Did you know that a normal healthy adult needs to sleep for eight hours in a day? As recommended by medical professionals, sleep is extremely important for an individual's mental and physical well being. Not getting enough sleep can result in a number of disorders and ailments. Did you know that millions of Americans suffer from sleep disorder? This can result in insomnia, sleep apnea and narcolepsy. Although these are just some of the common ones, sleepwalking and restless legs syndrome can also be a result of a sleep disorder. There can be a number of factors that can result in this condition. These include an unhealthy diet, stress and depression.
Sleep disorder is also related to mental diseases such as anxiety and post traumatic stress disorder. Insomnia is quite common in people who suffer from panic attacks and depression. If someone you know or someone close to you suffers from any of the above mentioned disorders, immediate medical assistance in the form of an analysis is necessary. In order to find out the related symptoms, an extensive research on the internet is required. There are a number of informational websites that can help you understand the signs and symptoms. It is further recommended that you gather information from credible and authenticated sites. Furthermore, once you have identified all the related symptoms, get in touch with a qualified medical professional. This will not only assist in early diagnosis, it will also help in its treatment.
Your sexual health can sometimes determine what direction your life and relationships take. To be better informed on how to achieve it, watch our video here.

5 If you're an Oz fan this won't disappointDorixx | 18/05/2013 | See all Dorixx's reviews (1)I love the classic Wizard of Oz.This new take on the film will not disappoint. Not only is it amazing visually, the story and characters have a similar twist to them. I loved this so much I'll put my hands up and admit I went to see it twice at the cinema. Now I can't wait to own a copy.
4 MAGIC MOMENTSHONESTBAZ | 04/06/2013 | See all HONESTBAZ's reviews (299)Top 100 Music Reviewer For a film that could've been a huge mistake,this was surprisingly enjoyable.A self-centred charlatan magician gets sucked up by a tornado and ends up in this fantasticly colourful land,soon approached by a friendly witch,then meeting other great characters and soon finding he is believed to the the great and powerful oz and the man to kill the wicked witch.He soon becomes interested in the task at hand,finding affections he probably didn't realize he had.I really liked the style some parts were done,such as the doll with a broken leg mirroring the girl near the beginning who begged him to fix her legs so she could walk,nicely done. It does get a little confusing for him and us,trying to figure out which witch is which,but it soon makes sense.The final moments also very much mirror the earlier part of the film,skillfully so. So a film with a lot going for it,plenty of magical moments for all the family to enjoy,great colours and characters,good messages and a fine story that leads to the much loved story from years ago.Although i wouldn't quite give it five stars,i can see why some would,as it looks great and entertains.It takes you to another world for a couple of hours,now that's magic!
2 Disappointingawesomecity | 25/05/2013 | See all awesomecity's reviews (987)Far too long for children. Franco didn't do the role justice. Some poor effects in places. Rachel Weiss was poorly cast. Not great or powerful.

NEW WILMINGTON, Pa. - Dr. Timothy Cuff, Westminster College associate professor of history, recently served on two panels at the 37th Annual Meeting of the Social Science History Association (SSHA) in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
Cuff organized, chaired, and served as a discussant on a panel titled "Poverty, Inequality, and Well-Being," that included papers on the shifting health status of former slaves, the effect of climate change on the health of historical populations, and efforts to measure historical income and wealth inequality around the globe.
Cuff also served as a panelist in a book review session which addressed Louis Cain and Donald Paterson's The Children of Eve: Population and Well-Being in History. He presented his evaluation of the text as a classroom tool and described his students' reaction to elements of the text as well.
Cuff, a Westminster graduate who joined the faculty in 2000, earned a master's degree from Bowling Green State University and a master's and Ph.D. from the University of Pittsburgh. He teaches U.S. history courses, World Geography, and Inquiry 111. His research interests focus on the 19th century U.S. and the outcomes of economic development. His book, The Hidden Cost of Economic Development: The Biological Standard of Living in Antebellum Pennsylvania, was published by Ashgate in 2005. His current research, some in collaboration with advanced undergraduate students, addresses anthropometric history as well as the influenza pandemic of 1918.
According to the SSHA website, "SSHA is an interdisciplinary group of scholars that shares interests in social life and theory; historiography, and historical and social-scientific methodologies. SSHA might be best seen as a coalition of distinctive scholarly communities. Our substantive intellectual work ranges from everyday life in the medieval world - and sometimes earlier - to contemporary global politics, but we are united in our historicized approach to understanding human events, explaining social processes, and developing innovative theory."
Contact Cuff at (724) 946-6152 or email for additional information.

