By both building on and seamlessly integrating with OO and component-oriented paradigms, distributed object middleware has made the development of distributed applications easier than ever in the past. But extra requirements - performance, predictability, scalability - can increase the complexity and therefore the challenge of building robust distributed software. This is when details of the distributed object middleware suddenly become critical and must be understood thoroughly. And this is also when developers, consultants, and especially software architects, need to understand the inner workings of the middleware products they use - not just their APIs.
This book explains the internal structure and behaviour of distributed object middleware in an easily comprehensible form: patterns. Since practically all available distributed object middleware systems are built on the same set of patterns, understanding the patterns will provide developers with a thorough and deep understanding of how a particular middleware works. To illustrate the patterns, the book includes three technology projections for:

We've tended to have mixed feelings about the sound quality offered by Bose's headphones. The IE2 are muffled and muggy, the QuietComfort 15 pleasant and smooth, but hardly high-end given the costs involved.
The Bose AE2 take quite a different approach to these pairs, and to a surprising extent. They strive for clarity and a touch of the high-end vibe more than any Bose pair we've heard before, and it's a welcome change. Although less luxurious-sounding than the QuietComfort 15 and QC3 – with less warmth – they compare well on a pure sound quality level. That speaks in the AE2's favour given they cost around £150 less.
Among their Bose brethren , the AE2 give the best impression of sonic balance, with a wide, impressively open sound for a reasonably-priced closed headphone. The top-end is coherent and the low-end punchy and almost perfectly judged. In all honesty, we were surprised by quite how well they perform in some respects.
There is, however, some evidence of Bose's usual psychoacoustic strategy. This is where tuning is based not on actual accuracy and flat frequency response but what the ear will perceive as positive. Turning up the critical listening dial, there appears to be some odd dips in the mid-range, leaving it sounding a little hollow and lacking detail. Cutting back on mids in this fashion is part of what lets the Bose AE2 sound so open and clear, but it robs vocals in particular of some of their detail and presence.
As such, these are certainly not headphones for critical listening, but for pure enjoyment we'd pick them over the more expensive Beats Solo HD in a heartbeat.
Some have complained that the Bose AE2 headphones' cod-analytical approach makes them sound a little harsh, but it's not something we've experienced in our testing. They're actually rather adept at managing sibilant material.
They're not without their problems, but these are probably the best headphones Bose has produced, from a technical perspective at least.
Bose is a brand often criticised for offering poor value, whacking up prices to offset significant marketing costs. However, in these days of so many high-profile headphones, backed by major names in music, the Bose AE2 look like rather good value. Excellent comfort, highly enjoyable sound quality and a design that no longer marks you out as someone who probably has poor musical taste mean these are our new top pick from the Bose range. Just make sure you don't need noise cancellation, as you don't get it here.
Although the Bose AE2 headphones don't offer Bose's signature noise cancellation technology, a much cheaper price point and more balanced sound signature mark them out as an excellent alternative to the QuietComfort 15s. These are very comfortable cans, and while they're not quite the last word in audio quality, they outdo many style sets. For an out and about workhorse pair, these are among our favourites.

Trustedreviews opinion on these headphones is one of the most positive around and it wasn't here when I looked for a good pair of cans. I had some mixed feelings after reading the other reviews but eventually decided to give it a go. And I don't regret. They are the most comfortable headphones I've ever tried. Mid range is often criticised here and some complain on quite specific bass which emphasises very low, hardly audible frequencies. Yes, I can see what they are talking about but for me these are really a matter of taste and/or equipment. I am also not a fan of overwhelming, punchy bass. A bit of fine EQ tuning can do a lot here and many adjust EQ settings to match their preferences anyway. I am really delighted with the sound they can produce.
No doubt they offer great comfort and an aesthetic appeal, only one problem. The sound output is quite low! I compare it to its equally priced cousin- the Bose OE2. They are arguably less comfortable than the AE2 and don't appeal as pleasing as them, but they are louder, more portable and come with a better storage case. The low volume is the only complaint I have on the AE2s, other than that, perfect pair. good review.

How to switch fluorescent lights
I'm making my own lighting system for my aquarium, and what I would like to know is this:
I'm planning on using 1 ballast meant to drive 4 lights to drive 2 (overdrive the lights 2x). Therefore, two wires would run to one end of each bulb, instead of one wire running to one bulb. Anyway, I would like to be able to do two things - switch each bulb on independently (i.e. not the whole ballast, just one bulb at a time); and I would like to be able to switch whether I am overdriving the bulbs either 1x or 2x. In other words, my idea is to install a switch which will connect either zero, 1, or 2 of the 'hot' wires to the end of each bulb. Will this work, or does a certain number of wires need to be in use at any given time in order for power to be going through it? It is a GE432-120RES-DIY ballast, it says it can drive either 3 or 4 T8's of different sizes. Incidentally, I will be running T12's, which as I understand it may have a slightly shorter life due to the instant start on this ballast which is made for the higher power requirements of T8's. This doesn't concern me since I have to replace the bulbs at least yearly anyway.
First and formost, you can not over drive the lamp. The lamp will light to the brightness designed, and will not be dimmer than designed.
Also using a t-8 ballast to drive t-12 lamps will not only shorten the life of the lamps, but the ballast as well.
Your best bet is to find something made for this application.
Yeah, bad idea, try this sight.
Overdriving lamps is a very common application for reef tanks - just do a search on ODNO (over driven normal output). I'm already doing it on another tank, and it provides approximately a 50% increase in brightness.
My question isn't whether I can overdrive the lamps, it's whether I can switch the lines powering the bulbs independently.

Samsung has posted its first fall in quarterly profits for more than two years and warned of more pain ahead, fuelling fears that the booming smartphone market may be reaching saturation.
The world's biggest smartphone and TV maker reported a net profit of 7.30trn (£4bn) won, down from 8.24trn (£4.6bn) won a year earlier.
The company's was weighed down by falling margins at its IT & Mobile division, where operating profit fell 18%. Mobile sales, the company's main earnings driver, fell 9% in the quarter.
The South Korean electronics giant warned that it expects sales in key divisions to continue to fall in the first quarter of 2014 with TVs entering an "off-season" and competition intensifying in in the smartphone and tablet markets.
Samsung is under pressure to present a strategy for continued growth. While the firm has a dominant position in the Western smartphone market, the company faces intense competition in the crucial Chinese market from lower-cost homegrown rivals such as Xiaomi.
Despite the decline in profits in the last quarter Samsung posted record annual earnings, with profits jumping 28% to 30.5 trn won (£17bn).

