A bowel cancer screening test is recommended every 2 years for those between 50-74 years of age. The test, also known as a faecal occult blood test or FOBT, is sent to you in the mail. It looks for tiny amounts of blood in your bowel motions (poo), which might be coming from a bleeding bowel polyp or early cancer.
The test sample is collected by you in your own home. It's non-invasive, painless, private and easy. So, what's stopping you?
Talk to your doctor about bowel cancer screening. To find out when you will receive your free test kit as part of the National Bowel Cancer Screening Program, go online or call 1800 118 868. You can also purchase test kits from Bowel Cancer Australia here.
Remember to always be on the lookout for blood in your bowel motions (poo). It could be bright red, dark red, or the poo could even be black. Don't ignore it, and speak your doctor as soon as possible.

Today, Jean Hailes' Jo Roberts talks to Jean Hailes pelvic floor physiotherapist Janetta Webb about the importance of pelvic floor health at every life stage. Janetta shares tips on how to correctly strengthen (and relax) your pelvic floor – and dispel some myths.
Many women know the feeling of a urinary tract infection (UTI). Commonly the infection occurs in the bladder, and it's known as cystitis.
Some of us will get just a few UTIs our lifetime – while others will get them time and again.
While UTIs may be common, they still require caution and care. Let's sort fact from fiction and bust the myths of UTIs.
It's very common for UTIs to cause urinary symptoms. However, not every UTI makes its presence known this way. Some UTIs can be 'silent', with no symptoms.
If you do experience symptoms from a UTI, these may include:
• a burning sensation or pain when urinating
• needing to pass urine more often than usual
• feeling the need to urinate, but not being able to, or passing only a few drops
• feeling like your bladder is still full, even after urinating
• bladder leakage before you can get to the toilet
• urine that is smelly, bloody, cloudy or darker than normal
• lower back pain
• fever.
While pain with urination is a common symptom of a UTI, there are many other conditions that can cause this symptom.
These include vaginal or vulval irritation, certain STIs (sexually transmissible infections), kidney stones and painful bladder syndrome (also known as interstitial cystitis).
That is why it's important to see your doctor for a diagnosis, rather than just managing the symptoms at home on your own. A UTI is diagnosed through a combination of a urine test and an assessment of your symptoms.
If you get recurrent UTIs (UTIs that keep coming back), talk to your doctor about using at-home testing kits to confirm any future potential UTIs while you wait for further advice.
At menopause, many things are changing, and some women find they get more UTIs than before. This is usually due to the decrease in the hormone oestrogen, which begins prior to and during menopause.
This drop of oestrogen can affect the vaginal and vulval tissues – they often become thinner, drier and more prone to infection.
A topical oestrogen cream or pessary can be an effective way to manage this. It's also important to ensure you use a good-quality lubricant for sex and ensure you are aroused enough.
UTIs occur only slightly more in pregnant women compared to non-pregnant women; however, the consequences for both the mother and the unborn child are more serious.
There is a much higher risk of the UTI developing into a serious kidney infection, and possibly an increased risk of pre-eclampsia, premature birth and low birth weight.
Doctors commonly prescribe antibiotics for confirmed UTIs.
UTIs symptoms should start to get better a couple of days after starting antibiotics. If they don't – or if they get worse, or return after treatment – you may need a different type of antibiotic or treatment.
When this happens, it's important to seek medical advice quickly.
Drinking more water to 'flush' the bladder and urinary system has long been recommended to help with UTIs, but until recently there wasn't any strong scientific evidence to prove it actually worked.
However, in 2018, a research study tested the theory and found that women who drank an extra 1.5 litres of water per day (on top of their usual fluid intake) had 50% fewer UTIs and needed fewer antibiotics than women who did not drink additional fluid.
Urinary alkalinisers make the urine less acidic, which may help to ease the burning discomfort and pain that often comes with UTIs.
In this way, they may help to manage the symptoms, but they don't actually treat the infection – the cause of the UTI.
Some women find urinary alkalinisers to be useful, but if you're taking them and your symptoms don't get better, or if they get worse (and include fever, back pain or blood in the urine), see your doctor as soon as possible.
The jury is still out on this one!
The research on cranberry juice/supplements and UTIs is mixed. A 2012 review of research found that "some small studies demonstrated a small benefit for women with recurrent UTIs" but when a larger study was included in the review process, it was found that taking cranberry made no difference.
If you want to try cranberry out for yourself, look for a supplement that provides a daily dose of 36mg proanthocyanidins (PACs). PACs are thought to be the key compounds in cranberry and this dose has been shown to be more effective than others.
Remember, UTIs are common and easily managed with medication, but cystitis (bladder infections) can develop into a more serious kidney infection if left untreated. Known as pyelonephritis, this occurs when the infection travels up from the lower urinary tract to the kidneys.
If your symptoms persist for more than 24 hours and include fever, chills, back pain, nausea or vomiting, see your doctor immediately.
Women's Health Week is all about shining a light on health topics that are often kept in the dark. Don't ever feel alone or embarrassed. There are likely to be many other women experiencing similar issues to you. Help and support are available.
Linked to many areas of human health – from obesity and immunity, to inflammation, allergies, mental health and metabolism – research in the past decade has revealed the gut microbiome's crucial role in our overall health and happiness.
With so much still to be explored, now's the time to learn how to take care of your gut's greatest allies.
It's a meat-free meal (with the option of adding tofu or chicken for heartiness).
While red meat is an excellent source of iron and vitamin B12, for the prevention of bowel cancer, Cancer Council Australia recommends eating lean red meat in moderation – either 65g of cooked meat each day, or 130g three or four times a week and no more than 455g each week.
It's also recommended to limit or avoid processed meats such as salami, bacon, ham and other deli meats.
This recipe highlights several nourishing ingredients that can be pantry staples, along with a few fresh ingredients – the medicinal culinary herbs, garlic and ginger.
So, for your meat-free meal, try this Shiitake and miso noodle soup with some added tofu.
The National Public Toilet Map is especially useful for people with incontinence. It shows the locations of public toilets across Australia. Use the Trip Planner function, access it online, or download the app.
Watch 'Continence Champion', comedian Bev Killick, show you how to 'laugh without leaking', with thanks to the Continence Foundation of Australia.
How often do you need to visit the toilet in a day? What's healthy and what's not? Download our bladder and bowel fact sheet to get to know the basics of these important areas of health.
Probiotics are often called 'good' or 'healthy' bacteria.
The World Health Organization defines probiotics as live microorganisms which – when consumed in adequate amounts – give a health benefit to the host (that means you!).
You may notice the word probiotic on labels of fermented or cultured foods at your local health store or supermarket.
But as Jean Hailes naturopath Sandra Villella says, "it's important to note that the amount of probiotics found in these foods varies, and in many cases, is unpredictable."
For a food to be considered probiotic, it must contain 1 million CFUs (colony forming units) per gram or millilitre.
A total of 100 million to 1 billion microorganisms should be consumed per day to reach an effective amount.
"So, if you're comparing labels, look for a yoghurt or fermented food that specifies the dose of probiotics it provides," says Sandra. "And remember, a whole food diet rich in fruits, vegetables and fibres is one of the best to nourish and restore healthy gut bacteria."
Fermented foods, such as sauerkraut, kimchi, kefir and yoghurt contain good bacteria.
Eating these foods regularly may help to bring the right types of bacteria to your gut, so give your gut a good head-start with our easy sauerkraut recipe.
For women who already have pelvic floor issues, such as bladder leakage, Jean Hailes' pelvic floor physiotherapist Janetta Webb says that an intensive pelvic floor program is needed. Janetta also reminds us that some women need to learn to release their pelvic floor muscles, for example if they have pelvic pain.
She urges women to seek help for any pelvic floor symptoms, no matter how small.
In this podcast, Janetta guides us through some simple exercises for your pelvic floor. And don't forget to tune into our live video today too!

