If there is one band of the moment who prove that geek is most definitely chic, it is the Chicago "math-rock" quartet Maps & Atlases.
As the name suggests, precision, timing and carefully composed structure have provided the basis of the Maps sound since they formed, in 2004. Nowadays their music is decorated with joyous folk riffs, fluttery bass lines and liberal bouts of jangly percussion, and all of these are showcased straight away with the set's launcher, "Pigeon".
The packed audience is on-board from the off – clapping along, cheering and shouting requests. The band's debut album, Perch Patchwork, released in summer 2010, was the culmination of seven diligent years (with a couple of critically-acclaimed EPs along the way, one of them selling so well it went out of print). On record, they have one of the most exciting styles on today's indie scene. The smiley exuberance of this show makes it sound even better.
Crowded on to XOYO's mini-stage, the band – fronted by Dave , who sports a long, wizardly beard, 1970s dad glasses and a cowboy shirt – look like they met in a geography class at college. To be fair, so do most of the audience. Musically, aspects of country are blended tightly with folk, good old-fashioned rock'n'roll (yet another good example of why rock is not dead) and Dave's distinctive, high-pitched Americana vocals, which bite to the crowd's delight on the self-indulgent ballad "If This Is". All this is underpinned with fluid organic melodies and driving drums – if Kings of Leon were happier souls, this might be the kind of gig they would play.
Rounding off the set with the forthcoming single, "Living Decorations", Dave tells the adoring crowd that he loves London and hopes they will have the band back again. As his words are followed by an encore that sees the band perform an impromptu acoustic number in the middle of the floor, it seems highly likely he will get his wish.

What Civil Litigators Need to Know About Privilege
Tuesday, April 28, 2015
Alternate date: Thursday, June 18, 2015 [click to view options]
CPD Hours*
Privilege—if you're like most lawyers, you believe you've got a handle on it. But the complexity and potential repercussions of the issues sometimes escape notice. For example, how does privilege protect the fruits of internal corporate investigations? What are the boundaries of common interest/joint defence privilege and how can you protect them? How broad is the protection for communications to settle a matter and can you "contract out" of general settlement privilege principles in mediation agreements? Find out exactly what you need to know from our panel of experienced litigators in the On-Demand Webcast.

CM school board gives support to Veterans Memorial Park plan
It was a good news/bad news evening for the seven members of the Central Montcalm Public School Board of Education at its monthly meeting Wednesday. The board voted to endorse a Stanton Veterans Memorial Park project and heard of an increase in projected student enrollment. It also conducted two student disciplinary hearings and agreed to accept the resignation of a support staff member.

A neighbor uses rope lights on pegs about 2' off the ground to edge his
sidewalks and edge around the beds. Being higher up, it doesn't get covered
by plants as easily and if it does get a few leaves hanging over it, the
"rope" still peaks out enough to "show one the way." It looks pretty nice
and is low voltage, too. As for the dog, there are some small, battery
operated lights you might be able to attach to her collar. If not that,
then you can get one of those reflective one, so that even a good moon's
light will cause it to shine for you. Of course, if you know a supplier of
those chemical glow in the dark necklaces you see in theme parks, you could
use that, too.

Garden Lighting....
Curious how everyone lights up your pathways, open areas and what have
I a have a zillion Malibu lights (cheap ones) but of course the plants
all cover them up and they work for crap.
I am thinking of installing one of those huge lights on my roof, flip of
a switch and it is daylight. Really don't want to do that, but need to
be able to see out there.
Currently wildlife is everywhere, so you might step on something... got
that darn heron back...fox... and who knows what else, can't see!
I mostly worry about my dog, she is quiet and just moseys to the back of
the yard and appears back at the door later. The yard is fenced in and
locked, so she can't get out, but being a black cocker spaniel you can't
see her either!

NAPA Ad has to go!
Not sure if anyone else is having issues but anytime the NAPA banner Ad pops up, none of the drop down options in the tool bar work. So no search or mark threads as read option.
Not seeing an issue with it here?
I dont know...if I drag my mouse over say quick links and click it the box will oly open a tiny bit w/o clickable options. I only have this issue with the napa ad.
I am seeing the same issue with the STP ad. Can't get to the subscribed threads link because the ad covers it up. Sometimes it covers it up - other times it doesn't - and it's not always an STP ad - sometimes its CenturyLink and other things. Bottom line is that it has been coded to stay on top in some cases and that's when it covers up the drop down menu...
For reference it's the video ad below the Quick Links and Logout options on the top menu.

It has recently been in the news that Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe distanced Japan from its 1993 apology for Imperial Japan's actions in confining large numbers of young women, mostly Korean, Chinese, or other Southeast Asian, for the purpose of providing sexual services to Japanese troops. As those who follow international news know, Abe relies on the support of Japan's nationalistic elements, who prefer to see all of Japan's WWII actions in a much less negative light than most historians do. Whatever his personal beliefs, it is widely assumed that this is Abe's primary reason for his actions.
