this problem occur when i use airodump-ng to scan for AP
this problem can be from my wifi ,laptop,driver,BT4...???
any help!!!!
when i am using aircrack-ng tools (airodump-ng) to scan for AP
some times my laptop freeze and the caps-lock light begin to flash
i have to reset and reboot again to BT4 livecd
how can i fix this
i am using a edimax-ew7318 wifi
their is no solution for my problem?????
this problem occur when i use airodump-ng to scan for AP
this problem can be from my wifi ,laptop,driver,BT4...???
any help!!!!
is it a crappy laptop? Have you tested the memory? Is it overheating? Is it running out of space after airodumping?
I felt like bending the bars back, and ripping out the window frames and eating them. yes, eating them! Leaping, leaping, leaping! Colonics for everyone! All right! You dumb*sses. I'm a mental patient. I'm *supposed* to act out!
First of all this is not the correct section to post as this is not a BUG or FIX.there may be numerous reasons like problem in processor or memory.run any other CPU & Memmory intensive tasks to verify that.one of my friend was having same problem while using aircrack-ng and reason was problematic CPU.
i have 4 GB or ram and 2.2 core2duo Toshiba A305
i load it with heavy games on my vista and nothing is happen (no problem of freezing)
when i enter with my BT4 live dvd all is good but the freezing occur when i use aircrack tools (not directly the laptop freeze when i use aircrack)!!!
BUT this problem is not present on my desktop (lowest performance compared to my laptop)
this problem can be from my wifi usb ??
and how can i test the cpu as you have ask me to do?
some one can help solving my problem
and guide me to know if my wifi usb is in damage or no
because i use my usb on my desktop (lower performance compared to my laptop ) and nothing is happening but when i use my laptop i am get to be crazy because (most of time) when i use aircrack or dhclient wlan0 to connect to a AP the laptop freeze and i have to reboot him with reset
(maybe can some one help me by telling me how can i disable all my usb port except the wifi usb to try it ,maybe their is a problem with power )
Oh do you have multiple AP's your connecting to or trying to use aircrack against?
Tiocfaidh ár lá
only i am trying to access to my AP without using aircrack tools at the same time (and some times freeze when i use airodump-ng , if i use airodump-ng without specifying a channel with -c the interface goes down and i have to unplug it then plug it again)
i try to put : "lsusb" and i find many usb interface that i am not using them
how can i disable them and try if it work fine ?

Indigenous life expectancy estimates could only be compiled for New South Wales, Queensland, Western Australia and the Northern Territory. Of these, New South Wales had the highest Indigenous life expectancy (69.9 for Indigenous men, and 75.0 for Indigenous women). The Northern Territory had the lowest (61.5 for Indigenous men and 69.2 for Indigenous women). Due to the small numbers of Indigenous deaths in the other states and the ACT, it was not possible to construct life tables for these areas.

Semmering, Austria • Veronika Velez Zuzulova of Slovakia upset the favorites to win a World Cup night slalom Saturday for her first career victory.
She trailed overall World Cup leader Tina Maze by 0.55 seconds after the opening leg but overtook the Slovenian with a near-flawless final run. Velez Zuzulova finished in a combined time of 1 minute, 37.28 seconds. Kathrin Zettel of Austria was 0.10 back. Maze was third, 0.20 behind.
The rest of the field finished more than a second behind Velez Zuzulova, who celebrated her victory by lying face-down in the snow in the finish area for about 30 seconds.
"A while ago I was almost thinking that it's impossible to win one day," said the 28-year-old Velez Zuzulova, who has been racing on the World Cup circuit since 2000.
The Slovakian, who married her French coach Romain Velez in the offseason, said attacking was her only tactic for the final run.
"After the first run I was really happy," Velez Zuzulova said. "But the second run was really difficult, as I knew Kathrin had a good time. I had to attack; it was the only way I could win." Zettel said she was "super happy" to finish second.
"To get this result in front of your home crowd is such a great feeling," she said.Teenager Mikeala Shiffrin of Vail, Colo., who led the slalom standings going into the race, was in fourth place after the first run but straddled a gate and didn't finish her second run.
Defending overall champion Lindsey Vonn missed the race while recovering from an intestinal illness, and world slalom champion Marlies Schild of Austria is out for three months after knee surgery.
Maze earned her 11th podium finish of the season, took the lead in the slalom standings and extended her overall lead.
Men's downhill
In Bormio, Italy, Hannes Reichelt of Austria and Dominik Paris of Italy shared a downhill victory in one of the closest races in skiing history, with the top four finishers separated by a mere two-hundredths of a second. Paris took the early lead by clocking 1 minute, 58.62 seconds for his first career win and Reichelt matched him to give Austria its first speed win of the season.
Overall World Cup leader Aksel Lund Svindal of Norway finished third, 0.01 seconds behind the smallest possible margin. Klaus Kroell of Austria was fourth, missing out on a podium finish despite being just 0.02 behind the winners.
The top American finisher was Travis Ganong in seventh for his best career result.
Kikkan Randall of the United States claimed her second cross-country World Cup victory of the season when she won the prologue event of the Tour de Ski in Oberhof, Germany. Randall clinched the 3.1-kilometer sprint by leaving Charlotte Kalla of Sweden 4.4 seconds behind. World Cup leader Justyna Kowalczyk of Poland was third.

