You Have Your Degree, Now What?There are many important stages in one's life, and one of them is finding your career path once you obtain your degree. As soon as you finish your college education, you might want to do one thing - make money. However, take some time off to reward yourself before starting a new part of your life. Be smart, if you get a great job offer right after graduation, take it, because years of learning are only useful if you have an opportunity to prove yourself. If you don't, all you will have to show for is a head full of concepts and a nice diploma. Now, you have to convince the real world that you are ready for it.
what to do nextYou now have your degree from a very respected college and you are ready to go out and earn big dollars. You quickly realize that unless you are well connected at a potential employer's company, firms are looking for experience to back up your education. Also, without education, employers expect to pay you a lower income than you actually deserve. At this point you come face to face with reality and a few basic options are available:
- You can continue studying and becoming more knowledgeable. All this means is that you are postponing the possibility of not having a job, especially in your field. On the other hand, obtaining an additional certificate, a Masters degree or a PhD can increase your starting salary. What this means is that employers expect you to be smarter than the average person because of the extra years spent educating yourself. Smarter employee = Bigger paycheck.
- Another option is to start working right away for a lower income on the basis that you will obtain on hand experience. This will allow you to climb the corporate ladder at a pre-determined rate through standardized promotions. This choice fits very well within the personality of many professionals who like to take things one at a time.
- A riskier way to undertake one's professional career is to start an entrepreneurial venture. This is the riskiest of them all, but also the most rewarding professionally and possibly financially. A lot of willpower and determination is needed to pursue this endeavor, and often times some financial funds might be needed to materialize your ideas. Prepare yourself to face many obstacles.
- The last & the least difficult option is to use your contacts within a corporation, which will ease your entrance into the work team. This might not be the most rewarding at the beginning, but consider that about 80% of jobs are obtained using one's contacts in his network. This does not mean that you are less qualified, it just means that you have to live up to your professional expectations.
planning your lifeA major decision like this one will affect the rest of your life and should not be taken lightly, which is why planning must be put into the equation. Everyone should write down all their various strong and weak points to determine the best suited position for them. This simple exercise will allow you to find out where you want to be in the future and how to get there efficiently.

Color in American Fine and Private Press Books, 1890-2015
This exhibition explores the establishment of a fine and private press movement in America, beginning at the end of the nineteenth century and continuing to the present day, through its various uses of color. Color was used not only to enhance the page visually, but also to convey important information. Techniques employed to impart color to the page varied, from hand-coloring printed outlines to colored woodcuts and engravings, from applying color through stencils (pochoir) to color lithography, from silkscreening to typographic color. The exhibition celebrates the recent acquisition by the Penn Libraries of The Jean-François Vilain and Roger S. Wieck Collection of Private Presses, Ephemera, & Related References.

I'm making a multi-threaded application using delegates to handle the processing of requests in a WCF service. I want the clients to be able to send the request and then disconnect and await for a callback to announce the work is done (which will most likely be searching through a database). I don't know how many requests may come in at once, it could be one every once in a while or it could spike to dozens.
As far as I know, .Net's threadpool has 25 threads available to use. What happens when I spawn 25 delegates or more? Does it throw an error, does it wait, does it pause an existing operation and start working on the new delegate, or some other behavior?
Beyond that, what happens if I want to spawn up to or more than 25 delegates while other operations (such as incoming/outgoing connections) want to start, and/or when another operation is working and I want to spawn another delegate?
I want to make sure this is scalable without being too complex.

DALLAS -- Boxing promoter Bob Arum said he's coming to Arlington on Wednesday to meet with Dallas Cowboys officials and listen to their proposal about bringing the Floyd Mayweather Jr.-Manny Pacquiao megafight to Cowboys Stadium.
Arum will be joined by Mayweather's promoter, Richard Schaefer, and HBO Sports president Ross Greenburg.
"We'll see what we see there," Arum said regarding his visit. "We're making the trip on our own dime to see what they have to offer."
The fight is scheduled for March 13, and Arum would like to make a decision on the fight site by Monday.
Cowboys officials declined comment. However, team owner and general manager Jerry Jones said on his weekly radio show that the Cowboys "haven't dropped out of anything."
A source close to the talks said the Cowboys might have to offer close to $15 million as a site fee and possibly split the live gate to get the bout.
Arum said he would not discuss how much a venue would need to pay to get the fight. The largest site fee for a bout was $12.5 million promoters paid for the June 8, 2002 heavyweight title fight between Lennox Lewis and Mike Tyson at the Pyramid Arena in Memphis.
Arum said several venues have stepped forward to host one of the biggest fights in years. He said he received a letter from The Republic of Congo about hosting the fight. New Orleans, Las Vegas and Miami have also expressed interest. Miami Dolphins officials told Arum that they would like to hold the fight at Land Shark Stadium.
Las Vegas seems to be the favorite to host the bout, but Arum and Schaefer are willing to listen to offers from other sites.
If Cowboys Stadium hosted the fight, seating capacity could reach 100,000. For the Cowboys home opener on Sept. 20, the team announced an attendance of 105,121. A bulk of those seats were in the standing-room only section on the upper level behind each end zone.
For a boxing match, stadium seating would be on the football field surrounding the ring in addition to the lower and upper bowls.
The fighters have agreed in principle to terms of the fight, but formal negotiations are not yet complete.
Having a big fight in Texas is not usual. Former heavyweight champion Muhammad Ali defended his title three times at the Astrodome in Houston and fought there four times overall.
Julio Cesar Chavez and Pernell Whitaker fought to a draw at the Alamodome in San Antonio in 1993. Retired star Oscar De La Hoya fought Patrick Charpentier in the Sun Bowl in El Paso, where over 45,000 fans attended in 1998.
In recent years, Las Vegas has hosted some of the biggest fights in recent memory.
The biggest gate in boxing history was the $18.4 million in tickets sold for Mayweather's victory over De La Hoya in 2007 at the MGM Grand Arena.
Boxing promoters, however, believe the Mayweather-Pacquiao fight could break that mark, especially if it's in a venue that can seat close to 100,000 people.

