Today it was announced that both Spredfast and Sprinklr, two leading competitors in the social media management platform space, raised $18mm and $15mm, respectively. Spredfast's investment round was led by OpenView Venture Partners, along with existing investors Austin Ventures and InterWest Partners. Sprinklr's comes from prior Battery Ventures and Intel Capital, who started as a client and is now an investment partner as well.
Sprinklr CEO Ragy Thomas saw Spredfast's announcement as "A vote of confidence from the industry as a whole and a positive validation that there is a significant enterprise need and appetite for tools to manage social media conversations in real time and in a consistent manner," while Spredfast CEO Rod Favaron agreed, saying "We congratulate Sprinklr on their funding – it's further validation that the social media management space continues to be seen as a major growth market."
As to whether they see tendencies towards more investment into independent companies or acquisitions, Thomas felt that while "There will be continued M&A activity in the social media management space…We foresee healthy growth and investor appetite for independent companies who are able to innovate at the speed of social." Favaron said "Companies in this market need to have both the resources and the independence to innovate quickly. We have seen several acquisitions this past year with Oracle and Salesforce, but are confident that the companies that will be standing at the end of the day will be ones with a strong team and focused direction."
Sprinklr provides the social foundations for many notable companies such as Microsoft, Samsung, and General Motors, while Spredfast's customers include Oracle, Whole Foods, and Warner Brothers.

Nicholas Kristof, a columnist for The New York Times since 2001, writes op-ed columns that appear twice a week. Mr. Kristof won the Pulitzer Prize two times, in 1990 and 2006. In 2012, he was a Pulitzer finalist in Commentary for his 2011 columns that often focused on the disenfranchised in many parts of the world.
Mr. Kristof grew up on a sheep and cherry farm near Yamhill, Oregon. He graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Harvard College and then studied law at Oxford University on a Rhodes Scholarship, graduating with first class honors. He later studied Arabic in Cairo and Chinese in Taipei.
While working in France after high school, he caught the travel bug and began backpacking around Africa and Asia during his student years, writing articles to cover his expenses.
Mr. Kristof has lived on four continents, reported on six, and traveled to more than 150 countries, plus all 50 states, every Chinese province and every main Japanese island. He jokes that he's one of the very few Americans to be at least a two-time visitor to every member of the so-called Axis of Evil. During his travels, he has had unpleasant experiences with malaria, mobs and an African airplane crash.
After joining The Times in 1984, initially covering economics, he served as a Times correspondent in Los Angeles, Hong Kong, Beijing and Tokyo. He also covered presidential politics and is the author of the chapter on President George W. Bush in the reference book "The Presidents." He later was Associate Managing Editor of the Times, responsible for Sunday editions.
In 1990 Mr. Kristof and his wife, Sheryl WuDunn, then also a Times journalist, won a Pulitzer Prize for their coverage of China's Tiananmen Square democracy movement. They were the first married couple to win a Pulitzer for journalism. Mr. Kristof won a second Pulitzer in 2006, for commentary for what the judges called "his graphic, deeply reported columns that, at personal risk, focused attention on genocide in Darfur and that gave voice to the voiceless in other parts of the world."
He has also won other prizes including the George Polk Award, the Overseas Press Club award, the Michael Kelly award, the Online News Association award and the American Society of Newspaper Editors award. Mr. Kristof has taken a special interest in Web journalism and was the first blogger on The New York Times Web site; he also tweets and has a Facebook fan page and a channel on YouTube.
A documentary about him, "Reporter," aired on HBO in 2010. A January 1997 article that Mr. Kristof wrote about child deaths in the developing world helped lead Bill and Melinda Gates to focus their charitable work on global health, and the article is framed in the gallery of the Gates Foundation.
In his column, Mr. Kristof was an early opponent of the Iraq war, and among the first to warn that we were losing ground to the Taliban in southern Afghanistan. He was among the first to raise doubts about WMD in Iraq, he was the first to report that President Bush's State of the Union claim about Iraq seeking uranium from Africa was contradicted by the administration's own investigation. He has visited the Darfur region more than 10 times. His columns have often focused on global health and poverty and he has also written often about human trafficking.
Mr. Kristof and Ms. WuDunn are authors of "China Wakes: The Struggle for the Soul of a Rising Power" and "Thunder from the East: Portrait of a Rising Asia" and "Half the Sky: Turning Oppression Into Opportunity for Women Worldwide". Mr. Kristof and Ms. WuDunn are the parents of Gregory, Geoffrey and Caroline. Mr. Kristof enjoys running, backpacking, and having his Chinese and Japanese corrected by his children.

