Here is the 20 most important Programming Languages that you must know about it. In fact nowadays all desktop and Android applications are running with the help of these Programming Language only. You must remember these 20 Programming languages which i have mentioned Below.
Friends if we make a list of the most important programming languages, we'll we come across two categories. There are many vintage programming languages that just won't die and continue to be used in their respective field.
Here, I'll be telling you about The most 20 Important Programming Languages in the World and the list that covers the best of both old and new programming languages.
C was originally developed by Dennis Ritchie between 1969 and 1973 at Bell Labs, and used to re-implement the Unix operating system. It has since become one of the most widely used programming languages of all time, with C compilers from various vendors available for the majority of existing computer architectures and operating systems.Mother of many other programming languages–Python, PHP, Perl, MATLAB–C is also used to write a large chunk of Unix, Windows, and Linux operating systems.
ALGOL (short for Algorithmic Language) is a family of imperative computer programming languages, originally developed in the mid-1950s, which greatly influenced many other languages and was the standard method for algorithm description used by the ACM in textbooks and academic sources for more than thirty years.
Today, the use of ALGOL is minimal but the roots of many major programming languages could be traced back to it.
COBOL was designed in 1959, by CODASYL and was partly based on previous programming language design work by Grace Hopper, commonly referred to as "the (grand)mother of COBOL".It was created as part of a US Department of Defense effort to create a portable programming language for data processing. it found its use in heavy business systems like insurance, banking etc.
Even today mainframe computers running in government departments, banks, nuclear power stations use COBOL and it's still being produced and developed.
Originally developed by IBM in the 1950s for scientific and engineering applications, Fortran came to dominate this area of programming early on and has been in continuous use for over half a century in computationally intensive areas such as numerical weather prediction, finite element analysis, computational fluid dynamics, computational physics and computational chemistry.
It is a popular language for high-performance computing and is used for programs that benchmark and rank the world's fastest supercomputers.Today, it still finds its use among the scientific community, physicists, and engineers.
Ada is a structured, statically typed, and object-oriented high-level computer programming language, Which is extended from Pascal and other languages. Developed in 1980, this programming language, is used in military and air traffic control due to its safety provisions.
This PL/1 language Created in 1964 and introduced in 1969, PL/I stands for Programming Language One. Invented by an IBM committee , this language lost its favor in 1970s. However, PL/I is still used in IBM System/360 mainframes due to IBM's dominance in tech.
Pascal is an procedural programming language, designed in 1968/1969 and published in 1970 by Niklaus Wirth as a small and efficient language intended to encourage good programming practices using structured programming and data structuring.Pascal is still taught as object-oriented programming at many places.
Originally specified in 1958, Lisp is the second-oldest high-level programming language in widespread use today.Talking about the contemporary presence, Lisp is a popular programming language in AI field.
Scala is a general purpose programming language.Invented by Martin Odersky in 2004, Scala's was inspired by the criticism of Java.It's one of the most popular JVM scripting languages. It is Designed to be concise and Scala also finds use in data science.
Go (often called as golang) is an open source programming language created at Google in 2007 by Robert Griesemer, Rob Pike, and Ken Thompson. It is a compiled, statically typed language in the tradition of Algol andC, with garbage collection.This fast programming language follows Unix's principle of "Do one thing. And do it well.
It was designed by Ross Ihaka and Robert Gentleman in 1993. R is a programming language and software environment for statistical computing and graphics supported by the R Foundation for Statistical Computing.The R language is widely used among statisticians and data miners for developing statistical software anddata analysis.
The 9 Most In-Demand Programming Languages of 2016
SQL (Structured Query Language) is a special purpose programming language designed for managing data held in a relational database management system (RDBMS), or for stream processing in a relational data stream management system (RDSMS).was designed by Donald D. Chamberlin and Raymond F. Boyce. It is over all a ment for Database for storing data.Originally SQL based on tuple relational calculus and relational algebra, this special-purpose programming language is widely used as a standard for relational database management systems.
Developed by James Gosling at Sun Microsystems, Java first appeared 21 years ago in 1995. And is simpler to use than one of its influencers C++.Java applications are typically compiled to bytecode that can run on any Java virtual machine (JVM) regardless ofcomputer architecture. As of 2016. It's not going anywhere anytime soon and is used to power company websites like LinkedIn.com, Netflix.com and Amazon.com.
Designed by Brenden Eich, then working at Netscape, in 10 days in 1995, JavaScript is a high-level and dynamic programming. and it is also scriptlet Language and also referred as "language of the web.". JavaScript – not to be confused with Java – is another one of the world's most popular and powerful programming languages, and is used to spice up web pages by making them interactive. For example, JavaScript can be used to add effects to web pages, display pop-up messages or to create games with basic functionality.
C# it is pronounced as "C Sharp", was developed by Microsoft in 2000. It was designed for use in Redmond's .NET framework. Specially .NET framework. It is a multi-paradigm programming language. It is also a Object Oriented Programming Language. And is used to build a variety of applications that target Windows environment.
Python is a general purpose programming language that was named after the Monty Python (so you know it's fun to work with)! Python is simple and incredibly readable since closely resembles the English language. it's a great language for teaching programming at school. Python is used by organizations like Google, NASA, Yahoo, and CERN. It also finds major applications in the scientific community, data mining, and AI field.
C++ is a general-purpose and object-oriented programming language that was created between 1979 and 1983.C++ was first released in 1983. Stroustrup keeps an extensive list of applications written in C++. The list includes Adobe and Microsoft applications, MongoDB databases, large portions of Mac OS/X and is the best language to learn for performance-critical applications such as "twitch" game development or audio/video processing.
PHP is a server-side scripting language designed for web development but also used as a general-purpose programming language. Originally created by Rasmus Lerdorf in 1994, the PHP reference implementation is now produced by The PHP Group.PHP originally stood for Personal Home Page. It's used to make dynamic websites and establishes itself as the backbone of WordPress.
Swift/ios is a general-purpose, multi-paradigm, compiled programming language created for iOS, macOS, watchOS, tvOS and Linux developed by Apple Inc. Swift is designed to work with Apple's Cocoa and Cocoa Touch frameworks and the large body of existingObjective-C code written for Apple products. In 2014, Apple decided to invent their own programming language. The result was Swift – a new programming language for iOS and OS X developers to create their next killer app.
Like Java or the C language, Ruby is a general purpose programming language, though it is best known for its use in web programming, and Rails serves as a framework for the Ruby Language. Ruby–a dynamic, general purpose, and object-oriented programming language–was developed in 1990s by Yukihiro "Matz" Matsumoto. It's used from companies ranging from small start-ups to large enterprises and everything in-between. Hulu, Twitter, Github and Living Social are using Ruby on Rails for at least one of their web Applications.

