|Understanding diastolic function mandates feasible and accurate methods to construct and compare the diastolic pressure (P)-volume (V) relationship (PVR). This study compared the relaxation-corrected single beat (RC-SB) to the multiple-beat (MB) (vena cava occlusion) method for constructing the diastolic PVR in 26 young normal or old hypertensive dogs before and after increases in afterload (phenylephrine) or acute volume expansion in the presence (n = 14) or absence (n = 12) of the pericardium. The PVR data were fit to P = alphae(beta x V). Derived stiffness indexes compared included the stiffness coefficient (beta), curve-fitting constant (alpha), and the end-diastolic volume (EDV) at 10, 20, or 30 mmHg [EDV(x) = ln(P(x)/alpha)/beta] to account for covariance in alpha and beta. In pericardium-intact young normal and old hypertensive dogs studied over varying afterloads, the MB and RC-SB PVR appeared identical. The beta (r = 0.62) and alpha (r = 0.69) derived from the RC-SB vs. MB PVR showed moderate correlation but poor agreement. In contrast, the EDV(10-30) derived from RC-SB vs. MB PVR showed excellent correlation (r = 0.97) and agreement. The uncorrected SB method underestimated stiffness. As expected, after acute volume expansion, the RC-SB PVR was shifted upward from the MB PVR (decreased EDV(10-30); P < 0.05) in the pericardium-intact but not pericardium-absent dogs. The RC-SB method can substitute for the MB technique in construction of PVR in the absence of acute volume expansion. The concordance between these two methods was poorly reflected by comparing the derived alpha and beta but apparent when using EDV(10-30), which provides information regarding the position of the PVR in a single number.

It was the simplest of magic.
A frosty morning watching tiny deer graze in the sandy soil ... a solitary, 70-degree beach afternoon in March ... an orange-and-raspberry sunset while searching for seashells.
This was a wildlife trip we keep talking about for the wonder of it, for everything we keep learning about the 37 miles of Assateague Island, and what our next adventure there will be.
It was only supposed to be about that.
But then, layer by layer, it became about something else we could have never imagined.
How do you make sense of tragedy amid all the good?
That is what haunts us now.
• • •
The morning's breezy chill gradually melted away into a barefoot walk in the waves.
At just the right moment, we turned away from the ocean and looked toward a line of brush and trees, the last defense before the bay.
And there she was, the Christmas foal, the island's youngest filly. Strangely enough, she was born on the cusp of the harshest winter in years but survived through the diligence of her mother and the protection of her band of wild horses.
There was no one else around, so my wife slowly approached and perched on a dune 20 yards away to study her and take photos.
The foal nursed from her mother. She rested her head in the sand to take a nap. She rolled on her back like a puppy.
It was the warmest day of her life.
Just a few hours before, I had watched my wife stand among sika deer as they slowly grazed through the bayberry shrubs and loblolly pines. It was as if they knew and trusted her.
The finishing touch was a sunset walk on the national park side of Assateague. This is where, during warm months, cars and trucks end their hours-long wait on the single-lane road through the island. Tourists come for cheap camping, the horses and the views.
Where else can you walk from the bay to the ocean, navigating forest, marsh, grassland and dunes in 15 minutes?
We make sure to time our trips so there are no hunters, insects or crowds. We go where the gulls aren't interested in handouts.
You don't imagine something bad happening there.

A few college-aged guys wanted to be noticed as the sun slipped away that evening. They loudly took turns hanging onto the back of a moving jeep — to get pulled on a skateboard.
They weren't going particularly fast or falling down. A car load of senior citizens laughed at the scene, and I shook my head and smiled because none of it, of course, fit the surroundings. This was something you'd see during senior week in Ocean City, Md., 10 miles away.
Our concern was for the horses and deer that walk the road and feed on its edges. After a few minutes, the guys pulled away and disappeared and we eventually left for the night.
The next morning, we returned to find the same camp ground road partially blocked by park personnel and police. They wouldn't say what was going on. A man was power washing blood off the road.
We feared an animal had been injured or killed by a vehicle.
But, a few hours later, the layers began peeling back.
After dark, a skateboard had apparently hit a Jeep wheel, flipping one of the Navy midshipmen to the ground, where he was accidentally run over. He was air-lifted off the island in grave condition.
We were stunned, one of those moments where emotions flood and collide. We were angry at how this could have happened. We were heart-sick.
We drove to that place in the road and said a prayer.
Then we began questioning ourselves: Should we have realized the potential danger of what was going on? Should we have phoned officials? Why couldn't we have known?
A week later, Hans Loewen died from his injuries that night, and eventually it made national news. He was 20. He was the second midshipman to die suddenly last month.
We learned that Loewen was an adventurer and a thrill-seeker, but he also was studying to become an oceanographer. He was preparing to serve our country. It seemed that so many adored him.
Then there was this: Couldn't we have made the same reckless decision 25 years ago?
Mostly, it seems that we must be impacted by knowing what happened. Maybe that means looking at similar situations differently now, even if it feels we may be overreacting.
We're struggling with all of that.
Because we're planning to return to Assateague in October, with the promise of experiencing a new season on the island, knowing that the beauty and peacefulness will resonate once again.
Knowing, too, how things must always be different now.

