Behind every web transaction lies the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) --- the language of web browsers and servers, of portals and search engines, of e-commerce and web services. Understanding HTTP is essential for practically all web-based programming, design, analysis, and administration.While the basics of HTTP are elegantly simple, the protocol's advanced features are notoriously confusing, because they knit together complex technologies and terminology from many disciplines. This book clearly explains HTTP and these interrelated core technologies, in twenty-one logically organized chapters, backed up by hundreds of detailed illustrations and examples, and convenient reference appendices. HTTP: The Definitive Guide explains everything people need to use HTTP efficiently -- including the "black arts" and "tricks of the trade" -- in a concise and readable manner.In addition to explaining the basic HTTP features, syntax and guidelines, this book clarifies related, but often misunderstood topics, such as: TCP connection management, web proxy and cache architectures, web robots and robots.txt files, Basic and Digest authentication, secure HTTP transactions, entity body processing, internationalized content, and traffic redirection.Many technical professionals will benefit from this book. Internet architects and developers who need to design and develop software, IT professionals who need to understand Internet architectural components and interactions, multimedia designers who need to publish and host multimedia, performance engineers who need to optimize web performance, technical marketing professionals who need a clear picture of core web architectures and protocols, as well as untold numbers of students and hobbyists will all benefit from the knowledge packed in this volume.There are many books that explain how to use the Web, but this is the one that explains how the Web works. Written by experts with years of design and implementation experience, this book is the definitive technical bible that describes the "why" and the "how" of HTTP and web core technologies. HTTP: The Definitive Guide is an essential reference that no technically-inclined member of the Internet community should be without.

Our look is the result of reader comments, our own experimentation, and feedback from distribution channels. Distinctive covers complement our distinctive approach to technical topics, breathing personality and life into potentially dry subjects. The animal on the cover of HTTP: The Definitive Guide is a thirteen-lined ground squirrel (Spermophilus tridecemlineatus), common to central North America. True to its name, the thirteen-lined ground squirrel has thirteen stripes with rows of light spots that run the length of its back. Its color pattern blends into its surroundings, protecting it from predators. Thirteen-lined ground squirrels are members of the squirrel family, which includes chipmunks, ground squirrels, tree squirrels, prairie dogs, and woodchucks. They are similar in size to the eastern chipmunk but smaller than the common gray squirrel, averaging about 11 inches in length (including a 5-6 inch tail).Thirteen-lined ground squirrels go into hibernation in October and emerge in late March or early April. Each female usually produces one litter of 7-10 young each May. The young leave the burrows at four to five weeks of age and are fully grown at six weeks. Ground squirrels prefer open areas with short grass and well-drained sandy or loamy soils for burrows, and they avoid wooded areas--mowed lawns, golf courses, and parks are common habitats.Ground squirrels can cause problems when they create burrows, dig up newly planted seeds, and damage vegetable gardens. However, they are important prey to several predators, including badgers, coyotes, hawks, weasels, and various snakes, and they benefit humans directly by feeding on many harmful weeds, weed seeds, and insects.

About Me Developer
I have essentially bought the book for the human readable aspect of the HTTP protocol RFC, but for my surprise I got much more from it (partially due the fact that I didn't read the TOC before).Aside from all the pros I tagged, another interesting chapter of the book is the one about web crawlers and tips, tricks and pitfalls you may encounter/use in order to build good web crawlers.And what else can I say about its Appendixes, where I found the best written reference to HTTP statuses and headers.Five stars well deserved.

Excellent: Easily the best reference on HTTP
By jdruin
from Undisclosed
This book remains at the top of references on the subject of HTTP. The book was top-notch when released and has been aided by the fact that HTTP has not changed in any fundamental way for years.What sets this volume apart is the style. In essence, the book is really covering what is freely available in various RFCs covering HTTP, but the book explains the RFCs using 2 techniques that makes it easy to understand.First the HTTP specifications are put in context. The book covers how the HTTP spec is used in conjunction with TCP/IP, the Internet, web servers, proxies, SSL, and networks.Second, the book explains the details progressively from the basics to difficult topics. This allows readers new to HTTP to learn how it works but there is still values to readers who are more advanced.There is no part of HTTP that is not covered. Most is covered in detail.This is a must-have for web developers.

HTTP: The Definitive Guide Review
By Anonymous
If Sid likes it, 'nuf said. I'm buying it!
(3 of 3 customers found this review helpful)
By Alex Belt of the Columbia Java Users Group
As its name states, this book is a definitive guide. It provides in depth coverage of all important HTTP information in use today, ranging from the basic communications protocol, to cache control, proxies, and security mechanisms. It's extremely well written in clear and easy to understand terms.The organization of the book is one reason I gave it only 4 tarsiers instead of 5. Material on proxies, and especially cache control, was spread through the book, rather than being located in any one area. While the basics of these are important to understanding some of the considerations in writing an HTTP application, a different organizational structure may have suited the material better.This book is a great teaching and reference book for learning HTTP, but if you are not planning on running your own HTTP server, especially a proxy or caching server, a lot of this book is overkill. I'm sure I'll be referring to it in the future for various other kinds of HTTP information.

