Q. Can I really create and publish a website for free?
A. Yes, you can on a shared domain (BusinessName.WebStartToday.com). For the first year, there is absolutely no charge. Thereafter, you would need to select a billing plan – monthly, quarterly, half yearly or yearly.

Q. What methods of payment do you accept?
A. We accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover. We presently source the payment gateway from Authorize.net. Our payment gateway will preserve your payment information to charge your account for recurring payments when they become due.
Q. How do I order?
A. Create an account by entering some basic information on the Get Started page. You can then begin designing your dream website with our intuitive, user-friendly Content Management System (CMS). When you're ready to publish, register a unique domain name or use a Web Start Today-shared URL.

Q. Do you offer refunds?
A. Yes. Your satisfaction is 100% guaranteed. If you have paid for your subscription in advance, we will adjust the fee owed and refund the balance to you within 30 days of cancellation. Please be sure to read our Customer Agreement for all details and charges involved.
Q. I don't have much web experience. Can I really do it myself?
A. Absolutely. We understand that our customers aren't the typical "computer geek," so we developed a Content Management System (CMS) that is very user-friendly but still incredibly powerful. You'll grasp the basics quickly without having to pore over features the average person will never need. We also give you step-by-step instructions for adding many useful features such as tools to monitor and increase your website's effectiveness.
If you're not comfortable using the CMS just yet, or don't have the time, you can always choose to "Go Pro" and have one of our experienced webmasters build the site for you for an additional charge.
Q. How long will it take me to create my website?
A. It depends on how much time you want to spend initially and long term. Your first draft could take as little as five minutes to create – just choose your design, personalize the content, plug in your company name and logo, and you're ready to publish. Then, when you have a few minutes to spare, you can go back and edit the text and images using the Content Management System.

There's something about the chill in the air every December – it's exciting, fun filled and electrifying. Voila, the countdown to the New Year has begun! So, where's the party tonite? Is it going to be the masque ball or a quirky-themed one or is it a bonfire out in the open for the New Year celebrations? These are the questions every party animal in the town is obsessed with. And the occasional socialites are happy they get to spend some quality time in the company of their near and dear ones.
New Year celebration in Bangalore is in fact one of the most happening of the partying scenes in the country! So, what's up with you folks?! What are your plans to welcome 2016?

You must be tired of jostling your way through bad traffic jams only to reach the overcrowded famous spots in Bangalore at the eleventh hour of the party. Puducherry has all that it takes to party hard at the New Year, minus traffic nuisance – cafes & booze, sea side, music & dance and crazy crowd.

Today's Reading: Job 19:23-27
Daily Lectionary: Exodus 15:1-18; Hebrew 9:1-28
I know that my Redeemer lives, And He shall stand at last on the earth; And after my skin is destroyed, this I know, That in my flesh I shall see God, Whom I shall see for myself, And my eyes shall behold, and not another. (Job 19:21-23 NKJV)
He is risen indeed! Alleluia! In the Name + of Jesus. Amen. Job saw it. He rejoiced to see that day, the day of Jesus' resurrection. By faith Job trusted in His yet-to-arrive Redeemer, but he knew by faith that His day would come. But not just that day--he rejoiced to see the Last Day. Job trusted what would happen on that Day: he'd rise from the dead.
Job knew death and suffering. He didn't just have to deal with a cold like we all do. No, all his children died, all his wealth was taken away, and he had boils and was suffering. He had nothing--not even his health! His wife's only advice: "Curse God and die!" (Job 2:9)
He would die. He knew he would. You'll die, too. You know that, too, don't you? It could be from a storm, someone could kill you, there could be an accident, or maybe it'll be cancer, a heart attack, or just old age. But whatever the cause, the fact remains: one day you will breathe your last. What then? Are you just worm food, destined to rot away and become dust? Is that coffin in a truly your final resting place?
Far from it! What Job saw by faith distantly in the horizon, we see by faith in the rearview mirror: Jesus' death and resurrection. The Lord-who-saves isn't unacquainted with death. He died. He breathed His last. On that day, His heart ran out of beats. Then three days later, He came back to life. He was dead, and now He's not dead anymore! He will never die again.
You, too! Oh, your heart may stop beating one day, but you're in Jesus--baptized into Him. You've already died and risen! His death and resurrection are already yours, and so on the Last Day your dead body won't be dead anymore, your flesh won't be dust anymore, and you will, once again, be filled with breath and life--not just for a little bit but forever.
Job died. You will die. Jesus died and then came back to life. You will, too! Job will, too! Your Redeemer lives, and you'll live forever with Him. He is risen indeed! Alleluia! In the Name + of Jesus. Amen
I know that my Redeemer lives; What comfort this sweet sentence gives! He lives, He lives, who once was dead; He lives, my everliving head. (I Know that My Redeemer Lives, LSB 461:1)

text: For just under $75, Rev. Smith bought himself a little bit of happiness last night. The euphoric feelings lasted him well on into the wee hours of the night, and Smith awoke this morning with a smile on his face. "Happiness is the most wonderful thing in life," pontificated Smith, "and when it comes at a price like that, well, who am I to say no?" After a few more moments reflecting on his experience, Smith resumed the mindless drudgery which is his everyday life.

