Superflush kits start at $249.00. The most common kit is $299.00. ABS Marine can install the engine flusher for you, or give you advice so you can do it yourself. Installation starts at $99.00 per engine.
Why aren't the old fashioned ear muff style flushing devices adequate for flushing my engine?
The ear muff flushing devices are Thirty year old technology and they have critical shortcomings. Marine engines utilize high volume water pumps, mostly with neoprene rubber impellers. Any interruption in the water flow while the engine is running will severely damage the impeller. With the ear muff device, you are simply not getting the volume of water into the water pump and in many instances it will cause the garden hose to collapse.
At 1500 RPM the engine water pump can only create approximately five pounds of pressure in the cooling system. This is not nearly enough volume of water to flush the engine properly. It has little or no effect on the salt corrosion buildup inside the engine block. Conversely the SuperFlush System back-fills the idle engine, pressurized the cooling system to twenty two pounds and pulsates the water to shake the salt corrosion out of the engine.
My boat stays in the water almost all the time. Will SuperFlush allow me to flush my engine without pulling the boat out of the water?
Yes! The system not only operates with the engines off but flushes in or out of the water.
The less efficient alternatives to are to install an expensive custom flushing system with brass piping and gate valves on your inboard, purchase an outboard with flushports or use earmuffs on your engine. The flushports and earmuffs still require that you get in the water to utilize them.
My boat is on a lift and virtually impossible to access with conventional flushing devices. How can SuperFlush help solve this problem?
Install the hose connection access panel on the side of your boat. By utilizing a commercial grade quick connect fitting on your garden hose, you can snap the hose on and by simply turn on a valve connected to the end of the garden hose to activate your flushing system. With this setup you can utilize the under nearly inaccessible situations.
I would like to install SuperFlush on my new boat but I'm concerned about the engine warranty. Will SuperFlush affect my warranty?
Your warranty stays intact. The SF is a completely passive system. Your engine warranty is not affected.
My engine is already fresh water cooled. Do I even need to worry about corrosion?
Even freshwater or closed cooling systems have components which are exposed to salt water corrosion.
The system solves these problems by flushing all of these components. Additionally it can save you thousands of dollars in maintenance costs. How? Using the environmentally safe chemical treatment programs means that routine (until now) heat exchanger service and replacement is NO LONGER NECESSARY.
Can the SuperFlush System be used to winterize my engine or flush other chemicals through the system?
Yes! We offers a full line of chemical treatments including an anti-marine growth solution for retarding zebra mussels and other fouling marine growth. They also offer anti-corrosive treatment and anti-freeze treatments. All of these are available through your dealer. Chemical induction kits make quick and easy work of engine lay up or winterization procedures.
Also, flushing the engine periodically with FlushClear offers an additional anti-corrosive protection and lubrication of the cooling system components.
If my boat is out of the water and I need to start my engine for test purposes, can I access my system to provide water for the cooling system?
We recommend the engine's be off when utilizing the system. However, in this instance you could use the system as long as you do not exceed 1100 RPM. Higher RPMs can result in damage to the water pump. Remember, the system flushes from the top down and the water pump is pushing the water up into the engine. In this instance, they are working against each other. That is why we do not recommend running the engine while utilizing the system.
What about so called T-fittings or hose connections? Why don't they do the job?
T-fittings access the engine at one point only, either upstream or downstream of the raw water pump. Either junction is inadequate because of the limited water flow available from the municipal water supply. If the T-fitting is downstream of the pump, over 65% of the available water supply will run out the water pickups and be unavailable for engine flushing. If the T-fitting is installed upstream of the raw water pump, then the engine will fill to the first gravity drain point and no further because of inadequate volume. The circulation through the engine will be minimal, and the upper reaches of the exhaust systems will not be cooled or flushed. Additionally over 90 % of impeller damage and wear occurs while attempting to flush engines, caused by impeller cavitations in the centrifugal housing. The systems overcome these obstacles by using a multi-point injection scenario, precise metering control and superior technology.
How can SuperFlush save Time And Money?
Every major engine manufacturer recommends that you flush your engine after every use. If you use a conventional method (Earmuffs, Flushports, or T-fittings), you should run the engine from 18-22 minutes at a high idle to ensure that the thermostats open. This makes your engine run at higher than normal exhaust temperatures, resulting in premature engine wear and shortened engine life. And it's time consuming, noisy, expensive and environmentally unsound.
MONEY: You don't run the engine. So you don't use fuel. Using other methods require 18-22 minutes of running time. At $1.50 per gallon (avg. cost of fuel purchased at marina) based on 6 g.p.h. (gallons per hour) consumption at idle of a 5.7 Liter inboard, that's $3.12 of fuel per flush. At 100 flushes that's $312.00.
TIME: The System is fully automatic. Connect the hose, wait four minutes and you're through. Other methods require 18-22 minutes of supervised flushing. At 100 Flushes you've wasted 30-36 man-hours flushing your engine Vs. 6 hours 40 minutes for the SuperFlush System.
MONEY: The System's superior performance will greatly increase the operational life cycle of your marine engine by reducing corrosion related problems. By far the number one cause of engine failure.
MONEY: Less corrosion damage means less money spent on maintenance and parts.
MONEY: The Systems use 80 % less water to flush an engine than any conventional method, saving your money while helping to protect the environment.
Recreational craft engines come in two broad categories - outboard or inboard. These different engine types have markedly different emissions characteristics as outlined below.
Outboard engines are usually mounted at the rear of the vessel and have a self-contained drive unit. The small size, weight and low purchase price make outboard engines popular for smaller craft. Most outboard engines are two stroke gasoline units using an oil/gas mix although four stroke outboards are growing in popularity and the use of propane gas for both 4 and 2 stroke engines is also becoming more popular.
As the name suggests, inboard engines are mounted inside the craft and drive is relayed through various different transmission systems such as shaft drive/propeller, stern drive/propeller, sail drive and water jet drive. The latter are used on personal watercraft.
Inboard engines tend to be used within larger craft and are usually fuelled by gasoline or diesel. These engines are generally more powerful and are used where the weight and size of the unit are not the overriding consideration. Many inboard engines are marine derivatives of commercial automotive engines. Although diesel inboard engines are becoming increasingly popular, four stroke gas engines are usually chosen where installation space is more limited or where higher power to weight ratios are required, as with water sports craft.
4 stroke engines generally produce higher CO, CO2, and NOx, but lower HC than 2 stroke engines. 2 stroke engines emit relatively high levels of HC in both burnt and unburned form, but low levels of NOx. Diesel engines are more fuel efficient than 4 stroke or 2 stroke petrol engines and therefore emit lower overall CO and CO2 However, they produce greater quantities of SO2, Nitrogen Dioxide and particulates. In terms of marine features, it is the effect of hydrocarbons and lead in the water column and sediment that are of key significance.
Nonpoint Source Pollutions are caused when marine engines of any kind are flushed WITH CONVENTIONAL TECHNOLOGIES in proximity to any inland waterway, intercostal waterway, or tributary which leads into any navigable waterway or water system. It is expressly prohibited by the Code of Federal Regulations under the Federal Rainwater runoff act of 1997.
Hydrocarbons - modern outboard, inboard and stern drive engines exhaust below the water surface and, as a result, all hydrocarbon emissions pass through the water. Except when they are being "flushed". Flushing is a process where the engine is ran while connected to a water supply. The intent is to remove the corrosive salt water from the engine and drive elements. Traditional engine flushing is an environmental disaster. Elevated exhaust emissions and emulsions from the contaminated effluent goes directly into the atmosphere and into the ground water reservoir, or runs back into inland or coastal waterways and is a serious source of both air and water pollution. Engine flushing using traditional methods is directly responsible for introducing millions of tons of NOx, CO,CO2,HC,SO2, lead and particulate matter into both the air and the ground water reservoir. With over 19 million boats in the U.S. alone, it's easy to see the size of the problem.
The Superflush system is the answer.
No Noise and No Pollution from the best and most convenient marine engine flushing and corrosion control system in the world. It's the right choice for responsible boaters.