As it is stated in Romans 8:28 "And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose." AMEN
Psalms 138:8 "The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever. Do not forsake the work of your hands."
God chooses each of us carefully for something just as he did Mary because he knew we could handle whatever he set before us no matter what obstacles that may come our way, we just have to be willing to keep pressing our way on and doing what was given.
We are to walk out here on earth that heavenly promise that GOD gave to us. Let him whisper in your ear all that it is he needs you to do let him guide you as it want be an easy walk you take. Why? Because the enemy will try to stop you but you must keep pushing. What's going to keep you going is knowing that your Father has you and that you are doing what he has birthed you to do, so keep pushing.
If you don't know that you are pregnant with a purpose then you will just be existing and not living according to GOD. However, if you do know what you are pregnant with then what are you waiting on to birth that which is in you? Our Father gives each one of us a gift that is specifically for us that which he wants us to use and not sit on. MOG/WOG, it is time out for just sitting by and not doing what he has given unto you. It is time to push like you have never thought you could before. GOD gave you that so do with it as you know it was given. He will be right there guiding you at all times. He got you MOG/WOG, never doubt that he does not.
Habakkuk 2:3 "For still the vision awaits its appointed time; it hastens to the end—it will not lie. If it seems slow, wait for it; it will surely come; it will not delay."
Promise yourself that on today, that you will truly start pushing. On today say I will not stop as I have to fulfill that which was given unto me. Lastly, on today make that your priority to start birthing that purpose it's time to prepare for that delivery.
As it is stated in Philippians 4:13 "I can do everything through him who gives me strength." AMEN
What are you pregnant with?
Are you walking out that pregnancy with purpose?
What are you afraid of?
Isaiah 41:10
"So do not fear, for I am with you. Do not be dismayed for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will uphold you with My righteous right hand."
Romans 12:2 "Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect."
GOD is looking for you to activate that daily so get busy MOG/WOG, there's someone waiting on you now. Part of all purposes is to help others daily with an encourage word.
Jeremiah 29:11 states that "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope." AMEN
GOD Bless You Much Love

Climate change and disease
Posted: 28 September 2007
Changes in climate are likely to affect the incidence of diseases such as malaria, dengue and schistosomiasis by extending the range of their vector insects. A temperature rise of 1-2 degrees centigrade could result in an increase of the population at risk of contracting dengue by several hundred million, with 20,000-30,000 more dengue deaths a year by 2050.
- Climatic changes over recent decades have probably already affected some health outcomes. The World Health Organisation estimated, in its World Health Report 2002, that climate change was estimated to be responsible in 2000 for approximately 2.4 per cent of worldwide diarrhoea, and 6 per cent of malaria in some middle-income countries.
- WHO believes that the first detectable changes in human health may well be alterations in the geographic range (latitude and altitude) and seasonality of certain infectious diseases - including vector-borne infections such as malaria and dengue fever, and food-borne infections (e.g. salmonellosis) which peak in the warmer months.

- By 2100, climate change could have increased substantially the proportion of the world's population living in potential malaria transmission zones. A global mean temperature rise of 3° Celsius by 2100 would double the epidemic potential of mosquito populations in tropical regions and increase it in temperate regions more than 10 times.
- Irrespective of climate change effects, if current trends in greenhouse gas emission continue, some scientists believe there could be 700,000 extra avoidable deaths annually because of additional exposure to atmospheric particulate matter produced by the burning of fossil fuels, with 80 per cent of these deaths occurring in developing countries.
- By 2050, many cities could be experiencing several thousand extra heat-related deaths annually, irrespective of any increase due to population growth.
- Additional extreme weather events, such as floods, storms and droughts could result in greater risk of death, injury and starvation and increased incidence of psychological and social disorders.
- Increased exposure to ultraviolet radiation due to atmospheric ozone depletion could lead to an increase in skin cancers, cataracts and possibly suppression of the body's immune system.
- Sea level rise could result in displacement, loss of agricultural land and some fisheries, freshwater salinisation and social disruption, all of which could affect health status.
- The El Niño cycle, which may be affected by global warming, is associated with increased risks of some of the diseases transmitted by mosquitoes, such as malaria, dengue and Rift Valley fever. Malaria transmission is particularly sensitive to weather conditions. In dry climates, heavy rainfall can create puddles that provide good breeding conditions for mosquitoes. In very humid climates, droughts may turn rivers into strings of pools, preferred breeding sites of other types of mosquito.

Self-Initiated Major
One way that Ursinus supports creativity and innovation is by allowing students to self-initiate a major.
Students identify a core of course work in one program of study or major and then add coursework from other disciplines to craft an educational experience as unique as their ambitions.
Students who complete the first year and whose major interests span two or more recognized academic fields may propose a specialized major which combines these fields.
Students must have a cumulative B average (3.00) or above to be considered. The self-initiated major must be approved by both the appropriate departments and the Dean's Office.
The student is advised to meet with the appropriate department chairs to discuss and obtain approval for the proposed major. After obtaining support from the departments, the student must submit to the Dean's Office a written proposal which outlines all courses and major requirements. Upon successful completion of the major requirements so specified, the student will graduate in the subject field indicated on the program proposal.
Some of the more recently approved self-initiated majors include:
- Applied Ethics
- Peace and Social Justice
- Gender and Sexuality Studies
- Classics
- Statistics
- Linguistics
- Middle Eastern Studies

Casino dealers Then offer lots of offers to their customers (or potential customers) in an effort to realize their best casino experience for you. Some of these offers can be in the bonus offer format, such as the First Deposit Bonus, Initial Entry Bonus, Refer-A-Friend Bonus, or Returning Customer Bonus. The casino will also offer monthly promotions that can be found in the format of cash, gifts, or value payments. One of the updated additions to enhance the casino experience is in the dealer tournament then. This is provided for players to participate by playing their live casino and featured games. This tournament can be offered on a weekly or monthly basis, or for a specific time span.
One of the great benefits of playing in tournaments at live casino dealers is that you can do the things you like most, such as playing roulette dealers then, and receiving value for winning big cash or other prizes. You don't need to do something different than usual, just enter and start playing. Most casinos will automatically register you at the tournament, but even if you deserve to register yourself, that is the implementation of fast. You will start receiving grades when you start betting, and the person who collects the most scores will be the champion of the tournament. All you need to do is find out what the race is in the tournament, then place your bet and start playing!
In some major tournaments you will find that you receive the value of your bet when playing. Most live casinos will give you one unit "bet" value. For example, if you play with a euro denomination of money, so you will receive one value for each euro that you bet on the tournament competition. When you play and create more bets, the value will continue to accumulate during the tournament. In the results, calculated values and champions are announced!
Some casinos will calculate the value scheduled during the tournament to allow their players the opportunity to know how they rank. This can be done every day or every week, and done according to casino expectations. Some live casinos will post this ranking on their website every day. Casino like Lucky Live Casino and Celtic Casino will send e-mails to their participants, allowing them to know where they stand in the tournament. This news makes it easier for their customers, so they can play their flagship game with complete knowledge about their position.
When the world of live online casino is growing, it's exciting to see that there are many casinos that offer sophisticated gaming experiences, along with some really fun promotions. The new dealer tournaments are starting to become truly popular in the online casino world, and I want to start looking at more of them in the near future. Live roulette and blackjack live dealer tournaments are probably the most played, and the comfort of playing from a home computer makes this experience second to none. And always remember, have fun!

