Navigation GPS Review
The top performers in our review are the Garmin Nuvi 2589. the Gold Award winner; the TomTom GO 500. the Silver Award winner; and the Magellan SmartGPS. the Bronze Award winner. Here s more on choosing a product to meet your needs, along with detail on how we arrived at our ranking of 10 products.
Navigation GPS units are small, portable devices that can give you accurate, specific directions, even in areas without cell service. They are vastly superior to smartphone apps because they don't use data or tax your smartphone's battery.
You type in or, in some premium models, speak your destination and the device gives you turn-by-turn directions. It also displays information such as your current speed and the time and distance remaining until you reach your destination.
They attach via a suction cup to your windshield or dashboard and get power from a cigarette lighter adapter. Unlike with permanent navigation GPS units, you can simply unplug a portable GPS and move it from car to car.
In contrast to a smartphone navigation app, you don't have to be in an area with cell service in order to get turn-by-turn directions from a navigation GPS. This is because these units have maps in their memories and get their location information directly from GPS satellites, which have better coverage than cell phone providers do.
Navigation GPS: Essential Features
Every unit that we reviewed comes preloaded with maps of the United States. They also have micro-SD card slots into which you can insert additional map cards. This means that if you plan to travel abroad, you can buy a map of that country, load it onto a micro-SD card and insert it into your GPS.
It's important that you look for a GPS with lifetime map updates. This means that every year or so, you can go on the manufacturer's website and update your maps to reflect any changes. Automatic reroute is an essential feature found on every decent car GPS. If you take a wrong turn, the unit should recalculate your route based on your updated location.
A speed limit indicator is another important feature. The device tells you not only the speed you're traveling at, but also the speed limit of the road you're on. This can help you avoid speeding tickets caused by not knowing the speed limit of the road you're on, such as one in an unfamiliar location. You'll also want to make sure your GPS has a built-in battery so it can work even when unplugged.
Navigation GPS: Premium Features
The best navigation GPS units have a host of features that, while not necessary, greatly enhance your navigation experience. The most important of these is voice-activated navigation. This is one of the biggest advantages smartphones have historically had over dedicated GPS units, because it's much quicker than typing in a destination. Several models we reviewed have this feature.
3D maps are an especially helpful feature if you frequently drive in cities. Tall buildings, bridges and other tall objects are modeled in three dimensions. This makes them much easier to recognize than they are on a traditional two-dimensional map. All Garmin Nuvi units have 3D maps, and Magellan and TomTom also offer them on select models.
Another premium feature that you should look for is a built-in traffic receiver. This enables you to check traffic conditions without having to consult your smartphone. A capacitive touchscreen is another feature that is good to have, because it enables you to make pinch-to-zoom gestures, just as you would on your smartphone, an ability you don't get with resistive touchscreens.
The Verdict; Our Recommendations:
The Garmin Nuvi 2589LMT is the best car GPS on the market. It has every feature that you should look for in a GPS, and Garmin has the best customer service in the industry.
The TomTom GO 500 is a close runner-up, the lack of a built-in traffic receiver being its only real weakness, and it can still receive traffic updates through a dedicated smartphone app. It's a bit cheaper than the Nuvi, too.
The Magellan SmartGPS 5390 is our third choice. Its feature list is virtually identical to the TomTom's, and its screen has a higher resolution. However, Magellan's customer service is not as good as TomTom's or Garmin's.
If you're on a strict budget, the TomTom GO 50 is the auto GPS for you. It's on par with the most affordable units on the market, and it includes lifetime map updates. It has all of the essentials that we look for, but it lacks the premium features that differentiate the best car GPS units from the competition.
Everyone uses maps, but some people use paper maps, some use dedicated GPS units, and some use their smartphones. Dedicated GPS units are easily the best choice, because they work almost anywhere and, unlike paper maps, they can be updated.

Hello All,
I have been learning VB6 on my own with the Sams books and similar ones and was wondering, should I stop where I am and pick up the new ones for the .Net VB or should I continue reading the VB6 books?
I ask this because it looks like they are the same except for a few GUI changes and for some functionality changes.
So my question basically is, is there a major difference between VB6 and VB.Net? Are what I am learning about in VB6 useless in VB.Net?

