The internet is structured in such a way as to facilitate explosive, exponential growth.
Most of us know about the internets explosive potential to make millionaires almost overnight through search engine traffic, and this potential is quite often what attracts many people to do business online.
The problem, however, is that we often dont realize the amount of hard work and dedication that it takes to actually see and experience this type of amazing and lucrative growth.
If we were to graph a websites traffic growth by the amount of effort put into the website (using various search engine optimization methods on page optimization, reciprocal linking etc), we would get an exponential curve.
As we can see from the shape of an exponential graph, exponential traffic growth requires a lot of initial effort with very few results at first.
Then after time, the search engine traffic growth begins to increase very rapidly, compounding exponentially with very little effort required to dramatically increase traffic.
Unfortunately, we are most used to thinking in terms of a linear graph when it comes to the amount of effort put in versus the results that we see.
What I mean by this is that typically we feel that we should be able to see an immediate increase in our search engine traffic growth, directly related to the effort that we put in, as it is with most other jobs.
In a linear growth situation (which is typical of most jobs), we can see that the more effort we put in, the more immediate results we see, so the growth/results (or lack thereof) would be seen immediately and would be directly related to the amount of effort put into the job.
However, this isnt the case with exponential growth on the internet.
If we refer back to an exponential growth graph of the amount of traffic growth for a website, we can clearly see that at the beginning stages of search engine traffic generation, there is often a lot more effort put out than actual results seen.
If we were to compare the linear and exponential growth graphs by overlaying them, we would quickly see the dramatic differences between the two graphs.
That being said, if we view search engine traffic growth as being linear instead of exponential - we would expect that if we were to increase our efforts, we would see immediate results in the amount of traffic that we get.
You can see where the problem lies.
If we start a website thinking that the amount of effort that we put into growing our search engine traffic will have a direct and immediate impact on the amount of traffic and growth that our website sees (the linear graph), but in reality, it is based on an exponential growth curve you can see how one could quickly become discouraged.
Think of exponential search engine growth as planting seeds and linear search engine growth as building a house. When you are building a house, you can see that the harder and longer you work, the quicker you see and experience the results. On the other hand, planting seeds often requires a lot of up front effort without a lot of results before you can get some growth. But when the seeds start growing, they grow and mature fairly quickly with a lot less effort than when you first planted them.
The exponential growth of the internet requires a lot more up front effort, which doesnt achieve much in the way of immediate results, in order to realize the super traffic growth with very little effort later on.
This is why so many people give up in the early phases of search engine optimization and traffic growth they simply dont see the results that they feel their effort should have earned them.
So they quit.
Unfortunately for them, if they had known that they were dealing with an exponential growth curve (not a linear growth curve), they may have endured long enough to reap the benefits and succeed in their online venture.
That being said, in addition to understanding what kind of growth environment we are in when we deal with the internet, we must also use the techniques for traffic generation that are best suited to take advantage of the explosive exponential growth that is available for us on the internet.

Smith: Promising steps invite a bold Albany
Updated 4:09 pm, Friday, August 9, 2013
When was the last time you heard any initiative in Albany be described as "bold"? That is, aside from rhetorical riffs of self-congratulation by politicians.
Lay aside hyperbole. What's a "bold" step in a city's life? What might it be here?
Bold is what Chicago was in 1900, when the city's water source was at risk. The Chicago River was carrying a heavy load of debris and sewage downstream to Lake Michigan. So the city undertook one of the great engineering feats of the early 20th century: it reversed the river's flow, and saved the lake.
Bold describes San Antonio during the Great Depression, when citizens voted to tax themselves to fund the conversion of a polluted flood control ditch into a scenic walkway, drawing millions of visitors annually to its gardens, shops and restaurants.
Bold action is how Cleveland recreated itself, from being the model of Rust Belt decay, on a river so polluted that it famously caught fire in 1969, to an economically diverse center of technology, education and health care — a place that now is actually cool.
More Information
Rex Smith is editor of the Times Union. Share your thoughts at http://blog.timesunion.com/editors.
Bold is what Albany needs to be now. A combination of factors, including the certainty of new leadership in City Hall, are aligned to offer an opportunity to do more than settle for incremental progress.
In fact, it's the smart steps taken recently in the city that demand a bold broader vision now.
This week brought the announcement that the old DeWitt Clinton Hotel, closed for almost four decades despite its prominent location just across the street from the state Capitol, will undergo a $48.5 million renovation. Imagine: A lobbyist heaving a silver dollar from the Capitol's shadow will be able to hit a high-end hotel rather than an empty brick hulk. Luster will be added to Albany's brand.
Another transformative project was unveiled two weeks ago by Albany Medical Center: a $110 million plan to transform Park South, once a crime- and drug-ridden neighborhood steps away from Washington Park, into a cluster of medical offices and five- and six-story apartment buildings with street-level shops. If the project is executed with care for people displaced from their homes, it could further solidify Albany's reputation as a leader in health care, which is not only good in its own right but also a lure for families and companies thinking of locating here.
Consider, too, the investments that developers are making in downtown Albany residential real estate. High-end condos are opening in old commercial buildings on blocks not far from the Palace Theater and the Pearl Street entertainment district. Nearby, Habitat for Humanity imaginatively plans 10,000 square feet of new housing in Sheridan Hollow, a neighborhood long characterized by boarded-up houses and vacant lots.
On Broadway, historic Kiernan Plaza — downtown's gorgeous old train station — is poised to become an incubator to house high-tech start-ups.
And then there is the just-released plan for a scaled-down convention center — a two-story, 80,000-square-foot building just behind the DeWitt Clinton, which would connect by covered walkways to the Times Union Center and the Empire State Plaza's underground concourse.
What are we to make of that?
Until we know more, it's hard to say. Advocates for years have touted the need for what had been planned a bit farther east from the new site: a $220 million, 300,000-square-foot convention center. But it lost political support during the recession.
Will a smaller facility up the hill — on a site rejected by planners a few years ago — provide lasting value? Or is the new proposal just a way to quickly use the $63 million remaining in a state grant for the project, and fill largely vacant land near the Capitol with a gleaming new steel-and-glass structure?
Maybe the new convention center idea is smart. It could be that the bigger project was a mistake and the recession has "right-sized" the notion.
Or would something more bold simply be too exhausting? Albany and other communities its size often waste opportunities by fashioning ideas for the future that lean toward the safe and ordinary and away from the unique — toward vanilla, say, rather than bold flavors.
What would be bold here?
Bold would be something that can't be found anywhere else. Take, for one example, the idea long championed by my colleague Harry Rosenfeld to build an authentic replica of the area's original Dutch settlement, Fort Orange, along the Hudson River waterfront. Partnering with area academic institutions and museums, Old Fort Orange could draw tourists and scholars alike. At a fraction of the cost of a convention center, it might be an economic engine for the community. Bold need not be expensive.
Albany doesn't need to reverse the flow of a river or build a massive public works project to be bold. But it does need to be sure that its vision is clear and ideas strong, and that it's not wasting the promising steps that have brought us to a point where boldness is needed to make progress possible.

