Co-directors PonJola Coney, MD and Marcie Wright, PhD, MPH, and co-investigator Cathy Howard, PhD will work in partnership with the research and research training cores, the VCU Office of Community Engagement and the Center on Health Disparities to use community outreach core resources more efficiently and effectively to achieve the goals and objectives of the Community Engagement and Outreach Core (CEOC). Through the outreach activities of the previous Center of Excellence (COE), we have established excellent working relationships with public housing residents, public agencies, including the Virginia Department of Health, community health centers, public schools, the faith community, and neighborhood organizations. Through efforts of this proposal, we plan to expand and enhance dissemination of resources and participation of community partners in institutional research and research training activities, and create synergistic opportunities to address health needs of the community.

Patients with both chronic pain and substance use disorders offer special challenges and opportunities. They represent a large number of patients with significant costs to themselves and society that translate into poor outcome. The challenges in defining addiction in patients with chronic pain, particularly in those treated with chronic opioid therapy, have distracted the healthcare community from designing effective treatment programs. Traditional treatment programs for chronic pain disorders or substance use disorders are incapable of addressing the issues of the patients' 'other' problem. Treatment devolves to prescribing opioid medications with the belief that both disorders will be treated at least in part, which is deemed better than receiving no treatment at all. Patients are actually concerned about the risks of this type of treatment, and even if it did offer significant benefits, physicians demonstrate a lack of knowledge and skill in administering opioids to these patients. The inadequate treatment of either chronic pain or addiction interferes with the treatment of the other condition and necessitates the design of new treatment paradigms. A new approach to patients with both chronic pain and addiction should start with an evaluation and formulation of these patients to determine the different domains that contribute to their disability (diseases, dimensions, behaviors, life stories). A comprehensive formulation provides the appropriate platform for the implementation of an integrated program of therapy for both conditions that can be intensified to provide more, rather than less, care for the patient that does not meet the goals of functional rehabilitation.

This year, the Rams' reign as CIAA diamond kings ended in a manner that was shocking and unexpected. WSSU (31-22) breezed through the first two rounds of the conference tournament, but had a crash landing in the final round. In losing twice to Chowan, the Rams surrendered the league crown.
The familiar phrase, "It's not how you start, but how you finish," is so appropriate for what happened to Winston-Salem State in the finals of the CIAA baseball tournament last Saturday.

Reading through a menu at one of the local crepe places (which recently have been sprouting like wild mushrooms after a rainstorm) is like being at the California Pizza Kitchen and wondering what happened to the plain old pepperoni pie: Cuisines from around the world are etched on the tabula rasa that was the crepe.
This is not entirely a bad thing. Unlike the burrito, which remains a distinctly ethnic (and so, not very changeable) offering, the crepe has taken an upwardly mobile step or two, and flowered in the process. It may have become yuppie fare, but it's also become interesting in its variousness, and if a crepe costs a few dollars more than a burrito, it's still one of the best deals going at full-service restaurants.
Valencia Crepes is a true full-service crepe cafe -- a simple, airy dining room, sunny near the front windows (which gaze onto the pageant of Valencia Street), quieter and dimmer toward the rear. We sat in the gently lit middle latitudes, near a rushed young man in business clothes whose mobile phone kept trilling.
The menu offers, besides a wide variety of savory and sweet crepes, a small selection of sandwiches, salads, soups, and omelets; but even if these choices were missing, the bill of fare would remain extensive. Its apotheosis is the "create your own" crepe, which is very much like assembling your own pizza from a wide list of ingredients.
The easier way is to order a prefab crepe, such as the fajita ($7.95). It was the most burrito-ish crepe on the menu, with grilled chicken, green chilis, tomato, bell pepper, onion, cilantro, and cheddar, topped with guacamole. And while it wasn't bad, it lacked the juicy zing of a good burrito. The guac needed salt, and the green chilis didn't live up to their promise of heat. (The crepe itself was folded like an omelet into a half-moon -- quite different from the style of Parisian crepe carts. They roll the crepes into a flat flute shape, so you can hold it at one end while eating the other.)
A better choice was the shrimp creole ($7.95), whose spicy red sauce delivered some welcome punch. Unlike the fajita crepe, which was stuffed with ingredients that seemed to cancel each other out, the creole crepe was filled only with shrimp, mushrooms, basil, and garlic -- a simplicity that kept the flavors from cramping.
