3/& get ready to see a hinata power up
this is the truth and it is going to happen in the next chapter. the entire reason madara use obito is because of the rinne tensei. but obito knew that he can control madara as long as he had the rinnegan. maybe he's not that bad of a bad guy after all.
I cried T^T
Whoa, definitely didn't see this coming. RIP Neji, you will be missed Really felt bad for Hinata too, seeing her cry like that. I was hoping we would get one more transformation out of the Juubi,can't wait to see his next form. I thoroughly enjoyed Obito telling Madara off, proves he isn't Madara's puppet after all. All in all, 5/5 awesome chapter.
wait... is everyone giving up on harping on the fact that Obito is this destructive and this vengeful over a girl he was interested in. Nagato/Pain and Naruto have gone through much worse than his situation. Also... are we giving Obito a pass on his ridiculous powerup b/c he's fused with Hashirama's cells?
good chapter. mess up how when neji finally some screen time he get kill off
oooh why why why Neji
Kiba should have died first, then Neji. Choza will be dead soon too. Now where the ef are the Kages?
oh man..really suprised with neji's death.He's one of my favorite character and now he died because protecting naruto and hinata.He did it well,so at least he died as a hero :')
I guess in the next chapter lee or naruto would be rampage

The leaf has lost many of its own. Dont be surprised if Choji's dad dies next. Two major Hyuugas was too many so Hinata will surpass Neji and marry Naruto.
Oh and why the f*^& is Kiba still alive but Neji is dead?
Seconded...............Why the #&^@ is Kiba still Alive??????? :nexus:
finally naruhina might happen
why every one want people to die? i hate that i am still not over neji and hq
i think that naruto will go all out full sage of the six paths mode and will seal the jubbi inside himself like he did when he battled the nine tails then he will mostlikely faceoff against the now pissed off madara hell bent on nuking the world with meteors and obito will have a change of heart when madara blabs something about how and why rin died.

I dont think Sasuke is coming. I believe it is probably one of those eight birds that Neji always see when he was young.
i think in the end naruto will find away to revived everybody that's been dead so far including tsunade
Soo... Konoha 11 is finally crumbling. Well, it was getting ridiculous they survived like everything, but still...
kinda surprising chapter.
For once I would like to see someone die as result of a ninjutsu technique that doesnt require they get impaled like Tsunade or Neji. Can somebody get hit with a lightning blast or something geez.
WTF! Kishi!
Whose next!?!
I can't believe I'm saying this... but where's Sasuke!?!??
i feel bad that i liked kakasaku they look cute togather the way kakashi carry sakura is not like a teacher he look like her boyfriend or something
Oh-no! Not Neji, I liked him and he was really a genius. Well I just Naruto is going to end up with Hinata because Kishimoto had the perfect opportunity to kill hinata while she was protecting Naruto, but I guess not. Anyways good chapter.
Man I really liked Neji, its not his time.... I know he'd die protecting Hina but not now, not this soon..... However my heart was pounding until I saw the 16th page.... I almost thought Hina is gonna die.... Then I'd be pissed like hell.... Anyway nice chapter 4/5

