Reduce time spent in the kitchen preparing meals with the help of this 6-quart electric pressure cooker--it cuts cooking times up to 70-percent when compared to traditional stovetop cooking methods. The unit traps steam inside, which builds up pressure to create hotter temperatures, and its tight seal locks in heat, moisture, and flavor, as well as vitamins and minerals for exceptionally healthy, great-tasting meals like soup, chili, and other one-dish entrees. It also works well for cheesecake and custard, because dessert should never be left off the menu. The unit's push-button controls and easy-to-read digital display eliminate guesswork, while its precision digital thermostat regulates temperatures. Choose from preprogrammed settings for high- or low-pressure cooking, browning, simmering, sauteing, and warming. For safety, the cooker must be fully locked for pressure to build, and it will remain locked until the pressure inside drops to zero. Other highlights include a 99-minute timer with an LED countdown display, cool-touch side handles, and a nonstick cooking pot that cleans up easily by hand or in the dishwasher. A dishwasher-safe trivet also comes included. Housed in brushed stainless steel, the 1000-watt pressure cooker measures 12-1/5 by 12-1/5 by 13-1/5 inches.
You're about to experience a better, faster, and healthier way of cooking. Your Cuisinart Electric Pressure Cooker seals in steam to cook hotter and faster, and it seals in nutrients as well. Cook in less water and experience textures and tastes that are simply sensational. Features easy touch-button settings, a countdown timer, and a cooking pot big enough for a pot roast with all the fixings.
Your request will be processed within the next 24 hours.

Schoolboy Arrested in TalkTalk Probe Sues Google, Twitter
The Northern Ireland boy alleges the Internet companies and three national newspapers disclosed his identity.By Matthew Broersma A Northern Ireland schoolboy arrested in the TalkTalk data breach investigation has taken legal action against The Daily Telegraph, The Daily Mail and The Sun, as well as Google and Twitter, for alleged breach of privacy. The 15-year-old from County Antrim was arrested and released on bail last month by police investigating a highly publicized hack that compromised the personal details of TalkTalk customers. Identity Protection
Initially the legal action could not be reported, for fear of triggering further Internet searches, but restrictions were partially lifted by the High Court in Belfast on Friday after Google and Twitter took measures to protect the boy's identity.

On the Arrangement of Cliques in Chordal Graphs with Respect to the Cuts

* Final gross prices may vary according to local VAT.Get Access
A cut (A,B) (where B = V–A) in a graph G(V,E) is called internal, iff there exists a node x in A which is not adjacent to any node in B and there exists a node y ∈ B such that it is not adjacent to any node in A. In this paper, we present a theorem regarding the arrangement of cliques in a chordal graph with respect to its internal cuts. Our main result is that given any internal cut (A,B) in a chordal graph G, there exists a clique with κ(G) + 1 nodes (where κ(G) is the vertex connectivity of G) such that it is (approximately) bisected by the cut (A,B). In fact we give a stronger result: For any internal cut (A,B) of a chordal graph, for each i, 0 ≤ i ≤ κ(G) +1, there exists a clique K i such that |K i | = κ(G) + 1, |A ∩ K i | = i and |B ∩ K i | = κ(G) + 1 – i.
An immediate corollary of the above result is that the number of edges in any internal cut (of a chordal graph) should be Ω (k 2), where κ(G) = k. Prompted by this observation, we investigate the size of internal cuts in terms of the vertex connectivity of the chordal graphs. As a corollary, we show that in chordal graphs, if the edge connectivity is strictly less than the minimum degree, then the size of the mincut is at least \( \frac{\kappa(G)(\kappa (G)+1)}{2}\), where κ(G) denotes the vertex connectivity. In contrast, in a general graph the size of the mincut can be equal to κ(G). This result is tight.

Recent reviews
Outstanding 4.7 /5 from 58 reviews
The hotel itself is good, but I have to say it is overrated by a 4-star standard.
I stayed at this hotel for three nights while visiting Cappadocia. The hotel was recommended by a friend and certainly did not disappoint. The rooms are spacious and clean, and everything in Goreme is within walking or short driving distance. The hotel staff was very helpful in setting up airport transfers and hot air balloon rides with top local companies. The internet was not great, but good enough for our purposes. Will definitely be back here when returning to Cappadocia!
The staff at this hotel was excellent. The daytime manager was the friendliest and most helpful hotel employee ever! Location was walking distance to main town and rooms were nice for a boutique hotel.
Cannot fault this hotel in any way. This has to be one of the best hotels we have ever stayed in. The service and consideration from the hosting staff was outstanding. Thank you for a wonderful 2 days.
Simply superb little hotel, very personal service and great location. When we arrived we were told that our room was upgraded to a massive suite, with panoramic views of Goreme. The staff were very helpful, the breakfast was excellent. I was very impressed, will recommend to family and friends.

Whheee, a belated hello! :D
Yeah, it was One Piece... well I have never really been interested in watching One Piece so i guess thats why I did not know.
I change my top 5 every now and then too, there are way to many anime that are good to be able to keep the same 5 all the time.
Saved is going to change name to "want to watch". Sothis wanted it to be a place to save names of anime so we could remember them for the future, but so many people was confused about want it was for.
Rubber...pirate? Never heard of but it sounds fun ^^
Wacky stories with magic hm? I prefer serious stories with magic ^^
But I saw that you have not seen Shaman King, I belive you would really like it! It got lots of supernatural stuff, and a lot of comedy. But is still somewhat serious.

