This is the second product of its kind to be released in South Africa after the Medicines Control Council (MCC) gave its approval late in February this year. The first product, launched by GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) in February, protects against HPV types 16 and 18 – which cause cervical cancer. MSD's product, a quadrivalent recombinant vaccine, also guards against types 16 and 18, but extends protection to include strains 6 and 11 which are responsible for genital warts. This product is priced at R770 per injection, compared to R700 charged for the GSK product. Cervical cancer a real threat Cervical cancer is the main cancer affecting South African women. "One in every 31 women is diagnosed with cervical cancer in her lifetime and it kills over 3 400 women in South Africa each year," says Martha Molete from the Cancer Association of South Africa (CANSA). According to Molete, the vaccine could save hundreds of thousands of lives and could eradicate cervical cancer in time. In over 80 percent of cases, cervical cancer is caused by the human papilloma virus (HPV), which is a very common sexually transmitted infection. It is estimated that between 60 and 80 percent of all sexually active individuals may be infected. Although the strains of HPV that causes cervical cancer (HPV 16 and 18) don't affect men, they are carriers of the disease and can infect their female sexual partners. The vaccine is already in use in the UK and the US, and is recommended for use in girls and women from the age of 10 upwards. Cervical cancer - a background Cervical cancer is a common disease in the developing world. Pap smears are currently the recommended method of screening, according to the World Health Organization (WHO) and the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). Although it is a preventable disease that is curable if detected and treated in its early stages, it remains the leading cause of cancer-related deaths in South African women, according to the Medical Research Council. Factors that increase a woman's risk for developing cervical cancer include early sexual activity, multiple sexual partners and smoking.

There's been a lot of friction about the Start screen in Windows 8. The default setup in Windows 10 is to show the Start menu instead of the Start screen. However, you can easily choose to use the Start screen instead of the Start menu.
There's been a lot of friction about the Start screen in Windows 8. The default setup in Windows 10 is to show the Start menu instead of the Start screen. However, you can easily choose to use the Start screen instead of the Start menu.
The command prompt in Windows 10 finally has CTRL+C and CTRL+V functionality yet, by default, the much touted upgrade isn't on. Let's fix that oversight right now.
Virtual desktops were finally added as a built-in feature in Windows 10. If you've used Linux or Mac, you know this can be a very useful feature. If you open a lot of programs at once, this feature allows you to keep them organized.
Microsoft wants your feedback about Windows 10 — really, they need it. This is the most important feature in the Windows 10 Technical Preview — not a Start menu, virtual desktops, or windowed "universal apps."
Want to install Windows 10 on your own PC? We've got you covered with the instructions, although it's just like installing any other version of Windows.
The Windows 10 Start Menu is really quite busy with all of those live tiles all over it. If that isn't your thing, luckily you can remove them all really easily.
Today Microsoft officially announced the next version of Windows, which was expected to be called Windows 9, or maybe Windows One, or even maybe just Windows. But it's Windows 10. Here are the highlights.
If you've purchased a "System Builder" OEM copy of Windows 8.1 from Amazon, Newegg, or another online retailer, you're probably violating the Windows license agreement. That means you technically have a "non-genuine" copy of Windows.
We send a lot of email these days—at work, at home, on our phones… But do you know what all the email jargon means? Keep reading to find out more about the difference between the various ways to receive email.
Windows doesn't offer a built-in way for users to make a window always-on-top. There are many third-party tools for this, but they're often bloated and clunky. Some just don't work well on the modern 64-bit version of Windows.
You probably shouldn't update your BIOS, but sometimes you need to. Here's how to check what BIOS version your computer is using and flash that new BIOS version onto your motherboard as quickly and safely as possible.
Microsoft's Windows To Go feature installs Windows as a live system on a bootable USB drive. It's officially only for Enterprise editions of Windows, but we've found a way to do it with any edition of Windows 8 or 8.1.
If you are writing a batch file and you don't want to continue until somebody presses a key, you can do it really easy with the timeout command.
When Windows blue-screens, it creates memory dump files — also known as crash dumps. This is what Windows 8's BSOD is talking about when it says its "just collecting some error info."
