|Singles from Songs from the Tainted Cherry Tree
Songs from the Tainted Cherry Tree is the debut studio album by English singer-songwriter Diana Vickers. Originally set for a November 2009 release, the album was postponed due to Vickers' leading role in the West End play The Rise and Fall of Little Voice, and it was finally released on 3 May 2010 in the United Kingdom.[2]
The lead single, "Once", was released on 19 April 2010 and peaked at number one on the UK Singles Chart. On 7 May 2010, "Songs from the Tainted Cherry Tree" entered the Irish Albums Chart at number 7 and on 9 May 2010, the album peaked at number one on the UK Albums Chart selling 35,951 copies in the first week of release.[4] In August 2010, the album was certified Gold by the British Phonographic Industry.[5] It has sold over 200,000 copies in the UK.
Shortly after being eliminated from The X Factor in 2008, it was announced that Vickers had been signed to RCA Records and that she had begun working on her debut album. Recorded between April 2009 to January 2010, a five-track album sampler was leaked in January 2010. The track "Jumping Into Rivers" had previously been leaked in July 2009. The track-listing and artwork was changed a number of times, causing delays.[6] The album title came from a track written by Chris Braide and Vickers called "The Boy Who Murdered Love", about which she later stated:
Basically, I co-wrote a song with Chris Braide called "The Boy Who Murdered Love" and there's a line in there about a tainted cherry tree and I found it very poetic. It painted imagery of the forbidden fruit and Adam and Eve and this boy that's absolutely beautiful and so tempting but so wrong for you!— Vickers, [7]
Braide also collaborated with Vickers on three other tracks, "Me & You", "Four Leaf Clover" and "N.U.M.B", which were recorded at the songwriter-producer's London studio.[8] The debut album saw Vickers work with an array of other writers and producers including Nerina Pallot, Andy Chatterley, Ellie Goulding, Cass Lowe, Savan Kotecha, Alexis Strum, Dev Hynes aka Lightspeed Champion, Guy Sigsworth and Starsmith.[9] Vickers' debut single titled "Once" was co-penned by Cathy Dennis and Eg White[10] and produced and mixed by Mike Spencer. Vickers also collaborated with Gary Lightbody, the frontman of the alternative rock band Snow Patrol.[7][11] The album contains one cover version, the song "Hit", originally by The Sugarcubes.

