The invasion of non-indigenous plants is considered one of the primary threats to rare and endangered species as well as to the integrity and function of North American ecosystems. However, many of the suspected negative ecosystem impacts are based on anecdotal evidence. For example, there is almost unanimous agreement among natural resource managers of the detrimental ecological impacts of species such as Lythrum salicaria (purple loosestrife), Phragmites australis (common reed) and Alliaria petiolata (garlic mustard) but convincing documentation is scarce. Experimental and theoretical ecology predicts large ecosystem impacts of the most widespread invasive species. However, it is difficult to prioritize control of species that occur at intermediate densities. Long-term monitoring before and during the invasion as well as before, during and after any control attempts can provide valuable ecological information. In particular, it is important to understand how changes in the abundance of species influence ecosystem properties and processes which, in turn, will help guide management decisions. Ideally, this monitoring has to go beyond 'simple' impacts on plant communities, involve cross-disciplinary teams of scientists and should incorporate many different taxa and their interactions. Monitoring design and data collection should be sophisticated enough to allow statistically sound data analysis. The available information will be paramount in (1) developing new political and scientific guidelines in invasive species management, (2) helping resolve potential conflicts of interest and (3) helping change public attitudes regarding growth, sale, and control of non-indigenous species.

HTC replaces Sony as mobile partner of Champions League
HTC has replaced Sony as the official mobile phone supplier for the Champions League and Europa League, after striking a three-year deal with UEFA.
HTC: mobile phone supplier signs three-year partnership deal with UEFA
Sony's mobile division had been a sponsor of Champions League football since 2009.
The Sony group will retain an association with the competition through its PlayStation brand.
UEFA, European football's governing body, extended its sponsorship agreement with Sony Computer Entertainment for the Champions League until 2015 and the UEFA Super Cup until 2014, back in April.
HTC claims it will use the sponsorship to deliver "surprising football experiences" to fans through its creative content and its latest technologies.
The agreement includes rights that will enable HTC to give its customers access to action through match tickets and exclusive content.
HTC's branding will be included in the broadcast credits, on the competitions' websites and on match photographers' jackets.
The mobile manufacturer will use the sponsorship to tie in with its strategy of associating itself with the world of music, imaging, design and sport.
Recent high-profile partnerships include an on-going agreement with the MOBO awards and Rihanna's 777 World Tour.
The sponsorship deal begins on 1 January 2013 and will run until the end of the 2014/2015 football season.
It will also include the UEFA Super Cup final in 2013 and 2014, and the UEFA Women's Champions League Final in 2013, 2014 and 2015.Follow @mattchapmanuk

Would anyone know if this air pump would be suitable for cleaning projector filters and/or laptop/desktop fan/grilles, or is it not powerful enough/likely to spray a fine oil mist?

Would anyone know if this air pump would be suitable for cleaning projector filters and/or laptop/desktop fan/grilles, or is it not powerful enough/likely to spray a fine oil mist?
Its a 100psi compressor so with a nozzle on should be ok.
"No liability it its rubish though!!"
Absolutely not.
Small pumps like this produce high pressure air in incredibly small volumes.
It delivers 7 litres a minute, a small air compressor will deliver 176 litres a minute but even this will need you to charge the reservoir for 20 seconds or more before you get a decent air flow.
But wou;ld it work for just blowing dust from filters etc, nothing major. Could be more cost effective than buying cans of air which is what point I'm at now.
I use a Giottos rocket blower.
I use a "Henry" vac with the hose set to blow, which I also use to clean the Aircon & Projector filters.
I did origionally use an earth lead on the metal hose to remove any static generated, but it fell off about 3 years ago and never got replaced.
To this day every single peice of equipment that has been blasted is still working as good as new.
Might be worth seeing the cleaners if they have an old vac they want to donate.
That air pump just doesn't generate a bigger volume of air to blow out dust, it is designed to blow up inflatables footballs etc...
i used one for a while - if you hold it about 5cm away its quite good lol... instead i bought a nice powerful compressor off screwfix!
For those looking for something to blow out dust etc, I did have a look at this item - it doesn't even seem to be recommended for car tyres. What I did find, and I suspect most of you can access one of these, was that in the PE cupboard there was a small compressor for inflating balls and the like. The one I experimented with did 50l/minute (compared to the 7 the Aldi one does). It wasn't hugely powerful, but I tested it on a projector filter and a dusty processor radiator and it did the job albeit slowly. (Though perhaps it's for the best that it wasn't overly powerful).
I can recommend the ceramic knives Aldi have in, though.
Just be careful where you blow. We used a compressor, and had the "crazy idea", to blow around the filter access hole in a projector.. follwed being a thin film of dust over all the mirrors and lens... :-(
We didnt use that again...

