ePacket delivery is one of the most popular shipping methods. As one of the fastest delivery methods, ePacket China allows you to ship internationally. You can use China Post to monitor your ePacket tracking for your customers.
When it comes to dropshipping, most products are manufactured in China or Hong Kong. Naturally, many suppliers are also based in this part of the world. This is one reason why dropshipping products are relatively inexpensive to source. Many have asked themselves, "why buy a cheap product if shipping fees are high and wait times are long?"
Formerly, products purchased from China were shipped by sea. This meant delivery could take 8+ weeks. This meant your customers had to wait longer to receive their products. Or you'd also have to purchase the product at a higher price from a US based supplier. Unfortunately, buying from a US supplier can eat into your profit margins.
Fortunately, ePacket tracking shows that most orders come within 30 days. When you check your ePacket track data, you might notice many packages arrive sooner. Now, ePacket China Post tracking allows people to order affordable products from China with low shipping costs. There are several considerations to make regarding using ePacket delivery. For example: ePacket regulations, the location of your customer base, and how to track ePacket deliveries. This guide will cover these topics and more.
What Is ePacket Delivery?
ePacket delivery is an agreement between the US Postal Service and Hongkong Post. The goal is to increase international ecommerce sales for China. It allows for faster ePacket delivery of products coming from China and Hong Kong to the United States. Merchants can send small packages weighing up to 2 kg (4.4 lbs).
The value of the package also needs to be less than $400.
This new ePacket China Post shipping method offers a variety of benefits to buyers, including:
- Door-to-door China ePacket tracking
- Postal customs clearance on any duties or taxes paid by the recipient
ePacket was originally created specifically for ecommerce purchases. It allows customers in the United States to have access to affordable shipping costs when ordering from China. Then, ePacket became so successful within the US that they began expanding internationally. The list of countries that have access to ePacket is constantly growing.
Keep in mind that it's not possible to offer free shipping on all products. If the package is under 24″ x 36″ and less than 2kg it qualifies for ePacket shipping. Notably, this type of ePacket delivery method must be shipped from either China or Hong Kong. Thus, if certain dropshipping vendors have products shipping within the US, customers cannot benefit from ePacket shipping in that specific case.

ePacket Tracking – How to Track ePacket Delivery from China
Next, it's important to learn how to track ePacket. ePacket shipping also features ePacket tracking and delivery confirmation in the US Postal Service network. Also, ePacket tracking codes must be obtained through your supplier, and you can track ePacket shipments China Post or sites like 17track.net. Most suppliers on the Oberlo Supply marketplace offer ePacket delivery, so you'll be able to get your products to your customers promptly.
You can find a tracking code by going to Oberlo > My Orders, and you'll see the tracking code next to all of your fulfilled orders.
If you're subscribed to the 'Basic' or 'Pro' Oberlo plan, you'll be able to click on the product and you'll see the shipment status instantly. This is what you'll see when you click on the product:
However, if you're subscribed to Oberlo's 'Starter' plan, you'll need to track your order manually using an external website — we recommend using 17track.net.
ePacket delivery drastically cuts down the shipping time for dropshipping orders. This allows your customers to get faster delivery, which maintains your business' positive relationship with them.
A product delivered with ePacket shipping is typically delivered within 7-30 days. The delivery method to the US is typically faster than other countries around the world. This is likely due to high order volumes from the US due to the size of their population allowing for more frequent trips. Yet, compared to standard ePacket China Post deliveries (sometimes up to 60 days), countries around the world receive their packages much faster when using ePacket shipping.
Often, you even have the option to select ePacket delivery options that are free. A benefit to free ePacket delivery is that you can have free shipping on your store which helps increase conversions. Even if you pay for shipping, it typically only costs a few dollars and can't be absorbed into your business costs.
Pro Tip: Using Oberlo, you can quickly find products that have an ePacket delivery option available using an overlay filter:
People want instant gratification, so reducing shipping times will help you to make more sales. A core reason why they've dominated other retailers is the ease of purchasing a product on Amazon and low shipping times. Fortunately, you can still meet the needs of your customers with ePacket tracking and delivery. Thus, customers will still receive products quickly but at a fraction of the cost of an American made product.
The lower your shipping time and costs, the more likely customers are to buy from you. Your business will also have higher the margins from low business costs. Luckily, even if you have to pay for ePacket delivery, with the right product price, your business can easily absorb the cost of using ePacket China post tracking and delivery. Fortunately, most ePacket deliveries are either free or only a couple of dollars.
In addition, using ePacket tracking and delivery changes the game for ecommerce entrepreneurs who want to buy products from Chinese suppliers at a low cost, while maintaining quick shipping times for their customers.
Most noteworthy, customers may have to pay for customs or taxes on their products. This isn't an ePacket shipping issue but an international shipping one. For best-selling items, you may want to contact your suppliers to find out about customs fees.
Notably, products with ePacket to Canada, or other international countries, may have slightly higher shipping fees and lengthier delivery times. Often, free ePacket shipping is only for the US. You need to look up the countries you serve manually to ensure that ePacket tracking and delivery is available internationally. Hence, if you always target the same countries, you might want to check if they have ePacket before importing them into your store. This helps to ensure that every customer who can benefits from the ePacket China post delivery option.
You now have a strong understanding of ePacket — congratulations! Now, you're ready to incorporate this delivery option onto your ecommerce store. Doing so is likely improve customer satisfaction and boost your conversation rates. For more tips and tricks for improving your dropshipping process, feel free to have a look around our blog.

