At present there is no cure for MS, but management of the disease
includes various pharmacological strategies such as drug treatments to
speed up the clinical improvement from relapses, medications that reduce
the risk of further relapses (commonly known as disease modifying
therapies) and therapies that alleviate and improve various symptoms. In
addition to these drugs, successful management of MS also includes a
healthy diet, exercise and rehabilitation.
Disease modifying drugs can instead reduce the frequency
and severity of relapses. Whether any of these drugs slow down the rate
of disability in the long term is not yet clear and is a current focus
of research. Early stage clinical trials focus on safety of new
compounds, while late stage trials focus on efficacy and identifying
patient populations that may benefit most from particular treatments.
Several new oral drugs are currently being tested in late stage clinical
trials and one of them has become recently available. As more genomic
data becomes available, individual targeting of therapies will become an
exciting research area for the future.
MS is associated with a range of symptoms making their management
important but challenging. A multidisciplinary approach is vital to
improving quality of life and management strategies can involve a
combination of drug treatments and rehabilitation. While some symptoms
such as bladder issues respond well to current medications, improving
treatments in more difficult areas such as fatigue and cognition are
research challenges for the future.
Complementary and alternative therapies are treatments that
generally fall outside the realm of conventional medicines. Current
areas of MS research focus on the efficacy of a diverse range of
treatments from cannabis to vitamin supplements and yoga to acupuncture.
Studies suggest that these therapies are used by a large proportion of
people with MS and often used alongside conventional medication.

Graduate Assistantships
Teaching Assistantships
The majority of our graduate student's are employed as Teaching Assistantships for 240 hrs/year, earning an average of $7,536/year. The Graduate Student Teaching/Research Assistantship is arranged by the graduate student's Graduate Program Director and can include Teaching Assistant, Marker-Grader, Course Coordinator and/or Lab Demonstrator duties. The Graduate Student Teaching Assistantship is employment and is therefore processed through the Human Resource contract system in accordance with the CUPE 4207 Collective Agreement. See www.brocku.ca/hr/labour/ for details. Students are paid bi-weekly via direct bank deposit for the duration specified in the contract. Graduate Student Teaching Assistantships are considered an integral component of graduate student training and experience for the majority of our graduate programs. This funding component is coordinated and determined by the graduate program.
Research Assistantships
A Research Assistantship is arranged through a contract of employment for a specified hourly wage, number of hours, period of time, and for specific work. The work outlined in the Research Assistantship contract is most often outside the scope of the graduate student's own research. A Research Assistantship is employment and is therefore processed through the Human Resource contract system. Graduate students can undertake a contract research assistantship with their own supervisor or with another faculty member. A research assistantship could be undertaken in addition to the receipt of a research fellowship. Students are paid bi- weekly via direct bank deposit for the duration specified in the contract. The typical amount of a Research Assistant contract varies and is determined by the faculty researcher.
Full-time graduate students must monitor their hours of commitment from any employment work on campus so as to not to exceed an average of 10 hours per week over the course of the academic term. On-campus employment contracts are the responsibility of the graduate program and the Human Resources department of the University.
Extra TA/RA Hours
Graduate students who wish to accept contracts for on campus work (e.g. TA or RA hours) that are above 120 hours per term must first seek and obtain the approval of their Supervisor (if applicable) and their Graduate Program Director. The completed Request for Approval of Extra On-Campus Employment Hours form is then submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies for Dean of Graduate Studies approval.

Park City Native and Whole Athlete/Specialized racer
Keegan Swenson is the reigning 15-16 year-old national XC champion. This season
is his first with the Whole Athlete squad and his first in the 17-18 category.
Keegan will be representing his team and the United States throughout the 2011
season and he will be posting a weekly blog on MTBRaceNews.com.
Keegan is now 3 for 3 at Pro XCT events this season.
Read about his recent win at the Sea Otter Classic in California.
was my first trip ever to Sea Otter, and I was pretty excited to get
down there and see what it's all about.
got down to Laguna Seca on Wednesday, I got to explore the venue a little and
it was pretty sweet. On Thursday, I got to pick up my new ENVE 29er XC wheels, which
are so sweet and I was way stoked to race on them for the first time.
then went and pre-road, the course wasn't bad. Lots of fast gravel
roads, sand, some singletrack and quite a bit of climbing. And the
legs didn't feel to bad, so that was a plus.
race (on friday) started 1:30 pm, so we had a bunch of time to sleep in, eat
and hydrate, which was nice for a change. After
getting a solid warm up I got over to the start line with the rest of my Whole
Athlete teammates.
race started off super slow....as no one wanted to pull on
the paved race track. There were a few crashes (luckily avoided!) Then eventually
a fellow Utard (Noah Tally) went off the front and attacked, I jumped on his
were the first ones to the dirt along with Tony and Max right on my wheel. I
began to pour it on, on the first few rollers and opened up a small gap, which
was nice going into the gnarly ruts. I could pick the fastest and safest line
where everyone else had to follow wheels.
I got to the singletrack I tried to just ride fast and smart. The singlespeeders
were very nice about letting me pass on the descent (thanks
guys!). Then after some more gravel road and singletrack there
was another gnarly rut section that I forgot the line in and put my
front wheel directly into the hub-deep rut, I road the stem for a few
seconds then somehow made my way back onto the saddle and pedals.
was scary. Then I came to the next major climb, I settled into a good rhythm
and just kept on going. By then I was almost done with my bottle
and was glad to be able to grab a fresh one from the feed zone a
few miles down the road, thanks Dave!
then made my way through the shady singletrack, which was a nice break from the
sun and the wind. After
some fun on the singletrack I approached the final climb to the top.
The wind was crazy up on the ridge and I was getting blown all over
the place, so I just tried to settle in and get through it.
I got to the top and saw my buddy Nick Newcomb who gave me some "words of
encouragement" to finish it off. Once at the very top it
was just a matter of making it to the finish through some grassy turns!
was great to stand on the podium with ONLY Whole Athlete- Specialized
up there this time! Good job to all the Whole Athletes
out there, everyone rode awesome. Also, thanks to Dario for putting
together another super fun and successful trip! And Myron if your
reading this....I will always have dental floss!

