Celebrate the New Year in style
Our CHRISTMAS and NEW YEAR TRIPS are filling up quickly.
Book NOW to secure your spot. This could be your adventure of a lifetime!
Important Itinerary ChangeFrom 2015, Andaman Snorkel Discovery has been running our snorkel liveaboard to the Surin Islands National Park, including Richelieu Rock and to Koh Bon and Koh Tachai in the Similan Islands National Park.
Our aim is to show you the best snorkel spots and the most beautiful islands off the beaten track.
Unfortunately, due to the ever increasing number of visitors to the main nine Similan Islands and the continued deterioration of corals and marine life there, it is becoming more and more difficult to stick to our company's philosophy taking our guests to this area.
Sharing beaches and snorkel spots with more than fifty speedboats and tens of thousands of other snorkelers does not fit with our "off the beaten track" motto.
This type of mass tourism has a huge negative effect on the natural resources of these famous nine islands and is something Andaman Snorkel Discovery does not want to be part of.
Instead our tours can now concentrate more on the less visited areas of the Similan National Park while continuing to operate our eco-friendly, eco-responsible snorkel trips.
Similan & Surin Snorkeling Liveaboards

Latest from our Blog
An Old Reef Rediscovered
Several years ago I snorkelled at Jack Bay Reef at the Surin Islands. It was so sad to see how the El Niño of 2010 had effected the reef. The El Niño had caused coral bleaching on a massive scale here and most of the reef was destroyed.
The once healthy corals had turned to limestone skeletons or lay as rubble on the ocean floor. A few fish remained but not enough to gain any positives from this desolate scene.
The Old Man Of Surin
If you ask him how old he is, he can't tell his age but he is sure he is over 80 years old. He is of an older generation, a time not so long ago when his people would sit around camp fires telling the stories of their past. The wonderful tales of mermaids, turtles, snakes, monkeys, spirits and ghosts. The traditional folk tales of the Moken. For he is their Shaman.
He also left the Surin Island three years ago when his wife became sick. Read more

The art scene in Brooklyn will be officially hot this summer, twice, with double-barreled events sponsored by the city's largest artist-run organization. The fifth annual Summer Show, "Hot!" of the Brooklyn Waterfront Artists Coalition (BWAC) will open July 26 in its historic Civil War-era warehouse galleries in Brooklyn's booming Red Hook section.
And, setting the stage July 12, at the same dramatic venue, BWAC will present a special event, 2nd Saturday. This specially curated section will feature large pieces set for the "Hot!" summer show and will fill the cavernous ground floor of the historic warehouse. Celebrating the diversity that is Brooklyn, there will be South African art, a free tasting of Madiba's South Africa cuisine and a free concert of South African music at 3 p.m.
"Hot!" will be open weekends from July 26 to August 17, with more than 700 paintings, drawings, sculpture, photographs, and multi-media works by BWAC members.
As always with BWAC, most of the art works on display are for sale, for a wide range of prices. Buyers may take home their work at the time of purchase.
The work of two artists is being featured in the "Hot!" show. Tom Vega (www.tomvega.com) is an artist who works in acrylics. His work has been shown in Manhattan galleries and 20 of his large acrylics hang on the set of the TV reality series "The Bachelorette."
The landscape theme continues with the work of Judith Eloise Hooper, the other featured artist. She works in ceramic, collage, and on paper and in the show, she exhibits her ceramic take on what she calls aerial landscapes.
Another feature of the show is "What's the Hook?", a neighborhood photography project designed to document a single week in the life of Red Hook, one of New York City's unique and rapidly changing neighborhoods. In seven ordinary days more than 120 people produced 1,000 extraordinary photos of what Red Hook means to them.
Also highlighted in the show, in keeping with BWAC's waterfront identity is "Waterline: Design Ideas for the Urban Estuary Edge in Red Hook". The exhibitors are graduate students in the landscape architecture program at The City College of New York.
A series of live acoustic musical performances of all genres, "UnPlugged in Red Hook," will take place during the run of the show. Eight concerts are scheduled, including classical, jazz, blue grass, and big-band music. And, on August 3, the Communicable Arts group will be doing a production of Shakespeare's "Much Ado About Nothing." All these performances are free.
The Brooklyn Craft Festival, co-sponsored by NY Creates, will adjoin the "Hot!" show, on the waterfront esplanade. The juried show will include welded bowls, ceramics, jewelry, dolls, one-of-a-kind designer clothes, and many more unique items.
A silent auction of selected contributed art works will run throughout the show, enabling BWAC to raise money to help maintain the gallery space.
Red Hook businessman Greg O'Connell, who has been a guiding light of the Red Hook Renaissance, donates the exhibition space in the 25,000 square foot warehouse that dates to the Civil War. Since BWAC started showing in Red Hook in 1992, the area has blossomed into a destination for people interested in art, dining, bar-hopping, and shopping (Fairway and IKEA).
"Hot!" runs 1-6 p.m. and the exhibition is at 499 Van Brunt Street in Red Hook. For more, visit www.bwac.org or call 718-596-2506.

