5 Marathons, 5 States, 5 Days
Monday, May 16, 2016 - Friday, May 20, 2016
This year we will have Chip Timing and Course Certification for ALL FULL MARATHONS (Half Marathons are not certified but they are chip timed).
I want to welcome many of you new runners this year as well as many who have run with us before.
Except for the weather, which I can't control (but has been superb in the first three years) I am sure this will be the best yet! There have been some runners who have told me that they thought that runners had to run all 5 races. Nonsense! You can run as few or as many as you like.
For the 2016 Marathon Series we are proud to announce that we will be donating some of the proceeds to the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. Please join us by making an individual donation using the button on our website and help us stop out cancer.
Finally, I will need about 5 volunteers for each race.
If you would like to volunteer, please contact Nancy at
352-299-5194. I would appreciate any of you to contribute comments on marathonguide.com so that we can spread the word.

Mostly this is a question for GamerPrinter, but I figured I'd post it rather than sending a PM since it's a question that probably comes up pretty frequently. I looked through the threads for one that already had the info, but couldn't find one.
Today I showed my Mom my random practice continent, and she fell in love and asked for a version of Middle Earth in that style for her wall.
However, when I tried printing the one I had a few days ago, it was way too dark (and too low-res) for a paper version.
If I'm making a map for the express purpose of printing and framing it, what dpi should I make it, and should I keep the colors a lot lighter or did my printer just suck?

So I was wondering what is the difference (benefit wise) between intervals and on/off exercise.
My interval definition:
1) x minutes zone 2, y minutes recovery zone <=1
2) z minutes zone 3 (optional once intensity starts to go up + t minutes z4). So you ride in z3 for sometime then for shorter period go in to zone 4.
Do a mix of 1 and 2 in one ride. Zone 2 intervals are longer then zone 3/4. So for example 2 12 minute zone two, and 3 7 minutes zone 3/4 (5 minutes zone 3, 2 minutes zone 4).
x seconds zone 4/5, y seconds zone 2. Do about 10 or so in a row.
So for example 15 seconds in zone 4/5, then 45 seconds in zone 2. Do this ten times in a row. Rest just ride around in zone2.
I hope I am being clear.

Doing something for ME!
Sunday, June 26, 2011
I have always put everything/everyone else before myself. I'm not saying that this is necessarily a bad thing but in return I haven't always taken proper care of myself. I had a husband and kids to raise. So as most wives/moms they put everything else before themselves.
I have been taking much better care of my nutrition/health in the last several years. I have been on SP for a little over 3 years now. I have had great success with my weightloss right before and since joining SP. I don't always log on and track like I should but I am ALWAYS aware of everything that I put in my mouth. I feel much better than I did prior to changing my eating habits. I have always been negative and extremely down on myself. I am finally starting to learn to love me and accept me.
I recently enrolled in a well know hair academy to get my cosmetology license. I used to be a salon co-owner working on an apprenticeship to get my license but I let everything get in my way. Whether it was trying to keep up with who/whatever my ex was doing or running 3 teenagers around all over creation and back. I was 140 pounds heavier than I am now and lacked the confidence and physical ability to be successful in my career. My partner and I wound up selling the salon and I floated around to various positions in sales and customer service but was never really happy with anything that I was doing and never felt the degree of success that I had felt when I was in a salon.
Since enrolling in school I have never been happier. I realize that this is the first thing that I have done for ME in a very long time. My attitude about everything is so much more positive. I don't know when I have ever been happier. I still get tired and have a long way to go in my weight loss but I feel better than I ever have about myself. My now ex husband told me a year or so ago that I would never be successful. Well look at me now!!! I am not out of school yet but when I am I plan on owning another salon and being more successful than ever. I WILL continue to lose weight and share my story with other people who feel they will never make it. I want to help others look and feel beautiful about themselves. It is so important for us to believe in ourselves even if no one else does. I've waited 42 years to love myself and I am finally here. I am successful!!!

Response to question for Jan 7-13: WHAT WOULD BE THE IMMEDIATE BENEFITS, AND FOR WHOM?
FDI in multi brand retail will result in the strengthening of the back end supply chain infrastructure for all products, ranging from storage to processing and manufacturing infrastructure, which would reduce post-harvest losses.
Direct purchase by the retailers would also drastically reduce the number of needless middlemen thus farmers will get better prices for their products. Consumers will benefit from the reduction in prices that would result from the supply chain efficiencies to the improvement in the quality of the products. Food safety standards would also get better with improvised testing and storage facilities.
Lowering of prices would lower inflation and the current incomes of the economically disadvantaged sections would hence be able to buy more than before. Small and medium manufacturers are also going to be benefited as 30 per cent sourcing from these industries has been made mandatory. This would provide the necessary scales for these entities to expand their capacities in manufacturing, hence adding up to the employed population and also boosting the manufacturing sector of the country.
These industries also stand to get added advantages of technology up gradation, which would give them an upper hand in productivity and local value addition, thereby raising the profitability and earnings of the small manufacturers. New manufacturing opportunities will also open for the countrys micro, small and medium enterprises. Investments in the organized retail sector will see gainful employment opportunities in agro-processing, sorting, marketing, logistic management, small manufacturing sector like textiles and apparel, construction, IT, and other infrastructure.

