The Test Sample
What is being tested?
Electrolytes are electrically charged minerals that are found in body tissues and blood in the form of dissolved salts. They help move nutrients into and wastes out of the body's cells, maintain a healthy water balance, and help stabilize the body's pH level. The electrolyte panel measures the main electrolytes in the body: sodium (Na+), potassium (K+), chloride (Cl-), and bicarbonate (HCO3-; sometimes reported as total CO2).
Most sodium is found in the plasma, outside of the body's cells, where it helps to regulate the amount of water in the body. Potassium is found primarily inside the body's cells. A small but vital amount of potassium is found in the plasma, the liquid portion of the blood. Monitoring potassium is important. Small changes in the plasma K+ level can affect the heart's rhythm and ability to contract. Chloride travels in and out of the cells to help maintain electrical neutrality, and its level usually mirrors that of sodium. The primary role of bicarbonate (or total CO2, an estimate of bicarbonate), which is excreted and reabsorbed by the kidneys, is to help maintain a stable pH level (acid-base balance) and, secondarily, to help maintain electrical neutrality.
A person's diet provides sodium, potassium, and chloride; the kidneys excrete them. The lungs provide oxygen and regulate CO2, which is in balance with bicarbonate. The balance of these chemicals is an indication of the functional well-being of several basic body functions, including those performed by the kidneys and heart.
The electrolyte panel is composed of the individual tests for sodium, potassium, chloride, and bicarbonate (or total CO2). A related "test" is the anion gap, which is a value calculated using the results of an electrolyte panel. It reflects the difference between the positively charged ions (called cations) and the negatively charged ions (called anions). The occurrence of an abnormal anion gap reflects an unusual presence of some kind of charged particle in the blood. It is non-specific but can be affected by metabolic by-products from conditions such as starvation or diabetes or the presence of a toxic substance, such as oxalate, glycolate, or aspirin. For more information on anion gap, see Common Questions #1.
How is the sample collected for testing?
A blood sample is drawn by needle from a vein in the arm.
NOTE: If undergoing medical tests makes you or someone you care for anxious, embarrassed, or even difficult to manage, you might consider reading one or more of the following articles: Coping with Test Pain, Discomfort, and Anxiety, Tips on Blood Testing, Tips to Help Children through Their Medical Tests, and Tips to Help the Elderly through Their Medical Tests.
Another article, Follow That Sample, provides a glimpse at the collection and processing of a blood sample and throat culture.
Is any test preparation needed to ensure the quality of the sample?
No test preparation is needed.

Asa Makes Judah a Better Nation
1The Spirit of God came on Azariah. He was the son of Oded. 2Azariah went out to meet Asa. He said to him, "Asa and all you people of Judah and Benjamin, listen to me. The Lord is with you when you are with him. If you really look for him, you will find him. But if you desert him, he will desert you.
3"For a long time Israel didn't worship the true God. They didn't have a priest who taught them. So they didn't know God's law. 4But when they were in trouble, they turned to the Lord, the God of Israel. When they did, they found him.
5"In those days it wasn't safe to travel around. The people who lived in all of the areas of the land were having a lot of trouble. 6One nation was crushing another. One city was crushing another. That's because God was causing them to suffer terribly.
7"But be strong. Don't give up. God will reward you for your work."
8Asa heard that prophecy. He paid attention to the words of the prophet Azariah, the son of Oded. So Asa became bolder than ever. He removed the statues of gods from the whole land of Judah and Benjamin. He also removed them from the towns he had captured in the hills of Ephraim. He did it because he hated those gods. He repaired the altar of the Lord. It was in front of the porch of the Lord's temple.
9Then he gathered all of the people of Judah and Benjamin together. He also gathered together the people from Ephraim, Manasseh and Simeon who had settled among them. Large numbers of people had come over to him from Israel. They came because they saw that the Lord his God was with him.
10They gathered in Jerusalem. It was the third month of the 15th year of Asa's rule. 11At that time they sacrificed to the Lord 700 head of cattle and 7,000 sheep and goats. The animals were among the things they had taken after the battle.
12They made a covenant to look to the Lord, the God of their people. They looked to him with all their heart and soul. 13All those who wouldn't look to the Lord, the God of Israel, would be killed. It wouldn't matter how important they were. It wouldn't matter whether they were men or women. 14They took an oath and made a promise to the Lord. They praised him out loud. They shouted. They blew trumpets and horns.
15All of the people of Judah were happy about the promise they had made. They turned to God with all their heart. When they did, they found him. So the Lord gave them peace and rest on every side.
16King Asa also removed his grandmother Maacah from her position as queen mother. That's because she had made a pole that was used to worship the goddess Asherah. The Lord hated it. So Asa cut it down. He broke it up. He burned it in the Kidron Valley.
17Asa didn't remove the high places from Israel. But he committed his whole life completely to the Lord. 18He and his father had set apart silver, gold and other articles to the Lord. He brought them into God's temple.
19There weren't any more wars until the 35th year of Asa's rule.

Photos of Labs at Night Show a Spooky, Soulful Side to Science
Science lab night-time routine goes like this: the experiment concludes, equipment winds slowly down. You rub bleary eyes, stretch your stiff neck, hit "save" on the data for analysis tomorrow.

