When people think of Ireland, they might think of Guinness,
music or even Leprechauns, but did you know that Ireland has
a King?

World: Ireland, a new travel guide charting the ancient myths and legends
of the Emerald Isle.
here for more info
Island is a remote place off the northern coast of Co.
Donegal. It is three miles long and half a mile wide.
Its situation in the Tory Sound, a treacherous section
of ocean, makes it extremely vulnerable to bad weather.
All in all it is described as a bleak and inhospitable
place. Nevertheless it has a population of 170 living
in two towns, imaginatively titled East Town and West
Town. The island is famous for its school of painters
whose work has been displayed throughout Europe and
even in New York. The most famous painter is Patsy Dan
Rodgers, also known as the King of Tory.
first heard about the King of Tory when I read Tony
Hawks' book Round Ireland with a Fridge. The Islanders
wanted someone to take on the job of promoting the Island
and attract visitors. Patsy Dan was the only one willing
to take on the task and as a joke he was dubbed King
of Tory - a perfect example of the Irish people's sense
of humour. The name stuck and he is known all over Ireland
by this title. I had met Anne in Glengarriff who had
also read the book, and we decided it would be fun to
go there and meet a king. After all neither of us had
ever met a king before. Sure he was a bogus king, crowned
with a paper hat, but he was still a king. Idiosyncratic
as it sounds, this actually gave a purpose to the long
trip. Anne and I met up again in Galway and took a bus
to Letterkenny. We stayed overnight and then embarked
on the most difficult part of the trip.
figured that as we were going on an adventure to a bleak
and near desolate island, we should do it the hard way
and hitch. The ferry to the island leaves from Magheroarty,
which was about fifty kilometres away. It didn't leave
until five that evening so I figured we had plenty of
time. I was sensible enough to be travelling with a
backpack, but Anne had a large suitcase on wheels that
kept jack-knifing as she wheeled it along. After an
hour on the outskirts of town we were beginning to think
that maybe the idea of hitching wasn't such a good one
after all, when a van pulled over. I ran up, opened
the door and stared into the face of a bloke in his
thirties with rotten teeth and soiled clothing.
can take you seven kilometres up the road to Kilmacrenen,"
he said.
hesitated, partly out of a slight fear of this man,
but also because it wasn't very far.
won't get picked up here," he went on, "you've
more chance in Kilmacrenen."
we bundled our baggage in and set off.
never did get his name, but we did learn that he was
a film's location manager. As it turned out he not only
knew the costume company in London where Anne had recently
resigned from, but had also punched her boss. He grinned
a toothless grin at the announcement of this. At Kilmacrenen
we stood by the roadside in the rain for well over an
hour. It was a tiny village and hardly any traffic passed
through. Those that did wouldn't stop. This was possibly
due to the amount of luggage we were carrying. Our saviour
came in the form of the local bus. We clambered on and
struggled with our bags down the narrow aisle to a couple
of empty seats. I asked the lady in front where the
best place was to get off for the ferry port. She discussed
this with the lady next to her and then they both went
down and consulted with the driver. Soon the other passengers
were involved and the monotony of their journey was
temporarily broken. After much debate it was decided
that we should be dropped at the turnpike just outside
Falcarragh. From there it's just two and half miles
to Magheroarty. With that the bus returned to silence.
ten minutes of unsuccessful hitching, Anne suggested
that we walk the rest of the way. A brave suggestion
on her part, she had the most difficulty because of
her bag jack-knifing. We made a short stop in a nearby
pub. It was nowhere near any form of civilisation. Inside
we found the bartender sat with his feet up watching
the football. It appeared we were the only customers,
until two funny old men joined us. We spent a bit too
long in this pub - an easy thing to do in Ireland -
and suddenly realised our time was running short. So
we dashed back out on to the road and increased our
pace, trying to hitch as we walked. The only lift we
got came in the form of a nice lady driving a large
van. Katrina explained that she could only take us a
short way because she was on her way to pick up children
from the local school. If she were seen giving a lift
to hitchhikers then she would be in trouble.
fine," I said, "just take us as far as you
that she did. About 500 metres up a hill in fact. Round
the corner was a village full of people who knew her.
Even so we were grateful because it had saved us from
struggling up a steep hill. We eventually made it to
the port with ten minutes to spare. That was too close.
ferry port wasn't even a port really. It was a
rickety old pier. As we bought our tickets we
noticed a CD for sale. It contained music written
and performed by the king. The lady behind the
counter explained that the king himself had left
them, but hadn't left a price. Along with the
passengers the boat was loaded with building supplies,
and stock for the one shop on the island. The
boat was small and as we headed out into the Tory
Sound it was tossed about on the huge waves like
a piece of flotsam.
pier at the other end was still being built. Once the
boat was moored we disembarked and made our way along
a muddy road until we reached a junction, which is actually
the only one on the island. It also contained the only
signs on the island. These signs were in Gaelic so they
weren't much help. Mind you with only two towns, each
with the required direction in their names, signs were
hardly needed.
island is predominantly Gaelic speaking. The two young
girls running the café happily switched between
the two. They explained to us that they go to school
on the mainland during the winter, but have to spend
their summers here. They didn't like it and couldn't
wait until they were old enough to leave. I couldn't
blame them really. After all there literally was nothing
to do. Anne and I had no choice but to spend the evening
in the pub, finished off with a conversation by the
fire at the B&B.
next morning we took a stroll to East Town before trying
to find the king. The bleak landscape had a certain
majestic quality about it. Rugged cliffs that were constantly
being pounded by the surrounding rough sea dominate
the eastern side of the island. East Town was basically
just a residential area. As we got there it started
to rain. I had stupidly left my raincoat back at the
B&B. In a place such as this a raincoat should be
kept on you at all times. Needless to say I was soaked
upon return.
I said, "is the king there?"
I think I can say with all honestly that I will never
utter such a sentence again as long as I live.
she replied, "he went down to the art gallery.
If you wander down there I'm sure you will bump into
an island this size I felt sure that we would also.
at the pier we spotted an old man dressed in wellington
boots, a blue raincoat and wearing a black cap.
He fitted the description well, so we wandered
over. When he spotted us he waved and came to
meet us.
you the King of Tory?" asked Anne.
I am!" he replied.
hearty handshakes and introductions he explained that
he had seen Anne yesterday but was busy working on some
paintings for an upcoming exhibition. He apparently
came into the pub very late, but we had already left.
