Transforming Lives
Primary tabs
Every day, all over the world, USAID brings peace to those who endure violence, health to those who struggle with sickness, and prosperity to those who live in poverty. It is these individuals — these uncounted thousands of lives — that are the true measure of USAID's successes and the true face of USAID's programs.
April 2014—Veronique Diawara, 26, lives in the small town of Kita, just three hours away from the capital city of Bamako in Mali. An obstetric nurse, she has been working at her local community health center for three years. Diawara attends many deliveries on a daily basis, sometimes facing complications that put the mother's health and/or life at risk. One of the dangers she faces is postpartum hemorrhage, or the loss of more than 550 milliliters of blood after delivery.
Fatimata Touré's hard work might be unkown to many, but it has not gone unnoticed. She was recently recognized at the 2014 International Women of Courage Award Ceremony for her exceptional efforts to promote women's health rights and fight against acts of gender-based violence. She was one of 10 women to receive the award from the U.S. Department of State and the first lady of the United States, Michelle Obama.
Approximately one in 10 children in Mali die before reaching their 5th birthday, and malaria is the number one cause of death.
In mid-2011, a violent crackdown on anti-government protestors exploded into a large-scale conflict in Syria, forcing millions to flee. As Syria's largest neighbor, Turkey opened its 511-mile border to over 500,000 Syrians seeking refuge from violence at home.
Maintaining an open border policy with its southern neighbor, Turkey provides housing and relief services to hundreds of thousands of refugees living in 21 camps across 10 provinces as well as in urban areas.
The Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province (KP) of Pakistan have been plagued by complex cycles of violence and military activities since 2008. The initial insecurity led to the mass displacement of more than 3 million, and while many have since returned to their homes, 1 million internally displaced persons (IDPs) still remain separated from their homeland.
This displacement has caused severe disruption to the food security of these individuals and significant losses of productive assets.
Karimou Karidjo, a 29-year-old farmer from the Tillabéri region of Niger, has had difficulty supporting his wife and four children due to poor harvests.
"I have to find food for my children. To do so, I collect and sell wood, but even then it is difficult to put food on the table," he says.
The war that ravaged Kosovo in the late 1990s took a devastating toll on the country's infrastructure, and its schools were no exception. Even in 2010, when USAID launched its Basic Education Program, most classrooms were little more than open rooms with very few of the kinds of educational materials that could be found elsewhere in Europe.
Lufta që rrënoi Kosovën në fund të viteve 1990 mori një kthese shkatërruese në infrastrukturën e vendit, edhe shkollat nuk u përjashtuan. Madje në vitin 2010, kur USAID-i prezantoi Programin për Arsim Themelor, shumica e klasave ngjasonin në dhoma të hapura me shumë pak materiale edukative të cilat mund të gjenden çdo kund në Evropë.
Katouma, 48 months, is amongst the cleanest, happiest and most active children of the many gathered with their mothers in Tion, the Ségou region of Mali. The mothers discuss a newly introduced approach to nutrition and the benefits it has brought to their households.
"Before the [program], Katouma was always sick and crying and didn't have energy," said Katouma's mother, Kadija Konta. "Now look at her!"

Over the next few minutes the auctioneer swiftly worked the rows of face-lifts, Chanel handbags, pinstripes and perma-tans, reaching the giddy price of pounds 15,000. The buyer was Isabelle Goldsmith, daughter of Sir James Goldsmith, the billionaire businessman, ecologist and - since the European elections earlier this month - French MEP.
Evening dresses trimmed with mink, jackets made from silver fox, broadtails and sheepskins all reached well in excess of their estimates. 'Frankly I'm surprised,' said Patricia Frost, of Christie's. 'Normally we never sell real furs but these were an intrinsic part of this collection.'
Coming under the hammer was the haute couture wardrobe of the late Mrs Heard de Osborne, which raised pounds 134,667, three times the expected amount. Her lineage was plainly apparent, a Texan oil heiress married to a Spanish sherry merchant, a veritable remix of the original conquistadors.
She epitomised bravura, reflected in her penchant for matador jackets and by the size of her wardrobe, spanning four decades from the 1950s to the year of her death in 1987.
There were many esoteric and strange little outfits, ranging from a restrained bell-shaped evening coat designed by Balenciaga, under the label Eisa in the mid- 1950s, to a plethora of understated day dresses and snappy cocktail wear by Givenchy.
But it was the high velocity, unashamedly glamorous pieces which were endlessly fought over. In keeping with the current return to glamour, it was the hedonistically velvety and sexily spikey Yves Saint Laurents which sold for thousands. A crimson velvet evening dress and matching jacket, encrusted with jet beading, from one of YSL's most memorable collections, The Russian Collection of 1976-77, reached pounds 3,600 (estimate pounds 400- pounds 600).
Apart from a high turn-out of private collectors, there were many dealers from New York and representatives from the Kyoto Museum in Japan. Ironically, the House of Givenchy, creator of many hundreds of outfits for Mrs Heard de Osborne, made telephone bids, buying back for its own Paris archives.