Your doctor took a biopsy from your esophagus to know that you have cancer. Your doctor may request more tests to learn more about your specific type of cancer and its location. This information helps you and your doctor decide on the treatment that is likely to be most effective. These tests can also help your doctor learn if cancer has spread beyond the esophagus. CT scan and endoscopic ultrasound are the two most common tests.
Your doctor may request other tests as well. This depends on your symptoms and your treatment plan. In addition to the tests described here, other tests may include bone or brain scans and heart and lung tests.
You may have a CT scan. This test helps show if the cancer has spread to other parts of the body, such as the lymph nodes, liver, lungs, or adrenal glands.
During a CT scan, you lie still on a table as it gradually slides through the center of the CT scanner. Then the scanner directs beams of X-rays at your neck, chest, and abdomen. You may be asked to hold your breath one or more times during the scan. In some cases, you may be asked to drink a contrast dye before the scan. And you may be asked not to eat anything in the time between drinking the contrast dye and the scan. The contrast dye will gradually pass through your system and exit through your bowel movements. A computer puts these X-rays together to create detailed pictures.
Your doctor uses this test to measure the size of a tumor and how far it has grown into nearby structures. It can also show the lymph nodes near the esophagus to see if cancer has spread to them. This helps your doctor decide on the best treatment for you. The ultrasound is usually done during an esophagoscopy.
For this test, the doctor sprays your throat with a local anesthetic to numb the area. This helps reduce discomfort and gagging. Your doctor may also give you medication to reduce pain and a sedative to help you relax. Then the doctor inserts a thin, lighted tube called an endoscope through your nose or mouth and down into your esophagus. The endoscope bounces sound waves against the esophagus and nearby areas. The echo from the sound waves creates an image of the esophagus. This image is called a sonogram. After the test, you may need to remain at the testing area for a few hours until the sedative wears off.
You may have an MRI to create even more detailed pictures of your esophagus and nearby blood vessels. An MRI can help show whether the cancer has spread. MRI makes pictures using a huge magnet linked to a computer. For an MRI, you lie still on a table as it passes through a tube-like scanner. The scanner directs a continuous beam of magnetic waves to your neck, chest, and abdomen. A computer uses the data from the magnet waves to create a detailed picture of that area of your body. Each set of images may take up to 15 minutes. The entire scan may take an hour or more. MRI is painless. Ask for earplugs if they aren't offered, since there is a loud thumping noise during the scan. If you're claustrophobic, you may be given a sedative before having this test.
A bronchoscopy exam can help show whether the cancer has spread to your airways. First, you may receive medication to help you relax. Then the doctor places a thin, lighted scope, called a bronchoscope, through your nose or mouth down through your airway (trachea) and into your lungs. Your doctor views images from the scope on a video monitor. If your doctor notices abnormal tissue, he or she can take a biopsy by inserting a tiny tool to remove a bit of the tissue. The doctor sends the sample to a pathologist, who can check the sample for cancer.
This is a surgical procedure that allows your doctor to see if cancer has spread to areas in your chest. You will be given general anesthesia so that you feel no pain and will not be awake. Your doctor makes a small incision between two of your ribs. The doctor inserts a thin, lighted tube called a thoracoscope into your chest. The thoracoscope sends images of your chest that your doctor can view on a video monitor. The doctor may also place a small tool through the cut to take a biopsy, small samples of tissues from the esophagus, lungs, or lymph nodes. Your doctor sends the tissue samples to a pathologist, who can view them to determine whether they contain cancer cells. Your doctor will explain what to expect after the surgery and how long you will remain in the hospital.
This is a surgical procedure that allows your doctor to see if cancer has spread to areas in your abdomen. A biopsy may also be done during laparoscopy. You will be given general anesthesia so that you feel no pain and will not be awake. During the procedure, the doctor makes one or more small cuts in the skin over your abdomen. Then, the doctor inserts small instruments into your abdomen. The doctor inserts a scope and lighted tube called a laparoscope to view the abdominal area. Your doctor may use another instrument to remove any abnormal tissue for testing. Your doctor will explain what to expect after the surgery and how long you will remain in the hospital.
A PET scan uses a radioactive glucose (sugar) dye to highlight cancer cells and create pictures. The test is done much like a CT scan. First, the doctor or nurse injects a small amount of radioactive dye into your vein. Then a scanner is moved around your body and takes many pictures of your neck, chest, and abdomen. A computer puts these pictures together to show exactly where the cancer cells are located. Cancer cells show up brighter in the picture because these cells take up more of the dye than normal cells. Researchers are still testing PET scanning in clinical trials to see how well it helps evaluate esophageal cancer.

Ornithological tourism project kicks off with meeting in Barcelona
By SEO.BirdLife, Sat, 28/01/2012 - 11:34
A two-year project promoting responsible and sustainable birdwatching tourism for birds and their habitats in the Mediterranean Basin has begun with a meeting of four BirdLife Partners in Barcelona. The project will provide training for hoteliers, travel companies, transport professionals and guides to help them meet the needs of birdwatching tourists. Much of the training materials will be available online in several languages. The project is lead and coordinated by SEO/BirdLife Spain and involves SPEA (BirdLife in Portugal), BirdLife Cyprus and HOS (Hellenic Ornithological Society), with input also from the BirdLife International Secretariat. "This new work builds on our successful Iberaves project which focused on Spain and Portugal," said Cristina Sanchez, the Ornithological Tourism Project Leader and Director of SEO/BirdLife Catalunya. "Our belief is that birdwatching tourism is an ideal way of bringing sustainable development to Natura 2000 areas and Biosphere Reserves, maximising the benefits to local people and biodiversity, while minimising the negative impacts that tourism sometimes provides." The project is supported by the Leonardo da Vinci Agency, from the European Lifelong Learning Programme.

Dear sir, First of all, i represent KEEP (KATHMANDU ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION PROJECT) Nepal, establishment in 1992, and working as one of the leading tourism NGOs in Nepal. Precisely, it is good to see the birdlife working in the tourism sector where Nepal is a potential location for birdwatchers. Therefore, KEEP is intended to work on building the "Bird Watching" experts among the tourism professionals of Nepal. Also, the capacity building of KEEP is one of the major program which runs every year and KEEP has been receiving participants which we have taken as our success. If Birdlife Intl support this program, it will make a tremendous difference in the tourism sector of Nepal. So, i look forward to your generous support and look forward to discuss more. Thank you

If our expertise could be of some interes for you in Nepal, we´ll be glad to share it with you and your organization. Keep in contact Ramón Martí Acting Head of International Unit SEO/BirdLife

I do enjoy the manner in which you have framed this specific concern and it really does give me some fodder for consideration. Nonetheless, coming from what I have seen, I just simply hope when the feedback pack on that people today continue to be on issue and in no way get started on a tirade of some other news du jour. Still, thank you for this outstanding point and even though I do not really concur with it in totality, I value your point of view.

