former Gov. Jim McGreevey, seen in this June file photo, called the Supreme Court's decision "remarkable. . . It's a testament to who we are as people that we can change opinions in an orderly, respectful manner, and God willing, to be better people for it."
(John Munson/The Star-Ledger)
Nine years have passed since Gov. Jim McGreevey signed the law creating domestic partnerships as an alternative for same-sex couples -- only to announce his resignation months later when he confessed he was a "gay American" who had been involved in an extramarital affair.
Today, McGreevey relished the state Supreme Court's ruling that same-sex marriages must be allowed in New Jersey beginning Monday, and he marveled at how far the state and the nation have come.
"I never would have envisioned this day," McGreevey said. "And whether you agree with the decision, as do I, or you disagree, there is something very special about America and our state that this could happen. It's a testament to who we are as people that we can change opinions in an orderly, respectful manner, and God willing, to be better people for it."
McGreevey signed the law creating domestic partnerships in 2004. They were intended to convey the same rights as marriage but same-sex couples sued, saying the law perpetuated the discrimination. The state Supreme Court ruled in 2006 that same-sex couple were entitled to all rights and benefits afforded heterosexual couples in marriage, but left t to the state Legislature to decide how to make that happen. As a result, lawmakers established civil unions in 2007, and the lawsuit over that law resulted in today's decision.
"Most of us knew domestic partnerships at best were a stated aspiration as opposed to a clear matter of equity," he said.
Still, it took some arm-twisting to pass that law, McGreevey said.
"It was a difficult vote, frankly, even among Democrats," he said. "To think how far we come in such a short stead, it's remarkable. To envision in my lifetime an African American president and gay marriage is to really redefine that a sense of equity in America is possible."
Today's decision was important for not only couples who want to wed, he added. "For the young gay person, it reaffirms the basic dignity and worth of every person," he said.
"A 12-year-old kid riding his bike in Carteret could never have imagined this," McGreevey, executive director of the Jersey City Employment and Training Program, said with a laugh.
The 56-year-old McGreevey, who lives with his longtime partner in Plainfield, declined to say whether they would marry.

Kesha Shows Off Blue Hair + Talks New ‘Awesome’ Music [PHOTO]
We are loving Kesha more and more these days!
The 27-year-old singer continues to glow and look healthy months after battling an eating disorder and entering rehab as a result. On Thursday, the pop star made her way around New York City showcasing her new, shiny light blue hair as she made appearances on television to promote her ABC music competition show, 'Rising Stars.'
On 'The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon,' Kesha even revealed that she is working on new music.
“I’m working on new music but it’s super top secret and awesome,” she cryptically said.
Kesha revealed to fans on Twitter that she had worked on new material during her time in rehab and even without the need for musical instruments. Since her breakout 'Tik Tok' hit in 2009, Kesha has had four Top 5 Billboard hits, including last year's wildly popular 'Timber' with Pitbull. Her last album, 'Warrior,' was released in 2012 and peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard Albums chart.

text: I’m still digesting the terrible news out of Mumbai. I saw a photo of the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel and Tower on the Yahoo homepage when I went to sign in this morning, and it looked like it was ablaze. It was only after reading the attached article that I began to understand what was happening. This is the hotel where Llew and I began and ended our amazing Indian honeymoon almost four years ago. I can’t tell you how sick and sad it makes me to see this beautiful, historic city – a place of so many happy memories for us, the home of millions of proud and welcoming residents, and the holiday destination for the tens of thousands of domestic and foreign guests it welcomes every year – become the dreadful scene of such terror and carnage. Once again innocent people are dead and injured. Hundreds, probably thousands more are terrified for their lives. What is this madness? How do we begin to combat what we cannot even begin to comprehend?

“Since its invention about 180 years ago, the fuel cell has been filled with hopes that it could never fulfill. Is the breakthrough imminent now?” Marc Lüttgemann asked in 2016 on the homepage of the BDEW Bundesverband der Energie- und Wasserwirtschaft e.V. [Federal Association of the Energy and Water Industry]. The science editor was sure that the breakthrough would come, but not when.
Even the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft cannot predict the future of fuel cells, but it is consistently backing hydrogen, which many consider to be the coal of the future. For this reason, it has combined the strengths of 28 institutes in the “Hydrogen Network,” in which Fraunhofer ILT is also involved. On September 9, 2020, the Aachen engineers also launched the first Laser Colloquium Hydrogen LKH2, which – as a virtual event – also attracted some 55 participants. Ten presentations dealt with many aspects of fuel cell manufacturing with a strong focus on laser materials processing.
2030: Four million cars running on fuel cells?
All parties are highly motivated because the annual production of vehicles with fuel cells is expected to increase by a factor of 160 to almost four million by 2030. This would increase the demand for membrane electrode assemblies (MEA) and bipolar plates (BPP) to around 800 million. To achieve this, however, the industry has to lower the cost of fuel cells significantly, from the current 10,000 to 40,000 euros, says Dr. Christoph Baum, Managing Director at the neighboring Fraunhofer Institute for Production Technology IPT. However, it is difficult to estimate the costs because there are still no “clear market prices.” In the automotive industry, only Toyota and Hyundai produce fuel cells as standard equipment. Most of the costs of a fuel cell are currently accounted for by the MEA (62%) with its high platinum content and by the BPP (30%).
The plate halves are welded together to form bipolar plates and stacked in a stack composite, which not only has good electric and thermal conductivity, but also very reliably stops water, oxygen and above all hydrogen from escaping. Although the plates are usually only as large as a DIN A4 sheet of paper, the weld seams of the two 100 µm thin metal foils to be joined are long. “We not only have to weld the complete outer contour, but also the inlet openings, the so-called manifolds, for water, oxygen and hydrogen,” explains André Häusler, team leader for Micro Joining of Metallic Materials at Fraunhofer ILT. “In addition, depending on the design, welds are made in the channel structure to reinforce the construction. This results in around 1.0 to 1.4 meters of weld seam per plate.”
Humping effect: A threat of leakage due to bulging
Fraunhofer ILT investigated this task within the framework of CoBiP, a joint project with Fraunhofer IPT, in which a continuous roll-to-roll production of metallic BPPs has been created: A 1 kW fiber laser welded two 100 µm thick, uncoated stainless steel foils (1.4404) at a feed rate of a maximum 7,000 mm/s under argon gas. But even at low feed rates, a humping effect occurred, which, due to defects, severely jeopardized the tightness of the seam.
The institutes improved the process by switching from the near infrared range (wavelength: 1070 nm) to visible blue or green laser light (450 or 515 nm), which has an absorption degree of almost 50 percent in typical steel (DC04), twice as high as that of the NIR laser. The best welding was performed by a 1 kW TruDisk 1020 with green laser light, which, at a focus diameter of 80 µm, produced a very good laser seam even at 1,000 mm/s. Häusler explains, “We are currently investigating how melt pool flow and keyhole dynamics can be influenced by changing the wavelength and the beam source in such a way that no humping occurs even at high feed rates.”

