Besifloxacin drops
Generic Name: besifloxacin (BE-si-FLOX-a-sin)
Brand Name: Besivance
Besifloxacin drops are used for:
Treating eye infections caused by certain bacteria.
Besifloxacin drops are a quinolone antibiotic. It works by killing sensitive bacteria by stopping the production of essential proteins needed by the bacteria to survive.
Do NOT use besifloxacin drops if:
- you are allergic to any ingredient in besifloxacin drops or any other fluoroquinolone antibiotic (eg, levofloxacin)
Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.
Before using besifloxacin drops:
Some medical conditions may interact with besifloxacin drops. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you:
- if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding
- if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine, herbal preparation, or dietary supplement
- if you have allergies to medicines, foods, or other substances
- if you wear contact lenses
Some MEDICINES MAY INTERACT with besifloxacin drops. Because little, if any, of besifloxacin drops are absorbed into the blood, the risk of it interacting with another medicine is low.
Ask your health care provider if besifloxacin drops may interact with other medicines that you take. Check with your health care provider before you start, stop, or change the dose of any medicine.
How to use besifloxacin drops:
Use besifloxacin drops as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.
- To use besifloxacin drops in the eye, first, wash your hands. Turn the closed bottle of medicine upside down and shake once before each use. Tilt your head back. Using your index finger, pull the lower eyelid away from the eye to form a pouch. Drop the medicine into the pouch and gently close your eyes. Immediately use your finger to apply pressure to the inside corner of the eye for 1 to 2 minutes. Do not blink. Remove excess medicine around your eye with a clean, dry tissue, being careful not to touch your eye. Wash your hands to remove any medicine that may be on them.
- To prevent germs from contaminating your medicine, do not touch the applicator tip to any surface, including the eye. Keep the container tightly closed.
- Do not wear contact lenses while you are using besifloxacin drops. Take care of your contact lenses as directed by the manufacturer. Check with your doctor before you use them.
- To clear up your infection completely, use besifloxacin drops for the full course of treatment. Keep using it even if you feel better in a few days.
- If you miss a dose of besifloxacin drops, use it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not use 2 doses at once.
Ask your health care provider any questions you may have about how to use besifloxacin drops.
Important safety information:
- Besifloxacin drops may cause blurred vision. Use besifloxacin drops with caution. Do not drive or perform other possibly unsafe tasks until you know how you react to it.
- Do not use leftover medicine for treating other infections or conditions without checking with your doctor.
- Be sure to use besifloxacin drops for the full course of treatment. If you do not, the medicine may not clear up your infection completely. The bacteria could also become less sensitive to this or other medicines. This could make the infection harder to treat in the future.
- Long-term or repeated use of besifloxacin drops may cause a second infection. Tell your doctor if signs of a second infection occur. Your medicine may need to be changed to treat this.
- Besifloxacin drops should be used with extreme caution in CHILDREN younger than 1 year old; safety and effectiveness in these children have not been confirmed.
- PREGNANCY and BREAST-FEEDING: If you become pregnant, contact your doctor. You will need to discuss the benefits and risks of using besifloxacin drops while you are pregnant. It is not known if this medicine is found in breast milk after topical use. If you are or will be breast-feeding while you use besifloxacin drops, check with your doctor. Discuss any possible risks to your baby.
Possible side effects of besifloxacin drops:
All medicines may cause side effects, but many people have no, or minor, side effects. Check with your doctor if any of these most COMMON side effects persist or become bothersome:
Seek medical attention right away if any of these SEVERE side effects occur:
Mild eye redness, irritation, itching, or pain.
Severe allergic reactions (rash; hives; itching; difficulty breathing; tightness in the chest; swelling of the mouth, face, lips, or tongue); new or worsening eye redness, irritation, itching, pain, or blurred vision.

Princeling's Summer Salad
Recipe by Peachy326
This is a pasta salad that my son, "the princeling", loves. It's pretty flexible, so the quantities aren't too specific. Basically, it's a pasta salad that uses sour cream rather than mayonaise as the binder. You can change up the kind of pasta or add almost anything your family likes to this and make it "yours". We have used cubes of Genoa Sausage rather than the tuna, but the princeling didn't like it as well... It makes a big bowl, leftovers hold well for a couple days; they tend to taste even better than the first time around. By the way, I didn't count the cooling time for the pasta in the prep time. You can cool it under running water or stick it overnight in the refrigerator.
Top Review by twissis
Made for Spring PAC 2013 - What I like most about pasta salads is they are flexible & easily allow for pers pref. What I liked most about this pasta salad is it is veggie-rich & uses sour cream vs mayo. Mayo is 80% fat (per internet sources). I used a 5% fat sour cream & did not feel at all deprived due to the goodness of the other salad ingredients (both flavor & texture). I did not have tri-color pasta, so I used a sml shell pasta & made the recipe exactly as written except for adding corn kernels left from another recipe. I think baby shrimp would also work well, but I would be liberal w/Old Bay Seasoning in that case. I am so glad I found Princelings recipe. Besides being downright good & satisfying as a main-meal w/just fruit, it is a sure-fire all-occasion crowd-pleaser for luncheon guests, pot-luck, picnics, patio parties, etc. Thx for sharing this recipe w/us.

So I have been tasked with having WSUS work over the Internet without a VPN. I have seen a couple of Microsoft documents on setting it up behind an ISA server, but nothing other than that. Anyone else done this? Any specific setup that needed to be done? Caveats, etc? I'm thinking if I get a certificate for it, set it all up for SSL, then make sure anonymous access is disabled to the WSUS server, then it should be fine. Any group policy settings that would need to be different?

