "Rocky" Stone's self-help philosophy. They also offer excellent personal growth and leadership skills-building opportunities.
Find the HLAA organizations in your area.
Are you a leader of an existing HLAA State organization or Chapter? Help yourself succeed as a leader by tapping into the many resources HLAA provides. Learn how to help the state organization or chapter thrive!
See the video HLAA – Teamwork for Hearing Loss Awareness for information about HLAA and how state organizations and chapters work together with the HLAA national organization. The video was made possible by a generous contribution from the HLAA-Manhattan (NY) Chapter from their Walk4Hearing proceeds.
Chapters are local or area-wide organizations offering regularly-scheduled meetings and programs. The Chapters offer emotional support, camaraderie, tips and techniques for living with hearing loss, and technical information about hearing assistance devices. A few of the Twelve Reasons Why Self-help Groups are Good for You are that they:
- provide a community of people with hearing loss who understand and are empathic to your unique problems.
- help you deal with the issue of hearing loss stigma.
- share technologies beyond your hearing aids that will enhance your ability to function in the world.
- show you how to stay tuned into family conversations.
- empower you through exchange of knowledge, encouragement and the sharing of experiences.
- alleviate the despair and isolation of hearing loss through their support.
State Organizations
There are two types of HLAA statewide organizations: offices and associations. Both structures exist to work on issues that affect members in their states such as legislation, policies, programs, and communication access, to name a few. Both also work closely with the HLAA Chapter Coordinator(s) in their state to support existing chapter leaders and help encourage new chapters to form. State offices are staffed by a single volunteer (director). State associations have bylaws, are incorporated in their state and operate by elected boards of trustees, similar to HLAA National. Each chapter within the state has representation on the board of the state association. Every HLAA member in the state is automatically a state association member.

This press shot was picked off the SRT Forums, where the poster claims it's the new 2009 Dodge Ram. We've no idea whether or not that's true, but what we do know is that since we didn't have access to embargoed press shots before the unveil expected to come at the Detroit Auto Show in 2008, it certainly wasn't us that posted it over there. Hey, maybe next time Chrysler will actually decide our readers are deserved of embargo access, eh? We're expecting the new Ram to be coming to market with a light-duty V8 Cummins turbodiesel will have about 260-300 hp and 460 lb-ft of torque, with gas mileage supposedly to hit 20 mpg city and 25 on the highway (compared with the Hemi's 13/17). Acceleration is about 1 second longer on the 0-60 (9.6 seconds rather than 8.6 seconds). Whatever, we look forward to watching the stampeding bulls make their way through the city of Detroit in January. What the up-charged Mopar forum fans have to say after the jump.
veritas: "I hope that's horribly inaccurate."
georgejetson: "I think it looks good. Way better than the hideousness that is the current truck."

Cleaning concrete
Concrete is one of the most durable building materials available to the construction industry. But, it can be tarnished by other materials. Over the years, Ferndale has built up a list of common cleaning challenges and how to solve them.
Coffee, tea, alcoholic beverages, and soft drink stains can normally removed with soap and hot water. But if stains persist, apply a bandage saturated with 1 part glycerol (glycerin) diluted with 4 parts water. Two parts of isopropyl alcohol may be added to this mixture to speed up the removal action. The bleaches described for removal of smoke stains are also effective in removing stubborn coffee and other stains. A poultice of talc and trichloroethylene can be used on tough stains.
Airborne dirt can collect on any concrete surface to form a dark and sometimes oily buildup or stain. Buildings with architectural concrete may need to be cleaned of air pollution deposits to regain their original appearance. Some dirt can be removed by scrubbing with detergent and water or 1 part hydrochloric acid in about 20 parts water. However, special proprietary cleaners are often preferred over hydrochloric acid solutions that attack concrete.
A solution of 1 part phosphoric acid to about 3 parts water can be used to scrub away light to moderate amounts of dirt with little to no corrosion. Proprietary cleaners, made with hydrochloric acid and buffers to protect the concrete, are used to remove severe dirt buildup. An alkaline pre-wash followed by an acetic acid wash is another cleaning method. Special cleaning solutions can be specially designed to remove particular types of dirt.
