Where would you visit in France to include some nice leisurely bike rides, 15 miles per day good enough for us. We don't mean mountain bikes just low traffic roads or nice paths. Our travel time will be a period of 9 days, yet to be determined, but it will be somewhere in June - Sept. We will start vacation in Paris and then venture out somewhere....staying in one region. We will rent bike when we get to location out of Paris. Will probably rent a car to travel around. Thanks so much

France which area would be good for bike riding?
Report Abuse
I have bicycled the Loire and it is lovely--wineries to visit, chateaus, etc. AND flat.
Report Abuse
I have biked literally all over the Hexagon, as France is often called and IMO you cannot go wrong BUT
weather can be much worse in the north - from Loire up - even in summer it can be cooler and rainier than you may expect (or it could be gorgeous too)
and there seem to be few flat areas in France so chose terrain well or bike along rivers (but not along the Loire as though the Loire is a good biking venue the roads along the Loire itself are often traffic-plagued truck thoroughfares
Buy a Micheli map and stick to roads in yellow and 'D' or departmental roads which usually are great biking roads - little traveled and well paved (nearly no dirt roads in France)
For mix of nice weather and interesting places and a gentle terraine I'd consider Burgundy and the Burgundy wine areas, dotted by cute small towns and ornate wine houses.
But in summer in the south it can get too hot as well.

We went on a Backroads trip to the Loire valley a few years ago and chose it because of fewer hills. The weather in June was perfect and the food, accommodations, etc were great. However I can't speak to the traffic because we followed the Backroads maps that led us on wonderful little streets with few cars. We have also cycled in Provence and most recently in the Dordogne. Provence was beautiful but seemed to have a bit more traffic than the Dordogne (but it could have been where we were staying) - and things were a bit more "spread out". We absolutely cycling in the Dordogne region and found that we could use bicycles as our mode of transportation and get to many sights (castles, river, etc) from our headquarter location while on back roads with little traffic (we stayed near the small village of Daglan). The Dordogne is, however, a bit more difficult to access from Paris than Burgundy or the Loire valley (but worth it in our opinion!!)

Thank you for your nice replies. I will write down your suggestions and do more research from there!

I agree with PalenQ that most places in France are great for biking but DO be aware of weather. We were in Loire Valley & Paris in July & August last summer & it was mostly freezing with lots of rain! Often felt like November. That said, the south of France was divine weather & riding along the canals there is fun. Think south if you want good weather.
We LOVED biking around St Emilion in Bordeaux that you might want to look into as it's exactly what you are asking for. Idyllic & easy/safe enough for our young child & a chubby senior mom.

The Dordogne is pretty hilly, and many of the roads are tortuous. I always worry when I'm driving on the D roads there and see bikers. And the Loire scenery is a bit ho-hum compared to many places in France. I think if I were a biker (and I'm not) I would enjoy biking along the Atlantic coast near La Rochelle and going out to explore one of the islands. Maybe a bit inland to the Cognac area as well. Fairly flat, a lot prettier than the Loire, and varied scenery.

Ile de re is lovely but too small for your plans, Alsace is very good with lots of official paths and some canal routes, La Loire ok but Le Loir (just to the North) is much quieter and one of my favorite, I've not done it but the whole zone down towards Biaritz is flat, then you could cycle around Bordeaux, lots of sub choices, ride down to the big sea inlet, or into the wine area. There are some 4 designated bike paths and the back roads are relatively quiet. Apart from the Biaritz one I've done these all and would recommend them for flatness and short distances between villages.

We've done some cycling in Alsace, burgundy and Normandy/Brittany.
Alsace is great with lots of dedicated paths, light traffic, cute villages. Likewise for Burgundy.
We spent more time on larger roads in Normandy/Brittany and except for the wet weather, it was pretty nice cycling as well.
The Dordogne is beautiful--the cycling looks like it could get a little dicey there though. Saw very few cyclists.
Ditto for Corsica...kind of scarey in fact.
One thing I have done for ideas is go to bike tour company websites like backroads, vbt, randonnee, etc. just to see what itineraries they use.
I also have a lonely planet book "cycling France" that has good route maps, tips, etc.
BikeToursDirect.com has some pretty good deals on self-guided trips with bike rentals if that interests you.

an option in places like the Loire Valley is to avail yourself of hotels that provide bikes and also services that just port your luggage from one hotel to the next so you bike without any luggage.

