How did three Danes end up being tortured in Lebanon?
At 15 Omar went to Guantanamo. Here's his story
Evan Hill | 14 Jun 2012 09:07 GMT | Politics, Egypt
Two legal cases to be heard on Thursday before Egypt's Supreme Constitutional Court are threatening to turn the country's entire post-revolution political process on its head just two days before the election of a new president.
Both trace back to a fundamental debate, one that began when the first licks of flame began to devour the headquarters of Hosni Mubarak's National Democratic Party on January 28: should the former regime ever again be allowed to participate in politics?
On one hand, there is the candidacy of Ahmed Shafiq, Mubarak's last prime minister, who was voted into the June 16-17 runoff as the second-place finisher, much to the dismay of the revolutionaries who thought their 18-day revolt had ushered his ilk into the history books.
Egypt's Islamist-dominated parliament, alarmed at Shafiq and others' candidacies, passed a law specifically aimed at banning men with his controversial resume from politics, and that law is now under review.
And then there is parliament itself, and the confusing system that governed its election. Egypt's military rulers, under pressure from those who feared a return of wealthy ex-regime power brokers, hastily changed the election law to let parties compete for the independent seats the old guard were thought to be targeting. The court will now have to decide whether that decision unfairly discriminated against political independents.
Theoretically, the court could force Egypt to rerun both its parliamentary and presidential elections, raising the spectre of a return to the past 16 months of violent protest and disorder. No matter which route the court takes, many will be angry.
Perhaps the biggest hope for Egypt's revolutionaries, leftists and progressives - not to mention supporters of Muslim Brotherhood runoff candidate Mohammed Morsi - is that Shafiq will be disqualified.
Their hope rests upon the Political Isolation Law, passed by parliament and enacted by the country's ruling military council in April just one month before the presidential election. The law bars anyone who served in a top position during the last 10 years of the Mubarak administration from holding public office for the next decade.
The law banned Shafiq from the race, but the day after it was passed, Shafiq appealed to the presidential election commission and was immediately reinstated. The commission then referred the law to the Supreme Constitutional Court for review.
The court could rule on procedural grounds and decide the commission did not have the power to send the law for review, in which case the law stands and Shafiq is disqualified. Or it could rule on the merits of the law.
If the court wants to rule on the merits of political isolation, analysts believe it is likely to strike it down, as it unfairly targets certain individuals - high-ranking former regime members. Additionally, three members of the presidential election commission that allowed Shafiq back into the race also hold seats on the court, including the court's current and incoming presidents, making many see a reversal as unlikely.
If the court rejects the commission's referral or decides political isolation is constitutional and Shafiq is disqualified, the consequences for the presidential race are unknown. One member of the commission has said that the race would become a simple yes or no vote on Morsi, the Brotherhood's candidate, but the law is unclear, and Shafiq's disqualification could require an entirely new election.
When Egypt's parliamentary elections ended in January, the results signaled the ascent of the country's long oppressed and underground Islamist movements - the Salafis and the Muslim Brotherhood. Now, the Supreme Constitutional Court could dissolve parliament itself, likely undoing their powerful two-thirds majority.
In February, Egypt's State Council, a judicial body tasked with overseeing disputes when the government is a party, referred the law that governed the parliamentary election to the Supreme Constitutional Court. Since two-thirds of the seats were meant to be filled by candidates running on political party lists and the other third by independent individuals, the argument went that the election's split system unfairly discriminated against independents.
This point of view was actually upheld by the court twice under the Mubarak regime, in 1987 and 1990. Both times, the court dissolved parliament. But the principle of equality between independents and political parties is still hazy and not defined in the existing post-revolution constitution, leaving room for maneuver.
If the court rules that the system was unconstitutional, it could require a rerun of only the one-third of seats that were meant for independents, or it could require the whole election to be held again. Either way, the more important question is whether the parliament's single most important task, choosing the body that will write the constitution, will remain.
Parliament chose that body at the last second, on Wednesday, and court precedent has held that decisions by dissolved parliaments still stand. But since Egypt's post-revolution constitution is at stake, there will likely be strong opposition to the constitutional assembly, especially from liberals and secularists who already say the body is stacked with Islamists and their sympathisers.
If nothing changes - Shafiq remains in the race and parliament continues with its work - Egypt's transition may remain steady, but revolutionaries and the Brotherhood will be deeply displeased that a member of Mubarak's regime was allowed to compete for the presidency. If everything changes - Shafiq is disqualified and parliament dissolved - the revolutionaries will say a victory was scored, but Egypt's future remains in its cloud of confusion.

