AstraZeneca has bought the US lung drug specialist Pearl Therapeutics for $1.15bn (£740m) as it continues to resuscitate its product pipeline through deals.
The drug maker is hoping to restore its fortunes after a string of late-stage research failures. It has also seen a number of big sellers fall out of patent, and its stalwarts Nexium and Crestor are set to lose their crucial US patent protection in 2014 and 2016 respectively.
The purchase of Pearl Therapeutics will give Astra a stronger foothold in the market for lung treatments by giving it access to a potential new treatment for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, which is in late-stage development. The takeover is a signal that the company's chief executive, Pascal Soriot, pictured, believes its respiratory business is a core growth area.
Astra will pay an initial $560m, plus more if certain targets are met.
Mr Soriot said: "Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease continues to increase worldwide, and there is a growing need for the next generation of inhaled combination products.
"Pearl's novel formulation technology, together with its development products and specialist expertise are a great complement to AstraZeneca's long-established capabilities in respiratory disease, one of our core therapy areas."
The company has been in dealmaking mood for some time. Last month, it bought the heart specialist Omthera Pharmaceuticals for £293m. Omthera uses fish oils to produce treatments for people who are obese, diabetic or suffering from cardiovascular disease. Its big hope is Epanova, a pill aimed at lowering the level of triglyceride in blood.
Astra's shares rose 6.5p to 3,308p.
Separately the Irish drug maker Elan rejected another bid from Royalty Pharma yesterday, and said it was assessing inquiries from other interested parties.
Last week Royalty raised its bid to $8bn, the third increase in five months. Elan said the gap between what it believed to be the underlying value of the company and the new bid remained significant.

After the first couple of weeks, a weird thing happened... I started waking up coughing every night at exactly the same time (4:30 AM). Otherwise, I was fine. The coughing fits were just as severe as earlier, complete with vomiting, etc., but only occurred once a day, usually for 30-45 minutes at a time (brief breaks between spasms of 5 or 6 coughs, so I did get a chance to breathe).
So yeah, I'd call it unpleasant, but it wasn't a harrowing, life-altering experience by any means. It sucked -- but I certainly never felt my life was in danger or anything like that.
I'm really curious as to whether this bout of pertussis conferred permanent immunity on me or not.
P.S. No cracked ribs here, but I definitely coughed harder than I ever have in my life, and aside from the vomiting/peeing, I blew out a blood vessel in my eye.
|Since pertussis has shifted to older age groups [11,56] in immunized populations...it has been suggested that B. pertussis has adapted to the host population with waning immunity, in order to maintain the bacterial reservoir among older hosts [18,57].
Aside from the same studies you folks have posted, all I have is a very recent anecdote.
DD (6 y/o) picked up pertussis, probably during a plane trip where she sat with another family. I caught it from her.
It was definitely unpleasant for both of us, but I wouldn't call it "horrific". The biggest issue was the coughing fits (paroxysms), mostly at night. There was a lot of lost sleep for everyone. It was milder for her than it was for me. Neither of us had the "whoop".
I wonder if our unborn babes are conferred immunity, at least for a while.

US Stocks Set For Beating Amid Auto Bankruptcy Fears
Wall Street was bracing for a bloodbath Monday morning in New York after a White House task force gave General Motors' and Chrysler's comeback plans a thumbs down and cautioned that bankruptcy may be the next step for both.
General Motors' chairman and chief executive officer Rick Wagoner was forced out and is stepping down with immediate effect. The Obama Administration will continue to provide operating funds for the next few weeks, but has given the companies a final deadline, threatening bankruptcy if the beleaguered auto giants do not step up their efforts to reorganize.
As of 6:15 am ET, the S&P Futures were down 19 points, the NASDAQ Futures were down 29 points, and the Dow Futures were down 180 points.
Stocks pulled back on Friday as a relief rally from the previous few session ran out of steam. March was shaping up to be a solid month, with the major averages moving out of technical bear market territory, but this is shaping up to be a brutal week, with the news from the Detroit completely taking the wind out of Wall Street sails.
The major averages all ended Friday's session firmly in negative territory after ending Thursday's trading at one-month closing highs. The Dow closed down 148.38 points or 1.9 percent at 7,776.18, the Nasdaq closed down 41.80 points or 2.6 percent at 1,545.20 and the S&P 500 closed down 16.92 points or 2 percent at 815.94.
Monday, Biogen Idec, Inc said it named Robert Hamm as its Chief Operating Officer, or COO, effective immediately. Hamm, who has been Executive Vice President, Pharmaceutical Operations & Technology at the company since 2007, replaces Hans Peter Hasler, who is leaving the company.
Energy stocks were set to tumble after the price of oil dropped nearly $2 to $50.50 a barrel in early electronic dealing. The dollar was taking a beating versus the yen, but was higher versus the euro and sterling.
While there are no major economic reports due to be released on Monday, there are several key reports that will be released over the course of the week, including the Labor Department's closely watched monthly employment report on Friday.
President Obama will speak Monday before heading across the Atlantic to the London summit of the G20 group of industrialized and emerging economies.
Ensuring that there is concerted action around the globe to jump start economic growth and that we are advancing a regulatory reform agenda to ensure that this crisis never happens again will be the key messages of the London trip, White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said Saturday.
Asian stocks were pummeled on Monday, with Tokyo's Nikkei dropping 390 points and the Hang Seng of Hong Kong losing 663 points.
In European intraday dealing the FTSE of the UK was down 99 points, the CAC of France was down 149 points, and the DAX of Germany was down 81 points.

