BSOD when booting windows. Huge dmp file.
After a bsod which I did not have the chance to see or read which happened at a random time (or so my friend says) when trying to boot to windows right after the windows logo comes up, a bsod pops up and the computer restarts. Then you get a choice to either enter windows repair or start windows normally. Start windows normally obviously returns the same result.
If I choose windows repair it fixes nothing and I end up in a loop unable to start windows. I tried these instructions here Startup Repair Infinite Loop Recovery with no success so I copied the dmp files from command line in windows repair to a usb stick and its 344MB! Should I upload to some host and post here or is theres something wrong, Ive never seen a dmp this big.

You probably have a single kernel dump file of the latest crash in there, which is a good portion of memory that was pushed onto the dump, making it fairly large even when compressed (though compression greatly decreases the size). You'll need to send it to 3rd-party filesharing site for us to retrieve it. While it may not be necessary, and only the minidumps can be sufficient, a kernel dump provides a whole lot of info that the minidumps don't offer.
Have you tried entering Windows in Safe Mode by mashing the F8 key when the PC starts?
|My System Specs
|20 Apr 2012
I can't enter safe mode either. I copied the whole minidump folder from command line, I'm attaching it. If I'm reading the dates correct none of these are are from the latest bsod. Tell me if I need to upload the memory.dmp too. Thanks.
|My System Specs
|20 Apr 2012
They're all from January, with one in February. All except one are 0x116 bugchecks which means your video card drivers became unresponsive (or the video card itself). However, that would not explain why you can't get into Safe Mode because Safe Mode does not use your video card's GPU, but rather passes the video through and uses software mode for the display. Unless there's a very problematic issue with your video card, it shouldn't be the case.
The other crashdump revealed an interrupt exception delivered by some old Marvell AHCI/RAID drivers (dated June 30, 2010). I can see this more being responsible, as regardless of which way you load Windows, if the disk controller drivers to access the drive holding Windows are causing problems, then Windows won't load properly in any way.
I personally would recommend you provide us the memory.dmp for the latest crash, since all these other ones are relatively dated. It can give me a good bit of data to work with.
|My System Specs
|20 Apr 2012
Thanks. I tried changing sata mode to AHCI (was on IDE) but it didn't work. Here is the link(s) to the dmp file. I rared it so it's ~50mb.
|My System Specs
|20 Apr 2012
Hmm, I looked at it and it's dated from Feb 3, 2012, so it's no different than one of those which you already provided. I should've asked you to look at the timestamp for it prior to having you send it over. I apologize for wasting your time on that.
If you wish to give it another go, I recommend attempting to load Windows in safe mode, then provide the kernel dump for the crash that occurs when it tries to load Windows in safe mode. If you see that the system quickly rebooted or the bluescreen only showed up for a split second than the attempt to dump your memory to disk failed for whatever reason (could be related to that RAID/AHCI driver thing).
As for trying to find a resolution, I recommend opening the Windows Recovery Environment from the Windows CD (not from disk) and do a full Disk Scan followed by an SFC Scan. If that doesn't resolve things, you can try Fixmbr. If that doesn't work, then it looks like you have hardware failure. Note that before you do any of the aforementioned steps to switch SATA mode back to IDE as it was previously.
For hardware tests, use another system to burn a UBCD and run all self-test and basic tests on Seatools (under Drive Diagnostics) and then Video Memory Stress Test (under Peripherals). Be aware of any test results. You may wanna throw in Memtest86+ (Memory) for good measure (run it severals hours, preferably overnight).
|My System Specs
|20 Apr 2012
Ok I will try it tommorow since I don't have access to the computer. When you say kernel dump it's the same as memory.dmp?
|My System Specs
|21 Apr 2012
I did everything you suggested with no success. I did not get any errors in any of the tests. Tried to enter safe mode bsod while loading some files and then restart again. What should I do next?
|My System Specs
|24 Apr 2012
Did the bluescreen sit for a while as it attempted to create a dump file? Did it state that it managed to successfully create one? You can provide us the kernel dump (MEMORY.DMP) file as you did previously, but make sure that you check the timestamp on it first. You should be able to see timestamps when using the dir command in the cmd prompt to list files. Verify that the timestamp for the crashdump file correlates with the time of the crash.

