Ok, this is my latest fic. It was a REALLY long chapter, because I am REALLY into this one, so I think it deserves all the reviews it can get. Hint Hint. ;)
'Italics' - Naruto(/someone else) thinking/talking to Kyuubi.
'Bold' - Kyuubi talking back.
Enjoy! =D
World Domination.
Chapter 1.
"Naruto. I swear to god if you ever do that again, this whole village is going to murder you. I do NOT want you going out on solo missions. Ok?" Tsunade said sternly from behind her Hokage desk.
Naruto rolled his eyes and winced as it pulled at a cut on his cheek.
"It was just a-"
"NARUTO!" Came a screech. Naruto visibly cringed as the door swung open with a bang and was slammed shut.
"S-S-Sakura-Chan." Naruto stuttered slightly.
Sakura walked right up to him and punched him in the face. Naruto keeled over and smashed into the wall.
"O…w…" Naruto groaned. Sakura took him by the shoulders and shook him, turning whatever was left of his brain, into scrambled egg.
"I found information Sakura-Chan! And I'm alive! See?"
Suddenly there was a tremendous crash.
"You won't be for much longer." Tsunade muttered. Sakura's eyes also widened and she went to stand behind Tsunade.
"NARUTO. UZUMAKI." Came a roar.
Naruto gulped.
"Oh crap." He whispered fearfully, wondering if he could make a break for it before- too late.
The door was broken off of its hinges with a forceful punch.
"WHERE IS HE!" Kakashi roared from the doorway. Then his eyes settled on the fidgeting blonde.
There was a flash of silver and Naruto screamed.
Having finished being beaten to a messy pulp by the white haired Jounin Sensei, Naruto clambered painfully out of the newly made crater in the wall.
Kakashi took one last deep breath and sighed.
"Basically Naruto…Everyone was concerned…" Tsunade said gravely.
"And sure as hell if you EVER do it again, you'll be in hospital for a MONTH after I've finished with you." Kakashi growled. Naruto gulped visibly.
"That's where this is going to come in…Naruto. I want you to follow me. We have something to show you." Tsunade said standing up and making her way to the entrance to her office.
She went to put her hand out to open the door and frowned. There wasn't a door.
"Hatake." Tsunade muttered angrily.
"I…uh…Sorry about that." Kakashi grinned apologetically, rubbing his neck in embarrassment.
With an irritated sigh Tsunade walked over the threshold and started to walk the Hokage building's corridor.
Team Kakashi falling into step behind her.
Kakashi walked alongside Tsunade quickly.
"Has he finished it yet?" Tsunade asked him quietly. Kakashi stared at the looming staircase ahead of them as he answered.
Sakura was talking, or rather arguing to Naruto in the background, so they had no worries of being overheard at this level of voice.
"Yes. He finished about two hours ago and promptly passed out. He woke up when I rushed out to come and…ahem…collect…Naruto."
"This is supposed to be strong. Right?" Tsunade asked again.
"Yes. He started it as soon as he heard that Naruto had left a week ago. He heard about it the next day, the same as I did. I knew you would want something done, so I requested it immediately. He has progressed on it everyday. Seals have been etched in to every part of it. As I said, it was finished not two hours ago." Kakashi confirmed, noticing how it set her at ease slightly as they all descended the stairs.
"Good. We may need both of your help to get him in there." Tsunade said shortly.
"Yes my lady." Kakashi nodded, giving her a slight incline of his head.
Naruto, however, was feeling more than slightly uneasy. He hurt all over and his conversation with Sakura had died out slowly but surely as the corridor got slightly longer and narrower.
His uneasiness grew into a tight knot as he saw one lone door at the end of the never-ending hallway. He gulped inaudibly and for some reason he started to sweat slightly.
As they reached the door, he suddenly felt a slight clawing from within him. Kyuubi was trying to tell him something.
He ignored it, as it probably wasn't important. It was most likely Kyuubi getting annoyed at Naruto's fear. As usual.
Tsunade glanced at Kakashi and he put his hand on the handle. Wasting no time he opened the door and let it swing open to reveal and incredibly large room.
Which was very dimly lit.
And right in the centre, with Captain Yamato standing next to it wearily, was a wooden cage.
Naruto gasped slightly as he took it in. It was huge. It was big enough to fit three of the nine-tails in it and still be able to hold together.
As he took a closer look at it, he noticed it could too. There were seals embedded in the wood at every point.
"Hey! Woah! What's that?"
"That, Naruto, is generally known in the world as a cage."
"I know that. I mean, what's it for…As in, what is it doing here?"
Kakashi, Sakura and Yamato all avoided his gaze. Naruto frowned as he didn't receive an answer.
Tsunade stepped forward slightly.
"Naruto. None of us want to lose you, and this is the best way we could think of. We can no longer take chances." She said firmly.
Then the realisation of what was happening dawned on Naruto.
He slowly started to shake his head, as if he couldn't quite believe it, and deep inside, he felt the nine-tails' anger start to boil in it's chakra system which ran throughout his own body.
"No…N-No…You wouldn't…" He stuttered, shaking his head slightly faster now as he backed away one step.
"Captain Yamato…?" He said, looking at the worn out wood specialist who avoided his stare in shame.
"…Obaa-Chan…?" Naruto turned to look at her, and she stared back sadly.
"…Kakashi Sensei…?" He said, tears starting to fill his eyes. Kakashi's jaw locked to prevent him from saying anything.
"S-S-Sak…Sakura-Chan…?" He choked out, turning to look at the pinkette wildly. She nodded, tears starting to fill her own eyes too.
"No…No…NO!" Naruto screamed. This time, he could hear the nine-tails communicating with him as clear as day.
'Why didn't you listen to me, you ignorant brat!'
'It's not my fault I trust my friends!'
'You idiot, I DO believe you just used the present tense. I think you meant to use the past version of the verb, as in TRUSTED.'
Distressed and panicked, Naruto spun on his heel and took off for the exit as fast as he could.
But Kakashi was faster. He appeared in front of Naruto and put a hand on his chest and slamming him heavily to the floor. Sakura gasped and put a hand to her mouth in worry.
Naruto struggled, but Kakashi held him, pinning him firmly to the floor.
"Yamato. The gate." Kakashi shouted. Yamato nodded and hurriedly performed some seals to open a section of the cage. It did so with a colossal crash of wood.
Then, Kakashi picked Naruto up bodily, and they both struggled against each other as Kakashi moved towards the cage.
Naruto kicked and punched uselessly. But then he managed to get in one good punch to Kakashi's left side of his face, making him lose his vision for a second.
Naruto was dropped to the floor and he stood up hastily, but before he could even move, something happened which no one had expected.
Sakura had moved in a blinding blur of pink, and within seconds she was kissing Naruto. Tears streaming down her face as she cupped his face with one hand, and ran her other through his tousled blonde hair.
Then it was over, leaving a startled Naruto with his eyes closed as he trembled with broken sobs.
"Do it." Tsunade said as she grabbed Sakura to get her out of harms way.
Kakashi nodded and grabbed Naruto's shoulders, quickly running with him and putting him into the open cage.
Naruto opened his eyes in shock as he realised what had happened.
Sakura had tricked him.
"NO!" He yelled desperately, starting to run after them as Kakashi ducked out of the cage.
The cage slammed closed as Naruto hit the bars. He tried pulling them apart with brute strength. He tried to do Rasengan but the seals sucked the chakra away from him as soon as it formed.
Taijutsu, Ninjutsu, Genjutsu.
He tried it all as the four of them watched him attack the cage in every way he could.
But true to Kakashi's word, Yamato's cage held.
Defeated, Naruto slid to the floor and punched it repeatedly, screaming in frustration.
Sakura couldn't take it anymore. Her tears were flowing thick and fast as she watched her last remaining team-mate nearly pull himself to pieces.
"N-N-Na-Nar-Naruto…I-I-I'm…S-So sorry…" Sakura cried, running out of the room, her running footsteps and crying echoing down the corridor.
Tsunade looked at Kakashi and Yamato.
"You two, Sakura, Iruka, Gai and Asuma and I will be the only ones who know about this. From now on this is an S-class secret. Understood? I will send Iruka and Asuma to take over as a night shift." Tsunade said in a hard voice.
They nodded to show they had heard. But their main attention was on Naruto as he leaked a different chakra.
The nine-tails chakra.
Tsunade glanced at it and hmm'd, walking out of them room and closing the door to go and find her student and to calm her down.
Iruka Umino looked up from his paperwork as a bright pink figure burst into the empty classroom.
"IRUKA-SENSEI, THEY ARE SUCH BASTARDS! AND I'M ONE OF THEM!" Sakura cried desperately, tears still streaking down her face.
To say that Iruka was astonished was an understatement.
"SAKURA HARUNO!" Came the Hokage's voice.
"Fuck. Hide me!" Sakura hissed, fear entering her eyes.
Wordlessly, Iruka nodded to the cupboard at the back of the classroom. Wasting no time, Sakura darted up the stairs and into the cupboard, closing the door softly behind her as she quickly and quietly clambered inside it.
Iruka performed a quick seal and thrust his hand at the window, opening it wide with a bang. He picked up his pen again and put a stupefied expression on his face.
Seconds later, the door burst open again to reveal Tsunade in a glorious fury. Iruka stood up and bowed to her respectively.
"Hokage-Sama." He said looking up at her worriedly.
"Where is Haruno?" She asked, her eyes blazing with anger.
"She ran through here and escaped out the window. Although I don't know as to why. But she seemed rather upset…Is everything alright?" He asked in concern.
"…I wish I could say it was Iruka. I intended to let you know, in the furthest section of the S-basement, I'm sure you know of door sixty six?"