I printed the stamp on a Makerbot Replicator Gen5. Was unable to use the Print Studio slicer as I couldn't connect it to the Makerbot. The file that it output for the Replicator 2 couldn't be read by the Gen5. I'm sure it was something I was doing wrong. I printed the file directly from Fusion to the makerbot with no trouble. Used a little too much wax on the test but it works.View Instructable »
I just made a stamp with the latter ''A". I figured if i were ever to use a wax stamp that would be the one.View Instructable »

Back in 2012 I started a tradition of rounding up the 100 best, most interesting websites I came across throughout the year and putting them into a list for other people to enjoy. And every year since then this series has always been the most popular content on DailyTekk. So now that I've been doing this for 5 years I thought I might as well pick my top 10 websites out of the top 500 I've already collected — that makes this list the top 2% of my favorite websites ever and it's literally 5 years of researching and curating in the making. And just so everyone is clear, once a site is listed it never gets listed again. Oh ya, and it was really, REALLY hard to choose just 2 favorites from each year, so make sure to check out all 5 lists: 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2016.
So starting back in 2012 I discovered Uncrate and it's since become a real favorite of mine. Uncrate filters the world's coolest stuff for me in categories like gear, style, tech and more and it's a quick way to catch up on the best of the best products for guys (and they have a great app now as well).
In 2012 I also came across Twisted Sifter which showcases the coolest, most interesting photos in the world. If it's visually interested, you're going to find it here. This is the only viral content site that made this list because it's in a league of it's own in terms of content and quality. And I love the Shirk Report, which is good for a guaranteed laugh each week.
And then in 2013 I came across SoulPancake which is the brainchild of The Office star Rainn Wilson. It's a very unique site that talks about important topics in really creative ways. Here you'll find everything from the now well-known Kid President to videos that explore people's last days. If you don't want to numb your life with content that just wastes your time, this is a great site to visit.
In 2013 I also came across The Art of Manliness which I happened to feature in yesterday's top 10 podcasts of 2016 video. Like I said in that video, I appreciate that this site provides content geared toward guys that's truly useful and informative and above all non-sleazy....

Wonderful Experience with Dr. Antell - New York, NY
I had a fantastic experience working with Dr. Antell, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a plastic surgeon. I consulted Dr. Antell regarding two procedures to my face -- buccal fat removal as well as micro-liposuction under my chin. Any reservations I had about the surgery went away during my initial consultation; I was immediately put at ease by his kind demeanor and... READ MORE

Our item on Jon Gruden replacing Tony Kornheiser on Monday Night Football drew about 50 comments in the first 90 minutes after that news broke today. And the consensus is that people are really hoping the door doesn't whack Kornheiser's backside on the way out.
The closest thing to a compliment for Kornheiser came from Quit Crying, who wrote: "Kornheiser was bad, but no one is as bad as Keith Olbermann on Sunday Night Football."
Best of the rest:
Schwabcycler: "If Gruden is really funny and smart that's two more things he's got that Tony doesn't."
MyResponse: "Tony was the reason I finally just turned the sound off and watched the game; way too much idiotic, senseless banter. Why does MNF need 3 in the booth?"
DiamondDogs: "And with this one move . . . single-handedly saved MNF."
House of cards: "Finally, one of the most irritating and annoying MNF gas bags has been replaced with someone experienced and knowledgeable about football . . . Now, if they could only get rid of the stupid celebrity half-time nonsense."
And from Coastalman: "The overnight ratings just went up 15%."