by Pastor Mark Taylor
"If you know these things, you will be happy if you do them."
John 13:17
The thing of not worrying. Jesus gave us this advice: "But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble" (Matthew 6:33-34). You can only live today. You cannot change what has happen in the past, and you cannot know what is going to happen tomorrow.
The thing of"Redeeming the Time". The Bible tells us: "See then that you walk carefully, not as fools, but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil" (Ephesians 5:15-16). Use your time wisely. We have more modern "time saving" inventions like the computer, but we still seem to have less time to accomplish the things we want to do. Much of our time is wasted watching TV, DVDs, and playing computer games. We still have as much time as other people. We have 24 hours a day and seven days a week.
"Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward" (Colossians 3:23-24).
The thing of "Doing Your Best". No matter how big or small the task is, we should seek to do it with our best ability: "Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might" (Ecclesiastes 9:10). If we are going to be a successful Christian, we need to learn how to go the extra mile. This includes doing our best at our place of employment, in our relationships with others, and using our gifts in service to the Lord Jesus Christ. "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward." (Colossians 3:23-24).
The thing of "Rest". Jesus said: "Come to Me all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." (Matthew 11:28). Jesus values both spiritual and physical rest. "And He said to them, Come aside into a deserted place and rest a little. For there were many coming and going, and they had no opportunity even to eat." (Mark 6:31).
Even God rested. Not because He was tired, but as a need He saw humanity would need. "And He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had made. And God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He had rested from all His work which God created to make." (Genesis 2:2-3). We are made in God's image and you need times of rest. You cannot be successful if you are physically and mentally tired.
The thing of "Learning". Jesus said: "Take My yoke on you and learn of Me, for I am meek and lowly in heart, and you shall find rest to your souls." (Matthew 11:29). Our minds are very important to God. He wants you and I to develop them to be used for His service. "Study to show yourself approved unto God, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." (2 Timothy 2:15). God wants you to be wise and to make good decisions. One of the first things in studying is to make sure you can use the knowledge that God gives you to make right decisions. That is called wisdom. You can get that wisdom from God as you study. "If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, Who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him." (James 1:5). Your knowledge and wisdom are given to you to help others. "But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy." (James 3:17). When you make decisions ask God to give you the mind of Christ in your decision. "Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus." (Philippians 2:5). If you think like the Lord, you will be successful and happy.
Today, I would encourage all of us to be happy Christians. We do not have to be discouraged and live in defeat. We have the power of the Holy Spirit to lift us above the world and all its problems. The Bible says: "Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord." (Romans 8:37-39).
The greatest step toward happiness is to first of all know that you are a Christian. Make sure you have more than just a "head knowledge" of the Lord Jesus Christ. "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?' "And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!' (Matthew 7:21-23). Make sure you faith is real. "Jesus answered and said to him, "If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him." (John 14:23).

Today, multinational companies (MNCs) from the USA, Europe as well as the Asia Pacific region are increasingly setting up their research and technology centers in India. These centers are mainly focused on the areas of research & development (R&D), Business Process Management (BPM) and information technology (IT).
These centers are commonly known as Global In-house Centers (GICs). The primary reason for moving their core operations to India are no longer just cost. "It is digital technology that is bringing companies here", opines K S Viswanathan, Vice President, Industry Initiatives at India's leading IT industry association NASSCOM. India has clearly moved away from cheap outsourcing work to digital-technology areas such as big data, analytics, mobility, artificial intelligence, machine learning, IoT (Internet of Things), blockchain as well as robotics.
"These GICs are typically more strongly integrated with the core business as they are perceived as an extended team of the parent or onshore organizations," says Aditya Verma, co-director of Everest Group's global sourcing practice. "They typically have specialized knowledge of the business as they cater to only one customer (the parent organization) as compared to a multi-tenant service provider."
The interventions via GICs give an edge to the organization in many ways such as fast- paced data proliferation, improved capabilities and hyper-connectivity. They help the business grow by bringing in direct visible benefits like higher customer engagement, targeted marketing and a visible reduction in capital expenses. In fact, these GICs are a big enabler of overall transformation and high-paced growth of their parent firms.
"Most GICs play a strategic role in building internal innovation capabilities for the parent and act as innovation hotspots to foster and propagate the cultural shift to innovate," says Prashray Kala, co-director of Everest Group's global sourcing practice.
"The nature of work being put in these GICs is skewed towards engineering and R&D as opposed to the traditional operations work such as finance and accounting. This enables GICs to be successful and sustainable even with small scale", emphasizes Verma.
India today happily boasts of having more than 1500 GICs, being operated by MNCs like Target, JCPenney, AB (Anheuser-Busch) Inbev, Saks Fifth Avenue, Grant Thornton, Adobe, Fiat Chrysler, GM, Volkswagen, Hyundai, Texas Instruments, GE, Honeywell, Airbus, Boeing, Shell, AON Hewitt, Intel, Qualcomm, Tesco, Petrofac, Novartis and Mercedes Benz, to name a few. These GICs collectively employ roughly 10 lakh people in India, being an important employment generator.
As one can note, these companies are spread across varied sectors such as financial services, consumer electronics, semiconductors, automotive, retail, consumer goods, energy, oil & gas, engineering, aerospace, healthcare, pharmaceuticals, travel, transportation etc.
Manu Saale, Managing Director of Mercedes-Benz R&D India says, "Even China doesn't have this kind of talent. The Chinese tend to focus on the local market. India is focused on global initiatives. I haven't seen the kind of international mindset, outspoken thoughts and engineering capabilities that the world is looking for in China."
Indian talent is exclaimed worldwide. Dinesh Paliwal, CEO, Harman International Industries explains, " If you challenge Indians and say, here's the product, take this, reverse engineer it, bring down the cost to a third of what it is…they will do it. Indians are creative geniuses."

i have a laptop that im tryin to download the window 98 2nd edition to it but it keeps on sayin error and i was wondering if there was and i want a copy of the window 98 2nd edition can anyone help me please
"im tryin to download the window 98 2nd edition'
Does this mean you are attempting to install windows 98?
Attempting to install 98 on a machine that already has XP on it? Or what?
More information please...
it doesnt have any windows on it but it had windows 98 2nd edition on it and im tryin to find a program that where i can install it back on there so that i can get it workin i got it off a friend and i didnt think it would be this hard to find a program for it cause all it says is error when i turn it on and it will not bring up anything on it so could u please help thanks
i need a website that i can burn a cd off of
You got what 'off a friend'--a 98 install disk or something else? If it's a regular 98 installation disk you shouldn't be having any problems. If you're not sure what you've got, post back what is written on the disk. Is the cdrom set as the first boot device in cmos/bios setup?
What exactly is the error message you're getting?
How fast is your CPU and how much ram do you have in it?
You're not really green until you're soylent green.
You need a boot floppy & the CD. Boot off the floppy to load the CD-ROM drivers, then run Win98 setup from DOS. If you can't borrow a CD from anyone, try the torrents. ISOHUNT.com is a good place to search. You'll need a bittorrent client such as utorrent & a program such as ImgBurn to burn the ISO file to disc.
i got a laptop from a friend im tryin to get it running again i dont have anyone to borrow a cd from thats why im tryin to get one off the internet i dont have a floppy drive so is there any other way i can do this what im tryin to do is download the program unto my desktop and put on a cd so that i can use it to put it on my laptop I dont have a disk of any kind im tryin to download it and i need to know a site to download it from
Have you checked ebay:
Well anyway, did you try jam's suggestion in # 6?
You're not really green until you're soylent green.

