Went in for the 50 - 70 percent sale and WOW, surprisingly found a great mix of trendy and classic fashion deals. So much so that my sister and I brought our mother here to pick out her birthday outfits. The ladies there knew their stuff and were fabulously prompt at juggling size, color and style requests.

I bought a Jackie O style smock dress, a tunic top and sexy sequined tank for less than... more

Watch your wallet or they'll scam you.

I would never recommend this Spa. My wife, mother and friend went there this weekend to use a gift certificate. When she booked the appointment she told them she received a gift certificate for Xmas and they told her they had a great promo on - buy 2 and get 1 free.

After the appointment they told her "oops, you can't use the gift certificate for the promotion".. Which meant they had to pay for all three people

WHAT A TOTAL SCAM!!! Not only will never recommend this spa to anyone, we will tell everyone we can about how they scammed my wife and ruined a great Christmas gift.

My appointment was at 1:15 and ended up being taken at 1:40. The desk people offered others drinks, but not me or my friend. The appointment seemed very rushed. The worker was very critical and a little on the rude side. I phoned, and the worker told me a wash, style and cut was $50 and ended up being charged $63 plus I had to give a tip. Overall, not very satisfying.

Facebook to Pull All Ads from Pages with 'Violent, Graphic, or Sexual Content'

Josh WolfordSocial Media

Share this Post

Starting next Monday, if you operate a page or group that contains any violent, graphic, or sexual content, you're going on Facebook's blacklist for ads.

In an effort to assure advertisers that their ads will no longer appear next to any unsavory content, Facebook is going to vastly expand the list of ad-restricted pages and groups.

"For example, we will now seek to restrict ads from appearing next to Pages and Groups that contain any violent, graphic or sexual content (content that does not violate our community standards). Prior to this change, a Page selling adult products was eligible to have ads appear on its right-hand side; now there will not be ads displayed next to this type of content," says the company.

It's not really clear how many pages and groups this will affect - Facebook has a pretty strict policy on sexual content. But there's obviously enough pages that fall into this Facebook grey zone to warrant such a move.

Facebook says that they are already vigilant in protecting marketers from possible bad PR situations, but that this will help them be even more effective.

"We know that marketers work hard to promote their brands, and we take their objectives seriously. While we already have rigorous review and removal policies for content against our terms, we recognize we need to do more to prevent situations where ads are displayed alongside controversial Pages and Groups. So we are taking action."

The review and removal process will start slow - real life humans will make the decisions. But in the near future, Facebook says that they will develop an automated system to make sure ads no longer appear next to this questionable content.

This move is likely a response to the choice by some advertisers to yank their campaigns from Facebook after some of their ads appeared next to misogynistic content.

Just earlier this week, Google announced that they too would be restricting ads that service adult content blogs on their Blogger platform.

Basic Analysis

Google™ Pagerank

Pagerank      0/10

PageRank between 0-3 means that either you have a new website or that you have very few backlinks coming in. To correct this you need to invest more in advertising and try to partner up with other brands that offer products or services of use to your customers.

ãBuy Facebook Likesã - ã100% REAL Likes From REAL Humansã

The title of your webpage is more than 70 characters long, the title should be precise and appropriate to the content of the page.

Meta Desc

Buy Facebook Likes that are the highest quality on the net. We have many other services including: Twitter, Youtube, Instagram, and Soundcloud marketing.

Great that you have a Meta Description tag, this is generally what users see on search engine results when they find your page.

Meta Keywords

buy facebook likes, buy cheap facebook likes, get facebook likes

Although they are ignored by Search engines these days, doesn't hurt to have them on your website.

Good going, DocType will help your website render correctly on older-gen web browsers and well the bane of our existence Internet Explorer.

Again this helps in rendering special characters, it helps users and your SEO score as well.

Making the Search Engine aware of the language of your website increases readability of your webpage. Kudos here!

  • Eliminate render-blocking JavaScript and CSS in above-the-fold content
  • Leverage browser caching

soundcloudfollower.com favicon http://www.buy-cheap-likes.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/imagesuiuiui.jpg

Great that you have a favicon, helps identify your website in bookmarks, tabs but has no impact on SEO.

URL Analysis

Your URL's are perfectly formed, no need to change that.