He left us momentarily as he went to see off the first
wave of tourists about to leave on the boat. The French
couple went on this boat also. When he had finished
he returned and spent about half an hour chatting with
us and posing for photos. He was quite a character:
chatty, friendly, helpful and with a fantastic sense
of humour. He gave us a brief rundown on the island
and its inhabitants. He explained that English was his
second language and he wasn't as confident with it as
he was with Gaelic. He sounded all right to me. He enjoyed
his role as king and said that he always tries his best
to meet everyone who visits the island. He took his
royal duties seriously - as serious as could be expected,
I suppose. Most evenings he would entertain visitors
in the pub with his music. We had been unfortunate enough
to be there on a night when he was too busy. After a
lengthy chat he bade us farewell and promised to see
us off on our boat.
and I went to the pub and had one for the sea. Then
we collected our stuff, said goodbye to Mary and her
husband and wandered down to the pier. True to his word,
the king came down and saw us off. As the king and his
island shrank off into the distance I realised that
this was one place I would be returning to. The remoteness,
the bleak weather and the barren inhospitable look held
a strange attraction. I could understand why it was
a haven for painters. It had a sort of cold beauty.
It was the perfect getaway. Also it contains great people.
One of the girls from the café had gone out of
her way to get Anne some sea sickness pills for the
journey home, which she had taken with her Guinness.
She was now clinging on to the rails in a sort of trance
like state. The island also has a king. Sure he wasn't
an actual king, but the warm and friendly way he welcomes
you to his island and the hospitality he extends, makes
him, in my opinion, a true king of hearts.
years later I returned. Click here

URIDOC sends various patterns of electric pulses to your muscles through the 4 electrodes in front of the URIDOC. Muscles respond to the pulses by contracting and relaxing rhythmically. The contracting and relaxing of the muscles produces soothing massage sensations that are similar to that given by a massage specialist added to a soft vibration to ease the feeling of the pulses. The motion of URIDOC will work on the muscles surrounding the bladder, stimulate the bladder and help the bladder to empty its capacity.

Channel Tunnel leads digital revolution
Today, Thursday 16 February 2017, Eurotunnel hosted a visit to its terminal in Coquelles, France, by the French Secretary of State for Digital and Innovation, Madame Axelle Lemaire. Eurotunnel presented to the Minister its €100 million, multi-annual investment plan, the 2020 Digital Programme.
Jacques Gounon, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Groupe Eurotunnel SE stated:
"I would like to thank Axelle Lemaire for her visit, which has provided the occasion to shine a light on how the European digital industry is a vital link for Eurotunnel and an opportunity for growth in the future. Our Digital programme will enable us to provide our own staff and customers with even better and more effective information".
The 2020 Digital Programme:
Having already invested in GSM-R and GSM-P communications technologies, including the very popular 4G network in the Tunnel, Eurotunnel has a continuing programme of investment in digital technology for the future along several different lines:
- The use of paperless technology for mobile Group staff on the terminals and on board the Shuttles, based on Navipad for train drivers and train captains, using WOOP for maintenance technicians and Elite, a real time performance monitoring tool.
- The use of data to help terminal operations adapt to the passage of each customer so that both individual and collective activities can be optimised using complex, ever more complete and varying data,
- The maintenance of Shuttles and rails which, now equipped with intelligent receptors (using the internet of things), transmit information in real time. Eurotunnel is also preparing to equip its trains with receptors capable of analysing the condition of the track whilst in service at high speed.
- For an infrastructure which already provides an exceptional level of availability, the ambition is to move from two nights to just one night of maintenance per week. For Eurotunnel, the digital revolution is a major scientific, and technological project.

SAN FRANCISCO -- For children battling life-threatening diseases and illnesses, sometimes the smallest things can brighten the spirits of both patients and their families.
Other times, it's not something small at all, it's something REALLY BIG. This week, a music superstar showed up at UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital in San Francisco.
Alicia Keys hosted a singalong for a small group of kids and their parents, then stuck around for pictures.
Veronica Coleman and her son Tucker were among those who got to attend. Veronica shared pictures and video to Facebook, apologizing that it was so shaky, saying she was crying the whole time.
One year old Tucker has been battling cancer most of his life and spent much of his fight at UCSF Benioff.
Keys and Lenny Kravitz also teamed up for a public fundraiser called "The Concert for Kids" held at AT&T Park the same night.
If you'd like to help the cause, you can donate to UCSF Benioff and to Family House, where many of the families stay while their children are hospitalized.

Our friends over at Big4.com has just released their annual report on the performance of the world's Big Four accounting firms – Deloitte, Ernst & Young, KPMG and PricewaterhouseCoopers – and it makes for very interesting reading.
First off, for those into sizing, the planet has a new champion. It's Deloitte, which was in second place in revenues in 2009. This time around, the UK firm nabbed the top spot with billings of US$26.578 billion. PwC, the biggest accounting firm in 2009, came in second with US$26.569 billion.
As in 2009, though, the difference between Deloitte and PwC was paper thin – just US$9 million. The positions can well be reversed again this year, if PwC manages to grow revenues faster than its rival. Deloitte's sales expanded by 1.9% in 2010, compared with PwC's 1.5% growth.
The gap between the top two and Ernst & Young and KPMG is much larger. Third-ranked E&Y reported revenues of US$21.2 billion (2009: US$21.4 billion, for third place as well), more than US$5 billion behind PwC. Bringing up the rear is KPMG with US$20.7 billion (2009: US$20.1 billion).
However, at nearly 3%, KPMG grew the top line much faster than the other three firms. Its expansion was certainly faster than Ernst & Young, whose revenues contracted by 0.9%.
A disclaimer is in order. KPMG's financial year ends on September 30 while E&Y's ends three months earlier, on June 30. "In 2010, this small difference in fiscal year-ends resulted in relatively higher impact for KPMG, which enjoyed three to five additional months of better economic conditions," explains the report. It is possible that the difference between KPMG and E&Y may be larger if their fiscal year had ended on the same month.
Future of E&Y
Going forward, the question for Ernst & Young is the impact, if any, of the lawsuits that have been brought against it in connection with the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers in 2008. The world's No. 3 accounting firm is facing three suits in the U.S., the latest being a December 21 complaint by the New York State Attorney General for alleged accounting fraud.
In the UK, the Accountancy and Actuarial Discipline Board opened an investigation in October last year on Ernst & Young's conduct in relation to the preparation of a report to the Financial Services Authority "in respect of Lehman Brothers International (Europe)'s compliance with the FSA's Client Asset Rules for the year ended 30th November 2007."
Will E&Y take a hit to its reputation and lose business because of its legal and regulatory problems? It's difficult to tell, at this point. While it is the only one of the Big Four that saw revenues decrease in both local-currency and dollar terms from fiscal year 2009 to 2010 (US$21.4 billion vs. US$21.2 billion), Ernst & Young reported a 5.3% rise in revenues in January to June 2010 over the same period in 2009.
According to the Big4.com analysis, E&Y billings were up 13.3% for advisory services and 9.4% for transaction advisory services, "due to improved business confidence and an increase in corporate activity." Revenues from assurance increased modestly "due to continued pricing pressure but more than offset by an increase in audit market share and an increase in work from existing clients."
It will be interesting to see this time next year how Ernst & Young had performed in 2011. The atmospherics of the Lehman scandal and the need to defend itself can prove to be a distraction to the firm. There can also be monetary consequences, depending on the actual outcome of the legal cases and regulatory inquiry.