Listed below are descriptions of SilverCreek's General SNMP Tools, as distinguished from the SilverCreek MIB Tools. All the SilverCreek SNMP tools are written in Tcl, the Tool Command Language, a scripting language that permits easy customization.
- SNMP Command Tool (simple)
- SNMP Command Wizard (advanced)
- SNMP Command Tcl Script Generator
- SNMP Automation Wizard
- SNMPv3 USM Manager
- Configuring Notification Tables Tool
- SNMP Notification Monitor (trap tester)
- Polling Tool
- Memory Leak Tool
- Performance Measuring Tool
- Packet Recorder and Decoder
- Packet Trace
SNMP Command Tool (simple)
Issue SNMP commands -- GETs, SETs, NEXTs, and/or GET-BULK requests -- to a specific MIB object. For example, "SET" the name of sysContact to a value representing the contact person for the network device.
- Send SNMP GET, NEXT, SET requests
SNMP Command Wizard (advanced)
Put together a sequence of SNMP commands or operations and save this sequence in a script for later use. Easily build a script that performs GETs, SETs, NEXTs, and/or GET-BULK requests on several MIB objects. Check and verify sequences of anticipated user behaviors or the behavior of a management application with the SNMP Command Wizard.
- Send SNMP GET, NEXT, SET, GET-BULK requests
- Send a series of requests with multiple objects
- Save and load previous command sets
SNMP Command Tcl Script Generator
Easily create and run simple test cases without actually writing any Tcl scripts! With the Tcl Script Generator, you can point and click to build scripts to execute a series of GET, GET-NEXT, SET, and GET-BULK commands to test scalars (objects not in a MIB table) and columns (objects in MIB tables). This includes generating scripts to exercise rowStatus transition. Create multiple context in your scripts to access multiple devices under test or a single agent with different access levels.
- Build test scripts automatically (without programming knowledge)
- Create one or more agents to test
- Send SNMP GET, NEXT, SET, GET-BULK requests
- Test both scalar and columnar (table) objects
- Exercise row creation and row status transition for any table
- Write verification on read-write objects using allowable values
- Resulting test script may be added to SilverCreek Test Suite
SNMP Automation Wizard
The SNMP Automation Wizard allows the user to create automated scripts, edit them, save them, and run them by a simple graphic point and click process. There is no need to look at the code or use a scripting language, although full source code, APIs, and libraries are available for all the tests. The tester simply specifies the agent under test, the type of output desired, and the individual tests or collections of tests to include. This script is saved and can be re-invoked for regression testing. Multiple agents and multiple scripts can be automated through this SNMP tool.
SNMPv3 USM Manager
The SNMPv3 USM Manager tool allows you to create new USM users, create and delete VACM view names, assign views to users and update users' secret keys (or passwords). This SNMP tool greatly simplifies the process of updating a SNMP agent's User-based Security Module (USM) table as well as the View Based Access Control Model (VACM) tables. You can create new users, assign a new user to a group, assign a MIB view to a group of users, test users, and update user authentication and encryption passwords.
- Show table relations among the five key tables (USM and VACM)
- Create a new user, assign user to group, assign MIB views to group
- Key Change
- Manage MIB View Names
- Test and Delete User
Configuring Notification Tables Tool
SNMPv3 can be very difficult to set up and configure, primarily due to the many components and the need to keep track of them and their relationships to each other. The Configuring Notification Tables Tool greatly simplifies this task.
Cleanly and efficiently create notification targets and the target parameters, specifically securityModel, securityLevel, and SecurityName to associate with the targets. Create notification filters to associate with the targets.
This tool highlights the relationship among the tables by highlighting the associated rows in other tables, giving the user easy to follow, visual cues for tracking the relationship.
- Show Current Setting and Table Relations
- Create Notification Names
- Create Notification Targets
- Create Notification Targets Parameters
- Create Notification Files
- Create Community String Mappings
SNMP Notification Monitor (Trap Tester)
When devices on a network experience certain problems (e.g. link down), they will send an SNMP trap or notification to the management application. The Notification Monitor listens for these traps and displays them in the a window. This SNMP tool also checks and verifies each trap for protocol compliance. Thus, you can verify that the traps in your product are correctly implemented.
- Check variables bindings of received notifications for correct syntax type, range, size, instance identifiers and order.
- Support listening on multiple ports for traps and informs
- Synchronize with, and receive encrypted traps from SNMPv3 notification originator
- Option to skip check time window for SNMPv3 notifications
- CSV or tab delimited output can be imported into a spreadsheet (e.g. Excel)
Polling Tool
Sample the value of a MIB object instance or multiple MIB object instances over time. Visually inspect and verify that counters are incrementing or other values are changing in an appropriate way.
- Poll selected objects via GET, GET-BULK, and Walking Branch
- Modify interval and duration of polling for load testing
- Tab delimited output can be imported into a spreadsheet (e.g. Excel)
Memory Leak Tool
Some SNMP agent implementations have been discovered that do not properly release allocated memory resources after they have responded to GET or GET-BULK requests that request an object in non-lexicographic order. One way to diagnose whether an agent has such leaks is to issue a large number of queries and examine the memory used by the agent before and then after the queries. The Memory Leak Tool was created as a quick and convenient way to issue such queries.
The Memory Leak Tool allows you to issue repeated GET, NEXT or GET-BULK commands on a set of objects or WALK the entire MIB for any given length of time, a number of predefined iterations, or an unlimited number of times. Usually you should start by "Walking the whole MIB" repeatedly to see if the memory leak exists in the agent under testing.
Performance Measuring Tool
Measure the response time to certain operations with one network device and then compare that to another device. This is useful for understanding performance issues and problems with a network application, the network itself, or the device itself. Create scripts and run the scripts against several devices and then compare the output results to determine where performance bottlenecks exist and even what device performs best. This SNMP tool assists in characterizing agent performance issues.
- Measure performance of GET, NEXT, SET, GET-BULK
- Measure performance of walking a MIB branch via NEXT, GET-BULK
- Measure performance of any scalar and columnar (table) objects
- Send both synchronously and asynchronously
- Tab delimited output can be imported into a spreadsheet (e.g. Excel)
SNMP Packet Recorder and Decoder*For use with SilverCreek Tests
The SNMP Packet Recorder and Decoder allows you to record packet traffic going to and from SilverCreek. Using this tool you can even record and view encrypted SNMPv3 packets. A regular packet sniffer can't do that.
Packet Trace
SilverCreek's SNMP tools: Packet Summary, Packet Watch and Packet Debugging -- provide as much detailed, low-level information as you need.

It has been a wild week for Allen (Texas) linebacker Christian Sam as college offers poured in.
Sam entered the week with offers from SMU and Boise State and several other programs showing interest. Then last Thursday an offer arrived from Baylor. Before the day was out Texas Tech put a scholarship on the table. Friday saw Oklahoma offer. San Diego State was next on Tuesday. Then Oregon State jumped on board Wednesday.
For those keeping count that is five offers in seven days. Not a bad week at all.
Article Continues Below
"It feels good to know all the hard work I put in has paid off," Sam said. "A lot of people recognize me. It feels good."
It is still early and Sam is in no rush to decide, but two programs have piqued his interest.
"I would have to say as of now OU and Tech are really catching my eye," Sam said. "OU it's a great program and a great place. It's not just a good football town they have good academics too. Texas Tech they're a young, new staff and they show a lot of love."
While he does not have a decision planned, he does have an idea about how he wants to handle the process.
"I want to take a few visits so I can know for sure that's where I belong," Christian said. "I don't want to make a decision too early. That's where I'm going to be for the next three or four years so I want to make sure it's the right place for me. My parents have to approve too. I couldn't really give a timetable for that."
Next up for Sam are a few college visits. He has not planned everything out, but he will take on visit this weekend and has another in the works in the near future.
"I'm going to Tech this week and I think OU wants me down there for their junior day March 9," Sam said. "I'm not too sure about that one. They gave me their spring schedule so I can go up there anytime and I'm definitely going to take advantage of that."
As a junior, Sam recorded 57 tackles, 15 tackles for loss, 11 sacks, an interception, a forced fumble, and a defensive touchdown. He helped lead Allen to a 15-1 record and the 5A Division I State Championship while earning honorable mention all-district honors.