Only thing I would suggest is you use WSUS to tell the clients what updates to install but leave the clients to get the updates from MS. I don't know how many clients your talking here or or the size of your internet line but you could find it gets swamped very quickly if you serve the updates from your WSUS server to the outside. This is easy enough to setup with different group policies and WSUS settings.
Nov 24, 2009 at 9:03 UTC
I do have it set up that way already - for me bandwidth is cheaper than storage :) And most of my clients are across site-to-site VPN links anyway, so uploading that from my central site would not be good...I just let them download it directly.
Nov 24, 2009 at 5:51 UTC
You talking about a setup like this?
Interesting... Never played with WSUS but like that idea... check with internal WSUS to see which updates to go and get... then use local bandwidth to download it... (More for a WAN linked company but nice features)

Christian artist and gamer. Crazy about ducks and the color purple.
Last week's episode ended with Kakeru getting a girlfriend and Naho starting to realize her own feelings. If you think this opening statement is quite straightforward, that's because our current episode is also the same way. Let's find out why!
【第4話】あらすじ公開!https://t.co/YLIqqMeOzR #orange_a pic.twitter.com/nfZqasluVP
— TVアニメ「orange」 (@AnimationOrange) July 22, 2016
We're first shown that the gang is visiting the house of Kakeru's grandmother. It's actually their second time to visit; the first one was during Kakeru's funeral 10 years ago. Given we know that they really felt guilt from his death, and adding the fact that the grandmother mentioned Kakeru talked about them a lot to her, the whole situation is terribly sad.
Then future Naho mentally apologizes to Kakeru for not being able to save him. She wanted to talk to him more, but she couldn't find the courage to. This made me wonder, why? Weren't they really good friends? I thought they seemed pretty close.
Of course, the answer lies in the present. You know how depressing it is when one of your friends is in a relationship with a person outside your group, and you no longer hang out with them much, if not at all? That's what happened to Naho and her friends. Since Kakeru started dating Ueda, they just decided to have fun without him, most likely just like before he joined their group. Meanwhile, Kakeru is out with his girlfriend, as expected.
At school in the morning, Naho ends up meeting Kakeru by the shoe rack, and he asks her why she didn't wake him up that morning like she always does. The answer is quite obvious: he has a girlfriend. Naho even tells him she didn't make him lunch that day. Kakeru finally gets it and thanks her for everything she's done until that point, even if it was tough.
Our girl, not wanting conflicts with others, didn't want it to end it on that note, so she was supposed to add something, but then Miss Girlfriend, Ueda, suddenly arrives and whisks Kakeru away, quite quickly if I might note. Seems suspicious, especially since the same thing happens at lunch when Suwa and Hagita invite Kakeru to buy bread; Ueda arrives in front of their classroom and takes her boyfriend away.
I actually quite like how they introduced Ueda's true character to us. Aside from estranging Kakeru from his friends, the girl even had the guts to call subtly insult Naho! I was wondering why Kakeru didn't defend her, but since he doesn't even tell others what he wants, he probably decided to just keep quiet. She also complained about how the town is boring and the people in it are different, because it turns out that she's from Tokyo like Kakeru.
This set-up sounds like bad news actually, because the letter mentions that in the future, after going out with Ueda, Naho stopped talking to Kakeru. I'm guessing it's not just her but the others as well since, in the present, he never hangs out with them anymore. So much for cheering him on his relationship. Naho also regrets not telling him "no" in person.
Aside from that warning, the letter says that Kakeru will call out to Naho during lunch the next day, but she ends up avoiding him. So, she's told to answer him, and actually talk to him often too. True enough, he calls her. But, just as she was deciding to talk to him, Ueda appears behind him. Naho retreats, afraid of angering her. I appreciate the anime addressing her fears in following the letter to the dot; it's quite understandable. It truly is easy to regret something when you look back on it in the future, albeit it's not a really good feeling. But when you're in that moment in the present, you're only able to do what you can because of your emotions, especially your fears. That's why, even if Naho has a weird letter from the future, it's still up to her own choices.
It ends up getting even more depressing and complicated after that: Naho indeed starts avoiding Kakeru, and he notices this, clearly making him sad. But on one particular day, before going home, Kakeru says "bye-bye" to her himself. The letter mentions that, on that day, he and his girlfriend got into a fight, and then bids Naho goodbye after school. The letter advises her to greet him back. Probably she thought of this as a chance so she mustered her courage and followed the letter, but, surprise surprise, Ueda appears and "accidentally" shoves Naho aside. She probably thought Kakeru will let it go, but he ends up getting angry, and even went to help Naho! This makes her angry as well, revealing that she really is jealous of other girls he talks to, especially Naho. Afterwards, she storms off. I would normally advise against getting on your girlfriend's bad side, but since Ueda is….not that great a person, it's probably for the best.
I thought that Naho would finally feel better and restore her relationship with Kakeru at that point, but even she ran off! She did end up being the reason for the huge fight with his girlfriend, so of course she felt guilty. Thank God for Suwa though! He stopped Naho from making such a big mistake and convinced her to talk to Kakeru properly. Suwa's the best guy!
Naho manages to catch up to Kakeru, tells him that making lunch for him wasn't tough at all, and apologizes for not talking to him. They have a heart to heart talk at the park, where Kakeru tells her that he's been thinking about breaking up with Ueda, not because of the fight earlier, but because Naho told him "no". Aside from that, he hated not being able to talk to her, and, he's actually more interested in someone else. Naho wonders who that person is, but…come on…it's kinda obvious.
本日24:00からTOKYO MX&AT-X、24:30からBS11、25:05からテレビ愛知にて、第4話が放送です。上田先輩とのことで翔と菜穂の友情にも少し変化が—―。ぜひご期待ください! #orange_a pic.twitter.com/lF0SUMK2ep
— TVアニメ「orange」 (@AnimationOrange) July 24, 2016
I'm very glad that this episode ended on a good note, and that it successfully managed to convey many different points. One of them is that the future is changing slowly because of Naho's small actions despite being unsure of herself. It goes to show that even the smallest choices we make have impact. The second one is when it showed different scenes at different points how the students were enjoying themselves in their "boring town", somehow to counter Ueda's opinion of it.
Art-wise, many drawings are still off. Don't even get me started on the length of Naho's hair on some scenes – you can't figure out just how long it really is because it keeps changing. I guess it's better than the previous two episodes though, but there's always room for improvement. Let's just hope it doesn't get worse.
The future will be changed in a way, but we still have no idea if these small changes will affect Kakeru's future. That's why we should tune in next week for the fifth episode, and let's all see together what other things the letter has to say!
テレビ愛知にてご覧頂いた皆さん、ありがとうございました!第4話は須和の優しさが溢れていた回でした。菜穂の背中を押してあげた須和、カッコ良すぎます。来週もぜひお楽しみに! #orange_a pic.twitter.com/VxjqhVazWy

