Verizon Looks to Snap Up Spectrum in Pennsylvania
Dec 14, 2011, 4:37 PM by Eric M. Zeman @phonescooper
Verizon Wireless today filed an application with the Federal Communications Commission seeking permission to purchase spectrum owned by South Canaan Cellular Communications (subsidiary of U.S. Cellular) in two Pennsylvania counties. Verizon is specifically looking at South Canaan's cellular Block B licenses KNKN800 and associated common carrier fixed point-to-point microwave licenses. Verizon wants the spectrum because it currently doesn't serve those markets and would like to enter the markets with 3G voice and data services, and eventually LTE 4G services. The transaction, if approved, would give Verizon a 59MHz block of spectrum below 1GHz. Once the deal is closed, Verizon Wireless would transition South Canaan's customers to its services over a period of nine to 12 months.

Understanding The New Education That Is Adapting To The New Paradigms of Our Time
Matías De Stefano is an Argentinian 22 year old, who could be described as an Indigo child. He has been allowed to activate the area of the brain where all the cosmic memory is registered. His purpose in life is to share his memories with the people, helping these to organize their own information. Also one of his essential missions is to help create a new education that can adapt to the new paradigms of the children of our time.
Matis talks about the mass influx of indigo children who have chosen to incarnate here at this particular time, as well as what to expect with 2012 and how he was able to recall his past lives, which included working with the Akashic Records.

I love both fighters, but I think Maidana KO's Rios since Rios seems to get hit in the head alot, and we're yet to see him get hit with a true KO puncher in the head to see how tough his chin really is. But this fight would be awesome tho.

Different types of treatment are available for patients with mesothelioma. Some treatments are standard (the currently used treatment), and some are being tested in clinical trials. (A treatment clinical trial is a research study meant to help improve current treatments or obtain information on new treatments for patients with cancer)
Your treatment options depend on the stage of cancer, your overall health and your preferences about treatment. In metastatic disease, the location and extent of the mesothelioma is also an important consideration.
You do not have to rush to make a decision, so consider the options carefully. Ask questions if you do not understand any aspect of treatment or the terms your doctors are using. Research shows that cancer survivors of all educational levels and backgrounds can have a hard time communicating with their health care team. One of the best ways to improve communication with your health care team is to prepare your visits so that you can best make use of the time.
A treatment plan is a way to deal with both the short and long term goals of managing your mesothelioma. There are several treatment options for mesothelioma, depending on the cancer stage and the patient's age and general health. Patients have time for second opinions and to talk through all of their options with their doctors and develop a treatment plan that best fits their needs.
Standard Treatments
The following procedures may be used for malignant mesothelioma:
Wide Local Excision
- Surgery to remove the cancer and some of the healthy tissue around it.
Pleurectomy and Decortication
- Surgery to remove part of the covering of the lungs and lining of the chest and part of the outside surface of the lungs.
Extrapleural Pneumonectomy
- Surgery to remove one whole lung and part of the lining of the chest, the diaphragm, and the lining of the sac around the heart.
- A surgical procedure that uses chemicals or drugs to make a scar in the space between the layers of the pleura. Fluid is first drained from the space using a catheter or chest tube and the chemical or drug is put into the space. The scarring stops the build-up of fluid in the pleural cavity.
- The goal of this surgery is to remove as much of the mesothelioma as possible. In general, less tissue is removed in this operation than in a Pleurectomy/Decortication procedure.
Even if the doctor removes all the cancer that can be seen at the time of the surgery, some patients may be given chemotherapy or radiation therapy after surgery to kill any cancer cells that are left.
Radiation Therapy
Radiation Therapy is a cancer treatment that uses high-energy x-rays or other types of radiation to kill cancer cells or keep them from growing. There are two types of radiation therapy. External radiation therapy uses a machine outside the body to send radiation toward the cancer. Internal radiation therapy uses a radioactive substance sealed in needles, seeds, wires, or catheters that are placed directly into or near the cancer. The way the radiation therapy is given depends on the type and stage of the cancer being treated.
Chemotherapy is a cancer treatment that uses drugs to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. When chemotherapy is taken by mouth or injected into a vein or muscle, the drugs enter the bloodstream and can reach cancer cells throughout the body (systemic chemotherapy). The way the chemotherapy is given depends on the type and stage of the cancer being treated.
Social networking and online support groups are important tools. Reaching out to others who have or have had similar experiences can provide you with valuable insights. Check out Cancer Support Community's

