At the nude beach, I wanted to see wrinkles and sagging bits, hair tangling where you never see it tangling in modern porn. I never stared, but I'd glance discreetly and register. My looking was always connected to the process of affirming that I, too, was human.

Capita Stairmaster Extreme Snowboard : 152cm
Park, pipe, jibs, jumps, or just hauling ass on groomed runs, the Stairmaster Extreme is one of the most versatile traditional camber freestyle boards on the market. As a Transworld SNOWboarding's Top Ten Good Wood award winner, this board will do it all. It's gearedtoward a progressive park shredder that doesn't want to break the bank, but is looking for more performance than the standard Stairmaster. It features an epoxy glass configuration, sintered base, and new lowered cambered construction so it's fast, strong, and has mad-pop off park jumps. Combine that with a specially designed dampening system placed along the edge between the inserts, and these boards yield enhanced impact resistance as well.
The Capita Stairmaster Extreme Snowboard Features:
+ DS SELECT RFC SUSTAINABLE DUAL Core
+ Die Cut Sidewalls with 1.5mm Dampening System
+ Custom Weave – E Class Fiberglass Configuration
+ Wax Infused Rotation Sintered Speed Base
+ Die Cut + Silkscreened Base Graphics
+ PLT Topsheet Technology
+ 360 Degree Steel Edges
+ 4 x 2 Inserts

If you are using any Radio Equipment or have any antennas in operation at your house then it would be a good idea to Install a ground rod next to the generator and wire it to the generator.
That would help to eliminate any RFI produced by the generator, Noise normally heard on HF Frequencies.
It would also provide better lightening protection for your house, Just in case one of your Radio Antennas get struck by lightening.
Your antennas should be grounded properly also.
That may not be in the NEC® code, But rather something that the ARRL® would recommend.

I was recently helping a disabled Vietnam veteran with a not so unusual problem. He wanted to be able to watch live streaming sports events for free. His favorite free streaming live sports website now showed a frightening image stating that the domain had been seized by ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) for copyright infringement. Since he was living on his disability income, money was in short supply and the various legitimate subscription websites were beyond his means.
I frequently hear about Internet users who always clean all of their cookies, citing fears of privacy issues or identity theft. If I ask some of those users what an Internet cookie is, I receive a variety of replies indicating a multiplicity of definitions varying from somewhat accurate to wildly inaccurate. There is equal misunderstanding about the functions of cookies and the degree of risk they pose to the user.

Ho-oh, beause i ran out of ultra balls

Ho-oh, beause i ran out of ultra balls
Have always 100 with me since then
I rarely use Master Balls in the game. I kinda like the challenge of fighting Legendary Pokemon without resorting to a Master Ball. That being said, in HGSS I haven't caught Mewtwo, Ho-Oh, Entei, or Raikou yet in my Soul Silver and I know there are many more Legendary Pokemon in Soul Silver and Heart Gold so I'll just use it on the one that gives me the most trouble. Probably Mewtwo or Ho-oh.
Parena or Serecham both equal Serena+Pancham!
Saved it till I faced Mewtwo
"Dream 2 Defy! Extreme is not a style but a way of life."-Jeffery Nero Hardy
My girlfriend encountered Entei 1 time and caught it with a Heavy Ball on her 1st try, She has 2 Masterballs now. I don't think i'm going to even use my Masterball though.

Groudon or Kyogre because they can use rest.
Latios in Soulsilver.When I first met him,he had a Sassy nature >_< So I took him out and challenged the Elite 4 again.Second time he had a Rash nature,which is certainly better.
I don't like using Master Balls. I prefer to catch all my Pokemon in regular Poke Balls, unless it's just some random Pokemon that I want to catch for an HM Slave or something.

FS: Lampent, Pumpkaboo, Spiritomb
I have claimed Dragonite!
5 IV Pokemon
Raikou. As I knew how obnoxious roaming pokemon would be to catch, I thought he would be a good choice.
I used it on Lugia.
Please check the signature yours, you are using way too many large file sized images, at most one of those gifs would fit, two already breaks the 500 kB limit.