New findings on Alzheimer's disease offer clues on causes, diagnosis, and treatments
Research on Alzheimer's disease is entering a new, highly productive phase and the pace of promising developments is accelerating, according to scientists at the National Institute on Aging (NIA). In an editorial examining important new findings and analyses by NIA-supported researchers and others, part of a March 12 special issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) dedicated to Alzheimer's disease, the scientists say that Alzheimer's disease research is coming together in such a way that "we can look forward to ever more effective weapons to combat this dreaded disease."
The wide-ranging editorial by Marcelle Morrison-Bogorad, Ph.D., Associate Director for the Neuroscience and Neuropsychology of Aging Program at NIA, and Institute colleagues, Creighton Phelps, Ph.D., and Neil Buckholtz, Ph.D., discusses causes and risk factors, diagnosis and prognosis, the struggle of patients and families, and ethical issues in genetic testing. Morrison-Bogorad also reviewed the state of Alzheimer's disease research in remarks at a March 11 media briefing, where she moderated a panel of scientists presenting selected findings from among eight papers in the JAMA special issue.
The special issue includes significant reports from researchers supported by the NIA and the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), both parts of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and others. The studies further investigate the role of various forms of the apolipoprotein (ApoE) gene, examine a large, extended family with a uniform genetic basis for the disease whose study might help expand understanding of genetic and environmental factors involved in determining the age of onset, and provide an overview of genetics research; assess the impact of vascular disease and stroke on the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease; demonstrate the reluctance or inability of families, especially spouses, to recognize early signs of dementia; and offer a formula for clinicians to predict the likelihood of an individual Alzheimer's patient entering a nursing home within a particular span of time.
Summaries of the research follow:
The role of ApoE-E4 and investigation of a number of influential genetic and environmental factors. The ApoE-E4 allele, while an important genetic risk factor, may account for a fairly small fraction of the disease in the general population. Denis A. Evans, M.D., Rush Alzheimer's Disease Center and Rush Institute on Aging, Rush-Presbyterian-St.Luke's Medical Center in Chicago, and colleagues from other institutions, found an approximately two-fold increased risk of developing Alzheimer's disease associated with ApoE-E4 in an East-Boston, Mass., population. In this population, an estimated 13.7 percent of all Alzheimer's disease was attributable to this allele. This finding suggests that studies to identify other environmental and genetic risk factors should continue.
Another study by F. Lopera, M.D., of Antioquia University, Medellin, Colombia, and researchers at various U.S. institutions, whose work on this project has been supported by NIA, characterized the pathological and symptomatic variations in a large, early-onset family in Antioquia, Colombia. All affected members of the family share the same mutation in the presenilin 1 gene and show similar disease symptoms and progression. Age of onset, however, varied widely, ranging from 34 to 62 years. This, too, suggests that other genetic and environmental factors may be at work. The researchers and NIA scientists believe that further study of this particular family will yield important information about influences on the age of onset.
The genetics of Alzheimer's disease and genetic testing. The notion that Alzheimer's disease can be caused by a number of different genetic factors is echoed in a review article on the genetics of Alzheimer's disease by Corinne Lendon, Ph.D., Frank Ashall, D. Phil., Alison Goate, D.Phil., at Washington University. A great deal of progress has been made leading to the identification of three genes whose mutations can cause familial forms of early-onset disease, they note. But it is likely that additional genetic and environmental factors need to be identified, especially in late-onset disease. Much needs to be learned, for example, about how the disease develops, especially the role of beta-amyloid in neurofibrillary tangles, chronic inflammation, and neuronal cell loss.
Stephen Post, Ph.D., of Case Western Reserve University, reports on the findings of the National Study Group of leading genetics researchers, ethicists, and public policy experts, supported by the NHGRI. The panel was set up to review emerging information on genetic testing, taking into consideration the views of people in focus groups convened by the Alzheimer's Association. It concludes that ApoE testing is not recommended for people without dementia. For those few people in whom early onset disease occurs, an estimated 1 - 2 percent of all cases, genetic predictive testing may be possible, but must be applied with extensive counseling and with adequate safeguards for confidentiality. The panel also expressed concern about the public's incorrect impression that a predictive genetic test exists for the vast majority of people whose disease is late-onset. The potential for discrimination in life and health insurance, especially long-term care insurance, and other possible adverse consequences of testing are also pointed out.
Strokes and dementia. In looking at the clinical course of the disease, two new findings suggest that the relationship between stroke and Alzheimer's disease may be extremely important. Arjen Slooter, M.D., and researchers at Erasmus University Medical School in Rotterdam, The Netherlands, Richard Mayeux, M.D., Columbia University, New York, and colleagues looked at ApoE in dementia patients with stroke. They found ApoE-E4 to be a genetic risk factor for dementia with stroke, with up to a seven-fold increase in risk. The researchers say this could mean that dementia associated with stroke and with Alzheimer's disease may share a genetic background, or it may be that people with Alzheimer's disease are just part of the population of demented patients with stroke. Either way, the scientists say, the association is strong and should be investigated further.
David Snowdon, Ph.D., and colleagues at the University of Kentucky examined the cognitive function and prevalence of dementia among a group of nuns and found that strokes may produce and exacerbate the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. Upon their death, the nuns' brains were examined and characterized for Alzheimer's disease and other conditions. Among the nuns with abundant Alzheimer's disease lesions, those who had strokes in strategic regions of the brain had significantly poorer cognitive function and more dementia than those without strokes. While the impact of the strokes appears to depend on the location in the brain, the findings highlight the importance of cerebrovascular disease in influencing the severity of clinical symptoms in Alzheimer's disease. Perhaps, NIA scientists suggest in their editorial, "prevention or treatment of vascular disease could delay or diminish the development of symptoms in many Alzheimer's disease patients."
Diagnosis and prognosis. There has been enormous progress in improving clinical diagnosis of dementia and Alzheimer's disease. But research from the Honolulu-Asia Aging Study by G. Webster Ross, M.D., of the Veterans Administration and colleagues from NIA and other institutions shows that a majority of families may fail to recognize or address symptoms. In the study group of 191 Japanese-American men with dementia, for example, 52 percent of families said they did not see the symptoms at all in patients who were in the early stages of the disease. For patients whose families did recognize a memory problem, 53 percent did not receive a medical work-up for memory impairment. As treatments become available, especially for the early stages of Alzheimer's disease, early detection and assessment of dementia will become more important, the researchers say. Cognitive screening and public education programs may need to be developed to help increase awareness.
Yaakov Stern, Ph.D.,Columbia University, and colleagues reported on an algorithm that could provide guidance for patients, families, and clinicians on the length of time before an Alzheimer's disease patient may require nursing home care, or die. The complex formula, the first of its kind, uses cognitive test scores and other variables to predict time to nursing home and death, and was found to be on-target. The researchers noted, too, that the formula, with further testing, might be used to help researchers whose clinical trial participants are Alzheimer's disease patients.
The NIA conducts research into the biomedical, clinical, social, and behavioral aspects of aging and the needs of older people. The Institute sponsors the Alzheimer's Disease Education and Referral Center (ADEAR), where the public and health professionals can obtain a variety of information on dementia. ADEAR can be contacted at 1-800-438-4380 or by e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com. Its website is located at www.nia.nih.gov/alzheimers.

