The Russian separatists who shot down MH17 allegedly thought it was a military target -- though it was easily distinguishable as a commercial plane.
The truth about the destruction of MH17 has come out far faster than the baffling and totally unrelated mystery of the disappearance of MH370 on March 8. But a crucial question remains: what was the commercial jet doing flying over a war zone in the first place?
The jet and its 298 souls were targeted, tracked and destroyed by a modern warfare surface-to-air missile (SAM) launched by Russian separatists controlling the part of the eastern Ukraine, where it crashed to earth.
If as intelligence sources have unambiguously suggested this SAM was a Russian-made BUK, it requires a very deliberate drill by a launch squad that chose the target, locked onto it, and pressed the fire button the moment the control system had computed the intercept trajectory and loaded it into the already primed missile.
If the now widely circulated recording of conversations by separatists involved in the launch are the real thing, the jet was shot down in the belief that it was a military target.
As one voice is heard saying, after the bodies of adults and children are found after the kill, "they must have been carrying spies ….. What are they doing flying here? …. This is a fucking war."
But some airlines had been routinely flying over Ukrainian airspace since the war started.
Visibility is shown in the newscasts as being more than adequate for a normal sighted adult to have recognized MH17 for what it was — a commercial flight. At 33,000 feet the shape and even livery of a large airliner is quite obvious, and the flight was quite obviously not military in its profile or other characteristics.
But with the attitude conveyed by the people in the alleged recording of the conversations after the missile hit, it is only by chance that the SAM-launching platoon didn't bring down an even larger A380.
The destruction of MH17 raises exceptionally awkward questions for civil aviation authorities and air traffic control systems in general. Whatever logic was employed in deciding that it was safe to fly over a war zone at more than 32,000 feet, it was woefully ignorant of the capabilities of modern SAM systems, which in their heavier more capable forms are intended to destroy targets that may be supersonic and flying at much higher altitudes.
It all smacks of decision-making that favoured fuel-saving corridors over routes that avoided the risks of conflicts in which contemporary weapons technology is being used.

