My nurse practicioner told me that some of my daughter's symptoms sounded like they could be reflux. She immediately put her on Reglan (or metoclopramide), ans told me their were no side effects. I've been reading up on it and found that their are side effects, some souning pretty severe. I was wondering if this is a common practice to put a 2 month old on Reglan right away wthout trying anything lighter first.
My son is almost thirteen months now and was on Reglan in the beginning for about seven weeks. Personally, I highly discourage using it. It made my son miserable and he did get side effects such as twitching and tongue thrusting. They stopped when we took him off the Reglan. I can also tell you that it made his stomach cramp horribly. He was a new baby as soon as we took him off. Also, his symptoms were no different when he came off so it wasn't doing anything anyway.
How bad is your daughter's reflux? I just ask because I thought Jake's was worse than it was. I can say that now looking back. I switched to hypoallergenic formula since we suspected a milk allergy and thickened with simply thick. It made a huge difference.
Best of luck to you.
I've been reading more and more that Reglan is just no good! a l;ot of parents on MANY different sites have the same sentiments as you. I've decided to stop giving it to her.
I think her reflux is on the mild side, I'm not sure. My biggest concern is that she will spontaneously start to choke and struggle, (very briefly), with breathing as if some acid or spit came up and she tried to swallow it down, but it went down the wrong pipe. I worry that that isn't normal. Did your son do something like that? I hope he's doing well
My baby did choke and stop breathing and I DON"T want to give him this medication, but the doctor told me I had no choice. I feel helpless. I can not go through that again, so I continue to give him the meds because I don't know whatelse to do. The doctors say he's too small to be on prevacid, and he just has to grow out of it. So these are my options and they s u c k, and I'm miserable. If your lo's reflux is mild than you might be ok not giving it to her. My son's reflux was mild too but it got worse and now it's labeled as severe. All I know is that I hate reflux.
Well, if it makes you feel any better, (since you have to give it to your baby anyway), every person I've talked to in the medical field has reassured me that Reglan isn't that bad. i called a nurse helpline, talked to the Doctor and Nurse Practitioner, and two different pharmicists. It's really weird to get two totally diff opinions on this drug. The parents who have given it to their children and the people in the medical field. ISince I still have a choice, I chose to stick with the experience of other people on this site. I asked my Doc. for Prevacid and she prescribed it. However, it's not covered by my insurance so I have to pay out of pocket. I hate reflux too it's really stressing me out. That must be one of the scariest experiences EVER for you to see your baby not breathing. How old is your baby? I wish you luck, and hope your baby's reflux goes away REALLY soon.
My 2 month old was just diagnosed with moderate GERD and prescribed Zantac and Reglan, which he started Tuesday night. I can tell you that in the past day and a half he has been miserable, cranky, screaming as if in pain (worse than the reflux) and very difficult to get to sleep. About an hour ago he wouldn't even let me hold him, he just wanted to be put down on his back and left alone. I'm taking him off the Reglan and calling his ped, since these symptoms only started right after taking the meds.
My daughter is 13 months old and has been diagnosed with severe reflux. She did not show symptoms until she was 8 months old (very rare), but has persistent cough, has trouble breathing and has stopped breathing and turned blue a few times!, and consistently throws up. She has continued to lose weight over the past few months and is down to her 6 month weight - 17 pounds 12 oz. It has been very scary. Her doc just prescribed reglan and prevacid. She was on pepcid and zantac before which were no good. She has been doing very well on the reglan and since starting has not thrown up. She has a food motility issue so this gets the food through the stomach faster so there is less chance of it coming back up. So, all that to say ,my experience has been positive, and though she may experience a few side effects, they are better than the constant throwing up. We are very close to having a feeding tube put in so any medication is worth a shot at this point. Hopefully some of this is helpful!! Good luck with your babies!
My baby is 6 months old and has been on Axid and Reglan since he was 2 weeks old. His reflux has gotten much worse and they have increased both these medications as well. He was fussy and aspirating on his milk due to the reflux adn it was causing him to be fussy, rattle in his chest, and choking as well. We had a swallow study done, and now we have to thicking his bottles to a nectar consistency. That is 12 tsp of rice per 6oz bottle...very thick. (we can also use simply thick or thick-it) The weight of the rice actually seems to help more with reflux than the Simply Thick thickener.
We are going to he Ped tomorrow to discuss stopping the Reglan as we are too scared of the side effects. I would rather have a fussy baby and deal with the vomit, that to have my child diagnosed with TD or any of the other serious permanent side-effects!
After reading some of you guys posts...with the choking, you might want to talk to your Ped about a swallow study. After we had that and found out what consistency he had to drink at...the choking STOPED!!!!
My son is 6 months old and started on Axid at 2 months which did nothing, then they finally switched him to prevacid at 4 mo. It finally got a lot better and he was able to sleep at night however, he still vomits a ton b/c prevacid only neutralizes the acid, it doesn not stop the vomit. He gets a little frustrated spitting up all the time as do I!!! So at his 6 mo check up yesterday, the doctor prescribed Reglan. Oh my goodness, first, I should have waited til the next morning to give it him. Because, I gave it to him right before bed at 6 pm he got 0.7 ml (supposed to get that every 6 hours). He was awake from then until 3:30 am restless, crying, playing, figity, all over his crib. He maybe slept 2 or 3 15 mintue increments in that whoe time! Finally at 3:30 I got him to fall asleep by holding him and rocking him and giving him the paci! He slept until 5:30 and then we did it all over again utnil he fell asleep at 6:10am-8:30 am. This medicine made him a insomniac in my opinion and I am not going to give it to him again. I just got him to sleep through the night with some sleep training and taking his sleep prop away....the paci....and now it is like we are going to be back to square one b/c today he has needed me, paci, rocking, etc to even take a 20 mintue nap. Then he was awake again. I hope this gets out of his system soon and I am just going to deal with the excessive spit up and glad the prevacid seems to help him not be as uncomfortable!!
Reglan is a horrible medicine and I don't know why they give it to babies. My son was put on it when he was about 2-3 months along with Axid but I took him off it very quickly because he started developing the awful side effects. He did the choking can't breathe thing too and scared me to death. But they CAN have Axid at that age and it did help him some. He wound up on Prevacid, which he is still on at 20 months...they don't all grow out of it. roc004- Sounds to me like your Dr needs a swift kick.
LOL...I wish I could of given him a swift kick believe me. Since then I have found a new GI who has put him on prevacid and I must say it has been live changing. He no longer suffers. He's a very happy baby now. We also had a swallow study done and they changed the ratio of cereal to formula and that also has made a huge difference. Life is good again!!!