The Narrandera Bowling Club is one of 20 projects throughout the Narrandera Shire nominated for consideration under round two of the Stronger Country Communities Fund.
The Bowling Club is seeking funds for an upgrade to the lighting on the bowling greens, install a new irrigation system and access ramps down to the greens. The ultimate aim in seeking the funding is to improve facilities for bowlers as well as other members of the community that utilise the club facilities.
“It will be a great asset for not only bowlers but the entire community if we are successful,” said Narrandera Bowling Club Vice president Tom Ryan. “The lighting and the irrigation are both about 40 years old and they need to be replaced. As for the access ramps – even if we don’t get the grant, we’ll try to provide those anyway. If they are installed there are a few more players we can get back to the club – people who have problems with their hips and knees and don’t like the stairs.”
The Bowling Club undertakes a great deal of work with other community groups in the town. Schools have utilised the greens to teach local kids how to play bowls and Narrandera Out of School Hours (NOOSH) Care has also had bowls sessions for children. The Narrandera Town Band uses the club for rehearsals (“they’ve got some amazing musicians in there,” Mr Ryan added) and the Auto Club and the Vintage Machinery Club have also used the club for their functions.
“The club is open seven days a week. Some days for limited hours, but it’s utilised every day of the week. Recently we’ve sponsored the Narrandera Lizards Rugby League team in the ProTen Community Cup. There’s a large Narrandera Bowling Club logo on their jumpers which look really good. It’d be great to keep it going year after year, “ Mr Ryan said.
June 16 will be a big day for the Lizards, as it is their home game in the ProTen Community Cup and the Bowling Club is looking forward to hosting the teams’ celebrations after the games.
“When the six teams in the Cup have played they will be coming back to the Bowling Club.”
Grant funding would enable the club to be upgraded without having to rely on the community, Mr Ryan said. “With this application, we’re then not asking Narrandera Shire Council or the ratepayers for any money whatsoever. We’re trying to get these projects done out of grant funding.”
That said, a lot of the preliminary work has been offered voluntarily by Bowling Club members to offset the costs.
Mr Ryan elaborated on the type of support the club was already receiving in its quest for funding.
“We’ve got a guy who did our planning for us voluntarily; we’ve had a couple of consultants on getting the correct lighting levels for the new lights. We’ve got a couple of blokes in the club who are work health and safety managers so they’ve taken on that part of the project. Otherwise you lose a lot of funding by paying someone to do all that stuff, because it’s required,” Mr Ryan explained.
He said when the club undertook consultations they tried to make it as unobtrusive as possible by ensuring the neighbours weren’t getting a floodlight through their window when a competition was taking place.
There are 25 volunteers involved in the club who ensure its smooth running. Cleaning, administration, general maintenance and bartending are all undertaken by these volunteers, who have worked hard to improve the club’s financial situation.
“We’re finally starting to get our heads above water,” Mr Ryan said. Some of the club’s success is owed to some seriously innovative thinking on the part of these volunteers. For example at the 2017 AFL match the club advertised moderately-priced schooners and promoted themselves as an ideal location to grab a few drinks before the game.
“In 2022 we’ll be celebrating our 10oth year. We’ve got a few blokes who are determined to still be there, serving as volunteers, when we reach the centenary,” Mr Ryan said.
Support from Bowls NSW
Bowls NSW has thrown its wholehearted support behind the Narrandera Bowling Club’s application for Stronger Country Communities Fund Round Two funding to carry out upgrades to the club.
The club is seeking to improve its amenity and ability to serve as a real community hub and as a valued and integral community asset for Narrandera Shire.
Bowls NSW said the installation of greens lighting proposed as part of the upgrade would enable bowls to be played at night and thereby increase participation by all members of the community. Assisted entry ramps and rails would also help mobility impaired bowlers to enjoy a healthy active lifestyle and boost overall participation in the sport by the local community.
Perfect playing conditions on natural grass greens was an important asset in this day and age and this would be achievable with the proposed installation of an automatic sprinkler system, which would have the added benefit of conserving water usage.
“Beyond being a sporting facility the Bowling Club is an important gathering place, hosting social events, meetings and functions and it has the means to provide a boost for the community and local economy,” said Bowls NSW State President Vince Beard. “It will provide the community of Narrandera Shire with a modern multi-use facility that can continue to serve the local community.
“Bowls NSW strongly supports and recommends the proposal as most worthy of consideration for funding.”