One point that has been overlooked in the George Zimmerman case has been the fact that the incident took place in a gated community, where Trayvon Martin was not a resident. I've lived in gated communities before, which I'm sure many of you have, and in all those communities there are "No Trespassing" signs. Obviously, Mr. Martin was trespassing, and any member of the community has the right to ask him why his is there, especially the Neighborhood Watch.
But the part that gets me the most is that when George Zimmerman called for help (as alleged by a witness), no one came to his aid. "Don't worry, I'll call the police," doesn't cut it. Tell your wife to call the police and break up the altercation, or at very least, scream at the guy until he hears you. The police can take forever to respond, as I'm sure Mr. Zimmerman knows, and by that time he would be unconscious, and quite possibly dead.
That's the problem with losing consciousness during a fight--you are at the mercy of the other person. The truth is, most times people don't know when to stop fighting, and can put a person in the hospital, and at times, kill them. Zimmerman may have felt it was his last resort and shot the guy--not from far away like the press initially wanted us to believe, but up close. Did he do it to kill Mr. Martin? No, it was to make the pain go away, and a broken nose can feel like death.
In the end, I do not blame Mr. Zimmerman for taking the actions that he did, especially when the rest of Trayvon Martin's profile comes to light (beating up a bus driver, frequent drug use including traces of marijuana found in his system, a love of fighting which allegedly got him suspended from school, racist remarks, embracing the thug life style, possession of burglary tools, etc). Seriously, how many times have any of you gotten in a fight with a bus driver or a member of the neighborhood watch? Those aren't the actions of a productive member of society, and they will likely land you in jail.
It's a shame that people would rather cower in their houses and bury their heads in the sand when a fight breaks out in their neighborhood. This also reminds me of an incident at the Philadelphia McDonald's involving two black youths beating up a transvestite. When no one did anything (except film the altercation), an old lady stepped forward and tried to help the victim. Yes, an old lady was the only one with the balls to do what was right. Are our morals dying with our elder generations?
If someone would have stood up against the Trayvon Martin/George Zimmerman confrontation or at least voiced their displeasure, the beating would likely have stopped and no one would have been shot. But hindsight is 20/20, and ultimately both parties lost. Although I was not there, I can't imagine that a fight would have happened if Trayvon politely said that he was on his way to his father's house and to have a nice evening.
Is that really too much to ask? And if people want to act like thugs, why don't we stand up to their bullying?
Reclaim your communities, people, or it will be the end of your communities!

Wesley Crusher has an interesting character arc throughout the seven seasons that makes him very relatable, especially to young viewers. We enjoy watching him grow from being the annoyance intrusive child to Picard on the Enterprise D bridge to entering Starfleet Academy and culminating in his disillusionment of Starfleet life and taking off with the Traveller. We discuss favorite Wesley moments that highlight his time on The Next Generation.
Some Star Trek fans do not believe that Nemesis was an appropriate farewell to the crew of the Enterprise E. But what would that movie be like and could it live up what the fans desire? Each host will share their ideas on what they would want to see in a final movie - from plot lines to character stories.
Games of strategy play an important role in teaching and learning with Starfleet. In "Peak Performance," we see a simple game of Strategema played for ego to a simulated combat exercise to prepare for the Borg threat. Loss is a part of games and how you analyze failure is very telling of your character.
Season 4 Unsung Episodes.Every fan has their favorite episodes, but what about the ones that get overlooked and disregarded? Each host brings their list of neglected season four episodes and makes their case why their choices should be included as a fan favorite.
Is it possible to follow the council given to not trust anyone? Isn't this the exact type of phrase given to breed mistrust? Friendship is built on trust and how can you take risks for your friends if you don't trust them? Picard takes a very calculated move to trust his crew and find evidence of this conspiracy within Starfleet Command. But his decisions nearly get his crew under the control of the alien invaders.
The Salem witch hunts and McCarthy Communist hearings are suspicious times in the 17th and 20th centuries, respectively. But can suspicion raise its ugly head in the 24th century? Captain Picard must deal with it first hand with Admiral Satie in "The Drumhead".
Ensign Ro. Up until season 5, there has not been much contention among the crew of the Enterprise-D, as per Roddenberry's directive. However, Ensign Ro Laren's character is designed to add conflict to the crew. We look at the span of episodes Ro Laren appears in and discuss her contributions to The Next Generation.
Parallels. What choices have you made that change the course of your life? Worf lives this question in the episode "Parallels" as he continues to quantum flux between several alternate universes. Through identifying his RNA, he is returned to his "correct" universe.
Movie Trailer Reviews. Thankfully, The Next Generation has four movies along with its seven seasons on television. With each movies comes the anticipation of seeing the best writing, acting, and special effects for our beloved crew. The movie trailers whet our appetite and renew our desire to see the movies again.
Spock's Brain vs Shades of Grey. The idea of worst episode is subjective, yet most would agree that "Spock's Brain" and "Shades of Grey" are some of Trek's worst episodes within The Original Series and The Next Generation, respectively. With the help of Ken Tripp from Standard Orbit, your hosts of Earl Grey discuss the plot lines, the writing staff, and extenuating circumstances around the release of these two episodes.