The reason that it is not a useless question is that you saying, "a site that has 51 Reviews/Benchmarks listed" exists doesn't tell me anything about how much you have actually looked at the numbers (GTX480 Reviews/Benchmarks) and read the reviews. The reviews are written by experts.
You're not more knowledgeable than the professional experts that write the GTX480 Reviews are you?
To continue on the question, if you had said you Bookmarked say, 10, 15, or maybe even 20, GTX480 Reviews/Benchmarks, I could understand just how odd it is that you think the GTX480 is loosing so much to the HD5970. Because it is not. And you may not have looked at enough Benchmarks to realize it.
I think looking at 10, GTX480 Reviews/Benchmarks, and studying them is an acceptable number. But if you don't read and study at least ten of them you can easily be unaware of the facts.
Now with that said, I will tell you that I have read 13, GTX480 Reviews/Benchmarks and I plan to collect many many more. Before I bought my GTX295 last year I read through and studied over 10 GTX295 Reviews/Benchmarks. And ended up with with a grand total 23.
Here's a post I made on 01-21-2009 with all 23, GTX295 Reviews/Benchmarks:
So, if you want to really prove that what you're saying is true, you need the numbers to back it up. Ever heard of the saying, "It ain't braggin' if you can back it up ...period"?
Show some numbers and prove what you're claiming.
Because the numbers I'm looking at include the HD5970 loosing to the GTX480 in not just one Benchmark but several. And after the driver updates it's only going to get worse for the HD5970 and NOT better.
You're complete waste of time. It is you who has a HUGE problem to get it that ATI has the fastest card on the market. It is you who needs to read more GTX 480 reviews not me. Read one more time what I said:
Originally Posted by

I only did read few reviews on the
major sites
and few others "Conclusion
" only.
There is no need for me to read more, have no time for that.
Every site concluded that GTX 480 has the fastest GPU no argument about that
Did not see any site that concluded GTX 480 is the
fastest Graphic Card
I think
even some of the biggest NVIDIA shills would have hard time to argue that
, so I don't know where are you coming from.
I hope this is end of the argument at least for me.
Your link to 23, GTX295 Reviews/Benchmarks you posted on 01-21-2009 is completely irrelevant to the subject, even more so since I said myself in my
first post
this thread that the GTX295
the fastest card on the market,also
I believe the subject here is HD 5870 vs GTX 480 buying decision. If the GTX 480 was on average faster than the HD 5970, I would get one as soon as available, don't know how many times I need to say it.
I already said that few times even few months ago when some NVIDIA shills and fanboys predicted that the GTX 480 is going to be 50% faster than the HD 5870. But I'm sure not going to downgrade to GTX 480, how hard is it for you to get it? If you don't see it as downgrade that is your problem. Actually not since you don't need to deal with it.
Right now my ONLY upgrade option if I wanted to go NVIDIA would be GTX 480 SLI = $1000 plus tax, for SLI. I
also need water cooling for the SLI about another $500 or at least new mobo in order to run the cards on slot 1 and 3, might even need both mobo and water-cooling. I also would not downgrade the mobo and the ASUS Rampage III is going to cost at least $400.
I don't care about your drivers SPECULATION about how faster the GTX 480 is going to get. I already did answer it
If the GTX 480 ever becomes worthy upgrade to my HD 5970 I sure will deal with it at that time.
If i did listen to all the fanboys SPECULATIONS how fast the GTX 480 is going to be and coming out just about every month since October last year, I would have never bought the HD 5970.