Gzip Compression

Sure thing, this will help your page load faster, reduce wait time and possibly increase pageviews.

Domain Age and Validity

Your domain has already expired.

Consider registering your Domain for a longer duration rather than on a year-by-year basis.

HTML Code Analysis

You should incorporate more textual content in your website, but if your website is not content based then try to focus on the little content that you have to make it keyword rich and matching in context to your webpage.

Its great that you are using proper headings on your webpage, it gives structure and also becomes more readable to the search crawler.

Your webpage contains 17 image(s) and out of which 14 don't have alt attribute.

An ALT attribute represents information about the image if it is not available or till its loading. It is a good practice to have an ALT attribute associated with all images, it helps in SEO as search engines can't see the image but can read the TITLE and ALT attributes.

Tutorial 17: Shady Characters - HTML with Style | 5 | WebReference

Tutorial 17: Shady Characters - HTML with Style | 5

Tutorial 17: Shady Characters

Numeric character references

Numeric character references use a number to refer to a character in the document character set. As we saw earlier, HTML's character set is UCS. There are two ways to use numeric character references. One is to use decimal numbers and the other is to use hexadecimal numbers. Here are some examples:

å or å is the latin letter "a"
with a circle above it.

И or И is the Cyrillic letter "I".

水 or 水 is the Chinese character for water.

As you can see, numeric character references start with an ampersand and a hash mark (&#), are followed by a number in decimal or the letter "x" and a number in hexadecimal, and are ended with a semi-colon (;).

å or å is the latin letter "a" with a circle above it.

И or И is the Cyrillic letter "I".

水 or 水 is the Chinese character for water.

If you don't see what you expected to see above, don't worry: numeric character references are nice, but they do have some serious niggles: First of all, if you're using Netscape Navigator or an older version of another browser, you probably won't see the hexadecimal references displayed correctly. This is because many older browsers don't recognize the hexadecimal syntax. For this reason, you should generally avoid the hexadecimal notation until its use becomes more wide-spread. The reason it is included in the specification is that most character sets, including UCS, list characters in hexadecimal in their specification, so it should be easy to look up a character in the specification and just insert it into your document. But, to be on the safe side, use a scientific calculator or something similar to convert the number to decimal.

Also, many older browsers do not properly understand character references with respect to the character set, and attempt to interpret them according to the character encoding. This is another source of confusion for people trying to understand the difference between character set and character encoding (or, you might say, a result of many programmers not understanding said distinction; but I digress). This should not be a problem with this document, as it uses the UTF-8 encoding that covers all of UCS, but it might be a problem if you where using an encoding that did not cover, for instance, the Chinese character for water used in the example above.

Another reason that you may not view the above characters correctly is if your browser does not have access to a font that contains glyphs (images) for these characters. Your browser might understand that the above entity stands for the water character, but be unable to display it. If this is the case, the browser will probably display a question mark or a blank box in place of the character. This is usually not much of a problem; usually, if your audience is expected to be able to read a document containing certain characters, they'll probably have appropriate fonts.

And before you start whining, another reason the above characters don't work for you might be that I speak no languages that use them, so I may have gotten them wrong. In this case, I apologise and welcome criticism on the matter.

In general, numerical character references can cause a lot of trouble with browsers that are not properly internationalized. The best solution is to avoid them and use characters from your selected character encoding instead.

Beach Inspired Photoshoot

By Melissa

I’m so thrilled to have Rebecca from High Culture: Wedding & Special Events Inc. as a guest blogger to share her recent photoshoot experience in collaboration with some of Edmonton’s best vendors. First off, I must say, the set is oh-so creative, and secondly, it’s seriously got the coolest wedding cake ever. Here’s what Rebecca had to say about the photoshoot:

- – -

Last Spring, I decided to play matchmaker for the first time and to my delight, simply a year later, while on a beach in Mexico, two of my wonderful friends became engaged. In the midst of planning their beach wedding as well as mulling over the final days of Summer, I came to think that as Fall and Winter approach, many couples dream of a warm and bright sunny wedding day; therefore, destination weddings are often considered. It is important to realize that not all destination weddings are on a beach; however, here, as we face the bitter cold of Winter, ‘destination’ is most often associated with a sandy beach.

