Background: Women older than 30 years are the main beneficiaries of improved cervical cancer screening with human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA testing. The role of vaccination against HPV types 16 and 18, which is recommended routinely for preadolescent girls, is unclear in this age group.
Objective: To assess the health and economic outcomes of HPV vaccination in older U.S. women.
Design: Cost-effectiveness analysis with an empirically calibrated model.
Data Sources: Published literature.
Target Population: U.S. women aged 35 to 45 years.
Time Horizon: Lifetime.
Perspective: Societal.
Intervention: HPV vaccination added to screening strategies that differ by test (cytology or HPV DNA testing), frequency, and start age versus screening alone.
Outcome Measures: Incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (2006 U.S. dollars per quality-adjusted life-year [QALY] gained).
Results of Base-Case Analysis: In the context of annual or biennial screening, HPV vaccination of women aged 35 to 45 years ranged from $116Â 950 to $272Â 350 per QALY for cytology with HPV DNA testing for triage of equivocal results and from $193Â 690 to $381Â 590 per QALY for combined cytology and HPV DNA testing, depending on age and screening frequency.
Results of Sensitivity Analysis: The probability of HPV vaccination being cost-effective for women aged 35 to 45 years was 0% with annual or biennial screening and less than 5% with triennial screening, at thresholds considered good value for money.
Limitation: The natural history of the disease and the efficacy of the vaccine in older women are uncertain.
Conclusion: Given currently available information, the effectiveness of HPV vaccination for women older than 30 years who are screened seems to be small. Compared with current screening that uses sensitive HPV DNA testing, HPV vaccination is associated with less attractive cost-effectiveness ratios in this population than those for other, well-accepted interventions in the United States.
Primary Funding Source: National Cancer Institute, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the American Cancer Society.
Women older than 30 years who participate in the U.S. screening program may get vaccinated or continue with screening only. At the start of the analysis, women may reside in any of the mutually exclusive, collectively exhaustive health states denoted by the boxes. Incidence and progression of HPV infection, CIN 1, and CIN 2,3 depend on age and HPV type. Women with previous HPV infection face reduced risks for subsequent type-specific HPV infection because of natural immunity (dashed arrow). Not all health states and transitions are shown. CIN = cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (grade 1 or grade 2 or 3); HPV = human papillomavirus.
Ratios for each strategy with vaccination are calculated compared with the corresponding screening strategy without vaccination. All ratios are expressed as cost, in 2006 U.S. dollars, per QALY. HPV = human papillomavirus; QALY = quality-adjusted life-year. Top. Ratios for HPV vaccination when screening involves cytology with HPV DNA testing for triage of equivocal results. Bottom. Ratios for HPV vaccination when screening involves a switch to combined cytology and HPV DNA testing after age 30 years.
HPV = human papillomavirus.
CIN = cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (grade 1 or grade 2 or 3); HPV = human papillomavirus; HRo = other (non–HPV-16 or HPV-18) high-risk HPV types.

The article by Kim et al. offers an important contribution to our understanding of the cost implications of HPV control strategies in women over 30(1). It also offers lessons in the uses and potential misuses of cost-effectiveness estimates. The article adopted a societal perspective that many internists would be ill-advised to apply in their clinical practice. For this reason, some of the conclusions drawn by the article could be inapplicable to clinical decision-making. Our role as physicians is to advise our patients how to achieve health outcomes that they value given resource constraints. Physicians cannot ignore cost effectiveness, but given a patient centered perspective it would be a disservice to simply accept and apply the pronouncement that , "HPV vaccine does not represent good value for resources expended."
The paper used nothing more than informal heuristics to propel an assumption that society should not spend more than $100,000 per QALY. It is unlikely that this particular value applies to any particular individual consulting their physician about whether to receive an HPV vaccine. If we assume that individual patients' willingness to pay thresholds are normally distributed around $100,000 per QALY, then half of patients would happily pay out of their pocket for a vaccine that generated a $100,000 QALY and half would not. Our job as internists is to know our patients well enough to enable them to make decisions that are right for them. willingness to pay thresholds are normally distributed around $100,000 per QALY, then half of patients would happily pay out of their pocket for a vaccine that generated a $100,000 QALY and half would not. Our job as internists is to know our patients well enough to enable them to make decisions that are right for them.
There are decisions in health policy that naturally demand a societal decision. These decisions are typically about publicly shared resources, like permissible levels of air pollutants, or appropriate speed limits, where all must share in a common decision. Vaccination decisions can be individually titrated, and there is no compelling reason to deny technology and information about it to those willing to pay for their own vaccine.
There is an unfortunate precedent for mistaking the individual and societal perspective. An influential study in 1995 concluded that the polysaccharide meningococcal vaccine's ability to save lives at $1 million per life saved was not cost-effective(2). As a result, of it being declared "not cost-effective," physicians generally did not even discuss the presence of this vaccine to college-bound teens who were at heightened risk. A generation of youth missed an opportunity. Earlier this decade several states passed laws mandating counseling about the presence of a vaccine (3), it emerged that with physician guidance many patients reached an independent judgment that the benefits of meningococcal vaccine represented good value for their own out of pocket spending.
There is no compelling reason for the US population to be subjected to a one-size fits all decision on whether women over 30 can be protected from HPV with a vaccine. Instead, the results of this paper, can contribute to liberating discussions between doctors and patients on the value of health and how much money to devote to its pursuit.

MSI R9 290 Gaming Review
Up Close
Published: 15th February 2014 | Source: MSI | Price: £367.99 |
Up Close
Demonstrating how strong the MSI Gaming brand has become, we could have guessed what the R9 290 looked like before we saw it. The matte box with the red flashes and Dragon logo looks great, and the Twin Frozr is one of our favourite coolers.
The backplate is well designed with a few cut-outs for solder spots and the MSI logo proudly in place, and facing the right direction.
There is a high fin density to keep the Hawaii GPU cool.
Power is provided by the 8+6 combination that's common to high-end graphics cards, and the outputs are a DisplayPort, an HDMI and two DVIs.