Iruka felt his eyes widen in surprise.
"Well…Yes…I was only there once…When Naruto was born and the Kyuubi sealed inside of him…"
"Good. At seven o'clock this evening, you and Asuma Sarutobi are to take over the night shift there until seven in the morning tomorrow. Kakashi Hatake and Captain Yamato are down there and will brief you on what to do when you arrive."
"Oh…Uh…Yes my lady." Iruka stammered hastily.
"Good." Tsunade said shortly, turning on her heel and leaving.
Iruka waited until he heard her footsteps fade before sitting down. He picked up his pen and started to work again, filling in papers at his desk.
The cupboard door opened slightly with a creak. He didn't look up from his work.
Sakura gulped. That wasn't good.
She tip-toed out and went to stand in front of his desk, her hands behind her back and looking at the floor as though she was an academy student who had misbehaved.
Iruka took a deep breath as he wrote.
"Sakura Haruno." Iruka stated.
"…Yes Iruka Sensei?" Sakura asked quietly, biting the inside of her lip.
"A few things." He said, finally looking up at her. She raised her eyes to meet his disapproving gaze to allow him to continue.
"Firstly. I do not want to hear that indecent language from you in my presence ever again. Understood?"
"Yes sir." Sakura said quietly and respectfully.
"Secondly, I don't know why I covered you, but I want a full explanation as to why Lady Hokage was in such a temper with you. And lastly, if you ever do that to me again, I will put you in an academy detention whether you are a shinobi or not. Do I make myself clear?" He said sternly.
"Perfectly Iruka Sensei." Sakura whispered meekly.
"Good. Glad you get that, because you are a very good Kunoichi and I hear great things about you. I hear great things about you AND Naruto as a matter of fact." Iruka said warmly, his earlier coldness gone. Banished away.
A tear drop hit the wooden floor.
"Sakura…?" Iruka asked worriedly, getting up and kneeling beside her where she suddenly slumped to the floor.
"Sakura what is it?" Iruka asked, his voice rising with panic.
"T-T-They've got N-Naruto…I-I-In room s-s-sixty six.…those…those…they s-s-sealed him in a-a-a c-cage…" Sakura gasped out as she cried again.
Iruka stared at her.
"T-They did what?" Iruka asked, dumbfounded beyond belief.
"That's what you are taking over as a night shift. H-H-He left on a solo mission to hunt down the Akatsuki. ANBU brought him back, and now…he's the S-class secret because he's been put in a cage…It was the only option left…But I just c-c-can't…I don't want t-t-to l-l-leave him…" Sakura explained haltingly as she burst into renewed tears.
She flung herself around Iruka and he jerked in surprise before returning the hug and rubbing her back comfortingly.
But at the same time, he was still trying to comprehend it himself.
Naruto had been…caged?
Back in room sixty six, Kakashi was staring wide eyed at the event which was happening before his eyes.
Whatever Master Jiraiya had seen when the nine-tails' cloak had reached four tails, they could now claim to have seen the furthest stage so far.
Naruto had completely transformed. He'd been screaming in pain at first, his hands getting splintered as he had clutched at the bars in agony. Those hands had become paws of bone with dangerous ebony claws sticking out of them, and his screams had become roars of primal fury.
He was a skeletal version of the Kyuubi he contained.
Or rather, was trying to contain him at that exact moment.
'You can damn well hand over the controls to ME now. Pitiful creature'
'Says you, you stinking fox. This HURTS I tell you! It hurts! Let me go and heal me! I can get out of this myself!'
'It's evident that you can't, brat. Shut up and let me handle this. Once this is done, I'll consider letting you have the controls back and healing you.'
'Shut up with your whining, brat. This is how I feel every day when I'm trapped inside you.'
Yamato tugged at Kakashi's sleeve.
"You seeing what I'm seeing?"
"Yeah, unfortunately. He had the necklace right?"
"That won't work."
"Damn it. I'll try Chidori'ing him." Kakashi said grimly
Suddenly the door burst open.
"YOU'LL DO NO SUCH THING!" Iruka hollered, Sakura right behind him.
"Iruka!" Yamato gasped.
"Sakura!" Kakashi said in a mixture of horror and disapproval, causing her to shrink back behind Iruka.
"You cannot do this to Naruto. Especially thinking of harming him! Kakashi. You once told me, 'look beyond the monster'. You can damn well do so now and take your own advice!" Iruka yelled as he ran up to the cage.
"What the hell does he think he's doing?" Yamato asked nobody in particular.
"NARUTO UZUMAKI! I KNOW YOU'RE IN THERE AND YOU CAN DAMN WELL LISTEN TO ME!" Iruka shouted as loud as his lungs would let him.
'Who does this pesky bastard think he is? He'll be the first one to go.' The nine-tails growled.
'NO! IF YOU DARE, I WILL MAKE YOUR LIFE HELL YOU SON OF A BITCH! LISTEN TO HIM. STOP TRYING TO GET OUT FOR A SECOND AND LISTEN TO HIM…Fluffy.' Naruto yelled at the demon.
'Oh no you didn't.' The Kyuubi said dangerously.
'Yes I damn well did. So LISTEN you no good piece of stuck up fluff ball.'
'Fine. You baka of a brat.'
'I'll take that as a compliment.'
Iruka waited for a few seconds. The skeletal Kyuubi stopped gradually and sat on its haunches.
By the evil glare it seemed to be giving him, Iruka decided that it hadn't been done willingly.
"At the moment, I'm guessing you want out of here."
The Kyuubi growled in affirmation. Iruka bit his lip. At least he seemed to be getting somewhere with it.
"Well…You can't right now." Iruka said nervously.
The Kyuubi roared at him in anger.
"Naruto, I know you're in there. And if you don't stop this RIGHT NOW, I am going to give you SUCH a hiding…" Iruka warned, putting his teacher voice on.
Suddenly he smirked.
"I might make it even worse than the lecture I gave you the day you skipped class to bring back a piece of 'battle treasure'." Iruka said sternly, trying not to laugh.
'What the hell?' The Kyuubi thought disdainfully, anger and confusion radiating from him.
'LET ME OUT! LET ME OUT! LET ME OUT! LET. ME. OUT!' Naruto screamed, panicking big time. At least he understood.
'NO! Why on earth should I do that?'
'Remember that day at the academy when you warned me not to go out to that recently abandoned battlefield?'
'No. Wait…vaguely…Ohhh…Wait a minute…yeah…'
'Remember what happened when the man in front of you, my teacher, caught up with us?'
'…Oh crap.'
'That's what I'm thinking. NOW LET ME THE HELL OUT!'
'Fine. I've had enough. Whatever. But do NOT die you BRAT. And don't go expecting my help and saying 'give me your chakra'. Got it?'
Kakashi and Yamato stood there in confusion as they watched Iruka fold his arms and start tapping his foot as the Kyuubi growled at him and then yip in confusion.
Sakura couldn't help herself, she started laughing. Slowly at first and then into full out laughter.
Kakashi and Yamato turned to look at her, but even that didn't stop her insane giggles.
"Sakura, what is he on about?" Yamato questioned.
"Do you know something here Sakura?" Kakashi asked her, raising an eyebrow.
"Wh-Why yes I do. I don't think there's anyone in the academy who wouldn't remember this little story of Naruto's past." Sakura snorted.
"Oh…?" Yamato glanced at Kakashi.
"One of the guys in the class, Kiba, I think…Had heard about a ninja fight having taken place only an hour before class had started, and he dared Naruto to bring back something from the battle scene such as a kunai." Sakura explained.
"Damn Inuzuka's." Yamato groaned, remembering many a bet he had lost with Hana Inuzuka, Kiba's much older sister.
"I know right? Anyway, Naruto accepted the challenge because he wanted to prove that he could be anyone he wanted to be. He went out before Iruka Sensei had arrived, and when he did arrive, Sasuke told on him. Hah, we'll never know what actually happened out there…"
Kakashi gulped slightly.
He remembered.
He'd saved them both from three ninja who'd come after the skirmish and had tried to take a precious item back.
He remembered it all too well, although he didn't voice this.
"But when they got back, Naruto got SUCH a telling off, AND detention for a month! It was pretty extreme…but he did kind of deserve it. I think Naruto respected Iruka Sensei out of fear mostly back then because of that. I know I would have had it been me…" Sakura said, dissolving into helpless giggles again as she glanced over at Iruka.
Yamato grinned slightly at the tale. He could quite imagine it. Iruka got very…protective…over his students.
They all glanced back over to the cage.
To all of their surprise, much less Iruka's.
The Kyuubi's form was disappearing. Rapidly, as though it was trying to hurry.
Within seconds of it starting, it was finished, and Naruto lay curled up in the corner, moaning in pain.
The Kyuubi was already healing him quickly, they could see that even from a distance, as blood was running up his face and receding back into his skin.
"NARUTO!" Iruka yelled disapprovingly.
"Oh…shit. Not again." Naruto groaned.
"Get over here!" Iruka said sternly.
With a foreboding sigh, Naruto pretty much dragged himself over to Iruka's side of the cage.
"Hey Sensei." Naruto yawned slightly.
"IS THAT ALL YOU HAVE TO SAY FOR YOURSELF?" Iruka hollered at him furiously, nearly bowling Naruto over backwards with the force of it.
Naruto shrank slightly to almost half his size.
"N-N-NO! I didn't mean to! I swear Iruka Sensei! I didn't think that-"
"I'm sorry Iruka Sensei! I won't do it again! I swear!" Naruto cried, shielding himself from Iruka's wrath.
Sakura started laughing again.
"He is so lucky that Iruka Sensei is on the other side of that cage…" She laughed.
"Actually, I should rather think that he is content to stay inside it." Kakashi smiled innocently.
The three of them tried to hold back their grins as Naruto continued to hastily apologise to Iruka who threatened and lectured him.
Suddenly the door opened, and everyone but Naruto and Iruka turned to look.
"…Uhh…Is this a bad time?" Asuma asked from the doorway, raising his eyebrow at them all.
Ok, this is only chapter one, but I've got the next chapter coming in soon.
Please review! =D