What People Are Saying About La Romana
The whole day from beginning to end was amazing. The
The staff was amazing especially Jerry and Chantel. They were so sweet and caring and fun. They kept asking how we were doing, especially when my girlfriend was not feeling well. They made us feel very welcome and took care of us the entire way. Jerry kept pouring us drinks the entire trip!
Great trip with great people, very professional and enjoyable
We are a family of 4 with two small children (aged 4 and 8) and had a lovely time during the Catalina excursion. It was organized very professionally. The first snorkel time was away from the shore but our children did extremely well and there were lots of fish so they loved it. The island itself is paradise! Many thanks to everyone for making it such a memorable trip!
Very fun staff, two gorgeous destinations
Skip crowded Saona island and take this catamaran from La Romana - first stop is the only reef worth snorkelling in the DR (just offshore from Isla Catalina) and then to a private beach on the uninhabited Isla Catalina itself. If you go to Saona you'll pay $40 round-trip just for the boat ride from Bayahibe. La Romana takes less time to get to than Bayahibe, and $80 on this tour gets you transport, snorkelling equipment (or pay more to scuba dive), plus a barbecue feast and unlimited beer, rum and soft drinks. Plus the staff are a blast.
Totally satisfied and I could not have been more appreciative!!
Where do I begin? First of all, I was travelling on my own to the Dominican Republic. I received quotes for transportation from many businesses to take me from La Romana Airport to Juan Dolio Beach. I chose Cocotours & I could not have made a better choice. Steve and Heather went way beyond my expectations of service. I was very apprehensive about travelling on my own which was odd because I have travelled to Europe many times on my own!! Steve and Heather answered all of my many questions of concern immediately. I felt as if they had put an umbrella of protection over me and Heather requested my arrival and departure particulars, which definitely impressed me. When I arrived at the La Romana Airport, my driver was there. Both of my drivers were extremely well-mannered & made me feel very much at ease. From my first introduction to Cocotours to my leaving the Dominican Republic, Steve and Heather watched over me. I would not hesitate for one second to recommend Cocotours.
Angenehme tagesaktivitaet organisiert durch ,family-owned company'
Have to dispell idea that Catalina Island is remote and quiet; has been quite heavily commercialised. ( expect to go there in 80 person boat, to join several other boats). The company organising is is family-owned with different generations working (family of Rhodesian/UK origin). They do their best to please. The lobster arrangement is nice, but dry and overcooked (not very professionally prepared).nSnorkeling is nice, yet not very spectacular. It is nice to be a day on and in the water but don't have high expectations.

Griffin Park is a football ground in Brentford, situated in the London Borough of Hounslow, west London. It has been the home ground of Championship side Brentford since it was built in 1904. The ground is situated in a predominantly residential area and is known for being the only English league football ground to have a pub on each corner. The ground gets its name from the griffin, featured in the logo of Fuller's Brewery, which at one point owned the orchard on which the stadium was built.