Maximal oxygen uptake, muscle strength and walking speed in 85-year-old women: Effects of increased physical activity

This study explores the effect of regular training on blood pressure, maximal oxygen uptake, maximal isometric muscle strength, and walking speed in the very old. A total of 55 community-dwelling women, 85-year-old, were enrolled in a training group (N=22) or a control group (N=33). These groups were reduced to 19 and 26 subjects, respectively, after the training period. Training was performed once a week over eight months, and consisted of various exercises with particular attention to movements important for everyday activities. Training reduced diastolic blood pressure (p<0.05), and showed a similar trend for systolic blood pressure. Measurements of maximal oxygen uptake before the start of the training (15 mL min-1 kg-1) revealed a level close to the presumed limit for independent living (13 mL min-1 kg-1). Training improved VO2 max by 18% (p<0.05), whereas the control group experienced a trend towards a reduction. Maximal isometric muscle strength of both the right and left leg showed a tendency to increase with training, but no significant changes were evident in the trunk flexor and extensor muscles. The training group showed a significant increase of 17% in maximal walking speed after the training period. However, one year later, without training, this improvement was reduced to 8% (p<0.05). No major changes were observed in the control group for any of these parameters. This study demonstrates a maximal oxygen capacity in very old community-dwelling women close to a threshold level indicating dependency. Furthermore, 8 months of regular training appears to lower blood pressure, and to increase maximal oxygen uptake and maximal walking speed. This suggests that physical reactivation of the very old may reduce the risk for acquiring age-related diseases associated with an elevated blood pressure, and may improve parameters crucial for independence.

A: Well, we gained an hour. I was back at my house by a little after one and we didn't come in this morning until 10. I got six hours so I'll be fine. The kids will be fine.
Q: You were able to hold FIU to less than two yards per carry on 43 carries. What were some of the keys to that?
A: Well, they were 1.7. The key to it was really the nine sacks. But, you flip it over, the quarterback accounted for their longest run. The quarterback scrambles up the middle. As far as the tailbacks handing the ball off, we pretty much shut that down. They had one, I think, for 12, but no runs over 15.
Our key is to understand gap integrity—what gap do they have? John Wiley, at halftime, told me at halftime told me that we probably have to make different calls to help a little bit. We put in what we call Cowboy and even Cover 1, which really helped our kids stop the power play.
Duane Price did a great job in the press box telling us how they were blocking. The adjustments at halftime really helped. Those guys do a great job for me. Sometimes I don't see as much as I should because I'm thinking of the next call. They're all working together.
Q: What are the kinds of things you do in practice to prepare to have your defense on the field for 40 minutes a game?
A: Well, Jeff [Connors] does that. They're in great shape. I'm going to go back and look because we're giving up, on average, five points in the fourth quarter. I hate to have to count the 14 we gave up to Southern Miss because the twos were out there, but they're playing great fourth quarter defense.
Q: What are you focusing on against Tulsa to make sure they don't control the clock like Tulsa did?
A: Well, we've got to get off the field on third down. That's how you get off the field. We were very good on third down. We were 65 percent. But, if you don't play well on first down, then it's third-and-short. Short's hard to stop. We still have to play better on first down—stop the run and affect the quarterback when he's throwing. That's how you do it.
Q: Tulsa likes to throw the ball a lot and they distribute the ball evenly to a lot of players. How are you going to stop that?
A: We're just going to do our package. We looked at the third down stuff they do today and we worked on their favorite third down routes tonight. Our kids did a good job [Sunday] night and will continue to. We do third down defense every day. We do it first on Sunday night. We'll do it again Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. We really spend a lot of time on third down.
Q: What else are you looking for in Tulsa's offense?
A: When they get short yardage, they do the same things we saw last week against FIU. They get into two backs, they run the power and the lead out of two backs, two tight ends. We'll have to spend some time on third-and-one and third-and-two.

I have a client using an Exchange server and Outlook 2003. When they open a new mail message and click the To button to see the address book it defaults as the GAL being the first shown. Is there a way to have their own Contacts list shown first (default?) when accessing the address book on a mail message?
Any thoughts?

In Outlook:
Tools, Address Book, then click Tools, Options and you can select which one to show first.

Approximately 300 anti-choice protesters gathered at Province House Sunday to protest abortion and to demand the Ghiz government stop funding what they call medically unnecessary abortions in off Island facilities.