I've got some thoughts on Brittany, since it's one of my favorite regions. First, it is a very large area and the topography varies. I understood it to mean from your post that you are making days trips on your bike and returning to a home base each night. This as opposed to biking to a new location each day, either with your luggage or having it transported for you. It sounds like you are looking for low stress, relaxing rides without a lot of hills. A very picturesque and relatively flat area in Brittany is around the Gulf of Morbihan, in the far south/west of Brittany. Rather than describe it with a lot of words let me give you a link to a trip report I wrote about my week vacation in the area this summer. There are hundreds of photos so you can see with your own eyes what the topography is like.
Let me just a give you a couple of tips about biking in France in general. You can do it with just a Michelin map if you are the kind of person who is comfortable with maps. With a little research you can also find out about various bike paths that keep you off the roads. I bike in the countryside often just using a Michelin map (staying on the small white roads with an occasional yellow road) because the traffic in the country is so light. If you know how to read the gradient arrows on the map this will indicate the percent gradient. For instance, one gradient arrow super-imposed on a road indicates a gradient of 5% to 9%. Two arrows means a gradient of 9%-13% and three arrows 13% or greater. Just because there are no gradient arrows doesn't mean there are no hills. Often if a road on a map twists and turns a lot this is an indication of hills.
You can tell if a region you are contemplating will be good for biking by studying your map and looking for the gradient arrows. Also, the Michelin maps have icons for all kinds of historic and touristic attractions such as churches, abbeys, ruins, châteaux, caves, scenic viewpoints and especially designated scenic roads (plus many others). Areas shaded in green are generally hilly and/or forested and white areas generally open. If you plan a route incorporating some of the icons shown on the map with perhaps some designated scenic roads and avoid gradient arrows I bet you'll find pretty good rides no matter what region you are in. In choosing a town to cycle through I find one of the best icons to look for is the historic church icon. This usually means a church dating from the 11th to 14th centuries which usually means there are other old buildings which usually means a charming village. There may not be a lot to see but that's not the point. It's the charm of small town country life where you are the only tourist and it is often quite beautiful. I know because I ride like this all the time. And keep an eye out for the châteaux icon too.
Back to Brittany for a few more tips. I was just looking at my map of some of my favorite parts of that region. The northern coast known as The Pink Granite Coast (Côte de Granit Rose) is often called the most beautiful coastline in Brittany and it is an area I love. I've never biked there but I've been by car so I know the area and the map is not showing an abundance of gradient arrows. I know there are hills but no killers. If you look at your map you should focus on the northern coast between the town of Trégastel in the west and the town of Paimpol in the east. You could have several days of biking enjoyment in this region, as you could in the Gulf of Morbihan. Hope this helps.

Wow what great advice, thanks for taking the time to share your experience.

Le Loir (not to be confused with La Loire) is a lovely region worth exploring.
It also dips into the western part of the Loire Valley around Angers, which we like a lot better than the central area (Amboise, etc) and summer weather there is usually cooperative. Traffic around Le Loir is a lot lighter than in the central Loire Valley as well. The terrain is flat-ish - some gentle hills, but nothing arduous.
Report Abuse
Yes, the Loir (not the Loire) is nice also. You would probably like the area just west of Vendôme that is along or near the river. All the way from Vendôme in the east to Château du Loir in the west you'll notice the Michelin map is loaded with all kinds of icons that I just mentioned, with almost no gradient arrows.

Not sure how you are progressing on your bike trip planning, so hope that this information will be helpful! France is in the midst of a major expansion of safe, car-free or very limited traffic bike trails. In the last 5 years, the French government has spent millions of Euros to develop a new generation of safe bike paths for recreational cyclists. The result of this effort is over 3,000km of safe, well-marked bike routes on small country lanes, or on totally car-free cycle paths. Burgundy alone now has over 800km of totally car free or very limited(less than 300 cars/day)bike paths.
So while there are a number of different alternatives you might want to consider, I would recommend two. My first suggestion is biking along the Loire River and its tributaries. In less than 2 hours, you can go from Paris to Anger on the TGV. From the moment you get off the train, you will see how bike-friendly this region of France is, as there are signs right in the train station directing you to the Loire. Major cities along the Loire are on the train line, thus making it easy to spend time in the western Loire, then hop the train to Amboise or Blois, to explore that area. You could also travel from Paris to Blois where you can access 13 different biking itineraries including the chateaux of Chambord and Cheverny. A map for these itineraries can be found at http://www.bloispaysdechambord.com/en. Go to the downloads page and look for "La Carte des Chateaux a Velo."
The best overall resource for biking along the Loire can be found at: http://www.cycling-loire.com. This website is run by the La Loire a Velo organization and is currently the top resource for biking in this region. It is full of trip planning ideas, resources, and information on the route itself. Loire a Velo has bike rental companies, tour companies and hotels and restaurants that have earned the right to be recommended by the organization, so you can feel comfortable with any of their recommendations.
Unless you go to France in August, you can easily choose your lodging as you go. This gives you great flexibility, allowing you to linger longer at attractions, have a second cup of coffee along the road in the morning, and in general, relax and enjoy France. With very rare exception, this route is pretty flat, another reason that it is so popular.
My second suggestion for you would be biking in Burgundy. As mentioned earlier, Burgundy has more than 800km of car-free and low traffic routes along quiet country lanes. The best resource for biking in Burgundy can be found at: http://www.burgundy-by-bike.com. This is the website of the Burgundy Regional Tourism Office and is a wealth of information on biking in Burgundy. There are 5 different bike itineraries: Southern Burgundy, the Canal du Centre, the Nivernais Canal, the Burgundy Canal, and the Vineyard Way. Should you choose this alternative, your biggest problem will be which itinerary to choose! Depending on which itinerary you choose, you could take the train from Paris to either Dijon or Beaune, a 2 1/2 or 3 hour train ride.
I highly suggest that you consider starting in Beaune, where you can rent bikes from Detours in France (http://www.detours-in-france.com), located just a short walk from the train station. Spend at least one or two nights in Beaune and then head south to the Vineyard Trail. My husband and I spent three days along the Vineyard Trail last summer, savoring every moment, every village, every wine tasting along the way. You can travel this route by car in under 30 minutes, but you will never experience it the way that we did on bikes. From the end of the Vineyard Trail in Santenay you can join the Canal du Centre route to the pretty city of Chalon-sur-Saone. From here you can pick up the Southern Burgundy route, which is totally car free, and go as far as you want, possibly to the Benedictine Monestary at Cluny. Then you can take the train back to Beaune.
I don't know how you are going to choose which area to visit! Every year I have the hardest time narrowing down which area in France to visit. In the event that you would like to read more about my adventures biking in France, visit http://www.experiencefrancebybike.com.
I'd love to hear what you finally decide to do!