Gucci Mane says he is writing an autobiography.
"Im writing a novel about my life 'The Diary of a Trap God,'" he says.
Beyond this, Gucci Mane also says he is gearing up to go on tour next year.
"The Guwop Tour! The greatest show on earth ...coming 2015 #BURR," the rapper says.
Gucci Mane is scheduled to be in jail until at 2016, according to recent reports regarding the rapper's legal troubles. The rapper reportedly recently struck a deal as a result of pleading guilty to possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. The charge carries a maximum sentence of 10 years, however, Gucci Mane's agreement says he's scheduled to face only 39 months. He will also be given a 10-month credit for the time he's served, per reports.
Gucci Mane has made several announcements on Twitter. In 2013, the rapper used the social media platform to announce his addiction to lean. At the time, he also apologized for several comments he made on Twitter.

The 2G spectrum auctions ended on Wednesday with the government raising a Rs 9,407.04 crore against the budget estimate of Rs 40,000 crore.
In stark contrast to the 3G spectrum auctions of 2010, which went on for more than a month and fetched R67,000 crore, this time round the auction finished on the second day. It had begun on November 12, when the government was able to earn Rs 9,224.75 crore. There was no auction on November 13 on account of holiday for Diwali.
Actual government revenues may be even less as the companies have the option of staggered payment wherein only 33% needs to be paid upfront. Further, for companies like Idea, Videocon and Telenor, the government would also need to adjust their entry licence fee of R1,651 crore paid in 2008.
Briefing reporters, telecom minister Kapil Sibal said he does not wish to comment on the CAG report as the facts of spectrum auction are before the nation.
I do not want to comment on any institution but the facts are in front of the nation. The nature of the market in 2008, 2010 and 2012 are very different. It is very dangerous to extrapolate and take the situation in 2010 and apply in 2008 and similarly apply 2012 to 2008, Sibal said.
Videocon and Idea won spectrum in seven circles while Telenor got spectrum in six circles. Bharti Airtel won in one circle while Vodafone got 14 circles.
Videocon, Idea and Telenor were the among operators which had lost their licences when the Supreme Court in February cancelled all 122 licences granted on January 10, 2008 by former telecom minister A Raja. While Vodafone and Telenor were new operators losing licences in all 22 circles, Idea an incumbent operator, had lost licences in seven circles which were not covered by it earlier.
The auctions dragged on due to some excess demand in circles like Uttar Pradesh (east) and (west) and Bihar, all C circle circles where the reserve price was low. Of the total 22 circles, bids were received in only 18 circles with four circles Karnataka, Delhi, Mumbai and Rajasthan the circles with high reserve price not drawing any bids. Barring Bihar, bidders got spectrum in all circles at the reserve price.
The government will now have to think of ways of selling spectrum in circles where there were no takers. Would it lower the reserve price? It already faces a similar

System Emulation with QEMU
Do you ever wish you could run Linux within Linux? Or how about DOS within Linux? QEMU is an open source application that lets you emulate a complete hardware environment within your Linux system.
Linux supports several applications that let you emulate the conditions of a hardware architecture. These applications can create a virtual computer within your Linux machine. You can use this virtual computer to test software or even run another operating system. An application that emulates a hardware environment is known as a system emulator. The most common system emulators for Linux are Bochs [1], a very powerful emulator that is often difficult to configure, and VMware [2], a very good and very fast emulator that, unfortunately, comes with a higher price because it is a commercial product. But another competitor in the field of system emulation is coming on the scene. In this article you'll learn about the power-ful (and free) QEMU system emulator application. QEMU is extremely easy to use, and it provides simple commands for tasks that may be difficult with other emulators. I'll show you how to use QEMU in some real situations, but keep in mind that this article only covers a fraction of the features and commands available with QEMU. To see the rest, download QEMU yourself and put it to work.

Bannan shines on debut as Scotland cruise past Faroe Islands
Barry Bannan enjoyed a winning start to his international career as Scotland cruised past the Faroe Islands with a 3-0 triumph.
Bannan slotted seamlessly into the Tartan Army's midfield alongside Manchester United star Darren Fletcher and Charlie Adam of Blackpool.
The 20-year-old capped his debut for the senior national side by setting up Scotland's third goal, while he also saw his shot cannon off the post in the first-half.
Fellow debutant Danny Wilson gave Craig Levein's side the lead in the friendly clash at Pittodrie.
With 24 minutes on the clock, the Liverpool defender converted Adam's corner from six yards.
Adam set up Scotland's second six minutes later, whipping a right-wing cross to the near post which Kris Commons of Derby flicked home.
There was still time for another before the break, with Bannan coming to the fore.
The Villa midfielder hung a high cross to the back post which Wilson headed down for QPR striker Jamie Mackie to apply the simplest of tap-ins.
Moments earlier, Bannan saw his 25-yard drive strike the foot of the post after a neat exchange with Mackie.
And the confident youngster continued to influence the contest after the break.
Just after the restart, the Airdrie-born ace ghosted in from the left and headed Commons' cross just over, while his half-volley from the edge of the area also narrowly missed the target.
A few hours earlier, Nathan Delfouneso was on the losing side as England U21s suffered a 2-0 friendly defeat against Germany.
The Villa striker started the match in Wiesbaden and came close to grabbing a second-half goal before being replaced by Chelsea's Josh McEachran three minutes from time.
The home side went ahead on 37 minutes when Konstantin Rausch fired a low left-foot shot past Scott Loach.
There was drama after the break when Middlesbrough goalkeeper Jason Steele, who replaced Loach at half-time, received a red card when he brought down Boris Vukcevic in the penalty area.
Coach Stuart Pearce had already used his substitute goalkeeper, so Arsenal midfielder Henri Lansbury was handed the gloves for the remainder of the contest.
Cenk Tosun stepped up and slotted home Germany's second from the spot.
Delfouneso had earlier gone close to levelling the scores after collecting Lansbury's through pass, but the 19-year-old dragged his shot wide.
Fellow Villa star Marc Albrighton was also named in the squad but Pearce opted to rest the 20-year-old winger.