VIDEO: Horrified dad claims McDonald's Happy Meal toy performs SEX ACT
A DAD confiscated his daughter's McDonald's Happy Meal toy because he thought Super Mario was looking... well, a little TOO happy.
Horrified Tyler Atfield's three-year-old received the Nintendo action figure with her lunch meal.
But he was left shocked when he saw her playing with the toy as he was convinced the mechanical arm moving up and down made it look like Mario was performing a sex act.
Coupled with a suspicious grin on the character's moustachioed face, Mr Atfield was left disgusted.
The figure is given away with a boomerang but without the utensil the dad said it looked just "so wrong".
The 25-year-old motorbike mechanic and father-of-five of Plymouth in Devon, said: "I was very concerned because it looked completely inappropriate. I was not happy.
"They should not be giving out toys that look like that.
"My kids started doing the action and it was so wrong. Without the boomerang it doesn't look right."
The dad believes Mario is carrying out a sex act without his boomerang
My kids started doing the action and it was so wrong. Without the boomerang it doesn't look right
McDonald's defended the supposed action of the computerised plumber.
A spokesperson for the fast food chain said: "Super Mario toys are a much loved part of our Happy Meal promotional range.
"This particular toy has been available across the world since 2014 without any complaints so we are surprised that Boomerang Mario has been misconstrued in this way.
McDonald's deny any ill-behaviour by the star saying they have not received complaints before
"We hope the vast majority of our customers continue to enjoy the Team Mario range in the way the fun children's toys were intended."
Just a month ago McDonald's was criticised by parents who claimed the Minions toys given away with food were swearing by saying "what the f***!".
The company denied the claims saying the character was speaking Minionese - a mixture of Japanese, French, Indian, English, Spanish and Italian.