Larimer County Clerk Scott Doyle doubts that Colorado Secretary of State Scott Gessler's quest to crosscheck the citizenship of some registered voters against a federal database will yield much fruit.
"I really don't know that what the secretary's office is chasing here is a problem in our voting system, not large numbers," Doyle said.
Gessler believes he is obligated to reconcile the 5,000 registered Colorado voters who at one time identified themselves as not being citizens of the United States by running them through a U.S. Department of Homeland Security database, according to ...

Vaginal Rejuvenation / Labiaplasty
Labiaplasty (a.k.a. Vaginal Rejuvenation) is a cosmetic surgical procedure that reduces the size or changes the shape of the labia minora. Many women are born with large labia, but women can also develop this condition overtime as they age or after pregnancy. Enlarged labia can cause embarrassment with a sexual partner and in some cases cause chronic irritation or general discomfort in women who want to wear fitted clothing.
The procedure takes approximately one hour and is done under anesthesia. Afterwards you may experience some swelling and discomfort for the first few days, but pain is managed through medication. Most patients can return to work within four days after their surgery, but strenuous activity (such as exercise) should be avoided for at least four weeks. Sexual activity can be resumed between six to eight weeks after surgery. Dr. Shafer uses absorbable sutures, so there is no need to have them removed. Final healing takes about six weeks.
In some cases, patient also request Labia Major correction at the same time as Labia Minora reduction or as a separate procedure. Labia Major correction can be a reduction or augmentation with fat grafting or dermal fillers.

Penn State alumni speak out at meetings
Penn State Nittany Lions fans cheer during the TicketCity Bowl at Cotton Bowl Stadium on January 2, 2012 in Dallas, Texas. Penn State fans and alumni have been expressing outrage over the ongoing scandal at the school.
Steve Chiotakis: Tonight, Penn State's new president will host yet another town hall meeting with alumni about the sexual abuse scandal that's engulfed the university. It is the third in a series of confrontational question and answer sessions -- or something akin to what you'd see from angry stockholders at some big company.
Marketplace's Gregory Warner attended a forum last night and he filed this report.
Gregory Warner: More and more, public colleges in this country feel like corporate America. Take a look around this Radisson hotel conference hall last night in Philadelphia. Six hundred fifty Penn State alumni packed the place like unhappy shareholders.
In the front row, Larry Grossman, class of 73.
Larry Grossman: Well, a couple of people I felt who were in control should have taken the bull by the horns, now the whole university's kinda tainted and that really ticks me off.
Warner: So why being here, how will that help to untaint it?
Grossman: Well, I don't know that it will untaint it but it gives me a chance maybe to vent my anger, OK?
To vent, and to vet the new CEO -- I mean, new university president -- Rodney Erickson, who replaced president Graham Spanier dismissed in November. Grossman's family is still struggling over how much to donate to the alma mater; and so is Anne Marie Merrill, flanked by her sorority sisters.
Anne Marie Merrill: That's what I'm here tonight to make a decision on, quite frankly. I am -- that's part of what I'm here for, to find out, what do we do about these Penn State football tickets, what are we going to do about the donations?
President Erickson gives the kind of speech about openness and compassion and living up to Penn State values that takes just seven minutes. Then he sits in a plush chair on the long stage to take questions for an hour fifteen.
Anthony Lubrano, a financial advisor and multi-million dollar donor, drills into the president saying he'd just come from Joe Paterno's house.
Anthony Lubrano: And coach wanted me to share this with all of you. And he was very clear. He said, and I'll try to do my best Joe impression: 'Kid, remember! This is not about me, this is about our school.' So in spite of how we've treated him, he's still thinking about us first.
When it was all over, I asked the sorority alum Anne Marie Merrill what she'd decided about her donation.
Merrill: I don't know. It just was more of the same, and the audience contributed to asking the same questions over and over again. So, I think football money is due February 1st, so I've got a couple weeks.
Another alum told me she's going to give even more this year, but earmarked -- and first she's going to go on the university website, and actually read the budget.
In Philadelphia, I'm Gregory Warner for Marketplace.