Supporters of North Carolina House Speaker Thom Tillis have formed an independent committee to support his potential U.S. Senate bid next year.
Organizers of the "Grow NC Strong" organization said Friday they filed paperwork with the Federal Election Commission this week to create the political action committee. The super PAC, which could be used to fund television ads, can raise and spend unlimited funds to support Tillis should he get in the race to challenge Democratic Sen. Kay Hagan. A super PAC must be separate from a campaign committee and can't work in tandem with a candidate.
Republicans Phil Berger, the N.C. Senate leader, and Congresswoman Renee Ellmers also may enter the race.
Ellmers, asked if she may enter the race by Newsmax, said, "We are just about at that time where we have to sit down and make that decision.
"I truly, honestly am not there just yet. And now, with as much as I'm doing in the House, my heart is kind of there in the House. It's a difficult decision to make.
"But I will tell you that it is a winnable seat. And I'm ready to do it if it comes forward that that's what I should do. But at the same time, if not, and my place is to stay in the House, then what I want to do is support whatever candidate moves forward."
Tillis, a Mecklenburg County business consultant, told The Associated Press on Thursday he planned to spend the holiday weekend talking with family about the race. He's already talked with friends and supporters across the state about getting in and has visited Republicans in Washington.
"This is about beating Kay Hagan ... and making sure we have two strong voices in Washington trying solve problems," Tillis said, referring to GOP Sen. Richard Burr.
Only one Republican — physician and tea party favorite Greg Brannon of Cary — has publicly announced a candidacy. A GOP primary would be in May 2014.
"Grow NC Strong" is led by retired attorney and CEO Champ Mitchell of New Bern. Mitchell and another organization leader — Doyle Parrish of Raleigh — were elected by the state House to the UNC Board of Governors in March.
Tillis "proves every day in Raleigh that his private sector experience equipped him perfectly for the difficult job of protecting priorities while balancing a budget," Parrish said in a release.
Also connected to the super PAC is political consultant Michael Luethy, a former policy adviser to Tillis during his first term as speaker.

Happy 32nd birthday Arthur Darvill! (june 17th, 1982)
Last night's Glamour Women of the Year Awards were an evening of celebration for past and present stars of Doctor Who as Jenna Coleman and Billie Piper both picked up prizes for their acting.
Coleman – who returns as Clara Oswald in the forthcoming series, opposite Peter Capaldi's new Doctor – collected her award for UK TV actress from former co-star Matt Smith who departed the series last Christmas.
Piper – who joined the pair in November's 50th anniversary special – attended the ceremony with her husband Lawrence Fox and was honoured with the theatre actress award.
The ceremony, which honours women across the industry, were attended by acting royalty Samuel L Jackson, Ryan Reynolds and Helen Mirren, who picked up the icon award and drew gasps from the audience with her expletive-ridden speech. [x]

