Contents : Sildenafil Citrate-50mg Soft Chewable tabs)
Packing : 4
Correct Dose for use of Mouth Dispersible Tablets under the tongue: When tablets are swallowed orally, most of the active ingredient is lost in the digestion process. Mouth Dispersible Tablets are admistered by holding them under the tongue till they dissolve. There is a sublingual pathway under the tongue that takes the active ingredient directly into the blood stream. Here is the no wastage of the active ingredient. So if you were normally taking a 50mg dose by swallowing, it may be advisable to split your 50mg Dispersible Tablet into two and use one half (25mg) under your tongue. This 25mg dose should work equally well for you. It is worth trying it out. Mouth Dispersible Tablets can also be adminstered by swallowing and will work like normal 50mg Tablets. What is Penegra Xpress? Penegra Xpress (Soft tabs) is the brand name for Sildenafil Citrate. It's a medicine that helps men with erectile dysfunction (ED) have sexual intercourse again. What is Penegra? Penegra is the brand name for Sildenafil Citrate. It's a medicine that helps men with erectile dysfunction (ED) have sexual intercourse again. What is erectile dysfunction? Erectile dysfunction is the inability of the penis to become rigid, or stay rigid long enough to complete the sexual act. How does Penegra work? Penegra dilates the arteries in the penis and thus allows filling of blood into sinusoids (small spaces in the penis). As the penis hardens, the veins are compressed restricting the blood flow out of the penis. This filling of blood into the penile space causes an erection. How well does Penegra work? Four out of five men who take Penegra show an improvment with erections, regardless of age and how long they have had ED. How should I take Penegra? Take one tablet one hour before you plan to have sex. Don't take more than one tablet in 24 hours. The medicine comes in tablets of 25mg, 50mg, and 100mg. Most patients can start with 50mg. Even if you take Penegra, you still need physical and mental stimulation and desire to have an erection. If your first dose of Penegra does not help, Call your doctor. Your doctor may want to change your tablet strength. What are the side effects of Penegra? Penegra has some common side effects. Headache Flushing (face and upper body turning red and warm) Stomach upset Running nose Vision changes (Things look blue) Headache is the most common side effect. Vision change are least common. Talk to your doctor if you have any side effects that bothers you. Can everyone use Penegra? You should not use Penegra xpress- soft tab if you take any of these forms of nitrates: Isosorbide Mononitrate (brand names: Monotrate, Vasotrate, Ismo, Imdur, Angicor) Isosorbide dinitrate (brand names: Sorbitrate, Isordil) Sublingual nitroglycerin tablets or spray (Angised, Angispan, GTN spray) Transdermal nitroglycerin patches or ointments (brand names: Top nitro, Nitroderm TTS, Myovin) Please Note: the above is not a comprehensive list and mentions only some commonly used brands. If you are not sure of the medicine you are taking, you should consult your doctor. Can I take Penegra after food? Yes, but high fat meals should be avoided before taking Penegra xpress to have better response. Can I take Penegra Xpress with alcohol? The consumption of alcoholic beverages can temporarily impair the ability to get and keep a sustained erection. To achieve maximum results while using Penegra, you should not drink large amounts of alcohol before taking the medication. Will Penegra xpress work as soon as I take it? For the best results, take Penegra about one hour before engaging in sexual activity. Penegra is designed to last between 30 minutes and four hours for most patients. Ultimatley, Penegra can help you get an erection and maintain that erection if you are sexually aroused.

The World Bank and the IMF (the International Monetary Fund) were set up during the end of the Second World War to rebuild the economies of Europe. However, in order for the world bank and the IMF to implement their policies, they (the world bank and the IMF) began offering loans to poor countries but only if the poor countries privatized their economies and allowed western corporations free access to their raw materials and markets. That was a poverty trap and many poor countries realized it when it was too late. We were already in chains.
That was the beginning of much of the problems we face today in Africa. Now we are in a vicious cycle of poverty and there seems to be no way out. The western corporations flourish while the poor continue to die in poverty.
The more we fight and kill ourselves, the more profit (money) they make so even as we work very hard to achieve peace and understanding, there are many up there in the top working extremely hard to make sure there are wars and even more wars so they can profit from the deaths of untold number of people. This is the situation in Africa today and that is why every now and then you hear conflicts, political violence and rumors of war all across the continent.
Let me begin with a clear example to explain what I am trying to say. Many of you have heard about Darfur and the deaths of untold number of people (some say about 500,000 although the true figure is far bigger than that). However, not so many people know the Sudan conflict was somehow "a proxy war".
Almost all the foreign aid Africa receives end up in private bank accounts in foreign lands. In Africa, foreign aid fuels corruption, starts conflicts, and pays to kill innocent people especially the poor and the weak. This is how foreign aid destroys Africa. Foreign aid turns African governments into monsters and causes them to destroy the very own people they were supposed to be protecting. Many African leaders stay in power for decades why because they receive free aid money to pay the military and private killing machines to enable them remain in power forever.
Besides turning governments into monsters, foreign aid brings in a lot of other negative incentives. External people see Africa as even poorer why because they "feed" Africa in the form of aid.
69 Ministers, 327 Members of Parliament, 278 political appointees who include 80 resident District Commissioners and assistants, 75 presidential advisors and 43 private presidential secretaries and their deputies. This is just a picture of Uganda's over-the-top public administration. Pearl of Africa as commonly known is argued that not only is it a sleeping giant but also an over-governed and unproductive country.
It has many administrative units; 45,000 local councils, 5500 parishes, 1026 sub-counties, 151 counties, 18 municipalities and 80 districts. All these structures have executive 10 man executive officials. So, the total number of officials is 10 times the number of every administrative unit.
Not so many people know and not so many people understand why because the few who know do not share and the few who understand do not explain and so the story continues but in silent dreams - dreams full of several "whats" and "hows". The very few good Samaritans who decide to share what they know are often handsomely rewarded with early graves while the very few who try to explain end up with barbecued tongues.
Our maker did not put us here to suffer yet we continue to suffer all day and night. "A hand that does not work must not eat" yet some of us are left with no limbs at all.
Some say we are lazy. Some say we are selfish. Some say we are ignorant while others consider us nothing but foolish fools.

