Infusion Reactions: Severe infusion reactions occurred with the administration of ERBITUX in approximately 3% of patients, rarely with fatal outcome (<1 in 1000). Approximately 90% of severe infusion reactions were associated with the first infusion of ERBITUX. Severe infusion reactions are characterized by rapid onset of airway obstruction (bronchospasm, stridor, hoarseness), urticaria, and hypotension (see WARNINGS and ADVERSE REACTIONS). Severe infusion reactions require immediate interruption of the ERBITUX infusion and permanent discontinuation from further treatment. (See WARNINGS: Infusion Reactions and DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION: Dose Modifications.)
Severe infusion reactions occurred with the administration of ERBITUX in approximately 3% (20/774) of patients, rarely with fatal outcome (<1 in 1000). Approximately 90% of severe infusion reactions were associated with the first infusion of ERBITUX despite the use of prophylactic antihistamines. These reactions were characterized by the rapid onset of airway obstruction (bronchospasm, stridor, hoarseness), urticaria, and/or hypotension. Caution must be exercised with every ERBITUX infusion, as there were patients who experienced their first severe infusion reaction during later infusions.
Severe infusion reactions require the immediate interruption of ERBITUX therapy and permanent discontinuation from further treatment. Appropriate medical therapy including epinephrine, corticosteroids, intravenous antihistamines, bronchodilators, and oxygen should be available for use in the treatment of such reactions. Patients should be carefully observed until the complete resolution of all signs and symptoms.
In clinical trials, mild to moderate infusion reactions were managed by slowing the infusion rate of ERBITUX and by continued use of antihistamine medications (eg, diphenhydramine) in subsequent doses (see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION: Dose Modifications).
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) was reported in 3 of 774 (<0.5%) patients with advanced colorectal cancer receiving ERBITUX. Interstitial pneumonitis with non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema resulting in death was reported in one case. Two patients had pre-existing fibrotic lung disease and experienced an acute exacerbation of their disease while receiving ERBITUX in combination with irinotecan. In the clinical investigational program, an additional case of interstitial pneumonitis was reported in a patient with head and neck cancer treated with ERBITUX and cisplatin. The onset of symptoms occurred between the fourth and eleventh doses of treatment in all reported cases.
In the event of acute onset or worsening pulmonary symptoms, ERBITUX therapy should be interrupted and a prompt investigation of these symptoms should occur. If ILD is confirmed, ERBITUX should be discontinued and the patient should be treated appropriately.
In cynomolgus monkeys, ERBITUX, when administered at doses of approximately 0.4 to 4 times the weekly human exposure (based on total body surface area), resulted in dermatologic findings, including inflammation at the injection site and desquamation of the external integument. At the highest dose level, the epithelial mucosa of the nasal passage, esophagus, and tongue were similarly affected, and degenerative changes in the renal tubular epithelium occurred. Deaths due to sepsis were observed in 50% (5/10) of the animals at the highest dose level beginning after approximately 13 weeks of treatment.
In clinical studies of ERBITUX, dermatologic toxicities, including acneform rash, skin drying and fissuring, and inflammatory and infectious sequelae (eg, blepharitis, cheilitis, cellulitis, cyst) were reported. In patients with advanced colorectal cancer, acneform rash was reported in 89% (686/774) of all treated patients, and was severe (Grade 3 or 4) in 11% (84/774) of these patients. Subsequent to the development of severe dermatologic toxicities, complications including S. aureus sepsis and abscesses requiring incision and drainage were reported.
Patients developing dermatologic toxicities while receiving ERBITUX should be monitored for the development of inflammatory or infectious sequelae, and appropriate treatment of these symptoms initiated. Dose modifications of any future ERBITUX infusions should be instituted in case of severe acneform rash (see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION, Table 4). Treatment with topical and/or oral antibiotics should be considered; topical corticosteroids are not recommended.
ERBITUX therapy should be used with caution in patients with known hypersensitivity to Cetuximab, murine proteins, or any component of this product.
It is recommended that patients wear sunscreen and hats and limit sun exposure while receiving ERBITUX as sunlight can exacerbate any skin reactions that may occur.
Patients enrolled in the clinical studies were required to have immunohistochemical evidence of positive EGFR expression using the DakoCytomation EGFR pharmDx™ test kit. Assessment for EGFR expression should be performed by laboratories with demonstrated proficiency in the specific technology being utilized. Improper assay performance, including use of suboptimally fixed tissue, failure to utilize specified reagents, deviation from specific assay instructions, and failure to include appropriate controls for assay validation, can lead to unreliable results. Refer to the DakoCytomation test kit package insert for full instructions on assay performance. (See CLINICAL STUDIES: EGFR Expression and Response.)
A drug interaction study was performed in which ERBITUX was administered in combination with irinotecan. There was no evidence of any pharmacokinetic interactions between ERBITUX and irinotecan.
As with all therapeutic proteins, there is potential for immunogenicity. Potential immunogenic responses to ERBITUX were assessed using either a double antigen radiometric assay or an enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay. Due to limitations in assay performance and sampling timing, the incidence of antibody development in patients receiving ERBITUX has not been adequately determined. The incidence of antibodies to ERBITUX was measured by collecting and analyzing serum pre-study, prior to selected infusions and during treatment follow-up. Patients were considered evaluable if they had a negative pre-treatment sample and a post-treatment sample. Non-neutralizing anti-ERBITUX antibodies were detected in 5% (28 of 530) of evaluable patients. In patients positive for anti-ERBITUX antibody, the median time to onset was 44 days (range 8-281 days). Although the number of sero-positive patients is limited, there does not appear to be any relationship between the appearance of antibodies to ERBITUX and the safety or
antitumor activity of the molecule.
The observed incidence of anti-ERBITUX antibody responses may be influenced by the low sensitivity of available assays, inadequate to reliably detect lower antibody titers. Other factors which might influence the incidence of anti-ERBITUX antibody response include sample handling, timing of sample collection, concomitant medications, and underlying disease. For these reasons, comparison of the incidence of antibodies to ERBITUX with the incidence of antibodies to other products may be misleading.
Long-term animal studies have not been performed to test ERBITUX for carcinogenic potential. No mutagenic or clastogenic potential of ERBITUX was observed in the Salmonella-Escherichia coli (Ames) assay or in the in vivo rat micronucleus test. A 39-week toxicity study in cynomolgus monkeys receiving 0.4 to 4 times the human dose of ERBITUX (based on total body surface area) revealed a tendency for impairment of menstrual cycling in treated female monkeys, including increased incidences of irregularity or absence of cycles, when compared to control animals, and beginning from week 25 of treatment and continuing through the 6-week recovery period. Serum testosterone levels and analysis of sperm counts, viability, and motility were not remarkably different between ERBITUX-treated and control male monkeys. It is not known if ERBITUX can impair fertility in humans.
Animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with ERBITUX. However, the EGFR has been implicated in the control of prenatal development and may be essential for normal organogenesis, proliferation, and differentiation in the developing embryo. In addition, human IgG1 is known to cross the placental barrier; therefore, ERBITUX has the potential to be transmitted from the mother to the developing fetus. It is not known whether ERBITUX can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman or whether ERBITUX can affect reproductive capacity. There are no adequate and well-controlled studies of ERBITUX in pregnant women. ERBITUX should only be given to a pregnant woman, or any woman not employing adequate contraception if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. All patients should be counseled regarding the potential risk of ERBITUX treatment to the developing fetus prior to initiation of therapy. If the patient becomes pregnant while receiving this drug, she should be apprised
of the potential hazard to the fetus and/or the potential risk for loss of the pregnancy.
It is not known whether ERBITUX (Cetuximab) is secreted in human milk. Because human IgG1 is secreted in human milk, the potential for absorption and harm to the infant after ingestion is unknown. Based on the mean half-life of ERBITUX after multiple dosing of 114 hours [range 75-188 hours] (see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY: Human Pharmacokinetics), women should be advised to discontinue nursing during treatment with ERBITUX and for 60 days following the last dose of ERBITUX.
The safety and effectiveness of ERBITUX in pediatric patients have not been established.
Of the 774 patients who received ERBITUX with irinotecan or ERBITUX monotherapy in four advanced colorectal cancer studies, 253 patients (33%) were 65 years of age or older. No overall differences in safety or efficacy were observed between these patients and younger patients.