I've fooled around with HTTP for years, but never really quite became an expert. I've read much of the RFC, an excellent spec, but serious as cancer - it helps if you know 95% of what you're reading and are just going for the 95%.Well, this book is where you get that first 95% and is just fantastic. I really don't need to be an HTTP expert anymore, but I can't put it down. It's like The Secrets Of The Universe revealed. HTTP means many things to many people and next to TCP/IP is probably one of the most implemented protocols on the Internet. I now understand about historical versions of browsers, servers, and protocols. I now understand proxies, and smart routers, and authentication systems and reverse proxies.This book is super-readable, with clear, NON-TRIVIAL examples, and tips. The authors even put up a Web site and show you how to telnet to it, to watch what its Apache Web server responds with.I wish I could write this well!
By George Woolley
An excellent book.If you want to learn more about HTTP, its core technologies,and the context in which it exits, this book will likely serve you well.I used it for that.The book also helped me to learn more about bots.The book provides both perspective and useful specifics.See details.

Arsène Wenger admits he has told 'white lies' to the Press in the past - but only to protect his players.
The Arsenal manager is renowned for his straight-talking, respectful approach to all journalists. But, during Friday's media work, he confessed that - on rare occasions and for good reasons - he had held back the truth.
"If you are asking me if I have lied to the Press to protect a player, I must say yes," he said. "I didn't do it and feel comfortable afterwards, but I have a clear conscience because if it's for one of my players it's a good cause.
"I can't give concrete examples, but when I have lied to the Press I always speak to the player concerned beforehand to get put the story straight."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Arsène Wenger is expected to field his usual youthful Carling Cup side for the trip to West Bromwich Albion this evening.
The Arsenal manager continues to use this competition as a useful education for his emerging professionals. Many have gone on to become established members of the first-team squad. Others, like David Bentley, Graham Stack, Stuart Taylor, Jerome Thomas, Jermaine Pennant and Moritz Volz, have forged careers at other Premiership clubs.
It is always a risk letting talent players leave so the Club has sometimes retained first option to buy them back.
"It's normal," said Wenger speaking before the weekend game at Reading. "Most of the time we sell very good players to Clubs who have not a lot of money. They cannot pay for the real value of the player.
"At least we try to have first option if another club comes in. I think that is fair. It doesn't mean we try to stop the club from making money. But we try to do it when we feel we undersell or under price the player."

HAMDEN, Conn — Brittany McQuain had 14 of her game-high 18 points in the second half as Quinnipiac University scored 46 second-half points to overcome an 11-point halftime deficit and defeat the Canisius women's basketball team 65-51 at the TD Bank Sports Center on Sunday afternoon.
Senior Jamie Ruttle scored a team-high 12 points to along with six rebounds while junior Kayla Hoohuli scored 11 points. Canisius shot 41.5 percent from the floor, shooting better than 40 percent for the 11th time this season, but couldn't overcome 21 turnovers on the day.
"We really struggle to put together 40 minutes against the teams at the top of the standings in our conference," Canisius coach Terry Zeh said. "We did what we wanted in the first half, but we didn't answer the punch that Quinnipiac gave us right at the start of the second half. That's something that has to change or the results are going to continue to be the same."
Canisius (9-14, 5-9 MAAC) controlled the first half of the game, holding Quinnipiac to 20 percent from the floor and 2-for-14 from beyond the arc. The Canisius defense frustrated the Bobcats' offense into taking difficult shots and not getting in an offensive rhythm. The Griffs closed the half on a 12-2 run, including a 10-point spurt featuring back-to-back baskets from senior Jen Lennox, during the final five-plus minutes to take an 30-19 lead into the locker room. Twenty of the Griffs' 30 first-half points came in the paint as all nine Golden Griffins who played in the first half would score.
McQuain led the Quinnipiac (15-9, 10-4 MAAC) turnaround, sparking the Bobcats on the offensive and defensive ends. The Bobcats scored the first 12 points of the second half and forced Canisius into four turnovers on its first six possessions. The Griffs were scoreless in the second half until a layup from Ruttle gave a one-point lead back to Canisius with 13:30 left. That 32-31 lead would be the last lead of the day for Canisius as the Bobcats extended the run to a 19-2 spurt and went up by six. Canisus stayed within striking distance and trailed 48-42 with eight minutes left. Back-to-back baskets from McQuain and two 3-pointers from Jasmine Martin put the game away.
McQuain had a game-high 18 points to go along with seven rebounds. Martin had 13 points as Quinnipiac shot 55.2 percent in the second half, including 6-of-11 on 3-pointers.
Canisius will play four of its last six games in the Koessler Athletic Center, starting with Thursday night's game against Manhattan. Tipoff in the KAC is set for 7 p.m.
Notes: Canisius played at Quinnipiac for the first time in program history… The 11-point halftime lead was the largest of the season for the Griffs… Ruttle scored in double figures for the 13th time… Hoohuli has scored 10 or more points in seven of the last 10 games… Canisius made a season-low one 3-pointer and tied its season-low with nine 3-point field goal attempts… Freshman Laniere Coleman played in the second half, her first appearance since Nov. 22, against Akron… Canisius lost a game it led by double-digits at the half for the first time since Nov. 25, 2008, at Illinois-Chicago when the Griffs led 32-22 and lost 63-59.

