Bausch & Lomb Recalls Lens Solution
Complex Scenario continued...
"I think what I'm trying to avoid here is talking about blame as opposed to trying to talk about fixing the problem," Schultz says.
The FDA has been investigating Bausch & Lomb's plant and facilities in Greenville, S.C., where ReNu with MoistureLoc was made, as part of the current Fusarium investigation.
Schultz says the FDA will comment "within the next few days" about "some issues related to good manufacturing practices" at those facilities. But current information shows no link between those issues and the Fusarium cases, Schultz notes.
"At this particular time, based on the information that we have to date, there does not appear to be a direct relationship between those findings and this Fusarium outbreak," Schultz says.
Rare Eye Infections
Fusarium keratitis is rare in contact lens users.
"There is a baseline rate of Fusarium keratitis as well as other forms of keratitis that have been reported on for many years," Schultz says, noting an "apparent spike" in cases seen in users of ReNu with MoistureLoc.
That spike is "not a high percentage problem," given the widespread use of the solution, Schultz notes. "But certainly the consequences are serious and our goal was to try to drop that rate to as low as it could possibly be, recognizing that this is an infection that will occur sporadically," he says.
ReNu with MoistureLoc was introduced in 2004. Schultz says he doesn't know of any formulation changes to the product since then. It can take months or even years for such problems to surface, Schultz says.
"To our best understanding some of these cases did start appearing earlier on in '05 and at this point it's a matter of going back and looking at those cases with the understanding we have now," Schultz says.

