There are of course a bunch of teams that we can talk about on this list of the Super Bowl 51 contenders but we are trying to make sure that for the most part we are only talking about teams in the NFL that really actually do have a good chance of making it to next year's Super Bowl. We all know as football fans that making it to the Super Bowl is definitely something that is really hard to do no matter which conference you are in, but of course there are some teams that make it seem like a piece of cake, but that is just because these teams are really good every single year, and we are going to continue to talk more about some of the teams that we think are super epic and can do some big things. Of course when we consider all of the Super Bowl 51 contenders there really are only a hand full of teams that really do have a good shot at making it to the Super Bowl, but of course we are going to be discussing all of these teams in great detail on this site. So if you are the type of person who is really interested and a huge fan of football and the NFL then you definitely are in the right place online because we are going to be continuing to talk more about the Super Bowl 51 contenders and we are going to be discussing why these teams have such a good chance of making it to that big game next year, so let's continue to talk more about the Super Bowl 51 contenders.
So the next of the Super Bowl 51 contenders that we are going to be talking about is the Green Bay Packers, and I think for the most part we can definitely say that Aaron Rodgers is by far one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL and is doing really well in recent years, and he has almost gotten to the point that he is unstoppable, but of course he is just a really good quarterback in the NFL and he always gives his team a chance of winning every single game. Now we have to remember that Green Bay did really well last year without their best receiver in Jordy Nelson and we all know that when he is on the field he makes their offense a lot better, and so with him back you can definitely imagine that Aaron Rodgers and the Packers offense are going to be really good next year, and that is going to give them more of an edge than they had last year and give them a pretty good chance of making it to the Super Bowl, and that is exactly why we think that they are one of the Super Bowl 51 contenders. So if you are thinking that the NFC belongs to the Panthers again you might want to think again because the Packers are always a good team and are always going to be giving the NFC a run for their money and that is exactly because of their good offense and overall discipline as a team, and that is definitely how the Packers roll.

Sharpness at 200mm
For these sharpness tests the Fujifilm XF 55-200mm F3.5-4.8 R LM OIS lens was attached to a Fujifilm X-Pro1 body, which in turn was mounted on a sturdy tripod. Slight tonal changes are due to slight changes in natural light during the session.
The full frame at 200mm
At 200mm the centre is soft wide open, with peak performance achieved in the f/8-11 range. Diffraction sets in at around f/16, with its effects becoming more visible at f/22.
The edges are somewhat soft at f/5.6-8 but sharpen up very nicely at f/11, with f/16 the optimum setting.

It's a temple for sun worshippers. A swift, unshakable guardian in weather. A quiet, opulent cruiser with an enormous wealth of standards – and beyond, plenty of intriguing, no-charge options. It's the Ocean Alexander heritage, safety and craftsmanship you must have; combined with the wide-beam freedom and nimble speed you want.
When we tank-tested the new hull at Sea State V, it proved its mettle. And when the designer began dreaming up its innovative interiors, Ocean Alexander pulled out all the stops, from exotic wood cabinetry to the gleaming stainless of its exacting engine room.
The new 78 Motoryacht can become whatever you want it to be. But all the while, it is supremely Ocean Alexander.

Today was the first day that we didn't know where we were going to stay in the evening so we just headed out and kept an eye for anywhere that might take our fancy.
We didn't want to rush ourselves but as we heard the zoo in St Louis was one of the best in the country we headed over there to check it out. It was free and very impressive indeed. The money to keep the zoo running is obviously put together with sponsorship as everything has ...

Today we rode off into the rolling hills of Missouri and encountered our first road grade greater than 10%. We expect to see a lot more of this in the coming days.

'Santa Claus' sought in armed robbery
EAST PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) — Call it a ho-ho-holdup.
Police say a man dressed as Santa Claus has robbed a Rhode Island yacht club.
Authorities say a bartender was alone in the East Providence Yacht Club Sunday night when a large man wearing a red suit, red hat, white beard and carrying a sack walked into the bar and brandished a gun.
The bartender fled and ran to a nearby business where she called 911.
By the time police arrived, the Santa bandit — as well as an undetermined amount of cash from the register — was missing.
Co-owner Tony Perry tells WLNE-TV he's just glad no one was hurt.
There were no immediate arrests.

Chapter Twenty-TwoMature
"What I don't understand is how somebody
could have made so many of them, when most buildings and factories have been
destroyed, along with the equipment and materials needed for anything to be
"And how did they end up in the same
place as the zombies?"
I added.
The rest of the day was spent
researching. We didn't unearth any essential evidence though. Steve helped us
with our research for a while, but he wasn't much help. Rick was apparently
working with some of the dogs, training them and that sort of thing. He wasn't
seen for the rest of the day. Devin seemed cold towards Steve, though they were
normally good friends. Devin doesn't like mean behaviour. Sure, he can be very
tough and authoritarian, but he hates when people are downright mean for no
apparent reason.
"Go see the dogs, why don't you,
Devin said.
I knew that was code for "Go make
sure that Steve hasn't locked Rick into a kennel and forgot to let him out."
"Uh…maybe later."
I mumbled, but when Devin tells you
to do something, he doesn't change his mind.
"No Tara, you'll go now."
Devin told me persistently.
"Okay, okay!"