Looking to 2011
The ranking and bragging rights aside, the combined 2009 Big Four results show that the accounting sector has hauled itself out of the doldrums and can now possibly roar through 2011 with all engines going. The extension of tax cuts and improving unemployment numbers in the U.S. and Japanese and Chinese funding support for bailouts in Europe are positive drivers for stronger global GDP growth – and thus intensified corporate activity that require the services of accounting firms.
"The outlook for 2011 and beyond is quite optimistic," Big4.com concludes. "Revenue is expected to grow at a steady pace, with help from emerging markets and Advisory services."

Eric is like many immigrants in the restaurant industry who work long hours to piece together a living for their families. Their work-shifts often stretch late into the evening, and sometimes preclude them from attending church on Sunday mornings.
Eric and his family eventually became drawn to a Cantonese-speaking Christian community of restaurant workers called Taste of Life Fellowship, an outreach of the Anglican Church of the Good Shepherd, a congregation in the Anglican Network in Canada (ANiC).
Taste of Life Fellowship meets weekly on Tuesday nights. Because of the challenge of the work-shift hours and demands on the restaurant workers, the fellowship holds services, Bible Studies, and community suppers after the evening shifts end, sometimes as late as 11:30 p.m. In addition, they sponsor Monday afternoon ping pong gatherings each week where newcomers are invited to come, meet new friends, and enjoy an afternoon of fun and fellowship.
Through the ministry and care of the community of Taste of Life Fellowship, Eric gave his life to Christ. Seventy people gathered for Eric's baptism and, as this top chef with a short temper stood to be baptized, he apologized publicly to his wife and son for his angry outbursts. It is exceptionally rare in Chinese culture to hear a father humble himself in public and ask for his own son's forgiveness, but Eric's life had been transformed through the amazing work of the Gospel.
Mrs. Astor Lam is the coordinator of Taste of Life Fellowship. The fellowship began in 2009 based in the Richmond-area on the outskirts of Vancouver. Richmond is predominately made up of Chinese immigrants, many of whom do not yet speak English, and many who work full-time in the restaurant industry.
Gambling and drinking are growing problems in the Richmond community. Taste of Life Fellowship has responded by holding special monthly gatherings that focus on the needs of families so that they can hear the Good News of Christ and be encouraged in God's love and care for them. Like Eric, many are coming to Christ, being baptized and confirmed, and growing in their new Christian faith.
The fellowship is innovative in how it reaches out to its members. "For all the members of the fellowship," said Mrs. Lam, "we encourage them to read the Bible by having daily Bible Trivia. Questions are introduced every morning through an online group chat and all the members can play and respond throughout the day."
"During the beginning of this year as certain members' relationship with God became more mature," said Mrs. Lam, "two discipleship training and formation groups were introduced. After they had finished the eight classes, two social networks were created as a follow-up for those who participated in the course." Mrs. Lam continues to provide guidance and mentorship for those groups.
Taste of Life Fellowship is part of a network of ministries reaching the immigrants of Canada. Asian and Multicultural Ministries in Canada (AMMiC) is a ministry of the Anglican Network in Canada, a diocese in the Anglican Church in North America. The Rt. Rev. Stephen Leung is the bishop overseeing AMMiC. He is also rector of Good Shepherd Anglican Church in Vancouver, where Taste of Life Fellowship began.
Noting the fast-changing demographics in North America, Bishop Leung feels a growing sense of urgency. Visible minorities are now almost 20% of Canada's population and he admits it can feel overwhelming at times since the need is so great.
"Just as Jesus focused on the marginalized in His ministry, so we seek to serve immigrants in our communities," said Bishop Leung. "May God give us hearts for the 'stranger' in our midst and a growing vision for working together across the Anglican Church in North America to reach ethnic communities."

Hulu has struck a brand new licensing agreement with Disney-ABC Tv Group for exclusive subscription VOD rights that makes the complete libraries of Boy Meets World and House Improvement out there on a streaming service for the primary time. Robert Picardo , greatest often called The Doctor on Star Trek: Voyager , made two appearances on the present as Tim's neighbor, Joe "The Meat Man" Morton. He appeared in "A Sew, Sew Night," and "Blow-Up," each early on within the third season. It was explained by his wife Marie ( Mariangela Pino ) within the fifth-season episode "Jill's Surprise Occasion" that he had left her for a youthful girl who worked at his plant (the real cause why Picardo was not seen was his function on Voyager). Fascinating. I feel the visitor-posting strategy seems to be waning, unfortunately. What's powerful on this enterprise is so A LOT content material (and many good stuff) is on the market. The question begins more to be about how good your content on your website is.
Overly Slim Superlative : During a particular episode of Instrument Time, Tim thanked the viewers for making it "Michigan's fourth-highest-rated cable tool present". We will add that publishing a post or article ought to be a promotional instrument for every enterprise, not just to get extra site visitors, also to get more prospects for any business. The Device Time theme music, an early 1960s-fashion saxophone-dominated instrumental rock tune, was generally used as the closing theme music for Home Improvement, particularly when behind the credits have been running the blooper scenes that took place throughout the taping of a Instrument Time section.
Yesterday, I sent my mission within the Arisaig Cave. Nine years after Johan first advised me about the cave, that's me climbed all the nice traces. Time to move on! I am going to really miss the place. I'll miss driving west on the Street to The Isles, forsaking torrential rain or snow in Fort William, to arrive into brilliant sunshine as you hit the coast at Lochailort. I will miss watching otters and sea eagles going about their business on the beachfront by the cave, as I went about mine. I am going to miss a pre-climb brew in the Arisaig caf, looking to Eigg. And of course I will miss the beautifully bodily and technical climbs.
Going by Magic Wood, the place I have completed quite a lot of my boulder repeats lately, Lithium is unquestionably a grade more durable than New Base Line 8B+ , Shallow Water to Riverbed 8B+ , Mystic Kinds 8B+ and positively tougher than Apply of the Wild 8C It feels comparable in issue to In Search of Time Lost 8C which I tried for 2 periods at the finish of my final journey, and received good links on. However perhaps it is easier than The Understanding 8C which I tried for 30 minutes however could not do. By this logic perhaps it's nearest straightforward 8C. But once more, the UK perhaps has stiffer grading. Whether that is right or wrong is one other argument. The underside line is that it is extremely laborious to cut back grading to a completely rational calculation. I just do not do sufficient bouldering to have an excellent deal with on grades.

This paper investigates the incidents of pharmacy robberies in British Columbia, Canada between 2001 and 2016. Using rational choice theory and situational crime prevention, this paper examines the sudden decrease in pharmacy robberies in fall 2015 and proposes theory-based implementations that may further reduce counts of pharmacy robbery throughout the province. This study also measures the effect of recent bylaw implementation enacted in September 2015, and the effect this may have had on reducing pharmacy robbery counts throughout British Columbia. Employing negative binomial regression models, counts of monthly pharmacy robberies are analyzed in four locations: Vancouver, Lower Mainland, Interior, and Vancouver Island. Statistically significant results are found to support the preventative measures enacted by the pharmacy bylaw implementations.