It's pretty tough to understand exactly how ludicrously large a figure one trillion dollars is. 'One with twelve zeroes' doesn't do it justice, but instead imagine this: even if you were profligate enough to spend a million dollars a day it would still take you 2,739 years to burn through a trillion dollars. It's that much money.
The owner of such a sum would be wealth enough to give out $140 to everyone on the planet, or – if the whim took them - buy the entirety of central London at today's real estate prices, as The Times has recently reported.
This sort of thought-experiment isn't just financial rubbernecking though, as financial experts don't just expect there to be one trillionaire on Earth pretty soon – they expect there to be eleven of them within about 60 years time.
As the annual Global Wealth Report from Credit Suisse said last year: "Two generations ahead, future extrapolation of current wealth growth rates yields almost a billion millionaires, equivalent to 20 per cent of the total adult population.
What can you buy with a trillion dollars?
What can you buy with a trillion dollars?
1/5 80 burgers for everyone on Earth
If we take the $140 dollar per person figure and convert that into burgers well, that's quite a lot of burgers. 80 per person if we take McDonald's saver menu as our guideline with $2 per person left over - enough for a couple of rounds of chips as well then.
2/5 A year and a half of US military might
A trillion dollars seems like a lot, but with the US defence budget totalling $640 billion annually (that's more than the next eight biggest spenders combined) it wouldn't keep you in aircraft carriers for long. Incidentally, with a pricetag of of $4.5 billion, our trillionaire could buy a pleasing 222.22 (recurring) Nimitz-class aircraft carriers (picture left).
3/5 250,000 Lamborghini Venenos
Well, it depends which cars they were. The most expensive road legal car costs a staggering $4 million - our trillionaire could buy a quarter of a million of them (we say a quarter of a million - only nine of have even been produced). They might instead go for something a little more widely available like the Ford Fiesta - a trillion dollars could buy 83,750,000 of those.
4/5 One eighth of the world's gold
Estimates vary, but there's thought to be around 165,000 metric tons of gold in existence valued at around $1,600 per troy ounce (thats 31.1g as compared to 28.3g of an ordinary ounce). This means that even a trillionaire can't have all the gold in the world which is thought to be worth around $8.5 trillion.
5/5 A battalion of robots on Mars
With a pricetag of $2.5 billion for the Curiosity rover (that includes the spacecraft and scientists' salaries), a trillion dollars could send 400 robots to Mars. That's enough to make up a small battalion (300 to 1,200 soldiers) meaning an invasion of Mars is well within the reach of any demented trillionaire.
"If this scenario unfolds, then billionaires will be commonplace, and there is likely to be a few trillionaires too, eleven according to our best estimate."
So far this all looks on course, with the most recent Forbes rich list showing that to reach the trillionaire mark last year you'd have to add together the net worth of the top 51 richest Americans – this year that number is down to just 37.
Research from Oxfam also gives the disturbing estimation that the richest 85 individuals have as much as half the global population – around 3.5 billion people - while French economist Thomas Piketty has been causing waves with his analysis of global capitalism and the inevitable accumulation of wealth it allows.
"The West, in short, is in a new Gilded Age, where an ever greater share of the national pie is held by the same families, and passed down from generation to generation," writes Rupert Cornwell, summarising Pikkety for The Independent last month.
But who exactly will the first trillionaire be? Most estimates suggest Microsoft founder Bill Gates is the most likely candidate. Already the world's richest man, Gates has an estimated personal fortune of £72 billion, with The Times noting that "if US national wealth grows at the rate it has in recent decades and if the richest few continue to increase their share of it, [Gates] is on track to hit the target in old age."
This sort of prediction has been made before though (Wired magazine thought that Gates would become the world's first trillionaire in 2004) and even in situations of the most extreme and monopolistic capitalism, the trillion mark has still been quite some way off for the world's super-rich.
We can compare Gates with John D. Rockefeller – the American oil tycoon who is generally thought to be the richest individual in recorded history. At its height, Rockefeller's personal wealth is estimated to have made up around 1.5 per cent of the entire US economy, with his fortune equivalent to some $350 billion in today's money. It's a staggering amount of money - but it's still less than halfway to a trillion.
Rockefeller's dominance over his industry was so great that it basically kickstarted the antitrust movement in the US – with new laws introduced to break up the company he founded, Standard Oil, in 1911 as well as ensure that similar monopolist enterprises could not rise again. This makes the sort of wealth accumulation necessary to become a trillionaire difficult – but not impossible.
And if the fabled trillionaire is to arise from any sector of industry, it's likely to be technology, where - as Slates' Elliot Hannon pointed out in reaction to Credit Suisse's report - a global labour pool can be used to "to make affordable products, inexpensive enough that workers can soon become the consumers of the products they are making."Reuse content