Zero Hedge casts a critical eye over the "evidence"
Normally lining up with the US over a dispute with Russia comes at zero political cost, but starting WWIII on the basis of a YouTube video is pretty crap.
As in the case of MH370 this aircraft was likely high-jacked by remote control.
get real, many other airlines have been flying that route as well, your picking on malaysian airlines due to the other tragedy that happened months ago
The big question remaining is how did the rebels get a BUK. Was it supplied by the Russians to the rebels, or did the rebels manage to confiscate it from the Ukraine forces (and manage to learn how to use it)?
The significance of this is not so much the loss of a civilian plane but in the wider geo-political consequences. It could be a glass half-full if it rebounds against Putin's regressive and aggressive attempts to overturn the incursion of democracy into "his" part of the world.
Where are the black boxes and who has them in their possession?
I sent the following letter to Bill Shorten this morning. Worth posting here also:
A terrible tragedy happened this morning with the shooting down of MH17 over the war zone of eastern Ukraine. You made some comments on commercial TV to the effect that it was shot down by "pro-Russian terrorists". This may or may not prove to be the case but I was shocked that you would use the language of the demented oligarch and US-installed and propped-up puppet president of Ukraine Poroshenko. The truer definition of his opponents in the east should be "anti-Kiev separatists" who want nothing to do with his regime which has stated its intent of "ethnically cleansing" or worse the Russian-speaking population of the region.
Are you truly not aware that the civil war in Ukraine was sparked off by US interference in Ukraine's internal affairs since the beginning of this year? Are you not aware that the likes of Victoria Nuland, John McCain and Joe Biden were in Kiev addressing the Maidan rallies before the movement was high-jacked by well-organised paramilitary thugs of neo-fascist persuasion, resulting in the putsch which toppled the corrupt but nevertheless legal government?
Are you further not aware of the fact that when a war starts events spiral out of control, creating a fog in which super-hyped young men with powerful weapons make mistakes, and civilians who blunder into a war zone become victims? The MH17 incident I suggest was the result of a long chain of events, and what are needed now are cooler heads in a highly-charged atmosphere, to see the bigger picture and step back from the brink. I hope you are capable of this but from your comments above I am not so sure.
I offer one other piece of "intelligence" for your consideration. At the D-Day commemoration in Normandy, Tony Abbott was spotted in news footage having a quiet chat with the above-mentioned Poroshenko. My suspicious mind suspected they were discussing the likelihood of a 911-type event to stir up some jingoistic militancy for their mutual political advantage. I even made a comment in this regard to Crikey at the time. Imagine me waking this morning to find that suspicion coming to pass.
So please Bill Shorten, I am an ALP supporter (and member), and I ask you to see the bigger picture, and differentiate yourself and our party from the jingoistic rantings that we can now expect from the conservative side.
"Visibility is shown in the newscasts as being more than adequate for a normal sighted adult to have recognized MH17 for what it was — a commercial flight."
Yes, but with aid of a telescopic device. I live almost under the busiest flight corridor in Australia and I can if not impeded by cloud, identify aircraft at cruise altitude with an ordinary pair of binoculars. You would've thought that those responsible for launching a BUK would've used a far superior visual aid.
Wouldn't the air traffic control systems or whatever in Ukraine have been able to identify what and who the Malaysian Airlines plane was? Even allowing for them maybe not being able to see it?
Bushby Jane, the answer is yes. Airliners have transponders which constantly transmit flight parameters including identification. These/some parameters get fed inter alia to the website Flightradar24.com, though on some routes like Sydney to Canberra I think that info is suppressed or filtered out. Ben might know more about that.
"Visibility is shown in the newscasts as being more than adequate for a normal sighted adult to have recognized MH17 for what it was — a commercial flight. At 33,000 feet the shape and even livery of a large airliner is quite obvious, and the flight was quite obviously not military in its profile or other characteristics."
No. Visual identification is not normally used, this is because the aircraft target is initially too far away: Missiles are not launched when the aircraft is overhead, but before it is above the radar. This is standard tactical doctrine for the reasons of shortening flight missile flight time (which is limited), easing intercept geometry and shooting down the aircraft before it can damage you.
The missile radar operator procedure is that the tracking radar will acquire the aircraft at long range. At 30,000 ft, 100km range is easily possible with a modern radar. A firing solution will be generated and the missile launched and guided by a separate radar sub-system.
The whole event may also be compounded by the fact that they thought they were shooting down an Antonov transport, which would look broadly similar visually.
The Antonov transport might also fly at higher altitudes to avoid man portable missiles, which is common tactical doctrine. It would probably not follow a commercial flight track, though.
The radar might have had the capability to interrogate the transponder on commercial flights as part of its identification friend or foe (IFF) system.
In the fog of war the mistake is easy to make. The USS Vincenes shot down Iran Air Flight 655 in 1988 at a range of 15-20km. The radar systems on the USS Vincenes would probably have been better that the Russian system. The Vincenes felt directly threatened, following the shooting of the USS Stark, which made a quick firing decision imperative, though.
This is the sort of tragic mistake that happens in a war.
Having flown with Malaysia Airlines just 10 days ago, en-route LHR-KL, I was indeed surprised (if not quietly concerned) to watch our flight track over the Ukraine. Broad daylight and CAVOK.
I agree with Ben Sandilands that this looks like a fundamental failure of the application of "duty of care" on behalf of the Malaysia Airlines as well as others (Singapore Airlines no less!). This apparent failure is exacerbated by the fact that other airlines e.g.Qantas, have diverted around the area for months. It also surprises me to see that the intended track of MH17 (and my flight MH 2) was over Afghanistan and neighboring Pakistan as well!
Another critical casting of the eye at Zero Hedge indicates that MH17 was off course.
Well said Iskandar. Sad to say now looking forward to progress in a certain Victorian police investigation. Look it up.
Mr Sandilands, Unless you have access to information not known to the likely investigators of this tragedy you should be very careful in ascribing this terrorist act to "pro-Russian separatists". It may or may not have been a Russian built missile, again too soon to tell. But if it was then you overlook the fact that until very recently Russia was the major supplier of weaponry to the Ukraine government, until the American inspired coup that took place.
You might also like to consider the fact that President Putin's plane flew over the same spot where MH17 was shot down 37 minutes later. At 10,000 metres the Presidential plane had similar looking colours and configuration as MH17.
It is at least a plausible working hypotheses that the missile was intended for Putin's plane and that MH17 was simply unlucky. If that is the case, then the question is: cui bono? Hardly pro-Russian "separatists".
If it was shot out of the sky, why in the footage being used by all media of the impact explosion is there no column of smoke going down towards the impact site? Instead, the sky above the explosion smoke is quite clear. You'd think if it was shot it would have started burning up.
Otherwise, the Murdoch-dominated Australian media coverage of this is all building on the assumption that Russia and Putin are evil, so if they investigate it won't be "independent", but if the US does the investigation it will be. In fact, the US bears most responsibility, because its State Department backed the violent neo-Nazis to topple the elected Ukrainian government, as part of their strategy of strategically encircling Russia. Read Malcolm Fraser's observations from March. If michael r james believes violent neo-Nazis who bash opposition politicians and journos in broad daylight and attack ordinary people for speaking Russian are "an incursion of democracy", then democracy is not something to value.
As suggested, this incident should prompt a reassessment of routing over conflict zones . However surely pointing fingers at Malaysia and others recently flying over eastern Ukraine in recent months is a little off the mark. What appears to be needed is a review of air operator routing risk assessment s at large, as well as those of air traffic control bodies in flight information regions which also dictate routes taken by commercial flights. This might also be an opportunity for ICAO to attempt to agree on guidelines. Unfortunately waiting for airlines to up their game on their own is unlikely to result in the type of response that this tragedy deserve to trigger
Unless conclusively proven (not just on the say-so of US intelligence sources) I question whether a missile was involved and suggest electronic hijacking remains a possibility for the time being – that is, the plane could have been remotely flown into the ground.
Pearl Harbor, Gulf of Tonkin, WMD, MH17 ? War-mongers call "appeasers" naive but it is naive to believe the lies that start wars, time after time.
JO'N is the most likely, esp given that traffic in commercial lanes is, and was, as reported a daily occurrence by numerous airlines.
Let's see how Mudorc et al manage to spin if it turns out to be anti-russian forces.
#12 j.oneill
"President Putin's plane flew over the same spot where MH17 was shot down 37 minutes later."
That sounds like ridiculous nonsense. Picked up from a conspiracist blog?
Quite apart from it not being on any of the main news services, it seem extremely improbable that Putin would do something so risky or provocative (unless it was sanctioned by Ukraine, then why wouldn't the media be reporting it?).
Further, if it was Ukrainian they would have been using all their standard radars to follow the plane, and would have known from both route and its transponder that it (MH17) was not Putin and vice versa.
One can see, however, the origin of the fantasy, as it would have been particularly poetic if Putin had copped it with a Russian-made missile, while overflying a sovereign nation he had turned into chaos. (Even better if it was via his own pro-Russian insurgents randomly firing missiles at anything in the skies).
I agree with j.oneill. Irrespective of the stories being broadcast through the media, it's too early to say whether the culprits are "pro-Russian separatists" or the Ukraine government. Remember in war the first casualty is the truth.
Assuming this is a video of the crash, it seems likely the plane exploded on the ground not in the air. Note the absence of smoke and fire prior to impact. Electronic hijack is plausible ie remotely flown into the ground. If US intelligence is in contradiction of the facts, the US intelligence is in on it.
Well Iskander I do hope Shorten takes note of your letter to him but I very much doubt it. It is his job, as it is Abbott's to preach the Washington line and if that line is not explicitly spelled out for a particular occasion, then to work out how Washington would likely spin it and follow suit.
They do this in response to the Israeli attacks on occupied Palestine and on events in Venezuela etc etc.
I'm reluctant to, but will, admit that I warmed to Abbott's robust response. But is anyone listening to this voice?
As I've said elsewhere, this is just another 'accident' brought about by warfare (not terrorism!) using increasingly and unnecessarily powerful weapons. The US was responsible for a similar accident in July 1988, killing 290 people.
So those seeking to blame Russia should consider history a little more carefully!
The eastern Ukraine is a known war zone.
Parts of Syria, Israel, Afghanistan and numerous other places are subject to military activity of a war like nature.
The American FAA have issued advice to American airline operators not to overfly eastern Ukraine.
Qantas have diverted their flights around the Ukraine for more than two months.
Whilst I abhor the destruction of MH17 (and its 298 paxs & crew) by military means, I still consider that Malaysia Airlines as well as those other airlines (apparently including Singapore Airlines) have seen fit to regularly transit this airspace. The ugly head of "commercial expedience" perhaps?
@ Liz Connor at 9:45 am
So, in what way should we consider history more carefully? Because one superpower has incompetently shot down a passenger airline in the past means we should just be indifferent every time it happens?
Doh, just the usual superpower powerplay? Shrugs and moves on to watch next ep of GoT ….
This incident doesn't really involve the Americans at all, and in all likelihood they will not play any meaningful part in any outcome. (Alas, Obama being what he is.)
The significant difference this time is that a superpower (Russia) has provided an advanced type of weapon to a bunch of untrained and ill-disciplined, unaccountable insurgents, as part of a deliberate attempt to destabilize another country.
Weirdly, a modicum of power in this matter rests, at least partially, within Abbott's and Australia's hands. (now doesn't that wake you up a bit from your doziness and send a shudder down the spine?) If we allow Putin to attend the G20 in Brisbane then the west has truly abdicated any claim to responsible governance.
Malaysian Airlines are now flying a new course, over Syria! I have watch an A380 and a 777 fly directly over Syria. Is that sensible? I wouldn't fly with them, no way, this just shows how inept they are in my opinion. Check Flightradar .com and see for yourself.
I'm not trying to make light of what happened, but at 33,000 feet the shape and livery of the aircraft would not be obvious, you might not even be able to see the airplane with the naked eye.
All tragically similar to the shooting down of an Iranian civilian airliner by the USS Vincennes with the loss of 290 lives. Except on that occaision there was no international condemnation.
@michael r james
I suppose your post is all based on fact not ideologically derived assertions nurtured by the corporate media and Western warmongers. Is this right? Does Obama not deserve to be barred from the G20 too for his propensity to bomb the world into democracy and his unstinting support of that terrorist state, Israel? Should Abbott not bar Abbott from the same G20 talk fest for his support of Obama, Israel and the Sri Lankan government – all major perpetrators of war crimes?
@Tracey R
"In the fog of war the mistake is easy to make."
Colossal mistakes, would you not agree? What do you think about the commander of the warship involved subsequently being decorated for his naval services? And how do think the relatives and friends of the 554 victims resulting from the downing of the aircraft and tit-for-tat, feel about that?
@Michael r james at 2:30pm
Liz Connor appears to me to be saying that because the US navy shot down a climbing airliner flying in established air corridor and called it an "accident", morally the US doesn't have a leg to stand on in criticizing others who have shot down an airliner and claim it to have been an "accident".
I agree with the conclusion drawn by this article. But this:
"Visibility is shown in the newscasts as being more than adequate for a normal sighted adult to have recognized MH17 for what it was — a commercial flight. At 33,000 feet the shape and even livery of a large airliner is quite obvious, and the flight was quite obviously not military in its profile or other characteristics."
I doubt that a "normal sighted adult" could tell you the markings on a plane flying at 33,000 feet, unless they had some sort of visual enhancer, like binoculars. In any case, the SAM crew would be using radar to track aircraft. Not the mark 1 eyeball.
So much emotion, so few facts. What Nomad calls Abbott's "robust" response is in fact a rush to judgment on an entirely inappropriate scale. Abbott's initial caution rapidly changed and the likely reason is that he received the word from Washington: blame Russia and to hell with the evidence.
Some further facts have emerged. It is likely that the plane was shot down with a missile of a type not in the possession of the so-called "rebels", as acknowledged by a Ukrainian military spokesman.
The missile in question is in Russian and Ukrainian possession.
A recording released by the Ukrainians purporting to be a conversation about the disaster was shown to have been recorded the day before. When someone starts faking evidence the smell of the rate gets stronger.
An Ukrainian military unit that operates surface to air missiles was in the area from whence the missile was fired having arrived there on Wednesday.
The rest is manufactured hysteria, cynically using the tragedy and the grief of Australians and others to further demonise Russia in general and Putin in particular. As Westral notes, there was no comparable outrage when the USS Vincennes shot down an Iranian civilian airline with almost the same number of deaths as MH17. The Australian government of the day was notably restrained.
The Israeli army has launched another illegal war and killed hundreds of civilians including children. Again, there is a stunning silence from Abbott and Bishop about this ongoing outrage.
I return to the point I made in my first post: cui bono? I have yet to see a single convincing reason why Russia would do such a deed knowing the terrible downside for them. I can however think of many reasons why the US and NATO backed neo-Nazi government in Kiev would want to stage such an incident. Operation Gladio provides one such template and there are others.
Would it not be prudent to use our energies to ensure that there is a fair and independent investigation before the world blunders into yet another conflagration?
Hi Ben
Just on a technical matter of the SA-11 missile system, the missile isn't "downloaded" with the target information – it will be a semi active radar homing type that chases the reflection off the target from the control unit. (this is how military pilots know they are targeted by a SAM – they have a sensor that warns them of the radar lock). Once the missile is close enough, a radar in the missile is used for terminal guidance. The control radar can also issue guidance to the missile "in flight".
These things need a trained four man crew to operate. For example, most American jets over Vietnam in the early part of the war shot down by SAMs were shot down by Soviet operated batteries, not North Vietnamese ones.
"Was MH17 flying through warzone to save fuel? Yes, it was! Why? Malaysian Airlines is in deep financial trouble, after past occurrences of faults and problems with air-crafts maintenance and corruption.Now they have lost a plane they can divert from the area.why yes now and no then? The only responsible party is Malaysian Airlines, it should not have allowed its planes to fly over war-zones! Not even ones were only stones are thrown!https://vid.me/tPq
They are not pro-Russian separatists. They are anti-Kiev regime rebels.. Many of them are from Ukrainian army which was basically disbanded/ much reduced some years ago. Under the Soviets, Donieck was a military industry region. They made lots of weapons for the Warsaw Pact. At one stage, under the Soviets, BUK was also produced at Donieck. Many of the rebels are professional military people.
And they do not want to be 'separatists'. They want to be federated with Ukraine – not with Russia.
I am really surprised that nobody really knows how this incredible tragedy happened, but many seem to know who is responsible.
Polish media published articles about Polish weapons going to the Kiev government. But none of them would be BUK- like.
And, for some reasons we still don't know what happened to the previous Malaysian passenger plane. We do not speculate, just because it did not disappear over the Ukraine?
All my thoughts go to all those people who lost their lives just because they were in the wrong plane… another one.
@Rena Zurawel
I find what you say very very interesting and gels with Philip William's report on the ABC News tonight. It seems a lot of us have been wrong in our thinking on this. Do you think these anti-Kiev regime rebels deliberately brought down MH17 and if so, do you have any thoughts on what they had to gain by doing that?
Ben Sandilands' article (see above) asked the unanswered and most cogent question to date as regards this tragic and dreadful event:
MH17: why a commercial jet was flying over a war zone?
I too have asked the same question and continue to do so.
Aircraft engaged in regular public transport operations all over the world are daily required to deviate from their otherwise optimum tracks around all manner of activities not conducive to their otherwise safe operation. The following are just a few examples:
* diversion around Prohibited Areas so declared to protect all parties from activities such as air-to-air combat practice, air-to-ground bombing & gunnery practice, military gunnery practice both over land and sea, security sensitive communication bases, rocket launch and retrieval ranges
*areas of known severe weather e.g. cyclones and hurricanes, areas of extensive thunderstorms and associated hazardous weather
*areas of known active volcanic activity
*areas of known warfare
Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran have all been areas of known warfare activity and therefore "no-go" zones for all aircraft not engaged in the warfare or in support of it.
The question therefore remains, and to this point in time, remains unanswered.
I will also add that having been engaged in the aviation industry for many years let me assure the sceptics that, given the right conditions of light and visiblity, it is by no means impossible to identify, by both aircraft type (size, contrail etc) and markings/colour, jet aircraft at their lower cruising flight levels. With a simple pair of binoculars it is even more so.
More evidence is emerging that needs to be evaluated. There are reports that a Spanish air traffic controller working in Kiev saw two fighter jets accompanying MH17 until shortly before it disappeared from radar. He has tweeted about this, and also that the air traffic records were immediately confiscated by Ukrainian security Police.
According to the air traffic controller those records would also show that MH17 was diverted in its flight path so that it flew over the Donetsk region. All of this requires verification. One logical source for that verification would be Russian air defence systems that were operational on the Ukraine-Russia border.
Those systems would show, inter alia, the type of missile fired, when the missile's radar locked onto MH17, where exactly it was fired from and much else. All sophisticated air defence systems have this capability including that of the Americans. American intelligence has surely advised Obama of this fact. Even Abbott should have been similarly advised by the Australian intelligence agencies.
The obvious point is that when Putin promises co-operation, as he has reportedly done overnight in a conversation with Abbott, then that co-operation should include the release of Russian intelligence data from their border security. If we don't ask for it, that opens up one negative inference, and if the Russians refuse, that opens another.
In the meantime we should avoid jumping to the stupid and ill-informed conclusions that characterise political comment thus far, and sadly, media comment as well.
What drivel.
The only alternative roue is through Lebanon-Syria-Israel-Iraq – not exactly a shortage of missiles round there.
@"At 33,000 feet the shape and even livery of a large airliner is quite obvious,"
Garbage. It's a smudge in the sky.
@"Bushby Jane, the answer is yes. Airliners have transponders which constantly transmit flight parameters including identification."
As the missing MH370 demonstrated, that statement is completely wrong. The only people who know the exact location of a plane are the flight crew.
In my previous post I raised the point that the Russians should be asked for their intelligence data. On Monday (yesterday) the Russians did precisely that. General Kartopolov told a media conference, complete with maps, photos, satellite images etc, that a Ukrainian SU-25 fighter was flying at the same altitude only 3-5km from MH17. General K also said showed satellite images of a Ukrainian BUK missile unit in the Donetsk region on the same day as MH17 flew overhead.
The Russian detection systems also showed that an American satellite was overhead at the precise time that MH17 was hit by a missile. He said that the Americans should release their satellite images as Russia had done.
The Russian data also show that MH17 was diverted by Kiev air traffic control from its scheduled route to take it over the Donetsk region, and at 2000 feet lower altitude than in its flight plan.
The full video of General Kartopolov's media interview can be easily seen on the web with a complete English translation.
To the best of my knowledge no Australian media outlet, broadcast or print, has disclosed the fact of the Russian defence ministry's release of hard data. And neither have the Americans released the data they must have. We might draw some negative inferences from that silence, and the continued propaganda barrage from Abbott et al when one could reasonably assume that the Australian defence intelligence agencies have told him what I have just set out above.
Well said j.oneill. The arrogance and condescension of the Western media is astounding: "We know who did it, we're not going to fall for Russia's excuses". Pathetic, the lot of them. This is how wars start. Oh no, we can't be wrong, we're so much more sophisticated these days than those naive Australian diggers volunteering in WWI.
I fear that we will grow old & grey indeed before the US releases anything that detracts from the current line. Not that I would believe the Russians to have done the full Monty but, if the NSA routinely pervs on rooftop sunbathers via NORAID, the least they could do would be to bolster their Cold War meme & Axiom of Eevilness (it's like 'troothiness but more banal)case with crisp & clear imagery, telemetry and dispel all doubts.
Perhaps that would suit neither side.
Thanks j.oneill for the general Kartopolov reference.
As an aside I would say that if Western leaders and media were less aggressively reporting anti-Russian rhetoric and opinions and instead applied a more subtle approach to their propaganda they may have sucked more people into believing in the Russian culpability.
The US and its vassals have lost the plot IMO.

