Hungary is a nation of ten million people in central Europe of ten million people, northwest of Romania and southeast of Austria.
Its major environmental issues include the upgrading of Hungary's standards in waste management, energy efficiency, and air, soil, and water pollution to meet European Union requirements which will require large investments
Landlocked, Hungary is strategic located astride main land routes between Western Europe and Balkan Peninsula as well as between Ukraine and Mediterranean basin.
The north-south flowing Duna (Danube) and Tisza Rivers divide the country into three large regions
Hungary became a Christian kingdom in A.D. 1000 and for many centuries served as a bulwark against Ottoman Turkish expansion in Europe.
The kingdom eventually became part of the polyglot Austro-Hungarian Empire, which collapsed during World War I.
The country fell under Communist rule following World War II. In 1956, a revolt and an announced withdrawal from the Warsaw Pact were met with a massive military intervention by Moscow.
Under the leadership of Janos Kadar in 1968, Hungary began liberalizing its economy, introducing so-called "Goulash Communism."
Hungary held its first multiparty elections in 1990 and initiated a free market economy.
It joined NATO in 1999 and the European Union five years later. In 2011, Hungary assumed the six-month rotating presidency of the EU for the first time. as a member state that forms part of the EU's external border, Hungary has implemented the strict Schengen border rules.

Ecology and Biodiversity
Ecologically, Hungary covered by Pannonian mixed forests, an ecoregion which consists of the depression surrounded by the Carpathian Mountains, Alps, and Dinaric Mountains.
Avifauna diversity is high; there are fifty Important Bird Areas in this ecoregion.
Lake Neusiedel with Seewinkel National Park, and other important wetlands are renowned for their bird life. Resident mammals are of the widespread throughout Europe including the European rabbit, wolf, and the endangered European mink. There are a number of endangered reptiles including Orsini's viper and Balkan wall lizard.
Recreation and tourism, unsustainable exploitation, development and fragmentation, agricultural abandonment, and disturbance of wildlife, are other important threats. There are a number of natural parks in this ecoregion, but much of the natural habitat has been lost to agriculture.