Ex. Ord. No. 13317. Volunteers for Prosperity
Ex. Ord. No. 13317, Sept. 25, 2003, 68 F.R. 56515, as amended by Ex. Ord. No. 13418, Dec. 14, 2006, 71 F.R. 75647, provided:
By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, and in order to encourage volunteer service by highly skilled Americans to support major initiatives by the United States for promoting health and prosperity around the world, it is hereby ordered as follows:
Section 1. (a) Policy. A part of USA Freedom Corps, "Volunteers for Prosperity" is a call to service to support major U.S. initiatives that promote health and prosperity around the world. Deploying highly skilled volunteers abroad is an efficient way to use our resources consistent with the objectives of the United States Government's global prosperity agenda. United States volunteers will help to achieve the objectives of the global prosperity agenda, including providing clean water to the poor, promoting democratic governance, developing economic freedom, promoting free and open markets, stemming the spread of HIV/AIDS and controlling malaria.
The investment of Federal resources to enable U.S. volunteers to work with nongovernmental and voluntary service organizations overseas is a preferred use of our resources and also will help leverage private sector resources. United States citizens who are skilled professionals and who volunteer, when matched with organizations working on specific U.S. prosperity initiatives overseas, can provide invaluable support for these initiatives and will supplement and complement the traditions and accomplishments of the Peace Corps.
United States prosperity initiatives that can benefit from volunteer service include, but are not limited to, the Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, the Digital Freedom Initiative, the Water for the Poor Initiative, the Trade for African Development and Enterprise Initiative, the Middle East Partnership Initiative, and the President's Malaria Initiative.
Volunteer service in support of other initiatives, consistent with U.S. foreign policy, shall be considered as well.
(b) Applicability. The following agencies are subject to the requirements of this order: the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), the Department of State, the Department of Commerce, the Department of Health and Human Services, and such other Federal agencies as the President may designate in the future.
Sec. 2. Establishment. (a) Agencies subject to this order shall each establish within their respective organizations an Office for Volunteers for Prosperity (Office) or, as appropriate, an operating unit within an office.
(b) Each agency subject to this order shall provide its Office or unit with appropriate staff, administrative support, and resources to meet its responsibilities under this order.
(c) Each of these Offices or units shall begin operations no later than 30 days from the date of this order.
(d) Agencies subject to this order shall consider, in evaluating grant applications for assistance activities to be implemented abroad, the applicant's use of highly skilled U.S. volunteers to support U.S. prosperity objectives and initiatives.
Sec. 3. Purpose. To the extent permitted by law, the purpose of the Offices will be to promote, expand, and enhance well-defined volunteer service opportunities for highly skilled U.S. professionals who wish to work with nongovernmental and voluntary service organizations around the world in support of major U.S. prosperity initiatives as identified in section 1 of this order. Such promotion, expansion, and enhancement would include actively participating in the design and selection processes for grants within their agencies, tracking the use of U.S. private volunteer organizations by their agencies, and coordinating with White House Offices including the USA Freedom Corps, the Office of National AIDS Policy, and the Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives, as appropriate.
Sec. 4. Funding. Agencies subject to this order are hereby directed to use their best efforts to use funds available for the U.S. prosperity initiatives listed in section 1 of this order to provide appropriate support to organizations that use highly skilled U.S. volunteers to accomplish the objectives identified in those initiatives.
Sec. 5. Coordination. The USAID shall serve as the inter-agency coordinator for the Volunteers for Prosperity initiative. In that capacity, the USAID shall coordinate the activities that fall within the scope of the initiative and report on the progress of the initiative to the USA Freedom Corps Office, within the White House Office. The reports shall be submitted within 180 days after the date of this order and annually thereafter. The USA Freedom Corps Council shall encourage consistency in policies and practices within the agencies subject to this order, as appropriate, for purposes related to the Volunteers for Prosperity initiative.
Sec. 6. Administration. The actions directed by this order shall be carried out subject to the availability of appropriations, to the extent permitted by law, and consistent with the agencies' missions.
Sec. 7. Judicial Review. This order is intended only to improve the internal management of the executive branch of the Federal Government, and it is not intended to, and does not, create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity, against the United States, its departments, agencies, or other entities, its officers or employees, or any other person.George W. Bush.