Apparently there are humans out there somewhere who actually enjoy watching porn stars "act" along with some kind of "plot," while for most, XXX fare is a glorious jack-off enhancer. If you are among the former category, Bad News Bitches is for you. Plenty of acting. Plenty of plot.
Hottie Nautica Thorn loses her job at the hands of a crotchety softball team owner, then challenges him: his team against hers (comprised of said Bitches). If she loses, she fucks the old fart; if she wins, she gets her job back - as a secretary for an asshole. Go figure.
It's a good five or 10 minutes before the sex kicks in; we're treated to unmemorable blonde Veronika Raquel fucking some guy in lighting that's way too harsh. Onward to Holly and Faith going at it in a standard, ho-hum lez tryst.
Finally, director Spears gets his, boffing Thorn. Again, and throughout, the thing looks like it was lit for a police line up; no blemish goes unseen. But what can you expect from a softball movie whose tag line is "Baseball will never be the same!!!"

Manchester United Message Board
Media Coverage
I'm surprised at how negative the media has been towards Chelsea's CL win. If it were United, Arsenal, or Liverpool, you can bet they would be praising and hailing the victory as the greatest thing since sliced bread. Instead the anti-Chelsea media bang on about aging squad (which BTW they've been on about since Fergie said that in '09, and Chelsea have won the Prem, 2 FA Cups, and a CL since), luck, 'negative' football, and other such rubbish. The fact is that Di Matteo got his selections and tactics spot on, and the team executed brilliantly on the pitch to get the right results. You don't try to outplay Barca; United tried that and got utterly humiliated TWICE. You don't go to Bayern's home ground and not play defence, especially since they have two of the best wingers in the world in 'Robbery'. Save the goal fests for the weaker teams like the 4-1 demolition of Napoli, 5-0 Genk, 3-0 Valencia, and the 5-1 destruction of Spurs in the FA Cup.
Defence is an essential part of the game and I enjoy seeing a crunching, last-ditch defensive tackle just as much as I enjoy seeing a curling drive into the top right corner of the goal. You can tell that these idiot media 'pundits' writing these articles belong to the instant gratification generation of Facebook, Twitter, etc. I bet they don't enjoy or understand games like Chess. It takes a lot of talent, discipline, and determination to play out to tactics for 90+ mins. What Chelsea did during the latter stages of the Champions League was nothing short of incredible. Lampard's sublime pass, and Ramires' exquisite lob at the Nou Camp was simply breathtaking. Coming back from 0-2 down, with the captain sent off, and at the mercy of the world's best player from 12 yards was simply one of the best matches I've ever seen.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies

You have to have an aircrash to be worshipped like the scum are.And of course a manager who can manipulate the press the way old whisky nose can, and a club DIRECTOR in a senior position at the F.A.???
- 1 Reply to redevildetester
Wow, talking about up-to-date criticisms, you go back to Munich. You bloody genius.
Are you saying we should be ashamed to be "worshipped"? Ashamed that the nation and the world were shocked and dismayed to lose most of one of the greatest teams Britain's ever produced, a team that would have been the backbone of a more successful England side for years to come? Ashamed that players volunteered their time to keep the side playing and not be penalised? Perhaps we should be ashamed of Harry Gregg running back into the plane to rescue people? Perhaps we should be ashamed of Busby rebuilding his team to become the first English team to win the European Cup?
To quote you, "knobhead".
Oh, and Mourinho and Wenger were pretty expert at "manipulating the press", and Arsenal had their own man in a senior FA position for a long time. Did they achieve what SAF and Manchester United did? (I don't expect you to actually know the answer to that rhetorical question, so I'll help you out: No, they didn't)
Were you trying to make a serious point, or are you one of those weird people, like Fabongrass, who get a rush out of just being as annoying as they can?
Wrong board, mate.
- 1 Reply to Wise Son
Not very wise, are you? It's the right board as far as I'm concerned. The number of ratings and comments proves that. If you don't have anything to add to the conversation best not say anything, eh?
So, rather than admit you were wrong, you decide to go off on some random tirade about United? Good luck to you.
Maybe you're too young to remember, but United were one of, if not the most-supported club in the World before Beckham had the number 10 shirt, never mind the 7. He helped, to be sure, but you're acting as if United had the global support of whatever club you support prior to Beckham. And Beckham's been gone for, what, a decade? Come up with a more up-to-date criticism.
" Nobody that genuinely follows football likes your club."
Well, that's just factually incorrect. Apart from the million of United fans who genuinely follow football, the achievements of the club, of specific players, and of managers like Busby and SAF have won respect all around the world. Unless you're going to use the "No True Scotsman" fallacy, and say that anyone who has expressed affection or respect for Man United automatically "doesn't genuinely follow football".