The Weekly Health Quiz: Pool Parasites, Death Rattle and Food as Medicine
June 23, 2017,
Uterine prolapse occurs when the womb (uterus) drops down and presses into the vaginal area.
Pelvic relaxation - uterine prolapse; Pelvic floor hernia; Prolapsed uterus
Muscles, ligaments, and other structures hold the uterus in the pelvis. If these tissues are weak or stretched, the uterus drops into the vaginal canal. This is called prolapse.
This condition is more common in women who have had one or more vaginal births.
Other things that can cause or lead to uterine prolapse include:
Repeated straining to have a bowel movement due to long-term constipation can make the problem worse.
Symptoms may be worse when you stand or sit for a long time. Exercise or lifting may also make symptoms worse.
Your health care provider will do a pelvic exam. You will be asked to bear down as if you are trying to push out a baby. This shows how far your uterus has dropped.
Other things the pelvic exam may show are:
You do not need treatment unless you are bothered by the symptoms.
Many women will get treatment by the time the uterus drops to the opening of the vagina.
The following can help you control your symptoms:
Your doctor may recommend placing a rubber or plastic donut-shaped device, into the vagina.This is called a pessary. This device holds the uterus in place.
The pessary may be used for short-term or long-term. The device is fitted for your vagina. Some pessaries are similar to a diaphragm used for birth control.
Pessaries must be cleaned regularly. Sometimes they need to be cleaned by the doctor or nurse. Many women can be taught how to insert, clean, and remove a pessary.
Side effects of pessaries include:
Surgery should not be done until the prolapse symptoms are worse than the risks of having surgery. The type of surgery will depend on:
There are some surgical procedures that can be done without removing the uterus, such as a sacrospinous fixation. This procedure involves using nearby ligaments to support the uterus. Other procedures are also available.
Often, a vaginal hysterectomy is used to correct uterine prolapse. Any sagging of the vaginal walls, urethra, bladder, or rectum can be surgically corrected at the same time.
Most women with mild uterine prolapse do not have symptoms that require treatment. .
Vaginal pessaries can be effective for many women with uterine prolapse.
Surgery often provides very good results. However, some women may need to have the treatment again in the future.
Ulceration and infection of the cervix and vaginal walls may occur in severe cases of uterine prolapse.
Urinary tract infections and other urinary symptoms may occur because of a cystocele. Constipation and hemorrhoids may occur because of a rectocele.
Call your health care provider if you have symptoms of uterine prolapse.
Tightening the pelvic floor muscles using Kegel exercises helps to strengthen the muscles and reduces the risk of uterine prolapse.
Estrogen therapy after menopause may help with vaginal muscle tone.