|HCM City authorities seek UNESCO recognition of Củ Chi Tunnels. VNA/VNS Photo
HCM CITY – HCM City authorities have sent a proposal to the Ministry of National Defence to seek UNESCO recognition for Củ Chi Tunnels, the largest underground tunnel network in Việt Nam.
Located about 60km from downtown HCM City, the Củ Chi Tunnels were built by Vietnamese soldiers as shelter from US troops during the war.
More than 120km out of the 250km of the tunnels' length have been preserved for tourism purposes.
In 2016, the historic site was recognised as a special national relic.
Today, the historical tunnel has been preserved and become a popular tourism destination, every day attracting thousands of visitors, both domestic ones and foreigners, who love discovering the country's history through strange and unique places.
Vistors will be able to experience and understand the resilience and unyielding will of the people who lived in the tunnels during wartime. Củ Chi-the poor but heroic land-faced 21 years of warfare against a well-trained enemy with modern weapons.
The tunnel complex in Củ Chi served as communication and supply routes, hospitals, food and weaponry storage, and living quarters.
It began to be known as a “barren land” between 1969 and 1972 as no animal or plant could live there due to US bombs and the use of Agent Orange and dioxins.
A worship area was built with 44,379 stone steles to remember the fallen at Củ Chi.
Việt Nam is home to eight UNESCO recognised world heritage sites: Phong Nha-Kẻ Bàng National Park, Mỹ Sơn Sanctuary, Hội An Ancient Town, the Complex of Huế Monuments, and Citadel of the Ho Dynasty in the central region; along with Hạ Long Bay, Tràng An Landscape Complex, and Thăng Long Imperial Citadel in the north.
If recognised, the Củ Chi Tunnels will be the southern region’s first UNESCO World Heritage Site. – VNS

I have a pain in my right side of my tarpezius in addition to rotator cuff. While I have some exercises to address the rotator cuff, the trap pain is what is really bothering me now. It doesn't seem to matter what I do when sitting, the pain won't go away and occaisionally it increases for short periods of time, whether I move or not. Currently taking Vicodin and skellaxin to manage these, but quite frankly they aren't enough. My genl practicioner has said they have done what they can regarding pain medication. What would be next to deal with this?
Thanks for your Reply!
There are a lot of general practitioners who are not comfortable providing long term pain management. I would suggest asking your doctor to refer you to a pain management doctor, or physiatrist, which is a different type of pain management doctor. Hope you feel better.
I would initially recommend seeing your orthopedist. A rotator cuff tear or other shoulder pathology can refer to the trapezious. Addressing the shoulder (there are a variety of treatment options depending on the problem) may help alleviate the pain. The cervical spine may also play a role. Good luck. Please let me know if you have any other questions.
I saw a pain specialist last Friday. I now have a combination of Celebrex, Tramadol and Baclofen. I also have Lidoderm patches to put directly on the spot where the pain is located. The first and second day this worked great and have included massage and exercise. I have to time when I drive to work as the medication mix causes me to be drowsy about an hour after taking. The drowsy period last about 1/2 hour. Pain has now gone to right side of trap and I will keep working with the exercises for another week to see if this helps. Next step is direct injection into the trouble spot. The knot is still there, but the lidoderm helps.

Twenty-six staff of Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) are working around the clock as caretakers in two wards of the Ministry of Health General hospital in Vavuniya, northern Sri Lanka. The role of caretaker is to support hospital patients' basic health needs from the moment they arrive at the hospital and throughout their treatment.
Sivananthan, the full name of a 25-year old electrician from Vavuniya, is one of the MSF caretakers working alongside Ministry of Health doctors, nurses, and two ward attendants. Along those in his care are 200 patients, including a few paralyzed from the waist down and many with fractures unable to move from their beds.
Wounded in the conflict raging in the north east of the country between the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) and the Sri Lankan military, many of the patients are alone because their relatives are either dead, have been left behind in the conflict zone or are living in one of the camps for displaced people.
"I spent a long time with one of the patients this morning," says Sivananthan. "An older man in his 50s, he has a wound in his backside and he is paralyzed from his waist down. He arrived at the hospital a month ago with nothing other than the sarong he was wearing. He has lost all his family, and all he keeps saying to me is ‘I’ve lost all my family and now I am alone.’ So I spent some time with him this morning, changing his urine bag, feeding him, helping him with the toilet, washing him..."
Sivananthan has been working as caretaker for two months. "At first I found it difficult because I didn’t have any experience, especially with wound dressing," he explains. "But I got some training from MSF and I was taught how to talk to the patient, how to identify the most urgent cases, how to lift the patients, clean their wounds...Now I find dressing wounds quite easy!"
The caretakers’ program started three months ago and the man behind the idea is Voitek Asztabski, MSF project coordinator in Vavuniya. It all began on January 29, when 232 dehydrated, exhausted, and severely injured war-wounded arrived at the hospital from the conflict zone.
"I remember getting our team together to help at the hospital with triage and first aid," explains Voitek. "I stood there in shock watching all these people arriving from the conflict zone being offloaded from buses and ambulances. They were arriving in terrible condition, with nothing or just a few possessions in a plastic bag or bundled up in a piece of clothing. There were some volunteers from the Sri Lankan Red Cross Society helping in the hospital at the time and that is when I first had the idea that MSF could help with distribution of basic items."
So that same day the MSF team started distributing travel bags for patients to carry their belongings, along with a donation of 1,000 rupees (about $8) for patients to buy things like food or a calling card to phone their relatives. Three months on, the program has grown to include 84 caretakers working in 24-hour shifts, seven days a week. When the hospital had 1,850 patients at the end of April, the work of caretakers was even more crucial.
In addition to looking after basic health needs, caretakers go round the wards every day checking the patients’ more general needs and distributing clothing for children and adults, bags, thermoses, slippers, sheets, plates, nappies, and one cash donation as required.
MSF medical teams currently provide surgical and laboratory support in Vavuniya hospital and supplementary feeding in displaced people’s camps in Vavuniya and in Manik Farm. MSF is in the process of setting up an emergency field hospital on the outskirts of the displaced people’s camps in Manik Farm and starting post-operative care activities in Pampaimadhu Ayurvedic clinic, 5km away from the town of Vavuniya.

