Can you drink too much water?
Mon, 18 Aug 2014 22:03:51 GMT —
he disturbing death of a teen athlete in Georgia has many parents taking notice tonight.
The high school football player died after drinking too many fluids during practice. The family of 17-year-old Zyrees Oliver say he suffered massive swelling around the brain from over-hydration.
We've heard it since we were a kid, drink at least 8 glasses of water a day. But, how much is too much? Is it possible to drink so much that you become over
hydrated? Well, the short answer, yes.
While its vital to stay hydrated when you're working out, you can actually over do it, causing life threatening damage.
"In general its recommended to not exceed a liter of fluid in an hour. And, that's about your typical Gatorade bottle that you'll have when kids are playing around or athletes are involved, that's what you would see," says Dr. Spiro Tzetzis.
Dr. Spiro Tzetis goes onto saying that those who are exercising under an hour should consume about 3 to 8 ounces of water every twenty minutes. Those who push it longer than an hour should switch to a drink with electrolytes and consume 3 to 8 ounces every twenty minutes.
And, for exercise buff, for Fatima Faisal she exercises 5 to 6 days a week.
"For me personally, I don't really drink from glasses, I drink from water bottles. So, I'll have four water bottles a day and that's fine for me," says Fatima Faisal.
What's important to remember is that works for her. So, you may need a little more or a little less. And, that's okay. But, its all in moderation.
"If you use your body's signals to keep track of when your thirsty and drinking appropriate amounts and not over doing it, the likeliness of this happening is extremely, extremely, rare," says Tzetzis.
Too much of anything is never a good idea. So, its suggested to listen to your body and know when you've had enough.

11 Must-Read Books for Beginning Traders
By Alex Brokaw Jan 14, 2013 12:00 pm
From one top trading firm's reading list for incoming trainees.
5. Secrets for Profiting in Bull and Bear Markets by Stan Weinstein
In 1988, financial expert Stan Weinstein decided to sit down and put his market-tested trading strategies on paper. What came next was a book outlining his stage analysis technique, which is widely regarded to still hold true over two decades later. Weinstein's methodology discourages traders from betting on the news, and urges them instead to trade future trends, the four market cycles that every stock will pass through. By looking for specific patterns in stock charts, investors can pinpoint the right times to buy and sell shares. This might seem obvious to some, but for many beginning traders, it can be misconstrued.
Secrets for Profiting in Bull and Bear Markets has remained such a solid fixture of the trading canon that Weinstein has often found himself pressured to write another book. To these requests he has famously replied: "I've already said everything I could have said."
6. Technical Analysis of the Financial Markets: A Comprehensive Guide to Trading Methods and Applications by John Murphy
This thick, technical tome is less a casual beach read and better suited for coffee-fueled highlighting and copious margin notes. John J. Murphy's Technical Analysis of the Financial Markets has earned its place as one of the foremost references for learning the ins and outs of complex charting techniques. It's not only been cited in Federal Reserve studies, but is also used as the primary source in the Market Technicians Association testing program. A recently updated edition is suited better to modern technologies and markets, and includes coverage of intermarket relationships, stock rotations, and candlestick charting.
7. The Art of Short Selling by Kathryn F. Staley
Goelz and his team are quick to notice a poor understanding of how to sell short among their new trainees. Kathryn F. Staley's The Art of Short Selling offers a dexterous explanation of an incredibly profitable but oft misunderstood discipline that no novice trader should be without. Staley gives insight into the key signals for when a stock's price is going to drop, where these signals are found, and how to utilize these signals to make a profit. Short selling, however, remains incredibly risky, and a few missteps can yield an irrevocable loss. Having a good foundation in the practice is a must, and Staley's guide is a fantastic resources to build one.
8. Trader Vic II: Principles of Professional Speculation by Victor Sperandeo
Victor Sperandeo, the author of what Goelz considers an overlooked book, Trader Vic II: Principles of Professional Speculation, proposes that market moves are not random, but instead are driven by fundamental economic forces, which themselves are influenced by political decision-making. Because of this, Sperandeo argues that the first step in making successful investment decisions is to think about the effects that changes in the tax law and fiscal policy will have on the market, as well as on individuals and groups. While others might focus on precise timing to master the markets, Sperandeo believes success comes in pinpointing the commonsensical effects of changes in the country's economy, which, in time, will drive the market in a predictable direction. Trader Vic's well-learned philosophy is geared to both amateurs and pros, helping all make more prudent investment decisions.
9. Elliott Wave Principle: Key to Market Behavior by A.J. Frost and Robert R. Prechter
Developed in the 1930s by Ralph Nelson Elliott, a financial accountant, the Wave Principle remained relatively obscure for decades until two analysts, Robert R. Prechter and A.J. Frost, began utilizing the method in the 1970s. When they published Elliott Wave Principle: Key to Market Behavior in 1978, the investing community quickly became aware of how fundamental mathematical patterns not only observed throughout the scientific and natural world, but also in historical human behavior, could be utilized to profit from seemingly unpredictable markets. The book has since proven to be an investing classic, and is one of the few that promises a tried and tested, reliable trading method.
10. Options as a Strategic Investment by Lawrence G. McMillan
Options as a Strategic Investment by Lawrence McMillans is great resource to help novice investors wrap their heads around the world of options investing. It covers the basics of how options work, and offers numerous strategies for a variety of different markets. The newest edition of this guide showcases a variety of options trading products now available, as well as contains a section on volatility trading. If you're thinking of using puts and calls, read this book first.
11. The Day They Shook the Plum Tree by Arthur H. Lewis
While being familiar with trading strategies and market behaviors will take you far, understanding the history and culture of Wall Street is a quintessential part of any new trader's education. The Day They Shook the Plum Tree by Arthur H. Lewis recounts the life of Hetty Green, the infamous financier nicknamed "The Witch of Wall Street," whose accumulation of wealth throughout the Gilded Age put her on par with Rockefeller, Carnegie, and Morgan. As "The First Female Tycoon," Hetty was, at the time, the richest woman in the world -- a reputation topped only by her infamous penny-pinching. Hetty was a notorious miser, making the story of how she made her money almost as interesting as the ways she managed to keep it.