Letter(s) from Lilia Podkopaeva to Frank (USA)
Letter 1
Hi Frank,
Forgive to me, I to not write to you earlier.
I was in hospital. Because had FLU, and I could not answer you.
We have met on dreammates.com.
If you do not remember me I write to you the last letter.
I have attached it below my present letter.
Now I shall try to tell more about myself.
I saw your add and should say you are a very interesting and attractive man.
I wish I could have a chance to get to know you.
Hope you will give me this chance and will write me more about yourself.
And now I will give you an idea of who I am.
My name is Lilya. I am 28 y.o.
I live in Russia, in city Kurgan.
It on a southern part of the central Russia, if you want to see it on a map.
My weigh is 58(120f.) kg.
My height is 167(5.5f.) centimeters.
I think you will have a better idea of me looking at my picture I am attaching to this letter.
I have never been married and have no children.
I am slim and in a good shape. I am fond of jogging to keep fit. You see I live in the surburb of city.
So it is very convenient for me to do it in the morning or in the evening. I enjoy the fresh air and the nature around me and at the same time keep my body fit.
I work in the restaurant every second day as a waitress and have to go to the city.
I have to earn for my living as I have nobody to take care of me. I have to survive in this big and cruel world myself. I lost my parents in a car accident. I don't like to talk about this as it still hurts me very much. I can say that I have many interests and I enjoy life as it is. I always try to find something good even in bad situation.
I just love this life and want to live a complete full life.
The only thing I really miss in my life now is a close person.
A person who will allow me to lay my head on his shoulder and to tell him everything what is inside of me, in my soul.
I want to love and to be loved. I want to take care of my beloved person and devote all of myself to him. To see his smile and be happy just because of it, to love everything in him.
Just to love his as he is with all his advantages and disadvantages. We are not ideal and we are interesting because we have disadvantages which make us differ from each other.
I have attached to you the pic, I hope, I shall like to you.
It is made in the last summer, but I have not changed. I now look as on a photo!! Just now I have little bit other hairdress. Now my hair straight lines. I love me hairdresses. I do not love monotony.
I think, it is pleasant to you. /
I think I should close here. I use an internet cafe as I don't have my personal computer and phone at home. Please, don't worry if you don't get a letter from me. I will write you in a day as I have to go to the city to write you.
Will be waiting impatiently for your reply.
I shall wait your answer 2 days.... Write to me you want whether or not with me to have relations?
For the beginning as the friend...
I have 2 email adrress.
You can write on any:
Letter 2
Hi Frank,
I see that you are not interested in me and you don't want to continue correspondence with me.
It is a pity. You are the only one I tried to have correspondence with. Are you scared that I am from Russia?
Or with the distance between us?
I don't think it is really a problem. If we like each other through the correspondence, I will be able to come to visit you and to see if we are for each other. Or you can come here to visit me. What do you think about this? Of course, if you are not interested in me, I will stop writing to you. Just tell me about it and I will understand everything.
Have a good day!
Letter 3
Hi, dear Frank!!!
I am so happy to get a reply from you.
Your letter captured me and forgot about the time reading it.
You can name me Lulu or Lina. This my short name.
You can name me as it is pleasant to you...
So everyone name me.
I didn't have a goal to find someone abroad. I just came to the internet cafe to find some necessary information and saw you.
And I decided why not to try? Perhaps that is a chance for both of us?
I can't say that all men in Russia are bad. There are good and bad people in any nation.
But most of Russian men are very spoilit with women. And they don't care about our feelings. Sometimes they are very rude and the main problem here is that they drink too much alcohol. And I dream to find a caring, tender and understanding man.
And at this moment in my life I have to take care of myself alone. I work as a waitress to survive. Though I am a teacher in a primary school by profession, I have to work in the restaurant. It is hard to find a job on the profession and even if I have one, I will have a very small salary. I worked for some time as a teacher in the local school. But my salary was so small that I even couldn't pay my bills. But in spite of it, I enjoyed my work. I like to work with the children. They bring joy and happiness into our life. I speak English rather well as I have been studied in the Institute for 5 years..
Thanks for beautiful eCard!!!
I do not know what difference in time between us.
I would like to ask you. Why do you look for a woman? I think you are a person with a big heart and open soul and you shouldn't have problems with it in your country.
Well, I hope to hear from you very soon.
Please answer my letters during 2 days if it is not difficult for you.
I shall write to you in a day,
P.S. I will try to send you my pictures with each letter if there are no problems with the scanner in the internet cafe.
Letter 4
Hi, my dear Frank,
That is such a pleasure to get letters from you.
You just can't imagine what I feel when I see that there is a message from you.
It is always so nice to get more and more about you.
Thanks for a photo!!!
I am very active and I do aerobics in my spare time.
I am fond of swimming. When I have some free time I go to the swimming-pool. I am not fond watching sports on TV. Internet is a very good invention. It gives an opportunity to meet your soulmate even being on a distance.
I would like so much to meet with you in real, to see your eyes and to sink in them, to feel your warm touch...
Well, this is a dream, a very sweet dream. Perhaps, I could come to your place one day... Who knows what life prepares for us.
I am not the kind of person who likes to waste time. I never feel bored and you will be able to feel this with me one day.
I want every day to be a celebration. I know that life is difficult and that's just impossible. But my beloved man will feel that every day for him is a holiday. I will do my best for it. I am fond of cooking and you know, I am rather good at it. I will cook something tasty for you one day if we meet and we will enjoy our time together.
As for my other interests, I am fond of reading, watching movie ( I prefer comedies and love stories ), music ( I like country music very much and also some pop singers like Madonna ).
I like to meet my friends and spend time with them or go somewhere to the countryside. I wish you could experience this with me.
I am a very active and energetic person. And I like red color very much, that is a color of passion and love.
Tell me, please, about your likes and dislikes.
Today I have attached a photo of 2003. It is day of wedding of my friend Lena. Then I carried little bit other hairdress.
You have paid attention? I like to change the image.
To what I to you like more? With dark or light hair?
I will be waiting forward to your letter.
Have a good time.
Letter 5
Hi, sunshine Frank!!!
That is such a happiness to see a letter from you.
I realized that I was smiling when I noticed how people in the Internet Cafe looked at me. Internet Cafe here is just a place where different people who don't have their personal computers come to find some information or to write a letter as it is in my case. They just pay money and feel free to use computers as long as they want.
It is so easy for me to write you like I have known you for ages. I can tell you everything and have a feeling that I can trust you. Though I am rather picky about people and it is not easy for me to trust. I feel that I can do it with you. I can be sincere and open with you like I am.
I hate lies and when people are dishonest.
I would like to ask you what you think about treachery.
In my opinion that is awful and it hurts so much to know that a close person lied to you. I will never hurt anyone like this. And hope to get the same in return..
Would you like to get to know a little about my city.
It is very cosy and green.
We have beautiful parks here and flowers are blossoming in spring. It is so romantic to walk there when the stars are shining and when your beloved person is together with you.
Are you a romantic person?
Do you like animals? As for me I just adore dogs. They are very faithful and give you their love without any conditions.
Today I have attached a photo where I sing a karaoke.
To like you it? You like to sing a karaoke?
Well, I will close here for now and will be waiting for your next letter impatiently.
Have a wonderful day!
P.S. You know I would like to send you a handwritten letter and some surprise. Hope you don't mind? That's why I need your mail address. Please, send it to me next time. Ok?
Here is my address if you would like to do the same.
Do not send me perfume and flowers. Because I have an allergy on pungent smells. If you will send it to me, I shall hurt much. But please do not send me expensive things, Russian mail is unreliable also it can not reach me!
Lilya Podkopaeva,
Chehova str.-7, apt.-12,
Kurgan, 640004, Russia.
Letter 6
Hi, my sunhine Frank!!!
I sorry, that I have not answered you earlier.
I could not make it because Internet cafe did not work. It has been closed on repair. I hope, you forgive to me it? And we shall develop our attitudes.
Now all works, and I shall write to you in a day as was earlier. Therefore answer me when receive this letter. You are the ray of light in my life. I got up and had a happy smile on my face. I was thinking of you!!!
I have one request for you. Can y ou send me some favourite pictures of yours?
I would print them and hang on my wall to see you every time I get up and go to bed..
Thanks for beautiful eCard!!!
I am not going to lie to you and to ask you for money or to use you just to go to another country!!!I am very sorry to hear that Russian women tried to use men abroad. I didn't know this. I will not ask you for money. I don't need it!!!
I am happy without it!!! That is why you don't need to worry.
I don't communicate with you because of money!
Today I have attached a photo which has been made in the past to year. It is made about a gate in our beautiful park. I like to walk there.
I had a wonderful dream last night.
We were there together with you. It was a beach somewhere on a beautiful island. There were only two of us. Just you and me. We even didn't talk. We were holding our hands enjoying the calmness of the moment. That was great. We were so close to each other. I was the happiest woman in the word as the man of my dream was with me. That was a wonderful feeling and I still feel that passion and love I had inside of me. Do you have any fantasies or dreams? You can tell me if it is not a secret.
I have a feeling that you are the one I can create a strong and happy family with.
Would you like to have children? I think this will be a mutual decision. My husband will always be on the first place for me. And if he doesn't want to have children. Well, I will do whatever he wants.
Take care, dear and write me your thoughts.
Letter 7
Hi, dear Frank!!!
Thank you so much for your letter!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was in a low spirit today. I feel tired.
I work for 9 and more hours a day. And I have to be patient with our clients which is not easy always as they can act in a very rude manner.
I get for about 64 dollars a month( if to convert roubles in dollars ). Paying all the bills I have very little money left that's why I am not able to buy my own computer. And I can't write you letters very often as I have to pay for every letter I get and send.
Sorry for complaining, dear. Hope you ynderstand me./
Your letter uplifted my spirits. I feel much better now after reading it.
Can you tell me more about your country. I am interested in everything what is connected with you.
I feel so vulnerable here and even miserable sometimes.
People are so cruel and rude. And I am so glad that I have you in my life. You are so smart and understanding.
I want to say thank you! Just for being my friend and being in my life.
I have not attached for you a photo because I go from work and I have no with myself a photo. I shall send you next time. I promise.
Miss you...
Letter 8
My sunshine Frank!!!
First I want to apologize for my letter yesterday.
I shouldn't complain to you.
But you are such a dear person to me and I feel that you understand me. In any way, I will not do it any more not to bother you. Your letters became part of my life and I appreciate so much your support.
It is not so easy for me to trust anyone. Once I was betrayed with a very close person and it hurted me so much.
I was in love but he cheated to me and left me for another woman. It was so painful.
But it is already in the past. And we should live with the present. Especially now when we have each other.
Though we have only letters but I hope that you can trust me. We already know each other though only through the letters. And I like so much what I see and know.
You are a great person and you are the best what I have in my life now. And I feel that I can trust you and hope you will not lie to me...
Your money are not necessary to me!!! I have money for a trip!!!!!!!!
2 days ago I have made a new hairdress to myself. I hope it to you to like. I have attached a photo of it. It is a photo it is made yesterday.
You know, I often imagine us together holding hands, doing some things together. And I think that it is already the time when we can think about meeting. I could come to you to be with you and to see what it is like to live in your country.
That is a very serious step. And getting visa for me will take some time. Life is short to waste time. And if you want me, I could come for 10 0r 15 days. But it depends on you.
I could Stay for longer if you want.
If it frightens you, I shall arrive only as the visitor!!!
That is a chance for both of us. And I think we should use it.
If you like this idea, we can talk about it seriously.
Thinking about you...
Letter 9
My dear Frank,
I have been thinking about you the whole night and morning today. I was not able to sleep.
I have so many thoughts about you and us in my head that it drives me crazy.
I can't recognize myself and it seems to me so unreal.
But I feel it, really feel it inside.
I can't live without your letters. Every day is like torture for me when I can't read a letter from you. I want to be with you, I want to feel you with every part of my body. I want to kiss your lips, your eyes, your hands. I want to make love to you, I want to be with you when you are sad and happy. I want to hold your hand when we sleep. I want to cook breakfast for you, to spend weekends with you, to wait for the time when you come from work. I want to have family with you. I want to have "US". To be one whole.
What is it? I think I LOVE YOU!!! Please, don't be scared with my feelings. I just can't pretend. I love you and I want you to know it.
My love is so big that it is enough for two of us.
I want you to love me so much. I even feel physical pain as I want to be with you now so much.
I wish to get into the plane right now and to appear into your hands...
I have attached photo. These are sexual photo.
I have made it on Saturday for you. I asked for this friend Tanya. I hope, I have not frightened you of it??? I only wished to show you, that I have a beautiful body!! I hope, you will not think of me badly after that??? I have a little hidden the person on these a photo. I am afraid, that it can fall into in other hands, not to you. And everyone will look at this.
I have only one request - do not ask me to send you such photo more.
I got to know, dear, that I would be able to get a tourist visa to come to you.
That is just a matter of time. I will have to do some paperwork to get visa, to pay for it and to buy air tickets.
I will do all the paperwork without problems.
I hope so much for your understanding. Please, let me know what you think about this.
Love you, love you, love you...
And so awfully miss you!!!
Letter 10
My beloved one Frank!!!
You are my life and I miss you so much.
I can't imagine my life without you. That is such a happiness to know that there is a person who cares and thinks about you. I know you feel the same. And though we are far from each other, I always feel that you are near, that you are close.
You are my joy and my happiness. My life without you seems so empty now.
And now I have you, I am not alone any more.
I know, I am sure that one day we will be together and will never part again.
Two halves can't live apart and one day they will get one whole again.
I believe and I know that you are my missing half and I will do my best, everything what depends on me to be with you. Believe me!!!!
I have good news. I have paied for visa and passport. It costed me 50 dollars. Now all I need is to wait when I get it. Are you happy? 50 dollars is a big sum of money for me but I am ready to spend it for our meeting! I have good news to you!!! I have paid the visa and the passport. Even if nothing works for.
My letter will be short today as I should leave for work already. Sometimes I get upset that I can't always find time to come to the Internet cafe to read a letter from you or to write you.
I can't live without you, without your letters.
So I will come to the Internet cafe in rain and in snowfall because I know that there is a letter from my sweetheart.
Love you.
Have a good day!!!
Letter 11
My darling Frank,
That was a wonderful dream. It was so colorful and bright.
I fell asleep yesterday thinking about you, with a smile on my face. And you were there in my dream. I was the happiest woman in the world as you were with me, the man whom I love so dearly. We were in a beautiful place. I think I can call it paradise. You were holding me and I was kissing you softly and then faster and faster.
I was kissing your eyes, your neck, your arms, every part of your body. Your skin was so tender and manly at the same time.
You put away my clothes and I felt your skin with my naked body...
It was such a feeling which I can't express with the words.
It is getting so hard for me to wait for the time when I see you at last, when I am able to touch you in real and to feel that intimacy. We just need to wait till I get visa and then we will make all our fantasies and wishes come true.
I get so excited and that is your fault, honey.
Miss you so badly
P.S. I go from work. I have forgotten to take with myself a photo for you. I shall send the next photo in the following letter.
Letter 12
Sweetheart Frank!
I want you to know that I love you so much and never forget about this.
I never thought I could have such feeling. It is so strong that I can't keep it inside.
It is such a happiness to know that I love and that there is a person who also loves me and waits for me as much as I do.
All we need now is to wait for some time till we are together.
I want so much to be with you.
I have been waiting for you all my life. And I love you. I am not afraid to tell you this and I am not afraid of my feelings.
I know that you are the man who makes me happy. And I know that I can also make you happy.
I am sure everything will be Ok and we will be happy with you.
Love you, love you.
Wait for your letter.
P.S. I wanted to send you 2 photos, but the scanner in Internet cafe to break. The manager has told, that the new scanner will bring only in 1 week. I cannot send you a photo in this term.
Letter 13
My dear Frank,
Sorry for not answering all your questions. I always feel so excited reading your letters that I forget about everything.
Also I have only 30 min in the Internet Cafe and I write in English so it takes me time to think.
Don't hesitate to ask me again and I wil answer you with pleasure.
I will never stop telling you how I love you.
By the way, what is love in your opinion?
In my opinion, love is devotion. It is a feeling when you give all yourself to your partner. When you feel that he is sad or unhappy een being on a distance. And it hurts you when you know about this and you try to do everything you can to make him happy.
Faithfulness is also very important. I can't live with a person if he betrays me even once. And I will never do the same to my partner.
Mutual understanding is also a key to healthy relations. When you feel that something is wrong , you should talk about it.
It is necessary to discuss problems but not keep silence. I hope We already understand each other very well though we haven't met in real. And I am sure that when we meet, we will do all we can to keep our relations strong.
I always dreamt to have a strong family. The place where I can come and feel that my family love and understand me. I hope you understand what I try to tell you.
Please, tell me your thoughts about it.
Till our next meeting.
Love you!!!
Letter 14
Honey Frank,
You have received yesterday from me the letter?
There I have answered your questions.
I feel so nervous and so excited.
I've got a letter from the Embassy.
They invite me for the interview. That is the last step before I get visa.
That is not a problem. I will fly to Moscow tomorrow.
As soon as I get visa, I will buy tickets and will get on a plane to get to you. I am so happy. Only in some days I will be able to hold you. Can you believe in this?
I still can't believe this happiness. That's great!!!
Please, tell me the nearest airport I should fly to.
Also I need to know where you will meet me. I don't want to be lost in a foreign country.
You see our dream comes true. I am so happy and you?
I will be not able to sleep. I want all these procedures to be over as soon as possible. I want to be with you!!!!!!!
I will let you know about all the results.
I love you...