Proposed City of DeKalb 2020 budget is balanced
City Council, finance advisory committee meet for 2-day budget workshop
The two-day budget workshop between the City Council and Finance Advisory Committee will continue at another joint meeting set for 6 p.m. Wednesday at the DeKalb Municipal Building, and the city council will hold a first round vote on the FY2020 budget Monday. (Kelsey Rettke)
DeKALB – It's been a trying but productive year for the City of DeKalb, said City Manager Bill Nicklas, who credits city staff for working to compile a 2020 budget draft that is balanced, a contrast from this time last year, when budget talks were muddled by differing numbers and no city manager to organize them.
In an interview after Monday's joint budget meeting between the City Council and city's Finance Advisory Committee, Nicklas said the city was in "crisis mode" when he came on board Jan. 1. With a reduction in staffing, and spending restraints in all departments, his proposed $101.8 million city budget has a $1.1 million spending cushion. The two bodies discussed the city's general funds and special funds Monday. The two-day budget workshop will continue at another joint meeting set for 6 p.m. Wednesday at the DeKalb Municipal Building, and the City Council will hold a first-round vote on the fiscal 2020 budget Monday.
"It's a positive budget," Nicklas said, adding it was "not the work of one person."
Members of the council and committee didn't do much talking during the meeting, but Mayor Jerry Smith commended Nicklas' draft.
"This is the most complete narrative I've seen in city budgets," Smith said.
The proposed budget projects $101.8 million in expenses and $103 million in revenue, with 192 full-time positions (five fewer than last year) and 40 part-time positions (four fewer than last year).
Unlike the fiscal 2019 budget, fiscal 2020 budgets for police and fire does not recommend any staffing cuts.
The DeKalb Police Department's proposed budget is $28.9 million, with 80 full-time staff and 16 part-time, documents show. The department's 2020 initiatives include a pilot program for body cameras, reinstating a 10-week citizens police academy (which hasn't run since 2009, documents show) and full implementation of the countywide digital radio network.
Interim DeKalb Police Chief John Petragallo still is being assessed by city staff and council as to whether he will take on that role full-time, Nicklas said.
The DeKalb Fire Department's proposed budget includes 57 full-time staff members with a $23.8 million budget. Initiatives for the new year also include the countywide digital radio system, along with implementing an emergency operating procedure for the city.
The city's Public Works Department lost its department head in the new year staffing cuts, and the duties have been dispersed to the remaining employees. The reorganization saw Bryan Faivre take over the utilities, engineering and transpiration side, and Andy Raih the streets and fleets.
The department includes 33 full-time and 18 part-time staff members, with a $6.8 million proposed budget. Initiatives for the new year include assisting with city hall relocation and a water main capital improvement along Crego Road, Gurler Road and south Route 23 for the Chicago West Business Park.

In the land of Lionel Messi, Liverpool's heart is beating stronger than ever before
A unique insight into Liverpool's vibrant fan community in the Argentine capital of Buenos Aires.
Joel RabinowitzStaff Writer
Liverpool have a thriving, dedicated fan community in the Argentine capital of Buenos Aires.
Now it's official. Liverpool are not only champions of Europe, but also champions of the world, after Jürgen Klopp's side beat Flamengo to win the Club World Cup on Saturday for the first time in the club's 127-year history.
It's not only on the football pitch that Liverpool have conquered the world, though. At a time when the Reds are the best club side on the planet, there is a thriving, dedicated fan base across every continent (with the possible exception of Antarctica, perhaps) following this remarkable team and forming their own, tight-knit communities around their common passion for Liverpool.
One such community is found in the Argentine capital of Buenos Aires, where the Official Liverpool Supporters Club was established in the 2014/15 campaign. Liverpool, of course, have had several notable Argentine players in years gone by, from Emiliano Insua, to Maxi Rodriguez and Javier Mascherano, and while there aren't any representatives in the current squad, the profound South American influence is continued by Roberto Firmino, Alisson Becker and Fabinho today.
In recent years, Liverpool's global following has been evident on pre-season tours to the United States, Southeast Asia and Australia, while the enormous fan presence in Egypt in particular has been well documented since Mohamed Salah's arrival at the club in June 2017.