For the past five years I've been attending the Gluten and Allergy Free Expo in Chicago's suburbs. Every year I find new gluten free products, see what's new with my favorite gluten free companies, and pretty much eat my face off with all of the samples and goodies everyone is handing out.
Last year, I volunteered at the Udi's booth with the infamous gluten free marketing extraordinaire, Heather Collins.
|Don't we look cute? Thanks to Sarah from Celiac in the City for snappin' this one last year!
|thinkThin necklaces!
Red Apple Lipstick. This company was recommended by The Celiac Diva. Samples were also in the Nourished goodie bag. Since I love all things lip gloss, I stopped by to check them out and instantly loved them. They are filled with all things awesome - gluten free, paraben free, allergen free, vegan, cruelty free, and made in the USA. Plus their gloss was smooth, shiny, and minty. I left with a new tube of lip gloss and have been wearing it everyday since.
The Gluten Free Bar were also at the Expo. I've written about them before, but I was excited to see that they are whipping up some new flavors. I can't divulge any secrets, but I will say that I was able to have a sneak peek taste test of two potential new flavors and I hope they decide to go with them. The peanut butter GFB, chocolate GFB, and their newest GFB, the cranberry toasted almond are all available and delicious!
Simply Sprouted Way Better Snacks. Their six flavors are Simply Sunny Multi-Grain, Simply Sweeet Potato, Simply Beyond Black Bean, Simply Unbeatable Blues, No Salt Naked Blues, and Simply So Sweet Chili. They were simply delicious. Unfortunately the people working the table weren't too open to chatting. After trying to ask questions about their products without luck, I moved along to the next booth. The chips were mighty tasty though!
Asian Jazz potion and I was hooked. I can only describe it as the smooth, nutty flavor of peanut butter with a surprisingly little kick that all of a sudden hits you. I cannot wait to spice up a stir-fry with that Asian Jazz! (Spoiler alert for an upcoming post?)
Crave Bake Shop table to see Kyra and Jamie. I met them at dinner the night before and they were too much fun. Kyra is a Cupcake Wars Champion, so naturally I had to chat her up about baking. Her story sounded like mine, but hers turned out better. She had a desk job she was unhappy with so she quit and enrolled in culinary school. While her school didn't make any exceptions to accommodate her either, she stuck with it. She amped up her other senses to figure out the right texture, consistency, and made her recipes work. And look where it got her! Cupcake Wars Champ! Don't forget to tune in May 20th to see her again on Cupcake Champions!
Tomorrow I'm off to the Celiac Disease Foundation's Annual Conference in California. In addition to the conference program, there is also a vendor fair. Perhaps I'll have more great finds to share with you? I hope so!

Cognitive Dimwits: The Unbearable Rightness of Being
By Leilla Matsui and Stella La Chance
Cognitive dissonance occurs when a long held assumption or existing belief is thrown into question by new or contradictory information, causing a person to reinterpret this evidence after it has been presented to justify a falsely held notion. The theory refers to the phenomenon of the mind's failure to assume its equilibrium after having to accept an unwelcome intrusion of this kind into its "comfortably held assumption zone.

Thank you, very well said. But you ladies aren't making me feel any better, and I hope it can't get much worse. I need a shrink.
What will become of us? What should become?
The neocons have perfected the art of refining lies until they resemble the truth. Of course without the help of the corporate media, it would be impossible for them to maintain their illusions all by themselves.
We need more people in politics willing to speak the truth and poke through these illusions. Only a (heroic) minority of Democrats do this. We need to continue to vote for them, and dump the rest of the corporate shills.
The "Democratic" corporate shills will continue to serve the interests of the billionaires as long as we continue voting for them. Don't be afraid of voting for a Green or a Socialist. We need truth and voting for a "Democrat" who parrots the corporate lies only perpetuates the problem.
Operation Paperclip - Hitler's Best & Brightest Machiavellian Propagandists were smuggled into the US after WWII. The US then
spent billions under the guise of "Mental health" research to
perfect this "Art of Deception."
I think a very common post WWII American "as-if-true" perception is
that the "Fascists" were limited to Italy, Germany and Japan. People
fail to realize that "Social Darwinism" was world wide as the new
god "Eugenics Science" proved through their pretzel logic once and for all that "All Men are NOT Created Equal" . . . thus the Supermen, the old world rulers finally had a Machiavellian "Pretext" to fight Liberty, Freedom and Democracy . . . Bullshit science,
mass media, and Fear of authority are all you need to make a nice
Fascist cocktail.

A new investment which offers hedge fund-style returns to small investors was launched by Standard Life this week. Hedge funds typically demand huge minimum investments, high charges and long lock-in periods. But this is open for investments as low as £500 with an annual charge of 1.5%.
The Global Absolute Return Strategies fund will mix traditional investments in shares and bonds with new strategies such as bets on the dollar/sterling exchange rate, with derivatives used to minimise downside exposure.
Standard Life is expecting the fund to give investors an annual return equal to Libor (currently 5.7%) plus another 5%, before charges are taken. The fund was first launched in June 2006, but until now has only been open to "institutional" investors such as pension funds, which have put nearly £700m into the fund.
Since 2006 it has enjoyed a gross return of 9.8%, despite the falls in equity markets following the onset of the credit crunch.
At any one time the fund will follow 17-18 different strategies, overseen by Standard Life's "Strategic Investment Group", staffed by the company's "foremost thinkers". Standard Life is one of the UK's biggest investment houses, with £130bn under management. For more information go to standardlifeinvestments.co.uk.

