Top 10: Sex On The Beach BeachesSun, sand and surf are the staples of a sun-drenched summer, but they don't make up the best part of a beach-side holiday. Sex on a beach is the ultimate fantasy for most couples looking to get away from it all and get off at the same time; but those who engage in sandy shenanigans risk getting caught, getting dirty and getting crabs (the crustacean kind) instead of an orgasm.
Seclusion, cleanliness and the romance factor should all be taken into consideration before you get sand in places you never knew you had. To celebrate the impending arrival of summer, AskMen lends adventurous couples a helping hand by tracking down the top 10 best beaches to "do it" on.

Console gamers will have many, many amazing games to play
this holiday season, but PC gamers will have an exclusive title to make the
console crowd jealous. This game, of course, is Crysis – a title that has already wowed anyone who has seen video
of screenshots of the gorgeous graphics.
Publisher Electronic Arts and developer Crytek have announced
that Crysis will be hitting retail
stores in North America and Europe on November 16, 2007.
"Crytek is constantly striving to push the boundaries of
both game design and technology, while maintaining quality at the highest bar,"
said Cevat Yerli, CEO and President of Crytek. "We're thankful to our fans for
their support and patience, and we're excited to bring them Crysis this year. It's going to be worth
the wait."
Official system requirements and recommended specs
have yet to be announced, but it is estimated that the lowest-spec PC that will run
Crysis will consist of:
CPU: Athlon 64
3000+/Intel 2.8ghz
Graphics: Nvidia 6600/X800GTO (SM
RAM: 768Mb/1Gb on Windows
Internet: 256k+
Optical Drive:
Software: DX9.0c with Windows XP
With the recommended system expected to be:
CPU: Dual-core CPU
(Athlon X2/Pentium D)
Graphics: Nvidia 7800GTX/ATI X1800XT
(SM 3.0) or DX10 equivalent
Internet: 512k+ (128k+
Optical Drive: DVD
DX10 with Windows
quote: Giveing [sic] people hope when ther [sic] is none.
quote: by caboosemoose on August 3, 2007 at 1:13 PMHate to rain on your parade, but the X1950 isnt going to rock your world with Crysis.
quote: Although Crysis won't be the first game to carry with it DirectX 10 visuals, it could be the killer app to entice gamers to make the jump to Windows Vista. Unlike the other DirectX 10 titles Halo 2 and Shadowrun, Crysis will also run with DirectX 9 on Windows XP.
quote: I expect Crysis to be well capable of bringing something like an 8800 GTX to its knees without even completely maxing out the settings.
quote: This game is going to revolutionize the FPS genre
quote: I just may dump $800 or so into the PC this fall to ready myself for these games.
quote: CPU: Dual-core CPU (Athlon X2/Pentium D)Graphics: Nvidia 7800GTX/ATI X1800XT (SM 3.0) or DX10 equivalentRAM: 1.5GbHDD: 6GBInternet: 512k+ (128k+ upstream)Optical Drive: DVDSoftware: DX10 with Windows Vista
quote: This is a bit absurd. The software says DX10 Vista and the graphics say 7800GTX/x1800XT or DX10 equivalent. What does that mean? There is no DX10 equivalent of those cards. And you can use those cards to play anything DX10.

Former Kentucky point guard Brandon Knight has been traded to the Milwaukee Bucks in exchange for Brandon Jennings. Knight, center Slava Kravtsov and forward Khris Middleton are on their way to the Bucks as the Pistons sign Jennings to a 3-year/$24 million deal. The trades for Knight and Jennings would be the first move for each player as a professional. Jennings was drafted 10th overall in 2010 to Milwaukee, and Knight was drafted 8th overall by Detroit in 2011. The Pistons felt the need to acquire Jennings because he is a scoring point guard. Last season for the Bucks, Jennings averaged 17.5 points per game, as well as 6.5 assists and 3.1 rebounds. If you look at a comparison between the percentages of Knight and Jennings, you may find the trade to be a little ironic for the Pistons. Jennings is supposed to fill the need for a "scoring point guard" when the guy the Pistons traded away shoots a better percentage. Jennings only shoots a 39.4 career field goal percentage. On the flip side, Knight averages less points (13.0) and less assists (4.0) than Jennings, but shoots 40.7% from the field. I can't help but wonder if Knight will make the Pistons regret their decision. At his age, Knight is one of the smartest point guards in the league. You can only write so many superlatives about the young man, and yet he probably deserves more. I can see Brandon Jennings being a better overall athlete than Knight, but the scoring really isn't that much difference. Knight has been in the league for 2 years, compared to Jennings being a pro for 3 years in the U.S., and for 1 year in Europe. In the long run, this trade may not be as sure fire as Detroit hopes it to be.

Hey there,
maybe this question is a bit obscure, but this is the third time it would be useful - might you implement the possibility to use PHP in the title?
Example: I am using the qTranslate Plugin for a Multilanguage blog - with putting
if(qtrans_getLanguage()=="de") { ?>
Das deutsche Widget.
<?php } else { ?>
The english Widget.
<?php } ?>
inside the content it is possible to create multilingual widgets without even touching the theme. But with
if(qtrans_getLanguage()=="de") { ?>
Der deutsche Titel
<?php } else { ?>
The english title
<?php } ?>
in the title-field it would be possible to fully internationalize Widgets without touching the theme.