From here, I was inspired by a piece of decorative glassware that I have which was created with recycled blue and green glass. The colouring and texture of the glass brought me to the majestic waters of the sea. The colour selection for this stylized shoot and lack of seashells and palm leaves did not bring about a typical beach theme. Instead, I chose to play with the concept of texture, glass, and other beach inspired debris.

I have the honour and the pleasure of working with so many fabulous people in the wedding industry. This was the first stylized shoot of this nature that I have developed and I am truly impressed with the results. I was utterly thrilled and absolutely in awe of the efforts of my colleagues.

Below are some absolutely fabulous photos – as you peruse, I hope you are filled with warmth.

Jenelle of Pinkpolka Wedding Design is so passionate about creating a signature wedding design through elegant and beautiful coordinating stationery. I love floral design and in keeping with the colour selection and beach inspiration, I asked Jenelle to create a design with unrestricted strokes of watercolour in a floral inspired pattern. As soon as I saw the design, I fell in love – it was perfect! In order to create a cohesive look through the stationery, this design was replicated in every detail.

I cannot say enough about Erik of Erik Hornung Photography. He is an incredibly talented photographer and to watch him shoot was more than interesting. Erik is exceptionally conscious to every detail – he captured our designs so perfectly!

One of the first things that couples tend to think about when considering the element of décor are the linens. Katherine and her extraordinary team at Elegant Touches are an absolute pleasure to work with. They had perfect satin and organza linens to suit our colour selection. We even created a water-like backdrop through the use of organza overlays – I love the texture and depth!

Décor isn’t complete without florals (or, at least that’s what I think!). I didn’t want the florals to be overwhelming and large nor did I want them to be constrained and symmetrical. Instead, I opted for a freer look and wanted various plants arranged loosely in different vases. I gave Kristi at Off Whyte Floral Studio this concept and as always, she impressed!

I am a huge admirer of the work of Amy Atlas who creates gorgeous sweetscapes. After becoming inspired by Amy’s work, I wanted to convey through a series of stylized shoots that the element of décor should be cohesive throughout the entire wedding. Not only should your wedding or event style be shown within your reception tables but also throughout the entire space to create an unforgettable atmosphere!

We went one step further and asked brilliant cake designers Gloria & Guenter of The Art of Cake to take the design from the stationery and replicate it in the design of the cake. In fashion with Amy Atlas, it was only suiting to create a full sweetscape of other delicious desserts. The Art of Cake also went beyond my expectations and created an elegant and fun look throughout the sweets and even came up with interesting beach inspired names!

– – –

Feel inspired? Be sure to check out Rebecca’s blog for even more inspiration. Oh and expect to see more from her in the near future as I know she has a lot of other projects in the works!

WAR Scheduling change Update

Remember this? Well, I have spent my afternoon playing WAR doing World RvR. So I guess that change will start tomorrow? ;)

Today's Heavy Metal quest was to kill 15 players in World RvR, so this may have lead to the surge in activity.

I know the feeling, I've tried to do the same type of thing as well. It was mainly when I had multiple MMO's going, and trying to make sure I spend adequate time with each so I don't feel like I am wasting money!

I had some of the most fun yesterday in oRvR as well. As in...nearly 6 hours of non stop fighting (T3 Brettonia server). I guess it's enough just to get people out there and once things get started they continue because I had completed the live event in the first 30 minutes...I have to believe most others did as well...yet the fighting continued. There was at least 3 warbands per side by the end when I finally had to log off for some sleep. Quite the fun time :)

Cranes disrupt traffic, peck at cars in Melbourne

MELBOURNE, Fla. - Two sand hill cranes have been disrupting traffic for days in Melbourne.

Their original nest was moved, but the birds still won't leave the corner of NASA Boulevard and Evans Road.

WFTV reporter Melonie Holt said one of the cranes has been pecking at cars, just trying to get by.

"I'm an animal person. I don't want them to get hurt and they're going to. It's inevitable," said resident Sandy Wilmath.

Drivers tried to avoid the crane as he pecked away at their vehicles. Others tried shooing the bird back to safer territory closer to his mate.

Florida Fish and Wildlife told WFTV the birds built a nest near the intersection.  It was moved in the hopes the birds would move too. Instead, the cranes began rebuilding their nest.

"It's nature. We're taking over their space," said resident Amanda Roth.

