Q: Conflicting types in C, why? I'm trying to write a basic practice with C, working with Binary and Hex. I made a method to print the multiples of 2 (powers of 2) and a separate method to print out the Hex form of that multiple of 2.
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

const char one = 1;
const int bits = 31;

void    print2       ()
{
    unsigned int  u = (int)one;
    unsigned int j;

    printf("The powers of 2 are:\n");

    for(j=0;j<bits;j++)
    {
            unsigned int temp = u<<j;
            printf("%d\n",abs(temp));
            printhex(temp);
    }

    printf("\n\n");
}

void    printhex       (unsigned int   u)
{
    printf("0x%08X\n",u);
}

int main ()
{
    print2();
    return(EXIT_SUCCESS);
}

What I don't understand is why I get an error "conflicting types" from calling on the method "printHex". I specifically ask for an unsigned integer and when I call the method within the parameter (which I assume to be unsigned integer "temp"), the compiler does not accept.

A: You run into problems because you've not provided a prototype for printhex() before you use it.
Either put printhex() physically before print2() in the source file, or add a declaration:
extern void printhex(unsigned int u);

before print2() is defined.  (Don't declare printhex() inside print2(); even though it is syntactically legal, it is bad practice to do so.)

When the compiler runs across the call printhex(temp), it assumes (under C89 rules) that it is a function that returns an int with an indeterminate argument list (but not one which is formally a variable argument list — varargs functions like printf() must always have a prototype in scope).  When you subsequently define it as returning void, it gets upset and reports the conflicting type error.  Under C99 rules, you are supposed to have a prototype in scope before using a function.
I'd like to comment on your layout; it's a little unorthodox.
The function definitions don't need as many blanks in them (use less white space in the function definitions):
void    print2       ()
void    printhex       (unsigned int   u)

would be:
void print2(void)
void printhex(unsigned int u)

if I were writing them.  I write functions with the explicit (void) in the definition so it matches the prototype notation for the function. Actually, if I was writing them, they'd more likely be prefixed with static.  If the function I write is not going to be used outside the source file it is in, then I make it static automatically.  Further, if the function is defined as static before it is used, then I don't need a second declaration of the function.  If a function is not static, there should, in my book, be a header that declares the function, and that header should be used in both the file that defines the function and in the files that use the function.  This ensures consistency.
Also, you use abs(temp) which is slightly odd; it is a long-winded way of converting the unsigned int to a signed int, but you'd do better to write:
 printf("%u\n", temp);

Finally, I'd suggest you use more white space in the for loop:
for (j = 0; j < bits; j++)

No space before commas or semicolons; spaces around binary operators (but not unary operators, or very tightly binding operators such as subscripts or member (. or ->) operators).
Your output interleaves hex with decimal; you might find it better to use:
printf("%10u ", temp);

to put the decimal value right justified on the line, leaving the hex to appear after it on the same line.

A: You're trying to use (call) printhex before you declare it. Either forward declare it by saying void printhex (unsigned int u) or void printhex (unsigned int) or move the definition, to before print2.

Dead Man Down: New Trailer with Farrell and Noomi Rapace
January 21, 2013 Lucy Shaw	Leave a comment
Dead Man Down is a crime thriller starring Colin Farrell, Noomi Rapace, Dominic Cooper and Terrence Howard. The film marks the English-language debut of Danish filmmaker Niels Arden Oplev, who previously directed Rapace in the Swedish version of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. It's due to be released on the 8th of March. And we have the trailer…
The plot is as follows: Victor (Colin Farrell) is an enforcer to a New York City boss, Alphonse Hoyt (Terrence Howard), who was responsible for the deaths of his wife and daughter, an act that Victor seeks revenge for. Victor turns detective when his boss is
under threat from an unknown killer. During this he is seduced by Beatrice (Noomi Rapace), a woman from across the street who saw Victor murder someone, who blackmails him into helping her with her own search for vengeance. I'm telling you this as the trailer doesn't make it all that clear.
Noomi Rapace [via Rope of Silicon]
I don't know what to make of this trailer. Sure, it's got two good-looking actors as the leads (and they're reasonably good at acting, which is always a plus) as well as action and romance, and it may turn out that the actual film is quite thrilling, but it looks so, well, drab. I think it's aiming for arty. It just doesn't quite hit it. It's got something missing.
The most interesting thing about this trailer is that it features a cover of Shine On You Crazy Diamond by Kendra Morris. I'm not one hundred per cent sure who she is but she's done a fantastic version of the classic Pink Floyd track. Even so it still seems at odds with the trailer. I'm guessing it was to go with the arty vibe.
What did surprise me though was to find out that it was produced by WWE studios. I didn't even know they had a film production company! They seem to make mostly wrestling videos and films with wrestlers in acting roles. In Dead Man Down the wrestler in question is Wade Barrett, who has a bit part as Kilroy. He's also from Preston in Lancashire.

So that's Dead Man Down. A film I might see if it gets good reviews,but not solely on the strengths of this trailer.

Bikmukhametov DA, Anokhin VA, Vinogradova AN, Triner WR, McNutt LA. Bias in medicine: a survey of medical student attitudes towards HIV-positive and marginalized patients in Russia, 2010. J Int AIDS Soc. 2012 Sep 27; 15(2): 17372.


But much more often prices move, and then business editors send their reporters to find out why. Usually, a number of financial and industry professionals are asked: Why do you think prices went up/down? Then, the story is written and published.
These answers, of course, aren't really news. They are more like axioms.
1. Oil is purchased in dollars and the dollar has been rising which puts downward pressure on the oil price.
2. Demand is declining in Asia and Europe which is leaving excess oil on the market driving down the price.
3. Growing production from the United States is adding to world oil supplies and bringing the price down.
4. Libyan production has rebounded sharply following the country's recent period of unrest.
5. Saudi Arabia, the only OPEC producer with significant additional production capacity, is pumping more oil to punish other OPEC members with a low price, a move designed to restore discipline among members so that they will abide by future oil production quotas.
6. Saudi Arabia is pumping more oil to bring the price down to aid the United States in its diplomatic objectives, pressuring Russia, the world largest oil producer.
7. Saudi Arabia isn't trying to help the United States; the kingdom is actually trying to hurt the United States and restore the exporter's dominance in the oil market by crushing the U.S. tight oil boom which requires high prices to be profitable.
8. No, Saudi Arabia is really trying to help the United States in its fight against ISIS by showing its support for the United States and Europe through lowering oil prices and by making the price that ISIS gets for the oil products it now controls lower. The lower price is also harder on Iran which requires high prices to sustain its government revenues.
9. Saudi Arabia is simply trying to defend its market share in the face of waning demand by continuing to pump oil at current levels and offering discounts to customers.
Of course, the above answers aren't necessarily mutually exclusive. People and countries can have multiple objectives served by the same action. And, some or all of the above assessments could be wrong or at least of very little explanatory value.
Now, I'll weigh in. It seems entirely likely that the Saudis are being opportunistic. Like many oil exporters, they need high oil export revenues to pay for their government expenditures, much of which consists of food and fuel subsidies and social programs designed to keep the public docile. In the face of what looks like declining demand, rather than cut production to maintain prices as they have done in the past, they've decided to maintain their market share worldwide by cutting prices. This has the benefit of making much American tight oil production uneconomic, thus discouraging new drilling.
The Saudis know something very important about the U.S. tight oil drillers. Most of them are independents who are loaded with debt and don't have the financial wherewithal to weather a period of sustained prices below their cost of production. They will quickly reduce their drilling to only those prospects which seem as if they might be profitable at these new lower prices.
That will pave the way for sustained higher world prices later as growth in U.S. oil production comes to a halt. After the damage is done, the Saudis will try to bring the price back up.
It's always possible that the Saudi strategy will fail because what's really happening may be the first stages of a colossal economic and financial crash that will take the world economy into prolonged recession. That would bring the price of oil down to levels not seen in a decade where they might stay for a considerable period.
I'm not predicting that. And, in fact, none of what I've written may have any validity. Even though the Saudis have publicly stated that they are defending their market share, they may not be telling us exactly what their aims are. Saudi acquiescence to lower oil prices may simply be having consequences the Saudis don't intend, but can't avoid.
In truth, the whole issue of oil prices is too complex and too lacking in transparency to be discussed intelligently when it comes to short-term price movements. I am reminded of the tale of the blind men and the elephant of which the last stanza of a poetic version is quoted above.
But, as I say, price makes the story.