Liverpool have conquered the land of ice and fire, where over 1% of its population supports the Reds
Relatively little, though, is known about Liverpool's supporter community in Argentina, so Liverpool.com spoke to OLSC Buenos Aires to find out how this particular Liverpool family first started and has gradually expanded over the years.
Speaking of how it began, they said: "Argentina is characterized for having a lot of Liverpool fans, and one of the biggest reasons for this is originally the Beatles' musical influence, you could say.
"Our supporters club all started with a Facebook group, where there were a lot of debates about the perfomance of the team, transfers, fixtures, etc. It was very active, but at some point the attention turned to Twitter where the debates continued. Although we were a lot of supporters, we lacked organization, so the OLSC Buenos Aires was established in season 2014/15, whose funder was not from this country so he did not know how huge this fan base was.
"Then, this year, via Whatsapp groups we contacted him, the OLSC Buenos Aires president, Kyran Culhane, to help this passion grow from generation to generation (from grandparents to grandsons) and to make us heard. In this part of the world, we also live, feel and breath the Liverpool way every day of the week.
"This was a new step in our development as it was like a re-birth, from new social network accounts to getting in touch with journalists and, most importantly, former Liverpool Argentinian players, which helped people to know us as OLSC."
Aside from producing two of the finest footballers ever to play the game in Lionel Messi and Diego Maradona, Argentina is well known for having two of the world's most iconic football clubs in River Plate and Boca Juniors – both from Buenos Aires – with the rivalry between the two renowned for being one of the fiercest of any in the sport.
Liverpool are the King of Denmark, where thousands turned stadium red for Champions League glory
And with so many outstanding Argentine players plying their trade across Europe's top leagues today, it's unsurprising that there is keen interest in club football well beyond their shores. But what exactly is it that draws Argentine fans towards Liverpool specifically?
"The main reason we are Liverpool fans is because of its history," OLSC Buenos Aires say.
"The majority of us fell in love with Liverpool when we learned about its traditions, watching the goals of our Scouser god, Steven Gerrard. Others were amazed by the Champions League final of 2005 and this continues today. Performances of Fernando Torres and Luis Suarez also helped to get Liverpool known in South America, as they were the first idols followed by young Argentinian fans. Without doubt, after winning the Champions League last season, the fan base will grow a lot more as a result."
Far from being 'glory hunters', though, many of the current generation of Argentine supporters started following Liverpool during the early 2010s, at which point the club was in poor health both on and off the field, around the gloomy days of the Hicks and Gillett era, and Roy Hodgson's brief but dour reign.

The firm evidence Takumi Minamino Liverpool impact and value could far transcend the football pitch
They explain: "A lot of us follow this club for the love of the shirt since the darker ages of it. To put you in context, because of the massive time difference, we have to get up early in the morning every weekend just to watch the team who then played horribly and lost often. With that said we hung in there, head held high, in front of the TV or listening by radio. Many friends and family don't understand how we can be so passionate about supporting a foreign club, but we always insist that love knows no bounds, and certainly no distance."
Being some 11,136km away from Liverpool, wearing the Red shirt is an obvious way of recognising fellow supporters, and while there exists a sneering attitude in some quarters towards wearing official merchandise, this couldn't be further away from the truth in Argentina, where doing so is a real badge of honour and something to be hugely proud of.
Although, as OLSC Buenos Aires explain, this has been difficult under New Balance due to the limited extent of their global distribution networks – something which ought to change upon Nike's takeover from 2020/21.
"Maybe it's easier for supporters from other clubs to get merchandise as it's difficult to find New Balance's stuff in Argentina, or perhaps because other clubs have a minimum one Argentinian player in their squad. Because of this, if we see someone in the street here with a Liverpool shirt, we already know that he/she is a real supporter, faithful, as all the Reds are all around the world. It's impossible that someone who has authentic merchandise from Liverpool FC, here in Argentina, doesn't know about the club's history."
Liverpool's injuries have opened the door for re-emergence of unheralded but vital figure
OLSC Buenos Aires gather together in a city centre bar to watch every game – usually around 100 supporters for any given game – but it isn't just those from Buenos Aires who regularly attend, with fans from elsewhere in Argentina travelling long distances just to be able to be a part of the Liverpool community and watch in the company of other Reds.
"We have suspended family meetings, birthdays, parties, events, travels, whatever you can imagine, just for watching one Liverpool match," they explain.
"But we also continue to be surprised by just how many Liverpool supporters there are, and to see how this keeps on growing. As OLSC, it fills our heart with pride and when we're together, we feel we are a closer to Anfield.
"We have our official home (a bar called 'Chicken Bros'), with our renowned South American atmosphere, but 'Liverpoolized'. Chanting, shouting, singing, lots of noise, all around the place. Also, a lot of people travel from far away from the capital just to watch the match all together (some of them have around four or five hours of travel).
"We have never thought that this would be such a big phenomenon. We should ask the bar owner to expand the place just for us! We also have our own LFC supporters football team and we organize matches between other teams. We are so many that there is a waiting list! Last time we played against Asociación del Club Atlético Boca Juniors, also known as Boca Social. The match was played in a second pitch of La Bombonera stadium and it was an amazing experience."
How 2019 became the year of the Jordan Henderson trophy lift, and isn't stopping for Liverpool
For Argentine Reds, then, following Liverpool is more than just supporting the team and watching the matches together. It's also a powerful way of meeting new people and forming new friendships which go well beyond the realms of football, which OLSC Buenos Aires outline as one of their fundamental goals.
"We consider a Liverpool supporter a brother. We have a very special sense of belonging and that unites us even more. There are emotional stories behind every one of us. We didn't know each other before, but we started talking and now we bring each other help like we've been friends for life.
"Just the fact we both support Liverpool creates a bond between us. In the last event we organized, we invited an English red supporter that is a friend of us who was on holidays and he was treated like one of us all evening. Liverpool is a very special family and we are open for people who want to join this passion which is unique."
Having gradually built up the community over the past five years, now with over 2000 followers on all social media channels, what are the future aims for OLSC Buenos Aires in order to keep on expanding and welcoming more Argentine Reds into the family?

"Just being fans of a team that we will get to see live if only two or three times, sounds like a real madness. But there is no limit for our many desires. The first one which is the most realistic, is to continue adding official members, with their official member card. That way we will be more recognized within Argentina and then in Liverpool. To accomplish that, we have to keep on working through our social events.
"Then, one more distant but not impossible challenge would be organizing an event with former players, fans or journalists from Liverpool, which would really help boost our profile, to see and show our love of Liverpool FC. Some kind of BOSS Night in Argentina, you may say!
"And finally, our biggest dream would be making it to Anfield and to show our support there in Liverpool. For now, we will continue to work hard by growing our OLSC in Buenos Aires and thinking of new ways of growing in the future. And we will continue dreaming, as we always do, and you know...we'll never walk alone."

1).Hadhrat Ali bin Kaab (Radiahallahu Anhu) remarks that Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) asked him," Which is the most high ranking Aayat in the Qur'aan Kareem?" He said, " Allaah and His Rasul know best". Rasulallah repeated this statement very often. Hadhrat Ali (Radiahallahu Anhu) stated, "Ayatul Kursi". Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said:"Oh Abul Munzar (family name of Abi bin Kaab). May you be blessed by this knowledge. I swear by that Being in whose Hands and Control is my life, that this Ayat has one tongue and two lips. It is by the threshold of Allaah's Arsh, Mentioning His purity".
3). It is reported from Hadhrat Askee Baqri that Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) came to the abode of the Muhajreen when one person asked, "In the Qur'aan Kareem which is the most lofty Ayat?" Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) repeated "Ayatul Kursi".
4). Hadhrat Hassan reports "Marfoonaan"," I have been given Ayatul Kursi.

