Welcome to the newbies, i hope you're stay is short and sweet .
Mags and Holiday sorry to hear things are not looking positive for this cycle...Holiday has your AF arrived yet?? Mags are you going to test?
AFM now on cd9 and have started using OPK's as of today, got a faint second line today so hopefully will get darker over the next few days.

Welcome to the newbies
Goodluck My3cubs maybe this will be your month.
Magsjee - What is happening? It has gone very quiet - have you tested or are you wanting for AF?
AFM: I tested using Confirm on 10dpo - neg, I tested on the day I would have got AF neg I then tested with FR on Wednesday - negative. Af is now two days late but I def know that I am not pg. I want af to hurry up so I can move on with the next cycle.
Posted 02 March 2012 - 08:11 PM
Holiday sorry to hear about your BFN's, well if your not utd i hope your AF shows up sooner rather than later so you can get onto another cycle.
Mags what's happening with you, have you tested yet?
Well im now on cd10 did another OPK still another faint test line but a little darker than yesterday's so im on the right track. Ive also started to get some EWCM so hopefully O isn't too far away.
Posted 05 March 2012 - 03:03 PM
AF arrived today Almost a week late!!! So CD1 today. I had a 31 day cycle - normal for me is 28-31. I am more likely to have a 28. I thought that I was in for a super short cycle this month because of when I o'd but no it ended up being 31 days. So things have started again for me.
How is everyone else?
Posted 05 March 2012 - 06:01 PM
Well I'm hoping that AF lands soon. I am now at 37 days. I have done 2 tests - both BFN. I think I have mild gastro - so last week as I was feeling sick, I was starting to get excited. Did a test yesterday and realised that I was getting excited about a stomach bug. Lame! But I'm pretty peeved about my unreliable body. Grrrrr.
Hope everyone else is in a better space.
In terms of planning, has anyine done basal temerature's on a normal thermometer?
Posted 05 March 2012 - 08:54 PM
For list
Posted 05 March 2012 - 09:11 PM
AF arrived, I'm really rather bummed tbh. I thought we had such a good chance last month - on holidays, no stress, BDing like crazy, all that good stuff. But no. This means that we're going into our 12 month of TTC in March, I honestly thought I'd be holding a baby by now or at least be severely up the duff.
The only good thing was that that cycle was 26 days, so 2 days longer than my previous 24 days ones. I'm more convinced than ever that I had a chem a couple of cycles back. I can't think of any other reason why a 28/29 day cycle would randomly become a 24 day one (for two cycles) and then go back to being longer.
Anywho, I've started a 10kg challenge with DH (as in first to lose wins), and I'm trying Vitex this cycle and generally improving my health.
I'm getting into temping as well, maybe that will reveal something.
Poo about the tummy bug firefly, that sucks bum.
Promise to be more upbeat next post.
Posted 07 March 2012 - 07:54 PM
AF arrived today . I feel normal again. Zoned out with some painkillers for a while and in a day dream counted the months. DH is away this month - so no 2012 baby. Kind of takes the pressure off in a way, but I'm a bit sad too. It's been so long ... And its seems I'm having one of those times, when everyone is announcing pregnancies. And then i have to stop the pity party and remember that some people are announcing tragedies in their lives and really we are doing okay.
So, this month, I'm getting the thermometer out and trying to graph it. I really hope those of you who are BDing like mad this month get the outcome. A good news story would be inspiring!
Posted 09 March 2012 - 08:10 PM
Hi Ladies
Sorry to hear AF has found you...so depressing sometimes . I have my fx for you all for next month.
AFM i got my very first ever very positive OPK result! It was darker than the test line so was def positive, im currently on cd17 2DPO so ov on cd15. Fx my cycle is a decent length otherwise my lp will be too short. Even better if i get my bfp but ill settle for a normal cycle.
Posted 19 March 2012 - 03:35 PM
Righto ladies....very quiet in here....but I am cd15 - and the signs are there that I am approaching ovulation.....have been very busy.....but it has been lots of fun Still my fun to be had
How is everyone else doing?
Posted 19 March 2012 - 04:04 PM
Hi HolidayRomp
Good luck with the BDing
I am on CD33 of my cycle but only just ovulated so am in the 2ww - on 3dpo! think I am still dealing with post pill cycles but hoping they will start to get better now or I get my BFP.
Got my first very positive OPK and lots of EWCM this cycle which was exciting! (god the things I get excited about now!!)
Posted 19 March 2012 - 05:01 PM
Fingers-crossed - that is a very long cycle. Mine are 28-31 days long. Are you using OPKs to pinpoint your surge? The pill does not agree with me but I do agree that it can take ages for cycles to get back in synch.
Posted 20 March 2012 - 09:40 AM
yeah its only my second cycle off the pill - first one was 66 days!!! yup did OPKs this cycle and last but only got my first positive one this cycle on CD28 and 29 and ovulated on CD30 so they worked for me
BDed two days and day before O so hoping I caught the egg
How are you doing - any signs of O yet?
Posted 21 March 2012 - 01:00 PM
Yup I O'd either yesterday or today. I am now CD17. Both DH and I are now having a break
We were really getting into things yesterday....me on top....tmi I know but that isn't the worst of it....anyway DH was just about there and then I farted a nice warbly loud one. I was sooo embarrassed. I stopped my movement just to keep myself from farting again and dissolving in a fit of giggles.
After we had finished DH commented on the interesting vibrations on his legs and yes he did hear me fart but was so close to ahem finishing he just ignored what was going on.
Also instead of commenting on how good sex was yada yada I sheepishly told him about my fart just before letting rip once again.
I am NEVER eating prunes in the amount I ate earlier.
Posted 21 March 2012 - 03:12 PM
I hope you're stay is short and sweeT.
Posted 22 March 2012 - 08:09 PM
Holiday - ROFPML That's brilliant. I somehow make a less than fabulously attractive face which somehow puts Mr Mags off
So I've been taking Vitex all/most of this cycle. I hope it does something but my cycles are so $crewed up that I've got no way to tell. My cycles are extending again (from 24 days to 26 days last cycle) after a chem, so I don't know what the Vitex will do.
I had a strange dream last night - I was really heavily pregnant and had to get to a certain location in order to teach (I'm a tutor at uni) and the steps were horrendous, really really steep (about 30 cm) and a hexagon shape only about 20cm round and it was 2 storeys down . Needless to say, it posed a wee bit of a challenge to me and my big belly and the lecturer I was walking/climbing down with had this smug 'look a the whale trying to climb down' look on his face. Which is weird, because he's a nice enough guy in real life. But I managed (and have him a bit of a 'truck you' look while I was at it). When I woke up I felt really happy though, so I hope it's a sign of things to come - the PG, not the horrid stairs
Posted 27 March 2012 - 09:36 AM
Magsjee - that is a really promising dream. I had similiar before I fell pregnant with DD1.
AFM: I don't think that it has happened this cycle. I am 7dpo but not holding out much hope. I even admitted it to DH last night.
How is everyone else going?
Posted 28 March 2012 - 12:35 PM
Hi ladies
Holidayromp ROFL about farting while dtd...i needed a giggle .
Well i didn't get utd last cycle and got my AF on cd28 so at least another normal cycle. Im currently on cd9 im sick as anything right now though with the flu and a chest infection. Fx im actually going to be able to dtd during our fertile period. Im now on cycle 11 of actively ttc .