Dear Bullies,
That boy you punched in the hall today; committed suicide a few minutes ago. That girl you called a slut in class today; she's a virgin. That boy you called lame; has to work every night to support his family. That girl you pushed down the other day; is already being abused at home. The girl you just called ugly? She spends hours putting makeup on hoping people will like her. The boy you just tripped? He is abused enough at home. See that man with the ugly scars? He fought for his country. That guy you just made fun of for crying? His mother is dying. You think you know them? Guess what, you don't. Copy and Paste this to your profile if you are against the mean bullying. I bet 99% of you wont. IF U HAVE A HEART, YOU WILL COPY AND PASTE THIS ON YOUR PROFILE TOO STOP BULLYING! SPREAD THE WORD! ♥♥♥

Mission Statement
The mission of the UNC Department of Operative Dentistry is to promote excellence in teaching, research, service and patient care, thus supporting and advancing the mission of the UNC School of Dentistry.
The department faculty and staff achieve this mission by working collaboratively in each of these core domains. Our teaching, research, service and patient care goals are:
The department's primary goal in teaching is to provide evidence-based didactic, pre-clinical and clinical education to predoctoral and advanced education students in operative and deneral dentistry. This goal is achieved by several key predoctoral pre-clinical and clinical programs, as well as advanced education programs (Master of Science program and Advanced Education in General Dentistry Program).
The department's research goal is to advance basic and applied knowledge in operative and general dentistry through clinical, cariology, health services, biomaterials-biomimetics, bone-dentin biology and dental education research programs. Research and scholarship activities result in shared knowledge in the form of peer-reviewed and scholarly publications as well as academic presentations locally, nationally and internationally.
The department's service goal is for the faculty and staff to engage in local, state, national and international committee and leadership activities, professional organizations, continuing education and other service-related efforts.
Patient Care
The department's patient care goal is to advance the health of the people of North Carolina and beyond. This goal is strongly linked to our teaching and research core goals, and is achieved through the delivery of operative and general dentistry patient-centered care in the predoctoral and advanced education clinics, the Dental Faculty Practice and our clinical research programs.

From now till spring, I will be shifting my focus to finishing up all those "projects" a manufacturer has laying around. The end of roll specials, odd sized, blemished items, and things that just do not make the cut. As I get them finished up, they will be added to my "Gear Up" section of my site. So, check back from time to time to see what is new.
I am also expanding options for accessory packages. Now you will be able to choose between standard and premium quality accessories. For those who are the occasional hiker/camper, and value is important, the standard accessory package will meet their needs. Everything is still high quality but maybe not quite as "light" or "fancy" as the high-end accessories. For those who are wanting the "best of the best", look to the premium accessory package. To meet the needs of the dedicated outdoor enthusiast, I am now offering accessory packages using products from Lawson Outdoor Equipment. He has dedicated a lot of time, research and resources into developing the accessories that will improve your outdoor experience. This will apply specifically to my tarp selections to begin with.
Fabric Choices - In the past few years, the selection of fabrics available for lightweight backpacking / hanging have expanded dramatically. I try to carry an assortment of the fabrics (Silnylon, SilPoly, PU Coated, Ripstop Nylon), allowing for as much personalization as possible. Still, it is not possible for me to stock every single fabric available. If there is a color or type of fabric that you would like, please contact me for details.
Fabric Types -
There are pros and cons to any fabric used for tarps or hammocks. For instance, Membrane Silpoly is lighter than standard silnylon and silpoly, but does not have the tear strength. What some like in a fabrics, others dislike, so a lot of choice boils down to personal preference. I recommend using the various sites such as hammockforums.net or backpackinglight.com, where you have thousands of users that go into great detail about the differences between fabrics to research these choices and possibly even find a local gathering to see them in person.
Hammocks - I mainly carry ripstop nylons in various weights as the fabric of choice for hammocks. I can also get fabrics from Dutchware and RipstopbytheRoll for both hammocks and tarps.
Here is a current listing of the choices for hammocks that I stock and their widths. Widths are measure before hemming
Here at Simply Light, I specialize in customizing my products to meet your needs, as you will notice by the many options available in my listings. To that end, I do not "stock" items, but manufacture them at the time you submit your order. Most items will ship out within 24-48 hours, and if not, I will notify you of the expected ship date. If you are working under time constraints and need to put a rush on an order, please contact me, as in most instances, I can meet your deadline.

If you're looking for manga similar to Fairy Tail, you might like these titles. All recommendations are made by Anime-Planet users like you!
Long ago the infamous Gol D. Roger was the strongest and most powerful pirate on the seas. As he was about to be executed he revealed that he hid all of his wealth, including the legendary treasure known as One Piece, on an island at the end of the Grand Line - a treacherous and truly unpredictable sea. Monkey D. Luffy is a spirited, energetic and somewhat dim-witted young man with a very big dream: to find One Piece and become the Pirate King! However Luffy is no ordinary boy, as when he was younger he ate one of the Devil's Fruits and gained its power to become a Rubber Man. Now in this grand age of pirates Luffy sets out to gather a crew and sail to the most dangerous sea in the world so that he can fulfill his dream... and maybe even his appetite!