Reviews for Makeover Swiss Chicken Supreme(19)
Sort By :
Very tasty! I pounded the chicken to tenderize. I topped with Panko, not crackers and butter. I used more garlic powder and onion powder, not minced onion. I serve it over brown rice.
Like fancy Hawaiin haystacks! I took out the sour cream since my family doesn't eat that and it was still delicious!
I used a homemade "Cream of Something Soup Mix" to make this recipe and it was delicious! Before cooking the the chicken I pounded it with a tenderizer and it practically melted after cooking. I liked the swiss cheese, but I think next time I'd like to try maybe a smoked provolone or a sharp cheddar. I topped the mixture with panko crumbs and no butter before baking and it was delicious!
Made this as stated, however used shredded swiss instead of slices. My family enjoyed this very much served over rice. Next time I think I will try sprinkling cayenne over the chicken to give it more flavor and kick. :)
Good quick recipe! I was able to throw it together after I got home from work. Chicken was very moist. It was hard to believe that this was fairly healthy! It took me closer to 40-45 minutes in baking time, but I might have had thicker chicken breasts. We're not big onion fans, so I'll probably cut down ont he minced onion next time.

You kids have fun.Ultimately, unless we can find a bunch of cool ''free stuff'' to give away, we will never see another Republican president again.But I'm through playing. I just can't do it anymore. Just don't have it in this old body. Click Here if you Like this Comment
The GOP is doomed...because it is not about RINOs or not being "conservative enough". If anything, that will completely kill the party's viability (especially if the people push social conservatism too far). Though we all wish we could go back to the mid 20th Century in many ways, it will NEVER happen this way. You cannot force more extreme views when people are more moderate socially. Fiscally, the party needs to be strongly conservative in line with the Constitution. But you can't put the worms back in the can with regard to certain social "freedoms" by force -- that just alienates people. Many of the TEA parties have lost their original charter to stick to financial issues and the Constitution. That is part of the problem. Unfortunately, rational heads will not prevail here because people want to go back in time too badly and they want it now. Romney shouldn't have lost. I think the fraud was rampant and the main reason why we lost. I know people don't believe it, but it is true. Click Here if you Like this Comment
As on another thread. Romney received fewer votes than McCain. Why did Ohio Republican not vote? Why did Virginia Republicans not vote. Did they think that Obama would be a better President? Did they not connect Obama policies with current problems? How much was the press a factor.These should be the questions that are being asked and answered. Romney was not the problem. GOP voters were the problem. Democrats don't have this problem. They would vote for Maxine Waters if you made her the candidate and the press would support her.Yes, Houston, we have a problem, but it is not how conservative the candidate is.What is the strategy to get voters to connect the dots and to give a darn!Does the Tea Party really believe that a more conservative candidate would have gotten Ohio Republicans to vote?? I don't think that is an issue. Ohio Republicans must not connect high gas prices with Democrat policies.We have a problem. Please focus on the right issue. Click Here if you Like this Comment

Cringe? LEarn nothing? You evidently learned nothing or are part of the problem. the time to keep rolling over is done. We need conservatives and the TEA PARTY is our path. They are our conservative leaders, not the elitists. The republican elite that keep shoving moderate and liberal republicans down our throats needs to be stopped. We do not want a choice between big government and bigger government. We need to take our government back! The Left does not play fair, their rules change with the situation and the outcome is all that matters to them. It does not matter what we do the Left and the media will lambast us and blame us for every one of their failed policies. I am tired of this crap. I do not see a future for my kids.