He's not a very wise one at all.
Maybe "better" is unfair. More intelligent, better at using logic and the English language, more honest, less bitter and twisted. I'm not the best, just better than you. ;-)
Anyway, I don't know which of your posts got deleted. Nothing to do with me, but it hardly surprises me that you're irritating people enough to do that. I'm also not sure who you think "got the better" of me. So far Fab and OinkOink have been shown up for the idiots they are, so unless you think you and Sandgrounder (whose gift of eloquence extends as far as "knobhead") are looking good, I'm not sure what you're getting at.
"you're on here more than most trying to defend your beloved Man U"
I'm actually on here less than most, and, looking at the most recent 5 or 6 threads, less than you. But then, this is the board for my club, so the other fans and I are meant to be here. By being here at all, you are showing that you either have so little to occupy you, or are so obsessed, that you would rather spend time here taking the mick, than talking about your own team.
Come on, mate, that's just sad. You don't even have a username to do with your own club, you only seem to have a fixation on ours.
I also don't get the "fickle" jibe. If I'm spending time pointing out the errors in your anti-United stuff, how does that make me a fickle fan? I support United. I've consistently supported United. I will continue to do so, even if we pull a Liverpool when SAF leaves, and sink to mid-table obscurity.

Hi everybody, I'm trying to implement FM receiver on usrp e110. The daugtherboard used is SBX Board Rev 5.1. As a result, I got only noise, I wasn't able to hear the local station at 103.5 Mhz.

Thanks a lot for your reply. In fact, in order to respect the band range frequency of the SBX daughterboard Rev 5.1. I sent an FM signal from a signal generator called *NI PXIe-5673* described in this link: http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/en/nid/205593. The signal that I generated, it is a sinus and has *900* *MHz *frequency. So that I created my proper FM station on 900 MHz to respect the band range frequency allowed by SBX daughterboard Rev 5.1. In order to receive the signal generated by usrp e110, I implemented an FM receiver flow graph on usrp e110 which is attached below and I used an VERT900 Antenna, described in this link: https://www.ettus.com/product/details/VERT900 . But I still have noise generated by usrp e110. Have you an idea if there is a non suitable parameter on the flow graph ? Thanks in advance Best regards, Wafa HAJ HMIDA 2014-06-12 12:33 GMT+02:00 Mike Jameson <firstname.lastname@example.com>:

Re: Specific law forbidding removal of federal loans lates
I fully understand why they are doing it. This just leaves me wishing I would have let my loans default two years ago and rehabbed them myself vs doing the right thing and paying them to begin with, struggling to pay them actually, when Nelnet would not grant forbearance any longer.

BANGI, Afghanistan (AP) - The northern alliance claimed to have seized the Taliban's last northern stronghold Sunday after a two-week siege, and hundreds of foreign fighters who had been captured in the area died in a chaotic prison uprising put down in part by U.S. airstrikes.
The fall of Kunduz, which came two days before talks are to begin in Germany on forming a broad-based government, leaves the Islamic militia with only a small slice of Afghanistan still under its control, mostly around the southern city of Kandahar.
Thousands of Taliban troops as well as Arab, Chechen, Pakistani and other foreign fighters linked to Osama bin Laden had been holed up in Kunduz, which the alliance said fell almost without a fight.
"All of Kunduz is in our control," commander Daoud Khan told The Associated Press after nightfall.
The northern alliance's acting foreign minister, Abdullah, said there were still some pockets of resistance within the city but told CBS' "Face the Nation" that "as a whole ... Kunduz is liberated."
Pro-Taliban fighters including foreigners fled Sunday toward the town of Chardara with alliance troops in pursuit, he said by satellite telephone from the north of Afghanistan.
While some chose to make a run for it, others surrendered by the thousands as northern alliance troops moved in.
Under a pact negotiated earlier between the alliance and the Taliban, Afghan Taliban fighters were guaranteed safe passage out of the city but the foreigners were to be arrested pending investigation into possible ties to bin Laden.
Outside the city of Mazar-e-Sharif, 100 miles to the west, hundreds of foreigners who had been captured earlier in the Kunduz area staged a prison uprising, leading to a daylong battle with northern alliance guards. U.S. aircraft helped quash the insurrection.
Hundreds of foreign Taliban prisoners were killed, U.S. and alliance officials said.
A U.S. special forces soldier inside the Qalai Janghi fortress was taped by a German television crew saying an American may have died.
"I don't know how many Americans there were," the U.S. soldier was taped at the scene as saying in English. "I think one was killed, but I'm not sure. There were two of us at least, me and some other guy."
The U.S. Central Command, which oversees the war in Afghanistan, declined comment on whether U.S. forces were in the fortress, and spokesman Lt. Cmdr. Dave Culler said he "could not give any word at all" on U.S. casualties.
Culler suggested the uprising was in effect a suicide mission. At least one foreign fighter had killed himself Saturday while surrendering, witnesses said - giving himself up, then setting off a hand grenade when an alliance officer approached.
The fighters had smuggled weapons under their tunics into the Qalai Janghi fortress and tried to fight their way out, Pentagon spokesman Lt. Col. Dan Stoneking said. The Pentagon estimated that fighters numbered 300; the northern alliance had said previously there were 700 prisoners in the facility.
Yahsaw, a spokesman for northern alliance commander Mohammed Mohaqik, said the prisoners broke down doors, seized weapons and ammunition, and fought a pitched battle with guards that lasted some seven hours.
An Associated Press reporter entering the city Sunday evening heard explosions coming from the direction of the fortress. Stoneking, the Pentagon spokesman, confirmed that U.S. airstrikes had helped Gen. Rashid Dostum's forces regain control of the prison. Dostum brought in about 500 troops to quash the unrest, he said.
In other developments:
n In Herat, northern alliance commander Mohammed Zaer Azimi said Taliban leaders were discussing the possibility of Kandahar's surrender, but offered no details. He also said alliance forces were preparing for a major attack on Helmand, another Taliban stronghold in the south. But it is unclear whether the alliance has enough men and heavy weapons to press an offensive in the south.
n Anti-Taliban tribal fighters in southern Afghanistan have cut off a key road leading to the Islamic militia's stronghold of Kandahar, tribal leaders said Sunday in Pakistan. The report could not be independently verified but if true would be a significant blow to the Taliban because the route is a major supply line to Pakistan.
n Representatives of three key Afghan groups left for Germany on Sunday to attend a U.N.-sponsored meeting aimed at forming a broad-based government in war-torn Afghanistan. One delegate, Syed Hamid Gailani, expressed doubts the conference would succeed because the factions are not sending their top leaders.
n An Islamic militant leader from Uzbekistan who was a key ally of Osama bin Laden was killed in northern Afghanistan, an anti-Taliban general said Sunday. Juma Namangani, 32, was fatally injured during fighting for the northern city of Mazar-e-Sharif, where the Taliban were routed on Nov. 9, according to Gen. Daoud Khan said.