Goose Fight
[ Click photo to enlarge ] | Add To "My Gallery" | Make this photo your desktop wallpaper
It was a snowy day and I was bored. Winter was almost over and spring hadn't yet sprung – it was brown and boring. The nature photographer's doldrums.
Oh well, I needed out get out so I figured I'd check out the Magee Marsh Wildlife Area and see if there was anything interesting going on. 45 minutes later I was there – and as I feared, pretty much no action. As I drove through I noticed some geese – better then coming home with an empty memory card, right?
I pulled over, shot a couple photos, and just sat there watching. As I put the camera back up to my eye for another snap, another goose decided to break up the fun! The other two were not pleased – but you can see that just by looking at the photo!
At any rate, it just goes to show you – the most important part of any kind of nature photography is simply making time to get out and be there – you never know what you're gonna get!
About Our Prints....
I currently sell individual prints only. Each image is custom printed in house by me on our commercial grade inkjet printer. Each print is individually inspected and carefully packaged for shipment.
Please note that if you'd like another type of print (canvas for example) or another frame style, we can certainly accommodate you, just use the contact us page and we'll customize the artwork to make it perfect for your home.
(Note - we are no longer offering framed prints. The potential for damage in transit was very high and the shipping for large framed prints was outrageous, sometimes costing over $100 for larger pieces. Additionally, we've found our clients seem happier when they can work with their own local framing shop.)
Our framed prints are guaranteed for as long as you own them against wear, fading, or deterioration. Loose prints are also guaranteed for as long as you own them provided you have them framed under glass using archival materials. We want you to LOVE your prints, so we offer a refund as long as the print or framed print is returned in like new condition within 30 days.
All prints have a signature in the corner, usually the lower right hand when possible.
Delivery time varies and depends on a number of factors, but we always strive to get your prints delivered to you as quickly as possible. I personally inspect each and every piece before it leaves our building. If I'm out of town taking more photos, it can cause a delay, but a good rule of thumb is that a loose print will ship within 2 weeks and a framed print within 3 weeks. That time is significantly shorter if I'm in town at the time the order is placed. If you need a print done by a certain date, you can contact me and I'll be happy to give you an estimated delivery date.
We are now offering quantity discounts if you are interested in two or more pieces. Simply contact me with the sizes and names of the images you are interested in and I will be happy to get you a quote. The more pieces you order, the better the discount.
Thanks for your interest!

