Like 50 to 100 other normally desk-bound day-shift police officers, Michael H. Hilliard showed up for the 5:39 roll call yesterday afternoon and was soon dispatched to the streets.
''We've shut down the administrative offices for 30 days,'' said Officer Hilliard, an administrative officer. ''We have 296 homicides, and the goal is to complete the year with no more.''
Standing before the men and women, Lieut. Donald E. Healy urged them to go after the drug dealers, who are responsible for three-quarters of those homicides. ''Shut them down and bring them in.''
With officer clerks and computer operators assisting regular officers assigned to high-crime areas, the department is hitting the streets, following the threads that lead from street-corner questionings to arrests for sales of $10 rocks of crack cocaine to whatever it is that makes this city one of the nation's most murderous.
Baltimore, like other cities around the nation, has experienced a decline in crime. But throughout the 1990's, this city has defied the trend in one category of violent crime: homicide. Throughout the 1990's, it has recorded 304 to 353 homicides a year, three-quarters of them drug-related.Continue reading the main story
Federal crime statistics show the Baltimore area, with 2.5 million residents, with a rate of 14.2 killings last year for every 100,000 residents. The rate is far above those of most other big cities, including New York and its suburbs, where the rate last year was 9.3.
So early last week, Police Commissioner Thomas C. Frazier, who previously assigned his troops more overtime during the Christmas shopping season, started what he called an ''enhanced holiday deployment.'' He has shut down most administrative work for a month and assigned desk-bound officers to the streets and directed the regulars to concentrate on the high-crime areas.
''We're going to make every effort we can to bring in the crime rate as low as we can,'' Commissioner Frazier said. ''We're bringing in everyone who we can wring out of a non-enforcement assignment. I did 15 hours yesterday, and I will be on the street tonight.''
But even with the special deployment, the prospects of keeping the number of homicides under 300, the department's goal, are grim. Through October, it recorded 259 homicides, 5 more than by the same time last year, when 310 were recorded for the full year. Lately, the pace has continued, with a homicide a day.
On Monday, the department reported No. 295. A man with multiple stab wounds was found partly covered with leaves in the back of a row house. On Tuesday, a woman in the trunk of a car that had been intentionally set on fire became No. 296. Thirty minutes after midnight today, No. 297, a man in his late 20's, was found shot in the back and sprawled on a sidewalk.
After roll call, Officers Warren Smith and Tim Palmer, each married, each father of one child, both sinewy, proud members of Baltimore's SWAT team, hurried off in their new unmarked cruiser. They were given a single assignment, to seek out the furtive gestures and quick transactions of drug dealing.
Twice tonight, with Officer Smith at the wheel, they turned their vehicle into a rocket of siren and light. But mostly they wove their way through the desolate streets of largely boarded-up row houses.
''Time out!'' they heard someone shout from a cluster of six people gathered at a corner as the well-recognized white Ford Crown Victoria approached. The six, indistinguishable by sex or age in their loose-fitting, hooded parkas, ambled off, hands in pockets. The officers left them alone.
The officers headed across North Avenue and into the dark side streets. A woman about 50 crossed in front of them.
''What you got in your pocket?'' Officer Smith asked, getting out of the car with Officer Palmer.
''Nothing,'' she told them. Nonchalantly, she said she was on her way to buy something.
''Who are you dealing with?'' Officer Smith asked
''Heavy,'' she replied, a man named Heavy. Heavy is nowhere around. The officers made note of his name and moved on.
They spotted a group outside a corner store. Corner stores -- delis, take-out food stores, convenience stores -- are the only commercial establishments along the streets off the thoroughfares, like North and Pennsylvania Avenues.
''My pet peeve is the corner store,'' Officer Smith said. ''The stores give them an excuse to be on the corner. If you see people in the store, they're not buying anything.''
They told one cluster of young men to pull up their shirts, a way to find if they were carrying guns. Or they called, ''Show me your hands,'' a way of finding drugs. ''You look for somebody making a quick movement,'' Officer Palmer said.
The law requires the police to ask before frisking anyone, but usually permission is granted.
In front of a store on a corner on Edmonson Avenue, they spotted a transaction. Slowly, Officer Smith followed one of the people onto a side street. He turned on his search light and pulled up to a young woman in gray sweat pants, a blue parka and a gray knit hat.
Frightened, just 17, she held a marijuana cigar, evidently not having learned to surreptitiously let it drop. They stood near a gray brick wall with ''R.I.P'' scrawled on it and the names Jeneen, Fade, Mark, Sean, Tish, Lance, Oscar and Reggie -- all slain.
Officer Palmer asked what she was handing the man at the corner. ''I didn't give him nothing,'' she said, still holding the cigar. ''Fifty cents. I swear I gave him 50 cents.''
They took the cigar and asked to go through her pockets. They found two tiny bags of marijuana and called a patrol wagon to bring her in.
After she was booked and briefed, she smiled easily and innocently, saying she is in the 10th grade, wants to be a lawyer or a basketball player and works in a Burger King part time. She will be held in a cell block for juveniles until her mother comes to get her.
''She's still reachable,'' Officer Palmer said. ''I'd rather lock up the adult who sold it to her.''
Still, she could be a link in the chain that leads to Baltimore's many homicides. As part of her debriefing, and those of the 10 other people arrested in the night, Detective Irvin Bradley of the homicide squad, suggested, without promising, that in return for leniency in court, they steer him to the guns and the dealers.
Detective Bradley is particularly interested in leads to ''stick-up boys.''
''They rob the drug dealers,'' he said. ''These drug dealers are not going to call the police and say, 'He stuck me up.' They handle it themselves, and the way they handle it is to kill them.''
He also wants locations of ''stash houses,'' places near the sites of their sales where dealers hide guns so they won't be caught with them and can still get to them. By late last night, he said he had collected the addresses of four.Continue reading the main story