Manose's hometown, Boudha, Nepal, stands on the ancient route from the Himalayan mountains down into the Kathmandu valley. It was there that eight-year-old Manose fell in love with bamboo flute music when one night a breeze wafted its song through his bedroom window. Manose has since made a demanding study of Indian raga music, acquiring technical mastery and an astonishing ability to improvise. He has released multiple solo CDs of bamboo flute music and as a popular contributing artist, has worked with Deva Premal and Miten, Jai Uttal, Peter Rowan, and John Densmore of the Doors.
What People are Saying About Manose
"What transpires when Manose puts his lips to a flute is supernatural...hypnotic, sacred, seductive, simple, air through bamboo."
—LAYoga magazine
"The sound of Manose's flutes, are the sound of the Gods...there is a direct link. If you're open to it, they will speak through him."
—John Densmore, The Doors
"There is probably no one who has taken the bansuri more places and given it a greater expressive range."
—India Currents magazine

'Veronica Mars': Is Michael Muhney returning as Sheriff Lamb?Add to Favorites | Veronica Mars
Rob Thomas continues to deliver on his promise to share big news about the "Veronica Mars" movie with those who backed it on Kickstarter first. In addition to to giving details about the official fan event happening independent of their Comic-Con panel, Thomas also shared a very interesting photo from the set.
The picture is pretty simple, a photo of someone's trailer door. However, the mystery comes with the name written on a piece of tape attached to the trailer, Sheriff Lamb. Marshmallows will remember that Sheriff Don Lamb (played by Michael Muhney) was killed in the third season, after being hit in the head with a baseball bat.
So, is Muhney returning? If so, how do they explain this one away? Is it something as simple as a flashback scene, or is it a case of Zombie Sheriff Lamb? A very plausible explanation could be that Lamb's little brother or sister is now Sheriff of Balboa County, where the show is set.
It won't take long to find out for sure, as Thomas promises to explain the photo Wednesday (July 17). At that time, he'll also unveil a special website just for Kickstarter backers.
Then, of course, there's Comic-Con on Friday, when all of the main players will take the stage in Hall H to greet their fans and show off the first footage from the movie. There will be a second chance to see the cast and watch pieces of the movie at a second event, organized by Thomas, Friday night at the Horton Plaza Regal Cinema in San Diego.

Tom Dixon
I was lucky enough to be at Sudeley Castle on Saturday night for the opening night of Reconstruction #3, The Artists Playground. Leading international artists and designers including Jeppe Hein, Carsten Höller, Zaha Hadid and Lawrence Weiner have been specially commissioned to take part in this major new exhibition based on the theme of play held at Sudeley Castle, from 1 June — 31 October 2008.
The piece that stood out for me though was Tom Dixon's 1000 Years of Play. The collection included five pieces of outdoor furniture, including this swing chair. A stunning piece of design influenced by industrial form and mechanism, this piece is made from 30mm flame cut steal. Absolutely magnificent.
From what I know there's no website for the event up yet but I will update when I find one. For now just check out the Tom Dixon site.