Upon its release, Songs from the Tainted Cherry Tree generated mixed reviews from music critics. Mayer Nissim of Digital Spy awarded the album five out of five stars, stating that Vickers and her collaborators "have crafted an album that's drenched in accessible pop melodies while never sacrificing the charm and personality".[14] Kevin Courtney of the Irish Times called it a "blend of pop and indie [that] works in her favour" along with having a "few catchy songs".[16] Johnny Dee of Virgin Media found it commercial but without sacrificing Vickers' "slightly eccentric charms" and noticed that it "works best when it's mixing beats with folky whisperings" concluding that "the girl's done great".[19] musicOMH's Ben Urdang gave the album three out of five stars, stating that "Vickers manages to achieve a consistency throughout so that the album sits comfortably as a fluid piece of work". He went on to add that although the album is not "groundbreaking nor perfect", it is "a solid start to her recording career".[17] Mike Diver from BBC Music praised Vickers' voice for the ability to "stand out from any crowd" but was not astounded by the lyrics and the album as a whole, stating that the impression it leaves is "compromised by songwriting by committee" and noticed that it would have been "considerably improved " with "a little more compositional guile".[12]
Simon Gage of Daily Express gave the album a scathing one out of five stars, criticising Vickers' "squawky" voice and describing it as a collection of "poppy, noisy and no doubt, expensive, songs made horrid".[13] The Independent Simon Price thought that it "consists mostly of forgettable dance pop and folktronica" and that it "doesn't stand out",[1] while Dan Gennoe of Yahoo! Music noticed that it is "too busy trying to keep everyone happy to be anything other than indistinct and polite".[20] David Smyth from the Evening Standard felt that Vickers' voice is "almost indistinguishable" from Ellie Goulding's and concluded by saying that "her songs are blander but the public seems open to a singer who will do more interesting work than this [the debut]".[15] Hugh Montgomery of The Observer felt that "despite employing indie-minded collaborators such as Ellie Goulding and Lightspeed Champion", the album was "given over to commercial box-ticking" and described it as "generic electro-pop with the kind of tasteful balladry that suggests a Dido in-waiting". However he noticed that it did not lack "potential hits". He also expressed the hope that Vickers' songwriting voice might in the future become as compelling as her singing one.[18] The album was regarded as "one of the best debut albums of 2010" by Jude Rogers in The Guardian.[21]
Chart performance[edit]
The album first entered the Irish album Chart on 29 April 2010 at number 7. On 9 May 2010, Songs from the Tainted Cherry Tree debuted on the UK Album Chart at number 1 replacing Plan B's The Defamation of Strickland Banks but was knocked off the top spot in its second week by Keane's Night Train. With the full release of second single, "The Boy Who Murdered Love", the album returned to the Top 15 on the UK Albums Chart, rising 29 places from number 42 to number 13.[4]
- "Once" was released as the album's lead single on 19 April 2010 in the United Kingdom. Upon its release it generated mainly positive reviews from critics, with the most positive coming from Nick Levine of Digital Spy who called it a "straight up brain-invader" with a "huge chorus" that is "hard to ignore".[22] The single achieved commercial success by debuting at number 3 in Ireland, number 5 on the EU Hot 100, number 2 in Scotland and number 1 in the United Kingdom. It also peaked at number 31 in South Korea without any promotion. In late May 2010, "Once" was added to radio playlists in Australia and New Zealand.
- "The Boy Who Murdered Love" was confirmed as the second single by Vickers on Twitter on 7 May 2010.[23] The music video premiered on 2 June 2010 via the MSN video player. Vickers' second single was officially released in the United Kingdom on 18 July 2010. The single was playlisted on Radio 1. On the week ending 25 July 2010, the single entered the UK Top 40 Chart at number 36, giving Vickers' her second consecutive Top 40 single. The following week "The Boy Who Murdered Love" charted in South Korea rising to its peak of 16.
To promote the album, Vickers went on a tour or the United Kingdom and Ireland throughout 2010.

Article Summary
Samsung has announced the successor to its EX1/TL500 compact launched in 2010. The new EX2F model features built-in wireless connectivity and while the F1.8 lens on the predecessor was pretty quick, Samsung has significantly improved on that for the new release with a (very) fast F1.4 wide-angle lens. As you might expect, the megapixel count has also increased (but not as much as you may think), and the video recording capabilities have been upped to 1080/30p.

Article Summary
Samsung's STORY Station drives will be the first 3.5-inch external hard drives to boast a standby power consumption of less than 1W. The typical standby power consumption of external hard drives is around 2.5W, so lowering that figure to 0.09W constitutes a reduction of more than 95 percent. The reduced standby power level easily meets requirements for the forthcoming European Union's EuP (Energy Using Products) Directive for Standby Regulation, which is effective from January 2010.

Special Choices : Education Next.
This was by far one of the most interesting blogs I have read in this class so far. This entire blog revolved around the issue of Special Education, which obviously will interest me. The topic of this blog discussed the rates of students considered to have a disability in private schools as opposed to public schools.
The results, I thought, were truly shocking. Since public schools have funding to make sure special education is taken care of, there are far more students considered to have some sort of a disability in a public school rather than a private school. Private schools offer vouchers rather than funding by the government. Since the parents are aware of both, they often send the child to a public school which guarantees that the fees of special education will be taken care of. However, many people do not realize that the funds for special education in a private school may also be taken care of completely with a voucher. I thought it was interesting that schools criteria and diagnoses are different due to funding.
I thought to myself while reading this, "Are the students in the private school actually receiving proper services?" Assuming that the schools are following the law, the answer is yes. So why is it such a large difference in special education between public and private schools? My only thought is that parents trust government funded schools over those run by other professionals. I have to disagree at some point, coming from a private school. Both schools have to attain certain goals. However, in a public school they must align with what the state wants, whereas in a private school, the bar is set high and the goals are set for personal purposes.
I'm not sure which would be more beneficial for students with disabilities. I suppose it depends on what specific needs the child has and if those needs could be met at a private school with less resources. Each case of students, no matter if they have a disability or not, is unique and can only be determined based on individual progress.
As I began to research different types of schools, I ran into the video of the Temple Grandin School. This school is obviously a private school, and not funded by the government. This also provides instruction for children with Autism and Asperger's. They focus on academics and social skills. Although a parent may think a private school may not be as beneficial, this video right here demonstrates the positive results of a private school education for a child with special needs.
To sum this all up, I believe that the basis of all education simply needs to foucs on proper accommodations for all students. Whether a child is diagnosed with special needs or not, and whether he or she attends a private of public school, the key to success for the student lies within the educator's ability to adapt. Funding or not, a teacher must have the tools and resources to teach lessons to the students they are responsible for teaching. In my career, it will be my main goal to focus on individuality of students and work toward their success by finding teaching techniques that works best for them. Individuality will allow them to succeed in school, and also foster a positive classroom environment for everyone around.