> Optical Isolators
Optical Isolators
Connectors and other optical components are present in the optical fiber transmission line, and diverse return beams are generated from the end faces of these components. Return beams are known to have a destabilizing effect on oscillation of the laser source and on operation of the optical fiber amplifier, thus resulting in poor transmission performance.
An optical isolator is composed of (1) a magnetic garnet crystal having a Faraday effect, (2) a permanent magnet for applying a designated magnetic field, and (3) polarizing elements whichpermit only forward light to pass while shutting out backward light. For this reason, optical isolators are indispensable devices for eliminating the adverse effect of return beams in high-speed optical fiber transmittance routes and amplifiers. By focusing on optical isolators with their operation wavelengths in the 1.30-1.55 um range used widely in optical fiber communication, we shall examine thier structures, mechanisms, and applications, along with the garnet crystals used in optical isolators.
2-1. Polarization-Dependent Type
Figure 1 shoows the composition of a polarization-dependent optical isolator. The optical isolator consists of two polarization elements (a polarizer and an analyzer having a 45° differential in the direction of their light transmission axes), and of a 45° Faraday rotator interposed between the polarization elements. A forward light passing the optical isolator undergoes the following: (1) when passing through the polarizer, the incident light is transformed into a linearly polarized light; (2) when passing through the Faraday rotator, the polarization plane of the linearly polarized light is rorared 45°; (3) this light passes through the analyzer without loss since its polarization plane is now in the same direction as the light transmission axis of the analyzer, which is tilted 45° from the polarizer in the direction of Faraday rotation.
In contrast, a backward light undergoes a slightly different process: (1) when passing through the analyzer, the vackward light is transformed into a linearly polarized light with a 45° tilt in the transmission axis; (2) when passing thruogh the Faraday rotater, the polarization plane of the backward light is rotated 45°in the same direction as the initial tilt; (3) this light is completely shut out by the polarizer because its polarization plane is now 90° away from the light transmission axis of the polarizer.
Polarization-dependent isolator are primarily incorporated in semiconductor laser modules. Accordingly, miniaturization has been an important target. To realize this goal, PBS is being replaced by infrared polarization glass as a polarization element. Bi-substituted iron garnet films are used as Faraday rotators due to their low saturaton magnetization and large rotation capacity. Sm-Co type rare-earth magmets are employed to apply a designated magnetic filed to the Faraday rotator.
The performance of optcal isolators is primarily evaluated by thier insertion losses and isolations, both of which are detetmined by the absorption losses end-face reflectances, and the extinction ratios of optical elements. For this reason, technologies to enhance and actualize the characteristics of optical elements become important. At present, we have adhesive-free and metal-joined type single-tier polarization-dependent isolators measuring 3 x 3 mm in dimension, 0.2 dB in insertion loss, and 40 dB in isolation (see Figure 2).
2-2. Pokarization-Independent Type
Figure 3 shows the composition of a polarization-independent optical isolator. A 45° Faraday rotator is interposed between two wedge-shaped birefringent plates, and a lens is placed at both ends of the isolator for junction with optical fibers. While polarization-dependent optical isolators allow only the light polarized in a specific direction, polarization-independent isolators transmit all polarized light. Consequently, these isolators are frequently used in optical fiber amplifiers.
First, a forward incident light is separated into ordinary and extraordinary rays by the No.1 birefringent plate. Second, the polarization planes of these rays are each rotate 45° by the Faraday rotator. Third, ordinary and extraordinary rays pass through the No.2 birefringent plate having such an optic axis that the relationbetween the two types of rays is maintained; consequently, both raysare refracted in an identical parallel direction when exiting from the No.2 birefringent plate. Fourth, these collomate beams are converged into the downstream optical fiber through a lens.
On the other hand, a backward light incident on the same optical isolator is separated into ordinary and extraordinary rays whose relation is reversed with that of a forward light due to the non-reciprocality of the Faraday rotation. Consequently, rays passing through the No.1 birefringent plate do not become parallel to each other, so they cannot be converged into the upstream optical fiber.
Thanks to their superior extinction ratios and wide differences between the refraction indexes of ordinary and extraordinary rays, rutile single crystals (TiO2) are mostly used as birefringent plates. Non-spherical lenses, with a focal distance of several millimeters, are employed to link the isolator with oprical fibers.
At present, we have single-tier, single-mode-fiber-coupled and polarization-independent isolators measuring φ6.0 x 33 mm in dimension, 0.5 dB in insertion loss, approx.40 dB in isolotion, 60 dB in return loss, and 0.03 p/sec in polarization-mode dispersin(see Figure 4).
2-3. Composite Type
An optical fiber amplifier is comprised of Er-doped (rare earth added) fibers, a wavelength-division multiplexer (WDM), a pumping diode laser, a polarization-independent isolator, and other passive components. Figure 5 illustrates the general composition of an amplifier. Previously, WDM and isolators were separately incorporated in amplifiers, but recently the sections enclosed in the broken lines (1) to (3) have been increasongly modularized, thus eliminating some of the lens systems needed for the been further miniaturized while preventing insertion loss from rising.
The types of optical fiber amplifiers are determined by the directions of signal light and pump light inside Er-doped fibers. The directions are either (1) identical, (2) reverse, or (3) both. They are called, forword pumping, backward pumping and two-way pumping, respectively. Dwpending on which of these three types of amplifiers is necessary, either (1), (2) or both of the modules shown Figure 5 are selected. In addition, there is another module (3) that is combined with a bandpass filter (designed to shut out pump light from the isolator) in order to shut out return beams from the optical circuit.
Figure 6 presents a composite type optical isolator for forward pumping. This isolator measures 25 x 30 x 8 mm in dimension,0.8 dB in insertion loss for both signal light (wavelength of 1.55 um) and pump light, 40 dG in isolation, and 55 dB or more in reflection attenuation.
3. Magnetic Garnet Crystal
3-1. YIG Single Crystal
A YIG single crystal is grown using the floating zone (FZ) method. Figure 7 shows the deagram of the FZ furnace used. Y
and Fe
are mixed to suit the stoichiometric composition of YIG, and then the mixture is sintered. The resultant sinter is set as a mother stick on one shaft in an FZ furnace, while a YIG seed crystal is set on the remaining shaft. The sintered material of a prescribed formulation is placed in the central area between the mother stick and the seed crystal in order to create the fluid needed to promote the deposition of YIG single crystal. Light from halogen lamps is focused on the central area, shile the two shafts are rotated. The central area, when heated in an oxygenic atmosphere, forms a molten zone. Under this condition, if the mother stick and the seed is moved at a constant speed, if result in the movement of the molten zone along the mother stick, thus gowing single crystals from the YIG sinter.
Since the FZ method grows crystal from a mother stick that is suspended in the air, contamination is precluded and a high-purity crystal is cultivate. The FZ method produces ingots measuring 012 x 120 mm. The specular condition off the coating finish and the trecision of the disk thickness determine the characteristics of optical isolators.
3-2. Bi-Substituted Iron Garnet Thick Films
Bi-substitued iron garnet thick films are grown by the liquid phase epitaxy (LPE) method. Figure 8 illustrates the structure of an LPE furnace. Crustal materials and a PbO-B
flux are heated and made molten in a platinum crucible. Sigle crystal wafers, such as GdCa)
, are soaked on the molten surface while rotated, which causes a Bi-substituted iron garnet thick film to be grown on the wafers. Currently, thick films measuring as much as 3 inches in diameter can be grown.
To obtain 45° Faraday rotators, these films must be ground to a certain thiclness, applied with anti-reflective coating, and then cut into 1-2 mm squares ti fit of the isolators. Having a greater Faraday rotation capacity than YIG single crystals, Bi-substituted iron garnet thicl films must be thinned in the order of 100 um, so higher-precision processing is required.
3-3. Comparison of YIG Single Crystals and Bi-substituted Iron Garnet Thick Films
YIG single crystals fare better than Bi-substituted iron garnet thick films in temperature coefficient and wavelength coefficient for Faraday rotation. If these caracteristics are given higher priority, YIG single crystals are selected as Faraday rotators. On the other hand, the advantages of Bi-substituted iron garnet thick films include: (1) the time required to grow crystal is greatly shortened,(2) the length of rotators can be reduced to one-fifth or even less due to increased rotation capacity, and (3) the saturation magnetization si low.
These features lead to a price reduction and miniaturization of optical isolators; therefore, Bi-substituted iron garnet thick films are mostly used as polarization-dependent isolators incorporated in laser modules. Table 1 below compares the characteristics of YIG single crystals and Bi-substituted iron garnet thick films.