No, I mean if you are trying to use a resolution not listed, it's because one of the two driversdon't support it. Trying to add support in any way may leave you booting to a black screen. You need to go to the video card vendor and monitor vendor to get support for that resolution.

You said it
Granted, I am someone who is prone to completing the surveys that arrive in my inbox or pop up on my regularly-visited sites – but I am always curious to know the outcome and never get to find out. So I am sharing some of the information we've discovered and confirmed with the recent survey. First and foremost, there are a number of ways in which Dabble DB helps us with these results. The responses are put into our survey application via the scheduled import feature. The data is always up-to-date and very easy to manipulate.
One of the questions asked you about the ways you use the web database. A quick grouping of the field allows me to create a chart view to look at these different functions in an organized way.
Some of the answers in the Other category were incredibly specific! Obviously there are as many uses for Dabble DB as there are users.
Here are a handful of your favorite features:
- The cut-and-paste import. Hands down.
- The ability to export live views is amazing.
- The speed of creating the data structures I need.
- Nontraditional views (graphs, calendar, map)
- The possibility to change the database after having filled some values. Everything is dynamic.
- Flexibility. In Dabble DB, it's infinity +1. Ease of use, something your team is very careful about, is also heads and shoulders above the alternatives.
As for the feature requests, we heard them loud and clear. Many of them were already on the list. Since he said it so well, I'll quote Luke: "We're always looking for areas where we can make incremental improvements to the user experience and feature set. There will never be a Dabble DB 1.5 or Dabble DB CS 2008 Extended Edition that requires an upgrade disc and installation instructions."
Many thanks to those who responded. Dayna

These quests are similar in scope to Erbequests, but the rewarded items are new to EverQuest II rather than being familiar items from EverQuest.
Signature Quests were first introduced in the Kingdom of Sky expansion, and commonly involve a series of quests ultimately rewarding a big item. Many of the intermediate steps also might reward very fine items.

text: "Perfect Day" is a logical extension of Lou Reed's work up through Transformer (1972); he always had a bit of Brill Building, if not Tin Pan Alley songwriting in him. The song begins as traditional jazz-pop songcraft, like the classic nuggets churned out by those tune factories. Over a lazy progression of piano chords, a bastardized Burt Bachrach-type of arrangement, Reed drawls like a modern-day Perry Como: "Just a perfect day/Drink sangria in the park/And then later when it gets dark, we go home/Oh, it's such a perfect day/I'm glad I spend it with you/Oh, such a perfect day/You just keep me hanging on." But this being Reed, in a way the anti-Como, the summery song soon takes a turn for the dark side, even if only subtly so: "Just a perfect day/You made me forget myself/I thought I was someone else, someone good," ending with the menacing refrain of, "You're going to reap just what you sow/You're going to reap just what you sow." He takes the pernicious approach of Brian Wilson to a new level. What has made such a day turn so sour? Why is the narrator so bitter? We don't know for sure, but he certainly seems to be at war with himself. It appears that the "perfect day" is now just a memory, and as in an old blues, country, or folk song, the narrator warns of some impending doom, tragedy for the addressee of the lyric for apparently doing him wrong and denying him further such idyllic moments. The intermingling light and dark made the song a perfect centerpiece for the film adaptation of Irvine Welsh's novel exploring heroin use, Trainspotting (1996). Reed is accompanied by only the piano, a small jazz rhythm section, and light orchestration, which swells during the chorus, wherein Reed outrightly croons. The strings build to a crescendo before gliding into the coda refrain. The student aids the master on this record; David Bowie -- who had long before acknowledged Reed's influence -- produces Transformer, the second post-Velvet Underground Reed solo album, and gives Reed's career a much-needed boost. Surprisingly, Bowie sideman, Mick Ronson, known more for his identifiable electric guitar punch, supplies the traditional, decidedly non-rock & roll arrangement.

In the spirit of full disclosure, I am a coffee snob and I've spent a fortune on coffee beans, coffee makers and specialty coffees. However, my quick morning coffee has always come from a local convenience store. When the store tried to upgrade their coffee, there was an outcry of amazing proportion. We wanted our regular coffee back. What we wanted, though we didn't know it, was Mother Parker's Coffee. Nothing fancy, nothing purified or hand-picked, nothing from a fancy package. Just a good cup of coffee that we wanted back.