i own this club in a 2 and 3 hybrid. high flight and workable both ways. im a 14 handicap and have found it to be a go to club for that 200-220 yrd shot.
Having ordered many items from Global Golf in the past, I looked forward to receiving my recent order of a used Idea Tech Hybrid. When it arrived I couldn't have been more shocked, or disappointed. The club sole had mud caked in it, and club head itself had not even been wiped off with even a damp rag. It had been rated to be in "Good" condition.I will order items from Global Golf in the future but will make sure I talk with someone at the company, instead of ordering online.
Nice control on distance ...I am a golf player from HK ...
Good condition and worked fine.

In 1976, Yamaha introduced the CS-80. The price tag ($6,900) put it out of reach of most musicians, and the weight (220 lbs or 100 kg) made it sometimes hard to use on stage, but the qualities of the CS-80, considered as Japans first great synthesizer, made it immediately famous in the music industry.

This is a Vulnerability. For more details about vulnerabilities, please see the Category:vulnerability page.
This category is for tagging common types of software vulnerabilities.
What is a vulnerability?
A vulnerability is a hole or a weakness in the application, which can be a design flaw or an implementation bug, that allows an attacker to cause harm to the stakeholders of an application. Stakeholders include the application owner, application users, and other entities that rely on the application. The term "vulnerability" is often used very loosely. However, here we need to distinguish threats, attacks, and countermeasures.
Please do not post any actual vulnerabilities in products, services, or web applications. Those disclosure reports should be posted to bugtraq or full-disclosure mailing lists.
Examples of vulnerabilities
- Lack of input validation on user input
- Lack of sufficient logging mechanism
- Fail-open error handling
- Not closing the database connection properly
For a great overview, check out the OWASP Top Ten Project. You can read about the top vulnerabilities and download a paper that covers them in detail. Many organizations and agencies use the Top Ten as a way of creating awareness about application security.
How to add a new Vulnerability article
You can follow the instructions to make a new Vulnerability article. Please use the appropriate structure and follow the Tutorial. Be sure to paste the following at the end of your article to make it show up in the Vulnerability category:
NOTE: Before you add a vulnerability, please search and make sure there isn't an equivalent one already. You may want to consider creating a redirect if the topic is the same.

Download Change may be constant, but in today's IT networks there's one type of change that's more constant than others' growth. More people are generating more data than ever before with iPhones, iPads, Android phones and other mobile devices. Each platform and each business operation requires new applications. Work occurs across greater distance. But functions still occur on the network. The result? To accommodate increasingly sophisticated personal devices and wider ranges of service types, networks are expanding exponentially. And the pressure to expand creates larger and more complex network infrastructures, with greater challenges for network management.

