APX Alarm A must read if you are considering having an APX Alarm security system installed. Written by a former employee. Internet
First of all I would like to say that I worked for APX Alarm for one summer installing alarms. There are some tips I have for people who are approached by any APX sales representatives.
First of all, do not sign anything without reading over it more than once. There are many reps out there that will tell you that you can cancel at any time. This is true but you ONLY HAVE 3 DAYS FROM THE TIME OF INSTALLATION TO CANCEL WITHOUT ANY PENALTIES. After the 3 days if you try to cancel you will be held liable for paying off the remainder of your 5 year contract. This is written out in the contract and no matter what the rep tells you, you ONLY HAVE 3 DAYS TO CANCEL WITHOUT PENALTY.
Next, if you agree to have this free system installed, the rep is going to try to give you the very minimum amount of equipment that he can and still make the sale. Most likely they are going to tell you that puttting sensors on your doors and maybe a motion sensor or glassbreak sensor will cover your whole house. Do not go for this. The less equipment he gives you the more he is going to make on the sale. For an average sized home I would recommend covering all your doors with sensors, at LEAST one motion sensor, and also covering all your windows with either multiple glassbreak sensors throughout the house or with door/window sensors on every window, also demand that you recieve key remotes and a smoke detector.
Also if you have a home phone line they are going to tell you how great the 2 way voice is and its like having ONSTAR. Yes the 2 way voice is a great feature but beware. First of all 99% of APX Technician do not do full line seizure. This means if you are on the telephone while someone tries breaking in, the line is already in use and it is not going to notify anyone. It also allows for a burglar to break into your home and if he gets to a telephone quickly he can end the call and the alarm again notifies no one. So if you are having the alarm hooked up to your telephone line make sure that the technician does full line seizure. Full line seizure gives your alarm system priority over the rest of the phone lines in your house so if you are on the telephone while someone breaks in your phone call will be terminated and the alarm system will dial out a signal to the monitoring company.
Also if you are going to allow an alarm be installed in your home tell the representative that you would like a cell unit. If you do not have a home phone the cell unit is your only choice but even if you do have a home phone demand a cell unit. This is vital because if your alarm is only hooked to your telephone all a burglar has to do is take a pair of scissors, wirecutters, etc and go to the side of your house and find the telephone demarcation box. Once he snips your phone lines (which is incredibly simple to do) your alarm will not notify anyone, all it will do is make noise. With the cellular backup system, once the phone lines are cut the cell unit takes over the signal sending process and your alarm will still work.
If you play your cards right you can get a very good alarm system from APX Alarm for a very good deal. Also do not pay a penny over 44.99/month. Anything you are paying over that much is just putting more money in the sales reps pocket. If you are not recieving a cell unit (phone line only) do not pay over 39.99/month again that is just more money in his pocket. One last thing, the rep is going to tell you that you have to sign a 60 month "agreement" which is a 5 year contract. This is not true, APX also offers 36 month contracts but the rep is unlikely to tell you about this option because he loses at least 40% of his commission off of the sale.

I have always, always loved patchwork quilts and as my children grew up and I had more free time it became quite an addiction. I love to create my own patterns often just sketched on the back of an envelope or something. I was always a doodler, but now with cell phones I think that too is a dying art - my best doodles were when I was on the phone.
I try not to create too big a stash of fabrics, but I do find that it is often the fabric that inspires a quilt in the first place. On my visits to the USA (it was formerley the yellow pages that I had to rely on to find the best shops, but isn't the internet wonderful) when visiting an area and I must confess that there were times when I have been enthusiastic about a certain place to visit, unbeknown to my husband, and just 'happened' to fall upon a wonderful quilt store. I made the Union Jack quilt for myself originally but was asked repeatedly for the pattern. It is a wonderful quilt to make and a treasure forever,
I was asked in 2011 to make a quilt with Union Jacks for my sons family camping holidays. When I had completed this quilt I was inundated with requests from friends for the pattern and this was the start. It is a quilt even for people who don't 'do' quilts. It will never date and even in 100 years time the Union Jack may have changed but it will always be The Union Jack. It is brilliant for Brits anywhere in the world, for whenever there is a reason to celebrate or just for watching The Cricket, The Tennis, Concerts by the lake or picnics in the Park. Inside on a bed or couch, or outside on the grass or beach it is unseasonal and practical.
For 2012 it represents a souvenir to make for a family member or friends to celebrate our Queens Jubilee or The Olympic Games held in London.
I have found however that one is not enough, all the boys in my family want one and so now I'm on my fourth.