Sony on the comeback trail
2010 Chevrolet Aveo5
"Coolness Factor"
Build Quality
Ease of Use
Sound Quality
I wasn't sure what to expect, since I never really use any subs smaller than 10's (usually 12's-15's) but this sub in a sealed .39 cu.ft. box (with a little quilt-batting on the internal walls to break up standing waves) running off of an old school Sony XM-604EQX's bridged rear channels (4 ohms; about 160 watts rms), this thing sounds like a really good SQ-oriented 10. Quite frankly this little guy amazes anyone who hears it. I demo'd the car when it was finished to a friend who used to run a car stereo shop and judged at SQ competitions back in the 80's-90's (the "golden era" of car audio) and he was impressed with the accuracy and that it could still hit the lower notes with authority. He was around when Sony switched everything to the Xplod marketing, did away with the high end stuff (Mobile ES) and started to go cheap on quality. He remarked that this sounds as good as some of the old high-end stuff. GS seems to= the new ES? Sony is making a comeback with the GS line and is killing off the Xplod motif altogether. Good move! The install: Head unit is a Sony XAV-68BT. It's a sound quality set up in my daughter's car. With some old school Sony Mobile ES Xplod XS-HF58's up front. Have the sub crossed over at 160 to help with the blend with the smaller 5 1/4 mid-basses up front in the doors, and the tweeters in the stock locations. Stinger RoadKill was used as sound deadening throughout doors and in the rear hatch area. Factory rear 4x6's were deleted; sub fire
Pros: very good sound quality but still has great low-freq extension (in sealed) good power handling for an 8 low airspace requirements looks quality and is aesthetically pleasing excellent value
Cons: not for me, but some may be looking for more SPL out of this size sub...in that case, you need to look at something ranging from an Alpine Type-R to the JL Audio 8W7AE-3.

Cancun news: The dirty fight against clean energy
Our guest blogger is Mike Casey, president of cleantech communications firm Tigercomm.
When I started working on solar energy issues several years ago, I heard it repeatedly: "Everyone loves solar." Back then, many people in solar and other cleantech sectors saw long-term meritocracy in the energy business. Public demand, technological advances and an inevitable price on carbon were going to drive cleantech to dominance over time. "Renewable energy," it was often said, "will soon become just plain 'energy.'"
From the gridlocked global warming treaty negotiations here in Cancun, however, the picture seems starkly different.
The congressional climate bill fight ended in disaster, the recession tightened credit markets, and the coal and oil industries bought themselves a new Congress last month. And that global carbon market many were counting on? The most optimistic note Thursday night from a top U.S. treaty negotiator, Jonathan Pershing, was "Maybe next year."
Still, cleantech possesses a great combination of assets that many industries spend considerable time and money trying to generate. These include policy momentum, business success, and wide and deep public support. California's anti-cleantech Proposition 23 lost by a huge margin last month, solar is creating jobs in all 50 states, and over 90% of Americans support solar energy, while 87% believe we should build more wind farms.
However, that asset combination has also moved solar, wind, battery storage, and energy efficiency technologies from being cute niceties to potentially serious market disruptors for traditional dirty energy players. The dirty energy guys know that, and they are acting accordingly:
– A series of anti-cleantech editorials on the Wall Street Journal editorial page
– Sniping from fossil-funded front groups and "experts" for hire
– Seemingly random hit pieces on individual renewable energy projects
– ExxonMobil's New York Times front page ad falsely equating fossil fuel subsidies with those of wind and solar
– An emerging class of "green ingrates," pro-dirty energy pundits posing as cleantech players
– Chevron's pioneering of what I've begun calling "cleantech washing" "" pretending to promote clean energy while actually undercutting it
Virtually all of these attacks push three interlocking memes about cleantech: 1) It's "not ready"; 2) It's "too expensive"; and 3) It's "unreliable." And the message discipline and sheer number of these attacks make it very likely they are being underwritten and coordinated by people with a vested interest in making them happen.
Cleantech is now in a full-contact game with dirty energy, which is playing accordingly. The attacks by dirty energy are serious, coordinated, and are beginning to get traction in public opinion research. By generating, stimulating, or exacerbating customer concerns about readiness, cost and reliability, the attacks are affecting the marketing and sales environment for large and small cleantech companies. It's in each cleantech player's financial interest to help to mount a more concerted effort to push back against detractors.
Clean energy needs to capture people's imaginations, not just their intellects. There's far too much engineer-speak, facts, figures, watts, and jargon dominating cleantech communications. Emory University psychologist Dr. Drew Westen conducted groundbreaking research in 2004, finding that people make decisions first and foremost at the emotional level, and only then do they begin rational consideration. In fact, Westen found, humans are incapable of doing otherwise. The cleantech community should assume there's a reason why deep-pocketed Chevron and the coal front group, America's Power Army, have spent huge sums on advertising and marketing materials with a certain feel to them.
Cleantech companies have strong individual interests in collective brand defense. A great recent example of a cleantech executive doing his company a service through collective brand defense was SPG Solar CEO Tom Rooney's piece making the case that political conservatives should support clean energy. "One of the biggest challenges is helping solar companies talk about the context "" why they matter and how they're affecting their industry in the broader picture," said Edelman's Kimberly Kupecki at a recent panel. "It's another way we can simply and cheaply be our own advocates."
Cleantech voices need to frame the cost argument properly by relentlessly pointing out that fossil fuels' supposed cheapness is underwritten by massive taxpayers subsidies. On October 12, 2010, Solar Energy Industry Association CEO and President Rhone Resch called for cutting the "grotesque" subsidies to fossil industries. Just two weeks later, ExxonMobil ran a remarkably defensive ad in the form of an obfuscating quiz on subsidies at the bottom of the front page of the New York Times.
Cleantech managers and investors are busy trying to build successful companies, but their growing successes have drawn the opposition of status quo players who don't want them to succeed. That's why the dirty energy industries are now spending significant resources to harden the marketing and sales environment against cleantech's success. All the facts, figures and solid product offerings in the world won't overcome that problem if this emerging threat isn't faced.
Dirty energy is playing full contact. Are we ready to do the same?