The System Information panel has always been a great way to get more information about your system, but in Windows 8 you will have a hard time figuring out how to open it. Here's how to do it.
If you've configured Windows to automatically log you in rather than having to enter a password, you might find it annoying that you still need to enter a password when your PC comes out of sleep mode. Here's the quick fix.
These days, you can share files using all of the different cloud storage providers like Dropbox and OneDrive, but if all you want is a super easy way to share files with people, Jumpshare might be worth a look.
There is nothing quite like the awesome feeling of finally being able to perform a major upgrade on your computer, but what do you do when your system refuses to make use of the whole upgrade? Today's SuperUser Q&A post has the answer to a frustrated reader's question.
Cloud storage isn't just for your own personal files. You can use it to easily share files without any hassle. Share files back-and-forth with your friends and colleagues, or make them available to the entire Internet.
Microsoft once claimed the original 64 GB Surface Pro would have only 23 GB of usable free space — that's more than half used for system files! But Windows now fits on 16 GB drives.
Keyboard shortcuts are a crucial way to do almost anything on your computer faster, whether it's browsing the web, working with text, or just getting around your desktop. Among its other useful features, VLC is packed with keyboard shortcuts.
The cloud storage wars are heating up. Microsoft now offers 1 TB of cloud storage along with Office 365, and both Dropbox and Google are offering 1 TB at just $10 per month. Flickr even offers 1 TB for free.
Every Windows user is fighting a constant war against junkware that legitimate application installers try to sneak onto our systems. Here's everything you can do to protect yourself from obnoxious browser toolbars and all that other junk.
According to an old rule of thumb, your page file or swap should be "double your RAM" or "1.5x your RAM." But do you really need a 32 GB page file or swap if you have 16 GB of RAM?
Hyper-V is a virtual machine feature built into Windows. It was originally part of Windows Server 2008, but made the leap the to desktop with Windows 8. Hyper-V allows you to create virtual machines without any additional software.

Is there a way to show the minion's health bars but not champions? If I turn off champion health bars it also turns off the minions. I can switch between the different ways to display minions's health bars, but only if Champion health bars are turned on.

"I love that I was able to adjust the shape of the invitation, I did the rounded corners instead of the ticked corners like it is shown with. I also love that you can choose for something to be on the back of it. It adds just a touch of something different from other invitations that are out there. The card is slightly rustic & slightly girly which matches the shower theme perfectly! I can't wait to host this shower!"
"Perfect for a baby shower - It has a feeling of warmth, love, and joy! The card is beautifully designed and expresses the happiness of the occasion."
"This particular card looks AMAZING with the pearl white shimmer paper- not too shimmery, and easy to read still- but gives it that little "extra.""
"I ordered these with a pearlescent shimmer and received a compliment from almost every guest. For a simplistic and beautiful invite that is elegant, I highly recommend this one!"
"These invites were perfect for our woodland themed baby shower. We chose the matte finish and they had the perfect touch of vintage meets woodland creature keeping with our theme."

A Polk County man knew his rights and apparently believed they gave him permission not to cooperate with police just after midnight Sunday. But actions taken by the man have landed him in jail.
James S. Meyer, 60, believed to be from St. Croix Falls, was taken into custody in Lakeland around 4 a.m. Sunday after he led police on a chase through the west side of North Hudson and onto the St. Croix River at Ferry Landing Park.

I can't seem to find an answer to this one, so I thought I would check here. I recently upgraded from Netbeans 6.9.1 to 7.0. In 6.9.1, if I undocked the editor window (for use on a second monitor) and then double-clicked a file in the Projects view, the file would open in the opened undocked editor. In 7.0, it opens in the empty section of the rest of the docked IDE, and I have to drag it to the undocked editor. I don't remember changing a setting in 6.9.1 to turn on the desired behaviour. Sounds like a small thing, but it gets annoying if you are opening and closing files frequently.
Anyone know how to remedy this?
Hopefully it is not too obvious, but if it is, I will eat my humble pie and you can return to your regularly scheduled day...

