The relationship between previous antimicrobial treatments and infection with drug-resistant Helicobacter pylori is unknown.
To determine whether previous use of antimicrobial agents predicts subsequent antibiotic resistance of H. pylori and whether resistance affects treatment outcome.
Retrospective cohort analysis of adults recruited sequentially from a clinical practice.
A referral hospital in Anchorage, Alaska.
125 adults infected with H. pylori.
Medical records were reviewed for antimicrobial agents prescribed in the 10 years before diagnosis with H. pylori infection. Antimicrobial susceptibility of H. pylori isolates obtained from endoscopic gastric biopsy was determined by using agar dilution. Cure was determined by using the urea breath test 2 months after antimicrobial treatment.
Among the 125 patients, 37 (30%) were found to have H. pylori isolates resistant to clarithromycin and 83 (66%) were found to have H. pylori isolates resistant to metronidazole. Resistance to clarithromycin was associated with previous use of any macrolide antibiotic (P < 0.001), and resistance to metronidazole was associated with previous use of metronidazole (P < 0.001). The odds of isolates being resistant to clarithromycin increased in relation to the number of courses of macrolides received (P < 0.001). Among 53 persons treated with clarithromycin-based regimens, treatment failed in 77% of those carrying clarithromycin-resistant H. pylori (10 of 13) and 13% of those with clarithromycin-susceptible strains (5 of 40) (relative risk, 6.2 [95% CI, 1.9 to 37.1]; P < 0.001).
Previous use of macrolides and metronidazole is associated with H. pylori resistant to these antimicrobial agents. Clarithromycin resistance is associated with a greater risk for failure with clarithromycin-based treatments.
Adverse effects of previous antibiotic use in patients with Helicobacter pylori infections are unclear.
This retrospective study examined relationships between resistant H. pylori infections and past antibiotic use in 125 Alaskan Native adults. Clarithromycin-resistant H. pylori isolates were common (prevalence, 30%) and were associated in a dose-response manner with previous use of macrolide antibiotics. Of patients with these resistant isolates, 77% had treatment failure with clarithromycin-based regimens.
Previous use of macrolide antibiotics is associated with increased risk for infection with clarithromycin-resistant H. pylori and increased risk for treatment failure with that antibiotic.

How to drive in Second Life
Dillon Levenque replied to animats's topic in General Discussion ForumAgreed. I have crossed that #%&$@!* bridge dozens of times in my ancient Lotus 7 knock-off. Fortunately I have a supply of spare fenders on hand.

Your best haiku about second life!
Dillon Levenque replied to ItHadToComeToThis's topic in General Discussion ForumI couldn't resist. True, I did steal that first line (and the idea of it being part of a haiku) but since about half of that thread was stolen from one source or another, what's a lousy five syllables?
What is the better way to write this idea ?
Dillon Levenque replied to MeshPromo's topic in General Discussion ForumI'd forgotten that was on MP. It's been around for a long time; I have one. I know @Bitsy Buccaneerhas one too because she mentioned it here in another thread a while back.
Hangars Liquides is closing!
Dillon Levenque replied to Lawrence Celestalis's topic in General Discussion ForumOh sure. Put the blame on Snugs. ETA: I just noticed Ms P. back there. You were lucky to escape relatively intact.
Hangars Liquides is closing!
Dillon Levenque replied to Lawrence Celestalis's topic in General Discussion ForumIt was only a near miss for an instant of time, I believe. Your aircraft is upside down, and even a pilot of your unquestioned skill and agility would be hard pressed to fly out of that situation.
Forum Meetup
Dillon Levenque replied to Randall Ahren's topic in Make FriendsEr, he did say 9 PM SLT; written in that 24 hour format that EVERYBODY ELSE IN THE WORLD BUT US USES that would be 21:00 SLT.
Ladies Group
Dillon Levenque replied to VoulaHerb's topic in Lifestyles and RelationshipsI'd never heard of Seasick Steve either and I hope Naz doesn't ever read that. I've heard of him now, though, and thanks,Belinda! Maddy would like his hat. Aside from all that now I'm even sorrier I was not here for so long; this thread started out sooo well. I wish I'd been here when all that was going on.
how did you learn there were discussion forums?
Dillon Levenque replied to kali Wylder's topic in General Discussion ForumThinking that a safe distance exists was your first mistake ;-).
how did you learn there were discussion forums?
Dillon Levenque replied to kali Wylder's topic in General Discussion ForumI got here via that very same path, Kali (and at about the same time, too). I kept seeing these snippets of interesting conversations and finally I had to go look. I spent a long time listening before I started talking, as we all did. Well, all except Maddy and maybe Scylla. Like you, I never understood why they dropped that feature when the format changed. Was nice to read all the comments in this thread and to see all the people, too. I have not disappeared, I just don't get by as often as I should. That's not permanent.
Is Secondlife american culture ?
Dillon Levenque replied to Lureo's topic in General Discussion ForumThe first time I ever saw real desert up close and personal I was sixteen. We'd driven down to a place on the Colorado River not far from Lake Havasu to try and find the gold mine my father and several partners had worked back in the early thirties. We were out in a rented boat one late afternoon watching the sunset color the rocks on the Arizona side, and I was changed for life. I couldn't get enough of that country. It seemed so pure—no weeds, no scrub, no trees. Just the rock, as if all the leftover material from the making of the Earth had been dumped there and forgotten. Nowadays I don't often get into country that pure, but I still gravitate to the wide open arid spaces between the Sierras/Cascades and the Rocky Mountains. As for the snow; I did my tour. Minnesota, October through February. I liked it fine for as long as it went. It's a nice place to visit but I wouldn't want to live there ;-).
Is Secondlife american culture ?
Dillon Levenque replied to Lureo's topic in General Discussion ForumGetting back to the question asked in the OP, I think SL is based on American culture (for want of a better word). It was created by an American company, after all. It make sense there'd be a good many Americans taking part in putting it together. That hasn't seemed to stop people from all over the globe finding ways to thrive in SL. In Second Life, there is no reason whatever to worry about 'fitting in'. There isn't a norm. It's true, English is our lingua franca, but that's not unusual; the same holds true for most of the world. The Americans don't call themselves Americans thing has already been beaten senseless (and rightfully so). I always say I'm an American, if asked. When people ask where I live I just say California, one because I really do love my state and two because it's so well known (thanks mostly to Hollywood) that it supersedes having to name the country. I am sure the same thing is true of Texas, and for the same reason (although you'd probably not get a Texan to admit that).
What are you listening right know.
Dillon Levenque replied to Derekmate's topic in General Discussion ForumFigures Maddy'd be on a run just when I decide to play something. I heard this today. Not sure what to call the style but I'm sure it has a name: they all do. To me it sounds like a somewhat hip hop style lyric done really melodic over a bunch of blues chords. It even has a modern jazz feel to it, yet with that insistent beat it can still qualify as rock and roll. I liked it a lot.
I managed to get all the way through this thread without noticing Angela's last name. With that name she must be nigh as old as me, and I'm in my eleventh year. How could anyone be here that long and not be fully aware of how sim rules work?
I just recall that it was 1940's oriented (and that I could not find a rock solid absolutely perfect Lauren Bacall hairdo, which bummed me out considerably).
She cleaned up nice, too. I danced with her at a get-together party for a 1940's group (which Scylla either started or was involved with, I think). She had a nice dress and heels and everything, but I think the bandana was still part of the outfit :-).
My hair doesn't show, then doesn't remove.......
Dillon Levenque replied to BelindaN's topic in Your AvatarSooo, ghosting has not in fact stopped altogether; it still haunts (intended) the grid? I'm not at all sure I like this version. Instead of your entire avatar/persona being trapped in some region you forgot you even visited, now bits of you are. That's kinda creepy.
Okay, you sold me. I have to admit that sounds mostly edible (although using that recipe I reckon you could cook golf balls and it wouldn't be too bad).
I haven't ever used a gacha machine and almost certainly never will. I didn't know what a lootbox was until I googled it. Why then (you might be asking yourself) did I bother to read this thread at all? What possible benefit could I gain from doing so? What could I learn that could be of any use to me? That question can be answered with one word: Belgium I've long suspected something of the sort was true. I mean come on. Jean Claude Van Damme? And my God, who thought of those horrible sprouts? Thank you, @Zeta Vandyke, for shining that beacon of truth into our lives :-).
Just Ignore and let this one die
Dillon Levenque replied to Maureen Boccaccio's topic in Make FriendsI can drive two hours at any speed under about 300 kph in any direction other than west and still be in California! If I go west, though, I'd be joining you under the sea. ETA: I may have overstated that slightly. At an average speed of 300 kph/186 mph, I could reach Stateline at the south shore of Lake Tahoe in around an hour and forty five minutes. Whether I'd be capable of negotiating Highway 50 at that speed is another question, one to which I'm pretty sure I know the answer.
Found it! I was right, it was Keith Laumer and Nile Green was the color. How long has that been hiding in my brain?. "Night of Delusions" is the title of the novel. I took a flyer on my recollection and googled 'keith laumer nile green'; found it right away. Even better, the fourth entry on the page was a link back to my post in this thread :-).
I don't know if that's the one or not; I'll have to dig around. As I said in my edit, I'm not even sure right now that it was Laumer that I'm thinking of, I just recalled it that way when his name came up in the thread. I purely love that part about your name :-).
Yes, that is exactly what I meant.
There's a Laumer story (title escapes me as usual) that I loved. Can't recall whether it was a novel or a short story, but the hook was the hero. It was written first person like most of Laumer's stuff, but in this case that person was a dead ringer for Philip Marlowe, Raymond Chandler's famous private detective. He goes through the whole story dropping Chandleresque lines right and left; it's so much fun to read. I do remember that for some reason the baddies in the story were associated with a color that I remember as being described as Nile Green, although that makes no sense whatever. Mr. Marlowe at work, as portrayed by a fairly well-known actor of years gone by ;-): ETA: Now that I've thought about it, I'm not even sure if it was Laumer that wrote that story; might have been someone else. I think I'm right just because Laumer injected a fair amount of humor in his stories; it'd be the kind of thing I'd expect from him. By the way, this whole Science Fiction thing is a hella long derail. We've been on topic for more than a page!