Great post, and thanks for it!
Leaders Ponder Kyoto Protocol at Cancun Summit
World leaders at the UN Climate Change Conference are trying to hammer out a new deal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Countries are wondering whether to follow the precedents set by previous climate summits in Kyoto or Copenhagen. http://www.newslook.com/videos/273317-leaders-ponder-kyoto-protocol-at-cancun-summit?autoplay=true
Cancun would be a blinding success if they eliminated hundreds of billions of annual global fossil fuel subsidies (and did not divert these to uranium). Even on a fairness basis historically, clean energy is trillions behind mining the lithosphere for "energy."
As always illuminating. Fantastic blog. Thanks.

We had better be. I am reminded of some words from John Wyndham's Re-birth, translated so memorably into song by Grace Slick and the Jefferson Airplane: "In loyalty to their kind, they cannot tolerate our rise. In loyalty to our kind, we cannot tolerate their obstruction."

1. Define the peritoneum and peritoneal cavity.
Peritoneum is a large thin transparent sheet of serous membrane which lines the walls of the abdominopelvic cavity and is reflected on the viscera. The peritoneal cavity is a potential space between adjacent layers of peritoneum usually containing a small amount of fluid.
2. Understand what distinguishes parietal from visceral peritoneum.
The parietal peritoneum lines the abdominal and pelvic walls. The visceral peritoneum covers the abdominal and pelvic organs.
3. Describe the shape and extent of the peritoneal cavity.
The peritoneal cavity is subdivided by the greater and lesser omentum into two sacs called the greater and lesser sacs. The omental foramen connects the two sacs. This is a closed space in males but communicates with the exterior in females (the fallopian tubes of the female reproductive tract communicate with the outside, suggesting a possible advanced education of the female immune system).
4. Know what borders of the greater and lesser sac are.
The greater sac is the main and larger part of the peritoneal cavity. The lesser sac lies posterior to the stomach and adjoining structures. These two sacs are connected by the omental foramen.
5. Describe the components of the greater and lesser omentums.
The omentum is a double layer of peritoneum attached to the stomach and proximal part of the duodenum.
The lesser omentum attaches the stomach along the lesser curvature to the liver. It is subdivided into the hepatogastric and hepatoduodenal ligaments.
The greater omentum attaches to the stomach along the greater curvature to the posterior abdominal wall. It is subdivided into the gastrophrenic, gastrosplenic, and gastrocolic ligaments.
6. Know what forms the borders of the epiploic foramen. What spaces does it connect.
The epiploic or omental formamen connects the greater and lesser abdominal sacs. This opening is posterior to the free edge of the lesser omentum (hepatoduodenal ligament) and can be located by running a finger along the gallbladder to the free edge of the lesser omentum. The hepatoduodenal ligament contains the bile duct, hepatic artery and portal vein.
The boundaries of the omental foramen are:
Portal vein, hepatic artery, and bile duct contained in the hepatoduodenal ligament (free edge of the lesser omentum)
Inferior vena cava, and right crus of diaphragm, covered with parietal peritoneum (retroperitoneal).
Caudate lobe of the liver, covered with visceral peritoneum.
Superior or first part of the duodenum, portal vein, hepatic artery, and bile duct.
7. Know what organs and structures within the abdomen are intraperitoneal (peritoneal) and which are primarily and secondary retroperitoneal.
Transverse Colon
Sigmoid Colon
Primary Retroperitoneal
Suprarenal glands
Secondary Retroperitoneal
Ascending Colon
Descending Colon
8. Be able to describe and give examples of peritoneal folds and recesses.
Peritoneal folds are ridges on the surface of the body wall covered with parietal peritoneum. These ridges are produced by an underlying vessel, duct, or obliterated fetal vessel. There are five folds: two lateral umbilical folds formed by the inferior epigastric vessels, two medial umbilical folds formed by the obliterated umbilical artery, and one median umbilical fold formed by the urachus.
Peritoneal recesses are a pouch of peritoneum formed by peritoneal folds or ligaments. There is a hepatorenal pouch in the superior part of the abdomen and a rectovesical pouch in males, and a retrouterine pouch in females in the inferior part of the abdomen. When a person lies on his/her back, fluid tends to accumulate in these pouches.
9. Distinguish between mesentery, mesocolon, greater omentum, lesser omentum, and the various peritoneal ligaments.
A double layer of peritoneum that connects an intraperitoneal organ to the posterior abdominal wall. It has a connective tissue core with blood vessels, nerves, and lymphatics that travel to and from the intraperitoneal organ. Organs with a mesentery are freely movable.
The mesentery of the large intesting is the mesocolon.
Greater Omentum
The greater omentum attaches to the stomach along the greater curvature and the proximal part of the duodenum to the posterior abdominal wall. It is subdivided into the gastrophrenic, gastroplenic, and gastrocolic ligaments. It is a prominent peritoneal fold that hangs down like an apron and folds back and attaches to the anterior surface of the transverse colon and its mesentery.
Lesser Omentum
The lesser omentum attaches the stomach along the lesser curvature to the liver. It is subdivided into the hepatogastric and hepatoduodenal ligaments.
Peritoneal Ligaments
Consists of a double layer of peritoneum which connect organs to other organs or organs to the abdominal wall.
