Stores are making a big push to get bargain hunters to come in during the entire holiday season—beyond Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
With the rush to grab shoppers with new sites and apps, it's easier than ever to save money.
But there is a downside, and that is trying to keep your wits about you when faced with the urgency of the shopping season and the overwhelming excitement of getting a bargain.
Remember, it's not a bargain if you have to go into debt to buy it. Tweet this
Here are the latest and greatest tips for stretching those Holiday dollars:
Be a Downloader
Going to your computer or the mall prepared can save time and money. Downloading apps and bookmark websites beforehand.
Pricegrabber is an app that allows you to find product information, compare prices and get merchant ratings. Searched results can be sorted by price, rating or popularity.
Or, download Smoopa, a comparison app that lets you join forces with other shoppers to scout for the best prices for your favorite products.
Don't forget your favorite store apps or e-mail lists to stay informed of daily discounts and freebies.
Plus, RetailMeNot is the best place to find coupon codes both online and in the stores.
Be a Master Planner
For those of us who really love great deals, there's the usual dilemma of: is Black Friday or Cyber Monday the best choice?
If you go to the premier Cyber Monday site, as well as the most popular Black Friday site, you can see the deals and comparative shop.
So while you're out on Black Friday, access the Cyber Monday site to see if you can get a better deal by waiting until Cyber Monday, which is December 1, 2014.
Be a Master Decorator
Wrap each gift as you get it. Don't forget to label for whom each gift is intended.
You may want to keep a master list of the gifts, annotating the contents as you buy and wrap them. Awesome Notes is a good app that will help you stay organized by combining notes with your "to do" list.
That way you won't duplicate gifts or overbuy for any one person.
Be Diligent about Documenting
There's nothing like buying Holiday paper to wrap those presents early, only to discover a month later that you have tons of paper you bought at the end-of-season clearance last year and forgot about it.
Or, you get a good deal on gifts for teachers and then realize you bought those earlier in the year and forgot where you put them.
Write down your purchases – and where you stashed them – on a piece of paper and tape it to next year's December calendar page or indicate it in your electronic calendar on your phone with digital notes for December 1, 2015.
Be Decisive with Deal "Brokers"
Groupon and Living Social are all great when it comes to getting good group buying deals. But what do you do with deals you want to unload?
Some group buying sites, such as Groupon.com will give refunds, but not all are so generous.
After all, you don't want to go broke saving money. Here are some options:
- BestTravelDeals– If you want to sell a travel deal that you cannot take advantage of, go to this site, which is designed to cash in on your unused travel deals.
- SmartySaver – This is a daily deal aggregator site that offers a separate page for consumers who want to buy or sell their daily deals.
- CoupRecoup – This is like a Craigslist for Groupon. Although this is the biggest site on the Internet for deal resellers, it does not offer guarantees. So it's a "what you see is what you get" offer.
Be Green
This year, with some forethought and strategy, your gifts could keep on giving throughout the entire year as you place an emphasis on keeping the season green.
For example, gift cards that can be recharged are a great idea to save a tree or two as packaging is minimized.
They can also help a cash-strapped family buy the essentials.
Consider giving e-cards instead of traditional cards to save money, stamps, time and trees.
When selecting certain presents, try gifting our environment by giving appliances that have an energy star rating or are eco-friendly.
This saves our natural resources, energy and will save the recipient money, too.
Along these lines, help families and friends continue to save money by putting together a "green bag" filled with CFL light bulbs and other eco friendly items that are likewise labeled to include CDs, baby products, apparel and other sustainable products—then put them together in reusable tote bags.
Other gifts that keep it green are ones that reach out to the global community to help other people groups become more sustainable.
One year, my brother-in-law made a donation to a non-profit organization in our name. This group was responsible for digging fresh water wells in third world countries.
At Operation Gratitude.com, you can find an organization that gives care packages to the troops throughout the year.
You can also recycle unused toiletries from hotel stays or buy eco friendly versions of the items needed for these packages and assemble them as a family.
It's a great lesson to our kids about giving green and making it a habit.
Be Kind
Sometimes the gift of time is the greatest gift of all during the holidays. Tweet this
There are a number of ways you can brighten the holidays of those around you and share the season.
For instance, invite a neighbor, foreign exchange student or the family of a deployed military member over for the holiday dinner.
These can be the hardest times of the year for people who are separated from loved ones.

Kitten training
I have an 8 week old kitten who I wanted to become an esa (emotional support animal) with basic training and good behavior lessons. I was thinking things such as comfort when in a car instead of the constant meowing, to become more comfortable with other animals, to be harness trained and other things such as that. I am 100% willing and wanting to learn how to train as well, and how to make it better and easier without accidentally encouraging bad behavior.