The methods used to remove oil can be helpful in removing very oily dirt. Steam cleaning and light sandblasting or water blasting are also effective.
Once a surface is clean, it is good practice to apply a breathable clear sealer (such as a methacrylate or acrylic-based material) or a clear water-repellent penetrating sealer (such as silane or siloxane) to resist dirt build-up and make future cleaning easier. Some cleaning specialists prefer the silane or siloxane treatments for their high breathability (often with a 95% vapour transmission)
Most solidified epoxies can be removed from small areas by burning them off with a blowtorch. Adequate ventilation must be provided since black acrid smoke will be given off. If a black stain remains, it can be treated like smoke stains. Abrasive blasting is more appropriate for large areas.
Grease does not penetrate concrete, so scraping and scrubbing will usually remove it.
Scrape off all excess grease from the surface and scrub with scouring powder, trisodium phosphate, or detergent. If staining persists, methods involving solvents are required.
Use refined naptha solvent (mineral spirits) or a chlorinated-hydrocarbon solvent such as trichloroethylene* to make a stiff poultice. Apply to the stain and do not remove until the paste is thoroughly dry. Repeat the application as often as necessary. If required, scrub with strong soap, scouring powder, trisodium phosphate, or proprietary cleaners specially formulated for removing grease on concrete. Rinse with clear water.
For large areas, such as an entire floor, use butyl cellosolve (with proper ventilation) or a metasilicate or other alkaline floor cleaner to emulsify all grease and oil on the slab surface. Brush scrubbing is usually required. Before the cleaning solution dries or the emulsion breaks down, flood rinse with water after scrubbing. Other solvents that can be used to remove grease include sodium carbonate, carbon tetrachloride and chloroform.
* WARNING: Do not use trichloroethylene to make a poultice as it reacts with strong alkalis such as cement or fresh concrete and forms dangerous gases.
Prepare a solution of 1 oz (0.03 kg) of commercial laundry detergent, 3 oz (0.09 kg) of trisodium phosphate, 1 qt (0.95 litres) of commercial laundry bleach, and 3 qt (2.8 litres) of water. Apply to the area with a soft brush. Rinse with clear water.
Exterior concrete surfaces that are not exposed to sunlight and remain in a constantly damp condition may exhibit signs of plant growth such as moss. These growths have been successfully removed by application of ammonium sulfamate (marketed under various brand name from garden supply stores). The treatment should be carried out according to directions on the packaging. Should an unsightly powdery deposit be left on the surface, it can be removed by washing with water.
Another method is to use a solution of 1 part sodium pentachlorophenate to 8 parts water by volume. It should be applied so that the moss or other growth is thoroughly saturated. If the surface is exposed to rain within 24 hours following the application, some of the solution will be lost and a further application may be necessary. About one week after the pentachlorophenate solution has been applied, all vegetable growth should have been killed and the residue can be removed by brushing. The surface will usually retain sufficient weed killer to inhibit further growth for some time.
Other chemical solutions that can be used are sodium hypochlorite (laundry bleach), formaldehyde (1 part formalin in 49 parts water), copper nitrate, or copper sulfate – 5 oz (0.14 kg) to 1 gal (3.8 litres) of water. Boiling water alone may also be used.
For best results, the surface should be sealed after dirt and dead moss have been brushed off. There is a variety of paints or transparent sealers commercially available for this type of application. An effective sealer may consist of a mixture of 33% sodium silicate in water with the addition of 1% ammonium chloride as a coagulator. This sealer allows growth to be washed off easily, but will not prevent its formation. Other sealers, such as 7 oz (0.2 kg) by weight of magnesium fluosilicate or zinc fluosilicate in 1 gal (3.8 litres) of water, are also helpful.
Oil Stains
The following simple methods should effectively remove oil stains from driveways and parking lots.
Method A: Saturate the area with mineral spirits or paint thinner. Then cover with an absorbent material such as dry Portland cement, talc, cat litter, Fuller's earth, corn meal, or corn starch. Let stand overnight, and sweep away the covering. Repeat if necessary.