I am 41 years old have been cycling forever.
Have been riding the same vintage (I think it is a miele but I will save this for another thread) for about 20 years and when my freewheel went last month and I couldn't quickly find a replacement I decided that it was time to break down and get something new.
Settled on a Cannondale Six 6 based on several hours of test rides in my price range. WOW what a difference 20 years has made.
I do about 1000-1500 KM a year on my own and another 200-250 on my mountain bike with the family. Married with 3 kids aged 6-9-11 and this year we can finally go riding all together.
Glad to have found the forum and look forward to discussions!

By: The Root Staff Posted: Dec. 7 2012 5:27 PM 0 Thinkstock (The Root) -- Have you ever experienced housing discrimination? If so, ProPublica and The Root want to hear from you. The two outlets are teaming up to survey readers on their home-scouting experiences. More than four decades after Congress passed the Fair Housing Act, housing prejudice is hardly a phenomenon of the past. In fact, according to ProPublica, Latinos and blacks, on average, face housing discrimination about 4 million times per year. Even when people suspect they've faced discrimination, proving it can be daunting.Though millions of instances of discrimination occur each year, only about 10,000 complaints are filed annually with HUD or state or local fair housing enforcement agencies. HUD typically issues charges of discrimination in about 2 percent of the cases it receives.Share Your StoryAre you one [of] the millions who've faced housing discrimination?Did you suspect you were discriminated against, but thought you couldn't prove it or that authorities would not do anything about it? Did you know where to file a complaint? If you filed a complaint, did you feel your case was handled well or were you disappointed with the outcome?Are you a leasing agent, lender or real estate agent who was encouraged or instructed to discriminate against home seekers based on their race or ethnicity?Share your story with us.

I have 1-2-3 DAKINE SKI BAGS
RIght I have 3 Dakine Ski Bags - Not for ski use tho'!- I actually use these bags to store MY KITES. Yes! Professional Stunt Dual Kites - I have 8 kites per bag, and it is major perfect to carry around the flying field - beach and sand - NO PROBLEM -
I like the padding - it just feels weird carrying the kite bag on ONE SIDE - that was how the Kite was designed... I was hoping I can carry it with at least 2 strap WRAPPED around the bag - It's OK .. I am happy
Close but no cigar
Too short for my 170cm K2s. . . spec said the bag measured 170cm. Also, the bag SCREAMS an ad for Dakine (since you can't see online that the brand is in black-on-black design all over the frickin thing).
Great comprimise between cost and toughness
Did a great job protecting my skis from baggage handlers at the airport (packing your skis with some extra clothes always helps too).
A small note: My K2 179cm Public Enemies barely fit in the 185cm version of this bag.
nice bag
this bag is good for the money and it looks nice. the bottom padding is a nice feature so you don't need to worry about banging your skis when putting them in.
no pockets and my 184cm skis barely fit in it: I have to pull a bit hard to get them in.
worked out just fine
The guy driving the shuttle from the airport up to Alta said it was a nice looking bag. I tend to agree with him.
Having said that, the brake on the binding came pretty close to rubbing through the bottom of the bag on the way home...I think its the best deal for the money but be careful how you pack it.
Decent bag for travel
Bought this so I could take my skis as checked baggage. Worked well. I used my ski clothes to add extra padding. Would be better with wheels as it can get rather heavy to tote everything.
Also, I kept forgetting to do this, but it's a good idea to take the strap off and pack it, before you check the bag, as it might get lost during travel.
Good for the price.
Good padding on bottom and tips, but no padding on sides and top.
Great bag for the money
I really like this bag. Very rugged and high quality materials-- should last a long time. When I fly with them, I use a layer of bubble wrap. The bottom is padded, but the sides and top are not.
good package/wrong color
My Hot Run Nordica 178's, Marker bindings and poles fit with room to spare. Good solid construction, but think I'd rather have a hard shell for checking on an airplane. Would pad with clothes for more protection if flying. Since I'm driving; no worries. Ordered "Black Patches", but received "Black". No big deal. Good value.
good deal
this bag is awesome, but i lost the strap in Airport
who knows where i can buy it?
I have a strap that I don't use and was going to give to goodwill. If you want it I will mail it to you.
it is listed at a length of 185, but does...

Famous quotes containing the words card and/or category:
"In the game of Whist for two, usually called Correspondence, the lady plays what card she likes: the gentleman simply follows suit. If she leads with Queen of Diamonds, however, he may, if he likes, offer the Ace of Hearts: and, if she plays Queen of Hearts, and he happens to have no Heart left, he usually plays Knave of Clubs."
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (18321898)
"Despair is typical of those who do not understand the causes of evil, see no way out, and are incapable of struggle. The modern industrial proletariat does not belong to the category of such classes."

