5 great filmamd64legend | 13/03/2011 | See all amd64legend's reviews (1)Do not forget though that in the book Ron is trying to destroy the horcrux and in the process the horcrux shows him a picture of harry and hermione kissing etc. the same thing applies with the film the only difference is they are naked but i think that gives us imagination as to what lengths the horcrux will do to prevent itself being destroyed?By the way this film is one of the best.
2 Snorefestcutmasterfrost | 12/04/2011 | See all cutmasterfrost's reviews (3)this is awful and boring, the blu ray version is basically watching a black screen for 2:30 hours, to much hype and not enough action. pointless splitting it in to two, cause all the scene are dragged out to film the 5 hours time frame overall.why bother, i can spend a much more spellbinding evening with some fairy lights and a torch
1 dullemperor10 | 11/04/2011 | See all emperor10's reviews (277)yet again, another harry potter film that 'is darker than the previous films', and yet, for me, it just dragged on and on. for me, Daniel Radcliffe and emma watson are over-rated,terrible actors, with rupert grint the only saving grace. i really didnt care for any of them. basically, surely teenagers with wands. the first few films were ok, and entertaining, but, like the books, now try to take themselves too seriously,and be something they are not.
3 highly overratedsparkerl01 | 13/02/2011 | See all sparkerl01's reviews (4)This film tries to be so much more than it is and struggles to engage throughout. Being just the first half of the book the film has a slow pace and of course creates no climax. No one goes to see a film for the beggining so it shouldn't be a surprise that this film isn't so good and hopefully part 2 will be an improvement (it would struggle not to be). The fact that when reviewing this film you have to highlight that part 2 should be better is a sign that this film cannot be seen as a good standalone movie and i feel that when your charging people to see 2 parts to one film both parts should be as equally good and worth the money. Sadly i feel this film doesnt impress and infact highlights the crucial flaw in all harry potter films, the acting. As the title suggests this film is highly overrated but still does what it needs to set up part 2 unfortunately thats all it is a set up for a better film.
5 Excellent movie 4.5 stars......Cashman | 12/04/2011 | See all Cashman's reviews (35)Having just watched this on Blu Ray I gotta say I thought it was an excellent film - the series has grown up with its viewers and I had no issues with it being too dark to see at all, the world they are in seems more devoid of the happiness in the earlier films so I think the producers have tried to show this with the tones and colours used, a lot of familiar places and faces look visibly older and worn as they prepare for the final showdown.....I personally felt the story progressed at a decent pace and I am definately looking forward to the next instalment, I would say worth a watch/rent if not a fan and if you are a fan just buy it, its good and Blu Ray and 5.1 sound quality are excellent.


text: The Tourist Djembe by Africa Heartwood Project is designed to offer a budget drum for the home decor buyer, or drummer whose emphasis is more on the looks of the drum than its virtues as a quality musical instrument. These drums are typical of what you would find at an open-air market in Ghana, are likely the type of drum-souvenir most tourists take home with them after a holiday in Ghana, and is similar to most drums exported from Ghana. The size is standard for an adult drummer, about 12-13" head X about 24" tall. This particular model features a nice stain, deep carved elephant, with hair left on the skin (provides a unique, softer playing sound), and black rope. For comparitive information, please use our Djembe Selector Table. Exact size and style will vary from photos above, but will be similar.

Welcome to Health and Tourism! |
Welcome to PAHO's Health and Tourism initiative. As tourism has continued to grow internationally and in the Latin American and Caribbean Region, PAHO has worked to ensure that this increasingly important economic and social activity intersects with and connects with public health and development issues in a positive way, contributing to better health for tourists and local populations, and encouraging cooperative work between key actors and organizations within these fields. PAHO has been engaged in work relating to Health and Tourism since the 1990s, when focus shifted from exclusively tourist oriented strategies to tourist, host country, and host population oriented strategies, bringing Health and Tourism into the sustainable human development sphere. Today, PAHO's Health and Tourism program continues to work toward a vision of tourism which incorporates "health for all", and its primary objectives include the promotion and implementation of sustainable tourism projects and the establishment of a permanent forum of discussion between strategic partners on health, tourism, social and human development. Find out more! Join our listserve or follow us on twitter!

