The State – and Fate – of Prairie
By Peter Carrels
It's brisk and moist on an overcast autumn afternoon in northeastern South Dakota. The earth is muddy from last night's rain and sleet, but preparation for next spring's planting is already underway. Cattle grazed a grassy pasture here last summer. Next summer, these acres will be growing corn.
I am watching a heavy-duty tandem disc break virgin prairie. Across the width of this implement are double rows of circular harrow blades, each one bigger than a dinner plate. The blades revolve over and over to penetrate and turn the ground. The tandem disc is towed by a tractor that runs on tracks instead of tires, and it easily moves across the land despite sticky, slippery conditions.
A man operating a nimble rock picker is plucking stones from unplowed areas. A growing pile of rock along a fence line on one side of the field is the collection point for the fruits of his labor. A dump truck, its bed filled with boulders, is mired down in mud. The driver accelerates and tires spin. He idles the engine and waits for the rock picker to pull him free. Then he'll dump his load and return for more.
As I watch the dump truck rocking back and forth in the mud, I spot a colorful stone poking through unplowed earth. I grasp the top, wiggle it, and finally pull it free. Like an iceberg, there's more below the surface than above. It's sizeable – as big as a cantaloupe – and I stow it in my pack. I'm a rock collector, and I save notable stones as mementos from trips across the country.
The tractor and disc clatter by, making another long trip across the land. Behind them, native sod is neatly sliced and turned on its side or upside down in long strips. There is symmetry to the six-inch-deep cuts and the slabs of exposed soil, with glistening green grass on one side and dark dirt on the other.
The plan is to wait a week or so after the disc's first pass on this 160-acre quarter section – which will allow soil, grass, and other vegetation in the broken sod to dry and start to decompose – before cross-disking the entire tract. "The more decay, the better the tear-up," explains the landowner as he walks me through the process of converting native grassland to monoculture crop production.
After the disc is used a second time, more rock picking and digging will be done. Stones resting on the disked sod or partially buried near the surface of the soil can break a high-priced seed planter. In this part of the world, rock removal is a vital part of prairie conversion. A third disking after that is an option.
The final step in the conversion process involves an implement – one version is called the Turbo-Till® – that in a single pass chops residual vegetation and creates a smooth, consistent seedbed.
In a matter of several weeks, a prairie that evolved over thousands of years will have been completely and irretrievably undone. Corn planting will take place in five months or so. This conversion is happening on mixed-grass prairie along the western fringe of today's corn belt. Not too many years ago, pasture management and cattle grazing dominated land use here. This is also the heart of the prairie pothole region, known as North America's "duck factory" due to the critical nesting and breeding habitat it provides for many species of far-ranging waterfowl.
It was the presence of so much stone that helped keep this land in grass. Uncertain precipitation and a shorter growing season than the rest of the corn belt also figured into land-use decision-making. New corn hybrids have allayed grower concerns about rainfall and climate, and these technological achievements dove-tailed with exploding corn prices, aided by ethanol's appetite for more and more corn.
When grain prices rose to remarkable heights, land values also increased – often at a jaw-dropping rate. Just 20 years ago, this rocky property was valued at hundreds of dollars per acre. Today, an acre of land like this fetches $3,000 to $4,000 from corn farmers expanding their operations as quickly as their income and credit allow. Farm sizes are multiplying, and the temptation to transition from cattle to corn has become almost irresistible. Tax and land-use policies as well as incentives offered by lending agencies and institutions – all driven by high corn prices – also encourage the conversion of grasslands to grain.
Now, volatility in corn prices – from near $8 a bushel last year to less than $4 as of this writing – is pushing farmers to seek high returns through volume. Inputs such as seed, fuel, fertilizers, and biocides remain spendy, shrinking per-acre profits and causing corn producers to expand the amount of land they plant to maintain revenues.
The landowner managing the conversion project I witnessed was reluctantly doing so. "This wasn't part of my original plan," he said with a noticeable sigh. "I'd rather have cattle, with the land in pasture." His land ethic was more nuanced and sensitive than I ever would have guessed. "Unfortunately, my circumstances dictate doing this," he added, before elaborating with a personal story about his life and his finances.
Not all farmers and grassland ranchers face the same challenges or express the same sentiment as the fellow I met. But the story of prairie conversion, no matter why or where, reveals an ongoing trend in agriculture that has less to do with stewardship and sustainability and more to do with the here and now of individual farmers taking advantage of business opportunities, including engaging in land-management decision-making focused by necessity on a bottom line that is determined by people residing far from our farmlands....

