Yerevan Noy Wine Factory, officially known as Yerevan Noy Brandy-Wine-Vodka Factory or simply "Noy", is an alcoholic drinks production company in Yerevan, Armenia. It was founded in 1877 during the rule of the Russian Empire. The factory is located on the left bank of Hrazdan river in the heart of Yerevan, occupying the area of the historic great Yerevan Fortress.
Nerses Tairyan was a well-known merchant and philanthropist. In 1877 he started industrial production of wine, in 1887 - of brandy at the territory of the former Erivan Fortress. Hovhannes Aivazovsky, who was a relative of Tairyan, helped him to build the factory. Yerevan Wine Factory was built in 1938 on the site of the former sardar palace. The building was designed by architect Rafael Israelyan.
In 2002, the factory entered Multi Group Concern. Some 50 million USD were invested into restoration and constructions, acquisition of new bottling line and oak barrels. A number of recipes and technologies were restored by crumbs. With the help of old papers, museum exhibits, family archives, specialists and technologists of the factory assembled and classified the whole invaluable experience, accumulated throughout the period of plant's functioning, and, consequently, the lost and forgotten glorious name of Armenian Brandy was restored.

We all know tinnitus is the unbearable ringing sensation and their cases have been drastically increasing due to many factors. Various studies have been stated this condition as incurable although some of the research has stated the remedial measures to overcome this illness. Though it is true that you cannot completely cure your ringing sensation, but you can overcome this annoying occurrence by implementing a few easy measures.
The food you eat during tinnitus can exacerbate your tinnitus seizures. Foods are not the contributor of tinnitus, but it can play a major role in worsening tinnitus symptoms. To reduce the nuisance of tinnitus, it is necessary to avoid some food.
Consumption of high salt content in the daily diet can trigger frequent episodes of tinnitus as it constricts the blood vessels and responsible for the elevation of blood pressure. The salt content we consume through daily diet mostly comes from processed foods. Especially the canned foods that contain salt as preservatives can cause an extremely negative effect on your hearing ability. Those who are habitual of sprinkling salt on their favorite food are at high risk of developing severe tinnitus.
Though caffeine offers a lot of health benefits, it is not beneficial in certain conditions such as tinnitus. The regular consumption of caffeine should be aware of its negative impact as it makes your tinnitus more worse. Cut back the high caffeine intake as it also restricts your blood flow rate and causes hypertension which is not considered good for tinnitus.
Sugar is also considered harmful in case of tinnitus. It is reported that 84 to 92% of tinnitus patients have developed the metabolic disorder (Hyperinsulinemia) due to high sugar intake. This condition can lead to diabetes as it can also contribute to the elevation of insulin in circulating blood. To avoid progression of severe tinnitus, you have to maintain a balance in your diet.
A scientist has conducted an analytical test on some tinnitus patients, after the laboratory analysis, they found that those who consume sulfites in daily diet are likely to suffer more from severe tinnitus episodes. See your audiologist to take proper medicinal and dietary advice to overcome the effects of tinnitus.
Maintaining your overall health can keep you away from many undesirable conditions including tinnitus, as you are aware of the fact that consumption of saturated fat can be hazardous if you are suffering cardio diseases. The Trans fat food such as beef and butter can trigger tinnitus symptoms as it is responsible for reducing the level of blood flow rate by forming arterial plague.
As you have no medicinal option to cure your condition permanently, you have to rely on some preventive measure to overcome the annoying noises. Keep your diet filled with nutritious foods but must ensure that those food doesn't cause any triggering effect on your tinnitus.