The big problem with the R9 290 was the heat, so does the MSI Twin Frozr unleash the beast?
Continue ReadingQuote
mantle gave a good increase in performance there, especially given the CPU your using.
Only time will tell how much mantle will benefit gamers, lets hope Thief comes to market with full support for ALL GCN GPUs and works in Crossfire unlike BF4 at present.
One thing i will add here, the PCB on this MSI card is reference,so it is watercooling capable (checked by EK here), but also contains some of higher quality components compared to the reference card (MSI military class) and likely could be a higher binned chip.
Definitely worth considering for those water cooling or planning to watercool a 290, especially those who can't watercool immediately considering the stock card's noise levels and throttling. It also has a good looking backplate at stockQuote
My old MSi GTX 560 with the Twin Frozr II cooler, while being fine when it's idle sounds like an aeroplane while gaming.Quote
Hottest I have seen mine go is 74*c and that was during TW2 running round a section where the GPU is at 100% most of the time for a good 30mins.
The MSI one definitely still does a good job though, one thing I did notice though is in the GPU-Z in the review says the MSI gaming has 72 GPixles and 180 GTexels. My Tri-X only has 60 GPixles and 160 GTexeles, GPU-Z may be reading it wrong? Current version is 0.7.7, I noticed the on in the review is version 0.7.4.Quote
Scan lists it as only £10 cheaper than the 780 counterpart though. Wouldn't say it's worth picking up over that (Unless you're a serious AMD fan).Quote
It's a great card though none the less, I probably just got 2 bad apples.Quote
I like it's looks too. It would fit right in on my MSI G45 Gaming motherboard.Quote
MSI R9 290 is one of the BEST R9 series!Quote
Awesome review dude, but people commenting you gotta remember pretty much all AMD cards are terrible deals right now. .
Awesome review dude, but people commenting you gotta remember pretty much all AMD cards are terrible deals right now.
I went with the Gaming series Motherboard and Graphic card combo. This was likely as a result of TTL product placement, I mean positive reviews :P

Name: Diann Dowdy
Age: 40
Education: Received a Bachelor of Science degree in Human Environmental Sciences with concentrations in Child Life and Fine Arts from The University of Alabama, and was awarded a Minor in Business Administration in December of 2000. Graduate of Bob Jones High School, 1991
Experience: "I am a life-long dancer, artist, and thespian. I have 20-plus years of teaching and producing theatrical and dance pieces, shows, and plays for children of all ages. I have directed everything from small scenes performed locally to large productions shown to 1,900 patrons. Extensive theater and dance collegiate coursework at the prestigious Capstone, including being a past member of Dance Alabama! and Theatre Tuscaloosa."
Job title: "President and director, officially. Teacher extraordinaire. But, just like any working mother the list goes on and on ..."
Employer: All Things Theatrical, Inc. in Madison
Number of employees: "It depends on the season and shows, but we are definitely planning on hosting special guest teachers. We will also have experienced theater professionals teaching classes during each season."
Job description: "As the president of All Things Theatrical, Inc. I am in charge of our marketing, public relations, sponsorships and financial decisions. As the director, I am able to create the core framework of our classes, hire well-qualified teachers, choose our plays, productions, and what direction we want to take our company in. Our goal is to be the premier children's theater in North Alabama. Firstly, I believe the way that we do that is by showing children that everyone matters and that no part is too small. Secondly, we introduce them to an art, a craft, drama, comedy, and just maybe they catch the acting bug. Our name comes from my vision of offering ALL things theatrical. In addition to traditional and contemporary acting classes, we also offer Broadway Classic Scene work that mixes acting with music and dance, and the ever-popular Glee Club, which brings in singing."
Best perk: "I love all the creative freedom that children's theater gives me and the chance to share my love with others. I love the twinkle in little ones' eyes when they are on stage – the moment that an older child realizes that they have the power to perform and to move people with just their voices. I am amazed that I get to go to 'work' every day and it never feels like work. I am blessed beyond belief."
Ambition: "I am living it! I just want to grow our family company to introduce theater in all forms and to enrich the lives of our community's children. At a time when our schools' fine arts programs are being cut, I feel that it is necessary to introduce acting to all students. Theater involves everyone and makes everyone feel important. The teamwork needed to run a community theater is paramount and is something that I believe every child should get a chance to experience. That is just one of the reasons that I am doing an outreach program at our Hogan Family YMCA every week with the after school children and teaching one day a week in our satellite location in Cullman."
Best advice received: "I am really bad at following others' advice, perhaps sometimes to a fault. But, what I'd rather say is one of my favorite quotes which sums up how I feel: 'One of the things I learned the hard way was that it doesn't pay to get discouraged. Keeping busy and making optimism a way of life can restore your faith in yourself.'" – Lucile Ball
Best advice to give: "Find what you love and do it with all your heart! And, never accept no for an answer. Make another goal and move on to your next yes."
It's a bad day when: "There's something just not working in a scene and I can't quite put my finger on it. It bothers me relentlessly until I come up with a solution."
It's a good day when: "The ideas and creativity flow and everyone show up for class and have a lot of enthusiasm and works hard."
Role models: "Lucille Ball – She is my favorite comedic actress of all time and was a business-minded, forward-thinking woman in the 1950's in what was a 'man's' world era. Tara Rubin – The only woman on a list of the 10 most powerful directors currently on Broadway. She has directed: 'Billy Elliot,' 'How to Succeed,' 'Jersey Boys,' 'Mamma Mia!,' 'Mary Poppins,' and 'The Producers.' Ms. Rubin started out as a casting associate with Johnson-Liff & Zerman on The Phantom of the Opera, a show she now casts replacements for – showing that no role is too small. And last, but not least, my mother. She has pushed me to succeed in ways that only a mother can."
Working on: "Currently opening. We began our fall semester Oct. 1 in a bright, beautiful space in the Publix Shopping Center on County Line Road in Madison. It has been built to our specifications. I am very excited to be in my hometown of Madison to provide the premier children's theater. We also offer a satellite location in Cullman on Mondays. I believe North Alabama is primed for just this kind of venture. Our holiday show is 'A Seussified Christmas Carol' by Peter Bloedel. Please check out the website at www.AllThingsTheatricalInc.com for information on auditions and show times. Also 'like' us on Facebook at All Things Theatrical, Inc. The theater is a professional member of the Educational Theatre Association."

