Basic Information
Sustainable materials management (SMM) is a systemic approach to using and reusing materials more productively over their entire lifecycles. It represents a change in how our society thinks about the use of natural resources and environmental protection. By examining how materials are used throughout their lifecycle, an SMM approach seeks to:
- Use materials in the most productive way with an emphasis on using less;
- Reduce toxic chemicals and environmental impacts throughout the material life cycle;
- Assure we have sufficient resources to meet today's needs and those of the future.
The Case for a Lifecycle Approach to Materials Management
How our society uses materials is fundamental to our economic and environmental future. Global competition for finite resources will intensify as world population and economies grow. More productive and less impactful use of materials helps our society remain economically competitive, contributes to our prosperity and protects the environment in a resource-constrained future.
U.S. and global consumption of materials has been increasing rapidly. People have consumed more resources in the last 50 years than all previous history. And of all the materials consumed in the U.S. over the last 100 years, more than half were consumed in the last 25 years. This increasing consumption has come at a cost to the environment, including habitat destruction, biodiversity loss, overly stressed fisheries and desertification. Materials management is also associated with an estimated 42 percent of total U.S. greenhouse gas emissions. Failure to find more productive and sustainable ways to extract, use and manage materials, and change the relationship between material consumption and growth, has grave implications for our economy and society.
By looking at a product's entire lifecycle we can find new opportunities to reduce environmental impacts, conserve resources, and reduce costs. For example, a product is re-designed so it is manufactured using different, fewer, less toxic and more durable materials. It is designed so that at the end of its useful life it can be readily disassembled. The manufacturer maintains a relationship with the customer to ensure best use of the product, its maintenance and return at end-of-life. This helps the manufacturer identify changing needs of their customers, create customer loyalty, and reduce material supply risk. Further, the manufacturer has a similar relationship with its supply chain, which helps the manufacturer respond more quickly to changing demands, including reducing supply chain environmental impacts.

A Lifecycle Perspective
Materials have environmental impacts throughout their lifecycles. The major stages in a materials lifecycle are raw material
acquisition, materials manufacture, production, use/reuse/maintenance, and waste management.

This 100% Bed Bug Proof Mattress Encasing is lab-tested and certified to *completely* block bed bugs. Unlike normal bedding, which is easily penetrated, beg bugs are not able to bite through this specially designed mattress cover. In addition, the heavy duty BugShield Zipper System completely encases your mattress, preventing bed bugs from escaping an already infested mattress or keeping a new one 100% bed bug free.
How it Works:
This bed bug proof zippered mattress encasing is made from a special stretch knit polyester fabric fused to a unique high temperature urethane membrane, creating a completely impenetrable barrier to bed bugs (and dust mites, too). This means that you have 100% protection, ensuring absolutely no bed bugs, dust mites, danders, or any other allergens can pass through the fabric. The unique membrane also makes this mattress cover 100% waterproof, so you are completely protected from stains and spills.
BugShield Zipper System:
The rust-proof zipper features an auto-locking Zipper-Lock which prevents the zipper from accidentally sliding open; once closed, the zipper tab will not backtrack or open on its own - it must be pulled open. The BugShield Bug Blocker also provides an extra level of protection by adding an additional fabric shield below the zipper closure. This added barrier ensures that bed bugs will not be able to get in or out of the encasing.
Features and Benefits:
California King 72"x84" is Available in 3 Depths:
The 9" deep bed bug encasings will cover a mattress up to 10" deep. For mattresses that are between 10" and 13", select the 12" Depth. Mattresses that are between 13" and 16" will need the 16" Depth. If you are unsure which depth mattress cover you need, it is always best to get the deeper encasing, as you can always tuck in any extra material underneath the mattress. Please carefully measure the depth of your mattress to determine which depth encasing you should order.

Well last weeks admissions of secret shame was so much fun I decided to try it again this week. One of my favourite movies is Little Shop of Horrors. Now if asked in the real world, I would certainly fib and pick something more along the lines of The Usual Suspects, Dances With Wolves, Malcolm X, or even Fried Green Tomatoes. Secretly I must admit however that I have a special place in my weirdo heart for Little Shop of Horrors. I like it so much that I couldn't chose a favourite scene, and so this week I'm putting up two clips. Hit me in the comment section with your secret shame movies.

Whatever! Little Shop of Horrors is one of my all time favorite movies! There is nothing to be ashamed of!

- T. R Xands said...
I'm with Constintina, if LSOH is something to be ashamed of then I'll be stoned. That movie is my shit!
As for an actual secret shame...I dunno, I have a special place in my heart for Star Trek movies. I'd never admit that in public so you didn't see me say that.

Hmmm, I'll admit sometimes I still like Disney movies...

Mine would have to be either the sister act movies or the mighty ducks movies. I love them so much.
and LSOH is fucking awesome my husband has never seen it and it blows my mind

@mzbitca wow mighty ducks...I guess it could be worse you could have said Howard the Duck
- October 26, 2008 at 11:05 AM

Ducks fly together
Can you get any more inspiring?
At least Little Shop of Horrors has some cult credit

Two secret shames:
The Bodyguard. The combination of Whitney Houston's incredible voice and Kevin Costner's character as a stoic, deadly, and hunky bodyguard is irresistible.
The Beautician and the Beast. Fran Drescher as a New York beautician and Timothy Dalton as an Eastern European potentate. How can it be anything but hilarious!
- October 26, 2008 at 2:52 PM
- Renee said...
@Bryn you are a better woman that I, Drescher's voice sends me right around the bend.
- October 26, 2008 at 4:33 PM
I miss Mr. Levi Stubbs. He totally made this movie.
My guilty pleasure is Animal House. Awesome sound track.
I loved Babe, too. Great anti-conformist message buried in a movie for the wee ones. I cried like a baby.