Atlantic City Boat Show
British Marine Expo
Miami Yacht Show
Seatec
A new-look IBEX
After 19 years in South Florida, the show adds an aftermarket pavilion and moves to Louisville
"New" is the operative word in describing this year's 20th anniversary International BoatBuilders' Exhibition & Conference.
New venue. New city. New aftermarket pavilion. New seminars. New events.
For the first time, IBEX moves out of South Florida and into the Midwest Sept. 28-30, taking over much of the Kentucky Exposition Center in Louisville. The other major change this year is the MAATS Aftermarket Pavilion, which was added after the demise of the Marine Aftermarket Accessories Trade Show.
"I think we'll have a good show," says Thom Dammrich, president of the National Marine Manufacturers Association, which produces IBEX, along with Professional BoatBuilder magazine. "Will it be an all-time high? Probably not, because the industry is still in the doldrums a bit, but I think it will be better than last year."
Schedule of Events • IBEX runs Tuesday, Sept. 28, through Thursday, Sept. 30 • IBEX All-Industry Breakfast: Tuesday, 7:30-9:30 a.m. • Opening-night party: Tuesday, 6:30 p.m., downtown at Fourth Street Live • NMMA Using Market Intelligence for Market Growth: Wednesday, 8 a.m.-1 p.m. • Exhibit Hall open Tuesday and Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.; Thursday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. • Exhibitors' Workshops: Tuesday and Wednesday, 1-2 p.m. • Seminar hours: Tuesday and Wednesday, 8:30-10 a.m.; 3:30-5 p.m.; Thursday, 8:30-10 a.m.; 2:30-4 p.m.
Attendance at last year's IBEX was down an estimated 31 percent from 2008, reflecting the challenging economic environment.
This year, even when there were months to go before the show opened, registrations, the number of exhibitors and the amount of exhibition space were up from 2009, Dammrich notes.
Carl Cramer, publisher of Professional BoatBuilder, says there's a lot of excitement about the new location. Louisville, which boasts one of the largest convention venues in the country, offers less expensive hotels and restaurants than South Florida and is within a day's driving distance of about half of the U.S. population, as well as a large number of boat manufacturers, Cramer notes.
The show has a contract to be in Louisville for at least three years.
"That's not to say there aren't some people who would prefer that we were going to be in South Florida, but we're not going to be," Cramer says, "We're feeling good about where we are at the moment and can't wait to get it open and get going."
Larry Vandiver, director of marketing for exhibitor Suzuki, says the change in location is largely positive, providing new prospects for his company.
"We feel that the change in venue will give us an opportunity to see some Midwest builders in those areas that we haven't seen in the past when it's been in Florida," he says. "At the same time, in talking to some of our Southern builders, they've already indicated to us they're not going to make the trip up there. So we're going to lose some and gain some."
Tim Kent, marketing manager for Marinco Electrical Group, says everyone his company hopes to meet with has said they will be there.
"The people who normally go are going, even though there was a little bit of grousing last year because I think people like going to Miami," he says. "What I think is going to happen is we're going to see people that we don't normally see, in addition to the people that we do normally see."
As of mid-July, about 500 exhibitors had signed up for IBEX, which put it on par with the 2009 event with more than two months to go until the show opens, Cramer says. About 120 aftermarket companies will be at the show, Dammrich says, and about 45 to 50 of those are expected to be part of the MAATS pavilion, which is being sponsored by Soundings Trade Only.
"Louisville is in the heart of boatbuilding country, with about 80 percent of the boats built in this country being built within a 750-mile radius of Louisville," Dammrich says. "We're expecting a strong crowd, but particularly strong from the Midwest."
MAATS Pavilion
With attendance at MAATS decreasing during the last few years, organizers decided that rolling it into IBEX as a component would be the best way to provide a venue for the aftermarket segment to exhibit its products.
In 2009, MAATS drew 211 exhibitors and 1,345 badge holders. That was down from 1,780 badge holders in 2008, according to the NMMA.
"To improve the efficiency of marine trade shows, the scope of IBEX needed to change," Cramer previously said. "One trade event for OEM and aftermarket parts and accessories will create a more productive environment, reduce exhibitor costs and time and attract a broader base of attendees."
Dammrich acknowledges that IBEX's time frame may not be ideal for many former MAATS exhibitors, who were used to a mid-summer event.
"They may not be in the prime buying season for next year, but it's an opportunity to make contacts, strengthen relationships, build new relationships and introduce products," he says. "Today, with the Internet, people don't rely solely on a twice-a-year catalog. If someone finds a new aftermarket product at IBEX, they can get it out immediately using the Internet."
Another change that comes with the joining of MAATS and IBEX is that the National Marine Distributors Association's S.T.E.P. purchasing event is no longer held in conjunction with MAATS. Instead, this year S.T.E.P. was held in late July outside Chicago. Nearly 300 people attended the four-day event and about 125 companies attended.
"We expect that there will be NMDA members both walking the show floor and exhibiting at IBEX, as they have done in the past. With our S.T.E.P. purchasing event just finishing, we are not sure how many distributors will actually be doing buying meetings as part of the MAATS pavilion," says NMDA executive director Nancy Cueroni. "We have worked with the NMMA the past few months to make sure our members are aware of the availability of buyer/supplier meetings in Louisville."
Amber McCrocklin, president of Paws Aboard, says her company used to exhibit at MAATS and will be a part of the MAATS pavilion at IBEX.
"It is important for us to attend the industry shows to allow us time to spend with current customers, as well as meeting new, future customers," she says. "I certainly hope there will be higher attendance this year. From what I understand, they chose Louisville due to its proximity to the majority of the customer base."
Doug Curtis, director of marketing for Dometic Marine, says the integration of the two shows is a positive step.
"It brings two segments of the industry together in one place at one time," he says. "I am confident that IBEX in Louisville will provide a great platform from which to launch our innovative new product range to an industry that we feel is recovering."
Seminars and more
IBEX this year starts with the industry breakfast - an event that had traditionally been held on the last day of the show. The Alan Freedman Award will be presented and the IBEX Innovation Awards will also be announced.
Dammrich says moving the Innovation Awards to the first day will give more people a chance to learn about these products.
The breakfast will feature a keynote address from Tori Murden McClure, the first woman and first American to row solo across the Atlantic - a feat she accomplished in 1999. In 2009, she published "A Pearl in the Storm: How I Found My Heart in the Middle of the Atlantic Ocean."
McClure was recently named president of Spalding University in Louisville and assumed the post July 1.
Once again, dozens of seminars on all aspects of the industry - from on-board systems to marina operations to design and engineering - will be offered throughout IBEX. Also, outdoor exhibitor demonstrations and workshops will take place throughout the show.
This year's IBEX features a dealer development track, which includes many seminars specifically tailored to those who work in the service and parts departments of dealerships. Topics for the six seminars include competitive selling sales fundamentals and boat fuel systems.
IBEX will feature all of the new parts, systems and aftermarket products that parts and service managers can expect to see on 2012 model-year boats, Dammrich says.
"What we're trying to say is, don't let the first time you see these things be when a boat is delivered to your dealership," Dammrich says. "Come to IBEX and see these new systems that are going to be on the boats you're going to be buying next year and begin familiarizing yourself and preparing to talk about these systems with potential customers."
Pre-conference workshops will take place Sept. 27. These are being offered by Diab Technologies, WEST Systems and the Marine Industry Training & Education Council.
A special session titled "Using Marketing Intelligence for Market Growth" is scheduled from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Sept. 29 The program will be moderated by Jim Petru, the NMMA's director of industry statistics and research, and panelists include: Ron Hein, Foresight Research; Jack Ellis, Info-Link Technologies; Jerry Mona, Left Brain Marketing; Tom Walworth, Statistical Surveys; and Ed Mahoney, Recreational Marine Research Center at Michigan State University.
Attendees and exhibitors also are invited to an opening-night party in downtown Louisville.
On the upswing
Heading into IBEX, many who spoke with Soundings Trade Only say conditions seem better now than last year as they prepared for the show.
"The manufacturers are in much better shape this year than they were a year ago. That doesn't mean there aren't still challenges ahead, but last year production was down about 70 percent, so by the time IBEX rolled around people could not see where the end was," Dammrich says.
"This year, production is up," he adds. "It's certainly not anywhere back to what it was, but people are producing more boats, people have leaned out their businesses to the point where they can make some money at these production levels and so I think they're feeling better."
Those attending and exhibiting at this year's show are already looking forward to the 2012 model year, Dammrich says.
"Certainly by 2012 the boat buyer will be back, the economy will be in much better shape than it is today and people need to begin seeing what's new out there," he says.
Cramer says IBEX always features the latest technologies and there's "some good, new technologies that boatbuilders and repairers and dealers and yacht designers can use to effectively grow their businesses."
Marinco's Kent says companies these days are looking for innovative new products to add to their boats to make them more attractive in the marketplace, and IBEX is the place to find those products.
Also, Suzuki's Vandiver notes, many builders are running lean on supplies these days and some boat companies are having difficulty getting items such as cleats, seats or windshields.
"So this may be a good opportunity for additional suppliers or there may be an opportunity to pick up additional business from guys that just need to have a secondary source to go to," he says.
The industry is definitely on the upturn and even though the growth hasn't been huge, it's there, says Gus Blakely, manager of Suzuki's boatbuilder business. People are looking for affordability right now, he says, and IBEX attendees will be looking for supplies that can put more value into their boats while keeping costs down.
"We think there's lots of opportunities to gather some new business," Vandiver says. "IBEX gives us an opportunity in one venue to have conversations with many of our important boat company partners, as well as see some new people.
From our standpoint, IBEX is important to see what kind of products are out there in the marketplace and what's being used."