I thought Danny was fantastic and was very sorry that I couldn't vote for him from Canada.
Printable View
I thought Danny was fantastic and was very sorry that I couldn't vote for him from Canada.
I've liked Danny since the beginning and hope he goes really far, not only in the competition but in his career. Love, love his voice.
I loved Danny's performance and was glad to see him change things up a bit with tempo. Danny is a remarkable talent: Great voice, Great emotion, Great phrasing, Great timing, Great tones and Great control.
After all the pimping and the ridiculous amount of time spent on his sob story added to just the plain creepiness I get off him, I was prepared to continue disliking him and was even prepared to take a potty break when he came on because I did not want to hear another inspirational song complete with family/friends crying while holding up the deadwife photo.
Then he came out and had me sitting there in shock wondering who the heck he was and how they managed to change the Danny I'd come to hate with the Danny that I could almost see myself eventually liking. Ok, like is too strong of a word but.. he definitely was one of the top last night in both singing and performance. Still don't like him, he gives me the creeps.
He has a better voice but I'm getting shades of Taylor Hicks with this guy. If he wins how would they market him and would there be a genuine place for him in the industry? I can't seem him doing well in the biz.
I LOVE this guy (as of right now anyway). His perfomance was great last night. So glad he decided not to do a sappy song and opted for an upbeat one.
I still like Danny a lot. I wasn't as impressed with his performance last night as I have been with other songs, but I still thought he was very good. I loved how he said that he loves to dance and he loves to sing, but when he tries to combine the two is when he has trouble. :lol
That crossed my mind last night as well, including the Taylor Hicks comparison, but I thought it was brought on by Simon's critique of his dancing. :lol I don't know how to classify Danny, either. According to his Fox bio, his favourite artists are Lauryn Hill :up :up and Michael Jackson. I don't see him singing that type of material, though. Another identity-crisis contestant, maybe?Quote:

Danny is cool.
Taylor wasn't, IMO.
The bluesy thing is more current now than it was 3-4 years ago.
I'm not a fan of that kind of music/sound...but I'd listen to Danny (and Matt) all night.

WHENEVER he has been asked about his long-term future, Rickie Lambert has always stated his desire to end his playing career at Southampton.
That may yet happen, but speculation linking him with a move to West Ham this month is not going away.
Time will tell if it is merely agent talk, but, in an open letter supporting manager Sam Allardyce in the wake of West Ham's 5-0 FA Cup defeat at Nottingham Forest, the club's owners have fuelled the Lambert rumours by revealing: "January is not an easy time to do business but we are pleased to confirm we are close to securing one of our key striking targets."
Lambert would be the perfect fit for Allardyce's relegation-threatened team.
A skilful, goalscoring target man, he could do for West Ham what Kevin Davies did for a decade at Bolton Wanderers, after Big Sam signed him from Saints.
And, crucially, the regular first-team football that Lambert would get in the absence of the injured Andy Carroll, would give him a better chance of scoring the goals he needs to make England's World Cup squad. But selling Lambert now is the sort of dilemma likely to polarise opinion amongst the Saints support. The pragmatists in favour will point to the fact that Lambert is 32 next month and the sort of player who needs to be playing week in, week out to be at peak fitness.
While the hip injury that forced him off after 35 minutes of the win against Burnley is not thought to be serious, it was a reminder that he is not getting any younger.
So, with Lambert under contract till 2016, Saints may be tempted to cash in now, rather than see his value depreciate.
A replacement would be needed, but with Jay Rodriguez capable of playing as an out-and-out striker and Sam Gallagher pushing for a place, Saints already have options in the absence of the suspended Dani Osvaldo. If Saints decide to sell their much-loved No. 7, they will surely wait until Osvaldo serves the rest of his three-match ban, against West Brom and Sunderland, in the next 11 days.
But, while there is no room for sentiment in football, and Lambert has not hit the heights of last season, he has three goals in his last four starts.
The romantics amongst the Saints support will be distraught if Lambert goes this month.
Players care little for statistics but Lambert still needs one league goal to join a seven-man pantheon with 100 or more, including the likes of Mick Channon, Matt Le Tissier and Terry Paine, which would cement his place as a club legend.
So would winning the FA Cup, which Lambert dreams of doing with the club he has scored 110 goals for in all competitions since his arrival in August 2009.
After being given another home tie against lower-league opposition in the fourth round, Saints have an excellent chance of going all the way and having some silverware to show for the progress made over the last five years, other than the Johnstone's Paint Trophy.
Winning the FA Cup would breed more confidence, help attract more players this summer and see the current team confirm this as an exciting new era by emulating the achievements of 1976. It would also provide Lambert with the opportunity to go out on a high or the chance to fulfil another dream – playing European football.

WEST PLAINS, Mo. – Add another mark to the win column for the Missouri State University-West Plains Grizzly Basketball team.
The Grizzlies defeated Central Methodist University's junior varsity squad from Fayette, Mo., 79-47 Monday night, Feb. 4, at the West Plains Civic Center. The victory ups the Grizzlies' overall season record to 17-9.
"I was actually pretty proud of how our team handled this game," Grizzly Basketball Head Coach Yancey Walker said. "Central Methodist beat a two-year school earlier in the year, and they played a couple of varsity guys last night, so this game had a chance for disaster."
The Grizzlies took control of the game early, going up 32-16 by halftime, and they maintained their advantage in the second half.
"These games aren't easy to prepare for or attain the focus needed, but we did a pretty decent job," Walker said. "We gave up too many back-door cuts, but our big guys did a good job of contesting all of their shots in the paint."
Game statistics show the Grizzlies connected on 30 of 50 shots from the field for 60 percent, five of 10 3-point attempts for 50 percent and 14 of 27 free throws for 51.9 percent. They also collected 39 rebounds, 16 assists, five blocks and six steals while coughing up the ball 13 times.
Leading scorers were freshman forward Malcolm Henderson with 18 points, followed by freshman guards Devaugntah Williams with 17 points and Arroyo Edwards with 11. Henderson also had seven rebounds.
"We played a lot better offensively in the second half and shared the ball much better as the game wore on," the coach said, noting the team's 12 assists in the second half. "We still need to concentrate on getting better each day."
Central Methodist hit 16 of 49 shots from the field for 32.7 percent, three of 14 3-point attempts for 21.4 percent and 12 of 14 free throws for 85.7 percent. The team collected 17 rebounds, five assists and six steals while committing 11 turnovers. Leading scorer was Patrick Posten with 9 points.
The Grizzlies return to the road Thursday night, Feb. 7, for a 7:30 p.m. contest against Northeast Mississippi Community College in Booneville. Their next Region 16 contest will be 7:30 p.m. Feb. 13 against State Fair Community College in Sedalia, Mo.
For more information about the Grizzly Basketball program, visit the team's website at http://wp.missouristate.edu/grizzly/bb.htm or call the Grizzly Basketball office at 417-255-7993.

Is there anything extremist right-wing preachers won't blame on LGBT people? After the Newtown shooting, James Dobson listed tolerance of gay marriage as one of the reasons God's punishment was directed at a bunch of first graders. And who can forget the classic Jerry Falwell moment, blaming 9/11 on "the pagans, and the abortionists, and the feminists, and the gays and the lesbians who are actively trying to make that an alternative lifestyle…."
It's easy to laugh at wingnuts, but they have millions of followers and their hate, in the name of some perverted concept of God, gives moral cover to the queer bashers and bullies everywhere.
On Monday, we're going to be face to face with one of them, Scott Lively, in a courtroom in Springfield, MA. If that name isn't familiar to you like Falwell's or Dobson's, that's because Lively's unique contribution to this anti-gay agenda is his persecution consulting in other countries, most notably Uganda, where he brags he is known as the "father" of the anti-gay movements.
Many Americans have heard of the infamous "Kill the Gays" bill inUganda, which has been introduced in several parliamentary sessions since it arose out of an anti-gay conference that Scott Lively headlined in 2009. But the day-to-day reality for LGBT Ugandans is already violence, death threats, severe discrimination and oppression. Meetings of LGBT activists are raided and shut down, and advocates have been arrested for exercising their rights to speech, assembly and association. LGBT Ugandans' advocacy, indeed their existence, is already criminalized.
No one has done more to orchestrate this situation than Scott Lively. Since 2002, he has worked systematically to strip away human rights protections from LGBT people in Uganda and elsewhere around the world, to silence them and make it impossible for them to organize and defend their rights. While he peddles the usual, age-old lie that LGBT people are pedophiles in order to deliberately provoke the rage that feeds the growing repression and violence, he combines that myth with a new twist, that gays were also responsible for the Holocaust and that Hitler's Germany is what can happen when a gay movement grows unchecked.