If you need a Windows 98SE CD, browse some of the torrent sites and find one. For the most part this is legal, because you need the license number to actually use the CD. About as far as I'm going on this one!
PowerMac 9600(1 ghz G4)
512mb RAM
50gb SCSI
ATi 9200 PCI
"...i dont have a floppy drive so is there any other way i can do this"
Contrary to popular belief, Windows 98 CDs are bootable. A floppy drive is only needed if your computer does not support booting from a CD (generally only 486s and first-gen Pentiums). Any computer that came with Windows 98 should boot from a CD.
Only OEM 98 CDs are bootable. Retail versions are NOT. I've never understood the why of it, but my retail full version is not bootable leading to the popular belief no doubt.
I find that very hard to believe, especially for SE CDs. Many laptops around that time didn't even come with a floppy drive standard, making booting from CD the only installation option. Plus it wouldn't make sense to ship the OEM discs with a bootloader but not retail. I suspect your issue is either in your configuration of your BIOS, or the BIOS possibly has a bug in it; an update may help.
melee5 is correct, believe it.
Remember that if you were dealing with a laptop it would have come with Windows already installed and any OS disks supplied would be OEM type.
The issue had more to do with the limitations of the BIOSes of the day.
Plus, when Win98se was released, most computers DID come with floppy drives. Floppy drives were only eliminated as standard hardware after they were no longer required for installation.
Yeah, although the OEM cd's were bootable most came with a floppy bootdisk as the bios option to boot from cd wasn't universal yet.
You're not really green until you're soylent green.
Again, that makes no sense. Laptops even before 98SE often didn't have floppy drives. Why would Microsoft needlessly exclude something that would stop even one potential sale of Windows? Not to mention the very little information I've found on the matter would seem to contradict your claim.
I am not going to debate weather or not it made sense. The fact is that retail versions were not bootable.
What little information have you found that contradicts the statements of three responders here?
Are you using an original Win98 CD or a copy? If original, what version is listed on the label?
To go further into the realm of I don't believe this, 98 gold was rumored to have been released on floppy disks just like 95 was in it's early release days. This rumor is false since there is a technique whereby anyone can use several special formatting programs to create precisely 1,716,224 free byte sized disks and then just copy the exact same sized 98 gold cab files onto them and make your own set of installation floppies at home or work - MicroSoft does not need to be involved any further, so you can be assured they won't be. Just like you always could do with 95b by the way.
And you can even do it with 98se except they changed the size required to 1,802,240 bytes which turned out to be only possible with very few floppy drives and so it was much harder to do. In order to do these odd sized disks you have to have the formatter only set up one sector for the directory and use 4 sector clusters and on and on with special requirements - but it CAN be done. FDformat at simtel was the only totally free one I found but there is a bunch that can do it supposedly.
They finally gave up this 'floppy' based option with Win ME. And then the boot floppy they sold me with my un-bootable 98se retail CD didn't boot. It kinda left me high centered a bit, at the time I assumed this was the level of MS support at it's best.
The manual that came with retail versions of 98 FE and maybe SE had a coupon you could mail to MS to get floppy installation disks. I've never seen a set of those but I guess they were out there.
Idis, of course old laptops had floppy drives. Where did you get the idea they didn't? There were those that had the swappable bay for either a cdrom or floppy drive. That was about conserving space and not a manufacturing decision that you didn't need a floppy drive. You'd be hard pressed to find a laptop from that era that didn't have floppy capabilities.
You're not really green until you're soylent green.
I have a laptop from that era (which came with NT 4), and it does not support swapping in floppy drives. If you wanted a floppy drive, you had to buy either a USB floppy drive (which the BIOS does not support booting from) or an expensive proprietary one from the manufacturer that connected via an external port. I wouldn't pay an additional $70 for a device I would only need once, and I doubt many others would either. Given that the Windows 98 disc doesn't even come close to filling the capacity of a compact disc, omitting a bootloader was definitely not a space-saving measure.
In the case of laptops I don't think I have ever seen a new laptop sold without an operating system pre-installed. Especially not back in the 98 era.
So, most folks buying Windows 98 would have been installing it on a desktop.
People upgrading laptops to 98 would have been going from 95 or 3.1. Those laptops most likely would have came with floppy drives.
Desktops of the day came with floppy drives as standard fair back in 1998.
That must be one of the few that didn't have a floppy drive. I can't imagine something like that having any sales appeal. Remember that was back when the removable media we have today didn't exist or was very expensive. Who made the laptop and what was the model number?
You're not really green until you're soylent green.
The tiny little notebooks of that era didn't have any drives and specialty laptops like the super rugged Itronix XC6000 series didn't until Win98Se days when their XC6250 Pro with a 300Mhz processor sprouted one USB port. The Itronix machines I mentioned would only read one specific external floppy drive and no external cd drive like a backpack. Imagine how long one of those would last in rain, hail, or salt spray if they had floppies or cd's that couldn't be sealed against weather, dropping a few feet etc. Stuff like that was used by law enforcement, utility companies, Sears, and so forth. They weren't made for the general public and no one would have paid over $6000 for a 486 laptop anyway. Those dinky little sub notebooks were the only thing I heard of offered to the general public.
Hell Dave, I can transfer the Win98 folder over an interlnk/intersvr connection in about 30 hours...who needs a floppy or cd? ;-)
@Dave - I have a couple notebooks like that.
The first one is a Toshiba Satellite Pro T2155CDS. The CD-ROM drive is securely mounted in the chassis, so its definitely not removable, and it does not have an internal floppy, only a dinky little port for an external one. I got it used and can find no documentation for it, so I don't know if it came with a floppy drive by default. I suspect the CD-ROM drive isn't bootable, but it doesn't read discs right anyway, so I can't check.
The second one is a Toshiba Tecra 8000. The CD/DVD drive is swappable, and you can put in a floppy drive, but I've never once seen one sold on eBay with one bundled (it cost extra when new). This was a business-class notebook, but very common.
The T2155CDS did have at least an option for an serial external floppy. I would imagine the drive would have been common because the original OS options were for Win 3.11 or Win95.
The Toshiba site does have some info on that model including a user manual, which interestingly enough is broken into two files small enough to fit on floppies. Have a look if you are interested. Link is below.
I know the T2155CDS supports an external floppy; the point is that I don't have one. Windows 98SE would run pretty bad on it anyway; I was just using it as an example. The Tecra 8000 was probably the better example of a computer that commonly didn't have a floppy drive and would have been a realistic target for Windows 98 SE.
OK, well I guess they were out there, I just can't imagine anyone buying one back then. Even now one like that would be my last choice. But I don't have much use for laptops. I think my newest (working) one is a 486