Premier says he's balancing many views on controversial issue
P.E.I. Premier Wade MacLauchlan is defending his decision to keep Prince Edward Island the only province in Canada where women do not have access to in-province abortion services.
During his year-end interview with The Guardian, MacLauchlan noted his government did make abortion services easier for Island women to access in Moncton – a move that came just weeks after his May election victory.
But when asked why the province still does not allow this health service to be performed in Prince Edward Island, MacLauchlan says it's a decision based on the divided views of Islanders.
"In the case of government, that's why one serves as premier or why people choose a government, it's your job to assess what the view is on things and to choose the timing for steps to be taken and that's what we've done," he said.
"I think we are consistent with what we said during the election and we're also following what Prince Edward Islanders feel about this, including that this is a very controversial issue."
P.E.I. women no longer have to seek two preliminary doctors' referrals, an ultrasound or blood work — all steps previously necessary to access provincially covered abortions in the only other Health P.E.I. approved hospital in Halifax.
But Island women do still need to travel out of the province at their own cost, including the $45.50 Confederation Bridge toll – which increases to $46 on Jan.1.
The issue of abortion access in P.E.I. has dominated headlines throughout 2015 due to advocacy and protests from groups on both sides of the issue.
Politicians running for election in the provincial and federal election faced questions about abortion regularly through the course of the two campaigns this year.
The issue was so prevalent in the headlines, it was a contender for The Guardian's news story of the year for 2015.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told The Guardian in September he was pleased to see the provincial government has made some moves to allow Island women better access to reproductive health services.
But he hinted the province might soon have to start offering abortions in the province.
"I recognize that Premier MacLauchlan has made positive steps in the right direction, but it's important that every Canadian across this country has access to a full range of health services, including full reproductive services, in every province in the country."
Advocates who have been fighting to make this service available in Prince Edward Island say they will continue to push for full abortion access and after-care to be available in P.E.I.
A new group, Abortion Access Now P.E.I. Inc., has been officially incorporated with the province to champion this cause and provide assistance and support to Island women.
"There are still some barriers to women who want to get an abortion," said spokeswoman Ann Wheatley.
"Because it's off-Island they have to take a day off work, the cost of travel and child care really disadvantages women who are lower-income. We feel it's about time we made sure Island women have proper access."

There are a number of ways to look at short data, for example the total number of shares short; but one metric that we find particularly useful is the "days to cover" metric because it considers both the total shares short and the average daily volume of shares typically traded. The number of shares short is then compared to the average daily volume, in order to calculate the total number of trading days it would take to close out all of the open short positions if every share traded represented a short position being closed.
Clearly some retailers are going to have a better year next year, but I am not yet convinced that the group in general is on the rise.

You would not believe how hard it was for me to decide whether or not to vote yes or no..
While using calculators and phones may remove the need for memorization of phone numbers, and use of hand-written or mental math, technology has also helped us a lot.
Without technology, we would not have the knowledge about the world that we do now. How would we discover new, more economic/egonomic ways of life? Using technology in science has made many ways of life more logical.
Technology does not make us dumb at all I belive technology just makes us lazy because we relie on technology too Mutch and we use calculator instead of thinking in are head .And it makes it easy on us even though your brain needs to Do it because if you do math with a calculator your not. Learning anything. That Is why I belive technology dosn't make us dumb or smarter
Technology is not making us dumber at all in any way. We use technology to help us in any way we can to make are life easier. Yes people are lazy but that does not make them dumb. Look at it in the eyes of a teenager. Teens use there phones for everything taking notes, doing home work, looking up facts. But most of all there using it to help them remember stuff like when to get up, or take medication, or walk a dog. So before you say yes it does take a look at yourself and how much you use technology
Technology does not make us dumb, but it certainly makes us lazy. It makes us rely on technologies created by others, and so it discourages independent and critical thinking. It makes us, essentially, slaves to the smartphone and the tablet.
We probably appear dumber because of that, because our leaders can easily steal from us and determine the course of our lives and only a handful of people will stand up to them (only to be brought down easily). But the truth is that we've become lazy, lethargic and apathetic, if not really dumber.
On the contrary, it facilitates the access to it. If you look back at a time before technology and took the percentage of educated people versus today's percentage of educated people, you would notice that we are far more knowledgeable than before. This is due to how technology has made it easy for people to learn. Technology has also brought on globalization and are now much more exposed to the world. The media plays a big part in this. The media likes to show us the stupid people because it gets ratings and makes the viewer feel good about himself. It entices him/her to watch the news again. Therefore, technology has enabled us to become smarter. It is only the exposition of the uneducated people by the media that makes us believe our world has evolved into a generation of idiots.
Really, the human existence boils down to a small percent of smart people creating things for stupid people to frolic about on. Technology surely has made knowledge more accessible to the average person, but the average person wasn't going to try and find that out otherwise anyway. If anything, it is a tool for the few smart people to utilize, making them more experienced.
Never gonna give you up never gonna let you down never gonna run around or desert you. Never gonna make you cry never gonna say goodbye never gonna tell a lie or hurt you. Never gonna give (give you up) never gonna give (give you up) ocean man take me by the hand lead me to the land that you understand. Ocean man the voyage to the corner of the globe is a real trip
Technology does not make us dumb at all I belive technology just makes us lazy because we relie on technology too Mutch and we use calculator instead of thinking in are head .And it makes it easy on us even though your brain needs to Do it because if you do math with a calculator your not. Learning anything. That Is why I belive technology dosn't make us dumb or smarter
Yes technology is a useful thing and it can "rot our brain" as some people say. However if we were to use it for every day activities than it won't necessarily make us dumber. I mean think about it. We already know this stuff it's just technology makes it easier and all we want is something easier.
Overall, technology helps equip us with more knowledge than we actually realised. It has made learning much more efficient accessible for the majority. Think about it, in the past, when technology was not as advanced, people would have to go to libraries and get information or derive their answers from asking people. Presently, people would only need to google whatever questions they have and get a never ending list of answers and information. I'm not saying this makes us smarter but it has certainly allow us to gain more knowledge about things like world trends and even about other people's perspectives. We might not have gotten smarter because of these knowledge learnt but we definitely have not become dumber.