I teach conversational English in Japan and I often discuss the topics of the day with my students. They are usually keen to do so, but I've noticed their interest and enthusiasm drops somewhat when this topic is raised, though they do gamely have a go at it. This lack of interest is also seen in the popular media. NHK (Japan's public television network, much like the BBC in the U.K.) and other hard-news programs carried the story, but the 5:30-8:30 a.m. news-ish shows (think Today or Good Morning America), which think first and foremost about ratings, won't touch it. One might say this is quite natural, as mass rape isn't a topic that goes well with breakfast. On the other hand, a few months ago there were two cases in Japan of murder/dismemberment, and the morning shows couldn't get enough of it.
Terminology is very important to this topic. The term Japanese prefer is 'ianfu,' which translates to 'comfort women.' When this story became prominent in the 1990s, Western media at first used this term, but the organizations representing the victims protested that it was a euphemism that completely distorted the reality of what happened. Today, the Western media uses the phrase 'sex slaves.' The Japanese media, however, still use 'ianfu,' or 'jugun ianfu,' which may be roughly translated as 'comfort women following the military.' It gives a stronger impression of the military's connection to what happened, while falling far short of assigning blame.
Most students don't defend Japan's wartime actions, but to my surprise, one student objected to my characterization of what happened as 'mass rape' on the grounds that some of the women were there voluntarily. Other arguments he made were the same ones that the nationalists make. Some records, they say, show that at least some of the women received payment. Some women signed contracts, meaning they gave consent. Perhaps unscrupulous middlemen misled the women by telling them they would do office work, but the military isn't responsible for what those people did. Few records exist from the time, so little can be really proved.
To the extent that anything like that happened it's regrettable, but rape is extremely common in war. Japan did nothing that other countries haven't done for centuries; they just did it in an organized way. Yes, the women who say this was done to them are Korean and Chinese, so they have a motive to lie: to help their governments who are using this issue as a political weapon against Japan.
The counter-arguments are, to me, obvious. The stigma of rape is such that elderly Asian women don't make such claims lightly. Just because Korea and China use it against Japan doesn't mean it isn't true. The preponderance of evidence does not prove, but strongly suggests, that Japan did this on a massive scale with no regard for whether the women consented. The women were confined by the army and couldn't leave. Japan was responsible for what the middlemen did, especially if no steps were taken to correct abuses. Because rape is common in war doesn't make it all right, and any countries that allowed such a thing should apologize. No one should defend it.
I did not, however, argue with him. He clearly had his mind made up and he was paying me for my time, but I found it rather revealing. When you don't want to believe or accept something, you look for reasons not to, and the nationalists provide those reasons. This guy buys into it enthusiastically, as do many Japanese. Many others don't pay much attention, feeling that since there are two sides to the story, how can we really know? Such ambiguity is comforting. The Japanese hate conflict and love ambiguity. The Japanese reluctance to believe what most historians consider very clear gives their government the ability to shove it in the closet, excise it from history books, and run out the clock until the last of the victims have died.
This is hardly surprising, of course. People in any country don't want to face the unpleasant things their country did. In America, most people ignore the clear fact that despite the President's protestations that "we do not torture," we do according to any reasonable definition of the term. In Japan, sex slaves are 'comfort women.' In America, torture is 'coercive interrogation.' People are the same, the world over. It's only the details that are different.Powered by Sidelines

Alfred Hitchcock's The 39 Steps: Comic Thriller Based on the Film
Our Price
$19 - $29*
Full Price
$38 - $58
This ingenious comic stage adaptation of Alfred Hitchcock's thriller The 39 Steps turns a cast of four into more than 140 zany characters with a mix of Hitchcockian masterpiece, juicy spy novel, and a touch of Monty Python. The winner of two Tony and Drama Desk Awards, The 39 Steps is a fast-paced and funny whodunit that's brimming with action and romance. Accused of a murder he didn't commit, Richard Hannay flees from the authorities and encounters a string of hair-raising adventures -- as well as an unlikely love connection. The four actors re-enact the entire film (including every train chase, plane crash and murder) as they gleefully portray the many spies, villains and other intriguing characters that inhabit this action-packed world.

5 Ways to Join African Ministers at Annual Meetings
Luckily, your good friends at the Africa Region are just as determined to make sure you stay in the loop. We sense your angst and we've got you covered.
With oil in Niger and Uganda, natural gas in Mozambique and Tanzania, iron ore in Guinea and Sierra Leone―African countries are increasingly finding rich new deposits of oil, gas, or minerals and just as quickly, attracting the courtship of international companies that are drawn to Africa's new bonanza in extractives wealth.
At the 2013 Global Social Venture Competition held at Berkeley's Haas School of Business, two African students, Moctar Dembele and Gérard Niyondiko, won the first prize for creating an anti-malarial soap bar. They tested and developed this product at the International Institute of Water and Environmental Engineering in Burkina Faso, a small country in West Africa.
I was glad to read the announcement made by World Bank President, Dr. Jim Kim, at the start of this year's UN General Assembly meetings, about the Bank's projected financing support through the end of 2015 to help developing countries reach the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) for women and children's health. As we move toward the culmination of the MDGs in 2015 and beyond, preventing maternal and child deaths should be seen by all government delegations and their partners in the international development community as a clear yardstick to measure their commitment for creating more just and inclusive societies.
