The eyes are one of the most important sense organs because the visual information is thus transformed into many activities. This means that our eyes are constantly under pressure and stress.
The stress and strain related eye disorders are common in the present era due to the use of computers and other gadgets.
The deterioration of eye health and vision is influenced by many factors such as watching T.V. for a longer duration, working on computers or laptops for long hours, using mobile phones etc.
Other factors for weak eyesight are diabetes, excessive smoking or alcohol intake, nervous disability etc.
Our eyes are mainly affected due to technology addiction, wrong postures, wrong choices of food and unhealthy sleeping habits.
According to Ayurvedic principles, eye disorders are the seat of Pitta imbalance particularly Alochak Pitta.
There are many ways to improve eyesight, according to Ayurveda.
1. If you wear spectacles and your eyes are weak, soak 3 munakka (Vitis vinifera) in water overnight. Chew these soaked grapes in the morning with 3 seeds of black pepper. This remedy is beneficial for the weakness of the eyes.
2. Massage the soles of feet with mustard oil before going to bed. In the morning, walk bare foot in the morning. Doing Anulom Vilom Pranayam regularly helps in weak eyesight.
3. Triphala Powder: Soak Triphala powder overnight in water. In the morning, sieve this powder in a cloth and drink this water. This water is suitable for all the eye problems. By the use of Triphala, the body gets good amounts of Vitamin C.
4. Almonds, Fennel and Sugar Candy: Mix all the ingredients in equal proportions. Take 1 spoon of this mixture with warm milk during bed time.
5. Massaging with cow's ghee on the temple region is useful in weak eyesight.
Tratak: Tratak is an eye exercise whose reference is found in Ayurvedic texts. In Ayurveda, it is recommended to stimulate Alochak Pitta. It is practiced throughout India and is believed to increase eyesight.
The main practice of tratak is to gaze. Any object can be used for gazing. Now, focus on it and gaze at it without blinking.
Although it is traditionally performed with the help of candles. Concentrate on the gaze on an object without blinking, until the eyes begin to tear.
Then, close the eyes and try to maintain the vivid image of that particular object for as long as possible.
Ayurveda offers simple and natural ways of improving the eyesight.
What are the Herbal Remedies Offered by Planet Ayurveda for Weak Eyesight?
1. Angel Eye Vitals: Angel Eye Vitals of Planet Ayurveda is an herbal formulation that gives wonderful results in weak eyesight. It is rich in minerals and vitamins that give nutrition to the eyes. These capsules are loaded with vitamins and minerals such as Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Beta-carotene, Zinc, Copper, Lutein, Zeaxanthin, Astaxanthin and Bilberry.

The extract of Bilberry is used for eye problems such as decreasing eyesight, vision disturbances, night vision, retinal detachment, cataract etc. The anti-oxidant properties of bilberry helps in improving night vision and helps the eyes to adapt to changes in light.


A few weeks ago, I sat down with my publisher, Literary Wanderlust, and discussed my historical romance, The Pirate's Bride, which will release on Jauary 1, 2017. Here is the rest of that interview. I hope you enjoy it.
There are many conflicts in this book. Sophie must overcome her fear of intimacy, or she will never be able to love, or be loved. She must also show her husband that she is a strong, independent woman, so that he doesn't use her as a doormat. Andre's conflict is that he thinks love makes a man weak. If he doesn't realize that the opposite is true, he will never know true love until it is too late. There is also the conflict between Sophie's suitors, as well as between Zheng and Andre. The layers of conflict are what propel this story along.
I would love to spend time with Louis Dubois, Andre's father and the leader of all the pirates. I would love to hear stories of his sailing experiences. I would also like to sail with him, and then eat dinner at his home in New Orleans. I think he's a man who enjoys good food, and would make sure I was well fed. I also think he knows how to treat a woman.
What was your favorite part of writing The Pirate's Bride?
My favorite part of writing The Pirate's Bride has to be the scene where Andre discovers Sophie has become a pirate. His reaction, and the subsequent confrontation, was so fun to create. Pitting the two characters against each other was like lighting a dynamite fuse and waiting for the explosion.
Usually a plot pops into my head from something I see around me. My first book, Prisoner of Love, came to me when I saw a prison work crew on the side of the freeway. The Pirate's Bride came to me from a "revenge" prompt given in an online writing group to which I belong. That scene is an integral part of the story to this day.
My characters develop organically. That is, I usually have an inspiration picture of my hero and heroine based on various film stars already in my head. I may know that I want my hero to be an Alpha male that thinks he doesn't need any woman in his life, and a strong heroine that doesn't want a man telling her what to do. However, their individual personalities come out while I'm writing. Their dialogue and behavior evolve as I write particular scenes, often as though they have minds of their own. They follow the general idea I imagined, but they create themselves to a large degree.
And, there you have it. I hope you've enjoyed this piratey discussion, and that it has tempted you to purchase the book. If so, I've provided the buy links to both digital and print copies below. I look forward to hearing what you think!