Description: Shenzhen is entertainingly compact with Guy Delisle's observations of life in urban southern China, sealed off from the rest of the country by electric fences and armed guards. With a dry wit and a clean line, Delisle makes the most of his time spent in Asia overseeing outsourced production for a French animation company. He brings to life the quick pace of Shenzhen's crowded streets.By translating his fish-out-of-water experiences into accessible graphic novels, Delisle skillfully notes the differences between Western and Eastern cultures, while also conveying his compassion for the simple freedoms that escape his colleagues in the Communist state.

text: In a letter to Dell on Thursday, Icahn indicated he's ready to start a proxy battle between Dell and many of its shareholders, who increasingly are in opposition to the $13.65 a share takeover offer. Icahn said his holding company, Icahn Enterprises, is willing to commit $2 billion to a bridge loan to finance the $9 a share special dividend he's recommending for Dell. The billionaire activist said he's willing to commit a further $3.25 billion in financing for the dividend. "Rather than engage in the Going Private Transaction, we propose that Dell announce that in the event that the Going Private Transaction is voted down by shareholders, Dell will immediately declare and pay a special dividend of $9 per share," wrote Icahn, in his letter. The dividend would be Dell's cash on hand, new financing arrangements or the use of accounts receivable from the company's financing arm. A special committee of independent directors set up to weigh the company's options defended a continued pursuit of a buyout in a statement on Wednesday. "The Special Committee unanimously determined that the sale of the Company would be the best alternative for stockholders," it said. "We negotiated aggressively to ensure that stockholders received the best possible value and agreed to a $13.65 per share transaction that provides value certainty at a 37% premium above the average price for the 90 days before rumors regarding the transaction surfaced." Dell shores rose 1.02% to $14.31 during Monday morning trading. -- Written by Antoine Gara in New York Follow @antoinegara

Following the successful passage of the Presidential $1 Coin Act in 2005, the U.S. Mint officially released the American Gold Buffalo bullion coin into circulation in 2006. Through nine consecutive release years, the American Gold Buffalo has maintained a position of prominence as an official gold bullion coin of the United States of America. This year, on the coin's 10th anniversary, its emblematic legacy continues with the release of the 2016 American Gold Buffalo.
Made out of one troy ounce of 99.99% pure gold with no alloys, the American Gold Buffalo's composition signifies a pivotal moment in the U.S. Mint's history. It was the first time that the U.S. Mint, established under Congress' Coinage Act of 1972, had ever struck a coin in 24-karat gold. The stringent purity standard and notable design of the American Gold Buffalo, as well as a legal tender face value of $50, contributes to the gold coin's sustained popularity in the numismatic world. Backed by the U.S. Mint, the U.S. government guarantees the purity, weight, and content of the American Gold Buffalo bullion coin.
Although commonly called the American buffalo, the animal featured on the gold coin's reverse is actually a bison. The misnomer is deeply embedded within American history: In as early as 1625, English writers used the term "buffalo" to describe the bison they encountered in America because they were unfamiliar with the new species and it closely resembled the water buffalo, a bovine that is native to Africa and Asia. "Oh, give me a home where the buffalo roam" is the first line in "Home on the Range," a song with widely debated origins that has maintained centuries of memorability in America as an anthem of life in the west during the late 1800s and early 1900s. Currently, in modern America, the famed "buffalo" name is associated with multiple U.S. cities, school mascots, product brands, musical bands, and even a sauce-covered fried chicken wing. Scientifically speaking, it is the American bison, not the buffalo, inhabiting the plains of North America. Societally speaking, it is acceptable, often preferable, to use the buffalo name when referencing the historic American mammal.
The American Gold Buffalo's obverse and reverse designs were originally featured on an American 5-cent coin, known as the "Buffalo Nickel." Renowned sculptor James Earle Fraser, who trained under the skilled Augustus Saint-Gaudens, is the artist behind the artwork that appeared on the Buffalo Nickel from 1913 to 1938. The captivating figures represented life before westward expansion in the U.S., and their permanent reappearance in the design of the American Gold Buffalo preserves the memory of a long-ago period in American history.
The mighty bison pictured on the coin's reverse was inspired by Black Diamond, an American bison who resided at a zoological park in New York. Fraser modeled his sculpted figure after this living bison, reportedly watching the animal for hours at a time in order to accurately capture its form. Fraser's attention to detail and exquisite craftsmanship is evident by the pronounced features and distinct curvature in the left-facing full body profile of the American bison. The open space surrounding the bison figure is engraved with two American mottos: "In God We Trust" and "E Pluribus Unum." "United States of America" proudly arches at the top of the reverse, and the specifications of the coin — "$50 1 Oz. .9999 Fine Gold" — are documented in the land underneath the bison's hooves.
To accurately depict a Native American man in the right-facing portrait on the coin's obverse, Fraser combined the features of three Native American tribe chiefs: Chief Iron Tail of the Lakota Sioux, Chief Two Moons of the Cheyenne, and Chief Big Tree of the Kiowa. "Liberty" is inscribed in the space across the top right of the coin, following the circular curvature of the coin's edge. Fraser's signature comes in the form of a small "F," located directly underneath the year of mintage engraved on the man's shoulder.

PERSONAL PLEASURE DEVICES: Someone put a GoPRO on the end of a vibrating pleasure device!
This is some ridiculousness, but someone somewhere felt that couples could find some stimulation and pleasure when you add a camera to the end of a vibrating personal love device.
And as such, this device now exists and can be purchased at certain adult-type toy stores.
"I do not believe I would choose this device, as it reminds me of receiving a medical procedure and whatnot," said American radio presenter TOBY KNAPP from his studio. "It makes me think a doctor is looking for an illness and such."

