"Why did you choose this product?"
Wonderful vacuum. Navigates around obstacles easily. Strong suction. I bought it mostly for hard floors as I have the Dyson upright. Vaccum looked brand new. Arrived with the wrong handle. Would not allow beater bar too turn off. Contacted Dyson and they sent a new handle. Arrived the next day. Very pleased with this purchase. Been a Dyson fan for years....

This works awesome. The engineering is great. AOK.Read More
Looks new to me and works great!
The current "Fantom" (Dyson's original product name) that I have had since 1999 finally gave up the ghost after all these years and even the last couple of years being held together with duct tape but I kept using it because it was a fantastic vacuum cleaner so I knew I wanted another Dyson. The price had got pretty spendy over the last decade as people came to realize how good Dyson vacuum cleaners are. When I saw this was a refurbished product for around 25% less I did not hesitate having bought many refurbished products in the past I figured it would be a safe bet. Sure enough it was. The product appears to be brand new but just doesn't come in a glossy box and what you are basically doing is not paying for the length of the warranty. Knowing Dyson quality I did not have a problem with this. I took it out of the box as soon as UPS dropped it off and the assembly was easy and the power on this unit is fantastic. Having a broken vacuum for a while now the rug really needed a cleaning and the DC 39 was up to the task. The power head has no motor and is air powered so it is light and nimble but it does a fantastic job. The bowl worked as expected and emptied with ease, much easier than the unit it is replacing. The tools provided are pretty sparse so I got the Car Cleaning kit which will work quite well with the included mini tangle free turbine tool for cleaning the furniture in the house too. This makes it have more attachments than the animal at $*** less cost. Now to go read the manual to find out what else this unit can do for me and how to properly maintain it. I would highly recommend this refurb product unless you feel more comfortable with a warranty. For me, I figure it won't break in that 18 month to 5 year period and if it does it probably won't cost what the warranty did to get the right parts.Read More
Dyson DC39 works great
I was very hesitant to buy a refurbished product, but this item arrived looking brand new. It has performed perfectly so far. I have subsequently purchased extra attachments from Dyson, and although they are pricey, I think they will be worth the investment. This is the best vacume I have ever owned. It really does what the advertisements claim, and it is lightweight, easily manueverable, and well engineered. Everything fits together and comes apart easily. The attachments snap on easily and do not fall off. I am not an enthusiastic housekeeper (I would prefer to do just about anything other than clean house) but this vacume makes cleaning my large area of tile floors and dusting so much easier that I already notice I don't hate doing these chores as much. The special turbo furniture cleaning attachment I purchased works amazingly well to remove the cat hair from my upholstered chairs and couches, plus blankets, quilts, etc.Read More

Best ever
I was a little iffy on purchasing a refurbished… But I figured that they would have done a great job checking everything out on the machine. Let me just say that this is by far the best vacuum I have ever owned or used. The sucking power is amazing! Two things I would change… an added on off switch on the handle instead of just the canister and A longer more narrow attachment which allows no restriction when reaching places like in cracks next to the fridge. Maybe they sell that separatelyRead More

Not all its cracked up to be
Worked great for a little while. Then it started to wear on the plastic head and began scratching up our new vinyl plank flooring! I was not pleased at all. I could no longer use it on the hard surfaces, only our carpets. The suction worked properly for a little over a year but now it will not spin the spinner with the suction. I have no idea what is wrong, but now its in the garage as a vacuum for our vehicles. Not impressed at all with this Dyson. It was my first Dyson purchase. I wouldn't recommend this vacuum if you have 2000 square feet or more to vacuum and definitely would not use it on hard flooring. Paying that much for a vacuum I would expect it to last more than 1.5 years.Read More

"Hello, Has this product been refurbished by Dyson?"
Hi lori, the original manufacturer or a professional outside firm repairs any defect on a Reconditioned or Refurbished item, returning the product to a like-new or almost-new condition. For more information on refurbished or reconditioned items please see the URL below. I hope this helps, thank you for shopping with us! https://help.overstock.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/31
Yes, the paper inside the box stated that it was.
Yes, it was MGR refurbished. Does not come in the original Dyson box (just a generic brown one) but owners manuals, etc were all packed in my unit. Minor scratches on the dustbin and ball unit (what would be common in a few weeks of use) were the only evidence of it being refurbished that I could see after I started using it.
"Does the refurbished product have the same dyson warranty ?"
Thank you for contacting us, rhay12. It depends, this specific ones comes with a 180 day manufacturer warranty. Please let us know if you have any further questions.
No. Products refurbished by Dyson do not have the same MFR warranty. Normally refurbished have a 6 month warranty and the seller may add to that in some cases with their "own" warranty support.
"Question about the trigger head tool. Another question on here is answered saying it is not included. Isn't the trigger head tool the main attachment? The one pictured? Bullet point 7 mentions the trigger head. Can some one please clear up what the trigger head is?"
Trigger Head tool refers to the head assembly. The Trigger Head tool can be easily turned off for cleaning hard surface floors (it turns the rotating brush off) and turned back on for cleaning carpet. It's so easy to switch back and forth that I don't have to pause while vacuuming. The unit comes with two additional attachments for cleaning. One is an extendable narrow cleaner with a soft bristle head and the other is a small vacuum-head shaped attachment. These will attach at the head, at the end of the "rod" and at the end of the nozzle, allowing for so many uses.
yes, its included