Music Box Theatre
1414 Fifth Avenue,
2 people favorited this theater
Opened in 1928, the Music Box Theatre was torn down in 1987.
Recent comments (view all 9 comments)
The Music Box Theatre seated 846 people.
The Music Box was one of Seattle's premier theaters. Equipped for 70mm, it had a massive screen that wonderfully overwhelmed the theater. I saw "Days of Thunder" in 70mm here in 1978 and it was stunning!
There is part of the Music Box installed in the lobby of the City Centre building in downtown Seattle. It is a large ornamental carved stone arch that once graced the front of the building above the marquee. There were 3 of these arches and they contained windows. Don't know what happened to the other 2, probably purchased during demolition.
Some pictures of the Music Box can be seen here:
View link
The Music Box Theatre was designed by architect Henry Bittman. Previously an engineer, in which capacity he worked with architect Henderson Ryan on the innovative 1914 design for the Liberty Theatre, Bittman went on to gain an architect's licence in 1923 and, in addition to the Music Box, designed at least two other theatres in Seattle, the surviving Embassy Theatre of 1926, and the Art Deco Roosevelt Theatre, aka Pike Street Theatre and Town Theatre, which opened in 1933 and has been demolished.
Bittman was a master of terra-cotta decoration, and used it on numerous Seattle buildings including and the one he designed for the Fraternal Order of Eagles. The Eagles' building was renovated in the 1990s as a home for the ACT theater company. This was an appropriate use for the building, as the club had been founded by six Seattle theater owners, including John Cort, who went on the become a leading impresario in New York.
Days of Thunder came out in 1990, three years after the Music Box was demolished. You couldn't have seen it there in 1978.
droben must have been thinking of "Days of Heaven," which opened at the Music Box in mid-October, 1978. This was one of the few theaters showing the 70mm version of the movie.
Grand opening ad from August 2nd, 1928 is in the photo section.
Yes the Music Box indeed had a massive wide screen. The original proscenium must have been changed to fit it out. I saw Days Of Heaven also at the Cinerama in a Cinerama style film process or a special lense that was also dramatic. What a great visual treat that film is when viewed that way. Must have been great at The Music Box.

Seen&Scene: Monocle Magazine Says Hello Hong Kong!
The Monocle Shop in Hong Kong recently entertained friends and family of Monocle Magazine via a block party, hosted by Editor-in-Chief Tyler Brule, Advertising Director, Anders Braso, and Hong Kong's newest bureau chief, Aisha Speirs. Brule and the editorial team were recently in town for a stopover in their grand APAC tour of the region.
We were fortunate to catch the nice event with my friend, Natasha. It gave a chance for Nat and I to bond as well since she and I usually have very busy schedules.
The well attended event featured the best and brightest from Hong Kong's creative community, as well as attendees within the hospitality and news media sectors as well.
Guests were able to mingle, shop, eat, drink, and check out the bureau office of Monocle Magazine, defined by minimalist and clean interiors, and plenty of past publications, gift goodies, and paper fans with logos that keep everything "on brand".
Below is the special Chinese New Year gift set.
Monocle Hong Kong's Julie, kept the guest engaged and entertained.
Amazing chinese pork baos were provided by Chef Mai Chow and her new business venture, Little Bao. I mentioned Little Bao before on the blog when I discovered it first via Island East Markets late last year.
A couple of gents enjoying Little Baos.
We also bumped into artist, Rocky, videographer, Karim, and architect and lecturer, Riyad.
Meeting for the first time were representatives from The Upper House, Marcel and a self-proclaimed Wanderlister+ reader and fan, Kristina.
Also in attendance, Moustache/Salon No.10's Alex, Delstore's Derrick Leung, with new bureau chief, Aisha.
Long time no see, Khanh-Linh!
The Chaiwanese also said hi, Jehan and Zon!
Plus check out Jehan's amazing bag designed and hand-made by Zon herself. Zon remember, I am your first order!
This was a surprise. Harold was back from Taiwan for a short visit. Also I havent seen Creative City's Louise for a long time. Great to see both of these friends here.
Also in tow, my pals, amazing designer RonWan and fashion critic, Daniel.
It was great to bump into my cousin, Carina and her colleague Noriko, who both work Hyatt in Asia.
I was tempted to get on this mic and start my own Monocle24 radio show.
Overall it was great fun. Natasha and I were able to finish off the afternoon with some private beer and gossip next door at Ted's Lookout. I really love the Star Street neighborhood. It's so chic.
Thanks so much Monocle Magazine for a great afternoon of shopping, chat, and nibbles.
Check out the last time we partied at Monocle here, when they named Hong Kong the 13th Most Livable City in 2012.