Allaah says ," I have given you such status, whosoever from amongst my servants recites you after every Salaat, his resting place will be Jannat. And I will make his abode in Jannatul Quddoos and fulfill 70 needs of his daily needs, the least of which is forgiving him and saving him from all enemies of evils.
6). Hadhrat Anas (Radiahallahu Anhu) said that Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said, "The one who recites Ayatul Kursi after every fard Salaat will be protected until the next Salaat and this is constantly done by a Nabi or a Siddiq or a martyr.
9). Hadhrat Efai bin Abdullah Kallee said that one person asked."Oh Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam), which Ayat in the Qur'aan is the most lofty one?" Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said: " Ayatul Kursi". The person asked,"Which Ayat has those benefits which you desire for your Ummah, in the Qur'aan?" Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said: "The last Ayat of Surah Baqarah, for it is from the treasures of Allaah from underneath the threshold of the Arsh. It encompasses all the good of this world and the Aakhiraat".
10). Hadhrat Muhammad bin al Saumi bin Al Salsal bin Damasc narrates from his father, who in turn, narrates from his father that Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said: " Whoever recites Ayatul Kursi after every fard Salaat, there is only death between him and Jannat", he will enter into Jannat immediately when he dies.

On dying he will enter Janaat".
Whenever Aayatul Kursi is recited upon food, Allaah Ta'aala will increase the Barakat in that food or curry.
13). Hadhrat Ibn Masood (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that Allaah the Lofty did not create any thing in the skies or on earth, in Jannat or Jahannam, loftier than Ayatul Kursi.
14). Hadhrat Ibn Masood (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that no space in the sky, or on the earth is loftier than Ayatul Kursi.
15). Hadhrat Masood (R.A.) states that a person left his home and met a Jinn on the way. The jinn asked him, "Can you drop me down?, If you do so then I will teach you such an Ayat that if you recite it upon entering your home, Satan will not enter." They wrestled and the person dropped the Jinn down. The jinn said:"Read Ayatul Kursi, because that person who recites it upon entering the home, Shaitaan flees like a donkey making a sound from its posterior runs away.
A person mentioned to Hadhrat Ibn Masood that the person (who dropped the Jinn) could only be Hadhrat Umar (Radiahallahu Anhu).
Hadhrat Abu Hurairah (Radiahallahu Anhu) narrates this (above) Hadith from Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam), with the addition that there is an Ayat in Surah Baqara, which is the chief ayat of the Qur'aan. Whosoever recites it in a house wherein Shaitaan is, he (Shaitaan) will leave.
17). Hadhrat Ibn Umar (Radiahallahu Anhu) narrates that once Hadhrat Umar (Radiahallahu Anhu) came to the people and said, "Who amongst you can tell me which is the most lofty Ayat in the Qur'aan, which Ayat directs one most towards justice and fairness, which Ayat creates the most fear and which Ayat creates hope for mercy?" All remained silent. "Hadhrat Ibn Masood (Radiahallahu Anhu) said,"I heard Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) say from the Mimbar (pulpit) that Aayatul Kursi is the Loftiest in the Qur'aan, and the Ayat which encourages justice and fairness is ( Arabic P12) and the Ayat that creates the most fear is ( Arabic P12) of the Ayat that creates the most hope of mercy is ( Arabic P12).
18). Hadhrat Ibn Abbas (Radiahallahu Anhu) said that when Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) recited the last Ayat of Surah Baqarah and Ayatul Kursi then he laughed and said," These have come from the treasures of Allaah." and when he read (May Ya'mal Soo), then he said (Inna li llaah…) and chose humility and meekness.
19). It is reported that when ever Hadhrat Abdur Rahman Bin Auf (R.A.) entered his home, he used to recite Ayatul Kursi in its corners.
21). Hadhrat Ali (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that the chief of the Ayats of the Qur'aan Kareem is Ayatul Kursi.
22). Hadhrat Ali (Radiahallahu Anhu) says "I have heard Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) say that person who recites Ayatul Kursi after every Salaat, only death prevents him from Jannat and who recites it whilst retiring to his sleeping place, Allaah will protect his house, his neighbours and even his surroundings.
24). Hadhrat Auf bin Maalik (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that Hadhrat Abu Zar (Radiahallahu Anhu) who was sitting near Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) asked: "Oh Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) which is the most lofty Ayat Allaah revealed to you?" Allaah's Rasul recited Ayatul Kursi.
25).Hadhrat Ma'aaz bin Jabal (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that he stored the dates for charity of Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) in a room for safe keeping. I sensed that there was a shortage daily therein. I complained to Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) about this. He said that this was the work of Satan and I must stay alert for him. Thus I sat in the barn that night. When some part of the night passed, Shaitaan came in the shape of an elephant. When he came near the door, he changed his shape and entered through one of the holes of the door, moved towards the dates and began eating. I dragged my cloth near him and said: "I testify that there is no one worthy of worship but Allaah and that Muhammad is his Servant and Rasul. Oh Allaah's enemy you are usurping the dates of charity whereas the poor are more deserving of this than you. I will definitely apprehend you and take you to Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) who will humiliate you." At this Shaitaan pledged that he will not do this act again.
Hadhrat Ma'aaz (Rad.iahallahu Anhu) says after that he used to recite this and blow on the dates and there were no shortages in the room.
27). Hadhrat Abu Amama Sadi bin Ijlaan (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said," Whosoever recites Ayatul Kursi after every fard Salaat, the only thing preventing his entry into Janaat is death.
28). Hadhrat Abu Amama (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) stated, that the Isme Azam (blessed Name of Allaah Jalle Jalaalahu) , through which the invoker's desire is definitely fulfilled appears in 3 Surahs of the Qur'aan. Surah Baqarah, Al-Imraan and Ta Haa. Hadhrat Abu Amama (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that he searched for it and found it in Ayatul Kursi of Surah Baqarah, and "La illaha illah Huwal haya ….." in Al-Imraan and "Wa Anatil wujuhu….." in Surah Ta Haa.
29). Hadhrat Ibn Abbas (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) was staying in a room at Hadhrat Abu Ayoob (Radiahallahu Anhu). Food provisions were kept in a small basket. A cat used to enter from the air vent and take the food away. Hadhrat Abu Ayoob (Radiahallahu Anhu) complained to Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) who said that it was a Jinn. Thus when he comes, tell him that Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said that he should not come back. The Jinn said, "Oh, Abu Ayoob leave me this time, by Allaah I will definitely never return. Thus Abu Ayoob left him and came to Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) and narrated the event. This event occurred twice. On the third occasion the Jinn said, "Shall I reveal to you such words, which when recited at night will prevent Shaitaan from coming near your house that night and day and the next day. Abu Ayoob said, "Sure". The Jinn said,"Recite Ayatul Kursi". This Sahabi came and related this event to Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam), who said that he (the Jinn), has spoken the truth although he is (normally) a liar.
30).Hadhrat Abu Ayoob (Radiahallahu Anhu) narrates that he was in the front room of his home. Jinnaat used to take goods from there. He complained about this to Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) who said:"When you see him then take the name of Allaah and tell him to accept the call of Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam). When the Jinn came, Abu Ayoob (Radiahallahu Anhu) told him this, and the Jinn pledged not to come again. Abu Ayoob left him. Abu Ayoob came to Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) who asked him how was his thief. Abu Ayoob replied, "I caught him but left him after he pledged that he will not return". Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) stated that he (the Jinn) will definitely return. Abu Ayoob apprehended the Jinn twice or thrice and each time he released him on the pledge of not returning. Abu Ayoob came to Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) who asked him about his prisoner. Abu Ayoob replied," I caught him but released him on the pledge that he will not return. Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) stated that he(the Jinn) will surely return. Abu Ayoob thereafter apprehended the Jinn who said ,"If you leave me, I will show such a thing, that when read, the Shaitaan will not come near you. That is Ayatul Kursi". Abu Ayoob narrated this entire event to Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) who said,"The Jinn has spoken the truth although he is (normally) a great liar.