Cut and Paste is a kinetic sculpture. It was Stefan Schwabes final project at the Aix-en-Provence art school. Starting with a stack of white papers (A4) he created a mechanism wich permitts each sheet of paper one by one to take a lovely flight and to build up a new stack that way. If you do cut and paste on Microsoft Windows you may contemplate the nice metaphor of a flying sheet of paper that accompanies the digital file transfer process.

YouTube Features Face-Off for Political Candidates
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Corporate News, Editorial, Internet, Videos
It seems that televised "Meet the Candidates" programs are getting a jump start on YouTube, which will be airing videos posted by the candidates on their News and Politics site. Others can watch the vlogs and add their own video opinions and comments.
"Interactivity is what really fuels the engine on YouTube and candidates and users were striving for ways to communicate with each other," said Steve Grove, head of news and politics.
The idea comes from the site's "You Choose '08" initiative that began in Febuary to allow the candidates to strut their stuff. First up is Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, who yesterday responded to the issue "What do you believe is America's single greatest challenge and what would you do to address it?" It seems to us that the candidate, in a typically political move, managed to turn the tables by responding to the question with another question.

An Ode to a Vonnegut
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Editorial, Science
If you didn't grow up in the late 60's, then perhaps you weren't aware of the earliest foresight of Kurt Vonnegut. The genius of the man was that he could take the most inane concepts and turn them into science fiction that often became fact. He was the man who decided the meaning of life was a can opener and that the world would come to an end because of ice-nine, a sliver of which would turn any liquid, including bodily fluids, into a frozen disaster.
The novelist's heroes, such as Kilgore Trout, were sometimes a reflection of himself; his plots concerned the way our society often fails us. His villains were those who could find a way to ruin the planet, just the way many of us are doing in real life. Gear Live will remember you fondly, Mr. Vonnegut, and we know that Bokonon is pointing his thumbed nose up at you in tribute. Also know that while you lived, he admired you for always being busy, busy, busy and for teaching us the same.
bp Tries to Clean Up Its Act
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Corporate News, Editorial, Transportation
After seeing bp's latest commercial for its company, we can't help remembering that sometimes even the supposedly best technology can go wrong, very wrong. On March 23, 2005, one of their refineries exploded killing 15 workers and injuring more than 100. Out of more than 1,000 injury claims from this incident and others that happened previously, bp settled out of court with most of them.
To counter the remaining bad publicity, the company, which provides 3% the U.S. petroleum, has launched Helios Power commercials featuring engaging animated toddlers singing "Say Hey"and hanging out at bp stations. To make them really worry about their image, what say we stop buying their gas until their refineries are a lot safer?

RocketBoom, The Shape of News to Come
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Editorial, Home Entertainment, Internet, Misc. Tech
As television news becomes less reliable and leans more towards the fluff of Katie Couric-style reporting, it won't be long before we all will opt for sites such as RocketBoom. The New York daily vlog is the brainchild of Andrew Barron and Amanda Congdon, its original host. She was replaced in June of last year by MTV Europe VJ Joanne Colan. The site often registers as much as 250,000 downloads per day.

More Companies Recall Pet Food
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Corporate News, Editorial, Household
No clever gadget here, folks, but having recently lost our own dog to liver malfunction, it makes us question why such supposedly reliable and technologically up-to-date companies as Iams and Science Diet may be responsible for the lives of too many pets worldwide. These products are often recommended by vets, and if you can't rely on them, what can you do?
Our suggestion is, first of all, to halt the consuming of either wet or dry recalled products in question, which now includes Del Monte (manufacturers of Gravy Train and jerky treats,) Purina's Alpo, and Hill. Switch your pet's diet to something organic and made locally or make your own kibble. Finally, if you even suspect your best friend is exhibiting symptoms of liver damage, call your local veterinary facility to see if she/he should be tested.