Silence on same-sex marriage is not an option
John Stonestreet's new book, Same-Sex Marriage: A Thoughtful Approach to God's Design for Marriage, is due out at the end of the month. Early on in the book, he and co-author Sean McDowell note, "The speed at which same-sex marriage went from unthinkable to unquestioned is unparalleled in modern memory. A shift of these proportions leaves an enormous cultural wake. Given what is at stake, we can stay silent no longer." Stonestreet is a culture expert from the Colson Center for Christian Worldview.
Do you say that bit about silence on this issue because you're worried about a tendency among some in this generation to be silent where same-sex marriage is concerned? We do look around and see a lot of people being tentative in saying anything about this issue. A lot of people are trying to stay out of it, from megachurches to Christian organizations to relatives at holidays and Christmas. We don't want to bring it up. But also it's extremely difficult to answer this question … in a sound bite sort of way. This is a long treatment.
I think a lot of people, particularly young people, want to know: Given so many people reject the Bible, is there a non-religious argument against same-sex marriage, an imperative from history or culture or law that will appeal to people who don't accept biblical arguments. You can, but there's two parts to this. Initially, you said, can we appeal to an argument that's not part of the Bible and will people accept it? Those are two different things. This is one of the most important parts of the book, is shaping the historical context. We know ideas have consequences, but they also have context. In some cultural context, the best arguments, they're not heard. They're not able to be heard. That's really where we're at now. That said, the effectiveness of arguments doesn't reduce our reason to give them. To go through this point-by-point, I would start here: We haven't proven that marriage is a fundamental right. When I went to get a marriage license at the county courthouse in Tennessee, they didn't ask me if I really, really loved my wife. They asked me if I was married and she was of age. It's not something that the state creates as a fundamental right. It's something that's part of the human experience and is the best way to produce and perpetuate the civilization through protecting children. …
Of all the research that's been proven, it's been proven that children function best in homes where there's a mom and a dad, a biological mom and a dad. If we do have adoptive situations, it's already a situation where we're trying to make the best out of something that is not the ideal. We don't want to make normal what the state already recognizes as being something to accommodate for something that's less than ideal. … No society in the history of the world, and this evidenced at every level, has treated same-sex couples at the same level as marriage. Even societies that had a pretty licentious view of sexuality still set aside the man-woman relationship as different, as separate, as unique. If we're going, for example, to those countries which have had same-sex marriage for a while, what we've seen is that countries that have same-sex marriage, they call everything marriage. Then the thing that actually is marriage loses its luster. It's not unique at all, and so the marriage rate dramatically drops. That's what we see in Norwegian countries, for example, where same-sex marriage has been legal for a while, is people just don't get married because there's nothing to it. It's no different from co-habitation, so why use the time and the effort?
Listen to Nick Eicher's full conversation about same-sex marriage with John Stonestreet on The World and Everything in It:

Guardiola named 18 first-team players plus Barça B's Oier, Montoya, Bartra and Tello to Barça's Champions League team
Seydou Keita, who missed the match against Levante, received medical clearance to play this Monday
Afellay, who was cleared to play last week, was named to the team for the first time since he picked up his injury in September
Josep Guardiola has named 22 players to the Barça team for the Champions League semifinals. The manager named all 18 first-team players plus Barça B's Oier, Montoya, Bartra and Tello to the squad for the match against Chelsea this Wednesday. Seydou Keita, who was given medical clearance to play this Monday, and Ibrahim Afellay, the first time the Dutchman has been named to a squad since his injury this past September, both got the nod from the manager.
Session with 23 players
Before departing for London, the 22 players named to the FC Barcelona team and Marc Muniesa trained at the Camp Nou. As usual in Barça's away games in the Champions League, Guardiola is taking a third keeper, Oier. On another note, it's worth mentioning that Puyol and Mascherano are just one yellow card away from suspension.
The team travelled to London this Monday afternoon and will not return to Barcelona until Thursday, two days before the Clásico with Real Madrid.

First Resort pregnancy center lawsuit to proceed
SAN FRANCISCO—A lawsuit challenging a San Francisco ordinance that bans "misleading" advertising by pro-life pregnancy centers will proceed after a federal judge upheld its "equal protection" claim that the law unfairly favors one viewpoint over another.
The Pregnancy Information and Disclosure Ordinance was enacted last year, allowing the city attorney to regulate pro-life pregnancy centers' use of billboard space and Google search ads to reach pregnant women. The law exempts any organization that offers abortions or refers women to abortion providers, leaving only two pregnancy centers—First Resort and Alpha Pregnancy Center—under threat of violation, a $500 penalty.
First Resort filed suit against San Francisco city and county, citing that the law violates their First Amendment right to free speech, among other allegations. Last week, Judge Saundra Brown Armstrong dismissed some of First Resort's claims regarding the ordinance's constitutional vagueness and preemption by state law. Left-leaning media including the Feminist Wire and The Huffington Post claimed this a small victory amid legal defeats of similar measures nationwide.
But First Resort director Paul Sluis also called the ruling a victory, noting the judge further narrowed the ordinance's language, while upholding their claim that the law violates the Constitution's Equal Protection Clause. Furthermore, the city has yet to file a motion disputing First Resort's free speech allegation, Sluis said. "They have essentially left alone our number one argument in this lawsuit. Either they know they don't have a case, or they plan to attack us later on."
First Resort will proceed with the case, filing amended complaints for those the judge dismissed.
Judges have recently struck down similar ordinances in four New York and Maryland cities that require pregnancy centers to post notices that they do not provide abortions or have licensed medical staff. Litigation is pending for another law in Austin, Texas.
The Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), which is representing these pregnancy centers, expects judges will continue to oppose these laws: "It would take a fundamental rewriting for the first amendment for the government to regulate the speech of a nonprofit industry receiving no federal funding," said Casey Mattox, a senior counsel for ADF.
First Resort, which has locations in San Francisco, Redwood City, and Oakland, offers "counseling and medical care to women who are making decisions about unplanned pregnancies," according to its website. A registered nurse is present during operating hours and an OB-GYN doctor oversees the three clinics.
The new law claims pregnancy center ads and information mislead women into thinking pregnancy centers provide medical care and offer abortions. According to the legislation introduced by City Attorney Dennis Herrera and Supervisor Malia Cohen, a woman "loses time crucial to the decision whether to terminate a pregnancy," which could jeopardize her chances for an abortion.
So far, the city has not enforced the regulations against First Resort or Alpha Pregnancy Center.
ADF's Mattox said the law is intended to scare women away: "Women who go to these centers don't think they are in a doctor's office ... this is really about the abortion industry viewing these centers as competition for women. They're taking away their clientele."

