What's left in the fascinating world of routers? Apparently, not a whole lot. However, that has not stopped Belkin from putting another five wireless routers into its lineup.
As Engadget points out, these appear to be repackaged products from last year's lineup. That said, they are certainly more attractive and can get the job done. Also, because there are five of them, you should be able to find a little something, no matter what your budget may be.
At $39.99, the Belkin N150 Wireless Router (F9K1001) promises wireless speeds up to 150Mbps. The N300 doubles that for $49.99, and throws in a "self-healing" app to detect network problems. The N450 does 450Mbps for $69.99.
At the top of the heap are the N600 and the N750, which can do dual-band for $79.99 and $129.99, respectively. Here are the specifics on those two models:
Belkin N600 DB Wireless Dual Band N+ Router (F9K1102)
Belkin N750 DB Wireless Dual Band N+ Router (F9K1103)
All models have Belkin's MultiBeam technology, which boasts higher data rates, faster speeds, and stronger wireless signals throughout the home.
"As people add more connected devices to their home network and the demand for streaming high-definition movies, downloading music, playing games, and sending emails continues to increase, a router that can manage these connections is essential to unlock the true potential of your electronic family," stated Mike Chen, Belkin's networking GM. "Belkin's newest routers are designed to give you the strongest Internet signal at the farthest distance in your home so your devices work where you live, not where your router lives."
Belkin's N150, N300, and N600 are all available now. The N450 and N750 will be coming around mid-May.Follow Electronic House on Facebook and Twitter.

Your armory link doesn't seem to work, atleast not for me, but i can see what it links to, so I am assuming you are Amazøn on Hakkar.
So my guild is getting started with uld 25 man, and i was curious / being a warrior should i still be stacking a mixture of dodge block and parry, or as i see a lot of geared warriors (who cleared 25 uld) who seem to be dropping their parry and block for straight dodge. Also i was told my spec is a waste so any opinions there would be helpful too! I do have a lot of other peices, but was trying to get my block at around 22% and my dodge at around 25% and was always told not to care about parry...
armory isnt working because i have a funny name armory: Amazøn im the only one... US server
pick me apart please.
Your armory link doesn't seem to work, atleast not for me, but i can see what it links to, so I am assuming you are Amazøn on Hakkar.
Currently: Dodge > Parry > Block, I think. Stam is also important.
In the patch, Dodge is getting nerfed, Parry is staying the same and Block is getting a major buff. Don't default to passing on block gear, you might kick yourself later! [I know a mage that quit playing because pre-3.1 he had close to BiS, post 3.1 he had no spirit = no crit].
The reason Parry is generally not favored as a stat is that it speeds up [depending on boss] the attacks coming in.
Last edited by Viridios; 07-24-2009 at 10:16 AM.
Parry hasting occurs (almost)anytime a parry occurs. BUT parry hasting happens for the party that does the parry. I.e. if the boss parries your attack, his next attack is hasted. If you parry the boss's attack, your next attack is hasted.
Now then, currently on live servers, it takes more parry rating to = 1% parry, than it does dodge rating to = 1% dodge. Parry also suffers more harshly from diminishing returns. The current PTR build require 15% more dodge rating to = 1% dodge, and 8% LESS parry rating to = 1% parry. This put them at approximately the same amount of rating required to equal 1%. HOWEVER as far as I am aware, the diminishing returns have not been adjusted, so dodge still takes the cake.
Block, while great for heroics and ok for naxx, just doesn't cut it in Ulduar. Blocking 1.5k of a 6k hit, very nice. Blocking 1.5k of a 25-30k hit, not so nice.
I checked out your armory, and I am assuming you are Amazon on Hakkar server.
I would start by doing some tweaking to your gems/enchants.
Change your meta gem to austere (stam & 2%armor)
Take out all your parry gems & get some more stam or expertise.
You can also play with some of the defense/stam gems. Depending on where you end up after replacing your meta, you may be able to drop some of the defense gems for more threat or more health.