Animating a solution to a physical problem can be very helpful in understanding the underlying physical phenomena. Sometimes such animations can give rise to new questions and inspire creativity.
The model animations on this page are selected in order to reflect a wide-range of research areas and applications that COMSOL Multiphysics can be used to model.
They come from existing models that you can investigate in detail in the Model Gallery.
Contact Analysis of a Valve Cap
This model performs a transient contact analysis of a valve cap intended to protect valves from dust and other contaminates. The Structural Mechanics Module in COMSOL was used to simulate the displacements and stresses in the cap during closing.
Boiling Water
This model studies the film boiling of water. A heat flux above the Leidenfrost point is applied at the surface of two cavities. A layer of vapor is maintained at the hot surface-liquid interface where film boiling results.
Simulation of a Microrobot
This example shows the model of one of the legs of a silicon microrobot. Heat is generated by an electric current flowing through the leg and, due to thermal expansion and different thermal expansion coefficients of the leg's materials, a bending action is induced.
Free Convection in a Cold Water Glass
This example considers the natural convection of a glass of chilled water that sits on a surface of fixed temperature in an environment at the same temperature. The animation shows the fluid's velocity in the glass as it heats up over time.
Acoustic-structure Interaction in a Cylinder Immersed in Water
Liquid or gas acoustic waves coupled to structural objects, such as membranes, plates or solids, are important applications in many engineering fields. Examples of such include loudspeakers, acoustic sensors, nondestructive impedance testing, and medical ultrasound diagnostics of the human body.
Electroosmotic Micromixer
Passive mixers, common in microfluidics applications, often require very long mixing channels to ensure that the molecular diffusion between the different fluids is adequate. An alternative though is to use electroosmotic effects to achieve a mixing effect, perpendicular to the main direction of the flow, to add to the diffusion effects.
Deformation of a Thermomechanical Microvalve
In this example, a parametric study shows how an increasing voltage applied to each of the legs leads to an increased temperature, imposing more and more deformation.
Turbulent Flow around a Truck
The flow field around a truck traveling at high speeds is of special interest not only for performance reasons, but also for economical and environmental reasons. For example an extra stack of lights at the top of the vehicle can increase the fuel consumption quite a lot.
The Electromagnetic Fields from a Railgun
A Railgun is a type of magnetic accelerator gun that utilizes an electromagnetic force to propel an electrically-conductive projectile. Current flowing through the rails sets up a magnetic fields perpendicular to each other, forcing the projectile to accelerate along the rails.
Solidification of a Molten Aluminum Droplet on a Cold Surface
In the production of metals, there are many instances in which multiphase and free-surface flows with interfacial phenomena are present.
Contact Analysis of a Snap Hook Fastener
Fasteners like this are common in the automotive industry, for example in the control panel of a car. In this case it is important to know the force that must be applied in order to place the hook in the slot, as well as the force needed to remove it.
Plastic Deformation During the Expansion of a Stent
This model studies the deformation of a stent subjected to a radial outward pressure using an elasto-plastic material model with linear hardening. The animation shows the total displacement and illustrates both the non-uniform expansion and foreshortening of the stent.
Droplet Breakup in a T-Junction
Emulsions consist of small liquid droplets immersed in an immiscible liquid and widely occur in the production of food, cosmetics, fine chemicals, and pharmaceutical products.
Air flow in a Cyclone Separator
A cyclone separator is a common device for separating small particles from a gas stream. The swirling flow introduces centrifugal forces on the particles so that they eventually hit the cyclone wall, lose momentum and fall down; whereas the cleaned gas leaves the cyclone separator through a central pipe.
Porous Reactor with Injection Needle
This example shows the mixing of reactants and the catalytic reaction rate in a packed bed reactor where one of the reactants is injected through a needle in a perpendicular direction to the main axis of the reactor.
Self-contact in a Gear Stick Rubber Boot Seal
Boot seals are used in automotive applications to protect moving parts from dust and the like, especially in steering knuckles and suspension components. The sealing material is often required to handle large deformations and sometimes fold in on itself causing self-contact.
Residence Time in a Turbulent Baffled Reactor
Baffled reactors are common in the water treatment industry and are used to allow for slow reactions to reach completion in as small reactor-volume as possible. Yet, such reactors must be optimized as too much baffling can create unnecessary pressure drops, while too little can lead to 'short-circuiting'.
Dynamics of a Generator
This example shows how the circular motion of a rotor with permanent magnets in a generator results in an induced EMF in the stator winding. The generated voltage is calculated as a function of time during the rotation.
Mixing in a Static Mixer
In static mixers, a fluid is pumped through a pipe containing stationary blades. This mixing technique is particularly well suited for laminar flow, and is demonstrated in this animation.
Two-phase flow from an inkjet
This example demonstrates the modeling of two-phase flow occurring when a droplet is shot from an inkjet printer. The droplet shape and velocity magnitude surrounding the droplet are calculated.
Fluid-Structure Interaction
This example illustrates how fluid flow can deform surrounding structures, while these structures affect the fluid flow in turn.
Magnetic Field in a Magnetic Levitation Train
A Maglev train works through both the train and track being equipped with repulsive electromagnets to make the train levitate. This model calculates the fields inside the compartment while also simulating the movement of the train as the driving coils alternate polarity.