Hey, it's not a shame: for our first Christmas together, I gave Mr. Feasance a copy of this film (he'd mentioned it as a childhood favorite) and a Venus flytrap. We still watch it together all. the. time; unfortunately, Audrey III left us about three months ago.
My secret shame is not so much the movie, but the fact that I dance along to Hairspray when I'm alone.

- Coolreds Rant said...
Best Little Whore House in Texas....does anyone remember that little gem? I watched it like 50 times in my teens...there is just something about Dolly and Burt romping in a bedroom in their underwear that really gets me to feeling fine....
- October 26, 2008 at 11:14 PM
- selkie said...
I like anything with dancing - I do - I admit it - even Footloose - truly; excpet Flashdance, I really really don't like Flashdance- but Strictly Ballroom is my eat chocolate and wallow movie - AWESOME.
Canadian Stage Company (really reaosnable tickets too) - did a production of Little Shop last year doug and I saw - it ROCKED.

- Danyell said...
I agree! Why "secret"? Why "shame"? This movie is glorious!!
- October 27, 2008 at 3:47 PM
Conan The Barbarian. There's something about the Governator at his worst. Plus, James Earl Jones as the head of an incomprehensibly stupid snake cult. What's not to love?
- October 27, 2008 at 4:10 PM
What's wrong with LSOH? Only shameful secret I have is that unlike most people who watched that film, I cheered for Audrey II and was crying when he was killed at the end. As you can probably guess...I would have preferred the original ending they ended up cutting out.
Then again, I tend to cheer for Godzilla when he's on the rampage....someone has to stand up for humans always being the protagonists...;)

You could sum up my father's reaction to my mother's first year of dementia in two words: Bad Waitress.
"Last week I asked her for eggs over easy and she scrambled them," he shouted over the phone one day in 2005. "Today it happened again."
I kept my tone neutral. "She didn't do it on purpose," I said. "She actually couldn't remember what you asked."
"The hell she couldn't," he snapped. "She's just not paying attention."
I tried defending her further, but he had already hung up.
When my father accompanied us to Mom's neurologist's office in Manhattan, the doctor displayed her brain CT scans on his computer screen. As he started to identify where the scar tissue from numerous small strokes had formed, disabling her memory and exacerbating her depression, my father, then 81, stretched out his legs, folded his arms and closed his eyes, feigning sleep.
Certainly, his capacity for denial was epic, though in fairness, my two brothers, sister and I were not far behind. We figured that whatever the doctors found, my 72-year-old mother would have the requisite surgery, take the necessary pills and snap out of it. She'd go back to being a psychology professor and college administrator, The One Who Was Always in Charge.
But then came the driving, the Mount Everest of aging-parent issues, the one that none of us could scale or deny. One day I watched her behind the wheel and it became clear she was lost in the suburban town she'd lived in for 40 years. Though she kept telling me we were going home, she had no idea how to get there. The drama not only exposed my mother's vulnerabilities as a driver but also precipitated a seismic shift between parent and adult child, a redefinition of authority and independence.
Control of the car keys is often a flash point for families dealing with dementia, I've since learned, because the disease makes it harder for a person to recognize when skills are fading. "It's the hottest topic we have," says Angela Lunde, a dementia education specialist at the Alzheimer's Disease Research Center at the Mayo Clinic. "In a disease with significant losses, the loss of driving ability happens early. Someone with even a mild dementing illness behind four tons of steel is not a good idea."
I understood my mother's passion for driving. At 3 she had contracted polio in a swimming pool in the Bronx, and although she didn't lose her ability to walk, it was never as easy for her as driving. To lose that mobility would be devastating.
Mom's neurologist was sympathetic. Of course she should keep driving, he assured her. All she needed to do was pass a simulated driving test at the nearby Burke Rehabilitation Center. She failed it. Twice.
My siblings and I looked to our father for guidance about Mom's situation, but he wasn't giving any. For the 50-plus years of their marriage, he had considered her the superwoman/wife/mom. She took care of their children, and she took care of him. The idea that he take care of her seemed to confound him. Putting the correct pills into the Morning, Noon and Night boxes of a plastic medication organizer proved such an ordeal, I had to cancel a business dinner and take a train from the city to do it myself.
This is not uncommon, says Lisa Gwyther, director of the Duke Family Support Program and an associate professor in the university's department of psychiatry. "A lot of spouses believe they're being disloyal to acknowledge incapacity in a spouse," she says. "That reflects on their choice, particularly with men. Many of them tell me, 'I need to believe she's going to get better in order to wake up every day and deal with her.'"
It became apparent that as a family, we needed some help. Our doctor put us in touch with a social worker, Roberta Epstein. With Mom now retired, Epstein and the doctor encouraged her to participate in recreational activities — painting classes, museum field trips. My mother's dismissal was scorching. She was too old for summer camp.
But the doctor prevailed. It was essential, he said, to have activities to look forward to. We enrolled her in ceramics, a poststroke exercise class and a weekly lecture series. Visits to the library, her longtime haven, were no longer possible; she had lost her ability to read. "By the end of a paragraph, I can't remember how it started," she admitted reluctantly.

