The oral antitussive dextromethorphan is a clinically available N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonist. Dextromethorphan has analgesic efficacy in the experimental formalin test, blocks the nociceptive activation of the immediate-early gene, c-fos proto-oncogene, and prevents and reverses the development of opiate analgesic tolerance in experimental models. These data suggest that dextromethorphan should be evaluated in a controlled clinical trial for analgesic efficacy in zoster-associated neuralgia.

Five years on, laws to crack down on abusers are unused
LAWS introduced five years ago to crack down on clerical sex abuse have never been used.
Legal sources said the offence of "reckless endangerment" -- which was designed to keep children from being put at risk -- was too difficult to prove.
The laws were introduced in 2006 by Justice Minister Michael McDowell. They were supposed to target clerics and others who shielded abusers and failed to act in the interests of children. But to date, the laws have not been used in a single prosecution.
Legal sources said that the burden of proof was too high -- so the offence was far too difficult to prove in a court of law.
The revelation came as the Government unveiled another layer of legislation in a bid to stem the fallout from the Cloyne Report, which will be debated in the Dail next Wednesday.
This time, the package includes a mandatory reporting requirement, which has put the State on a collision course with the church over fears that it will compromise confessions.
But Children's Minister Frances Fitzgerald insisted that there would be no exemptions from the new law, which carries a prison sentence of up to five years.
"Compliance must be ensured," said Ms Fitzgerald at the launch of the revised 'Children's First' guidelines, which are to be placed on a statutory footing with sanctions, including jail, for anyone who fails to follow the guidelines.
"No exceptions, no exemptions, " she said.
The minister said the church's concerns about breaking the confessional seal would not lead to any exemption from the new reporting regime.
"I'm not concerned, neither is the Government, about the internal laws or rules governing any body. Such a privilege can not be asserted as a defence for a statutory offence," she said.
"The only exception that is likely is where a victim says he or she does not want the offence made known or information relating to that offence to be disclosed."
However, a senior bishop last night insisted that the new laws would have little impact as abusers generally "do not come to confession".
The Bishop of Dromore, John McAreavey, said: "Anecdotal evidence shows that abusers hardly ever show remorse. Abusers do not admit their wrong. They do not come to confession."
Meanwhile, speaking at the 'Children First' launch, Assistant Garda Commissioner Derek Byrne said reckless endangerment had not been a consideration in any of the files sent to the Director of Public Prosecutions following publication in 2009 of the Ryan Report into institutional abuse.
"That (endangerment) is considered on a case-by-case basis as we submit the files to the DPP," he said, adding that even if charges of reckless endangerment were recommended by gardai, it would not necessarily result in a prosecution.
Some 13 files have been submitted to the DPP following a garda investigation into complaints of abuse and the handling of complaints by church authorities after the Ryan Report was published.
A confidential garda helpline received 181 complaints in total.
Mr Byrne stressed the centrality of the 'Children First' national guidelines to garda policy for the protection and welfare of children.
He added: "The brutal and ugly reality is that there are people in the community who seek to hurt and abuse children.
"Protecting vulnerable children must therefore be a priority for everyone and we in An Garda Siochana will continue to work with the HSE and other agencies to ensure children's safety."

Need a lawyer?
The Justia Lawyer Directory is a listing of lawyers, legal aid organizations, and pro bono legal service organizations. Whether you were injured, are accused of a crime, or are merely engaging in everyday affairs that affect your legal rights or property, an attorney can help you resolve problems or prevent new ones from arising.
Here are just a few situations where you might want to seek the advice of an attorney:
- You were injured in a car or truck accident
- You have been arrested and charged with a crime, such as DUI or shoplifting
- You are considering separating from your spouse
- You have been subjected to harassment or other discrimination at work
Use Justia to research and compare Lisle attorneys so that you can make an informed decision when you hire your counsel.
It is important to research an attorney before hiring him or her. Be sure to evaluate an attorney's experience (types of cases handled, prior results obtained, etc.). Although prior results are not indicative of the likelihood of success in your case, they can help you make an informed decision.
Also worth serious consideration is the attorney's location, particularly if you will be traveling to visit him or her for consultations.
Finally, research an attorney to see whether he or she has ever been subject to discipline. Although disciplinary actions do not necessarily impact the attorney's competence to handle your case, they may affect your decision whether to hire.

A HADFIELD teenager died after taking cocaine and drinking at a party, an inquest heard.
Claire Adelle Boak, 19, of Shawfield Road, went with friends to bars in the Glossop area on 3 June and then went on to a party.
Miss Boak, who worked as a pub barmaid, took some cocaine during the early hours of the following morning and returned home at 9.30am.
Det Con Gary Hobson, of Glossop CID, said she told her grandmother Ida, whom she lived with, that she felt a little unwell and was going to sleep for a few hours before going to work.
"Ida went to get her up at 1pm and she was face down on the bed. She tried to wake her but there was no response," DC Hobson told the Chesterfield inquest.
"She felt hot to the touch. Ida was in a panic and asked a neighbour next door to help."
They tried to revive Miss Boak before paramedics arrived and continued working on her. She was taken to Tameside Hospital where she was declared dead at 2.30pm. DC Hobson said Katie Holloran, a friend who had been with Miss Boak the previous night, said she had taken drugs at the party.
Home Office pathologist Dr Clive Bouch believed she may have died from cocaine misuse. But he added that this could not be stated beyond reasonable doubt and he gave the cause of death as "unascertained".
He added that her apparent high temperature might have been a condition known as hyperthermia, which inexplicably results in some people who have taken cocaine and alcohol and can cause blackouts and fits.
North Derbyshire coroner Tom Kelly recorded a verdict of death from unascertained causes.

Stupid Human Tricks Part 1: Measure Your Own White Blood Cell Count
Over the years, I've come up with a few little sneaky tricks that others might have missed. It's amazing what you can figure out if you keep an eye out for things that are interesting, (or weird) and then spend a moment trying to figure it out.
You can easily measure your immune system activity by looking up at a nice blue sky. Actually to be honest, any flat area of color – even a white wall – will do if you look closely enough.
The way this works is known as Blue-field entoptic phenomenon or Scheerer's phenomenon.
Basically, the human eye is badly 'designed' – the blood vessels lay across the retina rather than going behind it. This means that your eye gets to see those blood vessels – and the blood going through them.
Now those blood vessels are in a static, fixed pattern no matter where your eye looks. So like most things that don't change, your brain basically ignores them. It just edits them out.
White blood cells on the other hand? They don't absorb blue light all that well, and they're pretty rare. So they do show up. Most people don't pay attention to them, it seems. (Some can't see them at all). For some reason, I can see them. And they're most visible when you look at a bright blue smooth surface – for which the sky works brilliantly.
They look like white dots which move around randomly. Some people report them leaving little trails behind them. Either way, if you look closely, you should be able to see them – and that's where it turns into a diagnostic trick.
Once you get used to looking for them, you can figure out roughly how many of them there are. This is more of a "more than normal / less than normal" measurement rather than a hard value.
As a result, I normally get a heads up whenever I'm getting a bad cold because I keep a rough track of how many white blood cells are zipping through my eyes. If I look into the sky and see something that looks like static on a TV screen, I'm going to have a bumpy ride soon.
And that's it. Just look at the sky, and get a quick built-in health check. No mess. No fuss. Not tremendously useful, but it's always nice to get a bit of warning.