TSTT: Rally around new brand
Later that night, with surprising swagger before an audience that generally and tragically ignored his short speech—the price of admission for the telecommunications company’s annual media Christmas party—Dr Walcott would amplify those sentiments.
“I am declaring here,” he told the small knot of people around him paying attention to his talk, “that we rule this space, and anyone else in the business should take heed.”
TSTT has killed off the ill-advised Blink brand (did they realise what on the blink means?) in favour of its much better known bmobile identity for customer services.
The telecommunications company will operate as a corporate entity known as TSTT, but all its customer facing services will now be branded with a new, flat design “b” logo which takes its inspiration from the graphic for the Bing search service but is a paper clip all its own.
At the morning media press conference, a silent, dark-suited squad from Republic Bank accompanied the financial institution’s managing director, Nigel Baptiste, but Mr Baptiste notably did not join the panel addressing the media contingent nor did he speak at the formal event, signing the paperwork with a professional smile and accepting a glass ornamental memento of the financial deal.
TSTT’s board has approved a $3.7 billion infrastructure and services improvement plan (http://ow.ly/PNWl306M5Pz) that is designed to make the company more competitive.
“TSTT and CAL are the two state agencies that operate public services that face international competition without any barriers of protection,” said TSTT chairman Emile Elias.
Elias noted that he had already told TATT to get a bush bath (he warns TATT about gru-gru bef thorns here - http://ow.ly/fX9l306M687) when the telecommunications oversight agency did not renew TSTT’s license.
“I can’t tell you what I did, but we did get the license.”
The TSTT chairman wasn’t done with his signature straight talk either.
“If I find that state agencies are giving business to someone else and not to us, there will be consequences. Because you are breaching the manual of public sector governance.”
Dr Walcott noted that the company had spent $900 million as capital expenditure on the project to date out of current cash flow. The balance of the budget for infrastructure improvement will come out of future cash flow over the five-year programme’s life.
TSTT is also quite cheerful about announcements it has scheduled for later this week. It is expected to announce favourable half-year financial results and an overdue revamp of its mobile package offerings, which it has been hinting about quite broadly at for months (http://ow.ly/cgad306M6W3).
The telecommunications company has made the four pillars of its improvement programme public since July. It will evolve and upgrade its technology, pursue greater than 20 per cent revenue growth, transform its customer service and realign its business processes.
Dr Walcott should be warned that the past is prologue.
TSTT’s history of technology implementation over the last ten years hasn’t been inspiring. The company stuck with Edge data technology too long and allowed rival Digicel to take a nine-month lead on them in the introduction of 4G technology. It probably didn’t help that virtually the entire board at the time was technology illiterate.
The company did a costly and extensive upgrade to WiMax just as the technology was becoming obsolete and when it finally implemented 4G, it was a version that sat on the borderline of 3G dataspeeds.
CTIO Roger Richards offered a pained smile at my recounting of these damaging missteps, but argued that the company’s current plans will replace ageing GSM technology with modern UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications System) based hardware, modernising existing systems to compliance with the newer protocol. The company has already begun offering handsome trade-ins for older phones that are incompatible with UMTS.
“Wherever it is too old, we are doing blank slate installations with the intention of implementing an LTE wireless broadband product that is a market leader in the Caribbean,” Richards said, “one with parity with anything available in the first world.
“These are not snap-your-finger solutions, but we are committed to customers in T&T feeling the impact of our investments as soon as possible.”
The company has already implemented HD voice technology on its network.
Dr Walcott acknowledged the peculiarities of TSTT’s staff profile, which is overstaffed in support of ageing systems and technologies and undermanned in innovation and new implementation projects
“As with the legacy systems, there is a skills gap,” he said.
“We are dealing with it through discussions with the union, retraining and restructuring and I would describe that process as 50 per cent complete.”
TSTT is following the Muhammad Ali playbook closely. Training hard for a year, talking big and bold on the verge of entering the ring again and by the end of this week, when TSTT fully throws off its robes, it will be much clearer which fight we’re going to see, the Fight of the Century—which Ali lost after taking a terrible beating from Joe Frazier or the Rumble in the Jungle—which Ali won after being battered fiercely by George Foreman.

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, ADHD is a range of behaviours that present as being a problem and include being impulsive, not paying attention, restlessness and always on the go. It occurs in boys and girls and is sometimes difficult to get a diagnosis or support. It also occurs in adults; often being missed as a child. Parents experience the stress, chaos, disorganised behaviours as well as having to talk with teachers and doctors about what is happening. This is exhausting, going round in circles and is long winded when trying to get a diagnosis. It takes a while yet important to get the right diagnosis as treatment and support for ADHD is important and needs to be right.
A number of people will be involved in making a diagnosis and once made there are a number of treatment and support options. Medication is important; with younger children it is easier to 'get them to take medication' as the child gets older it becomes more difficult and ups and downs of ADHD family life will occur. Having medication is a choice to make; discuss it.
Family and individual support is important (whether or not you choose medication). Part of the work is to ease some of the stress on the parents, other children and the child with ADHD. There are lots of tools and techniques to help get a bit more organised, support paying attention in school and helping to mange bursts of energy and disruptive behaviour, etc.
Such could include:
- Making sure you as a parent get enough sleep, food, exercise, rest etc.
- Making time for the other children in your family.
- Getting more routine to things like bedtime, mealtimes, school work and play. Play could be the energy zapping kind like kick-a-round, Frisbee throwing, etc.
- More specifically school work could be done in short periods of time with a break. Three lots of 15 minutes is better than one slog of 45 minutes.
- For a real fidgety child a spinner might be a good idea with guidance of when it could be used.
Involve the school as they are part of how your child is supported. It is important for them to realise that ADHD is real and can stop a child learning. They may need extra breaks, permission to use the fidget toy, time and advice from the school's special educational support staff.
A child who is supported will develop the skills to cope with ADHD in adult life. Find ways to manage their behaviours in work, relationships, social life, etc. Occasionally hitting a sticky patch but support is available through groups, GP or private services. Adults diagnosed with ADHD may struggle with NHS services. Private services are available and may be the best option.
Most support is through the NHS, but support groups and private services can help. Private services lack waiting times, able to support for longer, broader range of services and support, so check them out first.