The Lives of Others
Hungary has made a hard turn to the political right, but Holocaust survivor Karl Pfeifer, who in three decades of journalism has assailed Hungarian communists and Austrian fascists, refuses to let anti-Semitism return unchecked
In November 1942, shortly before departing on a kindertransport headed for Palestine, Pfeifer asked his uncle why he wouldn't sell his lumber business. "Haven't you heard that Jews are being burned in gas ovens in Poland?" Pfeifer asked.
"What?" his uncle replied. "Where did you hear that?"
Pfeifer said that the source of the information was the BBC, but it was actually his comrades in Hashomer Hatzair who had told him. Regardless, this revelation had little effect on his uncle, who replied that he bad been a decorated officer in the Austro-Hungarian army during World War I and that such things could never happen to patriotic Jewish Hungarians. "You're an adult," Pfeifer responded. "You have to decide for yourself." Pfeifer's uncle and his family, including his wife, two sons, daughter, son-in-law, and grandchild would be deported to Auschwitz. Only his uncle's son-in-law survived.
After joining the Palmach and fighting in the 1948 Israeli war of independence, Pfeifer had an itinerant, 30-year career working in the shipping and hotel industries. After the fall of the Soviet Union, he continued his journalism career but turned his attentions from Hungary to Austria, where his anti-fascist credentials proved useful. Writing for newspapers, reporting for Kol Israel International radio, and appearing on television, Pfeifer became a leading figure in the campaign to correct the historical misperception that most Austrians continued to hold about their nation's innocence during World War II and to reconcile that myth with its deep complicity in the Holocaust. "For the Austrian political establishment, the argument was a simple one: from 1938 to 1945 Austria did not even exist," Pfeifer has written. "Thus Austrians could not be held responsible for what happened to their Jewish compatriots and only the Germans were to blame for the Holocaust. Quod Erat Demonstrandum." Austria's continuing inability to come to terms with the nation's role in the crimes of the Third Reich became evident in the rise of a man who would become a Pfeifer nemesis, Jörg Haider, the late leader of the far-right Freedom Party.
In 1995, Pfeifer published a review in Die Gemeinde of a Freedom Party "yearbook," accusing it of possessing "Nazi tones." More than half of Pfeifer's article consisted of quotations from an article written by an Austrian academic named Werner Pfeifenberger, who alleged that Germany had not started World War II because "in 1933 Judea had already declared war on all of Germany." Pfeifenberger had written that "this world war" started by Jews "is by far not yet over" and cited as evidence "the hate tirades of the slander campaign against Kurt Waldheim," the former United Nations secretary general who was elected president of Austria in 1986 despite his having participated in Nazi atrocities. Pfeifenberger sued Pfeifer for libel and lost.
In 1999, the Freedom Party finished second in nationwide legislative elections, with 27 percent of the vote. At a press conference in which Haider announced that he would join a coalition government, a move that eventually led the European Union to impose sanctions on Austria and Israel to recall its ambassador, Pfeifer directly confronted Haider. Citing Haider's association with a wide variety of Holocaust deniers and Nazi enthusiasts, Pfeifer asked, "What kind of credibility do you have if you are unable to cut ties to these people?" By chance, two weeks later, the Vienna Public Prosecutor's office announced that it would press charges against Pfeifenberger for violating the country's National Socialism Prohibition Act for the claims made in his 1995 article. On May 13, 2000, days before he was to stand trial, Pfeifenberger committed suicide.
The following month, a far-right Vienna magazine accused Pfeifer of being part of a 10-man conspiracy that "opened up a man hunt, which was to result in the death of the hunted." Pfeifer sued the paper for defamation, and he initially won in a Viennese court. The magazine appealed the verdict to Austria's highest tribunal, however, which overruled the earlier decision. One justice on the three-judge panel, Doris Trieb, pointed her finger at Pfeifer while telling him that he bore "moral" responsibility for Pfeifenberger's suicide.
In 2003, Pfeifer brought the case before the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg, France. Four years later, in a landmark decision, the Strasbourg panel ruled against the Austrian government, finding that "the reasons advanced by the domestic courts for protecting freedom of expression outweighed the right of the applicant to have his reputation safeguarded." The European Court ordered the government of Austria to award Pfeifer a settlement of 5,000 euros in damages and 10,000 euros for legal expenses. "It was hard enough to stand three years in Austrian courts because I did not believe that 'the Jews declared war in 1933 on Germany,' " Pfeifer told Haaretz at the time. "But then to see Dr. Trieb point her finger at me and accuse me of being responsible 'only morally' for a man's suicide was even harder."
In the nationwide Hungarian elections held in April of last year, the right-wing Fidesz Party of Viktor Orbán won a landslide victory: Its 53 percent of the popular vote, due to the country's electoral system, translated into two-thirds of the seats in parliament. The previous Socialist government, which had ruled for eight years, had been tainted by countless scandals, and its incompetence was largely blamed for the country's being one of the hardest hit by the 2008 economic crisis, during which it was forced to borrow $25 billion from the International Monetary Fund. With Fidesz's overwhelming victory, Hungary became the first country in Central Europe since the breakup of the Soviet Union to be governed by a single party not in coalition.
Since taking power, Orbán—who first earned fame in Hungary as a student activist when he gave a speech in 1989 calling for the withdrawal of Soviet troops from his country—has introduced a series of nationalistic and centralizing measures that have earned international opprobrium as signs of creeping authoritarianism. The first was his decision to grant passports to ethnic Hungarians who are citizens of other countries—a sop to those within Hungary who continue to view the 90-year-old Treaty of Trianon with resentment and shame, and a major provocation to neighbors, like Slovakia, where sizable Hungarian minorities reside. In June, the speaker of the Hungarian parliament said that the use of arms to settle a border dispute in the 1990s with Slovakia would have been justified.
In January, Orbán's government launched what many claimed was a politically motivated investigation of five Hungarian academics for the misuse of research funds. The academics, including the Jewish philosopher Agnes Heller, are all vocal critics of the Fidesz party and were accused of misappropriating portions of the $2 million in government money they had received in support of various research projects. Attacks in the right-wing press have taken on an anti-intellectual tone, demanding to know, for instance, why one of the researchers used funds for new translations of Plato when the works had already been translated into Hungarian.

