Alumni from the classes of 1962, 1967, 1972, 1977, 1987, and the pre-1962 Golden classes enjoyed a day of visits to their former schools and departments, a reunion lunch, a University Question Time session chaired by the Vice-Chancellor, Professor David Eastwood, and other activities and entertainment throughout the day. Many of the alumni in attendance were returning to campus for the first time in decades, so they enjoyed the opportunity to see what has changed (and indeed what has stayed the same!) since they were students. The day began with alumni arriving at the Great Hall to hear welcome speeches before being led by current students and academics to their former schools and departments for guided tours and activities. Over lunch, the Class Ambassadors took the opportunity to thank their fellow classmates for the gifts they have given to the University in their anniversary year. A fantastic £69,985.02 has been raised so far by the six classes in support of dozens of worthwhile projects across the University. This is the largest amount ever received in class gifts - thank you for this generous support. The breakdown of class gifts by year is as follows: 1987 - £6,128.05 1977 - £2,932.50 1972 - £5,101.48 1966 - £7,703.13 1961 - £5,381.95 Golden - £42,737.91 If you graduated in one of the anniversary years and would like to make a gift to the University, please visit our Giving page: http://www.birmingham.ac.uk/alumni/giving After lunch, alumni were able to pose questions to our panel, which included Professor Donna Lee, Senior University Tutor, during a University Question Time session. Questions ranged from the current student experience to the changes to our beautiful campus. Alumni were then assembled in the Great Hall for class photos, before being given the opportunity to explore campus through a choice of activities including campus tours, and visits to the Barber Institute of Fine Arts, the Guild of Students, Muirhead Tower, Research and Cultural Collections, Special Collections and Winterbourne House and Gardens. Alumni were also given the opportunity to look at the University's Hydrogen cars, Health Research Bus and UB Racing car, all displayed in Chancellor's Court. In the evening, alumni were treated to a behind the scenes tour of the new Bramall Music Building, followed by a performance in the Elgar Concert Hall. The event culminated in a reunion dinner held for 150 former students in Staff House. The graduation years for the 2013 reunions are 1963, 1968, 1973, 1978, 1988 and the Golden classes (pre-1963).

It was surprising to first hear that the New York Jets -- especially owner Woody Johnson -- were interested in possibly dealing Darrelle Revis. Johnson didn't deny the reports when asked Thursday. Count Revis among those surprised.
I'm speechless by far but more importantly I feel more upset for the jet nation for having to go through this!!!â Darrelle Revis (@Revis24) January 24, 2013
I guess we'll see how this plays out.â Darrelle Revis (@Revis24) January 24, 2013
Revis' reaction is yet another sign the trade news did not come from his camp. It's pretty easy to connect the dots and see that Johnson told prospective general managers his thoughts regarding Revis. Those thoughts leaked out, considering the Jets interviewed half the league for their general manager vacancy.
NFL.com's Ian Rapoport reported Wednesday that Revis would like to finish his career as a Jet. (That's an easy thing to say, but Revis also surely wants to be among the highest-paid defensive players in football.) Rex Ryan also reportedly wants to keep Revis around.
This could wind up being a referendum on who is in charge in New York. If Revis is dealt, it will be clear that Johnson (and new GM John Idzik) are the ones really running the show, with Ryan now playing a supporting role.

Network Registration
What is Network Registration and Why is it Required?
All computers connecting to the K-State network within the residence halls and Jardine Apartments must complete network registration before getting full internet access. Registration is an important part of network security, and can additionally help you retrieve your computer if it is lost or stolen. In addition, you must have all current security patches and updates for your operating system, and use the free Trend Micro antivirus software provided by K-State. Registration of student computers requires acceptance of the User Agreement and Statement of Policies, and the K-State Technology Usage Policies. For more information about K-State network security, please see Security for Information, Computing and Network Resources.
How to Prepare Your Computer From Home
- Ensure your computer is running a valid, licensed operating system. K-State supports Windows Vista/7/8/10, Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) and newer, and Linux.
- Install the free K-State Trend Micro antivirus software. Completely uninstall any other antivirus software before attempting to install the K-State antivirus software. Multiple antivirus programs tend to interfere with one another, which can lead to performance degradation and system crashes. Some common examples of antivirus software that should be removed are: Norton/Symantec, McAfee, AVG and 360.
After Arriving on Campus
The following steps cannot be completed until you arrive on campus. After completing all the previous steps, registration will only take a few minutes after arriving on campus.
- Ensure that your computer is connected to the "KSU Housing" wireless network or the Ethernet connection in your room. Information on how to connect to the "KSU Housing" wireless network can be viewed on the How-Tos page.
- Bring up a browser, and then load any webpage. This will redirect you to the SafeConnect installation instructions.
- Follow the instructions provided on each page. Computers will be prompted to download and install SafeConnect to your computer.
- After successfully running SafeConnect, you will be fully registered. If an error occurs or if you are prompted to do the same step multiple times after completion, please contact the ResNet Help Desk.