Our ship, the Arctic Sunrise, has gone from the Southern Ocean
to St. Kitts, this time ready to confront the Japanese whalers in
the political arena. But we've been denied entry into the waters
surrounding St. Kitts, without any explanation as to why.
But what started out badly improved markedly, when by the
narrowest of margins, Japan lost the most important votes it was
pursuing. Japan's efforts to eliminate protection for dolphins,
porpoises, and small whales, introduce a secret voting ballot,
abolish the Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary, and earn an exemption
on the moratorium against commercial whaling, all failed to pass by
just a few votes.
This was great news for whales, but was quickly overshadowed by
a non-binding resolution following the arrival of another
pro-whaling nation, which revealed that Japan has indeed gained a
simple majority vote on the IWC.
This turning of the tides signals a serious threat for whales,
and one last vote has us particularly interested. Japan would gladly hand
Greenpeace our ejection notice for 'interference with whale
research.' The vote to remove our observer status at the IWC
meetings, including next year's meetings in Alaska, will take place
in a couple of days - a retribution for our efforts to protect
whales in the Southern Ocean.
But that won't stop us from returning to the Southern Oceans
again this year, and confronting the Japanese whalers as they
attempt to slaughter even more whales.
Already this year, Japan's whalers increased their slaughter -
under the guise of 'scientific research' - killing 853 whales,
including 10 fin whales, the second largest whales in the world's
oceans, and one of the most endangered. And they've already
announced plans to increase the slaughter next year, including 50
fin whales and plan to add endangered humpback whales to the menu
in 2007/2008.
It is clear that Japan has now gained a simple majority of
votes, and next year's meeting in Alaska promises to be a turning
point, unless anti-whaling nations like ours really fight back. If
Japan gains control of the IWC, it will start turning back the
clock on whale conservation and laying the groundwork to undo the
ban on commercial whaling.
We'll continue our fight to keep that from happening. Will you
join us?
The fight to protect whales promises to wage on, and we promise to be in the thick of it. Help Support our efforts as we return to the Southern Ocean.

For months, Ravens fans have been trading in their Friday business attire, work uniforms and school clothes for purple-hued garments — flaunting their support for the team. But this Purple Friday could be the most extreme yet.
As the AFC North champions prepare to face the Houston Texans in a home playoff game this weekend, some schoolchildren will get to shed uniforms to don team colors. National Aquarium staff members are wearing Ravens jerseys or purple shirts in place of the usual blue polos, and in Annapolis, Gov. Martin O'Malley has ordered purple illumination for some state buildings and declared an official "Purple Friday" for state workers.

Just as they did eleven months ago, the Atlanta Falcons have passed up the opportunity to let cameras closely chronicle their day-to-day operations this summer. After conducting "extensive discussions at every level of the organization," the Falcons declined an offer to appear on HBO's hit series, Hard Knocks, a league source tells ESPN. During the lockout-shortened offseason in 2011, the Falcons showed initial interest in appearing on the award-winning reality program, but eventually chose to nix the idea. Instead of film crews documenting their every move, the club decided they'd rather have their focus be "exclusively on the football field," which is similar to the reasoning they used last year. With Atlanta now out of the mix, the report lists the Jets and Jaguars as two teams that could fit the bill. New York, of course, was featured on Hard Knocks in 2010, with foul-mouthed coach Rex Ryan providing HBO with a five-week ratings extravaganza.

Todd Edwards has a lot of lovely garage house going down on his SoundCloud page and "Love Inside" has that nu disco feel that gets me every time. As I sit here at my desk, I dance in spirit, excited to burn this puppy to disc and give it some love on the tables.
It's the end of the day and my brain has gone to fantasy mode, so let's imagine I'm playing for you now, because that's way more fun than what I'm actually doing. Plus, this track is meant for the dance floor. Dream with me.

CEDAR RAPIDS You hear "Blue Oval" in track and field circles, you automatically think "Drake Relays."
You might want to think something else.
Think Jasmine.
Sophomore Jasmine Blue won four events, keying Cedar Rapids Jefferson to three meet relay records at the 14-team J-Hawk Relays on a cool but quick Saturday at Kingston Stadium.
"As a freshman, I was scared all the time," she said. "Now I have a better outlook. I know what people expect of me, and what I expect of myself."
She smiled.
"I still get very nervous, though."
Six meet records fell Saturday. Three were claimed by the Big Blue Speed Crew.
Blue as in Jefferson. Blue as in Jasmine.
She joined Lucy Schneekloth and Abilene Ranschau in all three record setters; Jefferson ran 1:44.56 in the 800-meter relay, 1:50.44 in the sprint medley and 49.53 seconds in the 400 relay.
Madi Ranschau was in the sprint medley (and won the 100-meter hurdles), Morgan Meese in the other two relays.
"We saw some of the records and said, 'Hey we can knock some of these off,' said Blue, who also won the 100-meter dash in 13.10 seconds.