Lawyer Mark Goldman May Have Helped Launch Retaliatory Case Against County Supervisor Don Stapley, Report Says
Andrew Thomas, Lisa Aubuchon and Rachel Alexander, all late of the Maricopa County Attorney's Office, were the key figures in a damning 76-page disciplinary report released yesterday.
They're the ones who stand to lose their law licenses. But if you just scanned the report by out-of-state investigator John Gleason, you might have missed a few interesting guest appearances.
For instance, the report prominently mentioned Sheriff Joe Arpaio and his top aide, David Hendershott. According to a deputy, the report says, Hendershott claimed at a December 8, 2009 meeting that Arpaio personally came up with the idea of charging Superior Court Judge Gary Donahoe with bribery -- a charge they knew was bogus due to the complete lack of evidence.
A minor, but notable character in the report is local lawyer Mark Goldman, who until recently worked for the Wilenchik Bartness firm. Goldman is a former deputy county attorney who apparently worked on the early (and highly questionable) investigation of County Supervisor Don Stapley.

The report (click here for a PDF copy) concludes that Thomas, Aubuchon and possibly some folks over at the Sheriff's Office simply decided one day to begin researching possible crimes committed by Stapley, a political opponent of Arpaio and Thomas.
Someone, probably Aubuchon, then began pulling public records from the Internet about Stapley that would later be used to obtain a criminal indictment.
If Aubuchon didn't initiate the investigation herself, than Goldman "likely" did, the report says.
As we covered in our November 26, 2009, article about the investigations into Stapley, Aubuchon met with sheriff's deputies in May of 2008 and claimed she'd received a tip of potential wrongdoing. The sheriff's report we saw last year stated the investigation began after that -- and now we know that's not true. It started in 2007.
Goldman attended meetings about alleged corruption in the county, (during which Stapley's name presumably came up) in 2007 and had been "handing out information about Stapley at one of those meetings."
Investigator Gleason wrote in his report that:
Chief Hendershott of the Sheriffs Office asked Sgt. Brandon Luth of the Sheriff's Office to start looking at Stapley in January 2007, but to keep it confidential.
Aubuchon, if not another deputy county attorney, began in January 2007 to research Stapley on the Internet.
If she did not initiate this investigation herself, then it is likely that former deputy county attorney Mark Goldman did so.
It's unclear if the info on Stapley that Goldman reportedly handed out at the ironically named "anti-corruption" task force meetings was stuff he'd dug up himself, or pages from Aubuchon's printer.
Stapley, as you probably know, was ultimately indicted on 118 counts. (Most of which were later thrown out. A few remain on appeal.)
In an e-mail to New Times, Goldman claims he has "no recollection" of handing out material about Stapley at the meetings. He also says he "did not initiate or help to initiate" any investigations at the county attorney's office, and that he knew "nothing whatsoever" of any investigation of Stapley in 2007.
His explanations fall short, as far as we're concerned, but Goldman would not respond to follow-up questions via e-mail.
Goldman also worked for the legal team that was defending Lisa Aubuchon for a time -- the same team that hired private investigators to tail John Gleason while he was in town and investigating on behalf of the Arizona Supreme Court.
Now Gleason's on Aubuchon's tail. And, to a smaller extent, Goldman's.