Tormenting us with the differential between the votes McCain got and those Romney got, at least one blogger has opined that McCain lost about 2 million when Rand Paul's people sat out the 2008 election, and threatened to do the same this time, in what number? And then we read from an evangelical spokesperson that they may have sat out this election because "Romney didn't reach out to them". It wouldn't be hard to find the missing votes in these blocs...Although everyone talks the talk about revering Ronald Reagan and his perceived wisdom, no one seems to find it convenient to recall his "big tent" philosophy. And his being elected either governor or president was no slam dunk. He knew he needed all the votes he could get.Divide and be conquered. Click Here if you Like this Comment

We are cursed with some very, very Stoopid leaders. Romney was up 5 before Christie fell in love with Obama. Remember that. We had it won according to Rasmussen and gallop. Now is not the time to crawl into the cave and become the Akin-Mourdock party. The economy is going to tank. The world is going to be very, very dangerous.

I've been holding my tongue, waiting for the anger and disappointment to wear off.I see the battles from the primaries are still going on here.Against my better judgement, I did what the pragmatic L Dotters said. I held my nose and voted for Romney. Not because I believed he was a good candidate, but because he was acceptable to the "moderates" and "electable". Well, as it turns out he was neither. Thanks to the Republican party foisting yet another milksop candidate on us, we lost and evil continues its purge on the nation.Nobody ever won by fighting a defensive war, and nobody ever won a war by being more civilized than the enemy.If we have a nation left in four years, I would welcome a Conservative Party. To blazes with all the people who say a vote for the third party is a vote for the Dems. Using the fear of that being true, all we have managed to get is spineless losers, whether they won or not.

Evangelicals don't need to be "reached out to." That's the other side. We make our choice and go from there, as we did in great numbers for Mitt.

All it took was a couple of precincts in a couple of counties in each state to bring the state into the Obama column.All day long I have been hearing about the low voter turnout. Not true. I worked a precinct in black/white/latino Louisville in a polling place with five precincts. We opened at 60 a.m. and were overrun all day. Every other precinct worker I know said the same thing. I doubt voter fraud here because we use paper ballots with many checks and balances. But we do have a Dem Secretary of State who is also touting the low turnout to bolster "low" numbers in other states. (I trust no one these days.)Ulstermann has a report tonight. Very interesting because Insider, who I believe is a nom de plume of Ulstermann, is crunching numbers that show high turnout rather than low. Something is very wrong with this election.Back to the battle-ground states that all voted for Obama...I believe he may have overplayed his hand on this one because it just all looks so screwy.But we lost. Romney, like Nixon, will not contest so Obama is now our two term president with a huge agenda and no mandate. Could be troublesome...... Click Here if you Like this Comment
Romney is a good person. We are never going to change the blue states. I would rather go back to the constitution with the states operating according to their citizen's choices. Now we operate according to the choices made by the blue states and imposed on everyone else. Click Here if you Like this Comment 1 person like this.
If Romney had fought 0bama as hard as he fought fellow Republicans in the primary, he might have got somewhere. The Republican party should now focus on getting control of the voting apparatus on the state level. If they could root out the cheating, it would go a long way to leveling the playing field. The Republicans on the federal level need to pick a fearless quick wit to be the GOP spokesperson. Someone to throw the medias feces back at them and articulate some sensible positions.

You all are still swallowing the blue pill. Stop it. The terms Republican, Democrat, Conservative, Moderate, left, right, are meaningless. There are only Progressives (a la Chris Christie). The next election will be between two Progressives, one calling himself a Republican and one calling himself a Democrat. And the one that is most attractive to the masses will be elected. The old paradigm is dead and buried. Stop kvetching over the useless details and the blame game. We lost this nation when we let the Left take over our schools and churches. The battle is no longer about elections, the Left has them sewn up for the foreseeable future. Until we retake the ground we gave up in the last two generations, we will continue to be ruled by the Obamas of the world. It begins at home, in our schools and churches. One by one.

