Just talking about a colonoscopy makes most people cringe. That's probably because the idea of having a tube inserted into your rectum and colon is disturbing.
But even more disturbing for many people is the thought of getting colorectal cancer.
Colorectal cancer
is the third most diagnosed cancer in the US, but second deadliest cancer in the US. It is the third deadliest cancer worldwide. But when diagnosed at an early stage, before the cancer has invaded the colon wall or spread to distant sites, the chances of survival are much higher.
Still, by definition, all screening tests are performed on people who feel fine except for the anxiety they have about their future health. And while some screening tests clearly decrease the risk of dying, that is certainly not true of all of them.
What about colorectal screening? Is the unpleasant prospect of having a colonoscopy or some other equally disagreeable procedure really worth it? For many of us, the answer is "yes".
All colorectal screening tests are designed to detect, either directly or indirectly, fingerlike projections of tissue, called
polyps. Polyps may be cancerous or precancerous. Although most polyps are not cancerous, the vast majority of colorectal cancers are believed to begin as polyps. Fortunately, not all the screening tests for colorectal cancer are invasive.
Here's what's involved with each test:
fecal occult blood test
a test for hidden blood in a sample of stool (feces) you have already passed. Blood in your feces may be the result of bleeding from a cancerous polyp in your colon or rectum, or it may be a sign of a more benign condition.
This is a newer non-invasive method of testing an entire specimen of stool (feces) for altered DNA which is shed by colon cancer or polyps into the stool. It is more expensive than fecal Occult Blood Testing. The sensitivity for detecting cancer with this test is variable. One limitation is that this test does not detect all types of colon cancer.
For a
flexible sigmoidoscopy, a thin, lighted tube is inserted into the rectum and lower colon to examine their internal mucosal lining. Images can be recorded on a video tape while the doctor looks for polyps and other abnormalities through an eyepiece.
For a
a thin, lighted tube similar to a flexible sigmoidoscope, only much lighter, is used. This time, the lighted tube goes all the way through to the end of your colon where it connects to the small intestine. Polyps that are detected can be removed during the same procedure.
A digital rectal exam involves the insertion of a lubricated, gloved finger into the rectum to check for lumps, polyps, or other abnormalities inside of the rectum.
double-contrast barium enema
involves the
injection of a fluid called barium followed by air into your rectum. This makes your entire colon visible on an x-ray, allowing doctors to see abnormal growths, like polyps.
Computed tomography colography ("virtual colonoscopy") is a new technique that takes computer generated x-ray images after injection of air into the colon. This approach may not be quite "ready for prime time," but it's getting close. It can detect some lesions that colonosocopy cannot, but misses others. It has a major advantage over colonoscopy in that it is less expensive and safer; however, if a polyp is discovered during colonoscopy it can be removed right then and there, while if one is detected with virtual colonoscopy, a follow up real colonoscopy will be necessary.
The American Cancer Society suggests that starting at age 50, men and women should be screened for colorectal cancer with one of the following options:
However, people at increased risk of colorectal cancer may need to have some of these tests earlier in life and more often. You're considered to be at increased risk if you have any of the following:
Colonoscopy can undoubtedly detect and remove precancerous polyps throughout the colon and rectum. And since some people who have no polyps in the rectum and lower colon (where sigmoidoscopy reaches) turn out to have them farther up, colonoscopy is more likely to find polyps and tumors than any of the other tests.
But here's the controversy. Some of these tests have been shown to help prevent deaths from colorectal cancer and others have not. And they may not be the ones you'd expect.
Digital rectal exam is a simple test, but not very effective at detecting polyps. Although barium enema is effective at detecting larger polyps throughout the colon, studies have shown that it is a less effective screening tool than colonoscopy. There is evidence that annual or biennial fecal occult blood tests in people aged 50 to 80 decreases the risk of dying from colorectal cancer. However, since many other problems produce blood in the colon, a lot of people end up having false positive results. Having the test every two years instead of annually can reduce this risk.
The US Preventive Services Task Force recently determined that regular sigmoidoscopy alone or in combination with FOBT reduces colorectal mortality. There is insufficient evidence, however, to know exactly how often people should undergo sigmoidoscopy, although many authorities say every five years is probably reasonable.
As for colonoscopy, there is currently no evidence that screening everyone irrespective of their risk would save lives. Although colonoscopy is considered generally safe, it is more risky than any other colorectal screening test and far more expensive. On the other hand, one-half of people who have polyps or tumors in the upper part of the colon, where only a colonoscopy reaches, have no polyps or tumors in the lower colon, where the sigmoidoscopy reaches. This means that many patients who only undergo sigmoidoscopy will have polyps missed. It is here that virtual colonoscopy makes a contribution; however, it may miss certain small polyps, and is less accurate when done in some centers than in others.
While it now seems clear that screening for colorectal cancer after age 50 in average risk individuals is better than not screening at all, the best combination of screening tests and their frequency has yet to be determined. So, how do you know what screening tests you need and when?
For starters, you ought to at least have the yearly fecal occult blood test starting at age 50, and you should probably consider having a sigmoidoscopy at least every five years, since most of the evidence indicates that these tests save lives. Talk to your doctor about the advantages and disadvantages of a full colonoscopy, especially if your risk for colorectal cancer is greater than average. Also consider a virtual colonoscopy. These tests may save your life.