Interpretive Handbook
8822 :
1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D, Serum
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
Vitamin D is a generic designation for a group of fat-soluble, structurally similar sterols including ergocalciferol D2 from plants and cholecalciferol D3 from animals. Vitamin D in the body is derived from 2 sources: exogenous (dietary: D2 and D3) and endogenous (biosynthesis: D3). Endogenous D3 is produced in the skin from 7-dehydrocholesterol, under the influence of ultraviolet light. Both forms of vitamin D are of similar biologic activity.
Vitamin D is rapidly metabolized in the liver to form 25-hydroxy (OH) vitamin D. Additional hydroxylation of 25-OH vitamin D takes place in the kidney by 1-alpha hydroxylase, under the control of parathyroid hormone, to yield 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D.
1,25-Dihydroxy vitamin D is the most potent vitamin D metabolite. It stimulates calcium absorption in the intestine and its production is tightly regulated through concentrations of serum calcium, phosphorus, and parathyroid hormone.
1,25-Dihydroxy vitamin D levels may be high in primary hyperparathyroidism and in physiologic hyperparathyroidism secondary to low calcium or vitamin D intake. Some patients with granulomatous diseases (eg, sarcoidosis) and malignancies containing nonregulated 1-alpha hydroxylase in the lesion may have elevated 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D levels and hypercalcemia.
1,25-Dihydroxy vitamin D levels are decreased in hypoparathyroidism and in chronic renal failure.
While 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D is the most potent vitamin D metabolite, levels of the 25-OH forms of vitamin D more accurately reflect the body's vitamin D stores. Consequently, 25HDN / 25-Hydroxyvitamin D2 and D3, Serum is the preferred initial test for assessing vitamin D status. However, in the presence of renal disease, 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D levels may be needed to adequately assess vitamin D status.
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
As a second-order test in the assessment of vitamin D status, especially in patients with renal disease
Investigation of some patients with clinical evidence of vitamin D deficiency (eg, vitamin D-dependent rickets due to hereditary deficiency of renal 1-alpha hydroxylase or end-organ resistance to 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D)
Differential diagnosis of hypercalcemia
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
1,25-Dihydroxy vitamin D concentrations are low in chronic renal failure and hypoparathyroidism.
1,25-Dihydroxy vitamin D concentrations are high in sarcoidosis and other granulomatous diseases, some malignancies, primary hyperparathyroidism, and physiologic hyperparathyroidism.
1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D concentrations are not a reliable indicator of vitamin D toxicity; normal (or even low) results may be seen in such cases.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
No significant cautionary statements.
Reference Values Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.
<16 years: 24-86 pg/mL

Supplies include 2 Rubber maid or Sterlite 18-22 gallon tubs with lids, 1 pond basket, and 1 pvc tube at least 1 1/2 inch diameter and 4 inches taller than the tub you buy.
Step 1: Cutting the water reservoir
it's called the EartTainer. Here is the link, It has some pretty detailed instructions.
The various designs presented here do not address this issue.
They also waste a considerable amount of plastic and money, by forcing you to use two bins, and leaving a substantial amount of these bins as refuse.
I used to employ a similar system, using nested 5 gallon buckets, and still do, since I can get those free from delis and restaurants. However, bins are expensive, and when I make them out of bins, I do not use the nested approach, as it is VERY wasteful. Instead I construct a platform using the center of the lid, cut slightly larger than the bottom of the bin and cut large hole in the top, essentially removing all the plastic except a support lattice. I then get 10 packs of embroidery plastic mesh and place it across the lid. I place supports inside the bottom of the bin (inverted plastic flower pots, or any number of other things) to support the platform I made from the lid, and place the lid into the bin, resting on the supports. I leave two to four gaps in the platform, and place pots (or cut PVC) right side up in those holes. When I fill with box, these gaps allow the soil to drop below the water level in the reservoir. I use the inverted pots as a marker for where to place the drain hole.
After the bin is full of soil, I take a sheet of plastic, stretch it over the top, and hold in place with the remaining ring from the lid.
In this way I am able to use a single bin for each planter.
I also have a gravity fed, self watering design, fed from a central water reservoir, but that is just way too complicated to describe.
A larger scale version is referred to as a wicking box. You can find a link to a very thorough article here.
I am currently building one of this on a cart with wheels. I need more than 1 container thus also looking at the 5gallon double buckets "dearthbox " version.
I am planning to use window screen mesh to cover up the aeration holes, to prevent the potting mix dropping into the reservior.
The time / steps it takes to build various DIY self water container versions is about same. If material cost is not a concern (i have a few spare rubbermaid bins), I wish to find the version that can hold the max amount of plants.
Your advice is welcome.
These are my DIY EarthBoxes from last summer. I followed this Instructable and it worked great. As you can see, I had good results on my peppers in about 30 days.
was missing a letter ;)
Another option. I had a clear plastic bin that had a crack along the outside. Since i couldn't use it for this project directly i decided to use it as a greenhouse during the early spring/summer until the plants got too tall or the temp got too warm. I drillled some holes in the bottom of the bin to allow for rain in and air circulation. I then inverted it and set it on top of the earth box. (I duct taped the crack), I think it helped my seedling since our last frost was a little later than expected
This greenhouse could be used for in the ground plants too. It's easily moveable and reusable and i can store it under one of my earthboxes during the winter. . After I didn't neeed it any longer as a green house I used it to carry my veggies in from the garden and I could rinse them off in the container cause the dirt/water would run out the bottom

As I'm talking to friends,employees or family members,I'll say something like
"My buddy JCCane,told me this about the Canes." or "You should have seen this picture
my buddy Vaark showed me".They ask me who is that and where do you know them from?"
I'll say "FinHeaven"..To them it's silly and just a message board.To me though,you guys are my
friends and family as much as my regular family and friends because we share a kindred spirit
called the MIAMI DOLPHINS".
This website is personal for me.
So before I get all teary eyed and we start singing KUM BY YA together,I just want to
say "Thank You"
I know maintaining all this is not easy.
Thank you guys, and thank you finheaven for giving me something to look forward to each day!