Yahoo To Expand Mobile Software Suite To Windows Phones
Published on: 29th Aug 2006
Note -- this news article is more than a year old.
NEW YORK (Dow Jones) Yahoo will make its suite of software for high end mobile phones more widely available on Wednesday when it plans to unveil a version for smartphones that run Microsoft's Windows Mobile operating system.
The company's Go for Mobile software includes its email, search, photo, address book and calendar services, as well as access to news, sports and finance content. Yahoo offers many of its popular online services in mobile versions designed to fit content onto cellphones' smaller screens that are accessible using any Web-enabled phone. But the software provides a faster, smoother experience and additional features. For instance, users can store emails for reading when they don't have service and can automatically upload photos taken with their phone cameras into their Yahoo Photos accounts.
However, since Go for Mobile's launch in February, the software has only been available for certain Nokia phones, which run the Symbian operating system. In the US, consumers could only use the software if they got their service from Cingular Wireless and had one particular Nokia phone, said Yahoo spokeswoman Nicole Leverich. More services and Nokia phones are supported in Europe.
Making the software available to Windows Mobile smartphones, which include Motorola's popular Q phone and several Palm Treo phones, will nearly double Yahoo's reach. Last year, Microsoft shipped 6 million phones with its Windows Mobile software.
For now, these phone owners will have to download Yahoo's software. But starting early next year, partners such as Motorola will preinstall it on some phones, in moves that are likely to significantly expand its usage. Yahoo is in talks with Research in Motion to bring the software to its devices, Leverich said.
"This is about reach for us. We want to get it on all devices that are in consumers' hands," she said. "We definitely think expanding the reach of the service to new devices is going to help us continue to grow the service."
At Yahoo's annual analyst meeting in May, Chief Executive Terry Semel named mobile services as one of several major strategic "big bets" the company is making for the next five years. Yahoo wants to expand aggressively into this arena because mobile devices outnumber personal computers 2-to-1 and are key lines to consumers in hot emerging markets like India.

Are you experiencing dizziness or nausea from a new or old eyeglass? This is a typical complaint among first time eyeglass wearers or those getting acclimated to new prescription lenses.
Dizziness may also be your body's way of warning you that the glasses were built improperly. It could also mean that there has been a change in structure of this sunglass over time.
Top Ten Reasons for Dizziness from Glasses Include:
- They are made incorrectly.
- Your refraction is wrong.
- There was a large change in the prescription.
- The PD measurement doesn't coincide with what you should be wearing.
- It's your very first time wearing the glasses.
- Your progressive lenses were measured too high or too low.
- The curvature of the lens is too steep or too flat.
- The adjustment of the frame is off balance.
- The lens has too much prism.
- There are defective coating.
If the glasses is new, or you've been prescribed a stronger version than was previously used, this is to be expected. But the question is, how long should you anticipate this dizzy spell after first time use? Experts recommend giving the new prescription an adaptation period of approximately one week. If nothing changes, contact the ophthalmologist as soon as possible and discontinue use.
On the other hand, if there was an error in the way the prescription glasses were manufactured, such as the frame, coating or lens and their grade, check with the store's warranty policy to see if this can be exchanged for a better fit.
If your glasses is aged, your body may also be signaling that it's time to get a new eye glass frame, lenses, or a combination of both. Different brands will have varied life cycles, but part of maintaining vision, is checking eye glasses periodically for wear and tear.
Should you be experiencing any signs of dizziness, it's best to contact your optician or eye wear provider to discuss as soon as possible to make the necessary adjustments.