A beach with a Jacuzzi? Only in Nice. The city offers over a dozen private beaches, besides the ones located in the centre, which are the most popular. Rent one of the typical Nice blue chairs.
The capital of Côte d'Azur, by the Mediterranean, offers the most beautiful beaches in the region. In the Promenade des Anglais area, you will find the most popular beaches. From holidaymakers playing volleyball to children running along the beach, the fun is never-ending. But if you prefer quieter places, you can also find them. You will find tranquillity in one of the 15 private beaches in the area, where you will pay approximately 15 euros to gain access and you're not allowed to take food. You will have to use one of the beach restaurants. Choose a salad. It won't be too expensive and it will make you feel healthy. A few examples are the Castel Plage beach, Opéra Plage, Plage Beau Rivage, Neptune Plage. You will also have Blue Beach, where you can practise several water activities, and much more. This beach even has a Jacuzzi. It is one of the most popular with celebrities. It you have children, they will love the swimming pool for children under eight years-old, at the beach. If you still prefer the buzz of beaches, you can rent a kayak and go to one of the many beaches in the region. A tradition among sunbathers in Nice are the traditional blue chairs. Feel like a resident a rent one too.

It's IP vs. ATM in all-out-war
June 30, 1998 8:00 pm | by Fred Dawson, Contributing Editor | CommentsPractitioners of the anything-but-ATM data networking religion are finding ever more reasons to believe IP-based transport solutions represent a winning approach to taking on incumbent carriers, but they shouldn't get too carried away.

A Christmas tale?
June 30, 1998 8:00 pm | by Roger Brown, Editor in Chief | CommentsRecent rumblings suggest there's a delay in the DOCSIS (data-over-cable service interface specification) testing process that's underway in CableLabs' incubator. Those close to the process say there's no delay, just unrealistic expectations surrounding the testing process, and undo focus on the certification "sticker" that will be issued to vendors who survive the tests.
SCTE 1998 Cable-Tec Expo
June 30, 1998 8:00 pm | by Michael Lafferty, Associate Editor | CommentsDenver may be the "cable TV capital," but until now, it had not hosted a major industry trade show. All that changed last month when thousands of technical folks arrived in the Mile High City for the annual SCTE Cable-Tec Expo. Among its business in Denver, the Society bestowed a number of honors on industry luminaries, and also elected a new chairman at the Expo.
Analog vs. BER testing
June 30, 1998 8:00 pm | by Eric Schnettler, Electrical Engineer, Philips Broadband Networks | CommentsLike the proverbial freight train that's thundering down the mountain, cable TV's rush into the digital era has begun in earnest. Led by Tele-Communications Inc.'s deployment of hundreds of digital headends and hundreds of thousands of digital set-tops, cable installers and technicians are setting up and troubleshooting digital equipment every day.
It's time to bury the hatchet
May 31, 1998 8:00 pm | by Roger Brown, Editor in Chief | CommentsThe latest round of bickering came after a "digital TV working group" of the Joint Engineering Committee met — for the first time — to begin hammering out what a "cable-ready" digital TV should look like. Representatives from both industries met and were treated to a prepared presentation by the co-chair who represents the consumer electronics side.
Taxing the Internet
May 31, 1998 8:00 pm | by Jeffrey Krauss, Internet Surfer, Taxpayer and President of Telecommunications and Technology Policy | CommentsThere are at least three kinds of taxes that come up when people talk about taxing the Internet. The first kind is state sales taxes on items purchased over the Internet. That's not an FCC issue, but it is a controversial issue that Congress will have to deal with. A second kind of tax is telephone access charges.
Telcos think VDSL may be video savior
May 31, 1998 8:00 pm | by Fred Dawson, Contributing Editor | CommentsTechnological advances emerging in stride with rising concern over an aggressively expanding cable industry are leading the telcos back to their future. Like it or not, local exchange carriers are once again confronting the fact that the ability to offer video entertainment services is vital to holding onto their core residential voice and dial-up data market.
Installing the future
May 31, 1998 8:00 pm | by Michael Lafferty, Associate Editor | CommentsHigh-speed data-over-cable. Telephony. Digital video and interactive TV. These are the new buzzwords of the '90s as cable network operators rush to take advantage of their high-bandwidth networks by deploying new, feature rich services in their drive to derive more revenues from their customers. The hardware side of the house, which has had problems keeping up with it all, is nearing the point ...
Shaping the competitive landscape
May 31, 1998 8:00 pm | by Michael Lafferty, Associate Editor | CommentsTwo years after its passage, the Telecommunications Act of 1996 is finally producing some new competitive alliances. A heretofore obscure section of the legislation (Section 103) allows previously-restricted public utility holding companies to create subsidiaries that can provide telecommunications and information services without prior SEC approval.
Broadband battle shaping up in Denver
May 31, 1998 8:00 pm | by Michael Lafferty, Associate Editor | CommentsIt's not news that Denver has long been considered the center of the cable universe. It's home to a host of MSOs and cable-centric businesses. The industry's most important research and development work is being done at CableLabs, located just west of town. And it won't be too long before ground is broken on the University of Denver campus for the National Cable Center and Museum.
Dancing to a happy tune
April 30, 1998 8:00 pm | by Roger Brown | CommentsWhen it comes to digital video, Tele-Communications Inc. is out there on its own, boldly forging ahead with deployment, while nearly every other major MSO has taken a more cautious approach. Some even say the digital economic model is broken because new set-tops are wildly expensive, and there are so many analog receivers in existence.
Competitive Nightmares Taking Shape
April 30, 1998 8:00 pm | by CED Staff | CommentsDepending on which technology master you serve, telecommunications competition is either the dream you've always hoped for, or the nightmare that has you sitting bolt upright in the middle of the night. In the two years since telecommunications was overhauled via legislation, true competition has been largely nonexistent.

