Canon's flagship EOS-1D Mark III is the most advanced EOS Digital SLR Canon has ever produced. It has a new 10.1 megapixel CMOS sensor (APS-H size) with the EOS Integrated Cleaning System and a 3.0-inch LCD monitor providing Live View capability. The 1D Mark III has a redesigned 100% viewfinder, a new 45-point AF system, and can shoot up to 10 fps continuously with a maximum burst of 110 shots. Dual "DIGIC III" Image Processors work in tandem to speed up every process and a new, lighter body has improved weather sealing and shutter durability. Read on - we have a lot of information to share about this phenomenal camera!
The EOS-1D Mark III CMOS sensor has an expanded sensitivity range of ISO 50-6400. 14-bit A/D conversion allows fine gradation and a significant drop in digital and shadow noise. With its generous 28.1 x 18.7mm image size, the sensor captures every nuance of your scene from highlight to shadow. Efficient noise reduction ensures an extremely high signal-to-noise ratio. Framing is natural because the sensor's 3:2 aspect ratio is the same as in 35mm cameras, and the sensor's large size has an effective angle of view that's just 1.3 times the focal length indicated on Canon EF lenses.
With a maximum continuous shooting speed of approximately 10 frames per second, for up to 110 shots, the EOS-1D Mark III must be the world's fastest digital SLR. Bursts are first recorded to the camera's internal memory to ensure maximum speed and then transferred to memory cards for storage. The number of shots remaining during a burst is displayed on the right side of the viewfinder.
The EOS-1D Mark III raises the bar for auto focus performance. It uses a 45-point high density AF system that provides not only the industry's largest continuous AF coverage area, but also the greatest range of control over focusing point selection. The focusing point can be selected automatically by the camera (based on high-speed microcomputer analysis of image content), or you can manually select any of 19 cross-type AF points which can be complemented by 26 additional Assist Points for pin sharp accuracy.
A processing unit devoted solely to focusing the 1D Mark III uses advanced algorithms that ensure the fastest, most accurate AF performance under the widest variety of conditions, with processing up to 3x faster and a full stop darker than on the EOS-1D Mark II N. The One-Shot AF mode is ideal for more static subjects. The camera rapidly selects the optimum focusing point and the subject is instantly brought into focus even if it is off-center. The AI Servo AF mode is excellent for moving subjects. Aided by a highly "intelligent" predictive focusing algorithm, it precisely tracks subject movement, even at speeds of up to 10 fps. Even with erratic or rapid subject movement, the photographer can shoot continuously, concentrating solely on image composition.
The 1D Mark III is clad in a magnesium alloy shell, chassis and top panel, providing impressive strength without excessive weight. All of the 1D Mark III controls and external cover seams are sealed from water and dust. Even the perimeter of the 1D Mark III's hot-shoe is ribbed for water resistance, enabling flash photography with Canon's Speedlites.
Canon has also introduced a new, lightweight lithium-ion battery system that provides feedback on the LCD monitor, including number of shots taken on a charge, percentage of battery power remaining and whether the battery should be reconditioned with the charger. With the new battery installed, the EOS-1D Mark III body is about 1/2 pound (approx. 225g) lighter than the EOS-1D Mark II body.
Designed to maximize performance between the capture and recording stages of digital photography, the EOS-1D Dual "DIGIC III" chips give the camera two of Canon's newest processing units, working in parallel. This technology works to dramatically enhance image quality and deliver the speed and power needed to combine 10 million pixels and 10 frames per second. The entire electronic system was totally re-designed, giving the camera its incredible combination of speed and image quality. Digital noise is significantly reduced in shadow areas, and color reproduction is superior.
The 3.0-inch LCD monitor on the EOS-1D Mark III has a Live View option, where the photographer can compose and shoot directly from the LCD monitor. Achieved via a menu setting (by raising the SLR camera's mirror), the Live View function enables the photographer to zoom in and navigate the composition at 5x or 10x normal size, while enabling critical manual focus and allowing more attention to detail. Users can even choose a grid overlay, perfect for architectural photography.

As the seasons change, it’s important to replace insulation that is worn and outdated, or add it where there’s not enough. Having enough insulation throughout the house will substantially cut down on energy costs. Some 50 to 75 percent of energy usage in a home comes from heating and cooling costs. Improperly installed and old insulation can make that usage much higher than necessary.
Insulation not only helps keep a house cooler in the summer; it helps keep a house warmer in the winter. Heat will transfer from a warmer area to a cooler one automatically. If there is not adequate insulation in the walls, attic, basement or other areas in the house, the precious heat will escape to the outside (or infiltrate to the inside in the summer) and force your HVAC system to work harder than necessary. This wastes energy and adds to stress on system components. The older the home, the better chance that the insulation is faulty. Poor or lacking insulation also can contribute to pest infestation, mold, mildew and dust.
The federal Energy Star program has created a chart that explains R-Value, the measure of how well a given piece of insulation can resist heat transfer. Different areas of the country have different recommended levels of insulation. For example, Orlando and Central Florida are located in zone 2, which requires insulation at an R-Value ranging from R-30 to R-60, depending on where it’s being installed in a home.
Trying to determine yourself if insulation needs to be replaced can be tiresome and costly. It’s always best to have an energy evaluation done by a professional for the best results. An evaluation and estimate can be provided to you at no charge.