You can't put your finger on it, but somehow you've lost that lovely glow you've been taking for granted. When you look in the mirror, you look, well grayish. Dermatologist Dr. Lisa Kellett, owner of DLK on Avenue in Toronto, explains: "Young skin reflects light uniformly. As we age, skin turns over more slowly. The dead skin that sits on top doesn't bounce light anymore." Add sun damage, scarring and enlarged pore size due to a breakdown of collagen in the skin, and the result is a mottled complexion.
The doc's Rx: Intense Pulsed Light, used in conjunction with Levulan, a liquid that sensitizes your skin, making the light treatment more effective. Multiple wavelengths of light increase collagen production while reducing the appearance of brown spots, redness and spider veins, improving pore size and overall texture. Three to five sessions are required, lasting 20-30 minutes each. The downside? At $450 and up per session, it's a tad pricey. And because your skin will be extra-sensitive to UVA and UVB rays, you'll need to stay out of the sun for 48 hours.
DIY essentials: Don't be afraid to use an exfoliating cleanser twice a day at home to slough away the dead skin that dulls your skin's surface. Find a gel-based formulation that doesn't foam (foamers dry out your skin) such as Clear Start Cleanser, (Now Clear Exfoliating Gel Cleanser). Want serious exfoliation? Try Physicians Formula Mineral MicroDermabrasion System, $40 – once a week will do.
News flash: Target dull skin from the inside with O3mega + Glow supplements, $27/60 softgels. Joey Shulman, author of The Natural Makeover Diet: A 4-Step Program to Looking and Feeling Your Best from the Inside Out, says that ingredients such as essential fatty acids, lycopene and vitamin C reduce fine lines and wrinkles and improve the overall look and feel of your skin.

Can Any Changes Be Called Revolution
Sanjay Lahiri Author Intervie
Comrade Netai and the Chronology of His UG Days is a personal and emotional story of Naxalite movement in the 90's. Why was this an important book for you to write?
There are multiple reasons behind writing this book. First point is obviously, I had this experience which I wanted to share with others. Second- To my knowledge perhaps this phase of Naxalite movement (Now Maoist) has not been captured by any novelist since whenever Indian literature refers Naxalite movement they refer seventies and moreover tries to represent in black and white; quite contrary to the reality. Third- I wanted to raise the question – how come that all socialist revolution ended up of being suppliers of cheap labour and eventually strengthening the philosophy which they supposed to overthrow. Can any changes be called revolution. I took ten years to complete this novel.
Netai is an interesting character that I enjoyed reading about. What was the inspiration for his character and development through the story?
Thank you. Inspiration was my experience. The dedicated marginal people (although may not be quite clear about the philosophy) and squalor and deprived life I witnessed.
This book gives a unique look at the considerations given to decisions, elections, and organization of a revolution. Were you able to provide any personal experiences to this story?
Yes, apart from this book I am having many experiences which I think need another book to share. However, I would like to share one of the most painful experiences i gathered and which still haunts me. There is small place name Manoharpur in Singbhum district (now in Jharkhand but then it was in Bihar. i am talking about 1990) adjoining to Orissa and known for mines of iron ore mostly dominated by a big house. From Manoharpur about 30 to 40 km away there was village named Tonto. There was no proper communication from Manoharpur to tonto. Only one bus plying in morning and evening. otherwise there was commercial lorries which carried people too. Apart from that there was only one goods train carrying iron ore.Otherwise those places were not accessible. I was surveying those ares on behalf of my organization and along with one of my colleagues we reached to that village-Tonto. The first hut we arrived found the door was ajar. I peeped through and found some people stood moaning surrounded a person lying on a sagged charpoy. One of them saw us and rushed to us with a gesture of help. We were not able to communicate as we did not know their language neither they. The figure of the person, lying on charpoy, sent shivers down my spine. The skeletal structure was lying spreading its arms across. A white thin cloth was wrapped around waist. The breast squeezed to such an extent as if stuck to bare protruding ribs and i took some time to realise it was- she. Her slimy eyeballs were moving slowly inside the socket. Her tongue was intermittently flicking out from her wizened mouth; as if trying to taste life. They took me as a medical practitioner and requested me to save her. No they were wrong i was not a medical practitioner however, usually, I would carry some basic medicine but I knew that would not work. Literally we escaped from the spot just providing them some medicines. That moment and that figure still haunts me.
My next book is- A Joker and A Witch. When it will be available – only time can say.

In the nineties, he joined to a splinter group of Naxalite to be associated with the ongoing struggle for the emancipation of the working class and was rechristened as Netai.
However, in subsequent years, he was dismayed seeing the peer rivalry, manipulation to grab power in the organization. Walking with the arms squad, Netai realized that, to the party, the expansion of arms struggle was the sole yardstick of revolution.
Netai's home turned into a permanent shelter of comrades and gradually thrown into disarray with aimless siblings, cataract ridden mother and a lonesome father, still a sole bread earner despite being retired from a government job.

Comrade Netai and the Chronology of His UG Days
Activism is high on Netai's list of priorities, or at least he thinks as much. As a member of the working class and a young man who is loyal and determined, Netai finds himself deep in the throes of the Naxalite during the decades of the eighties and nineties. While his involvement in the ever-increasing political movement increases, so does the tension within his parents' household. His mother, afflicted with cataracts, struggles day in and day out while his hard-working father faces his own inner turmoil at being asked by his son to host the members of the resistance. Nowhere is the battle for emancipation so strongly felt as in Netai's own household.
Sanjay Lahiri's Comrade Netai and the Chronology of His UG Days traces Netai's battle with his own participation in the resistance. As he goes about work in the mines, he is privy to a firsthand look at the suffering of the men and women employed there, the reality of back-breaking work, and the hardships of the working class. Lahiri paints painfully clear pictures of the desperation of the mine workers' struggles in day-to-day living. The bulk of Lahiri's effectiveness is nestled neatly in his main character's own horror at the atrocities he witnesses. The author leaves nothing to the imagination as he describes the most shocking scenes of life as a mine worker. When Netai finds himself in awe of the scenes he witnesses, the reader is pulled along as an unwilling participant. Lahiri's writing is vivid and exceptionally effective.
Details are Lahiri's strong suit. On every level and in every way, Comrade Netai and the Chronology of His UG Days exists as a portrait of life in activism. A work of political fiction, Lahiri's book provides a unique peek into the intense consideration given to decisions, elections, and organization of a revolution. Readers see the true rigors of rallying around a cause.
For me, nowhere was Netai's struggle as clear as when it is pointed out to him that he has not had a change of underclothes and has exposed himself to infestation by chillars, insects growing in hay. Netai's lack of hygiene is but one of the signs of the way in which his dedication to the cause is wreaking havoc on his psyche.
Lahiri's key character, Netai, demonstrates an endearing eagerness despite the hardships he endures. He is an inspiring character filled with bright-eyed optimism and a strong desire to learn the ins and outs of the political processes involved in making change possible. As he is offered the opportunity to represent the state, his enthusiasm is positively contagious.
Comrade Netai features well-drawn characters and a relatable main character who wears his heart on his sleeve and exhibits humanitarianism along with a certain level of blind innocence. The subplot surrounding Netai's parents is engaging and powerful. Comrade Netai is a must-read for any fan of political fiction and activists across causes and continents. Lahiri unites readers in a common bond–justice.

