Optical Interconnect Test
Optical Interconnects – when the cable limits your speed
The ever increasing data rate of ASIC I/O pins and computer interfaces drives existing interconnects and electrical cable technologies to the limits. The long time to market for USB 3.0 is one example of the limits of electrical interconnect technologies at today's data rates.
When you have to include optical technologies in your digital designs, Agilent helps you to focus where it counts. Our 25 years expertise in photonic measurement will allow you to spend your time where it makes a difference for your project: get your digital designs to market.
Optical interconnect technologies are about to enter mainstream markets as the optical performance advantages become more and more relevant, while the cost advantages of electrical interconnects are diminishing at high data rates.
Although optical technologies are used extensively in data centers and telecommunications, the expansion of the application spaces gives some new challenges:
- Component prices for mainstream computer applications see even higher pressure compared to the telecommunications industry. This needs to be reflected in the test strategy.
- Volumes will be a factor of 100 to 10000 higher than typical volumes for communication and data center applications. Again, this needs to be reflected and addressed with an appropriate test strategy and test processes.
Despite cost of test as one of the biggest drivers, there is the conflicting need to have flexible test solutions. Flexibility is important because typically manufacturers want to use similar test approaches along the life cycle from R&D to design verification and manufacturing. As well, there is a large variety of industry and de-facto standards for optical transmitters (like Fiber Channel, Optical Ethernet, InfiniBand) plus some proprietary implementations (e.g. Light Peak). Ideally, a test solution would cover more than one standard to reduce complexity in procurement, maintenance and test software engineering.

Winner of several awards for design excellence, including the 2003 GOODDESIGN Award from the Chicago Athenaeum Museum of Design and Architecture, the Best of NeoCon Gold Award, Silver at the Industrial Design Society of America's Industrial Design Excellence Awards, and the FIRA Ergonomic Excellence Award, it blew away the ergonomic and aesthetic community upon release. The seat, back, arms, and other ergonomic features of the chair are highly customizable; there are over 250,000 variations of the Mirra Chair through the personalization options above.
Constructed of elastic, pliable materials, the Mirra chair is also the most adaptable chair out there. It fits any size like a glove, intuitively molding itself to support and comfort your contours, weight distribution, and height. Mirra comes equipped with the patented PostureFit back support system made famous by the Aeron chair, as well as AirWeave seating and the TriFlex back support system. Mirra should easily fit any user without having to be manually adjusted, but of course, Herman Miller has made sure his chair is as adaptable as possible.
Users can adjust the seat height, seat depth, tilt tension, tilt limiter, forward tilt, arm height, arm width, arm angle, and lumbar support. There aren't any chairs out there that will fit you better than the Mirra. In addition, there are few chairs out there that you can more easily make your own.
The Herman Miller Mirra Chair is also known by the following manufacturer Item Numbers: MR1, MR2, MR121PFM, MR221PFM, MR121AFM, MR221AFM, MR122AAM, MR222AAM, MR122AAF, MR222AAF, MR123AAM, MR223AAM, MR123AAF, MR223AAF.
Studio 7.5 is a German company dedicated to freedom of movement and design. They made the Mirra Chair in that same spirit; as a product marked by many fingerprints, suited for many purposes, many offices, and many rooms. Adaptability and well-tuned adjustment capability is one of the main qualities the finished Mirra Chair possesses, aside from exquisite comfort and unflinching support. Studio 7.5 isn't like most firms, and the chair they produced isn't like most chairs. The Herman Miller Mirra Chair is a new thing in the world, an office chair with the distinctive looks of the Aeron, the comfort of the Embody, and the adjustment capability of an Amia. It's not a Frankenstein by any means, however; it has the beauty of Generation Chair to boot. You can read more about the Mirra Chair's design story. The process that led to the creation of the chair was profound and profoundly interesting. At Studio 7.5, things are run very differently from a typical America business. They were committed not only to the idea of the chair, of the product, but also to the idea of their unique company. So committed, in fact, that they have no bosses, no owners, no employees. They're a collective of innovative designers who's original business plan was to buy a 7.5 ton truck and move their studio from place to place: thus the name.
So who is Studio 7.5? If there are no bosses and no owners, who makes the products? Who designs them and runs the business.
Burkhard Schmitz, Claudia Plikat, and Carola Zwick were the original members of the team, later joined by Roland Zwick. All of them had backgrounds in industrial design, and long resumes full of success, beauty, and excellent functionality. When asked about the Mirra Chair, one of their latest and greatest productions, they brighten, and can speak in depth and with intense detail about the chair. About the Mirra chair: "We define not only how the chair looks but how it performs," says Carola. "We're very involved with its physical behavior, because beauty is not only what you see, it's also what you feel." This is the philosophy that led to the paradox designs of less material and more support, less adjustments and a better fit, and high value at low cost. It also led to one of the most innovative chairs this decade, and in more ways than one. Studio 7.5 blended scientific research, ergonomic study and fashion-forward aesthetics to forge a signature chair: the Mirra.
So. Of course, when you're making a purchase on a new office chair, comfort, support, ergonomics, beauty and pedigree should be at the forefront of your mind. But don't forget to consider the actual makers of the product. The companies, sensibilities, and physical hands that built the chair. In the case of the Herman Miller Mirra Chair, built by German Studio 7.5, thinking about the designers can only improve your opinion of the chair you're looking at. Because in their capable and creative hands, Herman Miller was able to produce yet another wondrous, innovative, and even revolutionary office chair for the day to day life of working folks. With Studio 7.5, you know what you're buying; quality, hard work, beauty, and plenty of good old fashioned comfort, support, and functionality.