I remember a time when blogs were a place where people shared things they had found with others and were met by enthusiastic comments and remarks by those who came to see what the hosts had found. I remember a lot of people whom i spoke to from many different venues, starting in various forums (many of which i can't even remember the names to anymore), and p2p networks like soulseek and emule, and torrent trackers like jpopsuki (all the way back to the original), and so on. Then there was the great blog boom where passionate archivists dug through the stacks of forgotten music and shared stuff that no one else had seen before.
One of the things I always treasured the most was when others asked me to find things for them. Often times it was things I had never heard of before. I was somehow attracted to these things, as if it was a piece of a puzzle that I was missing, and I would devote a great amount of time into tracking down these requests. I am reminded of this as I am writing, listening to one of those artists that was requested, Han-na, a female pop rocker from the late 80's, early 90's. I never was able to get my hands on any Han-na for the person who requested her years and years ago, but only just recently I was able to purchase a 3 song single by her, and, not surprisingly, I absolutely love it. Much of my own 'wish list' is in fact made up of things others have requested over the years, and I still uncover things from this list regularly. i never give up.
Admittedly, when I began my journey into japanese music I always had the approach of 'i'd rather hear it, than not' when it came to being picky about quality of rips. Then I joined what.cd, and after years of mish-mash rips and mutt rips and glitchy songs and poor quality, I sort of became obsessed with perfect rips and knowing where the rips came from and high quality. At the same time as I started caring about quality, it seems the rest of the internet went in the other direction. I mostly blame itunes for this, with their different standards, and everyone downloading flacs and alacs and mp3s and acc's.. i'm just glad oggs and that other stuff went away, or else things would be even crazier. it seemed that no one in the japanese music world cared where things came from or what the quality was. a lot of people only care about how many songs they can fit on their ipods, so 128s were even still a common rip. after 10 years of collecting and digging through the deepest corners of the internet, i got tired of all the sorting and sifting. i wanted the real thing.
so i started buying. for a long time i had wanted to buy things.. to fill in the holes that i couldn't find on the internet. but it was so damned expensive. but i didn't give up. and eventually i found ways to buy things cheaply. and i did. a lot. and so now in addition to the tens of thousands of albums that shit on my hard drives gathering virtual dust, i have over 3000 japanese cds and a few hundred vinyl on top of that. and i find myself with no proper way to share these with anyone. the blogs have all run dry as the internet police have shut down the various mules for files. the forums have all collapsed in disarray. the torrent trackers are either ghost towns of former japanese music lovers, or are thriving metropolises of people who don't give a shit about japanese music.
so where has all the love gone? i realize that many of us who were collectors, who were thirsty to uncover fresh music from the world beyond our borders have amassed giant collections that can last us a lifetime, and we really don't need any more. and the internet got so damn big and bottomless, that uncovering new music was so easy that it became overwhelming to keep track of. but my desire to share and connect and build a library, an archive, still burns. i do not amass a huge library simply to stare at and listen to it in isolation. i do it because i want other people to know it. so that we can talk about it, and be enthused by it. so that when we listen to that dusty album that has 6 listeners on last.fm we can realize that there are thousands of bands out there who never got their due. and maybe, just maybe, more people should get a chance to be exposed to them.
so what do we do? how do we move forward? how do we build the library?
In addition to the termination or degradation of most of the best ways to share files on places like blogs, i also lost the time for the blog when i tried something new with my life. i wont bore you with the details, but that chapter of my life, 3 years later, has come to a close. and i find myself back here, wishing things were like they used to be. i realize most of the regulars are long gone and may never stick there head back into this corner of the web... but who knows. so for the next couple of weeks as we lead up to the holidays, i am contemplating the best way to move forward. what do you think?