Faculty Scholarship 1994 - Present
Impact of Taking Intermediate Financial Acctg Before Finance on Student Performance in Finance
This nine-year study of 299 students majoring in accounting and finance at a regional university examines the impact of students' completing the first intermediate financial accounting course prior to taking principles of finance course on their performance in the principle course. The study also examines the relationship between gender, GPA, and student major (accounting or finance) on performance in the principles course. The results indicate that students who completed the intermediate financial accounting course before taking the principles course performed significantly better in the principles course than those who took the intermediate financial accounting course either after or concurrently with the principles course. The results further indicate no statistically significant correlation between gender and performance in the principles course. There was a statistically significantly correlation between student GPA and their major performance in the principles course.

|Derek Sherrod OT Mississippi State
|Ht: 6'6″
Wt: 312
|Prototypical size for an NFL lineman. A three-year starter at left tackle. A smart kid on and off the field. Team captain in 2010. Very solid fundamentals both in pass protection and run blocking.
|Solid across the board, but not great at anything. Athleticism is only average, and may not allow for him to play left tackle at the next level.
|Sherrod is a solid but unspectacular lineman. He doesn't have an exceptionally high ceiling, but his floor isn't very low either. At worst, he develops into a quality right tackle. At best, he's a quality left tackle. Whichever position he winds up at, he's probably a starter but probably not a Pro Bowl caliber player. I wouldn't hesitate to take him in the 2nd round, but wouldn't reach for him in the 1st.

His once-comfortable lead gone, Rory McIlroy could have flinched.
Instead, he blew everyone away.
With a stunning display down the stretch, including a pair of eagles, McIlroy put a stranglehold on his third major championship by shooting a 4-under 68 Saturday, sending him to the final round of the British Open with a daunting six-shot edge.
McIlroy came into the day up by four after back-to-back 66s, only to start slowly and find himself tied for the top spot when Rickie Fowler birdied seven of the first 12 holes.
But, in a lightning-quick turnaround, McIlroy rolled in a 35-foot birdie at the 14th and an eagle at the 16th. Fowler bogeyed both holes, a five-shot swing in just under an hour.
When McIlroy made another eagle at the 18th after what he called "my two best shots of the day," he pushed his score to 16-under 200 and seized the largest 54-hole Open lead since Tiger Woods was six strokes ahead at St. Andrews in 2000.
No one has ever blown such a big advantage on the final day of golf's oldest major championship.
"I felt Rickie close to me," McIlroy said. "I was able to turn it on when I needed to."
That burst pushed him another step closer to the career Grand Slam at the tender age of 25. Boy Wonder already captured the 2011 U.S. Open and the 2012 PGA Championship, both in eight-shot runaways.
This is looking very much like another blowout.
"Obviously, it would be nice going to Augusta next year trying to complete" a Grand Slam, McIlroy said. "I've got a lot to play for tomorrow (Sunday). It's a huge day for me."
Fowler settled for a 68 and a 206 total. Sergio Garcia shot 69 and was another shot back at 207.
"It's going to be difficult, but we'll give it a shot," Garcia said.
The R&A went with an unprecedented two-tee start and moved up the starting times, mindful of a forecast that called for a chance of severe thunderstorms. The bad weather didn't materialize while the golfers were on the course.
There were a few brief showers, but this links along the Irish Sea was no match for the world's best players – the greens softened by the smattering of rain, nary a stiff breeze to put some bite into Royal Liverpool.
"I think everyone was getting ready for a hurricane," said Keegan Bradley, whose 69 made him one of 17 players to break 70. "But it's as nice as we could imagine."
Fowler's bogey at the 14th dropped him two shots back, but it was the par-5 16th – one of the easiest holes on the course – that really sent him tumbling.
He drove it into a bunker, was fortunate just to get out, and missed a par-saving putt from 8 feet. That looked especially bad when McIlroy came along a …continued »

Mustang MonthlyHow To Paint Body
How to: Cowl Vent Repair Solutions
Vintage Mustang cowl rust is a tough problem, but there's a fix for every budget
The well-travelled vintage Mustang owner knows that the hobby's biggest four-letter curse word is r-u-s-t. Rust has ravaged its fair share of vintage Mustang body panels and one of the more problematic areas is another four-letter word that brings chills to Mustang owner's spines—the cowl.
The '65-'68 Mustang's cowl design is certainly not one of Ford's better ideas. The cowl panel is made up of an upper and lower sheetmetal stamping that is welded together and welded to the firewall as well as the windshield framework. Unlike today's coated metals and robotic painting processes, the cowls in '65-'68 Mustangs were simple sheetmetal parts spot welded together and given a coat of paint, certainly not the most rust preventative measures. Combined with the sealed design, it was a rust issue just waiting to happen.
Starting in 1969, Ford made the cowl area a bit more accessible via a removable grille panel, mainly for servicing the wiper motor and transmission, which also made it easy to keep the lower cowl clean of debris. This debris is what causes the rust issues in the '65-'68 design.
While Ford did design a drainage trough on each side of the cowl that exited the cowl sides into the fender area, the drains easily get clogged with pine needles, tree leaves, dirt, and other debris that enters the cowl vent opening. This debris traps moisture in and against the steel of the lower cowl panel. The combination of air and moisture over time initiates the metal's transformation into rust. As the rust worsens, causing penetration of the cowl panel around the cowl vent's "hat," the ensuing perforation allows future water ingress (natural rains, car wash water, etc.) into the passenger compartment, soaking the carpet and causing further rust issues with the floor pans, the Mustang's next biggest rust issue.
If you're one of the lucky few to have a garage-kept vintage Mustang or perhaps lived in a southern and dry climate, then you most likely have nothing to worry about. However, for the rest of us, cowl vent rust and leaks are a real problem. Some may say that the only proper repair is to cut out the rusty cowl portions and weld in patches or a new cowl. While we agree with this wholeheartedly, we also understand that not everyone has the budget for a complete cowl replacement. Not to mention some cowls may have minimal rust while others look like Swiss cheese. So for a cowl with just a couple of small holes, a complete replacement is a bit of overkill.
Thankfully there are several solutions that vary in price, practicality, and the amount of labor involved. Read on as we go through each solution and the pros and cons of each.
If you suspect you have a cowl leak, a bucket of water or a stream of water from a hose will help diagnose the situation and pinpoint where the leak is coming from. Just don't mistake a leaking windshield gasket for a cowl leak. It is often best to gut the underside of the dash (gauges, wiring, wiper assembly, heater box, etc.) so you can get a clear view of the complete cowl to determine where any issues lay. If your car has a nice paint finish and you don't wish to repaint the cowl and/or pull the windshield, some shops will install the cowl patches from inside the car, but the welding/sealing is more difficult in this manner and, as such, be prepared to pay a little more. Speaking of cost, we've outlined the parts cost and typical labor costs for each option below.