I will recommend a couple of areas, both featuring unique architecture, peaceful rural villages, and a gentle rolling landscape.
First, La Thierache, which is a micro-region of about 60 villages northeast of Laon that features a collection of fortified churches. Each one is a unique and charming mixture of red brick and stone. The red brick villages are peaceful and lovely. Some of the churches are open most of the time, but for some you have to ask once you are in the village for who has the key.
The other route is 'les enclos parroisses' in Brittany. The parish enclosures are another unique cultural relic with several ecclesiastical structures made of gray stone within a walled enclosure.

About biking in Brittany, you could also consider the way from Rennes to Saint Malo, through the towns of Dinan and Dinard, along the Ille&Rance canal.

High Definition used to be the end all be all. You were the envy of your friends when you told them you just got the new HDTV. Your peers were green with jealousy as you casually told them about the camera you just bought that was capable of Hi-Def. Yes, those were the good old days.
Then came 2012.
Though rumored for a long time, that was the year 4K struck the world. 1080? Pssh, no one wanted that anymore. 4K has more clarity, more detail, more…everything! Still today, shooting 4K seems the way to go. Everyone wants a 4K video. To be at the cutting edge is the only way to be.
But, and this may smack of heresy to some, 4K isn't always the best bet.
Most people won't be able to view 4K in it's natural resolution. It takes the newest TV or video monitor to show it in its proper form. Very few have the proper equipment to view it correctly. It would be like forcing a purebred racehorse to pull a farming plow. Yes, it'll get the job done. It'll even be sort of impressive pulling on the yoke. But that horse's potential is being squandered. Instead of galloping around the track in an equine blur, it;s plodding along slowly to till a field. If the end product isn't going to be seen using the proper tools, most obviously an internet video, then stay away from 4K.
Also keep in mind that 4K is much more expensive. Though the cameras are cheaper and more accessible now than they ever were, you're still going to drop thousands of dollars to be able to film in 4K. Then you have to make sure your equipment can handle the larger format. You'll need faster graphics cards and more ram and lots, lots more memory. Just moving the files takes longer than it did before. Everything is going to slow down in the pipeline, and though it is a cliché it holds true: time equals money.
So keep all this in mind when thinking about 4K. It is glorious and wonderful, but isn't always the answer you're looking for. It's not the industry standard yet, so be intelligent and pick the proper format for your next project.

Journal of Nanoparticle Research | Year: 2015
Nanoparticles have been proposed for several biomedical applications due to their potential as drug carriers, diagnostic and therapeutic agents. However, only a few of them have been approved for their use in humans. In order to gauge the potential applicability of a specific type of nanoparticle, in vivo biodistribution studies to characterize their pharmacokinetic properties are essential. In this regard, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (30–130 nm) have been functionalized with amino groups in order to react with N-succinimidyl 4-[18F]fluorobenzoate and thus anchor the 18F positron emission isotope by using a novel and easy labelling strategy. In vivo biodistribution was characterized in mice after intravenous administration of radiolabelled nanoparticles by positron emission tomography. Our results indicated that radiolabelled mesoporous silica nanoparticles were excreted into bile and urine and accumulated mainly in the organs of the reticuloendothelial system and lungs. © 2015, Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.