New sounds: music reviews
"Spring and Fall"
Paul Kelly
Gawd Aggie Records
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- The release of any Paul Kelly record is cause for something of a celebration (even a quiet, personal one), but "Spring and Fall" marks the Aussie singer/songwriter's first collection of new material in five years. If you're a newcomer to Kelly's oeuvre, a little background is in order: Kelly is perhaps Australia's best-loved artist, and he's done it all -- from full band work with The Messengers and electric and acoustic solo releases to writing a book, scoring films and producing and championing other compatriots. Most of all, it's the joyously high quality of everything he puts his name on that makes Kelly an international treasure.
From the opening pair of songs, "New Found Year" and "When a Woman Loves a Man," the music is spacious and beautiful. "Something New" is an honest and loving (no kidding) take on "stepping out." "Time and Tide" offers life lessons that are worth noting, and "I'm on Your Side" is a Dylan-quality love song. In addition to his songwriting, Kelly makes some of the best-sounding records you'll ever hear.
Finally, a large tip 'o the hat to Dan Kelly who, on guitar, matches his uncle's impeccable taste. (Check out "Cold as Canada.")
The Jigsaw Seen
Vibro-Phonic Recordings
Since the late '80s, Los Angeles's The Jigsaw Seen have been a staple of the indie pop/rock scene, recording numerous singles and EPs as well as contributing to tribute CDs for The Hollies, The Left Banke, The Bee Gees and Henry Mancini (including a much-played cover of "Baby Elephant Walk").
The follow-up to 2011's "Winterland," "Gifted" has a bit of holiday (or anti-holiday) theme with songs like "Christmas Ain't For Christians (Anymore)," "Myth of the Season" and "Pretend it's Christmas." But just as enjoyable as those easy-pop numbers are the instrumental "Couples Skate," which recalls -- with just enough kitsch and embellishment -- the music you might have heard in the '60s at an outdoor skating rink and the hypnotic drone of "Rise of the Snowflake Children." The acoustic guitar-based "Hag of the Barren Trees" brings to mind Traffic's modal "John Barleycorn" days.
The band gets extra credit for spiffy holiday packaging -- and recruiting Joe Berardi to play hurdy gurdy.
"Ultimate Creedence Clearwater Revival: Greatest Hits & All-Time Classics"
Creedence Clearwater Revival
Fantasy Records
As I get older, I take a bit of solace in the adage that "things get better with age." As music evolves (or devolves, depending on your opinion), the beautiful, gritty rock 'n' roll simplicity of Creedence Clearwater Revival's music has never sounded better.
It is, to borrow a cliche, the perfect storm: John Fogerty drives the truck with incredible songs, deceptively simple sounding guitar work and a voice that, for pure urgency, has never been equaled. Brother Tom's rhythm playing is as Zen as it gets while the rhythm section of Stu Cook and Doug Clifford never stops "chooglin'."
Oh, and the harmonies. Listen to their version of "Cotton Fields." Now that's Americana. You want hoodoo? Look no further than "Run Through the Jungle." And one could certainly make the case that CCR covered blues tunes as well as any British band (and yes, that includes the Stones). That these guys were from the Bay Area is still confounding.
Glancing through the 40-studio tracks, you'll be amazed at how many CCR songs charted in the Top 100 (and perhaps that the lead cut, "Proud Mary," only made it as far as No. 2). The icing on this three-disc set is disc 3, which compiles live tracks recorded in 1970 and 1971. They are "electric" in ways that live cuts rarely are these days. The closer, "Keep on Chooglin,'" is nine minutes and 12 seconds of what makes rock 'n' roll great.

Hello, my name is Rosario, I' m Uruguay citizen, my lenguage is spanish I' a lot of dificulties for undestan you and you understand me. So I go to write un my lenguage:
Hola, me llamo Rosario, y soy Uruguaya. Uruguay es un pequeño paìs, al sur de sudamerica. Mi lengua es el español y temo que me sea dificil comunicarme con ustedes aunque quisiera poder integrarme al grupo.
El programa que uso hace años es el Pain shop pro en sus diversas versiones hasta la versión nueve, que es la que más uso...
He confeccionado scraps, a partir de lo que he podido ver en la net y de lo que conozco del manejo de dicho programa.
Los scraps que he hecho son para mi uso personal y para otras chicas del foro de taggers de psp al que frecuento...
Me encanta lo que he descuierto con el scrapooking para hacer mis tags...
No sé qué más decirles...
Un gusto estar acá y saludos a todas.
Hola Rosario,
Yo comprendo un poco espanol. Real basic lol. Bienvenido a GDS y optimistamente otra persona podrá ayudarle mejor que puedo.

I have a kind of newbie question, I hope you experienced ladies can give me some advice. I've been doing digital scrapping for about 6 months, but just got DSL last week... well, as my daughter said, "If you give a mom a modem..." LOL! So you can imagine what I've been doing the past week LOL! Now moving right along --- golly, my new-last-year-computer with 80GB Hard Drive is suddenly amazing almost full I've been backing up my files religiously to DVDs (yes, and checking the dvds to be sure the files are really there!) -- that's fine for backup, but can't see scrapping from a stack of DVDs & figure its time to get an external Hard Drive to move my kits & photos to. Can anyone give me any recommendations here? I saw one on Amazon.com by Iomega, 500GB, abt. $115. Is that a good price? A good drive? Anything else I need to know????
Larger Hard Drive
You could go with the external hard drive or keep backing up your files....I installed a bigger hard drive and then reinstalled the files I wanted. I don't like working with CD's and then have to still reinstall to extract the files. I'm not to great yet the digital scrapbooking but I'm trying too. I have SOOOOO many stickers, inks, stamps, supplies, etc. that I need to use them since I have so much invested in them. My supply is so large I won't run out for a while. Want to do one book just for digital while still working on the traditional scrapbooking......