Method B: If an oil stain resists method A, scrub with a trisodium phosphate solution.
Method C: Bleach the surface with laundry bleach.
Many commercial products are suitable for removing spray-paint and felt tip markings from concrete surfaces. These products are generally effective also for removing crayon, chalk, and lipstick. The manufacturer's directions should always be followed. If satisfactory results are not obtained with the first remover applied, a second or third attempt with other products should be made. A single product may not remove both spray paint and felt tip stains.
If a proprietary cleaner is not available, methylene chloride can be used. While wearing protective clothing, brush methylene chloride onto the surface, wait two minutes, and rinse with water, brushing continuously. Oxalic acid or hydrogen peroxide can be used to help bleach out some of the pigment from the concrete pours. Solutions of sodium hydroxide, xylene, or methyl ethyl ketone are also helpful in removing graffiti. Effective cleaning can also be accomplished with water blasting and sandblasting.
After the graffiti is removed, or preferably before a structure is placed in service, an anti-graffiti coating or sealer should be applied. The surface treatment should prevent graffiti from entering the pores of the concrete and should facilitate removal of the graffiti, preferably without removing the surface treatment.
Aliphatic urethanes are considered the best anti-graffiti coatings because of their resistance to solvents, yellowing and abrasion. Solvents such as mineral spirits or methyl ethyl ketone can remove most graffiti from an aliphatic polyurethane without compromising the urethane coating. Acrylics, epoxies, silanes, and siloxanes are also used to make graffiti removal easier. Acrylics dissolve with the solvent and epoxies tend to yellow or discolour. Silanes and siloxanes may not resist certain graffiti materials as well as urethanes, but they do maintain a high breathability at the concrete surface while resisting penetration of graffiti into the concrete.
Miscellaneous Stains
Stains varying in intensity from light yellow to brown sometimes occur on interior concrete and terrazzo floors due to the original finishing or subsequent cleaning. Such discolourations are usually not hard to remove. It is possible to bring the surface back to its original appearance by applying poultice impreganted with Javelle water (solution of sodium hypochlorite), or by scrubbing the surface with Javelle water.
Stains other than those discussed can be removed by experimenting with different bleaches or solvents on an inconspicuous area. The treated area should always be thoroughly scrubbed with clear water after the treatment so that no traces of the removing agent remain.
Colored Concrete
Colored concrete can be protected by employing these easy care tips.
Concrete Sealers
Concrete sealers help protect concrete from damage from de-icing agents and freeze-thaw cycles, while repelling oil, grease, water and stains.
- Seal your concrete with a quality sealer
- It is imperative to apply the sealer during the first year after your concrete has been placed and prior to the first frost
- A regular resealing program should be scheduled every one to two years
- Schedule periodic cleaning to avoid the gradual accumulation of dirt. The most effective method of cleaning colored concretes is chemical free, low pressure power washing.
Snow and Ice Removal
- Snow and ice should be removed with a plastic snow shovel
- Avoid the use of de-icing salts
- Do not carry out ice chipping on a concrete surface

I was wondering if you had suggestions on creating a blog for a designer. I would like to get involved in Blog trains.
Do you have a preferred blog site?
Thanks for any input
I was wondering if you had suggestions on creating a blog for a designer. I would like to get involved in Blog trains.
Do you have a preferred blog site?
Thanks for any input
Yay! Welcome to the blogging world! We have another blog themed topic here, but it´s different from your request: There we talk about blogs already started, which are trying to engage people, and you are asking how to start a blog. So, I guess I´ll keep both topics running.
Most of designer´s blogs are based on blogspot, including mine, but some also use WordPress. In my opinion, blogspot is fine for designing blog needs, and it´s better to customize. Wordpress, however, has other features that can be better used on other kinds of blogs - you can make it looking more like a site than a blog. The fact that you can only fully customize WP if you are a paid user is probably the reason people have to keep designing blogs on blogspot.
I´d love, however, to hear other blogger´s opinions.