The female crane has an injured leg and Florida Fish and Wildlife said she's in need of rehabilitation.  The agency is working with a trapper to temporarily remove her.

The bird's mate will stay behind. But, wildlife officials hope he'll calm down once there's no longer a need to protect his nesting mate.

November 08, 2007

Hillary Clinton keeps surprising us.

Hillary Clinton--who WAC? predicts will start picking up increasing support from moderate Republican women (and some men) in two key states--is doing well these days. NBC/WSJ poll: "Clinton Holds 20-Point Lead Over Rival Dems". Still very, very early. Like a friend once said: "This is America--no one wins the nomination without a couple of near-death experiences."

Let the excitement begin – this week, the next instalment in the Fifty Shades of Grey series, Fifty Shades Darker filming starts in Vancouver. Two other features and two TV movies also start this week, read more below.

Fifty Shades of Grey 2: Fifty Shades Darker (Feature)
It’s been a year since the first film in the Fifty Shades of Grey franchise was released in theatres. It was an instant success, holding the record for best performing box office results for a Friday in February with $30.2 million… that is until Deadpool (which also filmed in Vancouver) shattered that record this past weekend with $47.5 million.

The next instalment in the 3-part series based on the best-selling novels written by E.L. James, Fifty Shades Darker, was originally anticipated to start filming in June of last year and was expected to be released in 2016. Last March, it was announced that Sam Taylor-Johnson, the director of the first movie, would not be returning for Fifty Shades Darker or Fifty Shades Freed. In November of 2015, it was announced that James Foley would be taking over the director’s chair. James is best known for directing the classic Glengarry Glen Ross and more recently, several episodes of House of Cards.

After many further production delays, filming finally gets under way in Vancouver this week and will continue until July 12th. Interestingly, scenes for both Fifty Shades Darker and Fifty Shades Freed are being done during this time. Traditionally, there’s a larger gap in production between follow ups. With the high demand and difficult scheduling of everyone involved, it’s not surprising to see they’ve chosen to go this direction.

Filming for the first movie took place throughout December 2013 to February 2014 with some additional photography and reshoots taking place in October 2014. SOME of the locations from the original are listed below, but check out, a great resource for more information.

Location Scene

Fairmont Hotel Vancouver Heathman Hotel, photoshoot and elevator scene
Coal Harbour Seawall Christian’s waterfront running scene

Culture Secretary Maria Miller has reiterated her belief that philanthropy can plug funding gaps in the arts following the publication of a report examining "ways to unlock the potential of philanthropy".

Titled Removing Barriers, the report comes days after Nicholas Hytner and Danny Boyle hosted a conference at the National Theatre to discuss the difficulties faced by regional theatres in the wake of government spending cuts.

The report's author is Roland Rudd, chairman of the Legacy10 campaign to increase charitable giving in the UK.

Welcoming Rudd's findings, Maria Miller said: "There is enormous potential for the arts to benefit from philanthropy over the next few years, and we need to look at new ways of unlocking it. Although income from the National Lottery is set to rise significantly now that we have restored the shares of proceeds going to the original good causes, other avenues of potential funding need to be considered. The economic climate means that philanthropic support for the arts, especially through legacies, will be ever more important in the years to come."

Removing Barriers, one of three reports into philanthropy commissioned by the Government (two are still to be published), recommends ten steps to increase philanthropic giving in the arts (see below).

Miller, who also acts as Minister for Women and Equality, continued: "Some of our arts and heritage bodies have built great relationships with their supporters in this area, but for all that, only seven percent of people currently leave a legacy in their will. And too many companies and organisations in the arts and heritage world still have no legacy giving scheme in place. So, they need to get better at asking for this kind of support. I want many more cultural organisations to benefit from legacies, and we will be happy to help make this a core element of greater giving to culture across society as a whole."

But many are sceptical whether philanthropy will be able to provide adequate relief for the swingeing spending cuts, which have seen the Arts Council's budget slashed from £449 million to £314 million a year. During last week's regional theatre conference, National Theatre artistic director Nicholas Hytner dismissed Miller's policy as "wishful thinking". He told "Private money follows public money. Philanthropists want to get behind success stories, not dig people out of a hole."