Architecture and urban design company Space Group has been selected to produce the first ever Tall Building Strategy for Northampton
The work will evaluate where high- or mid-rise buildings will be appropriate, and the London-based practice will also design a masterplan on how the town centre could change over the next 20 years.
Space Group associate director Tony Wyatt said: "A Tall Building Strategy has considerable implications for every place which commissions the work. It forecasts the space for growth and where future developments of taller buildings can be situated.
"We are supplying a planning and development control tool kit. With the document still a work in a progress, we are looking forward to providing Northampton Borough Council with a thoroughly researched report and a framework for future development."
The practice will submit its conclusions later this month and its contribution will form part of the Northampton 2011 Local Development Framework.

Overall, things on the Lexington side went well with The Move. The movers showed up when they were supposed to at all three locations: the condo, T's office, and our house. It was a crazy-long day for the movers, but luckily it had cooled down to the low-90's after having been 100 degrees just days before. The guys all worked really hard all day and into the evening. I was with them most of the day until it was time to get the kids from T's parents and get them ready for bed. T stayed at our house to supervise the last few hours of the move, and at 6:59 PM that evening, I got a text from him that said, "They might not be able to get everything into one truck." At that moment, I wished I had some smelling salts because I felt some true Victorian vapors coming on. The movers ended up taking everything to their headquarters in Louisville to do some rearranging, and somehow, we only ended up needing one truck. One enormous, tightly packed truck.
|All of our earthly possessions were piled on the front lawn. Classy.
We drove up to Valpo on Thursday: Trevor took Judy in his car and I took the kids. I think he made it in 5.5 hours, but it took my crew about 8 hours. We had more potty breaks, obvi. The kids were great, though, and the trip was pretty smooth. Lottie didn't seem to be quite herself, but I figured the excitement of the whole process was too much to handle. I was wrong.
Friday morning, the driver from Lexington, Mike, showed up with the ginormous truck. I was hoping to see the rest of the crew from Lexington with him, but I was sorely disappointed. Instead, we had three guys hired from a random day-labor company who were supposed to help Mike unload the truck and move all our stuff. I have nothing against day-labor workers, but these three guys didn't know the definition of the word labor. Poor Mike was the only one who knew what to do and how to do it. We had AJ, a friend of my niece's there to help us, but he couldn't do as much as he wanted to do because the truck just wasn't getting unloaded. My brother, who has experience in the moving business, texted all morning to see how things were going. I texted him at noon with the news that the truck was maybe 25% unloaded. Plus, one of the three stooges left before noon, mumbling something vague about needing insulin, and never came back. So we were down to Mike and two doofuses, and backup promised by the company was nowhere in sight. About 45 minutes later, my brother, my knight in shining armor, showed up to show the guys how things were supposed to be done. He got right in the truck, clapped his hands, and told the guys to get things moving. With Matt's help, things finally got unloaded. I guarantee that without Matt, we would have been unloading that truck for days afterwards. Not a lot was where it was supposed to be, the house was an insane maze of boxes, and everyone was tired and sweaty and peckish. But it was done.
My parents spent the day tag-teaming between helping at our house and watching the kids at their house. By Friday morning, it was obvious that Lottie's ennui was more than just The Move: she was sick. My mom took Lottie to the doctor and had to hold her arms down while the nurse did a throat swab. Serious gaggage. Lottie didn't have strep throat, but she did have an ear infection and tonsillitis on the remnants of the tonsils that were removed three years ago. She had a temperature of 103.5 and fell asleep in the doctor's waiting room, and if you know Lottie, you know that the last time she napped was at the end of the Bush era.
|My poor girl mid-yawn.
With some meds and a lot of rest, she was back on track pretty fast. The same couldn't be said for me.
That will have to be the next blog post, though. There's only so much drama one can handle in a single report. But I'm back and I'm home. It feels good.