Dragon-Marked War God - Chapter 962
Unrestrained Gambling
''Humph! Gu Chen is just a new disciple but he openly killed three of our geniuses, and he killed them in a place like the Refining Tower. If he isn't punished for his wild act, he will possibly overturn the heavens in the future, and at that time, where should Desolate Palace put its face at?''
Desolate Emperor gave a cold humph. It was not easy to capture Jiang Chen back to the palace, he would not be willing to let Jiang Chen go just like that.
''Since Desolate Emperor mentioned about face, when your Third Grade Great Saint genius couldn't even defeat me, a First Grade Great Saint, and was killed by me instead, do you think you can still keep your face after this incident? Are you trying to throw away your face again when you, the majestic Desolate Emperor, personally involved yourself in the conflicts of your lower rank disciples?'' said Jiang Chen emotionlessly.
He did not have the slightest bit of concern in killing Desolate Ichiro and the other two, because it was not a very unusual thing. There had been grudges among the eight major families long time ago. No one knew how many bloody fights and battles had taken place over the years. The strife among the lower ranked disciples in particular, was usually resolved by themselves.
''Desolate Emperor, do you still want your face? Your disciples' incompetence is enough to put you to shame. Just like what Gu Chen said, how is it rational that only your people can kill them, and aren't allowed to kill your people? Is Desolate Palace trying to hoodwink everybody? Or is the life of Desolate Palace more precious than ours?'' Gu Firmament said in a cold tone.
''Who said that my geniuses are incompetent?''
Desolate Emperor sounded a little angry. Desolate Palace was the strongest palace nominally. They had always been in the leading position where no one would dare disobey them. Therefore, how was he going to accept it when someone claimed that his geniuses were incompetent?
''Very well. Since you, Desolate Emperor, still insists that your geniuses are talented, I have a solution for this matter. I, Gu Chen, am standing here today, for any of your Fourth Grade Great Saint geniuses to fight me. If I am defeated, I will let the Law Enforcement Palace take charge of what to do to me, if I win, your Desolate Palace will have to walk with their heads down whenever they see the people of Gu Palace.''
Jiang Chen caught hold of Desolate Emperor's words and retorted. He wasn't the passive type, so he took the initiative to settle today's matter. Moreover, he believed that Desolate Emperor wouldn't refuse the conditions that he had put forth, because his refusal would be equivalent to admission. The admission that the Desolate Palace's geniuses were incompetent and incapable. After all, Jiang Chen's cultivation was merely Second Grade Great Saint. There was nothing that people could say when a Second Grade Great Saint was challenging a Fourth Grade Great Saint.
Additionally, this was a good chance for Gu Palace to establish their reputation, and with the presence of Gu Firmament, Jiang Chen wanted to win back as much face and dignity as possible for Gu Palace, so that Gu Firmament would have a moment of exaltation.
Jiang Chen's reply petrified Desolate Emperor. The palace master hadn't imagined that this young man would be so presumptuous. He was rendered speechless when this young man directly challenged every Fourth Grade Great Saint geniuses of Desolate Palace.
''What do you say, Desolate Emperor? Do you dare? If you don't, we can walk away now.''
Gu Firmament's face was brimming with a sunny smile as it was rare to see Desolate Emperor's face shriveled up like today. He felt overjoyed that such a genius appeared in Gu Palace.
''Well, considering that you wanted to fight so badly, we, Desolate Palace, won't back away. Just you wait.''
Desolate Emperor's eyes looked cold. Naturally, he could not refuse as he could not afford to be embarrassed.
Almost as soon as his voice faded, a silhouette suddenly walked into the main hall of the Law Enforcement Palace. The incomer looked like a young man that was less than thirty year old, and handsome. His cultivation base had already reached the peak Fourth Grade Great Saint, only a step away from Fifth Grade Great Saint.
''Has lord summoned me for something?''
The youth went close to Desolate Emperor and gave a deep salute.
''Desolate Yitang, you will have to fight Gu Chen. But remember, this is a life-and-death battle. The revenge for Desolate Ichiro's death is on you now.''
Desolate Emperor spoke in a chilling tone. Desolate Yitang was listed in the Fourth Grade Great Saint's Hall of Fame of Desolate Palace. He was a supreme genius that was many folds stronger than Jiang Chen's opponent, Gu Lian. He only needed one more step to enter the Fifth Grade Great Saint.
Though Jiang Chen was also a rarely seen genius, Desolate Emperor wouldn't believe that he could beat Desolate Yitang. To Desolate Emperor, these two were on totally different levels.
''I understand, Lord.''
Desolate Yitang looked at Jiang Chen with a vicious expression and killing intent. Earlier, he was also present in the Refining Tower. He didn't spoke because the seniors such as Desolate Changfeng and the others were around. Now that Desolate Emperor personally asked him to deal with this Gu Chen, it indicated that Desolate Emperor highly regarded him, this had provided him a great opportunity to showcase his talent. This battle was related to his face, the face of Desolate Emperor and Desolate Palace, which gave him no room to lose this battle.
Therefore, he must kill this Gu Palace guy and Desolate Emperor would surely reward him after that. Once he got the benefits, it would be very likely that he would advance to the Fifth Grade Great Saint straightaway.
The appearance of Desolate Yitang made Gu Firmament frown.
''Don't go too far, Desolate Emperor. Desolate Yitang was a peak Fourth Grade Great Saint. You are too shabby to ask him to fight a Second Grade Great Saint junior.'' Gu Firmament couldn't help but criticize.
''Hehe! This is what Gu Chen asked for.''
Desolate Emperor smiled, completely ignoring Gu Firmament's words. In his point of view, this was a hole dug by Gu Chen himself, so he had to fill up that hole by jumping into it.
''Exactly. I'd like to fight him,'' said Jiang Chen.
He had already advanced to the Second Grade Great Saint. His current combat strength was even more powerful than before. He could give any ordinary Fourth Grade Great Saint an instant kill. Even stronger Fourth Grade Great Saint like Desolate Yitang wouldn't stand a chance, and would possibly die.
''Gu Chen, don't continue with this nonsense. If you take your words back now, I will bring you away immediately. This Desolate Yitang isn't any ordinary genius. You may not be his opponent.'' Gu Firmament's voice rang in Jiang Chen's ears.
Jiang Chen understood Gu Firmament's concern very well. Everyone knew about the huge gap between the Third Grade and the Fourth Grade Great Saint. It was akin to the disparity between the early-stage Great Saint to middle-stage Great Saint realm. Although Jiang Chen had already advanced to the Second Grade Great Saint, he was still in the early-stage of the Great Saint realm. Even if Jiang Chen had the ability to fight any Fourth Grade Great Saints, he could never handle an outstanding genius like Desolate Yitang because he was incomparable to any ordinary genius.
''Rest assured, Palace Master. I will kill him and help Gu Palace earn a reputation. On top of that, we must give a solution for today's matter, otherwise, I'm afraid that Desolate Emperor won't give up.'' Jiang Chen responded to Gu Firmament, his words were full of confidence.
''Right. Be careful then.''
Gu Firmament didn't try to convince Jiang Chen anymore, he was impressed by this junior's courage and confidence. If Gu Palace had a chance to nurture such talent, he would certainly be a great asset in the future. As such, Gu Firmament wouldn't allow Jiang Chen to be in danger. If Jiang Chen couldn't fight Desolate Yitang later, he would intervene to protect Jiang Chen.
''Gu Chen, your courage really isn't small for accepting to fight me. That surprises me a lot. In just a while, I will certainly kill you to defend the dignity of Desolate Palace, and to avenge the death of Desolate Ichiro and the other two brothers. The blood of Desolate Palace could never be shed for nothing.'' Desolate Yitang said arrogantly. To him, killing Jiang Chen was just as easy as moving his fingertips, totally effortless.
*Hua La......''
Desolate Emperor waved his hand. With a clatter, a spatial zone was created inside the main hall of the Law Enforcement Palace. It was a hundred miles big, the arena for Jiang Chen and Desolate Yitang fight.
''In that case, you two are going to fight in this battlefield. Remember, this is a life-and-death battle;your deaths here will never be questioned.''
Desolate Emperor specially reminded, which was a direct message to Gu Firmament. It only meant that if Jiang Chen died, he could do nothing but watch him die.
''Wait a minute,'' said Jiang Chen.
''What? Are you scared? Sadly, it's already too late.''
Desolate Yitang stared at Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen ignored his stare and turned to Desolate Emperor. ''Desolate Emperor, since this is a life-and-death battle, why don't we add more bets into the pot?''
''Oh? What do you want to bet on?''
Desolate Emperor was intrigued all of a sudden.
''If I bet, I will certainly make it big. If I win, the seat of palace master in the Law Enforcement Palace will be given to Gu Palace.''
Jiang Chen's voice set off thousands of waves and snatched away the calmness of the entire hall.
''What? You want the lord to abdicate the seat of the Law Enforcement Palace? You really have a big nerve!''
''What a good Gu Chen, daring to say such a word! That's a good reason! This line of words is enough for the Law Enforcement Palace to sentence you to death.''
The elders in the main hall were furious, some of them were somewhat astonished. None of them thought that Jiang Chen would put forward such a bet, but the elders of Gu Palace felt joyful in their hearts. Although the Law Enforcement Palace was an independent association, it was still comprised of all the members of the eight major palaces. Who wouldn't want their patriarch to be the palace master?
Gu Firmament didn't speak, looking at Desolate Emperor, waiting for his response. This Gu Chen had really surprised him and made him feel satisfied. He now realized that Gu Chen surely had mature thinking and opinions, and wouldn't need his guidance at all.
''Kid, you are betting on my seat. What if you lose? What do you have? Do you want to put Gu Firmament's head at stake?''
Desolate Emperor gazed at Jiang Chen.
''I, Gu Chen, never bet other people's lives. I will put 5 billion Saint Origin Restoration Pills on the line.''
Jiang Chen's Qi shook as soon as the word 5 billion was out. His Qi was getting a little intimidating. He didn't mention 5 billion high grade True Meta Stones because they probably would find out his real identity once they investigated it.