Album Summary
Notes & Reviews:
Thanks to the generous patronage of the Princess Claudia Ruspoli, this third volume of George Frideric Handel's Complete Cantatas is now available to the public. This unique and prestigious project offers the great, large-scale Italian Cantata Aminta & Fillide, written by the young Handel in Rome, and tells the story of a shepherd boy who tries to win the love of a reluctant nymph.
International Record Review, January 2012
True and van Veldhoven complement each other in their virtuosity as their voices intertwine, and the difference in their vocal colouring adds to the interest...The blots on the acoustical landscape did not prove insurmountable, the performances are admirable, the music delightful.

by Baba Zula
Released: Apr 2011
Label: Doublemoon Records
The Turkish dubsters have always had a trippy vibe to their folk-classical-jam-rock sound. But Gecekondu sounds positively gone. Long, slow, stretched out grooves float along like they were created on a cloud (or maybe in a cloud of hookah smoke). Nine-minute meanderings like "Hayde Hayde" would be asking a lot, if they weren't so hauntingly beautiful. And sandwiching the super-epic jams amid more succinct cuts that take up patchworked folk ("Le Furet dans la Foret en Feu") as easily as they do dubbed-out trance ("Temptation") proves that Baba Zula's brain cells are fully functioning.

MONTREAL, QC - JUNE 27: General Manager and President Glen Sather of the New York Rangers (C) works at the draft table during the 2009 NHL Entry Draft at the Bell Centre on June 27, 2009 in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. (Photo by Bruce Bennett/Getty Images)
Rangers general manager Glen Sather is still having a tough time dealing with his top-seeded club's elimination in the Eastern Conference finals. Sather, the architect of the Edmonton Oilers' dynasty teams in the 1980s, is still looking to build a champion in New York. He saw the Rangers reach the NHL final four, but they were knocked out in six games by the New Jersey Devils - their division and area rival. ''We just got knocked out a couple of days ago,'' said Wednesday at the NHL general managers meeting before the opener of the Stanley Cup finals. ''It's tough enough to go to bed at night and get up the next morning. You've got to adjust. It's like having a death in the family.''

Farmhouse Garden Furniture
Farmhouse outdoor furniture is also known as rustic outdoor furniture and extends back towards the the past of farms and country living. It features a style all of its own and is quite distinctive. Generally, farmhouse garden furniture is coarse, massive and heavy. It is sometimes roughly hewn, but that's not at all times the case although it is never carved in great detail. Farmhouse patio furniture is built to last.
Fitness equipment
Farmhouse patio furniture includes the entire array of outdoor furniture such as tables, chairs, benches, gazebos and arbours. This rustic patio and garden furniture is generally manufactured from local wood, but can be also manufactured from iron.
To go with the garden furniture, another highlight is indoor furniture inside the farmhouse style even though this might be a little finer, a little less heavy so it could be moved around for cleaning purposes.
Farmhouse outdoor furniture is normally constructed from local hardwood including oak, cherry, maple, mahogany, teak or beech, but in fact anything that is always to hand. Softwood, such as pine, will be less, but it will not normally last as long as hardwood even though it is maintained habitually so when it must be.
Hardwood furniture may be stained, oiled or varnished, though it is normally best to just rub linseed oil to the natural timber. A bit of staining will help bring out the charming natural graining inside the wood.
Softwood patio and garden furniture is generally filled with knots which many people find unsightly. If this is the way you think, then you can provide the furniture three coats of paint in order to safeguard it.
You can definitely, the knots do not concern yourself you, you can stain and varnish it instead. In any event, all farmhouse garden furniture needs to be maintained annually inside the autumn; that's whilst the sun is no longer at its hottest and before the rain and winter emerge. The difficulty with anything manufactured from any wood is rot.
Hardwood contains more natural oils than softwood therefore it is better able to safeguard itself, but all timber ceases producing these oils when you kill it by chopping it down. The oil at first glance is dried out by the sun which dry areas then suck some oil up from deeper inside itself, but the further inside must suck the oil from the less it could suck, meaning ultimately the exterior becomes dry then it will require in water.
When that occers, rot has emerge. Hardwood lasts a number of years before it gets to this wretched state, but softwood will perhaps last less than a year. This is the reason you need to seal the oil in and the water by helping cover their paint or varnish when it comes to softwood or replenish the oil by rubbing in linseed oil inside the demonstration of hardwood.
You might paint hardwood too in order to, but many people purchase hardwood farmhouse garden furniture as it features a beautiful grain and paint would only cover up that grain. Decent farmhouse garden furniture just isn't cheap, but it is attractive, difficult to steal and definately will keep going for a lifetime if cared for by a few hours maintenance annually.