Stalled, Video-Chat Service TokBox Shifts to Target Businesses
In May 2009, Ian Small, formerly a senior vice president at database maker MarkLogic Corp., became the third chief executive officer in two years of ailing video-chat service TokBox. Sequoia Capital and Bain Capital Ventures hired Small to try to get a return on the $14 million they and angel investors had invested since the startup's launch in May 2007.
Unlike Skype, its biggest competitor, TokBox had been offering users video chat without requiring them to download software. But after two years, TokBox had stalled at an average of about 180,000 unique users a month, according to Web traffic analysis firm Compete, and Small won't say how many users it has now. (By comparison, Skype says it has 23 million users online at peak times during the day.) Convinced TokBox could grow by shifting focus to provide its technology to businesses that wanted to integrate video on their websites, Small in mid-November launched OpenTok, a free service for embedding video-chat rooms.
The 20-employee San Francisco business still offers video chat through its website for consumers and small businesses, but is no longer trying to compete with the dozen or so companies offering such services, Small says. Rather than fight for individuals, TokBox is focusing on OpenTok, hoping to eventually build a profitable business through a large network of partner websites. "From that perspective, [TokBox] seems to be different," says Irene Berlinsky, an analyst for technology research firm IDC.
Investors DAG Ventures, Bain, and Sequoia gave Small a vote of confidence when he introduced OpenTok, investing an additional $12 million, and at least five companies are testing the service, including speed-dating site WinkVid and live poker portal PokerView. Small spoke recently with Bloomberg.com contributor Antone Gonsalves about the challenges of building a business in online video chat and how he plans to make TokBox profitable. Edited excerpts of their conversation follow.
Antone Gonsalves: Why did TokBox fail to attract enough consumers to build a business around online video chat?
Ian Small: Consumers are fairly fickle. There's a fairly impressive acquisition rate [initially] that any of the sites in this space have. People try it, they use it for a while, then they stop using it. There's a fair amount of churn in the consumer base. One of the reasons for that is when you are in the video-chat business, there is no asset that gets created that stays around. If you think about Facebook, the thing that keeps bringing people back is the growing base of content. If you look at Skype's acquisition rate, it should have half the planet by now. They have the same churn issues as everybody else, because essentially it's a telephone. You use it for the time frame you want to use it for and when you're done, you may not want to use it again.
Q: So how does OpenTok fit within the online video-chat ecosystem?
A: What we've done with OpenTok is to take what we already know and come up with a completely new and different angle that literally no one else is providing at the moment. People are able to engage with each other, face-to-face, around the content they care most about, where that content is [on a website]. Two-way video and multi-way video is very much one of the next frontiers of the Web. It's one of the few things online that today is not actually integrated into the Web. And that creates a huge opportunity for us. Videoconferencing is something you go to. It doesn't happen where you are. It exists in its own silo. OpenTok is trying to break down the walls of that silo, so video engagements are wherever you want [them] on the Web.
Q: Can you give examples of how OpenTok would work?
A: The model is completely up to the site that is implementing OpenTok. If you were a dating site, you'd be setting things up so you were only chatting with potential matches based on your profile criteria. If you were a poker site, the people you would be chatting with would be the people you were in the poker game with. But perhaps there'd be an audience watching you, but you wouldn't be chatting with them, they'd just be watching you and your four or five or eight other players. So it's really all about the business rules of the site and how it makes sense to integrate chat for that particular activity.
Q: How do you see OpenTok eventually making money? Will it be through advertising, licensing the technology, or a combination of both?
A: We identified two possibilities. If the activity is more toward the media, entertainment, and gaming side of the equation, then an advertising model is extremely viable. After all, we are delivering rich media and we have an excellent infrastructure for being able to deliver rich media advertising, so that's a very natural model. But as we were out talking to companies, we also discovered that there were a whole set of features they were interested in that for us are possibilities for providing premium services, whether that's around large audience sizes [or] forms of security or encryption.
Q: As a consumer service, TokBox was not built with the security mechanisms that businesses would demand, such as encryption of the video stream. Is OpenTok ready for the corporate market?
A: As business-oriented sites, for instance in the health-care field, start to adopt this platform, there's going to be a demand for us to improve the robustness with which we protect the video signals. That's something we have to work on. Our focus at TokBox and in the initial going with OpenTok is very much in the consumer space where security is less of a premium than it would be in the business space. As we see adoption in [the latter], security will become something we're more focused on and it's definitely something that's on our road map.

The town was once a Barangay of the capital town, Malaybalay. It was named after a Banglas tree, endemic tree species that inhabit and growing abundantly and distinctively only on this portion of the upper Pulangui. Banglas is hardwood that usually grows in the rocky portion of the Bobunawan riverbanks. Kabanglasan literally means a place that has plenty of Banglas.
Cabanglasan was created as a separate municipality from Malaybalay on August 13, 1979 by virtue of Republic Act 6489.
The movement for the separation of Cabanglasan from his mother municipality (Malaybalay) began in the early 1960s when the people of Pulangi region petitioned for the secession. This prompted the passage of House Bill No. 2789 in Congress by the then Congressman Cesar M. Fortich. The bill was enacted into law without executive approval under Republic Act 6489 but its implementation was delayed due to the declaration of martial law.
Due to the persistence of the residents as spearheaded by Datu Maliwanag(Saturnino P.Linsagan), former President Ferdinand E.Marcos referred the matter to the mother municipality, Malaybalay. A plebiscite was then held wherein the majority voted for the implementation of RA 6489. On August 13, 1979, the first set of municipal officials headed by Mayor Saturnino P. Linsagan aka Datu Maliwanag to his tribesmen, took their oath and held their first session.

