|Capital Costs of Arsenic Removal Technologies, U.S. EPA Arsenic Removal Technology Demonstration Program, Round 1 (54 pp, 944 KB) (EPA/600/R-04/201) December 2004
In January 2001, EPA finalized the maximum contaminant level (MCL) for arsenic at 0.01 milligrams per liter (mg/L). EPA subsequently revised the rule to express the MCL as 0.010 mg/L (10 micrograms per liter). The final rule requires all community and nontransient, noncommunity water systems to comply with the new standard by February 2006.
In October 2001, EPA announced an initiative for additional research and development of cost-effective technologies to help small community water systems (those with fewer than 10,000 customers) meet the new arsenic standard and to provide technical assistance to operators of small systems in order to reduce compliance costs.
As part of this Arsenic Rule Implementation Research Program, EPA proposed a project to conduct a series of full-scale, long-term, on-site demonstrations of arsenic removal technologies, process modifications, and engineering approaches applicable to small systems in order to evaluate the efficiency and effectiveness of arsenic removal systems at meeting the new arsenic MCL.
For the Round 1 demonstration study, the selected arsenic treatment technologies included nine adsorptive media systems, one ion exchange system, one coagulation/filtration system, and one process modification. The adsorptive media systems used four different adsorptive media, including three iron-based media (ADI's G2, Severn Trent and AdEdge's E33, and USFilter's GFH) and one iron-modified activated alumina media (Kinetico's AAFS50, a product of Alcan). Since the inception of the project, 10 of 12 systems have been installed, with flow rates at all systems ranging from 37 to 640 gallons per minute.
A key objective of the long-term demonstration project is to determine the cost-effectiveness of the technologies. This report provides a brief description of each of the 12 Round 1 demonstration sites and the respective technologies being evaluated. Capital costs were organized into three categories: equipment, engineering, and installation. Then they were summed for a total capital investment cost for each system. Operations and maintenance costs associated with the treatment systems are not yet available; however, vendor-supplied estimates on media replacement costs are provided in this report.
Excluding the cost for one system-modification site, the total capital investment costs ranged from $90,757 to $305,000 and varied by flow rate, system design, construction material, monitoring equipment, and specific site conditions. Based on a 3 percent interest rate and a 20-year return period, the unit costs of the total capital investment ranged from $0.03 to $0.79 per 1,000 gallons of water treated.
In general, the unit cost decreased as the size of a treatment system increased. The equipment costs for the treatment systems ranged from $66,235 to $218,000, representing 54 to 80 percent of the total capital investment cost. Engineering costs for the treatment systems ranged from $4,907 to $50,659, accounting for 5 to 22 percent of the total capital investment with an average of 12 percent. Installation costs for the treatment systems ranged from $13,150 to $77,574, accounting for 12 to 34 percent of the total capital investment with an average of 22 percent.
Finally, building cost information obtained from the host facilities is provided in the report. Building costs ranged from $3,700 to $186,000 and varied according to differences in location, size, design, construction material, and choice of construction contractor.

More Ringling nonsense: Circus elephants enjoy living out of boxcars
As the Ringling rail cars were unloaded in Las Vegas Tuesday evening, 12 hours before their scheduled arrival, Ringling animal handler Ryan Henning expressed the same sentiments his employer has emphasized in recent years -- mainly, how well circus elephants are treated and how much the big pachyderms enjoy living out of boxcars. "They enjoy it. They travel very comfortably. I would say they travel better than the people in the show. They've got it made," he said.
The article links to the court documents in Born Free USA's trial against Ringling (for violating the Endangered Species Act by cruelly mistreating Asian elephants) which clearly show otherwise.

VATICAN RADIO: The last Christian families still present in Mosul are leaving the city and are heading towards Iraqi Kurdistan.
The exodus was caused by the proclamation on Thursday by the self-proclaimed Islamic Caliphate that Christians must pay a special tax or be killed. Islamists have for the past two days been marking the doors of homes belonging to Christians and Shia Muslims living in the city.
"For the first time in the history of Iraq, Mosul is now empty of Christians," said Chaldean Patriarch Louis Sako in an interview with the AFP news agency.

by St. Ephrem the Syrian, Doctor of the Church
On a certain day a pearl did I take up, my brethren;I saw in it mysteries pertaining to the Kingdom;Semblances and types of the Majesty;It became a fountain, and I drank out of it mysteries of the Son.
I put it, my brethren, upon the palm of my hand,That I might examine it: I went to look at it on one side, And it proved faces on all sides. I found out that the Son was incomprehensible, Since He is wholly Light.
In its brightness I beheld the Bright One Who cannot be clouded,And in its pureness a great mystery, Even the Body of Our Lord which is well-refined: In its undividedness I saw the Truth Which is undivided.
It was so that I saw there its pure conception, The Church, and the Son within her. The cloud was the likeness of her that bare Him, And her type the heaven, Since there shone forth from her His gracious Shining.
I saw therein his Trophies, and His victories, and His crowns. I saw His helpful and overflowing graces, And His hidden things with His revealed things.

We are all called to share our faith, but how should we do so? If we follow the example of Pope Francis, one way will be through new media like Twitter, blogging, and web videos.
With the Vatican, our Diocese, and many parishes active online through websites and social media, spreading our faith on the "new frontier" of the internet (as Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI called it) is easier than ever.
The Catholic Communication Campaign funds these efforts, including the USCCB For Your Marriage campaign and coverage of important events, like last year's papal election of Pope Francis. Half of all donations collected in Phoenix stay in Phoenix to support outreach through radio, print, TV, web, and social media outlets.
The message for this year's 48th World Day for Communications emphasizes the importance of human relationships within social social networks. Pope Francis reminds us that "communication is ultimately a human rather than a technological achievement." When we join in these networks as authentic witnesses of our Christian faith, we bring the light of Christ to others.
The Catholic Communication Campaign helps us to grow in faith, worship, and witness. Please be generous in the collection, which will take place in most parishes the weekend of May 31 - June 1, 2014.

