Hugo [DVD]
In resourceful orphan Hugo Cabret (Asa Butterfield, an Oliver Twist-like charmer), Martin Scorsese finds the perfect vessel for his silver-screen passion: this is a movie about movies. After his clockmaker father (Jude Law) perishes in a museum fire, Hugo goes to live with his Uncle Claude (Ray Winstone), a drunkard who maintains the clocks at a Paris train station. When Claude disappears, Hugo carries on his work and fends for himself by stealing food from area merchants.
In his free time, he attempts to repair an automaton his father rescued from the museum, while trying to evade the station inspector (Sacha Baron Cohen), a World War I veteran with no sympathy for lawbreakers. When Georges (Ben Kingsley), a toymaker, catches Hugo stealing parts for his mechanical man, he recruits him as an assistant to repay his debt.
If Georges is guarded, his open-hearted ward, Isabelle (Chloë Moretz), introduces Hugo to a kindly bookseller (Christopher Lee), who directs them to a motion-picture museum, where they meet film scholar René (Boardwalk Empire's Michael Stuhlbarg). In helping unlock the secret of the automaton, they learn about the roots of cinema, starting with the Lumière brothers, and give a forgotten movie pioneer his due, thus illustrating the importance of film preservation, a cause to which the director has dedicated his life.
If Scorsese's adaptation of The Invention of Hugo Cabret isn't his most autobiographical work, it just may be his most personal. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

We'll respond shortly.
We do a lot of Android software development at Xtreme Labs. Every two months we have a retrospective meeting to look back and reflect on the exciting discoveries, petty frustrations, and disseminate our findings to the group. There are some lessons that we've learned time and time again.
Have you ever seen an application hang and stop responding to your input? Did the animations stop sparkling? Did you see the dreaded Application Not Responding dialog box? These little emergencies can occur if you block your application's UI-thread for too long.
Every application begins with one thread running a message loop. Everything that the user sees and all feedback they receive depends on the message loop. All of those Activity onResume, button OnClick, and all drawing events depend on that same message loop. If anything running on that thread takes too long, the user can experience a jarring episode of jankiness.
In particular, any operation that makes network requests or accesses the device's filesystem can take precious time away from this message loop. If you make a network request and it takes more than a few seconds to return, then the user will see the Application Not Responding dialog box. A lot of users can't tell the difference between these kinds of hangs and mundane crashes and will think your application is buggy (which, for all intents and purposes, it is).
This sin is so grievous that applications targetting the Honeycomb API, or greater, will experience NetworkOnMainThreadException if the application makes a network request using the UI-thread.
How do you guard against these misdeeds? Use AsyncTasks and ThreadPoolExecutors to toss your blocking calls onto worker threads. When your background tasks complete you can use callbacks or post messages to your UI-thread's message loop to process the results.
You can also enable strict mode (available in Gingerbread) to provide visual feedback when your application performs a naughty operations on the UI-thread.
Handling large bitmap images on Android is hard. We still haven't found the silver bullet that helps us load as many images as we want without running out of memory.
The main problem is that the amount of RAM available to individual processes in Android applications is disappointingly small. The maximum heap size keeps getting bigger and bigger with successive OS releases and fancier devices, but it's hard to believe that we'll ever have the luxury to load as many huge images as we could in desktop environments.
The math is simple. The resolution of the Galaxy Nexus screen is 1280×720 pixels. Images with a bit-depth of 32-bits-per-pixel will consume about 3.5 MB of memory once they are uncompressed into your application's heap. It doesn't matter what kind of compression the image uses.
Most applications seem to get heap spaces around 20 to 30 MB. You can see that loading only a handful of images into memory can cause your application to run dry of heap space very quickly. You can try using the android:largeHeap attribute in your application Manifest to request more heap space, but, at best, this attribute is just a hint and the operation system doesn't need to respect it.
What can you do? First, make sure that you are not leaking references to your images when you're done. You want to get that image off of your heap as soon as possible.
This problem is simple to solve, but I've seen it done poorly so many times. Your application needs to give positive feedback when the user interacts with the application's display. If you touch a button, it should be highlighted.
Android makes it easy to provide different graphical states for on-screen elements based on their current selection or pressed states. You need to assign a StateListDrawable to your custom screen elements. The easiest way to do this is to create a drawable XML file with a state selector (see the above link for an example).
Think carefully about where to apply these kinds of drawable. You probably won't need it on regular Button objects (as long as you are using one of the built-in themes), but you will definitely need it on ImageButtons. You may or may not need to use it on individual rows in ListViews. Be careful.
A lot of people wants us to port existing iOS apps to the Android platform and want to recycle the same design. That's a horrible taboo to break. Android applications have their own look-and-feel that is distinct from iOS and other platforms. What makes sense on iOS doesn't always make sense on Android. Android users are smart and will call out and give poor ratings to Android applications that look like iOS applications.
Google has written extensive Design Guidelines elaborating on how Android applications should look. Read it! Learn it! Some design rules are made to be broken and you can distinguish your application by bending the rules in shrewd ways — but you should learn the rules before you play ball.

