Human Capital and Economic Growth in Pakistan
Pakistan's economy has grown faster on average than many other low- and middleincome countries over the past two decades. But several countries in Southeast Asia have fared even better. This paper focuses on factors that explain Pakistan's relative growth performance. In addition to more traditional factors believed to determine growth, this paper looks particularly at the role of differences in the quality of human capital. The cross-country empirical results suggest that accumulation of physical capital and improvements in the quality of institutions have the largest pay-offs in terms of achieving higher growth, but that better education and health care also have a significant impact. Investment in these areas will increase the possibility of Pakistan entering a virtuous cycle of high growth and improved living conditions for the population.

A chart that accompanied a Page One article on Tuesday about student-loan forgiveness plans incorrectly labeled the Doctor of Medicine category as Master of Medicine.
China Resources Group has 420,000 employees. In some editions Wednesday, a World News article about the removal of the company's chairman incorrectly said it has 42,000 employees.

A U.S. News article on April 1 about law-enforcement agencies' success in unmasking Tor users incorrectly implied that Tor is only a browser.
A "black box" designed to transmit signals underwater for at least 90 days would be three times as long as—or, equivalently, two times longer than—the 30 days of those installed on Malaysia Airlines Flight 370.

I am using permalinks set to "post name" (example: xxx.com/the-post-name/)
The theme I am using generates search results in pages, using following code:
if( $wp_rewrite->using_permalinks() )
$pagination['base'] = user_trailingslashit( trailingslashit( remove_query_arg( 's', get_pagenum_link( 1 ) ) ) . 'page/%#%/', 'paged' );
if( !empty($posts->query_vars['s']) )
$pagination['add_args'] = array( 's' => get_query_var( 's' ) );
However, while the first page of returned results is fine, the subsequent pages do not work and just bump me back to the home page.
The URL produced is xxx.com/page/2/?s=searchterm
This doesn't seem right and in any case, doesn't work.
Is there something wrong in this code, or is there something wrong with the way my permalinks are set up?

My seven year old grandson wanted 'Endless Ocean: Blue World' for his birthday. I thought that this Wii game might lose its appeal after he played it a few times or he might become frustrated trying to reach the different levels. I was wrong. As he is a child with ADHD, I was amazed to discover that this game has held his interest for hours on end. His daddy has even continued to play the game long after his son had gone to bed. The graphics in this game are very beautiful and the challenges it presents have kept both father and son entertained affording them quality time together. I highly recommend this game!
Having played the first Endless Ocean game, I was looking forward to the release of Endless Ocean: Blue World. It has the same basic controls that are easy to learn. The game is easy to learn and makes many nice improvements. There are many more animals to find and you can select several diving locations throughout the world. In each location you will find different species, some that are unique to that region. The first Endless Ocean game had a specific limit on the area you could explore. But Endless Ocean Blue World allows you to explore the whole map. The adventure is new as well. You will have a variety of methods that open up to you. Some will appear later in the game so you will have something new to discover later in the game. There are other new features throughout the game, so there will be something to keep your interest. The only caution to keep in mind that this is diving game, so the pace of the game play is slow. There are sharks and other creatures that may charge you and hit you with their tail and deplete your oxygen, but you can calm them down with a Pulsar, which is a new tool. But if you like to play slower paced games and enjoy exploring and discovering new things such as animals and treasure then you will certainly like this game. If you enjoyed playing the first Endless Ocean game as well, you will enjoy the new additions this game provides.
This is a single person educational game. It is a great game and I am glad I bought.
This is a part two in the Endless Ocean series. I have played the first game and beat it in about 8 hours. I loved it, it is a nice change of pace from the typical grind of my MMO game and from the puzzle solving, challenge bearing, hard-core games. This is a fun and easy game for anyone at any age. I bought it as a gift for a VERY casual gamer who also scuba dives in real life and he really likes it. I can't wait to play this one!
This game is soo fun!It is also very realistic!Does however take alot of patience!Not something you'll be able to finish overnight!Have fun!
This game is great fun if your looking for an underwater adventure. I have not gotten through the entire game yet but so far its fantastic. Great graphics, a little slow in the story part but overall I would recommend this to anyone.
Its a really cool game with lots of information and a real lifelike view of the ocean life. Its a keeper one that you can play to the end over and over and not get bored. A very relaxing game with bits of excitement
This is a great game and is relaxing if your looking for a game that is fast paced then you will be let down by this game. With that said there are some different things added to this game that wasn't in the first. Given I've just started this game but there is a ability to heal marine life and rescue your fellow swimmer from a shark with a pulse gun. Just a beautiful game.
The game offers information on various sea creatures and pretty good graphics. Although I am finding the story a little hard to follow, i still feel this is a pretty good game overall.
Wife loves playing this game, And kids love watching it as she swims thru the ocean.
I just love spending hours looking for treasures and swimming with the fish and learning about other ocean life I haven't seen my self I would get this game for everyone to learn different skills.
I don't recommend this game for kids- it is much more suited for adults. It is a slower paced, story driven, relaxing game, rather than being a frantic action bonanza.
This was a birthday gift for my granddaughter and she loves it. Thank you for shipping it to our local store.
my daughter loves it, especially the dolphins. She is still playing with it so that is a good sign.
this thing rocks but u can get on land for a while
too many cut scenes and dialogue

