Daviss: lol we have season tickets so there is plenty of time and the night time zoo lights will be up for awhile
AYWalton: Howdy Daviss, hey there SoulChile.
Seventies Soulchild: Did you see the thread on surnames where the woman was having difficulty finding the parents of her great grand aunt?
Daviss: Hellooo there AYWalton!
Seventies Soulchild: Hello AYWalton.
Daviss: I think so seventies, is that the one you commented on
Seventies Soulchild: yes.
AYWalton: I just read the thread.
Daviss: How's it going with you AYWalton
AYWalton: Perhaps she is a beginner.
Seventies Soulchild: I thought maybe she could've done more research.
AYWalton: going fine Daviss, and you?
Daviss: Good advice though
AYWalton: sometimes folks want things given to them---and other times they don't have a strategy on how to find the answers.
Daviss: its going lol
AYWalton: Her family was from North Carolin, and NC Death records are online.

vkn: Heyyyyyyyyy Seventies
AYWalton: vital records from a state like NC are a real treasure. hope you had a nice holiday, Vkn!!!!!!
vkn: Heyyyyyyyy Daviss Very nice
Daviss: and when they don't know what to do, frustration sets in
AYWalton: that's great!!! I rested all day yesterday, I was exhausted. lol
Seventies Soulchild: If they don't know they should read a guide. Plenty are available online for free.
vkn: Who did the Black Friday thing ?
Daviss: Ha!!
AYWalton: the lady with the question did not have a strategy in mind on how to find the parents of the grandchildren listed in the household. not me, vkn. I never do.
Seventies Soulchild:
vkn: lol nor i or me
AYWalton: I find the madness to rush out and buy buy buy, to be very bizarre.
Seventies Soulchild: Let me tell you, I faced less danger being on active duty service... lol
AYWalton: lol, I hear ya SoulChile. and there are lots of acts of violence cropping up from Walmart to Costco.
Seventies Soulchild: Yes AYWalton, and really for what???
Daviss: always is this time of the year anyway
AYWalton: is it really all that necessary? Sometimes I think folks have just lost their darn minds!
vkn: Peeps like notion of getting something for nothing
Seventies Soulchild: Most things sold at this time of year are junk anyway.
AYWalton: I guess. But standing in line, in the cold to rush when the doors open, kind of a strange cattle call.
vkn: Daviss I am really enjoying the Lincoln University Alumni Directory
Daviss: they do that same thing here in Feb for the annual book sale
Seventies Soulchild: Lincoln University, PA or MO??
AYWalton: which Lincoln is it vkn---there are two, you know. One in Pennslyvania--(that was the first one) and one in Missouri.
vkn: Did you see it AYW
Daviss: thats good vkn. I re looked again hoping I could find someone
AYWalton: I have not seen it, vkn.
Daviss: Penn
AYWalton: googling for it right now.
Daviss: the link is on the forum AY
vkn: on SOCI AYW link her up Daviss
Seventies Soulchild: That's the school Kwame Nkrumah attended. I wonder if he is listed in the records?
Daviss: one min
AYWalton: I see one from 1946.
vkn: yes
AYWalton: yes, Nkrumah attended the one in Pennsylvania.
Seventies Soulchild: Where can I find the link?
AYWalton: there is a building named after him and after Azikwe.
Daviss: http://tinyurl.com/cf58nop/
AYWalton: Nkruman-Azikwe Hall is right at the entrance.
vkn: Daviss will link it from SOCI
Seventies Soulchild: ok thanks Daviss
Daviss: welcome

Daviss: I posted it the other day AYWalton
Seventies Soulchild: Wow its 9.35 mb large...
AYWalton: the PDF image that I am looking at is great!
vkn: AYW she also found Meharry and Fisk

Daviss: yes they are vkn..I like lol
AYWalton: these are great!
Seventies Soulchild: oh goodness... 12.28 mb
Daviss: lol lol seventies
AYWalton: Perhaps there should be a compilation of sites with these yearbooks and directories.
vkn: I agree
AYWalton: from both institutions and businesses like the GreenBook, and others. (might make a nice Quick Sheet, vkn)
Seventies Soulchild: I wonder if Alcorn state Univ has one?
AYWalton: (something to put in the think tank or the project list.)
vkn: yes AYW
Daviss: I wish I could find one for Paul Quinn and Bishop
Seventies Soulchild: Ok I've heard of Paul Quinn, but not Bishop. I presume Bishop is in northern TX
vkn: heyyyyyyyyyy bearnut
Daviss: I did find a Quinn Blog and wrote a query but no answer yet
Seventies Soulchild: Hello bearnut2
bearnut2: Hey y'all!
Daviss: Bishop started in Marshall Texas seventies then moved to Dallas.. Thats when the trouble began lol
vkn: AYW Victoria came looking for you again
AYWalton: I just noticed that Christian Fleetwood attended Ashmun Institute--in 1859-60s.
Daviss: Heyyy there bearnut2!

Seventies Soulchild: Mine would be gone, but I didn't make any corn bread.
bearnut2: ok, yall are making me hungry...
vkn: bearnut did you say that you are a evernote expert
Daviss: do like Tyler and use a spoon lol like soup
bearnut2: not an expert vkn but I do use it and love it! lol
AYWalton: there is a webinar (or explorinar as he calls it) on evernote. I think Thomas Macentee did it.
Daviss: oops
AYWalton: I just created an account with Dropbox for myself.
Seventies Soulchild: dang it..
AYWalton: Now I have to upload some of my presentations to it.
bearnut2: oh thats cool AYW where can I find it?
Daviss: oh really AYWalton!
vkn: can you tutor me evernote. I love the results but having probs getting me to work it bearnut
bearnut2: sure thing vkn
AYWalton: I think it is on his site---High Def Genealogy. Let me check.
bearnut2: are you having problems saving notes to it vkn?
vkn: I have a dropbox acct but not using it
bearnut2: I have dropbox too but evernote is much easier to use for me
Daviss: and why is that vkn??
AYWalton: I created it for backing up documents.
vkn: Whole new concept daviss for old brain
AYWalton: read a good article about how it can come in handy---such as arriving at a place for a presentation and realizing you have left your flash drive at home, or brought the wrong one. What do you do?
Seventies Soulchild: nice
AYWalton: If you can get an internet connection, you log into Dropbox, pull out the presentation and download it---and voila---there is your presentation! It is a cloud. and they have 2 Gigs of space for free. and there is a way to get up to 8 Gigs for free.
vkn: I use iCloud with no prob bearnut but need a live walk thru with evernote
AYWalton: I am trying to see if I can find Thomas' Evernote presentation. I watched it, but have forgotten everything. lol
bearnut2: Evernote works pretty much the same way but I use it mostly when Im researching online to save stuff of interest
Daviss: brb
bearnut2: ok--when is a good time for you vkn? Im ususally available during the day.
vkn: Send me the link if you remember AYW
AYWalton: Here you are, vkn: http://hidefgen.com/recorded-explorinar-evernote/

AYWalton: The exporinar is free to view.
vkn: Thankee mam

AYWalton: you are welcome! Greetings, HistoryBuff!
deannie: Hi Historybuff

HistoryBuff: Hey AYWalton, Bearnut2, Daviss, Deannie, Seventies and Vkn. How goes it?