Join us in celebrating our Gold Rush past as we begin our second century, being the gateway to the Klondike. Spend some time in our historical city, visit the surrounding wilderness areas or take in some of our events!
A place exists in Alaska where the past lives on, where the cries of "gold in the Yukon" still echo from steep canyon walls, where the sounds of barroom pianos and boomtown crowds ring out in the night. A place where the romance and excitement of yesteryear linger around every street corner, every bend in the trail. That place is Skagway!

Stephen Harper was sworn in as Canada's 22nd Prime Minister on February 6, 2006. Among his many accomplishments, Prime Minister Harper steered Canada through the worst recession in 50 years by supporting job creation and long-term prosperity for all Canadians through pro-growth initiatives. He rebuilt Canadas military, has staunchly defended victims of crime and
restored Canadas strong voice on the world stage.
Under the direction of Prime Minister Harper, Canada is now a leader in the international fight against anti-semitism and raising awareness of the heinous crimes of the Holocaust. At the UN, Canada stands tall as a nation of principle by defending the freedom and dignity of all people.
JNF Toronto is honoured to have this extraordinary world leader as our 2013 honouree.
Proceeds from the 2013 Negev Campaign will support the building of the Stephen J. Harper Hula Valley Bird Sanctuary Visitor and Education Centre.
Jewish National Funds Hula Lake Nature and Bird Park is located along a major global migration route. Every year during spring and fall migration close to 500 million birds fly over Israel, passing over or spending winter, spring or summer in the Hula Valley.
Developed by KKL-JNF as part of the Hula Valley Rehabilitation Plan, the park has become a local and global attraction for hundreds of thousands of visitors each year from Israel and abroad and serves as a model for cooperation between conservationists, tourists and farmers.
Through your support, KKL-JNF is establishing a 4,000 square meter state-of-the-art visitor center at this unique site. The Centre is at the heart of the Hula Valleys vital wetland rehabilitation project. The centre will be a world-class scientific and educational facility, designed to blend with its environment according to principles of sustainable development. It will link Israel with scientific communities and travelers from around the world. The site is expected to attract one million local and international tourists annually, more than doubling the current number, within 10 years.
JNF Toronto will help transform a vision into a reality. The Stephen J. Harper Hula Valley Bird Sanctuary Visitor & Education Centre will benefit the environment and become a major source of income for the residents of the area. With your help, the planned visitor and education centre will undoubtedly become the pinnacle of KKL-JNFs major project, restoring the Hula wetlands to their former glory.

Replying to: Why would anyone buy this phone? by gettysburg11s
unlimited internet on a feature phone is only $10 as long as you have family messaging unlimited, or unlimited messaging....most people who buy this phone are gonna have unlimited messaging, or they wouldn't be considering it as an option. not everyone wants a smartphone. some people just want to check their email, the weather, sports scores, update their facebooks...which this phone is totally fine for. if you want a phone to browse the web, obviously you're gonna get a smartphone...but believe it or not, there's still a market for phones like this. parents buying their bratty kids a phone, people who want style and dont care about web browsing, etc.

Non pitcher edition. If you think the Reds are going to win you probably think Cueto will be the man tonight and shut down the Pirates. Who do you think will come through at the plate and be the Reds offensive MVP tonight? If you think Pirates will win and no one will be then do not worry with a vote.
I am going with Frazier tonight. Just have a feeling he will have the most opportunity to do damage and will need to come through.

Black Ink columnI am writing all of you as a response to the recent refusal of Bp. Michael Smith to grant me a license to fulfill my ordination vows in the state of North Dakota. The reason he has refused me has nothing to do with my character, nor my skills and gifts of ministry. His reason is that my life partner, whom God has given me to love and cherish is a woman and not a man.

Published in January 1937, Of Mice and Men marks a deliberate change from Steinbeck's previous work, In Dubious Battle (1936). In this new project, Steinbeck chose to work within a narrower framework: Of Mice and Men concentrates on a small number of characters as Steinbeck tells the story of migrant ranch laborers in carefully detailed settings. Only a short time before the composition of Of Mice and Men, thousands of itinerant single men had roamed the Western states following the harvests. Beginning in the second half of the nineteenth century, their numbers rapidly increased, reaching around 125, 000 by 1900. At the same time, the need for migrant workers was declining: farm-hands were being …