Offensive and defensive linemen and linebackers are extremely skilled athletes. Not only are these the most unsung positions on the field, but they also contribute the most to the success or failure of each game. Great demands are placed on these positions. Discipline, perseverance, repetition, and understanding the total concepts of offensive line techniques and defensive line reads are essential to be able to meet the great expectations, which come with these positions. However, in most high school situations, pre-season or in-season, team practice cannot devote the individualized attention and concentration necessary for ultimate success. If your expectations go beyond being average then this is the clinic for you.
The Northeast Football Clinic offers EXCLUSIVE concentration on offensive and defensive linemen, and linebackers skills and techniques by skilled coaches who have achieved measures of greatness in these two specific areas, both as players and coaches.
The Northeast Football Clinic is the total football experience. We instill the confidence and competence required to play the lineman and linebacker position. We teach proper training and conditioning techniques to maximize your physical fitness, while minimizing the risk of injury. We stress the importance of academic grades for college recruitment and scholarship opportunities, as well as the 2015 NCAA Clearing House Rules and Regulations. We even utilize off-field coaching techniques like college training films, classroom lectures and chalk talks to help athletes reach their full potential. We are a teaching clinic.
Ball was a 2013 National I AAA State of Merit Award Recipient and is also a member of the Board of Directors of the NH Chapter of the National Hall of Fame Foundation. Many of his players both offensively and defensively have gone on to play at the Div. I, IAA, II, and III Levels. The Exeter HS William D. Ball Stadium was named in his honor for his extraordinary leadership both on and off the field, as well as his outstanding reflection of values and example for young people. Coach Ball is considered by many to be a role model for all student athletes.
His experience and accomplishments include:
He is also the former Athletic Director and former Head football Coach at Lynnfield High School.
Jay Wood is the Athletic Director at Hillsboro-Deering HS, as well as the Head Football Coach at Hillsboro-Deering/Hopkinton Co-op. Coach Wood has 18 years of experience as a Varsity Football Coach.
Coach Wood served as Bishop Brady's Offensive Coordinator in 2006, 2007, and 2013. They were the 2006 D5 State Champions, 2007 D5 State Semi-Finalist, and 2013 D3 East Conference Finalist.
For those players who play in a Delaware Wing T System, the clinic will place strong emphasis on Wing T fundamentals, coupled with pro pass protection and an inside zone technique to compliment the Wing T.
Areas covered for offensive lineman will be stance, approach, contact, follow through and finish. Shoulder skills will be taught in sequence surface, strike a blow, step and hit, and run and hit techniques. Furthermore, players will drill the on block, fire step, reach step and pull step. Single blocks and technique emphasized will be on block, fire block, reach block, gap block, down block, trap block and log block. Combination blocks such as post lead, cross block and scoop will be taught. Moreover, the 20 series, 30 series and 80 series will be drilled for technique, assignment and execution.

BOULDER, Colo. (AP) Applications to the University of Colorado in Boulder are up 23% so far this year.
CU admissions officials say recruiters visited more high schools, domestically and internationally for classes that begin next year.
The Daily Camera reports that admissions officers also credit a move to the Common Application, used by more than 500 schools (http://bit.ly/19Dqqdj ). Using the Common Application can make it easier for students to apply to multiple schools.
As of Dec. 9, CU had received 15,910 applications. On the same date in 2012, CU had received 12,921 applications.
CU recruiters visited an extra 120 high schools this fall compared to 2012. CU recruiters also visited 26 countries, up from 19 last fall.

To cook from fresh
If you want to cook this dish straightaway. Pop it in a preheated oven for 15 mins instead of freezing.
- Heat the oil in a large non-stick wok or pan, add the aubergines and cook for 5 mins, stirring, until starting to soften and brown. Add the garlic and stir for a few secs. Tip in the peppers, courgettes, passata, stock and half the chopped basil. Season, cover and cook for 20 mins, stirring occasionally, until the veg is just tender. Cool, stir in the remaining basil and spoon into 8 x 250ml shallow ovenproof dishes or foil containers.
- For the salmon, beat together the cheeses. Mix the breadcrumbs and pine nuts on a plate. Spread the top of the fish fillets with the cheese mix, then dip in the nutty crumbs to coat the cheese. Put a fillet on top of each ratatouille-filled dish.
- Put the dishes inside freezer bags and seal. Use within 6 weeks. To serve, unwrap the dishes, put on a baking tray in a cold oven, then set to 200C/180C fan/ gas 6. Bake for 55 mins until bubbling and the fish is cooked. Check after 30 mins – if the crumbs are getting too brown, cover the fish with foil. Serve scattered with basil, with bread, if you like.