AYWalton: wassup Khathu!
HistoryBuff: I'm sleepy but I think I can hang on for a while.
Khathu: nothing much
AYWalton: did you have a good holiday Khathu?
bearnut2: I know what you mean HistoryBuff ! I went to the library today and was struggling lol nodding off at the microfilm reader
HistoryBuff: :}
vkn: Did yall notice the "survey" posting from Rich on GenHist
AYWalton: You were too tired, bearnut2
Seventies Soulchild: lol too much turkey
Daviss: oh no bearnut2 lol
HistoryBuff: I can relate.
bearnut2: lol too much turkey and too much workey I worked 44 hours in 4 days
AYWalton: You mean about Uncle Tom, vkn?
vkn: workey lol lol lol
bearnut2: lol
vkn: yes AYW seems to be fresh bait
Daviss: what was that about?
HistoryBuff: Interesting link to Explorinar.
Seventies Soulchild: Well bearnut2, did you get anything interesting?
AYWalton: that guy is on many lists asking questions---he is supposed to be a reporter.
Daviss: oh
AYWalton: He has asked such questions for years on many lists.
bearnut2: at the library Seventies Soulchild ?
Seventies Soulchild: yes
AYWalton: of course we know that many folks lurk, get info and then publish and become authorities on a subject.
vkn: I can tell that from his email address AYW Seems the least he might do is introduce self
bearnut2: I had 2 microfilm I'd ordered from FHC but had no luck with them. I have two more still coming that I hope are more successful.
Khathu: My holiday was okay
Seventies Soulchild: ok
vkn: Yes 'deed they do ayw
Khathu: I had a couple of family emergencies though
AYWalton: I wonder how many careers AfriGeneas has launched. lol sorry to hear about the emergencies Khathu.
bearnut2: family emergencies are not good Khathu
Seventies Soulchild:
Khathu: i will be in California for a week to deal with them
Daviss: oh my Khathu
Seventies Soulchild: Hope everything goes smoothly, Khathu
Khathu: just hoping for a full and speedy recovery at this point
Seventies Soulchild: The side eye is for the launched careers from Afrigeneas
bearnut2: lol SS
AYWalton: I think that I shall ask the question, vkn.
HistoryBuff: Wishing you well, Khathu.
Daviss: For sure Khathu.....
vkn: Prayers go up Khathu
deannie: I'm just learning today...I'm working on a crochet blanket that I have to finish
vkn: Good idea AYW to pose question
bearnut2: good luck deannie--I think the only crochet project I ever finished was a potholder
Daviss: oh deannie, thx for hooking me up with Marlene
AYWalton: seems like all he had to do was to use Google.
bearnut2: lol
deannie: no problem she's my gen buddy
AYWalton: several articles speak about the minstrel shows and how Uncle Tom characters are used to mock black folks.
bearnut2: I thought that too AYW--about google
vkn: and he assumes that Tom is viewed in the negative
HistoryBuff: Good for you Deannie. My sister-in-law presented her mother with a quilt she finished using her father's neckties.
AYWalton: but we know---folks get leads from us, then go out and follow those leads as if they are authorities!
vkn: indeed LOL we be incubators lol
deannie: The twins Lettie and Nettie my beautiful quilt...the last one of their sister last week
bearnut2: lol vkn
Daviss: not understanding Deannie
bearnut2: I thought maybe it was just me lol
Daviss: are the twins guideing you guiding
vkn: Talk at y'all 2morry Love to each and all
bearnut2: take care vkn
AYWalton: take care
Seventies Soulchild: So let's talk about Alabama.
bearnut2: sweet home Alabama...
deannie: Do you know the twins that is in the AAGHSC
Daviss: I have heard them mentioned
AYWalton: what were you saying about them, Deannie?
Seventies Soulchild: I am having some trouble trying to figure out what records they have at the county level and what is at the Dept of Archives and history
AYWalton: you mentioned a quilt then something about a sister or the last remaining sister.
deannie: That they to beautiflul quilt...they do a lot of genealogy ones
Seventies Soulchild: I know every state is different, but I really want to understand their rules.
Daviss: ohhhh I see deannie
AYWalton: you mean that they make beautiful quilts. and genealogy quilts? Well think about affairs that would be unique only to one county.
bearnut2: Me too Seventies Soulchild -- I really wish I could get down there
AYWalton: the only exception might be land records.
deannie: Yes, one of their sister passed....not one of twins (Lettie & Nettie) yes
AYWalton: ahhh ok, now I see what you mean---they had a sister who died recently.
Daviss: sorry to hear that
Seventies Soulchild: I was told that the county maintains death records while ADAH does not.
AYWalton: so they are the only girls left is that correct?
deannie: Did you meet them at the conference
AYWalton: Lettie and Nettie were both at the conference.
deannie: yes
AYWalton: what state, SoulChile? I hope to do some backing up of data now that I have a Dropbox account. Uploading things to a cloud is a good way of saving data for sure. I also have a portable Hard Drive which is useful as well.
bearnut2: AYWalton what kind of affairs would be unique only to one county?
Daviss: I think Soulchild was talking Bamer
AYWalton: County land records, county court records,
Khathu: Has any one heard of confederate citizen records
AYWalton: I would not expect chancery court records from Sebastian County Arkansas (one of my counties) to be kept in Little Rock and the Arkansas History Commission.
bearnut2: oh ok you mean particular county records not records that only one county could have
AYWalton: They keep state records---business affairs of the state. I mean records unique to one county only. and to the business of that county.
bearnut2: gotcha-- brain fart!
AYWalton: Like the National Archives---they don't keep records of state counties, or small town records. they record the National business.
bearnut2: I think they have them at Fold 3 Khathu
AYWalton: and records like death records---well the state Archives has no interest in the records of individual people like that.
Khathu: they are similar to the southern claim commission
AYWalton: Furthermore that is what the Office of Vital Records does.
bearnut2: yeah, I think I've seen them at Fold 3
AYWalton: they maintain Birth/Marriage/Death, not the State Archives.
Seventies Soulchild: Sorry was checking on the kids, they have a guest spending the night.
AYWalton: and Vital Records offices are apart from the state Archives. they are state run and managed, but not a part of the state archives.
bearnut2: so you've got an extra lil' darlin' huh SS?
Seventies Soulchild: Ok I was asking about Alabama.. little, these kids are all 6 ft and above. lol
AYWalton: SoulChile is there an office of Vital Records for the state of Alabama?
bearnut2: lol
Seventies Soulchild: Yes I believe so, AYWalton.
AYWalton: I just found the answer. http://adph.org/vitalrecords/index.asp?id=1560 they are part of the Alabama dept of Health beginning around 1908 or so. the state Archives would not have them, as that is not "state business".
Seventies Soulchild: bookmarked Same goes for Oklahoma records, I think I'm not using the right type of query.
bearnut2: where are you looking Seventies?
Seventies Soulchild: I am looking for death records there too. In Muskogee.'
bearnut2: I'm sorry--I mean where are you querying?
Seventies Soulchild: I have been snooping around in the city business directory and found out some interesting things. I had an uncle who worked for Manhattan construction and a cousin who worked for Midvalley railroad.
Daviss: was this in Muskogee
Seventies Soulchild: yes
AYWalton: just google "Death records" and the name of the state. and when did your Oklahoma person die?
Seventies Soulchild: ok thanks AYWalton Not sure after 1960
AYWalton: Using Google creatively can open up many doors. there is probably no directory for deaths that recent. Write to the Vital Records office in Oklahoma City.
Seventies Soulchild: ok
AYWalton: the address will be online.
bearnut2: Maybe she can call them?
AYWalton: Vital records office Oklahoma Dept of health 1000 Northeast Tenth St. Oklahoma city OK 73117 4-5-271-4040 make the area cod4 405 405 (I will get it right!)
Khathu: good night everyone
Seventies Soulchild: Thank you AYWalton. You must write to them a lot.. lol
AYWalton: night Khathu Nope. I just googled. Have not used them in years.
Seventies Soulchild: oh
AYWalton: Last death record I got was more than 10 years ago, or more. I just googled Death Records, Oklahoma.
Daviss: no more ss records for 100 yrs
Seventies Soulchild: I had read something about that.
AYWalton: yes, the deceased has to have been born 100 years ago, so that the "authorities" can feel confident that the deceased person's parents are no longer living. amazing!!
Daviss: I procrastinate to much'
AYWalton: lol well now you have a longer wait.
Seventies Soulchild: omg
Daviss: I always kept saying I will and now I cant
bearnut2: geez!
deannie: I going to run so I can finish my blanket...have a great nite
Seventies Soulchild: nite deannie
Daviss: nite deannie
bearnut2: you too deannie
AYWalton: well I better skip out as well folks.
Daviss: nite AY
AYWalton: Have a good evening everyone.
Daviss: u2
AYWalton: nite all.
bearnut2: I hadn't planned to order anymore since they upped the price to $27 nite AY
Daviss: Now you cant at all bearnut
Seventies Soulchild: Where was this bearnut2?
bearnut2: I got a bunch when they were $7
Daviss: that was the price for awhile seventies
bearnut2: The SS-5 that you could order --application for SS #
Seventies Soulchild: ok Well that will work for my older relatives.
Daviss: and if you sent in the 27 dollars they wont return it either
bearnut2: now that sucks Daviss
Daviss: I know
Seventies Soulchild: lol you know that sounds just like the government... lol
bearnut2: sure does! lol most of the folks that I would want one for should meet the criteria anyway...
Daviss: I wonder if that also pertains to the RR numbers
HistoryBuff: I learned a great deal tonite. Got to run. Goodnite all.
Seventies Soulchild: RR numbers?
bearnut2: but I'm not planning to plop down $27 bucks on anyone any time soon
Seventies Soulchild: Nite historybuff
Daviss: how many years since they started SS numbers bearnut2
bearnut2: night HB
Daviss: nite
bearnut2: I think they started back before the 50's...let me check
Daviss: so that is not 100 yrs The RR number is diff than SS number seventies
bearnut2: The act was signed in 1935. No the person whose SS-5 you are ordering has to be over 100 years old and most folks didn't get a SS# until they were working--so around 20 years old at minimum
Daviss: yep they did not go out right away and get a card either especiallly those who lived in the country
bearnut2: so anyone I'd want to research would presumably fall into the correct timeframe. For instance, I don't need my grandma's (she's 86) but I might want her parents' SS5 so they would fall into the 100 year timeframe.
Daviss: most of my paternal line that I have DC's on had no SS numbers
Seventies Soulchild: ok
Daviss: even one of my gggrandfathers in Dallas had no number and he died in 52
bearnut2: but like I said--I gave up on ss5's when they upped the prices
Seventies Soulchild: Daviss, I noticed the same for some of my folks who lived in the country.
Daviss: but he was listed as a pensioner
Seventies Soulchild: I think that one uncle, Scott Washington had to get one because he worked for the WPA
Daviss: I am wondering how he and where he got a pension without a number
Seventies Soulchild: He had siblings who didn't get one, died in the 1960's
Daviss: even if he got an old age pension or welfare you would think he had some sort of number Is there some sort of link with names listed who worked for the WPA?
bearnut2: I don't know...looking now
Seventies Soulchild: I've been looking and I haven't found one yet. From what I was able to locate, teh records were kept locally.
Daviss: now that would be a goldmine!
Seventies Soulchild: I would love to know what my uncle Scott did for the WPA... Whatever it was required travel.
Daviss: usually they built bridges etc
Seventies Soulchild: He went from Oklahoma to Michigan to do the work
Daviss: Dams also. I had an uncle who helped with one here in AZ
bearnut2: found this: http://www.archives.gov/research/guide-fed-records/groups/069.html
Seventies Soulchild: is this an RG, bearnut2?
Daviss: thanks bearnut2
bearnut2: yes
Daviss: hmmm
bearnut2: Hopefully they will have records of the different projects and people... you're welcome Daviss
Seventies Soulchild: Michigan has their records online.
Daviss: appreciate that bearnut2
Seventies Soulchild: thakns bearnut2 now if I could only type thanks.. lol
Daviss: Ha!
bearnut2: lol
Daviss: question bearnut2
bearnut2: shoot
Seventies Soulchild: ok bookmarked
Daviss: when you download to Genmatch is the first person listed the closest person to you from 23andme or is it combines with FTDNA
bearnut2: Gedmatch? Yes, the people are listed in order of relatedness oh--it is 23andme and FTdna combined
Daviss: I see
bearnut2: You can tell which is which by their user number if it starts with M its 23andme, if it starts with F its FTdna
Daviss: I have two names that are my matches on 23 but wondered about the 3rd person ohhhhh ok lol dumb me
bearnut2: If it starts with C its a 23andme/Ftdna combined file it took me a while to realize that too! lol
Daviss: my first two are M and my 3rd is F
Seventies Soulchild: zzzzzooooonnnnniiiinnnnggggg lol lol lol
Daviss: I was wondering where that person came from lol
bearnut2: lol
Seventies Soulchild: I hope you all find your genetic kinfolk... best of luck with that.
bearnut2: thanks SS! its fun!
Daviss: I have not done FF so I guess I should wait to download until I do hiuh
bearnut2: wait to download what?
Daviss: on Gedmatch I did my RIF raw
bearnut2: ok...
Daviss: 23 and me
bearnut2: but what are you waiting to download?
Daviss: but I only had my mtdna on FTDNA
bearnut2: ahhh...ok now i understand
Daviss: whew! lol
bearnut2: yeah, your Mtdna wont do you any good on gedmatch
Daviss: ok
bearnut2: it only accepts 23andme and Family Finder data
Daviss: I see Ancestry is getting into autosomal now
Seventies Soulchild: ok its late here in NY. I have to run. Have a great day all.
bearnut2: yeah--it'll be interesting to see how it goes and how much they charge have a good nite SS
Daviss: nite nite 7
bearnut2: If its reasonable, I'll probably buy in just because its Ancestry
Daviss: thats the only way I would if its reasonable
bearnut2: and they will definitely concentrate on the genealogy side of things
Daviss: I can't wait until my brothers is read They only got it on the 10th
bearnut2: I've got 2 aunts I'm waiting for and a great aunt that I'm gonna strangle if she doesnt send her kit in soon!
Daviss: oops 10th lol
bearnut2: She's been "sending it in" for 2 months now
Daviss: I have a cousin that I want also
bearnut2: I'm trying to get some more known distant cousins to test so I can figure out where my unknown cousins are coming from
Daviss: I sent out the call more than once but got no replies
bearnut2: I've narrowed down a few with my 2nd cousin 2x removed testing
Daviss: kinda tees me off but what can you do
bearnut2: I sent the info out but I don't know if any of them "bit". now I've got a few extra tests so I'm going to try to get em that way
Daviss: I have one kit can we change the name later
bearnut2: I know! I've had a couple tell me "oh yeah, I want to participate" and then all I hear are crickets yeah you can change the name when you register it
Daviss: ok I guess I will let you go bearnut2
bearnut2: well, guess I'd better hit the hay lol
Daviss: I thank you for the other
bearnut2: no prob--hopefully i'll get to it this week sometime have a good nite
Daviss: no problem ok night
bbenn: Hello Everyone!
Daviss: lol hi bbenn
bbenn: I am too late for the chat?
Daviss: you just missed everyone!
bbenn: I was busy helping someone find a historic land document.