Theater In-Between Days
posted by January 14 at 11:02 AMon
Interim number one: Vivian Phillips, a former Paul Schell spokesperson and co-director of the Hansberry Project ("a professional black theatre company dedicated to the artistic exploration of African American life, history and culture"), has been appointed interim director at Langston Hughes Performing Arts Center.
Jackie Moscou, the former (maybe former?) director of LHPAC is still on administrative leave (as she has been for months) and is still the subject of a mysterious investigation (as she has been for months). Still, nobody seems to know anything about anything.
Interim number two: Kevin Maifeld, former managing director at Seattle Children's Theater, has been appointed interim managing director at Intiman Theatre while its board looks for someone to replace Laura Penn, the outgoing managing director. The search for Penn's replacement is led by Greg Kandel, the man who led the national search that resulted in the hiring of Bart Sherand whose name is an anagram for "darn keg leg."

At the run time, another JPanel(called child) is added to the previous jPanel which is inside the JScrollPane of the JDialog.I want to get the size of the 'child' JPanel size. Before and after adding the 'child' JPanel to the 'container' JPanel, sizes of 'child' and 'container' JPanels are shown as 0 0. (

Harley Quinn's Greatest Moments from "Batman: The Animated Series"
TV, Comic Books
Someone please explain to me why, in this golden age of reprints, when every 20th century cartoonist under the sun and their dog is getting the lavish, fancy-shmancy book collection treatment, do we still not have a decent, definitive collection of Carl Barks' work?
It's kind of frustrating and more than a bit confounding. Here is an artist who, if you believe all that's been written about him (and there's been quite a lot written about him over the years), was one of the finest and most influential storytellers to come out of the comics medium (despite, it should be noted, the fact that he was working on an already well-established licensed property). He is beloved the world over (that's not hyperbole, he really is). He has had streets and asteroids named after him. Virtually every funny animal and all-ages comic (and beyond) that's come down the pike since bears his mark. Certainly every Disney comic since then follows his basic blueprint. George Lucas and Steve Spielberg have cribbed from him. That whole DuckTales TV show was based on his stories.
One of his few contemporaries equal in stature, John Stanley, has been undergoing a renaissance of late thanks to handsome editions from Dark Horse and Drawn & Quarterly, but Barks remains, in my opinion, ill-used and ill-treated, at least in his home country, if not abroad.
It's not as though attempts to collect his work haven't been made before. The best known is probably the Carl Barks Library, published by the long-extinct Another Rainbow back in the 1980s. These enormous, slipcovered volumes collected Barks' work in black and white. They were rather costly at the time and have become even more so now, assuming you can actually track down a volume or two off of eBay they're scarcer than hen's teeth.
Gladstone attempted a more affordable version of the Library in the '90s, this time in color. These were slim, comic book sized arranged according to the various titles Barks worked on (Uncle Scrooge, Donald Duck, etc.). At the time I found the series to be somewhat flimsy in appearance — I wanted something that would sit sturdily and nicely on my bookshelf. Now I'm sorry I didn't attempt to collect them at the time, as they've since become, again, rare and gone up in price (though not completely unaffordable).
Since then, the only way to experience Barks' work is through reprint anthologies. Gemstone, Steve Geppi's publishing company, made a final go of things in 2006 with two volumes of The Greatest Duck Tales Stories, which reprinted Barks tales that the TV directly adapted from, before they lost the Disney license altogether. They're decent enough books — a good intial primer for newbies and kids — but I'm looking for something more authoritative and definitive, that makes good use of modern printing technologies.
Really, what I'm looking for is something along the lines of The Collected Works of Carl Barks, a lavish series from Scandinavian publisher Egmont that was published a few years back in Europe. It contained every single story Barks did, even those where he only served as writer or artist, along with tons of supplementary material Gemstone had plans to release an American version of the collection, but it never made it past the Amazon.com preorder stage, as Gemstone lost the Disney license soon after.
Egmont's garish, overly-PhotoShoped coloring job has been widely criticized, but it still remains the shining city on a hill for North American Barks fans who would like to his work receive the treatment and respect it deserves. I don't know why his work hasn't been collected in such a fashion yet (I suspect there are legal reasons) but some publisher somewhere needs to get a new collection of Barks' Duck stories out to he public and soon. He's late enough to the party as it is.
From your lips to some enterprising publisher's ears…
The first comic I ever bought with my own money was a Gladstone Donald Duck comic. I knew from the moment I saw his work that he was my favorite cartoonist, and he still is to this day.
I totally agree with you. i would also like to have a similar collection with the works of Barks only worthy sucessor, Don Rosa. But who am i kidding? this will always be a dream…
I am equally astounded. It seemed like Boom Kids was getting ready to do something like that. They released at least one hardcover of Carl Barks material, sort of a greatest hits. I figured that an exhaustive collection would follow.
I would actually prefer a series of more affordable trade paperbacks. I understand the collectors' desire for high end archival hardcover omnibus editions, but Carl Barks should be as affordable and accessible as possible. Release a chronological reprinting of the entire Uncle Scrooge/Donald Duck universe by Carl Barks in affordable soft cover trades.
I kick myself on a regular basis for not buying those Gladstone albums. (Although weren't they magazine-sized, not comic-sized? I could have sworn they were that slightly larger size.) And while I'd also love to see a gorgeous archival set released, like Corey I would be pleased with a series of affordable softcovers, too. My wallet would probably be more pleased, for that matter.