Judges chose the idea of a deep tissue surgical probe with OCT variable tuning as the winner of this year's Dare-to-Dream Medtech Design Challenge.
Marie Thibault
A device focused on expanding the applications of optical coherence tomography (OCT) is the winner of the 2016 Dare-to-Dream Medtech Design Challenge.
The entry, Deep Tissue Probe with OCT Variable Tuning, would enable OCT to be used deeper within the body to diagnose and treat medical issues. The idea was submitted by Thomas Mowery, who explained that in his 38-year career as an anesthesiologist and pain management doctor he had "performed thousands of 'blind' interventions" with "inevitable failures."
Mowery wrote that although OCT is currently used in imaging and tissue visualization of shallower areas like coronary arteries and the gastrointestinal tract, his dream device would "capture the OCT signals at a surface focal point and extend its diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities deep into the anatomy of animals and humans."
Learn about "How to Design a Wireless Medical Device in Two 'Easy' Steps" at BIOMEDevice San Jose, December 7-8.
"It expands the use of OCT for a number of pain management procedures where medications are administered into the potential spaces around the spinal cord (e.g. into the intrathecal or the epidural space)," said judge Stephanie Kreml, MD, chief medical officer for Accordion Health. "While ultrasound and fluoroscopy are sometimes used, many times physician rely on tactile feedback as the needle pierces through the ligaments and dural layers surrounding the cord to make sure they are entering the right space. Integrating OCT into the needle tip could allow the physician to visualize these layers and prevent the needle from advancing too far."
|An image of the dream device winner.
Mowery also made an economic case for the OCT deep tissue probe, pointing out that more accuracy could potentially improve outcomes, reduce risk, and make surgical procedures less invasive, cutting costs.
Wende Hutton, a Dare-to-Dream judge and general partner at Canaan Partners, said, "The integration of OCT quality imaging at the end of minimally-invasive instruments could be a true breakthrough in the context of minimally invasive exploratory and complex procedures."
Although the Deep Tissue Probe with OCT Variable Tuning wins the grand prize of $500, first runner-up Smart Active Biopsy Capsule and second runner-up Avalier Pharyngeal Reinforcement System were close behind and will receive $250 and $100, respectively.
The Smart Active Biopsy Capsule, intended to be swallowed by the patient to take a gastrointestinal microbe sample non-invasively, was submitted by Jay McCoy. The Avalier Pharyngeal Reinforcement System, submitted by Nikhil Viswanathan, is a scaffold that would be implanted into the pharynx to allow swallowing with ease for patients with dysphagia.
MD+DI readers voted for their favorite dream medical devices. The winner of the reader poll was Mycrobiome, a connected device that analyzes stool and saliva samples to provide users information about their microbiome and ways to improve it. Reade Harpham, who submitted the idea, wrote that the device was inspired by the prevalence of digestive health problems and the difficulty in diagnosis and treatment.
Kreml, one of the competition judges, acknowledged the "sleek and attractive" design of Mycrobiome, but said with research being conducted on the links between the microbiome and specific medical conditions, "the clinical utility remains to be seen at this point."

Bucharest (AFP) April 01, 2014
Romania has approved an increase in American troops at its military airbase on the Black Sea as Washington continues to shift its main transit base for Afghanistan away from Kyrgyzstan, a report said Tuesday.
Romanian President Traian Basescu sent a letter to parliament approving the US request for 600 more troops at the Mihail Kogalniceanu airport in the southeast of the country, the Agerpres news agency said.
"The request... refers to the deployment of a unit of Marines called the Special Purpose Marine Air-Ground Task Force Crisis Response, with up to 600 soldiers and a number of military aircraft needed to fulfil specific missions," the letter said.
The US is due to abandon by July the Manas airbase in Kyrgyzstan that has been the main transit point for its military personnel and cargo in and out of Afghanistan, after the Kyrgyz government refused to extend the lease last year.
The Mihail Kogalniceanu base, where around 1,000 troops are currently stationed, is due to become the main transit point as the US prepares for a major withdrawal of forces and equipment from Afghanistan later this year.
The US inaugurated the new transit centre in February.
Between 20,000 and 30,000 troops are expected to transfer through the base on their way back from Afghanistan this year.

Hmyz and Hums
I came across an interesting Czech word today – hmyz, which means "insect, ant, bug, creepy-crawly". It appears in my Czech phrasebook in the sentence, "V našem pokoji je hmyz" (There are insects in our room). It sounds like the sounds insects make, but there are other words for hum in Czech – bzučet, vrčet, […]

Closing out

Klaus Kinski
Jump to
Without a doubt the most intense and perhaps insane actor ever to grace the silver screen, Klaus Kinski tapped into his dark inner reaches to deliver a number of spellbinding performances that often bordered on psychosis. With a deep furrowed brow overhanging large malefic eyes that heightened his manic intensity while betraying no inner vulnerability, Kinski had a long, notorious career that both fed on and was complicated by his monumental ego. Though he appeared in over 250 films, the five he made with German compatriot, director Werner Herzog, were the stuff of filmmaking legend. Their combative and codependent collaboration started with "Aguirre, the Wrath of God" (1972), and resumed years later with "Nosferatu the Vampyre" (1979), "Woyzeck" (1979) and "Fitzcarraldo" (1982). All throughout their partnership, both concurrently despised and needed one another, creating an artistic energy neither matched with any other collaborator. Their long-running partnership, which also was a stormy friendship, generated the best work either made in their careers - though often at great emotional, psychological and even physical harm - and ended 15 years after it began with "Cobra Verde" (1987), their least accomplished effort. Though together for only a fraction of their creative outputs, it was impossible to talk of either one without mentioning the other. For Kinski, the collaboration with Herzog proved fruitful artistically, but damaging and soul-wrecking in private.