Story Stamps - Roots
The story stamp for July was Roots. It was quite a timely theme as we have been helping my Mum sort her house ready for sale. 40 years of roots here. The kit I had put together with my Amy Tangerine finds worked really well. There was a mixture of my roots and our family roots. Great inspiration.

Workspace {not even close to} Wednesday
The idea for Workspace Wednesday came from Marcy Penner. I love the idea of the glimpses into what is currently on my desk, and it gives me motivation to keep working in my creative space.
The state of my desk is about how the past few weeks have been. I have been rather sick and am still getting over it. There have been a number of projects on the go. Mostly cards. I did manage to photograph them before they headed off. Just didn't get on to tidying up though.
I can say now that at the end of the week the desk is clear, the photos are organised and ready to blog and the projects keep on coming.

1. Look for spiderwebs
You can't have Halloween without spiders so why not photograph some spiderwebs? The best ones can be found first thing in the morning - I'm not a morning person so I had to make do with what I could find. The original photo was actually one spiderweb that wasn't in the best location and part of it was gone already. I decided to take it a step further: making a copy of the image, then flipping one and merging the two together in Photoshop. It made for an extra creepy photo!
Decorations aren't just for partying, they can be great creepy subjects! Grab a few of your favorite things and find locations like tall grass or fallen leaves, then shoot from all different angles. Shooting in wide open apertures will give them an even creepier vibe. If you happen to see elements of the prop that are distracting (like metal screws or fabrication lines) you can clone those out to make it look a little more realistic in editing.
3. Play on phobias
There's a reason why certain things make great Halloween decorations - snakes, spiders, clowns and other phobias are great ideas for creepy photos. A little editing helped make this rubber snake coiled up on dead leaves even more dastardly.
4. Hit up old shops, barns, etc.
When shooting these photos I walked around my dad's shop area - which has all kinds of great textures. Urban decay like abandoned buildings make great locations too.
5. Jagged lines
Lines are such strong elements of design that even their shape effects a photo. What do jagged lines convey feelings of? The creeps. Heebie jeebies. Or something's just not right. So look for jagged lines (or make your own) and try shooting them.
6. Crop in all the wrong places
When shooting people it's a no-no to cut off someone's hand or head, etc. Why? Because it gives the viewer this feeling of being disconnected or well, just disturbed. But that's all out the window for creepy photos so go crop crazy.
7. Shoot weird looking mushrooms
Or other odd plants. It's best to shoot these really up close in macro - if they look really odd and you can't tell what it is even better.
8. Edit in B&W
Of course this doesn't work for everything - the picture of Bucky (the skeleton) on the red trailer just had to be in color. Even so, B&W is classic for that spooky vibe and definitely rocks certain shots.
Have fun and spooky shooting!