Choking is one of those taboo words athletes shun at any cost.
There are a lot of theories and suppositions about the source or cause of choking.
I recently came across this video used by a US squash coach to explain to his team that choking is NOT in your genes – UNLESS you're a goat.
What I liked about this is that it's a visual cue you can use to prevent choking whenever you're feeling stressed or under pressure – just remember… YOU'RE NOT A GOAT!


As the children were getting ready for school, I caught a glimpse of the sunrise so I went out on the porch to *take a picture*. It was a stunner.
From the same spot on the porch, I took this picture just half an hour later…because my little Sarah said, "It's snowing, you need to go *take a picture*"!
She wanted to touch it and taste it.
The three of us went upstairs to her bed, which is right by the window, so we could watch the gentle snow come down. We read Jan Brett's Snowy Treasury (highly recommended) while snuggled up in blankets.
Then, after lunch, I took them outside to make snow angels, to eat the snow, to touch it.
A Brave Hen ate some, too. The other seven were confused and hesitant.
She was shaking the snow down.
She was really proud of her Snow Suit (which all my children have worn in turn).
There was an early dismissal! This is handsome E, making a funny face as I snap his picture with my zoom lens.
I just had Jacob start the fire in the fireplace, and I'm kinda bummed because he and E made plans on the bus to go over to their friend Zach's house for the rest of the day. They said I can't keep them to myself. I did insist that Grace stay home. She's been gone so much with her singing programs that it will be nice to have her here all afternoon. Soon David and Caleb will arrive and I hope to watch a movie with them, either "Home Alone" or "The Chronicles of Narnia". I have gingerbread dough chilling in the fridge, so we can make cookies, too.
We had snow today too…not much though. I love it.
I also love Jan Brett!
Happy Snowy Day to you.
yes yes they dont like to be kept:) silly boys! How did the gingerbread cookies turn out?
I love the snow pictures you take each year. Beautiful! And your tree….I love that you put it right in front of the window so you can see it from outside as well….pretty pretty pretty!
Have a Merry Christmas Shanda!
It's absolutely beautiful! …both the sunrise and the snow.
What a breathtaking sunrise! I should get up to see them more often. 🙂 Beautiful shots of the snow too, just lovely.
Beautiful photo of Seth and Sarah in their red and blue against the gorgeous white-covered trees!
Ah..that snowsuit..and the little cutie wearing it! adorable! Precious, sweet days with all of your children at home ❤. Your "winter" pictures are just breathtaking!

Though Napa and Sonoma may be California's claims to fame, there's a whole state of wine just waiting to be discovered. With over 480,000 acres under vine, supplying nearly 90 percent of America's wine production, there's more to the Golden State than just the North Coast. Today, we're heading south to California's Central Coast, specifically San Luis Obispo County, to discover the wines of the 'Pass of the Oak Trees': Paso Robles.
Although the United States is relatively 'new' to the winemaking world, grapes for viticulture sprouted up in Paso as early as the late 1700s. Vines were planted and tended by local missionaries, though wine wasn't actually sold as a marketable product until the late 19th century. Just 30 years ago, less than 20 wineries existed in the Paso Robles area; however, since the region's potential has become widely known, numbers have skyrocketed.
Today, over 200 wineries exist within the region's boundaries!
The Paso Robles area is divided into 11 sub-regions, encompassing a total of 40,000 acres under vines. The area receives approximately 15 inches of rain per year, which is significantly lower than the national average. Abundant sunshine and warm climates allow grapes to reach plump, juicy ripeness. The area is known for its signature grape, Zinfandel, Bordeaux blends, and Rhône varieties, both white and red. In fact, Paso Robles was home to California's first plantings of Syrah, Viognier and Roussanne. Today, over 40 grape varieties are grown within this versatile region's boundaries.
As prices rise within California's North Coast, many winemakers have been looking to the state's Central Coast for quality grape growing areas for a fraction of the cost. With the continuing rise in the number of Paso Robles-based wineries, an influx of tourism has also come to the area, too. Numerous wine-focused events, such as Vintage Paso, Paso Robles Wine Festival and Harvest Wine Weekend are put on annually, luring California wine lovers to discover the region's locally produced wines against the area's breathtaking scenery.
For California wine lovers looking to switch up their Golden State game, reach for the wines of Paso Robles, perfect for chilly nights, steak dinners and all things comfort food.