I am starting to wonder what could be wrong with the RepublicanBrand to lose so badly at what should have been an easy win?Maybe they should retire people like Carl Rove and DickMorris who kept telling us it was going to be a landslide?The same goes for Rush Limbaugh.Also people like the Neanderthal Todd Akin didn't help theRepublican brand by opening his big mouth and talkingabout "Legitimate Rape". Romney asked him to step downbut he refused. Last I heard Akin's election went down inflames. No surprise there. What world does that guy live in?I am starting to think we have all been treated to a big doseof Kabuki theater by BOTH parties and the news pundits.About the only thing that happens every year is governmentkeeps getting bigger and taxes keep getting higher.Oy Vey!!!

Before we eat ourselves like the Gingham Dog and the Calico Cat....think about the effect the media is having. It painted and destroyed Sarah's future. It painted and destroyed many of the GOP candidates in the primary. It painted and destroyed Romney while whitewashing and remaking Obama. Is there anyone out there who will compose a list of sponsors of the main stream media (TV, newspapers, radio) so we can write them and boycott them? The media has to be exposed, destroyed, and rebuilt before anything or anyone has success. Look how we have resigned ourselves into saying matter-of-factly, that our candidate needs to be up by at least 7-8 points to counter the media's attacks, etc. Let's declare war on the media!

We have allowed social issues to hijack the more fundamental ones about economy and the role of gov't. In a horrible economy that Obama presided over, tell me why we had all these distractions about abortion abortion abortion, birth control birth control birth control, rape rape rape rape rape, back to abortion abortion abortion. I do think this allowed an opening for the Libs to cast it as a "war on women" that our party was waging, and I do think it cost us that precious 2%-3% of votes that we needed. Not only from women but from young people who are thinking, DO NOT take away my (or my girlfriend's) birth control pills! I know this was not accurate for them to think, but the focus on reproductive issues allowed us to be villainized to an extreme degree.

Not Our Children!: Toy Doll Promotes Islam
A bunch of parents think a Fisher-Price doll is promoting Islam. The doll in question, the Little Mommy Real Loving Baby Cuddle and Coo Doll is not only poorly named, but spouts religious messages (as alleged by previously mentioned soccer moms). The doll is only supposed to make cooing sounds and say mama, but many retarded parents believe the doll is saying "Islam is the light" and "Satan is King". I'm not making this stuff up folks, people really believe this. And also, that the world is round. You stupid f***ers, you make me laugh!

Um? Dollar General most certainly does NOT sell everything for $1. Have you ever been there? Prices range from $1 to sometimes $10 or more. Dollar General is most certainly not a "dollar store".
Dollar stores like Dollar Tree sell everything for $1 but not all of it is overly good stuff either. AFAIC, you should never pay more than 18-20 cents per AA or AAA alkaline. Thats usually what you can get them on sale for though rarely if ever Duracells or Energizers. As I'd said, Rayovacs are just as good and usually highly discounted. Once in a while I see panasonics and/or kodac's on sale and these seem to be pretty good batteries too. And yeah, some store brands are pretty good too but you need to do your homework before you plunk down your money. Places like Costco and BJ's have their own store brands and these tend to be cheap all the time and usually really good too. |
the best cheap batteries are from costco. they have also been ranked high from consumer reports. what a great deal!!!!
Buy it now even if you don't need it. You will regret it in a few months when you really need it. Never pass up an AMAZING deal! |
Better Battery Price at Amazon
Seems like Amazon has a better per-battery price on "Maxell 723443 LR6 AA Cell 48 Pack Box Battery" at $9.32, or per item at $0.19.Eligible for FREE Super Saver Shipping on orders over $25.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Christmas is almost here, and some area stores have been visited by layaway angels making the season merrier for those in need.
Layaway angels are people who enter a store and pay off layaway accounts, usually for customers who are purchasing toys and other items for children.
The Kmart on Patrick Street in Charleston has had visits from two layaway angels since Monday, said Billy Rasnake, store manager.
The first paid off eight accounts totaling about $1,200 on Monday, he said. The second came in Wednesday and paid off three layaways totaling about $400, Rasnake said.
Both angels wished to remain anonymous, and both paid accounts with clothing for small children and toys.
The manager expected another angel Thursday evening.
"He called us and wanted us to find some accounts that needed to be paid off," Rasnake said.
Rasnake thought this angel would pay about $1,000 worth of layaways.
Anonymous Santas also have visited the Kanawha City Kmart, said John Hudson, operations manager.
"We've had two layaway angels come in so far," he said. "One came in a few days ago and one came in last week."
Each paid about $1,000.
"It's terrific," Hudson said. "It's just great to see people do this."
The angels at Kanawha City also chose to pay accounts that had children's toys and clothes, he said.
Hudson said the store likely would not contact the people whose layaway accounts were paid, opting instead to wait for them to come in.
"We like for them to be surprised," he said.
Some families in Vienna in Wood County also were