A particularly frequent transgression is to put tabs at the bottom of the screen. The built-in Android tab controls should live at the top of the screen.
Android device fragmentation is real. There's lots of versions of the operating system, lots of screen sizes, and lots of keyboard layouts in the ecosystem. Many applications do a poor job of supporting the vast diversity of devices in the world.
It doesn't have to be so hard. Android gives developers many tools to combat this bewildering space. Here's some things to remember:

I had never heard of this, but found a good link with more information
http://digestive.niddk.nih.gov/ddiseases/pubs /nash/sounds like your doctor gave you the current standard approach about maintaining a good weight and eating well.
it sounds like there is a little more research going on... (excerpt from the article)
Another experimental approach to treating NASH is the use of newer antidiabetic medicationsâ??even in persons without diabetes. Most patients with NASH have insulin resistance, meaning that the insulin normally present in the bloodstream is less effective for them in controlling blood glucose and fatty acids in the blood than it is for people who do not have NASH. The newer antidiabetic medications make the body more sensitive to insulin and may help reduce liver injury in patients with NASH. Studies of these medicationsâ??including metformin, rosiglitazone, and pioglitazoneâ??are being sponsored by the National Institutes of Health and should answer the question of whether these medications are beneficial in NASH
thank you for the info I am going to check it out. there is still more research being done on this as it is fairly new.
p.s thanks for being a friend{{{united2gether}}}

NAFLD = non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (a broader term that includes NASH as well as fatty changes in the liver without hepatitis. "non-alcoholic" is in this term since excessive alcohol intake results in fat in the liver that looks similar on liver biopsy, and we typically exclude alcohol use by asking the patient).
NASH = non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (fatty liver disease in which there is active inflammation and scaring may or has begun to occur)
Although NASH is a relatively new term, it is not a new liver disease. In the past we typically lumped these patients into the "cryptogenic" (e.g. unknown cause) which covered a number of different causes.
The majority of patients who are significantly obese have fatty change in the liver. There are changes on imaging (i.e. CT, MRI, and abdominal ultrasound) that are very suggestive of NAFLD. NASH is when you have active inflammation in the liver and occurs in a relatively small subset of people with fatty liver disease. You can only diagnose NASH by liver biopsy or if you have imaging findings of cirrhosis (irregular small liver due to scarring in the liver).
The problem isn't fat on the liver, but inside the liver cells ("hepatocytes"). Exactly why fat builds up in these cells, how it causes damage, and why only some people with fatty liver develop NASH and cirrhosis is a very active area of research (and a bit too complex to discuss there). However, obesity and insulin resistance (diabetes or "metabolic syndrome" - central obesity, hypertension, high cholesterol, blood glucose control impairment) are underlying causes.
Weight loss is the only thing that will definitely improve NAFLD. Typically we recommend no losing more than 1 kg (2.2 pounds) per week since more rapid weight loss increases the risk of worsening of NAFLD and also of gallstones. At this point, the evidence for drugs such as Metformin and Avandia are not strong enough that we routinely recommend them.
Although I typically discuss dietary changes with patients with a goal towards weight loss, there is no evidence that any particular change such as increasing fiber or water intake helps. We believe decreasing dietary fat helps, and its a good idea for weight loss.
Liver cancer is a very rare complication of NASH (but does occur). Liver cancer ("hepatocellular carcinoma") almost always occurs in the context of significant cirrhosis (i.e. advance liver disease). I think may physicians mention it since it is something they hope will motivate change. Much more likely outcomes of doing nothing about are: hypertension, developing diabetes, having a heart or stroke, arthritis in the knees and back, and possibly developing cirrhosis and liver failure in the future. Not that these are much better.