I was tied up when the massive Atlanta School District cheating scandal broke last month, and so didn't get around to blogging it. [Recap: nearly 200 teachers and principals in half of the district's 100 schools were involved]. But, with other large-scale cheating investigations still on-going, U.S. Education Secretary Arne Duncan was asked about the problem yesterday during a video-taped "Twitter town hall" (minute 12:00). Specifically, he was asked if the high-stakes tests mandated by NCLB are to blame (minute 16:50). Though Duncan made an off-hand comment that high-stakes NCLB-required tests may have contributed to the pressure that lead to the cheating, he repeatedly blamed the cheating on a uniquely "morally bankrupt culture" in Atlanta's public schools. That didn't convince interviewer John Merrow, who cited several other cities where cheating investigations are underway—nor should it convince you.
The problem is not that Atlanta is the Sodom and Gomorrah of public schooling. The problem is that state schooling separates payment from consumption. The accountability mechanism of competitive markets—the only such mechanism that actually works—requires the payer to also be the consumer, because the central incentive for any service provider is to please the payer. So if the consumer isn't paying, he or she is rendered relatively unimportant in the eyes of the provider. Atlanta parents want their children to be well educated, but a lot of work is required to meet that goal. State and federal bureaucrats just want high scores on NCLB-mandated tests—that's much easier to achieve by cheating than by doing an excellent job teaching. So there is an incentive for school officials to cheat because they are paid by the bureaucrats, not by the parents. Not every teacher succumbs to this incentive, of course, but the incentive is very clearly putting pressure in the wrong direction.
Now consider the incentive structure of schools paid directly by parents in tuition. The incentive in that scenario is to give parents what they want, which is usually a high quality education for their children. Certainly schools could try to lie to parents about how well their children are doing, but this is much harder than lying to bureaucrats. A great many parents will notice a discrepancy if their illiterate children are awarded A's. And parents considering a school will notice a discrepancy if the "A"-graded graduates of that school somehow cannot gain admission to, or often drop out of, the next higher level of education. Word of mouth—and now word-of-social-networking-apps—is a powerful thing. So it's much harder for parent-funded schools to get away with cheating, even if they were predisposed to use that strategy.
This is why no system of education that relies exclusively on third-party payment will ever match the quality and progress that we have come to expect in every other field. Indeed, it argues for finding ways of ensuring universal access to education that rely, as much as possible, on direct payment of tuition by parents. Of all the currently viable education policies, the one that fits that description best is the education tax credit—particularly direct credits for families' own education expenses. And, among third-party payment methods, scholarship tax credits also have advantages over the alternatives.
This is a reality many folks will not want to hear or accept, but reality is not optional.

This year's Black Friday weekend broke records for the busiest ever, according to the National Retail Federation. A stunning 247 million people shopped online and in stores from Thursday through Saturday, the most ever, the NRF said in an emailed release today. That compares with 226 million last year.
The shoppers spent a total of $59.1 million in stores, or about $423 a person.
"There's no question that millions of people were drawn to retailers' aggressive online promotions this weekend, making sure to research and compare prices days in advance to ensure they were getting the best deal they could," said BIGinsight Consumer Director Pam Goodfellow told the NRF.
Black Friday foot traffic rose 3.5 per cent this year, research firm ShopperTrak said.
More stores opened on Thanksgiving this year to give shoppers a head-start.
Retail giant Walmart said it had its best Black Friday ever. The chain innovated its promotions strategy, releasing different items at different times to prevent overcrowding in stores.

Sporty engine sound – matching the sound to your drive mode.
The equipment for the sporty engine sound generates an excitingly sporty engine sound in the vehicle interior based on the selected drive mode and engine parameters, such as engine speed, load and road speed. As such, the driver can experience an authentic sports car sound via the sound system without causing unnecessarily loud exterior noises. Conversely, the engine noise remains subtly in the background when a comfortable mode (ECO, Comfort) is selected via DYNAMIC SELECT. The sporty engine sound can be switched off if desired.
The Light Show
Ambient lighting system featuring twelve colours conjures up a unique sense of wellbeing in the interior. Especially at night, it accentuates the contouring and high quality of the interior, imparts a feeling of comfort and security by conjuring up an impression of spaciousness and reduces dazzle from oncoming traffic.
Open-air festival.
With its large glazed area, the electric panoramic sliding sunroof ensures a particularly bright and welcoming ambience in the interior. An electric roller sunblind can shade the vehicle interior if the sunlight glare is too strong. The glass roof is lowered at high speeds, reducing the noise level and air circulation in the interior. Conversely, it raises itself again at low speeds.
Equipment Line
AMG Line
Real rock stars stopped wrecking hotel rooms long ago. On the contrary: they value perfectly styled furnishings. With the AMG Line the integral-look sports seats in the material combination ARTICO man-made leather/DINAMICA microfibre appear particularly sporty.
Exclusive package.
The stylishly coordinated combination of high-quality interior appointments meets the highest expectations with regard to comfort, quality and design. Highlights include heated sports seats with 4-way lumbar support, which are covered in leather to match the multifunction steering wheel and gearshift lever. The dashboard and the door centre panels are finished in matching ARTICO man-made leather. Contrasting topstitching and design features in aluminium and silver chrome also contribute to the exclusive ambience.

This article is from the archive of our partner .
A 10-ton meteor blazed through the sky and struck Central Russia this morning, leaving nearly 1,000 people injured along with a goosebump-inducing sonic boom that provided an amazing collection of videos from citizens who caught the whole thing on tape. The several hundred minor injuries from the explosion were mostly flying glass and other debris created by the shockwave, all on the same day a much larger asteroid happens to be passing through the Earth's orbit.
Have a look:
We're pretty sure this is what Michael Bay dreams of when he goes to sleep:
Obviously, the meteor was bigger than your average shooting star and going pretty fast. "The [Russian Academy of Sciences] said in a statement hours after the Friday morning fall that the meteor entered the Earth's atmosphere at a speed of at least 54,000 kph (33,000 mph) and shattered about 30-50 kilometers (18-32 miles) above ground," reports the AP. Just listen to the sonic boom this beast created:
And one more:
And this is how you say "Holy ____ (insert expletive) " in Russian:
That shockwave shattered glass in the town of Chelyabinsk and Central Russia, and creating most of the 500 reported (and mostly minor) injuries. "The fall caused explosions that broke glass over a wide area. The Emergency Ministry says more than 500 people sought treatment after the blasts and that 34 of them were hospitalized," reports the Associated Press. (The AFP later revised the number to around 950 suspected injuries.) There aren't any reported fatalities at the moment, and the AP adds that the Russian Academy of Sciences estimate the meteor clocked in at around 10 tons.
Thankfully, the Russian obsession with dashboard-mounted car cameras allowed us to have plenty of amazing shots of the streaking fireball.
Update, 8:40 a.m.: Here's a GIF of the meteor to show all of your friends...
...and you can check out still photos and more videos here and here.
Update, 10:58 a.m.: Here's the latest on the damage, the name, the videos, and everything else.
Update, 3:33 p.m.: Conspiracy theories!