Fans Will Not Be Happy About This Male R&B Singer Calling Out Beyoncé, SZA And Cardi B
"Stop using that f**king pain to make it OK to say some bullsh** on your record and get nominated for a Grammy..."
On Sunday night (June 24), only the most soulful of voices stole the stage at the 2018 BET Awards stage to honor the legendary R&B soul jazz icon Anita Baker. The evening's host, Jamie Foxx, set down the mic and entered his musical element behind the piano to lead the Lifetime Achievement Award tribute, followed by R&B vocalist Marsha Ambrosius, R&B jazz songstress Ledisi and the Reigning Queen of Urban Gospel Yolanda Adams.
The lengthy performance brought forth some of Hollywood's most beautiful voices to honor the Caught Up In the Rapture vocal legend, but per usual, the internet was cutting up the entire time.
Anita Baker deserves every ounce of praise she's receiving tonight! #BETAwards pic.twitter.com/gpffif6SE6— The Root (@TheRoot) June 25, 2018

The outdoor landscape is slowly changing and crisp fall weather will soon set in. As the leaves begin to turn, many home decor enthusiasts will set their sights on updating their indoor color scheme as well as their wardrobes, turning to Pantone's bi-annual color report for inspiration.
Twice yearly, Pantone evaluates the trends shown on the catwalk during New York Fashion Week, later revealing its predictions for color. While the in-vogue palette refers specifically to men and women's apparel, it can also be used as an indicator of the colors that might pop up in home decor.
Prepare to transform your space with these fall hues and area rugs from Mohawk Home:
It's easy to add a splash of Grenadine to your home with a fresh throw pillow or accent rug, like the Ayanna Kaleidoscope style pictured above.
"A powerful, evocative, dynamic red, Grenadine is a confident and self-assured attention-getter," according to the Pantone color report.
Ballet Slipper is the rose-colored hue in the Pantone palette, a gorgeous new shade of Millennial pink. Mohawk Home has fully embraced the blush craze, adding touches in vintage and traditional patterns for a look that is sophisticated and feminine without being juvenile.
Pantone's Navy Peony and Marina blend perfectly in Mohawk Home's Luminous Indigo rug by Patina Vie.
Classic Neutral Gray home decor staples can easily transition between seasons, pairing perfectly with a variety of colors.
It wouldn't feel like fall without a rich orange, like Burnt Maple, boldly embodied in Mohawk Home's Floret Saffron area rug by Patina Vie.
Which of the colors from Pantone's fall color report do you love most? Will you be using the colors in your fall home decor? Share your thoughts in the comments below!

Well Happy Birthday to Alex! I sent a card but not sure when it'll get there.
Well, the start of the week was pretty cool. The last P-day we actually didn't get around to anything, we didn't go out to that store so I'll try again next week. But it was a pretty normal day. Then Tuesday came around and we had a really cool District Meeting. I invited Bishop Yates to come around and speak to all the missionaries. That guy knows a lot about the gospel. It was pretty crazy but really cool. He spoke about the challenges of working with less actives and recent converts. Then the zone leaders gave a short instruction about the difference between a full-time missionary and a fill time missionary. Then last of all, I spoke to the district about using the Book of Mormon to answer questions and objectives. It was pretty cool. Then we were off for the day and it really just got busy. That evening we got invited to the young men's activity at the church where we spoke to the youth about baptisms. They are going to be doing a youth temple trip soon so we were helping all the priests get ready to help with the baptisms in the temple because they can do that now. Which will be really cool for all them.
So as the week goes on by, we have found ourselves just getting more and more busy. Then I think the great part about the week was running into these two potential investigators. The guy we had a great chat about religion and really just getting away from the world and finding joy or trying to find God. We were then able to set a time to meet with him and I'm really looking forward to that. Then I ran into this woman and she was really nice. She had actually come to the church once before and she loved the idea of temples and that's what she told me so we had a great chat and I'm hoping to see her again tomorrow. Then we ran into this interesting man. The guy told us he was taught by missionaries in the past and we sat down with him and he told us that he could read minds. Well he wanted to hear what we had to share and he said he enjoyed it and that God was telling him in his mind to get baptized. It was a really good lesson I will admit that, but the guy later texted us and said no thanks doesn't want to get baptized but thanked us for the book. So that was odd and funny.
Then came moves call on Saturday. We didn't get too much done because we were thinking about the call all day. We tried to keep ourselves busy but that didn't work out so well. Well it was getting late we hadn't had the call yet so we for some food from a kebab shop and came back to the flat to have dinner. Elder Palmer was thinking more and more that he was going to stay, but the call came and Elder Palmer is off to Livingstone. I'm staying here in Irvine and I'll be with Elder Myers who I just picked up.
This morning we went to Paisley and we get to the train station and Sister Kearns got a new companion as well. Well Elder Myers and Sister Kotter (Sister Kearns new companion) were on the train together coming to Paisley. Well for a while no one knew where Elder Myers went to. He was lost but then found and got on this train. So Sister Kotter was going to stay on the train and Sister Kearns would get on and go to Stevenson with them. Elder Myers would get off and we would get the next train because the train with the Sisters doesn't go to Irvine. Well the train comes and we see them and Sister Kearns gets on but Elder Myers doesn't get off and then I see him getting his bags and running to the door but it's too late the door shuts and the trains starts off again. We all just look as Elder Myers wave's good bye on the train. It was pretty funny. So lucky the sisters with him had a phone so we call and have him get off at a stop, and then I got onto the next train and then meet him at the stop we told him to get off at. So that was a fun start! The rest of week will be really good though. I'm excited to see what happens. I'll see if I can skype into the baptism and let you know.

Jim Cline
Jim Cline of Kingsport is an insurance and financial services agent with Farmers Insurance. He's been a member of Horizon Credit Union for 28 years and thanks his wife, Elizabeth for introducing him to the credit union.
Jim's wife and her mom taught in the Kingsport City school system and were members of Horizon Credit Union when they first met. He recalls the first time he went with her to the credit union and it was located in the basement of a city building. After they married it was already predetermined they would do all their banking at the credit union and now Jim is grateful for that decision.
He started his business 21 years ago and has always kept his business accounts with Horizon Credit Union. Jim is quick to say that the best thing about having all his personal and business accounts there is the personal attention he receives every single time he walks in the credit union.
"Because of the longevity of most the employees, they get to know all their members and know each by name. Everyone at the credit union has always taken care of my banking needs. My entire family goes to the credit union for loans and I've worked with Tammy White at the credit union over the years and she always makes the procedure easy. I have three daughters and all of them have accounts there. I've used the credit union for every loan I've had the past 20 years," said Jim.
In a fast-paced world with so many changes always taking place, it's nice to know that some businesses stay the same in the way they treat people, regardless of their growth.
Jim is happy to see that his daughters are starting their adult life by becoming members at Horizon Credit Union. His daughter, Katie, recently graduated from nursing school and got her first home mortgage loan from Horizon. It's become a family tradition for the entire Cline family to become members there.
"They feel like a part of our family. I referred them to a neighbor and my neighbor loved them. You always hope when you refer someone to a business that they receive the same treatment. It was nice to know from my neighbor's experience that they give personable attention to everyone who walks through their door. The entire staff goes above and beyond expectations."
Jim served on the board of directors for many years and is excited to see the growth, development and changes taking place there. He's enthusiastic about the opening of their new branch in Mount Carmel and new spacious location on N. Eastman Road in Kingsport.
"In a fast-paced world with so many changes always taking place, it's nice to know that some businesses stay the same in the way they treat people, regardless of their growth."
He laughingly states that he still likes to receive a paper statement each month to reconcile his bank accounts, but the credit union does offer easy-to-use online banking. With three daughters, he talks about how he often goes inside the office on Clay Street to move money to their accounts and how simple that process is every time he goes there. With a large family, running a business and a farmer co-op, he enjoys the easy accessibility that comes from being a member of Horizon Credit Union. As he recommended Horizon to his neighbor, Jim wants other people to experience the personal attention that the entire Cline family has experienced over the years.