The liver is connected to the anterior abdominal wall by the falciform ligament, the stomach by the gastrohepatic ligament, and the duodenum by the hepatoduodenal ligament. The gastrohepatic and hepatoduodenal ligament are part of the lesser omentum.
The stomach is connected to the inferior surface of the diaphragm by the gastrophrenic ligament, the spleen by the gastrosplenic ligament, and the transverse colon by the gastrocolic ligament. The greater omentum and the gastrosplenic ligament are continuous.
10. List and describe the peritoneal gutters.
The attachments of the mesentery as well as the positions of the ascending and descending colon to the posterior abdominal wall form four "gutters" that can conduct materials (blood, ascites, infectious agents, tumor cells, bile, etc.) to other regions of the abdominal cavity.
Right Paracolic Gutter
Materials from the hepatorenal pouch and the supracolic compartment of the abdomen (above the transfer colon) conduct towards the infracolic compartment through the right paracolic gutter because the phrenicocolic ligament on the left side blocks flow to the left paracolic gutter.
Left Paracolic Gutter
Drains only the left paracolic side in the infracolic compartment because materials from the supracolic compartment are blocked by the phrenicocolic ligament and flow through the right paracolic gutter instead.
Right Infracolic Space
A "dead space" that can allow fluid to fill up because it is blocked by mesentery. When fluid overflows, it then flows into the left infracolic space and down towards the rectovesical/rectouterine pouch.
Left Infracolic Space
Flows directly towards the rectovesical/rectouterine pouch.
11. Describe the peritoneal reflections located on the anterior abdominal wall.
The coronary ligaments are two peritoneal reflections on the diaphragmatic surface of the liver, and the posterior side of the liver formed by the greater and lesser sacs respectively. The two coronary ligaments come anteriorly and unite to become continuous with the falciform ligament which is the only peritoneal reflection that anchors to the anterior abdominal wall.
Additionally, the gastrocolic ligament of the greater omentum is another peritoneal reflection that runs along the anterior abdominal wall.
12. List all the three unpaired branches of the abdominal aorta. Know the terminal branches of these main arteries.
The three main unpaired branches of the abdominal aorta are the celiac artery, the superior mesenteric artery, and the inferior mesenteric artery.
The celiac artery gives off the left gastric artery, supplying the stomach. It then branches into the splenic artery and the common hepatic artery. The splenic artery branches into the short gastric arteries, the left gastro-omental atery, and the pancreatic arteries. The common hepatic artery gives off the gastroduodenal artery and continues as the proper hepatic artery. The gastroduodenal artery splits into the superduodenal artery, the superior pacreaticoduodenal artery, and the right gastro-omental artery. The proper hepatic artery branches inot the right gastric artery, and the left and right hepatic arteries.
The superior mesenteric artery gives off five branches to supply the ascending colon, and the transverse colon: the inferior pacreaticoduodenal, instestinal branches, ileocolic, right colic and middle colic arteries. These arteries anastomose in the marginal artery of Drummond to provide redundant blood supply to the intestines, allowing a person to survive occlusions in the blood supply of the intestines.
The inferior mesenteric artery gives off three branches to supply the descending colon, sigmoid colon, and superior portion of the rectum: the left colic, sigmoidal, and superior rectal arteries. The superior rectal artery is always the last, most medial artery.
13. Describe the venous drainage for the abdomen. What is the hepatic portal system?
Venous drainage for the abdomen occurs through the hepatic portal system where blood passes through two capillary beds in the intestine and the liver before returning to the heart. This pathway allows unprocesses nutrients, etc. absorbed from the intestines to enter the liver for processing before entering systemic circulation.
The hepatic portal venous system begins at the venous ends of the capillaries in the organs of the GI tract and ends at the venous sinusoids in the liver. The portal vein is formed by the joining of the splenic vein with the superior mesenteric vein. The inferior mesenteric vein usually joins the splenic vein.
14. What is a portal-systemic anastomoses? Where do these occur in the body and what is their clinical significance.
A portal-systemic anastomosis is a connection between the venous drainage of the portal system with the systemic system. Portal hypertension can occur when portal circulation through the liver is obstructed by liver disease (cirrhosis) or tumor. Because portal system veins do not have valves, the rising pressure would cause blood to find alternative pathways to reach the systemic system, bypassing the liver and causing varicosities (enlarged veins).
Treatment of portal hypertension can be by producing a shunt surgically between the portal vein and the inferior vena cava to reduce the pressure.
Esophageal varices
Between esophageal branch of left gastric portal vein and esophageal branches to azygous (systemic veins). Because the enlarged vein bulges into the esophagus, a large bolus traveling down the esophagus could tear the vein open and result in death by exsanguination, which is totally not cool.
Between superior rectal branch of inferior mesenteric vein (portal) and the middle / inferior rectal vein to the internal iliac (systemic).
Caput Medusae
Between paraumbilical branch of portal v. (in falciform ligament) and the superior / inferior epigastric veins (systemic).
Retroperitoneal Varices (veins of Retzius)
Between colic / duodenal / pancreatic veins and the lumbar / renal veins to the inferior vena cava (systemic).