Never heard of the brand "Funkier"? You're not alone. I had not heard of this brand either, until I received a press release about their new clothes. After checking their website, I learned that they are based in Israel of all places. Now, it just so happens that I met a fellow cycling journalist from Israel at a media launch about two years ago. It was then that I first learned that despite my preconceived American notions of Israel, they have quite a flourishing high-end mountain biking scene. According to the Funkier guys, Israel has "really good forest single tracks and challenging desert trails."
Funkier makes cycling apparel for both the road cyclist and mountain biker alike and they offer stylish options for the commuter as well. Women's specific shorts and jerseys are available in road and mountain styles. Other Funkier soft goods include head-wraps/bandanas, arm and leg warmers, shoe coverings and gloves. They also have a small selection of road and mtb helmets.
What got my attention as I perused the Funkier website was the Eurobike Award that they won last year for their shorts design. If they can win an award at Eurobike, it just might be worth checking out, and I'm glad I did. I also tested the Funkier Freeride Jersey in short sleeve, both items are great choices for warm weather riding and are durable with nice features.
The Funkier Freeride Jersey (FRJ-616S) comes in both long sleeve and short sleeve versions. It is available in red and comes in 6 sizes (SM, MD, LG, XL, 2XL, 3XL) It is V-neck style with no zippers but it does have one zippered pocket on the back, which is also waterproof (a nice touch).
Fabric is 100% Polyester but isn't hot. It has liberal amounts of venting via the mesh armpits, side panels, underside of the sleeves (which are Raglan) and the front printed panel (which won't wear or wash off because it is dye sublimated). As a "freeride" style jersey, the fit is naturally on the loose side. The jersey has a "Quick Dry" Active Protection treatment to allow for quick moisture evaporation that keeps you dryer and more comfortable than other fabrics.
I tested the medium size and the fit is comfortable and gives a nice, light and "airy" feeling. The fabric is soft to the touch and has held up to multiple washings (recommendation is gentle (cold) cycle wash, hang dry) with zero color fade. This jersey looks just as good after a dozen uses as when it was brand new.

Dylan Scott - DYLAN SCOTT, 'MAKIN' THIS BOY GO CRAZY' - SONG REVIEW
June 24, 2013
via tasteofcountry.com
Dylan Scott's sturdy southern drawl holds up his first single 'Makin' This Boy Go Crazy.' Like many young singers, Scott sounds as if he's still searching for a vocal identity, but any hesitation is quickly covered by a hooky chorus and colorful lyrics.
It's a love song with a familiar theme and beat. The native Louisianan can really rumble when he reaches down to hit the low notes, but his performance won't leave female fans tingling like the greats. He's capable of doing just that, but 'Makin' This Boy Go Crazy' isn't the song for it.
"Oh girl you make me feel like whoa / Spinning me outta control with every little move you're makin' / Driving me wild if you know what I'm saying / Hey, shoot another smile my way / You're makin' this boy go crazy," he sings during the chorus. The second verse is by far the sharper of the two. So often an introductory single resorts to country cliches after the first minute, but Scott's effort only gets better.
"Ain't no guessing 'bout where you're from, when that southern draw slips off your tongue / Your little town is coming out and every time it turns me on baby / I can catch a buzz without a drink, that's what your body does to me / Every kiss is like a sip, I wanna taste, over and over."
At 22 years old, it's likely Scott hasn't spent that much time in a recording studio. In going for perfection, he steers away from the rough edges that can really make a song unique and remarkable. Given time and experience, one senses he could be a special vocalist a la Chris Young.

President Obama held out a new "grand bargain" to Republicans on Tuesday, offering a tax cut for corporations if the GOP agreed to spend more on job-creating infrastructure and training projects. The president deserves credit for continuing to advocate important investments in the economy in the face of the Republicans' drive for austerity. But he would be better off presenting new ideas than just repackaging old ones and hoping for a groundswell of public support to change GOP minds.
Speaking at an Amazon warehouse in Chattanooga, Tenn., Obama said that he favors simplifying the corporate tax code by closing "loopholes and special-interest tax breaks." Doing so, the White House said, would make it possible to lower the top U.S. corporate tax rate from 35% — the highest in the developed world — to a more globally competitive 25% for manufacturers and 28% for the rest of industry. But Obama's plan also calls for unspecified changes that would raise revenue by billions of dollars in the short term to spend on infrastructure, worker training at community colleges and public-private efforts to spur innovation in manufacturing.
Although the combination was novel, Obama had floated all of those proposals over the last two years, and they seem unlikely to receive a more positive response this time. Frankly, the leaders of Congress' tax-writing committees are far ahead of the president in pursuing bipartisan, comprehensive tax reform, not just for corporations but for all taxpayers. What remains to be seen is whether those lawmakers will be able to overcome the resistance of entrenched special interests and the dysfunction of their respective chambers.
Obama may have improved the prospects for a tax code overhaul by publicly embracing it for corporations — a constituency that's hardly beloved by his party. But he overlooked the best argument for it: As Harvard professor Mihir A. Desai has pointed out, those taxes typically are borne by a company's workers, not its shareholders or customers. Lower corporate rates also diminish the incentive for companies to play global hide-and-seek with their income and assets.
It's good to see Obama continuing to try to break through the logjam in Congress for the sake of spurring job creation and economic growth, despite the toxic partisanship on Capitol Hill that threatens to bury any plan that bears his name. It's just hard to expect better results when the president is content to recycle the same proposals that the GOP has been rejecting.