Pinned. It's a position no wrestler wants to find himself in; especially not on one of the biggest days of his wrestling career. However, on Thursday, June 12, 2014, Jake Calhoun found himself flat on his back unable to continue his journey toward accomplishing his lifelong goal of making the United States Wrestling World Team.
Jake lives for wrestling. From an athletic family, his father was a gymnast and his grandfather an Olympic gymnastics coach, Jake has spent much of his life working towards becoming an Olympic wrestler. He is an NCAA two-time Division III national qualifier and reached University Level All-American status. Professionally, at the time of the accident he was the head coach for Muhlenberg College's wrestling program. In addition to coaching, he continued to compete at the senior level in Greco-Roman and Freestyle with Modern Day Gladiators Wrestling Club.
Jake traveled from his home in Pennsylvania to the Daytona, FL to compete in the Wresting World Team Trials along with his coaches and teammates. On Thursday, June 12, 2014 Jake went from being a strong, determined, healthy athlete, to fighting for his life in the intensive care. During an outdoor workout, Jake became overheated and collapsed. Unconscious and breathing rapidly, he was rushed by ambulance to a local hospital. His internal body temperature rose to life threatening levels; diagnosed with heat stroke, his organs started shutting down. By Saturday his condition grew worse and he was moved to the nearest transplant center, the University of Florida Health Shands Transplant Center in Gainesville, FL; his best chance for survival was a liver transplant.
With this devastating news, his family left their homes in Wisconsin to travel nearly 1,500 miles to Florida to support, watch, and wait. In addition to his family, friends from as far away as Colorado and Pennsylvania arrived to offer encouragement and support at the hospital. A cautiously optimistic team of doctors began the paperwork and evaluations Jake needed to receive a liver transplant. Jake tired easily, but fought to stay awake and visit with what the nurses called his "entourage". On afew occasions when he was feeling strong enough he went for a walk through the ICU with 5-8 people following him and the nurses. When awake, Jake constantly wanted to know what he could do to get better. His inner competitor wanted work through the injury, even going so far as to ask the nurses if he could do squats.
Jake's skin and eyes were yellow from the jaundice. His arms, legs, hands and feet were swollen to resemble balloons. His body frequently shook with hiccups and tremors originating in his legs. When he was finally allowed something to drink he made a very specific request – he wanted room temperature water. Without his liver filtering the toxins from his body, Jake's mind was "fuzzy". Sometimes Jake's answers were quiet humorous, he was convinced after he read the label that the Osmolite bottle connected to his feeding tube contained an omelet. His mom started keeping a list of the funny things he said. To be fair, he wasn't the only one saying humorous things. After overhearing a group of hospital interns wondering what happened to Jake's ears his mom explained he had "cabbage ears" from wrestling, only to have his sister remind her it is referred to as cauliflower, not cabbage.
On June 19th, a week after the accident, doctors told Jake and his family that they didn't think his liver had a chance of recovering from the trauma of the heat stroke; his liver functioned at 5% of its normal capacity, which indicated to the doctors that Jake would not survive without a transplant. The transplant team assessed Jake as a Status 1; according to the MELD scale used to evaluate liver transplant patients, Status 1 patients have sudden and severe onset of liver failure and a life expectancy without a transplant of only a few days. Less than one percent of liver transplant candidates are in this category.
The same day he was listed, an offer was made for Jake to be the secondary recipient for a liver transplant taking place at the same hospital. He was prepped, with a whirlwind of activity: medical professionals rushed in and out, various forms were signed and testing procedures completed.
As doctors explained the transplant procedure, Jake told his Mom he wanted to live and that he would do whatever was needed to make that happen, he "just wanted to live".
The primary patient received the liver, so Jake's surgery didn't take place that night. Jake's health worsened with each day. By Sunday morning rounds Jake was having a difficult time answering simple questions such as the date or where he was. The doctor prepared Jake and his family for what might come, saying that if Jake's overall health continued to deteriorate, it may be necessary to insert a breathing tube. The liver is an important organ controlling over 500 functions in the body. Without his liver functioning properly the toxins were building in Jake's system causing him to become increasingly confused and damaging other vital organs.
Luckily, that night, Jake received the amazing news – the doctors found a match! His surgery was scheduled for 3 am on Monday, June 23, 2014. Jake was confused and anxious as they prepared him for surgery. As he waited for the transplant team to take him to the operating room, Jake's inner warrior kicked in, driving him to do whatever he could to get into surgery. He repeatedly tried to jump out of bed, saying "let's go, let's go." His parents waited with him until it was time. At 3:13 am family and friends gathered together in the surgical waiting room, armed for the long night ahead: blankets, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and various other snacks. They napped, either in chairs or on the floor, while it was quiet. Sleep eluded Jake's dad, who instead paced all night waiting for news from the transplant team about his youngest son.
As the sun started to rise, the smell of coffee wafted in as other families began to enter the waiting area. Just before 8 am, a surgical nurse came to tell the family that the new liver was in place and functioning, but that the surgery would continue for a few more hours. Finally, eight hours after they took Jake to the operating room, the lead surgeon entered the waiting area looking tired but wearing a fresh white lab coat. He shared the details of the surgery: everything had gone well; Jake tolerated the procedure without any complications; and the new liver was in and functioning. The surgeon said it was good the transplant happened when it did because Jake probably couldn't have survived much longer. Prior to the surgery, the team of doctors estimated that Jake's injured liver was functioning at a small percent, but saw during the procedure that it was completely necrotic. It was a miracle Jake had survived so long; the transplant came at just the right time.
Today, Jake is recovering from his ordeal in Florida with his dad by his side to care for him. He's awaiting the transplant team's approval to transfer him to a specialist near his home in Pennsylvania. Jake is anxious to get back to coaching at Muhlenberg College. His team started school the week of August 26th and he is looking forward to joining them on campus. For now, the doctors are hopeful he might be able to leave Florida in the fall; Jake wants nothing more than to return to Pennsylvania before wrestling season starts.
Jake has an extensive network of friends and family working together with National Foundation for Transplants (NFT) to help raise money for his transplant related expenses. NFT is a 501(c) 3 nonprofit organization dedicated to helping organ and tissue recipients succeed. To learn more about NFT visit www.transplants.org. To read more about Jake's story you can visit his personal NFT campaign homepage, Jacob Calhoun.
In the meantime, watch here for updates and exciting events planned by his fundraising committee. First up is Laps for a Liver, then a multi-state event organized with Texas Road House (details to be posted soon) and a 2015 Wrestler Calendar (get your photos ready to enter).