Any game that features combatants from around the world tends to play up the differences between cultures. The Mexican dude will probably have a luchador mask and love maracas, the Aussie wears a boomerang for a belt, stuff like that. It's understandable to a certain degree, but we have to admit, Punch-Out!!, as a series, has a lot more (good natured) fun with stereotypes than any other game we can think of.
They say laughter is the best medicine, so what better way is there to sooth racial tensions than with friendly jabs at everyone's equal expense?
The French: Are wimpy cowards who love expensive coffee, fancy baguettes and apparently must live within 100 feet of the Eiffel Tower at all times.
Glass Joe has forever been the lamest boxer in the series. He can barely throw a punch, let alone win an actual fight (cowardly), and in his opening scene we see him sipping an elite-brewed cup of fancy coffee (probably way better than the swill we Americans are forced to drink).
In between rounds most of Joe's comments are simply counting to 10 in French, likely because that's all we learned about France in high school.
Above: You actually beat the croissants out of him
Tasteful French trivia: The world-famous Louvre museum (that houses works like the Mona Lisa and Venus de Milo) has a cutoff date for its permanent collection. Nothing produced after 1848 will make it into this prestigious area. Modern exhibitions are still welcome, though temporarily.
Germans: Are militaristic, goose-stepping nationals obsessed with victory to a fault. And c'mon… his name's Von Kaiser, of all names they could have given him. Might as well be Wolfgang von Sauerkraut.
Kaiser has always been just above Glass Joe in the Punch-Out!! hall of infamy, usually succumbing to well-timed body blows. He has a very proper march to his step, and his opening movie plays "Ride of the Valkyries," a piece of German classical music often paired with one-sided military excursions (see The Simpsons, Apocalypse Now or the Vietnam scene in Watchmen). Basically, they're trying to imply he's a goofy Nazi without actually saying he's a Nazi.
Above: Might have been photoshopped
Tasteful German trivia: Baseball may be America's pastime, but German-blooded Honus Wagner aka "The Flying Dutchman" is on the world's most valuable baseball card. How much is it worth? A cool $2.8 million.
Black Americans: Love tricked-out cars with huge rims and insane bass, and also spend a lot of time in the club scene.
Disco Kid is the only new Punch-Out!! boxer found in the main modes (which is why there are no sprites to show here), and as far as stereotypes go, this is pretty mild. The French had their clothes, cuisine and personality mocked, whereas Kid merely gets a jab for lovin' the clubbin'.
He's balanced by Mr. Sandman, the Punch-Out!! champ with no eccentric behavior at all.
Above: Mr. Sandman says NO to stereotypes
Tasteful Black American trivia: We all know Barack Obama is the first black US president, but did you know Shirley Chisholm was the first black AND first woman presidential candidate way back in 1972? She lost the nomination to George McGovern, who then lost to Nixon, who ended up resigning the office in 1974. Whatta country!
The Japanese: Only eat piles of sushi, can intercept swords with their bare hands and always, always bow to their opponents.
The first Punch-Out!! was developed in Japan, a country notorious for laughing off harsh national stereotypes. This one's from Next Level games though, a Canadian outfit (they'll get their comeuppance in a sec). Hondo here engages in all sorts of poke-poke wink-wink Japanese moments, each best described by images:
Above: Asians are exceptional martial artists
Above: Traditional byobu screens divide Japanese homes, and apparently boxing rings too
Above: Never lower your eyes to an enemy!
Above: Effing sushi flies out of his head
Tasteful Japanese trivia: The above sushi dish is called tamago nigiri, which is a delicious concoction of sumeshi (rice), tamago (egg omelet) and nori (dried seaweed). We'll include a wonderfully disgusting sumeshi story on this week's filthy, stupid podcast (TalkRadar 52!).

As of Thursday, August 8, 2013
© Copyright 2014 Gwinnett Daily Post
By Greg Lang
The Good Samaritan Health Center of Gwinnett is a non-profit faith-based organization serving the uninsured of North Atlanta. July was a significant month for the charity medical clinic – it celebrated its eighth year of service, received the Gwinnett Chamber of Commerce's Small Business of the Month Award, and announced its plan to relocate in order to open Gwinnett's only full-time charity dental clinic.
"We are committed to caring for the indigent and working poor who do not have health insurance," Greg Lang, Executive Director, says. "We have provided the community with more than 35,000 medical appointments since our inception. Based on our activity during the first half of 2013, we expect to deliver 9000 patient visits this year. At that rate, we will provide the community with services at an estimated value of $2.5 Million but at a cost of only $770,000."
But those 9000 visits do not include dental care. At present, the clinic's services are limited to primary medical care. "All too often we receive requests for dental care that we are unable to provide and must refer our patients to distant charity dental clinics, knowing they will be among many on a long waiting list," Lang explains. "Our health clinic was founded to relieve the pain and suffering of those without access to affordable healthcare; it grieves us to recognize the need for affordable dentistry for the uninsured and be unable to meet that need."
Oral diseases ranging from dental cavities to oral cancers cause pain and disability for millions of Americans. The impact of these diseases does not stop at the mouth and teeth. A growing body of evidence has linked oral health, particularly periodontal (gum) disease, to several chronic diseases, including diabetes, heart disease, and stroke. In pregnant women, poor oral health has also been associated with premature births and low birth weight. These conditions may be prevented in part with regular visits to the dentist.
Just last month, the Georgia Dental Association hosted a two-day free dental clinic known as Georgia Mission of Mercy (GMOM) in Norcross. The GMOM volunteer dentists provided routine and complicated dental care to more than 1600 individuals during the event, and as many more were turned away due to lack of time and resources to serve everyone. More than half of those who did receive care reported it was the first time in more than two years since last visiting a dentist. "Now that the problem has been so clearly identified, we must do something about it," Lang says. "If we fail to address the need, our awareness will serve only to condemn us for our lack of action. Believing everything will fall into place that should, we will open a new location in January 2015."
The Good Samaritan's current location cannot accommodate the additional staff and volunteers needed to serve new programs and the growing number of patients seen each day, and the parking lot cannot accommodate the combined number of patients and volunteers who arrive to the clinic. "Relocation is necessary if we are to meet the needs appearing in our clinic," Lang says. "We pray the churches, businesses and families of Gwinnett will help us to acquire the space we need to do the important work that needs to be done."
Donations and volunteers are always needed to operate the Good Samaritan Health Center. Contact Greg Lang at 678-280-6630, ext. 107 for additional information.