Spoiler:- Credit:
I used it on Mewtwo
please try again next time
I haves claimed PorygonZ! (Not a typo)
I think it was either rakiou or lugia..??
I always saved my masterballs for roaming pokemons. Used on an Entei (Why did they make his theme song shorter than the other two?).
I think I will use them on Entei or Raikou.. I still need to catch them. <.>
Ho-Oh is what i caught with the masterball

Friday Poll: Hackers' response to Sony breach fair?
When I first signed up for a PlayStation Network account years ago, never did it occur to me that my personal information would end up in the wrong hands. A wide-scale breach of a major game network of that size had never really happened before. Gamers safely played under a digital umbrella--now an illusion--of a secure network, thinking Sony was large, powerful, and had the resources to thwart any attack.
Then down came the rain--hard--and washed the illusion away.
The next blow, should it happen, could prove to be one of the worst public relations disasters to ever strike a consumer electronics company. Hackers say they have access to some of Sony's servers and plan to publicize all or some of the information they can copy from those servers. This may include consumers' credit card details. (A source tells CNET that this group of hackers claims to have access to Sony's servers, which are different from the servers already hacked to expose more than 77 million user accounts.) … Read more

Coupons are ubiquitous in your local newspaper, magazines, and now even in online stores. OpenCart allows you to easily create coupons that you can apply to your customers, products or services. The following article shows how to create a coupon in OpenCart 1.5.
Coupon Name | given name for the coupon (e.g. "Free Shipping Coupon") |
Code | Code that the customer will enter in in order to get discount |
Type | type of discount - percentage or fixed amount |
Discount | Numerical value of discount (percentage or currency amount) |
Total Amount | Minimum cost condition to permit coupon use |

Free Shipping |
Yes/No - is this set for free shipping? (we still have to pay for it, but customer's transaction would be free. |
Category | Category from the products Catalog |
Products | Specific product for which the coupon will apply |
Date Start | Beginning of the discount coupon period |
Date End | End of the discount coupon period |

Status | Enabled/Disabled - option to allow for coupon to active |
With the options in the INSERT screen, you can clearly define the coupon. This allows you to provide discounts to your customer or on a product. Your coupons should typically have a start and end date. Additionally, make sure that you use a code for the coupon that would not easily be pre-determined. To the left is an example of the view that customer sees when using a coupon.

In the recent period of economic stress, Virginia h accumulated a backlog of improve- population. ments nee to serve adequately its growing Board of Visitors of Virginia Page 3 Commonwealth University believes the bond issue represents a realistic means for Virginia to provide these essential facilities in a responsible manner. Two projects included in the bond issue will re- spond to specific needs of students already enrolled and to patients now under treatment at Virginia Commonwealth University. One is an instructional facility for music and theatre; the other is expanded facilities for cancer treatment and care. Students enrolled in the areas of the performing arts occupy structures built in 1905 which are now dismally sub- standard. Our cancer facilities are crowded at a time when more than 20,000 Virginians will require treatment for cancer this year. Because of our belief in Virginia, our confidence in the leadership of the Governor of Virginia and our interest in the generations of Virginians who will greatly benefit from the availability of all of these facilities in the years ahead, the Board of Visitors of Virginia Commonwealth University pledges its strong support to the Governor and to the General Assembly of Virginia in this critically needed bond project.