Two pensioners who were left stranded at the roadside when their day trip coach failed to turn up have told the SYT about their anger at the letdown.
Margaret and Roly Mills were left waiting outside Swinton's Butcher's Arms when their bus failed to materialise.
The couple had been waiting for a day trip bus to Bridlington organised by Wombwell Coaches, which has just gone bust.
Margaret, aged 71, said: "We're really disappointed. We'd only been in their office two days before and had paid for another trip to Chester.
The couple were left £35 out of pocket by the day trip letdown.
"We're pensioners, so that's a lot of money," Margaret said. "They knew the trips weren't going to happen but they took our money anyway. It's a disgrace."

Dear StoptheNRA supporter,
Momentum is building and pressure is mounting for Congress to renew the Assault Weapons Ban. With less than 30 legislative days left before the ban expires, we must maintain this momentum.
Here's what's been going on:
We have launched our television ad campaign. This week we started broadcasting cable television commercials in the Washington D.C. area. Click here to view the ad. With your help we can keep this ad and others running through the summer to keep the pressure on Congress. Isn't it worth $25 to keep assault weapons off our streets?
The Brady Campaign has just released a briefing paper linking terrorism and assault weapons. If the ban expires there is no doubt that these groups will have greater access to assault weapons. In this day and age that's sheer insanity.
Democrats and Republicans in Congress are actively lining up co-sponsors for the Assault Weapons Ban renewal bill in the House.
Major police organizations throughout the country have voiced support for renewal of the Assault Weapons Ban.
Here's what Bob Barr, NRA Board Member, has to say about our momentum:
"If the anti-gun lobby is emboldened by their success in sinking the liability bill and really mounts a serious effort to pass reauthorization of the Clinton gun ban in the Senate, that could pose a real problem, as if it passes in the Senate there would be a great deal of momentum to push the House to adopt it..."
Here's what happens if the ban expires:
In most states, eighteen-year-olds will be able to walk into gun stores and buy new American-made AK-47s.
In many states, it will be possible to bring concealed TEC-9 assault pistols, loaded with thirty rounds of ammunition, into bars, churches and sports arenas, and even public schools or universities.
In many states, kids as young as 13 will be able to buy brand new American-made AK-47s at gun shows and through classified ads.
New assault weapons will be advertised over the internet.
New rapid-fire ammunition magazines that allow guns to fire up to 100 rounds without reloading will be mass-produced and sold on a cash-and-carry basis to anyone, with no questions or background checks.
Here's how you can help:
1. Contribute to our campaign.
2. Sign our petition if you haven't yet.
3. Forward this mail to everyone you know.
Thanks for your support. To be continued...
Yeah, I can feel the pressure, can't you?
Who needs a gun when you can have rapid-fire magazines. Should I get one now or wait for rapid-fire ammunition cases to come out? Cut out the middle man.
Don't forget daycare centers and baby duckling hatcheries.
"In many states, kids as young as 13 will be able to buy brand new American-made AK-47s at gun shows and through classified ads."
This is already illegal. Extending the ban would only take the phrase 'brand new' out of this statement. This is the same old premise that a crook will break 10 laws to get a gun, but if we make it 11, it will stop him.
freedom scares these people, alot.
They ought to move to somewhere (anywhere) else, where everyone thinks as they do.
Less than 30 days left for a cut-out to go crazy with an assault weapon to give the grabbers the news they need to push the bill.
Otherwise, it's a dead issue.
I got some rapid-fire ammo so I'm OK no matter what :)
This calls for a new organization to be known as StopstoptheNRA.
I'm signing up for a tour to club baby seals with AK-47s.
When you post...
to the bang list...
don't forget...
your ass-to-risk!
Can you still access it? (I've been trying to see their message boards, but unable to do so. They require that you have a MMM chapter leader who can vouch for you).
1. Contribute to our campaign.
2. Sign our petition if you haven't yet.
3. Forward this mail to everyone you know.
4. do not break the chain, or you'll have bad luck
Rapid fire magazines? ROTFLMAO!

IX Power Clean Water's OrganiClear™ Treatment System for Produced Water
Water produced along with the mining of oil & gas (O&G) introduces hundreds of billions of gallons of contaminated water into the environment each year. Produced water is highly saline and contaminated with a complex mixture of salts, volatile and semi-volatile organics, metals, organic acids, and particulates, as well as additives from the drilling process. O&G companies pay to have this contaminated water cleaned or trucked to reinjection sites for disposal—an expensive and time-consuming process that can represent as much as 10% of the total cost of hydrocarbon production. Produced water accounts for 98% of the waste stream from oil & gas recovery.
IX Power Clean Water is manufacturing a new system to eliminate organic hydrocarbons in produced water. This system, called OrganiClear, was developed at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). The three-part treatment system includes a Surfactant-Modified Zeolite (SMZ), Vapor Phase Bioreactor (VPB), and Membrane Bioreactor (MBR).
This treatment system offers O&G companies and water users a cost-effective treatment process to decontaminate produced water for beneficial use. In addition to lowering production costs, IX Power OrganiClear™ will provide a new water resource for industry and agriculture, and a more environmentally friendly solution for disposing of produced water.
The SMZ portion of the treatment system works by adsorbing organic compounds from produced water. When saturated with organics, the SMZ is regenerated by air stripping. The off-gas is directed to the VPB, which biologically converts the volatile and semivolitale components, particularly BTEX and NPD, to innocuous by-products at up to 99% removal efficiency. The produced water is then pumped through the MBR component, which removes organic acids. Finally, the treated produced water can be run through a traditional reverse osmosis (RO) or other filtering system to remove salts and dissolved solids. The result is clean water that can be used for industrial or agricultural purposes, or safely reintroduced to a water system.
The IX Power Clean Water OrganiClear produced water treatment system is tolerant of a wide range of chemistries and is fully automated to provide continuous produced water treatment. This system may be used to treat produced water with a variety of contaminants, contaminant concentrations, flow rates, and stripping rates, making it flexible for use with produced water from nearly any location. Additional applications for the produced water treatment system include treatment of bilge waters and co-produced waters from other industrial processes, such as power generation.
OrganiClear is patented and has been field tested. IX Power is now taking orders for custom manufacturing with mass manufacturing in 2014. IX Power is the exclusive commercialization vehicle for this revolutionary method of treating produced water, converting a liability into an asset.
Provides low-cost, environmentally safe treatment with low energy requirements