Apple 120GB iPod Classic (Silver)
Posted: 07/09/2009
An essential purchase for any music lover out there. The 120GB capacity will hold over a lifetime of music, honestly you could get away with 30GB and still have plenty to spare. Though you can also store videos & pictures if you want - and theres still plenty of space. It also makes an excellent external hard drive - for files of any purpose.The drag and drop feature in ITunes makes it really easy to use and is available for free off their website. It may not be as good as media player, but for sheer ease of use is excellent.The battery life on this product is excellent exceeding 20-30 hours on 1 charge, even after years of ownership it still holds a good charge.The only slight problem is that it's not static memory, which means that when running or similar it may skip, but generally only after a long time. The earphones provided are tinny and uncomfortable, but you should be able to pick up a decent set for around £15.In summary the build quality is excellent and there really isn't a comparable product on the market, well worth the money if your in the market for an MP3 player,
...And Don't Forget To Breathe
A Static Lullaby - CD
This seems to be a very difficult album to actually buy, no one seems to stock it and it only seems available from America.That said it is definitely worth the effort, if you can get it for a reasonable price that is. Certainly worthy of it's critical acclaim it brings together the best of vocal melody and amazing riffs, the piercing screams build an amazing contrast and really get the songs across. Amazing lyrics and well thought out choruses really show how much potential this band had.Similar to there self entitled album in style but does seem to maintain some of the more 'poppy' moments from Faso Latido.Probably the bands best work, absolutely brilliant.

This is very probably the worst game ever made, it's definately on a par with the simpsons games for the SNES.It's not fun, it's not interesting, the graphics are awful, the dubbing and 'action sequences' are terrible, there is no saving grace for this game.The only reason anyone has ever bought it was for the exceptionally easy gamerpoints, if you don't believe how easy it is theres a video on youtube. (it's under 3 mins long)I would really ignore the 'star' rating as this is the worst game in existence, if I could give it zero stars I would, it's that bad.
Atticus Men's Krank Hooded blazer (Black)
Posted: 25/08/2009
I bought this and it really wasn't what i was expecting, the quality is excellent as is the fit, but it's a bit strange. Lying somewhere between a suit jacket, a blazer and a hoody... it's really a bit odd.there is only one button to keep it closed, the pockets are sown shut flaps and the whole jacket ends up feeling slightly pretentious.If Hooded blazers are your thing though, this will be exactly what your looking for.
Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath
Posted: 09/08/2009
Essentially a slightly re-vamped tiberium wars. With a few new units including the massive redeemer and MARV tanks and the faction specific units - which frankly suck, but make the game slightly more interesting.The campaign mode is easy, regardless of the difficulty setting and can suffer from extreme slow down in various places. The clockface selection tool often sticks on a unit after using it to select, which is mildly irritating... Some missions are really anti-climactic as the build up is suddenly destroyed with "mission complete", and the bonus objectives are pointless as there's no achievement for getting them all...The acting in the video sequences is pretty bad, but thats to be expected. Kanes wrath is a good RTS and follows well from it's predecessor, even if it doesn't bring anything new to the table.To be honest I wouldn't be too depressed if you miss it because it's nothing special, If you've got time to kill it's alright.
The Beach
Posted: 11/07/2009
A true modern day classic, this book was simply excellent. With vivid descriptions, truly believable characters, an amazing story and the underlying themes this is a book you can rarely put down.It's often compared slightly unfavourably with "Lord of the flies" and also draws comparisons from the film - but if you take this book on face value, with no pretenses of what you think you'll find, it is brilliant.

After reading the other reviews on play I assumed that this was going to be good. But after playing for even a few minutes I realised it really wasn't going to be.The game seems to start without any real story, it starts more like something on a commodore would, a short description and no indication of whats actually going on.Incredibly linear, theres only 1 path to follow. The gameplay is dull and repetitive - honestly it's on a par with the ridiculous avatar game they released... a cash in on the tv watching/movie going public. In short - avoid!