Back Off, Yahoo
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Editorial, Internet
I know i have complained a bit about Yahoo in the past and today I noticed their latest trick. This is what I found at the bottom of the inside of an e-mail:
"Don't pick lemons.
See all the new 2007 cars at Yahoo! Autos.
It's not enough that I have to put up with garish banners, gratuitous credit reports and complimentary Cingular Phones that aren't really free, and constant reminders that I can upgrade to Email Plus for $19.99 a year or a personal address for $35.00 a year. Now they want me to select my next car through them. Hey Yahoo, please lighten up. At the rate you are spamming me, I will have to put up my SpamGuard Plus to block you or abandon my puny 1GB memory in search of a kinder e-mail.
Al Gore Wins Oscar for "Inconvenient Truth"
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Editorial, Home Entertainment, Movies, Science
Okay, so Al Gore didn't personally win. But "AIT"'s (as the crew refers to it) director Davis Guggenheim brought the man who proclaims "he used to be the next president of the U.S." up on the stage with him because he is truly the man behind the movie. Gore has always been interested in the subject of global warming and during his vice-presidential years used his term to draw attention to that and other environmental issues. This leads us to the political question: In the race against Queen Hillary and Prince Obama, can "The Goracle" become our next
President? We hope he will just continue to aid our planet.

Yahoo Runs Amok
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Editorial, Internet
What the heck is wrong with Yahoo? Seriously. A few weeks ago my handy TV guide became unusable. Do a Yahoo search and you get references to their pages or silly questions with even sillier answers. Today my Yahoo e-mail has not only metamorphasized into something I don't recognize, it refuses to post pictures that have been sent to me. There is also a delay in bringing it up. I have long enjoyed the benefits of Yahoo's e-mail, since it affords me a larger storage area and isolates most of the spam I get on it, but I really think that they have finally bitten off more than they can figuratively chew. With so much information and choices online, it may be time to find a kinder company that doesn't want to rule the entire Internet world.
The Internet Invades Politics
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Editorial, Internet, Videos
Every day the web becomes a more powerful social network. Iraqi assassinations were posted on the Internet in their entirety. Viral videos helped to cause the demise of former senator George Allen and comedian Michael Richards. It also was the source of coming out parties for both Hillary Clinton and Barak Obama. Just as TV was the turning point in the race for President during the debates between John Kennedy and Richard Nixon in 1960, we consider the possibilities that those of you interested in the politics of our U. of S. will be turning more to the likes of YouTube than the boob tube for next year's big race. After viewing last night's "The Agenda" on tvo.org with Steve Paikin, we see that we aren't the only ones.

We Are Time's Persons of the Year
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Editorial, Internet
Time Magazine's next Person of the Year Issue, due out December 25, refers to "the many wresting power from the few and helping one another for nothing and how that will not only change the world, but also change the way the world changes."
The article states that all who submit data on YouTube or MySpace or just blog are indulging in techno-advances that alter our world as we know it. We agree. We no longer have to turn on the stereo or TV, fight the post office, pick up a newspaper, shop at crowded malls, or even go to the bank. We make stupid human videos and seek out others online internationally for companionship.
Congratulations to all of us who share the spotlight with the likes of Einstein, Bono and most of the world's leaders. See that you do them proud.

C/Y (Contax/Yashica) Adapter Advice Requested
Jan 6, 2014
I want to mount one of my favorite lenses, Contax/Zeiss 100mm Makro on a 1DMKIII, or 5dMKIII. I primarily want to use this setup for macro. I've seen a lot of adapters and even some the OptixPCB Version 6. Unfortunately, a good chip can be placed on a bad adapter and the other way around.
I've searched for some guidance, but haven't really come up with any good advice.