NORTHLAND rugby will have a new skipper in Saturday's Skipper Cup clash with Nadi at home in Korovou.
Banuve Dretiverata, who skippered the new look side against Suva at the ANZ Stadium in the opening round, has withdrawn from the side because of personal commitments.
Dretiverata will be replaced by tighthead prop David Edward as Northland aims to impress its home crowd at Gatward Park.
During their previous clash at home, Nadi got the better of Watisoni Ratulevu and his troops. However, Ratulevu said they would not take their chances for granted this weekend.
"We have a very new team in which most players are making their appearance at this level for the first time," he said.
"We lost to Nadi before but now we want to win and get the momentum going this season."
He said his new captain looked ready to lead upfront.
"Banuve had some personal commitments and he will not play this weekend so David will captain the team against Nadi."
Ratulevu said Nadi would be tough to beat.
"They are a very good team, they got the size, speed and power but we'll give them a good run for their money."
Nadi will be eager to bounce back from its narrow loss to Naitasiri in the opening round.
The match kicks off at 3pm.
Meanwhile in other fixtures, Namosi, the team that sits on top of the points table, hosts Naitasiri at Thomson Park in Navua while the Sugar City Lautoka Maroons travels to the north to face Macuata. Defending champion, Nadroga plays at home for the first time this season. The Stallions faces Tavua at Lawaqa Park, Suva travels to Ovalau to face the giant killers at Nasau Park while the Inoke Male-coached Tailevu side plays Vatukoula at Ratu Cakobau Park in Nausori.

Greenhouse - Hyacinth
( Originally Published 1920 )
Cultural Considerations. In forcing (fig. 57, a) hyacinths it is important that they start with a well developed root system. Otherwise the culture is the same as for narcissus (see p. 287).
The few diseases which hyacinths are subject to are serious. Most of these, no doubt, have been brought in with imported bulbs.
Cause, physiological.
Symptoms. This trouble is characterized by the formation of pure white gum pockets between the epidermis and lower tissue. In this case the starch apparently becomes replaced by gum through a process of degeneration. The gum bearing cells often enlarge abnormally. The true cause of this trouble is unknown, but it is generally attributed to improper culture.
Caused by Bacillus hyacinthi septicus Heinz.
This disease has been studied by Heinz. Its presence in this country is unknown. Affected bulbs become soft rotted but remain white.
Caused by Pseudomonas hyacinthi (Wak.) Sm.
Symptoms. This disease as described by Smith t and others is characterized as follows: Early infection becomes apparent as water soaked stripes, soon followed by a yellowing then browning and dying of the affected tissue. The water soaked stripes soon spread all over the foliage, and the accompanying symptoms are the same as previously mentioned. The stripes usually start at the apex of the leaves. Frequently, the stripe runs down the entire length of the foliage while both margins remain green. On the flower stalks the disease is also manifested as a water soaked spot followed by the characteristic browning and shriveling. Infection on the bulb is at first confined to the vascular bundles the latter of which become yellow and gorged with slime. The disease soon spreads, invading and destroying the scales, the latter becoming yellow and soggy. Numerous other invading organisms often enter and help to complete the decay and the disorganization of the bulb. Often bulbs are attacked on one side only, in which case the growth of the foliage is also one sided, curved, and bends over towards the diseased side (fig. 57, b to h.).
The Organism. Pseudomonas hyacinthi is a medium sized rod, rounded at both ends, and is actively motile by means of one long polar flagellum (fig. 57, i.). It is non-sporiferous, produces no gas, and liquefies gelatin slowly.
Control. It is fortunate that the disease has not as yet proved serious in the United States. It is a very important disease in the Netherlands, and its introduction with imported bulbs should be guarded against by growers in the United States.
Crown Prince of Sweden
In Holland the disease is kept in check by the destruction of diseased plants. Diseased bulbs should never be planted since they will surely introduce the disease in new localities. Spraying in this case will be of no benefit.
Caused by Dictyuchus monosporus Seitg.
Symptoms. The above fungus causes a serious damping off, the symptoms of which resemble those of other plants. Dictyuchus monosporus is the only one of the genus Saprolginiaceć which is reported by Halsted as being parasitic on plants.
The Organism. The sporangia are clavate. The swarm spores become walled within the sporangium and emerge singly through its lateral walls. For methods of control soil sterilization is recommended (see pp. 32-43).
Caused by Rosellinia massinkii Sacc.
This fungus is reported by Halsted as thriving on hyacinth bulbs. However, the nature of the injury is not clearly stated by him.
The Organism. The fungus produces dark brown, elliptical spores. The asci are borne in globose or depressed dark colored perithecia.
Caused by Sclerotinia bulborum Rehn.
Symptoms. The disease is first manifested as yellow stripes or blotches on the leaves and bulbs. With the advance of the trouble, a velvety olive brown mold is formed on the surface of the spots. This growth is but the conidiophores and conidia of the causal fungus. The black sclerotia are developed on the rotted bulbs, and are found mostly within the outer scales. As the sclerotia winter over, they germinate by sending out slender stalks which bear apothecia and ascospores. The Botrytis form of spores is the most prevalent and is depended upon by the fungus to spread it quickly from plant to plant.
Control. Since numerous sclerotia are left in the soil with decayed bulbs, steam sterilization of the soil is recommended. Badly infected bulbs should be removed and destroyed by fire. Plenty of ventilation should be provided whenever possible.
Caused by Tylenchus dipsaci Kuhn.
Symptoms. This disease was first found in the United States by Byars on imported hyacinth .bulbs. It is prevalent in Europe where it attacks besides the hyacinth, clover, alfalfa, rye, oats, onion, potatoes, and numerous other wild and cultivated plants.
On the leaves, the nematode produces characteristic distortions and yellow to brown longitudinal discolorations. At the end of the growing season, the parasite migrates from the leaves to the scales of the bulbs. Diseased scales become discolored, so that when one cuts through an infected bulb, one or more yellow characteristic rings become very apparent.
The Organism. The adult worm is barely perceptible to the naked eye. It may, however, be readily seen with a magnifying hand lens. Each female produces numerous eggs which hatch into larvae, the latter of which reach maturity quickly. This means that several generations are produced in one season. Control. The disease is carried with infected bulbs. The latter should therefore be discarded and only healthy ones used.
GRAPE HYACINTH (Muscari botryoides)
Cultural Considerations. As soon as the bulbs are brought in the house, they should be given the benefit of the full light, and a low temperature. Neglect in this direction will result in spindly weak plants.
This plants is apparently very hardy. There are but two fungi recorded on this host :
Uromyces scillarum (Grey.) Wint., Ustilago vaillantii Tul.
HYDRANGEA (Hydrangea hortensis);
Cultural Considerations. Hydrangeas are valuable because of their adaptability to forcing for the Easter trade. Plants should be brought in the early part of January and freed from all old and dead leaves. The beginning temperature should be about 45 degrees F. and after two weeks it should be raised ten more degrees. To force them to flower the temperature is raised to 65 degrees. Ten days before Easter the blooming plants are given a temperature of 50 to 55 degrees. This hardens the blossoms and gives them better keeping qualities. During active growth they need plenty of ventilation, sunlight, and water, and frequent syringing.
Hydrangeas are very hardy plants. They are subject to but few diseases, which are of little importance.
Caused by Pucciniastrum hydrangea (B. and C.) Arth.
Rust is a serious disease on hydrangeas. The uredinial and tetial stages of the causal organism are doing the damage. Selby* was perhaps the first to have observed the rust, although little more has been added to our knowledge of it or of methods of control.
The Organism. As far as is known Pucciniastrum hydrangea has only two spore stages, the uredo and teliospores. The uredinia are found scattered mostly on the under side of the leaf, their color dark yellow to pale yellow. The peridium is delicate, the cells are small, while the walls are thin throughout. The ostiolar cells are somewhat elongated, and slightly pointed, the spores are broadly elliptical to ovate; the cell wall is thin and warty. The telia are usually found on the lower part of the leaf in small angular groups, that are rather flat and reddish brown in color. Spores are formed in a single layer within the epidermal cells or immediately beneath it; the cell wall is thin, and a dark, cinnamon brown in color. No methods of control are known. The disease may be introduced into the greenhouse with infected plants.
Caused by Phyllosticta hydrangea E. and E.
The disease is characterized by large, rusty, brown spots occurring on the leaves, especially at the edges. The disease is often so severe that it is necessary to cut off the top of the plant. Upon examination of the affected leaves, numerous minute, black pycnidia will be found scattered throughout. The conidia are oblong, hyaline, and one celled, and generally ooze out as minute creamy tendrils. The disease may be kept in check by spraying with a standard fungicide.