You may also look into replacing your shoulder enchant to 30stam/15 resilience.
This will give you some more HP while bolstering your defense threshold.
Other than that looks pretty good all around.
Work on getting expertise soft capped, it will really benefit you in ulduar where a boss hasted attack can mean life or death.
whats the softcap exp?
Expertise softcap [dodge cap] is 26. Hardcap [parry cap] is 56.
Edit: And doh, I knew that, I really did. I should have spelled it out a little more in depth though, because the way I said it does sound wrong. Here's what I meant:
Boss attacks, tank parries. This speeds up the tank's next attack.
Boss attacks and hits.
Tank parryhaste-attacks and is parried.
Boss parryhaste-attacks and gibs the tank.
If memory serves correctly, it's the same reason a tank explicitly does not want "proc an extra attack" style abilities - reduced CD's are wonderful, but things like reckoning [if it hasn't been changed since 2.x when I last looked at it] can cause parry-gibs.
Last edited by Viridios; 07-24-2009 at 10:15 AM.
26 - soft
57 - hard
Yeah I wouldn't worry about block in ulduar... it's really not effective.
What I meant by bolstering your threshold, is that when you put on the 30stam/15 resilience enchant, it allows you to drop to I believe 536 defense rating. I say this because you have a lot of opportunities to get stamina at the loss of a little defense. This will let you dip a little under the 540 line and still be uncrittable, while not taking a huge hit in defense/avoidance.
really thats awesome i did not know that, greatly appreciated, also any tips for my spec?
It looks like you are rocking the standard deep wounds spec, which is a good spec. I don't really see a need to change your spec, unless you feel a reason to.

Post subject: Designer's Notes: Vector Movement
In this second mini-article related to design choices in the new edition of Starmada, we'll take a look at the movement system, and how it reflects the "reality" of movement in a frictionless environment. Technically, the movement system is unchanged from Starmada: The Admiralty Edition. Ships will still be able to maneuver in exactly the same ways as they could in SAE. However, the process by which players determine the movement of their ships has been streamlined, hopefully making the game more fluid and easier to understand.
There are a few assumptions underlying this system:
1) A thrust of 1 represents enough force to accelerate a ship by one hex per turn. Also, thrust is applied immediately, meaning that a ship accelerating from stop to 3 hexes/turn moves three hexes. (If thrust were applied evenly throughout the turn, a ship that accelerates from zero to 4 hexes/turn would only move two hexes.)
2) The direction in which a ship is facing indicates the direction of travel. Strictly speaking (as anyone who watched fighters zip about in the Babylon 5 TV show could tell you) it is possible for spacecraft to apply thrust in one direction and then spin around to face the opposite direction. However, to simplify record-keeping, it is assumed that a ship's heading and its facing are always the same. (The "Pivots" optional rule changes this.)
3) The amount of thrust required for a ship to complete a given maneuver is determined by comparing its vector at the start of the turn with its vector at the end of the turn. (A ship's "vector" is the combination of its speed and its heading.)
So much for the philosophical underpinnings -- let's get to the actual process. In order for this to work, it is necessary to keep track of each ship's speed. This was done in SAE by writing it on each ship's data card; in the new edition, we introduce "speed markers". Either method works fine.
To determine a ship's movement options, compare its speed to its thrust rating. There are three possible types of move, or "Maneuvers". If the ship's speed exceeds its thrust, it may only perform a "Straight Ahead" maneuver; otherwise it can perform any of the three:
1) STRAIGHT AHEAD: The ship MUST move a number of hexes equal to its speed minus its thrust (to a minimum of zero), and MAY move a number of hexes equal to its speed plus its thrust. The ship cannot turn.
2) COME ABOUT: The ship has no minimum move requirement, and MAY move a number of hexes equal to its thrust. The ship must turn once during its move.
3) REVERSE COURSE: The ship has no minimum move requirement, and MAY move a number of hexes equal to its thrust minus its speed. The ship must turn two or three times during its move.