There was also a flight at 1:00 that got cancelled so I figured there was no way I was going to get on that 2:35 flight because they moved everyone that was on the 1:00 flight to the 2:35 flight along with other people that were in the ...

With so many older adults living alone and in poverty, some Franklin and surrounding-area seniors will undoubtedly be struggling to make ends meet this holiday season. That's why the area Home Instead Senior Care office has partnered with retailers and community organizations to make sure isolated seniors receive gifts and companionship through the Be a Santa to a Senior program.
"Seniors faced with medical bills and the high cost of living can find they have little left at the end of the year," said Emily Barnes, Executive Director, of the Home Instead Senior Care office serving the cities of Franklin, Columbia, Fairview, Lewisburg, Spring Hill, Lawrenceburg and Pulaski. "That's not the only issue, though. Personal needs may become magnified for so many living alone with no one to share their problems."
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 9 percent of U.S. seniors 65 and older are living in poverty and 27 percent are widowed.
With the support of Senior Care Agencies, area retailers, volunteers and members of the community, the local Home Instead Senior Care office will collect and distribute gifts to seniors who might otherwise spend the holiday alone.
The Be a Santa to a Senior program will kick off Nov. 14 and 15 and run through Dec. 19. Christmas trees, which will go up in local CVS Pharmacies (see locations below), will feature ornaments with the first names of the seniors and their respective gift requests.
Holiday shoppers are asked to pick up an ornament off special Be a Santa to a Senior Christmas trees, buy items on the list and return them unwrapped to the store, along with the ornament attached. The Home Instead Senior Care office will then enlist the volunteer help of its staff, senior-care business associates, non-profit workers and others to collect, wrap and distribute the gifts.
"Be a Santa to a Senior is another way to say 'thank you' to the many seniors who have made such important contributions to our community throughout the years," Barnes said. "Helping a needy older adult can bring fulfillment to the giver as well as the receiver – it does make a difference," he added.
For information about the program, visit www.beasantatoasenior.com or call 615-591-4663.

Product Description
First Year of Issue with No Motto ("In God We Trust" omitted) design. Graded by NGC as MS-61 this 1907 $10 Indian has tremendous detail and eye appeal! This coin was originally designed as a high relief and looked more like a medal, but was lowered for a number of reasons namely because they did not stack well and because they had to be struck multiple times which wore out the dies quicker than normal. Augustus Saint-Gaudens also designed the more famous $20 Saint Double Eagle which was also struck in High Relief first and without a motto. 1907 $10 Indians, 1907 Saints, and most 1908 Saints do not bear the motto "In God We Trust" as it was not required by law to use this motto on coinage. President Roosevelt even defended Saint Gaudens' omission by stating that it was a profane use of God's name.

SweepAs soon as he stepped into the open field, he slung the minesweeper from his shoulder and pointed its nose to the ground. It was old, worn and heavy, and old and rough, calloused and breaking, and old. The metal between his hands was cold and chilled his fingers. If he was not careful he could step on the very mines he was trying to find. They would have to pick up the pieces of his body and to send the tags home where his wife would cry and hold his son and daughter close with nothing to show them of their father but a piece of metal engraved with "Ajeet Singh".One sweep, than another.This war had taught him to never trust open spaces. Open spaces were where the mines were planted, where Prets lay in wait. France was green and damp just like the uniform he wore. It had been days since he was separated from his unit, and now the Allies were breathing on his neck, searching for POW's, searching for the enemy of which he was one. &

Update 8/13/13: This review originally incorrectly identified the actors in the roles discussed below. The article has been updated. Thanks to the commenters who pointed out the mistake.
About a week and a half ago I was in Philadelphia for my cousin's wedding, and spent the following day doing some sightseeing. It was raining the entire day, so me and the group I was with decided that we should go see a show at night. It so happened that Wicked was playing across the street at the famous Academy of Music, so we bought some tickets.
I wasn't there specifically to review the show, of course, but I committed as much of it as possible to memory, and then wrote the first draft of what's below the next day as I traveled to Williamsburg, VA.
Warning: This review contains major spoilers for the show, so if you haven't seen it and don't wish to know anything about it, turn back now!