My wife and I enjoy travel as a passion. After visiting Waikoloa each of the last two years, we came, we stayed and we purchased. looking for a retreat from our southern californian base, we wanted a location with great access to the beach and restaurants and Kolea was the only property that met that requirment. Immaculately kept and managed it just felt right as we came through the gates. The penthouse apartments with easy elevator access enjoy high ceilings and openess.
Having stayed in many condos the past years we wanted to create a true home from home not only for ourselves but also our guests. We have furnished the condo with attention to detail and comfort and flair, better equipped that most. We have tried to think of all you need on a vacation

THIRTY-six participants from nine Seameo member countries yesterday received their certificates of completion during the closing ceremony of the Regional Training Programme on Excellence in Curriculum Implementation through Visionary Leadership and Situational Supervision (E-Class) held at the Seameo VOCTECH Regional Centre.
Present as the guest of honour at the event was the Ambassador of the Republic of Indonesia to Brunei Darussalam, Nurul Qomar.
"The challenges of 21st Century education brought about by new technologies and globalisation have brought to bear new requirements and new ways of implementing a curriculum," said the Centre Director of Seameo VOCTECH, Haji Md Sharifuddin bin Haji Md Salleh.
"The traditional ways of implementing a curriculum are no longer sufficient in meeting the needs of our technology-savvy learners and the industry's demand for creative and critical thinking workers."
Haji Md Sharifuddin also pointed out that the demand for the 21st Century workforce skills will increase as knowledge-based technologies restructure the operational organisation of industry, requiring workers to be creative, innovative, collaborative, and good communicators, making it compulsory for educational institutions to redefine their programme goals and objectives, applying new strategies to meet the demands of stakeholders and requirements of Southeast Asian and global environment.
The guest of honour highlighted that there are real concerns with implementing curriculums when the people implementing them are not clear in what is expected of them, resulting in the curriculum plan remaining on the shelf and efforts in the planning becoming a sheer waste.
"I hope this training programme in one way or the other will help resolve these issues by applying in appropriate management style and situational leadership behaviour in the implementation, monitoring and evaluation of the programme," added the ambassador.
Prior to the ambassador's speech, a report was delivered by the Course Coordinator, Dr Marcelino Gapultos Jr, and a short sharing session was presented by the Class President, Major (U) Pengiran Md Farisan bin Pengiran Haji Metassan.
There was a Seameo VOCTECH video presentation followed by the presentation of certificates to the participants by the guest of honour.
The participants comprised principals, instructors, lecturers, teachers, from Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam, as well as 13 officers from Brunei Darussalam's Ministry of Defence and Royal Brunei Armed Forces.

I have tried diagnostic tests on my hardware (HDD, RAM, CPU, MB) and all have passed. Neither has there been any voltage fluctuations or any type of physical damage to my computer hardware. What could be the possible cause ?

Chapter LXIX
If Beatrix had thought the Erls' army was big, then Aaron's army was off the scale. The two armies lined up facing each other, sunlight glinting off swords, shields, armour, blinding her and making her blink rapidly. Swords and shields clanked, armour creaked, horns blared and horses whinnied.
Her heart leapt into her mouth. This was it! They would sink or swim together according to this moment. So much depended on this. This had been her decision. Her plan. And it was her fight.
So why was she stuck up here like a spectator at a play? Her swordhand itched, and she could hear Keiran laughing in her ear, calling her a 'regular little wildcat'. Was all that training for nothing?
A fanfare was sounded, and most of the noise stopped. The pennants flapped in the wind. A man in full armour, flanked by soldiers and holding a white flag rode out from the rebel army and into the centre of the battlefield. An answering figure, surrounded by guardsmen, rode to meet him in the grey ground between the two armies.
Beatrix held her breath along with the rest of Disnarta as this small moment began. It would decide everything. If this could be resolved peacefully, then...
But already Aaron was riding back to his army, and she could just imagine the look of smug self-satisfaction that resided on his face.
Hathering rode back to his own army, riding up and down the front line, gaining a hearty cheer as he did so. Beatrix felt a great hope rise up in her chest, weighed down by the sharp tang of fear. There was no way they could win. But they had to.
Engulfed in her emotions as she was, she nearly missed the movement that started it all off - a quick, sharp jerk of Aaron's head. Immediately, the trumpets sounded, and before the rebels had a chance to do much but register the danger, a volley of arrows, tiny as pins from the distance, sped up from Aaron's archers. For a second they whirled through the air, tiny packages of death, before crashing into the rebel army. Beatrix was close enough to hear the screams.
If Beatrix had been trained in war, she would have known that the volley of arrows was not much more than a deterrent, as most of them fell short, but from where she sat in her ignorance, it seemed to be a disaster.
The trumpets sounded again, and Beatrix had no way of knowing whose army they communicated to. But luckily the soldiers seemed to know, because the cavalry on the left wing of the rebel army let out an enormous roar, and began the charge.

Holding a book in my hands, the author beckons me, "Imagine feeling more love from someone than you have ever known." Yes! I muse and settle in for a journey with the 300-page book. The line on the back cover "love is a state of being" garnered my full attention. I read on, "This lover doesn't need anything from you . . . only wants your complete fulfillment." Two paragraphs later, I'm introduced to the lover, "It's the subatomic texture of the universe, the dark matter that connects everything." Whoa, can we back up a second? The "someone" on the first page just became an "it." Then onto the next sentence, "When you tune into that flow … [Read more...]
I. Heartfulness over Mindfulness
In response to my slogan "Enriching mindfulness with heartfulness," a woman wrote, "I wonder what my life would have been like if I had lived this approach." Her wistful line haunted me for days. I wanted to reach out, hug her, and whisper, Live it now. As long as you have life, you have choice and chances. Plunge the depth of heartfulness! I hope my slogan entices others and gets all of us thinking about the differences between mindfulness and heartfulness. Mindfulness grants peace but doesn't necessarily include heartfulness. Heartfulness awards the deep joy of spiritual love and encompasses mindfulness and peace. In other words, … [Read more...]