Vermont State Police have reunited an 88-year-old Clarendon man who suffers from Alzheimer's with his family.
They announced it in a release sent just before 11:30 p.m. Saturday. Troopers did not disclose any more information.
Police were looking for Gordon Stacey, 88, for most of the afternoon and evening. He was last seen by his wife Clema at 2 p.m. at their home on Route 7B North. They say Clema told them Gordon had said he was leaving to go to a truck garage in his blue 2007 Chevy Cobalt, license plate CXM516. But when he didn't return an hour later, Clema called the garage and learned he was never there. A search of several locations around Rutland by the Stacey family yielded no leads, troopers said.

Where can one find the battery charge level?
What's the best way to extend the battery life?
If I shoot DNG/JPG, where do the JPGs end up? I don't see them when I import the files into Lightroom. Are they the ones transferred over to the Leica Photos?
If one shoots A for aperture, shutter speed, and focus, is it the same as Full Auto in Scene Mode?
I notice the photos I take in Black and White turn to color when I import them into Lightroom. Importing the B&W photo into Leica Fotos shows it is B&W, which I assume is so that it can be shared. My question is: Are there specific Lightroom presets that show the Leica style?
I occasionally get the red box with spinning circle. Why does it do that? I assume it's writing to disk but I've had occasions where I haven't taken a photo at all, so there's nothing to "write to disk."
Can I use the Leica Q2 LCD panel to focus/shoot like my Canon 5D Mark IV? Maybe I'm wrong but I recall seeing a video of a Leica Q doing so.
Does changing the user profile also change what's found on the favorites menu?
Is there any sort of logic for how to set up the FN versus the wheel button? I appreciate their usefulness but I find I can't remember what's where and I end up going back to the menu button. Any suggestions on how to set it up logically?

The first time I charged my Q2's battery it went to the green "charge" light. Yesterday the battery indicator was red. so I charged it overnight. this morning both the green charge and the orange 80% are lite. does this mean it's not fully charging? I pulled it out and re-inserted it. the charge was blinking but then stopped after 5 minutes. the orange 80% is still lite.? to me this means it's stuck between 80-100%? ? Anyone else experience this?

Hello there!
I feel like something is wrong with my Leica M6, but I can't confirm as it's my very first Leica (and I LOVE it).
When it is 'powered' (fresh new batteries and not on Bulb mode), if I press the shutter half-way or even all-the-way, I don't get any reading in the viewfinder.
The light meter is powered on and giving me a reading only when the wind lever has been pulled completely and the camera is ready to take a picture.
While I can still use the camera properly, in specific light conditions (low light, cloudy and changing light) it's a bit risky to use as sometimes I have to wait 10-15 mins to have the natural lighting I'm looking for and the trigger could be pressed by inadvertence at any moment.
Could you guys please confirm that:
This is not normal, and the light meter should give me a reading even though I didn't pull the lever (as long as the camera is not on Bulb mode) It wouldn't be too crazy to fix as it should 'just' be a connection missing Thank you in advance.

So, I recently bought a preowned m240 from a Leica store and realized there was a problem when I was charging the battery. The CHARGE LED would blink and after several hours both the CHARGE and 80% would be flashing at the same time. Tried it several times but the battery would not charge properly. I contacted the Leica store and told them what the issue was, so they decided to send me a replacement battery that was also used, but unfortunately, the issue still happens when I tried to charge the replacement.
I'm planning on ordering one of the Nitecore USB chargers and maybe a new Leica charger to test the batteries.
Has anyone heard of issues with Leica chargers for the m240s?
By marcdb
I recently bought a NOS TL. I'm still figuring out the best way to use it - but nevertheless, so far, it's hard not to like the camera.
One issue that I have with the TL does not seem to be normal however: when I remove the battery for charging, and the camera is without battery for eg one night, I loose all settings: date and time, and the settings in which I was working before I removed the battery. Saved profiles are still there. Just a problem with the internal battery, or… normal for a TL?