Hi Ladies, I hope I will be able to join in here? DP and I are starting to try for number three (we are possibly insane....) already have a two year old boy and a 9 month old boy so hoping for pink this time round but I can't see it happening! I don't know if you do intros and stuff but I'm Amy and we have recently relocated to Perth. I was/am part of a NZ website with forums etc but thought joining an Aus one since we're here now would be better. Currently on cycle day 4 and am going to "wing it" for a couple of cycles then will probably get OPKs to pin point OV if we have no luck. Both boys were conceived easily so fingers crossed for the same again. I came off depo in November so everything is still up in the air re cycle length. Thanks in advance :)
Posted 07 April 2012 - 08:55 PM
Welcome OllieAndEmmett! Hope your stay is short and sweet.
We're into the business end of this cycle, so I hope Mr Mags is up to the job. I'm feeling really good about things right now, just focusing on getting my head in the right space, hopefully that will help. I was taking Vitex last cycle and I think it helped - AF was better than it has been in quite a while so hopefully that means my uterus has a better lining.
How is everyone else going?
Posted 11 April 2012 - 03:00 PM
Hi ladies, its been very quiet on this thread...i also joined the april ttc thread.
ollieandemmett welcome to the thread . Good luck with ttc hopefully its as quick as it was with your boys...unfortunately i was also on depo and it really stayed in my system for ages, its different for everybody though.
mags good news re vitex helping your AF..fx you can make it count this cycle.
AFM well im now on cd23 8DPO...not too many symptoms i got a super strong OPK on cd15 and pretty certain i ov later that same day, plus i had a very faint negative the day after. Even though i was really sick i managed to bd on cd 7,11,13 and 15...hoping it was enough. This is cycle 11 for me, can't believe its taken this long when all my other kids were conceived within 3 cycles. DH and I have had a good talk and have decided if im not utd by the end of the year we will take it as a sign and stop ttc. In a way its a good thing so we can just move on.
Posted 12 April 2012 - 01:10 PM
Hi there Girls, can I join in too? We're currently TTC#3 We have two beautiful kids & think a 3rd will complete our family. I have taken a pretty relaxed approach to TTC this time (with no acupuncture, vitex etc) but looking at my cycle now around 70 days may not be the best idea long term. I can feel AF symptoms so not holding much hope this cycle.
My3cubs sounds like you had good timing (even though you were sick)
Amy we think we might be crazy TTC#3 as well, did you always know you wanted 3? We conceived both our 2 in around a 4 month period (very blessed).
Hope everyone is well

Wow my3cubs, that's dedication. I hope it pays off
Welcome Tiken, hope your stay is short and sweet.
afm - well it's the last gasp of sexy time in the Mags household, and I hope that we've done enough this cycle. I had some really sharp stabby pains a few days ago but I'm not sure if they were O pains (they seemed a bit too early on in the cycle) but I haven't had any since. I'm still taking Vitex so no idea if that's changed O for me, although it seems to have delayed O for everyone else rather than made it early. Also no sign of any kind of CM this cycle so no idea what's going on.
I caught sight of my butt in the mirror the other day and had one of those moments. I'm going to really focus on my health and fitness - I've started a 30 day challenge today, and that image of my butt is going to be very motivational .