When I was in Las Vegas the week before last, I had the opportunity to see Phantom — The Las Vegas Spectacular at The Venetian. Like Penn & Teller, I somehow hadn't yet gotten to it. In this case, though, I had actually stayed at The Venetian for three consecutive years. I guess three years of hearing the main theme everywhere in the casino finally got to me, because I couldn't pass it up, especially after I learned that the show is closing in September.
First let me say that everybody was fantastic. Anthony Crivello as The Phantom, of course, but also Kristi Holden as Christine, Andrew Ragone as Raoul, Tina Walsh as Madame Giry, and the rest of the ensemble as well. They played their parts well, and Crivello in particular had a way of keeping the audience captivated. However, for me, John Leslie Wolfe as Monsieur André, and Lawson Skala as Monsieur Firmin, often stole the show at some points. They were hilarious, and the two actors have great chemistry together.
I'm still not sure whether that's a good thing or a bad thing. On one hand, they didn't so overshadow the two main cast members to make their performances pale in comparison. On other other hand, Wolfe's and Firmin's performances definitely left me wanting more appearances from their characters. Don't get me wrong; this show is about The Phantom and Christine, but they just didn't have quite as much an effect on me as Wolfe and Firmin (except maybe disliking The Phantom a bit for killing people). Maybe I'm just more into comedy than romantic drama, but after seeing them in this show, I want to see a spin-off featuring Monsieurs André and Firmin.

This past Saturday, Allison and I went to see Harvey on Broadway, starring Jim Parsons (of Big Bang Theory fame). Here's an approximation of our conversation on the train ride home:
Liz: Wow, that was really good. I think Jim Parsons was my favorite; his character was basically Sheldon, just way more social.
Allison: Yeah, he did a great job, and his portrayal of Elwood P. Dowd was so engaging! I was surprised to see Carol Kane pop up in one scene, but I couldn't tell if she was acting or just being herself.
Liz: Haha, yeah, I know. She's kind of always like that.
Allison: "Hi, I'm Carol Kane! And I'm playing Carol Kane! I'm wide-eyed and wacky, and you LOVE me!"
Liz: So true! I do love her.
Allison: It's hard not to love Carol Kane, which is why she has the market pegged on being herself. But I think the actress I was most impressed with was Jessica Hecht as Harvey's sister, Veta — those nervous breakdown scenes! Wow!
Liz: Yes! I was cracking up so hard; the second half of the show was better than the first just because of that.
Allison: I feel like sometimes in theater and film, there's a tendency to make even a "breakdown" appear glamorous. And this was definitely not glamorous, which is part of what made it so amazing. We were sitting so close that we could see the tears streaming down her face, and the beads of sweat, and the panic in her eyes... I was like, "Woah, this woman is seriously on the edge right now."

While in Las Vegas for last week's Ticket Summit® conference and trade show, I made it a point to attend Penn & Teller's show at the Rio. Though I had visited Vegas once a year for the previous three years, I hadn't yet gotten a chance to see it. So this year I actually got a ticket and went as soon as I arrived in the city.
I knew going into it that Penn & Teller isn't quite like other magic shows. Their shtick is that of the skeptic, and it's a role they fill well because not only do they have the chops to actually perform the tricks. With such confidence, they can afford to give away a few secrets, and it helps them stand out from the other magicians on the Strip.

A few weeks ago, Tim suggested that I should do a blog post about the best Broadway songs. It sounded fun, so I agreed...and soon realized just how difficult the task would be. I ended up settling on my favorite Broadway soundtracks, so that I could cheat a little bit and include more awesome songs. Here's my list, in no particular order:
This is one of the most powerful shows ever written. I saw it for the first time just a few months ago, and it was a very intense and emotional experience. It helps that there is almost no dialogue; the entire show is music, which is amazing. This video is of the finale of the 25th anniversary concert version of the show; the video is about 11 minutes long...including 3 minutes of standing ovation at the end. Shows you just how great this show is.

