Texas Department of Public Service troopers found a pound of methamphetamine and arrested two men on drug charges during a traffic stop on Interstate 40 near Groom on Thursday.
The DPS reported troopers stopped a 2007 Chevrolet HHR at 5:42 p.m. for a traffic violation.
Troopers found the meth, valued at $36,806.40, hidden in luggage in the rear of the vehicle, the DPS reported.
Troopers booked two men from Arizona into the Carson County Jail in Panhandle.
Troopers believe the load originated in California and was headed to Arkansas.

Tacoma — Third-grader Roberta Moore already knew a thing or two about chickens, unlike some of her classmates at Lake Louise Elementary School in Lakewood. She said her family has five of the birds at home.
But the Washington State Fair's Traveling Farm still taught her something new.
"I didn't know chickens could lay big, big eggs," 9-year-old Roberta said while standing outside the mobile farm exhibit after seeing an egg twice the size of her hand.
She did know to look at a hen's earlobes to see what color eggs it will lay — one of many interactive lessons third-graders experience as part of the program connected to the popular fair in Puyallup.
For 17 days in September every year, the Fair showcases a variety of animals and provides educational opportunities at the fairgrounds.
The Traveling Farm takes that education a step further during the school year with a customized tractor-trailer that expands to a 33-foot-wide, 48-foot-long mobile classroom. It moves from school to school, teaching kids about food production and farming.
Fair spokeswoman Karen LaFlamme said the program started small in 1986 with a single staff member working with FFA students. Now, there are about 12 rotating fair staff members, with three to four staff on-site during classes.
Schools book a year in advance, and the farm travels to cities within 50 miles of the fairgrounds. In the year that just concluded, the traveling farm visited schools from Tacoma to Black Diamond, from Olympia to Renton.
Peggy Watson, the program coordinator, said the curriculum is designed for early learners from first to third grade. It provides hands-on sensory activities and a petting farm to help students learn how food makes it from the farm to the table.
Kids learn about many topics, which include products that come from sheep and the tools needed to harvest rhubarb.
"There's some really cool things in there," said Anita Seivert, a third-grade teacher at Lake Louise. "It's helping (kids) understand where the resources come from."
Living in an agriculture-rich state, Watson said, children need to understand healthy farm practices. "It makes our life richer," she said. "It makes us appreciate where we live."