While global economic growth has been sluggish in recent years, Africa has been growing. We've seen a resurgence of traditional sectors such as agriculture and the extractive industries as well as promising new ones such as ICT. Not surprisingly, these booming sectors need highly skilled technicians, engineers, medical workers, agricultural scientists and researchers. Yet large numbers of African graduates remain unemployed as their skills are often not in line with industry requirements.
Getting Somalia right has huge regional and global implications and attracted $2.4 billion in support at a recent development partners meeting in Brussels.
Supporting fragile and conflict-affected countries to get back on a stable, hopeful development path is a key priority for me as Vice President for the World Bank's Africa region. It is on my mind especially at the moment after being in Brussels several days ago to participate in the EU-hosted New Deal Conference on Somalia, and then visiting Bamako to pledge our support to Mali's newly formed Government. As stated by the international community and many observers, the recent election of President Ibrahim Boubacar Keita will open a new era of peace and reconstruction for Mali and we will be an active partner in this immense task.
The Brussels conference marks the anniversary of last year's political transition and culminated in the endorsement of a "Compact" against which the international community pledged $2.4 billion through 2016. The conference, hosted by the EU and the Government of Somalia led by President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, not only helped consolidate international political support for Somalia but also generated considerable momentum for the country's development plans and a path to international debt relief.
Participation in the program may start at any time during the year. Fellows receive round-trip air travel to Washington, D.C. from their university, and remuneration during their fellowship. Throughout their Fellowship, students will be able to use their access to World Bank facilities, information and staff to enhance their doctoral research. After completing six months of the fellowship, high performers will be offered an additional six months to continue their work with the Bank.
When Mukisa joined the 62nd Makerere University graduating class in January 2012, he had already made up his mind to walk a very different path from those who graduated from the same Kampala university 30 years ago. Back then, jobs were waiting for graduates, who joined formal employment that afforded them a decent living. Today, only 20% of new entrants onto the Ugandan labor market find formal jobs, leaving the rest to self-employment and other informal activities. So Mukisa started a business in plant nurseries to tap into the demand for gardening materials for the booming construction industry in the city. He has gradually acquired the technical and entrepreneur skills for his business, but wishes for better access to capital and land, and less harassment by local authorities, to expand his business.
In January, we launched a campaign to find social media interns who could boost social media engagement and connect with young audiences in Africa. More than 30,000 Twitter users across Africa and in the Diaspora participated in the campaign – whether through original tweets or retweets. The 20 or so who ended up on the shortlist all took an online test, and we selected the two who went above and beyond: Sarah Clavel and Maleele Choongo.

Stunning twin waterfalls
The falls are located in the jungle of Dong Hua Sao, which is a National Biodiversity Conservation area.
Overlooking the falls is a single resort, appropriately called the Tad Fane Resort.
The falls are quite striking, but unlike others in the area, swimming opportunities aren't available unless you take a half-day hike under the supervision of a guide -- both the top and the bottom of the falls are a long haul from the resort through the jungle.
For the casual visitor, pretty much all you can do is look at them. Half-day treks to the top of the falls can be booked here for US$5 per person (with two or more people), full-day treks including a visit to a local village and a coffee plantation cost US$10. These waterfalls are the more spectacular of the lot in this area. A restaurant serves up some decent meals from an English-language menu.
How to get there
Getting here is problematic due to erratic public transport connections. It is possible however to catch a Pak Song-bound tuk tuk or Attapeu-bound bus which passes by the turn off which is then a further walk to the top of the falls. A return chartered tuk tuk excursion out here should cost about 200,000 kip.

4 DIY Air Conditioner Maintenance Tips
Air conditioner maintenance is a topic that many homeowners don't think about until it's too late. Neglecting maintenance can lead to reduced efficiency and increased energy bills, and even a complete breakdown in the middle of summer. Here are four tips that can help keep your air conditioner running like new for years to come. Replace the Furnace Filter In traditional split-system central air conditioner, your furnace filter will clean the air that comes from both your air conditioner and your furnace. Depending on the type of furnace filter you have, you should clean it or replace it at least once a month. Clogged furnace filters reduce air conditioner efficiency by forcing your system to work harder to deliver air throughout your home. Additionally, clogged filters cause degraded indoor air quality that can lead to increased allergy flare-ups and respiratory problems. Clean the Evaporator Coils The evaporator coils are one of the most important parts of your air conditioning system, as they are directly responsible for cooling the air that is blown into your home by the air handler. If these coils become corroded or coated in dust, this will inhibit heat transfer from the air to the coils and prevent your air conditioner from producing cool air. You can clean your evaporator coils by turning off your HVAC system and removing the furnace access panel. The evaporator coils are thin blades, usually made from copper or aluminum, that are located directly above the furnace, with a drain pan beneath them. First, spray the coils with a commercial foaming coil cleaner. Allow the cleaner to sit on the coils for the amount of time specified on the can, and then use a stiff bristle brush to scrub corrosion and dirt off of the coils. Promote Good Airflow If you notice that there is less air coming from your vents than usual, there may be a problem with the outdoor condenser. Dirt