Planning, construction and opening[edit]
Between forming in 1889 and prior to 1904, Brentford played at five grounds around Ealing - Clifden Road, Benns Field, Shotters Field, Cross Road and Boston Park Cricket Ground.[1] In 1903, Fulham chairman Henry Norris (a prominent estate agent), Brentford manager Dick Molyneux and club president Edwin Underwood negotiated a 21-year lease at a peppercorn rent on an orchard along the Ealing Road (owned by local brewers Fuller, Smith and Turner), with the option to buy the freehold at a later date for £5,000.[2] After a gypsy camp was removed from the site, work began on building the ground in January 1904, under the guidance of architects Parr & Kates.[2] The orchard was cut down by local volunteers, who were allowed to keep the wood.[3]
The ground was initially built with a 20,000 capacity in mind, with a provision for an increase to 30,000-40,000.[3] An 800-capacity stand from Boston Park was rebuilt alongside the Braemar Road side of the ground, with an extension alongside taking the stand's capacity to 1,500.[3] Beneath and behind the stand were three dressing rooms (one for each team and one for officials), a number of offices and a recreation room.[3] The ground was named 'Griffin Park' after a nearby pub, The Griffin, which was owned by the Griffin Brewery and was used as dressing rooms and for accommodation.[4] After a number of trial games, Griffin Park was opened on 1 September 1904.[4] Season tickets for the 1904–05 season (priced between 10 shillings and one guinea) sold out.[3]
The first matches[edit]
The first competitive match to be played at Griffin Park was a Western League fixture versus Plymouth Argyle on 1 September 1904.[5] The Braemar Road grandstand had been completed by the time of the fixture, but as the dressing rooms were not ready, the players were forced to change at the public baths in Clifden Road.[5] The borough surveyor also declared the grandstand unsafe and banned its use until improvements had been made.[3] Argyle scored the first competitive goal at the ground through Fred Buck, but four minutes from the final whistle, Tommy Shanks converted a James Swarbrick cross to secure a 1–1 draw.[5] The attendance was estimated at between 4,000 and 5,000.[5]
The first truly first team fixture to be played at the ground was a Southern League First Division match on 3 September 1904, which yielded a 0–0 draw between Brentford and West Ham United.[5] The Bees would have to wait until 22 October 1904 for their first victory at the ground, a 2–0 win over Millwall.[5] The first Football League match to be played at the ground was on the opening day of the 1920–21 season, a 3–0 Third Division defeat to Exeter City.[6]
A new grandstand was constructed on the Braemar Road side of the ground using £5,000 of the money generated from Brentford's run to the fifth round of the FA Cup during the 1926–27 season,[3] replacing the 'cow shed'.[7] Unlike the old grandstand, the new stand ran the length of the pitch.[3] After the season, it was announced that Griffin Park would be completely redeveloped over the following decade.[3] Concrete terracing was installed at the Ealing Road end of the ground in 1930.[3] A new stand was constructed at the Brook Road end of the ground in the 1933 off-season and the New Road terrace was extended the following year to allow a further 5,000 supporters to be accommodated.[8] A further extension to the terracing and a roof was added prior to Brentford's debut First Division season in 1935–36, taking the New Road stand's capacity to 20,000.[8]
Little development occurred at Griffin Park between the mid-1930s and the mid-1980s.[3] The frontage of the Braemar Road stand was rebuilt in 1963, adding club offices and a club room.[9] Flats were built in a spare, matchday parking area behind the Ealing Road terrace in 1985 and the following year the Brook Road 'kop' was torn down and replaced by a two-tiered stand,[3] now colloquially known as the 'Wendy House'.[10] On the New Road side of the ground, the 1930s extension to the terrace was removed, with a new sheet metal wall added to the back of the stand.[3]
The pitch was moved a few metres to the west in 2006, in order to accommodate box goal nets and the following year, a roof was finally added to the Ealing Road terrace.[11] Numerous improvements were made after Brentford's promotion to the Championship in 2014, including resurfacing of access areas, extra CCTV, new signage, new heated seats in the dugouts and AstroTurf installed in the pitch-side run-off areas.[12] With the club placed in the Championship playoff places in January 2015, additional work was carried out on the New Road stand ahead of a deadline for submission of a report to the Premier League, which outlined development plans ahead of a potential promotion.[13]
Crowd disturbance[edit]
The only occasion on which Griffin Park has been closed due to crowd trouble was following a Third Division South match versus Brighton & Hove Albion on 12 September 1925.[14] Ill-feeling on the pitch sparked trouble on the terraces and following the referee's report, the FA closed the ground for 14 days.[14] The following home match against Crystal Palace was moved to Selhurst Park, where Brentford suffered a 2–0 defeat and dropped to bottom place in the Football League.[14]
Wartime bombing[edit]
Griffin Park was hit by two high-explosive bombs in 1940 and 1941, during the Second World War.[15] Six matches were abandoned or postponed during the Blitz.[16]
The "Great Fire of Brentford"[edit]
At 11:30 PM on 1 February 1983, a fire broke out in the Braemar Road Stand, possibly due to an electrical fault in the boiler room under the stand.[17] The fire quickly spread through the timber used in the construction of the stand.[3] 60 people were evacuated from homes nearby and an estimated £150,000 worth of damage was caused, including 800 seats, the away dressing room, the gymnasium, the kit store and the laundry.[3][17] It was after the reconstruction that the players' tunnel was moved to the western corner of the Braemar Road Stand, with the players having previously emerged from a tunnel at the half way line.[3]
"Fortress Griffin Park"[edit]
Brentford set an English football record when they won all 21 home games during the 1929–30 Third Division South season.[18] Despite the record (which still stands), the Bees finished as runners-up to Plymouth Argyle and failed to win promotion to Second Division.[19] Brentford finished the 2014 calendar year with the best home record in the Football League, winning 17 of 23 games (two more than the next-best tally) and accruing a 78% winning record.[20]
The club installed an electronic ticketing system on all turnstiles at Griffin Park in the summer of 2014.[21] Previously, supporters were able to pay on the turnstiles on match days for non-all-ticket matches.[21]
Stadium structure[edit]
When first opened, Griffin Park had no terracing and banks surrounded the pitch, covered with ashes.[2] A tiny stand was erected, which was initially refused a safety certificate.[2]
- Braemar Road Stand - A two-tiered all-seated stand located along the Braemar Road,[22] with the lower tier being known as 'the Paddock'.[23] The stand also houses the dressing rooms, supporters' bar and club offices.[24] The stand's forecourt houses the club shop and ticket office.[25] Until 2010, the dugouts were located in front of the stand.[26]
- New Road Stand - A single-tiered all-seated stand located along the New Road.[22] It is currently known as the Bill Axbey Stand, as a tribute to the club's oldest-ever supporter.[27] The away supporters' section was housed in the northwest corner of the stand until October 1991.[28] Previously a terrace, the stand was converted to seating in the summer of 1996.[1] The dugouts have been located in front of the stand since 2010 at the request of then-manager Andy Scott.[29][30] The central camera position for TV broadcasts of games is located in a gantry suspended from the roof of the stand.[31] The Family Section is located in blocks N506, N507 and N508.[21]
- Ealing Road Terrace - A single-tier terrace located at the Ealing Road end of the ground.[22] Previously uncovered, the club had an application to build a roof turned down in 2004,[32] with the terrace finally receiving a roof in 2007.[11] Traditionally a home end, the stand housed away supporters at various times throughout the 2000s.
- Brook Road Stand - A two-tiered stand with seating on the upper level and terracing on the lower level,[22] built in the mid-1980s to replace the Royal Oak Stand (Griffin Park's 'kop').[33] At varying times the stand has housed home supporters (1980s, 1990s–2001, 2007–present) or away supporters (1980s, 2001–2007) and because of its appearance is affectionately known as 'the Wendy House'.[34] Until 2004, a vane display scoreboard was mounted on the stand's facade.
Brentford was one of the first clubs to recognise the potential of floodlit football and in 1954, a sum of £5,345 was spent on erecting perimeter lights the length of the Braemar Road and New Road stands.[35] With the Football League banning competitive games under floodlights, a number of friendly matches were arranged to increase revenue, with one match against an International Managers XI attracting 21,600 spectators.[35] By the time the Football League's ban on competitive floodlit football was lifted in February 1956, the club had received over £10,000 in gate receipts from the friendly matches.[2] The original perimeter lights were replaced in August 1963 with pylons located at each corner of the ground,[35] at a cost of £17,000.[36] The current floodlight lamps on the pylons were purchased from West London neighbours Chelsea in 1983.[35] Electronic scoreboards have been attached to two of the pylons since 2004.[37] The floodlights were upgraded from 590 to 1000 lux during the 2015 off-season.[38]
- Record attendance (all competitions) - 38,678 versus Leicester City, FA Cup sixth round, 24 February 1949)
- Record attendance (Football League) - 38,535 versus Arsenal, First Division, 8 September 1938)
- Record average attendance in a season - 27,716 (1936–37, First Division)
- Highest attendance in division - 13,300 (1932–33, Third Division South), 11,738 (1971–72, Fourth Division)
Recent years[edit]
A 17,859 crowd, which attended a League Cup second round first leg match versus Liverpool on 5 October 1983, has not been bettered since.[39] As of 2014, Griffin Park has a capacity of 12,300. The highest attendance for a league match in recent seasons was 12,301 versus Fulham in the Championship on 30 April 2016.[40] FA Cup fourth and fifth round matches versus Sunderland and Southampton drew crowds of 11,698 and 11,720 in 2006 and 2005 respectively.[41][42]