In the tradition of Tabrani it is stated "My dates were kept in a room.". Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said,"Tomorrow you will find a cat therein then it will become a wolf." At the end of the tradition it is stated, "Satan said that whenever he hears it ( Ayatul Kursi) he will runaway. Via another chain of narrations it is stated in Tabrani. "I should have difficulty in my back," and at the end of the tradition it is recorded "no Jinn or thief will come near".
31). Hadhrat Abu Zar (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that he asked Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) which was the most (Arabic) (lofty, respectable) Ayat revealed to you? Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) replied, "Ayatul Kursi".
Hadhrat Qatadah (Radiahallahu Anhu) says,"Whoever recites Ayatul Kursi on his sleeping bed, Allaah Ta'aala nominates 2 angels to protect him until morning.
33). Hadhrat Abu Musa Al Ashari (Radiahallahu Anhu) narrates that Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said that Allaah Ta'aala sent "Wahy"-(divine revelation) to Hadhrat Musa bin Imraan (Radiahallahu Anhu) to read Ayatul Kursi after every Fard Salaat and that whosoever recites Ayatul Kursi every Fard Salaat, will be granted the heart of the grateful, the tongue of those who remember, the rewards like the Ambiyaa and his actions will become like those of the Siddiques and on this practise the Nabi or Siddique is regular whose heart I have tested for Imaan and who has been chosen to be martyred in My Way.
34).Hadhrat Abu Amama (Radiahallahu Anhu) says he asked Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam),"Which is the most respectable, lofty Ayat, which has descended upon you". He said, "Ayatul Kursi".
35). Hadhrat Fatima Zahra (Radiahallahu Anha) narrates,"When the time approached for her delivery, then Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) ordered Hadhrat Umme Salama (Radiahallahu Anha) and Hadhrat Zainab (Radiahallahu Anha) to go to Fatima and recite Ayatul Kursi and "Inna Rabba Kumullaah" (the whole Ayat) and the last two Quls and blow on her.
36). Hadhrat Ali (Radiahallahu Anhu) narrates,"I cannot understand how a person, who is a Muslim, and owner of reason (intellect) can spend the night without reading Ayatul Kursi. If you knew the benefits of it, then you will never discard it under any condition". Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) stated ,"I have been given Aayatul Kursi from the treasures under the Arsh of Allaah and it was not given to anyone before me".
Hadhrat Ali (Radiahallahu Anhu) says, "From the time I have heard this, I have never passed a night without reading it".
37). Hadhrat Abu Huraira (Radiahallahu Anhu) says that Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) made me the guardian of the Zakaat of Ramadaan. One thief began to steal from it. I caught him and told him that I am definitely going to take him to Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam). He said,"Leave me, I am destitute and have a family". I (Abu Huraira) left him. In the morning Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) asked , "What did your prisoner do last night.?" I (Abu Huraira) said, He spoke of his great need and family for which I felt pity on him and left him." Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said,"He has spoken a lie and will definitely come again." I (Abu harraira) understood that the (the thief) will definitely come again because Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said so. Thus I kept watch at that same barn. He (the thief) came and began stealing in handfuls. I caught him and threatened to take him to Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam). The thief pleaded with me to leave him as he was needy and had a family and that he will not repeat this. I (Abu Huraiah) felt pity and left him. In the morning Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) asked him the same question as before and his answer was the same. When the same thing happened for the third time, Abu Hurairah said to the thief,"This is the third time. Each time you say that you will not steal again and each time you steal again." The thief said,"Leave me, and I will teach you such words through which Allaah will benefit you.". I (Abu Huraira) inquired about those words and the thief said,"When you go to your sleeping place, then recite Ayatul Kursi completely. Allaah will stipulate a guardian for you and Shaitaan will not come near you until the morning. I released him. In the morning Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) asked,"What did your thief do last night?" Abu Hurairah narrated what had transpired. The Sahabah were most enthusiastic to gain virtues. Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said,"He has spoken the truth although he is a liar. Oh Abu Huraira, do you know with whom you were talking to for the past three nights." I said "No". Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said that it was Satan.
It is mentioned in Kitaabul Dalaalil from Hadhrat Buraidah (Radiahallahu Anhu) that he had wheat (crops). He said, "I sensed that there was a shortage in it. While sitting quietly in the night I saw a female Jinn sitting on the crops . I caught hold of her and said that I will not let her go until I had taken her to Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam). She said that she had a family and swore on oath that she will not do so again. I released her. I came to Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) and informed him about this. He said that she was a liar. When the same thing happened on the second night, she (the female jinn) asked me to release her. She said,"I will, in exchange teach you such a duaa that from amongst us none will ever come near your crops. When you retire to your sleeping place then read and blow Ayatul Kursi on your goods. I left her. When I informed Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) about this he said that she had spoken the truth although she was a liar.
38). Hadhrat Abu Huraia (Radiahallahu Anhu) said that Rasulallaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) stated that whosoever reads "Haa meem al Mu'minoon" upto "al maseer" and Ayatul Kursi in the morning, will be protected until the evening and whoever reads both of these in the night will be protected until the morning.
39). Hadhrat Ibne Abbass (Radiahallahu Anhu) narrated that the Bani Israeel asked Musa(A.S.), "Does your Rabb sleep?" Musa(A.S.) said, "Fear Allaah". Allaah ordered," Oh Musa, your nation has asked you whether your Rabb sleeps? Take two glasses in your hand and stand with it for the whole night." Hadhrat Musa (A.S) did as he was ordered. When on third of the night passed, he fell on his knees but stood up immediately. During the latter part of the night, sleep overcame him and the glasses fell and broke. Allaah Jala Shanahu said, "Oh Musa, if I sleep then the sky will fall on the earth and destroy it just as the two glasses fell from your hands and broke. " Then Allaah Ta'aala revealed unto Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) Ayatul Kursi.
40). Fulfilling 70 needs and the Ayat which gives Jannat.
Hadhrat Ali (Radiahallahu Anhu) narrates that Surah Fatiha, Ayatul Kursi and two Ayats of Al Imraan (Shahidallaahu Anahu la…… Azzizul Hakeem) and (Qul Allahumma…bi Ghairi Hisaab) are linked to the arch of Allaah and between them and Allaah there are no veils. These Ayats said to Allaah "You are sending us unto earth and amongst those who become disobedient." Allaah said,"By my Being, I say, that whoever of my servants reads you (addressing the Ayats) after every fard Salaat, I will make his resting place Jannat, irrespective of what action he may be involved in and will make him stay in "Blessed Peace" and view him with my hidden eye daily seventy times and fulfil seventy of his needs daily, amongst which the smallest is forgiveness and I will protect him from every enemy and assist him against the enemies".
Oh Allaah You are pure, and all praise is for You, although All Knowing, You are still affectionate and off-bearing.
Oh Allaah You are Pure and all praises are for You. Although you have the Power (and Might), you do not apprehend.
1. This is the most lofty Ayat of the Qur'aan Kareem.
2. That is the chief Ayat of the Qur'aan Kareem.
3. The reader of it is protected from the evil effects of the Jinnat from morning until evening and from evening until morning.