Mumbai – In Mumbai, this is a time of shifting political allegiance for petty gains ahead of the BMC polls. There is no dearth of political activists who have deserted their parent party, joined another in next few days (sometimes within an hour or so) and wishing to fight election on new party's symbol. On Tuesday, NCP activists and an independent corporator joined the BJP in city. Independent corporator Makrand Narvekar, who was until now supporting Shiv Sena in the BMC, his better half Harshda Narvekar, NCP's district president Asif Bhamla, Yuva Sena's Swapnil Yerunkar and others joined BJP on Tuesday.
While talking to Mumbai Live, Asif Bhamla claimed that he used to feel suffocated in the NCP. He also said that he is a good friend of city BJP chief Ashish Shelar and hence he joined the BJP. He also said that minority community members should join the BJP in large numbers so that they understand the difference between BJP and other political parties. It is to be mentioned here that chief minister Devendra Fadnavis had attended a programme organized by Bhamla in Bandra area. Since then, there were rumours of his joining the BJP. Meanwhile, Narvekar said that people in his ward were wishing to join the 'progressive party' like the BJP and hence he fulfilled their wish by joining that party.

"To create one's world in any of the arts takes courage". - Georgia O'Keefe
I love seeing life through the lens of a camera and capturing those special life events by freezing them in time for decades to come. I know how valuable photographs are because in 2000 my life changed dramatically due to a car accident. It is my passion to use the talents I've been given to help others store precious memories through pictures rather than just an image in their mind.

If the The big apple Islanders concluded their season by falling just shy of a playoff berth
Josh Bailey Jersey
, there have been rumblings that longtime normal manager Garth Snow could be to the warm seat. Just after all, the Eastern Meeting team had regre sed following earning it into the next spherical in the 2015-16 playoffs. Having said that, Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman suggests these rumblings might not be warranted. He is safer than several of us expected, Friedman mentioned over the Headlines section of Saturday's Hockey Evening in Canada. Snow, who's held his placement due to the fact 2006, was concerned within the the latest conclusion to get rid of the interim tag from head mentor Doug Exce s weight plus the firm is reportedly pleased while using the work of their GM. Friedman
states the club sought outside responses on Snow.I've read the Islanders employed another person to go all around the league and question and get
some impre sions with regards to the work Snow was executing, he claimed. Word was the report came back again favourable. You are by no means positive on this league neverthele s it does audio that Garth Snow is usually a lot a lot more protected than we thought.