Phil Spector remains an enigma after his 2009 conviction for the death of actress Lana Clarkson six years earlier. He's in prison today. Clarkson, dead of a gunshot wound, was found in his mansion. Was it suicide, an accident or murder?
Spector was a record producer famous for a technique, called "The Wall of Sound," that he developed to create an overall style for his groups. Wikipedia tells me: "Spector called his technique 'a Wagnerian approach to rock & roll: little symphonies for the kids.' " He named and renamed groups, selected their material, acted as their svengali and essentially created the soundtrack for freeway commuting in L.A.
In the case of "Phil Spector," the Wall of Sound Man is played by Al Pacino, loosely inspired by life, as in another recent performance, that time as euthanasia advocate Dr. Jack Kevorkian.
He plays the role cannily. His Spector knows if he's guilty of murder, but we don't, and that adds to the film's interest. The script is by director David Mamet, who as he often does, prefers an almost hypnotic style in which a character seems to be arguing with himself. This could have happened. That could have happened. The character was there and saw whatever happened, and he doesn't know.
This phenomenon is underlined by Spector's lifestyle. Enormously wealthy, reclusive, he lives inside a forbidding structure, which as he approaches and leaves through its iron gates, reminds us of Xanadu in "Citizen Kane."
The co-star is Helen Mirren, playing Linda Kenney Baden, the attorney who was successfully able to reach a retrial in a case where, as one line of dialogue has it, if Spector wasn't found guilty on the merits of his case, he'd be found guilty on grounds of the notorious O.J. Simpson murder case. Mamet deliberately avoids portraying Baden as heroic, or even right or wrong. She's simply doing her best job.
The film contains scant suspense and few surprises, and depends largely on Pacino's work as an articulate and eccentric painter of his own portrait. His description of his hairstyle, as photographed while back-lighted, has a peculiar charm. Hair also plays a role in the Mirren performance. Baden clings to a blond style that must have been more becoming 20 years ago.
Winning the hung jury in the first trial is a tribute to Baden, who in an effective drawing, shows a small-caliber bullet entering the victim's skull, bouncing off its back wall and making a U-turn. Stranger things have happened. Not a lot.
The dialogue, vaguely Mametian, might have profited by more of the Mamet style. He seems bogged in realism. Few write better dialogue than Mamet at full power. Here he seems at half-steam.
A first-rate supporting cast, including Jeffrey Tambor and Matt Malloy, illuminates second-rate supporting roles. "Phil Spector" is just about ideal as an HBO movie; watchable and gossip-worthy but just not that compelling.

Hi all,
I have created a wordpress webpage offline via my WAMP server.
I followed a tutorial how to tranfer all of my data to a server on the www.
My question is the following; What will happen to all the URL paths that the images have in my post? Now the images have the URL paths:
Do I have a problem, or will this all be changed by the general settings in WordPress?

Hi Tobias
Fantastic plugin!
I'm just wondering if you'd be able to develop such a functionality as "filter" in Excell 2010, where different columns can be filtered respectively?
Vielen Dank :)
Hi Tobias
Fantastic plugin!
I'm just wondering if you'd be able to develop such a functionality as "filter" in Excell 2010, where different columns can be filtered respectively?
Vielen Dank :)
Hi Karol,
thanks for your post.
I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "filter" in this context. Do you have an example or screenshot, to make sure that we are on the same page?
Do you maybe mean something like on this website: http://datatables.net/release-datatables/examples/api/multi_filter_select.html
Yes, that's exactly what I am looking for. Menus preferably at the top.
Now my the question would be:
- how to implement it?
Hi Karol,
so, you'd like http://datatables.net/extras/thirdparty/ColumnFilterWidgets/DataTables/extras/ColumnFilterWidgets/ better?
Unfortunately, implementing this is not that trivial. I'm planning on developing "Plugin Extensions" for features like this, but that might still take some time. :-(
Until then, it might be the best approach to not use the automatic integration of the DataTables JS library by TablePress, but to load it manually. In that approach, TablePress would deliver just the plain HTML table, without the JavaScript functionality. That would need to be added manually by doing some custom programming. Helpful resources would be http://datatables.net/blog/Getting_started_with_DataTables%3A_First_steps and maybe the WordPress HiFi plugin from http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/hifi/ that allows to add JavaScript to specific pages/posts.
Thank You
Appreciate your help!
Looking forward for plugin update, and in the meantime will try to play with the code ;)
Hi Karol,
that sounds like a good solution :-)
Best wishes,
I have this code ready now for TablePress :-) It is available as a TablePress Extension.
I haven't yet found the time to add it to the TablePress website, so it's just available in the GitHub repository at https://github.com/TobiasBg/TablePress-Extensions/tree/master/tablepress-datatables-multi-filter-select
Basically, you will need these three file, but them into a subfolder "tablepress-datatables-multi-filter-select" and install that as a regular WordPress plugin. Then, just add a new parameter to your Shortcode, i.e. change something like
[table id=1 /]