Yeah he does! Which gym were you thinking?
fitness first near the GMEX
oh shiiiit! Is there anyway to block you on here then? lol
lol why would you want to do that, I'm not a freak, and not going to say or do anything, i merely recognised him. He is a cute guy anyway and its a great pic. I dont go to that gym anymore anyway, so I dont see him day to day.
hahaha give me his number to text him too haha great pic
I would but he's actually quite shy. He hates when I take pics of him.
I guess I could like Manchester, too... :-P
Can't blame you!
He's strong, who's he?
hies about to break the phone!


text: I've been working on this problem for a couple of hours, and I can't seem to crack it. I feel like just a tip on how to get started would get me up over the hump. 1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data Two pistons in two different cylinders are connected by a rigid rod. A pin used to fix the pistons in place is removed and the system is allowed to equilibrate adiabatically. Assuming that air behaves as an ideal gas, determine the temperature of the gas in Tank A and Tank B (Tf) at the final state assuming that the temperatures are equal. 2. Relevant equations Pv=RT 3. The attempt at a solution I attempted to find the volume of each of the chambers in the initial state by using Pv = RT at both the top and bottom chamber. I came up with v_top=.01435 m^3 and v_bottom=.010045 m^3 I'm unsure where to go from here. I know that P_1*v_1=mRT_1 and P_2*v_2=mRT_2. I'm just unsure how to relate all of this to finding the final temperature.

SOUTH AFRICA: Ford to boost diesel engine capacity at Struandale
By Dave Leggett | 20 December 2012
Ford Motor Company of Southern Africa (FMCSA) has announced that the Ford Struandale engine plant will be increasing production capacity of the Duratorq TDCi diesel engine to cater for new demand from the North American market.
The locally produced 3.2-litre Duratorq five-cylinder (i5) turbodiesel engine, which was recently introduced in the new Ford Ranger, will be used in the Transit van when it joins Ford's North American product line-up for the first time in 2013 as the 3.2 litre power stroke diesel. The Transit is Europe's best-selling commercial vehicle.
"The expansion of our Duratorq TDCi production capacity for North America is an exceptionally proud and important achievement for Ford Motor Company of Southern Africa, as it's the first time we will be exporting engines to the United States," explained Jeff Nemeth, FMCSA president and CEO.
"Coming on the back of the extremely successful launch of the new Ranger, this will increase our annual production capacity of the Duratorq TDCi engine by over 31,000 engines per year."
"The addition of the Duratorq TDCi engine production for North America is in line with our focus on leveraging existing capacity and offering global flexibility, as part of the one Ford strategy," stated Satya Banda, plant manager of the Struandale engine plant.
"The expansion programme will see new equipment being added to the current machining and assembly lines, without affecting our current production and global export programme for the Duratorq TDCi engine that powers the New Ranger."
The Duratorq TDCi will be exported to Kansas City assembly plant in Claycomo, which received a US$1.1bn investment for the Transit programme. Transit production, is scheduled to begin in late 2013.

The next request was for the department to "sponsor" a presentation on the ex-gay movement. The event featured a speaker who scoffed at the notion that homosexuality could be learned or un-learned. He also badly denigrated the "religious right."
As a proud fundamentalist Baptist and self-proclaimed member of the "religious right" I was simply appalled that the event would be advertised with posters saying "Sponsored by the Department of Sociology and Criminal Justice." Saying that "we" sponsored that attack on fundamentalism was an act of deep religious bigotry. It was almost as bad as forcing me to take an oath (read: endorse) the Koran or the Book of Mormon – two books I consider to be both fictional and blasphemous.
Please make no mistake about where I stand on this issue. I support Ellison's decision to take his oath on the Koran just as I would support the decision of a President Romney to take an oath on the Book of Mormon. I would even support an atheist's decision to take a secular oath so long as it was devised in a manner sufficient to awaken his conscience to the necessity of executing his responsibilities in a truthful manner and in accordance with the laws of this great nation.
It has been said that such a stance would have adverse consequences. Indeed, some have noted that Muslim extremists would see Ellison's oath on the Koran as a victory that would encourage them to commit acts of violence in the name of Islam. That is true. But Muslim extremists would see a prevention of Ellison's oath on the Koran as an insult that would encourage them to commit acts of violence in the name of Islam.
In that respect Muslim extremists are like American feminists whose emotional instability justifies Jihad – whether against the "infidel" or the "fetus" – under any conceivable circumstance. Those of us who oppose their fanaticism can take some consolation in the fact that the Muslim extremists will eventually martyr themselves – just as the feminists will eventually abort themselves – out of the gene pool.
Since we can expect a negative consequence no matter what we do with Ellison's request we should make a decision based on principle rather than pragmatism. In my view, the overriding principle is individual religious liberty, not collectivism hidden beneath the veil of mainstream conservatism.