Birth to six months
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) does recommend nursing 10 to 15 minutes on each breast, 8 to 12 times a day. But breastfeeding isn't an exact science, and, unfortunately, many moms make the mistake I did and look to these guidelines as if they were the law.
"When you give moms, particularly young moms, a hard rule, they worry when their child doesn't fit that rule," says William H. Dietz, M.D., Ph.D., editor of The AAP Guide to Your Child's Nutrition and director of the division of nutrition and physical activity at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta. Many healthy babies won't breastfeed according to AAP guidelines. Variables, particularly in the intensity of a baby's suck and the force of a woman's letdown (the reflex that causes the release of breast milk), can affect how much an infant is getting at each feeding. For example, my daughter may have gotten more milk in 7 minutes than another child would in 20.
A better measure of whether your child is getting enough to eat is how frequently she is urinating and how satisfied she seems, says Dr. Dietz. Look for six to eight wet diapers a day and three or four with stool, says Carol Huotari, research librarian at the La Leche League Center for Breastfeeding Information in Schaumburg, Illinois, and a certified lactation consultant. Because disposable diapers are designed to feel dry, she says, they can be deceiving. She suggests pouring a ¼ cup of water in one and checking it to get the feel of a wet diaper.
Moms who choose formula have a better handle on how much their babies are eating -- they can measure it. Most young babies consume two to three ounces at a feeding, for a daily total of two to three ounces per pound. But formula-fed infants have surges and drops in appetite just like the rest of us; a baby may guzzle at one feeding, and then wait longer until the next and be fine.
Weight gain may be the most important factor in determining whether a baby is eating properly. Some weight loss after birth is normal, but a baby should not lose more than 10 percent of his weight in the first few days (that's about 13 ounces in an eight-pound baby).
A breastfed baby may initially lose more weight than a bottle-fed one because her mother's milk has not come in, or they're both still learning to breastfeed, says Marianne Neifert, M.D., Babytalk contributing editor and author of Dr. Mom's Guide to Breastfeeding. If a breastfed baby isn't gaining enough weight, a doctor may recommend supplementing with formula. Weight loss in a bottle-fed baby is more alarming since it isn't a milk-supply problem.

HTTOENEX levels of current, since it in the cable reel.
- ROTARY CURREN COLLECTOR The instant invention relates to rotary current collectors for part, as in electrically powered equipment.
In electrically powered mobile equipment, one system for delivering current is to provide a cable reel on which there is storeda substantial length of cable that is connected to the electrical source. As the mobile equipment moves away from the source, the cable is reeled out from the cable reel, and as the mobile equipment moves towards the source the cable is reeled in on the reel. The cable reel is connected to the drive system of the equipment so that the rotation of the reel is related to the movement of the equipmentand the length of cable that is reeled out or reeled in is equal to the distance traveled by the equipment in either direction.
A rotary current collector provides electrical connection between the cable on the rotating cable reel and the electrical conducting electrical current from a rotating part to a fixed v pended claims.
system with the fixed electrical elements in the equipment.
The rotary current collector has previously been placed within the cable reel, for example, as illustrated in the earlier patent to C.'Nl. Harrington, Pat. No. 3,032,616, May 1, 1962. Such arrangement is advantageous to utilize the space within the cable reel for the current collector and provides a compact construction. However, the current collectoris limited by the availability of space within the cable reel. Also, the accessibility of the current collector is somewhat dependent on the disposition of the cable reel.
There is a't'rend todevelop mobile equipment capable of higher levelsof performance with higher power demands in order to achieve the higher performance. In such equipment the electrical system,1including thecurrent collector, must be increased in size in order to handle the higher currents which are necessitated by the increased powerof the equipment.
Referring to the drawings,
FIG. 1 is a sectional view of the current collector and a cable reel with which the current collector is used;
FIG. 2 is a view of the current collector taken on the line 2-2 in FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is an enlarged sectional view of the current collector, similar to FIG. 1; and I FIG. 4 is a sectional view of the rotating member of the current collector in another position.