Hungary has long been an integral part of Europe. It converted to Western Christianity before AD 1000. Although Hungary was a monarchy for nearly 1,000 years, its constitutional system preceded by several centuries the establishment of Western-style governments in other European countries.
Following the defeat of the Austro-Hungarian Dual Monarchy (1867-1918) at the end of World War I, Hungary lost two-thirds of its territory and one-third of its population. It experienced a brief but bloody communist dictatorship and counterrevolution in 1919, followed by a 25-year regency under Admiral Miklos Horthy. Although Hungary fought in most of World War II as a German ally, it fell under German military occupation on March 19, 1944 following an unsuccessful attempt to switch sides. Under Nazi occupation, the Hungarian Government executed or deported and seized the property of hundreds of thousands of its minority citizens, mostly members of the Jewish community. On January 20, 1945, a provisional government concluded an armistice with the Soviet Union and established the Allied Control Commission, under which Soviet, American, and British representatives held complete sovereignty over the country. The Commission's chairman was a member of Stalin's inner circle and exercised absolute control.
Communist Takeover
The provisional government, dominated by the Hungarian Communist Party (MKP), was replaced in November 1945 after elections which gave majority control of a coalition government to the Independent Smallholders' Party. The government instituted a radical land reform and gradually nationalized mines, electric plants, heavy industries, and some large banks. The communists ultimately undermined the coalition regime by discrediting leaders of rival parties and through terror, blackmail, and show trials. In elections tainted by fraud in 1947, the leftist bloc gained control of the government.
By February 1949, all opposition parties had been forced to merge with the MKP to form the Hungarian Workers' Party. In 1949, the communists held a single-list election and adopted a Soviet-style constitution, which created the Hungarian People's Republic. Between 1948 and 1953, the Hungarian economy was reorganized according to the Soviet model. In 1949, the country joined the Council for Mutual Economic Assistance (CMEA, or Comecon.) All private industrial firms with more than 10 employees were nationalized. Freedom of the press, religion, and assembly were strictly curtailed. The head of the Roman Catholic Church, Cardinal Jozsef Mindszenty, was sentenced to life imprisonment.
Forced industrialization and land collectivization soon led to serious economic difficulties, which reached crisis proportions by mid-1953. Imre Nagy replaced Rakosi as prime minister in 1953 and repudiated much of Rakosi's economic program of forced collectivization and heavy industry. He also ended political purges and freed thousands of political prisoners. However, the economic situation continued to deteriorate, and Rakosi succeeded in disrupting the reforms and in forcing Nagy from power in 1955 for "right-wing revisionism." Hungary joined the Soviet-led Warsaw Pact Treaty Organization the same year.
1956 Revolution
Pressure for change reached a climax on October 23, 1956, when security forces fired on Budapest students marching in support of Poland's confrontation with the Soviet Union. The ensuing battle quickly grew into a massive popular uprising. Fighting did not abate until the Central Committee named Imre Nagy as prime minister on October 25. Nagy dissolved the state security police, abolished the one-party system, promised free elections, and negotiated with the U.S.S.R. to withdraw its troops.
Faced with reports of new Soviet troops pouring into Hungary, despite Soviet Ambassador Andropov's assurances to the contrary, on November 1 Nagy announced Hungary's neutrality and withdrawal from the Warsaw Pact. In response, the Soviet Union launched a massive military attack on Hungary on November 3. Some 200,000 Hungarians fled to the West. Nagy and his colleagues took refuge in the Yugoslav Embassy. Party First Secretary Janos Kadar defected from the Nagy cabinet, fleeing to the Soviet Union. On November 4 he announced the formation of a new government. He returned to Budapest and, with Soviet support, carried out severe reprisals; thousands of people were executed or imprisoned. Despite a guarantee of safe conduct, Nagy was arrested and deported to Romania. In June 1958, Nagy was returned to Hungary, and, following a secret trial, was executed by the communist government.
Reform Under Kadar
In the early 1960s, Kadar announced a new policy under the motto of "He Who is Not Against Us is With Us," and introduced a relatively liberal cultural and economic course aimed at overcoming the post-1956 hostility toward him and his regime. In 1966, the Central Committee approved the "New Economic Mechanism," through which it sought to overcome the inefficiencies of central planning, increase productivity, make Hungary more competitive in world markets, and create prosperity to ensure political stability. By the early 1980s, it had achieved some lasting economic reforms and limited political liberalization and pursued a foreign policy which encouraged more trade with the West. Nevertheless, the New Economic Mechanism led to mounting foreign debt incurred to shore up unprofitable industries.
Transition to Democracy
Hungary's transition to a Western-style parliamentary democracy was the first and the smoothest among the former Soviet bloc. By 1987, activists within the party and bureaucracy and Budapest-based intellectuals were increasingly pressing for change. Young liberals formed the Federation of Young Democrats (Fidesz); a core from the so-called Democratic Opposition formed the Association of Free Democrats (SZDSZ), and the neo-populist national opposition established the Hungarian Democratic Forum (MDF). Civic activism intensified to a level not seen since the 1956 revolution.
In 1988, Kadar was replaced as General Secretary of the MSZMP (the Communist Party), and that same year, the Parliament adopted a "democracy package," which included trade union pluralism; freedom of association, assembly, and the press; a new electoral law; and a radical revision of the constitution, among others. The Soviet Union reduced its involvement by signing an agreement in April 1989 to withdraw Soviet forces by June 1991.
National unity culminated in June 1989 as the country reburied Imre Nagy, his associates, and, symbolically, all other victims of the 1956 revolution. A national roundtable, comprising representatives of the new parties and some recreated old parties--such as the Smallholders and Social Democrats--the Communist Party, and different social groups, met in the late summer of 1989 to discuss major changes to the Hungarian constitution in preparation for free elections and the transition to a fully free and democratic political system.
Free Elections and a Democratic Hungary
The first free parliamentary election, held in March-April 1990, was a plebiscite of sorts on the communist past with the Democratic Forum (MDF) winning 43% of the vote and the Free Democrats (SZDSZ) capturing 24%. Under Prime Minister Jozsef Antall, the MDF formed a center-right coalition government with the Independent Smallholders' Party (FKGP) and the Christian Democratic People's Party (KDNP) to command a 60% majority in the Parliament. Parliamentary opposition parties included SZDSZ, the Socialists (MSZP--successors to the Communist Party), and the Alliance of Young Democrats (Fidesz). Peter Boross succeeded as Prime Minister after Antall died and the Antall/Boross coalition governments achieved a reasonably well-functioning parliamentary democracy and laid the foundation for a free market economy.
In May 1994, the Socialists came back to win a plurality of votes and 54% of the seats after an election campaign focused largely on economic issues and the substantial decline in living standards since 1990. A heavy turnout of voters swept away the right-of-center coalition but soundly rejected extremists on both right and left. The MSZP continued economic reforms and privatization, adopting a painful, but necessary, policy of fiscal austerity (the "Bokros plan") in 1995. However, dissatisfaction with the pace of economic recovery, rising crime, and cases of government corruption convinced voters to propel center-right parties into power following national elections in May 1998. Fidesz captured a plurality of parliamentary seats and forged a coalition with the Smallholders and the Democratic Forum. The new government, headed by 35-year-old Prime Minister Viktor Orban, promised to stimulate faster growth, curb inflation, and lower taxes. Although the Orban administration also pledged continuity in foreign policy, and continued to pursue Euro-Atlantic integration as its first priority, it was a more vocal advocate of minority rights for ethnic Hungarians abroad than the previous government. During Orban's tenure, Hungary acceded to NATO on March 12, 1999.
In April 2002, the country voted to return the MSZP-Free Democrat coalition to power with Peter Medgyessy as Prime Minister. The Medgyessy government placed special emphasis on solidifying Hungary's Euro-Atlantic course, which culminated in Hungary's accession to the European Union on May 1, 2004. Prime Minister Medgyessy resigned in August 2004 after losing coalition support following an attempted cabinet reshuffle. Ferenc Gyurcsany succeeded Medgyessy as Prime Minister in September 29, 2004.
In the April 2006 election, Prime Minister Ferenc Gyurcsany and his Socialist-liberal coalition were re-elected, the first time since communism that a sitting government renewed its mandate. The SZDSZ pulled out of the coalition in April 2008, leaving the MSZP to govern alone.
The global economic crisis spilled over into Hungary in autumn 2008, and severely impacted the country. Prime Minister Gyurcsany resigned in March 2009 and was succeeded by a technocratic crisis management government led by Gordon Bajnai, the former Minister of Economy and National Development.
Parliamentary elections in April 2010 brought a Fidesz-KDNP coalition back to power with a two-thirds majority (262 seats). Viktor Orban became Prime Minister. Joining the MSZP in opposition were the newly elected far-right Jobbik party and the Green party, Politics Can Be Different (LMP). Today, Fidesz-KDNP has 263 seats. In the opposition, MSZP has 48 seats, Jobbik 46, and LMP 15; 10 Members of Parliament (MPs) have left MSZP to create a new party, the Democratic Coalition. There are four independent MPs. The Fidesz-dominated Parliament quickly launched an ambitious legislative agenda that has promised to reduce the overall number of seats in Parliament to 199 effective for the next election in 2014, cut by half the number of local representatives, and extended citizenship and voting rights to ethnic Hungarians living beyond the country's present borders. In April 2011, Parliament adopted the country's new constitution, which entered into effect January 1, 2012. Among other changes, the document makes reference to the role of Christianity in "preserving the nation" and sets the term of local government members at 5 years. Additionally, it mandated a process requiring the passage of several dozen so-called cardinal laws on issues such as religion, the media, the restructuring of the judiciary, elections, and the central bank. The majority of these laws were passed in 2011, and their future modification would require a two-thirds majority in Parliament.