When Is The Glee Project Season 2 Premiere?
Season 2 of The Glee Project now has an official premiere date: The reality competition show will be returning to our TV screens on June 5, 2012. But instead of airing on Sunday nights like last year, the show is moving to a much more familiar evening.
The Oxygen show looking to find the next Glee star now airs on the same night as Glee itself: Tuesdays! Now, The Glee Project will air at 10pm on Oxygen, instead of 8pm on FOX like Glee, so don't assume that nothing about your Tuesday nights will change after Glee airs itsSeason 3 finale on May 22. Still, it's pretty darn close.
Plus, how cool is it that we only have two weeks of downtime between the Glee Season 3 finale and the Glee Project 2 premiere? After that 7-week Glee hiatus earlier this year, two weeks should feel like nothing!
Unlike last season, this year's 14 new contestants will have four past or current Glee members to look up to: Glee Project Season 1 finalists Lindsay Pearce (Harmony), Alex Newell (Wade/Unique), and winners Damian McGinty (Rory) and Samuel Larsen (Joe). Now that you've met the new contenders, which of them do you think has what it takes to earn a place on the Season 4 Glee cast?

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. – West Virginia plays host to Bowling Green today in a homecoming contest that will be televised on the Big East Network.
Today's game marks the third meeting between the two schools, the most recent game coming in 1991 when West Virginia pulled out a narrow 24-17 victory. The first game took place in 1988 when the Mountaineers defeated the Falcons 62-14.
Hall of Fame coach Don Nehlen, a Bowling Green alumnus, will be recognized during today's game. Former Mountaineer quarterbacks from all eras will be on hand to help honor the former coach.
Locally, fans can watch the game on ROOT SPORTS, while outside of West Virginia and Western Pa the game can be seen on Game Plan and ESPN3.com.
The Mountaineer Sports Network (Tony Caridi, Dwight Wallace, Jed Drenning and Hoppy Kercheval) will carry the game statewide as well as nationally on satellite radio (Sirius channel 92 and XM channel 192).
Here is today's Countdown to Kickoff:
10 – The Mountaineers now have TEN scoring drives of 10 plays or longer this year in four games, or just four fewer than their total of 14 for the entire 2010 season.
9 – Bowling Green's defense has created NINE turnovers in four games so far this year – four interceptions and five fumble recoveries. WVU, meanwhile, has created just three and is still searching for its first fumble recovery.
8 – EIGHT true freshmen have now seen action for West Virginia so far this season: Connor Arlia, Jared Barber, Andrew Buie, Dustin Garrison, Paul Millard, Vernard Roberts, Shaq Petteway and Avery Williams.
7 – West Virginia is presently SEVENTH in the country in punt returns averaging 18 yards per return.
6 – SIX different receivers have caught at least one touchdown pass, with Stedman Bailey leading the way with three.
5 – In last Saturday's loss to LSU, quarterback Geno Smith had his FIFTH 300-yard-plus total offensive performance with his school-record 468-yard effort against the Tigers. Smith had 396 yards last year against Rutgers, 377 earlier this season at Maryland, 372 against Norfolk State and 329 last year at Marshall.
4 – The Mountaineers are looking for their FOURTH non-conference victory of 2011. West Virginia had its 18-game home non-conference winning streak snapped last Saturday by top-ranked LSU.
3 – Today's game is the THIRD meeting between the two schools. West Virginia defeated Bowling Green 62-14 in 1988 and 24-17 in 1991.
2 – Tavon Austin and Stedman Bailey lead the Mountaineers with TWO 100-yard receiving performances so far this year. Austin's 100-yard games came against LSU (187) and Maryland (122) while Bailey's were versus LSU (115) and Maryland (113).
1 – The Mountaineer defense is still searching for their FIRST fumble recovery of the season.
Enjoy the game and be sure to stop back afterward for complete post-game coverage.

Art goes wild in Tel Aviv
Posted By Karin Kloosterman On March 15, 2012 @ 12:00 am In Visual Arts | No Comments
The edgier side of Tel Aviv's young and dynamic art scene reflects the creative vibrancy of Israelis. This scene will come to life at Art Year 2012.
The city declared this yearlong event especially to honor the opening of the new Herta and Paul Amir Building for Israeli art at the Tel Aviv Museum of Art. The fluid schedule will hinge on a few main events, but will continue showcasing Israeli art and performing arts throughout the year.
Adi Yekutieli, the director of Art Year, thinks that art is Israel's best export. Yekutieli says that art is about possibilities — especially in a region so often portrayed negatively by international media.
"It presents a different possibility to discuss Israel with people that are interacting with an international audience," he says.
"Art comes from a place of reflecting or expressing. It is not dogmatic like politics, but presents a very human insight to Israel and to the artists. Art in a way always reflects reality. When [the Israeli] dance troupe Batsheva goes to dance abroad, they represent a very different kind of conversation, a very active culture, an international kind of language."
Going Gaga at the museum
Dance, art and music will all be celebrated at Art Year. The March 21-24 Art Weekend kickoff event is planned to generate excitement with open galleries and art marathons throughout the conjoined seaside cities of Tel Aviv and Jaffa.
A 24-hour art gallery opening at the Tel Aviv Museum of Art will offer curator talks, art classes, tours and even dance, when Gaga — a free-movement dance therapy approach conceived by Ohad Naharin from Batsheva — will perform at the museum.
The otherwise conservative museum will be opening an entire wall as a blank canvas, as it were, for unknown or aspiring Israeli artists. Any young artist can submit work anonymously to be considered by a committee of locals and outsiders who will curate the show.
"This act might seem minor," Yekutieli says, "but once you start thinking about it, is very important. Anybody can apply, and nobody will know your name. You will be judged just on the art itself. It will be displayed for 24 hours only, but it will be a way for new artists to be discovered."
Yekutieli says there will be a conference on art and business, which will give artists useful information about making art a career that can also pay the bills.
White Night
Tel Aviv's Most Unconventional Hotel Room, part of the international Pixel Hotel project in which Atlas Hotel chain is converting a lifeguard shack into a mini-hotel, is to be unveiled by the end of Art Year.
Another international event is Replace 2012, where 15 galleries from Berlin will send artists, curators, and journalists to Tel Aviv.
Other events throughout the year may include an ethnic music festival, street festivals, special features from the gay art scene — all with the intention of promoting Tel Aviv as a global city.
"Art from here but viewed from a global perspective," says Yekutieli.