[table id=1 datatables_multi_filter_select=true /]
to use this feature.
Hi Tobias,
Do you I need to uninstall Tablepress, put the new folder into the Tablepress folder on my server then reinstall the plugin? I tried zipping the folder you mentioned above and tried installing that as a plugin and it did not work. Am I missing a step?
no, nothing to uninstall here! The new plugin is a separate folder, that just needs to go into "wp-content/plugins" (so that you have both "tablepress" and "tablepress-datatables-multi-filter-select" as folders in "wp-content/plugins".
After that, just activate the new "TablePress Extension" plugin in WordPress, and add that Shortcode parameter.
I tried that and the plugin doesn't show up in WordPress to be activated.
are you sure that you now have the folder "wp-content/plugins/tablepress-datatables-multi-filter-select" which has the three files "tablepress-datatables-multi-filter-select.php", "multi-filter-select.min.js", and "multi-filter-select.js" directly in it, without any other subfolders?
After that, you will see the new plugin "TablePress Extension: Individual Column Filtering (with dropdowns)" in your WordPress Plugins list.
Yes sir, I even restarted my server to make sure everything loaded. Just for you to see as well: http://imgur.com/6oF3f
Correction, here's the link: http://imgur.com/a/zFXVe
have you select the "All" tab at the top of the page? Just from your list of folders, the list of plugins should be much longer. Thus, this indicates, that you are currently only viewing the active plugins.
Nope, the all tab is selected, and I have 17 plugins activated.
ok, at this point, it might be a good idea if I take a direct look at your site. Could you therefore please contact me by email (the address is in the main plugin file "tablepress.php").
I would if I could but it is being served from my company's intranet. I may just have to give up hope on this. I do appreciate all the help you have given me thus far.
ah, ok, I see.
Can you check again if the contents of the three files match those from the GitHub pages?
And, do you see the deactivated plugins in that list?
Also, are you sure that all plugins are shown on one page, or is there maybe a pagination control near the plugins list?
I just downloaded all three files again to a new folder. I've now moved that folder to my plugins directory. The plugin is still not showing up.
I've cleaned up my plugins directory; I now only have 11 plugins activated and I've removed all of my deactivated plugins.
All 11 plugins (as well as before when I had 17 activated plugins) are displayed on one page.
Thank you so much for working with me,
Hi Brad,
thanks a lot for testing all this!
We could try a different method to install the plugin. Instead of loading it to the server manually via FTP, we could try the ZIP upload method in WordPress.
For that, I'd like to send you a ZIP file version of the plugin that I have tested on my site, and that is working nicely. So, please contact me by email, so that I can send you the plugin.
Just a general question. Is this the way you install all other plugins? I have a hard time finding that information.
me? I'm usually installing all plugins directly from the repository (the one click install). On my local dev machine, I sometimes also just install them by copying them to the appropriate directory (similar to the FTP method, but only in the local file system).
For non-local sites, I use the ZIP upload mechanism for plugins that are not in the WP plugin repository.
sorry for bad english
i have a such problem as already was written
i can't see additional plugin at list
but i all do right
can you help me?
which plugin are you talking about? Are you sure that you are seeing all plugins? Did you really copy it to the correct location?
despite the fact that I have created an additional folder and put this three files, I do not see it in the plug-ins as well as already mentioned
the plugin is working and filtering do not work ...
help please
that's strange then... Can you maybe contact me via email (the address is in the main plugin file "tablepress.php"), so that I can take a direct look? This should be faster than have to guess.
TobiasBg, i send u mail.
for everybody following this thread:
After working with malinator, we found that the problem was that the download didn't contain the raw data, but the stuff from the Github page around it as well. This probably happened, because my instructions in the thread were ambiguous.
To fix this, install and activate the plugin from https://github.com/downloads/TobiasBg/TablePress-Extensions/tablepress-datatables-multi-filter-select.zip instead of doing it manually.
Hello Tobias,
Great extension ! One more question about this (if you need an other thread, don't hesitate to tell me).
Is it possible to use datatables-multi-filter-select with your Responsive Tables extension ?
I would like to filter my data with dropdown menus in your responsive table, but I don't no if it's possible.
Thanks a lot !
Best Regards
Hi Matt,
thanks for your question.
To be honest, I don't know, I haven't tried using both of these together. I can't really think of a reason why this shouldn't work, right now. Have you tried it?
If that Multi-Filter-Select Extension does not work, you could take a look at the ColumnFilterWidgets Extension, which will add this: http://datatables.net/extras/thirdparty/ColumnFilterWidgets/DataTables/extras/ColumnFilterWidgets/
To use that, just install and activate http://tablepress.org/download/extension/tablepress-datatables-column-filter-widgets.zip as a plugin and extend the Shortcode to
[table id=123 datatables_columnfilterwidgets=true /]
(and also leave the desired responsive parameter in it).