As an example, if a ship has a speed of 3 and a thrust of 5, it can do one of three things:
STRAIGHT AHEAD: Move between zero and 8 hexes, making no turns.
COME ABOUT: Move between zero and 5 hexes, making one turn.
REVERSE COURSE: Move between zero and 2 hexes, making two or three turns.
However, if the ship has a speed of 5 and a thrust of 3, it can only do one thing:
STRAIGHT AHEAD: Move between 2 and 8 hexes, making no turns.
A ship's new speed is equal to the number of hexes moved. That's it!

The Future of Europe
The Future of Europe
Europe must become more stable domestically and more forward-looking on the international level. Those are the key issues in the debate over "the future of Europe."
Project duration: January 1, 2008 to December 12, 2010Project Description
From Our Project Work
The EU and its Eastern Neighbors
Experts meet in Warsaw
Organized together with the Poland-based think tank DemosEuropa and the Warsaw office of the Heinrich Böll Foundation, the conference "The European Union and its eastern neighbors. Challenges and new chances of policy shaping" brought together a number of experts to discuss the EU's policies toward its neighbors to the east.
The international event served as preparation for Poland's presidency of the EU, scheduled for 2011. The Bertelsmann Stiftung has carried out numerous activities to support past EU presidencies.
Europe in Dialogue With Middle Eastern "Region of Opportunity"
Network meeting brings together foundations from Europe and Gulf region
Members of the Al-Jisr Network met over the last two days in Berlin to discuss the issues of security and cooperation. Meeting under the auspices of the Gulf Research Center in Dubai and made up of representatives of 20 foundations from Europe and the Gulf region, the network was created in order to promote dialogue among civil society actors in the Middle East. Financed by the European Commission, the network examines issues of joint interest to its members. As participants at the Berlin event concluded in a summary statement, cooperation requires security, and the instable situation in Iraq, Yemen and Iran threatens the Gulf region's security. Moreover, the region is not home to structures promoting dialogue or cooperation, so momentum must come from outside the region.More information available here
Commission on the Black Sea
Second policy report now online: "Security in the Black Sea Region"
Regional tensions, natural resources and geopolitical rivalries make the Black Sea region a strategic but sensitive area. In the absence of cooperative structures able to contain conflict, security threats ranging from interstate conflicts to illegal trafficking have emerged.
Mitat Çelikpala, associate professor of International Relations at TOBB Economy and Technology University in Ankara, is the author of the second of a series of four policy reports presented by the Commission on the Black Sea. According to Çelikpala, the region is politically, historically and geographically divided.
Press Releases
Social imbalance in Europe is increasing
Europe is making some progress in terms of economic stabilisation, but the level of social justice has declined in recent years in most EU states. This is the result of a new index comparing the justice of all 28 EU states, which was published today by the German foundation Bertelsmann Stiftung.more
Denmark and Germany biggest winners of the EU single market
Since 1992, increasing European integration within the EU single market has been having a positive impact on economic growth in all founding countries. This is especially true of Denmark and Germany.more
Bold steps needed to unlock the potential of a common European labour market
Employment opportunities for citizens and economic prospects for companies can be increased by enhancing the geographic mobility of European workers. The Bertelsmann Stiftung published today a set of concrete policy recommendations based on an extensive analysis of five scenarios seeking to identify drivers and challenges for labour mobility in 2025.more
The EU can save billions
The common policies of the EU countries have paid off. For the first time, there are evidence based calculations to prove that the transferal of policies to the EU level, and their funding through the EU, actually saves national governments money. That is the result of a study from the Bertelsmann Stiftung in cooperation with the Centre for European Economic Research (ZEW) and RAND Europemore
Germans have increasingly favorable attitudes toward Poles
The image that Germans have of Poland and the Poles is in- creasingly positive. Three out of four people in Germany now feel comfortable with the idea of having Poles as neighbors and coworkers; a majority of Germans even say they can imagine Poles as German citizens and friends. Those are the findings of a long-term study being carried out by the Ber- telsmann Stiftung and the Institute of Public Affairs in Warsaw.more
Germany profits from the Euro
Germany profits considerably from the Euro, as a current model calculation of Prognos AG shows that was drawn up on the order of the Bertelsmann Stiftung. "Germany's membership in the currency union reduces costs for international trade and protects it from strong exchange rate fluctuations," Aart De Geus, chairman and CEO of the Bertelsmann Stiftung, said.more

Spotlight Europe
Europe's New Balance of Power
The Lisbon Treaty has been in effect since the beginning of December, following a long struggle within the EU to ensure its ratification. In our current issue of "spotlight europe," we discuss the new balance of power Europe must now strike and take a slightly ironic look at the opportunities and potential for conflict inherent in the Lisbon Treaty.