Ah, Zer01. What are we to make of you? A company of mysterious provenance, Zer01 Mobile exploded onto the scene in March claiming to offer unlimited voice-over-IP and 3G data plans for $70/month using a unique business model. They would sign interconnect agreements as if they were a wireless carrier, but they wouldn't run any wireless network of their own; essentially, they'd always be roaming. Once Zer01 data hit AT&T and T-Mobile towers it would drop down to Zer01's own Internet backbone.
Initially, they said they'd sell their service directly. Then they contracted with a distributor called Buzzirk Mobile, which was associated with a guy on probation for securities fraud and who was accused of running a pyramid scheme.
After a lot of negative press, Zer01 cut off that relationship and now they say they're going to try to sell a white-label service through big-box retail stores, who would brand the mobile service under their own names.
Zer01 showed off a T-Mobile HTC Touch Pro2 smartphone running their custom software (shown at left) at the ShowStoppers event last night, which they said was connecting calls using their VOIP service, but frankly there was no way to tell; it connected calls, but it was impossible to say whether they were VOIP calls or just T-Mobile phone calls.
Zer01 isn't the first company to founder on the shoals of the US wireless industry. Hop-On has appeared at cell-phone trade shows for years without actually producing any retail phones that I've ever seen. Zzzphone at one point said they'd sell custom-built Chinese phones to Americans for cheap; they have since vanished. And Logic Wireless showed off a celebrated projector-phone at a trade show earlier this year, but to call it "hard to find" would be an understatement.
Is Zer01 for real? We're still on the fence. Time will tell.

OAKLAND (KCBS) – The Oakland Police Department will soon re-hire eight more of the officers laid off last year because of budget cuts, Police Chief Anthony Batts said.
The Police Department has already brought back 24 of the 80 officers it laid off in July 2010 to help close a $42 million deficit that faced the city that year.
Batts said all of the returning officers were sorely needed to combat prostitution and drug dealing, which are often factors in the city's shootings and aggravated assaults.
"Some of those who are doing drug dealing, they're the pimps who are putting the young prostitutes out there too," Batts said.
KCBS' Chris Filippi Reports:
Demonstrators at a rally Thursday in the San Antonio neighborhood marched along International Boulevard to protest the exploitation of children by the sex trade.
Some women participating in the march complained that they feel unsafe walking alone in the area after 7 o'clock at night. Other residents said they frequently see teenage girls climbing into cars with older men who are clearly not relatives or friends.
Batts promised the marchers he would create a task force that specifically focuses on identifying and arresting suspects most likely to commit violent crimes.
The chief said the beefed up size of the force would also allow him to step up patrols in crime hot spots throughout Oakland.

The 2014 Stanley Cup finals have drawn to a close, so the Pornhub Statisticians stopped to take a look at how hockey viewership affected traffic to everyone's favorite porn site. We've seen in the past that televised sports events like the 2014 Superbowl, the 2014 NBA Finals and the 2013 Stanley Cup can have a major effect on Pornhub traffic when fans choose tuning-in over turning-on (at least for a few hours).
The 2014 NHL Finals featured a 5 game series played out between the New York Rangers and the Los Angeles Kings. In game 1, hopes were high for both teams and we saw an 11.7% traffic drop in Los Angeles and 13.8% in New York. With Los Angeles one win ahead going into game 2, nearly 3 times as many New Yorkers gave up Pornhub to watch the game. In game 3, Los Angeles was 2 wins ahead which seemed to excite their fans enough to see a 10% drop to Pornhub and 7.1% in New York.
With 3 wins for Los Angeles, game 4 had the potential to be the decisive match, so traffic dropped significantly in both cities – 15.1% in New York and 17% in Los Angeles. The Rangers managed to win that game giving New York some hope going into game 5. Interestingly though, it seems that New York fans had already given up – game 5 traffic to Pornhub was actually up 1.8% over New York's time-of-day average. The 10% drop in Los Angeles paid off for Kings fans, with both hands free to cheer their team right through to the Stanley Cup win.
Focusing in on game 5, we can see how Los Angeles and New York City traffic played out hour-by-hour. As the puck dropped, 7.6% more New Yorkers were fixated on Pornhub than usually were at 8pm on a Friday. It was only as the game went into the first period of overtime that New Yorkers stopped playing with themselves long enough to cheer on their favorite players. Traffic in Los Angeles was down a steady 8% for the first 3 periods of the game, but as it went into overtime the traffic dropped down by 14%.
With the Kings winning goal in the second period of overtime, fans everywhere headed back to Pornhub to either make themselves feel better (in New York) or to celebrate their win by popping one off (in Los Angeles). Los Angeles traffic stayed lower than usual well into the night, but remained up in New York by as much as 7%.
Fans state-wide seemed to follow the same trends as in their capital cities, but with a much higher increase in traffic in New York. Immediately after the game, Pornhub's traffic in New York state surged nearly 15% above normal for Friday night. Fans all across the United States tuned in to watch the decisive overtime portion of the game, and then made up for that lost time by heading back to Pornhub.
You can compare these results to our study of the 2013 Stanley Cup Finals between the Chicago Blackhawks and Boston Bruins. In that game, Boston was more focused in the first few periods, but then traffic dropped over 20% in both cities at the game drew to a close. With Chicago too busy celebrating their win the traffic there stayed well below the usual numbers, but we saw a massive traffic surge of 21% in Boston.

If the Patriots are going to handle the heat of the Buffalo defensive line, they're going to have to do it without the services of Logan Mankins.
Mankins, still suffering from a hip injury, did not make the trip to Buffalo with the team. Mankins had been listed as questionable for the game.
Friday night the possibility was raised that Mankins may not be able to play, and now the Patriots face the prospect of trying to protect Tom Brady without their best offensive lineman. Ryan Wendell is the backup on the depth chart.
The injury raises serious concerns about the ability to keep Brady upright on Sunday, as the Patriots will already have to use a less-than-healthy Rob Gronkowski on the outside.