I pick up the stainless steel bowl of kitchen scraps and head out of the house onto the sandy road until I reach the neighbors fenced yard with the goats. "Hare Krishna guys," I call. Three males, two females, and two adorable, white and brown billies come running. Cascading from the bowl falls rice, the ends of asparagus, zucchini, carrots and sweet potato and beet shavings. The largest male, who has full horns, already has his head down butting all the other goats—hard. This goat annoys me. He's the new kid on the block. The other goat king died a few weeks ago. Now this one has taken his spot. Of course, goats aren't the only ones with … [Read more...]

Monte Carlo or HellMature
Chapter 3: Monte Carlo or Hell ~~ Admiratio minora ~~
Chapter 3: Monte Carlo or Hell
~~ Admiratio minora ~~Emma had been right about my earlier preoccupation, something Armaros had said was playing on my mind and as I turned toward the bedroom door I found myself thinking about it again. Over two thousand denizens have hitch-hiked over here and are currently seeking sanctuary under the protection of Dogma.
Dogma! It hadn't occurred to me that I might fall under the protection of the Catholic Church now that I was, technically, human. But the more I thought about it the more it made sense. Okay, I was probably clutching at straws but now that I was potentially back on Hell's radar, straws were probably all I had.
I'd never been that hot on the constricts in dogmata, and for good reasons. I was lazy, disinterested and supremely unmotivated. And bearing in mind that most of my time was spent enticing people to break rules, it all seemed like a waste of time. I figured that not knowing the rules might actually be an advantage. And if you believe that you'll believe anything.
Now don't get me wrong, I knew the basics.
~~ The basics ~~
- Demons like Armaros, who were here as demons in their demonic form – definitely not protected.
- Demons co-habiting human form i.e. occupying the body of a human who already has a soul of their own – definitely not protected.
- Humans – protected.
- Me - ?
~~ Portals: part 1 – corporeal ~~
Now, and for the first time in my existence, I wish I had studied.
I pushed the door open with a somewhat understandable amount of trepidation, ready to duck or run or, if the worst came to the worst, scream like a girl before bursting into flames. Thankfully none of these things happened, though I did still cringe involuntarily and screw my eyes shut for the briefest of moments.
So! I hate bursting into flames! Can you blame me?
The bedroom was exactly as I had left it, with the exception of three pools of black wax that had once been candles and an ugly ring-shaped burn on the carpet marking the boundary of the confinement barrier I had used to hold Armaros. A thin veil of smoke drifted aimlessly around the ceiling light and the faint odour of charred meat hung in the air. I knew that carpet was made of acrylic, I thought to myself, remembering how Emma had once tried to convince me that it was real wool.
As for Armaros there were no signs, and I was pleased to discover that he had not satisfied his frustration at being summoned with any acts of senseless vandalism. I didn't have much worth breaking, but that's not the point. Better still he hadn't tidied up either. It was a mess and I liked it that way.
All the same I gave the room a quick once over, just to make sure that he hadn't left me any surprises, and after a thorough search of all the drawers, the wardrobe, the closet and finally the bed, I discovered that he had. But it wasn't the surprise I had expected. Are they ever?
In the centre of what had been the confinement ring, sitting on the circular piece of carpet that had been effectively cut out – Bang goes my security deposit! – was a calling card. Armaros always was a suave mother-fucker and a calling card was most definitely his style. I hadn't noticed it before because it was almost exactly the same colour as the carpet; a deep, rich brown. Emma said it was chocolate, but I thought it looked like something else and I didn't like it at all. But it did hide most stains, although the candle wax was going to be a bugger to remove. However, I'm digressing.
~~ Portals: part 2 – non-corporeal ~~
I bent down slowly and picked up the card, holding it at arms length in much the same way that one might hold a rabid weasel, or a bomb. I was still uncertain about Armaros' intentions and his calling card, though innocuous enough, was an ideal foil for a trap. I said that he was suave, did I also mention that he was devious? It was nice, not that I'm an expert in this field, but I've seen enough business cards to know that this one wasn't cheap. It was weighty, for something so small, and a delicately marbled reddish brown in colour. It was also slightly warm to the touch. But apart from a small gold symbol embossed on the upper right hand corner, which I didn't recognise, it was totally blank. I turned it over to find that the other side exactly the same, only minus the embossing. That was when I felt a slight tingling sensation in my fingers.
Dropping the card like a hot potato, I immediately stepped backwards until I hit the wardrobe, pressing myself against it as though I was trying to merge with it. Instead of falling, the card hung in the air in a most disturbing violation of the law of gravity, and it began to glow, quite brightly in fact. This was exactly why I had been so cautious about the damn thing in the first place. Business cards didn't normally behave in that way, at least none of the others I'd ever held did.
I waited. Not entirely sure what to expect or what, if anything, I should do at this stage. The card now stood between me and the door, effectively blocking my escape, and as my flat was on the second floor, I didn't fancy my survival chances in a jump from the window. Besides, it was altogether possible that I might be overreacting a tad; as I said, I was still unsure of Armaros' intentions.
I quickly scanned the room for something to poke the card, but the only object within easy reach that seemed to fit the bill was a large inflatable hammer that I'd bought on a day trip to Brighton with Emma a few months ago. I was just what I needed … to prove to myself how ridiculous I was being. With the image of me beating a small piece of card to death with a large novelty hammer fresh in my mind, I relaxed, took a couple of steps forward and picked the card out of the air.
Turning it over a couple of times I noticed that faint words had now appeared on the front of the card, they shimmered gently as though they were almost not really there. I moved the card closer to my face, squinting to read the spidery letters. They said 'Hold your Breath'.
There was a faint popping sound. Everything went dark. A gritty, metallic taste scraped across my tongue.
Bugger! I thought.
~~ A brief history of stupidity: reprise ~~
It was shiny.
So very, very shiny.
I couldn't resist.
I reached out and took it.
~~ Arrival (The maternity ward: reprise) ~~
I found myself slightly disoriented. I found myself in an unfamiliar, though very swish, apartment. I found myself completely naked.
At least I wasn't being held upside down by the ankles having the shit smacked out of me. Again!
~~ The decanter ~~
'You didn't need to dress for the occasion,' said a sarcastic voice from somewhere behind me. I spun round to find Armaros smiling from across a large, glass topped desk. Behind him the entire back wall of the room was also made of glass in which, to one side, a door had been fitted, evident in the dim light only by its faint outline and a curved metal handle. I imagined some sort of balcony beyond. 'Did I catch you at an inconvenient moment?' he continued, his smile broadened, giving him the air of a sadistic game show host who's just asked a contestant if they would prefer to be disembowelled or dismembered. I stared at him like a man who had just been asked if he'd prefer to be disembowelled or dismembered.