Out here, we don't have many scary stories or legends. I live in a quiet rural town with a population of about five hundred. But out here we do have a legend. Most believed it. I didn't until it happened…
I'm getting ahead of myself here. Let me explain. Goldfield is a small town away from all the hustle and bustle of big cities or even urban towns.
We have a gas station, a few shops, a sheriff's office (Occupancy 5 ) , an inn, and numerous farms. It's a happy-go-lucky town, but something lately had been taking down the town's population. Now, not killing, but people had inexplicably gone missing.
That's what leads us to our town's legend, the robin man. You see, in this town we don't have finches, crows (much to the farmers pleasure), or any other type of bird for that matter haven't shown up for about a year. Except we got robins. To anyone who passes through the town, it delights them to see so many happy birds, and they're never here long enough to notice that something is amiss.
The robin man legend hasn't been around long, I thought that some kids just made it up to scare the local populous into thinking that's where all the missing bodies go. Now I also gotta tell you about the forest around these parts. No one goes into them because of an "infestation of wolves". People haven't even gone hunting in them for years because they say the wolves drove all of the good game out.
But people also don't want to go there because they say it's the robin man's domain. People only started to believe that since a hunter came out stark raving mad, yelling and screaming about bodies stuck in the ground with just their heads sticking out, like worms after a rain storm.
Well he disappeared a few months ago, right out of his cabin. Only thing left were signs of a struggle, a few feathers and a dead robin that appeared to have died from a bullet wound.
That's how the robin man came about. They says he only comes after you if you hurt a robin or enter the forest, seems ol' Joe did both of those things.
Now back to what I was sayin. I didn't believe any of that nonsense. I thought one of them gangs from the city had moved in, or even a kidnapper, until I was driving one day and heard a small thump against the car. I stopped got out and saw that a robin had slammed itself right into the side of my Chevy, its small neck snapped. I didn't care much for the things, so I tossed it in the trash and drove on and finished my business for the day.
When I got home there were no sounds of robins like they're usually were, as if they were mourning their lost comrade. I went into my house and hunkered down by the fire. Soon it got dark and I stood to go to bed. But something strange happened. The robins started to chirp and tweet merrily. They never did this after dark. I walked out freezing. They were all over my driveway and in my fields. "Get out of here!" I yelled, running at them.
They just stared at me with them beady little eyes. I inhaled sharply as I heard footsteps advancing behind me, a sharp thwack echoed in my ears, and my vision went black. When I opened my eyes…My head was resting on leaves and underbrush, damn rickety porch must have finally collapsed and on me too…what rotten luck.
Something was wrong, there were no trees around my house. I lifted my head looking about. I was in a forest, I tried to move to get up. But I was stuck. Not only that, but upon further inspection I was stuck into the ground like a fencepost.
That's when I started believing in the robin man. I looked around and to my horror there were other bodies in the ground, most rotted but almost all identifiable. Mary from the general store, John from the next house over, all half decomposed or eaten by small animals. There ain't any damn wolves here or these bodies would be gone.
There was a movement in front of me and my head snapped forward, I saw him and my eyes widened, A tall man in a worn grayish green trench coat covered in feathers stuck by what seemed like blood, he had a few now more menacing robins sitting upon his shoulders and hat. He moved towards me, one perched on his hand, I noticed that its small neck was snapped.
He bent down setting the bird down, its beak looked…sharpened. Now that the man was closer I could see he had dark eyes..like a robin and a long pointy nose, his wrinkled lips curled into a smile as the robin thrust its beak into one of my eyes. I screamed and a whole horde of the creatures were upon me.
My vision black, I suffered unable to defend or escape.

Saint Peter, Metropolitan of Moscow and all Russia (Russian: Пётр; died on December 20, 1326) was the Russian metropolitan who moved his see from Vladimir to Moscow in 1325. Later he was proclaimed a patron saint of Moscow. In spite of the move, the office remained officially entitled "Metropolitan of Kiev and All Rus'" until the autocephalous election of St. Jonah in 1448.
Peter was born in Galicia–Volhynia. He founded a monastery on the Rata River, tributary to Western Bug, and became its abbot. In 1308 king Boleslaw-Yuri II of Galicia nominated and the Patriarch of Constantinople appointed Peter to the vacant see of Kiev and all Rus'. Mikhail Yaroslavich, Grand Prince of Vladimir and Tver, wanted to advance his own candidate for this position. Peter's nomination caused prolonged animosity between Mikhail and Peter to the point that the latter had to ask for protection from the Prince of Moscow in 1325.
Peter's alliance with Moscow helped assert his own authority and contributed to the rise of the House of Moscow. Peter transferred his metropolitan duties from depopulated Kiev to Vladimir and then to Moscow, where he received property estates. The move strengthened the political position of Moscow and established it as the spiritual capital of fragmented Russia.
After Peter's move to Moscow, the Cathedral of the Dormition and several other stone churches were built by Ivan Kalita in the Moscow Kremlin. The foundation of the Vysokopetrovsky Monastery in Moscow is ascribed to Peter. He also authored a few sermons and epistles. He is credited with painting a wonderworking icon of the Theotokos known as the Icon of the Mother of God of St Peter of Moscow (commemorated on August 24).
After his canonization by Metropolitan Alexis, his veneration was propagated all over Moscovy. Accordingly, many churches were dedicated to Peter the Metropolitan in Moscow and other cities of Russia. His feast day is celebrated on August 24 (the translation of his relics to the Dormition Cathedral in Moscow) and October 5 (in common with Metropolitans Jonah and Alexis)