It was well over 10 years ago and I was working a trade show booth with a techie colleague. It was quiet and we were bored. We chatted about things that interested us and eventually settled on our common ground: embedded software. He made a reference to "back in the 8 bit days". I questioned this: "We are in the 8 bit days now!". He did not believe me …
It was not that he thought I was deceiving him or that he was stupid – far from it. He has simply led a sheltered life. We worked in a business selling real time operating systems and high end embedded development tools. [The company was later acquired by Mentor Graphics, which is how I came to be here.] The products were targeted almost exclusively at 32-bit processors and that was really the only world he knew, as every customer we met was developing with such devices. Realistically, users of smaller CPUs were unlikely to need an RTOS and even less likely to pay for one. Similarly their development tools were provided by companies who could offer them at the low price that the market would stand.
The reality, at that time, was that an incredible number of number of 8-bit systems were being developed – when just that amount of CPU power was needed for the application in hand. Similarly, 4-bit devices had a place. And 16-bit processors were available to accommodate situations when just a little more horsepower was required. I remember reading then that Intel sold seven times as many 186 devices [a popular 16-bit microcontroller] as Pentiums. And the 8051 family [8 bits worth of horrible architecture] shipped in even larger volumes.
Looking at many multi-processor systems and the need for a diverse range of CPU power levels is apparent. A good example is a car. A modern vehicle has 50-100 processors. The engine management systems and satellite navigation probably both need 32 bits. Braking systems are likely to need 16 bits. Most of the minor systems use 8 bits – things like central locking, security and ultrasonic reversing sensors. A 4-bit processor is quite enough to control electric windows.
My perception is that things have not changed that radically in recent years, but a change is on the way. There is an increasing number of very low cost [and low power] 32-bit devices coming onto the market – most based on ARM processors. They are so cheap and easy to deploy, that they could be used where an 8- or 16-bit device would have been used in the past, even though the 32-bit architecture is gross overkill. What will this do to the software? On the one hand, techniques commonly used for higher-end applications may be employed, like the use of C or C++. Maybe an RTOS could be attractive. But the on-board memory is commonly very limited – a critical factor in keeping down cost and power consumption. This requires some rethinks with regard to software.
I would be very interested to hear from anyone – by comment or email – with experience of using these very low cost 32-bit devices. What are your experiences?

This where the flash should stand...
The Ommegang
30/06/2009This year Montres Breguet joined the festivities associated with the Ommegang, a Brussels tradition that goes back to the 15th century and means "procession" in old Flemish. It is in fact a costumed parade in the streets of the city that ends in the magnificent decor of its Grand-Place.
Its centuries-old paved streets once again salute emperor Charles V and his son Philip, crown prince of Spain, and his sisters, Eléonore, queen of France, and Mary of Austria, queen of Hungary and governess of the Low Countries.
Breguet's guests were offered a dinner in the grand style in the splendid gothic-style premises of the Brussels city hall, after which they were afforded an opportunity to survey the Breguet watch and jewellery collections before enjoying the show on the Grand-Place.

Remember the Wright State Raider that was lurking near my cage yesterday? (See post below for visual.) Yeah, he got dealt with…
Here's hoping my fellow Bulldogs do likewise on Thursday evening (9 p.m. EST) at Hinkle Fieldhouse.
the way, no actual Wright State Raiders were physically harmed in the
making of this film. All harm was inflicted figuratively.
yes, Wright State considers the "Raider" to be a wolf. I don't get it
either. Perhaps the Wright State Mangy Dingos would be more descript.
They actually changed from a red-bearded Viking to a wolf. The wolf is
now known as "Rowdy Raider."
Here's a picture of WSU's current (middle) and former mascots…
see why they switched from the crazy-eyed Viking. That thing is sure to
scare all small children. I believe that to be what a suspect sketch
artist would draw if you said the criminal resembled the off-spring off
a Keebler Elf and one of Willy Wonka's Ump-Lumpas. (Sorry, that's the
best I could come up with this close to bed time.)
somewhere Wilbur, Orville and Ovid are sitting around a table, smoking
pipes, wearing distinguished suits and asking each other who came up
with "Bulldogs" and "Raiders."
Oh well, at least WSU's "guy in a
suit" actually resemlbes their mascot…which is more than we can say
for a certain school in Des Moines, Iowa. (For visual, see post
Enough about the Raiders, let's just settle this on the court Thursday night.
In case you missed it, I was featured in Sports Illustrated.com's photo account from the Bulter/Drake game this past Saturday.
The picture taken by John Biever can be seen here: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/multimedia/photo_gallery/0802/campus.superfans.feb26/content.5.html
Also, mad props to A.J. Graves and Drew Streicher for
being named to the 2008 ESPN The Magazine Academic All-America
University Division Men's Basketball Team, chosen by CoSIDA (College
Sports Information Directors of America). The two Butler
student-athletes were among 15 players chosen to the honor squad, and
Butler was the lone university to have more than one player selected!
work fellas…not only can you challenge opponents in a game of hoops,
but you also can dominate in the occasional standardized test-off.
Clearly old "Dawgs" can learn new tricks!