Effectiveness of Recombinant Human Growth Hormone (rhGH) in the Treatment of Patients with Cystic Fibrosis
Clinical Questions Addressed by the CER (1)
The CER reports findings synthesized from studies that examined the effects of rhGH on CF disease characteristics, as measured by many commonly used clinical assessments: pulmonary function (forced vital capacity [FVC], forced expiratory volume in 1 second [FEV1], and percent predicted FVC and FEV1); growth (e.g., height, weight, body mass index); bone mineralization; and exercise tolerance.
In addition to intermediate clinical outcomes, the effect of rhGH on health outcomes was investigated, as reported in the included studies.
The relationships of intermediate outcomes to mortality risk and health-related quality of life (HRLoQ) for patients with CF are not well understood. Therefore, the CER included a survey of studies that tested these links by regression analysis.
Keywords: intermediate outcomes | health outcomes | pulmonary function | body composition | bone mineralization | pulmonary exacerbation | mortality risk | health related quality of life | HRQoL | QoL | quality of life | cystic fibrosis | CF | rhGH | recombinant human growth hormone | human growth hormone | HGH

While it may not be lumped on your desk in an unsightly pile like its paper counterpart, e-mail can become just as overwhelming if you don't learn how to control it.
According to Linda Lamb, co-author of Using Email Effectively (O'Reilly & Associates), most businesspeople get far more e-mail messages than are necessary. Often, your employees must wade through tons of messages that aren't even pertinent to them because the sender, inadvertently or on purpose, copied the message to them. By allowing practices like this to continue, contends Lamb, you're promoting habits that waste your employees' time and lower their productivity.
"The key is a combination of setting expectations for what you want to [accomplish] with
e-mail and encouraging people to practice good e-mail etiquette," she says.
Establishing company guidelines detailing how e-mail should be used is key to putting a stop to any extraneous e-mail. It's best to set up specific groups of users so that employees can target information to the proper areas of the company. Also, try to encourage employees to write message headers that are specific and easily understood so people know at first glance whether they need to read further. Finally, Lamb insists, you must put a stop to employees posting personal messages to the entire company.
To manage your own e-mail efficiently, get to know your delete key. If you read the top header and decide you're not interested in the mail, don't be afraid to delete it without opening it. Place messages you want to save for later in separate folders so you can easily retrieve them.
Above all, if you need to discuss something personal or controversial, pick up the telephone and speak with the person directly rather than sending an e-mail message, advises Lamb. Otherwise, you're likely to set off a series of vicious e-mail attacks that can get out of hand.

My PhD concentrated on the ontogeny of the foregut of neogastropod molluscs. I still have an interest in this area, but no longer have the time to continue to carry out research in this subject.
Molluscs are fascinating creatures and offer great opportunities as model organisms to study a variety of different problems. My own research investigated the link between ontogeny and phylogeny.
On a practical level I worked with a species called Nucella lapillus which has encapsulated development. By collecting egg capsules at different stages in development I was able to build a development sequence for the larval stages.
Specimens were fixed using conventional techniques for SEM and TEM.
Whole larvae were photographed using SEM and specimens for light microscopy and TEM were prepared in the normal way for TEM.
I then serial-sectioned the specimens for light microscopy at 1 micron intervals and used a fairly primitive computer-aided 3D reconstruction programme to work out the internal anatomy in three dimensions.
TEM filled in the last gaps in the puzzle by allowing me to positively identify tissue types in the developing embryos and to compare the histology between different organs.
All of this work has been published (see the refs in the publication record).
After working on Nucella, I turned my attention to cone snails. I wanted to see how different the development in the Conoidea was from the Muricoidea. Cone snails have a very different proboscis, highly evolved buccal mass and have a venom gland which seems to be a derivation of the midgut gland (gland of Leiblein) found in Nucella.
Once again, I picked a species with encapsulated development and spent several weeks collecting egg capsules of Conus anemone in Western Australia. I was not able to get as complete a developmental sequence with this species, but the stages were informative enough to show that there are some very interesting parallels between the two species. Again this work has been published.
It's clear that studying development in a model group which has a high degree of morphological diversity with "proper" organs offers a great opportunity for understanding both the development and evolution of complete organ systems.
Modern techniques, such as micro CT, still can't quite match up to the tedious and technically demanding challenge of preparing serial sections of specimens, but at least now we can photograph the specimens with a digital camera rather than having to draw the sections using a camera lucida!
Louise Page at The University of Victoria is also carrying out research in this field, see her webpages here.
and some of her publications:
Page, L.R. 2000. Development and evolution of adult feeding structures in caenogastropods: overcoming larval functional constraints. Evolution & Development 2: 25-34.
Page, L.R. and Pedersen, R.V.K. 1998. Transformation of phytoplanktivorous larvae into predatory carnivores during the development of Polinices lewisii (Mollusca, Caenogastropoda). Invertebrate Biology 117: 208-220.
My current research interests are really methodology-driven towards trying to get the best out of the wide range of instrumentation that we have available in the EMMA labs at the Natural History Museum.
We have an incredible number of visitors to our laboratories and a bewildering diversity of different specimens to examine. Finding the appropriate technique to meet the demands of the researchers requires experience and a willingness to experiment. I try to attend as many scientific meetings as I can and am active in several microscopy societies, including organising the occasional large meeting to try and bring researchers from different disciplines together.