Neither Democrat nor Republican but simply "other," Scientologist Juliette Lewis is another star who thinks Ron Paul rocks, telling her Facebook fans that she likes how he is for "preserving the constitution [sic] and basic human rights which are slowly being dismantled with last couple presidents and then some."
Other than indefinite detention—something that will probably affect about 0% of anyone reading this but I agree, a terrible precedent—I am curious to know which basic human rights she thinks have been dismantled...? The right to die of cancer if you're too poor to treat it?
At any rate, an odd time to step up to the plate and declare oneself a Paul supporter; he's a couple of primaries away from being where he belongs—permanent retirement. There isn't a single person running for president who would dream of having him in his cabinet or appointed to any office.
By the way, people who "loath" politics are either people who are cynical about why it's important to care or people who really just don't fucking care.
P.S. Interesting that this ex-fuck bud of Brad Pitt seems to be Libertarian; there is lots of gossip that Angelina Jolie is, too.

We have over 400 stores and our depots and offices are dotted all around the UK, so it's easy to rack up the road miles! We're looking at how we reduce the miles our transport fleets travel by thinking about the types of journeys we make.
We've taken action everywhere, from field to supermarket shelf. It's taken everything from new technology to the commitment of our colleagues, and everyone from drivers to depot managers. But since 2005 we've travelled 17 million fewer miles, cutting the carbon emissions we produce by 42%.What we're doing to reduce our road miles

Game 1 starter Justin Verlander throws in the outfield during workouts Tuesday in San Francisco. / MANDI WRIGHT/Detroit Free Press
SAN FRANCISCO -- Justin Verlander has settled into the most amazing stage of his career.
Stage 1: Verlander was the young kid, bursting with talent. But he was just a young buck, trying to figure it out.
Stage 2: Verlander became the strikeout king, and people sat around and said: "Boy, he'd be incredible if he ever put it all together."
Stage 3: That is where we find him today -- starting Game 1 of the World Series -- one of the best pitchers in baseball, if not the best.
Stage 1
Verlander burst on the scene in 2006 and put together a 17-9 record. He started Game 1 of the World Series -- an invaluable experience as a rookie -- but the Tigers lost to the St. Louis Cardinals, 7-2.
The lessons learned from that game undoubtedly will prepare him for tonight.
"Everything was kind of a whirlwind," Verlander said Tuesday, looking back. "And I don't think I really appreciated the magnitude of how hard it is to get there."
Verlander thought he'd be in the World Series every year.
"I think I had a rude awakening in the years after that," he said.
Verlander put together an 18-6 record in 2007, and it seemed like he was riding a rocket to the stars.
Until 2008. That was the lost year. Verlander went 11-17. Which made Verlander appreciate 2006 all the more.
"I realized how lucky I was to get there in 2006 after a couple more seasons, especially after 2008," Verlander said. "You know, I realized how tough it was, but I also knew at the same time that I had just had -- it was only my third year, and hopefully had many more years to go. If I had a lengthy career, obviously, I would have some more opportunities."
Stage 2
Verlander became the flamethrower, striking out 269 in 2009.
But there were some flaws in his game.
Sometimes, he would let his emotion take control.
"In the past, sometimes, if umpires would miss calls, or if a misplay out in the field, it would tend to get him out of his rhythm," catcher Gerald Laird said.
Verlander was on the verge of greatness, but his emotion was holding him back.
Stage 3
Welcome to greatness.
Verlander entered this latest stage after he pitched a no-hitter against Toronto on May 7, 2011.
Cy Young. MVP. He's capable of throwing a no-hitter every time he walks on the mound.
Verlander, 29, has learned how to control his emotions and control the game.
"Nowadays, nothing affects him," Laird said. "He has one idea in his head and that is to dominate. Nothing seems to faze him. If he walks a guy or there is an error, he seems to have a shutdown inning.
"The good part about him is, if guys get on base, he gets tougher. Later in the game, he gets even better."
Now it should be pointed out that manager Jim Leyland deserves credit for how he handled Verlander throughout his career. He resisted the urge to overthrow him.
Leyland treats Verlander as a precious commodity -- refusing to overuse him. He has gone out of his way to protect his star player, the franchise.
Verlander has never had arm trouble, and he seems to be getting better and better.
Verlander has reached the stage of his career where he looks comfortable with who he is.
He is a man of routine -- he has won 17 games or more for four straight seasons, the longest streak by a Tiger since Hal Newhouser in the 1940s.
"When he's pitching, you know not to mess with him," said catcher Alex Avila. "He comes in. He has his music going. He has his routine."
He does his warm-up the same way, every time, and it works for him.
Verlander has learned how to be consistently dominant -- and he led the American League with 239 strikeouts this season.
"He has that complete-game look in his eye every start," Avila said.
Verlander expects to pitch a no-hitter every time.
He expects to go the distance -- he pitched six complete games in 2012 to lead the American League.
He expects to win -- he has 124 victories for the Tigers, 10th most in team history.
"I think he's matured into himself," Laird said. "Obviously, if you look at his last few starts, he has kind of come into his own and pitched real well in this postseason. I think he's found himself in that way."
Now, Verlander has the look. You can see it in his eyes when he's on, when he is about to dominate another team.
He had that look in Game 5 against the Oakland Athletics in the American League Division Series.
"You could tell he had that shutdown look," Laird said. "We were moving on.
"Honestly, we are fortunate to have a guy like that. We feel comfortable that every time he's on the mound we are going to win the game."
That's the beauty of Stage 3. It is marked by total, complete confidence and mastery.
"I think the little things don't get to him anymore," Laird said. "He has a game plan, a task he wants to accomplish. And he goes about it. Nothing really seems to distract him."
And the game plan is simple.
Win the World Series.