Well E3 came and now its done,so I thought that it would be fun to do my own little E3 related blogs.I'll keep it simple I'll just talk about what I thought were the pro's and the con's I hope you guys enjoy it.
PS4 price
My biggest highlight for E3 was the fact that I will be able to afford a PS4.I'm a big Sony fan and one of the things that really pissed me off about the PS3 was the fact that I could not buy one for about two years so thankfully thats not the case this time around.
Sony is still supporting the Ps3
I was so happy to see that Sony had some big games still planned for the Ps3 thats good for me because I wont be buying a Ps4 till some time next year.GT6,THe Puppeteer,Rain and Beyond Two Souls all look fantastic and I cant wait to play them.
Wii U get's games
I bought a Wii U with my income tax this year and like many of you I really haven't got the chance to really enjoy it just because there's really nothing out for it.But thats going to change stating in August the Wii U will have at least one to two big exclusive's released each month and its going to have some big 3rd party games released to like Batman,Splinter Cell and Deus Ex.
Fable anniversary
360 were pretty much non existent at E3 except one Fable Anniversary. I loved the first game and its going to be great to see how well it looks with new visuals.
A whole bunch of next games coming
It doesn't matter if you buy a Xbox One or Ps4 both consoles have a lot of games coming to them.Just a few games I'm looking forward to are The Witcher 3,Killzone Shadow Fall,Battlefield 4,inFAMOUS SS,Destiny,Titanfall,Thief and Sunset Overdrive thats just to name a few .
Xbox One price
500 bucks is just a tad bit to steep for me I wont be getting a Xbone for sometime.
No Metroid
I like DKC but man I was really hoping Retro was going to make another Metroid.
No price drop for Vita
I really want a Vita I just don't have the money at the moment I wish it would have got a price drop.
My 10 favorite games of E3
10. Sunset Over Drive
I love Insomniac games and I'm really interested in seeing what they do next.
9.Super Smash Bros Wii U/3DS
I spent hours upon hours with Brawl lol I imagine I'll do it all over again with these two.
8.Killzone Shadow Fall
KZ one of my favorite Sony series I cant wait to see were GG goes next.
7.inFAMOUS SS
This looks like its going to be the first PS4 killer app.
6.Mario Kart 8
I love MK and it looks like Nintendo it finally trying something new I cant wait to play it.
5.The Puppeteer
I've been following Puppeteer for sometime now and it just keeps getting better.
4.THe Wonderful 101
Hideki Kamiya is a mastermind and the Wonderful 101 just looks better and better...man I wish it was Sep.
3.Battlefield 4
BF4 blew me away at the MS press Conference its pretty much everything I want in a next gen game.
I've dumped hours upon hours into LittleBigPlanet and Media Molecule next little masterpiece looks bloody amazing.
1.The Witcher 3
At every E3 I'm always wishing that one game will blow me away and this year it was The Witcher 3, it truly looks like a next gen game and I cant wait to buy it for the Ps4.
Well everyone thanks for reading so what did you think of E3?

about the convection heat transfer coefficient for air conditioning room simuation
I am simulating the air conditioning room. As for the wall boundary condition, I use the interior wall temperature and convection heat transfer coefficient h (or wall function). For the convection heat transfer coefficient h (or wall function), Normally, there are following choices:
(1) h=(k/x)*0.0296Re^0.8*Pr^(1/3) which comes from the plate theory;
(2) based on the experiment,hadj,cell=[ hMACA*(Tsurface-Treference)]/( Tsurface-Tadj,cell) in which, hMACA is the algorithm calculates convection coefficients for all surfaces based on surface temperature and the appropriate reference temperatures.
(3) wall function
So I want to know which choice is better for the air conditioning room simulation?

Admiring two Receptionist
I'm commenting on the last review I have also been a patient of Dr. Doucet for many years he is a wonderful Doctor. I have to disagree with the last person comment those receptionist are great. The two of them have been running that office by themselves. They have been short handed for a while now and we as patients must understand the stress the have. I give both receptionists 2 thumbs u this also includes Dr. Doucet so put the shoe on your foot minus Dr Picard who is no longer there and the nurse Ros who is out sick just imagine what those girls are going through .

what went wrong?
dr.doucet is an awsome doctor very caring and concerned and takes time to explain your condition\s so that you completely understand.. Although he is great his staff mainly two ladys at front desk are very rude and treats patients as if they were a bother to them and just completely opposite from the doc , they do NOT show any type of care or concern for your well being..:-( so sad such a good thorough and professional doc like d.doucet could have such ugly rude receptionist. ..