Cabanglasan was created to become a municipality on August 13, 1979 by virtue of Republic Act 6489. On the following year, 1980, a regular census on population and housing was conducted nationwide, wherein Cabanglasan had an actual population count of 16,843.
In 1990, there was another census of population and housing. Because of the presence of the two logging companies, the T.H. Valderrama and Talakag Timber Incorporated, the population of this town grew to 26,351, an increase of about 9,508 or 56.45%. During those Censal years Barangays Cabulohan, Capinonan and Imbatug had a greater number of population because it was where the logging companies established their plant and housing camps.
In 1995, a mid-decade census on population and housing was made. During that year, Cabanglasan had a population of 29,288 or an increase of 11.15%. However, due to the closure of the two logging companies in 1991, the population of the three barangays mentioned above decreased while the population of other barangays increased. Barangay Poblacion had an increase of 68.2116%. In 1990, its population was only 2,287 but it grew to 3,847 in 1995. This increase was due to the influx of former workers from the logging companies who settled in the neighboring barangays. As a result, the overall population count of the municipality increased at an average growth rate of 2.50%.
Another factor of this population increase is the ongoing progress and development of this municipality, such as road accessibility to the different barangays and sitios, farm modernization, electrification and the coming of small and medium investors to establish their business in the Poblacion. With this positive trend we it can be projected that the increase of population will continue and the coming of investors would provide job opportunities to our people.
Being typically landlocked, the means of transportation for intra-municipal travel is through jeepneys and motorcycles, buses and jeepneys can be availed of for travels going out of the municipality.
Most of the vehicles (82%) are privately owned. About 16 percent are public utility vehicles while only 2% belonged to the government.
The whole stretch of the national highway (21.61 km) is still gravel-paved. Of the 15.065 km municipal road, 4% percent has already been converted to concrete pavement, 9% is gravel-paved, and the rest is still earth-paved. The aggregate length of barangay roads in the municipality has been recorded at 287.409 km. Nearly 41 percent (117.603) of this is gravel-paved, a little over half (56%) of the total length is still unpaved while only less than one percent (1%) has been concreted. It can also be noted that earth-paved roads – especially roads going to the interior sitios are not passable during rainy season.
Bridges link gaps between rivers. For areas which are not regular routes of land transportation but are bounded by rivers, hanging footbridges were constructed.
Postal services of the municipality is being provided by the Bureau of Post which is manned by a Postmaster. Being undermanned the postmaster also served as the municipality's letter carrier.
For telecommunication, the provincial government had installed a single side band radio at the municipality. This is actually part of the Provincial Radio Communication Network. Through this system the municipality is able to reach out to other parts of the province directly or via relay stations. This is being complemented by handheld radios in some barangays which the municipality used for transmitting messages to these areas. Cabanglasan's populace is also kept abreast of recent information which is of regional and/or national significance through two Television channels which signal covered the municipality. These are the ABS-CBN (Channel 2) and GMA (Channel 12). AM and FM Band radio Stations from Malaybalay, Valencia, Cagayan and Davao also reached the municipality. Print media on the other hand only include a local newspaper (Bukidnon Newswatch) which has a weekly circulation.
Water systems[edit]
Springs, rivers and deep wells are the sources of water supply used for both domestic water supply and irrigation needs. Deep wells and springs are commonly used as potable water supply. Local government, congressional initiative, regional and senatorial funds are used to develop these sources. The municipal government's ardent thrust to provide basic services to its constituents can be well manifested by its current pursuit to develop a level III type of water system through funding from the World Bank. The municipal government had entered into a loan agreement with the bank to develop a system that will provide for an individual pipe connection for each household within the barangays of Poblacion and Iba. Data shows that Level I and Level II type of systems are the most prevalent type of water supply in the municipality. Level I water system is currently serving 7.17% of the total households. Likewise, Level II is providing water for 47.39% of all households, while Level III only served 3.62% of the total. The rest (41.82%) still remained un-served by a water supply system
Health services[edit]
The health service in the Municipality of Cabanglasan is catered by the Municipal Health Office (MHO) and one private lying-in clinic. The former handles the public health services and some clinical services while the latter serves most of the clinical cases. The MHO is located at Poblacion and the nine Barangay Health Stations are located in the different barangays. These serve as channels in providing basic health services to the general populace. The office is manned by one Medical Doctor, one Dentist, one DOH-Nurse, four permanent Rural Health Midwives (RHMs), five Job Order RHMs, one Rural Sanitary Inspector (RSI) and one Dental Aid. The health personnel is augmented by 175 Barangay Health Workers (BHW) 38 "hilots" and other health oriented NGOs such as BIDANI, MAP, and the German Rolling Clinic.
Health statistics showed that the four leading causes of morbidity fall under communicable diseases which are preventable in nature but there was a gradual increase of such cases in the past few years. This increase could be attributed to the lack of permanent personnel assigned in far-flung and strategically located barangays. Another contributing factor is the inadequate supply of medicines and medical logistics which are necessary in the implementation of health services and programs. Records from the nutrition program of the municipality revealed the high prevalence rate of malnutrition has gradually decreased. This accomplishment was due to the full support of the Local Government Unit and Department of Health, and the increased awareness of the general populace on proper nutrition.
The total population is 29,288 as of 1995 having a ratio of one policeman per 1,220 inhabitants. The national standard ratio is one policeman per one thousand inhabitants. Therefore, Cabanglasan police force needs 15 Policemen to meet the standard ratio.
Special Force (SF) of the Philippine Army (PA) established four strategic detachment, located at Barangay Poblacion, Freedom, Cananga-an and Jasaan. Each detachment is manned by two regular elements of the SF-PA assisted by their respective CAFGUs (Citizen Armed Forces Geographical Units). Cabanglasan police force is headed by one Police Commission Officer (PCO) as Chief of Police (COP), twenty three Police Non-Commission Officer (PCNO's) with five police community precinct. Each PCP headed by one policeman assisted by their respective Bantay Bayan/CVOs (Civilian Volunteers Organization). The area of responsibility or coverage has one PCP for every three Barangays.
The data on existing schools and facilities are complete which are indicative of the overall picture of the District of Cabanglasan. There are 26 elementary schools within the municipality three schools are within the urban center, while the remaining 23 schools are distributed throughout the rural areas. Each barangay has at least one elementary school with Iba and Poblacion having the biggest area in terms of hectares. All schools have playgrounds, some have clinics but none of them has a laboratory, shop or library.
The Municipality of Cabanglasan has two secondary schools, one is a public school and one is a private secondary school, namely: Cabulohan-Paradise Nationalized Agricultural High School and Fr. Leoni Memorial School. A comparative analysis of enrolment showed that the public school has the highest enrolment with a total of 915 students for the current year, while on the private school has maintained its enrolment for the last five years with 587 students.