What Is Myasthenia Gravis?
- What are the specific causes/links of Myasthenia Gravis?
- Is Myasthenia Gravis hereditary?
- Can Myasthenia Gravis be caused by trauma?
- Does Ocular Myasthenia Gravis progress to generalized Myasthenia Gravis?
- How does Myasthenia Gravis affect the signals between the brain and the muscles?
- How common is Myasthenia Gravis?
- What are the types of Myasthenia Gravis?
- What should I know about doctor selection and appointments with Myasthenia Gravis?
What are the specific causes/links of Myasthenia Gravis?
Myasthenia Gravis is an autoimmune disease. For reasons that are not understood, the body's immune system, which normally fights infections or cancers, attacks the nerve-muscle communication point. In about one in ten Myasthenia Gravis patients, the disease is caused by a tumor called a thymoma that stimulates the immune system to attack the nerve-muscle junction. It is thought that what causes the disease in other patients is a combination of genetic factors and one or more environmental problems. The best guesses of environmental causes are viruses or bacteria (germs) that stimulate the immune system at the "wrong" time in a patient with genetic background that puts them at risk for this autoimmune disease. An example might be that some types of thyroid disease are caused by problems with the immune system and a similar autoimmune condition can cause MG.
Myasthenia Gravis is NOT caused by:
- A transmissible disease (can not be gotten through sex, blood, or saliva)
- Trauma
- A Penicillum mold
- A heart pacemaker
- Drug addiction (it however will make a person feel weaker)
Is Myasthenia Gravis hereditary?
In general, Myasthenia Gravis is not an inherited disease. It is not normally passed down from parent to child. If a patient who does not have a strong family history of MG has the disease, it is very unlikely they will pass the disease on. There are some families that appear to have a genetic predisposition (they possess a gene that increases the risk of developing MG), but it does not necessarily mean that everyone in the family will get the disease. There is no scientific proof to determine what genes could place a person at risk for MG and there are no tests for genetic screening.
Infants of mothers with Myasthenia Gravis may be born with neonatal Myasthenia Gravis. The child is weak at birth, but within a few weeks attains normal strength. This is NOT a permanent condition. The antibodies causing the disease in the mother are transferred to the child and then are eventually cleared for from the baby's body. The child does not have Myasthenia Gravis. It is very rare for children of myasthenics to develop Myasthenia Gravis.
Can Myasthenia Gravis be caused by trauma?
There is no reason to believe that trauma, such as an automobile accident, a fall, or a gunshot wound, can cause Myasthenia Gravis. There is also no proof that the stress of these events can cause or "set off" the disease.
Does Ocular Myasthenia Gravis progress to generalized Myasthenia Gravis?
About eight out of ten patients with Ocular Myasthenia Gravis proceed to develop generalized MG. The longer a patient remains with only ocular symptoms, the more likely it is that it will not become will not generalized. Unfortunately, there is no clear answer on how to prevent general disease. Some neurologists believe that using prednisone to treat ocular symptoms may decrease the chance of generalization, but this has not been established with any certainty.
How does Myasthenia Gravis affect the signals between the brain and the muscles?
Antibodies (proteins of the immune system) attack acetylcholine receptors on the surface of the muscle. This impairs the ability of the nerve to communicate with the muscle and causes it to contract.
How common is Myasthenia Gravis?
The overall prevalence (all cases of disease at one time) of MG varies. In adults, estimates vary from 50-200 patients with the disease per million people. For children, an estimate would be 20-50 children with the disease per million children. Another way of measuring Myasthenia Gravis in children is to say a children's hospital may see one child every one or two years with the disease. MG is more prevalent in women than in men. It is not absolutely understood why this is the case. It is likely the differences in levels of sex hormones contribute to this difference.
The best review regarding the epidemiology of myasthenia appeared in the journal, Neurology, November, 1996, volume 47, pages 1233-1238, by Phillips and Torner entitled "Epidemiologic Evidence for Changing Natural History for Myasthenia Gravis".
What are the types of Myasthenia Gravis?
Sero-negative: Patients without antibodies against the acetylcholine receptors detected by the standard blood tests are described as having "seronegative" myasthenia. Some of these patients have been found to have antibodies against a protein called, MuSK. Tests for antibodies against MuSK can be performed.
Bulbar Myasthenia Gravis includes a range of symptoms. This term refers to weakness of muscles supplied by an area of the brain called brain stem (or bulb). Some have only weakness of eye muscles (ocular myasthenia). Others have weakness only (or much more severely) of the bulbar muscles. These muscles are those of the throat and face. Patients have speaking and swallowing difficulties. At present, it is not known why some patients have particular involvement of these muscles.
Congenital Myasthenia Gravis is caused by genetic disorders of the nerve-muscle communication point. Usually patients are weak from birth. In some patients, weakness and fatigue become more evident with age. Congenital Myasthenia Gravis is not an autoimmune disease and therefore surgery and/or medications directed at the immune system do not help.
What should I know about doctor selection and appointments with Myasthenia Gravis?
Patients with Myasthenia Gravis should be treated by a neurologist (doctors who are experts in the area of the nervous system) who has some experience with the disease. If surgery to remove the thymus is recommended, the surgery is done by a chest surgeon. If the symptoms are limited to the eyes, ophthalmologists (eye doctors who have been to medical school) may be able to treat the disease. A neuro-ophthalmologist is also a specialist who can treat the ocular symptoms of Myasthenia Gravis.
The frequency of visits with the neurologist depends on the severity of the disease. A patient receiving immune suppression treatment needs frequent observation monitoring of laboratory tests.

