If you're thinking about translating a land-based program to a cruise ship, the Landry & Kling Web site (www.landrykling.com) can help you navigate the waters. The site offers information on tax deductibility, the types of meetings and incentives that can work aboard ship, sample agendas, cost comparisons, cruise checklists, and other useful tools. Last fall, the site took a step further by incorporating virtual tours of 76 ships from 17 cruise lines.
The 360-degree virtual tours are easy to use and don't require much bandwidth or any special software. And they're surprisingly comprehensive. Most ships have views of six or seven cabin types and 10 to 20 public areas. Imagine the view you'd get from a wide-angle video camera rotating on a tripod set in the middle of a room, and that's the picture you get of each space.
Innovative as they are, as a serious tool for experienced planners, the virtual tours are little more than eye candy. After the first six or seven, they start to look the same. Missing are the all important statistics such as meeting room capacities, square footage, ceiling heights, seating charts, audiovisual and communications capabilities, or even the number of people each ship can hold.
Beyond the Web resources, the site allows users to register for a free Planner's Guide to Business at Sea and a free video designed for meeting planners. However, get ready to type. Visitors to the site must register initially to access the site, and then again to receive the planner book, and yet a third time to get the video.
While the site is not perfect, it is an excellent place to begin your research before you head out to sea.

Cellar/Tasting Notes "This is unusually elegant in 2010 with its refined nose of raspberry and earth though there are background notes of grilled meat and smoke. The supple, mouth coating and utterly delicious broad-shouldered flavors possess a silky texture yet there is plenty of power and punch to the very firmly..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Bright, deep red. Captivating violet lift to the aromas of cassis, minerals, bitter chocolate, licorice and sexy oak; I would have guessed this had a good deal of cabernet franc. Then extremely primary on the palate, but already showing a seductive sugar/acid balance. Boasts lovely clarity and..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "This wine continues a long-standing tradition, showing a mastery of the art of blending. It's made using grapes that are sourced from at least six vineyards scattered from Yountville to St. Helena. Right out of the bottle, it's a soft, smoothly tannic wine that's rich in blackberry jam,..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "This is racy and super fine with a blueberry and mineral character with hints of sage. Full and racy with an intense center palate of fruit and ultra-fine tannins. Fab."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "A beautiful effort, the 2009 Pichon Lalande, a blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot, possesses copious mocha, lead pencil, unsmoked, high class tobacco, black currant, forest floor and herbaceous characteristics. It is a deep purple-hued, charming, surprisingly open-knit..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Rich, yet always elegant, this has raspberry flavor and terrific acidity that creates tension, contrasting with the opulent fruit. While it's structured, it will soften and round out over the next five years."
Cellar/Tasting Notes Not surprisingly, the 2006 is a bigger, more muscular, less charming effort displaying unbridled power, full-bodied richness, and notes of new saddle leather, black fruits, roasted herbs, and burning embers. Powerful and rich with sweet tannin, low acidity, and more structure and density than the..
Cellar/Tasting Notes Good ruby-red. Nuanced aromas of blackberry, minerals, licorice and wild herbs; a bit more medicinal in character than the 2008 version. Quite closed and inexpressive following the recent bottling, but concentrated dark fruit flavors show a lovely light touch, with mineral and floral notes..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "This is not a big Château Margaux, its style showing more elegance and discretion. The tannins are soft, although producing a dense web that lies underneath the black currant and plum fruit flavors. It is a wine that envelops the mouth, an edge of firmness over velvet fruit textures. The wine..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Dense purple to the rim, this wine exhibits the classic cassis aroma that is so characteristic of Mouton. Medium to full-bodied, tannic, powerful, and cut somewhat from the 1988 mold, this is a backward, chewy, well-endowed Mouton-Rothschild that will require considerable patience from those who..

Soft Structured Carriers
Babytrekker - Deluxe 5 position carrier
" I love my babytrekker. It's super comfy and once you figure it all out, I find it rather simple to use. My sons both seemed to feel comfortable in it and I was able to use it with my second boy from birth to a bit over 18 months with no issues. I'd have used it longer but I mostly use it to take walks and started letting him walk around with us a little after that and then I got preggo again..." --dayiscoming2006
Catbird Baby Pikkolo Carrier
"I bought the Pikkolo to have an option for a buckle carrier where my little one could have his legs out rather than in. The Pikkolo has an adjustable base which allows both small babies to be legs out and also any baby to face forward while still sitting ergonomically. I tried it out, immediately, with my 3yo son, and was amazed at how comfy it was, even with him. The baby was far more..." --HeatherB