I am interested in this thread. I have not done a blog, and my scrapbooking might be the one reason I would consider starting a blog. I am active on some forums where I am comfortable to post my layouts (in accordance with each site's rules - usually by taking part in challenges) I have albums of my scrapbooking on my personal facebook page at a privacy setting that only my facebook friends can see. But apart from this I do not have a record of my digital scrapbooking journey in any one place (layouts are well filed and backed up by the month I made them) I am a scrapbook artist as opposed to designer (but have tried my hand at designing once and may do again) A blog seems to be almost expected in these digi-scrapping communities - however I read many blogs that share a lot of personal information and as scrapbooking is very personal I am a bit wary of privacy issues (for me and those I love). So yes, in considering where I want to go with this, I am interested in the 'how to' of having a blog as well as the privacy issues of what should and shouldn't be on a blog.
I think blogger is a popular choice because it's quick and easy to set up. WordPress is more customizable. If you're serious about building a great blog, I would probably use WordPress, but if you're just looking for a quick and simple place to post things Blogger is probably a good option.
I second what Marisa says. I've been blogging in blogger for almost three years, it's very easy, I've always considered switching to Wordpress but just haven't invested the time in doing so. When I started blogging I really wasn't sure what I was going to do with it, but now I think I've finally found a direction. I did have some photo / privacy issues arise with my blog, so I no longer post photos of my kids faces on my blog. I also, just learned this week that you can password protect certain posts you don't want public in wordpress, which, is very neat, so I myself might be making the switch to wordpress!
Thank You all for your tips~! I really appreciate your input. I will use your suggestions happily.
i'm a blogger.com blogger as well and i think it's a good place to start - lots of free blogger backgrounds and templates available. all the best in your blog project!
Thanks again!
It looks like I registered at blogger a while back.
So I will have to jump out of the box and get busy learning
I know this is an old thread, but if anyone new wanders over to get info on which blog site to use, PLEASE go with Wordpress over Blogger! I am miserable on blog trains filling out captcha after captcha, having them not go through, having it erase my comment, starting over again... I want to just throw up my hands and not leave comments on those pages but I do feel it's important to thank designers for their generosity. It's always on Blogger/Blogspot blogs that I have to do through this absurdity.
When I've asked people why they have the horrible captcha security set up for commenters, they've told me it's because they get gross spam comments and need to filter them out. I have been using Wordpress since 2007, and they have a TERRIFIC spam filter. I've had to delete maybe two inappropriate comments over the past several years. I don't understand why Blogger can't just do the same thing for their users, but apparently they don't. So for the sake of all our carpal tunnels (which will break under the strain of so many captchas) please use Wordpress!
Or, alternately, disable the captcha on your Blogger blog and either hold comments for approval or just go through and deal with the spam comments on a case by case basis.
wow, I had a spam on blogger only once, which was caught by blogger as spam, and I have my blog there since 2008. The new blog in English didn´t have a spam till now, and it started in the beginning of the year. On my Wordpress, the anti-spam counts 507 spams. Sometimes it counts a real comment as spam, and once or twice it didn´t identified a spam.
Here in Brazil there is a strong movement from bloggers at blogspot to disable the captcha, it´s almost a rule "yes captcha, no comments". I do comment in blogs with captcha, but only on blog trains, but I really prefer the ones without it, and, sometimes, I don´t realise it has a captcha and close the tab before putting it, so the comment is lost. I really think people should just disabe word verification and give it a try, maybe adding that comments on the posts older than 15 days and containing links need to be aprooved by the blog owner (yes, there are these options).
@Violet Thank you so very much! I am so new to blogging that I didn't realize this was happening...I hate captcha but didn't realize I had to set the preference so people would not get it. I wanted to make it easy for everyone to get my BT submissions...even paid for the least expensive Mediafire so people would get a direct download vice having all those ads. And I cannot tell you how many times my ESET Security has blocked me from some downloads because of security issues! It only costs me $18 a year and well worth it so that downloaders will not have ads. This is one more thing to check off for ease of use. I also added the one click comments so that if a person does not have time or want to type in a comment it is easy for them.