"Now, even loneliness can be considered a lost art"
The sentence is inscribed into the wall in the back corner close to the floor. It was done by hand with some sort of sharp object. The message was most probably carved by the previous occupant of the cell – and that must have been quite some time ago.
She has been here for months, maybe a year. She has lost count. The message means more now than it ever did. She finds herself lying down on the floor to stare at it almost every day. At night, the letters are hard to make out. The light which shines through the narrow slit at the top back corner of the room during the day is her only solace, despite the fact that it makes the message readable.
When she was first placed in holding here, that scribbling in the far bottom corner of the room did not carry the slightest amount of value. In fact, at first she did not even notice it. Maybe because of all the anger and sadness which made up the person she was at that point, but she could never have known what those suppressed feelings of anger and sadness would become. She did not realise how deep that pit reached until much later.
This cold and hollow block of concrete in which she is kept for her crimes has shown her the darkest corners of her mind, but it has also allowed her to unearth the most peculiar and unconventional feelings in the form of calm and possibly forgiveness. The reality is, her end is near and she knows it. They have simply kept her locked in this cell for much longer than any human body or mind can withstand. Her instincts have served their purpose, but what is there to do when you live out an uncountable amount of days in a small empty room just big enough for you to fall down in? How can your body maintain the will to live, when you are fed something which can only be identified as food because it is served on a plate, through the small opening at the bottom of the thick metal door? How do you retain your humanity when you are supposed to defecate and urinate in a filthy bucket in the corner, which is changed out once every two days?
The floor is cold.
She stares at every letter of the message. She knows that it could quite possibly be just another part of their tactics, to torture her, but by this time she does not care.
She would like to think, that even if the words on the wall are just the empty scribblings of another prisoner gone mad or a cruel trick of theirs, she has identified a transcendent truth of our nature within those words.
The darkness has consumed almost all of her being. She has lost all sense of time and space. She knows no human interaction other than the passing of food and the ablution bucket through the door, and when she was taken out for treatment… at the beginning.
At first, she was scared. She would not eat the food. She would not drink the water. She threw up, because the bucket would stink so horribly. That first night was quite possibly the coldest and longest of her life. She cried and screamed until she passed out on the cold concrete floor.
After a few days, she could not hold it any longer and had to eat the food and drink the water. There was not much else to do. She felt as if they had prevailed, but it was no longer a question of winning or losing. It was between living and dying. She attempted to communicate with the person bringing the food and the bucket, but there were no replies or communication of any sort, ever. Not even when she was sedated, blindfolded and taken for treatment. After a while she began to imagine conversations happening between her and other people, or inanimate objects. She was sure she'd once heard a voice coming from the other side of the slit in the roof, but received no reply to her calls. She thought she'd had a conversation with someone on the other side of the door once, but she now knows it was only her imagination getting the better of her.
Loneliness and depravity does not begin to describe it.
The message carved out on the wall in the cell is proven again and again to be true. She has come to realise that nobody ever wants to be alone, but because ofour true nature, we should never be allowed amongst other people – or any living thing for that matter.
"The darkness stemming from this isolation," she speaks to herself"…goes to show that we are incapable of stability, or ever truly functioning in a sustained, independent manner. The mere fact that one is capable of doing these horrific and unspeakable things to another of his own kind, regardless of faith or belief, ascertains that we all ought to be isolated or extinct. Seclusion from everything we knowcould ultimately be the cause of our own obliteration."
She closes her eyes, lying fairly still on the concrete floor.
The treatments, which were part of this correctional process at the beginning of her sentence, haveexpunged much of her memory.
She remembers the charges of high treason and being suspected of being allied with the B.L.A.
She remembers being sent off to the Strydomville Intensive Correctional Services Facility…
But not much more before that.
Every now and again she tries to remember her family, friends and the people she cared for, but she remembers them only as far away, open spaces beyond the walls of her universe – which consists only of that cubicle area, dark, cold, concrete, in which she now exists.
Every day the memories of her previous life enter her mind, but she has recently come to a point where there exists no past, for she is at her end. Those recollectionsare irrelevant now. They are systematically cast from her mind as the exhaustion and delusions consume her.
Her body is in pain.
She can feel her insides are not as they should be.
It is time to give up.
It is somewhat of an anticlimax to end it all here.She has never thought it possible to die at will, but she will try. She has thought about killing herself countless times and has identified multiple ways to do it, but none are painless.
Giving up on this malicious world will be the most satisfying thing she has done in a long time.
She tries to fall asleep, to never move, to never wake again.
It is all lost and done with anyhow.
She feels the cold seep into her bones and the numbness befalls her.
Her eyelids grow heavier and heavier, her breathing shallow.
Her heart a faraway noise; each beat solitary, weak.
A loud metallic bang wrenches her back into that wicked cement hole where she lays, waiting to die.
It is a sound she hasn't heard in a long time.
She opens her eyes and lifts her heavy head.
The door creeks open and a searing white light blinds her, and within that light, a figure steps quietly into the cell.