Tracking the Zags
by Sabrina Jones
Spokane, Wash. – It may be gray and rainy outside, but the atmosphere in the Kennel is anything but dreary. The Scarlet Knights made the 2,541-mile journey from New Brunswick, New Jersey, and are taking their first official practice on the McCarthey floor this afternoon.
Rutgers head Coach C. Vivian Stringer likened playing in McCarthey Athletic Center to playing in Gampel Pavilion, the home court for the University of Connecticut women's basketball team. "It's a sea of blue in there, isn't it?" Stringer asked. "We anticipate that the fans will be very proud and very supportive of their team."
"I see Gonzaga as a smaller version of Connecticut, who we played twice this year," said Stringer. "We know it's hard to stop a team who knows each other inside and out, who moves the ball with precision, and who reads each other extremely well. Gonzaga is a team like that."
Currently in her 41st year of coaching, Stringer comes to Gonzaga with an impressive resume, having been inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2009, surpassed 800 career wins in 2008, only the third women's coach and the first African American – male or female – to do so. Coach Stringer was the first coach, male or female, to lead three different teams to the NCAA Final Four: Cheyney State (1982), Iowa (1993), and Rutgers (2000, 2007).
Two of the team's starters – senior forward April Sykes and senior guard Khadijah Rushdan, reflected on what it's like learning from such an accomplished coach.
"She (Stringer) has so much knowledge of the game," said Rushdan. "With her it's not just about the wins and the losses; it's about the effort. Every lesson that we learn, everything that we are taught, is not just about basketball. It is always something that will definitely prepare us for life."
"She doesn't want us to settle," said Sykes. "She is like a mother to us and we love her. She makes good people great and the great people go beyond."
The Gonzaga Bulldogs have been working hard to keep life as 'normal' as possible since learning of their first-ever at-large bid on Monday. Head Coach Kelly Graves is thrilled to showcase not only Gonzaga's women's basketball program, but the University and the city of Spokane, as well. "I love hosting the NCAA here in Spokane because it's a great showcase for our fans, our basektball program, our university and the great city of Spokane. We feed off the crowd as we always do, but there is always some added pressure when you play at home, as well."
Rutgers and Gonzaga tip off Saturday at 1:15 p.m. in McCarthey Athletic Center. The game is sold out but will be televised on ESPN2 and broadcast on 1510 AM or 1050 AM. For live stats, visit gozags.com.

ME: Alright, this'll be my first Halo/Red vs. Blue fanfic. Be advised, it's been a while since I played Halo, so excuse me for any inaccuracies. Oh. and this is slightly AU. Scratch that, it's AU TO THE MAX! WITH NINE NOBLE TEAM MEMBERS (LOOK FURTHER)!
Now since that's out of the way, time to move on to the story of, "Project Freelancer vs. the SPARTAN program."
What had been probably been a minor debate was now a full out war, Fleet Admiral Sir Terrence Hood observed. It may have been a discussion but now someone would die if he didn't intervene.
Dr. Catherine Elizabeth Halsey and Director Leonard Chruch, Sr., were at each others throats. Literally. Glasses were stained with spit, hair pulled, clothes wrinkled-.
I haven't seen nerds fight like this since Year 13.
But as enjoyable as the trip down memory lane was, he still grabbed each of his two braniacs by their necks and pulled them away.
"Alright," Hood growled not at the combatants but the observers, "what happened here?"
The group of enlisted and lower-ranking UNSC officers failed to respond. The man in charge of all of them sighed. "Fine. Guess I'll have the ice cream shipment re-."
The one to crack at his "threat" was a tall and slim female SPARTAN-III in gray armor. "Sir, Director Church claimed the Freelancers are," as the Lieutenant "coughed" the old Admiral heard the word "better", "than the SPARTANs. They got into a boring old people debate and started to try and murder each other."
"Can anyone give me a recording of what happened?" he asked.
A SPARTAN in light blue/steel armor nodded and brought out a datapad. "I'm bringing it up now sir," she said, a hint of Israeli origin in her accent. She handed him a pair of ear buds.
The video began to play. Hood was bored and would've dozed off if he didn't start seeing the thing almost immediately after the twelve second mark.
"Well if it isn't Director Church of Project Freelancer. You're morals were questioned today by Admiral Parangosky of all people."
"And Dr. Halsey of the failed SPARTAN-Two Program."
"Excuse me?"
"I will be frank Catherine; I recruited forty-nine volunteers who all had exemplary records and performed the best of all on their tests. You kidnapped seventy-five children that weren't even eight and at age fourteen-ruined their lives even further. And you have the audacity to comment on my morals?"
From that point on it degenerated beyond description.
"Thank you Lieutenant Commander," said Hood. The twenty-two year old nodded and put away the datapad.
"Alright," he began his speech. "Ladies and gentlemen, you have witnessed a breakdown in maturity and joint operations capability."
"More like a cool senior citizens fight! Sir-."
"Grif, you dirt bag, shut up!"
"Yeah, who gives you the right to talk to royalty like that?"
Hood glared at the UNSC Army soldiers talking. That shut all of them up.
"Now that the interruption has ended, as I said before, a breakdown in maturity and joint operations capability occured. This showed division between the chief scientist of the SPARTAN Program and the Director of Project Freelancer.
No murmuring began, so he continued. "Thus, I shall have a contest in which the members of the SPARTAN Program and Project Freelancer along with their chief allies shall compete against one another in a variety of challenges. If the hatchet cannot be buried in games, it cannot be buried in battle."
"I wonder what's the prize?" Sergeant Major Avery Junior Johnson, one of Hoods favorite NCOs, asked.
"I will now show the potential punishment for either Director Church or Doctor Halsey should either of them lose," Hood said. "But I need two volunteers from the witnesses of the little scuffle.
Almost immediately all but two of the people present withdrew. Leaving two individuals in orchid and purple armor with green stripes.
"It appears I have my volunteers," Hood said gleefully. "Now please come forward."
The pair shuffled their feet. Examination showed the one in orchid armor was a woman while her fellow "volunteer" was a man.
"What are your names?"
"Freelancer Agent North Dakota," the man said. "This wont humiliate me in front of all my friends will it sir?"
"On the contrary young man," Hood replied, "your voluntary assistance will be appreciated by both myself and your comrades."
"Call me South," the woman said, her anger ringing a bell.
"Ah!" said the old man. "You two are twins aren't you?"
"Yes," the siblings said, a noticeable low level of enthusiasm from South.
"Excellent!" he said. With that he turned to South. "Young lady, I'm afraid you'll have to remove your helmet."
"So you can slap me?" she asked angrily. She then displayed a M45. "Do that, and this shotgun'll get shoved up your ass."
"Threatening a superior with the use of a deadly weapon in a completely unintended by designer manner is punishable by death, life imprisionment without parole or dishonorable discharge following trial by a UNSC Defense Force tribunal!"
"Simmons, you cannot interrupt the demonstration!"
"Yeah Simmons! Don't you know how selfless they're being by bravely aiding our glorious leader with only a general prompt and you're rudely ruining the whole thing?"
Hood motioned for them to keep their mouths closed, and turned to South. She had complied with his request and he now saw blonde hair, blue-grey eyes and a scarred left cheek.
"Thank you!" he said as he beamed. South made no effort to avoid rolling her eyes. But he instead turned to her brother. "Keep your hands behind your back young man."
"Yes sir," North replied as he put complied.
Hood smiled warmly. "And now for the test."
With that he pulled out two M6D Magnum sidearms. Although they could only fire paintballs, it would work out perfectly.
Before anyone could even utter the words, "What the fuck?" he shot North in the groin and two paintballs made it from his left sidearm to Souths right cheek and lower hair.
Both Freelancers dropped to the ground howling in pain and applying their hands to their "wounds". As their fellow agents rushed to aid them, he finished off his address.
"And so the potential punishments have been demonstarted. Agents North and South Dakota, you two are commended for your aid. As a reward you two will have tomorrow off. I apologize for the pain but I had to exhibit the potential fates for Doctor Halsey and Director Church."
Poor Dakota twins, I have truly screwed them over. Good night. Would've submitted it sooner but the admins are claiming I violated protocol or something. Now on vacation in Canada.
I need suggestions for challenges. I already have one in mind.
Who should be in this fanfic? Should I continue this thing?
Oh, and there are two Noble Sixs. Or should I say Noble Six and Noble Seven. Six is the guy and is bulky and the stronger of the two, while Seven is the girl and is weaker than her brother, ableit more agile and accurate with a weapon. They're twins like South and North. Six is go loud and solo, while Seven is better socially and prefers brains over brawn. They wear identical armor and can only be distinguished by build, posture and voice. In their armor of course.
The other two new members of Noble Team are Rosenda and Thom. Rosenda is the sassy CQC/DMR expert while Thom is the cowboy like DMR/AR specialist and simultaneous jack-of-all-trades.
And yeah, Seven ratted out Director Church and Doctor Halsey for ice cream.