Water Pump Replacement Iowa City
Be Mindful of These Aspects When Considering Replacement of Your Water Pump
You live in Iowa City, Iowa and you need to go through water pump replacement very soon in the near future. This process is typically not that hard if you know what you’re doing which, thankfully, most professionals shouldn’t have a hard time doing. However, you may find that you don’t know what to do, here, and that you need help to ensure that things go as smoothly as possible in this process.
So if you’re planning on installing a new water pump soon and you want to make sure things go as smoothly as possible, please don’t hesitate to get professional help for this process. You should obtain professional advice because these expert individuals can give you the insight that you need into properly operating your well and your pump without running into any severe complications.
Underground vs Above Ground Pump Options
When you’re going through water pump replacement, it is essential to consider how deep you’re putting the pump into the ground. This situation will vary depending on a variety of factors. For one thing, you may not put the pump under the ground at all. Some people prefer having their pump closer to the surface so that it is easier to fix and maintain if any problems occur.
However, a pump higher up on the surface of the ground is going to struggle to pump water as efficiently as it would have if it were more rooted in the ground. More importantly, the location of your well is critical to consider because the well is going to have its own depth and place that must be considered before you try adding any new pump to the area.
Before you start adding a pump even after you’ve gauged the well depth, you need to sit down with the contractor to learn more about the location of the pump and how it could affect the quality of your water flow. In many circumstances, the well is going to struggle to operate if the pump location hasn’t been verified, and an installation mistake is made in the process.
Options for Gaining the Best Water Flow Possible
The yield of your well is something that you need to keep in mind whenever considering water pump replacement. For example, you need to figure out how many gallons per minute or GPM your well is capable of producing. The pump needs to be capable of reaching this level, which is critical because it can help your home get the appropriate amount of water from your well.
A simple test is typically undertaken to gauge this level. Professionals use a variety of electronic testing equipment to see how far water drops while you have it flowing. In this way, you can get an idea of the GPM of the pump and the well at the same time. Just as importantly, you need to keep in mind the size of the well and the size of the pump and how this fact will affect the flow of your pump and well.
And, just as importantly, you need to make sure that your well recovers appropriately after the water has flown from it. Typically, this rate should be similar to the GPM rate or close enough to ensure that your well doesn’t dry up. In many cases, this rate may be slightly off depending on how often you use your well and pump, so make sure to keep this factor in mind before you get a new pump installed.
Understanding the Well Construction Method for Efficiencies
Lastly, you need to pay attention to how the well is being added to your property to ensure that your water pump replacement method goes as smoothly as possible. This factor is not as uniform as you might imagine and can complicate how well your pump operates after installation. For example, well building methods vary depending on the type of well that you own.
Some wells are sunk into the ground and supported with a variety of different beams and concrete support systems. Others require that you dig up the soil around the well and carefully insert it into the ground. All of these different construction methods will vary how your pump is installed, so make sure that you talk to your building professional to ensure that they know what to do in this situation.
Just as importantly, your water pump replacement technique needs to change to suit the unique needs of the ground in which you place it. For example, land that has a very silty or sandy construction will be reasonably easy to dig but may not settle as quickly. Soil with a lot of clay will be tough to uncover and may cause complications with how well your water pumps and how well water flows from it. And rocky soil will be hard to dig but may provide natural water filtering benefits.
Experts Offer the Best Recommendations
As you can see, replacing your water pump requires that you take into account many elements of your well and its location. A failure to do so could result in some pretty poor results, including an inability to repair the well and other complications. As a result, you need to take the time to fully understand well positioning, how it affects this situation, and what you can do to ensure the best results.
So if you live in Iowa City, Iowa and you need help with water pump replacement, please don’t hesitate to contact us at Brown Well Pump Service to learn more about this beneficial process. Our professionals will take the time to fully assess your situation and provide you with the help that you need to ensure that your pump is installed correctly and efficiently in your home.

I’m about to start writing an Eraser Reborn Review. I recently rewatched the first Eraser film to get in the mood for this. And, as I suspected, this is a remake rather than a sequel. Alternatively, a reboot. or, as the film is dubbed, “reborn.” If you’ve watched the original, you might be wondering, “Do I need to see this?” It depends; if the other one is still fresh in your mind and you recall it warmly, you should avoid it.
Apart from that, there is some nice action in the film, and I’ve seen worse. However, the CGI is poor, and it nearly entirely negates the environmental message being conveyed. Especially the last paragraph (he went for a ride is replacing the caught a train one-liner – which you may find funny or not).
Overall, there are a few storyline alterations, but you’ll notice them and be able to predict where the film is headed. Vanessa Williams, the newcomer, is likewise quite attractive… and she knows what she wants… I also saw that she and the lead actor co-starred in a television show. I’m guessing at least a couple of episodes. But they knew each other, which I believe contributed to their on-screen chemistry and enthusiasm. This is a DVD/streaming title, so expect to receive it.
Professional chefs would not be required—similarly, movies. The producers made the best decision by investing the money saved by hiring relative unknowns in photography, sound, combat sequences, and special effects. There’s only one issue. Unlike the original (which I watched in a theater), there was never a time in this picture where I was concerned about what would happen to any of these people. Not even a smidgeon.
I walked in with no expectations and was pleasantly impressed by the quality of the production. Character development, appealing performers, the standard action thriller narrative, a slew of fast-paced action scenes, chases, gun battles, and knife fights, and little to slow things down. To keep you engaged, it was well filmed and directed. From start to finish, it’s exciting and engaging.