buildup and weed growth around your condenser can limit the amount of air that is able to reach your HVAC system's blower motor, reducing your system's efficiency and shortening its lifespan. Trimming weeds away from your condenser and cleaning the coils regularly is the best way to prevent this problem. You can use coil cleaner and a specialized tool called a fin comb to remove dirt that is clinging to the condenser coils. Slowly run the teeth of the fin comb between the coils to dislodge dirt, taking care not to bend the aluminum fins. Unclog the Condensate Drain Line When condensation drips off of the evaporator coils into the drain pan, it is routed out of your home through the condensate drain line. The drain line is a PVC pipe that runs from the drain pan and usually emerges through your home's foundation near the outdoor condenser. As dirt, mold, and mildew build up inside the drain line, it can become clogged, and water can begin pouring over the sides of the drain pan. To unclog the drain line, find the outside end of the line and attach a wet/dry vacuum hose to the pipe. Running the vacuum for a few seconds is usually enough to force the clog out of the drain line. To prevent this problem in the future, you can pour bleach or white...read more
5 Things To Know About Zoned Heating For Your Business
When researching ways to upgrade your commercial HVAC system and have a new commercial furnace installed, you may notice that the concept of zoned heating comes up a lot. Zoned HVAC is growing in popularity and can be a very efficient way to heat and cool your commercial space, keeping your staff comfortable while also keeping your energy bills manageable. Here are five key points to keep in mind about zoned heating for your business: Zoned HVAC Gives You More Control A traditional HVAC system heats your entire facility uniformly. A zoned system, on the other hand, divides your facility or office into individual zones which can be heated independently of each other. With a zoned heating system, you (or your office manager) have total control over which parts of your business are heated to which temperature. Instead of wasting heat in a storage or stock room that employees rarely spend time in, for example, you can set that "zone" to a different temperature than your main office. Your zoned thermostat will make it easy to change the temperature by zone at any time. If you integrate your HVAC system with smart technology you can even change the temperature in specific zones from your phone or tablet when you're not at work. Zoned HVAC Saves Money on Your Electric Bill Because your heat is being focused only on the parts of your business that need them, you may find you can cut back significantly on your energy output. This can easily translate to much lower utility bills for your company, especially if you own a larger facility. While there haven't been studies yet on how much a commercial business saves when switching to zoned heating, residential savings are usually up to 30%. It's logical to assume that savings for a business would be similar. The upfront cost of a zoned system can be a bit more than a traditional HVAC system, but you will recoup this cost in lower utility bills. Zoned HVAC Keeps Your Team Comfortable Administrative staff and other team members who work on their computers all day may get cold easily in the winter and want the heat on full blast, while your maintenance, cleaning, or manufacturing staff are physically active during the workday and can easily overheat. Instead of accepting that some members of your team have to be uncomfortable at any given time, you can create unique temperature zones that meet the needs of different areas of your company. Your commercial furnace sends hot air into the ductwork system, and then easily controlled electronic dampers close or open depending on where in your facility you want the warm air sent. Zoned HVAC is Quiet Zoned heating systems also tend to be much quieter than traditional HVAC. This makes sense if you think about it: a typical HVAC system has to work extra hard to heat the entire building at once. A zoned system efficiently heats each independent zone, which requires less effort and therefore makes less noise. For employees who are easily distracted by disruptive background noises, your quiet and unobtrusive new commercial furnace with zoning system may lead to greater productivity. Zoned HVAC May Last Longer Similarly, since your zoned HVAC system doesn't need to work as hard its components won't receive quite...read more
5 Facts You Should Know About Heat Pumps
Is your old furnace or air conditioner on its last legs and in need of constant repairs or replacement? If so, consider replacing one or both systems with a heat pump. Heat pumps are affordable and efficient. To learn more about heat pumps, check out these five facts to determine if one is the right solution for your heating and cooling needs. Heat Pumps Cool and Heat Your Home Heat pumps are a great one-stop solution for heating and cooling your home. Unlike furnaces and air conditioners, however, heat pumps don't create hot or cold air. Instead, they move air. During the winter, this keeps your house warm because warm air from outside is pumped into your home while the pump expels cold air from inside your house. In the summer, the system does the opposite. It finds cold air outside and pumps it inside and eliminates hot air from inside your home. They Are an Energy-Efficient Option Heat pumps are an incredibly energy-efficient option because they use less power to operate than furnaces and central air conditioners. This results in lower monthly heating and cooling costs, which allows you to recoup your initial investment. Also, heat pumps don't release dangerous gases or chemicals into the air like other systems, so they have a smaller carbon footprint. The downside, however, is that many heat pumps can be less effective than furnaces and air conditioners, so if you live in an area with hot summers or cold winters, you may need a back-up system to stay warm or cool on extremely hot or cold days. You Can Choose a Zoned Heating/Cooling Option A common problem with many heating and cooling solutions is they don't have zones. Zones allow you to heat/cool different parts of your home while blocking other rooms that you don't normally use. Some people without zoned heating try to mimic the effects of zoned heating by closing vents and doors, but this puts strain on the system and actually creates cold and hot stops. Luckily, if you are interested in a heat pump, they do have zoned heating/cooling options. If you want zoned heating with your heat pump, it's