Vesta™ font family
Designed by Gerard Unger
Vesta has more contrast than the average sans serif but, like many of other designs of Gerard Unger, let in a lot of light - the letterforms are open, the counters generous. Relatively narrow and hence economical - without feeling too compressed - Vesta is an ideal solution for newspapers and magazines, and numerous other applications, including corporate identity and more.
Big Vesta was intended as Vesta's display partner. However, it also performs very well at small sizes - its large x-height and short ascenders and descenders make it particularly economical, making it ideal when space is limited; for example on a mobile display.
Vesta and Big Vesta are now available in seven weights - from Light to Black - and include everything necessary for setting extended texts well: italics, small caps, and a range of figures, including old style, lining, and tabular figures. All in addition, Vesta is available as a family of OpenType fonts with a very large Pro character set and supports most Central European and many Eastern European languages.

More brilliant innovation from Australians. Pity they're Queenslanders. :p
Blind Inventors Develop Free Software to Enable the Blind to Use Computers
ScienceDaily (Oct. 9, 2010) For many blind people, computers are inaccessible. It can cost upwards of $1000 to purchase "screen reader" software, but two blind computer programmers have solved this problem.
Queensland University of Technology (QUT) graduate James Teh and business partner Michael Curran developed a free, open-source program, called NVDA (NonVisual Desktop Access), which provides a synthetic voice to read the words on a computer screen as the cursor moves over them.
The invention won the blind duo accolades in the grand final program of the ABC's show New Inventors, which aired on September 23. They took home the "Les* is More" award, for an invention that "might make a real difference to people's lives or the environment."
"A sighted person takes for granted that they can sit down at any computer and use it," Mr Teh said.
"We really are in the information age -- everything is online these days. So access to computers for the blind and vision impaired is incredibly important, which is why we wanted our software to be free."
Mr Teh, who majored in software engineering at QUT, said blind students typically didn't have the funds to purchase screen reader technology, at the time in their life when they most needed it. Now NVDA could be downloaded on to anyone's personal computer free of charge.
"It can also be copied to a USB stick, which can be used on any PC at school or university, with no installation required," he said.
Mr Teh knows firsthand the obstacles that blind students face. Studying a Bachelor of Information Technology, many teaching materials involved visual diagrams. His studies were made a lot easier by QUT teachers including computer science lecturer Malcolm Corney, who prepared detailed descriptions of diagrams prior to lectures.
"Sometimes he would sit with me for up to an hour explaining visual materials," said Mr Teh.
Mr Teh and Mr Curran have drawn on their own experience as blind computer users to develop a product which has some unique and innovative features. For example, as the mouse moves up and down the screen, a small beeping sound becomes higher and lower in pitch to let you know where the cursor is located.
NVDA has been translated into 27 languages, thanks to volunteer translators.
To date, there have been over 50,000 downloads. With the number of blind and low vision Australians expected to double to 600,000 in ten years' time (according to Vision Australia), NVDA has the potential to impact a significant number of lives.
Mr Teh and Mr Curran have been working on the project since 2006. They worked on their product without remuneration for two years. When Mozilla offered some funding in 2008, Mr Teh was able to quit his day job and work full-time developing NVDA.