This is good. My LO isn't walking yet & is about 22 pounds. So he should still be good. He still loves it.
Lucky you that you can still use it! We stopped some time ago b/c LO hated it. Which worked well b/c we passed it down to my nephew :)
Loving my life surrounded by boys - DH, E (11), and L (6).
I stopped using ours completely once lo started to crawl and had better use of his arms. For us, it came in handy when he couldn't get around at all and had limited range of motion with his arms - he could still reach out and explore the things on his entertainer. But, once he was capable of doing that on his own and getting around better, I felt that the entertainer was no longer helping in his development and was just taking up space.

I'm happy for Fulham to go - I think it's their time really - but I really want Bolton to stay up. They had such potential for UEFA, even playing their reserves (actual reserves, not Arsenal 'reserves') they nearly had Sporting Lisbon, & they're not a bad side. I also think Megson's got what it takes for them, if it wasn't for the brief Sammy Lee period we'd be looking at a very different picture.That said, the nearest team that I'm not fussed about seeing go down is Sunderland (and even then I'd rather they didn't, so Middleborough really), so I think I'll be disappointed whatever happens. I was about to share the reasons for wanting all the teams inbetween to stay up, but they're not very interesting so I won't.

Backfire Repair Guide
Backfire Repair Guide
Does your engine back fire and you are wondering why? When your engine back-fires it can do so in one of two ways, first and most common way is when the engine is running a small explosion of un-burnt fuel is processed into the intake manifold creating the bang sound you hear. This occurrence can happen once or a few times when the engine is under load, or it can happen continuously signaling a mechanical failure which I will go over in the following repair. The second kind of problem will occur from the rear of the vehicles tail pipe which is a rich fuel mixture problem that can happen when parts fail and in race cars using a turbo charger. We will cover the primary occurrence of the engine under load first. This problem must be corrected and can not be neglected because serious engine damage can occur, it's an explosion of un-burn gas which can bend the throttle actuator plate, push intake gaskets outward creating a leak and I have even seen where the plastic intake manifold itself has blown apart, back in the day they were made of aluminum and could withstand this kind of problem. On the small side of things a simple vacuum hose might get pushed off which is an easy fix, anyway let's get started.
Step 1
Anytime you have an engine that is backfiring the first thing to look for is a check engine light. If no warning lights are on continue down this guide. If the check engine or service engine soon light in on scan the computer for trouble codes.
Learn more
Step 2
An intake explosion is caused by the fuel air mixture being to lean when the engine is demanding power. Every internal combustion engine runs on a mixture of 14 to 1 which is fourteen parts air to one part fuel. This fuel must be atomized correctly to complete the burn process. The most common cause for this is a weak fuel pump which cannot supply the volume of fuel needed for the injectors to produce a proper spray pattern or deliver the amount of fuel needed for proper acceleration.
Learn more
Some cars have a fuel filter which can also cause a fuel pressure and volume restriction. When they plug due to particles in the gasoline they can case a lean condition, if you have not changed the system filter lately locate and replace it.
Learn more
Step 3
Your vehicle's computer system monitors the air that enters the engine via the mass air flow sensor. When this sensor malfunctions due to a condition called coking where as the hot wire inside the sensor becomes contaminated it will alter the reading to the computer which will make a lean mixture condition that may or may not trigger a check engine light. The computer thinks there is less air entering the engine than there actually is, less air means less fuel. The first step is to remove the sensor and clean it using carburetor cleaner.
Learn more
I have had better luck by replacing the sensor because once this condition happens the hot wire can becomes unresponsive in which case the sensor needs to be replaced.
Learn more
Step 4
The air intake boot or tube transfers air from the mass air flow sensor into the throttle actuator and then into the engine. If there is a problem with these parts such as a tear or rip it will allow un-metered air into the engine which the computer will see via the oxygen sensor which in turn will deliver less fuel creating a lean condition. Check this part for damage by removing it for inspection and replace it if needed.
Learn more
Step 5
The engine's intake system depends on being a sealed unit free from leaks. If a main vacuum hose such as the power brake booster feed line has broken or failing off it will cause a lean backfire due to the additional air allowed into the engine intake manifold. This problem will be accompanied by high or low engine idle and a harder to push brake pedal than normal.
Learn more
Repetitive Back fire
A repetitive backfire is generated when the engine is simply running at idle or at cruising speed and can be inline with the engine RPM, a rhythmic sound which is not as prominent as a lean under power back-fire. The problem list below will give you an idea of what causes could be generating this condition.
Step 6
The engine's ignition system is triggered by an electronic driver which signals the ignition coil when to fire. By design the resistance it takes to fire the coil via the spark plug is figured into the system. When this resistance becomes excessive due to severely worn spark plugs or a bad ignition coil it can cause these drivers to malfunction at which point they can crossfire into an opposing cylinder either under power or at idle. This condition may or may not be detected by the computer so the check engine warning light may not come on. Spark plugs should be changed at regular intervals, platinum plugs at about 60,000 miles which will correct this problem.

Step 7
A camshaft is used to open the intake and exhaust valves of the combustion chamber to allow intake air in, and the spent exhaust gases out. If the exhaust valve lobe becomes worn and loses it's lift the fire from the exhaust gases are still left in the cylinder which is then released into the intake manifold once the intake valve opens. To check for this condition remove the valve cover.
Lean more
After the valve cover has been removed and with the ignition disabled (coils off) crank the engine over and observe the intake and exhaust valve operation, opening and closing.
Also, if the intake or exhaust valves are not closing completely due to a broken valve spring it will allow the combustion gases to enter the intake manifold mush like a flat camshaft lobe. Use a flashlight in carefully check the valve spring windings, these springs can break either at the top middle or bottom of the spring which can be sometimes be difficult to see. A bent push rod can also cause the valve not to work properly by restricting the movement of the valve. While the valve cover is still removed, look at each of the pushrods to see if there is an obvious bend to them, this can be done also by detecting poor rocker arm movement while the engine is being cranked over.
Exhaust Tail Pipe Back Fire
An exhaust tail pipe backfire is caused by an excessive amount of un-burnt fuel remaining in the exhaust system or fresh air being allowed to enter the system which ignites a small amount of an un-burnt fuel.
Step 1
If fresh air is allowed to leak into the exhaust system it will ignite the un-burnt fuel inside the system creating a popping noise. It is difficult to think of because most people think of a exhaust system to be under constant pressure but this is not true, the system is fed with a series of pressure and vacuum pulses which are created by the exhaust valve opening while the combustion charge being expelled into the system, and then the valve closing, this is where the vacuum event is created by the pulse velocity and the fresh air let into the system. This why when you can get a lean mixture trouble code when there is an exhaust system leak.
Learn more
Inspect the system and repair any exhaust leaks present, this detection is done by looking for a flat back shoot which is evidence of a leak.
Step 2
On engines made from about 2001 and older were equipped with a air injection system that was fed into the exhaust system when the engine was under load, this was to burn unspent fuel which helped the emission system to work better. These systems were fitting with a gulp valve that acted like a one way check valve to allow air into the system when they detected exhaust system pressure which only occurs under load. This gulp valve is fitted to the exhaust manifold via a large pipe or an individual port tubing configuration with a rubber tube that connected to an air pump. When the valve goes bad air was released into the system at all times even during de-acceleration which then created a backfire kind of popping due to the fresh air igniting the unspent fuel. Most engines had one or two of these valve one for each exhaust manifold. To check these valves you must remove them and then try to blow through them each way, only one direction should be allowed only. If air is allowed in both directions the valve is bad and should be replaced.
Step 3
When high performance turbo engines are under load they use an excessive amount of fuel which then is transferred into the exhaust system once the throttle is let up and the engine is de-accelerating. This is a normal event and there is no problem with this condition. On older engine's ignition timing is set at a specific degree in relationship to the crankshaft, if this timing is mis-adjusted it can cause low power, poor gas mileage, engine detonation (pinging) and backfiring through the intake or exhaust system.