A molecular test performed using fresh-frozen tissue was proposed for use in the prognosis of patients with pleural mesothelioma. The accuracy of the test and its properties was assessed under Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments–approved guidelines using FFPE tissue from an independent multicenter patient cohort. Concordance studies were performed using matched frozen and FFPE mesothelioma samples. The prognostic value of the test was evaluated in an independent validation cohort of 73 mesothelioma patients who underwent surgical resection. FFPE-based classification demonstrated overall high concordance (83%) with the matched frozen specimens, on removal of cases with low confidence scores, showing sensitivity and specificity in predicting type B classification (poor outcome) of 43% and 98%, respectively. Concordance between research and clinical methods increased to 87% on removal of low confidence cases. Median survival times in the validation cohort were 18 and 7 months in type A and type B cases, respectively (P = 0.002). Multivariate classification adding pathologic staging information to the gene expression score resulted in significant stratification of risk groups. The median survival times were 52 and 14 months in the low-risk (class 1) and intermediate-risk (class 2) groups, respectively. The prognostic molecular test for mesothelioma can be performed on FFPE tissues to predict survival, and can provide an orthogonal tool, in combination with established pathologic parameters, for risk evaluation.

Introduction to Medical Statistics/Analysis of a single sample
< Introduction to Medical Statistics
Analysis of a single sampleEdit
Before getting started with the theory, we will consider a simple example. The example will expose the basic components of a statistical analysis and aim to give an intuitive understanding of the type of results that can be obtained from such an analysis.
A naive question on the human body temperature is whether or not, it on average is 37°C? To answer this question a study was done, which measured the temperature on 130 individuals. The data can be downloaded here normtemp.dat and documentation can be found in (Shoemaker, 1996), and references therein. A brief summary of the data is the following, so-called stem-and-leaf plot:
Stem-and-leaf plot for tempC (Body Temperature / Celsius)
tempC rounded to nearest multiple of .1

This shows, for example, that one person (first from the top) had a body temperature of 35.7°C, another (second from top) had 35.8°C, while two (three and four from the top) had 35.9°C, and so on. Most had temperatures around 36.6°C to 37.3°C.
A very similar graphical presentation of the same data is given in the histogram below:
Histogram of 130 persons body temperatures.
If we want to summarize the data using numbers, two important measures are the mean and the standard deviation (SD). For this sample of data, the mean is 36.805°C and the SD is 0.407°C. We will later give a more precise definition of these two summary statistics but for now we can think of them as giving the central point of the data (the mean) and a measure of the variability of the data around their mean. Graphically, the mean can be thought of as the balancing point of the distribution were the columns of the histogram to have weight identical to their area. The SD can for this kind of data be interpreted as follows: If we take the mean and subtract two times the SD, respectively add two times the SD, then approximately 95% of all the subjects will have body temperatures in this interval.
After this first look at the data, let us return to the question of interest: Is the true average body temperature 37°C? One way of answering this is to turn the question around, and start with assuming that 37°C is actually the true, average temperature. The question then becomes, what would samples of size 130 from such a hypothetical population look like? This can be answered with statistical theory, or – in this computerized age – with simulated samples based on random number generation. Specifically, let us assume that this hypothetical population has the distribution of body temperatures shown below:
Distribution of body temperature in a hypothetical population with mean 37°C and an SD of 0.407°C.
Imagine that we next draw 1,000 samples, each consisting of 130 individuals. What would their means look like? This is shown here:
Histogram of mean body temperature in 1,000 samples from a hypothetical population with a true mean of 37°C and an SD of 0.407°C.
Again we see an approximately bell-shaped histogram. The averages of the samples are centered around 37°C (like the hypothetical distribution was), but with a much smaller spread than before. All of the one thousand averages lie between 36.89°C and 37.10°C. This is the first important observation we can make: The variability of an average is smaller (usually much smaller) than the variability of a single observation. We shall later see, that an explicit formula exists describing this reduction in variability. The second important observation, is that none of the one thousand samples had a mean equal to 36.805°C or less (remember that 36.805°C was the actual mean observed on the "real" individuals). It is thus extremely unlikely to get a sample mean of 36.805°C, had the true average temperature in the population been 37°C. This is what is known as a statistical significant result, which is technical jargon for stating that the actually observed data is very different from what would be expected, had the investigated hypothesis (is the true average of body temperatures 37°C?) been true. The answer to our question is thus that while we cannot completely rule that the true average body temperature is 37°, it would be extremely unlikely to observe what we actually did observe, had the true average been 37°. Hence, we conclude that the true average body temperature is not 37°, ie. we reject this hypothesis.
So it was not 37° which is actually not a very informative finding. The far more interesting question is, what the true average body temperature could then be, judged from what we observed in this sample. This is typically answered with a so-called confidence interval. The fundamental rationale behind a confidence interval is to use the data to obtain the best possible (ie. narrow) interval where the true value of a parameter can be expected to be found with a given probability, typically 95%. Formulas for computing the interval depend on type of data and the way they were sampled, but we will defer this to later Chapters and for now concentrate on their interpretation.
Hence let us again consider the hypothetic population described above with mean 37°C and an SD of 0.407°C. In the Figure below we see the result of computing 95% confidence intervals for 50 random samples from this hypothetical distribution. Each interval is represented by a dot indicating the mean of the specific sample while the vertical lines indicate the confidence interval computed for the sample.
Fifty 95% confidence intervals based on 50 samples from a hyphypothetical normal distribution with a mean of 37°C and SD of 0.407°C.
Note that of the 50 confidence intervals, there are only two which do not contain the true value of 37°C, the true value for this hypothetical population. This matches rather closely with the definition, stating that 95% of such intervals should contain the true value. In other words 5% of the intervals should not contain the true value, which for 50 samples would correspond to 2.5 of the intervals not covering the true value.
For this specific sample based on real observations the 95% confidence interval is (36.73°C; 36.88°C). The main conclusion regarding the average human body temperature based on this dataset, is thus that the best estimate of the true mean is 36.81°C and we are 95% confident that the true value is somewhere in the range of (36.73°C; 36.88°C). It is the latter part of the statement, which is crucial to appreciating the value of a statistical analysis: If conducted properly it yields a measure of the uncertainty of the results, or in everyday words the likely distance to the true value has been measured, despite its unknown exact value.