I wouldn't at all be surprised to learn that somewhere in Chapel Hill, Dean Smith himself had a couple of tears rolling down the cheeks. There's nothing wrong with a little mourning for the end of a staggering, three decade long run of unbroken success, and there's nothing wrong with a lot of empathy for the players and staff on this 2002 team which lost way too many games but never lost its heart.
What heightened the emotions involved in the last night of the season was the fact that this group of Tar Heels never looked so much like a typical North Carolina team as they did against the Blue Devils. From the get-go, Carolina played an organized, disciplined game on offense, and did a solid job defensively and covering the defensive backboard for most of the night.
A better ballhandling team would perhaps not have given up the three or four steals for lay-ups to Duke which made the biggest difference in this game (but then again a better ballhandling team probably wouldn't have been 8-19 and a 7 seed in the ACC Tournament). There are probably only a couple of schools in the country this year (Maryland and maybe Kansas) that can legitimately aspire to flat out whip Duke over a 40 minute up-and-down game. For everyone else, the goal is to get into a situation where Duke has to hit their long 3s at crucial moments to put the game away (understanding that they are quite capable of making those shots).
Carolina pretty much achieved that goal, and for the Heels to be within 5 and have the ball so late in the game was a major accomplishment, even if the hoped-for fairy tale final 4 minutes did not unfold in Charlotte as it had for teams in Tallahassee and Charlottesville earlier this year.
Ironically, Carolina's throwback offense also solved for a night one of the season's worst problems: the difficulty of getting Kris Lang adequate space to work against a single defender in the paint. (Carlos Boozer's draft status probably went down a notch or two each time Lang drop-stepped him from the foul line for lay-ups.)
An even bigger contrast between Friday and much of the season is that Carolina simply looked like a smart basketball team. Individual decision-making, from every position on the court, as to shot and pass selection was often a struggle this year, and probably the single quality that most made this team hard to watch at times.
From an analytical point of view, those of us who have followed and tried to analyze Carolina basketball for a long time have had their job made easier by the fact that mistakes and flaws are easier to see in an isolated manner when the machine as a whole is running well (just as a typo in an otherwise pristine manuscript can jump out at a reader). Analyzing and trying to isolate the causes of total breakdowns is quite a bit more difficult. For that reason, I hesitate to take a strong view on the question of whether Carolina's woes in decision-making this year reflected mainly "talent" (a term too often left vague) and inexperience, or instead shortcomings in coaching.
It would be surprising, of course, if it were all one thing and not at all the other. Sportswriters and fans at times are prone to ignoring the notion of multiple causation of events. When things go bad, it is often the result of the contribution of a number of factors, operating both singly and in interaction with one another. The basic story of this 2002 team, in my judgment, is that based on skill and experience alone, this club had 8 or 9 losses (Duke, Maryland, Wake, Indiana, Kentucky, Connecticut) pretty much guaranteed on opening day, meaning that the Heels would need to win something like 16 of the 19 remaining "winnable" games to be in the hunt for an NCAA bid, 14 to ensure an NIT bid.
Dean Smith would have probably considered it one of his finest coaching jobs to take this team to a 16-12 record. Even so, those of us who worried starting last spring with Forte's departure that such a scenario might not come to pass and that this team might have difficulty duplicating the achievements of, say, the 1996 and 1999 teams, had something like a 14-14 scenario in mind. I don't know of any analyst anywhere, in fact, who predicted Carolina to have a losing season this year (even if the Heels were in retrospect vastly flattered to be in anyone's preseason top 20). And looking back at the losses, it's not hard to find at least 6 games that could or probably should have been won by the Heels, games in which Carolina got out-executed by teams of comparable or even weaker talent.
The troubling question, then, is not so much the first 12 or 14 Carolina losses, which were not a huge shock based on personnel, but how it ran all the way to 20. Certainly the injury to Jason Capel came at the worst possible time in January, ahead of an eminently winnable game at FSU and continuing to the home game against State in which, with Capel, the Heels should at least have been competitive for 40 minutes. Another critical moment was the home loss to Virginia, when the Heels were just 5-7 and it didn't seem unreasonable to think the team could put it together.
At root, however, the biggest factor in this season going so awry was simply getting off on a very wrong foot, the pressure that created, and the confidence it shattered in the Tar Heels (and inspired in its opponents). Say what you will about Hampton and Davidson, but they are both (barring an MEAC upset) going to the big dance, and they are both programs that are used to winning. Playing teams that are cohesive and know how to win, but at a lower tier of hoops than the ACC, is a great test for a Carolina team in most years, but this year that test was too hard to pass. Simply put, the Heels were not ready to play against outside opponents when the season started.
Whether they would have been more ready with another two weeks of practice (this business of starting the season in mid-November is a little ridiculous anyway) is an unanswerable question. But it was a shock for Carolina fans, so used to seeing Carolina being more prepared than opponents in the earlier stages (a key element in the success recipe of the '96 and '99 seasons), to see the lack of identity present in those very early games. Given that Carolina again next year will be relying so heavily on freshmen, one would think that re-evaluating what happened in preseason practice this year, and how it might have been more effective, must be high on Matt Doherty's agenda going into the off-season.
To be sure, Doherty's subsequent tactics and personnel decisions can also be critiqued--personally, I would have liked to see the two Brians, Bersticker and Morrison, have bigger roles. Playing Bersticker alongside Lang for at least a few minutes each game might have helped the offense significantly by creating a little more space for Lang, and I was surprised that this was not at least tried in a substantial way.
Morrison is a hard case, and one can understand the rationale for the short-leash approach Doherty seemed to use with his talented sophomore most of the year. On the other hand, for no Carolina player was the gap between potential and achievement greater than for Morrison, and one wonders what would have happened if Doherty had gone the other way and just put Morrison out there for 30 minutes for three or four straight games to see what would happen. Yes, Morrison was and in the future likely will be likely to commit a bunch of turnovers, but that has to be weighed against his creative ability, especially on a team like this year where creativity was in short supply.
At the end of the day, however, to speculate on what might have happened had Doherty played the cards in his deck in a different fashion is, at best, guesswork. What is certain is that this team was behind where it needed to be, and where most people would have reasonably expected it to be, at the start of the season when the tone was set. No Carolina team needed more badly to have a good start than this one, and it didn't happen. Making sure that scenario doesn't repeat itself next fall will surely be a central preoccupation for Doherty over this unusually long offseason.
Can any good come out of an 8-20 season? That's not a question Carolina fans have ever had to ask themselves. In important senses, I think, the answer is both no and yes.
From Matt Doherty's point of view, and from the point of view of those who want him to succeed as a head coach, the primary answer is, no, 8-20 doesn't help much. Doherty is going to face heightened scrutiny next season, and if Carolina is again 0-2 or 0-3 out of the gate next fall, his dream job really could turn into a Carolina blue nightmare, even more so than this year.
Realistically, what we are looking at is a two-year project to get Carolina back in the top 10-15. I don't want to set an upper limit on what next year's team might accomplish, and I absolutely do not think that the bar for success should be set lower than an NCAA bid. But betting on rookies is always at least a slightly risky business, no matter how talented. Even if one is 100% confident that the individuals coming in are extremely talented and capable, no one knows yet how they will interact with one another or with the returning players.
For next season, probably the biggest single factor is the degree to which Raymond Felton, Rashad McCants, and Sean May, in particular, are able to make reasonably intelligent basketball-smart decisions from the get-go, and to resist the temptation to try to do too much themselves. If all three exhibit a good understanding of the game early on, and Jawad Williams and Jackie Manuel come back stronger and wiser, and Boone and Scott continue their progress, Carolina might be a pretty good team (though limited, unless there are unexpected contributions at an early stage from a Damion Grant or Byron Sanders).
Certainly, there's no guarantee that will happen next year. But if this group of players can stay together, by 2004 Carolina really should be back among the national elite. It's neither premature, alarmist, nor news to anyone to observe that Matt Doherty's job security almost certainly depends on that happening. The fact that it must be said in such stark terms right now, unfortunately, owes something to the fact of being 8-20 this year. Even a 14-14 or 15-13 year that culminated in a NIT bid this season could have gone down in the books as at least a partial success on Doherty's resume. I would much prefer that Carolina–and Doherty–were in that hypothetical situation at the moment.
But I think there is some good that has come out of this season–good that could in fact help Doherty over the long run. For one thing, Carolina fans have been a huge plus this season. In sifting through the 600-plus surveys collected for "More Than a Game," it became pretty clear to me that the culture of the Internet message board and the spectacle of anonymous fans bashing players and coaches, which lazy journalists have too often gotten in the habit of using as a barometer of fan opinions, was in fact not representative of most Carolina fans or the attitude they have towards coaches or players.
Well, this season proved that point in a much more visible way: fans still went to the Smith Center, they cheered hard, they got restless once or twice but didn't boo, and even (from what I could tell on my visits this year) seemed to have a reasonably good time. Yes, 4-5,000 or so seats went unfilled for most of the games, but to be honest, if those ticket holders didn't feel capable of coming to the game and supporting this team wholeheartedly, it was best for all concerned that they stayed away. Similarly, the fans who filled MJ's "23" for Doherty's radio show week after week also deserve a huge amount of credit in helping the coach keep his head up.
Like any school, Carolina has some fairweather fans, but it also has many, many fans with pretty amazing loyalty, and those who support the Tar Heels (and I think "supporter" actually is a better word than "fan") have handled (at least publicly) 8-20 as well or better than I or most would have thought possible. Maybe, just maybe, this experience of losing will make us all better fans too: more appreciative of future success (and less upset at, say, our next loss in the Sweet 16); a little less haughty and vainglorious toward other schools' fans; and perhaps even more aware that for most of us, attachment to UNC basketball runs deeper than the wins and losses, and that a little (or even a lot) of losing isn't going to weaken our affection for the Carolina blue uniforms.
Personally, there were one or two games this year I dreaded seeing and watched mostly out of a sense of duty, but I was actually as excited about most of the games this year as any other. Indeed, perhaps sensing that a good performance might be on offer from the Heels, I felt the same butterflies before the Duke game that one would usually associate with a Sweet 16 game. I suspect many other fans had similar experiences. Whether that sense of excitement would eventually deaden if Carolina began losing year in and year out is a question I hope is never answered, but I think there is some good in having on the record a resounding "yes" to the question of whether most Carolina basketball fans, by and large, can handle the occasional abject failure.
Another good moment that came out of this season was the show of support from the former lettermen before the Florida State home game. That was an important gesture: this year's players really did need to hear that yes, they are still part of the Carolina basketball tradition, and no, no one whose opinion you should care about is ashamed of you. But equally important was, by all accounts, the graceful manner in which Matt Doherty handled the occasion and accepted the show of support. If Doherty is going to get it done in Chapel Hill, it's not going to be a result solely of his own actions: it's going to depend a great deal on the contributions and support of many other people. Doherty should not think twice about eliciting help wherever he can find it, and in fact should be actively cultivating the message that "we, the Carolina family, all pulling together, are going to get this turned around." (The "we" pronoun is important here.)
It is not a secret at this point that the off-the-court transition in the basketball office has not gone as smoothly as one would have hoped, and critical quotes about Doherty and the changes he has ringed in have popped up in the media from former players. Looking from the outside, this looks to me like a structural problem: a new coaching staff with a mostly new office staff is not going to be able to maintain the same type of family atmosphere to which the 200-plus former players are accustomed without some deliberate effort and investment. The Athletic Department would be wise to make such a deliberate investment, such as creating a position for a liaison between the basketball office and the former lettermen. The "family" atmosphere is a unique and even indispensable part of Carolina basketball, and maintaining as positive a relationship as possible between Doherty and the former players is critical to the head coach's long term prospects. (At the same time, as Doherty has surely already learned, you can't hope or expect to please everyone.)
It's been said before and will surely be said again: Matt Doherty has a hard job. Not only are the on the court standards at Chapel Hill very high, the Carolina job is probably, by nature of the program and legacy that Dean Smith and Bill Guthridge established, the one job in the country where the off-the-court character of the program, the way that players and people are treated, is also of fundamental importance. Doherty has to pay attention to both aspects of the job, and that's not an easy task.
The area of his job that most overlaps both goals, and the area of the job that in the end will probably be decisive, is the quality of the relationships Doherty and his staff forge with his basketball players, on and off the court. The fact that this year's 2002 team never resorted to blame-casting, avoided internal dissension, and supported one another is a remarkable accomplishment. Usually we think that losing breeds all kinds of problems, but that appears not to have been the case in this situation. The players get a lot of credit for that, but so too do the coaches.
Matt Doherty has never been rooted in one place over a period of years as head coach, so it's particularly foolish to judge how well he will be able to relate to his players and build deep relationships of trust based on what supposedly happened at Notre Dame, or what supposedly happened with Joseph Forte, or whatever. What matters now is the question of how he handles this group of players and the ones coming in, how they respond, and how that interaction deepens over time.
As with so much else, the answer to that question is uncertain. No one can honestly say at this moment, I don't think, that it is guaranteed that the Doherty regime is going to be as successful and as long as everyone hoped; but it was not guaranteed that Dean Smith would get it right (on all levels) in 1964 or 1965 either. I don't think it's smart to bet against him, however. Carolina getting it turned around in the next couple of years and Doherty getting a great deal of the credit is still the most likely scenario for the short-term future.
But if that happens, and if Doherty successfully navigates the difficult waters of the present into a stable and successful future, the credit won't be his alone: More than a footnote of credit will have to be given in future annals to the players who didn't quit playing, and the fans who didn't quit cheering, during this difficult, unique, but in its own way rewarding 2002 season.