Profile of David Maraniss' and 'When Pride Still Mattered,' A Biography of Vince Lombardi (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel)
David Denby's Snark (Raleigh News & Observer)
"The Internet's culture of the comment is often seen an index for our anomie and lack of empowerment, people pounding away at their keyboards late into the night, desperate to be heard and acknowledged. Why not see it instead as the people's revenge — against sloppy, boring, unaccountable critics, against the emotional economies of celebrity culture?…His reaction is like a suburbanite's to graffiti — he doesn't see in snark the rich tradition of the epigram, the bon mot, the aphorism."
Malcolm Gladwell's Outliers (Raleigh News & Observer)
"'Outliers' might be Malcolm Gladwell's best book yet — a passionate, gripping, sophisticated yet superbly readable examination of exactly what makes people successful … and why the rest of us are totally wrong about that 'what.'
So why is 'Outliers' Gladwell's biggest failure, too?
All of the above."
Richard Ford's The Lay of the Land (Raleigh News & Observer)
"Big writers, big books — who needs 'em? The question rises early and often in 'The Lay of the Land,' which finishes off Richard Ford's much-acclaimed trilogy about American mores with a couple of bangs and a lot of whimpers.
Ford's alter-ego, real estate agent Frank Bascombe, is in a mood to muse, ceaselessly limning dead white poets on mortality and the elusive good life while he examines every twitch of his navel. The result is nearly 500 pages that can make selling a tear-down sound like Transcendentalism — at least until Frank does something that really reminds you he's a jerk."
David Kamp's The United States of Arugula (Raleigh News & Observer)
"The abundance of dining choices today represents not so much the bounty of the marketplace and the triumph of good food as it does the iPoding of culture at large: a curious mixture of status anxiety and private consumption of hipster pleasures. Whether we eat out or cook up a storm at home, we face ever more inward."
A.M. Homes' This Book Will Save Your Life (Raleigh News & Observer)
"There are flashes of great writing, especially on what it feels like to be inside the body of a middle-aged guy who's starting to break down. And, as she has in the past, Homes nails the daffiness of L.A., which pervades the book like a gas, a benignly embracing atmosphere with just a hint of cannabis smoke…Unfortunately, everyone other than Richard acts as though they've been at a pot party, insistent that we hear their mind-blowing insight."
John Banville's The Sea (Raleigh News & Observer)
"One U.K. critic has billed "The Sea" one of Banville's warmest and most human books, which is akin to preferring ice water to zero degrees Kelvin. The lasting sensation is not of accommodation, but of manipulation — reminiscent of a long con in a Mamet play, but with ourselves as marks."
Clyde Edgerton's Solo: My Adventure in the Air (Raleigh News & Observer)
"A decorated Air Force pilot who flew reconnaissance in the Vietnam War, Edgerton wants to indict the military for exploiting its troops' teenage notions of glory and gallantry. But his 8-year-old's excitement at the stuff of war flight — visored helmets, cockpits that fit like favorite jeans, or afterburner takeoffs to 15,000 feet in 30 seconds — keep getting in the way. It's a half-hearted disillusionment, because he's still in love."
David Edmonds and John Eidimow's Bobby Fischer Goes to War (Raleigh News & Observer)
"Nine years old, a magnetic chess set in my pocket, masking tape holding my glasses together, and my family all wearing 'Re-elect the President' buttons … of course I loved Bobby Fischer in 1972, when he went to Iceland to take on world champion Boris Spassky of the evil Soviet chess machine.
So why did I — along with millions of other Americans — end up pulling like crazy for Spassky, whose country had held the world title for over three decades?"
Steve Almond's Candyfreak: A Review (Raleigh News & Observer)
Candy's bad for you. And, maybe, so is Steve Almond's 'Candyfreak,' a memoir of his addiction to the sweet stuff that's wrapped in a thin travelogue coating. The book tries halfheartedly to turn PayDays into Proustian madeleines, but 'Candyfreak' is really just junkie lit — highs, cravings, scoring and hoarding. The pen might be in Almond's hand, but it's candy that's doing the talking.