Keeping Kids Safe Online
As parents in 2019, you have to worry about two worlds. One is the real world that all parents before us have dealt with—the one with busy streets, bullies, and heartbreak. The other is much more complex: the online world. How can you address an issue that's so ingrained in our daily lives?
Use parental controls.
If your kids are very young and don't fully grasp right and wrong, use parental controls. It's less about whether or not you trust them and more about the reality of getting out ahead of the natural curiosity of kids. And check your child's search history regularly.
Keep your passwords private.
Especially if you are sharing devices, do not save your passwords. Make sure kids cannot access accounts that have personal or financial information. Be aware of your device settings for in-app purchases or one-click buying to avoid racking up a large sum in your child's purchases.
Keep the computer and devices in a shared space.
If your kids have their own devices, don't let your kids take them into their rooms. If it is a shared device, make sure you're keeping it in a shared space. That will help you keep an eye on what they're looking at, as well as affirming to them that what they do online is not a secret.
Set and stick to rules.
Give your child a schedule for when and where they can use the devices. Make sure they understand to never give personal information online. Keep a bookmarked list of the sites that are okay for them to visit on their own. Whatever rules work for your family, make sure they are clearly communicated and enforced.
Don't make technology the bad guy.
Kids can be easily exposed to the entire world in the palm of their small hands. While that can be scary, the answer isn't to close every door. Realize the positives of the digital realm, and focus on that. Online they can find education or breed special interests. Instead of trying to pretend that the internet doesn't exist at all, make it safer by enforcing these rules.
In a world of scrolling content, it can be intimidating to try and navigate your way to keep your kids safe from everything. But just like with everything else, the key isn't to eliminate the problem; it's to effectively establish the rules and give your kids the power to do the right thing.

Teething is the process by which your infant's primary teeth sequentially appear by emerging through the gums. Teething babies are irritable, restless, have swollen gums and loss of appetite in a majority of cases. As a parent, when you see your baby in discomfort, it is natural for you to do anything to help your child by giving teething tablets or over the counter gels. But are they safe? Probably, No.
Primary teeth typically occur in pairs. Teething starts at about 3- 9 months of age and when it starts, babies are usually fussy. Ideally, you should stay away from teething tablets or over the counter gels.
So, what can you do instead, to help your baby? Let's look at the classic symptoms of teething and how to comfort your baby without using medications or teething tablets.
Classic symptoms of teething
Most babies begin to teeth around 3-9 months of age. There are some common symptoms usually seen in most kids. However, some kids may not show any such symptom. The classic symptoms of teething include –
- Swollen and tender gums
- Fussy babies and crying more than usual
- A slightly raised temperature (less than 101F temperature)
- Excessive drooling
- Wanting to chew on hard things
- Change in eating or sleeping pattern. (1)
Teething can be more painful for some babies than others, but teething doesn't make babies sick. If your baby has diarrhea, vomiting, rashes on the body, cough, and congestion or high fever, then you need to see your doctor.
Many parents use teething tablets for their babies to comfort them without knowing the pros or cons. Let us delve into what are teething tablets, how they work and do they have side effects. We will also discuss home care methods as an alternative to teething tablets.
What are teething tablets?
Teething tablets are a homeopathic treatment for teething pain. They are typically in the form of pellets. You have to place this quick dissolving tablet under your baby's tongue or mix the tablet into milk or water.
These tablets promise fast relief. These tablets contain herbal ingredients like chamomile or coffee seed extract. Chamomile helps with irritability whereas coffee seed extract helps children sleep well.
Parents gravitate towards teething tablets because they feel using herbal products is being eco-friendly. Are they safe?
Efficacy of teething tablets
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulates homeopathic medicines, but it doesn't evaluate them to ascertain if they are safe or effective. If there is a case against any homeopathic product, the FDA will ban that medicine.
But at the same time, FDA won't stop a manufacturer from putting a drug on the shelf. There is not much research done on these products, so nobody knows the potential risks unless someone files a complaint.
Preliminary studies suggest that chamomile may help in anxiety disorders. However, there is not much research evidence are in place regarding its effect on its use in teething tablets. As a result, many pediatricians don't recommend the use of teething tablets.
Are teething tablets safe?
A professional homeopath knows what herbs to use with which patients and how to dose them accordingly. A typical parent, who uses teething tablets, does not understand the risks associated with it.
A regulatory agent doesn't test homeopathy teething tablets, so using them for an infant is risky.
In the recent past, a manufacturer of a major teething tablet made headlines for all the wrong reasons. According to complaints, the teething tablets of the company contained belladonna as stated on the ingredient label.
In the teething tablets, belladonna (2) far exceeded the specifications on the product label and caused adverse effects and death of 10 children. Belladonna has many medical applications, but the list of side effects is long. In infants, the side effect can be fatal too.
If children, under two years of age, take belladonna orally, then it puts them at unnecessary risk due to the side effects.
Even medicated gels have side effects. So, parents should stay away from teething tablets and gels, even if the manufacturing company is very well-known.
It is never wise to put your baby's life at risk by using a product marketed without much research.
Side effects of teething tablets
In homeopathic medicines, the ingredients are greatly diluted. Ideally, there should not be any side effects of homeopathic medicine. Since there is no FDA regulation, opting for a homeopathic teething tablet is still under a scanner.
Teething tablets may cause several complications in your child such as difficulty in breathing, muscle weakness, skin flushing or seizure. Contact your doctor immediately if you notice any such symptoms.
Alternate options instead of teething tablets
There are several ways to relieve your baby without using teething tablets. Some of them are –
Rub your baby's gums
Use a clean finger or clean cloth to rub your baby's gums. The pressure applied on the surface of the gums may ease your baby's discomfort. You can also let them chew on your clean fingers if the teeth haven't come through yet.
Cold things
Options such as a tightly rolled cold washcloth, a spoon or chilled teething ring can be soothing on a baby's gum. Make sure that the teething ring is not frozen. Also, avoid plastic teething rings containing liquids.
There have been complaints of bacterial growth in the liquid of the teething ring and a baby may bite through the ring. Latex chewy toys may be a safer bet. Cold objects help reduce inflammation as well. (3)
Hard food
If your baby is eating hard foods, offer something edible to chew on such as a peeled cucumber or carrot. Keep a close watch on your baby so that he/she doesn't choke on a broken piece of carrot. Never put any food that may cause the child to choke.
Use of pain medications
Oral medicine, Acetaminophen (children's Tylenol), helps reduce pain. Ibuprofen should not be used in infants less than six months old. Don't use topical pain reliever containing benzocaine for children below two years of age.
Benzocaine (4) causes rare but serious side effects. Do not give aspirin-containing products to children.
Though these medications are available over the counter, it is better to consult your child's pediatrician before taking any such medicine.
