Dell PowerEdge R810 2U rack server
Ideal for virtualization, workload consolidation and midsized databases, the Dell™ PowerEdge™ R810 is a high-density, 4-socket or 2-socket, 2U rack server that combines advanced management capabilities with leading price-per-performance features.
- More processing power and more memory capacity to maximize workload
- Integrated systems management, Lifecycle Controller and embedded diagnostics to help maximize uptime

Intelligent Platforms, Uncommon Reliability
Server Reliability: A Long-Term Goal
Dell customers have told us they need a server manufacturer that inspires confidence through its reliability, availability and quality of products. By listening to and focusing on what our customers want, we've set a simple reliability goal: Deliver quality products that stand the test of time.
To help meet this goal, Dell is dedicated to improving reliability processes by:
- Employing robust validation and testing processes for durable product design
- Verifying that each supplier meets our stringent quality standards
- Utilizing robust, durable industrial materials to enable long product lifecycles
- Introducing a Unified Server Configurator (USC), which helps to minimize downtime by offering embedded and persistent diagnostics with no media required
- Improving redundancy generation over generation with features such as dual internal SD modules that provide failover at the hypervisor level
- Implementing a one-touch quality-control process designed to ensure that one person is responsible for the entire server build
- Ensuring that every fully configured Dell™ server is tested — and retested — before it leaves the factory
Intelligent, Connected Foundation
By listening to and focusing on our customers, Dell delivers innovation that matters and value that lasts.
FlexMem Bridge Technology: A Customer-Inspired Innovation
Applications continue to demand more memory per core, and memory continues to be the highest in-demand resource. Designed with this in mind, FlexMem Bridge technology from Dell delivers a practical solution to a real customer need. The FlexMem Bridge essentially mimics and extends Intel's existing connections from the two populated processors to the DIMM channels that would normally only be accessible if all four processors were populated. This innovation allows you to scale memory to take full advantage of the resources that matter most.
A Complete Management Portfolio
The PowerEdge R810 is simple to deploy, manage and maintain, saving you time and money to focus on what matters most — your people and business.
Efficient Infrastructure
As part of the 11th Generation PowerEdge portfolio, the PowerEdge R810 offers the system-design commonality, ease of use and cost-saving efficiency found in all 11th Generation servers.
- Dell designs all external ports, power supplies and LED lights in the same location for a familiar user experience, as well as for easy installation and deployment.
- Robust metal hard-drive carriers and organized cabling help to improve component access and airflow across the server.
- Logical layout of the internal components aids with airflow direction, helping to keep the server cool.
- Purposeful design also provides quiet acoustics and an interactive LCD positioned on the front of the server for ease of monitoring.
Limitations on space, power and cooling capacity, combined with rising energy costs, present enormous challenges for IT. Dell PowerEdge servers are designed to drive energy efficiency as a design standard while delivering the performance you need to meet cost and environmental goals. The Dell Energy Smart system design includes features that enable power capping, power inventory and power budgeting to aid in the management of power within your environment.
Energy Smart system design provides up to 16 percent energy savings by:

I do believe this is called "trolling." No, make that "Trolling."Yeah, this guy is in South Carolina. Unless Joe spent time between setting his store up to travel to a computer in South Carolina where he could make these posts, it ain't him.
"I'm going to start a thread just to set out to get people worked up and excited just so I can laugh at you all, ha ha ha ha ha."
Wow. Yeah. I get that joke.
POG, for once you aren't in the proper spirit of things. Shame, shame! Besides the guy pretty obviously isn't Joe, so it'd be unfair to label him a troll just because some people haven't gotten their night's sleep

Punkoffgirl, while you may not appreciate the spirit of this prank, a great many people in this thread found the antics extremely funny. I contend that no harm was done because I didn't scam anyone for their money, and my original intent wasn't to turn this into a big joke. I just wanted to see if I could pass off my skills as the real thing, and I did. Once my goal was met, the curtain came up. Along the way I had some fun because things started snowballing. If you look at the previous posts of the people who got it, you'll see quite a few L-O-Ls. You might see trolling, I see people laughing with me rather than laughing at them.
Life is too fun to take seriously, we come here to talk about video games for crying out loud.