Watch: 23andMe CEO addresses FDA setbackDecember 6, 2013: 11:37 AM ET
"We're kind of a square peg in a round hole" Wojcicki says in exclusive interview>
On November 22, the FDA sent 23andMe a letter saying that the company did not have approval to market its product as a medical device. The company sells DNA Spit Kits for $99, which are then mailed back to 23andMe and used to sequence part of a customer's genome. 23andMe has since stopped marketing the kits and yesterday announced it would no longer provide heath data to new customers, while the company undergoes a regulatory review process.
As company co-founder and CEO Anne Wojcicki says in the above interview with Fortune senior editor-at-large Patricia Sellers—the first and so far only interview in which she addresses the FDA's charges—"We have to solve the problem."

I do so because I think there are some missing pieces to atheism and also because the informtion that I work with not only answers some of the important questions, but its authenticity and credibility is based in a verifiable foundation of solid scientific evidence, ignored, suppressed, attacked, etc., as it has been for many decades.
But the core information is all about consciousness, a non-religious "spiritual teaching" that is based on complete self-responsibility, self-observation and self-awareness. It differs from many such paths in significant ways and is, of course, belief-free.
I also come here because should Sam and those who follow his information grasp the importance and reality of this information, this assistance, we could possibly avoid many otherwise unpleasant things coming our (humankind's) way. Thinkers like Sam are already, in many ways, working along compatible lines.
Since I'm posting this in the Science forum, I'm hoping to engage with those who are open-minded, critical thinkers, who also don't incorrectly see this as any kind of attempt to do anything except to add to the understanding and to a possible alliance with other real freethinkers who also don't regard themselves as atheists because they are exploring a more comprehensive perspective that answers the questions that atheism alone doesn't.
So, for those who don't know me, I bring the perspective of the information in the Billy Meier case, which I represent, to the discussion.
What is it?
How do we know about it?
What makes it worth the time and effort to pursue?
In his rebuttal to Denning, Sam says:
That is, whatever his ability as a golfer, Austin would miss that same putt a trillion times in a row—provided that every atom and charge in the universe was exactly as it had been the first time he missed it.
From what we know of quantum mechanics, this is simply not true. Sam's assumption about this seems to fall back on the bugaboo of hidden variable theory
Quantum mechanics tells us that certain things in the universe are random, period. For example, a given particle may or may not decay in some duration of time. Our predictive power over this event is limited to probabilistic and statistical methods.
If we observe a particle decay once, and from that assume that we could replay the event and see it decay every time, we are supposing that there is some underlying state which determined that the particle should decay just then.
I am not a physicist, but I think the work on this is pretty clear - it has been demonstrated convincigly that there is no underlying state that will cause the same thing to happen every time. To suppose that it would decay every time means you feel that this activity is dependent on some state that can be captured. Quantum mechanics denies this, and the theory is fairly well buttressed on this point.
The underlying message of this is that our common notions of determinism are not quite in line with quantum theory, and I think Sam is mistaken here. How this plays out with the rest of his argument is beyond the scope of my understanding, and I won't even try to go there.
Whether what I have said here actually matters or not is also out of my grasp. The question of whether quantum mechanics and its associated indeterminism have any bearing on human thought and free will also seems to me to be an open question.
I think everyone kind of likes the idea that we don't live in a perfect clockwork universe because it supports our colloquial idea of free will. But quantum effects can be completely ignored quite effectively when examining certain systems at macroscopic scales, so the relation to human thought is is not at all certain. And even though randomness somehow feels nicer to us, it doesn't in any way imply that our will is causing our behavior, any more than the tossed coin has decided it will land heads-up.
All this might seem like a really small and insignificant point - I mean, for one thing, we are not talking about reality, this is part of a thought experiment. Since it's a thought experiment, isn't Sam entitled to make the rules however he likes?
I don't think so, because in this case so much of the arguing about will is tied up with questions about determinism. At least as far back as Penrose, people have been entangling quantum mechanics, consciousness, will, and determinism. If it is really important, then proposing a thought experiment that violates the known behavior of the universe is probably not fair.
- Mark
In contemporary thinking however, both in scientific and philosophical circles, the norm is that dualism is a fallacious line of reasoning. What is the 'I'? Where does it reside? In the brain? When one looks at people with Alzheimer's disease their sense of self is damaged due to memory-loss. This disease affects the brain. When one looks at people with strokes, their ability to speak or recognize faces is damaged. This also is due to happenings in the brain. In surgery the top of the skull can be removed while the patient is still awake, then certain areas of the brain can be stimulated by electric impulses, causing involuntary spasms or movements of muscles and ligaments. There also was an experiment with magnetism, directed at a certain part of the brain, and this gave the test subjects a feeling of there being present something else in the room, something great and awe-inspiring, feeling like some god was watching over them.
This all suggests that the self, or the 'I', is generated by the brain. You can damage every part of your body but the brain, and your sense of self remains the same. Damage the brain, and you alter your sense of self.
Clearly then, the self is material and dualism is out of the window. Now we have established the locus of the self we can try to see what it is constituted of, or what it means to be a self.
Our self then is an impermanent entity, that can exist independent of our brain and body. Our sense of 'I' resides in the brain, but our brain does many things, and we are only aware of the tip of the iceberg so to speak. It regulates our temperature, our hormone-level, etc. . We are only consciously aware of this constant stream of thoughts that is rattling in our head. The spotlight of our attention is very narrow and can only shine on one thing at a time. This is where we have the subjective feeling of the 'I', always in the here and now.
But what is remarkable about this 'I' is that it can wander temporally, it can cross the boundaries of time, dwelling in the past or projecting itself into the future. Our sense of self is highly dependent on memory, take this away and there is no self anymore. There still is a being that experiences, but it doesn't have a coherent picture of itself anymore.
Based on our habitual tendencies, and our recollected actions in the past, we form a picture of ourselves. We think of ourselves as a certain kind of person, adding adjectives to the self. Thus we say for instance: I'm a magnanimous, compassionate person. Or a greedy, self-centered person.
The illusion of self is tied very closely to the illusion of free will, but later more about this.