NEWARK, March 27 - Mayor Sharpe James entered his sixth race for mayor 11 days ago with the flourish of a Las Vegas heavyweight, arriving at City Hall astride a police bicycle to deliver his petitions in gym shorts. He dropped out on Monday, with a letter delivered to the city clerk only minutes before the ballots were to be sent to the printer.
Mr. James, who has also been a state senator since 1999, said he was stepping down because he was "an opponent of dual office holding" and wanted to focus on state issues. He emphasized that he thought he would have won the May 9 election if he remained in the race because Newark is better off now than when he was first elected in 1986.
"Under my leadership Newark has climbed the rough side of the mountain and has become a renaissance city with pride, prosperity and progress," he wrote. "Newark is now a destination city with planned programs and economic projects that will surface over the next decade."
His decision ended weeks of uncertainty about his intentions, upended the race for mayor, and signaled the end of his 20-year tenure. During that time, Newark, a city of 280,000 once synonymous with urban failure, saw a revival of its downtown, even as crime, bad schools and poverty continued to afflict its neighborhoods.
Mr. James, 70, one of the last of the big-city mayors to come out of the civil rights movement, ran Newark with a mixture of boosterism and hard-edged machine politics that rewarded loyalty. In the process, he built a formidable political organization that could determine the outcome of statewide races.Continue reading the main story
The mayor was again facing a determined challenge from Cory Booker, a former member of the Municipal Council who lost to Mr. James four years ago by 6 percentage points. His withdrawal clears the way for a face-off between Mr. Booker and State Senator Ronald L. Rice, the deputy mayor and a James loyalist.
"Sharpe James is really the last of that group of New Jersey politicians that came to power as a result of the Newark riots," said the Rev. Reginald Jackson, executive director of the Black Ministers Council of New Jersey, who said the mayor would leave a mixed record. "It's the end of a major era in the life of the city, because I'm not sure anyone now has the capacity to put together a machine like Sharpe James did. He dominated the politics of Essex County and, in some major ways, the state."
Mr. James grew up poor on Howard Street in the city's South Ward. A teacher before entering politics, he started his civic career as a member of the Municipal Council in 1970. After defeating Newark's first black mayor, Kenneth Gibson, in 1986, he developed a reputation for being the impoverished city's most exuberant cheerleader.
He presided over the construction of a gleaming performing arts center that opened to rave reviews in 1997, a minor league baseball park, new housing and the demolition of crime-ridden high-rise housing projects. His most recent effort is now under construction -- a $310 million downtown arena that will become home to the New Jersey Devils hockey team.
Clement Price, a Rutgers historian who teaches a course about this mostly black city, said the mayor deserved credit for using his power to help Newark "recalibrate its image" after the 1967 riots.
"He will be remembered as one of the leading figures who successfully slowed down and all but stopped Newark's slide into invisibility," Mr. Price said.
His administration suffered several scandals along the way. His police chief went to prison in 1996 after being convicted of embezzling $30,000 from city accounts. A year later, his chief of staff was convicted of taking kickbacks for contracts with the city after investigators found $157,000 under floorboards in his home. The Housing Authority, after a federal audit last year, was ranked as one of the most troubled in the nation.
Mr. James's approach to politics was also put on display in the Oscar-nominated 2005 documentary "Street Fight," which portrayed Mr. James and his supporters as up-from-the-street brawlers who intimidated opponents and sought to label Mr. Booker as an interloper who was not black enough to run the city.
The mayor's withdrawal shocked some supporters. The Rev. Perry Simmons, pastor of the Abyssinian Baptist Church, said, "I'm saddened because I considered him a friend. He will now be moving on to do other things, and I liked the work he was doing."
Anthony Gamble, 54, a sanitation worker who was shopping downtown yesterday, said he did not understand why the mayor would step aside."I love Sharpe," he said.
Others in Newark rejoiced at the prospect of change. At Mr. Booker's headquarters less than a mile from City Hall, passing cars and motorcycles honked in celebration of the mayor's announcement.
Mr. Booker offered measured praise for his former opponent. "I have tremendous respect for the longevity of the career of Sharpe James, which is still continuing today in the State Senate," he said.
Mr. Rice said in an interview at City Hall that he planned to defend the mayor's record against Mr. Booker. "This is takeover time, and those of us who have been around for a long time understand that," he said.
Mr. Jackson, who remained neutral in 2002 and this year, was less deferential to the mayor. He pointed out that Mr. James leaves behind a city with failing schools and entrenched poverty. Though he was elected 20 years ago on a promise to improve living conditions for a city he then described as "two-thirds poor, one-third struggling to make a living," little has changed for many of the city's residents.
One-third of Newark's children still grow up in poor families, according to state figures. The unemployment rate of nearly 11 percent is roughly twice the state average, and the median household income of $26,000 makes Newark poorer than every other major American city except Miami, according to 2004 census figures.
"The legacy of Sharpe James will be a mixed legacy," Mr. Jackson said.
The mayor emphasized in his letter that his administration demolished thousands of units in "failed public high-rise housing projects" and replaced them with new housing that "citizens are now fighting to get into." He also seemed to be leaving somewhat reluctantly. He took several swipes at Mr. Booker for being "a highly paid outsider" who was "invisible, inactive, a 'no show' at community events."
Mr. Booker did not offer a response. Ellis Cose, who has written several books about racial and urban issues, said that Mr. James would probably keep fighting as long as the public would let him.
"He represents a dying breed of these old time black politicians who came to power largely off of issues of race and who cling to power largely with issues of race," he said. "Sharpe James represents big city machine politics -- he's the last of a breed."Continue reading the main story

This pair of boots arrived within 48 hours of ordering from Ride-away. We are very impressed with the quality of these Jodhpur Boots and they will certainly last much longer then they will fit my son at the rate his feet grow, even with them being worn everyday. From the first day wearing them he has found them very comfortable. They have a nice strong toe and I don't cringe every time I see his pony almost standing on his foot.
Will we buy another pair when he outgrows them ? Yes, without a doubt. They are the best childs yard boot we have tried.
Would we buy from Ride-away? Yes. The site was easy to use and has a huge range, they were well priced and the delivery time was great as well.