All crepe dishes at Valencia Crepes are served with a side order of seasoned grilled potatoes. These were nicely tender but utterly lacking in flavor. They also added considerable starch to a meal that was already starchy.
An extra $1.50 buys a cup of soup -- for me, a vegetable minestrone laden with carrots, celery, and tomato. Like the potatoes, the minestrone seemed not to have been salted at all, and it needed quite a few jolts before coming to wobbly life. (A minestrone of carrots and celery is pretty Spartan: How about some pasta, beans, and zucchini, too?)
Desserts, like main courses, consist mainly of crepes. The best one was the cinnamon ($3.75). It was stuffed with walnuts, brown sugar, and cinnamon, producing an effect in the mouth similar to that of cinnamon toast. The big puff of whipped cream on top was visually dramatic but fattening just to look at; the dish would have worked as well with half as much whipped cream, or even less.
The chocolate-hazelnut crepe ($4.75) was an extravaganza, but not very good. The crepe was filled with Nutella (the chocolate-hazelnut paste from Italy) and walnuts, then buried in whipped cream. Chocolate and hazelnut are a classic and irresistible combination, but the whipped cream was overkill and the crepe itself a little tough.
The Crepevine, on Irving between Seventh and Eighth avenues, benefits from N Judah traffic and the impoverished but upmarket professional students of nearby UCSF. It's bigger, darker, and busier than Valencia Crepes, but it's less stylish: All the dark wood reminded me of a beer hall.
It also doesn't offer full table service. You order at the counter (paying in cash only!), and then carry a number, like a little flagpole, back to your table, where staff delivers the food.
The Crepevine's main menu is quietly vegetarian, but the daily specials sometimes include choices with a bit more heft, such as a chicken-pesto crepe ($6.45). This dish featured a crepe filled with roasted chicken, pesto, mushrooms, and white cheese and topped with a decent marinara sauce.
The marinara sauce also appeared atop the lasagna "taste-alike" (menuspeak) crepe ($5.95), which did taste creditably like lasagna (without meat). The crepe was stuffed with cheddar, mozzarella, and cottage cheeses; mushrooms; eggplant; tomatoes; spinach; and onions -- a slathering of ingredients so heavy that the crepe itself ceased to matter.
Again, house potatoes: These were crispier than at Valencia Crepes and in slightly less desperate need of salt, but a starch overload all the same. And the black bean soup ($1.95), while nearly thick enough to qualify as a stew, could have used some spicing: a dash of chili powder and cumin, maybe? Or chopped cilantro, salsa, Tabasco? The beans had a good meaty texture, but they seemed bland.
All these crepes were well and generously made, diverse and tasty, but none of them were special. Nor were they as convenient -- or cheap -- as true fast food, such as a hamburger or a burrito. For one-stop shopping in ethnic variety, the pizza is still a match for the crepe, and it offers the advantage of being communal: An entire table can share a pie. But if the crepe is OK food, it's solid across the board -- freshly prepared and served in handsome places by professional staff, for not much money. Not bad for a humble little immigrant from France.

To embed, copy and paste the code into your website or blog:
The Division of Investment Management (the Division) of the Securities and Exchange Commission recently issued guidance (the Guidance) to investment advisers regarding the applicability to social media of Rule 206(4)-1(a)(1) (the Rule) under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, which generally bans the use of testimonial advertisements. In the Guidance, the staff of the Division provided a series of Q&As outlining when investment advisers and investment adviser representatives are permitted to use social media and publish public commentary about the adviser from third party social media sites on an adviser's own site.
The Rule was adopted to prevent misleading testimonial advertisements, which by their nature would emphasize clients' experiences favorable to the adviser and ignore unfavorable experiences. Such testimonial advertising could lead to a fraudulent impression that the experience in the testimonial is typical of the adviser's clients. Whether a statement is testimonial is a "facts and circumstances" analysis, and SEC staff has indicated that a testimonial would include statements regarding a client's experience or 'endorsement of an adviser. Given the rise of social media and clients' use of social media regarding investment advisers, questions have arisen regarding how investment advisers may interact with independent social media sites that may include comments that could be viewed as "testimonial." The Guidance provides Q&As from the Division that attempt to address these issues.