. Referring to FIG. 1, there is illustrated a cable reel 10, which may be in a unit of electrically powered mobile equipment'comprising opposite. side plates 11,12. The side plates 11,12 are fixed structure of the equipment. A current collector l3is secured tothe side plate 11, and the one adjacent end of the cable reel 10 is secured to the current collector 13 for rotation relatively to the side plate 11, as will be described in detail below. The other end of the cable reel 10, adjacent the side plate 12, is rotatably supported on the latter by a bearing 14 which engages a short shaft 15 of the cable reel 10.
v The ends of the cable reel 10 have radial flanges 16,17 for i containingthe cable on the drum part 18, which supports the cable. A sprocket 19 is secured to the cable reel 10 and is connected to the drive system of the mobile equipment for rotating the cable reel 10 in relation to the movement of the equipment, such that the length of cable that is reeled in or out is equal to the distance traveled by the' mobile equipment.
Another smaller sprocket 20 is connected to a spooling device When the current collector is placed within the cable reel,
there is a limitation on the size of such current collector, since it must be related to the size of the cable reel. Such current collector cannot be increased in size to handle the higher is limited by the availability of space The current collector of this invention is removed from within the cable reel and is placed at one end of the cable reel and is securedto a fixed part of the equipment. The current collector opens outwardly of the equipment to be easily accessible for m'aintenance and service, and extends inwardly to to synchronously drive the latter, winding the cable on or off the drum 18 from one end tothe other end. The inner end of cable 22 is secured to cable reel 10 by a clamp from which I point the cable 22 is wound on the drum 18 in the customary manner. I
As illustrated in FIG. 1, the cable 22 has three conductor elements 25, 26, 27 and two ground elements 28,29. Such three conductor cable 22 is for alternating current. In equipment that is operated by direct current, a two-conductor cable is used. The conductor 25 is attached to a' connector part 30 an end of the cable reel to support the latter on a rotating part of the current collector. The other end ofthe cable reel is rotatably supported on a fixed part of the equipment; The
cable on the reel is electrically connected to the rotating part of the current collector, the latter being fixed relatively to the cable reel.
power and is led from the clamp 23 through the inside of the drum 18 to the current collector 13.. The conductor 27 is similarly attached to a connector part 31, and the conductor 26 is similarly attached to a connector part 32, as seen in FIG. 4.
The ground elements 28,29 are attached to a connector part 33 and'led through the inside of the drum to the current collector 13.
. The current collector 13 a housing 35 with a fixed member 36 secured to the side plate 11 by several cap screws 37. The fixed member 36 of the housing 35 opens. outwardly of side plate 11 to provide a large access opening 38 for access to the elements contained within housing 35. A cover 39 is secured to the fixed member 36 by several cap screws 40 to close and seal the opening 38. The fixed member 36 and cover 39 are formed of metal for rigidity and strength.
It is another object to provide an improved current collector which is secured to a fixedpart of the equipment.
It is a further object to provide an improved current collector which is placed on a fixed part of the equipment to provide convenient access for service and maintenance of the current collector.
It is also an object to provide an improved current collectorwith a rotating part that extends inwardly to support a cable reel or other rotating unit.
It is still another object to provide an improved current collector which is enclosed in a sealed housing that is supported .on a fixed part of the equipment. It is still a further object to provide an improved current collector'with a rotating member'and a fixed member, in which the rotating member extends through the fixed member, with a bearing to rotatably support the rotating member on the fixed member. Y
The fixed member 36 extends inwardly of the side plate 11 with a hub 41 that provides a seat 42 for bearing 43. A rotating member 44 of the current collector 13 has a barrel 45 that extends through the hub 41 of fixed member 36. The rotating member 44 is formed of electrically nonconductive material to provide insulation for several electrical conductors in rotating' member 44. The barrel 45 has ametal sleeve 46 secured on the barrel '45 .by molding barrel 45 within the sleeve 46. The metal sleeve 46 is engaged with the inner race of bearing 43 to support rotating member 44 on the fixed member 36 for rotation relatively to the latter. An O-ring seal 50 is between ring 49. This construction effectively supports the one end of the cable reel on current collector 13 by means of the bearing 43 that is engaged with and secured to each of the fixed member 36 and the metal sleeve 46 on the barrel 45 of the rotating member 44.