1. He cut taxes.
The Kennedy tax cuts, passed by the House in September 1963 and by the Senate after Kennedy's death, cut the top individual income tax rate to 70% from 91% (Kennedy had wanted the income tax rate lowered to 65% and the long-term capital gains rate cut to 19.5% from 25).
2. He told a liberal Harvard economics professor to "shut up" when he opposed Kennedy's tax cuts.
He told John Kenneth Galbraith to shut up. John Kenneth Galbraith, the 6-foot, eight-inch tall liberal Keynesian Harvard economics professor, opposed the Kennedy tax cuts, preferring increased government spending instead. As Galbraith described it, Kennedy finally lost patience: "The president told me to shut up about my opposition to tax cuts."
3. He said Al Gore's dad was a "son of a bitch."
Al Gore Sr., the father of Bill Clinton's vice president, was a Democratic senator from Tennessee who opposed the Kennedy tax cuts as a bonanza for "fat cats." Kennedy described Gore as a "son of a bitch."
4. He favored free trade.
Kennedy's highest priority with Congress in 1962 was trade negotiation authority, which gave him power to negotiate tariff reductions. Opposing taxes on goods imported from overseas, he sounded like a member of the Tea Party: "When the people of Boston in 1773 threw cargoes of tea into the harbor, the American Revolution was in effect underway."
5. He was really, REALLY anti-Communist.
Asked by one journalist why he was pressing for a perjury charge against a labor leader, he said the man had led "a commie strike." Richard Nixon recalled in his memoir that during the 1960 presidential debates, "Kennedy conveyed the image — to 60 million people — that he was tougher on Castro and communism than I was." At the Mormon Tabernacle in 1960, Kennedy said, "The enemy is the communist system itself — implacable, insatiable, unceasing in its drive for world domination." And at Berlin in 1963, Kennedy said, "There are some who say in Europe and elsewhere we can work with the Communists. Let them come to Berlin."
6. He invaded, then blockaded Cuba.
Kennedy OK'd the Bay of Pigs invasion, backing Cuban rebels in their attempt to dislodge the Communist Fidel Castro. When that failed and the Soviets later sent nuclear missiles to Cuba, Kennedy disregarded the counsel of dovish advisers who told him to ignore the weapons. Instead, he ordered the U.S. Navy into action.
7. He escalated American involvement in the Vietnam War.
The Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington tells the story: 16 Americans killed in Vietnam in 1961, 53 in 1962, 118 in 1963. The American antiwar movement that peaked in the late 1960s started as a protest against President Kennedy's war in Vietnam.
8. He was very religious.
Kennedy attended mass weekly, sometimes more, and knelt to pray at bedtime. He skipped his bacon for breakfast on Fridays to remember the day of Jesus' death. "He was just as good a Catholic as I am," said Boston's Cardinal Cushing. Of course, not all religious people are politically conservative. Kennedy justified his political beliefs, though, by explaining that Americans believed people had certain rights that came from God, and by contrasting that with the godless Soviet Union.
9. He appointed one of the two justices who dissented against Roe v. Wade.
Byron White (left), a Kennedy Surpeme Court appointee, was one of only two justices who dissented against the 1973 decision in Roe v. Wade that found women had the constitutional right to an abortion. White's dissent accused the Roe majority of "interposing a constitutional barrier to state efforts to protect human life." White also wrote the majority opinion in Bowers v. Hardwick, refusing to strike down a Georgia law against sodomy.
10. He called abortion repugnant.
Abortion in 1960 was not the hot political issue it would later become, but "population control" was a topic of discussion. As a senator, Kennedy was asked, "Do you see any hope at all of slowing up the rate of population increase?" Kennedy's reply was somewhat dismissive. "Now, on the question of limiting population: As you know the Japanese have been doing it very vigorously, through abortion, which I think would be repugnant to all Americans."
11. The law was the law, even if it meant killing someone.
An assistant special counsel to President Kennedy, Lee White, recalls a federal death penalty case in which White recommended "this fellow's life shouldn't be taken." The president responded, "Is there any circumstances, in your view, under which somebody's life should be taken?" White said no. Kennedy replied, "Well, what does the law say?" White later recalled, "I told him. He said, 'OK. Let's don't have you advising me then that I shouldn't take people's lives.' And that guy was put to death."