Black Friday
Black Friday is one the biggest shopping days of the year in the United States – and it has become increasingly popular since the concept spread to Britain around four years ago. The Black Friday frenzy is a boost for retailers such as Amazon, who are hosting a two-week sales event this year, Black Friday but it also means chaos in stores and supermarkets on the Black Friday on 25 November.
What is Black Friday
The Black Friday After Thanksgiving (Friday) is known as Black Friday. This also is unofficially or officially start of holiday shopping season. Almost all stores come out with Doorbuster Sales with early bird special to attract consumers to their stores. People stand in line hours before store is opened, to grab the bargain of the year. Almost every store has something that interests every one. For bargain hunters, if there is a biggest festival in a year, that would be, no doubt, the Black Friday.
In last few years(starting from 2013 to be precise),Black Friday Sales have started way before Friday-with some stores starting their Black Friday sales on Thanksgiving day & some even starting on Wednesday. It would not be surprising to see Black Friday sale starting from Monday on that week. Therefore, revenue wise this is NOT the best day for stores.Biggest sales day now include Thanksgiving day, Green Monday and Cyber Monday.
Black Friday Facts
Black Friday was once called "Big Friday"
According to a 1975 report from the NY Times, the term "Black Friday" is Philadelphia slang. This is because the police had become frustrated with the traffic congestion caused by shoppers on that day, and the retailers weren't happy to be associated with traffic and smog. So, in 1961, one newspaper tried to rename the day as "Big Friday", but, as you already know, this term didn't stick around long. Though it had been popular in Philadelphia, "Black Friday" was not an official national term until the 1990's.
Holiday shoppers indirectly determined the date for Thanksgiving
From the mid-19th to the early 20th century, the US president would declare a "day of giving thanks" on the last Thursday in November. This changed in 1939 when the last Thursday was the last day in the month. Retailers were afraid that the holiday season would be shortened and therefore, petitioned the president to declare the holiday be held one week earlier. In 1941, Congress created a joint resolution to clear things up. After that, Thanksgiving was always celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November, which gave shoppers one extra week to shop before Christmas.
Black Friday has spread to over 15 countries in the world
For many years, Canadian retailers would worry when their customers went into the States on Black Friday in search for great deals, which forced them to start their own Black Friday deals, since then, various other places in the world have taken on this tradition including the UK, Brazil, India, France, Norway and many more.
Black Friday wasn't officially claimed to be the busiest shopping day of the year, until 2001
Black Friday was thought of as being the biggest shopping day of the year, however, it was actually the Saturday before Christmas that beat it every year until 2001.
In 2011, Walmart broke the tradition of Black Friday
The tradition of Black Friday was broken when Wallmart opened up their store on the evening of Thanksgiving. Since that time, the retailers are engaged in a race against the clock to catch up with the times. These days, 33 million Americans plan to run out shopping as soon as they finish their Thanksgiving feast. This is known as Grey Thursday.
In the 1800's, the term "Black Friday" was used in reference to the stock market crashes
The term was used for the first time on 24th September 1869 when James Fisk and Jay Gould were trying to corner the gold market on the NYSE. The Black Friday However, the government stepped in and flooded the market with gold, causing prices to fall and many investors to lose their fortunes.

The Human Rights Law Centre actively encourages the participation of students in its work: we believe that students play an important role in our activities and can gain vital experience of human rights work to complement their studies.
Opportunities include project-led student research assistance and internships, group-based event organisation such as the Annual Student Human Rights Conference and the Human Rights Film Series, or ad-hoc event support.
Each role is advertised at the start of the academic year and students are recruited following a competitive application process.
Students are awarded with a certificate following completion of their relevant activity. Bursaries are also offered to students to provide financial support for external internships. To find out more about the Student Activities Unit, please see About the Centre.
The Annual Student Human Rights Conference is one of the longest running Human Rights Conferences that is run by students. Held each spring it is organised by a student committee with the support of the Human Rights Law Centre on a current challenge facing the practice of human rights law. Leading experts and practitioners are invited to give keynote speeches alongside panels of student researchers, on topics set by the Conference Committee. While organised by students, the conference is a lively event, open to all and typically attended by other students, researchers and NGOs from Europe, Asia, Oceania and the Americas. You can find out more about HRLC's upcoming student conference, on the Annual Student Human Rights Conference page.
The Human Rights Film Series is a student-led initiative, which was started in 2006 by two LLM students. Now a hugely popular and regular campus event, the Film Series shows engaging and provocative films which bring challenging human rights issues to life. The context of each film is briefly introduced by a relevant expert while an optional discussion is held after the film. Screenings are organised by a student committee with the support of the Human Rights Law Centre and are free and open to the community. To find out more about upcoming screenings and a catalogue of previous films, see the Human Rights Film Series page.
We offer paid summer internships to University of Nottingham students to work on our diverse projects. Internships typically run for two to three months to complete a discreet research or project component, providing valued and in-depth experience and exposure to world-class research and project activities. The Human Rights Law Centre also offers bursaries for University of Nottingham Law Students to assist them in financing a placement at a relevant human rights organisation. Find out more about our internships and bursaries.
We actively encourage students to get involved with our research, knowledge transfer, training and capacity building activities through Student Assistant (SA) positions. Such roles provide our students with vital experience and exposure to the research and organisation of world-class projects and high profile events, working closely with our experts and research staff. SA positions typically run for the academic year although short-term positions are also available. Positions are advertised in advance of the academic year and there is a competitive application process. Presentations on the Human Rights Law Centre and the SA opportunities available are made during the induction week of the LLM calendar. Find out more about Student Assistants.
Each month the Human Rights Law Centre hosts a lunchtime briefing by one of The University of Nottingham School of Law PhD candidates on human rights related aspects of their research. Occasionally, external experts are invited to deliver a presentation on specific topics of interest for the research community. The briefings are open to all PhD law students and provide an opportunity to discuss and analyse current debates, as well as recent developments and case law in international human rights law.
For details of current opportunities, and previous roles, please see our current opportunities page.

