Many Hoosiers are putting off crucial medical tests because health care costs continue to go up.
There is a new Indianapolis group created by doctors to help patients save a lot of money and get quality care.
It's called Objective Diagnostics or ODx.
It's a newly formed network of physicians across the state that was founded by Dr. Robert Gregori
"First and foremost we offer quality testing. It's vital medical testing such as EMG's, MRI's, & CT scans and it's offered to patients for 40 to 60 percent less than typical," said Dr. Gregori.
New patient Amy Magan has been living with carpal tunnel syndrome for eight years.
"I knew I had carpel tunnel syndrome. I could tell just by the symptoms," said Amy Magan. "I was having, but I didn't know how bad it was. Turns out, it was bad, virtually no nerve response in my hand. I mean I would be carrying a plate, or I would be sitting and talking to someone, and all of a sudden it would just fall."
One of the reasons she never got tested for carpal tunnel was the cost.
"We hadn't met our deductible yet, so anything that I was going to spend on this testing was going to be out of my pocket," said Magan. "So to be able to get this testing for $1,000 versus $2,000 was significant."
Given the less expensive deal and her worsening condition, she got tested. She found it helpful that they tell you how much the testing will cost with no insurance company to deal with and no deductibles.
"It kind of makes you feel in control a little bit," said Magan. "You don't feel like someone's going to try to pull a fast one on you. You know up front. The testing was easy. After that, the doctor recommended where to have the surgery."
Magan underwent an outpatient procedure. She was home that afternoon, and kept a wrap on her hands for 5 days. In 10 days, her stitches were out and Amy was back to normal.
"It is really amazing the difference," said Magan. "I mean I've almost have forgotten how it felt to not feel."

"The company specializes in twists on the classics, instilled with equal measures of buffoonery and technical aptitude." – The New York Times
Performer Preview
Les Trockaderos de Monte Carlo
Founded in 1974 for the purpose of presenting a playful, entertaining view of traditional, classical ballet in parody form, Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo quickly garnered major attention. The original concept of Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo has not changed. It is a company of professional male dancers performing the full range of the ballet and modern dance repertoire, including classical and original works in faithful renditions of the manners and conceits of those dance styles.
Read more!
Read more!
The original concept of Les Ballets Trockadero De Monte Carlo has not changed. The comedy is achieved by incorporating and exaggerating the foibles, accidents and underlying incongruities of serious dance. The fact that men dance all the parts-heavy bodies delicately balancing on toes as swans, sylphs, water sprites, romantic princesses, or angst-ridden Victorian ladies-enhances, rather than mocks the spirit of dance as an art form.
The Company has appeared in over 30 countries and over 500 cities worldwide since its founding.

More than just adding oil (加油)
Photo originally found on Mop here.
"Add fuel?" "Let's go?" "Olé! Olé! Olé?" "Come on?" One of the quirkier news stories that has come out of the Beijing Olympics is how to translate the ubiquitous Chinese cheer 加油 (jiāyóu). The New York Times Rings blog wrote about the various contexts that 加油 has been used–ranging from the current usage during the Olympics to the Wenchuan earthquake–and sparking a vibrant comment thread where no one seemed to be able to agree. Even the Chinese news agency Xinhua got into the act, covering the foreign media's struggles to translate the phrase properly. And an intrepid blogger took it further–why bother stopping at English when you can say 加油 in languages from Luxembourgish to Prussian?
China Daily also examined how China might need new cheers and compared China's cheering to the organized South Korean effort. Is the simple 加油 really that boring? (Aug. 23 Update) The Australian certainly thinks so.
In case you haven't gotten the hang of it yet, here's a video on how to cheer the Chinese way from the hilariously straight-faced Two Chinese Characters.
How would you translate 加油? I've always had a fondness for "good luck" myself.
On a related note, the Wall Street Journal writes about a government program called Heart-to-Heart that assigned local Beijing schools to cheer for visiting countries. While Huajiadi Experimental Primary School was thrilled to be picked as one of the cheerleading schools, they were understandably less thrilled when they were assigned to cheer for a traditional archenemy: Japan. Nonetheless, in the spirit of international amity, the school made the best of it. One terrific line at the end of the article makes the point that children might "[associate] Japan with cartoons, not history."
Ironically, the program was first begun by the Japanese during the 1998 Winter Olympics in Nagano.
One has to wonder how the school assigned to France, China's newest international nemesis, felt.

Today's Deadly Destination is from Leigh Evans's Hedi Peacock on The Fairy Pond in Creemore from THE THING ABOUT WERES, Mystwalker #2 (published on July 30, 2013 by St. Martin's Press). Want to win the Mystwalker series set? Enter via the widget below.
Leigh Evans's Hedi Peacock on The Fairy Pond in Creemore from THE THING ABOUT WERES
Dear Merry,
I've got words I want to say but since you're not hanging with me anymore, I'm SOL if I want to say them in person. Also, let us not forget that I'm surrounded by a bunch of wolves. They get skittish when their Alpha-by-Proxy starts muttering to herself.
Bunch of dumbasses.
Anyhow, last night I decided that I was going to write you a letter. Even if you're never going to receive it. Because I just had to…you know…put it into ink.
Things have changed here. I know that's not surprising. If there is one simple truth about life, it is this—the world moves on. Spring gives winter a nudge and then it's all daffodils and cherry blossoms. Next thing you know, summer strolls in. It stays long enough to bake the ground and wilt the flowers but it slips away one morning too.
Falls moves in and life moves on.
I know this.
But, I'm the girl whose hasty—and by the way really freakin' painful—decision has left me here. Alone in Creemore, Ontario. Sitting on a boulder by the dead end of the pond. And I feel the same. Things have changed but I'm not sure I have.
Hey, remember what my pirate rock looks like? Here's a picture.
Fun times, Merry. Possibly the Gates of Merenwyn thing wasn't one of my brighter moves:-)
The view's better from the other side. Hang on, I'll take another picture. How's that?
The ducklings are down at the other end. They've grown. I expect they'll fly south soon. And the lily pads…well, they're still trying to take over. I need to get some of the Weres on that but they're hellishly girlie around water unless they've had a scotch or two.
Oh, hell. I'm muddling this, aren't I? Here it is…
I miss you.
Got to go now. I hear Harry's truck coming up the drive. He usually shows up around dinner with Biggs in tow. Cordelia has instigated what she calls 'think tank sessions' but all those amount to is a bit of paper shuffling and throat clearing before we end up gossiping.
(The boys would swear on a stack of fox pelts that they never gossip but they're far worse than Cordelia. The things they have to say about what happens at Pederman's bar after the mortals leave…you'd have a good laugh, Merry.)
Well, the mosquitoes are zipping around my head, looking for a teaspoon or two of my Fae blood. They're hungry little bastards tonight. I think it's time to head back up to the trailer.
You take care,
Leigh Evans
Born in Montreal, Quebec, Leigh now lives in Toronto with her husband. She's raised two kids, mothered three dogs, and herded a few cats. Other than that, her life was fairly routine until she hit the age of 50. Some women get tattoos. Leigh decided to write a book. A little tardy, but then again, her Mum always said she was a late bloomer.
Set of first two Mystwalker books: THE TROUBLE WITH FATE and THE THING ABOUT WERES
Available on July 30, 2013 by St. Martin's Press
In the never-ending saga that is my love-hate relationship with Robson Trowbridge, I, half-Were Hedi Peacock, have had a change of heart. Ever since I shoved Trowbridge through the Gates of Merenwyn, I've been the leader of the pack—hard to believe, right? The thing is: I'm half-Fae. So even though my Were side is ready to heed the call of the wild, the other part of me is desperate to take flight. And much as it pains me to admit it, life without Trowbridge is really starting to were me down…
To make matters worse, the wolves of Creemore want my blood—and the North American Council of Weres wants me dead. So I'm just counting the days until Trowbridge returns from the other realm…and comes to my brave rescue…and becomes my alpha mate. Wishful thinking? Of course it is. But given all the mess I've been through already, what's the harm in doing a little bit of daisy-plucking? Besides, Trowbridge owes me bigtime. A girl can dream.