Planning to spend 2 or 3 weeks May20th on into June hiking in the hopefully sunny, still snowy Eastern High Sierra.
Will be spending nights in the backcountry but also planning to do some long day hikes. For those days and the days between longer outings, I'd like to spend nights in a campground where I can rest and do some car camping.
What are your favorite campgrounds from Lone Pine to Lee Vining?
For me the ideal campground would: be beautiful, have access to trails into backcountry, be closer to 8000' elevation rather than 3000' in the Owens Valley, permit fires, have shade and lots of women. No particular order.

By the end of this year, the government of China expects to have spent $586 billion in stimulus funds. The spending was implemented in 2008 to bolster domestic demand and consumption to offset the impact of reduced exports to the U.S. and Europe. With so much cash in the China market, U.S. investors can no longer rely exclusively on their ability to bring cash to a deal because they are now competing with domestic investors, says Chris Brooke, president and CEO of the Asia business unit for CB Richard Ellis.
Since 2006, Brooke has served as president and CEO of the brokerage's Greater China business, overseeing offices throughout Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan. In China alone, CBRE has 12 offices with 900 full-time employees. That total rises to 3,000 when including on-site property management and residential sales staff. In July last year, the Beijing-based executive took on an expanded role, overseeing the company's operations across Asia, excluding India and Japan. Brooke, who speaks enough Chinese to "get by," recently talked with NREI about the investment climate in China.
NREI: How has China's commercial real estate market changed?
Brooke: The context of the China investment market has changed over the last 18 months. Two to three years ago, there was a shortage of capital and domestic investors within China. They were very much reliant on foreign investors coming in and buying assets, providing equity to development projects.
With the stimulus package, that all changed because there's so much liquidity in the system, it's not just about the money anymore. Foreign investors also need to be able to offer specialist expertise and asset management capabilities. The government has started to relax the regulatory environment so that insurance companies can get involved in real estate.
NREI: What risks should investors be aware of before entering China?
Brooke: The biggest ongoing risk in China centers around policy. The real estate sector forms such an important part of the broader economic growth of the country. It contributes a very significant percentage of the GDP growth. The government has to strike a very fine balance between allowing the real estate sector to grow — and thereby allowing wealth generation and wealth creation — but at the same time not allow the market to get overheated.
Other risks are the possibility of inflation going forward. How's the government going to deal with that? Also, is the Chinese government going to need to raise interest rates either to combat inflation or to deal with rampant appreciation?
NREI: How did U.S. investors in China fare during the recession?
Brooke: A lot of investors had to liquidate assets, or they took the view that it was a good idea to liquidate assets or funds over the last 12 to 18 months. So, we have seen investors disposing of assets, particularly in the second half of 2009. Developers like Hines, Tishman Speyer and Portman Holdings are looking at more of a development scenario, so they're taking a longer-term view and looking at returns later this year and into 2011 and 2012.

City leaders are calling for an amendment to their agreement with the Mashpee Wampanoag tribe that would require the tribe to reach a new mitigation plan with the city if it were to ever expand its proposed casino operation to the Silver City Galleria or any other property that hasn't already been identified.
City leaders are calling for an amendment to their agreement with the Mashpee Wampanoag tribe that would require the tribe to reach a new mitigation plan with the city if it were to ever expand its proposed casino operation to the Silver City Galleria or any other property that hasn't already been identified.
City councilors were presented with the proposed amendment Friday and are expected to take up the matter Tuesday night. The Mashpee Wampanoag Tribal Council will likely discuss the issue next Friday.
"This agreement is the best option for the city moving forward, as I have felt since day one the Galleria mall would be a better site for a resort casino. That being said, the tribe has no agreement on the mall at this point and intends to move forward with the Liberty & Union site."
The tribe says it does not currently have an agreement in place to purchase the Silver City Galleria, but the property is identified in the tribal-state gaming compact as being part of the approved tribal casino site. The document also lists the 146 acres the tribe has under a purchase option in and around Liberty & Union Industrial Park.
"The amendment merely confirms our commitment to our destination resort casino project at the Liberty & Union site, and to notify and work with the city should we seek to build at any other location within the city of Taunton," Mashpee Wampanoag Tribal Chairman Cedric Cromwell said.
Hoye said the mall was at one time the preferred casino site, but the tribe was unable to agree on a price with Galleria owner C-III Capital Partners.
C-III has declined comment on the mall property's inclusion in the compact.
"This amendment makes it crystal clear that that the Tribe would not be able to conduct any gaming at the Galleria Mail without first having a further written binding agreement with the City," City Solicitor Jason Buffington wrote in a letter sent to city councilors on Friday. "Any such agreement could not reduce the guaranteed annual payment of $8M to the City. The amendment also confirms that City's right to obtain injunctive relief against the Tribe should it become necessary."
Hoye and Mashpee Wampanoag Tribal Chairman Cedric Cromwell agreed to the amendment to the intergovernmental agreement between the tribe and Taunton. The original agreement, approved last year, calls for the proposed tribal casino to pay the city at least $8 million per year in lieu of taxes.
The amendment, now subject to the approval of the City Council and the Tribal Council, would ensure additional mitigation would at a minimum offset the potential loss of tax revenue in the event that the Silver City Galleria were to be purchased by the tribe and taken off public tax rolls, Hoye said.
"The starting point has to be what we have the potential to get from the mall now," the mayor said.
Hoye said the idea for an amendment came about when he and Buffington were reviewing the new state-tribal compact that the governor and the Mashpee signed earlier in the week.
"We noticed right away the land description had changed," Hoye said. "We immediately contacted the governor's office and the tribe and voiced our displeasure and came to this agreement with the tribe to protect the city of Taunton in the event the tribe attempts to move the resort casino or do any gaming at the mall site in the future."
Fall River Mayor Will Flanagan, who is urging the state Gaming Commission to end the tribe's shot at exclusivity on the southeastern Massachusetts casino market and open the region to commercial casino applicants, suggested Thursday that the inclusion of the mall property in the compact suggests Taunton voters may have been misled when they approved a citywide ballot question last year to support a tribal casino.
"Although I respect Mayor Flanagan, he should worry about issues in Fall River," Hoye said.