I am thoroughly unconvinced that this game is deserving of some of the amazing reviews it has received, in my opinion it's pretty awful, uninvolving and frankly irritating.Games like "dragonquest" on PS2 are a tribute to the failings of this game. They were involving, with great battle systems and story lines. This just isn't.The AI is terrible, your cast of imbeciles will spend most of their time running around absorbing enemy attacks and then using all your potions healing themselves... useful... they rarely attack and when they do, it rarely helps.The story line seems fair enough, maybe even good enough to be classed as inspired, but let's not get carried away. The gameplay is mediocre at best and the 'real time' system would only work if you're team mates where any use at all.You are often poorly directed i.e head north, and theres about 10 different paths that way... The cut scenes rarely have audio, as they haven't bothered dubbing, and the voice acting for the rest is pretty awful. The graphics are nothing to write home about as they look a bit last gen. There is no 'exploring' so to speak as there are 'invisible walls' everywhere.This game just doesn't live up to the expectations of a game on xbox360, it would probably feel more at home on a ps1.

An amazing album, slightly ruffer than white lies, but to be honest I think that makes it sound better. Of the post-hardcore genre, lovehatehero mix great sing alongs with piercing screams and amazing riffs. A great album, stand out tracks include 'The Risk', 'A Glass of Water, A Grain of Salt' and 'These Fists Are Grenades'.For fans of anything from early 'escape the fate' to 'a day to remember'.

This is a massively entertaining album, with stand out tracks like 'Felt Through A Phone Line' and 'Midnight Swim' it really manages to follow on from snow capped romance in amazing style. This album manages to go between heavy metal and lighter sounds to build a contrast which makes this album something you'll be listening to for quite a while to come.

Hiatus hernia
About one-third of people over 50 have a hiatus hernia.
Between your abdomen and your chest is a thin, dome-shaped muscle called the diaphragm. It sits just below your lungs. Your diaphragm tightens and relaxes as you breathe in and out.
Before your oesophagus (the tube that carries food to your stomach) reaches your stomach, it passes through an opening in your diaphragm. (Doctors call this opening a hiatus.) In some people, the upper part of their stomach bulges up through the opening in their diaphragm and into their chest. When this happens, it's called a hiatus hernia.
You're more likely to get a hiatus hernia if: [11]
You're a woman and you're pregnant
You're overweight
You smoke.
A hiatus hernia can be caused by:
Sudden physical exertion can also cause a hiatus hernia.
If you have a hiatus hernia, it is easier for acid to get into your oesophagus because the bulging part of the stomach can form a pouch that traps acid. Also, if part of your stomach is in your chest, your chest can no longer press down on your stomach to stop acid flowing back up. [11]
Most people with hiatus hernia don't get any symptoms. Symptoms usually start when acid in your stomach pushes up through the hiatus hernia and causes a burning feeling in your chest. This may make your oesophagus inflamed and painful. Doctors call this oesophagitis.
There's no evidence that hiatus hernia is caused by
Inflammation is when your skin or some other part of your body becomes red, swollen, hot, and sore. Inflammation happens because your body is trying to protect you from germs, from something that's in your body and could harm you (like a splinter) or from things that cause allergies (these things are called allergens). Inflammation is one of the ways in which your body heals an infection or an injury.

Animal activists push lawmakers to end Greyhound racing
Updated On: Feb 28 2014 05:52:45 PM EST
Taxes on Greyhound racing in Florida put about $3 million in the state treasury each year. Some are pushing to end the sport, and thousands of jobs and millions of dollars are at stake.
Lee Devon is a spirited champion Greyhound. She lives at a Madison County breeding farm with a hundred other dogs who are being trained for racing.
"She runs every Monday and Thursday morning," said Greyhound breeder Ron Gurley, "about 30 seconds."
State reports show 70 dogs died last year. Animal activists are pushing lawmakers to end dog racing.
RELATED: Report: Racing Greyhound dies every 3 days in Fla.
"They're dying for an activity that no one's betting on," said Grey2K USA Executive Director Carey Theil.
Gene Gurley, who has been a dog breeder since 1961, counters that it doesn't make sense for him to mistreat his dogs.
"For us, to get a dog to the race track, we've got $2,200 in that dog and we want him to do the very best he can," said Gene Gurley.
Jack Cory, who represents the breeders in front of lawmakers, said the 70 dogs who died make up less than 1 percent of all the dogs that raced in Florida. He blames tracks for the majority of deaths and injuries.
"One Greyhound dying prematurely is too many," said Cory. "However, of that 70, 50 percent of those were track injuries, and we have put forth the safety plan that could have stopped the majority of those 50 percent. Fix the track surface, maintain it to a standard."
State lawmakers are being asked by dog tracks to be able to stop racing dogs and simply offer card games. That would mean there'd be no place for these dogs to go.
Florida currently has 12 active dog tracks, producing about $3 million in tax revenue each year.
The Madison County greyhound farm is also rehabbing 15 dogs who were injured at tracks. Most will spend two months walking in a fenced area at their own pace, then begin walking a 20-minute mile under supervision until they heal.