This report was created for strategic planners, international executives and import/export managers who are concerned with the market for coal gas, water gas, producer gas, and similar gases excluding petroleum gases and other gaseous hydrocarbons. With the globalization of this market, managers can no longer be contented with a local view. Nor can managers be contented with out-of-date statistics that appear several years after the fact. I have developed a methodology, based on macroeconomic and trade models, to estimate the market for coal gas, water gas, producer gas, and similar gases excluding petroleum gases and other gaseous hydrocarbons for those countries serving the world market via exports or supplying from various countries via imports. I do so for a specific year based on a variety of key historical indicators and econometric models.
- Which countries are supplying coal gas, water gas, producer gas, and similar gases excluding petroleum gases and other gaseous hydrocarbons?
- How much do the imports of coal gas, water gas, producer gas, and similar gases excluding petroleum gases and other gaseous hydrocarbons vary from one country to another?
- Which countries supply the most exports of coal gas, water gas, producer gas, and similar gases excluding petroleum gases and other gaseous hydrocarbons?
In what follows, Chapter 2 begins by summarizing the regional markets for imported and exported coal gas, water gas, producer gas, and similar gases excluding petroleum gases and other gaseous hydrocarbons. The total level of imports and exports on a worldwide basis, and those for each region, is based on a model which aggregates across over 150 key country markets and projects these to a specific year. From there, each country represents a percent of the world market. This market is served from a number of competitive countries of origin. Based on both demand and supply-side dynamics, market shares by country of origin are then calculated across each country market destination.
After the worldwide summary in Chapter 2 of both imports and exports, Chapter 3 details the exports of coal gas, water gas, producer gas, and similar gases excluding petroleum gases and other gaseous hydrocarbons, for each individual country. Chapter 4 does the same, but for imports of coal gas, water gas, producer gas, and similar gases excluding petroleum gases and other gaseous hydrocarbons for all countries in the world. In all cases, the total dollar volume and percentage share values by major trading partner are provided. Combined, Chapters 3 and 4 present the complete picture for imports and exports of coal gas, water gas, producer gas, and similar gases excluding petroleum gases and other gaseous hydrocarbons to and from all major countries in the world.
Of the countries considered, if a country is not reported here it is therefore estimated to have only a negligible level of trade in coal gas, water gas, producer gas, and similar gases excluding petroleum gases and other gaseous hydrocarbons (i.e. their market shares are close or equal to zero percent). "Coal Gas, Water Gas, Producer Gas, and Similar Gases Excluding Petroleum Gases and Other Gaseous Hydrocarbons" as a category is defined in this report following the definition given by the United Nations Statistics Division Classification Registry using the Standard International Trade Classification, Revision 3 (SITC, Rev. 3).
The SITC code that defined "coal gas, water gas, producer gas, and similar gases excluding petroleum gases and other gaseous hydrocarbons" is 3450.
This report was created for the market for coal gas, water gas, producer gas, and similar gases excluding petroleum gases and other gaseous hydrocarbons.

Why Prenups Aren't Just for the Rich and Famous How can the ordinary person benefit from a pre-nup?
Marriage is one of the most serious contracts you will enter into during your lifetime, but unlike other contracts - think mortgages, car loans, and employment agreements- the terms aren’t in writing. That’s why we encourage every married couple to enter into a pre- or post-nuptial agreement.
Marital agreements get a bad rap because the only time most people hear about them is when a celebrity or ultra-wealthy couple is getting divorced. However, being rich and famous is not a prerequisite for entering into a marital contract. Nor do you need to be getting divorced to find a pre- or post-nuptial agreement useful.
Here are a few examples of situations normal people may find themselves in where a marital agreement would be useful: • Business owners and partners should always get a prenuptial agreement. If not, his or her new spouse could become liable for business debts. In addition, if the business owner were to die without an estate plan in place, the spouse could be forced to take on the role of business owner or partner.
• If one or both partners have children from a prior relationship, a marital agreement can help ensure that commitments made to those children are known and honored by the soon-to-be-step-parent.
• If either partner is bringing a large amount of money, or a large amount of debt, to the relationship, a pre-marital agreement can shield that asset or liability from the other spouse. Nearly everyone today has some debt before marriage - be it a credit card or college loans - so this is a real issue that needs to be dealt with that older generations just didn’t have to think about.
• Other assets can also be mentioned in prenuptial agreements. For example, a woman might have inherited a share in a family-owned vacation home at the shore. The house was to be shared by the woman and her sisters and then passed down to the woman’s future children and her nieces and nephews. By putting information about the cabin in her prenuptial agreement, she can ensure that the wishes of her family are carried out. Having an open conversation about assets, including businesses and property, debts, and children is something all couples should be doing. Writing a prenuptial agreement just takes that conversation one step further by putting it into writing. If you aren’t discussing these serious topics with you future partner you are doing more to damage your relationship than the supposed “curse” that comes with creating a prenuptial agreement ever will.
If you would like to learn more about the benefits of prenuptial agreements, call our Austin family law and matrimonial attorneys today at (512) 948-3688 to set up a confidential consultation.

Absolutely perfect. Clean, inviting, it felt like home. Wonderful location, just walk up Sanborn and you are at Sunset Blvd...cafes, restaurants. Its also very close to a subway station (15 min walk).

The location was great. It has off street parking, which is a must in LA. It was just down the street from lots of restaurants and coffee shops. There was a shared kitchen so IF we wanted we could have saved our left overs or fixed something ourselves. The rooms were clean and the host was friendly and more than helpful.
Everything about this guest house is great. I hope to stay here again.
This was a beautiful spot. My parents loved it, and it was fresh, clean, and super convenient location.

I am so happy to be back in Florence. Although it seems like it has been a year (in reality it has only been 4 months since I left). After spending all last year living in Florence, it is a bit surreal to be back.
I am living on the opposite side of town, which makes it feel like a completely different world. Everything is the same but different. Of course, that is what Tampa felt like when I returned last December.
Working with students again has been exhausting but exhilarating. I forgot how much fun it was to experience Florence through their eyes. I think the experience of being abroad has already rocked their world, we even had one student who had never been on a plane before (you can read why I am such a fan of study abroad here). Some of them are really into taking photos, which is basically a dream come true for me.
The group is large (60+ people), but so fun (one of my students even joked that he was going to start a blog Museums and Manpris, as in capris for men lol). They have great attitudes and are generally excited and interested in seeing and learning about everything. We have been here less than a week, but we have already climbed the Duomo, ventured into the countryside (more on that soon), visited some churches, hiked to Piazzale Michelangelo, and sampled lots of local food and wine (you can follow our adventures on Snapchat – HinHH).
The group had a bit of trouble adjusting to traveling in such a large group at the start, but they are coming around nicely (you can read my advice for traveling in a group here). Our schedule for the month is intense. The goal is to give them a taste of everything Italy has to offer. That means we are go, go, go — Siena this Friday, Amalfi next week, Venice the week after that, followed by day trips in Montepulciano and Pienza before heading to Rome (all with classes in Florence sprinkled in between). I am already tired, but it is so worth it. They remind me why I love teaching and working with study abroad.
That sounds amazing! How did you first become involved with teaching study abroad students?
I was lucky and fell into it! I started as a teaching assistant and just never stopped.