The history of Hajdúböszörmény, Hungary, echoes across its name and over its outline on the land. Now a city of 32,000, Hajdúböszörmény was settled in prehistory. The term "böszörmény" refers to a Turkish-Bulgarian ethnic group who may have been its first settlers. "Hajdú" refers to the cattle-driving population of the plain who became soldiers in the 16th century. To reward the Hajdú (or Haiduk) soldiers for defeating the Hapsburg Emperor, the Prince of Transylvania allowed the soldiers to settle in Böszörmény with the freedom of self-government.
This history is reflected in the shape of modern Hajdúböszörmény, as shown in this image taken by the Landsat 7 satellite on August 19, 2002. The city is round, a shape easily defended on the flat North Pannonian Plain in northeastern Hungary. The livestock-based economy may also play a role in the shape of the city. The center is densely built, a concentrated ellipse of tan and white. Surrounding the center is a slightly less dense circle, marked by diagonal roads, which held stockyards and gardens. Even today, tiny spots of green indicate that this area contains more open garden space than the city center.
Agricultural fields radiate away from the well-defined outer boundaries of the town. Small fields near the town were traditionally plowed fields for crops or hay. Larger fields lie beyond, and these have historically been pastureland. Source: NASA.

Natural Resources: bauxite, coal, natural gas, fertile soils, arable land
Land Use:
Hungary has made the transition from a centrally planned to a market economy, with a per capita income nearly two-thirds that of the EU-25 average.
The private sector accounts for more than 80% of GDP. Foreign ownership of and investment in Hungarian firms are widespread, with cumulative foreign direct investment worth more than $70 billion.
The government's austerity measures, imposed since late 2006, reduced the budget deficit from over 9% of GDP in 2006 to 4.2% in 2010 and 2.9% in 2011.
Hungary's impending inability to service its short-term debt - brought on by the global financial crisis in late 2008 - led Budapest to obtain an IMF/EU/World Bank-arranged financial assistance package worth over $25 billion.
The global economic downturn, declining exports, and low domestic consumption and fixed asset accumulation, dampened by government austerity measures, resulted in an economic contraction of 6.3% in 2009.
In 2010 the new government implemented a number of changes including cutting business and personal income taxes, but imposed "crisis taxes" on financial institutions, energy and telecom companies, and retailers. The economy began to recover in 2010 with a big boost from exports, especially to Germany, and achieved growth of approximately 1.8% in 2011. Unemployment remained high, at more than 11% in 2011. Ongoing economic weakness in Western Europe is likely to further constrain growth in 2012.

BOISE On the same day Idaho announced a new three-year agreement to continue playing at CenturyLink Arena in Boise, the Stampede defended their home floor with a 101-95 victory over the Texas Legends.
All five Idaho starters scored in double-figures, but it was Marcus Banks who contributed with a team-high 24 points off the bench.
Banks put the game on ice at the free-throw line in the fourth quarter, sinking all six of his attempts. On the night, Banks finished 13-of-15 from the charity stripe, with the Stampede shooting 21-of-26 as a team.
The Idaho (17-25) victory snaps Texas' (21-19) eight-game winning streak.
The Stampede and Legends play again on Thursday at CenturyLink Arena. Tipoff is at 7 p.m

The 25 types of photographer… which one are you?
21. The Twitcher
If you find a photographer in the woods, looking up into the trees with a lens the length of their arm, then you'll know you've found the Twitcher. The Twitcher can spend hours sitting in a small hide in the woods, waiting to capture just one photograph of the one species of bird they are waiting for.
Where can you find them? In the woods.
How can you identify them? This photographer prefers to dress in green and brown. They will often be wearing a hat, will be carrying a very long lens, and will be looking up.
22. The Botanist
The Botanist can often be found in the garden, where they find plentiful photo subjects, for the Botanist is passionate about photographing plants. They will often use macro lenses and extension tubes to capture the most detail they can from a leaf or petal. Many Botanists also like to spend time editing their photographs to bring out certain colours, making their images more striking.
Where can you find them? In the garden or the park.
How can you identify them? They will be pointing their camera at every flower bed with extreme interest.
23. The Intrepid Traveller
This type of photographer likes nothing better than to get off the beaten track to uncover some more unique photo opportunities. They love to photograph people as well as landscapes.
Where can you find them? They are sometimes difficult to find as they will take the path less taken.
How can you identify them? They might be in need of a hair cut or shave, and will walk around with their camera in wide-eyed wonder at the world around them.
24. The Light Painter
The Light Painter is addicted to light painting photography. Their idea of fun is going out at night to a suitable location where they can take long exposure shots enabling them to literally draw or paint with light.
Where can you find them? Any open space, or abandoned building at night.
How can you identify them? They will be carrying around an odd assortment of fluorescent objects as well as their tripod and will have a friend in tow whom they direct to twirl the fluorescent props around. At first glance, this might look like an odd scene, but you will soon know that you have stumbled upon the Light Painter.
25. The One-A-Day
You've probably heard of the 362 project, where a photography enthusiast aims to take a photograph every single day of the year. The One-A-Day likes to shoot a variety of different subjects, from self portraits, to food, to landscapes and every day life in order to keep taking a picture every day that's fresh and interesting.
Where can you find them? Anywhere.
How can you identify them? They rarely leave home without their camera, and often choose to photograph seemingly boring subjects.