Predator-induced plasticity in guppy (Poecilia reticulata) life history traits
- First Online:

- 282 Downloads
A number of invertebrates show predator-induced plasticity in life-history and morphological traits that are considered adaptive. Evidence is accumulating that vertebrates may also adjust their life-history traits in response to predators; however, some of the patterns of plasticity, which appear to be an adaptive response specifically to the risk of size-selective predation, may instead result from reduced foraging in response to predator presence. Here, we describe a study of predator-induced plasticity in guppies (Poecilia reticulata). We have predicted that the plastic response to cues from a small, gape-limited, natural predator of guppies, the killlifish (Rivulus hartii), would be the opposite of that caused by reduced food intake. We have found that male guppies increased their size at maturity, both length and mass, in response to the non-lethal presence of this predator. This pattern of plasticity is the opposite of that observed in response to reduced food intake, where male guppies reduce size at maturity. The increase in size at maturity that we observed would likely reduce predation on adult male guppies by this native predator because it is gape-limited and can only eat juvenile and small adult guppies. This size advantage would be important especially because male guppies grow very little after maturity. Therefore, the pattern of plasticity that we observed is likely adaptive. In contrast, female guppies showed no significant response in size at first parturition to the experimental manipulation; however, we did find evidence suggesting that females may produce more, smaller offspring in response to cues from this predator.

Hi All,
I'm having a weird issue.
I have a tomcat server listening on 443, and have hundreds of clients connecting to it from various different ISP's and routers including Sonicwalls.
One particular client however, cannot connect. They have a Sonicwall TZ210, and upon trying to access my web page, times out. Occasionally, I would find my IP in their Sonicwall's log as IPS dropped connection due to port scanning, with a time that coincides the time I tried accessing my server.
I've spent hours with Sonicwall trying to figure this out. They claim that either the ISP, or my server is changing the server's answer to the wrong port (because they see in the logs that the port scanning is from a port other than 443).
So I hooked up a regular low-end Linksys router, and I can then access my site. Sonicwall's take on this was "well the Linksys router doesn't care if the answer is to the wrong port" which is ridiculous.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I don't think its Port 443... Just could be part of the problem. Sonicwall by default blocks external DNS requests regardless if you put a rule in the sonicwall. Their answer was to help with the windows exploit. I had to buy a new router to get this resolved.. I bought the Cisco RV082 and my problem went away.. Sonicwall is great when you have new equipment installed, with older equipment they tend to treat you like an idiot and not help you if you had something new.. I happen to swear by Sonicwall, I have a NSA240 now, and the Cisco is at my house.. I had a Sonicwall Pro 200 at my house which is now used at my job as a backup router..
Anyway, I would check your rules and make sure everything is correct. If its not to hard. Backup your config, and reset the router and start over. sometimes the config can get corrupted and the best tech at sonicwall will be stumped.
Apr 2, 2012 at 3:44 UTC
I have found that if you use the packet monitoring for diagnostics it is very informative.
I have a different firewall so I am not sure if they have the same items in the same spots. I have the NSA220W
I have firmware 188.8.131.52-31o
System / Packet Monitor / Configure / monitor filter tab.
Enter ether type as IP, Source IP Address as the ip your interested. (OK)
Then click the Start capture button. Then try to reach the site / ip. Hit the refresh button to see the data.
The Packet Detail window on the bottom will give you reasons why it is dropped.
Use this link to find the code for the reason.
Apr 2, 2012 at 4:32 UTC
Thank you Island-CTO and Tim5147 for your quick responses.
I did check the rules, and so did the Sonicwall techs. You might be right with the corrupt settings, as that's what Sonicwall is asking me to do at this point. I don't have the authority to do so yet.
When I do a Packet Capture, and filter by Source IP, my IP, only packets sent to my IP (where my IP is the destination) appear. I don't see any packets in return being dropped or anything else.
Apr 2, 2012 at 4:49 UTC
I would set it for the ip of the Tomcat server and have the person try to reach that server. That should show you them trying to reach it and why it gets dropped. If they are getting as far as the firewall.
Apr 2, 2012 at 4:56 UTC
Of course, that is what I'm doing. But the packet capture only shows packets being sent to the Tomcat IP, but nothing in return from the Tomcat. I can also verify that I see traffic on the Tomcat's firewall being received and responded to.
Apr 2, 2012 at 7:01 UTC
In the packet capture, I started seeing a new entry.
The filter is on for Source IP - Tomacat IP, but it has lots of IPV6 UDP packets being dropped as unsupported.
Does it make sense to show IPV6 when I'm filtering for a IPV4 address?
Apr 16, 2012 at 3:55 UTC
I ended up replacing the Sonicwall. Oh well.