Fairy Tail and One Piece resemble each other in a lot of ways. They both focus heavily on friendship and how emotions for those you love can give that extra 10% you need to beat your opponent. One of the main characters in Fairy Tail, Natsu, also reminds me of Monkey D. Ruffy in a lot of sutuations. If you've only read one of them give the other one a try.
There characters are very similar and the plot and pacing can give you a feeling of deja vu at times.
Where are Fairy Tale and One Piece not similar. Luffy and Natsu both have remarkable power and take every challenge head on. They both are happy go-lucky guys who are optimistic about everything. When both mangas started out, both characters were without close friends but as the story went on, they gradually started to form a group of unbeatable friends with all sorts of powers.
Though the story's may differ, the atmosphere one gets from reading about how both Natsu and Luffy take on hardships is almost inspirational. The battles are intense and just freaking powerful. Each page is suspenseful in both mangas and everyone should jump aboard with Natsu and Luffy's adventure.
Aside from both being popular shounen manga, both One Piece and Fairy Tail are comedic adventure stories that are a bit wacky and good fun. Both Luffy and Natsu are very similar in their boundless confidence, massive appetite and slightly dim nature. If you like one, it's well worht trying the other.
Both male characters, Natsu and Luffy, are strong willed individuals who defy what people say and go beyond strangers expectations of them. They both love their friends and will protect them and they both are funny. All the other characters are funny and interesting to watch develop and both Fairy Tail and One Piece show the main characters building strength and getting stronger individually and as a whole. Both are about fighting bad guys too and neither are about simple humans, it's wizards or pirates.
Both have superpowers, good humour, sweet actions scenes,goofy main characters, interesting characters and a storyline that makes you want to see the end, while you don't want it to end at the same time
They are both highly stylized. They also both have fantastical fighting elemtents and a comedy style.
Because both main characters er funny, stupid and super loyal. And they both have amazing friends who help them on theire journey.
Fairy Tail and One Piece both include energetic characters that stick together to form a sort of family that isn't genetic. Each of the anime's characters use their unique abilities to fight and gain victories for different reasons. Both are funny, action, adventure, and enjoyable!
There's this uplifting feeling and ecxitement when you watch these animes. To think I started watching Fairy Tail on 2010 and still watching it, I think this anime will be the next generation of Naruto, Bleach and One Piece. If you want to experience magical adventure with strong and powerful characters, as well as having a tint of comedy and romance from time to time, I recommend these animes. When you decided to watch it, you'll never regret it. These animes are <3
Action filled episodes and loads of comedy.
The main character in both series may not have the best brain but solves the problems in better and even more spectaculary solutions.
They are very much alike in the way they group themselves to take on quests and epic adventures
They both include a unique fighting style, but the bonds between friends and the will to fight for them remain the same.
They are very similar in many ways. It would take a very long post to attach the similarities of the two anime series. I just thought I would reccommend it.
See you later space cowboy ;)
Three years ago, Siva, an adventurer specializing in using monsters fought a mighty Dragon Ape and managed to seal him in human form. In the present, Keel is travelling from place to place searching for Siva to force him to remove the seal keeping him trapped in his current state. Hoping to find some clues he approaches Ravi, another monster user, but when she informs him that Siva has been missing for the last two years, it seems that Keel's search may not be as easy as he had hoped. After discovering that with Ravi's magic, Keel is able to temporarily unlock his power and transform his right arm back to its natural state, they decide to form a party. Now, Keel, Ravi, her pig-devil companion Mippy and their new acquaintance, the magic warrior, Blue, are setting off on an adventure to find Siva and beat whatever monsters cross their path along the way.