You can either plot routes manually in the system, import .GPX files you may already have, or record the route track on the ViewRanger app then convert it to a route.
If you wish to import large volumes of routes regularly, you can create a server connection to our platform. If you are a content owner or publisher, and are interested in bringing your content to the ViewRanger platform please contact us: email@example.com.
Please note that if you are a brand or tourism organisation and are self-publishing content, you will need to email us – email@example.com – to make yourself known to us, so we can flag you as a 'brand'.

1994 BMW 325i Questions
Get answers to questions about your 1994 BMW 325i at RepairPal. Find solutions, diagnose problems and get back on the road.Refine by vehicle
No water pumping through upper and lower radiator hoses
i took engine out of my1992, 325is and put it into my 1994bmw325ic,but it now won't start.why won't it start now
I ought a 94 BMW 325i about a month ago. The has been running and driving fine but the on board computer was always telling me to "check coolant level". When I did, the coolant level hadn't changed and the car never overheated so I wasn't sure what was going on. Yesterday I was parked with the car running when I noticed my check engine light was one and my car was over heating. No sooner than I notice that I hear a pop followed by a lot of hissing and steam from the engine compartment. I kill the engine and step out side and there is antifreeze all over the street but none in the engine compartment. After letting the car sit for a while I opened the radiator cap and started adding water to see where the car was leaking from and I found it leaking from 3 hoses near the brake master cylinder. What do I do next?
seems to work fine any other time
I already took off the vibration damper and took out the bolts on the timing cover and removed the head and i need to take the crank shaft bolt and get the cover loosened
MY HEATER DOESN'T DEfRoST AND MY AC DOESN'T BLOW COLD AIR LIKE IT SHOULD/USE TO. WHAT'S GOING ON?
They said it is a drain plug leak .I am to have car oil change done soon now that I am here . What type oil should I use? and also what do they have to do to fix drain plug leak ? I am not so sure about these lube centers???? I also now need to get inspection and sometime Brake light sensor goes on, I think previous owner put on brakes that do not register with sensor . Will I fail inspection with a Brake light sensor warning light going on sometimes It is not brakes they work fine ! are new ! Donna
he convertible top is up drivers side front and rear windows do not meet,when top down they meet perfect.passenger side does fine
fuel gauge shows empty and temp shows hot
i have a 1994 Bmw 325i and have just had to change the battery in the car. National Tire and Battery sold me a battery that is not the exact battery that was in the car, but they assure me it would work just fine. my car does start better than ever but now my temp guage starts to rise almost immediately and im wondering if its something to do with the battery itself or if its something to do with the car resetting after having changed out the battery.
I mysteriously got locked out of my 94 325i.
All was well a week ago the car started fine still in driveway. When we tried to unlock the door with fobs (2) they both failed to unlock any doors.
It also has rendered the key useless on both doors & trunk. I have heard that there was an issue with the door lock actuator...that caused an entire lock out.
Any help...signed perplexed
i am going to fix it myself but cant find a good draw out online to tell me where it is i need to look
fuel gauge, tachometer, and temp gauge, turn signals and brake lights do not work
It is located in the throttle housing
its bogging when i turn, use a/c or when it bloody well wants to..got sea foam in it now. fuel filter is next if i can find the stupid thing