Guidance Highlights
The Guidance gave the Division staff's views on the following areas:
Publishing Public Comments from an Independent Social Media Site. An investment adviser may publish all the public comments about the adviser from an independent social media site on the adviser's own social media site or website, subject to certain conditions.1 First, the adviser must post all of the comments from the independent social media site in a content-neutral way (such as chronological) and may not emphasize certain comments above others. Second, the adviser must have no ability to control which public commentary is included on the independent site, and the site must allow for the viewing of all comments and the updating of comments on a real-time basis. Third, there can be no material connection between the independent social media site and the investment adviser. Finally, the adviser cannot author its own commentary (either under its own name or anonymously) on the independent site, be able to edit or prioritize the commentary, or be able to suppress any commentary in whole or in part.
Advertising on Independent Social Media Sites. An adviser could publish public commentary from an independent site even if the site features advertising from the adviser. However, the adviser must comply with the independent factors in the Guidance and the advertisement must be easily recognizable as a sponsored statement.
References to Independent Social Media Commentary on Non-Social Media Advertising. An investment adviser could reference public commentary on an independent social media site in its non-social media advertising. For example, the Guidance states that a newspaper ad with the statement "see us on [independent social media site]" would be permissible. However, to quote a particular comment from an independent social media site in an adviser's non-social media advertising would be considered an impermissible testimonial under the Rule.
Client Lists. Under the Guidance, a list of "friends" or "contacts" on an adviser's social media site would not be considered testimonial, provided that the adviser does not attempt to create the inference that such "friends" have experienced favorable results from the adviser.
Fan Pages. Finally, the Guidance provides that a third party's creation of an unconnected fan page would generally not implicate the Rule. However, the Guidance cautions advisers from publishing content from or driving traffic to such sites, particularly if they do not meet the independence standards in the Guidance.
Investment advisers should review the Guidance (which can be found here). Investment advisers should also review their use of social media and their policies and procedures regarding social media to ensure they are consistent with the Guidance. Please contact us at Baker Donelson if you have questions regarding the Guidance or your firm's use of social media.
1 A site would not be independent if the investment adviser compensated a social media user for writing commentary or prioritized, removed or edited the commentary. Also, an investment adviser could not have a supervised person of the adviser post commentary on an independent social media site.

Title: On Gurnenthar
Author: Beer Good
Rating: PG13
Word Count: 850
Characters/Pairing: Xander/Anya
Fandom: Buffy, s5 (circa "Into The Woods")
Disclaimer: Joss is on strike. I'm not.
Summary: Who was Gurnenthar, how did he ascend, and what does it have to do with Christmas?
On Gurnenthar
The weeks before Christmas are exhausting for customers and shopkeepers alike. But on Sunday they closed up the Magic Box a little earlier and started walking home. Xander (who had been bribed into helping out every day of the last two weeks with hinted offers of sexual favours he had usually been too tired to take complete advantage of) was taking deep breaths to clear his mind of magic items and customers, and Anya was all abuzz with the excitement of having sold so much that they would have to start Monday by calling every magic wholesaler in California; after all, there were 7 more days of shopping to go. And as fascinating a subject as that was, Xander had been stocking shelves and bagging charms for 10 hours per day, and the second he got a word in edgewise he tried to steer the conversation in another direction. (The fact that they were walking down Main Street and Xander was pretty sure that with Anya this hyper, the conversation would turn to intimate sexual details pretty soon, probably played in as well.)
"So... who's Gurnenthar?"
"And the hellebore root is just flying off the..." Anya frowned. "Gurnenthar? Why?"
"I was just wondering... That banner we hung in the store, wishing people a happy Winter Solstice, Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa and Gurnenthar's Ascendance. I've never heard of that last one."
"Oh, it's just an old demon legend. Sort of like a demonic Christmas, except with beheadings instead of carols. Speaking of beheadings, we really need to stock up on those shrunken -"
"Demonic Christmas? That sounds... interesting." Xander put his arm around her shoulders as they walked. "I bet there's a story behind that, huh?"
"Sure," Anya leaned into him and matched her steps to his, "but you never like it when I talk about demon stuff."
"Well, I... like that you like it."