Kenya's current account deficit is approaching dangerous levels, according to the latest World Bank report on the county's economy. The report titled "Walking a tightrope; re-balancing Kenya's economy with a special focus on regional integration states that Kenya is living beyond its means, with imports far outweighing exports at an alarming level.
Kenya reported a current account deficit of 13.1 percent of Gross Domestic Product, one of the highest in world, leaving the country vulnerable to volatile inflation and external shocks as witnessed in shilling slump due to high oil prices import bill. Historically, from 1980 until 2011, Kenya current account to GDP averaged -3.1800 per cent reaching an all time high of 2.2000 Percent in December of 2002.
According to the report, Kenya's economy is driven by unsustainable consumption manifested in rapid growth of retail, all considered risky grounds if not supported by commensurate growth in manufacturing sector. The World Bank forecasts that Kenya's economy will at best grow at 5.4 per cent this year, but remains vulnerable to domestic and global shocks that may reduce growth to 4.1 per cent. "Structural weaknesses, including widening of current account deficit, pose a significant risk to Kenya's economic stability. Another oil price shock, poor harvest, or contagion in the Euro zone could easily create renewed economic turbulence and reverse the recent gains," said Jane Kiringai, the bank's senior economist for Kenya.
The survey indicates that the manufacturing sector has stagnated for a number of years, consequently slowing down generation of job opportunities. It recommends that Kenya redirects its energy towards the manufacturing sector for production of export goods into the East African region and eliminate all non tariff barriers to facilitate smooth trade.
Kiringai, the lead author of the report said Kenya is the worst performer economically in the East African Community, the second fastest growing trade block on the globe, yet it has the potential to lead.
She said that although Kenya is seen to support the East African community common markets agenda, it holds the record for the highest number of non tariff barriers, including bottlenecks at the port of Mombasa, unnecessary weigh bridges and excessive roadblocks on the northern corridor, all contributing to high cost of business. "Deepening Kenya's intra-EAC trade would help reduce its widening current account deficit, cushion it against global turbulence and open the economy to more Foreign Direct Investment," says Wolfgang Fengler, the Lead Economist for Kenya.

Lively is running a Kickstarter campaign even though it already has venture funding under its belt. The purpose of the campaign? Marketing. Lively
Kickstarter may not be a store. But it's a great way for a product company to test the market, even if it already has money in the bank.
That's what Lively, a San Francisco startup that makes sensors and combines them with an online service to keep track of independent seniors, is testing.
The company already has $2.5 million in funding from Seattle venture capital firm Maveron, and it's selling its product on its website for $90 a pop. So it doesn't exactly need to raise money from the crowd.
Nonetheless, it's launched a Kickstarter campaign looking for $100,000. The purpose? Marketing.
Here's what Erin Griffith of PandoDaily has to say about the campaign:
It is not, despite the makeup of the word "crowdfunding," about raising money. "We don't really see Kickstarter primarily as a crowdfunding platform for us," CEO Iggy Fanlo says, adding, "Most hardware companies would probably say the same thing." Instead, the company is using Kickstarter as a way to experiment with reaching its audience and raising awareness. "That's why the target is low," he adds. It's about getting an audience interested and invested, both emotionally and monetarily. Help with forecasting demand is nice, too.
It's not an outrageous notion. After all, if you can convince people to donate to your company, you have a pretty good chance of getting them to buy your product. And if you can't, you have evidence that a pivot may be in order.
In Lively's case, the buyers or donors would be buying into a set of sensors that can be affixed to such things as pill bottles and other things seniors routinely use. Those sensors send data to a senior's loved ones.
Since coming aboard with Upstart's parent company, Kent has covered sustainability and business, entrepreneurs, technology, and venture capital. Now, he covers all the ways upstart businesses get their money.

I ended Global Entrepreneurship Week 2013 last week in Moscow just in time to see a GEW-themed bus driving around different universities, schools and gatherings while testing young peoples' entrepreneurial skills and engaging them in the world of founding businesses. Skeptics in the international community might want to take a closer look at what cities can do – even in environments where there are persistent national barriers to new firm formation.
Members of the Senate are still on Thanksgiving recess but the House is back in action. The House Rules Committee will work on a couple pieces of legislation this week before they hit the House floor. The Innovation Act (H.R. 3309) takes aim at patent trolls through a number of reforms including increased transparency and 'fee shifting' so the loser pays attorney fees in a patent case. The Small Business Capital Access and Job Preservation Act (H.R. 1105) would effectively exempt private equity firms from registering with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Other topics covered by committee hearings include: the bankruptcy code, small business lending, regulatory burdens on small financial institutions, the impacts of the health care law on small employers and government regulation in a changing energy landscape.
See who made this week's list
At a Life Science Ventures Summit hosted by the Kauffman Foundation, Huffington Post writer Jennifer Hill led a discussion focused on the players in entrepreneurship and asked the panel about approaching investors (0:38:28 – 0:44:00). The panel included Nick Franano, Avi Roop and Geoff Clapp.
It is common for startups to focus on a specific group for the target market for their product, but developing an innovation that benefits the direct user as well as the indirect users can go a long way during an entrepreneur's journey.
Long understood to be the engine of the U.S. economy, the world is embracing entrepreneurship as one of the primary means of building a long-term recovery. Ironically, for this spreading global fervor to make a sustainable impact, the world of entrepreneurship must shrink.
Something extraordinary happened in Kansas City last Thursday. For the second year in a row, some of Kansas City's largest organizations participated in a reverse pitch. KCNext, the host and organizer, brought in a capacity crowd of over 200 entrepreneurs and other Global Entrepreneurship Week event participants. There were 65 events in Kansas City spread across a week and a half. But this event was different. This one was special.
The next couple of weeks will be fairly quiet in Washington, DC, as Congress has adjourned for Thanksgiving holiday recess. The House will reconvene in one week on Monday, December 2, while the Senate doesn't reconvene until the following Monday, December 9.