Potter's Bowl in Derry raises thousands for Community Caregivers
By HUNTER McGEE
Union Leader Correspondent | February 02. 2014 8:59PM
Michelle Noel, in red, and to her left, Debra Becker, discuss their handcrafted pottery bowls during Community Caregivers' Ninth Annual Potter's Bowl Friday night at Promises to Keep, on Route 28. (HUNTER McGEE PHOTO)
The large turnout for the event at Promises to Keep on Route 28 helped Community Caregivers surpass its fundraising goal of $10,000, said Julie Levesque, office manager.
Through ticket sales, a raffle and silent auction, donations exceeded $11,000, Levesque said.
A 50/50 raffle was featured again as an added fundraiser, along with a silent auction.
"I thought it was a great format, a lot of fun and a perfect way to raise a lot of money," she said.

dude: post the pictures on the forum
Please help me to identify this antique revolver.
dude: post the pictures on the forum
Well that didn't work very well, "this page not found"
I'm new to photo sharing. The pics are available now.
I am not at home to look it up but I believe you have a Galand revolver form Galand of Liege in belgium. It looks large enough to use a 12 m/m Perrin(I think) cartridge. Production some time maybe 1870's.
Thanks sgms. You're right. I just got confirmation from a friend. Its a 1872 Galand Military revolver. Do yo have any idea on what its value is?
If my memory is correct I lost one of these on an auction last December to a $1,000.00 bid. But I must also say based on the pictures you posted the auction one was in better condition than yours looks to be, so a wild 'a' guess would be 600-750 range but don't depend on that to be correct. Like I said it is a wild guess.
Thanks sgms

The Fantasie brand specializes in lingerie and stylish bra-sized swimwear in large cup sizes. Founded in Bristol, England in 1920, the family-run company manufactured corsets, girdles, bras and swimwear under contract for High Street Stores and under its own brand name, Fantasie. Fantasie of England was one of the first companies to recognize the needs of the full-busted (rather than full-figured) woman. Each Fantasie bra caters to a woman with a full cup size, but not necessarily a large back (or band) size.
Fantasie believes curves are something to be shown off. The sophisticated shapes and styles of Fantasie bras and Fantasie panties are designed specifically to do just that. Fantasie uses indulgent fabrics to create beautiful fits that make every curvy woman feel as gorgeous as she's ever felt in her life while giving her the confidence to be feminine all the time.
Besides bras, Fantasie makes extremely popular panties as well. Each Fantasie panty is sexy, feminine, and made for women who want to celebrate their beauty and their curves.
Women looking for the perfect strapless dress solution will like the Smoothing Molded Strapless Bra from Fantasie because it has fine molded cups for a smooth, seam-free natural shape with a firm, supportive fit. The natural cotton cup lining is ultra soft against the sensitive parts of your skin and the gripper elastic holds the bra in exactly the place it should be to offer the proper support. Here at Freshpair, we carry a wide variety of popular Fantasie items and styles, including:
One of Fantasie's top-rated bras, the Smoothing Molded T-Shirt Bra, has molded foam cups for a smooth seam-free natural shape and natural cotton cup lining to feel ultra-soft against your skin.
In the entire Fantasie line, they believe that women who have curves should be encouraged to love them and admire them. Freshpair offers a full selection of Fantasie products in a wide range of styles, sizes, and colors. Fantasie provides beautiful lingerie that covers cup sizes ranging from A all the way through J cup. Find the right Fantasie product for you by browsing our selection.

Dear Lucy
My boyfriend recently moved to French Guiana to work for the ESA
I will be joining him in October and hope to get some work teaching English. I recently completed a weekend TEFL course in Cardiff, this was brilliant but now feel my brain has information overload!
I would like to take out some lesson plans ready made for each age group and level but really don't have a clue where to begin.
Any advice would be gratefully appreciated.

Warm Apple-Cheese Sandwiches
For a tasty twist on the standard grilled cheese, try adding slices of crisp apples to layers of sweet fruit preserves, creamy brie, and bacon sandwiched between slices of buttery toasted bread. The sweet-and-salty combination makes every bite irresistible.
12 strips bacon
12 slices of thin Italian or French bread
2 tbsp. apricot or raspberry preserves
¼ to ½ lb. brie cheese
2 medium tart apples, peeled, cored, and cut into 12 rings
100% oil non-stick spray or butter
- Preheat the West Bend® Grill & Panini Press in closed position. Open the grill 180° so that both sides lay flat on the counter. Cook the bacon. Grease will collect in the drip tray.
- Spread one side of 6 slices of bread with preserves. Add cheese and apple slices. Cross two slices of cooked bacon over each. Top with the remaining slices of bread.
- Spray top and bottom of sandwiches with 100% oil non-stick spray or butter the bread. Place on the West Bend® Grill & Panini Press. Carefully close the lid and grill until the bread is crisp and golden, about 3-5 minutes.
Makes 6 servings.

67 el camino brakes...
Im new to this board and american cars in general.
I have a 67 elcamino, I am looking for brake upgrades, I have 4 wheel drum, non-power. I was wondering if anyone knows which other chevy front disc's work, spindle swap or where I might be able to look to find out. I assume that I will have to take to whole brake system, booster, M/C.
or would this all be "easier" if I just bit the bullet and bought one of those power brake/disc conversions.
[ November 03, 2002: Message edited by: VRTSid ]

No, don't spend the money on a kit, you don't need to. You need to do some research though. But I believe that you can adapt up to '71 or maybe '72 discs from the front of most of the mid size GM cars (Buick, Pontiac Lemans, Chevelle, Camaro) between '67 and '71. I think you don't have to replace the whole spindle assembly, I believe it splits into two pieces and you use what you have for part of it and the disc units for the other half. I think the difference is how the various cars tie rods connect is the issue, not the brakes and spindles per se. But take some pictures of your car without the brake backing plate on and compare it to some of these cars. You will see that there is great similarity between all these cars front brake systems.
Don't plan on finding a dual wheel cylinder unit from an SS, they have all been pirated long ago.
I converted a set of '69 camaro drums to discs from a '70 or '71 Pontiac F-85 this way. There was no grinding etc, just interchange of parts. You can't do this by using an interchange book because even thought the parts may fit, they were never sold under those part numbers for your car, so you can forget interchange referencing. And further, where the early cars may have offered disc brakes as options, these cars were the first to donate their brakes to another and have been pretty well picked over.
You will need to change your master cylinder because the disc cylinders require a much larger filling volume than the drum brakes. Whatever you use as wheel cylinders, use the master from that car as well. You don't need vacuum assist unless you want to. You can stop without it. It will make your leg strong.
The disc brakes will be about 1 1/2" wider in total width than your drums. If you are thought ful and patient, you can probably do this for $100.
Good luck, this is an easy conversion once you find the pieces.
[ November 05, 2002: Message edited by: F-1Rodder ]