This weekend ushers in a big-screen comedy that tests the limits of the road trip movie formula with head-and-neck punches, snake bites, car crashes and some excruciatingly uncomfortable roadside run-ins. It's only fitting we take a look back at torturous scenes in road trip movies through the years.
But first: In "Identity Thief," Diana (Melissa McCarthy) is so busted when the man whose identity she has stolen (Jason Bateman) comes a-knocking. Sandy Patterson's effort to hunt down his outrageous lady criminal spirals into a series of awkward, cringe-worthy and downright painful circumstances. Beyond all the physical beat-downs both characters endure, the most excruciating moment in the film is perhaps when Sandy -- who must stay in close proximity to Diana at all times -- is forced to listen to her spend a weird, loud, passionate night with a gentleman she just met at a roadside bar -- quite memorably played by Eric Stonestreet (see the clip below).
See some of the most painful road trip movie moments of all time:
'Those aren't pillows!'
It takes seeing "Planes, Trains and Automobiles" just one time before the famed Steve Martin line is forever seared into viewers' minds. In the 1987 John Hughes film, Martin plays Neal, the very reluctant travel mate of Del, played by the late John Candy. Like the awkward "Identity Thief" scene mentioned above, the two find themselves sharing a hotel room. Unlike the aforementioned Bateman-McCarthy scene, Neal and Del must share a bed. When they awaken, they are snuggled up like a married couple and Del's hand is exactly where it's not supposed to be, sending shock and horror through Neal.
The end of the road
From a roadside murder to some highway robbery, there are many extreme moments in "Thelma & Louise" (1991) -- but none seem quite as agonizing as when the ladies drive off a cliff to their imminent deaths in order to escape the law.
Reanimated deer
Chris Farley and David Spade play two guys who hit the road to save their local Ohio auto parts plant. While driving they hit a deer and drag its lifeless body into the backseat of their car. The deer comes back to life, thrashes around, and runs away -- but not before completely destroying their ride.
Existential downer
Aside from Owen Wilson's facial injuries and the brothers' familial angst, the most painful moment in Wes Anderson's "The Darjeeling Limited" (2007) is when the three male siblings find themselves stranded as their train is strangely said to be "lost." They ultimately find themselves transporting -- by foot -- the lifeless body of an Indian boy who Adrien Brody's character failed to save in the water.
Worst possible scenario
One of the most seminal road trip movies of all time -- heck, one of the most influential movies of all time -- "Easy Rider" (1969) ends with a bang... in a really bad way. Both motorcycle-riding, free-spirited lead characters, played by Peter Fonda and the late Dennis Hopper, get cruelly shot down right before the credits role.
Wedding crisis
Jack (Thomas Haden Church) gets a beat down from his new lover Stephanie (Sandra Oh) when she finds out he is about to tie the knot with someone else in "Sideways" (2004). And that's when it devolves into the road trip from hell for both Jack and his buddy Miles (Paul Giamatti).
There are literally hundreds of road trip films out there. List your favorite painful movie moment in the comments below!

Performance for Silverlight Mobile
Born and raised in Mumbai, India. Got my Bachelors of Engineering in Information Technology at VJTI, Mumbai. Moved to USA for my Masters in Computer Science at SUNY, Buffalo. Landed a job as an Software Development Engineer in Test at Microsoft on the Office Project team in March 2008 and shipped a core feature "Statusing" on Office Project Server 2010. As part of that job, I did a lot of performance testing and enjoyed it. Made a transition on to Silverlight for Windows Phone 7 team as a Performance Program Manager in July 2010. Key aspect of this job is to keep the users (developers) up to date on the most performant ways of using the Silverlight App Platform. Will also be sharing out my learning experience of the platform for developers new to it, like me.
Learn tips and tricks to make your application smoother, things to avoid in various stages of development. Important basic links to get you on board with performance.