Bognor young person a shining star in work experience programme
Published by rtownsend for Sanctuary Housing Association in Housing and also in Communities, Education
Sarah Mclellan
Over this month (November 2012), a young person from Bognor living in a Sanctuary Supported Living Scheme is to be featured in a campaign highlighting the success of Britain Works, Microsoft's programme to help people into work.
Sarah McLellan was among 30 young people to take part in the pilot programme, and she is now being highlighted as one of the stars of the scheme, with her story being featured on posters at Westminster Underground station throughout November.
Sanctuary Group has been working in partnership with Microsoft Academy to create IT learning opportunities at five of Sanctuary's supported housing schemes.
Under the scheme, young people are given access to laptops and training in a range of software such as Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint and to use the internet to search for employment and complete college work.
The leading housing and care provider has contributed £30,000 through the project which has been used to pay for computers, training and broadband.
As a reward for successfully completing the training programme, Sarah, along with a small group of other young people living in Sanctuary Supported Living schemes, were also given an opportunity to hone their IT skills and get a head start in the job market through a week of work experience with Microsoft and BT.
The participants were able to get a behind the scenes look at the IT industry, as well as one-to-one careers advice, help with preparing their CVs and training on presentation skills.
Sarah said: "I came to live at Linden Road in Bognor with a suitcase and no prospects. One year on, Sanctuary has helped me grow as a young adult and helped me realise what opportunities there are for young people like myself. Now I'm finishing my A-levels this year and hope to start at University in September.
"The photo-shoot for the poster campaign was a great opportunity. I really enjoyed travelling to London for the experience. It was nice to get my hair and makeup done for it and I can't wait to see the result!"

Boxing Gloves
Boxing gloves aren't only used by boxers anymore. They are used in fitness training workouts with punching bags or while practicing martial arts. Boxing improves total-body strength, cardiovascular health, hand-eye coordination and helps decrease stress. You can even training at home with the purchase of a heavy bag or speed bag. We sell a variety of options including training gloves, grappling gloves, aerobic gloves and other hand wraps.
What's the difference between Professional gloves and Training gloves? Training gloves are thinner and lightweight with much less padding. They are designed for bag and pad work. Pro gloves offer thicker padding to lessen the damage on your opponent.
Boxing gloves are sold in different weights as well as sizes for men, women and kids. 8 oz gloves are typically used by kids under 150 lbs. 12 oz gloves usually fit adults under 150 lbs. Adults weighing 150-175 lbs typically use 14 oz gloves and 16 oz gloves are for boxers over 175 lbs. Gloves are often constructed of leather or synthetic leather with mesh palms for breathability.
As boxing gloves can get pretty pricey, it's important to take care of your gloves to ensure they will last a long time. Never put your gloves in a plastic bag or leave them in your gym bag. Moisture will create an unpleasant odor and could even grow mold inside of them. You should always let them dry in the sun or in front of a fan after using. You can also use disinfect spray or wipes on the exterior and interior to kill bacteria.

Frequent ejaculations, especially in 20-something men, may reduce the risk of prostate cancer later in life, Australian researchers reported in the British Journal of Urology International. When they followed men diagnosed with prostate cancer and those without, they found no association of prostate cancer with the number of sexual partners as the men reached their 30s, 40s, and 50s.
But they found men who had five or more ejaculations weekly while in their 20s reduced their risk of getting prostate cancer later by a third.
Another study, reported in the Journal of the American Medical Association, found that frequent ejaculations, 21 or more a month, were linked to lower prostate cancer risk in older men, as well, compared with less frequent ejaculations of four to seven monthly.

The Scarlet Witch Warpedthe 616 Reality into The House Of M, then she depower 99% of the world mutants jsut by saying three words, Frankcreate his own universe and planets and Mad Jim Jaspers warped his entire universe, so is she still a match for them and is she around the same scale of power
Is she a match for Franklin Richards or Mad Jim Jaspers...
Frank is the upper tier thats for sure, but only when he wasnt aware of it (as a kid) the more he started to learn how to control it the weaker his abilities got
So do you think she could be him or at least go toe to toe with him for a while........
Well she wouldnt be able to blink him out of existence without him wanting it to happen. No.
What about Jasper's........

Wasn't Franklin one of those depowered by Scarlet Witch?
Franklin's powers 'disappeared' way before M-Day. Given Marvel's Sliding Timeline I don't know how long before. Regardless, he lost them when he and the older version of Valeria used their combined powers to bring back to life the Galactus of an alternate reality in order to imprison Abraxas again.
no way
I thnik she would at least last a while... Here is some examples of what she has done...
>sustains atmosphere inside the moon base after a hole is blown in it
>works a hex in order to keep a floundering jet from sinking any further
>forms a hex sphere which absorbs the full destructive power of Black Bolt's scream into itself
>casts a specific and focused hex that causes the Recorder's body to rapidly break down as if it had endured five thousand years of "wear and tear" over a period of a mere five seconds
>transmutes War Machine's armor into pure iron
>causes a foe to burst into flame
>draws water up from an underground river and causes it to erupt in large geisers to douse a fire
>causes the river to surge into a wave and splash the Enchantress
>banishes all oxygen from the vicinity of a Blood Brother, almost causing him to pass out
>transforms a magnetized barrier composed of metal shards into a field made of harmless flowers
>animate wood and trees to attack, fire mystical force bolts, and create a massive storm casting down torrential rain, hailstones, and more lightning bolts on her victims
>materializes animated cubes of reality to project the recent past
>utters the words "No More Mutants", restoring reality to what it was before but depowering 90-95% of Earth's mutant population
>creates a pocket reality in her room where she was married and birthing children
>creates several fake Avengers to respond to the crisis at the mansion, among them Quicksilver
>creates a Kree armada to attack the gathered Avengers
>takes control of the Vision's synthezoid mind and forces him to crash a Quinjet into Avengers Mansion

Wow, Wanda seems very powerful!