This year, I've had nine different hairstyles.
Nine. That's like one new look per month. Thankfully, this latest "new look" is just a little trim, giving my hair some breathing room in between bleach and dye jobs. To be honest, I almost dyed my hair Blood Red on Sunday; I found out that afternoon that this year's UAAP cheer dance champs— the UP Pep Squad— all bleached their hair blonde for the competition. I thought I was just imagining getting more looks/glances than usual while standing along Katipunan!
Anyway, I didn't have time to go Blood Red and I decided to try to keep the blonde until October for my Halloween costume. I did get about three inches chopped off and had a much needed hot oil (it didn't do much, considering how fried my hair is). I think I need to get the ends thinned a bit with a razor since it tends to get poofy as the day progresses.
If I look miserable, it's because I am. I'm tired and still have a few things left to do before I fly off tomorrow night. Exhaustion always makes me feel a bit blue.

Other than citrus fruits, much of our produce relies heavily on the natural work of bees to ensure proper pollination. Without these little black and yellow friends, our supermarket produce isles would look pretty grim, and lacking in some of our favorites like apples, peppers, strawberries, lemons, cashews and even walnuts among many others.
When Vancouver is the destination, the Wedgewood Hotel & Spa is often the property of choice for discerning travelers. This five-diamond award-winning property is a member of the Relais & Châteaux Hotel Group which is privately owned and operated by the Greek Skalbania family. The hotel combines the finest service, accommodations, amenities and surroundings to make for a personalized, professional stay, with the essence of intimate European traditions.
Anyone visiting Vancouver will recognize the iconic sails of Canada Place that herald the entry to the cruise port, convention center and the Pan Pacific Hotel. Those staying at the property will be wowed again and again by the breathtaking views of mountains, forests, islands, sailboats, seaplanes, sunsets and architectural landmarks all joined at this meeting point. The hotel is just minutes away from all the sights, sounds, smells and tastes of this vibrant city.
Four Seasons Toronto may have only opened a year ago, but it has already made a very big impression on the travel industry. It is currently the first and only hotel in Canada to hold both the Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star rating and the AAA Five Diamond award.
As the largest and most populated city in Canada, Toronto is a bustling financial and entertainment destination in Ontario. From the famous CN Tower to exciting amusement parks, scenic cobblestone beaches, world-class shopping and museums, there's something for every traveler in this Canadian capital.
The structure of a vacation sounds like an oxymoron, as structure and improvisation (that word usually defining a great vacation) seem such like such opposing concepts. But usually, there is organization to a vacation, especially if you rent from a vacation rental firm as a part of a vacation club. I wrote about Demeure, an online travel provider that operates its own travel marketplace, four years ago. I thought then, as now, that CEO and founder Peter Schwartz's vacation concepts are unique to the field, as they have substantial social and philosophical roots.
More reasons to go to Vegas, eh? Air Canada rouge is making it easier for our neighbors to the north to get to Sin City with service now running from Toronto directly to the Strip. On October 27, 2013, ten flights per week were added to the winter 2013-2014 season with 264 seats on each.
I hear it again. To an ear unaccustomed to this sound, it is so haunting. It is the call of the loon, reverberating on the clear, cerulean waters of Lake Rosseau, part of the District of Muskoka, about two or three hour drive north of Toronto, Ontario. I remember hearing this sound years before, on a lake of my childhood, and once its haunting timbre is heard, it is impossible to forget: very like the wistful sounds of the Hardanger fiddle, played only by a few old men, along the fjords of southern Norway. The loon sound, like the unique Norwegian string instrument, has pensive resonance, creating a landscape of memory that only sounds of the past exude.
Close your eyes and imagine winding cobblestone streets, a collection of world-class museums, sidewalk cafes serving crepes and croissants and French spoken everywhere. If your imagination takes you to Paris, you would be wrong.

Maccarone joins Parma
By Nadia Carminati
Last Updated: 01/01/70 1:00am
Middlesbrough striker Massimo Maccarone has joined Parma on loan for the season.Middlesbrough striker Massimo Maccarone has confirmed to skysports.com that he has joined Parma on loan for the season.
The Italian international has finally moved back to his homeland after Parma agreed a deal with Boro.
"I'm happy to have joined Parma," Maccarone told skysports.com.
Maccarone will be reunited with his former Empoli coach Silvio Baldini at The Ennio Tardini.
"I'm happy about this, because I find again my former coach. But I'm happy because there I can meet again a few of my former Empoli team-mates."
With his return to his homeland, Maccarone could now seal his place back in the Italian squad.
"The national team? I need to get a place by working hard," he said.
"But before that I must think about playing in a good way at Parma, where I'll arrive on Thursday."