ATLANTA – Phil Mickelson says he is putting better than he has over the last two years, which he attributes to spending time last week in San Diego with Dave Stockton, the former PGA champion renowned for his putting tips.
Stockton worked with Annika Sorenstam in the years before she retired. He also spent some time with Michelle Wie in the weeks leading to the Solheim Cup, where the Hawaii teen made more big putts in one week than she had all year.
Stockton was at Torrey Pines last week for an LPGA event, and Mickelson hooked up with him.
"He basically reaffirmed the way I've always liked to putt, and I've gone right back to it," Mickelson said Friday after a 67 put him only five shots out of the lead at the Tour Championship. "It just feels terrific."
Mickelson said he and Stockton share the same putting principles, in which the hands are pressed forward ahead of the club and the stance is slightly wider.
"I've gone right back to it, and it just seems to feel more natural, much more comfortable," Mickelson said. "I've been rolling the ball great and making a lot of putts."
He did not say how his work with Stockton will affect Dave Pelz, who has been Mickelson's short-game coach. Lefty made no secret that putting has been holding him back over the last two years, with the occasional good tournament.
"Now I feel like I've got the right track, the right direction that I want," Mickelson said. "And I'll continue to spend more time with him as need be."
TIGER & PADDY: Tiger Woods and Padraig Harrington first played together in the third round of the 2002 U.S. Open at Bethpage Black, an experience for Harrington as he tried to deal with so many photographers moving to get into position.
Harrington is used to it now, as he should be. It seems as though they have been playing together every week.
They will be the final pairing Saturday at East Lake, the ninth time this year Woods and Harrington have been in the same group, and the fifth time since the final round of the Bridgestone Invitational.
Woods has posted the score every time except the second round at Bay Hill, when he had a 69 and Harrington shot 68.
"I think it's always best to be playing and watching the No. 1 guy," Harrington said. "It's always nice to be trying to push him. The key for me is to make sure I push Tiger to be a better play. That's got to be the key when you're out there.
"I've enjoyed most of the rounds we've played over the last couple of weeks. The way to do it is play your own game, but I've been quite comfortable out there."
The most memorable pairing came in the final round at Firestone, when Harrington had a three-shot lead and ended up four shots behind Woods, courtesy of a triple bogey on the 16th hole when they were put on the clock.
Just don't get the idea Harrington is intimidated by him.
"When you're out there on the golf course, he's just another guy," Harrington said. "You can't put him up on a pedestal like that. It wouldn't help in that sense."
CRANK UP THE NOISE: Padraig Harrington doesn't mind the large and loud crowds that come from playing with Tiger Woods. He finds that far easier than a sparse crowd, in which he can more easily notice spectators moving or talking.
And that got Harrington to thinking.
He doesn't follow basketball religiously, but he remains perplexed by the home fans scream and wave their arms when the opponent is on the free throw line.
"If everybody kept quiet, it would put the guy under a lot of pressure," Harrington said. "And if you got one guy down to make noise, it would really put him off. Some college has got to start that. Everybody goes quiet, and then … you don't even need anybody to make noise. There's a lot more pressure than when everybody is waving those and cheering."
BERMUDA GRASS: Tiger Woods grew up on poa annua greens in California, where he learned to sweep the putter up at the ball to get it rolling. It's a similar style to Mark O'Meara and Scott Simpson, good putters in their prime who grew up in California.
Bermuda used to give him fits, and even after a 68 on Friday, Woods had some issues. He was missing putts on the high side of the hole when the grain didn't take the ball. He missed his 4-foot eagle putt when he couldn't figure if the grain was more significant than the slope, and on another short miss, he said the grain grabbed his ball to the left.
That's one of the advantage of living in Florida the last 10 years, which has Bermuda greens on the golf courses. As a kid, Woods said he did not see Bermuda greens until a junior tournament in Arkansas when he was 13.
"One of the reasons why I moved to Florida—not only for taxes," he said with a big grin, "but also it was a bonus to learn how to putt on Bermuda grass, because I never did."
He has done all right on Bermuda, winning on courses like Doral, Kapalua and Disney.