Honestly, I do not think so.
These two guys are overtly powerful eventhough Wanda can give them at least a bit of an ouch before she gets liquidated.
Franklin Richards is a mutant with vast psionic powers. His abilities are so great that he can create "pocket" universes in alternate realities. (A "pocket" universe is a cosmos that does not equal our own in size.) When Franklin achieves the conscious use of his full powers, he will have telepathic powers, tremendous telekinetic powers, the ability to fire enormously powerful energy blasts, and the ability to rearrange the molecular structure of matter, even up to a cosmic scale. Franklin Richards has imposed mental blocks within his own mind to prevent him from using most of his psionic potential while he is still such a young child. It is possible that the strength of these blocks has faded over time, or that they cannot prevent him from utilizing his full powers unconsciously, as he did in creating the alternate reality to which he dispatched his parents and others following their clash with Onslaught. The mental blocks also work only when Franklin is in his physical body; his astral form can apparently use all of his psionic potential if it has separated from his physical form.The mental blocks did not restrict Franklin from using his precognitive abilities, which manifest themselves in his dreams, enabling him to envision possible future events. Although there are countless possible futures, Franklin foresees the most probable future path, and therefore his predictions usually come true. Franklin seemingly cannot foresee events more than roughly a few days in the future. Franklin's precognitive power developed to the point at which he could see images of future events even when he's conscious.Franklin also developed the ability to place himself in a trance-like state while remaining fully conscious. While he is in this trance, he can project an intangible, ghostlike image of himself to another location, through which he can see and hear what goes on at that location. What Franklin has called the "dreams" he has while in this state are not truly dreams, but his conscious awareness of the environment into which he has projected his "dream-self." It is not yet known how far Franklin can project his "dream-self" away from his physical body, but he has projected it onto a planet while his physical body was in a starship high above the planet's surface.
Franklin is an Omega-level mutant possessing vast psionic powers. According to Roma, in heroes return Franklin's power is equal to that of the Celestials. These powers have manifested as telepathy, telekinesis, energy blasts of concussive force (in adulthood), precognition, astral projection, and reality manipulation -- the ability to make a thought or desire a reality. However, being a child, his abilities are restricted to an extent by his limited control -- at any given moment his powers could spawn the unthinkable with something less than a thought, or risk temporary depletion if overly exerted.In terms of unrealized potential, Franklin was generally considered for years to be the most powerful mutant in the Marvel Universe surpassing even Charles Xavier and Magneto.It is implied Franklin may possess some form of (possibly hereditary) superhuman intellect, as thought by the Thing, who was greatly surprised that a mere seven-year old was able to come up with the idea of consulting the prisoners for aid, and attributes this to being the son of Reed Richards. This is also possibly connected with residues of Franklin's immense mental powers. Sir James Jaspers is, without a doubt, one of most powerful beings in the Marvel universe, with the power to warp reality. The less powerful Earth-238 version of Jaspers was able to warp his entire universe beyond recognition to such a degree that it became necessary to destroy the Earth-238 timeline completely just to stop the Jaspers' Warp from spreading to other universes. From what Merlyn hinted during his telepathic alert to Captain Britain, the more powerful Earth-616 Jaspers was an omniversal scale threat whose power would continue to grow and develop on an exponential rate:
Mad Jim Jaspers has vast, nigh-omnipotent reality warping powers almost on a cosmic scale. He can restructure matter and energy on an enormous scale and bend and distort space to create tesseract spaces which are far larger than what would otherwise fit into a three dimensional space. He can warp and disrupt the laws of physics to make entire universes unsuitable for life if left unchecked. A feature that Jaspers has been shown himself to be capable of is to readily alter his own form and stature, an ability which has not been often utilized by other mutant reality warpers, with the exception of young Franklin Richards, who previously willed himself to take on the form of the messianic like adult figure known as Avatar, as seen in Fantastic Four # 245. At one time Jaspers had altered his own stature to become a giant and was holding Captain Britain between two of his fingers as if he were an ant. During his battle with the Fury, he altered his own form to change into completely different lifeforms and even non-living objects while maintaining his own human mind. He reanimated his entire body after having been fried into an empty skeleton by the Fury, which might imply, alongside with the shape- and stature-altering that he was partially supernatural and could reform from almost nothing. He has been able to easily resurrect dead characters and create his own sentient lifeforms.

This is my opinion but I do not think anyone is equal to Mad Jim Jaspers. remember Mad jim is a combonation of Sir jim jaspers and Fury. and Fury was the only thing able to kill Sir jim but teleport outside or the universe.
i can't remember how but Jim jasper from was reformed in the recreated earth 238 timeline and merged with Fury creating Mad Jim jaspers. Making what in my opinion
is an unbeatable Charater equaled only by Thanos wearing the infinity gaunlet