Des Moines, Iowa - A few mistakes were too much for the Rockford IceHogs to overcome on Thursday night as they fell 5-2 to the Iowa Wild, their fourth straight loss after a five-game point streak.
The game was scoreless for nearly half the contest until Iowa broke through midway through the second period. Iowa center Eric Haula led a 2-on-0 breakaway and slipped his eighth goal of the season under Kent Simpson at 8:16.
Less than two minutes later, Tyler Graovac extended the lead to 2-0. Brett Bulmer picked up a loose puck in the IceHogs zone and fed Graovac backdoor for his fifth marker on the campaign at 10:06.
The Wild went on a 5-on-3 power play, but as Garret Ross' penalty expired for Rockford, the rookie winger picked up a loose puck in the neutral zone and beat John Curry on a short-handed breakaway at 12:29.
Still on the penalty kill, Rockford failed to clear its zone and Iowa capitalized a minute after Ross made it a one-goal game. Steven Kampfer fired his third goal of the season past Simpson after the IceHogs miscue at 13:29, making it 3-1.
After the IceHogs controlled the first half of the third period but failed to solve Curry, Iowa increased the lead to 4-1. While on a power play, Zack Phillips finished off a Haula feed in transition at 12:41 for his sixth tally of the season.
Brandon Mashinter notched his first goal with the IceHogs and second of the season at 17:10 to make it 4-2. With Simpson pulled, Jake Dowell buried an empty net goal to seal it for the Wild at 18:33.
The IceHogs return home Friday to play the Midwest Division-leading Grand Rapids Griffins. Puck drop is 7 p.m. For tickets, visit IceHogs.com, call 815-968-522 or in person at the BMO Harris Bank Center Box Office or any Ticketmaster location.

The best way to get over a heartbreaking loss? Prepare for a game against your biggest rival.
That scenario is the one the Utes find themselves in after Saturday's 51-48 loss to Oregon State in overtime.
The game didn't end until close to midnight, leaving the Utes emotionally and physically spent as one work week ended and another began.
BYU, on the other hand, got the weekend off to recover and prepare.
But there will be no "woe is me" attitude as the Utes get ready for Saturday's game in Provo, Utes coach Kyle Whittingham said.
"There are still nine games left, and it's still early in the season," Whittingham said. "My guess is this team is going to respond well."
The Utes showed in Saturday's defeat the kind of resilience that Whittingham wants in his team.
The Utes lost the Pac-12 opener for the third season in a row, couldn't stop Oregon State's passing attack and went 0-3 in the takeaway department, but there were plenty of encouraging signs in Saturday's game.
Utah quarterback Travis Wilson threw three interceptions, prompting him to take the blame for a game he was determined to win to honor his childhood friend Nick Pasquale, who was fatally struck by a car a week ago.
"I tried to make plays and make the game as close as I could, but fell short," he said.
Wilson finished the night 19 of 33 for 279 yards passing with two touchdowns and led the Utes in rushing with 13 carries for 142 yards and three touchdowns.
His numbers were overshadowed by the phenomenal performance of Oregon State quarterback Sean Mannion, who was 27 of 44 for 443 yards and five touchdowns, but Whittingham made it clear the loss wasn't on Wilson's shoulders. The coach instead put the blame on a lack of takeaways by the defense.
"It is a turnover drought for our defense," said Whittingham, whose team still is looking for its first interception. "We have to figure out a way to get interceptions or fumbles consistently."
Wilson made plenty of plays to keep the Utes in the game, like his 9-yard touchdown run that tied the game with 21 seconds remaining in regulation. The sophomore also showed the leadership the Utes need at quarterback by exhibiting more emotion and focus under fire than at any other time in his career.
When he crossed the goal line with 21 seconds to go to tie the game at 45-45 and fist-pumped to the sky, it seemed he and the Utes believed they'd prevail against the Beavers after trailing by 17 points.
Unfortunately the comeback fell short after Utah settled for a 41-yard field goal in overtime. The Utes then gave up a game-winning 6-yard touchdown pass from Mannion to Brandin Cooks.
"The best thing about this team going forward is the toughness and resilience to hang in there and keep fighting and believe in what they are doing," Whittingham said.
That belief seemed to stem from Wilson, who earned good marks from Whittingham even with the mistakes. Wilson might have gotten ripped by his coach after any other outing with three interceptions. Whittingham instead praised him.
"We knew there was going to be a learning curve to the season, but there is a lot less of a learning curve than we thought," Whittingham said. "He has been outstanding, and I think we have ourselves a quarterback, and we're excited about the future."
The immediate future is recovering from the emotional loss to get ready for the Cougars.
Saturday's game marks the final one between the teams until the 2017 season.
Utah has won the last three meetings, which includes one of the craziest endings the rivalry has seen.
Utah's fans rushed the field after a 51-yard field-goal attempt by BYU was blocked by Utah's Star Lotulelei with 1 second remaining.
Officials penalized the Utes 15 yards for the fans' celebration, saying the ball still was live. BYU's 36-yard field-goal attempt hit the upright and bounced away, which allowed the Utes to finally celebrate a 24-21 win.
Such unpredictable finishes are one of the elements that makes the rivalry what it is. But can the Utes recover in time from their emotional loss?
"You've got to do all you can to trick yourself into forgetting those losses," Utah tight end Jake Murphy said.
What the Utes won't forget is the way Wilson took charge Saturday. There was encouragement in Utah's growing leader even in defeat, even with the glaring mistakes.
"Travis was a difference-maker," Murphy said. "He single-handedly kept us in that game."