Watch Danny Welbeck, Victor Anichebe, Ged Roddy and Richard Scudamore speak about the Youth Development System
The new Elite Player Performance Plan is the most comprehensive review of youth development in over a decade and is being introduced this summer.
The programme is designed to produce more and better quality home-grown players and to be the "world's best" in youth development.
The process includes the independent audit of all 92 Premier League and Football League club academies while there is also a brand new age-specific Games Programme, including the formation of the Barclays U21 Premier League, which aims to bridge the gap between Academy and first-team football.
We spoke to leading figures in the Barclays Premier League to discover why the EPPP and the Under-21 League is so important to the future of English football.
This can only help because the gap is huge. The pressures of playing in the first team are hard. There's not much pressure playing for the reserves.
But if you have prepared well for it, it will make it a lot easier. Hopefully this will bring through a lot more young players.
"The pressures of playing in the first team are hard"
Victor Anichebe
With the Under-21 League, having matches in stadiums will get the younger players used to playing in those big venues, it will get them used to preparing a day before the game and stuff like that. It's only going to help them.
It's great that the Premier League is really trying to help youngsters coming through. Everton are good club that have brought through a lot of good young players so hopefully the rest of teams can emulate this.
It's always nice for young players to see other youngsters coming through because we know how hard it is to make it.
We want to increase the numbers of people making the step up and create a situation where young players are well prepared for when the opportunity comes, because sometimes you only get one chance.
The game thrives on local talent. The fans are engaged when the local boy steps out on the grass and plays for his local team and that's part of the culture of football in this country.
This is about the future of our game. It's the most important thing that anyone can ever hope to be involved in. Those that work in Youth Development are in very privileged positions.
There is also a big responsibility that you are passing the baton on for the next generation so you have got to make sure that the infrastructure, the conditions, the environment, are absolutely the best in the world and that's what the EPPP is all about.
The plan will evolve. There will be things that we don't get right but we are in a place where we can tweak it if we need to.
A lot of what we have been proposing is common sense really. It's making sure that we do all of the little things that need to be done properly, we do them well, and, by we, I mean all of us collectively, the clubs, the League, the coaches and the players.
There is a huge amount of work to do and it's going to take time. I am desperate to see this thing succeed and so is everybody who has thrown their weight behind it.
"The game is moving on all the time so the youth system has to move with it"
Ged Roddy
We won't ever have to do what we have just done ever again. The system that we have now built re-audits all of the clubs every three years so the system won't drift. It will be able to refresh itself and that has got to be great news.
I hope that the system that we now have is set fair for the future and I hope that those that come in after us will inherit a system that enables them to evolve it effectively. The game is moving on all the time so the youth system has to move with it.
It's great to get good coaching right throughout your career. I have had that at Manchester United, I have been at the Academy since I was eight so I know what the benefits are.
It's really good that there is now going to be an Under-21 League and that the teams will be playing all across the country.
Knowing what it is like to travel, what to do, how to relax, what to eat, having the right foods, is going to be beneficial for the youngsters. It's just good preparation for when you finally make that step up into the first team.
The very exciting Under-21 League will play all through the weekend and is meant to be a league where young players have to get themselves ready to make that transition from local football into what is global football. You have to be a global talent to make it in a Premier League first team.
The fixtures are organised around making it as near to a proper Premier League experience as you can. Some of games will be played in the main stadia, which has not been the case before.
The whole thing has been set up to try to make this transition a real transition and it's going to be a hugely exciting development.