Vespa 70th Anniversary Edition first ride review
Ashok George | Updated: December 05, 2016, 05:59 PM IST
70 years is a big deal no matter how you look at it. If you're a human, chances are you've lived a long and happy life. If you're a tortoise, you'll be going through a midlife crisis. If you're a car, then by now you've become a classic. So yes, 70 years is a long time. And 70th anniversary calls for something special. For Vespa, which has been making cult scooters for exactly that amount of time, this means launching a special edition scooter to commemorate its little two-wheeled runabouts. The result is the Vespa 70th Anniversary Edition.
What makes the 70th Anniversary Edition so special? The long list of embellishments, of course. Firstly, there is the special Azzurro 70 paint scheme. Then there is the generous splash of chrome all over the scooter. The Anniversary gets a chrome perimeter guard, luggage carrier and a special fly screen. The seat too is finished in brown leather pattern fabric and has a 70th anniversary logo embossed on it. This same logo can be found all over the scooter - in the footwell and on the flanks, but in chrome. The additional bits make it stand out in a way that only Italian scooters do. But personally, I think them to be a bit over the top. But that's not saying it's bad looking. It just doesn't work for me.
Underneath it all though is the same VXL 150 that has been on sale in India for over a year. It uses a 3-valve, OHC, air-cooled 150cc single that makes 11.6PS and 11.5Nm. It is a sprightly motor and is quick off the line. It is refined too and at an 80kmph cruise on the highway, it doesn't feel one bit stressed. In fact, it feels quite comfortable at 80kmph and even has enough power in reserve to pull off overtakes. We managed to see near 110kmph on the speedo without too much effort, which means that true speed should be somewhere around 100kmph.
The monocoque chassis has always made the Vespas great handlers. The small wheel formula does tend to make them super flickable, and this holds true for the Anniversary too. Direction changes are super fast and you need a measured hand to not overcook it. That said, I'm not a fan of small-wheeled two-wheelers that can go silly fast. At high speeds, the small wheels make the Vespa very twitchy, and it isn't a confidence-inspiring feeling. The trailing link suspension up front doesn't help matters either. Aside from feeling unsettled at high speeds, it also isn't very pliant over bad roads. In fact, you'll be bouncing around over anything but perfect roads.
At Rs 1.24 lakh (on road, Mumbai), the Vespa 70th Anniversary Edition isn't cheap by any means. And like all other Vespas, this one too is more of a style statement than a workhorse or a performer - which explains the price tag to some extent. But the real threat for the Vespa now comes from its family. For roughly two-third the price, you get another Italian scooter that is far more exciting and does almost everything, what the Vespa does, better. That, if nothing else, should surely make you think long and hard about the Anniversary.

Researchers found greater effect in the pseudophakic eye.
After studying the effects of decentration and tilt on image quality in both aphakic and pseudophakic eyes with the type I Boston keratoprosthesis (KPro), researchers found decentration of up to 0.5mm had no significant impact on image quality.
However, they did find decentration of 0.9mm or more during surgical implantation can result in significant degradation in retinal image quality, including astigmatism, with the effect being greater in the pseudophakic eye.
The study, published in the June issue of Cornea, used an optical ray-tracing program to simulate the image projected onto the retina in an eye with a perfectly centered KPro and in eyes with varying degrees of KPro decentration and tilt. Decentration was modeled along a typical white-to-white distance of 12.0mm, and the corresponding tilt was calculated assuming a radius of curvature of 8.0mm—i.e, that of the KPro back plate. The researchers simulated both aphakic and pseudophakic eyes and analyzed the corresponding modulation transfer function curves, point spread functions and astigmatism.
Data showed the perfectly centered KPro produced a high-quality image with no induced astigmatism. Additionally, increasing decentration beyond approximately 0.5mm resulted in poorer image quality with a more pronounced effect in the presence of an intraocular lens. Using models of the normal eye as a threshold, image degradation due to decentration became clinically significant at approximately 1.4mm and 0.9mm for the aphakic and pseudophakic cases, respectively.

Beowulf (Ray Winstone) este un războinic viteaz legendar din Götaland care călătorește în Danemarca alături de trupa sa de soldați, din care face parte și cel mai bun prieten al său, Wiglaf (Brendan Gleeson), ca răspuns la apelul regelui Hrothgar (Anthony Hopkins), care are nevoie de un erou pentru a omorî un monstru pe nume Grendel (Crispin Glover), o creatură desfigurată și hidoasă asemănătoare cu un troll și cu puteri supraomenești, care atacă sala miedului a lui Hrothgar, Heorot, ori de câte ori danezii organizează acolo o serbare. După ultimul atac al lui Grendel, regele Hrothgar a fost nevoit să închidă sala. La sosire, Beowulf devine atras imediat de soția lui Hrothgar, regina Wealtheow (Robin Wright Penn), care îl place și ea.