The W. E. Upjohn Center for the Study of Geographical Change:
Geographic Information Science has transcended the boundaries of geographic sciences into a wide range of fields many of which are represented at Western Michigan University. We provide opportunities to WMU faculty and students to acquire some of these skills.
The earth's surface has been naturally evolving since the dawn of time. Human beings surely bring about change as well as spread the news of it. Which begs the question: what existed before? Our aim is to preserve historical printed representations of the earth, forming a digital basis for analysis of changes over time, enabling the study of what's been altered and to what extent, ultimately contributing to a multi-disciplinary understanding of geographical change. We help bridge the gap from what was to what is.
We can help you in research that requires the use of GIS in analyzing your research data. We can also provide training in GIS that is tailored to particular programs or to individual or group need.
We can also digitally capture and geo-reference your historical maps, charts and airphotos. We can digitize your oversize books, drawings and atlases. And we do so at the highest optical resolution and the lowest geometrical distortion anywhere. Hyper-accurate imaging of rare, valuable documents is our specialty. Nobody else does what we do worldwide. Non-destructively too—no sheet-fed scanning. Let us non-invasively apply our technology to your materials.

experts offer Savings Advice You Can Bank On
How do you set more money aside, whether for retirement or a Caribbean vacation?
"The key is to have concrete goals," said Paul Yurachek, an Ameriprise Financial private wealth adviser at Gurtz, Yurachek, Brostrom & Associates. "You have to ask: What am I saving for? Some people save for education. Others may want to take a vacation every year. Setting aside X amount each month for a specific goal makes saving easier."
Three personal-finance experts offer money-saving strategies:
The bottom line
It's never too early (or too late) to start saving. Have a clear plan that outlines specific goals and don't try to do it alone. Have your bank automatically set aside money each month and take advantage of free budgeting resources such as at Ameriprise.com and SchwabMoneyWise.com.
General tips
Don't go it alone: Make saving painless by automatically transferring X amount of money from your checking account to your savings account monthly. "That's what makes the 401(k) workplace retirement plan helpful. You adapt your spending to the money coming in," said Janet Bodnar, editor of Kiplinger's Personal Finance. And do it at the beginning of each month.
Have more than one savings account. Separating savings into accounts for necessities, vacations, emergencies and large expenditures helps you organize your budget.
Know where to put savings: If you're saving for retirement, put your money in a 401(k). If you're saving for a down payment on a house or car, put that money in a savings account or a money-market fund.
For retirement
Age matters: Start 'em young, folks. The later you start saving, the larger percentage of your income you need to put away. "If (you start saving) in your early 20s, 10 to 15 percent (of gross income) is recommended," said Antwone Harris, a certified financial planner with Charles Schwab. "If you start saving in your 30s, we recommend 15 to 25 percent.
And at 40, we recommend saving 25 to 35 percent."
Always meet your match: If you put money into a retirement savings account such as a 401(k), most companies will match your savings up to a certain percentage. On average, companies will match 3 to 5 percent. "Always save enough to capture any employer match. That's free money," Bodnar said.
For emergencies
Save for the rainiest day: Money set aside for unemployment or unexpected circumstances should be separate from your retirement savings, because you never want to dip into a 401(k) early. "Rule of thumb: If you're single, you should have six months of living expenses saved in a separate savings account," Harris said. "If there are two incomes, each person should save three months' worth of expenses."
For vacations
Visualize the goal: Put a photo of Paris on your refrigerator if you're saving for "La Vie en Rose." Seeing a constant reminder of the goals you're saving for is the best way to ensure you'll reach them.
Earmark your savings: Some personal finance experts still believe in the old-fashioned envelope system of setting aside a fixed amount of cash for clothing or entertainment each month. Psychologically, it helps to earmark savings, whether you use a savings account or a piggy bank.

text: Hi all. I don't know if I have given this enough thought but I will ask anyway. I know that a CMOS is an inverter, so for input High you will get output Low, and for input Low you will get output High. I am trying to find this out mathematically (or even just logically) but I can't seem to do it. Say Vdd (power supply to pMOS) is 5v and Vin is also 5v. In this case the PMOS will be in cutoff mode and the NMOS will be in saturation mode. Vgs of the NMOS will be 5v. I don't know what to do next. I know that the saturation current equation for the NMOS does not include Vd (or Vds) when channel length modulation is neglected, so I have no idea how to get Vd of NMOS (AKA: Vd of PMOS, AKA: Vout). PS: Another thing that is bothering me, is when say Vin is 5v (and Vdd is also 5v), the NMOS should have current passing through it (since in saturation) but the PMOS should not have current passing through it (since in cutoff). Kind of a paradox in my opinion. But it kind of makes sense that Vo will be zero in order to negate this current. Anyone?

Skippy the Bush Kangaroo is an Australian television series created by John McCallum, produced from 1966–1968, telling the adventures of a young boy and his intelligent pet kangaroo, and the various visitors to the fictional Waratah National Park in Duffys Forest, near Sydney, New South Wales.
Ninety-one 30-minute episodes were made over the three seasons of production. At the time of first screening, Australian television was still in black and white, however, the show was filmed in colour on 16 mm film to increase its international marketability, especially in the United States and Canada, where it aired in syndication between 1969 and 1972. The Nine Network readily repeated the series several times after Australian television switched to colour transmission in 1975.
The series was dubbed into Spanish in Mexico, where it is known as Skippy el canguro, and has been distributed to most Spanish-speaking countries, including Cuba and Spain, where it became very popular. The series crossed the Iron Curtain and was aired in Czechoslovakia and Soviet Union in the 1970s and 1980s, and is still being broadcast in Iran.