Anthony Trollope: Barchester Towers45. CHAPTER XLV: THE STANHOPES AT HOME (continued)'It means this,' said the doctor, speaking more loudly than was his wont, and with wrath flashing from his eyes; 'that as sure as God rules in heaven, I will not maintain him any longer in idleness.' 'Oh, ruling in heaven!' said Charlotte. 'It is no use talking about that. You must rule him here on earth; and the question is, how you can do it. You can't turn him out of the house penniless, to beg about the street.' 'He may beg where he likes.' 'He must go back to Carrara. That is the cheapest place he can live at, and nobody there will give him credit for above two or three hundred pauls. But you must let him have the means of going.' 'As sure as--' 'Oh papa, don't swear. You know you must do it. You were ready to pay two hundred pounds for him if the marriage came off. Half that will start him to Carrara.' 'What? Give him a hundred pounds!' 'You know we are all in the dark, papa,' said she, thinking it expedient to change the conversation. 'For anything we know, he may be at this moment engaged to Mrs Bold.' 'Fiddlestick,' said the father, who had seen the way in which Mrs Bold had got into the carriage, while his son stood apart without even offering her his hand. 'Well, then, he must go to Carrara.' said Charlotte. Just at this moment the lock of the front door was heard, and Charlotte's quick care detected her brother's cat-like step in the hall. She said nothing, feeling that for the present Bertie had better keep out of her father's way. But Dr Stanhope also heard the sound of the lock. 'Who's that?' he demanded. Charlotte made no reply, and he asked again. 'Who is that that has just come in? Open the door. Who is it?' This is page 474 of 547.

The Ultimate Trying-to-Get-Pregnant Diet: What to Shop for and How to Eat
Nutrition basics for fertility, plus recipe ideas!
Your Grocery List
Go Heavy on Protein and Folates
Choose meals that include protein sources such as:
- Fish
- Poultry
- Lean meat
- Beans and lentils
- Nut butters (such as peanut, almond, or cashew butter) as well as seeds and nuts
- A generous portion of whole-grain products
- Low-fat dairy products
Also look for foods rich in folates, such as:
- Lentils
- Oatmeal
- Pinto and navy beans
- Asparagus
- Spinach
- Orange juice
Say No to Artificial Sweetners
Although the scientific evidence is scant regarding the safety of artificial sweeteners and pregnancy, it's better to play it safe than to enter unknown artificial territory.
To please the sweet tooth, try these healthy alternatives:
- Frozen bananas
- Fruit smoothies
- Naturally sweetened, nonfat frozen or regular yogurt
- Low-fat, naturally sweetened sorbet
- Fresh fruit
Skip the Caffeine
If you're a caffeine lover, there is research to consider on caffeine and fertility. According to the National Institute of Health, ingesting 300 milligrams of caffeine a day (that's equivalent to about three 8-ounce cups of coffee, seven cups of tea, five 12-ounce cans of cola, or 23 cups of cocoa) decreased a woman's chances of conceiving by as much as 27 percent compared to ingesting no caffeine.
So if you're looking for pick-me-up, instead try:
- Decaf coffee or tea (not herbal, unless cleared by your doctor)
- Naturally sweetened lemonade or fruit juice mixed with low-sodium sparkling mineral water
- Filtered water steeped with cucumber slices
- Naturally sweetened vegetable juices (such as carrot, tomato, or wheat grass)
Even though a woman trying to conceive may be banished to decaf, her mate may actually benefit from drinking the high-test. Studies show that caffeine may increase a man's fertility by stimulating sperm motility.
Cut Back on Desserts and Refined Sugars
Excess sugar in the bloodstream can lower the body's ability to manufacture the necessary hormones for reproduction. So, skip those bakery-counter sweets, cookies, and other processed desserts that use refined sugars. Instead try making your own fruit-juice sweetened treats. You can find recipes online today for everything from applesauce cakes to carrot muffins sweetened with pineapples, with little or no refined sugar. You might try apple-juice sweetened fig bar snacks or apple cinnamon bran muffins.
Don't Forget Your Vitamins!
Multi-nutrient supplementation is recommended for women who are even considering pregnancy to cover the increased nutrient needs. When shopping for a vitamin, be sure to look for: folic acid; vitamins B-6, C, and D; calcium; copper; iron; and zinc.
When looking for good vitamin, also first be sure to check with your doctor to discuss the right mix of nutrients for you. And remember that more isn't always better. In a study of over 22,000 pregnant women, those who took supplements with more than 10,000 international Units (IU) a day of pre-formed vitamin A (retinol) were almost five times more likely to give birth to a baby with a birth defect than women who consumed 5,000 IU or less. A good vitamin A alternative is beta-carotene, which the body will convert into vitamin only if needed. (These days, many supplements have beta-carotene added to its formula but list it under Vitamin A activity.)
Another important note to make when looking for a good vitamin to take when trying to conception is regarding folic acid. Research strongly suggests that taking folate and multivitamins just before and in the first few weeks of pregnancy may be the most protective measure against the later development of one of the most common types of childhood brain tumors. The recommended intake is 400 micrograms of folic acid a day. Once you are expecting, the Institute of Medicine recommend 600 mcg of folate; however, some doctors are pushing for 800 mcg of folate.