Rwanda needs to take new measures to restore and preserve its international cash reserves, which have come under intense pressure in recent months, increasing the country's exposure to financial turbulence.
While definite figures of the current state of reserves are not readily available, the International Monetary Fund estimates the current level of reserves cover at 3.5-4 months of imports -- the number of months of imports its reserves can pay for.
Although the reserves are still above the IMF's critical threshold of three months of import cover, there is concern that if the country's import bill continues to rise faster than export receipts, this will add pressure on the country's reserves.
"The trend has been downward for the past few years, partly related to the decline in foreign aid," said Thomas Alun, the IMF resident representative to Rwanda. "Our preference is for the central bank not to lower the import cover below this. On the other hand, to maintain a comfortable growth rate and help grease the economy, there is still some room for foreign exchange sales from the central bank."
A combination of lower commodity prices for its major exports especially minerals, a depreciating currency due to the strengthening of the US dollar, coupled with a persistently high import bill that outpaces revenues generated from exports has drastically impacted the country's international reserves.
In the first half of 2015, exports decreased by 6.2 per cent in value to $275.28 million, compared with $293.61 million in the first half of 2014, mainly due to the poor performance recorded by the mining sector, which shrank by 31.3 per cent.
Yet in the first 11 months of 2015, formal imports decreased by only 2.6 per cent in value $2,144.14 million from $2,202.02 million after an increase of 8.1 per cent in the same period of 2014.
"Looking ahead, the prospects for reserves are not very promising and there is a need for some exchange rate adjustment," said Mr Alun H. "The government also has to help to rein in some import demand through expenditure restraint since the public sector is a big part of the economy and demands a lot of imports."
The rationale for policy adjustment, he argued, is to facilitate a "smooth landing."
"This outcome is preferred over a situation in which the government and central bank suddenly realise that the forex coffers are at critical levels and the economy has to adjust abruptly to remain afloat," he said.
By mid January, the Rwanda franc had depreciated 7.2 per cent against the US dollar, trading at Rwf746.50 per dollar from Rwf694.37 at the end December 2014.
Rwanda's growth in 2015 was slightly stronger than expected, ranging from 6.5-7 per cent and inflation remained contained and far below the regional average of 4.5 per cent as at December.

Any way to auto switch power plans when plugging in to charger?
The software comes with PC optimization mode with standard,economy and turbo mode.
It automatically switches to economy mode when running on battery and is restored to normal mode when running on ac supply.It changes its mode automatically based on power supply.
It also consists of turbo mode which is efficient for gaming.

let me try to be clear:
when on battery, I want 'Balanced" plan with all my custom settings [already done]
when I plug into AC Adapter I want windows 7 to automatically switch to "High Performance" plan [which I have setup, but I have to manually change over from Balanced to High Performance]
my understanding is that high performance features such as the use of overclock/turbo settings are not available in "balanced" or the "power saving" defaults. but I could be wrong... wouldn't be the first time

I believe the Balanced power settings are best all around let windows manage the settings that's why balanced is there

A workaround
I'll just throw this in. It's not a perfect solution but it's possible to change power plans just by running any process that you care to define.
This screenshot shows the Power Plan changing when EmEditor is run then being restored to the original Power Plan when the process stops.
I can't figure out if any additional process runs when a charger is plugged in - or at least I couldn't track one down on my machine.
|My System Specs

For example you can configure the high performance mode to be super power saving if you wanted. The actual plans are just setting profiles to quickly change as the need arised.

The beginning of the Bob Hoffman era at Mercer exceeded all expectations. Three games into the 2008-09 season, the Bears were 3-0 with victories over Alabama and Auburn. And when Mercer built an 18-point lead in the second half against Georgia Tech, 4-0 seemed to be a certainty.

The round was considered powerful for the day, producing a muzzle energy of between 330 and 430 ft·lbf (450 and 580 J) depending on the loading. A number of small changes to the Mars and the cartridge were made and the pistol that eventuated was called the Bergmann-Bayard 1903. This pistol was adopted by the Spanish army in 1905 as the Pistola Bergmann de 9 mm. modelo 1903. Unable to find a German manufacturer to complete the Spanish order for 3000 pistols, Theodor Bergmann turned to a Belgian manufacturer, Anciens Etablissements Pieper (who used the trademark "Bayard") to complete the order. The final pistol, modified by AEP, was known as the Bergmann Bayard 1908, or in Spain as the Pistola Bergmann de 9 mm. modelo 1908. Although adopted in 1908 first deliveries did not take place until two years later. Meanwhile other manufacturers such as Campo-Giro had adopted the 9mm Bergmann-Bayard round and, due to its long history of use in Spanish submachine guns, carbines and pistols, today it is most commonly known as the 9mm Largo. At the same time the Bergmann-Bayard model 1910 semi-automatic pistol was adopted by the Danish military and remained in production until 1935. Left to right: 9×23mm Largo, 9×19mm Parabellum, 9x23mm Winchester, and 9×23mm Steyr. The cartridge headspaces on the mouth of the case.[1] With 125 gr (8.1 g; 0.29 oz) jacketed projectiles, the muzzle energy is 336 foot pounds, slightly lower than a standard-pressure 9mm Luger. Compared to the 9mm Luger +P, performance is also lower but at lower pressure in the 9×23mm Largo. While external dimensions are almost identical, the 9×23mm Largo is a very different cartridge from the modern, high-performance 9×23mm Winchester. Firing the thicker-walled 9×23mm Winchester round in a 9×23mm Largo pistol is dangerous, as old 9mm Largo pistols cannot handle the pressure generated by the 9×23mm Winchester. Performance is similar to the contemporary 9×23mm Steyr, but the cartridges were developed independently and their dimensions are just different enough to render them non-interchangeable. next a, etrade. t, Fit: Ir I ... +3 Views: 1185 Submitted: 07/23/2014 Facebook Twitter Google+ Tumblr Pinterest Unblock User's Content Block User's Content