Brentford hosted the Zambia and India international teams in pre-season friendly matches in 1994 and 2000 respectively.[2] Griffin Park hosted more FA Amateur Cup semi-finals than any other ground, with nine matches played between 1947 and 1974.[2]
- In 2002, London Broncos rugby league team moved to Griffin Park. The club stayed at Griffin Park until the 2006 season, when it was re-branded Harlequins Rugby League and moved to The Stoop. The Broncos had earlier played two Rugby League Championship matches at Griffin Park during the 1995–96 season.[2]
- Chelsea's reserve and youth teams played their home games at Griffin Park from the beginning of the 2007–08 season until the end of 2009–10.[44] This agreement included the upgrading of the home dressing rooms in 2007. The reserve team returned to Griffin Park for a number of fixtures during the 2012–13 season.[45]
- Rugby union club London Welsh considered moving to Griffin Park in 2012, but ultimately moved to the Kassam Stadium in Oxford.[46]
Other sports[edit]
The first ever paying event at Griffin Park was a sports meeting on 29 July 1904, which included a wrestling match.[47] Athletics, tennis and Gaelic football have also taken place at the ground.[47] The Heinz baseball team played at the ground in the late 1900s, gaining admittance to the National Baseball League of Great Britain and Ireland.[47]
Griffin Park is beneath the flightpath of London Heathrow Airport and the roofs of the New Road and Braemar Road stands are used as a large advertising space. The roofs of both stands have been used to advertise KLM, Ericsson, Infogrames and Qatar Airways.[48] The New Road Stand roof is currently sponsored by Matchbook, the club's official betting partner.[49] In the late 2000s, the Braemar Road stand was sponsored by water cooler business Refreshing Solutions.[50]
"A pub on every corner"[edit]
Until 2015, Griffin Park is well known in football circles for being the only football ground in England to have a pub on each corner.[51][52] The pubs are:
- The Griffin - Located at the corner of Braemar Road and Brook Road.[53] The interior and exterior of the pub was used as a location in the 2004 film Green Street and is also visible in the 1954 film The Rainbow Jacket.[54][55]
- The Princess Royal - Located at the corner of Braemar Road and Ealing Road.[56]
- The New Inn - Located at the corner of New Road and Ealing Road.[57]
- The Royal Oak - Located at the corner of New Road and Brook Road, closed in 2015.[58][59]
Appearances in media[edit]
Due to its convenient location in West London, Griffin Park has featured in a number of films, TV programmes and advertisements:
- The Winning Goal (film, 1920) - Footage was shot of a specially staged match between fictional teams Blacktown and Bichester, with both teams featuring 16 then-current international players.[60][61]
- The Great Game (film, 1954) - Scenes were shot in and around the ground and during matches.[60]
- Minder (The Long Ride Back to Scratchwood, TV, 1984) - The interior of the ground was used for football training scenes.[62]
- Standing Room Only (TV, 1991) - The interior of the ground was featured in a sketch, with an emphasis on two of the club's main sponsors at the time, KLM and Bollingmores Car Distributors.[60]
- Mike Bassett: Manager (TV, 2005) - Griffin Park doubled as the home ground of the series' fictitious team Wirral County. All Brentford-inscribed signs and notices were replaced around the ground with Wirral County equivalents.[63]
The original lease on the ground ran out in 1925, but the deal was kept on ice and the club became freeholders in April 1936.[1]
With Brentford in the Fourth Division and heavily in debt in the late 1960s, in March 1968 Jim Gregory (chairman of West London rivals Queens Park Rangers) offered £250,000 to buy the ground and move Queens Park Rangers to Griffin Park.[64] Former Brentford chairman Walter Wheatley stepped in and provided the club with a £69,000 loan.[64]
In 1998, then-chairman Ron Noades acquired the freehold of Griffin Park, through his company Griffin Park Stadium Limited.[65] With Noades declaring he would only fund the club until 2000,[66] the prospect of the sale of Griffin Park for development looked likely until 2006, when supporters' trust Bees United bought his majority shareholding.[67] Noades' loans to the club were repaid by current owner Matthew Benham in 2007.[67]
In August 1973, the Middlesex Chronicle reported that the club had submitted a bid to Hounslow Council to build a new ground and leisure complex on the site of Brentford Market.[68]
Brentford's hopes of moving to a new 20,000-capacity stadium were boosted in 2007 after the club was given an option to buy a 7.6-acre (31,000 m2) site at Lionel Road, less than a mile away from Griffin Park.[69] The project was halted in 2010 due to the economic downturn and partners Barratt Homes pulled out of the deal in January 2011.[69] In June 2012, the club bought the Lionel Road site from Barratt Homes.[70] Outline planning approval was given by the London Borough of Hounslow on 5 December 2013, with the Mayor of London's office giving their approval in February 2014.[71] Eric Pickles (Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government) gave final approval for the stadium on 14 March 2014 and a development agreement was signed with Willmott Dixon in December 2014.[72][73] The commencement of work on the site was held up through 2015 due to First Industrial Ltd (which owns the final parcel of land needed to begin development) objecting to a compulsory purchase order by Hounslow Council.[74] On 3 September 2015, Hounslow Council approved the building of 75 new homes on the site of Griffin Park, after the club moves out.[75] Hounslow Council completed the acquisition of the land in September 2016 and construction is expected to begin by spring 2017.[76][77]
Brentford's 5th-place finish in the Championship playoff places in the 2014–15 season raised questions about Griffin Park's suitability for Premier League football,[78] prior to the expected move to the Community Stadium in 2017.[13] Chief executive Mark Devlin explained that should improvements to Griffin Park to meet Premier League standards not be viable, Brentford would look to groundshare with another club in the vicinity.[78] As of May 2015, Stamford Bridge, Wembley Stadium and Twickenham Stoop have been ruled out as potential venues,[13] with West London neighbours Queens Park Rangers and Fulham refusing to comment.[79] In May 2015, it was revealed that it would cost £3 million to upgrade Griffin Park to meet Premier League specifications.[79]