My first impression was that the V2's highs were sweet, extended, not at all peaky, with tons of detail—a delight. At the same time, I thought the bass was a little light—tight and detailed, but lacking the utmost in power. The latter impression lasted until the first encounter with music that had deep bass. Then I appreciated that it was in no way lacking in bass extension and power, just that there was none of the artificial bass emphasis common with numerous headphones designed to complement wimpy smartphones. So: accurate, extended highs and accurate, extended bass—ideal, assuming the midrange was decent. Let's find out. Hint: It was.
While I was getting acquainted with the sound of the V2s, I downloaded an album of Haydn symphonies, numbers 31, 70, and 101 played by the Scottish Chamber Orchestra under their new-ish conductor Robin Ticciati on a 96kHz/24-bit FLAC recording by Linn. It was a splendid, rorty performance using valveless horns, which had the distinctive sound of hunting horns. The first time I cued it up on the HE1000 V2s, I had only listened to the album on speakers. I was pleasantly surprised to hear additional detail, solid harmonic accuracy, and excellent microdynamics compared to the speaker reproduction. I also heard a strange, extremely low-level non-musical noise, however, that I had not heard through the speakers—a kind of hissing that varied in frequency with the musical material being played.
Turning to a very familiar recording, The Tallis Scholars' Allegri: Miserere; Palestrina: Missa Papae Marcelli, a Gimmell 96/24 FLAC download, I cued up the "Miserere" track. I was surprised to hear a well-developed soundstage, not something you normally expect from headphones. The performing forces consist of a small a cappella main choral group in the front of the soundstage, with a small solo group a fair distance behind the main group. A tenor soloist in the main group has a narrator function. To my surprise, through the V2s, the impression of separation for the distant solo group sounded more clearly defined than through my speakers; the reverberant echo that contributes to the sense of separation was exquisitely reproduced, with no distortion or smear. The sopranos in the solo group soar to a high C that must have been unusual to hear when the piece was performed in the Sistine Chapel at the Vatican. Through the V2s, the highs were quite detailed and remarkably free of distortion. I'm tempted to invoke the ancient reviewer's cliché and tell you the V2s stripped away veils from the reproduced sound, but I'll spare you that agony. Suffice it to say the album sounded extremely detailed and pure. That was not only true of just the solo group, but also of the main group, which spread across the soundstage almost as spaciously as with speakers. And the freedom from distortion was just as evident from the main group of singers. Utterly gorgeous.
The recording I've unquestionably listened to more than all others is Jordi Savall and his band's realization of "Folia Rodrigo Martinez" on an AIFF rip of the Alia Vox CD La Folia 1490-1701. This information-rich recording begins with three strikes on cascabels (sleigh bells) which sound slightly different through speakers, but through the V2s, sounded more similar. The high frequencies on the V2s were extended but not at all peaky, with more information than my speakers provide. Near the beginning of the piece, the baroque guitar plays a melody in the left channel that is echoed by a harp in the right channel. Quite a few components make the guitar and harp sound indistinguishable, but the difference was clear through the V2s; the harmonic structure of the harp and the guitar were quite distinctive. There is a lot of activity going on continuously with percussion instruments, which sometime blur into a background mush, but the V2s made it easy to follow the percussion at all times, even in soft passages. Savall's viola da gamba sounded more refined than it usually does, as if he had switched to a better quality instrument. This piece has bass that extends quite deep, but the V2s didn't descend as deeply as my subwoofer. The most remarkable characteristic of the bass is how the V2s reproduce the spaciousness of the recording; the bass sounded like it was in a much larger and more clearly defined space than I've heard it through subwoofer-augmented speakers. Bass detail is another area where the V2s excelled.
Another recently acquired album titled If You Love for Beauty Vol. II, by Sasha Cooke with Yehuda Gilad leading the Colburn Orchestra on Chausson's "Poeme de l'Amour et de la Mer" for mezzo-soprano and orchestra [Yarlung Records, DSD256/DSF] illustrated how gorgeous high-resolution digital recordings can sound. Copious natural detail made the recording scarily realistic. Distortion was undetectable. The V2s made the performance quite moving, with wide frequency extension and vivid instrumental richness. Strings sounded quite lush.
OK, let's switch to another amplifier, the one built into the solid-state exaSound e22 Mark 2 DAC. Since If You Love for Beauty was already cued up, I started there. Reproduction was clean but not as harmonically rich. It sounded more like an amplifier than a singer and orchestra—a very clean amplifier, with more bass than the Linear Tube Audio amplifier. The exaSound had lots of power, seemingly more than the Linear Tube Audio amplifier.
Switching to "Folia Rodrigo Martinez" I heard lots of detail, though slightly less harmonic richness. However, the detail didn't quite congeal into a believable performance. Still, I had no trouble distinguishing between the guitar and harp, although they didn't sound quite as much like a guitar and harp. Bass extended deeper, with lots more impact—I suppose I expected that.
Onward to "Miserere." The sound was ultra-clean, distortion-free, and nearly as spatially enveloping as the Linear Tube Audio amplifier. It sounded more like a hi-fi—admittedly, a very good hi-fi.
So how about the Haydn symphonies? The exaSound had excellent microdynamic resolution. I heard none of the strange low-level noise I heard with the Linear Tube Audio amplifier. And I heard none of the noise when I played any other recording through the Linear Tube Audio amplifier. My best guess, and it's only a guess, is that the noise was at such a low level only the most resolving amplifier made it obvious.
I had planned to try the V2s with the Hafler HA75, which sounds very nice, but as mentioned the Hafler had barely enough power to drive the V2s to the moderate listening levels I prefer.