best to consider a two-speed compressor system. Geothermal Heat Pumps Are More Efficient and Effective Geothermal heat pumps are one common option. They pull heated or cooled air from the ground. Air-source heat pumps are another option, and they pull heated or cooled air from the air. As you can imagine, it's hard to find warm air outside during the winter and cool air during the summer, which is why a geothermal heat pump is more effective than an air-source heat pump. For this reason, geothermal heat pumps are also more efficient at heating and cooling because they use less energy to get the temperature you want. So, if you choose a geothermal heat pump, youre monthly savings will be even higher. Air-Source Heat Pumps Are More Affordable You get what you pay for, and because air-source heat pumps are less effective and efficient than geothermal systems, they are also more affordable. A geothermal system can cost you between $10,000 and $30,000. Depending on the type of air-source heat pump you need, the cost is anywhere between $500 and $15,000. However, geothermal heat pumps last longer than air-source...read more
Keeping The Kitchen Cool: Methods For Improving AC Efficiency In Your Restaurant
Air conditioning is an essential part of keeping your employees comfortable and for pleasing diners when they come to dine at your establishment. However, with the cooking and the heat of summer, your system has to work harder than ever, driving up indoor kitchen temperatures despite your cooling system while simultaneously driving up your operating costs. Here are some strategies you can employ to help your air conditioning along during the hottest days of the year. Install air curtains One of the ways you can help your kitchen stay cool is by improving air flow with open doors to allow cool air from the dining room to flow into the kitchen and then out an open door or window. Propping open a door, however, often lets flies and other insects into the kitchen, which is less than desirable for making food. Air curtains are made from heavy duty fans installed near or around the frame of exterior doors that blow outwards. This moves warm kitchen air out and keeps bugs from flying in. This method is especially great for optimizing evaporative cooling methods in your restaurant. Use a dehumidifier Humidity in the kitchen makes the heat worse. Water has a high heat capacity, which means it takes more energy to reduce the temperature of air with a high moisture content. Cooking food increases humidity exponentially, so if you don't have a dehumidifier running in your restaurant, contact a HVAC company about pairing one with your air conditioner to help make a dent in the cooking and summer heat. Invest in excellent stove top venting. Cooking over an open flame can raise kitchen temperatures quickly, but one way to keep the heat contained is to have strong fume hoods that direct steam up and out, instead of allowing it to spread over the restaurant. For other heat sources, like grill tops and fryers, have ceiling fans that pull the heat up and direct it out through the HVAC system. The better your ventilation, the cooler your kitchen will be. This is especially a problem in older restaurants, so have your system checked and updated. Give the illusion of cold. While this won't directly help your AC operate better, it will help your customers believe that your restaurant is cooler than it is. Lighten up your summer menu with foods that bring "cool" to the forefront. Mint dishes, cold cheese platters, ice creams, shaved ice, and cool salad with components like cucumbers and candied lemon rind. Chilled soups like strawberry or even summer squash can also be a replacement appetizer for deep fried options like onion rings or breaded zucchini. Colder options on the menu will mean less cooking with heat, which will translate into lower kitchen temperatures. Take stock of your windows. If you windows face south or west, it's time to look into installing blinds or curtains to block out the rays of the sun. Dining windows increase temperatures for patrons, and kitchen windows increase temperatures for the cooks and wait staff. Custom window treatments can be expensive, so if you cannot afford them, opt for simple screens that can be pulled down during the sunniest part of the day. If even these are beyond your budget, think outside the box and cover windows with local art or newspaper clippings for...read more
Prepare Your Air Conditioner For Winter So It's In Good Condition Come Spring
Many homeowners don't think about their air conditioner in the winter, since they're more concerned about their heater. Taking proper care of your home's air conditioner when it's cold and snowing, however, will ensure that it's in good, working condition when temperatures start to heat up. Here's how to care for your air conditioner during the winter. Turn Your Air Conditioner Off Turning off an air conditioner might seem like an obvious first step, but not all homeowners realize that central AC units have their own power switch. Usually the switch is close to the unit, and the toggle might be in a small box. To turn your air conditioner off, simply flip this switch. Turning off your air conditioner with this switch will ensure that the unit won't start up on an unseasonably warm winter day. If your air conditioner turned on for even just one warm day, water could accumulate in its pipes. When winter temperatures dropped again, the water could freeze and split the pipes. Hose Off Your Air Conditioner If you didn't clean leaves and pollen from your air conditioner in the fall, now is the time to do so. You can easily get debris off of your unit by spraying it with a garden hose. The Family Handyman recommends aiming the hose up in order to get anything that's stuck on the underside of the air conditioner's top. As long as the weather warms up for one day, you can still hose off your air conditioner. It's alright if temperatures drop below 32°F on the next day, because the water from the hose won't get inside the unit's pipes. Even if the water freezes, it won't split any pipes. Cover Exposed Coils and Pipes Any coils and pipes that connect your air conditioner to your home should be covered. This will both protect them from rain, sleet and snow, and provide some insulation for them. You can find foam pipe covers at hardware stores for only a few dollars. These covers have a slit down one side that makes putting them on pipes easy. Partially Cover Your Air Conditioner Once all other preparations have been completed, you should cover your air conditioner itself. This protects the unit from rain, freezing rain, sleet and snow, which can rust the unit, and from hail, which can dent the unit. You should only partially cover your air conditioner, though. Completely covering it reduces the airflow around the unit, which lets the moisture in the air surrounding it increase. If too much moisture collects around the unit, mold and mildew may grow. If you cover the entire unit, you may not only need to call an AC service company for a tune-up in the spring, but you might also need to call a mold removal service. Partially covering your air conditioner will provide protection against the worst weather while allowing for enough air movement. To partially cover your unit, simply put a piece of plywood on top of it. This will keep most rain, snow and sleet from seeping down into the unit, and it will guard against hail damage. At the same time, just using one piece of plywood will also let air circulate through the unit so that moisture levels don't get too high. If you...read more