The Calgary Flames appear to be playing the best hockey of their season as they out-muscled the Nashville Predators in a 3-1 win at the Scotiabank Saddledome on Monday night. Led by power-play goals by Jarome Iginla and Brendan Morrison and an even strength goal by Curtis Glencross, the Flames dominated the Predators as they cruised to their third win in a row over the top teams in the Western Conference. The Predators lone goal came from David Legwand.
Miikka Kiprusoff probably wishes that he played the Preds every night as he won in an overtime shutout in their first meeting this year and stopped 23 of 24 Nashville shots on Monday. Pekka Rinne allowed three goals on 27 Flames shots and all three tallies were due to rebounds or deflections that left him with no chance to stop the secondary shots.
The game started with both teams wanting to establish the neutral zone early and the Flames did a much more effective job slowing the Predator attack and beating them on the boards.
Calgary got on the board first at 10:14 on a freak play that was payback from the hockey gods for the Pekka-less stick save in Edmonton on Sunday. Glencross shot the puck and it bounced up off Shea Weber's shin guard and floated over Rinne into the crease where even a diving Chris Meuller couldn't stop it.
Both teams had a pair of penalties that resulted in five of the Predators' six shots on goal in the period and four of the eight for the Flames.
The second period produced more penalties on both side with the Preds picking up three and the Flames having two. The Predators got on the board with their only goal at 10:32 when Kiprusoff tried to dump the puck into the right corner. Joel Ward grabbed it and sent it to Colin Wilson who shot it at the net and Legwand finished it off to tie the game at 1-1.
After a high-sticking penalty on Ward, the Flames got a power-play goal at 13:01 to take the lead, 2-1. Matt Stajan picked up his second assist of the evening when he shot at the net and Rinne did not control the puck and it went to Iginla who had a shot at the empty side of the net.
The Flames were in full control, outshooting the Preds 14-7 in the second. The Predators continued to be out-worked and struggled moving the puck in the neutral zone.
The Predators showed more life in the third than they had earlier in the game. Jerred Smithson was called for hooking to give the Flames their sixth man-advantage of the evening and Morrison made the most of it by putting the Flames ahead 3-1 at 14:18 of the final stanza. While the Preds out shot the Flames in the final period, 11-5, it was too little too late.
Calgary potentially could jump from 14th to 11th with the win, depending on how games on the West coast ended. The Predators remain in fourth place with 60 points.
The Preds are 3-2 on the current road trip and looked like they were in need of some post All-Star game home cooking when they will play 21 of 32 games at the Bridgestone Arena.
After the game, the Predators left for Vancouver, where they will face the Canucks on Wednesday before breaking for the All-Star weekend.