Top 10 Jake Owen Songs
Jake Owen songs like 'Eight Second Ride' and 'Yee Haw' are why thousands of fans turn out to see him at his live shows, but it's hits like 'Startin' With Me' and 'Alone With You' that truly show off this Florida-born singer's range of emotions. You don't get to a fourth studio album without proving to be capable of more than one style. This Top 10 Jake Owen Songs list borrows from each of his releases to highlight his greatest recorded moments.
- 10
'Something About a Woman'From 'Startin' With Me'
Jake Owen's third single from 'Startin' With Me' was most indicative of what's to come. 'Something About a Woman' isn't his best love song, but it laid the framework for better efforts in the future. A great hook and catchy melody helped the 2007 cut reach the Top 20.
- 9
'Don't Think I Can't Love You'From 'Easy Does It'
Owen seemed more comfortable on songs from his second album, and the lead single was proof. Everything about this mid-tempo lover was a step above similar efforts on 'Startin' With Me.' That's what an artist hopes to do when he cuts album No. 2. 'Don't Think I Can't Love You' became Owen's first Top 5 hit.
- 8
'The One That Got Away'From 'Barefoot Blue Jean Night'
Summer love songs are a staple of Owen's catalog, and few are as strong as 'The One That Got Away,' a No. 1 hit from 2012. This song became the fourth Owen single to go gold for 500,000 singles sold. The melody drove a lyric that is familiar and perfectly suited for summer.
- 7
'Yee Haw'From 'Startin' With Me'
Many of Jake Owen's songs are hot, but 'Yee Haw' was one of the great "turn it up" moments of 2006. This song cooked from start to finish, leaving even the most timid country music fan ready to rumble. No, that's not necessarily a good thing, but that kind of reaction is a sign of a great country song, despite what critics may have said.

'The Journey of Your Life'From 'Barefoot Blue Jean Night'
'The Journey of Your Life' is a hidden gem on 'Barefoot Blue Jean Night.' Owen's soft and simple delivery let powerful lyrics do the heavy lifting. It's possible this is the best story from a Jake Owen album. Ronnie Bowman and Troy Jones wrote the track, a sure tearjerker for anyone who has lived and loved.

'Alone With You'From 'Barefoot Blue Jean Night'
A steamy music video certainly helped this No. 1 hit go platinum in 2012, but Owen's tormented delivery of this love-for-a-night story makes it amongst his best of all time. Lyrically, it's not as strong as the ones above it on this list, but it's packed full of emotion.
- 4
'Eight Second Ride'From 'Easy Does It'
While critics were mixed in their reviews of 'Eight Second Ride,' fans are nearly unanimous in loving this song. It's a concert highlight and a great contrast to the more subdued, introspective singles Owen has released. The singer lets his hair down and throws it around on this 2009 single. It's also important for him, because he met his wife during the video shoot.
- 3
'Days of Gold'From 'Days of Gold'
'Days of Gold' is by far Owen's loudest release to date. The song sets a blistering pace early on and leaves one gasping for air by the finish. Lyrically, it's about the golden days of one's youth -- a time when moving fast is the only thing that matters.