WORCESTER, Mass. - MIT concluded its regular season schedule with a 1-0 defeat at the hands of New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference foe Worcester Polytechnic Institute on Sunday afternoon. The Engineers now head into the NEWMAC quarterfinals with a record of 6-10-0 (0-6 NEWMAC), while WPI finishes its regular season with an overall tally of 10-4-2 (3-2-1 NEWMAC).
The match was played on Sunday afternoon after high winds and torrential rain forced the game to be postponed from its original date of Saturday.
Chris Lyons had the lone strike of the game, burying his fourth goal of the season on an assist from Brandon Finzel. The tally came in the 63rd minute while WPI was aided by a gusty wind at its back.
It wasn't a shortage of chances that led to the low score line, but rather stellar play from each sides' goalkeeper. WPI's Brian Catalano stopped a penalty kick in the 26th minute, while Tech's Tom Caldwell made a sprawling save following a corner kick on the stroke of halftime.
Catalano had three saves in earning the victory, pushing his record to an impressive 10-1-2 on the season. Caldwell made four stops in the losing effort.
Both teams will be participating in the NEWMAC quarterfinals on Wednesday, Nov. 1. No. 7 seed MIT will travel to No. 2 seed Babson, while No. 4 seed WPI hosts No. 5 seed Coast Guard. Kickoff times will be posted on the schedule when they become available.