Roland Rudd's recommendations:

  • All three main political parties should agree a "non-regression" pledge in their 2015 manifestos which commits them to leave the existing Inheritance Tax reduction for legacy-giving untouched until the 2020 Parliament and beyond.
  • The Government should create a charities "tsar" to review and streamline policymaking on charities across Whitehall Departments. The review should also include the duplications inherent in the charities sector and suggest new structures where appropriate.
  • Secure a commitment from key advisor organisations to compel their members to raise philanthropy, and in particular the Inheritance Tax benefits of legacy giving, when discussing tax planning and will writing with their clients.
  • Companies in the FTSE-250 should be persuaded to provide financial advice and assistance to any employee who wants to make a pledge to charity in their will.
  • Government should implement targeted tax breaks for giving as a way of creating lifetime donors who will later leave a legacy. This should include a cut to the top rate of income tax for those who agree to make a planned, minimum period financial commitment to a charity.
  • Government and Charities should jointly: Oversee and create an online iTunes U training programme, made available for free to all legacy fundraisers across the UK; and plan a virtual legacy-giving academy to help share best practice in this area
  • Every registered charity in the UK should be required by the Charity Commission to provide evidence in its annual report of a legacy-giving strategy and the current income level from this activity.
  • People nominated for honours in the field of business should need to provide firm evidence of charitable giving and/or volunteering of time. Related to this, there should also be more honours given for philanthropy.
  • A new award should be created and supported by the Government, recognising the contribution of individuals who have shown exceptional innovation in the field of legacy-giving.
  • The organisations that Arts Council England supports should demonstrate philanthropic fundraising, including legacies.

Tableware Shopping at Noritake, Sri Lanka

Tableware Shopping at Noritake in Sri Lanka

After our tour of the spice and herbal garden (Read: Spice & Herbal Garden Tour in Sri Lanka ), and a sumptous lunch, we headed for some tableware shopping at Noritake . Noritake’s factory outlet at Matale,  some 45 min away from Kandy, was our final stop before we proceeded to Kandy. For those who are not aware of what Noritake is, the company deals in one of the best and most expensive porcelain products in the world.

Jayanta, who is ever so fond of cooking and likes to serve his dishes in appropriate crockery, had been lusting after a set of Noritake for a long time. Which is why we stopped by the factory outlet near Kandy after our guide told us that the rates are better here than those in Colombo, and that there would be greater variety to choose from.

Well, it’s a big place with good parking facility and an expert packaging and sales counter. From the look of it you can tell that they are used to overseas visitors. Spread across a sprawling unit, this factory outlet of Noritake keeps dinner sets, tea sets, servings bowls of all shapes and sizes, coffee mugs and tonnes of other items. You almost, once again, get carried away, and think every piece of porcelain available there is probably what you need of life!!! Well, that bad is the binge!

We had enough luggage capacity, and so, we didn’t contain ourselves – got a full blown 32 piece dinner set, a tea set and a few serving plates. All these in two big cartons that they packed so swiftly and so nicely, that they stayed safe in our van for the remaining six days of our trip and then, the flight back to Mumbai.

The prices are extremely reasonable for the stuff that you are buying. Go and shop if you love your food and are particular about the crockery in which they are served!

With this, we resumed our drive to Kandy. Read about it in Drive from Habarana to Kandy, Sri Lanka

  • Poonam

    Just came across your blog on tripadvisor and was very happy to read the same, we are planning a trip to Sri Lanka in end November and I am also very passionate about cooking and crockery. I have heard a lot about Noritake shopping in Sri Lanka and am very excited to visit the same during my trip. I have no idea about the prices though, can you please tell me approximately how much did it cost for a 32piece dinner set in INRS or LKR,if you dont mind.

    • WOOF Post author

      Hi Poonam,
      Thanks for writing in. Well, you get all ranges there — they start from the basic INR 15,000 levels to those that go into lakhs. We went to the factory outlet near Kandy. They had a decent collection. And cater to all price ranges. We bought quite a few things. Even got a few pieces for gifts to family and close friends.
      Hope this will help.

I have a terrible feeling the Sox will be handing the division directly over to Detroit on Thursday. As is tradition.

Glad to see the win, but c'mon 3 runs?

Wisair Announces 531 Chipset

By Jeff Goldman

July 19, 2005

This new release puts 480Mbps WiMedia-based ultrawideband only a few months away from showing up in products.