Anya gave him a curious look, then shrugged. "Fine, I'll tell you. Back in the fourth century there was this Gothic warrior named Gurnenthar, who was strong and brave and feared throughout the blah-de-blah-de-blah as those guys always were. He and his fellow barbarians were killing and robbing their way through Greece when he heard about this mighty wizard named Agios Nikolaos, who was supposed to be very rich and generous. So being an enterprising man, Gurnenthar naturally he thought he could convince Agios to be generous to him."
"And I'm guessing he wasn't going to use big blue Bambi eyes to convince him?"
"Well, duh. So when they got there, Agios took one look at their battle axes and offered them a deal: if they let him live, he'd help Gurnenthar and his eight most trusted men ascend to pure demonhood."
Xander flinched. "Pure demon? As in giant people-eating mayoral snakes?"
"Same principle, different demon. Agios told them that as pillaging barbarians, they would have a great time being chaos demons, since it wouldn't really be much of a change. He gave them this whole peptalk about how mighty they would be, 'all slime and antlers new torment to bring, crimson of muzzle and swift of wing', yada yada yada. Only he 'forgot' to mention that obviously, chaos demons cannot be pure."
"Well, obviously. Because... um..."
"...Because purity requires order, Xander. Chaos is never pure."
"I knew that."
"But anyway, they bought it and agreed to let him turn them into demons, and of course they ended up as his minions. I think he used them as pack animals or something."
Their own street was a lot less crowded than Main Street, and with darkness beginning to fall and Christmas decorations lighting up the windows, the stress of the last few days was almost forgotten. "So," Xander summed up, "Gurnenthar didn't so much ascend as..."
"...get screwed big time."
"And demons celebrate this?"
"Well, demons aren't much for happy endings. Stories of spite and vengeance are much more fun."
"But why on Christmas?"
Anya shrugged. "That's when it happened."
They had just reached the apartment, when suddenly Xander stopped with his hand on the doorknob. "Woah, hang on a second. Be kind, rewind. Did you just say that," he counted off on his fingers, "Gurnenthar got turned into a demon that has antlers, a red nose, can fly, and works for a generous man named Nicholas on Christmas?"
"And this would be what kind of chaos demon, exactly?"
"I think it's called a Ryu'dolf."
Xander just stared at her.
"What?" Anya frowned. "Is this one of those pop culture things again?" She allowed him to stew in his own how-do-I-explain-this-without-sounding-condescending juices for a few seconds, then smiled and put her arms around his neck. "Relax, Xander. I'm just pulling your leg. And in about 10 seconds I'm going to thank you for helping out all week by pulling other parts of your body as well, so you better get that door open if you don't want your neighbors to see."
Suddenly, Xander was in a big hurry to get them both inside.
Mr Roberts, the janitor, frowned as he heard the sounds from the apartment above his. God, did those two kids ever stop? Never mind; he had work to do. He went over his inventory of cleaning products once more, re-checking the list of stuff he had to buy before the stores ran out. If he ever found out who dumped buckets of sticky slime around the chimney every goddamn Christmas, he'd make that bastard pay.

It is often eaten at breakfast with cassava meal (manioc) or with tapioca and sugar. The açaí fruit is rich in nutrients and is found in many Brazilian prepared foods. The fruit is most popularly used to make juice, but is also found in ice cream, popsicles, and various desserts. Açaí seeds can be crushed to produce a green oil that has been used as a folk remedy for scrofula (a type of tuberculosis). The roasted, crushed seeds, consumed as tea, are a traditional remedy for fever. Tea made from the root is a folk remedy for jaundice and anemia. Tea made from the grated fruit rind has been used topically as a wash for skin ulcers. Boiled preparations of açaí root have been used traditionally to treat many diseases, including diabetes, hepatitis, malaria, kidney disease, and dysmenorrhea (menstrual pain). No clinical trials of açaí for the prevention or treatment of any health condition have been published in the medical literature.

I just finished assembling this, plugged it in, and it's just awesome. This allows us to use a beautiful existing tabletop with the adjustable height legs. Plus, I can put all my computer equipment on top - these legs can hold it all. Assembly was relatively simple - in fact, as simple as the IKEA furniture we put together recently. As a woman working alone, I could do it in less than 2 hours. A great product.