This bore is a absolute addition to web analytic methods and techniques. Assuming no above-mentioned knowledge, the bore will explain agency to acquisition what you are "actually" analytic for instead of lots of added absorbing links. Analytic is easy; award what you're analytic for can sometimes be difficult. Hopefully the admonition beneath will accomplish your next Web Seek effective. While three abode of the Web users of the apple adduce award advice as their a lot of important use of the Internet, that aforementioned allotment aswell adduce their disability to acquisition the advice they wish as their bigger frustration. The purpose of this bore is to advice you end that frustration. Staff at ICIMOD aswell indicated, during training needs assessment, Internet Analytic be taken up as a antecedence topic.

Part A
1. Overview of Apple Wide Web
The Internet isn't just about data; it is an all-embracing association of humans who allotment information, interact, and communicate. From the point of appearance of its users, the Internet is a all-inclusive accumulating of resources–people, information, and multimedia.
The Internet is an inter-connected arrangement of networks, the Apple Wide Web is the "virtual" web bond these networks. Anniversary apparatus (or accumulation of machines – archetype ICIMOD computers affiliated to the net via V-SAT) on a arrangement has a altered "address" from which it can appeal and accept information. A Web "browser" is a applicant affairs that requests advice from added computers which briefly action as "servers" sending the advice aloft request. The Web has existed for a continued time, but its exponential use and advance began in 1995 if graphical Web browsers (like Netscape, Internet Explorer) became added popular. At ICIMOD, Internet Explorer is the broadly acclimated web browser. With these graphical web browsers, the Internet mainly web became "user friendly", and humans began to advance and broadcast web sites and web pages. Hyperlink is the advantage of the web pages. Hyperlink is the aspect in a webpage that links to addition page/place in the aforementioned website or to an absolutely altered website. Typically, you bang on the hyperlink to chase the link.
There are billions of web sites on the net. With billions of web pages online, you could absorb a lifetime surfing the Web, afterward links from one page to another. Amusing perhaps, but not actual able if you are afterwards some specific information. One of the bigger problems we acquaintance is the adversity of award targeted/specific information. Breadth do you alpha from? Searching
Searching the Internet requires skill, luck and a little bit of art.
2. Before Starting the Search
The easiest way to acquisition advice is if you apperceive a web page Internet abode or URL (Uniform Resource Locator) such as ICIMOD home website. You can acquisition these addresses on business cards, email signatures, or newspapers. Artlessly blazon the URL in the browser's abode box and hit the key. If you do not apperceive the URL, you'll accept to acquisition it by analytic the Internet. In abounding cases, a simple seek on the name of an alignment aural a lot of seek engines will acknowledgment a absolute hit on their web site.
3. Accoutrement for Searching
There are abounding seek accoutrement available:
· Web Directories / Basal Library / Library Gateways
· Seek Engines / Meta-search engines
· Abysmal web databases
'Web Directories' (subject directory) are the repositories of advantageous web sites abiding into a hierarchical, subject-based structure. They crave humans to appearance the alone Web website and actuate its adjustment into a accountable allocation arrangement or taxonomy. Already done, assertive keywords associated with those sites can be acclimated for analytic the directory's abstracts banks to acquisition Web sites of interest.
For searches that are calmly classified, such as vendors of sunglasses, the seek directories tend to accommodate the a lot of constant and well-clustered results. This advantage is about bound alone to those allocation areas already acclimated in the anatomy by that service. Yahoo, for example, has about 2,000 classifications (excluding what it calls 'Regional' ones, which are a duplication of the above allocation areas by geographic region) in its accepted taxonomy. The Accessible Agenda Project has about 590,000 categories and 5,142,051 sites. Some broadly acclimated web directories are:
Google™ Directory
Open Agenda Project (ODP) – the bigger web directory
Virtual library is a web agenda that includes awful authentic links, alleged mostly by librarians. Use library gateways if you are analytic for top superior advice sites on the Web. You can be adequately assertive that these sites accept been advised and evaluated by accountable specialists for their accurateness and content. Accepted basal libraries include:
Librarians' Basis to the Internet
Internet Public Library
The WWW Basal Library
Funded by Danida and Sida and hosted by the Institute of Development Studies, Sussex, Eldis offers a ample accumulating of assets for 40 development-related sectors
SD Gateway contains over 1200 abstracts apropos to acceptable development, NGOs
Mountain Forum's Online Library, for online writing and publications on all-around abundance issues
Search engines basis anniversary plan aural all or allotment of documents. If you affectation a concern to a seek engine, it matches your concern works adjoin the annal it has in its databases to present a advertisement of accessible abstracts affair your request. Seek engines are best for searches in added difficult affair areas or those which abatement into the gray areas amid the accountable classifications acclimated by directories. But, seek engines are stupid, and can alone accord you what you ask for. You can sometimes get bags of abstracts analogous a query. Also, at best, even the bigger seek engines alone basis a baby atom of the Internet's documents.
It is important to bethink that if you are application a seek engine, you are NOT analytic the absolute web as it exists at this moment. You are in actuality analytic a allocation of the web, captured in a anchored basis created at an beforehand date.
Popular seek engines currently are:
Meta-search engines do not clamber the web accumulation their own searchable databases. Instead, they seek the databases of assorted sets of alone seek engines simultaneously, from a individual website and application the aforementioned interface. Meta-searchers accommodate a quick way of award out which engines are retrieving the best after-effects for you in your search
Deep web (or airy web or hidden web databases) is the name accustomed to pages on the Apple Wide Web that are not indexed by accepted seek engines. It consists of pages which are not affiliated to by added pages, such as Dynamic Web pages. Dynamic Web pages are basically searchable databases that bear Web pages generated just in acknowledgment to a query.
4. Which Accoutrement You Should Use
If you're analytic for specific information, use seek engines (e.g. cardboard presented on biodiversity in 2005 ABCD conference. You would aswell use a keyword seek for abstruse subjects, cross-category searches (e.g. abundance and GIS, ambiance and soil)
If you're analytic for accepted advice on accepted topics, use accountable (web) directories. You could aswell use in cases, breadth you do not apperceive any keywords accompanying to a subject
Use basal library/Library gateways if you are analytic for top superior advice sites on the Web. You can be adequately assertive that these sites accept been advised and evaluated by accountable specialists for their accurateness and content.
If you're analytic for a altered or abstruse seek appellation or if you wish to accomplish an all-embracing assay of what's out there in the Web on a specific subject, again use metasearch engines.
If you're analytic for real-time advice or for dynamically alteration agreeable such as the latest news, buzz book listings, accessible airline flights, etc., again use abysmal databases (invisible or abysmal web.)
5. Building Your Seek Strategy
Your adeptness to acquisition the advice you seek on the Internet is a action of how absolute your queries are and how finer you use seek services. Poor queries acknowledgment poor results; acceptable queries acknowledgment abundant results. Seek after-effects are alone as acceptable as the concern you affectation and how you search. There is no argent bullet.
The advice professionals at the University of California at Berkeley acclaim a accelerating access to Web searching. Actuality is their stepwise arrangement of accomplish to follow, which we about endorse for alpha searchers:
1. ANALYZE your affair to adjudge breadth to begin
2. Pick the appropriate starting place
3. Learn as you go & VARY your access with what you learn
4. Don't bog down in any action that doesn't work
5. Acknowledgment to antecedent strategies bigger informed.
As you accretion experience, you can activate acid out the average steps. By the time you're accomplishing absolute abundant appropriation with your queries, you absolutely alone charge absorb some time aboriginal accepting your concern appropriate and again acid to the basal band with a abounding Boolean seek application phrases and three or so concepts affiliated through the AND abettor and assorted seek engines.
Following these guidelines, actuality are recommended accomplish to abutting the Internet seek challenge:
· Absorb time BEFORE your seek to assay what it is you're analytic for
· Use nouns in your queries – the who/what, when, where, how and why; abstain conjunctions, verbs, adverbs and adjectives
· Use keywords at the appropriate "level" of specificity: precise, but not ever restrictive
· Use phrases breadth natural; they are your a lot of able weapon
· Use structured ("Boolean") syntax, abnormally the 'AND' operator
· Constrain your seek by application two or three related, but narrowing, concepts in your query
· BUT, generally, accumulate all-embracing concern breadth bound to six to eight keywords maximum
· Use avant-garde seek options and specialty appearance if appropriate