A growing trend in fashion is the plus sized wardrobe which has become a hit amongst women of all ages and size ranges. Most women are no longer in the size 2-10 range and are curvier and more buxom. For this reason, most stylists have a few words of advice when purchasing clothing in the plus sized range.
Keep the same rules in the plus range as you would in the smaller sizes. Choose classic pieces or suits which will always be in fashion no matter what the year or season. Purchase one pant or skirt suit in a plain color which fits you properly and serves you well for any important occasion.
Purchase a few blouses or shirts which will complement the suit and bring out the color of your eyes, hair and facial tones. These blouses can be worn with the suit, another pair of trousers or skirt. Try to buy fabrics which will wash and dry quickly for the next business meeting or party. Cotton, silk and linen make suitable tops material while wool is an excellent suit material.
Purchase clothing which fits you properly. There is nothing worse than gorgeous plus sized women wearing too tight shirts, pants or jeans. Buy a size larger and the clothes should be easy to do up and not make you look like a sausage in its casing. Wear good quality foundation garments to enhance your proportions. Bras should uplift your bosom and make a blouse look very good on you.
Avoid showing off too much skin as in halter tops or sleeveless tops. Leave something to the imagination and always dress as though you were going to meet someone special that day. Good fitting lounge clothes, bathing suits and tee shirts should enhance your body, not draw a critical eye.
Finally, complement your wardrobe with a hair style, classic make up and good fitting shoes. Accessories should be worn with to complement your face and eyes and not be overwhelming. Avoid too much jewellery or scarves, which take the focus from your beautiful face. Now you are ready to go forth and seize the world.
Choose shoes which are suitable for all day at work. Spiked heels are not required at work and should be saved for evening fare. If you want to dress up for evening then go for it but remember that it is your face and hair that everyone should be looking at, not your skimpy dress or top.

In good times or bad times, there are always people who fall short and need to borrow money. To some, the idea of trying to get a friendly loan from a friend or colleague may be too embarrassing, yet because these people may have a bad credit record, applying for a loan from the banks may not be feasible. So, where can you get a loan fast if you have bad credit? If I need to borrow 300 dollars now, who are the lenders who can give me a loan with no credit check? Well. there is hope and here is some information to help you with getting a personal loan under 1000 dollars easily.
If you only need 1000 dollars and below, a quick way to get cash is to go to a payday loan company. A payday loan is a short term cash advance that is secured by your future earnings. When you apply for an online payday loan for 300 dollars, you agree to pay back with your next salary, which the payment due date is set to coincide with the date you are going to get paid. Online payday loans are convenient, as they can be approved easily and they do not require a lot of documents to fax over. There are even some paperless payday loans available in certain states where you can apply for a loan online with no faxing done.
While a faxless payday loan can help to bridge the gap between paychecks, they may not be able satisfy your credit needs if you need to borrow 2000 dollars and more for at least a few months. Most payday loans are good for 1 month and while loan extensions can be granted, they will bring up the total cost of the loan considerably. To get a long term payday loan, what you can do is to look for short term installment loans that you can pay back in 90 days or more.
These monthly installment loans are available with a longer repayment term and the amount of money you can take out is also much higher than the average 500 dollar payday loan. Repayment is made on a monthly basis and you can get a 6 month installment loan of 5000 dollars with no collateral needed. However, these installment loan lenders are likely to run a credit check and so obviously, they are much more difficult to qualify as compared to payday cash advances.
When trying to get a 300 dollar personal loan from non-mainstream lenders, it makes sense to know what are the types of private loans available for people with bad credit and whether you are qualified to apply for these short term online loans. Many people think that they have bad credit when in reality, their credit score isn't as bad as what they thought. A good idea is to obtain your latest credit report and check through the accuracy of it. If your credit score isn't too low, you may be able to get your bank to approve you for a low interest personal loan instead of having to turn to online loan companies that give payday loans and whatnot.

The ultimate reality show has found a way to inject a little manufactured drama into a game that otherwise doesn't have much of it, artificial or otherwise.
According to Joseph Person of the Charlotte Observer, the team captained by Deion Sanders and coached by Chuck Pagano has opted to give Colts quarterback Andrew Luck the start on Sunday night in the Pro Bowl — even though Panthers quarterback Cam Newton had more combined votes from fans, players, and coaches.
In contrast, Panthers coach Ron Rivera has chosen to configure the depth chart for the team drafted by Jerry Rice based strictly on voting.
"We talked about it prior to this," Rivera said Saturday, via Person. "He asked and I asked and we both said, 'Hey, why don't we just start them according to votes so there's no hurt feelings?'"
Under the prior AFC-NFC format, starters and backups were determined by the voting results.
League officials had expected Newton to get the start. The "flip card" to be distributed in the press box shows Newton as the starter for Team Sanders.
Luck was the first quarterback taken by Sanders in Wednesday night's player draft, so it makes sense that Luck would get the start. Moreover, Luck plays for Pagano. It's hard not to wonder whether Newton's history in the Pro Bowl was a factor; in his only other appearance two years ago, he completed nine of 27 passes with three interceptions.
Then there's this recent assessment from former 49ers long snapper Brian Jennings regarding Newton's debut: "We have Drew Brees with his playbook all week, studying. . . . We have Cam Newton with his head phones on all week goofing off. . . . We go into the game, and this guy is chucking the ball all over the place, and everybody is looking around going, 'What's this guy doing? Are you kidding?' . . . He went in there and stank it up."
Newton now has a reason to prove Pagano wrong for picking Luck, similar to the way Newton proved people wrong all year long. And we all now have a reason to watch and see what Luck and Newton can do.

Aleph One, however, comes with the ability, using Lua, to trigger music to play based on certain conditions. There are several code options here:
- Code: Select all
clears the level playlist
fades out the currently playing track and clears the playlist
.play(track1 [, track2] [, ...])
appends all of the specified tracks to the end of the playlist
stops level music and clears the playlist
.valid(track1 [, track2] [, ...])
for every track passed, return true if it exists and is playable and false otherwise
I'm sad that these functions have not been taken advantage of in any Marathon scenarios, and I'm somewhat curious as to how they work. What exactly are their abilities and limitations?
For example, suppose I had a set-piece battle in my map. Suppose I then had a Lua trigger which checked to see whether the player has entered the room where that set-piece battle is supposed to take place - if that condition is met, the game will start playing music using the .play function given above. I assume I could then have another trigger which checks to see if all the enemies in that room are dead, and if they are, it uses the .fade function to stop the music I started when the player entered the room.
Would the music, once started, continually loop? Given that those triggers above mention 'playlists', I assume it's possible to trigger a whole string of songs in order?
Sorry to seem a bit ignorant - it's just that I'm not much of a coder, and I want to try and understand what exactly can be done with these options. Thanks in advance.