Q&A with Brad Rosser, drummer with The Brave Youngster
The story of Van Halen using their contract to demand bowls of M&Ms for their dressing rooms, with all the brown candies removed, is legendary (and is featured in a recent airing of This American Life). Far from being the whim of pampered rock stars, this contract wording was a smart industry approach for a band with complicated safety and equipment needs. Band members knew their contract had actually been read if the M&Ms were right.
A good contract can be vital to a working musician's or performer's professional viability. In the music business, talented people often are piecing together short-term engagements at different venues, relying on compliance with their contract to have the right staff and equipment available, and to get paid.
I got interested in entertainment law through my brother, one of those rare professionals: a musician who actually makes a living at it. He has opened for Bon Jovi, Run DMC, and later this summer, Rick Springfield, and has a distinguished history as a drummer with Fenster, Introspect and currently The Brave Youngster, and as a drum instructor. He acts as manager for his current band, and it falls on him to negotiate contracts and enforce compliance. I asked him a few questions that show how important a good contract is to his industry.
Jeanblanc & Rosser, LLP: What's the usual process for developing a relationship with a new venue and getting a contract for your band into the management's hands?
Brad Rosser:Usually the process begins with me talking to another band, to know what another band is doing. We all know each other and we all talk. If a new venue opens up, one band tries it out, and tells the other bands about it. Then I'll ask them to pass my information on to the booking manager, or I'll call the booking manager myself. Then the booking manager and I talk dates and money.
The most important thing in that contract is absolutely the cancellation clause. The easy part is how much money and when. The cancellation clause is what really matters. The reason we really need to have that is, if we take a gig on July 4, that's a big date—if someone cancels at the last minute, not only do we lose the money we would have gotten paid from that gig, we can't book another show on that date without notice.
Holidays are important for cancellation clauses. The one time we actually went to court was someone who canceled on Halloween. The case went to mandatory mediation and it literally took five minutes—most of that was the mediator reading the contract—before the guy agreed to pay.
It was actually comical—I took one of my guys with me and had them cue up the theme song to "Night Court" on his cell phone while we're sitting there in the court lobby. We knew we were going to win. We had a good contract.
J&R: Is it usually smooth sailing, or are there common negotiations or contract problems that arise?
BR: My experience is smooth sailing. It's good to have a contract, and anyone who balks at signing a contract should be considered questionable. Really, the whole point of a contract is to spell out what we're going to do and what the venue is going to do, so a manager shouldn't be scared of that.
J&R: What makes a good contract for a performer, in your opinion?
BR: It needs to be brief. Bar managers need to understand it; it needs to be clear, concise. The contract protects the band more than the venue, just because we're going to set it up that way, but a good contract is clear.
For our contract, Jeanblanc & Rosser looked at possible scenarios that could be problematic for us, like insurance and in-house production, and addressed those. For example, some venues have in-house production, so they have their own PA and lights, so we put that in if they are responsible for production, or if we are responsible.
We included other requirements, like that the venue be sufficiently powered, safe. The contract gives the venue permission to use the band name and pictures, but they would have to get permission to use music or video clips.
J&R: What tips would you give a new musician about contracts?
BR: Number one, always have a contract. A lot of times you're dealing with people who are a little bit shady. And don't be afraid to enforce that contract. Some people will take advantage of new bands because they think they need the gigs, but my feeling is, if a venue is going to treat bands that way, we can go somewhere else.
My other piece of advice is that you have to be dogged about it. Half the time, the booking manager will say when you call, "Oh, I don't have my calendar on me." That's what some other guys I know just don't get. They'll call a venue and say, "He said he's all booked up." He's not all booked up. It's not complicated, it's pretty much straight-up sales; you have to prove you have a track record and you're going to make him some money.
Also, I advise that bands have an attorney. Just having someone be able to call and say, "I'm the band's attorney," gets a lot done.
Just like any other professional, artists should expect R-E-S-P-E-C-T (sorry, couldn't resist) from venues, vendors, studios, and other partners in their efforts, and a good contract can be a start to defining those relationships.

Q&A: Edinburgh's giant pandas
Since they took up residence in Edinburgh Zoo, they have become two of the city's best-known characters.
Yang Guang and Tian Tian, the giant pandas, arrived in a 10-year loan deal from the Ya'an reserve in Chengdu, China, on 4 December 2011. The pair, who are are both aged 10, have since attracted visitors from around the world.
Tian Tian conceived for the first time in 2013, but the pregnancy failed. Now the zoo says it believes she is pregnant again and may give birth at the end of the month.
When did Tian Tian become pregnant?
Tian Tian was artificially inseminated on 13 April after she failed to mate naturally.
Experts began to analyse hormone and protein levels on a daily basis in Tian Tian's urine. In July, Edinburgh Zoo announced she had conceived although was not technically pregnant.
On 12 August, Iain Valentine, director of Giant Pandas for the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland, said the latest scientific data did suggest Tian Tian was pregnant and may give birth at the end of the month. Two Chinese experts with experience of dealing with panda births are due to arrive in Scotland later this month to support the Edinburgh Zoo team monitoring Tian Tian.
But Mr Valentine cautioned that the late loss of a cub remains a possibility.
Has Tian Tian been pregnant before?
Tian Tian has given birth to cubs before and Yang Guang has also fathered cubs. But this took place in China before their arrival at Edinburgh Zoo.
They were unsuccessful during 2012's mating season and the following April Tian Tian was artificially inseminated. The zoo says it had been able to confirm she became pregnant in 2013 although believes it she reabsorbed the foetus late term. This is a common occurrence in giant pandas in both zoos and the wild.
How long does a panda pregnancy last?
Pandas normally mate in April or May and the female gives birth in August or September. Both Yang Guang and Tian Tian were August cubs.
Unusually, though, pandas sometimes have what's called delayed implantation which means the length of time from mating to giving birth can be extended because the female panda's body may respond to adverse conditions.
Could there be twins?
Pandas quite often have twins, although, in the wild, the mother would decide quite early which cub was stronger and the other wouldn't survive.
In captivity, every effort is made to rear both cubs. And Tian Tian has had twins in the past.
Would the panda cub or cubs remain in Edinburgh?
Edinburgh Zoo has a financial arrangement with the Chinese authorities.
The zoo will keep Yang Guang and Tian Tian for 10 years at an annual fee of £600,000.
As part of the deal, any cubs will remain in Edinburgh for two years before being sent back to China. At that age, cubs would be independent of their mothers in the wild.
When will the public be able to see any new panda cub or cubs?
It could be several months before Tian Tian and a new panda cub or cubs will be seen by the public after a birth.
Visitors to Edinburgh Zoo need to obtain a free timed ticket to see the panda enclosure. Because of the possible pregnancy, viewing of the indoor dens of the enclosure were closed to the public at the start of August this year. The zoo said this was because it was a "critical time" in Tian Tian's potential pregnancy and she was showing sensitivity to noise.
The outdoor viewing areas remained open but zoo officials say the entire panda enclosure will be closed to visitors from 16 August until further notice. It says visitors with pre-booked tickets for dates after 15 August will be contacted by email with details on how to re-arrange their bookings.
Edinburgh Zoo has indicated the enclosure could reopen several weeks after a birth, with only Yang Guang on view in the first instance.
Why do giant pandas seem to find it so difficult to breed?
The number of giant pandas is very small, perhaps 1,600 in the wild and another 300 in zoos.
One important reason for their decline has been destruction of the bamboo forests where they live in south-west China.
The Chinese recognise that pandas need to be able to move around freely and so are trying to link up existing areas which are presently broken up by roads or railways.
It is also true that female pandas will only mate during a 36-hour window each year.
In the wild, they might have several partners in that period. In captivity, zoos are using artificial insemination to replicate those breeding opportunities.
Some ecologists have argued that pandas are already doomed to extinction because their limited diet makes it impossible for them to adapt.
Optimists say they've already survived for eight million years - considerably longer than humans.
Why did Yang Guang and Tian Tian come to Edinburgh?
There was considerable diplomatic effort on the part of the Scottish and UK governments, with the zoo also making its own case.
Edinburgh Zoo argued that they had suitable staff and could call on outside experts who would work together on panda breeding and conservation.
Since the agreement was reached, staff from Edinburgh have been working closely with Chinese panda specialists.
Scottish keepers have been to the panda breeding centre near Chengdu in Sichuan Province and panda conservationists from China have come to Edinburgh.
Aside from conservation, the giant pandas represent a potential financial lifeline for Edinburgh Zoo which had been suffering falling visitor numbers before Tian Tian and Yang Guang arrived.
In the first year of the Edinburgh pandas, the zoo enjoyed a 50% increase in its visitor numbers, more than enough to cover the cost of payments to China. A report last year from Scottish Enterprise estimated they will generate almost £28m for the Edinburgh economy during their 10-year stay, with an additional £19m being spent in the wider Scottish economy.