Mr Teh and Mr Curran have plenty of future plans, including touch screen options for the blind and vision impaired. While keen to maintain the independence and integrity of their products, the pair's continued success may depend on the availability of further funding.
NVDA can be downloaded from

Tokyo 2009: WRX STi Carbon gets a weave
by Jonathon Ramsey (RSS feed) on Oct 21st, 2009 at 11:01AM
Most people we talked with don't seem to understand the point of the Subaru WRX STi Carbon unveiled at the Tokyo Motor Show – but it's a JDM-only car, and frankly, there are a lot of things that outsiders don't understand about the Japanese market. The carbon-roofed A-Line will come with two choices of engine, but since the model isn't earmarked for America, we probably don't need to worry about it. That said, the powerplants are as intriguing as the car: a 2.5-liter turbo with 296 horsepower, and a more powerful 2.0-liter turbo with 305 hp. Both will operate through the only... Read More

Scene 4 Part 1: A ball in the throne room But the king is naked!
Scene 4 Part 2: Panic
Despite the division into four tableaux, the action is pretty well continuous. The pompous fanfare with which the ballet begins returns at various points as a kind of ritornello, and various principal themes are ingeniously varied at different points in the action. The 'dance of the three tailors' before the palace immediately after the introduction already demonstrates Françaix's vivid and witty orchestration which is a notable feature throughout, and also the strong influence of Stravinsky – the best possible model for a 1930s ballet, of course, and one strongly advocated by Françaix's teacher Nadia Boulanger – that is palpable throughout the score. Not the least of the ballet's delights is the mysterious and magical atmosphere conjured up as the tailor tells the king of the marvellous material, of unsurpassed fineness and delicacy, from which he proposes to make the new clothes. This foreshadows the diaphanous – one might almost say naked – orchestration, confined to a few solo instruments, when the king finally dons his imaginary attire. The celebratory ball in the throne room is in Françaix's best opéra-bouffe manner, its louche polkas proceeding with a fine swing until the action is brought to a halt by the exclamation of a child, 'Mais le roi est nu!', triggering the panic-stricken (but sparkling) coda as unwelcome reality breaks in upon the Court.

Is it indigestion or chest pain? Knowing the symptoms of a heart attack can literally save your life.
John H., 46, a medical doctor, thought he had indigestion. He felt discomfort in his abdomen on and off for about a month, took antacid tablets, and went about his life. One day, his wife came home to find him lying on the floor, clutching his chest in pain. She called an ambulance and had him rushed to the emergency room. There, he learned he was having a myocardial infarction (MI), a type of heart attack that causes damage to heart cells. If Dr. H. had waited much longer to get to the hospital, doctors told him, it is quite likely he would have died.
Every year, over a million Americans suffer heart attacks. And heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States.
The Death of Heart Cells
Most heart attacks are a result of atherosclerosis: deposits of lipids or fatty cells, which build up and cause damage to the arterial walls. The body responds by creating plaque, which forms a scar inside the artery. If the plaque ruptures, it releases its contents that block the flow of blood to the heart. Without blood, the heart does not receive the oxygen it needs, and cells of the heart muscle begin to die.
While a heart attack may describe several possible conditions, MI refers strictly to the death of heart cells. The longer the heart muscle goes without blood, the more severe the damage and the greater the risk of ongoing heart muscle weakness, or even death. MIs can also be caused by drug use, particularly cocaine.
Immediate Treatment Is Essential
A heart attack is a medical emergency and needs immediate care. The first thing you need to do is call 9-1-1. Your survival chances increase with earlier emergency treatment. Heart damage can often be minimized or averted by immediate treatment.
Why People Delay
There are many reasons why people having heart attacks delay getting medical help. Some are fearful or in denial. Others are put off by complications or costs of the medical system, have trouble reaching their doctors, run into language or cultural barriers, or do not have access to care. But many people simply do not realize that they are having a heart attack. That is because the warning signs vary widely, and the symptoms can be unclear.