Daisy Haze – Meditative Milking (HARDCORE)
Released: February 21, 2015
Daisy Haze is a practitioner of many meditation techniques, and a student of the mystical art of tantric healing. When she sees that Jay Smooth is having trouble with erectile dysfunction, she senses that the problem is in his root chakra. Jay has no idea what she's talking about — he's never heard of 'chakras' — but he's willing to try anything. Daisy leads him to the massage table, where she begins a healing session with oils and crystals to open his body up and fill him with energy. Her big nipples are poking out through pink fishnets, and Jay can already feel the energy heading straight to the shaft of his dick. By the end of the session, Jay's energy is practically overflowing… right onto Daisy's shaved pussy!

The West Montrose Covered Bridge, spanning the Grand River, was built in 1881 and is Ontario's last remaining covered bridge. It's roof protects the large timbers and trusses from the elements, a reason the bridge is still standing after more than 130 years.
Light traffic crosses the bridge daily, including horses and buggies. Horses typically fear rushing water but as they approach this bridge they clip-clop through, reassured by its side walls and light at the end of the tunnel. The bridge was often referred to as "The Kissing Bridge", due to its soft light and enclosed walls providing a feeling of intimacy for the romantically inclined. This picturesque spot is only a short distance from St. Jacobs.

In early 1963, 122 Ontario hardware store owners met in Kitchener to begin forming a dealer–owned organization. In 1967 the resulting company was named Home Hardware Limited, initiating a Canada-wide network. Walter Hachborn, a founding member and driving force behind the Home Hardware success, lived his entire life in St Jacobs until his death in December 2016 at age 95. The site of the original store, once a tinsmith shop, is located on King Street St. Jacobs and today houses Home Furniture.

Originally, the Neutral Indians of Southwestern Ontario migrated from the south to the area of the Conestoga River. They primarily grew crops and supplemented their farming with fishing, hunting and gathering in the manner of their ancient traditions. During the early 1800s Mennonites from Pennsylvania began settling the area. A wave of new German immigrants soon followed. The village as we know it today began to take shape in the mid-1800s with the formation of a dam to power the Snider Flour Mill, a tannery, sawmill and other industries.

5 Artsy Things to Do in Metro Phoenix This Week
Herberger Theater art gallery's new art show is a smash.
Karen Carnow's Schmuck
"Crumpled, Dented, and Crushed"
"Crumpled, Dented, and Crushed" sounds like what happens to your car following a bad accident. This Herberger Theater Art Gallery exhibit isn't far removed from that concept, though there is limited car-related art (and what's there is perfectly wrecked). Mangled goods, so to speak, is the setting these 35 Arizona artists start from -- everything from photos of dilapidated houses to a toothpaste tube sans cap to a necklace made from a broken watch. And that just taps the surface of this mixed media showing. The lesson: just because something is "Crumpled, Dented, and Crushed" doesn't mean it lacks beauty.

Dan Hull brings storytelling to Lawn Gnome with Yarnball.
Gabriel King
Dan Hull runs around the Valley making storytelling happen. Surely he does other things, but the mere fact that he hosts Yarnball, a weekly storyfest at Lawn Gnome Publishing (as well as the monthly Storyline at Space 55), demonstrates his commitment of time, energy, and expertise. This week, Hull will wrangle performers who've responded to the prompt "cars."
Help marinate Phoenix in the spicy brew of live literature at 8 p.m. Wednesday, March 18, at 905 North Fifth Street. Admission is $5. The event is promoted as simultaneously all-ages and uncensored, which is so granola it feels as though the past (and current) 18 wars didn't happen. For more information, visit www.facebook.com/lawngnomepublishing or www.lawngnomepublishing.com. If you need to call the Gnome, call 602-682-5825. Julie Peterson

Floyd, Youkilis lead White Sox over JaysJul 8, 2012 - 2:12 AM
Floyd (7-8) tossed 7 2/3 scoreless frames, giving up four hits and two walks while striking out three en route to beating Toronto for the first time in his career.
"I'm trying to get in synch, trying to get a good tempo, I'm trying to make pitches" Floyd said. "Maybe I am a little quicker, maybe I should work on that. I try to go as I feel."
"That's the way he pitches," White Sox manager Robin Ventura said. "To keep you off balance and to get that ground ball when you need to."
Youkilis remained hot for the White Sox, delivering the decisive two-run bomb in the win. In 12 games with Chicago, Youkilis is hitting .311 with three homers and 13 RBI.
"It's hard to say you expect it," Ventura said. "But you like having guys on base and you like tough situations because he continues to find the right pitch and continues to battle."
Ricky Romero (8-4) was a hard-luck loser, giving up just the two runs on four hits and three walks. He struck out two, as the Blue Jays lost their third straight.
"I wasn't in control, and that's what you're looking for," Romero said. "I got in some jams, which I feel I hadn't done that in a long time."
The Jays struggled with the bats, failing to advance a runner past second base and only taking two at-bats with a runner in scoring position.
"We didn't have a whole lot of opportunities and when we did [Floyd] was able to induce a groundball double play on two occasions to shut anything off," Blue Jays manager John Farrell said.
The White Sox threatened Romero in the first and fourth innings, but the left- hander pitched out of a pair of jams. Chicago finally got to him in the fifth inning.
Alexei Ramirez started the inning with a base hit up the middle. After Romero retired Orlando Hudson and Alejandro De Aza, Youkilis clubbed a 1-1 fastball well over the center field fence to give Chicago a 2-0 lead.
Toronto put two men on with one out in the seventh when Edwin Encarnacion and Yunel Escobar singled. But Floyd induced an inning-ending double play off the bat of Rajai Davis to escape the jam.
Matt Thornton picked up a four-out save, striking out two in place of closer Addison Reed, who has pitched in the previous three games. It was Thornton's second save of the season.
With one out in the ninth, Jose Bautista hit a line drive to left field which Dayan Viciedo lost in the sun. However, Bautista tried to reach third base and a strong relay got him for the second out of the inning.
Game Notes
The White Sox have won five straight games and nine of their last 11...Chicago is now a season-high 10 games over .500...Floyd was 0-5 with a 7.26 earned run average in his career against Toronto coming into Saturday's game...White Sox starters own a 1.62 ERA over their last 10 home games...Chicago has won three straight games against opposing lefties...Floyd is 7-0 with a 1.36 ERA in eight starts in which the White Sox win...Romero was previously unbeaten against the White Sox, having gone 3-0 with a 3.62 ERA in four starts against Chicago coming into Saturday's game...The Blue Jays stranded four runners on base and the White Sox went 1-for-6 with runners in scoring position and left five on.