Bench to Bedside: From the Laboratory to the Pharmacy
A Phase I/II Trial of Cetuximab in Combination with Interleukin-12 Administered to Patients with Unresectable Primary or Recurrent Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck
Hypothesis: More than 90 percent of squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) that originate in the oropharynx overexpress the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR, or HER1). Cetuximab is an anti-HER1 monoclonal antibody that binds to HER1-overexpressing tumor cells and has activity as a single agent when administered to patients with HER1-positive SCC of the oropharynx. We hypothesize that IL-12 administration will enhance the antitumor activity of cetuximab by activating innate immune cells that recognize antibody-coated tumor cells.
Rationale: This novel protocol exploits the fact that innate immune cells bear specialized receptors for the Fc region on monoclonal antibodies. Evidence suggests that Fc-receptor-dependent mechanisms contribute substantially to the activity of monoclonal antibodies directed against tumor antigens, and that co-administration of immune stimulatory cytokines might enhance their effects. This is particularly true for natural killer (NK) cells.
Once activated, NK cells release cytokines that have antitumor activity and help coordinate innate and specific immune responses. They also release factors that recruit macrophages and T cells to sites of inflammation.
NK cells express an Fc receptor called FcγRIIIa, which enables them to interact with antibody-coated tumor cells and to mediate antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and the secretion of IFN-γ and TNF-α. The presence of IL-12 markedly enhances this antitumor activity. This protocol evaluates whether administration of IL-12 will enhance the antitumor activity of cetuximab in patients with inoperable HER1-overexpressing SCCs of the head and neck.
• The phase I portion of the study will identify a tolerable dose of IL-12 plus cetuximab;
• The phase II study will determine the response rate to the two agents;
• Additional correlative studies will provide information on the antitumor mechanism of IL-12 and establish biomarkers for predicting patient responsiveness.
Along with characterizing the immunologic effects of IL-12 in combination with cetuximab, this study will provide a better understanding of the NK-cell response to antibody-coated tumor cells and of how to improve the regimen's effectiveness. The information gained from this study should also apply to other monoclonal antibodies currently in use or under development.

Wyoming Seminary Team Wins Wilkes University Engineering Olympics 2015
The team from Wyoming Seminary in Kingston, Pa., beat out 10 other high school teams from throughout northeast and eastern Pennsylvania to take top honors in Wilkes University's annual Engineering Olympics. The 2015 event was held on March 27 in the Arnaud C. Marts Sports and Conference Center The winning team's members each will receive a $1,000 scholarship annually for four years if they attend Wilkes – a grand total of up to $40,000 in scholarship money.
Second place honors went to the team from West Scranton High School with third place going to the students from Meyers High School in the Wilkes-Barre Area School District.
The Engineering Olympics aims to excite and inform high schools students about the engineering profession and give them an opportunity to apply their knowledge in real-world scenarios. Schools compete in five hands-on activities in environmental, electrical and mechanical engineering fields.
The event is sponsored by the University's engineering departments, Student Government and the Wilkes chapter of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers.
In addition to the winning schools, other participants in the Engineering Olympics came from high schools in Lehighton, Pittston Area, Dunmore Area, Greater Nanticoke Area, Area, Hamburg Area, Forest City Regional, Solanco and Hazleton Area school districts.
The winning team from Wyoming Seminary, pictured below, includes, from left to right, Satyasaran Sreeharikesan, Hunter Hughes, Stefan Olsen, Joseph Gaudino, Jarod Godlewski, Kevin Platt, Lina Tori Jan, James Lyle, Yueqi Guan, Lisa, Kuai and teacher Anderson Calderon.

In this episode, we recap the Symposium recently put on by the South Region of the National Association of Personal Financial Advisors (NAPFA) in Atlanta, GA, titled The Softer Side of Financial Planning. This event is special to us, since at least one of us has been involved in the planning or running of this event in each of the past 6 years.
This year, Ben actually served as the emcee of the Symposium, while Roger participated at a simulcast site in Houston. On the podcast, we touch on the general content of each presentation, along with our impressions and general takeaways. Roger also provides some social commentary on the traffic situation in Houston. Also, the word millennial comes up a lot. Don't be frightened.
Symposium Speakers:
Christy Eckoff (Director of Gift Planning, Greater Atlanta Community Foundation) : "Generational Lens"
Lisa Kirchenbauer (Omega Wealth Management): "Essential Skills of an Exceptional Planner"
Nicole Pinkham (SummaSource at Auburn University at Montgomery): "Communicating to Increase Client Engagement"
Dr. Daniel Crosby (Nocturne Capital): "Improving Client Outcomes Through Behavioral Finance"
Panel (Lisa, Nichole and Daniel): "Client Management and Communication"
Neat Links
Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®)
Kinder Institute of Life Planning
You can buy Dr. Crosby's book, The Laws of Wealth, at Amazon.com
Houston's I-10 freeway has a total of 26 lanes. It's thought to be the largest freeway in the world. No offense, but that sounds terrible, and I'm originally from Los Angeles!
Color Coordination for Men, so that Roger never again makes the cringeworthy mistake of mixing black, brown and blue all at the same time.