The Symptoms
The classic symptom is intense, central chest pressure. However, many people do not experience typical chest pain during a heart attack. Other common symptoms include: pain or heaviness in the left arm, nausea, shortness of breath, increased perspiration, a feeling of impending doom, or pain in the jaw, teeth, arm, or abdomen. It is especially common for women to present with symptoms other than chest pain. Symptoms may come on gradually and may be intermittent or vague. A small percentage of patients—particularly those with diabetes—experience no symptoms at all.
If you have any concerning symptoms, you should let your doctor know. By asking questions about your symptoms and what precipitates them, your doctor may determine that the problem is minor; it might be indigestion or a pulled muscle. If a heart attack is suspected, your doctor will send you to the hospital for tests to determine if your heart has been damaged. But, if your symptoms come on suddenly and you think they might be due to a heart attack, call 911 immediately. Time is precious when blood flow to the heart muscle stops, and your life may depend on how quickly help comes.
Are You at Risk?
Because heart attack symptoms can be difficult to recognize, it is important to know if you are at risk. You may be at higher risk if you:
- Already have coronary artery disease
- Have peripheral arterial disease or have had a stroke
- Have high blood pressure
- Have high cholesterol
- Have diabetes
- Are obese or overweight
- Are sedentary
- Smoke
- Have a strong family history of coronary artery disease
- Are male (men are at greater risk than women)
- Are older (men older than 45, and women older than 55, or younger if early menopause)
Help From Medical Technology
At the hospital, you will have an electrocardiogram (ECG). This quick test reads your heart rhythm and can detect abnormalities and damage. Blood tests can detect enzymes or markers in the blood which may indicate a heart attack. A more invasive method called cardiac catheterization can quickly determine whether an artery is blocked, where, and to what extent.
Drugs may also be prescribed to break up clots, and doctors may use a catheter device to open blocked arteries; they may even prop open an artery with a stent, so blood can continue to flow freely. In some cases, bypass surgery may be needed.
Life After a Heart Attack
To minimize the risk of a future MI, doctors usually prescribe medicines, such as beta blockers, ACE inhibitors, statins and aspirin to prevent future coronary blood clots. Doctors may also recommend a low-fat, high-fiber diet, a regular program of aerobic exercise, smoking cessation, diabetes control, blood pressure control, and weight management.

Cholesterol in the Blood
Facts about cholesterol
Cholesterol is a fat-like, waxy substance that can be found in all parts of your body. It aids in the production of cell membranes,Āmany hormones, and vitamin D. The cholesterol in your blood comes from two sources: the foods you eat and your liver. However, your liver makes allĀthe cholesterol your body needs.
Cholesterol and other fats are transported in your blood stream in the form of spherical particles called lipoproteins. The two most commonly known lipoproteins are low-density lipoproteins (LDL) and high-density lipoproteins (HDL).
What is LDL (low-density lipoprotein) cholesterol?
What is HDL (high-density lipoprotein) cholesterol?
Low-density lipoprotein (LDL),Āor "bad" cholesterol,Āis a type of fat in the blood that contains the most cholesterol. It can contribute to the formation of plaque buildup in the arteries, known as atherosclerosis, which is linked to increased risk of heart attack and stroke.
You want your LDL to be low. To help lower it:
High-density lipoprotein (HDL), orĀ"good" cholesterol,Āhelps to remove cholesterol from the blood, preventing the fatty buildup and formation of plaque.
You want your HDL to be as high as possible. Some people can raise HDL by:
For others, medicine may be needed. Because raising HDL is complicated, you should work with your physician on a therapeutic plan.
Checking your blood cholesterol level
A cholesterol screening is an overall look at, or profile of, the fats in your blood. Screenings help identify people at risk of heart disease. It is important to have what is called a full lipid profile to show the actual levels of each type of fat in your blood: LDL, HDL, triglycerides, and others. Consult your physician regarding the timing of this test.
What is a healthy blood cholesterol level?