April 30, 1998 8:00 pm | by Jeffrey Krauss, HDTV Observer and President of Telecommunications and Technology Policy | CommentsLow-power communications transmitters can be operated in the United States without radio licenses, provided that their power is low enough that they will not cause interference.

TCI lures the big fish
April 30, 1998 8:00 pm | by Leslie Ellis, Contributing Editor | CommentsIt's been nine months since the cable industry, with TCI Chairman and CEO John Malone at the helm, penned a letter on CableLabs stationery that will long be remembered as the shiny lure that attracted the trophy fish.

One of the great things about software, compared with hardware, is the ease with which it may be changed and updated. The big downside of software is also the ease with which it can be changed. This ease can make software developers lazy, as they know that they can always fix things later. This is a sharp contrast to chip developers who are fearful of errors, as an ASIC respin is both time consuming … Read More

"Engrossing, thrilling and ultimately satisfying: each story has the weight of a novel." The Economist. This was the day after Mike Tyson bit off Evander Holyfield's ear. You remember that. It was a moment in history, not like Kennedy or the planes flying into the World Trade Center, not up at that level. This was something much lower, more like Ben Johnson, back when his eyes were that thick, yellow color and he tested positive in Seoul after breaking the world-record in the hundred. You might not know exactly where you were standing or exactly what you were doing when you first heard about Tyson or about Ben, but when the news came down, I bet it stuck with you. When Tyson bit off Holyfield's ear, that cut right through the everyday clutter. Two runners race a cargo train through the darkness of a rat-infested tunnel beneath the Detroit River. A drugstore bicycle courier crosses a forbidden threshold in an attempt to save a life and a young swimmer conquers her fear of water only to discover she's caught in far more dangerous currents. An auto-worker who loses his family in a car accident is forced to reconsider his relationship with the internal combustion engine. Alexander MacLeod is a writer of "ferocious intelligence" and "ferocious physicality". Light Lifting, his celebrated first collection, offers us a suite of darkly urban and unflinching elegies that explore the depths of the psyche and channel the subconscious hopes and terrors that motivate us all. These are elemental stories of work and its bonds, of tragedy and tragedy barely averted, but also of beauty, love and fragile understanding.
Remembering childhood stories her grandfather once told her, young physician Natalia becomes convinced that he spent his last days searching for "the deathless man," a vagabond who claimed to be immortal. As Natalia struggles to understand why her grandfather, a deeply rational man would go on such a farfetched journey, she stumbles across a clue that leads her to the extraordinary story of the tiger's wife.