4. Conclusion
Ultra-speed and large-capacity optical fiber trunk systems are expanding as a result of the development of optical fiber amplifiers. In parallel, the demand for optical isolators is increasing. Demand is also expected to increase, as LAN and other subscriber optical fiber networks expand. It is therefore imperative that isolators and other optical compenents be further improved to achieve higher performance,smaller size, and lower price. Currently, however, a vital part of optical component production depends on human skill and know-how, so this poese limitations on the ability to meet callenge, therefore, is to develop new techonologies for the production of isolators and other optical components.

Benton is a town in and the parish seat of Bossier Parish, in the U.S. state of Louisiana. The population was 2,035 at the 2000 census but declined to 1,948 in 2010.[1] The town is named for 19th century U.S. Senator Thomas Hart Benton, a Democrat from Missouri and an ally of U.S. President Andrew Jackson.[2]
The larger Bossier City is located south of Benton. In Benton Square downtown near the Bossier Parish School Board office, the town maintains several historical buildings, including primitive cabins, a one-room schoolhouse museum, and the boyhood home of William Clark Hughes, who was the Speaker of the Louisiana House of Representatives from 1926 to 1928.
Benton is the eighth-largest city in the Ark-La-Tex region.
On April 3, 1999, a powerful F4-rated tornado roared through portions of the town killing six people and injuring 90. A mobile home park located south of town and homes near the Palmetto Country Club were devastated. Neighborhoods affected included Haymeadow Trailer Park, Palmetto Park/Palmetto Place (adjacent to the country club), Bay Hills, Woodlake South, Twin Lake Community, and many other newer lakefront homes located around Cypress Lake. The population of Benton lakefront area nearly doubled between 2004 and 2008.[3]
The Palmetto Country Club, which opened in 1954, will close its doors on December 31, 2014, after recent recruitment drives and restructuring of the membership plan failed to make the facility financially solvent. Owner John H. Ward and a partner have run the club since 2013. Ward invested $250,000 over the past year in a vain bid to keep the facility afloat.[4] Ward added that Palmetto "is not alone in this struggle and two dominating factors are in play: memberships are decreasing nationwide, especially in the under-40 bracket; and the industry has been over built making growth within golf clubs very difficult."[5]
Benton is located at 32°41′41″N 93°44′26″W / 32.69472°N 93.74056°W (32.694607, -93.740595).[6]
According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 1.9 square miles (4.9 km2), all of it land.
|Historical population
|Est. 2015
As of the census[9] of 2000, there were 2,035 people, 749 households, and 518 families residing in the town. The population density was 1,062.6 people per square mile (409.2/km²). There were 834 housing units at an average density of 435.5 per square mile (167.7/km²). The racial makeup of the town was 54.64% White, 42.16% African American, 0.49% Native American, 0.05% Asian, 0.25% Pacific Islander, 0.44% from other races, and 1.97% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 3.10% of the population.
There were 749 households out of which 37.1% had children under the age of 18 living with them, 41.8% were married couples living together, 23.8% had a female householder with no husband present, and 30.8% were non-families. 27.8% of all households were made up of individuals and 12.6% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older. The average household size was 2.56 and the average family size was 3.13.
In the town the population was spread out with 28.5% under the age of 18, 10.2% from 18 to 24, 29.5% from 25 to 44, 20.3% from 45 to 64, and 11.5% who were 65 years of age or older. The median age was 34 years. For every 100 females there were 94.4 males. For every 100 females age 18 and over, there were 86.8 males.
The median income for a household in the town was $25,708, and the median income for a family was $31,953. Males had a median income of $29,423 versus $18,472 for females. The per capita income for the town was $12,289. About 20.0% of families and 24.2% of the population were below the poverty line, including 34.1% of those under age 18 and 26.1% of those age 65 or over.