It was hard enough to figure out Blogger but maybe I will go to Wordpress eventually.
I chose to take off the word verification and add the approval always. Might be a little more work but I want it to be as easy and stress free as possible for my visitors.
Thanks so much!
I used to blog through Typepad, but when I didn't have the time for it, I didn't want to pay any longer so I swapped over to Wordpress. Not too bas to use and more customizable than blogspot.
I've had my blog on blogger since early 2006 and haven't had any issues with spam. I have it set so that I moderate all comments and blogger has been very good at picking out the spam. I think blogger is really simple to use, easy to customize, and is the most popular platform for blogs. Although I've moved my blog to my store, I really like the format that blogger uses and people are familiar with it. I don't like the captcha thing either, but I see it as an evil necessity. Its always one bad apple that spoils everything...
The whole concept of blogging for a living just fascinates me. I can't believe people do it. Where do you find the time? Also the commitment to your self. A lot of money can be made out there in cyberspace. Just have to want it bad enough I guess.

I have a half sister to my gelding, the gelding has a long flowing mane, his forelock is over his eyes and tail is about 6 inches on the ground, he's 4. His 5 yr old half sisters forelock has neve been more than 2 or 3 inches and a short mane tail is about a foot off the ground. You get what you get.

My friend's horse lost part of its tail because she tied his tail bag too tight. She started using this stuff called Original M-T-G and already it has thickened and grown a few inches. She also used it on her other horse who had a very thin tail. I couldn't believe the difference it made. Hope this helps!

LOL...suprisingly that is an option. Lots of show people use extensions on their horses tail. Don't ask me why.
MTG-Mane and Tail Groom. You can get it at most horse places, or by mail. It would never brush your horses mane or tail when they are wet. The hair will stretch and weaken, making it more prone to breakage. A product like Cowboy Magic detangler, will help with any tangles, so you don't have to pull so hard and break more. And like what Miss Daisy said, don't wash it too often. Dry = breakage. Good luck!
Never miss a good chance to shut up.

Re: how can i get...?
My 4y/o gelding had a really thin and ugly mane. It was long in some places and short in others. I finally got tired of it and roached it. It has grown back so long and beautiful not to mention it's so much thicker. On the tail thing, don't use a stiff bristle brush on their tail. It causes it to break off. Also, buy a good conditioner. I have had good luck with the Mane&Tail Conditioner. It can be found at any feed store.
When you have a fast horse, 3 barrels and a winning time...who needs a cowboy?

I would assume they would be like us. If you stimulate the hair follicles with massage they are supposed to grow better. Hasn't helped me a bit though.
Just because you have one doesn't mean you have to act like one.

I spotted this fantastic Birds of Australia print by Amy Borrell of Cake With Giants on Creature Comforts yesterday and fell in love. In fact, I nicknamed the birds 'dapper flappers' and couldn't stop imagining the birds around Vancouver sporting similar vibrant accessories. If only the sky was full of such stylish feathered creatures!

NL Final Vote winner Rizzo headed for first ASG
CINCINNATI -- Thanks to a strong surge of fan support, Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo is now an All-Star.
Rizzo won the 2014 All-Star Game MLB.com Final Vote sponsored by Experian on Thursday, edging the Rockies' Justin Morneau and the Braves' Justin Upton in a close race. The first baseman received 8.8 million votes and is the first Cubs player to win the All-Star MLB.com Final Vote. He found out after the team beat the Reds, 6-4, in 12 innings.View Full Game Coverage
CINCINNATI -- Thanks to a strong surge of fan support, Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo is now an All-Star.
Rizzo won the 2014 All-Star Game MLB.com Final Vote sponsored by Experian on Thursday, edging the Rockies' Justin Morneau and the Braves' Justin Upton in a close race. The first baseman received 8.8 million votes and is the first Cubs player to win the All-Star MLB.com Final Vote. He found out after the team beat the Reds, 6-4, in 12 innings.View Full Game Coverage
"It's awesome," Rizzo said. "It's great to get that win, too. I'm very, very happy."