'Startin' With Me'From 'Startin' With Me'
'Startin' With Me' was an important answer to 'Yee Haw,' Owen's debut single in 2006. Rather than be pigeonholed as the newest party guy in country music, the singer delivered an astonishing personal story of remorse. He co-wrote this Kendall Marvel and Jimmy Ritchey and absolutely owns the 'Startin' With Me' lyrics.

'Barefoot Blue Jean Night'From 'Barefoot Blue Jean Night'
This is Owen's biggest commercial hit. 'Barefoot Blue Jean Night' went double-Platinum for two million singles sold. While the summertime story found its way to the hearts of so many country fans, the song's irresistible hook made it unforgettable. Eric Paslay led the writing team on this 2011 cut.

As most Sharepoint 2003 administrators know, Microsoft will discontinue support for their MSNBC Web Parts on February 6, 2007 (KB 929197). Since I was unable to find a suitable replacement for the MSNBC Stock Quote web part, I decided to program my own using the stock data provided by Yahoo!.
It is important to note that this web part is provided by me and I have nothing to do with Yahoo!. All of the references to Yahoo! are meant to give them all the credit for the data.
Here is a screenshot of the default web part:
In this next screenshot, you can see the settings window. Here is where your users can identify the stocks they wish to track. These stocks are a Sharepoint Personal setting, so they can be different for each user.
To install this web part:
1. Locate the directory where sharepoint portal server is installed (i.e. C:\Inetpub\wwwroot). You should see a web.config file in this location.
2. Edit the web.config file:
2.1. In the safecontrols section, add the following line (note that this is case sensitive!):
<SafeControl Assembly="StockQuotes, Version=22.214.171.124, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=24291b4f7bc336a4" Namespace="StockQuotes" TypeName="*" Safe="True" />
2.2 Change the trust level to "Full." You may skip this step if you are installing the web part to the GAC (not recommended for security reasons).
<trust level="Full" originurl="">
2.3 Save the web.config file and run iisreset at a command prompt.
2.4 In your sharepoint root directory (typically C:\Inetpub\wwwroot), create a directory called "bin" if it doesn't already exist. Copy the StockQuotes.dll file into this new directory (C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\bin). Be sure that the permissions on the bin directory and the file itself are the same as the wwwroot directory, otherwise you may see an "Access denied" error message.
Alternatively, you may install the web part to the Global Assembly Cache by dragging the StockQuotes.dll file into C:\Windows\Assembly. You must restart the server after doing this before the web part will work properly. If you do this step, you can leave the trust level at "WSS_Minimal." Please note that the best practice is to install web parts in the bin directory instead of into the GAC. Besides being better for security, it allows you to replace web parts without having to restart the whole server.
3. Import the StockQuotes.dwp file to load the web part on the page.
***Please note that the stock symbols are currently stored as a sharepoint Personal property. Some web part zones do not permit personalization (for example, the web part zones on the home page of the portal). Therefore if you load this web part in one of these restricted zones, your users will not be able to customize the settings (although you can specify the settings under Shared View). You will notice that the "Change Symbols" link is hidden when the web part is loaded in a restricted zone.
If you have a single-portal web server, you can consider editing the template file to change a web part zone so that it can be personalized by the users. To do this, edit:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\60\TEMPLATE\1033\SPS\default.aspx
Look for the web part zones at the bottom and change: AllowPersonalization="true"
The services provided by Yahoo may be changed at any time. I am not associated with Yahoo in any way and I have no idea as to the legality of your use of this code with respect to downloading data from the Yahoo.com website. Please refer to Yahoo for any applicable copyright or usage information.
My web part (StockQuotes.dll) and source code are licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution 2.5 License.