How to Hire a Contractor for...
Your home is one of the most important investments that you will make in your life. Planning and taking preventative measures will help to ensure a pleasant experience.
Interviewing & Selecting A Contractor
Just because a company has a bunch of employees, advertises all-the-time, or "has done 10 projects in your neighborhood" doesn't mean that they have quality service or are proficient at the trades. On the other hand, smaller companies are not necessarily more detail-oriented or faster to respond just because they have fewer customers. There are good large companies and good small companies. You must determine which is right for you.
What to Expect When You're Building a Home
Johnson City Area HBA understands that once you make the decision to build, you look forward with great anticipation to the date you can move into your new home! It is natural to want to see immediate and frequent progress, but it is important for you to have realistic expectations.
Beware Being Your Own Home Builder
Your home is likely the single largest investment you will make in your lifetime, and not hiring a professional home builder could be a costly mistake for many reasons - financial, emotional, and physical.

Michael Clarke is on track to play in next month's first Test against Pakistan, Cricket Australia says, despite its edict restricting him from running for at least a fortnight.
Clarke will travel to the United Arab Emirates at least a week early due to his lingering hamstring injury, as part of a new plan to combat the captain's trait of getting sore or injured after long-haul flights.
His reduced schedule will extend to the home summer, and will involve him missing some training sessions and probably one-day matches to reduce the prospect of getting injured.
"That's probably the thing we're going to try to change the most because a lot of the other risk factors we can't change," said team physiotherapist Alex Kountouris.
"He'll be there [in the UAE] well before he needs to be doing stuff over there."
Kountouris said Clarke would resume jogging this week, "but it will take another two or three weeks before we're really testing him at any sort of intensity".
"We don't think it's safe for him to be going any harder than he's going to be in the next couple of weeks, because tendons, unlike muscles, take a bit longer to heal ... and they're also more prone to recurrence.
"When someone has a tendon involvement in their injury we try and be a bit more conservative in their management."
While a three-week restriction would give Clarke only a fortnight of running before the first Test on October 22, Kountouris said the timeframes for Clarke to play the first Test were realistic.
"We're planning like he's not going to miss it, but he's not a sure thing to play it either," he said.
"There's never a good time for these things. If we wait for the second Test or the first one-dayer against South Africa, or whatever we wait for, it's a risk, but we're going to have to play him at some point."
Since the start of 2012, Clarke has suffered hamstring injuries on at least seven occasions.
Since February 2012, he has played in only half of Australia's 56 one-dayers.
Kountouris said team medical staff were increasingly convinced Clarke's hamstring problems were related to his degenerative back problems, but had yet to fully understand the link. They are seeking advice from experts in a bid to learn more.
Despite Clarke's unflattering one-day appearance record in recent years, he has only missed two Tests in the past eight years.
Until the latest injury, which emerged at the start of the one-day tri-series in Zimbabwe and flared in his only appearance in the series, Clarke had gone 17 months without a hamstring injury.
Hamstring injuries suffered by Michael Clarke since February 2012.
Feb 2012 (right leg): Missed two matches of home ODI tri-series v Sri Lanka and India
Feb 2012 (right leg): Returned, then missed another two matches of home ODI tri-series v Sri Lanka and India
Mar 2012 (left leg): Missed last match of home ODI tri-series v Sri Lanka and India, and five-match ODI series away to West Indies
Dec 2012 (right leg): Retired in 2nd innings of first Test v Sri Lanka at Hobart. Held place for next Test
Feb 2013 (right leg): Missed last match of home ODI series v West Indies, due to recurrence
Aug 2014 (left leg): Missed first two matches of ODI tri-series in Zimbabwe, which also featured South Africa
Aug 2014 (left leg): Injured in return match, missed last two matches of ODI tri-series in Zimbabwe.