The Big List: Black Friday App Sale - Best Apps and Games on Sale or Free for iPhone and iPad
It's become a tradition. Overindulge in turkey and all of the wonderful sides that go with it, fall asleep watching a boring football game, then get up early the next day to buy a DVD player for $0.03 at the local big box store. Well good news, you don't have to put your life in risk of being trampled by a horde of grandmas, you can stay home, eat a leftover turkey sandwich, and save a ton of money on the App Store.
Every year we search the App Store high and low for the best deals on the apps we love. This year is no different. Here's our list, which we will update regularly all weekend.
12/2 - 8:15am -- Here we are on Cyber Monday -- the food coma has finally worn off and it's time to get back to work. While I was passed out a few new app sales showed up and I updated the list as soon as I awoke. Now, where's that coffee?
11/29 - 10:15pm -- There's an emergency here. We are out of pumpkin pie. We have plenty of whipped cream, but no pie to go with it. Too lazy to make or go buy more. Guess I'll just find another 45 apps and games on sale for you. Maybe tomorrow, I'll hunt and gather my way to the grocery store and buy another pie.
11/29 - 7:00am -- Added another 90+ sale items. Whew, getting the sweats from the lack of turkey in the last 12 hours. Need a turkey omelet to start off the day I think.
11/27 - 12:00pm -- Initial list of 45+ great apps and games on sale or free. Picking out my loosest pants for the feast tomorrow.
11/27 - 2:00pm -- First update, another 45 great sale apps and games found. Turkey is in the beer brine, the best way to cook a turkey, getting ready for the big feast tomorrow.
A quick note about these sales. Some are on sale for just one day, some are on sale all weekend. If you see something you want on sale, best to grab it. And check back regularly through the weekend for new items which will always be at the top of the list.
Hit the jump for the list of apps and games on sale!

Military members from the United States Air Force and Colombian military stand in front of an aircraft Aug. 25, 2016 at the Colombian Air Mobility Command Headquarters in Bogota, Colombia. The service members recently completed Interamerican Squadron Officer School and the Interamerican Noncommissioned Officer Academy. (Courtesy Photo)
Growing up in Puerto Rico, I never imagined I would be stationed on the beautiful island of Guam. Much less, that I would be able to complete Inter-American Squadron Officer School, a required professional military education course, in my native language of Spanish. Thanks to the Language-Enabled Airman Program and the Inter-American Air Forces Academy, I spent six weeks in Bogota, Colombia, doing just that.
Four captains, three technical sergeants and I were chosen to complete ISOS and Inter-American Non-Commissioned Officer Academy as part of an intercultural exchange between Colombia and the United States. Thirty-seven Colombian air force, army, navy, marine officers and NCO's joined us as we learned not only leadership and teamwork, but also about each other's countries and customs.
Both ISOS and INCOA courses overlapped to show the cooperation and trust between officers and enlisted members. Several team events, both mental and physical, encouraged teamwork, leadership and followership for all involved.
By being able to experience the course with our Colombian military partners, we gained insights, knowledge, and experience that we would never have gained otherwise. You can read about another country, or even see it on television, but being there and interacting is a completely different experience. We were there when the peace treaty was signed; we saw history being made and were able to understand how our new friends felt about the end of the 50-year conflict. This was the second time that U.S. members had been afforded the opportunity to attend the courses outside of the United States.
The LEAP is designed and managed by the Air Force Culture and Language Center to sustain, enhance and utilize the existing language skills and talents of Airmen. The goal of this program is to develop a core group of general-purpose force Airmen across specialties and careers possessing the capability to communicate in one or more foreign languages. To become a participant in LEAP, Airmen must already have moderate to high levels of proficiency in a foreign language specified on the Air Force Strategic Language List, as measured by Defense Language Proficiency Tests or Oral Proficiency Interviews.

Like Choppers Shred Permits
Scissors cut paper, like Choppers shred permits, like Thunder covers Muslims.
After being denied a parade permit, an organizer of the Two Million Bikers on Muslims in DC said, "What could have been a one or two hour ride through will now likely be an all day event. We will be obeying all laws. We will be stopping at all stoplights, stop signs, and yielding to all pedestrians."
To me, it sounds like an all day rain on the Muslim's 9/11parade.
"But as for you, you meant evil against me; but God meant it for good, in order to bring it about as it is this day." Genesis 50:20
God Bless them and God Bess America.

Impact of bipolar study
(investigating manic phases and current trends)
The IMPACT of Bipolar Study was conducted in seven countries to investigate the impact of bipolar I disorder. The results, reveal how bipolar I disorder affects the lives of those with the condition.4 Further analysis, newly published in the Journal of Affective Disorders, takes a closer look at the implications of suffering from mania with or without depressive symptoms and the clinical relevance of these findings for physicians.
Bipolar I disorder, a subset of bipolar disorder, is a severe chronic illness so named because sufferers experience intermittent mood episodes of two extreme poles, mania or depression, or a combination of both (mixed episode).1
Bipolar disorder can result in damaged relationships and difficulty working, or participating in regular activities.1
People with bipolar I disorder rarely experience symptom free periods. Between the severe mood episodes, people with bipolar I disorder often have residual symptoms, which contributes to impaired functioning.2
The IMPACT of Bipolar Study was conducted in seven countries to investigate the impact of bipolar I disorder. The results reveal how bipolar I disorder affects the lives of those with the condition.3

Bipolar I disorder has a dramatic effect on those living with the condition and understanding the symptoms is crucial to improved diagnosis and management. The IMPACT study found that a significant number of participants feel depressed during a period of mania, which highlights the complex nature of bipolar I disorder and the need for greater understanding of the condition.