"I don't know what to tell you," Tinsley said. "It's a big, stinky green arm, man. Like the Jolly Green Giant's arm — you know, the guy on the bag of peas? It's awful. Many people were amazed by it. I just wanted to get to work."
The incident has inspired representatives from every community to give theories, the scientific and religious experts garnering the most support. Local shop owner Perry Hudkins was reportedly quick to inform a crowd that were two possibilities.
"According to my findings, this could indeed be the arm of an angel," Hudkins said. "And I believe it may be a lesson from above that we need to show more strength in our presence in the world. Or there's a giant green man who lives up in the sky who just lost a fight."
Outside of Rockford, the only proof of the monster is a photo taken and posted on the Rockford Police Department's Facebook page. Many experts outside of the area say they'll provide their theories once the limb has been publicly revealed at the press conference. This is not the first time giant limbs have been found in odd places around the world. In Idaho last year, a farmer supposedly found a 3-foot toe in the middle of a field. Since 1958, a small Taiwanese village has used a giant nose reportedly found in a ditch as an annual parade decoration.
Weekly World News will continue to follow this story as it progresses.

The council agreed the emergency project provides the city an opportunity to pursue additional improvements at the park, including the creation of an amenity that has been sorely lacking in the north part of the city: an exercise area for dogs. The city currently has three dog parks, in Greer, Hoover and Mitchell parks. Staff and council members have long acknowledged the dearth of open spaces for dogs and had agreed to keep that in mind any time the city improves its parks.
In this case, the dog area would be one of many added amenities. The project approved by the council also includes a turf field for soccer and lacrosse, a grass field for softball, pathways in the north and 26 new parking spaces (bringing total number to 68).
But it was the dog park that proved the most controversial proposal. The Parks and Recreation Commission had endorsed all the improvements except the one for dogs and the expanded parking lot, arguing that the city shouldn't spend nearly all the funds in its $2.8 million park-development-fees fund on one project.
Park development fees are collected from developers for the purpose of improving parks, as compensation for the increased demand for city facilities and services that new residential and commercial buildings bring.
The dog run, which would be the size of half a football field, would include a wood-chip base, benches, a water fountain for humans and a special spigot for dogs, according to Daren Anderson, the project manager.
Holman and Price both opposed the project, though for differing reasons. Holman argued that the dog run's proposed location on the north side near San Francisquito Creek would make it a difficult place for dog owners to reach.
"I wouldn't take my dog there because I think it's poor access for a dog park," Holman said.
For Price, money was the swaying factor. Given the city's limited resources, she said, the council should defer its discussion of a dog park "to a future time when we can complete environmental (analysis) and identify the appropriate funding."
But others argued the city shouldn't let the opportunity for a new dog park slip away. Councilman Larry Klein said the city is not a dog-friendly one, despite the huge number of dog owners. Deferring the project, Klein said, creates a likelihood that it would never happen.
"I think this is an exciting opportunity to get an excellent community asset completed," Klein said. "Yes, it's expensive, but we have an opportunity here that we don't have elsewhere, so we should spend the park-impact fees."
Klein's colleagues agreed, though with some reservations. The project is complicated by the anticipated relocation of MacArthur Park restaurant, which stands nearby at 27 University Ave. The city is working with philanthropist John Arrillaga on a proposal to build an office building and a theater at the restaurant's site, which would necessitate a relocation of the historic Julia Morgan-designed building that once served as a meeting point for families of World War I soldiers.
Greg Betts, Palo Alto's director of community services, said Monday the city is evaluating three new locations for the historic building: the former Camp Fremont on Willow Road in Menlo Park; the Palo Alto Municipal Golf Course, where it would replace the current clubhouse; and El Camino Park. Though the project is still in an early conceptual phase, several members said Monday they were hesitant to sign off on the proposed El Camino Park improvements while the fate of MacArthur Park remains up in the air.
"What's to say that a major building there wouldn't call for a major redesign of the park which wasn't on the table when we first started going with these plans," Councilman Sid Espinosa said. "I have difficulty reconciling these plans."
Ultimately, however, he sided with the council majority. He referred to the city's prior commitment to pursue spaces for dogs during park renovations.
"If we don't put it in now, we won't get it, so I think it's good to take that bold step and make that commitment," Espinosa said.