Sharon Ufberg, DC discusses ways we can take action in our daily lives to reduce our carbon footprint and positively impact the environment.
Everywhere we look these days there is something being written about the importance of reducing our carbon footprint on the planet and emphasizing the problems we are creating with over consumption and over usage of products and energy.
In our personal lives, I know many of us are trying to be more conscious and thoughtful about the way we live, what we eat and how we take better care of the environment. But how many of us are carrying over this same level of concern and attention at our offices or workplace? I have been thinking a lot about how each of us can influence and inspire our office staff, co-workers and patients to go greener and to do a better job ourselves in making our office, or "second home," a more environmentally friendly space.
Let's ask ourselves some questions and be reminded of a few good ideas that we all (yes, me too) could put into action this month.
Are you using plant based, non toxic products to clean? If you have a cleaning service, do you know what they are using on the floors and countertops when you leave for the day? Choose paper products wisely, purchase recycled brands and try to avoid ones that use dyes.
Do you offer coffee or tea for your staff and/or patients? Make sure you are buying fare-trade organic coffee and teas, provide a French press or barista and provide reusable mugs.
Install a water cooler to discourage the use of individual water bottles and give each of your staff their own personalized cups.
Take a look at your trash- Are you recycling everything that can be recycled? Also rethink the amount of paper that is being printed and used each day.
Turn off those lights! Many offices leave lights and computers on all day and night. There are also more energy efficient bulbs available now to help reduce costs and save electricity.
If you eat lunch out everyday or have a monthly lunchtime staff meeting, support your local green restaurants. Or better yet, pack your lunch occasionally to reduce your consumption of processed or take-out foods and the packaging that goes with it.
Bike to work! Imagine how impressed your staff will be when you pull up on two wheels—and what a good way to get more exercise too.
One of the best ways for each of us to make an impact for a greener world is to inspire others. Be a resource for the names, addresses and websites of your local farmers, organic markets and green information sources. Post a sign or provide a Go Green column in your monthly newsletter or email with ideas and suggestions.
By moving in the direction of a greener, more conscientious, healthier home and workplace, we can all feel good about making a positive impact on our environment. Mother Earth deserves the effort!

The US is suspected of launching another missile strike into north-west Pakistan today in an attack that killed at least 12 people, including several alleged militants.
Intelligence officials said that at least two missiles hit a house in Ghari Wam, a village about 18 miles (30km) from the Afghan border.
The target of the attack was the Taliban commander Baitullah Mehsud, who was accused of being behind the assassination of the former prime minister Benazir Bhutto, according to Reuters.
"There were two drones flying in our area and they fired four missiles. They were American," a paramilitary official told the agency.
Two officials put the death toll at 12 and said they included several suspected foreign militants. Their exact identity was not immediately clear. Taliban gunmen had cordoned the area and removed the bodies, one official said.
The strikes come after a marked escalation in attacks by unmanned US drones in recent months.
The US-led coalition in Afghanistan did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The spokesman for the US embassy in the Pakistani capital, Islamabad, could not be reached.
The US drone attacks, which are rarely confirmed, have been condemned by Pakistan as a violation of its territory.
"It's undermining my sovereignty and it's not helping win the ... hearts and minds of people," President Asif Ali Zardari told CBS News in an interview broadcast last night.
Yesterday the Afghan president, Hamid Karzai, held talks with Gordon Brown in London.
In an interview with the BBC after the meeting Karzai said: "Our relations with Pakistan are much better than they have ever been before. The US, Britain and other allies must seize this opportunity to translate this into an effective strategy against terrorism."

Code "purity" advocates prevented it from being brought into the NetBSD base source tree, basing on arguments that DMA commands to the card could move data around as easily as writing to /dev/[k]mem. And yes, such commands can do exactly that; but of course, "options INSECURE" lets you do that and much, much more.

XMNR: Sony announced a new PS Vita bundle Thursday that comes with a year's subscription to Playstation Plus and a download voucher for Unit 13 but an unfortunately tiny memory card for game storage.
your paying 200 for the vita, 50 for 13/4gig memory card, and 50 for PS plus. cant really tell if its a good deal.
not only that but, you if you dont want the free ps+ you can flip it along with unit 13. so it still comes out good (although i honestly dont see the point since ps+ is great)
I got mine with a 4GB card, sold that for a discount on an 8GB and so on until I finally got a 32GB card.
They are pretty pricey but if you shop around or buy second hand you can get a reasonable price.