Ronald Reagan, Manny Pacquiao Among Notable Athletes to Sweat Out Election Day as Politicians (Photos)
Athletes often miss the competitve nature of their jobs once they wrap up their playing days, so it's only natural that many turn their attention to politics when they're done competing on the field. On Election Day, as noted basketball aficionado Barack Obama seeks re-election against professed New England Patriots fan Mitt Romney, a look back at the history books reveals that athletes from many different backgrounds have been voted in and out of office quite often through the years. With a list of names including the likes of Ronald Reagan and Manny Pacquiao, athletes both well-known and obscure have done their best to climb the political ladder time and time again. Click here to see some notable athletes-turned-politicians through the years >>

HOUSTON - A suspicious envelope with a white powdery substance was delivered to an east Houston elementary school Friday.
Officials said the envelope was mailed to Franklin Elementary School, 7101 Canal Street in the Houston Independent School District, and arrived at the campus around noon.
HFD hazmat officials went to the scene and did not find anything alarming about it after initial testing. The school was not evacuated. The area where the envelope was received was quarantined until the all-clear was given.
Officials said additional testing will be done on the substance.
School authorities said no students came into contact with the substance.
Principal Jilliane Raphiel sent the following letter home to parents to alert them of the incident.
"I am writing to inform you of an incident that occurred on our campus today, Friday, December 21, 2012. A letter containing a white powdery substance arrived on campus through the U.S. mail. Testing on the envelope and the powdery substance revealed that the substance DID NOT pose a threat to our students or staff. No students are believed to have come into contact with the substance.
"When the letter was opened, campus staff immediately notified law enforcement and a Houston Fire Department hazardous materials crew was dispatched to our school. The main office was temporarily quarantined and the air conditioning system was turned off. Instruction returned to normal after officials removed the letter from campus.
"The Houston Independent School District considers student and employee safety to be our top priority. Please do not hesitate to contact the school if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you."

The Face Guide: Skin Ailments
Lip injectables are a popular means of adding volume to a shriveled pout. Hyaluronic-acid-based ones such as Restylane can be used to enhance the entire area for a fuller appearance—and may even increase your lip's natural collagen production. The procedure costs about $400 and results last up to six months.
Sun spots and dark lines on the lips can be particularly daunting. Thankfully, dermatologists offer a series of laser treatments that can slowly eradicate this discoloration. Daily application of Retinol-based products around the affected area can also work to even skin tone. Most important, however, is consistently applying SPF to prevent further darkening and damage. This is the best thing you can do for a flawless pucker!