Funding will provide job and housing opportunities, increase social services throughout state
"Supporting these projects means an improvement in the quality of life for residents in cities and towns all across the Commonwealth," said Governor Patrick. "By leveraging state and federal recovery funds, we can continue to move our economy forward, put more individuals back to work, and fund more projects now and in the future."
The CDBG program is administered by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), and funds are distributed by the state Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD) to cities and towns in Massachusetts with populations of less than 50,000.
Funds are awarded competitively and are targeted to support community revitalization, meet the housing and social service needs of low- and moderate-income people and build and repair infrastructure vital to the health and safety of all residents. Eligible communities with populations greater than 50,000 receive funding directly from HUD. The maximum grant for a single community is $750,000 or $900,000 for a single community undertaking multiple, geographically targeted activities. Regional applications are also accepted.
Sixty-five Massachusetts cities and towns will receive regular CDBG program funding from DHCD. With the addition of recovery funds, nine of those communities, and an additional 10 towns, will also receive support for projects that were not successful in getting funded in FY 2008.
"This investment is a lifeline for communities across Massachusetts that have been drowning under busted budgets and the housing crunch. It will help thousands of low- to moderate-income families get back on their feet," said Senator John Kerry. "It means jobs, housing, and infrastructure help where it's needed most."
"Cities and towns are on the front lines of this economic downturn," said Congressman Mike Capuano. "It is critically important that the stimulus bill has provided this additional funding to continue to put people to work and give municipalities more resources."
"I'm particularly pleased that Clinton and Somerset will be receiving federal stimulus funding under the CDBG program," Congressman James McGovern said. "These funds are an important part of getting our economy moving again."
"These community development block grants will provide welcome relief for communities whose budgets are stretched thin and whose residents need opportunities to get back to work and get back on their feet. I am extremely pleased that Everett, Revere and Woburn were all successful in securing this vital funding," said Congressman Edward J. Markey.
"Community Development Block Grants fund a variety of critical development projects in our cities and towns such as affordable housing, public infrastructure improvements, and job creation programs," said Congresswoman Niki Tsongas. "Investing in the continued growth and vitality of our communities helps create safer neighborhoods, provides greater access to jobs, and helps produce the municipal services such as water and sewer service we all depend on."
"Over the years, cities and towns in southeastern Massachusetts and Cape Cod have come to rely on Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds to boost access to affordable housing, spur economic development and to improve the quality of life for everyone in our community," said Congressman William Delahunt. "These additional monies from the stimulus package will enable the outstanding work of the region's cities and towns to continue."
"I am pleased that these federal funds with allow the city of Amesbury to complete the work in the Aubin Nason Neighborhood. It will enhance Amesbury's ongoing neighborhood transformation and spur future investment in the region," said Congressman John F. Tierney.
"Competition for these very popular and flexible grants is great, but because resources are limited, we are sometimes unable to fund every worthwhile project," said Housing and Community Development Undersecretary Tina Brooks. "We are delighted that many good projects, including a number of public housing capital improvement proposals, that weren't accepted in 2008 can now move forward thanks to the use of these federal recovery funds."
Housing, economic and community development investments are critical components of Governor Patrick's Massachusetts Recovery Plan, which combines state, federal and, where possible, private efforts to provide immediate and long-term relief and position the Commonwealth for recovery in the following ways:
- Deliver immediate relief by investing in the road, bridge and rail projects that put people to work today and providing safety net services that sustain people who are especially vulnerable during an economic crisis;
- Build a better tomorrow through education and infrastructure investments that strengthen our economic competitiveness, prepare workers for the jobs of the future and support clean energy, broadband and technology projects that cut costs while growing the economy; and
- Reform state government by eliminating the pension and ethics loopholes that discredit the work of government and revitalize the transportation networks that have suffered from decades of neglect and inaction.