Obama's views pose real danger
Published: Sunday, May 31, 2009 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, May 30, 2009 at 8:37 p.m.
To The Editor: President Obama promotes abortion aggressively. In the Illinois senate, he even voted to withhold medical treatment for babies who survive abortion. He ducks the question of when a baby gains human rights, saying that it is above my pay grade. That gives him moral cover for his abortion activism.
But the logic is clear on when human life begins. We undergo constant hormonal and physical changes from the moment of conception until death.
The transition from a single cell to a fully functioning person is continuous and seamless. We are a human being albeit in different form from the moment of conception. Therefore, abortion is the termination of human life for convenience.
There is grave danger that President Obamas disregard for human life will carry forward to universal health care. Discussions have already begun on the need to ration health care, meaning that the government will decide who is worthy of life-saving treatment. The elderly will be particularly vulnerable. It will be another assault on human life by the government.
Mr. Obama seems more concerned about protecting the rights of terrorists than he does about protecting unborn children and the elderly. Perhaps he really does think he is the Messiah.

Second Gravity Rush DLC detailed, third teased
Sony's shown off the second pack of DLC for Gravity Rush, as well as teasing just a bit on its third pack.
The second DLC pack will see an army content pack launching in Japan this Thursday.
The content will feature a special forces costume for Kat, two side missions and two challenge missions.
Then on April 5, the maid content pack will drop. No shots on that were released by Sony, but did tease it as a silhouette.

I wish we were talking about how New England Patriots cornerback Aqib Talib would impact on the Super Bowl. Oh, how everyone wishes that. But the seasons over, and we have to talk about the future of our players. One of those is Talib, who signed a deal until the end of the season after being traded. And he has had a great impact on the woeful secondary. You could tell as soon as Talib left the AFC Championship, we were pretty screwed. He also contributed a 59 yard pick six on debut against the Indianapolis Colts, and the most telling stat is how he impacted on big plays. We went from one of the worst teams at defending the deep ball (costing us games against the Seattle Seahawks and the Baltimore Ravens - twice), to one of the best. It sounds like we need this guy badly. He has also got the Patriot Way mastered in interviews.

God, Send Me Money!
Published: Thursday, April 22, 2010 at 8:35 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, April 22, 2010 at 8:35 a.m.
Little Johnny wanted $100 for a new bike and prayed for two weeks, but nothing happened.
Then he decided to write God a letter asking for the money. When the local postmaster saw the letter addressed to "God, USA," he decided to send it to the President of the United States.
The President was so impressed, touched, and amused that he instructed his secretary to send the little boy a $5 bill.
Little Johnny was delighted with the $5 and wrote a thank-you note to God. It read: "Dear God, thank you for sending the money. However, I noticed that for some reason you had to send it through Washington, D.C. As usual, those crooks deducted $95."

Evolutionary plasticity in prokaryotes: A panglossian view

Enzyme directed genetic mechanisms causing random DNA sequence alterations are ubiquitous in both eukaryotes and prokaryotes. A number of molecular geneticist have invoked adaptation through natural selection to account for this fact, however, alternative explanations have also flourished. The population geneticist G.C. Williams has dismissed the possibility of selection for mutator activity on a priori grounds. In this paper, I attempt a refutation of Williams' argument. In addition, I discuss some conceptual problems related to recent claims made by microbiologists on the adaptiveness of "molecular variety generators" in the evolution of prokaryotes. A distinction is proposed between selection for mutations caused by a mutator activity and selection for the mutator activity proper. The latter requires a concept of fitness different from the one commonly used in microbiology.