This was an subjective description of the self, how we experience it. But it can also be approached objectively, from a third-person point of view. Since dualism is not a valid way of viewing the world, we should approach the world materialistically. Our thoughts have a physical form, they are something. Everything is matter. When seen this way, the boundaries between the self and the rest of the world disappear. We are bags of skin, with a feeling of 'I' within. But where our skin touches the sky, there is no divide, this is merely a mental construction. From an early age we learn to think this is 'I', and this is not 'I'. But there is no moment of discontinuity between the atoms and molecules of our skin and the gaseous atoms of the ambient air. It is all one. In this objective sense also, the 'I' is an illusion.
Maybe to further illustrate with an example. Take a book. What is a book? Is it the wrapper, pages, glue, ink? On a deeper level, is it the atoms or molecules that constitute the former? What about the table on which it lays, and its atoms and molecules. They touch each other, there is no divide. Where the one end and the other begins is then a mental construction.
Now to link illusion of self with illusion of free will. We identify ourselves with our conscious mind, with this constant stream of thoughts. Intentions/thoughts appear here, so we think ourselves the author of these thoughts.
"But we live in a world of cause and effect, and there is no way of thinking about cause and effect that allows us to say the buck stops in our mind/brain. The buck never stops. Either our wills are determined by prior causes, a long chain of prior causes, and we're not responsible for them, or they're the product of chance, and we're not responsible for them. Or there is some combination of chance/determinism, but no combination seems to give the free will that people cherish." This is a quote from a speech about free will by Sam Harris
Intentions/thoughts appear in our conscious mind, but this is a consequence of prior causes that are unknown to us. They just rise up, and because they rise up in the place where our sense of 'i' resides, we think ourselves the author. But that's just it, they appear there, but do not originate there.
So what can we now say about the self, with all this information? It is not permanent, it is generated by the brain based on memory, it has no boundaries except in the subjective experience of the mind, it simply is this narrow spotlight of attention that is continuously thinking. But as we've seen, what is put under the spotlight arises spontaneously out of prior causes. The self has no influence on it. It is merely this awareness, or consciousness, that experiences it and rides out the coaster.
So what does it mean to say the self is an illusion? I would say there only is this awareness, this conscious experience of what currently is under the spotlight. All those adjectives we attribute to ourselves, 'I am that kinda person', does not refer to something that 'we' decided. Conventional language begins to break down here, making it difficult to express.
There is no self that decided to be this or that way, it merely happened, and something was conscious of it. It was conscious of the decisions it was making, feeling in fact, that it was it itself that was making the decisions. This is the double illusion, of self and of free will.
For me this is the most salient truth to be known about what it is to be human. It is objective knowledge, in the sense that it is true independent of the minds who think it. Reality is what is still there when nobody thinks it. The question is how can it become scientific knowledge. Knowledge becomes incorporated into the scientific archive through the application of certain methods; empirical observation, experimental testing, communal criticism and skepticism, inductive and deductive reasoning. Can this be achieved through these methods?
This is how I see it anyway, I don't know how this resonates with you guys/girls. I'm interested in your views on this.
The question struck when I saw a talk from Sam Harris on youtube (don't know which one unfortunately) where he drew the parallel that if he came to a physics conference and said that he didn't accept string theory for some reason or other no one would take him seriously because he is not a physicist and so can have no deeper understanding of string theory. Therefore religious "proffesionals" like priests, imams and rabbis should not be consulted when it comes to morality and alot of other stuff. His exact reason for drawing this parallel is irrelevant, the parallel itself however is not.
In essence it means that only someone who is trained and have experience in a field should have the right to have a dissenting view. To a greater or lesser degrees ofcourse, since some fields can be reasonably grasped without a doctorate. This means that no one have the right to believe that say, the big bang didn't happen or that the universe is not 13,7 billion years old. Unless they are trained in the relevant field of physics.
So, I'd like to hear your thoughts on the matter. Does everyone have the right to have a dissenting view in any topic?
Someone acting out of dogmas, of conditionings, beliefs system and or moral scripture is bound someday, if not all the time to act out wrong. An action made out of consciousness is bound to be good. Life is a river, always changing, and dogmas are dead and once integrated as the truth it tends to provokes crystallization in the human body. I am a massage therapist and I can tell you that as I massage my clients I can feel their pains and their tensions. And when I talk with them I often realize the obvious link with their beliefs system versus their posture, tension in the face and stiffness. Most of the ones in their fifties and older suffers a lot from the ''born for little bread'' of christianity or ''né pour un petit pain'' to say it in french.
Thus, to be true to the reality and to ourselves one has to develop the consciousness. This quality of ''isness'' that emerge whenever one's detached from the experience and rather be the observer. If an action is made out of unconsciousness it is bound to be bad if not on the superficiality of things, at least on a personal level.
An example.
If a teenager help a old woman to cross a street, most of us wouldn't see any problem with that. It would appear to them as a nice young man with strong value and morality. Or at least on the right track. But if you were to know that this same kid was implanted with the idea that he has to do good, to earn points into his next life to have a better karma ( see here that the motivation is to gain something, not to help)...
or that he is acting like that all the time because his attitude is the only attitude that was accepted within his family regardless of his needs and opinions…that this attitude is the same that makes him accept everything with resignation, a yes man despite his nature….could we say that this is really good? A positive conditioning, is still a conditioning even if that is the accepted behavior in the society…which is an automatic reaction towards reality.
If I tell you that all your conditionings are well implanted in your nervous system and keep you doing, feeling, thinking the same way over and over again…
How to rather be in response towards reality then?
How to live free of conditioning and dogmas?
How to step out the madness of religious scripture and otehr esoteric bullshit?
Meditation is the only medication.
Meditation happens in a relaxed state.
And The ''Tibetan Pulsing'' is one amongst others great body work technic that help release the nervous system of his electrical charge or tension if you prefer.
I once red a story that a man with blinded eye in a house was trying to find the door. Sometime to his left, a wall, sometimes to his right, another wall would appear. Uncertain, and hesitant. Little decision here and there as to find where the door is. To remove the ribbon from his eyes, he would walk out that door without even making the decision.
When we see, we act out of evidence.
Evidence comes through meditation and through science. Never from belief system.
The world needs more scientist meditators, and right now before its too late.