You Were Always Late
Doesn't matter how bad it was going to be, I always thought the day I would die, I would be in his arms.
But what was I thinking?
He's always late.
I grunt as I drag myself across the lilies, destroying what few were left from the fight. Sorry about that, Aeris. I guess we got a little carried away...'S not like I wanted to fight here, either. Oh, and the pillar...and those few pews...yeah, sorry about those, too.
Even if I am going to die, and it's not going to be in his arms, I'll be damned if I'm just going to lie here like a dog and let death take me. That's not how it's going to happen.
I know I don't have the strength to make it to anywhere that could keep me alive or give me medical attention, but, I'm going to get out of these flowers if it's the last thing I do.
...well, I think it's rather obvious this is going to be the last thing I do.
I'm going to show them, that even facing death, I had some strength left...that I was still strong. And it's not like I was going to lie there where that idiot punched me down with that freaking cheap-shot.
I hiss, pulling myself up out of the flowers, and onto the floorboards. My stomach contracts, and I fight vomiting. Digging my fingers down, I pull myself across the planks, teeth gritted, until I reach a column. Pulling myself up with heavy breaths, I wince as I prop myself up against the large column. I give out a sigh, relaxing up against the thing.
I pull off my gloves.
I honestly never thought the day I died, I would be propped up against a pillar, the stone cold and unforgiving on my back.
I sigh, tilting my head away from the flowers.
You'd probably think I'd be more comfortable there, right? And they were Aeris' flowers, and that alone should bring me ease and comfort.
You're wrong.
I'm more comfortable on this dusty, creaky floor than in her flowers.
You're thinking, bitchy, huh?
Well, it's not like that. Let me explain first.
I owe the woman too much as it is, and it's my own fault for getting myself mixed up into this mess. And those flowers, they would just lull me into a sleep with no pain, but here...here on this floor, I feel the pain, and I know I'm alive.
And since I'm alive, there's a chance he might show up, and I might get to see him.
I'm foolish, no?
Maybe I am, for waiting for my knight in shining armor to show up.
They say your first love isn't your only love...I'd like to stuff my foot in the mouths of the people who say that.
Selfish, eh? But...it's the only thing that I have left. It's the only hope that I have that he might actually love me.
Desperate, aren't I?
I know...but...maybe my first love is my only love. And if I die here today, that'll only be confirming it. I sigh again, eyes downcast.
I pull my hand across my stomach to hide the blood that's seeping through my white shirt and dripping off my hips.
He lives here...so maybe he does love her...or maybe he doesn't. Does it really matter, honestly? I mean, he never said he did, and he never said he didn't...so there's still hope, right?
But honestly, I sometimes wish he would've said he loved her, so that way...that way there'd be a reason why he doesn't love me. There would be a reason as to how after everything we've been through, he still doesn't love me.
Without him loving her, there's no reason why he doesn't love me.
The only reason is, is merely the fact that I'm not the woman he's supposed to love.
And I think that's the thing that scares me the most.
He may not love me because I'm merely me.
Still, I can't stop loving him. That's the way love goes, isn't it? Your heart dictates, not your brain. Sure, my brain's told me a thousand times over to pick up and move on.
But my heart anchors me to him, and I can't just let him go like that.
Sure, we were never close as kids...but we're all that's left of Nibelhiem. Him and me...that's it. That's got to count for something, right?
My eyes land on a fallen lily.
They say that only those untouched by greed go to the Promised Land.
I won't be going there.
I've never been greedy for objects, or money...but I have been greedy.
For his love. That's the only thing I have greed for, that I wish and yearn for. So, I guess I'm not pure, not untainted. I guess I won't be going to the Promise Land. I guess I'll join the thousands of dormant souls in the Lifestream, and float aimlessly along the waves.
I regard the lily harshly.
"So that means...I can't come back and talk to him...or see you..." I actually speak to it, as if she doesn't know what I'm thinking, anyways. "I can't do the things you do...so when I die, you have to take care of him, promise?"
A soft breeze ruffles the air of the church and I swallow.
That means it's true, doesn't it? Is that a sign? I've never really been one for signs...but there are those you can't deny...or at least I can't.
Another sharp pain stabs my stomach, and I grunt, folding over for a minute, before straightening again.
It's coming, I can feel it...the way the air seeps into a chill around me, despite the sun that streams through the roof. The areas in my peripheral vision darkens, and I literally have tunnel vision. I'm staring at that door, waiting for it to open. Waiting to see him. Just a glimpse, really, is all I want. Just something to take with me to the Lifestream, if I get to take anything. I just want to have his face engraved in my mind perfectly. That's all I want.
There's a metallic tang in my mouth, and a cool liquid seeps from the corner of my lips.
I hiss, another pain, gripping my entire body and I shake.
I should've just stayed in the flowers.
The pain slaps me full force, and I ball up my fist, my other hand clutching my leg until the pain passes.
I let out a heavy sigh, my breathing labored, tilting my head towards the door again.
It's okay if I die.
It's okay...I know you've got a lot on your shoulders, and I'm sorry to add this to it.
It's selfish of me to think that maybe my death will affect you as much as hers, to show that you loved me...but I hope it doesn't. I hope you don't care, because I want you to live. I want you to breathe, and smile, and be happy, and enjoy life for once. You've done so much already for all of us, so you shouldn't have to suffer anymore.
I know you have Geostigma, I think I sorta knew for a long time. I hope you get better, and I hope you learn to fight, and be the brave man I know you can be.
And I know there are times when you just want to hide away like the little boy from Nibelhiem. But you can't do that now, as much as you'd like. I won't let you, and I don't think Aeris or Zack will either...because like it or not, you brought yourself into the world of heros, and that's where you're going to stay.
Because we have faith in you.
And why am I saying this, when you aren't even here? When I know you can't hear me? Well, maybe by some grace of Aeris, she'll let you hear this...even after I've passed into the Lifestream, and fallen asleep.
And maybe, by some grace of Aeris, I'll still have you...that image of your face, when you're happy, and when you're sad, and those rare moments when anger or frustration show through; and then...when you laugh, or when you're shocked.
Maybe she'll just let me have those. Maybe she'll let me live eternity in that night under the Highwind. I read a lot of adventure novels, you know (what's the point, right? We've lived in one) And in each and every one, the girl always got the guy or visa versa. But that didn't happen with us, did it? That night...I know you didn't say you loved me, and I know I never said it to you, but if it ever felt that we were lovers, it was that night...that night when we watched the stars drift, and when you held me in your arms.
That was the night I felt you loved me...
Even if you don't love me now, and even if you didn't love me before...I think you loved me then...even if it was just for me, just to humor me and soothe me. I still appreciate that, and I still love you, and I always will.
And I'm going to wait for you here, propped up against this column, as death takes me. I'll just wait here. You'll get here eventually. Yes, I'll just wait here for you, even if I'm already dead...I'm waiting.
I always have to wait on you, but that's okay. I'm use to it.
After all, you were always late.
A/N: Morbid, eh? Well, I was listening to slow piano music, and drawing a picture from this actually, and I kept thinking thoughts Tifa might've thought...and I came up with this. I think that Tifa wouldn't have just laid there and died (if she'd actually have died) I twisted things, and what do you know, I left you hanging. Did she die? Did she see Cloud before she died? Did Cloud love her or Aeris? Did she go to the Promise Land? Questions I believe you can answer for yourself, with your own opinions. What do ya know, I gave a tragic yet hopeful ending...and I switched out my usual Aerith for Aeris...just giving it a try...so who knows? Enjoy.

I can't choose one favourite pet over others but I can say that my current cat, Josie, is so adorable - she's recently taken a liking to a cardboard box that I had been keeping in my spare room (saved for shipping presents), so much so that the other day I found her sitting in it, purring like crazy! (And she's not normally an often-purring kitty, so that shows how much she really likes it :) I can't bear to take it away from her now so I guess I'll just hang on to it until she doesn't like it anymore.
Happy Holidays!!!

As I have 3 cats right now, I don't want to upset them by choosing one over the other... but I do have very fond memories of KC, my kitty from way back when. I had him when I was young and he was very cuddly to snuggle with.

We live with 3 cats, a dog, and the memory of another cat and dog so of course they are all my favorites. But probably the most special one to me was my dog Sailor. I rescued him from the street where he had been living over a year since he was 6 months old. Prior to that he lived chained to a post outside. He was so terrified of people that it took me over 6 months of sitting near him outside everyday just to get him to trust me. Eventually he did and I was able to bring him inside. With a lot of love, he quickly became the sweetest pet ever. So smart and gentle. He would give high-fives, play dead if you said 'bang bang', and even had some doggie karate moves. (I'm not kidding) He was with me non-stop for 12 years until he passed away a year and a half ago.