Be Careful of Silica packet.
I like the product just fine, but I want to warn people to be careful of the very small silica packet. I was making a smoothie one day and noticed something small and white go into the blender with the seeds. It was a very small silica packet. I barely noticed it, it was very small, I could have blended it in my smoothie and not have known it. Please be careful and watch out for the packet if you purchase this.

this is recommended for energy & endurance; i haven't noticed a huge difference yet but i've only been taking it for a week. however, i discovered something so neat i want to share it--chia is a great vehicle for supplements that don't dissolve well!!! i put 1-2 teaspoons in 1/4-1/3 cup of water, juice or coconut milk, let it sit 15 minutes, and then mix in supplements such as psyllium, dolomite, azomite, or creatine; they get "suspended" in the mucilage and don't sink to the bottom. i used to have to stir, gulp, add more liquid, stir again and then not only would i still get that grit in my mouth (or in the glass), i'd feel like my gut was gonna bust from all the water! it's a little slimy, like egg whites, but i'm getting used to it. it's also great in baking; if you soak the seeds first, the consistency helps bind the ingredients, adds moisture and fluffiness, and looks like poppy seeds! i also mixed some chia with toasted sesame seeds and sea salt for a nice seasoning for rice, salad etc--or just as a little snack!

Australia's quarantine regulations make the importation of these seeds difficult. AQIS always stops them for inspection & puts on a $77-80 fee to examine them.I now have to alert DHL when my order is about to arrive & fax them a copy of a certificate I obtained from the head office in Canberra which states that they are an allowed seed. It is a bit of a deterrant but I am persisting.

I really like the chia seeds. I sometimes eat them straight (about 1 tablespoon) to give me that extra boost of energy mid-day or if I don't have time to eat, this is what I'll eat to hold off the hunger. Or, I'll add about 2 tablespoons to a green smoothie to make sure I get in my omegas for the day.

Now, this is something new for me and I'm really enjoying putting them in smoothies, salad dressings, muffins, etc. I've made "raw" pudding with them, which turned out pretty well - just mix the seeds with almond (or whatever) milk and the chia seeds will make it thicken naturally - no heat! Lots of recipes on line for chia seed pudding.