12. He went slow on civil rights.
Martin Luther King Jr. called the Kennedy administration's approach on civil rights "essentially cautious and defensive." After King gave his "I have a dream" speech at the March on Washington, Kennedy met with him and the march's organizers and suggested "with all the influence that all you gentlemen have in the Negro community…[you] really have to concentrate on what I think the Jewish community has done on educating their children, on making them stay in school, and all the rest."
13. He was not a big spender.
Kennedy's annual federal budget deficits were all lower than Eisenhower's had been in 1959. Even space exploration, in some ways Kennedy's signature program, was subject to tight spending discipline; Kennedy said it should be focused on beating the Russians to the moon: "Otherwise we shouldn't be spending this kind of money, because I'm not that interested in space."
14. Except when it came to the military.
During Kennedy's reign, spending increases were concentrated on the military, the defense budget rose 20% and he boasted that he had "doubled the number of nuclear weapons available in the strategic alert forces" as well as "increased the tactical nuclear forces deployed in Europe by over 60%."
15. He was tough on unions.
As a senator, one of Kennedy's main efforts was a campaign against what he called "the cancer of labor racketeering." He criticized union leaders who he said "practice extortion, shakedowns, and bribery."
16. He wanted to reform welfare.
His famous inaugural address line, "Ask not what your country can do for you…" was later described by journalist Chris Matthews as "a hard Republican-sounding slap at the welfare state." Kennedy followed through with welfare policy stressing "training for useful work instead of prolonged dependency."
17. He was friendly to the oil and gas industries.
This was before the concern about global warming, but even so, Kennedy wrote a letter in the 1960 campaign defending the oil depletion allowance, a tax break that modern liberals hate. In a 1961 message to Congress on regulation, Kennedy spoke of the job-creating value of natural gas pipelines and asked Congress to change the law to exempt more pipelines and gas producers from federal regulations.
18. Kennedy gave conservative speeches.
On July 4, 1946, he said America had been "strengthened by Christian morality" and criticized "the cynical philosophy of many of our intellectuals." On Jan. 29, 1950, at Notre Dame, he said, "The ever expanding power of the federal government, the absorption of many of the functions that states and cities once considered to be the responsibilities of their own, must now be a source of concern to all those who believe as did the Irish Patriot, Henry Grattan: 'Control over local affairs is the essence of liberty.'"
19. The press actually described him as a conservative.
"A Kennedy Runs for Congress; The Boston-bred scion of a former ambassador is a fighting-Irish conservative," Look magazine headlined an article in its June 11, 1946, issue. The Chicago Tribune reported Kennedy's election to the Senate in 1952 by describing him as a "fighting conservative." On Dec. 7, 1958, Eleanor Roosevelt was asked in a television interview what she would do if she had to choose between a "conservative Democrat like Kennedy and a liberal Republican [like] Rockefeller"?
20. His friends and staff described him as conservative.
A campaign staffer and congressional aide, William Sutton, described Kennedy's political stance in the 1946 campaign as "almost ultraconservative." "He was more conservative than anything else," said a Navy friend of Kennedy's, James Reed, who went on to serve as assistant Treasury secretary in the Kennedy administration. Kennedy's speechwriter and longtime aide, Ted Sorensen, said, "Kennedy was a fiscal conservative. Most of us and the press and historians have, for one reason or another, treated Kennedy as being much more liberal than he so regarded himself at the time… in fiscal matters, he was extremely conservative, very cautious about the size of the budget."
21. Ronald Reagan loved to use Kennedy as an example.
Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush both mentioned Kennedy in justifying their tax cuts and foreign policy. As Reagan put it in 1984, "Whenever I talk about…John F. Kennedy, my opponents start tearing their hair out. They just can't stand it."