Posted 6/25/2008 1:01 PM (GMT -7)
I couldn't figure out how to add to the other page, so I guess I started a new one. I came to this site because I really need support. I am 25 years old and have been married for 6 years. I was 19 and he was 25 when we got married. Over the course of our marriage, we have had so many upheavals and it's a miracle that our marriage is still together. I didn't know that he was bipolar when we got married, and maybe it hadn't developed yet, but he has become a completely different person. I know I've changed, too, as I have become hopeless and jaded at times. I really try to remain hopeful and positive, but sometimes I fall apart. This is one of those times for me. about
3 years ago I found out that he got fired from his job because he outright asked some customers if they wanted to have sex. They obviously said no, so nothing ever happened. He told me about
it a few days later and I fell apart at my very core. My world came crashing down around me and God was the only one who could help me. At that time, we didn't know he was bipolar. He told those closest to us what had happened I think as a way of punishing himself. I blamed myself and we moved on. I was trying to put things back together and there's so much more that happened in between, but then a few months ago my brother got divorced in a really heart-breaking situation. We were all distraught except for my husband who seemed very flippant about
it and said maybe we should get divorced, too. At this time he was completely volatile and I never knew what he was going to do or say. I felt like I was going crazy. Then it turns out he wrote a "love-letter" email to my ex-sister-in-law confessing his extreme attraction to her, etc. Me and her had been friends for a long time, even before she married my brother. She told me about
it. My husband acted like he hadn't done anything wrong, it was perfectly natural in his opinion that he would feel that way. I understand being attracted to someone, but acting on it in that way especially considering the situation? He didn't care about
our relationship he said and couldn't care less what I did or didn't do. I moved out for 3 months, then I felt like I wasn't ready to throw in the towel yet. I wasn't joking around when I took my vows. I've been back for about
three months now. He was diagnosed bipolar and is on medication. I feel extremely depressed right now. I'm 25 and I feel like my life is over. I feel like I made a grave mistake when I got married, although I prayed so much before-hand that I was making the right decision. I hate coming home. There is such a cloud of doom hanging over us. We are alienated from my family because he refuses to apologize to my brother. I feel isolated, alone, and hopeless. I feel that I've lived so many lifetimes at such a young age. I have given up hope of ever pursuing my dreams or finding joy again. I can distract myself throughout the day with work, etc., but at the end of the day I have to come back to my hopeless situation. And I still love him. And I feel so sorry for him. I guess I've said enough, but if anyone has any words of encouragement they would be much appreciated.

Dear Rachel
Your husband is lucky to have such a loyal and loving woman in his life. You are very special to be giving this another try, despite what difficulties it is putting you through.
Continue to support him as long as he's making an effort to be well but please put your own mental health first - or you can't do him any good.
My husband would agree with you that being married to a person with bipolar disorder is not easy.
Take care.

Welcome to HealingWell and to our board. I hope we can offer the support you are looking for here.
It sounds like your marriage is in very serious trouble and the only thing holding it together right now is your will. Would you say that was true? Bipolars, unmedicated and manic can do some truly awful things, and I'm sorry you've had to live through a few of them. That you stay with him is a testament to your strength. But whether that is really the best thing for you in the long run is something you may need to really consider. I'm sure you have, but I mean you need to consider it from the point of view of someone married to a bipolar husband.
You don't tell us much about
your husband's bipolar. It sounds fairly severe. How long has he been diagnosed and what kind of medical regimen is he on? Does he follow it? Does he get violent or resistant about
When I say you need to consider your marriage from the point of view of someone married to a bipolar husband, I say this as someone who is bipolar. Marriage to bipolars is not easy. I have a fairly mild form of the disorder and I still can make my husband absolutely nuts. This is not the last time your husband will do this, no matter what he tells you, because his sexual impulses are a manifestation of his disorder. Only if he is properly medicated and strictly committed to your marriage and his wellness is he going to be able to keep his behavior in check. But from what you write, he sounds like he is less committed to your marriage than you are, and that's a bad sign. Both of you need to be on the same page in terms of managing the bipolar and his behavior or you're just going to have more heartache coming your way.
So, it's VERY important that you take care of yourself first. Yes he has an illness. But it's an illness that is manageable if he chooses. You can only do so much. You have to do some hard thinking about
how much heartache you're willing to put up with in one marriage.
Good luck to you.