|My dissertation investigates the phenomenon of the photobook in interwar Germany and reconstructs the reasons for its popularity through reference to illustrated newspapers, exhibitions, and bookmaking experiments. Examining a series of photobooks and writings on photography from 1924 to 1937, I argue that the photobook appears against a historical horizon where political warnings of the manipulability of photography proliferate. The photobook arises as a training device that slows down perception, imposes a critical distance, and develops new forms of visual engagement. In the dissertation's opening chapter, I propose that the photobook in the 1920s contains a theory of photography and a training manual to learn to read photography. The chapter focuses on the elements of the photobook, and on notions of reading it, using Kracauer's essay "Die Photographie" (1927) as an interpretative horizon. The analysis of Aenne Biermann's 60 Fotos (1930) allows me to argue for the alphabetization for photography through the photobook. Chapter two contextualizes the concept of alphabetization in children's books, perception primers, and the form of the atlas. This chapter brings Benjamin's notion of reading to bear upon interpretations of Blossfeldt's photobook Urformen der Kunst (1928) and a photographically illustrated picture book from around the same time (1930). The space between the images is explored as crucial part also in Warburg's Mnemosyne-Atlas (1924-1929). Closely examining the concept of the atlas in terms of notions of objectivity, knowledge production, and a visual training, this chapter traces the question of standpoint and orientation of the beholder towards photography. Chapter three further explores this question and examines notions of landscape photography in relation to abstraction in a photobook entitled Das Watt (German for "mudflats") from 1937. The photobook in this chapter is viewed in its capacity to disrupt contemporary political, cultural, and aesthetic discourse at the time of publication. Das Watt brings together landscape and abstraction, and critically re-examines, re-negotiates and potentially destabilizes key concepts in Nazi propaganda at the time (Boden, Landschaft and Kunst). My project argues that the photobook—with its page layouts, spaces in between the individual photographs, and photographic sequences—demands an active reading process that in turn has an effect on the beholder. Thus a mobilization is achieved in the act of perception.