Buster Keel! and Fairy Tale are a lot alike in the main characters. Natsu solves his problems with fists and that's just how Keel likes to do it. Keel is a monster type with a heated temper and can summon about a fourth of his powers in order to destroy the opponent. Natsu is similar in that he gets angry and can summons his power destroy the opponent. Both early on formed a group of friends with each others weakness as there strength. Though just like Natsu, Keel also has a friend-hate relationship with a person in his group.
Another resemblance is that the girls who join the group in each manga are very much alike. Their powers are similar and each has that happy attitude that we all love so much.
Action-packed manga with tons of enemies and fight scenes. If you haven't read these 2 manga yet, well then I think you should be doing that right now.
If your a fan of Fairy Tail or Buster Keel it is highly likely you'll love the other. Once reading a few chapters of either series striking similarites in the plot, characters and development, artwork and dialouge start to emerge.The comedy in both series are almost identical.
1. The strong-dragon-like-idiotic-hero meets pretty blond magic user and her cute companion.
2. The three embark on a journey and meet ice/water melee user.
3. Form party and the ARCH NEMISIS APPEARS.
Sound familiar? Both series follow to this plot outline, even down to the tatoo on the protagonist's arm.
Guaranteed, if you liked one series you'll love the other.
Buster keel Is VERY similar to Fairy Tail, so similar that I'm getting suspicious BK started off as a FT ripoff... I mean, the plot, the main character, the type of humor, the fights, the universe and even the artwork, everything feels very similar, if you can get pass those similarities and you're looking for similar adventures, look no further, you won't be dissapointed, but don't expect innovative plotlines.
Both stories are about a group of monster hunters. The group in each case has a very similar construction; A self-centered, very strong character with dragon related abilities, a similarly strong rival with ice/water capabilities, a beautiful girl, and a small mascot monster. The adventures, charaters, artwork, and overall atmosphere of both series are very much alike.
Once, the ninja village of Konohagakure was attacked by an evil nine-tailed fox spirit. This demon slaughtered many people until the leader of Konohagakure, the 4th Hokage, sacrificed his life to seal the fox inside a newborn child - Naruto Uzumaki. Now, twelve years later, Naruto is a member of the Ninja Academy; but due to his past Naruto is shunned by the rest of the village, and since he has no friends or family he plays the part of class idiot to get attention. However, he is determined to gain respect by becoming the next Hokage - the most powerful shinobi in the village. With his apparent lack of abilities, will Naruto be able to realize his goal through determination alone?

I agree
Do characters have auras? If so, the title character Naruto of (obviously) Naruto and lead character Natsu from Fairy Tail seem to have very nearly the same aura. Not personalities, mind you, though those are similar enough, but that indescribable quality that surrounds a person. Impossibly high energy, justice-seeking, loyal friends, somewhat stupid walking-disasters...yet somehow still loveable. If you can't get enough of that kind of guy, you won't get enough of Fairy Tail or Naruto.
as both have a very similar plotline of a boy trying to get stronger and be the best and protect his friends, it's a good suggestion for liking one for the other.
They are really exciting and fun to read. Along with their humor, great story lines, and amazing main characters, these are some of the best manga I have ever read.
they are both pretty similar in art style, both portray a bunch of characters for you to like all with their own personalities and special abilities, both have a time jump, both have a very loud out going main character, both feature a bunch of diffrent special powers, both are about fighting.
i could go on really.
In Elfenland, where monsters are a constant target of bounty hunters, live Aki, Touran, James and Mamii, a group of extremely powerful humanoid monsters known collectively as "Black Airs". Despite their desire to live in peace, with hefty prices on their heads and immense strength, Black Airs is a prime target for money-hungry humans and jealous monsters alike. With the likes of rebellion groups attempting to scout them and three-headed beasts seeking revenge, will Black Airs ever be able to live quietly in a world where humans and monsters coexist in harmony?

From the same Mangaka, these two adventure tales are very similar, I'd say too much alike. The concept is entirely the same in both mangas, the main characters are basically the same (a character that randomly strips down, a pet, a luffy-like main character, etc). The only difference is the universe the group of adventures are in. In Fairy Tail it's a world of Magicians and Monster Soul is a world of Monsters. In my opinion Monster Soul felt a bit too shallow and plotless so give it a go only if you want a fun quick read.
If you like Hiro Mashima's style then you'll enjoy both of these. Both manga are about a group of extremely powerful individuals who make up an infamous group. They also both share the same style of comedy and action.
Monster Soul is similar to Fairy Tail, while it may have something to do with the author being the same, both are about a group of friends that go up against the odds to fight for the justice they believe in.
Because it's awesome and Fairy Tail is the best manga ever. I think it's even better than One Piece and Naruto and even Rave Master(Which is another piece of master work of Hiro Mashima).
Haru Glory lives peacefully on Garage Island with his sister. One day, Haru fishes a strange dog-like creature named Plue out of the ocean, and soon after meets its master, an old man named Shiba. With this man comes terrible news: the world is in peril, for the evil organization Demon Card is attempting to conquer it with power-giving stones known as Dark Bring. To combat this threat Shiba has spent much of his life fighting back with Rave, a Holy Bring; and the Ten Commandments, a sword it powers. When members of Demon Card arrive at the island, Shiba discovers that Rave and the Ten Commandments will now only respond to Haru, making the young boy the new Rave Master. Armed with newfound power, Haru and Plue set forth to put a stop to Demon Card.

Big fan of Hiro Mashima's work, the creator of Rave Master, Fairy Tail, Monster Soul, and Monster Hunter Orage. The story are excellent, well enough to make you hooked or become a fan of Hiro. I admits that I am big fan of him, hard to not be a fan of him. Since his work are popular for reason. May not be the best, but still mighty interesting story. The art is another reason why I am a fan. All of his works has comdey, romances, drama, fantasy and most of all plenty of actions that most of people craves. So stop wasting your time on reading this, and start reading his work if you havn't done so.
These are pretty much identical. They were both made by Hiro Mashima, so it isn't surprising. The characters are so similar that I feel like I'm reading a continuation of either story. Plue even makes an appearance in Fairy Tail. Both are filled with action, so if you like one, you will like the other.
One of the most epic manga, ever. It's incredible how Hiro Mashima could create a so exciting characters that made the history of mangas. In fact, there are a lot of links of Rave also in Fairy Tail (like Plue).
Both mangas come from the same artist and have in many ways a very similar feeling when you read them not to mention that the main character and story develops in an interesting way.