It recently occurred to me that the Spanish nuez can be translated to English as both "walnut" and "pecan." Is the same word really used for both types of nuts? How would you specify which nut you're talking about when the difference is important (say, in a recipe)?
At least in Colombia one usually would say nuez, generically, if the context doesn't require the specific kind of nut; in the case of a recipe (or in any other context in which the difference matters) we, of course, have (and use) different names:
And perhaps more that I cannot remember right now.
In Mexico
Hope it helps.
@jrdioko One must differentiate between the general case and the particular cases. @Gonzalo Medina has already pointed you several particular cases, but I'd like to address the general case.
The English word "nut" refers to all oily seeds produced by some wood trees and palm trees. It is the same for the Spanish word "nuez". When you refer to a particular case, you qualify the word making it narrower in meaning. In some cases you have a different word to refer to that particular case, e.g., "hazelnut/avellana". But your original premise is incorrect. "Nuez" does not mean "walnut" nor "pecan" nor it is a synonym of both either.
In the spanish of Peru, a walnut is known as a Nuez de Nogal and a pecan is known as a Pecana. Brazil nuts are Castanas (the n should have a cidilla) , peanuts which are originally from there are Mani or Manies. So your recipe would call for Nogales or Pecanas.

It's Time to Explore Orlando By Night at the Science Center
First and Third Saturday Evenings of the Month, beginning December 3
Crosby Observatory and Planetarium Shows Available until February 18
Orlando, FL – December 2, 2011 – The silver-domed Crosby Observatory atop the Orlando Science Center opened for seasonal sky-watching last month and continues every first and third Saturday from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. until Saturday, February 18. In addition, a planetarium show has now been added to the schedule so guests will explore the galaxy and then check out their place in the universe through one of the state's largest refractor telescopes.
Peer through the powerful, 10-inch lens of the refractor telescope to view visible moons and planets and deep sky objects such as galaxies, nebulas and more. Astronomy experts and volunteers will be on hand to make sure you get the best view possible. The observatory will be accessible from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. on the following Saturday evenings: December 3 and 17, January 7 and 21, February 4 and 18. Visitors can witness the wonders of the night sky as they observe moons, planets and other astronomical events.
In addition, guests can now experience a live planetarium show in the Dr. Phillips CineDome during their visit. Orlando By Night features the seasonal sky over Orlando with astronomy presenters identifying the constellation groupings hovering over the City Beautiful. They will also entertain visitors with legends related to constellations, including Orion the Hunter and the lovely Pleides. Discover how to let the stars be your guide by learning how to read the night sky. Orlando By Night will be presented on observatory nights at 5:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m.
Orlando By Night combined with stargazing in the Crosby Observatory offers a stellar experience for amateur astronomers of all ages. Enjoy this star-studded evening for only $10 for everyone (regular admission is usually $17 for adults, $12 kids). These tickets provide access to the observatory and the planetarium show only (the rest of the Science Center will be closed during sky-watching hours). This experience is free for Science Center members. The observatory-only admission fee of $7 is no longer available.

Silent allosteric modulators of metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGlu5) occupy allosteric sites but have no intrinsic modulator activity. Thus, such compounds have potential as crucial tools to dissect receptor function and efficacy of novel positive and negative allosteric modulators both in vitro and in vivo. Previous mGlu5 SAMs, VU0365396 and 5MPEP, have low affinity and are therefore limited in their utility as tools (1, 2). The mGlu5 acetylene PAM series is prone to "molecular switches" within the SAR and certain PAMs had previously been shown to exhibit these "molecular switches" when key residues within the the common allosteric site were mutated (3). Thus, this series was predicted to also contain hitherto unappreciated mGlu5 SAMs.
To identify and evaluate mGlu5 SAMs, we screened previously identified inactive compounds in an acetylene PAM series at 10uM, to confirm they were inactive. Confirmed "inactives" were then screened in a 3 pt binding assay to rapidly identify compounds that retained appreciable affinity for the common allosteric site and thus categorise these compounds as "SAMs". SAMs with sub-100nM affinities were then selected for determination of binding affinity, using a more rigorous 10 pt inhibition binding curve,