Beowulf și oamenii lui sărbătoresc în Heorot, în scopul de a-l atrage acolo pe Grendel. Când monstrul apare, Beowulf îl atacă neînarmat și gol, dându-și seama că Grendel este imun la arme mortale și nu poartă arme asupra lui, iar armura și o sabie ar fi inutile în luptă. Urmărindu-i reacțiile în timpul luptei corp la corp, Beowulf descoperă că Grendel are un auz hipersensibil, acesta fiind motivul pentru care întrerupea serbările lui Hrothgar - zgomotul care îl făceau ei era dureros pentru el din punct de vedere fizic. Astfel, Beowulf reușește să-l rănească mortal pe Grendel, rupându-i un braț. Drept mulțumire pentru eliberarea împărăției lui de monstrul care i-a amenințat ani de zile, Hrothgar îi dă lui Beowulf Cornul Regal al Dragonului, un corn de băut din aur pe care l-a dobândit după lupta cu Fafnir, balaurul din mlaștinile nordului.

În interiorul peșterii lui, muribundul Grendel îi spune mamei sale cine l-a ucis și cum, iar ea jură răzbunare, călătorind noaptea în Heorot după serbare și ucigându-i pe oamenii lui Beowulf în timp ce ei dormeau. Hrothgar le spune lui Beowulf și Wiglaf, care dormiseră în afara sălii, că aceasta este lucrarea Mamei lui Grendel, care este ultima din neamul demonilor de apă și despre care Hrothgar gândea că părăsise de multă vreme acele tărâmuri. Beowulf și Wiglaf călătoresc până la peștera unde se afla Mama lui Grendel pentru a o ucide. Numai Beowulf intră în peșteră, unde se confruntă cu Mama lui Grendel (Angelina Jolie), care ia forma unei femei frumoase. Ea se oferă să-l facă cel mai mare rege care a trăit vreodată, dacă acesta va fi de acord să-i dea un fiu pentru a-l înlocui pe Grendel și să îi dea cornul de băut din aur. Beowulf i-l dă și se întoarce, pretinzând că a ucis-o. Hrothgar, cu toate acestea, își dă seama de adevăr. El îi spune lui Beowulf indirect că și el a fost sedus de Mama lui Grendel și că era tatăl lui Grendel. După numirea în mod neașteptat a lui Beowulf ca succesor la tron, mai mult spre disperarea consilierului regal Unferth (John Malkovich) care spera ca regele să aibă un moștenitor, Hrothgar se sinucide.

După mai mulți ani, bătrânul Beowulf este căsătorit cu Wealtheow, care refuză să-i dea un moștenitor, deoarece el s-a culcat anterior cu un demon de apă. Ca urmare, Beowulf își ia o amantă, Ursula (Alison Lohman). Într-o zi, sclavul lui Unferth, Cain (Dominic Keating), găsește cornul de băut din aur într-o mlaștină din apropierea peșterii lui Grendel și, fără să-și dea seama ce este acolo, îl aduce înapoi în regat. În acea noapte, un sat din apropiere este distrus de un dragon care îl lasă pe Unferth viu cu scopul de a aduce un mesaj regelui Beowulf (dezvăluind că dragonul este, de fapt, fiul lui Beowulf născut de mama lui Grendel). Scoaterea cornului a încălcat înțelegerea dintre Beowulf și mama lui Grendel, care l-a trimis pe fiul lor, dragonul, pentru a-i distruge regatul.

Beowulf și Wiglaf merg din nou la peșteră și Beowulf intră singur. Când Mama lui Grendel apare, Beowulf îi aruncă Cornul de Aur pentru a nu-i mai ataca teritoriile. Mama lui Grendel consideră că este prea târziu pentru orice fel de acord și astfel ea îl eliberează pe dragon din peșteră pentru a ataca Regatul lui Beowulf și a încerca să le ucidă pe Wealthow și Ursula. Beowulf face un drum lung pentru a opri monstrul, atârnat de el și în cele din urmă ucide dragonul prin scoaterea afară a inimii sale. Beowulf este rănit mortal de căderea dragonului, dar el trăiește destul de mult pentru a vedea cum dragonul se transformă în forma sa adevărată, corpul humanoid al fiului său, înainte de a dispărea în mare. Beowulf vorbește apoi cu Wiglaf și încearcă să-i spună adevărul, dar moare înainte de a putea termina. Wiglaf îi consideră cuvintele lui ca simple halucinații, deși pare clar din conversația anterioară cu Beowulf, în afara peșterii dragonului, când Wiglaf refuză să asculte mărturisirea lui Beowulf, că Wiglaf este conștient de adevăr. La scurt timp după aceea, Wiglaf, noul rege, îi face lui Beowulf o înmormântare în stil nordic și privește de pe mal cum corpul eroului este luat de mare, iar Mama lui Grendel îi dă lui Beowulf o ultimă sărutare. Acum îi este imposibil să pretindă că nu știe adevărul. În acest moment, se pare că mama lui Grendel încearcă să-l seducă. Wiglaf intră în apă, tentat în mod clar, dar arătându-și refuzul de a o urma, iar filmul se termină.