Install a bigger hard drive??? In my computer???? Like instead of the one I already have there???? (OK who can tell I'm clueless here? LOL!!!) Then you have to reinstall the gazillion programs & files you already had there, no? Isn't that kind of like gutting the whole house & renovating when all you really want is one more big closet added on???? Can you explain further?
Is there a downside to moving scrapbooking files to an external hard drive? I really know *nothing* about this -- except that I've got less than 5gb of space left on my C drive, so I've got to do *something*! I already have my files backed up on DVDs but can't imagine scrapping from there --- switching back & forth among a stack of DVDs looking for *that* paper.. and then again for *that* frame... and again for *that other* frame... etc.....
Anyway, the advice I then got was, unless you need your extra hard drive to be moveable (ie between a laptop/desktop etc which it doesn't sound as though you need), then an extra internal hard drive is better as it is more reliable and they are less likely to fail.
So, that is what I have - my original internal hard drive has all of my programmes on it, and the new one has all of my files. So, you don't need to reinstall anything at all.

As for the external ones crashing -- but didn't you have those files backed up onto CDs or DVDs? I know everyone talks about the high cost of data retrieval... so I'm guessing I'm missing something here & its something more involved than copying over from a stack of DVDs???
(Our first computer had a hard drive of all of 2MB -- yes, those are "m"s & not "g"s that was about 15yrs ago)
As far as having my stuff backed up, I had most of it backed up, but not the most recent photos which were of my dd's Christmas play - my routine was to back up at the end of the month, but that meant that everything during that month was lost :(
Also, when they do the data retrieval, they have to scan to retrieve EVERYTHING - I couldn't say "I only want you to scan for my Christmas play photos and not anything else" - and I had a 250 GB external hard drive, so they had to scan all of it. This may be different for other types of faults, but it was the case for me!!
Now, I have my 2 internal hard drives which have 1 copy of everything on, my external hard drive (which they managed to fix!) with another copy of everything which I back up to at the end of every day, and another 2 copies on Cds.

More life advice – What to do when your life feels planned for you.Get to know Ori, good deeds, Information, Inspiration, opinion, rant, Tutorials 3 Comments »
The last time someone reached out for tips on life, and I shared it, the personal thank-you messages that I got were overwhelming. The other day I got a pretty heavy letter from Dubai. I am sharing the letter, and my response, in hopes that it will help others out. Feel free to share this post.
The Letter:
Hello… I hope very much that you can read this, as at the moment I'm in a bit of a pathetic dilemma. I would firstly like to admit that I am not a devoted fan to your blog, so I understand if you want to allocate your time answering somebody who is. But from what I have seen, you seem to be living life with the care-free attitude that I so desperately need right now. Maybe if the good samaritan within you is glowing and time allows, you can help me…

Superstorm Sandy has a long reach, with flight cancelations stranding air travelers around the globe.
The flight-tracking service FlightAware says more than 6,000 flights were canceled today, bringing the total to more than 15,000 canceled across the Northeast over two days. And more than 500 flights scheduled for tomorrow have also been canceled. The number surpasses the winter storm of early 2011 when 14,000 flights to be scrapped over four days.
New York is the nation's busiest airspace with about one-quarter of all U.S. flights going through daily. But the three big New York airports remain closed for a second day.
Flights have been canceled across Europe and Asia and travelers overseas could wait days to get back to the East Coast of the U.S. An official with a trade group for airports worldwide says even if storm damage is minor, it could be a week before operations are normal at major East Coast airports.
Meanwhile in Colorado, 110 flights at Denver International Airport were cancelled today. In Colorado Springs, two flights were affected by the storm.

Sustainable Utilization of Renewable Energy

Recent news and developments
- March 2013: John Amayo, with SURE, reports that the Ministry of Agriculture in Kenya recently held a farmers field day, providing an event for local farmers to come and see new ideas. SURE participated, and were able to demonstrate solar cooking using the CooKit, a parabolic solar cooker, and a Pulsee Solar Cooker. The farmers were pleased with the meat stew prepared in the box cooker, the roasted meat on the parabolic, and water pasteurization with the Pulsee. We also used the heat retention basket on this particularly windy day. It was rewarding to be able to show how the water available was not safe for drinking, and how solar water pasteurization can make it safe.
- February 2013: Kisumu County receives water pasteurization information - Former SCI Kenya staffer John Amayo runs Sustainable Utilization of Renewable Energy (SURE) in the Kadibo division of Kisumu County. With the help of Solar Cookers International and Bob Metcalf's portable microbiology lab, SURE has been able to: test local water sources and has distributed thirty safe water packages to the vulnerable in the community. The safe water packages which SURE distributes, like the ones received by FOTO beneficiaries, are accompanied by programs to educate the community on hand washing, food safety, cleanliness around the home, and solar pasteurizing or chemically treating all drinking water. SURE also has plans to harness wind power for lighting and promote the use bio-fuels like biogas for lighting and cooking.

Comments On Jan 02, 2016:These googles ventilate very well lots of air flowing in. The bad part is when it gets cold your face freezes. About (-5) Celsius if you have to ride a trail to the mountain your face will be frozen when you get there. But once you starting riding mountain terrain they are fine for that.

Comments On Dec 08, 2013:these work great for reducing fogging and fit and feel great. But the foam has channels molded in to the foam at the nose so they move a lot of air! but if it is a cold day, you then have a very cold face. I live on the Canadian prairies where temps reach -40'C so these goggles end up staying at home most days.