Charlotte Observer relies on flawed Factcheck.org claims to criticize VoteVets ad
Blog ››› ››› JAMISON FOSER
The Charlotte Observer reports on a new VoteVets ad:
Meanwhile, a veterans' group is spending $200,000 on TV ads saying [NC Sen. Elizabeth] Dole voted against body armor for troops.
The ad by VoteVets.org features a man identified as an Iraq war veteran firing shots from an AK-47 through a flak jacket given out early in the war. He also fires into more modern body armor, which stops the shots. It claims Dole twice voted against the more modern armor.
The ad appears to be the same one used in 2006 in a Virginia Senate race. According to the watchdog site FactCheck.org, the votes came on a 2003 amendment that would have appropriated just over $1 billion for unspecified "National Guard and Reserve Equipment" but made no mention of body armor. The amendment lost on a generally party-line vote.
The group called the ad false.
Problem is, FactCheck.org got it wrong, as Media Matters documented at the time.
Here's the short version:
But as Media Matters for America noted in response to FactCheck's September 20 analysis, [FactCheck.org director Brooks] Jackson's assertion that "[t]here has never been a vote on body armour" is false. Allen opposed an October 2003 amendment offered by Sen. Christopher Dodd (D-CT), which would have provided additional funding explicitly for body armor. Moreover, Landrieu repeatedly stated on the House floor that the bill would ensure that National Guard soldiers had "helmets" and other "force protection" equipment intended to "minimize causalities." And in a March 26, 2003, press release, Landrieu further explained that the bill "targets shortfalls identified by the National Guard and Reserve in their Unfunded Requirement lists," including the "shortage of helmets, tents, bullet-proof inserts, and tactical vests."

A paradigm shift of multicultural proportions
Virtually every industry sector needs to start preparing for when the 'minorities' become the majority
The year 2017 will be a breakthrough time for many U.S. companies as they come to the realization that in order to compete and grow, they must take advantage of the fastest-growing demographic and market, which remains largely untapped by many businesses, despite its potential. Retailers, sports, nonprofits and other organizations will finally come to grips as they recognize the sheer size and impact of the Latin market.
At 56.5 million, or 17.6% of the population, lies a market opportunity expected to grow to $1.7 trillion by 2020. Not far behind is the second largest-growing group, the Asian market, reaching $1.1 trillion by the same year. We are progressing to a time when the United States will be a minority-majority country. While a great number of the population keeps aging, that trend is reversing and producing a paradigm shift of unprecedented multicultural proportions as Latins and other minorities tend to have bigger families.
Dramatic shifts in population are good for business as they energize and stimulate the economy by enticing corporations to stay competitive and reach new targets. These fluctuations can also create temporary chaos for local businesses while they try to cope with the quick changing needs of their employee base, customers and partners. Many companies and the healthcare industry are struggling with limited or complete lack of resources that allow them to serve and reach multicultural markets. There is not a one-size-fits-all solution.
Minnesota is a resilient, dynamic and progressive state, open to new things and quick to adapt to changing conditions, but it is not up to speed with the level of understanding needed to deal with diverse demographics. Taking advantage of the current trends requires thinking outside the box and a close study of what is going on in this area and beyond. Strategy dictates looking at many factors affecting current business practices and the economy, and other strong influences such as millennials, changing tendencies in PR and marketing and social media, consumer behavior and perception, and more.

Quick strategies for companies and entrepreneurs to reach new talent, clients or markets
- Integrate more diversity into management and executive board
- Establish a multicultural community advisory board
- Achieve cultural competence and take a crash course on Latin business etiquette
- Look for specific talent in Latin or Asian professional organizations
- Join local international or global organizations with expats and members from business and foreign dignitaries and diplomat sectors
- Hire a multicultural workforce, form internal groups, and tap into specific talents, conduct ideation sessions and innovate with incentive-driven competitions
- Integrate bilingual systems and multicultural understanding education within strategic planning and deliver this information from the top down
- Hire strategic consultants with big visions and backgrounds in international business and global travel experience who are multilingual and multicultural
- Make a deliberate effort to adapt internal systems to supporting the needs of a diversified employee base
- Reach new clients with bilingual or multilingual communications via social media marketing campaigns, blogs and interactive press releases
- Establish a bilingual or multilingual presence online
- Tap into the insight of executives who travel internationally

"Tearing down monuments is what the Taliban does, that's what ISIS does – we don't do that in America."
Mayor Greg Fischer of Louisville, Kentucky made the decision to remove a confederate monument from city-owned property, igniting protests. A judge has now blocked the removal, due to a temporary restraining order filed by Everett Corley, who is a Republican candidate for Congress.
Those in favor of removing the monument say it honors those who wanted to maintain slavery and that it represets a painful chapter in history. Corley said it was erected to honor veterans and should remain. An attorney involved in the lawsuit said the mayor violated multiple laws, including not going through the proper procedures regarding historic places.
The president of the Neighborhood Planning & Preservation group said "We need to understand our history," and added, "If you bleach away the complexity of our common past, it is difficult to perceive how complicated and horrible things were and remain."
The backhoe was already in place to dig it up when the judge blocked the removal. The mayor said he doesn't want to destroy the monument – only move it to a different location.
The attorney for the plaintiffs said, "We expect our elected officials to follow the law. The mayor has not followed the law," he said. "All we want is a fair hearing, all we want is to let the people know that this is part of our heritage, and you can't just erase history by tearing down monuments. That's what the Taliban does, that's what ISIS does. We don't do that in America."