Creation and culture of the rat mGlu5 cell line. Monoclones of stable HEK293A cells expressing rat mGlu5 were generated, selected, and tested for functional Ca+2 response. The selected clone (designated as "R10A") exhibited robust Ca+2 response to addition of glutamate, demonstrated specific binding of the specific mGlu5 radioligand [3H]-mPEPy, and showed an mGlu5-postive signal in a Western blot analysis.
rmGlu5/HEK293A cells were cultured in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Media (DMEM) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), 20 mM HEPES, 1 mM sodium pyruvate, 0.1 mM NEAA, 2 mM L-glutamine, and 500 ug/ml G418 (Mediatech, Inc., Herndon, VA). All cell culture reagents were purchased from Invitrogen Corp. (Carlsbad, CA) unless otherwise noted.
Experiment Preparation.
Membrane preparations of rmGlu5/HEK293A cells were prepared as follows. Cells were harvested by trypsinization and pelleted in assay medium (DMEM, 20 mM HEPES, 10% dialyzed FBS, 1 mM sodium pyruvate). Cell pellets were snap frozen prior to re-suspension in ice cold homogenization buffer (recipe) and disruption with a Polytron homogenizer 3x10sec bursts, separated by 30sec on ice. Homogenates were centrifuged at 1000xg for 10min to clear nuclear and mitochonrial fractions, followed by centrifugation at 30000xg for 1 hr. The resulting pellet was resuspended in assay buffer (HBSS, 20 mM HEPES, 2.5 mM probenecid, pH 7.4) and stored at -80degrees until use.
Membrane preparations were diluted to give 50microgram/well. Test compounds were provided as 10 mM stocks in DMSO; final concentration of DMSO in the assay was 1%.
Displacement of [3H]methoxyPEPy binding to rmGlu5/HEK293A membranes by a range of concentrations of test compound (0.1nM to 10uM) was assessed as previously validated (2,3,4). Membranes (50microgram/well) were incubated with test compound and 2nM [3H]methoxyPEPy for 1 hr at romm teperature with skaing in assay buffer. Bound radiligand was separated from free by rapid filtration through GF/B filter plates (Perkin Elmer) with a 96 well plate Brandel cell harvester, with three washes with ice-cold binding buffer (0.9% NaCl, 50mM Tris, pH 7.4). Filter plates were allowed to dry overnight, prior to addition of 40uL Microscint20/well and determination of radioactivity using a TopCount six-detector plate reader (Perkin Elmer).

Pleasanton, CA (May 8, 2013) US Youth Region IV responded to requests from numerous elite teams and clubs by transforming its Far West Regional League into three divisions (leagues) and providing additional opportunities for teams to reach the Far West Regional Championships. Under this new format, the three divisions will be the California Regional League, the Four Corners League and the Northern League.
The California Regional League will receive two qualifying positions in the FWR Championships and the Four Corners League and Northern League will each receive one position. These new leagues will have the freedom to develop according to the needs of teams and clubs in their area under the supervision of the FWR League.
"We have been working on the concept of the California Regional league for some time now, with the involvement and input of Directors of Coaching from some of the top Cal North and Cal South clubs," said Cal South Board President John Mullen. "We have also had guidance and input from NCAA championship-winning college coaches to help us create this league, which will lower costs and reduce travel, while providing both top-level competition and maximum exposure for the players to college coaches, in addition to ODP and national coaching staffs. This is a great opportunity for the players, their parents, and the coaches who put so much effort into their teams."
Pete Zopfi Chairman of Cal North a driving force in pushing forward this exciting change adds "Dreams can come true! The history of youth soccer in Northern and Southern California is highlighted by the development of thousands of successful collegiate, national and professional male and female soccer players. Finally, the stars of the future will compete together in the California Regional League as the best teams of Cal North and Cal South provide collegiate coaches, national coaches and professional scouts the opportunity to see the best players in the nation without significant financial challenges and excessive travel prohibiting players from being discovered. Yes, dreams can come true!"
Work has already begun on the California Regional League to prepare for implementation of a fall 2013 season with qualifying for the 2014 FWR Championships.

What elite talent did flacco have this year that he didn't last year?
On what planet is mark Sanchez even a comparable qb in regular season? Flacco has never thrown more ints than tds, has a career 60% completion percentage and has consistently thrown for 3500 yards basically.
Can you give me 2 metrics that show Sanchez to be a comparable player? 2 categories or things that show Sanchez to be comparable to a qb.
If citing stats, use only those that are real. Non fiction here. Actual stats.
Why don't you post this poll over on your jets site, if the results are what you say them to be, I'll leave the site. If not, you do.
Poll question:
Is Mark Sanchez a comparable qb to joe flacco? Should they be considered in the same breath when talking how good they are at the position?

Friday, September 05, 2003Valparaiso, Ind. (Sept. 5, 2003) - East Tennessee State's volleyball team fell 3-0 to Indiana State Friday night in the first match of the Popcorn Classic in Valparaiso, Ind. With the loss, ETSU drops to 1-3 on the season, while the Sycamores improved to 3-1 after defeating the Buccaneers by scores of 30-21, 30-19, and 32-30. "Our lack of offense just killed us tonight," said ETSU head coach Lindsey Devine. "We are still trying to take care of the details and trying to find out where the heart of this team is. Right now we're looking for a pulse." Kelsey Sherich (Ogallala, Neb.) led the Buccaneer offense by registering 12 kills on the evening. The freshman outside hitter had just one attack error and finished the match with a team-high attack percentage of .440. Senior Kate Steidle (Waynesboro, Va.) also picked up just one attack error. She tallied 10 kills for a .409 hitting percentage. Freshman Jennifer Sartor (Toronto, Canada) earned the team's first double-double of the season with 24 assists and 11 digs. Sophomore Kristi Robinson (Knoxville, Tenn.) nearly accomplished the same feat with 15 assists and nine digs. Kylee Osborne, who recorded a match-high 17 kills on just two errors, led Indiana State. The Sycamores hit .351 as a team. Osborne also garnered 14 digs in the match, while Kerri Byrum served up 42 assists. The competition doesn't get any easier for ETSU on Saturday. The Buccaneers will face off against two teams that entered the tournament undefeated with 4-0 records. They will play host Valparaiso at 1:30 p.m. (EST), and will then face Cleveland State at 6 p.m.