It will be necessary for everyone in education to work for the entire bond package and not just the education section. Dr. Blanton stated that he hoped the VCU Board would pass a resolution in support of the proposed referendum. (See 5/19/77 Board of Visitors Minutes). 4. Legislative Luncheon and Tour Dr. Willett reported that the Governor and members of the Legislature would be touring MCV/VCU on May 26. In addition, VCU will be hosting a luncheon on the 26th at 12 noon in Oliver Hall. All members of the Board were invited to attend. 5. Dr. Beller's Organization Dr. Willett reported that a search was now underway to seek a replacement for Mr. Holmes as Vice President for Finance. In addition, the organization called for a position to be responsible for the entire planning effort coordination and information management. 6. Development Dr. Willett reported that the administration planned to fill a position that was already established -- Vice President for Development. Once this person is on board, we will begin to move to set up the rest of the staff. It is necessary to title this position "vice president" to add some prestige to the position. The other major State universities have established similar positions. T. EDWARD TEMPLE Theodore Edward Temple, formerly a member of this Board of Visitors, was one of the College of William and Mary's most distinguished and devoted alumni. His death on March 6, 1977, left an immeasurable void in the affairs of Virginia government, public service and higher edu- cation. Mr. Temple became the eminent President of Virginia Common- wealth University in July, 1975, and quickly earned the admiration and respect of all of those who seek to sustain and advance the cause of higher education in America. He was perceived as a masterful administrator and a superlative teacher, as well as an effective communicator. As a member of the Class of 1937 at William and Mary, Mr. Temple earned the Master of Education degree from the College in 1965. He re- ceived the College's honorary Doctor of Laws degree in May, 1975, in recognition of his outstanding leadership and service to the Commonwealth of Virginia. The Board of Visitors of the College of William and Mary shares in the sense of loss that has been felt by his friends and colleagues every- where and pays sincere tribute to Mr. Temple's achievements, his ability, and his great wisdom. BE IT RESOLVED, That the Board of Visitors places on its Minutes this memorial resolution to its former member and colleague, and directs the Secretary to transmit the same to members of his immediate family and to the Board of Visitors of Virginia Commonwealth University. Adopted by the Board Visitors College of William and Mary March 18-19, 1977 Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch... I N M E M O R I A M T. Edward Temple A poet once penned some words which somehow seem peculiarly appropriate to our thoughts today. Among other things he said 1f you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue It is not a common privilege to walk Life's way with such a person for they are all too few. But this congregation and, in a more intimate way, the members of this Administrative Board, have been enriched by such a fellowship for some years past. Now God in His Infinie Wisdom and Love has called Ed Temple home and we walk no more with him on this earth. Physically and mentally he was a man of large stature. But the true source of his greatness lay in the world of the Spirit. For he was a true Son of God who, by choice, walked closely with his Maker all his days. Ed was a gentle man, a loving man, a wise man, a tender man, a patient man, a natural leader of men. But above all, he was a Christian Gentleman who loved his fellowmen and served his Father in Heaven faithfully. Herein lay his greatness. Truly he talked with crowds--all kinds-of crowds--hostile crowds, angry crowds, curious crowds, seeking crowds--and kept his virtue. Truly he walked with Kings-- men in high places--governors, administrators, bishops, leaders in all walks of life--and never lost "The Common touch." We cannot find adequate words to express our sense of loss and yet he would the Lord. We can be sure that he would say to us - Shed no tear - 0 shed no teat! The flower will broom another year. Weep no mote - 0 weep no mote! Young bud's sleep in the toot's white cote. be the first to tell us that all things work .together. for good to those who love In placing these poor words of ours upon the records to preserve our gratitude to our Father God for the privilege of having known and worked with Ed Temple, it seems appropriate that we rededicate ourselves to the principles by which he lived, and which made him great, and commit all that we have and hope to be to the service of the God he loved and served throughout his life. And when the day comes that we walk into the Sunset let us so live that we may be assured that we shall meet again in that land beyond the river. We rest assured that Tennyson expressed Ed Temple's faith in these words Sunset and evening star, And one clear call for me, And may there be no moaning of the When I put out to sea. But such a tide a4 moving seems asleep, Too full for sound and foam, When that which drew from out the boundIess deep Turns again home, Twilight and evening bell, And age/ that the dark: And may .there be no sadness s of farewell When I embark: For 'tho from out our bourne of time and pace The flood may bear me far., I hope to see my Pi tot face to face When I have crossed the ban. Amen!