quote:count me in
quote:Wow, you adopted my Trois Coleurs exception rule. Sweet!
quote:I think the rule here should stand. Those are a good group of four series that should count as one film. They all work as one work.
quote:I think you can since the third was made almost 20 years after the first two. It was a cash grab. Actually, it was a prestige grab, given Coppola's career since 1980. Has any director done more to harm his reputation than Coppola? I mean, we forgive Polanski for being a horrible person, but Coppola just started making bad movies.
quote:You know, I want to make the Godfather folks accept Godfather 1-3. You just can't leave off a film in the trilogy and get the two best ones, that's crazy.
quote:I don't hate GF III the way a lot of folks do, but I'll disagree because it came out 16 years later so it was not made in combo with the other 2 in the same way that LOTR and Kill Bill were basically filmed as 1. Parts of GF I and II over lap and basically overlap and continue the same story, but are split into 2 films for time considerations. The Godfather Saga (parts I and II edited together) predated GF III by many years.
quote:Your hate for Godfather is strong...
quote:I mean, not even TOP 40?
quote:The rules ask that we "PLEASE LIST ALL DATES of the films you include", but the example ballot does not.
quote:ETA: And can someone please post the 100 movies list from last time? I can't find it. Thanks!

2008 Tesorina
2008 Tesorina
The Ultra Premium Crown Jewel of the Rocca Family wine portfolio, the first-ever bottling of Tesorina is a profoundly concentrated, iconic expression of Napa Valley's outstanding 2008 vintage. While the wine expresses the vintage's warm personality and rich, effusive fruit with beautiful balance and proportion, it does so on an unusually grand scale.
The aromas here are ripe and intense, with a deep core of sweet dark raspberries and black currant jam highlighted by a pronounced mineral component. With air, complex notes of dark and milk chocolate, espresso and graphite begin to emerge. On approach, the wine is full and rich, soft and expansive and packed with sumptuous waves of palate-coating sweet fruit. The finish is almost absurdly long and reveals the wine's dense, underlying structure. Rocca's trademark soft, velvety tannins are in rich abundance here, and combine with vibrant natural acidity to ensure 20 to 30 years of beautiful aging pontential.