European Commission Objects to Apple iTunes Business Practices

The EC claims iTunes treats customers unfairly and that record labels are to blame
After a long series of investigations, the European Commission (EC) today decided to formally object to Apple and its iTunes business in European countries on anticompetitive practices. According to the EC, it has sent a Statement of Objections to Apple, indicating that the way Apple does business with its iTunes online store is in violations of EC treaty rules. Additional complaints were sent to major record labels operating in the European Union.
The problem lies in the way that major record labels deal with the iTunes online store, allowing only limited access based on the location of the customer. Prices vary across locations and across borders, and customers in one zone may not be allowed to purchase music that's available in another zone. Worse yet, some customers end up paying higher prices simply because of their geographical location.
European Commission spokesman Jonathan Todd publically stated that the EC
sees the agreement between record labels and Apple as a violation of trade treaties
. "Our current view is that this is an arrangement which is imposed on Apple by the major record companies and we do not see a justification for it." An official statement from the EC indicated that customers were having their credit cards scanned for location information and if for example the customer was located in Belgium, they could only purchase songs designated to Belgium.
The report states, "Apple and major record companies contain territorial sales restrictions which violate Article 81 of the EC Treaty. iTunes verifies consumers' country of residence through their credit card details. For example, in order to buy a music download from the iTunes Belgian on-line store a consumer must use a credit card issued by a bank with an address in Belgium."
An important note in the EC's statement said that while this charge is an indication of treaty violations, it is not a charge of monopolistic practices.
"The Statement of Objections does not allege that Apple is in a dominant market position and is not about Apple's use of its proprietary Digital Rights Management (DRM) to control usage rights for downloads from the iTunes on-line store," concludes the report.
Before the EC sent its formal charge to Apple, the life-style computer company already faced a number of allegations about the iTunes store. Earlier this year, a number of agencies in several European countries
joined forces to threaten legal action towards Apple
if it didn't change the way the iTunes store operated. Groups in Denmark, Germany, France, Norway and Sweden complained that
Apple's DRM format is too restrictive
and did not allow users to play music on players of their choice.
In February of this year, Apple CEO Steve Jobs said that despite the restrictions placed on songs downloaded from the iTunes store,
he would rather see Digital Rights Management (DRM) completely abolished
. "Through the end of 2006, customers purchased a total of 90 million iPods and 2 billion songs from the iTunes store. On average, that's 22 songs purchased from the iTunes store for each iPod ever sold," Jobs said. While it's difficult to ignore that iTunes does effect sales of iPods, consumers have been against DRM-enabled music from the get-go. Even
Microsoft chairman Bill Gates took a stab at DRM
late last year.
With the EC's latest charge on Apple, it will be interesting to see how things shape up between Apple and major record labels. While the RIAA is still going after college students and other end users, the
Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) may be going through some changes
thanks to updated a new FAIR USE act, which calls for reduced restrictions for both consumers and hardware developers. The dynamics between Apple, record labels and government agencies is no doubt a complex one. Despite Apple's troubles,
the iTunes business is still a roaring success

Calm down
The way this issue has turned into politics is beyond this world.
The issue is simple. Every European citizen has the right to buy goods from any european outlet, be it physical or virtual. But, just because I live in Greece I can't log on to another european iTunes Store and buy music or what have you. I only have the choice to use the greek iTunes Store.
Why on earth would anyone think that, by this whole objection thing, that it has anything to do with foreign policy or the right of any European to buy or not from a local store?
RE: Calm down
I find it dangerous due to precedent.
Let's say this time the EU gets its way. Okay, now like a US Supreme Court decision, it becomes legal precedent, making all future issues open-and-closed cases.
In this case it's probably not a big problem for it to be offered in all of the EU states, and that's precisely why the EC probably chose to pick a bone with this particular case. It's not a huge demand so they'll likely get their way.
Fast forward to a future online bank that offers great rates to Eastern Europeans. Now Western Europe wants in on the action, but the bank has no internal experience with western finance laws. Or an insurance company that wants to serve some parts of a market, like auto insurance, but not homeowners, because it doesn't want to or can't afford the extra risk. Or a telecom that wants to serve the inner city because it's profitable, but not the outskirts because it's be financially ruinous. (And trust me, government doesn't care if it's ruinous, Florida is proving that every day these days)
Beyond large efficiency problems, it infringes on property rights; why run a business if the government is going to tell you increasingly how to operate it? Why not let the government run them? That final question is the end-game goal of socialism anyway -- why not indeed?
Perhaps people in Europe don't get it that way due to cultural differences; as an American, I view the property rights of an individuals material assets just as strongly as their biological ones. Therefore, this argument from the EC, "If you offer mp3's to France, why not Greece?" easily can be translated to talking to a hot babe, "If you have sex with Antonio, why not with all of us, or at least me?" Why not? Because she/Apple doesn't want to. That should be the end of it. I'd like to legislate my way in to her pants, too, but that'd be rather socialist of me.
Something to ponder:
When will the world learn that a million men are of no importance compared with one man? [Henry David Thoreau]
"We're Apple. We don't wear suits. We don't even own suits." -- Apple CEO Steve Jobs

—Dr Day has brought up the problem of deafferentation-type pain, which is not frequently seen by surgeons after an operative procedure but is certainly seen rather commonly in pain centers. This type of pain is only relieved by sympathetic block, as Dr Day suggests. It frequently can be diagnosed by the fact that it is often a constant pain and is frequently made worse by light touch or by clothing that rubs on the incision. It is not the type of pain that is associated with deep palpation or that occurs after coughing or sneezing.I should have added, in my brief review of this problem, that when local measures are not effective it is wise for the surgeon to refer the patient to an anesthesiologist who is interested in pain relief problems or to a pain center.

