301 http status code means that the requested resource has been permanently moved to a new URL. All future requests should use the new address.
The browser will automatically redirect the user to the new address, and search engines will update their indexes.
200 http status code is a standard successful HTTP server response. It means that the client’s request (e.g., from a browser) was successfully processed, and the server is delivering the requested data.
The user receives content without errors, and the page or application functions properly. If Code 200 is accompanied by data, the browser or program processes and displays it to the user.

It's been sitting in the rain all that time. They say their policy is that their drivers place packages where they think it will be most secure. Obviously they have VERY POOR JUDGEMENT. DO NOT USE FEDEX! Resolution: They wouldn't take a claim from me but after talking with their customer service I insisted on something to prove I called them. They gave me a case number. When the shipper called them, they wouldn't take the claim! I gave the shipper the case number and FedEx FINALLY accepted the claim. FedEx picked up the package from me. I had carefully repacked it in another DRY box with extra packing material and the old box in a plastic bag. Then I received a letter in the mail from FedEx telling me that the claim was rejected because of insufficient evidence. The shipper sent me a new component via USPS Priority Mail with no problem. Then FedEx RETURNED the wet package to me, in my packing, NEVER OPENED! They didn't even look at it! Then I received a check in the mail from FedEx for an amount LESS than I paid (this should have gone to the shipper that filed the claim, not me!) I endorsed the check and forwarded it to the shipper. Boy is FedEx screwed up! This isn't the first time they have demonstrated their total lack of common sense. Take the time they said they delivered a lot of 5 packages here when they had delivered NONE. Then after much complaining they delivered 3 of the 5 on the following Saturday. Then they showed the WRONG 3 delivered! They FINALLY did get them all delivered 4 days late. FEDEX SUCKS! If you must ship using FedEx, expect the worst of all customer service! Calling Customer Service does NO GOOD. Only the shipper can file a claim.

It's positively TERRIBLE! When the uric acid levels rise too high in the body it begins to precipitate out as needle like crystals in the joints. These crystals are responsible for your pain. There is an old but effective treatment for gout and it is a drug called <a href="http://www.rxlist.com/cgi/generic2/colch.htm" target="_blank">colchicine</a>. The problem with colchicine is the treatment prescribed by most doctors. Most of them tell you to take one tablet an hour until you either get relief or get sick. <font color="#FF0000"><b>DO NOT DO THIS!</b></font> You will get sick as a dog and it's <font color="#FF0000"><b>VERY</b></font> dangerous. An effective cautious treatment is to take one pill, wait 12 hours, take another and repeat this every 12 hours until you begin to get relief. Usually you will begin to get relief within 24 hours and the worst you usually experience is a little diarrhea. My own personal experience has been that I can take one pill every other day or so to lower the uric acid levels to help prevent an onset of gout. I take Allopurinol daily but at times I think you need a little more help. Never take colchicine without discussing this treatment with your doctor.