While We're Waiting serves as the early morning gathering of WFNY-esque information for your viewing pleasure. Have something you think we should see? Send it to our tips email at email@example.com.
You had me at discombobulated. "I think we're watching a team in free fall. The Cavs look discombobulated on the offensive end and uninterested on defense. The Sixers are a team that likes to run their guards through screens, and it's not like fighting through screens from Spencer Hawes and Elton Brand is easy, but the Cavalier guards just didn't make the necessary effort to reach the Sixers' shooters. This is part of the reason Jodie Meeks (Jodie Meeks!) posted 31 points. The other reason is that Jodie Meeks turned into a human torch at some point in the second quarter." [McGowan/Cavs the Blog]
"Image if, on March 27, 2010, I had told you that on March 27, 2012, the following would be included in an official press release by the Cleveland Indians, what would have been your reaction? "Today the Indians optioned INF LONNIE CHISENHALL and INF MATT LaPORTA to the Triple-A Columbus Clippers."
Not a pleasant one, I would surmise. After all, two years ago at this time, the expectation was that these two guys were eventually going to be the anchors of the Tribe infield, once Chisenhall reached the bigs and LaPorta was no longer blocked by Russell Branyan at first." [Castovince/MLB.com]
If you have never heard or read about Bill Veek, here's your chance– "Cleveland sports history has been littered with terrible ownership.There was Ted Stepien, who as Cavs owner was so incompetent, the NBA actually stepped in to approve trades, and established rules to keep teams from trading successive No. 1 draft picks. There was George Steinbrenner, who before he brought his special brand of mayhem to the Bronx owned the Cleveland Pipers, an American Basketball League team beset by problems, which ended up folding before it could join the NBA. And there was Art Modell, may he rest in peace as soon as possible.
But occasionally, the sports gods smile on Cleveland. They did in 1946, when the Indians were bought by a syndicate headed by Bill Veeck for a purported $1.6 million. Veeck, like Modell, was from a day when someone could organize a group of investors and buy a team with a relatively small outlay of cash. Veeck's investors included Hank Greenberg and Bob Hope, who was born in England but grew up in Cleveland." [Guerrieri/Did the Tribe Win Last Night]
The video is worth it. Everytime. "We had a good laugh this past weekend while briefly celebrating the eleven year anniversary of one of the most infamous plays in baseball history. Of course, I'm referring to the events of March 24, 2001, and more specifically, the seventh inning of a Spring Training game between the Arizona Diamondbacks and San Francisco Giants, when Randy Johnson threw a fastball that struck and killed a dove.
According to witnesses and anyone who has taken the time to view the YouTube clip, a bird swooped between the pitcher's mound and home plate just as Johnson, one of the hardest throwing pitchers to ever play the game, was releasing the ball. His fastball hit the bird at such a velocity as to make it appear as though it had vapourized into thin air, leaving only feathers as evidence of its previous existence. For the record, the official call from the home plate umpire was 'no pitch.' " [Parkes/The Score]
Make no mistake. The Louisville-Kentucky game is going to capsize the Final Four before it ever gets started. The two schools hate each other like poison, going back to the days when that virulent old racist Adolph Rupp wouldn't schedule Louisville because he was afraid Wes Unseld would kick his ass. That alone would be enough. Add to it, however, the two-man carnival of egos that is Rick Pitino against John Calipari, the latter a Mordred-like presence in the career of the former, tracking Pitino's career path almost perfectly, from a beginning in Massachusetts to an unsuccessful stint in the NBA to wild success upon returning to the college ranks. If there hasn't been drama on the court, there is now high melodrama off of it. The raw, extravagant diva-tude on display is going to be enough to make the French Quarter look like a papal high mass. Because things are only what they are sold to be these days, this is already the Louisville-Kentucky Final Four. Ohio State and Kansas — while massive sports-entertainment conglomerates in their own right — are the supporting players. There is something to be said for supporting players. Sometimes, they're doing the only real work worth watching. [Charles P. Pierce/Grantland]
On tanking– "This tactic is so commonplace that fans believe that teams are supposed to "get bad to get good." But not only is this a perversion of the sport, it also means that a lot of teams actually "get bad … and stay bad." Right now superstar-grade players are going into a lottery populated by the worst teams, in a sport where one great player has more impact than in any other team sport and is locked into below-market salaries throughout their careers (because of rookie scale contracts followed by maximum-salary limits).
Meanwhile, teams that win consistently very seldom get players like that, by trade or any other means. Essentially, the best-run teams are penalized while the worst-run teams are rewarded. Is it any wonder that many front offices aren't sweating losses?" [Abbott/TrueHoop]

On holiday at home for a couple of weeks and plenty of home "Maintenance" things being done.One of which is tidying up the bike shed. It was getting into a bit of a tip and bike maintenance was getting awkward as the first thing to do was find the tools to be able to start maintaining the bikes. So it was time for a bit of Spring Cleaning.
Everything out and sweep. Never realised how many cable ties I had. Never seem to have any so I always have to go out and buy some. Took a couple of hours just to empty the shed and just as I had covered the lawn with bikes and tool boxes and rubbish (Never throw away what everyone else thinks of as rubbish as it may be usefull)--My G.D came round to show me her new shoes. Just a pity they are white as she is like me with regards to keeping things clean.
But a few hours after and the shed was tidy- bikes put away and a big pile for the tip. I could even see the wood on the workbench so it must have been a thorough sort out.
Cshed..jpg Cbench..jpg
But one of the objects of tidying the shed was to find tools that had been misplaced. One of those tools was my pedal spanner. Not a tool many would go out and buy as any 15mm spanner will fit. Problem is I also have Ross- My son-in-law- who maintains his bike here. We had to change the pedals when we changed his crank and couldn't find the Pedal spanner- couldn't fing a 15mm either and he started to use my very expensive Cone spanners- He still has the wrong pedals on his bike- after a lot osf shouting and swearing at him.
Well I found the pedal spanner- and 4 chain breakers and the Chain cleaning tool and a lot of other things I had forgotten I still had. Look at the pic and you can see why the pedal spanner is so special. IT IS LONG. Pedals go on easy enough with just enough force to keep them on- but they don't come off easily after a couple of years riding and corrosion. That is why a $15 spanner is well worth it.
Cpedal spanner..jpg
So One job jobbed and only the greenhouse to tidy, the windows to paint and the water fall on the pond to sort and---
I am going to need to go back to work for a rest to get get over this holiday.