Countryside Council for Wales Landscape & wildlife Please note - A new body, Natural Resources Wales has taken over all functions and services previously carried out by Countryside Council for Wales. While the Natural Resources Wales website continues to be developed, some online services will continue to be provided on this web site.
SSSIs – Sites of Special Scientific Interest – are the most important sites for Wales' natural heritage. They are highly protected to safeguard the range, quality and variety of habitats, species and geological features in all parts of Wales. They are the cornerstones of conservation work, protecting the core of our natural heritage.
There are more than 1,000 SSSIs in Wales, covering about 12% of the country's surface area. They are notified by CCW.
Many SSSIs support wildlife and habitats which are internationally important. Some are also designated under other schemes too, recognising them as the very best examples of natural heritage sites in Wales, the UK and Europe.
Natural sites include coastline, freshwater, upland and lowland sites and range from small fens or sand dunes to woodlands and vast reaches of mountain. They contain important types of land, plants and wildlife. Geological sites range from quarries to rocky outcrops and massive sea-cliffs.
Each SSSI is protected by law from damage through development or unsuitable management or activities. They are also protected through working partnerships and agreements with owners and others who use the sites.
CCW must tell landowners exactly where every SSSI is and explain why it is protected. CCW co-operates with the owners and offers advice, information and, sometimes, financial support.
SSSI Report 2005-6
In-depth information on the status and condition of SSSIs in Wales.

"The Life And Times Of Prophecy"
Extreme Weather: Tornadoes Claim The Lives Of Nearly 200
posted by Garry "Prophecy" Sun on April 28, 2011
The Death Toll in 5 Southern states rose to nearly 200 today, after Alabama, Tennessee, Mississippi, Georgia and Virginia all experienced powerful storms that swept across the states.
Storms spawned Tornadoes and winds that swept up businesses and homes, and even left a Nuclear Reactor to run on their backup generators.. Yeah, that's not gonna instill fear in us in these days and times.
Alabama has a total 128 confirmed deaths, 32 in Mississippi, 11 in George, 6 in Tennesse and 1 in Virginia.

That actually looks very interesting, it'd be good as a plug-in. I'd have to hear a demo before shelling out £130 for a copy though.

Hashing it out
A recent blog posting about corned beef had one reader asking whether anyone out there had a time-tested recipe for corned beef hash.
I don't blame him. Corned beef hash is second only to reubens in the best uses for the leftover St. Patty's Day/New Year's Day meat.
When I was a kid, we would occasionally be treated to corned beef hash for dinner, so I think of it more as a late day meal than a breakfast food. But recently, during a brunch at Keswick Hall in Charlottesville, I had corned beef hash served with a tiny, fried quail egg nestled in it.
It was delicious enough to have me thinking about my next corned beef hash breakfast.
Blog reader Liz came through today with her favorite corned beef hash recipe. I'll post it here, but if anyone else has a different recipe, I'd love to see it.