Irvine Network Monitoring and Security Management Solutions
Irvine, California, has a thriving economy that attracted numerous businesses to the city. The economy and the business conditions are great for both small startups and larger corporate enterprises. According to BusinessWeek, the city is the fifth happiest place to live in the US for young professionals. The fact, coupled with the low unemployment and crime rates, makes the city of Irvine a perfect place for professionals seeking employment and for young entrepreneurs.
Network Security Management for Irvine Companies
Are you an Irvine business owner? Looking for an Irvine network management provider will be determining for the efficiency of business processes. With the raise of new technology and mobile communication, the IT threats for US businesses have grown exponentially, increasing the demand for IT network security services. Keeping a network protected against the most common types of threats can be challenging, which is why you should consider working with an Irvine network management provider.
In order to ensure compliance and safeguard a business from sophisticated online threats, businesses in city should look for a service provider of network monitoring and management to maintain security solutions like some of the following:
- DrWorx: this is a data backup and disaster recovery solution for Windows servers. It can be vitally important for the protection of corporate data and files.
- MailWorx: an anti-spam filter that is designed especially for the needs of corporate entities. It provides reliable protection of malware that can otherwise easily access the IT network.
- FireWorx: this 24/7 firewall management service is compatible with a wide range of security appliances.
- PatchWorx: comprehensive Irvine patch management solution that ensures efficient patch implementation in the corporate network.
- StaffWorx: a 24/7 advanced infrastructure support and staff augmentation service that provides scalable possibilities for all companies.
The majority of IT threats today utilize weak points of entry in the corporate networks. Working with an experienced Irvine network management provider will be sufficient for the elimination of these week points. This is the basis of reliable, quality IT network security services.
Benefits of Professional IT Security, Patch Management and Network Monitoring
Technology is moving forward and companies get the option to choose among numerous new possibilities. This increased diversity has also led to the appearance of innovative IT security threats.
A modern business network usually includes the cloud and a multitude of mobile devices that employees need for the completion of various important processes. Keeping devices and data protected becomes even more challenging with such possibilities.
Many small and medium-sized companies lack substantial IT resource. Working with an Irvine network management provider like Alvaka becomes the best possibility under such circumstances. Modern network monitoring software improves corporate processes but it brings a range of new threats to the scene. Choosing the right professionals to maintain network security can result in better performance and it can prevent significant losses resulted to data corruption and system failures.

Haha! That photo! Those dresses are not really the Battersby girls, are they?
I'd love to see Toyah back. Along with Eva, it would help provide a wider family support unit for Simon and Leanne. I'd love to see her return with some sort of professional qualification.

The second-order differential equation which expresses the equilibrium condition of an electron swarm in a uniform electric field in a gas, the electrons suffering both elastic and inelastic collisions with the gas molecules, is solved by the Jeffreys or W.K.B. method of approximation. The distribution function F($\epsilon $) of electrons of energy $\epsilon $ is obtained immediately in a general form involving the elastic and inelastic collision cross-sections and without any restriction on the range of E/p (electric strength/gas pressure) save that introduced in the original differential equation. In almost all applications the approximation is likely to be of high accuracy, and easy to use. Several of the earlier derivations of F($\epsilon $) are obtained as special cases. Using the function F($\epsilon $) an attempt is made to relate the Townsend ionization coefficient $\alpha $ to the properties of the gas in a more general manner than hitherto, using realistic functions for the collision cross-section. It is finally expressed by the equation $\alpha $/p = A exp (-Bp/E) in which A and B are functions involving the properties of the gas and the ratio E/p. The important coefficient B is directly related to the form and magnitude of the total inelastic cross-section below the ionization potential and can be evaluated for a particular gas once the cross-section is known experimentally. The present theory shows clearly the influence of E/p on both A and B, a matter which has not been satisfactorily discussed previously. The theory is illustrated by calculations of F($\epsilon $) and $\alpha $/p for hydrogen over a range of E/p from 10 to 1000. The agreement between the calculated results and recent reliable observations of $\alpha $/p is surprisingly good considering the nature of the calculations and the wide range of E/p.