· For difficult searches, use alone seek engines that abutment Boolean syntax, or accoutrement or metasearchers that do
· For specific affair searches, accede seek engines tailored to those topics
6. Keywords Searching
Despite all the gobbledygook about things like 'Boolean' and adumbrated operators, the a lot of difficult – and axiological – aspect of a seek are the keywords acclimated in your query. Arrive the concepts abaft a seek is not as complicated as may assume at first. The aboriginal few searches are conceivably difficult, but, already done, the nuggets abaft your advice appeal alpha acceptable clear. Like benumbed a bike for the aboriginal time, it does yield some practice.
Before accounting the keywords, yield your time and begin accordant words. Create a account of seek terms. Write them down. A few abnormal of brainstorming could save you account or hours of retrieving extraneous results.
What are the characteristics to attending for while purchasing a diamond? You could accentuate the capital concepts, appropriately – What are the characteristics to attending for while purchasing a diamond. Select synonyms and alternative words, if required- (quality, features) (buying, procuring).
Formulate a concern with simple concept/words first, e.g. Seek words – "diamond affairs guide" is acceptable enough.
7. Byword Searching
A actual able way to access the appliance or attention of "hits" is to seek as a phrase. In a lot of cases artlessly agency putting citation marks about the seek terms. "internet searching" is a altered seek than internet analytic in a lot of seek engines. What you are in actuality accomplishing by analytic as a byword is application the abstraction of adjacency which apropos the terms' concrete accurateness to one addition (that is, their proximity). A certificate with internet analytic occurring abutting or next to anniversary added are added acceptable to be on ambition than a certificate with internet in the appellation and analytic active in the text.
Find the amount of advertisement decreased from 30,100,000 to 977,000 if application the byword for analytic internet searching.
8. Boolean search
Boolean analytic is an accomplishing of Boolean argumentation and set theory. Boolean operators, such as AND, OR and NOT are acclimated to amalgamate seek sets in a array of agency and arise aural Internet seek engines in a ambit of disguises. A actual abrupt overview:
Search phrase: bodies AND dogs or bodies dogs
means acquisition web pages in which both agreement occur
Search phrase: bodies OR dogs
means acquisition web pages in which either appellation occurs
Search phrase: bodies NOT dogs (use bodies -dogs in Google as NOT is not supported)
means acquisition web pages in which the appellation dogs appears but not cats
Most web seek engines accept the adequacy to apparatus these basal Boolean operators but may present them in a altered way. You will about consistently charge to go to an "Advanced" seek action to use authentic Boolean operators; however, you may be able to seek application adumbrated Boolean application the symbols + (must include) or – (exclude) from the "Basic" seek interface.
Note: these Boolean operators are generally presented as options like "include all the words," (AND operator) "include any of the words," (OR operator) and "exclude" (NOT operator).
While you ability apprehend that seek engines absence to an adumbrated AND (which agency if you access 2 seek agreement it allotment abstracts in which they BOTH occur) in actuality this is not consistently the case — some seek engines absence to the initially annoying OR (it allotment abstracts in which EITHER occur)
Use an *, accepted as a wildcard, to bout any word(s) in a byword (enclosed in quotes) abnormally with Google.
Search phrase: "Mountain * poverty"
means acquisition web pages absolute a byword that starts with "mountain" followed by a word(s), followed by "poverty"
Phrases that fit include: "mountain abating poverty", "mountain areas poverty", "mountain areas remained in poverty"
9. Avant-garde Seek / Acreage searching
Remember that a web seek engine is alone as acceptable as its database and indexes. Databases are collections of annal organized in a agnate manner; artlessly put, this agency they are disconnected into fields that accommodate the aforementioned advice in anniversary record. If abstracts is entered into a abstracted acreage you can retrieve it application its acreage label. This agency that if you wish to seek by title, the seek engine looks in a appropriate appellation basis (or searches notations that announce that the appellation occurs in the appellation field) breadth it has calm abstracts from the acreage with the characterization title. Abounding keyword seek engine aswell accept an "advanced search" option, aswell alleged acreage searching. This will accredit you to specify breadth keywords should appear, acceptance greater ascendancy over the results.
Field analytic is so admirable because you can specify breadth to attending in the web document; for example, in the appellation only, or the URL fields. Acreage analytic allows you to be actual specific about breadth you wish you agreement to action and appropriately is a actual able tool.
Field Analytic is aswell the abode acclimated in analytic databases. Particularly, sites administration databases accommodate this as a seek apparatus central a website. For instance, to seek ICIMOD's Library database or Mailing Account Database or even FAO's publications database, acreage analytic is provided.
Nesting is application brackets with Boolean operators, to accomplish your seek concern syntax added allusive and precise. For example, pan pizza and either coke or ice-cream, and cheese
Simple just blazon in "pan pizza" AND coke OR ice-cream AND cheese. But, this syntax will be ambagious to seek engines as it can be interpreted with abounding meanings – it may beggarly pan pizza and coke, or coke and cheese, so we use brackets to abstracted the blocks – "pan pizza" AND (coke OR ice-cream) AND cheese. Just bethink your top academy arithmetic.
10. Blockage the Results
Now you accept a boxy job. Afterwards a search, you accept to adjudge which of the seek after-effects will yield you to the a lot of advisory site. Your best bet is to yield a attending at the appellation and description of the page. Are they accordant to your search? If yes, accessible the page. If not, analysis the next result, by scrolling down on the appropriate ancillary of the browser.
To appearance a page you accept two options
1. Bang on the appellation of the page – even if says "No title" or "?????". Abode the cursor on the page appellation and the cursor will change to the account of a hand. Usually the links are in dejected and underlined, but generally they are not.
2. The added adjustment is to accessible the page in a new browser window. Right-click over the appellation of the result. This produces a pop-up menu. Select "open (link) in new window." Afterwards blockage the result, abutting the new browser window. You will still accept the aboriginal window browser with your search.
If you use the aboriginal adjustment a lot of acceptable you will not use the aback button to go aback to the after-effects page, but instead you will artlessly abutting the window, accident the seek page altogether.
What to do if you get TOO MANY results
It's accepted to accept millions of results, generally different to the search. To accept added accordant after-effects you'll accept to clarify or even amend the search. Actuality are some account to advice you clarify your search:
Add one or added anecdotic words to your query.
Use phrases. Enclose two or added words that can arise in exact adjustment aural bifold citation marks.
Use Boolean Abettor as you wish to be specific or Exclude words with NOT or adumbrated Boolean.
Use the seek tool's "advanced search" functions. Limit your seek by language, date or by acreage searching: title, URL, hotlink etc.
What to do if you get TOO FEW results
Sometimes you will get letters like "Your seek did not bout any documents" or "No pages were begin absolute your query" or "No results." Added times you may get few or extraneous results. What should do you do:
· Analysis the spelling of the query. Some seek engines automatically ascertain misspelled words and will appearance the actual spelling. Just bang on the appropriate chat or words.
· Delete the atomic important chat from the query.
· If you acclimated a seek phrases try eliminating the bifold quotes.
· Use added accepted terms, alternating spellings, plural forms or synonyms. "Google™ has afresh alien a new avant-garde seek affection that allows you to not alone seek for a authentic keyword but aswell for its synonyms. Just abode the "~" (tilde) mark anon in foreground of the keyword in your seek query. For example, "UN ~vacancies" not alone searches for "UN vacancies", but aswell for "UN job opportunities", "UN application opportunities" and "UN Jobs"
Evaluating the Results
First of all, don't accept aggregate you apprehend on the Internet. Be authentic what you believe. Governmental agencies, educational institutions, libraries and celebrated publications are the a lot of reliable sources of information. Be attentive with advice begin on claimed sites stored in chargeless hosts.
Tips on evaluating a website resource
1. Is the web website appear by an authentic source?
2. Is the columnist a accustomed able in the acreage or accountable area?
3. Is the advice relevant, aboveboard and accurate? It doesn't aching to cantankerous analysis two to three additional, reliable sources.
4. Is the website accepted and afresh updated?
5. Does the website accept a able "look and feel": structure, layout, colour scheme, aeronautics menu(s), etc.? Are there spelling, grammar or punctuation errors?
6. Does the website accept acquaintance advice such as a postal address, buzz or email?
Rest assured that award advice on the Web is never a catechism of luck. Instead it is the aftereffect of a absolute compassionate of how seek accoutrement work, accumulated with arrive the art of creating a targeted seek query. Analytic the Web is not difficult. Like any task, you artlessly accept to columnist the appropriate buttons.