PASADENA, Calif. -- It was, at best, a coincidence.
It was, at worst, entirely too appropriate.
At the start of the fourth quarter Saturday night, with UCLA trailing Stanford by four touchdowns and swallowing hard on an ugly shutout, the Bruins' band began playing what many in the half-full Rose Bowl had started thinking.
"We're not gonna take it. No, we ain't gonna take it. Oh, we're not gonna take it ... anymore."
Two games into the 2010 season, Rick Neuheisel's UCLA Bruins already seem twisted into a frustrating knot.
Their bright spots are medium gains off busted running plays. Their moral victories are yielding field goals instead of touchdowns.
"We've got to find something we're capable of doing, that's for sure," UCLA offensive coordinator Norm Chow said after the Bruins' 35-0 loss.
"It was embarrassing."
Chow is a proud man and one of the brightest offensive minds of his generation. Neuheisel has called plays and developed quarterbacks in the NFL.
But after this game, both men seemed as down as I've seen them in the past two seasons.
"It's more frustrating than you know," Neuheisel said. "Tonight was an offensive disaster. There is no other way to say it. We've got to look ourselves in the mirror and accept that."
By the end of his news conference, Neuheisel was able to strike a few positive notes. He talked of rolling up his sleeves and finding solutions, of the young players who "are shell-shocked right now, but have to snap out of it and get back to work."
But his disappointment with the way his team has started this season was too much to conceal.
Across town, Lane Kiffin's USC Trojans were eking out a win over a Virginia team they would've destroyed a few years ago. The Coliseum was three-quarters full for a home opener. And the stain of a scandal that has tarnished Pete Carroll's best years is still spreading.
The stage in this town was UCLA's for the taking. But so far, the Bruins have seized nothing.
Worse, they have been boring.
"We have been a more efficient running team," Neuheisel said. "But somewhere in that, we have lost the ability to throw the football efficiently. It isn't getting done."
The statistics are frightening. UCLA gained just 81 yards passing Saturday night. Quarterback Kevin Prince's longest completion of the night was an interception caught by Stanford's Richard Sherman at the Cardinal 2-yard line.
Aside from a missed 49-yard field goal by All-American kicker Kai Forbath, that was as close as UCLA came to scoring all night.
On several occasions, the 56,931 bothered to boo UCLA's ineptitude. For most of the night, it hardly seemed worth it.
The Bruins' issues are too vast. Their passing game is off-kilter, their defense is suspect. They've made too many avoidable mistakes. Their best players are probably freshmen and sophomores.
Still, Neuheisel and Chow have recruited well in their time in Westwood. UCLA has talent. But that talent is still young and undeveloped.
In time, running backs Malcolm Jones and Anthony Barr will be stars. Right now, they are simply freshmen who are slowly earning their coaches' trust.
"We're a really young team. A lot of true freshmen are playing this year," Jones said. "But I wanted to come here and play as early as I can to start helping the team."
That's not necessarily a bad thing. Carroll's best teams at USC popularized the practice of playing true freshmen who were ready to play.
The difference here is that UCLA has been forced to rely on its young players, not all of whom are actually ready to play.
There are a lot of reasons it's come to this: the lack of talent left behind by former head coach Karl Dorrell's staff, the rash of injuries UCLA suffered in fall practice.
Neuheisel and Chow have to take some of the blame for playing conservatively the past two seasons, valuing wins over player development.
Last season they chose to start redshirt senior Chane Moline over Johnathan Franklin in the EagleBank Bowl win over Temple, as seven wins and a trophy seemingly were the most important things at the time.
Franklin had a problem with fumbling the ball. Fine.
But in the first two games this season, the redshirt sophomore has been one of the only Bruins to provide some sort of spark or hope. And you can't help but wonder whether he'd be further along if he'd had more chances last year.
On Saturday, Franklin led UCLA with 73 yards rushing on 11 carries. And yet, he's not the starting tailback. Junior Derrick Coleman is.
Whatever the causes -- and there are many -- UCLA finds itself in an uncomfortable position. Staring into a mirror instead of the future, it's forced to confront an ugly reality instead of what could be.

Further information Launched in October 2010 as a free mobile app, Instagram is one of the most popular social networks worldwide. Instagram enables its users to take pictures and videos, and then share them either publicly or privately through the app, as well as through a variety of other social networking platforms. In September 2012, Facebook acquired the media-sharing service for 1 billion U.S. dollars. Due to the strong impact of its curated visual content, Instagram has become a go-to advertising platform for brands, with auto, fashion, and beauty brands ranking first among Instagram adoption. The most popular beauty brands on Instagram include MAC Cosmetics, Sephora, and Benefit. In 2016, 44 percent of marketers from an annual industry survey were using Instagram to market their business, with 57 percent of respondents indicating that their Instagram usage would increase in the near future.
Despite the website's strong marketing and advertising potential, it still accounts for less than a percent of global mobile advertising revenues. According to experts, the photo sharing app is set to generate 3.2 billion U.S. dollars in global revenues in 2016 and reach 9.5 billion U.S. dollars in 2021.