Stuff is reporting that a supposedly destroyed batch of marron (Cherax tenuimanus) at a fish farm in Warkworth, New Zealand may not have been 100% eradicated. The farm was closed down over a decade ago after the Department of Conservation noted the potential of the Aussie crayfish to escape into native waters. Now people are finding marron in the West Auckland area, and officials are thinking the crayfish somehow got out before the farm was closed down. Local kiwis may want to read this press release as well - it includes a phone number to call if you spot any marrons in your path. Both stories also mention the recent discovery of the gudgeon fish (Gobio gobio) in the same area.
some old dude went around letting marron go into ponds ,

INDIANAPOLIS -- Peyton Manning had a portion of a bulging disc removed from his neck during surgery in Chicago on Monday, but the Indianapolis Colts star is expected to recover fast enough to be ready for preseason -- assuming there is one.
"He's doing well," Colts owner Jim Irsay said Tuesday, during a break at NFL meetings. "Some pain developed. The MRIs just showed there was a disc bulging against the nerve. They removed that."
Irsay expects that Manning's recovery will take six-to-eight weeks. The condition developed as Manning, 35, worked out, and pain progressively increased. Irsay maintains that the injury was unrelated to an injury that led to Manning's surgery last year to remove a disc in a different part of his neck.
Although the lockout has prevented Manning from getting treatment from Colts trainers and doctors, conditions for the lockout allow teams to have contact with third-party doctors that are treating players. That allowed Irsay to stay abreast of Manning's situation.
Terming the surgery as a "very non-evasive procedure," Irsay insists that he isn't worried that the injury will become a long-term concern.
"I guess no operation is a minor one, unless it's on you or your franchise quarterback," Irsay said. "But it went well. It's one that you can bounce back from pretty quickly."

Este 1 quarto 1 casa de banho condomínio está localizado a poucos passos para a melhor localização na mundialmente famosa Praia de Hollywood & Calçadão. Há uma grande piscina aquecida e um pátio com construído em grades para o seu prazer de jantar ao ar livre. O estacionamento est�� incluído para um carro, e há estacionamento adicional em frente ao The Garage Hollywood Beach.
O condomínio fica em um edifício baixo no primeiro andar. O quarto tem uma cama king-size e na sala de estar há dois futons. TV de tela plana na sala de estar e quarto. Totalmente remodelado condomínio com nova cozinha e os novos aparelhos. Grande caminhada no chuveiro. Este condomínio tem um ambiente acolhedor e convidativo. Muito tranquilo. Você realmente vai ter tudo e estar na praia! Mais perto de Restaurantes e Bar, Oceano Pub One, fica ao lado direito em Hollywood Beach Resort.
This 1 BR unit was spacious and excellent location right on Hollywood Beach. Owners were responsive. But the main bed was just terrible (lumpy) and the AC was not acceptable for south Florida. The building walkup area smelled awful. For the right price the unit was tolerable but could have been amazing with better bed and AC.
Steps from the beach. The apartment was clean, beautiful and had all the amenities you would need for a GREAT vacation. Hollywood Beach is a fun, clean and friendly beach. The rental agency made it very easy to take occupancy. We took our granddaughter for her 16th Birthday and she was in heaven and so were we. We will be back next year for sure.
Great clean, cozy, updated condo just a few steps from the beach and Broadwalk. The building is older but this lends to the old Florida charm of Hollywood. Walking distance to many great restaurants and shops. Try Taco Beach Shack or Taverns Opa; both were excellent. The beach is very clean and less crowded than in Ft. Lauderdale. The only thing missing is a private patio or balcony but the heated pool area was a sparkling clean and inviting alternative to the ocean.
We would definitely stay here again.
Looking forward to trying out other ValGal properties soon. They were professional and kept us informed throughout the rental process. A welcome change from some of the other companies with which I've dealt.
This was on the lowest floor, which made access easy. The rooms were nice, the decor was modern and colorful, and I felt right at home with the bookshlves and TV,.
The best part was the easy access to the ocean and the Broadwalk in Hollywood. The beach is beautiful! When I came back the next morning, the beach had been groomed overnight.
It was clean and the bed was crisp and cool. The kitchen is small, but adequate for the purpose. The restaurants in the area were terrific. Washers and dryers in the building came in handy for washing and drying the beach towels. It turned out to be a real plus to have a parking space st the building, because most of the parking spaces on the street are taken early and throughout the day.
Very clean and comfortable. Modern and everything in good working condition. Location fantastic for beach, restaurants and farmers market on Sat. I would surely recommend this condo. Thank you very much. A treasure!
0 stars! This place is DISGUSTING! It had dirty rags, underwear lining, dirty paper towels, COCKROACHES! looks nothing like the pictures! But most of all just disgusting! The smell was horrible!! We were ignored the WHOLE STAY and still being ignored about all issues! Never offered to come clean it upon arrival when it was uncleaned! Never did anything about the cockroaches! Wouldn't return my emails or calls! Pictures were sent immediately and completely ignored! Was forced to stay in filth and live with cockroaches with my 4 year old son! I asked for a refund as soon as we walked in, they said no way!! Only time they responded to anything!!!! There was no reason to not give a refund, we had booked that day! They made me pay in cash! Probably so I couldnt dispute with my credit card! Had to throw away my things in fear of bringing back cockroaches. I can not believe the present state of this place, and how I'm being completely ignored about it! I have 35 picture of the conditions I had to stay in and of the GIANT COCKROACHES! Horrible place, horrible customer service! Beware

Share your thoughts and ideas on what you think will happen in 3x05.
Well, 'Killer Within' was a VERY emotional episode. Rick's breakdown at the end will no doubt shape the way future episodes will play out. For example, when it comes to people like Tomas and Andrew, people who want to harm the group and place lives in jeopardy, Rick will either;
1. Not care.
2. Go batshit crazy and kill everyone.
I hope it's the latter. I think that the part in the promo when Rick holds Glenn against the wall happens when Rick goes to collect Lori's body. At the sight of his wife's body Rick will break down again. Glenn tries to console his friend by saying "We shouldn't be here." thus causing Rick to lash out. Another theory is that they hunt for the missing Carol and Glenn says the quote above causing Rick to lash out, possibly hinting that Rick will lash out at even the most minor of critisms. (I remember someone saying the idea of Rick seeing Lori's body and then lashing out at Glenn. I can't remember where I saw this, but if it was from a user on this website I am sorry for not giving credit)
Herschel informs the others that the baby needs formulae or she will die. Daryl immediately offers to go. Maggie offers to. In the promo, Daryl leaves the prison as someone closes the gate. But the person is outside. I can't tell who this person is, but I think Daryl will be joined by someone. In 'Killer Within', Merle asks the Governor if he can search Herschel's farm in search of Daryl. Now I think that Daryl will get close to Herschel's farm while Merle and a few Woodbury soldiers are searching the area. Daryl and the person will nearly get caught, but just manages to get away. He then eventually y finds the formulae and returns to the Prison.
Rick meanwhile, will be going mental over the death of Lori. Glenn, Axel and Oscar offer to go get T-Dog and Lori's bodies as well as find Carol. They go to leave, but Rick joins them. While killing the zombies Rick is much more brutal and doesn't give a shit when it comes to getting bit. They eventually find Carol locked in a cell and hold a funeral for T-Dog and Lori.
The Woodbury story will be Merle and Milton go looking for the farm, Milton displays his new padded suit. Andrea trusts the Governor more while Michonne does the opposite.
That's all I've got to say about 'Say the Word'. I'd like to hear your ideas and thoughts. My dream part of this episode would be that Daryl and the person who joins him finds Tyreese, Juile and Chris in the woods. But that won't probably happen.
Just saying that I have no idea what is going to happen next week and everything above could be wrong.