The Collected Poems of Lucille Clifton 1965-2010 will appeal to anyone with a love, or even a fondness, for the written word. Clifton, a national treasure and former poet laureate of Maryland, wrote about everyday life with an economy of words and an abundance of spirit. Her humanity pulses on every page. But before you dive into these engrossing poems, be sure to read Toni Morrison's insightful foreward.
My favorite biography of the year was D.T. Max's take on David Foster Wallace's brilliant and troubled life. Every Love Story Is a Ghost Story is a straightforward and moving account of the now-iconic writer's rise through the ranks of contemporary literature and academia, while struggling with the mental illness that led him to take his life. Along the way, Max notes how John Barth played a key role in Wallace's development as a writer.
The best reading experience I had was getting completely absorbed in graphic novelist Chris Ware's Building Stories. Housed in a gameboard-like box, it uses hardbound books, newspaper broadsheets, booklets, and even a folded gameboard to tell stories that, told in this manner, set the magic of discovery against the mundane aspects of everyday life. It's an elaborate art project disguised as a book—the ultimate, anti-ebook.
And I enjoyed reading Michael Chabon's Telegraph Avenue, but the audiobook is even better. Read by The Wire's Clarke Peters, it takes awhile to get going, but Peters brings the characters to life. Let's hope he does more audiobooks in the future.

Eurographics Workshop on Rendering 1997, 23-34.
Blending of textured depth meshes using soft z-buffering.
Abstract: Modeling arbitrary real objects is difficult and rendering textured models typically does not result in realistic images. We describe a new method for displaying scanned real objects, called view-based rendering. The method takes as input a collection of colored range images covering the object and creates a collection of partial object models. These partial models are rendered separately using traditional graphics hardware and blended together using various weights and soft z-buffering. We demonstrate interactive viewing of real, non-trivial objects that would be difficult to model using traditional methods.
Hindsight: Essentially, this approach performs runtime blending of precomputed textured depth meshes (TDMs) used as impostors. It is yet another interesting point in the broad space of image-based rendering techniques.