Brazil Blog: Bulls Take Home Silver Medal

Day 7, Saturday, Aug. 14, 2010
Team USA endured a tough loss versus Brazil today, we lost 63-69.
Brazil deserves all the credit as they played very well, especially compared to the way we looked. We struggled both offensively and defensively and they took advantage of the mistakes we made.
Check out some official photos from the event.
Of course our main goal was to come home with a gold medal, unfortunately we fell short of that one. However we did have a great learning experience. We learned a lot about our team, and what we need to work on. And there is no doubt that when we start back up again we will be working on our flaws and attempting to perfect everything we possibly can. We also learned about the Brazilian culture. There is a piece of this experience that each of us will take back with us.
It is surprising how one small aspect of our lives and our culture (basketball) can bring together other cultures and people. The tournament not only let us see the talent other areas have, but it also gave us a little insight to something other than what we are used to. We were not only challenged on the court but also in being more accepting and understanding socially.
This was a great opportunity for our team. Our team will be better from it this season but more importantly the experiences gained from the trip will have a positive impact in our lives.
As a whole, the USF Bulls are very thankful we were given this opportunity.
Go Bulls!
Day 6, Friday, Aug. 13
We had somewhat of a laid back day. Everything we did was in preparation for tomorrow.
Although we had a game today and should have been focused on that, our minds were on the upcoming championship game. Luckily that did not backfire on us. We beat Paraguay 98-37 and we didn't have too many problems.
Anthony Crater after the game said, "I don't believe that we came out ready last game, but today we came prepared and together. We didn't shoot as well but our bigs stepped up for us. Tomorrow is the championship so we all know we have to be ready because they will be. We came to represent our country and our school so that's what we'll do."
Although there is room for improvement, our hopes are that we fill the room left by tomorrow.
Coach Heath's post game thoughts were, "We took care of business tonight, we need our rest for a quick turnaround tomorrow. We have a big game against Brazil tomorrow."
Tomorrow is the reason why we are on the trip, it has been our main focus since we were knowledgeable of playing in Brazil. We want the gold and refuse to willingly accept anything less. We play the home team of Brazil once again. Our goal is not to make the same mistakes as last time and end with a win. If we can do that the trip will be a success.
Go Bulls!
Day 5, Thursday, Aug. 12
We were finally given a day off to explore. No one played basketball today, all of the teams took a journey into Salvador.
We started off on a tour to some historic sites, where we all took pictures together and encountered relentless hagglers and bargainers. Although there was much competition on the court, off the court the teams united in harmony and set all competitive natures aside to have a good time together. Special memories were created.
Check out photos from today's adventure.
Before our tour our team did not have any idea what Brazil was really like. We got to go into shopping centers, along the bay, and even deep into the heart of old Salvador, an area where the Bahian culture thrives. After a small shopping excursion for souvenirs, we departed back at our hotel, but the journey for the Americans wasn't even close to over.
In the state of Brazil basketball is not widely popular, especially among the lower class citizens. But they are fighting to change that. Today there was a small camp/opening of a new basketball court in what Americans would see as an under privileged neighborhood. And what we fail to understand is they don't take pride in monetary values or "things" like we do, there were even children out there having a great time that did not own a pair of shoes (Anthony Crater showed a kind heart by giving his away he deserves the praise).
But regardless, as a team the Bulls went and played basketball with the children. And surprisingly they taught us just as much as we taught them. We showed them a few basketball pointers while they showed us a new grateful view on our lives, and life itself. They were great kids, there was a communication barrier with most, but that did not stop us from bonding with each other.
We ended the day at an extravagant mall, surprisingly the mall is not much different than America, other than some different stores. There we bonded as a team and finally were able to get out and take our minds off of basketball.
It was a great day, but now it is time to switch our minds back into our focus mode and continue along our mission.
Go Bulls!
Day 4, Wednesday, Aug. 11
Today was a rainy day in all most all aspects. But they do say that the sun is still always on the other side. Somehow Team USA found the sun even after it had set.
It rained all day, and we had the big game versus Brazil on our mind all day. We knew they would be one of our toughest opponents and we knew that all of the "rockstar love" would quickly diminish. But we kept confidence and hope until our mission was complete.
Check out photos from the victory.
The court was a battle field and the war had started much before the game in everyone's head. Brazil had the favor, and that is a mindset that will uneven the playing field immediately if you let it. Brazil came out with all the momentum and kept it for a long time. By halftime the Bulls had cut the deficit to three points.
Fortunately, if you have will and determination you can change a basketball game. Even when we took the lead, the game was very close. But we did keep the lead all the way to the end. The game ended with a Brazilian player hitting a two point shot which was put on the score board as a three and the game would have gone into overtime, if they had not corrected the scorer's table. Fortunately the Bulls came out with a victory.
Shawn Noriega had the most points with 14 and Augustus Gilchrist next with 12.
"We were very fortunate to win," said Coach Stan Heath after the win. "Give Brazil a lot of credit. They executed and controlled tempo very well. We were up 10 late and let it slip away. And in the last play they hit a shot with their foot on the line that would have tied the game. We don't want to look past our semi-final opponent in Paraguay, but if we win it will set up a terrific final rematch with Brazil."
The Bulls live to fight another day with our heads up, and we keep playing with pride in our country.
Go Bulls!
Day Three, Tuesday, Aug. 10
Today was a pretty smooth day compared to all of our previous days in Brazil. We started the day with a walk-through on top of the hotel over-looking the gorgeous shoreline of the Atlantic Ocean and the vibrant city of Salvador.
Click here for photos from my phone
The food took a turn for the better today. Lunch at the hotel was a little less foreign, and President Genshaft, her husband and our athletic director, Mr. Woolard, treated us to an amazing dinner at one of the finest restaurants in the area. It just reminds us we couldn't be more thankful for all of the opportunities those above us and behind the scenes have given us.
We played against the arrogant team from Chile today. Before the game started some comments were made to the few USF family members we had here by the team members of Chile. We came out with a vengeance and responded with a 103-31 victory.
"The intensity at the beginning of the game set the tone for our team," Coach Heath comments looking back on the game. "Jarrid [Famous], Gus [Gilchrist] and Shaun [Noriega] were on fire offensively and Hugh's [Robertson] defense and rebounding was impressive with 11 boards. The second key was our bench play. Mike [Burwell], LaVonte [Dority], and Toarlyn [Fitzpatrick] kept the intense play going."
Today Burwell and Fitzpatrick each had their debut game.
"There was a lot of excitement finally being back on the court," said Burwell. "It was a great feeling to be out there on the court and being part of our team again."
"I was excited and anxious at the same time to get out there," said Fitzpatrick.
Statistics for today included five guys in double figure scoring Famous-24, Burwell-15, Noriega-14, Dority-12, and Gilchrist with 10, all in the first half.
Tomorrow we face the tough home team of Brazil. The crowd may not be as friendly, but the Bulls have proved before that we are able to overcome slanted adversities.
Go Bulls
Day Two, Monday, Aug. 9
Our first night was just as rough as our first meal. But we made it through regardless if being uncomfortable because of the drastic changes. None the less it only makes us appreciate what we have at home so much more.
After we ate breakfast, we went to the gym for a shoot around. The gym we play at is a school and we came right in the midst of their day and they were extremely welcoming. As soon as we got off the bus they mobbed us with requests of pictures, autographs, and even just to attempt to speak to us (which in most cases was a failure). Nothing but excitement filled the air, not only before our shoot-around but before our game.
Click here for photos of the day
Today we played Columbia, it was a different style of basketball. Colombia was rough, bordering dirty, (but that is a style that we must get used to and be prepared for). The game is also called differently. We did not get foul calls that we are used to, due to their different style of play. But we made the best of it and played hard. The final score was 90-55, and Team USA was able to adjust to the adversities and WIN.
"It was our first game and it showed out there. We adjusted and improved as the game went on. We are happy to get the win, now we must prepare for a tougher opponent," Coach Heath commented after the game.
Shawn Noriega, who ended with a break-out 20 points said, "this game showed a lot about our team, we saw our strengths and weaknesses and what we need to improve on. But we do have a lot of potential for the upcoming season. Tonight we quickly found new but great chemistry."
Other leaders on the court tonight were Augustus Gilchrist with 16 points and 9 rebounds, Jarrid Famous had 16 points, Hugh Robertson finished with 18 points. Tomorrow we play Chile.
Go Bulls!
Day One, Sunday, Aug. 8
After finally awakening and being able to move from a nine-hour flight to the city of Salvador, we look out and it seems as if we landed in a jungle. But relieving enough, five minutes into the bus drive we see the beautiful country of Brazil. Surprisingly without even talking to a native, we were able to figure out a very important part of the Brazilian culture. Every other block or so there was a soccer field, and there were people on every single field playing at seven in the morning.
While driving through the city we see a not too different, but still very exotic way of life. People are very relaxed, everyone is friendly and willing to help. Just as we are curious to their diverse way of life, they are curious about us as well.
Click here for some photos taken with my phone.
Following our arrival to our hotel, we had a couple of hours to recuperate from the extremely long travel hours and all the excitement that didn't hit us until we made it here. The first thing most of us encountered was the foreign food. It wasn't too unusual but we did have trouble finding an appetite our first couple of meals. We share the hotel with all of the other teams in the tournament, and interestingly enough they are just as confused as us, but equally as friendly.
Once we got settled, we left for practice. Although we didn't expect anything different than what we saw, the gym is interesting to say the least. It doesn't seat more than the average high school in the States, there is no air conditioning and the lines on the court are not the same as the what we are used to.
But we have no excuses. We know what we are in Salvador for and we are focused on accomplishing our goals for our school and our country.