RFID - radio frequency identification
(pronounced as separate letters) Short for radio frequency identification, RFID is a technology similar in theory to bar code identification. With RFID, the electromagnetic or electrostatic coupling in the RF portion of the electromagnetic spectrum is used to transmit signals.
RFID Systems
RFID systems consists of an antenna and a transceiver, which read the radio frequency and transfer the information to a processing device, and a transponder, or tag, which is an integrated circuit containing the RF circuitry and information to be transmitted.
RFID systems can be used just about anywhere, from clothing tags to missiles to pet tags to food -- anywhere that a unique identification system is needed. The tag can carry information as simple as a pet owners name and address or the cleaning instruction on a sweater to as complex as instructions on how to assemble a car. Some auto manufacturers use RFID systems to move cars through an assembly line. At each successive stage of production, the RFID tag tells the computers what the next step of automated assembly is.
The Difference Between RFID and Bar Codes
One of the key differences between RFID and bar code technology is RFID eliminates the need for line-of-sight reading that bar coding depends on. Also, RFID scanning can be done at greater distances than bar code scanning. High frequency RFID systems (850 MHz to 950 MHz and 2.4 GHz to 2.5 GHz) offer transmission ranges of more than 90 feet, although wavelengths in the 2.4 GHz range are absorbed by water (the human body) and therefore has limitations.
RFID is also called dedicated short range communication (DSRC).