just practicing on landscapes again
Love the atmosphere and especially the hidden robot)
it looks so trad but it's digital. O-o WOW amazing.
yup. this rocks!
wooow, your shading and colors gives the image such extreme depth, i literally feel as if i'm there, walking out of some cool, shady brush through a gulch toward the warm humid oasis.
I'm digging the unique brushwork/texture. Nice work.
Something about the colors reminds me of a painting with a similar name by Manet. Or at least, I think it was Manet of I read his name correctly.
I just want to eat it. Love the wobbly texture so much.
Something about this seems very reminiscent of studio ghibli. Beautiful overall.
I want this to be part of a feature film. You continue to amaze me and are one of my favorite artists.
Very peaceful
I hope you know how good you are
Holy, exquisitely fantastic! This Valley-like Landscape is stunning and The Characters look incredible! The river, statue, poses, plant life, atmosphere, textures, mountain, walking sticks, concept, composition, uniqueness, colors, lighting, style, and other details are also wonderful! Magnificent work!
It came out beautifully. Well done.
My eyes. They are pleased.
that is fucking fantastic!!!
Holy shit!
Man, that statue in background is so damn neat, so is the rest of the image !
yes yes YES!
i loving it!
Great stuff!
absolutely gorgeous!
J'ai pris du temps avant de réaliser ce qui se cacher derrière les buissons. J'adore.
Wow… this is really pretty.
what the hell dude
So beautiful!! very nice o/
This is awesome! I love the brushstrokes and the color palette.
Love this. Very nice work, man!

A friend gifted me a Coda triple crankset. There aren't many identifying marks, but according to him, it uses an Octalink BB. (It's got eight splines.)
Would it be V1 or V2? From what I've gathered V1 was used mostly for road and a few models of XTR, so I'm thinking V2.
I assume 113 would be a good spindle length...
Then I found this old thread:
um, coda also had their own splined pattern a few years ago. Completely proprietary, but revolutionary in how it preceded modern splined designs (talking modern here, not 1940s designs). I don't know much about it except the cranks were marketed as "magic motorcycle" cranks in their road incarnation.
excellent news. CODA made their weird cranks primarily for their high end mtbs though, with 29/42t chainrings. But if you really had some of those I would suggest selling them on ebay as they fetch quite a penny!
- joel
What are the chances I have this weird CODA standard? The inner ring is 29t....but there's a good chance this isn't an OEM ring as this was a take-off from a racer's bike.

Way to set an example, piggy man.
via ABC Local
A Harris County deputy constable is facing charges after being caught up in his own department's prostitution sting.
Emmanuel Augustine, 29, is charged with prostitution. According to investigators, the Harris County Precinct 4 Constable's Office was working the sting in an area near Imperial Valley and FM 1960 when Augustine, who works at Precinct 4, solicited the undercover deputy for sex. We're told he wasn't on duty at the time but he was wearing his uniform pants.
Augustine has worked for Precinct 4 as a patrol deputy since 2009. In response to his arrest, the agency issued the following statement:
"Following his identification, the administration was notified and responded to the arrest location. Emmanuel Augustine was placed on immediate administrative suspension without pay pending an investigation into the incident."
In probable cause court Wednesday evening, Augustine was kept separate from the other inmates. The judge released him on his own recognizance. He gets to go home, but his job in is question.
If convicted of the class B misdemeanor, Augustine faces a fine of up to $2,000 and/or jail time of not more than 180 days.