(Will make a logo soon)
The year is 2020. 20 years ago the Soul Society as a whole came under attack from an unknown enemy, Shinigami of the Gotei 13 were quickly sent out to deal with these threats but in mere hours the majority of the troops had been wiped out...loosing everything and taking nothing. The remaining Shinigami fell back to the Seireitei with the others stationed there and tried to defend from there, it was a noble effort but the battle was already lost...their numbers were cut down to the bare minimum and their forces spread thin, it was no wonder the enemy broke in without a struggle...as the Shinigami fell even the Lieutenants and Captains only one man remained to take on the enemy...with a brave soul and a burning fire for revenge in his eye he stood alone and crushed the majority of the enemy forces into dust but it was not meant to be...the enemy got stronger and eventually proved to much for the Head Captain to handle...in the end he fell to their leaders blade. The enemy then enslaved the Soul Society for many years until one Shinigami rose...his power unlike any other and alone he sent the enemy back to where they came from in a bloody battle. Shortly after he was made the Head Captain of the Gotei 13 and then set out to rebuild what was lost in the battle. We arrive at present day and the Gotei 13 is on the mends, a few powerful Shinigami have stepped up to fill the positions of Captain and the Shino Academy was brought into full swing gaining it's best teachers for centuries. New recruits graduate from the Shino Academy every day and fill the Squads with life...their Captains teaching them how to become the best they can be as fast as possible in preparation for an attack of any kind...Today you are one of those Graduates looking to join a Squad and work your way up the ladder...so what are you waiting for? there are enemies just out on the horizon! get out there and give em' hell!

"A veritable tour de force of 'inside' prepared piano playing -- preppiano extensif. The whole of a solo set performed at Les Instants Chavires near Paris. Sophie Agnel's preparations, neither static nor fixed, evolve during the course of her playing as she adds, moves or removes an object, or replaces one artefact with another. These preparations include disposable water cups, nylon fishing-line, bouncing balls, aluminum ashtrays, aluminum foil, industrial nylon, inner-tube rubber and polished rock all of which result in a remarkable sound world far removed from that usually associated with the piano. This is her second solo CD -- the first (on Vand'Oeuvre) was made in 2000, and since then she has appeared in several duos and trios with a variety of musicians. 51 minutes."-Emanem
Excerpts from sleeve notes:
"preppiano extensif
To prepare a piano is to place objects or materials in between and on the strings of the instrument in order to alter its sound. The choice of these additions, and their placement, create a personal audio universe unique to each preparation. Sophie Agnel's preparations, neither static nor fixed, evolve during the course of her playing as the pianist adds, moves or removes an object, or replaces one artefact with another. She in fact prefers to speak of the extensive piano. So what are these introduced artefacts? What do these objects, once chosen, do to the sound, to the music, to the piano thus prepared and extended, to the preppiano extensif?
White, breakable, disposable water cups - plastic cracklings, anxieties. Nylon fishing-line - sawn durations, stridencies, alarms. Bouncing balls - prancing capers, cascading trills. Aluminium ashtrays - metallic sputtering, cracklings. This music is evocative, one could describe images born from listening to it. But more profoundly, more concretely, the phenomenon in question is something else.
No metaphor: what is introduced into the piano is plastic made in China, mass-produced aluminium foil, industrial nylon, inner-tube rubber, polished rock: Artefacts, industrial or hand crafted, whose sounds imply their provenance and history. On them is founded a concrete sound-world. This cult instrument of western erudite music, the end-point of high culture and sophistication, is invaded by contemporary pragmatism, manufactured banality, by objects. The indisputable sounds created by this invasion may well preserve their mystery (a blind listener would have trouble discerning just how this music is made). These rumblings, bells, whistles, plastic stridencies, metallic frequencies attest, in the very belly of the piano, to a necessarily contemporary world beyond the piano. The piano is extended into the world. Sophie Agnel puts the world into the piano.
There may never before have been such improvisation on the piano, on the preppiano extensif. One has probably never before lived in such a world..."-Henri Jules Julien