The connector part 33 is connected to a ground conductor 52 that is disposed on the axis of the barrel 45. The connector part 30 is connected to a conductor 53, the connector part 31 is connected to a conductor 54, and the connector part 32 is connected to a conductor 55, as seen in FIGS. 3 and 4. The several conductors 53, 54, 55 are in the barrel 45 at circumferentially spaced positions around the ground conductor 53.
Conductor 53 is connected to a radially disposed conductor 56, and conductor 55 is connected to a radially disposed conductor 57. The conductor 56 is connected to an outer current collector ring 60, the conductor 54 is connected to an inner current collector ring 61, and the conductor 57 is connected to an intermediate current collector ring 62. The several current collector rings 60, 61, 62 are concentrically disposed at radially spaced positions around the axis of the barrel 45 and the ground conductor 52. The several conductors and current collector rings are all fixedly secured to the rotating member 44, which is accomplished by molding the material of the rotating member 44 around these several conductor elements. Such material may be a polyester plastic, which is electrically nonconductive, and is particularly suitable for this applicatron.
There is a support 65 secured to the fixed member 36 by several cap screws 66. The support is formed of electrically nonconductive material, which may be a polyester plastic, so as to be electrically insulating.
A fixed ground conductor 68 is held by the support 65 opposite the ground conductor 52 and in abutting disposition to the latter. A spring 69 is between the support 65 and the ground conductor 68 to press the latter against the ground conductor 52 to maintain electrical contact. A ground lead 70 is secured to the ground conductor 68 by a nut 71, and the other end of the ground lead 70 is connected to the fixed member 36 by a cap screw 72, thereby making connection to the side plate 11 and the frame of the equipment, as seen in FIG. 2.
An outer fixed current collector ring 78 is held by the support 65 opposite the current collector ring 60 in abutting disposition to the latter. The current collector ring 78 is held on the support 65 by several cap screws 76, which extend freely through support 65 and are threaded into ring 78. The cap screws 76 are preferably made of nylon so as to be insulating. Several springs 77 are disposed between support 65 and current collector ring 78 to press the latter against current collector ring 70 to maintain electrical contact.
An inner fixed current collector ring 79 is disposed opposite current collector ring 61 in abutting disposition, and an intermediate fixed current collector ring 80 is disposed opposite current collector ring 62 in abutting disposition. Each of current collector rings 79, 80 is held on support 65 by several cap screws 76, which are preferably of nylon, to be insulating, and there are several springs 77, disposed between support 65 and each of the current collector rings 79, 80, to press these against current collector rings 61,62, respectively, to maintain electrical contact. The current collector rings 73, 79, 80 are fixed with the fixed member 36, and the several current collector rings 60, 61, 62 are rotatable relatively to the fixed current collector rings with the rotatable member 44.
A post 81 is connected to the outer current collector ring 78, and flexible leads 82, 83 are connected to the post 81 and extend to the clamp 84. Electrical lead 85 is secured by clamp 84 and extends out of the housing 35 through a packing element 86. Posts 87,88 are connected to the inner current collector ring 79, and flexible leads 89,90 extend from the posts 87,88, respectively, to an electrical clamp 91. Electrical lead 92 is secured by the clamp 91 and extends out of the housing 35 through a packing element 93'. A post 94 is connected to the intermediate current collector rin 80, and flexible leads 95,96 are connected to the post 9 3 an extend to the electrical clamp 97. Electrical lead 98 is secured by the electrical clamp 97 and extends out of the housing 35 through a packing element 99. The several electrical leads 85, 92, 98 extend from the current collector housing 35 to the electrical system of the electrically powered equipment.
As described herein the rotary current collector 35 is secured to the side plate 11 of the mobile equipment, which may be part of the fixed frame structure. The current collector is readily accessible for service and maintenance, and may be made of such size as to accept the current for the power requirements of the equipment. The rotating part of the current collector extends inwardly to the cable reel which is secured to such rotating part and supported for rotation.