Two leading U.S. officials say Washington does not believe a recent explosion in North Korea was nuclear. South Korean reports say the explosion caused a large mushroom-shaped cloud in North Korea's Yanggang province, near the Chinese border.
Secretary of State Colin Powell told the ABC television program This Week Washington does not believe North Korea has conducted a nuclear test. "We have no indication that was a nuclear event of any kind. Exactly what it was, we are not sure," he said.
He added, though, that U.S. authorities are closely monitoring reports of increased activity at a potential North Korean nuclear-test site.
"There have been some activities taking place at some sites that we are watching carefully," he added. "But it is not conclusive that they are moving toward a test or they're just doing some maintenance at that site. It is not conclusive."
South Korean officials say they are now trying to confirm whether an explosion occurred. National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice put forth one theory for the recent cloud over North Korea, on CNN's Late Edition.
"There are all kinds of assessments that are going on," she said. "Maybe it was a fire of some kind, a forest fire of some kind. But we do not believe at this point that it was a nuclear event."
Ms. Rice says the United States retains the option of using military force against North Korea because of its nuclear-weapons program. But she says President Bush is committed to pursuing a diplomatic solution to the North Korean nuclear crisis, through multilateral talks that also include South Korea, China, Japan and Russia.
"If the North Koreans were to test, and so far, we do not know if they are planning to, but if they were, they would simply isolate themselves further," she added. "The international community has spoken with one voice about it, and most importantly, the United States is no longer, as it was with the Agreed Framework in 1994, in a bilateral agreement with the North Koreans. This is a six-party arrangement, in which North Korea's neighbors are saying that North Korea must abandon its nuclear-weapons programs."
Speaking on the NBC television program "Meet the Press," former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright said when the Clinton administration left office, it felt North Korea was "the most dangerous place to deal with."
She blamed the Bush administration for not taking adequate action to deal with the North Korean nuclear threat.
"And I also think they [North Korea] get the wrong message out of Iraq. You know, we [the US] invade countries that do not have nuclear weapons and we do not invade those that do," she said. "We did not invade the Soviet Union and China, so why not build up nuclear weapons as quickly as possible?"
Meanwhile, Senate Intelligence Committee chairman, Pat Roberts, acknowledged to CNN that other countries may question the credibility of U.S. intelligence, in the wake of the failure to find weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.
But Senator Roberts added that in discussions about North Korea on a recent visit to Beijing, Chinese officials raised no concerns to him about U.S. intelligence information.

Psoriasis occurs in 3.2 percent of the US population, according to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Of patients with psoriasis, 10 to 30 percent also have psoriatic arthritis, a debilitating disease that involves the skin, joints, and heart, and can even cause foot arthritis. It can be an extremely challenging condition to live with, but having the support of a loved one can make it easier.
As with psoriasis, there's no cure for psoriatic arthritis. However, it's possible to get the condition under control and even achieve remission with disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) and biologic drugs. Over the last few years, an increase in new therapies and new research into treatment of psoriatic arthritis have improved the prospects of many people with psoriatic arthritis.
Fatigue is a common symptom of psoriatic arthritis. This can lead to your spouse or partner needing to change plans in order to rest. It’s something you must get used to – and never take a “no” personally. “A spouse or partner of someone dealing with psoriatic arthritis must be able to provide both social and emotional support,” says Dr. Sarmad Almansour, Internal Medicine and Rheumatology specialist at Detroit Medical Center's Sinai-Grace Hospital.
Just because there's still no cure for psoriatic arthritis, doesn't mean there's no treatment for it. Many treatment options exist to manage pain and stop inflammation, which helps prevent further joint damage. It OK to have low-energy days, but you're in control of how you relate to the disease. You might find it helpful to talk with other people with psoriatic arthritis on online forums, such as the National Psoriasis Foundation's message boards.
A chronic disease like psoriatic arthritis, which comes with many side effects, can be extremely stressful for the person with the condition and their partner. To manage this stress, Dr. Almansour says it's vital to stay on top of the disease and be transparent in their communication. “Support and communication can help to anticipate assistance in daily activities as well as to avert more serious issues like early signs of depression,” he explains.
According to the National Psoriasis Foundation, people with psoriatic arthritis are more likely to have depression and anxiety than people with psoriasis alone. A 2014 studyrevealed that 36.6 percent of participants with psoriatic arthritis had anxiety, while 22.2 percent had depression. However, another study published in the journal Rehabilitation Psychology in 2014 found that support from a spouse or partner helps people with psoriatic arthritis avert early feelings of depression. Provide a sympathetic ear and encourage your partner to share their feelings.
“Someone with psoriatic arthritis will have good and bad days, high and low moods, and bouts of intense fatigue in addition to chronic pain,” says Dr. Almansour. This makes even simple everyday chores, like getting dressed or cooking, very difficult. A partner should always be prepared to step in and help if needed. If you need extra help with the chores or your children, consider hiring a cleaner or a babysitter to help ease the pressure.
Mornings can be particularly tough for people living with psoriatic arthritis as joint pain and stiffness may be more severe at that time of day. “The only thing that helps improve those symptoms is devoting time to loosening up and stretching the joints,” says Chirag Shah, M.D., board-certified emergency medicine. By giving your spouse extra help with children, housework, meal preparation, and other organizational tasks in the morning, they can spend the necessary time on relieving discomfort.
Most people with psoriatic arthritis don’t want to draw attention to their condition when they’re out in public or socializing with friends. You can help your partner avoid embarrassment and unwanted attention by being aware of when they’re overwhelmed or in pain, acknowledging this without highlighting it to others, and having an excuse ready – besides psoriatic arthritis – if you need to make a quick exit.
Many small, simple items can make life with psoriatic arthritis a little easier, such as an electronic can opener, a lightweight mug with a large handle, a one-touch binder, a hands-free computer mouse, and lightweight cleaning tools. Be supportive by not questioning your partner's desire to purchase these things. And if you really want to show you care – and are thinking about your partner and the challenges they face every day – buy them for them.