Ohio State Fan Gets Bucked Parking At Coliseum
I hate paying for parking, even at sporting events. To give you an example, I once walked a whole mile to get from street parking to an LA Galaxy game. (I live in LA, so for me walking a mile is the equivalent of the Battan Death March.) So when I paid $25 for parking yesterday by USC before the game, I did so through extremely gritted teeth.
But that's nothing compared to what one Ohio State fan paid. As reported by the LA TIMES ALL THINGS TROJAN blog, the poor sap wound up paying a total of $180 for a prime parking spot before the game.

Pedro Orrente
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pedro Orrente (1580–1645) was a Spanish painter of the Baroque period.
Born in the village of Murcia. Orrente appears to have studied with el Greco in Toledo, where he painted a San Ildefonso before the apparition of St Leocadia and the Birth of Christ for the cathedral. He often moved, painting in Murcia and Cuenca. In Valencia, he painted for the Cathedral. He set up a school, and among his pupils were Esteban March and García Salmerón. In Madrid, he painted works transferred to the Palacio del Buen Retiro. He traveled to Seville, where he met Francisco Pacheco. Returning to Castille, died in Valencia and buried in the parish de San Martín. Known for paintings of animals and landscapes, as well a history paintings.

The hotel is perfect for a family. The kids loved the pool and the breakfast bar was great. We did not care for the loud and rude people who were across from us in the hallway. We called management four times as did our relatives traveling with us. We still had to continue listening to it until 3:30 am! You would expect this at a motel 6 but not at this nice of a hotel.

What should I do?! help!!
My best friend and her boyfriend are coming over for dinner tomorrow. They're vegan. DF is a meat and potatoes kind of guy. Last time they came, I made coconut mango curry with chickpeas over rice and puppodoms (sp?) he loved it, but I make it for him all of the time with chicken-he just didn't get the chicken this time. What can I make that everyone will enjoy?
I was thinking of doing eggplant parm. Half with cheese half without. They don't eat any dairy.
Quoting Snowpuma:
Sun dried tomatoes and Basil pasta, eggplant parmesan, summer veg & potato curry w nann sp? Veggie lasagna, stuffed grilled portobello mushrooms...

Things I liked: Sets up literally anywhere, indoors or out. Perfect for air pistol practice and checking your guns before a silhouette match.
Things I would have changed: nothing
What others should know: I would advise setting up at least 50' away when shooting rifles at this equipment, to minimize damage and ricochets.

Things I liked: It's a good value for the money.
Things I would have changed: The inside of the trap should be white to help see iron sights. I did a rattle can paint job on mine and it's much easier to use with the silhouettes. I painted the animals black.

Things I liked: Comparatively inexpensive, and easy to store away when not in use. For target shooting, just cut up cereal boxes to use as target backers, to get clean holes. I use target backers for all my target shooting.
Things I would have changed: Not much, for what it is.
What others should know: It is a sheet metal trap, so it is NOISY when hit. You can dampen the sound with a layer of duct seal on the outside back. The duct seal will absorb the reverberation and reduce the noise. Keep targets away from the edge of the trap. I accidentaly hit the edge of the trap, and the pellet fragments bounced back at my face, 6 meters away. So forget using multi bull targets with bulls next to the edge of the trap. For multi-bull targets I would use a larger trap. This is a sheet metal trap, if you want a trap that can take high velocity air guns w/o damage, get the Champion Heady Duty trap. Because this trap is not large, you need to make sure you have a good/safe backstop...just in case you miss the trap.

Severability: General Swallow all-o feasting on a French Fricassee!! William Holland, publisher. May 1799. Library of Congress.
Success with Severability: Trabert v. Consumer Portfolio Services.
In Trabert v. Consumer Portfolio Services, Inc., Case No. D065556 (4/1 March 3, 2015) (Haller, Aaron, Irion) (published), the Court of Appeal ordered the trial court (1) to vacate its order denying a motion to compel arbitration, and (2) to enter a new order severing unconscionable finality-exceptions from an arbitration agreement and granting defendant Consumer Portfolio Services, Inc.'s motion to compel arbitration. Yes, there were unconscionable provisions concerning the finality of the arbitration award, but those provisions could be deleted "without affecting the core purpose and intent of the arbitration agreement." Score one for severability.
Setback with Severability: Securitas Security Services USA, Inc.
In Securitas Security Services USA, Inc. v. Superior Court of San Diego County (Denise Edwards real party in interest), D066873 (4/1 Feb. 27, 2015) (O'Rourke, Nares, McIntyre) (published), the Court of Appeal issued a writ of mandate directing the superior court to vacate its order that the parties proceed to arbitrate Edward's claims, including her class action and representative claims brought under PAGA, and that the trial court enter a new order denying Securitas's amended motion to compel arbitration.
Here, the trial court correctly ruled that CLS Transportation Los Angeles v. Iskanian rendered a PAGA waiver within the dispute resolution agreement unenforceable. However, the trial court then erred by invalidating and severing an otherwise enforceable class action waiver provision, and sending the entire complaint, including class action and PAGA claims, to arbitration.
An express nonseverability clause torpedoed Securitas' argument for severability. "Immediately after the class action waiver, this clause provides: 'Notwithstanding any other clause contained in this Agreement, the preceding sentence [referring to the class action waiver] shall not be severable from this Agreement in any case in which the dispute to be arbitrated is brought as a class, collective or representative action.'" Thus, the entire dispute resolution agreement was unenforceable, because the PAGA waiver was unenforceable, and because the class action waiver could not be severed from the unenforceable PAGA waiver.
Securitas must have hoped that the nonseverability clause would allow it to snuff a class, collective, or representative claim in arbitration. Here, however, the nonseverability clause seems to have back-fired, because the PAGA waiver infected the arbitration provision, and the nonseverability clause tied the fate of the waiver of class, collective or representative claims to the unenforceable PAGA waiver.