From the intense familial unity felt by a child to the profound alienation he endures as he begins to see the world, this beautiful novel reinvents the coming-of-age story in a way that is sly and punch-in-the-stomach powerful.

We Do Reviews
Every week, the experts here at 148Apps take on the hundreds of apps released weekly and take the time to sort through them, find the good ones, and write about them in depth. Isn't that spectacular? A few lucky ones become Editor's Choice, standing out above the many good apps and games with something just a little bit more to offer. Here are a few excerpted notable reviews from this past Valentine's Day week; for all of them, be sure to hit our Reviews Archive.
Versu is an ambitious first step into what could be an immensely compelling new medium of literature. It is well worth the download if for no other reason than to get in on the ground floor of what could genuinely be something special down the road. –Blake Grundman
At its core, Rock Runners is simply about level completion, but there are many other goals built in to the game to add replay value and challenge. Each level in Rock Runners has three additional goals built into it, with most of them concerning completion time, gem collection proficiency, and the ability to avoid damaging obstacles. –Campbell Bird
Continuing the trend that its predecessor set, Cordy 2 is a rather glorious platformer. While many of its ideas will remind players of great platformers gone by, especially the Sonic the Hedgehog series, none of it really matters when there's so much fun to be had. –Jennifer Allen
Every now and then a game comes along that offers a real breath of fresh air: something truly unique. JOOL is that game. It's a 2D arcade platformer with basic controls, but puts forth a very unique style. Whether starting with the good bird or his evil alter ego, players will need to use both characters to survive the infinite level design in order to earn the highest possible score. –Michael Carattini
…Ease of use is what makes Qwiki stand out so significantly. It's actually fun to use as well as view the creations, much like Instagram. Filtering and basic editing completes the package, making Qwiki a very tempting proposition for those who want to show off a form of photo slideshow to their friends and family. –Jennifer Allen
Released: 2013-02-07 :: Category: Photography
Roar Rampage is loud, full of things to smash, and has a giant dinosaur wearing boxing gloves. With controls that improve on the Flash original and the ability to smash the Eiffel Tower, what's not to love about Roar Rampage? –Carter Dotson
Other 148Apps Network Sites
Partner sites GiggleApps and Android Rundown publish some of the best reviews and news on the 'net about kids apps and Android apps, respectively. Be sure to head over to each site to read them fully. For now, though, check out some of the great content they served up this past week.
Endless Alphabet is a charming and surprisingly sophisticated letters app for iPad that teaches words in a wonderfully unique way for a letters app. From the opening of this application, it is easy to tell that it is something special with the cast of colorful and creative monster characters parading across the screen, playing different instruments in ways that are quite captivating. –Amy Solomon
Released: 2013-01-24 :: Category: Education
The Adventures of Captain Underpants is a cheeky story about two friends who love to pull pranks at school as well as writing comic books, especially The Adventures of Captain Underpants, about a super hero who actually flies around in his underwear. Things become complicated for the boys when they are caught pulling pranks at their school by their principal, who blackmails them until they are able to hypnotize their principal, yet things take a turn for the worse as the principal takes on the persona of Captain Underpants. –Amy Solomon
Released: 2013-01-17 :: Category: Books
Snow Queen by the developers at Timecode is a very nice adaptation of the Hans Christian Andersen story of the same name – a lengthy tale traditionally told over seven stories. I am impressed by how this app also is broken into seven stories to create a thorough version of this classic story – nice to see as many times the Snow Queen is abridged, and oftentimes without the back story of how the magic mirror, which makes all things beautiful look ugly, is produced here by a goblin. It is this mirror, when broken, also negatively affects the people who get imbedded by these shards, making them see and feel as though everything around them is ugly as well. –Amy Solomon
Android Rundown
Friday Free App Rundown – When I was a kid, I couldn't wait to wake up on Saturday mornings to watch cartoons. There was an awesome lineup back then. In this week's Free App Rundown we are going to talk about games based on Saturday morning cartoons. While there are paid games out there like The Dark Knight Rises and The Amazing Spider-Man, the games in this list are free. Let's take a look. –Trevor Dobrygoski
Pokemon TV App Now Available, Gotta Watch 'Em All – The world's favorite way to collect and fight exotic monsters, Pokemon, is still Nintendo-exclusive as far as the actual games go. But with The Pokemon Company International, the company rsponsible for licensing the franchise, being only affiliated with Nintendo, they are free to release some content to other platforms. In this case, this includes episodes of the long-running TV show, which can now be watched in the Pokemon TV App. Selected episodes from each "Region" that comprises each new generation of the game can be watched. The original Red & Blue games are Kanto region, for those wondering. Those are the ones with Misty and Brock. Go be nostalgic, children of the late 90's and early 2000's! –Carter Dotson
Ice Road Truckers is an infinite driving game that pitted ever-increasingly treacherous roads against mental reaction and physical dexterity. My job? Keep the big rig moving. Avoid obstacles. Collect coins. One button on the left or right pulled the truck in either direction, and tapping both buttons at the same time caused a boost of speed that revved the truck up, and was perfect for the ramps that appeared on either side of the world. There were also rock formations and huge trees that did their part to increase difficulty in the game. –Tre Lawrence
Looks like 2013 might be the year of the renegade robot. Zombies and menacing pizza will always be in our hearts, but robots are in. Stop The Robot is a cleverly-imagined tower defense game that pits roughneck kids against robots attempting to breach their backyard lawn fences. I started out at the bottom of the totem pole. There were three levels of difficulty, easy (Iron), medium (Steel) and hard (Titanium). Iron was opened by default, and I started off as Frank, The Slingshot King. Armed with my wooden weapom, I aimed and fired upon oncoming robots that were intent upon destroying the fence I was protecting. It started off easily enough, and, predictably got tougher, with more marching robots in spread-out clusters. –Tre Lawrence
I wasnt really sure what to expect when I downloaded Ant Raid. I thought it might be another bug smasher game. There is a little of that in there, but there is also some other strategies needed to beat the levels. The overall plot of the game is to keep the ant's home save from the other insects. The insects have been infected and are pretty much zombies. Okay, that right there grabbed my attention. –Trevor Dobrygoski