The MSU football program is coming off its most successful year ever.
The Mavericks made it to the division two national semifinal before falling to the eventual champions from Valdosta State.
That all happened under the watch of acting head coach Aaron Keen.
Now Keen will be acting in that role for a little while longer.
As of Friday the school is looking for a new head coach after reassigning Todd Hoffner to assistant athletic director for facilities development.
The school says in a release that Aaron Keen will remain acting head coach for the Mavericks.
The University says they'll be making additional decisions regarding the head football coach position in the coming weeks.

Simple and versatile, the Teema Tableware collection designed by Kaj Franck for Iittala is based on the fundamental shapes of circle, square, triangle, and rectangle. From these enduring forms, the designer created a range of functional dishes for the home that can be used for more than just serving—meal prep, heating, storing, and even freezing. The Teema Square Plate can be used for salads or small meals, and can be coordinated with other Teema dishes to create a complete place setting. The timeless and sophisticated Teema collection is adaptable to a variety of occasions, whether it's a quiet meal at home or a lively dinner party.

Dishwasher, Microwave, and Freezer safe.
Kaj Franck was a Finnish designer of glass and tableware. Though he also worked as an educator, his 1953 Kilta line of tableware for Arabia became a massive international hit. Franck is known as an icon of Finnish design, in his removal of excess in his designs, focusing only on the essential elements. Franck has earned numerous awards and prizes, and his work is featured in various design museums. Franck's most famous objects include the Teema tableware collection and Kartio line of glassware, both produced by Iittala.
Founded in Iittala, Finland in 1881, Iittala first began as a glass factory. The company now celebrates generations of glassware objects including vases, dishes, and décor items, and maintains the tenet that objects should be distinctive, multifunctional, and enduring—both physically and aesthetically. Many renowned Scandinavian designers have designed for Iittala, including Kaj Franck, Alvar Aalto, and Oiva Toikka. Many of their most iconic designs including the Aalto Vase, Kartio glasses, and Kastehelmi dishware are still produced today.

Serves twelve.
This chocolate cake concludes the Passover meal on a rich note (just as a holiday dessert should). Dried cherries and toasted almonds are folded into a caramel topping and then drizzled over the cake, giving it a crisp (think peanut brittle) topping. I don't often use margarine, though it ensures that this cake keeps with kosher rules. Most large supermarkets carry matzo cake meal around the holidays.
Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 350°F. Line the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper, then grease the paper and sides of the pan. Melt the chocolate in a medium bowl set in a small skillet of hot, barely simmering water. Remove the chocolate from the heat and let cool for a couple of minutes.
Meanwhile, process the almonds in a food processor until finely ground and set aside. In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or with an electric hand mixer), beat the margarine with 3/4 cup of the sugar and the salt on medium speed until soft and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the egg yolks and vanilla and mix on medium-low speed until smooth. Gently fold in the chocolate, ground almonds, and matzo cake meal.
In another large bowl, using the whisk attachment or clean beaters, beat the egg whites on high speed until they form soft peaks, about 3 minutes. Add the remaining 1/4 cup sugar and beat until the egg whites form stiff peaks, about 1 minute more.
In three batches, use a rubber spatula to gently fold the egg whites into the chocolate mixture. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan, spread evenly, and bake until the top starts to brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just some moist crumbs attached, 35 to 40 minutes.
While the cake is baking, soak the cherries in the liqueur in a small bowl. Let the cake cool in the pan on a rack for 15 minutes.
In a heavy-based medium saucepan, stir the sugar and 1/2 cup water together over medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Raise the heat to medium high and cook, swirling occasionally and brushing down the sides of a pan with a wet pastry brush to wash down any sugar crystals, until the caramel turns a deep, amber brown, about 6 minutes. Carefully add 1/4 cup water (it will bubble up), and whisk together until the mixture acquires an even, syrupy consistency. Drain the cherries and then stir them into the caramel, along with the chopped almonds.
Remove the sides of the springform pan and set the cake on a large rimmed baking sheet. Pour the caramel mixture evenly over the cake (it's fine if it spills over the sides). Let the cake cool completely to room temperature before transferring to a cake stand and serving.
The cake will keep, covered and refrigerated, for up to 3 days.