First ImpressionsThe Herman Miller Mirra Chair looks similar to the earlier, and era-defining, Aeron Chair. Of course, it's not the first or last of the modern office chairs to bear a resemblance to Aeron, but it is one of the first to assimilate the innovative stylization and groundbreaking design without become a copy. The Mirra Chair is it's own piece of furniture history, a unique and valuable step forward in the world or ergonomics, features, comfort, and style. It's a chair built to fit the human body, keep it cool and supported and comfortable, and it's very successful. The design of the chair, dreamed up and executed by the German Studio 7.5, maintains a complicated paradox; a more-is-more attitude toward features and innovation combined with a less-is-more aesthetic and reliance on material. Mirra is a very well executed chair, and Herman Miller can rightly be proud of it's clear steps forward from the grandaddy of them all, the Aeron. Nearly everything about the Mirra Chair is adjustable and customizable, especially if you make use of Smart Furniture's Smart Designer tool, and the result is a very comfortable chair that can be made even more precisely comfortable, supportive and tailored by your own hand.The X FactorThis one has two. That cool looking AirWeave suspension seat, which has heft and surface area but no weight or wasted material. Very cool. But even more attractive, this is an incredibly high value chair. It has all the comfort and support you could ask from from an office chair, but it costs $128 less than the Aeron and $600 less than the Embody, it's main competitors.The Bottom LineYou won't find a better chair than the Mirra Chair for work and office. Highly recommended. Beyond recommended; urged.Other CommentsThe Mirra can be compared to the Aeron when it comes to the overall shape and "transparent" aesthetic, and for some that might be an unattractive feature, but it's a very different and very unique piece of furniture.

The plastic back on the Mirra is very irritating on my shoulder blades. This is a very uncomfortable and distracting problem for me, as the tips of my shoulder blades are constantly grinding into the hard plastic backrest. I've had to drape towels over the backrest to relieve my sore shoulder blade tips.I'm 5'6", 125 lbs. The middle of the seat pan is pretty comfortable, but if I sit properly in the chair (with my lower back in full contact with the lumbar & backrest) my butt is no longer in the comfy center of the seat pan; it's near the back edge, where the mesh is less forgiving. After 2 or 3 hours I feel distinct pressure points on my butt. As a programmer it's imperative I be able to concentrate for at least 4-6 hours at a time. The pressure points on my butt and shoulder blades constantly force me to stop what I'm doing and address my comfort level. It is precisely the opposite of what was supposed to happen when I bought the chair!I gave the Mirra 3 weeks to see if I could either adjust my way out of or simply get used to the discomfort, but it didn't happen. I fidget a lot in this chair and find I'm constantly trying to locate some elusive sweet spot of comfort. Meanwhile, its aesthetics have been compromised by bath towels and a foam pad, negating the fact I waited weeks to receive a custom colored chair :\There are parts about the Mirra I do like. The Mirra is clearly superior to any given sub-$100 task chair. The lumbar support feels absolutely amazing on my lower back. The chair feels very solid & well constructed. The seat pan and backrest recline well in duet, and you can really fine tune it. I like how it looks (when it's not covered in towels and pads), and I have no doubt what so ever that the Mirra would have lasted a long time (and been well worth the money) if not for the inexplicable disregard for comfort.The engineering hype re: ergonomics seems true on a technical level, as my lower back feels great in this chair. But at this price point I expect both ergonomics *and* comfort. I really don't see what my IT peers love so much about this chair, as the Mirra just doesn't deliver for me. Unfortunately I'm going to have to return this for something - anything - with proper padding.

Great Choice for Back Surgery Patients!
By Kathy F.
from NC
I'm 4 weeks post-op from an extensive spinal fusion and finding a good office chair before I went back to work was important to me. After much research, I decided on this Mirra with multiple options. Delivery was made in 2 days! Assembly was a breeze. After sitting in it for a straight 45 minutes (way more than I will when I get back to work without getting up for some reason!), my back didn't hurt at all. This is HUGE! I'm very pleased with the Mirra and even more pleased with Smart Furniture. Love the "name your price" option! :)

About Me Budget Shopper
I work at home and am on the phone / computer for hours at a time. I was developing sore neck and shoulder muscles from using an improper desk chair. Where as I wouldn't have normally spent this much money on a desk chair, the features won me over. I'm so glad that I spent the research time and the money for this chair. My shoulder and neck are healing. I'm able to sit without getting kinked muscles for hours at a time. This is a good value for the dollars.

Aeron out. Mirra in. My new fav chair.
By Jeff
from Miami, FL
I enjoyed an Aeron chair for about 8 years. For the past year or so, I found it was feeling less and less comfortable for long periods of time, so I decided to switch to a Mirra chair. Boy am I glad I did. It's a personal preference, but the Mirra chair is much more comfortable for sitting at a desk using a computer. There's something about the firmer back and stronger lumbar support that makes the chair more comfortable for longer uses. Highly recommended.