Phillies Tab Martin to Start Friday
Posted by Pat Gallen, Thu, August 01, 2013 02:43 PM | Comments: 10
Analysis, Minor Leagues, News, Opinion, Posts
Ethan Martin, brought to Philadelphia in the Shane Victorino-to-LA trade last summer, will make his major league debut on Friday against the Atlanta Braves. Martin was named the #3 prospect in the Phillies organization prior to the 2013 season by our minor league expert, Jay Floyd.
Martin, 24, has had a solid year at Lehigh Valley going 11-5 with a 4.12 ERA in 21 starts. In 115 2/3 innings, Martin has given up 94 hits while striking out 107 and walking 67. The scouting report on Martin is that he's a hard thrower at 6-2, 195. However, I've read/heard his fastball lacks a little movement, although his slider is pretty far along.
This could also mean Cliff Lee is not ready to start as he's been dealing with a stiff neck. Lee's ailment is not considered serious.
Here is an interview Ian did with Ethan just prior to the 2013 season:

What part of a 4.12 era and 1.4 WHIP counts as solid?
Posted: 11:21 PM on August 1, 2013
Posts: 0 Alex M.
Those numbers are not great, but in his last 10 starts he as been much better posting a record of 6-3 with an ERA of 2.80. Not to mention he is also on the 40 man roster so it made sense to give the kid a shot. He throws really hard getting his fastball up to around 97 mph and he has a good breaking ball. His command is the issue, but he is a very good young pitcher and he deserves a shot. Who else would you rather have start? Valdes, Cloyd or Martin? I think Martin deserves his shot, we need to see what he has because if he cannot make it as a starter they need to work on transitioning him to the pen.

I love how these "stories" are picked up when A: you don't know if the story is true, and B: it then becomes news... anyone could write something like this, and claim it happened with no proof, and every news site would pick up on it and post it cause it draws clicks.

I hate when salespersons are trying to start a lengthy talk with obvious nerds over things they barely know the 5 bullet points of the brochure about.
When I go in to buy something I know what I want, and I ask for it. If they tell me I should get something else I just silently look at them. After a bit they go get what I want.

Step 1: Creating
Step 2: Spawn Point
Step 3: Herobrine's island
Step 4: The Entry
seed: 900165
that isn't normal when I left my village I was mineing trees than suddenly it got dark and the black smith was on fire i never mined the lava thing is herobrine on my world?
Seed: gold-diamond
that always happen to me so i think its ordinary or something has been wrong with your building
mine i put lava then after i turn back and start building mine was set on fire
PS. my real name is Marielle
dont put your name on the internet!!!
Agreed with Rosie
its a bug its not herobrine and there are no storms on mcpe.
The lava set the wood on fire
EnderM, if it got dark because of a storm.... then lighting must of struck the blacksmith.... and it got on fire ): otherwise, then YES herobrine was on your world! Happy Mining!
No offence, you guys don't know that that is a blacksmith building. The blacksmith has a pool of lava so it sets the building on fire. It always happens on mine. No offence again.
i found herobrine and i killed him. First what I did was mine for enough diamonds for a full set of diamond armour and diamond sword then i i went to his hideout and killed him!
he is real but impossible to kill me and my brothers were building and all my dogs started dieing then my house started burning and my brothers couldn't move they were stuck then he was on top of my house watching my brother who got the screen shot I tried killing him but every time you try it takes you to your home screen
It's true he just respawned like a normal steve. He even did /kill to my brther nd he died instantly.
Guys Herobrine is NOT TRUE its an URBAN MYTH CONFIRMED BY NOTCH LOOK AT THIS WEBSITE: minecraftpocketedition.wikia.com
you so stupid
this is real i keep seeing explosions and a giant sand cave carved in sand
DUDE, Herobrine went to my world twice. Number 1: I was doing a youtube video about Plug for Mcpe then I made a new world in survival, I was playing without wifi and no one else was on the world, a minute later I saw a person fall from the sky but I didn't see his eyes.I quit to title deleted the youtube video and world. Number 2: I was continuing my survive a seed on survival and I was making my house suddenly through the wall I heard someone die and I was by myself and I thought to my self "OH NO! HEROBRINE JOINED MY WORLD AGAIN! I THINK THE SHEEP IS HEROBRINE" When i heard a person dieing there was a sheep then the sheep went silent then BOOM! the sheep is baaing again but I still went to that world cause I'm not reseting all the hard work I did in that World!
DONE herobrine is a player who can join anyones world over the wifi or not. I bet he hacked the game then when he presses play there are a bunch of worlds in blue.
Rosie, post some pictures please, I am quite interested to test your new theory/story
I hope it works!
I hope you will try again, I will post pictures if you still do not believe me
what are the signs that say Herobrine struck your world?
Underground library and the fake wall were my signs, maybe yours will differ
Okay, I had herobrine on my ipad in the last update. No joke. He was there and he fought me. Herobrine is real, but was removed. Now he no longer seems to work with the new update.