Rizzo, 24, trailed Morneau until late Wednesday when the Cubs first baseman took the lead. However, Rizzo's lead was less than 2 percent early Thursday prior to the start of the Twitter voting in which fans could tweet #VoteRizzo.
Rizzo tried to boost his votes by giving away his game-used shoes from Thursday's game, which he marked "#VoteRizzo." He can probably get a new pair for Tuesday's All-Star Game, which will be his first.
Cubs manager Rick Renteria gave Rizzo the news in the post-game meeting, and it was greeted by a loud cheer. The players then drowned Rizzo in a celebratory shaving cream shower.
"They're setting themselves apart and doing things that are obviously impacting people who notice as far as the oranization is concerned," Renteria said of Rizzo and shortstop Starlin Castro, who was named to the NL team. "They're representing the organization very well. They should enjoy this particular time. It's a tremendous feat.
"They've earned it," Renteria said. "They've gone after it and shown they're among the top tier of players in the big leagues."
Rizzo will join Castro and former teammate Jeff Samardzija, who were both selected by the players' votes. Samardzija, now with the Athletics after a July 4 trade, will have a generic National League jersey.
"It's a crazy day," Rizzo said. "To get the win and hear that -- it's great."
The Chicago Blackhawks, Chicago Bulls and Chicago Bears' Lance Briggs and Robbie Gould showed support along with actors Joe Mantegna and Jeff Garlin, as did Rizzo's teammates. Chicago's Mike Olt voted more than 2,500 times, and was able to cast about 1,000 votes via text before batting practice.
"He's saved us," Olt said of the Cubs first baseman. "He's saved us plenty of errors. Just [Wednesday], I threw one a little off the side, and he makes a nice routine play. I'm thinking, if I'm playing first, I know I'm not getting it.
"Defensively, he gets us out of jams and keeps us in games, and offensively, he's taught me and a lot of the guys a lot," Olt said. "When we need someone to come through, he's the guy. That's an All-Star right there."
Rizzo belted his 20th home run Wednesday in the third inning, launching a 2-0 pitch from the Reds' Alfredo Simon into the Cubs' bullpen. He is the first Cubs left-handed hitter with 20 home runs before the All-Star break since Rick Monday hit 20 in 1973, and the first player in team history to do so since Derrek Lee belted 27 in 2005.
"I'm just being aggressive," Rizzo said. "Teams are going to pound me in, and I know that's what they're going to do. Let them do it, and if they miss, I try to take advantage of it."
He found out prior to Wednesday's game that he had passed Morneau.
"It's really cool," Rizzo said of the fans' support. "I'm really appreciative for all of it."
Rizzo is one of three National League players to reach 20 home runs by the All-Star break, and was second in the league to the Marlins' Giancarlo Stanton (21). Rizzo has 17 home runs since April 30, the most in the NL, and was tied for fifth most in the Major Leagues in that span.
Cubs pitcher Edwin Jackson knows how valuable Rizzo and Castro are to the team.
"Rizzo and Castro are both All-Star caliber players," Jackson said. "They're both able to go out and do things that the average person in the game can't do. I definitely hope [Rizzo] gets a chance to make it. It's fun times and a good experience. You're in the clubhouse with the All-Stars and it's the creme de la creme, the best of the best. Just from experience, it's a real fun time. It's something that you wish everybody in their career had a chance to do it."
Rizzo also is a survivor. Diagnosed in 2008 Hodgkin's lymphoma, he's beaten cancer and is doing his part to help children stricken with the disease. The Rizzo Family Foundation has hosted two walk-a-thons in his hometown in Parkland, Fla., and held two fundraising events in Chicago to help cancer patients. And he makes several unannounced visits a year at cancer wards to try and pick up patients' spirits. It's a part of his life that he'll never forget. During the Cubs' recent trip to Boston, Rizzo said he got a knot in his stomach passing the hospital where he first started chemo treatements.
Right now, he's focused on baseball, and his first trip to the All-Star Game.