The pain experience of elderly hospice patients with cancer
Purpose/objectives. A grounded theory design was used to identify, describe, and generate a theoretical analysis of the pain experience of elderly hospice patients with cancer. ^ Sample. Eleven participants over the age of 65, receiving services from a for-profit hospice were interviewed in their homes. ^ Methods. Broad unstructured face to face audio-taped interviews were transcribed verbatim and analyzed using constant-comparative method of analysis. ^ Findings. Pain was described as a hierarchy of chronic, acute, and psychological pain with psychological pain as the worst. Suffering was the basic social problem of pain. Participants dealt with suffering by the basic social process of enduring. Enduring had two sub-processes, maintaining hope and adjusting. Trusting in a higher being and finding meaning were mechanisms of maintaining hope. Mechanisms of adjusting were dealing with uncertainty, accepting, and minimizing pain. ^ Implications for nursing practice. Nurses need to recognize and value the hard work of enduring to deal with suffering. Assisting elderly hospice patients with cancer to address the sub-processes of enduring and their mechanisms can foster enduring. ^

Cortinas, M.N. and Crous, P.W. and Wingfield, B.D. and Wingfield, M.J. (2006) Multi-gene phylogenies and phenotypic characters distinguish two species within the Colletogloeopsis zuluensis complex associated with Eucalyptus stem cankers. Studies in Mycology, 55, 133-146. Open Access uitgave. Available: http://www.studiesinmycology.org/cgi/content/abstract/55/1/133.
PDF 2205Kb |
Colletogloeopsis zuluensis, previously known as Coniothyrium zuluense, causes a serious stem canker disease on Eucalyptus spp. grown as non-natives in many tropical and sub-tropical countries. This stem canker disease was first reported from South Africa and it has subsequently been found on various species and hybrids of Eucalyptus in other African countries as well as in countries of South America and South-East Asia. In previous studies, phylogenetic analyses based on DNA sequence data of the ITS region suggested that all material of C. zuluensis was monophyletic. However, the occurrence of the fungus in a greater number of countries, and analyses of DNA sequences with additional isolates has challenged the notion that a single species is involved with Coniothyrium canker. The aim of this study was to consider the phylogenetic relationships amongst C. zuluensis isolates from all available locations and to support these analyses with phenotypic and morphological comparisons. Individual and combined phylogenies were constructed using DNA sequences from the ITS region, exons 3 through 6 of the ß-tubulin gene, the intron of the translation elongation factor 1-{alpha} gene, and a partial sequence of the mitochondrial ATPase 6 gene. Both phylogenetic data and morphological characteristics showed clearly that isolates of C. zuluensis represent at least two taxa. One of these is C. zuluensis as it was originally described from South Africa, and we provide an epitype for it. The second species occurs in Argentina and Uruguay, and is newly described as C. gauchensis. Both fungi are serious pathogens resulting in identical symptoms.