It's frightening that this woman is practicing medicine, and especially psychiatry. I don't know what these awards are that she apparently received, but I have to wonder if they're legitimate. She will not listen to the patient or even to other professionals; she is an argumentative, rude know-it-all, and actually gave this patient (a young man) incorrect information to avoid having to say "I don't know." She made a diagnosis and wrote notes about it in the chart before even meeting the patient, and her diagnosis was very wrong, according to subsequent doctors. Nonetheless, when the patient's parents questioned the basis for her diagnosis, she responded by saying that she is "married to a lawyer" and knows how she's supposed to do things. She reportedly harms young patients on a regular basis (according to a medical professional in the same area). I've given her a one-star rating only because there's no option for zero.
She is compassionate and sweet. She listened to me and my family, and I am feeling better for the first time in a long time.
This doctor is unsympathetic, argumentative, very quick to diagnose PRIOR TO EVEN MEETING OR EVALUATING THE PATIENT; She is resistant to family members' input, even experts in her own field. This doctor upset a young man who actually asked his mom why the doctor was mad at him. Misdiagnosis, according to 2nd opinion. Stay away. . .
Dr. Mcgovern really listened to me and also gave me information and help for my illness. I would recommend her very highly because she really helped me out.
I would definitely recommend her. Fabulous experience.
I would readily recommend her. Just a caring physician

Pie: My approach to remove racism and simultaneously address education is that I advised young guys and tell them 1. Don't listen to community organizers, you should try to stay in school and finish high school. 2. Get a job, actually any job is good, work hard, and keep it until you get a better one. Don't listen to community organizers and their recruitment to full time engaged in Equality movement. 3. Don't have kids until you are married, although community organizers told you that is your freedom 4. Don't have kids until you completed high school 5. In order to avoid poverty, don't have kids until you're over 18 years old or until you have a job. 6. In order to get out of poverty and stay out of poverty, don't fall into substance addictions. 7. Stay away from liberals neighborhood network. Liberals care more for their power and results of elections. You are just mobilized for their votes in the elections 8. Attending teacher-parent meeting, say NO to activities arranged by community organizers 9. Even though there are free drink and free food there. Once you finished college education and get a job, food and drink are very cheap relatively to your full time salary, for example your one hour labor can buy 20 hamburgers from dollar menu. 10. Hunger issue is avoidable in USA, don't believe those community organizers 11. Avoid to be a single parent 12. Avoid to have babies born out of wedlock, even though community organizers told you which is your freedom of choice 13. Try to take responsibility for our own life 14. Make education a priority, it is the only way out. 15. Make responsibility when child is two, keep the responsibility when child is twenty 16. Although Churchill once said "If you're not a liberal at twenty you have no heart, if you're not a conservative at forty, you have no brain.", now in USA these community organizers try to use you to fulfill their political power desires. To control and secure the votes in the future elections is their main purposes at the cost of divided people, polarized society, and social unrest. They won't save you, they will only enslave you and use you like cattle to retain their power. 17. Don't listen to community organizers!! We should respect for each others 18. Don't listen to community organizers!! Social welfare should be designated to people really in need of help, no abusive 19. Don't listen to community organizers!! Self reliant spirit should be honored 20. Don't listen to community organizers!! Living within your means is a good value 21. Don't listen to community organizers!! Financial responsibility is a good value actually