Event Info
Aug 09 2012
There are no words which can effectively express what tonight will always mean to me. Since the summer before freshman year, I've been hooked on Mumford & Sons, but my love for this band extends far beyond just any fangirl phase. These four fine Gentlemen of the Road have given me so much, and that in itself is an understatement. With their music, I've found a rock of solitude in chaos, a pick-me-up in rock bottom, and even a slap in the face when I know I've messed up. I'd like to think that, in a way, they saved me from myself, and I have nothing but the deepest respect and admiration for these men, because what they do is good. They write beautiful songs and belt out the lyrics with such emotion and feeling that I can't help but feel apart of it all. I left the venue sweaty, tired, thirsty, and with a sore throat, but I could care less; I stood through 4 hours of purely exuberant musical bliss with my best friend, and I would do it all over again in a heartbeat. From the phenomenal opening acts' performances to the last verse of 'The Cave', I was enthralled. It was like one of those out-of-body/once-in-lifetime/you had to have been there kind of things. Simply spectacular. I tried taking it all in-the lights, the instruments, the fantastic crowd…such a moving experience for myself. I can go to sleep with a smile on my face, but I will miss these memories I've made all the more. Tonight was for living "that one dream" that I've always had, and it was completely worth it; I feel different, I feel reborn. So until the next time M&S stop by VA, I'll find strength in pain, I will change my ways, and I'll know my name as it's called again.

Got my tickets today so excited.Was a little worried when i tried to do the 10 oclock presale through Ticketmaster and it just kept saying there were none available. I checked the site from the main concert page and was able to buy them with no problem. We are also going to the Bristol Stopover, so that will be 2 concerts in 3 days.

Tanzania Tours and Safaris
- Serengeti National Park
- Ngorongoro Crater
- Mt. Kilimanjaro
- Zanzibar
One of the most popular tourist destinations in Africa, Tanzania is well-established as one of the best wildlife-viewing destinations in the world. Safaris follow the trail of giant herds of antelope or wildebeest across the Serengeti, while lions lounge in the shade waiting for their next meal to trot by. On the horizon looms the conical silhouette of Kilimanjaro, beckoning the strong of lung and leg, and just off the coast the beaches and Arabian-infused culture of Zanzibar offer travelers a very different Africa.
Mt Kilimanjaro Trek - Machame 8-Day Route (DTM8)
Possibly the most scenic route to the summit, Machame boasts different paths to the summit and back. Emerge onto high alpine deserts with amazing views of ice fields, all en route to Uhuru, peak of Mt Kilimanjaro! Known as the "Whiskey Route," this path leads you through magnificent forests to gain a ridge leading through moorland to the Shira Plateau. It offers great scenery beneath the glaciated precipices of the Southern Icefields before summiting from the higher Barafu Camp. Camp along the route with support from local guides and porters. As a world leader in Kili treks, we'll take you to new heights in adventure!
Highlights: Witness the curvature of the earth from the roof of Africa, trek past verdant forests and silent glaciers on the way to Uhuru Peak.

Mt Kilimanjaro Trek - Marangu Route (DTKM)
At 5,895m (19,340 ft), Mt Kilimanjaro is Africa's highest peak and this adventure along the Marangu Route will get you to the top safely, quickly, and with your budget in mind. Overnight in mountain huts and awake ready to conquer the slopes. As a leader in Kili treks, we'll take you to new heights in adventure on your way to the roof of Africa. Affectionately known as the "Coca-Cola Route," Marangu covers forests, moorlands and "the Saddle," a high-altitude desert, on its way to Kibo Hut. This is the easiest route to summit – with a catch. The trail is well maintained but because of the quick ascent, the success rate is not as high as other routes.
Highlights: Sleep in mountain huts on the way to the top, witness Africa from atop its highest mountain.

Dozens of children kept in police cells
9:30am Monday 14th October 2013 in News
Thirty-eight children are locked up overnight in Thames Valley Police cells each week, new figures obtained by the Howard League for Penal Reform reveal.
Research by the charity shows that there were 1,976 overnight detentions of children aged 17 and under in police stations across the region during 2011.
Figures for Oxfordshire were not available.
The total across England and Wales was 40,716 – which equates to an average of 112 detentions per night.
Frances Crook, chief executive of the Howard League for Penal Reform, said: "Holding children as young as 10 in police cells overnight is unjustifiable."