The name was lifted from The Dandy comic's character "Tin Lizzie", with an alteration of spelling (Dubliners pronounce "th" as "t").The core members were Lynott and Drummer Brian Downey, with guitar spots filled by a long list of ever changing names, the longest serving of which is Californian guitarist Scott Gorham, who moved to the UK to fill a guitar spot in Supertramp, but was unsuccessful.When he joined the band in 1974, the original guitarist Eric Bell had been and gone, recording the hit single "Whiskey in the Jar", Thin Lizzy's first major success. Joining Scott in the other guitar role was Glaswiegan Brian Robertson, a hot-headed Scottish guitar prodigy, and between them they developed the ground-breaking distinctive twin lead guitar attack which characterizes Thin Lizzy's sound.They finally found international recognition with 1976's Jailbreak, and Thin Lizzy's other hit, "The Boys Are Back In Town". The band led a career that lasted until 1983, when the band split, and all hopes of recording more original material were tragically crushed forever when Phil Lynott died in 1986, aged just 36.Thin Lizzy was a unique combination of hard rocking songs about fighting & cool characters, epic guitar parts & harmonies, and sensitive, thoughtful and wide-ranging songwriting. Thin Lizzy are unfortunately still under-appreciated and lesser known compared to their world-famous '70's and '80's contemporaries (they're still mainly only known for two songs, "Whiskey In The Jar" and "The Boys Are Back In Town"), but in their heyday they developed a reputation for being one of the best live bands in the world and once played to a gigantic crowd on the steps of the Sydney Opera House; their Live Album "Live And Dangerous" is widely regarded as one of the best live albums ever recorded.* They were also one of the few '70's rock bands who weren't dismissed as dinosaurs by the Punk Rock bands who rose at the end of the decade who appreciated the band's straightforward sound and lack of pretension.
- Lineup 1 (Phil Lynott on bass & vocals, Brian Downey on drums. With Eric Bell on guitars):
- Lineup 2 (with Brian Robertson and Scott Gorham on guitars):
- Lineup 3 (with Gary Moore & Scott Gorham on guitars):
- Lineup 4 (with 'Snowy White' & Scott Gorham on guitars & Darren Wharton on keyboards):
- Lineup 5 (with John Sykes & Scott Gorham on guitars and Darren Wharton on keyboards):
The tropes are back in town:
- Abusive Parents: "Frankie Carroll" is about an alcoholic man who beats his kids.
- Air Guitar: Thin Lizzy are just too damn riffilicious, and those guitar harmonies and the guitar "duels" are top-notch.
- Album Filler: A lot of Thin Lizzy's ballads can come off as this, as the juxtaposition can be jarring. Also, there is a 1972 song called "I Don't Want to Forget How to Jive", which never should have been recorded.
- Nightlife is considered to have quite a lot of filler, especially the second side.
- Album Title Drop: There is a title track (or a track whose name includes the album title) on most Thin Lizzy albums.
- All Drummers Are Animals: Inverted; Downey was "the quiet one", the others... not so much.
- Anti-Christmas Song: Phil Lynott got together with some ex-Sex Pistols and recorded a medley of Christmas tunes in a hard rocking style that comes off very ironic. Oh, and they were called "The Greedy Bastards".
- Audience Participation Song: The band were well known for this, and some songs were massively extended in concert for those call-and-response games. Other songs were written specifically for gigs and never recorded.
- Autobots, Rock Out!: "Emerald": the show piece is a "battle" between the lead guitarists.
- Break Up Break Out: Done dozens of times over their history, and now Lynott's gone nobody known for sure who's going to be in the band for the next gig.
- Breakup Song: "Still In Love With You", "Borderline", "Didn't I", etc.
- Call-and-Response Song: Thin Lizzy did this with many a Audience Participation Song.
- Canon Discontinuity: In order to record their first single "The Farmer", the band were required to record the song "I Need You", written by the owner of the studio. The band reluctantly did so, but never considered it part of their canon. As a result, the song has never been reissued since its original 7" vinyl single release (though it has been bootlegged on CD). As a result the original single is very valuable.
- Captain Obvious: Apparently, there's gonna be a jailbreak somewhere in this town. This troper's money is on the jail.
- Common Meter, Common Time: with only a few exceptions.
- Concept Album: "Jailbreak" and "Johnny the Fox" were born of failed attempts at this.
- Cover Version: Thin Lizzy covered Bob Seger's song "Rosalie" on the "Fighting" album.
- The Cover Changes the Meaning: Thin Lizzy's version of the popular Irish folk drinking song, "Whiskey in the Jar"
- Darker and Edgier: Johnny The Fox was considerably angrier and heavier than their previous albums - the main reason was that Phil was ill at the time he wrote it and therefore not in the best of minds.
- Drunk with Power: The story of "Watch out for the Danger".
- Genre Roulette: They were rooted in hard rock, folk and ballads, and their albums always featured a mixture. Their second album Shades Of A Blue Orphanage is somewhat jarring in how it seems to have done this deliberately.
- The Rise And Dear Demise Of The Funky Nomadic Tribes (Funk Rock)
- Buffalo Gal (Country Ballad)
- I Don't Want To Forget How To Jive (Rockabilly)
- Sarah (Easy Listening)