Street lighting is the most ignored and the least efficient of urban services. It may appear ubiquitous but, in reality, public lighting in most cities is inadequate and has led to poor road safety conditions and loss of precious energy. Concerned by the bad quality of service and impelled by Justice Verma Committee's recommendations in the aftermath of the shameful Delhi rape to provide 'street lighting everywhere,' the Ministry of Urban Development recently sent an advisory to all States to strengthen public lighting in their cities. Infrastructure benchmarks recommend that local bodies should provide lights every 40 metres and the level of illumination has to be a minimum of 35 lux. Many cities may claim that they have adhered to these norms, but the truth is that a large number of street lights do not function properly. For instance, in Karnataka towns, about 30 per cent of the street lights are dysfunctional. The local bodies, which periodically survey and evaluate urban services, repeatedly and conspicuously fail to enumerate lighting facilities. But it is evident from the estimate of the high powered expert committee on urban infrastructure services that unmet demand for improved public lighting, valued at Rs.9,594 crore, persists.
Performance is another issue of concern. Street lights consume a total of 6,131 million kilowatt-hours in a year (Bureau of Energy Efficiency, 2007-08 figure) and about a quarter of this consumption could be easily reduced. Many cities continue to use Mercury and Sodium vapour lamps, which have a poor lamp life and relatively low luminous efficacy, defined as the rate of conversion of electrical power to light. On the other hand, Light Emitting Diode (LED) lamps have 50,000 hours of life and are highly efficient. For a given unit of power, LED lamps provide better light. By converting existing lights to LED lamps, cities can reduce energy use, expenditure and green house gas emissions. Choosing the right kind of lamp alone is not enough. The lighting system too needs innovation. Most local bodies use manual switching systems, which keep street lights on for a fixed time. Studies show that if such static systems are replaced by smart ones, which adjust operational time according to ambient lighting conditions, modify intensity during lean traffic and correct voltage, cities could save about 20 per cent in energy. Revamping street lighting and using LED lamps would entail higher capital cost, but the savings in terms of operational and maintenance expenditure would offset this quickly. What is more important is that efficiently lit streets would provide a safe environment and create a sustainable city.

South Shell Waterfront Park
The Parks and Open Space department is currently finalizing plans for the second phase of construction of South Shell Waterfront Park, which will include a washroom facility, a covered shade structure and a children's playground area.
The first phase of park development was completed in summer 2009 and included a 31-car parking lot constructed with permeable pavement, about 800 metres of paved trails, and the implementation of a naturalization program.
Final design permits and tendering for the second phase of development will take place in winter 2011 with construction beginning in spring 2012. The Engineering and Construction department will also install shoreline protection works in the eastern half of the park. Portions of the park may be inaccessible during some periods of construction.
For more details on shoreline protection work, contact Paul Allen, manager of design and construction, at 905-845-6601, ext. 4424 or email@example.com.
Download a map showing the location of South Shell Waterfront Park (pdf, 118 kB).
Project background
The town acquired a 1.36-hectare (3.35-acre) parcel of land immediately east of the Palm Place residential development as a result of an Ontario Municipal Board decision. This land parcel is linked to a 15-metre-wide strip of waterfront parkland, previously dedicated as a public walkway. With these acquisitions, an opportunity opened up to link the site to existing public parkland (South Shell Park - 0.8 hectares/1.9 acres), and privately-owned waterfront parkland (Petro-Canada Parkette - 0.6 hectares/1.6 acres) to the east.
In November 2007, Parks and Open Space staff took a report to the Community Services Committee recommending a park development program for linking these individual parcels into a waterfront park, and a public open house was held in February 2008.
Parks and Open Space staff has been working with the town's Legal department and Petro-Canada to ensure the public can access the lands owned by Petro-Canada. Discussions have also occurred with Halton Region regarding the landscape renewal of South Shell Park. Staff is also coordinating the park development plans with the town's Engineering and Construction department to conform with any planned changes on the south side of Lakeshore Road through the current Lakeshore Road Environmental Assessment.

I've gone back to HD. The audio seems OK now.
More Bode Miller, including an interview with Jimmy Roberts, who concludes that Miller is ''a different kind of cat.'' Nice to know that the Beat Generation lives. At least Roberts looks comfortable in the studio. Lampley is too stiff and formal.
And now ... a promo for a Shaun White piece. Didn't we already see him on ''Olympic Zone''?
Graphic says that coverage of the opening ceremonies is just 9 minutes away. Of course, the event is long since over.
Footage of White on his board as part of a larger piece on snowboarding. I confess to being impressed. But I had a hard time staying on a skateboard -- one of those skinny wooden ones with roller-skate wheels, no less.
Lampley is hyping the HD telecast of the Olympics. I'm here!