Douglas County commissioners heard Wednesday from people on both sides of a freeway proposed to replace U.S. Highway 59.
Douglas County officials were told Wednesday to expect a letter soon from the Kansas Department of Transportation about a proposal to build a freeway to replace U.S. Highway 59 south of Lawrence.
The letter is supposed to address traffic projections and maintenance costs, two questions raised by local government officials during a recent meeting in Topeka with Dean Carlson, Kansas transportation secretary.
But Douglas County Commissioner Tom Taul said he doesn't expect the letter to answer all of his questions about the proposal.
The Douglas and Franklin county commissions along with the city governments of Baldwin, Ottawa and Lawrence have been asked by KDOT to pick one of two routes for a new freeway between Lawrence and Ottawa.
"I don't even feel like I should respond," Taul said Wednesday during a commission meeting. "I think that was a foolish question."
Wednesday's meeting was attended by about 45 people, 27 of whom stood in opposition to the state's freeway proposal.
Commissioner Charles Jones was absent, so commissioners put off substantive discussion of the topic.
They also avoided discussion of a draft letter addressed to Carlson, containing a few more questions and asking for an extension to a KDOT-imposed Jan. 15 deadline for a route decision.
The commissioners did agree to put off a decision until after a Jan. 6 forum being planned by Franklin-Douglas Counties Coalition of Concerned Citizens, a group of freeway opponents.
Taul said he wants more information about projected accident rates on the new freeway and the existing highway, which is to be turned over to the county. He also wants to know how many county roads will be closed by the freeway project and to how much an expressway would cost as opposed to an interstate-type highway.
Taul said that, in the end, he may agree with the state that a freeway about a mile east of the current road is the best option.
"Just show me why," Taul said.
Commissioners heard comments from 10 people in attendance.
Newton McCluggage, whose land and home are in the path of the eastern alignment, said KDOT has put the county in a bad position.
"I think KDOT has presented you with two terrible choices," he said. "I don't know why Douglas County should be the fall guy for KDOT."
Patricia Brady, who lives along the current road, told the commissioners to think of more than just the land and natural areas that might be lost to the project.
"Land is precious. Nature is " precious," she said. "I think " families are very precious, too."

Boys basketball: Top talent on tap at HISD tourney
Top talent set to come calling
Published 6:30 am, Tuesday, December 15, 2009
The weather was the clear winner at the recent Houston ISD Girls Basketball Tournament, with snow forcing the event to be cancelled after the first day.
Daryl Wade, Houston ISD's athletic director, is counting on a bit more cooperation from Mother Nature when the 70th annual Houston ISD Boys Basketball Tournament tips off Friday at four sites. At the very least, he hopes a champion will be crowned.
"It's unfortunate we weren't able to complete the girls' tournament, but in Houston, these things happen every once in a while," Wade said. "All it takes is a little snow on the ground and the city shuts down. Driving conditions can be dangerous. You have to put the kids' safety first and foremost."
However, Wade said he empathized with the girls' teams, not to mention staff and volunteers who organized the event.
"It's disappointing because one of the benefits of our (girls') tournament is that it allows teams to get in at least two or three games outside of district play. Now those games can't be made up," Wade said. "I also feel terrible for the people who worked so hard on the tournament. Personally, I wish we could have found a way to finish it."
The forecast looks better for the boys' hoops showcase, which brings together another strong field. In all, there were five teams listed in last week's Texas Association of Basketball Coaches' state rankings. Bellaire, No. 2 in Class 5A, is the headliner, while Waltrip checks in at No. 20 in 4A. Joining the Cardinals and Rams are three ranked private schools — No. 1 Westbury Christian, No. 2 Second Baptist and No. 10 St. Thomas.
"We have some quality teams coming, in addition to our Houston ISD teams," said tournament director Dave Hudek. "The tournament is very fairly seeded, from one down to 32 (schools). It should be interesting."
Bellaire, the five-time defending District 20-5A winner, is the top seed early favorite. The Cardinals, who open against Scarborough at 7:30 p.m. Friday at Delmar Sports Complex, are loaded. They feature standouts such as wing Sheldon McClellan and 6-foot-8 post Tobi Oyedeji, who have committed to the University of Texas and Texas A&M, respectively.
The Cardinals enter the tournament with an 11-1 mark, but they are still looking for their first title of the season after the Aldine ISD Tournament was stopped because of snow.
"We really wanted to win at Aldine, but we didn't get a chance," Glover said. "It makes the Houston ISD Tournament that much more important. We feel like we have something extra to prove."
According to the tournament selection committee, Bellaire's projected opponent in the finals will be second-seeded Second Baptist. The Eagles, under first-year head coach Roger Kollmansberger, entered the week with a surprising 18-1 record.
But Kollmansberger said Second Baptist, led by play-making point guard LJ Rose, has a tough road ahead, starting with Friday's 7:30 p.m. opener against Davis at Reagan.
"If we're lucky enough to win our opener, we could play Elsik in the second round and possibly Stratford in the third," Kollmansberger said. "We're flattered to be the No. 2 seed, but it doesn't mean anything."
Westbury Christian, like Second Baptist a TAPPS 4-4A powerhouse, is the third seed. The Wildcats meet Lee at 3 p.m. Friday at Butler Sports Complex.
Wheatley, the front-runner in District 22-4A, was seeded fourth and will battle Austin at 3 p.m. Friday at Barnett Sports Complex.
Hudek said there are a handful of teams that could surprise such as Waltrip, which takes on Memorial at 3 p.m. at Delmar, and Westbury, which meets North Shore at 6 p.m. at Butler.
There also are several intriguing first-round match-ups, including a pair of games pitting District 20-5A foes. At Delmar, Westside and Chavez will square off at 4:30 p.m. Friday, followed by Madison against Sam Houston at 6 p.m.
"We could have separated those teams, but we went by the seedings," Hudek said.
Other Houston ISD squads competing are Jones, Kashmere, Lamar, Milby, Reagan, Sharpstown, Sterling, Washington and Worthing.
The only Houston ISD school that is missing is Yates, the reigning Class 4A state champion and the state's top-ranked 4A team. The Lions are skipping the tourney to participate in the Iolani Prep Classic in Honolulu, Hawaii, starting Friday through Tuesday.
The rest of the Houston ISD tourney field includes Clear Creek, Elsik, Strake Jesuit, Stratford and Westfield.
The first three rounds will take place Friday and Saturday at all four sites, with the winners' and consolation bracket semifinals and finals on Monday at Delmar.
The trophy games begin with the consolation championship at 4:30 p.m., with the third-place game at 6 p.m. and the championship game at 7:30 p.m.