It looks like an ordinary household plug-in air ionizer, but it's actually a hidden camera capturing covert video. This surveillance camera features brand new technology that can capture crystal clear surveillance video during the day and at night. With a camera that automatically switches from color to B&W nightvision when the light drops below .5 Lux, you can be sure to capture everything. The built-in hidden night lights/IR illuminators (950mn), give the camera perfect nightvision. The result is great color video by day, and perfect nightvision video in darkness.
With a hidden trap door to house the removable SD card, the Air Ionizer Hidden Camera has no visible signs that it's recording so no one will suspect that the Air Ionizer Hidden Camera is recording their every move. Real-time high resolution MPEG4 video or fast-action snapshots record directly onto a tiny SD card, for easy viewing and transfer. Recording can be played back directly from the unit or SD card can be removed and played on PC. Simply remove the SD card from the hidden back compartment and use the SD Card Reader to connect to any TV or monitor. Once connected, you can easily rewind, fast forward, and play recorded material.

Topic: Surgery didn't happen
I just thought I would update everyone and get some advise.
Gordon was supposed to have surgery yesterday August 20th but two hours into it they had to stop. The did a scope first and noticed the "good" part of his liver was very damaged. They said it was due to all the infections and the chemo!! I was so floored! I expecting for him to tell me it had spread or that he would get through but have complications! Not this!
Im beyond distraught! So can anyone tell me anything about this, has anyone heard of this? is this really bad? Do I just have a short time with my husband?
It is a huge tumor and and has gotten into the diaphram but hasnt seeded? What does that mean. The dr mentioned radiation may be the best thing but is it worth it?? Yes a lot of questions............so upset :(

General Assembly High Level Meeting: Statement by Germany on "Achieving poverty eradication through full employment and decent work for all in the Post-2015 Development Agenda"
(Statement as delivered by Counsellor Stephanie Kage)
Mr. President, Excellencies, distinguished Delegates, Ladies and Gentlemen,
Germany aligns itself with the statement made by the European Delegation on behalf of the EU and its member states.
2015 will be an important year in international politics. The international community will take stock with regard to the Millennium Declaration and will adopt the Post-2015-development agenda.
Great successes have been achieved in reaching the MDGs. The proportion of people, living in extreme poverty was cut in half even before 2015. Although high growth rates and market based reforms in emerging countries have lifted many people to the middle class, reduction of extreme poverty has not been sufficient yet. There are still some 1.3 billion people suffering from hunger. This is unacceptable. A holistic and multidimensional understanding of poverty is needed in order to fight the root causes of poverty and hunger. The post-2015 development agenda should reinforce the international community's commitment to poverty eradication and sustainable development and set out a single comprehensive and coherent framework. This understanding includes to establishing the necessary foundations of sustainable development, such as health and education, sustainable and decent jobs and fair income.
Mr. President,
Germany promotes a strong emphasis on Employment and Decent jobs in the post-2015 agenda, including the achievement of full and productive employment and decent work for men and women alike, with particular attention to the most vulnerable groups. We particularly support prominently addressing the respect, promotion and realization of fundamental principles and rights at work, including for migrant workers, in accordance with the ILO declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work. Germany further supports the establishment and maintenance of social protection floors for all according to ILO recommendation No. 202, including basic income security for children, older persons and persons in active age in cases of sickness, unemployment, disability or maternity. We also support the promotion of social dialogue, which is essential for people's empowerment and participation. We also strongly support a clear reference at target-level to tackling youth unemployment.
In supporting our partner countries, we have achieved positive results through a couple of measures:
- first, measures such as vocational education and training directed at enhancing employability and labor supply,
- second, labor demand interventions such as private sector development to create new jobs,
- third, active labor market policies and instruments to help new entrants in the labour market through measures like youth social work or mentoring schemes by senior entrepreneurs and
- last but not least overall economic policy measures ranging from macroeconomic policies to health or infrastructure creation that help to create an enabling environment.
One example where we tried to take over some of this approach was Sierra Leone - where we improved agricultural value chains and fostered job creation in cocoa production.. There it seems to work very well. More than 20'000 rural jobs for young people – many of them former civil war combatants- were created or incomes improved.
Mr. President,
I would like to take the opportunity to invite all missions to a side event that we will host together with the Mission of Brazil, ILO and WorldSkills on youth employment on the occasion of the ECOSOC-Youth Forum on 2 June 2014 entitled "Skilled for Excellence and Development". Actions for youth employment are urgently needed, because we cannot risk losing this generation.
Our overarching vision is the sustainable eradication of poverty in all its dimensions. This has to be achieved while at the same time respecting the planetary boundaries.
Progress towards the eradication of poverty and sustainable development will not be achievable without decent work for all and it will be meaningless if we do not at the same time address issues of peace and security, promote good governance and the rule of law and ensure the respect of human rights for all.
Thank you, Mr. President.