Charges dismissed against Erie man in December shooting
Latonia Pearson said her former boyfriend showed up at her residence in Farrell, in Mercer County, on the morning of Dec. 21 with a gunshot wound to his leg and a story to tell.
She said Kendell C. Foster, 41, told her that "they" went into "this guy's" house in Erie to rob it, but the man was home and pulled out a gun. Foster said he started wrestling with the man when the man shot him, and after another "guy" shot the man he was fighting with, Foster took the gun from the man and shot him in the head, Pearson said.
Pearson, 40, provided the main testimony Wednesday during Foster's preliminary hearing on attempted homicide, aggravated assault and other charges in the shooting of 23-year-old Robert Gore on Dec. 20.
But Pearson could not say whom Foster had reportedly shot, or where the shooting took place.
Foster's lawyer, Erie County Assistant Public Defender Stephen Lagner, argued that without those specific details, which prosecutors had not provided in any of the testimony or evidence presented during the nearly hourlong hearing, the charges against his client should be dismissed.
Erie Fifth Ward District Judge Joseph Lefaiver called Lagner and Erie County Assistant District Attorney Matthew Cullen forward for a brief conversation before announcing the eight criminal charges holding Foster in the Erie County Prison were dismissed.
Cullen said after the hearing that he expects police and prosecutors to refile charges in the case.
The dismissal was the second setback dealt to the Erie police detectives who continue to work the case. The first came earlier Wednesday morning, when prosecutors withdrew attempted homicide and other charges against 32-year-old Dimis Colon-Cruz, one of Foster's two alleged accomplices. Police said that occurred because a witness did not appear for Colon-Cruz's scheduled preliminary hearing that morning.
A third suspect in the robbery and shooting has not been identified or apprehended.
Gore remains hospitalized. His injuries included a gunshot wound to the back of the head, police said.
Gore's roommate, Ledonperignon Eady, opened Foster's hearing Wednesday by testifying that he was in their second-floor apartment at East 27th and Parade streets at about 11:30 or 11:45 p.m. on Dec. 20 when he heard a big "boom" and saw that the apartment door was kicked in.
He said someone ran in, put a gun to his head and told him not to move. He then heard a "pop" coming from Gore's bedroom, and the person holding him let him go and went to the room, Eady testified.
Eady said he heard more pops coming from Gore's bedroom, and he heard someone say, "Go pop the other one." He said he "slid" into a closet and stayed there as the intruders ran out. He said he could not identify them.
Eady said he left the apartment briefly before returning to find Gore on the floor, bleeding and grunting.
Pearson testified that Foster called her at midnight on Dec. 20 or 1 a.m. on Dec. 21, told her that he just went into somebody's house "and it went bad," and said he had been shot. Foster asked Pearson to travel to Erie to get him, but she told him she couldn't, Pearson testified.
Pearson said Foster showed up at her Farrell residence at about 8 a.m. on Dec. 21. He was with a woman who was in a truck, she said.
Under questioning by Cullen, Pearson said Foster and the others had apparently not stolen anything from the place they were robbing. She said she "guessed" there were three people involved in the robbery, and knew only that one of the people with Foster was someone named "Dee."
She said under cross-examination by Lagner that Foster asked her to take the bullet out of his leg, but she wouldn't. She said she took him to a Farrell hospital and called her parole officer.
Foster was taken into police custody while he was being treated at the hospital. He was later turned over to Erie police, who brought him back to the city on the evening of Dec. 21.
Colon-Cruz was apprehended in Erie on Jan. 5.
The home-invasion shooting case is the latest of several violent-crime investigations in Erie to stall in court.
A homicide charge city police filed against Jeff A. Selby, 51, in the November death of his girlfriend, Mary Smith, 51, was dismissed during Selby's Jan. 24 preliminary hearing after his lawyer, Gene Placidi, argued that the manner of Smith's death is undetermined. Erie 3rd Ward District Judge Tom Carney held to trial other charges police filed against Selby, including aggravated assault and unlawful restraint. Prosecutors said they plan to refile the homicide charge.
Lefaiver on Oct. 31 dismissed homicide and other charges that city police had filed against Michael R. James, 29, in the July shooting death of Teverous "Gooney" Williams after the main witness, Christopher Barnes, at first refused to testify against James and then failed to appear for a scheduled court hearing. Prosecutors have said that they would refile charges against James, who was seriously injured in a December shooting in Erie.

Pennsylvania raises permit fees for shale drilling
HARRISBURG -- Pennsylvania is charging higher well-permitting fees to natural gas exploration firms.
A regulation published Friday is the second time state officials have sought to align permitting fees with a Marcellus Shale drilling boom. The Department of Environmental Protection said it expects revenue to increase by $4.7 million a year, or about 40 percent.
It replaces a 5-year-old fee structure that charged more based on well bore length. The new fee is $5,000 for a horizontal well and $4,200 for a vertical well. That's an increase of about $1,800 and $1,300, respectively.
Fees for Pennsylvania's traditional shallow well industry remain the same.
The new money will help pay for new information technology systems.