Our once-feral cat Rocky was traveling with a family of raccoons when we first saw him. We put out food and water for the raccoons in the winter and little Rocky had adopted them as his family. It took us several months(and frigid cold weather) to get him in the house and another month before he would leave the throw rug by the back door. He's been our buddy for 4 years now and still spends several hours a day outside but sleeps at the end of the bed every night! (Apologies to all the other animals I've shared my life with; I loved them all.)

When I was growing up we had a beagle, named Peter. Charles Shulz knew wherw of he spoke when he made Snoopy a beagle - they are different from other dogs. Peter didn't like to be left alone. If he was left more than two hours, he would lift his leg on the fridge and only the fridge. If he was left for more that four hours we would come home to find hime sitting on the kitchen table singing and given that beagles are hunting dogs there really is no other way to describe the sound he made except as signing. I love the cards, especially the bear in the lovely suit.

My favorite pet is my kitty, Raleigh. I got her when she was barely 3 weeks old. She was bound for the pound. So I got her, and brought her home. She has been by my side ever since. Now she's 3 years old, and perfectly pudgy :)
Beautiful cards, thanks so much for a chance to win them :)

Oh, wow! Do you guys sell your work as prints? I LOVE these! I love all your work, (gush) but really, how special would these be as art in a childrens room? I love the colours, everything. Have you ever seen "Ol' Mistah Buzzard" and the books in that set, a fox, I can barely remember. But this reminds me of them. I think they were my mothers maybe.
Anyhow, my favorite pet story involves our little jack russel, Chip being brought home. We had a military macaw who was a total terror. She was huge and green and evil. She would walk across the floor and our rotweiler would move out of the way for her. When chip came home he was just itty bitty and we tried to keep him away from her but her curiosity eventually won out and when she finally got close to him, the strangest thing happened. She started to regurgitate food like he was a chick. For his entire puppyhood she preened him, protected him, wrestled with him and played tug of war with him. The sad part was that as he got bigger she couldn't keep up with him and eventually he started playing with the other dogs and she went back to being a bird. Very sweet memeories though!
Merry Yulexchriswinter!

Did you say "quicky" or "querky"? My cat, Eddie, for no apparent reason, went into my closet and ate the edges of the cuffs of my shirts! Naughty Eddie - no gifts under the tree for you - just a couple new shirts for me! I don't know if that is my favorite pet story but certainly is memorable. Beautiful cards! Thanks for the opportunity to win.

Merry Christmas from a reader in T.O. and thanks for this giveaway! The holidays bring memories of one our best pets ever...our springer spaniel Holly. She was far too big to be a lap dog, but it was always her favourite spot to sit...firmly snuggled on our laps with legs all splayed, snoring away! Christmas morning meant lots of fun unwrapping a new box of Milkbones...dog heaven!

Merry Christmas, these cards are gorgeous!
My favourite pet was a fat Australian red Kelpie sheepdog named Rhubarb, who loved nothing more than freshly shelled peas, cut up apples and plenty of affection (and dog food!) He wasn't so keen on the working component of being a sheep dog, and usually took off in the other direction when the sheep needed to be rounded up.

Those cards are just lovely!
My favorite pet is my little Lola Margarita. She's a white long-haired chihuahua who won't leave my side. (she's keeping my lap warm at this very moment). I never really considered myself much of a dog person - more of the cat type - until we got her. She's the most devoted ball of fluff - she's totally won my heart over!

A Nelson woman was startled to come home and find a bobcat in the basement of her Johnstone Road home on Friday afternoon.
Leanne Kalabis figures her basement door must have blown open while she was out. The wild feline came inside, wandered down a long hallway and around a corner, then couldn't find its way back to the door.
"I could hear something running around and lunging at the window," Kalabis told the Star.
She and her dog went downstairs to investigate.
"Initially I just saw the front of its face and thought, 'oh, it's just someone's cat,' but then I saw the rest of it," Kalabis said.
The animal was about three times the size of a house cat, with the distinctive black-tufted ears and stubby tail that could only belong to a bobcat. Kalabis' dog, with a slight size advantage, went after the animal.
"They battled it out for a little bit, then the bobcat scaled the wall towards a windows and got into the blinds," Kalabis said. "It became pretty entangled in the blinds, as it was thrashing and hissing at my dog."
She back went upstairs with her dog, whose ear was bleeding from being swatted by the bobcat, and closed the door to the stairs to prevent the animal from following them. She called the RCMP and her neighbour, Dr. Jim Noiles, for help.
The bobcat was stuck in the blinds and could not get free on its own. So, RCMP officer Michael Stefani grabbed a role of duct tape and connected two broom sticks together and attached his knife to the end.
He cut the animal free and shooed it out the door.
Kalabis doesn't know what attracted the animal into the house. It didn't get into anything or cause any damage prior to becoming wrapped in the blinds.
"I think it was just confused," she said. "More than anything, it wanted out of my house."
Though bobcats are typically most active during the evening and early morning hours, it is not uncommon to see the carnivores hunting during the day in the winter, when their prey — rabbits and small rodents — are more difficult to find.

text: Orbital Sciences Corporation (NYSE: ORB), one of the world's leading space technology companies, today announced that it is in final preparations to launch the company's Antares™ rocket carrying its Cygnus™ cargo spacecraft destined for the International Space Station (ISS). Pending completion of final vehicle testing and acceptable local weather conditions, the launch will take place on Wednesday, January 8, with lift-off scheduled for 1:32 p.m. EST, and will originate from NASA's Wallops Flight Facility in eastern Virginia. The Antares medium-class rocket will boost the Cygnus spacecraft into a targeted orbit of approximately 130 x 185 miles (210 x 298 kilometers) above the Earth, inclined at 51.6 degrees to the equator. Following in-orbit activation and testing after launch, Cygnus is slated to rendezvous and berth with the Space Station in the early morning hours on Sunday, January 12. Live coverage of the cargo supply mission will be available on NASA Television and at http://www.nasa.gov/ntv. "Orbital conducted a very successful demonstration mission of the Antares/Cygnus system last September, proving that the company can reliably carry out regularly scheduled operational missions to the ISS for NASA," said Mr. David W. Thompson, Orbital's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "Now our team is focused on executing another flawless launch and in-orbit operation to deliver much-needed supplies to the astronaut crew on board the Space Station." Under a $1.9 billion Commercial Resupply Services (CRS) contract with NASA, Orbital will use Antares and Cygnus to deliver up to 44,000 pounds (20,000 kilograms) of cargo to the ISS over eight missions through late 2016. For these missions, NASA will manifest a variety of essential items based on ISS program needs, including food, clothing, crew supplies, spare parts and equipment, and scientific experiments. For the first CRS mission, the Cygnus spacecraft is carrying 2,780 pounds (1,260 kilograms) of supplies to the Space Station, including science experiments to expand the research capability of the Expedition 38 crew members aboard the orbiting laboratory, along with crew provisions, spare parts and experiment hardware. Also aboard the flight are 23 student experiments that will involve more than 8,600 elementary, junior high and high school students from the United States and Canada. These experiments address life sciences topics ranging from vaccine effectiveness and amoeba reproduction to calcium loss in bones and liquid behavior in space. This mission, together with future Cygnus flights, will ensure a robust national capability to deliver critical research equipment and samples to orbit, significantly increasing NASA's ability to conduct new scientific investigations in the only laboratory in microgravity.