Got A Squeaky Furnace? Find Out Why And How To Fix The Problem
If your furnace begins to squeak or squeal, it is telling you that something is amiss and it needs to be repaired. If you fail to take action and correct this problem, your entire unit could stop working. However, if money is tight or if you are fairly handy, you may be hesitant to call in a furnace repair company. Luckily, a squeaky furnace is typically something you can repair yourself. Here are a few questions you may be wondering about the topic and the answers. Why is the Furnace Squeaking? Unfortunately, there are a few reasons why a furnace may be squeaking or squealing. One of the most common reasons why a furnace is squealing is because it is dirty. Luckily, this is an easy fix. Shut the furnace off and vacuum or wipe away excess dirt and dust once the unit has cooled. If this doesn't solve the problem, the problem is likely a worn belt or a furnace blower motor that is in need of oil. How Can the Furnace Blower Motor be Oiled? If your furnace is squeaking, and you have cleaned the furnace, the next thing you will want to do is oil the furnace blower motor. If you have your unit serviced by a professional on a yearly basis, this service is done for you. If you have not had this service performed, there may not be enough oil in the motor which causes the squeaking noise you hear when the unit is in use. This part should be oiled on a yearly basis, preferably before the cold season hits and your furnace is used often. Oiling a furnace blower motor is something you can do yourself by following the steps below. Turn the furnace off and allow it to completely cool before touching it. If you touch it before it has cooled, you could burn yourself. Open the furnace door to access the internal parts of this unit. You may need a screwdriver or wrench to open the door depending on what types of screws or bolts are holding the panel in place. Look at the base of the unit and locate the blower motor assembly. The assembly is on the base of the unit and you will see a ball or egg-like shape sitting on the base. This is the motor. Once you have found the motor, you will have to decide if you have enough space to reach in and oil the motor without removing it or whether you will have to remove it. The amount of space you have varies on your hand size and the make and model of furnace you have. If you don't have enough space to reach in and oil the motor, you will have to use a wrench to remove the screws that are holding the motor to the assembly base. Place a few drops of a non-detergent lubricant oil made specifically for a furnace blower motor into the oil ports. The oil ports are small holes within the motor that are clearly labeled as with the word oil on them. There may be two or three ports on your furnace, depending on the size. Only place a few drops of oil in the ports as over-oiling can lead to issues. If needed, reconnect...read more
3 Heat Pump Problems That Can Be Avoided With Preventive Maintenance
As with any utility system and appliance in your home, it's important to keep your heat pump running properly with good maintenance. Not only can maintenance prevent your heat pump from breaking down, it can improve the air quality in your home and make the heat pump run more efficiently. In fact, a severely neglected heat pump can use 10-25% more energy than one that is properly maintained, which is important considering that nearly half of the energy your home uses is attributed to heating and cooling. It's important to understand that there's a bit more to maintaining a heat pump than changing or cleaning the filters regularly. Here are three problems that can be prevented with maintenance. Clogged Vents The vents located on the casing of your outdoor unit need to be kept clear of debris, snow, and ice. In the winter, heat pumps work by pulling air in through the vents and sending that air over a compressor coils to heat it and then into your home through the ducts. It reverses in the summer by pulling air from your home, cooling it over the condenser coils, and returning the cooled air to your home while dispelling the hot air outdoors. In either case, the vents need to be clear in order for the unit to work properly. Regularly check the unit for debris, such as leaves in the fall from nearby trees. Snow and ice should be promptly removed during the winter months. The reason for this is because if air cannot move from the coil, it causes the heat pump to recycle the same air, which in turn causes the defrost cycle frequency to increase. This, in turn, causes your heat pump to use more energy. Stink Bug Infestation Pests can get inside the outdoor unit, especially stink bugs that are attracted to the heat that is radiated from the heat pump. The big problem with this is that stink bugs are attracted to other stink bugs by the scent of a chemical called aggregation pheromone, which is not the odor they release when they are squished. Before you know it, you could have a colony of stink bugs living in your heat pump. There's a mechanism called a contactor inside a heat pump. The contactor opens and closes to send voltage to various components. If a stink bug were to get trapped and squeezed when the contactor opens or closes, it could cause your home to smell like stink bugs. It could also cause the voltage to not be applied to the components, which can cause your heat pump to malfunction. Check the heat pump for stink bugs on a regular basis, especially if you start noticing stink bugs inside your home, since they can get into your home through the ducts going into your home from the heat pump. Hire a pest control company to remove any stink bugs from your heat pump. Dirty Sock Syndrome Mold and slime can accumulate on the coils and in the condensate pan. This problem can cause microbial life to live and breed inside your heat pump, which can cause your home to smell like a locker room. In fact, this is known as the dirty sock syndrome in the HVAC community. Not only will it reduce the...read more