Stem cells may speed up screening of drugs for rare cancers
by Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine
Researchers at the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center say they have developed a system that uses transformed human stem cells to speed up screening of existing drugs that might work against rare brain and other cancers.
A report on their proof-of-concept work, published in the Aug. 1 issue of Clinical Cancer Research, describes experiments that transform human stem cells into an aggressive and rare form of pediatric brain cancer called medulloblastoma. Those cancer cells' genetic profiles can then be rapidly compared with hundreds of common, lab-grown human cancer cells already tested against existing drugs.
By creating a cell model of medulloblastoma from human cells rather than working with mouse cells, the researchers say they can be more confident that patients' response to the drugs identified in the screenings may be more comparable to humans, according to Eric Raabe, M.D., Ph.D., an assistant professor of oncology at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and a member of the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center.
Standard treatment for pediatric medulloblastoma, which strikes 500 children per year in the United States, combines radiation and chemotherapy, but a subtype known as Group 3—which makes up 28 percent of the cases—tends to cause the most relapses in patients, and the survival rate is only 30 to 40 percent, says Raabe. "Overall, 70 to 80 percent of medulloblastoma patients treated with conventional radiation and drug therapy survive and are considered cured," he adds, "but many patients with the Group 3 subtype don't fare as well."
In recent years, one strategy scientists use to find new or better treatments is to look to databases of existing drugs that have been matched to the genetic profiles of lab-grown cells for common cancers. However, Raabe says, rare cancers and their subtypes are not well-represented in such databases, and creating such lab-grown cell lines directly from patients' tumors is difficult. Moreover, he adds, such tumor-derived cells sometimes acquire genetic changes that can vary from the original tumor.
For the study, the scientists used lentiviruses as a transport system to insert cancer-related genes common to Group 3 medulloblastomas in human neural stem cells. As the stem cells replicate, the cancer-linked genes transform the stem cells into cancer cells. The tumors then grown from these transformed cell lines "compare very well biologically to actual human medulloblastoma, and their gene expression profile fits with that of human tumor cells," Raabe notes.
Raabe and his colleagues then used RNA sampled from the new tumors to create a "signature" of gene expression that they could compare to similar signatures in three large databases of cell lines that have been screened and matched with existing drugs. "We wanted to find whether the cells we created matched any of these existing signatures," Raabe explains, "because if they did, then we would have some idea of what kinds of drugs are more or most likely to kill these cells. We didn't have to do the laborious screening to test 100,000 compounds against our own cells."
Using this method, the scientists zeroed in on a group of compounds called CDK inhibitors that may be promising treatments for Group3 medulloblastoma, Raabe says.
One of those drugs, palbociclib, is already approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for treating a type of advanced breast cancer, Raabe says. When he and his colleagues added palbociclib to their transformed cell lines, they found that the drug decreased cell line growth by more than 50 percent and more than tripled cell death compared to untreated cells. The drug also extended the survival of mice implanted with tumors grown from established Group 3 human medulloblastoma cell lines by nearly 50 percent, from 25 to 37 days.
Raabe says that palbociclib and other such drugs, called cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors, are being tested in phase I clinical trials in children with various brain tumors. "There is interest in testing these agents in more advanced studies specifically for recurrent medulloblastoma, potentially in combination with other new agents," he says.
Although it took several years to develop this model of Group 3 medulloblastoma and show its similarity to primary tumors, Raabe says, "This system may be one way to find drugs for rare cancers for which there are only a few human cell lines or to model very rare subtypes of adult and pediatric cancers."