Cross posted in Orange and at the Stars Hollow Gazette
There seems to be a lot of celebrating without actually understanding much of what has happened as of late. One reason is that it looks like House Republicans will agree to raise the debt ceiling but only for 3 months until the budget gimmick of all Congressmen supposedly either passing a budget or denying their own pay as if that will ever happen. There will be infighting on whether there should be heavy or light deficit terrorism terrorizing the unemployed as usual, but now we can expect these dysfunctional austerity celebrating battles to go on and on. And as I pointed out when I predicted all of this 3 years ago, when this is the debate in Washington DC we have already lost.
We've Already Lost So Cancel Any Perceivable Celebration
This budget gimmick fight is already on top of what the last debt ceiling fight created with the negotiations coming up over the self induced sequester on the basis that 4 trillion bipartisan austerity is awesome. That is the problem for all debates and all fake "progressive" political rhetoric in DC we heard at the Inauguration even though it was a great speech.
The plans to kick this austerity shit can down the road continually every few months is not a victory; it's also not even a clean debt ceiling raise because it's not even going to be for a fiscal year. It also means the White House was really posturing as I said they were when they claimed they wouldn't negotiate on the debt ceiling; this shows that all this so called new-found post reelection "strength for progress" is a myth. That also means that all the hyp being bandied about, about the low-balled 60 billion to merely 9 billion Sandy relief bill passing weeks late and 51 billion dollars short breaking the Hastert rule did not have the significance of the spin behind it at all. It's simple: John Boehner was looking out for his own ass as speaker(shocking!). That's it.
The idiotic bipartisan sequester created by the last grand self induced standoff over the last debt ceiling fight will come to a head on March 1. I don't expect a lot of defense cuts despite the posturing and fully expect more cuts to SS and Medicare to be floated and bargained with within multiple negotiations that show nothing but contempt for the public. Yves Smith goes into the real reasons why a Republican grand standoff on the debt ceiling looks like it won't happen despite the coming miniature ones every few months that will happen where plenty of deal making and deficit terrorism will take place.
All Good Democrats Applaud Republicans Rearranging Battle Lines in Austerity Phony War
It's not quite that simple.
First, if you widen the frame, the budget jockeying is largely kabuki: which team is going to score more points that appeal (or more accurately, can hopefully be spun to appeal) to their base? The reality is that both parties are fully committed to imposing austerity. The only question is whether we get Dem Lite or Republican Hi Test. But rest assured, neither version will be good for ordinary Americans.
Second, the Republicans have not dropped the deficit ceiling cudgel, but they seem to recognize that it is a mutual assured destruction weapon, and therefore not as useful as they once thought. They seem to still be coming to grips with the negotiating implications. As the New York Times reports, the Republicans are willing to extend the deficit ceiling for three months, but that increase was conditioned on having the Democrats approve a budget (during the Obama administration, no budget has been approved; the government has carried on because Congress has passed spending resolutions). Notice that while Obama has said that he would not discuss deficit cuts under a debt ceiling sword of Damocles. But if he accepts this deal (which includes a gimmick, of having Congresscritters go unpaid if they can't agree on a budget on the normal timetable), he will still be doing that. So why is this a victory of sorts?
The more important part of the New York Times story on the Republican climbdown is that Dave Camp, the House Ways and Means Committee chairman, disabused his fellow party members of the idea that the government could limp through hitting the debt ceiling by using tax proceeds to pay only debt obligations, Social Security, the military, and other critical needs. So the Republicans can't refuse to raise the debt ceiling and not do serious damage, pronto. And everyone would blame them for their intransigence. So unless they want to play Major Kong, they will probably continue to play ball with the Democrats on debt ceiling increases while trying to save face about it.
These constant negotiations and backroom deals over what was once routine whether debt ceilings or budgets(with austerity on the side) show nothing but a broken government that cannot fiscally handle matters the way they are anymore. When political systems are broken it weakens our ability to function the way we actually can and do need to function to spread resources for the general welfare of the American people. As a sovereign currency we have many advantages but we cannot take advantage of them with a broken political system. This is why the whole game needs to change and why I supported the fully legal trillion dollar platinum coin only as a first step to 60 trillion High value Platinum Coin Seigniorage; that step being gainful attention in the media and a national conversation about our monetary system and what it can accomplish.
The inception of this idea came to being from lawyer/blogger beowulf, whom was not just trying to have an insightful wonky conversation on a blog. There was a reason he thought of this. Given our broken political system, it's not enough that the Federal Reserve as the Treasury's fiscal agent can mark up dollars on a computer and print them off. The Fed operates off of appropriations from Congress which in turn cannot function legally as they let the public debt be questioned which is a violation of the Constitution. Therefore only private banker debt and bailouts are something that won't be questioned thanks to the influence of every member of the Federal Reserve Board and even Jamie Dimon while CEO of JP Morgan sits on the board of the NY Fed the most important regulator that failed in 2008.
The fact that the public cannot have Democratic control of the money that is created to make debt payments and thus the operational ability to create debt free money instead of welfare for the FIRE sector. These bonds are welfare they don't need, and are a problem the framers of the Constitution envisioned. So it's pretty laughable after one looks into it that anyone denies this process is legal.
Author and attorney Ellen Brown was the one beowulf got the high value coinage idea from when he read her 2007 book: Web of Debt. As she points out, the Trillion Dollar Coin was only meant to be a jumping point to all of this since the mainstream media picked it up and stirred the conversation towards this process. It had nothing to do with the dumbass political jam this President and Congress caused; getting out of that was merely a way to get Congress out of the way of a system it is corrupting for good and for the greater good.
PCS was and is a way to defeat austerity policies for good and for more Democratic control of our modern money system which cannot afford to let politics ruin its prospects for those are our prospects. I highly recommend reading this piece by Ellen Brown.
The coin actually represents one of the most important principles of popular prosperity: the creation of money by sovereign governments, debt-free.
Most commentators have missed the real significance of the trillion dollar coin. It is not just about political gamesmanship. For centuries, a secret battle has raged over who should create the nation's money supply – governments or banks. Today, all that is left of the US Treasury's money-creating power is the ability to mint coins. If we the people want to reclaim that power so that we can pay our obligations when due, the Treasury will need to mint more than nickels and dimes. It will need to create some coins with very large numbers on them.
To bail out the banks, the Federal Reserve, as head of the private banking system, issued over $2 trillion as "quantitative easing," simply by creating the money on a computer screen. Congress, the White House, and the Treasury all rolled over and acquiesced. When it was proposed that the government bail itself out of its budget woes by minting a $1 trillion coin, the Federal Reserve said it would not accept the Treasury's legal tender. And the White House again acquiesced, evidently embarrassed to have entertained this "ludicrous" alternative.
Somehow we have come to accept that it is less silly for the central bank to create money out of thin air and lend it at near zero interest to private commercial banks, to be re-lent to the public and the government at market interest rates, than for the government to simply create the money itself, debt- and interest-free.
And somehow we have commentators across the blogoshpere proud of the fact they don't know this based on what they think they know; nothing. They're proud of the fact they don't understand inflation and scream hyperinflation no matter how many times you explain to them that any 60 trillion dollar coin will be locked up in the Treasury's General Account at the Fed and only released little by little with Congressional appropriations. Yes, these naysayers are apparently proud of the fact that they can't quite get that trillions in reserves at accounts at the Fed do not chase goods either so they do not understand demand pull inflation at all.
So in the process of taking the time to explain these concepts to people just to have them ignored or ridiculed one gets the feeling one is in an argument with the right about climate change or trickle down economics. The data is there and so are the facts but facts are now not only subjective to the right wing. Some people would just rather cheer the team then think critically about our problems. It's becoming more clear everyday that everything lots of people ridicule about the right can be found in the Democrats own back yard of support.
So now we know what to look for if we want this austerity game to change and little of it could be found in any of the lofty rhetoric at the Inauguration in a way that changes the game and is followed by action. Looking back perhaps people of the future will wonder why many people lived unhappily unable to fill their potential thanks to deficit lies and terror. They will wonder why their life spans continued to decline compared to the rest of the OECD countries or why we didn't act on climate change and instead approved the Keystone pipeline.
Will it be lack of vision? Absolutely not. It will be lack of political will. It will be a lack of character and a lack of principles that the real left had during the 30s that shaped the New Deal many still benefit from today. It will be a lack of standards in which we hold our elected leaders and a lofty sense of accomplishment through vicariously living through politicians without the physics of being part of that tiny club.
Looking back, it's only when the fragile illusions within the minds of the commoners are shattered that they realize there's no place for them despite the rhetoric echoing down from the ivory tower. It wasn't built for you, and there's only a seat if you demand the architecture include plans to accommodate everyone. After all, what people say to excuse this deadly omission when this is not even a subject of political debate is that it's "pragmatic."
However, this third way brand of "pragmatism" might as well be the name of the song Nero played while Rome burned. On war and drones "the end justifies the screams." On income inequality, "the end justifies the lack of means." On no accountability for Wall St crimes, "the end justifies letting government be owned and controlled by fiends."
I truly hope what I speak will not continue to be. But it's increasingly looking that way and we will have to wait and see.
Wake. Up.
Now playing:
Heh, indeed. It's all bad. They're all bad. We can count it up
Love that Yves Smith headline
All Good Democrats Applaud Republicans Rearranging Battle Lines in Austerity Phony War
I'll say again, these days the most amazing thing of all is their enthusiasm for the illusion. How do those actors do it night after night--you've gotta laugh during this scene, cry during this one, pretend to look concerned right here, then step over to this blocking and be angry. It looks exhausting. Does anyone ever want to throw their hands up and scream, "I'm living a lie!"
She has a way with words
That Ellen Brown bit opened my eyes
Thanks for posting that.
Somehow we have come to accept that it is less silly for the central bank to create money out of thin air and lend it at near zero interest to private commercial banks, to be re-lent to the public and the government at market interest rates, than for the government to simply create the money itself, debt- and interest-free.
Finally, I got it.
The resigned tone is depressing but, I think, realistic.
That piece was striking in many ways
Just waiting, waiting, waiting...
I know what you mean, Glinda
it's got to come crashing down
they have the guns, the judges, the lawmakers, they control the "news" and they're going to soon control the schools.
Our hope is that they overstep to the point where they get run out of town or (not my first choice) the country goes down in flames, either economically or because the rest of the world says "enough is enough", by intervention. I'm not counting on the world, though. Crooks abound.
The right actions have to commence
during the next crash. People must demand accountability and accept nohting less regardless of any charismatic Democrat putting them in a spell.
Time will tell. Thanks, Shahryar.