Susan G. Komen for the Cure has backed down from its decision not to fund Planned Parenthood.
In a statement posted Friday morning on its website, Komen's founder and chief executive officer Nancy Brinkner said the organization was revising a rule that had earlier been used to disqualify Planned Parenthood from receiving a grant.
The original rule precluded grantees from getting funds if they were under federal investigation. Under the revised rule, the investigations must be "criminal and conclusive in nature and not political."
Komen's decision earlier in the week to defund Planned Parenthood had provoked a firestorm of outrage, including from many Jewish organizations that had earlier been partners and supporters of Komen, the world's foremost breast cancer charity.
Critics charged that Komen, led by a Texas Republican, had bowed to anti-abortion political pressure, a charge Brinkner had earlier denied and which she repeated in her Friday statement.
"We have been distressed at the presumption that the changes made to our funding criteria were done for political reasons or to specifically penalize Planned Parenthood," Brinkner said. "They were not. Our original desire was to fulfill our fiduciary duty to our donors by not funding grant applications made by organizations under investigation."

Monique Lhuillier Spring 2016 Bridal Collection
The collection draws inspiration from the fairy tale 'Alice in Wonderland'. Following Alice's path of fantasy and curiosity, the gowns transform into magical imaginations and beautiful enchantments. Each gown balances the line between modern allure and playful grandeur.
From embellished sheaths and embroidered trumpet silhouettes to glamorous voluminous gowns, each piece embodies a modern fantasy. Delicate embroidery, floral lace appliqués, layers of tulle and intricate embellishment bring a magical quality to each dress. While deep V- Necklines, cut outs and low back detailing add an element of sensuality to the collection.
Neutral shades of blush, honey, mist and sky blue complete this enchanting vision.

Tuesday was Primary Day, and New Yorkers went to the polls to pick their favorite Democrats (Eliot Spitzer and Andrew Cuomo, YES; Tom Suozzi and Mark Green, NO.). At Bryant Park, capital of the Republic of Fashion, we asked some citizens if they'd chosen a candidate that day.
Richie Rich
Did you get to vote today?
No, and I feel awful, hello!
What political issues are you interested in for New York?
I'd like to see public schools get a lot better. Teachers aren't treated the way they should be treated. The homeless issue is really bad; if people need help, we should reach out instead of ignoring them.
Sofia Coppola
Did you get to vote today?
Is today voting day? I guess that answers your question.
What political issues are you interested in for New York?
The education issue is a big thing for me. And the rat problem is a big deal for me. It's disgusting, and I think they're not doing anything about it. I'm particularly pissed about it.
Nicky Hilton

Did you get to vote today?
[Blank look] No. I don't really...I never like to comment about political stuff. I'm sorry. I have to go. I'm in the show.
Amanda Lepore
What laws would you create for fashion?
Well, certainly that you could wear white shoes everywhere!
Why was that guy pointing a hair dryer at your nipples when we came over?
I was here for a long time having my hair done. It was cold, and my nipples were hard and they were starting to hurt. Now they're starting to feel better with the blow-drying.

Yankees All Star second baseman, Robinson Cano, found himself at the wrong-end of some nasty rumors today. Dan Tordjman, a TV Reporter in Charlotte, NC, first reported on Twitter that Cano failed a Performance Enhancing Drug test and would face a suspension from MLB as early as Friday.
When asked about the rumors, Cano quickly shot down the allegations:
Cano has never before been linked to steroids, but it is not uncommon for superstars in today's game—Dominican-born players in specific—to be linked to PED's. Additionally, with the Melky Cabrera proven reports earlier this summer, Cano's name was bound to surface in steroid rumors eventually. Whether fair or not, that is the post-steroid era we live in today.

In most states, you don't need to file any additional paperwork other than your assumed business name to form a sole proprietorship. I wouldn't pay to use a web site to do it for you when you can do it yourself in a matter of minutes. You should be able to find the form on-line on either your secretary of state's web site or your county clerk's web site. Just print it, fill it out and mail it in with your payment. In a few weeks you should receive a confirmation of acceptance of the filing.
phanio | Contributor | 12/14/2010 - 3:17 am
Usually registering a name is as simple as filing an assumed name or DBA certificate with either your state or county offices. Not sure which to use in CT. But, your secretary of state's office should be able to help you with this - phone: (860) 509-6002 or email: email@example.com. In my state, the filing fee is only $25. You just file out one form, send in the money and it is done.