The Arizona Republic:
What if Arizona repealed the death penalty? Catholic Bishop Thomas Olmsted and County Attorney Bill Montgomery debate the consequences.
Most sweet Jesus, You have bestowed on men the benefits of Your charity, but their ingratitude only responds with forgetfulness, negligence and spite. Thus here we prostrate ourselves before Your altar, inspired by the desire to make reparation through a special homage for their culpable indifference and the outrages which, in all ways, they oppress Your most loving Heart.
Nevertheless, we remember that we ourselves have been guilty of unworthy conduct in the past, and filled with profound sorrow, we implore Your mercy for us first of all. By voluntary expiation, we are ready to atone for the faults we have committed, ready also to expiate for those who, led astray from the way of salvation and remaining obstinate in their infidelity, refuse to follow You, their Shepherd and chief, thus throwing off the yoke of Your law and trampling the promises of their Baptism.
We would like to expiate for too many lamentable faults, making reparation for each of the following: our disorderly conduct, indecent fashions, scandalous corruption of innocent souls, profanation of Sundays and feasts, detestable blasphemies against You and against Your Saints, insults to your Vicar and to Your priests, reckless violations and odious sacrileges to the divine Sacrament of Your love, and finally the public sins of nations who revolt against the rights and authority of Your Church.
If only we could erase so many offenses with our own blood! At the least we wish to make reparation to Your outraged honor. We present to You even the satisfaction that You have offered to Your Father on the Cross, and the offering You have renewed each day on the altar. We present that sacrifice to You, accompanied with all the acts of atonement made by the Most Holy Virgin Your Mother, the Saints, and by faithful Christians. We promise You with all of our hearts, with the help of Your grace, to use all our means to do penance for our past faults and those of our neighbor. By the fervor of our faith, the purity of our life, and by perfect docility to the precepts of the Gospel, we desire to atone for the indifference toward such a great love, to which belongs all charity. We also promise You to make every effort to spare You new offenses and to lead the most souls possible to follow You.
Agreed, we offer You in this matter, O most good Jesus, by the intercession of the gracious Virgin Mary, Reparatrix, this spontaneous homage of expiation. Guard us until death, keeping us unshakably faithful to our duty and to Your service. Accord to us this precious gift of perseverance, which leads us finally to our native land where, with the Father and the Holy Spirit, You reign, God, forever and ever.

Dairy-Free Dessert Recipe: Strawberries & "Cream" Chia Pudding
Recipes from The Kitchn
Chia seed puddings are all the rage these days, and for good reason. When stirred with water, juice, or milk, the seeds gel up and thicken, creating the most delightful tapioca-like texture. It's easy (no heat required!) and contains all the nutrition of chia seeds, which taste neutral enough that you can play with your favorite flavors. In my case, that means a sweet spring combo of strawberries, coconut, and lime.
To make this creamy dessert, simply puree a couple big handfuls of strawberries in a blender with coconut milk, honey, vanilla, and lime zest. Whisk in chia seeds, refrigerate for at least four hours, et voilà — pudding! No messing with the stove, plus it's free of dairy, gelatin, gluten, and refined sugar. For a strictly vegan version, you can swap out the honey for a sweetener like maple syrup or agave nectar.
A sliced strawberry makes a lovely topping, as do coconut flakes, cocoa nibs, nuts, or whatever your sweet tooth desires.
Strawberry Chia Pudding
Place the chia seeds in a large bowl, pour the strawberry mixture on top, and whisk thoroughly. Let stand for 10 minutes and whisk again.
Recipe Notes
- Sweeteners: Honey may be substituted with other sweeteners like maple syrup, agave nectar, date syrup, etc. Adjust amounts for desired sweetness.
- Garnish ideas: strawberries, coconut flakes, lime zest, chopped or slivered nuts, cocoa nibs, fresh mint.

Hi Emily- how about light coconut milk or almond milk? Thoughts?
oh yeah, i do this all the time with almond milk/coconut milk from a carton. sooooo gooood.
my favorite way to make this is with coconut milk from a carton and mango. ooooh so good. perfect post-run snack.
@scrutables I like the rich creaminess of full-fat coconut milk, but you could certainly use light coconut milk or almond milk. You just might need to refrigerate it for longer than 4 hours to reach a thicker texture.
If I don't stock vanilla beans (scandalous, I know) could I use some vanilla extract or something?
I ditto becster.henrich's vanilla question!
oh my goodness, this is genius!! I have a whole bag of chia seeds just sitting on the shelf waiting to be put to good use, and this looks brillant! My daughters LOVE tapioca pudding, but I hate having to cook and stir it for so long, this is a great idea and probably tons healthier!! The mango version sounds amazing to me....I wonder how many mangos you would need?? two or three??
@becster.henrich & @tulip44 A vanilla bean gives this a richer flavor -- the vanilla really shines. However, you could substitute 1-2 teaspoons of vanilla extract.
This sounds amazing. I'm new to using chia seeds so I can't wait to try this. I was wondering if you could recommend any different flavor combinations other than strawberry. My son just came back with a moderate intolerance to strawberries so I wouldn't be able to use them. But I know he would eat something like this. Any suggestions??
I think your son would love this raw vegan chia pudding- so deliciously creamy with a hint of spice- http://veganlatina.com/child's-play-chia-pudding/
I make it all the time. It's super easy- no hulling, scraping, or zesting required!
Made this for a group of friends--one of whom is trying out a gluten-free, vegan diet--and they were all shocked by how delicious it was! Oh, and I topped it with whipped coconut milk using this post as inspiration:
Now I want whipped coconut milk on everything!!