Last week at Wireless Japan 2005, ultrawideband (UWB) solutions provider Wisair released its second-generation CMOS-based MAC/Baseband System-on-a-Chip, the Wisair 531. According to the company, the chip is now ready for use in Wireless USB, wireless IP and wireless video applications, and complements Wisair’s recently-announced Radio Frequency (RF) chip, the Wisair 502.

Together, the 531 and the 502 form Wisair’s first complete UWB chipset solution, supporting short-range connectivity at speeds of up to 480 Mbps. The company says the solution offers the fastest WiMedia-compliant wireless chipset to date.

“This is a large step toward providing mature wireless USB products that meet market demands,” says David Yaish, Wisair’s president and CEO.

Amir Freund, the company’s vice president of marketing, says more than 40 customers already have the reference designs and development kit, and devices should start shipping with the chipset by the end of the year. “Right now, we are building all of the required facilities for production, so that by the end of the year we will be able to start manufacturing the quantities that are required by our customers,” Freund says.

The 531 is the company’s second-generation MAC/Baseband chip – it replaces the Wisair 530, which was released in October of last year. “We managed to do a lot of optimization in both this chip and the RF chip,” Freund says. “We reduced the die size significantly, and we reduced the external components that are required for the chipset.”

The development of the 531 and the demonstration at Wireless Japan, Freund says, comprised a major step forward for the company, attracting interest from a wide variety of vertical markets.

“It’s very significant in terms of the capability to provide a working 480 Mbps solution which is based on the MBOA/WiMedia standard – and in terms of the ability to start enabling real devices in the market,” he says.

Freund says Wisair, which has 65 employees and offices in Israel, Japan, Korea, Taiwan and the U.S., is now focused on developing specific reference designs for a wide variety of applications. The company will make further announcements regarding those designs, Freund says, in August at the Intel Developer Forum in San Francisco.

How to Install a Car Alarm in an SUV

Community Q&A

SUVs are large, powerful vehicles that can hold their own if they get into a physical accident. However, against a thief, they are just as susceptible as any other car. If your SUV didn't come with an alarm, you may want to protect your investment by installing a car alarm of your own. If you're unsure how to go about doing that, here are a few steps on how to install a car alarm in an SUV.

  1. 1
    Gather information regarding your SUV's paneling and wiring. In particular, you will want to gather as much information as you can about your vehicle's specific wiring colors, the locations of those wires, and the wires' polarities. Knowing these things beforehand can save you a lot of time and frustration mid-installation.
  2. 2
    Study your vehicle design alongside your car alarm's installation manual. You will need to know how your specific car alarm interfaces with your SUV. Plan out the installation locations and wiring routes beforehand in order to save time later.
  3. 3
    Check your SUV for any problems before beginning installation. In particular, make sure that your doors trigger the "door ajar" light on the dashboard when they are open. In the case that a door does not trigger the light, there is a good chance that the door won't trigger the car alarm.
  4. 4
    Remove the necessary panels in your vehicle depending on the vehicle model and your car alarm model.
  5. 5
    Look under the hood of your SUV and choose a location for the placement of your car alarm's siren. Once you have a suitable location, mount it securely according to the instructions specific to your car alarm. You can find those instructions in the car alarm's manual.
  6. 6
    Look around the interior of your SUV and locate a suitable mount area for your car alarm near the dashboard. Try to install the car alarm in a hidden place.
  7. 7
    Wire the valet switch, LED light, and external antenna that come with the alarm. All of these alarm component wiring instructions should be included in your car alarm manual. Make sure you pay attention to where the wires should be cut or altered.
    • It is strongly recommended that you test wire polarities before making connections.
  8. 8
    Connect the car alarm power wire directly to the vehicle's battery under the hood.
  9. 9
    Install the car alarm's shock detector and door lock mechanisms. The car alarm manual should explain how to do this, but the wiring can grow tricky at this step. If further assistance is needed, it is recommended that you contact a technical advisor.
  10. 10
    Replace the panels in your SUV.
  11. 11
    Walk through your car alarm's testing instructions in the manual. If you encounter any problems with the alarm, troubleshoot them as soon as possible.