HTC M4 arriving in June with 'metal-alloy chassis'
0. phoneArena posted on 19 Apr 2013, 09:04
The HTC M4, HTC's second device that is expected to be a revision of the HTC One, will be made out of a metal-alloy chassis...
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here
1. menny07 (Posts: 89; Member since: 13 Dec 2012)
I thought they said only 1 flagship for 2013!!! D:
design looks like a rehash of One X+
or maybe, this is the mid-ranger.
4. tech2 (Posts: 3487; Member since: 26 Oct 2012)
I agree, the design looks a bit like the last year's One X and X+. I though this design would be inspired by HTC One. Its probably a mid-ranger
6. Doakie (Posts: 2227; Member since: 06 May 2009)
Yeah the front looks like an EVO 4G LTE, and the back looks like a One X.
27. rizevnarastek (Posts: 349; Member since: 06 Sep 2012)
M7 / One (high-end),
M4 (mid-range) and
M2 (low-end) are the phones for this year.
I hope that the final design for the M4 will be similar to HTC First but with a metal body. That would be so sweet.
33. WWThinker (Posts: 55; Member since: 10 Feb 2012)
HTC One chassis is so ugly, like a brick! The previous design, Butterfly, on the other hand, is a much much much better design: external slots for uSD and SIM, thinnner, lighter than HTC One. Whoever designed the chassis or authorize the manufacturing of the HTC One casing should be fired. What a shame! The ideal smartphone case should allow dual SIM and uSD card to be inserted without removing the battery, yet the thickness should be less than 8mm. Sony probably came close to the best case design. A lot of the decision makers at HTC are still living in their dream. Instead of leading the trend, telling the stories of the digital life of the future, they draw fat pay check, smoke pipes in places where they feel comfortable, threw away money like the investment in Beat Audio.
28. jcarrigan (unregistered)
remind me way too much of the droid incredible 4g lte. htc one actually looked nice, this looks like a car wreck
2. tech2 (Posts: 3487; Member since: 26 Oct 2012)
OMG........HTC One fans are gonna kill HTC. !!!!!!
7. amats69 (Posts: 1523; Member since: 12 Nov 2012)
on what reason?
14. tech2 (Posts: 3487; Member since: 26 Oct 2012)
because not only HTC said they wouldn't release 2 flagship this year but also by the fact that they would feel betrayed as releasing a whole new device to perfect the first one makes you one feel that he/she paid £500 (GBP) for a beta version.
16. amats69 (Posts: 1523; Member since: 12 Nov 2012)
nah did the article said it is the new HTC flagship?
19. fwinst (Posts: 64; Member since: 08 May 2010)
The article did say, "HTC's second device that is expected to be a revision of the HTC One," IF the statement is correct, this new phone would replace the HTC One. On another note, look thicker to anybody else? Bigger battery??
20. amats69 (Posts: 1523; Member since: 12 Nov 2012)
it is probably a mid ranger phone than a flagship device..looking at the phone itself it dont have the dual front speaker which is the best features of HTC One...i think if they revise the HTC One they will not go for a downgrade.
17. gwuhua1984 (Posts: 1237; Member since: 06 Mar 2012)
This is probably just a mid-range device
25. sintruder (Posts: 127; Member since: 30 Aug 2012)
for your information this is not a flagship product, hence the name is m4 and the one was m7.
26. htc_prep (Posts: 303; Member since: 09 Oct 2009)
not really there have been leaks for the m4 since the M1 has been rumored. they didnt say they would release one phone only. everyone needs a mid ranger.
3. xperiaDROID (banned) (Posts: 5629; Member since: 08 Mar 2013)
Hahaha.......look at the design of the camera! xD
22. Nikolas.Oliver (banned) (Posts: 1574; Member since: 01 Jul 2012)
plain ugly
31. xperiaDROID (banned) (Posts: 5629; Member since: 08 Mar 2013)
Agreed! xD
5. AndiAllDay (Posts: 14; Member since: 11 Apr 2013)
!! hope the screen size is "5" or more...with more battery life and key lime pie or jelly bean 4.2!!
8. tiara6918 (Posts: 2111; Member since: 26 Apr 2012)
And HTC,don't forget to advertise your phones if you don't want to repeat the same mistake last year.
9. amats69 (Posts: 1523; Member since: 12 Nov 2012)
LOL at the Camera and Flash position! HTC can you pls redo that?
29. lyndon420 (Posts: 5017; Member since: 11 Jul 2012)
What's wrong with their placement? What am I not seeing?
36. amats69 (Posts: 1523; Member since: 12 Nov 2012)
idk dude but it really looks weird to me..hahaha...
10. sharks (Posts: 236; Member since: 16 Feb 2013)
I'm really glad about the comeback of the 3-button configuration on the phone's front panel. I guess HTC did listen to the critics after releasing the HTC One. HTC did very few mistakes with the HTC One, and one of them was the exclusion of the home button and replacing the latter with useless HTC logo. The camera of the M4 doesn't look pretty at all, but maybe it's not from a design perspective, but rather to allow a better Ultrapixels camera, with higher MP than the 4 MP one of the HTC One.
Those of you who are already freaking out, this is not a new flagship. It's not going to be better specs-wise compared to the HTC One. Why? The codename for this phone is M4 and the codename for the HTC One was M7. Get it?
13. g2a5b0e (Posts: 3822; Member since: 08 Jun 2012)
The HTC One does have a home button. They just moved it from the center to the right side. They excluded a dedicated mutitasking button. I believe you have to double-tap the home button to access that feature now.
30. lyndon420 (Posts: 5017; Member since: 11 Jul 2012)
That multitasking / recent apps button was un-necessary anyway. A home button and back button is all that's needed for me anyway...I know what apps I've used recently.
32. g2a5b0e (Posts: 3822; Member since: 08 Jun 2012)
That's great that you know what apps you've used recently, but the function of the button is to provide quick access to those apps.
34. Taters (banned) (Posts: 6474; Member since: 28 Jan 2013)
Two buttons is fine. Two hard to reach buttons when using one hand is not.
Home button should be in the middle.
11. minhquan1 (Posts: 2; Member since: 19 Apr 2013)
is not the m4, that phone is htc e1 for china market ppl !!!!
12. amats69 (Posts: 1523; Member since: 12 Nov 2012)
i think this is a Mid Ranger phone...i just dont like the position of the flash and Camera..looks weird.LOL