Next Level Games is an independent video game developer based in Vancouver. The company worked on an untitled Metroid game presumably for the Nintendo 3DS, but it was shelved in favor of Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon.[1] They did develop and release a spinoff of Metroid, Metroid Prime: Federation Force, which was marred by controversy before and after release due to its extreme departure from the traditional Metroid series. The game is not mentioned anywhere on the company website.

Without the doctor ever seeing me, without getting results of a stress and other coronary tests and without my initial consent, I was automatically scheduled for exploratory surgery. The doctor reluctantly came to see me after I refused the surgery. Although I was told I had abnormal results from one of the tests, I was found to be ok.

Avoid at all costs!!!
If I could give Dr. Cigarroa a Negative rating, I would! This man is abusing the system and defrauding the insurance & medicare systems! Admitted my mom via the ER for a urinary tract infection and NEVER stepped foot in her hospital room after six days!!!! Yet he scheduled her for a pacemaker! He told my mother before putting her in the hospital that she had a 95% blockage in one of her coronary arteries. I called Dr. Cigarroa's office and they were rude and acted like they were being bothered to take the phone call. Dr. Cigarroa's PA is rude and doesn't listen to the patient or ask how they are feeling. We got mom a different cardiologist and he found NO blockage after taking mom to the Cardiac Cath lab! A pacemaker treats an arrhythmia, NOT a blockage! AVOID AT ALL COSTS! I would not take my dog to this doctor!

We are very disappointed by this so called Dr. My mother has always been hypertensive since early 90. We had confident on this Dr he had changed my mothers medication to a lower dose so her blood pressure was sky high when we took her to ER he told the nurse to send her to his office when we showed up to my surprise he had left the office and we had to wait for 2 hours. My sister and I were concerned and wanted to talk to the Dr his so called office manager told us only one person per patient we were agitated. My sister allowed for me to go in with her for my surprise he walks in and practically kicked us out knowingly how mother was and told us to go out and find another Dr. That he did not care if it was an emergency that if we did not like his staff then for us to get out. He did not check my mother like the way he was suppose to do well he can shove his staff and keep them, but we took another step right away and found her a very good Dr that knows how to respect his patients and took care of my mother so no I do not recommend this Dr to nobody.

I was disappointed with the doctors behavior. My mother had an elevated blood pressure. His staff informed her to come in from out of town to ER. When she arrived ER staff contacted the doctor and he requested that we take her to his office. Upon arrival to his office. The staff was rude and informed us to wait because he was not available. 2 hours later she was called in. As we were walking my mother, we were informed by the staff one individual was allowed to in with my mother. I requested to speak to the doctor then he come big bully that referred to himself as office manager. We have policies in place and that's final. To my surprise the doctor walked in yelling at my mother and told her to leave and find another doctor. He did not provide any immediate assistance. He forced my mother to make a decision if he wanted her to continue to be her doctor or leave. Now we understand all the comments that we have heard from his previous patients are true after all. I would never recommend him as a dependable cardiologist.

So long as you never need to be an inpatient in the hospital, you might feel Dr. Cigarroa was deeply caring. He was treating my elderly mother and when she was admitted under his care on a Friday, we thought he would be in to see her at least by Monday. SIX DAYS later, he had still not stepped into her hospital room! His PA did, but even that was a bad experience in that he really comes across as uncaring and wants to leave as soon as possible!

The best care received.
Dr R Cigarroa and his staff have always taken very good care of me and my family. I recently had to have renal artery angioplasty and stenting at Laredo Medical Center. It was a complete success. He saved my kidney. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr Ricardo Cigarroa to anyone.

You can ignore my review or you can waste two minutes just reading how put off by his staff alone to make think twice about seeing him. Rude and full of it. Replace your staff and you might have an improvement with the ratings.

My wife's aunt was under his care and had a heart implant done on her a couple of years back only to find out her on flesh had ground around it and could be taken out or replaced instead he referred her to San Antonio to do what he was trained and studied for. She died. If your going to do this process to your loved ones take them to San Antonio instead. You might keep your loved one a little longer.