When we come towards the Autumn and Winter months, I always like to start bringing bolder colours, styles and looks into the mix. For me, summer is a time of soft shades, simple looks and natural beauty, but it's time to wave that goodbye, now that the cold has really hit us! Bring out the deep tones and dramatic looks.
So I'm going to talk about eyes. I've always loved the smokey eyes look, but it can be just too dramatic for the daytime, so I've played around and modified it a bit to come up with a couple of bold smokey eye looks for the season that are just played down enough for the daytime, but could be given a little extra oomph to take you into the evening.
I'm still working off my initial Autumn colour palette, and here I have a softer-brown based eye look, and a dazzling blue look!
All the kit you need: Clinique BB Cream, Benefit Bad Gal Lash Mascara, Yves Saint Laurent Radiant Touch, Nars Liquid Eyeliner, Benefit Hoola Bronzer, Bare Minerals Foundation, Clinique Toast of the Town Eyeshadow Palette, Clinique Galaxy Eyeshadow Palette.
For Both looks, I do my simple and basic every-day skin make-up…nothing dramatic, just some eyen coverage and a nice smooth canvas on which to work. I'm a big advocate of the 'Just play up one key feature' stance, and for me, it tends to be the eyes, but you can have too much of a good thing…don't play them up too much all the time!
For the face I start by applying the Radiant Touch to any areas of discolouration (dark circles under eyes really!) as it evens up the skin tone: I have blue undertones and the pink shade really balances my out. Next I apply a thin layer of BB Cream with the brush all over the face, gently padding it over the areas where I have applied the concealer (don't want to move it around!) and then apply a light layer of the BareMinerals powder foundation over the top, using circular brush movements aroudn the face to really blend it and help it stick. Finally, a gentle sweep of brozer over the cheekbones and then I blend that in a little with the foundation brush, just to give a hint of bone structure without making the make up obvious.
I love brown for the eyes, as it goes well with my skin tone and brings out my eyes (which are brown) but it's not as harsh as black, which can wash you out. Now, there's nothing wrong with a starkly contrasting black eye look against milky pale skin, but for a casual daytime look, I prefer the softer, more stubtle tones.
The eyes are really simple. Using the liquid eyeliner, I apply a very fine line of liner along the eyelid and just gently flick it out at the edges. This defines the eye but keeps it simple. Next, I use the palest shade of the palette and apply to the whole eyelid, bringing it right down to the inner corners of the eye to brighten and lift. Taking the second lightest, golden shade and apply to the eyelid from about 3/4 in and blend, sweeping all the way to the outer corner. Repeat with the third, darker shade from half-way in and then finally, a tiny touch to the outer corner with the darkest shade and blend. Simple, easy and gives great definition to the eys, making them lovely and big, but bright as well as subtly-smokey at the same time! Add a lick of mascara to the upper lashes, and just touch to the lower to bring the whole look together and make the eyes pop!
I've talked about blue, and I think for a while people have been scared of blue on the eyes, reminiscing about the 90's blue trends that saw us (if you're of the 90's generation like me!) parading around as pre-teens with vivid, horribly applied powder blue eyeshadow in a ghastly way. I'm trying to revivie it and move on from these times! You know what I'm talking about…
This blue look work in the same way the brown does, but has a little more sparkle and drama. I couple of alterations and it would be perfect for a winter-snowflake themed look, with a hint of sparkle and flash of vivid blue.
Apply the liner as before and then follow the same steps with the shadow, starting with the silvery blue, and working your way progressively to the darkest tone at the outer corners. I bring the light shade righ down to the bottom corners of the eyes to really make them pop and stand out, but it's a subtler look without this and still looks gorgeous. The hint of sparkle in two of the shades on the palette really give the look an edge and you could take it further and more dramatic very simply for a great little evening look!
I love to colour coordinate…In fact obsessed by it, and I think ti can really help bring a whole look together. I wear the brown look a lot, as I often wear muted and tan tones, but if I'm wearing, say, red, I don't necessarily want to bring red to the eyes for a day-time look, so I will use the neutral brown look then as well. What's great about the blue is that it jumps out and you don't have to do much at all with the rest of your face or hair, and it's bright and bold enough to hold its own. If I'm wearing a blue dress, or shirt, or accessory or whatever, the blue in the eyes really demonstrates thought behind the outfit and brings everything together, the outfit complementing the eyes and the eyes making the outfit stand out. Or at least…I think so!
Autumn is a time when we can truly reclaim the big, the bold and the eye-catching. Bring on the dark, berry shades, the deep blues and purples and the smokey, dramatic looks on eyes, nails and lips! But as always, try to pick to one area – lips or eyes – and play that up…it takes a brave girl to go for both eyes and lips…and for a party, great, but when we're just going to the office, is it really necessary? Sometimes less is more, sometimes more is more, it's about knowing which is which…but there's no harm in going a little Bolder this season!

Lower charges for funding via Debit Card vs Credit Card?
I would be surprised if Goldmoney pays the same fee for CCs and DC to its intermediary. In the retail industry the cost to both the consumer and the retailer for use of a DC is usually a small fixed fee (perhaps 10centc or 20cents) regardless of transaction size.
Please examine the costs to Goldmoney of processing a DC transaction and institute a suitable fee structure independent of your Credit Card fee. This would of course incorporate a reasonable mark-up to contribute to your network costs. You should experience a surge in the use of this very accessible form of payment.
Also please allow CC and DC funding to be set up as recurring transactions as is/was possible on the Personal platform.
Credit and Debit cards used online are ran the same way. Debit cards are only cheaper when there is a face to face transaction used with a pin code. That is because the perceived risk is lower and therefore the fees are lower.
If you use a PayPal account you can reduce your funding fees by 1/3. If you have a credit card or debit card that is a rewards card (they don't have to be a rewards card) you can set one of those as your preferred payment method in your PayPal account. Doing that will help reduce your funding costs even more( depending on the amount of your rewards).
This will work if you have a full holding account.
Hope that helps.
A PayPal account to fund your Holding account.
I'm sorry @Tex but i have to react - this is simply not true. Creditcards all have much larger fees than debit transaction regardless if the transaction is at the counter or online. By treating them the same goldmoney made me stop depositing at all.Tex said:
Credit and Debit cards used online are ran the same way. Debit cards are only cheaper when there is a face to face transaction used with a pin code. That is because the perceived risk is lower and therefore the fees are lower.
For european users (who are very aware about CC costs and also are used to very low fees if any for card transactions) there simply does not exist any reasonable way to deposit at the moment.
@Richard_Cantillon Your thinking is correct, goldmoney most likely overcharges debitcards, else someone has tricked them good....
RocketDog Posts: 826 Silver ✭✭✭✭I have tried to use a debit card instead of a credit card at some stores to save them the extra fees, but they told me that it didn't matter, the finance charge is the same for them, because they were not set up for using debit cards and it rang thru like a credit card. So I think that @Tex may be correct.
@RocketDog If that is true it would be the same as saying magament is doing a terrible job and should re negotiate te terms asap.
I doubt they would miss something like this given the effects it has on core business.
@Skookum_Jim In the states there are different fees. A business owner is charged less when a customer uses a pin code vs swipes in person. A business owner is also charged more for online payments. It also depends on the type of business the merchant does. American Express charges the most and Visa the least. Its usually 1.4% to 4%+, plus a set transaction fee, plus other misc fees (maybe) but the cost all depends on the size and volume of each merchant and the processing company they select. Of course the fees the merchants are charged are just passed along to the customer in higher prices. It's a trade off for convenience. The banking system and associated laws are most definitely different in each country.
My recommendation if you have a holding account and want to fund it is to use PayPal to fund the holding account or if you still have a personal account just fund that and forget about the holding account. Hopefully soon, very soon GM will have the ACH/SEPA (the equivalent in your country I believe) available for the holding account to bring it up to par with the old personal account.
@Tex granted, in the states it is perhaps so but goldmoney is a canadian company to my knowledge?
Either way, debit is WAY to expensive. It's almost as expensive as buying physical so thats what i do instead until there is ways to fund that doesnt cost 3% extra. As consumers we don't have to accept fees you know? We have the choice to take our business else where.
Unless something happened recently paypal is restricted in and then back out to paypal only, totally pointless if you ask me. Holding? Well, the day it actually has the same functionality as the current free account i may have a look at it again, thus far it looks less than tempting to be honest.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Dec. 11, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- A race for the most popular messaging app has begun among major internet groups and private equity investors: WhatsApp was bought up by Facebook for USD $22 billion, during the most recent round of financing Snapchat was valued at USD $10 billion, and the Chinese top dog of the messaging world, WeChat, is valued at USD $60 billion. Everyone wants to reach the valuable target market that is 15-30 years of age – and in the future this won't be achieved by using TV or radio, but by using smartphones and messaging applications.
A photo accompanying this release is available at http://www.globenewswire.com/newsroom/prs/?pkgid=29597
With Fundamental Applications Corp. (CSE:FUN) (WKN: A12DSM/ISIN: CA36080U1003), a company recently listed on the stock exchange, it is possible for the first time to profit from the success of an upcoming messaging application right from the outset. Julian Ing, a pioneer of app development, and his messenger app "Serum".
With Fundamental Applications and its "Serum" Messenger, you're not just supporting the boom of messaging services, but also the highly successful app-pioneer behind the "Serum" application – Julian Ing.
Julian Ing, the head of Fundamental Applications Corp., is considered to be one of the pioneers of the social gaming industry. Games developed by Julian are among the most successful games on Facebook and Zynga and have received multiple awards. Now, with the first anonymous messenger, Julian Ing hopes to conquer the messenger market.
Currently, Fundamental shares are listed at EUR 0.20 and hold enormous potential. Based on the standard valuations of the messenger app sector, the shares should have a fair value of EUR 1.20 by the third quarter of 2015 – and this is only a conservative estimate.
A Snapchat user is currently valued at USD $382. A WeChat user is valued at USD $200. A WhatsApp user is "only" valued at USD $42. However, WhatsApp transactions are also the oldest by far and in the meantime the valuation of messaging apps has further increased.
Even if you halve the conservative WhatsApp valuation (USD $21 per user), Fundamental Apps could be worth EUR 17.1 million in the third quarter of 2015, which is EUR 1.20 per share. Within that time, the company plans to break through the barrier of 1 million users.
For the first time, private investors can invest in the app from the outset!
To date, only institutional investors could earn money through WhatsApp, Snapchat or WeChat. With its unique features, "Serum" has the potential to follow in the footsteps of these successful messaging apps.
As a listed shareholder of Fundamental Applications (CSE:FUN) (WKN: A12DSM/ISIN: CA36080U1003), there is an opportunity to profit from the success of a unique messaging app from the outset. The shares of Fundamental Applications are traded in Germany on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange WKN: A12DSM/ISIN: CA36080U1003 and in Canada on the Canadian Stock Exchange (CSE) under the symbol FUN.

