Two stage evaporative coolers are a relatively new addition to the family of alternative cooling appliances. The advantage two stage coolers have over conventional, single stage models is the production of cool air with 10%-30% less humidity (depending on your climate). The stages of a two stage cooler are described as “indirect” for the [...]

"Swamp" is an Animated Screensaver by EleFun Multimedia devoted to the nature theme, namely, to the swamps. A small swamp is hidden behind the impassible thickets of the tropic jungles. By sight it is an ordinary water basin overgrown with water lilies. But look at it more attentively... This small world is just humming with life! Frogs, dragonflies and even a furious viper closely coexist near

We ended our Up, up and Away in Pampanga tour with a trip to the Candaba Bird Sanctuary. It was a long drive through rough roads. While the bus was entering the area, several flocks of birds were making their way towards the trees. Sadly, it was getting dark and we didn't see as much birds as locals said there were days before since many of the visiting birds had already started their migration home.Related entriesWandering around the Candaba Bird Sanctuary

The New York Red Bulls announced their schedule along with the rest of Major League Soccer today. Of paramount interest (at least to casual fans or the general public) is of course the July 19 visit of David Beckham and the L.A. Galaxy. That game will once again take place on a mid-summer Saturday night (last year was Aug. 14, if memory serves).Other home dates of interest: New England visits Saturday, April 19, which is the third weekend of the season. D.C. United comes to town Saturday, Aug. 9, defending champion Houston Dynamo on Sunday afternoon, Aug. 24.Ten of the team's home games take place on Saturday night, four on Sunday afternoon and the obligatory one on Thursday night, which is exactly the same as last year. But the team's three home dates in April are one more than last year,

As the presidential campaign intensifies, so does the nativist ferocity. THE IDEA that 12 million illegal residents of the United States can be induced to quit the country en masse within four months is absurd on its face — a non-starter in logistical, humanitarian, political, diplomatic, commercial and economic terms that would leave an indelible stain [...]

Dc Comics isn't exactly known for these wilder comics, but for fanboys who are in the know, Vertigo is an offshoot of DC comics and arguably is doing better than the DC universe when compared to the Marvel masterpieces that are being dealt out from time to time. The Legacy of Swamp Thing covers nearly 200 pages of graphic novel goodness, collecting the original issues into one easy to read paperback. I actually enjoy this series because the artwork and covers are really well thought out, and the interiors are a throwback to the golden era of drawing and inking. Just look at the previews! This isn't photoshop gradient heaven as Marvel is releasing. You should check this out, and why not start at Vol. 1? For less than $15 you can pick this up by clicking here.

Swamp Cooler - How To Pick The Right Size To Really Cool A RoomBy: Cooper MillerThe swamp cooler is becoming more and more popular as a cost effective way to cool or an automotive shop. They do not rely on the standard refrigeration process in order produce cooler air. A typical swamp cooler uses good old fashion evaporation to cool air in a room. This evaporation process is both energy efficient and easy on the environment. Swamp coolers have been used for decades in dry, desert climates where they work the best, but you will also see these units behind the benches of your favorite football team in those hot September months. Auto shops have also started using them as an inexpensive way to keep their shops cooler and mechanics more productive. However, there may be some confusion on how they operate and how to select the correct size swamp cooler.The temperature of air coming out of an swamp cooler obviously depends on the temperature and the humidity of the air going in.

My dad drove up to Waycross from Tampa on Friday. That in itself is a long drive; the last time I did it, I took an hour and a half nap in my car in a rest area. But he didn't just drive any old thing, he drove up in his new Harley. I can't imagine seven hours one way on a motorcycle, although perhaps that's why I drive an Echo. The two little boys who live next door for me, and who are usually completely fascinated by me and everything I do were overwhelmed with interest in my dad and his motorcycle:I feel bad for these kids. They are so sweet and super cute, but I don't think anyone pays any attention to them whatsoever. Their family is incredibly poor, and the mom seems much more interested in her boyfriends (she has at least two) than in her three kids (she has a toddler, too). The kid on the right has some kind of speech defect and/or learning disability, but I suspect nothing is being done about it. We asked if they had a football, but all they had was a flat basketball, so l