Children paint with pop artist Perry Milou at Smith Playground in Philadelphia in collaboration with Philly Parents circle,, "Celebration of Play Event" Oct 1, 2011
Nine year old Faith Kurtzman loves Lady Gaga. Upon entering Palette Kids Studio, she admired Perry Milou's original pop oil titled ''CAUTION GAGA'' , oil/mixed media on canvas 48/36 in, 2011.( see perrrymilou.com....new works). She immediately asked her mother to purchase the piece for her, but mom said it was a little over her allowance budget, so Faith quickly ordered a giclee ( archival reproduction on canvas) from the artist and proceeded to add her own embellishments,, ie swarovski crytals and Martha Stewart Glitter, not to mention all the caution tape that she cut her own patterns for and decopauged on the print.

There are some exciting and informative experiences available across the country and we're sure to have something of interest to you.
To many people, zoos are synonymous with lions and tigers. We have some great big cat experiences available so that you can enjoy this classic zoo experience. We have arrangements with animal enclosures in Kent, Hertfordshire and Devon so that you can have a close up (but not too close!) experience with lions and tigers, according to venue. You can even help the zoo keeper feed the animals if you're brave enough.

You'll learn some basics of riding as well as take in the beautiful New Forest countryside.
However, if you're looking for an animal experience with a wider span of locations in the UK then look up our birds of prey experiences. We have many locations in England and Scotland where you can learn a bit about various British birds and get a basic notion of how falconry works. You will also learn about conservation, wildlife habitat and breeding programmes that may be happening in the area. Some of the birds you can visit include owls, hawks and eagles.
Many people dream of going whale watching, or to see dolphins and we have dolphins and whales experiences available now. While this experience is seasonal and sightings are not guaranteed, it is all the more special if you do see a whale or dolphin. You will see the best of British wildlife off the coast of Scotland, Wales or Cornwall and hopefully bump noses with wild dolphins or whales in the area. This is one of the most exciting animal experiences available at the moment.

Rented homes can be a higher risk environment when it comes to electricity due to a number of factors, including landlords' confusion about where their responsibilities lie and how the different pieces of legislation apply to them.
Most landlords are probably aware that there is no legal requirement to supply an annual electrical safety certificate, as there is with gas.
However, a landlord is required by law to ensure that:
The electrical installation refers to all the fixed electrical equipment in a property – cables, sockets, switches, light fittings, fuse box, and wiring.
The Electrical Safety Council have produced a booklet to advise landlords what they need to do and put in place to ensure that the electrics in their rental property are as safe as possible - and that they have the relevant paperwork to prove this. The booklet by can be found by visiting the ESC website by following the useful links below.

Rated 4.2 out of 5�by 777 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5�by 0104 This sock wears well My daughter bought this sock because her soccer team had decided to change their uniform look to all pink socks. Almost everyone else bought an Adidas sock at another store. After two games the girls wearing the Adidas socks were complaining about snags and some even sported holes. The Reebok sock was good as new, even though it was being worn by the goal keeper. November 5, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5�by Hannah Great Value This is our third pair of this particular sock. We still have the first pair from last year. They wash up great and hold their shape. They aren't to tight around my child's leg. They are an excellent value. June 3, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5�by RJFootballMom Wil buy again Quality material. Fits true to size. Will buy again and recommend. October 11, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5�by Frisbeerookie Good for outdoor sports I changed into these socks while playing outdoors in extremely cold, windy weather. The fact that they're long enough to cover most of my calves made them a great help in warming up my freezing legs, and they're still thin enough to fit in my cleats well and not cause my toes to be squished. November 5, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5�by CMEDS Great for cold weather activities I bought three pairs in different colors for running outside. I have used them as layering due to the cold temperatures in the Mid-Atlantic. I highly recommend these socks. They stay up on my fairly large calves and are comfortable to wear. The socks are soft and I've washed one pair and they came back fine. They are warm on both the feet and calves. February 11, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by JPank4 Reebok has the best socks of all After purchasing 17 socks for our football team, I was overwhelmed with the positive feedback from the parents saying that Reebok has the best socks of the bunch. They hold their elasticity and are breathable. They approved of my purchase. Thanks Dicks. October 15, 2013

Only one of four people vying for seats on the Perkins school board believes a superintendent should have to live in the district.
Four Perkins Schools candidates seeking two open seats — Michael Ahner, Terry Chapman, J Franklin and Richard Uher — weighed in on the often hot-button issue during a Register-sponsored debate Thursday evening at Chet and Matt's Pizza.
See photos from the debate HERE
About 50 people attended the event in the restaurant's banquet hall.
To connect with a community, Franklin said a district's top leader, including Perkins School superintendent Jim Gunner, who lives near Toledo, must reside in his or her district. Ahner, Chapman and Uher said it shouldn't be required, although it's preferred because it sends a strong, positive message to taxpayers.
"It's the job you do, not where you live that makes the difference," Uher said. "If you can't get the right candidate (in Perkins Township) and they're not willing to move, you bring the best superintendent in to do the job regardless of where they live."
Other inquires from the crowd targeted the district's fiscal future. Candidates discussed tax levies and a dwindling budget, as all the district's reserve funds will be spent by the end of the current school year. While the candidates all agreed a tax levy is inevitable, they disagreed on how much money the district should seek from taxpayers, especially given the board's 2011 decision to move "inside millage" — funding used for day-to-day operations — into a separate account for building improvements.
The polarizing decision has effectively segmented the Perkins community, and it was reflected in the four candidates as well.
Ahner and Franklin proposed returning the 5.2 mills of funds back into the operating budget and then asking taxpayers for a smaller levy, possibly 2 mills, to get by in the short term. A future levy or bond issue would be required to fund building projects.
"The first thing we need to do is reverse the inside millage move that wasn't voted on," Franklin said. "It wasn't illegal but it was unethical."
Uher and Chapman said keeping the funds in their current location is the most feasible, cost-effective longterm option.
The district is proposing a 10-year, 6.73-mill levy on the November ballot — its third levy attempt this year
— which both candidates said they support. The new funds would replenish the depleted operating fund while also supporting new building projects without an additional levy or bond issue.
"Moving the millage back is just a temporary fix," Chapman said. "The move was not unethical. We as a district and a board have to manage our operational budget and our facilities, and we chose to move the millage to protect our facilities."
The four candidates are seeking a four-year term on the Perkins school board. The election is Nov. 5.