Criticul Richard Corliss de la revista Time a descris filmul ca fiind unul cu "putere și profunzime" și sugerează că "scenele cu efecte arată mai reale, mai integrate în material vizuală (...). Totul sugerează că acest tip de filme este mai mult decât o cascadorie. Prin imaginarea trecutului îndepărtat atât de viu, Zemeckis și echipa sa dovedesc că captarea imaginii personajelor are un viitor." Corliss l-a înscris mai târziu ca al 10-lea cel mai bun film al anului 2007.

Metallic accents and autumnal shades are my latest obsession these days. An unexpected green color is present as well just enough to break this sort of monochromatic look and to animate a little bit more this Fall color palette.
I hope you all have a wonderful and colorful weekend!
Superb outfit, so chic and fashion forward one! Love your shoes and bag, so unique!

Matt Riddle Discusses If He's Any Closer To Wrestling Brock Lesnar, Opens Up About Talking With Goldberg
Wrestling NewsWWE News
'The Original Bro' Matt Riddle has opened up about how close he is to wrestling Brock Lesnar, as well as his talk with Goldberg.
By Steve Russell
Matt Riddle hasn't made it a secret that he would love to face Brock Lesnar. He also got into a back-and-forth with WWE Hall of Famer Goldberg that saw the two speak backstage about their issues.
In an interview with Sportskeeda Wrestling's Dropkick DiSKussions, Riddle opened up about the likelihood of achieving his dream match against Lesnar. He also shared how he wasn't particularly interested in a match with Goldberg.
"Well, the WWE… NXT has made mention of me wrestling Brock in promos and other things like that, but I've been calling out Brock since I started wrestling. It's such a huge goal. If I get close to that, I'll probably be really successful. If I do it, probably be a legend. Now I'm as close I've ever been, but I'm still pretty far."
Turning his attention to Goldberg, who he publicly mocked during his matchup against The Undertaker at WWE's Super ShowDown in June, Riddle admitted he never even wanted a match with the former WCW World Champion.
"With Goldberg, I was never even really wanting a match. I mean, I would take it for sure. He's Bill Goldberg, you know? The guy is money. At the same time, I never wanted a match. It was more so my opinion on his work rate and his wrestling – not his ability to generate money or put butts in seats. It was his salary, his work rate."
He continued, "I talked to Goldberg, we talked about it, he thought I was being disrespectful. I was like, 'Okay, man, that's my opinion. I'm just not a huge fan of your work. I'm just not. It's not great pro wrestling.' It's like, 'You've got a great jackhammer, great spear but the wrestling… Uhh.' I'm not lying. I feel like if I'm not lying, I'm not being disrespectful. Especially as that's how you make your money."
With NXT moving to USA Network and extending to two-hours, the WWE Universe may soon be able to see more of 'The Original Bro' on the black-and-gold brand.

Going From Spool File to HTML
Dynamic Systems Solutions Inc. (DSS, Pompano Beach, Fla.) has released the Web Report Creator, which is designed to facilitate the conversion of AS/400 spooled files to HTML format for automatic transport to the Web and with the claim that it eases the flow of information transfer and distribution, allowing organizations to increase user productivity.
To use the Web Report Creator, users complete the setup information, which includes defining background, fonts, images, etc., and the product does the rest.
The application is equipped with an AS/400 Internet Server and LAN-based capability, as well as automatic update of Web report postings, to provide a method for remote user access to information via the Internet.
"If a business is using an Intranet or Virtual Private Network (VPN) to distribute information to its staff or outside the company, they can simply put them into a queue on the AS/400. Those reports will then automatically trigger the Web Report Creator to access and download them—either to a Web hosting AS/400 or a LAN-based Web hosting system," says Rob Kirkwood, DSS VP. "They will be delivered in HTML format with minimal effort; you just need to set it up and forget it. Later, whenever you run that specified report, the Web Report Creator will refresh your Intranet content with the new data."
Kirkwood says companies can save time by delivering updated AS/400 reports via e-mail to selected groups, rather than sending out individual messages. "Before, users had to find the most current version of a report, download it and attach it to several e-mails for different departments in the company. Now, when users log onto the company Intranet, they can view specific pages for various departments, or they can all look at the same Web pages—whatever you decide."
To use the Web Report Creator, users complete the setup information, which includes defining background, fonts, images, etc., and the product does the rest. Users also have the capability of going into further definitions. For example, if two people run the same report, that report can be defined by individual user, by job name, by user data, or by whatever target is necessary to identify it on the Web server—which is all generated into the spool file. Web Report Creator will convert the specified spooled file into HTML format and dynamically transport it to the specified Web page where the appropriate users can access the desired information from any location.
Reports can also be reformatted in HTML, so when data is printed off the Web, it will appear with the same characteristics. Web Report Creator can increase or decrease the font size, and handles reports from 132 to 240 characters wide. Kirkwood claims it is a simple matter to turn a very bland AS/400 character-controlled type of report into a customized format.
The Web Report Creator is not targeted at any specific industry, but rather toward any company that uses the Internet as part of its information solution. Users of the product range from small companies that need store managers to review P&L reports from their intranet, up to multimillion dollar firms that want to transport financial statements or sales/marketing information out to their sales staff around the country.DSS reports there is no limitation on the number of spool files that can be processed at once—as many report files as users want to set up in the table, that's how many the Web Report Creator will try to process.The length of time for data processing is a direct function of the size of the spool file. "We once had a 10-page report file—to translate it, do all the coding, then transfer it to the LAN, only took about 20 seconds," says Kirkwood. "This is a very efficient application that does not require resizing machines or keeping disk considerations in mind when using the Web Report Creator."
In addition to the Web Report Creator, DSS offers software solutions for transition to electronic report distribution across multiple platforms. The DSS Report Distribution suite includes the AS/400 Document Routing System to facilitate the transfer and distribution of AS/400 spooled files via e-mail. The product includes report splitting, multiple copy distribution and automatic transfer capabilities.Pricing for the Web Report Creator is serial-number based per AS/400 and begins at $1,200.