'Err … what?' I managed to mumble.
'How much have you had to drink this evening?' he said, moving round from behind the desk. He went across to what looked like an antique french dresser and unstoppered a crystal decanter before pouring a large quantity of golden brown liquid from it into a tumbler which stood on a nearby tray.
'Mmm … about half a bottle of wine,' I said, uncertainly. I was still a little dazed.
'Then you'll be needing this I would imagine.' He handed me the glass and continued on past me through a doorway which led to an adjacent room. I automatically raised the glass to my lips and took a long swig of the contents, my hand trembling slightly as I did. It wasn't cold in the apartment, but I was shivering none-the-less. The metallic taste from the transference was immediately replaced by a smoky, peaty tang and a faint burning sensation caught the back of my throat before a soothing warmth spread upward from my stomach. Whiskey, and probably a good one knowing Armaros.
'Here,' he said, tossing a silk dressing gown onto the arm of the long leather sofa to my right. 'Cover yourself up before you make me blush.' He threw himself down at the other end of the sofa and picked up a glass from a nearby table. It too contained a golden brown liquid which he lifted to his lips and sipped languidly. 'Was she worth it?'
I ignored the question. 'Where am I?' I asked, pulling on the gown before unstoppering the decanter again. 'Do you mind?' He shook his head so I refilled my glass.
'You're in my apartment.'
'Yes. But where?' I moved over to the window and peered out into the night. The balcony I had imagined wasn't very wide and was bounded by a thin metal rail over a series of smoked glass panels. I recognised the vista immediately. 'This is Canary Wharf,' I said, a little surprised. 'You live in London?' I had expected him to live somewhere much more exotic: Beverley Hills, Monte Carlo, maybe Paris or Madrid.
'I do whilst you're here,' he said nonchalantly, taking another sip of his drink.
I was clearly still confused from the transference. 'You mean you've moved to London just for me?' I asked incredulously.
'No, I mean that I'm staying in my London apartment until our business is concluded.' He shook his head. 'I like you a lot better when you're drunk Valefar.'
'You've never met me when I'm drunk,' I protested. It seemed logical since I'd only started drinking after I become human. He raised an eyebrow as if to say, that's what you think. I opened my mouth to protest but decided that I probably didn't want to know where and when he'd met me before. If I didn't remember it now then no amount of explaining was going to help and would probably just annoy me. I went back to the decanter. 'If it's drunk you want then give me ten minutes and I'll be with you.'
~~ Portals: part 3 – trans-dimensional/trans-temporal ~~
'Are you out of your tiny mind?' I spluttered, about forty minutes, and a good many whiskeys later. 'If I go back to Hell they'll …' I didn't need say what they would do, we both knew.
'Only if they catch you,' he said with infinite patience. He'd been over this whole 'going back to Hell' thing three times already and I think he was starting to wish that he'd just killed me back at my apartment. But he kept his cool admirably. 'Besides, you're going to have to go back there eventually, one way or the other. The question is would you rather go back under their terms or yours?'
I was beginning to feel like that unfortunate game show contestant again and I wondered if option three could possibly be any worse than either having my guts ripped out or my limbs torn off. 'There's still one thing I'm not clear on,' I said slowly. He groaned and looked up at the ceiling. 'Back at the flat you looked like you wanted to kill me. So why are you helping me now. When you brought me here I thought you were going to tear me apart. And why didn't you just summon me instead of all that elaborate translocation business?'
'I did want to kill you. I just wasn't allowed,' he sighed. 'Haven't you been listening to anything I've told you? You're protected by Dogma. Which bit of that is unclear? And as for summoning you, well that's impossible. You're not really a demon anymore. At least not as long as you're in that body. Your sigil doesn't work for the time being. Why do you think no one has found you yet? Oh they've tried, believe me they've tried, but something about you being in human form prevents it. My instructions have been clear from the moment you stole that soul. I wasn't allowed to go looking for you, but if you ask for help I have to give it. And you did summon me for help.' He looked at me enquiringly, 'It's the only logical reason why you would summon me.'
I nodded slowly. 'Then tell me again, how are you going to send me back to Hell?'
He flashed his game show host smile again. 'Come with me,' he said.
He led me through to the room he'd recovered the gown from earlier, it was his bedroom. It was a little ostentatious for my tastes: a four poster bed, rosewood panelling and a polished wooden floor. It seemed strangely incongruous in comparison to the ultra-modern lounge we had just left. But who am I to judge a man's tastes, I live in a hovel.
At the back of the room he stopped and drew his finger down one of the panels. A faint glow emanated from his finger tip as he did and I heard a distinct 'click' before a long panel in the wall popped open to reveal a doorway. 'Welcome to my inner sanctum,' he said with undue formality.
'Corny,' I replied, sneering at him.
He chuckled, 'I've always wanted to say that. Now wipe your feet.'
I looked down at my bare feet, and then at the bare floorboards. On what? I thought to myself as I followed him into the room.
I found myself in an Aladdin's Cave of magical paraphernalia. A large table, covered with manuscripts, occupied the centre of the room with an armchair set nearby. A number of other, smaller tables filled positions near the walls, each of which was lined from top to bottom along their full length with shelving crammed with magical items. Most of the stuff had power, and you could feel it emanating into the room. I was impressed and I think he knew it.
'You remember my calling card?' I nodded. 'Well I can make one that will send you back to Hell.'
'What! Now!' I looked down at myself in his black silk dressing gown. 'I'm not really dressed for it.'
'No,' he said, a hint of exasperation in his voice. 'It'll take me about a week to prepare but I have all the elements I need right here.'
I thought about the one he'd left on my bedroom floor. 'Do you mean that you made that other card a week before I summoned you? How did you know?'
'I didn't,' he said again, opening the lid of an ornate wooden box on the table. 'I always keep a stock of those. At least one for each of my homes.' Inside were about a dozen neat piles of calling cards, exactly like the one he had left for me. They all looked alike. I reached out to take one but he stopped me. 'I wouldn't do that if I were you. They're activated when anyone but me touches them.'
'How do you tell them apart?' I asked, peering closer, still trying to discern the difference.
'Top right hand corner,' he replied enigmatically. I looked closer and saw that the embossed symbol on the top card of each pile was slightly different. 'Rome, Beverley Hills, New York, Monte Carlo,' he said, pointing to a different pile each time. He moved over to one of the shelves and began to rummage through a pile of parchment.
I knew he had a place in Monte Carlo, I thought bitterly to myself. Why couldn't he have translocated me there? 'So what do I do for the next week then?'
'You could do that girl again,' he said distractedly. 'She seemed very ... enthusiastic? But does she ever shut up?'