Recent assaults and several stabbings have Downtown Seattle businesses and residents concerned.
As the heart of the city's retail and tourism core, many fear an increase in low-level crime will keep visitors away and impact businesses.
"All the time, we have people fighting in the store; we have people fighting in the street," said Anthony Gannuncio, an employee at Joes Mart.
"People are scared," said Ann McKinney, who lives in the area.
While walking around outside, McKinney says panhandlers, bums and criminal activity is everywhere.
"No parent wants their child to be walking in Downtown Seattle and seeing someone shooting dope in an alley," she said.
"Tourists aren't going to want to come, businesses will shut down or lose money," said Gannuncio.
"It's a little sketch. We definitely stay on direct routes to the hotel versus venturing off," said Winena Wolf, who's visiting with her family from Portland.
According to the store employee, police officers do the best they can.
"Cops aren't always convenient in the area, we have to be our own security," he said.
Gannuncio has chased down robbers and most recently a purse snatcher. He refers to his action as "Community Security."
"I'm a big guy and I keep them at bay," he said.
While places like the Public Market hire private security around the clock, businesses and residents want a solution from the city.
McKinney says crime and disorder is becoming too common.
"It's just heartbreaking, it's heart breaking," she said.
Seattle Mayoral Candidates have taken up the issue. Some are calling for the hire of 250 more officers, another believes a solution is moving shelters and social service agencies out of downtown.

Overwhelmingly known as "The Smart Cousin" Luke Duke, on the '70s TV show The Dukes of Hazard, Tom Wopat has also worked hard at establishing himself in the musical theater community. Born on a small dairy farm in Lodi, WI, Wopat began singing and dancing in school musicals when he was 12 years old. Upon graduating high school, he enrolled at the University of Wisconsin in Madison to study music, and balanced his time between productions of West Side Story, Jesus Christ, Superstar, and South Pacific, while performing in a local rock band. Upon moving to New York City in 1977, he immersed himself in Broadway and off-Broadway productions, leading to bigger and better opportunities including an audition in California for a Georgia-based action-adventure TV show. The show ran for seven seasons allowing Wopat plenty of time both on camera and behind it (the actor also directed five shows in the later seasons).
After the Duke boys closed up shop, he split his time between fronting the country-rock act the North Hollywood All-Stars and performing in musicals. In 1987 he decided to live a dual life, spending half the year in Los Angeles working in TV and on stage, and half the year in Nashville writing and releasing country albums. The late '90s found Wopat acting on the critically acclaimed TV show Cybil, appearing on-stage in a touring production of Annie Get Your Gun, and in 2000 he released the standards album The Still of the Night on Angel Records. ~ Zac Johnson, Rovi

Follow us on Twitter @AJCBiz
Instagram is now used by more than 100 million people each month, co-founder Kevin Systrom disclosed on the photo-sharing site Tuesday.
In a blog, Systrom recalled the moment in 2010 when he and co-founder Mike Krieger realized "the power of images to connect people to what was happening in the world around them."
It was in chilly October and the Stanford University grads, in overcoats, were huddled in an office on a San Francisco Bay pier. As they worked on code on their laptops, they could hear fans in the distance cheering as the Giants faced the Philadelphia Phillies in the National League Championship Series. As Systrom recalls:
"While we may only have had a few thousand people around the world using Instagram that night, we had a sense that maybe through Instagram we could tune in to what was happening just a few steps away. With a few quick commands at his terminal, my co-founder Mike's screen filled with images of the game: the bullpen, dugout, concession stands, cheering fans and a panoramic view from somewhere up high. In a matter of hours, the people in that stadium had recorded moments in time through Instagram and allowed us to tune into an event while we sat a half a mile away, working—winter coats and all.
The rest was picture perfect. The company capitalized on its ability to allow users to upload mobile photos quickly, improve the quality of the photos through the use of filters,and then share them freely on multiple platforms.
Last April, Facebook acquired Instagram in a cash and stock deal valued at about $1 billion. Wired.com reported at the time that Systrom's 40 percent stake in Instagram netted him $400 million and Krieger's 10 percent stake got him around $100 million.
Not a bad payout considering a year and a half earlier they were huddled in overcoats on a San Francisco Bay pier, listening to baseball cheers in the distance.
Are you among the millions hooked on Instagram?

Samsung announces Galaxy Camera 2 Android-powered point-and-shoot
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Cameras, Handhelds, Wireless / WiFi
A little over a year ago, Samsung released the Galaxy Camera, a mash-up of Android and a point-and-shoot (see our Samsung Galaxy Camera video review.) Today, the company is announcing Galaxy Camera 2, a more refined version that's been tweaked to highlight the things customers loved most about the original.
As expected, the Galaxy Camera 2 is faster and more powerful, sporting a quad-core 1.6 GHz processor (up from the dual-core 1.4 GHz chip found in the original) and 2 GB RAM (similar to the original.) Samsung has also increased the battery capacity from 1650 mAh to 2000 mAh, almost a 33% increase.