* Brent crude hits 9-month low on ample supply
* German shares lag after sentiment data shows Ukraine fear
* Euro dips towards nine-month low vs dollar
LONDON, Aug 12 (Reuters) - Crude oil hit a nine-month low on Tuesday as ample supply outweighed concern violence in the Middle East could disrupt output, easing the impact on investors of a fall in some European shares.
German shares fell on Tuesday and the euro weakened against the dollar after a gauge of economic sentiment in Europe's biggest economy hit its lowest since December 2012, reflecting the impact of the Ukraine crisis.
Wall Street looked set to open flat to slightly higher, according to stock index futures.
Brent crude fell more than $1 to less than $104 a barrel, its lowest since November.
The International Energy Agency (IEA) said that while the situation in several key oil-producing countries "remains more at risk than ever", supplies were ample.
Investors are closely following events in Iraq, where the president named a new prime minister on Monday to replace Nuri al-Maliki and the United States has bombed Islamic State insurgents.
"In terms of the physical side of things, particularly for Brent, there are pretty high inventories at the Atlantic Basin at the moment and that's holding back gains," said Ankit Pahuja, a commodity strategist at investment bank ANZ.
In another crisis troubling investors, Moscow said a convoy of 280 trucks carrying humanitarian aid set off for Ukraine, a day after the head of NATO warned against using offers of help as a pretext for invasion.
Germany's DAX index fell 0.7 percent, underperforming the pan-European FTSEurofirst 300 index , which was down just 0.1 percent.
"The drop in the ZEW index confirms the near-term downside risk for the German and euro zone economies emanating from the Ukraine crisis," said Berenberg Bank economist Christian Schulz.
"That does not change the fundamentally positive outlook, however. Germany remains in a strong position to capitalise on any sentiment improvements once the Ukraine crisis fades from the headlines, and many euro zone countries are enjoying the benefits of their reforms."
The euro fell as low as $1.3337, just above a nine-month low of $1.3333 hit last week, as the plunge in German investor morale exacerbated worries about a slowdown in the euro zone's economic recovery.
"The sentiment survey is consistent with some of the loss in momentum we have seen for the German economy and does not bode well for the euro zone," said Jeremy Stretch, head of currency strategy at CIBC World Markets.
Russian shares fell, reversing big gains on Monday. The dollar-denominated RTS index lost 0.8 percent while the rouble-based MICEX fell 0.2 percent. The rouble was 0.66 percent weaker against the dollar at 36.14.
Things had looked less bearish in Asia. MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan rose 0.6 percent, adding to Monday's 1.5 percent gain. Tokyo's Nikkei stock index firmed 0.2 percent.
The dollar edged higher against other major currencies, helped by a slight rise in U.S. Treasury yields, though the geopolitical tensions that have dominated financial markets in recent weeks were expected to restrict gains.
The U.S. currency edged up 0.1 percent to 102.27 yen, having hit a two-week low of 101.51 yen on Friday.
U.S. 10-year Treasury notes yielded 2.43 percent, up a shade from New York closing levels.
Yields on German government debt, the euro zone benchmark, edged down less than a basis point to 1.057 percent . German yields touched a series of record lows in recent days as investors sought assets perceived as safe havens, before rebounding on Monday.
Gold firmed as equities fell. It last traded at just over $1,311 an ounce.

Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool 220.127.116.11 [20.12.2014]
However, in case the infection has already reached the PC and the security software app has been neutralized, there is one more tool that can be tested: Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool.
Install the removal tool even on infected systems
In most cases, when the virus is already on the target PC, there is nothing much one can do because the malware typically does not allow users to install or update any antivirus software.
Kaspersky's tool on the other hand has taken some protective measures: it can be installed on infected computers, even in Safe Mode, and it can automatically remove viruses, Trojans, rootkits, adware or spyware.
User-friendly layout and fast scan process
Installation is extremely quick and the scan process is very fast, with the application remaining quite friendly with the computer resources. The interface of Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool is equally intuitive, and users can only press the Scan button and continue with their work, as the process will run in the background.
Activate the in-depth analysis mode
If the results of the automatic scan are not satisfactory, one can also try the Manual Disinfection which performs an in-depth analysis of the computer, then generates a detailed report that can be sent to Kaspersky for further processing.
Specify the target location
Alternatively, one can also choose the target type of data that needs to be scanned, thus restricting the area of analysis, and the time of the scan, but this is only advisable when users are aware of the location of the infection. Also, modifying the security level to High can result in longer scanning times.
Last but not least, Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool allows users to choose the action they want to take when a threat is detected, so experts can attempt to manually process the issue.
Bottom line
Overall, in case viruses and other infections have reached one's computer, Kaspersky's tool can come to the rescue. But one should note that keeping a computer clean comes down to installing a full version of an antivirus solution, with real-time protection and periodic updates.

text: Well, since I read graveyard shifter's thread about his woman trying to constrain him towards marriage and a lot of y'all replied he should do it when he's older ... this is my question: what's the ideal age to get married? When do you "plan" on committing or at what age would you like to start a family? For the ones who are/were already married you can tell us the age when you got married and if you think you made the right decision.