From Edmunds.com
Like it or not, high gas prices are here to stay. Naturally, this uncomfortable reality has begun shaping our vehicle purchases. Mighty gas-chugging SUVs aren't the runaway sales titans they once were. In this revised landscape, the new heroes are perfectly ordinary hybrids and four-cylinder subcompacts, revered not for their looks or quickness, but rather, their frugality. If you're in the market for one of these models, you're in luck. We've put together a list of the 10 most fuel-efficient sedans currently sold in the U.S.
We arrived at our rankings using the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) miles-per-gallon ratings for city and highway travel. More specifically, we utilized the EPA's combined fuel economy formula: 55 percent of city mpg rating plus 45 percent of highway mpg rating. The rating for each vehicle below is expressed in mpg as a city/highway ratio. All ratings apply to base models equipped with a manual transmission, except where indicated otherwise with an asterisk.
Each model was allowed only one appearance on the list. The exception to this rule is the Honda Civic, which appears twice as a result of being available in both gas-electric hybrid and regular gasoline versions.

Dear Blister,
Me again, arsehole. You weren't satisfied with ruining my time in the Tely 10 and making me limp around for weeks during the best summer since double daylight savings time in 1988.
No, no, no. You had to push it a lot further and TAKE MY SMALL TOENAIL as well as the skin off the top, bottom and sides of the same toe.
It all peeled off in one freakin' piece, like I had cut the small finger off one of those rubber gloves used by better proctologists everywhere.
Hmmm, speaking of "those" doctors, I'd like to stick something up your ... Oh yeah, I did. Remember that sterilized needle? Hurt, didn't it? Is that why you decided to take my toe top? You wanted revenge? Your pound of flesh?
Well, selfish blister, your little plan didn't work. Losing the toenail and the surrounding skin didn't hurt a bit (and I wouldn't give you the satisfaction of admitting it if it did.)
Having my toe moulting like a snake's skin red-lined on the grossness scale, though, especially as I was walking down the Dollar Store aisle in sandals and discovered it looked like MY SMALL TOE WAS HANGING OFF!
That was a pretty toe-matic sight, but at least it gave me an understanding why some guys wear socks in their sandals.
This tale of toe and woe was also difficult to explain to my two-year-old, who offers to kiss any object, including his cars and spiders in the garden, if there is any reference to it feeling pain.
After I convinced him to stop trying to kiss my toe to make it feel better, he proceeded to stamp on it over and over. Loved that, didn't you, Twisted Blister?
Well at least you're gone now. You rolled off with the skin and toenail. I'd like to say it's been nice, but it's been painful and inconvenient over all, about as enjoyable as being chained to a chair, blindfolded and forced to listen to "Call me maybe" endlessly for 48 days straight.
Bye, Blister. You won't be back, I'll take steps to make sure. As a wise person once said, "Knowledge is being aware that fire can burn; wisdom is remembering the blister."
Steve Bartlett says it's time to start running again before a blister starts forming on his duff. Reach him at firstname.lastname@example.com or follow his tweets at @SteveBartlett_ He plans on drawing for the winner of the Mount Pearl Curl Contest Sept. 5.

Hello Mr. Melih. Is it true that the company plans to open Comodo representative office in Russia?
Thank you guys, your words mean the world to us!thank youMelih
A little bit of exaggeration here....just kidding
Hi Melih!Sorry for my English, I'm not very good at them.I saw that may soon open a representative office in Russia. If this is true, then maybe you need our help. We have already translated into Russian some of your blogs. Many people have expressed their gratitude for this. Just now we are engaged in translation of the FAQ. Do you need our translations, if representative office will be opened in Russia?P.S. Besides the participation in the forum we have created a small page of Comodo in vkontakte.ru. Later, we began working with one of the major antivirus sites (Comss.ru), which is why the number of downloads CIS has grown several times.We really like Comodo products and your ideology, and therefore we are interested in further promotion of Comodo in Russia.Thank you! =)
Hi Melih, an office in germany would be great too my experiences says that more and more users in germany trust the products of Comodo. So, maybe an german office, with an german live Support (german GeekBuddy) would be great for the future. Here are 80 Million people and many companies who need your software and your support! Is something in planning for that? best regards and keep up your great work!

James Coleman began his career with Walt Disney Studios in 1969 at the studio's mailroom. His big break came after he entered a painting in the studio art show. Disney artists viewing his work, saw his potential and realized he had untapped ability and encouraged him to go into animation background painting. After his first film, "The Rescuers", he was promoted to Background Department Supervisor, a position he held for nearly seventeen years. While at Disney, James styled and worked on twelve films and over thirty short subjects. In 1991, after twenty-two years with Disney, James left to pursue a new career. He was ready to devote all of his time and talent to the love of his life, fine art. He works in oil, watercolor, gouache and pastel. His work is impressionistic, luminous, inviting and unique. Coleman's art is represented by some of the most prominent and respected galleries in North America, the Orient and the Hawaiian Islands.

LANSING, Mich. (AP) -- Secretary of State Ruth Johnson and Attorney General Bill Schuette want clerks in two dozen Michigan communities to extend the counting deadline for absentee ballots sent to residents overseas and in the military.
Johnson said Friday that the clerks reported they did not send out 38 ballots in the required 45 days before the Nov. 6 election.
She and Schuette say they will file a lawsuit to require the clerks to count the ballots from voters who applied by the Sept. 22 deadline set by Michigan election law.
Johnson's office says Bureau of Elections staff sent multiple reminders to all 1,517 local clerks about their responsibility to send out the ballots by the deadline. More than 8,700 ballots were requested before the deadline.