you don't want to lose to fast my doctor told me with nash slow and steady is the way to go and drink lots of water and of course a high fibre diet and anything fried will make it worse stay away from greasy food. since finding out in jan i have lost 32 pounds and the doc says that is the right pace so i am sticking to what I am doing.

I know I'm responding to a 2007 post regarding the liver disease NASH, but I'm still searching for any answers I can get or any new information. My father was diagnosed last year october 08 with NASh... he had lack of appetite, weight gain the week before the hospital admitted him, turned extremely white (not jaundice at all), pain in lower side.
Found out he had Cirrosis on his liver, never drank in his life and had a bioposy to determine he had NASH. He was skinny his entire life until he hit his mid-40's and put on some weight, but he's 6 ft and currently 194 but at the time of admitted he was around 230.. that was due to the water retaining in his body.
As a family we are very confused why he has got this disease and are still searching for answers. I'm a teacher and if it's food that brought him to this I have a million students daily who eat fast food and are well above their weight limit. I would like to know if any current research is occuring this year as of 09 to help this disease?? If not.. than as a country we can defiinitely see this disease being one of the biggest "silent" killers in the near future.
I can locate some old research, but nothing new.. the old data from the old reasearch is inconclusive and the study groups were extremely small. I don't think were doing enough or educating the public on this disease to make them aware..
Note: my father has no history of diabetes, not severly overweight (he's 67 6 ft. 194 was 230 two weeks before going to hospital), never been to the doctor before. Never been sick. He even lives in a remote area with 1 fast food chain and eats homemade dinners that my mom cooks daily. Doesn't drink, works in the yard all the time. He doesn't fit any of the categories of the disease, which makes all of this hard for me to absorb and understand. Never had any sugeries etc.
any "new" additional iinformation would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all, I will be in the south of France for a few days during May and am wondering whether to stay at Nimes or Arles? I have stayed at Arles before and loved it and would like to go back, but Nimes looks good too. I will just be wandering around the Roman remains, shops, restaurants, markets, streets etc.
Nimes seems to be more focussed on bullfighting, from what I have discovered so far. Are there any major differences? Anybody been to both and have a strong preference?
I will have my own car and staying in the city centre so assume crime rate/driving exactly the same in both places.
So if anyone lives in the area or has spent time in both places it would be nice to have your thoughts.

Ignorance promotes competition: An auction model with endogenous private valuations
We study a situation in which an auctioneer wishes to sell an object to one of N risk-neutral bidders with heterogeneous preferences. The auctioneer does not know bidders' preferences but has private information about the characteristics of the ob ject, and must decide how much information to reveal prior to the auction. We show that the auctioneer has incentives to release less information than would be efficient and that the amount of information released increases with the level of competition (as measured by the number of bidders). Furthermore, in a perfectly competitive market the auctioneer would provide the efficient level of information.