:D :D Spend the money and buy NEW stuff.
If you do not know how to do this (and it can be done) you will end end with your money gone and no brakes. Most all of the pieces you need are long ago picked over, old and worn out.
If you make it work.....if.... take the money you DID NOT SAVE and put good insurance on the Chevelle......you may need it.
:D :D Buy the power assit upgrade
$100? Not likely in this day and age.
I have a 67 Chevelle convertible and my disc brakes are from a 72 Monte Carlo. I got all my parts for the conversion from junkyards 20 years ago. It can be done today, but will take alot of effort. You'll need the spindles, calipers and master cylinder. I'd change your rubber lines too. Don't bother trying to find original 67 disc brakes. You'll pay twice as much for the parts and they aren't as good as 68 and up.
I would also suggest going here for all the Chevelle info you can possibly stand. Great bunch of guys and they can talk you through ANY issue on any Chevelle. Team Chevelle
My 67 Chevelle
[ November 07, 2002: Message edited by: Django ]

I saw an ad for "GM Brakes" 70-84 or somthing, are they all the same? Will any caliper from around that time be about the same, as far as the mounting?/
Here are some links to help you out.
http://www.chevelles.com/forum/Forum7/HTML/002268.html
This link is to an archive on converting from drum to disc. Spend some time reading all these threads, and you'll be an expert.

Saint Patrick is the Patron Saint of Ireland and the one credited with bringing Christianity to Ireland. The celebration of his Day is the only national holiday in Ireland. It is celebrated by morning mass, then parades and partying with lots of music into the night.
St. Patrick, who is well-known for building churches and spreading Christianity throughout Ireland, performed many miracles during his lifetime, including the time during his travels when he and his companions were without food. He prayed to God and wild pigs appeared from nowhere.
While most holidays celebrate the birth of a famous figure, March 17th is the day that St. Patrick died in the 5th century.
One of the symbols associated with St. Patrick is the three-leaf clover or shamrock. According to popular legend, St. Patrick used the shamrock while ministering to the people of Ireland to illustrate the Christian Trinity, associating it with the clover's three leaves.
One of the most popular customs, when celebrating the holiday is wearing (and decorating in) green. In fact, doing so is considered lucky. While many bars and pubs dye food and beer green with food coloring, some cities, such as Chicago, take it a step further. Each year on the day of the holiday the city dyes the Chicago River green for a day.
Happy clovers and happy holiday wishes can be part of your new phone background.

Preconception care and prenatal care are critical components of promoting a healthy pregnancy. The NICHD supports and conducts a broad range of research projects to increase the likelihood of a healthy birth. Short descriptions of this research are included below.
The NICHD conducts and supports many studies that confirm and reinforce the importance of preconception care and prenatal care for a healthy pregnancy. Several organizational units focus their research on ways that preconception and prenatal care can reduce complications during pregnancy and reduce the effects of environmental and lifestyle factors on the developing fetus.
The Pregnancy and Perinatology Branch (PPB) seeks to extend and enhance research in prevention of preterm birth, preeclampsia, fetal surgery, stillbirth, periconceptional exposure to alcohol, sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), health disparities, and perinatal genetics. PPB research related to preconception care and prenatal care includes the following:
The Division of Intramural Population Health Research (DIPHR) conducts studies on the following:
The Obstetric and Pediatric Pharmacology and Therapeutics Branch promotes research to improve the safety and efficacy of pharmaceuticals and to ensure centralization and coordination of research, clinical trials, and drug development activities for obstetric and pediatric populations. Current studies seek to determine why pregnancy alters the metabolism of hepatic drugs.
The Maternal and Pediatric Infectious Disease Branch supports both domestic and international research into the epidemiology, natural history, pathogenesis, transmission, treatment, and prevention of HIV infection and its complications in infants, children, adolescents, pregnant women, mothers, women of childbearing age, and the family unit as a whole. Current studies seek to understand the elevated risk of transmitting HIV to infants among women who acquire HIV during pregnancy.
The Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities Branch supports studies focused on developing safe and accurate techniques for making prenatal diagnoses for various intellectual and developmental disabilities and other conditions that might have long-term effects on health and well-being.
To better understand preconception care and prenatal care and how they can promote a healthy pregnancy, the NICHD supports a variety of other activities. Some of these activities are managed through the components listed above; others are part of NIH-wide or collaborative efforts in which the NICHD participates. Some of these activities are listed below.

Ekaterina Gerasimova: Russia's Super Spy Honey Trap
Ekaterina Gerasimova pics show her as being a fun-loving, girl-next-doory type of chick. But she's actually a secret Russian spy honey trap!
She's already responsible for exposing and seriously damaging the reputations of multiple critics of her bosses at the Kremlin, by releasing sex tapes and videos depicting drug use and acts not befitting married men. She is like the modern day Mata Hari.