Travel's Best for 2014
Luxury hostels, Cuba, local brew pubs and the Jersey Shore – they're all reasons to pack your bags in 2014. See what hot destinations and travel trends are our favorites for 2014.
Best Wedding Destination -- Hawaii
Best Wedding Destination -- Hawaii"A perennial favorite, we predict even more couples will say "I do" in Hawaii now that gay marriage has been legalized there. For picture-perfect nuptials tie the knot in Maui at the romantic Grand Wailea resort or on the increasingly popular, but still less-developed Kauai." – Sara Gilliam, Interactive Producer 960 1280
Best Overall Travel Trend -- TV and Movies-Inspired Travel
Best Overall Travel Trend -- TV and Movies-Inspired TravelFrom Breaking Bad to Hunger Games: Catching Fire, TV and movies in 2013 moved us – from Albuquerque, NM, to Hawaii. Tourism boards are finding this is a great way to market a destination – targeting set-jetting fans wanting to follow the steps of their favorite characters on screen. We're predicting films such as Grace of Monaco,The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug, and cult-favorite shows like Games of Thrones will inspire even more fans to travel in 2014." – Kathleen Rellihan, Interactive Producer 960 1280
Best Travel Gadget -- Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 II
Best Travel Gadget -- Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 II"This Sony Cyber-shot point-and-shoot camera is the perfect substitute for the photog that does not like hauling around a bulky DSLR camera while on vacation. It's an update to 2013's model, which is still available, but offers some new features that are useful such as a tilt LCD screen and Wi-Fi so you can connect with your smartphone."– Arthur Hsu, Video Producer 960 1280
Best International Destination -- Trinidad, Cuba
Best International Destination -- Trinidad, Cuba"For the first time since the 1960s, flights have resumed from Key West to Havana -- thanks to the eased travel restrictions enacted by the Obama administration in 2011. And more travelers are expected to flock to the island nation next year to help Trinidad, Cuba, celebrate its 500th anniversary. This city is also where the rhythmic foundation of salsa music started. We recommend visitors take a comfortable pair of dancing shoes to experience the series of fiestas and cultural events hosted by this hot travel destination." – Kwin Mosby, Managing Producer 960 1280
Best Domestic Location -- Jersey Shore
Best Domestic Location -- Jersey Shore"What travel spot are we ready to see make a comeback? In 2014, New Jersey celebrates 350 unforgettable years of history, milestones and memories. This is the time to visit the Jersey Shores' beautiful beaches and boardwalks, which first broke ground in the US on the Jersey Shore in 1870. Enjoy an array of year-long events including restaurant week, concerts and more to commemorate 350 years!" – Rani Robinson, Managing Producer 960 1280
Best World Event -- Winter Olympics, Sochi
Best World Event -- Winter Olympics, Sochi"For the first time in history, the Winter Olympic Games will be held in Russia. From February 7 to February 23, fans will flock to northern Eurasia to see some of the world's greatest athletes compete against one another in an attempt to earn respect for their home countries; They're final destination: Sochi. Don't miss out on another amazing sporting event taking place in 2014, the FIFA World Cup in Brazil from June 12 to July 13." – Ben Breslerman, Interactive Producer 960 1280
Best Tourist Attraction -- Northern Lights
Best Tourist Attraction -- Northern Lights"Thought this past year was your best chance to see the northern lights? It's true, the lights whipped up a flurry of solar activity in 2013, but the best is yet to come, with show-stopping displays anticipated well into 2014. NASA is predicting the lights' solar activity will peak this winter, with aurora borealis displays stretching into the months to come, in places like Iceland's Lake Myvatn." -- Lisa Singh Interactive Producer 960 1280
Best Wellness Travel Trend – Yoga and Volunteer Vacations
Best Wellness Travel Trend – Yoga and Volunteer Vacations"In 2013, yoga vacations became increasingly popular to detox and decompress outside of yoga studios. And experts are forecasting that volunteer vacations will be on the rise in 2014. So what better way to recharge and support a good cause, than by combing a yoga and volunteer vacation? From volunteering in Kenya with the Africa Yoga Project to yoga and teaching in Kerala, India – there are more and more opportunities available for yoga-loving travelers who want to give back on a feel-good vacation. " -- Kathleen Rellihan, Interactive Producer 960 1280
Best Dining Trend – Local Brew Pubs
Best Dining Trend – Local Brew Pubs"Forget eating local, start drinking local! Whether you're into IPAs, wheat brews or ambers – craft brewing is definitely on the rise, and so are local brew pubs. These establishments offer a unique experience: see how and where the beer is brewed, get out of your comfort zone by sampling a tasting flight, and pair the beer of your choice with the perfect dish. On a recent trip to Asheville, NC, the "beer city," I was surprised by the quality of the beer, the food, and even the atmosphere at Wicked Weed Brewing." – Allee Sangiolo, Interactive Producer 960 1280
Best Hotel Trend – Upscale Hostels
Best Hotel Trend – Upscale Hostels"Forget all your preconceived notions about hostels. Budget travel gets a luxurious makeover with new upscale hostels like the MOXY in Berlin, Milan, London and Frankfurt, #bunk in Istanbul, and the Lisbon Lounge Hotel. Sharing space can be stylish with these hostels' chic rooms made for mingling and networking. Hostels are no longer just for the backpackers, but for the social and savvy budget-conscious traveler." –- Amanda DiGiondomenico, Interactive Producer 960 1280