Screening and awareness contribute to fewer prostate cancer deaths
Fewer men are being diagnosed with and dying from prostate cancer these days. While that is due in part to widespread awareness and better treatment, it is also the result of more judicious screening. Learn more here from urologist Jay Raman, M.D.
Please mark your calendars now for the Free Prostate Screening event! This year's event will be held on September 21, 2015. Please check back for further information!

Is it possible to recover memory lost from w3wp.exe? I thought a session.abandon() should clear up the resources like that? The thing is I have a web application, certain pages make w3wp.exe grow significantly. Like from 40 MB to 400 MB. Now I am going to optimize my code defiantly to reduce this, however for what ever amount the w3wp.exe grows, is there no way to recover the lost memory even when the user has logged out and closed the browser?
I know this worker process will recycle after 30 minutes (default) of idle use, but what if there is no idle use-age for a long time and the worker process still has that portion of memory, it just keeps on growing? Any thoughts people?

United States - Last active: 14 days ago - Tests: 2
If you want to create a trading system, run a statistical analysis, develop a pricing model, build a financial GUI, or find a pattern in a sea of data, I may be the guy to help. I work primarily in MATLAB, C#, and Python. On the finance side, I'm a CAIA Charterholder, with an Economics degree and experience at McKinsey & Company. On the technical side, I hold degrees (with honors) in Engineering, and worked at a number of California tech companies through the 1990's and early 2000's. Since 2008 I've focused my work in the field of computational finance. Recent clients have included: a Swiss proprietary trading desk (Energy Futures), a Canadian hedge fund (Currencies), a US asset management firm (Equities & Bonds), a US portfolio consulting firm, a US aircraft manufacturing operation, and several others. For those clients I have developed, backtested, and deployed alpha-seeking trading strategies, automated execution algorithms, portfolio optimization models, user-friendly GUI tools. Techniques have included machine learning algorithms, classifiers, feature detectors, digital filters, matrix-based models, and concepts borrowed from detection theory and signal processing, along with various technical analysis indicators. I've worked with many financial platforms and data feeds: Deltix QuantOffice (C#), CQG API, Bloomberg, Interactive Brokers API, MultiCharts (PowerLanguage), MultiCharts.NET (C#), TradeStation (EasyLanguage), FIX (HotspotFx), ITCH (HotspotFx), etc. I can integrate other systems with MATLAB or Excel where there's an advantage. I've created C/C++ .mex files, VBA macros, Java/MATLAB integration, MATLAB/Excel integration. I've been programming in MATLAB since 1990, and can sometimes get it to do things that others can't. I can also translate or port a MATLAB application to other languages, especially Python or C#. I'm located in Southern California. For clients located within 2 hours, I can drive to meet you (sometimes same day, schedule permitting). I'm also happy to work remotely. I'm a US Citizen and have held a security clearance, though it is no longer active. The foundation of every successful project is good communication. If you have a project that needs to be done well, then let's communicate!

I'm just a bit shy until I get to know you and find it slightly difficult writing about myself but will give it a try! I enjoy all types of music especially paired with a nice glass of wine. Live Concerts at the Greek Theatre (during their season) and other venues are my passion. Don't have much time for cooking.... so I end up eating out most of the time which is fine.... but that would be so much nicer with someone special to join me. I especially enjoy seeing that "smile" when someone is having a good time!! I go to the gym regularly and also enjoy a weekly yoga class - along with a cardio workout 3 - 4 times a week. I really work at staying in shape and eating healthy. I love to travel.....Europe - Scandinavia, France and England are my favorite destinations and I have been lucky to have visited most parts by train and car. I have a best friend in the clothing business who helps me stay reasonably stylish.... Lastly, I enjoy staying involved with Children's Charities..... I am a co-sponsor of The Ronald McDonald Camp for Goodtimes Holiday (Christmas) Party at Warner Brothers every year for kids with cancer .... I'll post a picture of me with Ronald at that event last December. Hope to hear from you.... I will be happy to answer any other questions if you contact me! Like most others, I'm looking to connect with a nice girl.

SourceForge, the code repository site owned by Slashdot Media, has apparently seized control of the account hosting GIMP for Windows on the service, according to e-mails and discussions amongst members of the GIMP community—locking out GIMP's lead Windows developer. And now anyone downloading the Windows version of the open source image editing tool from SourceForge gets the software wrapped in an installer replete with advertisements.
PPT is a _presentation_ tool, not something to run meetings.Its great to summarize stuff and it is obviously not made to show complexity (as presentations are about making the subject easy enough to understand for people not strongly involved in the topic).
it seems the usage of the word "organ" is even more watered down in the english language than the use of the -gate postfix.
Organs are defined by their way of operation which works by blowing air into pipes of different length to make a sound. What they built could be best described as an electro-mechanical keyboard (if it even has keys)
Get a Cherry MX Board 3.0, its 60€ and you can get whatever switches you want. No stupid lights, no useless macro keys, just a pure keyboard with awesome feel.