Access 12 Volts from a 24 Volt Battery
Homes with 24 volt battery systems sometimes need 12 volt power for:
DC motion detecting lights, Nicad battery rechargers, DeWalt/Makita cordless tool car chargers (AC tool chargers can burn out on non-sine wave inverters), notebook computer car lighter charge cords, cellular phones...
With the battery voltage balancer you can tap 12 volts from a midpoint of a 24 volt battery, and the balancer keeps all cells equally charged. Power transfers from the untapped portion of the battery to the 12 volt portion being tapped to maintain perfect balance. Because the equalizer has 24 hours a day to balance any 12 volt consumption, a 20 amp equalizer will balance intermittent use of much higher current than the rated 20 amp transfer rate. Since the battery supplies the 12 volt power directly, short 12 volt surges are not limited by the converter's 20 amp rating. If multiple strings of batteries are used be sure to "cross tie" at the 12 volt point.
These three battery balancers CANNOT act as two-way voltage converters, use a PPT model for that use..
EQ12/24-20 balances a 24 volt battery to use 12 volt power tap: covers 20 amp 12 volt load

The University of Nevada, Reno's Honors Program and the Northern Nevada International Center sponsored the first annual Northern Nevada Academic WorldQuest competition, held last month. Three teams from Reno High School and one team from McQueen High School participated in WorldQuest and the winning team from McQueen High School will represent northern Nevada at the national competition in Washington D.C. Sunday, April 26.
WorldQuest is an annual competition that quizzes high school students about international affairs topics. Students compete in teams of four and high schools can nominate multiple teams. The national competition is sponsored by the World Affairs Councils of America and more than 4,000 students compete each year in regional competitions hosted by local international affairs councils.
"The idea is to get high school students energized about international affairs," Daniel Villanueva, assistant director of the Honors Program, said. "We also hope to link these high achieving students to the Honors Program here and ultimately recruit them to the University of Nevada, Reno."
The competition consists of ten rounds with a total of 100 questions and gives students the platform to demonstrate their knowledge about international affairs.
"The day of the local competition, the students were collaborating really well and discussing international affairs on a high level," Villanueva said. "This kind of interaction is rarely seen at the high school level."
The winning teams from around the country have the chance to meet with diplomats, sit in on panels about international affairs and have discussions with topic experts in Washington D.C. in addition to representing their local chapter in the national competition.
Villanueva helped organize the WorldQuest competition in Las Vegas, Nev. for eight years prior to moving to Reno. He saw the opportunity to bring the competition to the northern Nevada community when he learned that Reno's local world affairs council chapter, the Northern Nevada International Center, was part of the University.
"I found in Las Vegas, and also here in Reno, that there are many students who are interested in international affairs," Villanueva said. "However, many students do not know how they can apply the topic to their daily lives or what careers are available to them in this field."
Villanueva, Carina Black, the executive director of the Northern Nevada International Center, and Amy Shannon, a librarian in the Mathewson-IGT Knowledge Center, helped mentor the high school students who competed in the competition. This year, several faculty members were willing to be mentors and as the competition continues to grow in recognition and number of participants, Villanueva hopes that more students will take advantage of the mentorship opportunity.
"My hope for the following years is to increase the number of teams and the professor-student interaction," Villanueva said. "This allows us to not only showcase the Honors Program to high achieving students but also the University and the vast number of opportunities it has to offer."
In January, the Honors Program and the Northern Nevada International Center also sponsored an Adult Academic WorldQuest as a fundraiser for the students advancing to the national competition. The event raised almost $1,000, which will be used to send the students from McQueen High School to Washington D.C. High school teachers and community members answered international affairs questions from last year's national competition.
The cost of holding the fundraiser and the cost for the promotion material was also partially covered by a grant the Honors Program received from the International Activities Committee at the University.
"We are very grateful to the International Activities Committee for providing us with the grant," Villanueva said.

Curtis Lazar couldn't help but look a year into the future.
"I want to lead," the Ottawa Senators prospect said when he was asked about playing for Canada in the 2015 world junior championship in Toronto and Montreal.
"If I'm in this tournament again next year, I want to bring out all the details. If you have a couple of bad shifts, you're not going to make a difference in the game and ultimately the tournament."
Canada had its second-youngest team in the history of the event in the 2014 tournament and finished fourth when it lost against Russia in the bronze-medal game on Sunday.