Chromium Picolinate: This popular nutritional supplement is a combination of the element chromium and picolinic acid. Chromium is a naturally-occurring mineral, trace amounts of which are found in everyday foods like meat, poultry, fish, and whole-grain breads. When foods are processed, they are stripped of natural chromium, making American diets generally very low in chromium; studies estimate an average daily chromium consumption of 33 mcg. Chromium Picolinate works by stimulating the activity of insulin, thus significantly aiding the body?s glucose and fat metabolism, managing the breakdown of glucose and fat.
Vitamin B12: This nutrient plays a significant role in enhancing the metabolic rate of the body. It acts in decomposing the fat and protein to produce energy. It is an important nutrient for energy, alertness and brain function. Vitamin B12 is believed to aid weight loss by increasing metabolic rate, which speeds up the biological processes in the body. A faster metabolism can lead to increased fat burning rate. It is also thought to combat depressed mood and increase energy levels, encouraging the dieter to be more active.

ANNA MARIA – In 1949, Carlos and Irene Wells built the Island's first motel at the end of North Bay Boulevard with six-units and an unobstructed view of the Gulf.
A year later, when Paul Carlisle retired from the DuPont Company, he and his wife, Norene, wanted to find a place to retire where their families could come to visit. They found Anna Maria and fell in love, purchasing the motel for $27,500.
"After they bought the motel, they added two more units," daughter Margaret Chapman recalled. "And they bought the house next door and added a living room, carport and office.
"DuPont gave dad a television and they would invite guests and neighbors to come watch television with them because very few people had televisions then."
Chapman said rooms rented for $5 a night and included a newspaper and a grapefruit on the doorstep every morning.
Paul Carlisle was very civic minded and in 1952, he became president of the Island Chamber of commerce and served on several Island committees for roads, bridges and the public beach. In 1954, he was elected mayor of Anna Maria.
According to a 1956 newspaper article, "He gave all his time to the office. Hours meant nothing. He was profligate with his mental and physical energy.
"He was the soul of honesty and integrity; entirely devoted to the people he served and had a fine conception of his responsibilities and duties."
Chapman said in 1956, she and her husband had moved to Puerto Rico.
"I was expecting a baby," Chapman said. "Mom came to help and dad came with her. He got sick, went to the hospital and died at the age of 69.
"Mom was a wreck for three years, but went right on running the motel until 1981 when she was 91. In 1980 I bought this cottage across the street from the motel and moved here permanently. When mom died, I took over the motel."
Chapman remodeled and modernized the motel and continued to run it until 1989, when she sold it to a couple that replaced the shuffleboard courts with a swimming pool. It has changed hands a couple of times since then and is currently owned by Dan and Christine Horvat.
"We're trying to accentuate the fact that it's a historical landmark," Manager Troy Seim said. "I made a collage of photographs to let people know about its history."
However Chapman stressed, "It will always be in my heart. It will always be my motel."

My CAAD9 is perfectly silent - except for a very annoying rattle coming from a "shim" on the wire side of the quick release on the rear brake caliper.
See the picture.
Does anyone know how to rectify this rattle?
The "shim" or metal ring seems to be loose, when compared to my DA and Ultegra SL brakes. It makes a rather annoying tingling, ringing noise going over even the slightest road imperfections.
Thanks for any help :-)

No. 1 Westside cruises past PikeView
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Last year, Westside finally broke a string of five straight Class AA championships for Summers County by capturing its first state title in school history.
Now the Renegades are working toward establishing a dynasty of their own.
No. 1 Westside (24-1) overcame some foul trouble for star player Hope Lester and cruised past No. 8 PikeView 68-41 in a quarterfinal game Thursday at the Charleston Civic Center, beginning the Renegades' title defense.
The win was Westside's third over PikeView on the season with a combined margin of victory of 97 points.
"We had to fight some jitters and some nervousness," Westside coach Jamie Lusk said. "PikeView came ready to play. In that first half they were really getting after us on defense and it was making it tough for us to get good shots. We are happy with the outcome here and I thought we stepped up in the second half, made some good plays and got back to doing what we do well."
The Renegades were coasting, up 21-6 and on an 11-0 run in the second quarter when Lester was called for her second foul at the 7:25 mark, forcing her to sit the rest of the first half.
Another Davis 3-pointer extended the lead to 24-6, but Westside then closed on a 10-2 run to cut the deficit to 10 at the break.
Unfortunately for PikeView (14-11), Lester returned in full force after halftime, scoring 14 points in the third quarter during a 21-8 run that put the game out of reach for the Renegades.
She finished with 26 points, nine rebounds, and three blocks in 20 minutes.
"I just took my time on my shots," Lester said. "I got good position posting up, I wanted the ball, and I knew if I got it I had to go up strong. They were physical but I knew what I had to do.
"Hope does a good job posting up," Lusk said. "She's strong - she gets in there and she has some of the best hands as far as catching the ball as any big girl I've ever seen. She knows what her role is and knows where she needs to get to to score."
PikeView coach Karen Miller said getting Lester into foul trouble was part of the game plan from the start.
"Even in the second half we were telling the girls to take it into her," Miller said. "But Westside's got some excellent shooters, they're an excellent team, and really, all their girls are shooters."
PikeView came into the tournament hot, winning its last six contests after starting 8-10. But once again it just didn't have enough answers to pose any serious threat to the Renegades.
The Panthers needed a near perfect game but came up on the short end of a 51-32 rebounding discrepancy, missed all 10 3-point attempts and went just 11 for 23 from the foul line.
Faith Davis and Megan Endicott scored 14 points apiece for the Renegades and helped keep the team afloat while Lester was out.
Davis hit a pair of 3-pointers early and was matched up with PikeView guard Hope Nester as part of Westside's box-and-one defense.
Nester scored 12 points while Lyndsay Hatfield led the Panthers with 19 points and eight rebounds.
The Renegades will play in the semifinals at 7:15 tonight against No. 5 Fairmont Senior.