Together We Are #GoingClean
Clean energy is already powering our homes and our economy, and investment in solar and wind is driving a new era of true American prosperity. Iowa now gets 25% of it's energy from wind. California will get at least a third of its electricity from renewables by the end of the decade. And nationwide, solar and wind now generate enough energy to power nearly 20 million American homes. The price of clean energy has dropped so much that in many places it's already cheaper than coal.
But our work is far from done. We have a vision of a world powered by clean energy, where dirty and dangerous fossil fuels are a thing of the past and everyone can enjoy cleaner air and water thanks to renewable energy resources. Today, the Sierra Club is going all-in on clean energy. We are bringing our passion to create a clean energy revolution where all people have access to sustainable energy, including local solar, energy storage, and sustainably sited large-sale renewable energy projects. Join us.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- A Tennessee frontcourt that already relies on one of the nation's top newcomers now has even more of a freshman flavor.
Isabelle Harrison is on crutches with an injured left knee that has prevented her from practicing the last two days. Cierra Burdick just had the cast removed after missing eight games with a broken right hand and has been targeted for an early February return.
Their injuries could force the ninth-ranked Lady Vols (16-4, 7-0 SEC) to rely entirely on freshmen Bashaara Graves, Jasmine Jones and Nia Moore to handle the post duties in the short term.

Iowa Beef Center Heifer Series Addresses Challenges of Rebuilding Beef Cow Herd
AMES, Iowa – One of the biggest challenges facing cattlemen today is maintaining young cows in their herd long term. The Iowa Beef Center, in partnership with the Iowa Cattleman's Association, is offering a program series focusing specifically on management practices to keep young cows in the herd to improve longterm profitability.
The Heifer Development 2: Maintaining Your Investment series of programs is a follow-up to the 2012 series on yearling heifers, Heifer Development – Rebuilding our Future. The goal of the 2014 series is to pick up where the 2012 series left off, and looks at the nutrition, health, calving and reproductive management of bred heifers through their second breeding season.
Denise Schwab, ISU Extension and Outreach beef specialist, said there are a couple of reasons for increased numbers of heifers in cow herds and producer interest in better management of these animals. "Throughout the drought the last two years, we've seen an increase in the number of heifers retained for the cow herd, despite the high rate of cow culling," Schwab said. "This resulted in one of the smallest beef cow herds in the last 60 years, but also one of the youngest and most productive herds ever. Maintaining all of these young cows in the herd long term is a big challenge to cattlemen."
Schwab points to the research conducted by the National Animal Health Monitoring System in 2007-08 that reported 33 percent of all culled cows left the herd because they did not conceive during the breeding season, and nearly 16 percent of all culled cows left the herd before five years of age.
"If the national beef cow herd is to grow, it will require better management of the replacement heifer and young cows to improve conception and retention," said Schwab. "This conference will give producers information they can apply to their herd management."
All sessions include a meal for those preregistered at least two days prior to the event. The $20 fee is payable at the door. Walk-in registrations are $25 per person and a meal is not guaranteed.

Undescended Testicle
Topic Overview
What is an undescended testicle?
As a baby boy grows inside his mother, he develops testicles. Early in his development, his testicles are in his belly. Normally, before he is born, his testicles move down into his scrotum, the sac that hangs below the penis. When one testicle does not move into the scrotum as it should, the baby has an undescended testicle. In rare cases, both testicles are undescended.
It is most common in baby boys who were born before their due date or who were very small at birth.
Doctors don't really know what causes an undescended testicle. This common condition runs in some families (can be inherited).
Most of the time, the testicle descends (drops) on its own by the time the baby is 3 months old. If your baby's testicle hasn't dropped by the time he is 6 months of age, your doctor may suggest treatment.
What are the symptoms?
An undescended testicle doesn't cause pain or other symptoms. The scrotum may look a little smoother or less developed on one side, or the side without a testicle may look smaller and flatter. You can't feel the testicle in the scrotum on the side where it hasn't descended.
How is an undescended testicle diagnosed?
At newborn and well-baby visits, your doctor will check your baby's scrotum.
- If the testicle can be felt but it is not in the scrotum, the doctor will probably want to check your baby again at 3 to 6 months of age. By this time, the testicle may have moved into place on its own.
- Sometimes the doctor can't feel the testicle at all. It could still be in the baby's belly, it could be too small to feel, or it could be absent. The doctor may recommend a type of surgery called laparoscopy to see if he or she can find the testicle. Laparoscopy requires only a small cut below the belly button, which heals quickly.
- If both testicles are undescended and can't be felt in the groin, the doctor will do a blood hormone test to find out if the testicles are absent. This means having no testicles at all. It is very rare to have two absent testicles.
Some other conditions are closely related to undescended testicles, such as an ectopic or retractile testicle. In both of these conditions, the testicle is in an abnormal position in the groin or scrotum. Your doctor will take care to make the correct diagnosis so your child can get the right treatment.
How is it treated?
Usually doctors recommend a wait-and-see approach for newborns. If the testicle hasn't dropped on its own within 6 months, your doctor may recommend surgery (orchiopexy or orchidopexy). Surgery is done when the baby is 9 to 15 months old. It is safe and effective and has few risks. Most babies recover quickly.
When babies have a testicle that can't be felt, doctors may do a different surgery that needs only a small cut (laparoscopy).
Another treatment is hormone therapy. It may cause the testicle to drop down into the scrotum. If it works, surgery isn't needed. But it doesn't always work, and it may cause side effects.
Why is it important to treat an undescended testicle?
Treatment is important, because having an undescended testicle increases the risk of:
- Infertility . Damage to a testicle's sperm-making ability can begin as early as 12 months of age. That's why many doctors advise treating an undescended testicle by the time a baby is 1 year old and no later than age 2. Treatment helps lower the chance of infertility.
- Cancer of the testicles . Men who were born with undescended testicles have a higher rate of testicular cancer than other men. But this cancer is rare. It can be cured if found early. If you are a young man who was born with an undescended testicle, talk with your doctor about what you should do.