Over 1,300 companies exhibit at the show, and over 45,000 attendees are expected during the event, which runs September 9th – 14th.
In today's media-rich society, bringing high quality media experiences to people when, where, and how they want vital. Microsoft delivers an end-to-end media platform, making it easier for content owners and broadcasters to reach consumers across devices and operating systems. Smooth Streaming is a key part of this platform and integrated throughout the Microsoft platform and partner ecosystem.
The Microsoft presence at IBC will be in a unique venue called the Topaz Lounge. In addition to demos of many technologies that support Microsoft digital media supply chains, there is informal meeting space to meet with Microsoft subject matter experts, and a coffee and refreshments bar open throughout the day. In-depth meetings will be held in an adjoining set of scheduled meeting rooms.
Four demonstration pods in this area will show IIS Smooth Streaming in action plus new technology innovations. One pod is about the Smooth Streaming Platform, and will highlight some of the features coming soon in IIS Media Services 4.0. Another pod will feature new developments in Live 3D Smooth Streaming.

When Uwe reviewed the FirePro V8800, he concluded that it trailed the Quadro 5000 in almost every benchmark and rightly awarded Nvidia's board a victory.
Then AMD got its drivers into better shape. The FirePro V8800 would likely still trail the Quadro by a notable margin today. Remember that the FirePro card also sells for significantly less, though.
Today's comparison is far less balanced from a pricing perspective. The V9800 is a $3500 card, while the Quadro is available under $2000. That premium gets you a 4 GB frame buffer (which AMD says is good for massive rendering tasks), six display outputs (which works well for professionals doing their jobs across huge desktops), and frame lock/genlock support. If none of those features sound important to you, the FirePro V8800 is a more sensible board to consider. Fortunately, the performance reported here, with the latest drivers, should be representative of that card, too. The V9800 only runs 25 MHz faster than the V8800, and we didn't use any workloads capable of taxing that large repository of GDDR5. From that angle, we're simply updating Uwe's results from September with newer software, and coming to the same conclusion—generally, Nvidia's Quadro is the faster card.
AMD and Nvidia each have their own fortes that make generalizations much less meaningful than they'd be in a desktop graphics card review.
If you're a creative professional working with Adobe's CS5 suite, then the Quadro is hands-down a no-brainer. The fact that Nvidia had the engineers to help develop Adobe's Mercury Playback Engine was a huge strategic win for both Adobe and Nvidia. The former was languishing in its development, only just implementing 64-bit support, while the latter needed a more complete GPU-based acceleration solution than Elemental's Accelerator plug-in for CS4. The extent to which hardware support speeds up the rendering of effects-heavy work simply embarrasses the FirePro lineup. And if you didn't watch the video of the Paladin trailer we used for testing, you really owe it to yourself to check out.
At the same time, it's possible that Nvidia's emphasis on GPGPU computing caused it to fall behind elsewhere. AMD's Eyefinity technology has proven to be a boon on the desktop space, and it's now strutting its stuff in the workstation market. The FirePro V9800's ability to drive six DisplayPort-equipped displays concurrently is unprecedented. If that's a capability that means something to you, you're only going to find it in one place. Even AMD's FirePro V8800 can do four simultaneous display outputs, while Nvidia's highest-end board is limited to a now-pedestrian two.
Clearly, this story doesn't end with a handful of tests from SPEC. There was a period there, after the workstation graphics market consolidated down to ATI and Nvidia, that professional cards looked a lot like their desktop counterparts with some special driver sauce sprinkled on top. Now we're looking at true differentiating features that steer professionals toward one product or the other based on their tasks.
1Anonymous , 18 November 2010 03:53Can you explain me why do have made renderings tests with this cards? They don't effect anything since this render engines have no CUDA or OPENCL.
You could have put there an Intel crap and the results would be the same.
0nitro912gr , 29 November 2010 19:54What a big mistake in testing with cpu based methods!
I work in Vue a lot and when the scene starts to count billions of polygons my poor 4850 is getting down to it's knees, when I try to move something on the scene, or move the camera. This is where these cards can make the difference.
This is where you have to test these cards not in cpu based final renderings. Only in specific CUDA enabled renderers we can see the gpu to get in final render progress and only nvidia ones.
The right question is how these cards manage with the frame rate in 4 views with thousands of objects an billions of polygons.
No offense, but next time give the testing review to someone who actually have some experience in 3D, because first of all some things are making a conflict with preview and well informed articles about pro cards and second if you work with 3D you know what you are wanting for these cards and what they promise to do!
Again no offense, just pointing out the obvious.