Fire Safety in the Melting Pot How can safety professionals best reach immigrant communities?
NFPA Journal, May/June 2011
I grew up in the fifties and sixties in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Back then, the city's population was fewer than 80,000, and there wasn't much diversity among its citizens.
March - April 2011 This is a big year for Sparky the Fire Dog, and you're invited to the party
January - February 2011 Calling all Rolf Jensen Award nominees
November - December 2010 NFPA's Electric Vehicle Safety Program for first responders
September - October 2010 Why smoke alarm installation programs work better wtih firefighter support
July - August 2010 A fire educator's daycare adventure + a heads up on Fire Prevention Week
May - June 2010 A new tool for your fire sprinkler education efforts: Sprinklers are green
Today, Sioux Falls' roughly 155,000 inhabitants are much more racially and ethnic diverse. New census data shows that minorities make up 15 percent of the population, and a recent story in the Sioux Falls Argus Leader reports that there are students from 51 language backgrounds in the local school district. Many of the newcomers are refugees who arrived in the United States from countries as varied as Cambodia and Sudan, often with little preparation for their immersion in American culture. Many do not speak English.
This kind of demographic shift poses particular challenges to fire safety professionals. In addition to language barriers, these new citizens may have cultural issues related to fire that safety professionals are unaware of. Larry Gray, public information officer for the fire department in Cleveland, Ohio, says that the city's diverse population includes a growing number of residents from Somalia who did not use stoves in their home country, and that fires and injuries have occurred among people unfamiliar with their use.
Cooking isn't the only problem. In December 2008, seven immigrants from Liberia, including three children, died in a fire in Philadelphia, the result of a kerosene heater that exploded when it was accidentally fueled with gasoline. In February, another space heater fire in Philadelphia began when its electric cord, which had furniture placed on it, frayed and sparked. Rescue was delayed because members of the family, which was Cambodian, did not call the fire department and tried to fight the blaze themselves. Two children died, and at least seven other members of the household were injured, four of them children.
"Our biggest challenges in reaching immigrants are finding the pockets where they live and getting them to trust firefighters or people in uniform," says Gray. "It is difficult to break the mistrust. We found that we needed to befriend a leader in the community to build trust."
Battalion Chief Derrick Sawyer, head of the Fire Prevention Division for the Philadelphia Fire Department, says another strategy is to partner with cultural associations and to reach people at church. "We worked with the Liberian community by giving presentations on smoke alarms and fire prevention at their churches," he says. The department also partnered with the Cambodian Association of Greater Philadelphia, and talked with children at the school attended by the victims of the February fire.
While some communities, including Sioux Falls, address the challenge by producing their own home fire safety materials in multiple languages, many fire departments use NFPA's easy-to-read prevention brochures, which are available in an array of languages and feature illustrations of people from a variety of cultures. The Cleveland Fire Department, which had an exhibit at a recent News Year's celebration in the Vietnamese community, included NFPA's fire safety handouts — in Vietnamese — on its table. "We ran out of copies and had to go print more," says Gray.
To download NFPA's brochure, visit Cooking Handouts.

Phoenix, Ariz. (March 18, 2009)—Today nearly 3,000 community bankers and industry leaders gathered for the opening of the Independent Community Bankers of America (ICBA) National Convention and Techworld at the Phoenix Convention Center. The conference, which is the largest and most vital community banking industry event of its kind in the nation, runs through March 21.
"The ICBA National Convention and Techworld is a tremendous forum for community bankers and industry leaders to exchange ideas, discover the latest trends and learn about new developments," said Cynthia L. Blankenship, ICBA chairman and vice chairman and chief operating officer of Bank of the West, Grapevine, Texas. "Each community bank plays a vital role in supporting its local community, especially during these economically challenging times. This year's convention is a perfect time for community bankers to come together to try and find solutions that will benefit their towns and cities across the country."
Highlights of the convention include remarks from national newsmakers such as Federal Reserve Board Chairman Ben Bernanke, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Chairman Sheila Bair and Office of Thrift Supervision Acting Director Scott Polakoff.
Other featured speakers include world-renowned journalist Sam Donaldson, economist Alan Blinder, and artist and motivational speaker Erik Wahl.
Attendees can choose from more than 60 educational seminars on all facets of the community banking industry, as well as a variety of networking events.

Police have come under attack in a third night of disturbances in Belfast.
Officers were pelted with fireworks and bricks in the Carlisle Circus area in the north of the city.
Riots around the same location over recent nights have left more than 60 officers injured. Police used water canon and baton rounds during serious violence on Sunday and Monday which has been sparked by fresh tensions over parades.
Officers have called for politicians to do more to calm the sectarian disturbances which loyalist paramilitaries have been accused of orchestrating.
And with a major loyalist parade planned for September 29 the Police Service of Northern Ireland Assistant Chief Constable Will Kerr said: "Northern Ireland cannot afford an 11th hour solution." The senior officer expressed fears that lives could be lost if the issue is not resolved.
Stormont leaders have pledged to help tackle the parade tension that surfaced after restrictions were placed on loyalist marchers who had played offensive tunes outside a Catholic church near the scene of the riots.
On Monday night 15 police officers were injured during serious disorder in the area. Three were taken to hospital during trouble that saw rioters throw 15 petrol bombs at police lines in the Carlisle Circus area. Rioters also hurled stones, bottles, fireworks and rocks and hijacked a van in Denmark Street on Monday night before pushing it towards police lines.
Crowds again gathered in Denmark Street on Tuesday before violence broke out. Police have closed roads leading to the area.
Terry Spence, chairman of the Northern Ireland Police Federation, which represents rank and file officers, said: "Their bravery and courage is in stark contrast to that of the cowardly thugs responsible for trying to murder them."
The latest disorder came after 47 Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) officers were injured on Sunday night during riots linked to a republican parade nearby and a loyalist protest.