20 apartments for rent near Capitol Gateway, Atlanta, GA
Apartments in Capitol Gateway, Atlanta, GA
The Downtown area is the heart and soul of Atlanta's tourism industry, but until recently, it's been an area in which many residents work, but few live. Like any major city, Atlanta's Downtown area attracts both businesses and visitors with an array of tourist attractions, corporate headquarters, and top-notch restaurants, but it hasn't always been popular with residents. The Capitol Gateway area is indicative of a sense of revitalization in Downtown Atlanta, drawing more residents in with upscale condominiums, apartments, and townhouses.
Located between downtown's Memorial Drive and Capitol Avenue, the Capitol Gateway area is one that's home to the Georgia State Capitol, as well as a lively urban neighborhood. Near Georgia State and the Georgia State MARTA station, it's convenient for those wishing to travel to virtually any section of the city, and easy to access from I-75/85 and I-20. The major draw of the area is the location, since it is easy to reach many of Atlanta's major attractions from the Capitol Gateway neighborhood, including Zoo Atlanta, Turner Field, Grant Park, Oakland Cemetery, and the Carter Center.
The Capitol Gateway area is home to affordable housing options for students, due to the fact that both Georgia State and Georgia Tech are located in nearby areas.

How about traditionally earth-dwelling creatures in a world where masses of rock and soil circle the world in ultra-low orbit? The animals or whatevers would have to have some method of moving from one floating megalith to another, hence the idea of wings.
No, actually, I BS'ed that whole idea out of thin air. I just thought, "Bulette... Bullet... that song... bullet with butterfly wings.... bulette with butterfly wings....yeah."
So FWIW, that's a serious suggestion.
a species that lives in the vast emptyness of outerspace would be awsome
Legendary Chupacabras [Choo-pah-ka-bras]. The outer space version.
This is a creature that has been left behind on Earth, stranded from its "owners", who prays on livestock for nurishment. It has the face of a gargoyle, wings, and walks erect. Its super-large eyes reflect a strange yellow-orange glow when hit with a bright light. When shot, it emmits a loud, strange screeching sound that echoes. It has been described as a yellow "blur" as it moves, by some witnesses, and others say it's green. When it comes into contact with people it will sit there and stare back at you, as if trying to communicate, then it leaps into the air and disappears. UFO's have been sighted days prior to a Chupacabras sighting or livestock deaths.
Sorry, couldn't resist this one after watching a National Geographic documentary on Chupacabras.

Hey Foz and all!
The past two COWs have really turned up the heat which I like. I was thinking that perhaps in a few future COWs we could all have a general idea (like anything posted above) and then one specific feature wether it be number of limbs, fur, scales, etc. That way we can enjoy the freedom of what the creature looks like, but we all have a unifying theme much like the triped did.
What say you?
There is no "I" in team, but there is an "I" in pie. And there's an "i" in meat pie. Meat is the anagram of team...~Shaun "Shaun of the Dead"
you mean for example something like "3 headed Dragon", like "dragon" as general topic and "3-headed" as specification?
kind of. i think that the general could be 'dragon' and the global specific would be 'three-headed' in this example. does that make sense to you?
There is no "I" in team, but there is an "I" in pie. And there's an "i" in meat pie. Meat is the anagram of team...~Shaun "Shaun of the Dead"
well it makes sense and is ok as another form for topics...

Flip.to Garners 38,000 New Social Connections for International Palms Cocoa Beach in Just Two Months
July 9, 2014 6:40am
ORLANDO, FL - JULY 9, 2014 - The International Palms Resort Cocoa Beach has been recommended by guests to over 38,000 friends and family since implementing Flip.to in mid-May 2014.
"We were thrilled to see immediate results," commented Tim Michaud, General Manager of the International Palms Resort Cocoa Beach. "In under two months we gained 18 direct bookings, over 1000 prospective new guests and over 38,000 social connections as a result of Flip.to. It has created a simple and immediate way to empower our guests to become brand advocates and deliver personal endorsements in a very engaging way."
Flip.to turns guests into a huge extension of a hotel's marketing force. Starting right at the point of booking, guests share with their friends and family about their upcoming trip to the International Palms Resort. This exposure to a huge pool of people in a friendly and trusted way is just the start of the marketing funnel. Flip.to then serves up a custom experience on the hotel's website for each and every friend or relative of the guest, taking them down the path toward a future booking at the hotel.
"38,000 friends and family members of guests now know that International Palms Cocoa Beach is the place to go in Florida! They also have a compelling reason to book directly with International Palms," says Debi Moses, Senior Director of Sales for Flip.to. "Before Flip.to International Palms couldn't effectively take advantage of the influence their guests have, but now they see how powerful the guest referral channel can be."
To find out more about how Flip.to can help create a significant, measurable impact for your hotel, please get in touch with Debi Moses at email@example.com or visit www.flip.to.