Daemonia Arma by MoonstalkerWerewolfWatch
©2013-2016 MoonstalkerWerewolf
A drawing of an anonymous Daemon Arma, a personal demon species of mine. Others usually vary from this form, so yes...I didn't stick lower mock-armor on the legs, so this one looks more naked despite not being such, uhu.
Yes, I know it might remind you of a stinking Xenomorph from Aliens but trust me, that was definitely not on my mind until the realization hit me after I completed it, so you better not note it. I will hate you forever if you do.
Artwork and Daemon Arma © Me.
Textures by =Sirius-sdz.
Your really good at this demon-like art work if you find a way to animate it you could probably make your own anime.
really well drawn! the detail is amazing!
Honestly I saw this and the initial reaction was that it was like a xenomorph fused with Ichigo's hollow form in your own style ofc.
Cool! I really like the concept
great colouring as well
XENOMORPH- i mean what
Many jokes
LIKe i want one
As a pet...
Can i has one as a pet?
I didn't think Aliens when I saw this. o.o"
Is this like, a full possession or something? or is this the stand alone deamon?
Is this like, a full possession or something? or is this the stand alone deamon?
GOOD I was afraid people would and go "HNNGGGGGH ALIEN XENOMORPHfsgasfgs!!!" (I've gotten that on other Arma designs, mostly just because they're black, plated, and have lovely spiky tails). That note was more directed at a small group of people, considering people who have a tendency to make comparisons (the artistic bane of my existence) tend to be the same people.
This is a stand-alone demon, basically a full-blown Arma. Milda's a special case because she's a host, but if she's in a full, mature possession state her Arma would resemble this one very closely....and of course appears in full in this picture:
So yeah.
Ahh. ok. That's why i was wondering if this was a possession or not, It looks like it could be considering it looks like its forming over someones clothes much like milda's
xD Yeah. Well, considering the rarity of Arma in the world in terms of my storyline, Milda's the only one who gets possessed....X'D
Thank you for making this. Totally made my day!

The more I think about it, the more I'm inclined to recommend getting rid of our TVs, or at least using them less. Now that said, I'll admit I'd be the biggest hypocrite in the world if I told other people to stop watching TV completely, because I definitely use mine on a daily basis. However I do feel that TV watching […] Read more »

Epinephrine CFC Metered-dose Inhalers - Questions and Answers
Welcome to the Food and Drug Administration's questions and answers on epinephrine CFC metered-dose inhalers.
I am Yolanda Fultz-Morris from F-D-A's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research.
Epinephrine CFC metered-dose inhalers used to treat asthma, known as Primatene Mist or Epinephrine Mist, cannot be made or sold in the United States after December 31, 2011.
FDA is providing the following questions and answers to help you to better understand Epinephrine CFC metered-dose inhalers. Pat Clarke, from F-D-A's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research will be providing the responses.
1. Why are over-the-counter epinephrine CFC inhalers being phased out?
Manufacturers use chlorofluorocarbons, or CFCs, as propellants, or sprays, in these inhalers to move the medicine out of the inhaler so patients can breathe the medicine into their lungs. CFCs are harmful to the environment because they decrease the protective ozone layer above the Earth.
The United States signed an international agreement along with many other countries. The agreement is called the "Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer." These countries promised to make it illegal to make or sell substances that decrease the ozone layer, including CFCs, after certain dates.
2. When will epinephrine CFC inhalers be gone?
Epinephrine CFC inhalers cannot be made or sold after December 31, 2011, because CFCs harm the environment. This date gives patients time to talk to a doctor and switch to another medicine to treat their asthma.
3. What should I do if I use an epinephrine CFC inhaler?
If you use an epinephrine CFC inhaler for asthma, you should talk to a doctor about switching to a different medicine to treat your asthma. There is no other FDA-approved epinephrine inhaler made without CFCs or sold without a prescription.
4. What other inhalers can I use for my asthma?
There are inhalers that have another medicine that can treat asthma, such as albuterol HFA inhalers. Hydrofluoroalkanes,also called, HFAs, are different propellants, or sprays, than CFCs, and HFAs don't harm the environment. You will need a doctor's prescription to buy these albuterol HFA inhalers.
5. How are albuterol HFA inhalers and epinephrine CFC inhalers alike?
- Albuterol HFA inhalers are metered-dose inhalers that you use in the same way as you use the epinephrine CFC inhalers.
- Albuterol HFA inhalers are safe and effective for these FDA approved uses: treatment or prevention of bronchospasm in patients with reversible obstructive airway disease, including asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, also called COPD.
6. How are albuterol HFA inhalers and epinephrine CFC inhalers different?
- You can only buy albuterol HFA inhalers with a prescription from your doctor. You can buy epinephrine CFC inhalers without a prescription until December 31, 2011. After that date, epinephrine CFC inhalers cannot be made or sold in the United States.
- Albuterol HFA and epinephrine CFC inhalers may taste and feel different.
- You have to clean and prime the albuterol HFA inhalers so they work in the right way and give the right dose of medicine.
7. The albuterol HFA inhalers cost more than the epinephrine CFC inhalers. What can I do if it's hard for me to pay for an HFA inhaler?
- Talk to a healthcare professional about programs that help patients get medicines they need.
- Some drug companies have patient-assistance programs that make medicines available to patients at no cost, or at a lower cost.
- Some patients may be able to get help paying for medicines from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.
8. Is it safe to buy albuterol HFA inhalers over the Internet?
Buying your medicine online can be easy; just make sure you do it safely. The Internet makes it possible to compare prices and buy products without leaving home. But when it comes to buying medicine online, it is important to be careful. Some websites sell medicine that may not be safe to use and could put your health at risk.