How to Keep Guppies Healthy

Community Q&A

Guppies are the most common freshwater aquarium fish and they have unique pattern and colour which make them beautiful. Sometimes guppies die just after purchase without any apparent cause whereas in some cases they live up to their lifespan. Without proper attention and care it is nearly impossible to maintain healthy guppies for your aquarium . Here are some instructions which may come in handy on keeping your guppies healthy.

  1. 1
    Take proper care of the aquarium providing home to the guppy fish. Cleaning the guppy tank once in a while can get rid of most of the diseases and parasites that affect the guppies. Changing water regularly may help them to last longer without getting affected by diseases. Can you even think of a moment living under unclean surroundings? Guppies too cannot survive under such unclean conditions. Though it's best to change aquarium water after every fortnight, make sure you at least replace it with fresh water when it starts to get cloudy or when it gives foul smell .
  2. 2
    Minimize the fluctuations in water quality. Even though Guppies can adapt to minor fluctuations in water quality, try to make non-stressful water changes to maintain the health of Guppies. Alkaline and warm water conditions can also be considered. The perfect temperature for an aquarium sheltering guppy fish are about 72-80 Degree F.
  3. 3
    When you introduce new guppies into a tank, they may carry many bacteria and parasites along with them , which can infect other fish in that tank. Therefore the best solution is to release them in a separate tank and watch them for over a month to see whether they are carrying any pathogens .
  4. 4
    Create a home like atmosphere for your guppies. If you can keep a guppy happy, this will be reflected in its health also. Try creating a friendly atmosphere by fixing more plants and by giving it enough room. The size of the tank should not be too small as it would make the fish feel uncomfortable. Adding coloured rocks and dead crushed coral might give pleasure to your guppies and also make your aquarium eye catchy.
  5. 5
    Feeding is another most important factor which you should keep in mind while taking care of a Guppy. They can be fed twice or three times a day but make sure that you don't overfeed them. Supply them with their favourite food which include frozen and the flake foods. Ensure you do so, especially when their babies are in the aquarium because in the absence or scarcity of food, they are known for eating their young ones.
  6. 6
    Check the equipment. Aquarium consists of lot of components such as pumps, filters etc. which are installed for the life support of fish. Malfunction of any of these components may greatly affect their health and therefore it would be best to clean them occasionally.
  7. 7
    Test the pH of your water. pH is a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of a solution. If the difference of pH in your water and the water of the breeder you purchased from is more than .3, the fish can become stressed. If you are quite inclined to purchase a guppy from a tank with high pH difference, gather some water from the store and also add your water into the tank till the fish gets used to your pH.

Add New Question
  • How many guppies can I keep in a 75 liter tank?
    wikiHow Contributor
    Start with one male and 3-4 females, and let them populate the tank. Make lots of hiding spaces for fry to hide.
  • Do real plants make the water bad for guppies?
    wikiHow Contributor
    On the contrary, live plants make the water healthier for them. The more live plants, the better. The plants provide hiding places and help filter the water.
  • Why do guppies skins go pale after giving birth for the second time?
    wikiHow Contributor
    Because giving birth stretches their skin, so it goes pale for a while afterwards.
  • Can I keep a guppy in a bowl without aeration?
    wikiHow Contributor
    Yes, but be sure to perform partial water changes at least once per week. It is, of course, better to provide aeration.
  • Do the females get stressed with the males always chasing them?
    wikiHow Contributor
    Yes they do. Remember to keep a ratio of one male guppy for every 2-3 female guppies.
  • Can guppies and neon tetras live together and eat the same food?
    wikiHow Contributor
    Yes, they may live together and eat the same food.
  • What does a pregnant guppy need in the aquarium?
    wikiHow Contributor
    A pregnant guppy needs food and a separate container to keep the fish fry away from other adults in the tank.
  • Why do my males chase each other when a new male is added to the tank?
    wikiHow Contributor
    Male guppies are always in competition when there is another male present in the same tank. Try to limit it to 1 male guppy per 1 square foot area.
  • Why do guppies chase each other?
    wikiHow Contributor
    It's usually the male chasing the female.
  • How many baby guppies could be born at once?
    wikiHow Contributor
    Between 2-200, depending on the size of the female guppy and how many times she's been pregnant.

  • For an aquarium homing guppies, pH level from 7.0 - 8.1 can be considered as healthy .
  • Unless you live somewhere where the temperature never gets cool, even at night, you need a heater in the aquarium. You also should have a thermometer just to keep watch of the temperature, and ensure it's safe for the fish.
  • For breeding guppies, the temperature should be about 78 degrees Fahrenheit.