Troy, AL (Sports Network) - Ryan Aplin threw for 369 yards and four touchdowns as he guided the Arkansas State Red Wolves to a 41-34 win over the Troy Trojans in Sun Belt Conference play at Veterans Memorial Stadium.
Aplin completed 28-of-42 passes for the Red Wolves (8-3, 6-1 Sun Belt) and was intercepted once as the team rattled off a sixth straight victory. David Oku helped out on the ground with a game-high 93 yards and two touchdowns on 20 carries.
The Trojans (5-6, 3-4) were paced by Corey Robinson who completed 26-of-35 for 417 yards and a score, while kicker Will Scott converted all four of his field goal tries to make things interesting.
ASU took the first possession of the meeting 94 yards in 10 plays and capitalized with a five-yard TD strike from Aplin to Julian Jones, but a failed PAT left the squad with only a 6-0 advantage.
Five minutes later the Trojans responded with a 51-yard TD pass play between Robinson and Chip Reeves to give the hosts a one-point edge.
Later in the first, the Red Wolves against found their way into the end zone on a 31-yard pass from Aplin to J.D. McKissic and this time the PAT was successful.
In the second period Troy assumed the lead as Deon Anthony crossed the goal line on a one-yard run and Scott booted a 19-yard field goal to make the score 17-13 in favor of the home team.
However, with only 12 seconds remaining in the half, Aplin's nine-yard TD toss to Taylor Stockemer capped an 11-play, 75-yard drive and gave ASU the lead heading into the break.
In the third Scott hit on kicks from 18 and 38 yards out, but Arkansas State did better than match those scoring efforts as Oku reeled in a 43-yard TD pass from Aplin and then carried the ball for a five-yard TD run later in the period to give the visitors a 34-23 lead.
The Troy defense made some noise at the 10:23 mark of the fourth quarter when Brynden Trawick returned an interception 70 yards for a score, with a successful two-point conversion making the difference just three points.
Oku's one-yard scoring run with just under five minutes remaining again pushed the advantage to double digits and the only response the Trojans could muster was a 29-yard field goal by Scott just over a minute later.
Both teams finished with more than 500 yards of offense, while the Trojans didn't help their cause by being flagged 11 times for 96 yards.

Over the years, the face of heart attacks—medically known as myocardial infarctions—has become the middle-aged male, overweight, stressed out and generally unhealthy. His symptoms include severe pain in the chest and tingling in the arms. But heart attack symptoms and their victims are far more varied than that. Chicago resident Theresa Hunt-Myers, 69, learned this firsthand.
One morning in March 2009, Hunt-Myers awoke with a crick in her neck. Assuming she had slept uncomfortably, she tried to ignore it and began dressing for work. Hunt-Myers' reaction isn't rare. Many women ignore the initial heart attack symptoms, mistakenly blaming stress or shoulder pain.
Before long, she grew hot. "I felt like I was on fire," she said. "Water was streaming off of me like I was in the shower." Then she was on her knees, not in pain but "it was like part of me had shut down."
At this point, Hunt-Myers knew something more serious was happening. She crawled to the phone and dialed 911. Within 20 minutes, paramedics were rolling her into the Weiss Memorial Hospital emergency room. Dr. Amjad Sheikh performed emergency surgery, inserting a stent into Hunt-Myers' artery.
"The people who cared for me were amazing," said Hunt-Myers, breaking into tears as she described Dr. Sheikh warming a blanket in the microwave and wrapping it around her feet to keep them warm. "I never ever felt anything but cared for and concerned about," she said.
Hunt-Myers returned to her work as an administrative assistant at an investment company a few weeks later. She continues to participate in cardiac rehabilitation at Weiss, leaving work twice weekly to exercise on the treadmills and bikes at the hospital.
The experience has taught her to listen to her body—especially because there is no exact outline of heart attack symptoms.
"Sometimes I might overreact to the smallest symptom," Hunt-Myers said, but she alone knows her body and can prevent another heart attack.