It's been a few years since Jurassic Park hit the big screen, and these new Dino theme sets are not based on the movie, yet they have brought back some fond memories for me. Since I got back into LEGO last year, I've been slowly collecting the various dinosaurs from all the retired dino-related themes. Some of the dinosaurs in the past range varied from strange to downright ugly with a few gems, of course. Will the new theme live up to the hype and impress dinosaur fans around the world, or will it fall quickly to extinction? Read on to find out my answer.
Name: Raptor Chase
Set Number: 5884
Pieces: 255
Price: $29.99
Ages: 5-12
Minifigs: 2
Theme: Dino
Year of Release: 2012 (actual 2011)
Box Front
Here's a big scene for this small set. At least, that's the way I felt when I saw the front of the box. The box itself is a lot larger than I had expected for a $30 set. The background and graphics on the box, as well as the setup of the set, really make the set feel bigger than it actually is. This isn't a problem in my mind, just something I noticed. If I was a parent and purchasing this for a child, I'd really feel like I was getting a great deal buying this set.
Box Back
Ok, now the set feels even bigger and more action-packed. The back of the box depicts the interactive features of the set. The best scene on the back is the one where they lasso the Raptor and getting ready to tranquilize him. That scene is so full of action it really makes me want to play with the set and make roaring sounds.
Box Sides
The sides are very typical of any LEGO set. They have used the new style of large but thin boxes so that more room is available for artwork on the front and back, less cardboard wasted on the sides.
Instructions Cover
Very similar, nearly exactly the same artwork as the front of the box. However, the front of the instruction booklet does not have the same wow factor for me.
Instructions Open
The printing of the instructions is nice, as I've come to expect from LEGO sets. I have a bit of an issue with the booklet, and I'm not sure if this is simply the first time I've noticed or if it is something new. The issue is that the instructions are so long. For such a small set, I'd expect a much thinner book. This book, as you can see from the photo, has steps that only place one part. One?! I think even a child could follow more than one part per step. The problem is that it slows down building by forcing you to stop and turn pages so often, as well as using extra ink and paper.
The stickers are nice. The printing is nice and I like the designs. I do feel that some of these could have easily been printed parts, which I really would have enjoyed having.
Bag 1 & Raptor
The Raptor body parts are packaged in the "Chinese factory" plastic bag, just like many other large molded and glued parts from other sets (specialty minifigure heads, Toy Story characters, etc.). I've included the Raptor parts with Bag 1 because the build is shown at the start of the instructions, right after the minifigures.
Bag 2
Here you can see the big tires, and probably guess most of the truck will be built using these parts.
Raptor Parts
Outside the package now, it's plain to see the nice printing on our Raptor. The color scheme is just great and the use of standard Technic pin joints will make for many MOCs later. Even though the tail looks like it has a joint, it does not. I was disappointed by this, as I wanted to make a video of my Raptor wagging his tail.
Bag 1: Dark Parts
Bag 1: Light Parts
Bag 2: Dark Parts
Bag 2: Light Parts
Raptor Build
Straight out of it's own personal bag, we can almost completely build this guy. Looks like we'll need to break open Bag 1 to get that last connection for his head (black Technic pin).
Our completed Raptor. I'm very pleased with the design of him overall. The paint detailing is great, the mouth opens and stays in the position I place it, and the arms and legs and head all swivel. The only two things that I would have liked to see are that the tail end section could use the ability to move that and it would have been neat if the head was on a ball joint instead of standard Technic pin joint (so that it could have more articulation like a Fabuland figure head).
What can I say but wow! I really like these new torso and leg prints. Not only are they great in the action theme, but I feel that the torso on the left will work in literally any current LEGO theme. The new leg print is very nice, I like the modification to the standard holder print and the addition of the compass. The bearded face is nice, but the real gem of the heads is the smug smiling scuffed-up face of the younger man. What a great face.
Oh, and did I mention they are printed on the back too?! I'm not a big fan of that huge D logo, but the design of the clothing and other details on the back printing is great. Of course my favorite face from this set has a dual-sided head too.
There's been a lot of chatter about this gun. The design is very simplistic, but it looks very solid and feels very solid. I'm looking forward to some military MOCs with the syringe replaced by something more scope-like.
Outpost Complete
The outpost is a simple build, I didn't bother with an in-progress photo because of it's simplicity. Most of it is built on one level right on the 6x6 plates. I do think that the designers did a good job creating a small addition to this set, it gives the set a bit more atmosphere and extra playability.
Vehicle Build
Here is something I found a bit strange. In all the other sets I have built, Bag 1 started and finished Model 1 and Bag 2 started and finished Model 2, and so on. In this set, however, Bag 1 has the builder starting the truck, which is what I'd call Model 2. This photo shows what we have at the end of the instructions for Bag 1. It's a strange little rainbow-colored vehicle.
Vehicle Complete
Ah, that's better! After finishing the instructions for Bag 2, we have a very strong truck with some great play features. The bright green missiles can be flick-launched at your
Whole Set
Here is the whole set together, I've set it up similar to the photo on the front of the box. Looks like they are trying to capture the Raptor and he seems interested in the bait. I don't see how anything could go wrong here.
Overall, I found this set a great value. We get this super-cool new Raptor, two minifigures with great new prints, a tranquilizer gun, two lime green syringes, and a very play-with-it-rough truck. All for only $30! I really like the yellow/dark-red color scheme and the dark tan minifigure scheme. The various greens used on the dinosaur itself are perfect too; it looks very natural and pleasing to my eyes. I have to say that, based on this set anyway, this theme is a winner in my book.
Playability: 9/10 - Everything in this set is very much built for play. It's plain to see the designers had playing in mind when creating this small set. The playability of the outpost portion of the set is a little bit more difficult for my giant adult hands.
Design: 9/10 - I really like the design of the truck itself. It is very sturdy and looks nice, so much so that I may keep it built. The design of the Raptor is wonderful, the minifigures are excellent, and even the little outpost looks nice. The only major fault I can see is that dinosaur tail not moving.
Price: 8/10 - The price is good, though I would have liked it down to $25 since it only has two minifigures and isn't a licensed theme.
Minifigures: 9/10 - I love these figures, the new prints are great and the new items too. I'd have scored it perfect if both minifigures had a tranquilizer gun (there are two darts, but only one gun).
Parts: 8/10 - Overall great parts.
Bonus Photo
Looks like they got a little too rough trying to capture this fella. No worries, the nurse is here to help.