Best Songs of All Time « see full list
Free Bird - Lynyrd Skynyrd
Makes me cry. A deep, emotional start sung by the greatest ever american singer, the a insane solo. The popular rock song, and with good reason. The list should be:
1: This
2: 2112 (Rush)
3: Babe, I'm gonna leave you (Led Zep)
4: Halleluja (Jeff Buckely)
5: Forgotten Sons (Marrilion)
And I'm 12... and I love this stuff.
1: This
2: 2112 (Rush)
3: Babe, I'm gonna leave you (Led Zep)
4: Halleluja (Jeff Buckely)
5: Forgotten Sons (Marrilion)
And I'm 12... and I love this stuff.
Let's just face it, Freebird is great. An ode to Duane Allman, it doesn't matter what concert you go to someone wants to hear it. The layers of guitars, the rising and falling of intensity like a bird flying, and one of the greatest guitar solos ever. How this misses the list is beyond me.
I play the piano and when I play in front on my family, my dad always says, Free Bird! PLAY FREE BIRD! And every one laughs. Now this isn't my favorite song, it's just a nice song. My dad took me to see lynyrd skynyrd and yeah, they were a pretty good band in stage.
In all honesty "Free bird" is a Master Piece that greatly desrves #1. It a song that's stood time since 73. Not to mention its entire history as a song itself. This song wasen't randomly thought up. Nor was it a single persons dedication. But it was made, overtime. By a band that was also a Family. It was made with love, sorrow, longing, hope, and the simple thrill of life. There is no better song in the world then this.
Some of the best Guitar ever to have been played. Skynyrd werent an arrogant band, they were down to earth, southern working class people who played 'for the street people.
im relavtively happy that its 9.. but its not good enough.
im relavtively happy that its 9.. but its not good enough.
The first five minutes of this song are an easy-going and epic ballad, then it becomes a little heavier revealing the best solo in rock history. Who can play a 5 minute studio solo that doesn't become repetitive or boring?
A slow song that just gets in your head and messes with your mind.
Allen Collins's then-girlfriend, Kathy, whom he later married, asked him, "If I leave here tomorrow would you still remember me? " Collins jotted the question down and it eventually became the opening line of "Free Bird".
Allen Collins's then-girlfriend, Kathy, whom he later married, asked him, "If I leave here tomorrow would you still remember me? " Collins jotted the question down and it eventually became the opening line of "Free Bird".
Should be in the top 10, its one of the greatest songs of all time! One of the very few songs that is almost 10 minutes long and you can listen to the whole thing. It's a disgrace to the memory of Ronnie Van Zant that this isn't in the top 10.
Kind of strange on how they decided to write it. I saw something on YouTube and they were sitting in a boat watching birds, and one of them said, "well.. Birds are free, you know? Maybe we should write something based on that. "
This is definitely the greatest song ever, it has amazing lyrics, amazing guitar solo, and like someone said before me, people will be hollering "free bird" for a long time. this ABSOLUTELY should be Number 1.
Could listen to this song for hours on end and never get bored of it. The guitar solo are the end is fantastic and actually gives me hop in the music world. A song that hasn't been messed around with. True genius.
God, damn those schoolboys who think that the androgynous creature singing songs at the level of Britney Spears is better than the band that is considered the codifier of Southern Rock. Save our souls.
Tough choice with so many good songs in this list but this song is so classic it's hard to find anyone who doesn't like it... Especially the live version! "Play it pretty for Atlanta" (One More From the Road album)
greatest song ever created. you can feel the energy building up then they hit you with a 5-minute solo. you just can not beat this song it is perfect. this is by far the best song i've ever heard!!!!!
Best song by the best band! Most people that deny Free Bord as their favorite Skynyrd song are usually lying to make it look like they don't just like the songs everyone else likes. I listen to lots of Skynyrd songs, and Free Bird is still my favorite song of all time.
Absolutely epic! This has to be in the top 10, just listen to the guitar solos, they're class! The song has a lot of meaning to it and the lyrics are absolutely birlliant! Playing this song at my funeral no matter what! If this isn't number one then I don't know what will be.
This is the greatest guitar songs in the history of guitar songs.The solo is not only phenominal but also sounds so dammn good. This should so definately be in the top of the list
Why is this song not #1? Also, don't forget "Gimme Three Steps", or "I Know A Little" There should be more Skynyrd on this list. Great band, great guitars and a great experience.
Ain't heard a better song than this! So soothing and calm! The southern rock's best ever song! Its solo is like wow! Song literally transforms to to a bird. Love it!
It has one of the the longest and greatest guitar solos in the history of music. And the slow flow of the vocals is the perfect blend for an awesome song.
Epic song sad to see this song being so low on the list, the big question here as well,.. X Japan who? Are they the online who build this site laugh out loud,
One of the greatest guitar songs ever - great vocal melodies to start until you are drawn in to that now famous, funky, layered outro. It is just epic!
I feel like I'm on some sort of crazy journey when I listen to this song. It blows me away. Great lyrics from start to finish and nice guitars as well.
Free bird is the best song ever thought of by anyone. I don't know 2 of the top 10 songs and metalica's best song is master of puppets. FREE BIRD!
One of the most amazing songs ever made. I love it... the way the guitar solo fits with the voice of the singer... it deserves higher then 10th

Power cut on campus causes disruption
A power cut in Alcuin has caused disruption to the University of York's on-line services.
Shortly after 9am, the university website, email, YUSU website, Evision, the VLE and any other systems which require a log-in went down due to the power cut. Service was resumed around midday.
The university website, email and other services are still unavailable. The power cut also resulted in some lectures being cancelled and for a few hours there was no internet service on campus.
A spokesperson for the university: "Power has now been restored at the University of York following a short power cut lasting approximately 40 minutes which affected a number of buildings on Campus North.
"This area lost power due to a fault on a cable, which affected a sub station. Engineers have by-passed this and have re-established power. They are on site investigating the cause with the aim of restoring normal operations between 12.30 to 2.30pm today," they added.
During the outage in the morning, the University of York IT Services tweeted: "Power cut in Alcuin has resulted in the loss of a large number of IT Services including web, some filestore, SITS and Evision."
They added: "Services affected inc website, VLE, systems needing sign-in. We're continuing to work on resolution."
The University of York Twitter posted: "Power outage will hopefully be resolved in next 2 to 4 hours. Buildings affected HYMS, Seebohm Rowntree, ARC, Nat Science Learning, Alcuin."
Their update later in the day informed students that power had been re-instated in most places: "Power back on to most affected areas now, with just a few isolated areas where we hope to have power back by 5pm."