- Brought Down (Power Ballad)
- Baby Face (Hard Rock)
- Chatting Today (Folk)
- Call The Police (Funk Rock)
- Shades Of A Blue Orphanage (Easy Listening)
- Greatest Hits Album: Hardly a year goes by when a new one of these doesn't get released. Sometimes if you're lucky, you'll get one with rare b-sides or unused tracks (such as the "Vagabonds Kings Warriors Angels box set).
- Hard Rock
- Heavy Meta: The song "The Rocker", which is supposed to be a satire of the stereotypical "rocker" image that was around in the early seventies (as in Mods & Rockers).
- I Am the Band: Pretty much any band that Lynott was in became Thin Lizzy, with the exceptions of when he toured in release of one of his solo records.
- Subverted in that the current lineup of Thin Lizzy doesn't contain Lynott at all (due, obviously, to his death).
- Lonely Piano Piece: The original "Sarah", "Frankie Carroll".
- Long Song, Short Scene: The majority of Thin Lizzy's material just doesn't get the widespread exposure it deserves. Also, two parts of "Dancing in the Moonlight" were mercilessly spliced together for a cider advert.
- Sha La La is usually considered to have been wasted as a Nightlife album track. Had the band released it as a single it might have been a hit. Luckily a live version would appear on Live And Dangerous, a live album which is considered one of the best ever.
- Lead Bassist: Phil Was Both Types B and C.
- Mohs Scale of Rock and Metal Hardness: On which they move about quite wildly, around the 3-to-6 marks — although they mainly stay at a standard 4 or 5. They were around an 8 back in the '70s, however.
- Money Song: "It's Only Money".
- Morality Ballad: Averted. For example, the song "Suicide" is about a murder that goes reported as a suicide due to lazy and incompetent police work. Case number 81 remains unsolved, presumably forever.
- "Frankie Carroll" tells what effect alcohol can have on a man with little morals.
- Murder Ballad: A lot of Thin Lizzy songs are about death. "Killer on the Loose", "Warrior", "Emerald", "Angel of Death", etc.
- Myspeld Rökband: In a sense. It was named as a pun on "tin lizzy", but with "tin" mispelt as "thin", a joke on how Dubliners would pronounce "thin" as "tin".
- New Sound Album: Frequently done, the most significant of these was Fighting as it signalled the beginning of their most well-regarded period.
- Obligatory Bondage Song: "S&M" from the "Black Rose" album.
- One Woman Song: "Philomena" (Phil Lynott's mother), "Rosalie" (a Bob Seger song), "Sarah" (Lynott's grandmother) and "(My) Sarah" (Lynott's daughter).
- Rock Star Song: apart from the satirical "The Rocker", there is also "Rocky".
- "The Boys Are Back In Town" definitely describes the rock star lifestyle.
- Self-Titled Album: Their debut.
- Sex, Drugs and Rock & Roll: What many of their songs are about, but also the eventually deadly lifestyle of Lynott himself.
- Shout-Out: In addition to the traditional songs it riffs on, "Roisin Dubh: Black Rose" gives nods to fellow Irishmen James Joyce, William Butler Yeats, Oscar Wilde, George Bernard Shaw, Brendan Behan, George Best, J M Synge and Van Morrison.
- Add "That's Fats", a hommage to jazzer Fats Waller. (Not Domino!) Also contains a Take That to Sigmund Freud, who (allegedly) is the only one who doesn't like Fats.
- Something Blues: "Slow Blues" and "Sugar Blues"
- Song of Song Titles: The sub-titles of the mini-epic "Roisin Dubh: Black Rose (A Rock Legend)" reference the original Irish/Scottish/English folk melodies the track contains.
- Spoken Word in Music: A couple; the intro to "Fool's Gold" and "The Friendly Ranger at Clondarf Castle".
- Subverted Rhyme Every Occasion: averted - Lynott was a master at rhyming lyrics.
- Subdued Section: More common in the band's earlier period.
- Super Group: Technically whilst Gary Moore was in the band in 1979, as he had already cemented himself as a solo act by this point. Somewhat of a subversion in that he not only had been briefly part of the band in 1974, but he also was part of Lynott's previous band Skid Row (not to be confused with the American band of the same name).
- Towards the end of their existence, the band briefly featured Midge Ure, first on guitar, then later on keyboards. He played with the band live, as well as played on and co-wrote a handful of recordings. He would soon after join Ultravox as their new vocalist (including their biggest hit Vienna) and also co-organised Live Aid with Bob Geldof.
- Three Chords and the Truth: Lynott's writing style was often based around this, but the production and arrangement would usually transform them into something more elaborate.
- This song is fully in effect on songs like "The Boys Are Back In Town" and its clones "Get Out Of Here" and "No One Told Him".
- Title Only Chorus: "Look What The Wind Blew In", "Things Ain't Working Out Down On The Farm", "Call The Police", "The Boys Are Back In Town", "Rosalie", and "Get Out Of Here".
- Triumphant Reprise: The end of "Roisin Dubh: Black Rose (A Rock Legend)".
- What the Hell Is That Accent?: Phil sings "Philomena" in an exaggerated Irish accent, as the song was written for his mother who was Irish. This qualifies because the accent he uses in the song sounds nothing like his normal singing voice, and it's nothing like his speaking voice either. In a strange subversion, this song is otherwise the most melody and Lizzy like track on the album, which meant it was released as a single. It flopped, otherwise people might have bought the album confused that the accent was different.