Baritone DongWon Kim to Give Artist Diploma Recital, January 20 in NEC's Jordan Hall
First Student Admitted to New Artist Diploma in Opera Program Operated in Conjunction with Opera Boston
Singer Has Already Appeared in Opera Boston's Tancredi as the Villain Orbazzano
Baritone DongWon Kim, the first student admitted to NEC's prestigious Artist Diploma in Opera program, will give his first Boston recital, January 20 at 8 p.m. in NEC's Jordan Hall. The Artist Diploma in Opera was created this year and operates in conjunction with Opera Boston, building on an apprenticeship program with the company that debuted in 2008-09. Kim has already appeared in a major role, the villain Orbazzano, in Opera Boston's Tancredi, which was produced in October. He will also sing the title role in the Conservatory's spring opera production, Mozart's Don Giovanni.
For his recital, Kim will sing a program of songs and arias by Handel, Mozart, Massenet, Rossini, Ravel and Mahler. The concert is free and open to the public.
About the Artist Diploma
Candidates for NEC's Artist Diploma possess not only great talent, but also the ability and determination to realize that talent in the contemporary musical world. They may already have embarked on solo performing careers or may be on the brink of such careers. The two-year program they pursue at NEC is tailored to their individual needs. Working in close collaboration with studio faculty and advisors, Artist Diploma students focus on performance, deepening their artistry in close collaboration with master teachers. At NEC, Kim is studying with Lorraine Nubar. He is recipient of the Wendy Shattuck '75 Presidential Scholarship in Vocal Studies.
A native of Korea, Mr. Kim has performed extensively in Italy, as well as Korea. From 2003-2006, he was a member of the National Opera of Korea, where he sang such roles as Germont in La Traviata, Figaro in Il Barbiere di Seville, Rigoletto in Rigoletto, Marcello in La Boheme, Ping in Turandot, Escamillo in Carmen, Belcore in L'elisir d'amore, and Amonasro in Aida. Mr. Kim made his European debut in 1998 as Valentine in Faust conducted by Maestro Peter Maag at the Teatro Comunale di Treviso. Subsequent performances in Italy included the Teatro Regio in Parma, the Teatro Rosetum in Milan, and the Teatro Civico di Tortona.
In concert, Mr. Kim has appeared as soloist with the Shanghai Symphony Orchestra, the Euro-Asian Philharmonic, and the KBS Symphony Orchestra.
Among his numerous awards are first prizes in the Toti Dal Monte International Competition and the Daeung Lee National Competition. Additionally, he is the recipient of scholarships to study with Renata Scotto at the Teatro Regio in Parma and with Virginia Zeani at the Academia Verdiana in Bussetto.
Beyond his performing career, Mr. Kim is an accomplished teacher, having taught voice at Seoul National University and HanYang University in Korea.

Jan. 25, 2007
The Tennessee men's tennis team begins its dual-match season Friday when it hosts Memphis and UT-Chattanooga in a doubleheader at the Goodfriend Indoor Tennis Center.
"We are looking to get off to a good start Friday," men's head coach Sam Winterbotham said. "Memphis always comes and competes hard, and they always have a good team. UT-Chattanooga is coached by a former Vol Carlos Garcia (1984-86) and you know he will have his team ready to come in and knock off his former team."
The Vols match against Memphis is scheduled to begin at 2 p.m. UT has won all eight previous meetings with the Tigers. Last season, the Vols knocked off Memphis 4-2 behind strong play from Bobby Cameron and Adam Hubble.
Tennessee and UT-Chattanooga are scheduled to take the court at 7 p.m. The Vols have won 10 of the 11 all-time meetings between the two schools. The Mocs defeated Tennessee Tech 7-0 on Sunday in its first match of the season.
Garcia, the Mocs' coach lettered at Tennessee from 1984-86. He also served as an assistant coach for UT from 1994-99.
Tennessee is led into its season-opener by juniors Bobby Cameron and Kaden Hensel. Cameron, ranked 24th in singles and Hensel, ranked 35th, both advanced to the quarterfinals of the SEC Coaches' Indoor Championships last weekend. The duo also comprises Tennessee's top-ranked doubles team. Cameron and Hensel are ranked fifth in doubles.
Friday also marks the debut of new head coach Sam Winterbotham. Winterbotham was the head coach at Colorado from 2003-06 and was named Tennessee head coach in October after Chris Mahony left to pursue a career in Australia.
All matches at the Goodfriend Indoor Tennis Center are free to the public. Live stats can be found at UTsports.com

I have used CJ daily fix, DC no-poo and L'Oreal Evercreme. I love cleansing conditioners; they do the job of cleansing while also lightly moisturizing. It's easy for me to over-condition (I have fine hair) when I co-wash using regular conditioner, but this doesn't happen with the cleansing conditioner. I also don't worry about product buildup or the accidental cone, as these have cleansing ingredients that will remove them. My favorite is the CJ daily fix, but the others are good too.
2c/3a, botticelli/wavy/'swavy (huh?)
fine, dense, normal porosity/elasticity, dry climate
My favorite brands are Kinky Curly, As I am, Curly Kinks, Curl Junkie, and Darcy's Botanicals. Also love sealing with oils (loving argan oil right now) and styling with jelly products (KCCC is my current favorite).
Mostly trying to keep it simple!