Great Chair and nice design
By jburst
Superb chair
Excellent order assistance & delivery
By Rachel
from Chicago, IL
The chair is perfect. My husband works from home and the chair has helped his back problems. He is very comfortable - even after sitting for hours at a time.
Karen was a joy to work with in purchasing the Mirra chair for my husband's birthday. The shipping company phones and set a delivery time (three hour window), they were prompt and showed up around the two hour mark. The chair arrived in perfectly assembled. When my husband had questions about one of the features of the chair that was not ordered Karen said we could ship it back and that Smartfurniture would arrange the shipment. But, in the end my husband realized he didn't need the feature and have been extreamly happy with his gift.
Excellent office chair-Worth the wait!
By Paul and Susan

This was a large purchase for us, and is the most expensive chair in our house. My wife needed an ergonomic comfortable office chair so we went for the best, and we are happy as can be with our purchase. She tells me often how much she "loves" it.
Herman Miller Mirra-Wow! Showstopper!
By Ben's Discerning I
from St Petersburg, FL
I just moved into a brand new office that overlooks the ocean and has all brand new furnishings. I chose this chair because of its many adjustments and breathability. People do not recognize my view or my other furniture...they all love the chair and want to sit in it! Be careful yours does not go missing!

Best-in-class chair
By omniwig
from Pinole, CA
This chair is great. My previous chair encouraged me to slouch, whereas this chair encourages me to sit up straight. It's comfortable and breathes nicely. It is aesthetically pleasing. Very happy with the purchase. Assembly is also quite easy.The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is due to the fact that there is probably a better chair out there, but it probably costs more than I'm willing to pay. After the hours of reading/research on this chair, I think the Mirra is best-in-class.
By KarenL
from TN
I wouldn't trade my Mirra Chair for any other. It has provided me with years of comfort and support and I love all of the adjustments and available options (and colors). I highly recommend getting this chair with adjustable arms, because there are times when I'll want to raise them up or move them down, and the tilt limiter is also key. Sometimes I don't want to recline all the way back. Another clever part of the design is the adjustable seat depth – I'm not very tall and it's nice to have the front folded down so it doesn't hit my legs. This chair fits me perfectly.
Should Have Bought This Sooner!
By Heather
from Tennessee
I had a knockoff, low quality chair prior to purchasing the Mirra Chair. Now that I've sat in it for over a month, I wish I had made the investment sooner! My upper back pain has completely gone away, I have better posture, and I've adjusted the Mirra to fit me perfectly. (I'm 5'1" and was able to adjust the chair height, lumbar support and arms just the way I want them.) I will say it was worth the extra cost to have the Tilt Limiter.If you were like me and are unsure of what features to add, I recommend watching some of Smart Furniture's YouTube videos on the Mirra Chair and calling them. Melanie walked me through each feature (for example - explained I don't need the Flex Front Adj Seat because of my height).
nice chair- Get Forward tilt feature!
By Eric with neck and upper back problems
from NH
This chair is all about keeping you in good posture while sitting at a computer. The surfaces, both back and seat are firm yet supportive. I would highly recommend you spend the extra for the forward tilt feature. I have it in this potition 80% of the time as it is a dedicated computer station chair for me. When I flip it back into the neutral potition I almost feel like I'm reclining a bit. Smartfurniture is great at communicating to you durinng the order/shippment process.
Not for me
By John Lane
from Oslo, Norway
It created pressure points for me on the thighs,there's a padding foam under the front of the seat that pushes up on the thighs. And the back doesn't have any give,it's too hard and firm. I've tried the aeron and that was way better,but I went with the Mirra because of the price and good review that it was supposedly better than aeron. It wasn't
To Only Chair for Me