Over to you on teething tablets
You can help your teething baby by following above natural remedies at home. Avoid teething tablets even if common notion says that homeopathic medicines are safe. Remember, what works for one baby may not work for your baby.
You may have to use a combination of the options available and see which works best for your baby. Also, start thinking about introducing oral care for your baby's new teeth. Taking good care of teeth should begin as early as the first tooth erupts.

Alienware Area-51 7500 Gaming System
F.E.A.R., Prey & HL2: Episode 1
|One of the most highly anticipated titles of 2005 was Monolith's paranormal thriller F.E.A.R. Taking a look at the minimum system requirements, we see that you will need at least a 1.7GHz Pentium 4 with 512MB of system memory and a 64MB graphics card, that is a Radeon 9000 or GeForce4 Ti-class or better, to adequately run the game. Using the full retail release of the game patched to v1.08, we put the graphics cards in this review through their paces to see how they fared with a popular title. Here, all graphics settings within the game were set to the maximum values, but with soft shadows disabled (Soft shadows and anti-aliasing do not work together currently). Benchmark runs were then completed at a resolution of 1600x1200 with anti-aliasing and anisotropic filtering enabled.
This time the Area-51 7500 takes fourth place amongst our test rigs. This is a little bit better outcome, but it's still not what we expected.
|After many years of development, Take-Two Interactive recently released the highly anticipated game Prey. Prey is based upon an updated and modified version of the Doom 3 engine, and as such performance characteristics between the two titles are very similar. Like Doom 3, Prey is also an OpenGL game that uses extremely high-detailed textures and a plethora of dynamic lighting and shadows. But unlike Doom3, Prey features a fare share of outdoor environments as well. We ran these Prey benchmarks using a custom recorded timedemo with the game set to its "High-Quality" graphics mode, at a resolution of 1600 x 1200 with 4X AA and 16X anisotropic filtering enabled simultaneously.
The Area-51 7500 continues down the same path and finishes in fourth place again in this test. The margin between second, third and fourth place isn't that great, but the Area-51 7500 should be right in there with a slightly higher score.
|Thanks to the dedication of hardcore PC gamers and a huge mod-community, the original Half-Life became one of the most successful first person shooters of all time. So, when Valve announced Half-Life 2 was close to completion, gamers the world over sat in eager anticipation. Upon its release, HL2 was universally lauded, and the sequel won an array of "Game of the Year" awards. Armed with the latest episodic update to HL2, Episode 1, we benchmarked the game with a long, custom-recorded timedemo that takes us through both outdoor and indoor environments. These tests were run at a resolution of 1600 x 1200 with 4X anti-aliasing and 16X anisotropic filtering enabled concurrently, and with color correction and HDR rendering enabled in the game engine as well.
In our Half-Life 2 test, the Area-51 7500 almost ties for third place, but it still maintains that fourth position.

Sid: Oh my goodness, God's Spirit is moving already, the glory is filling this studio and why not I'm interviewing David Hertzog who has pioneered operating in the glory. Because when you're operating in God's glory everything speeds up. And just as I was doing the introduction God told me I started moving and started saying it people's backs and new spines and pain is gone from their backs and neck areas. David Herzog you proclaimed that you were going to move in the glory now at your meetings I know people that are bald, they instantly start having hair, or instant weight losses, or gold teeth, or new teeth. I mean creative miracles of all kinds. What does God want to do now?
David: Right now God's healing somebody with missing cartilage, God's putting new cartilage right now, I think it's in your knees, just get up right now and begin to jump up and down and to bend those knees. Cartilages growing right now in Jesus name, I command it to grow out of nowhere just begin to form and appear. Your right I just can sense a lot of glory, there's people getting new teeth and gold teeth crowns and fillings right now. If your listening just lay hands on your mouth and in Jesus I just declare gold teeth, grey teeth and black teeth that were not very good turning to bright gold crowns, the entire tooth turn to gold and silver and silver crowns and fillings in Jesus mighty name. I just release angels of dentistry into your mouth right now, I just see him just pouring in liquid gold, liquid silver and it's cementing and becoming these bright beautiful gold and silver teeth, praise God.
Sid: David anyone can say these words you've just said, but you sense God's glory on those words, am I right?
David: Yes, I just want to say what I feel he's saying, I only do what I hear or see the Father do, that's when He did or say something it usually happened; actually it always happened.
Sid: What is the most outrageous miracle that you've ever seen?
David: Wow, I've seen a lot of crazy stuff, we were in a meeting there in Paris during a revival and a girl pretty much levitated off the ground thirteen centimeters off the ground while she was interceding for souls to be saved. At that moment thirteen people came up that were suicidal spirits to begin getting delivered instantly, and souls started coming and that was the beginning of our six month revival; that was amazing
Sid: Have you actually seen body parts materialize?
David: Yeah, we've seen it happen, we've seen, we've actually watched as a woman that was bald begin growing hair in front of our eyes and we have a amateur film of it which we're trying to put together to put for a TV show, but we watched it while it was forming on top of her head, hair. We have had people had teeth grow where there was no teeth, we had it happen again last week in Dubai but also we've watched as we've looked into people's mouths we were actually in Jerusalem just this Succoth here, and behind me were these big, big TV screens and this camera man was filming this woman's mouth who somebody had claimed they thought they saw some gold starting to grow in her mouth. So behind me is this big white tooth on a screen that some camera man's filming in this woman's mouth. As I'm speaking people start screaming because behind me everybody there about 1,000 people saw the entire tooth turn from white to gold in front of everybody eyes. And even I think Steven Strang from Charisma he was there, he was right in the front row, everybody saw this, so more and more people are getting to see the creative miracles as they are happening.
Sid: In your book, which we're making available this week "Glory Invasion" you talk about there's specific geographical areas where there's almost portals that open your way to the heaven or better yet open Heaven to come to earth. Explain that.
David: Yeah, there's just places on the earth that are already open, for instance Bethel says Genesis 28 " That he had Jacob's ladder opened up of this open heaven happen and it's like angels ascending and descending and he says in there this is the gate of Heaven." A gate can be a portal or a doorway. So as I read that I realized wow, it's still open over there, this is the gate or one of the gates, so we went over there to Bethel, we laid down on the floor, began to worship the Lord and just soaked in the Spirit and people literally were taken to Heaven, saw each other documented "You saw me," "You said this to me," I said "This to you." I mean in separate testimonies compared the notes; people were literally in the Spirit, I'm taken. So in the place like that it's much easier to have an experience. Sedona is another place, now a lot of psychics come and New Agers because they try to plug it up and go on the second heavens, but God wants us to go to Third Heaven. Jerusalem is probably the biggest portal in the world, you go to Jerusalem and when you can break into the Spirit realm it's so, so, so open you know Jerusalem is like a local phone call to Heaven basically. It's just something there where you feel so much closer to Heaven and to God and you can press in. So there are places that you go that seem to be more open in the Spirit realm than other places, there just geographical locations that are just they are open; open to the Spirit realm which can be either God's or the enemies. But there is an open realm of supernatural things occurring.