UltimateDisney.com | DVD Reviews Index | Upcoming DVDs | Recent DVDs | Disney Channel TV Series on DVD | Disney's Christmas Films
A Very Playhouse Disney Holiday DVD Review With only half as many shows and less than half the running time, A Very Playhouse Disney Holiday is far less satisfying as a DVD than its equivalent for slightly older viewers. Anyone whose notion of "Playhouse Disney" is shaped by the live stage show at Disney's California Adventure may be disappointed by the paltry offerings and noteworthy no-shows here. Despite having reviewed some of the handful of Playhouse Disney DVDs the studio has released in 2005, that class basically includes me, because it is probably the one area of Disney's visual entertainment empire that I know least about.
Needless to say, the DVD contains no sign of the biggest attraction (literally and figuratively) of the Anaheim park's half-hour of fun; Bear, the seven-foot star of the Jim Henson Company's "Bear in the Big Blue House" and currently-produced "Breakfast with Bear" hour block, is not here. Nor are Stanley or those vibrantly-adorned Wiggles (who have shown up on DVD thirty times, but never from Disney). We do, however, get JoJo, the likable young clown whose Circus of learning adventures has entertained plenty since it first appeared two falls ago. In addition, there is a special half-hour episode from younger series "Higglytown Heroes" and two installments of the mini-show "Shanna's Show." Young voices, a lack of irony, and simple plots all distinguish each of these shows as fare for young children. But, while some will lose their critical edge when faced with these guidelines, I think many can still find a wide range of quality among programming created for young children.
For this disc to make good on its promise of one hour of preschooler delight (and the "feature" itself only clocks in at under 55 minutes, including credits), your little one needs to be a fan of not just "JoJo's Circus", but also the other two less renowned series. Otherwise, you're getting just the 24-minute Christmas episode "A Circus Town Christmas", which would hardly seem to justify the $19.99 list price, the same tag applied to the two twice-as-long "JoJo's" DVD compilations released last spring. If the moral values and occasional cleverness of "Higglytown Heroes" have the approval of you and your spawn, then this pairing of half-hour Christmas specials could conceivably become an annual tradition for your family for the few years until all have grown out of it. That won't make the very brief "Shanna's Show" episodes less tedious on return visits, but if the 3¼ minutes are too much to bear, there is always the "Skip" button.
Let's take a look at just what exactly is on the disc:
JoJo's Circus - "A Circus Town Christmas" (24:00) (Originally aired December 7, 2003)
Youngsters' favorite six-year-old clown JoJo (voiced by Madeleine Martin) is enjoying a traditional Christmas with her parents and pet lion Goliath (Robert Smith): Like the handful of other episodes I've seen of this colorful stop-motion series, this Christmas episode (twice the normal length) imparts lessons in a straightforward but spunky manner. The catchy songs, completely secular treatment of Christmas, and avoidance of talking down to viewers amounts to pretty much what's expected of the show, which is now in its third season. While it's not spectacular enough to make me jump and emit silly noises (even though that's exactly the type of activity that JoJo encourages viewers to engage in from time-to-time), it garners a mild recommendation and is the best thing on the DVD.
Shanna's Show - "Shanna Mail Carrier" (3:15) (Originally aired November 1, 2004)
Disney must be banking on the Playhouse Disney viewer's illiteracy, because revealing the episode title (as I have done above, after deciding that none of the target audience is reading this review themselves) robs this mini-show any value that it has. You see, this entire short involves you the viewer guessing what occupation the title character is pretending to have. From the two segments included on this disc, I have deduced this much: Shanna is a little girl who only speaks in song and every 3 minute, 15 second episode of her show involves her and her small circle of friends giving you visual and aural clues to guess what job she may be pretending to hold, before revealing the answer that most intelligible humans should see coming long in advance. Considerably more childish than the other two programs on the disc, "Shanna's Show" is a little out of place here, though not without some charm. For one thing, neither this nor the second short have positively anything to do with Christmas or any other holidays. For another, even the compelling nature of the show's entirely-sung soundtrack doesn't give this guessing game much replay value once you've seen it and gotten your answer.
Higglytown Heroes - "Twinkle's Wish" (23:58) (Originally aired December 12, 2004)
It's Christmastime in Higglytown in this special episode, which like "JoJo's", is twice as long as a normal installment. Twinkle's (voiced by Liliana Mumy) skill and appreciation of gift-wrapping has her dreaming of being one of Santa's helpers. Meanwhile, in his first day at the North Pole, an elf named Pix (guest star Sean Astin) is disappointed to find himself relegated to wrapping gifts instead of doing something more important. Furthermore, Santa (Astin's father John, of the original Freaky Friday and "The Addams Family") won't give Pix a bell for the end of his hat until he earns it. Pix and Twinkle cross paths, and Twinkle winds up at the North Pole while Pix is stuck in Higglytown with Blitzen the reindeer. The thrill of helping Santa prepare for Christmas soon wears off as Twinkle misses her family, while Pix longs to earn his bell.
"Higglytown Heroes" boasts some unusual visuals. This town is inhabited by computer-animated Matrioshka-like characters whose arms often disappear into their round bases. The animation is fairly crude, even with the extra ambition evident in this Christmas special's background locations. For the most part, it's how I imagine Pixar's films might appear if the lighting and shading stages were abandoned; everything looks artificial and you never suspect these stylized figures are living beings. Surprisingly, despite imagery and sensibilities that screams low-budget and low-key, the show has attracted some noteworthy guest voices such as the Astins here. This episode (which is oddly and widely referred to as "Twinkle's Star" on the Internet) is not terrible, but it lacks originality and substance. Were it dragged out to feature-length, it'd probably play like In Search of Santa, the weak CGI holiday flick Miramax released direct-to-video last year. As it is, it's not entirely devoid of wit and by default, it's the second best thing on the disc, but it definitely does not deserve entry into the pantheon of television's top-notch Christmas specials.
Shanna's Show - "Shanna Ballerina" (3:15) (Originally aired November 13, 2004)
Again, this short installment features six-year-old Shanna ("it rhymes with banana"), her younger brother Shane, Dinah the dinosaur, Ducky, and Tiger engaging in a bit of guess-what-Shanna-is. Any child who can read the back of the keepcase, the menu, the insert, or this review can answer that question without viewing, while the rest should be able to guess long before the three clues have been dispensed. Though perfect as an in-between-program bumper, the series doesn't really work so great in this context. An apt inclusion on a "Holiday" DVD? No. Worth watching more than once? Not likely. A better route would have been to include the two "Shanna's" shorts (plus a hearty handful more) as bonus features with a "Play All" option but no answers in the listings. That's what I would have done had I been mastering the disc and then I'd be approving their presence right now.
VIDEO and AUDIO
All of the content on the disc is presented in 1.33:1 fullscreen as it appeared when broadcast. The relatively clean and simple animation, paired with a fairly light slate, adds up to no problems whatsoever in the picture quality department. The visuals of "JoJo's Circus" and "Higglytown Heroes" are marked by bright colors (primarily reds, greens, and yellows) and no bleeding or inconsistencies occur. Many a creature will be stirring and the house a-rockin' with the DTS-ES and DD-EX tracks boasted by this disc. Yeah, I too know that that's not really funny. Anyway, Disney must subscribe to the widely-held belief that little kids typically don't demand DTS or even a 5.1 soundtrack. The Dolby Surround presentation serves its purpose just fine, nonetheless. All vocals are crisp and perfectly understandable. Though the rear channel is used sparingly for music and bells and such, it can be effective, when need be. Music is readily featured in all three shows, and fortunately, the track offers much more zest and oomph than...an old dusty ham radio.
There are two bonus features on the DVD, one listed on the menu and one hidden. The advertised one is a game called "Playhouse Present Search." There are five presents under a tree, but their gift tags have blown off! After each present is opened to reveal three presents (i.e. extremely helpful hints), you must pick from the four characters offered who the box is meant for. You won't need to know about personalities of Playhouse Disney shows which aren't featured on the disc. It's a pretty fun game, and one which can be played more than once, since the choices and gifts vary. After correctly matching four characters and presents, the fifth is yours to open - revealing a special bonus for you, a randomly-selected one of the two extras that appear in the hidden section discussed next.
Though Easter Eggs are something of a rarity on Disney DVDs, especially for preschool discs, this one actually serves up a section with two minimal but welcome little bonuses. Perceptive viewers will notice a little gift imprint among the snowy ground of the Bonus Features menu, (especially if the keepcase's enclosed insert has already tipped them off to a hidden treat). Alternatively, if you didn't notice it, successful completion of the Playhouse Present Search game leads to one of the two and reveals how to access them anytime you want to without playing the game. Enough babbling, what are the hidden bonuses? They are sing-alongs of two musical scenes from the featured specials. From the "JoJo's Circus" episode, "It Wouldn't Be Christmas" (1:34) offers a variation on "The Twelve Days of Christmas" which explains the Circus Town way of decorating for the holidays. From "Higglytown Heroes", "Getting Ready for Christmas Day" (1:45) enables Twinkle and friends to imagine the thrill of being Santa's gift-wrapping helpers.
MENUS, PACKAGING, and DESIGN
Like many of Disney's preschool-friendly DVDs (a class which already includes direct-to-video sequels and anything with Winnie the Pooh and is verily growing to cover Valiant and more), this disc is equipped with "Disney's FastPlay." While I could never find anything particularly special or worth patenting about this playback mode (which essentially reduces the DVD experience to VHS by removing the need for interactivity), letting it run here illustrates its complete uselessness. Those previews (for those who care and for trailer-search purposes) promote Disney Princess: A Christmas of Enchantment, Pooh's Grand Adventure: The Search for Christopher Robin, February 2006's Disney Princess DVD wave, and the delayed next batch of Pooh Disney Learning Adventures. The post-feature previews (also accessible from the Sneak Peeks menu's second page) tout Little Einsteins: Our Inside the white keepcase, there's a double-sided insert with (slightly-off) scene selections and an extras overview that alerts you to the presence of a hidden bonus. A fold-open coupon booklet presents you with some $3 coupons for Little Einsteins: Our Though the menu only allows access to four different (the starts of the four episodes), there are actually seven chapter stops, including the brief 7-second A Very Playhouse Disney Holiday title logo. Selecting any individual episode from the Episode Selection menu actually just takes you to that part of the whole feature. At its conclusion, the feature continues playing.
Alongside Disney Channel Holiday, the kiddie counterpart A Very Playhouse Disney Holiday offers less than it should, even if its younger target audience has shorter attention spans. The half-hour Christmas specials of "JoJo's Circus" and "Higglytown Heroes" are both diverting and offer strong lessons, but are not likely to dazzle beyond the preschool sect. The two short "Shanna's Show" episodes have even less appeal for growing boys and girls, and don't make for a great inclusion based on their limited replay value and lack of holiday theme. The bonus game and sing-alongs provide the disc with a little bit of additional value, but still not enough to justify the list price. (Note, that as of 2006, the disc's price tag was sensibly reduced by a reasonable $5.)
Parents who are certain their children like both of the primary series probably know they already want to pick this up for some modest family fun around the holidays. Less acquainted viewers can get by passing on this or waiting for post-holiday discounts. Though underwhelming in its design, the disc would make for a fine bargain bin buy for little ones.