Building a 1200 Horse Power Common Rail Cummins
Doug Hockenberry – Interview with Vinny Himes of DX2Parts.com
Photos Courtesy of Vinny Himes
Vinny, I am doing a paper for school on how to build a 1200 horse power common rail. What would be your approach to a project of this caliber?
Doug, honestly this is a loaded question, the old saying "there's more than one way to skin a cat" Really comes to mind right now.
There are so many shops out there that have put together a 1200+ horse power Common Rail Cummins.
The real questions here should be…..
How do you build a 1200 horse power Common Rail that you can still drive?
That being said reliability is hit and miss at that power level, some guys can make them live for a long time because they either, never drive the thing except on the weekends when they are competing, or they drive it every single day but only get on it hard every now and then.
If the right steps are taken during the engine build there is no reason you can't get some good miles out of an engine like that.
You will break it eventually and people expecting to build something like this and have it last forever need a reality check. I have actually had guys call me telling me how worthless some other shop is because they built a 1000 horse engine and then after countless sled pulls and drag races the engine blew up. Now that customer is all mad at the shop and wants them to warranty the work.
This is ridiculous. The fact that these engines hold up as long as they do is nothing short of amazing but be realistic in your expectations. Something will eventually break, that's what you get when you start playing the high performance game.
What are the steps you would take to build a "Somewhat" reliable 1200 horse power Cummins engine?
Well I would start by making sure I had a nice sound engine to begin with. I would have the cylinder head pressure tested with heat to ensure there are no existing stress fractures or cracks. Once I knew the cylinder head was sound I would have the intake tray milled off the side of the head to allow access to the intake runners. Industrial Injections has been providing me with top of the line cylinder heads and I will continue to use their services. This is the kind of work you can expect from them.
With the tray removed you can get a good port and polish on the intake side. I would perform the same port and polish on the exhaust side of the cylinder head.
I would have oversized valves installed by a very good machine shop and port the valve bowls. With a good port job these heads can flow 100 CFM more than a stock cylinder head.
You will have to get an aftermarket side mount intake manifold now that the factory one has been removed. Hellmann Performance is the only one I sell and they really are a work of art.
There is a row of freeze plugs down the passenger's side of the head. These are just a pressed in soft plug and they will blow out under high boost. I would pull those out and drill and tap the holes to accept a threaded coolant plug.
I would install a set of 110 lb. valve springs with titanium retainers. Switching from a steel retainer to a titanium retainer makes a huge difference when you are running an engine at high RPM's.
For example, 1 gram of weight is equivalent to 800 pounds at 8000 RPM's that's based off a rotating weight but you can see how much stress can be relieved just by lightening up the valve train in a high performance engine.
Factory steel retainers on left, Hamilton Titanium retainers' right
While we are discussing rotating weight and valve train, I would like to mention Harland Sharp billet roller rockers.
I would highly recommend their products for a build of this caliber. You can remove up to 100 grams from the valve train by using a set of Harland Sharps' billet roller rockers, while also reducing friction in the valve train. This can ultimately gain you 30 additional rotating horse power while lowering engine temperatures and increasing longevity. You may hear some people say these roller rockers are not meant for daily driving. 100% not true, I have used these roller rockers on daily driven and competition builds. The brass bushed roller rockers will work perfectly for both scenarios.
Harland Sharp Roller Rockers: When using oversized valves make sure you take a measurement of the distance from outside to outside of the valve stems, also check valve stem diameter. Give these measurements to Harland Sharp before ordering, this extra step will ensure you don't run into any fitment issues.
Wow Vinny, so with the cylinder head and valve train dialed in is there anything else you suggest before we move on to the block and rotating assembly? What about push rods? Do you recommend billet pushrods?
Doug, whenever you are working on or building a high performance engine or pulling truck you need to have weak points. No matter how strong we build things, there is always a weak point. I always try to make my weak point a quick, easy, cheap fix.
Stock Cummins push rods are $10-15 ea. If I install a set of aftermarket billet push rods, then yeah, they are stronger and will hold up to some crazy RPM's but if they don't give when things go wrong we are going to break some very hard to replace, expensive parts. In my personal opinion push rods are a good weak point to have. If you bend one it's as easy as removing the six 10mm valve cover bolts and pulling the rockers off and dropping in a couple of new push rods.
That is a lot more cost effective and time effective than tearing the engine down to fix a kissed piston or a bent valve.
Okay! I'm glad I asked that question.
So what do we need to do with the rotating assembly to make sure we don't send rods through the block at 1200 horse power?
First thing you need to do is ditch the split forged Common Rail rods. A stock Common Rail rod is forged as one piece and is then fractured to give us the rod cap.
These rods will start to walk on the crank at 4,000+ RPM and are known to fail at or above 900 horse power.
You can get a set of machined 12 valve or early 24 valve rods and those will hold up to 1000+ horse power. For added insurance I would have them shot peened and polished to give them even more strength.
Shot peening a metal surface will relieve the tensile stresses built up during the manufacturing of the part. This more than doubles the strength of that part, especially parts that have to be drilled or ground on after the initial casting of the part.
Another option on the rods is to purchase a high performance aftermarket rod intended for competition use. Carrillo Rods and Crower Rods are two of the aftermarket rods I have used on high horse power builds. They aren't cheap but they won't break!
To further insure your rotating assembly holds together you will want to balance the rotating assembly at 5-6000 RPM, even if you never plan on running the engine that hard it is a good time to go overboard.
I also use the Industrial Injections Gorilla Girdle for all of my customer's seeking a high horse power engine. They come with ARP main studs and keep the block from deflecting at high RPM. The top of the block is obviously solid, but the bottom of the block has nothing keeping the sides of the block from flexing.
The Gorilla Girdle ties the sides of the block together while also connecting them to the main caps, this makes for a very strong bottom end.
Okay, so it sounds like the bottom end of the engine and rotating assembly are pretty well bullet proof at this point, what about pistons? What do you recommend?
A guy could get pretty carried away with pistons; I would love to be able to throw a set of Monotherm's in every engine. It's hard to justify $3,100 for pistons when we know we can push a chamfered, ceramic coated piston to well over 1000 horse power without any issues. So I would have to say most guys will be just fine with a set of pistons from Industrial Injection.
Monotherm Piston Chamfered Coated Mahle Piston
What about the freeze plugs in the block? I have heard of guys blowing them out, what's up with that?
Well you can blow the freeze plugs out of the block on a fairly stock truck. It's as simple as starting a truck up cold and flogging it right from the get go. 40 PSI of boost pressure will blow the freeze plugs out of the block on a cold engine.
On a high horse power engine you can blow the freeze plugs out of the block due to the massive amount of boost you will see under wide open throttle especially if there is a substantial load against the engine, Sled Pulling would be a perfect example.
I generally try to talk guys into getting a set of billet freeze plug retainers if they are going to be building more than 80 pounds of boost. It's just good insurance.
Okay, so now we have a dialed in long block. Where do we go from here?
Well you need fuel and air to make this whole build really worth it. Let's start with the fuel side of things.
I am not a big fan of big single modified CP3's they are grumpy in a daily driven truck and aren't going to live a long happy life.
I would recommend twin 33% over CP3's. I have used this setup on a daily driven truck and they have very good street manors and will support 1200 horse power no problem. Industrial Injections has really invested a lot of time and money into making their modified CP3's the best on the market. I use their pumps on my personal truck as well as many satisfied customer's trucks.
Some people say dual feeding the fuel rail will damage injectors. This is not true; the common misconception here is based off the fact that you have to get rid of the rail pressure relief valve. With the valve removed you now have two ports to feed the rail. Some guys think that since the rail has no way to return fuel you will over pressurize the injectors causing them to crack or split. The bottom line here is, you would have to be able to command around 40,000 PSI to split an injector body. Between the FCA and Rail Pressure sensor we do not have the ability to command or read pressures that high. I ran a dual feed line setup into the fuel rail on my 2003 Cummins for more than 300,000 miles with the same set of injectors. I am running the same dual feed setup on my current 2007 Cummins. It will work just fine and ensures the rail is never sucked dry.
Some good information I have received from Brady at Industrial Injections, don't push these CP3's too hard. The old P-7100 Bosch pumps love a lot of supply pressure. A CP3 pump does not, 8-10 PSI of supply is plenty? I run two FASS 150 pumps mounted on the frame for a build like this. Each pump feeding its own CP3 and feeding at only 10PSI.
For injectors you are going to need something substantial, I would start with a set of 65 liter per minute injectors. Those will move enough fuel for 1200 horse and with a good tune they will not be horribly smoky.
So what about air, what kind of turbo combo are you thinking?
Man you could do about 10 different turbo setups for a build like this. I would just keep it simple, Industrial Injections race twins have been in production for years and people have been pushing them well over 1000 horse power. I go to their dyno event every year and see at least one truck with those compounds that lays down a cool 1200 horse.
I am running the Silver 64 over and S483 and that setup spools awesome on the street and makes the power needed for the sled and the track.
If I was doing a purpose built pulling truck I would go with an Aurora 5500 Clipped 2.6 with a 66mm Inducer. The 0.90 A/R that Clint uses in this turbo makes it easier to spool. This turbo will spool 400 RPM's faster than your standard S475 and produces an extra 100 horse power, they come with a billet wheel and utilize an 83mm turbine wheel. It isn't going to make 1200 horse but it will keep you in the 2.6 class and you will still be able to spool it.
Well Vinny I think we have just about everything covered on the engine side of things. I would love to get into the rest of the truck but we are just trying to cover the engine build for now. Thanks so much for your time and information, the pictures are great!
Doug the pleasure was all mine! Your school is doing some really great things, most diesel programs just cover class 8 basics and never give the new generation of diesel enthusiasts any information about Performance based light duty diesels. It really is addicting once you see what these trucks are capable of.