Seek medical attention right away if any of these SEVERE side effects occur while taking diphenhydramine / pseudoephedrine:
Constipation; diarrhea; dizziness; drowsiness; dry mouth, nose, and throat; excitability; headache; loss of appetite; nausea; nervousness or anxiety; trouble sleeping; upset stomach; vomiting; weakness.
Severe allergic reactions (rash; hives; itching; difficulty breathing; tightness in the chest; swelling of the mouth, face, lips, or tongue); blurred vision or other vision changes; fast or irregular heartbeat; fever, chills, or persistent sore throat; hallucinations; mood or mental changes; persistent trouble sleeping; restlessness; seizures; severe dizziness, lightheadedness, or headache; severe drowsiness; tremor; trouble urinating or inability to urinate; unusual bruising or bleeding.
For Healthcare Professionals
Applies to diphenhydramine / pseudoephedrine: oral liquid, oral tablet, oral tablet disintegrating
Nervous system
The CNS depressant effect of diphenhydramine parallels its plasma concentrations. The plasma concentration threshold for sedation is 30 to 42 ng/mL, and to cause mental impairment is 58 to 74 ng/mL. Patients should be warned against driving while taking diphenhydramine, and should avoid concomitant ingestion of alcohol.
Dystonic reactions to diphenhydramine have been accompanied by dizziness, mental confusion, rigidity, lip and tongue protrusion, trismus, torticollis, and swallowing difficulties. These reactions generally resolve spontaneously. Toxic encephalopathy has been reported in a child with chicken pox treated generously with topical diphenhydramine.
Delirium has been reported in elderly patients with mild dementia following small oral doses of diphenhydramine.[Ref]
Central nervous system (CNS) depression commonly occurs with diphenhydramine administration, resulting in drowsiness and sedation in nearly all patients treated. Motor skills may be impaired. Dystonic reactions have been reported after single doses of diphenhydramine.
Pseudoephedrine produces nervous system stimulation, resulting in tremor, anxiety, and nervousness. Insomnia is reported in up to 30% of pseudoephedrine-treated patients. Headache may also occur in patients receiving pseudoephedrine.[Ref]
Cardiovascular effects of diphenhydramine may include hypotension, tachycardia, and palpitations.
Cardiovascular adverse effects more commonly may be associated with pseudoephedrine. Pseudoephedrine generally causes a significant rise in heart rate. Hypertension and arrhythmias may be problematic in susceptible patients.[Ref]
Pseudoephedrine causes vasoconstriction which generally does not produce hypertension, but may be problematic for patients with pre-existing hypertension. Arrhythmias may be produced in predisposed patients. Rarely, pseudoephedrine has been reported to cause coronary artery spasm and chest pain.[Ref]
Hypersensitivity reactions may occur with diphenhydramine, generally resulting in rash, pruritus and eczema. Photosensitivity reactions have also been reported with diphenhydramine.
Hypersensitivity reactions to pseudoephedrine may also occur. Fixed drug eruptions secondary to pseudoephedrine have been reported.[Ref]
Most commonly, hypersensitivity to diphenhydramine manifests itself in patients receiving systemic drug after being sensitized to it by topical application. Sensitization with systemic administration has also been reported.[Ref]
Gastrointestinal tract adverse effects of diphenhydramine are mild, and may include nausea, dry mouth, and constipation.
Gastrointestinal adverse effects of pseudoephedrine may include anorexia and gastric irritation in approximately 5% of patients. Dry mouth, nose, or throat may occur in up to 15% of patients.[Ref]
Ocular affects of diphenhydramine may include blurred vision, diplopia, and dry eyes due to its anticholinergic effect.[Ref]
The genitourinary tract may be adversely affected due to the anticholinergic effects of diphenhydramine, resulting in urinary retention and dysuria.[Ref]
Hematologic adverse effects such as hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and agranulocytosis may be rarely caused by antihistamines.[Ref]