Diseases Raw Sewage Carries And How To Clean And Disinfect Your Home After A Sewer Backup
If you experience sewage coming up from your drains or hear a gurgling noise in your plumbing, you might have a blockage somewhere in your home's plumbing. A blocked sewer line can be smelly and can also cause dangerous sewage to flow into your home, so it is important to have it repaired as soon as possible. Here are some diseases that can come from raw sewage, the health problems they cause, and how to properly clean up after a sewage back-up in your home. Giardiasis Giardia is a microscopic parasite present in sewage and causes an infection in your intestines after you have ingested it. Symptoms from giardia will begin one to two weeks after you have been exposed. Some of the symptoms include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, bloating, and can last for several weeks even after the parasites are gone from your intestines. Sometimes the symptoms can stop and return weeks later. If you get giardia, it will usually clear up on its own. If not, you can see your doctor to get an antibiotic to treat the parasite. Children are more prone to contract the parasite, then pass it on to adults. So, be especially careful if you are caring for a child who has giardia so you do not become ill from it. Giardia can also cause you to develop a long-term intolerance to lactose once you have had the infection. To clean up after sewage where Giardia may be present, always wear gloves and clean up any sewage waste with soap and water. Then, using a mixture of 3/4 cup bleach to one gallon of water, wipe down all hard surfaces and allow the cleaning solution to sit on the surface for ten minutes. Rinse the surface with clean water. If you are cleaning soiled carpet or upholstery, remove the sewage waste with a wet vacuum and clean the area with a regular detergent. Using a steam cleaner, steam clean the area at 158 degrees F for 5 minutes or 212 degrees F for 1 minute to disinfect. You can also clean and disinfect toys and bedding. Smaller items can be boiled for at least one minute. If you live at an elevation above 6500 feet, boil items for at least three minutes. Then, wash fabric items in your clothes washer with detergent and dry them on the highest heat setting for at least 30 minutes. Cryptosporidiosis Cryptosporidium is another parasite that can live in sewage waste and is a leading cause of waterborne disease in the United States. The Cryptosporidium parasite is covered with an outer shell, which makes it tolerant to chlorine and alcohol disinfection and able to survive outside your body for a long period of time. This self-protection allows the parasite to be easily spread to other people. Cryptosporidium causes intestinal discomfort, including nausea, vomiting, and fever, leading to dehydration and weight loss. If you get Cryptosporidium from a sewage leak in your home, it will normally clear up on its own, unless you have a weakened immune system from an underlying health condition. In this case you should see your doctor for treatment. Because Cryptosporidium has a protective outer shell, you need to follow special procedures to clean it up after a sewage leak. Always wear gloves and use disposable cleaning products so you can dispose of them after their use. Wash any bedding...read more
Simple Tips To Protect Your HVAC Unit During A Severe Thunderstorm
From making sure your outdoor plants are protected to insisting the kids pick up all their outdoor toys, chances are there are a number of precautionary steps you take when a nasty storm is approaching. However, while performing all the usual steps to ensure your home's exterior and interior is prepared, you might be overlooking another crucial aspect: your HVAC system. Don't allow your HVAC system to suffer needless damage. Here are a few ways protect it from the rain and wind: Protecting the Exterior HVAC Unit Making sure that your exterior HVAC unit is protected is vital and begins when you first purchase and install the system. Here are a few tips that you can utilize to ensure your HVAC unit is ready to go once the clouds have passed: While the HVAC unit is being installed, speak with the technician about the proper placement. The technician will recommend installing the unit off the ground and above the flood level. Purchase a cover for your unit. There are several options available, including canvas covers or custom-built wooden lattice models. Whatever you choose, make sure the unit is completely protected from the elements. Clean up any debris, yard waste, outdoor toys or patio furniture that is near the unit. This will ensure none of these loose items are picked up by the wind and thrown into your unit. During the storm, turn off any power to your HVAC unit. This will help ensure that any power surges don't cause some serious damage. Preparing Your Basement and Turning The Unit Back On In addition to making sure the exterior unit is well-protected, it's important to ensure that the HVAC's components that are found in the basement are also safe. Once again, in order to provide the optimal level of protection it's important to plan ahead. The best way to prevent damage caused by flood water is to have a sump pump installed in your basement. If there is any standing water in your basement, which could damage the HVAC unit, the pump automatically switches on. According to Home Advisor, the average homeowner will spend approximately $600 to $1500 dollars to have a sump pump professionally installed. Once the storm has passed and before you turn your A/C back on, examine the exterior unit for any damage. If there was any severe damage or if the HVAC unit is under water, don't turn it back on, and instead, contact a technician immediately. Not only are you at risk for a serious shock, flooded HVAC units can be contaminated with any germs that are found in the flood waters. Next, check out the furnace exhaust vent, which is located on the roof. The vent, which is typically a small metal pipe, is used to eliminate the carbon-monoxide fumes that are naturally created by the unit. If the pipe is missing or severely damaged, don't turn on the unit. Contact an HVAC technician, like those at Allied Air Conditioning & Heating Corp, to repair the pipe first. Finally, whether there was any water-related damage to the unit or not, it's best to replace the HVAC filter. If the filter becomes contaminated with flood water, it could spread germs throughout your home once the unit is turned back on. Making sure the exterior and interior components of...read more