Long-term antidepressant use: patient perspectives of benefits and adverse effects.
Cartwright C1, Gibson K1, Read J2, Cowan O1, Dehar T1.
Abstract and free full text at http://www.ncbi.nlm....pubmed/27528803
Long-term antidepressant treatment has increased and there is evidence of adverse effects; however, little is known about patients' experiences and views of this form of treatment. This study used mixed methods to examine patients' views and experiences of long-term antidepressant treatment, including benefits and concerns. Data from 180 patients, who were long-term users of antidepressants (3-15 years), were extracted from an anonymous online survey of patients' experiences of antidepressants in New Zealand. Participants had completed rating scales about the effectiveness of antidepressants, levels of depression before and during antidepressant use, quality of life, and perceived adverse effects. Two open-ended questions allowed participants to comment on personal experiences. The majority (89.4%) reported that antidepressants had improved their depression although 30% reported moderate-to-severe depression on antidepressants. Common adverse effects included withdrawal effects (73.5%), sexual problems (71.8%), and weight gain (65.3%). Adverse emotional effects, such as feeling emotionally numb (64.5%) and addicted (43%), were also common. While the majority of patients were pleased with the benefits of antidepressant treatment, many were concerned about these adverse effects. Some expressed a need for more information about long-term risks and increased information and support to discontinue.
From the full text:
The majority of patients in this study believed that antidepressants alleviated their depression and improved their quality of life to some degree, although 30% reported moderate-to-severe depression while using antidepressants. As reported in 2013, experiences of adverse effects were common.12 However, Bet et al's study12 did not examine the adverse emotional effects reported in this study nor did it examine the patients' reports of withdrawal symptoms.
Some patients in this study were particularly concerned about severe withdrawal symptoms that undermined their confidence to discontinue should they wish to and therefore limited their choices. In line with this, 45% patients also believed that they had some level of addiction to the antidepressant. Some patients were also critical of the lack of information given by prescribers with regard to adverse effects, including withdrawal symptoms. Some also expressed disappointment or frustration with the perceived lack of support available to them in managing withdrawal.
A previous study of patients' beliefs regarding adherence to antidepressant maintenance treatment (75 weeks) found that adherence was highest when the perceived need exceeded concerns about safety and lowest when concerns exceeded perceived need.20 In this study, some patients reported adhering to treatment because of safety concerns linked to withdrawal symptoms rather than a perceived need for the antidepressant per se. Finally, approximately 25% participants wrote about the alternative activities and treatments that they believed could aid recovery. One in six wrote about their perceptions of the importance of therapy or counseling either as an alternative to, or in combination with, antidepressant medication.

Henry's Tunnel
this wiki
"Henry's Tunnel" is the nickname given to the tunnel on the Main Line near Ballahoo. It got its name in 1922 after Henry refused to come out, claiming the rain would spoil his "lovely green paint with red stripes" and was subsequently bricked up. A second tunnel was bored alongside and Henry was eventually let out sometime before 1923 to help with the express. The tunnel later collapsed but was repaired in time for the unveiling of the Thin Clergyman's bust at Tidmouth.
In the first season of the television series, Henry stopped in the tunnel (like in the Railway Series). In the fourth season, an elephant blocked the tunnel and Henry had to take workmen to clear it. In the thirteenth season, while painted pink; James hid in the tunnel. In the nineteenth season, Thomas hid from Sir Topham Hatt in the tunnel after he lied about an accident.
- Henry's Tunnel has had numerous modifications throughout the years:
- Season 1:
- One tunnel bore had two tracks and the other bore had one track.
- Season 4:
- The numerous switch tracks and the siding disappeared.
- Season 7:
- A signal box and water tower had appeared and disappeared at the portal.
- Each bore had one track.
- Season 8:
- Both bores had two tracks.
- Season 13:
- The tunnel appeared to get shorter as you could see through it.
- Blue Mountain Mystery:
- The tunnel was seen in a flashback and it only had one track in each bore.
- The Adventure Begins:
- Two switch tracks were added in front of the signal box.
- The tracks became slightly curved on the opposite of the tunnel.
- Season 1:
- Wooden Railway (discontinued)
- Brio (discontinued)