Haniyeh, Mashaal and other senior officials head to Egypt. Hamas spokesman says leaders will discuss Israeli violations of Pillar of Defense truce, Palestinian reconciliation
AFP, Elior Levy
Published: 03.30.13, 23:49 / Israel News
AFP, Elior Levy
Hamas spokesman Taher al-Nunu said Haniyeh will discuss his movement's complaints about Israeli compliance with an Egyptian-brokered truce,
which ended eight days of deadly violence in and around the Gaza Strip last November.
Related stories:
Last week, Hamas complained to Egypt
that Israel
was not keeping its end of the bargain.
Al-Nunu said that the Gaza premier would be discussing "the problem of (Palestinian) prisoners (held by Israel) and Hamas-Egypt relations."
The spokesman noted that reconciliation efforts between Hamas and the Fatah
faction of President Mahmoud Abbas
are also expected to be on the agenda.
On Friday, a senior Hamas official told the Italian news agency that the movement will soon declare the results of the politburo race. Meanwhile it was reported that the majority of Hamas' leadership are in Cairo ahead of the elections, according to Palestinian and Egyptian sources. It is possible the elections will be held in Doha later in the week.
Elections for Hamas' politburo have been delayed due to upsets caused by the movement's relocation from Damascus. The top candidates to replace Mashaal if he indeed steps down are Haniyeh and Moussa Abu Marzouk.
Ties between Hamas and Cairo have been tense after Egyptian forces closed down dozens of smuggling tunnels on the Gaza border.
Haniyeh will also seek to "clear the air" after Egyptian allegations of Hamas involvement in a deadly attack on Egyptian soldiers in the Sinai Peninsula last year, Hamas sources said.

Jack the Ripper
In the mid-19th century, England was robust with new Irish immigrants. An area known as the whitechapel in London's East End became increasingly overcrowded. Due to the lack of proper housing and work, an economic underclass developed. Crime rates increased and poverty led many females to prostitution. London's Metropolitan Police Service estimated 1200 prostitutes and ~62 brothels in Whitechapel alone in October 1888. Whitechapel was known as a den of immorality. Within these circumstances, a serial killer was made–Jack the Ripper.
Jack the Ripper Murders
A series of 11 murders in the Whitechapel area occurred during a period of about three years during 1888-1891. Police were unable to tag the murders to any single suspect, but five of the murders, known as the "canonical five", are believed to be the work of Jack the Ripper. The murders were all carried out in a similar manner–deep throat slashes, abdominal and genital-area mutilation, removal of internal organs, and progressive facial mutilations.
The Canonical Five
- Mary Ann Nichols — Friday 31 August 1888. Throat severed deeply by two cuts. Lower abdomen partly ripped open by deep, jagged wound. Several incision on abdomen.
- Annie Chapman — Saturday 8 September 1888. Throat severed by two cuts. Abdomen slashed entirely open. Uterus removed.
- Elizabeth Stride — Sunday 30 September 1888. One clear-cut incision severed main artery on left side of neck.
- Catherine Eddowes — Sunday 30 September 1888. Throat severed. Abdomen ripped open by long, deep, jagged wound. Left kidney and major part of uterus removed.
- Mary Jane Kelly — Friday 9 November 1888. Throat severed to spine. Abdomen emptied of organs. Heart missing.
Jack the Ripper Letters
During the course of the Ripper murders, police, newspapers and other media outlets received hundreds of letters regarding Jack the Ripper. Three of the most prominent were claimed to have been written by the Ripper himself. These letters include:
- "Dear Boss" letter – sent with one ear partially cut off. First use of "Jack the Ripper" as signor
- "From Hell" letter – sent with half of a kidney. Thought to be a joke. Also signed by Jack the Ripper
- Openshaw Letter —
Old boss you was rite it was the left kidny i was goin to hoperate agin close to your ospitle just as i was going to dror mi nife along of er bloomin throte them cusses of coppers spoilt the game but i guess i wil be on the job soon and will send you another bit of innerds
Jack the Ripper
O have you seen the devle with his mikerscope and scalpul a-lookin at a kidney with a slide cocked up.
The mystery of Jack the ripper has never solved and remains one of the greatest mysteries in criminal justice.

I want to change a python function to return two values. How do I achieve that without affecting any of the previous function calls which only expect one return value?
For eg.
Original Definition:
def foo():
x = 2
y = 2
return (x+y)
sum = foo()
Ne Definition:
def foo():
x = 2
y = 2
return (x+y), (x-y)
sum, diff = foo()
I want to do this in a way that the previous call to foo also remains valid? Is this possible?

Leyton stabbing: Man in court charged with murder of model
14:28 03 August 2013
A man charged with the murder of a model who was stabbed to death in Leyton has appeared in court.
David Gikawa, 38, is accused of killing Linah Keza while she was at home with her young daughter on Wednesday.
He appeared at Thames Magistrates' Court today, where he was remanded in custody.
Gikawa spoke only to give his name, date of birth and address, of King Edward Road, Leyton, during the one minute hearing.
He will appear next at the Old Bailey on Tuesday.
Ms Keza, 29, was found with stab wounds to her chest at her home in King Edward Road at around 4.30am and was pronounced dead at the scene.
Tributes have been paid to the model, who was born in Uganda before moving to Rwanda as a teenager.
She came to the UK more than 10 years ago and graduated from the University of Wolverhampton.
Her brother Jack Hodari told the Evening Standard: "It's so tragic that good people die this young.
"I am not saying this because she was my sister, but the whole world can tell you this."
Chairman of the Rwandan Community in London, Patrice Shema, said: "We still can't believe that Linah is gone. You see these things on television but when it happens to you and it's a close friend, that's when the reality hits home.
"Linah has been a very active member of our community. She was such a wonderful girl, very happy, passionate about modelling."
The community is now trying to raise money to have her body flown back to Rwanda when it is released by police.
Ms Keza, who was registered with the AMC Agency, was reportedly a contestant in Miss Africa 2010.
An AMC Agency spokesman said: "She was very compassionate, amazing and a professional girl. Everybody that met and worked with her via the agency will miss her greatly."
Police watchdog the Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) is investigating contact between police and Ms Keza before she died.