I know I am going to get grilled by people saying there are tutorials out there on this, but I haven't been able to spot any easily.
Here's my situation:
I have an Alfa net wireless adapter.
On my PC, I am running VMWare v6 to use BT, and I have the updated drivers for the alfa card inside the BT iso. When I load up, BT does not recognize the card; the only things that come up are eth0 and l0.
I tried using the updated BT.iso (with the driver updates) as a live CD on my Dell Latitude D630; and yet, no luck.
It should be noted that on my PC I would atleast get a connection, I tested out firefox and it had worked.
I'm new to VMWare AND BT; I'm just asking if someone could help me along in finding a post/thread that I can research on; I'm not asking you to do my work for me, but if you have some suggestion as well, that'd be a great help - thanks.

 Is there a difference between the Girth belts in ESB and ROTJ?
Printable View
 Is there a difference between the Girth belts in ESB and ROTJ?
E2K13 did a little research on this, and found that they appeared to be one in the same. I think the image that he was referencing was in the old image hosting, sorry.
Ok, so, to sum it up...they are the same color, If you want a great girth belt see E2K13.
Actually, the girth belts are the same, but the color and connection methods are different. In all cases the girth belt is a white/natural mohair horse girth with a diagonal weave. However, the pre-prod/ESB Fett is Dark Brown while ROTJ Fett is Dark Red.
Additonaly, the jury is still out on how the belt was connected in the back. Most agree that two 1" wide black straps were used to connect the four buckles on the girth. The straps were sewn to the buckels on one end, and buckled (like a regular belt) on the other end. The question is what material was used? Was it nylon (like in the MOM and ASW displays), was it leather (some think leather is screen accurate), or was it an elastic strap?
Here is the thread with the above information and detailed steps on how to die a girth:
In general, if you have to ask if there is a difference, there usually is. :D Differences between the movies, differences between sceens in the movies and differences between the various tour displays, pre-pro photos, and Special Eddtions. Very frustrating ... I know, but pick one you like and run with it, or mix and match. It's totally up to you.
BTW, the search engine can be your friend.
We came to the determination that the ESB and the ROTJ were the same color from a couple pictures.
They are both a deep Maroon where the Pre Pro is a brown.
There is an excellent picture that I had posted of Boba Fett standing on the bridge of The Executor in ESB where you can clearly see the deep maroon.
Now that the Picture hosting is down, I will have to find other means of showing that but maybe someone can offer a good pic.
Found 1 from my interest thread from ESB that shows the maroon in the girth but the other one that was hosted on the CD Reference had the light catching it well enough to see the maroon very clearly.
http://www.koenigscollectibles.com/J...esb_2 copy.jpg
The picture is not showing up for me, but I will take your word for it. I thought I had searched all the threads regarding the color of the girth, but I guess I missed the final determination of the color. Thanks for setting me straight. :)
Any concensus on the quantitiy and mixture of RIT dies, to get the correct girth color?
It's a long held misconception that the ESB girth is dark brown. It does appear to be very similar in color to the ROTJ girth. I feel it's probably more saturated and less washed out than the ROTJ girth, but definitely more maroonish than brown.
E2K13 wrote:
but maybe someone can offer a good pic.
And here's a screen grab I lighted quite a bit.
I worked for a little while to put together my mix for the ones I sell. All I will say is that I use a couple different colors to get that look and it takes me a couple days to dye them with the process I use.
You can see them here in this thread.
They are nicely colored belts when dyed. I've seen a big pile of them at his house once while he was getting them ready to ship out to various TDH members. ;)
Ek makes really good copies,they look just like the real thing,I know,i have the real thing.......great job EK.........compare EK's belts to the real belt pics here.....
You can see the colour difference in different lighting.

You could wait a couple years and go there for the Olympics You really did do a great job capturing the different totems and the research shows IMO.
Re: Canadians do it on Ice...
Okay, finally a really cool double entendre curling shirt! You don't have one, you probably NEED one, so you can look cool at the Winter Olympics in 2010 in Vancouver, CANADA!!!

There is some inherently cool thing about Canada, true. But Britain has good TV (most of prime time and just about everything for kiddies is British judging by the accents and ideas). And france has good food and wine. Canada has... well, Canada had the Red Green Show!!! . And good beer, curling, and mooses.

Re: Fedora Borealis
My first and only submission. This was tough to think about even though I'd been to Canada just a few days before this theme was announced. Other than the occasional "eh" There wasn't much different about it. Sure there's a stray moose now and then, but they don't bother you as long as you buy them drinks... Pretty sure that was Canada.
Very nice design. Good line work. I wish it was the full leaf centered, though.
Re: Posers Eh!
Ha ha ha, this is great. I know a lot of people who have done that to save their necks. It can get pretty hectic in the world if people know you're American. This could also be useful once they make it mandatory for you to have a passport to go into Canada.