Find Saatva Mattress Prmotion…
In this article we will attempt to comprehend why this mattress has been viewed as better than the Tempurpedic mattress. While both types of bed mattress offer excellent support, there are subtle differences between the 2 that make a difference when picking a bed mattress for your back.
The most obvious difference between the two is the firmness of the bed mattress. If you tend to be on your stomach and sleep on your side, the Tempurpedic will provide more convenience since it is more firm. If you sleep on your back and have a lot of pressure put on your spine, the Saatva is the much better mattress due to the fact that of its softer, more encouraging feel. This makes the mattress suitable for people who experience back pain or spine disorders. Likewise, the Saatva is more resistant to allergens and for that reason more comfortable for those with allergies.
Another distinction between the 2 is the material on the mattress is made from. While many individuals believe of memory foam when they hear the term Tempurpedic, there are actually several different variations of this mattress product.
Both Tempurpedic and Sauna offer high quality mattresses and both use memory foam in their mattresses. As for the Tempurpedic brand, it’s well-known for its exceptional style and many customers delight in the distinct styling of these mattresses.
It all depends on how your specific back condition is and what you desire from a mattress. If you have back discomfort or need some type of orthopedic assistance in order to feel more comfortable, then a Tempurpedic bed mattress might be much better matched to your requirements. Saatva Mattress Prmotion
If you have a particular type of back issue that needs some type of orthopedic assistance, then choosing a Tempurpedic mattress might be better. If your back trouble is less serious, then you’ll probably do well with a Sauna mattress.

Monday 29th September 2014 – 5.15pm – Suzie Wheaton.
West Midlands Ambulance Service (WMAS) has now trained 30,000 members of public from Staffordshire in the lifesaving British Heart Foundation HeartStart course.
This huge milestone for the project is being marked as ambulance staff train a further 23 pupils at Burton and Derbyshire College (BSDC) to become HeartStart Instructors today (Monday 29th September).
On the 1st April 2012, the service embarked on the five year project, aiming to train basic life support skills to 60,000 people within the county. That means the service has, on average, trained almost 33 people every single day across the county, in vital lifesaving skills.
The free two hour British Heart Foundation courses are suitable for anyone from the age of ten years old and up, covering various lifesaving and first aid techniques, including CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation), the management of severe bleeding, loss of consciousness, chocking and chest pain.
Victoria Tufail, WMAS Community Response Manager said: “The project has really gone from strength to strength, with many more courses planned over the forthcoming months.
“The Trust is absolutely thrilled by the response for these courses. We believe that it is extremely important to increase the public’s understanding of what they should do in a medical emergency.
“One of the main aims of the project was to concentrate on getting schools and colleges involved, providing pupils with lifesaving skills at a young age. Burton and Derbyshire College has really embraced the ethos of the project; not only teaching their public service students in the course, but also taking it one step further with many of the students going on to become HeartStart instructors.
“I’d like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has been involved in making this project a success so far, from the dedicated HeartStart team and volunteer trainers, who have put in tireless efforts, to the public for proactively supporting the project and taking part in the course.”
Rob Stevenson, Public Services Lecturer at Burton and South Derbyshire College added: “We are delighted to be continuing our commitment to the HeartStart project.

"When our donors met the actual people they were helping they often didn’t like them. During our Secret Santa drive, volunteers sometimes refused to drop gifts at houses with TVs inside. They got angry when clients had cell phones or in some other way didn’t match their expectations. Other times, the donations we got were too disgusting to pass along—soup cans that bulged with botulism and diapers so dry rotted they crumbled in our hands. One Thanksgiving, a board member called from the parking lot, requesting help carrying a frozen turkey from her trunk to our office. “Can you find a deserving family?” she asked. I lugged the bird up three flights of stairs. Somewhere near the top, I noticed the expiration date. It was seventeen years old." Anya Groner talks about working for Hudson Outreach in up-state New York and the sobering, chilling effect it had on her idealism.

The Age of Uncertainty, A Personal View
by John Kenneth Galbraith
was a 12 (or 15) part documentary mini-series about the fickle art of economics, co-produced by the BBC, CBC, KCET & OECA
, and broadcast on television in 1977.
Galbraith’s dry Scottish Canadian wit, and the 70’s-style art-direction, are worth viewing for those who like this sort of thing. The parody corporate videos for the Conglomerate UGE
anticipated some of the ideas explored later in the 2003 documentary The Corporation
Some parts will seem dated, considering that this series was produced in the thick of The Cold War
, before the rise of Reaganomics, Thatcherism, The Fall of the Berlin Wall, the rise of the EU, yuan, electronic transfers, etc. The basic insights about the instability of financial markets are still real, as always. [more inside]

Rabbi Myer Kripke, of Omaha, dies at 100. The New York Times obituary
tells the story of the Kripkes and a couple they played bridge with and became friends with, Susan and Warren Buffett. In 1966, they approached Buffett to manage their savings, and they wound up making $25 million, all of which they gave away.
piece also devotes a half a sentence to Rabbi Kripke's son, "Saul Kripke, a Princeton scholar who has been called the world’s greatest living philosopher" (cynics should note that Saul Kripke shot to prominence before his parents were rich).