Creating dependent Menus using database module
William Lu has shared another beautiful presentation with the whole Moodle community on the Moodle.net site about usage of the database module to create the dependent menus.
Sometimes, when you collect information with a 'Database form' in Moodle, the 'Add entry'
page shows many fields. If this includes some non-compulsory fields, then you can use a dependent menu to reveal relevant fields only.
For example, to create a form listing all countries, you can use a menu field to list the
continents first. After the user chooses "Europe", the selection in Field 2 "Country" is reduced to the countries within Europe.
You can download the presentation from this link and 3 database presets from this link.
And, here is the direct link to the Moodle.net entry. Thanks William for sharing such a nice piece of work with whole Moodle community.
If you have some more ideas about using the database activity, please share in the comments.

Alexirhoe (pronounced ah-leks-IR-oh-ee) is one of the Greek Naiades. The Naiades were generally thought to be daughters of an Okeanid mother (the 3000 daughters of Tethys and Okeanos, Goddesses of fresh water sources) and a Potamoi father (the 3000 sons of Tethys and Okeanos, Gods of the rivers); in Alexirhoe's case, her father was Grenikos, God of the River Grenikos near Troy. By King Priam of Troy, she was the mother of Aisakos, who would later be turned into a bird when he tried to kill himself after losing his love, the nymph Hesperia. Alexirhoe's name, which means "averting flow," is also seen as Alexiroe or Alexirrhoe.

Santos advises that the Hides F1 (Hides Deep) well has reached total depth of 4,633 metres.
Thick argillaceous sandstone intervals were encountered in the exploration target, the Koi-Iange Formation, but wireline evaluation confirms an absence of reservoir quality.
The exploration component of the well will now be abandoned and the development section completed as a gas producer for the PNG LNG Project, operated by ExxonMobil.
Santos has a 24% interest in the exploration component of Hides F1.

The folks over at Vanity Fair have heard the complaints loud and clear. This year's Hollywood Issue is a bit more reflective of present-day Tinsletown and it's certainly what's good.
The glossy has long been ridiculed for its annual spread that noticeably left out faces of color (or tucked them behind the fold) despite their success in the biz. Yet after 2013, a year dubbed "The Year of Black Cinema," it was damn near impossible to leave out these undeniable talents.
Oscar nominees Chiwetel Ejiofor and Lupita Nyong'o represent for the critically-acclaimed drama 12 Years A Slave, which has been the frontrunner this awards season. As of late, the supporting actress has been a mag favorite due to her stunning looks and incredible fashion sense-- this VF shoot is no exception.
Fellow stars include Julia Roberts (August: Osage Country), Idris Elba (Mandela: Long Walk To Freedom), George Clooney (Gravity), Michael B. Jordan (Fruitvale Station), Jared Leto (Dallas Buyers Club), Naomie Harris (Mandela: Long Walk Home), Brie Larson (Short Term 12), Chadwick Boseman (42), Margot Robbie (The Wolf of Wall Street), and Léa Seydoux (Blue Is the Warmest Color).
The March issue hits newsstands Feb. 7 in New York and Los Angeles and will be available nationwide on Feb. 11.

The other night I ran into a vid on YouTube and is was ASMR, the guy was whispering and for some reason he made me feel really relaxed, like super relaxed, I slept like a baby!
Most Helpful Guy
ASMR is the best relaxation method that I use, it's like audio weed for the brain 👌
Although I don't really use it to fall asleep because I can just fall asleep in a matter of 5 minutes and dive into a deep solid sleep.
I try limit myself from ASMR because it's very dangerously chemically addictive. You should checkout: Bob Ross and Venividiculpes (my personal favourite)
The feeling is amazing ❤👌22|00|0

My boyfriend was a very good friend of mine.
And I told him almost everything but he was never there for me when I needed him , never kept his promises.
I told him about my molestation and he seemed supporting. But he is a family member so I had to confront him again.
He was there but I asked to calm me and talk to me for the entire night as I was tripping (over mobile)
But he slept.
I don't think he cares loves or respects me
every time I try to go he comes crawling back
We have Been on and off since we started
I loved him too much I guess I still want him
But I guess I should stay away.
I blocked him the next day and tackled my situ my self.