Ever have trouble with a sock in the pump??..or small articles of clothing getting lost somewhere after the laundry is done??
I have a great solution for you!! :-)
Things caught in the pump...often "light" articles of clothing will "float" on top of the wash water and during the spin/pump cycle they can jump from the inner basket into the outer holding tank and become lodged in the pump.
Keeping all your small - light articles of clothing...E.G. nylons, socks, kids clothes, mittens...all together and not getting mixed up and lost during the wash and dryer cycles can also be a problem.
Try using a laundry bag...we use them for all socks ( keeps them separated so my kids cannot steal mine!! )...and helps to stop lose those little articles of clothing. Just throw these types of clothes into the bad, zip it closed and wash and dry. Unzip the bag and put away in the drawers :-)
This is an example of one...

Network Rail CEO Mark Carne discusses the Shaw Report
In response to a feature in Railway Technology on the impact of the Shaw Report, Network Rail chief executive Mark Carne talks to Julian Turner about decentralisation, greater regional devolution for Great Britain's railways, the future sale of non-core assets and NR's £40bn Railway Upgrade Plan.
Mark Carne has been chief executive of Network Rail since September2013. Previously, he worked as executive vice president for Royal Dutch Shell in the Middle East and North Africa, executive VP and managing director for BG Group in Europe and Central Asia, and spent 21 years at Shell.
Julian Turner: Seven months on from the release of the Shaw Report, what is your reaction to it?
Mark Carne: I welcomed Nicola's report and I'm pleased that she concluded that the reforms we are introducing are the right ones. Network Rail's devolved business model will put decisions on the routes, closer to the passengers and train companies. I also endorse her desire to see more private finance for the railways. Private money and funding from the people who will ultimately benefit from railway improvements is a sensible way to deliver a bigger and better railway for the nation.
We're working with the Department for Transport (DfT) on the recommendations and look forward to a future that I genuinely believe is bright for the railways and its growing number of passengers.
JT: PricewaterhouseCoopers described the report as "perhaps the biggest shake up of Network Rail since privatisation". What are the implications for NR and Great Britain's rail network?
MC: We expect passenger numbers to double over the next 25 years, driven by an increasing population, urbanisation and an ever more congested road network. Such growth poses a huge challenge because our railways are, in many places, already full at peak times and too often passengers are left standing on crowded trains. It also impacts train performance, with one failure impacting tens, or even hundreds, of trains.
NR's response to the Shaw Report focuses on the changes required to ensure the railway is at the heart of creating a stronger, more vibrant economy with more jobs and more housing, rather than becoming a congested brake on economic opportunity. Moving from a centralised to a devolved structure is a big change but it's the right one to enable the company to better deliver and rise to the challenges that lie ahead; further devolution, technological transformation and financial reform.
JT: The report says railways lack local flexibility and autonomy to address operator and customer needs, and that NR's structures do not give "sufficient focus on financial discipline". Do you agree?
MC: Further devolution of responsibilities to routes and financial reform are two of the broad changes we've identified. The pressures of long-term underinvestment and the current congestion many passengers face highlight challenges for the whole industry. We believe in devolution to route businesses that focus on delivering outstanding performance and innovating with customers.
JT: How does NR plan to deliver on key report recommendations such as a route for the North?
MC: NR launched an in-depth review, which found that the disadvantages of creating a route for the North (cost, disruption caused by this significant organisational change) outweighed the benefits.
Instead, the review concluded that day-to-day operational routes should remain and be overlaid by a new Northern investment organisation headed by a single point of contact for key regional funders and stakeholders, and for the strategy, planning and delivery of investment across the North.
As for putting freight shippers at the heart of infrastructure management, NR created a 'virtual route' to better meet the needs of freight customers and the sector. The route team also has responsibility for national passenger operators, primarily CrossCountry, across multiple routes.
In terms of skills and diversity, women now represent 25% of our board and executive committee. We have a good proportion of women in our Accelerated Leaders Programme, and are growing our gender and ethnicity diversity in our early entrant programmes, particularly our graduate initiative.
NR's diversity and inclusion strategy, Spaces and Places for Everyone, is highly regarded across the rail and engineering sectors, and we also have an award-winning, industry-acclaimed diversity and inclusion team running a number of diversity awareness programmes across the business. We know that there is more to do, but the transformation in the last two years is something to celebrate.
JT: Will deeper route devolution supported by independent regulation enable NR to mirror a regional regulated utility model − similar to that of the water industry − and is this desirable?
MC: Too many people feel that NR remains centralised, slow, inward focused and bureaucratic − we are changing, but we must act faster. We must accelerate the devolution within our company to route businesses that can be closer to train and freight operating companies, take decisions faster and can innovate more effectively, meeting the needs of our individual customers.
Improving the way NR works needs to be supported by strong regulation with clear accountabilities between the Office of Rail and Road, DfT and NR − and clearly aligned incentives between industry parties. Further devolution will support increasing analysis and benchmarking of NR's performance at a route level while recognising that routes each form part of the whole rail system.
JT: The Shaw Report suggests that NR looks for alternative financing and that profitable lines could be managed as long-term concessions. Is this feasible and what alternative financing is available?
MC: Financial reform is one of three broad changes set out in NR's response to the Shaw Report scoping document, which will help the rail industry rise to the challenges ahead, alongside further devolution to route businesses and accelerated technological transformation to deliver the capacity needed to cater for future demand.
Our approach is all about financial discipline, with a renewed focus on our core activities while being open and innovative about new sources of finance to fund our growing railway.
NR's job is to help support Britain's economic growth by providing the railway that Britain needs, today and in the future. While no decisions have yet been made, if there are investors or others with expertise in key areas who can help us do that, then we should look to embrace those opportunities.
JT: How do you respond to claims by rail unions that the sale of NR assets, local devolution and increased private investment could lead to further fragmentation and 'back-door privatisation'?
MC: Historically, the railway has suffered from massive long-term underinvestment. We've made no secret of the fact that we want to raise £1.8bn to help fund NR's five-year, £40bn Railway Upgrade Plan for the five-year period up to 31 March 2019.
The number of passengers on Britain's railways is growing faster than anywhere in Europe, but the network is also the most congested – so investment is needed to build capacity for more trains.
Non-core assets being considered for sale include commercial estate (including railway arches), freight estate, light maintenance depots, car parks − mainly non-station − and roadside advertising. These are assets which we could sell without affecting the day to day operation of a safe and reliable network. At this point in time we are considering all options and no firm decisions have been made.
JT: Are you confident that NR can effectively implement the Shaw Report's recommendations while also delivering major projects such as CP5, the asset sale programme and the digital railway?
MC: We're absolutely focused on delivering the Railway Upgrade Plan, which will deliver a bigger, better railway with longer, faster trains – and more of them − plus more reliable infrastructure and better facilities for passengers, especially at stations.