The Mayday SuperPAC.
Yesterday Lawrence Lessig announced
the launch of the Mayday SuperPAC, "The SuperPAC to end all SuperPACs." Its ultimate goal is to achieve constitutional campaign finance reform. They've set out specific funding goals--$1 million in 30 days, $5 million in the next 30--which will be matched by Lessig and other (currently) anonymous funders once achieved. Their initial goal is to influence races in five House districts and if successful they hope to expand in 2016.

Gilens and Page analyze
1,779 policy outcomes over a period of more than 20 years. They conclude that “economic elites and organized groups representing business interests have substantial independent impacts on U.S. government policy, while mass-based interest groups and average citizens have little or no independent influence.”
Average citizens have “little or no independent influence” on the policy-making process? This must be an overstatement of Gilens’s and Page’s findings, no?

Ask Polly: Will Our Class Differences Tear Us Apart?
I've been with my current boyfriend for three years. We're really great together—similar interests, senses of humor, great sex. I love him so much—the only issue is that of our respective backgrounds. He grew up in a tony suburb, went to prep school, then to a very prestigious college, and finally the very prestigious graduate school where we met. I went to public school in a bad neighborhood, put myself through a not-so-prestigious college, made a name for myself in my field, then got into that same prestigious grad school. Our families could not be more different. I didn't think it would matter so much, but something happened recently that I can't shake. [more inside]

There is much talk today of a financial and economic crisis comparable to the 1930s. With the threat of a currency war and the euro’s collapse looming, the specter of the Great Depression’s bloody aftermath has returned with a vengeance. Several versions of how to make human beings and build society co-existed during the Cold War, when much of the world won independence from colonial empire. Yet, discussion of humanity’s growing interdependence is today limited to a one-world capitalism driven by finance. What have anthropologists to say about that? It would seem very little. But a positive case can be made for the discipline’s contribution to public debate. We make such a case here. We review recent developments in the anthropology of money and finance, listing its achievements, shortcomings and prospects, while referring back to the discipline’s founders a century ago. Economic anthropologists have tended to restrict themselves to niche fields and marginal debates since the 1960s. We hope to reverse this trend by focusing on money’s role in shaping global society and bringing world history into a more active dialogue with ethnography.

In 2014, Bitcoin (BTC) has become established as increasingly "real" money with government regulatory interest
, law enforcement
, and growing acceptance
, but also as the reserve cryptocurrency for hundreds of "altcoins,"
making them also convertible to legacy money. Foremost among these is Litecoin (LTC),
which introduced the scrypt hashing algorithm to cryptocurrency, democratizing coin mining by being best suited to common GPUs rather than Bitcoin's dedicated mining equipment. Recently donated LTC paid for a forest
in Madagascar. Peercoin (PPC),
next in prominence, introduces "proof of stake" where less energy is spent mining and existing coins pay interest. Dogecoin (DOGE),
a fork of Litecoin (previously
covered on Metafilter
), continues heading to the moon
, with more transactions than all other coins combined
, thriving markets in digital goods
, an upcoming party in NYC's Bitcoin Center on Wall Street
, much charity
, and the recent announcement
that new Dogecoins will be generated indefinitely. A selection of other foremost and interesting cryptocurrencies is within. [more inside]

This shift in how companies are governed and raise money is bringing with it a structural change in American capitalism. That should be a matter of great debate. Are these new businesses, with their ability to circumvent rules that apply to conventional public companies, merely adroit exploiters of loopholes for the benefit of a plutocratic few? Or do they reflect the adaptability on which America’s vitality has always been based?

When the announcement had been made that Wimbledon FC would be moved to Milton Keynes, to later be rebranded MK Dons, a meeting was called by Wimbledon fans. Toward the end of a charged meeting in the Wimbledon Community Centre, Kris Stewart, then chair of the Wimbledon Independent Supporters Club, realized that the fans had no chance of hanging on to their club and that no amount of protests would stop the franchise moving to Milton Keynes. In that moment Stewart made his walk through the crowd toward the microphone. “I’m tired of fighting,” he said before issuing a spontaneous rallying cry that has become legendary among fans of AFC Wimbledon. “I just want to watch football.”

Ruby-Strauss learned his craft working for the notorious Judith Regan, in whose shadow all lowbrow publishing still operates. In college at the University of California, Santa Cruz, he had been a comp-lit major who scoffed when friends talked up popular sci-fi books. “I was too pretentious,” he says. “I was reading Camus.” (A far way from that to Tucker Max, I noted. “Is it?” he replied.) Under Regan, he came to appreciate the simpler beauty of “books that sell.” He acquired a book by shock-rock star Marilyn Manson and then a series of pro-wrestling books, still his highest-selling titles ever. He once took Regan to a match, where he remembers her looking around the arena and declaring happily of the crowd, “You could sell them blank pages!”

Why People Mistake Good Deals for Rip-Offs. In another experiment, the ventral putamen, a region of the brain that processes reward, was more active when people drank Pepsi than when they drank Coke—except when they were told that they were drinking Pepsi. Coke’s brand appeal is so powerful, and our ability to determine the value of cola so fickle, that our brains respond differently as soon as we learn that what we’re drinking isn’t Coke. The physical experience doesn’t change at all, but we’re unable to peg the value of a brown, caffeinated soda until we know where its life began.