Dear Xueliang Zhang,
I was intrigued by the interchange between you, Yoshitaka Nakajima, and Al Bregman, and did some listening, diotically through headphones, to stimuli consisting of the first 10 harmonics of 100 Hz alternating with the 5 even harmonics of that stimulus (all harmonics were presented at the same level). With on/off times for each complex matched at either 0.5 sec or 1.0 sec (10 ms rise/fall), I hear a fully continous 200-Hz tone that matches the intensity and timbre of the isolated even-harmonic complex. More interesting, however, is that the 10-component "all-harmonic" stimulus, which is heard intermittently, has not only the 100-Hz pitch of that complex but also retains the loudness and timbre of the all-harmonic stimulus as heard when it is presented in isolation. Were the even harmonics of the all-harmonic complex exclusively allocated to support perception of the continuous 200-Hz complex tone -- leaving only the odd-harmonics to support perception of the 100 Hz tone -- we would expect both a reduction in loudness and a clear shift in timbre to the "hollow" quality characteristic of odd-harmonic signals. This suggests that the "priming" or "capture" effect observed with complex tones provides an example of duplex perception that requires neither a verbal stimulus nor dichotic presentation. As I recall, Al Bregman has previously suggested that such an effect might occur when nonverbal stimulus input is strongly ambiguous.
This use of the even-harmonic components to support two simultaneous percepts (that of both the intermittent "all-harmonic" tone and the continuous even-harmonic tone) contrasts sharply with the processing underlying the general phenomenon of illusory continuity that is observed when one sound alternates with a higher-intensity, potential masking sound. The latter effect, which has been called auditory induction (Warren, 1972), occurs with a wide variety of signals, such as tones alternating with other tones, noise alternating with higher intensity noise, or speech interrupted by noise (phonemic restoration). This type of continuity, in which there are no exactly matching components to be found between the alternating signals, does appear to involve subtractive or exclusive allocation. For interrupted tones, noise, or speech, continuity is obtained at the expense of the interrupting signal, which is reduced in loudness by an amount proportional to the extent the illusion (Warren et al., 1994).

No Evidence of Premature Aging Effect in HIV-Positive Patients
May/June 2013
Similar to some other conditions including diabetes, hyperlipidaemia and rheumatoid arthritis, HIV-positive people are at higher risk of developing serious age-related co-morbidities including myocardial infarction and kidney and liver disease. It is still unclear whether HIV-positive patients experience these conditions at similar or younger ages compared to HIV-negative individuals and this is often discussed under the contentious concept of accelerated and premature aging.
Keri Althoff and colleagues from the Veterans Aging Cohort Study (VACS) compared mean age at diagnosis for myocardial infarction (MI), end stage renal disease (ESRD) and non AIDS defining cancers, and also compared their incidence by HIV status.1
Premature aging was defined as differences in mean age at MI, ESRD and cancer diagnosis. All analysis were adjusted for race, sex and body mass index (BMI), alcohol use, cigarette smoking, hepatitis C infection, anaemia and diabetes. Myocardial infarction and end stage renal disease analysis only were adjusted for hyperlipidaemia, lipid lowering medication, hypertension, anti hypertensive medications and statin use.
The analysis was based on data collected from 2003 to 2008 on >100,000 patients with HIV-positive cases matched by age, race and ethnicity 1:2 to HIV-negative controls from the same cohort. HCV was more common in HIV-positive people (35% vs 15%) but diabetes (17% vs 25%), hypertension (25% vs 38%) and dyslipidaemia (36% vs 44%) was more common in HIV-negative people.
In the HIV-positive group, 19% had a CD4 count <200 cells/mm3, 61% had undetectable viral load (<500 copies/mL) and 25% had an AIDS diagnosis. PI-based and NNRTI-based were each used by about 45% of people on ART. Mean age was 55 (+/- 8) years.
Mean age for each of the primary endpoints are detailed in Table 1 and although incidence rates remained higher for HIV-positive vs. -negative people, there were no differences in the adjusted analyses for age at diagnoses for MI and ESRD with the marginally lower age for cancers (0.7 years) unlikely to have clinical significance.
In conclusion HIV-positive individuals had a greater rate of MI, ESRD and HIV associated cancers compared to HIV-negative individuals.
There was no difference in mean age or adjusted mean age at MI and ESRD by HIV status. There was a modest difference at the age of non AIDS defining cancers in HIV patients (about 6 months younger in HIV-positive groups). There was higher incidence of Hodgkin's disease but over all no difference in the incidences of other HIV associated or non-AIDS defining cancer rates in HIV patients.
An analysis by Kathy Petoumenos from DAD group also found limited evidence of accelerated risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in HIV-positive patients.2
The study hypothesised that accelerated aging in HIV-positive patients would mean an accelerating risk of CVD with older age, and that the increased risk per year older would be higher in D:A:D relative to the results from risk equations developed for the general population (Frammingham, CUORE, ASSIGN). The researchers included 24,323 men (man age 41 years) prospectively followed in the D:A:D study (approximately 139,000 patient years of follow up) who had data collected on conventional CVD risk factors but who had no prior CVD events.
Primary events included 474 MIs, 683 cases of coronary heart disease and 884 cases of cardiovascular disease events. Crude event rates for each of these endpoints was 2.29, 3.11 and 3.65 per 1000 PYFU at age 40-45 and 6.53, 11.91 and 15.89 at age 60-65 years. They showed that there was a slowly accelerating risk of cardiovascular disease for year older and which was somewhat raised compared to the general population based on the equations for cardiovascular disease. The relative risk with MI was not different between D:A:D and the general population. The researchers did not find evidence of accelerating risk of cardiovascular disease with age in their study population.
Adjustment for younger age of HIV cohorts compared to HIV-negative general population controls appears to explain much of the difference seen in studies that previously reported younger age at diagnosis of non-AIDS events in HIV-positive people.