Chemicals and Waste Management
Chemicals bring many benefits to societies and represent a vital element of human development. However, without good management and disposal practices, chemical substances as well as wastes have the potential to pose significant risks to human health and the environment, with the poorest members of the global community, particularly women and children, most vulnerable to their negative effects.
UNDP promotes the Sound Management of Chemicals (SMC) and Waste as an important aspect of our work to reduce global poverty and achieve the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).
UNDP's targets unsustainable management approaches, as well as unsustainable consumption and production patterns, including poor design and material choices. These issues are the root causes for resource depletion, waste generation and pollution, impeding sustainable human development.
Within the framework of the Strategic Approach to International Chemicals Management (SAICM), UNDP advocates for the integration of sound chemicals management priorities into national environmental and poverty reduction planning frameworks and helps countries access resources to improve their chemical and waste regimes.
UNDP assists developing countries and countries with economies in transition to:
- Integrate the sound management of chemicals into national development plans and policies
- Manage chemicals of particular concern for pro-poor policies (POPs, ODS, mercury, lead, heavy metals and others)
- Strengthen national capacities on integrated waste management, including waste prevention, reuse and recycling, and disposing a range of waste streams.
- Supporting national and local efforts towards a "Green economy" and sustainable materials management.
In addition UNDP assists developing countries and countries with economies in transition to set-up national financial mechanisms to access, integrate and sequence different sources of environmental financing.
Important cross-cutting elements of UNDP's work in the area of chemicals- and waste- management are the Safeguarding of the Global Climate, Gender Mainstreaming, as well as the protection of International Waters.
UNDP's chemicals and waste management work draws funding from UNDP's Environment and Energy Thematic Trust Fund (TTF), the Global Environment Facility (GEF), the Multilateral Fund for the Implementation of the Montreal Protocol (MLF), the SAICM Quick Start Programme Trust Fund (QSPTF), as well as various other bi-lateral donors and partners.

Only one in 10 older adults is driving a car that meets their needs, according to a study from the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety. With nearly 90 percent of motorists 65 and older suffering from health issues that affect driving safety, finding a car that adapts to conditions, such as lack of flexibility or muscle strength, while maintaining safety and comfort can be difficult. Data from the AAA survey also reveals that only one in 10 senior drivers with chronic, age-related health issues is driving a vehicle that has features like keyless entry and larger dashboard controls that can assist with such conditions. To better equip the "silver tsunami" for driving safety and comfort, AAA recommends the following vehicle features to address specific health conditions:

Being fashionable and enterprising were organic traits that were instilled in me since day one. I was raised by parents who were self-taught designers and merchants. I was brought up in an environment of fabrics/prints and profits/losses. Even our vacations revolved around foreign manufacturing locations or market opportunities. It was this encompassing environment that subconsciously planted the seed for fashion and flair, which led me to eventually leave the life of investment banking to pursue my passion in the arts. While at school I excelled in finance, and post-graduation, like most of the students at university in the States, I lined up eager and ready to sacrifice everything in order to obtain a position with high powered investment bank. By recruiting and hiring me, JP Morgan gave me the greatest gift, the gift of insight. Even though I loved my time there and I made lifelong friendships, the greatest thing I learned at Morgan was that I had no real desire to be a part of the masters of the universe. Faith had another path for me, and it wasn't Finance it was Fashion. It's funny looking back now I feel fortunate I was able to find what I love and have the courage to follow it.
I get this all the time. "How do you come up with these designs? Where did this technique derive from?" And I guess the honest answer is through perseverance. Art, travel, culture, nature and historical designers all play a roll in my thought process, but at the end of the day my constant driving force is her. I love seeing her wearing KAS and bringing my canvas to life. The most vibrant prints and intricate cutwork don't compare to her rocking my outfit.
Often times I find myself not able to spend as much time as I would like in the creative and design process, which I enjoy the most; as I am too busy running the business.
The entire creative process is a high, from Sketch, to Swatch, to ultimately the Style. It all feeds into one another. Putting best sellers in the boutiques is the self-fulfilling goal every designer is after. However, selling and placing a collection is only the beginning, seeing it through and making sure your partners preservers and profits, is the key to longevity in this industry.
And as for the lows, I would say are imitators or copy cats. Our field is full of talented individuals, and the industry thrives off creativity, so whenever you see someone mirroring and mimicking your every move, either in strategy or styling its sad. But then I am reminded of the famous English author Charles Colton's quote, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, so thank you.
Haha, I can't believe you are asking this, she will love this! We have our own DJ in the design studio, DJ Rose from Brooklyn. And she knows how to get everyone in the mood. If you are curious to hear what she is playing you can follow our showroom tunes on spotify.com/KASNEWYORK.
Get a partner. As an entrepreneur there are so many things to attend to and if you have a trusting sound board whose interests are inline with yours it becomes all that easier. I have been fortunate with great support from my mentor, my mother, but I never had a co-founder, which would have made the journey all the more smooth.