I bought a 1996 Honda civic ex about 3 mths ago, ran into some problems, check engine light came on, took it to get checked and they said it was the catalytic converter. Aked a friend who said it was high grade gas i ran, need to change the spark plugs and run cheaper gas. this did the trick for a short time, then the check engine light came on again and i took it to a mechanic who said i need to run high grade gas and change my wires. did this and it was ok for 1-2 days, then the car started putt putting (literally). Took back to mechanic who said it was the wires, i got more expensive wires and the car ran great for 1 wk or so, then started again, i was told it was the wires, i needed to buy NGK wires for a Honda. I did this and now my car is worse than before. We checked the plugs and wires, could it be catalytic converter? everytime the plugs/wires are dealt with the car will run better, then goes right back to the way it was before...

ANSWER by mastertech6371 , June 15, 2010
the cat was always bad from the beginning. no grade of gas will cause a check engine light. the cat has failed and needs to be replaced. its failure is from your missfires. i am afraid to say that you need to take it to someone who can diag it correctly. 3 sets of wires cannot be defective. you may have injector issues or a bad distributor causing the missfire. Roy
COMMENT by hondagal , June 15, 2010
Thanks, I finally took my car into the mechanic and they ran all the test. 2 codes showed up, 1 was the MAP sensor and the other was catalytic efficiency. However, he said that everything that they have tested points directly to the sensor. They are going to replace the sensor and "clean" the gas. Hopefully all this will solve the problem!
ANSWER by robin7798 , June 05, 2014
I'm not a mechanic, but this restored power to my car: Go to the Dollar Tree store and buy Performance Booster ($1.00) and Octane Booster ($1.00) and Fuel Injector Cleaner ($1.00) and put it in the gas tank, or try a supplement called Restore ($8.00) at Auto Zone. I use Bosch spark plugs and spark plug wires and I have 235,000 original 1 owner miles!

Local builders placed a bet in 2011 that more Clark County residents would want to live in apartments.
At the same time as single-family homebuilding dropped 32.7 percent, apartment building took off. Construction of new multi-family projects increased 10-fold in 2011 from a year earlier in unincorporated Clark County, according to year-end figures from the county's community development department.
Developers were issued permits to build 22 multi-family buildings with 189 units, valued at more than $16.1 million in 2011, up from $1.5 million worth of projects in 2010, when just two apartment buildings with 18 units were permitted.
Meanwhile, new housing starts reached a 10-year low in 2011, when just 348 permits were handed out to build single-family homes, a 32.4 percent decline from 515 permits issued in 2010.
Although many would-be buyers of new homes have been sidelined by tighter lending standards, people still have to live somewhere, said Mike Kinnaman, past president and board member of the Building Industry Association of Clark County, which represents about 600 businesses involved in the housing industry.
But the housing industry's slump has created an opportunity for some construction companies to get back into the business, said Kinnaman, owner of Vancouver-based Designers Northwest home-remodeling company.
"I'm sure it's been a real godsend to have any projects being built at all," he said.
Demand for apartments has also been pushed along by a three-year decline in new multi-family development
and an overall drop in homeownership throughout the Portland-Vancouver metro area, said Phillip Barry, a real estate broker who specializes in apartment building transactions with Joseph Bernard Investment Real Estate in Portland.
According to Barry, the percentage of citizens who own homes in the four-county metro area, which includes Clark County, has declined from 69 percent of the population in 2006 to 64 percent of the population in 2011.
New apartment construction is fueled by population growth in the Portland-Vancouver area as well. About 25,000 people moved into the four-county metro area, which includes Clark County, in 2009. The metro area's population grew by about 17,000 people in 2010.
"All the pieces are coming together," Barry said, creating demand for apartment units that's allowed investors — owners of residential complexes — to increase rents and generate more revenue.
"Rents jumped 8 percent within the last year, which is significant. The last couple of years were relatively flat," he said.
Vancouver apartment developer Elie Kassab also credits shifting attitudes among young adults as a factor in the booming apartment market.
"My research tells me the American dream does not include owning a home anymore," said Kassab, who plans to break ground this year on Prestige Plaza, a two-building complex with 92 residential units in downtown Vancouver.
Kassab cites mobility as one reason young college-educated adults are choosing to rent instead of purchase their homes.
"Mobility is very important to them," he said. "People who have good jobs want to be able to pick up and go."