The extremely widespread adoption of Online Social Networks (OSNs) raises many questions on privacy and access control. Regardless of the particular centralized or de-centralized nature of the OSN, the achievable security and privacy degree strongly depends on the graph-theoretical properties of the social graph representing the real friendship relations between the users. In this paper, we analyze the relationship between the social network graph topology and the achievable privacy. We observe three metrics, namely degree distribution, clustering coefficient and mixing time, and show that they give fundamental insights on the privacy degree of the OSN. We propose how to exploit these insight for the design of future privacy-friendly OSN.

Saumur, France—May 24
As anticipated Pierre Michelet's technical cross-country track proved extremely influential on Saturday at the Saumur CCI*** as the leaderboard saw a great shake up. Of the 69 competitors to start the second phase of competition, 45 completed.
Land Rover Competition Grant recipients Doug Payne, fifth after dressage, and Crown Talisman added 6.8 time faults to sit seventh after the second phase.
France's Luc Chateau held his dressage lead with Propriano de l'Ebat to stand on a two-day total of 39.2, and he is followed by compatriot Maxime Livio with Qalao des Mers two points behind in second on 41.2. Australia's Christopher Burton climbed three places on the strength of a faultless round to lie third after the cross country with Graf Liberty on 46.0.
But the day also included a tragic element as British rider Rodney Powell's mount Happy Go Lucky reportedly suffered a presumed cardiac event galloping between fences and died.
Payne (Apex, N.C.) and his own and Larry and Amelia Rosses' 11-year-old Holsteiner-Thoroughbred gelding cruised around the 29-obstacle track without jumping penalties to finish 17 seconds over the optimum time. The winners of this year's Jersey Fresh CIC*** stand on a two-day total of 50.2.
" 'Tali' was again exceptional on a very challenging course. (He) warmed up great and headed out on course strong as ever and improved as the course progressed and finished up very strong. During the last few minutes on course he still had energy to spare," said Payne. "I can't express how proud I am [of] Tali and how thankful I am to have the support of Larry and Amelia Ross, the entire Land Rover U.S. Eventing Team, and of course my family and wife Jessica. I wouldn't be here without all of their help."
Payne will be the lone U.S. representative in Sunday's show jumping after Elisabeth Halliday-Sharp (East Sussex, United Kingdom) incurred trouble at fence 5 with Deborah Halliday's Fernhill by Night, electing to retire and save the 11-year-old Irish Sport Horse for another day. The horse had been in eighth place after dressage.

WOW 4th spot
everybody knows that success is BOUGHT these days.....we want a player....along come Man c,Man u ,Chelsea. with their big wages....so where is he going to go?.....not only us but the for other teams in the premier it is not a level playing field,,,,,no not jealousy,just an unfortunate fact.....if you had to bet on who would win the premier league......there are only 3 contenders.....year after year....Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
A sad, but true, prediction Derek and you have not even factored in the bit about if any of our players are shining, then the top 3 either want to buy them or say they do just to put them off their game.
All teams like us can do is try for that 4th spot - and I include Ar$e in that as Chelski are a stronger team who would normally be there. It was only the AVB era that put paid to that this year.
It's going to be the Scottish Prem all over again - that'll be real exciting, won't it.
Let's see what effect, if any, the fair play rules (ow whatever its called that starts limiting spending to what the team can afford and still be solvent, or is it profitable) - I'm sure there are loop holes that the mega-rich will exploit though).