Re: Quiet your Honda 2000
Unfortunatly the offending users are not considerate of others and anchor on top of someone else as has happened to me. They are usually in smaller boats and try to fit into smaller spots. Also they are not quiet. They can be heard from much greater distances than 50'. I suggest you get in your dingy after dark on a quiet night and see how far away it can be heard.
While hanging the genset makes it less annoying for you I'll bet it makes the noise louder for your neighbors.
Not all wind generators make noise. Practical Sailor did an excellent test a while back. It guided me to the choice I have. The only time you even know it's there is in gusty wind.It makes a sound like distant surf.
Re: Quiet your Honda 2000
It just hit me that you have turned the philosophy of some completely upside down. They hope to get everyone to suspend the use of generators while you hope to get them to use suspended generators. Nicely done, that!
Re: Quiet your Honda 2000
if someone is anchored so close to me they can hear my electricity generate--they are way too close. seeing i am already generating energy, then they came in after me, which means they need to relocate. sorry, folks, realistically speaking, there is no way that, in an anchorage you will hear either my generator or my burps. if youare able to hear such, you are WAY too close. my honda is only able to be heard less than 50 ft frommy boat--i checked personally while it was running.
btw--if your honda is hanging , make sure is hanging without any angle--wont work if tipped.
also--SLAPPING HALYARDS MAKE FOR BROKEN HALYARDS. TIE EM OFF SOMEHOW.

I try to be considerate of the boats around me, but some people get pissed just at the sight of it, running or not. Most of the time, with a slight breeze in the rigging, you can't hear it from 50' away, but some folks just can't let it go.

And mine only gets run late at night controlled by a thermostat. It is also only used when it is below 45° at night. In Maine that is when most anchorages are empty(Oct, Nov, Dec, Apr, May). I never run it if I think it may bother someone although it is very quiet. I could make it even quieter with a muffler but it runs so cleanly that it is not needed.

Re: Quiet your Honda 2000
the only silent creation of energy comes from solar.
generators with engines have noise factors. honda and yamaha are the quietest generators i have ever heard, and cannot be heard at 80 ft, the distance between boats in sd moorings. i placed a palette under mine with a cut up flat fender inside it--works great on the vibratory sounds caused by machine on deck.
the sound of energy being created is a rather soothing sound, even from a generator with an engine.
|Tim R.
Re: Quiet your Honda 2000
Hmmm, makes it easy to take out with my rifle when the fumes and noise start up
In this day and age I still wonder why folks need a generator. Between solar and wind power, you should not need a genset unless you insist on running the TV and AC. You also have the expense, possible mess and safety issues of carrying gasoline.
Unplug and enjoy a good book or even have a nice conversation.
We live at a dock that has free cable and we have a TV but still often just sit around and chat or work on a crossword or read.
My boat has an engine driven 5kw generator and we rarely use it. I can only think of one time we really needed it and that was for our reverse cycle heat when motoring on a very cold December day before the diesel furnace was installed.

Maybe you heard one that was out of tune or a different brand? It's only the vibration when it is setting on the deck that transfers below which we find objectionable. Hoisting it off the deck solves that.
My original comments were more in jest than anything, I certainly don't intend to come across as some sort of generator Nazi... I've long ago accepted that many cruisers apparently require such a supplement to their electrical demands, and the majority out there are obviously trying to be courteous in their use of them... Still, it's disappointing to see their popularity ever increasing in a place like Maine, where the infestation invariably seems to have been brought there on visiting boats "from away"...
Back in January, I and many others had a stay in Ft. Lauderdale's Lake Sylvia spoiled by a Canadian cruiser who ran a generator on his aft deck virtually all day, and well into the night... It wasn't a Honda, but rather a larger 3000 W open style, like something you'd pick up from Harbor Freight... The racket that thing made was unbelievable, it was like being at a construction site. Frankly, I was amazed that none of the shoreside residents called the police. The guys lack of courtesy, or sense of where he was - given the tenuous state of anchoring rights in precisely such a location in Florida today - was appalling... The complaints from a number of others anchored registered not at all, he simply insisted he needed to be running the damn thing, and a bit of a spontaneous celebration erupted when he finally moved on one morning...
The worst smell-of-their-own-farts offenders, however, are those who fire up their engine or generator, then conveniently choose that time to jump in their dinghy to go ashore... Those people should just be shot... (grin)

Removing one person for each person added to the rotation leaves us with not one bit more of energy than when we started.