Politics The Great Debate
posted by October 17 at 18:46 PMon
As Erica and Dan have already slogged, our endorsements are out.
One controversial endorsement is our recommendation to vote against the $17.8 billion roads and transit package (Sound Transit and RTID Proposition No. 1)
Tomorrow, we'll be posting footage from our editorial board interview, when we had the pro and con sides in to duke it out and answer questions.
It was a heated, hour-long debate, and Kelly O. and I spent today editing it down into two 10-minute videos. (YouTube regulations.)
Part One includes the following chapters:
"If we vote 'Yes.'"
"It's disingenuous."
"I'm going to be completely disingenuous."
"If we're going to reduce it."
"So, you guys say."
"Politicians don't get to say."
"And in response to Sandeep's Qustion."
"What the Sierra Club has done."
Part Two concludes the debate with the following chapters:
"I want 50 miles of light rail so bad."
"The revenue source."
"If we don't take this opportunity."
"I'm not a political genius."
"I just don't think it's realistic."
"Holy shit."

Crash leads to DUI chargeOctober 07,2013Crash leads
to DUI charge
ROYALTON A Bethel woman escaped injury, but not a criminal citation, following an early morning accident that totaled her car Sunday on North Road.
Vermont State Police, who were summoned to the scene of the one-car crash by 23-year-old Sarah Goobic shortly before 4 a.m. Sunday, said they later arrested Goobic for drunken driving.
According to police, Goobic lost control of the 2005 Chevrolet Cobalt she was driving and the car went off the road and overturned. It was destroyed, they said.
Goobic, who police said was unhurt, called for assistance from a nearby home and informed police of the crash.
When they arrived at the scene, police said they determined Goobic had been driving under the influence of alcohol and took her into custody. She was later released on a citation to appear at the criminal courthouse in White River Junction on Oct. 22.MORE IN This Just InEmployee charged

It fits a bit looser than I expected however, that does make it a bit easier to manage. I have a south side driveway and am very pleased with the UV protection. I do use a bungee cord to secure it. It packs down small enough that it will be easy to take camping to protect against pitch getting on the cab. I am pleased with the quality and would not hesitate to recommend this cover.

Thanks, no issues in the rear, I've got a 2.3 Hans Dampf on it and it's never rubbed. The only issue in the front using a 26" fork is that leaves get stuck more easily and make noise and if I jump to flat the tire will rub the crown. But that's jumping to flat, normal riding never. If the 650b version of the fork was available when I built it I would have bought that. The bike rides great with the bigger wheels.

This recipe came from the back of a bag of miniature marshmellows. I forgot the official name of the recipe before I got around to writing it down on a recipe card, so this was what my brother and I came up with. Extremely simple and good.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 1 1⁄2 cups chocolate chips
- 4 cups miniature marshmallows
- Grease a 9x9 pan.
- Melt peanut butter and chips together in microwave. Just as its melted, fold in the marshmallows.
- Put into the greased pan. Refrigerate until firm.
- Cut into squares.
Most Helpful
This is soooooo good - but really, how can you go wrong with pb, choc & marshmallows?!? Instead of a greased pan, I put a piece of wax paper in the pan and spread the mix on top. Once chilled, I just pulled out the wax paper, peeled it off, & sliced the pudge into squares - super super easy! Thanks for the recipe!
This was awesome! Made it for Christmas trays and the hubby got addicted to it! Thank you so much for sharing.
I made this with my daughter yesterday as I had all of the ingredients. It came out really good. The whole family loved it. I think it I make it again I would add peanuts. Thanks for the great recipe.

- Meet UK's next Prime Minister Theresa May
NEW DELHI: Theresa May will take charge as UK's Prime Minister on Wednesday after her last rival in the bid to succeed David Cameron, Andrea Leadsom, pulled out. Here are a few things to know about this Conservative leader: Political life Theresa May, 59, is a 'no-nonsense' politician from the rural constituency of Maidenhead in Royal Berkshire. She was first elected as MP of Maidenhead in 1997 and later appointed to William Hague's shadow cabinet. An experienced politician, May has been the Home Secretary for the UK government for more than six years. She is one of the longest serving Home Secretaries in history. May became the first female chairman of the Conservative Party in the year 2002. Known for her steely determination and the willingness to stand up to men who traditionally dominate British politics, this Conservative leader has been compared to the likes of Angela Merkel and Margaret Thatcher. "I know I'm not a showy politician," May said about her leadership style. "I don't tour the television studios. I don't gossip about people over lunch. I don't go drinking in Parliament's bars," she added. (AFP photo) May, though a known Conservative, was not part of the ultra-right wing that led the "Leave" campaign during the EU referendum. She is also well known for her hard stand on the issue of immigration, a key issue behind the EU referendum. This year, she introduced a policy limiting the number of non-EU citizens who can qualify to live and work in the UK. "There are millions of people in poorer countries who would love to live in Britain, and there is a limit to the amount of immigration any country can and should take. We must have an immigration system that allows us to control who comes into our country." The Independent quoted her as saying. In 2012, she expressed her support for same-sex marriage.With this, she became one of the first high-profile Conservative MPs to support for same-sex marriage. "I believe if two people care for each other, if they love each other, if they want to commit to each other... then they should be able to get married and marriage should be for everyone", May said. Personal life After completing her education from the Oxford University, she worked with the Bank of England for a few years before venturing into politics. She married Philip John May in 1980 and they have been married for 35 years now. Philip, a banker and also an Oxford graduate, met her during their years at the University. Theresa May with her husband Philip John May. (AFP photo) May has Type 1 diabetes, and she requires four insulin injections a day. Lastly, May has also been in the limelight for her dressing style. Famous for her eye catching shoes, the UK media has always noticed her love for chic footwear. Last year, her choice of black, patent-leather over-the-knee boots to greet the Queen was much talked about. (With inputs from agencies)