JmjCA domain family that is part of the cupin metalloenzyme superfamily.
|SMART accession number:
|Probable enzymes, but of unknown functions, that regulate chromatin reorganisation processes (Clissold and Ponting, in press).
|Interpro abstract (IPR003347):
The JmjN and JmjC domains are two non-adjacent domains which have been identified in the jumonji family of transcription factors. Although it was originally suggested that the JmjN and JmjC domains always co-occur and might form a single functional unit within the folded protein, the JmjC domain was latter found without the JmjN domain in organisms from bacteria to human [(PUBMED:10838566), (PUBMED:11165500)].
The JmjC domain belongs to the Cupin superfamily [(PUBMED:11165500)]. The cupin fold is a flattened beta-barrel structure containing two sheets of five antiparallel beta strands that form the walls of a zinc-binding cleft. JmjC domains were identified in numerous eukaryotic proteins containing domains typical of transcription factors, such as PHD, C2H2, ARID/BRIGHT and zinc fingers [(PUBMED:11165500), (PUBMED:12446723)]. The JmjC has been shown to function in a histone demethylation mechanism that is conserved from yeast to human [(PUBMED:16362057)]. JmjC domain proteins may be protein hydroxylases that catalyse a novel histone modification [(PUBMED:15809658)]. The human JmjC protein named Tyw5p unexpectedly acts in the biosynthesis of a hypermodified nucleoside, hydroxy-wybutosine, in tRNA-Phe by catalysing hydroxylation [(PUBMED:20739293)].
|GO function:
|protein binding (GO:0005515)
|Family alignment:
There are 3049 JmjC domains in 3049 proteins in SMART's nrdb database.

PS160 Blog Post 1: The Conflict in Syria
The conflict over Syria's chemical weapon supply especially interested me when I noticed a unique characteristic of the issue; the United States and Russia act as a corporate actor, a joint unit, in some aspects of the conflict, but still disagree on others. The threats that the UN Security Council makes, therefore, lose credibility because the members of the UN cannot agree. A specific example of this curious situation is the recently published framework for elimination of Syrian chemical weapons. The US and Russia alike both aim to safely, quickly, and totally diminish Syria's chemical weapon supply, and wrote up a very specific list of demands for Syria which the two countries will ask the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons to approve. Because they are acting together with similar interests, the US and Russia can be considered a corporate actor in this particular scenario.
They disagree, however, when it comes to the exact consequences of the threat. If Syria does not comply to the requests of the framework deal, what is the consequence? The UN Security Council's Article 42 states that in such a situation, forceful consequences may follow. This is where Russia disagrees, as it claims it never intended that possibility to be apart of the resolution. Because of this disagreement, the framework for the removal of Syria's chemical weapon supply loses credibility because it has been publicly announced that not all parties support this consequence. The Syrian government, therefore, may have reason to assume that it may not be worthwhile to acquiesce to the threats and demands of the framework. The agreement also proved to be ineffective because Syria denounced the framework, believing that Russia is a partner of Syria's regime. The question that interests me now is who then, in the long run, is the corporate actor- The United States and Russia, or Syria and Russia?

There's a lot of wishful thinking there. Coming out of a game with pain is a sign. If the lakers are smart, they should bench him, get Kareem to lecture him on clean living and stretching and get the surgery done. Lose the battle if you want to win the war, this season is lost anyway.
Dwight Howard says shoulder 'real sore' but dismisses possibility of surgery
The Los Angeles Lakers suffered a loss to the Suns in Phoenix on Wednesday night as Steve Nash watched a three game win streak come to an end at the hands of his former team and Dwight Howard saw a more serious injury to his nagging shoulder pain.
Howard told reporters after game that he is now in the worst pain he's felt since injuring his shoulder nearly a month ago against the Los Angeles Clippers when he subsequently sat out three games to recondition the muscles in his shoulder. He said he would consider missing games again because it's "real sore" and that the entire right side of his body is hurting.
But when asked about the possibility of surgery, he simply replied, "not right now." He finished the game playing 29 minutes, five minutes less than his season average, recording nine points and 14 rebounds in the loss:
"It's real sore. Everything on (the right) side (of my body) is hurting pretty bad right now. I'm going to try as much as I can but I don't want to cause more damage to my shoulder. I don't want to (miss any games), but we'll see."
Kobe Bryant said he's not worried about it and that the pain will go away, with head coach Mike D'Antoni adding that hopefully it will be gone by Thursday when the Lakers are on the road again to play the Timberwolves in Minnesota.
I agree absolutely with you. Loose the battle if you want to win the war. Great post