I have a herniated disk from sitting in another chair here at work. I bought this chair for the office, as I have one at home already. It's the only chair I can sit in and be comfortable. It allows me to be able to keep my job!You will love this chair.
Fantastic Chair
By Wayfinder
from Liberty Lake, WA
As a long time Aeron chair owner for both my work and home offices, I was hesitant to go with the Mirra. Smart Furniture's extraordinary return policy is the reason that I gambled on this chair, and I'm very glad I did. I find it more comfortable than that Aeron, and for someone that sits in front of a computer for extended periods, this chair is ideal.
Smart Furniture is THE place to buy your chair - hand's down the best. I also opted to have my chair assembled, so that it was a "turn key" shipment. Open the well packaged chair, and you're ready to go.
My Back Is Happy
By Office Administrator
from New York, NY
My back is fickle: it's mostly fine except when it's not... then my back is one heck of a problem. Bad office chairs have caused back issues for me. I work long hours in front of a computer and have gone through several office store brand chairs over the years, none of them really suited me since I could never find the right adjustments for them.The Mirra Chair is close to perfect. My minor complaint is that this chair is VERY FIRM since it has little or no padding on the chair. To be comfortable in this chair, you have to completely/properly sit in it. Once there, you can sit for hours and you will not notice the lack of padding. No complaints from my back, either.You cannot perch on the edge of the seat because it will eventually be uncomfortable.I purchased the Mirra with adjustable arms, lumbar support, and seat tilt mechanism. All these adjustments have been great for my back. After three weeks of ownership, I enjoy using my chair.This chair is perfect for small to medium build women because the seat is not longer than my thigh, as I found in some store brand executive chairs (built for tall and larger men, I'm sure).I have a small office and the mesh back is perfect: the chair blends well and looks great.
Should have bought this chair years ago
By Jon S
from Sacramento, CA
Since college, I had been using a bargain-basement office chair that I bought at Staples. It had very few adjustments that could be made for comfort. Sitting in it did not promote proper posture in any way.The Mirra has lots of ways you can tweak the chair to fit your body. Plus, it's just plain comfortable to sit on.It costs a lot of money, but if you sit in a chair all day long, you owe it to yourself to be sitting in a chair that will maximize your comfort. Don't skimp on your long term health and well being.
Delivery was prompt, and the product arrived in good condition.
wonderful chair, worth every penny
By versute
from Atlanta, GA
Love this chair. I suffer from degenerative disk disease, and needed a chair I can sit at for longer periods of time. I am so glad I got the forward-tilt add-on with this chair, as I use it all the time. It helps keep my spine aligned better than the standard flat seat.
Best money I ever spent
By girlfriday
from NYC
I had a Mirra chair at the office and never noticed how comfortable and ergonomic it was until I started working from home. My chair (just a regular office chair) at home would hurt my back and I wasn't able to sit in for long which meant I could only work for short periods of time before I needed to lay down and ease the back pain. I decided to invest in the Mirra after returning to the office for a one day meeting and noticed how at the end of the day, I felt like I hadn't been sitting down for 8 hours straight - my back did not hurt one bit. This is easily the best money I have ever spent. It is worth every penny.
Mirra Chair
By Cher
from Indiana
I have bought the usual desk chairs at the local shops but I plan to work from home in the future and wanted a comfortable chair if I was to be spending hours at the computer. This chairs rolls so much better - it is amazing that a simple thing like that is way better with this design. The lumbar support is so comfortable. I love the citron green color I rewarded myself with. This is like the Cadillac of chairs and yes, worth the extra expense. When ordering the chair, I didn't know what features I really needed [...] I felt comfortable then ordering the chair plus they offered my money back if I wasn't totally happy. I paid to have it put together [...]

My husband and I ordered the Mirra Chair after using one at a [...]. It was our gift to each other for Christmas and both of us are delighted with our gift.It was easy to assemble (my husband got that job), is a very attractive addition to our library, and is very comfortable.We use the chair every day while using our computer and have no more back or neck pain.If you need a new computer or desk chair, this is your chair. While it is pricey, we will no doubt have many years of comfort from this well built product.
Excellent Office Chair
By Adam
from Massachusetts
This is an excellent office chair. I can sit in it for hours at the computer without getting any aches. The construction is high-quality and is very sturdy. The armrests have some play to them but seem to be well connected (perhaps this was my fault when assembling the chair). I would recommend this chair to anyone looking for a good office or task chair.

Love my Mirra Chair
By Bluebell
I have been using my Mirra chair for 4 months now. I work from home and I sit in this chair for at least 8 hours a day. I don't get back pain anymore, I don't squirm around looking for a comfy position to sit in in this chair. The back is hard and yet also slightly flexi (very comfy) and the seat is just lovely, the mesh supports very well and yet I never get the dreaded dead butt feeling..it is perfect the way it takes the pressure off and yet is very firm.Love that I can adjust the depth of the seat as well so I have never had the Mirra digging into the back of my legs...and all the arm adjustments.If I had to describe this chair in one word: Perfect!
Smart Furniture were awesome, so many personalizing choices on their website, great price, quick shipping, came fully assembled.When the chair came, one of the wheels was broken (maybe by the shipping company). I phoned Smart Furniture straight away, emailed them a photo and they immediately sent me a new one...fast! I would buy from them again without hesitation!

Boschini: TCU stadium renovation the reason for drop in grant money for FY2012
The amount of money that TCU received in grants and contributions in fiscal year 2012 was significantly lower than in FY2011, and with good reason- the university wasn't actively fundraising to build a stadium in 2012.
TCU can't complete sweep, falls 3-0 to Texas
C.J Hinojosa proved to be the thorn in TCU's side, as the Horned Frogs couldn't pull off the sweep, falling to the Texas Longhorns 3-0.
Hinojosa, dating back to Friday's game, reached base in eight straight at-bats and drove in two runs Saturday, leading the Longhorns to a victory.

Cafe La Semeuse Ground Soleil Levant Fair Trade coffee is a blend of 100% Arabica organic and fair trade coffee beans from Guatemala, Peru and Indonesia. Not only is it a tasty brew but it gives you a sense of good conscience knowing that you are supporting the farmers who grow the coffee while protecting the environment.
Brought out by the Swiss method of roasting at high-altitude the Soleil Levant has an aroma that is a rich seductive harmony of aroma notes with exquisite traces of quince and orange shortbread.
The Cafe La Semeuse Soleil Levant has a lively and silky flavor as it releases pleasant hints of lime and orange blossom that fades to a fleeting and light aftertaste leaving a pleasant feeling of freshness on the palate.
The folks at Cafe La Semeuse call this coffee "Rewarding"! Available in whole bean and ground 8.8oz bags and 100% compostable 7g ESE 44m pods.
Green coffee beans are usually shipped in 132lb bags, (60 Kilograms) and world-wide production statistics are compiled on the number of bags.