My topic should really be "The Technic of Teaching Medicine," as this is the only kind of teaching about which I know anything. It should be still further limited, perhaps, to "The Technic of Teaching Pediatrics," as this is the kind of medical teaching that I have chiefly done. The teacher of medicine has an advantage over most teachers in that his students are not only willing but anxious to be taught. It is hard enough to teach even students of this sort. I cannot think of anything more difficult than to teach students who are not interested or who do not wish to learn.
To teach well, a man must like to teach. He must be interested in his teaching and must be willing to sacrifice everything else to it. If a conflict arises between his teaching and his private practice or consultations, he must be willing to let

With 5.7 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter, Derrick Rose would hit a contested floater to give his Chicago Bulls the lead and the victory over the New York Knicks by a final score of 82-81.
Despite Chicago holding a 13-point lead in the second half, New York was able to slowly chip away at the lead with strong outings by Carmelo Anthony and Raymond Felton.
Turnovers were the name of the game for both sides, as the Knicks and Bulls combined to turn the basketball over on 32 occasions, with 18 of those coming from New York.
Neither team shot particularly well either, as the Knicks only hit 36.0 percent of their attempts, while Chicago wasn't much better at 40.8.
There was a clear advantage in the paint for the Bulls, who outscored their opponents 46-24 down low.
This is the Bulls' fifth consecutive win in a home opener, which is a franchise record. It's also their sixth-straight victory over the Knicks.
The Bulls will now travel to Philadelphia on Saturday night to battle the Philadelphia 76ers, while New York hosts the Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday.

As some of you might know I like to talk. They don't like me doing it on the screenshot thread so that is what this is for. You can talk about any thing. If you don't like something about Flight Sim this is the place to say what you don't like and why. If you like something go ahead and say it. If you have a question I will have to say go to that thread, but if you have something to ask about something that someone has said go ahead and ask. If you have a screenshot yet aegean I will have to day go to that third, but yet aegean you want to put one up to show something that you don't like then that is ok with me. Also if there is something that you wish that they would do different say something about it.
Now with all that said I gess I will get this started. I have to say that I like FS9 ALOT and I like how real it can be at times. One of the thing that I like most when I just want to fly around is get in the DC-3. The only thing I don't like is that in the 172 they auto pilot. It's not at the top like in say the 737 but it is in the radio thing on the bottom. Now if what I know the trainer 172 (witches the one in the game) doesn't have auto pilot. Now if they can put it in the 172 I wish that they would put it in the DC-3. I know or at least I think that I know that the DC-3 or C-47s didn't have auto pilot but I don't care, I think if you put it in a little 172 you can out it in something like a DC-3. You could say just trim it and it will be fine. But I'm to lazy to read that thing in the teaching center and if you just do the lessen it doesn't tell you eveything. So all I'm saying in this hole thing is that I wish that they would have put auto pilot in the DC-3 too. If I am wrong about anything here let me know. Now I could be wrong about everything I just said if so let me know.
PS I'm sorry that this has been so long.

InVivo Therapeutics is teaming up with the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine's Miami Project to Cure Paralysis to develop new treatments for spinal cord injuries (SCIs) that combine the organizations' respective biopolymer scaffolds and cellular therapies. The Miami Project's IND-pending Schwann cell platform will be leveraged in the alliance. InVivo and the Miami Project will jointly own resulting IP, and InVivo will retain the right of first offer to license and commercialize resulting products worldwide.
Invivo's biopolymer scaffolds are designed to mimic properties of the extracellular matrix within the spinal cord and so facilitate proliferation and survival of implanted cells. The firm claims preclinical trials have demonstrated that implanting the resulting biopolymer devices either alone, combined with drugs, or seeded with human neural cells, promotes post-SCI neural survival and minimizes scarring. An IND filing with FDA to start trials with the scaffolds in an acute SCI setting is imminent, according to Invivo.
"To date, InVivo has been focused primarily on acute spinal cord injury research," comments Frank Reynolds, InVivo CEO. "This partnership will allow us to advance these technologies to the chronic spinal cord injury population."
The Miami Project says trials have demonstrated that Schwann cell transplantation promotes axonal regeneration and remyelination following SCI in animals. When combined with other cells or drugs, the implanted Schwann cells also help minimize damage, remyelinate, and promote recovery of motor function. The organization projects submitting an IND application to FDA later this year to enable the start of clinical trials.
"InVivo's biopolymer scaffoldings are novel tissue-engineering solutions that may serve to improve functional recovery and promote the proliferation and survival of cellular therapies such as Schwann cells at the site of injury," adds W. Dalton Dietrich, III, Ph.D., The Miami Project's scientific director. "We see significant potential in the natural synergies from combining these treatment approaches."
InVivo's approach to treating SCIs focuses on protecting the spinal cord and preventing secondary injury, rather than on regeneration. The resulting platform technologies are designed to minimizing tissue damage sustained following acute injury and promote neural plasticity of the spared healthy tissue, which may result in full or partial functional recovery.
The firm aims to exploit its technologies to develop three implantable or injectable product types: a biocompatible polymer scaffolding device to treat acute wound SCI, a biocompatible hydrogel for local controlled release of methylprednisolone to treat acute SCI, and a biocompatible scaffolding device seeded with autologous human neural stem cells to treat acute and chronic SCI.

The Elkins Rotary Club awarded a total of $5,500 in grants to local classroom instructors and libraries Monday, funding five school projects and three library wishes.
David Boyles, health instructor at Elkins Middle School, asked Rotary members to fund his program to purchase 30 heart rate monitors. He was awarded $1,650 for the project.
"I am happy to get his award to have these monitors to use in the health classes to help teach target heart rate calculations," Boyles said. "This helps the students get their heart rate up to its target rate and experience that."