4/16/2014This was an awesome cake, everyone loved it! Will be sure to make this every year.
by merrymim,
4/12/2014Would like to have tried it but it is not flourless so i was disappointed.
by werehungry,
9/30/2013I made this for passover and it was gone in 60sec!!!! It was amazing and will be a staple for passover from now on!!!
by Nvercomplete,
4/22/2011How under any circumstances is this a "flourless" chocolate cake when Matzoh meal is ummmm, flour-filled? Don't mislead intentionally.
by Sile,
4/20/2008We tripled this and had to replace the matzo meal cake with flour as two local stores did not have any in stock. We were very surprised that the three cakes (one made in a 9x12 baking dish) came out terrific. Everyone was pleased that the Sedar dessert was tasty - even the kids!

Protect your children with a will
By ROBERT ANDERSON
Joe stopped by the other day to talk about the need to update his and his wife's wills. Joe's father recently died, and it made him think about what would happen to his young children if he and his wife should die prematurely.
The need for estate planning
If a person dies in Minnesota without a will, state law decides how his property will be distributed. The state will also allow a judge to decide who will be appointed guardians for minor children if both husband and wife are deceased.
However, if the parents have wills, the wills can establish to whom their assets will be passed and who will take care of their minor children.
Key Points
• If parents with minor children die without a will, a judge will select a guardian.
• Guardians for minor children should be appointed in the parents' wills.
• Wills can create a trust to hold parents' assets until children are old enough.
The will can also establish a trust, called a testamentary trust, which will go into effect when both parents are deceased. This trust will hold their assets until their children reach an age at which the parents feel they are old enough to receive their inheritance. The trust will be managed by a trustee who will invest and distribute those funds.
Parents with minor children should have provisions in their wills to appoint a guardian for those children.
The guardian will be responsible to provide a loving home for their children. In addition, the guardian will be responsible for the education and religious training of the children.
Ideally, guardians should be young enough so that they are likely to live until the children are grown. Alternates should also be selected if the guardians appointed in the will are unable to complete their service.
Joe and his wife, Mary, choose Mary's brother and sister-in-law as guardians. Even though the children are close to both sets of grandparents, Joe and Mary felt that since Mary's brother and sister-in-law are close to their age, that they will most likely be able care for the children until they are 18.
It is important as well that the guardians are asked to serve prior to being named. This assures that the guardians are willing to take on this responsibility.
Testamentary trusts
If parents do not want their children to receive their inheritance at age 18, they can provide for a testamentary trust in their wills. The trust will go into effect if both parents die before the youngest child reaches an age that they wish to have him or her receive the proceeds from the estate.
A trustee will be appointed by the will to manage the assets of the trust and will be instructed by the will when and how the funds will be distributed.
For example, Joe's will specifies that the trustee will distribute the funds in the trust when the youngest child attains the age of 25. It also specifies that the trustee can advance funds to pay for college or to purchase a principle residence prior to age 25.
It is not necessary for the trustee to be a family member, and it is not necessary that the same person be both the guardian of the children and the trustee.
For example, Joe has designated Mary's brother as guardian, but his uncle as trustee.
Since Joe's uncle will be fairly old before the youngest child attains the age of 25, Joe has also provided in his will for a method to appoint a successor trustee.
As always, be sure to consult with a knowledgeable attorney before proceeding.