Nowadays, I am studying on to upgrade my OCP certificate to 11G. Despite that none of the excellent data guard enhancements covered, exam topics are still very satisfactory to cover new features for a DBA of Oracle Database 11G. If you try what you read you can go deep new features too. One of them is the necessity of separate EM Repository backup for a possible downgrade. There is a new tool, under 11gORACLE_HOME/bin directory, called emdwgrd (enterprise manager downgrade) . It can backup your EM Repository before you upgrade and then restore it to the downgrade if you rollback the upgrade process. If you dont use this tool upgraded EM Repository cannot be used.
Here is how it works.
Before you start the actual upgrade (manual or DBUA) you ran the emdwgrd from new 11gORACLE_HOME/bin directory like below;
emdwgrd -save -sid old_SID -path save_directory
-sid is the SID of the database being upgraded
-path is the directory for the backup of em respository.
Path you choose must be emty otherwise you will get the error I got 🙂
|C:\oracle\product\product\11.1.0\db_1\BIN>emdwgrd -save -sid ORACOS -path C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\flash_recovery_area
Enter sys password for database ORACOS?
Error: C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\flash_recovery_area must be an empty directory.
Output of the command ran is like below
|C:\oracle\product\product\11.1.0\db_1\BIN>mkdir C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\flash_recovery_area\em_before_upgrade
C:\oracle\product\product\11.1.0\db_1\BIN>emdwgrd -save -sid ORACOS -path C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\flash_recovery_area\em_before_upgrade
Enter sys password for database ORACOS?
Tue Nov 11 11:19:44 2008 – Verify EM DB Control files … pass
Tue Nov 11 11:19:44 2008 – Validating DB Connection to ORACOS … pass

Tue Nov 11 11:19:49 2008 – Creating directory … created

Tue Nov 11 11:25:48 2008 – Starting DB Control … started
Tue Nov 11 11:26:28 2008 – Dump directory was dropped successfully.
As you see it creates a temporary database directory in the database and dump the file using this directory including sysman schema export. After everything is finished it drops the temp database directory.
Directory structure of the backup is like below. It has backup and logs directories
Directory of C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\flash_recovery_area\em_before_upgrade12/11/2008 11:39 backup
12/11/2008 11:38 logs
0 File(s) 0 bytes
4 Dir(s) 8,887,455,744 bytes free
In backup directory there are backups files including sysman schema export and copy of sysman and servername_ORACLESID directories related with EM under ORACLE_HOME directory
Directory of C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\flash_recovery_area\em_before_upgrade\backup11/11/2008 11:25 13,000,704 EXPORT.DMP
11/11/2008 11:25 30,461 export.log
11/11/2008 11:21 sysman
In the logs directory you can view the logs of the backup proces
Directory of C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\flash_recovery_area\em_before_upgrade\logs11/11/2008 11:21 115,427 copysave.log

11/11/2008 11:22 0 export_dmp.log
11/11/2008 11:26 2,251 sqlsave.log
After this finish you can do your upgrade. Lets assume that you did your upgrade and decide to go back. After you finish the database downgrade steps you can now do post downgrade process for EM Repository. To do this you must first run the emca utility from 11gORACLE_HOME to copy the respository files to new oracle home.
|C:\oracle\product\product\11.1.0\db_1\BIN>emca -restore dbSTARTED EMCA at 12-Nov-2008 11:57:06