Trend Alert: Pattern Mixing!!
While browsing the NYFW's street styles, we spotted another major trend, Pattern Mixing! Bold and subtle patterns have been seen in many big maison's runway shows the past couple seasons, and they returned for SS12 as well. This trend is just fun to look at, and it's simply great to be able to have two favorite patterns in one look! Let's get started with familiar prints like stripes, florals, and dots, and on the top you can basically put any other print you like, such as animal, tribal, abstract, and geometric. These brave fashionistas in the top image are mixing unique patterns and playing! Here are couple of looks, suggested by Aloha Rag.
Left: 3.1 Phillip Lim Leather Riders Jacket, Comem des Gracons Cardigan, Thakoon Soft Pants, Ann Demeulemeester Galaxy Print Scarf, Golden Goose Francy Sneakers
Right: The Row Fox Fur Vest, ALC Stripe Long-Sleeve Tee, Dries Van Noten Dress, 3.1 Phillip Lim Satchel, Gabriela Areigas Cube Necklace, Giuzeppe Zanotti Leopard Heels

Basically, i made the first 20 seconds, then hit a solid wall. How was i going to make a song out of this? Eventually i managed to ease in some other melodies and rhythms and i think it turned out better than i expected.
I had no idea which genre to stick this in so if you have an idea please let me know.
I hope you enjoy this song i tried to make it as upbeat and cheerful as possible, well to an extent anyway.
Hope this brightens up your day and i enjoy reading you feed back.
Thanks, Fat-Barry.

Nice work.
You've held it all together with that cool bass line all the way through. Good job.

Great piece
The xylophone has a very cheery spirit to it and I like how it worked with the bass to drop one of the funkiest beats that I have heard in a very long time. The violin here sounded beyond incredible. The drums played quite quickly and that was possibly my favorite part of it as well.
The beat just seems to play up a very cheerful piece to it and I really like how it goes. It kind of feels like something that would make you just want to bob your head for most or all day. Excellent piece.
Overall, loved this funky piece.

Things I liked:they are fast movers
Things I would have changed:the sight picture is so much different that with regular lead pellets that a major resight in is required when using them.
What others should know:I test all rifle pellets for penetration in milk jugs filled with water. the light weight pellets will not penetrate clear through 1 jug. This may be a good thing but not for hunting. A 22 grain 22 cal pellet will go all the way through at least 2 milk jugs which is makes it a good small game pellet.
Things I liked:Design!Design!design!, Finally, Crosman came out with their Premier "SuperPoint" in .22, It's a shame it had to be in an alloy composition.I'm a Number One fan of the superpoint in .177, The pellet flies like a spiral thrown by Joe Namath, excellent accuracy, and distance, Why Crosman would put this pellet out at just 2gr higher than the .177 round is beyond me. This round needs to put out in LEAD @ 14.3gr, just like the rest of the Premier Line-Up. Mind You, This pellet does fill a niche, It's an excellent choice for my Daisy 622X .22 Co2 pistol, and my Webley Alecto .22 pistol, where it absolutely shines, and has proven to be a lethal combo for grouse/partridge/pheasant hunting from the tree stand during Deer season.
Things I would have changed:Add a little weight, and thin down the skirt's so they engage the rifling a little better, The hardness of the alloy doesn't allow for good rifling engagement. Also, for what is being offered, The price is way too high, comparable offerings from H&N, namely their Baracuda Green, and Field Target Trophy Green rounds, are of higher quality, and offered at a very competitive price, are my choice for .22 alloy round's
What others should know:Even w/ the larger than life price tag, they do perform exceptionally well in low-mid powered rifles(anything under the 500fps rule, and most "Chinese" a/g's), as well as excellent performance in any/all .22 Co2/PCP/Multi-pump pistol, Performs well in Crosman 2240's/2289's/1322's.
Things I liked:Cool looking alloy and realllly light weight. Light weight equals speed, and yes they are speedy. But lack the same accuracy of the lead pellet.