Calling James Bond: Sunseeker Unveils New Superyacht
Filed under: Yachts & Sailing
UK-based Sunseeker, whose sleek craft had a starring role in the last three James Bond films, has unveiled the stunning new 40-metre (131-ft.) superyacht it plans to debut at the upcoming Southampton Boat Show. Bristling with balconies, bars and sundecks, it's designed to accommodate all the Bond girls you can muster in extreme luxury. An integrated touch-screen-controlled lighting system and state-of-the-art audio visual system by Bang & Olufsen help set the mood. The yacht's three decks of interior space are designed to optimize available natural light, and the lower deck guest cabins feature large, panoramic portlights. Layouts can be customized to individual customers' specifications so you can choose between more space or more cabins. Exterior-wise, an increased rake makes for an impressive streamlined profile and a sharp, ocean-going bow. Stairs curving inwards on each side of the hydraulic central bathing platform make for a dramatic entrance when boarding the yacht.

SEOUL, April 29 (Reuters) - South Korea's current account surplus in March edged down to a seasonally adjusted $4.36 billion from $4.45 billion in February as exports slightly fell while imports rose, central bank data showed on Monday.
Exports in March slipped by 2.0 percent to $46.35 billion from February on a seasonally adjusted basis, while imports ticked up 0.5 percent to $43.11 billion, the Bank of Korea data showed, producing a goods account surplus of $3.24 billion.
On a non-seasonally adjusted basis, the current account surplus jumped to $4.98 billion in March from $2.71 billion in February, the central bank said.
In the financial account, Asia's fourth-largest economy saw a net outflow of $6.81 billion in March, without adjustment for seasonal patterns, compared to a revised net outflow of $3.31 billion in February, the data showed.

Pump It Up is a blissfully big space designed to help kids meet their needs for friendship, midair dance moves, and gravity defiance. Parents can watch as their bounce-prone descendants slide, scale, and moonwalk around Pump It Up's inflatable arena. The bounce zone draws kids with its promise of afternoon hang time and offers a brief history lesson in its resemblance to King Louis XVI's famous "jumpy castle." Kids can bond with one another through the subtle physical fitness that comes with recreational jumping, and they'll be glad to have a spot to discuss pressing kid-only issues, such as the superiority of the color blue to the color green.
Slides, climbing structures, and three inflatable jumpers and obstacle courses outfit Wood Kingdom's 5,000-square-foot indoor playground, while a separate snack area and private birthday room quarantine feasting children from frolicking ones. Elsewhere, knowledgeable staffers in the family-operated business' indoor and outdoor showrooms walk patrons through an extensive stock of home-playground equipment and outdoor furnishings, including trampolines with safety enclosures, basketball hoops, and gazebos. Wood Kingdom personnel subsequently delivers, installs, and maintains each piece of equipment, ensuring that sheds continue to reject move-in offers from portals to the underworld and swing sets are properly assembled.

By the following year Tony had gathered 20–30 friends and kin for paintball bouts on his family's private land. As demand for paintball guns and safety gear grew among his brigade of marksmen, he converted his basement into a makeshift store, supplying paintball accoutrement from home until moving into a storefront in 1990. Within two decades Tony and his clan formed the lauded paintball team the New York Dogs, opened their own indoor arena, and eventually combined that arena with their largest store yet.
That facility forms the backbone of Island Paintball, where a sports turf field hosts Model 98–brandishing players. In between games, players can watch other contests from behind the staging area's Plexiglas viewing windows or browse Island Paintball Supplies' gun wall and 12 massive showcases of paintball gear. An in-house gunsmith repairs any malfunctioning guns, which patrons can wield at open-play sessions and private parties.
Bayville Adventure Park provides thrills and chills for visitors of all ages. Attractions such as a tree-top adventure zone and rock climbing wall encourage healthy competition, while a pirate-themed miniature golf course invites guests to practice their short game and best parrot impression. The park also has an arcade and an ice cream parlor. And while the environs at Bayville are generally swashbuckling, the arrival of fall heralds a change and decks every available hall to transform into a winter wonderland in November with attractions like Captain Bay's Yo Ho Holiday Lights Show (which opens at 4:00 p.m), Santa's Toy Factory Fun House, a holiday shop, a holiday express train, ice skating, and a chance to meet Santa Claus himself and other holiday characters.
In the middle of the floor, surrounded by 150 blinking and dinging arcade games, a 24-foot rock-climbing wall stretches to the ceiling. That's how jam-packed Sportime USA is with attractions. As if all those games weren't enough, there's the XD theater—a 4-D virtual ride that combines 3-D movies with specialized motion seats. Neon-lit laser tag continues the tech trend, and bumper cars and roller coasters provide old-fashioned fun. Batting cages, billiards, and a multilevel playground are only a few of the other attractions ready to entertain families and friends of all ages.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease |
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is a term used to describe the accumulation of fat in the liver of people who drink little or no alcohol.
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is common and, for most people, causes no signs and symptoms and no complications. But in some people with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, the fat that accumulates can cause inflammation and scarring in the liver. This more serious form of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is sometimes called nonalcoholic steatohepatitis. At its most severe, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease can progress to liver failure.