Single motherhood may be taking its toll on you. As a single mother, you may feel all alone, with a full time job, running your home, educating and taking care of your kids(s) and the whole lot! You may be a single mother by choice or due to various factors beyond control which may be attributed to fate or God's will.
However, do not lose heart! This is not the end of the world. Remember, there are many more unfortunate people out there who do not even have a roof over their heads or food or medical facilities especially in poor countries.
Lets see how you can handle all these responsibilities and more without getting tired! Remember, its all in the mind.
Single Motherhood – Top Tips To Live A Happy Life
Balance Work And Home
The most important challenge for a single mother is balancing work and day to day activities of children including packing lunches, school, day care, home work, dinners and so on. First and foremost, make a time table. It sounds boring, but is the most effective tool of time management. That way, you can keep track of several activities and make sure you have not missed out on any thing. Mark important dates, activities, bill due dates, reminders in a monthly planner and stick it onto the refrigerator using magnets. (We don't want ugly looking adhesive bits on the refrigerator door).
Single Motherhood – Cooking Tips
Buy fresh food/ingredients for making easy to prepare meals. If you can afford it, employ a good maid/cook who will come when you are around and finish off her work. Let her prepare both lunch and dinner which you can warm later, thereby saving you time in the evening. You can use this time to be with your children. The quality of time you spend with them matters and not the number of hours. If its not possible to employ a cook, prepare dinners and lunches in the morning and refrigerate. You can always warm it again
You can get a whole lot of recipes for easy to prepare meals, here:
Quick recipes for single mothers
Quick n Easy recipes by Tarla Dalal
Build A Strong Social Circle
A single mother must be part of a social circle. Having good friends is an essential part of life, especially if you are a single mother. Establish a good social circle. Make good friends. It may be your neighbor, old friends or your mom's friends or the nice lady at the store down the street. You can get lots of valuable information from them like reliable day care, creche, nannys, after school tuition teachers, doctors and child psychologists in your area etc. You can also get information about new jobs and other helpful information. Maintain good relations with friends. Being a single mother is not easy, but if you are emotionally strong everything is like a gentle breeze. Friends and colleagues give a lot of emotional and mental support.
Deal With Absence Of A Father
The absence of a male role model plays a very important part in the life of a child. But do not let that bother you. A single mother can effectively play the role of a good father. Put up a brave front in front of the children. Do not cry in front of them or yell at them when you are frustrated. Crying and venting out your frustration is necessary for a calm mind. But do it behind closed doors or speak with your close friends. Else it may affect the child's self-confidence. Take up activities with your children that they used to enjoy doing with their father.
Handle A Divorce Sensibly
A single mother who has gone thru a bitter lawsuit must refrain from talking to the children, bad things about their father. A divorce or lawsuit between the both of you does not necessarily mean that your spouse cannot be a good father to your children. If he has been a good father, let him meet the children if he or your children want it that way. Keep your grudges aside for the sake of your kids.
Do Some Financial Planning
Plan your finances well. A monthly planner will again be of great help. Reduce trips to the supermarket. Buy things that you actually need. Prepare a monthly budget.
Have Fun With Kids
Take your kids for a walk to the local park, or hang out with them on weekends. Show your love for your child. Praise him for good work and scold him for anything bad that he may do. Find a good child care center thru your social circle.
Do not carry work home. You will be stressed out, I'm sure. Read more on stress busting and relaxation techniques to feel better.
Single Motherhood – Not All That Bad
There is a whole new world waiting for you out there. Being a single mother is not a botheration or something that sparks off uncertainty about the future. Its a challenge, yes, but you have the potential to make the entire process a wonderful experience. Do not let your past trouble you and stop you from having a great future. A little bit of planning day to day activities, finances and having a great social circle will make you a confident and super single mother!