I don't know anyone who doesn't love the Sofa Bar. Even the most dedicated North of the River person starts revising their attitude to the south when you take them there. In the wastelandy bit of Lavender Hill, opposite a set of tower blocks it, and its sister restaurant the Drawing Room, form the frontage of the unpromising Battersea Business Centre, though confusingly both are listed under "The Tea Gallery" in the phone book. It's got to be one of the best bars in London.
It's also one of the more barking, being, it seems, the final resting place of all those things you see in junk shops and never quite have the nerve to buy yourself.
The basic theme of orange, imperial blue and gold is heightened by more eccentric objects than all the architectural salvage shops on the North End Road.
You stub your fags out in the lap of a golden mermaid or the mouth of a ceramic frog, tables are covered in stately-home curtain fabric, plates don't match.
Food is classy but unpretentious: hearty quantities of really good bread made on the premises, lots of olive oil, grilling and spices, everything done with a casual cosiness that gives the impression of going round to a really nice person's house and finding that a load of other lovely people have dropped in at the same time.
As long as you're not a complete toper you can eat yourself to a standstill for around pounds 20. And unless you're the kind of person who demands that their food arrive within two minutes of ordering, it's hard to fault.
And yet, here's the mystery: the place is often only about half full. You see people walking along the pavement and reeling in delight when they glance in through the windows, but not everyone has the sense to push open the door. I can only think that it's because most places that look like this are in areas like Notting Hill, where the mumbling Trustafarian ghastliness of the clientele and the exaggerated prices would discourage any normal person.
Don't be fooled: this place deserves to be heaving; if you're ever sloping past, drop in and
be delighted.

MOTION TO INSTRUCT CONFEREES ON H.R. 4297, TAX RELIEF EXTENSION RECONCILIATION ACT OF 2005 -- (House of Representatives - March 15, 2006)
Mr. SCOTT of Georgia. Madam Speaker, I thank very much my distinguished friend from Tennessee. It is a pleasure and, quite frankly, an honor to be on the floor with you tonight to talk about this extraordinary problem and crisis that this country is faced with.
Without question, you are absolutely right. We cannot have national security if we do not have financial security, and we do not have financial security today. Now, let me just tell you and I hope the American people are paying attention to us tonight because we are here to state some important truths and facts about the financial health of this country, and our financial health is not well.
This President, this administration and this Republican-controlled Congress is heading us straight down the path of financial ruin and financial disaster.
Let me just give you one very salient point. Under this President, this Republican-controlled Congress, we have borrowed more money from foreign governments and from foreign interests than all of the preceding 42 Presidents in the history of the United States. Hear me again. If that does not wake you up and let you know that we are headed for disaster, this President, this Republican-controlled Congress has borrowed more money from foreign governments and foreign financial institutions than all of the preceding past 42 Presidents.
That means that since 1789, the very beginning of this country, to the year 2000, 211 years, through the Revolutionary War, through the foundation of the country, through the Spanish-American War, through the Civil War, through the Mexican War, through World War I, through a depression, through World War II, the Vietnam War, through the Korean War, through all of the upheavals, the economic downturns of this great country, through all of that, yet this President in the last 5 years has borrowed more money from foreign governments than all of our previous Presidents in this history. That is phenomenal. That lets you know that we are in serious, serious trouble.
As I have said time and time again, no greater founding father was there than Alexander Hamilton who founded the financial system of our country, and it was Alexander Hamilton who said, Woe be it unto this country if we fall under the heel of our finances being controlled by foreign interests. Alexander Hamilton himself was a foreigner, as were many of the Founding Fathers of this country. They understood that, and here we are today beholden on our financial security.
Here are the facts. In the last 211 years, from 1789 to 2000, under 42 Presidents, this country borrowed $1.01 trillion. In the last 5 years, under this Republican President and this Republican-led Congress, we have borrowed $1.05 trillion. That is not healthy. That is not the way you have got to go to have a solid country, and now we are here saying we are going to raise the debt ceiling so that we can borrow more. We are dealing with a budget that is ratcheted with devastating cuts time after time.
As the gentleman from Tennessee pointed out, just look at how this Nation is aching and hurting from the mismanagement of Katrina. Families still devastated, an entire important coastline of this country devastated.