How To Get It
Download (zip file containing .DLL file and source code) - Last Updated 2/2/2008
- I have tested on a fresh install of Sharepoint Portal Server 2003 on both portal and wss pages. The web part has not been tested with Sharepoint 2007.
- Your web server must be able to contact the Yahoo Finance web servers. Although the charts are downloaded directly by the users, the content of the stock quotes is downloaded by the server before the web part is rendered. The file downloaded by the server is extremely small (it is a comma delimited file showing on the data on the screen). Currently this data is not cached due to the variety of different searches your users may perform. Therefore, this small data file is downloaded from Yahoo each time the web part is loaded by each user. If you have a high-traffic web site, you will want to consider how this will impact the performance of your server.
Assembly stockquotes.dll security permission grant set is incompatible between appdomains.
Check the trust level setting in your web.config (typically c:\inetpub\wwwroot\web.config) and be sure that it is set to Full.
Error Access is denied: 'StockQuotes'.
Check the permissions on the StockQuotes.DLL file in the bin directory (typically c:\inetpub\wwwroot\bin). To adjust these permissions, set both the bin directory and the dll file to inherit the permissions of the parent folder (on the file properties Security tab, click Advanced and click the checkbox to Allow inheritable permissions from the parent to propagate to this object...).
Web Part Error: This page has encountered a critical error. Contact your system administrator if this problem persists. (on existing Sharepoint web parts)
This can occur if the safecontrols line is not exactly correct. In my instance miscapitalizing Safe="True" as safe="True" caused the built-in web parts to malfunction (note that the "S" must be capitalized).
A Web Part or Web Form Control on this Web Part Page cannot be displayed or imported because it is not registered on this site as safe. (when adding the web part to a page or viewing a page with the web part already added)
This can be caused by 3 issues: 1. The SafeControls entry in the web.config file is missing or incorrect, 2. Sharepoint cannot find or access the StockQuotes.DLL (is it installed in the bin directory? if installing in the GAC, did you reboot?), or 3. The DWP file you are importing contains incorrect information about the Assembly and Type info for the web part.
If you use my web part, please send add a comment here.

Robiola and Crispy Speck Risotto
If you like it, save it!
Save and organize all of the stuff you love in one place.Got it!
If you like something…
Click the heart, it's called favoriting. Favorite the stuff you like.Got it!
Author Notes: Risottos, finished off with creamy cheese, the choice is endless. In this recipe I chose Robiola cheese to finish off a plain risotto and serve it with crispy Italian Speck on top. A dash of freshly ground pepper and dinner is served. Robiola is an Italian soft-ripened cheese of the Stracchino family, made with varying proportions of cow's, goat's milk and sheep milk. Speck is a juniper-flavored ham originally from the North of Italy although they also make it in Germany. I used Italian Speck. —Maria Teresa Jorge
Serves: 6
cups Carnaroli fine rice (not parboiled)
cups vegetable broth
yellow onion very finely chopped
tablespoons butter
cup dry white wine
cup Robiola Cheese (rind removed)
slices of Speck
tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
black pepper
- Peel and chop very finely the shallots.
- Cut the speck slices in medium thin strips.
- Put the vegetable broth in a pan and keep it over low heat so it is always hot.
- In a pan melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat, add the other shallot and allow to cook for 5 minutes until translucent. Add the rice and fry until well coated in oil and lightly translucent.
- Add the white wine and allow the alcohol to evaporate completely.
- Add enough broth to just cover the rice, lower the heat to medium-low and allow to cook uncovered until it's almost dry. Add another ladle of broth and stir. Allow to simmer gently until it's almost dry again. Keep repeating the process, adding less and less stock every time you add it to the risotto.
- After 15 minutes, remove from the heat, add some freshly grated black pepper, 1 tablespoon of butter, the Robiola cut up in pieces and stir vigorously with a wooden spoon to melt the cheese and obtain a very creamy consistency. Check the seasoning. Cover and let rest for 3 minutes before serving.
- Meanwhile sauté the Speck in a non stick frying pan until crispy.
- Plate the risotto, adding the crispy Speck on top. Sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper.

Eureka is known for its top rated upright vacuum cleaners but what about the Eureka Canister Vacuum? Many people are surprised to even find that Eureka makes a canister since the upright vacuum cleaner has for so long been their domain. Many people prefer a canister vacuum over an upright for a number of reasons and are happy to find out that Eureka a leading vacuum manufacturer does make a canister model.
The Eureka canister vacuum offers several advantages over its upright cousin, being easier to navigate can make the canister vacuum the vacuum of choice for small apartments or homes that have more than one floor. With an extra long hose a person can leave the canister at the bottom of the stair and thoroughly clean the stairs much better than you could with an upright vacuum. The Eureka canister vacuum is also lighter and much less awkward than an upright making it much easier to haul up and down the stairs when necessary.
The power head of a Eureka canister vacuum allows for great reach around, behind and underneath furniture making an easy job of clean hard to get at places around your home. A canister vacuum is also much better for cleaning upholstery, drapes and dusting. This is because the suction coming through the hose on a canister vacuum is much better than the suction from the hose of most uprights.
Having a Eureka canister vacuum makes short work of vacuuming out your car or motor home, where as trying to vacuum a small car with an upright vacuum can be awkward at best and a downright hassle at the most. While you will not get quite as much suction out of the power head of a canister vacuum, you will get a lot of versatility that the upright models cannot provide. Most canister vacuums also come with same type of attachments that an upright model so you will be able to use it in much the same way.
Related post: Mistakes in Carpet Cleaning you Should Avoid
Recently HEPA filters have made their way into canister vacuums as well so you will get the same filtration benefits that the upright models provide. This guarantees that 99% of the dust and other allergens that the vacuum pulls up will stay in the vacuum and will not be kicked back out into the air.
The Eureka canister vacuum line is one of the best rated canister vacuums on the market so you can rest assured that you will get an excellent vacuum at an affordable price. You can check out the best canister vacuum and reviews to choose the right one for your house