Was Ist Silvia? Englanderin Oder Deutsche? Restoring the Orignial English Texts to Songs Schubert Set in Translation, a Lecture Recital, Together with Three Recitals of Selected Works of H. Purcell, G. F. Handel, W. A. Mozart, F. Schubert, J. Brahms, H. Wolf, F. Poulenc and Others
Date: May 1995
Creator: Bolthouse, Colleen R.
Description: Because of the lack of information concerning the success or failure of Schubert's bilingual edition and concerning the relationship between the English texts and Schubert's settings, most performers take the conservative route of performing both the songs from Lady of the Lake and the rest of Schubert's English song repertoire only with the German translations. Because of the desirability of performing this repertoire in English for English-speaking audiences, this study examines all of the English songs of Schubert to determine whether the original poems can be successfully substituted for the German translations. Editions of the settings that can be effectively performed with the English texts are included in the appendix, in order to make available editions which reflect Schubert's ambition to make his songs easily accessible to non-German-speaking audiences.

Kurt Weill: a Song Composer in Wartime with Three Recitals of Selected Works of Mozart, Strauss, Bach, Schubert, and Others
Date: August 1993
Creator: Wyatt, Susan Beth Masters
Description: During World War II the composer Kurt Weill was in America writing for the Broadway stage. On August 27, 1943, he became an American citizen and was eager to volunteer his talent to the American war effort. Among his many wartime musical contributions are fourteen songs, all with war-related texts, which can be divided into three distinct groups: the American propaganda songs (8), the German propaganda songs (2), and the Walt Whitman songs (4). It is the purpose of this paper to present a comparative analysis of a representative group of these war songs (two from each group) in order to illustrate Weill's musical versatility. The American propaganda songs were written in a purely popular song style; sung by Broadway actors; directed toward an American audience; with texts by the Broadway lyricist Oscar Hammerstein II and the Hollywood movie executive Howard Dietz. The German propaganda songs were written in a cabaret song style; sung in German by Weill's wife, Lotte Lenya; directed toward a German audience behind enemy lines; with texts by the German playwright Bertolt Brecht and the German cabaret writer Walter Mehring. The Four Walt Whitman Songs were written in a classical art song style; sung by classically ...

Art Song by Turn-of-the-Century Female Composers
Date: December 1993
Creator: Click, Sarah, D.
Description: Whereas conditions have existed for many centuries which served to exclude or marginalize female participation in music, many women have written compositions of musical worth sufficient to justify their contemporary performance. Although most women composers wrote works more fitting for the "salon" than for the concert hall at the turn of the century, Boulanger and Mahler are representative of the few women composers whose complex approach to art song fell within the mainstream of the genre. Many of their accompaniments attain a level of technical difficulty not previously found in women composers' writing. They offer an interesting comparison between nationalities and styles in that they both favored Symbolist texts. However, each represents a different side of the coin in her musical interpretation of Symbolism: Boulanger, Impressionism, and Mahler, Expressionism. In addition, even though their styles involve opposite musical expressions, they both show a strong influence of Wagner in their writing. This study includes background on turn-of-the-century music and musicians encompassing the role of art song among women composers. Symbolism is addressed as it applies to the poets selected by the composers, followed by information regarding the specific musical representation of Symbolist texts in the composers' art songs.