Looking for the best packable daypack to carry your gear on daily adventures while traveling?
Having a lightweight, packable daypack is a must have for any seasoned traveler.
These small daypacks can easily be folded and stowed away in your larger bag, but they will come in handy when you head off on daily travel adventures.
For many travel activities and outdoor activities like hiking, climbing, etc., having a quality daypack to carry your daily gear is super valuable.
There are hundreds of different types of daypacks available, but depending on your needs and style of travel one will fit your needs better than another.
I'll explain to you what to look for in a daypack and which one suits you the best.
There are certain features you should look for while buying a packable daypack. I've compiled a list of important features and things to look for when shopping for a durable, lightweight foldable daypack.
Why Are Packable Daypacks Ideal for Travel?
I've chosen some of what I think are the best packable daypacks on the market that are ready to handle any global travel adventure. Below you'll find short reviews for each backpack and why it stands out.
I'll only recommend products that I have personally used or would purchase for myself, and trust me I've tried quite a few since as a blogger I always travel with my laptop in hand during my global adventures.
I've selected what I think are some of the best daypacks below. You can consider them when looking to buy one.
This daypack has a sleek and simple design. It is very lightweight and compact. The fabric is siliconized Cordura nylon, which is tough and strong, plus it has a weather resistant coating.
The shoulder straps have bar-tack reinforcements, which add strength to those stress points and allow you to carry more weight.
These also help this packable daypack hold its shape, with less bunching in the straps. And it is super easy to carry, using the attached stuff sack that rolls the pack small enough to fit into almost any pocket.
However, this Sea to Summit backpack falls into the simple, lightweight category. There is just one main compartment, with no side pockets for water bottles, though there is a daisy chain at the bottom for hooking on smaller gear or a bike light.
And according to users, even with the reinforcements, the straps are a little thin for heavy duty use.
The Gonex ultralight packable daypack has a 30L capacity, so you have room for pretty much anything you need for any type of day trip.
But as well as the large main compartment, there are a couple of side pockets to carry water bottles, keys, or even an umbrella if the weather turns damp. There is even an inner pocket for smaller items, which also doubles as the pack-in pocket when it's time to put away your daypack.
This Gonex packable backpack is made of nylon, which is soft against your skin but strong enough to resist some light wear-and-tear. It is also water-repellent, though it won't withstand any downpours.
The straps are made of breathable mesh for comfort on warm days. There are bar-tack reinforcements in over 14 high-stress areas, making this one of the best packable daypack models in terms of durability.
If you're looking for a small hiking backpack, this Osprey packable daypack may be the right choice. It is extremely lightweight, at just over 3.2 ounces.
The material is 40D nylon ripstop, which can handle a bit of rough use, as long as you aren't sliding over rocks or getting snagged on trees at every turn.
It only has an 18L capacity, so you may not have enough room for an overnight stay, but it has space for a change of clothes and a few other essentials if needed.
Along with the main compartment, there is a slash pocket on top of the bag. There is stretch mesh pocket on one side, as well, but it isn't very tight, so you may lose your water or other gear if you bend over.
When you're done with the bag, there is a built-in storage pocket that lets you fold up the pack and store it away in your luggage, pocket, or anywhere else convenient.
Though it's not the lightest model on our list, the 20L New Outlander packable backpack is one of the cheapest. This makes it one of the best packable daypack brands for those on a budget.
But just because it is cheap on the wallet doesn't mean it's going to fall apart the first time you use it. It is made of durable nylon material that is both rip- and water-resistant. The stress points all use bar-tack reinforcements to increase strength.
The straps are long but adjustable for those who don't need as much room. They are made of breathable mesh but have some sponge padding in there as well for extra comfort on those long walks.
And there is a top grab handle, also reinforced, to make it easier to transfer the bag from one spot to another. A carabiner is also included for attaching keys or other items to your backpack.
For storage, there is a large main area, two front pockets for small items, and an internal security pocket which can be used to pack your bag when it isn't being used.
There are also two mesh side pockets, one of which has a security cord to hold your water bottle in place.
As well as making a decent daypack for their customers, Eagle Creek has added a bit of style to their product. It comes in three great colors, with cool detailing and the Eagle Creek logo embossed on the front.
But cool-looking daypacks have to be functional as well. The Eagle Creek packable backpack takes this into account, with its durable nylon material, adjustable and breathable mesh shoulder straps, and a front pocket that doubles as a stuff sack which packs this bag small enough to fit almost anywhere.
The key fob on the front pocket can also be used to attach your bag to your other luggage for easy carrying.
Though it only has a 13 L capacity, this bag has enough room for the essentials. And it is securable as well.
There are tabs on the dual main zippers, which can be attached to the loop above to repel thieves. Those zippers are also lockable for a bit of extra security. And a water bottle pocket on the side keeps you hydrated throughout your trip.
Once called the Daylite 16, the Matador DL16 is one of the best packable daypack models around.
This is mainly due to the fact that it is made of 30D Cordura material, which is not only puncture-resistant but is also completely waterproof.
The internal seams are all fully sealed and the zippers are water-resistant, both of which reduce leaks for drier gear.
With a main compartment that has a 16 L capacity, a front zippered pocket, and a couple of side mesh pockets, you should have all the room you need for those must-have items during a hike or a day trip around the city.
The shoulder straps are adjustable to give you the right fit, no matter what size you are, plus are breathable to reduce sweating, even on the warmest days.
When it is time to store your daypack, just fold it up into the attached storage bag and tuck it away until you need it again.
This REI packable daypack may not be the lightest pack in our group, or the fanciest, but it has a decent price and a few handy features you may not find on other models.
The first is that the padding on the back panel is removable, giving you a comfy pad to sit on if you get tired during your hike.
As well as the stretchable padded mesh shoulder straps, there is also a sternum strap and a hipbelt. Both of these can be detached if you don't need them. And the sternum buckle is also a safety whistle, which will come in extra handy during an emergency.
Though there is no hydration reservoir included, the pack is designed to be compatible with one, thanks to the internal sleeve and an exit port for a drinking hose.
There is also a daisy chain on the front of the bag which can be used to tote an ice axe, keys, or other handy items.
The main compartment uses a drawstring closure for easy access. There is also a small zippered pocket on the front of the bag for those items you want kept close at hand.
With so many collapsible daypack brands out there, it's no wonder Amazon decided to make their own. Their lightweight model is a nylon packable backpack, which is quite strong, resisting rips even with regular use.
There is bar-tack reinforcements on all the stress points, to help increase the bag's durability, even when you have it filled to capacity.
The straps are thin mesh, which is breathable to help reduce sweating and discomfort. They are also adjustable, so you get the proper fit for the size of your body.
There isn't a lot of structural support in the bag, though. This means that after you pack it, it will take the shape of whatever you put inside it, so pack it carefully so it fits nicely on your back.
There is a lot of storage space, with one large main area for big items, plus a small inner pocket, a front pocket, and a couple of mesh side pockets for water bottles or other handy items. The inner pocket also doubles as a stuff sack when you're done with the bag.
As well as the super light weight of this bag, it also has a great low price and comes in 6 colors. There is also a larger 35 L model available if you need the best packable daypack to hold a bit more gear.
The Arc'teryx Index 15 was designed for backpackers and travellers who need something lightweight but durable for all the gear they need during a day trip.
It is made of a combination of nylon ripstop and polyester, giving it strength with a bit of flexibility.
There are ultra-light, adjustable shoulder straps that fit comfortably. There are also top and bottom grab handles for loading your bag in your vehicle at the end of a long day on the trail.
Despite its small 15 L capacity, this lightweight packable backpack has more than enough room for everything you need. There is a large main area, with a large inner slip pocket that can hold a hydration bladder for hikes, or a tablet for more modern trips.
There is also an inner security pocket for your valuables, which also doubles as a stuff sack when you're trip is over.
On the outside is a front zippered pocket, which includes a key clip for extra convenience. Though there are no side pockets, there are 8 loops on this bag, which can be used to attach water bottles or strap other larger items you may need for your trip.
This packable travel bag has a lot of great features and comes in 6 colors, but it also has a pretty high price tag, so it may not be the best packable daypack for those on a budget.
If you want a cheap packable daypack that looks as stylish as the higher-end brands, the Zomake Ultra Lightweight bag is a great choice.
It is made of durable nylon material, which is tear-resistant and has a waterproof coating to keep your gear dry. The zipper is SBS Metal, which resists abrasions for longer use.
Along with the large main compartment, there is an inner pocket, an outer front pocket, and two mesh side pockets for smaller gear you want quick access to, like cameras or water bottles.
But despite all this room, this handy small backpack for travel can be folded down to a compact size for easy storage in a suitcase or pocket.
The straps are lightweight, adjustable, and breathable for added comfort. And to increase the bag's strength, there are bar-tack reinforcements on over 31 different areas, so your bag won't fall apart after only a few uses.
Best of all, there is a great low price, plus a wide variety of colors to pick from, so everyone in the family will get the best packable daypack to meet their personal style.
With 42 different colors to choose from, the Cotopaxi Luzon 18L model may be the best packable daypack for those picky members of the group who need everything to match.
But it also has a variety of great features that make it a great choice for everyone else as well.
The material is re-purposed ripstop nylon which is as light as it is strong. There are also lightweight mesh shoulder straps to keep you cool during your travels, plus are adjustable for the right fit.
A sternum strap and a hip belt keep this stuffable daypack secure and supported for less shifting.
Inside the large main compartment is a lined sleeve that fits a hydration bladder, though this accessory isn't included. If need be, you could slip a tablet in there instead for those trips where so much water isn't needed.
A drawstring closure on this main area makes it easy to get in and out of the bag. For the smaller items you want quick access to, there is also a zippered front pocket.
Though it only comes in black, this handy folding backpack for travel may still be the best packable daypack for your next adventure.
It is made of durable 30D ripstop nylon, with air mesh in the back panel and the adjustable straps. This makes the pack strong as well as breathable on those hot days running errands or walking the trail.
There is a sternum strap with durable Duraflex buckles to keep it tight to your chest, but they are also removable for those days when you don't need as much support.
The Tortuga packable daypack has 19 L of storage space in the main compartment, with extra room in the zippered front pocket for your smaller items.
There are also two mesh pockets on the sides of the bag for water bottles or other items you want easy access to.
As well as being a great stuffable backpack for trips close to home, this bag is the perfect size to fit under a seat on almost any airline, so it can replace your carry on bag if needed.
The best packable daypack for travel needs an abundance of storage space, without weighing you down too much.
This one from Eddie Bauer is only 11 ounces empty, so you can tuck it into a pocket or squeeze it into your luggage until you need it without even noticing the extra weight.
But when you do need to pack it, you can stuff up to 20 L worth of gear inside in the main compartment. There is a Velcro back panel pocket inside the bag as well, for extra organization.
On the outside of the bag, there are two zippered front pockets, plus a couple side pockets with elasticized tops to keep water bottles and other smaller gear secure. And if you need a bit of extra gear, there are some lashing loops on the front for attaching whatever you need.
The material is 100% polyester, with a StormRepel water-resistant finish to keep your gear safe and dry in damp weather.
The backpack straps are lightly padded for extra comfort, plus adjustable to give you the perfect fit, no matter what size you are. And there are 8 stylish colors to choose from for those who like to match all their gear.
The Hikpro packable backpack is one of the more durable travel daypacks available. It is extremely lightweight at only 6.5 ounces. But the nylon material is tear-resistant and repels water, for a stronger bag.
The zipper is also SBS metal, which resists abrasions, so you're zipper won't fall apart at the slightest scrape. Bar-tack reinforcements are used in the most high-stress areas.
The straps are wide, distributing the weight of the bag more evenly. They are also breathable to keep you cool on those warm days on the trail. They can be adjusted as needed to give you the right fit.
To hold your gear, there is a large main compartment, with a smaller zippered pocket inside to keep your little items from getting lost among your larger belongings.
This inner pocket also doubles as a stuff sack for the backpack itself. There is also a zippered pocket on the outside, plus a mesh pocket on each side for water, cameras, phones, or anything else you want easy access to.
At 7.7 ounces, this daypack is a bit heavier than some of the other bags on our list. But its versatility may make it worth the extra weight since it can be used for hiking, camping, climbing, school, or running errands.
It is made of high-quality nylon material, which is both water- and tear-resistant, so it will withstand a bit of rough use out in the wild.
The adjustable straps are also quite well-made, with padding and breathability to increase the comfort.
There is a great deal of storage space as well. The large main area holds the largest items you need, plus there is a small inner pocket for those little items that need a bit of extra security, like money or small electronics.
There is also a zippered pocket on the front and two mesh pockets on the sides for the rest of your belongings.
Because of its high strength and capacity, the fact that it folds down to about 6 inches in size, and its great low price, this may be one of the best packable daypacks to choose for almost any type of trip.
Of course, you can use these types of foldable bags for almost anything you do.
They are quite versatile, with a bit of style thrown in so you will love carrying them anywhere. And they can handle a bit of rough handling, so you can use them almost daily with little wear-and-tear to show for it.
The main reason the best packable daypack is the right choice for travel is due to their size. I'm not referring to their packed size, either, though many of them have high capacities to carry anything you need.
It's the folding size that matters for travel. These handy lightweight backpacks can be folded or rolled into an extremely small package, sometimes smaller than a sandwich.
This makes it easy to tuck these little packages into your other luggage, a bigger backpack, a glovebox, or even a coat pocket.
Having a packable backpack won't weigh you down or force you to leave other essential items behind.
What they will do is give you an extra bag to carry any souvenirs home that won't fit into your regular luggage, or a pack to carry when you decide to go on a spur-of-the-moment hike or climb.
Over the past few years, manufacturers were quick to realize there was a huge demand for functional packable backpacks. This means that you'll find lightweight, packable daypacks in a wide range of styles, sizes, and with a variety of features.
Capacity matters the most. More capacity means you can carry more stuff. But the more you pack, the more it will increase the weight. For normal use, a 25 Liter volume is considered enough room to carry most of your stuff.
Whereas if you plan to buy a daypack for some specific use, you may have to look for other sizes. For multi-day travelling, you may need sizes bigger than 30 L, while for light trekking a small 20 L would do good.
If you're like me, you never want to carry extra weight. Therefore, it is better to buy a daypack which meets your requirements and is the lightest. Too many features can add extra weight to your daypack. These extras also mean a much bigger bag, both packed and folded down.
Of course, you don't want to skimp on the features you need. Otherwise, you may be sacrificing too much, forcing you to leave gear behind just to save a few ounces.
Comfort and fit are some of the most important features to ensure you have the best packable backpack. Some things to look for are breathable areas in the backpanel and the straps. This will keep you cool as the temperature rises.
Padding is also a must in these areas, so the backpack rests comfortably rather than digging in. Padding on the back also keeps the gear in the bag from pushing right up against your back.
Adjustable straps ensure the bag is sitting properly on your shoulders. Sternum and waist straps also help give you some extra support, though this may not be needed if your bag isn't very full.
Daypacks are usually top loaders or panel loaders. Top loaders have a single compartment and an access point at the top, while panel loaders can have multiple compartments with a U-shaped zipper for opening. Top loaders are suitable for quick stuffing of goods while panel loaders can keep your stuff organized and are more versatile in use.
Some side compartments are added to daypacks to store additional stuff like phones, maps and dedicated water carrying compartments. These can be very handy.
If you carry a lot of weight, then additional straps can evenly divide the weight across your body and give you more comfort.
Different types of materials are used in daypacks. A good daypack material must be light and tough. Most of the daypacks on our list use either nylon or polyester. These fabrics are quite strong, without adding too much to the weight of your bag.
Ripstop fabric adds a bit more strength. Ripstop is a bunch of thicker threads sown into the other material. If you happen to get a tear in your bag, the ripstop prevents it from spreading. The ripstop also helps to repel water.
As well as the durable materials, the best packable daypack will have a few other things to look for in terms of construction.
First, the seams deserve a look. They should be tightly stitched so that when you tug on the material, you can barely see them. Internal seams should be covered by a bit of fabric to keep any rubbing against your gear to a minimum.
There should be bar-tacked stitching at all of the stress points on the bag, especially around the bottom and the straps. These areas carry the heaviest loads, so the stitching needs some reinforcement to withstand the pressure. Zippers should be strong, resisting abrasions, but easy to use.
You never know when the weather is going to turn damp, so you're daypack needs to be able to withstand a bit of water. Another option is to get a packable backpack rain cover, which will give you ultimate protection.
For this, most manufacturers use either a water-resistant or waterproof coating on their bags. These coatings repel light rain, though most of them won't be able to withstand heavy downpours.
As well as the coating, you should also make sure the zippers have some type of water resistance as well. Otherwise, you'll be dealing with some leaking, which means wet gear.
The best packable daypack will have taken all this into account, but it's best to be sure before you buy.
When it comes to the best packable daypack, certain styles are better for some people than they are for others.
Do you prefer a simple bag, with clean lines and a sleek look? Or do you prefer lots of pockets and loops to ensure you have every bit of space possible for all your gear?
There is also the color of the day backpacks to consider. Many people prefer a discreet, darker color like black, grey, or navy blue.
But there are also bright colors, two-tone designs, and cool logos to pick from. No matter what you're style, there is a great daypack for travel to meet it.
Because of the simplicity of the design most daypacks favor, they usually don't cost very much. Most of the daypacks on our list cost $40.00 or less, with a few of them under $20.00. Of course, the less the bag costs, the fewer features you may see on their list.
This could mean fewer pockets, no water-resistance, or cheaper materials in the body or the straps. So, it may be best to spend a bit more to ensure the highest quality possible, especially since even the more expensive bags are still pretty budget-friendly.
Whether you're just cruising a new city or hiking to the top of a peak in the wilderness, having the best packable daypack can be an incredibly useful piece of travel gear.
For instance, if you're traveling on a budget, you'll need a cheaper daypack to add to your gear list. The Leaper Outdoor Nylon Ultra-Light 20 L Folding Backpack is the most budget friendly model on our list, plus it still has plenty of space and is made well enough to last for quite a while.
If you think you need a bit of extra protection against moisture, the Matador Packable Backpack Daypack may be the right choice. It has great waterproofing on the material, plus has fully sealed internal seams and a water-resistant zipper.
For those who love great features, the REI Co-op Flash 18 Pack may be the best packable daypack. It comes with that handy removable back padding that doubles as a seat, the sternum and waist straps for extra support, plus the safety whistle in the sternum buckle for emergencies.
Our top pick for high quality construction and ultra-lightweight is the Osprey Ultralight Stuff Pack. It's sleek and packs down small enough to stow away anywhere you need. Plus it has a lifetime warranty and a great company that stands behind it.
No matter which one you choose, the bottom line is that these lightweight and packable daypacks are just that…packable. They will fit easily into your larger backpack or luggage and barely take up any extra room, but they are there when you need them!