Obviously, Brian K. Vaughan has had some creative writing classes. Unimaginative ones. He pays homage to them in Swamp Thing #3, an atrocious done-in-one set on a crabbing ship. The issue opens all right–Tefé keeps trying to get her narration right… until Vaughan reveals it isn’t Tefé narrating, but one of her shipmates, a young writer writing a chapter in her voice. Taken under those conditions–the narration being for a novel and not a comic book–it’s terribly written (a big problem with the story is it’s never clear whether or not the writer is supposed to be bad… I mean, I think he’s a complete douche bag, but I also think writing a story like this one is the act of a douche… so iit’s unclear). I mean, to continue the paranthetical free of the curved lines, if the guy’s just a shitty writer who goes crazy then it’s just about a crazy guy… if it’s about an author… well…. B

Marcelo Chimirri, photo: Revistazo.comUpdate on article: Chimirri resigns, Hondutel raidedMarcelo Chimirri's future is looking brighter. The head of the state-owned telephone company disappeared after his home and office were raided by government officials last Friday morning. Calling in to a Honduran radio show that same day, he expressed his outrage and indicated that he would resign from his government position. Chimirri also stated to the media that if he had been at home, he would have used gunfire against the authorities to defend his family.He most recently has been accused of abuse of authority and telephonic espionage. The wiretapping charges relate to 12 taped telephone conversations between President Mel Zelaya, other high level functionaries of the Honduran government, and Chimirri, which have since been posted on YouTube by user JuanaPueblo.Prior accusations have included involvement with grey traffic, unwarranted raids of businesses and illegal confiscation of their equi

Relaunching Swamp Thing has proved quite the pickle for Vertigo… unless Warner Bros. manages to turn it in to a successful action movie starring Vin Diesel as Swamp Thing and Emilio Estevez as Alec Holland, I think the franchise is going to be dormant for quite a while. I’ve got a lot of love for all the Swamp Thing series and I can really appreciate Brian K. Vaughan’s take on it. He’s stuck with following up Millar’s impossible large ending to the series–Swamp Thing holding on to the damn planet–and he manages to bring it down real fast, real well, moving the setting to a high school with the Swamp Thing connection muted (for the first issue anyway). He has a nice bit of narration from Abby, surprising characterization… very well done first issue to restart a franchise (something Andy Diggle later did poorly). However. I read the first two issues because the first issue ends with things in motion, figured the second issue would continue it. To some ex

It was clear what Steve Nicol's game plan was tonight: sit back, let Bruce Arena's team control the tempo, take the counters if they come but more importantly keep the dangerous Red Bull attackers out of the Revs 18 yard box. Mission accomplished. Despite dominating the run of play, the Red Bulls had few legitimate goal chances outside of the game's first 20 minutes. They truly impressed me during that opening period, and I'm sure an early goal would have changed everything. Unfortunately, there just wasn't enough from the attacking midfield. How many times this season have I seen Dane Richards dribble down the flank to lose the ball into touch or turn it over? Too many to count. Altidore looked lost in left midfield. Arena said after the game that it was Jozy's preference to play there and that he was playing as a forward most of the time anyway. Well, great, but who was supposed to get him the ball? Altidore's presence was sorely needed in the Revs penalty box as well. Arena a

Although Joseph Szadkowski, the comics and games columnist for the Washington Times, let me down at least a year ago when he went out of his way to gloss over Identity Crisis, I suppose there is something to consider in this article he wrote about Grant Morrison's Batman and Son story, which involves a son he had from his liason with Talia al-Ghul: Mr. Morrison takes readers on a scattered

Continuation of Swamp of corruption in HondutelNote: all links to articles or websites are in Spanish unless otherwise indicated.What does the author of the investigation say?Robert Carmona Borjas, Executive Vice President of Arcadia Foundation and author of the undercover Hondutel investigation, admits that he did sign a contract with Hondutel but says that the U.S$44,078 charge was an "arbitrary and suspicious act of crude extortion." (No explanation was given as to why two different amounts are given − Marcelo Chimirri of Hondutel said it was US$25,352.) Carmona Borjas said that the Hondutel bill was undocumented. According to his company's contract, Hondutel is required to give the time, dates, duration, and destination numbers of the calls, and that in no manner does this bill represent the correct amount. He also says that Hondutel has not cut the service of other companies such a Latinode, IPIP, WorldWide, Identidat Telecom, Metrocom, Huntington, and KDDI, who owe Hondutel a