How 3D Active Shutter Glasses Work
One of the questions I often get is, "Why are the glasses for 3D TV's different from the ones in the theatre?". The answer really is all about the environment for playback.
First off, you need the glasses to separate the image going into the left and right eyes. Just like the camera captures one image for each eye (see my previous post), the display system has to deliver one image for each eye.
So here's what happens in a theatre:
The room is completely dark. This is really important as the glasses only need to filter the image directly in front of you. You don't have to worry about windows or ambient light or people searching around for the remote.
You have two projectors delivering those left and right eye images. The images pass through polarizing filters that match up to the left and right eyes of your glasses, giving you a separate movie for each eye. Some digital projector systems can use a single lens and a special polarizer in the projector to achieve the same effect, but the result is the same.
The other important technical element is you are using an ultra-bright bulb to drive the picture. Some of those polarized lenses can cut the brightness of the picture by 40%-60%. You can adjust the brightness of that bulb up to compensate for the polarizing effect.
Making the bulb brighter generates a great deal of heat and the bulbs do not last as long. Because all that equipment is hidden and the extra price of operating it is spread over a large group of people, most of the technical and economic issues are not even evident to the audience.
Here's what happens in the home:
The TV displays the left and right images sequentially, one after another. The glasses blank the left and right eye in sync with an Infrared Pulse coming from the television. In this way, the polarizing effect does not dim the picture as much as the theatre scenario. We need that brightness to get a great picture in the home environment.
The problem with alternately blanking the view of your left and right eye is that process can make prolonged viewing uncomfortable. That's why Sony built their glasses to blank only the TV image and not the rest of the light coming into your eye from the room around you.
The glasses are also designed to minimize reflection and light coming to your eyes from the sides and behind. We also make sure we use lots of IR emitters to send the signal to the glasses, so the sync remains rock solid. All of these little design elements help create a comfortable 3D viewing experience.
There are also plenty of techniques we implement into the television to ensure the comfortable experience. We use the extra frames available to us on a 240Hz system to make sure that we only get the left image to the left eye and the right image to the right eye. This is critical because if you see any image doubling or ghosting, it is the result of seeing part of the image meant for your right eye with your left eye or vice versa. This is commonly called crosstalk. The order we present the frames prevents this effect.
We also use LED Boost technology to make the picture brighter when showing a 3D frame, so we can have the same bright colour and excellent contrast you get on your 2D video.
It takes a long time to explain in text, so I made a YouTube video that shows the whole process in more detail:
Next time, we'll look at some of the most common questions people are asking about 3D technology.
Thanks Brent for the insightful article on 3D.
In the article you mention that Sony's glasses will only blank the TV image and not the rest of the room. Can you elaborate on this? Are you saying that only a portion of the viewing area is actually blanked depending on the size and location of the TV with respect to the viewer?
Don't forget to add the fact there are many reported cases of individuals having seizures while these 'flickering' glasses.
Bad idea.
while wearing
I think the point he is trying to make is that you have less liklihood of seizures or other side effects from Sony products because they are of better quality and are synchronized tighter than competitive products.
Red lights at an intersection will produce seizures also, the frame rate of 3D tvs works in the same fashion. If you have a pre-existing condition like epilepsy, maybe you should use common sense and avoid a product that flashes multiple images in sequence.
People with heart conditions should probably avoid skydiving also...
There are warning labels for just about everything that has some sort of moving picture - video games, movies, etc. Bright lights and fast moving picture all has the potential to cause seizures in those that are prone to them. If you are not prone to seizures (ie. not epileptic), then you will probably have absolutely no issues using these products and will never experience any ill effects.
Just like with video games, some people tend to blow the potential dangers out of proportion. The majority of people will be able to use these without any problems.
I'm excited to this see this technology in the store and how it differs from the Samsung 3D setup. I'm someone who is eagerly awaiting this technology, and hopes it gains mass acceptance.
You mention in the video that the shutter glasses will be adjustable. Will they be adjustable enough to accomidate those of us who already wear prescription glasses? The Samsung system is FAR(very far) from being useful for me. My gasses are too wide, and the shutter glasses can't sit comfortably. Will the Sony glasses address this?
I can only foresee this 3D TV becoming a fad which will fade away... like minidisc.
My gripe with 3D TV is that for it to be EFFECTIVE the picture would have to consume the majority of your line of sight and consume your peripheral visions to trick the brain in to thinking you are there... like the movie theatre does.
Sitting 10' feet back from a 46-52" televisions hardly achieves the same goal. Not to mention the flicker on the television is much worse than the movie projectors and besides... who really wants to make a habit of wearing glasses and going cross eyed?
Here's another option to avoid glasses... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uef17zOCDb8