Now that Google Maps for iOS is out after a brief 3-month hiatus, millions have downloaded it with anticipation. But is it better than the built-in Apple Maps app that every iPhone 5 and now all iOS 6 devices come paired with? And if so, how?
You might think "absolutely, without a doubt", but you could be wrong. There are a number of features that make Apple Maps more compelling than Google Maps, at least when it comes to comparing the two on the iPhone. So let's take a look.
General Maps
When it comes to mapping information, there are three main categories that people are interested in today: basic street layout, traffic details, and speed. In other words, the map has to be easy to read, digest, and understand; it has to have plenty of traffic information so that the user can decide for themselves whether a trip is worthwhile and, if so, what the best route is to take if they don't need or want directions; and it has to do all of that quickly over any sort of data network.
Street Layout
Thankfully, the streets appear on both Apple Maps and Google Maps about the same. Google Maps is far more traditional in terms of street layout. It looks almost like it would on a paper map (for those of you who remember what those look like). In many ways this makes it easier to read and understand, assuming you've actually used a real map before.
Apple Maps uses a more emboldened, colorful design. Major streets aren't shown specifically like on Google Maps; instead only freeways are highlighted. Major landmarks appear highly stylized, such as hospitals or airports, in sharper colors than on Google Maps. This makes them both easier to find and more distracting when they aren't your target destination. In that way it's both better and worse. You don't need to know where those places are and they shouldn't distract you…unless that's actually where you need to go.
The real difference between the two is more stylistic than anything else. Google Maps is rigid, like a map is expected to be. This is how things are, period. Apple Maps is slightly artistic, which is a nicety, not necessity. Bing Maps, from Microsoft, is similar in that regard, although it actually fares more closely to between the two by offering higher-contrast imagery to make street names and streets easily visible on small displays. But in the case of a map, you want things to be perfect, not slightly off for the sake of better looks.
Winner: Google Maps
Traffic Details
Traffic details is almost too easy in favor of Google Maps. At times, you could swear that Google is tapped directly into local speed cameras because of how quickly it picks up the latest traffic trends. Nearly anywhere in the US (and often in major cities around the world) traffic details are spot on, often to the extreme. I can't count the number of times that Google Maps has said traffic got bad in a particular spot and, lo and behold, as soon as I arrived there it was just as GMaps predicted. Because they aren't predictions, they're accurate based on tons of data.
Apple Maps is very similar in that regard, but on a much smaller scale. Google Maps has tons of areas, both major metropolitan and smaller suburbs, mapped with traffic details. When I'm driving around LA during rush hour I can use Google Maps to navigate on side streets when the freeway and all major streets are red. Apple Maps only shows some major streets and freeways.
Worse yet, just like Google Maps used to do, Apple Maps blocks street information when it shows traffic information. If you need to know where traffic is, and Apple Maps actually has data to show, it is all too often blocking the actual street name, forcing users to zoom in just to see the text. But the real problem is just the lack of traffic data. Except for major cities, it is practically missing.
Winner: Google Maps
When it comes to how fast both applications work, they are practically identical. It's impossible to really tell the difference between the two because they really rely on only one thing: your data connection (and of course GPS information, but that's not a necessity). Since they both really only require a basic search for directions and then use GPS (assuming it's active) to make sure you're on the right track, actual speed of the applications is minimally different. Most users would have trouble noticing any difference.
From my tests, Apple Maps is slightly faster, but again, that difference is practically imperceptible.
Winner: Tie
Power Consumption
I used both Apple Maps and Google Maps heavily for the past week, testing out how well they last and how much of a power drain they both have. From my testing, I've found that they're practically identical for two reasons: first, the main power hogs are the GPS and the screen (if you leave it on). Everything else is so minimal that it pales in comparison to just how much of a power draw the GPS is.
On that note, it is fair to say that if you are looking for a smartphone and plan on using GPS tracking a lot, the iPhone 5 is not the best choice. Every day I've had to charge my iPhone 5 twice after an hour of driving. With push email, streaming music, and the GPS, the small battery just disappears instantly. As I write this I'm charging the phone again. It was at 30% by 11:30 this morning after plenty of email reading and using a few apps, plus 30 minutes of GPS navigation.
Winner: Tie
Ease of Use on iOS
While so many people are absolutely ready to switch to Google Maps, there are two major iPhone features that may make you take a step back and reevaluate that desire. The first is Siri functionality: only Apple Maps has it, which means that only Apple Maps will work when you are driving and voice search, "Directions to the nearest public toilet." In fact, if you're looking for directions anywhere from any app, Apple Maps is what will open. So even if you're dead set on using Google Maps, there's only one way to do it: copy the address, open Google Maps, and paste.
Compared to Apple Maps, that's a ridiculous amount of work. And we all know that while Apple users aren't necessarily as tech savvy as Android users, nobody wants to do all of that work just for a specific navigation app. Plenty will, but that doesn't make it any easier to use. And every app on iOS that jumps over to maps or navigation will access Apple Maps.
At least for the time being, anyways. Google has an SDK available for app developers so that their apps will open Google Maps for navigation instead of Apple Maps, so it's safe to say that plenty of apps will start making use of Google Maps, or at least offering users the option to select your preferred nav app of choice.
Winner: Apple Maps
Non-Driving Features
Of course, both map applications aren't just for driving and directions. They're also for general map use and other types of navigation. Both offer topographical and satellite maps, and while Google Maps has excellent and regularly updated satellite cartography, Apple Maps offers far better (albeit very buggy) topographical mapping, which includes not only hills and mountains but buildings as well.
However, as great as all of those features are, the most critical and important one is public transportation, something that Apple Maps simply doesn't offer. In fact, different types of navigation is something that Apple doesn't offer at all. If you don't own a car, Apple Maps is not going to be very helpful to you. Google Maps, alternatively, offers public transportation and walking directions. The only thing it's missing is biking directions, which is still in beta (like walking directions) but available on Android.
Still, Apple Maps doesn't even offer the public transportation, instead telling users to download a number of different 3rd party apps for such information, assuming it's available in the first place. For major metropolitan cities that's only okay. It should all work in one app, though Google's current solution isn't as significant a step forward as its original iOS maps app was. And if you're huffing it on foot, forget about Apple Maps.
Winner: Google Maps
Voiced Turn-by-Turn Directions
It may seem silly to rate the actual voice of directions, but there are a number of critical reasons for it, and a number of reasons why Google Maps is so much better. First, Google in general is a better voice search provider than anyone else, because they've spent years refining their voice recognition system. It is far better than Siri, no matter how horrible your data connection may be. In fact, Google just hired Ray Kurzweil — the father of voice-to-text — to help them further improve the application.
So when it comes to the actual voiced navigation Google's latest update sounds practically human. Siri may have sounded a bit wonky but humanistic a year back, but we all recognize its strangeness today. This is Apple's own doing; our culture has familiarized itself with the voice through advertisements and use. Google Maps' voice, however, is far more fluid and it sounds like an actual person saying sentences, not occasionally broken contractions formulating simple sentences.
Furthermore, I've found that Apple Maps is fairly good at alerting drivers for upcoming turns and direction changes (turn left in 200 feet, stay on this road for another mile, etc.), but Google Maps is better. In the past it was wretched, only telling drivers to do something moments in advance, far too late to do anything. Both navigation apps do this well, but Google Maps is better. It alerts drivers sooner, faster, and in a more pleasant voice.
But perhaps more importantly it does a better job of lowering the volume of music playing through the iPhone as well. Apple Maps nearly cuts the sound off completely; Google Maps lowers it just enough to hear the voice clearly, but doesn't lower the volume so much that the song is completely muted.
Winner: Google Maps
Additional Features
Aside from basic mapping and navigation, there's little else for a map app to do, right? For Apple, right. For Google…? There's always a little extra. Google offers a few helpful items, including an app link to open Google Earth on the location you're searching for, as well as cloud-based storage of searched addresses, just like Google Now for Android. It isn't quite as robust as Google Now; it won't show locations that you've searched for on another device or that are in your Google Calendar (yet), but it will show all recent searches in a simple drop-down (instead of requiring users to input the address directly, like on Apple Maps).
Furthermore, Google Maps has a simple feature to change between where you're coming from and going to with a simple button press, so you can search the best way back. It also allows users to store two main locations for instant navigation, home and work.
However, Apple Maps has full access to all of your contacts, so while you can instantly find your way home or to the office with Google Maps, Apple Maps will lead you to anyone you have an address for nearly instantly. No such feature exists yet on Google Maps, though I wouldn't be surprised if it were planned for the next release (should it be possible). Apple Maps also has a nifty feature of overlaying on top of any app you may be using while navigating so that you know of any changes visually. That means if you're driving and have, say, Pandora open, a notification will appear and stay in place while you drive. Google Maps will alert drivers to turn, but Apple Maps will say it and have it in writing.
Winner: Apple Maps
The design of both applications is very similar and very minimalist. They are both perfectly aligned to make sure users know where all of the buttons are while maximizing screen space for the map itself. Both apps block off the top and bottom corners for inputting addresses, starting navigation, finding location, and opening settings. However, they are surprisingly different after that.
Apple Maps has the basic text bar, a link to contacts, and an instant navigate-to button, while Google Maps offers the text bar, the type of navigation (car, public transit, or walking), personalized locations (home or work), and a map-to-north redirect on top, along with settings. Apple Maps lists the find-me and 3D buttons on the bottom left and settings on the bottom right. Google Maps uses the same find-me button on the bottom left, then a swipe menu on the bottom right for different layers (traffic, public transportation, satellite, and Google Earth).
Menu manipulation is also slightly different. Apple Maps uses one finger to move the map and two for pinch to zoom or 3D view. I specify or because the function only works one way or the other. If you zoom in or out, you have to take your fingers off the screen and then press again to change the camera angle. This can lead to some frustration, as we've seen with plenty of apps in the past that have multiple functions for very similar gestures. Google Maps has the same issue, and it isn't any better at the function, but it does have a secret better method: either three-finger swipes to change the camera angle, or a double tap plus swipe up or down to zoom in or out.
Both apps are very well designed, but Google Maps looks cleaner and, because of how often we all use Google Maps, far more familiar than Apple Maps. And that familiarity goes a long way to attribute comfort and trust with something like getting users to their desired destinations.
Winner: Google Maps
The difference between Google Maps and Apple Maps isn't really all that much, at least on the surface level. In fact, when it comes to general navigation tools I recommend an Android smartphone; the batteries on those phones last much longer for GPS and the software is more formidable and offers more options. It also updates much more often than anything on iOS. However, for iPhone owners, the choice is between these two major applications, a handful of minor ones, and a few expensive professional navigation apps like TomTom.
And when it comes to these two, we can safely say that there's a reason why Apple Maps head Scott Forstall was forced out of the company, and why Apple CEO Tim Cook publicly apologized for the app. In reality it is quite good, but it doesn't stand up to Google Maps in nearly every way.
In fact, the few areas where Apple Maps is better than Google Maps revolves around iOS functions in general. Siri functionality, utilizing the phone's contact list, and getting to navigation directly from another app make Apple Maps the default navigation app for the iPhone, no matter what iPhone owners do. Unless, like I suggested in the iPhone 5 review, you decide not to upgrade your pre-iPhone 5 iPhone to iOS 6.
Yet Google is still the king of mapping, and that isn't going to change. What will change is how apps and how Apple makes use of Google Maps, and what concessions the company will make to Google to keep their customers happy. It won't be long before plenty of apps that open a maps app will open to Google Maps. And while we may never see Apple giving the option to search for directions directly to Google Maps, they may just allow Google to interface with the contact list so those directions can be opened in an instant.
In effect, Google Maps may never be perfect on iOS like it once was, which is not a good sign for both Apple and for iPhone users as a whole, unless Cupertino decides to kill Apple Maps altogether and revert to Google Maps as their default navigation application. I don't see that happening anytime soon, but with how Apple is changing, who knows?