text: 000 FXUS63 KLOT 190449 AFDLOT Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Chicago/Romeoville, IL 1049 PM CST Sat Feb 18 2017 .UPDATE... 918 PM CST Main update this evening was to increase cloud cover and include areas of Fog over the far southern CWA, mainly along and south of a line from Pontiac IL to Rensselaer IN. Short term guidance has been indicating the possibility for low stratus and fog, already present over central IL and IN, to spread northward overnight into early Sunday morning. Although confidence is low with trends tonight, several factors in place which could support expansion and northward movement of this stratus/fog. Boundary which has sagged south over the region is lingering in place, while southerly flow with mid/upper 40s dewpoints are in place ahead of it. So did increase cloud cover to at least make mention of partly cloudy skies, and have include areas of fog. Will need to monitor trends, as a more concern to keep an eye on will be for dense fog. If this were to move into the CWA tonight, it will likely persist through mid morning Sunday. Rodriguez && .SHORT TERM... 245 PM CST Through Sunday... Impressive, record-breaking warmth for mid-February continues, with top five all time February temperatures having been reached/tied today at Chicago and Rockford, including the second earliest 70 on record for Chicago. A lake breeze has developed but is hugging the lake shore as anticipated, with downtown Chicago presently 51 degrees. Wind speeds will be diminishing fairly quickly this evening enabling quicker radiational cooling than last night, but still a plenty mild evening for February. After lows in the mid to upper 30s, another quick rebound will occur on Sunday. Have gone above all guidance for non-lake adjacent areas with 925mb temperatures still near-record at 10C- 11C. Have highs near daily record levels again with mid to upper 60s for areas not near the lake. For the lakeside counties, Sunday looks to bring a more traditional lake breeze, which adds a challenge to the forecast and reduces certainty in this area. The lake breeze should progress through the lake adjacent counties by early to mid afternoon given experience with a surface high directly over the area and a stout temperature difference between land and marine layers. For immediate lakeside communities including downtown Chicago, temperatures are favored to remain in the 40s. For areas near O`Hare and Midway, we presently have the lake breeze pushing through in the early to mid afternoon, likely bringing a quick 10 degree drop or so after attaining forecast highs in the lower to mid 60s. MTF && .LONG TERM... 205 PM CST Sunday night through Saturday... The high amplitude upper level pattern will become more progressive by Sunday night as the axis of the upper ridges moves across the upper midwest with longwave troughing moving across the Rockies and over the western plains. Swly flow will persist though Monday as a cold front pushes across the plains. Unseasonably warm conditions will persist through much of next week. Low pressure is still expected to drop out of the northern rockies Sunday night and lift northeast across the northern plains and into south central Canada Monday. As the low continues to track northeast, an associated cold front will push across the region Monday night into early Tuesday morning. The longer range guidance has trended toward the slower solution indicated by previous ECMWF runs and the the general model consensus is for the the frontal passage to occur a little later than previously anticipated. However, there is little change to the going forecast as far as pcpn and temperature trends, with a swath of showers pushing into the Rockford area late Monday afternoon or early evening and then steadily spreading east Monday night and Tuesday. There should be sufficient forcing and instability along and ahead of the front to carry at least a slight chance for thunderstorms. However, the strongest forcing will be to the north of the wisconsin border while the strongest instability should be to the south, across the lower Mississippi and Ohio Valleys. Therefore, confidence is low in the coverage and timing of thunderstorms impacting the region. Highs in the 60s should continue through at least mid week. There is some potential for lake cooling impacting the max temps along the lake front, keeping temps close to the lake a little lower. Temperature trends will change little through early next week with highs in the lower to middle 60s across much of the area. Another southern stream system is expected to lift across the central plains Wednesday night and Thursday. The longer range guidance is in good agreement on the development and track of the system, there are characteristic timing differences between the GFS and ECMWF in the speed of the system. The GFS is the faster solution, which is fairly typical, while the ECMWF is trending 12-18 hours slower. Following the passage of this system, temperatures should trend back to closer to seasonal normal levels by late next week with lows in the middle 20s to around 30 F and highs in the middle to upper 30s. && .CLIMATE... 245 PM CST A highly anomalous warm stretch that has already broke daily records on Friday February 17th and Saturday February 18th will continue, with potential for more breaking of records. Here are daily records. Chicago: Rockford: High: High Min: High: High Min: 2/19: 65 (1930) 51 (1994) 63 (1930) 42 (1994) 2/20: 64 (1930) 49 (1930) 61 (1983) 46 (1930) 2/21: 67 (1930) 47 (1930) 64 (1930) 42 (1930) For more, including February warmth on consecutive days, see our web top news headline or Public Information Statement. && .AVIATION... For the 06Z TAFs... Aviation concerns remain few into Sunday as weak high pressure drifts east across the region. Light/variable winds (NNW if any particular direction) overnight will eventually turn to the east- southeast Sunday morning as the surface ridge moves east. Light easterly gradient and another unseasonably warm day will support an easterly lake breeze by early afternoon, moving into ORD/MDW by mid-late afternoon. Winds are expected to remain light east or southeast Sunday night. VRF conditions are expected to prevail into Sunday night, with only occasional patchy high clouds. South of the terminals (PNT- IKK-OXI southward), IFR/LIFR fog and low stratus is possible late tonight into Sunday morning, though this should remain well south of the northern IL/IN terminals. Gradual increase in low level moisture late Sunday night/toward Monday morning may result in development of some haze/fog toward the very end of ORD`s current 30 hour TAF. Ratzer && .MARINE... 205 PM CST A ridge of high pressure will build over the Upper Mississippi Valley and western Great Lakes tonight, allowing brisk west winds to diminish overnight and Sunday as the ridge axis moves across Lake Michigan. Winds should become somewhat light and variable on Sunday, but then shift to ely-sely through the day on Monday as low pressure lifts through the northern plains and into south central Canada. As the low continues to lift northeast, an associated cold front will sweep across the lake late Monday night and early Tuesday morning. Sely winds may increase to arnd 30kt ahead of the front and then shift to wly on Tuesday following the frontal passage. An extended period of generally southwest winds will set up over the lake through midweek as weak high pressure builds over the lower Mississippi Valley and into the Ohio Valley. Another low and associated cold front are expected to cross the lake by Thursday. A colder airmass associated with high pressure building out of Canada should spread into the western Great Lakes by Friday. && .LOT WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... IL...NONE. IN...NONE.