Reviewed October 26, 2005.
Next week, with Christmas steadily approaching, Disney's video branch Buena Vista Home Entertainment will release two holiday-themed DVDs from the Disney Channel's original programming.
For big kids and teens, there is Disney Channel Holiday with episodes of comedy series like "Lizzie McGuire", "That's So Raven", and "Kim Possible." For people slightly older who have young kids of their own, there is A Very Playhouse Disney Holiday, which contains episodes from three shows that are a part of the cable network's preschool-oriented block which airs from 6 AM to 2 PM on weekdays, and 6 to 10:30 AM on weekends.
singing songs, decorating the tree with hot dogs and banana peels, and so on. Tragedy strikes when the family's long-treasured Santa Clown tree-topper breaks. JoJo plans to make things right on her shopping trip to the Circus Town Perfect Present Place (which shows up only one day of the year), but she uses her last popcorn kernel (the place's currency of choice - don't ask) to buy a basket for a stranded bird that Goliath finds instead. JoJo struggles with the decision she made and worries her parents will be disappointed in her.
There is some minor moiré effect detected in JoJo's sweater in some scenes; but this is probably how it looked on TV. The color palette of "Shanna's Show" is a little more subdued, but it too appears without incident, remaining appropriately sharp (with minor blurring that may be inherent to the animation) and pristine. To sum up, the shows are like they appear on the Disney Channel, only slightly better and free from the degradation that would mark your home-made cassette recordings.
What it's supposed to do is play previews (read "ads"), the feature, and bonus features. What it actually does is play previews, the feature, and more previews, before taking you to the Menu to use the remote after all. Preschool DVDs allow Disney to get around FCC advertising regulations and the Disney Channel's semi-"ad-free nature, but should they really give the studio a free license to subject tiny viewers to more ads than someone who knows how to press the "Menu" button? I don't think so. Boo, Disney!