Dennis Eckersley tells Jack Morris to 'zip it' over Clay Buchholz accusations
|05.02.13 at 11:17 pm ET
NESN analyst Dennis Eckersley took umbrage to comments by Blue Jays broadcaster Jack Morris in which the career 254-game winner suggested that Red Sox starter Clay Buchholz had been doctoring the baseball with a substance on his left forearm. During Thursday night's broadcast on SportsNet of the Sox-Jays game, Morris reportedly expounded on comments by former Jays pitcher Dirk Hayhurst that Buchholz had used an illegal substance.
Eckersley became incensed about Morris' accusations, noting that it would be impossible for Buchholz to command his arsenal in such dominating fashion if he were using an illegal substance on the ball.
"I was upset during the game when we found out what was happening with Jack Morris, and the more I saw it, the more I started thinking about it, it made me more and more angry about Jack Morris. To me, that's clueless on his part," Eckersley said on NESN. "If he knew anything about Buchholz, he knows how nasty he is. His ball doesn't dance all over the place. The guy paints. He's got nasty stuff. [Morris] should know that, and he's gotten carried away. It becomes about Jack Morris almost.
"Where's Jack Morris been all these years, anyway?" Eckersley continued. "He finally gets a job up there in Toronto and he has to make statements like that and take away from what this kid has done? I think it's wrong. He's pitched long enough to know. Guys, you talk about stick-'em, whatever that is, pine tar. He knows that you go to something if you're sweaty just to get a grip. It's all about a grip. You saw the comment — that guy [Hayhurst] backed off a little bit, saying maybe it's rosin, maybe it's this, but if you just watch the game, you know: the ball disappears on you.
"When you throw a spitball, the ball falls off the table, and you know it right away. The hitters didn't complain, but Jack Morris is. I think Jack Morris should zip it," Eckersley added. "I feel sorry for Buchholz to even have to deal with this. I'm styling here, and you're taking away from me, a guy that can't even make it to the Hall of Fame yet, and he's chirping over there — zip it."
(As it turns out, Eckersley and Morris have something of a history of contentious interaction dating to their playing days.)
During Thursday night's broadcast, Morris also noted that Junichi Tazawa rubbed his fingers on his left forearm at one point, and raised questions about whether Tazawa was cheating.
"It looks to me like he's got a little something on his forearm also. I don't know if that's anything in the slippery point — it might be some tacky stuff to get a feel, but it's obvious that he has gone to his forearm, too," Morris said. "Who knows? That might just be deception, too."
Red Sox manager John Farrell, asked by reporters in Toronto about Morris' suggestion about his reliever, was terse.
"I have really no response," Farrell told reporters. "If comments are going to be made because pitchers pitched well, then we'll take it as a compliment."