TTC this Month!
Find a Conversation
|Tue, 01-05-2010 - 5:42pm
Alright ladies - since my hubby's school got rescheduled I can now TTC in January and February - so here goes the attempt for this month!
I'm supposed to get AF tonight - which would put O around the 20th maybe. I'll stop BDing on the 17th, with a last BD consisting of shallow penetration, hot water and blow dryer on the hubby's boys, and lime douche.
I'm on all the supps so keep your fingers crossed!
Anyone else TTC this month?
|Wed, 01-06-2010 - 5:12pm
|Thu, 01-07-2010 - 1:29am
Yup - you definitely need to be on the supplements for 6 weeks - that's how long you need for it to work into your system.
I'm on cranberry, acidophilus, folic acid, magnesium, and calcium. As well as drinking lots of Crystal Light. And then when D-day comes, I'll be using the methods described in my first post to DTD.
Are you on the supplements now? That way maybe you can TTC as soon as that 6 week mark hits!
|Fri, 01-08-2010 - 5:19pm
we are TTC this month. I O'd Tuesday night with my last attempt 12 hours after that. So i should

Grouping sages by garden uses is helpful. At times, every gardener needs to find a plant that is just right for a particular purpose in the yard. This may involve controlling weeds by planting large areas with groundcovers, dressing up entryways with showy foliage or edging pathways with the soft foliage of herbaceous perennials.

(Black Cherry Autumn Sage) Ripe Bing cherries come to mind when viewing the rich purple flowers of this full-sun sage that is adaptable to partial shade. Butterflies, honeybees and hummingbirds are drawn to its blossoms from spring into fall.
(Elk Pomegranate Autumn Sage) We're proud to say that this is an FBTS cultivar. It is one of the finest dark flowered, compact Autumn Sage varieties we have seen. Its extraordinarily large, raspberry blossoms bloom from spring into fall.

I believe there's a story in every photo. Photographs define us… they sit on our desks, adorn our refrigerators and are carried with us in our wallets. We hang them proudly on our walls like badges–noting what's most important to us and the moments in which they were lived. Photographs tell a story.
When I document weddings I focus on the people and the story with one primary goal in mind: to make the entire experience, the story and moments tangible through quality photographs that my client (hopefully you) will be proud to share and show off to their friends and family for years to come.
Things I love most in life include: good food and the opportunity to share meals with people that are close to me, the anticipation I feel from shooting film and having to wait for prints, giving gifts, reading, the ability to make an impact on the world and people around me through film/video/photos, playing violin and (of course) opportunities to photograph and film really cool people. See some of my personal work here.
I'd love to hear from you.