Ravens take division lead with victory over Cincinnati
Baltimore edges Bengals in 19-12 win
Justin Tucker kicked four field goals and Baltimore shut down the Cincinnati Bengals' depleted offense Sunday in a 19-14 victory that thrust the Ravens into a first-place tie in the AFC North. Joe Flacco threw for 234 yards and a touchdown to help Baltimore (6-5) snap a five-game losing streak against the Bengals (3-7-1), whose playoff hopes took another serious blow. The victory was not assured until Cincinnati quarterback Andy Dalton fumbled when sacked by Elvis Dumervil, and defensive end Lawrence Guy recovered at the Baltimore 21 with 1:05 left and the Ravens up 19-12. Cincinnati got a safety on the final play when Baltimore punter Sam Koch ran out of the end zone. Dalton went 26 for 48 for 283 yards. He fumbled three times, losing two. At this point, the Bengals will need a sensational finish to extend their run of consecutive playoff appearances to six. Cincinnati has won only one of seven games since Sept. 29. Tucker connected from 52, 57 and 54 yards to stake the Ravens to a 16-3 halftime lead. He added a 36-yard field goal to make it 19-9 with 12:16 remaining. Tucker has made 34 field goals in a row, including 27 this season, and has connected on all 15 conversion tries. Baltimore's second-ranked defense made sure that one touchdown and Tucker's kicks were enough to win. Terrell Suggs had two sacks and forced two fumbles, and the Bengals gained only 64 yards on the ground. Baltimore had something to do with it, but Cincinnati was playing without running back Giovani Bernard and wide receiver A.J. Green , both of whom were injured last week in a loss to Buffalo. Bernard was lost for the season with a torn ACL and Green sustained a hamstring injury that could sideline him for several weeks. The Ravens led 16-3 in the third quarter before Dalton directed an 86-yard drive that ended with a 3-yard touchdown pass to tight end Tyler Eifert. The conversion by Mike Nugent sailed wide right - the third straight extra point he missed over a two-game span. He is 19 for 23 on conversions this season. It was 16-9 entering the final 15 minutes. That did not bode well for a Bengals team that was averaging four points in the fourth quarter. The Ravens, meanwhile, scored their lone touchdown on the first drive of the game. After Flacco threw a 14-yard scoring pass to Breshad Perriman, Tucker added a field goal. The Bengals answered with a field goal and used an interception by Rey Maualuga to gain possession at the Baltimore 19. But Dalton was surprised by a third-down snap and Dumervil recovered to end the threat. Dumervil (foot) was playing in only his third game of the season.