Crossbow Scopes
Another advantage crossbows have over traditional bows is the ability to mount scopes or optics on them. A crossbow scope generally has a tiered reticle with cross-hairs for shooting at different distances. This allows a crossbow to be accurate at great distances of up to 60 yards.
Avalanche� Crossbows
Avalanche Crossbows are an up and coming brand in the world of crossbows. They are known for producing inexpensive, performance crossbows in both the entry level and hunting crossbow range. While these bows may not be as popular as brands like Barnett and Excalibur, they will not disappoint the average crossbow shooter.
This is the best crossbow I have ever had. It is quite accurate I can put a hole thru a pop can at 75 feet no problem, or go squirrel hunting with it if I want too. So the only problem I found was the string it will fray after a while.
Wasn't sure if it would be worth the $20. But it is. Very powerful too, went straight through my target. The bolts could be better, The one that went through the tip broke off. Still powerful enough to stick without the tip though. For the price it's a nice introduction to crossbows.
I'll admit, I was nervous about dropping $100 on what could potentially be a crappy crossbow. My fears were very quickly negated when the bow arrived. It is very solid, easy to assemble,
and extremely powerful. I destroyed the first arrow because I underestimated the bow's power, and shot an arrow clean through a sheet of plywood, stripping off the fletching. After mounting a scope on the rail getting everything sighted in, I've no doubt this crossbow will take out many deer this coming hunting season.
Great starter crossbow. Requires locktite to keep screws in place. Fairly accurate, but the trigger is "jerky". Shoots straight and hits hard. Good deal for the money.
What kind of a crazy person would want a full size crossbow with a pistol grip? ME! And who can you buy such a thing from? ONLY BUDK! I have been looking for a crossbow like this for a long time. I like unusual things and this qualifies as most cool. It is a centerpiece of my collection and always gains the interest of visitors. I'm going to get the foldable version next.

Put that code in its own method and pass the method as a delegate to a BackgroundWorker. There are many more options for threading in .NET but that's probably the simplest one here.
thanks everyone and yes it is in an endless loop how do I put it in its own thread?
Posted 09 November 2012 - 13:48
How does it not work? What do you expect it to do? Do you have a client as well? A listener is just that, a listener, it listens to incoming connections. You need one instance of your app that acts as the server and one (or multiple others) that act as the client. There's a link to an example TcpClient in that same tutorial page for TcpListener. Read up on tcp connections, how to establish a connection, how to pass messages around, how to close the connection.
"A lot of ifs" is a terrible way of going about this btw. What would you do for a 10x10 tic-tac-toe? Code 100 if-elses? What if you wanted to support multiple different sizes? If you don't know about lists and loops I don't think there's any way you're going to add multiplayer functionality. Start one step at a time.

Of course, googling any of the terms I mentionned will return you hundreds of useful results.
Is there a sample of that somewhere?
Posted 10 November 2012 - 21:03
"Me" is a reference to the current object, for instance if your code is inside your main Form class (like most tutorials assume), then "Me" is a reference to the Form object, which has an Invoke and a BeginInvoke method. Since I suppose you segregated your background thread code to another class, you'll have to pass it a reference to the Form object in order to invoke any methods of the Form from it. Alternatively, you could simply bring that code back to the main Form class and you'd be able to use "Me" to reference to Form then.
I dont get any of the codes they all use me.whatever and that always causes an error

The Rabbit RIO chip offers both I/O expansion and peripheral features that easily integrate into new or existing designs. It interfaces to any microcontroller with an available SPI or parallel port. Multiple peripheral features offer a distinct advantage for motor control applications. The Rabbit RIO simply takes the load off the processor, making it ideal for applications with demanding networking requirements.
The RIO Programmable I/O Kit demonstrates how to expand an embedded control system design by adding additional I/O, timing and other features. The kit is built around the Rabbit RIO® I/O chip, which is a peripheral device designed to be incorporated into systems requiring versatile timing controls and a broad range of functionality. The included RIO chip comes preinstalled on a prototyping board with configurable header locations to allow you to develop your own applications using Dynamic C® and the included sample programs.
The Rabbit RIO is also ideal for machine control applications. I/Os are 5V tolerant, which also includes pin-pair protection for applications such as H-bridge drivers. Since multiple status bits are set from a single match register, pins are easily configurable for higher drive current operations. The same signal could be output on multiple pins for applications that require a higher current. It also provides push pull protection for sink and source drivers.
The RIO Programmable I/O Kit contains the following items:
Included with the RIO Programmable I/O Kit are several sample programs that were developed around the Rabbit RIO prototyping board and the RabbitCore® RCM4110 module:
Besides what is supplied with the RIO Programmable I/O kit, you will need a PC with an available COM or USB port to program the RCM4110 included with the kit.