7. Blowing it upon food and drink brings blessings and abundance.
8. It is greater than the skies, earth, Jannat and Jahannam.
9. Whosoever reads it upon entering the home, Satan runs away from there.
10. The reciter, his children, home, wealth, property and the homes of his neighbours are safe.
11. Whosoever reads it together with the last Ayats of Surah Baqarah, Shaitaan does not enter his home for three days.
12. The Jinnaat cannot open any utensil upon which it is read.
13. In it is the Ism Azam.
14. The thief does not come near it's reciter.
15. When recited with the last Ayat of Surah Baqarah then the plea of the reciter will not go unattended.
16. When reciting it whilst retiring to one's sleeping place, one is protected until the morning. Two angels are deputed to protect him.

Tangy fruit punch and orange juice come together with raspberry sherbert for the best Sparkling Valentines Day Punch for kids! Whether it is a school party, church potlucks, baby showers, play dates, or even a Valentine's Day party at home, this sparkling Valentine's Day punch is going to steal the show at the party.
Punch is one of my favorite things to serve at parties. I love creating sweet and tangy punch recipes for my guests and family. This Valentine's Day punch recipe is so easy to make and absolutely beautiful in color. This is my go-to heart day punch because it always wins over hearts.
I use a bag of frozen raspberries that will add in a nice bold color and they are delicious to nibble on. Best of all if you have little ones at home you can easily let them help prepare this delicious pink punch.
For this recipe, I used orange juice and fruit punch concentrate. Then I paired with a raspberry sherbert and it gave such a gorgeous color and the flavor was even better than it looked.
I would only make it a few hours early at the earliest. The reason being is after a while the sherbert will fully melt and begin to warm up and the Gingerale will begin to lose the bubbles. It takes minutes to prep.
One trick I use is pre-scooping my sherbert. I grab a muffin tin and put plastic wrap inside, to keep the sherbert from sticking in the pan. Just scoop and drop in each muffin tin hole. Then toss in the freezer until you are ready to assemble your Valentines Day punch recipe. This will save time during the prep.
Within minutes you can have this assembled and ready to spoon up and serve. Kids will love the bright colors while they will equally love the sweet and bubbly face.
Add in the Frozen Raspberries on top for garnish.
As you can see this recipe is so quick and easy to make. We are such a fan of this tasty punch and I think you will too. The bright colors are fun and the flavor is a definite sweet treat.
Where do you plan to serve this Valentines Day Punch?

Frédéric Dias named Chevalier de l'Ordre des Palmes Académiques
On 19 March 2013, Professor Frédéric Dias, visiting professor at the School of Mathematical Sciences (UCD), was named Chevalier de l'Ordre des Palmes Académiques at a reception hosted by Mrs Emmanuelle d'Achon, French Ambassador to Ireland.
Highly regarded by his peers (distinguished by the Ecole Centrale, MIT, awarded the 'Edmond Brun' prize in 1998 by the French Academy of Sciences), Frédéric Dias specialises in ocean waves and hydrodynamics. He is one of the top 4 or 5 researchers in Ireland who, in the words of the European Research Council, "engage in pioneering research, at the frontier of knowledge in their domain". He published a number of popular science articles in 'La Recherche' and 'Pour la Science', and was awarded in 2007 the La Recherche prize for a project on extreme waves.
Frédéric Dias is the recipient of an Advanced grant by the European Research Council (ERC) for distinguished research in the area of Physics. He is jointly leading the Multiwave project, a €1.8 million study, with optics expert Prof. John Dudley from the Departments of Physics and Optics at the University of Franche-Comté and the CNRS in France. The only award of its kind, the Multiwave project will literally shed light on the mysteries behind freak waves in the ocean - by looking at how such waves can arise in optical systems.

1793

<time datetime="2011-02-22T00:00:00-06:00" itemprop="datePublished">Feb 22, 2011</time>