That's what I conclude as I peruse the discussion, "In one sentence, what is branding?" started 14-months ago in the Branding Professionals group of Linked-In. People have been adding to it ever since. It will not die.
So far, 333 comments have been added. Not all offer a definition. Some just scoff at the idea of defining branding in one sentence. Others take exception to someone's definition. Yes, there've been some ego clashes leading to vitriolic exchanges.
But mostly, people have thought through and crystallized their submissions. And they run all over the lot. Many view branding as tactics, but most approach branding strategically. There are thoughts about promises, personalities and products; about names, logos and taglines; about customers, employees and shareholders.
Are brands formed by companies or customers? Do they appeal emotionally or logically? Is it driven by marketing or management? You'll get all sorts of answers to those questions.
Check it out for yourself at Linked In, and maybe even add your own one-liner to the discussion. But you'll have to have a Linked In account and sign up for the Branding Professional's group.
Perhaps you'll come to agree with the scoffers – you can't define branding in one sentence. But if you can, please leave that definition as a comment below, and then contribute it to the Linked In discussion.

Caitlyn (Bruce) Jenner received the Arthur Ashe Award for Courage at the ESPYs.
The United States Supreme Court legalized same-sex marriage in all fifty states.
41% of 13-17 year olds are on Snapchat; 71% are on one of the 7 major social media platforms.
When should parents begin talking to their children about these issues? Yesterday.
As parents, we have three basic options when it comes to our children and how they will interact with culture. We can shelter them; work to preserve their innocence by cutting off harmful influences. We can hope it all balances out; trust they will assimilate enough good from the world to offset the bad. We can train them; take an active role in helping them process and interact with the world in a Christ-centered way. While all parents will sometimes shelter, sometimes hope, and sometimes train, we will all default to one of these as our main approach.
I contend that every parent's default mode should be to train their children to approach culture in a Christ-centered way. Yes we must shelter them from harmful influences. Yet the surrounding culture is too pervasive to be ignored and shelters can collapse in a moment. Yes we must trust they will turn out alright because we can't control everything. Yet the surrounding culture is eager to disciple our children if we sit back and let it.
Now is the time to train our children to engage the world in a Christ-like way. The world, now especially so, is actively seeking to disciple them into its ways. The Bible instructs us to train:
Proverbs 22:6 – Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.
Deuteronomy 6:6-7 – And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise.
1 Timothy 4:7-8 – Rather train yourself for godliness; for while bodily training is of some value, godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come.
It's amazing the time, effort, and money parents invest training their children for sports. I love sports and believe they do great good. What if we applied the same level of effort and intensity we do for a game to godliness? Here's some of what that might like look like:
We make church a priority we schedule around instead of an option we schedule over.
We are as committed to learning the Bible and growing in faith as we are to learning math and growing in grades.
We watch and listen to entertainment together to discuss their meaning and morality.
We instruct regularly on God's design for sex, marriage and gender. Josh McDowell (who has been speaking on these issues since I was a teen) recommends beginning in kindergarten.
We discuss the culture around us from same-sex marriage to Miley Cyrus to Caitlyn Jenner to Planned Parenthood so children know how to think about these issues.
We guide into the wise use of technology and install filters, set boundaries, and monitor use.
We invest family time into studying the Bible, prayer, serving, and being a witness.
We create an atmosphere of grace so children to run to us when they fail and fall and not away from us.
I won't lie, this is hard work. But so is everything else worthwhile in life. The very word "train" should evoke thoughts of an Olympic athlete conditioning every part of their body and adjusting every part of their life to win a medal. We should do the same for a much greater prize. (1 Cor. 9:24-27)
While children need some sheltering from the world, it is not enough. Shelters can shatter in one minute of internet access, five minutes with a friend, or ten minutes unsupervised. Our work crashes down and our child is unprepared. It is not enough to trust everything will work out. The culture is actively discipling them to follow it. Our passive resistance will not be enough to overcome its aggression.
Children are not tabula rasa – blank slates we can nudge into goodness. They are sinners who desire to "follow the course of this world" and "carry out the desires of the body and the mind" (Eph. 2:1-3). They need a Savior and gospel-centered, grace-saturated, goal-oriented training to live successfully in this life and to prepare for the next.