A Stylistic Evaluation of Charles Valentin Alkan's Piano Music: a Lecture Recital, together with Three Recitals of Selected Works of J.S. Bach, Beethoven, Brahms, Liszt, Schumann, and Villa-Lobos
Date: December 1988
Creator: Ahn, Joel, 1957-
Description: Charles Valentin Alkan (1813-1888), one of the great genii in music history, was widely misunderstood by his contemporaries because of his highly idiosyncratic ideas. From the perspective of the late twentieth century, his innovations can be better understood, and his music is now gaining wider appreciation. Yet, today many musicians still do not know even his name, much less his achievements. The year 1988 marks the one hundredth year since his death. In commemoration of this centennial anniversary, this thesis is presented as a plea for a greater awareness of the achievements of this important figure in the development of piano music.

McKINNEY, Texas (AP) - A fire at a McKinney business that provides animals to pet stores left hundreds of small creatures dead or dying.
Fire department crews worked Wednesday to help determine which animals survived the overnight blaze at the IQW pet supplier.
Business owner Michael Smith says some of his animals died from excessive heat, while others may have drowned when the sprinkler system came on and flooded their tanks.
The store sells a variety of animals, such as hamsters and birds.
Smith estimated at least 200 animals were dead on the scene, or will not recover. Hundreds of others survived.
Investigators are trying to determine if the fire was electrical. Smith says heat lamps may have contributed to the blaze.
McKinney is 30 miles north of Dallas.

Sheik (SSBB)
Sheik (シーク, Sheik) is a character in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Sheik was originally hinted to return as a playable character when Eiji Aonuma, director of The Legend of Zelda stated he had sent the Twilight Princess designs of Sheik and Ganondorf to Sakurai. She was ultimately revealed on January 16, 2008.
Sheik saw a large drop in her tier position, from being rank 4th in the top tier of Melee, to being currently ranked 25th in the Middle tier of Brawl. Sheik retains her blinding attack speed from Melee, possessing some of the fastest movement, and frame data only rivaled by Meta Knight. Additionally, Sheik possesses a transcendent and fast projectile with high damage potential in her Needles, as well as great combo ability, and a lock in her forward tilt that can rack up over 50% in damage on most characters. Her power was significantly nerfed from Melee however. She possesses few attacks that can KO under 150% outside edge guarding, and of those few potential finishers, only two can be considered reliable in KOing (her sweetspotted up smash and the explosion in Vanish), both of which are difficult to land. Sheik also has very poor endurance; suffering from the combination of being tall and light, causing her to sustain high knockback while being rather easy to hit, which is exacerbated by her poor momentum cancelling, and her short distanced and easily edge hogged recovery. Additional problems Sheik has include her fast falling speed leaving her vulnerable to some juggles and chain throws, as well as short reach in the majority of her attacks. This has resulted in average matchups and below average tournament results for Sheik. Despite ranking significantly higher than Zelda, who rests at 37th on the tier list (second to dead last), her Zelda/Sheik form is considered a better character and is ranked slightly higher than Sheik alone (currently 24th), mainly as transforming into Zelda can help alleviate the very severe KO problems Sheik has in some matchups (such as against King Dedede).
Sheik is one of the fastest characters in the game, having the fourth fastest running speed, high attack speed, and a quick, long and deadly DACUS. She has one of the best comboing abilities, as her attacks have very little start up and ending lag, with overall low knockback, allowing them to chain effectively. The best example of this is Sheik's forward tilt. As in Melee, the forward tilt can smoothly follow after her up tilt, down tilt, neutral aerial, forward aerial, back aerial, down smash, and jab cancel; it can also repeatedly link into itself to easily rack up 50% or more, especially on fast-fallers or heavy characters, such as Fox. Sheik's up tilt can combo into itself very low percentages, and at slightly higher percentages, it leads well into a forward tilt. It has a very large hitbox in terms of size and duration, making it a powerful defensive move.
As for stronger moves with greater KO potential, Sheik's down smash has multiple hits and has long range. Her up smash can KO easily at around 100%, but only when it is sweetspotted, which is not always easy. Her forward smash isn't very powerful, but it is a two hit combo and has fairly good range.
Sheik has a fairly powerful air-game that really only lacks in one area: versatility. Her back and neutral aerials have very similar knockback and speed and negligible landing lag outside of auto-cancel. If hit in the initial few frames, they have decent knockback, making them useful for edgeguarding, and they have good range. Her up aerial has some landing lag and has less knockback. Her forward aerial is a quick swipe with low knockback but a great semi-spike trajectory, low lag, but sub-par range. This makes it a great move for KO'ing at higher percentages. Her down aerial is a stall-then-fall, negating all vertical knockback, but unfortunately, it has high landing lag.
Sheik does have versatility amongst her special moves, however. Needle Storm is a fast projectile that can be very hard to dodge and can be charged for increased damage. Sheik's up special is somewhat low in terms of recovery distance, but it has the second highest knockback of any of Sheik's moves. Combined with the invulnerability it grants, this can occasionally be used against some moves as a powerful counter, but it's also one of the hardest moves to hit with unless used in this way: it can also be used to edgeguard through Vanish Gliding. Sheik's forward special is the Chain, which can be used for a tether recovery and the Chain Jacket, which can be used to insert the knockback of the last attack into the Chain, giving an advantage over characters without attacks that cannot outrange or clank with the Chain. It is slow coming out and returning, however, and leaves her vulnerable from behind, a problem that can be capitalized on. Sheik's down special transforms her into Zelda, which allows use of two different characters in the same match, which can help to balance some of Sheik's weaknesses. Sheik also can wall jump, wall cling, and crawl.
Sheik is not a character without any weaknesses, however. Above all, Sheik does not have much KO'ing power on most of her moves, as a majority of her KO'ing moves in Melee were severely nerfed. Her two most powerful KO'ing moves are her sweetspotted up smash and Vanish, which are hard to connect with compared to Sheik's other moves. Sheik can use techniques such as DACUS and forward tilt to help connect her up smash, to an extent, but nothing else KO's reliably below 150%. This makes Sheik very reliant on getting numerous hits to rack up damage and edgeguarding. Additionally, Sheik's best chain of attacks (the forward tilt-lock) often stops working before the opponent reaches KO percentage (stops at about 50%, depending on the match-up of course: lasts to later percentages on fast-fallers and heavy characters like Wolf and Bowser, but stops sooner on light and floaty characters like Kirby and Jigglypuff). Because of this, it may be best to turn back into Zelda to KO the opponent. Sheik also has poor attack range on a good number of moves. Sheik is also very light-weight and tall for her weight class, making her easier to defeat than many characters (though this is not without its advantages, as it allows Sheik to escape some chaingrabs, including Dedede's infamous Chaingrab), and her poor recovery often comes up short. Sheik is also one of the fastest-falling characters in the game, making her vulnerable to any chaingrab that is effective against fast-fallers.
Changes from Melee to Brawl[edit]
Sheik has been notably nerfed in her transition from Melee to Brawl. She has lost a lot of offensive options that the she had before, her moves deal overall less damage, and her KOing ability was deceptively toned down, as well as being easier herself to KO. She has gained some buffs such as a less situational attack in her up smash due to the introduction of DACUS, and a stall-then-fall in her down aerial to negate all vertical knockback. These buffs, however, do not properly compensate for the loss of her many other abilities, resulting in a dramatic drop from her previous top tier position in Melee.