A common question with a PPC (Pay-Per-Click) campaign, such as Google AdWords, is why bother bidding on search terms where a site is also ranking well organically, including on your own brand name? This is a fair concern, but often PPC and SEO can work together effectively and still create an uplift in clicks to a website from the search results.
Back in 2012 Google published some research that indicated that even with a top ranking organic result, the presence of a paid listing as well can increase clicks to the site by 50%. So incremental clicks from search can increase by half the amount again when using Google AdWords, plus if the organic results are lower, the incremental growth in clicks is higher – by 82% with rankings in 2-4 place, and 96% if ranking 5th or lower.
Now you might think that Google would report that wouldn’t they, as the results favour the use of AdWords, which is Google’s cash cow. Also the layout of the results have changed since that time, with AdWords listings becoming more prominent for most commercial searches these days. However, the conclusion can also be tested by advertisers and, as long as AdWords remains a cost effective marketing technique, it’s certainly worth running the ads alongside the SEO rankings to increase overall clicks to your website.
Many people say that they would never click on the ads in the search results and just the organic listings, as they trust Google’s rankings more than any position paid for by an advertiser. Whether that’s the correct assumption or not, having an ad appearing above an organic result does give a company more chances for a click to their site, plus the branding impact from the domain name appearing several times could also help, with searchers seeing that business as a likely answer to their search if they are visible several times.
Bidding on your own brand name may be less of a necessity, unless there are other AdWords ads that are targeting your brand or generic terms related to your brand that show above your organic result. Bids on your own brand name tend to be low cost and you can also get some good information from the search query report in AdWords about how people have searched for your business, but again, using AdWords for this purpose needs to be cost-effective and relevant to the searcher, and ensuring you get the click to your site through either method.
There’s a feature in AdWords that allows you to track how your site appears in the results for both paid and organic search results, so you can see the overlap or gaps. We’ll be covering this report in some more detail in a future issue of this newsletter.
If you’d like any further information about the overlap in search results and the best strategy to follow for your business, please contact us now for a discussion.

It seems as though I have forgotten my password for Mobirise simple website creator.
I was using 2.5 things were working pretty well.
I then updated to ver 2.61 and all photos went to so large size and most of them pixelated on me.
Was wondering if you were going to do a updated soon with something in it that a person can have more control over photos, like even just resizing them but it would be nice to also to be able to place it anywhere in your photo box.
Would also be nice to be able to add a second photo.
And also create my own blocks and reuse them.
It’s a nice builder and I’d to keep using it.
I’m into page 40 with about one hundred to go.
I've uploaded the site to a test place for now.
The problem I've having is under the Pioneers section.
You can check the photos, they are grainy.
Don't know if it's me or something else.
I think I've figured out my problem.

Hm.. It shouldn't cause this issue. Could you export your site and send us the folder in .zip? Go to Site Settings to find this feature. Check the screenshot attached.
Well I'm still using your software to build my new site. I'm still having problems with my pictures. As soon as I place one them in your preformatted holder the photo blows up to that size or even larger.I have also replaced photos as the original just won't work at all because photos just pixelate.Is there an optimal size the photos should be.I'm getting mine to about 50Kb.I've got the site up in a test place for now and have noticed that the pictures are slow are do not show at all.It could be my service as I'm on a Satellite Dish and maybe to much latency.
Wish I had more control on photos other than that so far so good.Nice product.
Please tell what OS do you use. Also please give screenshots and the image which is shown pixelated.

I've replaced a lot of shots and still working on it.
I'll get thru it, it seems to work not bad.

If you use images of small size they will be always stretched.
The program crashed again today a couple times. It was when I went to publish the site to my hard drive, maybe I've got many pages as I'm up to 103 pages now.
I'm using your Contact form page and tried it out but the mail never gets to me, is there a problem?
Unfortunately the app can crash if you have too many pages. Have you set your notification email?
I'll be stopping at 105 pages I guess.
My notification email has been set to my e-mail address from the beginning and it's not going into my spam box either.