With West seeking recount, Murphy hits up donors for 'Victory Protection Fund'
by George Bennett | November 8th, 2012With U.S. Rep. Allen West, R-Palm Beach Gardens, going to court to seek a recount in hopes of overturning Democrat Patrick Murphy 's apparent narrow victory, Murphy is sending a fundraising appeal to donors.
Says a Murphy e-mail: "When other campaigns have been faced with similiar situations, they have been burdened with legal bills and lengthy and expensive fights that could go on for weeks — months even. We need urgent resources for our Victory Protection Fund to make sure we can protect this victory. We would not be asking for more funds if it was not so urgent."
Murphy raised about $4 million for the congressional District 18 race, but tells contributors in the e-mail that "We threw everything we had at winning in the last few days."

My new favourite
This is now my regular loaf. I think it's lovely for sandwiches and toast. Would highly recommend.

Too much sugar
I'm fully aware that you need sugar to activate yeast but there is too much added to this product. Due to this I'll be looking for alternatives in the future.

Nice toast!
Thick slices and good crispy toast, my son loves it also as sandwiches - an all round good loaf.

Re Sugar in bread
To the reviewer who asked, you need sugar in bread for the yeast to rise, whence most of the sugar is converted into CO2. It works out at a fraction of an ounce per slice - 0.05 of an ounce, to be precise - so you needn't worry about ODing on sugar!

Updated: 3:23 a.m. Sunday, March 24, 2013 | Posted: 7:57 a.m. Saturday, March 23, 2013
By Breaking News Staff
A winter storm warning will go into effect for most of southwest Ohio this morning when another blast of winter is expected to hit the region.
The warnings, issued by the National Weather Service on Saturday afternoon, will be in effect from 8 a.m. Sunday to 2 p.m. Monday. All counties but Clinton and Warren are affected. Those areas will be under a winter storm watch during that timeframe.
Snow will arrive to the south and west on this morning. Many areas will wait until the afternoon and evening before snow starts to fall.
Areas south of I-70 will likely see a bit of snow mixing with rain through midday as temperatures rise a bit above freezing. After sunset, everyone will begin to change over to snow as temperatures drop.
"Most roads will be fine up to this point" said Storm Center 7 meteorologist McCall Vrydaghs. "The heaviest of snow is expected Sunday night into early Monday morning with possible accumulation of 4 to 8 inches by sunrise."
Slippery roads will be a major concern for the morning commute, according to Vrydaghs. Breezy conditions and above freezing temperatures in the afternoon will improve roads a bit.
Snow showers are expected through the day Monday, leaving up to an additional 1 or 2 inches in spots. Roads will likely refreeze overnight Monday causing slick roads Tuesday morning.
Light snow showers linger on Tuesday and a dusting is possible. Vrydaghs said total accumulations between Sunday and Monday are as follows:
3 to 6 inches Southeast of Dayton
5 to 8 inches for Dayton and North
Possible 7 to 10 inches in areas to the far north (Mercer, Auglaize, Shelby and Logan counties)
Temperatures all three days will start in the 20s with highs in the 30s, Vrydaghs said. The area could see winds between 10-20 mph both Sunday and Monday producing wind chills in the teens to start and 20s in the afternoon.