A Waldorf man is being held without bond on charges that he twice raped a teenage girl, once after threatening her with a handgun outside the Pinefield Shopping Plaza.
Rodney Pontell Sisco, 46, was arrested Oct. 2 after the girl, now 14, identified him in a photo lineup as the man who had raped her twice over a six-day period last month.
The girl told officers she had been partying Sept. 10, the day before her 14th birthday, behind the Foods In store at the plaza, drinking alcohol and taking K2, a synthetic cannabinoid, when a friend of hers said a man wanted to meet her, according to charging papers.
The man walked up to the girl, pulled up his shirt to show he had a handgun tucked inside his waistband and told her to get in his car, the papers state. The man bought the girl two Four Loko alcoholic drinks at the Pinefield Liquors drive-thru before heading to a nearby townhome community, according to court records.
The man parked and demanded sex, the papers state. Fearing for her life after seeing the handgun, the girl complied. Afterward, the man dropped the girl off at the Sunoco gas station near the plaza and threw about $100 at her, court documents state.
Six days later, the girl was at the Sunoco station when she saw the same man sitting in his car. He beckoned her over and told her to get in the car, court papers state.
The man again bought the girl a Four Loko beverage at the liquor store drive-thru and drove back to the plaza, where they drank alcohol together, the papers state.
The man then drove back to the same neighborhood where the first assault occurred and again demanded sex, according to court records. The girl resisted physically this time, but the man overpowered her, holding her arms down during the rape, the documents state. The man dropped her off back at the plaza.
The next day, the girl, who had been reported missing, returned home and reported the assaults to her parents, who called police.
A week later, a Charles County sheriff�s detective met with the girl�s friend, who confirmed he had been approached in front of the Foods In by a man looking for a �female companion,� court papers state. The friend said he relayed the message to the girl, who was reluctant to meet the man.
With the help of surveillance video footage, the detective identified Sisco as the prime suspect. The girl later identified Sisco in a photo lineup as the man who raped her, police reported.
Sisco has been charged with first-degree rape, two counts of second-degree rape, first-degree assault, two counts of second-degree assault, two counts of sexual solicitation of minor, prostitution and use of a firearm in commission of a violent crime.

Key Sectors
Basic Information
In searching for the smallest number of categories necessary to contain and organize the challenges expected between now and 2025, five key sectors emerged. Most of the challenges arise from four sectors:
- Energy
- National Security
- Medical
- Industrial and Consumer
A fifth sector, Legacy, recognizes that wastes and problems from the other sectors will eventually become a common problem.
The Key Sectors diagram represents these areas as lobes within a simplified model of an atom, with the Legacy sector at the intersection of the other four.
Organizing emerging challenges in this simple, yet comprehensive framework, allowed EPA to clearly see and reassess its historical focus on the Legacy Sector.

Comments On Apr 26, 2015:This filter is a must if you have a fuel injected bike! Kinda sucks refueling tho, have to pour gas slowly or it'll overflow. But that just means it's doing the job!
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Mar 03, 2015:Only gave it 4 stars because I think if they did make it a bit larger their would be less issue filling and getting back-pressure, splashing and nozzle shut-off. So, you just need to be a bit careful about how you place the nozzle, or gas can spout, and how fast you are fueling. Can't comment on filtering yet, but if I see little bits of crud in their later I'll update this. Slipped into fill hole pretty easily, just required a little bit of persuasion.

Comments On Dec 01, 2014:Keeps dirt out of your fuel pump when filling. Cheap insurance to prevent fuel pump failure.

Comments On Apr 22, 2014:Installation is of course very easy.
Refueling is slow because of this filter. I haven't had any issues with fuel contamination but the bike hasn't been used that much. Hopefully it is working good as a filter considering how slowly you have to fill when at the gas pump.

Comments On Apr 07, 2014:This is a cheap investment for an expensive sport. We spend thousands on bikes and modifications for our bikes, we even pay $10-$15-$20 a gallon for race fuel, so why not spend a small amount of $ for a large amount of protection? If you have EFI bike this product is a must. It offers a little piece of mind that just might help you sleep at night.

Comments On Mar 29, 2014:The filter seems to do the job and that to me means it's worth the pain of filling the bike up awfully slow. I mean slowww. If you go too fast the fuel will fill the bag quicker than it will seive and overflow. Kinda a pain. If your racing and need a quick fill it is easy to remove the filter. So I just have my buddy grab it out before he puts more in. Tadaa. Better than replacing injectors.

Comments On Oct 02, 2013:I ride in SE Asia and fuel quality is questionable at best. Seems to do its job as I have used some very dirty fuel and not had any issues at all. Nice to be able to see the filter to know when its ready for a cleaning.

Comments On Oct 01, 2013:I think this is the best idea for a fuel filter, the design allows high flow. Way better than those cheap in line filters. Fits the notches inside the tank perfectly, must have for an injected bike.

Yes, we are still counting but what is new.
Obama will take Florida eventually which makes me happy. But what really surprised me and made me happy is that the attempt by the Republicans to change our Florida constitution into a christian-right piece of toilet paper and the attempted erosion of checks and balances not only failed (not reaching the required 60%) but most not even getting a simple majority.
And then the most divisive piece of crap politician (West) will hopefully be declared a loser soon.
Floridians made a stand for against the Republican-Teaparty-Rightwing-Christian-Anti-American agenda.

Gold Hill, Ore. -- Firefighters did what they could to keep controlled burns under control Friday.
In Sam's Valley one neighbor watched it all from her front yard.
"I saw a lot of smoke and the neighbor lady running up and down the driveway...panicking called 911," said Carrol Varner.
Her neighbor's burn pile spread to three acres. And even came close to neighboring homes. But Varner said she didn't just sit and watch.
"We grabbed our shovels and the neighbor was here and she grabbed her shovel. Everybody started putting the fire out all the neighbors."
Earlier in the day, another controlled burn in South Medford grew to an acre and a half, quickly. Fire Fighters said in a drought and a day of spring fires is a sign of what could be a devastating wildfire season ahead.
Captain Alan Bennett had this message:
"Even if you have a permit just realize that even though we've had rains recently its very dry in the underbrush and the grass is extremely dry."