The TORCH screen is a group of blood tests that check for several different infections in a newborn. TORCH stands for toxoplasmosis , rubella , cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex, and HIV, but it can also include other newborn infections.
Sometimes the test is spelled TORCHS, where the extra "S" stands for syphilis.
The health care provider will clean a small area (usually the finger) and stick it with a sharp needle or cutting instrument called a lancet. The blood may be collected in a small glass tube, on a slide, onto a test strip, or into a small container. If there is any bleeding, cotton or a bandage may be applied to the puncture site.
For specific information regarding how you can prepare your child, see infant test or procedure preparation .
While the blood sample is being taken, your child will most likely feel a prick and a brief stinging sensation.
If a woman becomes infected with certain germs during her pregnancy, the baby may also become infected while still in the womb. The baby is more sensitive to harm from infection during the first 3 to 4 months of the pregnancy.
This test is used to screen infants for infections such as toxoplasmosis, cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex, syphilis and others. These infections may lead to birth defects, growth delay, and brain and nervous system problems in the baby.
Normal values mean there is no sign of infection in the newborn.
Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test results.
If high levels of antibodies called immunoglobulins (IgM) against a certain germ are found in the infant, there may be an infection. More tests must be done to confirm a diagnosis.
Blood draws carry a small risk of bleeding, bruising, and infection at the involved site.
The TORCH screen is useful for determining whether there may be an infection. If the result is positive, more testing will be needed to confirm the diagnosis. The mother will also need to be checked.