Sid: David what does God want right at this moment for those that are so hungering an thirsting for the glory realm what is God want?
David: Number one He wants you to be hungry just desperate for it, not like okay, that's nice, but desperate, "I got, I must have this touch of God's glory, I have to have it, I'm desperate for it, I'm hungry for it, I can't go a day without it, like that kind of desperation will pull in another realm of glory in your life so just be desperately hungry, not apathetic about it. You go to other countries I notice third world countries they are desperate for the gospel, desperate for anything that God has. In the west many times we're a little apathetic, we're saved, we're Spirit filled but okay that's nice for you and if it happens to me great. No He wants desperation in God's people to have these high realms of God's glory so more people can be touched and saved.
Sid: Do you believe that many dead will come to life from the resurrection glory power that believer's will be walking in?
David: Oh, I believe they will, I mean it's already happening, but I believe that it's going to be happening in a massive scale.
Sid: Have you seen it in your ministry?
David: I've seen it on several occasions one of the most significant one was when I was in Africa and I was teaching how in the glory there is no distance. I was doing this big campaign and there was thousands of people and many miracles and many salvations, many demons coming out of people and one of the nights God told me " I want you to announce that there's a woman here whose come from the hospital, her daughters dying, she's hoping she'll be healed because she came but I want you to announce that the daughter has just died. And so I got up and said, "There's someone here your daughter just died at the hospital, you're here hoping that she would get healed, and a woman began to weep and wail and we found out that yes, this person did die at the hospital, they have actually have cell phones, they have cell phones in Africa I found out. So in the meeting the Lord told me to now command her to come back from the dead, so we pointed in the direction of the hospital and commanded her to spirit to come back in her body. When that woman went back to the doctor the doctor said "We told you not to leave, she died while you left and we covered her with a sheet and at this exact time which was the moment we began to pray for her she came back from the dead and began moving and breathing and so we pulled the sheet off and realized that she was no longer dead. You don't always have to in the glory there is no distance like the Roman Centurion told Jesus "You Just speak it and my servant who is not here will be healed." So that's the advantage of the glory is you don't have to be at the exact spot even for resurrection.
Sid: David, the glory is dramatically increasing what is God showing you?
David: Right now there's two things, there's miracles and there's also glory impartation, and impartation of the revelation of the knowledge of His glory. I just declare that over people right now listening, that the heavy, heavy Khavod weight, presence of God's glory will invade homes right now, where ever you are on the internet, around the world, at the presence of God and as that glory comes there's miracles happening. There's impartation over ministers, and I see weight loss happening right now, people right now that are believing for weight loss I command weight pounds and kilos go in Yeshua's mighty name. And if that's for you I want you to get up and just run around your room by faith right now just get up and do something, just run in circles right now by faith, just run around your room right now in circles and start checking your waistline, many of you are going to start noticing inches leaving and pounds…
Sid: How in the world can I interview and go running around David, your making it difficult for me. [Laughing]
David: You're pretty skinny Sid so you don't have to do it.
Sid: [Laughing] Oh no, I'd like to be running around right now. David we're making your book available it's…why did you write this book?
David: Why God has been getting on me for years to write this book about this level of the glory, and so I just wrote it out of obedience, God said, "Write the revelation down so that people can run with it and so that they can operate in what you are operating in." So basically get the book so that you can have the secrets and revelation to live and operate in the realm that we're understanding.
Sid: So, between you and me so why are you letting everyone understand what the Holy Spirit is showing you because you could just be the superstar?
David: Okay, between you and me, and so don't tell anyone then right.
Sid: Right.
David: Just between you and me, basically God's in a hurry He's coming back soon, the more people that get this glory and revelation the more souls will be saved and the more miracles. It's basically about expanding the kingdom of God not expanding my personal kingdom, that's the difference. A lot of minister don't let their secrets out of what's causing the things in their ministry to be blessed, because they want to be the only one. I'm trying to work myself out a job. [Laughing]
Sid: Well, that's our job listen if you're the only one you're the target for the devil but if a million people are walking with the superstar in them the devil will go mischugah, crazy. I want you to drive the devil mischugah…© Copyright 2012 sidroth, All rights Reserved. Written For: Sid Roth "It's Supernatural"

mbox.js version details
This page shows changes to each version of mbox.js.
We recommend that all mbox.js users upgrade to version 57 or later. Some users have experienced timeout issues when target.js couldn't be loaded. Version 57 fixed that issue. However, if you are using the Experience Cloud Visitor ID service, version 58 or later is required.
The way Target responds to calls from your page depends on the version of the Target library you are using, whether the visitor ID implementation is present, and whether the visitor ID exists. For information, see Target Call Responses by Library Version .
The mbox.js library is no longer being developed. All customers should migrate from mbox.js to at.js. For more information, see Migrate to at.js from mbox.js .
mbox.js version 63
Target Release: 17.7.1
mbox.js version 63 is now available. For more information, see Download mbox.js .
The following enhancements and fixes are included in mbox.js version 63:
- Fixes an issue with SDID generation when using mboxDefine() and mboxUpdate() . This affects only clients that have Visitor API on the page.
mbox.js version 62
- Fixed flicker issues in redirect activities when viewed in Google Chrome browsers.
- Added secureOnly setting that indicates whether mbox.js should use HTTPS only or be allowed to switch between HTTP and HTTPS based on the page protocol. This is an advanced setting that defaults to False.
mbox.js version 61
Target Release: 16.7.2
Release Date: July 28, 2016
mbox.js version 61 contains the following enhancements:
- The mboxSession ID generation algorithm in the JavaScript Date API now generates a random string instead of using a timestamp plus a random string.
- The following details apply only if you have the Visitor API on the page:
- mbox.js version 61 doesn't override the Visitor API loadTimeout property. Clients can use visitorApiTimeout + visitorApiPageDisplayTimeout to control Visitor API integration.
- Added an optoutEnabled setting to support future Adobe Experience Cloud opt-out functionality. The default value is false. If this property is enabled, all requests execute asynchronously against the /ajax endpoint, just like version 60.
- Body hiding is disabled by default. Target uses body hiding only when global mbox auto-create is enabled and body hiding is enabled.
- If there are no Experience Cloud Visitor ID cookies, all requests execute asynchronously against /ajax on the first page load. On the second page load, Target uses the normal flow because Visitor ID values are already present.
- If you use Adobe Analytics as your activity's reporting source, you do not need to specify a tracking server during activity creation if you are using mbox.js version 61 (or later) or at.js version 0.9.1 (or later). The mbox.js or at.js library automatically sends tracking server values to Target. During activity creation, you can leave the Tracking Server field empty on the Goals & Settings page.
mbox.js version 60
Target Release: 16.4.1
Release Date: April 21, 2016
By default, page content is not hidden. Version 60 hides page content only when the "auto-create global mbox" option is enabled. It uses the CSS opacity:0 property for page hiding instead of display:none . This ensures proper delivery for responsive sites and aligns with at.js.