Role in The Subspace Emissary[edit]
If one chooses to rescue Zelda from Petey Piranha in the Subspace Emissary, the player can still transform into Sheik, despite her not technically being introduced until much later. Thus, Sheik is the only character in the Subspace Emissary to be playable before she is introduced. After Peach and Zelda are rescued by Lucario, Meta Knight, and Snake, the two princesses are ordered to stay where they are until the Halberd is under their control. Zelda transforms into Sheik and walks out with Peach, opening a window to the outside of the ship. Both princesses then make their way to the front deck of the ship. There, they witness Fox's Arwing attacking the Halberd, and his lasers meant for the Halberd's turret nearly injures Peach. In response, Sheik leaps into the air and uses Vanish onto the Arwing, striking the windshield and forcing Fox to jettison. They fall back to the Halberd, and begin to fight, but Peach offers them both tea, ending any erroneous hostilities.
As they drink their tea, several Mr. Game and Watches fall from the bridge and turn into shadow bugs that coalesce to form the monstrous Duon. The three prepare to fight, but are joined by Lucario, Snake, and Falco. They then proceed to defeat Duon, and it turns into the trophy of Mr. Game and Watch, who Peach revives. Then she and the other heroes journey into subspace for the final battle against Tabuu. Sometime when the Halberd was retaken, but before the Isle of Ancients was consumed by Subspace, Sheik transformed back into Zelda.
Playable appearances[edit]
Sheik is always playable in any level Zelda appears in. If Zelda is rescued in Midair Stadium, after The Lake Shore is completed, she along with her alternative form Sheik will be removed from the team until Battleship Halberd Exterior.
In Event Matches[edit]
Solo Events[edit]
Co-op Events[edit]
Sheik's main and Final Smash trophies can be obtained by clearing Classic Mode and All-Star mode respectively with Sheik.