In 1997, eager to ride the wave of fame the restaurant brought with it, Paula self-published her first cookbook, entitled The Lady and Sons Savannah Country Cookbook. The book was a success, featuring a collection of Southern recipes, background information about Southern food, personal stories and witty anecdotes, and even prompted the publication of a second book, entitled The Lady and Sons Savannah Country Cooking 2. Since the publication of the first two books, Paula has gone on to release two more cookbooks, Paula Deen and Friends: Living It Up, Southern Style and The Lady and Sons Just Desserts. She has also published a memoir, entitled It Ain't All About the Cookin' and launched a magazine in 2005, called Cooking with Paula Deen.
In 1999, Paula made her first television appearance as a guest star on a number of Food Network shows. Paula introduced herself to the world, serving up a healthy portion of charm and wit alongside her famous Southern cuisine and won the hearts of critics and audiences alike. In 2003, Paula appeared on her own show, Paula's Home Cooking. The show was an immediate success with viewers and she became one of Food Network's most recognized celebrity chefs. Inviting audiences into her home and introducing them to her sons, Paula's show was rich in good-natured, softhearted, homespun values and appeal. Set against the lush Savannah backdrop, Paula provided aspiring chefs and food lovers with mouth-watering recipes and a sense of friendship.
In 2004, Paula married her second husband, Michael Groover, a Savannah tugboat captain and regular on her show. Together with Groover and sons, Jamie and Bobby, Paula continues to turn out scrumptious cooking that is both inventive and exciting. Following in their mother's footsteps, Jamie and Bobby have appeared regularly on the show, helping their mother perfect her recipes, while adding some lip-smacking goodies of their own. The duo have appeared independent of their mother on other Food Network shows, like Road Tasted, a cross-country exploration of food that reveals the brothers' own love of food and individual talents in cooking, possessing unique styles all their own and surprisingly different from their mother's.
On January 17, 2012, Paula revealed to the world that she had type 2 diabetes and had been struggling with the disease prior to the public announcement. The Southern sweetheart, whose food was anything but sweet on the heart, announced that her diagnosis has changed the way she views food, but not her love and passion for cooking, stating on her website, "Of course, I will continue to share my favorite Southern recipes, just like my mama, grandmother, and family shared with me over the years. And now, I'll be adding a little bit of a lighter touch to some of these wonderful dishes." Paula has announced that she will be working with diabetes healthcare company Novo Nordisk to educate and inspire through tasty diabetes-friendly recipes. She will be providing "lightened up" alternatives to a number of yummy, but not necessarily healthy, dishes, as well as offering advice and tips for living with diabetes.
With the support of her family and friends, Paula Deen has, again, proven herself to be steadfast in her determination. Having championed an early life characterized by hardship and struggle, Paula's attitude toward diabetes suggests that she still possess the same fortitude and resolve to overcome, stating, "When I learned I had type 2 diabetes, I decided to approach managing the disease with the same positivity and "go get 'em" attitude I have every day. In the past, I've heard so many stories of people like me that let diabetes control their lives, but I didn't want to let this slow me down. I wanted to take control and have a delicious time doing it." Always a source of optimism and encouragement, Paula will continue to share her passion for cooking and food with the same upbeat and cheerful, "Hey y'all!"

Dog was very happy and I could tell was exercised well.
Heike was absolutely wonderful to our 5 month old yellow lab puppy - it's hard enough to watch a puppy as it is, but to top it off, he also wasn't feeling the best. She never hesitated - she was very patient and understanding! She truly is an animal lover. Her Dalmatian and Rottweiler were very friendly as well and definitely helped with our puppy's socialization. We highly recommend Heike. We are definitely returning customers!

Hello. My name is Austin.
I make websites.
I have over 5 years of professional experience building websites and apps, and have been working with web technology for over 10 years.
My primary interests as a front-end engineer include developing maintainable UI systems and designing for performance. I have created pattern libraries for websites and built JavaScript frameworks and libraries.
I believe websites should be fast and lightweight. They should provide high-quality user experience on any platform or screen size. They should also be accessible to all, regardless of disability, bandwidth, or device.
When I'm not developing, I spend my time looking at pugs on the internet, petting my real life pug, and making experimental dinner dishes.