Especially seeing it's got text there as well. It's very busy and very boxy. And I would go one further to say that the bottle is a lost cause if you want it printed here, because the color is so close to the background it just won't show up.
Guys thanks for the critique, I don't mean to sound snobish here so sorry if I do. What I did was took the tree from my other line drawing and made the colors into red and white, admittedly I wish I had just done it with a red tree and white middle or vice-versa, not both. The maple syrup thing was just an idea that I liked, and you are right in the fact that The shirt is:
The shadow doesn't really make sense
And the tree is a little boxy, if you look at my entry in the line drawing derby (Stairway to...) then you can see it there as well, this happened because the tree goes right to the edge of the 16 by 20 and I only noticed when I was done what had happened
All this said, The reason This isn't looking that great is because I did this in only an hour and then left for vacation, I just wanted to get something quick down and practice modding old versions
Your critique tho is helpful and if I get time I will resub this keeping in mind the things you have said. Chances of winning will be slim to none but it will be fun so thank you!

ebonyglider wrote:yes please someone explain it
is it because americans are stupid and don't know where canada is?
i think that's the idea. this would make a great shirt cause people would ask you what it means all the time!
Re: F*CK CANADA!
To the designer "hahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahaa" fail.
Re: Get Busy
Alright! KidG is overdue for some appreciation around here.
Fail? I'm pressing the shirt myself because of the initial response on Woot! over the past couple of days. These will sell great independently. Do-it-yourself for the win. Having been in bands, I already have a hook up at screen shops, and the initial investment comes down to $2 a shirt screened wholesale. That's $8 profit sold at $10 + shipping. Yeah, I totally failed.
Re: On Guard For Thee.
Sach, I love your design. There is a professional quality about it that you don't see in many of the other shirt designs. I really like it. GMV

Do real Canadians wear shirts with Canadian flags on them?
I don't know, but many Americans where clothing with some type of American flag, including patches; I don't think that's odd. i never think twice about it

The Bridge between Detroit and Windsor has the distinction of being the one place where you can cross into Canada going south (and of course cross into the US going north).

When searching for a wireless card, people often want to find one with the best range. Most often, this decision is solely limited to the transmit power of the card. While transmit power is one factor in determining range, there are others that ought to be considered when determining overall range.
As 802.11b/g uses 2.4 ghz, which operates like any other radio frequency signal, we can use the basics of RF signal propagation to determine range. There are five basic components which effect signal propagation:
*Transmit power
*Transmit antenna gain
*Frequency and distance (path loss)
*Receiving antenna gain
*Receiver sensitivity
There are other factors which effect signal loss as well: cable losses, RF opaque materials in the signal path, etc.
Because wireless communication is a two way process, we may also have to include the same five factors in reverse. While 'transmit power' referred to your wireless card, on the return trip 'transmit power' refers to the access point. Likewise, 'receiver sensitivity would refer to your card as opposed to the access point, and so on.
The point of this post is to demonstrate that your 250mw or 300mw or 600mw card may have significant power out, but that is only one of the factors that determine range.
This is meant to be a very basic primer in wireless ranging. There are very detailed range equations out there. If you're interested, Google "Friis transmission equation" and go from there.

Hey guys and gals.
Just about ready to put the JF Helmet mold into motion.
Before I go on, let me first disclaim - I am no Jango expert. Wasn't even a "Fan" really until recently, so I never paid much attention.
Did anyone else ever know/suspect that the RF Stalk on Jango's helmet is "Static" (non-moveable) ? (hero/stunt/otherwise?)
I'd love to hear your thoughts. I will glady say "why" I am asking, after I get some non-biased comments
Thanks Gang!

The 2012 European Championship is now in full swing and Arsenal.com will be keeping you regularly updated with the progress of the Gunners taking part in the tournament.
Tomas Rosicky
Czech Republic 0-1 Portugal
Thursday, June 21
Tomas Rosicky is heading home from Euro 2012 after watching his Czech Republic team-mates lose to Portugal in Warsaw.
The Arsenal midfielder did not feature in the tournament's first quarter-final - failing to sufficiently shake off an Achilles injury - and the Czechs struggled in his absence.
They started well with Vaclav Pilar to the fore, but Portugal gradually took a grip on the game thanks to their own creative force - Cristiano Ronaldo.
The Real Madrid star hit the woodwork twice in the first half but he eventually found a way past Petr Cech with 11 minutes left with a powerful downward header from Joao Moutinho's cross.
It was no more than Portugal deserved after dominating the second half and they advance to a semi-final against Spain or France.
Rosicky goes home, leaving five Arsenal players still in contention to lift the European Championship.

I've got my own photo copier in my home. I don't make mass amounts of copies, I just print off a copy everytime someone asks for a trade or buys one. It comes in handy, but I spend a lot of money on ink and paper.
Often those big copiers are owned by the office or shop anyway, they're rented and the rent includes regular servicing. They need to be running regularly (but not too heavily) to keep in good shape too.

Install Brew (Quickstart)
$ cd /usr/local $ sudo ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)" $ sudo ln -s /usr/local/homebrew/bin/brew /usr/local/bin/brew
Install opencv
$ sudo brew tap homebrew/science $ sudo brew install -v opencv
Adjust PYTHONPATH to find opencv
$ export PYTHONPATH=/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages:$PYTHONPATH
Importing opencv
$ python import cv
Disabling MacPorts and/or Fink
Brew's "doctor" suggests we get rid of
/sw and
/opt/local from our environment if they exist, however this can prove to be cumbersome, especially when you have many different paths defined (most of which you're not willing to lose). Below is a simple Python script that takes N paths and strips them from
PATH. The resulting string is
PATH excluding any matched patterns.
#!/usr/bin/env python import os import sys if __name__ in '__main__': ARGS = sys.argv[1:] PATH = os.environ['PATH'] PATH_NEW = [] for arg in ARGS: for path in PATH.split(':'): if arg in path: continue PATH_NEW.append(path) print("{0}".format(":".join(PATH_NEW)))
Assume your standard PATH variable is defined as follows:
$ echo $PATH /sw/bin:/sw/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/opt/X11/bin
In order to remove the offending tree (
/sw) from PATH, we execute
$ purge_path /sw /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/opt/X11/bin
Notice that
/sw is indeed missing in the output.
Putting purge_path to work
In BASH
$ export PATH=`eval purge_path /sw` $ echo $PATH /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/opt/X11/bin:/usr/texbin
In TCSH
$ setenv PATH `purge_path /sw` $ echo $PATH /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/opt/X11/bin:/usr/texbin
Using purge_path with brew
Create the following wrapper script(s):
#!/bin/bash exclusion="/sw /opt/local" export PATH=`eval /usr/local/bin/purge_path ${exclusion}` export PYTHONPATH=/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages
[Tcsh title="~/bin/percolate.csh"]
set exclusion="/sw /opt/local"
setenv PATH `/usr/local/bin/purge_path ${exclusion}`
setenv PYTHONPATH /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages
If you intend to run brew packages with Fink or Macports installed in parallel, issue (depending on your default shell)
source ~/bin/percolate.sh or
source ~/bin/percolate.csh after opening a fresh terminal.