See the snow
How it's glistening
To a voice I am listening
It tells me I must go
On down the rabbit hole
Like Alice in her dreamy wonderland
So I go
Out the doorway
And the cold feels like Norway
There's no time to dress
And I look like a mess
Walkin' in my winter underpants
I feel so cold, just roamin' in the gloamin'
A searchin' for that silly rabbit's den
A girl said "Aren't you freezin'?"
I said "No Ma'am"
The whiskey has just started settin' in
It may seem
I'm a liar
I've just dreamed this entire
I wake up in a trance
And watch the snowflakes dance
Been walkin' in my winter underpants
This poem was inspired by, and should be sung to the tune of Winter Wonderland.
My favorite version is by Michael Buble
My name is Lee Dunn, and I blog at AREMYFEETOFFTHEGROUND
I've been retired for a year, and am trying to pursue a lifelong desire to write. Lots of time to do it now, and better than thinking of that rocking chair.

Hey, I am the owner of www.5starhiphop.com and I post new songs everyday, usually A LOT of them. Over 20 every day. And users who stay may sometimes stay for HOURS clicking my links and listening to music. I'm sure to linkbucks this looks like click fraud. But it's not, users literally stay on my site for hours going down the list clicking a new link. because it could possibly be 100 or more clicks on DIFFERENT links but from the same ip. My questions are:
1. Do ip's get ignored by linkbucks after a certain amount of clicks from the same ip? Eventhough they are clicking on different links?
2. If so,How many links can they click on before being ignored?
If the answer is yes to the first questions, that is not fair, but I guess I understand it. You all should implement a system where people who own websites get to bypass this since they are posting multiple links everyday that might get clicked over a hundred times from the same ip. If not that, at least raise the number, because it seems like it is very low.
It is different for forums users because they are getting a lot of unique clicks for one thing. But we are getting unique hits AND consistent hits from the same ip.
I hope you all understand what I mean and will take my suggestion into consideration
sorry for the (somewhat) long post...

Cyclists will take to the roads and trails of Derbyshire this weekend to call for a new cycleway to be created through the Derwent Valley.
Campaigners want to see dedicated cycle routes through the UNESCO World Heritage Site, in line with Derbyshire County Council's stated ambition to make this the 'most connected cycling county in England'.
At present, the National Cycle Network has good connections to Derby at the southern end, and to the High Peak Trail and Matlock at the northern end, but there is nothing which passes through the 15 miles of the site itself.
Matlock's penny farthing racing champion Richard Thoday will be joining the campaign ride on Saturday, May 18, and said: "I have lived in the area almost all of my live and travel up and down the Derwent Valley every day to get to work, to do shopping, to visit family or just for leisure.
"Cycling is a great way to travel but the A6 is an intimidating and difficult place to ride. For many people who are not confident cyclists it is just too scary to contemplate riding in this environment and so feel resigned to using the car for all journeys."
He added: "Having a safe, traffic free route through the Derwent Valley would be such a wonderful thing.
"It would allow people to walk and ride in a quiet, safe and sociable environment helping them to become fitter, healthier and happier."
The Derwent Valley Trust is pushing the government and county council to establish a high quality, traffic-free cycleway connecting the area's tourist attractions and beauty spots.
It cites economic impact analysis suggesting there would be a near five-fold return on any investment in the project, through visitor opportunities, less congested roads, and health benefits.
Richard said: "Looking at the success of traffic free commuting routes in Europe, this project would clearly be of massive benefit to local people - I can't understand why it does not already exist."
Experienced riders are invited to join the ride along the A6, starting at the University of Derby at 10.15am.
A more gentle, family-friendly ride will start from the Old Station Close car park in Rowsley at 11.30am.
Both groups will meet at an event in Hall Leys Park, Matlock, from 11.30am to 2pm, featuring a hog roast, live music, and fun activities for all ages and a petition which will be delivered to Derbyshire County Council.
The cycle rides are free to join, but donations of £5 per person are welcomed to cover the event's costs.

From Australia to Kreuth it is surely a really long way. But it did´t scare Bonnie Simon and Tracey Mallia. Bonnie came to Europe couple of months ago and she staid at Sovereign Quarter Horses (in England), while Tracey traveled from her home town (Nar Nar Goon), in Australia. The trip took 24 hours but it was worth it. After the flight, Tracey took a train to come the show. We had the pleasure to talk to Tracey and Bonnie to find out more about their european experience.
Press Office: Is it your first time in Europe?
Tracey: I´ve been in the UK before, which is where I met David and Sarah ( Deptford), but this is the first time here in Germany.
Po: Are you taking a little holiday or did you just come for the show?
Tracey: No, I just came for the show to watch David and Sarah. I arrived on Wednesday, I am going back to David and Sarah for couple of days and than I´ll fly back home.
Po: You came to watch David and Sarah, but why did you come to this show and not to an another one, for example in the UK?
Tracey: This is one of the biggest show around, so this is the one to come for. To win a title here is really prestigious. I like the way the show is run, it is run really professionally. We obviously have big shows in Australia, but this runs really smoothly with the amount of horses you´ve got. I am really impressed, I think this is one the biggest shows I´ve been to.
Po: Is there a lot of difference with the shows in Australia?
Bonnie: It´s the style.
Tracey: Yeah, it´s the style. At big shows we may have 120 horses, we don´t have these many. The quality of the horses is probably the same, we have a lot of good quality horses. it is just a different country, of course. I wanted to come to see a different country, the way people show here, what they wear, what saddles are they using.
Po: What did you like the most about this show?
Tracey: I liked everything!
Bonnie: It is all great! I liked the quality, I enjoyed what people wore. We are really impressed.
Tracey: It didn't matter what outfit you had, if your run was the right one, you were winning. The judging was really fair. There were a lot people wearing a plain shirt and still did really well. The judging was based on the ability of the rider and of the horse.
Bonnie: Yes, I agree.
Po: Would you come back again?
Tracey: Yes, definitely. If David brings an another team of horses, I´ll be here!
Po: Are you also passionate about Ranch Riding?
Tracey: No, I do more Western Pleasure, Trail, Hunter. I have two really nice horses, american bred. I run a business there, so it is hard to get to every show you wanna get to. But we go to some big shows. We´ve got some good quality shows and some good quality horses.
Po: Did you come together?
Bonnie: I staid at David and Sarah since the middle of june and originally I should have staid around one month. And than they asked me to stay also for the Euros, that´s why I am still here. So I was already at David and Sarah when Tracey came alone. I know her cause she has a business and I went to her for some clinics and shows… This is how we know each other. Now I´ll go back to David and Sarah in the truck and Tracey will fly home.
We would like to thank Tracey and Bonnie fro their time and the interview, it was a pleasure to talk to you!
Welcome to the show!