Pravastatin is a member of the HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor family of drugs, also called "statins," such as lovastatin and simvastatin . Pravastatin blocks a key step in the body's production of cholesterol and is used to lower cholesterol levels in people with high cholesterol .
One of the possible side effects of pravastatin is liver toxicity. Although no clinical studies substantiate its use with pravastatin, a milk thistle extract standardized to 70–80% silymarin may reduce the potential liver toxicity of pravastatin. The suggested use is 200 mg of the extract three times daily.
In a preliminary trial, taking an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor ("statin") for about three years significantly lowered triglyceride levels and raised levels of HDL ("good") cholesterol in people with high cholesterol who had also been supplementing with either 900 mg or 1,800 mg of EPA for three months.3 The authors of the study concluded that the combination of the statin and EPA may prevent coronary heart disease better than the drug alone. Since drugs in the statin family have similar mechanisms of action, people taking any statin drug may benefit from fish oil.
A synthetic molecule related to beta-sitosterol , sitostanol, is available in a special margarine and has been shown to lower cholesterol levels. In one study, supplementing with 1.8 grams of sitostanol per day for six weeks enhanced the cholesterol-lowering effect of various statin drugs.5
A study of 37 people with high cholesterol treated with diet and HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors found serum vitamin A levels increased over two years of therapy.7 It remains unclear whether this moderate increase suggests that people taking lovastatin have a particular need to restrict vitamin A supplementation.
Niacin is a vitamin used to lower cholesterol. Sixteen people with diabetes and high cholesterol were given pravastatin plus niacin to lower cholesterol.8 Niacin was added over a two week period, to a maximum amount of 500 mg three times per day. The combination of pravastatin plus niacin was continued for four weeks. Compared with pravastatin, niacin plus pravastatin resulted in significantly reduced cholesterol levels. Others have also shown that the combination of pravastatin and niacin is more effective in lowering cholesterol levels than is pravastatin alone.9 However, large amounts of niacin taken with pravastatin might cause serious muscle disorders (myopathy or rhabdomyolysis).10 Individuals taking pravastatin should consult a doctor before taking niacin.
In double-blind trials, treatment with pravastatin and other HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors has resulted in depleted blood levels of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10).11 , 12 Supplementation with 90–100 mg CoQ10 per day has been shown to prevent reductions in blood levels of CoQ10 due to simvastatin , another drug in the same category as pravastatin.13 , 14 In a preliminary study, supplementation with 100 mg of CoQ10 per day reduced the severity of muscle pain by 40% in people with muscle pain caused by a statin drug.15

"There is a balancing act between recreation and preservation. This is a traditional discussion that goes back to Yellowstone [National Park]," Sullivan said.
Paving a 6.5 mile trail, along with a 2-mile paved loop around one of the park lakes, is not much paving in a park this large, and by comparison, the master plan has 24.5 miles of unpaved trails, Sullivan said. The paved trails would provide four-season recreation.
A paved trail at Lebanon Hills would make it a location where bikers could park, use restrooms and connect with the county's 200 miles of paved greenway trails, Sullivan said.
Although Lebanon Hills is a regional park and not a park preserve, the county is planning to leave much of it as open space to be sensitive to hikers who may want to be out of view of the paved trail activity, Sullivan said.
"The unfortunate thing is that the park can't be everything to everyone," Sullivan said. "There are choices that have to be made. We are trying to do it in a transparent way."
Jenkins concedes that a paved trail would bring more people to the park. But she thinks the county could get similar results by advertising the park's quiet open space.
"I feel like the park is at a fork in the road where they can go the route of developing the park or they can conserve it," Jenkins said.