This AquaRain review will discuss AquaRain as a water solution because there are many people deciding not to drink municipal water.
People are motivated to do this because there are lots of new reports showing that locally supplied tap water is full of all sorts of things. This includes everything from chlorine, drugs, heavy metals, pesticides.
Sometimes this can be due to pipe failure, flooding or even contamination. Water contamination can be deadly because of organisms like bacteria, E. coli, giardia, cryptospordium and others. Some of these pollutants that routinely appear in public water can cause serious illnesses and even death.
One way to avoid all of these is to use a water filter system like AquaRain.
The AquaRain Model 400, for example, is a two-stage gravity water filter. This consists of an upper and lower chamber, lid and 4 ceramic filters.
This article will review AquaRain and see if all the claims add up. By the end of this review you will be able to decide if this water filter system is worth it.
How does the Gravity Filter AquaRain 303 work?
The Aquarain 303 is a water filter system made from polished stainless steel. They work as gravity filters i.e. they work by water going to the bottom of the filter because of gravity. The stainless steel material has hygienic properties which helps inhibit bacterial growth.
The AquaRain 303 removes contaminants through its patented ceramic filter. This 303 Aquarain model works through 2 tanks arranged one above the other.
To use, you simply have to fill up the upper tank with water. That’s it. Gravity pulls the water down through the cartridges. Once the filters have done their work, you simply need to dispense your fresh clean water.
Great for emergency situations and emergency preparedness. This is because the Aqua Rain 303 can filter water from most untreated sources without using electricity.
High quality ceramic filters. The patented filter technology is unique in terms of quality, service life and filter performance. Each filter can last for years and are manufactured in a computer-controlled oven that is individually tested.
Safe clean and healthy drinking water while the filters last.
This is an environmentally friendly device in the sense that it does not use electricity.
Better tasting water. This is because the filters don’t just remove contaminants but also eliminate bad taste and weird smells.
Filter replacement indicator. Aqua Rain is the only gravity-fed water filter that tells you the ceramic filters need replacing.
Made in the USA. This is great for people that want to support US manufacturing and jobs. Especially as each and every part of the Aqua Rain including the ceramic filters, water spout and stainless steel covers are made in the USA.
It can filter up to 10,000 gallons of water.
No, it’s not certified to remove fluoride but it deals with a lot else.
Yes, there are fluoride reduction elements but it’s not certain by how much.
However, AquaRain ceramic filters are able to eliminate around 99.9% of the three major biological organisms that are typically responsible for causing diseases.
They are viruses, bacteria and cysts.
As I’ve said several times, these are all excellent water filters. But the Alexapure gets the job done at a fraction of the cost of the other systems.
And to help you run those numbers, below are the current prices on Amazon.
Keep in mind that the Alexapure Pro is nearly always priced to include only ONE filter, the Propur Big is commonly priced with 1 OR 2 filters, and the Big Berkey is usually priced to include TWO filters.
Also the Alexapure filters are usually sold separately, while the others are usually sold in pairs. You’ll have to do some of your own homework here and run the numbers.
It’s the longest running, has the best reputation, and probably filters water faster than others.
However, it requires much more filter changes than the others. If you do not need or do not want the extra fluoride / arsenic filters, the Alexapure will be highly competitive.
The 304 model comes with a lifetime warranty, which is very impressive.
Most expensive water filter on this list.
While the long-term costs are still very low, they are much more expensive than a Alexapure at a regular price.
Here are some reasons why it might be worth getting an AquaRain filter.
Less need to consume water bottles.
If you are like most people and compulsively buy bottled water. This can cost a lot of money over time and create a lot of landfill waste. Yes, buying a water filter like AquaRain can cost a little more upfront. However, it’ll save you money in the long run.
Better than basic standard charcoal filters: Charcoal filters.
It is very good at dealing with a lot. However, these benefits are vastly compounded when you combine this with multiple levels of filtration. Especially as the Aqua Rain comes with patented ceramic filters that meet the USEPA (United States Environmental Protection Agency) standards for the removal of cysts and bacteria.
Many people who are interested in moving away from tap water do so because of the taste. Tap water usually tastes horrible. This is especially the case if your tap water is supplied by a local municipal supplier. However, Aqua Rain filters use both silver and granulated activated carbon (GAC). The result of this is that it makes the water taste better. This is important because bad tasting water affects the quality of food and even hot drinks like tea and coffee.
One of the biggest concerns of people that rely on tap water is the safety of their water.
However, using a high quality filter system like Aqua Rain means you no longer have to worry about contaminated water.
AquaRain can remove everything from cysts to bacteria that is present in your drinking water.
Unlike many water filters for drinking water, this device doesn’t need or use electricity to filter. This means that you can use it for emergencies and it’s very portable. It is therefore ideal for places where electricity is limited. For instance, RV holidays, going for a picnic, in small houses and even while camping.
It’s also good for emergency situations outdoors. For instance it can filter raw water from streams, lakes, flood water or well water.
No, I don’t think the AquaRain is the best ceramic water filter.
Although it’s a great water filter option, there are many other options that offer similar or better value for money.
The most popular and best selling gravity water filter is Berkey.
Another good option is AquaTru that “promises to turn any type of liquid into water”.
Alternatively, brands like Aquasana offer a popular Clean Water Machine. The clean machine is very powerful, works very quickly and has a removable pitcher that can fit on the inside of your fridge.
I also recommend the Clean Water Machine because it’s much cheaper and there is also the opportunity to get it even cheaper with coupon code AQGEEK50. Using this code gives you up to 50% off and FREE shipping on select items.

More than 700,000 people in the United States received organ transplants over the past three decades—an incredible number considering that just 60 years ago, it was virtually impossible to transplant tissue without it being violently, and usually fatally, rejected by a patient’s body. (The only successful transplants up to that point had been between identical twins.) It wasn’t until 1958 that Tufts professor and hematologist Robert S. Schwartz made them feasible by uncovering a medical means for suppressing the human immune response.
Schwartz and Dameshek noted that under a microscope, the immune response involves a proliferation of cells—one that bears a striking resemblance to leukemia—and wondered whether it might be possible to chemically suppress it. Schwartz then contacted two pharmaceutical companies for samples of antileukemic drugs to test on rabbits. The first drug he administered, 6-mercaptopurine, suppressed the animals’ immune response, and Schwartz recalled “dancing in the lab” with a research fellow when they saw the evidence.
Schwartz and Dameshek then co-wrote a series of papers in 1958 and 1959 definitively showing that using 6-mercaptopurine to temporarily shut off the immune system response at the time of transplantation could stop organ rejection. Their research quickly spawned other studies, with researchers in the U.S. and England using the drug to successfully transplant skin and kidneys in dogs and other animals.
“It’s unusual to see a discovery have so much impact, to see a breakthrough change practice so profoundly for the better,” said John K. Erban, M81, a professor at Tufts University School of Medicine and the clinical director of Tufts Cancer Center. In 1962, doctors performed the first human kidney transplant using a deceased donor, and the first liver transplant followed a year later. In 1967, a heart transplant was successful.
In 2000, the Transplantation Society awarded Schwartz its Medawar Prize, the field’s highest honor, and his outsized contributions to transplantation were also mentioned in two Nobel Prize speeches. And Schwartz didn’t stop at transplantation: In the 1960s, he applied his chemical immunosuppression knowledge to fight autoimmune disorders. Schwartz died last August, but the lessons learned from his research will live on in the treatment of cancer and other diseases.

Back from Florida... eye gook gone thankfully!! I got two knitting books while I was down there. Simply Noro by Jane Ellison and Cornelia Tuttle Hamilton Book 1. I love sooo many designs in both of them! My favorites are Earnshaw, Agnes, and Jabes from the Simply Noro and from the CTH book I like Vendela and Sundby. At the knitting shop I went to (Dunedin Needlepoint and Knitting) they had some blossom and I really wanted to get some for Eloise. But unfortunately (or fortunately, depending how you look at it) they only had five skiens. Oh well! Maybe some other time! Now I'm just trying to decide which one of those I want to do. I'd love to do Earnshaw, but it takes a lot of yarn! It just looks so yummy and cozy. Maybe for christmas? :) Well, not much else!! Have to finish cleaning it looks like a bomb exploded in my house!! Yikes!!
P.S. I turned 30 on monday. 30! I just couldn't tell you where the past 10 years went!!