In case you haven't heard, the Fabulous Beekman Boys will be facing off against 10 other industrious couples in a race to win $2 million on CBS. The competition isn't easy but — to their great benefit — they're down with Martha Stewart who has some great ideas on what the Boys could stuff in their fanny packs when attempting to traverse 25,000 miles of nine countries.
Martha Stewart's Perfect Packing List to Help the Beekman Boys win The Amazing Race:
- Packets of lemon juice to use in drinking water and to wipe surfaces. It's a natural disinfectant and can kill some germs in water. Plus, the packets are small enough to get through TSA.
- Dried figs. Most fruits lose much of their nutrition when dried. Figs don't. They're high in folic acid and potassium. They also have a lot of fiber to combat traveler's constipation.
- Brightly colored pencils. Not only will they help in taking organized notes on plane itineraries or in making maps, but they can also be given to small children you meet along the way as gifts. Since cameras aren't allowed, you can also sketch all of the sites you see to remember them by later.
- Small vial of lavender oil for sleeping on planes.
- Use an iron-on transfer to make a T-shirt that has "Please," "Thank you" and "Have you seen Phil Keoghan around here?" printed in every possible language.

Product Description
REA015 features a unique collection of Los Angeles ambiences from guest contributor, Charles Maynes. Charles is an accomplished Sound Designer and Recordist.
REA015 LA Underground is all about grit and the unseen. Charles describes his recent infatuation with underbelly of Los Angeles:
I found myself interested in recording ambiences in really seedy/unsafe places downtown that made me think of some of my favorite LA crime dramas namely, Billy Friedkin's "Too Live and Die in LA", and Michael Mann's films, "Heat" and "Collateral". I found the locations for all those films to be an incredible juxtaposition of the common sunny depiction of Los Angeles which draws so many tourists… well, those tourists probably don't go to these places….
Technical Note from Charles: All files were recorded with a Sound Devices 744T, and a MS mic rig using the Oktava MK012, and its figure of eight adaptor. The mid mic was either a cardiod, or hypercardiod. The only processing used was volume adjustments to matrix the signals to L/R stereo. No EQ or any other processing was used.

Found this weird, so had a feel that I should bring this up. Now we know it's the unseal death dude no jutsu on it, but Suigetsu said that they could control the war using the contents of that scroll, and that Sasuke could have learned it if he had taken his time with it, so:
- What does Dead Demon Consuming Seal: Release have to anything with helping them control the war???
- There's nothing to learn, you just put on a mask and that's it, so I don't get this one either.
- We know only Oro can do this due to immortality thingy, so Suigetsu's statement makes even less sense.
- Only Oro knew the location of the storage temple and Orochimaru's revival nor ones who know everything were intended or being aware of by Suigetsu when he brought this to Sasuke
So yeah ._.--Elveonora (talk) 20:25, March 15, 2013 (UTC)
Your not making sense please explain It better--Jean DaichouLoves Naruto 20:36, March 15, 2013 (UTC)
My own statements are easily comprehensible and make perfect sense to me, for I had thought of them before my fingers have taken the action to write all of this T_T--Elveonora (talk) 20:54, March 15, 2013 (UTC)
Releasing he Hokage means they become summonable. Whether he thought Sasuke himself could use Edo Tensei, or that they could learn it somehow is up in the air. We only say Orochimaru put on the mask. For all we know, it's not just that, maybe he has to do something to chakra to activate it or something like that. And even if it doesn't scroll is still necessary because it shows which mask is the right one. There were several, similar looking masks at the temple. Suigetsu thought Sasuke could do it. Maybe Sasuke wouldn't need to perform it himself, for all we know could control a random Zetsu clone, or any other person he could get his hands on, and genjutsu them into performing the technique. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 02:56, March 16, 2013 (UTC)
But Suigetsu had no intention of releasing the Hokage for he had no idea that's what Sasuke would and want do. Thus Suigetsu intended Sasuke to learn Edo Tensei, but then, the scroll must also obtain intel on how to perform the technique besides creepy mask location, should be noted I think--Elveonora (talk) 15:46, March 16, 2013 (UTC)
Maybe he didn't know that would want them reincarnated to question them, but only an idiot wouldn't consider the possibility of having their military power on their side during a war. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 16:02, March 16, 2013 (UTC)