West Nile Virus
Mosquitoes have always been a nuisance but with the spread of West Nile virus, they have also become an important public health concern. Flooding in many parts of the United States spring and summer of 2011 has raised concern about the increase of mosquito populations, especially those that carry the West Nile virus. Although the West Nile virus mainly infects birds, it can be transmitted to humans and other animals by certain species of mosquitoes that take blood meals from both birds and humans. The bite from just one infected mosquito is all that is needed to transfer the disease. In humans, West Nile virus disease symptoms vary from no visible effect to flu-like symptoms, paralysis, or even death. All age groups are susceptible, but the elderly and those with weakened immune systems are more likely to experience severe forms of the disease. More on symptoms Public mosquito control programs have been started in many cities and towns across the country. Even the best community mosquito control program will only reduce the risk from West Nile virus and thus wherever you live, personal protection against mosquito bites is your best safeguard. View mosquito trapping data in your community or local area.
Why do mosquitoes bite?
Adult female mosquitoes need blood to produce eggs and perpetuate their species. Although they can survive by feeding on sugary liquids, it is only after a blood meal that they start producing eggs. Only female mosquitoes bite. Male mosquitoes feed on sugars found in fruits and flowers. Mosquitoes looking for a blood meal are mainly attracted to carbon dioxide in the breath, body heat, and sweat of humans. Lactic acid and numerous other scents emitted by the human skin have also been found attractive to mosquitoes. Individuals who produce more body heat, sweat, carbon dioxide, and lactic acid will be more attractive to mosquitoes. Birds, horses, cattle, dogs, cats, rabbits, squirrels, and other animals are fed upon by mosquitoes. It is when mosquitoes bite different hosts that disease-causing microorganisms may be spread.
Disease-causing microorganisms moquitoes transmit
Entomology Arboviruses (short for arthropod-borne viruses) such as the West Nile virus, western equine encephalitis virus, and Saint Louis encephalitis virus are perhaps the most important microorganisms that mosquitoes transmit in the United States. In other parts of the world, mosquitoes are carriers of parasites that cause human malaria, filariasis, dengue fever, Japanese encephalitis, yellow fever, and others. The West Nile virus is a disease that primarily affects birds. It may be transmitted by mosquitoes from infected birds to other hosts such as humans or horses. The West Nile virus has not been shown to be transmitted from human to human, horses to humans, or horses to horses. Thus, the West Nile virus is carried by various species of birds and spread by mosquitoes.
Most effective way to prevent bites and control mosquitoes at home
Insect repellents are recommended as the best way for one to protect themselves from mosquito bites when involved in outdoor activities. Repellents act by making a person "undesirable" for feeding or in other words the repellent masks the gases and scents known to be attractive to mosquitoes. DEET and Picaridin are recommended to be applied to the skin and permethrin applied on the clothing. DEET and Picaridin repel mosquitoes while permethrin actually kills mosquitoes on contact. Using DEET or Picaridin alone or permethrin alone will not be as effective as using the two in combination. However, using DEET or Picaridin alone may be sufficient for most outdoor activities such as going to the park, mowing the lawn, gardening, or relaxing in the backyard. Individuals who will be outdoors for an extended period of time, like hunters and campers, are encouraged to use the combination of DEET or Picaridin and permethrin. There are alternative repellents such as combinations of soybean oil, geranium oil and coconut oil and lemon eucalyptus that have been shown to repel mosquitoes, but only for short periods of time. Before using any repellent read and follow all label directions. Mosquitoes lay their eggs in standing water. Limit the number of places around your home for mosquitoes to breed by getting rid of items that hold water. Repair broken screens and windows on your home. Support your community mosquito control programs.

Ayurveda: Book Cover Design (Typography)
Ayurveda is a Hindu system of traditional medicine native to India.The term Ayurveda comes from the Sanskrit. 'Ayu' means 'life' and 'Veda' means 'knowledge'. The literal translation of Ayurveda is 'knowledge of life' or 'right living'. This ayurveda knowledge is grounded in the Vedic scriptures, which date back to 3000 BC. It was also strongly influenced by the tantric traditions.The Ayurveda studies the physical and psychic behaviour of people and prescribes ways for them to synchronize with their environment so as to live happy, healthy and inspired lives. As we all know it is a very vast subject Ayurvedic medicines consist many plant based medicines, minerals and some animal products.
I used all popular medicines for my book cover. As these medicines are naturally made, I used different
shades of green color and I used black color which symbolizes power.

Chelsea Landmarks on the Brink–Possibly!–of Some Major Changes
A pair of Chelsea landmarks could be in for a major overhaul. And not necessarily in a good way, according to some residents. Chelsea apartment dwellars can go on and on about the things they love about their neighborhood.
There's the High Line, of course, the massively popular aerial greenway which even after almost four years of treating millions of New Yorkers and tourists alike to fantastic views, excellent design, and brilliant landscaping, still finds new ways to bring a smile to the face of even the most jaded of city folk.
Chelsea residents also have more than 400 art galleries right nearby, lining both sides of the streets in the 20s between 10th and 11th Avenues, and offering a constantly changing, peerless selection of modern and contemporary art. Add on all of the restaurant and nightlife options, loads of cool new architecture, and easy access to the great Hudson River Park (not to mention the massive Chelsea Piers sports complex), and it's east to see why Chelsea rental apartments are among the most coveted in town.
There are changes in the works for two Chelsea landmarks, however, and some locals are less than pleased. I'll start with the more emotionally-charged renovation, to that one-time bastion of beats, rock-n-rollers, and alternative artists, musicians, and writers of stripes, the Chelsea Hotel.
New Yorkers will remember that last year the legendary home to the likes of Patti Smith, Robert Mapplethorpe, William S. Burroughs, Janis Joplin, Charles Bukowski, and Bob Dylan, among dozens more hall-of-famers, was purchased by real estate investor Joseph Chetrit, who immediately broke everyone's heart by stripping the lobby of its world-renowned artwork, and then proceeded to do the same to the upstairs rooms, including Thomas Wolfe's old suite, in which he worked on You Can't Go Home Again in 1938.
Money is the motivation for all of this renovation, of course, as Chetrit is said to be amping up the luxury and turning at least some of the space into high-end condos… which is why he also wants to add a two-story rooftop bar to the top of the Chelsea Hotel.
But while there wasn't much anyone could do to stop Chetrit from gutting the heart and history out of the interior–the Chetrit Group did pay $80 million for it, after all–there are some who believe they can stop him from messing with the exterior of the protected, landmarked building. We'll see who wins this next round.
Another Chelsea landmark slated for a (much larger) vertical addition and a (potentially much larger) fight: the Chelsea Market, which has been one of the great success stories in town since it re-opened in 1997, transforming the old National Biscuit Company factory (where, by the way, the Oreo was invented) into a much-loved food court and sample-sale shopping mecca.
Broadcast and creative companies, including the local news channel NY1, Google, and the Food Network, have taken over the upper floors of the building, and everything seemed nicely in balance for both out-of-town visitors and Chelsea residents alike.
However, the owners of the two-block complex Jamestown Properties are eager to add add a whopping nine floors and 240,000 square feet of office space to the Chelsea Market building proper, AND a 90,000 square foot hotel on the Ninth Avenue side. Jamestown needs the City Council to approve a zoning change in order to get its way, and given the vehement displeasure with which the plans have so far been greeted, expect this battle to go on for awhile.
Time will tell the fate of these two popular Chelsea Landmarks.