Wouldn't want to sell me one or the other at a fair price, would you?
Got the same on my rev G with firmware 30.18.5. I still haven't taken my I out of the plastic...
Thanks, birdy. As Fiosman said, same as the F (and the E as well).
That 2nd antenna isn't just sitting there to look pretty. The rev I is most likely a dual band N router. The big question is whether its single or dual radio. If single, then only one frequency available (2.4 or 5GHz). If dual radio then 2 SSID's available with one being 2.4GHz channel and other being 5GHz channel.
The rev. F is draft 802.11n only.
I received this router (I) last night with my upgrade to the triple play. Shipped firmware 40.19.22I am in upper Westchester County, NY.Is there a user guide available for this router? Could not find anything via Google.
So if the only difference between these two companies is that one allows Internet equipment exchanges and the other company does not then one company is providing less customer service and is therefore being less competitive.
Being a former TWC customer I kind of expect that retail stores do exchanges for things other than STBs. I had the pleasure of returning their cable modems more than once.But TWC definitely treated cable modems as monthly rentals like their STBs.Verizon would be providing less competitive customer service if it did not allow their customers to exchange their routers - we pay them a small fortune every month.
The Verizon stores sells and accepts returns for DSL products as well.While this does not necessarily mean that they can do exchanges for DSL products.If rev I is the new general release FiOS router then I think alot of us are very interested in upgrading to the gigabit switching and newer wireless N features. Especially if it is free.So can anybody confirm (or deny) doing a FiOS router exchange at a Verizon store?

PM asks US to force Pak abjure terrorism
Washington, February 28 Making it clear that India wanted Pakistan to be a prosperous and moderate Islamic state which is in the interest of New Delhi and the world, the Prime Minister said he would like to work for a relationship with Islamabad that is on the line of the USA-Canada ties. In an interview to Charlie Rose aired on the Public Broadcast System in the USA, he replied in negative when asked if the USAs relationship with Pakistan was an issue for India. I sincerely hope that whatever influence the United States has with Pakistan, it will convey to Pakistan that using terrorism as an instrument of state policy has no place in the world, the Prime Minister remarked. He said if only Pakistan lives up to the commitment it had given to the former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee that its territory will not be used for terrorist activity against India, the sky is the limit for cooperation between the two countries. His remarks came as Bush prepared to travel to India and Pakistan. He will be reaching New Delhi tomorrow on a three-day visit to India and flying to Pakistan on Saturday. During the interview, the Prime Minister replied to questions relating to Indo-USA ties, India's ties with China and the countrys stand on Irans controversial nuclear
programme. PTI |
JKLF criticises Kashmiri leaders
London, February 28 "We fail to understand what Kashmiri leaders have in mind. On one hand they demand they want to be involved in the peace process and on the other hand when opportunity comes their way, they refuse to sit down," Dr Shabir Choudhry, JKLF leader said here last night. "We strongly support expansion of the dialogue process and leaders of different Kashmiri parties be made part of the process. In view of this, we support Indian Prime Minister's efforts to invite different Kashmiri leaders for discussion; and moreover his effort to hold a round table conference on the issue of Kashmir," he said. Choudhry said Pakistan must stop exploitation and uprooting the people of Jammu and Kashmir. "Stop changing the demography of the area by violating State Subject notification and settling people from Pakistan in to Gilgit and Baltistan," he said. Regarding the controversial Basha Dam, Choudhry wondered why the dam was not built "inside Pakistan." Other JKLF office bearers, Abbas Butt, Sarwar Hussain and Asim Mirza were also present at the press conference.
80,000 troops fighting Al-Qaida: Musharraf
Washington, February 28 Amid growing doubts about his and the armys role in the hunt for Osama, Musharraf was asked by US TV network ABC yesterday if Pakistan was going after the Al-Qaida chief aggressively enough. We are not using the army only to track down Osama. I mean, this kind of a misperception should be removed. We are using the army against Al-Qaida and Taliban... Now in the process, if you get word on him, very good. But we are not certainly focusing entirely only on tracking Osama bin Laden and (his deputy) Ayman al- Zawahri, he told the channel. He said 80,000 troops were fighting Al-Qaida and Taliban in Pakistans mountainous border with Afghanistan but added it was unknown whether Osama was in Pakistan. About a list containing information on key Taliban figures handed over by Afghan President Hamid Karzai during his recent Pakistan visit, Musharraf said: ...President Karzai gives me a list of numbers, ridiculous kind of numbers that they are here and they are talking and we find that two-third is a waste of time. Two-thirds of them are dead numbers and Im quoting this with full authority...Now the other one-third is, we are trying to track down these numbers, he said. Asked about terrorist training camps in Pakistan, Musharraf conceded, Lets be very clear. Certainly there are people here but added: I have been telling Karzai and the United states, Let us fence the border and let us mine it.
Terror threat rose after Iraq war: global poll
London, February 28 An average of 60 per cent in 33 nations agreed that the March 2003 invasion had increased the likelihood of terrorist attacks, with just 12 per cent believing the opposite. A further 15 per cent thought it had no effect. The survey of 41,856 people by Canadian pollsters GlobeScan and the US Program on International Policy Attitudes (PIPA) also claimed there was overall support in 20 countries for US forces to withdraw in the next few months. Greatest criticism of the move came from Argentina (74 per cent), with strong opposition from Spain (65 per cent) and Germany (61 per cent).
Taliban terror crippling Afghan schools
Ghulam Rasul was leaving school when two gunmen walked in and opened fire. The 17-year-old died instantly. As other students and teachers fled in terror the shooting continued. Two more persons were hit.
The attack at Kartilaya High School in Lashkar Gar was just one in a series which is crippling Afghanistan's education system. At least 165 schools and colleges have been burnt down or forced to close so far by a resurgent Taliban and their Islamist allies. Five years after the end of the Afghan war and Tony Blair's famous pledge that "this time we will not walk away", it seems the Taliban and Al Qaida are back with a vengeance, and one of their main targets is the country's education system. The campaign is intended, say educationalists and human rights groups, to terrorise families into keeping children uneducated, unemployable, and a recruitment pool for the Islamists. Teachers are the main targets. Some have been beheaded, others shot in front of their classes. One was killed while attending his father's funeral. They have declared that only madarsaas (Muslim religious schools) meeting their approval will be allowed to operate. The attack at Kartilaya High, which has 4,200 pupils, about half of them girls, was in the centre of Lashkar Gar, the provincial capital of Helmand, where a massive British force is now being deployed. The school is 15 minutes drive from an American base, now being taken over by the British, and just 500 metres from an Afghan police post. Police did not turn up for half an hour after the shooting. The Americans failed to turn up at all. The killings of teachers are normally preceded by a warning "night letter" from the Islamists ordering schools to be shut down. Retribution is taken if there is a failure to comply.