|"Nova" #16 on sale next week
As the last of the Nova Corps, Richard Rider has been tasked with dispensing justice all over the cosmos. Riderâs jurisdiction may be the known galaxy, but Marvelâs âSecret Invasionâ has begun and his home planet of Earth is at war with the Skrull Empire, which means itâs time for the Human Rocket to fly home. In next weekâs âNovaâ #16, Rider sets out for Earth and in next monthâs âNovaâ #17 he arrives to a planet under siege. Fortunately for Rider, he wonât have to fight the Skrulls alone. Nova will receive some unexpected help from his former New Warriors teammate, Darkhawk. CBR News spoke with âNovaâ writers Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning, collectively known to their fans as DnA, about Darkhawk and what the characterâs return means for âNova.â
Seventeen years ago, in the pages of âDarkhawkâ #1, teenager Chris Powell touched a mysterious alien amulet and was transformed into an armored superpowered being. In his Darkhawk form, Powell had a number of abilities including flight, energy projection and a claw-like grappling cable, which he could launch from his right arm.
The âDarkhawkâ ongoing series lasted from 1991-1995 and Powell also saw action as a member of the New Warriors. In 2005, Darkhawk appeared in the pages of âRunaways,â where he joined the former teen superhero support group known as Excelsior. Most recently, the members of Excelsior appeared in the âThe Lonersâ by writer C.B. Cebulski and artist Karl Moline.
|"Nova" #17
Darhawkâs appearance in âNovaâ came about because of a suggestion by DnAâs editor Bill Rosemann, one that the writing duo thought made perfect sense. âFor the most part, Darkhawk reminds us of Nova - young, hot-headed, under-appreciated, under-used,â the writers told CBR News. âBut thereâs a mystical quality to him, that contrasts him with Novaâs SF edge. And heâs got that temper, of course.â
Despite Darkhawkâs temper, DnA feel the character and Nova could possibly become very good friends. âThey have been teammates, after all, and they complement one another,â DnA said. âRich has a âbig brotherâ edge--especially after what heâs been through these last couple of years. He could probably teach Chris quite a lot.â
âNovaâ #17 finds the title character battling to stave off a Skrull assault on Project Pegasus, a high tech alternative energy think thank where his brother works. Project Pegasus is located in New Yorkâs Adirondack Mountains and also employs Darkhawk but when readers last saw the hero in âThe Lonersâ he was with his teammates in California. âBill Rosemann and C.B. Cebulski are currently locked deep within the House of Ideas coordinating Darkhawkâs flight path,â DnA remarked.
|Pages from "Nova" #17
When Darkhawk appears in âNovaâ heâs still having a little trouble controlling the fits of rage heâs prone to while in his armored form. âBut heâs focused,â DnA stated. âHeâs got a very responsible job, and he takes it very seriously.â
Things will be deadly serious for Nova and Darkhawk during the âSecret Invasionâ tie-in arc of âNova.â The duo will have to contend with an onslaught of both normal Skrull soldiers and Super Skrull shock troops. Fortunately the young heroes wonât have to fight off the Skrull siege on their own. âThere are the Guardsmen patrolling Project Pegasus and--well, there is one other guest, but we canât possibly give that away,â DnA teased.
âNovaâ #17 marks the first time Darkhawk appears in the Human Rocketâs book, but thereâs a good chance he may become one of the titleâs reoccurring characters. DnA remarked, âProvided he survives--provided anyone survives, weâd like to do more with him.â