He was in command of a detachment at Fort Chiquaqua, some 30 km east-south-east of Fort Salisbury (now Harare), where he beseiged the Mashona chief Goromonzi. As the siege was mainly quiet, he was able to spend considerable time collecting birds with his Lee Metford rifle. The skins, which he prepared himself to a very high standard, were sent to the British Museum (Natural History) and were described by Sowerby in a paper entitled "On a collection of birds from Fort Chiquaqua, Mashonaland, with notes by R. Bowdler Sharpe, LL.D." in The Ibis (1898). The collection consisted of 48 species, including a species of Barbet which Sharpe considered new to science and named Smilhorhis sowerbyi after the collector (later recognised as a subspecies of Whyte's Barbet, Stactolaema Whytii Sowerbyi).

We are used to relying on our doctors and other health care practitioners for our health. We put our health in their hands hoping they can fix us when something goes wrong.
But your doctor is not there to make you healthy.
They are there to treat your symptoms. You go to the doctor so they can treat your sickness. But there's something they are probably not telling you.
70% of disease is preventable. And much of it is also reversible. Chronic diseases like heart disease, stroke, some cancers, type 2 diabetes, arthritis, obesity, metabolic syndrome, and respiratory diseases are greatly influenced by your lifestyle.
What that means for you is that you are not a prisoner to your diagnosis or your prognosis. Unless you choose to be.
If you merely treat symptoms and change nothing else, what do you think will happen? You will either have to continue to treat it forever, or it will go away and come back. Yet that's what we do – we treat symptoms.
I'm not saying we shouldn't seek medical treatment. On the contrary, medical treatments save lives. But that doesn't have to be the end of the story. You can do more for your long term health than anyone can do for you.
Unfortunately, doctors and health professionals often do not have the time, resources, or training to work with you on lifestyle factors. And because behavior and lifestyle change can be difficult, they may not even suggest it.
Even though you doctor may not be telling you that changes in lifestyle can prevent and even reverse some of the most common chronic diseases, that doesn't mean you should settle for a prescription and see what happens.
Nutrition – eat real food that comes from nature, including lots of fruits and vegetables (these are nature's prescriptions). And know what you're putting into your body.
Physical activity – move some every day. If you're not very active in your daily activities, choose to do some sort of exercise that gets your heart pumping.
Strong Muscles and Bones – make it a priority to strengthen your muscles and bones. Strength training can be done with very little equipment.
Smoking – stop it. Enough said.
Alcohol – take it easy. Alcohol makes your body work extremely hard. Enjoy and occasional drink if you want to but give your body a break.
The body is made to heal itself. Its natural state is one of health and if you give it what it needs to thrive, it has a much better chance of achieving it. Look at each lifestyle factor and think about what you can do differently now to create health in your body and prevent illness later.

Getaround Announces New Headquarters And Plans To Create More Local Jobs As Company Continues To Expand
Peer-to-peer car sharing market leader shows momentum with new growth
SAN FRANCISCO— April 17, 2012 — Leading peer-to-peer carsharing company Getaround today announced it has moved offices to accommodate its growing team and increased demand for its services across the country. Getaround is proud to maintain headquarters in San Francisco, in its new office located in the booming South of Market area. This move follows recent city rollouts in Austin, TX and Portland, OR, and recent recognition from Frost & Sullivan as the leader in the peer-to-peer carsharing space.
Following its 2011 grand prize win at TechCrunch Disrupt, Getaround has continued to see dramatic growth and has officially launched in four cities - San Francisco, CA, San Diego, CA, Portland, OR and Austin, TX. In this same time, the company has more than quadrupled its staff, bringing the total full-time employee count to 30, with plans to hire five additional employees in the near term. More local jobs will be added as the company continues its expansion. Other recent milestones include:
- Raising $3.4 Million in seed funding- Receiving landmark $1.7 Million Federal Grant- More than 10,000 car listings nationwide
"Our rapid and consistent growth, which drove the need to move offices, is a testament to the increasing adoption of the peer-to-peer model of carsharing and the hard work and dedication our team has put in over the past year," said Sam Zaid, CEO of Getaround. "Our team has done a great job honing in on what works and what doesn't. Market by market launches are imminent in the next year, but as always, Getaround strives to ensure a near perfect experience as we roll out into new cities."
The new Getaround office boasts huge open spaces, high ceilings, gym area and a roof deck. The space is designed to foster an open work environment, while promoting creativity and collaboration, including Idea Paint on several surfaces-turning walls into white boards. To help handle the increasing data needs, Getaround has invested in San Francisco-based Meraki Routers. Additional features include iPhone-enabled door locks by Lockitron and Steelcase Air Touch desks which easily convert from sitting to standing position and meet top environmental standards. Also decked out with a full kitchen, the new offices promote a community-oriented working space with catered lunches and a constant supply of healthy drinks and snacks.