Michael Rosso ♦ Lets all do our part and start brewing more coffee
MannyGate7 Very informative thank you!
Philip Coats Interesting to see that coffee comes from such a wide variety of places. Curious to know just how much the taste of each varies (with a similar roast temperature) due to soil composition and other localized variables.
Dean Dahlstedt Absolutely amazing that coffee is the 4th most popular drink in the world, yet it appears to be produced in such small quantities in many regions. This truly is a special drink. I now know why Hawaiian coffee so expensive. Only 100 bags a year! How many times have I roasted a Panama Esmeralda Gesha or a Kenya AA without realizing that those are the very best of only 90 and 850 bags per year respectively. These fact really make me realize how truly lucky we are to be able to enjoy the very best of this wonderful drink. Great article, thanks.
paul hees Great stuff, a lot of interesting information presented in a condensed but appealing format. As a big fan of both, it never occurred to me that Ethiopia produces 8 times as much as Kenya. Wondering if China is still growing- thought Yunnan was on course to rival Vietnam? Thanks!

The bill would prohibit those under age 17 from using tanning beds once Governor Andrew Cuomo signs it into law, as he is expected to do.
Dan Humiston -- the owner of Tanning Bed chain and a past president of the national Indoor Tanning Assoc. -- says there's no difference between tanning outside in the sunshine and in a tanning bed because he says the ultra-violet light is the same. "The beauty of a tanning salon is that it's a controlled environment, and, unlike the sun, we can make sure that people don't get a sunburn," he says, calling Tuesday an "unfortunate" day for the people of New York. He says it also sends a message the government knows better than the parents. Humiston is also concerned about the potential impact on his business, saying every bit of revenue contributes to generating a profit. |
Roswell Park Cancer Institute had pushed for passage of the bill. Dr. Ilene Rothman, part of Roswell Park's department of dermatology, calls it a huge step in preventing the risk of melanoma. "Melanoma is a potentially fatal form of skin cancer. It's the second most common cancer in those aged 15 to 29," Rothman says. She also adds the effective indoor tanning is cumulative -- saying the longer a person tans, the more a person tans, the younger a person starts tanning, the worse the risk. |
New York currently bars indoor tanning for children under 14, but allows 14- to 17-year-olds indoor tanning with parental permission.
California is the only state that bans the use of tanning beds for all minors under 18, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures. At least 31 states and a few counties restrict some minors, the group said.
Share Your Thoughts: Is this another example of "the nanny state", or is a ban justified because we are talking about protecting kids? Share your comments at the bottom of this page |
Horner cited Centers for Disease Control and Prevention data that showed nearly 10 percent of 14-year-olds, 12 percent of 15-year-olds and 15 percent of 16-year-olds have used indoor tanning facilities. The busiest times are in the spring, as boys and girls prepare for school dances and for what's called a "base tan" for the summer.
"By banning indoor tanning for those 16 years old and younger, the legislation provides significant cancer protections for those teens," Horner said Thursday. "However, we believe that 17-year-olds deserve the same protections as other minors and we will continue to pursue legislation to protect all young people from the dangers of indoor tanning."
The Assembly passed its version of the bill on Thursday afternoon.
"By increasing the age that individuals can begin to expose themselves to these harmful ultraviolet radiation devices, we hope to reduce their lifetime exposure to this potentially cancer-causing ultraviolet radiation," Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver said.
The American Cancer Society blames the popularity of tanning booths for the rising number of cases of skin cancer among young people. It's a claim disputed by tanning booth operators, who say the artificial rays produced in the booths are safe if used properly. John Overstreet of the national Indoor Tanning Association noted the booths provide its users with Vitamin D, and health agencies have noted a Vitamin D deficiency is now common.
"This is a disservice to parents who do their homework," said James Oliver, CEO of Beach Bum Tanning, with 53 salons in New York and New Jersey. He said the state law provided greater control of tanning than teens who will now lay outside unsupervised.
He blamed the cosmetics industry, which dominates sunblock sales and has waged a public relations campaign to persuade people that sunshine and tanning is bad for them. Instead, he said Vitamin D deficiency in America is widespread.
He said New York's law will cost salons about 5 percent to 10 percent in sales to that age group, but the stigma that the booths are harmful could cut sales in every age group.
The bill's sponsors, Democratic Assemblyman Harvey Weisenberg and Republican Sen. Charles Fuschillo, both of Long Island, noted that the World Health Organization classified tanning devices as a carcinogen in 2009.

OutlookTreatment success and future outcome depend on the severity of the fibroid or fibroids prior to treatment and the chosen treatment. Fibroids may affect fertility, but this depends on the size and location of the fibroids. Many women with fibroids are older than 35 years. This and other factors such as decreased egg quality and decreased ovulation contribute to their inability to become pregnant. Fibroids rarely turn into cancer. This is more likely to occur in women after menopause. The most common warning sign of cancer is a rapidly growing tumor that requires surgery.