Burley Parish Council has placed a memorial board on the wall of the parish office to honour past chairmen.
Burley Parish Council was established in 2006 after a campaign by local people that involved a local referendum and the approval of parliament.
During the last seven years there have been four chairmen of Burley Parish Council and to thank them for the contribution they have made to Burley a memorial board has been placed on the wall of the parish office in Burley.
The board was made by Bruce Speed, of Burley and the suggestion of the board came from Caroline Jones who has recently stepped down as a Parish Councillor after a long career in community politics in both Burley and Ilkley Parish Councils.
Chairman of Burley Parish Council, councillor John Grimshaw said: "I am very proud of what Burley Parish Council has achieved in a few years, but this has only been possible by everyone working together with partners to get things done.
"The memorial board recognises the work done by Burley Parish Council and its chairmen."

Thread: Carmageddon (iOS)
Carmageddon (iOS)
Since it was only 89 cents I picked up the iPad version of Carmageddon, expecting little more than a trip down memory lane. Instead I found myself having a hard time putting it down and have now finished all but a handful of the races over the course of the last few days. It really is more playable and fun than an iOS version of a 15 year old PC game has any right to be. The replay function now lets you save your videos, so I made this compilation of stunts, crashes and assorted awesomeness:
First off, the controls. Anything more complex than puzzle games tend to be an akward affair on the iPad, but the controls in this one are just about perfect. You know a game has good controls when you don't even have to think them, and Carmageddon on iPad certainly pulls that off.
As for the graphics, it looks as good, if not better than the original. Though on my first generation iPad it did suffer from slowdowns whenever there were a lot of particles on screen at once(tiresmoke, sparks). It also crashed a handful of times, and the sound cut out twice.
Gameplay and featurewise it's quite faithful to the original. The only notable omissions are the clutch-key (Z), and lack of cockpit view(only bumpercam). On the plus side are the afforementioned new replay-functions, and also it feels like powersliding has been made much easier and fun in this version.
Bottomline: If you're looking for something to tide you over till Reincarnation comes out next year, this is a great port, and defenitely worth picking up! :D

Well if you got out of bed on release day, you could have got it for free. Like me! :D
Ed: Nice review btw.
I have such great memories of this game. I'll be picking it up for free once it is released for Android. Of course I pledged to the Kickstarter as well.The Medallion of the Imperial Psychopath, a Napoleon: Total War AAR