Enter the following information:
As you see on the warning EM version must still be downgraded. When I connected to EM I can only be able to manage non EM specific actions as mentioned (sorry I couldnt upload the file 😦 proxy issues )
Its time to finish EM Downgrade operation. Command is similar with two difference we need to use -restore option instead of -save and we need to give default temporary tablespace name for sysman schema. If we don't give temp tablespace it will fail.
emdwgrd -save -sid old_SID -path save_directory -tempTablespace temptablespace
|C:\oracle\product\product\11.1.0\db_1\BIN>emdwgrd -restore -sid ORACOS -path C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\flash_recovery_area\em_before
_upgrade -tempTablespace TEMP
Enter sys password for database ORACOS?********
Enter sysman password for database ORACOS?
As you see sysman schema is dropped and recreated again. All your scheduler jobs will be restored so you don't need to create them again.
I hope you wont need to downgrade but its nice to know how to.

LU claims alumni victory
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Lipscomb women's soccer team held an alumni game last weekend at the Lipscomb Soccer complex in which the current squad beat the alumni 4-0.
The Lady Bisons scored two goals in each half. Freshman Caroline Chadwell and senior Andie Thornton each had a goal in the first half while freshman Leah Wood and junior TA Summers added strikes in the second half.
The Lady Bisons continue their exhibition slate with a game in "The battle of the Boulevard" on Friday Aug. 10 with a 6 p.m. matchup with Belmont. The Lady Bisons look to take two in a row from the Bruins as last season LU secured their first victory against their rivals in a 2-1 win.

Puppy in the wikipedia
Ever used wikipedia?
Well a lot of people do.
I think I got these details right:
not sure of date started . . .
However not sure of the technical details in the later tables - maybe someone will add - just press edit . . . no need to register
This is not right - Puppy is not based on slack . . .
# Puppy Linux: A unique mini distribution which boots 2-3 times faster than other mini distributions due to being based on Slackware and not Knoppix. Runs well under low end PCs - even under 32MB RAM - with its ultra-minimalistic approach, where Damn Small Linux or Feather Linux would crawl. Contains very minimal set of utilities; e.g. earlier versions used busybox instead of bash to provide command line support. Managing the system to install new software requires more experience from average user. Uses Jwm windows-a-like window manager. See track record

I don't know the total history of Puppy, but from my knowledge it was compiled on Mandrake until recently, then moved to Vector. As such, there are some programs simply taken from them. Most of the scripts and backend was written from scratch by Barry, though, so it's really not "based" on anything. I do remember reading somewhere that slackware was a good distro to snag packages from to use in Puppy, but I don't remember anyone claiming it was based on it.

OK, Barry did create Puppy Linux from scratch but he "borrowed" from other people's work.
"Up to and including Puppy version 1.0.2, I was compiling applications in Mandrake 9.2 and the kernel in Slackware 9.1. With Puppy 1.0.3 I have migrated to Vector Linux 5.0STD, for compiling both applications and kernel."
Now we can compile w/o either....

I'm not being nasty here but Linux distros are all based on 'borrowed' stuff, the kernel from Linus, a lot of the tools from the GNU team and various other stuff from all over. This is what the spirit of the Free Software community is all about, sharing code.
Anyone who wants to take the time to compile a kernel and collect the tools to suit their requirements can build their own version of Linux, this is what Barry has done and it is no trivial thing, just try it yourself sometime.
Unix is what all Linux distros are based on, not the code but the concept and in actual fact it all started with minix.
If most people who wish to write articles on a subject did some in depth research into the subject it would go a long way to help creating articles that are not misleading or riddled with halfbaked conceptions of the subject.
Then again I suppose if it were not for such articles all the people here who are discussing this subject would not be having this bonding session so I suppose " Roll on more articles ! ".
The history of Linux is a matter of public record.
I'm finished.

Post subject: Right
Yes, Ian, thanks for pointing that out.
I guess when people talk of "distro", they refer to how the packaging of the "borrowed stuff" was done. So in this sense, Barry did an original approach, whereas others, like DSL, used Knoppix's way in creating a live CD.
So for example, when we talk about the packaging and use of usr_cram.fs and similar files, it is entirely Barry's method, but the tool for making usr_cram.fs is itself borrowed (the squash file system?). And another such FS, the compiling suite, was borrowed from Vector and partly from Mandrake (if I remember right). [Vector is Slackware-based and Mandrake took off from the works of Red Hat.]
Now, if that article has to be corrected, perhaps this portion has to be deleted:
Contains very minimal set of utilities; e.g. earlier versions used busybox instead of bash to provide command line support. Managing the system to install new software requires more experience from average user.
since even compiling utilities (and CD/DVD rewriting) already exists in Puppy, and both pupget and dotpups can be installed easily by the user.
Edit: A listing of all work that are used by Puppy (both original and borrowed) can perhaps make future articles about Puppy more accurate.