I recently received an email request. This is not the first of such requests I've received, nor will it be the last. Perhaps you received the same request (or have received a similar one in the past). This request asked me for a spec article to be published in a print magazine. Spec in this case means working for free for little or no benefit to myself or my website.
There is a time and a place to work for free. Some of my friends have talked about the benefits of working for free, but this, my friends, THIS is not one of those situations.
Here, read the email yourself. I have edited the note to remove any direct references to the person or the publication. My edits are in brackets and italicized <like this>. I have also bolded parts of the note that I want you to pay special attention to.
–begin email–
Hi, Heather:
I am an editor at <Large National> magazine and a fan of your blog; hope you're well. For our <Christmas Themed> special issue, which is on newsstands September 28 through December 28, I am putting together a story that features Christmas crafts made by bloggers. I would love for you to be a part of the story, if you're interested.
In a nutshell, I'm reaching out to bloggers I admire and inviting you to submit a craft for possible inclusion* in the story. Of the submissions, we'll ultimately choose about six designs to photograph.** The published story will include step-by-step instructions for creating the craft at home, as well as give full credit to you and your site for the idea.
I'm sure it won't surprise you that our readers love easy, very doable and not intimidating crafts. Of course, the prettier and simpler, the better (one of our favorite crafts was a pine cone made out of felt and wooden beads), and any time an item can be used in a surprising way, the readers love it (for example, we're doing a story about crafts you can make using candy in an upcoming issue).
If you're interested in submitting a craft, I would need to have it here in our offices no later than Monday, June 21. And while, unfortunately, due to budget constraints, I cannot pay for the idea or reimburse for supplies***, I can certainly send you a UPS slip so that you can ship the craft to me free of charge. We'll be putting the story* on our website, <LargeNationalMagazine.com>, as well, so I'm sure there will be additional opportunities for cross-promotion; the only thing I'd ask is that you wait to run the craft on your own site until our story hits stands.
That's my pitch. Hope you're interested, and happy to answer any questions you may have. Thanks so much for your time!
<Magazine Writer/Editor>
—end email–
*possible inclusion, the story = they are asking me for spec work – a craft project with photos and written instructions – that MIGHT appear in their publication, but there is no guarantee that my work will be featured
**we'll ultimately choose about six designs to photograph = again, a request for spec work that results in a lottery wherein the most suitable craft projects will be featured. The creators of these craft projects will receive "full credit"
***unfortunately, due to budget constraints, I cannot pay for the idea or reimburse for supplies = this magazine knows it doesn't have to pay for ideas because people will submit free ideas just for the chance to be published. I wonder how many people will happily submit their ideas?
This magazine has a circulation of over 400,000 and a readership of over 2 million. Shame on this major publication for asking for spec work from hard-working bloggers.