Dartmouth College Office of Public Affairs • Press Release
Thayer School of Engineering at Dartmouth will host the third-annual Formula Hybrid International Competition – a collegiate engineering contest that embraces clean technologies and design in automotive racing. Thirty teams representing 5 countries will convene at New Hampshire Motor Speedway in Loudon, N.H., on May 4-6 to see who has designed the best high performance hybrid-powered formula-style racecar.
The competition challenges engineering students to design and fabricate a fully functional racecar and overcome real-world constraints of technical knowledge, human resources, and funding.
"The students at Thayer School take real-world challenges like energy-efficiency seriously," says Dean of the Thayer School Joseph Helble. "Formula Hybrid provides the perfect challenge, a test of their engineering skills, an opportunity to work on an important problem, and a chance to compete against their peers. It's always inspiring to see what engineering students can do when given the opportunity to innovate and work together."
Much like college athletes training for championships, collegiate formula racing teams spend the season honing their engineering acumen for the three-day-long competition. Professional engineers from the automotive and motorsport industries score teams in two major categories: students' proficiency in engineering design and their car's track performance. Trophies will be awarded for first through third place overall, and additional recognition given for several individual categories including design, presentation, endurance, and acceleration.
The event is modeled on the popular Formula-SAE competition in which colleges and universities across the globe have participated for the last twenty years. Formula Hybrid, however, inspires budding engineers to think green by introducing elements of high power electronics, hybrid drivetrain design, and restrictions on fuel efficiency.
"One of the biggest excitements of the program is bringing together electrical and mechanical engineers," says Wynne Washburn, co-organizer of the competition. "It's great to see two groups of people who study fundamentally different fields work together towards a common goal. The cross-disciplinary learning is invaluable."
While many research institutions have been involved with energy technologies for some time, the collaboration between academia and industry is gaining momentum with events such as Formula Hybrid. Even professional racing leagues, such as Formula One, have begun experimenting with energy-saving technologies.
Make McDermott, advisor to Texas A&M's Formula Hybrid team comments, "The whole world is looking for alternative sources of fuel. The timing of Formula Hybrid couldn't have been better."
"Events like Formula Hybrid really showcase our students' approach to problem solving," says John Collier, the advisor to Thayer School's team and the Myron Tribus Professor of Engineering Innovation. "They have built an entirely new car from scratch, from the chassis to the powertrain. They have demonstrated the power of teamwork and have produced an impressive car this year."
Competition sponsors include: the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE); Plug In America; New England Region SCCA; General Motors; Toyota; and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).
By CALVIN KRISHEN and SUSAN KNAPP
Thayer School of Engineering at Dartmouth is one of the country's oldest professional schools of engineering.

Lenovo IdeaPad S10-3s Unveiledby Balraj Sandhu on 4/12/2010 8:08 PM EST

Back to Article
vol7ron - Tuesday, April 13, 2010 - linkIs it just me, or can't you find some cheap Dells and Acers around $500 with a Core i3/i5 and similar battery life? They may not have an SSD, but still these netbook marketers/economists are having the same pricing problem that the iPad is having. Except, the iPad actually looks and feels nice - it's unique, which might make it qualify for a higher price, unlike these round-of-the-mill lapbooks :)
Also, I don't get why they keep using 1.3MP webcam as a selling point? 1.3MP wasn't worth it when it was new, I can't imagine using that as a selling point now, especially since phones are moving to the 5MP (or greater) standard. There's a big leap from 1.3 to 5, perhaps netbooks could settle around 3MP?
Just my 2 cents,
vol7ron Reply
Calin - Tuesday, April 13, 2010 - linkYou won't find a i7 in a 10" enclosure (maybe not ever in anything below 14"). i7 is a very powerful processor, yet it has too high thermal dissipation to fit inside a small netbook.
As for now, lightweight 10" with long life away from the socket seems to be a place only for Atom. Reply
vol7ron - Tuesday, April 13, 2010 - linkThat may be true, though, I never say "never" :)
Also, nothing was mentioned about an i7. I had mentioned the i3/i5, but still, I think they could manage to keep all of them cool. Reply
pygo - Wednesday, April 21, 2010 - linkFor i7 in small form one need look no farther then Sony Z (13.3"), or HP 2540p (12.1")
I am almost positive that there are others. Power in small form factor can be accomplished but not without a price...usually a hefty one. Reply
icrf - Tuesday, April 13, 2010 - linkFor a webcam, I don't think you need any more than that. Phones have higher res camera because people actually take pictures of things. A webcam is pretty much just used for video conferencing, something that doesn't require anything more than 1.3 MP. Reply
vol7ron - Tuesday, April 13, 2010 - linkI disagree. Video conferencing is still not as integrated into daily life as it has the potential to. There are a lot of reasons for that, but I think the quality of the stream/images influence people's emotional connection to the idea. 1.3MP was what web cams used 10 years ago, I'm surprised it's still being offered today. Reply
jbwhite99 - Tuesday, April 13, 2010 - linkfor the record, 1080p is only 2MP (1920*1080). Still cameras are 5 or even up to 18MP, but that is for still shots. My current (ca 2006) Canon A630 is 8MP, but will only shoot 640*480 video. Remember that video is very expensive to store - that's why a 2hr DVD holds 4.7GB - at DVD resolution, you are at about 2-3GB per hour minimum.
In terms of processor - consider my Dad. He has a pretty powerful 2yr old notebook. But it is a 15" beast. When he travels, he wants something much lighter that will have great battery life - that's what people are getting netbooks for. If you want a gaming machine, get your 15" i7, and watch the battery last 45 minutes, and your lap burst into flames if you have it in your lap. Reply
strikeback03 - Tuesday, April 13, 2010 - linkI highly doubt any videoconference software is even transmitting the full 1.3MP (around 1280x960) video stream. Lots of bandwidth and lots of processing power to encode and decode. Reply
DanNeely - Tuesday, April 13, 2010 - linkI'm really hoping this is a Matte screen; I want something a bit better than 1024x600 in a 10" package; but the only panel currently in use (1366x768 on some Dell, HP, and ASUS netbooks) is glossy and I detest glare on my screens. Reply
JarredWalton - Tuesday, April 13, 2010 - linkI'm pretty sure all of the IdeaPad line uses glossy LCDs. Sorry--I'm with you on the glossy hatewagon. :-) Reply
echtogammut - Tuesday, April 13, 2010 - linkI will let you know, I have one of these (tablet version w/ all options) on the way. It was only $470 shipped, so I figured it would make a good system for hauling around to clients for demonstrations. I am hoping that it isn't too glossy either. Reply