Archinect - News 2015-07-07T00:52:07-04:00 http://archinect.com/news/article/130483595/tokyo-will-stay-the-course-with-zaha-s-olympic-stadium Tokyo will stay the course with Zaha's Olympic stadium Amelia Taylor-Hochberg 2015-06-26T13:17:00-04:00 >2015-06-26T14:39:56-04:00
Two massive arches that form the backbone of the stadium's roof, a feature that critics blamed for raising construction costs, will remain part of the design.

When confronted with Zaha Hadid's too-big and too-costly design for the 2020 Olympic National Stadium, Tokyo officials decided to go ahead with the designs anyway – or else, add "too late" to that list of descriptors. Any additional major changes to the design (Hadid already scaled back the design after pushback from major Japanese architects) would delay construction too much. Now, construction on the stadium will begin in October of this year, and hopefully be finished by 2019.

Some background on Tokyo's 2020 Olympic National Stadium:

"There are two things we need in California: rain … and football," Carson Mayor Albert Robles said after the 3-0 vote. "And football is coming to Carson!"

After investing five years and $50 million in an attempt to bring an NFL team back to Los Angeles, AEG is abandoning plans for its Farmers Field football stadium downtown. The sports and entertainment conglomerate is no longer in discussions with the NFL or any teams about the project, company officials said Monday. [...] In recent weeks, competing stadium proposals in Inglewood and Carson, backed by NFL team owners, have overshadowed the AEG plan.

Prime Minister Shinzo Abe says he wants Japan to showcase its cutting-edge technology in the new national stadium being built for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics. Abe made the remark on Monday at a meeting with a study panel on the stadium. [...] Prime Minister Abe [...] said he wants to hear people in other countries calling the new stadium great. Some people have raised concerns about high maintenance costs for the new facility.

While some of that Japanese cutting-edge technology (for example 3D projection) will be found in the entertainment department, other features, like facial recognition, could enable ticketless entrance and serve security and counterterrorism efforts.

In the last 20 years, just one NFL stadium has been built solely through private funding. [...] Still, when it comes to getting the best deal out of an arena, leaving taxpayer money off the tab is only a good start. Studies have repeatedly shown that sports teams don't have the far-reaching economic impacts that one might assume, and experts have noted that stadiums aren't as catalytic as some franchise owners might tout.

The owner of the St. Louis Rams plans to build an NFL stadium in Inglewood, which could pave the way for the league's return to Los Angeles...Owner Stan Kroenke, who bought 60 acres adjacent to the Forum a year ago, has joined forces with the owners of the 238-acre Hollywood Park site, Stockbridge Capital Group. They plan to add an 80,000-seat NFL stadium and 6,000-seat performance venue to the already-massive development of retail, office, hotel and residential space...

"The announcement is the latest in more than a dozen stadium proposals that have come and gone in the meandering, two-decade effort to bring an NFL franchise back to the nation's second-largest media market. But Kroenke's move marks the first time an existing team owner has controlled a local site large enough for a stadium and parking."

"It's like creating a contemporary cathedral in some ways [...]" "Often the stadium is meant to become the pride of a city, a landmark object, and as such, a monument representing the latest achievements in architecture." Since ancient Greeks built the first Olympic stadium in fine white marble, the arena has been as much about inspiring awe, as staging competition. Today's architects must go even further.

In a young city predisposed to wrecking and rebuilding, impressive works of architecture can sometimes be discarded as effortlessly as last year's runway accessories. But Miami Marine Stadium, a bold structure on Biscayne Bay that sought to jolt the city into the future back in 1963, may prove a rare, stubborn exception. Abandoned and shuttered more than two decades ago, the Modernist stadium is in the midst of a turbulent, nearly seven-year effort by a nonprofit group [...].

Recent Harvard Graduate School of Design graduate Yaohua Wang finished his M.Arch program on a high note by winning the 2014 James Templeton Kelley Prize for Best M.Arch II Thesis for his project, "Salvaged Stadium". Although Wang doesn't win an award every single time for his projects, his intricate ideas have spurred some debate in the past.