Cramer's 'Mad Money' Recap: Next Week's Game Plan
Search Jim Cramer's "Mad Money" trading recommendations using our exclusive "Mad Money" Stock Screener.
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Everyone is expecting lousy earnings next week, Jim Cramer told "Mad Money" viewers Friday, and when the bar is set low, even mediocre news can send stocks higher.
That's why Cramer said his game plan will be paying attention to a few key earnings reports.
Cramer said on Monday he'll be watching the German industrial production numbers as well as any news out of China over the weekend. In a "less is more" scenario, Cramer said he wants to see bad news from Germany, which will force them to play ball with the rest of Europe, but good news from China.
Tuesday brings earnings from Alcoa (AA) and Yum Brands (YUM), two stocks very closely levered to the health of the Chinese economy. Cramer said Alcoa will likely be hurt by Chinese aluminum production, but he likes Yum Brands in the low $60s. Then on Wednesday, Costco (COST) will be reporting. Cramer said that owning expensive stocks in this environment is risky, which is why anyone still owning Costco is being greedy. Also on Wednesday, a FedEx (FDX) analyst meeting. Cramer said with the bar set low, any positive numbers could send that stock higher. For Thursday, it's grocery chain Safeway (SWY) that's due to report. Cramer said Safeway remains "a falling knife" and he much prefers Whole Foods (WFM). He was also bullish on trucking company JB Hunt (JBHT), a stock that could send the transports higher as its not exposed to Asia, nor does it ship crops or coal. Finally on Friday, it's Wells Fargo (WFC) and JPMorgan Chase (JPM), two stocks he owns for his charitable trust,Executive Decision
In the "Executive Decision" segment, Cramer sat down with Nolan Watson, president and CEO of Sandstorm Gold (SAND - Get Report), a company that helps finance gold mining operations in return for a percentage of the gold produced at that mine. Watson said that unlike a traditional bank, Sandstorm is 100% equity financed, which means it can take on risk over longer periods of time. He said miners actually prefer to work with Sandstorm versus offering equity themselves, since many mining executives own shares themselves and don't like dilution.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Sinusitis is inflammation of the sinuses. It occurs as the result of an infection from a virus, bacteria, or fungus.
Acute sinusitis; Sinus infection; Sinusitis - acute; Sinusitis - chronic; Rhinosinusitis
The sinuses are air-filled spaces in the skull. They are located behind the forehead, nasal bones, cheeks, and eyes. Healthy sinuses contain no bacteria or other germs. Most of the time, mucus is able to drain out and air is able to flow through the sinuses.
When the sinus openings become blocked or too much mucus builds up, bacteria and other germs can grow more easily.
Sinusitis can occur from one of these conditions:
There are two types of sinusitis:
The following may increase the risk that an adult or child will develop sinusitis:
The symptoms of acute sinusitis in adults very often follow a cold that does not get better or that gets worse after 5 - 7 days. Symptoms include:
Symptoms of chronic sinusitis are the same as those of acute sinusitis. However, the symptoms tend to be milder and last longer than 12 weeks.
Symptoms of sinusitis in children include:
The doctor will examine you or your child for sinusitis by:
The doctor may view the sinuses through a fiberoptic scope (called nasal endoscopy or rhinoscopy) to diagnose sinusitis. This is often done by doctors who specialize in ear, nose, and throat problems (ENTs).
Imaging tests that may be used to decide on treatment are:
Most of the time, regular x-rays of the sinuses do not diagnose sinusitis well.
If you or your child has sinusitis that does not go away or keeps returning, other tests may include:
Try the following steps to reduce congestion in your sinuses:
Be careful with use of over-the-counter spray nasal decongestants. They may help at first, but using them for more than 3 - 5 days can make nasal stuffiness worse.
To help ease sinus pain or pressure:
Most of the time, antibiotics are not needed for acute sinusitis. Most of these infections go away on their own. Even when antibiotics do help, they may only slightly reduce the time it takes for the infection to go away. Antibiotics may be prescribed sooner for:
Acute sinusitis should be treated for 10 - 14 days. Chronic sinusitis should be treated for 3 - 4 weeks. Some people with chronic sinusitis may need special medicines to treat fungal infections.
At some point, your doctor will consider:
Other treatments for sinusitis include:
Surgery to enlarge the sinus opening and drain the sinuses may also be needed. You mayo consider this procedure if:
Most fungal sinus infections need surgery. Surgery to repair a deviated septum or nasal polyps may prevent the condition from returning.
Most sinus infections can be cured with self-care measures and medical treatment. If you are having repeated attacks, you should be checked for causes such as nasal polyps or other problems, such as allergies.
Although very rare, complications may include:
Call your doctor if:
A green or yellow discharge does not mean that you definitely have a sinus infection or need antibiotics.
The best way to prevent sinusitis is to avoid colds and flu or treat problems quickly.
Other tips for preventing sinusitis:

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease in which the body's immune system mistakenly attacks healthy tissue. It can affect the skin, joints, kidneys, brain, and other organs.
Disseminated lupus erythematosus; SLE; Lupus; Lupus erythematosus; Discoid lupus
The underlying cause of autoimmune diseases is not fully known.
SLE is much more common in women than men. It may occur at any age, but appears most often in people between the ages of 10 and 50. African Americans and Asians are affected more often than people from other races.
SLE may also be caused by certain drugs .
Symptoms vary from person to person, and may come and go. Almost everyone with SLE has joint pain and swelling. Some develop arthritis . The joints of the fingers, hands, wrists, and knees are often affected.
Other common symptoms include:
Other symptoms depend on which part of the body is affected:
Some people have only skin symptoms. This is called discoid lupus.
To be diagnosed with lupus, you must have 4 out of 11 common signs of the disease.
Your doctor will do a physical exam and listen to your chest. An abnormal sound called a heart friction rub or pleural friction rub may be heard. A nervous system exam will also be done.
Tests used to diagnose SLE may include:
You may also have other tests to learn more about your condition. Some of these are:
There is no cure for SLE. The goal of treatment is to control symptoms. Severe symptoms that involve the heart, lungs, kidneys, and other organs often need treatment from specialists.
Mild forms of the disease may be treated with:
Treatments for more severe SLE may include:
If you have SLE, it is also important to:
Counseling and support groups may help with the emotional issues involved with the disease.
The outcome for people with SLE has improved in recent years. Many people with SLE have mild symptoms. How well you do depends on how severe the disease is.
The disease tends to be more active:
Many women with SLE can get pregnant and deliver a healthy baby. A good outcome is more likely for women who receive proper treatment and do not have serious heart or kidney problems. However, the presence of SLE antibodies raises the risk of miscarriage.
Some people with SLE have abnormal deposits in the kidney cells. This leads to a condition called lupus nephritis . Patients with this problem may go on to develop kidney failure and need dialysis or a kidney transplant.
SLE can cause damage in many different parts of the body, including:
Call your health care provider if you have symptoms of SLE. Call your health care provider if you have this disease and your symptoms get worse or a new symptom occurs.

"You've fought very well Dearest!

A perfect storm
By Trevor Hayes
The White Sox can slug. Last season they hit 235 home runs, tops in the Majors and 21 ahead of the world champion Phillies. This season, they've hit 10 — tied for ninth at the moment, with the Rangers leading the way with 17 homers in this young season.
But Chicago has a fearsome heart of the order with Carlos Quentin, Jim Thome, Jermaine Dye and then Paul Konerko. And their bats are coming alive. Quentin deposited a pair of balls over the outfield wall at Comerica Park on Monday, and it was the team's first four-homer game of 2009. They had 11 last year.
The story of Monday's Tigers-White Sox game was, of course, two men making history by hitting their 300th career home runs in back-to-back at-bats. Dye and Konerko became the first teammates to reach a century milestone of at least 300 in the same game, let alone doing so in back-to-back fashion.
It was the fifth time in Major League history that two men have reached a century milestone of at least 300 in the same day, and Thome has been involved in two of those events. The others are Mark McGwire (400) and Andres Galarraga (300) on May 8, 1998; Albert Belle (300) and Rafael Palmeiro (300) on July 17, 1998; Juan Gonzalez (400) and Thome (300) on June 5, 2002; and Thome (500) and Todd Helton on Sept. 16, 2007.
Thome, Dye and Koneko have been together since 2006 and are fairly well represented at the Hall of Fame. Dye's jersey from Game 4 of his Most Valuable Player performance during the 2005 World Series is here, as are the jersey Thome wore when he hit his 400th career home-run on June 29, 2004, and his 500th home-run ball. In fact, Thome came to Cooperstown last August and presented the ball to the Hall's chief curator, Ted Spencer.
Something to think about as the Sox home-run machine gets its engines turning is this: With Dye in right field, Konerko at first base and Thome as the designated hitter, the White Sox have 1,143 career home runs in their lineup between just three men. Of course dropping Dye or Konerko for Ken Griffey Jr. at the end of last 2008 considerably ups the total. Both Konerko and Dye ended 2008 with 298 and Thome ended with 541, while Griffey had 611 for an unreal total of 1,450 home runs. That kind of slugging is historic in nature.
An incomplete look at some of the great home-run hitting trios in baseball history turns up very few teams featuring a lineup with that much pop. I was only able to find one team that can overtake the current Sox. In 2006, the Yankees had Alex Rodriguez, Gary Sheffield and Jason Giambi. Those three Bronx Bombers finished the season with a combined 1,269 career homers (Rodriguez at 464, Sheffield at 455 and Giambi at 350). The next season, Sheffield was traded to Detroit, breaking up the unit.
Many teams have come close. Mr. Cub's Lovable Losers fall just short of their Windy City successors. In Hall of Famer Ernie Banks' final year, the North Siders had 1,131 career homers between their three top sluggers. Banks had 512, Hall of Famer Billy Williams had 319 and Ron Santo had 300.
Babe Ruth's final year with the Yankees, 1934, was another homer-happy squad, but even they can't match the Sox mashers despite having three prominent Hall of Famers. With Ruth at 708 and Lou Gehrig at 348, the two sluggers had 1,056. Like many teams however, they fell short of finding a third player. Bill Dickey's 62 give the 1934 Yankees a combined 1,118 career home runs.
The 1971 Giants, featuring two Hall of Famers with a 40-year-old Willie Mays at 646 and Willie McCovey at 370, also had a young Bobby Bonds with 100 career homer runs, combining for a total of 1,116.
Eddie Murray played in Baltimore for many years and came back at the tail end of 1996 with 474 homers at the end of the season and teamed with Cal Ripken Jr. (353) and Palmeiro (233) for 1,060 total home runs.
The '04 Cubs had Slammin' Sammy Sosa with 543, Moises Alou at 278 and Derrek Lee with 162 for a total of 983. That team also featured Aramis Ramirez with 127 at the time.
The hardest part of finding a team with over 1,000 career homers between three players is finding three prolific hitters at that point in their careers. 2009 inductee Jim Rice and Hall of Famers Carl Yastrzemski and Ted Williams all played in Boston and overlapped each other's tenures, but they never played together that late in their careers.
The Milwaukee Braves of the late '50s and '60s were known for their slugging threesome. In 1962, the Braves featured Hall of Famer Eddie Mathews at 399, Hall of Famer and eventual home-run king Hank Aaron at 298 and Joe Adcock with 270 for a 967 total. Four years later, Adcock was gone, but by then Mathews (493) and Aaron (442) had come a long way. Felipe Alou's 148 give the new threesome 935 homers in 1966.
Mickey Mantle ran into the same problem. He played with Joe DiMaggio as a youngster and Yogi Berra for a long period of time. By 1963, Mantle had 419 longballs, Berra had 358 and slugger Roger Maris contributed 214 for a total of 991.
It takes the perfect storm to put 1,143 career home runs into one lineup. Right now, the White Sox have it, and it's fun to watch.