The Talon Hard Shell Case for iPhone 4, this version with beautiful artistic print finish, is an extremely affordable way to both protect and personalize your iPhone 4. Ally already looked at the solid color versions, and these are the same except for the artistic prints:
Compared to more expensive cases the Talon doesn't have the same level of fit and finish. The edges are somewhat rough. The plastic also isn't particularly durable. If you put it on and leave it on, you wont have any issues. If you want to take it off and put it on repeatedly, you might crack it. (Though for $15 you could buy several).
Since the case goes all the way around to the front, you can put your iPhone 4 face down without worrying about scratching your precious screen. It also goes all the way around the dock port so you might have trouble with thicker 3rd party cables like car adapters.
Overall, just like Ally said, the Talon Hard Shell Case for iPhone 4 is a great way to add fun and color to your device for under $15. It's available now from the TiPb iPhone 4 accessory store.
This case is all about looks and in that category it delivers in spades. However it lacks in the durability department. Then again, don't they say it is better to look good than feel good?
[gallery link="file" columns="2"]
I like these cases, how the front snaps on to the back. Might have to get one sometime, I've wanted one ever since I was confused by how you got the case off my friend's Droid Incredible. He then showed me and I was like woah! that's pretty awesome. I immediately wondered if there were any for the iPhone. Nice.
The tree case could allow me to pretend I have a white iPhone 4 ;) I had a Starry Night sticker/skin-really like that look, too.
Great video Georgia, as always! I just thought of a way to test iPhone / iPad screen protectors. Sprinkle a little bird seed on the screen and put it in your bird's cage. See if the screen protector can withstand birdie's pecks. (Well OK, maybe that's not such a tough test...)
That is my first time I've visited here. I discovered a lot of fascinating info inside your web site. From the quantity of comments in your posts, I guess I am not the only 1! hold up the remarkable operate.

Abstract: Microcystins (MC), cyanobacterial peptide hepatotoxins, comprise more than 100 different variants. They are rather polar molecules but some variants contain hydrophobic amino acid residues in the highly variable parts of the molecule. In MC-LF and MC-LW, the more hydrophobic phenylalanine (F) and tryptophan (W), respectively, have replaced arginine (R) in MC-LR. Depending on the structure, microcystins are expected to have different in vivo toxicity and bioavailability, but only a few studies have considered the toxic properties of the more hydrophobic variants. The present study shows that MC-LF and MC-LW have more pronounced cytotoxic effects on Caco-2 cells as compared to those of MC-LR. Treatment of Caco-2 cells with MC-LW and especially MC-LF showed clear apoptotic features including shrinkage and blebbing, and the cell–cell adhesion was lost. An obvious reduction of cell proliferation and viability, assessed as the activity of mitochondrial dehydrogenases, was observed with MC-LF, followed by MC-LW and MC-LR. Cytotoxicity was quantified by measuring lactate dehydrogenase leakage. The more hydrophobic MC-LW and MC-LF induced markedly enhanced lactate dehydrogenase leakage compared to controls and MC-LR, indicating that the plasma membrane was damaged. All of the three toxins examined inhibited protein phosphatase 1, with MC-LF and MC-LW to a weaker extent compared to MC-LR. The higher toxic potential of the more hydrophobic microcystins could not be explained by the biophysical experiments performed. Taken together, our data show that the more hydrophobic microcystin variants induce higher toxicity in Caco-2 cells.

Here I introduce Minju Kim, the designer who won the H&M Design Award 2013. She seems so excited about fashion; so in love with fashion and I wish famous designers nowadays could share the same excitement rather than just "pumping" out products so they could get revenue.
There has been a lack of creativity in the world, and from my point of view, people are just following the crowd with what other people are wearing.
I am not saying that the norm is bad, because it is accepted; but if you want to be an individual in this society, step up to the plate and be like Minju who just showcases her art and is organic because it represents her originality.

Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs)Contact: Denise Page 517-335-6969Agency: Environmental QualityTOTAL MAXIMUM DAILY LOADS (TMDLs) When a lake or stream does not meet Water Quality Standards (WQS), a study must be completed to determine the amount of a pollutant that can be put in a waterbody from point sources and nonpoint sources and still meet WQS, including a margin of safety. A TMDL is used as a short hand acronym to describe the process used to determine how much pollutant load a lake or stream can assimilate. Frequently Asked Questions What are Water Quality Standards? Water Quality Standards are state rules established to protect the Great Lakes, the connecting waters, and all other surface waters of the state. These rules define the water quality goals for a lake or stream. The goals are in three areas: 1. Uses of the lake or stream, such as swimming and fishing; 2. Safe levels to protect the uses, such as the minimum oxygen level needed for fish to live; 3. Procedures to protect high quality waters.