You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I wanted to make a photo card for our thank yous so that everyone who attended had a photo of my husband and I; further, I wanted to send a photo to all those who sent along a gift or card, but who could not attend. I think these turned out beautifully. The cardstock is a nice weight, it is the perfect size for terse and simple thank yous and I was impressed with the picture quality. Other reviewers complained about the sides not meeting up correctly - there is the slightest overlap when folded, but it is minimal and does not detract from the card. Would highly recommend."
"This product was very easy to make. Just upload my photos and place them where I want. Great way to send out thank yous and for family & friends to see a few pictures from the wedding."
"These cards were perfect for my shower thank you's. They are so pretty. The paper thickness was perfect. I have a few left over so I will probably use them for my vendors."
"I am so glad I invested in this quality thank you card. The final product is so attractive! It feels like a suitable card to match the amount of gratitude my husband and I have for our guests! I know people will savor these!"
"This is my second purchase from wedding paper divas and again I am very happy with my product. Easy site to navigate, super fast delivery all the way to NZ. The print and paper quality would have been perfect if the bottom pictures hadn't been cropped slightly. They still look great but it may pay to check your not going to lose anything important if the bottom is cropped just a smidge. Again very pleased with this company :)"

Rex Ryan's current club, the Bills, swept his former team, the Jets, in 2015, including keeping New York from making the playoffs with a victory in the season finale.
"I think when you put everything you had into a place, and then you leave it, it was more emotional," Ryan said of being fired after the 2014 season, then landing immediately in Western New York.
"But now it's been a year away, and I'm firmly, well, firmly, maybe some people don't think I'm firmly situated here. But I feel that I'm firmly grounded here, and this is my new team and my new home in Buffalo. All the other stuff I think is not in play as much as it probably was last year."
While Buffalo's offense was invisible in a 13-7 defeat at Baltimore, New York fell 23-22 to Cincinnati in part because its always-reliable placekicker, Nick Folk, missed a field goal and, for the first time in his nine-plus NFL seasons, an extra point.
The Jets (No. 16 in AP Pro32) are 3-point underdogs at Buffalo (No. 25). That's the value of a Folk field goal. He'll actually make more than one — and all his extra points