Obviously those skilled in the art may make various changes in the details and arrangements of parts without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention, and applicant therefore wishes not to be restricted to the precise construction herein disclosed.

Date — 16 January, 2012
Heading up the professional Pilot's Watches from IWC Schaffhausen is the new 2012 TOP GUN collection. And in the vanguard is the new Miramar line: a tribute to the birthplace of the Top Gun legend in California.
The pilots who graduate from the United States Navy Fighter Weapons School in Fallon, Nevada, are part of the world's flying elite. Their insignia: Top Gun. Top Gun is also the name of an IWC watch collection offering the very best in mechanical watchmaking today. And in 2012, five new models will be taking off. Three of them feature the classical TOP GUN design, recognizable from the instrument look of the dial and the attractive mix of materials consisting of ceramic for the case, titanium for the push-buttons and crown, as well as the soft strap material. They are joined by two timepieces in the new TOP GUN Miramar line. The design of the case and dial was inspired by old observer's watches. The most conspicuous visual features are the shimmering metallic grey of the ceramic case and the rugged green textile strap.
The Big Pilot's Watch TOP GUN (Ref. 501901) combines the clear-cut instrument look of the 1940s with ultra-modern watch technology from the 21st century. Fully wound, the IWC-manufactured 51111-calibre movement consisting of 311 components will keep the movement running for 7 days. And if it is not already clear, the Top Gun insignia on the case back says it all: the Big Pilot's Watch has entered the age of supersonic flight. The Big Pilot's Watch TOP GUN Miramar (Ref. 501902) incorporates precisely the same technical features but comes in three colours: matte grey, beige and green: in design terms a first for IWC.
The ideal choice for complex airborne manoeuvres is the Pilot's Watch Chronograph TOP GUN (Ref. 388001) with protection against magnetic fields and glass secured against drops in pressure. And with the IWC-manufactured 89365-calibre movement, it is equally impressive on the inside. With the same specifications, the Pilot's Watch Chronograph TOP GUN Miramar (Ref. 388002) features the new design and is equally "airworthy".
No less impressive is the Big Pilot's Watch Perpetual Calendar TOP GUN (Ref. 502902), with a wealth of complex technological features that include a perpetual calendar with four-digit year display, moon phase display and 7-day power reserve. Working away inside the black ceramic case is one of IWC's largest and most efficient automatic winding systems.

Asking the ultimate of man and machine
The Edition TOP GUN has held a permanent place in IWC's Pilot's Watch family since 2007. It takes its name from a special training course offered by the United States Navy Fighter Weapons School, the "Strike Fighter Tactics Instructor", better known by the legendary accolade "Top Gun". Pilots who successfully complete this course are part of a tiny elite comprising the best trained, fastest reacting and most courageous of their breed. The technology used is state of the art. Within the space of a few seconds, the jets reach their take-off speed of just under 300 km/h. During training flights above the endless deserts of Nevada, they hurtle through the air at up to twice the speed of sound.
As exacting as the demands placed on the young pilots, they are no less stringent than those placed on the equipment. The quality standards required of a watch designed for flying are formidable, and IWC Schaffhausen swears by two materials that it was the first to use in watchmaking worldwide: high-tech ceramic for the case and titanium for the crown and controls. The zirconium oxide case is sintered at 2,000 degrees Celsius and machined with diamond tools. It is also non-magnetic, acid-resistant, light and, like titanium, very skin-friendly. IWC introduced titanium to watch casemaking while working with Porsche Design. Both companies were forerunners in the machining of this high-tech material, which is corrosion-resistant and tougher than steel but weighs only about half as much.
During dogfights – air-to-air combat calling for spectacular manoeuvres that any pilot must master – both man and material are subject to enormous g-forces. The cockpit occupant briefly undergoes the equivalent of up to nine times the acceleration of gravity. He is pushed back forcefully into his seat: his body contorts and even his watch presses deeply into his wrist. During regular centrifuge sessions, the pilots have to tolerate 9 g for 15 seconds, which seems like an eternity, without losing consciousness, as their own weight increases to around 600 kilograms. In a similar test with a centrifugal accelerator, IWC Pilot's Watches have withstood forces of up to 30 g for minutes at a time. So what possible use could that be? Generally speaking, none at all. But when the ejector seat is used, it generates forces of up to 20 g and the Pilot's Watch designers in Schaffhausen think like the Top Gun instructors in Fallon: it's better to be safe than sorry.