I had an electrical short in the wiring harness from the relay box to the brake switch; The air bag light was affected. A couple of the wires that burned, made contact with the wire going into the dashboard display and the light for airbag was turned on by the burning wires toching it. I replaced the burnt wires and now the the light stays on. Do I need to go back to the dealer to reset the computer because the falt is in the memory? The cause of the problem was the rear brake light wire in the harness shorting. I'm the third owner and I guess someone someone in the past years, put a cheap fuse that melted it's plastic casing like Shrink Wrap, making the two prongs come together and keeping a constant closed circuit. If you know DC current, it gets hot, fire very fast.

I just like to know if a code from air bag can be eraze by disconnecting the module,I trigger the light while replced the w/regulator,by mistake I turn the switch on with the bag unpluged
If the airbag warning light illuminates, it must be attended to quickly. Seat belt buckles, wiring updates/repairs, and/or airbag module faults may be the cause.
Accumulated water in electronic control units can lead to various alarm and remote entry problems.

Seeking 'A New Path'
Oppenheimer, Andres, Hemisphere
Will the defeat of President Clinton's "fast track" authority to sign new free trade agreements generate a backlash in Latin America? Will the increasingly powerful center-left coalitions in Mexico and Argentina shift away from a US-proposed hemispheric free trade bloc?
The answer is yes, according to a document prepared by potential presidential candidates from some of Latin America's leading opposition parties. The document in question--a 24-page manifesto entitled, "After Neoliberalism: A New Path"--was released in Buenos Aires in November 1997. The alternative vision of development presented in its pages may have a significant impact on US exports--and jobs--in coming years.
The explicit critique of neoliberalism was the result of four meetings in Mexico, Chile and Costa Rica by a group of centrist and leftist politicians, several of whom have a good shot at winning their countries' next presidential elections. Members of the group, informally known as "the Buenos Aires Consensus," included Mexican politician Vicente Fox, Cuauhtemoc Cardenas, Manuel Camacho and Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador; former Brazilian president Itamar Franco and leading opposition candidate Luiz Ignacio "Lula" da Silva; Argentine opposition leaders Graciela Fernandez Meijide, Carlos "Chacho" Alvarez and Rodolfo Terragno; and Ricardo Lagos, Chile's public works minister. Nevertheless, the document makes it clear that not all participants agreed on all points. The final product was not signed, to avoid time-consuming debates over details, and at least one of the original members of the group--Brazil's da Silva--has already asked that his name be removed.
Despite these drawbacks, the group's attack on neoliberalism represents an opposition consensus on major issues, including the following points:
* "To set in motion mechanisms for regulating speculative foreign investment." The group suggests following the example of Chile and Malaysia by limiting massive overnight withdrawals from local stock markets, in an effort to prevent the sudden waves of capital flight that periodically cripple Latin American economies.
* "More integration among ourselves, and less with others." The group hopes to strengthen and expand Mercosur, the South American free trade agreement that includes Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay. The logic behind this argument is that Latin America should become a strong free trade bloc in its own right before engaging in trade negotiations with the United States.
* "The taxation rate should rise progressively to international levels." Wealthy Latin Americans pay significantly less taxes than their counterparts in the United States or Europe. The document proposes new value-added taxes, as well as more stringent taxation of charitable contributions and inheritances.
* "Privatization should be implemented on a case by case basis, not as a matter of ideological dogma." The document argues that the purpose of privatization is to fragment ownership and encourage competition, not simply to transform key industries from state monopolies into private monopolies.
* "We must open up the communications media, which in most Latin American countries have passed from state control into the hands of private monopolies." The concentration of radio and television licenses should be limited, as it is in the United States, to prevent news monopolies in specific markets.
Jorge Castaneda, the Mexican political scientist and New York University professor who organized the meetings along with Brazilian-born Harvard Law School professor Roberto Mangabeira Unger, insists that the Buenos Aires Consensus will not undo the economic reforms undertaken by most Latin American countries.
"What has been done is a given," Castaneda says. …