Bleeding Edge TV 466: Samsung Galaxy Camera review
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Cameras, Features, Google, Handhelds, Podcasts, Product Reviews, Videocasts, Videos
We review the Samsung Galaxy Camera in this episode, the Android-powered point-and-shoot that joins the Galaxy line. Being a full-featured Android device, the Galaxy Camera functions both as a smartphone (without the phone part, so maybe, a really small tablet) and a full-fledged point-and-shoot camera. We like the form factor when taking images, and the display is large, bright, crisp, and clear at 4.77-inches Super Clear Touch. You can pick up the Galaxy Camera on Amazon.

Vertical videos are bad. Stop it.
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Cameras, Cell Phones, Videos
We're sure you've witnessed it in the past. You may have even done it yourself. Even worse, you may still do it. Vertical Video Syndrome, or VVS. Shooting videos on your smartphone vertically used to be a common annoyance that has, thankfully, been on the decline as people realize just how absolutely ridiculous the end result looks when trying to view the content on anything other than the smartphone itself. There are still some stragglers out there though, and if you know any, point them to the video that we've embedded after the break. It should drive the point home. Please, rotate your smartphone.

Women are Getting More Disgusting
Homeschool Mom: Aren't men supposed to be the disgusting ones? What's gotten into women?
This last year has brought to the forefront a mounting and frightening glut of disgusting women. Whether teachers in the back of steamy cars having sex with thirteen-year-old boys, young mothers killing their children, and now with the Sandra Cantu case, women who rape and murder, women have reached lows that were usually only sunk to by men. There was a time when we could point our manicured fingers at men and say, "Well at least we aren't depraved like you." Can't say that anymore, girls. We have crashed through the glass basement of bad behavior and now we stand, if not equal in numbers with men who are destructive, lascivious, and totally lacking in self-control, then equal in depravity. Hurrah!!!
I for one have had it. I prefer the repressive restraints of the 1950s. Give me some pumps and an apron, baby, because at least the neighbor's children will be safe. Women used to be the gentler sex, the noble ones restraining the baser instincts of the more instinct-driven and uncivilized male. When you look at Abigail Adams, the brilliant and soft-spoken and wholesome wife of our second president, you see the epitome of womanly courage. She protected her children and continued to run their farm while her husband was off starting a country. He turned to her for encouragement and sage wisdom. She wasn't getting hot and heavy with John Quincy's friends or stalking the neighborhood girls.
The more I read about teen girls sending pictures of themselves over the Internet and cheerleaders having brawls, the more I encourage my girls to dress in Keds and capris and wear one-piece bathing suits. It's time to scrub our girl's faces and replace their cell phones with biographies about Eleanor Roosevelt or Abigail Adams. I pray my girls will be wholesome girls next door that will blush at bad language and frown at rude behavior, and I will attempt to regain some of that modesty and self-restraint myself. Just call me the Don Quixote of maidenly airs and virtues, and I will "Dream the Impossible Dream."
|Homeschool Mom: Pam Heilman is a California Credentialed Teacher who once won some body lotion in a raffle at the Y. She is currently residing in Southern California with her husband Eric, and homeschools their three children.
I agree. I too, want both of my children (boy and girl) to lead "wholesome " lifes. Society in general seems to be sinking to a new low and lacking empathy.
I agree as well. Although at the moment we do not have girls, we do have two boys. My wife and I will be teaching them the Eleanor Roosevelt and Abigail Adams types are the "desirable" ones in spite of what culture may tell them.
These are the smartest words I've read in years. I could not agree with you more.
THANK YOU!!! as a young college student, i have been craving words like these! Ladies, it's time for us to stand up, and reclaim ourselves :)
well, I'm not trying to stick up for the murdress.. but I am going to tell you that after being on antidepressants & getting off of them.. I felt strange on them..like they were controlling my mind, which they do that, BUT I felt like a zombie also, so I TOLD my doctor I wanted off of all my antidepressants.. & I have a mood disorder, & I refuse to go on those meds too. Just deal with my mood swings I do, I generally go into hiding. I stay in my apt until I'm not going to lash out at someone… I don't feel that having doctors prescribe medications is always proper..
most just write the prescription & never recheck how your doing..
Huckaby LOOKS drugged up.. to me..
You know women have always done this, just like men have. It is an illusion that they didn't. I mean when the men were off having affairs who do you think they were having sex with? Do you not remember Bonnie and Clyde? Or Londons Cheapside?
History has a way to distorting perspective, for one you often had to be rich to get a good historical footprint left behind. Paintings were expensive and were meant to last forever so of course the people in them are perfectly polished. Now with everyone having a camera of some sort it's just alot harder to hide those parts of our soceity. Statically women are still less likely to committe violent crimes compared to men, but women can and do committe depraved acts and always have.
I thought digusting would be about women picking their nose and burping.
Society has finally accepted women as independent beings, no longer dependent on husbands, male relatives, and male religious leaders, and therefore accountable for their actions. Hence the backlash against George and Cindy Anthony's attempts to protect their daughter, also with Melissa Huckaby's Pastor Grandfather swearing up and down Hucks was a loving person. As current as forty years ago these tactics would have worked to get the women off. But historically women have committed all the atrocities men have only in fewer numbers (or so we think), and closer to home such as targeting family members which I think is more evil.
I think the idea of slapping the word "Juicy" across my 12 year olds behind is ridiculous. The idea of repressing her rights as a woman is equally ridiculous.
Is it not possible to be respectful of our bodies in a modest way, yet still remain forthright and straightforward to speak our mind.
It is possible for women to be personally responsible and have moral courage…and a sense of wicked humor.
It's called well-rounded. Look it up.
you are Awesome!
I couldn't agree more. That's why we are a tv-free family that places value on nature and relationships! I'm reading a great book called "Keeper of the Children" by Laura Ramirez. She writes about children being allowed to question adults - b/c it has been proven true so many times that they don't all have their best interests at heart.
that low life that killed sandra cantu should be killed right away instead of useing the tax payers money.she is a low like I am a person that lives in tracy.that low life showed no remors.they should make her suffer like she made sandra suffer.
Like others, I couldn't agree more. I wonder where we have come as a society and where exactly we think we're headed.
Women have always had the capacity to be as depraved as men, this is honestly nothing new - just as men have the capacity to be as inspiring as women. I find the inference that women are somehow declining in morality and that men are naturally lower on the moral spectrum to be actually quite sexist and close minded.
sooo true. attempting to raise my baby with morals, ethics, and dignity
good comments. we do need to stop allowing our girls to pick heros who promote sex and bad behavior. adams is great hero. she was courageous and strong and i will have my daughter read about her.
Women have always been as they are today it is only societies ability to look at them in the way they actually are that has changed.
I blame NOW and women's organizations that espouse abortion rights as a central tenet of their platform. "It is a hard heart that kills." Women have changed because radical women have lionized them for embracing and imitating male behaviors. Not saying we shouldn't ever wear blue jeans but there is a big difference in equality of opportunity and equality of behavior.
This is nothing new. It was just better hidden and women have probably gotten away with a lot of crimes just because they were women. To me, this article's subheading almost makes it sound as if it is acceptable for men to be "disgusting". This behavior is "disgusting" regardless of gender.