David Gray Lyrics Say Hello, Wave Goodbye
WARNING: Although this is a great song, it is not written by DG. It was written by Marc Almond of Soft Cell. The chords are easy, it\'s the timing that takes a while-listen to it. The song is in A and sounds nicest when one uses the bar chords A: 556775 D: 577755 E: 799977 just slide upwards on the 4th beat F# min: 222442 C# min: 456644
Verse: A A D D E Chorus/ Bridge: F#min G#(just base note) A C#min D E
Standing at the door of the Pink Flamingo crying in the rain Here was a kind of so-so love And I\'m going to make sure it doesn\'t happen again You and I had to be, the standing joke of the year You were the owner of the lost and found And not for me, I feel
Take your hands off me, hey I don\'t belong to you, you see Take them in off my face, for the last time I never knew you, you never knew me Say hello goodbye Say hello and wave goodbye
We try to make it work, you in a cocktail skirt And me in a suit, but it just wasn\'t me You\'re just a wilderness, and now your life\'s a mess So insecure you see I\'ve put up with all the scenes,

The inability to distinguish reality from fantasy is usually harmless–in a three or four year old.Â
For the rest of us, that failure can be a sign of a serious mental disorder or just a refusal to accept what exists, or it could simply involve believing what you want to be true when the alternative is just too unpleasant to contemplate.Â
Our president was giving a pep talk to some supporters out on the left coast on Thursday in his continuing quest to preserve Democrat majorities in the House and Senate. It was a small group gathered at the University of Washington's Husky Stadium, the overflow from the main event in UW's basketball arena which was a sign of Obama's times. Two years ago he would have filled the stadium, not just an arena.Â
His address was interrupted by an Obama enthusiast which led to the president giving an impromptu evaluation of the first two years of his presidency.Â
Obama was saying, "And for all the problems we're going through right now, we still have the best workers on Earth, we've got the finest universities on Earth, we've got the best entrepreneurs on Earth. We've got the freest, most vibrant economy on Earth . . . " It was at that point that one of his fans shouted out, "Best president on Earth!"Â
Now, admittedly, Obama was in an awkward spot there–and without his best buddy, his trusty teleprompter. He could have simply smiled that sappy grin of his and ignored the shouted compliment but he chose to wing it with a quick response.Â
"Well, I won't say that," he modestly began. He was interrupted by applause. He continued, less modestly and now speaking as if he were one of his audience, "but we've got a pretty good president:" http://tiny.cc/kxp8u.Â
"We?" Who, pray tell, are these "we?" Since I'm not a shrink, I wouldn't dare speculate what he meant by using that pronoun. However, I must admit that this whole piece is an exercise in pop psychology. It also veers into nitpicking but, hey, this is the president and I'm one of the electorate entitled to nitpick.
Maybe he was just being cute when he said, "We've got a pretty good president," or maybe not. To his credit, he didn't suggest he was a "great" or "superb" president, and he certainly didn't agree that he was the "best president on Earth."Â
This is where the reality factor kicks in.Â
I last ventured into pop psych with "Barack, A Product of His Syndromes," in which I speculated that Obama may suffer from ACS, Abandoned Child Syndrome, or ICS, Interracial Copulation Syndrome, or both.Â
That nineteen-month-old article concluded with, "Barely nine weeks into his tenure as America's 44th president, commander-in-chief of the armed forces, and leader of the free world, one can only hope Barack Obama's missteps and misspeaks are nothing more or less than foibles and not an acting out as a consequence of dangerous syndromes:" http://tiny.cc/n2961
Well, I'm almost afraid to say but, based on his left coast remarks, it seems as if our president is suffering from yet another syndrome in addition to ACS and ICS, namely RARS, Refusal to Accept Reality Syndrome.Â
All he has to do to cure his RARS would be to check out his poll numbers, check out the negative sentiment in the country, check out the unemployment and under-employment figures, check out where Dems rank in congressional and gubernatorial contests, and he just could become RARS-free!
He would still be plagued by his ACS and ICS but one step at a time. The most important consideration is that living in the fantasy world that he's been "pretty good" as a president could really screw up his very brilliant mind.