Damages is a Golden Globe winning American legal drama television series. The initial season's plotline revolved around a brilliant yet ruthless lawyer (Glenn Close) attempting to win a class-action lawsuit against the former CEO of a corporation (Ted Danson) on behalf of his former workers, by any means necessary (see plot). The show debuted on FX in the US on July 24, 2007, without commercial interruption,[1] and ran for 13 episodes. It debuted in the UK on BBC One on 11 January 2008 and in New Zealand on TVNZ One on 7 November 2007. It debuted in Latin America on AXN on 12 February 2008, in Canada on Showcase on 18 February, in France on Canal + on 28 February 2008, and in Israel on Xtra HOT on 13 March 2008. The first episode, "Get Me A Lawyer", was made available free of charge on the UK iTunes Store by the BBC.[2]
Despite positive critical reaction, the show consistently received low ratings. However FX renewed the show for two more seasons of 13 episodes each, which were set to start production in February 2008.[3]
The show begins at what appears to be the end. A young woman, Ellen Parsons, is found running through the streets half naked and covered in blood. Investigation by the police reveal that her fiancee, David, has been bludgeoned to death in their apartment, and Ellen is quickly arrested.
The scene shifts to 6 months earlier when Ellen Parsons, a newly minted lawyer, is being courted for prestigious jobs. She turns down an offer to work with the defense attorney Hollis Nye in favor of working for notorious lawyer Patty Hewes. When Nye finds out about this he warns Ellen that working for Patty will change her.
Ellen soon becomes engrossed in the major case which Patty's firm, Hewes and Associates, is pursuing. Hewes and Associates has been retained in a class action suit by the former employees of billionaire Arthur Frobisher. In a case reminiscent of Enron, Frobisher is accused of insider trading and lying to his employees about the health of his company even as he unloaded his stock.
Early on in the series Patty shows that she is willing to go to extreme, even unethical and illegal, lengths to win her case. One such instance is when she has the pet dog of a witness killed in a manner which makes it look like Frobisher is responsible. This action only emboldens the witness to testify.
As the season progresses Ellen becomes more and more involved in the case, and in the shady dealings which Patty engages in. Part of this is due to Ellen's personal connections to the case. Her fiancee's sister turns out to be an important witness in the case. For most of the season Ellen skirts to edge of what is unethical, but eventually comes to cross that line.
As Ellen becomes more and more devoted to the case, her relationship with her fiancee becomes strained. The situation is not helped when Patty betrays his sister. Eventually Ellen and David tire of Patty and Ellen publicly leaves Hewes and Associates. However, she still has an interest in the case and soon becomes embroiled in it again.
Throughout the first season, the series plays with time. The narrative switches back and forth between a traditional linear narrative of events happening in "the past" and a more temporally disjointed narrative of events happening in "the present." The main plot focus of these flashes was the murder of Ellen's fiancee David and the apparent attack on Ellen that same day when she was staying at Patty's apartment. The flashes served to increase speculation among viewers since the audience was privy to information about the future which the characters were not. Until the final episode speculation over the identity of the murderer switched between a whole host of characters including Ellen, Patty, Frobisher, and a stalker who David acquired.
By the end of the first season the main narrative of the show had "caught up" with the flash forwards and most of the questions raised by them had been resolved. Ellen was acquitted of murder charges, the identities of David's murderer and Ellen's attacker were revealed (at least to the audience), and the Frobisher case was resolved.
On November 12, 2007 it was announced that FX has renewed the series for a second and third season. [3]
The series was created by Todd A. Kessler, Glenn Kessler and Daniel Zelman. The trio also serve as executive producers.[3] Todd and Glenn Kessler are brothers who previously created the Fox show The Inside; Glenn Kessler and Zelman have collaborated on several other projects. Todd A. Kessler previously worked as a writer/producer on seasons two and three of The Sopranos. The pilot was directed by Allen Coulter, a regular director on The Sopranos during Kessler's time as a producer.[4]
Although production on season two has yet to begin, many people speculate from the season one finale that one of the storylines from season two will involve the FBI investigating Patty with Ellen Parsons undercover. Glenn Close, Tate Donovan, and Rose Byrne are all on board for the second season.[5]
Season 2's production start date is unknown at this time.
According to a commentary track on the pilot episode on the show's first season DVD/Blu-Ray boxset, the creators of the series are planning to bring Ellen Parson's more immediate family into Season 2's storyline. The special features on the DVD also confirm that the creators will have season 2's storyline revolve around Ellen Parsons working undercover for the FBI to bring down Patty Hewes.
The first season of Damages is available for purchase in Region 1 on both DVD and Blu-Ray formats as of January 29, 2008. The DVD version has been available for purchase in Region 4 since December 19, however this version contains no special features.[6]
Award Nominations and Wins
Damages was also on numerous top ten lists in 2007.

- Lil' Princess 3-Story Enchanted Castle from MEGA Bloks
- We recommend this product for ages 1 and up
What It Is
MEGA Bloks Lil' Princess is a new construction theme targeted to preschool girls. The blocks in the Lil' Princess building sets feature bright colors and sparkly accents that help kids build and play out royal scenes. The 3-Story Enchanted Castle comes with 20 pieces that kids can use to build a palace for Princess Ivy and her pony, Chestnut. Accessories include two chairs, a table, a mirror, a bed, and food for Chestnut. The set also includes colorful stickers to decorate the castle. There is a spinning platform for Chestnut and a spinning balcony for Ivy so that both can dance the night away. Princess Ivy's tiara pops up whenever she is placed on a block or Chestnut. Chestnut features sparkly removable wings. The set comes with picture instructions on how to build the castle one way and then shows pictures both in the instructions and on the box of other ways to build. Kids can assemble the castle however they want and use this set with other MEGA Bloks Lil' Princess sets, which are sold separately.
Is It Fun?
The new Lil' Princess line is a fun way for kids, though with a clear emphasis on classic girls' play, to build and imagine. The sparkly blocks are unique and add a touch of whimsy to the line. Kids will like that they can build and rebuild the castle in many different ways, creating their own unique enchanted castle and, of course, all the stories that go along with that.
Who It's For
The MEGA Bloks Lil' Princess 3-Story Enchanted Castle is for ages 1–5.
What To Be Aware Of
It took us between 15 and 20 minutes to assemble the castle using the picture instructions provided. No matter how long it takes you to build, remember that building is part of the play.

Not mountain biking, scooters..... was thinking of a long (warm?) weekend there. Anyone been? Anywhere there less chavy?
Chat Forum
Gran Canaria- would you go?
Went several years ago just before Christrmas, remember landing in grim weather at Manchester airport on the 23rd of December after boarding in around 70 degrees!
I didnt find it too chavvy i think if you want to find the nice places you will, just steer clear of the English bars and all day breakfasts!
70 isn't that warm tho?
All the Canaries / Balleircs (sp) have good places if you avoid the tourist traps
The Canaries are generally chav free in the winter.
When is School half-term? c.13th Feb for a week?
I'd settle for it now!
Went to Gran Canaria end January last year, if you go into the countryside there are no tourists. By the beach.... Nice to go somewhere warm and dry when the weather in the UK is crap. It wasn't hot but was pleasant on the road bike.
Up north its mainly from the 6th to the 17th, 2 weeks
Go for it. Hire a car and 5 minutes from the all-you-can-eat-tattoos-and-fags are nice bits