I couldn't agree more. Since first learning about Barks a few years ago, I've been on a constant hunt to find a decent collection of his work…to no avail. This post is helpful, on the one hand, because now I can be completely sure that there's nothing I missed. But on the other hand, the fact that there really hasn't been anything to miss is disappointing in and of itself. I guess all we can do at this point is hope that Boom will eventually see fit to release this material, in one way or another.
This is such an obvious choice for getting collected that I imagine that there's something preventing Boom from doing so, like a convoluted ownership disagreement or perhaps they're working on it right now as we speak and the delay is due to them trying to make it the most amazing collection the world has ever seen. Fingers crossed it's the latter.
Corey — I'd be happy with either at this point
Greg — Now that I think about it, you're probably right. They probably were a bit larger than the standard comic book size.
Mike — I hope you're right.
I know that at one point in time, some of his works were lost, thereby making a complete library next to impossible. That may not be the case now, IDK.
But I would be interested in an Almost complete set if BOOM was willing to print it.
A partial reason why there hasn't been a serious collection of Carl Bark's works is that he created a lot of stories. A site that has every Duck story he ever wrote & drew comes to an astounding total of 658 titles. Even if only 100 of these were one-pagers, that's still a lot, considering some of his stories could go from the range of 8-32 pages. Even Don Rosa's impressive output only amounts to 86 stories.
Trying to compile & organize these stories would be a daunting task. What I would've liked to have seen was a stronger push for the collaboration between Barks & Rosa's works, Barks being the original, with the Don Rosa sequel as a follow-up. It'd also give some better context on what Rosa was defining his story from.
I'm also a little disappointed with the re-release of the Life & Times of Scrooge book – it was perfectly fine as one volume. Releasing it as two books is counter-productive for repeat business, and is one more book that's now being hiked up on Ebay.
I won't say where the online Barks & Rosa comics are, but they should be available to anyone willing to do a little searching.
Might as well add things we all learned from those educational Scrooge comics:
Yes, those Gladstone albums were gloriously oversized I have a box full of them and live them. I just wish I had collected all the series now, but I'm happy with what I have.
I'd love a serious HC series to collect Barks' work, even if it was to be 30 volumes long. It would be worth it. Mostly. Some of the 1960s stuff isn't all that attractive to me.
Know what else I'd like? An art book showing all his Duck paintings. Geppi owns a bunch of those. But I'd like to see as many as possible in an oversized art book. Can we get Dark
Horse or IDW in that, ya think? ::sigh::
the best and complete barks collection is the last italian version.
was edited last year in collaboration with one of the big italian newspaper.
is composed by 48 books and collect every barks story, also the non duck family stories, all in chronological order, with great articles and essays by the most important disney italian critics.
actually in italy the complete floyd gottfredson is on going.
As much as I'd like everything to match, I've been hodgepodging a Barks collection for some time out of the B&W slipcases and the Gladstone "Carl Barks Library in Color." The latter is not especially hard to find (well, the Scrooges are) in shops. Lots of places stocked up, it seems, and never really moved them, which is great for me but may explain the financial concerns with a mass reprinting.
So disappointing– Gemstone was right on the brink of both a definitive Barks AND a definitive Rosa collection, and now it doesn't look like Boom has plans for anything like that. Their collections seem more like "kid stuff" and I can't say I care for their hardcover reissue of the Life Of Scrooge– it's more expensive than the Gemstone (since it's chopped into TWO hardcovers where Gemstone was one trade paperback) and it's not even a particularly NICE hardcover. I have very little faith that they will be the ones to do a Complete Barks series, and if they do, based on the quality of the Disney books they've done so far, I doubt they would do it right.
At this point, if Boom truly has no plans to do a definitive Barks series, I wish they'd allow some other publisher to handle it and do it right. Certainly, Fantagraphics or Drawn & Quarterly or even IDW would know how to truly collect Barks (and Rosa) in a way that would satisfy old Barks fans and attract new ones.
(And I agree that while there is an upside to a hardcover slipcase edition, a series of nice trade paperbacks would probably be even better. If I had to choose one or the other, I'd prefer that these would be books that more people would buy and read rather than ONLY catering to diehard fans and collectors.)
I hope this happens. It makes no sense that some of the most acclaimed and entertaining comics of all time would remain uncollected while so many obscurities are getting the "complete works" treatment…
I cannot wait for the appearance of an original non cencored full color hardcover edition of all the Barks stories, one-pagers and coverpage artwork. Why has it been done in other languages like italian, danish, swedish, german and dutch, but not in the original language?? I would expect that the there would be a much bigger market for such an original edition, also internationally.
I completely agree. I would love an affordable definitive collection of Bark's work in color nicely hard bound. The man was a genius and this needs to be done !
I have thought about this and the only answer I can come up with is that Carl Barks had a way of thinking that is both funny, entertaining and strangely truthful. It is this last part that makes me think that there is some plot to submarine any type of individual thinking. We are all being robotized in our day to day lives and as it was said in Dr. Who's episode "The Day of the Dalek's"