You are what you Google!
But Googling people is also becoming a way for bosses and headhunters to do continuous and stealthy background checks on employees, no disclosure required.
The above is taken from this article.
I am not sure what to think here. I have told many people…be careful what you say about yourself on the Internet, because once Google's indexes you, you are indexed for life!
But one cannot blame Google for indexing your name. A website is a public place. Google is just a search engine (like an encyclopedia) and just provides a means for people to find information quickly and easily. Wait did I just say that!!!? (they are not just a search engine, but you know what I mean!)
So as the article said, please be careful….don't be typing a blog entry while you are drunk and describing all what the strippers did to you back when you were in University because you could lose your job for it one day!
I have seen one or two movies mention that they Google's their friends names etc etc…If i was interviewing someone, I think i just MIGHT consider Googling that person, however whatever I read on that person after that would NOT have much weight on my final decision to hire that person….especially if it is negative stuff.
Google is slowly but surely taking over….I have said it before and I will say it again!! Do not be left behind. Let's just jump on the Google bandwagon and enjoy the ride. Time for me to go join the Google Army…

Breast Cancer Risk Assessment Tool
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) has developed a risk assessment tool designed to estimate your risk of developing invasive breast cancer.
This screening tool, as well as the Breast Cancer Genetics Referral Screening Tool, can provide you and your genetic counselor with important information.
Click a question number for a brief explanation, or read all explanations.
Reminder: The Breast Cancer Risk Assessment Tool was designed for use by health professionals. If you are not a health professional, you are encouraged to print these results and discuss them with your health care provider.
- These risk calculations have been validated for women in the U.S. who are screened regularly for breast cancer.
- Risk estimates do not allow one to say precisely which woman will develop breast cancer. In fact, some women who develop breast cancer may have lower estimated risks than some women who do not develop breast cancer.
- The BCRAT was not designed to estimate risk for:
- Women with a prior diagnosis of breast cancer, lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS), or ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS).
- Women who have received previous radiation therapy to the chest for treatment of Hodgkin lymphoma
- Women with gene mutations in BRCA1 or BRCA2, or those who are known to have certain genetic syndromes that increase risk for breast cancer
For women with any of the above medical history other methods to estimate breast cancer risk are better. See 'About the Tool' section for a list of references.
- Recent immigrants from parts of rural Asia, such as rural China, probably have lower risks than projected by the tool.
These results are based upon the following answer:
|Do you have a medical history of any breast cancer or of ductal carcinoma in site (DCIS) or lobular carcinoma in site (LCIS) have you received previous radiation therapy to the chest for treatment of Hodgkin lymphoma?
|Do you have a mutation in either the BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene, or a diagnosis of a genetic syndrome that may be associated with an elevated risk of breast cancer?
|What is your age?
|What was your age at the time of your first menstrual period?
|What was your age at the time of your first live birth of a child?
|How many of your first-degree relatives - mother, sisters, daughters - have had breast cancer?
|Have you ever had a breast biopsy?
|7a. How many breast biopsies (positive or negative) have you had?
|7b. Have you had at least one breast biopsy with atypcial hyperplasia?
|What is your race/ethnicity?

PartSelect Number PS964350
When activated, the auger rotates and pushes ice out of the bin through the chute to the user.
This part works with the following brands: GE, Hotpoint & Kenmore.
This part fixes the following symptoms:
I used a digital camera and photographed the assembled unit and the metal blades before I started the repair. Then, I removed the top screw on the clear shield. Flip over ice tray and removed two Phillips screws on bottom. Exterior plastic white cover comes off next. The cover sides have hard push-in white plastic tabs. Push them in; pry up top cover with small flathead screwdriver. Slide white top cover up and you will now see the metal blades and assembly. Auger is held in place with a metal c-clip and washer on the end. Use flat head screwdriver to pry off c-clip. Then you will see a nylon round slotted nut. The threads are reverse, use pliers and loosen nut. It is not that tight but pliers are needed. Then it all is loose and ready for removal. I slid all the blades off at one time and kept them stacked together. Slide out auger and clear flat shield cover. Install new auger, clear shield, and metal blade stack. When you put it all back together take a look at the long metal J-hook on the bottom make sure it is in the slot before you make everything tight. Failing to do this will prevent cubed ice from dispensing. It is not that hard to do the repair it just takes some patience and paying attention to details.
Help other customers find the most helpful instructions.
Were these instructions helpful?
Remove Ice maker bin from the refrigerator and empty. Unscrew the three Phillips head screws that secure the front plate to the bin and gently lift and pull the tab that secures the interior portion of the plate until it clears the bin. Once you remove the front plate, it will expose two side tabs on the front of the bin which must be depressed so that the plastic insert that hold the auger in place can be removed. Isolate the auger with the from the unit by rotating the parts off the shaft. The ice crushing blades are attached to the auger and can easily be removed by twisting the plastic nut off with pliers. The cutting blades will now slip off the end (make sure you study the orientation of the blades as each piece will come off separately and make the job unpleasant when you go to put it back together). Now that the auger is out, just reverse the process and you have a "new" ice dispenser. Works like a charm. The diagram furnished by PartSelect was very helpful and accurate if you get a bit lost, especially when putting the crushing blades back together.
The ice dispenser would not dispense cubes. It only dispensed crushed ice. Also the plastic auger was partially broken and it took forever for ice to be dispensed. The auger was easy to figure out that it was broken. The dispenser issue took some time. I removed the ice bin and removed the panel behind it. There was a solenoid that burnt and melted and this did not allow the dispenser door to be controlled. I ordered the parts on a Thursday and they arrived on a Friday. Pretty simple to fix once I knew what the problem was. I could have gotten the parts cheaper from Searsparts.com but their description of parts and their pictures did not match and I wanted to make sure I got the right parts the first time. To be on the safe side I ordered a couple of pins and used one of them. The pin was a little hard to remove from the existing assemble so I put it in a vice and used a small pick and hammered out the old pin.
Removed the ice bucket assembly and attempted to dismantle and re-assemble it the same as newafter replacing the auger. I wish the part was shipped with replacement instructions because a simple job turned into a major headache for me because of the following:1) I did not realize that the the nylon nut at the end of the auger rod assembly has a reverse thread. By the time I had it removed using vice-grip pliers and a bench vice.....the nut threads were stripped.2) When removing the nylon washers, spacers, metal cutters from the old auger rod, I grabbed the entire grouping hoping to drop them on the new auger rod as a group. While doing so, the pieces slipped out of my hand and It was very difficult to find the correct order of configuration even with the on-line parts photo. I would recommend that you number each part before removing them from the rod because there is only 1 way all of these pieces can be re-assembled to work as designed.
My teenage daughter and myself (2 women!)completed this task with little issue! I first made sure to read others stories as not to repeat any issues they had. Just member the threads are backwards with taking the washer end off and everything will go easy. We are both kinda handy with repair items so if that describes you than you should be fine.