At the heart of it, kernel development seems to always have been very YAGNI and agile, while all others were thinking about great concepts and not producing any real-life results.
I mean seriously, how hard is it to not show who wrote the paper to the reviewer? Its none of his business anyhow when he should rate the contents of a paper, and on the contrary can induce a huge bias (not only for gender reasons)
I am pretty sure, both trains and busses have lower footprints, esp. if you consider that its trivial to run trains from renewable sources (as they normally run on electricity). Also the study probably forgets to include the fuel it takes me to get to the airport, which is often a considerable amount (eg. for me it would mean driving nearly 80km per direction).

Former Fighting Sioux All-American forward Matt Frattin has been in beast mode during the Toronto Marlies run through the Western Conference Finals series against the Oklahoma City Barons. In today's game, Frattin scored his seventh and eighth goal of the Calder Cup Playoffs that leads the AHL.
Frattin's second goal of the game was the game winning goal for the Marlies and I would classify that goal as a thing of beauty - your classic toe drag goal that was shot from the top of the face-off circles that blew by the Barons goalie Yann Danis.
Former Fighting Sioux forward Chris VandeVelde has a goal in the losing effort for the Oklahoma City Barons, VandeVelde now has five goals during the Calder Cup playoffs.

Arizona Diamondbacks
Updated Jun 25, 2013 - 12:05 pm
Arizona Diamondbacks reinstate Aaron Hill from DL
The Arizona Diamondbacks' offense is set to receive a boost as Aaron Hill rejoins the fold.
The team announced it reinstated the second baseman from the 15-day DL Tuesday after he played six rehab games for Triple-A Reno, where he hit .375.
Hill, 31, was batting .306 with two home runs and six RBI in 10 games for the D-backs before suffering a broken hand due to an errant pitch from Pittsburgh's James McDonald on April 9. He last appeared for the D-backs on April 14 against the Dodgers.
To make room for Hill, the D-backs optioned pitcher Joe Paterson to Reno.