There is a reason I am a writer and not, say, a travel agent. Or someone who works in mass transit. Or the person in charge of drawing up the Major League Baseball schedule. For I have tried to plan our summer schedule, and juggling trips, work, camps, activities, and family time made me exhausted before the last day of school.
Working from home gives me the flexibility to hang out with my kids, which is great. But deadlines don't stop for summer, which is not so great. Without the kids in school five days a week, I need to carve out some other time to get stuff done.
My original plan to alternate one week of the kids in day camp with one week at home quickly fell apart when I discovered that it was impossible to get camps coordinated on the same schedule that would fit my two kids, who have different genders, age groups, and interests. Take the half-day afternoon Lego filmmaking camp, which I knew my son would love. I couldn't find a camp for my daughter at that same time to save my life. Gymnastics, drama, dance, karate–I tried them all and more, but they weren't offered the same week as the Lego camp, or they were offered in the morning, or they were offered at the same time but in another town, making it logistically impossible to be in two drop-offs at once. And the week of my daughter's theater camp is a big empty hole for my son, as I'm still trying to muster the wherewithal to get him some–any!–camp.
My enthusiasm is even more dampened by the thought of shelling out another couple hundred bucks (or more) for five days of camp, after paying for our other camps and a few days' vacation. After racking up the camps fees on the credit card, I briefly considered quitting my jobs and running my own summer camp.
So we don't have a perfectly organized schedule–heck, we barely have an organized schedule–which means just letting go and having as much fun with the kids as I can during the days. And working more at night.

Comments about this product:
I first saw this film over thirty years ago, and was glad to find it here. The subtitles were much better on TCM than on the version I found at the local library. The story is powerful, as is Peter Lorre's portayal of the killer. Frankly, I'm surprised that this movie has not been remade.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The following appeared as a Letter to the Editor in the January 24, 2012 issue of the Detroit Free Press.
Immigration hero
I wanted to express my congratulations, as well as those of the staff of Data Driven Detroit (D3), to State Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Detroit, who was recently named one of the top 10 heroes for immigrants by the Immigrants' List, a political action committee dedicated to immigration reform. I have had the pleasure of knowing Tlaib for a number of years, starting when she was assisting Rep. Steve Tobocman, who held her seat immediately before her. Tlaib is a tireless champion for the residents of her district, and is a voice for Michigan immigrants, as well as everyone in need.
While we discuss the importance of attracting immigrants, let us recognize the contributions of those already here. A quick review of the immigrant population in metropolitan Detroit in 2010 shows that they are more likely to be of prime working age (25-44 years) than the native-born population (38% vs. 24%), more likely to live in married couple families (65% of 15 years and over are married vs. 45%) and to have larger households (3.15 vs. 2.51). Thirty-seven percent of immigrants (25 years and over) have at least a bachelor's degree vs. 26% of native born, and their median household income is slightly higher.
Tlaib works tirelessly for all her constituents — immigrants and native born alike. She truly sets an example that can serve every one of us as we strive to make our city, region and state a better place for all.

WASHINGTON—For most of its history, the United States Food and Drug Administration approved new prescription medicines at a grudging pace, paying daily homage to the physician's creed, "First, do no harm."
Then in the early 1990s, the demand for AIDS drugs changed the political climate. Congress told the FDA to work closely with pharmaceutical firms in getting new medicines to market more swiftly. President Clinton urged FDA leaders to trust industry as "partners, not adversaries."
Seven drugs approved since 1993 have been withdrawn after reports of deaths and severe side effects. A two-year Los Angeles Times investigation has found that the FDA approved each of those drugs while disregarding danger signs or blunt warnings from its own specialists. Then, after receiving reports of significant harm to patients, the agency was slow to seek withdrawals.
According to "adverse-event" reports filed with the FDA, the seven drugs were cited as suspects in 1,002 deaths. Because the deaths are reported by doctors, hospitals and others on a voluntary basis, the true number of fatalities could be far higher, according to epidemiologists.
An adverse-event report does not prove that a drug caused a death; other factors, such as preexisting disease, could play a role. But the reports are regarded by public health officials as the most reliable early warnings of danger.
The FDA's performance was tracked through an examination of thousands of pages of government documents, other data obtained under the Freedom of Information Act and interviews with more than 60 present and former agency officials.
The seven drugs were not needed to save lives. One was for heartburn. Another was a diet pill. A third was a painkiller. All told, six of the medicines were never proved to offer lifesaving benefits, and the seventh, an antibiotic, was ultimately judged unnecessary because other, safer antibiotics were available.
The seven are among hundreds of new drugs approved since 1993, a period during which the FDA has become known more for its speed than its caution. In 1988, only 4% of new drugs introduced into the world market were approved first by the FDA. In 1998, the FDA's first-in-the-world approvals spiked to 66%. The drug companies' batting average in getting new drugs approved also climbed. By the end of the 1990s, the FDA was approving more than 80% of the industry's applications for new products, compared with about 60% at the beginning of the decade.
And the companies have prospered: The seven unsuccessful drugs alone generated U.S. sales exceeding $5 billion before they were withdrawn.
Once the world's unrivaled safety leader, the FDA was the last to withdraw several new drugs in the late 1990s that were banned by health authorities in Europe.
"This track record is totally unacceptable," said Dr. Curt D. Furberg, a professor of public health sciences at Wake Forest University. "The patients are the ones paying the price. They're the ones developing all the side effects, fatal and non-fatal. Someone has to speak up for them."
The FDA's faster and more lenient approach helped supply pharmacy shelves with scores of new remedies. But it has also yielded these fatal missteps, according to the documents and interviews:
* Only 10 months ago, FDA administrators dismissed one of its medical officer's emphatic warnings and approved Lotronex, a drug for treating irritable bowel syndrome. Lotronex has been linked to five deaths, the removal of a patient's colon and other bowel surgeries. It was pulled off the market on Nov. 28.
* The diet pill Redux, approved in April 1996 despite an advisory committee's vote against it, was withdrawn in September 1997 after heart-valve damage was detected in patients put on the drug. The FDA later received reports identifying Redux as a suspect in 123 deaths.
* The antibiotic Raxar was approved in November 1997 in the face of evidence that it may have caused several fatal heart-rhythm disruptions in clinical studies. FDA officials chose to exclude any mention of the deaths from the drug's label. The maker of the pill withdrew it in October 1999. Raxar was cited as a suspect in the deaths of 13 patients.
* The blood pressure medication Posicor was approved in June 1997 despite findings by FDA specialists that it might fatally disrupt heart rhythm and interact with certain other drugs, posing potentially severe risk. Posicor was withdrawn one year later; reports cited it as a suspect in 100 deaths.
* The painkiller Duract was approved in July 1997 after FDA medical officers warned repeatedly of the drug's liver toxicity. Senior officials sided with the manufacturer in softening the label's warning of the liver threat. The drug was withdrawn 11 months later. By late 1998, the FDA had received voluntary reports citing Duract as a suspect in 68 deaths, including 17 that involved liver failure.
* The diabetes drug Rezulin was approved in January 1997 over a medical officer's detailed opposition and was withdrawn this March after the agency had linked 91 liver failures to the pill. Reports cite Rezulin as a suspect in 391 deaths.