Nah... I made them as the crux of the Chronometal Panic. The hook- the thing that made it interesting. One tangent leads to the rest of the story, the other two simply answer questions that weren't asked in other tangents and show us 'what would happen' if our heroes didn't go along the real path. The ramifications for not doing so almost immediately apparent. The other two stories not only don't lead to the Barasian war, but they also don't lead to any of the other major wars either. (Except the Black War. That happens anyway.) They are stand alones in their own timelines, that if I were to continue with- would simply be for theorycrafting.Havoc751 wrote:The other tangents, the ones that don't lead to the Barasian wars, will you be working on them some more?
That I can't really afford to spoil... Just know it will act like The Barasian War- in that it will come out and be its own story... but very little details will be given out other than that. It is a high point of the story in my opinion. One worth wating for. One that is also MUCH longer than the Barasian war. At least 4X the length.Havoc751 wrote:That other story you talked about. What was it called, Tales of Megaville? I'm very interested in this, and would like to hear more about it.
Yes. In fact, let me quote from my own story back at the Epilogue.Havoc751 wrote:Finaly I thought I read something about the RRB in the first story?(and I hate to be "that guy")But will they be in the story at any point?
This entails that: Yes, they are in the story. They are in the Second War. ONLY the Second War. (The colors match the details of the other matching colors.)Buttercup lands after hearing those words, catching everyone by surprise. "Lynn is absolutely correct, Bubbles." She regains her posture and continues, looking into a blushing Bubbles' eyes. "Even with my Immortality, I barely had enough power to fight anyone in this war. Right before World's End was at full power, I couldn't do anything to the Roudyroughs but hold them back before Blossom came and swept them out. I may have been immortal, but that didn't mean I was better... not at all..."