Ben "Bance" Bance is a British Call of Duty player currently playing for Toronto Ultra
Ben "Bance" Bance is a competitive Call of Duty player in the United Kingdom. Ben Bance has risen as one of the top European players after some top performances at certain LAN events in Europe. Most notably placing 5-8th at ESWC 2015 beating OpTic 3-2 and taking Denial to last map. Bance and his team at the time under Barrage however didn't progress through the group stages despite these top performances.
Advanced Warfare
Call Of Duty Advanced Warfare was truly the game where Bance became a household name within European eSports. Going into the game he was an unknown entity however impressed at his first LAN event at Insomnia 53 despite a fairly lowly placing. From this he was given the opportunity to join Team XENEX along with a number of upcoming players in the European scene. He attended the first Am2Pro in February of 2015 however only placed 6th which was low for the standards that they had set going into the event. Bance continued to grow as a player throughout the year. He went on to team with RusH, LXT and Urban on both Team Orbit.UK and Barrage eSports whereby they put in top performances at ESWC 2015 beating the mighty OpTic Gaming 3-2 and almost knocking out recent winners of Call Of Duty Championship Denial eSports. Bance went on to join Exertus eSports whereby they picked up a number of top LAN placements closing out Advanced Warfare. Bance won his first ever LAN event picking up for Barrage eSports at Insomnia 55 where they didn't drop a single map.
Black Ops 3
Bance announced that he would be teaming with Dominate, Reedy and Joshh under Splyce early December of 2015. They were invited to the Call Of Duty World League Qualifiers in Cologne, Germany. They went on to qualify however it was a tough ride only just beating FAB eSports 3-2 to qualify. Partly due to these performances change was needed to ensure they were competitive going into the Call Of Duty World League therefore both Reedy and Dominate left. Vortex and Hawqeh were brought in for the remainder of the season.
- Bance impressed at the first LAN Event in Europe for Advanced Warfare earning himself a spot on Xenex
- Bance after his top performances at Am2Pro earned the accolade of a Red Bull Rising Star

The central objective of the European project TRUST is to deliver co-produced knowledge to support Transitions to the Urban Water Services of Tomorrow, enabling communities to achieve a sustainable, low-carbon water future without compromising service quality. TRUST delivered research driven innovations in governance, modelling concepts, technologies, decision support tools, and novel approaches to integrated water, energy, and infrastructure asset management. These innovations have been demonstrated by the implementation of the most promising interventions in the urban water system of the nine different participating city pilot regions. TRUST outcomes are incorporated into planning guidelines and decision support tools, and through dissemination of the knowledge generated to a broad stakeholder community including water utilities, water authorities, technology and service providers, and academics. Among others, the results from the TRUST project can be presented through university courses; i.e. the subject of this deliverable. Given the importance of post-graduate education, a curriculum for a one-year postgraduate course on sustainable management of urban water cycle services (UWCS) is prepared. The aim of the curriculum is to provide a reference that may be adapted or adopted by any European university or network of universities. Although the curriculum and courses presented are hypothetical, for the descriptions actual course contents of several European universities are used. TRUST deliverables are presented as course reading. Open access repository: http://hdl.handle.net/10251/53637

Browns Shouldn't Worry About Odell Beckham Jr. Skipping OTAs
Reports say that Odell Beckham Jr. continues to pick and choose when he wants to show up for Cleveland Browns' voluntary training camp. Much of the reports frown upon this practice, especially when Beckham was likely traded for this kind of behavior and the fact that he now has a brand new team with a lot of potentially great talent. Some reports feel Beckham is missing a valuable opportunity to bond and build chemistry.
Ben Maller, however, thinks everybody needs to put the pitchforks down and instead let things play out. Because the NFL season hasn't begun, we have yet to know if the Browns will be any good. Should the Browns play awful, that'd be the perfect opportunity to call out the star wide receiver. Maller also cites the actions of current Super Bowl Champ, Tom Brady who also would skip training camps. Maller also thinks people need to understand that we all know who Odell Beckham Jr. is and his actions should not be surprising.
Listen to his take below.

Shrubs, A Denver Commercial Property Investment
When looking to improve the value of your Denver property, pay close attention to trees and shrubs. They provide the cosmetic opportunities that other things cannot. Trees and shrubs increase the value of a Denver commercial property by at least 28%, thus increasing traffic in a business, which is something worth protecting. Additionally, while they are great to look at, they are also providing shade and allow the opportunity to save some money on cooling cost. They also improve the overall air quality around us, making just the much easier to live.
The Number One Tree and Shrub Program in Denver
Since tree and shrub care requires a lot of work, we offer a four-visit program to our customers with commercial properties. Our program is year-round, protecting your trees and shrubs from every Denver season possible. We begin our services in the late winter/early spring, from there, we visit in May and August, ending with the fall/winter seasons. We offer a four-visit program, because each season introduces a new weather element, insect, or disease that your trees and shrubs need to be protected from.
Lawn Doctor's Most Trusted Landscaping Treatments
Because every commercial property is different, our Denver landscaping technicians take the time to carefully assess your yards health, generating a customized report about what treatments you will need. A few of the treatments we offer protect against bark borer and ash borer tree pests. These insects are infamous for their damaging and destructive nature to our Denver trees. We also offer Merit soil applications to help treat the inside of the trees, in addition to deep root watering, which help mitigate any permanent damage the trees have under gone.
Contact Lawn Doctor Today
Be sure to give us a call here at Lawn Doctor for all your lawn care and pest control needs. We believe that every residential and commercial property should have the best care available to them, which is why we provide year-round service to the Denver area. We have made it our mission to provide premium landscape services throughout Colorado. No job is too big or too small. So, if you are looking for naturally-based pest control treatments or wanting an entirely new lawn, talk to us today!

I have just found out about the app for I-phones which allows you to use system 3 colours. Why only i-phone? I have a Nokia express, will you be releasing a version compatible with it soon? I appreciate Apple have always had the edge when it comes to graphics but there are an awful lot of us with modern phones by other manufacturers so it would be good to see some recognition for them. Come on Daler, I've been a loyal supporter of your products for 30+ years, and this app looks like something I would definitely use.