Loading Mini-Grand Framework... Done.
Generating Administration Personality... Done.
"Hello there! Glad to meet you!"
Generating Characters... Done.
Four beings suddenly found themselves nowhere, able to see one another but nothing else. A synthesized voice came out of the nothing surrounding them.
"Welcome to a fantastic world, where creatures of all kinds lie in wait. I have gathered you four to partake in a dangerous journey in this world inhabited far and wide with monsters of all shapes and sizes, of very different temperaments, with fantastic and unbelievable powers. But worry not, for you all will have one of your own! But first, let's introduce you all.
First is Tulip Johnson. Once she was a mere gardener, but now she is a sentient cloud of flowers. Why, she could be a new monster herself! Watch out, for she can control the weather, even if she doesn't know it.
Here is Lady Jaska Von Til'defal, what a mouthful! She has quite the history, and has many names. Beware, for this elf has quite the past and all of the experiences that would come with it.
This here is Burgrar! He may look like a normal hamburger, but he is very much alive! I think I've even seen something like him. Hopefully his wish of being eaten won't come by too quickly.
Lastly, here is Golus. This golem may be large, but he is inhabited by two conflicting spirits. Hopefully they won't interfere with his performance in your journey."
Generating Setting... Done.
The four generated characters suddenly found themselves in a nice reddish brown forest, scattered across like the leaves on the floor. Odd creatures of all kinds, looking similar to plants and insects are scattered on in the forest. They hear loud commands as creatures clash. Slowly, they all notice a monster clinging to them affectionately.
"This is the Auburn Forest. Many budding trainers pass by here and many more experienced ones do as well. You will find that the creatures here are weak enough to be less than a match for yours. Don't lose them so early in your journey. If they or you die, then the rest of you will be able to continue on. Whether you fight each other or not, the monsters or trainers here should take care of you if you dawdle. This will continue until only one of you and your monster is left, at which point they will be the winner! Good luck!"

Looking for
all multi-room audio?
Wireless Multi-room Music Systems
Wouldn't it be cool to be able to listen to all the music on your computer in any room? Networked multi-room music systems let you access music on your computer, as well as online music services, throughout your home — without running wires. They're a great choice if you're renting and unable to install wire, or if you don't want to run new wire through your walls. In this article, we'll help you determine which kind of system is right for your home by asking a few simple questions.
Wireless multi-room systems let you access music from your computer and the Internet. |
Do you have a home network?
Wireless multi-room systems are made up of a number of players — one in every room in your house where you want music. Most of these players connect to your existing Wi-Fi® home network. However, a few systems, like Sonos, use their own proprietary wireless network. Either way, you'll be able to enjoy music from your computer and the Internet in any room with a player.
Whichever type of system you choose, we recommend using a high-speed Internet connection (rather than dial-up) for any wireless multi-room music system, because it'll give you the reliable, fast connection you need to stream music sources available online. If you're interested in setting up a network in your home, see our article on creating a home network.
What do you want to listen to?
Most systems give you the ability to listen to music from a computer or a storage device that's connected to your home network. There are also a lot of streaming services available on the Internet, and your ability to connect to these services may vary depending on the manufacturer of your player. Many players offer the ability to stream Internet radio stations and/or web-based music services like PANDORA® Internet radio, SIRIUS®, and Rhapsody®. (A separate subscription may be required.) This is a great option, because you won't have to turn on your computer to enjoy the variety and clarity of Internet radio.
This Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin Air lets you dock your iPod and listen to your music through the speaker, or use Apple's AirPlay technology to stream music wirelessly from your computer, iPod touch®, iPhone®, or iPad® to the speaker. |
Are you already set up for AirPlay®?
If iTunes® is your main source of music, then consider a system compatible with AirPlay. You can enjoy music from any iTunes-enabled source, like an iPod® or a laptop, in one room or throughout your entire home. For example, Bowers & Wilkins created an iPod docking speaker called the Zeppelin Air that also works with AirPlay, Apple's wireless music streaming system. The speaker can connect to any device compatible with AirPlay, so you can control playback and search albums and songs on your networked computer, iPhone®, iPod, or iPad® (iTunes® 10 or higher required). You can also add other AirPlay compatible speakers in the future, and use them to listen to additional music sources in other rooms in your home.
To find out more about AirPlay, check out Ralph's blog post.
How many rooms do you want music in?
The number of players you select for your system will depend on the number of rooms where you want music. If you're just adding music to one room, like a bedroom, you might want a stand-alone player, like a Wi-Fi radio or powered speaker. If you want music throughout your home, like in your office, den, or kitchen, you'll want to look for a multi-room system. Also, keep in mind that many of these systems are expandable, so you'll have the flexibility to add more rooms in the future.
What kind of audio gear do you have in each room?
The types of players you select will depend on what kind of audio gear you have or plan to put in each room. For example, if you want to add music to your home theater system, then you'll want a player with analog or digital audio outputs. These players connect to your audio system just like a CD player.
On the other hand, if you're adding music to a room where you don't already have an audio system, you might want to choose a player with built-in speakers. Or, you could go with one that has built-in amplification, and add your own speakers.
Some systems offer multi-room remote control using a downloadble app for you existing wireless device, like this one from Sonos for the iPhone®. |
How will you control the system?
Different manufacturers handle control in different ways. Any system will let you control each player individually, so you can turn the volume up or down and play, pause, or skip music. Some systems also offer remotes that you can carry from room to room, so you can control the entire system from that one device.
More and more manufacturers are releasing apps that let you control music players with a device that's always with you. The touchscreen controls of a smartphone let you easily search for songs, queue up playlists, and adjust volume.

"It served it's purpose..."
The location of the hotel was conviently located near our destination and it had a lot of places to eat nearby. I didn't like that my room was a stand alone room around the upstairs corner off in the dark and the door had no peep hole like all the other doors did. The guy running it was somewhat pleasant, but complained that there were so many of us […] booked there that night that he would have a lot of laundry to do once we left (you would think that if you barely have 3 rooms occupied on a regular weekend and our group had most of the rooms booked, he would be happy!) Also, I'm used to staying at hotels that have a variety of complimentary breakfast items, not just muffins and bagels. Other than that, the rooms were decent, nice sized, and they provided microwaves and mini refrigerators. No iron/ironing board. I had to check out a mini one from the front desk.