|It has been suggested that this article be merged with Balkars to Karachay-Balkars. (Discuss) Proposed since September 2015.
|This article relies too much on references to primary sources. (February 2011)
Karachay patriarchs in the 19th century
|Total population
|Regions with significant populations
|Karachay, Russian in Karachay–Cherkess Republic
|Sunni Islam
|Related ethnic groups
The Karachays or Alans[1] (Karachay-Balkar: sg. - alan, pl. - alanla[2][1][3][4][5][6][7]) are Turkic speaking people of the North Caucasus, mostly situated in the Russian Karachay–Cherkess Republic. They constitute the one nation with the Balkars (Karachai-Balkars) and they are direct descendants of the Turkic-speaking part of the Alans.[1] On the territory of the Karachai was the capital of Alania (Lower-Arkhyz settlement).[8]
The Karachays are a Turkic people descended from the Turkic-speaking part of the Alans,[1] and share their language with the other Turkic tribes. In Turkic, "Karachay" means "Black River".
The state of Alania was established in the Middle Ages and had its capital in Maas, which some authors locate in Arkhyz, the mountains currently inhabited by the Karachay. In the 14th century, Alania was destroyed by Timur and the decimated population dispersed into the mountains. Timur's incursion into the North Caucasus introduced the local nations to Islam.
In 1828 the Russian army invaded the Caucasus region, including Karachay. On October 20, 1828 the Battle of Hasaukinskoe took place, a battle in which the Russian emperor's troops, under the command of General Emanuel killed or injured 163 people. The day after the battle, as Russian troops were approaching Dzhurtu, the Karachay elders met with the Russian leaders. In order to prevent the massacre of Karachay villages, an agreement was reached for the inclusion of the Karachay into the Russian Empire.
After this annexation, the internal self-government of Karachay was left intact, including its officials and courts. Interactions with neighboring Muslim peoples continued to take place based on both folk customs and Sharia law. In Karachay, soldiers were taken from Karachai Amanat, pledged and oath of loyalty, and were assigned arms.
From 1831 to 1860, the Karachays joined the bloody anti-Russian struggles carried out by the Caucasian peoples. Between 1861 and 1880, to escape reprisals by the Russian army, large numbers of Karachays migrated to Turkey.
In 1942 the Germans permitted the establishment of a Karachay National Committee to administer their "autonomous region"; the Karachays were also allowed to form their own police force and establish a brigade that was to fight with the Wehrmacht.[9] This relationship with Nazi Germany resulted, when the Russians regained control of the region in November 1943, with the Karachays being charged with collaboration with Nazi Germany. The majority of the total population of about 80,000 were forcibly deported and resettled in Central Asia, mostly in Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan. In the first two years of the deportations, disease and famine caused the death of 35% of the population; of 28,000 children, 78%, or almost 22,000 perished.[citation needed]
The Karachay nation, along with the Balkars and Nogays occupy the valleys and foothills of the Central Caucasus in the river valleys of the Kuban, Big Zelenchuk River, Malka, Baksan, Cherek and others.
The Karachays and Balkars are very proud of the symbol of their nations, Mount Elbrus, the highest twin-peaked mountain in Europe with an altitude 5,642 meters.
Language and religion[edit]
The Karachay dialect of the Karachay-Balkar language comes from the northwestern branch of Turkic languages. The Kumyks, who live in northeast Dagestan, speak the same language, the Kumyk language. The majority of the Karachay people are followers of Islam.
Many Karachays migrated to Turkey after the Russian annexation of the Karachay nation in the early 19th century. Karachays were also forcibly displaced to the Central Asian states of Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyzstan during Joseph Stalin's relocation campaign in 1944. Since the Nikita Khrushchev era in the Soviet Union, many Karachays have been repatriated to their homeland from Central Asia. Today, there are sizable Karachay communities in Turkey (centered around Afyonkarahisar), Uzbekistan, the United States, and Germany.
The Karachay's isolation among the Caucasus Mountains was one of the reasons for the establishment of the Karachay's unique character.[citation needed]
Karachay people live in communities that are divided into Families and clans (Tukum). A tukum is based on a family's lineage and there are roughly 32 Karachay tukums. Prominent tukums include: Aci, Bolur, Batcha (Batca), Baychora, Bayrimuk (Bayramuk), Bostan, Catto, Cosar (Çese), Duda, Hubey (Hubi), Karabash, Laypan, Lepshoq, Ozden, Silpagar, Teke, and Toturkul.[citation needed]
Karachay people are very independent, and have strong traditions and customs which dominate many aspects of their lives: e.g. weddings, funerals, and family pronouncements. They are fiercely loyal to both their immediate family and their "tukum". They will never offend a guest. Cowardice is the most serious shame for a male.[citation needed]