"I've had a lot of good first basemen here," Chicago second baseman Darwin Barney said. "I was with Derrek Lee for a little and then Carlos Pena, who was a Gold Glover, and I honestly think Riz is the best first baseman I've had. He takes pride in it. We've worked together for so long, I know he'll win a couple Gold Gloves in his career.
"Just having someone over there who you can talk to -- we have game plans for different people, and the fact that he's so good around the bag, he's definitely the best guy I've had over there," Barney said.
The final phase of All-Star Game voting will again allow fans to help choose the Ted Williams All-Star Game Most Valuable Player Award presented by Chevrolet. During the Midsummer Classic, fans will vote exclusively online at MLB.com and via Twitter in the 2014 All-Star Game MLB.com MVP Vote Sponsored by Pepsi, and their collective voice will represent 20 percent of the overall vote that determines the recipient of the Arch Ward Trophy.

BUY INDERAL NO PRESCRIPTION, Much has been made on the Internet regarding the Jan. 13 girls basketball game between Dallas Academy and Covenant School, both parochial schools in Texas. No prescription INDERAL online, Covenent School won the game 100-0, prompting that school's coach to be fired because winning in that fashion was not a "Christlike and honorable approach to competition," according to the school.
100-0, order INDERAL from mexican pharmacy. It just has that drop-your-jaw feel to it. But fire a coach, BUY INDERAL NO PRESCRIPTION. That may be a bit too extreme. Purchase INDERAL for sale, I certainly think a multiple-game suspension would have sufficed. Firing a coach, who was a teacher at the school, is a tough call since unemployment is already through the roof in this country, INDERAL photos.
No one should complain about Mediapolis coach Todd Rogers running up the score when he left Abby Darbyshire on the floor to get her record eighth 3-pointer of the game with two seconds left earlier this season. BUY INDERAL NO PRESCRIPTION, The Bullettes were up ONLY 21 points at the time; her three made it 24 as time expired. In light of the fallout in Texas, Where can i cheapest INDERAL online, this is awfully minor.
I've seen games similar to the Texas game, but not in nine years. When I worked in Iowa Falls, purchase INDERAL online, an absolutely loaded Hubbard-Radcliffe girls team beat BCL-UW, I believe. INDERAL gel, ointment, cream, pill, spray, continuous-release, extended-release, The Rebels had a blow-hard, arrogant coach, who believed in pressure defense. I can't remember the exact score, but I imagine it was a 60 or 70-point win, BUY INDERAL NO PRESCRIPTION. The H-R coach eventually was suspended about two-thirds of the way through the season for shoving an official in the locker room after a game, discount INDERAL. The school was put on probation for two years. The team made it to the state tournament. Purchase INDERAL online no prescription, I hate it when coaches run up the score, and it's obvious 100-0 is a running-up, especially when it was 59-0 at halftime, and the team continued to press and shoot 3-pointers in the second half, buy cheap INDERAL no rx. BUY INDERAL NO PRESCRIPTION, Most times, however, running up the score isn't nearly as obvious, and is all about perception. I think coaches around here are very good at waving the white towel of surrender, putting reserves in in a blowout, INDERAL results, and the opponent usually does the same.
I have a few beliefs regarding running up the score:
• Players need to play. They can't control how bad another team is. If a team is up 30 in the second half; they need to come out of the game, about INDERAL. What happens if a player gets hurt in a game that loses its meaning, BUY INDERAL NO PRESCRIPTION. Then what. Teams who leave players in the game, Online buy INDERAL without a prescription, only to see an injury to a player, deserve what they get.
• At some point, it's time to respect the opponent, INDERAL pics. Dallas Academy had only eight players on its team. BUY INDERAL NO PRESCRIPTION, Imagine if the team running up the score was the one that was having it run up on them. It's simple role reversal. After INDERAL, Pulling back the reins up 59-0 at halftime should have happened. If I was coaching, Covenant School's starters would have played a minute in the second half, then it would have been a steady influx of reserves the rest of the game, INDERAL for sale.
It's food for thought. There is rarely black and while, and running up the score is in the gray area, BUY INDERAL NO PRESCRIPTION. Again, INDERAL reviews, it's all perception. The Dallas Academy players seemed to take in graciously; which was somewhat surprising.