Tropical Cyclone Cilida formed north of Mauritius on Wednesday. At 10:00 p.m. EST on Wednesday the center of Tropical Cyclone Cilida was located at latitude 12.2°S and longitude 59.8°E which put it about 585 miles (945 km) north-northeast of Port Louis, Mauritius. Cilida was moving toward the southwest at 5 m.p.h. (8 km/h). The maximum sustained wind speed was 55 m.p.h. (90 km/h) and there were wind gusts to 70 m.p.h. (110 km/h). The minimum surface pressure was 989 mb.
The circulation around Tropical Cyclone Cilida organized quickly on Wednesday. A small circular eye formed at the center of circulation. A ring of strong thunderstorms formed around the eye and the strongest winds were occurring in that ring of storms. A strong band of storms wrapped around the western and northern sides of Cilida. Other bands of showers and thunderstorms were revolving around the core of Tropical Cyclone Cilida. Winds to tropical storm force extended out about 100 miles (160 km) from the center of circulation.
Tropical Storm Cilida will move through an environment favorable for intensification during the next 48 to 72 hours. Cilida will move over water where the Sea Surface Temperature is near 27°C. It will move through an area where the upper level winds are weak and there will be little vertical wind shear. Cilida is likely to strengthen into the equivalent of a hurricane/typhoon on Thursday and it could intensify rapidly. Tropical Cyclone Cilida could intensify into the equivalent of a major hurricane in two or three days.
Tropical Cyclone Cilida will move around the western end of a subtropical ridge. The ridge will steer Cilida toward the south during the next several days. On its anticipated track Tropical Cyclone Cilida could approach Mauritius from the north in about 48 hours.
Elsewhere over the South Indian Ocean Tropical Cyclone Kenanga drifted southeast of Diego Garcia. At 10:00 p.m. EST on Wednesday the center Tropical Cyclone Kenanga was located at latitude 16.5°S and longitude 81.9°E which put it about 910 miles (1470 km) southeast of Diego Garcia. Kenanga was stationary. The maximum sustained wind speed was 125 m.p.h. (205 km/h) and there were wind gusts to 155 m.p.h. (250 km/h). The minimum surface pressure was 947 mb.

Lost Civilisations and Diffusionism
UNDERGROUND! The Disinformation Guide to Ancient Civilizations
Discovery of Atlantis: Startling New Evidence and the Case for Cyprus
Was Cyprus the mythical Atlantis?
Before the Flood
From Atlantis to the Sphinx
Colin Wilson believes that thousands of years before ancient Egypt and Greece became powerful, there was a great civilization whose ships travelled the world. Whereas we have no way of viewing the universe as a whole, these “old ones” possessed a knowledge system that offered a unified view of the universe, which was then passed on to descendants who escaped to Egypt and South America. It was this knowledge system – alien to modern man – that enabled them to move stones weighing a thousand tons. In this exploration of the remote depths of history, Wilson sets out to reconstruct that ancient knowledge. He attempts to understand how the long-forgotten people thought, felt and communicated on a universal plane.
Legend: The Genesis of Civilisation
Synopsis: A sequel to “A Test of Time”, this text continues the author’s pursuit for historical truth, and reveals what really happened in seven famous myths and legends, showing us that the passage of time has not wiped away all the evidence of the reality behind the legends.
Maps of the Ancient Sea Kings
Charles H. Hapgood
Enormously controversial book by a scholarly, Harvard-educated
Professor who has been shunned and ignored by orthodox academics. Argues
that old maps preserve a legacy geographical knowledge originating in an
ancient lost civilisation. See Gregory McIntosh’s book on Piri Reis for a
criticism, as well as ancient map links in links section.
The Atlantis Syndrome
Underworld: The Mysterious Origins of Civilisation
Voyages of the Pyramid Builders
Is it a mere coincidence that pyramids are found across our globe? Did cultures ranging across vast spaces in geography and time, such as the ancient Egyptians; early Buddhists; the Maya, Inca, Toltec, and Aztec civilizations of the Americas; the Celts of the British Isles; and even the Mississippi Indians of pre-Columbian Illinois, simply dream the same dreams and envision the same structures?
Scientist and tenured university professor Robert M. Schoch-one of the world’s preeminent geologists in recasting the date of the Great Sphinx-believes otherwise.

Information on what (DLSD) is and the treatment and causes.
Degenerative Suspensory Ligament Disorder (DSLD) is a degenerative disorder that affects the front and hind legs in a horse. In this disease the pasterns eventually become horizontal and there is a gradual straghtening of the stiffle and hock angle. In (DSLD) the suspensory ligament looses it’s integrity and the ability to support the horse. This disorder has been found in Peruvian Paso’s, Peruvian Paso crosses,ind legs. American saddlebreds, Quarter horses, and Arabians.
(DSLD) is cuased when the horse develops an unusual response to stresses on their suspenosry ligaments. The body fails to make new collagen for repairing tiny tears and rips in the tissue. Unfortunitly in this disorder the cartilage takes the place of where the new collagen was suposed to be made resulting in losso f strenth and elasticity in tissue.
There are many common symptoms that can now ca nbe used to identify this disorder, unfortunitly many times it is too late, and the disorder is already in it’s highest stages. The most common symptoms a horse will exibit are pain and lamness in both front and hind legs.O n hard pavement or surfaces horses will usually rock back and forth to ease the pain off their legs. Horses can also stumble and trip over their owno feet, and may show a false colic. They may show a change in attitude, sitting on fenses and rocks and becoming irritable. Horses also given a flexation test will not pass, but fail in two or more legs. A horse’s fetlocks can tend to sink in as the horse moves and the pasterns will gradually become paraelle to the ground.

) can be diagnosed by ultra sound and thermo-graph. Ultrasound can show a weak fiber pattern at the beginning of the suspensory ligament. Many horses that have (DSLD) or have been diagnosed with it ahve a very limited future, some can be good enough to be retired and turned out to pasture and some may need to be put down. It all depends on the severity of the disorder and if you can detect it in time, also keep a good eye on your horses legs while brushing them or picking out their feet. Polo’s and sport medicine boots can improve the level of comfort for a hose especially with the uneven of pain but may only be left on for a max of 12 hours a day.