I had the opportunity to read Bethany Chase's new book THE ONE THAT GOT AWAY and am thrilled to be part of her share a review with you.
Here's the synopsis from Goodreads:
Sarina Mahler thinks she has her life all nailed down: a growing architecture practice in Austin, Texas, and an any-day-now proposal from her loving boyfriend, Noah. She's well on her way to having the family she's hoped for since her mother's death ten years ago. But with Noah on a temporary assignment abroad and retired Olympic swimmer — and former flame — Eamon Roy back in town asking her to renovate his new fixer-upper, Sarina's life takes an unexpected turn.
Eamon proves to be Sarina's dream client, someone who instinctively trusts every one of her choices — and Sarina is reminded of all the reasons she was first drawn to him back in the day. Suddenly her carefully planned future with Noah seems a little less than perfect. And when tragedy strikes, Sarina is left reeling. With her world completely upended, she is forced to question what she truly wants in life — and in love.Now, I have to throw this out. I was a little thrown at first with the initial tone. I liked the characters, there is a hilarious banter as friends are preparing for a wedding, but based on the title and the description, I was expecting a tone that was a little more somber.
However, it didn't take me long to be pulled into the story, enjoying the way the relationship between Sarina and her roommate, old flame and boyfriend all unfolded. I groaned with her during the interactions she has with the couple who will be her in-laws, and appreciated her uncertainty when Eamon showed up.
But beyond that, I felt for Sarina. As the story progressed, I longed to sit beside her, listen to her think out loud. Chase did a superb job of making Sarina's decisions realistic because of their difficulty, and the pacing and tension were precise.
And honestly, I loved it.

Hypertonic Saline-hetastarch in Cardiac Surgery (HH)

Detailed Description:
Cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB) is associated with increased fluid extravasation and edema formation. A continuous infusion of a mixture of hypertonic saline/hydroxyethyl starch (HSH)during CPB reduced fluid extravasation and total fluid gain during bypass in an animal model. We hypothesize that a continuous infusion of HSH will reduce fluid load and increase hemodynamic and respiratory functions in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass with CPB.
|Postoperative Cardiorespiratory Failure
|Drug: Hypertonic saline (7.2%) hetastarch (6 %)(200/0.5)
|Phase 4
|Study Type:
|Study Design:
|Allocation: Randomized
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: Double
Primary Purpose: Prevention
|Official Title:
|Infusion of Hypertonic Saline-hetastarch in Cardiac Surgery
Further study details as provided by Haukeland University Hospital:
Primary Outcome Measures:
- Cardiac output, intrathoracic blood volume, extravascular lung water, global enddiastolic volume [ Time Frame: 12 hours ]
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Time to extubation, fluid balance, paO2/FiO2- ratio, frequency of atrial fibrillation, cytokines, time to ICU-release and hospital release.
|Study Start Date:
|April 2007
|Study Completion Date:

|Primary Completion Date:
|May 2008 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is associated with fluid overload and edema formation occasionally resulting in vital organ dysfunction affecting heart, respiratory system , gastrointestinal tract and brain. Hyperosmolar/hyperoncotic preparations (HSH/HSD) have been used in cardiac surgery essentially with the aim to mobilize fluid excess and improve postoperative cardiorespiratory function.Most studies dealing with the administration of HSD or HSH during and after CPB, have used protocols recommended for treatment of severe hypovolemia and shock, that is 4 mL/kg as a bolus, given within minutes.In animal experiments we have used HSD or HSH, 1 mL/kg/h to a total dose of 4 mL/kg during CPB. The use of HSH/HSD reduced the total fluid gain about 50 % and resulted in significantly lower content of tissue water in vital organs as heart and lungs. In the actual clinical trial we hypothesize that a continuous infusion of HSH will reduce fluid load and increase hemodynamic and respiratory functions monitored with the PiCCO system in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass with CPB.

Several months out from his July 9th rematch with Nate Diaz, Conor McGregor has tweeted that he's decided to hang up the gloves…Is the UFC's featherweight champ just trolling the masses? Yes. He probably is.
On Tuesday, the following post appeared on McGregor's Twitter feed:
I have decided to retire young.
Thanks for the cheese.
Catch ya's later.
— Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA) April 19, 2016
Of course, since McGregor reportedly campaigned hard,and then some, for a rematch with Diaz, the chances of the comments above being true are slim. McGregor was submitted by Diaz at UFC 196 last month, in a contest that took place at 170 pounds. Their UFC 200 rematch is also set to take place at welterweight.