This invention relates to methods and structures for power conservation in wireless devices.
Wireless electronic devices that communicate with wireless networks are becoming increasing popular to avoid the limitations and costs associated with wired, mechanically connected, networks. Wireless devices have network interface cards that are continuously powered and connect to the wireless network. However, different wireless standards/technologies require a specific network interface card that supports the wireless standard/technology of the wireless network in which the wireless electronic device is located. With the freedom of wireless devices, it is desired that the devices be mobile and portable. Of course mobile devices must have a power supply, typically, a battery. A battery has a limited supply of electrical energy and must be replaced or recharged as the battery runs out of stored energy. Accordingly, there is a limit to how long a wireless electronic device running on a battery can be used before it must be replaced or recharged. Users of wireless electronic devices at times find it inconvenient to stop using the wireless device to replace or recharge the battery. Moreover, the use of disposable batteries can be prohibitive due to cost and environmental concerns. The use of rechargeable batteries in some wireless devices require specially adapted plug-ins or transformers to recharge the battery. The users of such device must carry the plug-in or the transformer to recharge the battery. As a result, there is a need to conserve power in wireless devices to lengthen use time between replacing or recharging the battery.
In the following description of some embodiments of the present invention, reference is made to the accompanying drawings which form a part hereof, and in which are shown, by way of illustration, specific embodiments of the present invention which may be practiced. In the drawings, like numerals describe substantially similar components throughout the several views. These embodiments are described in sufficient detail to enable those skilled in the art to practice the embodiments of the present invention. Other embodiments of the invention may be utilized and structural, logical, and electrical changes may be made without departing from the scope. The following detailed description is not to be taken in a limiting sense, and the scope of the claimed embodiments of the present invention is defined only by the appended claims, along with the full scope of equivalents to which such claims are entitled.
The user devices 30, 32, 34 include, in various embodiments of the invention, any of a wide variety of different digital data handling devices including, for example, laptop, palmtop, and/or desktop computers; personal digital assistants (PDA); pagers; and/or other electronic communication equipment. The number of user devices that can be supported by a single base-station 12 or 16 varies from system to system.
The user devices 30, 32, 34 each include wireless transceiver functionality that is capable of establishing and maintaining a wireless communication link with a corresponding base-station 12 or 16. The wireless transceiver functionality will often comply with one or more wireless networking standards or technologies. Some common wireless networking standards/technologies include, for example: Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.11 standards such as IEEE 802.11a, b, g, . . . , n; IEEE 802.15; IEEE 802.2; and Bluetooth specification. For more information regarding some of the wireless networking standards/technologies mentioned above, please refer to "IEEE Standards for Information Technology—Telecommunications and Information Exchange between Systems—Local and Metropolitan Area Network—Specific Requirements—Part 11: Wireless LAN Medium Access Control (MAC) and Physical Layer (PHY), ISO/IEC 8802-11: 1999" and "Bluetooth System Specification, Bluetooth Special Interest Group, Ver. 1.1, March 2001", and related amendments. Other standards/technologies include HomeRF™ (please refer to "HomeRF Specification Home RF", Jul. 1, 2002); HiperLAN (please refer to "Doc. No. EN 301 811-1-1 Ver. 1.1.1", Jan. 1, 2001, European Telecommunications Standards Institute); Ultrawideband; wireless asynchronous transfer mode (WATM); digital enhanced cordless telecommunications (DECT); Wireless Universal Serial Bus (USB); Wireless IEEE 1394; Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), General Packet Radio Service ("GPRS", please refer to Doc. No. EN 301 113 V6.1.1 (1998-11), European Telecommunications Standards Institute) and others. A further standard/technology is wireless personal area network (PAN). A wireless PAN is a short-distance wireless network specifically designed to support portable and mobile computing devices such as PCs, PDAs, wireless printers and storage devices, cell phones, pagers, set-top boxes, and a variety of consumer electronics equipment in an ad hoc network. Bluetooth is an example of a wireless PAN. A further standard/technology is IEEE 802.16 wireless metropolitan area network (WMAN), see IEEE Std. 802.16-2001 IEEE Standard for Local and Metropolitan area networks Part 16: Air Interface for Fixed Broadband Wireless Access Systems. A further standard/technology is a wireless wide area network (WWAN). It will also be appreciated that wireless technologies that have been principally adopted in mobile telephone devices, such as CDMA, 3G and eventually 4G cellular standards are used in embodiments of the present invention. All publications listed herein are incorporated by reference for any purpose. Accordingly, the embodiments of the present invention are adaptable to a variety of wireless standards/technologies.
One or more of the user devices 30, 32, 34 include, in an embodiment, a wireless network interface card (NIC) (e.g., an 802.11b NIC, etc.) that is installed within an appropriate input/output port of the device. Similarly, one or more of the user devices 30, 32, 34 include, in an embodiment, wireless network components that are directly integrated within the device, i.e., without using an add-on card or board. An antenna, other radiating device, or transducer will also typically be provided within user device 30, 32, 34. In one implementation, radio frequency (RF) energy is used to provide wireless communication between each user device and a corresponding access point. It should be appreciated, however, that other forms of wireless signaling (e.g., infrared signaling, etc.) may alternatively be used.
Wireless NICs 43 and 45 include an antenna 51 and 52, a transceiver 53 and 54 and a controller 55 and 56. Wireless NICs 43 and 45 are, in an embodiment, removably coupled to the host 47 at an input/output (I/O) port thereof. Examples of I/O ports include, but are not limited to an expansion slot or PCMCIA slot. Alternatively, the functionality of the wireless NICs 43, 45 are made an integral part of the user device 30. That is, the NIC functions are implemented within the hardware and encoded software within device 30 and not as an add-on card or board. The first NIC 43 operates accordingly to a first wireless networking standard/technology. The second NIC 45 operates accordingly to a second wireless networking standard/technology different than the first wireless networking standard/technology. For example, the first NIC operates according to an IEEE 802.X standard (such as IEEE 802.11a, b, g, . . . , 802.2, etc.) and the second NIC operates according to General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) standard. The user device 30 supporting a plurality of different wireless networking standards/technologies results in a multi-homed device that can communicate with a LAN or other network through a variety of different standards/technologies. User device 30 further includes a power source, and in the embodiment of the user device 30 being mobile the power source is a battery 60. The battery 60 is in electrical communication with NICs 43 and 45, host 47, and user I/O 49 to provide electrical power thereto. It should be appreciated that the individual blocks illustrated in
The transceiver 51 within the NIC 43 is operative for performing conventional radio frequency (RF) receiver and transmitter functions for the user device 30. That is, during a transmit operation, the transceiver 53 will convert baseband information from the controller 55 into a RF transmit signal for delivery into the wireless channel 35 via antenna 51. During a receive operation, the transceiver 53 will process a RF signal received from the wireless channel 35 by antenna 51 to extract baseband information therefrom. Although illustrated as a single unit, the transceiver 53 may be implemented as separate transmitter and receiver units. Appropriate duplexer functionality may also be provided to allow the transmit and receive functions to share a common antenna 51. In an alternative approach, separate transmit and receive antennas are provided within the wireless NIC 43. The transceiver 39 within the wireless base-station 12 is similar in function to the transceiver 53 of the wireless NIC 43 described above. In at least one implementation, the transceiver 39 includes multiple independent transmit/receive channels to support simultaneous wireless communication with multiple remote user devices. The transceiver 39 while being able to communicate with multiple remote user devices typically uses only a single wireless networking standard/technology and accordingly communicates with wireless NIC 43.
Wireless NICs 43 and 45 each in operation continuously scan for a signal from a wireless base-station 12 and 16, such as access points. This continuous scanning and transmission of signals required to locate and stay connected to an electronic system, such as a wired LAN and a wireless LAN, through a base-station consumes a large amount of power. This is a problem for battery powered user device 30. It is desirable to have a plurality of different wireless NICs in a user device so that the user may connect to a plurality of different networks through a plurality of different wireless networking standards/technologies, thus increasing the likelihood that a user can find a wireless location (sometimes referred to as a "hot spot") to use wireless device 30. However, continuously powering a plurality of continuously scanning and transmitting wireless NICs 43 and 45 further increases power consumption and undesirably drains the battery 60. The user device 30 includes a system and a method for selectively powering down or turning off unused NICs to preserve power while maintaining connectivity between user device 30 and the base-station 12. This will prolong the life of battery 60 while providing desired wireless connectivity between the user device 30 and base-station 12 and electronic system 14.
The embodiments of the present invention described herein provide methods and systems to conserve power in multi-homed user devices 30, 32, or 34. The policy manager 67 selects the best connection between a network adapter and a base-station 12, 16 as specified by the user. In an embodiment the policy manager 67 selects the best wireless network adapter 43 or 45; 53 1, 53 2, 53 3 and a base-station 12, 16 as specified by the user. The sensing driver 65 continuously senses the state of the network adapters. If an adapter's connection is dropped or if a more preferred adapter becomes available, then the sensing driver 65 informs the policy manager 67. The policy manager 67 can then activate the next preferred network adapter if the most preferred connection is dropped. The policy manager 67 can also activate the more preferred network adapter if the more network adapter becomes available.
While the above described embodiment of the invention refers to a single wireless network adapter being selected or activated, it will be understood that a plurality of the most preferred network adapters can operate at the same time, i.e., simultaneous multi-homed. Specifically, the policy manager 67 and activate at least two NICs 43 and 45 simultaneously to connect to a same network or two separate networks. The number and type of network adapters to activate at once can be programmed and stored in the policy manager.
The above describes embodiments of the present invention with regard to wireless systems. One embodiment of wireless systems includes WLAN technology. Other embodiments of the present invention can for use with other wireless technologies as described herein. Moreover, one of skill in the art will recognize how the present invention is adapted to other wireless technologies not mentioned herein to provide power conservation.
Further provided by various embodiments are methods and apparatus to reduce power dissipation within an electronic system, which includes multiple functional units that are used by a processor to execute software instructions. Embodiments of the invention can be used in portable and non-portable systems. Within portable systems (e.g., mobile telephones, laptop computers, personal data assistants, pagers, etc.), embodiments of the invention can be used to extend battery life by reducing power consumption and dissipation.
Although specific embodiments have been described and illustrated herein, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, having the benefit of the present disclosure, that any arrangement which is intended to achieve the same purpose may be substituted for a specific embodiment shown. This application is intended to cover any adaptations or variations of the present invention. Therefore, it is intended that this invention be limited only by the claims and the equivalents thereof.