You can enable body hiding using two settings:
- bodyHidingEnabled The default value is false, which means HTML BODY is not hidden.
- bodyHiddenStyleThe default value is body{opacity:0} . This value can be changed to something different, like body{display:none} .
These settings can be overridden by including something like:
<script> window.targetGlobalSettings = { bodyHidingEnabled: true, bodyHiddenStyle: "body{opacity:0}", visitorApiPageDisplayTimeout: 2000 }; </script>
The page hiding technique uses style tags to add and remove styles. This ensures that the site's styles remain unchanged after the page hiding code executes.
DTM Users: Note that this will prevent you from using the Automatic import option since there is no way to save the above configuration in the Target UI. You will have to use the instructions above and then paste the contents into the code box of the Custom hosting option.
Also in Version 60, if the visitorAPI.js file is present for the Experience Cloud Visitor ID service, all mboxes are requested via an AJAX endpoint. This is required because Visitor API methods are asynchronous. One benefit of this approach is that the Start Render time is decreased dramatically, because mbox requests do not block rendering. However, this also means that all Target offer content runs asynchronously, so all offer code must be written accordingly. Offers containing document.write and other code that assumes it will run on initial page load will not execute as expected.
- V60 asynchronous callsWhen using v60 with the visitor id service, all mbox calls are made asynchronously. This is a change from how mboxes have always worked, so be careful if upgrading to this version. Review the Asynchronous Considerations section of the at.js documentation ( at.js also uses asynchronous calls) to understand some of the risks.
- New Visitor scenarios might have flickerWhen using v58 to v60 with the visitor id service, mbox calls will wait for the visitor id to be set before firing (or until a timeout has occurred). This happens on the first page load of a new visitor.
mbox.js version 59
Target Release: 16.2.1
Release Date: February 17, 2016
mbox.js version 59 contains the following enhancements:
- Mbox disabled has been lowered to 30 minutes
- An issue related to page hiding/unhiding has been fixedRather than using display:none to hide the page as in version 58, opacity:0 is used. This resolves issues with responsive-designed sites that resulted from the previous method of hiding the page.
mbox.js version 58
Target Release: 15.7.1
Release Date: July 30, 2015
This version of mbox.js is required if you use Analytics as the reporting source for Target and is highly recommended for Profiles and Audiences.
Version 58 of mbox.js ensures the Experience Cloud Visitor ID service returns with a visitor ID before Target calls are made. This ensures that audience data shared through the Profiles and Audiences core service are available for the first Target call in the visitor's session. To avoid flickering of default content before test content returns, Target hides the <BODY> until the visitor ID service returns. display:none is used to hide the page.
This update also fixes an issue when using Analytics as the reporting source for Target that caused an inflated number of visitors to be reported in Analytics for visits that only included one page.
Mbox.js sets timeout values in case the visitor ID service does not return. Default timeout for the visitor ID service is 500ms (0.5 seconds). An additional timeout sets the upper limit for how long the <BODY> tag will be hidden. That default is 500ms (0.5 seconds). These timeouts can be changed by inserting the following code before the mbox.js reference on each page:
<script> window.targetGlobalSettings = { visitorApiTimeout: 500, visitorApiPageDisplayTimeout: 500 }; </script>
Mbox.js version 58 and later executes non-JavaScript content for the global mbox immediately after the HTML BODY tag is present. JavaScript content inside <script> tags for the global mbox executes after the DOMContentLoaded event is fired. This order of content delivery ensures that JavaScript content for the global mbox is delivered and rendered properly.
mbox.js version 57
Target Release: 15.4.1
Release Date: April 21, 2015
The following changes have been made in this version:
- Auto-created global mbox response for Target Standard no longer uses document.write() or creates a <div> element.This removes the requirement for the mbox.js file to be the last item in the <head> of the page. Strong QA is recommended when upgrading to this new version.This change might cause changes in behavior when delivering some offer types. Here are the specific conditions that will need to be considered:
- HTML content returned as part of a "plug in offer" does not render correctly, but JavaScript within the offers executes as expected.
- Fixed problems reported in Version 56 due to changes in the Extra JavaScript section of mbox.js. All code in the Extra JavaScript section is again available in the global scope.
The following functionality is not supported in mbox.js version 57:
- An auto-created global mbox generated in Target Standard does not work with hosted offer types from Target Classic. Hosted offer types include "offer on your site" and "offer outside Test&Target."This means that in Target Classic, you must not select the auto-created global mbox from Target Standard when one of these offers is required.
- Only JavaScript plugins are supported.If a plugin's offer combines JavaScript code, and HTML, then the JavaScript code is executed but the HTML content is not shown.
mbox.js version 57 also includes important fixes:
- Fixed an issue that caused the SiteCatalyst plugin to not work in mbox.js v56.
- Fixed an issue that resulted in extra JavaScript errors due to scoping change.
- Revert changes to constructor of mboxFactory.
mbox.js version 56
Target Release: 15.1.2
Release Date: February 17, 2015
Some users have experienced timeout issues when target.js couldn't be loaded. Version 57 fixed that issue. However, if you are using the Experience Cloud Visitor ID service, version 58 or later is required.
The following changes have been made in this version:
- Changes for Premium Recommendations to support passing parameters into global mbox
- Adds a 5 second timeout to the target.js load call. In the rare case that the file doesn't load, the page will render and no Target Standard activities will display.
- Moved "extra JavaScript" to be executed before global mboxAll settings in v56+ are name spaced. If there are functions declared in "extra JavaScript," they must be prefixed with window .For example:function foo {}Becomes:window.foo = function() {}Any variables that should be globally accessible must also be prefixed with window .
- Added a cookie called "em-disabled" that mbox.js gives to the user if target.js fails to load during delivery. This cookie prevents offers created using the Visual Experience Composer from rendering on the site. Users with this cookie neither see the test content nor get counted in those activity reports. All other offer content (from campaigns in Target Classic for example) will continue to load. The cookie has a lifetime of 30 min from the time of load failure.
mbox version 55
Target Release: 15.1
Release Date: January, 19, 2015
Modifies version 53 with IE fixes.
mbox version 54
Target Release: 14.9.2
Release Date: September 30, 2014
Changes the global mbox implementation to AJAX from document.write. This removes the requirement for the mbox.js file to be the last item in the page's <head> section. This version is only available via API. Clients can download it and use this mbox.js file. Some sites experience content flicker with this implementation, so please validate the integration on your site.
mbox version 53
Target Release: 14.9.1
Release Date: September 14, 2014
Fixed an issue where Target page params do not fire correctly in Internet Explorer.
mbox version 52
Target Release: 14.8
Release Date: August 14, 2014
mboxParameter function now works in Target Standard and Premium.
Fixed an issue that kept Analytics tracking from working in IE 9 & 11. This change only affects users of Analytics.