Rest Wrapper
-------------

HTTP/REST client wrapper that provides a standard interface for making http requests using different http
clients. If no client is specified **it will choose the best http client** you have installed based on
our performance tests.

Features
========

* All clients behave exactly the same:
  * Same error behavior
  * Same 30X redirect behavior
  * Same response object methods
  * Same way to access and manipulate requests and responses such as body, headers, code, etc.
* Chooses best client you have installed on your system based on what we have found performs the best.
  * Currently net_http_persistent and typhoeus are nearly the same, but since net_http_persistent doesn't have a binary
    dependency, it wins.
  * You can run performance tests yourself by running: `ruby test/test_performance.rb`, quite a difference between the libs.
* Handles 503 errors with exponential backoff.

Getting Started
==============

Install the gem:

    gem install rest

Create an Rest client:

    @rest = Rest::Client.new()

To choose a specific underlying http client lib:

    @rest = Rest::Client.new(:gem=>:typhoeus)

Supported http libraries are:

* rest_client
* net_http_persistent
* typhoeus
* internal - this gem's built in client.

Then use it:

GET
------

    @rest.get(url, options...)

options:

- :params => query params for url
- :headers => headers

POST
-----

    @rest.post(url, options...)

options:

- :body => POST body
- :headers => headers hash
- :form_data => hash of fields/values, sent form encoded (only tested with default net-http-persistent)

PUT
------

    @rest.put(url, options...)

options:

- :body => POST body
- :headers => headers

DELETE
--------

    @rest.delete(url, options...)

Responses
=========

The response object you get back will always be consistent and will have the following functions:

    response.code
    response.body

Exceptions
======

If it didn't get a response for whatever reason, you will get a Rest::ClientError

If status code is 40X or 50X, it will raise an exception with the following methods.

    err.code
    err.response (which has body: err.response.body)