It was Kristen's week on Top Chef this week. During the challenge, cook's had to use Reynold's Wrap as a vessel for cooking dishes, and Kristen boldly went where no one else dared to go, making a sponge cake that guest judge Stephanie Izard and Padma both loved. She won the quickfire and immunity, becoming the only chef to not have to fight it out this week in a head-to-head battle.
Luckily, there was no gimmicky Reynold's Wrap involved in the final challenge, which had each of the chefs cooking a different type of berry dish for a berry festival. Brooke and Bart squared off, as did Danyelle and Josh, Stefan and John, Lizzie and Josie, and Micah and Sheldon. A few of the head-to-head battles ended up being close, but some of the contestants proved berries were just not their game. Stefan actually annihilated John this week, making a dish that exceeded expectations where John seriously had problems. Still, a worse offender was Josie, who had a line of like thirty people waiting at one point because she took so long to put her dish together. Additionally, her dish was bad, but Danyelle' s too-crunchy berry dish really did not work either, and she was sent packing.
Despite some major highs and some major lows in the head-to-head battles, it was Kristen's stand-alone dish that really stood out. Kristen pulled through with the win twice this week, and she's really starting to prove herself and stand out as one of the top players in the competition. Still, the wins and highs this season have been more widely dispersed than normal, and it should take a few more weeks of power ranking shuffling before the contestants truly determine where they stand.
The Top Chef Power Rankings are an ordered compilation of weekly lists put together by TV Blend writers Jessica Rawden and Mack Rawden. Each week after viewing the episode, they each rank the competitors in order. Eighteen points are given for a first place vote, and this week, nine were given for a last place vote. Eight competitors have already been eliminated (not counting those chopped in the early rounds); therefore, those people automatically occupy the bottom slots. Here is how this week's voting panned out, complete with analysis on how the contestants might fare moving forward.
The Favorites
#1) Sheldon Simeon (35): Sheldon was extremely confident going into his head-to-head against Micah last night, and he made the most of those assurances by solidly pounding his opponent. Mentally, he's arguably the most comfortable and stable chef left. He has full belief in himself and is willing to take chances without stupidly walking out onto dangerous limbs unnecessarily. With three highs, two quickfire wins and only one low, Sheldon has emerged as a force to be reckoned with in Season 10, and he's earned this top slot.
#2) John Tesar (34): John had a colossal failure of a week during the head-to-head challenge. Still, of the bottom five, I wouldn't have earmarked him to go home, and he didn't. John is always willing to take chances, and despite his flub this week, he probably has the most raw talent of any chef on the show. We'll have to wait and see if his drive will match next week and whether he can avoid distractions like too many chefs in too little space.
#3) Kristen Kish (33): Kristen had her best week yet on Top Chef and she's beginning to emerge as a favorite to win the competition. Her cake dish during the quickfire was ballsy and she created a great dish in the final challenge as well, when she could have laid back this week, due to her immunity. Kristen has been the female player that has been the most consistent throughout the competition, and if she keeps movie forward in the same confident manner, she might find herself in that top slot.
#4) Stefan Richter (30): It was another good, yet wholly uninspiring week for Stefan. He finished near the top of the pack during the quickfire and solidly bested John in the elimination challenge. That's far from a disappointment, but given his talent level, he really should have won something by now. It's time we stop giving him credit for his impressive run during his prior season and start measuring him by what we've seen this year, which has been good, not great.
#5) Brooke Williamson (28): Brooke cooked off against Bart this week and bested him with a s'more-esque dessert dish that had some yummy looking homemade marshmallow in it. I obviously did not partake in the dish, but it was certainly made a nice looking picture when shot with the camera. The dish wasn't enough to earn Brooke the win this week, but if we get to see more of the Brooke we saw last week, she too could easily move up in these rankings.

Discussion in 'Xbox Consoles' started by ics, Mar 23, 2007.
they said this a while ago that if blu-ray ends up winning then all they have to do is make an add-on like they did with the HD-DVD player
I don't see how the XBox could support Blu-ray. Why would Sony (their competitor and the creator of Blu-ray) give Microsoft the rights?
sony didnt make blu-ray, its just a format and more memory of a hddvd, bluray went with ps3 because the xbox 360 had chosed the format of HDDVD. Hello there is a Samsung bluray player.
from a VIDEO TAPE TO CD TO DVD TO HDDVD now TO BLU-RAY
Heh heh, you said add-on, and I just bought a Genesis/32X/SEGA CD combo...I just thought it was a funny coincidence, dont mind little old Fox.:cornut: :tard:
Sony made Blu-ray
They didn't make Blue Ray. Thats a very stupid comment to make. Thats like saying Xbox made HD DVD because they have it in their console =/
This whole ggraphic thing makes me mad it never used to be like this now it's the main focus
People should just watch movies
Sony did not create Blue-ray, but it's on the Blue-ray disc association. It has a financial stake in the success of Blue-ray disc media, so the more Blue-ray players out there, the better... even if it's on a microsoft device
...founded by Matsushita, Pioneer, Philips, Thomson, LG Electronics, Hitachi, Sharp, Samsung and Sony
yep its a joint effort for blue ray and hddvd... sony has tryed many times before to make there very own format and failed every time... this time everyone chipped in.. i doubt eaither will become a significant media format.. both will do so so in sales over the next 10 years and become obsolete in my opinion...
the problem with making your own format is you own the rights to it get greedy and charge everyone to use it and it fails... "see sony minidisk"
but with sales numbers the way they are now compared to when VHS,or DVD first came out looks like both are gonna bomb... they will get the companies by untill they figure out "on demand downloads" is what everyone wants.. aswell as a better media format than disk that can scratch and wear worse than any other format has ever...
ill bet money in the next 10 years the majority of people will buy DVR's "tivo" and some type of memory card then any disk format...

Fisherman rescued by helicopter from island in southeast SD lake
COLTON (AP) -- A fisherman who was blown out of his boat and wound up on an island was rescued by helicopter from a South Dakota lake early Saturday morning.
Authorities say search lights on the helicopter spotted the 67-year-old Sioux Falls man on Island Lake near Colton. The man was signaling for help by waving his arms.
The Sanford Health helicopter landed on the island and picked up the man. His condition is not known.
Authorities say the man was fishing on the lake Friday afternoon when strong winds knocked him out of his boat. He told rescuers he had been in the water for a couple of hours before making his way to shore.
The man was wearing a life jacket.

PYONGYANG, North Korea, April 15 (UPI) -- A looming economic crisis caused North Korean officials to tone down celebrations Tuesday marking the birthday of the late Kim Il Sung, analysts said.
North Korean leader Kim Jong Il visited the palace where his late father is embalmed, the Yonhap news agency said Tuesday, citing reports from the North Korean state news media.
Kim Yong Nam, the ceremonial national leader, lauded Kim's wish to build "a powerful and prosperous socialist state," reminding observers of a pledge to boost North Korea's sagging economy by 2012, the late leader's 100th birthday.
Pyongyang toned down the celebrations Tuesday by not including the traditional display of 100,000 gymnasts and without the parade of foreign artists praising Kim.
Aid groups and North Korean experts said the measure signals a worsening crisis in North Korea. Some South Korean aid groups predict massive deaths from starvation could develop as early as May.

Comparative Analysis & Evaluation of Euclidean Distance Function and Manhattan Distance Function Using K-Means Algorithm
Clustering is division of data into groups of similar objects. Each group, called a cluster, consists of objects which are similar between themselves and different as compared to objects of the other groups. In cluster, analysis is the organization of a collection of patterns into cluster based on similarity. This paper is intended to study and compare Euclidean distance function and Manhattan distance function by using k-means algorithm. This distance functions are compared according to number of iterations and within sum of squared error. Some conclusions that are extracted belong to the time complexity and accuracy.

TEMPE - No. 3 Sabino ran into some hard hitters and a tough pitcher in the third round of the state tournament and finds itself in an unfamiliar position - having to come back from a big loss.
Randy Dalrymple (5-1) gave up eight runs and nine hits over 2 2/3 innings Thursday night as the Sabercats fell into the losers bracket with a 15-4 loss in five innings to No. 6 Saguaro in the Division II state baseball tournament at Tempe Diablo Stadium.
Saguaro meets Salpointe on Saturday at 4 p.m. at Camelback Ranch, and Sabino (25-6) will have to beat No. 2 Notre Dame at 7 p.m. at Surprise Stadium on Saturday to stay alive.
Sabino hadn't had to deal with being blown out this season, so Saturday's elimination game will prove interesting.
"This is new territory for us. Now, they have earned the right to come. They are the ones that hit, catch, throw," Sabino coach Rod Allen said of his players. "We'll see. If they want it bad enough, they will find a way to compete. That's all we ask."
Saguaro got out of the blocks quickly, scoring four times in the first. After Sabino got three back in the second, Saguaro scored four more in the third, chasing starter Dalrymple.
"He didn't have the curveball for strikes," Allen said. "When you face a team that can hit this well, you better have a couple of pitches that you can throw for strikes. They sat back and waited, and they knew the pitch he could throw for strikes was coming, and they hit the ball well."