On Tuesday October 28th, 2014 The Bulimia Anorexia Nervosa Association, commonly referred to as BANA had the pleasure of attending the open house at the Aids Committee of Windsor. Two BANA staff members along with three social work student interns were given a tour of the agency and provided with information about the services that the Aids Committee of Windsor provides. Some of the services provided at the Aids Committee of Windsor include HIV testing and education, African Caribbean and Black Community Outreach program, Gay MSM Sexual Health Program, Young & Proud and Open House, and Harm Reduction to name a few. Anonymous HIV Testing is available at the AIDS Committee the first and last Wed of every month from 4-7pm.
Our exploration of agencies did not stop with the Aids Committee of Windsor. We also had the opportunity to stop at Windsor Pride and get information on their programs such as Run for Rocky and Windsor Essex Pride Fest. A part of Windsor Pride's mission is to educate and increase public awareness and understanding of the diversity of biological sex, gender, identity and sexual orientation, and the agency staff certainly met their mission when it came to educating us.
It was a great opportunity for us as Social Work Interns to connect with community agency and learn more about the services available within our area, and we are very thankful to the Aids Committee of Windsor and Windsor Pride to educating us on the services they provide.
A special thank you to Colm Holmes and Bob Williams for the tours.
Additional information about the services the Aids Committee of Windsor provides can be found on their website http://www.aidswindsor.org/ , and information on Windsor Pride can be found at http://www.windsorpride.com/ .

Flower Mound, Texas (PressExposure) July 08, 2011 -- In lean times, consumers expect a lot more bang for their buck - especially when it comes to the clothes they buy. A new website is giving customers the chance to not only look great for an affordable price, but also help build housing for families around the world. Visit SheltertheWorld's Shop for a Cause store to purchase tote bags, T-shirts, polo shirts, caps and other branded merchandise. All profits go towards advocating change for the 1.5 billion people across the globe without adequate housing.
The stylish SheltertheWorld tees are available in white and black colors, made from top brands American Apparel and Gildan. For off-the-clock executives, Shelter The World offers premium Cutter & Buck golf shirts. The site's hottest accessories are the eco-friendly canvas tote-bag and the rubber wristbands.
"If you're going to spend $25 on a T-shirt, why not make a difference?" said Rich Grabowski, CEO of IADDIC Shelters and Flower Mound, Texas resident. Rich and his wife Suzan launched the ShelterTheWorld.net website 2 months ago and have raised more than $10,000 for housing those in need. "People know a problem exists but are not aware folks are working diligently to help solve the problem," Rich stated. "For the price of a new home in America, we can build 145 houses in Guatemala and change lives forever."
The problem is major. According to the United Nations, for every 5 people on this planet, 1 doesn't have a suitable home. These poor people fashion houses out of twigs, tarp, mud, plastic or other unsuitable materials and live in utter poverty. Every day 86,000 people join the ranks of the houseless. From Mexico, Venezuela, Colombia and Peru to Nigeria, Iraq, South Africa and Egypt - millions live in despair and thousands die of heatstroke, dehydration and exposure to elements due to lack of shelter.
The goal of ShelterTheWorld.net Shop for a Cause store is to provide the resources to advance the mission of educating and informing those of us who can make a difference that the problem is overwhelming and needs to be addressed.

Plame's Book Faults Bush, Journalists
Wednesday, October 17, 2007; 6:00 PM
WASHINGTON -- Four years after her CIA cover was blown in a newspaper column, Valerie Plame is settling scores with the Bush administration, Republican lawmakers and the journalists involved in the White House leak scandal.
Plame writes about the leak, the fallout and the perjury trial of former White House aide I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby in her memoir, "Fair Game: My Life as a Spy, My Betrayal by the White House." The book is to be released Tuesday.
She offers harsh words for President Bush, whom she assails for administration "arrogance and intolerance." She also said criticism of her husband, former Ambassador Joseph Wilson, was a "dress rehearsal" for the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth effort that impugned Sen. John Kerry's war record during his failed presidential campaign in 2004.
"It was classic Karl Rove: go after your enemy's strong point," Plame writes, saying Bush's former political adviser was behind both efforts. "In Joe's case it was that he told the truth; in Kerry's case, it was his exemplary military service."
Plame often casts herself as a spectator to the scandal. She discusses being uncomfortable in the limelight, even as she poses for magazine photographs, attends posh Washington fundraisers and is whisked backstage at a rock concert as her husband becomes one of the Iraq war's most public critics.
She describes arriving home one day to find Vanity Fair photographers in her kitchen preparing a photo for the magazine's cover.
"I did not listen to my instincts and threw my extreme caution about public exposure to the wind," she wrote. "In no time, the beauty team had me made up."
Plame began attracting attention after syndicated columnist Robert Novak revealed her identity in 2003 in a story about Wilson's CIA-sponsored trip to Niger.
"I felt like I had been sucker-punched, hard, in the gut," Plame said, recalling reading Novak's column.
Wilson said the Niger trip debunked some prewar intelligence about Iraq's nuclear ambitions, yet the intelligence still found its way into Bush's State of the Union address that year. Plame believes she was outed as retribution for her husband's comments.
Numerous behind-the-scenes details of the leak surfaced at Libby's trial and Plame cannot fill in many blanks. At least four Bush administration officials discussed Plame's identity with reporters _ Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage, White House Press Secretary Ari Fleischer, Rove and Libby _ but have said little about it publicly.
Libby is the only person charged in the case and was convicted not of leaking but of lying and obstructing the probe. Plame recalls that her husband had convinced himself Rove would be charged and she writes of being "puzzled and angry" upon learning he wouldn't be.

Weekly instruction in social skills is provided for all students by a speech language pathologist alongside the classroom teacher. Generalization is extremely important and students are provided every opportunity to practice learned skills in a variety of environments. Our mission is to build a safe, respectful and responsible community.
Our curriculum is based upon the Massachusetts Curriculum Frameworks and Common Core requirements. Students receive instruction in literacy, math, language and writing, content areas such as science or social studies with a focus on functionality of skills. We have a variety of curricula to address all students' needs. The curriculum utilizes a teaching approach based on the principles of Direct Instruction, task analysis, integrated therapy techniques and hands on experiences. Some of our students are ready to participate in more typical classroom curriculum and that is readily available to all students.

The one you had problems with (the Belkin F1DK102P) click here) supports only upto 65Hz.
This one, the
Belkin F1DB102P, supports upto 85Hz click here (I think you'll need to buy the cables separately though).
So, in theory, you should be OK if you go for one that supports the frequency at which you run your monitor.
If you require one for speakers too, you'll need one with audio support. G