Semih Erden,2008 draft pick, to finally sign with C's?
Semih Erden, one of the C's three draft picks from 2008 (along with Billy Sky Walker and J.R. Giddens), might finally be heading to the United States to join the C's roster. (Hoop Market via CelticsBlog)
Semih Erden is closer to land in the Boston Celtics next season. The 23-year-old Turkish center could have already reached to an agreement with the NBA franchise, and the deal could be signed in the next days.
Danny Ainge described Erden as an "over seven-foot center that has some potential," but Erden has largely been a disappointment overseas. From what I can gather, Erden has nice physical skills but doesn't work hard enough nor have the necessary skill to make an impact game in and game out. He averaged 8.2 points and 5.1 rebounds per game in the Turkish Basketball League last season. For perspective, the TBL is a second-tier league in Europe (behind the Spain and Russian leagues, and perhaps more). Erden isn't ready for the NBA, but with Kendrick Perkins injured and Sheed probably retiring, he might play some minutes early next season. FML.
7 Responses to "Semih Erden,2008 draft pick, to finally sign with C's?"
I had a feeling we'd hear something about him soon, especially with Ainge shopping Perk right now.
I honestly don't know what to make of him, with his skill set and size, he has the potential to be a top-tier center. But his performance just doesn't back it up, let's hope KG and big Cliff can light a fire under his ass.

Perkins is staying with the celtics

He needs to be over here and work with the coach that helped with Jefferson and Perkins.they improved under his instruction,and what I've read he needs someone to work with him,and use him to Kurt Rambis Kobe"Rothlesberger"Bryant next year.

Pain neck near ear
Common Questions and Answers about Pain neck near ear
I have been reading about my symptoms and it sounds a lot like this, since the jaw and ear started hurting. (plugged feeling in the

for a few days a couple of weeks ago. (I just assumed I slept on it wrong or something).

As I hit a high note (poorly) I immediately felt
radiate from the same spot in my
up to my
. The
this time wasn't as strong. I don't feel any pain if I hit a low tone in my voice. I'm lost as to what it could be and I think it's something as well as TMJD. Have I strained something in my neck that could cause that pain to radiate to the ear? Any help would be greatly appreciated. P.S.

could the nodules be in any way related to
????? I forgot to mention the nodules to the GP last week ...she looked at my ear bc of my complaint and said it looked fine. Today they will probably call to tell me my blood tests where normal...I guess I will mention to the receptionist about the neck and ear pain and nodules... My eye doc wanted me to call him about glucose test to make sure this wasn't the cause of the change. A1c was normal.

I developed this lump under my skin
my right
/jawline. It has been present for approximately 3 months and has doubled in size and is now approximately the size of a quarter. It started during a shingles episode, although I did not have a shingles outbreak in this part of my body. However, it started as neck fullness in that area which developed into a lump along my jaw line area that has persistently gotten larger over the past 3 months.

It hurts to turn my head to the right (keep in mind it is my left

that if I massage it, the pain subsides for a minute or two and then starts back up. Usually, if I can lay still and/or go to sleep the pain goes away and may not resurface for several days but always comes back. I went to an ear doctor but since it wasn't an actual infection he did not offer much help.

Is it specific to one side of your neck? Could it be a saliva gland and not a nasal passage? It could be a salivary gland stone. If it seems like it comes and goes, gets worse when you do something that could cause you to get dehydrated (drinking lots of caffeine, not drinking enough fluid, drinking alcohol) - it might be a salivary gland stone. You will feel "clogged/swollen" on one side of your neck near the jaw - it can feel like an ear infection at times.

Anyways mid way through the holiday I had

was less apparent. The pain was not chronic but more of a nuisance like a muscle ache in the neck and a feeling of a clogged ear. Now somewhat 3 weeks after the holiday I have had the same feelings in ear and neck near enough everyday since. They are not excruciating but as I say they just feel as a muscle ache.

I'm wondering if anyone has or is experiencing
/dull headache)? My thyroid levels were high/abnormal about 3 months ago, last month I was retested and they were low. But there is something that is worrying me, burning pain in my right ear (sometimes my left). The right side of my neck and my goiter swell up also. I have some kind of ball like a pimple or big mole behind my right ear, it hurts when I press.

that radiated from my
to my upper back and into my arm. At first, I thought it was a muscle strain. But after a month, it did not go away. Naturally, went to the doctor who diagnosed me with "cervical somatic dysfunction" and sent me off to physical therapy. The official paper diagnosis said I had a neck sprain.

This probably represents some irritation of a nerve in the neck that supplies sensation to the ear. It could also be due to "referred" pain from an area of irritation near the ear. In either case, I strongly believe that it will disappear completely with time.