Start Your Own Medical Marijuana Perpetual Harvest Cycle

Tips and Tricks

A monthly harvest means always having new buds ready.
(Click to enlarge)
Disaster sometimes strikes in your medical marijuana grow room. Losing a crop to mold, mites, or carelessness after spending several months caring for it can be detrimental, if not devastating. This is where that old expression "Don't put your eggs in one basket" comes into play.
Perpetual harvesting provides a better way to grow and allows one to match supply with demand, even when disaster strikes. This method of gardening is pretty simple and mostly revolves around timing, dedication and a basic knowledge of what you're growing. Once you've got it down you can really fine tune quality and yield.
Most beginners only have one light and one area to grow in. This allows them to harvest every three months at most. After a while, most purchase a second light for vegetative growth. Now they can harvest every two months, because as soon as harvest time rolls around, the new plants in the "veg" room will be large enough to be transitioned into flower.
Both of these plans, however, can lead to an eventual loss that could set a grower back. Especially if that grower is growing to support a medical marijuana collective.
The Plan (How To Get Started)
The word perpetual means everlasting, and flowers that bloom continuously are called "perpetuals." Envision perpetual harvesting as a circular way of growing, where the loop never ends until you want it to. When you harvest, there are plants ready to replace what was chopped down, and likewise there are plants right behind those to take their place. It's a cycle that requires attention to detail and a little hard work, but it pays off in the end because there is always more on the way.
To begin the cycle, you'll need the proper lighting:
- A single T5 strip to clone under.
- A vegetative light to grow plants tall enough to be flowered. (I would suggest a 400-watt metal halide as you get more vigorous growth, but a four-foot-four-bulb T5 is sufficient.)
- Two bloom lights, so you can harvest one light per month.
The bloom room should be separate from your veg room as these two cycles run on different light schedules – 18 hours of light for growth and only 12 to induce flowering. Now that you have your lights, you need to set up your rooms to the proper conditions. (Check out this article to see what the "Ideal" conditions are.)
Once your rooms are set up for success you're ready to begin Phase 1: Taking clones or raising seeds.
Clones vs Seeds
The benefits of clones make them best for the perpetual harvest method, because it is important to keep the same genetics within a particular strain so a grower knows what to expect, and its good to eliminate the males ASAP. It would be a waste a time, space, and quite frankly a bitch to grow up a male just to kill it later. Better to know what you are working with.
You should take clones at the beginning of every month or after harvesting. If you're good at taking clones then setting yourself up for a perpetual harvest should be a breeze. If you're not, it's ok. Just take more clones. Because of the cyclical nature of perpetual harvesting, you always have plants in all phases of growth. You can take clones whenever you want, as long as you have them ready to go when the plants ahead of them are ready to move on. If you get an overstock, sell them off or give a cool present to a friend in the form of a small marijuana plant.
Now that your babies are ready and rooted it's time to get them growing and into bloom.
Coming soon… Part II - Speeding up the veg, blooming, harvesting and simple tricks to stay on a schedule.

Great staff, very helpful. Great rooms. And a good location - Anonymous
Great service - heard about French not speaking English,but that was definitely not the case in Le Fabe. Breakfast,although continental,was not small - in fact it was served as a buffet. And for sure was the best option considering the price (10 €).We were concerned whether the hotel would look as it did on the pictures,and were reliefed once we saw it "live". It certainly matched our expectations - Krzysztof
It was actually my dad who stayed in the hotel and he told me everything was great, staff really made the effort to comunicate to him even if he speaks only portuguese and rooms were perfectly clean, spacious and confortable. Metro station just by the hotel which quickly puts you in contact with the whole city. Great experience. - Marcelo
The staff are absolutely fantastic. - Peter
The staff at this hotel is specially friendly and helpful. They had
a nice breakfast available every morning and the hotel is
exceptionally well located right next to the Paris metro station
with access to all of Paris. - Anonymous
This hotel was extremely clean and the Front Desk staff (Christian) wasexceptionally helpful. The hotel was in a good location, close to otherstreets with cute cafes and shops. It is a little bit of a walk to themetro station. - Anonymous
the breakfast was lovely,particually if you asked for room service,the presentation was fantastic and we wernt expecting smoked salmon on the menu either at no extra charge for the salmon or the service.brilliant - Darren
(1) Clean room (2) very nice staff (3) close to metro station (4) free hot coffee, cold mineral water, and apple or orange (5) TV and air conditioner - Zhijun
The staff were lovely, the room was spotless, the beds comfortable and the hotel is in a great position. The Rue Daguerre is a fantastic market and cafe strip and it's brilliant to be able to walk down the road and take in the atmosphere. Two nearby Metro stations make it very easy to reach the sights of Paris. The free wi-fi supplied by the hotel was a great bonus too. - Anonymous
The hotel was very close to the metro which helped us a lot. The lady at the reception was very nice and helpful.... - Anonymous