Dorothy J. Woodhams, 85
Published DateGILMANTON — Dorothy J. Woodhams, 85, of 134 Guinea Ridge Road Gilmanton, N.H. died at Lakes Region General Hospital in Laconia, N.H. on Saturday February 9, 2013.
Dorothy was born on December 11, 1927 in E.Holden, Maine, the daughter of Emma Louise (Pottle) and Ralph Bennoch. She lived in Parsonsfield, Maine prior to moving to Gilmanton,N.H. seven years ago. Dorothy worked at the Wrentham State School for seventeen years, then held several other jobs in Massachusetts before retiring in 1988, and moving to Parsonsfield, Maine.
Dorothy was a spiritual member of the Methodist Church in Parsonsfield, Maine. She loved her family and was a devoted Mom. She enjoyed knitting, baking (especially her delicious raisin cookies and blueberry muffins) for her family and friends. She loved caring for animals and walking her dogs, as well as gardening and blueberry picking. She is described as a caring, selfless person, who was quiet and giving and asked for nothing in return. She was also known for being a great neighbor, who always was willing to help others in their time of need. She was active with the food pantry in Parsonsfield, Maine and the local animal shelter as well as volunteering at the library.
Dorothy is survived by her husband of sixty years, John G. Woodhams of Wrentham, Massachusetts, one son, Ralph Woodhams and his wife Linda of Plainville, Massachusetts, three daughters, Linda Kempton and her husband Arthur of Gilmanton, New Hampshire, Carol Feehan and her husband Greg of Bedford, New Hampshire, and Cathy McPherson and her husband Jim of Windham, Maine.

Dorothy was predeceased by her brother Wesley Bennoch, her sister Alice Bennoch and her grandson Jeffrey Woodhams.
There will be no calling hours. A spring burial will be held at the Springbrook Cemetery in Mansfield, Massachusetts. For those who wish, the family suggests that memorial donations be made to an animal shelter or humane society of one's choice.

PATIENTS undergoing organ transplants at a hospital in the US have begun a pioneering course of treatment aimed at preventing rejection of their new organs. By reprogramming the patients' immune systems before they receive the organs, the surgeons hope to trick the patients' bodies into accepting the new organs as "self".
If the reprogramming works, donor organs would not even need to match transplant patients' tissue. The system, pioneered by David Sachs of the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) in Boston, could also mean people with new organs will be able to survive without the drugs that prevent their immune systems from attacking the transplant
Surgeons led by Benedict Cosimi at the MGH are testing Sachs's three-stage treatment regime on patients. The "AlloMune" regime, which is now being developed by BioTransplant, a company based at Charlestown, Massachusetts, has already been tested successfully in primates in previous trials.
Patients will first receive ...

Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) X3100: Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) X3100 is an integrated (onboard) graphic chip on a Mobile Intel 965GM chipset. It is the successor of GMA 950 and features a fully programmable pipeline (supports Aero Glass fully and DirectX 10 with newest drivers). The peformance of the X3100 is clearly better than the GMA 950, still demanding modern games won't run fluently.
These graphics cards are not suited for Windows 3D games. Office and Internet surfing however is possible.
» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.
Intel Core 2 Duo: This is the Core Duo and Core Solo successor with a longer pipeline and 5-20% more speed without more power consumption. As an addition to the Core Duo design there exists a fourth decoder, an amplified SSE-unit and an additional arithmetical logical unit (ALU).
The Core 2 Duo for laptops is identical to the desktop Core 2 Duo processors but the notebook-processors work with lower voltages (0.95 to 1188 Volt) and a lower Frontside bus clock (1066 vs 667 MHz). The performance of equally clocked notebooks is 20-25% lower than Desktop PCs because of the lower Frontside bus clock and the slower hard disks.
T7100: Entry level to mid-range (at the time of annoucement) dual core processor based on the Merom core.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.
12.1": This is a common display format for subnotebooks. Most netbooks have a tinier display. The advantage is, that the subnotebook can be small dimensioned and can be carried easily. Further the small display needs few energy, which improves the battery runtime and in consequence the mobility. The disadvantage is that the reading of texts is a bit exhausting for the eyes, especially with high resolutions.» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.
1.9 kg: These sub-notebooks weight less than the average of all notebooks, but represent a heavier class of weight among the sub-notebooks. 12 inch displays are normal for this class of weight.
Samsung: The Samsung Group is composed of numerous international businesses, all united under the Samsung brand in South Korea. The meaning of the Korean word Samsung is "tristar" or "three stars".

Tunis — Consultations started Monday (December 23rd) to form a slimmed-down government of independent technocrats to lead Tunisia until elections.
The new cabinet for premier-designate Mehdi Jomaa will comprise 15 competent and neutral ministers, Tunisian General Labour Union (UGTT) chief Houcine Abassi said.
According to a memo prepared by the UGTT on Saturday, the new government will focus on restoring confidence to economic actors, confronting terrorism, and supporting employment and provincial development.
Prime Minister Ali Larayedh's government is expected to tender its resignation within a fortnight.
And the new govenment must be up and running "within one month", Tunisian President Moncef Marzouki said last week.
"The new interim government will tend to security, stimulate the economy and prepare all necessary circumstances so Tunisia can hold the election as soon as possible to end a phase and lay the foundations for a new era," Marzouki said in a speech marking the third anniversary of the Tunisian revolution.
For his part, Prime Minister-designate Jomaa said that young people would have the lion's share in the new government.
A number of young, well-educated professionals have reportedly offered to work in Jomaa's new government without remuneration.
Now that the political crisis has been defused and consultations for a new government are under way, Tunisians have regained some optimism about the future.
A new survey from Sigma Conseil released on Friday confirms the positive change.
According to the poll conducted last week, more than sixty per cent of respondents were optimistic about the chances for Jomaa's new government.
"Agreeing on a name to head the government and on the independence of its members is a positive step that has restored hope to us about resolving all other outstanding controversial files," said Ali Kammoun, 41, a private company employee. "This will help stabilise the country and improve general conditions."
"I'm optimistic about the new government, which will comprise technocrats, meaning it will be working for the sake of this country not parties. We'll try to back and support it," 23-year-old finance student Imen Guediche said.
In his turn, Mohamed Ben Arbi, a construction materials trader, said, "We expect the new government's programme to focus on restoring confidence in Tunisia's economy and cutting the prices that definitely burden citizens."
"Putting an end to terrorist threats must be the first task of the new government," housewife Habiba Khiari, 33, told Magharebia.
"We just want security and stability so we can be reassured about the future of this country," she added.