Social media is all about interaction. Any content posted to these sites will—by definition—invite commentary. Rich online discussion means welcoming many points of view, including those you (i.e., your organization) buy 10000 twitter followers may not agree with. Think carefully about which messages you feel comfortable opening up to unpredictable responses and be prepared to handle a wide range of questions and comments. Using social media in the world of prevention may be challenging, but the pay-off in terms of community reach and engagement can be significant!Share information and ideas in as many ways as possible—including text, photos, drawings, slides, and video. Don't be afraid to experiment!Make it count. Give people something to talk about by posting content that is engaging and thought-provoking. Ask yourself, would you respond to what you just posted?Think small. You may be hoping for big results in the end, but small steps can get you there. Remember that each and every comment, "like", and "tweet" you get brings you closer to your goals.Be present. Make sure that program/organization representatives routinely monitor and actively participate in your social media efforts. Twitter users are accustomed to frequent tweets and Facebook fans tend to be fine with daily posts. Update Flickr and YouTube whenever you have new content.
Social media changes constantly. Accordingly, social media marketing strategies shift incessantly to keep up with the fast-paced virtual world. At SMO Pros, we've found that it's difficult, if not futile, to try to adapt buy twitter account with followers to every change rolled out by every social site. Instead, it pays to follow a few best practices and keep your finger on the pulse of the field as a whole. With that in mind, here are three key lessons on social media marketing strategy for 2015:ccording to TechRepublic, "Advertisers are increasingly moving towards an approach of targeting, messaging and measuring people." This applies to things like targeted advertising, retargeting ads and personalized content. Advertisers and marketers are constantly looking for new ways to cut through the clutter and reach their audiences with information created specifically for them. Bottom line: Your content must be targeted to the people you serve – otherwise it's just noise. Know your audience. Understand their interests and needs. Then you can create content and special offers to draw them in as customers.
In the previous installment of the brand-building series, we identified the necessary pieces to put in place to build a successful social media marketing plan. Using the working definition that strategic means specific buy twitter followers 5 and sequential, in this piece we'll roll up our sleeves and start the building process. First, some ground rules:The process needs to remain simple for quick learning (not necessarily easy). Some of you will approach the process already seasoned, just needing some fine tuning. Others will innately "get" the process, even though you've never formally put a plan together. But most of us need to learn the process of planning—it is a learned skill that is informed by knowledge, practice, experimentation, and experience.

Second to print quality, the most important factor in any printer purchase is running costs, with many people complaining of the perceived high costs of ink cartridges. Epson has tackled this problem with its range of EcoTank printers, which forsake cartridges in favour of built-in ink tanks that hold enough ink for two years of typical use. The EcoTank ET-4500 is a wireless-enabled all-in-one, holding ink for 4,000 mono and 6,500 colour pages.
Related: Best printer to buy in 2016
The only problem with this approach is that, even with a purchase price of £300 for the machine, its spec is more akin to that of a £60 device. It can't print automatic duplex pages, has only a mono LCD panel, no touchscreen and a slow print engine.
The printer has a 50-sheet ADF fitted to its scanner and in front of this – at a fixed angle – is a full-width control panel, which includes a number pad, navigation arrows and buttons for mono and colour copies. The display has a sensible menu layout and reasonable graphics.
The only paper tray, which has a capacity of just 100 sheets, sits at the back of the printer, making it easy to load. There are also USB and Ethernet sockets at the rear, supplemented by a wireless connection with easy WPS setup.
Setting up the Epson EcoTank ET-4500 for the first time involves breaking the caps off the four ink bottles, pulling the foil tops off them and squeezing the ink into the tanks at the right-hand end of the printer. We challenge you to complete this without getting ink on your fingers or desk.
It's also slightly weird that, when printing, the display scrolls "Check your ink levels regularly". This is on a machine that comes with two years' ink as standard. Shouldn't the machine monitor its own ink levels?
Epson quotes speeds of 9.2ppm for mono print and 4.5ppm for colour, neither of which is particularly quick. In our tests, which include page preparation time, the fastest we saw was 8.5ppm for mono print with our 20-page test, and 7.5ppm for the five-page document.
This isn't bad, but is easily bettered by less expensive machines such as the £80 Canon MAXIFY MB-2050, which manages 12.5ppm and 13.5ppm for five-page and 20-page prints respectively. The highest colour speed we saw from the EcoTank machine was a sluggish 2.7ppm, against 6.0ppm from the Canon.
A single-page colour copy took 39 seconds and a five-page mono copy from the ADF took a long-winded 2mins 28secs – the Canon MAXIFY MB-2050 took 28 seconds.
Print quality from the EcoTank ET-4500 is below average. These days, good inkjet print is almost indistinguishable from laser – but output from the EcoTank ET-4500 is quite obviously from a low-end inkjet. Black text is fuzzy and displays jiggles due to one head pass not aligning completely with the next.
Colour output is fair, although there are obvious dither patterns in some shades and, again, a vagueness to what should be sharp edges. Photos are well reproduced, at least.
Costs here are low, with the mono page coming out at 0.99p and the colour one at 1.25p. If you remove the paper cost of 0.7p, that's 0.29p and 0.55p per page, respectively. Compare this with the other front-runner, HP, whose Instant Ink subscription service offers 300 pages for £7.99 – a cost of 2.7p for any page, colour or mono.
You should also note that the ink supplied with the EcoTank is neither Epson-branded, Claria or DuraBrite; it's a thinner, unnamed product. Epson claims the new formulation is necessary because of the time the ink may sit in the tank, but it's one of the reasons for the relatively poor print quality.
It's difficult to compare this machine to rivals on a like-for-like basis, since its primary purpose is to keep ink costs down – and it achieves this like no other device, apart from other EcoTanks of course. You're paying for all the ink up-front and it's heavily discounted – but even so, a machine such as the Canon PIXMA MX495 is probably a good match. That machine is slower, costs far more to run, but is only around £44, a far more approachable up-front cost.
If page costs are your primary concern then Epson's EcoTank ET-4500 delivers, with running costs lower than any other inkjet we can think of. However, the rest of the machine is very low spec – more like a £60 all-in-one than one costing £300. So while you can get faster machines with better output for a lot less money, you won't get one that costs less to run.