Kris Jenner at Daytime Emmys: Kim Kardashian's Birth "Happened So Fast!"
Considering she's about to launch her new talk show, you'd expect Kardashian momager Kris Jenner to gab on and on about her new granddaughter as she hit the 40th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards on Sunday, June 16! But the 57-year-old was atypically tight-lipped!
Kris attended the ceremony to present the award for Best Talk Show Host — a trophy we're betting she has her eyes on herself!
But as she strode down the red carpet, the gathered press didn't want to hear about her show, Kris! The topic of the hour was, of course, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West and their brand-new daughter, who was born a day earlier — and weeks ahead of her due date.
"It all happened so fast," Kris told reporters, Us Weekly reports.
"They're doing well," she added before explaining that her publicist didn't want her spilling any more beans.
Luckily, she had a few more words for her reality-show mothership, E!, telling the outlet that Kim is "extremely happy and thrilled for the new baby, and she's doing great, and she's beautiful."

I asked the same question and I don't know the validity of this particular answer but I did understand the concept. When you consume caffeine, it does make your heart pump a bit faster and therefore the blood moves faster which sometimes means the nutrients can't get through the placenta as well.
This is also why exercise is great while pregnant but you need to be mindful of your heartrate.

The new figures released Wednesday show McAuliffe is the choice of 44% of the voters, and Cuccinelli gets 41%. Libertarian nominee Robert Sarvis has the backing of 7% in a statewide poll that was taken betweeen September 9th and last Sunday.


text: The Auburn Little League Senior All-Star team saw its run at the Division II Tournament come to an end Thursday night in Rio Linda. Auburn fell to Tahoe-Tallac 8-5 in the championship round. Auburn used a five-run fourth inning to grab a two-run lead Thursday, but Tahoe-Tallac responded with four runs in the fifth to regain the advantage. The squad from Sacramento tacked on one more run in the seventh. Taylor Graham blasted a three-run home run and finished 2-for-4 at the plate to spark Auburn. Haley Tupen was 3-for-3 as Auburn out-hit Tahoe-Tallac 7-6. The Auburn squad needed two wins over Tahoe-Tallac to win the title after battling back through the elimination bracket to the championship round. Auburn has accumulated an 11-4-1 record over the summer between its games in Little League action and in club play as the Auburn Storm. The 16-and-under squad will play in the Davis-Dixon Tournament next month.