I had a rare Saturday night off last weekend, and went to Round 2 of the Harmony-New London girls basketball battle in New London, comprar en línea INDERAL, comprar INDERAL baratos. From what I saw, if the teams are fortunate enough to meet in the regional semifinals, INDERAL australia, uk, us, usa, the game will be a tossup. New London won 48-46.
BUY INDERAL NO PRESCRIPTION, I did see some things that stood out in the second meeting, that were also prevalent the first one earlier in the week, when New London won 66-65 in overtime.
• Harmony does not appear to be a great finishing team. This is not a knock on the Rockets, who are very capable of a run to the state tournament. Rather, INDERAL alternatives, it's a compliment because they've been in front of nearly every game this season. But the Rockets led the Tigers by 13 in the first half Tuesday, INDERAL pictures, and led by six at halftime Saturday. Amy Eastin's eye injury a minute into the fourth quarter Saturday was key. She never returned, and the Rockets never looked the same.
• New London needs more free-throw work, BUY INDERAL NO PRESCRIPTION. The Tigers had an opportunity to bury Harmony late in the game, but came up empty in crucial situations at the line, japan, craiglist, ebay, overseas, paypal. Even Ciara Allen, who is almost automatic (85 percent) at the line, Where can i find INDERAL online, struggled and only made 6-of-16 for the game. Missed free throws let Harmony hang around till the end. It's the same problem the Tigers had last year; had they made half their free throws against Holy Trinity, they'd have played in Des Moines, what is INDERAL. BUY INDERAL NO PRESCRIPTION, If you're an opponent in a close game, you have to feel you have a decent chance of winning if you put New London at the line.
• Harmony's Carissa Nelson has some of the best post moves I've seen. She's only 5-foot-9, but perhaps no one plays bigger in the paint. Get INDERAL, It's one thing to front her down low, it's another to anticipate what move is coming, and it's almost always coming. Whether it's a pivot under the basket, rx free INDERAL, or just a hard drive to the hoop, she's tough to stop. INDERAL pharmacy, She had 34 in the teams' first meeting, but was held to only four the second time.
• It's tough to find a better rebounding team than New London. The Tigers are absolute beasts on the glass, and rarely does a team get a second or third opportunity, BUY INDERAL NO PRESCRIPTION. When you have two players averaging more than eight rebounds a game in Maggie Miller and Ashley Blint, that's tough to match up with, where to buy INDERAL. Rebounding will serve the Tigers well in the tournament.
SEI SUPERCONFERENCE SHOOTOUT: With New London's win over Harmony, it appears that most of the SEI Superconference Shootout matchups are set when the games begin Feb. Buy INDERAL online no prescription, 7. New London and Mediapolis, undefeated and ranked in Class 1A and 2A, respectively, INDERAL dose, will meet at Vernon "Bud" McLearn Court in Mediapolis to decide the best team in the conference. BUY INDERAL NO PRESCRIPTION, It's only fitting these two meet; they've been in control from their divisions from the start. Should be a great game. Also, Harmony would play Louisa-Muscatine in Letts if the current standings hold, and that also would be a dandy. Then, there is Fairfield Maharishi and Wapello, with the winner trying for its first victory.
On the boys side, Iowa Mennonite and Central Lee appear headed for a showdown. IMS, despite many graduation losses, has dominated the North this season, while the Hawks may have the most veteran team in the conference. Notre Dame would play Pekin for the No, BUY INDERAL NO PRESCRIPTION. 2-seeded game.
BOYS POSTSEASON PAIRINGS: The Class 1A and 2A boys district pairings should be out early next week as the cut-off for seeding is Saturday. Notre Dame, Holy Trinity and Central Lee all figure to be well-seeded in their respective classes. It's hard to picture Central Lee not getting a No. 1 seed in its 2A district, while Holy Trinity could get one in its 1A district (Holy Trinity and Notre Dame would meet in a substate final). Notre Dame probably will get a No. 2 seed in its district.
The Class 3A and 4A pairings will be finalized Feb. 7.