Hello all my dear friends we have been MIA from Catster for a while now mom's dad was diagnosed with a terminal illness just before the holidays last year. She has seen some rough times and her dad is still fighting but the doctors cannot offer him any hope.
It was so good for mom to get emails from catster telling her that so many of my friends had thought of me and dropped by my page on my rainbow bridge day.
Mom so misses it here and longs for the days when she can come back, we love yall and thank you for loving us.
Skids kitty angel
wow tonight my mom just read this over on Facebook and it took her back to her last days with me. So many things here speak to her for it was exactly the way she felt.
Last Days
Wobbly walks with whiskers frayed
Once bright eyes dimmed with weary days
Sink piled high with dirty dishes
Bottomless tears whisper desperate wishes
Curled round frail body through the night
Holding onto love with all my might
Pills and droppers and apologies
Weak paw protests my heart to bleed
Clean your fur and gentle caresses
Encourage relief - Ill clean your messes
I beg the universe, I curse the sky, luminous eyes look to me as in "why?"
I always had answers
Could always protect you
But now on the threshold
Of a life without you
Empty comforter of your sun streamed naps
Empty arms, empty laps
Crumbs of spooned meals in my bed
take the place where you lay your head
An entire year of slow tearing apart
Different sections of my heart
Little by little - battles lost and won
But even now some of you is gone
Forever- the word that burns with grief
Our deep bond cut short way too brief
On your journey a part of me goes your way.
My sad soul will never be the same.
Tonight mom had water in her eyes as she read all the pretty notes and looked at the pretty pictures. So many memories flooded into her mind of our many years together. If you read the little poem I copied into my diary right before this current entry you will see your angel kitties in the kitties you are now giving your heart to.
Calie is currently in the spot by mom I used to occupy (normally it's Tiny) Calie is growing up and she is bonding with mom more each day. Tonight as mom talked to her in a whisper cause it is late and time to 'night night' Calie spoke up right out loud to her like I used to do. There is a little of me in each kitty mom as given a part of her heart to since I left. There is one trick I had that no one has duplicated and dad has tied to make them duplicate it and that is "talkin on the phone to mom" MOL dad tries to get a kitty to talk to mom every time she calls him and no cat there has mastered it yet. I will be back with many thanks to all my dear catster friends that made this day so special right now I want to send out a very big thank you to all the angels that put together the pawsome party at the angel inn!
Do you see your angel kitties in the eyes and mannerisms of the kitties you are sharing your heart and home with?

Kid Cudi breaks down the custom spacesuit he's wearing on the "Cud Life" Tour in his interview with Complex Magazine.
What made you decide that this tour was the right time to have a customized spacesuit?
Well, when I look back at the Indicud album coming out, I realize that it was a big transition for me as an artist. I wanted to absorb the music and take my live show to the next level.
With that train of thought, I took a step back and started to think about ways I could bring an experience to the kids at the show. Leading up to the storyline of Man on the Moon III, I feel like everything that¹s happening up to now is the prelude. With the way Indicud left off, it was like I went back to the moon to gain some peace of mind. I jumped back in my ship and left Earth after I was resurrected from the death of Mr. Rager in Man on the Moon II.
So this is part of the warm-up for Man on the Moon III.
This is me thinking about the trilogy and the theme of the story to show what Man on the Moon III is going to be, subject-matter wise. I thought it would be cool to give people some type of Moon Man visual, which I¹ve never done before. It¹s always been metaphorical, but coming up with the suit idea just hit me.
How did the process of the suit being made start?
I reached out to my boy Omarr Rambert who works with Jaden Smith after I saw the After Earth suit in the preview. I was watching the trailer, and I thought, "Man, that suit is fresh. It¹d be dope if I had something like that on the road." Then I just started wondering if it would be possible.
Omar made some calls and got me in touch with José Hernandez, who created the suit for After Earth and many other films. He¹s been a part of so many things, whether it¹s X-Men, Spider-Man, or Tron. The dude¹s work is remarkable and he pays close attention to detail. He¹s a genius. Linking up with him was awesome because he understood my vision. We went back and forth a couple times on the designs, but once we had it, we had it. Then everything came together.
What are some special features that, to the untrained eye, people may not catch?
Well, the first special feature is that there¹s a zip-hole for me to take a bathroom breaknot kiddingthat no one knows about. There¹s that. Also, it¹s really comfortable. We did a full-body scan so that it would be totally designed for my body, and it fits really well. It¹s actually a bit of a workout on stage, and it feels awesome to be performing in it and sweating.
Outside of that, the detail on the backpack is something that we paid close attention to, because we wanted to have my ears hidden. José got the measurements and created the little hidden space in the book bag with wires so the antenna can come out, and I can adjust the volume on the pack as well. So that¹s a dope little custom feature, as opposed to back in the day, where I had to reach behind on my back pocket and turn up the volume. Now the pack is hidden, and it¹s not such an eyesore.

Mobile Boarding Passes - My First Attempt in December 2008
Posted by Julie Ask on May 25, 2009
- 361 Recommendations
- 0 comments
My first attempt at using a mobile boarding pass was back in December 2008 with Continental Airlines. I was flying from Cleveland, OH to San Francisco, CA. I used a PC to log in and opted to use a mobile boarding pass rather than print a boarding pass. I used a URL sent to my Gmail account to open up a web page with the boarding pass on my iPhone.
The boarding pass was easy to get on the cell phone, but hard to use in the airport because the right technology, processes and ground crew education were not in place. A mobile strategy can't stop with the design of the mobile component only - there must also be consideration and design of the processes and education for the folks interacting with the cell phone technology in the physical location.
Here is an account of what happened at the airport:
I walked up to the counter to check first if the mobile boarding pass would work. I didn't have confidence. The agent looked at me and in the most polite, kind manner said, "Honey, you need a printed boarding pass to get on that plane." I smiled as she printed out a boarding pass for me, and I thanked her for her help.
I proceeded to the security line. My phone is timed to turn off every 60 seconds. Each time I it turns off, I need to enter a security code for it to turn on. So, as I moved through the security line juggling my bags, laptop, etc., I kept tapping my phone to keep the screen lit.
Finally, I reach the TSA agent. I extend my phone with its brightly lit screen with a bar code on it to her. She doesn't want to hold the phone. Instead, she asks me to enlarge the bar code and information so that she can see it from a distance. I do so. She nods and hands me a piece of laminated paper. One is supposed to hold her boarding pass while walking through the metal detectors, but a cell phone must go through the scanner. Dilemma. Hence, I am holding a piece of laminated paper. I carry the paper through security and hand it to a TSA agent on the other end.
I repeat much of this process while I am boarding the plane - tapping my phone to ensure that the screen with the boarding pass information stays lit. I have the added stress of hoping the 3G connection persists throughout the airport so that I can show the web page without much difficulty.