This is the first in a new series I am calling Reality Check Books, a place where I can make book recommendations specifically for stars of reality shows (and those who truly identify with them). In this column, I will discuss (admit) the shows I watch and then (with deep sincerity) I will offer a book prescription for their madness.
First of all, they are neither real, nor housewives. Discuss.
The "reality" is that I just can not figure out why I am so entertained and fascinated by The Real Housewives of New York. Is it that I get to feel smug, emotionally superior, that this is the sort of trainwreck I like to see? Do I love to see silly people in weird designer clothes get all riled up about who said what to whom and when? That would be horrible and terribly unenlightened.
These episodes are case studies in human psychology that blow the lid off Survivor. Everyone is utterly preoccupied and transfixed with protecting their egos, or hurting other people's. They are the poster ladies for looking externally to what joy– real joy– can actually be. In one fell swoop Jill bought a $16,000 handbag and the next day went on BBC Radio discussing how she just "raised" $50,000 to improve an African community. Hmmm. This is the behavior that drives viewers to sit with jaws dropped at the hypocrisy of elite society which has been rightly reduced to sociological spectacle and cultural curiosity.
I think one aspect of the show that is so intriguing is the sheer lack of self awareness these ladies parade. They take "me" time to cosmic heights far beyond the realm of healthy self-care. Does LuAnn know how presumptuous and insensitive she appeared to be when talking to inner city girls about following their dreams (not of all them can be models and travel in exclusive circles in order to achieve this)? Does Alex know how sad her social climbing seems and how that looks to be an obvious demonstration of her intensely low self esteem? Does Bethenny realize that her preoccupation with herself and her ability to attract conflict is a reflection of her own inner conflict? Does Jill get that life is about more than parties, events, charities and shopping? Does Ramona understand that she has the emotional intelligence and maturity of a seven year-old? Does Kelly fully comprehend what a meanie she is?
The show is a social disaster area propped up by trendy restaurants, vacuous personalities, soulless conversation and silly emotional antics. It's so unlike the trainwrecks of, say, press conferences during the Bush administration which had actual real-world ramifications. This is a lesson in manifesting prosperity and abundance in all of its incredible potential.
And just for the record, I don't hate the rich. In many ways, I am the rich– not Rodeo Drive rich but I'm not at all adverse to accumulating that level of wealth. But screw $16,000 habdbags. That's totally dumb.
So what is my book recommendation for the ladies?
They should try on Lynee Twist's The Soul of Money. Twist, a global activist and fundraiser, has raised more than $150 million for charitable causes. Through personal stories and practical advice, she demonstrates how we can replace feelings of scarcity, guilt, and burden with experiences of sufficiency, freedom, and purpose. In this Nautilus Award-winning book, Twist shares from her own life, a journey illuminated by remarkable encounters with the richest and poorest, from the famous (Mother Teresa and the Dalai Lama) to the anonymous but unforgettable heroes of everyday life.
The Soul of Money has changed my own view of my relationship with money and how it has affected every decision and nearly every aspect of my life. Twist challenges readers to understand their influence and purpose outside of the power we give to money. She also gives us historic perspective on how human beings slipped into a consciousness of competition, scarcity, limitation, status , power, greed and war (both internal and external) based on a system of profit and money that can be alienating and destructive. She takes the reality of money and turns it on its side to introduce a healing process that is life-changing.
Happy Reading, real housewives.

I stalked my registry for months and nobody bought anything until about a week before my shower.. lots of things that I registered for were bought though, just bought somewhere else or they didn't use the registry so it would be taken off. So don't get discouraged if there isn't much purchased right before the shower either.
We haven't looked at the registry in a couple weeks and DH looked last night to find another item purchased.. but I have NO clue who bought it or when we are getting it . I was hoping to come home to a package waiting for me.. lol

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) - Here are five ETFs to watch this week.
iShares Dow Jones U.S. Broker-Dealers Index Fund (IAI)
NYSE Euronext (NYX) and IntercontinentalExchange (ICE) are slated to report their earnings reports this week, providing further insight into the state of the broker-dealers industry. Together accounting for over 10% of its index, these two firms' performances will influence the action of IAI in the coming days.
So far, investors have seen mixed earnings results from IAI's other major positions including Goldman Sachs (GS), Morgan Stanley (MS), Ameriprise (AMP) and CME Group (CME).In the coming days, investors holding this fund will want to maintain a close watch. IAI is currently bumping against a level which has posed as a sufficient point of resistance since late 2009.
iShares Dow Jones U.S. Consumer Goods Index Fund (IYK) A slew of consumer focused companies will step up to the plate this week to report their earnings. Because it tracks a well diversified index comprised of names from the consumer staples and consumer discretionary regions of the market, IYK is a strong option for conservative investors looking for a one-stop-shop way to gain exposure to the consumer's ongoing recovery. Firms on this week's calendar include Philip Morris (PM), Lorillard (LO), Coca-Cola (KO), Pepsi (PEP), Molson Coors Brewing Company (TAP), Kraft (KFT), Hasbro (HAS), and SaraLee (SLE). Together, this collection of companies account for over 30% of the fund's index. Market Vectors Egypt ETF (EGPT) Egypt has been one of most closely watched corners of the globe in recent days as citizens take to the street to protest the nation's government. Although President Hosni Mubarak has promised to not seek reelection, the crowds have remained persistent, stoking concerns around the globe. The political unrest taking place has sparked the attention of investors, who have turned to EGPT in droves in an effort to gain exposure to the Egyptian marketplace. Despite this sudden popularity, I urge investors to avoid jumping into this product. Early last week, the fund's sponsor, Van Eck, announced that share creation would be halted for EGPT, essentially turning the fund into a closed-end product and causing EGPT to develop a substantial premium. Market Vectors Junior Gold Miners ETF (GDXJ) Gold and gold-related ETFs have taken a backseat recently, as investors opted out of defensive plays in favor of riskier asset classes. Late last week, however, the smallest, most volatile members of the gold production industry got an M&A fueled jolt.