Solving The Hot Water Problem In Tiny Houses
Tiny houses are increasing in popularity. Not only are they more affordable than the gigantic McMansions, they can easily be moved to other locations. One thing that may concern you if you are considering living in a tiny house is the availability of hot water to meet all your needs. Fortunately, there are several appliances that provide hot water without the need of having a hot water tank taking up space in a tiny house. Here are a few options to consider. Tankless water heater Tankless water heaters heat water when it is needed instead of heating a large amount of water and storing it in a tank. Tankless water heaters can use electric or gas to heat the water you need on demand. Another feature of tankless water heaters is that you can adjust the temperature setting directly on the unit. This can prevent you from getting burnt by scalding hot water, and it can also keep your electricity or gas usage to a minimum. Install a tankless water heater directly in between your shower and sink in the bathroom and another one underneath your kitchen sink. Or, you can install one unit to service both your bathroom and your kitchen. However, using one unit could pose a problem if someone attempts to use the kitchen sink while another person is taking a shower. Consult with an installation service like Smedley & Associates, Plumbing, Heating, Air Conditioning to learn about these types of possible limitations of having one unit for your tiny house. Washer/dryer combo A washer/dryer combo is an excellent way to wash and dry your clothing while taking up a small amount of space. Choose a washer/dryer combo that has the ability to heat water within the unit. That way, you won't have to worry about the capacity of your tankless water heater being affected when it's being used for showering, meal preparation, or washing dishes. Besides the small footprint of these units, the best feature is that you don't have to remove wet clothing and transfer it to a separate dryer. You simply place your clothing inside the appliance, change the settings for the particular wash and dry cycles you need, and turn it on. Return in a few hours to freshly laundered and dried clothing, depending on the type of clothing and the settings you used. When choosing a washer/dryer combo for your tiny house, you'll want to look for a unit that heats water and also does not require an air vent. Most of these units use a condensation drying process that does not require an air vent, which is a good thing in tiny houses that are already limited in wall space. Dishwasher If you prefer using a dishwasher instead of washing dishes by hand, you may be happy to learn that there are tiny dishwashers available for tiny houses. When choosing a dishwasher, look for one that has as built-in water heating system so you don't run into similar problems that were covered in the previous section with your tankless water heater. Some are designed to sit on top of counters, and some have wheels on them so they can be rolled into place to use and then rolled out of the way when not in use. Since you probably don't want to...read more

Tropical Fish Keeping - Aquarium fish care and resources (http://www.tropicalfishkeeping.com/forum.php)
- Freshwater and Tropical Fish (http://www.tropicalfishkeeping.com/freshwater-tropical-fish/)
- - 30 gallon unusual stocking (http://www.tropicalfishkeeping.com/freshwater-tropical-fish/30-gallon-unusual-stocking-107041/)
30 gallon unusual stocking
I have kept a 30 gallon community aquarium for 2 years now, consisting of pearl gouramis, cardinals, panda cories, a BN plec and some ghost shrimp. I had an unfortunate incident with my heater/electrics, and only my BN plec and my shrimp survived. I am totally gutted but my tank has been sitting almost empty for nearly a month now and I am looking for a new little project.
As much as I loved my community, I am looking to stock my tank with something a little more unusual. I initially looked at green spotted puffers as I am drawn to a fish with a lot of character, but I don't really want to go brackish as it would mean getting rid of Moose (my BN plec) and I don't want to!
My question to you guys is, is there a FW fish/invertebrate that I could comfortably keep in a 30g with my BN plec that has a similar personality to puffers? I don't mind having a low stock e.g just one or two larger fish at this point, as long as they have big personalities! I am not too interested in dwarf puffers as, although they are wonderful, I already have a 6.5g tank with one!
My other idea was to do a single species tank or maybe dwarf cichlids? Do any ideas spring to mind?
I am looking for any unusual ideas really! Lets get creative!
Clare x
A 30 gal wouldn't keep it forever but south american puffer fish live in purely freshwater if you want to do your research on them
Try looking into female betta sororities. a 30 gal could easily hold several female bettas, which are colorful, have distinct personalities, and behave in a hierarchy similar to cichlids.
you'll have to do a bit of research, but the short of it is that as long as you have at least 6, and the tank is heavily decorated to break up lines of sight, the girls get along fine with each other and other betta compatible fish (like moose and his shrimp friends)
ive managed to keep a pleco in brackish conditions. he lived for about 3 years, then i traded him in cause he got too big. (before trading I re acclimated him to freshwater) in that 30 gallon, i had a Brackish water Moray (Gymnothorax Tile), Tiger barbs, and Ram Cichlids. the Salinity was 1.010, however, if you keep your aquarium at 1.005 you shouldnt have any problems keeping most fish.
Check out the dwarf rainbowfish in the blue eye family. Small, with lots of personality:-)
I just suggested this to someone else, but the Pantodon buchholzi.. I think it's a pretty neat looking fish. You can keep your pleco with them.

Business-to-business marketers have done a better job than their business-to-consumer counterparts at integrating their message and intermixing digital and traditional advertising, according to a study by the Association of National Advertisers. B2B marketers consider their communications goals as more aligned with corporate business objectives, but they were more likely to express frustration about a lack of strategic approach across disciplines and to consider their department too isolated.