What it prevents: HPV is a group of 40 human papillomaviruses that can be transmitted through sexual contact — it's estimated by the CDC that at least 50 percent of sexually active men and women have been infected by the time they're 50. While most infections will go away without treatment, the vaccine protects against the four types of HPV that are most commonly linked to more serious conditions. Types 16 and 18 can cause cervical cancer as well as other types of cancer. Types 6 and 11 cause up to 90 percent of genital warts. Since the vaccine only works if it's given before a person is infected with HPV, it's recommended for girls at 11 to 12, before they become sexually active. In 2011, the CDC began recommending that all 11- to 12-year-old boys receive the vaccine as well.
When it's given: The HPV vaccine is given in three doses in kids aged 11 to 12 years old, though it can be given as young as nine years old. The second shot is given two months after the first; the third is given six months after the first.
What you may have heard: There have been several claims that the HPV vaccine can cause different severe reactions. The CDC has not determined that any of these reported conditions can truly be linked to the vaccine. Keep in mind that the vaccine has been tested in more than 11,000 women and found to be safe.
Risk of a reaction: Mild side effects include redness, soreness, itching or swelling at the injection site. One in 10 may experience a mild fever. More rarely (1 in 65), a child may experience a moderate fever.

Wheel upgrade choice
Morning all,
I'm shopping around for some nice wheels for christmas. I've narrowed it down to:
Mavic Ksyrium Equipe in white (look great)
Quest Keswick in black (bit lighter than the Mavics, these are a re-badge of Pro-Lite Braccianos since Pro-Lites don't seem to be that easy to get hold of but Quest are in the UK and advertising the Keswicks in CW)
Handbuild - I live near Will's Wheels in Stockport, I don't know what they will do for the £260-ish that the other choices cost.
Just bought myself the 2013, Mavic Ksyrium Elite S, Wheelset, they come with Mavic Tyres; and they're 30, grams lighter in weight than the 2012, Elites. I'm extremely pleased with them. Had a cracking deal with my LBS, put a new Ultegra 11/28, cassette on the wheels, also came from LBS, as a good deal.

CRC have got the Bracciano's for £239 which is a steal - I have the 2011 version and they've been great.

5th November 2012 - 19:21
@mostyn - nice deal, but I can't make the jump to the elites, equipes is about the limit.
@hatter, I note the black ones are still £300 - how do the silver ones look? I can't help thinking it will look retro, and a bit odd on a carbon frame?

Well after nipping into a LBS today, I've ended up with a pair of one-ride-old white ksyrium equipes that were going for £200 with warranty. So, now I need to decide what accompany them with. I'm thinking of tyres colour-co-ordinated with bar tape. So, red's a bit obvious. Current thinking is either:
Celeste green
Suggestions? (both for colour and products which provide those colours)
By the way, the bike is black with black group and finishing kit, and white transfers.

Michelin, Schwalbe, Tri Comp, Red bar tape requires : Red stripe tyres, Depending on bike colour scheme.

Handbuild, no question.
It will always be better (assuming a reasonable level of competency of course).
Go and tell them your budget and see what they can do.
Also what do you want the wheels for, what bike do you ride, your weight - I don't see how anyone can even offer an opinion without knowing some basic facts.
Is it about a bicycle ?

We provide a suggested paint failure checklist for gathering information about the building. Green links show where you are. © Copyright 2014 InspectApedia.com, All Rights Reserved. PAINT FAILURE CHECKLIST - SITE HISTORY Related to Paint FailuresWe provide a detailed site checklist used when inspecting buildings with peeling, flaking, or other paint problems. We include photographs of paint failures on buildings and more photos of forensic paint laboratory examination of samples of failed paint useful to assist in diagnosing the probable cause of each type of paint failure.