Chronic granulomatous diseaseCGD; Fatal granulomatosis of childhood; Chronic granulomatous disease of childhood; Progressive septic granulomatosis
Chronic granulomatous disease is an inherited disorder in which immune system cells called phagocytes do not function properly. This leads to ongoing and severe infection.
Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is a genetic disorder in which certain immune system cells are unable to kill some types of bacteria and fungi. The disorder leads to long term (chronic) and repeated (recurrent) infections. The condition is often discovered in very early childhood. Milder forms may be diagnosed during the teen years or even in adulthood.
Impetigo, skin abscesses and furuncles, and perianal and rectal abscesses are common in people with this disorder. Pneumonia that keeps coming back, and is caused by bacteria not typical of most pneumonias, is a significant problem. Chronic swelling of the lymph nodes in the neck, with the formation of abscesses, is common.
Risk factors include a family history of recurrent or chronic infections.
About half of CGD cases are passed down through families as a recessive, sex-linked trait. This means that boys are more likely to get the disorder than girls. Boys have an X and a Y chromosome. Girls have two X chromosomes. The defective gene is carried on the X chromosome. So, if a girl has one X chromosome with the defective gene, the other X chromosome may have a working gene to make up for it. A girl has to inherit the defective gene from both parents in order to have the disease.
- Bone infections
- Frequent and difficult-to-clear skin infections
- Abscesses
- Chronic infection inside the nose
- Furuncles
- Impetiginized eczema (eczema complicated by an infection)
- Impetigo
- Perianal abscesses (abscesses around the anus)
- Joint infections
- Persistent diarrhea
- Pneumonia
- Occurs frequently
- Difficult to cure
- Swollen lymph nodes in the neck; those develop early in life, and stay swollen or occur frequently. The lymph nodes may form abscesses that require surgical drainage.
Exams and Tests
Your doctor or nurse will examine you. This may show:
- Liver swelling(hepatomegaly)
- Spleen swelling (splenomegaly)
- Swollen lymph nodes
There may be signs of a bone infection (osteomyelitis ), sometimes affecting multiple bones.
Tests that may be done include:
- Bone scan
- Chest x-ray
- Complete blood count (CBC)
- Flow cytometry tests to help confirm the disease
- Nitroblue tetrazolium test (NBT) to help confirm the disease and detect that the mother is a carrier
- Tissue biopsy
Antibiotics are used to treat the disease and may also be used to prevent infections.Interferon-gamma may also help reduce the number of severe infections. Surgery may be needed to treat some abscesses.
The only cure for chronic granulomatous disease is a bone marrow or stem celltransplant.
Outlook (Prognosis)
Long-term antibiotic treatments may help to reduce infections, but early death is typically a result of repeated lung infections.
Possible Complications
- Bone damage
- Chronic pneumonia
- Lung damage
- Skin damage
When to Contact a Medical Professional
If you or your child have this condition and you suspect pneumonia or other infection, call your health care provider immediately.
Notify your health care provider if a lung, skin, or other infection does not respond to treatment.
Genetic counseling is recommended if you are planning to have children and have a family history of this disease. Advances in genetic screening and increasing use of chorionic villus sampling have made early recognition of CGD possible. However, the practice is not yet widespread or fully accepted. There are tests available for women to identify if you carry the disease.

Craftivism and Crocheting for Charity: 6 Free Patterns to Crochet for Charity
Daily I am reminded of the things in my life that I have to be thankful for. Not least is my ability to crochet and the opportunity to create beautiful and functional crocheted garments and accessories. With this gratitude comes a desire to help those around me.
Crocheting for charity is part of the crochet culture. All six of the patterns included in this free eBook were designed in conjunction with a series of Craftivism columns in Interweave Crochet magazine. I hope you will find the perfect pattern for your favorite charity.
The Comfort Slippers by Sarah Read are a quick and easy way to share a little comfort with others. Worked in single crochet in the round, these simple slippers are embellished with clever crochet flowers for a touch of beauty.
The Tahoe Hat by Marcy Smith is worked in a bulky wool, making it a great crochet hat for charity. The increases on the crown are worked in the front loop only and back loop only of the same stitch, and the body is worked in double crochet stitches worked alternately in the front loop and back loop to create great texture.
The Helping Hand Walker Bag by Sarah Read is sturdy enough to carry the essentials when your hands aren't free. This walker bag pattern is the perfect stash-busting pattern for a beginning crocheter or community-support groups.
The whimsical Cat Nap Mat by Laura Rintala is a great project for humane society crochet charities. The textured stitch pattern makes this mat fun to crochet and adds visual interest without making the fabric too lacy. Make one for your own kitty and a few to give away.
The Friendship Scarf, designed by Marcy Smith, Sarah Read, and Sharon Zientara, is a great charity crochet pattern for your crochet group. Or take this opportunity to learn a variety of stitches. Each long "swatch" is worked in a different stitch pattern. The strips are then braided to create this unique scarf.
Angel Wings by Allison Lavelle was designed as a donation for Afghans for Angels, a charity that gathers blankets for infants that have died. This pattern is easily modified and perfect for individual squares or blankets for a variety of charities.

Two years ago, an Eagle Rock family lost its best friend.
But thanks to a tiny microchip the size of a grain of rice, they've all been reunited.
Aka, a 10-year-old American Eskimo mutt, disappeared from the Sao family's backyard in 2011 but turned up at the department's Baldwin Park center on Tuesday.
By 6:20 p.m., she was back in the arms of the family, said Evelina Villa, spokeswoman for the County of Los Angeles Department of Animal Care and Control.
"The whole family was over the moon," Villa said.
"It's always heartwarming to reunite pets with their owners, particularly when they have children," she said. "I know the kids thought someone stole the dog and then after months of nothing they thought she was killed."
Last year, the department returned 5,470 animals to their owners - 11 of those due to microchips.
"As standard procedure, we scan every animal for a microchip that comes into our care for this very reason," said DACC director Marcia Mayeda in a statement.
The Baldwin Park animal shelter is more than 20 miles away from the Soa family's home.
"It happens, but for this to happen after two years is pretty unique," Villa said. "And the fact the dog ended up at the Baldwin Park Center, which is pretty far from his home, is kind of interesting."
The person who brought Aka to the center did not disclose any details about the dog and its life during the last two years, officials said.
"Only the dog will know," Villa said.

Billy Currington tops chart with latest single
Listen to Billy Currington on iHeartRadio
Billy Currington has another chart-topper to his credit with his latest single, "Hey Girl." The country star says the track has become a fan favorite in concert.
Currington admits it took his audience some time to warm up to the song. He explains that he started performing "Hey Girl" in concert right after it was released, and fans were naturally a little less enthusiastic when they were unfamiliar with the song.
"Hey Girl" is the lead-off single from Currington's latest album, We Are Tonight.