Barnum lecture opens locked doors
|A 'Zouave'-style Civil War jacket circa 1861-1865 is one of many unique artifacts in the Barnum Museum collection rarely on display. It will be shown during the presentation on Tuesday. Credit: Barnum Museum
"Never Before Seen," the next free lunchtime lecture series at the Barnum Museum in Bridgeport, will be on Tuesday at 12:15 p.m.
The program will feature items researched by the museum's collections manager Adrienne Saint-Pierre and registrar Melissa Houston. "Never Before Seen" will provide the public with the opportunity to view up close a few of the artifacts that are rarely on display.
This "behind-the-scenes" glimpse of portions of the museum's 25,000-piece collection will also discuss the origin, history and significance of each artifact selected. The program will be held in the People's United Bank Gallery, connected at the back of the museum's historic structure, with a subsequent program being held on Nov. 13. Attendees are invited to bring their lunches.
During Tuesday's program, Saint-Pierre will be talking about Civil War items in the museum's collection. One item is a hand-written newspaper titled "The Old Flag," written by Union Capt. William H. May during his imprisonment in the Confederate prison Camp Ford.
May produced "The Old Flag" exclusively for the Union prisoners to covertly provide battle information as well as humor to his fellow imprisoned troops. The newspaper consists of four pages densely covered in meticulous hand-writing, which appears to be a "printed" document.
The newspaper was secretly circulated throughout the camp and finally returned to May, who preserved it by sewing it into the shoulder straps of his military coat and sneaking it out of camp upon his release. Many years ago, the very fragile newspaper was put in a frame between two pieces of glass so that it could be seen and read.
Another item Saint-Pierre will show is a Civil War jacket and vest worn by a young man who served in the 9th New York Volunteer Infantry known as Hawkins Zouaves. The various "Zouave" regiments (both Union and Confederate) adopted and adapted a distinctive style of uniform originally worn by legendary North African fighters, and subsequently adopted in 1853 by the French during the Crimean War. Baggy trousers, a tasseled "fez" hat and a short jacket with elaborate braidwork characterize the style.
Saint-Pierre will explain how the Zouave style influenced women's fashions of the mid-1800s and how the style was depicted in works of art by Vincent Van Gogh and Winslow Homer.

The verdict came in: guilty as sin.
I refer to the recent child sex abuse case against Carol Hann and Robert Caravella of Plymouth. Over the past year, the local media really milked this story for all it was worth. Unless you just landed in the Wyoming Valley from a distant galaxy, you've been fed this story a few dozen times in newspaper headlines and in top stories on the local TV evening news. Yes, some investigative journalists are going to win some awards and advance their careers. But also, two defendants are facing long prison sentences.
I do not condone child abuse of any kind, but considering all the media frenzy surrounding this case, I find it hard to believe that these defendants received a fair trial . We've been suffering too long from a corrupt and flawed criminal justice system. We're pinning the future of our justice system on newly elected judges and on an energetic young district attorney. We've come too far and have too much emotional and intellectual energy invested to allow the well-meaning overzealous media to cloud our sense of judgment and justice.
It's great to sell newspapers and to boost TV ratings, but can we expect anyone accused of a heinous crime to receive a fair hearing? I thought the job of a professional journalist is not to sensationalize the news, but to report the news accurately, fairly and responsibly. If these defendants are truly guilty, yes, I agree they should receive harsh sentences.
I hope these defendants can find a good knowledgeable apellant attorney who would be willing to re-examine the facts surrounding this case.
As District 12 American Legion Luzerne County Department of Pennsylvania Commander, I would like to wish all Legion members and their families, along with the Sons of The American Legion and the American Legion Auxiliary in Luzerne County a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Also, I hope those veterans who are away from home, come home safe. I would also like to say how proud I am of my comrades. American Legion posts of Luzerne County put in so many volunteer hours to help veterans in need, supporting local school programs and the community. A big salute to every one of them !