Epcot at Walt Disney World, Orlando
Epcot at Walt Disney World, OrlandoTheme parks aren't just for kids, especially ones like Epcot at Walt Disney World. "While it has fun and thrilling attractions for the whole family, including Test Track, Mission: SPACE, Soarin', Spaceship Earth, etc., the real attractions at Epcot are the World Showcase's 11 countries, where you can sample food and drinks from Germany, Mexico, Norway, Canada, Japan, Italy, France...," says Alvey. In the fall, Epcot's World Showcase transforms into the International Food & Wine Festival, an event featuring food and drink samples from nearly 30 different countries. 960 1280
Aquaventure, Atlantis Paradise Island, Bahamas
Aquaventure, Atlantis Paradise Island, BahamasWhile the region's beautiful beaches might beckon you to the Bahamas, your kids will be in paradise at the largest water park in the Caribbean, Aquaventure at Atlantis. A free perk for overnight guests of the Atlantis resort, the water park has it all: a gentle lazy river, exciting rapid rides and multiple water slides that take guests on huge vertical drops, around 5-story corkscrews and along twisting water coasters. "Kids will love jungle-themed slides and fountains, as well as Splasher's, a Mayan-themed water playground that's perfect for the smallest guests," adds Gifford. 960 1280
Dollywood, Pigeon Forge, Tennessee
Dollywood, Pigeon Forge, TennesseeCalling all Dolly Parton and country music fans! Nestled in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains, Dollywood combines a family-fun atmosphere with down-home country music and fare, including a new lemonade stand featuring over 300 flavors. Kreischer says Dollywood is his favorite family-friendly park, and a perfect spot for a family reunion. Dollywood hosts 5 annual festivals in 2014, including the popular Barbeque & Bluegrass festival that pairs the best barbecue in the South with the biggest names in bluegrass (May 24 -June 8). Fair warning, don't expect to see Dolly here in person, but you can visit Dolly's Smoky Mountain Home, an attraction modeled after the country singer's childhood home. 960 1280
Noah's Ark, Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin
Noah's Ark, Wisconsin Dells, WisconsinWhen it comes to water parks, Kreischer's pick is Noah's Ark, the largest water park in the US located in Wisconsin Dells, WI, and for one simple reason: Scorpion's Tail! "This is a ride you have to ride multiple times just to figure out what is happening to your body. You start in a coffin-like capsule, then the floor drops out from underneath you, and you freefall for roughly 40 to 50 feet before you're flipped upside down and around in the high-speed, G pulling loop. Before you know it you're squirted out for the masses with a look of shock on your face as they giggle and see you try to figure out what just happened," says Kreischer, who rode this ride over 20 times the first day it opened. Don't miss trying to hang 10 on the park's newest attraction, Surfing Safari. Or for gentler rides, there's Bumper Boats and several lazy rivers to relax on in family-size tubes. 960 1280
Busch Gardens, Virginia
Busch Gardens, VirginiaDon't have the time or money to take the family to Europe? Head to Busch Gardens for a taste of the "Old World" culture in Williamsburg, VA, which features attractions like Escape from Pompeii, Loch Ness Monster and the 3-D ride, Europe in the Air. There's more here than just the coasters according to VanDis. "Whether you're here for the annual Busch Gardens Food & Wine Festival or just enjoying the food stands and eateries, the food is always amazing. I love the BBQ spot and I try to stop by every time I'm there," he says. Steve's all-time favorite coaster? Griffon. At over 200 feet high, it's still the fastest dive coaster in the world, reaching speeds over 70 mph. Just plan on eating after riding this one. 960 1280
Tokyo DisneySea, Japan
Tokyo DisneySea, Japan"There is nothing like Tokyo DisneySea anywhere else on the planet. The moment you step foot inside the park you are transported to another world unlike any other Disney park you've ever seen, with some of the best themed environments ever created," says Robb Alvey, theme park expert, Insane Coaster Wars.

As an agricultural area, Duchess County in New York's Hudson Valley has some of the most beautiful land you'll ever set your eyes on." – Samantha Brown, Travel Host 960 1280

This review is from: Mushkin Enhanced Atlas Series 240GB Mini-SATA (mSATA) MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) MKNSSDAT240GB-DX
Pros: I use this as my 2nd drive on my Lenovo T420s. Ordered it on March 28, 2013 through Newegg. The 1st drive is also SSD, but only 128GB. Got this pre-installed from Lenovo. Am using Win 7 Home Premium.
It's very fast. No complain about this.
Cons: Last night (June 10, 2013), suddenly I can't detect the drive anymore. Check through win explorer & BIOS, but no sign of the drive. I tried to detach the mSATA from the laptop & re-attached. But still nothing.
I'm not a heavy duty users. Am in panic coz I had my personal data there (mainly pictures & docs). I'm scratching my head now on how to go about this...