What is Spec?
According to No!Spec,
"Spec" has become the short form for any work done on a speculative basis. In other words, any requested work for which a fair and reasonable fee has not been agreed upon, preferably in writing.
There's a movement that is well-known in graphic design circles known as "No Spec." Basically, it's never a good idea to do speculative work for no pay. Now, I think there is a time and place for spec work within certain circles. I think there are certain instances where doing spec work (such as a guest blog post) can be beneficial to both parties and can "pay" in different ways than monetary. Check Sister Diane's article "What IS in it for you?" for more discussion on deciding when to participate in a non-paying opportunity.
When There's Nothing In It For You
Yes, there are occasions when you might want to participate in a spec job, however, when a for-profit corporation that employs dozens or hundreds of people asks me to do free work for them because "they don't have the budget," I excuse myself and run away as fast as I can. If they don't value content highly enough to budget for it, then their priorities are seriously screwed up and I don't want to be affiliated with them in any way.
This request for free content showed me how this particular Old Media publication absolutely doesn't respect New Media. Just because I'm online creating my own corner of the web and pouring in hours of work and sweat for virtually no money doesn't mean I'd be glad to give you my hard work for nothing. I'm not such a rube that I'll give into your request just because I'm flattered. And I'll admit, I am flattered. Any time I get an email from a PR company or an editor (any level) of a print magazine, or someone connected with Old Media, my first impulse is to feel flattered. And then when I read further, I am either happy to discover that this particular member of Old Media values my work and is prepared to pay me for it, or disgusted to find out that they admire me enough to approach me, but not enough to pay for my "virtual" content to become hard-copy content.
There's a reason why Old Media is becoming old.
What I Said to <Large National Magazine>
–begin email–
Hi <Person Who Approached Me>,
Thanks for thinking of me. At this point, I can't do any projects on spec for no money. Let me know if you ever need any paid craft project articles!
–end email–
I wanted to write a lot more. My complete response is this blog post!
The Good Magazine Request
I should also say, as a happy postscript to this situation, that this week I got another email from another Old Media print magazine editor, who offered me money to reprint an idea from my blog. Money for content already created. Now THERE'S the example of one right way to approach bloggers for content.
Note to Old Media: I would also be happy to create new content for an editor who offers to pay me for my work.

Project Management Process – Phase 2 – Planning – Develop Project Management Plan (#11 in the Hut Project Management Process)
By John Filicetti
The Project Management Plan is your project guide, outline, and main communications tool and provides a documented basis for making project decisions and for confirming or developing common understanding of project scope among the stakeholders. It also serves as guiding document for project execution and control and provides the rules and limits for your project.
The main inputs for the Project Management Plan are the Requirements Document, the Concept Proposal, the Risk Management Plan, and the Project Schedule. The Requirements Document and the Concept Proposal will provide the project goal, objectives, risks, assumptions, constraints, alignment, and other information. The Project Schedule will provide project timelines and milestones.
The Risk Management Plan allows you to highlight noteworthy risk items. The Project Management Plan should contain the following in the detailed level necessary for project information.
- The Project Background should introduce the customer environment leading to the change requiring the project. The information is collected during Requirements gathering.
- The Project Goal should provide a clear statement of what the project team will accomplish by project implementation. Proper scope definition is critical to project success and will avoid scope creep.
- Project Objectives or Scope Statement should be measurable criteria that must be met for the project to be considered successful in terms of cost, schedule, or quality measures. The Objectives should define what is in scope for the project and also what is out of scope for the project. The objectives will be matched to project deliverables during the Acceptance of Deployed Solution during the Deployment phase.
- Solution Approach outlines the approach taken by the Project Team to meet project objectives. There are a number of solution approaches to take for an application development project and the one chosen should be explained in this section.
- The Project Management Plan should spell out and clear up any project ambiguities by documenting Assumptions and Constraints.
- Assumptions are factors that, for planning purposes, will be considered to be true, real, or certain. Assumptions generally involve a degree of risk and may be identified here or they may be a part of risk identification. Never assume anything on a project; write it down and have it validated!
- Constraints are factors that will limit the project management team's options. For example, if substantial project resources will be needed, more consideration will need to be given to handling contract information. When a project is performed under contract, there are often specific contractual provisions that affect communications and project planning. Some projects have constraints such as mandatory government rules
- A project Risk Assessment and Mitigation Plan should be completed prior to entering data into the project plan. A matrix of the high risk items along with high-level management or mitigation plans to address the risk is provided in the Project Management Plan.
- After review of the requirements and Project Schedule, a Staffing or Resource Plan can be created for the project implementation. Resource planning involves determining what physical resources (people, equipment, materials) and what quantities of each should be used to perform project activities. It is a good practice to provide an organization chart for quick reference and define roles and responsibilities in this section of the Project Management Plan.
- The schedule section of the plan should contain your project Work Breakdown Structure (WBS), Project Timeframe, and project milestones.
- After review of the Project Schedule, a Cost Plan and budget can be added to the Project Management Plan at the detail level required. In some cases, the Cost Plan might be preliminary until it can be updated with an addendum to the Project Management Plan during the Implementation Phase or as more details of the project become available. The budgeting of the project must be closely coordinated with cost estimating and will improve as more actual information is captured at the completion of many projects.
- All projects require a Communications Plan detailing what will be communicated, when it will be communicated, and who is going to do the communications. The Communications Plan is an important factor for project success because it ensures the proper communication flow and consistency. Determine the information and communications needs of the stakeholders such as:
- Who needs what information?
- When will they need it?
- How will it be given to them?
The majority of communications planning is done as part of the earliest project phases but should be reviewed regularly throughout the project and revised as needed to ensure continued applicability. Any project review will ask the customer if they are getting the right kind and amount of information. The Communications Plan should provide an outline of the agenda for all status meetings so the project team and stakeholders know what to expect.
- If your project has procurement needs, a Procurement Plan should be completed.
- The Procurement Plan should provide the quantity and timing for all items needed. An inventory should be included upon receipt of any item on the Procurement Plan.
- The Project Management Plan also outlines the Change, Issues, and Document Management Plans.
- Create the Project Management Plan containing:
- Project goal, objectives, and what is in and out of scope
- Project assumptions and constraints
- Project solution approach
- Risk Items from Project Risk Management Plan
- Resource Plan with roles and responsibilities
- Project WBS and Project Schedule milestones
- Project Communications Plan identifying key roles and appropriate communications media
- Project Budget and Cost Plan
- Project Quality Plan
- Change Control Plan
- Issues Control and Escalation Plan
- Project Procurement Plan
Owner of This Step
- Project Manager

From California, USA:
Are there any particular groups that are more likely to have diabetes than any others?
The answer to this question depends somewhat on what kind of diabetes you are talking about. type 2 diabetes in both children and adults is to a large extent related to diet and exercise; but even so certain groups such as the Pima Indians and circumpolar populations seem especially at risk. In the case of rarer forms of diabetes such as the mitochondrial ones and the many forms of Maturity Onset Diabetes of the Young, any differences are related to the distribution of the abnormal gene.
In the case of your friend, who I imagine has type 1A (autoimmune) diabetes, the population incidence is related in part to genetic differences in HLA type and several other genes but also to differences in the unknown environmental factors that trigger the disorder in the susceptible. Thus people in Finland, in Scotland and Sardinia are much more likely to develop diabetes than Caucasians in North America and very much more likely than in a Chinese population. Similarly people with the HLA pattern DR3/DR4 are significantly more vulnerable than other types, some of which may even be protective..