Unicycle free mount !
After several weeks of almost getting the free mount I put the 24 inch Nimbus in the back of my van & drove about 25 mins across the city to Toyano Park which is home to the soccer & baseball stadium. It a pretty big park and has a covered area under the highway that passes by the stadiums so even if it's raining it would be possible to practice uni cycling. But as luck would have it the rain had stopped and even though the humidity was high it wasn't so hot. After finding a nice flat open area next to the baseball stadium I started practicing my free mount and after several failed attempts I finally got it which was awesome. Though out the afternoon I practiced some more and did several more free mounts and found that I didn't really need to hold the front of the saddle to be able to free mount. I did several 100mtr rides in the park after free mounting and it's really a great workout as my thighs were burning by the time I had finished 2 hours of practice. I can't consistently free mount as yet but I sure that will come with more practice. I took the above photos at the park on my phone that's why the picture quality is bad but you can get an idea of the size of the park.

My new bike
New bike , well half a bike but twice the fun, no chain, no gears to worry about etc. A new Nimbus 24 inch free style unicycle with the latest unicycle hub technology ISIS hub with 125mm Q- Ax cranks , the wheel has 48 spokes for extra strength and for a slightly overweight rider it's perfect. I haven't ridden a unicycle in 20 years but managed to do 50 mtrs down the street this morning . But it looks like I need to start from scratch again and learn the basics , next step learn to free mount instead of holding onto the neighbor's fence !. I spent about an hour & a half this morning learning to ride again and it was a good workout in this humid weather & cheaper than going to a sports gym !

Furumachi bicycle Alley Cat event
Well yesterday we were finally able to hold our Alley Cat cycle event , it was supposed to be last Sunday but due to heavy rain in was put off till yesterday. We had 24 riders of all ages , the youngest member was 3 year old Kato kun on the back of his Dads bicycle. The winner completed the 12 checkpoints in about an hour on a Fuji fixie but the overall winner was a guy on a red classic style Mama chari who managed to complete the entire course and all his answers were correct , he won the top prize of a Knog messenger bag , he was most surprised that he had won the event. Everybody had a great time and many riders stayed on at "The Local " a NZ bar for the after party. Pictured above are a few photos I took yesterday .

Indianapolis, IN (PressExposure) July 16, 2013 -- National Inventory Certification Association (NICA) recently announced, "As a group of entrepreneurs in a variety of fields of interest, we have come to the decision that quality certification requires a focus and understanding from professionals embedded in this industry. We are pleased to announce that Mike and Cindy Hartman, founders of Nationwide Inventory Professionals, have, for good and valuable consideration, taken ownership and control of the National Inventory Certification Association."
The announcement continues, "The inventory industry is growing, and new leadership is required to take this certification program to the next level. Focus, commitment, and an understanding of the industry are imperative. Research was conducted to ensure that the owners of the National Inventory Certification Association had proven business practices that would enable this growth to continue along with the industry. Nationwide Inventory Professionals includes certification as a component of the business package; their belief in the importance and benefits of certification are evident. This is a natural fit for NICA and the Hartmans, and we are confident that we are placing NICA in good and competent hands."
According to Johanna Curtiss, CEO of The Inventory Institute, the majority of inventory service companies are independent business owners, amounting to approximately 150 verified operating businesses throughout the United States. With this in mind, now is the perfect time to have the expertise of the Hartmans' to guide the future direction of NICA. The transition will be completed by July 31, 2013.
The National Inventory Certification Association (NICA) provides a certification program for those in the asset inventory sector. Designation as a Certified Inventory Specialist confirms an understanding of the industry, agrees to conduct business in an ethical and professional manner, and will abide by the National Inventory Certification Association Code of Ethics. The team the Hartmans have assembled to head up this separate entity is well experienced in the asset inventory industry.

Umm..Bad? If someone you're not aware of kills you, what does it matter how they defeated you? You obviously wouldn't have countered them anyways.
If someone you see kills you, what does this add?
If you have a good angle on another spot which they're not aware of, I don't see any benefits which make giving away position even worth considering...
If information was as vital as it is in BFBC2, killcam would be nice. But information is always there.

30-30 win
Jus bought a 30-30 and well the ammo isn't cheap so I'm considering reloading how cheap could I make it for jus to see if it's wroth it
Since cases last well over 50 shots, I'll say about 36 cents a cartridge using the cheapest jacketed bullets I can find. If you cast your own bullets a lot cheaper.... not including the initial cost of press, dies and whatnot.
I don't buy in bulk which would make the cost even less expensive.
I don't reload to make it less expensive, I handload to make ammo tuned specifically for my rifles, being less expensive is a plus.
Have you used nickel cases? How many shoots can I get outta them
I can`t reload .30 WCF any cheaper than I can buy them already made up, but I do.............You can buy em about as cheap or cheaper than reloading them.

61 - 59 Final
Smith hits game-winning shot as Louisville edges No. 13 MarquetteFeb 18, 2007 - 5:38 AM MILWAUKEE (Ticker) -- What a homecoming for freshman Jerry Smith.
Smith scored all nine of his points from 3-point range, including the game-winning shot as time expired, lifting Louisville to a 61-59 triumph over No. 13 Marquette in a Big East Conference battle.
Edgar Sosa scored 15 points and Derrick Carter added 14 for the Cardinals (19-8, 9-4 Big East), who picked up their second straight win over a ranked foe after beating seventh-ranked Pittsburgh, 66-53, on Monday.
"Three weeks ago I tried to say there was so much basketball left to be played and anything can happen," Louisville coach Rick Pitino said.
Marquette's Jerel McNeal netted three of his 18 points with a shot from the arc, sparking a 10-5 surge for a 57-50 lead with 3:36 remaining.
However, Smith connected on two 3-pointers and Sosa scored on a driving layup during an 8-1 run, tying the game at 58-58 with 18 seconds left.
Dominic James had a chance to give the Golden Eagles (21-7, 8-5) a two-point advantage, but split a pair of foul shots 12 seconds later, setting up Smith's heroics.
"It is a tough loss," said James, who scored nine points. "We got out in front but it wasn't far enough."
"I think it is a missed opportunity anytime you have a hold on a game like that," McNeal said. "Give credit to those guys, as they played well down the stretch."
The Golden Eagles shot just 62 percent (15-of-24) from the free-throw line.
"The free throw is an Achilles heal at times," Marquette coach Tom Crean said. "(Saturday) we missed some. The last thing we are going to do is quit attacking the basket and trying to get to the free-throw line."
Sosa raced the ball up court and found Smith - a native of nearby Wauwatosa - for a long 3-pointer just before the buzzer sounded.
"I told the guys you have to make one pass when you are coming down with five seconds," Pitino said. "We tried to get Jerry a shot in the corner. We have had unbelievable finishes here."
"He (Smith) was in the right place at the right time," Crean said. "I don't know if it was drawn up or not. We didn't have a hand up like we would have liked."
The Golden Eagles have dropped three consecutive games since a season-tying eight-game undefeated streak. It's the first three-game slide for the season.
"We need to continue to try and stay positive and get the next win," James said.