Patient Comments: Endometrial Ablation - Side Effects
Question:Did you experience any side effects from your endometrial ablation?
Comment from: Fagino, 45-54 Female (Patient) Published: April 29
I had an endometrial ablation yesterday to treat pre-menopausal perpetual bleeding. When I woke up in recovery I thought I was going to lose my mind, the cramping was so bad! It took a few hours and lots of medication before I felt better. I got sent home with some with tramadol (which I"ve never had before) but it"s very effective. It has certainly helped me through some very strong cramps. Hoping to be better and off them tomorrow. Bleeding is down to spotting and I am hopefully that this procedure will be successful. Thus far I am glad I did the procedure.
Comment from: Mckit2u, 35-44 Female (Patient) Published: April 22
I had the NovaSure endometrial ablation (due to heavy menstrual bleeding) back in May 2013. I have a high tolerance to pain medications and was given 4 different pain killers that did nothing for me. The doctor stated she was pulling fibroids and polyps out my uterus before the procedure, which I could feel everything. I then underwent the 90 second procedure in which I felt everything she was doing to me, as tears were rolling down my face. It was the worst feeling ever. I was in pain for several days after the procedure. I was never called back in for a follow up appointment following the procedure. Now, here I am almost a year later, my periods are getting lighter to the point of nothing and darker in color, but the pain I am experiencing is beyond anything I can really explain. I am literally in a fetal position with pain. Nothing OTC will help alleviate the pain. I am now sure after doing some research I have post ablation syndrome or even hematometra. This would explain the pain I have each month in my pelvic area.
Comment from: Ziggygal, 45-54 Female (Patient) Published: April 22
I had the endometrial ablation procedure on Wednesday and the immense pain straight after was excruciating, coupled with constant need to urinate. Now it is Friday and I'm still in pain and have pain in my left arm (not worried about that yet). I"m hoping this operation has been for the best; fingers crossed. I"m usually okay with pain but wow!
Comment from: Louise, 35-44 Female (Patient) Published: April 17
I had a hysteroscopy and endometrial ablation 5 days ago. The pain when I awoke from general anesthesia was horrific, I have had children and appendicitis and gall bladder removal but, boy, this post-surgical pain was a 10/10. Day 2, I had horrific pain, discharge, and diarrhea. Day 3, I had less pain and discharge. Day 4, I had intense cramping leaving me unable to stand up straight. Day 5, I have heavy bleeding and discharge and intense cramps. Wondering if this is now my life, I didn"t suffer with cramps before, just 2 cycles per month. What have I done, and will it be worth it!
Comment from: Mary, 45-54 Female (Patient) Published: April 11
I had endometrial ablation and I feel great. I did not have any pain except for a few mild cramps and have not taken any antibiotics. The best thing that ever happened to me. I woke up from surgery wondering if they really gave me surgery but since I do not have a period anymore I know they did.
Comment from: MamaLenore, 35-44 Female (Patient) Published: April 11
I had an endometrial ablation and tube (not tubes because I only have one) tied on February 7th 2014. The first 30 days were pretty nasty with the bleeding and odor. I kept waiting for the bleeding to stop and it did at the beginning of March. I was so excited not to have that heavy period getting in the way. But that only lasted the month of March. Here we are in April and just out of the blue, the bleeding came back for a visit. I guess it didn"t work or maybe this will be the final period. I have some cramping, bloating and a slight headache.
Comment from: tawnydawny21, 25-34 Female (Patient) Published: April 11
I had my ablation done 3/20/13. Recovery time was very minimal. As a matter of fact, I was able to return to my normal daily activities the following day and I never required any sort of pain medicine. It has now been over a year and until recently I have not had any bleeding what so ever. A couple of weeks ago I noticed some spotting. It lasted for about a day and then it went away. However, I started bleeding yesterday and it seems to be pretty heavy. I have an appointment to see my doctor, but I was just wondering if anybody else has this happen to them.
Comment from: Lady T, 35-44 Female (Patient) Published: March 26
I hand an endometrial ablation in 2009. I went through the time period of the funky discharge at the beginning. After that, everything was great until about 6 months ago. I noticed more wetness than normal. At first there was a clear discharge with no odor, nor itching. Lately the discharge is yellowish, still with no odor but now there is itching. I"m sure it"s because of the moisture. I"m about ready to scream because of it.