The Move
Mom had promised us that our new house would be the key factor to our new life, but I never believed her. Krystal, my younger sister, hadn't felt any less happier when she had to leave her friends behind. She did choose mom's side during the divorce, but she hadn't been planning to move across the country.
I had chosen dad's side. Not because he spoiled me or because I was daddy's girl. I had chosen his side because of my mother. I had argued, but she had won custody over my sister and I because we're both underage. I missed dad's jokes and the way that he made any tense situation relaxed, but now he was hours away from us and he wasn't coming here to Viewville in Ontario any time soon.
The town was what it exclaimed to be on the welcome sign before we began driving down the quiet streets: Welcome to Viewville: where every sight you have ever wanted to witness can be possible. The town rested on top of a large hill that overlooked a forest and there were only a few houses running up the road. Mom had told us how we were going to attend this massive high school down the hill and that our house was in one of the safest parts of the town.
Krystal, tiny and blond, was asleep beside me as mom drove our used Honda Civic quietly up the hill. I looked out the window and saw several families passing their summer day together doing small town activities: playing catch, picking flowers, jumping through sprinklers; that type of stuff. I sighed loudly and put my earphones on. I could see my mother's mouth moving, but my music was blasting in my ears. Beside me Krystal poked me, her eyes were red from sleep.
"What?" I said as I took out my earphones.
"We're here!" Mom said from the driver's seat, ignoring the annoyance in my voice.
Before I explain exactly how creepy this house was, I should introduce myself. I'm Adelaine Marie, I think my mom must've miswritten my name on the birth certificate because I was sure that an M was missing in there somewhere. I'm sixteen and I am a Taurus, which according to my sister, who is fifteen, explains why I do everything that I do. I have annoying flyaway blond hair and my dad's green eyes. My light freckles over my nose belong to my mom and so does my petite form.
The sun barely escaped through the large oak tree in front of the large house and I looked up in awe, despite my ideas about this move. It was creepy, but also beautiful. It was a modern brick house, but the aura was something different altogether. The front door was a neutral blue and the windows of the bedrooms on the second floor were large and open. There were bushes lining the side of the house leading away from the front door in either directions. The lawn grass was yellowing and the shadow of the house fell upon us.
"How long has it been since someone's been here?" Krystal asked the question that I had been thinking.
"Just..." my mom stuttered. "...a year."
"A year?!" Krystal exclaimed and leaned back on the hood of our red car.
Mom walked around the car to the trunk as she talked about the moving truck being here soon and I ignored her and Krystal discussing what the inside looked like. I walked a bit closer to the house and onto the lawn, where I felt the dead lawn grass crunching under my feet. I looked up into a window on the second level where the silhouette of a girl stood watching us, the new arrivals.

Dyslipidemia has been shown to be a risk factor for increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in adult patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stages 2–4. In patients on dialysis, a paradoxical correlation has been found between low cholesterol values and increased mortality rates. No data exist in children. Treatment with statins has been convincingly shown to both reduce blood lipid levels and mortality rates from cardiovascular disease in adult patients in CKD stages 2–4. There is no strong literature support for treating patients on dialysis or after having had a transplant. Data on benefits of statin therapy do not exist in children with CKD. There are many differences between adult and paediatric kidney patients, and I caution on extrapolating the findings in adult patients to children. Studies are thus needed to evaluate the benefits and potential problems of statin treatment in children with CKD.

About Scrapendipity Designs
I started designing years and years ago by making a few things here and there for me to use in my own scrapbooking and quilting projects, but it wasn't until late 2012 that I decided to try and sell some of my designs. I started with my applique designs since I had been making those for my own quilting projects, and that evolved into my iron on transfers.
It has been so much fun over the last year to draw up new designs and work with customers to make designs for their own special projects. It has made me very proud to see my hand drawn designs used in various projects all across the globe! I have seen them used for t-shirts, quilts, stockings, wall art, and even cake art. The uses my customers come up with are astounding! I am very proud of this little business I have already built and look forward to the future it holds.