I remember sitting with my husband at home on New Year’s Eve 2017. Our running joke is that we always proclaim the coming year will be the one we slow down and smell the roses. Well we decided this year was going to be different, and 2018 was going to be the year we kept that promise.
Well, as they say, life always has other plans, and 2018 was no exception. The year started with a new job for my husband, new childcare for my kids, and a new ulcer for me (thank you stress).  As we began to find our feet in our new routine, the biggest challenge of the year came the Big C; Cancer. After months in and out of the ER and countless tests and doctors’ appointments, my Mom was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Like many people, cancer is no stranger to my family. My Mother had lost her father to lung cancer and eight years ago lost her husband to leukemia. Cancer also took my grandmothers well before their time. Although we were expecting the news with my Mother, the report wasn’t any easier to hear after a long tragic relationship with the disease.
The thing about cancer is that it just doesn’t invade and take over your body. It spreads throughout your life and the lives of everyone around you. Cancer is a ruthless disease that takes more than modern medicine to beat; it takes an army. An army of friends, family, volunteers, and people around you to care for, support and get you through a long and challenging journey to health. For my Mom, that army came in the form of a group of the most headstrong and stubborn women I’ve ever met, my aunts and my sisters. The breed of women in my family is a unique group of the most headstrong women you’ve likely ever met. And this group of women wasn’t going to let my Mom fight alone.
Within two weeks of diagnosis, my Mom started a six-month regimen of Chemotherapy. We wanted to be sure my Mom never had to go through a treatment alone. While we all lived in different cities presented its challenges, but we all came together to take turns both attending the medication and doctors’ appointments, and my Mom would then return to one of our homes to recoup.
In November my Mom had her final chemotherapy treatment, and we were all there to celebrate and ring the bell alongside her. We also received the best Christmas gift of all to find out that her body responded better than any of us could have hoped, and she was in remission.
When I look back at the past year and the journey my Mom’s been on, I feel blessed; an odd word to associate with the Big C. I learned throughout it all just how lucky I am to have friends and family that when chips are down indeed rallied around each other for support. I also learned what truly matters and that it’s not about how successful you are, or the having all the fancy “things,” but about the life you live and the people you live it with.
As we enter 2019, I value the lessons 2018 has given me but most of all the people I have around me. My Mom still has a few hurdles to overcome but I know we will get there, one day at a time.

Mexican cacti have captivated the scientific community due their extraordinary characteristics and benefits.This research established a new way to use this ancestral plant as a substitute for other construction materials that given their industrial and technological processes have -in several cases- skyrocketed their costs, besides of being a constant hazard for the environment. Thus, by looking back how ancestors used to solve their construction needs, it would ultimately allow us to find better ways to protect the environment. Production process is analyzed; experimented with it; and its prominent characteristics analyzed derived from Opuntia ficus-indica extract combined with other natural materials to be then used it as a waterproofing material.
Cacti are thoroughly found all across the Mexican Territory. In the mountain ranges, and sierras. The cactus known as Opuntia ficus-indica grows naturally in the State of Mexico. Cacti have been used for millennia for multiple purposes. From culinary, to art involving other materials such as calcium oxide and salt. There are about 300 different species of cacti around the globe. About 100 are found in Mexico. Extensive research has been made and often, new and innovative uses are discovered. This paper features another use for Opuntia ficus-indica: Waterproofing on building surfaces exposed to the elements (i.e. Sunlight and humidity). This paper shows the process involving six stages using Opuntia ficus-indica combined with different natural materials were experimented with, and tested by evaluating their unique performance.

Def JamQ-Tip has teamed with Wolf Of Wall Street co-stars, Leonardo DiCaprio and Jonah Hill, to develop a scripted TV series, which will be produced through DiCaprio’s production company, Appian Way.
According to Deadline, the drama project will be based loosely on the Grammy-winning rapper’s experience as a member of A Tribe Called Quest during the Native Tongues era. The series will also illustrate how their Afrocentric music transformed the hip-hop culture in the late 1980s and early 1990s and ultimately influenced today’s music.
Q-Tip, who is longtime friends with DiCaprio, started the group in 1985 when he and his friends Ali Shaheed Muhammad, Phife Dawg and Jarobi White were in high school.
While there is no writer attached, the untitled series is expected to be shopped to networks in coming days.

Port Constructor is a MicroGame, wherein the player engages in missions each taking 15 to 20 minutes to play. Each mission starts with a short strategy and several action rounds. In Port Constructor participants develops and manages a port planning project.
The aim is to optimise three equally important value drivers: people, planet and profit. On the basis of a baseline strategy, the participant chooses between a variety of functions to be placed or removed in the port area taking into account how neighbouring functions influence each other, positively or negatively.
Target group for this serious game are students, as well as professionals to better understand how to balance trade-offs, assess long term impact of port development decisions and manage stakeholders.
With Port Constructor the developers aim to achieve the following learning objectives.
First objective is for the participant to gain knowledge over decision processes in the context of port development and management.
Secondly, the game aims to develop a better understanding of spatial occupation and spatial planning required to match supply and demand for space for port expansion.
The third objective is for participants to develop better insight into the long(er) term consequences of port planning, development decisions, both for people, planet and profit.
Ultimately, with this game the developers aim to stimulate a holistic, multidisciplinary thinking with (direct and indirect) stakeholders in relation to port and port-city development.
The game design is built on both practical and theoretical knowledge and understanding from port developers, educators and scientists. By means of a digital game, the game developers have initially decoupled port development and management concepts from its context, thereby taking a conceptual perspective on port development and management. The second stage of development was to define archetypes of ports, basic port functions as well as provide an overview of port dilemmas.