1. Submit them as you have the weekly question sets them via e-mail with the usual html tags.
2. Due 4 PM on 12 May 2009. No late projects accepted.
3. For each of the following passages identify its author's full name, the work's exact title, and its date. Then write mini-essays, such as you written in your question sets, for each passage that explain three ways in which the passage relates (whatever you take that term to mean) to Dickens's Great Expectations. Be as ingenious and specific as possible! One of these connections must concern theme, a second must concern technique (imagery, description, setting, characterization, style, ethos, metre, stanza form, narrative structure, endings, and so on), and a third some aspect of the religious, philosophical, historical, or scientific context. Please do not repeat the same themes, techniques, or contexts; that is, if you discuss imagery in one answer, choose different techniques for the others. Before you begin writing, make sure you have clear the distinction between theme and context. Note: one of your essays on context may concern biographical context.
Hints and Additional Directions
- To make your point include appropriate passages from Great Expectations in your mini-essay.
- Not all the relations you discover or create will turn out to be obvious ones, such as matters of influence or of analogous ideas and techniques. Some may take the form of contrasts or oppositions that tell us something interesting about the authors, literary forms, or times in which these works appeared. Others, particularly matters of context, may require you to use the materials in the web to formulate an hypothesis. In many cases the web provides the materials to create an answer but not an answer itself.
- Until the point at which you actually begin writing, you can discuss the passages below with other members of the class.
- Provide the title and, where possible, the author of any hypertext or other materials, such as the Norton Anthology, Wikipedia, OED Online, Victorian Web, Norton Critical Editions, or reference works, from which you quote or draw. Use the directions on site for forms of in-text citation and bibliographies. Remember to provide the full URL for any document from a website you use.
- Do not use period or stylistic terms, such as Romantic or Victorian, to explain a passage or provide a context. Remember, Carlyle, Carroll, and Dickens did not write in a particular way because they were Victorian. Because they wrote that way, we call such writing Victorian.
- Feel free to make brief comparisons and contrasts to other works when such would add to your discussion.
- Remember: Avoid forms of to be and passive verbs as much as possible.
Ere long, they bore me to my grave. Never tired child lay down in his white bed, and heard the sound of his playthings being laid aside for the night, with a more luxurious satisfaction of repose than I knew, when I felt the coffin settle on the firm earth, and heard the sound of the falling mould upon its lid. It has not the same hollow rattle within the coffin, that it sends up to the edge of the grave. They buried me in no graveyard. They loved me too much for that, I thank them; but they laid me in the grounds of their own castle, amid many trees; where, as it was spring-time, were growing primroses, and blue-bells, and all the families of the woods
Now that I lay in her bosom, the whole earth, and each of her many births, was as a body to me, at my will. I seemed to feel the great heart of the mother beating into mine, and feeding me with her own life, her own essential being and nature. I heard the footsteps of my friends above, and they sent a thrill through my heart. I knew that the helpers had gone, and that the knight and the lady remained, and spoke low, gentle, tearful words of him who lay beneath the yet wounded sod. I rose into a single large primrose that grew by the edge of the grave, and from the window of its humble, trusting face, looked full in the countenance of the lady. I felt that I could manifest myself in the primrose; that it said a part of what I wanted to say; just as in the old time, I had used to betake myself to a song for the same end. The flower caught her eye. She stooped and plucked it, saying, "Oh, you beautiful creature!" and, lightly kissing it, put it in her bosom. It was the first kiss she had ever given me. But the flower soon began to wither, and I forsook it.
It was evening. The sun was below the horizon; but his rosy beams yet illuminated a feathery cloud, that floated high above the world. I arose, I reached the cloud; and, throwing myself upon it, floated with it in sight of the sinking sun. . . . I knew now, that it is by loving, and not by being loved, that one can come nearest the soul of another; yea, that, where two love, it is the loving of each other, and not the being loved by each other, that originates and perfects and assures their blessedness. I knew that love gives to him that loveth, power over any soul beloved, even if that soul know him not, bringing him inwardly close to that spirit; a power that cannot be but for good; for in proportion as selfishness intrudes, the love ceases, and the power which springs therefrom dies.
'I like the Walrus best,' said Alice: 'because you see he was a LITTLE sorry for the poor oysters.'
'He ate more than the Carpenter, though,' said Tweedledee. 'You see he held his handkerchief in front, so that the Carpenter couldn't count how many he took: contrariwise.'
'That was mean!' Alice said indignantly. 'Then I like the Carpenter bestÑif he didn't eat so many as the Walrus.'
'But he ate as many as he could get,' said Tweedledum.
This was a puzzler. After a pause, Alice began, 'Well! They were BOTH very unpleasant characters —'
She spake and King Leodogran rejoiced,
But musing 'Shall I answer yea or nay ? ,
Doubted, and drowsed, nodded and slept, and saw,
Dreaming, a slope of land that ever grew,
Field after field, up to a height, the peak
Haze-hidden, and thereon a phantom king,
Now looming, and now lost; and on the slope
The sword rose, the hind fell, the herd was driven,
Fire glimpsed; and all the land from roof and rick,
In drifts of smoke before a rolling wind,
Stream'd to the peak, and mingled with the haze
And made it thicker; while the phantom king
Sent out at times a voice; and here or there
Stood one who pointed toward the voice, the rest
Slew on and burnt, crying, 'No king of ours,
No son of Uther, and no king of ours';
Till with a wink his dream was changed, the haze
Descended, and the solid earth became
As nothing, and the king stood out in heaven,
Crown'd. And Leodogran awoke, and sent
Ulfius, and Brastias and Bedivere,
Back to the court of Arthur answering yea
Days, weeks, months,years
Afterwards, when both were wives
With children of their own;
Their mother-hearts beset with fears,
Their lives bound up in tender lives;
Laura would call the little ones
And tell them of her early prime,
Those pleasant days long gone
Of not-returning time:
Would talk about the haunted glen,
The wicked, quaint fruit-merchant men,
Their fruits like honey to the throat,
But poison in the blood;
(Men sell not such in any town;)
Would tell them how her sister stood
In deadly peril to do her good,
And win the fiery antidote:
Then joining hands to little hands
Would bid them cling together,
"For there is no friend like a sister,
In calm or stormy weather,
To cheer one on the tedious way,
To fetch one if one goes astray,
To lift one if one totters down,
To strengthen whilst one stands."
And have I not Saint Praxed's ear to pray
Horses for ye, and brown Greek manuscripts,
And mistresses with great smooth marbly limbs?
— That's if ye carve my epitaph aright,
Choice Latin, picked phrase, Tully's every word,
No gaudy ware like Gandolf's second line —
Tully, my masters? Ulpian serves his need!
And then how I shall lie through centuries, 80
And hear the blessed mutter of the mass,
And see God made and eaten all day long,
And feel the steady candle-flame, and taste
Good strong thick stupefying incense-smoke!
For as I lie here, hours of the dead night,
Dying in state and by such slow degrees,
I fold my arms as if they clasped a crook,
And stretch my feet forth straight as stone can point,
And let the bedclothes, for a mortcloth, drop
Into great laps and folds of sculptor's-work:
The rest is silence. So ended are the last words of the chief wisdom of the heathen, spoken of this idol of riches; this idol of yours; this golden image high by measureless cubits, set up where your green fields of England are furnace-burnt into the likeness of the plain of Dura: this idol, forbidden to us, first of all idols, by our own Master and faith; forbidden to us also by every human lip that has ever, in any age or people, been accounted of as able to speak according to the purposes of God. Continue to make that forbidden deity your principal one, and soon no more art, no more science, no more pleasure will be possible. Catastrophe will come; or worse than catastrophe, slow mouldering and withering into Hades. But if you can fix some conception of a true human state of life to be striven for — life for all men as for yourselves — if you can determine some honest and simple order of existence; following those trodden ways of wisdom, which are pleasantness, and seeking her quiet and withdrawn paths, which are peace; — then, and so sanctifying wealth into "commonwealth," all your art, your literature, your daily labours, your domestic affection, and citizen's duty, will join and increase into one magnificent harmony. You will know then how to build, well enough; you will build with stone well, but with flesh better; temples not made with hands, but riveted of hearts; and that kind of marble, crimson-veined, is indeed eternal
'I tell you I must go!' I retorted, roused to something like passion. 'Do you think I can stay to become nothing to you? Do you think I am an automaton?- a machine without feelings? and can bear to have my morsel of bread snatched from my lips, and my drop of living water dashed from my cup? Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong! — I have as much soul as you, — and full as much heart! And if God had gifted me with some beauty and much wealth, I should have made it as hard for you to leave me, as it is now for me to leave you. I am not talking to you now through the medium of custom, conventionalities, nor even of mortal flesh; — it is my spirit that addresses your spirit; just as if both had passed through the grave, and we stood at God's feet, equal, — as we are!'
Here is all the end of all his glory --
Dust, and grass, and barren silent stones.
Dead, like him, one hollow tower and hoary
Naked in the sea-wind stands and moans,
Filled and thrilled with its perpetual story:
Here, where earth is dense with dead men's bones.
Low and loud and long, a voice for ever,
Sounds the wind's clear story like a song. 440
Tomb from tomb the waves devouring sever,
Dust from dust as years relapse along;
Graves where men made sure to rest, and never
Lie dismantled by the seasons' wrong.
Now displaced, devoured and desecrated,
Now by Time's hands darkly disinterred,
These poor dead that sleeping here awaited
Long the archangel's re-creating word,
Closed about with roofs and walls high-gated
Till the blast of judgment should be heard, 450
Naked, shamed, cast out of consecration,
Corpse and coffin, yea the very graves,
Scoffed at, scattered, shaken from their station,
Spurned and scourged of wind and sea like slaves,
Desolate beyond man's desolation,
Shrink and sink into the waste of waves.
Tombs, with bare white piteous bones protruded,
Shroudless, down the loose collapsing banks,
Crumble, from their constant place detruded,
That the sea devours and gives not thanks. 460
Where hope and prayer and sorrow brooded
Gape and slide and perish, ranks on ranks.
The Thames nocturne of blue and gold
Changed to a Harmony in grey:
A barge with ochre-coloured hay
Dropt from the wharf: and chill and cold
The yellow fog came creeping down
The bridges, till the houses' walls
Seemed changed to shadows and St. Paul's
Loomed like a bubble o'er the town.
Then suddenly arose the clang
Of waking life; the streets were stirred
With country waggons: and a bird
Flew to the glistening roofs and sang.
But one pale woman all alone,
The daylight kissing her wan hair,
Loitered beneath the gas lamps' flare,
With lips of flame and heart of stone.
10. Research assignment
Go to the John Hay Library, which is open 9-5 on weekdays, and find in an article contemporary with one of the texts read in English 60 for some relevant material. In an essay equivalent to at least three double-spaced pages include selections from the material you found along with complete bibliographic citation and an introduction and discussion of the material that explains its relevance to the book you've chosen. You might go, for example, to The Illustrated London News, London Times, Punch, or one of the intellectual quarterlies, such as The Westminster Review, to which George Eliot contributed, or The Cornhill Review, which Thackeray edited. There you might find articles on, say, Australia, the condition of governesses, missionary work in India, orphan asylums, primary education, and so on. Make sure these contemporary materials are in fact contemporary — that is, that they come from a few years before or after the work to which you relate them. In this part of the assignment, I am asking you to do scholarship, and scholarship is detective work. Last year several students found so much material that they decided to use these sources for the context sections of other questions. You can do so, too, but please use a different article for each context part of your essay.