Planning a vacation on your own takes time and might not help you save as much money as you might think. If you want to travel but are not sure how to plan your vacation or simply do not have the time to do it, your best option is to go through a travel agency.
Travel agencies usually offer many different vacation packages. This is a great place to start your search if you are not sure where you want to go on vacation. You can of course do some research on the Internet to learn more about different destinations and vacation packages but an agency will make this information more accessible if you do not have the time to do some thorough research.
You can let your travel agency know what your budget is and they will find the right vacation package for you. Without the help of an agency, you will find yourself spending a lot of time comparing prices for hotels and flights before finding a vacation you can afford. The agency you go to should be able to provide you with a few different options in your price range and give you some useful tips on how to book an affordable vacation.
Most travel agencies test the vacation packages they offer and listen to the feedback they get from their clients. If you choose an agency that has been around for a while and make sure they have a great reputation, the vacation you book will meet all your expectations. Booking your vacation by yourself can be risky since finding a quality hotel or a reliable airline is not easy if you do not travel often.
Travel agencies often offer discounted vacation packages. If you are looking for an affordable vacation, getting in touch with different agencies to learn more about the different discounted vacations they offer is your best option. You can usually get lower prices if you book your vacation at the last moment or if you travel outside of the busiest time of the year, which usually include the summer months for most destinations.
A reliable agency should offer some kind of insurance and guarantee for your vacation. If you plan your entire vacation by yourself, you will have a hard time getting your money back if you are unable to go on the trip you planned. Travel agencies usually offer a comprehensive insurance policy that allows you to get your money back if you have to cancel your trip. Most agencies also offer guarantees regarding the quality of the trips you book through them.
Going through an agency to book your vacation is more affordable than you think and will help you save a lot of time. If you have no experience with planning vacations, it is best to let professionals do it so that you are not disappointed with your trip. Take the time to compare different agencies to make sure you book your trip through a reliable company.

BEIJING: Almost 2,000 Chinese citizens were evacuated from riot-hit Vietnam by sea on Monday, with another two ships following, as Hanoi stifled fresh protests over a territorial dispute and foreign investors counted the cost.
The passenger vessels Wuzhishan and Tongguling left the central Vietnamese port of Vung Ang, each with more than 900 evacuees on board, China's official news agency Xinhua reported.
They were among four Chinese ships - each with a capacity of about 1,000 people - sent to Vietnam, Xinhua said, with another two on standby.
Workers voiced relief as they boarded the vessels, the agency reported, with some declaring: "Finally home."
Relations between communist neighbours Vietnam and China have plummeted following Beijing's move earlier this month to send a deep-water drilling rig into contested waters in the South China Sea.
Two Chinese nationals were killed and about 140 injured when enraged mobs torched or otherwise damaged hundreds of foreign-owned businesses in Vietnam last week.
More than 3,000 Chinese have already returned home from Vietnam by sea and air, reports said at the weekend.
Determined to avoid a repeat of the violence, authorities deployed heavy security in various cities around the country on Sunday to smother an attempt by activist groups to stage fresh, coordinated demonstrations against Beijing's actions.
There were no reports of any further disturbances in Vietnam on Monday and Hanoi was calm, with authorities scaling back the heavy security presence that had blocked access to the Chinese embassy and other key points in the city.
"The situation has returned to normal now," the official Vietnam News Agency said.
In its first reference to the Chinese evacuations, it added that Vietnamese authorities "did their utmost to facilitate" the exodus.
Activist groups have said several of their members were detained as they sought to demonstrate. Their status was unknown Monday.
To stay or not to stay?
Hanoi initially lauded "patriotic" displays by its citizens, but has backpedalled furiously after the violence - which hit a number of non-Chinese facilities - badly stained the country's image as a safe destination for sorely needed foreign investment.