Ravens under consideration to play game in London in 2017


On March 29, shareholder Jeff Hsi was honored by the Rutgers Law School Asian Pacific American Law Students Association (APALSA) at the annual Mela Dinner. Mela, meaning "gathering" in Sanskrit, is a school-wide event that welcomes new and returning students to the Rutgers Law community and commemorates Asian-Pacific American achievements in the legal field.
The Rutgers Law APALSA was established in 1976 and is dedicated to the admission and retention of Asian Pacific American law students, particularly those who will go on to help the legally underserved Asian Pacific American community. Members work to foster awareness of legal and social issues that affect this community and strive to build relationships with other groups and students interested in law and justice.
In honoring Jeff, a Rutgers Law alum, Rutgers Law APALSA Treasurer Michael Kim said, "Characterizing Dr. Hsi as a scientist, inventor, entrepreneur and counselor only begins to describe the surface of his work. In addition to his scientific and legal careers, Hsi volunteers, including promoting the legal interests of Asian Americans through voting rights work and his current directorship in Asian Americans Advancing Justice - AAJC (Asian American Justice Center), where he chairs the Policy and Programs Committee, and his past leadership positions in the National Asian Pacific American Bar Association (NAPABA) and the Asian American Lawyers Association of Massachusetts (AALAM). His service to the Rutgers Law community is deeply appreciated and his career is an inspiration to current students."

Q: What does Desktop View / View Desktop Site actually do? Does anyone know how selecting the Desktop View option in a mobile browser affects CSS media queries and Javascript?
I'm making a site which is meant to be for mobile users only. When I select "Desktop View" when using the stock Android browser, it breaks the site. I want to effectively ignore the desktop view setting.
Thanks

A: I believe this option only change the user-agent.

A: The 'Desktop View' in the stock android browser simply changes the user-agent (UA) string sent to the server. Without the option selected a typical UA string would look similar to the following:

Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android {OS Version}; en-gb; {Device Model Information}) AppleWebKit/534.30 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Mobile Safari/534.30

With the 'Desktop View' option enabled this changes to something similar to:

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/534.24 (KHTML, like Gecko)
  Chrome/11.0.696.34 Safari/534.24

As you can see the first example explicitly includes the word Mobile, it also informs us that it is an Android operating system. The second example mimics the user-agent string of a 'full-browser' critically by omitting the word Mobile.
More importantly, to specifically answer the original question in two parts;
How does this option affect CSS media queries?
It doesn't. CSS media queries themselves are unaffected by the UA string sent to the server. Typically when we talk about media queries we're making reference to the screen size / resolution / orientation of the device, all of which are unaffected by the 'Desktop View' option. The CSS behavior of the site would only be altered if the server were to provide a different response based on the UA string provided.
How does this option affect javascript?
This affects javascript if you (or a third party library you use) make use of the Navigator object to modify behavior based on the browser version.

A: It doesn't necessarily change the user agent, however it will set a session variable for the website for that user, so if they make a request it will skip the user agent check and simply return the desktop website.
Example Code:
<?php
//See if the browser is a mobile browser
// If it's mobile browser see if the user prefers desktop version
// IF the user does not the foward to mobile website.