As human rights issues in our industry become more complex, we are taking a proactive approach to protecting the rights, dignity and livelihoods of the nearly one million workers in our supply chain. Our Chief Risk Officer holds overall responsibility for our factory assessment program, which is central to managing risks in our supply chain and addressing any human rights violations. At the core of our approach is partnering with suppliers to improve performance, in line with A Shared Commitment.
We evolved our global human rights program in 2014, bringing operational excellence and increased consistency to the way we source our products and monitor supplier performance. In 2015, we took our program to the next level with three key initiatives: strengthening our supplier partnerships, driving operational excellence and moving beyond compliance by enhancing our remediation and capacity-building. In this way, we aim to achieve a lasting impact for workers in our supply chain and industry. Our efforts were recognized on the 2015 Corporate Responsibility Magazine "100 Best Corporate Citizens List," with the #2 ranking in the Human Rights category.
Our factory assessment is the first step on a journey to achieve continuous improvement with our suppliers. Our CR assessors evaluate finished good factories with ratings based on a traffic light-like system. The rating feeds into our sourcing decisions and determines how regularly we conduct subsequent assessments. High-rated factories receive "green" or "yellow" ratings. An "orange" rating indicates that action is required to help the supplier improve, while the "red" rating results in termination of the business relationship with the factory through a responsible exit.
Throughout the assessment process, we look beyond typical auditing by partnering with our suppliers to address shared goals. We share our expectations at the outset, giving factory managers the opportunity to ask questions. We then conduct a thorough check of the factory's data management systems, inspect every area of the factory and seek workers' views in confidence. Finally, we present our findings to the managers and, together, review them. We encourage an open discussion and collaborate to determine how the factory will resolve any issues.
We are increasingly working with our suppliers to help them build systems to better and more effectively manage human rights and environmental risks within their factories. In 2015, we worked hand-in-hand with suppliers to resolve pressing issues, conducting over 2,150 factory assessments and visiting approximately 1,400 factories outside of the usual assessment process to share practical strategies to improve working conditions and employment practices. Additionally, we delivered over 160 sessions and 49,575 hours of training to approximately 7,525 internal and external partners to promote change, covering topics such as fire safety, human rights implementation, worker-management relations, chemical management, assessment practices and data management.
In particular, our CR and sourcing teams collaborated with suppliers to explore the reasons why issues occur, including the role of purchasing practices. These efforts are informing our thinking on responsible purchasing, as we begin to help associates understand how forecasting and timing of order placement impact suppliers' production capabilities, and in turn, the workers who make our products.
In order to help our suppliers make lasting improvements that go beyond responding to assessment feedback, we have enhanced our capacity-building program, as follows:
We are also piloting a number of social impact programs to enhance workers' quality of life, including initiatives to support worker health in Vietnam and provide professional skills training for workers in China. We will expand and integrate successful programs in the coming years.
To support these efforts, our internal CR assessors will help develop and strengthen suppliers' skills and knowledge by evolving their approach. For example, assessors are now making follow-up visits to help suppliers implement remediation activities identified in their CAPs and following up with a more regular and mandatory cadence. The information we gain will further inform our discussions on responsible purchasing practices.
We continuously aim to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of our assessment programs. To better monitor supplier performance, we rolled out a new data management system globally and evaluated opportunities to further improve our assessment tool, seeking feedback from key stakeholders such as the FLA. We are now testing new features through two pilot programs:
We are proud of what we accomplished in 2015. We know that moving beyond compliance is a journey requiring ongoing commitment, and we realize there is a long way to go. In 2016, we will continue to refine our assessment program, by incorporating more environmental criteria into our assessment tool, conducting a mapping of our level 2 suppliers (including mills, dye houses and trim suppliers) and starting to pilot assessments with these suppliers in partnership with our Global Supply Chain team. We will empower our suppliers by providing practical remediation strategies, piloting elements of our capacity-building program and expanding the most promising social impact pilots. Additionally, we will participate in the Social and Labor Convergence Pilot, an initiative facilitated by the SAC that seeks to bring together brand owners, manufacturers, civil society and other stakeholders to create a unified approach to social and labor assessments. We are also starting to address the complex issue of fair and living wages in partnership with the FLA, and plan to launch a fair compensation plan by the end of 2017.

In Sri Lanka, we partner with "best-in-class" factories that are leading the field in lean manufacturing and sustainable practices. These suppliers are among the first in our Gold Program, which recognizes suppliers who take ownership over identifying and remediating issues in their factories. For example, one supplier constructed the world's first purpose-built factory certified Platinum by Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design ("LEED") – the highest rating from the most widely used third-party verification for green buildings. It is also helping its largely female workforce develop new skills to advance their careers. Another supplier generates wind and hydroelectric power on-site, sharing the excess with Sri Lanka's national grid. Its flagship factory uses 48% less energy and 70% less water compared to a conventional facility. It also contributes to the surrounding community by investing in local health services and schools. We are proud to work with suppliers who share our integrated CR approach and look forward to strengthening and building similar partnerships in the future.
We are piloting a number of social impact projects in our supply chain that have benefits into the surrounding communities beyond our direct operations. One example is an FLA initiative to better understand and prevent child labor in Turkey's cotton industry. This is an area of growing concern as more Syrian refugees seek employment in the country. We are engaging with two suppliers in Turkey to gain improved visibility of their labor practices, raise awareness of the issue and support them in requesting information from their raw material suppliers. Together with the FLA and other participating brand owners, we seek to increase transparency through collective action and make a difference in the industry's practices. The knowledge we gain will also inform our buying decisions and remediation strategies. We plan to continue testing social impact programs and expand on the initiatives that yield the greatest impact.

|Raia Ashtear
|Chains of Fate, Lena Andreia
|Medina (2400 AD)
Raia Ashtear is a playable character in Chrono Crisis. The character was originally called Lutania Ashtear but was renamed to avoid confusion with Lucca (her ancestor) and Luccia.
Description Edit
- "Raia is a scientist and elite soldier working with Rising Gaia. She's unique in that she is one of the few humans in the organization.
- Raia is incredibly intelligent, and daring to an almost suicidal level. She seems to enjoy the rush of running at a group of armed soldiers only to completely decimate them with her weapons. She's an expert at improvising, often depending on her personal computer companion, Blazer, to ensnare her enemies.
- Raia seems to have a rough past, though she refuses to talk about it. It's no secret that the Central Regime apparently took someone important to her, though...
- Raia is a cyber warrior, her body augmented with robotics. She fights with a pair of remote laser orbs that are controlled by her upgraded SAIH processor. Her reflexes are also boosted due to her implants, which allows her to pull off amazing feats of strength and agility.
- Because Raia's body has been augmented so much, she is unable to use magic. Her attacks are all speed based, and her HP tends to be a little on the low side. However, she gets a large number of attacks due to her speed and stamina."