Hypopituitarism is a condition in which the pituitary gland does not produce normal amounts of some or all of its hormones.
Alternative Names
Pituitary insufficiency
The pituitary gland is a small structure that is located just below the brain. It is attached by a stalk to the hypothalamus. The hypothalamus is the area of the brain that controls the pituitary gland's function.
The hormones released by the pituitary gland (and their functions) are:
In hypopituitarism, there is a lack of 1 or more pituitary hormones. Lack of a hormone leads to loss of function in the gland or organ the hormone controls. For example, lack of TSH leads to loss of normal function of the thyroid gland.
Hypopituitarism may be caused by:
Sometimes, hypopituitarism is due to uncommon immune system or metabolic diseases, such as:
Hypopituitarism is also a rare complication after pregnancy of a condition called Sheehan syndrome.
Symptoms of hypopituitarism include any of the following:
Symptoms may develop slowly and may vary greatly, depending upon:
Other symptoms that may occur with this disease:
Exams and Tests
To diagnose hypopituitarism, there must be low hormone levels due to a problem with the pituitary gland. The diagnosis must also rule out diseases of the organ that is affected by this hormone.
Tests may include:
Levels of a pituitary hormone may be high in the bloodstream if you have a pituitary tumor that is producing too much of that hormone. The tumor may crush other cells of the pituitary, leading to low levels of other hormones.
If hypopituitarism is caused by a tumor, you may need surgery to remove the tumor. Radiation therapy may also be needed.
You will need lifelong hormone medicines to replace hormones that are no longer made by organs under the control of the pituitary gland. These may include:
Drugs are also available to treat related infertility in men and women.
Outlook (Prognosis)
Hypopituitarism is usually permanent. It requires lifelong treatment with 1 or more medicines. But you can expect a normal life span.
Possible Complications
Side effects of medicines can develop. Stopping corticosteroid and thyroid supplementation can be life threatening.
When to Contact a Medical Professional
Call your health care provider if you develop symptoms of hypopituitarism.
In most cases, the disorder is not preventable. Awareness of risk may allow early diagnosis and treatment.

AMD Sets the New Standard for Price, Performance, and Power for the Datacenter
AMD Sets the New Standard for Price, Performance, and Power for the Datacenter
AMD Opteron 6000 Series platform with Direct Connect Architecture 2.0 delivers more cores, more memory for less money1
Up to 119 percent improved performance while maintaining low price and power2
SUNNYVALE, Calif. -3/29/2010
AMD (NYSE: AMD) announces availability of a new server platform featuring the world's first 8- and 12-core x86 processor for the high-volume 2P and value 4P server market. The AMD Opteron 6000 Series platform addresses the unmistakable needs of server customers today - workload-specific performance, power efficiency, and overall value - while delivering more cores and more memory for less money.3 Leading OEMs including HP, Dell, Acer Group, Cray, and SGI are introducing new systems based on this highly scalable and reliable platform.
"As AMD has done before, we are again redefining the server market based on current customer requirements," said Patrick Patla, vice president and general manager, Server and Embedded Divisions, AMD. "The AMD Opteron 6000 Series platform signals a new era of server value, significantly disrupts today's server economics and provides the performance-per-watt, value and consistency customers demand for their real-world data center workloads."
The new AMD Opteron 6000 Series platform features include:
- The industry's only 8- and 12-core server processors performing at up to two times the level of AMD's previous generation 6-core processors, including an 88 percent increase in integer performance4 and a 119 percent increase in floating point performance2.
- Enhanced integrated memory controller supporting four channels of DDR3 memory for up to a 2.5x improvement in overall memory bandwidth.5
- Thirty-three percent more memory channels per processor than competitive 2P solutions.6
- 50% higher DIMM capacity compared to previous generations, with up to 12 per processor, increasing the available memory overall and improving virtualization, database and HPC applications.
- AMD 5600 Series chipset with I/O virtualization capability, HyperTransport 3.0 technology and PCI Express® 2.0.
- Removal of the "4P tax", since the same processors can be used in both 2P and 4P designs, and 4P-capable processors are now the same price as 2P-capable processors, bringing greatly improved value to the 4P space.
- Unprecedented price/performance. In a comparison between a best-performing 2P competitive platform versus a similar best-performing 4P AMD-based platform, customers can recognize up to double the performance and more than 10% lower total processor price.7
- Significant new power management features including a C1E power state to conserve energy when idle, the Advanced Platform Management Link allowing APML-enabled platforms to be remotely monitored for power and cooling, and AMD CoolSpeed technology, which automatically reduces p-states if a specified temperature limit is exceeded.
- A wide range of power and performance options with no compromise on the available feature sets.
- A legacy of consistency and stability. The new AMD Opteron platform is chipset- and socket- compatible between 2P and 4P and will be compatible with the planned processors based on the next-generation AMD server processor core, code-named "Bulldozer".

Dragon hide is used to make clothing. Where Muggles would wear leather, wizards would wear dragon hide. The skin is very tough, impervious to some spells, and provides the same protection as leather, while at the same time having the same texture and appearance as snakeskin. Dragon hide is used to make gloves, boots, jackets and shields. In high demand at the moment is the skin of the Swedish Short Snout. Dragon hide being very tough is used to touch potion ingredients harmful to the skin. In potions class, the students will use dragon hide gloves if the ingredient could irritate their skin.
Known owners
- Fred and George Weasley wore dragon skin jackets when they greeted Harry after his fifth school year. This was a clear indicator of their recent affluence.
- Professor Horace Slughorn has a dragon-skin briefcase, with gold clasps.[1]
- When Rubeus Hagrid and Olympe Maxime went to be emissaries to the giants, on Albus Dumbledore's behalf, they brought a roll of dragon skin as a gift for the Gurg.[2]
- When Harry went to the Burrow before his fourth year he met Bill Weasley, who was wearing dragon skin boots.