Maple Leafs Trade Tree: Roberto Luongo for Wendel Clark

If you to s a punch and it lands, you may perhaps get the battle.In case you throw a punch and mi s out on, that is when you are susceptible. It is the 1995-96 period plus the Toronto Maple Leafs hold the playoffs on their minds. Following dropping in the 1993 and 1994 Western Conference Last, the Leafs misplaced a seven-game series on the Chicago Blackhawks within the 1st spherical of your 1995 Stanley Cup Playoffs.(Let me pause for your second for your young crowd. the Leafs was once in the Western Conference. Keep in mind how the Pink Wings used to be during the west? Okay this really is like that but dumber. Relocating on.)The Leafs manage to continue to feel they may have a genuine shot to go with a decent run inside the playoffs. In August, right before the 95-96 year commenced, the Leafs obtained defender Dmitri Yushkevich along with a 1996 second-rounder in the Philadelphia Flyers in trade for just a 1996 1st, 1996 fourth, as well as a 1997 second-rounder.As being the 1996 trade deadline approached, the Leafs produced a huge splash, a person that was meant to bolster the roster and make enthusiasts go nuts. On March 13, 1996, the Leafs acquired defender Mathieu Schneider, defender D.J. Smith, and former Leafs captain Wendel Clark.The admirers in Torontowere gaga for Clark's return and blew the roof off of Maple Leaf Gardens when he scored in his initial video game back. You should delight in what may be the most 1990's online video ever.My goodne s! Pandemonium in
Hogtown, Leafs followers as loud as at any time, and the prodigal son returned. What could maybe go completely wrong?Very well, see, loading up for that 1996 Stanley Cup Playoffs may not are the best idea. On 1 hand, the Western Conference was fairly weak. Contemplate this: The Tampa Bay Lightning had been the worst team to make the playoffs inside the east with 88 details. The worst workforce for making it in the west was the (initial) Winnipeg Jets with just 78. The brand new Jersey Devils skipped the playoffs from the east with 86 details, while the Leafs concluded fourth while in the west with just 80 points.On one hand, you could view that as being the west remaining ripe for your selecting. On the other, the 1995-96 Crimson Wings finished using a monstrous 134 details though the Colorado Avalanche, who experienced just lately acquired Patrick Roy, experienced 104. These two beastly groups appeared destined for just a collision system while in the Western Convention Last, which the truth is did occur and was a person of your nastiest playoff number of the previous three a long time. Regardle s of! At least the Leafs will get a minimum of two rounds worth of playoff income, right?Clark was a nice include with the Leafs but their opponents, the St. Louis Blues, added Wayne Gretzky. Sad trombone, the Blues gained in 6.Regardle s of what. The Blues got theirs in the 2nd spherical.Oh, appropriate! What did the Leafs provide the Islanders?This is the portion the place I provide you with a instant to back out as you even now can due to the fact if you're a Leafs fan I'm surely going to wreck your working day.The Leafs gave up a four-piece deal: Three players and 1 choose.Sean Haggertywas just one piece. He was chosen while in the second round of your 1994 draft but hardly ever really panned out for that Islanders, only actively playing ten NHL online games for them. Darby Hendrickson was one more piece. He was a youthful, up-and-coming depth centre looking to stay inside the NHL longterm. He wound up heading back again towards the Leafs several monthslater.Kenny John son was the 3rd piece. This a single hurts. Shortlybefore the Clark trade, the Leafs traded away forwards Dave Andreychuk and Benoit Hogue. They finished fifth and sixth about the team in scoring despite not finishing while using the Leafs. John son completed seventh, even with getting a 20-year-old defender, scoring 26 points in 50 games. John son was also the Leafs' second-leading defensive scorer powering Larry Murphy.John son went on to perform 597 game titles with the Islanders, putting up 232 details. Matthieu Schneider was a slight offensive up grade on John son, putting up 7 points in 13 video games to end the period, nonethele s it appeared evident that John son might have a sisted the Leafs in both of those the short and longterm.In fairne s, Schneider was under contract but just fell to the groin damage that sidelined him for the the vast majority on the 1996-97 time. Schneider's 37 points in seventy six online games was outstanding in 1997-98, even if the Leafs being a crew were not.And now range fourRemember how I explained the Leafs did not have their first-rounder in 1996? Perfectly the Islanders wished a first anyway. The straightforward option: Toronto gave the Islanders their 1997 first-rounder.What's the stating? Individuals who overlook background are doomed to repeat it.If you have read through my Scott Niedermayer trade tree, which happens to be its own treasure trove of yuck, you know in which this story goes. The Leafs acquire a participant during the 1989-90 time for any 1991 first-rounder, imagine they're improved than they are really, they're very not, and minimal and behold they surrender the third overall decide into the Devils who select Scott Niedermayer. The Leafs' 1996-97 year went improperly.There have been injuries. There have been trades. Mats Sundin and Tie Domi were the one Leafs to succeed in 80 game titles. Felix Potvin, just as much as it pains me to state it, had a horrible calendar year having a .908 help save share in a heavy 74 video games though experiencing slightly below two,500 shots.The Leafs completed final in the Central Division, third-last from the Western Meeting, and fourth-last while in the entire NHL. Gue s what which means, young children.The first-rounder the Leafs gave the brand new York Islanders wound up becoming the fourth overall choose in 1997.The Islanders made use of that select to choose: Roberto Luongo.Alright here's how my dumb fantasy goes: The Leafs almost certainly would have ongoing down the path they were on. Trip Potvin for your calendar year or two more, signal Curtis Joseph being a no cost agent, trade Potvin, and acquire Luongo when CuJo holds the fort. When CuJo leaves, Luongo is ready, the Leafs under no circumstances indication Belfour, he never ever receives purchased out, no Rask-for-Raycroft trade, and many of us have a very Merry Christmas.That is all wishful pondering although.Think about this having said that: The Leafs draftedFelix Potvin in 1990. The Leafs didn't draft a different goalie who really played an NHL video game for them until finally they chose Mikael Telqvist in 2000. Okay I'm drawing this out with
Scott Laughton Jersey
agonizing hypotheticals. So how exactly does the trade tree stretch out?With the Islanders, the tree is enormous and is particularly in fact nonethele s ongoing.If it helps make Leafs enthusiasts feel any superior, the Islanders squandered Luongo in a single from the worst trades in franchise historical past. Isles GM Mike Milbury sent equally Luongo and Olli Jokinen on the Florida Panthers for Mark Parrish and Oleg Kvasha.Parrish surely was not negative. He scored 214 details in 345 online games using the Islanders. Kvasha was not lousy either, scoring 156 factors in 332 video games with all the Islanders. Jokinen, neverthele s: Four distinct 30-plus intention seasons, 321 vocation targets, 750 details in one,231 video games, such as 419 points in 567 game titles to be a Panther. Dropping Jokinen was negative. Shedding Luongo, too? Which is a fleecing.It's not all lousy with the Isles although.The Islanders traded Parrish to L.A. inside of a offer that saw them purchase defender Dennis Grebeshkov. The Isles then despatched Grebeshkov to Edmonton for defender Marc-Andre Bergeron plus a 2008 third-rounder. Some months afterwards, the Isles then despatched that third-rounder and defender Allan Rourke to Edmonton for the second-rounder in 2008. That pick was 53rd overall and utilized to pick out current Islanders defender Travis Hamonic.That should to take the sting off the Luongo trade. Properly, maybe a bit.Within a humorous coincidence, the Islanderstraded Bergeron to the Anaheim Ducks for what was really a similar 2008 third-rounder they in the beginning obtained with him, which changed into Kirill
Petrov. He by no means still left the KHL apart from just one short 13-game AHL stint. The Islanders traded Kvasha as well as a 2006 fifth-rounder to Phoenix for your 2006 third-rounder. The Isles managed to turn that third-rounder into quite a few more picks in specials with Boston and later on San Jose. However, none of people picks cracked the NHL together with the Islanders. Far more sadly, Boston applied that 2006 third-rounder to pick out Brad Marchand at 71st general.How about the Leafs?I've listened to some seek advice from this as the worst trade in Leafs historical past. In my humble impre sion, that is only not the case. Oh, it is unquestionably not a great trade however it could po sibly be even worse. In genuinely catastrophic trades, you surrender a great deal in return for almost nothing. In this case, the Leafs gave up a lot but a minimum of acquired some thing.Clark performed a hundred twenty five game titles in his second stint as a Leaf, scoring 50 goals and 33 a sists for eighty three details. The Leafs weren't great but he did his part.Smith was flipped to Nashville for Marc Moro, who hardly ever performed for that Leafs but did function the captain from the Leafs' AHL affiliate. Smith is additionally one particular from the Leafs' present-day a sistant coaches, by the way.Schneider played 115 game titles with Toronto ahead of finding dealt on the Big apple Rangers in a deal that observed the Leafs get defender Alexander Karpovtsev.Immediately after one hundred twenty five online games for a Leaf, Karpovtsev was traded to your Blackhawks within a offer that saw the Leafs purchase Bryan McCabe. Soon after 7 several years and 523 video games in Toronto, McCabe was traded to Florida for defender Mike van Ryn, who managed to sneak in 27 game titles being a Leaf.In full, among Schneider, Karpovtsev, McCabe, and Van Ryn, which is 790 Leafs game titles. Absolutely sure, you'd relatively have Luongo but that's much from nothing at all.The good news is, this trade would mark the final time the Leafs would trade away their first-round decide just before the period even started (Oh Tyler Seguin. Appropriate).Like a rule of thumb, maybe do not trade away your first round-pick before Valentine's Working day.

For me, the most important thing to keep me from snacking on unhealthy things, is to keep plenty of my basics "go-to" foods in my cupboards. It seems like my brain goes into panic mode if I let myself run out of apples, bananas, fresh and frozen berries, fat free natural yoghurt and boiled eggs. Those are my basic go-to items if I get hungry between meals. They are all "free foods" in my plan so there are no limitations on them.
Last week I should have gone shopping on Friday because the food cupboards were starting to look a bit empty in general. Unfortunately, the beautiful weather made me prioritise other things. Working two long days in a hot kitchen during the weekend meant I didn't fancy going shopping after work on any either of those days. Come Monday and all my staple foods were gone. Obviously, it was stupid of me to let it get that far, but if I hadn't, I'd never realise how powerful the mind can be. When my cupboards are filled, and I have got my go-to foods on hand, I don't seem to need them so often. As soon as I knew, I had absolutely nothing to take to if needing a snack, I was hungrier than ever. My mind could not settle or think about anything but food. Sadly, Mondays are very busy days for me, so I couldn't go shopping before late afternoon and the panic my mind felt, knowing there was no safety net within my home, was horrendous.
It stunned me to realise I was showing addictive behaviour. Just because these foods weren't where I could put my hands om them if I felt the need, I couldn't settle on anything else. I was in the cupboards all the time checking what I could eat without going on to unhealthy things. Then, to get some work done, I made myself yet another cup of coffee, then I went back to repeat the procedure. Even though it was anything but a fun day, it was interesting to experience my behaviour from the outside and to follow how my mind worked.
We all need food to survive, but for those of us who have taken on food as a crutch and a comfort at some point in our life, after having experienced something emotional that's been too horrific for us to deal with, food isn't always a friend. It may be just as addictive as any other substance, and since we can't stop eating we will have to finally find a way to deal with it, and emotionally sort out whatever drove us to comfort eat in the first place. To develop a neutral relationship with food, and eliminate food as a solution for emotional triggers, is the only way to get to, and then, finally stay, within a healthy weight range and get off the rollercoaster ride of weight gain and weight loss. I did well on Monday, even if it was an exhausting experience, and I have a feeling that I've done well all week.
I was right! Today, I was 3Ibs lighter than last week, or around 1.5kg. If I lose 1Ib this coming week I've lost 1.5 stone in total or just under 11 kg. Since I'm aiming for two, that should be able to achieve.
Have a good week everyone, and I see you in 7!