Durability and Fatigue Analysis
Calculate Product Life Using In-Depth Durability and Fatigue Analysis
Your latest design may be lightweight and look great, but will it stand the test of time? How long a product lasts in operation greatly influences customers' perception of quality and reliability, and so the ability to predict product life early in the development process lets you more easily make the right engineering decisions. Physical fatigue and durability testing is extremely time-consuming and costly, and so the best way to evaluate product life is through durability and fatigue analysis.
NX CAE helps to validate a product's structural integrity over its entire lifecycle under either simple or complex loading conditions. Expert analysts can use NX CAE to perform in-depth fatigue analysis and life calculations to help them determine product durability based on NX Nastran, NX Motion, NX Response Simulation, MSC Nastran, Ansys and Abaqus solutions. Designers can also utilize durability wizards in their design environment to quickly check whether in-service loadings are likely to cause early failure in parts subjected to cyclic loads, and then quickly make the necessary design changes to compensate.
Integrated Durability Analysis
NX CAE allows you to perform in-depth fatigue analysis and life calculations. Designers can obtain early feedback on the life of designs using a guided process.
Analysis can be based on static or transient event data, with support for multiple life criteria. Contour plots can be created for fatigue life, damage and safety reports.
Complete Workflow, from Design to Motion to Durability
With NX CAE, you can save time and speed analysis by easily transferring motion simulation results from NX Motion as input for durability analysis. The entire workflow is completed without the need for manual data translations or transfers between different applications. When designs change, associativity to the CAD data means that results can be quickly updated.

Kim Kardashian
Kim Kardashian, Kanye West on Valentine's Day: "A Thousand Roses," One Weird Bed Pose (PHOTOS)
Maybe the photo below is meant to show Kim Kardashian's swooning reaction to so many beautiful red roses. Otherwise, what is she doing? Showing off her shoes? Her slim body? Doing a little yoga? Preparing for ... somethin' else?
Kim shared the flower photo late Valentine's Day night, labeling the Instagram pic, "A thousand roses."
We're guessing the roses came from her fiancé, Kanye West. According to E!, Kim and little Nori flew to the East Coast to be with Papa Kanye on February 14, and Kim tweeted that there's "Nothing better than being with my love on Valentine's Day!"
Kanye is currently on tour, and Kim later shared this concert pic, writing, "My date with Yeezus tonight #YeezusEastCoastTour #Baltimore." She followed up with a behind-the-scenes shot of the two lovers apparently riding a cart backstage, having a conversation in a tight hallway where no one could get by.
That's the photo above, and it's pretty much dying for a caption. (What do you think the guy pointing in the back is trying to say?)
Anyway, it looks like Kimye enjoyed their first Valentine's Day as Mom and Dad, so that's good. But what are they going to do with all of the roses?