Britain's men may be facing a future in the wilderness of the Davis Cup's Europe Africa Zone Group Two, but the Lawn Tennis Association will be heartened by the progress of home players in the world rankings. In recent times there have been only four Britons in the game's top 100 lists, but five more joined them yesterday after their results last week.
If the best performance was that of Ken Skupski and Colin Fleming, who won their first ATP title in Metz to climb to No 76 and No 79 respectively in the doubles rankings, the achievements of Elena Baltacha and Katie O'Brien were just as admirable. The British women broke into the world's top 100 singles ranking list for the first time, Baltacha reaching No 93 and O'Brien No 98 after the former beat the latter in the final of the Aegon Pro-Series tournament in Shrewsbury.
Jamie Murray completed the British top 100 club, climbing back to No 97 in the doubles rankings after winning a Challenger tournament in Slovenia. The five latest arrivals join Andy Murray (No 3 in singles), Anne Keothavong (No 77 in singles), Ross Hutchins (No 43 in doubles) and Sarah Borwell (No 76 in doubles) in the game's top flight.
Nevertheless, the ongoing failure of the country's male singles players – with the notable exception of Andy Murray – to make a significant mark on the rankings remains an embarrassment. James Ward, the world No 187, is the only other British man in the top 200.
It is a different picture in doubles. Although Hutchins is having a mediocre run, with only three wins in his last 20 matches, 26-year-old Skupski and 25-year-old Fleming are gaining strength. They have been late developers, Skupski having spent four years at Louisiana State University and Fleming having studied economics and finance at Stirling University. Both graduated in 2007, though Fleming then spent the best part of a year working for Scottish Power before deciding to play tennis full-time.
Since joining forces 11 months ago, the pair have reached 13 finals at Challenger or Futures events, winning eight of them, although their most notable single victory came at the Aegon Championships at Queen's Club in June over the Bryan brothers, the world's top-ranked pair. Sunday's final at the Moselle Open in Metz, where they beat the highly rated Frenchmen Arnaud Clément and Michael Llodra, was their first at an ATP-level event.
Jamie Murray, Wimbledon mixed doubles champion in 2007 and world No 27 in doubles as recently as February, has had a difficult year. Having parted company with the hugely experienced Max Mirnyi, he did not last long with Dusan Vemic, his intended partner for this year, and his ranking quickly fell away.
After little success with a variety of partners, Murray has spent most of the summer playing Challenger events with his fellow Briton, Jamie Delgado. They have won tournaments in Italy and Slovenia, with Murray also joining forces with Jonathan Marray to win a title in the Netherlands.
New world order? Britons in the top 100

By William H. Sokolic, Cherry Hill (N.J.) Courier-Post
EGG HARBOR TOWNSHIP, N.J. For Jay and Debbie Goodelman, transplants from the New Jersey shore, direct flights to Las Vegas from Atlantic City International Airport were a godsend. The convenience of the airport couldn't be overstated.
But when they boarded the flight back to Las Vegas two weeks ago after celebrating the bat mitzvah of their daughter, Morgan, it marked the end of their good fortune. On Monday, Spirit Airlines will cancel its Atlantic City to Las Vegas run, citing the high cost of fuel for a route launched in May.
"We're very upset they're stopping the flights," said Jay Goodelman, who moved to Nevada more than two years ago to work for Wynn Las Vegas.
The cutback put a minor damper on what has turned out to be a successful year for commercial air service out of Atlantic City International. Passenger counts are up almost 24% through November, surpassing the 1 million mark. Some $60 million in expansions at the airport are underway.
"That's unprecedented growth," said Sharon Gordon, director of marketing and communications for the South Jersey Transportation Authority.
And the percentage of inbound passengers has been on the rise, with some 45% coming into Atlantic City.
"More passengers are coming from Florida cities. Spirit has been serving the market for so long that more people are aware of the opportunity to come to Atlantic City," said Laurie Brewer, SJTA spokeswoman.
With three megaresorts set to open beginning in 2010, adding some 10,000 rooms to the inventory in Atlantic City, officials expect barriers to expanded air service to dry up. The SJTA is in discussions with a number of carriers who say Atlantic City is on their radar — if fuel costs drop.
Cutbacks in long haul flights are a trend.
"Airlines are using aircraft for shorter hauls," Gordon said. "More frequent use of planes is more lucrative and profitable."
Two years ago Northwest canceled non-stop service between JFK and Tokyo because of fuel prices, said travel analyst Jared Blank of Online Travel Review. More recently Skybus announced an end to service to Bellingham, Wash., and cutbacks on flights to Burbank, Calif.
Spirit has cut back on all its Las Vegas flights, said Juan Arbelaez, a spokesman for Spirit Airlines, redirecting planes to shorter routes to Florida, Myrtle Beach, S.C., and the Caribbean.
"We're also cutting Guatemala to Los Angeles and San Francisco to Detroit," he said.
Still, planes don't have to wait to take off or park at a gate in Atlantic City. And the airport offers airlines a relief from capacity and diversion constraints at Philadelphia and Newark, Gordon said.
But is that enough?
"Airlines would bring more service to Atlantic City if the airport could provide profitable traffic, but that has not been the case for several reasons, not least of which is the proximity to Philadelphia," Blank said.
A shortage of additional aircraft and pilots are two other obstacles, Gordon said.
In the short term, the SJTA hopes to expand service from its existing carriers, Delta and Spirit. Delta flies to Atlanta, leading to connections throughout the world. Spirit flies to the Florida cities of Orlando, Tampa, Fort Lauderdale and Fort Myers and to Myrtle Beach. In the winter, flights to West Palm replace those to Detroit.
"With additional rooms in recent years, we are now at a point where the numbers are of interest to airlines," Gordon said.
"I could see Atlantic City being exactly the type of market that a carrier like Allegiant would enter, offering a couple of flights a week to Las Vegas and to Florida," Blank said.
But it's the long term on which the future rests.
Gordon is confident the three multi-billion dollar casino resorts — from Revel Entertainment, Pinnacle Entertainment and the MGM Grand Atlantic City — will bring the rooms, amenities and convention space to convince carriers the resort compares favorably with Las Vegas.
But to do so, casino operators and the SJTA need to sit at the table with carriers, said Kim Townsend, CEO of Pinnacle Atlantic City. "We have to understand what the airlines' needs are and then attack it in the most logical way," she said. She hopes to meet with potential airlines during the first few months of the year.
None of the three newcomers see air service as a must for their business plan. "It would be a plus, but we aren't counting on it. We are a drive-in market for the foreseeable future," said Kevin DeSanctis, CEO of Revel Entertainment.
But, Townsend said, Atlantic City will not become a destination resort with people coming by car.
DeSanctis would be willing to participate in discussions, even though customer demand in the coming few years might be too regional in nature to bring Chicagoans to Atlantic City over Las Vegas, for example.
MGM Mirage officials met with the SJTA at the end of October and came away encouraged by the enhancements and commitment to seek new routes to meet growing demand.
"Increased air service in the long term will be important to encourage visitation by higher-end customers," said Alan Feldman, senior vice president, public affairs for MGM Mirage.