Bird flu could last 5 years in UK: expert
London, February 28 ''I would anticipate that avian flu will arrive at some point in the UK,'' Professor David King said. ''We also have to anticipate that it will be here for five years plus. We are talking about the possibility of this disease being endemic here in the UK,'' he said. The bird flu virus has spread from Asia to Africa and Europe and caused the death of millions of birds and more than 90 people. It reached France earlier this month amid criticism that the British government had not done more to tackle the threat and demands for poultry either to be kept indoors or vaccinated. Britain's farm minister Margaret Beckett said yesterday the country was well prepared to react swiftly to any outbreak of bird flu. Britain has questioned the benefits of vaccination and Beckett reiterated fears that vaccines might mask rather than eradicate the disease, although she said the government's policy was under review.

Indian origin woman oldest to contest SA polls
Durban, February 28 Lutchmyamma Naidoo is contesting the elections for the Independent Democrats (ID), a party headed by the fiery politician Patricia De Lille of Cape Town. Naidoo, who has three children and 18 grand-children, will be standing for a seat in the country town of KwaDukuza, about 75 km north here. A veteran local community worker, Naidoo is confident of winning ."I am confident because I am fighting for the people who live in low-cost housing. I want them to get better service delivery and this gives me enough strength to overcome the age factor," said Naidoo, popularly known as Botoo" because of the big red dot she wears on her forehead. "People get surprised when I say I am contesting the elections. But I tell them they need someone who will fight for them and not someone who will use the position to further their own nests," she

Cussoy, Ellen Roosye Mooce (2003) The Use of metaphor, metonymy and analogy in the news report of Surabaya's new mayor, Bambang D.H, in Jawa Pos, from june to July 2002. Bachelor thesis, Petra Christian University.
Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
This study is about politics register. The language of politics often occurs in the form of implicative so that any political issues are delivered implicitly rather than explicitly. Through the study, the writer is curious about how metaphor, metonymy and analogy are used as implicature in the news report of political issues. Since implicature is involved, the writer also intends to know how do metaphor, metonymy and analogy violate the maxims. Later on, through the findings, the writer decides which is the most commonly used among metaphor, metonymy and analogy and the most commonly violated one among those maxims because of the use of metaphor, metonymy and analogy. The writer analyses the study based on sociolinguistics and pragmatics fields. The political topic, chosen by the writer is about the issue of Surabaya?s new mayor, Bambang D.H, reported in Jawa Pos, June-July 2002. This study is supported by sociolinguistics theories on language variation about register, by Janet Holmes and Peter Trud gill. Since the register itself is focused on politics register, the writer also uses Adrian Beard theory on language of politics, which mentioned three characteristics of politics register, the use of metaphor, metonymy and analogy. The study uses descriptive approach as the study is designed to obtain information concerning the politic register. Finally, the writer finds out that metaphor, metonymy and analogy are used in the news report to convey the intended meaning behind the literal meaning of the words, as the comparison. The mostly used one is metaphor. Besides, the use of them has caused maxim violations that mean the implicature is being used. The mostly violated one is maxim of manner.