Joey Wong responds to comments on her "out of shape" looks
Former screen darling Joey Wong hogged headlines for her "disproportionate looks" when she was in Hong Kong for three days last week. The 46-year-old was displeased with the reports which claimed that her face looked "out of shape" due to cosmetic surgery.
In response to the claims, Joey had her friend post several ravishing photos of herself at the Hong Kong airport. She wrote: "To all fans, Joey has returned to Canada. To thank all of you for the support and to bid farewell, Joey has asked to share some of her personal photos during her trip."
The new set of photos, which showed the former actress posing for the camera in a graceful demeanour, was a stark contrast from the ones previously published in the papers. Joey's fans fervently commented on the microblog entry after it was posted, saying, "This is the 'Nie Xiaoqian' (Joey's famed character in the classic film A Chinese Ghost Story) that we know!"
Although Joey declined to reveal if she returned to Hong Kong for work, it is believed that the actress made the trip to "test the waters" and to pave the way for her showbiz comeback.

Dear Loka Prabhu and Cediraja Prabhu,
We are so sad to hear about the departure of your brother and father from this world. We understand that when a devotee departs, it is a time for rejoicing because that soul has gone home Back to Godhead. But at the same time, there is a sadness in the hearts of the friends and family left behind.
Sine Mukta Prabhu left in the association of devotees, he has had a glorious and wonderful departure. There is no doubt that he has gone back to Srila Prabhupada and Sri Krsna. We send you our love and sincere prayers.
Yoyr friends and servants,
Rama Tulasi dd

Strange questions that humans have not yet found an answer for!
We all have a unique course of action through out our day. Many of the conversation along with our friends or some that we hear from others talking at times surprise us and gets our brain thinking, but only to later ignore saying this might be beyond human reach. Have you come across any such question through your brain or from others which you think humans have not yet explored or researched or any unanswerable question?

Jul 30 2012: The resolution of Zeno's paradox is tied up with the idea of convergence.
One can show (using calculus, or infinite series, for example) that in certain cases, an infinite number of steps in a process (like reaching point B) does actually result in a finite quantity. That is to say, the steps 'converge.'
This is nice because, in reality, one reaches point B easily.
But even these very good mathematical arguments can be disputed in clever ways. In considering such questions, one dives the unfathomable depths a philosophical rabbit hole.
It'd be fun to do some research on this question if you're interested! But I warn that you'll likely lose even more sleep over what you find! lol