I got in touch to tell him this and he hasnt acted well at all.. at first he was ok about it but when i said i wasnt sure what i will do he changed… he basically told me we wont be getting back together and he never wanted kids so i know where he stands… i never said anything about us getting back together but i was trying to be ab adult to discuss what we should do… he then blocked me and got his sister to txt me about it…. im not sure if i should have a termination or go ahead as its a very big decision… i just feel instead of him being supportive hes basically told me to get rid… he was saying how will you cope in a one bedroom flat with no money bringing a child into a broken home…. any advice here.
Whether you keep your child is totally up to you. You're right, it is a huge decision. So take some time to really think about it. If you keep the child, will you be able to provide for it? Food, clothing, housing? Who will watch it when you go to work? Or, if you can't, are you ok with giving it up for adoption? If you decide to terminate, remember that that's an ok choice too! You need to do what's best for you.
If you do decide to keep your child though, the father has legal obligations. Get a lawyer and make sure he pays child support.
Ok thankyou… do you think he is being quite nasty about the situation
[Kate] yes! And immature.
- This reply was modified 8 months ago by Kate.
I'm sorry you are going through this but, it really doesn't matter if he's being nasty about the situation or not. That is not the most important question here. He's been clear- he won't support you.
You need to be taking a good hard look at your life right now and deciding if you are able to bring a child into it on your own. Can you emotionally support this child alone? Can you cover most of the things financially (I mean, there's always child support, but even sometimes that's not a guaranteed).
He is definitely not handling this well. But unfortunately, there are a lot of people who do not react to this kind of news maturely and kindly. Aside from pursuing legal help if you keep the baby in order to get financial support, you can't force someone to act better.
Like freckles said, this is a decision you'll have to make on your own by considering your resources, needs, and what you can provide for a child.
Thanks everyone… yeah i need to think of myself and what im going to do… i know it doesnt matter how hes reacting but just stange as when we were together he would always say if i git preg he would support me. I know we are not together but i wonder if he wud have still reacted badly like this if it happened and we were together…. but yeah ive got a lot to think about.
Thanks guys…. yes kate i thought so too… fair enough ive had my moments but im trying to be adult about this and all he does is block me and get his sister to txt and be the third wheel… or he will more or less tell me abortion is the best idea as he never wanted kids … which is fair enough but sometimes these things happen… i wonder if he would act the same if we were still together as he always claimed he would support me if an accident happened.
It is absolutely irrelevant how he'd act if you were still together. He didn't want to be with you anymore, and you getting pregnant wouldn't have changed that, though it might have dragged out the misery.
Yeah i understand that… why say he still loves me then… its because he doesnt want kids he told me that from day one…what makes u agree that hes being immature and nasty then?…
To be honest, not that it matters, but yes. I think he would act the same way if you were together.
He always said he would support you if it happened, but when it DOES happen, it goes from hypothetical to real.
I guess I'm not sure why it's so important for you to have people agree that he's being immature and nasty.
How does that change anything?
I got pregnant without thinking things through. My daughter is the best decision I ever made but it is HARD and I am NOT A single mother.
First, do you have healthcare for your prenatal care? Do you have a plan for your (assumingly) unpaid maternity leave (I had a voluntary short term disability policy that gave me 60% of my pay while I was out and we still had a hard time)
Who will watch the baby when you go back to work? My daycare cost is more than my monthly mortgage. What about clothes, diapers, food, etc.
I made my decision blind and it's been so difficult.
You need to be deciding if you can do this on your own, not trying to decide if he truly is being immature
I agree your right… and i have a lot to think about… i guess maybd my best decision might be to not go ahead…. thanks for sharing your story. Its a lot and a big life choice…… guess im just asking if people think its immature or nasty of him as part of me still loves him and not over him. Guess if i can see that hes not being as nice as i thought it will help me move on

1) white population was 30% of the world.
thanks those eggheads's population theory.
Now white population is 10% of the world, in the future it will be 7%.
2) white populatoion was 90% in USA in 1900.
Now white will sonn be monirity in west Europe and america.
They will be the nest india or Brzail.
west and USA will both be finsied sonner rather than later.
No one can stops this, hahahahahhahaa.
If they want to be brownstans, they can be. :) hahahhahahahhahahhaha

Even if the white race becomes a minority, the cultures won't die so fast.
Most Helpful Guy
I don't see why it matters what color future generations of people are. Western Civilization has contributed tremendously to human culture it's true, so much so we don't even notice it for the most part but just regard it as normal. But the contributions of the West were built on the civilizations that came before and the civilizations that are to come will build on Western civilization.
Race will become irrelevant over the next 100 years in any case because GATTACA is coming. The divide will be between those who are genetically select and those who aren't, not between races.21|10|0
again, if you are a white, you can find out how great to be minority in the future.
are you a white or colored.
Like I said, skin color isn't going to matter. The coming divide will be between those whose parents chose their genetic profile and those who didn't. There is going to be a bulge at the high end of the bell curve that will wipe away worries about racial differences. You are like a guy worried about the decline of horse breeding after the invention of the automobile.


text: Don't look now, but here comes round two of the Net building boom.Though sales of core Internet routers -- the big traffic-management devices at key junction points of communications networks -- have been slowing, total revenue for the segment next year is expected to hit levels not seen since the peak of Net construction in 2000. In the third quarter, core router sales grew 35% from a year ago to $453 million, according to Dell'Oro Group, an industry research shop. But the pace of core router growth has slowed from the recent 50% clip. After the new century collapse of the telecom industry and the sharp slowdown in network-equipment spending, some niches of the gearmaker market have managed to thrive as the march of Internet expansion continues. Shin Umeda, an analyst with Dell'Oro Group, says the growth rate "will begin to taper off a bit" next year, but that is largely a function of how big the market has become. Core router sales likely will hit the $2 billion mark in 2006, equaling the 2000 peak, says Umeda. Two players, Cisco ( CSCO) and Juniper ( JNPR), have dominated the core router market over the past five years. Cisco has been the top seller throughout, but Juniper has gradually chipped away at the lead. For the quarter ended in September, Cisco's core router market share dropped to 55% from 56% in the prior quarter and 59% a year ago. Juniper, meanwhile, has managed to capture 37% of the market. "Over the long term, there has been a trend shifting away from Cisco to Juniper, though this year that has moderated somewhat," says Umeda. A good portion of Cisco's solid core router performance this year has been the moderate success of its CRS-1 mega router.