I'm revamping a bunch of my old posts that were originally formatted using tables instead of CSS. What I'd like to do is look through the posts and replace any particular string of HTML with the new CSS selectors, for instance, replace

Step 2

'
Step 2
'
I've tried this:
UPDATE wp_posts SET post_content = REPLACE(post_content, '

2

', '
Step 2
');
But it throws an error, likely because of the HTML characters or quotes or something. It's going to be a pain to go through 100 posts and change this stuff unless I can figure out a way to do it globally, so any help would be GREATLY appreciated. I'm sure there's some little trick, but I've spent 2 frustrating hours with Google and am no closer than when I started.
Thanks in advance!

Customer Reviews
Rated 5 out of 5 by 3 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Ozzy Cockapoo doing well on Blackwood food. My 7-year-old Cockapoo has a history of ear infections and acid reflux. When I removed grains from his diet his ears cleared up. When I switched from food with potato as the starch to Blackwood's fish meal and field pea he no longer has acid reflux. So far so good. I would definitely recommend this food. September 6, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Gloria51 No More "Hershey Squirts"! I have 3 dogs and have always fed them high quality food. My Cocker developed colitis and nothing could stop it. As a final resort, I tried this product and it was like a miracle happened. I could tell by her behavior that she even feels better. I was out of dog food when Blackwood arrived so I never gradually changed their food over, and none of the dogs had a problem---and they LOVE the taste. I will definitely order this food from now on.

Hi there,
This post is just to feed my curiosity.
I have three different domains binded (DNS + srv config) to the same server and the same path on this server. I would like to run three, completely separate blogs, using the same WP engine.
Would that be possible in any way? And is so - what steps should be undertaken to achieve this?
Why would I like to have three blogs run by one engine, instead of changing configuration so each domain would point to a different folder on server and installing three different WPs? Well... there are many advantages in my opinion. To name: one administration, one maintenance, one version update and many more things that can be speed up, while centralizing management of three blogs in one engine.
Once again -- this is purely to feed my curiosity. I assume that above is not possible at all and that I'm asking for something not possible. Which lead me to a conclusion, than eventually I'll end up with three different WPs instalation in three separate server folders.
Thank you in advance for any reply.

It is possible to obtain bad credit personal loans. In these economic times, many people have been laid off, their companies merged, downsized or they have ceased to exist because they have gone out of business. It is not uncommon for many workers to have a spotty, if not a downright bad credit history.
There are loans available for folks in this situation called "payday loans" where a loan can be made for a short period of time from one payday to the next. There are usually no credit requirements, but a person must have a steady source of income and own a credit account.
The loan can be obtained online and it will receive almost immediate approval if the borrower meets the lender's criteria. Once the borrower completes the application, the money can be wired to the borrower's checking account in a day or two.
These types of personal loans for bad credit are then to be repaid at the borrower's next payday. This is not too unreasonable if the amount borrowed is not the borrower's entire paycheck. The loan amount will be due along with interest.
The interest is high as these loans are being made to people whose credit is not good, and they would have difficulty walking into any bank and getting a loan.
People have financial emergencies such as a sudden breakdown of the car that is the only means of transportation to and from work, or a medical emergency of a child needing to go to the hospital, or relatives are ill out of town.
The capability of having ready cash available as soon as the next day or so, really solves a lot of immediate problems. People who are good at paying these loans back on time, are able to continue borrowing, and their limit can most likely be raised.