Installed new WLG-1101 wireless card. Software shows card is talking to the network but network neighborhood shows no connections. Will not connect Using IE 6 either. Using w98se. Workgroup and computer name correct. Winipcfg will not renew connection tried manual isp no luck either. Card is talking just will not connect. Any Ideas?
Make sure the wireless transceiver is turned on. Almost all laptops have a switch that lets you turn it off when not in use to conserve battery energy. The switch is usually on the front edge of the computer.
Check the router protocols (for steps 2, 3, and 4, connect to the router's web page using a computer connected to the router with a network cable). If, for example, the router is using 802.11n only, and your laptop has an older wireless card (802.11b or 802.11g), they won't talk to each other. In that case, you would want to set the router to mixed protocol mode.
Check the router security settings, and make sure your laptop's settings match. They should be using the same encryption (TKIP or AES), authentication type (WEP, WPA, WPA2 - WPA2 is preferred) and wireless security key/password. The laptop computer's settings are found by right-clicking the Wireless Network icon in the System Tray and selecting Properties.
If the router has a limited client list, make sure the MAC address for your wireless card is properly entered on the list. If the wireless card was factory installed, the MAC address should be on a sticker on the bottom of the computer.
Consider range limiting factors. If the router or laptop is located too near ductwork, metal appliances or even metal furniture framing, this could create blind spots in the broadcast patterns. Sometimes moving a few inches can make a significant difference. You can check this by right-clicking the wireless network icon in the System Tray and selecting View Available Wireless Networks. A list of networks in the neighborhood (including yours) should show the relative signal strength of each router at your location. Note that the strength of weaker signals is often highly variable - it may be different each time you refresh the view.
I think I covered everything other than hardware problems. Sometimes you can get everything matched, but the router and laptop still won't talk until you shutdown and restart both (turn the router back on first). I had a Windows Vista unit with this issue when Vista first came out - after that it never again had a connection problem with that router as far as I know.
Hard to say what the issue is based on the information you provided.. There are actually a lot of reasons you might have lost the connection.
- Are you connected? - Are you connected to the proper network? - Is your network card "disabled" for some reason? Some laptops have a disable button that overrides the card so the wireless radio can be shut off quickly and easily. Make sure it's not been tripped. Usually laptops have an LED to indicate if the wireless radio is running.. usually blue.
note1: be sure to check the "order of preferred networks" and from that screen delete all wireless networks you won't connect to somewhat regularly and/or ones you've connected to accidentally in the past. Make sure that your home network is tops in the list.
note2: if you did not create your own name for your wireless network and are still running the default name, it's definitely smart to change that. Your laptop can easily get confused with other networks in the neighborhood that have the same name.
Laptop states wireless adapter not installed and configured? worked before.
To check if the wireless card is bad or OK.
Go to Control Panel - Network Connections - Is the wireless network connection listed and if so is there a red X on this connection?
If so, right click on the wireless and click Repair - this may fix your problem, it forces the wireless router to issue the wireless card with a new IP address.
If it doesn't fix the problem then go to Control Panel - System - Hardware tab - Device Manager - scroll down to Network Adapters and expand and check your wireless card, is it Working and Enabled?
If has a yellow ? against it or not working then reinstall the wireless card driver.
If the wireless card is built-in check the BIOS to see if the wireless card is enabled, if not enable the wireless card and repeat the above steps.
If this doesn't fix your problem then the wireless card is faulty and you need a new wireless card. You can get a PCMCIA wireless card to replace the faulty wireless card. If the wireless card is built-in then disable the faulty wireless card in the BIOS before you install the new wireless card.
Check whether the drivers for the motherboard is installed for the wireless Adapter card if it is onboard or if it is a PCI wireless card please reinstall the drivers using the software which came with that card. Thanks. It should work.
you can connect your huawei card to your computer usb port then install driver then you can use it.
Try this link http://members.driverguide.com/driver/detail.php?driverid=1046913 i think use the download button right side column.
So are you saying that it's not showing any network on the view available network screen? What is the message on the screen?
What is the model and brand of your wireless router from talk talk?
Its possible that we may need to check the wireless settings inside the wireless router. Provide me with it's model no. and I will look for a solution for you.
You may find it at driverguide.com Registration is free, and they seem to have it.
have you typed in the ssid in the same way it is shown? it has to be in the case.
Have a manual for Generic Memory (WLG1101) 802.11g/b Wireless Adapter?