Salvaged Stadium explores the notion of finding architecture's "hidden dimension". In the introduction, Yaohua Wang writes:

"Let's begin with a joke. A man went into a restaurant, and he asked the waitress; 'Can I have a coffee without milk, please.' The waitress answers: 'Sorry we don't have milk today, can I give you a coffee without cream.' For me, this is a very interesting moment. It reveals that what you don't get is also defining what you get, the hidden dimension behind the appearance. How could architecture gain this hidden dimension, beyond the physical form?"

Zaha Hadid Architects has admitted it has made changes to its design for the stadium that will be the centrepiece of the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo. The firm has faced hostility in Japan with critics complaining that the proposed 80,000-seat stadium is too big, too costly and clashes with Tokyo's urban planning. At the weekend, 500 protestors marched around the existing National Stadium to demonstrate over plans to replace it with Hadid's proposal [...].

Fisht reproduces Cowboys signature pair of arched trusses, and shares its bulbous, hump-back shape — albeit with a wave-like articulated roof of polycarbonate. What it appears not to share, at least from the images available online, is the sensitive way Cowboys Stadium hits the ground, slanting in to minimize its bulk. Fisht is a lot more ham-fisted, flaring out and surrounded by all manner of circulatory junk.

Olympic stadiums are nothing new for Populous, the global practice known for designing some of the world's iconic sports venues. With the Sochi Winter Olympics a few days away, we'll give a little headstart with a glimpse into Fisht Olympic Stadium -- which Populous was selected to design in 2009 -- before it makes its debut at the Opening Ceremony.

Less than five months before Brazil's World Cup kicks off, 6 out of 12 venues are still unfinished -- including a complex in the northern city of Manaus, where construction workers have died and pay for laborers is an issue. Fifa has warned Brazil's World Cup 2014 host city of Curitiba that it could be excluded unless work speeds up.

Ready, Set, Hike! A Trial Trek to MetLife Stadium The officials planning Super Bowl XLVIII want it to be the Super Bowl of public transportation. They are not just discouraging fans from walking to MetLife Stadium on game day in February — they are forbidding it.

 A reporter attempts to walk to MetLife Stadium. Most likely the reason one won't be allowed to walk into the Super Bowl is "terror"-related, but the article raises again the question of why our pedestrian environment is so degraded. Why have we allowed our cities to be built in such a way that the owners of publicly-financed sports teams and their multi-billion-worth corporate sponsors can helicopter in to the game, but a regular person can't find infrastructure to make it safe and possible to walk in even if they *were* allowed to?

 An assignment: look at your local stadium, most likely financed by public (your) money, on Google Maps and assess whether it's walkable. How does it rate on the Walk Score scale? (Indianapolis' rates a 72.) And a design problem: what could be done to make it better for a pedestrian, a family, perhaps a team of football-playing dogs?

Brazil's World Cup preparations suffered a deadly setback on Wednesday when a roof collapsed killing at least two building workers at the São Paulo stadium that is due to host the opening match. Coming a week before the draw for next year's tournament, the fatalities revive concerns about unsafe infrastructure and the slow pace of construction, which have dogged the hosts for more than a year.

Six months after the Japanese government approved Hadid's proposals, the country's parliament has signalled a reverse in its support. Hakubun Shimomura, the minister in charge of education, sports and science, said that the New National Stadium would cost 300 billion yen (£1.8 billion) to build and that was "too massive a budget". The design of the 80,000-seat stadium will be preserved but Mr Shimomura said: "We need to rethink this and scale it down."

A little while ago, we reported about Zaha Hadid Architects taking the first prize in the New National Stadium Japan competition and the selection of the 11 finalist projects. Here is now another design proposal for Tokyo's proposed Olympic Stadium which didn't quite make it among the final submissions: "The Twist" by French MenoMenoPiu Architects & FHF Architectes.

The initial responses of some local architects to the arena drawings were underwhelming. While cautioning that the renderings are preliminary, Seattle architect and critic Mark Hinshaw said some of the views of the proposed arena seem like "boxes with a tight lid" that could be any number of public buildings. "One thing that seems missing is any kind of dramatic roof expression that we have seen with a number of landmark buildings — particularly ones that involve large audiences.