StubHub Introduces Weekly Ranking Of Most Popular College Football Teams
StubHub, the world's largest ticket marketplace, is introducing a new weekly scorecard, the StubHub Top 25, which will gauge the popularity of college football teams among fans. Using the AP Top 25 rankings as a backdrop, each week StubHub will review weekly page views for the teams and then rank which are the most popular. Every Tuesday, StubHub's rankings will be released on its blog, In The Know with StubHubJo, and at end of the year it will unveil which were the most popular teams of the 2012 college football season.
Previewing the new season, StubHub found the Alabama Crimson Tide – currently ranked No. 2 on the AP Top 25 – claim the top spot on its list. StubHub's first weekly rankings illustrate that a team's expected performance may not mean it is the most popular among fans. The remainder of StubHub's Top Five includes teams further down the AP list: Ohio State Buckeyes (No. 18 on AP Top 25), USC Trojans (No. 1 on AP Top 25), Michigan Wolverines (No. 8 on AP Top 25) and LSU Tigers (No. 3 on AP Top 25). Alabama, USC and Michigan are served by StubHub as their official Fan-to-Fan ticket marketplace.
"Without a game having been played yet, our data shows the optimism fans have for their favorite teams," said Glenn Lehrman, Head of Global Communications at StubHub. "Right now, we see traditional powerhouse teams leading the way with the highest ticket demand, but who knows what will happen as the season takes shape and upsets start to pile up."
The rankings are likely to change as game day approaches, as displayed in a study StubHub released earlier this year on the rise of fans making last minute plans. Compared to three years ago, more than half of respondents said they are making more last-minute plans, and nearly 30 percent said they have attended sporting events planned within three days of the event. Further, while many of the fans surveyed perceived that tickets would be more expensive closer to the event, StubHub found that on average those who waited until the day of an event paid 30 percent less than if they had purchased tickets one month prior.

Steps to make your digital life more secure
Someone would not have far to look to find somebody more techno-savvy than me. When it comes to electronic gadgets I'm way behind the curve.
However, over the years dealing in the limited fashion I have with computers there are a few things I've learned that I can share, for what they're worth.
Former Sun MicroSystems head, Scott McNealy once famously said, "Privacy is dead." But, while it certainly is on life support privacy is not quite dead yet.
For instance, the federal government is looking at new privacy requirements for online companies that may include a "do not track" option for consumers.
This effort springs from the fact that almost everything we do online can be followed to some extent. After all, being connected means exchanging data and some companies are more aggressive about following the consumer than are others.
So, here are a few tips I've come across that might help protect your privacy and simplify your cyber life.
First of all, watch those cookies. Anytime you visit a Website it typically loads small packets of code, called cookies, to make it work better or do things like remember your password so you don't have to log in next time. Some of the cookies you pick up traveling around the Web shadow your movements and build a virtual profile on you that can be worth dollars to marketers and can be sold. One thing you can do is set your browser to block third-party cookies. These cookies are installed by advertisers and others. You can adjust your browser's privacy settings to block third-party cookies, or you can simply delete them all.
Of course, that would mean you might have to log in again to sites that require a password or something, but it's worth the trouble as far as I'm concerned.
Another thing you can do is change you passwords every so often. I understand passwords can be a pain because they require you remember them and that usually means writing them down somewhere. It's tempting to use easily remembered things such as anniversaries, but those easy ones are the least secure. Try for something longer with a mix of letters and numbers – and try not to save them on a list in your computer. One big thing is never give your password to anyone asking for it online.
Social media has changed the landscape immensely. While I don't personally do social media I know you must be very cautious what you say and post there. While it's wonderful to be "friends" online, it's worth remembering that whole "six degrees of separation" idea – that we're ultimately connected to everyone else. Not surprisingly, not all those people have your best interests at heart. College students should keep in mind that employers make a point of checking social media sites and postings of questionable taste may well be a career killer. That same advice applies to older, employed folks who are tempted to post derogatory things about a boss or employer.
Delete the junk. Have you got 10,000 emails on your computer but you haven't bothered to clean up the clutter? It's time.
Sort the email by sender's name, highlight the ones you don't want and batch delete them. All those deleted emails probably go into the computer's trash bin, so you will have to delete them there as well.
Getting rid of this junk will make your computer a bit peppier and will certainly clear up some storage space. One thing to keep in mind, though, from a forensic computing perspective, even deleted data may not be truly deleted.
Finally, back it up. If you have files you can't afford to lose, back them up. There are a variety of options to do this from inexpensive external hard drives, to flash drives, to online backup services. One extra option you might consider is to store music photos and video on an external drive.
Like I said, there are many folks out there much more computer savvy than me, but these simple tips may help you out. If I can do it, you know it's pretty basic.