Target: Vernon "Hugh" Bowman
Goal: Thank a 75-year old soybean farmer from Indiana for continuing to appeal a case in which the GMO giant Monsanto attempts to sue him for patent infringement.
In 1981, the Supreme Court (controversially) ruled that living organisms could be patented. Since then, the massive GMO company Monsanto has considered not only its first-generation seeds as part of its patent, but also its second-generation and third-generation seeds. With its tremendous money and resources, Monsanto works as an aggressive monopoly which stands to drive local farmers out of business.
Now, Monsanto is suing 75-year old soybean farmer Vernon Bowman of Indiana for infringing on patent rights. Bowman has appealed this case all the way to the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court is now hearing the case of Bowman v. Monsanto, and its decision could have drastic effects for Monsanto. The Court might even review and revise the previous 1981 ruling on the matter of life forms as patented property.
Bowman had this to say: "Monsanto should not be able, just because they've got millions and millions of dollars to spend on legal fees, to try to terrify farmers into making them obey their agreements by massive force and threats." Indeed, critics of Monsanto have long argued that the company maintains a monopoly on food resources by doing precisely this. Generally, in the nation's history, food products such as those modified and patented by Monsanto have been understood to be commodities which are too important to human sustenance for any one company to monopolize. The current patent precedent set by the 1981 Supreme Court ruling creates an environment which is hostile to agriculture and especially to local farmers. Sign this petition to thank Mr. Bowman for his courageous stance against big industry.
Dear Mr. Bowman,
I am writing to thank you for the stance you have taken against Monsanto's attempt to sue you, and for appealing the case all the way to the Supreme Court. Because of your case, the Supreme Court may review and revise its previous opinion that life forms can be subject to patents. Over the years, Monsanto has been aided in its monopoly status by government entities, and it has been met with no serious investigations or challenges.
Your case has the potential to change this. In not backing down despite the pressure you have received, you have set a precedent and proved yourself a formidable ally of the common man, the common worker, and local agriculture. You are doing the right thing and standing by your convictions. Down the road, many other farmers may owe you their gratitude as well. I wish you good luck as the Supreme Court continues to hear your case.
[Your Name Here]

Stop Trading, 2011 Is Already Over
This is the time of the year for trivial pursuits. Currency traders are planning lunches with brokers and going over their holiday gift lists checking them twice to make sure they didn't miss anyone.
They don't have time to figure out who Kim Jong Eun is, or to handicap the odds of Standard & Poor's pulling the trigger on its euro zone ratings threat, or even to figure what exactly European Central Bank President Mario Draghi is saying today.
Trading–actual trading–is over for the year, and that's the best explanation I can give for why currencies are so rangebound and uninteresting on a Monday that's otherwise packed with news and geopolitical risks.

Is it possible to authorize and capture my customer's credit card with Jotform?Asked by guest_22894332171049 on October 16, 2012 at 12:04 PM
I'm looking to sell a simple product using a form and want to be able to authorize my customer's credit card for the specified amount and then charge the card when the product is ready for shipment. Is this possible using Jotform and a supported payment gateway?
Yes , that is possible. We have several payment gateways that are ready to be integrated into a Jotform
If you want to accept credit cards into your site, you could for example, use Paypal Pro. You would need to open a Pro account to use it.
You can also use our recently added payment gateway called Stripe. There are also other options such as Authorize.net , Google Checkout, etc.
Please take a look at these options under the Payment tools menu and let us know if you need further assistance
I was wondering which of those payment gateways allow authorize and capture functionility with Jotform? I love Stripe, but I'm almost positive they don't offer authorize and capture. Also, I know PayPal offers authorize and capture, but I need to know if this feature is integrated with Jotform. Thanks!
JotForm Support
I was wondering which of those payment gateways allow authorize and capture functionility with Jotform?
- Most of our payment integration allows credit card payments, users can always select which method would they prefer to use. Paypal and Paypal Pro, Stripe and the rest will do.
Also, I know PayPal offers authorize and capture, but I need to know if this feature is integrated with Jotform.
- Yes, we have Paypal integration.
Can I use Paypal AUTHORIZATION & CAPTURE (https://cms.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/?cmd=_render-content&content_ID=developer/e_howto_html_authcapture) with Jotform?
JotForm Support
I'm sorry, my mistake. Thank you for giving us the this guide about Paypal Authorization and Capture.
I will try to consult this to our developers if this is possible or not. We'll update you sooner.
JotForm Founder
Unfortunately no, it is not possible to authorize/capture credit cards with any of our payment integrations. They all assume you will charge the card at the time of the form completion.