Together with Ruby & the Romantics (“Our Day Will Come”), the Tymes were practitioners of the “lounge soul” subgenre, which flourished briefly in 1963. This quintet’s hits, “So Much in Love” and “Wonderful! Wonderful!” (a version of Johnny Mathis’ 1957 chart debut), pioneered an airy sort of R&B-lite which the group effortlessly replicated on a klatch of standards covers and originals. The same finger-snaps-and-“ooh-we-ooh” arrangements animate “Somewhere,” “Wonderland of Love,” and “The Lamp Is Low.” “Chances Are” revisits the Johnny Mathis catalog, while “Here She Comes” bumps up the rhythm to a mid-tempo Impressions gait.

A fairly mature lambquarter plant in a small patch

Lambsquarters are a delicate and delicious spinach like green that grows in disturbed soil, such as ground that is tilled for a garden. It can be found all over US.

A grainy feeling flower head forms on the inner part of the stems of mature plants. Smaller plants can be harvested, cooked and served on the stem, or eaten raw.

Remove the leaves from tough stems, and remove the buds if they are formed, before preparing.

The nutritional value of lambsquarters exceeds that of spinach.

lambsquarters smoothies
by: Nelson

Why spend money on spinach at the store? Go into your yard and gather the ingredients for a nutritious power smoothie! I just made one with lambsquarters, mulberries. I did add some store bought stuff like ginger, kiwi and ripe bananas. Then I like to grind flax seed, hemp seed, pumpkin seed and add in as my homemade protein powder. The seeds are the only fat I eat in my low fat vegan diet. Sometimes I add coconut water in addition to the filtered water I get from the local organic produce store. Enjoy!

Lambsquarters Soup
by: Stumpjumper

For several generations we have been adding this plant to just about any kind of soup. It is easily picked as a "weed" in most gardens. Really adds a great flavor and nutrition to the soup.

more about Lambsquarters...

You can also gather and harvest the seeds of lambsquarters.
They can be added to stews as well as dried and made into flour along with other wild seeds.
This plant contains more vitamins, minerals and such then most green leafy vegetables cultivated domestically including spinach.
You can steam it like spinach, if you have a cholesterol problem and it will quickly end your problem.

If you dont want to grind the seeds into a flour you can just throw the seeds (along with other edible wild seeds such as the seeds from plantain as well as the larger grass seeds) into some boiling water and make a breakfast cereal.

Just so you know...ALL grasses and seeds are edible but some are just not as good for flour or cereal as others. If you eat grass as you walk swallow the juice but spit out the leaves and stems as they are too hard to digest in that form..however you can use them in small amounts after juicing at home. Just remember they are practically ALL fiber and go very sparing so you dont get bound up.
The tiny white parts where the grass connects to the roots is also edible as are the ends of the inner stems...and good to add into soups etc.

Habiturf®: The Ecological Lawn

Turfgrasses have a wide range of applications: roadsides, parks, corporate campuses, golf courses, utility rights of way and residential lawns. But they’re often villainized as requiring high levels of nutrients, water and maintenance. In 2007, Wildflower Center researchers decided to put turfgrass to the test. Five years of research demonstrated that select native turfgrass species can replace the traditional lawn without requiring lots of water and pesticides. The result is fewer weeds, less fertilizer, less mowing and the ability to provide habitat — in other words, the ecological lawn. Center researchers were so pleased with these grasses’ performance they developed a seed mix based on their findings. The resulting Habiturf® is a blend of Bouteloua dactyloides (buffalograss), Bouteloua gracilis (blue grama) and Hilaria belangeri curly mesquite). It establishes quickly and, best of all, conserves precious resources once established. It does especially well in the dry regions of Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico and Arizona. Although Habiturf is a mix of species, its grasses have almost identically shaped leaves and color, producing a great-looking, even-textured lawn that does well in full sun (see this how-to for detailed growing instructions). A dense and attractive native turf, Habiturf is soft to the touch and comfy on bare feet. And it compares favorably to non-native turfgrass species in its ability to thrive with minimal watering and mowing. Habiturf® can be purchased directly from our Store or from Douglass King Seeds.