Local schools and libraries receive grant money Monday from the Elkins Rotary Club for special projects. Classroom teachers and librarians accepting the funds include, front, from left, Rocky Nestor, Harman School; Stacie Friddle, Elkins Third Ward Elementary; Hilary Ramsey, Tygarts Valley Middle School; and Cynthia Bodkin, North Elementary School; and, back row, Leesa Harris, Elkins Rotary Club president; David Boyles, Elkins Middle School; and Audrey Taylor, Elkins-Randolph County Public Library.
Boyles said the monitors will be used in the physical education classes, as well as for track, cross country and "Girls On the Run."
"I am very grateful to be able to accept this check," Boyles said.
A check for $750 was presented to North Elementary School Principal Cynthia Bodkin for the project, "Come Over To Our Pad."
"I was able to buy some iPads for our teachers and we are going to use the money you have given us to buy cases for them because we want to get all of the technology in the hands of the children," Bodkin said. "And so when they have that iPad and they drop it, and they are going to drop it, it will be safe.
"Also we are going to get iTunes cards to the teachers so they can focus into what skills the students need, and be able to buy the apps for those."
Bodkin also offered thanks to Rotary members for the grant.
"Technology is the way to go these days," Bodkin said. "They are starting at a very young age, and they can probably do it better than most of us."
Hilary Ramsey, technology integration specialist at Tygarts Valley Middle School, accepted a grant for $460.
"I am excited and thankful for the opportunity from you guys," Ramsey said. "We are going to purchase a camera and microphone to begin a daily news broadcast that will be televised throughout our schools.
"This is something that bigger schools in bigger areas in West Virginia have been doing for a while and it is something I have been wanting to do at Tygarts Valley for a while. This is a great opportunity for our students to explore new technology by using these to learn broadcast journalism and video production."
Stacie Friddle, a fourth-grade instructor at Third Ward Elementary School, accepted a check for $900.
"I wrote the grant to get science equipment to get into our student's hands so we can have more hands-on activities," Friddle said. "Our science equipment and books are pretty old, and the direction we are moving is more hands-on."
Rocky Nestor, social studies instructor at Harman School, received a $500 grant for his project.
"For years, the English department and I have worked together so we can be more cross-curricular," said Nestor. "We have always had trouble coming up with the extra money for a classroom set of novels, and with the new common core requirements coming up, they want us to do non-fiction things and those are more expensive books."
The Elkins-Randolph County Public Library director Audrey Taylor received $500.
"I want to thank you all for supporting us," Taylor said. "The grant is going to buy non-fiction books, mainly medical and computer books, things that go out of date really fast. We may buy a few craft books. Without your support, I could not keep the library moving forward."
A grant for $550 was made to Valley Head Library for their summer program, "Digging Into Reading," and $600 to the Davis & Elkins College Library Children's Collection.
"Judith Smith writes this grant each year for the children's collection at the college," D&E representative Karen Wilmoth said in thanking the club. "It's housed in the Booth Library and is available to the general public, but they also use it in the education department."

Shop beyond Black Friday specials
For many bargain hunters, November brings the most sacred of shopping holidays -- Black Friday.
While there are many deals to be dealt on that day, there are also items not traditionally connected to Black Friday that can be had at substantial savings.
- Cookware: "One of the first good items to buy in November that isn't necessarily tied to Black Friday is cookware," said Lindsay Sakraida, features director for www.Dealnews.com, a consumer website.
Cookware, cutlery sets, dining sets and small appliances are all expected to hit the lowest prices of the year in November.
- Hardware: Expect substantial savings on tools at stores such as Home Depot, Sakraida says. The discounts may not be as deep as they were several years ago, but you will still find some good markdowns.
- Free turkeys: "A lot of grocery stores will offer a free turkey if you reach a minimum purchase," Sakraida said. She spotted one store that gave turkeys to anyone spending at least $400 in one month, which isn't much if you do your regular grocery shopping at that store, she said.
- Wedding dresses: It is also possible to get a well-priced wedding dress this month because sales are slow and boutiques are willing to negotiate, Sakraida said.
But of course, the moment many shoppers wait for in November is Black Friday and some deals will not disappoint.
- Televisions: Shoppers will see the best prices on televisions -- a frequent Black Friday doorbuster -- from third-tier manufacturers such as Westinghouse, Sakraida said. Upscale brands likely will have better discounts in the first quarter of the new year.
- Laptops/tablets: Laptops will also be available for bargain prices, Sakraida said, but these will be basic dual-core systems that could fall as low as $179 this month. Higher-end models will carry the best discounts in coming months.
Even Apple offers a Black Friday discount, but at a mere 5 to 10 percent, it isn't that great, Sakraida said. However, the iPad2, which could drop to a low of $299, may have the best promotions of any tablets on Black Friday.
- Toys: "The deals on toys are pretty good," Sakraida said. Even the newest toys might be marked down to 50 percent off around Black Friday. Video games released earlier in the year are up to 75 percent off on Black Friday, she said.
But overall, with toys, it may pay to wait. "If you are not in a rush and you wait until December, you can get a bit of a better deal," Sakraida said.

Not sure if Im in the right "category". Need help. Have 25
Resolved Question:
Not sure if I'm in the right "category". Need help. Have 25 year old daughter that was raped her fresman year in college. She had multiple free rides to college based on her grades and she was the "talent" of the rodeo team. She went to State/Nationals many times. She was the "golden child", until the rate. She would not let us press charges, she would not go to counseling....she got into drugs...we are raising her 3 year old grandbaby (who is a babydoll)...my daughter has been arrested in 2002 that I bailed her out. No thank you, XXXXX XXXXX with the "bad crowd" in another town. Scum. Sorry, but that is what they are. She was picked up stealing hot dogs to survive. City sentencing. Taken care of. Then in September she was picked up with another two guys in her vehicle and drug/paraphanlia found in her purse and on them. She "denies" it was her. However, she had a court date April 17, 2012 that she missed because she was picked up in a stolen pick-up. This charge has been dropped as the officer wrote down something wrong in the license. NOT stolen. But while she was there, she missed court date and the bondsman "surrendered" her bond and was picked up on it. Doubling her bond. She has been staying around Casino's that are known for meth users/meth sales and where the people will actually sleep 2-3 days eating food on the tables that people leave. She is 25. Will not admit her being around these people she is hanging around are "wrong" for her. I checked witht he bondsman and most of them have been known/charged with drugs use or sales. I want her to get help. We have been supporting her with room/board until a month ago that we finally cut it off. She has refused many times to come home, swears she's not using and just wants to "get out to go back to worK". She is in a horrible county jail that is large and known for the officers (has been in the newspaper) for their cruely. I have no problem letting her wake up to what she's doing in jail..but I don't want her hurt by officers. She keeps calling for bond money, cries and then gets upset at the treatment and then gets mad because we're not immediately posting bond. She say's "fine, just let m know you're going to let me rot in here and I'll never never call your house again"....I don't want to lose her. We have her daughter (Temporary Custody), but I don't want her in the same crowd. Don't know what to do. Don't have the money. I clean for a living and I've cleaned a lot of "toilets" for her and I'm old and tired, but I love my daughter. Suggestions?