ISAF Sailing Cup - Australian Sailing Team ready to take on Europe
by Cora Zillich on 27 Mar 2014
SWC Palma Belcher and Ryan Australian Sailing
2014 ISAF Sailing World Cup Mallorca - Over 880 sailors from 55 nations will race at ISAF Sailing World Cup Mallorca, Spain – 'Trofeo Princesa Sofia' from 31 March to 5 April 2014. Palma de Mallorca is the fourth of five ISAF Sailing World Cup regattas and will see the world's top competitor's race across one Paralympic and ten Olympic events. The Australian Sailing Team will be represented in four of the Olympic events, while members of the Australian Sailing Squad (ASS) will race in eight of the events.
An experienced 80-boat fleet will compete in the Men's 470 with Australian Sailing Team's Mat Belcher (QLD) and Will Ryan (QLD) being once more the ones to watch.
Belcher and Ryan are back in Mallorca to defend their 2013 title and get back to winning ways. Their unbeaten 470M run came to an end at ISAF Sailing World Cup Miami, when World #3 Sofian Bouvet and Jeremie Mion (FRA) took the top spot. In Mallorca they will be joined by Argentina's Lucas Calabrese and Juan de la Fuente as the World #2 pair. World #4 Sime Fantela and Igor Marenic (CRO) and World #5 Luke Patience (GBR) with new crew Elliot Willis complete this high caliber fleet.
Belcher, who was named skipper of Australia's America's Cup Challenger at the beginning of March, just returned to the boat after his first stint with Team Australia and is looking forward to the Olympic racing season:
'It certainly has been a busy period for myself, but I'm looking forward to starting our European Olympic season for 2014 off well in Palma. Palma is a great regatta, we really enjoy coming here and competing against the worlds best. We haven't done as much time in the boat as we would have liked, but we have a solid base to be working from. We will head towards Hyères after this event then travel back to Sydney to resume our AC45 program with Oracle for the month of May.'
While Australian Sailing Team's Nathan Outteridge and Iain Jensen will kick-off their 2014 European campaign at the next World Cup in Hyères, Mallorca will see the women's 49erFX crew of Caitlin Elks (WA) and Tess Llloyd (VIC) as well as Olivia Price (NSW) and Eliza Solly (VIC) take to the waters when racing commences on Monday, 31 March 2014. After Olivia Price and Eliza Solly won their first ISAF World Cup against a mostly domestic fleet in Melbourne in December last year, Mallorca will be the first bigger international test for the new combination.
'It will be the first time we're racing against the world together, and since worlds last year for me, so I'm excited to get racing. Palma and Hyères are going to be good tests for us, putting in place our processes and racing strategies before coming to the major events later in the year', said Olympic Silver Medallist Olivia Price about the tasks ahead.
'We want to keep progressing in the way that we have over the Australian summer and focus on getting the most out of each other whilst racing. Racing under pressure is something we're beginning to practice at the moment.'
With more than 70 boats entered, the Nacra17 fleet, the new Olympic mixed multihull class, has exceeded expectations for this regatta. The Australian Sailing Team will have three crews at the start line including 2013 ISAF Sailing World Cup Melbourne winners and Olympic medallists Darren Bundock (NSW) and Nina Curtis (NSW) who will do battle alongside Olympic medallist Lucinda Whitty (NSW) and Olympic medal winning coach turned athlete Euan McNicol (NSW) as well as former World Youth Champions Lisa Darmanin (NSW) and Jason Waterhouse (NSW), who finished sixth at the 2013 World Championships.
It is a strong Australian squad, who as Euan McNicol found pushes one another:
'As far as the squad goes, of course we push each other, all of us by nature are very competitive. It was great to have multiple boats training in Sydney and Melbourne over summer. Hopefully we can continue this approach and improve all of our performances to get up into the medals in the coming regattas. In Miami we gained some significant knowledge and practice against the best in the world, significantly in conditions which should be relevant to the Rio Games event.'
'While we do have each other to compare our performances to, for Lucinda and I it is always important to remain focused on what we can do to be better at this discipline, on the boat and in the campaign so we can create further development and progression. The results will follow when we get this process right.'
With one hundred and sixty boats registered, the Lasers will be the biggest fleet in Mallorca. The top ten sailors in the Laser ISAF World Sailing Rankings will be joined by a number of strong racers who will all be aiming for the podium places. World #2 Tom Burton (NSW) and Matt Wearn (WA) will represent the Australian Sailing Team in this fleet.
In the Finn class, Australian Sailing Squad (ASS) sailors Oliver Tweddell (VIC) and Jake Lilley (QLD) will take on the large fleet of over 100 boats. It will be a tough competition for current World #1 Oliver Tweddell and he's aiming to make the most of it:
'My aim for the regatta is to work on my strategies and execution of tasks while under high pressure in such a big fleet. With all the top guys racing here it is going to be a great test to see how my training over the summer has paid off.'
'Obviously the main goal for this season is our performance at the ISAF Worlds, so all the events leading up to that are being targeted to improve key areas of my game. I would obviously love to keep picking up medals but in such a competitive fleet it is no easy task.'
The ISAF Sailing World Cup Mallorca is the starting gun of the 2014 European sailing calendar. It is also the next to last stage of the ISAF Sailing World Cup, following the event in Asia (Qingdao, China), Oceania (Melbourne, Australia) and America (Miami, United States). The next and last stop will be the ISAF Sailing World Cup Hyères, in France at the end of April (19-26 April 2014).

The short interest data are out for the most recent settlement date, November 15. Generally speaking, companies within the biotech industry are considered a riskier group of stocks, with big potential upside and big potential downside. Now that the U.S. presidential election is over and Hillary Clinton is out of the picture, major biotech companies can breathe a little easier knowing that the pressure is off, if for just now.
As we have said before, FDA rulings can make or break the biotech sector, and short sellers and mega-bulls often go to war against each other in these companies. After all, if a single failed clinical trial can mean disaster for a stock, then some short sellers can argue for a stock implosion down the road.
24/7 Wall St. has reviewed the top biotech companies, without focusing on speculative companies. The November 15 short interest data have been compared with the previous report, and short interest increased in most of the selected stocks.
Amgen Inc. (NASDAQ: AMGN) saw its short interest increase to 7.78 million shares from the previous level of 7.38 million. Shares closed most recently at $145.34, in a 52-week trading range of $133.64 to $176.85.
Biogen Inc. (NASDAQ: BIIB) had its short interest increase to 2.63 million shares from the previous 2.36 million. The stock closed Friday at $305.20, within a 52-week range of $223.02 to $333.65.
Celgene Corp. (NASDAQ: CELG) short interest for this settlement date increased to 9.97 million shares from the previous 9.26 million. Shares closed most recently at $121.06, in a 52-week range of $93.05 to $127.00.
Gilead Sciences Inc. (NASDAQ: GILD) saw its short interest decrease slightly to 15.55 million shares from 15.68 million in the previous period. Shares closed Friday at $75.44, in a 52-week trading range of $71.39 to $108.31.
MannKind Corp. (NASDAQ: MNKD) saw the number of its shares short increase slightly to 98.71 million. The previous reading was 97.07 million. The stock closed most recently at $0.55, in a 52-week range of $0.41 to $2.24. Note that MannKind is one of the most shorted Nasdaq stocks.
Alexion Pharmaceuticals Inc.'s (NASDAQ: ALXN) short interest decreased to 4.33 million, compared to the previous level of 4.98 million. Shares closed most recently at $118.83, in a 52-week range of $110.56 to $193.45.