New Medical Therapies
Following are the most recent results for new drug therapies currently in clinical trials worldwide. Results
are also searchable by therapeutic area beginning with the most recent updates.
Avalanche Biotechnologies reported results
of a phase IIa study of AVA-101 for wet age-related
macular degeneration (wet AMD). The
study enrolled 32 subjects aged 55 or older with
wet AMD and randomized them to an
AVA-101 treatment group (n=21) or a control
group (n=11). Subjects in both groups received
two ranibizumab injections at day zero and
week four, and ranibizumab rescue therapy
was allowed according to pre-specified criteria
beginning at week eight. In the study, best
corrected visual acuity (BCVA) mean change
from baseline showed a difference of 11.5 letters
between the treatment (+2.2 letters) and control
(-9.3 letters) groups (95% CI, 2.3-20.7 letters).
Additionally, a significant number of AVA-101
treated subjects (42.9%) improved or maintained
stable vision with two or fewer rescue
injections compared with subjects in the control
group (9.1%). Importantly, BCVA improvement
of at least 10 letters with two or fewer rescue
injections was observed in 23.8% of treated
subjects and 0% of subjects in the control group.
No serious adverse events related to AVA-101
were observed. These data will help inform the
design of Avalanche's phase IIb AVA-101 study,
which the company plans to conduct at multiple
centers in the U.S. later this year.
Boehringer Ingelheim issued results of a
phase III study of afatinib v. erlotinib in patients
with advanced squamous cell carcinoma (SCC)
of the lung, progressing after treatment with
first-line chemotherapy. Treatment with afatinib
significantly reduced the risk of death by 19%,
extending the survival of patients to a median
of 7.9 months compared to 6.8 months on
erlotinib. Significantly more patients treated with
afatinib were still alive at one year compared to
those treated with erlotinib (36.4 v. 28.2%). The
updated analysis of PFS confirmed a significant
reduction in the risk of cancer progression by
19% in patients treated with afatinib compared
with erlotinib. The delay in cancer progression
seen with afatinib treatment was accompanied
by improved control of cancer-related symptoms:
a higher proportion of patients treated
with afatinib reported improvement in cough
(43.4 v. 35.2%), shortness of breath (51.3 v.
44.1%) and overall well-being/quality-of-life
(35.7 v. 28.3%) compared with erlotinib. The rate
of severe adverse events was similar between
afatinib and erlotinib treatment arms (57.1 v.
57.5%). Afatinib is approved in more than 50
countries for the first-line treatment of distinct
types of EGFR mutation-positive NSCLC. Afatinib
is not approved for use in patients with SCC of
the lung. The complete results from this study
will be the basis for global regulatory submissions
later this year.
Genentech released results of a phase II study
of Perjeta (pertuzumab) in combination with
Herceptin (trastuzumab) and docetaxel
chemotherapy for HER2-positive early breast
cancer (eBC). The randomized, multicenter,
international study enrolled 417 people with
newly diagnosed HER2-positive, operable, locally
advanced or inflammatory eBC. Participants
were randomized to one of four study arms
and received four cycles (12 weeks) of neoadjuvant
treatment followed by surgery and a
year of adjuvant treatment with Herceptin plus
chemotherapy. Both progression-free survival
(PFS) and disease-free survival (DFS) were evaluated
at three years. The results suggested that
people who received the Perjeta regimen prior
to surgery were 31% less likely to experience
disease worsening, recurrence or death (PFS
HR=0.69; 95% CI, 0.34–1.40) compared to those
who received Herceptin and chemotherapy.
People treated with the Perjeta regimen also
were 40% less likely to experience disease recurrence
or death (DFS HR=0.60; 95% CI, 0.28–1.27).
The results suggested that people who achieved
pathological complete response (pCR; no tumor
tissue detectable at the time of surgery in the affected
breast and local lymph nodes) were more
likely across all arms of the study to be alive and
disease-free at three years (PFS HR=0.54; 95% CI,
0.29–1.00; DFS HR=0.68; 95% CI, 0.36–1.26). It
previously was reported that the Perjeta regimen
significantly increased the number of people
who achieved pCR compared to Herceptin and
docetaxel chemotherapy (39.3% v. 21.5%). In
2013, the FDA granted accelerated approval of
the Perjeta regimen for neoadjuvant treatment
in people with high-risk, HER2-positive eBC.
Roche recently submitted a MAA to the EMA for
the Perjeta regimen as a neoadjuvant treatment
for people with HER2-positive eBC.
Novartis issued results of two phase IIIb studies
of Cosentyx (secukinumab) for psoriasis of
the palms, soles of feet and nails. Both studies
were double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled,
parallel-group studies. GESTURE enrolled
205 subjects with moderate to severe nonpustular
palmoplantar psoriasis randomized
1:1:1 to receive either Cosentyx 300mg, Cosentyx
150mg or placebo subcutaneously for 76 weeks.
TRANSFIGURE enrolled 198 patients with chronic
moderate to severe plaque psoriasis, including
significant nail involvement, randomized 1:1:1 to
receive either Cosentyx 300mg, Cosentyx 150mg
or placebo subcutaneously up to week 76. In
GESTURE, Cosentyx was superior to placebo at
week 16 in achieving clear or almost clear palms
and soles as assessed using the Palmoplantar
Investigator's Global Assessment (ppIGA) (33.3%
Cosentyx 300mg [P<0.0001], 22.1% Cosentyx
150mg [P<0.001], 1.5% placebo). Similarly, in
TRANSFIGURE, Cosentyx was superior to placebo
at week 16, as assessed by mean improvement
(decrease) in the fingernail NAil Psoriasis Severity
Index (NAPSI) compared to baseline (-45.3%
Cosentyx 300mg [P<0.0001], -37.9% Cosentyx
150mg [P<0.0001], -10.8% placebo). Cosentyx
is approved by the FDA for moderate to severe
plaque psoriasis in adults.