TACOMA, Wash. (AP) — A Lakewood man charged with possessing child pornography may have been sending images to inmates of the Special Commitment Center for sex predators on McNeil Island.
The News Tribune reports 50-year-old Michael A. Tharp was charged last week in federal court in Tacoma and is being held at the federal detention center in SeaTac.
Investigators write in court papers that some commitment center residents said they sent Tharp money for child pornography. Tharp denied distributing child pornography and said he provided legal research services.

Celebrate Your Day
A little more love today for Crate Paper's Emma's Shoppe 6x6 paper collection and the coordinating Eclectic Buttons I loved on a couple of days ago. Emma's Shoppe is just such a yummy collection! The sentiment is from JustRite's awesome all-purpose mini sentiment set Just Because. I die-cut it with a Spellbinders Ribbon Banners die, then gave the banner a pedestal by using just a portion of one of Spellbinders Elegant Posts dies. The birds are from Prima's Birdsong Script Collection. I originally intended this to be a birthday card, but the pair of birds sure gives it a wedding or anniversary feel, don't you think? More than okay, though, as I know a very special couple who will be celebrating forty-eight years of marriage in just a few days -- my parents.
Hope you're having a great week! I am, but I sure am finding stamp time hard to come by! Take care!!

A checklist for building your mobile enterprise
Jim Khamis 270006VJCQ email@example.com | | Tags:  unifiedcommunications enterprisemobility mobile
0 Comments | 3,067 Visits
The difference between an integrated mobile enterprise and one that simply uses mobile devices is huge.
While an organisation using mobile devices might employ some tactical initiatives – such as enabling employees to use their own mobile devices for remote email access – it does so without strategic integration.
A genuinely mobile enterprise, on the other hand, establishes mobility between employees and customers that delivers on its strategic business goals. The result is characterised by instant access to data and applications over a variety of devices, with high levels of security, delivering greater levels of productivity and customer satisfaction.
But like any great quest, success is entirely dependent on preparation. So if you're a manager tasked with planning your organisation's transformation toward becoming a mobile enterprise, the following checklist should prove useful:

I can get to sleep but I can't stay asleep
Wednesday, October 07, 2009
I am always tired. My biggest problem is that I fall asleep so easily when I sit down to watch TV, but I never sleep very long unless I intend to take a short nap in the afternoon, then I can sleep for an hour and half to 2 hours easy.
At night, I am usually awake every hour or so. Sometimes I can go right back to sleep, but most often it can take me 15 or 20 minutes to nod off again, If I ever sleep for 2 hours straight at night, I think I have died and gone to heaven.
My doctor gave me some sleeping pills, but they left such a terrible metallic taste in my mouth plus I also felt nauseated the next day, so I had to stop taking them. I tried them for only 3 nights.
I have tried warm milk, but that didn't help, plus I hate the taste of white milk, I don't drink anything hot such as tea or coffee, not even herbal teas like camomile, because I break out in a sweat, and that's not comfortable just before bedtime. Turkey works (or should I say the L-triptophan in the turkey) but I'm trying to loose weight, and pigging out will not help with that goal.
Any suggestions?
Some mornings I am so tired, it is very hard for me to get get mobile,

Hello, I was just diagnosed with sleep apnea and during the sleep study they found that I stop breathing on an average of every two minutes, that is the bad news, however the good news is that with a nasal CPAP on for about 4 hours, I did not stop breathing, once. so with in the next week or so when I get the machine i'll start feeling better. The doctor said I should start feeling better within 2 weeks, and could even be off my high pulse medicaiton in 4-6 months. I'll try to check back in in a couple weeks or so, Joyce

which sleeping pill were you taking?
I have Insomnia and I work 3rd shift.. a not so great combination.. at one point I was taking hours to fall asleep or if I got to sleep i would wake up every hour.
after some experimenting I take half a 10mg ambien and a quarter of a 3mg melatonin and I'm able to sleep for 6 hours straight.. i've found more than this leaves me feeling a bit drugged and foggy when I wake up.
the ambien doesn't give me any noticeable side effects..