Las Vegas has awarded a $48.7 million contract to Elon Musk's Boring Company to build a high-speed autonomous shuttle underneath the city's remodeled convention center, per multiple reports.
Why it matters: Sin City is the first paying customer for Musk's hyperloop idea, which was "joke-tweeted" into existence two and a half years ago, Wired magazine writes. The transit system would shorten what would be a 15-minute walk to a one-minute ride.

I did enjoy! Thank you.
How far is Gardner willing to go? Far enough to support Personhood amendments in Colorado that voters voted down three times. Women are familiar with his name because of his anti abortion stand and his many efforts to ban legal abortion. "Pro-life" christian conservatives love Gardner!
Stephany Rose also supports Planned Parenthood and women's rights! Let's make our country better by voting for a strong candidate.
I agree with everything this letter says about birth control which would solve a multitude of problems for the planet and humanity. However, pedophiles don't have normal sexual desires. Allowing clergy to marry won't solve that horrific problem.
Are we here in Colorado surprised? NO, because we've watched and fought back for almost 20 years against the heartless cruelty Focus on the Family christians have brought to our state and the negative impact they have had.
For instance just one of many examples, we've had to spend our money to campaign against and defeat Personhood amendments endorsed by Focus on the Family christians from their headquarters and pulpits in 3 elections. No other state has had to do this.
Rhea is no different than Lamborn when it comes to women's reproductive rights. His quotes from CP Colorado Politics article on Oct 14th, 2017:
"Rhea said his judicial experience has given him unique insight into how to draft anti-abortion legislation that can escape the usual political pitfalls.
"I am concerned that we who are pro-life have grown too silent on this issue. My wife and I both have had dramatic experiences around the issue of abortion. We are passionate about that subject and it will be central to our campaign, he said."

Belfast Room, ULSTER MUSEUM
Exhibition and Public Lecture
Take a look at the earliest recordings of comets in England and never-before-seen contemporary photographs by astronomers.
Come along to this free exhibition running from 1 May - 3 June in the Ulster Museum Belfast combining Medieval Studies and Astronomy and Astrophysics!
Marvelling at the Skies: Anglo-Saxon Comets and the Quest for Planet 9 (Public Lecture), Date: Wednesday 2 May 2018, 7pm, Location: ULSTER MUSEUM, Botanic Gardens, Belfast BT9 5AB
Is it the case that in the Middle Ages comets were solely seen as signs of divine will? What did the Anglo-Saxons know about astronomy? How can medieval studies make a resounding contribution to the ongoing scientific debate on the existence of the so-called Planet Nine, currently impossible to confirm by direct observation. These are some of the questions that will be addressed by Dr Marilina Cesario, Senior Lecturer in Anglo-Saxon in the School of Arts, English and Languages (Queen's University Belfast) and Dr Pedro Lacerda, Lecturer in the School of Mathematics and Physics (Queen's University Belfast) at the opening talk which accompanies the exhibition Marvelling at the Skies: Comets through the Eyes of the Anglo-Saxons.
This is a free event but tickets must be booked online HERE

Lizard Men
One of the most bizarre creatures reported in recent times is undoubtedly a nightmarish entity from South Carolina, which has been aptly nicknamed Lizard Man. According to eyewitnesses, it walks on its hind legs, stands just over 7 feet tall, and has glowing red eyes and green scaly skin. It has only three toes on each foot and three fingers on each hand, but every toe and every finger has a 4-inch long black claw at its tip. Lizard Man first made its presence felt at around 2 A.M. on June 29, 1988. This was when 17-year-old Christopher Davis was changing a flat tire on his car near Scape Ore Swamp, which is just outside the backwater village of Bishopville in South Carolina's Lee County. Chris was placing the jack into his car boot when he spied something very large running on its hind legs towards him, across a field close by. As it drew near, Chris jumped inside his car and tried to slam the door shut, but the horrifying reptile-man seized it from the other side, gripping the mirror as it attempted to wrench the door open! And when Chris tried to escape by accelerating hard, his scaly attacker jumped on to the car's roof! Luckily, it soon fell off as the vehicle sped away. When Chris arrived home he was trembling with fear, the roof of his car bore a series of long scratches and the wing mirror was severely twisted. The massive media publicity generated by this incident led to many other Lizard Man reports emerging during the summer of 1988, but the same could not be said for Lizard Man itself, who eventually disappeared without ever having been satisfactorily explained. Interestingly, this bizarre episode is far from being unique. Long before Chris Davis's frightening experience, many other parts of North America had also hosted encounters with reptilian man-monsters, astonishingly similar in appearance to the amphibious "gillman" starring in Hollywood's classic Creature from the Black Lagoon movie. On August 19, 1972, for example, Robin Flewellyn and Gordon Pike were allegedly chased away from the beach around Thetis Lake in British Columbia, Canada, by a 5 foot tall bipedal monster with six sharp points on its head, which had unexpectedly surfaced in the lake. Four days later, at around 3:30 P.M. on August 23, Russell Van Nice and Michael Gold could only watch in amazement when what was presumably the same creature suddenly stepped out of the lake, looked around and then walked back into the water, disappearing from sight. According to their description, it was humanoid in shape, but with scaly silver skin, huge ears, the face of a monster and a pointed projection on its head. In 1977, a State Conservation naturalist called Alfred Hulstruck claimed that a scale-covered man-beast regularly emerged at dusk from the red algae-choked waters of Southern Tier in New York State. Five years earlier, in March 1972, two policemen saw a frogfaced humanoid creature, about the size of a dog, plunge into Little Miami River near Loveland, Ohio. In this same area, back in 1955, a respectable businessman claimed that he had seen a quartet of 3 foot tall, frog-faced creatures squatting under a bridge like fairytale trolls. Another longstanding tradition of scaly humanoids features the fish-men of Inzignanin, near Chicora- an area sandwiched between North and South Carolina. These beings were said to be covered with scales and had webbed hands. Most distinctive of all, however, were their tails, which were as thick as a man's arm, about 18 inches long and relatively inflexible, like those of crocodiles or alligators. According to local lore, they lived only on raw fish and therefore soon died out when the area's fish supplies became exhausted. Equally strange was the 6 foot tall, fluorescent-eye monster that clawed Charles Wetzel's car on the evening of November 8, 1958 as he drove by the Santa Ana River near Riverside, California. Although often placed in the bigfoot category of mystery beasts, it was much more akin to the reptilian monsters, as noted by the writer Loren Coleman, because it was covered in leaf-like scales and had a protrusible beak-like mouth. Needless to say, no real-life creatures of the "Black Lagoon" variety have ever been proven by science to exist on earth, either during the present or the past. Yet, if the course of evolution had taken a different turn, our planet may indeed have been home to life forms of this type. In 1982, the scientific journal Syllogeus published a very unusual but highly original paper by two well-respected Canadian paleontologists, Dr. Dale A. Russell and Dr. R. Seguin from the National Museum of Natural Sciences in Ottawa. Its subject was the fascinating possibility that, if the dinosaurs had never died out, they would have eventually given rise to a dinosaurian counterpart of human beings. In their paper, Russell and Seguin speculated about the likely appearance of such a creature and suggested that it would have stood upright on its hind legs, with three fingers on each hand. They even constructed a model of this 'dinosaur man' and what is so amazing about it is that in overall appearance it is remarkably similar to the descriptions of Lizard Man and other reptilian man-beasts reported from modern-day North America!
When a mystery is too overpowering, one dare not disobey