Ready to take your graphics to the next level? Get up and running with OpenGL, the cross-language, multiplatform API for rendering 2D and 3D computer graphics. OpenGL is widely used in CAD, virtual reality, scientific visualization, and video games, where it is particularly useful for game developers who benefit from its hardware-accelerated rendering and advanced programmable pipeline. In this course, Pablo Colapinto will show you how to render real-time content, starting with building a window for your graphics with the GFLW library. Then he'll focus on drawing in 2D and 3D with both the legacy immediate mode and the more modern method of using buffer objects. Plus, learn about texturing and lighting with the GLSL shading language, and accepting keyboard and mouse input for increased interactivity. Start accelerating your graphics with OpenGL today.
(light chime noises) -Hi, my name is Pablo Colapinto and welcome to "Up and Running with OpenGL." In this course, we'll be learning how to render real time content using the OpenGL API. The world's current standard for cross-platform graphics. I'll begin by showing you how to create a window context for our graphics using the GLFW library. Then, we'll add some geometric primitives in this window using GLs "Legacy Immediate" mode before moving on to modern OpenGL programming.
Next, we'll investigate how to generate 3-D meshes by sending buffers of vertex data to the GPU and how to manipulate our virtual scene using matrix transforms. Finally, we'll explore textures and lighting using the GLSL shading language and add some basic interactivity using our keyboard and mouse. By the end of this course, you'll be up to speed with modern OpenGL and the new advanced, programmable Pipeline. Now, let's get started with "Up and Running with OpenGL."

A Better (Flatter) Way To Watch The World Cup
No more ugly patches on your screen showing the score. Instead, why not a clean, flat, easy-to-read design?
There's plenty of good, functional design at the World Cup; the ball, the the uniforms. But one important part of the World Cup, the way games are presented on TV, could use some work. While flipping through the channels to watch his native Dutch team, "We suddenly came to realize that every sports channel had an out-dated look and feel to it," designer Guus ter Beek tells us in an email. A mockup from ter Beek and colleagues Tayfun Sarier, Jordon Cheung, and George Grace takes a crack at a solution.
There needs to be a certain amount of information on screen when watching a sports event, so you can tell at a glance what's going on. You need the score, you need the time. Maybe some other stuff. I asked ter Beek what ESPN, which (along with parent company ABC) holds a contract to air the World Cup in the U.S. this year, was doing wrong. "When we have a closer look at ESPN we immediately notice the soft gradients and the black and purple colors not looking very appealing; they are popping in our face and shouting," he says. And ESPN isn't the only one; ter Beek checked out lots of sports channels, and says, "They always had either too much drop shadow, or frivolous elements, and an abundance of gradients." This conceptual design offers something different: flat graphics, bold colors, and a carefully curated emphasis on certain bits of information.
For one, the team's colors are much more obvious in this mockup than on ESPN's; you can tell immediately which team is which—helpful for, um, Americans like me who don't actually watch soccer unless it's the World Cup. The time remaining is displayed prominently, and there's even a little white border that slowly fills up as time proceeds. Helvetica was chosen for the font because it's easy to read without being distracting, ter Beek says (though we're not so sure Helvetica is ideal for all situations).
But games often feature more information than just the time and score; it's common to overlay some extra tidbits on screen—sometimes you need to identify a particular player, or explain the history between two teams, or give some outlandish statistic (like, say, in each of these two teams' previous meetups, one of the teams always won by one goal). So the designers created an entire catalog of simple icons to indicate weather, injuries, fouls, substitutions, and players' names. They even suggest a graphic to begin the match, showing the stadium location, weather, attendance, and local time—the weather especially is relevant in the tropical heat of Brazil.
Flat design is everywhere. Just this week, Google rolled out its latest design mission, to bring flat design to all its devices and services. We've seen flat takes on animal butts, and in fact, flat design has become so commonplace, we're already seeing a minor blowback. But it certainly hasn't hit sports coverage yet. Game graphics have a very particular and important job to do: they have to be easy to read at a glance, and they can't distract from the action on the field (or court, or stadium). Flat design could be the answer: no-nonsense, no fanciness, just simplicity and clarity.
You can read more about it over at the team's Medium post.

Please stop referring everything to "Flat design". This concept is very amateurish and doesn't provide any factual evidences or valid reasoning for the design. Simply because something looks bad doesn't mean it gives you the authority to design whatever you feel like will look good. There is reason behind design and this just gives the design industry a bad name. And a design trend is never the answer. Sure, this design may "look" pleasing to you, but throw this on a 40" and stand 20 feet back and see if it will work. Design is both form AND function.
I agree that sometime the design of the overlays is a little bit "overdesigned" taking too much screen real estate without adding any valuable information. on the other hand the proposal depicted in the article is well... flat! anyway in my opinion the point is designing a set of infographics that adjust to the context and maybe that can be set and modified by the user (the broadcaster sends the metadata and the set-top-box takes care of the display).