From the moment you witness the ultra-polished intro sequence, you know you're in for a console-quality title with Implosion – Never Lose Hope.
This is just as well considering the premium price tag. While the game is free to download and try out the first six stages, you'll need to shell out a one-off fee of £8.21/$9.99 to unlock the whole thing. You get a lot of game for your money, though, as indicated by its hefty 1.1GB size.
Your battle-suit-wearing character (codename Avalon) is sent to investigate a post-apocalyptic Earth overrun by alien life forms. The hack-and-slash action is reminiscent of Devil May Cry as you tap rhythmically to rack up multi-hit combos on waves of mutants. It's pretty basic to start off with, as you hammer the strike button while performing the occasional dodge or special move – both of which need time to recharge a limited-ammo gun.
As tougher foes arrive, things soon get a lot more sophisticated and the key to success lies in tactically timing your dodges and attacks. The combat system remains well-balanced throughout, as you gradually upgrade your mech suit and equip an arsenal of weaponry and special abilities via the ARK Kernel system. While there's an RPG-like strategy in selecting equipment for your suit's limited slots, the game is still mainly about showcasing your combat skills, particularly when you are taking on the big bosses.
Limited revives are offered for each level which does help you along, although these will affect the final grade given for your performance at the end of each stage. Completing certain criteria also earns you badges to trade for upgrades and abilities. Later in the game, you can unlock the Crimson character who has her own set of equipment and skills that require a slightly different style of play for you to get the hang of.
With some stunning visuals, quality voice-acting and an excellent soundtrack, it all adds up to an extremely compelling experience that is challenging enough to keep you busy for quite some time. It is well worth a purchase.

Bill O'Reilly had a major meltdown tonight with Alan Colmes. It has to be seen to be believed but let's just say that O'Reilly was screaming at Colmes that he's a liar and Colmes respectfully but firmly shot back, "Don't you call me a liar." Later, O'Reilly seethed, "It's jack what you're saying. There's another word for it but it's an obscenity." In a subsequent segment, John Stossel told O'Reilly he had been out of line and "obnoxious."
O'Reilly started out with a vicious chip on his shoulder in his Talking Points commentary immediately preceding the discussion. There he said,
It's almost like Mr. Obama is sabotaging the country so he can reshape it. There comes a point where every nation in history gets what it deserves. Rome, Japan, Germany and Russia all were destroyed by venal leaders exploiting an apathetic population. I pray that doesn't happen to us but we the people need to wise up fast.
Colmes came on and, as usual, did an excellent job holding up his end. And O'Reilly apologized to Colmes at the end. But not before he came off looking one big bloviating, bullying blowhard. It was a worse outburst than O'Reilly's famous "Just shut up!" temper tantrum made famous in Outfoxed. And he kept simmering with rage afterward.
By the way, as Media Matters noted, Colmes had his facts correct. For some reason, O'Reilly couldn't accept them.
If you'd like to tweet your support to Colmes you can do so @AlanColmes.
Had to laugh at the way BOR quickly tried to move the goalposts on Alan. He asks for a program and so Alan names Medicare. BOR doesn't really want to accept that answer so then he starts screaming "how much?!" LOL!
Well, BOR's ratings have been down so no doubt he's probably hoping his little hissy fit will get his viewership back up. And it just might – however, he made a complete ass of himself. His anger that Obama got re-elected (despite all his attempts to stop it) is just eating him up and, thus, we get this crap about Obama wanting to destroy the country. The folks rejected have rejected BOR's version of things and his irrelevance has really pissed him off. How he can look in the mirror and feel truly good about himself and the kind of rude, unprofessional commentator he has evolved into is beyond me.
Btw, I too dislike it when BOR and others refer to him as Mr. Obama. It's PRESIDENT Obama!
You can bet Faux has their hands on some viewer polls showing a belief that their heroes are getting softer and not so confrontational. Klannity started up ratcheting up the crazy recently, O'Loofah was just late getting started.
You can bet he will get his ass rubbed and caressed by Miller tonite. And then they will discuss his No. 1 ratings to soothe his savage soul (i know, that man has no soul).
"Why are the folks at Faux Noise so afraid of the truth?"
Because that will cause Faux Spews' declining ratings to plummet EVEN FURTHER, which means a MASSIVE LOSS of advertising revenue.
Is this collective hysteria at work or something?
Of course sometimes psychoanalyzing someone can a waste of time, especially when the answer is simply that Bill is an egotistical pompous A-hole.
Then we have Billdo.
It's almost like Mr. Obama is sabotaging the country so he can reshape it. There comes a point where every nation in history gets what it deserves. Rome, Japan, Germany and Russia all were destroyed by venal leaders exploiting an apathetic population. I pray that doesn't happen to us but we the people need to wise up fast.
So there you have them. Those a-wholes at the Fox gNOpig Propaganda Network have no downside. NONE.
I am not going to repeat the filth spewed by Sean Hannity but he was attacking President Obama over the same issue, i.e. spending cuts and tax increases.
Oh, sure! Billdo apologized to Alan Colmes!
It's almost like Mr. Obama is sabotaging the country so he can reshape it.
So, Billdo the Theologian I pray that doesn't happen to us but we the people need to wise up fast.
Why does the gNOpig Propaganda Network hate democracy?
You Billdo, KKKlownnity, Levine, Limpo and other teabaggeds? What are you clowns going to do?
The only thing Bill accomplished with this latest rant is he's providing more comedy material for Jon Stewart and Steven Colbert.
I agree with Colmes that what Bill did was "just fine", since he revealed his true nature better than anybody ever could and the result is not pretty. Thanx Bill.
A disingenuous query: If medicare and social security are not "programs" what does Bill propse we call them ???
I've been in this business for 36 years so I know a little bit about it. Whenever you're on television, particularly live television… you gotta tell the folks everything, everything! So, when you were giving that speech… when you wanted to take your water, you just tell the folks that! You just say, 'Excuse me, I'm a little parched here, I gotta get a drink of water, I'll be right back.' You smile. You take your little water which should have been closer to you, by the way. And the pinhead who put it far away – you gotta slap him around a little bit. And then you take your sip, you smile again and you go, 'Aw, that was good!' And now go back!
Yeah. You really showed that pinhead Alan Colmes!
Hear me mighty roar!
*Bill O'Reilly Gives Advice On Being Rational? Really?
Posted by Priscilla · March 05, 2013 11:10 AM · 13 reactions*
I guess we all know Billy-Boy's motto: "Do as I say, not as I do."
I mean actual power, not the dumbest Americans taking him as Gospel.
As a right leaning independent voter I continue to be appauled by Bill O'Reilly (and Sean Hannity's) treatment of guests from the opposing view. I used to be a regular viewer of both programs and have ceased for the most part. When I do watch occasionally, I'm reminded why I quit watching. They do a disservice to their guests and do nothing to promote actual facts let alone the Republican agenda for people who actually know what's going on. In the long term, I think it will hurt FOX news' brand as well. Tonight's performance by Bill O'Reilly was inexcusable; he needs to go.
Seems a little tense…