Manilow Manorexic- An Actual Fear or Tabloid Fodder?
Last week's diet poll obviously hit home for a lot of you- but in a way that I had not expected. I confess to being a guy who is conscious of my weight and I have dieted. I see nothing wrong with wanting to fit into a pair of skinny jeans but thought I was of a minority. However, that appears not to be the case; 57% of you voted that there was nothing wrong with watching your weight and had therefore dieted.
I know that most of you are unlikely to be suffering from an eating disorder but it appears that 'Manorexia' is no longer a fad-word put out by editors trying to fill pages of a cheap magazine but a reality edging it's way into pop culture.

2013 - 2014 Residence Hall Meal Plan Rates
All University Housing residents that live in suites without kitchens are required to choose a meal plan.
Cambridge Commons Upgrade/Sandburg East Admin Fee
All residents who reside in a Cambridge Commons Upgrade or East Tower suite are required to pay an administrative fee of $1,512.00 per academic year, or $756.00 per semester.
Meal Plan Structure
Each meal plan includes in administration fee. This fee is collected to cover the fixed cost of dining facilities, such as equipment, maintenance, and labor. When students use their meal plan to purchase food in the cafeteria-style dining facilities (Cambridge Commons, RiverView and Sandburg Cafeterias and Sandburg Palm Gardens) they will be charged 50% of the cash price for each item. So, as students purchase food throughout the semester, they are essentially getting the administration fee back in the form of their discount.
Adding Money to Your Meal Plan
Money can be added to meal plans at any time. Additional deposits are dollar-for-dollar — the administration fee is charged only once per semester. Meal plan additions can be done at:
- uwm.managemyid.com
- Cash Value Center located near Sandburg C134
Meal Plan Refunds
If a positive balance remains on a student's meal plan at the end of the academic year, it will be refunded as a credit to his/her PAWS account less a $10 administrative fee. Refunds are typically processed on or around July 1 for the preceding academic year.

Which abilities would you give them as their final one? So far they all can have two.
Also, this is mainly from a logical point of view, something like Magic Guard Charizard or Wonderguard Swampert, however much better it would make them at battling, is not a logical choice so try to keep them within the realms of possibility.
I'll start off.
I think Intimidate would be a nice pick for Serperior. Yeah Contrary is better blah blah; however, according to the dex it has the ability to stop foes in their tracks by glaring at them (obvious nod towards the move Glare too), which I also think would make sense for Intimidate, as it's basically intimidating the enemy. It would also mesh well with its decent defenses and switching into physical attackers. Shed Skin is another obvious choice for it; since it doesn't have access to Aromatherapy (normally), it would also be quite useful.

NISD student takes ID badge protest to federal court
Andrea Hernandez: ID badge violates religious beliefs
A John Jay Science & Engineering Academy student who claims she was unfairly removed from school last month for refusing to wear an ID badge containing a microchip took her fight to federal court Monday.
Andrea Hernandez voiced her claim to U.S. Judge Orlando Garcia during a hearing.
"I earned my way into this school, and for them to kick me out due to my religious objections is unfair," Hernandez said.
Hernandez claims the badges, which monitor a students location while on campus, fit the biblical definition of "the mark of the beast."
The sophomore was granted a temporary injunction in state district court last month and was allowed to return to classes while her case was moved to federal court.
The district is conducting a pilot program in two schools to determine whether it will use badges district wide. The district says the microchip program helps it keep better track of students on campus. The program translates into money, since the district has more accurate attendance figures, Northside Independent School District Superintendent Brian Woods said.
Woods said the district has offered to allow Hernandez to wear the ID badge with the microchip removed.
"We have made what we think is a reasonable attempt to accommodate her religious objection," Woods said.
Hernandez' father says the badge itself represents the devil, and he feels they have a religious responsibility to object to them.
"We must share the word of God – we are the watchmen," he said. "If we see this and do not tell people about it, the blood of the people will be on our hands," Hernandez said.
Garcia will take the case under advisement and will issue a written ruling later this week.