Wind Set To Offset WPL Coal Plant Expansion
NAW Staff, Friday 13 June 2008 - 01:00:00
On condition of approval for a proposed expansion at the Nelson Dewey Generating Station, a coal-fired base-load generation plant in Wisconsin, Alliant Energy Corp.'s Wisconsin Power and Light Co. (WPL) says it will retire another coal-fired generating unit, increase its wind power portfolio, double its commitment to biomass and build on its energy efficiency measures.
The proposed changes to WPL's generation fleet will be filed with the Public Service Commission of Wisconsin (PSCW) as part of WPL's testimony filing related to the proposed expansion of the Nelson Dewey Generating Station in Cassville, Wis., and are subject to the approval of the PSCW.
"We spend a lot of time reaching out to our customers, listening to what they want and what they can afford," says Barbara Swan, president of WPL. "Their two main concerns: protecting the environment while at the same time keeping the cost of electricity affordable. These are challenges we embrace as we head down a path to a greener future."
As part of its GHG emissions-reduction proposal, WPL would retire Edgewater Generating Station's coal-fired unit 3. The company would also increase its commitment to develop new wind power resources. Previously, the company had announced plans for approximately 300 MW of new wind by the end of 2010. Upon approval of the Nelson Dewey expansion, the company would add 200 MW to that total by the time the new facility begins commercial operation. While the sites for the future wind farms have not yet been determined, it is possible that one of the sites could be located in southwestern Wisconsin, according to WPL.

Oasis of the Seas Cruise Review by jooltje: Amazing ship

Compare Prices on Oasis of the Seas Western Caribbean Cruises
Amazing ship
This was an amazing cruise; entertainment aboard was really good; Music Express and the Jazz band were top of the line.Unfortunately the Pat Jenau trio lost the drummer and they kept performing without a drummer but due to the kind of music they played, like 60's an 70,s , the result of their performance was vary poor.
We made reservation in advance for the shows and that worked out really nice.
the shows were also top of the line.
We rent i phones; this was a nightmare, everyday they had to give us another phone because the one we had had bad reception or something else; when on the 4 th day we had to go to the reference center to complain again about the phones my husband wanted to return the phones and get back our money, than Mendoza offered us to pay half the prize they had charged us.
What i missed on that cruise was the ice carving night, a (midnight) bbq on the deck and at least 1 midnight buffet.
There was a lot of smoking in the More bars and also in the cabin next to us, i could smell it when i was on our balcony.
Overall this was a great cruise. Less

First of all we would like to apologize that the archive have been offline for so long. The reason it went offline was simply that the harddrive crashed leading ot a total loss and we had to rebuild the archive from scratch. After a lot of work we have now done just that, with better security this time. At the same time we have of course taken the time to update all programs and files in the archive, and added a whole bunch of new ones.

The reason that you don't see a list of the new files here is simply because all files have been updated. The list simply became too long to post it here.

Some of the new files we've addad include BeSweet 1.4, new and old versions of nVidia, ATi, DNA, Omega and NGO's drivers, drivers for Logitech and Microsoft's mice and keyboard, and much more.

If you are still missing something or simply find something that is incorrect feel free to mail us.

French DM Vows 'Total Reconquest' of Mali
Rebels Withdraw From Forward Positions to Prepare for Long Defense
Speaking to France 5 television today, French Defense Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian vowed that the invasion of Mali would not stop with any pockets of resistance left at all, saying the goal is nothing short of "the total reconquest of Mali."
French warplanes continue to pound rebel-held towns in central Mali with an eye toward eventual ground offensives against those areas, while the reports are that rebels have begun to pull back from southern Mali positions captured in the last few weeks to more defensible positions in the nation's center.
Whether or not the town of Diabaly, the southern-most rebel-held town, has been retaken is still a matter of dispute. Malian military officials have been claiming the town had been captured since Friday, but Le Drian insisted today that this still wasn't the case, expressing only hopes that they would soon manage to do so.
French officials had originally expressed confidence that they would turn Mali into a flourishing, terror-free democracy with the war, and this was liable to happen in a matter of weeks. Since then they have repeatedly expressed surprise at the strength of rebel fighters, however, and they have not taken meaningful territory since invading last weekend.