Learning to read and getting your kids to practice doesn't have to rely only on books. Activities where they need to do some reading is a great way to teach kids how reading is more than simply for books, we use the skill all day every day...even when playing games.
You could do this with anything but we decided to do a Halloween themed photo safari since most every conversation my 5 year old starts includes Halloween as the subject.
Grab a note book or a clip board , markers and a camera.
Make a list of items for your child to find.
Review the pictures together.
This isn't a ground breaking activity but it's really fun to see what your child chooses, how excited they get as they skip off with your camera and what the pictures look like .

|"Planet of the Jellyfish"
|List of characters
Jelliens are the evil versions of jellyfish that are created by the Evil Alien Jellyfish Overlord after it consumes and traps regular jellyfish. They only appear in the episode "Planet of the Jellyfish."
Jelliens look like regular jellyfish, except they have big, cute, pitch black, shiny round eyes and mouths with sharp teeth in which they use to consume people and make Jellien Clones. When creating Jellien Clones, they generates tendril-like tube that used to secrete green biomass that quickly molts into the said clones.
Being a mere clone of jellyfish, they cannot sting.
Abilities, talents, and relationships with Overlord and Jellien Clones
As creation and servant for Overlord, it appeared that Jellien taking role as both scout and drone like drone ants/termites does with their queens. This because while working on capturing non-Jellien lifeforms and creating the Jellien version of the said lifeform while taking away the original for the Overlord, they also scout over non-Jellien lifeform territories and stumbles upon Bikini Bottom that provided them more prey. While they appeared to be weak (noticeably as they cannot sting), they counteract this via manipulation and trickery, as shown where it uses its appearance for fooling SpongeBob. However, if necessary, they also willing to fight to the death with their enemies, though how they fight the threat is unknown (if any aside consuming them) as they immediately dispatched by SpongeBob and Sandy.
Primary Jellien has an alarming ability to copy the captured victim's DNA and possibly their memories (while sedating them during the consuming process) that are both used to create the Jellien Clones (which are considered Secondary Jelliens). As a result, while its appearance mirrors the original, except for the eyes, which remain the same with other Jelliens, Jellien clones would easily blend with non-Jellien lifeforms while either hunting for more potential victims or guarding the Hive/Overlord's lair.
During the beginning of the episode after SpongeBob passes by a creepy cave, the Evil Alien Jellyfish Overlord eats a jellyfish and then makes a bunch more Jelliens. One of the Jelliens eats Patrick and makes a clone of him, thus Jellien Patrick is born. All the rest of the Jelliens are then captured by Jellien Patrick (SpongeBob caught one for himself still thinking it was a regular jellyfish, and thought it was a new breed, because they did not sting) and they both give out the Jelliens to the citizens of Bikini Bottom. Afterwards, the Jelliens manage to take over most of the citizens except SpongeBob and Sandy who both learn that the Jelliens' weakness is mayonnaise. They then fight through the Jellien army using mayonnaise and eventually take down the Overlord. The Jelliens are all destroyed, never to be seen again.Jelliens tend to like cold environments, and will make their nests in the cold. Jelliens also seem to be weak to hot environments, shown after the Evil Alien Jellyfish Overlord dies. However, they will survive in normal temperatures, as they survive in Jellyfish Fields.
- The name "Jellien" may have come from the words "jellyfish" and "alien."
- It is confirmed that even though they are an exact copy of a jellyfish, they cannot sting.
- The Jelliens are a parody of the plants from Invasion of the Body Snatchers.
- They have a weakness to mayonnaise.
- They have less spots than any other jellyfish in all forms.
- It's unknown whether Jellien's appearance only taking form of jellyfish or can also taking other lifeform instead, though this possible as any lifeform's DNA that consumed by Overlord can be used to create Jelliens.
- It is just like a parasite.

Arab nations continually discuss the "right of return" for Arab people who fled Palestine when Israel was created, but few ever mention the 700,000 Jews who fled Arab nations after Israel became a nation and their governments engaged in anti-Jewish activities. A new magazine in Iraq's Kurdistan's region entitled: "Israel-Kurd" urges that Jews who fled Iraq should return to Kurdistan. They believe the 150,000 Kurdistan Jews living in Israel belong in their native land. Dawood Baghestani, who developed the magazine, argues "if the Jews had not been subject to an exodus, the Palestinians wouldn't have been either."
Many Muslims in Iraq are furious at the thrust of the magazine since Israel is not recognized by the Iraq government. Many Kurdish leaders like Baghestani have visited Israel and believe in the need for improved relations between Israel and Arab nations.
Mr. Baghestani has excellent motives, but it might be slightly exaggerating the reason for departure of Arabs from the new state of Israel. There is no question Israel armed forces forced some Arabs to leave just as Arab leaders urged people to leave in fear they would be killed by the Israelis. There is also no doubt hundreds of thousands of Jews left Arab nations and lost their money and property.

Remarks By Commerce Secretary Donald Evans
February 28, 2002
I am very pleased to be here. This Summit comes at a time when recent events have brought the issue of retirement savings to the attention of everyone.
The issue before us goes to the very heart of our economic system. Americans go to work every day with the expectation that they will have the benefit of the dollars they earn and set aside for retirement.
Our whole system is based on trust-especially when it comes to retirement savings.
Your next speaker is someone I've talked to at some length about this. We share the conviction that trust is the foundation of our economic system...a system that is still the envy of the world.
And in our system, it is absolutely vital that Americans have trust and confidence in their retirement savings. Our social contract depends on it. You cannot earn confidence with accounting tricks or gimmicks. We need to earn that confidence with honest discussion and sound policies.
There is no better person to address this National Summit on Retirement Savings than the man whose wise judgment and leadership at the Federal Reserve have earned him the trust of men and women all over the world.
When you think about confidence, honest discussion and sound policies...When you think about trust...this man embodies all those qualities.
Ladies and gentlemen, the Chairman of the Federal Reserve Board, Dr. Alan Greenspan.

This week's ice storm-with its extensive damage and widespread power outages-had many Mainers flashing back to 1998.
"All of those memories came rushing back because you're seeing thick coats of ice on the trees and they're all sagging and that sort of thing. And I just remember that that caused so much damage systemwide and that really gave me a sinking feeling that we were in for a long few days," said Susan Faloon of Bangor Hydro.
But how does the 2013 ice storm stack up to 98? We asked our resident expert Chris Ewing.
"I think it pales somewhat in comparison to the 98 ice storm, though there are some similarities. The 98 ice storm lasted a few more days than this one did in terms of the accumulating ice ball," said Ewing.
Inland areas were far harder hit with ice in 98. However…
"Along the coastline it was more freezing rain out of this current storm, so along the coast it was a little closer in similarity," said Ewing.
In coastal towns there was significant damage to trees this time around-leading to the outages that have persisted all week in some areas, but 98 was a whole other level.
"Even after the ice melted it looked like someone had taken a large saw and just cut off the top portion of the trees-the tops of the trees were just snapped right off. It was just amazing to see the amount of damage that was done in 98," said Ewing.
Snapped trees meant downed lines and toppled poles throughout the state-and as a result some 700 thousand Mainers lost power-some for weeks.
"We had 13 miles of poles snapped lying on the ground and that was our single line feeding Washington County," said Faloon.
Bangor Hydro attributes fewer outages this time around not just to the relative size of the storm, but to upgrades made to the power grid.
"What we have done since then is we have built a second line so if we lose our primary line we have another transmission line that we can switch over to. Plus we made improvements to that original line, so we're definitely in much better shape for a situation like this," said Faloon.
But for those still without power some six days after the storm hit, that may be little consolation.
"Both storms have high impact and if you're without power it doesn't matter if it was 98 or now," said Ewing.