The topic today is How to Stay Strong and Get What You Deserve in a Divorce. The impetus for this topic was a phone call that occurred about a week ago from a new client who was going through divorce. She called crying, very, very upset, and basically said "I just want this to be over." I've been working with her for about a month or so, and it has been a difficult time for her in trying to get this divorce. A lot of conflict, lot of back-and-forth. Just a lot of name-calling. It's become very, very difficult.
When she said "I just want this over; I'm willing to accept what he's going to give me," and if I thought it was fair, if I thought it were equitable, I would say "That's fine. I think that makes sense. Let's try to not incur any more legal expenses. Let's just get this done."
Unfortunately, in this situation, what her soon-to-be ex-spouse was offering was anything but fair. There were a tremendous amount of assets that are due to my client, and he was just unwilling to compromise. But because it's become such a heated divorce, she decided "I just want this to be over." This is what I'm hoping to prevent with her, and I'm also hoping to prevent with the listeners out there. When you're in a divorce, the one thing you want more than anything else is just for the fighting, the name-calling, the acrimony to be over. And unfortunately, what we can often do in those situations is settle for something that is less than what we deserve, just to get the divorce complete.
So here are a few ways that you can stay mentally strong. Even though you want to get the divorce, you want it to be over, you still need to be able to be strong so you can fight for what you deserve.
The first thing to keep in mind is that going into the divorce, you have to expect this to be a marathon. This is not a sprint. Divorces can take months and months and months, and you have to go into it with the mindset that this is going to last quite awhile, and it's going to be tough. That will prepare you mentally for the grueling weeks or months that it takes to get this finalized.
And maybe it finishes quickly, maybe it finishes without any sort of dispute, without any name-calling or acrimony. And if that happens, that's great. But go into it thinking that it's possible that this is going to take longer than you thought.
Second idea to keep in mind is that, almost as if it were a marathon, if you were out of shape, would you attempt to run 26.2 miles? Probably not. So you want to stay healthy here – physically and mentally healthy. You want to get enough sleep; you want to make sure that you're eating the right foods; you want to make sure that you're exercising, doing the things to keep yourself physically strong, and by doing that, you also help yourself remain mentally strong.
Another – this is a big, big, big idea here, is if you're considering settling on a particular division of assets or marital support, work with a financial planner, someone who specializes in working through a divorce, and run different "what if" scenarios.
For example, your spouse is offering X, Y, and Z. Well, how does this look, not only the day after the divorce, but how does this look 5 years from now, 10 years from now? What are the assets that you're getting, what are the assets that your spouse is getting, and model both of those so you can see, "If I settle for this, how is this going to look for me financially in a few years? Is it going to affect my retirement? Is it going to affect my ability to pay for my child's education?"
Run those numbers, because in the heat of the moment, our initial reaction is just "Let's just end this thing. Just get me whatever you want, and I want to walk away." But that's why these "what if" scenarios are really important, because you can see in black and white what is going to happen to you financially if you settle for less than what is coming to you.
The fourth idea is try not to lose yourself in the divorce. I know if you have friends who have been divorced or are going through a divorce, it can be all-consuming. Everything is about the divorce. The texts are about the divorce; talking to your friends, the topic of conversation – the divorce. If you can separate yourself somewhat from this, the more the better, because the more ingrained you are into this, the more stress it's going to create, and the more likely it is that you're just going to want to put this behind you, and that you'll settle for something less than what you deserve.
Another thing: if you get a proposal – maybe you're in mediation, and you "agree" on something, and you're just not feeling right about it – take some time. Sleep on it. Sleep on it before you make the decision. Sometimes just that gap, that separation of being in the heat of the moment will help you get clarity on the situation, and you can make a less emotional decision and more rational and more financial.
The sixth – this should be at the top of the list; it's extremely important – it's listen to your advisors. Most people may experience one, two, maybe three divorces in their lifetime. Okay, how many divorces has your family law attorney experienced? How many divorces has your financial planner experienced? Could be hundreds. Obviously not their own, but in working with their clients, they have experience. They've seen the ins and outs, they've seen what works and they've seen what doesn't work.
So they come to the table with a depth of experience and a depth of knowledge that you just won't have. So rely on them. You're paying them, so listen to what they're saying. They can help navigate you through this obviously very tumultuous time.
The seventh – this is extremely important, and it's to focus on the future. Again, we've talked about in the heat of the moment, during the divorce, you just want this thing to be over and done with so you can move on with your life. So focus on what the future is. Don't focus so much on the current pain, on the current mediation, on the battling of what it is that you're trying to get. If you focus on that, you're going to want this to be over, and you may settle for something less than what you deserve.
But if you focus on the future, if you focus on two months from now, three months from now, six months from now, you'll think and come to decisions less based on emotion and more based on what's really right for you.
So if you're in the middle of a divorce or thinking about getting a divorce, keep these ideas in mind so you can stay mentally and physically strong so you can get not more than what you deserve, but so you can get what you deserve in a divorce.