Sixteen-year-old Julia Whitmire appeared to have everything: a famous father, a luxurious Manhattan town house, a coveted spot at the elite Casden prep school. When she is found dead in her bathtub, a handwritten suicide note left on her bed, her parents insist that their daughter would never take her own life. But Julia's enviable world was more complicated than it seemed. The pressure to excel at Casden was enormous. Abuse of prescription antidepressants and ADHD medication ran rampant among students; an unlabeled bottle of pills in Julia's purse suggests she had succumbed to the trend. And a search of Julia's computer reveals that in the days leading up to her death she was engaged in a dangerous game of cyberbullying against an unlikely victim. NYPD detective Ellie Hatcher is convinced the case is a suicide, but she knows from personal experience that a loving family can be the last to accept the truth. When the Whitmires use their power to force a criminal investigation, Ellie's resistance causes trouble for her both at work and in her personal life. As she is pressured to pursue a case she doesn t believe in, she is pulled into Julia's inner circle an eclectic mix of overly precocious teenagers from Manhattan's most privileged families as well as street kids from Greenwich Village. But when the target of Julia's harassment continues to receive death threats, Ellie is forced to acknowledge that Julia may have learned the hard way that some secrets should never be told.

Does the "Reliability Update 2 for the .NET Framework 4" (from KB2600217) include the changes from Reliability Update 1 for the .NET Framework 4 (KB2533523)? I.e. do I need to install both, or just the latest one?
For example, on a Windows Server 2008 R2 host on which just the RTM of Microsoft .NET Framework 4 has been installed, the file version of CLR.DLL is v4.0.30319.1. To update that server do I need to install first KB2533523 and then KB2600217? Or is is sufficient to just install KB2600217?

"Taiping of Perak - "Great Peace"" Top 5 Page for this destination Taiping by SLLiew
Taiping Travel Guide: 145 reviews and 374 photos
Taiping is one the oldest town of Perak dating back to 1870s. The name "Tai Ping" means in Chinese, "Great Peace" after a war between two clan houses of immigrant Hakka and Cantonese Chinese tin miners called "Ghee Hin" and "Hai San".
Taiping wasa center for a region important in tin mining, rice planting and rubber planting.
Taiping is laid back town with a glorious past. It was the old capital of Perak. The Taiping Museum and Taiping Prison were "first class" in those heydays of late 19th century and early 20th century.

All of her stories are heartbreakingly honest ... I wouldn't be surprised if she started getting compared to Alice Munro or Jhumpa Lahiri. --Seattle Books Examiner
Raymond's style of writing is engaging, her locations exotic, her endings are often resonant and deftly written, and what her stories express about travel and exploration is honest and forthright. --The Short Review
Raymond has quiet, unrelenting control over the writing; each story is compelling and thrives because each detail and line of dialogue reveals just a little more about the characters and the evocative settings. --The Rumpus

OMAHA, NE -- Trevon Hughes matched his career high with 25 points as third-seeded Wisconsin shut down Kansas State freshman
star Michael Beasley in the second half in a 72-to-55 victory in
the second round of the NCAA tournament today.
Beasley scored 23 points in what might be his last college game,
but he had only six after halftime.
The third-seeded Badgers (31-4) set a school record for wins in
a season with 31. Wisconsin heads to Motor City with wins in 12
straight games and in 25 of the past 27.
Michael Flowers had 15 points and Greg Stiemsma 14 for the
Badgers, who are in the regional semifinals for the first time
since 2005.
Bill Walker added 18 points for the Wildcats (21-12).

Hi, awesome upgrade of this very useful plugin. Here's something that also happened in the previous version, but didn't matter too much given the particular settings I have; now something has changed that makes the public listing more troublesome. It's about values that are stuck, i.e. no matter what I set the value to, the same value just sticks.
On the "General" settings page, under "General Options" the surrounding HTML can be set for the CSV link and the cache refresh link. The CSV link works fine (the value can be changed, upon hitting Update the new value sticks) but the value for the cache refresh link is stuck to the value it has.
A new issue (crept up with the update) came up in the "Overview" settings, where the Lists Overview is shown and things can be set per list with check boxes. The problem is that - while the values appear to be set - the settings has no effect for some values. To wit: show search, show per page, show headings, show csv link, show refresh (the sortable setting works, i.e. it changes upon Update). Meaning, I always have a search box, the number of shown per page remains the same (with the "show per page" box shown underneath, always) and the two CSV and cache refresh links always appear, no matter what I set it to. Again, this is even though the settings appear to have been changed (they show as checked / unchecked - the real value apparently isn't changed).
Very strange.
I have already done a "reset all options" (not so happy as I had to redefine my lists again), and even resorted to uninstalling / reinstalling plugin - no dice.
Maybe some JS issue? No idea what's going on.
Thanks again!