After driving the car for about an hour I pulled a plug to read it. It looked much better than the other plugs. After studying the plug link and making comparisons to the pictures I would say that the Holley is only slightly rich and I need to bring timing down to around 14 deg advance from 16 degrees, but really the plug is very close to looking like the picture of best. Now here is a question for the BG tech! If the BG Mighty Demon carb I have listed on eBay don't sell can I replace the metering blocks with a set that is leaner or is changing the jets all that can be done?
|camaro freak
We Got It.....
Awesome plug info link... Ok folks we got it! I tested the distributor and wires and all was good! I built a spark plug tester using a 24 volt spark ingintor from a furnace and the transformer so I could test each spark plug. As I went from plug to plug I noticed that each spark looked weak. The sparks were orange in color and not like the nice blue spark that came from the wire when I tested it. We got to plug 8 and guess what? NO spark!!! None at all!!! So we made a trip to Advance and what the heck lets grab those 5 year warranty E3 plugs at $7 each and see what happens! Well, after laying a patch 25 feet long and burying the speedo I would say we found our problem! I plan to let the motor cool some and then read a few plugs and adjust if necessary. I do however plan to stay with a Holley. I want a 750 double pumper HP carb, I may consider an 850 double pumper after reading the test results from the 383 build that Chevy High Perf magazine got! If someone has a good new or like new Holley like I want, drop me a note in the next few hours, well by 9 pm est and maybe we can work out a deal. The BG carb I have is like new, honestly, we have only put about 100 miles on it. We changed the PV and put reusable blue gaskets on it and that is all we did outside of adjusting it. After 9 pm est it will be on eBay! Thanks to all for the help!!! I hope this thread is helpful to someone else!
[QUOTE=camaro freak]When they say a plug has carbon build up, what causes that???
Check here>>
|camaro freak
As soon as I can confirm what our problem with this engine is I plan to do something with the carb. I'm thinking that the BG carb is just way too rich for this engine. I'm thinking it is the metering blocks not jetting or PV. The off idle stumble/ flutter happens in park at 1,000 rpm and continues to about 1,800 rpm however when I drive the car and from a stand still nail the peddle to the floor the car stumbles and flutters all the way down the road until I let off the peddle and then it stalls out dead and is hard to restart! I pulled the plugs and one looks heavy carbon on it. All look black sooty at base, 4 have slight dark tan on the center and electrode, and 2 are slightly wet. These NGK plugs have 100 miles on them and they look like they have 10,000 miles of running rich on them. We are using a friends Holley 750 right now. We would like to stay with a double pumper carb for tune ability! When they say a plug has carbon build up, what causes that???
What RPM is the engine running rough at? The specs for that cam are for 2200-5800rpm. If you don't like the way it runs below 2200rpm then you have a cam with too much duration. Have you tried to recurve the distributor. That cams gonna need alot more initial timing than 10*. Buy a kit that will limit the distributor's mechanical advance to say 12*-14* max. Thats just the distributor's mechanical adv. range.(no vac. adv connected) Needs bushings to limit the mech. range.(not sure if there is a kit for stock HEI to limit amount of mech. adv.. I know there are spring kits to change the rate of adv.) Verify with a timing tape. Say you have 10* initial at idle with a timing light, rev it up to 3000rpm and the timing light should indicate 22*-24* if you have it limited correctly. Then adjust your initial timing to say 18* at idle by turning the distributor. Then verify with a timing light that the total timing(18* initial plus 14* dist. mech adv.) is no more than 32*@3000rpm.(no vac. adv. connected). Leave the vac. adv. disconnected temporarily, then see if it runs better on the road with out detonating.(listen for ping and check plugs for small black specs, if you have ether, you need to back off the initial or mech, or both, or slow down the mech. with heavier springs ) You will have to fine tune both initial adv. and mech adv. to get best tune, takes some time to get it just right, but these settings should get you running better without getting into detonation at WOT just to see if its your timing causing rough running. Try it! Then you will have to hook up the vac. adv. and play with it. You will probably have to get a different vac. can for the dist. that limits its adv. and when it comes in. Thats a whole other issue. You may have to get an MSD dist. for its tuning versatility?(mech. adv.)
Then you have to dial in the carb, but get the timing done 1st. You may have to get a higher stall converter/lower rear gears if you can't get it to run at low rpms to your satisfaction after getting the timing right.
Just my 2cents.
|Before you get rid of the Demon make sure you are getting a good shot of fuel from the accelerator pump. You should be able to see the fuel come out of the squirters when the throttle is activated. If there is no fuel from the squirters check the accelerator pump or the adjustment. I've been there. Just my 2 cents worth.
|camaro freak
Put the BG Mighty Demon back on car. Still has the same problem. So, I swapped the BG carb for a known to be good 750 Holley. Well, big improvement. The off idle flutter is now just a slight stumble when in park. The engine sounds much better but when I drive it I notice a jarring flutter as I accelerate normally and for a 383 I think my 4 cylinder VUE has much more power. Something isn't right with this engine and I can't figure it out. It feels like a dead cylinder or something. Because the Holley did make a noticeable improvement, I am getting rid of the BG carb (at a big loss) and getting a Holley (much easier to work with and adjust plus better performance for me anyway)! The BG carb is only a year old and I only put about 50 miles on it but I have waisted enough time with it. When the BG carb is on the engine the problem I am having is much worse.
|camaro freak
BG tech...
Got the carb apart and going through it now. I will check these items. It has a 2,500 rpm stall converter. Upon taking the carb apart I found, on the secondary side only, in the area that the power valve would be a thimble amount of a black jelly looking substance. The primary side was clean as new. Not sure if that would cause our issues or not but I plan to clean it up a install new gaskets. I also switched the power valve to a 45 from the factory 65 because my vacuum is between 10 and 11". I will also increase timing to 16 degrees as advised by the BG hotline and report my results soon. I am concerned though that much over 12 degrees and I will have starting and or run on issues, we will see what happens.
|Tech @ BG
|camaro freak
The vacuum readings were wrong. Tested today with another guage and here is the results:
@ 1,000 rpm 12 deg adv in park its showing a slightly bouncing 14 to 15" vac.
@ 700 rpm in drive with foot on brake its showing a slightly bouncing 10 to 11" vac.
On both test the guage will occasionally drop 2 or 3 numbers then come back to where it was at.
The off idle fluttering stumble is still there. Now if I slowly bring the engine up to 2,000 rpm then nail the peddle to the floor there is no flutter or stumble. It accelerates fast and sounds good. When I nail the peddle I notice the vacuum guage drops to "0" then jumps fast and smoothly up the scale.
With the above vacuum readings what power valve should I be running?
|camaro freak
Ok will play with the timing some more but I really think Im gonna find the problem in the carb. I am gonna try to swap another carb on and see what happens. As for the vacuum readings, well the guage I have is brand new first time used and thats what it shows.