In this article, Ralph Moulang, Aurecon's Principal Overhead Wiring Engineer, discusses how cities can integrate new and existing light rail systems into the urban environment while meeting the requirement for continuous uninterrupted tractive power supply for electrified rail systems.
They have remained unchanged, mainly as a result of their relative simplicity and concomitant reliability. They suffer, though, because they represent mature technology in a rapidly modernising urban environment.
The question that I hear more often is: how do we integrate new and existing light rail systems that are safe, reliable and visually enhancing into the urban environment, while meeting the basic technical requirement for any electrified rail system, which is the availability of a continuous uninterrupted tractive power supply?
A simple Internet search will reveal several futuristic solutions to this issue; however, the problem with the future is that is keeps turning into the present. Fortunately, some of these systems are available now and can be grouped according to the method by which they transfer traction power to the LRV and from the LRV to the traction motors:
This system comprises a continuous primary circuit formed from power cables buried between the rails, producing a strong magnetic field. A power receiver system (coils) is mounted under the LRV, which converts the magnetic field to electrical energy.
The ground-level components are not visible and are unaffected by weather. As there is no direct contact between the power source and the LRV, the traction components are not subject to wear. This system has been employed by Bombardier as part of their PRIMOVE system, which features 8-meter cable conduits powered only when the LRV is present, making it safe for pedestrians and other vehicles and mitigating the effects of EMC/ EMI emissions.
This system is similar to a traditional ground-level conductor system, as traction power is transmitted along a segmented conductor rail embedded between the rails and transferred to the LRV via a collector shoe.
The difference and key feature of the segmented system is that each segment is energised and de-energised, as the LRV moves along the track, thereby transferring continuous power only where required. The process is made possible by automated sequential switching of the energised segment.
As this system relies on ground-based contact, it is susceptible to adverse weather conditions, including standing water, ice and snow as well as natural (sand and leaves) and man-made contaminants.
Both Ansaldo STS's TramWave and Alstom's APS system make use of this principle.
The basic principle is an LRV fitted with a self-contained power source capable of operating a normal service with only short and infrequent recharge requirements. Thus, the LRV can operate in all environments, since adverse weather or other topographical features shouldn't inhibit power transfer.
Although huge advances in capacitor and battery technology have been made in recent years, achieving a balance between range and weight remains the key challenge, as it is with the private electric vehicle sector.
For this reason, although many LRVs already make use of on-board storage as part of their system, few employ the principle as the sole means of providing power to the traction motors. One of the advantages, though, of adopting an LRV fitted with this technology is that as the power unit efficiency increases, the old unit can be replaced without replacing the LRV.
The common feature of these systems is that recharge can occur at stations or while the LRV is running on traditional OCL, which is the basis of the hybrid approach, whereby a traditional LRV, with standard pantograph, is retrofitted with an on-board storage system.
Does this mean overhead wires will be a thing of the past on light rapid transit (LRT) systems?
That depends upon several factors, not the least of them being funding. The challenge to infrastructure owners and operators, alike, is to find the right system solution to suit their particular requirements.
This presents an opportunity for competent engineering consultancies to provide prospective clients with timely advice and impartial recommendations at the future-proofing and planning stages, through to the ability to conduct detailed comparative analysis and system design. This is particularly important when one realises that most of these system solutions are proprietary and would require a long-term commitment to a single supplier.
A few examples of practical applications of some of these alternative technologies are:
These systems represent the latest technology, in terms of traction distribution for LRVs. And, as is the case with all new technology, if it proves to be effective, costs will reduce, reliability will increase, and we can look forward to a safer, more visually attractive public transport system.

World news story
Are you a South African, Swaziland or Lesotho national intending to transit via the UK?
- From:
- British High Commission Pretoria
- Part of:
- South Africa, Lesotho, and Swaziland
- Published:
- 6 November 2014
This was published under the 2010 to 2015 Conservative and Liberal Democrat coalition government
From 1 December 2014 changes come into effect and the list of exemption documents that can be used in place of a direct airside transit visa will be increased.
The United Kingdom has made changes recently to its transit visa policy, which is positive news for South African, Swaziland and Lesotho nationals. The direct airside transit visa fee was reduced to £30 in October this year, and its routine validity has been extended to two years.
From 1 December 2014 further changes come into effect and the list of exemption documents that can be used in place of a direct airside transit visa will be increased. For airside transit, holders of Australian, Canadian, New Zealand and United States of America visas will no longer be required to be en route to those countries in order to transit the UK visa free. South African, Swaziland and Lesotho nationals who hold a valid visa for either Australia, Canada, New Zealand or the United States of America will now be able to use them to transit airside via the UK to anywhere in the world without obtaining a direct airside transit visa to the UK.
To summarise:
From 1 December 2014, if you intend to transit the UK en route to another country, and will be arriving and leaving (by air) from the same UK airport, without passing through UK immigration controls, you must;
- Apply for a Direct Airside Transit Visa
Fulfil all of the following criteria:
you arrive and depart by air from the same UK airport and on the same day to another country outside the Common Travel Area1
you are properly documented for your onward destination
AND you hold a valid exemption document in accordance with one of the following criteria:
a residence permit or visa which allows entry to Australia, Canada, New Zealand or the United States of America, regardless of your route and final destination
an EEA or Swiss category D visa or residence permit, regardless of your route and final destination
an Irish biometric visa, regardless of your route and final destination.
The term 'transit' refers to passengers who are passing through the UK en route to another country. Airside Transit refers to passengers catching an onward flight from the same airport at which they arrived without passing through UK immigration.
Landside Transit refers to passengers who arrive at one airport but are catching an onward flight from another UK airport, or who have to pass through UK immigration to collect and re-check baggage before their onward journey, and therefore need to enter the UK. Different rules apply to Landside Transit where en route restrictions do apply to the exemption document criteria. More information can be found at www.gov.uk/transit-visa.
You do not require a direct airside transit visa if you already hold a valid UK visa to enter the UK.
1 The Common Travel Area is a travel zone that comprises the United Kingdom, Channel Islands, Isle of Man and Republic of Ireland.

Richmond's recent dominance over Brisbane has continued with the Tigers scoring a comfortable 79-point win in a scrappy affair at the Gabba on Saturday night.
In the battle of the big cats, the Tigers won 21.11 (137) to 8.10 (58) for their eighth-straight victory over the Lions, a record stretching back to round seven, 2009.
Looking to atone for their 82-point loss to North Melbourne last weekend, the Lions never looked in the contest and despite both sides having similar numbers in contested possessions, inside 50s, handballs and clearances, a lack of disposal efficiency and marks inside 50 cost the Lions dearly.
Trent Cotchin (37 disposals) and Bachar Houli (32 disposals) led the way for the Tigers with the Lions assisted by the two Daynes – with Beams and Zorko earning 35 and 27 disposals respectively.
There were seven multiple goal-scorers for the Tigers – with Jack Riewoldt booting four majors – while Zorko booted two goals for the Lions.
Leading by 24 points at halftime, two goals to Riewoldt and one to Nathan Gordon stretched Richmond's advantage to 41 points midway through the third term – the visitors kicking six unanswered goals since Michael Paparone's major inside the opening minute of the second term.
Goals to Zorko and debutant Harris Andrews briefly stopped the rot, until two goals inside five minutes to Shaun Grigg extended the Tigers' lead to 42 points at three-quarter time.
Dustin Martin opened Richmond's account in the final term before goals to Brisbane's James Aish and Josh Green were cancelled out by Gordon and Kamdyn McIntosh's second goals.
The Tigers eventually kicked away with further goals to Riewoldt, Ben Griffiths, Shane Edwards and substitute Sam Lloyd, to see the visitors roar back into the top-eight in front of a crowd of 22,441.
The only sour note for the Tigers was a calf injury to Chris Knights midway through the second quarter.
The Tigers can now look ahead to next Friday's match against the Demons while the Lions will host the Eagles.