SAFE TRADER APP SOFTWARE REVIEW — IS IT A SCAM? https://medium.com/safe-trader-app-system-review-dose-safe-trader-app/safe-trader-app-review-does-safe-trader-app-work-f0ea543cb00f
What is Safe Trader App ?
Safe Trader App is a type of Binary option trading software that you can download directly to your desktop. It works on the principle where you have to decide whether the price of an asset will go up or down in the next sixty seconds. Everything you need to know about the trade and all the indicators are contained in this one software and so you don't have to go around looking for them on several websites.
What you need to do here is that you need to decide if the value of the asset will go up or down as soon as you hit the tab. This is done with the use of two tabs: "Call" or "PUT".

Whilst I agree that most sports broadcasters employ really outdated and unintuitive design, I'm not sure "Flat design is everywhere" is good justification to down this route. ("Hey, let's do it because everyone else is!" ?!)
Sure, it could work, but personally I find ter Beek's proposals fairly uninspiring and actually not too different from what we already see.
I don't think this is that great. It's boring and the "flat and Helvetica ALWAYS!" mantra sounds like the work of a Graphic Design 101 class.
ESPN's score bug is fine. I think their package looks better than this.
I think this is hideous.
I'm waiting for day when people realize that flat is not the solution for everything...
I am really confused...these are the graphics for ESPN in the world cup: http://imgur.com/BTgX3xB
These contain no purple or black...the rest of the graphics (full screen and other graphics) are made and displayed by the host broadcaster, and those are vividly white and green...
It would be perfect, if you use this font: http://newwwbie.com/blog/?p=212
I mean, anyway, it's look awesome in flat way that realistick. My opinion. Sorry for my poor english :)

So what is mesothelioma ?
Mesothelioma, more precisely malignant mesothelioma, is a rare form of cancer that develops from the protective lining that covers many of the body's internal organs, the mesothelium. It is usually caused by exposure to asbestos.
Its most common site is the pleura (outer lining of the lungs and internal chest wall), but it may also occur in the peritoneum (the lining of the abdominal cavity), the pericardium (a sac that surrounds the heart), or the tunica vaginalis (a sac that surrounds the testis).
Most people who develop mesothelioma have worked on jobs where they inhaled asbestos, or they have been exposed to asbestos dust and fiber in other ways. It has also been suggested that washing the clothes of a family member who worked with asbestos can put a person at risk for developing mesothelioma. Unlike lung cancer, there is no association between mesothelioma and smoking, but smoking greatly increases the risk of other asbestos-induced cancers. Those who have been exposed to asbestos have collected damages for asbestos-related disease, including mesothelioma. Compensation via asbestos funds or lawsuits is an important issue in law practices regarding mesothelioma.

The symptoms of mesothelioma include shortness of breath due to pleural effusion (fluid between the lung and the chest wall) or chest wall pain, and general symptoms such as weight loss. The diagnosis may be suspected with chest X-ray and CT scan, and is confirmed with a biopsy (tissue sample) and microscopic examination. A thoracoscopy (inserting a tube with a camera into the chest) can be used to take biopsies. It allows the introduction of substances such as talc to obliterate the pleural space (called pleurodesis), which prevents more fluid from accumulating and pressing on the lung. Despite treatment with chemotherapy, radiation therapy or sometimes surgery, the disease carries a poor prognosis. Research about screening tests for the early detection of mesothelioma is ongoing.

A Pit Bull Ban Is The Pits For Some In Caledonia
The police chief thinks it's a good idea...and so does the postmaster.
But a proposal to ban pit bulls in Caledonia is drawing some protests...often from people outside the community. The city attorney, Tim Murphy, is searching for precedents. A few months ago, a pit bull reportedly killed a smaller dog in Caledonia. Council members say the reactions they're hearing from residents come down on both sides of a ban.

The Sport For All Day held by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD) yesterday (August 7) attracted over 200 000 people taking part in free recreation programmes at designated venues in the 18 districts and enjoying fee-charging facilities of the department for free. More than 190 000 people participated in the same event last year.
"Close to 177 000 people used our free facilities yesterday. As compared with the figures of last year of about 165 000 people, there was an increase of more than 7 per cent. Hirers have made good use of the booked facilities as over 85 per cent of these booked facilities were taken up by the original hirers, similar to last year's situation. The majority of the booked facilities not taken up by hirers were reallocated to walk-in applicants on a first-come, first-served basis," a spokesman for the LCSD said.
"It was encouraging to witness the exceptionally high usage rate of some of our popular facilities such as sport arenas, billiard tables and American pool tables that day. Their overall usage rate ranged from about 96 per cent to 98 per cent."
Among those making free use of the LCSD's leisure facilities, over 109 000 people enjoyed swimming in the department's swimming pools. That was an increase of more than 10 per cent compared with last year. Ten swimming pools reached their maximum capacity during the peak hours in the afternoon yesterday.
Meanwhile, the free recreational programmes including health talks and exercise demonstrations, fitness corners and parent-child sports programmes, and opportunities for the middle-aged, the elderly and the disabled to play sports, as well as sports demonstrations, held at the LCSD's designated sports centres in 18 districts registered about 26 000 participants. The overall number of participants in the activities was higher than the enrolment quota.
The Sport For All Day this year adopted fitness walking as its main theme with the slogan "Be Smart and Healthy. Let's Take a Brisk Walk Daily". The LCSD set up 33 walking tracks throughout the territory, encouraging people to take up walking exercise regularly as part of their daily life. More than 1 000 people participated in the fitness walking activities held at four designated venues in Ma On Shan Promenade, Hong Kong Park, Po Kong Village Road Park and Tsing Yi Park on that day.
The spokesman said, "It is encouraging to see that members of the public gave active support for the Sport For All Day. We will continue our efforts to promote sport for all, encouraging people to appreciate the benefits of sports activities and to do more exercise on a regular basis for a stronger physique and better health."