Now you can pass in parameters as an array, as a JSON object, or as a comma-delimited list (previously supported) to target-global-mbox using the targetPageParams() function.
Renamed M2PcId and everything related to VisitorId.
Allow the defaultDiv of a registered mbox to be cleared.
mbox version 51
Target Release: 14.6
Release Date: June 25, 2014
Fixed a bug that set an incorrect cookie in sites with two characters in their top-level domain.
Fixed a minor bug in mbox.js that caused hashtag values to be returned.
mbox version 50
Improved synchronization between Target Standard and Target Classic.
mbox version 49
Improved Internet Explorer 10 support for nested mboxes.
mbox version 48
Added support for Adobe Analytics as the reporting source for Target.
mbox version 47
mbox.js now supports using a custom global mbox name for Target Standard.
mbox version 46
Added complete support for Experience Cloud visitor ID service for Target Standard's single-line-of-code implementation. This enables server-side Adobe Analytics integration and the Experience Cloud shared profile.
Fixed an issue with delivering content in IE10 in document mode.
mbox version 45
Added complete support for Experience Cloud visitor ID service. This enables server-side Adobe Analytics integration and the Experience Cloud shared profile.
mbox version 44
Added new parameter in URL by mboxVizTarget:
mbox version 43
Added support for Target Standard.
mbox version 42
Added initial support for Experience Cloud shared visitor ID service.
mbox version 41
- Even with x-only setting, disable the first party cookie to improve load time and prevent continuous page refreshesA timeout cookie is set if the call to Target fails to return in time. This is a faster method than using only the 3rd-party cookie. With just the 3rd-party cookie, the page is continually refreshed while waiting for a good response from Target's servers.
- Fixed traffic limitation to occur only when mbox.js is enabledThis issue occurred if a customer had a traffic limitation on their mbox.js, causing the timeout setting to not work. This resulted in the page refreshing while waiting foir a good response from the Target servers.
- Fixed SiteCalyst plugin to always use the Ajax fetcherPrior to this change, there were some situations for users of the Test&Target to SiteCatalyst plugin where, depending on when the plugin loaded, a document.write that would wipe out the page could be triggered.
mbox version 38
Added support for page-based SiteCatalyst to Test&Target integration (must be enabled)
mbox version 37
Encoded URL keys
mbox version 36
Changed mbox to use tt.omtrdc.net
mbox version 35
- Mbox debug is now always remote
- Added the mboxTime parameter. This parameter is the time as the user sees it, in ms since the epoch, GMT. This is only calculated once.
mbox version 34
- Always try to get the latest default div instead of referring to a cached version.This fixes a problem with a cached default content div not being in the DOM due to an mboxUpdate , which provided the content for the default div .
- mbox.getDefaultDiv has a new optional boolean parameter. If true, it returns the current default div. If false, it returns the last cached default div.
- Updated mbox.loaded to support Ajax load
- mboxURL parameter is now encoded using encodeURIComponent rather than escape
- Test whether encodeURIComponent is supported by the browser and show default content if it isn't. Also removed the following mbox.js config options:
- encode\_mbox\_parameters
- mbox\_signal\_support

JavaScript – The Good Parts – Part 6
Posted January 14, 2013on:
The previous post covered how to "curry" functions and some JavaScript gotchas.
This post gives a list of pre-built methods in the standard objects pre-defined in JavaScript. Many of these would be known only to the hardcore users of JavaScripts and this is serve as an eye-opener to the casual users of JavaScript.
This method appends the items to the base array. If the items itself is an array that elements of that array are copied to that of the base array.
var a = ['a', 'b', 'c'];
var b = ['d', 'e', 'f'];
var c = a.concat(b, true);
//c is ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f', true];
array.join(separator) This joins the elements in an array separated by the separator and gives a String.
var a = ['a', 'b', 'c'];
var c = a.join("/"); //c is 'a/b/c/'
array.pop This removes the last element from the array and returns this as the value. The size of array reduces by one.
var a = ['a', 'b', 'c'];
var c = a.pop();
//c = 'c' and a =['a', 'b'];
array.push(item …) This adds the object to the end of the array.
var a = ['a', 'b', 'c'];
var b = ['d', 'e', 'f'];
var c = a.push(b, true);
//c is ['a', 'b', 'c', ['d', 'e', 'f'], true];
Note how this is different from concat. The array "b" has been embedded at index 3 of the array "a". It has not copied the contents of array "b" to "a".
array.reverse() This reverses the values in the array.
var a = ['a', 'b', 'c'];
var b = a.reverse();
//both a and b will be ['c', 'b', 'a']
array.shift() The shift method removes the first element from an array and returns it. If the array is empty it returns undefined.
var a = ['a', 'b', 'c'];
var b = a.shift();
//b is 'a' and a is ['b','c']
array.slice(start, end) This is like substring. Where start is the start position and end is the last but one position that should be copied. If none is specified then it is copied to the end of the array.
var a = ['a', 'b', 'c'];
var b = a.slice(0,1); //b will be ['a'];
var c= a.slice(1); //c will be ['b', 'c']
var d = a.slice(1, 2); //d will be ['b']
array.sort(comparefn) This sorts the array assuming that all the elements are string. If one needs to sort based on some other datatype one can pass a compare function. This function will be passed the two consecutive values and it should return a "-1" if the first is less than the second a "0" if they are equal and a "1" if the first is greater than the second for sorting the elements in an ascending fashion.
array.splice(start, deleteCount, item, …) This method starts deleting "deleteCount" elements from the "start" position and inserts the values in item into this gap.
array.unshift(item …) The unshift method is like the push method, except that it pushes the items onto the front of the array instead of at the end. It returns the array's new length.
var a = ['a', 'b', 'c'];
var r = a.unshift('?', '@');
//a is ['?', '@' ,'a', 'b', 'c'];
//r is 5
function.apply(thisArg, arguments)
This executes the function with "thisArg" treated as the "this" for the function and the "arguments" is passed as the "arguments" to the function.
This converts this number to a string in the exponential form. The optional fractionalDigits controls the number of decimal places. This should be between 0 and 20.
Math.PI.toExponential(0) = 3e+0
Math.PI.toExponential(2) = 3.14e+0
Math.PI.toExponential(7) = 3.1415927e+0
Math.PI.toExponential(16) = 3.1415926535897930e+0
Math.PI.toExponential() = 3.141592653589793e+0
number.toFixed(fractionDigits) This method converts this number to a string in the decimal form. The optional fractionDigits parameter controls the number of decimal places. It should be between 0 and 20. The default is 0.
Math.PI.toFixed(0) = 3
Math.PI.toFixed(2) = 3.14
Math.PI.toFixed(7) = 3.1415927
Math.PI.toFixed(16) = 3.1415926535897930
Math.PI.toFixed() = 3
number.toPrecision(precision) This converts the number to a string in decimal form. The optional precision parameter controls the number of digits of precision. It should be between 1 and 21.
Math.PI.toPrecision(2) = 3.1