Hex Bolts: Initially, the Scarlet Witch had the ability to manipulate probability via her "hexes" (often manifesting physically as "hex spheres" or "hex bolts"). These hexes are relatively short range, and are limited to her line of sight. Casting a hex requires a gesture and concentration on her part, though the gestures are largely a focus for the concentration. Early in her career, her hexes were unconscious on her part, and would be automatically triggered whenever she made a particular gesture, regardless of her intent. These hexes would only manifest "bad luck" effects. She later gained enough control over her powers that her powers only work when she wants them to, and they are not limited to negative effects. She can use her hexes to light flammable objects, contain or remove air from a particular volume, deflect objects, stop the momentum of projectiles, open doors, explode objects, create force fields and deflect magical attacks. Her powers while beginning to unveil a higher potential appeared capable of prevailing against the mastered mystical ones of Dormammu in his own Dark Dimension when she and the Avengers fought against him for Avalon's Evil Eye power-object, albeit indirectly by disrupting the energies of Dormammu and the Eye. They have been known to alter the molecular composition and physical state of physical objects, negate or distort physical laws, and to cause various forms of energy to spontaneously appear or disappear. She has an affinity with natural elements and phenomena, stemming largely from her magical training under Agatha Harkness, and has trained often at using her hexes to deflect projectiles or to cause enemies to stumble or otherwise suffer the effects of "bad luck". Ultimately, the hexes are not under the Witch's direct control, although she can influence the nature of their effects with great concentration and effort. This makes her one of the few Avengers that Ultron fears; his adamantium shell cannot repel magic. She has displayed the ability to cancel Longshot and Domino's powers of probability and has also once turned Longshot into a cat.
Flight: Wanda has recently portrayed the ability to fly, though even prior to her mental collapse she has inexplicably demonstrated such an ability. The full extent to this ability is unknown. Loki in disguise: * Teleportation: She has recently been seen teleporting herself and numerous other persons across distant locations from oceans and foreign countries.
Astral Projection: Wanda can project an astral form across undefined distances. Abilities Expert Knowledge of Sorcery: Wanda was trained by Agatha Harkness in witchcraft. Her sorceress training has not given her a set of powers separate from her mutant abilities, but only honed her control over her existing abilities. She has, however, a special affinity for the natural elements and materials that witches utilize in their spells: the four alchemical elements, wood, organic substances, etc.
Expert Combatant: Wanda has also been trained in hand-to-hand combat by both Captain America and Hawkeye.
Expert Tactician: When sane, the experience and leadership skills that come from years of active duty as an Avenger.
Bump. I have a question. Was all of Wandas HOUSE OF M powerset and crazy flying and shooting magic beams and the vast reality warping because of chaos magic?

She can't beat them without access to the Life Force/Chaos Magic. Her typical power levels are unreliable for that type of feat.
Depending on the writer, it could go either ways with Scarlet Witch. Reality warpers are hard to define. I think she still has her life force power or else she shouldn't be able to defeat 2 phoenixes by herself. They did say Wanda's power has some connection with phoenix. Phoenix is the power of all life while Wanda's power called life force. It's hard to say they are not related.

Share the post "Adrien Broner and R&R Promotions giving complimentary tickets to all military"
FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. (July 4, 2013) – In honor of Independence Day, three-time world champion boxer Adrien Broner and R&R Promotions are giving one complimentary ticket to Friday's "Independence Explosion" fight card to each military member who presents a military I.D. Broner, one of the sport's youngest superstars, will be appearing at the event as a special guest.
The 10-bout card which is taking place at the Crown Center (1960 Coliseum Dr., Fayetteville, NC 28306) at 7 p.m. is not only featuring some of the top young talent in the sport, but four former U.S. Olympians and two fighters who were members of our nation's armed forces – U.S. Marines Jamel Herring and Jonathon Steele.
Our nation's holiday is not the only inspiration for the giveaway. Since his first USO tour of Kuwait and Iraq in 2011, Broner has held a special admiration for the work our troops do in protecting our country. In part of an attempt to honor them, Broner and Andrew Williams, CEO of R&R Promotions, decided to offer this special giveaway for any member, current or past, of the U.S. military.
As home to Ft. Bragg, the city of Fayetteville is the perfect place for Broner to continue paying homage to the military.
The fight card named "Independence Explosion" features three-time Olympian Rau'shee Warren (5-0, 3 KOs, 13-0 including World Series of Boxing fights) in the main event, 2012 Olympians Dominic Breazeale (5-0, 5 KOs), Jamel Herring (4-0, 2 KOs), 2008 Olympian Raynell Williams (debut), Brandon Bennett (15-0, 7 KOs), and North Carolina's own Lamar Russ (13-0, 7 KOs).
Complimentary tickets can be retrieved at the Crown Center box office. A valid military I.D. must presented at the time of redemption.

I don't see Rutgers, Maryland and PSU as a good fit. In the case of PSU, this is because of my feelings re: the Paterno-Sandusky enablement. I think they should be pariah in college football, period.
On the other hand, I'm a bit inconsistent; I like being able to play "outsiders" like Maryland and Rutgers from time to time.
Still, I realize that there is no possibility of PSU, or the other new members leaving the conference.

Don't forget that one advantage that Harbaugh had his first year over RR and Hoke was solid recruiting from the predecessor to get players suited to a similar style of play.
RR certainly didn't have that, and Hoke had Denard and others at their peak in his first year that made his 11-win season happen.
I agree that Hoke wasn't up to the task of coaching at this level. But I'm pretty sure that RR wasn't satisfied with his team's losses.

With respect, wasn't the Athletc Department already having to fudge the attendance stats for certain games in the recent past to keep that 100K+ streak going?
Yes, with Harbaugh it's easier to fill up the stadium, but seems to me that there should be a useful purpose beyond adding crowd noise to spend a few hundred million bucks, and add to game-day issues. There should perhaps at least be demonstrably higher demand for tickets?
There may be a practical limit to the numbers of fans who'll turn out for games. Whether Michigan/Northern Ohio's population within driving distance will support a bigger stadium with regular turnout above the numbers we're seeing now, is one important question that needs to be addressed.
Then pile on additional parking problems, stadium entry/exit issues, more traffic than A2 can currently handle, and you could have a less pleasant game day experience that might encourage folks to stay home and watch games on TV.
I'd hate to see rows of empty seats at Michigan Stadium on game day, as happened at many games in the 50s and early 60s when I was still being taken by my parents.
So there may be compelling reasons not to do this beyond the tradition of the Big House's configuration, and even beyond whether the view from the seats would be worth the price of admission.