At school children begin to learn how to read, write and navigate their way around a computer from when they're three or four years old. This is a 21st century education. There's no denying that computer skills are now an integral part of the school system, and subsequently, a vital life skill. However, many people are still oblivious to the risks which the internet can pose.
At school children begin to learn how to read, write and navigate their way around a computer from when they're three or four years old. This is a 21st century education. There's no denying that computer skills are now an integral part of the school system, and subsequently, a vital life skill. However, many people are still oblivious to the risks which the internet can pose.
The internet is a largely faceless realm where people can take on any form behind the mask of a website or email address. There is a huge element of trust involved in internet interaction. People trust that their personal information and account details are going to be held in a safe and private database behind a firewall of antivirussecurity. Unfortunately, this doesn't always happen.
The amount of crime online is on the rise. Currently, cybercrime is estimated to cost the UK economy £27 billion a year. And it's no longer about just safeguarding your computer. The wide array of web accessible devices available on the market means that you have to protect your MacBook, smartphone and tablet amongst others.
A survey last year found that more than half of the UK population had been targeted by cyber criminals through online scams and spear-phishing tactics. This highlights the need for individuals to be assertive and take responsibility for the protection of their private devices. Installing high quality computer or mobile antivirus software is a necessary measure.
With the help of a £650 million investment, the government has pledged to make cyber-security a vital component of national security plans. Individuals, businesses and government institutions will all be a factor in government approaches to making internet use safer in coming years. A number of initiatives have already been introduced with the aim of improving public knowledge and understanding at all levels of society.
The IT curriculum in primary and secondary schools is undergoing a huge transformation, changing its tact to be more about security and coding on the internet. In terms of higher education, universities are starting to incorporate PhD studies on the internet with the aim of acquiring more research and knowledge on the topic. GCHQ, a key aspect of the UK's National Intelligence and Security machinery, is running apprenticeships to find and train cyber security experts of the future.
The Get Safe Online initiative is another way for the government to educate the population about safe internet practices. This web-based resource is the UK's leading source of facts and easy-to-understand information on online safety.
The government also part funds the national Cyber Security Challenge, which is currently a university-run competition which tests the best cyber-security minds in the country in a series of mathematical code tests. The Challenge's intention is to unearth extreme cyber talents who can help protect the nation from potentially destructive cyber-attacks.
In the latest cyber development, a government run site called the Cyber-Security Information Sharing Partnership (Cisp) is expected to be unveiled and will be used to build a database of information relating to cyber hacking attacks. Online security specialists, businesses and government officials will contribute to the site to help UK businesses protect themselves from hacking attacks.
Initiatives like these are a huge step towards making the UK a cyber-smart nation. But they are not a one-stop solution. Measures like these need to be continually updated and new ones need to be implemented to ensure the country's national cyber-security is as strong as it possibly can be. Any hole in the firewall could be a crack for a serious cyber-attack to break through.Reuse content