Chas Co. Dispatch not required to answer all 911 calls
WCBD-TV: News, Weather, and Sports for Charleston, SC
From our Partners at WCBD-TV:
But, when she first called 911, the phone rang for 33 seconds with no answer, according to Shuler. The second call lasted 45 seconds and still no one answered the phone. It wasn't until the third call that Shuler got this response:
"Ma'am, we're extremely busy right now, I'm sorry," a Dispatch operator said.
Shuler became visibly upset during the phone call saying, "What if I had been stabbed in the throat or something?"
James Lake, Director of the Charleston County Consolidated 9-1-1 Center, said 21 people were working that night. However, five were actually responsible answering the phones. Those five workers were busy handling five emergencies.
"Others were actually operating as dispatchers and working the radios as well," Lake said.
According to documents obtained by News 2, the dispatch center's busiest days are Friday and Saturday. Despite the busy time, Lake said they don't staff extra workers on those busiest days because it is hard to see into the future.
"It's a problem anytime a call is not answered," he said. "However there is no way to staff or to prepare for the number of calls we might receive."
The Director said his 9-1-1 center is exceeding state and national standards. He said those standards don't require a center to answer every call that comes in.
"When someone calls 9-1-1, someone should answer the phone," Lake said. It didn't [happen] this time, and we don't all the time," he said.
Lake went on to say that they miss calls every day and will continue to do so.
Shuler said being too busy for her call is not an excuse.
"The one entity on this planet that I don't feel like 'I'm sorry we're too busy right now' should be an acceptable answer is 9-1-1," she said.
Lake said when Shuler called, the center attempted to call her back five times. Shuler's phone records do not show these missed calls. Lake said that, if someone calls the center and doesn't get an answer, they should stay on the line and not hang-up. If they do hang-up the call, it creates a backlog for the center.
He said that Shuler should have stayed on the line longer.
"Her phone call would have been answered in approximately 20 seconds more, although it is a long time to be on the line to be calling 911, the call would have been answered and the response would have been quicker," Lake said.
News 2 pushed Lake to see if there were going to be any changes made to the staffing level because of this, he said the staffing is fine.
"No, we won't be going back to adjust it," Lake said. "We are staffed accordingly due to call data history."
According to the National Fire Protection Association, the Dispatch center is expected to answer 99 percent of calls within 40 seconds. Documents show that the center fell just short of that standard last year, answering 98.5% of calls.

Floating Point Compare
You want to compare two floating-point numbers and know if they are equal. Unfortunately, floating-point arithmetic is not precise so very few results will match exactly. Consequently, we usually want to compare floating point values up to a certain number of decimal places.
Implement a "fuzzy match" on two real numbers where the difference is below some epsilon threshhold.
In these cases, you can use floating-point byte strings to represent and compare numbers:
fuzzy_match(A,B,L) -> <<AT:L/binary, _/binary>> = <<A/float>>, <<BT:L/binary, _/binary>> = <<B/float>>, AT == BT. 1> A = 8.001e-3 * 9.001e5. 7201.70 2> B = 8.0011e-3 * 9.001e5. 7201.79 3> A == B. false 4> fuzzy_match(A,B,3). true 5> fuzzy_match(A,B,4). false
Another option is to convert the numbers into strings and then compare the portions of the numbers of interest:
equal_to_digit(A,B,D) -> [As0,Bs0] = io_lib:fwrite("~.*f~.*f", [D+1,A-trunc(A),D+1,B-trunc(B)]), As = string:substr(As0,1,D+2), Bs = string:substr(Bs0,1,D+2), As == Bs. 5> equal_to_digit(7201.700099999999, 7201.790110000001,1). true 6> equal_to_digit(7201,700099999999, 7201.790110000001,2). false
Note: Some error handling would obviously be necessary to handle cases where the digits are insufficient for the match.

Whether you're looking to upgrade your current Blu-ray player or purchase your very first one, there are several features you should consider when determining which model to buy. With technology growing by leaps and bounds, the features that can be found on Blu-ray players today are much more advanced than even a few years ago. While price is a major factor in any purchase, you should focus more on the features of each player so you won't have to upgrade too soon.
Blu-ray discs provide high-definition content that is best viewed on a high-definition television that offers a resolution of 1080p. You can connect a Blu-ray player to any television that has a composite video or HDMI input, but if it is not a 1080p HD TV, you won't be taking advantage of the Blu-ray's high-definition content. Before making your purchase, consider these Blu-ray player features. You may find some that you don't absolutely need, while others may turn out to be a must for you.
Internet Connectivity
Several Web sites, including Netflix, Amazon.com, Hulu and Blockbuster, offer the ability to stream content to a computer or television. If you'd like to be able to view online content on your television, you need a piece of equipment capable of connecting to the Internet and streaming the content. There are several types of devices capable of streaming content, including gaming consoles, streaming devices and Blu-ray players. Any of these devices will allow you to stream movies and other content from the Internet, but buying a Blu-ray player with Internet means one less piece of equipment and more money in your pocket. When shopping for Internet-ready Blu-ray players, you'll find three different varieties: built-in WiFi, WiFi ready or Ethernet. Units with built-in WiFi can pick up the signal from your existing wireless network, which means you don't need to connect any additional cables. WiFi ready Blu-ray players require an adaptor to connect to your wireless network. These adaptors can cost $80 or more, so be sure to factor this cost in when comparing prices. For Ethernet models, you'll need to connect an Ethernet cable to your Blu-ray player to stream content.
BD-Live is a newer feature offered on some Blu-ray discs that allows users to stream additional multimedia from the Internet or access interactive Internet content. If accessing this type of content is important to you, you will need a Blu-ray player that offers this feature. If you opt for a model that does not offer BD-Live content, you'll still be able to watch the movie, you just won't be able to access the Internet extras. Be sure to read each model's specifications carefully because there are BD-Live and "BD-Live ready" Blu-ray players. Those that are BD-Live ready require additional memory, either via a USB memory stick or hard drive, to access the additional content.
Although 3-D television for the home are relatively new and still quite expensive, you should give some thought to 3-D media if you're purchasing a Blu-ray player in the near future. In order to watch 3-D movies, you need a 3-D television and a 3-D Blu-ray player. Even if you don't plan to upgrade to a 3-D TV anytime soon, you may want to choose a 3-D Blu-ray player now so you don't have to buy another one when you upgrade your television in the future.
I hope this information helps you shop for the Blue-ray player that's right for you!