Our international SIM cards, global SIM and cheap international call services all provide major savings if you use your mobile phone or landline either at home or abroad. Say goodbye to mobile phone roaming charges, expensive call costs and extortionate data prices!
Generally we'd recommend an international SIM for those travelling through several countries on a trip or if you visit different countries regularly during the year. A foreign SIM is best suited to those who visit only a specific country frequently or for prolonged periods.
Our SIM cards can be used in the majority of handsets providing they are unlocked from the original network. You can test if your handset is unlocked by inserting a SIM from a different network to see if it works.
Yes, we provide both depending on your needs. You can order which option you require during checkout.
Unfortunately it is not possible to do this yet but we hope to see it added as a feature in the future. You can divert your UK number to an international SIM but you need to check with your network for call charges that may apply.
The answer is yes. With our SIM you can make reasonable savings in Europe despite the recent caps that have been introduced, and with a foreign SIM in Europe the savings can be far greater depending on your usage patterns. Outside of the EU the savings become significant as there are no caps applied and networks charge a huge premium to make calls, receive calls and use data.
This can be done easily and depends on the SIM you choose. You can add credit on-line anywhere you can access the internet with the international SIM card. With a foreign SIM you can buy top up vouchers over the counter at local retailers. Each product will have a different method so refer to the web page for any detail.
Yes, all SIM cards have an expiry period but as long as they are used reasonably regularly and topped up in accordance with the user guide then they can be used ongoing. The international SIM makes this easier with on-line top ups rather than local top ups required for foreign SIMs.
Many of the SIM cards we provide not only provide voice and text functions but can be used for mobile internet. The global SIM has the benefit of covering multiple countries while often foreign SIM cards offer the best in country rates for data. Specific data SIM cards are also available for heavier users.
With pay-as-you-go services then you own and keep the SIM and use on a pay-as-you-go basis. With pay monthly voice or data SIM cards then you return them at the end of the rental period.
We offer full support on the global SIM and all foreign SIM cards we provide, either through 0044.co.uk or via the network that supports the SIM card. We offer phone support during office hours and email support 24/7.
No, they can only be ordered on-line but we deliver internationally and offer standard and express options. Details and prices are available at checkout.
Whilst these FAQ's attempt to provide answers on popular subjects it is worth reviewing the specific product page for full details or failing that please contact us (or email us directly on firstname.lastname@example.com) and we'll be happy to provide further information for you ahead of purchase.

Many would view Saturday's 14-0 win as an ugly effort, but none of those were ringing the Victory Bell on Saturday at Yager Stadium.
OXFORD, Ohio -- In the Xbox era of college football, beauty comes defined by different standards. Wild shootouts and broken passing records draw double takes and smiles from the boys.
Physicality and frustrated offensive coordinators are demoted to a back room, sent out to the scrap heap along with Nintendo, Reebok pumps and other former objects of affection.
What once would be considered the definition of football in the Sunday newspaper today draws Twitter trolls.
Not for Tommy Tuberville. Wiping his hand through graying hair to symbolize the number of 14-0 stress sessions he's witnessed during a 17-year coaching career, he smiles about a game that never made him feel uncomfortable even though his 23-point favorite Bearcats failed to find a lead as minutes ran off the clock in the final quarter.
"A lot of people say that wasn't very pretty, but it was for me," Tuberville said. "Running the ball, playing defense and winning the game is always pretty to me."
To those who treasure broken noses and gnarly bruises Saturday was watching Picasso paint.
The Bearcats allowed one yard of net offense in the second half. One. Uno.
They held Miami to 0 for 11 on third downs and empty on three fourth-down attempts.
Of 45 RedHawks plays, the same went for negative yards (11) as went for more than five.
Eight players owned piece of a tackle for loss.
In the fourth quarter, Miami ran eight plays for minus-11 yards with one turnover and one punt.
Tuberville, while reading postgame stats, spotted 29 and 7 listed next to each other on the box score and remarked how well the defense shut them down only allowing 29 rushing yards. Only, the numbers read opposite. UC held Miami to seven yards on 29 rushes. That's 0.24 yards per rush for those searching for a calculator.
Ugly? Maybe to those flipping to ESPN3. And certainly to fans whiting out Yager Stadium. But not for anyone found ringing the Victory Bell on the way to the team bus in Oxford.
"That was one of the best wins I've ever had here," said defensive tackle Jordan Stepp, who racked up two sacks and saw UC rack up nine straight scoreless quarters in this stadium. "Here's why. Winning is hard to do, but we've had a lot of success the five years I've been here. Wins like that show the younger guys not to take it for granted. Those are the best wins. Wins you have to fight for are the ones - I got goosebumps right now - those are the ones you feel. They are the ones that mean everything."
They mean even more to a team seeking an identity entering conference play for the first time under Tuberville. Mark Dantonio's teams were defined by physicality. Brian Kelly's by electric offense. Butch Jones' by passion. What will be the calling card of Tuberville when UC walks into Raymond James Stadium in two weeks.
On Saturday, the case was made for relentless defense.
Defensive end Silverberry Mouhon consistently collapsed the edge along with Terrell Hartsfield and other rotating ends. It allowed UC's quick linebackers to blow up any of the few gaps opened by the Miami offense.
To be sure, the RedHawks won't be mistaken for Green Bay Packers anytime soon. And references of a coach on the hot seat echoed through the stadium as beleaguered Miami fans slogged to their cars. But this was as much about the Bearcats defense as Miami offense.
UC adapted to mistakes made on third downs and with quarterbacks sprinting out of the pocket at Illinois to become a strength against Miami.
Brendon Kay didn't play well. The kicking game left six points on the board. They became the first NCAA game to go scoreless through three quarters since 2007.
Yet, even amid frustration on the visitor sideline, the day never felt uncomfortable.
That's the beauty of it.
"We were on fire the second half," Stepp said. "Football is a game of momentum and that carried over to the offense. There's been a lot of times in my career here we've needed a spark lit under our butts from the offense. It's a beautiful thing in a win like that when you have to earn every inch, every yard, every down, every point. It's great."
I want to hear from you! Shoot me any comments, questions or observations about UC football to firstname.lastname@example.com or hit me up on Twitter @pauldehnerjr.

Teaching children the value of money
09 August 2014 , 6:01 AM by Rob Minshull
Any parent will know that there comes a point in their life where the amount of pocket money that they want in order to maintain their social life will exceed the level of funding you are prepared to provide.
It is usually around this time that parents will sit their children down and perhaps have a conversation about part-time work, the value of money and the benefits of saving.
Award-winning financial planner, Olivia Maragna from Aspire Retire Financial Services, is talking tips on how to teach children the value of money.

Canisius College Director of Athletics Bill Maher announced today that Tom Parrotta will not return as head coach after six seasons. A national search for Parrotta's replacement will begin immediately.
"After careful consideration, I have made the difficult decision to make a change in the leadership of our men's basketball program. This decision comes after careful thought to what I believe is in the best interest of our men's basketball program here at Canisius College," Maher said. "Tom has worked diligently on behalf of Canisius College and has had a significant impact on our program in a number of areas, and for that, we are grateful. However, our goal is to compete for the MAAC Championship and we have not made sufficient progress toward that goal. I appreciate Tom's hard work and dedication to our College and the men's basketball program, and most importantly to our student-athletes. I wish him the best of luck in his future endeavors."
In six seasons as the Griffs' head coach, Parrotta posted a career record of 64-121 and a 30-78 mark in Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference play. The team went 5-25 overall and 1-17 in league during the 2011-12 campaign.The 22nd head coach in Canisius men's basketball history, Parrotta came to the school prior to the 2006-07 season after coaching at Hofstra University for five years.

A showdown is looming between teachers in Kenya and the government over the issue of standards. Basic Education Minister Sam Ongeri argues teachers must sign performance standard agreements which spell out what they seek to accomplish and have those documents sent on a quarterly basis to designated agencies which would evaluate if teachers are accomplishing goals. He wants teachers held to the same standards as any other public servant. Teacher unions fear moving in this direction ends concepts such as tenure and leaves teachers at the mercy of public officials as to what they are doing in the classroom. Professor Ongeri insists "nobody will force u to set the standards. You will do it yourself, something that you are sure of achieving."
At first glance, the Kenyan government desire to establish standards appears reasonable, but the history of standards invariably results in developing tests to measure performance and this results in transforming teaching into preparation for tests. There is always fear among teachers that public officials, rather than themselves, will eventually determine the standard.
Unlike selling automobiles, teaching is a long loop occupation and results may require months to achieve. The idea of quarterly reports is a hindrance to effective teaching.