tg342 replied to tg342's topic in Windows 7Sorry if it's been over a month but I did the permissions thing and the thing wouldn't uninstall so I did another option which involved deleting the entire .NET folder but somehow it broke mcupdate.exe (after Windows Media Center failed as a whole) despite the fact that I was able to install MSE successfully for the first time in months. I don't know what exactly is causing this but I do find it odd because this is supposed to be a separate component from Windows and yet after getting replaced by the same files, it somehow breaks... Maybe I need to uninstall WMC first, any suggestions? It did work but I don't know how to get both MSE and now WMC working at the same time. EDIT: Reverted back to previous system restore before I deleted the files, somehow it installed fine. Maybe the permission thing worked after all. Weird... Don't know what happened but I'm lucky to have both of them working at the same time. What an odd evening.
tg342 replied to tg342's topic in Windows 7I don't know, I don't even know where the .net folder is. I did what you suggested and I still get the error message, even after deleting all of the registry files; is there anything else I can do?
tg342 replied to tg342's topic in Windows 7I got a log, I also got one from the attempts to uninstall .NET Framework 3.5; files follow. logs.zip
tg342 posted a topic in Windows 7Hi. I've been having problems with MSE recently and I decided to reinstall it but I've come into a couple of problems; first, I couldn't seem to uninstall the program, instead resorting to a brute force method to remove it, secondly I keep getting the error (0x80070645) whenever I try to install. I don't know how I can get it to produce a log but I don't know what's happening that's causing this error to happen. I checked to see if the update key was there to remove but no luck, I cleaned up and reinstalled various .NET frameworks. I even ran sfc /scannow but there is nothing wrong. I don't know what else to do besides reformatting (which I really don't want to to.) and everything I tried just places me at a brick wall; what am I supposed to do? Also of note, I can't seem to remove .NET Framework 3.5 from my computer to instal it via Add/Remove programs, it always seems to fail at 98% reverting all of the changes it has done. Again, I have cleaned up the install, I have ran ComboFix, I ran sfc /scan now but nothing seems to work, any suggestions?

Mumbai Indians, led by India's iconic cricketer Sachin Tendulkar, is the strong favourites for the title. But Shane Warne-inspired Royals mauled them two days ago due to the batting flop show.
But the hosts would fancy their chances against Punjab, who were struggling to keep pace with the winning ways.
"I think they have got some depth in their battling line up as well, - people like (Dinesh) Karthik coming further down the order. He hasn''t got many (runs though). And they have got David (Hussey) who plays down the order as well.
"So there are plenty of guys, we will come up with ideas for all of them, but if you get wickets upfront it does put the team under pressure particularly if the middle order has had not of much hit," said Shaun Pollock, mentor of "Mumbai Indians" (MI).
On the other hand, the success graph of the Punjab outfit has meandered up and down. They have a 50 per cent success rate and their loss against Kolkata Knights Riders (KKR) was dampener.
"It will be a new game and different conditions, so both teams are looking to go out there and try to implement their game plan as best they can. I think team that is most consistent over the whole game will probably come out wining," said Jason Gillespie, bowling coach of ''Kings XI Punjab''.
MI were overtaken by KKR at the top of table on the basis of net run rate.

Comments about Impact Soft and Natural Creator 4 Socket 2 Light Kit:
I'm very happy with this product. I use it primarily to light video recording for an online course I provide. I was considering buying similar less expensive kits, but many of the reviews for products in lower price ranges described the flimsy nature of the stands, the breaking of plastic clamps and other parts, and not being able to replace them. Though the prices were tempting, I figured if it broke, I would just be throwing the money away. So in the end, I decided to spend a bit more on a "first" kit.
So far, I'm happy. It was easy to set up. The stands are made of metal, though the clasps and knobs are plastic. Fortunately, they are more along the lines of "rubberized" plastic which is fairly tough. The screws themselves are metal.
It comes with two carry cases for each of the softboxes, but you'd have to sort out something for the stands and the light fixtures as they don't have carrying cases. When setting up the light boxes, the key is to put the rod that is located at the slit LAST (this will make sense when you get the kit). I didn't, because you know, what kind of guy actually reads the instructions first. Even so, getting that last support rod in takes a bit of work because the tension is pretty tight at that (like getting that last corner of a tight fitted sheet onto a mattress). For this reason, I don't think it would be so easy to take this apart and set it up regularly. If the last corner weren't so tight, it would be pretty carefree. In any event, I'm not looking for portability so it's not an issue for me, though you may want to consider this if you plan to use it as a mobile kit.
There are four bulbs in each of the fixtures (thanks for including them!), and I was expecting a series of switches so that you could turn on 1, 2, 3 or 4 lights depending on your lighting needs. But there is just a single on-off switch. It's easy enough to lift a corner of the softbox skin and unscrew one of the bulbs a bit to "turn it off", but if the kit had this feature, it would be primo.
This is my first venture into studio lighting, so it meets my needs. I am happy with the quality, and I spent some extra money to make sure I got something that wouldn't break as easily as the less expensive kits. I took a risk because there were no reviews at the time, so I thought important to post this one.