I brought 3 pair of different color to rotate, because I go to the gym everyday and spend 2 hrs of workout. This fit perfectly and doesn't hug to tight and the underarm is loosely where my underarm is breathable. The tee shirt dry very quickly and I doesn't see the sweat spot on my shirt. This fabric is has a smooth silky feeling. Also no matter how often I reuse after following next day there is no odor. ... read more
My wife kept checking on this tank for 3 months until they restocked in her size and ordered it immediately. She loves the style with the thin straps and more open back. She also loves the length, not too short, not too long. As always w Adidas, the quality is top notch - moves well and breathes well. Definite recommend ... read more
I was so excited to know that Adidas has an operation with Stella McCartney so I bought this tank and the design as well as the quality is beyond expectation! I wore it immediately after wash and went to workout. I just wanna buy another one ... read more
Love the design of this top! And the colour was a spectacular purple, often colours are different in real life, but his one matches the web picture pretty well. I thought the fit/style would be a bit looser fitting...but it was more fitted. I probably would have bought the next size up so it was a bit longer and free swinging. Overall, very happy. Oh... A vied SUPER FAST! Overnight across 2 states! ... read more
Very nice, light stretchy material. Forget their size charts. Runs small so size up. I'm a 44" chest and an XL is just barely OK, almost too tight. Recommended. BTW, I bought the Climachill Supernove Singlet at the same time. It was huge and ran large. An XL in that style would have fit an elephant, So if you buy that, size down. Weird. ... read more
The not so soft Climalite fabric is nearly see through. They are for fitting,and lay nice. However, I am 6'1" and they come down past my butt. Also, the bottom hem is very snug. This may help them stay tucked in, but I don't care for it. The material is not as soft as I would have hoped. This may be due to whatever Climalite treatment they have. I am hoping they soften after a few washings. I may replace these soon with a premium brand. ... read more
I bought this top in the blue colour and I absolutely love it. It's such good value for money and looks really great on. The fit is so flattering - it doesn't cling anywhere but is tight enough to run in. Very very lightweight so lovely in hot weather. However, I also bought this top in pink which is being returned. The colour is really fluorescent but the problem I have is that it's very see-through and I could see my belly button through the top which was a bit much! Don't know if this was a one off or all the pink vests are like this. ... read more
Really good tank, but length is inconsistent. You'll buy 2 packs today and wait 2 week and buy another few packs and the length size differs very noticeably and it a honestly an extreme inconvenience not knowing what ur gettin. At times its really bad and an extreme inconvenience. I prefer my tanks long due to the fact that after several washes they shrink anyway, but overall this TANK is better than any other Tank out. I guarantee that. ... read more
Not much more you can ask for in a quality tank. I really like the way it fits snug despite me being a thinner guy. The cotton is very soft, no rubbing or itching. I've worn as undergarments, for leisure, and I've even played ball in one during an impromptu pick up game. They've performed well enough for me to have purchased quite a few in both colors, white & black. I did notice one begin to seperate at the neck band after a few washes, but one in maybe around 15 didn't upset me too much. The only other issue I find is in the price...wished they'd be more around $20. But overall I like them. ... read more

potty training
Comments (5)
Good luck
Just wanted to wish you good luck! We are starting next week while I am off for winter break.
David (5/09) I Molley (7/12)
^11/10 @ 10wks^ I ^6/11 @ 9wks^
I am not a pro and I don't even know if we are doing it right lol but we are in the process right now.
I have a son - so it may be a little different. I can tell you MY experience and what has worked.
My son's daycare told me, to potty train, put the kids in sweatpants without underwear. Take them to the potty every 30 min. It seems to have been working. here is my story - if you care to read it.
I tried to train my son in a small potty seat and he wanted nothing to do with it. I bought one of those rings that go on the regular toilet and it has worked.
Since my son is in daycare all day, we started by part time training. One night he said he wanted to do pee pee in the potty so I took him and to my surprise, he went! I left him w/o a diaper the rest of the night and he went one more time.
The next day he was in a diaper all day at school and then when he got home, we took the diaper off. He did wonderful and I made sure to take him to the potty 1 time an hour or whenever he told me he had to go.
We did this for an entire week. We had 1 pee accident in his pants and one night I made the mistake of bare bottom and he accidentally pooped on the floor.
Friday night (this past Fri) DH too him to Chuck E Cheese in a diaper. Afterwards they went to BK and DS told DH - We go home, I have to pee pee in potty. So they came home. DS was bone dry in his diaper and did do pee pee in the potty and then after a min or so, he asked to go again and we ran to the potty - and to our surprise, he said - GO AWAY so we stood by the door where he couldn't see us and he pooed in the potty too!!
Saturday he went all day no diaper no accidents but did ask for a diaper to poop, but he did have a little diarrhea.
Sunday I took DS to my moms house and decided to drive there with no diaper - we did stop at BRU on the way and we stopped at the potty (where he didn't go) and then drove to my moms house (another 15 min) and he didn't pee. I was very happy. He did have 2 accidents this day. Once before we left, when I was in the shower and once while at my moms house but he did use the potty to pee and poop again.
Mon he was at school with a diaper but did great at home w/ no diaper.
Tuesday (yesterday) he was home with DH all day and called me at work at 9am shouting I DID POOPIE IN THE POTTY (he was so proud) and did pee in the potty all day. DH even gave him a nap w no diaper (I wouldn't have done that) but lucky for DH there were no accidents lol
I hope to send him diaper free next week to school.
Sorry that was long.