Very nice flavor from this. 380 produces a very balanced German wheat flavor with nice spice, fruit, and banana. I have tried other strains, including those purported to be based on Weihenstephan 68, and it has not worked well for me. It's not just banana and bubble gum. Aroma from WLP380 is lightly spicy (nutmeg, allspice), clovey, slightly stone fruit, banana is present in noticeable amounts too. Less than some other strains, but still clearly there. If you've been unhappy with other strains and want more spice in a weizen, this might work.
I fermented a 1.052 dunkenweizen and a 1.080 weizenbock. The flavor compliments the darker weizen beers quite well. I fermented at 60F in an open fermenter. Seems like about a 24 hour lag and beers were finished in 10-14 days. The weizenbock was a repitch from the dunkel that I top cropped. It was about 80% attenuated by day four so the repitch was pretty brisk at fermenting.
The attenuation listed is not what I experienced. Plan for about a 73% attenuation. But don't be surprised to see a 70-74% attenuation rather than the 80%. I got a little bit of sulfur towards the end but very minimal. Oxygenate and use some nutrient as well. To eek out a bit more attenuation, I raised the temp to 68F for about a week.
Compared to other weizen yeasts the flocculation was the same: slow and poor. Overall a pretty solid yeast.
This yeast is amazing and delicious. I made a starter and pitched at 68 F. Despite the starter, it was 12 hours before a krausen began to form but it was huge! I made a 5 gallon batch in a 6 gallon plastic bucket and there was no where enough headspace - foam was bubbling through the airlock to the point where I had to add water to it every 1-2 hours. I would strongly recommend and extra 1.5 gallons of headspace and/or a blowoff tube in plac! e of the airlock. It's worth it!
This stuff ROCKS! If you use this yeast, be sure to use a "blow-off tube." An ordinary airlock will have krausen coming through it within a day!
I'm very happy with this yeast strain, but I'm noticing a very pronounced banana smell with the yeast. This is something I wasn't expecting with this yeast strain, but I'm pleasantly surprised by it.
Brewed a standard Hefeweizen and the final product was very spicy and full of clove, with a little banana. This is about the opposite of WLP300 in terms of the clove/banana profile in my experience. Both are great strains, when I want clove I go with this one. Fermentation was quick and I recommend a blow-off tube.
This yeast was excellent for the darker wheat I brewed. Spicier and less fruity character made for a good beer for cooler fall and winter evenings.
This is my favorite hefe yeast. I know the package says optimal temp is 66-70. Make a starter and try it between 62-62. You will get this wonderful spiciness with a hint of clove. It is absolutely fantastic!
This Heffeweizen IV yeast can be a bit cranky. I've used it a couple of times. The first time I had a lag time of 96 to 104 hours. This was without a starter. The second time I used it I made a starter and happily the yeast took off within 24 hours. I highly, highly recommend that you use a starter with this yeast. It's worth the effort.
This makes a very drinkable, citrusy weizen, and with just the right amount of bitterness added, makes a perfect summer-time hefe. I've also made a dunkelweizen with this using the yeast cake of a previous weizen brew (at about 68-70F), but probably won't again, as I prefer the banana yeast notes from other hefeweizen yeasts to match the maltiness in a dunkelweizen. I think the clove/malt combo could work in a dunkel, but this gave out too much citrus for my taste in a dunkel. Perhaps a lower fermentation temp would yield the clove without the citrus.
The unusual spicy and slightly tart flavor plus fruity aroma reminds me much of Unibroue's products. I made a simple 50/50 pilsner and winter wheat beer using the Hefeweizen IV strain this fall (end of September 2008.) It fermented at 68 F and went to bottles after 14 days. By Christmas the conditioned beer was clear and very flavorful. It was the most appreciated Christmas treat that I gave out this year.
Incredibly slow starter out of the tube (I had two tubes fermenting two batches, both with months until the expiration date) and they took over 72 hours be begin noticeable fermentation. In the future, I will be making a starter. I purposely did not make a starter because I wanted some of the ester profiles produced by cell multiplication.
I recently brewed and kegged 5 U.S. gallons with WLP380 when making a traditional all-grain hefeweizen. It really turned out nice – spot on. This yeast produces just the right amount of clove/banana. It's not too overwhelming, as can occur in some cases. I made a 2 pint starter with 1.5 cups of light DME. The starter fermented for 30 hours prior to pitching. I pitched around midnight and kept it at 70 degrees F. At 6 a.m. when I checked on it, it was vigorously fermenting – good thing I had a blow-off hose on it! So I highly recommend this yeast for a hefe; it worked well for me.
This Hefe yeast is wonderful. I have used it 4 or 5 times with great results every time. I have not made a starter, but I do blow O2 into my wert for about 30 minutes while I am cooling it. I feel this helps it cool down and dissolves more O2 into the wert. Takes off within 24 hours of pitching. The only precaution I suggest is make sure you have ample room in the top of your fermenter, because you may loose a lot of beer due to the vigorous nature of this yeast.
Of all the hefe, wit, and wheat beer yeasts out there, this has to be one of the most ideal for Roggenbier. It has the clove notes and very faint fruit notes on finish. I've been trying to perfect my Roggenbier and have always had a slight sour note from other wit yeast strains, which, though fine for wit's, is not a characteristics that fits the 15D style. One last note to the commenter above who aerates in hot wort...you may be getting flavors you didn't expect. Never aerate in hot wort unless you want extreme oxidation and the near undrinkable off flavors that come with it...
Ale came out great!. Nice 4-vinyl guaiacol - cloves (from ferulic acid I guess) and isoamyl acetate (from transaminaition of leucine - Ehrlich rxn) flavors. Giving the Distinguished Alumini presentation this month and taking a case of this brew for sampling.
I've used this sample in three brews to date. I've never been able to get an attenuation rate above 70%. Using your 300 strain I get much better attenuation. How can I get the level of attenuation you claim for this yeast?
The ranges we use are Apparent Attenuation Ranges, and they do not take into account different worts. The numbers are a general range, but several factors (oxygen, temperature, nutrients, gravity) will affect the actual attenuation for most beers.
I need a better understanding of how to achieve the levels of attenuation you claim.
Again, our figures are apparent. Attenuation does differ between strains. Perhaps you are losing yeast from blow off? And if you shake the carboy a couple times during fermentation, this will keep the yeast in suspension. Also, this yeast does require more oxygen and you may be under aerating.