Hotel 3 Stuben
Top Business Hotel
Kirchstraße 7, Meersburg, Baden-Wurttemberg
0.0 mi from
It is a perfect location on Lake Constance. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The food is excellent. It is a good value amd very comfortable.
Friendly, helpful, English speaking front of house. Very clean and comfortable room with a lovely lake view. Parking is an issue. We were lucky enough to arrive early and able to use one of the very limited courtyard spaces. You have to hand your keys over so that the staff can move cars. Other than that it is the public car park with a walk.
Excellent location, with brilliant views of the lake, marvelous food and gourmet breakfasts The absence of a lift, and any lounge area was a slight inconvenience
Excellent location on lake, close to castle and restaurants. Hotel room on small size, shower head not fixed properly to wall of shower and had to be hand held.
The central Location, the view over the Lake and the sound of the lapping Water against the pier. The Bed !!!! creaking and uncomfortable at every turn of the Body. Definately not a Comfort Room for sleeping.
Spacious room, well equipped bathroom and stocked barfridge, great selection at breakfast, friendly reception.
Splendid view on the lake. Large rooms, very clean. Great breakfast, again with the view.
the location
excellent hotel staff
nice modern room with pleasant view only breakfast available not usual for a hotel charging this price for rooms
Very comfortable. Very pleasant staff Why stay any place else in Meersburg? Would have been nice to have a fan in the room since not a/c
Situated at the top of meersburg with a beautiful view of lake Constance.lovely hotel, spacious room with comfy bed.overall very nice. A good 15 min walk to centre of meersburg.
The breakfast! The dining room has lots of ambience and the menu choices were excellent. The location has an excellent view, and the hotel is very clean and modern. No room service, and the road outside the hotel was under construction so it was difficult to find. We also booked massages through the online booking request section but were told on the day that they were fully booked and that they had not seen our request.
excellent decor within the hotel and the high standard of the hotel was much appreciated. lack of Tea/Coffee facialities within the bedroom and only being able to get this service up till 17.00hrs is not good for a 4 star hotel. Not having a bar (only a honesty box) again does not reflect in this hotel having a 4 star rating.
Good initial impression of decor - everything top quality. They have tried to think of everything, present it well & are welcoming. Afternoon tea/coffee nice touch. Bed not very comfortable. Extra 3.5 euros per day added to the bill, on exit, for using the hotel car park. Breakfast choice lavish, but only some items good quality. Who needs 10 cheeses at breakfast?
The breakfast is amazing. The view was nice. The owners very friendly and professional. The room was very small, but well decorated.
A particularly stylish welcoming small hotel. Breakfast and tea were superb. Down duvets and feather pillows would have been nice.
Its a beautiful location with a great view over the lake Bodensee. The hotel is very well maintained and easy to find. Its a historic Villa and beautiful to look at in all aspects. They have a miniature Spa area which one can only book separately for 2 hours for 25,- Euro per person (too expensive - the thermal bath with huge sauna and wellness area cost 18,- per person and day!). I found the breakfast too rudimentary. The first day there was a good variety, but from the second day on there were no more veggies available. They have a very loud clock that chimes throughout the night (first we thought its the churchbell from the adjacent church, but no the noise came from the hotel itself). The view to the lake is from most of the rooms disturbed due to the Church that is in front of the hotel.
The room had a wonderful view of the lake. A very relaxing and comfortable visit.
Idyllic setting overlooking the Bodensee. Extremely comfortable room with private balcony and sun-terrace. Excellent breakfast included in our price. Restaurant was closed the only night we were there (a Tuesday). This was particularly disappointing as the hotel is noted for its cuisine.
I enjoyed my stay at this hotel very much. Meersberg is a delightful place along the shores of Lake Constance and my experience was intensified by the hotel staff who recommended a number of activities to consider. I also took advantage of having a massage in my room which was absolutely fantastic. That followed by a visit to the thermal baths located across the road from the hotel made for a very relaxing experience. The welcoming drink was an added bonus which I will continue to look for so I can stock it at home.
Breakfast was absolutely amazing, and times for breakfast can be reserved until 2pm if you like to sleep late. Location is good, room is pretty nice and certainly large enough. No AC in the July heat made it difficult to be comfortable and sleep in the room. At almost 200 euro a night, one would expect AC. We cancelled one of the three nights after two fitful sleeps, and were charged 90% of the rate as a "cancellation fee." This sullied our otherwise satisfactory experience quite a bit.
The owner and staff were extremely friendly and helpful and tried to ensure you had everything you needed - nothing was too much trouble and everything done with a smile and friendly word. The hotel is in an excellent location with a great view over the lake and very close to the lido and town centre (about 5 mins walk). It would have been good to have had tea/coffee making facilities and I can imagine people might expect a bit more for the price, but overall, given the service, size/cleanliness/comfort of the room/bathroom, enormous buffet breakfast (we never needed lunch!) and its location it's reasonable!
I am very like the service of hotel. Everything was very good. Personal of the hotel Eden are very friendly and professional. The room is very comfortable and nice. Location of the hotel is excellent – close to lake, shop and center town.
Wunderful staff.
Very close to the town center and attractions in Meersburg, breakfast was very good, staff was very friendly Everything was great, however, this hotel does not accept VAT forms.
Excellent host, great rooms, good convenient location
Very helpful staff and close proximity to area attractions and waterfront
Quiet and peaceful. Extremely welcoming owners. Conveniently located a short, pleasant walk from the town. Very nice rooms.
The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful, giving advice for day trips etc. The breakfast buffet was plenty and the food quality was excellent. The room was very comfortable and clean with private patio. The locations was ideal with Meersburg centre only a short walk away. I would recommend it to everyone.
This was a beautiful place. I forgot to bring a map of how to get to the place- and when i called the manager- he just came to pick us up. The staff were super friendly and the location was beautiful!
Walking along promenade, ferry ride, and visiting nice shops up the hill. Sampled and purchased wine at the winery.
Enjoyed visiting Meersburg again. The hotel is located in a prime location. Breakfast was the best served during hour holiday. The heating was not over-powering.
Ideal location on the edge of the lake with view of the lake and mountains. Wonderful breakfast with lots of fresh fruit and home made muesli. Friendly staff. Lots of nice places to eat.
Proximity to lake Poor value for room size and contents.
Location and ease of access. WiFi not uniform throughout Hotel. Very spotty reception.
furniture and style of hotel and room; nice garden views (but no balcony and small window) mediocre, cold reception; difficult access; bad parking lot; lack of food facilities (no restaurant or room service in the hotel, next door restaurant closed; had to drive 8 km to next crowded town for a simple pizza); no information or tasting/sale of local products although hotel in the middle of a vineyard; internet inordinately expensive...
It had a good and varied breakfast. I found it met my expectations.
Staff was wonderful. The cafe was charming. Breakfast was traditional Euro fare. It was easy walking distance to the ferry ticket office, the lakeside, shopping, resturants, castle, etc The only problem was the room overlooked the noisy alley. Below were a couple of cafes that were loud at night. The early morning noise (delivery, set up and trash collection) was also difficult. Of course there is no AC thus the windows needed to be open.
The hotel is beautifully decorated and situated in an exceptional location. The breakfast was super and the service irreproachable. Excellent value for money.
Beautiful hotel in lovely location.Lovely large appointed room and helpful friendly staff.Lovelly breakfast
A super Hotel in every way
Everything was wonderful. nope..everything was perfect!