The present invention concerns a low cost interface used for uploading and downloading configuration, diagnostic and/or other information to a computing system.
Typically, a user may interact with a computing system using one of many standard interfaces. A user may input information to a computer using, for example, a keyboard, a touchscreen, and/or a mouse. A computer, may output information to a user through output devices such as printers, video screens, plotters and voice synthesizers.
The generally available means for input to and output from a computing system require an operating system to be loaded and a sophisticated I/O system to be operating. In the prior art, there is generally no available interface which allows communication with a computing system solely for the purpose of obtaining diagnostic information or for obtaining or changing configuration information without using an existing I/O system.
In accordance with the preferred embodiment of the present invention there is presented a computing system which has a wireless interface, for example one which uses infrared light beams. In various embodiments of the present invention, the infrared interface is used to directly transmit configuration information to and/or receive configuration from a configuration storage device, e.g., a configuration register, without going through the standard I/O interfaces of the computing system. This is done by connecting the infrared interface directly to the configuration storage device.
In an alternate embodiment of the present invention, the infrared interface is used to allow direct connection to a memory bus without using an I/O bus. This, for example, allows the computing system to send out diagnostic information without using the I/O bus. The infrared interface can be full duplex allowing requests for diagnostic information to be made by a handheld computing system such as a handheld computer or a calculator. Other uses for the present invention include a means for downloading data and programming code to a handheld computing system such as a calculator, and for receiving data from a calculator.
FIG. 1 shows an infrared interface added to a computing system in accordance with the preferred embodiment of the present invention.
FIG. 2 shows a block diagram of a computing system with shown locations where infrared interfaces may be added in accordance with preferred embodiments of the present invention.
FIG. 3 shows a block diagram of a hardware level implementation of an infrared interface in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
FIG. 1 shows a computing system 2 having, for example, a disk drive 3. To computing system 2 has been added a wireless interface system 4 in accordance with the preferred embodiment of the present invention. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, wireless interface system 4 is an infrared interface system. Infrared interface system 4 may be accessed, for example, by a handheld computing system 5. Handheld computing system 5 may be, for example, a handheld computer or calculator which also has an infrared interface.
FIG. 2 shows a block diagram of the internal organization of computing system 2, including various locations where an infrared interface are added in different embodiments of the present invention. In computing system 2, a memory bus 10 is used to connect a central processing unit (CPU) 14 to a main memory 11 and an input/output (I/O) controller 16. I/O controller 16 serves as an interface to an I/O bus 20. An I/O device 21, an I/O device 22 and an I/O device 24 are connected to I/O bus 20. I/O devices 21, 22 and 24 provide for standard I/O to computing system 2. These I/O devices may include, for example, a display interface, a keyboard interface, one or more serial I/O ports, one or more parallel I/O ports, etc.
Within various embodiments of computing system 2, an infrared interface is added in different locations depending on the specific purpose of the interface. For example, a configuration storage device 13, e.g., a configuration register is shown connected to memory bus 10. Within configuration storage device 13 is stored configuration information accessible by CPU 14. In one embodiment of the present invention, an infrared interface 15 is connected directly to configuration storage device 13 to facilitate the easy access of configuration information by a technician without the necessity of going through regular I/O channels. This is especially useful for a technician in a manufacturing plant.
For example, using this embodiment of the present invention, the technician can load configuration information directly into computing system 2 from a handheld computer equipped with an infrared interface, such as handheld computing system 5. In the preferred embodiment, on power-up, computing system 2 is designed to take information received from infrared interface 15 and place the information in configuration storage device 13. This allows a technician to power-up computing system 2 and quickly and simply load configuration information into computing system 2 without using wires to connect an I/O device to computing system 2, and without the need to load operating system software into computing system 2. Infrared interface 15 may even be equipped with its own battery power supply so that infrared interface 15 is always ready to receive configuration information. This allows a technician to perform the configuration without the need to connect computing system 2 to an outside power source. Alternately, a separate power plug is added to computing system 2 so that a technician can carry a small power source which may be directly hooked up to infrared interface 15 thus allowing ease of loading configuration information without powering up all of computing system 2.
In one embodiment, infrared interface 15 operates in full duplex mode. This allows a technician to directly read configuration information in configuration storage device 13, as well as write information to configuration storage device 13, without going through regular I/O channels. Alternately, infrared interface 15 may be used only for reading configuration storage device 13.