In disaster-prone Bangladesh, a UNICEF-supported programme helps children stay in school

In Bangladesh, a UNICEF-supported programme helps children stay...
Low-lying Bangladesh is one of the countries most affected by climate change, and the people who live in the Chars – small islands created by floods or erosion in the vast Ganges delta – are the most vulnerable of all.
The UNICEF-supported Education in Emergencies and Post-Crisis Transition programme, also known as Back on Track, is an innovative programme designed to rebuild education systems, often in countries working to make the transition from crisis to normal development. Back on Track also provides comprehensive instruction on disaster risk reduction, so students and teachers know how to stay safe during emergencies.
To watch a new UNICEF video on how the Back on Track programme has helped Bangladeshi children stay in school, please click here!

It��s over. Done. Kaput. Finished. Cameron Payne has been traded to the Bulls during the NBA trade deadline, putting an end to one of the best things in the league: Russ and Payne dance duets.
It��s sad for all of us as fans, but Cheap NFL Jerseys Nike spare a thought for Russell Westbrook. The poor dude is only now getting over the loss of Kevin Durant, now he��s going to have to keep playing without his buddy. It��s just so sad.
We only had two years to appreciate this and it was snatched away by a trade��s cruel grasp. We will never forget you.
He was expected to build off that monster season in 2015 and declare for the NFL draft soon after, but disaster struck. He tore his MCL in the first game of the season, then noticed excessive fatigue during the rehab process. Doctors diagnosed him with Hodgkin��s lymphoma, a form of cancer that often attacks the lymph nodes but has a survival rate of 86 percent.
Conner missed the rest of the 2015 season, then Jerseys Supply underwent 12 rounds of chemotherapy treatment before being declared cancer free in May 2016.
That cleared him to return to the Pittsburgh MLB Jerseys China backfield, where he and Quadree Henderson teamed to comprise one of the nation��s most explosive rushing attacks. Conner rushed for more than 1,000 yards in his return and scored 16 touchdowns, establishing himself as a potential mid-round draft MLB Authentic Jerseys pick in the process.
Thursday��s good news will help erase any red flags Conner��s past health Cheap NBA Jerseys problems may have raised. The dynamic young running back proved just how strong he was by beating Hodgkin��s lymphoma. Now, officially cancer-free for the second straight year, taking on the NFL should be easy.

2013 Dean's Scholarship Receptions
This Spring, the CSPP community came together at each campus to recognize and celebrate this year's student scholarship recipients. Thanks to the generous contributions of our CSPP alumni and friends, along with our mission-driven scholarship earmarks, we were able to provide almost $2 million in scholarship support to over 425 students this year.
Each of the campus receptions celebrated student accomplishments and brought the community together in a different way. In Sacramento, Dr. Amy Ahfeld, CSPP alumna and President of the Sacramento Valley Psychological Association, spoke about her experience after graduating from CSPP, the value of getting involved in professional associations while you are a student, and other words of wisdom. In Fresno, CSPP alumna and San Joaquin Valley Psychological Association President-Elect Dr. Marcelle Pratt spoke about the challenges and opportunities for psychologists, and shared tips on how to take leadership roles in the community both locally and statewide.
In San Francisco, we honored our scholarship recipients and celebrated the retirement of Professor Emeritus Dr. Paul Werner, after more than 30 years of service on the CSPP faculty. We also announced the new Paul Werner Dissertation Award for Innovation and Creativity.
All of the events were excellent opportunities for our CSPP community to spend time together celebrating scholarship, connecting generations of CSPP alumni, students and friends, and enjoying an informal gathering.
Congratulations once again to this year's CSPP scholarship recipients!

Bytes to Gigabits conversion
Enter bytes value you wish to convert:
Bytes conversion
Byte is a unit of information that commonly consists of eight bits. It might sometimes be confused with octet but is not actually standardized. Byte is used to encode one character which could use other than 8 bits based on hardware dependency.
Gigabits conversion
Gigabit, Gbit or Gb, is a prefixed form of bit, used to denote multiples of the bit. At the end of 2007, standards and government authorities proposed binary prefixes standard for binary multiplies in order to avoid confusion, ie kilobit to denote 1000 bits and kibibit - 1024 bits.

so first its a lie.. then its a mistake? you don't even know, do you?
Excuse me?
The word "mistake" can refer to a lie. My story, nor my opinion, has not changed.
Brainwashing runs deep.
You are making a case for "proof" where there is none. There are two possibilities that probably both have some merit. Are you entirelly unable to see that?