Central Jersey voters tonight saw first-hand the stark differences between Seventh Congressional candidate Leonard Lance and his opponent Linda Stender on the issue most important to voters - the economy.
"Our economy is in peril. Taxes are at an all-time high, and the Wall Street crisis has many families concerned about their investments and retirement future," said Leonard Lance. "This campaign for Congress is about who can best deliver fundamental change and reform to Washington. Fundamental tax reform that will allow New Jersey's working families to keep more of their hard-earned money. Fundamental fiscal reform to stop the wasteful spending and borrowing that has wreaked havoc on our economy. And fundamental ethics reform to stop the partisanship and bring honor back to the halls of Congress. There are very real differences between Linda Stender and I on these issues of change and reform and I look forward to debating these differences tonight."
During tonight's debate, Linda Stender made a number of outrageous and false statements. Here are the facts:
FACT: Linda Stender has voted for 67 tax increases (public records).
FACT: Taxes went up 62 percent when Linda Stender was mayor and councilwoman (public records).
FACT: Leonard Lance is a thoughtful, independent, bipartisan legislator. Former Governor Dick Codey said, "we'd be better off as a state and a society" with more like Leonard Lance (Star-Ledger, 3/30/08).
FACT: Leonard Lance fought the Whitman Administration and its costly $2.8 billion pension bond borrowing plan. Lance was called, "one of the few Republicans to oppose Governor Whitman's proposal" (NYT, 7/26/02). "Through his defiance, he [Lance] saw the party leadership deny him the chairmanship of the Appropriations Committee" (New York Times, 12/3/03).
FACT: Linda Stender has taken campaign contributions from "Big Oil," including $7,500 from Conoco Phillips (FEC reports).
FACT: Leonard Lance didn't support Bush's Social Security plan. He never has. Lance opposes privatizing Social Security. Lance opposed Senate Resolution No. 94 because it was silent on the issues of raising the retirement age and increasing taxes on Social Security recipients - two policies Lance adamantly opposes.
FACT: Linda Stender has called for increased taxes on Social Security benefits and supports raising the retirement age to qualify for Social Security benefits (New York Times, 10/22/06).
FACT: Linda Stender refuses to sign a federal earmark reform pledge and is embroiled in scandal for her participation in the so-called MAC program - a secret slush fund that gave key legislative leaders sole discretion over millions of taxpayer dollars in state money (Time Magazine, 10/8/08).
"Tonight voters saw the very real difference between the candidates," said Lance for Congress campaign manager Amanda Woloshen. "The fact that Linda Stender refused to swear off raising taxes if elected to Congress is shocking but not surprising considering her career in Trenton and Fanwood of voting for more spending and higher taxes. Leonard Lance has a proven record in the Legislature of lowering taxes and fighting wasteful spending."

Two of the most controversial pieces of this session appear headed toward the House bill graveyard.
On its own deadlines, the House killed a bill to allow the carrying of concealed handguns on college campuses. The Senate revived the measure with its own bill.
Similarly, the Senate sent the House a bill to require women to sign a waiver that they do not want to have an ultrasound before having an abortion.
But the House calendars are set through Monday and neither bill is set yet for debate. Tuesday is a hard deadline for all Senate bills to be debated. So even if the House gets back to business, it is unlikely the chamber can reach either measure before the midnight deadline.
Legislation is backing up in the House because of the delaying tactics being used to kill voter identification legislation.

Bio. of William W. Jaeger ~ son of Ernest L. and Mary R. (Peabody) Jaeger
A Narrative History
The People of Iowa
Curator of the
Historical, Memorial and Art Department of Iowa
Volume IV
THE AMERICAN HISTORICAL SOCIETY, Inc.
Chicago and New York
WILLIAM W. JAEGER, vice president and director of agencies of the Bankers
Life Company of Des Moines, has rounded out a quarter of a century of service
with that company. He started as a local solicitor, and since then has been
one of the prime factors in promoting the business and prestige of the Bankers
Life Company over many states and districts of the United States.
Mr. Jaeger was born at Portage, Wisconsin, August 9, 1876, son of Ernest L.
and Mary R. (Peabody) Jaeger. His father was born in Germany, in 1830, and
was fourteen years of age when brought to America. His father was a
compentent physician and surgeon and had served as burgomaster of his town in Germany.
When he brought his family to the United States in a sailing vessel he
spent a short time at Albany, New York, and then moved to the vicinity of Toledo,
Ohio, where he spent the rest of his life practicing his profession. Ernest
L. Jaeger when a young man of twenty years, in 1850, moved west to Wisconsin.
This was then one of the youngest states and was without railroad
facilities, all goods being transported inland from Iliwaukee and other lake harbors
with wagons and ox teams. For many years he conducted a general mercantile
business at Portage. He always voted as a Republican, and he and his wife were
the leading factors in starting the Presbyterian Church at Portage. He was
able to retire from business at the age of sixty-five, and he died in 1915,
at the age of eighty-five. His wife, who was born at Middleburg, Vermont,
died in 1904. She was born in 1835. They were married at Portage, Wisconsin.
Of their six children only two are now living, Chauncey P. Jaeger and William
W. Chauncey P. is in the assessor's office at Madison, Wisconsin.
William W. Jaeger attended the Portage High School in Wisconsin and
continued his education in the Lake Forest Academy and Lake Forest College at Lake Forest, Illinois. He was graduated Bachelor of Science in 1898, and immediately went to work as an office employe of Swift & Company, and then for a little over a year was a traveling representative of the firm. For about one year he had charge of the Stock Yards Market of the old Schwarzschild and Sulzberger Packing Company. Mr. Jaeger had an experience of several years, from 1900 to 1904, in the grocery business at Demming, New Mexico.
On July 1, 1904, he did his first work as a solicitor of insurance for the
Bankers Life Company at Bloomington, Illinois. He also worked at Champaign,
Illinois, and he had soon satisfied himself that he had found his permanent
life work. After a year in the field he was appointed assistant manager for
some twelve counties in the heart of Illinois, and about a year later was named
manager for the same territory, and later organized the agency. The company
then sent him to Topeka, Kansas, to establish and develop a general agency.
His special abilities made him invaluable to the company during its period of
development as a nationwide organization, and on July 1, 1915, he was made
special field representative, traveling all over the country, organizing and
adjusting and building up the company's sales force. Three years later he was
made regional sales manager for the ten eastern states, and on July 1, 1922,
was called to the home office at Des Moines to direct the company's sales
organization as general sales manager. In January, 1926, Mr. Jaeger was named
vice president and director of agencies. He is also a member of the board of
directors of the company.
He has been called a natural born leader, has a gift for inspiring men to
work with and for him, and he has contributed in enormous measure to the great
volume of business secured by the Bankers Life Company during the last twenty
years. Mr. Jaeger knows life insurance, knows salesmanship, is a forceful
speaker, and has sometimes been called the "Billy Sunday of Life Insurance."
He has enjoyed some of those appreciated marks of recognition from the
insurance world in general, having served as vice chairman of the executive
committee of the Life Insurance Sales Research Bureau, and is a member of the
Association of Life Agency Officers. He is a member of the Des Moines Club,
serving that club as a member of the board of trustees, and of the Wakonda Country Club, and is a director and has been prominently identified with the Des Moines Public Welfare Bureau. Mr. Jaeger still has his membership in the
Presbyterian Church at Champaign, Illinois. Among his minor hobbies are gardening, motoring and fishing. While in Lake Forest College his prominence in athletics made him a Five Letter man.
Mr. Jaeger married, in 1904, Georgia May Camp, who was born at Mount Vernon, Iowa, daughter of George D. and Emma P. (Platen) Camp, her father now eighty-one and her mother seventy-nine, residents of Mount Vernon. Her father was
a carriage manufacturer and afterwards joined the group of agents of the Bankers Life Company. Mrs. Jaeger graduated in 1897 from the University of Nebraska. Their only child, Georgia Camp Jaeger, was born in 1905 and died in 1912.