I have been frustrated by waking up too, and haven't had any sleep for years. I found melatonin helps, but I have to be able to sleep in to use it. I am so busy, I want to get up early. I try to drink all my fluids early in the morning and day, and very little at night so I don't have the excuse of waking up to use the bathroom. A dark quiet room is essential and don't have a glowing digital clock where you can see it. Looking at the time when you wake up is a bad habit. Sleep testing is a must, to rule out apnea. I am thinking of getting it done myself if I can find some time!
All the best dealing with this very frustrating problem!

It sounds to me like you might have sleep apnea. Talk to your doctor about taking a sleep test.

I went through this for about a month. Even tried sleeping pills and still woke up in the middle of the night. Unfortunately for me it was about letting it ride out, took about a month but then I was able to get full night sleep again. Hope you get some sleep soon.

You could also try looking into a sleep test. I was tired all the time, went for the testing, and found out I have two sleeping disorders. One of those disorders can cause a heartattack, long term, so I was really happy I went. Some of the disorders can be treated with diet, others with medication and sleep apnea with a machine that you wear while sleeping.

I have the same problem. Then I get in the pattern of taking a nap during the day and having trouble sleeping at night. One thing that I've found that helps when I get up in the night is not to turn on the overhead light but instead use a low night light to get around the house. They say that the light tricks your body into thinking it's day time.Today I've been up since 3 and I still have to go to work. Melatonin works for some people.

I have similar problems. I bought a light blocking sleep mask and that's really helped me out. I wear it on nights that I notice that I'm having concentration problems or if I wake up more than once a night. It might be worth a try! If it works for you, it's a really inexpensive solution!

I have a Windows XP pc running fine with network and internet. I tried dualbooting the same with Windows Vista. After installation I found that network route shows 0.0.0.0. I reinstalled it again and again, also tried 32bit as well as 64bit but the problem exists as it is. Ive two routers; one is Netgear cable router and second Speedtouch ADSL wireless router.
I checked both Router Ip and Lan Ip, both are OK. My IPv6 is disabled. I also ran route delete 0.0.0.0 command and replugged network cable but still the problem wont go. I tried searching web but not getting proper results as my problem. So can anyone here please tell me how can I remove the 0.0.0.0 so that I can have LAN connection when on
the username/password authentication screen? Many thanks for all your helps.

There was floodlight failure at half-time and after a half-hour wait the lights failed to come on again, leaving match official John Beaton with no option but to abandon the match at 0-0.
After the first failure, ground staff managed to get the power restored - only for it to fail again a few seconds later.
Half-time was extended giving the hosts another chance to restore light, which they managed to do - only for a third failure a few minutes later, at which point the decision was made to call things off.
Beaton said: "That's the first time I've abandoned a match, certainly at this level.
"The lights have obviously gone off and we've given it as long as we can.
"The first two occasions the lights went on immediately and then the third time it looked as if they were going to stay on. That was the last chance.
"The police had said if they (the lights) went again they couldn't really leave it any longer. Unfortunately that's been the case."
Beaton continued: "There were discussions with the police and there was an SPFL delegate at the match as well.
"The County officials were all involved as well. Ultimately it's the referee's decision and we came to an agreement that third time around we couldn't leave it any longer. Everyone understands that."
Caley Thistle boss Terry Butcher said: "We're disappointed because we were doing okay in the first half.
"After the first 10 minutes I thought we dominated the game without really creating chances or having a decent final ball.
"I was looking forward to a good second half. The team talk was about doing the same and getting in behind them if we could and just being more ruthless in the final third."
County manager Derek Adams felt his side had the upper hand before the lights went out.
He said: "I'm disappointed. I thought we had a good opportunity to win the match. I thought we did well enough in the first half."
Adams also believed the visitors should have been down to nine men by the break.
He explained: "There were a couple of sending-offs in the first half.
"(Ross) Draper was a straight elbow and (Gary) Warren was a really bad tackle on Melvin De Leeuw. They were both shocking challenges.
"The advantage was with us and I thought we were going to go on and win the match. It was frustrating for everyone involved."