A golden aura spread over the city as the two Frenchmen, men of the
      revolution, watched the sun set over the streets and buildings of Paris. And there in the
      middle of it all, looming larger than life, was Madame La Guillotine. The sound of rapid
      footsteps grew closer behind them.    "What is this?" asked Montano as he
      caught up to them. "You can't sentence me to death!"    "The order has
      been made," replied the lawyer. (It was his lover who had condemned Montano.)    "But for what!? I'm an American remember! I'm the good guy!"    "Please-"    "No! America is on your side. It's-it's the
      Chinese that you should be going after!"    "What!" replied the
      politician. "You mean to tell me that in the midst of a revolution, I should turn and fight
      against China?"    "Heh. Uh. YES! Do it now while they're still just rice
      farmers-before they grow too strong!" Montano now summoned his best impersonation of General
      Paddon: "We'll have to strike those yellow men where it hurts! Right in the goddamn center-at
      Bei-jink!" The Frenchmen laughed. "And then! We'll move on up into Tok-why-o!" They laughed
      again.   Perhaps my plan is working  ,
      thought Montano.    The swamp forest at dawn was thick with fog and heavy
      with moisture. Below the hill, the two risers (both populated) were separated by a red carpet
      that led further down past two tents and finally to the platform-and the noose. The lawyer
      watched as dozens of copies of his lover all imprudently dressed, and rather furiously, in the
      two tents. Montano came up next to him, his hands bound.    "You're
      dreaming," said Montano. "You know that don't you?" He continued on down the walk towards the
      platform. Now the lovers, his enemies, were changing into red dresses for the event.    "Hmm," said Montano to Gridin as she came out of the tent with his clothes.
      "Maybe just the red tie. Don't want to appear in solidarity with them." She helped him put on
      his black blazer and did the red tie for him. "Don't worry," he said to Gridin. "We'll see the
      list again." (A recipe for chili flashed in his head.) The executioner approached with
      different nooses for him to pick from. "Oh! Well, definitely the quad knot."    Dressed, he turned and looked out at the audience and spotted his friend Dalger. Tears
      filled Montano's eyes. He was glad his friend had come to show support. Gathering himself, he
      turned and marched up the platform. Faintly, he could hear a piano playing an old tune he had
      heard in the States. Something gently patriotic. His head slipped into the noose.

Eugenia Tadolini (née Savorani) (1809 – 11 July 1872) was an Italian operatic soprano. Admired for the beauty of her voice and stage presence, she was one of Donizetti's favourite singers. During her career she created over 20 leading roles, including the title roles in Donizetti's Linda di Chamounix and Maria di Rohan and Verdi's Alzira. She was born in Forlì and studied music there and in Bologna before making her debut in Florence in 1828. She sang in all of Italy's leading opera houses, as well as in Paris, Vienna, and London before retiring from the stage in 1852. She spent her remaining years first in Naples, where she had been the Teatro San Carlo's reigning prima donna for many years, and then in Paris, where she died of typhoid fever at the age of 63. From 1827 to 1834, she was married to the Italian composer and singing teacher, Giovanni Tadolini.

Biography

Early years and first successes
Eugenia Tadolini was born into a prosperous middle-class family in Forlì. Her father, Filippo Savorani, a high-ranking civil servant, saw to it that she received a good education for the time, including music lessons with Luigi Favi and Giovanni Grilli at the music academy in Forlì. When she began to develop a soprano voice, described by a contemporary biographer as "sweet, powerful, charming, and with perfect intonation", she was sent to Bologna to study with Giovanni Tadolini (1785–1872), a well-known composer, conductor and singing teacher.

She and Giovanni Tadolini married on 13 April 1827. She was 18 and he 42. The following year she made her stage debut in Florence. A brilliant house debut at the Teatro Regio di Parma followed on 29 December 1829 when she sang Giulietta in the theatre's first performance of Nicola Vaccai's Giulietta e Romeo. She appeared there the following year in the theatre's first performances of two Rossini operas – as Amenaide in Tancredi and as Bianca in Bianca e Falliero. Tadolini's husband was a close friend and admirer of the composer who was also living in Bologna at the time. In 1830, she sang in a soirée at Rossini's house there, the highlight of which was Rossini himself singing an aria from The Barber of Seville. She also sang Zoraide in Rossini's Ricciardo e Zoraide in its first performance at the Théâtre-Italien in Paris (23 October 1830). Although the Rossinian repertoire (including Rosina in The Barber of Seville) figured primarily in the earliest years of her career, she would later sing the title role in his Armida for a major revival at La Scala in 1836.

By the summer of 1830, Eugenia and Giovanni Tadolini had settled in Paris where both were engaged at the Théâtre-Italien, she as a singer in a company that included Maria Malibran and Giuditta Pasta and he as maestro concertatore. Their marriage proved to be an unhappy one, however. The couple separated in 1833 and were divorced in 1834. Following her separation from her husband, she returned to Italy where she was soon in great demand in that country's opera houses, singing leading roles at La Scala, La Fenice, the Teatro Regio di Torino, and the Teatro San Carlo, amongst others.

Donizetti, Verdi, Bellini, and Mercadante heroines

Gaetano Donizetti said of Tadolini, "She is a singer, she is an actress, she is everything". Tadolini's association with Donizetti began in 1831 when she sang the role of Giovanna Seymour in the premiere of the second version of Anna Bolena at The King's Theatre in London. She sang the role again at the Théâtre-Italien in Paris for its French premiere later that year. By 1842, she had graduated to singing the title role in Anna Bolena (at the Theater am Kärntnertor in Vienna). In that same year she sang the title role in world premiere of Donizetti's Linda di Chamounix which he wrote specifically for her voice. In 1843, she created the title role in his Maria di Rohan, again specifically written for her voice. She went on to sing in the Italian premieres of his Poliuto (as Paolina) and La favorita (as Leonora). Her other notable Donizetti roles which she sang in some of their earliest performances included Eleonora in Il furioso all'isola di San Domingo (in its first performance at La Scala), the title role in Fausta, Pia in Pia de' Tolomei, Eleonora in L'esule di Roma, ossia Il proscritto, Antonina in Belisario, Elena in Marino Faliero, the title role in Maria Padilla, Gemma in Gemma di Vergy, Norina in Don Pasquale, and Adina in L'elisir d'amore. One of her earliest performances as Adina had been in Vienna in 1835. When she sang the role for the 1842 revival of L'elisir d'amore in Naples, Donizetti composed a completely new final cabaletta for her, "Obblia le tue pene".

An early admirer of Verdi, she created the title role of Alzira in 1845 and sang in some of the earliest performances of four of his other operas: Griselda in I Lombardi alla prima crociata, Elvira in Ernani, Odabella in Attila, and Lady Macbeth in Macbeth. She in turn was admired by Verdi's wife, Giuseppina Strepponi, who termed her "one of the greatest talents we possess". In 1844 she sang in the Vienna premiere of Ernani after which, the composer heard (much to his annoyance) that she had substituted her Act I cavatina, "Ernani! Ernani, involami" with Giselda's cavatina "Non fu sogno" from I Lombardi alla prima crociata. Nevertheless, the Vienna premiere was a resounding success, even without the original cavatina, and Verdi was determined to have her as his first Alzira. He even delayed the rehearsals until she recovered from the birth of her child. In 1848, however, he wanted her to be replaced as Lady Macbeth for the first Naples performance of Macbeth on the grounds that her voice and appearance were too beautiful. In his often quoted letter to Salvadore Cammarano, which he wanted passed on to the Teatro San Carlo management, Verdi wrote:
You know how highly I regard Tadolini, and she herself knows it; but I believe it's necessary – for the interest of all concerned. Tadolini's qualities are far too good for that role! This may seem absurd to you!! ... Tadolini has a beautiful and attractive appearance; and I would like Lady Macbeth to be ugly and evil. Tadolini sings to perfection; and I would like the Lady not to sing. Tadolini has a stupendous voice, clear, limpid, powerful; and I would like the Lady to have a harsh, stifled, and hollow voice. Tadolini's voice has an angelic quality; I would like the Lady's voice to be diabolical.