Mora not focused on Trojans, 'monopoly'
New UCLA coach Jim Mora met with reporters Saturday shortly before the Bruins met Illinois at AT&T Park.
Mora said he was not bothered by criticism of his hiring and acknowledged the UCLA has a long way to go before the program is at a place where he and the school's fan base will be satisfied.
"But I think that we've hired a good staff and we're going to go after it," Mora said. "I mean that's all we can do we can just attack and do the best we can and try and bite it off in chunks and gain the ground that we've lost."
Here's a complete transcript of Mora's comments.
Why you haven't been more visible
Visibile in regards to what?
That you haven't been available. You haven't been talking. You haven't been down on the field.
I've been a work every day from 6 a.m. until midnight in the office.
Doing what?
Recruiting, hiring coaches, talking to administration. Things like that. I have not gone on the football field out of respect to the coaches that are coaching this game and the players that are playing this game. Having been in their shoes over the years the last thing I wanted to be in a distraction to them so I have stayed away from the football field. I've walked out on the field three times and each time I've not felt like it was a spot I should be. But for anyone to insinuate that I haven't been working or haven't been at UCLA would be false.
Where are you at with the staff?
We're in pretty good shape. We've got a couple guys we'll probably announce right after the new year.
A defensive coordinator?
Yeah, we'll be announcing a defensive coordinator.
Hired somebody?
Haven't, no, it's not official but it's looking good. The staff should be filled by Monday or Tuesday because the dead period ends Tuesday and we want to hit the road running on Wednesday.
What are you hoping to see today?
Well I'm basically watching it as a fan first. I want to see my new team play and then as a coach anytime you watch a game you evaluate it. It's hard to separate the fan from the coach so I want to see who makes plays. I want to see plays hard. I want to see if I can get a feel for body language and how I might be able to interpret attitude. I want to see guys that fight to win and you won't be able to see all those things but I think I'll get a feel for it.
When you were with the 49ers you had a reputation as a guy that was an enthusiastic coach. Do you think you'll be more enthusiastic as a college coach?
I don't know. I don't plan my enthusiasm. I am what I am and I react how I react. I enjoy coaching, I enjoy competing. I like being around athletes and kids in a competitive environment and when you're doing something you enjoy there's just a natural enthusiasm. So I don't think about it I just am what I am.
How have you taken to recruiting so far?
Well it's been a challenge. It's been a lot of fun. You know I've had some home visits. I've been on the phone, like I said, every night. We start in New York basically and we work our way to Hawaii and finish up about midnight which is 9 o'clock in Hawaii making calls across the country to kids. And it's been good. Every kid kind of has a different question for you. I had a feeling coming in that maybe you'd have a canned presentation that you'd give parents and kids in their homes and that's absolutely not the case. You know you go in there and you have to get a feel for what they're looking for, what their questions are and be prepared to talk on different levels. So it's been a challenge but I'm lucky because the coaches I've been able to hire and get on staff quickly and go out and recruit with are ace recruiters. So I've tried to learn from them as we've gone.
What's your sales pitch?
Well I don't think there is a sales pitch. You know if there's two questions that most families have, and when you're talking families, parents and the kid, is what kind of education am I going to get? And we all know UCLA is a great academic institution so they know they're going to get an education. And then a lot of the kids want to know how can you help me achieve my dream which is to play in the National Football League and that's pretty easy one for me because I spent 25 years in the NFL and I think I'm uniquely qualified to help those kids acquire the mindset, the work habits, the skill set they need if they're willing to work, if they have the God-given ability, to play at that level.
Did we just get the sales pitch?
If you want to call it a sales pitch, yeah, but those are really kind of the two main questions. Education and future and then a lot of kids will ask, and parents will (ask) what are the plans for my son on your team, how are you going to use them? So it's a different answer with everybody obviously.
What's your reaction been to the reaction to your hiring? There's been a lot of both positive and negative reaction. Did the negative criticism surprise you?