The point here is "with this patch, f_locks it not used at all any more." Note that we have a nice inline function "nlm_file_inuse", why should we use f_locks (that I assume people agree that it is awkward) ? Could we simply drop f_locks all together in this section of code?
Start to have a second thought about this ....Removing f_locks does make the code much more readable. However, if inode->i_flock list is long, e.g. large amount of (clients) hosts and/or processes from other hosts competing for the same lock, we don't want to do the list walk twice within nlm_traverse_files(). Intuitively this is unlikely but I prefer not changing the current behavior. As the result, I'm withdrawing the patch all together.
The first patch will handle the issue correctly. Will submit it after this post.

Chew on It -- Wrapping up the burger tour at Freeport Restaurant
For my last stop on my second burger tour, I ended up at the Freeport Restaurant in North East. I was joined again by my co-worker, Steve Anthony.
We had scoped out the menu online, so when our server came to our table we were ready to order. I decided on the bacon cheeseburger with a side of onion petals and Steve ordered the spicy black bean burger with fries.
Our food was out in good time and looked terrific. The bacon cheeseburger was a charbroiled 5-ounce all-beef patty with two pieces of crispy bacon that is smoked in-house. It was topped with a slice of cheddar cheese, lettuce and tomato and came with mayo on the side.
The bun was toasted, which gave it some texture as well as a solid layer to hold everything together. The burger was charred on the outside, with a perfectly juicy center. The bacon was salty with a hint of sweetness, while the melted cheese added creaminess without making it super messy.
Overall, it was a standard and delicious burger. The smoked bacon is what really made it for me.
Steve's spicy black bean burger held a combination of beans, corn, garlic, herbs, spices and breadcrumbs. It wasn't overly bready, so I assume that the filler was minimal.
The beans were the rightful star of this burger, with everything else being used as highlights.

Idolmaster Follow-up Dances on 360
Tired of being manager? Now simply watch idols dance.
Japanese Xbox 360 fans should be delighted to hear that they will be getting more Idolmaster goodness. Famitsu reveals Namco Bandai will release a follow-up titled Idolmaster: Live For You!.
It's not exactly a sequel, since the gameplay mechanics have changed quite a bit. In the original, players were a manager for the idol group and scheduled everything from training lessons to stage performances. The drawback was they could perform poorly if you slack off in their training. Now, that's not necessary. In Idolmaster: Live For You, you only need to choose which idols you want on stage, coordinate their costumes and select a favorite song. Then, sit back. Like the original, you can take pictures during the performance, too.
Idolmaster: Live For You! will be packaged with an anime DVD, though likely not related to the ongoing anime series. Namco Bandai has not set a release date yet for Japan.

I think Idolm@ster has a chance of being released stateside. Anyone check Xbox Live recently? But seriously, why all the hate? There are more games than just Halo, GTA, and Madden out there...

RegioningPosted: Oct 24, 2007 12:00AM PST by NegativeZero
Let's hope that this time Namdai don't deliberately region-lock it and make it impossible to import without picking up a Japanese 360. Since they have no intention to ever release the idolmaster games outside Japan, there really seems to be no reason to cut out importers.

Former Delaware and Dartmouth head coachAlden H. "Whitey" Burnham, died on Nov. 18 after a brief illness in Hanover, N.H., at the age of 85.
Burnham, who was the NSCAA president in 1966 and the recipient of its Honor Award in 1974, was secretary of the NCAA soccer rules committee for nine years and All-America selection committee chair for 14 years.
Burnham began his coaching career as soccer and wrestling coach at the University of Delaware. After 12 years, he was hired at Dartmouth University in 1960 to coach soccer and lacrosse. The following year, he became the Big Green's first and only three-sport coach when he took over the wrestling program. He remained head coach of all three sports through 1966 before focusing on soccer and lacrosse.
In 1969, Burnham moved into an administrator's role at Dartmouth, serving as assistant director of athletics. He retired from Dartmouth in 1989 after 29 years of service in the athletics department.
Burnham Field, the home of Dartmouth's men's and women's soccer team, was dedicated in his honor in the spring of 2008. The stadium features a top-quality natural grass field with state-of-the-art drainage, bleacher seating for 1,600 spectators and additional seating on grass berms surrounding the field.
Burnham is survived by his wife of 63 years, Joanne, their two children, Fred and Janice, and two granddaughters.
The family has announced a memorial service and celebration of his life on Saturday, Dec. 20 at 3:00 pm at the Rollins Chapel on the Dartmouth campus.