SF Norge acquires majority share in Motion Blur
Subsidiary of Scandinavian major Svensk Filmindustri has acquired a 51% majority share in the Norwegian production entity.
SF Norge, a subsidiary of Scandinavian major Svensk Filmindustri, has acquired a 51% majority share in the Norwegian production entity Motion Blur, entering into a partnership with its co-owners Harald Zwart, Veslemøy Ruud Zwart, Espen Sandberg, Joachim Rønning and Espen Horn.
Motion Blur recently launched Motion Blur Film which will produce features for the Norwegian and the international market, and currently has three feature film projects in development.
Svensk Filmindustri will distribute the Motion Blur feature films on all media in the Nordic region as well as handling international sales.
Horn commented: "Motion Blur is mainly a commercial film production entity, but many of the directors and producers involved in the operation also have a great desire to make feature films. SF is a leading player in this field and the new partnership with them is a perfect match. We aim to be the most attractive commercial and feature film producer in Norway within 3-5 years. With SF on board we have every chance to achieve this, says Espen Horn.
"SF Norge has a long-standing partnership with Harald Zwart, Veslemøy Ruud Zwart and Espen Horn and I am very pleased to develop this relationship further. Motion Blur is a very exciting company with great potential and I am convinced that we will make a mark in the Norwegian film production community in the future. I am especially looking forward to be working with Espen Sandberg and Joachim Rønning, who without a doubt are two of the most talented and successful directors on the Nordic film scene today," added Rasmus Ramstad [pictured], chairman of the board at SF Norge.

#1. Alaska
Hey, we've got a trip going, it involves glacier camping in Alaska's Glacier Bay National Park for a month and splitboarding up peaks with Jeremy Jones, Travis Rice, Jonaven Moore, Johan Olofsson, and guide Tom Burt, and taking the hard way down. You want to go?! Photographer Dan Milner signed up for the mission and brought back what we think is the most epic adventure story and images of the year. The fourteen-page feature is in the January issue. It's part of a two-year film called Deeper, produced by TGR. "
"… I pull my boot liners from the bottom of my sleeping bag where they've been surviving the cold alongside camera batteries, and push them into stubborn, frozen boots, scrambling from my tent to face the first warming rays of sunrise and smiles all round."—Dan Milner

CS29TXV: Vaquero Voyager Ex. Large Plain Edge
Cold Steel
The KnifeCenter considers the Vaquero series of folders from Cold Steel to be among the best knives produced over the last 20 years. The Voyager series in general are well designed and very well made and any Voyager will serve the user well for many years. Materials are all very good and the action and lockups are fast and solid. The Vaquero series, though, is especially suited to very quick slicing or tearing. The shape of the blade makes this knife a very effective slicer.
Cold Steel says:"The Vaquero Voyager Series folders all feature our distinctive "S-Curve" clip point blade style. They are precision flat ground to form a long, shallow "V" shaped cross section. This is ideal for shearing through thick, fibrous materials such as manila rope, cable, hose, belts, etc. The serrated edges form a sinuous double curve. This means that whatever material is struck with the inward curving portion of the edge (near the hand) will automatically force the remaining curved edge entirely through.
These strong, handsome folders deliver an unequalled fit and finish. They are carefully machined and hand fitted by master craftsmen who take great pride in their work. Feel the power of the massively strong locking mechanisms as you thumb one of these blades open. The deeply checkered, and ergonomically designed Zytel® handles are cleverly reinforced with enough rigidity, strength, and toughness to virtually last a lifetime. Double thumb studs on each side of the razor sharp blade allow you to open these folders with either hand in the blink of an eye.
For convenience, a black stainless steel pocket clip is included. This allows for safe and secure carry in any environment."

A very widely used EDC steel, AUS-8 can take a very nice edge while also maintaining moderate edge holding and corrosion resistance properties.
The lockback system has been used for many decades. It can usually be found on the knife spine and it provides a strong lockup that will wear well.
Includes a pocket clip for easy accessibility and a more secure carry.
A nylon polymer that is lightweight and extremely durable, Zytel can be shaped and textured to provide excellent grip.