Make it POP!
A common phrase at POP Bakery now, we tried making beautiful POPs with orange and purple flowers and then green ones with pink flowers for extra POP factor, and they had exactly that, but when I uploaded the image onto my computer it seems that my camera must be on the way out, it created coincidently this POP art style image- how convenient!

An artistic Day
Today was quite enough for me to go to a fabulous new art shop- CASS Art which has just opened in Hampstead and buy some fun new pro-markers. Some for my POP designs and some for my sister who is mega artistic and needs to get back on it and start drawing again, she is in fashion so thought it would be good for her to prep her pages each week which can be found n You Magazine! Here are my plans for halloween, think the Jack Skull was the most successful, and multi-coloured pumpkins should be fun! Will put up my sisters pics once she manages a few!

A number of Northeast states are considering adding or expanding early voting, according to a story in The Hill.
I hope that administrators and legislators in the states make sure they make a decision based on comprehensive and accurate information and not rely on anecdote.
Most importantly, early voting has a complicated relationship to overall voter turnout. Most studies show a small but positive relationship, though one prominent study reports a negative relationship. If you put in more early voting locations, more citizens vote early (but it's not clear if more voters overall cast a ballot).
Jan Leighley and Jonathan Nagler put it best in a recent blog posting (in the context of voter registration laws): higher turnout depends mostly on parties and candidates, not on changes to voting laws.
The point? New Hampshire Secretary of State Bill Gardner is quoted in the story and his statement reflects many common misconceptions about early voting:
"We're seeing turnout nationally go down in each of the last three elections even as more and more states rush to make it easier to vote by having early voting,"
Misconception 1: there has been no "rush" to add early voting options since 2008. The rate of states adding early voting provisions has slowed substantially as we get down the final 13 holdouts (according to the National Conference of State Legislatures, 37 states plus DC offered some form of early voting in 2016, compared to 36 plus DC in 2012, and 34 in 2008).
Misconception 2: turnout has not declined for the last three cycles. Final totals in 2016 appear to be slightly up from 2012 and about 2% lower than 2008.
Misconception 3: national turnout is the best way to understand the impact of state and local laws. National totals disguise enormous variation in turnout between and within states, competitiveness in statewide races, and differences in rules and laws. There is also some scattered evidence that early voting benefits some subpopulations more than others, and this can be overlooked in national and even statewide totals.
The second point in the article is harder to address: the costs of early voting. Michael McDonald suggests that there is resistance to early voting in the Northeast because most of these states administer elections at the township level. McDonald is right to highlight the importance of providing sufficient funding to jurisdictions to conduct elections, regardless of what options are offered (budgets were the most common point of discussion at a recent NCSL gathering).
All I'd add here is that we don't have a clear sense of how much early voting costs, and whether cost savings can be obtained by strategically reallocating resources between early voting and election day voting (though mis-forecasts of voting turnout can turn disastrous).
The takeaway is that states considering adding early voting options should consider them mostly on the grounds of voter convenience, on how well the options can be adapted to the conditions faced by local jurisdictions, and only lastly on how they may increase overall turnout.

General GPS info linkgreenspun.com : LUSENET : TimeBomb 2000 (Y2000) : One Thread
Too many questions about GPS lately. Try this link for general info:
GPS from the surveyors angle mostly. New equipment guide for this year.
-- Paul Davis (firstname.lastname@example.com), August 13, 1999
Here is the site maintained by the Coast Guard about GPS Rollover week:
Here is the site maintained by the Coast Gueard that lists manufacturers of GPS receivers:
http://www.navcen.uscg.mil/gps/geninfo/y2k/gpsmanufacturers/manufactur ers.html
I strongly advise you to take a few minutes and go to both these sites. Please note that the Coast Guard is providing this info as a public service, and that GPS end-users are advised to contact the manufacturers to ascertain the 'readiness' of any equipment.
Go to some of the manufacturer sites. See what they are manufacturing. See what they say (or don't say) about the rollover and their products.
If you have read that only 'old' GPS equipment will fail, go to the site for Corvallis Microtechnologies and read what they say about units that were shipped prior to January 1999. No, my fingers didn't slip. At least they have patches or upgrades available.
Last, but not least, think about how very little has been said about this. Ask around. See how many blank faces you can count. Then think about what we've all been learning about interconnectivity and the dangers of incorrect data.
Fun, ain't it?
-- Arewyn (email@example.com), August 13, 1999.
Another recent, informative article can be found here:
"Global Positioning System calendar faces rollover"
-- Linkmeister (email@example.com), August 13, 1999.
Paul, thanks for bringing up the subject.
-- Carlos (firstname.lastname@example.com), August 13, 1999.
Thanks for link,
Now that Nikoli has me glued to GPS rollover, I was grateful to find the info.
-- Moore Dinty moore (firstname.lastname@example.com), August 14, 1999.
I don't really expect that much in the way of trouble for large organizations or the military from the GPS rollover - but some small orgs or foreign concerns may have some problems. Depends on whether or not they have paid attention to the warnings to check their receivers.
The scary warnings on the mfrs sites, BTW, are meant to cut liability when someone uses a GPS receiver for something it REALLY isn't meant to be used for - like the crazy Korean airliner that landed in the US last year and was found to have flown all the way with only the pilots personal GPS hand-held for nav instruments. As for boats, some places you only have a safe channel a couple of hundred yards wide - and civilian quality GPS isn't safe in that narrow a channel. (And if you use military GPS and turn off the differential analyzer, and forget to tell the equipment you turned that part of it off - it is apt to tell you that you just landed in China or something.)
-- Paul Davis (email@example.com), August 14, 1999.

ASUS F552EA laptop with battery problems
I have had the F552EA laptop for three years or so. But the battery started doing some weird stuff. The led indicator og the battery blinked green and orange. It wasn't the drivers and it wasn't the adapter. Everything was perfect but the battery. I couldn't use it without the adapter because the laptop would turn off really fast. So, after trying a few things, nothing helped.
Thank you.