Mark your calendars Continuum fans, season three of the hit TV Show from Simon Davis-Barry hits our screens on March 16, 2014 in a worldwide premiere.
The announcement came in a short video starring Kiera (Rachel Nichols) and Carlos (Victor Webster) earlier. I personally cannot wait for this show to start up again. One of my all-time favourite shows.

Alright Experience
Sail Date: December 22, 2013
Reviewed: 3 years ago
Traveled As: Couple
Room Type: Oceanview
This was my second cruise so I did have soemthing to compare my experience too. I was not impressed with the cruise. I didn't hate it and my newly husband and I did have a relaxing time, as you should on your honeymoon. However, It seemed very unorganized at times, security did not seem very tight, it took forever to get off the boat when we were docked to see the islands, the excursions especially were very unorganized, the food was just okay, and we were notified that we had a port change just a couple weeks before we were suppose to leave which was disappointing!

Beachcomber Tours
Search engine optimisation strategy and implementation
The Client
Beachcomber Tours are a travel company who are specialists in holidays to Mauritius and appointed Wickedweb as their SEO Agency of choice, due to our vast experience of working with niche and high end travel companies.
The brief for Wickedweb was to achieve page high organic rankings on as many "Mauritius Holiday" related keywords as possible and to drive targeted, relevant traffic from additional holiday related phrases where applicable. The project was to deliver an increase in traffic that could be directly correlated to an increase in travel bookings and enquiries.
The Strategy
The strategy followed the main elements of SEO used by Wickedweb:
- Keyword Research & Strategy – all relevant keywords identified and prioritised according to their volume, relevance and competition levels. Wickedweb made additional recommendations regarding the product/service areas that drove higher margins and where Beachcomber Tours had competitive advantage.
- HTML and site architecture - making extensive recommendations to improve both indexing and keyword rankings. Additional recommendations were made with regards to functionality of the content management system that would enable the site to perform better.
- Content Optimisation – Wickedweb applied the Keyword Strategy to the website's content and optimised specific pages in line with this strategy. Additional recommendations were made to develop new content in line with the strategy.
- Link Profile Analysis – Wickedweb reviewed the link profile of Beachcomber Tours and benchmarked it against the sites performing well within the category. Recommendations were made regarding the terms to target in the link building activity.
The Solution
The solution was to target top-level keywords associated to "Mauritius holidays", whilst paying close attention to "luxury Mauritius holidays" and "all-inclusive Mauritius holidays" – these keywords would offer an integrated keyword strategy, whilst developing rankings on the most targeted terms. The strategy also focussed on hotel-specific terms in order to drive traffic from brand-aware visitors or repeat purchasers. These customers were identified as having a greater tendency to book/enquire. The final element was to target group-related bookings i.e. "family holidays Mauritius" and "weddings in Mauritius."
The Results
- Page 1 rankings for target keywords have increased from 23 to 45 in 6 months.
- Beachcombertours.co.uk are now on page 1 of Google WWS for "Mauritius holidays".
- Organic traffic is up over 9% in 2010 compared to the same period in 2009.
- Keyword traffic (excluding brand terms) is up 33.6% in 2010 compared to the same period in 2009.

Three hundred days of sunshine a year and an average temperature of 24°C (75°F) ensure the popularity of the Gold Coast, the most developed tourist destination and one of the fastest-growing regions in Australia, with plenty of amusement complexes and resorts. Easter weekend and December through the last week of January and Australian school holidays are peak seasons. Around 80 km (50 mi)—an hour's drive—south of Brisbane, the Gold Coast stretches some 70 km (43 mi) from Labrador in the north to Coolangatta-Tweed Heads in the south, and has now sprawled as far inland as Nerang. It has around three dozen patrolled beaches and 446 km (277 mi) of canals and tidal rivers, nine times the length of the canals of Venice.