$browser = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];

if(preg_match('/iPhone/i',$browser)) { $iphone = "true"; }
if(preg_match('/Android/i',$browser)) { $android = "true"; }

if($iphone == true || $android == true) {

    session_start();
    if($_SESSION['version'] != "desktop") {

        header("location: http://tuts.pinehead.tv/jqmobile/mobile.php");

    }

Sorry I haven't posted in a few days, just got really really busy…AND The Sims 3 came out, which I'm going right back to playing the second I'm done with this post, lol. Anywho, I'm thinking the Hottie o' the Day will now become the Hottie o' the Week only b/c it's getting increasingly harder to find hotties. However, before I make any drastic changes, I had to post a new hottie…Ryan Carnes.

Posted: May 29, 2009 in Chris Evans, Fantastic Four, Hottie o' the day, Marvel Comics
Anyone who knows me, knows that Chris Evans is one of my fave actors on the planet. Not only have I loved every single movie I've seen him in (such as "Not Another Teen Movie", "Cellular", and both "Fantastic Four" movies), but I just think he is one of the hottest guys out there. I mean this guy is SERIOUSLY sexy and I don't know why I haven't made him a Hottie o' the Day yet. In fact, just because I neglected this hottie, he's going to be the Hottie o' the Weekend!!! Enjoy!!!!

Chris Evans - such a hottie!!!!
Hottie o' the Day: David Chokachi
Posted: May 28, 2009 in Baywatch, David Chokachi, Hottie o' the day, Jeremy Jackson, Michael Bergin
OK, so this hunk is technically the hottie from yesterday and today. David Chokachi is just perfection like his Baywatch colleage, Michael Bergin. And since the two played best friends on Baywatch, I thought it only fitting to have them as back to back Hotties o' the Day. David Chokachi went on to star on the TV shows "Witchblade", and the teen soap "Beyond the Break". Most recently he starred as himself in the VH1 reality series, "Confessions of a Teen Idol" (along with fellow Baywatch star, Jeremy Jackson). He may feel that his career is washed up, but he'll always be a hottie to me! Enjoy!
David Chokachi
Hottie o' the Day: Michael Bergin
Posted: May 26, 2009 in Baywatch, David Charvet, David Chokachi, Hottie o' the day, Jeremy Jackson, Mark Wahlberg, Michael Bergin
Today's Hottie o' the Day is none other than former Baywatch star and Calvin Klein model, Michael Bergin. Michael is known in the model world for having replaced Marky Mark Wahlberg in the Calvin Klein underwear campaigns. Michael hasn't done too much recently, other than produce his own underwear line and guest star in a few episodes of the now defunct soap, Passions. In my opinion, Michael and David Chokachi were the hottest guys to ever star on Baywatch! (Though David Charvet and Jeremy Jackson were hot as well!) Hope you enjoy!
Hottie o' the Memorial Day Weekend: Hunter Parrish
Posted: May 23, 2009 in Hottie o' the day, Hunter Parrish, Weeds
This guy is HOT HOT HOT!!! Hunter stars on Weeds and apparently gets to show off his body quite a bit. Maybe I should start watching that show…hmmm….lol
Hottie o' the Day: Taylor Kitsch
Posted: May 22, 2009 in Chace Crawford, Gossip Girl, Hottie o' the day, Steven Strait, Taylor Kitsch, X-Men
OK, so, I've been a fan of this guy ever since he did the movie, "The Covenant", with Gossip Girl star, Chace Crawford. Taylor then went on to do "Friday Night Lights", but most recently has been getting a lot of press for his role as Gambit in the new movie, "X-Men Origins: Wolverine". He is REALLY hot and totally deserving of a Hottie o' the Day post. Enjoy!!!

In this 10-year follow-up of the Supplementation with Multiple Micronutrients Intervention Trial (Summit), the Summit Institute of Development (SID) in Mataram, Indonesia, will assess the health and cognitive development of children at 8-11 years of age whose mothers had consumed multiple micronutrient supplements, as compared to iron and folic acid, during pregnancy and three months postpartum. Nearly 30,000 children will be assessed for school performance, mortality and morbidity, with approximately 3,000 of these to be evaluated for cognition, developmental status, and physiological and immune function.
The scientists aim to document the scope and pathways whereby maternal nutrition may have long-term effects on human potential, thereby providing needed evidence to inform global policy.