This site is dedicated to the people of the Olde North State, some remembered and many forgotten, who gave their lives and fortunes to build and rebuild our great land, that ultimately, freedom and justice should prevail.
This site is dedicated to the brave men and women of the Old North State, both those who fought for the Confederacy, and those who fought for the Union, during the period of American History known as the Civil War, 1861-1865.
North Carolina was not one of the great "Cotton" States, and many non-slaveholders of eastern swamps and western mountains felt no need to involve themselves in the preservation of a slave system of which they had little part. In the Central Piedmont region of the state the Quakers were particularly opposed to slavery, and in fact the underground railroad began in this region. But "Secession Fever" swept through the Southland, and North Carolina found herself in the middle of that turmoil.
John Willis Ellis was Governor of North Carolina at that time, and while he was more inclined to agree with those who would favor secession, he was not entirely supportive of the radical steps taken by South Carolina with the firing upon Fort Sumpter. Governor Ellis, in fact , refused to grant permission to the citizens of Wilmington to take over the forts on the Cape Fear on the grounds that he had no authority to do so. The people acted on their own, however, upon news that a United States Cutter was on its way to Fort Caswell, and seized Fort Caswell and Fort Johnson on January 9, 1861. When Governor Ellis learned of these actions, he demanded the immediate evacuation of the forts, and sent a message to President Buchanan to insure that the President received a true account of the situation. Secretary of War, Joseph Holt sent word to Ellis to insure him that the President had no intentions of garrisoning the forts of the State.
The new President Lincoln, in April of 1861, called for 75,000 troops to suppress the "Insurrection" in South Carolina. It was this action that finally pushed North Carolina into the Confederacy. North Carolina was ordered to furnish two regiments of Militia for immediate service , and Governor John Willis Ellis responded immediately to this request:
"Your dispatch is received, and if genuine, which its extraordinary character leads me to doubt, I have to say in reply, that I regard the levy of troops made by the administration for the purpose of subjugating the states of the South, as a violation of the Constitution, and as a gross usurption of power. I can be no party to this wicked violation of the laws of the country and to this war upon the liberties of a free people. You can get no troops from North Carolina."

Attend the Center for Middle East Studies Lecture "The Remaking of Asia" on January 24th
January 23, 2013
Come attend the Center for Middle East Studies lecture "The Remaking of Asia: What Does the Shift of Power from the West to the East Portend?" by Pankaj Mishra with a response from Haider Khan (Professor of Economics, Korbel) The lecture is this Thursday, January 24th at 12:00 PM in Sié 150 of Ben Cherrington Hall
At the end of 19th century, Asia was regarded as a collection of ruined countries by Western colonial powers. But a new era began in 1905 with Japan's unexpected triumph in the Russo-Japanese War. Recently, the spotlight has been on Asia as China and India follow Japan as rising powers. These Asian countries are not necessarily aspiring to be the "next" United States. Rather, they are determined to make their mark in the global arena without succumbing to powerful Western influences. The assertiveness of Asian powers calls into question many previous assumptions, among them the notion that development and modernization equal Westernization. Pankaj Mishra will examine some of these shattered verities of Western power, and also analyze the diverse ways in which the rise of Asia might shape our common future.
Pankaj Mishra is the author of From the Ruins of Empire: The Intellectuals Who Remade Asia, Temptations of the West: How to Be Modern in India, Pakistan, Tibet, and Beyond, An End to Suffering: The Buddha in the World, and the novel The Romantics. He is a columnist for Bloomberg View, a regular commentator on the BBC, and a frequent contributor to the New York Review of Books, the London Review of Books, The New Yorker and The Guardian, among other publications. He was named one of the 100 Top Global Thinkers of 2012 by Foreign Policy magazine.
Co-sponsored by the Center for Middle East Studies, the Center for China-United States Cooperation, the Asian Studies Program and the History Department.
Register now for the ILW West 2013 Conference "Int'l Law and Human Security in the 21st Century"
January 23, 2013
On March 2nd, the International Legal Studies Program (ILSP) at Denver Law will host the Western Regional Conference of the American Branch of the International Law Association (ABILA). This year's conference is on . Click here for registration! CLE credits are pending.
"Human Security" is a concept which is increasingly impacting economic, social and political policies. Yet, as one legal scholar notes: [d]espite its relevance to central questions of international law, human security has until very recently received little attention from international lawyers." This year's ILW-West Conference addresses the critical question: "What does "Human Security" mean for international law as the 21st Century progresses"? During this year's ILW-West Conference, distinguished international law scholars and practitioners will discuss the importance and the role of "Human Security" as it relates to international environmental law, trade, human rights and international criminal law.
Participants include: Professor Ruth Wedgwood of Johns Hopkins University, current ABILA president; Professor David Akerson of the University of Denver Sturm College of Law; Professor Ronald A. Brand of the University of Pittsburgh School of Law; Professor Richard J. Finkmoore of California Western School of Law; Dr. Anita Halvorssen, consultant and Adjunct Professor of Law, University of Denver Sturm College of Law; Professor Robert Lutz, Southwestern Law School; Professor James A.R. Nafziger of Willamette University School of Law; Professor Ved P. Nanda of the University of Denver Sturm College of Law; Professor John Noyes of California Western School of Law; and Professor Annecoos Wiersema of the University of Denver Sturm College of Law.
The ABILA is part of the global International Law Association (ILA)—the preeminent international non-governmental organization involved in developing and restating international law. Currently, for example, the ILA has consultative status with a number of United Nations specialized agencies as an international non-governmental organization and plays a unique role in drafting treaties, resolutions, and other international instruments.
Internationally, the ABILA chooses and nominates committee members for the ILA to help prepare draft treaties and studies in collaboration with lawyers from other global branches of the ILA. Nationally, ABILA forms its own committees which advocate for particular positions on international legal issues. Additionally, the ABILA performs a variety of educational and professional services through its U.S. national and regional International Law Weekends (ILW), which generally draw 1000 to 2000 participants each year.
The conference will go until 4:00PM with a reception to follow.
For more information about the conference, please visit the website or contact Karlyn K. Shorb at firstname.lastname@example.com.