Terrorism No New Topic to Presidential Elections
It's Election Day, and there has been a lot of talk in the news lately about terrorism influencing the current and last two presidential elections. But although sometimes it feels like it's a relatively new political issue, the fear of terrorism has been part of the American political discussion since our nation's founding. During the presidential election of 1800, terrorism and its prevention were hot topics, and part of what cost Pres. John Adams his reelection.
During Adams's presidency, America was involved in the Quasi-War with France from 1798 through 1800. France was a great ally to the United States during the American Revolution, but much changed in the intervening years. The United States made peace with Great Britain in 1783, and several years later the French monarchy collapsed. Revolutionary France declared war on Great Britain, and Great Britain joined a coalition of European monarchies that aimed at containing the French Revolution. The United States remained neutral in the conflict. In addition, the U.S. government refused to repay debts owed to France from the American Revolution, claiming that they were owed to the French monarchy, which no longer existed. Ignoring American neutrality, French privateers began seizing American merchant ships in the West Indies. This led to an undeclared war between the United States and France—the Quasi-War.
Pres. Adams and the Federalist Party supporters aligned with Great Britain. They viewed the French Revolution as mob rule and resented what they saw as foreign intervention in American domestic politics. They also feared the threat of possible invasion. Adams signed the Alien and Sedition Acts into law in 1798. The four laws targeted French immigrants and sympathizers to the French cause, but also foreigners in general and anyone who criticized the government. The Alien and Sedition Acts increased the residency requirement for citizenship from five to fourteen years and empowered the president to deport aliens "dangerous to the peace and safety of the United States" at will. No one ever was prosecuted or deported as a "dangerous" alien and the law expired in 1800, but it had a chilling effect on resident aliens. A separate law that allowed the president to restrain or remove enemy aliens in wartime was the only act that had wide support in congress (and still is in effect today), but was not used by Adams because the U.S. never formally declared war on France. The laws also limited the freedom of the press, a sentiment that Adams had strongly supported as author of the Massachusetts Constitution. The Sedition Act gave the government broad power to suppress public attacks on the government and its officials, and, as a practical matter, allowed the Federalists to prosecute their political opponents. The Sedition Act also had a fixed term and ended on the last day of Adams's presidential term in March 1801.
When the Federalists attempted to use the Alien and Sedition Acts to silence their opposition, they met strong opposition from the Democratic-Republican Party, a party more closely aligned with the ideals of the French Revolution and under the leadership of Vice President Thomas Jefferson. Most newspapers of the day were partisan, and when Republican newspapers harshly criticized the Adams administration for its handling of French relations, fourteen authors and editors were tried under the new Sedition Act. Playwright and newspaperman James Burke, Vermont congressman Matthew Lyon, and newspapermen Thomas and Abijah Adams were among those indicted for seditious libel.
The 1800 presidential election was a bitter continuation of the previous presidential election. One of the Democratic Republicans' chief criticisms of the Federalist Party was of its efforts to centralize and increase governmental power, illustrated by the passage of the Alien and Section Acts and the resulting infringement on individual rights. Republicans were not necessarily against prosecutions for seditious libel, but believed they should take place in state rather than federal courts.
The Republicans won the election of 1800 and, at least in part because of the unpopular acts, Adams became a one-term president. He was succeeded by Jefferson who, in his conciliatory first inaugural speech, said that "…every difference of opinion is not a difference of principle. We have called by different names, brethren of the same principle. WE ARE ALL REPUBLICANS; WE ARE ALL FEDERALISTS." His administration too soon would be at war with foreign "terrorists," in this case the Barbary pirates, who attacked and kidnapped American sailors in the Mediterranean.
During the recent presidential debates, Pres. Barack Obama and former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney addressed their own positions on terrorism and homeland security. Although the threat may look slightly different now, with a greater focus on foreign terrorists rather than internal subversion, it's nothing new to American politics. Just ask John Adams—and Thomas Jefferson. And don't forget to vote!

We know that...And i have no problem with it until the last 4-6 episodes...The happenings changed my mind about the whole thing. Maybe since Ami become an "all seeing eye" and for Ryuji got closer to Minorin...

Taiga is NOTHING like Shana or Louise. NOTHING.
Take the shipper goggles off.
Taiga's life sucked up until she met Ryuuji. Without Ryuuji, her life will continue to suck.
She needs him. She deserves his love, after all the crap she's gone through.
Minorin and Ami don't have near the emotional problems, nor do they need him.
They want him, which is very different.
Really, they're further apart than before.
And Ami's been an "all-seeing eye" since, like, the beach episodes.