Home/Entertainment/15 great '80s horror movies to remember
15 great '80s horror movies to remember
We love nostalgia… So we decided to create a new story in homage to the films we grew up with. But not just that. When you think of the horror of the 80s, you think of a lot of movies that still have a place in the hearts of fans, see Friday the 13th, Nightmare Hour, Toy Assassin and Evil Dead, for example.
In this article, we're going to do something a little different, and we're going to remember and celebrate the '80s horror movies that are barely mentioned by younger generations, but beyond fun. The proposal is precisely to bring them to the attention of the youngest. And I hope they maybe return to pop culture somehow.
Check out below and comment on the ones you know.
Alligator – The killer alligator
We started the list at the very start of the decade, with this 1980 production. Anyone who grew up in the '80s and' 90s will certainly remember reruns of this feature film on SBT, where it terrified many children and teens. In the story, a little girl receives a baby alligator as a gift, but her father gets rid of the animal by throwing it in the toilet. Years later, the animal grew to an enormous size of over 10 meters in length, having fed on animals used for genetic research and dumped in the sewers. The alligator then moves up the food chain and begins to devour people, causing unrest in the city. The kiddie pool scene has certainly traumatized a generation.
Released in 1982, this film was then part of Globo's collection, being shown for the first time in an unprecedented way at Supercine. The story follows Julie (Meg Tilly, younger sister of Jennifer Tilly, Chucky's fiancee), a young woman who, to get into a student club, will have to go through hazing her classmates, and spend a night at the interior of a large mausoleum. There, unbeknownst to him, his friends go into hiding to scare him. They are all scared, however, as a Russian scientist returns from the grave thanks to an experiment at the site.
Catherine Mary Stuart was one of the actresses who marked the 1980s, having appeared in several cult productions of the decade in various genres, the life of Jonathan's First Sex and The Last Star Warrior. Here, in this 1984 production, she stars as Regina, a young woman living in Los Angeles, alongside her preppy sister Samantha. Very creative, the film uses as its motto the passage of the comet Halley, one of the most discussed themes of the 80s, which would occur two years later, in 1986. The proposal here is a girlpower I Am Legend, with the two teenage sisters being the only survivors of the passage of the star on Earth – which reduced almost the entire population to dust.
By skipping a year, we arrived in 1985, for another unpublished Globo exhibition. Originally planned as another chapter in George Romero's Undead franchise, the idea was scrapped and spawned his own series of films. The proposal here was for a younger, action-packed movie with a lot of incorrect humor. The movie makes one of the funniest productions to tackle the zombie theme and almost functions as a parody of everything that has been created so far. But without forgetting the violence and the blood. It was here that the living dead discovered their thirst for "brains".
In the same year 1985, Globo broadcast another horror hit that will mark the youth of many. With William Katt, the eternal American superhero, the actor lived as a divorced writer seeking to work on a book about his experiences during the Vietnam War. He eventually inherits a large house from a distant aunt and moves in. Once there, he discovers that the house is haunted, realizing his worst nightmares. A show of practical effects and many scares. Unavoidable.
In the 1980s, many horror movies were translated "on time" or "on time", even though their original titles had nothing to do with it. Do not ask me why. Thus, Silver Bullet or "Silver Bullet", based on a text by the master of horror Stephen King, became The Hour of the Werewolf. With the hits An American Werewolf in London and Scream of Horror, both from 1981, the two biggest hits of the 1980s subgenre, Hour of the Werewolf ended up somewhat in oblivion, but it didn't. should not be neglected. Released in 1985, it was "the" werewolf movie for many at the time. The interesting thing about the movie is that it stars a boy in a wheelchair, which makes his small town mishap even more nervous, in the face of attacks from the furry creature.
Another landmark film for the 80s generation, this feature film debuted on open television on SBT. Creative and trashy, A Coisa hit theaters in 1985 and used a lot of humor implied in a tone of satire about the unbridled consumerism of American society. The Thing (or The Stuff in the original title) was a white substance found in snow and quickly marketed as the new yogurt sensation. The product, which began to sell as much as Coca-Cola, dominating supermarkets and TV commercials, was in fact extremely harmful to humans – turning its consumers into uncontrollable drug addicts and even killing them in horrific ways, see the Chocolate Charlie character.
Released on Globo, this very high doses of violence thriller is another that marked the childhood of the generation of the 80s and 90s. Released in 1986, the film features the world's worst hitchhiker: John Ryder, a guy that seems to have come straight. from hell. The story follows young Jim (C. Thomas Howell), who drives his car on the roads and has the unfortunate idea of giving a man by the side of the road a ride to keep him company. Little by little, the boy realizes the mistake he made, because this Ryder is in fact a psychopath with a bigger name, ready to pursue him and have him accused of his murders. Ryder, of course, has become one of the most memorable characters in the late Rutger Hauer's career.
creepy night
Another 1986 film that was also present at Globo and thrilled horror fans of children and teens when it premiered on Tela Quente – besides, of course, having them sleep with the light on for at least one. week, looking under the bed to see if there was no worm. Night of Goosebumps is a real tasty salad that mixes everything the best pop culture has to offer: killers, aliens, damn worms, science experiments and zombies. Would that be okay with you? One of the best cult objects of the 80s, this film must be discovered by the new generations. If only to hear one of the best dialogues in cinema: "I have good news and bad news. The good thing is that your little friends have arrived. The worst part is that they are dead.
1985 and 1986 were the most creative years in terms of horror films. Everything that was theme seemed to be used when creating productions like this. Look at this very unique premise: The administration of a shopping center decides to create the most modern security system. Robots guided by artificial intelligence will serve as guardians of the site. When a group of employees decide to spend the night hiding in one of the stores for a party, the robots crash down and will treat them like invaders without mercy. The malls, the robots and everything related to the movie, released in 1986, is very 80's. And we love it for that.
Speaking of releases from 1986, here's one more. The idea here is to create totally rock n roll youth horror. No Freddy or Jason, the new iconic villain offered here comes in the form of a rock star. The protagonist is a boy who experiences constant bullying at school. Its only escape valve are the songs of the idol, the so-called rock star. Yet the young man is devastated and unfounded when he learns of the death of his favorite singer. The rocker was quick to appear in the form of an entity to "help" his biggest fan, by eliminating his tormentors.
Last article of the year 1986, it is one of the most original slashers of the 80s. Anyone who knows, knows. Presented by Globo, where it wowed fans, the film has since won over admirers and fans as a cult item. Unfairly, we don't remember much. The star is Amy Steel, the last girl from Friday the 13th – Part 2 (1981). In very humorous passages, Night of Deadly Pranks offers a different slasher. Where is it? A group of young friends will spend the weekend in a big house in one of them, located on an island. Problem is, the hostess has prepared a weekend full of crazy jokes and pranks. But what happens when these pranks start to get more and more serious?
We're back here for a quick stop in 1984. Used as a benchmark for Jordan Peele in Us (2019), the film traces the urban legend about homeless people living underground in New York City, taking a major turn. When several people begin to mysteriously disappear in one of the largest cities in the world, a police and journalistic investigation begins. The clues lead to the city's basement, however, what comes out of it isn't human. The CHUD retains the participation of a few well-known personalities at the start of their career.
Well, you only have to read this title to know right away that the film does not take itself seriously at all. But this isn't just a simple trash movie, turning out to be a very fun, very creative feature that knows a lot about using its ridiculous premise in its favor. In the plot, an alien race arrives on Earth to spread horror. And believe me, the film uses violence. The point is, these aliens have the appearance of clowns beyond strangeness and everything related to them has a circus theme. For example, your spaceship is a tent, and your weapons and tech are completely tied to the universe of characters such as killer popcorn, evil shadows, air balloons, sour face pies, and more. To have a good laugh with the most cult animatronic clowns in cinema, in this film released in 1988.
To close the list, another film from 1988. Here, another threat from space. The Killing Bubble is the remake of a 1950s film production, the climax of the sci-fi movie, starring Steve McQueen. The remake is one of the few instances where the new film manages to outdo its original in terms of creativity and production quality. With more features and better effects, The Killing Bubble becomes one of the more interesting productions of the genre in the 80s. Too bad it didn't generate a sequel – since the ending leaves a hook for that; and has fallen by the wayside over the years. The script even enhances the plot of the original film, with a very welcome twist centered around American paranoia.

What is Rectal Prolapse (or Procedentia)?
Your physician can diagnose this condition by taking a careful history and performing a complete anorectal examination. To demonstrate the prolapse, patients may be asked to "strain" as if having a bowel movement or to sit on the commode and "strain" prior to examination.
At times, however, a rectal prolapse may be "hidden," or internal. In this situation, an X-ray examination called a videodefecogram may be helpful. This examination, which takes X-ray pictures while the patient is having a bowel movement, can also assist the physician in determining whether surgery may be beneficial and which operation may be appropriate.
Abdominal or rectal surgery may be suggested. Your doctor can help you decide which method will most likely achieve the best result by taking into account many factors, such as age, physical condition, extent of prolapse and the results of various tests. Most commonly, surgery is done through the abdomen and is called the Ripstein procedure.
For advanced, specialized care, visit Dayton Colon & Rectal Center. Our rectal prolapse patients come to us from the area of Miami Valley, in the greater Dayton area and in the greater Springfield area, including: Dayton, Huber Heights, Centerville, Englewood and Kettering in Montgomery County, OH; Springfield in Clark County, OH; and Beavercreek and Xenia in Green County, OH.

ANKARA (Reuters) – President Tayyip Erdogan said on Tuesday Turkey would not abide by the renewed U.S. sanctions on Iran's oil and shipping industries as they were aimed at "unbalancing the world".
Washington reimposed the sanctions on Monday, ditching a 2015 deal between world powers and Iran over its nuclear programme. The U.S. measures temporarily allow some major customers, including Turkey, to continue buying Iranian crude.
NATO member Turkey depends heavily on imports to meet its energy needs and neighbouring Iran has been one of its main suppliers of oil because of its proximity, the quality of its crude and favourable price differentials.
U.S. President Donald Trump aims to hit Iran's economy and force it to abandon not only its nuclear ambitions and ballistic missile programme but also its support for militant proxies in Syria, Yemen, Lebanon and other parts of the Middle East.