The Sanchez is a dirtbike/dual sport in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, Grand Theft Auto IV, Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars and Grand Theft Auto V.
The Sanchez is the only dirtbike in most of the series' games, excluding its variant, the Manchez, which appears in Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories.
The Sanchez, with its soft suspension, high ground clearance and very light weight is useful for stunt biking and offroad applications, but sacrifices speed (being slower than the PCJ-600). They can be found on the streets of suburban or rural areas, and is also sometimes used in the Stadium(s) in GTA Vice City and GTA San Andreas, as part of side-missions. In GTA Vice City, GTA Liberty City Stories and GTA Vice City Stories, the Sanchez assumes the design of an older dirtbike model, complete with a large round headlight. The GTA San Andreas and GTA IV renditions feature more modernized design cues, giving the bike a sportier appearance; this Sanchez may be based on the Yamaha YZ450, indicated by the "GP-450"-sign at the back, meaning the engine displacement should be around 450cc.
Though its appearance remains unchanged in GTA IV (apart from its newer 4 stroke engine sound), it is still best suited for off-roading. The Sanchez is equipped with a permanent daytime running headlight where the headlight is always on regardless of time of day. Like all bikes in GTA IV's single player mode, the Sanchez must be driven with particular caution in traffic to avoid severe injury as the player may easily be dismounted.
Black Sanchez
In Grand Theft Auto: Vice City there are three unique Black Sanchez dirt bikes that appear in the side mission "Trial By Dirt". While the player races around the dirt track with the Sanchez, Three black Sanchez dirt bikes chase the player. Rather than use guns, the Haitian riders wield Machetes, but are relatively easy to kill. These bikes appear around half way around the first lap, though obtaining one of these bikes is easy if the player waits on the spot upon beginning the mission. The player can then prepare for the arrival of the Haitians. The Black Sanchez's speed and handling are the same as its normally-colored counterparts.
A similar Sanchez with unique black paint job can be found in The Ballad of Gay Tony during Armando Torres' mission "Clocking Off".
The Manchez, featured in GTA Liberty City Stories, serves as an improved variant of the Sanchez with a rugged exterior and superior performance.
- The model number "GP-450" over the rear fender of the GTA IV rendition of the Sanchez is similar in format to the names of other sportsbikes in the GTA series (including the PCJ-600, BF-400, HPV-1000, FCR-900, NRG-500 and NRG-900).
- In GTA San Andreas, as it may be based off a classic American dirtbike, the Sanchez along with the Freeway are the only American based motorcycles in the game.
- Sánchez (correct form of the surname with accent mark), meaning "son of Sancho", is a very common Spanish name with some deformations in America like Sanchez o Sanches. Sánchez is the 5th most popular surname in Spain, 10th in Argentina and 52nd in the United States.
- The Sanchez is the Forelli Family's vehicle of choice in GTA: Vice City
- In GTA IV, you can hear the Sanchez spit flames through the exhaust, although the flame is not visible.
- The GTA IV rendition features Terroil decals on the front suspension fork.
- In GTA IV, the two default radio stations in the Sanchez are Electro-Choc and Radio Broker.
- In the beta version of GTA: San Andreas, the Sanchez had the same design as GTA: Vice City's Sanchez.[1]
- The Sanchez's name, along with the fact that it is a dirt bike, may be a reference to "Dirty Sanchez", which is a slang term for a sex act associated with coprophilia. "Dirty Sanchez" is also the title of a British TV show.
- The Gangstar video games series for the iOS, mostly based on the GTA games, features a dirt bike with the same name and appearance.
- In GTA IV, the Sanchez is the only bike in game which doesn't have a possibility to use electric start. It is started by foot pedal instead.
GTA Vice City
- Parked at the southeast corner of the dirt track in northern Downtown
GTA San Andreas
- Driven very often around Red County, Flint County and Bone County.
- Can be found driving around on the Tierra Robada Freeway, and El Quebrados. (Spawns near the El Quebrados Police Station.