Could it be that Mitt Romney is correct from a strategic point of view to tell us little about what he'd do as president?

A group of right-wing extremists would have the American public believe it is easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of a market society.
A serious debate on "constitutional issues" might reveal our fundamental differences: Republican extremists would use the Supreme Court to prohibit every social and political advance since before the Civil War.

American fanatics tend to self-destruct. Today's right-wing nihilists, led by Elizabeth Cheney, William Kristol and Glenn Beck, are crossing that threshold of decency.
When Elizabeth Cheney, William Kristol and their media friends slander Justice Department attorneys as the "al-Qaida 7" and malign the "Department of Jihad," they are engaging in the smear tactics that became synonymous with Joseph McCarthy.
The former vice president's ambitious daughter has in her hand a list of nine Justice Department lawyers whose "values" she has the gall to question. She ought to spend the time examining her own principles, if she can find them.
After a brief hiatus, which happened to coincide with the last phase of the presidential campaign season, the Project for a New American Century's Web site is back up and running, thanks to Bill Kristol and his chums at the neocon think tank.
The New York Times' conservative stalwart William Kristol should receive some kind of award for being wrong with such baffling consistency while still retaining his job. Not only has he been credited (if that's the right word) with steering John McCain toward picking Sarah Palin and waving his proverbial pompoms for the Iraq invasion, but he has just let fly with another doozy in his latest column.
Flickr / BohPhoto
William Kristol was becoming apoplectic, Hillary Clinton was sounding optimistic, and the McCain campaign was being perhaps a tad unrealistic—or so read Monday's political barometer as an ABC/Washington Post poll indicated that the Obama campaign had taken a 10-point lead in the presidential race.
The "Daily Show" host challenges proto-hawk and champion name-caller William Kristol on the vitriol of Iraq war enthusiasts: "But you said Sunni and Shia would get along. You've said a lot of things that, if we went back and picked through, I could say to you—should I call you terrible names? No, of course not. You're just a simple fellow who devised a plan that the president executed. ... "
"The Colbert Report" host achieves what few traditional media interviewers can do: make neocon leader William Kristol stammer and sweat about his support for the Iraq invasion.