Opening statement:
It's a pleasure to be here and have an opportunity to work with Kyle and the coaching staff, who I've gotten to spend some time with over the last three days. And the players, that's what it's always about to me. That's what I miss the most in the year that I didn't coach. It's fun to be here. The new facility is going to be unbelievable. This place has a tremendous chance to win this league, be involved in this league. It's about facilities, it's about getting used to the competition, the league itself. We played here my last year at Arizona State, and the place was packed. The students were unbelievable. You can always tell good football programs by how the students are and how excited they are about the game. It was fun to play in that atmosphere and be able to come out of it alive. That's special too. And then the town of Salt Lake has grown so much over the years. A town that's ready for the Pac-12. I'm excited to have the opportunity to be here.
On adapting to a new job:
[Kyle's] the boss. He's the head coach. I'm here to try to help him be successful, whatever it takes to be successful. I'm brought in to help the group offensively. By the way, people are upset over the last couple of years, but I think we forget how good Utah was 4-5 years ago. We're trying to get back to those roots a little bit as far as what we're doing offensively. But that's what it's all about, being able to blend in and do what it takes to be successful here. What's different is I'm just coaching the offense. I don't have to deal with the other issues that go along with being a head coach, which I've had to do for 40 years. Believe me, I don't miss it that much, at this point anyway.
On the offensive personnel:
Travis [Wilson] obviously has some experience coming back at quarterback. The thing that we are doing right now as a staff is looking at the offensive personnel. They know the personnel, I don't know the personnel, to be honest with you. I haven't had enough time to look at a lot of tapes, so we are sitting down as an offensive staff and talking about personnel and getting information all the time. We'll continue to get that information. As far as what we want to do offensively, we've got some receivers who are very skilled, some real big receivers, reminds me of some that I've had over the years. Like I said, a quarterback who is tough and young and is going to get better all the time. I look at the offensive front and there are some awfully big guys there who can move around. That all takes some time. That's what we're looking at. We're trying to get back into running the shotgun most of the time, running some read-option stuff, spreading them out, doing those types of things that were done here before. We all believe in the same thing. It's just a matter of all being on the same page and all knowing what we want to get done and all of us have the same goal to do it and just get better on offense.
On what attracted him to the job:
I've always had great respect for Kyle. I go back looking at this program over the years when I coached at Wyoming and we competed against them. Ron McBride is a good friend. I saw a program that was making a change. A change to this league. To me, it was a real challenge to make that move, to help them make that move, knowing that we can. That's the biggest reason. I'm a west coast guy, I wanted to stay out on the west coast. A lot of my recruiting contacts are in California, although there are some in Florida. I just thought this would be a great opportunity to get back and try to help a program get to the next level, so that's basically why I'm here.
On calling plays:
I did it three years ago at Arizona State. My last year and a half I didn't, but I was always involved. I found out one thing over the years, that if you have good players, plays are very easy to call. When you have your quarterback that's hurt all the time, it's pretty hard to call plays. It's all relative to who calls plays, whether I'll call plays or Brian will call plays, we don't know that. We're just going to work together as a group and see what works out the best.
On this maybe being his last job:
What's the lifespan of a guy? I can't give you a time. I don't know my timetable, period. I know I'm happy coaching here. I don't miss being a head football coach at all. I could see myself being here the rest of my career - could be three years, could be four years, could be two years. Probably not 10 years. I just take it a day at a time and see what I can do to help make this program successful.
On the up-tempo game trending in the Pac-12:
That's what we've been talking about. We want to do it. As you look at the top 10 offenses in college football, all of them run 75-80 plays. You can't run 75-80 plays and huddle. There is a reason they get all those yards, it's because they're not huddling. There is a lot to be said for that. And in saying that, doing that is a little harder than people think. There are a lot of communication things; you have to know what you want to do. We've met the last couple of days, and it's been fun because we all want to do the same thing, and that's going to be one of them. We're going to no-huddle. I think eventually that's what we'll do. I think that we'll also be able to have the pace to not huddle, but be able to slow it down. Not huddling is one thing. The pace of the game is the other. There are different ways to do it. In the NFL, there is a lot of non-huddle but they don't do it all the time because that's how the game is played. But that's what we're planning on doing.
On advice for a young coach:
Pay attention, ask questions. Brian is a superstar in our business. I've spent 3-4 days with him, and he is. You're not a player like that, and do the things he does as a competitor and not be able to transfer that to a coach. We'll spend a lot of time together. Hopefully he'll learn from me, because I know I'll learn from him. It's a two-way street. You've always got something to learn.
On the first day on the job:
It's been a real tough two weeks for me. Two weeks ago today, I had a hip replacement. That's a devastating surgery, it really is. I had it last Wednesday, and have been through all the physical therapy and stuff, and be able to walk in here, which I was proud of. I told my wife I was not going to Utah with a cane. I was not sending that message to those players. If I have to crawl, I'm crawling in here. But it's been an interesting two weeks for me. I interviewed right before the hip replacement and I've been in Phoenix for about seven or eight days trying to heal this thing, then I got on a plane yesterday and here I am. I like the colors. I think it looks pretty good on me. I'm an Under Armour fan, and it's great putting that on.

Ça y est, we've moved to Lyon! We've been in our new place for a couple of weeks now, and instead of showing you all photos of the jumbled, box-filled life we're sorting through right now, I thought it was about time that I posted about our trip to Prague.
Somewhere between Toulouse and Lyon, we hopped an orange plane for the city that was once the capital of Bohemia.
My good friend Caitlin has been living in Prague for a while now and we've been meaning to make a trip to visit. When we found out that Edd would have 10 days of freedom between leaving his old job and beginning his new one, we grabbed two tickets and packed a small travel bag as we packed up the rest of our lives in Toulouse.
Prague in autumn is simply gorgeous. Though the weather was a bit gray, I found that the soft gray skies proved to be the best backdrop for the golden architectural accents and the vibrant fall foliage. Caitlin and her boyfriend Petr were marvelous hosts and guides. Our arrival in Prague closely following a string of chaotic weeks; I was working again for the Printemps de Septembre festival, Edd was finishing up his old job, and we were both hurriedly packing and scrubbing our apartment. We hadn't had a single moment to plan our trip beyond buying the plane tickets and a few emails to Caitlin.
Happily, we were received with open arms! Caitlin and Petr had planned a series of wonderful outings, centered of course mainly around one activity: pivo! We drank heartily on this vacation – at least one liter a day, per person! Edd and I already being beer-lovers, and with Czech beers being at once so tasty and so easy to drink, Caitlin and Petr didn't have to twist our arms. And I haven't even gotten started on the food! We stuffed ourselves! So many good dumplings, braised meats, and my new favorite: pickled hermelín.
In addition to the delicious grub and brew, Caitlin and Petr drove us to the city of Plzeň, birthplace of none other than the original pilsner lager recipe.
Beer disciples that we are, we of course toured the Pilsner Urquell Brewery facilities, which included a visit to their bottle processing center, both the new and old brew houses, and a walk though the labyrinthine caves where the beer is still fermented.
The tour was so much fun, especially to photograph (definitely worth the 100CZK for the photo pass.) And to top it all off, it comes with a complimentary pint of the unfiltered pilsner, tapped straight from the massive barrels.
Our four days in Prague flew right by us and before we knew it, it was time to take our plane back to Lyon. As we left for the airport, rain turned to sleet and sleet to snow. Which is to say that our flight out of Prague turned out to be on Not-So-Easy Jet.
Eventually though, we made it back to our new home, where it was also snowing! Driving back from Lyon St. Exupery and arriving in our new flat, boxes piled everywhere, was so strange. Not so homey at all really and perhaps even more foreign feeling than it had been in Caitlin and Petr's cozy place.
But so it all began. Life in Lyon. Feathering up a new nest. Transforming an empty space into home. More soon, promise!