Microeconomics Chapter 16 Ten Things to Know from Chapter 16: What are the three basic sources of households? economic income? Roughly what fractions of total income come from each source in the U.S.? Wages or salaries received in exchange for labor 64% From property ? capital, land, etc. 22% From government 14% What determines people?s wage and salary income? What roles do skills, human capital, compensating differentials play in this determination? All factors of production (including labor) are paid a return equal to their marginal revenue product ? the market value of what they produce at the margin. Rewards of a skill that is in limited supply depend on the demand for that skill. Human capital: the stock of knowledge, skills, and talents that people possess; it can be inborn or acquired through education and training Compensating differentials: differences in wages that result from differences in working conditions. Risky jobs usually pay higher wages; highly desirable jobs usually pay lower wages What are transfer payments? What are the major programs that provide transfer payments in the U.S.? Transfer payments: payments by government to people who do not supply goods or services in exchange. Examples: Social Security programs Unemployment compensation Welfare payments Food stamps Medicaid and Medicare How are the components of economic income distributed across the different income classes of the population? See Figure 16.1. The top 5th has over half and it decreases as income decreases How has the distribution of money income varied over the last 50 years? See Table 16.2. The income distribution has remained mostly stable, but has moved slightly towards having the 5th having more and the bottom 4/5 losing ground How does the distribution of money income vary across households by race? See Table 16.3. White households have the most people with higher incomes, while few of other races do. The other races are the opposite ? the lower 4/5 has most of the income and the top 5th doesn?t have the most How does the U.S. government define poverty? What groups in the U.S. have the highest incidence of poverty? See Table 16.4. Poverty is the condition of people who have very low incomes Poverty Line: the officially established income level that distinguishes the poor from the non-poor. It is set at three times the cost of the Department of Agriculture?s minimum food budget. African Americans and Female households with no husband present What determines people?s property income? How is wealth distributed across the population? See Table 16.5. The amount of property income that a household earns depends on 1: how much property it owns and 2: what kinds of assets it owns. Such income generally takes the form of profits, interest, dividends, and rents The top ten percent has almost 70% of the wealth and the bottom 80% has 18.5% What are the main arguments in favor of income redistribution? What are the main arguments against redistribution of income? For: That a society as wealthy as the U.S. has a moral obligation to provide all its members with the necessities of life Punish innocent children? Elderly would have to survive exclusively on savings to survive ? bad luck not fair? Utilitarian justice: a dollar in the hand of a rich person is worth less than a dollar in the hand of a poor person Rawisian Justice: income distribution is necessary to maximize the well-being of the worst-off member of society Against: They believe that the market, when left to operate on its own, is fair ?one is entitled to the fruits of his own efforts? That it does not work Taxation and transfer programs interfere with the basic incentives provided by the market ? reduces incentives to work What are the major means by which income is redistributed in the U.S.? Who is eligible to receive benefits? What do they provide to recipients? Taxes finance the programs Social Security System ? elderly benefits Welfare ? families with dependent children whose incomes and assets fall below a very low level, the very poor regardless if they have children Unemployment compensation ? cash benefits for a certain amount of time for those who are laid-off Medicaid and Medicare ? health and hospitalization benefits to people with low incomes and to the aged and their survivors and disabled, respectively Food stamps: vouchers that can be used to buy food at grocery stores ? have a face value higher than their cost

It could be argued that Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga are the last pairing one might think would end up naked in a room together. Well, Tony kept his clothes on, but Gaga stripped down while Bennett whipped out his charcoal.
After recording a duet together of 'The Lady Is a Tramp,' the veteran singer, in his mid 80′s, sketched the pop star. Now, that drawing will be auctioned off and proceeds will be split between their charities. For Gaga, her Born This Way foundation and for Bennett, Exploring the Arts.
Gaga said about the experience, "I walked in and said, 'Well Tony here we are,' and I dropped my robe and I got into position. I felt shy and thought, 'It's Tony Bennett, why am I naked?'"

I love being surprised -- in a good way -- when dining out. Lately, the surprises have been sweet -- as in desserts.
Who would think you'd find some of the most awesome cakes and pies at a smalltown pub that sells a lot of pizzas, calzones and pints of beer? But that's what happened when we visited Two Brothers Pub in Salem. You can read my review here or check out the pictures on their Facebook page.
Who would think that, in addition to great food, a golf course in Rhode Island would have goodies like orange flan and mixed berry cobbler made by one of the owners? But that's what we found at Wood River Golf Course. You can read my review here.
And, finally, this week we went to check out Sandy-damaged Misquamicut and had dinner at the Andrea and enjoyed one of the coolest ideas for a dessert: make-your-own smores. You'll get the idea from the photo above. My full review is here.
What restaurant has the best desserts in your opinion?

Auto-Scrolling A Textbox
Question :
How can I auto-scroll a textbox ?
I use one in a little chat program, and I do something like
(on DataArrival)
Dim strdat as String
Winsock1.GetData strdat
Textbox1.text = textbox1.text & strdat
(end sub)
For some reason, when I do Textbox1.text = …… it scrolls up and that's very annoying .

FlexGrid Auto Scrolling
I have a problem in flexgrid auto scrolling. I call the scroll() method in the dragmove event:
private sub flexgrid drag_move(..., state as single)
if state=1 'Leaving flexgrid
end sub
private sub flexgrid_scroll()
flexgrid.toprow = flexgrid.toprow + 1
end sub
What i want is to scroll down or up while dragging an icon from the flexgrid if the mouse cursor is about to leave the flexgrid area. The code above works, about the scroll bar seems to go at the end of the flexgrid at the first move. Is there anyway i can do smooth scrolling and not an immediate end scroll?
Auto Scrolling In A VB App Window
Im making a VB app, which displays updates from a text file in the form of a message, in a message window. Each update is a single line, that simply says what value was added to the text file. Each message is aded to the message window one by one, as it comes in. I want the window to scroll down as new lines are added, so as to show the latest message in the window all the time. Currently, the window remains on top, and new messages are added to the window below..and i have to manualy scroll down to see the latest emssage.
Any simple way of ensuring that the window scrolls alongwiht each new entry?

Auto Scrolling A Text Box
I found code after doing a search for this topic and it works just fine. But i dont understand why it works.
VB Code:
Private Declare Function SendMessage Lib "user32" Alias "SendMessageA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal wMsg As Long, ByVal wParam As Long, lParam As Any) As Long Private Const EM_SCROLL = &HB5 Private Const SB_PAGEDOWN = 3 Private Sub Text1_Change()SendMessage Text1.hwnd, EM_SCROLL, SB_PAGEDOWN, ByVal 0&End Sub
There is nothing in my program that would actually call Text1_Change sub routine yet it works, which of course is a good thing. Can somebody explain to me why this works without calling the subroutine? am i missing something here?

Auto-scrolling Text Box
Hey all,
I've written an app with a textbox that I hope to have scroll to the bottom as I add information to it (a terminal window that shows processing information).
All the info I can find on this issue says to add
and possibly
This does not work. I still have to scroll the textbox manually, at which time I can see the selection carrot at the bottom of the textbox. Is there a way to have the textbox scroll with text as it is added? Do I possibly have to change on of this textbox's properties?