"O. K. for a Night"
It was a fine place to stay for the night. You need to ask for a hair dryer at the front desk if you didn't bring one. There was a jacuzzi tub in our suite, but nobody told us about the timer on the wall, so we didn't find it operative. Would have been nice if someone had told us how to operate it. The breakfast was very slim--just coffee, juice, bagels, […] and muffins--not even any fruit. Pročitajte višeAutentične Expedia recenzije gostiju
"Excellent value: clean and comfortable"
We were surprised at how nice our room in this basic, no-frills hotel was, especially at such a reasonable cost. Our room was very clean, pleasant and comfortable, and even though we were on a busy road it was quiet so our sleep was undisturbed. The staff was courteous and helpful. We would definitely stay there again.Autentične Expedia recenzije gostiju
"Room nice - service terrible"
The room was large, clean, and in good shape. The man at the front desk was EXTREMELY rude and unwelcoming. During check-in, I requested a room closest to the wireless internet hotspot since I work on the go. He just gives me a very rude stare, and says flatly, "Wi-Fi". Okay, so apparently he doesn't understand English that well, and doesn't care to […] be nice about it. Throughout check-in he was very short mannered, rude, and had quite the grumpy face. There were 3 of us from California staying in the room, and my friend from Vancouver met us at the hotel in the morning where we were to depart for breakfast at a local cafe. My friend from Vancouver came inside our room and helped us carry our things to our car. When I went to check-out, the same grumpy man said to me in the most rude tone and face: "So there were 4 adults in the room?" I said "What? No. He just met us here, we're leaving to go to breakfast." Him, matter-of-factly: "So 4 people stayed in the room last night." Me: "Noo... He just pulled up, didn't you see his car drive in 10 minutes ago?" Him: "So how many adults in the room last night?" Me, aggravated at his insistence on being rude: "There were 3 of us in the room, just like I put on all the paperwork. He is meeting us here are we are leaving for breakfast in Portland. He did-not-stay-here last night." He just stands there with a rude scowl on his face, then looks down at his desk, waves towards the door, shoeing me away. RUDE!

"worst experience ever"
My business made arrangements with the manager to pay for my room after I had booked it online. The manager agreed to credit my account and then give the same rate for two extra days to my employer. Instead they double billed for the room charging me and the employer siting that the room was more expensive because I requested nonsmoking. What a scam. […] I will never darken the doorway of an econolodge again. Pročitajte višeAutentične Expedia recenzije gostiju
I had called ahead to let them know that I would be arriving around midnight for a late check in, and was assured that all I had to do was ring the night bell. After rining the bell I was greeted by a grumpy individual who barely spoke English and did not make me feel like a welcome guest. He gave me my key and then walked away without another word. […] Also, the parking lot didn't have enough spaces to accomodate everyone so I ended up parking on the main street. The room was clean and comfortable, but the "greeting" I received was enough to make me not want to stay there again. Pročitajte višeAutentične Hotels.com recenzije gostiju
"Clean and comfy!"
I visit my brother in Portland frequently and always stay at this motel. The staff is friendly, the beds are comfy, the rooms are clean and there's a small swimming pool and hot tub! What could be better? I'm sure I'll be back many times in the future...Autentične Hotels.com recenzije gostiju
This Hotel was nothing special. The carpets looked dirty. There was a used Kleenex under my bed. There "so called" continental breakfast was ONLY coffee, juice, English muffins, and Otis Spunk chocolate chip muffins-that's it. When my son went to get me coffee the owner started yelling at him, "where you come from"? And he had to give his room number. […] Like really-who would want to steel a muffin and a coffee from there. There was no coffee maker in the room or no hair dryer. There was very little parking so if you don't get there in time, you have to park out in the road somewhere. Pročitajte višeAutentične Expedia recenzije gostiju

"Good overall experience at this motel"
Good location, economical, and well maintained. I noticed that the room temperature was just right; I didn't have to adjust anything. The water for the shower came on strong and hot. There were plenty of nice layers on the bed, clean and not skimpy like some other motels. I felt safe as a single woman guest. I took advantage of the bagels and coffee […] every morning and was greeted by a pleasant desk attendent. I would highly recommend this Econo Lodge.

"Never Again"
Staying from Oct 6 - Oct 8. After a long day drive and activities (totaling 18 hours), we checked in at around 11:00pm. The attendant (possibly the owner) dressed in his pajamas came out to greet and handed me the room key. We have reserved a 2 Queen Suite, the room was dark even with all the lights on. The general condition was old, carpet was old, […] decor was old, beds were old, everything just seems old. There were two TVs, one by the sitting room, another by the sleeping area. There was a microwave and a small fridge. No utensils or any other kitchen wares. After settling in, we called the reception (around 11:25pm) and trying to get an extra blanket and pillow. The same attendant picked-up the call after a few rings and he simply said, we are closed, come to the reception tomorrow morning for the blanket and pillows. I know this is Econo Lodge, but still, I want to sleep now, not tomorrow morning. When I went to pick-up the blanket in the morning, the same attendant (this is why I think he is the owner) ask me to go into their supplies room (behind the reception desk) to pick up the blanket and pillow. He can't even bring it out to the reception desk. At the same time, he kept on asking me whether we needed our room clean. They don't even want to clean up the room!! Another problem is that their doors are too heavy and their walls are too thin. Whenever someone walk in/out of their room, the door will just slam shut and the whole building shake.