Study links phthalate to childhood obesity
HOUSTON — Obese children show greater exposure than nonobese children to di-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP), a chemical used to soften plastics in some children's toys and many household products, according to a new study, which found that the obesity risk increases according to the level of the chemical found in the bloodstream.
The study will be presented Saturday at The Endocrine Society's 94th Annual Meeting in Houston.
DEHP is a common type of phthalate, a group of industrial chemicals that are suspected endocrine disruptors, or hormone-altering agents.
In the study, children with the highest DEHP levels had nearly five times the odds of being obese compared with children who had the lowest DEHP levels, study co-author Mi Jung Park, MD, PhD, said.
"Although this study cannot prove causality between childhood obesity and phthalate exposure, it alerts the public to recognize the possible harm and make efforts to reduce this exposure, especially in children," said Park, a pediatric endocrinologist in Seoul, Korea, at Sanggye Paik Hospital and professor at Inje University College of Medicine.
Phthalates are found in some pacifiers, plastic food packages, medical equipment and building materials such as vinyl flooring, and even in nonplastic personal care products, including soap, shampoo and nail polish.
• Common chemical may disrupt children's mental development

External hard drive or TC?
Would it be better to just purchase an external hard drive, connect it to my desktop, and share it over the network or purchase a TC? I currently have an ATT 2Wire Model 2701HG-B dsl modem.
- Asked by Raymond C from El Paso
QA Apple Time Capsule
Product No Longer Available
1 Answer from the Community
If you have PCs, you'll likely be happier with an external HD, or a HD in an external enclosure. However, you'll then be missing out on the advantages of the superior, highly rated AirPort Extreme Base Station, which makes up half of the TC unit.

Zeigler Coal Company
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Zeigler Coal Company was a coal mining company based in Zeigler, Illinois. It was controlled by the Zeigler Coal Holding Company, which, in 1998, was purchased by AEI Resources. The company produced steam-grade coal, which it primarily sold to electric utilities.
Railroad Operations[edit]
The company had registered a reporting mark, ZCCX, with the AAR. At least one piece of rolling stock, originally their NW2 switcher #2-22, remains in full Zeigler Coal Company Paint.

Ten Billion Bits of Entanglement Achieved in Silicon
Scientists from Oxford University have made a significant step towards an ultrafast quantum computer by successfully generating 10 billion bits of quantum entanglement in silicon for the first time — entanglement is the key ingredient that promises to make quantum computers far more powerful than conventional computing devices.
The researchers used high magnetic fields and low temperatures to produce entanglement between the electron and the nucleus of an atom of phosphorous embedded in a highly purified silicon crystal. The electron and the nucleus behave as a tiny magnet, or 'spin', each of which can represent a bit of quantum information. Suitably controlled, these spins can interact with each other to be coaxed into an entangled state — the most basic state that cannot be mimicked by a conventional computer.
An international team from the UK, Japan, Canada and Germany, report their achievement in the journal Nature. Continue reading…

RIYADH, -- (KUNA) -- Riyadh will host on Tuesday the first meeting of the boards of the Islamic International News Agency (IINA) and the Organization of Islamic Broadcasting, to be chaired by Saudi Minister of Culture and Information Iyad Madani.
The meeting comes in line with the recommendations by the seventh session of the Islamic Conference of Information Ministers held in Jeddah, Saudi Arabic, last September, on restructuring both institutions for the sake of enhancing effectiveness in accordance with the aims set by the Organization of Islamic Conference (OIC) and their own aims.
This includes reforming their boards of directors to include some director generals of news agencies and television officials in Muslim countries.
The session urged the preparation of two studies for developing the IINA and the broadcast organization for achieving aims adopted in the work program that was approved by the third extraordinary session of the Islamic Summit, held in Makkah in December.
Head of the KUNA office in Riyadh Abdulrazzaq Al-Huzami will take part in the meeting on behalf of KUNA's Chairman and Director General Sheikh Mubarak Duaij Al-Ibrahim Al-Sabah, who is also chairman of the Federation of the Arab News Agencies (FANA).

Because of Memorial Day weekend, I kind of let this story slip through the cracks, but it's too ridiculous to not bring up now, even if it is a few days late.
Manual labor is as old as prisons themselves, but as it turns out, it might not be the most profitable use for a locked up inmate.
It's been discovered that in an unknown number of Chinese prisons across the country, inmates have been forced not only to do physical labor, but electronic work as well, acting as World of Warcraft gold farmers by night.
Prison bosses made more money forcing inmates to play games than they do forcing people to do manual labour," Liu told the Guardian. "There were 300 prisoners forced to play games. We worked 12-hour shifts in the camp. I heard them say they could earn 5,000-6,000rmb [£470-570] (~$770-935) a day. We didn't see any of the money. The computers were never turned off."
It is estimated that 80% of all gold farmers are in China and with the largest internet population in the world there are thought to be 100,000 full-time gold farmers in the country.
Gold farming has always been a problem for the game, particularly from China, but this is a whole new level of insanity. In my opinion, Blizzard hasn't done enough to combat this, as they're content with their title just making tons of money, ignoring the fact that it's 100,000 people's full time job in China to help corrupt their system.

UTSA Office of the Provost announces two Academic Affairs appointments
(Sept. 17, 2013) -- The UTSA Office of the Provost announces two new appointments within Academic Affairs: Donna Edmondson as ombudsperson and Alan Shoho as associate vice provost for academic and faculty support.
As Academic Affairs ombudsperson, Edmondson will serve as a resource to faculty, as well as Academic Affairs staff and student employees, who have questions or concerns about the academic enterprise of the university. The ombudsperson helps parties resolve issues in a neutral, informal and confidential manner, and it is anticipated that her services also will be utilized in grievance processes.
Edmondson has worked for UTSA 18 years, most recently as ombudsperson in the Office of the Vice President for Research.
In his new role as associate vice provost, Shoho will help facilitate the implementation and review of all faculty support programs. Among his current projects are a university-wide mentoring/coaching program, a faculty recognition program and programming for the anticipated Faculty Center in the John Peace Library. Also, he will support initiatives related to the Downtown Campus.
Shoho is a professor in the Department of Educational Leadership and Policy Studies. He joined the faculty in 1994 and last year participated in the Fellows Program of the American Council on Education.
Edmondson and Shoho both are past participants in the Leadership UTSA faculty and staff development program.