Sandy, the hybrid hurricane/nor'easter, began to lose steam Tuesday as it drifted across Pennsylvania and veered toward Canada. But the damage was done, and it will go down as a historic storm, not least because of what it did to New York, where a surge of seawater inundated some of the most valuable real estate in America.
Much of Manhattan, the seat of American finance, is in the dark. Someone standing after dusk Tuesday in the middle of the Brooklyn Bridge would see the lighted-up Chrysler Building and other Midtown skyscrapers to the north but darkened buildings to the south - almost all of Lower Manhattan vanishing into the night. Only City Hall was illuminated.
Power could be out for a week - a fact noted by some New Yorkers who packed their bags and headed for the exits.
The storm was blamed for 48 deaths up and down the East Coast, according to the Associated Press. The tempest played havoc with the power grid, knocking out electricity to 7.5 million people. More than 16,000 airline flights have been canceled so far. Eqecat, a firm that models the costs of catastrophes for insurance companies, estimated Sandy's economic impact on the country at $10 billion to $20 billion.
At the point of attack was New York City, a marvel of infrastructure and civil engineering that rediscovered this week that it is a coastal city, and that nature can be vicious. Sandy's high winds sparked fires that destroyed scores of houses. All the New York City airports remained closed Tuesday, along with the flooded subway. Wall Street never opened for business, the first two-day closure due to weather since the days of horses and buggies. The United Nations will be closed today for the third straight day.
"The damage we suffered across the city is clearly extensive, and it will not be repaired overnight," said New York Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg.
Bloomberg put the city death toll at 10. The toll could have been higher: Firefighters rescued 25 people from an upstairs apartment as they battled a huge blaze in the Breezy Point neighborhood of Queens. Another drama unfolded late Monday at New York University's Tisch Hospital, when a backup electrical system failed and nurses had to evacuate infants from neonatal intensive care, carrying them down darkened stairwells to get them to the safety of another hospital.
The Breezy Point fire immolated 80 homes, one of which belonged to a congressman, Robert L. Turner, R-N.Y.
In Brooklyn, Dave Shamoun, 58, the owner of Technico Marine, a marine industry supplier, surveyed the soggy wreckage in a 15,000-square-foot warehouse.
"This is New York's Katrina," Shamoun said.
The denizens of Lower Manhattan were astonished by the sight of submerged and floating cars in vintage residential neighborhoods and the financial district. In the East Village, more than a dozen people waited on line Tuesday at the Village Farms grocery store, where workers escorted each shopper for a flashlit tour of the aisles. Around the corner, 37 people waited in line at a coffee truck, some amusing themselves by guessing how long it would be before power returned to their apartments.
"Four days? Thanksgiving? " asked Zack Zavada, 29, a clothing salesman who said he had seen a Con Edison transformer explode from his window.
At Fanelli's, open since 1847 at Prince and Mercer Streets, there were no empty stools as the bartender served by flashlight. Small candles burned on the bar.
"Liquor, no food," said Mark Michaelson, 56, an art director, taking a smoke break at the entrance. "A Jameson's is like a sandwich."
President Barack Obama signed federal emergency declarations for 10 states and the District of Columbia, and he canceled campaign plans for Monday and Tuesday so he could remain at the White House and oversee the storm response. After visiting the headquarters of the Red Cross in Washington, Obama told reporters, "My message to the federal government: No bureaucracy. No red tape." He said if local officials get no for an answer from the federal government, "they can call me personally at the White House."