High blood cholesterol is a significant risk factorĀfor heart disease and stroke. Lowering blood cholesterol through increased physical activity, weight loss, smoking cessation, and proper diet lowers that risk.ĀBlood cholesterol, however, is very specific to each individual and, for that reason, a full lipid profile is an important part of your medical history and important information for your physician to have. In general, healthy levels are as follows:
LDL?less than 100 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dl) is considered desirable
HDL?greater than 40 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dl)
A total cholesterol level below 200 mg/dl is considered desirable
In some individuals who already have coronary artery disease (CAD) and/or who have an increased number of risk factors for coronary heart disease, a physician may determine that the LDL cholesterol level should be kept lower than 130. Recent studies have shown that those who are at highest risk for a heart attack should lower their LDL cholesterol level to less than 100, and that an LDL cholesterol level of 70 or less may be optimal for those individuals at the very highest level of risk. Always consult your physician for a diagnosis.
What treatments are available for high cholesterol?
Medical treatment may include:
Modification of risk factors.ĀSome risk factorsĀthat can be changed include lack of exercise and poor dietary habits.
Cholesterol lowering medications.ĀMedications areĀused to lower lipids (fats) in the blood, particularly low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol. Statins are a group of antihyperlipidemic medications, and include simvastatin (Zocor), atorvastatin (Lipitor), and pravastatin (Pravachol), among others. Bile acid sequestrants?colesevelam (Welchol), cholestyramine (Questran),Āand colestipol (Colestid)?and nicotinic acid (niacin) are two other types of medications that may be used to reduce cholesterol levels.
Statistics about cholesterol
Elevated cholesterol is a risk for many Americans. Consider these statistics:
According to the American Heart Association, about 99 million American adults have total blood cholesterol levels of 200mg/dl and higher, and of those about 32 million American adults have level of 240 or above.
Elevated cholesterol levels early in life may play a role in the development of adult atherosclerosis.
According to the American Heart Association, high blood cholesterol that runs in families will affect the future of an unknown (but probably large) number of children.
What are triglycerides?
Triglycerides are another class of fat found in the bloodstream. The bulk of your body's fat tissue is in the form of triglycerides.
Triglyceride levels and heart disease
The link between triglycerides and heart disease is under clinical investigation. However, many people with high triglycerides also have other risk factors such as high LDL levels or low HDL levels.
What causes elevated triglyceride levels?
A healthy triglyceride level is less than 150 mg/dl. Elevated triglyceride levels may be caused by medical conditions such as diabetes, hypothyroidism, kidney disease, or liver disease. Dietary causes of elevated triglyceride levels may includeĀhigh intake of alcohol, and foods containing cholesterol, saturated fat, and trans-fat.

The rhythms are tight, and production often has these crispy little edges that make for some nice touches of fuzz where you might not normally expect – almost like psychedelic elements that creep into the music in the way the guitars and vocals are recorded! The approach is almost a garage take on Afro Funk, with some sweet 60s undercurrent that no doubt come from the production on the tunes – and which really serves to help this set stand out from the pack. As with other excellent sets on the Analog Africa label, this one's filled with rich notes on the group – helping you locate their wonderful music in a deeper cultural and historical framework – and also as usual for the label, you get plenty of music for your money – 15 tracks that include "Gandigui", "Me Ton Le Gbe", "Bori Yo Se Mon Baani", "Aske", "Ko Guere", "Dadon Gabou Yo Sa Be No 2", "Binin Hounnin", and "Sembe Sembe Boudou". © 1996-2014, Dusty Groove, Inc.

Industry figures from organizations such as the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), Nielsen and the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) provide data for physical media (LPs) and turntables, but the one segment of the vinyl category that's impossible to gauge is the thriving used vinyl and equipment markets.
Unlike the typical music buying practice of downloading a file or walking into a record store to pick up the latest new release, buying pre-owned vinyl is a communal experience.