In computer networking, the transport layer or layer 4 provides end-to-end communication services for applications[1] within a layered architecture of network components and protocols. The transport layer provides convenient services such as connection-oriented data stream support, reliability, flow control, and multiplexing.
Transport layers are contained in both the TCP/IP model (RFC 1122),[2] which is the foundation of the Internet, and the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model of general networking. The definitions of the transport layer are slightly different in these two models. This article primarily refers to the TCP/IP model, in which TCP is largely for a convenient application programming interface to internet hosts, as opposed to the OSI-model definition of the transport layer.
The most well-known transport protocol is the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). It lent its name to the title of the entire Internet Protocol Suite, TCP/IP. It is used for connection-oriented transmissions, whereas the connectionless User Datagram Protocol (UDP) is used for simpler messaging transmissions. TCP is the more complex protocol, due to its stateful design incorporating reliable transmission and data stream services. Other prominent protocols in this group are the Datagram Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP) and the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP).
There are many services that can be optionally provided by a transport-layer protocol, and different protocols may or may not implement them.
- Connection-oriented communication: It is normally easier for an application to interpret a connection as a data stream rather than having to deal with the underlying connection-less models, such as the datagram model of the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) and of the Internet Protocol (IP).
- Same order delivery: The network layer doesn't generally guarantee that packets of data will arrive in the same order that they were sent, but often this is a desirable feature. This is usually done through the use of segment numbering, with the receiver passing them to the application in order. This can cause head-of-line blocking.
- Reliability: Packets may be lost during transport due to network congestion and errors. By means of an error detection code, such as a checksum, the transport protocol may check that the data is not corrupted, and verify correct receipt by sending an ACK or NACK message to the sender. Automatic repeat request schemes may be used to retransmit lost or corrupted data.
- Flow control: The rate of data transmission between two nodes must sometimes be managed to prevent a fast sender from transmitting more data than can be supported by the receiving data buffer, causing a buffer overrun. This can also be used to improve efficiency by reducing buffer underrun.
- Congestion avoidance: Congestion control can control traffic entry into a telecommunications network, so as to avoid congestive collapse by attempting to avoid oversubscription of any of the processing or link capabilities of the intermediate nodes and networks and taking resource reducing steps, such as reducing the rate of sending packets. For example, automatic repeat requests may keep the network in a congested state; this situation can be avoided by adding congestion avoidance to the flow control, including slow-start. This keeps the bandwidth consumption at a low level in the beginning of the transmission, or after packet retransmission.
- Multiplexing: Ports can provide multiple endpoints on a single node. For example, the name on a postal address is a kind of multiplexing, and distinguishes between different recipients of the same location. Computer applications will each listen for information on their own ports, which enables the use of more than one network service at the same time. It is part of the transport layer in the TCP/IP model, but of the session layer in the OSI model.
The transport layer is responsible for delivering data to the appropriate application process on the host computers. This involves statistical multiplexing of data from different application processes, i.e. forming data packets, and adding source and destination port numbers in the header of each transport-layer data packet. Together with the source and destination IP address, the port numbers constitutes a network socket, i.e. an identification address of the process-to-process communication. In the OSI model, this function is supported by the session layer.
Some transport-layer protocols, for example TCP, but not UDP, support virtual circuits, i.e. provide connection oriented communication over an underlying packet oriented datagram network. A byte-stream is delivered while hiding the packet mode communication for the application processes. This involves connection establishment, dividing of the data stream into packets called segments, segment numbering and reordering of out-of order data.
Finally, some transport-layer protocols, for example TCP, but not UDP, provide end-to-end reliable communication, i.e. error recovery by means of error detecting code and automatic repeat request (ARQ) protocol. The ARQ protocol also provides flow control, which may be combined with congestion avoidance.
UDP is a very simple protocol, and does not provide virtual circuits, nor reliable communication, delegating these functions to the application program. UDP packets are called datagrams, rather than segments.
TCP is used for many protocols, including HTTP web browsing and email transfer. UDP may be used for multicasting and broadcasting, since retransmissions are not possible to a large amount of hosts. UDP typically gives higher throughput and shorter latency, and is therefore often used for real-time multimedia communication where packet loss occasionally can be accepted, for example IP-TV and IP-telephony, and for online computer games.
The OSI model |
7 Application layer |
6 Presentation layer |
5 Session layer |
4 Transport layer |
3 Network layer |
2 Data link layer |
1 Physical layer |
In many non-IP-based networks, for example X.25, Frame Relay and ATM, the connection oriented communication is implemented at network layer or data link layer rather than the transport layer. In X.25, in telephone network modems and in wireless communication systems, reliable node-to-node communication is implemented at lower protocol layers.
The OSI connection-mode transport layer protocol specification defines five classes of transport protocols: TP0, providing the least error recovery, to TP4, which is designed for less reliable networks.
The exact definition of what qualifies as a transport-layer protocol is not firm. The following is a short list:
- ATP, AppleTalk Transaction Protocol
- CUDP, Cyclic UDP
- DCCP, Datagram Congestion Control Protocol
- FCP, Fibre Channel Protocol
- IL, IL Protocol
- MTCP, Multipath TCP
- NBF, NetBIOS Frames protocol
- NBT, NetBIOS over TCP/IP
- RDP, Reliable Datagram Protocol
- RUDP, Reliable User Datagram Protocol
- SCTP, Stream Control Transmission Protocol
- SPX, Sequenced Packet Exchange
- SST, Structured Stream Transport
- TCP, Transmission Control Protocol
- UDP, User Datagram Protocol
- UDP Lite
- µTP, Micro Transport Protocol