For those of you that know me in real life (or IRL, if you are cool!), I tend to go in obsessive phases. Upholstery, sewing, knitting (that's been awhile), painting (walls, not the art kind)-- there's a long line of these. Something catches my interest, I learn about it, start doing it, go crazy for a few weeks or months and then move on. Sometimes I come back to these phases and re-visit the obsession. Why do I explain this to you? Because I feel a new obsession coming upon me.
FreshNestDesign, written by Erin and Deb, featured this site yesterday. (And if you don't follow Fresh Nest Design, you should. It's an interior design blog for regular people. By regular, I mean people who don't have a 5 digit budget to re-do a room-- more like $200 and a Home Depot gift card!) Anyway, Ana at Knock Off Wood knocks off furniture she sees in Pottery Barn, West Elm, Land of Nod and puts the plans on her site. Her readers are pretty talented at making the stuff and are posting their projects in her Flickr group.
Here is the Farmhouse bed she made:
She spent $120 making this bed. Ikea can't even beat that!
These bookcases Ana modeled after those cute Pottery Barn ones.
$60 for both of these.
Plus, she uses Jessica Jones Blue Leaflet as the design motif on some of her mock-ups. She obviously has a great eye!
She has dozens of plans on her site based on what she has seen in catalogs and what her readers have suggested. As you might guess, it is all very basic squared furniture- no intricate Victorian styles- but would you really want to make that anyway? And don't worry-- these are no New Yankee Workshop plans that require 8 very expensive power tools. The plans I looked at need a chop saw, a finish nailer and a power screwdriver. Cuts requiring a table saw she has done where she buys the lumber. (Though my husband would be easy to talk into a table saw!)
So, I feel a little of my junior high Wood Shop training coming back to me and I am going to make a piece of furniture this year. Maybe two. Hey, I've alway considered a sewing machine another power tool-- to me sewing and woodworking aren't that far off. Measure, cut, stitch (or nail). Except fabric stretches and wood doesn't. But that is what wood putty and caulk are for!
Though I will have to work this around my modeling career.