I want to thank you all so much for responding. It brought tears to my eyes to read what y'all wrote, even if it didn't seem like much to you. I don't know why I didn't do this sooner. My mom talked me into seeking some kind of a support group because she is the only one I can talk to about
all this. There are so may aspects to this situation that are so hard to explain in a few words. The only things holding me in this relationship are my faith in God and my deep love for my husband. When I moved back in, I knew I had a hard road ahead of me and that times like these would come when I would be weak. I went back into it expecting nothing for myself, and I know that sounds like martyrdom, but that's not what it is. I just knew how things would be and that expecting something out of it would only lead to disappointment. I have felt very trapped through these times because for me, divorce was never an option unless he physically cheated on me. And I am trapped by my love for him. I am in love, and if I could do it all over again I would never let myself fall in love. But I can't do it all over again and I need to stop thinking like that. As a person, my husband is the nicest guy you would ever want to meet. He's a hard worker, he's very considerate, he loves doing things for people, including me. So it's not that he's some monster. It is like he's two different people, though. He doesn't get violent, but he does get angry and he withdraws. Most of the time he refuses to communicate with me on a deep level. He's amicable in our conversations usually unless I try to talk about
our relationship, then he shuts down. When I was considering going back, I had a list of criteria for him to meet which included making amends with my family. I realized that he wasn't going to meet my criteria, and I had to make a choice. Did a want to continue living in aimless, excruciating limbo, or did I want to start moving in some direction, even if it was the wrong one, to get some idea of my next step? I decided to do something with my only stipulation being that he had to verbally and genuinely renew his commitment of faithfulness to me. I've been back now about
three months. I don't really have any security in our relationship. I half-way expect him to do something crazy at any time that will seal the death of our marriage. I don't like to do things half-way, though. And I know I'm not 100% in the marriage right now. I guess it's a defense mechanism because the emotional pain that I experienced from these other episodes was so intolerable and absolutely unbearable to the point of physical manifestations that I might just be protecting myself from that again. And he gives me no reassurance or reason to believe by his actions that this isn't going to happen again. Yet I'm not at the point where I can justify ending my marriage. So many people around me- friends and family- are getting divorced these days and they seem to be doing great! They're flourishing and free and happy and loving life. I have to ask myself what's going on?! I don't want other people to suffer like me- I wouldn't wish that on anyone- but I guess I don't know anything anymore. Having said all that, I'm not the completely innocent party in our relationship. I have made so many mistakes and been such a lacking wife in so many ways. One thing I can say for myself, though, is that I've held our commitment sacred and have never turned my back on it. I guess that's all I have to say right now. And by the way, he's taking lamictal and welbutrin. I may not have spelled those right. Thank y'all so much for your responses and words of encouragement.

Unanswered: ODBC connection to DB2 need 55 sec
this is my first post in this forum..
I have a problem with a ODBC connection.
Server: 8.2 (fixpack 15) Windows 2003 Domain-Users
Client: 8.2 (fixpack 15)
First i used db2 runtime clients 6.1 and all worked fine..
Now I have to use runtime clients 8.2 ( external Software need this version) and the connection to the Server over ODBC need ca. 55 sec until i get a "Connection sucessfull tested"..
In a db2cmd window the connection runs well and fast.
Also with the other clients (6.1) I never had problems connecting with odbc.
I used wireshark to sniff the networktraffic between client and server. (see gif)
I don´t realy understand what the things meen, but here you can see the time (57sec) the connection need to finish.
Hope someone can help me..
Kind regards

Have you explicitly activated the database (see the ACTIVATE DATABASE command) or does the first connection have to activate the database and potentially perform crash recovery?Knut Stolze

i did not used this command, because the database are still active since 2 months on this server.. I have this problem only from this 8.2 clients, other clients accessing this server work fine..
The Database should be just started, because it is used by diffrend users.

Whilst you're wandering along the streets of Chinatown picking up some last minute bargains on CNY goodies or simply soaking in the festive atmosphere, make time to pop by Temple Street (one of the many aisles of road closed to vehicles during this festive period) and keep a lookout for the following shop:
What's to be found here? Chinese desserts galore Here's a preview of their menu…
Everything from Peanut/Almond/Walnut/Black Sesame/Yam paste, egg pudding, even carrot/pumpkin/yam cake
…to flavoured snow ice and coconut kueh! What better way to cool oneself down than to indulge in an icy dessert after an afternoon spent browsing makeshift street stalls under the sweltering sun
These 2 desserts aren't particularly new or unique, but what makes them stand out from similar versions elsewhere is the stall's generosity with ingredients. Chunks of fresh mango in a thick mango pulp and an unstinting amount of diced water chestnuts ensure fans of the desserts keep coming back for more
Not in the mood for something sweet? Help yourselves to their home-made carrot/yam/pumpkin cakes and cantonese rice dumpling.
Delightfully soft, fragrant and flavourful, you won't be stopping at just one piece Remember to have it with their home-made chilli which packs a punch with its distinct taste of dried shrimp. Wonderfully YUM!
Interesting tid-bit: Remember Farmer Brand peanuts? They are made and marketed by the same company that owns this dessert stall.
65 – 67 Temple Street
No, a reversal of the evolutionary process to look like our primate ancestors isn't the new sexy. Getting your hands dirty is
First, the tools you'll need:
Introducing your hairy subject:
(Steamed Hairy Crab – $39.90)
*Step-by-step process censored due to the gory, messy nature of mutilating (crab) parts*
Source of buried treasure unveiled:
Yup, that's supposed to be the highlight of consuming hairy crabs – its rich, cholestrol-laden crab roe. Eaten with dark vinegar and ginger shreds, papilles thought it tasted no different from the roe of other crab species. Be prepared to expend some effort before you get a taste of hairy crab meat; you've got to literally snap every single leg of the crab and dig out the flesh with the tools pictured above. The end result is tiny shreds of crab meat, a plate covered in crab hair and tired fingers. Papilles concludes "Too much hassle for too little returns"
For those who are curious about the taste of hairy crab, there was too little of it to leave an impression on my palate. I did recall though that it wasn't as sweet and as tasty as I'd heard some people rave about. Still, if you're looking for a first-hand experience of dissecting crabs, head down to Din Tai Fung now as these crabs are currently in season
That's what I'd heard about Basil Alcove that led me to the cafe tucked in one of those worn-looking buildings, a place I'd have hurried past without an inkling that good food lurked in the premises. Thank goodness for newspapers and the internet. But there's always two sides to everything and in this instance, it was a case of raised anticipation and expectation.
So I wasn't particularly impressed. The menu was a lot more limited in variety than I had been primed to expect. In effect, there were some pastas and a handful of your usual western mains (i.e. pork chop, chicken, fish and lamb rack). In all honesty, if it wasn't for the reviews I had read and heard, I'd probably have turned around and left. But there I was, and I did want to find out just how much truth there was in those reviews
On a side-note, a tip from papilles: If you're new to a dining estab, always go for their "signature items". Cos' then if that item doesn't measure up, it saves you the trouble of trying the rest But I guess most of you know that. And that is what I did…
I must admit the presentation of this dish did elicit quite some "oohs" and "ahhs" from the table, and was deserving of the "fine-dining" label. But the important question was if it tasted as fine.
Verdict: The lamb was done perfectly medium-well as requested, an ever slight crisp with a tender, pink, juicy centre. Intensely flavoured with a smoky herb taste, their lamb was hardly gamey. And most importantly, I didn't have to expend too many calories just trying to get at the meat; I've had places where I literally had to saw at the meat and gave up eating it entirely cos' it defeated the purpose of eating since I was losing calories faster than putting them in
The pretty li'l sides of mango chutney, mashed potato and sauteed raddish added colour to the plate but did little to enhance the overall flavours of this dish. I also found the portions of this dish to be on the small side; then again, at $20.80 without GST and service charge, and considering the overall quality, Basil Alcove is a rarity. To sum it up, slightly above average food at slightly below average prices