600 miles in Kentucky, begins in Crittenden County, travels east to Elkhorn City
The TransAmerica Bike Trail travels from the Pacific coast in Oregon, to the Atlantic Coast at Yorktown, Virginia. Originally known as Bicycle Route 76, it was established by the Adventure Cycling Association as part of the American Bicentennial celebration. 600 miles of this tour travel across Kentucky. Entering from Illinois, riders first glimpse of Kentucky is in Crittenden County. Heading east riders will travel through the towns od Hodgenville, Bardstown, Springfield and Harrodsburg. All of these locations offer great opprotunities for lodging, shopping and dining. Not to mention this area is home to a large number of Kentucky's famous bourbon distilleries. The next hot spot on the TrasnAmerica trail is in Berea, Kentucky which is home to a large concentration of artists and crafts people. Riders will also pass through the Daniel Boone National Forest on this ride and the stunning Red River Gorge National Geological Area. Traveling east still, eastern Kentucky and its majestic mountains make for a much more challening stretch of the tour. Buckhorn Lake State Resort Park offers a good stop for riders. The last stretch of the trail in Kentucky travels through Elkhorn City. Elkhorn City is home to the Breaks Interstate Park and the Russell Fork River, which features some of the best white water paddling in the country. A true test of determination, this route has seen increasing popularity in recent years.

Exploring Tight End Principles That Boost the Ducks' Running Game
The Oregon Ducks use formations incredibly well on offense. Many also categorize them as a "spread offense," which to most people means 4 wide receivers and 1 running back, or "10 personnel" in coaching speak (1 running back, 0 tight ends). Without getting too nit-picky …Read More →