Originally composed by Georges Bizet as an opera, Carmen has been regularly performed as a ballet since Roland Petit first premiered his company’s adaptation of the work in London in 1949. Drawn from Prosper Mérimée’s 1845 novella, Carmen depicts the dangerous, ill-fated romance of protagonists Carmen and Don José. Certainly, the writing seems to be on the wall when the two first meet, as Carmen seduces the guard Don José into releasing her from arrest for a petty crime.
Whipped into a frenzy by her incredible beauty, Don José allows himself to be sucked into her machinations, ditching his fiancée and becoming drawn into Carmen’s criminal plans. Ever mercurial, Carmen’s affections shift to the toreador Escamillo, leaving Don José desperate to possess her once more, at any cost. Ballet San Antonio’s production features choreography by the company’s former First Soloist and Cuban International Choreographer Yosvani Cortellan.

When I signed up to be an adult, no one told me all of the nuances and responsibilities. I think that perhaps a handbook should be formulated to let you know that one day you may have to make decisions that, in the long run, are best for people but that, in the short time, will piss them off and alienate them. ‘Cause if someone told me that, I would have stayed 17. Forever.
I’m not the person that you consult if you don’t want the true answers that you are hiding from. I’m not afraid to confront you if you are doing something that is harmful-emotionally, physically, psychologically.
I’ve had to do this with my friends. I’ve had to do it with different family members. What is going on right now is the most difficult situation I’ve ever found myself facing. And that includes my mom having cancer. Two forms of cancer. One of which was STAGE 4.
You see, I’m protective of those I love. A hungry lioness has nothing on me. I’ll tear out your throat and not think twice. My protective nature is exponentially higher when it comes to my niece and nephews.
So, I had to make a stand to protect my niece and nephews. In doing so, I may have alienated my best friend…the only person who’s been my friend all of my life. I’m a wreck right now. But I know, in the long run, I did what was best for the kids. And for her. And for my parents.
But…my heart aches. My heart aches because one of the most beautiful, funny, smart, loving, caring women I know is being deceived by someone who doesn’t like her at all. He likes himself, and he is using her to get what he wants. He is sweet talking a naive, broken woman into believe that he loves her. He is making empty promises that will be broken. One day he is going to burn in hell. Because boys like him don’t change. They just find new victims.
All I can do right now is pray. Because God is bigger than anything. Bigger than the air I breathe.

And in Mongolia I returned to the ol’ ‘hostel’ experience. Which I have to say, was pretty bally splendid! It’s been a long time since I can say I stayed in a place that was good in so many aspects as ‘Zaya Hostel’, in the Mongolian capital of Ulaan Baatar.
Firstly I was met by a friendly driver at the train station after a long train ride from Beijing. Which is a nice way to start because really after more than 24 hours aboard a train it’s great to have an easy way to make it to your hostel.
I had pre-booked through their website, and was staying at ‘Zaya Hostel 2’. I went with a ‘single’ room (but it was also a double) as dorms are no longer what I’m looking for. Believe me, the way I snore, I am doing many people a favour there! The original Zaya Hostel (number 1) I didn’t get to see, but we did swing by there on the tour I did, and it’s not as central as number 2.
The hostel is on the second floor of a (mostly) apartment building. Arriving in a temperature of less than 5 degrees, entering the building was an experience because it was very warm in there. In fact, it seems policy in ex-Soviet countries to heat you interiors to the maximum level imaginable. Thank god for windows is all I can say. Basically, it seems the policy is – if you are inside, you should only need a t-shirt and shorts.
Incredibly warm and welcoming owners/managers there. So much time for their guests to talk about tour possibilities, Mongolia, and politics and anything else I cared to chat about as well. Had me signed up on a tour to Terelj for the next day with an overnight in a ger (yurt/tent) and actively looked for others to go so I didn’t have to pay the whole thing myself. Also – I had booked for four nights but when I booked the tour he took off the night I wouldn’t be staying at the hostel which he was under no obligation to do.
$US30 for my room per night, and it was very spacious and as nice as any room I would have in Russia, Mongolia or China. Lovely big bed, nice bathroom, and the whole place was extremely clean. I had an issue with the shower head but I told the manager and he replaced it straight away.
A couple of nice common areas, one with a giant TV. Two kitchens, one for staff and preparing breakfast and another for guests’ use. I took advantage of that. Met a few other guests as well when doing it.
Located just off ‘Peace Avenue’ which is the main drag. Five minutes from the State Department Store (very nice, not nearly as ominous as it sounds!) which has a big supermarket inside. Buses run up and down the road and you’re only a couple of stops from the main square. If you like walking quite a bit of Ulaan Baatar is reachable by foot. There is no shortage of taxis either.
All in all, this is an excellent base when you are in Ulaan Baatar, with plenty of information and help at hand. It’s warm, clean and extremely comfortable and friendly. Loved it!
I loved that goofy State Department store! I bought groceries there, and I even found some flip flops upstairs (lost mine at the airport somehow). Did you see the Beatles statue near there?