Be consistant and have fun with it. Make the potty a fun and exciting place to be. DD has "Potty Books" specific for when she is using the bathroom (Abby Uses the Potty, Everybody Poops, etc.). We also use a sticker chart to mark her potty uses/successes for the day.
IMO it isn't easy (at first) but totally worth it.
If we have to explain it, you might not like it here -ErmahFergah
I started about 9 months ago getting him used to the potty and letting him go with me to the potty. He would sit on the potty before bath time and again before bed before Black Friday.
After a good 3 days of only a diaper overnight he is doing awesome. Daycare is cooperating with no pull ups. Only putting him in a diaper at naptime & overnight. He asks for big boy pants now and says no baby diapers, lol!
I started out by giving him prizes(dollar store stuff-stickers, small cars, anything to get him excited). We also had a sticker chart. Then my dad had him for an afternoon and started giving him quarters(treasure like Jake & the Pirates) to get him to go.
He still will not go on his own to pee, but as long as he sits on the potty every 45-60 minutes he is good.
Surprisingly he went #2 on the potty the first day!!!!
It just takes alot of consistency and hanging with it.
Trying new ideas to get them to want to use the potty. He rarely has an accident at daycare for the last 2 weeks! Occasionally at home, but I blame myself for that.
I'm no pro & bribery may not be the way to go, but it's working for us!

Reading temperature sensors with Perl
Linux lets tinkerers connect their hardware creations to computers. We'll show you how you can use a simple Perl interface to check the temperature of your home or office while you're away.
It's not so long ago that users had to write their own device drivers to add hardware. But with the standardization of USB, and with fully-functional hot-plugging support in kernel 2.6, things have become far easier. The temperature sensor used in this article, a Dallas Semiconductor DS18S20 ([3]), can be controlled via the one-wire bus, which is driven by a USB dongle attached to the computer. The free owfs control software at [2] can request data via a Perl interface. Instead of one-wire, the bus should really be called two-wire, as two thin copper wires (typically in a single sheathing) connect the sensor to the USB dongle (see Figure 1). At the other end there is a western connector (RJ11), which plugs into the USB dongle.

Studio Sessions
Vampire Weekend: A-Punks On Afro-Pop
Set List
- "Mansard Roof"
- "Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa"
- "Campus"
- "A-Punk"
This segment, from Jan. 24, 2008, is part of our Vintage Cafe series, in which we revisit some of our best studio performances.
Vampire Weekend emerged from a fertile New York indie-rock scene; all four members met while attending Columbia University. Still, they stand out for two reasons. First, their endearingly wordy lyrics make Vampire Weekend's songs sound collegiate in the best possible way. And second, their unique sound inventively mixes contemporary American indie-rock, Western classical music and South African traditional music.
The band aims to capture its Afro-pop fandom in its songwriting, and it does well: Stylish songs such as "A-Punk" blend ska and woodwinds, while "Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa" invokes African dance music, but with lyrics about raging hormones. Vampire Weekend's highly anticipated self-titled full-length is out now.

Legal advice? pretty important about a motorcyel sale, guy wants money back
So I sold a legit bike last night. It was my zzr600. It had a reconstructed tittle. The guy knew this. well know he wants his money back for the bike because he decided he did not wat a tittle that said the color was red( blue plastics replaced red ones from crash) He said he doesn't feel sure anymore. I have a bill of sale and all.
Do i have to give him the money back, or is it a done deal. I have a bill of sale saying he payed 3k for the bike and so on with the vin on it. The tittle is in my Dads name still and they were gonna transfer it today. Any advice?
BTW bike was mine but in dads name because I cant afford insurance at 18.
And bike was inspected by Louisiana State police and passed. It is insured and tittled. He knows all this.
I want to say that he knew what he was getting into and changing his mind is no reason for a refund on a bike. But I don't know how far that guy might take it to get his money back. Did you discuss anything about the sale being final? Anything on the bill of sale?
If you don't think the guy might take you to Judge Judy or get a lawyer, then I'd tell him....SORRY you bought it and you knew what you were getting. But if you want to be a nice guy, then I guess you could give him his refund, minus any of your expenses for paper work.
hope it works out tell us what happens
ok. Guy called me a few min ago. As of right now, he is still meeting us to sign papers so, I guess i can wipe the sweat off my forehead.
That kind of stuff varies from state to state but usually once you got the money and they take the bike it's a done deal unless you want to be nice.
If you have a bill of sale, signed by the buyer, it's a done deal.
It's just like if you were to sign papers on a truck or car at the dealer. Once all that stuff is signed, it's yours.
If you asked them, they'd be happy to buy it back...at a price considerably lower than you paid them for it.
I think this guy figured that out...
caveat emptor, let the buyer beware.
As long as you've been up front with everything, and the Bill of Sale states "as is" then it's his.
Like others said, what is sold is sold, you have no obligation to give him his money back because the title says it is red. If I were you I'd offer to buy the bike back for $2500, lol.
it is what it is..