Swine Health and Production Medicine
North Carolina is the number two swine state in the U.S. The Swine Health & Production Medicine (SHPM) Faculty are actively engaged with the NC swine industry though research and outreach and are committed to training future veterinarians to serve the industry and private clients
The SHPM faculty research programs deliver cutting-edge information to support the U.S. Swine industry. All SPHM faculty are engaged in research programs that are nationally and internationally recognized.
SHPM Faculty at NC State have their primary focus in the following areas of research:
Reproductive physiology and immunology research is aimed at investigating the influence of cytokines and the immune system on corpus luteum function in the pig.
Molecular epidemiology is focused on understanding important multidrug resistant (MDR) food borne pathogens at the pre-harvest and post-harvest food safety levels with the specific goal to determine the dynamics of Salmonella, Campylobacter and Clostridium in swine, retail meat and humans.
Gastrointestinal physiology seeks to understand the pathophysiology of important enteric disease affecting swine with the ultimate goal of identifying improved prevention and therapeutic strategies to mitigate these costly diseases. Special emphasis is on stress physiology of the pig and its role in swine intestinal health and disease susceptibility.
Education and Outreach
Teaching for veterinary students is accomplished at the Teaching Animal Unit (TAU), in Swine Selectives for students in the first three classes of the professional curriculum, senior rotations for students, and in lecture primarily during year 3 of the DVM curriculum.
SHPM Faculty develop strong relationships with practicing swine veterinarians and management within the industry in North Carolina. They collaborate with DVM's and their clients to provide better teaching opportunities for our students and graduate students.
The Faculty are actively engaged in the international swine industry, including a training program for international veterinarians who desire to learn more about large scale swine production in order to improve the health of swine in their countries.

Comments about AB Biller LTD Padauk Spear Gun 60 Inch:
Using this speargun is a pleasure. I own the 48" Paduk version. It's accurate, quiet, simple, reliable and deadly beautiful. The 48" version is perfectly suited to getting up under ledges with a flashlight to searchout holed up Grouper. Maximum range with line attached is @ 15 ft. I recommend upgrading the bands to the JBL 5/8"x22" Blue lightning. This will increase range to @ 25 feet while freeshafting. I highly recommend purchasing a few extra shafts and a spare shaft holder if you plan freeshafting however.

About Windows Installer, the .NET Framework, and Visual Studio.
Some users are reporting that when installing Visual Studio 2010 SP1 they are prompted for MSI files as shown in the following example screenshot. These prompts for source are most common during rollback on failed install attempts and uninstall since original RTM files need to be put back on the machine and may not have been cached by Windows Installer.
This includes, but is not limited to, the following MSI files.
I will update this list of files customers are commonly seeing as I'm made aware. If you are seeing this with other MSI files when installing VS2010 SP1, please comment below.
The solution varies depending on what you are being prompted for. I will update this entry with common prompt issues for VS2010 SP1 as I'm made aware. If you're running into this issue with other MSI files when installing VS2010 SP1, please comment below.
This workaround also may apply to any other language for the Visual Studio 2010 Shell (Integrated), and the instructions are similar for Visual Studio 2010 Shell (Isolated) through the download location and file names will be different.
If the title of the source prompt dialog contains "Express", please see section 2.2.5 in the VS2010 SP1 read me; otherwise, the following instructions should help you provide the right source and continue installation.
In general, prompts for source during patch install occur because a file installed by a product is missing or in an unexpected state. Windows Installer requires the original source to get these files. If it can't find it automatically (for example, the original media isn't in the drive or the previous network location), Windows Installer prompts the user for this source to continue.
Followed the instruction in this article and the VS 2010 SP 1 install continued with no other errors.
Question, I don't understand this... at all... yet I am having this issue. May I have some sort of breakdown? What's my original installation Media? Where can I find it?
@John, how did you install Visual Studio in the first place? If from a DVD, then that is your original installation media it is asking for. If you downloaded it, you may need to download it again and expand/burn it (depending on whether you downloading an ISO or something else).
The link to "VSIntShell.exe" is not available. Is it safe to download it from other place?
@kunal, I don't recommend downloading from other sources. You can try social.msdn.microsoft.com/.../en-US which points to several versions and should work even if the actual download file name changes.
File Name Vc_runtime_x86.msi
The feature you are tryint to us is on a network resource that is unavailable
Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'Vc_runtime_x86.msi' in the box below
Thank You