In another embodiment of the present invention, an infrared interface 12 is connected to memory bus 10. Infrared interface 12 is used, for example, to transmit diagnostic information to a technician. This information is generated, for example, by CPU 14 on a regular basis, or alternately, the diagnostic information is generated upon detection of an error in the system by any device on memory bus 10. The diagnostic information may include firmware check sums. Additionally, infrared interface 12 is implemented to operate in full duplex mode so that through infrared interface 12 a technician may request and receive diagnostic information. The advantage of this embodiment of the present invention is that diagnostic information can be obtained without the necessity of bringing up I/O devices, or when the regular I/O channels are down. Infrared interface 12 can help in diagnosing problems as long as sufficient intelligence is available to activate infrared LEDs within infrared interface 12. For example, infrared interface 12, may contain sufficient intelligence to output diagnostic information even when CPU 14 is inoperable.
Also, in an alternate embodiment, an infrared interface 23 is added to I/O bus 20 as a separate input device. Infrared interface 23 is used, for example, to interface to a wireless portable printer. This printer is used, for example, by a technician for the printing out diagnostic information. Alternately, the printer is used as an inexpensive printer for computer system 2. Infrared interface 23, in an alternate embodiment, is used as a mechanism by which programs or data is downloaded from and/or uploaded to computing system 2 by a handheld computer or calculator equipped with an infrared interface, such as handheld computing system 5.
The present invention utilizes infrared transmission technology because it provides a wireless transmission technology that is low-cost and has low-power usage. Additionally, components for infrared technology are readily available. Further, the design of infrared links is readily understood by those skilled in the art of remote-control units for televisions sets and video cassette recorders.
Infrared transmission has also been used as an interface between low-cost calculators and printers. For example, a Hewlett-Packard Company model number 18C and 28C calculator each include an infrared interface which allows the calculator to be connected to a Hewlett-Packard Company 82240A infrared printer. The hardware implementation of the infrared interface between these calculators and this printer is adapted as the preferred embodiment of the hardware portion of the infrared interface of the present invention.
For example, FIG. 3 shows hardware which implements an infrared link. For transmission of infrared signals, current is placed through an infrared light emitting diode (LED) 36 to a transmitter ground 37. The current is generated, for example from a five volt power source 31. A transistor circuit including a transistor 32, a resistor 33 and a resistor 35 is used to control current through infrared LED 36. A control signal placed on line 34 with, for example, a modulation frequency of 32.768 kHz is used to encode information sent through the infrared link. The value of resistor 35 is chosen to limit current through infrared LED 36 to about 80 to 160 milliamperes.
Infrared signals transmitted by infrared LED 36 are received by an infrared photo diode 41. Photo diode 41 acts as a weak current source with an amplitude proportional to the incident of light intensity. A sensitive gain-controlled preamplifier provides frequency selectivity, demodulation and conversion of the current from photo diode 41 to logic voltage levels. The preamplifier includes a preamplifier integrated circuit (IC) 55 and various discrete components connected as shown. The discrete components include a compensation capacitor 45, a compensation capacitor 46, an AGC capacitor 52 an output integrator capacitor 53. Values for a capacitor 48 and an inductor 47, which form an LC oscillator, are chosen so that a frequency of oscillation matches the modulation frequency of, for example, 32.768 kHz. A resistor 43 functions as a power supply filter for a five volt power source 44.
Once infrared photo diode 41 generates a current, a pull up resistor 39 and a pull down resistor 40 convert this current into a very small differential voltage. A coupling capacitor 50 and a coupling capacitor 51 feed this voltage differential into preamplifier IC 55. A capacitor 49 provides for high-frequency noise reduction.
Within preamplifier IC 55 are two externally compensated gain stages with automatic gain control. Also included is a tuned synchronous demodulator stage, an output integrator and pulse shaper. After the pulse shaper, signals from the preamplifier IC 55 are forwarded to a receiving unit through an output 56. For more details on this particular infrared interface and on infrared interfaces in general see Steven L. Harper, Robert S. Worsley, and Bruce A Stephens, An Infrared Link for Low-Cost Calculators and Printers, Hewlett-Packard Journal, October 1987, pp. 16-20.
The encoding of data through infrared signals is well understood. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, data is encoded in bit times which are subdivided into half-bit times. A bit time is defined as 28 periods of a 32.768 kHz waveform (approximately 854.5 microseconds). Time intervals are measured from the leading edge of the bursts. A one bit is defined as a burst at the beginning of the first half-bit time with no burst in the second half-bit time. A zero bit is defined as no burst in the first half-bit time and a burst at the beginning of the second half-bit time. A start bit is defined as a burst at the beginning of three consecutive half bit times, an otherwise illegal sequence. Start-bit bursts can have six to nine 32.768 kHz pulses of infrared light.
Each frame of data consists of a start bit followed by 12 data bits. The first four data bits are used for error corrections. The remaining eight bits are a byte of information. There is a delay of at least three half-bit times between frames, measured from the end of the last bit time of a frame to the leading edge of the start bit of the next frame. This gives a maximum data rate of about 78 bytes per second. For more information on transmission and error correction of data see Steven L. Harper, Robert S. Worsley, and Bruce A Stephens, An Infrared Link for Low-Cost Calculators and Printers, Hewlett-Packard Journal, October 1987, pp. 16-20, cited above.
The foregoing discussion discloses and describes merely exemplary methods and embodiments of the present invention. As will be understood by those familiar with the art, the invention may be embodied in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics thereof. Accordingly, the disclosure of the present invention is intended to be illustrative, but not limiting, of the scope of the invention, which is set forth in the following claims.