I also lked Milton Berle's TV show more than Red Skelton's. Most of you are too young to know who those guys were.

LONDON (AP) -Spain playmaker Juan Mata scored one goal and set up another as Chelsea handed Arsenal its first loss of the season, winning 2-1 on Saturday to consolidate top spot in the Premier League.
Mata's curling free kick that glanced off Arsenal defender Laurent Koscielny into the net proved to be the winner in the 53rd minute, earning the European champions a fifth win in six league games and dealing a blow to one of their potential rivals for the title.
So solid at the back this season, Arsenal's defensive vulnerability returned at Emirates Stadium, looking unsure at set pieces with Fernando Torres beating Koscielny to another free kick by Mata to give Chelsea the lead in the 20th.
"Defensively, we were not at the level we have to be in a game like this," said Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger, who may regret the decision to play Koscielny ahead of the in-form Per Mertesacker.
The spotlight was also on a center back for Chelsea, with John Terry playing just two days after being banned for four games for racially abusing an opponent in a league game last year.
With the defender contemplating whether to appeal the suspension, he remained available for Chelsea and shrugged off constant jeers from the home fans to deliver a largely composed display.
Terry was fooled by the good movement of Gervinho for Arsenal's equalizer in the 42nd, however. The Ivory Coast international peeled off the former England captain before controlling a cross by Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and slamming an unforgiving close-range finish high into the net, maintaining his improvement this season after being handed the center-forward berth by Wenger.
That was the first goal that Chelsea had conceded in four games but Roberto di Matteo's side held on to secure victory in its toughest test yet this season, proving it has the mettle in defense and creativity up front to challenge the two Manchester clubs for the title.
"I'm very pleased today with our performance," Di Matteo said. "We played against a very good team and we didn't allow Arsenal to get in a rhythm."
Terry ran over to the jubilant Chelsea fans after the final whistle, clapping their raucous support and slapping the badge on his jersey before handing one of his boots to a young boy. Every touch of his was booed but he is used to such abuse.
"I think it was the right choice to pick him today," Di Matteo said. "He showed his leadership qualities and what a good defender he is."
It was Arsenal's first setback of an otherwise encouraging start to the campaign, leaving them seven points behind Chelsea, and the blame for both goals could be apportioned to Koscielny, who allowed Torres to hook his right foot around the France defender to score at the far post.
Koscielny was fortunate not to give away a penalty three minutes later after being sloppily dispossessed by Torres and then possibly nicking the striker's foot as he bore down on goal.
And for Mata's goal, Koscielny dived in to try to clear the set piece, but the ball glanced off his leg into the net and left goalkeeper Vito Mannone stranded.
"I feel we played against a good team but we gave the game away," Wenger said.
After starting sluggishly, Arsenal only really came to life following the introduction of Oxlade-Chamberlain in the 17th after the injury-prone Abou Diaby hobbled off with a thigh strain that Wenger said will rule the France midfielder out for three weeks.
But Chelsea looked dangerous on the break through Torres, Mata and Eden Hazard, and conceded few clear-cut chances. Santi Cazorla, the diminutive playmaker who has been at the center of everything good about Arsenal in its first five games, was often crowded out by combative Chelsea midfielders John Obi Mikel and Ramires while forward Lukas Podolski was quiet all match.
When the opportunities came for the hosts, Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech did well first to claw away Podolski's header in the 59th and then palm aside a deflected effort by Olivier Giroud, Podolski's replacement.
In second-half injury time, Giroud had a great chance to secure a draw for Arsenal but having rounded Cech, he fired into the sidenetting.
"I'm really pleased with the way we played away at the Emirates," Di Matteo said. "We've made a great start to the Premier League. Hopefully we can be there at the end."

|φ29 DNA Polymerase Residue Phe128 of the Highly Conserved (S/T)Lx2h Motif is Required for a Stable and Functional Interaction with the Terminal Protein
|Rodríguez García, Irene; Lázaro, José M.; Salas, Margarita; Vega, Miguel de
|DNA polymerase
Site directed mutagenesis
|Issue Date:
|Journal of Molecular Biology 325(1): 85-97 (2003)
|Bacteriophage φ29 encodes a DNA-dependent DNA polymerase belonging to the eukaryotic-type (family B) subgroup of DNA polymerases that use a protein as primer for initiation of DNA replication. By multiple sequence alignments of DNA polymerases from such a family, we have been able to identify two amino acid residues specifically conserved in the protein-priming subgroup of DNA polymerases, a phenylalanine contained in the (S/T)Lx2h motif, and a glutamate belonging to the Exo III motif. Here, we have studied the functional role of these residues in reactions that are specific for DNA polymerases that use a protein-primed DNA replication mechanism, by site-directed mutagenesis in the corresponding amino acid residues, Phe128 and Glu161 of φ29 DNA polymerase. Mutations introduced at residue Phe128 severely impaired the protein-primed replication capacity of the polymerase, being the interaction with the terminal protein (TP) moderately (mutant F128A) or severely (mutant F128Y) diminished. As a consequence, very few initiation products were obtained, and essentially no transition products were detected. Interestingly, φ29 DNA polymerase mutant F128Y showed a decreased binding affinity for short template DNA molecules. These results, together with the high degree of conservation of Phe128 residue among protein-primed DNA polymerases, suggest a functional role for this amino acid residue in making contacts with the TP during the first steps of genome replication and with DNA in the further replication steps.