In 1988, West Virginia had a potential wakeup call to look at the safety of its above-ground storage tanks, but state officials and others ignored it.
On Jan. 2, 1988, a four-million gallon oil storage tank split apart and collapsed at an Ashland Oil Co. oil storage facility on the Monongahela River at Floreffe, Pa. The tank ruptured while being filled to capacity for the first time after it had been dismantled and moved from an Ohio location and reassembled at Floreffe.
The rupture released No. 2 diesel fuel over the tank's containment dikes, across a parking lot on an adjacent property and into an uncapped storm drain that emptied directly into the river.
The tank was just upstream of a dam. The fuel-contaminated water in the river washed over the dam, churning the fuel and making recovery almost impossble.
The slick moved down the Monongahela and Ohio rivers. Water systems that drew water from the Ohio, including Wheeling and Huntington, had to shut down as the spill passed. In Huntington, West Virginia American Water Co. installed a second intake, this one on the Guyandotte River, to keep its water plant open as the spill passed.
Ashland Oil immediately took responsibility for the accident.
When the immediate crisis was past, West Virginia's officials seemed to forget about what had happened. Pennsylvania's didn't. Its lawmakers responded with the Storage Tank and Spill Prevention Act of 1989. The act set out a program for developing and implementing regulations for above-ground and underground storage tanks.
Pennsylvania law requires owner-operators of above-ground storage tanks to, among other things, use certified inspectors for inspections and tank handling activities. The owner-operators also must meet financial responsibility requirements.
Only storage tank installers or inspectors certified by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection may install, modify, remove or inspect storage tanks.
Point Pleasant water contaminated in 1978
Charleston wasn't the first West Virginia community to temporarily lose its water supply to a chemical spill.
Something similar happened in January 1978 in Point Pleasant, when a Chessie System train derailed, spilling 20,000 gallons of epichlorohydrin and contaminating the city's well field.
The Chessie System, now part of CSX, paid for a new water supply for the city.
And that's one difference between the two incidents. Chessie was a major corporation with deep pockets. By all accounts, Freedom Industries, the source of the MCHM that leaked into the Elk River above the Charleston intake Jan. 9, is not.
John Musgrave, who currently serves as executive director of the West Virginia Lottery, was mayor of Point Pleasant at the time of the spill. He declined to be interviewed for this article.
The Point Pleasant incident was one of several derailments Chessie and CSX would have along the old B&O line along the Ohio River throughout a span of several years. Eventually, CSX improved the track, and derailments there are rare now.

Oracle Customer: Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre
Location: Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil
Industry: Healthcare
Employees: 4,300
Annual Revenue: Under $100 Million
Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre, founded in 1970, integrates the Education Ministry's network of university hospitals, and it is academically linked to the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS). Considered one of the largest and most important hospitals in Brazil, it offers services covering more than 60 areas of specialization, has over 800 beds, and admits nearly 2,500 patients per day.
The Hospital needed to ensure high availability for critical business applications to streamline operations, and better serve the patients in its care. As important, it looked to replicate the IT environment to support continuity of operations and the availability of information during contingency situations.
The project included the upgrade of the Oracle Database, Standard Edition and the incorporation of Oracle Real Application Clusters and Oracle Active Data Guard to increase IT environment stability, patient information security, and improve the availability of its network. It also reduced the number of hours hospital IT staff dedicate to database maintenance, freeing up professionals to perform other tasks, thereby improving productivity.
"With the update of the IT infrastructure built on Oracle Database, Enterprise Edition with Real Application Clusters, we now manage more than one million active patient records without network availability problems. This is critical to delivering quality patient care." – Valter Ferreira da Silva, Infrastructure and IT Manager, Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre
"We needed more availability and an infrastructure that ensured continuity for our system and access for our users, even in the face of a problem or need for temporary maintenance. Oracle's tools helped us achieve these goals, and today we can serve our patients reliability and safely, as we have a stable and robust environment, as well as a total contingency system," said Valter Ferreira da Silva, infrastructure and IT manager, Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre.
Oracle Partner
Ação Informática
Advanced IT
"We have a long history of working with Oracle, and our decision to continue with the company demonstrates how satisfied we are with this relationship. For this Oracle database upgrade project, we worked in partnership with Ação Informática and Advanced IT, which gave us peace of mind because it demonstrated extensive knowledge of the solution and of our business," Silva said.

Growing up in Muscle Shoals, Alabama during the 1960s gave drummer Land Richards the opportunity to witness the birth of the soul music movement. He was born into a musical family—his father being co-writer of the famous hit "When A Man Loves A Woman"—and started performing on drums at age seven, moving on to the local club circuit by age twelve.
Over his long career in the music industry, Richards has performed with some of the best-known acts in the world—including George Benson, Michael Bolton, Natalie Cole, Gladys Knight, Patti LaBelle, Stevie Wonder, Stevie Nicks and Earth, Wind and Fire. In his own words, "Everyday I strive to grow more in both music and technology, because they have become one in today's music industry."
Describe your song-writing process:
I usually start on the keyboard with melody, harmony, and a theme or story I'd like to include. From there, the technology I use brings the song up to date by animating it.
What gear do you use for mobile music production?
Because I travel so much on the road, I became an instant M-Audio fan with my first Midiman mixer. I then moved on to using Reason software and M-Audio interfaces. Since then, my M-Audio gear and I have become inseparable! Since I continue to write and produce during tours, I always carry my FireWire 410, BX5a monitors, and Ozonic in a compact case. The BX5a monitors make it possible for all the music I produce to be heard on the radio the way I hear it in the studio. Once I've mastered the songs using iZotope Ozone 3, the tracks are ready for manufacture.
How has using software like Pro Tools M-Powered changed the way you make music?
Pro Tools M-Powered allows me to load a client's session from their hard drive and work using the user interface they are accustomed to. M-Audio has what you need to make it happen because they present applicable options for anyone interested in making music.
What projects will you be working on down the road?
I will continue to tour with Michael Bolton and Bobby Caldwell along with a number of other artists. I am also remastering and producing a gospel project by the name of "Live in the Spirit of Joy" featuring the Gospel All-Stars.