When Alma tells Gus about Omar's shooting, she describes him as a 34-year-old male, but the tag on his body bag at the end of the episode lists his D.O.B. as 8/15/1960, which would make him 47 at the time of this episode.
During the crime scene investigation of Omar's murder, Crutchfield says to Bunk "You should've let me give him the years, he would've been better off!"
This is referring to an incident during season four when Chris attempted to frame Omar for shooting a delivery lady in Old Face Andre's store. Crutchfield was investigating and could have gotten a conviction except Bunk stepped in and pleaded with him not to.
On the way to Quantico, McNulty tells Greggs that Bunk once said "I'm no good for people, everyone around me," which is a reference to the end of the season one episode "Lessons."
The rapper Jim Jones, of The Diplomats, can be seen standing outside a corner store holding a large soda next to Chris and Snoop as they re being tailed by police from the Western District.
Bubbles' full name is finally revealed in this episode as Reginald Cousins.
McNulty: You miss what you had though?
Kima: I still got too much dog in me to be settled like that.
Omar: You workin' a Stanfield corner, which means you workin' for a straight up punk! Ya' feel me? I'm out here in these streets every day, me and my lonesome, and where he at? Huh? A'yo, ya'll put it in his ear, Marlo Stanfield is not a man for this town, ya' digg?
Rawls: Bad news gentlemen, as we're actually gonna have to catch this motherfucker. Good news is that our Mayor finally needs a police department more than he needs a school system.
Rawls: I mean, I'm all for a little kinky shit every now and then, but chewin' on a homeless fella'?

A Le Moyne education invites students to live lives of service, faith, intellect, and integrity.
A Jesuit education is not simply about reading from a textbook or researching information online.
Le Moyne is the second youngest of the 28 Jesuit colleges and universities in the United States.
More than just the members of the Society of Jesus, our Jesuit community extends to all corners of our campus.
Some things last the test of time. That includes the rich, 500-year-old Jesuit heritage upon which the College was founded.
What's the best way to learn about life at Le Moyne? Explore, investigate and discover our beautiful campus for yourself.
Submit your application for undergraduate, graduate or continuing education programs today.
G.I. Bill® Educational Benefits
Put your mind to work – for yourself, for your future, and for your world.
Clubs and Organizations
Everything you experience teaches you something about yourself and the world around you. Savor as many as possible.
Your gift to Le Moyne today is an investment in countless tomorrows.
The Le Moyne College history faculty is a community of scholars dedicated to excellence in both teaching and research. The faculty's expertise spans the globe: from the United States and Europe to South America, Africa, and the Middle East. Le Moyne's historians specialize in Women's history, Church history, Russia and modern East Asia, the Islamic world and issues of colonialism and post-coloniality.
The current faculty has published over two dozen books, scores of articles and chapters in anthologies, and more than one hundred book reviews in scholarly journals. Our articles and reviews have been in the American Historical Review, the Journal of American History, the Boston Globe, The Nation, Slavic Studies, Albion, and the International Journal of Middle East Studies; we have appeared on local news shows and national PBS series.
Edward Judge's biography of V.K. von Plehve received the AHA's Best First Book Award, and his Easter in Kishinev: Anatomy of a Pogrom has been republished in both German and Russian. Douglas Egerton's study of the Virginian slave conspiracy of 1800 garnered him the annual book prize of the Society of Historians of the Early Republic. Articles written by members of the faculty have earned the Filson Society's Otto Rothert Award, the Alabama Historical Association's Milo Howard Award, and the South Carolina Historical Association's Malcolm C. Clark Prize.
Equally important is our dedication to teaching. We strive to offer courses that are stimulating, challenging, enlightening and provocative, providing students not only with a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of history, but also with the ability to think clearly, analyze evidence and events, conduct effective research, and communicate well. Beyond that, we work with our students on a personal basis -encouraging them, prodding them, challenging them, affirming them, and helping them to be the best that they can be. A number of our faculty have won awards for teaching excellence, and John W. Langdon was the first recipient of the Kevin G. O'Connell Distinguished Teaching Professorship.