A few things come to mind with your situation. First, it is the typical drug addict story and the trail of mess it leaves loves ones. You are left picking up the pieces. Second, is that she is a drug user and IS the bad crowd. Third, you are powerless. You have already kicked her out and hopefully you do not give her one cent. By having her stay with you and giving her money; this is called enabling, and it doesn't work. She will not get help unless she is court-ordered to. And, more than likely, it will take about ten times in treatment for it to work. That is the average. So, You take care of your grandaughter, unfortunately this burden was placed on you. Push for full custody. Your grandaughter needs a stable individual in her life, and it won't be her mother for a long time, if ever. Don't spend one minute worrying about your daughter. It is very sad to say, but she has been gone a long time. The more you worry about her, the less focus you put on your grandaughter. So, move forward with your life without your daughter in the equation and maybe one day she will straighten up.Good luck to you. If you have anything else you need please let me know. I work with this type of issue all the time.

Will she hates up forever? Leave our life forever? Also, afraid if she gets out she might "take off" with grandbaby whome we have co-custody with her never do well father (yes, they were quite a team..but in Texas, if there is a parent...he was gone for oever a year and a half "doing his own thing" never providing emotion or financial support..anyway, the "father" has rights..Grandparents DO NOT. He is abusive,, but just inside the law and we can't seem to do anything about it. We won Temporary Custody in Oklahoma where we live, but since they were divorced in Texas, the Texas Judge pulled the jurisdiction back. The father didn't want her back, the girlfriend from Match.com did. They just struck two horiziontol oil wells (LOTS of money...the grandparents anyway). None of that side wanted anything to do with this baby until the "girlfriend" of her father WANTED her...We only have "standing" in Texas. Makes no sense with all the grandparents raising children now a days. Anyway, I don't want to lose my 25 year olds love......

She may very well hate you forever. But you have to remember that it is the addict talking and not your daughter. She will probably try to keep getting things from you so she won't go away. You just need to stand firm in your stance. Don't let her see the child, unless court ordered. And definitely don't let her visit unsupervised. Not even phone conversations.

If we turn her out of our life until she straightens out, how does she do anything good if she has no job, conviction and no vehicle. Without us helping won't she get deeper into the drug world. That is why we've kept a roof over her head and close to where she could walk to work. She was working part time. I just don't know how she survives and is expected to go down a better path when she has no way to get there..

Gainward Phantom GTX570 Review
Introduction and Technical Specifications
Published: 17th January 2011 | Source: Gainward | Price: TBC |
The GTX570 has been one of the big surprises of recent times, fixing all the issues of the original Fermi nVidia cards and performing incredibly well for the reasonable price charged. With a good chip you can expect to overclock it up to stock GTX580 speeds.
Unquestionably it's the card we'd recommend as the major player on the market at the moment.
Gainward have been producing graphics cards for a very long time. Indeed your authors first upgrade after the Voodoo 2 and Riva TNT days was to a Gainward model.
The most famous of the Gainward series is unquestionably the Golden Sample labelled cards which come with a good factory overclock and always managed to go further still.
Today however we have a new model from them labelled the Phantom. The surprise being that rather than concentrate on pushing the Silicon as hard as possible they've brought us a very different looking cooling solution indeed and only overclocked the GPU mildly.
Technical Specifications
A quick look at the specifications shows that the apart from the 18MHz GPU overclock the Gainward Phantom is very much a standard card.
|Product Name :
|Gainward GeForce® GTX 570 1280MB "Phantom"
|GeForce GTX 570
|GPU Clockspeed :
|750 Mhz
|Memory :
|1280MB GDDR5 (320 bits)
|Memory Clockspeed :
|1950 Mhz
|Pixels per clock (peak) :
|Bandwidth :
|156 GB/s
|Ramdac :
|400 MHz
|Bus :
|PCI-Express 2.0
|Cooling :
|2.5-Slot/Three Fans cooler
|Video-Features :
|Connectivity :
|Dual DVI-I, DisplayPort
Of course the cooler is the real selling point of this, so let's move on and take a look at that.