Taking back their past colony even if is not about democracy nor the social democracy.., this is the Neo colonialism with Neo Fascism attitude wanting to breed a religious dictatorial system as French is eager to change the world…, to puppet regimes with connection to Neo European and american mafia. And you thought Sarkozi or Bush were the bed guy's.
And after that perhaps the French military will retake the Paris suburbs from the Islamists.
Why stop at Mali?
Go on, reconquer all your former colonies.
And don't forget Mars by the way.
"Surprised at the strength of the rebel fighters" There were plenty of stories on how tough and dedicated these Al Qaeda fighters are. I guess the French did not believe it until they had first hand experience. Well good. It is time the French took a few years to clean out one of these Islamic hell holes. Let the USA sit back and watch for a change.
Exercising caution, I canceled my planned trip to Quebec today.
They've forgotten what a bleeding ulcer the colonies had become.

Remember Chad Jackson? Wide receiver? Second-round pick of the Patriots in 2006? He was a willowy athlete with speed enhanced by a long-stride running style. Jackson flashed star potential early on, but knee problems and questions about his work ethic ultimately kept his Patriot career grounded.
Jackson spent the '08 season in Denver but caught just one pass in four games. He was out of football in '09. Now, the 25-year-old has stumbled upon a golden opportunity. He recently joined the Buffalo Bills, a team that has kiddy-pool depth at wide receiver.
Mark Gaughan of the Buffalo News says Jackson is making his presence felt. He's currently behind third-year pro Steve Johnson for the slot receiver duties. Ostensibly, that puts Jackson ahead of shifty speedster Roscoe Parrish.

BURRILLVILLE ŌĆō It is the inescapable fate of any good high school team.
There is inevitable roster turnover that comes at the end of each season with the loss of the graduating class. The boys and girls cross country teams at Chariho, however, did not lose just key pieces after last fall.
With the graduation of two of the best runners the school has ever seen in Jake Kilcoyne and Bryce Kelley ŌĆō not to mention standouts on the girls side in Liz Hansen and Abby Dandurand ŌĆō the Chargers come into 2013 with some major shoes to fill.
With the dawn of their Southern Division schedules on the horizon, both Charger squads are making their final preparations for the 2013 season following last SaturdayŌĆÖs RIIL Cross Country Injury Fund Carnival at Burrillville Middle School and feel as though they are ready to move on without their graduated stars.
ŌĆ£WeŌĆÖre pretty pleased where everybody came in in terms of doing their summer homework,ŌĆØ said boys team coach Bill Haberek, whose team finished second in the Varnam Elliot Race Saturday. ŌĆ£We like what we see. We have some veterans who are stepping up and likewise with some of the younger guys.
ŌĆ£ŌĆ"We hope to be in the thick of things when the last meet rolls aroundŌĆØ
Chariho girls coach Diane Leith-Doucett echoed similar sentiments.
ŌĆ£Our teamŌĆÖs bigger than itŌĆÖs ever been before. We have 24 girls on the team, six of which are freshmen. ThatŌĆÖs really good to have a big group of younger kids coming up,ŌĆØ she said. ŌĆ£We did graduate our top two athletes from last year, but we picked up a couple, a few that were on the team made big strides from last year.
ŌĆ£ŌĆ"Our team is a much tighter team as far as theyŌĆÖre all running a little more intact, so that also helps with the racing. It will also help some of the newer athletes who havenŌĆÖt had a ton of experience racing a full 5K. It will give them some people to pace off of during the race.IŌĆÖm really looking forward to the season.ŌĆØ
Led by a fifth place finish Saturday by Stephen Gencarelli, Haberek will look to a core of eight to guide the Chargers as they look to improve upon last yearŌĆÖs third place finish in the ultra competitive Southern Division. Gencarelli will be joined at the top by fellow quint-captains Alden Andrea, Matthew Drummond, Andrew Sardelli and Teal Migliaccio, as well as juniors Matt Tierney and Andrew Ferrigno, neither of whom raced on Saturday.
While they may not possess the talent of Kelley or Kilcoyne, Haberek is hoping that his coreŌĆÖs ability to run in a tight pack will help the team score.
ŌĆ£We had six guys within a minute, which is good,ŌĆØ said the coach. ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖd be nice to have seven or eight guys within a minute and then get that compression down to maybe about 35 seconds or so.
ŌĆ£ŌĆ"I think at the end of the season itŌĆÖs going to be hard for me as the coach to think about whoŌĆÖs the No. 2, 3, 4 guy because I think they could switch around. TheyŌĆÖve shown a lot of improvement. All eight of them, I think theyŌĆÖre going to really mix it up and IŌĆÖm excited to see if in some meets we can get closer to 20, 30 seconds and have most everybody there, five to seven guys.ŌĆØ
Depth will also be key for Leith-DoucettŌĆÖs squad, but while the boys team is led by a group of experienced upperclassmen, the girls top core will be highlighted by younger and more raw talent.
Junior Isabel Baker is the ChargersŌĆÖ top returning runner from 2012 and will be joined at the top this fall by sophomore Pam Lelli, who was the varsityŌĆÖs fifth best runner last fall, and fellow junior Caroline Dukstra, a veteran of the Chargers track team who will be running cross country for the first time this fall.
Seniors Paige Ross, a four-year runner, and Delaney Silvestri, entering her second year with the squad, also figure to be in the mix, as does freshman Natalie Keefe, who finished 19th in the Freshmen Race Saturday.
With the new additions and improvements by the returning runners, Leith-Doucett is hoping her team can first improve on last yearŌĆÖs fourth place finish in the Southern Division, putting them in position for a better finish at the state championship meet.
ŌĆ£The girls are pretty amped up and pretty focused on trying to break into that top three [in the division],ŌĆØ said Leith-Doucett. ŌĆ£That would be a real great way to get into states without having to worry about the class meet as much.ŌĆØ
ŌĆ£ŌĆ"By the end of the season, weŌĆÖre hoping to come in 11th, 12th, that range at the state meet. WeŌĆÖve been 13th the last couple years in a row, so weŌĆÖre looking to place up above that. It would be really great and the girls are really motivated.ŌĆØ
Both teams will participate in the Twilight Relay this Friday at CumberlandŌĆÖs Tucker Field as their final tune up for the official start to their 2013 season Monday with their first home, dual meet against Narragansett and Exeter-West Greenwich at 4 p.m.