Stop FlexGrid From Auto Scrolling To End
When filling a flexgrid with data, if in the end there are more rows or cols than fit on the screen, the grid will be scrolled down to the end.
i want it to view the grid from the beggining (top-left) by default, not the end of the grid.
i tried setting the Grid.ScrollBars property to 0 (none), filling it with data and then changing the .ScrollBars property to 3 (Both), but i still got the same result. I tried the code
FlexGrid1.col = 0
FlexGrid1.row = 0
hoping it would scroll back to the top, but no luck there either.
couldnt find anything in a search so started a new thread.
Auto Flexgrid - Issue With Scrolling
I am using FlyGuy's Autosize flexgrid for one of the columns in my flexgrid. What I am finding that is unusual is that the column seems to be extended only to a certain size. If I use the horizontal scrollbar, and scroll to the right, I cannot see the whole column, only the portion that can fit on the grid. Is there a way to scroll by something other than column?
Auto-scrolling Scroll Bars
I am making a chat program and i run into the problem of the scroll bars of the text box going all the way back to the top when i get the data. I know why this is occurning, but i was wondering if there was a way to tell the textbox to scroll all the way down to the bottom so the users don't have to scroll everytime they get a message.

Auto-Scrolling Text Boxes
Here is another odd one in my learning of VB6.
I have a text box that gets filled with text relatively quickly and I would like the cursor to follow the text as it gets entered into the box because as of right now it just stays at the top and the user has to scroll manually. Is there anyway to easily automate the scroll of the text box so that it follows the text being appended to it?

Auto Scrolling A Form, While Changing Focus.
Would like to know if any of the more knowledgeable peeps out there know if it is possible to do the following:
I currently have a MDI Form on which of course other forms are loaded upon. however some of our users use different resolutions so when some of these forms are loaded they are bigger than the screen. IE the MDI form has scroll bars and the users are recquired to use them to view the rest of the form. I was wondering is there anyway to have the scroll bars automatically adjust to wherever the focus is as the user hits the tab key to jump from field to field.
Thanks in advance for anyone who can assist me.
Be assured all users who remain steadfast to their old resolutions have been flogged but have to make the masses happy.
[Not Resolved] Large Tab Control Auto Scrolling
This project is in Access2000.
I have a form with a really large tab control on it. All of the other controls belong to one of the 4 pages of the tab control. The tab control is so large, it has to be scrolled up and down. (I would make it smaller if the design of this project was up to me, but its not so i cant).
When FrmTab loads, the view is not at the top of the first page, but rather scrolled down a little bit. Also, when switching between pages, when one particular page is focused, the view is always scrolled down an inch or so.
My goal is to have the scroll bar always be at the top of the tab control when it loads, or when the page is changed.
I considered using the onchange event and the msghook package from the FAQ on how to have the mousewheel attached the scrollbar rather than the record browsing interface. This is a possible solution, but I'm eager to find a better/more simple solution, since this project will be distributed to many people, and I prefer to keep it as just 1 .mdb file.
I hope against hope that there is an easy method or trick for making this behave correctly. Any advice?

Auto Capitalization Of Types, Eg. Listbox Vs ListBox In VBAccess Code
I have two separate Access databases. When I am writing VB code in the first database and do a Dim lb as listbox the type is autocompleted in lowercase. In the second database it is autocompleted as ListBox. Both pieces of code seem to function just fine. Why the difference?
I've used the object browser to search for "listbox" to see if I have two kinds of listboxs due to the libraries I have loaded, but I find only one ListBox and it is in VBA.
I've also noticed similar behavior for "file' vs "File".
Listbox Scrolling
Is there a way to link two list boxes when scrolling?
For example, I have two list boxes, one showing a description and the other partnumbers. Is there a way to make it so when the user scrolls in the decription list box that the PartNumber list box will also scroll, so the partnumber displayed will match the description?
Scrolling Listbox
I've seen it in other applications, but I'm not sure how to do it.
I know that you can have those listboxes that scroll up and down/left and right when they are full of data that it cannot display all at once, but there is no Scroll option in the Properties menu.
How can I get one to do this??
ListBox Scrolling

Listbox Scrolling
Picture a Listbox (in report view) with just 2 headers.
Every now and again an item gets added to the Listview.
When there are quite a lot items in the Listview, the default view is at the top.
I scroll to the bottom of the ListView to see the latest events, and when an item is added, the view scrolls all the way back to the top.
Can I somehow keep the view at the bottom.
I hope you understand
Thanks !!
Listbox Scrolling
I have a listbox where I'm adding items as my applications runs over time.
However, I'm not getting any horizontal scrollbars even though the size of my text entries is longer than my listbox width. I do get vertical scrollbars when my list grows bigger than the listbox's height, but nothing for horizontal scrolling.
What do I need to do?
Scrolling ListBox
i am currently loading the three following times in a list box as strings on form load()
List1.AddItem "11:00"
List1.AddItem "14:00"
List1.AddItem "18:30"
i currently have an UpDown1 control scrolling through these values. my problem is that when i go to submit this form, even though List1(one-lined list box) displays the time i want it is not actually selected and i cant store the value it that is displayed. ie you have to click on the time to have it highlighted/selected.
i would like it so that the value display is the value the gets submitted. i recognise that a List box might the wrong answer for this problem
any help would be greatly appreciated