nice review again Bryan Quote
Now that is one fine looking card, shame it takes up 3 PCI slots, so I don't think you'll be able to run it in 16x/16x SLI on the UD-7.
What does bryan mean by less standard ways of increasing the voltage? Does it work for the gtx580
Some cards dont have Voltage tweaks enabled in the back end bios of the cards, but there are ways around it. We dont normally touch these in reviews but both thought we would find out how far the card would go if we did.
How do you bypass that? Maybe you could make a guide or something?
Anyway, good looking card but the performance is somewhat disappointing. I had higher hopes for the 570 considering its price.Quote
Would make a tastey silent addition to the D14 i have on the way.Quote
If this card ends up costing much more than the ref model then there is no point in buying it.. Your card will run cooler but will dump all the hot air in to your case. The card looks good, but when installed, all you can see through a window is the black edge and Gold Gainward name.
With no voltage tweakage allowed by the bios and no meaningful factory overclock this card seems a bit poo to me.
People go on about waiting for the non ref designs for cooler cards to allow a little more overclocking headroom but this doesn't offer anything like that and clocks less than the ref card for what I expect will be a price premium. It might be quieter, but my 570 runs as good as silent.. My PSU is louder.
Good review as always guys.. Just a shame Gainward didn't put a better version of the bios on the card with higher clocks and some voltage allowance.
Edit: Just finished watching the video.. I'll take some of that back as if you can edit it in the beta of Afterburner then that's just as easy as opening any other software to do it.
Out of curiosity, what was the max Afterburner allowed on the voltage? 1.1v?Quote
Inquiring minds want to know...... Quote
So it begs the question The GTX570 or the ATI 6970?
Inquiring minds want to know......
unless this is a lie which it could be.Quote
So it begs the question The GTX570 or the ATI 6970?

If you're going to go with two cards or more 6970, since it scales better. But for just a single card 570 all the way.
You can also remove the price TBC
unless this is a lie which it could be.
Wouldn't necessarily trust them as they always seems to quote low to get the traffic through Google shopping searches then when you click check stock, they are 80% of the time out of stock.
Ahh fair enough.. £30 premium for the cooler which isn't bad I guess if it actually helped.
3gb 580 version looks like a beastQuote
On 100% fan speed, it sounds like an hair dryer Quote
I have one of these. It's alright, unlocking voltages can be done with the new afterburner beta.

My peculiar nutrition glossary and shopping list
I'm a good cook too and I enjoy cooking. Eating out does suck when trying to find something not loaded with gluten and rancid oils. A couple of bigger cities close to where I live have some restaurants that offer grass-fed, pastured meats and organic local produce. My city doesn't. :/ So I really enjoy eating out when I go out of town but not so much in my home town.
OP: I think you need to change your definition of 'restaurant'.
We just went out to dinner this week for date night. Started with an antipasto platter (piled high with camerbert cheese, feta cheese, salami, olives, capers, gherkins, onion chutney, sundried tomatoes plus other things I don't even know the name of). It also had ciabatta bread, but we just left that on the side. Then I had duck confit while she had a steak.
Find good restaurants and make a note of them.
Disclaimer: I eat 'meat and vegetables' ala Primal, although I don't agree with the carb curve. I like Perfect Health Diet and WAPF Lactofermentation a lot.

I HATE eating out! HATE IT!!! Ha Ha! I will only eat out if it's Japanese or Greek/Med food! That's it. I love my own cooking. I get excited to eat it. lol!
I love eating out if I know what I'm getting and enjoy it. I study web sites and menus and reviews, then I know what to expect. I don't bother with places that I know won't meet my criteria for enjoyable.

It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men. - Samuel Adams
I agree! There really isn't any point going to most restaurants.
Even with steakhouses... I have a good butcher shop that sells grassfed dry-aged ribeye and porterhouse steaks for 1/2-1/3 the price of a CAFO non-dry aged steak costs at a decent steakhouse. I also have an amazing fish market nearby with sushi-grade salmon. I can make a variety of Chinese food and some Thai/Indian curries as well. My bacon fried rice = the best. (Not a daily or even weekly indulgence of course).
I mostly just go to restaurants for the experience (ie. dates, special events, etc.) rather than for the food.

These days, with GoPro cameras, cheap laptops, and YouTube, almost anyone can be a filmmaker. But to produce a high-quality film worth worldwide attention, it takes a lot of work.
Three filmmakers in South Lake Tahoe have been grinding away at different projects, each with their own subject and technique.
Photographer Ian Ruhter and South Lake Tahoe resident Lane Power recently released their short documentary "Silver & Light," which chronicles Ruhter's efforts to create the largest photos ever made using the early development technique known as the Collodion wet plate process.
The 10-minute video has gone viral and had nearly 300,000 views by Thursday.
"It's been crazy," Ruhter said. "We've gotten calls from TV producers in L.A."
"I think people are responding to it because everyone wants to follow their dreams," he added.
Ruhter and Power, along with other helpers spent nearly a year filming and editing the project. So far, the published video has caught the attention of ESPN, theblaze.com and numerous photo blogs. The Santa Barbara Museum of Modern Art has offered to buy the wet plate prints Ruhter is shown making in the film, he said.
Filmmaker Mike Wier is midway through his latest project, an environmental sports documentary titled "Cali Rush."
The full-length movie turns the lens on athletes who, as Wier puts it, seek a deeper appreciation of nature through outdoor activities. For the flick, Wier has filmed surfing, whitewater rafting, snowboarding, flyfishing and a handful of other sports. He's currently seeking funding through Kickstarter.com.
Wier has produced several other films, including flyfishing documentaries Soul Fish 1 and 2 and a short about the effort to preserve the Mokelumne River. His favorite subject to shoot is wildlife, he said.
"It's like hunting. You've got to get close to them, to be stealthy," Wier said. "Instead of killing them, you're capturing a piece of their personality. That helps people understand them and want to protect them."
Anthony Cupaiuolo of First Tracks Productions has been busy producing a variety of short videos for organizations and agencies ranging from the Lake Tahoe Visitors Authority to SkiDUCK and Burton Snowboards.
"It's been fun," Cupaiuolo said. "I've gotten a chance to showcase the area and show people some stuff they've never seen before."
Cupaiuolo's shots of skiing and snowboarding have been featured in Warren Miller productions and the Ski Channel. After 11 years of making films, he's still content with the Lake Tahoe area.
"The likelihood of making it big and rich in a mountain town is pretty small," he said. "But, honestly, I'd rather live here and make the content we're making than move to L.A."
After moving to Southern California, Ruhter returned to the area to film and edit "Silver & Light" with Power.
"I had a tremendous amount of support in Lake Tahoe," he said.