Rear Track Bar (Frame Side)
So my lift install is almost finished...one more bolt to put in.
Is there a trick to getting the rear track bar holes to align on the frame side?
Jeep is on the ground with the wheels on...was hoping it would realign itself, but it didn't.
You're going to either have to have someone push on the body or you're going to have to slide the axle over. The track bar is what aligns the axle with the body so if it's disconnected it's not going to automatically realign.
bounce it up and down. Jack it up a bit to line things up
With all 4 wheels on the ground, simply have someone turn the steering wheel back and forth till the hole lines up.
The body moves with the front wheels being turned.
Well, tried all those things and its partially through, but its angled a little to high to come through the other side...hmmmm.
Use a ratcheting strap (aka cargo strap) to pull it where it need to be. It shouldn't be that much of a struggle with that method.
You can get cargo straps at Wally World, or any McParts store.
Got a ratcheting strap in the garage. So, just hook one side to the axle and the other to where? The frame?
That's how I'd do it. Shouldn't take too much to make it happen, sounds like you're pretty close now.
Trying to get mine aligned today.....spent 3hrs trying to remove seized bolt...Grrrr. Anyway, had my 11yr old push with his back to the wall and put his two feet on the rear body and "rocked" the jeep until I was able to pop the bolt in.....
Ratcheting strap works like a charm. Aligns the bar pretty well.
So here's where I'm at. In the pic below you can see in the mirror that the bolt is almost all the way through but the hole toward this engine is misaligned.
If I align the hole toward the engine the hole toward the gas tank is off, and vice versa. Is the bushing inside the bar suppose to flex to align the holes correctly? Can't see how that would be possible to accomplish.
The axle side of the bar is connected to the OME relocation bracket if that makes any difference.
Just keep Wiggling the Body / Suspension in all Directions and you'll "get it". Lay Under the Jeep or be in a Position that you can Clearly See that Hole and have someone Start Moving the Jeep in all Directions and you'll See what way you gotta go to get the Hole to Line Up.
From the Looks of that, I'd say you gotta Jack Using the Frame on the Pass Side so that the Suspension Droops only on that Side.
If I ever have to remove/reinstall the rear trac bar, I always unbolt one of the rear upper control arms. That way you're not fighting the triangulation of the control arms. Usually makes things easier for me. That and a combination of jacking up/down one side of the axle and I've never had to use a ratchet strap.
Seems like you'd still fight the triangulation of the the arms at some point though. Even if its to reattach the upper arm, but I'll give it a shot tomorrow.
Honestly, I've had better luck installing the frame side first; doing that allows you to jack the axle up and down to get the axle side of the trac bar installed. I've never had to use a ratchet strap doing that and a combination of the arm removal.
If it's actually an angle problem, as in the angle of the end of the trac bar won't let it go into the bracket I can't help you there. I have an adjustable trac bar so being at an angle isn't an issue.
Is the axle end of the trackbar tightened in the OME bracket, or is the bolt/nut still loose?
Making sure the axle end is attached, but still loose will give you some more movement.
Also, sometimes a combination of methods is required. I have had to use a ratchet strap to get it almost there, and then jacked up the driver's side to push it over just a little more.
99% of the time, I actually find it easiest to reconnect the trackbars with the tires off and the Jeep still on jack stands. You have a wider range of movement that way with less obstacles in the way. Once you get the bolts in and nut started, wait to tighten them until the Jeep is on its own weight.
Another option entirely is this....take a large screwdriver and push it between the top of the trackbar and the frame/mount. Work it up or down to align the holes.
If you can get it aligned just a hair more, a couple good whacks with a hammer will knock it through.
The OP said up top that he is doing this with the wheels on the ground. In fairness, most instructions suggest reconnecting trackbars and sway bars with the tires on the ground.
Personal experience says it is way easier to do on jackstands.
Got the bolt in finally, a few days ago.
Took the bar off and bolted the frame side up first, then used a ratchet strap to line the axle side up. Was much easier this way for some reason. Did it with the wheels on the ground :)
Thx for the help and suggestions.