If I were to post a picture of how I spent my vacation, it would only show a picture of my poor computer, but I would love to see how other members spent theirs! If you have recently returned from a holiday and have photos to share, please take advantage of this thread.
But, we need to have a few simple rules:
For any photo you post in this thread, make sure you add a description of the photo. Tell us about the photo and (if you like) give us some info about your camera and photo-taking technique.
If you have a gallery of vacation photos (e.g. at Facebook or on a site like Flicker), add a link to it rather than post them all here.
I am so much busy in my business that I have no spare time for vacations and I am so much sad at this. First you suggest me how to skip these business activities and find a way to some good place for vacations.
OK, this may not count (as is was a few months back) but it's not holiday season where I live! My family spent some time in Lorne, a town along the beautiful Great Ocean Road in Victoria, Australia. We met these gorgeous kookaburras, who were so tame that they were happy for us to pat them. If you are not familiar with these birds, they are are renowned for their raucous laughing.
I have always wondered what they looked like. When I was a little girl in brownie scouts we learned the kookaburra song.
<snip> Oops I didn't check for copyright. Find the words on Wikipedia.
Heh heh, I'm surprised you learned that in the U.S!
Oh WOW! I edited the post. Silly me. I learned it so long ago that I didn't think it could still be copyright, but it apparently is.
Sorry, I was just being cheeky. I didn't mean to scare you, but you never know, I guess! The company that now owns the song seems pretty ... well, I'd better stop.
I read an article about that company after I saw your post and I get your drift. They do seem pretty... well, not so pretty.
I may have some pictures after the current holiday season, we'll see.
Last June we went to one of the tourist spot here in the Philippines..if you are nature lover you will love this place..its Coron Palawan Philippines
@anna2112 : Lovely pictures. It looks like a very relaxing place to visit!
Wow lovely holidays! I wan't to go there. OMG, I love it.

Ruston, La. • The Aggies were about to leave Louisiana Tech's home court with their worst drubbing of the season to show for it. Just five minutes more, a loss would've been all the trip cost them.
Then Spencer Butterfield went down, and he didn't get back up.
Butterfield was carried off the floor by his teammates and athletic trainer Mike Williams. He then was whisked to the locker room, and the rest of the healthy Utah State roster joined him after an 84-61 loss in Ruston to the WAC leaders on Thursday night.
But instead of just a loss, Butterfield's injury could be a crushing blow to anything the Aggies hope to accomplish for the rest of the season. He was taken to a local hospital after the game for evaluation.
The extent of his injury wasn't immediately known following the game, but the agony in his face spoke of another devastating roster hit on the horizon.
"Sometimes you run out of gas, and we might," coach Stew Morrill said. "If you don't have enough bullets, it's tough. And we keep losing bullets."
The Aggies never stood much of a chance after the first 10 minutes. Louisiana Tech blitzed them from the start.
Utah State was overwhelmed on all levels: balls being knocked out of the Aggies' hands, shots swishing past them into nets, blocks being swatted back in their faces. The lead swelled to 29 in the first half alone, and the Louisiana Tech bench outscored the Aggies as the Bulldogs took a 49-23 lead into intermission.
The full-court press was as tough as advertised. Louisiana Tech forced 15 turnovers, 12 of them in the first half. The Bulldogs were also sensational offensively, shooting 50 percent from the floor and leaving the Aggies' defense looking disorganized

Trigonometric solve
Dear all,
I have a fairly simple question that i was not able to figure out on
I have function KI with two variables gama and teta. Gama varies over a
predefined range for which the values are input.
Then I take the derivative of KI with respect to teta "AA" as gama
varies. So I obtain a list of expressions for AA {...,.....,....} as
gama varies in the range.
Last thing I do is try to solve each element AA with respect to teta. I
thought this would give me a list of teta solutions {.,..}.
But i have an empty set. On the other hand when i define gama as a
single variable not over a range. Solution is found for teta.
How do I input each element of AA into the solver? (i.e. see below for
the simplified code)
gama=Range[ ......]

As far are I believe I want to test and see how my description looks like before I submit it for the review. So once it's approved I don't have to go check whether everything went well with the tags.
Currently the only way you can see the final preview is if your item gets soft rejected or gets approved. Anyone has any thoughts?

Laci Szabo is a law enforcement officer, a veteran U.S. Marine, and a world-class martial artist. He is also one of the most visionary knife designers in the industry, combining a unique flair for aesthetics with an in-depth understanding of function and defensive application.
The heart of Spyderco's Szabo folder is its 4.60-inch CPM S30V scimitar-shaped blade. Its partial hollow grind creates excellent edge geometry while reinforcing the spine for increased strength. A Trademark Round Hole™ in the blade supports swift one-handed opening with either hand and, together with a subtle guard on the edge side of the blade, effectively protects the user's hand during use. An unsharpened swedge on the back of the blade ensures an acute point and flows smoothly into a scalloped area on the spine that enhances the blade's trapping potential when applied with reverse-grip skills.
The Szabo's generously sized handle is constructed of full stainless steel liners capped by Gold Line carbon fiber/G-10 laminate scales. This striking material consists of an outer layer of carbon fiber embedded with gold-colored wire that is laminated to a G-10 base layer. Visually stunning yet incredibly durable, it provides a secure, non-slip grip.
To cope with the extreme leverages associated with its longer blade, the Sazabo folder features Spyderco's high-stength Compression Lock accompanied by an internal "self-close" mechanism. Nested within one of the handle halves, this mechanism uses a spring piston to engage a plate attached to the blade tang. When the blade is closed, the piston gains mechanical leverage to rotate the plate, keeping the blade nestled securely in the handle for safe carriage. A four-position clip supports tip-up or tip-down carry on either side of the body.
A dynamic synthesis of form and function, the Laci Szabo folder faithfully captures both the creativity and practicality of its designer.