Scrolling In A Listbox
Hello everybody!
I'm new here and have one question I couldn't find the answer yet on the net. Maybe is really simple, but I couldn't find it out.
In a list box in a form in Access, I want by clicking on the button to select the first item in the list box (this is easy) and if there are lot of items in the list, I want selected item to be visible in the box i.e. the list to scroll to the beggining. I suppose scrolling is possible in visual basic but I can't find the way to do it.
The property that easily solves the problem List1.TopIndex from VB6 is not supported by VBA (I´ve sent this message first to "Newbies" group).
Additional question: Can anybody explain me why many useful features from VB are not working in VBA??
Any idea?
Thanks in advance,
ListBox Scrolling
Is there any way to have a list box autoscroll to the bottom? I want to use one in a chat program I'm building, but I don't want users to have to constantly scroll down.
MS Access Listbox Scrolling
I have a form in an Access database. The records are navigated through clicking a listbox that contains all of the primary keys of the table. Everything works perfectly with the navigation, but the text box scroll bar is behaving badly.
When the listbox is populated with data, it apparently doesn't refresh its scrollbar so the extent is not known. Having 5,287 entries just thus far in this db, I need to have the listbox able to scroll to the very end or anywhere in between immediately. When I drag the scroll bar initially, the items in the listbox do not scroll with it, and if I drag it all the way to the bottom and drop it, it "readjusts" itself realizing that it isn't big enough and pops the scrollbar back up a ways. I have to do this 24 times before the scrollbar realizes how big the list is.
When it finally sizes itself correctly, it works perfectly! Everything scrolls normally and it all works great. Does anyone have a suggestion?
Sluggish Scrolling ListBox
i created a few different .EXE applications with VB6.0 which has 1 ListBox
(Standard Style and no MultiSelect)
Scrolling the Items in the ListBox is sluggish, jumpy, slightly erratic
doesn't respond correctly when using Mouse to scroll the ListBox.
same results running in IDE or as an .EXE
ListBox seems to respond normally after Computer Reboot, but in short time becomes sluggish to scroll, or scrolls in leaps or erractically jumps around.
as long as you Scroll slowly, the ListBox scrolls smoothly
if i read in a very large 10,000+ line Text File into the ListBox, it scrolls smoothly and very fast......if i AddItem 100 or to 1000 Lines, it eventually scrolls sluggish/jumpy,erratic.
Listbox Scrolling Looks Backwards
I've noticed this for a while and I see it is fixed in VB.NET.. but is there any way to make Listboxes not look like they are scrolling up when scrolling down?
Has anyone else noticed this? When you use the mouse wheel to scroll down a few lines in a listbox, the actual listbox view area looks as if it is going up.. even tho the new values it displays are the correct lines. But its ugly.
Listbox Scrolling Problem
I have a Listbox with 100 items in it and a command button. The code
behind the command button says
If list1.selected (i) = true
list1.topindex = list1.listindex
end if
Which brings the item selected to the top of the listbox.
This works fine, until I manually scroll to the bottom of the listbox,
select an item, and click the command button.. Then the selected item doesn't automatically scroll to the top.
Any ideas how I can get this to work ?
Problem With Listbox Scrolling
Sometimes when i add an item to my listbox i´m unable to se the whole content of the item because the content is to long.
Thats why I´m using this code so i can make a horizontal scrollbar appear if it is necessary:
VB Code:
Private Declare Function SendMessageByNum Lib "user32" _Alias "SendMessageA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal _wMsg As Long, ByVal wParam As Long, ByVal lParam As Long) As LongConst LB_SETHORIZONTALEXTENT = &H194 Public Sub SetListBoxWidth(ByRef MyListbox As ListBox)Dim MyTextWidth As LongMyTextWidth = 0 For j = 0 To MyListbox.ListCount - 1 If TextWidth(MyListbox.List(j)) > MyTextWidth Then MyTextWidth = TextWidth(MyListbox.List(j)) End If Next j If ScaleMode = vbTwips Then MyTextWidth = MyTextWidth / Screen.TwipsPerPixelX ' if twips change to pixels SendMessageByNum MyListbox.hwnd, LB_SETHORIZONTALEXTENT, MyTextWidth, 0End If End Sub
Now, if i add a string to my listbox that looks something like this...:
mylistbox.additem "begin mystring" & vbtab & "end mystring"
...the code that makes the scrollbar appear doesn´t make the scrollbar long enough, so i can´t scroll enough to see the whole content of the item.
But if i add a string that looks like this...:
mylistbox.additem "begin mystring" & " " & "end mystring"
...the code that makes the scrollbar appear, now makes it long enough so i actually can see the whole content of the item. I have figured out that it must have something to do with vbTab, but i can´t understand what.
This is the code i use to set the tab-value:
VB Code:
Global Const LB_SETTABSTOPS As Long = &H192& Declare Function SendMessage& Lib "user32" Alias "SendMessageA" (ByVal hWnd&, ByVal _ wMsg&, ByVal wParam&, lParam As Any) Public Sub Tabstopp() ReDim tabstops(0) As Long tabstops(0) = 130 Call SendMessage(Lvisamaltid.hwnd, LB_SETTABSTOPS, 1&, tabstops(0))End Sub
Do u guys know what the problem is?
Problem With Scrolling Down Listbox

list1.listindex = list1.listindex + 1

How do I fix this? Its just simply suppose to scroll down the list.

Automatic Listbox Scrolling Down?
Hi there.
I'm using a listbox to keep a log of messages entered, and computer responses (not dissimilar to the Messenger chat log window), and I was wondering if anyone could help me have the listbox scroll to the bottom automatically, after each entry. Also... does anyone know if it's possible to alter text style (such as colour, for example) within a single listbox entry?
For example:
You said: Hello
^ ^
red blue
Or even if it could be set up to work as two separate entries, on different lines - I just don't know how to alter listbox entry colour. I'd be extremely grateful for any help offered.
Thanks again,

How Can I Automate Scrolling In A Listbox.
I currently use a textbox and a listbox. When type in the textbox it calls an api that finds the closest match in the listbox.
The item is selected in the bottom of the listbox. I would like to, however, see it selected in the top of the listbox. When I click on the vertical scrollbar i can move the items up to the top, that is what I want. I have no idea how to do it, because the listbox does not expose the scroll event. Any idea of an api that can help ?
This is what I use now, which shows the found item at the bottom of the listbox:
Private Declare Function SendMessage Lib _
"user32" Alias "SendMessageA" (ByVal hWnd _
As Long, ByVal wMsg As Integer, ByVal _
wParam As Integer, lParam As Any) As Long
Const LB_FINDSTRING = &H18F
Private Sub txtsearch_Change()
List1.ListIndex = SendMessage(List1.hWnd, _
LB_FINDSTRING, -1, ByVal txtsearch.Text)
End Sub

The zog would be happy to know you didn't try and do your part to end this crime. They can't ignore us if we all stand together and shout loud enough, or else they'd run the risk of exposing their true agenda! Sign today!

The Iguazu River is a river in Brazil and Argentina. It is an important tributary of the Parana River. The Iguazu River is 1,320 kilometres (820 mi) long, with a drainage basin of 62,000 square kilometres (24,000 sq mi). The Iguazu originates in the Serra do Mar coastal mountains of the Brazilian state of Paraná. For 1,205 kilometres (749 mi), to its confluence with the San Antonio River, the Iguazu flows west through Paraná State, Brazil.
Downriver from the confluence the Iguazu River forms the boundary between Brazil and Argentina's Misiones Province. Continuing west, the river drops off a plateau, forming Iguazu Falls. The falls are within national parks in both Brazil, Iguaçu National Park, and Argentina, Iguazú National Park. It empties into the Paraná River at the point where the borders of Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay join, and area known as the Triple Frontier.