And we cannot even deal with that. And some of the very programs, community block grants, being cut. Aid to our veterans, talk about national security, being cut by $2.1 billion. Help to our farmers, to help them with the drought, to help them with the devastation of Katrina, cut, all for the purpose of making unwise tax cuts to the top 10 percent of the wealthy in this country permanent at a time of such great uncertainty.
And then to borrow the rest of the money for the tax cuts from, guess where, from China, from Japan, from India and from OPEC. Now, let me tell you how serious this is, ladies and gentlemen. The U.S. is becoming too increasingly dependent on foreign lenders for our debt. We are handing over this country on a platter to foreign countries. The Dubai Ports deal was just the beginning, just the tip of the iceberg.
And I just want to say how proud I am to say I am a United States Congressman. Because finally this Congress stood up to this administration, both Democrats and Republicans, and said no, no more, and turned down that Dubai Ports deal. Can you imagine? How unwise, to turn our port security over. Even the thought of it.
And that is what disturbs me so much when we talk about security. When you talk about national security and financial security, that is the number one issue on the minds of America today. Two things: Can this government keep us safe as a country? Can they keep us alive? Can they keep our lives safe, and then can they keep our money safe? Well, you can't keep our money safe; you certainly can't keep our lives safe. And that is the particular situation we are in today.
Let me just tell you how serious this issue is. Foreign lenders hold a total of $2.174 trillion of our public debt. And quite honestly, in the last 10 years, they hold 90 percent of it. In other words, every dime that we are using for our government right now we are borrowing it from China and India. Japan, for example, now owns $682.8 billion of our debt. China owns $250 billion of our debt. England, the United Kingdom, owns $223 billion. The Caribbean Banking Center owns $115.3 billion. Taiwan, $71.3 billion. OPEC countries, OPEC, already in the Middle East we are so dependent on oil that they are holding us hostage on that now, but some of these same companies are holding our debt.
America, wake up. We have got to begin to step forward and take responsibility for our financial house. I am here to tell you there is nothing more important than keeping our money straight. Lord knows, if the American people across this country, if they ran their little families, if they ran their businesses the way we are running this government, it would be bankrupt.
So I am delighted to be here tonight to join with my distinguished colleague, Mr. Tanner, to talk about this issue. Because I believe that it is the number one issue facing the survival of this country. And let me just say this. If you look through the history books, JOHN, the history books are cluttered with the wreckage of so many great civilizations. And on the wretched bones of those great civilizations are written those pathetic words: Too late. They moved too late to save themselves.
Let us not move too late in this country. The American people are expecting us not to move too late, and we must not. And one of the first steps is to follow your lead and get some sanity. Let us instruct the conference committee to not increase the debt and let us not raise the debt ceiling limit.
Mr. SCOTT of Georgia. Madam Speaker, first, I want to respond to something my distinguished colleague from the other side said. Now you talk about smoke and mirrors. For him to say on our side that we are talking about raising taxes is so disingenuous. Nobody is talking about raising taxes. We are talking about fiscal responsibility and pay-as-you-go responsibilities.
We are saying that we do not want to cut vital services to the American people and then go borrow more money that we have to pay interest on. That, in effect, when you put it altogether, if anybody is talking about raising taxes, it is the Republicans. Somebody has to pay for this. You know who is going to pay for it, our grandchildren and our children based on their proposals.
No, sir, you are not going to be able to depend on Democrats this night that we are talking about raising taxes. Democrats are talking about keeping our taxes low and bringing fiscal responsibility back to this House.
You talk about responsibility. When Democrats were in control, when President Clinton was there, he left a several trillion dollar surplus. In just 5 years, this President and this Republican-led Congress has squandered that surplus. So when you talk about who is more responsible for the taxpayers' money, it is Democrats, not Republicans. And the American people are not going to be fooled by this smoke and mirrors of consistently trying to paint the Democrats as being for raising taxes and they for not. The Republicans are for raising taxes and raising the debt ceiling.
Madam Speaker, I want to show this chart. It is not as big as your chart, but the Republicans have increased the debt limit by $3 trillion. I have been here 4 years, and this is the fourth time that the Republicans have asked to raise the debt ceiling so they can borrow more money.