Wellness In The Workplace: Dallas-based Companies Help Grow An Evolving Industry
07/27/2018| by Madeline Fry| Share Post
When workplace wellness first became buzzworthy, it was the prospect of cost savings that drew in business owners. These days, that's not the only—or even the predominate—factor, says David Evans, vice president at Dallas-based Cooper Wellness Strategies.
"They were looking for, 'Where can we target our programs to help improve or reduce those things where there is health-related cost?'" Evans says. "While those things are certainly still important, the issue now for companies is 'What's the culture of our company that supports our employees in all aspects of their lives?' The corporate fitness and the corporate wellness initiatives are appropriately finding themselves in that answer."
Wellness in the workplace can take the form of a variety of health-related perks: Everything from standing desks or complimentary personal fitness trainers to health screenings or bananas in the break room. At first viewed strictly as a cost-saver for businesses, the $8 billion corporate wellness industry is growing off its newfound reputation as a cultural differentiator.
Businesses can't legally require their employees to engage in wellness programs, but there's nothing stopping employers from tying incentives to initiatives. The effectiveness of even incentivized wellness is still up for debate, however.
A recent study from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign revealed that wellness programs had little effect on employee behavior. Already healthy employees were more likely to voluntarily participate in wellness programs, and those who did experienced little drop in healthcare costs.
But workplace wellness has found staying power because of its impact on worker satisfaction. One in two employees say a greater emphasis on wellness—physical, psychological, financial—matters to them on the job, according to the 2018 Global Talent Trends survey. Regardless of whether corporate wellness programs can be effective in lowering premiums or businesses' healthcare costs, they appear to signal to employees that their employers care about their wellbeing.
Many companies roll out wellness initiatives through partnerships with third-party firms. Businesses like Dallas-based Cooper Wellness Strategies and Viverae offer health and wellness resources to companies in North Texas and across the nation.
Named among the Inc. 5000 fastest growing private companies in 2016, Viverae offers lifestyle coaching, health screening, personalized care plans, and a mobile app. It has more than 600 clients—typically self-insured, mid-market companies—and says it brought in revenue of about $50 million last year. CEO Mike Lamb says the company's wellness plans ultimately do lower healthcare costs for companies because they minimize risk factors.
"We offer comprehensive employer wellness solutions," Lamb says. "We did a five-year study and found that of clients who utilized best practices, members say they saw a reduction of 47.5 percent in risk factors."
Lamb says workplace wellness is a fragmented industry where, for the most part, no two providers look alike. But Viverae competes with companies such as Aetna, Cigna, Vitality, and Virgin Pulse.
Viverae carved its niche, according to Lamb, by becoming one of the first wellness companies to offer financial wellness. The company says more than 80 percent of employees want their employers to offer some sort of financial education and rank financial problems, not health issues, as their biggest stressor. Two years ago, Viverae began to offer financial health assessments, interactive education courses, and tracking tools, among other services.
Individual companies have started to develop their own wellness plans, too. Dallas-based Satori Capital, which created initiatives four years ago, recruits new employees by highlighting its focus on holistic wellness. Hope Kahan, operations director at Satori Capital, says she tells potential employees that achieving individual health allows the company to perform at peak potential.
"We want people who don't view our benefits as just fun," Kahan says. "I don't want people to think we're just doing the latest trendy thing to keep up with benefits to attract talent. We're very serious about performing at our best together."
The company offers perks such as healthy food in the kitchen, a seven-minute meditation before team meetings, one-on-one fitness and nutrition coaching, and guided meditation. Employees even get an annual allowance that they can use for anything from gym memberships or personal training to yoga or new hiking boots. It also brings in quarterly speakers to discuss emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual well-being.
Kahan says the measurable results of their program come in the form of personal initiatives employees have achieved, but the company culture isn't built around the short-term.
"We aim to support our team members in reaching their personal best," says co-founder Randy Eisenman. "We believe this effort significantly improves their lives and helps drive the long-term success of our business."

            case 2: if(statistics == null) return new statistics();
                    else return statistics;
        }
        return null;
    }

thank you for your help =)

A: assuming you are using the view pager for loading fragments,use
viewPager.setOffscreenPageLimit(2);

Khorloogiin Choibalsan (en mongol ᠬᠣᠷᠯᠤᠠ ᠶᠢᠨᠴᠣᠶᠢᠪᠠᠯᠰᠠᠩ) va ser president de la República Popular de Mongòlia des del 24 de gener de 1929 fins al 27 d'abril de 1930.

Elegit en el si del Partit Revolucionari Popular, va ser el quart president de la Mongòlia contemporània (la d'abans de 1992).

Orígens
Khorloogiin Choibalsan va néixer el 8 de febrer de 1895 a Achit Beysiyn, prop de la actual Choibalsan, província de Dornod. Va ser el més jove de quatre fills nascuts d'una pobra ramadera soltera anomenada Khorloo (el nom de Khorloogiin és un matronímic). El seu pare era probablement un mongol Daur de la Mongòlia Interior anomenat Jamsu, però Choibalsan va afirmar ignorar la seva identitat. Nomenat Dugar al néixer, va assumir el nom religiós Choibalsan als 13 anys després d'ingressar al monestir budista local de San Beysiyn Khüree on es va formar per ser un monjo lamaista. Cinc anys més tard, va fugir amb un novici cap a Khüree (conegut com a Urga - l'actual Ulaanbaatar) on va fer diversos treballs. En part, per impedir-li que tornés al monestir, un professor amic de Buryat anomenat Nikolai Danchinov l'havia inscrit a l'Escola de Traductors de Rússia-Mongòlia del consolat rus. Un any més tard va ser enviat a expenses públiques per estudiar en un institut a Irkutsk.