China's Premature Power Play Goes Very Wrong

If China is seeking to rattle America and others—especially Japan, the Philippines and Vietnam—it may be miscalculating. In the long run, the premature displays of confidence China has lately shown are likely to harm its interests more than advance them.

Stephen Harper's Conservative Revolution
Jordan Michael Smith, World Affairs Journal
AP Photo
Since 2006, when Conservative Stephen Harper became Canada's prime minister, America's typically quiet and modest neighbor to the north has been much more assertive in pursuing its foreign policy. It has been forceful in advocating what it sees as both its interests and its values. And it has done so in language unlike that of any other Canadian government that has preceded it. It seems that Canada has become, well, un-Canadian.

After a week of cycling, I'm hooked. But I don't want to ride alone the rest of my life. None of my friends cycle, AFAIK, so I am thinking about hooking up with a bike club. Couple of questions:
How much mileage should i be accustomed to before i join? Having just started, 10 miles at 15 mph 3-4x a week is just about my speed. Should I wait until i can do 20 milers or longer comfortably (so to speak) before I join?
Is it your experience that when you ride with others (club or no) you ride farther than you might otherwise?
Are there clubs that will take curmudgeons like me (54 years old) into the fold? I'm in the San Diego area, if anyone knows of something there to recommend.
Is there anything else to the club experience I should know about?

Skyjacker® Hydro and Nitro Shocks offer you a high quality shock
absorber with true velocity sensitive valving. Shock absorbers control the rate at which suspension springs compress and rebound. As the shock is pushed together, this is called bump or compression. As the shock expands, this is called rebound or extension. Absorbing the shock of bumps and suspension loading is actually performed by the springs in the suspension. The shock's real job is controlling the energy stored in the springs.
Improve the ride quality of your stock or lifted vehicle with a set of these Skyjacker shocks. The durable long lasting action of the Skyjacker Nitro and Hydro shocks are designed to automatically adjust to any on or off-road conditions and they are backed by a limited lifetime warranty.