To my hiring? No, it didn't surprise me at all. I expected that.
Well, I had never coached in college football before so I was an unknown quantity. They had gone after some high profile coaches that they weren't able to land. So it is to be expected. It didn't bother me, it doesn't bother me. I anticipated it. The only thing I can do is go to work everyday, be the best I can and hopefully we'll win enough games that the criticism goes away.
Have you bumped into Kiffin yet?
No, I have not bumped into Kiffin yet.
Have you heard from him?
When you talk to your team for the first time what's going to be your first priority?
Well actually I met with them the day I did my press conference. Before the press conference we had about a 20 or 30 minute meeting and I just talked about some of my expectations for them, some of the things we needed to do going forward and I left it at that. And I'll meet with them again on the 9th. That will be our first team meeting as me with the guys coming back. So we'll get into more then. But like I've said, I just felt like as a coach in transition I know how difficult it is so for me to go out to practice every day and be around the players, I just felt it would be very disrespectful to those guys that worked so hard to get where they are. So that's why I've stayed kind of low profile but we've been grinding.
Do see now how far UCLA has fallen? People in Los Angeles expect more from their local football teams.
I think it's very obvious that we've got a ton of work to do. Just in being around the university for three weeks talking to the various people whether it be people in the equipment department or people on campus or coaches that have been on this staff or the few players I've talked to, there is a feeling that is consistent with what you're saying. But there's also I think a motivation to get back to where everyone wants to be. And it's going to take a lot of hard work and it's not going to be easy. But I think that we've hired a good staff and we're going to go after it. I mean that's all we can do we can just attack and do the best we can and try and bite it off in chunks and gain the ground that we've lost.
Do you think the USC monopoly is over?
My concern is not Southern Cal. My concern right now is UCLA and we when we get to the week where we play Southern Cal then we'll worry about Southern Cal.
When you're recruiting, when you're in this town, it is an everyday thing.
Well I'm recruiting for UCLA against Cal, against Southern Cal, against Arizona State, against Washington, all those people.
They don't want to be called Southern Cal.
Well that's what I call them, Southern Cal, so, uh, yeah. It's a competitive environment but in terms of worrying about Southern Cal, I'm not worried about Southern Cal. I'm worried about UCLA. You know they do what they do. We do what we do.
You know the whole monopoly thing? (A reference to the UCLA marketing campaign during Rick Neuheisel's first season claiming USC's football monopoly in Los Angeles was over.)
Monopoly, in terms of the game? The board game? I know the board game Monopoly?
You don't know the history of the monopoly?
No, and I'm not really concerned about it. If you want to tell me that's fine. But it doesn't matter to me.
As far as recruits I'm sure some have asked you how long you think it will take to get this thing turned around. What do you say?
Well we're behind in recruiting just because of the circumstance. When you come in late as new head coach you've got ground to make up. But I think we've made up some ground but we'll know for sure on February 1st when the fax starts ringing and the (national letters of intent) start coming through. But I think we've been able to jump in on some kids that maybe weren't as interested before. I think they're intrigued that I have an NFL background and with the staff that I've brought in (the players) already had relationships with them. So I can't say it's perfect but we're making progress.
But as far as them wondering when this program is going to get back on track?
Well they're a part of it. It's going to get back on track when we get guys like you in the program. The sooner we get great athletes like the guys that we're talking to in the program the sooner we get back on track.
So with what you've seen so far can you be successful right away your first year?
Define success.
Winning more games than losing
That's the goal. That's the objective, yeah. That's the objective.
Winning more games than you lose?
Of course that's always the goal. That's the objective. I'd be foolish to stand here and make predictions on what our record is going to be.
Other people have done that in the past?
Well I'm not concerned about the past. I'm concerned about the future. That's why I don't care about monopoly. I care about the future.