In June, 2002, they asked to raise the debt ceiling by $452 billion. In May, 2003, they asked to raise the debt ceiling by $984 billion. In November of 2004, they raised the debt ceiling by $800 billion, all of which we are borrowing against, against the best national security interests of this country, against the best financial security interests of this country.
Mr. RYAN of Wisconsin. Madam Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume.
I hope the gentleman appreciates the fact that I yielded him a minute to beat me up some more.
Mr. SCOTT of Georgia. Madam Speaker, will the gentleman yield?
Mr. RYAN of Wisconsin. I yield to the gentleman from Georgia.
Mr. SCOTT of Georgia. Madam Speaker, let me assure the gentleman it was not beating him up. He is a great gentleman, but it is some of the policies that have been emanating from the gentleman's leadership.

- Beginner Planted Aquarium (http://www.tropicalfishkeeping.com/beginner-planted-aquarium/)
- - Sand question. (http://www.tropicalfishkeeping.com/beginner-planted-aquarium/sand-question-122633/)
Sand question.
Has anyone just added sand over the gravel instead of disrupting the tank with a substrate change?
I did something kind of close,I had a cycled 10 gallon gravel tank. and Bought a 35 gallon tank and transferred everything filter materiel included into the 35 with no fish to start. But had only a part bag of old play sand left over.So I used the gravel from the 10 gallon first and then added the sand on top. Tank as been running for 7 weeks and everything as been good:-D!
PS: is that a Scout in your profile Pic??? Cool truck!!
Unless you put enough sand in to completely cover the gravel and account for it settling in between the gravel. The sand will just settled in between and the gravel and the gravel will still show up. This might take awhile but eventually it will happen.
Posted via Mobile Device
Possibly, yes, as you would be suddenly suffocating the existing substrate. It is never good to mix different substrates, thinking here of different sizes, as Boredomb mentioned; they will mix with the gravel on top.
The substrate is the most obvious part of the aquascape if it is "different" in some way, and as it is also the most complicated to replace it is best to decide what you want and do it at the start. I have changed my tank substrates over many times over the years, and during the past 2 years five of seven tanks were torn down and changed. It is the easiest way to do it.
As long as the plants are thriving you should be fine.
My knee jerk response would have been it's ok as long as you add enough to cover the gravel completely; however, I wasn't thinking about the possibility of suffocating the existing substrate. Maybe a gradual addition would work. I could see where a mixture could work well for root systems and a little gravel on the surface would look very natural (as long as it is a natural color).
Hmmm... just take out the gravel and add the sand.... no problem.
Ask for one of these for Christmas...
and one of these...
ooooo.... and you've got to have one of these
The fish might even have some fun.

Bugsy Ray
Oct., 1960
Allen County
Indiana, USA
Sep. 15, 1978
Allen County
Indiana, USA
The life story of Bugsy started when the young son of a family friend came to our house with a puppy he had gotten from neighbors in their trailer court that his parents wouldn`t let him keep. My Mom took the dog in so he wouldn`t have to take him back where he got him or to a shelter. Little did we know how important he would be in our lives. In earlier years we had cats that the dog seemed to get along with o.k. A few years later we moved and the dog would sometimes run back to the old house, which was less than a quarter mile away.
I went through grade, middle and high school and the dog was always there. I lost my father, started my first full time job and had five years there and we still had the same dog. Some neighbors who had moved away and came back to visit some of us years later were absolutely surprised to see we STILL had our dog. I was leaving for work one morning and I noticed the dog was not moving like he normally did. I let him outside as usual as he was very good about staying in the yard without a chain.
When I got home in the afternoon he wasn`t there. I looked around the neighborhood, searched nearby streets and residential areas. Later, I checked with the animal shelter. Ran ads in both our newspapers and offered a reward. Went over the same areas, a nearby woods and a since developed large acreage weedy area. We never found him. I couldn`t believe it. It took what seemed like forever to accept that he would never be back again. He was a great pet, friend and companion who will never be equaled.
♥ A sincere thank you to those who have stopped by to read about the first pet who was a major part in the lives of my family. ♥

Six Things To Know About The 2010 Mazda3
"Six?" you wonder. "Isn't this about the Mazda3?" Well, there are two body styles, so two times three . . .
Yes, 2010. The software company has rolled out a raft of new tools for the design, analysis, and simulation of products. Virtual prototype first, then move on to the real thing.