J.J. McCarthy becomes QB1, No. 4 Michigan tops Hawaii 56-10
(AP Photo/Jose Juarez)
By LARRY LAGE
ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) J.J. McCarthy did enough to win the job.
McCarthy was sharp in his first start, throwing for three touchdowns to help No. 4 Michigan overwhelm Hawaii 56-10 on Saturday night.
Wolverines coach Jim Harbaugh said McCarthy will be the team's first-string quarterback next week against Connecticut.
"He's earned it," Harbaugh said.
McCarthy had his turn to take the first snap after Big Ten championship-winning quarterback Cade McNamara had a lackluster performance in the season-opening win over Colorado State as the starter.
The sophomore made the most of his opportunity against the Rainbow Warriors, throwing a 42-yard touchdown pass to Roman Wilson on his second snap and 13-yard pass to Ronnie Bell early in the second quarter to give the Wolverines (2-0) a four-touchdown lead.
"It was a near-flawless performance," Harbaugh said. "He was 11 for 12, and one was dropped."
McNamara entered the game with 6:22 left in the first half and took a sack to end his first possession.
McCarthy went back in and threw for his third score, dropping back and stepping up in the pocket before connecting with Cornelius Johnson for a 17-yard touchdown late in the first half to give Michigan a 42-0 lead.
"I can't remember having one like that myself," said Harbaugh, a former Michigan and NFL quarterback.
McCarthy, a former five-star recruit, finished 11 of 12 for 229 yards without a turnover.
"He controlled the game," said Blake Corum, who ran for 88 yards and a touchdown on nine carries. "He was confident. I expected nothing less."
McNamara started the second half and the senior finished 4 of 6 for 26 yards with an interception.
"He's got gravel in his guts," Harbaugh said. "He'll be ready for his next opportunity."
The Rainbow Warriors (0-3) were scoreless until late in the third quarter when Matthew Shipley made a 26-yard field goal, taking advantage of favorable field position following their second sack of McNamara.
With Michigan backups getting a chance to play, freshman Tylan Hines ran for a 54-yard score to make it 49-10.
"What an experience for these guys that get to play here, and play an opponent like that," Hawaii first-year coach Timmy Chang said. "I'm proud of them. I'm proud of how they played four quarters, but it was a tall task for us."
HONOLULU GUY
Wilson, who hails from Honolulu, caught a touchdown pass on McCarthy's first throw and ran for a 21-yard score after the quarterback casually flipped it to him on an end-around.
"I think he knew almost everybody over there," Bell said. "He probably had a big weight on his shoulders and to play the way he did is awesome against his hometown."
Harbaugh said he did not have an update on running back Donovan Edwards, who was injured in the first half after he had 26 yards rushing and a score on three carries along with a 33-yard reception while lining up as a wide receiver.
LATE START
The game was scheduled to start at 8 p.m., but lightning in the area cleared the stadium before the game and led to a 1-hour delay.
Hawaii: Chang, a former star quarterback at the school, is facing quite a challenge. The Rainbow Warriors opened the season with two home games and lost 63-10 to Vanderbilt and 49-17 to Western Kentucky. Chang is following Todd Graham, who resigned as coach in January after former players and some parents criticized his management style and relationships with players.
Michigan: Before the season began, Harbaugh said he would decide on his Week 3 starter after both McCarthy and McNamara had a shot to start a game. McCarthy's talent as a passer and runner gave him an edge in the competition. McNamara accomplished a lot last year, but he has struggled this season and that has led to him losing his role as starter.
The Wolverines will likely remain ranked No. 4 because the teams ahead of them in the AP Top 25 also won their games.
Hawaii: Hosts Duquesne, a second-tier college football program that beat NAIA-level Thomas More after opening with two losses.
Michigan: Hosts Jim Mora-led Connecticut (1-2) in the third of four straight home games to open season.

Home › West Africa
Many views of Western Africa will define your travels here. From the desert of the Sahara in the north to the lush tropical rainforests of the coastal regions, West Africa has an astonishing landscape of breathtaking vistas that sweep across this region.
Western Africa including Central regions comprises of the following countries Benin, Burkina Faso, Cabo Verde, Côte d'Ivoire, Gambia, Ghana, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Liberia, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Nigeria, São Tomé and Príncipe, Senegal, Sierra Leone and Togo.
Made up of an astonishing mix of cultures, languages, history and wildlife the nations of West Africa promise more than you could imagine and is often ignored except for the few overland travellers. It is a lively and upbeat region of music, dance and good times, the kind of Africa many tourists hope to find.
Locals here are ready to stop and chat and here is your chance to offer a reply in your basic French.
Burkina Faso is at the crossroads of West Africa. Its capital Ouagadougou is one of those low rise dusty African towns. Unlike most other capitals Ouagadougou feels as if it was an African village that just grew and grew. Mali spans desert, Sahel and tropical areas: all significant differences across the country. Djenne is one of the best preserved and impressive of Mali's ancient trans-Saharan trading towns. Its mud built in classic style, including its beautiful mosque. The nearby remains of Jenne-Jeno are said to be the oldest south of the Sahara.
Senegal's most significant city Dakar where the long-ago car rally was held, is still a place to relax and unwind. The stretch of beach between the main road and the sea is awash with flocks of egrets and armies of sand crabs. Here, you can forget the hustle and bustle of the city's markets and listen to the waves as they lap the shore.
In the Gambia, you can do the opposite and head up the river. It is incredible how untouched most of the country is when you start exploring the delightful interior and discover its heart. Make a point of listening for the glorious music of Gamba, home to some of the very best kora playing and griot singing in Africa.
If sitting and watching the world go by entices you, then Bissau is a beautiful small old Portuguese town. Faded and dusty, it is still full of charm, and an excellent place to wander around and stop to sit on the veranda of one of the many local bars, sipping a draught beer and soaking in the atmosphere.
Western Africa's wildlife more meets the eye if you know where to look, including elephants, primates, big cats, pygmy hippos and some of the world's best birdwatching in the world. And unlike East or Southern Africa, you're likely to have whatever you find all to yourself.
The nation of Mali with its stunning landscapes, inspired artwork, castellated mosques made entirely of mud, pink sandstone villages shaped out of cliff faces, and undulating desert plains that look like a scene from Lawrence of Arabia.
Burkina Faso is at the crossroads of West Africa is an excellent destination for anyone interested in seeing a picturesque countryside and exploring African culture and music.
Immerse yourself into Benin's history and in doing so; you will stumble upon nearly three centuries of slave traders, the birthplace of voodoo kingdoms, dazzling palaces, floating villages on stilts and Temple of the Python.