The Amazingly Bright LED Pendant Luminaire
Mitras® LX 6 illuminates aquariums with powerful lighting technology and unmatched efficiency. The 6000 series includes the following features:
- Ultra high light output and uniform light distribution in natural brilliant colors (CRI> 95) and situation adapted, unique color mix for strong growth of plants and corals in freshwater and saltwater.
- Equipped with carefully selected high-power LEDs from CREE®, Osram®, and SemiLEDS® with at least 150 Lumen/Watt (White LEDs).
- Integrated lighting control and independent LED channel control for mixing color spectrums.
- Ultra Compact Design: 72 high-power LEDs in only 40 mm x 180 mm x 340 mm small fixture.
- Integrated 2.4 GHz wireless module (For master-slave operation).
- Sophisticated thermal management ensures energy efficiency and long life of the LEDs (at least 70,000 operating hours).
- Replaceable LED clusters.
- Saves about 50% energy costs compared to conventional illumination technology.
- Developed and manufactured in Germany.
Full Spectrum and Integrated Lighting Control
Mitras® LX can be adjusted within a wide spectrum range (approximately 380-700 nm). Such flexibility allows you to tailor your light spectrum and output to suit the needs of your plants, fish, and coral. Simply set the light spectrum and light output and watch them thrive.
Our free professional PC operating software, GCC (GHL Control Center) allows you to conveniently operate and configure your Mitras LX. From GCC, you can select predetermined lighting templates or create your own lighting projects from scratch.
When choosing the Mitras® LX 6000 series luminaire, it is very important to consider how this light will be used; we offer different models to suit different uses. Each model is equipped with special LED combinations perfectly matched for different applications such as Freshwater, upper-,medium and deep reef.
The correct light spectrum used is equally as important as the number of lumens that can be achieved.
Mitras® LX were designed as hanging lamps for operation on open aquariums. They must not be used in a closed aquarium beneath a cover.
For built-in or enclosed aquariums we recommend our high power LED light bars Mitras Lightbar.
Unleash the true Potential of your Coral with Mitras LX Illumination
Why Mitras® LX?
Manifold Dimming Functions
Realistic lighting scenarios such as sunrise, sunset, moonlight, cloud, seasonal lighting and thunderstorm simulations are made possible with True Dimming Technology ™ by Linear Technology. With 3000 dimming levels per channel light (color), you can accomplish true-to-life simulations, including a "gliding" effect over several luminaires.
Ultra Bright
66 or optional 72 selected high-power LEDs (CREE®, OSRAM®, SemiLEDs®) in 8 or 9 colors (with HV option) with at least 150 lumens / watt (white LEDs). The LEDs are integrated in 6 replaceable LED clusters with high performance reflectors that maximize light efficiency and bring light without spreading losses in the depth.
Special LED Overheat Protection
The microprocessor-controlled automatic brightness reduction and 4 quiet temperature-controlled fans as well as the innovative heatsink design ensures safe operation and maximum luminance efficiency with high energy efficiency.
Mitras LX – Brightness in Detail
Excellent Light Performance
- 6 individually replaceable LED clusters with 66 or 72 high-power LEDs (min. 130 lumens / watt white LEDs) with an optimum color mixing and uniform illumination.
- Optional 6 replaceable hyper violet (HV) – LEDs (425 nm)
- LED life > 70,000 hours (LM80)
- Selected LEDs of Cree® and OSRAM® the latest generation, the exact placement see below.
- The LEDs are intentionally not operated with the maximum possible current, since this significantly reduces the LED life and energy efficiency. It is much more efficient to use a larger number of LEDs at reduced power.
- You can choose between 2 operation modes: High Output Mode (maximum light output) and High Efficiency Mode (good light output with high efficiency)
Homogenous Light Distribution
A homogeneous illumination is as important as a high light output. We have determined the best possible placement of the LEDs and shape of the reflectors using complex computer simulations and practical tests. In order to ensure optimum illumination, the LEDs were arranged in 2 x 3 evenly distributed clusters, the LEDs in each clusterwere placed as closely as possible.
The clusters were taken as far as possible to the edge of the light. The results are convincing:
- Ideal mixture of the individual LED colors, the light in the aquarium has no disturbing color spots
- Uniform illumination over a wide area
- Efficient heat dissipation through the heatsink
Specially coated high performance reflectors additionally ensure a homogenous and natural light impression.
- The reflection factor of 99 % carries the light also into the depths, without unnecessary divergence losses of the light to the sides.
- The light is also reflected lightly diffuse from the reflectors. Due to that a homogeneous natural lighting effect is achieved, which is very important especially if different colored LEDs are mixed.
The special protective plate:
- is made of highly translucent plastic, which is also used in solarium construction
- has a light transmittance of at least 92% over the entire visible color spectrum
Innovative Cooling System
The innovative cooling system (active, passive and controlled by a microprocessor) ensures reliable protection against overheating for maximum luminosity of LEDs and a particularly long service life (> 60,000 hours).
- Active cooling due to 4 extremely quiet and powerful temperature-controlled fans. The speed of the fans is temperature-dependend and automatically adjusted.
- Passive cooling through generously dimensioned solid aluminum heatsink with seawater resistant anodized aluminum coating in accordance with DIN 81249-1.
- Microprocessor-controlled automatic brightness reduction if temperature of the luminaire is getting too high: Is the tempeature further increasing despite maximum cooling, e.g. due to increasing ambient temperatures, the brightness is reduced slowly and continiously.
The electronics and the LEDs are thus always operated under optimal conditions.
Operation and Functions
Mitras LX has an integrated lighting control.
The adjustment of the luminaire can be made directly from the control panel or via a PC with the software GHL Control Center.
- The graphic display shows a clear overview of the current operating status.
- The control panel at the luminaire with its backlit capacitive buttons offers easy operation, such as changing settings or starting special effects.
- Mitras LX can be connected via USB to the PC. The convenient PC software GCC for operating the luminaire is free of charge.
All 9 LED–channels are separately dimmable in up to 3000 steps. In addition to the variable light spectrum a variety of functions thus can be realized:
- Sun rise and sun set ("East to West"-Simulation) over several luminaires possible
- Cloud simulation (also "gliding" over several lamps)
- Seasonal Lighting >Learn More
- Thunderstorm simulation
- Calendrical lunar-cycle simulation
- Rainy days
Several Usage Options and More Features
Thanks to the integrated control and the built-in radio module each luminaire can be used in different ways:
- As standalone
- As Master: controls one or several other Mitras luminaires
- As Slave: is controlled by a master (other Mitras or ProfiLux)
To control Mitras through a ProfiLux controller the ProfiLux Wireless Interface (PLM PWC Expansioncard) is needed (not included in shipment).
In addition Mitras LX provides:
- Fast 32 Bit ARM-microcontroller with enough power reserve for future software extensions.
- Efficient power supply with universal AC input (90 V – 264 V), protection class IP 67, with all relevant approvals (e.g. CE, TÜV, UR)
- 6 separately replaceable LED-clusters with optimized color mixing and uniform illumination
- Optional 6 replaceable hyper violet (HV) – LEDs (425 nm)
Light is Not Just Light – The Basics of Mitras® LED Illumination by GHL
Benefit from our many years of experience – since 2002, we offer dimmable led lights for application in aquatics.
Photosynthetic Efficiency with Mitras Luminaires
With the help of light energy from CO2 and water, coral symbionts and plants build carbohydrates and discard oxygen; this process is called photosynthesis. In charge of this energy production is the plant pigment, chlorophyll (a + b and carotene).
Light beams can be understood as electromagnetic waves, which are made of energy particles called photons. The energy of the so-called Photon is dependent on its wavelength (nm) and its frequency (THz). Different wavelengths of light we see as color. The visible light by humans covers only a certain segment of the electromagnetic spectrum which moves in the range of 380-750 nm.
As you can see – For the intended use, a suitable light spectrum and light intensity are crucial for the photosynthetic activity of coral symbiont and plants. The higher the photosynthesis rate is, the stronger and healthier growth could be achieved.
Lumen, LUX and PAR – Optimal Conditions with Mitras
LUX (lm / m2) is the unit of illuminance, indicating which luminous flux (lumens) falls on a defined area. The light output lumens (lm) as a measure of the brightness is normalized to the human visual sensitivity. Because humans perceive blue or red light less intense than the green light, the lumen decreases though constantly high radiation levels the more blue or red the light is.
The qualification of a luminaire only on the basis of lumens / watt (light output per electrical power) is not always appropriate as nothing is said about the photosynthetic efficiency of light
It is quite so that a luminaire with high lumens but unfavorable spectrum of photosynthesis is less beneficial than a luminaire with slightly less lumens but therefore optimum range.
More meaningful is the so-called PAR value (Photosynthetic Active Radiation), which describes the available radiation for photosynthesis.
All this offers the high-power Mitras LED illumination in perfection. Mitras Luminaires achieve above-average PAR values and thus ensures healthy growth in your aquarium.
More Facts Why Mitras Luminaires Are Your Best Choice
When comparing our Mitras Luminaires with others, you should note the following points:
- Our electric power includes also the consumption of the control electronics, not only the consumption of the LEDs.
- The light performance indicated by us includes also the performance of the LEDs which contribute less to the creation of lumen but which optimize the spectrum.
- Furthermore, we indicate the actual remaining lumen after deducting the losses through the glass and temperature increase.
- Contrary to the commonly used practice to use cheap series resistors for LED-current limiting, in our luminaires, the current of LEDs is precisely controlled by electronics. This reduces the current consumption and heat waste.
- We truly believe that we could utilize the maximum potential out of LED-technology – the best LEDs, an extremely transparent protector plate, a massive cooling and an electronic control. More is hardly possible. If you find elsewhere better performance data, then you should question this critically.
- We don't indicate any ideal theoretic values, but the performance data which can be reached in practice after deduction of all losses.
Mitras LX provides an incredibly intensive, uniform and wide coverage – the diagram above: PAR measurement in High Output Mode
Suitable Light Spectrum for Specific Applications
For an optimal lighting result, we offer four different types with different LED combinations to choose from:
- Mitras LX 6000 (Freshwater)
- Mitras LX 6100 (Marine Water Upper Reef)
- Mitras LX 6100-HV (Marine Water Upper to Medium Reef)
- Mitras LX 6200-HV (Marine Water Medium to Deep Reef)
- Mitras LX 6300 (Marine Water Medium to Deep Reef), includes ultra violet (similar to Mitras LX72xx LED layout)
They differ in terms of the average color temperature and are tailored to the specific application.
The use of several LED colors gives the opportunity to adjust the light color via GCC within far bounces. The Luminaires however, should be chosen in a way that the average light color matches as good as possible. The higher the light temperature, the more bluish the light appears.