Tertial Chandelier
Materials: Tertial lamps, aluminum square tube, electric connectors, 1,5 mm wire
Description: I started by reversing the lamp holder position of 6 Tertial lamps so that they could rotate down when the chandelier was in the ceiling. To do that I had to remove de lamp holders, turn them around and reconnect them. The plugs were cut off.
I used a 5 cm square aluminum tube 140 cm long and made two eyelets for ceiling hanging.
The holes for the lamps are 40 cm apart (10 cm from edges); the lamps were secured in position with 1,5 mm thick wire rings attached to their spokes.
The cables were connected and the chandelier was ready!

that is totally cool, what is the heat like, and what are the light bulbs you are using?
I'm using low consumption bulbs — 5W — which look like ping-pong balls; there are no heat problems at all.
This was unique lighting in a house. Movable and it can face anywhere.
Muito bom resultado!
Great! I would love to make one, it gets really cheap, but my ceilings aren't that high =/
Muito bom mesmo, já agora, se eles aguentam-se mais junto ao tecto ou ficam sempre para baixo?
Por si só não fica mais junto ao tecto, teria de apertar mais os parafusos.
Como está sobre a mesa de jantar a altura é a ideal e a luz muito agradável.

Tourette syndrome
Definition of Gilles de la Tourette syndrome
Gilles de la Tourette syndrome is a disorder of the nervous system that causes a person to make repeated and uncontrolled (involuntary) rapid movements and sounds (vocalizations) called tics. The disorder is commonly called Tourette syndrome.
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
Tourette syndrome is named for Georges Gilles de la Tourette, who first described this disorder in 1885. There is strong evidence that Tourette syndrome is passed down through families, although the gene has not yet been found.
Most affected people first notice symptoms of Tourette syndrome during childhood, between ages 7 and 10.
Signs and tests
There are no lab tests to diagnose Tourette syndrome. However, a health care provider should do an examination to rule out other causes of these symptoms.
Many patients with Tourette syndrome have very minor symptoms. In this case, they are usually not treated, because the side effects of the medications may be worse than the symptoms of the condition.
Expectations (prognosis)
Most patients improve in early adulthood. Although 1 in 4 patients may be symptom-free for a few years, only 8% of patients have symptoms completely go away without returning.