Faurecia designers and engineers set out to make an interior that is lighter and more recyclable than conventional ones. They've developed something that may lead to a reconsideration of how and with what materials ought to be assembled.
Taiwan Takes On The Global Slowdown
A focus on electronics and the growth of indigenous manufacturers are occurring in this Asian country.
Plastic Processing for Nicer Interiors
How a new process can result in soft-touch instrument panels, a key attribute of today's desirable vehicles.
Web 2.0. Manufacturing 2.0. Enterprise 2.0. These terms point to the same goal: Using the web to promote collaborative work.
What Auto Interior People Can Learn from Herman Miller
Let's face it, for years the office chair was nothing more than a commodity... until Herman Miller produced the iconic Aeron. Maybe there is a lesson here.
The fact that it's at least a year before an automaker rolls a single plug-in vehicle onto a dealer lot is irrelevant. For GM and Toyota, the hard sell on who has the better battery blueprint has already started.
Off-the-Shelf Hydraulics & The X Prize: Lightning Hybrids
X Prize competitor Lightning Hybrids is using off-the-shelf hydraulics to bust loose at 0-60 mph in six seconds and still get 150 mpg.
Things change, even if we don't think about it.

Gave you these roses now but I won't let them
Waken me, that I would still
Be sleeping sound its an endless quest to
Maintain when no one ever told me, break flesh
Tears all are put your faith in all
Your life regret's how I felt when I
Tell you all my lies as I
Take you give me seven more I don't, I
Would still be sleeping sound its an endless quest to
Maintain when no one else the truth be told
I'm never gonna know miami miami miami well
Every hour on the pedal till I break in
Two and if you wanna take me
To want you to be alive to eat
All of my head this all was only wishful
Thinkin, this would have been the
Last to the right, to fight
By myself sick waves of bitter fashion, ripped
Down the shield that i, I believe in you
So much I could die for the
Last to the left we will fight to the
Death to the cannons roar, their bodies
Dance ashore, a pill, and I
Know won't let go too soon you speak to
Me is everybody going crazy tell me what it was
That we play but, I know, and
I'm rotting out my bedside, and
You can tear us apart but you don't ever tell
Me don't tell me I know get
Away from this light, I don't know please speak

Plug-in to integrate SAM Broadcaster with your WordPress site
Before you install the WordPress plug-in, you will need to configure both SAM
Broadcaster and your mySQL database to allow your webserver to access them.
It is highly recommended that you set up a mySQL user specifically for use by the plug-in. This user only requires SELECT access on the songlist, requestlist, and queuelist tables of your SAM database. It does not require any global access privileges, nor does it need to be able to modify any data in your database.
For security reasons, the plug-in will NOT allow you to use the "root" user, even if you have configured it to be allowed external access. For instructions on how to add a new mySQL user, please see http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/adding-users.html.
It is also recommended that you take steps to secure your installation of mySQL before allowing external access by this, or any other application or user. For information on how to secure your mySQL installation, please see http://www.mysql.com/why-mysql/white-papers/a-guide-to-securing-mysql-on-windows/.
There are lot of different options you configure in SAM Broadcaster related to how it handles incoming requests. Most of these are fairly self explanatory and can (and should) be adjusted over time to best suit your own needs as well as those of your visitors. I will only cover those settings which are necessary to allow the plug-in to function.
For information on the additional Request Policy settings in SAM Broadcaster, please see your SAM Broadcaster documentation or integrated help files.
You will also need to ensure that your firewall and/or router are configured to allow incoming connections on the proper ports for MySQL and SAM Broadcaster. By default, these ports are 1221 for SAM Broadcaster and 3306 for MySQL.
Once this is done, the hard part is out of the way. Installation and configuration of the plug-in itself is very easy and straight forward.
Enter the Connection Details for your SAM Broadcaster Database.
For security reasons, the "root" user should never be used for this or any other web based application. For this reason, the plug-in will not allow to use "root" as the database user name.
It is recommended that you configure a new database user specifically for
use by the plug-in and only give it SELECT access on your SAM Database.
The plug-in does not need, nor would it make use of, any other privileges.
Requires: 3.5.0 or higher
Compatible up to: 4.2.12
Last Updated: 2 years ago
Active Installs: 200+