Available LED Clusters for Replacement, Retrofitting and Upgrading
Each type of Mitras Luminaire can be equipped with any LED-cluster type (only cluster type, mixing is not possible).
Through this forward-looking technology, you can later take advantage of new technological developments.
Thus for example it is possible to change later a LX 6100 HV to a LX 6200 HV, or a LX 6000 to a LX 6100 HV.
All Mitras LX models are hardware-prepared for the different LED-cluster-types, possibly a firmware update is required. With the GHL Control Center the new cluster configuration in the light can be activated easily.
Scope of Delivery
The following items are included:
- Efficient wide range power supply IP 67 with lockable safety plug
- Power Cord
- USB Cable
Optional Hanging Kit
The Mitras® LX can be hung with a patented high quality hanging kit, that consists of ceiling mounts, hanging wire, wire holders and mounting brackets.
This optional hanging kit enables flexible height adjustment of the lights over the basin and is available online in our shop GHL Store.
Installation of Mitras LX
When assembling the Mitras LX a minimum distance from the upper edge of the aquarium of about 20 cm must be strictly adhered to.

Adam Searing Receives Consumer Health Advocate of the Year Award
In January 2012, Families USA, the national organization for health-care consumers, presented its Consumer Health Advocate of the Year Award to Adam Searing, director of the Justice Center's Health Access Coalition. Families USA honored Adam for his fierce defense of health-care consumers in North Carolina, his efforts to educate North Carolinians about federal health care reform, and his accomplishment in helping to defeat legislation that would have hurt implementation of health reform in the state.
"Adam is the kind of advocate that my staff calls the 'whole package' in terms of consumer advocacy," said Ron Pollack, executive director of Families USA. "When we work with Adam, we marvel at his innovative and creative use of media and online advocacy, his broad understanding of health care policy, and his ability to bring it all together in coalition building."

The LM5019 is a 100-V, 100-mA synchronous step-down regulator with integrated high-side
and low-side MOSFETs. The constant-on-time (COT) control scheme employed in the LM5019 requires no
loop compensation, provides excellent transient response, and enables very low step-down ratios.
The on-time varies inversely with the input voltage resulting in nearly constant frequency over the
input voltage range. A high-voltage startup regulator provides bias power for internal operation of
the IC and for integrated gate drivers.
A peak current limit circuit protects against overload conditions. The undervoltage
lockout (UVLO) circuit allows the input undervoltage threshold and hysteresis to be independently
programmed. Other protection features include thermal shutdown and bias supply undervoltage
The LM5019 device is available in WSON-8 and SO PowerPAD-8 plastic packages.

August's Retail Sales Reflect Stalling Recovery
U.S. retail sales were flat in August, signaling that nervous consumers are putting off spending amid high unemployment and an anemic recovery.
However, wholesale prices also were flat, which could ease inflation fears and give the Federal Reserve more leeway to try to spur growth by easing credit.
Retail and food-services sales were almost...