BASEL, SWITZERLAND—Zurab Makharadze, head of the Center of Archaeology at the Georgian National Museum in Tbilisi, announced the discovery of a timber burial chamber containing two four-wheeled, oxen-pulled chariots at the International Congress on the Archaeology of the Ancient Near East at the University of Basel. The burial, which contained the remains of seven individuals, was found in a kurgan in the south Caucasus. "One of them was a chief and others should be the members of his family, sacrificed slaves or servants," Makharadze told Live Science. Ornamented clay and wooden vessels, flint and obsidian arrowheads, leather and textiles, a wooden armchair, carnelian and amber beads, and 23 gold items were also recovered from the 4,000-year-old burial. "The purpose of the wooden armchair was the indication to power, and it was put in the kurgan as a symbol of power," Makharadze explained.
LIMA, PERU—Twenty-five well-preserved quipus, made of multiple knotted wool and cotton strings of different colors, were discovered at the archaeological complex of Incahuasi in Peru's Lunahuana Valley. Quipus, which are thought to have been used for record keeping, are usually found in a funerary context, but this collection was unearthed in warehouses, or kallancas. This is "what makes us believe they were used for administrative purposes," archaeologist Alejandro Chu, who is in charge of the site, told Peru This Week.
MADRID, SPAIN—Reuters reports that Spain has returned 691 artifacts to Colombia, including 3,000-year-old ceramics, busts, sculptures, and jewelry, which were seized in 2003 in a drug-trafficking, money-laundering case. The items had been held at Madrid's Museum of America until Colombia petitioned Spain's High Court for their repatriation. "In addition to economic value, the pieces' greatest value comes from their roots, which is an expression of history itself, of culture and of every nation's soul," Police General Director Ignacio Cosido said at a ceremony at the museum, where the artifacts were handed over to Colombian officials. The remaining three hundred seized artifacts will remain at the museum while Spanish officials determine where they belong.
PIONEER, LOUISIANA—The monumental earthworks at Poverty Point are one of seven sites from around the world that have been added to the list of UNESCO World Heritage sites, according to a report from Reuters. The 3,400-year-old Poverty Point complex was a major political, trade, and ceremonial center built by hunter gatherers. It consists of six mounds and six C-shaped ridges surrounding a central plaza. One of the mounds is about 2,000 years older than the others. "The impressive site survives as a testament to Native American culture and heritage," the U.S. State Department responded to the announcement in a statement.
CHILLICOTHE, OHIO—National Park Service archaeologists excavating in an area known as the Great Circle at Hopewell Culture National Historical Park have found stains of darker soil that they think could be evidence of a woodhenge, or circular enclosure of wooden posts, built between 1,600 and 2,000 years ago. "I am very confident that those represent wooden posts," team leader Bret Ruby told The Columbus Dispatch. The Great Circle measures 375 feet in diameter and was identified by magnetic testing several years ago. The excavation has also uncovered a six-inch-long stone tool that may have been used for cutting wood or digging.
PORTSMOUTH, ENGLAND—Science Daily reports that England's National Astronomy Meeting, which is being held this week, will highlight developments in archaeo-astronomy, which some researchers propose to rename "skyscape archaeology." According to Fabio Silva of University College London, and co-editor of the new Journal for Skyscape Archaeology, "We have much to gain if the fields of astronomy and archaeology come together to a fuller and more balanced understanding of European megaliths and the societies that built them….To understand what alignments meant to prehistoric people and why they decided to incorporate them into their structures, we need to identify patters and interactions between structures, landscape and skyscape."
WARM SPRINGS, MONTANA—A jawbone, ribs, and other bone fragments thought to be 2,000 years old were discovered by a camper on the side of a road near Warm Springs, Montana. The bones and part of a bow that had been covered by a pile of rocks and were eventually recovered by police. Once it was determined that the bones were not modern, they were handed over to Stan Wilmoth, state archaeologist with the Montana Historical Society. The authorities are examining the burial site to determine if the remains were found on state or federal land. If they were on state land, the bones will be handled by the Montana Burial Preservation Board. If the site was on federal land, the bones will go to the Deer Lodge National Forest's archaeologist. "We're just kind of in a holding pattern right now," Wilmoth told The Montana Standard.
IZMIR, TURKEY—The demolition of 175 buildings in Izmir's Kadifekale neighborhood has revealed the stage walls and entrance of a Roman-era amphitheater. The theater, which was studied in the early twentieth century by Austrian architects and archaeologists Otto Berg and Otto Walter, is thought to have accommodated 16,000 people. According to Hurriyet Daily News, the municipality of Izmir plans to restore the structure and use it for shows and concerts.
PLYMOUTH, MASSACHUSETTS—A team made up of archaeologists and volunteers is looking for traces of the seventeenth-century palisade built by the Pilgrims to protect Plymouth. This original settlement is thought to have sat atop a hill that became a cemetery by the end of the seventeenth century. Ground-penetrating radar has guided the team to an area without graves, where they have found foundations of nineteenth-century structures and artifacts. The researchers think that the nineteenth-century homes may have been built on top of early seventeenth-century homes. "If we could find the remains of the original settlement it would be a huge find…We're digging here in part because we think we might be close to where one of these [palisade] walls came down from Burial Hill," archaeologist David B. Landon of the University of Massachusetts Boston told The Boston Globe.
ALEXANDRIA, EGYPT—Ahram Online reports that a Russian team of researchers has recovered guns, pistols, and cannons from Le Patriot, a ship in Napoleon Bonaparte's fleet in 1798, from wreckage on the northern side of Pharos Island in the city's eastern harbor. Mohamed Mostafa, director of Egypt's underwater archaeology department, said that the artifacts will be restored at the Grand Egyptian Museum.
JERUSALEM, ISRAEL—The Jerusalem Post reports that archaeologists from The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Azusa Pacific University in Los Angeles, and Cornell University are conducting the first excavations at Tell Avil al-Qamh, strategically located in northern Israel near the borders of Canaanite, Aramean and Phoenician lands and the road to Damascus. So far, Iron Age structures dating to the twelfth and eleventh centuries B.C. have been uncovered with the help of volunteers, including a feature that may have been a tower overlooking the Huleh Valley to the south. Among the recovered artifacts are a Phoenician ring flask, typically used for holding precious oils or drugs; and a small jug containing pieces of hacksilver, which may have been used as a means of exchange.
BRISTOL, ENGLAND—A wooden box filled with pottery, seeds, and animal bones that may have come from Sir Leonard Woolley's excavations of Ur in the 1920s and '30s has been found in the University of Bristol's Department of Archaeology and Anthropology, in an area slated for a new state-of-the-art radiocarbon dating facility. The items turned out to be the remains of food offerings left in a royal tomb at least 4,500 years ago. "The remaining mystery is how this material came to be at Bristol in the first place. The environmental remains themselves were published in 1978 in Journal of Archaeological Science. The authors of that study were based at the Institute of Archaeology, London, and at the University of Southampton, and none of them had any known connection to the University of Bristol that might explain how the material came to reside here. If anyone can shed light on this mystery, we'd would love to hear from them," said archaeologist Tamar Hodos. The artifacts will be housed at the British Museum, one of the sponsors of the original excavation.
ST LOUIS, MISSOURI—Excavations at the Sanyangzhuang site and the Anshang site along China's lower Yellow River flood plain, and analysis of sedimentary soils deposited along the Yellow River over thousands of years, indicate that people were changing the environment nearly 3,000 years ago. "Human intervention in the Chinese environment is relatively massive, remarkably early, and nowhere more keenly witnessed than in attempts to harness the Yellow River," archaeologist T.R. Kidder announced at Washington University. The large-scale levees and other flood-control systems, such as those at the Anshang site, are thought to have made periodic flooding much worse, including a catastrophic flood circa A.D. 14-17 that buried the Sanyangzhuang site and may have triggered the collapse of the Western Han Dynasty. "Our evidence suggests that the first levees were built to be about 6-7 feet high, but within a decade the one at Anshang was doubled in height and width. It's easy to see the trap they fell into: building levees causes sediments to accumulate in the river bed, raising the river higher, and making it more vulnerable to flooding, which requires you to build the levee higher, which causes the sediments to accumulate, and the process repeats itself. The Yellow River has been an engineered river—entirely unnatural—for quite a long time," Kidder explained.
MADRID, SPAIN—An analysis of 17 skulls from Sima de los Huesos in the Atapuerca Mountains of northern Spain indicates that they have distinct Neanderthal traits, including robust lower jaws, small teeth at the rear of the jaw, and thick brow ridges with a distinctive double arch. Yet they also have relatively small brains and other primitive features. Paleoanthropologist Juan Luis Arsuaga of Complutense University and his colleagues report in Science that the fossils represent the "oldest reliably dated" specimens of proto-Neanderthals, at 430,000 years old. "It is now clear that the full suite of the Neanderthal characteristics did not evolve at the same pace," he told Phys.org. The discovery also suggests that Neanderthals and modern humans developed their big brains independently.
CAMBRIDGE, ENGLAND—An egg laid by the parasite Schistosoma has been found in the soils of a child's grave at Tell Zeidan in Syria. This is the first confirmation that the infection existed in Mesopotamia, and is the oldest-known Schistosoma infection, occurring more than 6,000 years ago. Piers Mitchell of the University of Cambridge and his team collected sediments from the pelvic areas of 26 sets of skeletal remains that had been buried in a cemetery of the Ubaid people, who were farmers. "A lot of different parasites—pinworms, hookworms, tapeworms—cannot infect you if you are moving a lot of time," Mitchell told Science. These parasites may have been living in freshwater snails, their temporary hosts, in the Ubaid's innovative irrigation canals.
NORTHUMBERLAND, ENGLAND—A French volunteer excavator has unearthed an extremely rare gold coin from the fourth-century level of the Roman fort at Vindolanda. "I thought it can't be true, it was just sitting there as I scraped back the soil, shining, as if someone had just dropped it," Marcel Albert told Culture 24. The well-worn aureus was minted around A.D. 64 or 65 and bears Nero's image, so it was in circulation for some 300 years before it was lost. Beads, brooches, rings, leather shoes, arrowheads, pottery, an iron spoon, and a gaming counter have also been recovered this year.
SASKATOON, CANADA—An early Bronze Age skull unearthed in a cemetery northwest of Siberia's Lake Baikal was analyzed by bioarchaeologist Angela Lieverse of the University of Saskatchewan and scientists at Canadian Light Source. The skull is missing the two front incisors of the lower jaw, although there is not a large gap between the existing teeth and the jaw appears normal at first glance. The tip of a stone projectile is also lodged just below where the two incisors should be. The man had been buried with a nephrite disk and four arrowheads, one of which was broken and found in his eye socket. The team reconstructed the arrowhead fragment using advanced imaging techniques. "We discovered that the missing teeth had nothing to do with the projectile. Turns out that this individual had a rare case of agenesis—where the two central incisors never formed—a genetic trait that affects less than half of a percent of all people," Lieverse told Phys.org. And the projectile tip was a piece of the arrowhead that had been placed in the man's eye socket. The point may have been removed from the wounded man's face during a violent confrontation or before burial.
ROME, ITALY—Italy is seeking funds to restore the Domus Aurea, Nero's "Golden House," before it collapses. The palace, which has been closed to visitors for the past ten years, sits beneath a park whose mature trees have roots in the palace's vaulted roof. Water from the heavy layer of soil seeps into the bricks and damages the frescoes. Archaeologists from Italy's cultural heritage ministry have suggested removing the trees and tons of the soil, in order to construct a new, lighter garden designed to protect the ancient structure. "The state has very limited resources unfortunately. This is an opportunity for a big company to sponsor an extraordinary project, which will capture the world's attention. It would be scandalous if no one comes forward," Dario Franceschini, Italy's minister for cultural heritage, told The Telegraph.
VIENNA, AUSTRIA—Ground-penetrating radar and aerial photography have helped scientists from the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Archaeological Prospection and Virtual Archaeology and the Central Institute for Meteorology and Geodynamics discover what is thought to be the earliest Roman military encampment at the Archaeological Park Carnuntum, located on the Danube River in lower Austria. The Austrian Times reports that while investigating the area outside the western gate of the Roman town, the team found the encampment, which was fortified with a ditch, beneath the traces of a large village along the Roman road to Vindobona (Vienna).
TIOGA, NORTH DAKOTA—Archaeologists struggling to find jobs may have a surprising new place to look. According to the Great Falls Tribune, the oil boom in North Dakota has created an urgent need for professionals to fulfill the state's requirements that the land be thoroughly surveyed and documented by trained archaeologists before oil drilling takes place. There are now more than 50 cultural resource management firms and several hundred archaeologists working in North Dakota looking for evidence of past human habitation in the region, which includes, among many types of sites, settler graveyards, Native American stone circles, and homesteader farms.