Rehab's Role in Treating Addiction
Experts explain the treatment process at rehab clinics--for celebrities and for regular folks.
By Richard Sine
Reviewed By Louise Chang, MD
Actor Michael Douglas, radio commentator Rush Limbaugh, and former congressman Mark Foley might seem to have little in common, but there's one experience they do share: rehab.
Hardly a week goes by that we don't hear of some new high-profile actor, singer, or politician checking into a center to treat a drug or alcohol problem. And when a celebrity goes to rehab, it's often to an exclusive facility with marble baths, ocean views, and a full spa.
It's enough to give addiction treatment a bad name. A 30-day stay in a rehab clinic used to be a common treatment for addicts. But today it's rarely covered by insurance, and thus too costly for most Americans. Does that mean that effective treatment is only for the rich and famous?
Fortunately, the answer is no. Outpatient treatment has proven to be equally effective for many addicts, experts say. Either way, not even the fanciest program can guarantee successful treatment. Success also requires a lifelong effort by the patient to stay clean.

Cherwell shortens autoclave validation process
DataTrace® wireless data logger cuts validation time for JPen Medical
Since no wiring is required, DataTrace probes can be readily used to measure temperature and pressure directly inside an autoclave for full validation with FDA 21CFR11 compliance and minimal equipment downtime. Traditional autoclave validation involves the complex and protracted task of introducing many thermocouple wires into an autoclave chamber.
Taking an autoclave apart to fit wired probes through a port and then placing them securely within a load can prove extremely time-consuming. Furthermore, such thermocouples are not robust and require pre and post verification to identify any offset. "I knew there had to be an easier way of testing and validating autoclaves, which can take up to four hours when using wired thermocouples;
"By using DataTrace, the whole process can take as little as 45 minutes - an autoclave cycle - since there is no need to calibrate the system and the wireless probes are compact and tough and can be simply placed directly inside the autoclave chamber," added Scott Renshaw-Harris. "Our own customer convenience is very important to us and Cherwell's solution means we can minimise their disruption. Not only can we cut our time on-site by hours, but now that we don't have to take a unit apart and rebuild it, we can completely eliminate potential risk of subsequent leak issues."
JPen Medical engineers have also found the Cherwell system to be very portable and easy to use with minimal training required. "Set up is very straight forward and takes just 5 minutes on the laptop, with readily accessible help files if ever needed. Additionally, before purchasing DataTrace, we knew Cherwell were a well-respected company and they have certainly proved to be very proactively helpful and knowledgeable about our business and needs," confirmed Scott Renshaw-Harris.
Following its highly successful application of DataTrace wireless dataloggers for autoclave validation in medical environments, JPen Medical is also considering their use for further applications, such as fridge and freezer validation. Future plans also include additional enhancements to customer convenience. Due to the simplicity of Cherwell's system, the company aims to provide on-site validation report print outs, so giving customers real-time results.

Comments about 'Archie to be shot saving gay friend in comic book'

Comic books have, over the years, tackled tough issues woven into other story
lines. Usually this has been done in the super-hero style books, or in series
designed to tell dramatic stores based in real life or historical situations.
I have always seen Archie comics as fluff, illustrated jokes for little kids.
I was impressed when the Keven Keller character was introduced because he reflected real-world people known to most tweens and teens today, where they know and go to school with peers who are gay or lesbian. It seemed edgy, but at the same time it was just funny-book reflection, no more surprising than seeing Betty and Veronica texting or mentioning social media.
This story line, however, takes Archie to a whole new level, exploring the hate and threats that gay men and lesbians face on a daily basis. I not only applaud the company for this story, I will buy both issues to support them and see how they handle the story.
Bravo, Archie. I salute you!

Did I say anything about the issue being overblown, or is that you once again reading unduly into other people's intentions and writings... as has often happened in the past?
If we want gays to be thought of as an everyday part of society, then people have to quit creating scenarios where they are not, and making them appear different or unusual, as the premise to this story does, as well as the reactionary comments... such as yours.
Whenever attention is continually directed as an issue beyond a certain point (regardless of the intention), then that issue ensues. It's a fact.
Think about it and then someday you might understand.