Since I have finally got the running bug back, I have gone all out to enter a half marathon - the windsor half marathon on 29th Sepetmber 2011.
Is anyone else running it this year? Would it be advisable to run along part if not all of the route at some stage before the race?
Thanks Lisa - felt good when i crossed the finish line - albeit went for the "hollywood" finish i.e. sprinting the last 50 metres trying to catch the guy in front of me .
Actually, strangely, got a real boost when I saw the 900 metres to go marker, and managed to up my pace in the last km

Customer Reviews
Amazing Mascara
I only discovered this product a few weeks ago, I wish I had found it sooner!! I have fairly fine lashes that aren't very long so I'm always looking for a mascara that lengthens and adds volume. I admit that I was skeptical before trying Lash Fibre but I am skeptical no more!! This is now my HG mascara! It really does make a huge difference compared to any other product I've used. The thing I like most about this mascara is that it really does add volume and length WITHOUT clumping!!! It is removed easily at the end of the day with standard eye make up remover. Thanks Modelco for making such a fabulous product :-)
I had read many reviews of Fibre Lash Brush on False Lashes and so I tried it from a tester recently in a store. I was instantly sold and have been using ever since. Its a cult product and I cannot live without my ModelCo Fibre Lash ! This is an absolutely awesome product, so huge Thank you to ModelCo !!
Really does extend eyelashes
I have short straight asian eyelashes. This being the case I can't even get an eyelash curler near my lashes due to them being so SHORT!
I've been a user of this product for more than a year.
I was fortunate that the shop assistant opened the package to show me the lash fibres as that was the selling point.
You apply the mascara, then the white fibres (like very thin cotton wool) which attaches to the first coat of mascara. Then you reapply the mascara on top of the fibres. They don't come off, but provide the leverage for the mascara to coat them black and make your eyelashes physically longer! I repeat 2 or 3 times for extra length.
The fibres last for ages, along with the mascara so you don't have to worry about running out of one before the other. Even so I have used a different mascara brand with the Modelco fibres and it's still worked.
To take off, it does require a bit of gentle concentration on the eye lashes. I use an oil based eye makeup remover, hold the soaked cotton pad on the lashes (with eyes closed) then drag down to get them off. They are resilient and stay on in bed all night if you cant be bothered and don't leave the black marks or falseys in bed like eyelash extensions or general mascara.
Highly Recommend!!!
(from someone very selective with makeup, only wears it on weekends and who has never been compelled to write a review before!)
Love this mascara
I got this when it first came out and i love it when i use it I have so many people asking me if i have false eyelashes on . Even my hair dressers were shocked when i was having my hair done and asked if i had bought their lash lenghings on. And i said no its Model co and one said its better than ours. I love it so much. But its a shame that now its more with the shipping being so high...But at $48 its a great product.
Who wouldn't want this mascara!
I'm the kind of person who does'nt leave the house without at least mascara on, so this means I'm always on a never ending search for the best and most amazing mascara out there. Since most mascara's only do about half of what they actually say they are going to do I'm usually left very disappointed. Unfortunately my lashes are pretty light compared to the rest of my hair thus my needing for a freaking awesome mascara and with Fibra Lash I am in complete awe. Not only does it give longer lashes but it also plumps them up as well. Really Fibre Lash is everything it says it is and so much more. I also have sensitive eyes so the fact that this is made with the best ingredients is just a the cherry on top. I dont think I could live ( or at least ever leave my house) without it!
Wow! Just WOW!
No wonder this product is so acclaimed! I tried instead of my usual lashxtend this morning. It was quick and easy to apply and the result is brilliant. When recoated with extension mascara, the fibres became 'at one' with my lashes. I like to lash it up every now and then so it's the perfect alternative to falsies that don't stay or extensions that I couldn't be bothered with.
Stays in for days until I wash them off

[edit] History
Orochi is an immensely powerful being that folded space and time, combining the Three Kingdoms era of China with the Sengoku period of Japan, in order to provide himself with a challenge.
[edit] Background
Obsessed with the entropic decay of the universe, Orochi seeks someone worthy of his strength. Perhaps this is one big cosmic death wish, but Orochi has shattered the space-time continuum just to find someone to best him. To Orochi, his existence is confirmed in the nonexistence of others.
It appeared he got what he wanted as at the end of Warriors Orochi, he was defeated by the combined efforts of the rag-tag assembly of Dynasty and Samurai warriors.