Unable to log into your support forum, captha and security questions aren't working.
Go ahead and try again for me. I just tried a few test accounts and everything seemed okay. Perhaps the server was having a bad day at the time?? ;)
Could you try again for me and let me know?
HI Josh,
Yes I did try again and it worked. In fact you'll likely see soon a post from me on your forum.
Thank you for the reply.
My pleasure, Cindy.
See you over there!
Hi, I was just looking in my site control panel and noticed something strange concerning 404 errors and your ultimate tiny mce. This is what it says:
401 error hits
Referrers: http://www.yecheadquarters.org/wp-admin/admin.php
Is this someone trying to hack my blog through the plugin?
What is the url to your website? I doubt it's a hack because this is a CSS file. Hacks are typically done via PHP or JS files.
My toolbar, and HTML tab have disappeared when I go into a page. Please help! :-)
Hi, I encourage everyone to please use the support forum as mentioned at the top of this thread.
You might even find your answer over there. If you do not, please create a new thread and we will get to you asap!
Hi Josh,
When using the plugin editor, to format bulleted rows, the html code that appears has extra html scripts added i.e.

However, by pressing ctrl+0 (zoom default), the problem disappeared. Is there an explanation to this. The computer was not zoomed to any other level other than default, thanks.
[moderator note: please use the 'code' button to add backticks for displaying code]
Hi Peter,
I have never heard of that happening, whatsoever. I'm sorry, but I have no logical explanation at all.
Have you tried temporarily deactivating ALL your other plugins except Ultimate Tinymce.. just for testing to see if the issue persists?
Also, it might be something being added by your theme, since you mention it only happens in the html code.
I'd check those first.. and let me know what you find out.
Hi Josh,
I did check with my colleague, and as long as ctrl+0 was pressed, the problem did not occur. i.e. the extra html script was not added when formatting to a bulleted text.
Maybe this is a feature in itself, when zoomed to a level other than default, extra html script (style="font-size:13px") is added to a bulleted formatted text, thanks.
Perhaps. Again, I have no idea where it is coming from... certainly not a "feature" I developed ;)
Either way... glad you got it working!!
Please let me know if I may be of any further assistance.

CHICAGO (July 1, 2014) Bone marrow transplants can reverse severe sickle cell disease in adults, just as in children, a small, but promising government study found.
The technique is a modified version of what doctors have done in children.
It worked in 26 of 30 adults studied.
Donors were a brother or sister whose stem cell-rich bone marrow was a good match for the patient.
Doctors avoided doing the transplants in adults because of concerns that the disease had taken a toll on their bodies, but the researchers say the results show age shouldn't be a barrier.
The study was done at a National Institutes of Health research hospital in Maryland.
The results were published Tuesday in the Journal of the American Medical Association.

RUTLAND — A man charged with the rape of a 7-year-old girl pleaded guilty to the crime Tuesday in exchange for a plea deal that would allow him to avoid going to jail.
Charles A. Gould originally pleaded innocent to a felony charge of aggravated sexual assault against a victim under the age of 10, which prosecutors say took place in the year 2000.
But in exchange for a plea agreement — amending the charge to drop the aggravating factor, sentencing him to a jail term of two years and six months to seven years with all jail time suspended, and placing him on probation — Gould agreed to enter a guilty plea Tuesday.
The assault was brought to the attention of police by a family member of the girl. But the woman, who was 18 before she told her story to police, didn't initially want to talk to authorities, according to state police Detective Trooper Scott Dunlap.
By corroborating the woman's story with the accounts of others who were present on the day of the assault, Dunlap said, investigators were able to verify her story and build a case against Gould.
The 32-year-old Gould remains free on a $25,000 unsecured appearance bond pending his sentencing, which has yet to be scheduled.MORE IN Central VermontBARRE Joan Black came for the desserts, Shirley Farnham came for the music, Leon Gendron came...