Create a new forest
Updated: January 21, 2005
Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2003 with SP2
To create a new forest
Click Start, click Run, and then type dcpromo to start the Active Directory Installation Wizard.
On the Operating System Compatibility page, read the information and then click Next.
If this is the first time you have installed Active Directory on a server running Windows Server 2003, click Compatibility Help for more information.
On the Domain Controller Type page, click Domain controller for a new domain, and then click Next.
On the Create New Domain page, click Domain in a new forest, and then click Next.
On the New Domain Name page, type the full DNS name for the new domain, and then click Next.
On the NetBIOS Domain Name page, verify the NetBIOS name, and then click Next.
On the Database and Log Folders page, type the location in which you want to install the database and log folders, or click Browse to choose a location, and then click Next.
On the Shared System Volume page, type the location in which you want to install the Sysvol folder, or click Browse to choose a location, and then click Next.
On the DNS Registration Diagnostics page, verify if an existing DNS server will be authoritative for this forest or, if necessary, choose to install and configure DNS on this server by clicking Install and configure the DNS server on this computer, and set this computer to use this DNS server as its preferred DNS server, and then click Next.
On the Permissions page, select one of the following:
- Permissions compatible with pre-Windows 2000 Server operating systems
- Permissions compatible only with Windows 2000 or Windows Server 2003 operating systems
- Permissions compatible with pre-Windows 2000 Server operating systems
Review the Summary page, and then click Next to begin the installation.
Restart the computer.
To perform this procedure, you must be a member of the Administrators group on the local computer, or you must have been delegated the appropriate authority. If the computer is joined to a domain, members of the Domain Admins group might be able to perform this procedure.
The server on which you install Active Directory using this procedure will be the first domain controller in the forest root domain.
Before installing Active Directory, you will need to consider pre-Windows 2000 compatible security levels and identify the DNS name of the domain. For more information, see the checklist in Related Topics.
The wizard options on the Permissions page affect application compatibility with computers running pre-Windows 2000 and Windows Server 2003 operating systems and are not related to domain functionality. For more information about permissions, see Related Topics.
The Active Directory Installation Wizard allows Active Directory domain names up to 64 characters or up to 155 bytes. Although the limit of 64 characters is usually reached before the limit of 155 bytes, the opposite could be true if the name contains Unicode characters consuming three bytes. These limits do not apply to computer names.
You cannot install Active Directory on a computer running Windows Server 2003, Web Edition, but you can join the computer to an Active Directory domain as a member server. For more information about Windows Server 2003, Web Edition, see Related Topics.
Information about functional differences
Your server might function differently based on the version and edition of the operating system that is installed, your account permissions, and your menu settings. For more information, see Viewing Help on the Web.