Jennifer Lawrence, who plays central character Katniss in "The Hunger Games" movies, is in Atlanta to film sequel "Catching Fire."
She's been in town for a couple of weeks and has been spotted a couple of times already enjoying Atlanta's cuisine scene.
The other day she and fellow cast members including Philip Seymour Hoffman, who will play Plutarch Heavensbee in "Catching Fire," had dinner at Lure. Tuesday night she had dinner at Watershed.
The new Peachtree Road location of Watershed, which moved from Decatur, has quickly become a go-to spot for visiting celebs. In recent months the staff has served its famous fried chicken and other Southern comfort vittles to a slew of bold names, including Reese Witherspoon, Colin Firth, Jane Fonda and Vince Vaughn.

Cook Time:

This is a wonderful easy side dish to chicken or meat and any leftovers freeze wonderful, it may also be baked in a 10-inch deep-dish pie plate and cut into wedges, this may be doubled but I would still only use one package or spinach or maybe 1-1/2 packages adding in too much spinach will overpower all other ingredients, prep time does not include cooking the rice --- FOR FREEZING prepare recipe as directed but do not bake, wrap pan in plastic wrap then tightly in foil and freeze, to serve thaw over night in refrigerator, remove wrapping bake at 350°F for 25-30 minutes or until hot.

It take a while...
By spud
from farnborough hants
It is quite scary when you see all the different parts in just a piece of stiker paper that seems a tetrix more than the thing that you order. But after the first shock, with patience and being carefully the final result is really good.

I love my sticker
By Louie
from Long Beach, CA
instructions were very unclear. measurements were in centimeters. It needed 2 people to put it up.It looks great!
Much better than you'd first think !
By jerdaly
from newcastle upon tyne
Looks like it will be really small when it arrives but once you start to piece it together it really is quite large. As with other decals you need to take your time and be qute meticulous. It took 3 of us almost 2 hours to put it up, we were being super cautious but it came out fantastic - we've even had passers by on the street stopping and pointing in !