It takes guts to spurn a tie and go for two and the victory. It's a decision that often requires a coach to reach deep into his playbook for something fancy and unexpected.
Oregon State coach Mike Riley thought about doing that in the Sun Bowl against Missouri after tailback Yvenson Bernard, the Beavers' emotional leader, suggested they go for two during an official review of the touchdown play with 22 seconds remaining that had set the game on the cusp of overtime.
Riley said, sure. And he decided that his fancy-pants, pass-happy Pac-10 team was going to run it right up the middle.
"I just really wanted to give it to Yvenson," Riley said. "You know how in poker you go all-in? Well, we went all-in."
When Bernard twisted into the end zone for a 39-38 victory, the Beavers drew a straight flush on the river card.
It was a fitting capper for one of the best seasons in program history, and Riley is counting on the thrills of a 10-4 finish and a final No. 21 ranking carrying over into spring practice, which begins April 2.
With 17 starters back from a team that ended USC's 27-game Pac-10 winning streak, the Beavers believe they will be in the hunt for the conference crown, even if the Trojans are touted as national title favorites.
And here's something else buoying the Beavers: This experienced group overcame a humiliating nationally televised loss to Boise State -- a 42-14 defeat in which they appeared schematically unsound and emotionally fragile -- and transformed into a team that played its best when the screws tightened. Five of their victories were secured during the waning moments.
"The mental toughness is huge to me," said Riley, whose job appeared to be at risk during the 2-3 start. "We want that to be the standard."
The standard line when assessing the Pac-10 is experience at quarterback is a prerequisite for success, though there are notable exceptions almost annually -- see USC's John David Booty and California's Nate Longshore last season. With the departure of two-year starter Matt Moore, that is an issue for the Beavers. All eyes will be on the battle between sophomores Sean Canfield and Lyle Moevao.
The pair couldn't be more different. Canfield, a 6-foot-4, 220-pound lefty, is a touted prototype quarterback who, according to Riley, throws "a beautiful ball." Most fans have penciled him in as the starter.
Not so fast. Moevao, perhaps 6-foot in heels, is a scrappy, 225-pound JC transfer who's a good athlete and leader with a knack for creative playmaking. Think of a more athletic Jonathan Smith.
Canfield remains the favorite. But the job isn't going to be handed to him.
"Quarterback is obviously the key," Bernard said. "It's going to be a tough competition. I feel like Lyle is just as good as Canfield."
If Bernard sounds like he's got coachspeak down, blowing on the fires of a position battle, it shouldn't be a surprise. The first-team all-conference runner owns 2,648 rushing yards, 611 receiving yards and 27 touchdowns as a two-year starter. No one questions that he's the Beaver with the biggest teeth.
"He is a warrior," Riley said. "He is as well-respected a player on a team as I've ever had."
With Bernard, four of five starters back on the line and a strong receiving corps topped by Sammie Stroughter, whoever wins the quarterback job will have plenty of help.
A young tight end will need to step up to replace Joe Newton -- sophomores Howard Croom and John Reese both played last season as true freshmen -- while junior Tavita Thompson is expected to step in at left tackle for the conference's most experienced offensive line.
The defense is strong at linebacker, where seniors Derrick Doggett, Joey LaRocque and Alan Darlin are back. Doggett's the athlete; LaRocque led the team with 98 tackles; Darlin had 12.5 tackles for a loss. OSU's linebacking crew is second only to USC in the conference.
Hot spots this spring are two vacancies on the defensive line and replacing strong safety Sabby Piscitelli. Those voids aren't causing too much concern. The Beavers rotated eight linemen last year, so experience isn't an issue. Senior end Dorian Smith wasn't listed as a starter, but he led the team with nine sacks. The safety spots will be split between senior Daniel Drayton and juniors Al Afalava and Bryan Payton, though redshirt freshman James Dockery could get into the mix.