Andrew Priest, 39, who was late for a meeting, ranted at community officers and staff when nine pupils clocked his luxury sports car doing 37mph in a 30mph zone outside their school gates, it was claimed.
The telecommunications company boss angrily did a wheelspin into the school car park in his Audi A3 and told a PCSO: ''It's a ------- joke, you're PCSOs and not even proper pigs. Go and stop some more innocent people.''
As youngsters looked on in distress from just three feet away Priest also argued about the accuracy of the speed gun and gesticulated angrily at a classroom assistant yelling: ''Is this what you ------- teach kids? What sort of school is this?''
Later when told by a regular constable he would have to pay a £60 fixed penalty notice for speeding, Priest boasted: ''I earn £80,000 a year so I can afford the ticket. My ------- solicitor will get me off. I'm going to ------ have you. You're -------, I'm going to make a complaint against you.''
The children were so upset by his outburst they had to be ushered back into the classroom at Gorsey Bank primary school in Wilmslow, Cheshire. A letter was later sent out to all parents detailing what happened.
Details of the four letter rant emerged as Priest, who lives in a luxury £300,000 flat in Mobberley, Cheshire was fined £1,000 and ordered to pay with £1,000 costs after he was convicted of speeding and using threatening behaviour.
The incident occurred in November last year after the police officers were taking part in a ''school speed watch'' project with nine Year 6 pupils as part of Road Safety Week.
Any motorists stopped speeding were given the option of taking a fine, or explaining to children in a ''kids court'' at the school why they broke the speed limit.
But trouble began when Priest who was on his way to a meeting was pulled over in his silver Audi A3 magistrates in Macclesfield heard.
Teaching assistant Debra Barker told the hearing: "He was very, very angry from the minute he was pulled over. He was aggressive and was using lots of 'f' words saying. 'it's not even ------- calibrated, it's a laser'.
''I told the children the man had obviously had a bad day but they were worried and I kept trying to to reassure them. He said, 'is this what you ------- teach kids? What sort of school is this?' ... I felt very vulnerable and I felt awkward.
"He screeched into the car park. He drove his car forward, his wheels were spinning and he drove aggressively into the car park.
"He got out and walked up to the PCSO and squared up to him. I thought it was going to come to fisty cuffs and he was going to punch him."
PCSO Gareth Harding said: "He was instantly argumentative and wouldn't let me show him the speed – instead saying the machine wasn't calibrated.
''He started gesturing towards the pupils. I warned him about his language and behaviour but he jumped out of the car came straight towards me and started swearing and shouting.
''The teacher clearly looked very concerned for the children, a lot of them were starting to get quite agitated, looking like they didn't want to be there at all. A few of them were quite distressed."
Priest who was cleared of stamping on a policeman's hat during the incident denied wrongdoing and said: ''I've never heard of a kids court – it sounds ridiculous. I'm not being ostracised by children.''
But district judge Pam Baldwin told him: ''Your shouting and aggressive behaviour caused the children distress. I've no doubt these incidents are frustrating but you went beyond a legitimate expression of frustration.''

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) made remarks about the nomination of Chuck Hagel for Secretary of Defense that indicated he might be leaning toward rejecting the nomination. Graham said:
I thought his confirmation hearing was disturbing. We don't have enough information. We haven't gotten the information we requested. I don't think we should vote on him until we get all the things we've requested on all the speeches he's made. I hope the administration will reconsider his nomination. He's a good man, but these are dangerous times. What kind of signal are you sending to the Iranians when your secretary of defense is clueless about what your policy is?
Graham didn't take a side in the dispute between Senate Minority leader Mitch McConnell who favors filibustering the nomination, and Senator John McCain, who's against it. He stated:
I'm going to try to make sure that I get all the information — he made 15 speeches for money, I want to know what he said. I want to get all the information available to us so we can make an informed decision. But I can tell you this–I've never seen the world more dangerous than it is now.