See this answer!!!
Again, ensure you download INTEGRATED not ISOLATED as the answer shows isolated.
It didn't help. Well, i'm not surprised.
OK - the trick with the vs_isoshell.exe (or alike) is as follows:
Extract vs_setup.msi AND vs_setup.cab into the same directory as the .exe itself.
I'm not sure whether the installation will find these files automatically.
Anyway, when prompted change the directory to where these files are located.
My installation is not yet finished but I bet it will work.
Anyway - this is snail science :(
I will try it and then leave a comment. Hope it works!!
Could you help me for god sakes i dont know more what to do. In my case i am stuck at the same screen but with this error VS_setup.msi "...appdata\local\temp\sit21278.tmp\" I have tried copy the content of DVD image to desktop, not worked, tried to install from inside this folder ..same error.
What am i doing (or not) wrong, why this is happening anyways?
I am sorry but i am not so good at this commands that you mentioned could you explain where do i have to type it if this solution applies to me as well.
@Anderson Cardoso, what step specifically are you having trouble with? There's no need to copy source to your desktop, as you have to browse to the location of the MSI (which can be located on your original installation media).
@Heath Stewart
HI, i am having problem to install it. i ve tried to mount the image to install it, and i ve got the same error, tried to extract the file, same error, tried to browse the archieves manyally same error as i mentioned. "appdata\local\temp\sit21278.tmp" it says that it cant find the VS_setup.msi
@Anderson Cardoso, it's probably prompting for the MSI in SP1. Follow the instructions in the first section. There's nothing to mount, so I'm guessing you're mounting your original RTM ISO. You need to extract vs_setup.msi from SP1.
The same issue with mine...
Windows Update can solve this problem.

Risk more than others think is safe.
I really love to travel. I had a really good run when I went to 8 different countries in 14 months, but I put off foreign adventures while I spent 2.5 years in grad school. I just finished that so I'm trying to figure out where to go next...Provence, Cuba, New Zealand, and Argentina have all been mentioned recently. I've been a fairly serious runner for about four years. When I started, I couldn't run more than 2 miles. I decided on a whim to sign up for a half marathon, and now I've run three marathons and a handful of halfs (training for marathon 4 now). I love food (thank god for running), and my favorite training runs end at the Donut Plant or Levain. I'm happy when I have a carbo--load excuse, and totally use football Sunday in the bar as an excuse to eat mozzarella sticks. I work in real estate development/construction and love learning about the history of different buildings in NY and urban planning in general. I like to point out various historical or unique features (I'm probably annoying but I am a fantastic tour guide!). Example: on the west side of Park Ave S, somewhere between 31st and 34th, there is this old bronze clock with a wizard on top of it. A wizard! I've been told it moves occasionally, but I haven't been able to catch him doing it yet! I'm an awesome baker, and I've made friends with pie and cookies. What I'm looking for...of course the cliche things like making me laugh, kindness, warmth, sense of adventure. I have kind of a twisted sense of humor, and it usually takes some time for that part to come out, but understanding it is critical (I think I'm hilarious, of course). I love being affectionate, doing nice little things for the people I care about, and making sure they know I care. I want to have adventures (it's time for another skydiving trip!) and experience new things with...someone. Or myself, I'm pretty good at adventures by myself! When it comes down to it, I want another best friend and teammate, and hope that people (in general, really) see me as someone they want on their side. In the end, it's chemistry...we've all met someone who is perfect "on paper" but things just don't click. So yeah, chemistry is key! *I don't know why some of my matches say "you're both wine connoisseurs"...I'm not. Big red wines are good, that's all I know. But I'm a beer connoisseur!

Running, watching the Giants play, Belgian beers, decadent meals after a long training run, traveling, Autumn in NYC, baking, planning all the things I'll have time for after grad school.
I love lazy afternoons at a bar or fun restaurant watching a game or talking about everything and nothing, afternoons at the beach or park when it's nice out. Wandering around NYC's greenmarkets. AMNH and the Museum of the City of NY.
The Alienist, A Confederacy of Dunces (kind of hated it), All the Light We Cannot See, Forever, The Economist, real estate weeklies. I'm finally reading some Gabriel Garcia Marquez.