Tottenham Hotspur today made a surprise bid to move into the Olympic Stadium after the 2012 London Olympics. The bid now means that two Premier Leagues will be going head-to-head in a battle to be homed in the stadium after West Ham United also submitted a bit.
Tottenham Chairman Daniel Levy admits the club are simply covering themselves as they continue to look for a new home, saying: "It is only prudent and good management that we ensure that we investigate all possible options."
But Karren Brady, Vice-Chair at West Ham feels that the Hammers are the most sensible choice. Earlier this year she told BBC Sport: "We are a natural, logical solution. We want to create a positive, vibrant ongoing legacy.
"We've made no secret of the fact we would be the best tenant and make the best use of the site where we can not only incorporate Premier League football, we can add athletics and we're in discussions with international cricket and rugby as well."
It is the fact that Ms Brady feels that a football stadium should incorporate other sports that is causing the debate. Lord Sebastian Coe, the man behind bringing the games to London, has already insisted that the Arena will be used as the countries number one athletics venue after the games, meaning the running track will remain in place.
I can understand why Lord Coe is insistent on the Stratford stadium retaining its Olympic heritage after the games, and for this reason both West Ham and Tottenham would be foolish to move in to the stadium.
Yes the facilities would be a vast improvement for both clubs, and I'm sure they would be able to attract more fans by moving in to the new arena, but the fact is that the spectator will only lose out with a running track in place.
Away from the pitch it is hard to generate an atmosphere; you almost become detached from the game itself. The atmospheres at Upton Park and White Hart Lane are amongst the best in the country. If either club moves in to the Olympic Stadium, you can guarantee that the fans would suffer, and this impressive vocal support would be diminished.
What do you think? Would a multi-use stadium really work in the Premier League?

text: FOR the past week this has been a city surrounded by so much pain that its citizens have been unable to celebrate a continual flow of good news.After years of chronicling South Africa's exclusion from every imaginable international activity and forum, newspaper headlines over the past week have recorded the ending of the country's pariah status. "Miss World, Here I Come" screams the mass circulation Sunday Times above a color photograph of blonde Diana Tilden-Davis holding an inflatable globe in her arms above the caption: "The World in her hands..." The globe symbolizes the opening of the floodgates that have isolated South Africa from international sport, trade, culture, and art for the past 15 years. "South Africa is back in World Cricket" proclaims the headline of the Johannesburg daily newspaper, The Citizen. For most black South Africans the pain of the violence in the townships and the deprivation they live under make rejoicing about the return to the international fold remote, to say the least. "A nation poised to explode" pronounced the Weekly Mail last Friday following another in a series of massacres of black train commuters in Soweto. For many white South Africans the flood of good news is tempered by shock statistics of rampant crime and daily press reports of black leaders advocating nationalization as a means of redistributing wealth and threatening to renege on foreign loans entered into by the present government. But the resumption of normal visa procedures and the prospect of direct flights to the United States being resumed this week - to be followed soon by flights to Japan and Australia - provides the prospect of temporary relief from the crisis. Resumption of normal visa procedures for South Africans visiting countries like Canada and Australia has both a practical and a symbolic dimension. Suddenly, after years of being limited to a handful of pariah nations, South Africans can pick and choose again. Specia l packages to the Soviet Union, Eastern Europe, China, and Egypt beckon would-be travelers. The state-run tourist promotion board, Satour, has produced a brochure on how to greet Japanese in anticipation of the tens of thousands of Japanese tourists expected to visit South Africa in the next five years. Under the headline: "Apartheid Incorporated: The Movie," the Weekly Mail's culture supplement recounts the launch of the filming of "Sarafina: The Movie" based on the successful township protest musical by acclaimed South African playwright Mbongeni Ngema. The movie, which is to be produced by South Africa's Anant Singh and directed by local director Darrell Roodt, stars Whoopi Goldberg and South African actor John Kani. It will be choreographed by the man who did such Michael Jackson videos as "Thriller !" and "Beat It". The launch of the filming was billed as a private concert for African National Congress President Nelson Mandela and a group of visiting African-American celebrities - the "Democracy Now Tour including Quincy Jones. Ms. Goldberg will arrive this week to begin filming in Soweto, a township brimming with anger following the police shooting of youth activist Vuyani Mabaxa two weeks ago. Local newspapers have been carrying a full page advertisement giving details of a rock festival in Nigeria next month that will combine the best black South African musical talent on the same bill as the likes of Dionne Warwick, Nina Simone, and Ziggy Marley. Newspapers speculate about possible visits by Paul Simon, Michael Jackson, and Luciano Pavarotti.

In the typical home, the equivalent of the complete volume of air in the home passes through the ductwork several times per day. While there are companies offering services to clean these passages, it's possible to do it yourself. Rent a high power vacuum with an extra long flexible hose from a tool rental company for the most effective cleaning.
Turn off the power
Before beginning the job, turn off the power to the HVAC system to ensure your safety. This also prevents the blower from automatically turning on and blowing dust you have loosened from the duct throughout the house before you have a chance to clean it with the vacuum.
Remove register grills
Lift floor registers to remove them. Installers use screws to hold wall and ceiling vents in place. Remove the retaining screws and the vent covers to access the passages.
Vacuum away the dust
Work the hose slowly through the length of the vent to remove any accumulations. If you haven't cleaned the ducts in several years, make more than one pass through the area with the vacuum hose.
Clean the return vents
When cleaning the air delivery ducts, don't forget the return vents. Vacuum the registers, remove them, and vacuum these large ducts. Replace the filter, and turn on the power.

NORWICH A camp of a different nature gave 16 eighth and ninth graders an inside look at what the health care profession is all about.
From Aug. 16-17, students from Chenango County and nearby got the chance to have a hands-on look at all the different careers the medical profession offers.
Chenango Memorial Hospital staff members volunteered their expertise in various areas of the medical field. The two-day camp was created to give kids the chance to explore the health care field and possibly decide what they want to further their education in.
The program caters to eighth and ninth graders specifically so they can gear their high school classes toward the correct courses to get them ready for college.