David Sedaris returns with a new collection of essays, Let's Explore Diabetes with Owls. His topics, at this point, are familiar. There's his family; his eminently tolerant boyfriend, Hugh; scenes from his feckless youth; and so on. If you've read Sedaris's past books, you know what's coming.
Does that make it any less entertaining? Of course not. Sedaris remains as quick-witted as ever. Even in an essay in which he's going after the low-hanging fruit of a basic language seminar, he's still going to force you to interrupt whatever your friends and loved ones are doing to explain to them why you're sitting there giggling.
If there is an issue with the language seminar essay ("Easy Tiger"), it may be in the sense that Sedaris is losing touch with the common man. This is a man who used to live in France and has since moved to the English countryside. The reason he's taking the language seminars is that he's traveling all over the world.
In one essay, he complains about being stuck in England for the summer because of a visa issue and it's because he had his passport stolen in Hawaii. Neither of these things are going to inspire too much sympathy. He can still laugh at himself for having issues the rest of us should be so lucky to suffer through, but even so, he can occasionally seem a little out of touch.
The visa essay, "A Cold Case," is the worst offender, but other essays, such as the one about traveling around near his place in the UK picking up litter ("Rubbish"), air similarly upper-class woes. He and Hugh decide to move to England, but Sedaris is shocked to learn that the English apparently have a bit of a litter problem. So he walks around picking up trash and feeling self-righteous about it.
The concept of the world-famous author walking around with grimy fingernails and picking up empty McDonald's bags is comical on its own, but even within that context, it's still an essay about a wealthy man with the time to go hike around the countryside all day. Earlier, Sedaris's distaste for the hygienic practices of the Chinese in "#2 to Go" never rises above easy jokes about the low dining standards he finds there. It's funny, mostly, but did it need to be said? The notion that China is not as tidy as Western countries is not a new one. For one of the preeminent humorists of his day, it seems as if Sedaris could have – and should have – aimed a bit higher.
Other essays show a more reflective Sedaris. In "Standing Still," he's in his mid-20s, stuck in a dead-end job, in a cheap apartment, doing a lot of drugs, and not really attempting to aim for more in life. When his younger sister moves in to his apartment building, it briefly gives him a sense of purpose, because someone is looking up to him. When she's nearly assaulted on the way home one night, the subsequent efforts he and his father make to find the attacker throw into sharp relief his own lack of prospects.
Once his sister doesn't need him anymore, what does he have to offer? His inability to ask his father for help for himself is poignant and tragic, even though we know he did fine in the end.
Sedaris has also provided a series of comic monologues for use by students in forensics competitions. They're satiric and sharp, but one might wonder if they are really appropriate for use in a high school competition. It's some of the darkest material in the book, taking as topics the likely horrors of legalizing gay marriage and a teenage girl infatuated with British slang. Much of that slang is not exactly printable.
Still, even a slightly complacent Sedaris is worth reading. No matter how successful he is, he's always going to be a slightly weird guy, the sort of man who wants a realistic model of the human throat for Valentine's Day and in return hunts down a taxidermied owl for Hugh. Such adventures, rendered in Sedaris's characteristic matter-of-fact tone, will always be entertaining. His tendency to relate the strangest things he thinks as though they're perfectly normal remains a strength. While Sedaris might no longer be quite the same man we met through such classics as "Me Talk Pretty One Day" and "Naked," he's still great company.

Drug Use & Abuse
There are many drugs out there and, because many of these drugs are new, little research has been done about the effects of taking them.
It is known that many of the drugs are being manufactured in home labs with no quality control standards. This means at the very least, dose levels may vary from tablet to tablet, and additional harmful ingredients may be added.
Get the Facts First
Taking drugs can be dangerous – not only because of the physical impact they can have on your body, but they can also limit your ability to set limits, be aware of your environment, and realize when you are in danger.
The information below is provided to help you identify different types of drugs and their effects on one's body. Because there are many risks involved with using drugs, it's best to obtain the information now, and make an informed decision before you are placed in a situation where you will have to choose to take a drug or turn it down.
What Really Happens
Your brain produces chemicals that allow you to feel emotions: happiness, pain, anger, and depression. Some drugs input the chemical that causes a feeling of extreme euphoria. As you take more drugs, your brain receives so much of this "happy chemical" that it starts to create less of it.
Therefore, without drugs, you feel constantly unhappy; you need the drug to feel joy. You are compelled to take more to attain that feeling. After a while, low-scale drugs like marijuana will no longer provide you with the joy you need, and you will find yourself yearning for more joy and moving on to more dangerous drugs such as crystal meth and cocaine.
These are the makings of an addict. Why are drugs so detrimental? They result in a chemical process that you cannot control.
The Big Question
There is no way to predict how drugs will affect you. It depends on the chemistry of your body. According to the United States Drug Enforcement Administration, up to 75 percent of drug users become addicted. Is that a risk you are willing to take?

Some new shows are still waiting to hear their fates for the rest of Season 1, but NBC's thriller "Blindspot" is way ahead: On Monday, the show got a very early order for a second season.
"Blindspot" stars Jaimie Alexander as a mysterious woman who is found with her body covered in tattoos, each of which offers a clue to a crime. Sullivan Stapleton plays the FBI agent investigating the case.
Typically, networks hold their cards close to their vests about an upcoming season. But NBC executives have seen their own clues, leading them to believe that more "Blindspot" would be a safe bet.

Kelsey Grammer has yet to sign the final divorce papers to end his marriage to his ex-wife Camille, despite exchanging vows with his fourth wife Kayte Walsh last year.
Kelsey left Camille in 2010 after meeting and falling in love with Walsh, and the former "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" regular filed legal papers to end their 13-year union in July that year.
The marriage was officially declared over on February 10, 2011, allowing the TV star to wed his new partner days later, but Camille reveals the former couple has not finalized every aspect of its legal split.
During an appearance on "Anderson Live," which aired on Tuesday, she explained, "For the most part, I thought they (the divorce details) were done because we came to agreement basically on everything and then I kept getting emails every other week from his lawyers that he wanted to keep changing things…
"On my end, I said, 'OK, I agree to all of this,' but he keeps making changes. So I feel that, at this point, he is prolonging the process."
Camille insists she is desperate to move on from the court wrangle and is now pleading with Grammer: "Release me! Set me free! You're married; you have a child. We are going to meet before a judge again very soon, so hopefully this time it will be over."
The reality TV star also claims the actor has not handed over any spousal or child support and reveals Grammer, who welcomed a daughter with Walsh in July, has banned her name from his house and refuses to talk to her directly. As a result, the former couple is reduced to communicating through their legal representatives to discuss parenting issues with their two kids, spending a fortune in the process.
She said, "It's very difficult to co-parent with someone who won't speak to you, text you or email you. He doesn't speak to me at all. So it's very, very difficult because I've reached out to him. I think it's very important to be amicable to raise children and he refuses to. There's just so much I can do at this point."
However, Camille is hopeful their relationship will one day be an amicable one, adding: "I mean, we were best friends and I miss my best friend. It would be nice… just for us to get along, for the sake of our children."