Report: Viruses spreading on the double
David Becker
Special to ZDNet News
June 18, 2002, 4:45 PM PT
Computer viruses are proliferating faster than ever, according to British security company MessageLabs, which reported Tuesday that it caught
as many pests in the first half of 2002 as it did in all of last year.
The company, which screens corporate e-mail accounts for viruses, said it intercepted more than 2 million infected messages in the first six months of 2002, double what it encountered in the same period last year.
Various forms of the Klez worm were the worst offenders, responsible for more than half of all infected messages. Klez, which started off as a fairly innocuous
mass-mailing worm
, mutated into nastier versions as virus writers tried to improve on the original code, resulting in the pandemic Klez.h variant.
John Harrington, U.S. marketing director for MessageLabs, said such serial development of worms has helped virus writers create more malicious pests.
"These guys are all learning from each other," Harrington said. "They find something that works; they add their own little social engineering twist, and the worm keeps going.
"Not only are we seeing more e-mail viruses out there, but the type we're seeing are more malicious," Harrington added. "Two years ago, the big pest was the Love Bug; it was a mass mailer, but the payload wasn't that malicious.
With SirCam and Klez, they're extremely malicious--they root around your hard drive; they send out sensitive documents
SirCam, which surfaced last year, was the second most active pest, responsible for 600,000 infections. Harrington said the worm's durability is partly the result of its concentration among home PC users, who often lack adequate security measures, and of the design of the worm.
"There's a lot of people out there who don't even know they have it," Harrington said. "These kind of viruses can just hang around in the background."
The report noted that although the United States and Europe continue to be the main source of virus outbreaks, the number of pests originating from Asian countries--particularly China and Taiwan--has grown substantially.
"More countries, including the U.S., are starting to crack down on virus writers," Harrington said, "so more of them are originating in countries that don't have very strict laws on these things."

We had a great time and loved staying close to town but off the beaten path. Owner was very good to work with. :)Recommended for: Families with teenagers, sightseeing, romantic getaway, families with young children, age 55+, girls getaway.
Manager response: I am so glad you enjoyed your stay at Thousand Hills. It is great to have a relaxing place to return home to but close to all the action. I know Utah is a long way to come but if you ever return to the Branson area would love to have you as our guests again. Thanks again, Noreen

We booked this condo after Thanksgiving for a pre-Christmas stay. All the arrangements were made by e-mail and phone. Although the directions are a little out of date due to businesses closing, we were able to find the condo with ease. The 2 bedrooms with a pull out was the perfect size for our family. The decorating touches made us feel at home. This was a much better choice than 3 hotel rooms would have been. We did a great deal of shopping and dining out. The location is off the main path but still very close and convenient to the strip. We had a great time and would recommend this condo. It is up 2 sets of steps so be prepared to climb but the view is worth the effort.Recommended for: Sightseeing, romantic getaway, girls getaway, pet owners.

I would highly recommend this unit and plan to stay here again when I return to Branson! There is more shopping to do and shows to see so I will be back!!!

Year Purchased: 2005
About: My husband and I retired to Hot Springs Village, Arkansas, in 2006 from the Detroit area. I worked for 20 years as an Emergency Room nurse and my husband worked for Ford Motor Co. I have been in the vacation rental business since 2001 and love hosting guests in our condos. We have two children - our son lives in Charlotte, North Carolina and our daughter lives in Washington DC. Our family has special memories from our family vacations and hope that you will take home many heart-warming memories from your stay at our condo in Branson. We are expecting our first grandchild in August 2013!! We also have a rescue dog named Cody that we adopted in April 2012. Because the lady that ran the shelter that we rescued him from was so inspiring I now volunteer at our local animal shelter. Thanks Donna! IMPORTANT UPDATE! Our first grandchild, a granddaughter named Sunny, was born on August 27, 2013. We are so excited to be grandparents and have moved to Fredericksburg, VA to be closer to our children. We are enjoying exploring the eastern part of this beautiful country!