(Guidelines for schools who wish to offer approved courses via the Internet).
In order for distance education programs to be approved they must meet the needs of the students who are remote from the instructor. Distance education programs must offer the same commitment given in the classroom method of delivery.
Students must be provided with complete information on the nature and the specifics of the distance education program. Because the courses involve technologies, it is imperative that complete definitions and specifications are made available to the students in a complete information packet.
The information provided needs to cover all the information that is typically provided to a traditional classroom student. In addition, the material must address the special requirements that the distance education course requires.
It is the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation's policy that a student enrolled in a distance education program must receive the following information prior to beginning a course:
Faculty contact information (telephone, e-mail, voicemail, address, etc.)
Homework assignments
Testing information (sites, proctors, etc.)
Any broadcast schedules, class schedules, etc.
List of student material required (software, specialized Internet services, etc.)
Grading and course credit information
Distance site locations
Procedures for missed technology sessions
Resource information
Toll free numbers
Registration and withdrawal periods
ADA information (includes special needs)
Mailing procedures
Technology support services available to students
Completion and assignment time lines
Issuance of certificates of completion to students upon completion of program
Student Support Services
Distance education often needs to provide a range of informational and advising processes to serve diverse students in distance education classes. The important student-instructor relationship in distance education should be established at the beginning
of each course.
Reporting Procedures
Internet programs are subject to the same reporting procedures presently in place.

OMG!!!!! This has gotta be the best iOS that Apple has ever released
I want to see more photos!!! I want to see how this new notification UI looks!! Great job on the coverage!!
Apple fanboys are always crying that others are copying from apple but now iOS 5 seems to be loaded with Android, RIM and Microsoft features.
If any of these companies behave the way apple has (like suing HTC for using swipe to unlock) we should see a plethora of lawsuits soon.
supports same devices as the last ios update
Still no "quick reply" feature... disappointing. Def an improvement though.
YESS! Swipe to delete songs and playlists! I could honestly care less about twitter, its the little things like this I WANT!!!! and wireless sync(:
Not really a major update in my opinion.
Half of these features have been copied from Android and BlackBerry.
Why must Apple give features that many people don't want!
Where the hell is the iPhone 5?!?!?!
5 years for a decent (I hope) notification system? Really, apple? AND it sounds like a copy of androids system! Then there's the iCloud that I believe amazon did 1st. What was the tag line from the last keynote thing again? "year of the copy cats" I recall. What a bunch of hypocrites apple are lol. That aside, I'm more annoyed the iPhones UI interface look is still on the ugly extremely outdated grey! I'm seriously starting to lose faith in apples ability to be original....
Until, that is, we get to the iCloud service. I hate Apple to its core, but this is one giant frikkin' Ace up their sleeve.
Jailbreakers should be very, very worried.
no update for maps again!

WATCH: Army wife surprises husband returning from Afghanistan by losing 100 pounds
(Liz Klimas) For the months that Misty Shaffer's husband was deployed in Iraq with the U.S. Army, she was plotting a big surprise with him.
When she would communicate with her husband overseas for more than a year, she would tell him about her effort to lose a few pounds and sent him a few pictures of her progress showing herself only from the shoulders up.
But when Specialist Larry Shaffer stepped off the plane in his hometown of Wilmington, North Carolina, last week and was greeted by a large crowd, he told Yahoo! Shine he was "speechless"when he spotted his wife.
Misty had lost 100 pounds.

Keep an eye on this area of convection off the southeast coast. Thunderstorm activity associated with this non tropical low has been increasing this morning, and it looks like this is going to have either tropical development or non-tropical development over the next couple of days. This is showing potential for decent surf for the Mid Atlantic and Northeast.

A snowmobiler was killed after being caught in a central Utah avalanche Friday.
James Childs, who is thought to be about 32, was killed after being buried in a slide that was 150 yards wide, 100 yards long and at least 10 feet deep, the Sanpete County Sheriff's Office said in a tweet late Friday.
Childs was in an area of the Manti-LaSal National Forest about 10 miles southwest of the town of Ferron, Sanpete County Sheriff's Office dispatchers said. The area is just inside Sevier County near its border with Emery County, Sanpete dispatchers said.
The avalanche occurred about 4 p.m. Search and rescue teams from Sanpete and Sevier counties responded and a medical helicopter was also involved in the rescue effort. Search teams first found Childs' snowmobile and then his body. A doctor on the search and rescue team pronounced Childs dead at the scene, the sheriff's office said in a tweet. It was Utah's third avalanche death of the year.
It's not clear whether the Childs was alone.
A preliminary report on the avalanche posted on the Utah Avalanche Center website said the accident occurred in the 12 Mile Canyon area near the southern end of a well-known recreation area called the Manti Skyline. The report states the snowmobiler was caught, carried and fully buried in the avalanche.
Avalanche center forecasters plan to visit the area on Saturday to provide a more detailed report, the post states.