BRIDGEPORT, Conn. (AP) -- A man charged with killing another man with an ax and eating body parts is set to return to a Connecticut courtroom for a hearing on whether prosecutors have enough evidence to continue pursuing a murder charge.
A probable cause hearing is scheduled for Monday morning in Bridgeport Superior Court in the case of 35-year-old Tyree Smith, a Florida resident who grew up in Ansonia, Conn.
Smith is charged with murdering Angel Gonzalez in Bridgeport on Dec. 15. Police say Smith ate one of Gonzalez's eyeballs and part of his brain. He was arrested in his hometown of Lynn Haven, Fla., in January.
Gonzalez's relatives have said Smith deserves to be condemned to spend the rest of his life in prison.
Smith's lawyer has declined to comment.

Shell reports sharp drop in profits
Energy giant's profits slide to $6.6bn as oil and gas prices fall worldwide
One-Minute Read
Shell has reported a drop in profits of six per cent for the third quarter and warned that the global economy is weakening "just about everywhere", reports The Guardian. The energy giant saw its profits slide to $6.6bn as oil and gas prices fell worldwide, with US gas down 38 per cent in the year and Brent crude down almost four per cent over the same period. Shell's chief financial officer Simon Henry said that "European demand, specifically consumer and commercial industrial demand, is pretty weak across the board and there are few signs of recovery."

series 6,, what will it be like

Re: series 6,, what will it be like
Im guessing that if the film goes well it would be set within the new TOS era. I think it would be good as they could keep the fresh feel and way the universe can run without thinking "oh its going to be ok we know Earth is around in TNG" like there was with Enterprise.
Personally Id set it on a ship slightly smaller than the 1701 but which still looks like that ship (not a scaled down version)
This is all going on the assumption that this renewed universe will be slightly different to how the current one has played out...and the assumption that it will be good.

LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) _ A judge has found an Illinois man competent to stand trial on charges filed after two of his children were found bound and blindfolded in a Walmart parking lot.
During a hearing Tuesday, District Judge Paula Martin ruled 52-year-old Aldolfo Gomez of Northlake, Ill., could stand trial on multiple counts of child abuse and aggravated child endangerment.
He and his wife, Deborah Gomez, were charged after their 5- and 7-year-old children were found bound on June 13 in Lawrence.
Three other children, ages 12, 13 and 15, were inside the family's vehicle but were not restrained.
The Lawrence Journal-World reports (http://bit.ly/OrlgM2 ) Gomez also dropped a request to represent himself. He told the judge he and attorney Elbridge Griffy had reconciled after a disagreement.
The children are in protective custody.

I had a kid who threatened to kill me one year because I gave him an F. Another teacher caught one of my students writing 'Kill Mr. Vallee' in his weekly planner in the section labeled 'Weekly Goals and Objectives.' And the school was freakin' out. They didn't know what to do about it. They kept asking me if I felt threatened, and I'm like, 'Why? This kid hasn't met any goals in his objectives all year.'

Energy prices are high, with no end in sight. The electric company is plotting their next rate hike right now. They have no choice; the grid uses expensive fossil fuels to generate power. The electric company will raise their rates, it is inevitable. Yet, zero down solar power saves you thousands of dollars in electric bills.
Antiquated fossil fuels pollute, and keep rising in price. In addition, there will come a day when fossil fuels run dry, because the supply is dwindling. Solar uses the sun to produce electricity. Sunlight is in ample supply and is clean. The only thing needed to capture and convert sunlight into electricity is solar panels, and their costs have come down considerably.
Consider that zero down solar is available along with federal and state tax credits along with rebate programs, all designed to save homeowners money for going solar. The grid is going to keep raising their rates. This is because the fossil fuels they depend on keep increasing in price, and they pass on these price hikes to you. The solution is solar power.
Most of us are concerned about the negative impact fossil fuels have on our environment. Solar is clean and renewable. Fossil fuels are expensive. Solar uses the power of the sun which is free. The grid is going to keep raising their rates. Solar saves you thousands of dollars in electric bills. Fossil fuels will eventually run out. The sun is an infinite source of power. The future of electricity is solar power.
Another great benefit of installing residential solar panels is it increases property values, even in a depressed real estate market. Yet you do not add to your tax burden. Homes that have solar installed are prime real estate for savvy homebuyers. They don't want to keep paying high electric bills anymore than the rest of us. In the future, increasingly more homebuyers will insist their homes be equipped with solar panels.
Solar panels cost less than a few years ago, yet are more advanced than ever. Many homes that install solar panels produce more power than their home can use. You then simply sell it to the grid. This lowers your already low electric bill even more.
In the end, the grid is plotting their next rate hike right now. They have no choice, they use fossil fuels to produce electricity and fossil fuels are becoming more expensive. The solution is to install zero down solar panels!

Maddie is a 5 year old little bundle of joy. Anyone looking for a love bug, then Maddie is your snuggle bunny. Who wouldn't want to be met at the door with a smiling bully that's butt is wiggling a mile a minute! She does have a bit of a hoarding problem and you will find all of her toys on her bed and she always has a Nylabone in her mouth. I have to admit that she will need a home with full access to the couch and bed. She sleeps in bed all night and it is quite the chore to wake her up in the morning, she is not a morning gal. She is house trained and crate trained, but we let her run free during the day with her foster sister. She does not play with the other dogs, but gets along with them perfectly. Need a companion for your older dog or for yourself, Maddie is your girl. She has already stolen our hearts with her sweet as pie personality! She will need eye drops forever and regular wrinkle cleaning of course. Maddie is up to date on her vaccinations, on a heartworm preventative and spayed. Her adoption fee is $500.