By Michael Norman; Michael Norman is a former New York Times re porter and the author of ''These Good Men: Friendship Forged From War,'' to be published by Crown next January.
Published: October 1, 1989
ON A BRIGHT MID-SUMMER Wednesday, on the south side of Sunset Boulevard, off La Cienega, Arsenio Hall, the latest prince in the late-night realm where Johnny Carson is king, got a towering present: a billboard with a picture of him sprawled like a diva on a couch, smiling the smile of a Cheshire cat. The massive panel, a gift from his studio for the success of his nationally syndicated talk and variety program, carried a simple, almost understated legend: ''The Arsenio Hall Show: Late Night Cool.''
But most people in the business of television clearly heard the crowing. Hall's ratings had been astonishing; one of his rivals had been staggered, and his show, less than seven months on the air, had that very week been nominated for three Emmy awards. Anything seemed possible, even, though no one dared say it, a run at No. 1, the eminentissimo of after hours, Johnny Carson himself.
That month, in fact, ''The Arsenio Hall Show,'' which is seen on 175 stations -among them, 75 network affiliates - and reaches 95 percent of the television households in the United States, had received higher average monthly ratings than Carson's ''Tonight Show'' in nine of the top 30 markets in the country, including New York, the largest.
Not far from the billboard, down the sweep of hill to Melrose Avenue, then west to the sprawling cream-colored lot of the Paramount Pictures Corporation, the 46 or so people responsible for producing late-night cool were ecstatic. New stations were begging to get on line; reporters were queued up for interviews, and everyone on staff, from the brooding writers to the chatty makeup artists, was looking for a long run.
So why was the star, now, at dusk, hunkered over a plate of fettuccine in a chic Los Angeles restaurant, in an outright snit? The show that night, the always spirited, often raucous on-air ''party'' that takes place each weekday evening for an hour on Stage 29, had gone well. Ron Howard, actor and director, told touching stories of his father, then Jody Watley delivered her pop single ''Friends.'' But afterward, as the host slipped into a blue convertible beside his fair, red-haired publicity agent, Dana Freedman, he looked grim. And now, at the table, Arsenio Hall launched into a long, rambling reproach of all the critics and industry executives who had ever doubted him.
''Why were they pulling so hard for Pat Sajak to succeed, instead of me? Why?'' he asks rhetorically. ''Is it because I'm black?
Because I'm syndicated and not network? What made them say I didn't have the guns, that America wouldn't watch me? They nailed me to the side of a wall because I wasn't like their heroes, Merv Griffin and Johnny and Dave Letterman. All I heard about was how black I was. I was having people here in Hollywood tell me, 'Be careful. Don't be too black.' What the hell is too black? Let's chill with this color bull. No one told Johnny not to be too white for the brothers in Detroit. I'm gonna be me.''
It seemed a strange performance from such a genuinely funny and engaging man. From the reports of those who know him well, he is rarely so bilious. Then comes some light. That afternoon, according to Hall, an established actor who was scheduled to appear on his show begged for an alternate date because he had been told by NBC that if he, in Hall's words, ''did my show first,'' he would not be welcomed on ''The Tonight Show.'' Spokesmen for the actor and NBC said that was ''preposterous,'' that a booking agent had made a mistake. But Hall could not be convinced otherwise, and all through the fettuccine and into the soft-shelled crabs his choler was rising.
''My response,'' Hall said, ''was, 'Just do the other show and get out of my face.' Fortunately, I have a staff of people who translated my comment into Hollywood language.''
Many in the business of late-night television, Hall included, dismiss the idea that the four late-night talk-show hosts - Carson, Hall, Letterman, Sajak -are fighting for ratings. The market, they insist, is broad and diverse enough to guarantee an audience, and thus a profit, for each. But this reasoned collegiality aside, television's nocturnal natterers are clearly at war, joined in a battle of billboards, booking agents, audience numbers and advertising revenues. And the man gaining the most ground, the man whose advance has gone almost unchecked since his premiere in January, is - sharp swings of mood notwithstanding - more than just satisfied with success. He is filled with the wonder of a dream.
ARSENIO HALL TOOK TRADI-tion and gave it a spin. The other late-night talk-show hosts have a desk, a band, an audience. He has an easy chair, a ''posse'' of five musician-sidekicks and a studio crowd he calls ''my people,'' an ever-changing but always staunch gathering of 318 nearly riotous men and women - black and white, from graying grandmothers with knitting in their laps to tall, muscular teen-agers with acorn haircuts -who line up early outside Studio 29 every weekday, then, just before airtime, fill a slope of red seats and scream, yell, bark and pump their arms in the air at the host's slightest urging. (The effect of all this is to create an atmosphere so charged it is palpable even through the flat filter of television.) But what really distinguishes ''The Arsenio Hall Show'' from its counterparts is the host himself, or, rather, the on-air persona - often irreverent, sometimes slightly naughty, always hip - that Hall, who gives his age as 30, has created for millions of viewers to see.