Continuation of Swamp of corruption in HondutelWhat do the actors in the Hondutel grey traffic scandal say?Leónidas Rosa Bautista, (Eng.) Fiscál General (Attorney General), is the top man in charge of the investigation. He has been accused of detaining investigations of celebrated corruption cases. Within the Fiscalía's office, former attorneys in charge of Organized Crime and Anticorruption have been transferred to the training or consumer divisions or have even left the country after being, what some say, a little too successful in their investigations.On September 11, the Ministerio Público announced that all investigations would proceed in secret and that they won't divulge any information about the case. The Fiscál Contra Corrupción, Henry Salgado, announced that they would solicit information from Arcadia and, "if necessary," take a declaration from Rosenthal. (Secret investigations − the best friend of corruption. Out of sight, out of mind.)On September 13, Chimirri an

Crocodiles: They are always smiling, aren't they?Robert Carmona Borjas, Vice President of Arcadia Foundation, confirmed that he has a report which will prove that high-level government functionaries and businessmen are involved in a multi-million dollar fraud against Hondutel, the Honduras government-owned telephone company. Tráfico grís (grey traffic) is the name for long-distance calls which through technology are recorded and billed as local calls, reducing the income received by Hondutel. Fraud from grey traffic is estimated to be between 15 and 20 million minutes per month, representing a loss of US$1.5 to 2 million to Hondutel, and the Honduran people, each month.Note: all links to articles or websites are in Spanish unless otherwise indicated.On September 8, 2007, a respected Mexican newspaper, El Universal, printed an exposé of the swamp of corruption surrounding Honduras' state-owned telephone company Hondutel. The investigative report was prepared by Arcadia Foundation,

Yes, I know... Billie Swamp Safari isn't in Miami--it's actually a bit of a drive. But it's important for city folk to venture out into the countryside (which in Florida are the Everglades' swamps) and reconnect with nature and an alligator or two. Also, I just figure this blog will have lots more interesting content if I include things outside of the immediate Miami area, but within driving distance. There is only so much sand and concrete a girl can take.Well, Billie Swamp Safari was a blast to visit. It's a great, unique way to spend the day: there are walking trails on a boardwalk over the water, airboat rides (the absolute funnest thing), swamp buggie rides (this would be great to get around Miami traffic!), shows, animal enclosures, and you can even spend a night in a Chickee for about $35 (I didn’t do that, but I plan to soon!). What's a Chickee? It's a raised platform hut with some cots. No air conditioning or running water here.Other things I did that day... ate allig

I decided to share this video for a few reasons: 1. It features Storm Shadow version two and he rocks harder than ninja Elvis. 2. I’m running out of good ads for the moment, so if anyone wants to mail me magazines or comic books with awesome toy ads that would be fantastic. 3. There’s enough flashing lights and sounds in this G.I. Joe commercial to give a blind, deaf kid a seizure. Yo Joe! toy, toy collecting, G.I. Joe, commercial, advertisement, Hasbro

It doesn't occur all that frequently that I run across something involving nature photography that I have absolutely never heard of before in any way whatsoever. Recently, on several other blogs that I read, I was drawn to some gorgeous abstract images that, as it turned out, were photographs of swamp oil. Now here was something totally new to me, so I had to read on. I also thought it would be great information to share with others who might not be familiar with it. First, though, take a look at these marvelous images by Mike Moats and Mark Graf, here and here . Reading their blog entries, one learns that the colors in the photographs are not able to be seen by the unaided eye, and that the light must be polarized in order to make the colors visible. The shapes and colors in the images are caused by swamp oil, which apparently is an oil that seeps into water from decaying plant matter. Never having heard of it, I certainly have never seen or photographed it, but it is