Oh, and kicker Alexis Serna, owner of the second-most points among active players with 292, is back for his 17th year of eligibility. Kidding. His 12th.
While the school's official spring preview touts the Beavers as aiming for their fifth bowl game in six years, Riley, Bernard and company might have their sights set a little higher. Having bested the Trojans, they aren't yielding anything.
"I feel like the Pac-10 is anybody's game," Bernard said.

Physician-Patient Communications
760 F.3d 1195 (11th Cir. 2014)
The issue in this case is whether a state law that restricts physicians' communications regarding their patients' firearm ownership violates the First Amendment.
AMA interest
The AMA encourages its members to reduce firearm morbidity and mortality by asking their patients about household firearms and educating their patients about the dangers such firearms may pose. The AMA opposes laws that restrict physicians from discussing firearms safety with their patients.
Case summary
Florida enacted the Firearms Owner's Privacy Law (FOPL), which prohibits health care providers from (i) intentionally recording information concerning firearm ownership in a patient's medical record if the information is not relevant to the patient's medical care or safety or the safety of others; (ii) asking a patient whether he or she owns a firearm unless the information is relevant to the patient's medical care or safety or the safety of others: (iii) discriminating against a patient based solely on firearms ownership; and (iv) unnecessarily harassing a patient about firearm ownership. Violation of the law constitutes grounds for discipline under the Florida licensure statutes.
Three physicians and the Florida chapters of the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Academy of Family Physicians, and the American College of Physicians sued several Florida government officials to prevent enforcement of the FOPL. The suit, organized and effectively prosecuted by the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence, alleged that FOPL violated the rights of free speech between physician and patient guaranteed under the First and Fourteenth Amendments of the United States Constitution.
The trial court found that certain sections of the Firearms Owner's Privacy Law interfered with physicians' right of free speech, and the judge entered a summary judgment which prohibited the enforcement of the invalid portions of the law. The State of Florida appealed to the Eleventh Circuit.
On July 25, 2014, a panel of the Eleventh Circuit, by a split decision, held that physician communications with patients were entitled to only minimal protection under the First Amendment. As a result, physicians can be required to tailor their patient communications to further a state's political agenda, so long as the state can advance a minimally rational basis for its restrictions on the physicians' communications. Thus, FOPL was deemed facially constitutional, and the lower court was reversed.
However, on July 28, 2015, the same Eleventh Circuit panel, on its own volition filed a decision to substitute for its earlier ruling (which it had withdrawn without public notice). The panel reached the same decision on July 28, 2015 as it had in the July 25, 2014 apparent ruling, but with more care given to the legal precedents that apply to First Amendment cases of this nature. The new opinion found that physician speech was subject to "intermediate scrutiny" under the First Amendment.
The plaintiffs moved for rehearing en banc of the July 28, 2015 ruling. On September 11, 2015, the Eleventh Circuit ordered the parties to brief the issue of whether "strict" First Amendment scrutiny, rather than intermediate scrutiny, should apply.
On September 11, 2015, the Eleventh Circuit ordered the parties to submit supplemental briefs on whether a recent Supreme Court ruling required that the Firearms Owner's Privacy Law be subjected to strict scrutiny under the First Amendment and, if so, whether it could withstand such a test. The parties submitted their supplemental briefs, and the case is under advisement.
AMA involvement
The AMA, organized a coalition of several national specialty medical societies as amici and wrote and filed an amicus brief in the Eleventh Circuit, in support of the physician plaintiffs as part of the initial appeal. The AMA also wrote and filed an amicus brief in support of the petition for rehearing.