With a mixture of photography styles from casual to traditional, we will capture everything in your day. All of my wedding packages include hand designed albums and a full HI Res CD with all your photos edited in color, black and white, and sepia. Other color styles are available such as HRD and black and white with a touch of color. I do offer two different album styles to meet the different price ranges people have.
What was your favorite wedding photo?
The one where Matt was feeding me cake and kissed me instead. I can't believe she caught that one.
How did the wedding photographer avoid disrupting the day? Great with candids? Action shots? Portraits?
All day long she was more like a light shadow, every time I went to look for her, I realized she was standing right next to and had been the whole time. She blended in with the background perfectly.
What was included in your wedding photo package? Albums? DVDs? Engagement pics? Two photographers?
I had her all day from my mom's house tell we dropped on the couch in the back bridle room. And she smiled the whole time. DVDs with all the pictures in color, black and white, and sepia with the copy right release. I got a beautiful leather album with a photo of us on the front. And we got free engagement pictures with that.:)
How did the photographer make you and family comfortable?
She was very helpful through out the whole day. Any time something was confusing she had a suggestion on how to fix it. It was like having a wedding guide book in my pocket, but who has pockets in their wedding dress... ha It was great having her there to capture our wedding day.

Are you able to add http://ad.doubleclick.net to the Pop up blocker and it just doesn't work?
A possible option would be to go to My Computer > drive C: > Windows > System32 > Drivers > etc > Hosts.txt. Scroll down below "Host" and ad the following:
127.0.0.1 ad.doubleclick.net (w/o the "http://").
Close Hosts.txt and click "Yes" to save the changes.
But this does not always work as many advertisers can circumvent this. But if you are blocking Cookies you should be able to block ad.doubleclick.net By logging out of the CNET Forums, enabling Cookies, logging back into the CNET Forums, then again blocking Cookies.
BTW, the ad.doubleclick.net pop up it's self does not pose a risk. Rather it's just a slight nuisance.
Hope this is helpful.
I have Windows XP, with McAfee, Spybot, Ad-Aware. There is an ad website that automatically shows up on my AT&T browser window, It is http://ad.doubleclick.net. I want to eliminate this from my browser, but can't figure out how. Before AT&T took over SBC, I used to be able to go to tools, and pull up the pop-up blocker window, then type in any site I wanted to delete. I can't seem to do this anymore. Ad-Aware is not getting rid of it. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Tropical Fish Keeping - Aquarium fish care and resources (http://www.tropicalfishkeeping.com/forum.php)
- Saltwater Aquarium Equipment (http://www.tropicalfishkeeping.com/saltwater-aquarium-equipment/)
- - Protien skimmer = Less Water Changes??? (http://www.tropicalfishkeeping.com/saltwater-aquarium-equipment/protien-skimmer-less-water-changes-5688/)
Protien skimmer = Less Water Changes???
Does protein skimmer = less water changes or maybe no water changes at all , because in a fully established tank ammonia and nitrite are gobbled up by benificial bacteria and all thats left is nitrates. Those nitrates are then disposed of by protein skimmers so that should mean hardly any water changes need be done providing trace elements are added (calcium).
Is this true???
This is true to a certain point. However, the cycle is not perfect by any means and leaves some byproducts there are also non-toxic waste products and other fun chemistry that happens to tank water after a while.
Why having a complete system is essential for the health of the tank I would never suggest avoiding water changes altogether.
You can never go without water changes. The salt that you use to put in the tank has minerials that get used up by corals of all types. When you do water changes you are adding new elements in to the tank. Yes there are depris that is not picked up by the protien skimmer and it will collect in the tank. So doing a water change will get whatever the skimmer doesnt and also adds essential elements and minerials back into the tank from the new batch of water.
Already well answered. The thing to understand is that using a skimmer may help prolong your water change schedule. Without one I'd do a significant water change every other week, with one monthly. It allows for some degree of mistake by new tank owners. If a fish dies out of sight it will help keep the tank from crashing. They can skim out all that extra food new owners tend to over feed. Etc.. They do make life easier.
Buy good or don't buy at all.
Euroreef, ASM, Deltec are good brands that use the most current and energy saving techniques.
What I would like to add to the already included information is that much to the misconception of many marine aquarists, Protein Skimmers DO NOT remove nitrates from the water. They remove proteins, oils, and other dissolved organic compounds from the water that contribute to the build up of Nitrates.
There is however the option, commonly applied in the reefing community, of constructing a Sump with a Refugium chamber. Many marine aquarists grow various types of Macro Algaes in their refugium. These macro algaes do consume Nitrates from the water.
There is also the option of DSB (deep sand bed) in which anaerobic zones develop deep in the substrate where processing of Nitrates to nitrogen takes place.
Sadly, Water changes are still necessary for the purposes already stated.
I do not keep corals so could i go 2 months without a water chang.....its a 55g with 5 clownfish
oh and i know my blurb is very contradictory.
Consider this, would you like to swim in the same water for 2 months that you have eaten in & the same water as your body waste is :!:
I am sure not :shock:

The Nonhuman Primate Contraceptive Core (NPC Core) provides services and coordination of animal usage for U54 Contraceptive Center investigators with approved projects. The NPC Core maintains a pool of cynomolgus macaque females and males in the Division of Animal Resources (DAR), ONPRC, available for contraceptive (mating) trials;coordinates and performs studies on potential contraceptive agents;confirms menstruation and ensures mating has occurred by taking vaginal swabs;performs ultrasounds to monitor for pregnancies;and obtains blood samples for hormone assays, pharmacokinetic studies and metabolic profiles. The Core acclimates the females to a small group (harem) housing situation (10 females to one male) wherein they can be separated for daily vaginal checks, dosing, blood sampling and ultrasound analyses. In addition, the NPC Core trains investigators in established protocols and disseminates information on emerging approaches. The NPC Core represents an efficient use of animals and personnel, and provides assistance that is prohibitively expensive to establish in individual investigator's laboratories. The final stage in the strategy to discover novel agents for female fertility regulation will be to evaluate the efficacy of ovary/reproductive tract-specific agents as reversible or irreversible contraceptive agents in a nonhuman primate model. Cost-effective, experimental contraceptive trials of these inhibitors for each individual project in the U54 will be performed in the NPC Core with the following specific aims:
Specific Aim 1 : demonstrate a contraceptive effect of chronic (6 month) administration of the inhibitor in a breeding colony of macaques exhibiting natural menstrual cycles.
Specific Aim 2 : document if the contraceptive effect is reversible following discontinuation for a 6 month interval Data from these translational experiments conducted in the NPC Core will increase confidence in the feasibility of considering a similar regimen of inhibitor(s) for clinical use as a contraceptive in women.
The NPC Core is uniquely poised to drive cost-effective, proof-of-concept studies in nonhuman primates that can be readily translated to test novel ovai7/reproductive tract-specific agents as reversible or irreversible contraceptives in women. Data from translational studies conducted in the NPC Core will increase confidence in the feasibility of considering a similar regimen of these agents for clinical use as contraceptives in women.

End to corruption in BIR, BoC sought
- Written by EMontano
- Published in Top Stories
- Read: 765
INCOMING President Rodrigo Duterte wants corruption stopped at the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) and the Bureau of Customs (BoC).
Duterte said the public can directly report corrupt practices of government officials to him via 12 phone lines to be open 24 hours a day.
"Makakatawag kayo kung sinoman [kayo]," Duterte said before his audience at the thanksgiving party in Cebu Saturday night.
He said that subordinates can report through the phone lines their corrupt bosses.
"Ngayon kayong mga subordinate, kung ang inyong hepe pipilitin kayo sa pagpirma. Checker kayo o ano, tawagan n'yo ako walay seremonya, ang inyong superior gawin kong checker," he said.
Duterte added that he will not think twice in humiliating corrupt government officials in public.
"Para magtanda... Pahihiyain ko kayo. You better stop it because I will humiliate you. Ganun talaga gawin ko. 'Ikaw, ano ka? Maliit lang ako dito. Halika, utusan mo 'yan (corrupt official),'" he said.
Other government agencies Duterte wants to be cleaned up include the Department of Transportation and Communications and the Department of Public Works and Highways.
During his speech, which lasted for more than 40 minutes, Duterte said he would feel successful as a president if he is able to rid the government of corruption, reduce criminality by getting rid illegal drugs and sign peace deals with the Communist Party of the Philippines, the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) and the Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF).
He also expressed determination to work for the government's shift to a federal system.
"If I could talk to the [MILF, MNLF] tapos makakuha ako ng garantiya na in the meantime na magsisige pa tayong magsisikap para sa federal system, tigil muna tayo ng giyera... Kung mapaplantsa ko lang 'yan, tapos masolusyonan ko droga and corruption, okey na ako," Duterte said.
He also reiterated that he intends to neutralize as many drug dealers during his six-year term to solve the drug problem in the country.
Under his administration, Duterte said he wants the long lines at the BIR, the Land Transportation Office (LTO), and the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) to stop.
He said that applicants for licenses or passports should be advised to return at a specific date so they do not have to wait in line.
Duterte also wants to make it easy for people to secure police clearance or get death benefits and pension of widows of policemen and soldiers.
He said the widows should not be made to go to the office in Manila to have their papers processed.
Instead, the main office in Manila should be the one to process the claims and send them to the regional office where someone is assigned so the widows would no longer have to travel far.
"These are the small things that I want to correct," he said.