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for SustainUS, Inc., Quincy, MA, USA
The amount and quality of the work that SustainUS produces is quite high, particularly since it is largely a volunteer led organization. I've had the opportunity to talk with previously engaged individuals and they uniformly provide clear examples of how their engagement with SustainUS helped clarify or enhance future professional goals. SustainUS's efforts have also been helpful with give capacity to groups around the globe.
One area where SustainUS is working on, and needs further institutionalization, is capturing what it acheives.
More Feedback
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
the capacity as a Board member, but the reports back for committees and conversation with alumni have been very impressive and encouraging.
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
want there to be better capacity to collect, store, and disseminate the work that SustainUS does, for others to learn about this organization and its benefits.

Miss. college GOP chairman switches to Democrat over Tea Party 'extremists'
The chairman of the Mississippi Federation of College Republicans (MFCR) said on Monday that he had resigned, and was in the process of switching his party affiliation to Democrat because of the extremism of Tea Party members.
In a resignation letter obtained by The Clarion-Ledger, Evan Alvarez says that the Republican Party had allowed Tea Party members too much control, "and because of that, the platform of the Republican Party has shifted too far to the right in my opinion."
The trouble began last month when MFCR member Kolby Busby broke the rules by using the organization's name in campaign robocalls for tea party-backed U.S. Senate candidate Chris McDaniel. The MFCR has a strict policy of not taking sides in Republican primaries.
The MFCR Executive Board voted to move forward with the impeachment of Busby after charging him with negligence in the performance of his constitutional duties.
But the Saturday impeachment hearing turned to chaos when 35 tea party and McDaniel supporters showed up and started yelling, according to Alvarez. Eventually the mayhem forced the meeting to be postponed, even though MFCR leaders had decided to only ask for an apology from Busby.
"When I ran for Chairman in the spring, I ran to be Chairman of the Mississippi Federation of College REPUBLICANS, not the Mississippi Federation of College 'Tea Partiers,'" Alvarez wrote in his resignation letter. "Also, I believe that the Republican Party has allowed these groups of extremist to have too much of a voice and because of that, the platform of the Republican Party has shifted too far to the right in my opinion."
Alvarez pointed out that society would be "crippled" if the Tea Party succeeded in enacting the "drastic cuts" in federal spending that it wanted.
He also said that the "hatred and cruel words and actions of the far right extremists" would continue to hurt the party's chances with "Women, African Americans, Hispanics, and other minorities in our country."
"I simply cannot be apart of organization that have members who support these far right extremist views, much less be the Chairman of the organization," he concluded.
In an ad for his campaign to be chairman earlier this year, Alvarez had said that the "party must focus on unity."
"Such unity is essential for a thriving community within the Republican Party," he asserted.

CLAYS CREEK. Clays Creek rises near the Bell county line, a half mile south of Davilla in western Milam County (at 30°46' N, 97°16' W) and runs east for twelve miles to its mouth on the Little River, nine miles west of Cameron (at 30°48' N, 97°08' W). The surrounding rolling to flat terrain with local shallow depressions is surfaced by dark, calcareous clays and sandy loams that support mesquite, cacti, and grasses in the upper reaches of the creek and water-tolerant hardwoods and conifers in the middle and lower reaches. The creek is said to have been named for Nestor Clay, who was wounded in an Indian fight there in 1835.

August 17th, 2010
I\\\'m 18 yrs old and I want to have a baby. Yes, I know I\\\'m young. But My period was due August 16th. So I\\\'m 2 days late. Now in July my period came on the 19th but went off the 21st. On the 24th of July, there was what I thought was spotting. It only lasted one day. I\\\'ve used ovulation calenders and it say I supposely ovulated late July, early August. I had unprotected sex all those days. 2 days late with my period, I\\\'m tired more, I\\\'m hungry more, it\\\'s hard to make a bowel movement, and I get some pain in my stomach. Oh and also I\\\'m having this white discharge. It doesn\\\'t smell or anything so I know it\\\'s not a infection. So with these things, is there a possibility I can be pregnant? I\\\'m anxoius to know. My partner and I have been trying for some time.

Hi! Many thanks for your question on eHealth forum!
Yes, there is some possibility that you could be pregnant though do not keep too high hopes. Take a pregnancy test and see. Other than that, please consult a gynecologist and rule out PCOD, diabetes, hypothyroidism and hormonal imbalance as the cause of scanty or irregular periods. Hope this helps. Take care!

Bayern win 2-0 at Augsburg; Wolfsburg stun Dortmund; Ibisevic's hat-trick lifts Stuttgart
Augsburg 0 – Bayern Munich 2 (Bundesliga, December 8, 2012) Five minutes before the break, Augsburg's Gibril Sankoh was penalised for handball inside the box and Thomas Muller stepped up and converted the penalty. Bayern made the game safe when Mario Gomez doubled the lead, two minutes after he came from the bench at the 62nd minute.
Borussia Dortmund 2 – Wolfsburg 3 (Bundesliga, December 8, 2012) Dortmund had a bright start on home soil as Marco Reus's free kick beat everyone to nestle in the net in the 6th minute. Things changed at the 35th minute when Marcel Schmelzer was sent off with a straight red card due to a supposed handball, and Wolfsburg's Diego converted the penalty to level. Wolfsburg went one better five minutes later when Naldo volleyed home. Dortmund won a penalty at the 61st minute, which Jakub Blaszczykowski converted for 2-2, but in the 73rd minute a through-ball by Diego found Bas Dost who had all time and space to slot in the winner.
Stuttgart 3 – Schalke 1 (Bundesliga, December 8, 2012) Stuttgart wrapped up their third consecutive win following their 3-1 victory over Schalke, thanks to the hat-trick by Vedad Ibisevic.

My neighborhood isn't very crowded. Near me there are only 3 houses and all of them are vacation houses. One of my neighbors is here almost every day but other two neighbors are rarely or almost never here. Both houses have grapevine in front of the house and my family takes care of them while our neighbors are away.
Croats, especially in eastern parts of Croatia grow as we call them "brajda" in front of our houses.
Brajda is grapevine grown on wire trellis and it's usually grown out of just one or two trunks. My grandfather in Slavonija had a brajda that was made out of only one grapevine and was almost 10 meters long providing shade through whole porch. Here in western Croatia brajda is made the similar way, but people plant more trunks to make them. Also vines are usually just a decorative wall and aren't used for shade but only to grow grapes. Brajda is made over the years and usually in 5th year it grows to full length and it's maintained in that way.
The advantage of having a brajda is that they take very little space and give more grapes out of one vine.
Our neighbors brajda is a perfect example of crowded brajda which is grown in western Croatia.
On 5 meters of wire there are 3 vines that grow up and cover the wires. Once they cover the last wire vines are chopped to the wire length to induce growth of side branches.
Our other neighbor has a more typical brajda with only 2 vines that cover the same length of wire that our other neighbor has.
This one is less thick, also since our neighbor hasn't been coming much brajda has now become a home to little birds.
Our brajda is very young. This is the second year we have it. Previous vine froze during one very strong winter so we had to get another vine. Although it's still young and most branches are still new grown ones we still got a nice amount of grapes on it. In a month we should have our first grapes.