Vietnam offers abundant cheap labour and secured $21.6 billion in foreign direct investment last year, up from $16.3 billion in 2012, according to government figures.
"This will definitely have a big impact on the country's image, which so far had been seen as foreign-investor friendly," said a foreign diplomat who spoke on condition of anonymity.
"These actions went way beyond what is acceptable in terms of basic law and order."
Economist Nguyen Quang A said the government must move swiftly and decisively to restore confidence among foreign investors already complaining about corruption, bureaucracy, a lack of legal and regulatory transparency and other issues.
"The government has done some things, but it's not enough," said Quang A.
Authorities have pledged to help enterprises rebuild and restore their operations, and said more than 300 suspects have been arrested.
The two nations compete as a destination for investment.
The state-run China Daily newspaper in an editorial Monday raised the prospect of long-term economic damage to Vietnam due to the protests.
"If investors are not confident a government can guarantee a secure investment environment, they will understandably hesitate over making the decision to invest," it wrote.
"To stay or not to stay is now the question for those who already have factories in the Southeast Asian country."
China's foreign ministry has appealed to citizens to avoid travelling to Vietnam.
Several major Chinese travel agencies have suspended their Vietnam tours, Xinhua reported.
"We have also suspended some of our bilateral exchanges," foreign ministry spokesman Hong Lei told reporters at a regular briefing Monday. "We will consider taking further actions in accordance with the development of the situation."
In 2012 Japanese nationals, businesses and diplomatic missions were targeted in violent protests that erupted in several major Chinese cities after Tokyo nationalised disputed islands in the East China Sea.
At the time Beijing was criticised for allowing the protests, which the Japanese government estimated caused damage worth more than $100 million. -AFP

Constantive Mal'cev clones on finite sets are finitely related
Abstract | References | Similar Articles | Additional Information
Abstract: We show that on a finite set there are at most countably many constantive clones that contain a Mal'cev operation, and each such clone can be described by a single finitary relation. Thus, modulo polynomial equivalence and renaming of the elements, there are only countably many finite algebras that contain a Mal'cev term.

This was, without question, the most satisfying coffee I've had in Vietnam. Sure, you can get Vietnamese style coffees elsewhere for cheaper, but if you want a good coffeehouse style coffee, then this is an excellent option.

A short walk from our hotel (Victory Hotel, Saigon), we enjoyed a "real" (western) coffee in HCMC. Friendly staff, free wifi and located next to a lovely bakery. It was nice to "people watch" onto the street also.
This place is extremely expensive by HCMC standards, and you don't really get much for your extra money. The staff is rude and unprofessional, and the food and drinks are ok, but no better than what you can get for much better prices elsewhere.
I guess this review is being done in comparison to my frequent visits to Coffee Bean. Gloria Jean's did not impress me. Tables and chairs always seemed dirty and not picked up. The Americano was never the same. The place just had an awkward feel to it, if you know what I mean. Pastries were dry.
If was so hot the day we visited. A lovely escape from the heat. Air conditioning was fantastic. Staff very nice and the iced coffee great. I was really hot and the staff even turned on extra air-conditioning for me.
whilst this place has reasonable coffee I think they have forgotten this is vietnam prices are better else where .try Stellas in Bui Vien st great coffee
Nice to escape in here if you want to get "relatively" over-priced American coffee. You can also enjoy the wifi and air-conditioning to escape from the heat. Just your Western-style typical coffee shop.
Medium quality, high prices, staff rather unfriendly, sometimes very cold, sometimes too warm.
Upstairs is nicer (and quieter) than downstairs. The cushions are great.
I go to the GJ in Nguyen Thi Minh Khai. The major advantage here is that it's linked to Bread Talk which has great pastries.
I love how the staff walk up to you when you're sitting and tell you "your drink is ready" and then point at the place they just came from, where they left your drink for you to come pick up. Does that count as an A+ for effort or an F ?
The music is all the typical Western/Korean pop...
I wonder how a freshly brewed cup of latte can be luke warm? It's even more irritating when the staff don't acknowledge their mistake and refuse to change a new one.