I tend to hurt myself more than most whether minor or major injury. Today it was minor. Lost my balance on the board, the rail reached for the sky, and I took a shot from said rail into the ribs. I can only imagine that's what it feels like to get hit in the chest with a dead blow hammer. It hit me so hard my teeth hurt.

Martial Arts is the primary fighting method in the Murim World and focuses around the use of Inner Energy (Ki).
An individual can learn how to control the Ki through training in the ways of the Ki. The learning process of Ki-based martial arts includes three basic steps:
- Air Herding: The practitioner is training the energy and accumulates it in the Ki-Center. [1]
- Power Distribution: this step makes use of distribution and circulation techniques to distribute the accumulated ki within the body.[1]
- Bloom Through: the last step involves techniques that use the energy stored in the Ki-Center during the Air Herding step in order to enhance the bodies performance in terms of strength and speed, or to perform Ki strikes.[1]
During the learning process, after the first step, the practitioner begins more physical training in accordance to the Air Herding step. The training consists of four steps.
- The first step (based on the Air Herding and Power Distribution steps) of training focus on breathing exercises that help the person control the flow and circulation of the Ki in the body by training their control on their Ki-Center. The main idea is to gather the Ki to the Ki-Center and then distribute it evenly to the whole body. This step includes applying circulation and distribution techniques.
- As the circulation training proceeds the individual will have to start physical exercises in order to keep the Ki and the physical body in balance according to the Simgichehon.
- The third step involves exerting the Ki to enhance the body's functions and movements. The result is the use of martial arts, increase to a certain level the healing speed, become able to see in pure dark and so on.
After the individual reaches the third step then the three steps are still done simultaneously in a pre-organised training program. With this training a person can reach the level of Master.
- The fourth and final step of the training focus on surpassing the body's potential. It is also called the highest level of training. An individual widens his bloodstream which has as a result the further increase of the Ki amounts and the size of the Ki-center. The result is that the individual can reach, what is called as, the level of a "Real Master".[2]
The three first steps are essential in order for a practitioner to realize the existance of Ki within the body and start controlling it. However, use of Spirit Medicines can distort the order of training enabling an individual to use the Ki without realizing what it is or increases the Ki reserves of an individual to the point that it reaches the Rank of Real Master without the physical body to withstand it. In short this effects distort the balance of the Simgichehon resulting in possibly serious negative impacts on the individual or even death.
The Ki, after the third step of training, can be used to enhance the body's functions and movements. Thus results in the use of martial arts, the basic way of fighting in the Murim world. The effect on the body differs depending on how the Ki is circulated. Hence, the martial art techniques are formed.
Martial Arts have various uses. When it comes to fighting Ki can be used to enhance the abilities of the user or protect them. It can also enhance the movements of the user by enabling them to use foothold where would normally be impossible, like walls, ceiling and so on. The Ki can also be used for health and healing purposes. According to purpose of use, the techniques can be classified as:
- Offensive: When the user intends to attack
- Defensive: When it is used to defend, dodge or block any threats.
- Movement: When the technique enhances the movements capabilities of the user.
- Distribution: When it is used for healing purposes, Ki transference from one user to another, for training or any other use that involves distributing the Ki inside and outside of the users body.
Should be noted that some techniques could fit in more than one of the above classifications.
By circulating the Ki one can only enhance the body's function increasing the strength or speed thus creating movement based techniques like the Walking Techniques, or strength based techniques like the Strong Metal Hand and Iron Body Technique. However a person has also the ability to release Ki outside creating the Ki strikes. Ki strikes have the advantage of creating a force of Ki that passes through the target's body causing internal damage while it farther increases the strength of the user. A Ki strike is able to kill the target instantly if it hits correctly. According to the usage of Ki there are two types of techniques:
- Internal:If the technique focuses on increasing the body's function then the technique is Type-Internal technique.
- External: Ki strikes and any other technique that focuses on releasing and using the Ki outside of the users body then it is an Type-External technique.
The execution of the techniques varies depending on the way the Ki is used. There are two types of execution:
- Instantaneous: When the technique is used instantly or repeatedly.
- Continuous: When a single execution of the technique remains in effect for as long as the user wants or is capable of.
- Main article: Ranks (Martial Arts)
Based on the level of mastery of the Ki and use in martial arts the martial artists are categorized in several ranks that are used to describe their level as martial artists. The martial arts ranks that are mentioned until now are:
- Beginner/Amateur
- Practitioner (assumed: the rank between Beginner and Expert)
- Expert
- Master
- Advanced Master (hinted: the rank between Master and Real Master)
- Real Master
- Beyond... (hinted: the rank of a human that has surpassed the human limits)
- The Classification, Type and Execution categories correspond to the Template:Infobox technique used in the articles about techniques. References about these categories exist throughout the series. However, the titles of these three categories are not clearly stated and are used for convenience since actual details on categorization of techniques have not been provided so far.