On accessories
One easy way to avoid animal print overkill is to introduce it to plain outfits by way of smart accessories.
Try changing your spots with Christopher Kane's cashmere mittens (£135, www.matchesfashion.com), or a leopard print scarf. They're a high-fashion hero piece with a heritage: American artist Stephen Sprouse designed a blown-up and cartoonish leopard print for Louis Vuitton in 2007 and the caramel splodges became a cult classic, slung around the necks of A-listers and the fashion pack alike and much copied on the high street. The classic Vuitton version is still available (£715, 020 7399 4050) and as classy as ever, but it is joined this season by acidic bright tiger prints at Mulberry and rich violet-indigo hues from Stefano Pilati at Yves Saint Laurent (£650, www.net-a-porter.com).
This season, the belt is key to any look: it should be narrow and fastened at waist height over cardigans and sweater dresses, with the end looped under the strap in a loose knot. And there are plenty of animal styles to choose from in everything from leather to Boden's strokable calfskin (£23.20, www.boden.co.uk).
On top
Nothing captures the imagination like an animal print coat – from Mrs Robinson to Bet Lynch, safari-spotted outerwear renders a woman modern and vivacious yet classically elegant. The trick is to get the proportions right. Longer lengths are best kept minimally styled – collarless, for example, and in wool or gabardine, rather than faux fur. The line should be simple and fitted, perhaps with a Fifties-esque nipped waist or swing detail.
Short jackets can be more daring – this is the place to introduce some fuzz, if that's your bag. Banish leopard print's naff associations with barmaids and working men's clubs: a faux fur jacket or chubbie can be dressed up for a bit of vintage glamour or down for latter-day grunge (jacket £120, French Connection, www.frenchconnection.com). Similarly, sweaters and cardigans are sturdy separates that mean you can invest in this trend without overhauling your entire wardrobe (jumper £220, D&G, www.my-wardrobe.com; cardigan £145, APC, www.net-a-porter.com). Make sure, though, that if you choose an animal print pelt to keep you warm all winter, you wear it in isolation. Don't go overboard with this trend – one layer is quite enough.
On your shoulder
Printed bags aren't just for the beach; they also work well with a dour winter wardrobe to add a bit of much-needed pizzazz. The latest batch of must-have Mulberry bags arrives in stores at the beginning of December, and what a bright prospect they are. Following on from autumn's hallucinogenic fluoro prints, they feature a bleached but vibrant tiger print in pink on white and come in favourite styles the Bayswater and the Alexa (£795, 020 7491 3900). Or there are clutches available almost everywhere on the high street ("Perfect for the party season!" is the advice from most of the fashion oracles), from Zara's roomy envelope clutch to Topshop's slouchy baguette style. Or slip the latter's compact mirror (£14, www.topshop. com) into your bag to add some grrr to the daily grind.
On your feet
What could be more charming, slapping through the urban slush, than Lanvin's leopard trainers (£425, www.brownsfashion.com)? They take some of the femme fatale out of animal print and inject a bit of fun. If you're after something more feminine, though, Stella McCartney's grey leopard heels are a good option (and with this eco-designer, you can be doubly sure no leopards were hurt in the making of these shoes), or New Look's ballet pumps (£16.99, www.newlook.com) are an excellent everyday choice to liven up your skinny jeans.
On the tiles
A party perennial, animal print is ideal for making a festive statement, and works across the spectrum from high-camp glamour to lo-fi elegance. Zara's skater dress (£69.99, www.zara.com) is a young and girlish option, while Project D's asymmetrically draped zebra print number (£210, www.my-wardrobe.com) would work well for a more formal cocktail party – with pared-down accessories, of course. This turquoise silk top by Joie (£175, www.matches fashion.com) is a gentler way of doing statement bright prints, teamed with black trousers and flats.

LANDOVER, Md. -- Kicker David Buehler missed his first field goal attempt as a pro.
He was wide right on a wide right on a 34-yard field goal attempt in the second quarter.
Now so much happened between the missed kick and the end of the game, but the Cowboys' 13-7 loss to the Washington Redskins might have had a different tone if the team had those extra three points.
"Missed it, no excuses, just can't do it," Buehler said. "I just pushed it. Just hung out there. I thought I hit it pretty well, but it tailed off and kept going."
In the preseason, Buehler made 10-of-11 field goal tries and was confident about going into the season.
It would appear the Cowboys would have Buehler on a short leash but owner/generla manager Jerry Jones said the team has no plans to replace him.
Wade Phillips said he was disappointed in Buehler missing the kick and would like for him to get another shot.
"It's unfortunate I didn't get another chance," Buehler said. "That's what I wanted but you know I got to make all my kicks."