ISO/IEC 8073/ITU-T Recommendation X.224, "Information Technology - Open Systems Interconnection - Protocol for providing the connection-mode transport service", defines five classes of connection-mode transport protocols designated class 0 (TP0) to class 4 (TP4). Class 0 contains no error recovery, and was designed for use on network layers that provide error-free connections. Class 4 is closest to TCP, although TCP contains functions, such as the graceful close, which OSI assigns to the session layer. All OSI connection-mode protocol classes provide expedited data and preservation of record boundaries. Detailed characteristics of the classes are shown in the following table:[3]
Service | TP0 | TP1 | TP2 | TP3 | TP4 |
Connection oriented network | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
Connectionless network | No | No | No | No | Yes |
Concatenation and separation | No | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
Segmentation and reassembly | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
Error Recovery | No | Yes | No | Yes | Yes |
Reinitiate connection (if an excessive number of PDUs are unacknowledged) | No | Yes | No | Yes | No |
multiplexing and demultiplexing over a single virtual circuit | No | No | Yes | Yes | Yes |
Explicit flow control | No | No | Yes | Yes | Yes |
Retransmission on timeout | No | No | No | No | Yes |
Reliable Transport Service | No | Yes | No | Yes | Yes |
There is also a connectionless transport protocol, specified by ISO/IEC 8602/ITU-T Recommendation X.234.[4]

Austin, TX -- a Texas man uses his head to brainstorm a billboard idea.
"Using your head" is an over-worked phrase...except when It's exactly correct.
In this case, the smooth surface of Brandon Chicotsky's bald noggin is the perfect palate for an advertiser.
For 320-bucks the creator of "bald logo dot com" and his team will spend six hours hitting the streets of Austin, drumming up attention...and hopefully, business for whichever company is boldly emblazoned on his head.
"Bald logo dot com" donates a percentage of its profits to the national Alopecia Areata Foundation, which supports people with disease-caused hair loss.