Quantitative ultrasound techniques have recently been demonstrated to be a potential method of assessing tumour response at the cellular level through the analysis of radiofrequency backscatter data. In this thesis, prostate cancer xenografts were evaluated in vivo using high-frequency ultrasound analysis techniques to assess tumour response. The anti-cancer treatments consisted of radiotherapy and also a novel anti-vascular therapy utilizing encapsulated microbubble agents in the presence of ultrasound. Quantitative ultrasound results demonstrated a statistically significant change in backscatter parameters in tumours treated with high doses of radiotherapy or a high concentration of microbubbles during treatments. Histopathological assessment demonstrated that tumour cell death due to apoptosis and necrosis correlated with increases in ultrasound parameters. 2011-01-10T17:20:37Z A Platform to Monitor Tumor Cellular and Vascular Response to Radiation Therapy by Optical Coherence Tomography and Fluorescence Microscopy in vivo http://hdl.handle.net/1807/25758 Title: A Platform to Monitor Tumor Cellular and Vascular Response to Radiation Therapy by Optical Coherence Tomography and Fluorescence Microscopy in vivo Authors: Leung, Michael Ka Kit Abstract: Radiotherapy plays a significant role in cancer treatment, and is thought to be curative by mainly killing tumor cells through damage to their genetic material. However, recent findings indicate that the tumor's vascular blood supply is also a major determinant of radiation response. The goals of this thesis are to: (1) develop an experimental platform for small animals to deliver ionizing radiation and perform high-resolution optical imaging to treatment targets, and (2) use this toolkit to longitudinally monitor the response of tumors and the associated vasculature. The thesis has achieved: (1) customization of a novel micro-irradiator for mice, (2) technical development of an improved optical coherence tomography imaging system, (3) comprehensive experimental protocol and imaging optimization for optical microscopy in a specialized animal model, and (4) completion of a feasibility study to demonstrate the capabilities of the experimental platform in monitoring the response of tumor and vasculature to radiotherapy. 2011-01-10T16:13:44Z Metric Optimized Gating for Fetal Cardiac MRI http://hdl.handle.net/1807/25634 Title: Metric Optimized Gating for Fetal Cardiac MRI Authors: Jansz, Michael Abstract: Phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (PC-MRI) can provide a complement to echocardiography for the evaluation of the fetal heart. Cardiac imaging typically requires gating with peripheral hardware; however, a gating signal is not readily available in utero. In this thesis, I present a technique for reconstructing time-resolved fetal phase-contrast MRI in spite of this limitation. Metric Optimized Gating (MOG) involves acquiring data without gating and retrospectively determining the proper reconstruction by optimizing an image metric, and the research in this thesis describes the theory, implementation, and evaluation of this technique. In particular, results from an experiment with a pulsatile flow phantom, an adult volunteer study, in vivo application in the fetal population, and numerical simulations are presented for validation. MOG enables imaging with conventional PC-MRI sequences in the absence of a gating signal, permitting flow measurements in the great vessels in utero. 2011-01-01T15:26:20Z Determining the In vivo Conformation of p53 Tumour Suppressor Protein http://hdl.handle.net/1807/25545 Title: Determining the In vivo Conformation of p53 Tumour Suppressor Protein Authors: Dann, Cale Abstract: This work details the design and generation of a monomer specific p53 rabbit polyclonal antibody. The technique involved careful analysis of published Nuclear Magnetic Resonance(NMR)and X-Ray structures to select an epitope buried in the wildtype tetramer of p53,while exposed in the monomer. The antibody was validated with indirect Enzyme Linked Immunosorbant Assay(ELISA),competition ELISA and western blot. Following these experiments, the antibody, denoted as α-tet,was employed in immunofluorescence (IF) experiments of cancer cell lines DU145 (prostate carcinoma, p53 P223L and V274F) and A549 (lung carcinoma,p53 wildtype)to determine the localization of monomeric p53. Monomeric p53 was confined to the nucleolus of DU-145 cells. Additional staining of the Golgi apparatus in both cell lines was also observed. However, upon investigation of a p53 null cell line, SKOV-3,the Golgi staining was determined to be a result of cross reactivity with another protein. Nevertheless, the presence of nucleolar monomeric p53 in DU-145 cells indicates that monomerization of p53 does occur in this cell line. 2010-12-31T18:21:22Z