"surprising extras"
This hotel is located on a busy street with many car lots, shops and other small motels. I was pleasantly surprised to be placed in a suite, which included a jacuzzi.

Very spacious room in a well-maintained facility. We had a king room and enjoyed the space and layout. There is a partial wall separating the table and "kitchenette" area. The fridge and microwave would be adequate for a quick meal although there are several good restaurants nearby. The indoor pool and hot tub were great too. The continental breakfast […] is typical quality for budget motels and the towels were thin. But overall a great value for the Milwaukie area and the place was quiet and very clean.

A call center in Lewiston owned by Xerox is planning to lay off nearly 200 people this summer, less than a year after expanding by about that many people.
The former Affiliated Computer Services call center will lay off 121 people July 18 and another 60 workers by July 31, according to the Sun Journal. Affected employees were notified Friday. The layoffs affect workers handling calls directed to Allstate or Capitol One; a company spokesman said it wasn't economically feasible to retain those jobs.
Xerox in 2009 acquired ACS in a transaction worth $6.4 billion. Last August, the company announced an expansion of its Lewiston center, hiring 200 call center agents and supervisors. Xerox spokesman Kevin Lightfoot said infrastructure changes beginning in January affected the center's operations. Last August, the company had 417 employees before hiring another 200.

Is it the thrill of the "power drill?" The artistic satisfaction of designing colorful patterns? Either way, our child testers spent hours exploring this take-along mosaic toy! And this kids' art set is an outstanding travel toy, because the pegboard folds into a carry case that neatly holds all the pieces. Includes 60 colorful bolts, toy power drill, 3 interchangeable bits, and 13 mosaic patterns. Requires 3 "AA" batteries (sold separately). For ages 3 and up. See Product Details

My 2.5 yr old loves it
By Wendy
from Claremont, CA
About Me First Time Parent
Comments about Educational Insights Design & Drill Take-Along Toolkit Travel Toy:
My 2.5 year old son loves it. It keeps him busy while I make dinner. The only thing I help him with is switching the drill to reverse when he wants to remove the bolts. The storage of the pieces within toy is a bit tight but it works. This toy will grow with my son as he can learn to do color patterns that come with the drill set.
Battery compartment is a PAIN to open.
By Parbqt in SC

About Me Parent of Two or More Children
The portableness of this product is great! We only give a few bolts at any one time to keep from losing them all. Great product overall, however, the battery compartment was a ROYAL pain to open. Being that the screws are way down deep in a tiny hole you will need an extra small screwdriver with a Phillips head and a strong hand to turn it with. These screws were so tightly screwed in that it caused painful blisters on my hand just to insert batteries???? WHY so tight?

Great for the little
By Jackie with 2 Boyz!
from Mesa, AZ
We bought this for our 2 yr old son who loves helping fix things! He enjoys using tools. This is a way for him to have his very own tool. He spends a good deal of time playing with it on his own. This toy is very easy for him to use and it does challenge him by giving him different bits to change out and when he gets a bit older he can create the designs they include. I got this because he does not travel well on a plane and I am hoping to take it with us to use. However I am very concerned with how loud the screwdriver is. I am trying to weight if the other passengers want to hear him fuss and cry or the buzzing noise of this toy! I know other parents have mention there are lots of pieces however we only use between 5 and 10 screws at a time. Everything fits very nicely in the carrying case.
Design Drill, hard battery change
By Busy Mom

Fun toy, but battery compartment a pain to open. Needs very small and thin screwdriver, small screws could easily be lost.
Could take it or leave it
By Cody's mom
from Athens, GA
My special needs son has a very difficult time with this toy. He would rather just put the screws in with his fingers than use the drill. His therapist have tried to get him to use the drill, but he doesn't like the loud noise it makes. This toy wouldn't be good for travel because it has too many pieces.

SOURCE West Penn Multi-List, Inc.
PITTSBURGH, March 5, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- It might not be time to plant the garden just yet, but it is time for Southwestern Pennsylvanians to prepare their homes for sale. According to the February residential real estate report from the West Penn Multi-List, Inc., the Southwestern Pennsylvania market strengthened for those selling their homes.
"It's a spring for selling in our region. Compared to last year at this time, we now are seeing fewer homes listed for sale, coupled with a significant increase in the number of homes being sold, which is depleting our housing inventory faster than it's being replenished," said George Hackett, current president of the West Penn Multi-List, Inc. and president of Coldwell Banker Real Estate Services, Pittsburgh. "This is helping homes sell more quickly and for a higher average price than they did last year at this time."
A comparison of February 2012 to February 2013 data for the 13-county region the West Penn Multi-List serves shows new listings decreased 6.96 percent (2,746 homes versus 2,555), and residential homes placed under agreement increased 18.23 percent (2,633 homes versus 3,113). For the same time period, average home sale price increased 6.08 percent ($140,861 to $149,424), and average days on market decreased 10.62 percent (113 versus 101 days).
"People are taking advantage of the continued low interest rates and entering the housing market," Hackett said. "We hope to see more sellers following suit in the coming months.