Some light in Wolves' loss | Soccer
Not all was bad in Coupeville's 10-1 soccer loss at Cedarcrest High School Wednesday, April 16.
"There were some stretches where we played quite well," Coupeville coach Kyle Nelson said. "Unfortunately there were some times where we let down."
Zane Bundy, with an assist from Abraham Leyva Elenes, scored the Wolves' goal.
"Some of Cedarcrest's goals were just good play on their part," Nelson said. "They were a quality opponent who were playing very well on their home field. We will regroup and get ready for the next game."
The Red Wolves lifted their record to 5-2 (6-3); Coupeville is now 3-5 (4-5).
The next game is a big one: at South Whidbey (5-2-1, 7-2-1) at 6 p.m. Friday, April 18.

The new Drobo Pro has been announced. Photographers have long been vocal about the Drobo in both positive and negative ways. On the positive side, the unit is a great way to store your back-up data in the first stage of a back-up workflow. On the negative side, the Drobo has stuck with slower computer connections like USB 2 and then added Firewire while eSATA has been ignored as a means of connection.
More info after the jump.
The new Drobo Pro does not fix the lack of eSATA connectivity but it does add an Gigabit Ethernet connection. According to the Drobo folks, you will need to connect to the computer using a Gigabit RJ-45 connection to gain the new speed available from the Drobo Pro.
The original Drobo product is a table-top, glossy black, curved edge, squarish box with a 4-slot chassis into which customers pack their own 3.5-inch SATA drives. It has a maximum capacity of 4TB with 1TB drives, and differently-sized drives can be mixed and matched. The Drobo box has blue capacity take-up lights, and green-yellow-blue traffic light-like LEDs to say when additional capacity or a new drive is needed.
The Drobo Pro is an oblong, desktop box, still with a glossy black casing, curved edges, blue lights to signal capacity take-up, and traffic-style lights to signal status. You can optionally buy it in a rack-mount format – with added "ears" to allow rack fitment.
Running on an ARM-type processor it uses RAID-like technology called BeyondRAID, and virtualises all the storage into a single protected pool, tracking where each block of data is stored on each disk. This technology allows drives to be of different capacities and avoids the lengthy rebuild times associated with traditional RAID schemes.
The firmware can cope with 4TB drives, offering a maximum of 64TB of capacity. The supported interconnects are FireWire 800, USB 2.0 and Gigabit Ethernet (iSCSI) with hosts using Microsoft's iSCSI initiator.
DROBO Pro
* Up to 8 disks of instant expansion
* Single or dual disk redundancy
* iSCSI (Gigabit Ethernet), FireWire 800 (400 compatible)
and Hi-Speed USB 2.0
* Up to 16 x 16TB Smart Volumes
* BeyondRAID technology