Khan: If No Pacquiao, I'm The Best Fight For Mayweather
By Pawel Pronishev
Next Saturday night in Washington, DC, WBA/IBF 140-pound champion Amir Khan will defend his titles against mandatory challenger Lamont Peterson. The fight is likely going to be the British boxer's last appearance at 140-pounds. Beyond Peterson, Khan is focused on securing a huge opportunity against WBC welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. in 2012. Khan revealed on BBC 5 Radio that Golden Boy Promotions has been talking to Mayweather about the fight. Mayweather returns on May 5th at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. No opponent has been set.
"Its the fight the world wants to see. Its a public demand fight. 2012 will be a massive year for me and we will fight Floyd Mayweather. The talks have been going through Golden Boy. They have been speaking to his team. They want the fight and so does I. I want to get Lamont Peterson and hopefully get a date in 2012 with Floyd Mayweather," Khan said.
Mayweather is trying to get a fight with Manny Pacquiao, Khan's stablemate at California's Wild Card Gym. If a deal for Pacquiao can't be reached, Khan regards himself as the next best option for May.
"On paper I'm the best he could face, if he doesn't face Manny Pacquiao. If I didn't think I could beat Floyd Mayweather and I didn't have the style, the speed and the power to beat him - then I wouldn't even be talking about it. I'm don't want to be a challenger going into these fights. I want to be a champion and the winner. I know that Floyd has never faced the speed and the power than I have. I have the best trainer in the world, in my corner, who will give me the right instructions to beat him," Khan said.
[QUOTE=WESS;11503314]Haters will hype Khan up to be the next guy to beat Floyd, sadly when all is said and done, Haters will talk sh*t about Khan just like they did Hatton.. Highly demanded fight now but haters will say Floyd…Comment by littlemac on 07-15-2012

So everything runs smoothly and more importantly the games work without having to spend hours trying to find some way to make them run. Which seems to be the case now for Win7 users, which you may consider your self lucky if you had no problems so far. Yet I see plenty of people have win7 issues with games to hold off on getting it. I don't care if it washes and irons your underwear but as long as there is problems with the gaming scene I'm not going to own it. I'll wait until they patch it some more and then I'll get it. Should have done so with Vista, gave me hell with F3. I was dumb enough to think "Hey, these guys with Vista are playing it, it's made for Vista so I might as well get Vista now." Epic Logic Fail. Trust me, always better to wait it out before getting the new OS, especially if you are a gamer. Just think of all the hours you'll save your self not having to troubleshoot to get a game to work. Then again if you don't know what I'm talking about then you probably don't play a whole lot of games on your PC so whatever.

i've used Vista 64-Bit for quite a while and to be honest never had a problem playing any game but the problem that i noticed was that after a while say about 2 to 3 hours Vista starts to lag..or slow down even on a power house rig like mine with all updates and installed. when i switched to Win7 64-Bit it just blew me away...fast and smooth and the gaming wasn't a problem at all. not saying Vista is bad...but Win7 is miles ahead. its said that in SLI Win7 boosts performance by as much as 17%. that's a lot.

I've had Vista x64 since release too and have enjoyed using it over XP so much I stopped using it even though I have dual OS. Games perform fine for me but benchmarks do dip with lower CPU power (minus 7% average from well-known benchmarks from using Vista than testing in XP).
Planning on a new top-end custom build in 4 or 5 months time and that will feature W7 simply because it'll have DX11, faster OS with less clunk (even though Vista is de-clunked I don't want to spend ages doing this again). A new PC deserves a brand new OS!
Only using CH trainers to add fun to games already completed or for testing mods, etc.

Still using vista on my main comp, but switching to 7 is no question, since i noticed the awesomeness of 7 on my latop.

I have to ask this...b/c with this pregnancy, I am going MUCH more frequently than the last two...but I'm also retaining much less fluid, so that's good. Some nights I'm up as many as 7 times...sometimes more than twice an hour. Often I don't even have time to fall asleep again before I have to get up again! It's always at least 4...but probably avgs. 5.
What about you girls?