Scotland have dropped their captain, Al Kellock, for Sunday's vital pool match against Argentina, preferring instead to go for a mixture of second-row athleticism and scrummaging power to confront the Pumas' strong pack.
The coach Andy Robinson, in the most important game of his four years in charge, has paired the 6ft 9in Richie Gray with the near 20st of Jim Hamilton at second row in a side which has five changes from the starting XV which beat Georgia in Invercargill last week.
Win on Sunday and it will be the first time since the 1990 grand slam season that Scotland have won six games in a row. It is also likely to mean that they would meet the All Blacks in the quarter-finals – subject to France not causing an upset at the weekend.
Robinson prefers the "running option" of Ruaridh Jackson at fly-half, relegating Dan Parks to the bench, and, instead of Kellock, the team will be lead by Rory Lawson, the Gloucester scrum-half who has the enviable history of four wins from four starts as captain. "I have picked a team to beat Argentina," said Robinson. "The selection is simply about this match. To be fair to Al, as always he has taken it very well. He's an outstanding character. For us going into this game we have to be able to play with ball in hand, but we also have to be able to move Argentina around. It's important that we don't just get into a kicking game."
Scotland have met Argentina five times since the last World Cup, winning three. Robinson said: "Argentina have demonstrated already in the past two months they are a better team than we faced on their soil last year." Then, Scotland won two Tests and became one of the few sides to win a series on Argentinian soil.
Robinson's other changes include a recall for Scotland's most-capped player, Chris Paterson, at full-back, with the prop Geoff Cross replacing Euan Murray, who will not play on Sundays, and the openside flanker John Barclay edging out Ross Rennie. Robinson is sure Felipe Contepomi will play, even though the Argentina captain is less than certain about making his 73th appearance for his country.
Scotland: Paterson (Edinburgh); Evans (Castres), De Luca (Edinburgh), Morrison (Glasgow), Lamont (Scarlets); Jackson (Glasgow), Lawson (capt, Gloucester); Jacobsen, Ford, Cross (all Edinburgh), Gray (Glasgow), Hamilton, Strokosch (both Gloucester), Barclay (Glasgow), Brown (Saracens).
Replacements: Hall (Glasgow), Dickinson (Sale), Hines (Clermont), Vernon (Sale), Blair (Edinburgh), Parks (Cardiff Blues), Danielli (Ulster).

Hillary Clinton still refusing to throw in the towelJune 4th, 2008 - 12:24 pm ICT by ANI
New York, June 4 (ANI): New York Senator Hillary Clinton, who sought to be the first woman President of US, refused to withdraw from the race, after Senator Barak Obama clinched the Democratic presidential nomination.
Obamas victory will be made official with the vote of delegates at the Democratic convention in late August.
A defiant Clinton paid tribute on Tuesday night to all that Obama had accomplished, but stopped well short of acknowledging him as the Democratic Partys nominee.
This has been a long campaign, and I will be making no decisions tonight, Clinton told a cheering hometown crowd at Manhattan's Baruch College, moments after being declared the winner in South Dakotas primary.
In a speech that was part thank-you, part peace offering and part ultimatum, she teasingly acknowledged that the question of the day was, What does Hillary want?
I want the nearly 18 million Americans who voted for me to be respected, to be heard and no longer to be invisible, The Daily News quoted her, as saying.
Hillary also reach out to Obama in a way that underscored her desire to be offered a place on Obamas ticket as his vice president, a theme she and her supporters sounded all day.
It has been an honour to contest these primaries with him, just as it is an honour to call him my friend, she told the hometown crowd.
In a conference call with members of New Yorks congressional delegation earlier in the day, Hillary was asked directly if she would be willing to serve as Obamas No. 2 to draw in Hispanic voters and unify the party at-large.
She said that she was open to doing whatever she could do to ensure a Democratic victory," said Rep. Nydia Velazquez (D-N.Y.), who asked Clinton the question.
Although Obama beat her handily among delegates, which technically is the only group that matters in selecting a nominee, Hillary unquestionably challenged him on the popular vote. (ANI)

Amazing for it's size On my HTC Incredible (1), the menu option for System-Agenda, and another System- option that I forget, (maybe System-Calendar?) cause a force close without fail, but overall it is very impressive. Very slim, slick and intuitive. Not a lot of unnecessary features, just what I really need. As others note, some messaging appears in non-English. Very nice calendar tool, though!
Exactly What I'm Looking For And the layout and color customization option is great, but scrolls way too fast when you flip back/forward through the weeks. It also displays the week # instead of the dates covered that particular week which isn't useful to me. Not too shabby, just these two things that may only be issues to me.
Good but not great This app struggles on Huawei many of the system SETTING stop app working when pressed. Luckily crucial ones work. The other thing is I'd like to change the text colour not just the size. Hopefully at least one of these will be implemented. Thank you for your valuable time creating this app for us to use !
Where is settings? Ever since i got a new phone and downloaded this app again i am not able to make any changes to font size, color background etc.. i was able to do that on my previous phone.. All other apps are working exactly as they were on my prev phone except this one. Please assist. Else i would have actually given a 4 or 5
Love the app but one thing is missing A wonderfully presented app...simple and to the point...just if u could add an option of personal notes and to-do list on each day of the week which would remain in this app itself. Would have given it a five stars for that.
IPhone to Android Since changing from iphone to Android I have been searching for a calendar that matches, as closely as possible, one previously used. I believe I have come close to it here, though I find the font quite hard to read in certain lights because it is very faint. Although I have not finished checking the settings I cannot see an alarm notification for any events. If not possible then that is a major flaw for me as alarm sounds are an important tool for every day use. Hope I am wrong, if not, can it be added?