Cost Saving Lymphoma Protocol for Canines
Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
I'm a Veterinarian and professor of small internal medicine at the Universidade Estadual de Londrina, Paraná, Brazil. We work with dogs and cats that present with lymphoma. Sometime, owners don't have enough money to treat their animals with the protocol called COAP, so we suggest that the animal may be treated with prednisolone alone, and we know that this perhaps will give some quality for a brief time to the animal. So, I would like to know if this is a good option?
Lili Duda, VMD, Section Editor of the OncoLink Veterinary Oncology Menu, responds:
There are a variety of options to treat multicentric lymphoma in dogs, ranging from supportive and inexpensive to aggressive and costly both in terms of time and money. In general, the more intense the treatment, the longer the average remission duration, and the more costly in terms of side effects and money.
Prednisone alone (at 40 mg per meter squared daily) remains a very common supportive measure because it is cheap, relatively free of side effects (apart from increased drinking, urination, and appetite), and easy for the owner to administer at home. About half of dogs will have a good initial response that will last for two to three months on average.
Another possible option is an oral chemotherapy drug called lomustine, or CCNU. This drug is given at a starting dose of 70 mg/meter squared every three weeks. Like other chemotherapy drugs, the primary toxicity is bone marrow suppression, so CBCs should be evaluated at 1, 2, and 3 weeks to see where an individual animal has the lowest white blood cell counts.
CCNU can also be toxic to the liver, so baseline liver profile should be obtained prior to starting CCNU, before the 4th dose, and every other dose thereafter. CCNU should be discontinued if liver enzymes are more than three times the upper limits of normal values or if there is progression of the lymphoma.
A third single agent option is Adriamycin (doxorubin) alone, given every 3 weeks for 3 to 5 total doses. About three quarters of dogs will attain remission for an average of about 6 months.

To start with Slotomania can be obtained for free. Thus, you shouldn't get worried about any hidden charges. Different designs are out there for both Android and iPhone, thus this is another worry that you can put off your shoulders.
The following thing that would astonish you about Slotomania is that it is quite secure. There's no need to stress about your private information being stolen if this is the game that you choose.
Furthermore, it presents you a huge choice of Free Coins, and consequently you would be spoilt for choices. It is very unlikely that you won't be able to find something that would match your need as the choice of Free Coins is also available.
In case you do not like a concrete game, you have a chance to jump onto another one.
By the way, I strongly recommend checking our Facebook page.