Mark Boswell
Diane Jones Konihowski
Chantal Petitclerc
Earl Church
Ian Fowler
Phil Edwards
Lloyd Percival
Eugene Reimer
Mark Boswell from Brampton, Ont., is not only of Canada's greatest high jumpers, he is one of the most decorated athletes this country has ever seen stepping on the podium at almost every major international competition. Mark is an Olympic Games finalist, a double World Championship medalist (silver at the 1999 World Championships along with a Canadian record, bronze at the 2003 World Championships). In 1999 he won gold at the Pan American Games. Mark was the first Canadian to win gold at the IAAF World Junior Athletics Championships, a feat he accomplished in 1996. He still holds the Canadian outdoor record of 2.35-metres which he set in 1999 and equalled on two other occasions (2000 and 2002). Mark on his induction, "I am extremely thankful to receive this honour of being inducted into the Hall of Fame. I thank everyone that has supported me throughout the years along with all my sponsors and family. Believe it to achieve it is the motto I live by and I now believe in the future athletes as they will continue to achieve for us all."
Earl Church of Welland, Ont., coached able-bodied athletics in the Niagara region of Ontario until one of his athletes, Joanne (Bouw) Berdan, introduced him to para-athletics in 1989. Under Earl's tutelage Joanne became a three-time Paralympic Games medalist. Earl has coached at all levels over four decades and is recognized for his work in bringing credibility and experience acquired in able-bodied coaching to para-athletics. He was the first coach to represent Canada at the integrated World Championships and has coached at the 1992, 1996, 2000 and 2004 Paralympic Games. Earl still coaches for the Université de Moncton and Athlétisme Sud-Est South-East Athletics Club.
Jerome Drayton from Toronto, Ont., established the Canadian marathon record of 2 hours and 12 minutes in 1969, bettering it to 2 hours 10 minutes 9 seconds in 1975. At 44 years and running it is the longest standing uninterrupted Athletics Canada record. The annual Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon offers a prize bonus should an athlete lower the Canadian record, $1000 gets added to the prize purse for every year that Jerome's record stands. On three occasions (1969, 1975, 1976) Jerome won the Fukuoka marathon, an unofficial World Championship at the time. In 1977 he won the prestigious Boston Marathon and in 1978 took silver at the Commonwealth Games.
The great Phil Edwards (1907-1971) will be inducted in memoriam. Phil is Canada's most decorated Olympian in athletics winning five Olympic bronze medals. The versatile athlete from Montreal, Que., won Olympic medals in the 4×400-metres (1928), the 800-metres, 1500-metres and 4×400-metres at the 1932 Olympic Games and at the 1936 Games in the 800-metres. He was the first black man to win a medal at the Commonwealth Games.
Moncton's Ian Fowler will be inducted in the builder category of Athletics Canada's Hall of Fame. In his role as the city of Moncton's General Manager of Economic Development, Tourism and Culture he was instrumental in bringing to life Moncton Stadium and the 2010 World Junior Championships to Atlantic Canada. Ian was a key player in ensuring Moncton Stadium brought with it a lasting athletics legacy, playing a pivotal role in bringing the 2013 and 2014 Canadian Championships to Moncton. Since Moncton was awarded the World Junior Championships in 2006 registration in athletics and clubs have flourished along with Atlantic Canada's representation on national teams. Ian suddenly passed away in 2011.
World renowned in combined events, Diane Jones Konihowski of Canmore, Alta., represented Canada on national teams for an astounding 17 years (1967-1984). She held the season World leading score in the pentathlon on two occasions, in 1978 for outdoor competition and in indoor competition in 1975. A five-time Olympian, three as an athlete and twice played a role with the Canadian team as Mission Staff and Chef de Mission. Diane is the 1978 Commonwealth Games gold medalist and a two-time Pan American Games gold medalist (1975 and 1979) and Hypo-Meeting Champion in 1976 and 1977 which at the time, served as the unofficial World Championship. "I am always humbled to be recognized for my accomplishments in my sport of athletics and in the event of pentathlon," comments Diane. "I had an amazing 17 year career as a member of the national team and received great support from my Federation. I trained and competed with some of the best athletes and coaches in the world and to be named a member of Athletics Canada's Hall of Fame along with them is indeed an honour."
Lloyd Percival (1913-1974) from Toronto, Ont., the first modernized track and field coach in Canada, will join the Hall of Fame in memoriam. Lloyd began his coaching career through radio in 1941 when his program, Sports College on the Air, first hit airways. The program would eventually move to the CBC radio network which literally had him coaching an entire nation and inspired over a million listeners to join local clubs. Lloyd is the founder of the North Toronto Track and Field Club, now the Toronto Track and Field Club, and is widely credited as the first Ontario based coach, some say in all of Canada, to champion female athletics. He sent more athletes to international competitions than any other coach in his era. He introduced interval training in Ontario along with weight training, cross training, massage and strict diet, all concepts which were decades ahead of their time.
Chantal Petitclerc from Montreal, Que., is the only Canadian athlete to win Olympic, Paralympic and Commonwealth Games gold medals. Throughout her illustrious career she broke 22 World records (three of which still stand today), still holds four Paralympic Games records and won 21 Paralympic Games medals. Her Paralympic Games career stretched 1992-2008 capturing 10 gold medals between 2004 and 2008 alone. Her final Paralympic Games tally stands at 14 gold, 5 silver and 2 bronze. "I am thrilled about being named as part of Athletics Canada's Hall of Fame", explains an excited Chantal, "Looking back at a rich athletics history in Canada, there are so many legends and even inspirations already part of this Hall of Fame. Knowing I will have my place among them is truly a great honour."
Eugene Reimer (1940-2008) of Abbotsford, B.C., will join the Hall of Fame in memoriam. Eugene's successful career was highlighted with 50 national medals, 22 international medals and ten Paralympic medals between 1968 and 1980. He competed in many different events winning Paralympic medals in the club throw, discus throw, javelin, pentathlon, and 4×60-metres open relay. In 1972 he won gold medals and recorded World records in the discus and pentathlon. Eugene continued to be an ambassador for people with physical disabilities right up until his passing. He was an active member in helping promote the Vancouver 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Games' bids.
Canadian indoor, outdoor and junior decathlon record holder Michael Smith of Calgary, Alta., will join the Hall of Fame in the athlete category. Michael was ranked in the World top ten for an amazing ten years in a row between 1989 and 1998. A three-time Olympian, he was chosen as the opening ceremonies flag bearer for the 1992 Olympic Games. Michael stepped on the World Championship podium on two occasions winning silver in 1991 and bronze in 1995. The three-time Commonwealth Games medalist was the first North American to finish first at the prestigious Hypo-Meeting, a feat he repeated in 1996. "I am very proud to be part of the class of 2013. It was a wonderful opportunity to represent my country at a world class level and a true honour to be recognized for my accomplishments." Michael adds; "Athletics was a wonderful training ground for life and I have taken many of the lessons I learned while training and competing and utilized them in life after sport. It is also very exciting for me to watch the new generation of young and talented Canadian athletes make their mark on the global scene in the sport that I love." Today Michael works as an investment advisor and a part time television analyst for both CBC and CTV covering national and international athletics competitions.
Coinciding with the Canadian Track and Field Championships and World Trials in Moncton, New Brunswick June 20-23, the class of 2013 will officially be enriched to Athletics Canada's Hall of Fame on Thursday June 20 at the Delta Beauséjour. Reception will begin at 6:00pm followed by the induction banquet and dinner at 7:00pm.