You are now 19 weeks pregnant which is the beginning of week 20. Week 20 is seen as the 'half way' point in a standard 40 week pregnancy. Your baby now measures about 22 cm from head to toe (or 8.8 inches) and weighs about 340 grams (or 12 ounces). Most women look obviously pregnant by now and may need to start wearingmaternity clothes. You may also find you can't 'bend over in the middle' because your bump gets in the way!
By 20 weeks, if you feel the top of your uterus (or 'fundus') while lying down, it should be around about the level of your belly button. Many women will feel their baby move by now, but if the placenta is in an 'anterior' position (or implanted at the front of your uterus closest to your belly), this may blunt the sensations and delay you feeling them until about 22 weeks or more.
By 20 weeks, your baby is legally regarded as a person. In Australia, babies born before 20 weeks gestation (or weighing less than 400 grams) are regarded as being miscarried, but babies born after 20 weeks gestation (or weighing more than 400 grams) are regarded as being premature. (Other countries can vary from this classification. For example, the World Health Organization suggests 22 weeks and 500 grams in birth weight). Babies born at 20 weeks are medically regarded as 'extremely' premature and cannot survive. Technological advances have savedpremature babies as young as 24 weeks, but their chances of survival are greatly enhanced if born after 28 weeks.
During the 20th week, your baby's nails form and their fingerprints are now visibly engraved in their fine skin. Their permanent teeth now appear behind their baby teeth deep within their gums. The bones in your baby's inner ear and their nerve endings are now developed to the point where it is possible for them to hear sounds (although their ears are not structurally complete until 24 weeks). Studies carried out on the reactions of unborn babies to sound have shown that a few babies will start responding to noise as early as 19 weeks, but by 26 weeks all babies will respond. The sounds an unborn baby can hear include their mother's heartbeat and breathing, the wind sounds from her intestines and the sound of her voice, as well as other sounds around her. It is thought that if a pregnant woman is constantly exposed to loud noises, this may have an adverse effect on her baby's hearing.

This is the only known portrait type of Walsingham, and is associated with the artist John de Critz whom he patronised extensively in the 1580s. Despite mounting debts, Walsingham repeatedly entertained Elizabeth I at his home at Barn Elms, near Putney, in the second half of the 1580s, the period from which this portrait dates. It shows Walsingham wearing a cameo of the queen who he served so faithfully and yet who failed to reward him for his loyalty and patriotism.

Weak economy leads to more boomerang kids
For more adult children, there's no place like home as they struggle to make ends meet.
According to an Ohio State University study that examined U.S. Census data, 43 percent of adults under the age of 25 moved back in with their parents during the Great Recession.
Arizona State University student Diego Monsalve is among the 43 percent. After one year in the dorms and two years sharing a house with friends, Monsalve returned home.
"Toward the end of my junior year I was really getting stressed over money," said the 22-year-old education major.
Moving back home meant a lot less stress for Monsalve, especially since he pays no bills. Plus, there are other perks, such as his mother, Nubia Glennon, making breakfast, packing lunches and even doing his laundry.
"I want to be the best mom for him," she said.
Monsalve has his own room, but sometimes Glennon's questions about where he's going at night and when he's coming home can be annoying, but Monsalve said he understands. Before moving in they set some ground rules, among them keeping his room clean and not slamming doors.
Both claim the arrangement is working, but neither knows for how long.
"We really didn't talk about how long I was going to stay here," Monsalve said. "I haven't really given it a lot of thought. I'm just focused on the day to day."

What I Wear to Work: The Hospitality Specialist Who Hangs With Sisqo
Slipping between nightlife and fashion clients, Dannia Hakki sports glam basics, global jewelry, and one seriously enviable head of hair.
Who: Dannia Hakki, 27
Cofounder and principal, MoKi Media
What she does: With more than 25 DC-based clients in the nightlife, restaurant, hotel, fashion, charity, beauty, and design industries, MoKi Media has a lot on its plate. I started the Georgetown-based PR agency with my business partner, Sherry Moeller, in 2009, and we are constantly finding clever ways to create buzz surrounding the businesses we work with. I specialize in the nightlife, beauty, and fashion divisions of the agency. On any given night, I'll be sliding through the crowds at Lost Society, One Lounge, Eden, Public Bar, and other go-to Washington hotspots. And when I'm not at my desk frantically hitting my keyboard to send out that VIP invite, pitch, or opening press release, I'm standing next to my talented photographer, Dave Phillipich, at one of my venues making sure he gets our money shot.
Describe your work style: With clients in the hospitality and fashion industries, I'm able to dress a bit more risqué than the average Washington public relations specialist. My outfits need to take me from a day at the office to a night on the town, so I stick with business-slinky ensembles that stand out in a room. I'm not too big on funky jewelry, and I like to keep it simple. Anyone who knows me would say my hair is my favorite accessory.
At the Office
Theory top, BDG jeans from Urban Outfitters, Dolce & Gabanna shoes, vintage Prada bag, and Adia Kibur bracelets.
First Meeting with a New Client
BCBG blazer, Theory skirt, Reed Krakoff shoes, and vintage YSL bag.

Yes. My phone is not rooted of modified in any way
And is this without the gpu libs ?
Same i prefer it!
Next Browser is better than Chrome IMO. Smoother and works in current form.
Noticed that too
I find next browser uses a lot of battery
I think the latest patch has got it working again. They broke it on Medfield at least a few versions ago, the only two ways it would work was to not let it update or if you already had to reinstall the Xolo update.zip which would have gone back to the working version. The other way was to root and install option (38) Borqs W32T GPU lib's from the AIO tool in which case updates didn't break it again.
Forgive my ignorance (and I've tried using the 'search' facility) but what is the nature of the issue with Chrome working/not working? I've been using the one that came with Xolo ICS for months and not noticed any problems.