Minorin suffered and suffers as much as Taiga but she somehow live with it(her background is mistery but we know that she has negative iopinion about her parents and she grabs every occasion to stay away from home).
And Ami is alone too. She had no one., because everyone admired her but their feelings were shallow. Now she has some ppl who like her as she is, so she has little problems now(but then the same can be said about Taiga considering the life...not her pain because of her love...The thing that Ami despite her earlier efforts is totally ignored by Ryuji can be pretty painfull too)
Even with a Ryuji X Minorin pairing they can still support Taiga.
And how not similar?
similar looks, similar violent tsundere-ness. Not to mention that Shana must deal with more sorrow(perhaps she's got a Wilhellmina and Alastor...but Taiga got Minorin as support. But somehow she can't help her...it's the same mistery as the one with Nagissa in Clannad...she have her devoted loving parents...it's a mistery that they couldn't support her well...i mean to become strong. Why both of them needed a "boyfriend" for it?).
Perhaps there IS many things that not similar to Shana, but generaly she can be considered a "Shana-clone"(it's rude to call it that, but it i mean that Shana was maybe the first violent loli-tsundere with some domina attributes...it's mnore like an archtype than direct copying tough) just as Louise.

Minori isnt fighting for Ryuuji (as Ami pretends to be) she is fighting for her own goals in life.
Try to understand the meaning of Tsundere and Loli... you're mixing wrong concepts.
Taiga might be little, but that isn't mean to be Loli, Taiga might be a spoiled girl, but isn't mean to be Tsundere. Loli are the girls of Kodomo no Jikan, and Tsundere is Sawachika Eri. Taiga can't be compared to none of them.
And no way she is near to Shana... at all.

How did you figure that out?
Did you actually see what was going through my heart?
Did you witness my entire past?
You know nothing about me so do not label me telling me what I need and what I want.
In a way I think this is one of the core themes of this story, don't draw conclusion to other people's emotion.
Taiga said it, Ryuji said it, Sumire said it, Ami said it and Minori said it too.

Ami has her mom. Minorin has her parents and her brother, regardless of her relationship with them.
Taiga had no one, not even Minorin, really.
Ami and Minorin were not abandoned by their emotionally abusive parents parents, time and time again. Ami and Minorin weren't anemic and barely surviving alone.
The similarities are superficial. Taiga isn't a tsundere.
She's nothing like them. She's infinitely more complex.
Taiga's a loli, but not a tsundere.
She's a violent bitch, but what sets her apart is her REASONS for being a violent bitch.
Minorin was doing just fine on her own before she met Ryuuji. (In fact, I think the emotional turmoil might be making her personal problems WORSE...)
Ami's gotten a lot better, but all she really needs is friends, not a lover. And she already has those.
Taiga, on the other hand...
And we can make conclusions about the emotions of people involved in the story simply because we, as the viewers/readers, are effectively omniscient.
Or would you rather us say nothing at all?

If you're sexually interested in any of the girls in Kodomo no Jikan, you're a pedophile.
If you're sexually interested in Taiga, you're a lolicon.
Rather different.
Oh, and Taiga IS underage, in the US, for that matter.

Even in the US, 17 is legal in many states.... just fyi...
but people call my wife "loli" and she's my age, very small, but has "boobage" as the anime fans are likely to say... its a very loosely defined term that gets a lot of mileage in forums (sometimes as an insult from certain factions).

Lets get back on topic people, this is a Minori discussion thread.
"Ryuji, I believe its your fault for falling in love with me causing me to have feelings for you and as a result screw my personal and emotional life up."
You can't imagine Minori saying that.

Well, she could say that she has dreams, and in order to accimplish them, she and Ryuuji are never to be together...yeah, that would be the definition of vanity, just what Ryuuji needs to get over Minori and consider what to do with the other two.
P.S: I can't imagine Ryuuji would be so selfish as to ask her if he means more to her than her dreams...

18 is "fully legal" and it basically means adulthood in the "Western World".

And then there's Canada:
Given the number of teens and 20-somethings on this forum, this subject seems remarkably confusing for many.
Back to Minori, she is like many Japanese youth -- they have direction and goal. "Love" at the wrong time can interfere with that. High school romances often fade on college entry -- distance makes it impossible (that was one of the big obstacles in Love*Com). If one chooses a college to be with the other, that places undue obligation on the other. Sumire has the same quandary - Minori is just another example of that. On the other hand, Ryuuji and Taiga do not seem to have expressed goals they're just riding the education conveyer belt.

After all those well-intentioned New Year's resolutions have yielded to the force of habit, many of the nation's 79 million obese adults will have a day of reckoning with their primary care physicians.
Lose weight and get active, the doctor will order, or risk developing diabetes. Then the MD will scribble a prescription.
For most patients, the prescribed treatment will not be a pill. It will be a 12-week program aimed at preventing Type 2 diabetes by getting obese adults to shed as little as 10 pounds and exercise for a little more than 20 minutes a day.
That regimen -- the Diabetes Prevention Program -- may soon become the blockbuster prescription medicine you've never heard of. In 2013, it is poised to become the envy of pharmaceutical companies, a new rival to programs such as Weight Watchers, and a target of opportunity for healthcare entrepreneurs.
Led by a trained coach, it is a testament to the power of a mentor and of setting modest goals in spurring healthful behavior. And it may be a crucial first test of the Affordable Care Act's focus on preventive health.