good movie/good comedy
on 5/3/2012
Men in Black is a very good action movie with a nice comedy. It is a really good movie to watch. I loved the cast and great acting by Jones and Will Smith. The Jones-Smith combo really clicked in this movie. The DVD version is good too. I definitely recommened this DVD to all.

Neuroimaging studies have identified ongoing neural tissue development throughout adolescence and early adulthood. Increases in myelination and white matter (WM) integrity along with decreases in gray matter (GM) cortical thickness (e.g., pruning) are thought to strengthen synaptic connections and allow for efficient communication between brain regions. Adolescents are at increased risk for engaging in substance use behaviors, and problematic use often begins to peak during this developmental time period. The relationship between WM microstructural integrity and GM cortical thickness is only beginning to be explored in adolescent populations, with cross sectional studies showing relationships between substance misuse and both macrostructural and microstructural neural tissue status. Research has shown a large neurobiological component to risk taking behaviors during adolescence, however the link between the biological underpinnings of risky behaviors has not been clearly defined. It is possible that indices of WM integrity and GM cortical thickness used in conjunction will help us understand the predictive validity of two commonly used structural imaging measurements, particularly their utility in predicting future adolescent substance use. Therefore, this study will utilize diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and structural magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI) to examine the influence of WM integrity and GM cortical thickness on real world risk taking behaviors such as drug and alcohol use, measured over a 36-month interval in adolescents ages 16-18 at baseline. If empirical support exists for WM integrity and GM cortical thickness as predictors of substance use behaviors, these measures may be used to help identify teens at risk for substance use disorders.
Understanding the brain features behind adolescent substance use will aid clinical assessment and help in design of prevention and intervention programs and strategies that limit risk taking opportunity and construct healthier outlets for teenagers. In the future, multi-domain risk taking assessment (e.g., brain imaging, personality) may be used to identify and guide high-risk teenagers, which could advantageously reduce disease transmission and costs to the healthcare and criminal justice system overall.

Question: How Much Do Contact Lenses Cost?

I'm considering contact lenses. How much do they cost?

Answer:

It is difficult to estimate how much you may have to spend on contact lenses because so many variables can affect the price. Optometrists determine their own fees for contact lenses, as well as for contact lens exams and follow-up visits. Some optometrists combine these fees into one price, so make sure you ask exactly what you're getting for your money. Most professional optometrists do not combine everything into one price, but rather clearly spell out and itemize what you are paying for. This is because vision plans and insurance companies pay for some of these services and the industry has become standardized for billing purposes.

Many different types of contact lenses are available today. Your optometrist will be able to determine the type of lenses that would be most beneficial to you. Typical prices of contact lenses vary depending on the type of lens and the prescription required.

To give you an idea of the range out there, here are some average contact lens prices taken from commercial opticals, online contact lens retailers and private doctors' offices.