MINOT, N.D. - The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) today demonstrated the screening process at Minot International Airport (MOT) for passengers who are eligible for TSA Pre✓®.
TSA Pre✓® is an expedited screening program that allows select flyers departing MOT to leave on their shoes, light outerwear and belt, keep their laptop in its case and keep 3-1-1 compliant liquids/gels in a carry-on bag. Three airlines that serve MOT – Allegiant, Delta Air Lines and United Airlines – participate in TSA Pre✓®.
In order to receive TSA Pre✓® on a consistent basis, travelers who are U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents can enroll in one of four Department of Homeland Security Trusted Traveler programs. For information on the programs that include TSA Pre✓® eligibility, visit dhs.gov/tt. Individuals enrolled in NEXUS are already eligible for TSA Pre✓®.
Local residents can sign-up for TSA Pre✓® and Trusted Traveler status at Northern Testing, located at 3108 S. Broadway, Suite E in Minot. Enrollment is offered Tuesday and Thursday from 8:00 a.m. to11:30 a.m.
Interested travelers can begin the enrollment process online and schedule an appointment by visiting universalenroll.dhs.gov. Click on the words, “Get Started.” Applicants are required to make an in-person visit to an enrollment center to verify citizenship or immigration status, as well as to provide fingerprints. Walk-ins are also accepted. There is a nonrefundable application processing fee of $85.
Once approved, passengers will receive a Known Traveler Number (KTN) making them eligible to utilize TSA Pre✓® lanes on a consistent basis at airport security checkpoints nationwide. Travelers are encouraged to save their KTN in their frequent flyer profiles. Additionally, those who purchase their tickets via a third-party website or travel agency should manually enter their KTN each time they make an airline reservation. NEXUS cardholders should use their PASSID as their KTN. Children 12 and under are permitted to use the TSA Pre✓® lane when traveling with a TSA Pre✓® eligible parent or guardian.
All members of the U.S. Armed Forces, including those serving in the Reserves and National Guard, are eligible for expedited screening without enrolling in a Trusted Traveler program. They do not need to be in uniform when using the TSA Pre✓® lane and they can use it while on personal or official travel.
Members of the Armed Forces can use their 10-digit Department of Defense number located on the back of their Common Access Card as the KTN when making flight reservations. Eligible individuals should also update their Defense Travel System profile for official travel.
Earlier this week, TSA began offering TSA Pre✓® benefits to flyers departing Dickinson Theodore Roosevelt Regional Airport. Residents of Dickinson and neighboring areas can enroll in TSA Pre✓® at Badlands Integrity Group, located at 366 21st Street E in Dickinson. This location is open Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
As always, TSA continues to incorporate random and unpredictable security measures both seen and unseen throughout the airport. All travelers will be screened, and no individual will be guaranteed expedited screening. To learn more about TSA Pre✓®, visit tsa.gov/tsa-precheck.

Event four of the Beech House Dental Practice Evening TT League took place on the 12-mile Penny Pot circuit. Riders were battling a headwind from the off, before turning left towards Norwood, then left again to enjoy a tailwind up Broad Dubb Road. Left again into Beckwithshaw, then a careful descent of Pot Bank before the final climb back to Penny Pot Lane and the checkerboard finish sign.
In the ladies event, York Cycleworks’ Jess Bacon continued her record-breaking winning streak, powering home to complete the circuit in 29:15, ten seconds quicker than the time she posted on her last visit to the course in 2013. Nova’s Corrine Mitchell was second with yet another lady-veteran course record of 31:01; Alison Sarmiento was third with 32:50.
In the men’s event, after his second place last week, Duncan Mullier bounced back to reclaim top spot, and the Triangle Trophy, winning with a time of 26:26. The ride of the night though belonged to Prologue Racing Team’s teen sensation Dylan Flesher who smashed the junior record to record a sensational time of 26:56 in second place. Glen Turnbull, Patron, was just one second behind in third. Tom Denwood placed fourth with 27:03 and Pete Watson, Performance Coaching, was fifth with 27:15.
Mike Hudson was the best placed Vet-50 with a time of 28:49; Mike Bowman was the best placed Vet-60 for the second week running, recording 32:47. Ollie Bevis was denied the honour of fastest on a non-specialist machine this week by brothers Josh and Bobbin Gardner. Josh, Chevin Cycles, recorded a very respectable 29:00 to finish fifteenth overall; Bobbin, Prologue Racing Team, stopped the clock at 30:06 and Ollie 30:24.

Martin Shaw and Richard Pennock claimed bronze-standard. Gary Marks had his day spoilt by a snapped a rear mech. Al Mitchell was left to catch a taxi back to Grassington after sheering off three chain ring bolts near Fremmington with wife Corrine forced to take a detour back along the shortest route in support.
In open time trials, Walter Wilkinson recorded 22:42 in the first round of the Team Swift TT League on the 10-mile V718 course near Hull.

Enjoy the best inspirational, motivational, positive, funny and famous quotes by Aaron Copland. Use words and picture quotations to push forward and inspire you keep going in life!
Mozart in his music was probably the most reasonable of the world's great composers. It is the happy balance between flight and control, between sensibility and self-discipline, simplicity and sophistication of style that is his particular province... Mozart tapped once again the source from which all music flows, expressing himself with a spontaneity and refinement and breath-taking rightness that has never since been duplicated.
You compose because you want to somehow summarize in some permanent form your most basic feelings about being alive, to set down some sort of permanent statement about the way it feels to live now, today.
Someone once asked me... whether I waited for inspiration. My answer was: "Every day!"
You may feel depressed, but it can't be so depressing that you can't move. No, I would say that people create in moments when they are elated about expressing their depression!
For me, the most important thing is the element of chance that is built into a live performance. The very great drawback of recorded sound is the fact that it is always the same. No matter how wonderful a recording is, I know that I couldn't live with it--even of my own music--with the same nuances forever.

Home Health What If My Medical Packaging Is Defective?
It’s frustrating to receive shipments of medical products back that have been deemed unsafe or unfit for sale due to packaging failures. The cause can be something that is not easy to detect. It’s times like this that the value of professional and expert medical product package testing is most obvious.
Medical packaging can fail for many reasons. It can be due to faulty packaging processes, poor materials, ineffective seals, or failed design. Finding out that your packaging will not stand up to shipping, shelving, and storage can prove costly. Having tons of product sent back that can no longer be placed on the market is a waste of resources and lost revenue.
You’ll need to have your current packaging fully tested to find the exact cause of failure. It might seem obvious, but there can be lurking problems that only professional testing can find. It’s the best way to find a starting point and determine how to move forward.
Ultimately, you’ll need to have an expert medical packaging consultant help you come up with a different design, or materials choice to create packaging that meets the rigors and requirements of the market. You can get the advice you need that will produce the results without any further delays in getting your products out there to the consumers.
Any new package designs should be put through the same rigorous testing to ensure it’s the solution. All types of testing can be done to simulate transport, storage, temperature variances, or vibration. You can even have leak detection and artificial aging processes tested successfully.
The goal of medical package testing is to come up with answers when there are problems, monitor processes for problems, and develop solutions when there are troubles. Invest in professional packaging testing any time you suffer a setback due to packaging failures.