Despite Verdi's urging, and the best efforts of Cammarano, the theatre refused to replace her, as she was one of its reigning stars at the time.

Verdi's view of her unsuitability for roles like Lady Macbeth was similar to that expressed 10 years earlier by Felice Romani who saw her in Bellini's La straniera. Although he praised the quality of her singing in the performance, and was a long time admirer of Tadolini, Romani found her lovely voice and appearance less than ideal for a role like Alaide:

She has too many gifts for Alaide, too much light in her beautiful eyes, too much charm in her smile, for the mysterious Foreign Woman. Her voice full, sweet, and embellished, is made for joy, for the love that consoles, for afflictions borne with hope, not for torments and a stormy heart, not for the ravings of a soul in anguish, not for the cries of despair.For extravagant praise by Romani for both her acting and singing as Nina in Piero Antonio Coppola's La pazza per amore, and Adina in L'elisir d'amore, two roles to which he thought her ideally suited, see .

Tadolini sang several other Bellini heroines in addition to Alaide, most notably Elvira in I puritani, Imogene in Il pirata, the title role in Norma and Amina in La sonnambula. Her Amina which she sang in Vienna, Paris, and several Italian theatres, was particularly admired.

She was also closely associated with the operas of Saverio Mercadante. Tadolini sang in the world premieres of his Emma d'Antiochia, Le due illustri rivali, and Il bravo, ossia La veneziana and in the premiere of the revised version of Francesca Donato ossia Corinto distrutta, as well as in some of the earliest performances of his Il giuramento and Orazi e Curiazi. Mercadante had also written the role of Lea in La schiava saracena expressly for her voice. However, the outbreak of the 1848 Revolution in Milan aborted the premiere and forced the temporary closure of La Scala. Another soprano, Carlotta Gruitz, sang the role in its official premiere later that year. Tadolini eventually sang Lea in 1850, for the premiere of the work's revised version at the Teatro San Carlo.

Naples and London

From 1842, Eugenia Tadolini was primarily based at the Teatro San Carlo in Naples, although she still performed in other Italian theatres and abroad. She sang in the world premieres of at least 12 operas at the Teatro San Carlo, most of them now forgotten, apart from Verdi's Alzira and Donizetti's Poliuto. During that time, she also formed a relationship with a Neapolitan nobleman by whom she had two children, both of whom died in childhood.

In the spring of 1848, she travelled to London for what the contemporary press often billed as her "debut", although she had appeared there in 1831 in the secondary role of Giovanna Seymour for the London premiere of Donizetti's Anna Bolena. This time she was returning as an established star and was to sing the title role in Linda di Chamounix opposite Sims Reeves at Her Majesty's Theatre. In the week prior to the opening of Linda di Chamounix, The Musical World printed an extract from a letter by The Times political correspondent in Italy, extolling her virtues (dated 26 March 1848):

 Madame Tadolini, who, for the first time is about to appear in London, I am sure will become a great favorite, as she possesses all qualities necessary to captivate an English audience. She is inclined to embonpoint, but she is very handsome on the stage, with dangerous eyes—the whitest shoulder in the world—and a sense of enjoyment in her acting, which your audience will not be able to resist. Tadolini's voice is a clear soprano-mezzo-soprano in its richest quality, with an intonation that approaches, when necessary, to the contralto. It is as clear as a bell, round, full, and sonorous, perfectly flexible and capable of all those modulations which a great artist like her dashes off, but which are so painful and difficult to thinner voices, and less qualified science. I heard the prima donna to great disadvantage, as she disdained to sing to an empty house (from political excitement), and used merely one half of her powers. Her acting was equally restrained, but the inward spirit could not be altogether subdued, and she occasionally broke forth into silvery and impassioned notes, and abandoned herself to that natural gaiety of song that rendered her in the scene the most captivating of coquettes. Had Tadolini known that the Times has ears everywhere, she might have exerted herself to please them; but criticism has art and judgment, and though she sung at mezzo voce, it was not difficult to prognosticate complete success for her at Her Majesty's Theatre.

While her reception at the opening night of Linda di Chamounix was very warm, it was not the ecstatic one predicted by the press. Sims Reeves' performance, on the other hand, was described as "triumphant". Tadolini was nearly 40 at the time, and her voice may have been past its prime. However William Ashbrook has suggested that her relative lack of success with the British public may be partly attributable to its obsession with Jenny Lind at the time. While in London, she also sang Norina in Don Pasquale (again warmly, but not ecstatically, received) and participated in several concerts before returning to Naples. Later that year she sang in the Teatro San Carlo's first performance of Verdi's Attila and in the posthumous premiere of Donizetti's Poliuto.

Final years

Between 1849 and 1851, Tadolini sang in three world premieres at the Teatro San Carlo – as Elfrida in Puzone's Elfrida di Salerno (1849), as Caterina in Lillo's Caterina Howard (1849), and as Elfrida in De Giosa's Folco d'Arles (1851). During that time she also sang in the theatre's first performances of Verdi's Macbeth, Donizetti's La favorita, and Mercadante's La schiava saracena. She ventured out of her adopted city in December 1852 to sing Giselda in Verdi's I Lombardi alla prima crociata at the Teatro Metastasio in Prato. After that she retired from the stage and settled down in Naples with her only surviving child. He too would die three years later in the city's 1855–56 cholera epidemic. In 1860, Garibaldi and his troops invaded the city. King Francis II and his court fled to north to Gaeta. Tadolini and her current lover, a young Neapolitan prince, fled to Paris, where she spent the remaining 12 years of her life. Once she was settled in Paris, she wrote to her brother:
Long live Garibaldi for getting me here!...After my terrible misfortune, this is the first time I feel alive. What life!

At first she lived in an apartment on the Champs-Élysées, but worried that her money would run out, she later moved to less expensive quarters on the Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré.

In July 1872, she contracted typhoid fever and initially refused to see a doctor because it brought back memories of her children's deaths. Eugenia Tadolini died of the disease on 11 July 1872 at the age of 63 and was buried in Père Lachaise Cemetery.