Fans feast on top class action
Graham Jenkins in Johannesburg
June 28, 2009
Fans mix ahead of the Springboks' second Test clash with the Lions in Pretoria © Getty Images
South Africa is a nation obsessed by sport and as a result the fortunes of the country's national sides often dominate the front and back pages of newspapers and saturate the various radio, television and online media outlets.
This month has seen rugby and football battle it out for the headlines with the British & Irish Lions tour and the Fifa Confederations Cup vying for the attention of the sporting public. That head-to-head intensified this past week with two pulsating clashes that underlined sport's amazing ability to captivate the masses.
The Springboks edged out the Lions in the crucial second Test of their three-match series in Pretoria while their football counterparts, Bafana Bafana, went down bravely to Brazil in the Confederations Cup semi-finals. Both matches not only delivered in terms of drama, excitement and controversy but also offered a fascinating insight into the appeal of each sport.
Football, or soccer as it is more commonly known, is the country's most popular sport with a primarily black fan base and the majority of the 48,049 fans that packed into Ellis Park in Johannesburg on Thursday night reflected that fact. In almost complete contrast, rugby is the game of choice amongst whites, especially Afrikaners. As a result it was no surprise to see white faces dominate the 52,511 capacity crowd that was drawn to Loftus Versfeld in Pretoria for the Springboks' clash with the Lions. However, the Lions' incredible travelling support may have had something to do with that with estimates suggesting up to 25,000 were present to cheer on their team.
Both sports have tried to nurture a more representative audience but they are battling decades of tradition. The Springboks' 1995 and 2007 Rugby World Cup triumphs went some way to opening the door to entire population while the 2010 Fifa World Cup will no doubt prove a magnet to all.
For further evidence of each sport's social roots you need look no further than the pre-match build-up. The country's unique hybrid anthem, adopted in 1997, contains extracts of the traditional African hymn Nkosi Sikelel' iAfrika and the former anthem Die Stem van Suid-Afrika as well as original English lyrics. It also includes five different languages - Xhosa, Zulu, Sesotho, English and Afrikaan - representing the make-up of the country's population. While the anthem was sung loud and proud at Ellis Park it took on a new dimension at Loftus where the Afrikaner-dominated crowd lifted that particular stanza to a whole new level.
That is not to say that the Ellis Park crowd was left wanting in terms of enthusiasm - far from it. The carnival atmosphere generated by the Bafana Bafana faithful was a feast for the senses.
Love it or hate it, the vuvuzela is an integral part of the game in South Africa. The plastic horn, which emanates a sound like an elephant or perhaps a complete beginner on the trombone, is a mainstay amongst football fans and when multiplied by tens of thousands creates an atmosphere like no other in the sporting world.
The widespread use of the instrument has attracted criticism from some quarters with some even calling for it to be banned from next year's Fifa World Cup - such is the irritation caused. The vuvuzela's smaller, kazoo-like cousin sounds more like a baby wailing but adds yet another layer to the wall of sound that is an omnipresent element to match day.
The energy levels at Ellis Park were also impressive from start to finish. The Bafana Bafana players set the tone as they danced and sang their way into the stadium and the fans followed their lead, matching their heroes' stamina with a never-ending song and dance routine.
The country's football fans can also boast more colour than their rugby rivals. From the pimped-up hard hats (Makarapa) to the over-sized sun glasses, from the replica shirts (worn back-to-front) to the national flag that is either waved or worn. For those looking for that extra bit of Madiba magic there are also the Nelson Mandela face masks.
The Springboks' fans are not shy of dressing up either although the vuvuzela has yet to be adopted by the oval ball game. Green and gold are again the colours of choice with the blessing of the replica shirt manufacturers. But when it comes to dressing up for the occasion they were a clear second best to the Lions' fans. The outfit of choice appeared to be either the Zulu war uniform or the full on Lion costume while for both sets of supporters beer was the accessory of choice.
Banners have long been a staple prop for sports fans and the Bafana Bafana supporters were no different. 'Yes we can' claimed one; 'Brazil for supper' said another. The Lions' fans also showed a thirst for popular culture with one reading 'Paul O'Bama - Yes We Can'. The Mexican wave, another fan favourite, made an appearance after just 20 minutes at Ellis Park but so compelling was the action at Loftus that the fans felt no need to entertain themselves.
At both matches it was a delight to see fans from both sides mixing with each other both outside the stadiums and inside where many found themselves sitting alongside each other.

In the end Bafana Bafana could not conjure the victory their fans dearly wanted. Against the odds they dominated their illustrious rivals for much of the game but crucially failed to take their chances. As a result they were made to pay by an impressive late strike from Brazil's Daniel Alves. The home fans were quick to their feet to praise their team and not even a cruel defeat could silence the vuvuzelas that played long into the night as the supporters made their way home.
The Loftus clash was arguably more dramatic with South Africa's Morne Steyn sealing the win, and the series, with the very last kick of the game. Again the fans rose as one to hail their heroes after a brutally intense battle. As in Johannesburg the winners found the energy to celebrate their hard-earned victory while the losers fell to their knees having given all they could.
There may well be concerns about security, ticket prices and infrastructure ahead of next year's staging of the Fifa World Cup but the enthusiasm of the country's sports-mad population should ensure that the party goes with a bang.

The first car I owned was a 1969 Dodge Charger. I got it the summer before my senior year of high school and it meant that I no longer had to drive to school in my mother's green 1974 Gremlin.
Earlier that summer, a friend of my brother's mentioned that he knew someone selling a dependable but high mileage car at a decent price. It was a green 10-year-old 1969 Charger with a ton of Michigan rust. It showed 90,000 miles but it was all original. It was the Special Edition which meant that it had leather seats and power windows. It had a 2 barrel 383 and a Torqueflite auto. They wanted $300 for it.
My brother Dave had restored a few cars recently and had gotten quite good at it. He told me he'd redo the car for me if I paid for supplies. With that offer, I had to buy the car. I remember driving the Charger home the day I bought it and noticing how huge the car seemed compared to the Gremlin. It also had a little more pep. When I got home it went in the family garage where just a few years earlier another brother had rebuilt a Hemi .
Dave and I went to the paint supply store and bought materials. Bondo was high on the list since the bottoms of the rear quarters were long gone. And we weren't going to repaint it green. The car we had thought of when seeing it was the yellow Charger from Dirty Mary, Crazy Larry. If you have not seen the movie, I highly recommend it. It's not high art but it is one of the greatest car chase movies ever made. It's got some people in it who yammer on about stuff but you can turn the sound off when that happens.
I hung around the garage and watched Dave perform the body work. I can still imagine the smell of the Bondo and picture him walking in from the garage, covered in the dust which came off the car when he sanded it. Eventually he sprayed the yellow and then painted a stripe on the back. I remember Dave asking me if I had a picture he could use as a reference. I found a good picture of an R/T in a 1969 Dodge brochure. He eyeballed it, using the rear marker lens for scale. Purists might notice that the stripe is not identical to one from the factory but in the entire time I owned the car, no one ever mentioned it. They were too blown away by the fantastic paint job. People asked me for the name of the "shop" that painted it.
I worked at a gas station at the time and one weekend we slapped a 4-barrel on the 383. Why not? The way I drove the car the fuel economy was already shot. I also picked up a set of Mopar magnum wheels for it, to replace the hubcaps you see in these photos.
I got in some good driving before the summer ended. When I returned to school that fall, things felt different. Whether it had or not, I believed my social standing had been upgraded from when I had driven the Gremlin. I parked at the far edge of the parking lot to avoid door dings and savored my commutes to and from school. Anyone need a ride home? I looked for excuses to drive places.
The morning of the last day of school it rained. I had a last hour study hall so I could leave an hour before everyone else in the afternoon. I told a friend of mine he should watch me as I left that day. I got in the Charger and backed it up to one side of the parking lot where I had found a nice pool of standing rainwater. My friend was at the window of the chemistry room with a few of our classmates – he had told them they might want to see this – and I pulled the most massive burnout of my entire driving career. The car had posi but I rolled the rear tires back and forth a few times through the puddle to make sure they were good and wet before I stomped on the gas. I may have even applied a little brake before I launched but then again, this was a special occasion. The rear wheels smoked and steamed for a good 75 feet before gaining traction and rocketing me out of the parking lot for the last time.
I drove the car for a few years after high school and never had any major mechanical trouble with it. To this day, the word "Torqueflite" is almost a holy incantation for me. Especially when you consider all of the – how should we say this? – harsh accelerations I subjected this one to. I racked up quite a few miles on the Charger. I remember heading down Woodward Avenue the night the odometer approached 99,999 and watching the numbers roll over just as I crossed over the 8 Mile overpass. I hit a turnaround and headed north, watching as the odometer started all over again.
During most of the time I owned it, the car could usually be found somewhere on or near Woodward Avenue after dusk. I suspect people who had legitimate reasons to be out there were sick of seeing that bright yellow car just lurking along, or parked at the ice cream stand just north of 14 Mile Rd.
As we grow up, we learn the realities of life. Like, Bondo does not cure rust. After a few years, the remaining sheet metal began succumbing to the harsh Michigan winters. One December, I popped the trunk to look for something and found it filled with slush. The bottom of the trunk at one edge had rotted out and now you could see through to the ground. Paint was bubbling off in spots elsewhere on the car and this time it would take more than a few hundred dollars to fix.
I sold the car around 1983 for $300, the same price I had paid in 1979.The supplies Dave used to restore it cost less than $300. That means the car you see in these pics cost me less than $600. Granted, those are 1979 dollars but that's still not bad. I never saw it again after I sold it. I suspect that it finally succumbed to the Michigan environment. Or maybe Torqueflites don't last forever?
I counted the other day and I have owned ten cars after the Charger. They all cost more and one of them I drove a quarter of a million miles. Even so, none of them was as memorable as the Charger. It was the perfect first car for someone who would spend the rest of his life thinking about cars.

[Pictures were taken by me with a Kodak Pocket 20 and 110 film. I have no pics of me with the car or any before the paint job. Who'd have thought I might want those later?]