The Meckel-Serres Conception of Recapitulation
Johann Friedrich Meckel and Antoine Etienne Reynaud Augustin Serres developed in the early 1800s the basic principles of what later became called the Meckel-Serres Law. Meckel and Serres both argued that fetal deformities result when development prematurely stops, and they argued that these arrests characterized lower life forms, through which higher order organisms progress during normal development. The concept that the embryos of higher order organisms progress through successive stages in which they resemble lower level forms is called recapitulation.

Cruz's Struggle: This Man Loves to Argue
By Stuart Rothenberg
Posted April 20, 2015 at 11:14am
(Tom Williams/CQ Roll Call File Photo)
The first time I met Ted Cruz, he argued with me. The second time I met Ted Cruz, he argued with me. It wasn't personal, of course. Ted Cruz simply loves to argue.
Those two incidents told me a lot about Cruz. The first time was at an event in Florida in February 2012, months before he won the Texas GOP Senate nomination. I had never met him, but he wandered up to me and started complaining about my assessment of the Republican primary in the Lone Star State.
I told him to come to my office for an interview and to discuss the race, and he did a few weeks later.
I had no idea if the tea party favorite would win the GOP nomination, but I knew I wanted to learn about his views, his upbringing, his education and professional background. He wouldn't have any of that. He was there to prosecute his case, insisting he would defeat the early favorite in the race, Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst. And he did.
There is no self-doubt in the junior senator from Texas, who has an impressive résumé and has already entered the race for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination.
Cruz has an undergraduate degree from Princeton and a law degree from Harvard. He clerked for Chief Justice William Rehnquist, served in the President George W. Bush Justice Department and as solicitor general of Texas, all before the 2012 victory when he knocked off the state's sitting lieutenant governor in the Republican primary.
The Texan is one of the more combative and confrontational conservatives in the race for his party's nomination. That has made him a favorite on the right and a punching bag to liberals and many in the national media.
Unlike some other hopefuls in the contest, Cruz regards caution and compromise as a violation of principle. He has encouraged House Republicans to take on their more pragmatic legislative leaders, earning him a reputation as one of the leaders of the GOP's tea party wing.
Cruz's positions on hot-button issues — from immigration and Common Core to taxes, spending, abortion and national defense — resonate well with the Republican base, but it is his take-no-prisoners style and willingness to combat Democrats and the entire liberal establishment that make him such a favorite among those conservatives who are watching government get bigger.
The freshman senator is one of a handful of Republican presidential hopefuls — along with Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, former Texas Gov. Rick Perry, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum and Ben Carson — competing for evangelical and tea party conservatives in the Iowa caucuses. Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul is also a significant problem for Cruz, since Paul has considerable appeal among anti-establishment conservatives.
The importance of the many evangelical conservatives in Iowa, the first test in the nominating process, should not be underestimated.
The 2012 Iowa entrance poll conducted by Edison Research for multiple media clients showed 57 percent of caucus attendees called themselves "born again" or evangelical Christians, and just shy of two-thirds (64 percent) of respondents said they supported the tea party.
New Hampshire GOP primary voters (a group that includes a large number of independents) aren't nearly as religious or conservative as Iowans who will go to the caucuses, but South Carolina Republican primary voters are. In 2012, 65 percent of those who voted in the Palmetto State Republican primary self-identified as born again or evangelical Christians and 64 percent said they supported the tea party.
Obviously, if a single Republican hopeful can emerge as the consensus candidate of the evangelical and tea party faction, that candidate would be a factor well into the nominating process.
The recent national debate over religious freedom and gay rights is likely to elevate cultural issues for evangelical social conservatives, giving Cruz and his competitors another talking point to woo caucus-goers and boost evangelical participation.
But while Cruz is likely to engender passion among his supporters, he is regarded by many others in his party as unappealing and, even worse, unacceptable. To his critics, he is a self-promoting snake oil salesman, an unflattering comparison that suggests he is both untrustworthy and unscrupulous.
They find his language too inflammatory and confrontational, and many regard him as a disastrous general election nominee who would not only lose the presidential election but damage the party's prospects down-ballot.
The kind of Republicans who supported Mitt Romney and John McCain in the past will never embrace Cruz, of course. But it isn't clear that the Texas senator can attract much more than the hardcore tea party and movement conservative crowd, which, while an important segment of the GOP, isn't large enough to select the party's presidential nominee.
So while Cruz is an interesting candidate and certainly could play a role in the unfolding GOP race, he probably needs to broaden his message and change his style to win his party's nomination. And given what I know of the Texas senator, that's not happening.