Klay Thompson believes, even if he knows many don't.
He knows how good Stephen Curry is, so he couldn't have been terribly surprised when he was told during NBA All-Star player interviews that "everyone" thinks his Golden State Warriors teammate is going to win the 3-point contest Saturday night.
"Everybody thinks that? Oh, wow," Thompson said. "There's got to be a few who think Klay has a chance. I mean, I don't mean to refer to myself in the third person, but there's a few out there, I think. I'm one of them. Hopefully my brothers, and probably the rest of the world thinks Steph. That's fine. I'll play the underdog for a night."

Been bugging me for a while
I'm not a bike expert but I really haven't seen much Ducati in this bike since I first got one, but then I got rid of it to make way for DLC bikes so haven't been able to do any serious critique of the design cues. Having just made efforts to re-get one in both PS3 and PS4, I still cannot see the Monster (apart from the obvious ladder frame which is present to a lesser degree on other bikes too).
I've been looking at Aprilias since the manufacturer in game relates directly to Aprilia and Moto Guzzi's parent company. Can see a lot of Shiver and Tuono in this Nemesis. smurfy (coms) 04:47, January 19, 2015 (UTC)

New Music Releases for Tuesday 1/15/2013
This week's relatively unknown list meant we uncovered some gems. She & the Sun (above) shed an admirable start to the second week of the year with their self-titled album and several other artists go outside their original groups to devise some delicious medleys.
The duo of She & the Sun was formed out of step-siblings Andy Stack and Melissa Ahem, creating a chill, melodic walk of vocals, backlaid guitars and simple electronic rhythms.
From the now defunct group Girls, Christopher Owens adds to his career with Lysandre. With an acoustic guitar and a soft voice, he adds another gentle facet to this week's releases.
The energetic edge of this week goes to Erin McKeown and Manifestra. This Winter she already has a ton of shows lined up all the across the US and in the UK. Find her tour dates here.
Finally, don't miss Criminal Hygiene's somewhat self-titled album CRMNL HYGNE. This garage rock band from Los Angeles has it all – deep bass, clamoring drums and classic vocals. Check out their link below for their Bandcamp page and enjoy the week in music!

Toronto's Jeff Leard is really good at doing voices — male and female. And sound effects, like the beepbeepboopboop racket those gadgets make in science-fiction films. And so, for 45 minutes (not 60, as in the program) he portrays the entire cast and equipment of Sperm Wars, from the sperm pilots of the X and Y chromosome flyers of the Left Testicle squadron, to all the eggs of the ovaries. You get the idea.
It all gets pretty silly, as Leard rolls and runs around onstage, simulating everything from oral sex to fighter spacecraft in peril, occasionally apologizing to the audience for messing up and teasing his lighting guy for missing cues. There are some neat uses of war movie clichés ("Win this for Johnson!"), but whether you find this clever or tiresome will depend on your taste for an elongated running gag of anatomical sex terms, and space movies. Still, you gotta admire Leard for keeping it up.