Even the most adventurous and fussy of palates wish for something a little less complicated and fanciful every now and then. A blend of simple textures and flavours – the mark of comfort food, should never be underestimated. A remedy for the home-sick and plain sick alike, these are the foods that nourish the soul and help restore the balance of one's gastrointestinal system. Ok, if what I've just said sounds too abstract to make sense out of, just know that comfort foods well, provide comfort
Which is why whenever I feel under-the-weather and in need of soupy healthy stuff, I pop by a particular stall for some ban mian (handmade noodles):
Make no mistake, despite having a generous serving of greens and some pork slices in what appears to be a clear broth, this isn't your typical "healthy-tasting" fare. What sets this stall apart from many others is its broth, richly flavoured with the taste of garlic, pork and anchovies. A standard bowl ($3) comes with a poached egg, but you can choose not to have it (like I usually do) if you don't like the idea of egg whites clouding up your broth.
NB: The coffee shop where this stall is located just completed an overhaul so expect the signboard to look slightly different. A taste-test post-renovations ascertained the quality remains unchanged, with the added bonus of a cleaner dining environment
Block 177, Toa Payoh Central
(Corner coffee shop diagonally across Toa Payoh Central Community Building)
And we're not just talking cheap food, it has to be decent-tasting stuff at the very least. Craving a Jap bento set or some curry udon yet holding back cos' of the dreaded +++ that raise your bill beyond belief? Well, now you can satisfy those cravings and still be light on your wallet If you happen to live near the western side of this sunny isle, there's the option of hopping over to the canteen at the Faculty of Arts & Social Sciences at NUS; the Japanese food sold there is tasty and at student-friendly prices naturally. If a "journey to the West" sounds best to you only when it's with reference to a book title, sit up and keep the following name in memory - Mansaku. I'm not too sure what this means in Japanese or if it's even Japanese, but I do know that it works out to be somewhere along the lines of "cheap & good Jap food" for me
Their popular Salmon Set. And I can see why too – The salmon fillets were fresh and pan-fried just right, doused with a sweet-salty sauce. The side of freshly shredded cabbage provided an added crunch. My only complaint was that the rice was a bit lumpy that day, but that is a minor gripe. With a meal like this costing under $7, they really don't leave you much room to nit-pick
Business is so brisk that the owners, who used to operate both lunch and dinner shifts, need only open for lunch now. That means the stall is open from 11.30am till everything's sold out (which usually doesn't stretch beyond late afternoon) Check out their Teriyaki Chicken set as well. The chicken is well-marinated, and the sauce fragrant without being overly salty like most teriyaki sauces used everywhere else.

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for Fount of Mercy, New York, NY, USA
FOM works with small grassroots organizations in Uganda that serve vulnerable populations many of whom are women. There are many widows, single mothers, women with disabilities and orphaned/vulnerable girl children. FOM works to build the capacity of these organizations that serve these disenfranchised groups by jointly developing programs and projects that benefit the poorest women and girl children. One of the main ways that women are empowered is by integrating them into a viable income generating activity. An example is sewing and tailoring for which FOM pays for the training courses of women in the villages so they can learn to be tailors, generate income and support their families. Another instance of empowering young girls and women is through FOM's joint educational initiatives with community based schools that allow children who do not have the money to pay for school fees to receive an elementary education. FOM is an amazing ngo, because they utilize local knowledge, resources and incorporates the sustainability approach in all their development initiatives. The goal of all development endeavors and activities is to help achieve self-sustainability of the grassroots organization, poor communities and the most vulnerable individuals of those communities. This is done by building on the existing capacities of the stakeholders so poorest of the poor will have more choices regarding their lives and those of their families.