Delivering light weight, strength and smoothness to your drivetrain. BlackBox racers know - SRAM PowerChain is designed to stand up to the toughest courses and competitors. From the convenient PowerLink connectors that eliminate the need for tools to the GLEITMO lube that protects against dirt and friction, these chains set the standard for durability and reliability.
Just like the the chain from the factory. Great for my new build. shifts great have been using SRAM chains for years after I had a shimano chain break during a race. THe Gold power link is the best.
Just had to replace a 5 year old PC-951. It's been a great chain and went a LOT of miles. Used primarily dry lube (wax type) with cleanings after every few rides. Excellent chain. I've used the 971 and the 991 as well and couldn't tell the difference shifting with this one. Chain was run on a 2011 Sram 990 cassette, Truvativ aluminum front rings with Shimano LX/XT mix.
This is an excellent chain for the price. Who even cares if it last half as long as an expensive chain because you can buy like 5 of these for as much as one of them costs. The PowerLink technology is really foolproof and super easy for trailside repairs. I wouldn't put a Shimano chain on my bike if you gave one to me.
These non-plated SRAM chains are functionally identical to the PC-971 model, but less shiny. Good price here.
I put my bike through hell. This chain has never required attention other than cleaning. That is all I ask of a chain.

The CSF-VDRL test is used to help diagnose neurosyphilis . It looks for substances called antibodies, which are sometimes produced by the body in reaction to the syphilis-causing bacteria.
Venereal disease research laboratory slide test - CSF
A sample of spinal fluid is needed. For information on how this is taken, see: Lumbar puncture (spinal tap)
The CSF-VDRL test is done to diagnose syphilis in the brain or spinal cord. Brain and spinal cord involvement is usually a sign of late-stage syphilis.
Blood screening tests (VDRL and RPR) are better at detecting middle-stage (secondary) syphilis.
A negative result is normal.
However, false-negatives can occur. This means you can have syphilis even if this test is normal. Therefore, a negative test does not always rule out the infection. Other signs and tests may be used to diagnose neurosyphilis.
A positive result is abnormal and is a sign of neurosyphilis.

Prevent pet bed odors from taking over your home. The addition of a proven scent-blocking technology in our popular Deluxe Orthopedic Pad makes it even better than ever, especially for pets with coat odors or occasional urine leakage. This bed's Scent-Lok technology uses activated carbon, loaded with microscopic scent-trapping craters, to minimize pet odors on the bed. Scent-Lok is placed on the foam, inside the bed liner. Remove pad cover and place liner-encased foam pad in the dryer on the lowest setting to freshen and recharge Scent-Lok. The Deluxe Orthopedic Pad's intelligent design puts an end to pet elbows hitting the hard floor before naptime. It cushions every square inch of your pet's body, from nose to tail, with 4" of thick orthopedic foam. Dome-textured, polyfoam core supports tender joints, reduces stress on pressure points like elbows and hips, and springs back to shape the minute he vacates it. Choose all twill cover or twill with hair-grabbing Berber in natural or black. Our hefty 7 oz poly/cotton twill cover resists stains and won't wrinkle. Machine washable, zippered cover features accent piping. Please specify color and style.
Colors: NEW Mocha Windowpane, NEW Mint Windowpane, NEW Gray Hourglass, NEW Black/Tan Zig Zag, Sable Paisley, Mocha, Teal Paisley, Charcoal Bailey's Paw, Taupe Bailey's Paw, or Java Bamboo. Keep a second cover on hand for accidents, for laundry day or just when you want a different look. NOTE: Since the Scent-Lok technology is located on the foam, inside the liner, we would advise you not to use this bed with a waterproof liner, as the liner will block the activated carbon from reaching the outer cover, where most dog odors are found. See all our Dog Beds. How to Measure Your Pet for a Bed: First measure the area covered while your pet is lying down, then add 12". Or view our handy breed size chart here >.

Nike+ Sportwatch GPS Powered by TomTom with Sensor
Don't buy!
Couldn't pick up signal - after 9 months I gave up and threw away!
November 17, 2014
Easy to use
Love the watch- it's a little bulky but still love it.
October 28, 2014
No steps
If the watch monitirs runing it should monitor steps

Best watch ever!
I bought this watch for my first marathon. It works amazingly and I couldn't has asked for a better affordable watch. You can use it without the shoe sync that it comes with. Overall awesome!

Returning the Product
I got this product as a gift for my boyfriend because he loves running. We live in a big city so finding a GPS signal should not of been that hard, but the watch would never connect to one.
September 10, 2014
I could not be happier with my choice. The Sportwatch has everything I was looking for, and more. I did have a small glitch with the GPS. I contacted Nike and was able to speak with a human being almost immediately (amazing)! She was quite helpful and the problem was resolved in five minutes. Excellent product support!
August 28, 2014
Great features
My daughter loves this sportwatch. She researched other models and this was the one she wanted.
August 27, 2014
Love it....you won't be sorry. Very easy to use...

