Why Is My Salt Water Pool Cloudy?In Feburary 2016 26,
In Feburary 2016 26,
Heavy use, such as hosting a pool party, can lead to cloudy water in your pool. Sunscreens, soaps, shampoo residue and other foreign substances can build up in the pool and cause the water to lose its sparkling clear appeal. Although a saltwater system uses a chlorinator to transform the salt in the water to low levels of chlorine, a higher dose may be required to burn out these elements. Using a chlorine shock treatment after heavy use will likely take care of the problem.
Dirty Filter
Pools keep debris and other impurities out of the swimming area by sucking the water through the skimmer and into a filtration system that traps the impurities in sand or another filtration device. This process is identical to the one used in freshwater pools. When the filter becomes clogged and dirty, it is unable to filter out all of the impurities and allows much of it to reenter the pool through the plumbing, which can cause the water to get cloudy. Backwashing is the solution to this issue. Backwashing means reversing the pump and causing the water to wash back through the filter where it ejects the impurities from the pool through an outlet on the exterior portion of the pool.
pH and Alkalinity
If your pool's pH level is not within the acceptable range, the water can become too acidic and become cloudy or dull. The same applies if the alkalinity of the pool is not within the preferred parameters. According to the GLB Pool and Spa website, a saltwater pool should be tested regularly for pH levels and should be maintained within the range of 7.2 and 7.8 on your test strips or water testing kit. Using pH up or down additives will adjust the pH as desired. Alkalinity should be between 80 and 120 parts per million.
Algae
While algae is not as much of a concern in saltwater pools as in freshwater pools because the salt does not provide a friendly growing environment for the algae, it can occasionally be a problem. Algae can cloud water or even turn it green. Lots of algaecide products are on the market to control this problem.

How to Host a FundraiserIn Feburary 2016 19,
In Feburary 2016 19,
Pick a theme. Before holding your event, choose a theme that will represent your cause. If you're raising money for an international adoption, bring in food and decor from that country. If you're trying to raise funds for a charity, come up with ideas that tie into your cause. Even the invitations or fliers should reflect the theme of your event.
Create a budget. Remember that you're trying to raise money, so you are going to have to work within a pretty tight budget. Ask vendors in your area if they would be willing to donate food, raffle prizes or other items for your fundraiser. Some may not have anything to donate but will give you money towards your cause.
Prepare a menu. Depending on your cause, you need to choose between a casual menu or a formal dinner. Some great fundraisers have featured a barbecue, while other successful events have included a 5-course meal. Since you are working within a limited budget, your menu will depend largely on what you can afford to spend. You can have an elegant meal on a small budget just by shopping around at warehouse grocery stores.
Plan the entertainment. You should have something planned besides just a dinner. One great way to raise even more money for your cause is to have a silent auction or even a public auction. You can ask local vendors to donate items to auction. You can also invite a band to play or have a talent show. Try to do something that ties into the evening's theme.
Present your cause. With all of your planning for the fundraiser, it's easy to forget why you are inviting these people here in the first place! Prepare a short presentation about your cause, showing everyone why you are desperate to raise funds and how they can help.

Where Are Some Cool Places to Throw a Halloween Party?In Feburary 2016 15,
In Feburary 2016 15,
Host your Halloween party at home for a cozy and familiar environment. Doing this will let you have full creative control on where your guests enjoy themselves and on how you decorate. Purchase black lights to replace your home's traditional lighting, or incorporate various colors of light throughout your home (such as orange lighting in your bathroom to go along with the theme of Halloween). Purchase a fog machine to give the added effect of a spooky atmosphere. Other decorations, such as fake cobwebs, statues and household decorations, are available at local Halloween store outlets or online (see Resources).
At a Haunted House
Renting a haunted house is a possibility, depending on your surrounding area and available houses. Many haunted houses are open for the public during the fall and around Halloween, so you may have to call many haunted houses to inquire about private rentals and parties. Renting a haunted house may also mean special restrictions or a specific time frame your guests can attend. Sign a rental agreement in advance that sets forth the terms of the rental. Most haunted houses are already pre-decorated, but you will more than likely be required to provide your own entertainment, food and beverages for your guests.
In a Field or Barn
If you live in a rural area or near a facility with a large field or barn, it may be possible to host your Halloween party in these locations. If the field or land is public property, find out from the appropriate local governmental authorities about any required permits or restrictions on using the land. You can also ask neighbors or the owners of an empty barn or field about hosting a Halloween party on their property, although you will be responsible for all of your party guests and their behavior.
At a Rented Venue
Renting a venue for a Halloween party is a perfect solution for those who live in larger cities or prefer an indoor event. Some bowling alleys (including cosmic bowling) allow rentals for private parties to host their own gatherings. You can also rent local banquet halls or even a time slot at your city's community center, depending on the community center's specific rules and pricing. Other venues to rent for the evening might include a concert hall or an entire 'laser' tag or paintball building, though these will cost significantly more in rental costs.