No better example of this shared experience can be found than the used vinyl "festivals." These events happen year round across the country and they draw thousands of people. Groups such as the Boston-area Deadwax Record and New England Record Collectors' Club shows host several events per year and often they hold these events in local hotels across their respective regions. Nationally there are events such as the WFMU Record Fair in New York City which is annually held during the fall season, as well as the seasonal Austin Record Convention and the Allentown (Pa.) Record Show that draw a national audience of attendees who buy thousands of titles over the course of these events.
Many communities are also home to used records stores that deal with everything from mainstream used records, turntables and other equipment, to import titles, rarities and retro memorabilia.
The suburbs around Boston (where Electronic House is headquartered), for example, are home to Welfare Records in Haverhill, Mass.; That's Entertainment in Worcester, Mass., The Nevermind Shop in Upton, Mass., and Déjà vu Records in Natick, Mass., to name a handful. Out on the West Coast, nationally renowned stores such as Grady's Record Refuge in Ventura, Calif., and the Amoeba Music stores of Berkeley, San Francisco, and Hollywood, Calif., offer vinyl enthusiasts a wealth of resources to support a shopper's desire to own anything from the German import version of Led Zeppelin "II," to out-of-print releases like Ozzy Osbourne's "Mr. Crowley Live" picture disc. Many of these stores also carry new releases from new and classic artists, including audiophile 180- and 200-gram pressings of favorites such as The Black Keys' "El Camino," Mile Davis' "Kind of Blue" and Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon" for example.
Clearly one of the factors that has revived the analog audio market is the wealth of options for high-quality vinyl playback in your home audio system. From a new products perspective, respected manufacturers such as Audio Technica, Music Hall, Pro-Ject and Rega have produced a growing selection of turntables that are reasonably priced. But adding to the value of the analog market on a hardware side is the surging interest in classic turntables from companies such as Thorens, Acoustic Research (AR), Dual and Garrard.
The rise in popularity of these classic products mirrors the popularity of the vintage instrument market, where products from Gibson, Fender and Marshall commanding top dollar. Vintage turntables haven't reached the zenith price of a 1959 Gibson Les Paul or 1961 Fender Stratocaster, but there are similarities in how these products are now becoming highly sought after LP playback solutions for young and old vinyl fans. Consider this as an example of the growing used turntable market—back in the late 1960s and early 1970s, Thorens' TD-160 sold for just over $200. Today this 40-something-year-old product sells in a range of $250 to $400 in their original conditions. Refurbished, the TD-160 goes from $600 to $1,200 depending on the level of restoration.
One company that specializes in the restoration of classic Thorens and AR products is the New Hampshire-based business Vinyl Nirvana. Owner Dave Archambault provides everything from tune-up and restoration services, to parts and fully restored Thorens and AR turntables.Facebook and Twitter.

Do blondes really have more fun? Natalie Portman is about to find out as the actress has dyed her trademark brunette locks a significantly lighter tone for a new film role. The Oscar-winner joined Robert Pattinson and her husband Benjamin Millepied on the red carpet on Saturday night for the Van Cleef & Arpels Dinner for L.A. Dance Project wearing a dazzling Dior Couture gown and Van Cleef & Arpels jewels. She certainly looked like she was having a good time as a golden girl as she was spotted enjoying a joke with Pattinson who a source told Us Magazine 'was laughing so hard, he almost spit out his beer!'
Speaking about her makeover Natalie revealed to The Hollywood Reporter 'My mom says I'm like a different person. I did it just a couple of days ago'. She certainly looks like a different person - thanks to the dye and the dress she's transformed from edgy indie actress to straight up Hollywood beauty queen. Although it's not been confirmed which film the actress has reached for the bleach to star in, this is not the first time that she's undertaken a dramatic hair change for a role. She famously shaved off all her hair to play the part of Evey in V for Vendetta, which then grew out into a cute pixie crop, and in Closer she rocked a sleek bob - as well as a rather trashy pink wig.
But what do you make of Natalie's blonde do? Although it's nice to see the actress change things up we can't help but look back at her former caramel hues with longing. Take a look through the gallery above for Ms Portman's full hair history and let us know what you think in the comments box below.