- All equipment requests will be confirmed by email. Please review the information in the confirmation email carefully to verify its accuracy. Classroom Support will deliver and retrieve the equipment to the destination and at the times specified in the confirmation email message.
- AV technicians are required to wear identification and to secure the laptops and projectors to a relatively immobile object in the classroom. Please become familiar with the people who pick up and retrieve your equipment. Their badges and lanyards are issued by ARHU Academic Computing Services. Thieves have stolen equipment from occupied classrooms in the past.
- Never leave the equipment unattended. If you finish class early, you must wait with the equipment or call us at x50830 to see if we can pick up early. Leaving equipment unattended may result in the cancellation of future equipment reservations or refusal of future requests for equipment.
- Staff will wait with delivered equipment only until the scheduled start time for your class. Because staff have other delivery commitments and equipment cannot be left in the classroom if you are not there to be responsible for its safety, the equipment will not be left in the classroom for your use if you arrive late. Please arrive on time.
- Cancel your reservation if you no longer need equipment. Our resources are always stretched to their limits, so if we know you will not need the equipment we can make it available to others. Call x50830 or send email to firstname.lastname@example.com to let us know if your class is cancelled or if you will not need equipment you have reserved. Consistent failure to notify the Classroom Support Office of cancellations may result in denial of future requests for equipment
- We may interrupt your class to retrieve equipment if your lecture goes beyond the scheduled time. Equipment must be available for pickup no later than the scheduled ending time of your class. The equipment you use is often reserved for another class immediately following yours. We cannot inconvenience other professors to accommodate classes that do not end at their scheduled time.
- Please schedule your appointments as far in advance as possible. This assures you will be able to get an appointment and also receive the best equipment.
- Undergraduate students cannot request reservations. If you'll be using our equipment for student presentations, please find out exactly what your students need. Ask your students if they require special programs or plug-ins.
- Only Arts & Humanities courses will be supported. If you need to borrow a computer or projector for a conference or an event not related to a specific Arts and Humanities class, you should contact the OIT library (x54261 or http://www.oit.umd.edu/library). OIT's rental fees range from $15 to $35 per day, depending on the hardware you need.
- No equipment reservations for anything other than classroom use will be accepted during the last month of each semester. We try to be supportive of requests to support lecture series and colloquia when resources are available but must focus on support for classes during the last month of the semester when demand for equipment is consistently very high.
- Resources are typically unavailable when classes are not in session. Granting requests for equipment during finals week or between semesters will be considered an exception to policy. If you need equipment at one of these times, please submit your request as early as possible as staff schedules are determined based on the demand for equipment and support services.
- There will be a $15 delivery/retrieval charge to your department for laptop and AV equipment delivered to classrooms. This charge does not apply to delivery and retrieval of Campus-supplied carts for use in General Purpose classrooms in Francis Scott Key, Holzapfel, Woods, and Susquehanna. There is no charge for support services provided in technology-enhanced classrooms. Faculty can make arrangements to pickup and return portable equipment themselves (or identify a student to do so on their behalf) free of charge. To insure that equipment is available for as many classes as possible, if you have reserved equipment for pickup and determine that it is not needed, you must cancel the reservation with no less than 24 hours notice or there will be a charge to the unit.
Thanks for using our services!

Southwest Art Magazine Article
This week has been pretty interesting. The article in Southwest Art came out and the response has been wonderful! I've been invited to some shows that unfortunately I have had to turn down due to time constraints. The Cowgirl Up! show at the Desert Caballeros was kind enough to send an invite to participate in their show next year, but it falls right at the worst time of year for me, where I have many deadlines that all converge at once. I just need to draw a little faster, I guess. Thanks to all that have emailed to say that they have seen the article, its been great to hear from so many old friends! I plan on having the article scanned and posted to the website for people to read.

Dibutylone (bk-DMBDB,[1]) is a stimulant drug of the amphetamine, phenethylamine, and cathinone drug classes. It is structurally related to butylone

Bk-DMBDB or Dibutylone is a stimulatory drug and is used because of its psychedelic effects. This drug lies in the category of other drugs like phenethylamine, amphetamine and cathinone. Like these other drugs of its class, Dibutylone comes in powder form and has a puffy and bright white structure. It is often marketed in products like bath salts. Dibutylone smells lightly which resembles to that of citric acid. The users who have experienced this drug are quite impressed with it as it helped them in relaxing themselves and relieved them off their mental stress. The small amount of time in mental peace was regarded by them as the best time of their life.
Consulting a doctor or do- it- yourself

If your test dose is lucky and you get the necessary Dibutylone effects, then you can increase the intake dose and experience the consequences of this medication more.
However, you have to take care of your body. Though, Dibutylone is not found to cause any harm to your body but still, if you feel that after taking Dibutylone, you are suffering any sorts of side effects, then it is recommended not to take any dose after that and consult a doctor before starting the practice again. The customers have reported different Dibutylone effects. They are mentioned as follows:
Now, you can see for yourself that it is necessary to take into account all the possible effects when you intend to buy Dibutylone. The results can vary from person to person and it greatly depends on the individual's body type and the dosage he or she is taking. Therefore, it is always recommended to start off with a test dose i.e. in a small amount. Slowly build up that quantity so that you make sure the drug doesn't adversely affect you and you get tolerant towards the drug. If you want to take the drug orally so that you get high for a longer amount of time, then you have to spend some time in getting started too. You can't just start off by taking the drug orally. Rather, you have to spend some time in practicing and increasing your tolerance so that you can benefit from the effects without harming yourself. If you feel that the drug didn't affect you, then you should not just get a re-dose.
Now when you are aware of the benefits and effects of Dibutylone you can make a decision to relieve yourself of the hectic mental worries and tensions and get a moment of relief when your mind and body are both in complete peace.