A Perfect Circle has unveiled the full track list for their upcoming greatest hits album, Three Sixty . The compilation album arrives in stores on November 19 and will feature 13 songs, including the previously unreleased single "By and Down."
"[Guitarist] Billy [ Howerdel ] and I created A Perfect Circle out of a now long-running friendship, and I think the music we have made reflects that personal connection and has given us the ability to further develop and trust our intuition," says frontman Maynard James Keenan in a statement. "I feel Three Sixty is an accurate representation of that friendship and those instincts."
Three Sixty will be available in standard and deluxe formats. The deluxe edition includes live versions of "People are People," "3 Libras," "Gravity" and "Fiddle and the Drum," as well as the studio version of "The Package" from 2003's Thirteenth Step .
In other A Perfect Circle News, the band is also set to release a limited-edition box set, A Perfect Circle Live: Featuring Stone and Echo , on November 26. That package includes 3-CDs of live performances and a DVD of the band's August 2011 concert at the Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, CO.

Yeah I love Severus and Hermione together. If you think the age gap is way too big then I don't expect you to believe that Alan Rickman is the hottest man alive.
I just think these two characters are meant to be together, that's my opinion :)
( btw I respect J.K. Rowling's work - obviously - but I can't stand Hermione and Ron as a couple ).
PS: If Alan hadn't made me cry in the last HP movie, I would hate the Severus / Lily. I don't think she deserved Severus, but then again, everybody's entitled to their own opinion.
See? Its not so unbelievable!
I think it's important to remember, too, that, although Alan Rickman and Emma Watson may have significant age gaps, book...
I'm not a fan of Sev/Hermione, just rebloggin for the gifs.

The Detroit Red Wings announced this week, to no surprise, that they would not be bringing back forward Robert Lang for next season. Lang came to Detroit in 2003-04 from the Washington Capitals during a career-high season, in which he had 74 points in 63 games for the Caps. Lang, during the 2004 playoffs, was agreeably the team's best player and performed well up until this season.
During the 2006-07 campaign, however, Lang's play was uninspiring and he racked up just 52 points, his lowest total since he had 50 points during the 2001-02 campaign (he only played 62 games that season). He also played poorly and minimally in the playoffs this past season, mustering only eight points in 18 playoff games. The money they were paying him will help make room for Pavel Datsyuk's contract.
Entry Draft
For just the second time in recent memory, the Red Wings actually had a first round pick. They opted for defenseman Brendan Smith of St. Michael's in the Ontario Provincial Junior "A" Hockey League. Smith put up 36 points in 39 games during the regular season and added nine points in seven games during the playoffs. Smith will play for the University of Wisconsin in the fall.
The Red Wings next pick was a third rounder (88th overall) and they took Swedish center Joakim Andersson. Andersson had 46 points in 41 games for Frölunda in the Swedish junior leagues this season. Both NHL Central Scouting and ISS said he is two-way forward, fitting the mold typical of a member of the Red Wings. Andersson is now added to the stockpiled Swedish talent the Red Wings have.
Detroit did not draft a goaltender in the draft as the last three players they selected were Randy Cameron (fifth round, 148th overall), Zack Torquato (sixth round, 178th overall) and Bryan Rufenach (seventh round, 208th overall). The team hinted that they were looking for a goaltender in some of the articles published in the local newspapers, but with no netminders projected to go in the first round, it would have been foolish to pick one with the 27th overall spot. By the time the 88th pick rolled around, top goaltenders Joel Gistedt (36th), Antoine Lafleur (48th), Trevor Cann (49th), Jeremy Smith (54th), Timo Pielmeier (83rd) and Josh Unice (86th) were all taken.
The Red Wings did what they always do in this year's entry draft, choose players that need time to develop. While none of them will be ready for the NHL anytime soon, most assuredly, Assistant General Manager Jim Nill found a diamond in the rough once again.
Hasek Returns, So Howard Remains in AHL
With Hasek coming back for one more season (although no contract has been signed), goaltending prospect Jimmy Howard will play at least one more season in the AHL (remember Ryan Miller took three years in the AHL after leaving college to a become a top goaltender). Last season Howard was 21-21-3 with a 2.7 GAA and a .911 SV %, not bad, but the Red Wings will be looking for better numbers next season before they let him test the waters of the NHL.
In the playoffs, however, Howard showed his potential as he went 3-4 with a remarkable 1.93 GAA and a solid .927 SV %. Somewhat puzzling, though, is the fact that as much as the Red Wings talk about Howard being their future, they gave him only a little over half of the starts during the season, as he split time with the other goaltending prospect Stefan Liv (who later decided to return to Sweden, leaving Howard with the full reigns).

The Peculiar Kind & TEDxMidAtlantic
A little over a week ago, the beautiful Cameron Russell asked TPK to speak at this years TEDx event in Washington D.C.
What is TEDx
TED conferences bring together the world's leading thinkers and doers for a series of talks, presentations and performances. TED events have been called "The ultimate brain spa," "Davos for optimists" and "A journey into the future, in the company of those creating it."
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED has created a program called TEDx. TEDx is a program of self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At TEDxMidAtlantic, live speakers will spark deep discussion and connection.
Because of the last minute preparation for TEDx, Episode NO. 3 will be posted next Friday, November 1st.

So due to the weather, I was going to go on a mission to find the workout room in my dorm building. Here's the thing…I really have no idea where it is. And when I tried to look for it, I found the supply closet. So I'm debating on weather to go out in the cold and wet to go to the rec center, or…if I try to do something in my room.
no more excuses.
Currently this only works for me if I don't sleep at all….erg…the life of a college student.

In light of yesterday's blog topic – storing things in your cleavage – I can't help but share this trend with you.
While Googling cleavage yesterday afternoon multiple NEW stories popped up about the trend of male cleavage – referred to as heavage. Apparently, man cleavage is in this season! (Guys, pull out your V-necks and open neck dress shirts.)
New York magazine reports that the male cleavage trend is based on beefier male models being used on runways and they are showing off their pecs. So male cleavage is back!
Here are some stories on the trend just posted yesterday:
New York: Hey, Men, Get Your Boobs Out!
Wall Street Journal: More men have something they want to get off their chests – their shirts
Gawker: Sexy Men are happy to show off their chests
Huffington Post: Man Cleavage is back!
So, are you IN to the man cleavage – also known as heavage? Do you want your honey unbuttoned and baring all this holiday season? What's their chest hair situation –

The Music Snobs // Episode 014: Erykah Badu
The TMS crew + Badu kick things off with an introspective look into the prolific career of Ghostface Killah and discuss the method behind Tony Starks' mad genius. Then Arthur, Isaac, Jehan, Scoop, and Erykah examine the long history of image within the music industry and try to draw a line between musicians who have used image to improve their art, and those whose image has overshadowed their music. Finally the crew engages in a wild rapid roundtable that poses an interesting question: What is the one song lyric you'd love to actually say in real life…but know you never will?
just listen..