 Daily Disposables: $55-95 per box (8 boxes/annual supply)

 Two-week Disposables: $25-$55 per box (8 boxes/annual supply)

 Two-week Toric (Astigmatism) Disposables: $50-65 per box (8 boxes/annual supply)

 Monthly Disposables: $45-85 per box (4 boxes/annual supply)

 Monthly Toric (Astigmatism) Disposables: $55-95 per box (4 boxes/annual supply)

 Conventional-Yearly Soft Lenses: $25-100 per lens (2 lenses/annual supply)

 Rigid Gas Permeable Lenses: $75-325 per lens (2 lenses/annual supply)

 Hybrid RGP/Soft Lenses: $250-500 per lens (4 lenses/annual supply)

Keep in mind that some or all of the contact lens fees may be covered under your insurance plan.

If you are considering ordering contact lenses online, pay particular attention to the shipping charges and volume discounts. Typically, prices are extremely competitive in private optometrists offices and they often have manufacture rebates that are not available online. Online retailers may have slightly lower prices but longer shipping periods (1 to 2 weeks, on average). It may also be more difficult to order custom-designed lenses online.

Federal law prohibits dispensing contact lenses without a valid prescription. Unfortunately, there are a few online contact lens retailers that sell contact lenses without a prescription. The Federal Trade Commission has recently shut down many of these illegal websites.

Remember that contact lenses are a safe and convenient correction option, but they are also medical devices that must be cared for properly in order to maintain healthy vision. Also, never swap lenses with anyone -- sharing contact lenses can cause infections and other serious eye problems.

ARLINGTON, Texas -- After forcing his way out of Boston because he wasn't playing enough, Jay Payton is making the most of his time in the Oakland Athletics lineup.
Payton helped keep a three-run deficit within reach by running into the left-field wall for the catch that ended the fourth inning. He began Oakland's comeback by leading off the fifth with a single that turned into the Athletics' first run. He capped his performance by driving in the go-ahead run in the eighth inning of a 6-4 victory over the Texas Rangers on Thursday night.
"I'm happy to be here, to be getting the opportunity to play games," Payton said. "I guess since I yelled to get out of Boston, I better do OK or else it's not going to look too good."
Payton's frustration over playing time led to a spat with manager Terry Francona and, ultimately, his trade to Oakland. With his second straight three-hit game, Payton is 9-for-23 (.391) with two home runs and five RBI in five games with the A's.
"He came in with the right attitude," Oakland manager Ken Macha said. "He's driving in runs, making great catches -- there's not much not to like."
He may have won over his teammates with his feats in the bottom of the fourth and top of the fifth.
Texas was up 3-0 -- with ace Kenny Rogers pitching what might be his last game for a while -- when Mark Teixeira drove a ball into the left-center gap with runners on second and third and two outs. Payton tracked it down and hung on as he slammed into the wall.
Rogers had retired eight straight batters since Payton singled in the second. Payton singled again and scored on Nick Swisher's double. Then Swisher narrowly scored on a play at the plate and the A's were within one.
"If that ball (Teixeira hit) falls in, they get two more runs and it's 5-0. Instead, we get two runs and it's 3-2, so that play was huge," Oakland starter Joe Blanton said.
Swisher drove in two more runs in the sixth to put the A's up 4-3. After Michael Young tied it for Texas, Payton chopped a ball through the left side of the infield off Kameron Loe (4-3) to put Oakland back in the lead for good. Bobby Kielty, who extended his hitting streak to 13 games, added an RBI single in the ninth.
Jay Witasick (1-0) pitched one scoreless inning for his first win since 2003. Huston Street got two outs for his third save in as many days, and his eighth in 12 chances this season.
The A's beat the Rangers for the fourth time in five meetings since the All-Star break. They've won 19 of their last 24, helping them open a 1½-game lead over Texas for second in the AL West. This win also improved the A's to 12-5 in their last 17 road games, which is significant because they were 1-16 in their previous 17 away from home.
Rogers is usually tough on Oakland, but he couldn't protect the lead this time. The question now for Texas is when will he pitch again.
He'll go before commissioner Bud Selig in Milwaukee on Friday to appeal his 20-game suspension for shoving two cameramen. If no decision is made by Monday, the Rangers could try starting Rogers that night on three days' rest, even though he threw 107 pitches Thursday.
However, even after Selig rules, the players association could drag things out longer by taking the case to an arbitrator over the fact Selig issued the penalty instead of baseball's head disciplinarian, Bob Watson.
In the Texas clubhouse Thursday night, the only concern was wasting their strong start.
"We had them on the ropes but couldn't deliver the big blow," manager Buck Showalter said.
The Rangers left someone on base each of the first seven innings, stranding 11 and going 2-for-13 with runners in scoring position in that span.
"It was one of those games where when it's over, you think back about the things that you could have done," Texas' David Dellucci said.
Alfonso Soriano tripled, doubled and singled in his first three at-bats, leaving him a homer shy of the cycle. He grounded out to the shortstop in the sixth and flew out to the edge of warning track in right-center in the ninth.
- A's leadoff man Jason Kendall beat out an infield hit in the ninth to end an 0-for-19 skid.
- Sandy Alomar Jr. laid down the Rangers' third sacrifice bunt of the season in the third. Going into Thursday night, Boston had the next-fewest with six and Washington led the majors with 58.