Protecting the Rights of Injured Workers
View Practice Areas
Workers' Compensation Disfigurement Benefits
Much like benefits paid to workers who injure arms, legs or fingers, Colorado law provides benefits for those who suffer scarring or disfigurement due to on-the-job injuries or occupational diseases. Injured workers may be compensated for serious scars and permanent disfigurement to the head, face and other parts of the body normally exposed to public view. Such benefits are determined by the severity and visibility of the injury.
Under Colorado law, a scar or other deformity is permanent if it exists for at least six months after the injury or a physician determines that worker's condition has reached maximum improvement. Colorado law also defines the term "public view" as being visible on the worker's body when he or she wears a swimsuit.
An injured worker may request a disfigurement award from his or her employer or the insurer. If there is no agreement on a payment, the worker may submit a request to the Office of Administrative Courts to have an administrative law judge to review the case and issue an award. By statute, injured workers can claim the following benefits for injuries occurring during the following dates:
Injuries occurring before July 1, 2007: $2000
Injuries occurring after July 1, 2007: $4000
Injured workers may now claim up to $8000 in disfigurement benefits for extensive facial scars or facial burns, extensive body scars or burns, as well as for amputated limbs. Disfigurement awards may increase each year to adjust for inflation. If you have questions about disfigurement benefits, contact an experienced workers' compensation attorney.

Map fans are rushing to a Dorset village as all three 'norths' converge on one line for first time in history
The i 02/11/2022 David Parsley
© Provided by The i The historic triple alignment of all three 'norths"' made landfall at the little village of Langton Matravers in Dorset on Wednesday (Photo: Ordnance Survey)
A small village in Dorset has made map reading history and become the first place where true, magnetic and grid north have met at a single point.
Early on Wednesday morning mapping organisation Ordnance Survey (OS) confirmed the historic triple alignment had made landfall in Langton Matravers, near Swanage.
It will stay converged for three and a half years as it travels through different parts of the UK ending with what cartographers are calling "the special line" making its last stop in Great Britain at Fraserburgh, around July 2026.
According to OS it is the first time compasses will point to all three measures of north in history.
The event, which is being compared to a full solar eclipse, means grid north, true north and magnetic north are now forming one line from the Dorset village.
Map fans have been travelling to the precise OS grid reference of SZ 00000 76863 to point their compass needles at all three 'norths' at the same time and experience the once in a lifetime occurrence for themselves.
Grid north is the blue line on an OS map that either points directly to, or near to the North Pole, whereas true north is the direction of the lines of longitude that all converge at the North Pole.
Across OS maps true north varies from grid north as it reflects the curve of the earth, except on one grid north line, which aligns with longitude 2 degrees west of the zero Greenwich meridian line. Anywhere on this special line, grid north and true north align.
Magnetic north marks the northward line to the magnetic North Pole. The position of the magnetic North Pole and the direction of magnetic north moves continually due to natural changes in the Earth's magnetic field.
After always being to the west of grid north in Great Britain the last few years have seen magnetic north move to the other side of grid north.
The change started in 2014 at the very tip of Cornwall and is slowly moving west to east across the country. It has now reached the 'special line' and converged with the other two 'norths' for the first time in mapping history.
After making landfall at Langton Matravers, the triple alignment will pass northwards through Poole by Christmas and then Chippenham and Birmingham before reaching Hebden Bridge in Yorkshire in August 2024.
It will then pass though the Pennines before leaving the English coast at Berwick-Upon-Tweed a year later in August 2025 and it does not hit land again until around May 2026 at Drums, just south of Newburgh in Scotland.
After passing through Mintlaw its last stop is Fraserburgh, around July 2026.
Mark Greaves, Earth Measurement Expert at Ordnance Survey, told i: "It is no exaggeration to say that this is a one-off event that has never happened before. Magnetic north moves slowly so it is likely going to be several hundred years before this alignment comes around again.
"This triple alignment is an interesting quirk of our national mapping and the natural geophysical processes that drive the changing magnetic field.
"But for navigators the same rules will apply whether they are simply on a trek or a walk or flying planes or navigating ships at the other end of the spectrum. They will always have to take account of the variation between magnetic north from a compass and grid (or true) north on a map."
Map readers are taught to know the difference when navigating with a compass between magnetic north and grid north, it is also crucial for navigating in aviation and shipping.
But it would not make much of a difference to map reading for the duration of alignment, "just make it slightly easier," Mr Greaves said.
As part of its long-running collaboration with OS, the geomagnetism team at the British Geological Survey (BGS) has made detailed measurements of the magnetic field at 40 sites around the UK.
These enable scientists to create high-resolution maps and to make accurate forecasts of the changing declination angle.
Dr Susan Macmillan, of the BGS said: "This is a once in a lifetime occurrence. Due to the unpredictability of the magnetic field on long timescales it's not possible to say when the alignment of the three norths will happen again."

WE MEAN NO Disrespect to CT AG Jepsen and CT Insurance Commish Mr. Sullivan. They WERE DEALT THESE HANDS and had NO hand in the initiation of any of these wasteful actions. and we wish them all the best as the AG Office & States attorney office has some very well respected by us individuals that understand activism is NOT always right and enabling it is also a part of the problem.