A little disappointing
I purchased this watch so i could log my miles for my High School Running career. After many months with this watch, 10 months to be exact, i found that the seal that keeps the watch water tight was breached. I have never gone in the pool with this watch in fear that it would break. I don't sweat a lot either so I'm not sure how the seal was breached. At first it posed little to no problems, sometimes the screen would fog up and I could barely read what was on the screen. This only happened two or three times. However, more recently, the screen has gone completely blurry from the fog and has stayed like that for hours on end. Additionally, the watch has stopped charging and every time that I have tried to plug it into my computer, the usb isn't recognized. I still have the year warranty, but I am sad that this watch has such bad build quality. Now on to the better part of this watch. The gps feature is awesome. Running with the other guys is easier know because we can keep a constant pace by just looking at the watch and adjusting our speed. Also i like how many runs the watch could hold.
August 16, 2014
Very helpful product
My daughter is training for her Division 1 college soccer team and has used this sportwatch almost daily since we purchased it. It has so many excellent features that she has been able to use to help her with her training. It's portable, handy, excellent at breaking up time intervals for training and laps and such and has become a must have for her daily training.

Mammut has developed a range of technologies to increase the safety and comfort of its shoes. These technologies are applied differently depending on the type of shoe.
Shoes must be protected from water, wet conditions and dirt. Since wet conditions and dirt affect leather's natural properties, such as temperature control and comfort, shoe care is a very important area.
- Use a brush to remove any dirt, or brush the shoe under running water to remove persistent soiling
- Leather cleaning products are not recommended since the soap damages the waterproofing treatment
- After cleaning the shoes, rub in the appropriate wax or silicone-based care products or polish them using a soft brush
- Dry leather needs nutrients in the form of wax (no grease or oil). Apply a very thin layer and then work into the leather
- The application of wax makes nubuk or velours leather appear darker and smoother. Liquid care products maintain the leather's original appearance for longer, but provide fewer nutrients
- The best way to clean the lining (textile, GORE-TEX® and leather) is using lots of cold water and a sponge. The lining retains high quantities of salt from perspiration. In the long term, these can have a damaging effect on textiles and leather lining materials.

The 1961 Inauguration was a mess, according to Bendat, an author and presidential historian. For starters, Lyndon Johnson botched the vice presidential oath; instead of saying "without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion" he said, "without any mental reservation whatever." Whoops. Then as Cardinal Richard Cushing was delivering the invocation, the podium caught fire because of an electrical short in the system. Bendat said a look of concern crossed the faces of Kennedy and out-going President Eisenhower, but the Associated Press reported Kennedy allowed "a flitting smile" after it was clear that the cardinal was out of danger. As if disrupting the sanctity of the invocation were not enough, a poem for the president was disrupted, too. The Inaugural poet, Robert Frost, had written a special poem for that occasion. But the bright, bright sun - reflecting off the snow that had fallen overnight – prevented Frost from being able to read it. Vice President Johnson tried to use his top hat to shade the poem for Frost, but he still couldn't see it. Frost then recited from memory a different poem, called "The Gift Outright."

Head honcho Jeff Scott writes, "It was an amazing year.

Thanks to all that voted, nominated, and made these fantastic apps!"

Kid-friendly GiggleApps featured a review of Fun Clock-Learn to Tell Time. Reviewer Amy Solomon writes, "Few apps actually tackle explaining the true concept of telling time they way this app does. After watching the included video in Fun Clock – Learn to Tell Time, children will be will well on their way to understanding how to read a analogue clock. As a parent, I don't think I could have explained this better myself, also wishing that this video had been around when I was a child."

Finally, over at Android Rundown, Carter Dotson took a closer look at Apple's recent iBooks education initiative and evaluated it for what it could mean for the Android platform. Dotson writes, "It may not have been the sexiest announcement, but Android supporters – manufacturers and users alike – should not underestimate Apple's education gambit. Their big push into education with iBooks 2 being optimized for textbooks (both the reading and selling thereof) and iTunes U offering deeper integration with college courses could be the necessary roots they have to lay down for long-term success at the expense of Android."