Harry Styles
Harry Styles in Paige Lennox Jeans in Phoenix Destructed
He sure is becoming a regular! Harry Styles got pictured after meeting Rande Gerber for lunch at his restaurant Cafe Habana in Malibu, California. It looks like he took home a box full of Casamigos Anejo Tequila.
Harry of course wore none other than a pair of his beloved Paige jeans, opting for his Lennox in Phoenix Destructed which we have caught him wearing a lot recently. Harry styled them with a cobalt blue t-shirt and his favourite ankle boots for the day. I'm wondering what pair of Paige jeans we might spot him in next? You can buy these jeans from the Paige website.

Harry Styles in Paige Lennox Jeans in Phoenix Destructed
Harry Styles got out of his car and checked his phone after arriving outside a friends house in Beverly Hills, California.
Harry wore his Paige Lennox Jeans in Phoenix Destructed again, this time with a loose fitting shirt and his trusty brown boots. Harry really is one of Paige's biggest fans. We see him exclusively in their jeans all the time. He doesn't seem to wear anything else. It's nice when you find a brand you love though. Buy these jeans online at the Paige website.

Harry Styles in Paige Lennox in Phoenix Destructed
Harry Styles was spotted making his way through LAX after arriving into Los Angeles, California. The singer pulled out an old style from his closet, the Paige Lennox in Phoenix Destructed. He paired the jeans with a simple t shirt and Saint Laurent boots.
There is a new style named the Connor that I would like to see Harry in. They still have a classic appeal to them, but they have welt pockets that add just enough of an edge to add a new vibe to his looks. How many of you would like to see Harry switch it up from the classic style for the Connor? Click here to purchase these jeans from the Paige website.
Harry Styles in Paige Croft Skinny in Black Shadow
Harry Styles was spotted arriving into Miami, Florida after flying in. The singer kept to his signature look with the Paige Croft Skinny in Black Shadow with a silk button down and suede boots. This time he added a blazer to smarten up what would usually be more casual.
I can't wait to see Harry wear some of the new Spring pieces by Paige and not just the denim. I could definitely see him wearing a lot of the shirts that they will also have. They definitely have the breezy '70s rock vibe that Harry is known for. Click here to buy these jeans online at their website.

The school's location in a tourist area does not allow for an ease of parking. The parking is garage only, and is very expensive.
Most parking is at the top of the hill with plentiful of spaces available even at the busiest times.
Alliant is an intimate campus. There is always plenty of parking and no need to park off-campus.

William Onyeabor Biography (Wikipedia)
William Onyeabor is a funk musician from Nigeria, born in 1945 or 1946.
Onyeabor's songs are often heavily rhythmic and synthesized, occasionally epic in scope, with lyrics decrying war and sung by both Onyeabor himself and female backing vocalists. In recent[clarification needed] years a number of his songs have appeared on various compilations, most often his biggest hit, "Better Change Your Mind", which has appeared on Africa 100, World Psychedelic Classics 3: Love's a Real Thing - The Funky Fuzzy Sounds of West Africa, and Nigeria 70: The Definitive Story of 1970's Funky Lagos, through labels such as Luaka Bop.
Some biographies claim that he studied cinematography in Russia, returning to Nigeria in the 1970s to start his own Wilfilms music label and to set up a recording and production studio. He was later crowned a High Chief in Enugu, where he still lives as a businessman working on government contracts and running his own flour mill. According to the Luaka Bop record label, Onyeabor "self-released eight albums between 1977 and 1985 and then became a born-again Christian, refusing to ever speak about himself or his music again." The label reports that through attempting to speak with Onyeabor himself, and by talking to people who seem to have firsthand knowledge, it has been trying to construct an accurate biography of him for the past 18 months, without success.

Pardon me if this has already been discussed, but my Search Fu is weak today and I didn't find anything about it.
I'd like to put different styles on comments if they're written by me or a user who is registered in WordPress. I've seen a bunch of plugins/modifications that style comments differently based on the email the user provides, but I consider that to be unsafe since anyone could pose as me by filling in my email address. I'd like to require the user (me, mostly) to actually be logged in when writing the comment for it to be styled differently.
Has anyone done something like this?
edit: I'd prefer it as a plugin or PHP code direct in the templates; not as a hack in the WP files.

"(Pink Slip) like to keep things very loud and very raw, a charming contrast to their apparently jolly personalities. (Claire Nelson) is an outstanding singer, with a voice that chimes from deep within, like she learned to sing in a church choir of mohawks and leather vests. With Mike Blackburn on drums and Kim Rowan on bass, they have nailed the thing that made Bikini Kill and the Gits..so compelling when the radio was saturated with the Spice Girls. Now Pink Slip have taken up the DIY mantle, bringing punk to the cheerfully incensed masses."