Open Pollination
Today, seeds are generally bred in one of three ways: 1) in an open pollinated environment, 2) through a hybrid cross, and 3) through genetic modification. Here at Southern Exposure Seeds Exchange, we specialize in open pollinated seeds.
Open pollinated seed saving is the oldest of the three methods, in all likelihood predating agriculture itself. All heirloom seeds are open pollinated. When a breeder raises a population of open pollinated plants that are of a like variety and keeps pollen from other varieties from entering the patch (generally accomplished with just distance from another variety), she or he will have the ability to save open pollinated seeds from the patch. If the best two thirds of the patch is used for the seed crop, the variety will generally hold it's quality through the generations. If only the best half or fewer plants are saved for seed, the variety will generally improve.
Hybridization, on the other hand, is when some technical method is applied to two open pollinated varieties growing side by side to ensure that every seed has received pollen from one breed (the father) and is grown on a distinctly different breed (the mother). This is done in many methods, the most commonly know being corn detasseling. In this method, three rows of the father breed are planted, and then one of the mother, and over and over. The mother rows are detasseled (had their pollen removed) ensuring that any pollen they receive came from the father rows. The mother's seeds can then be harvested as what is known as an F1 (first generation) hybrid. If the offspring of the F1 hybrid were all grown as an open pollinated variety and the seed saved, that would then be the F2 hybrid generation, and so on.
In order to understand why this is important to us at Southern Exposure Seed Exchange, it is important to understand what the genetic ramifications of these two methods are. There are many many genes occurring in pairs on the chromosomes of every living organism. Of all those organisms that were sexually reproduced (including both discussed methods above), one of every pair of genes is received from the mother and the other from the father.
These genes pairing off on their chromosomes have all the preset genetic material to make the organism what it is. If the genes were different, the organism would look and act differently. In a hybridized variety, the two parents would each have different genes.
Different genes opposite each other on a chromosome are often represented by different capitalization of a letter. For example, if I were growing an open pollinated tomato that had a characteristic that was consistent, I could say that the gene controlling that characteristic would be represented by the G gene. As all of the mother and father plants share this characteristic, all of the plants in the patch would then have a GG for the matching pair of genes. Now if I had another variety of open pollinated tomato that had a different gene in that spot, I could say that variety has a gg in the same spot on the chromosome.
Now when I hybridize the two varieties to get the F1 generation, I can say they will all have a Gg in this spot, as they got one gene from the GG mother and one gene from the gg Father.
Now say we were to look at the F2 generation. Well, there are four possibilities. Either the seeds will get a G from the father and a G from the mother, a G from the father and a g from the mother, a g from the father and a G from the mother, or a g from the father and a g from the mother. Therefore, half of the plants will be Gg, a quarter will be gg, and a quarter will be GG.
Now say that there were a thousand different genes that were different between the original mother and father. Multiply the thousand by the three possibilities and you see you have the possibility for 3000 distinct varieties to emerge in the F2 generation.
Therefore, if you grow out an open pollinated variety and save it for seed, you will get offspring that are similar to the parents. On the other hand, if you purchase an F1 hybrid seed and you save it for seed and attempt to grow it for seed, the F2 generation will be a very random mix and will not serve any consistent need, as all the plants will be wildly different.
So if you grow an open pollinated variety and you like it, you can save it and adapt it for your area and enjoy the full pleasure of taking the plants through their entire life cycles as they produce for you from generation to generation. If you grow an F1 hybrid seed and you like it, you must go back to the source you purchased it from if you wish to grow it out again.
We believe that for this reason, it is important to sell open pollinated seeds. Over 98% of our seeds are open pollinated, the hybrids being clearly marked online and in our catalog.
The third type of seed breeding is genetic modification. It involves, through laboratory means, taking a seed from one species and implanting it into another species where it would have never naturally occurred. At Southern Exposure Seed Exchange, we have a host of concerns with this breeding technique.

Amazon.com Review
Mark Thompson's Gay Body: A Journey Through Shadow to Self is a remarkable personal account of what it means to possess, or live in, a gay body in the world today. But this book is not about body building, AIDS, or even simple physical health. In Gay Body Thompson takes one of the most profound questions of Western philosophy--how do we unite our corporeality with our emotional and spiritual selves--and meditates on it from a uniquely gay male perspective. Using gay liberation philosophy, Jungian psychology, radical fairy thought, and his own experiences with drugs, S&M, and transgressive sexuality, Thompson has created a work that mixes autobiography with theory in an attempt to discover how gay men can find their fullest potential, their truest selves.
From Library Journal
Having already chronicled gay male spirituality, history, and mythopoeia (in e.g., Gay Soul, LJ 12/94), Thompson now explores the gay male psyche. He seamlessly weaves an unsparingly candid autobiographical narrative with broader observations, drawing on elements of Jungian stereotypes, gay history and mythology, and New Age spirituality. He advises that by confronting the psychic wounds that he calls the "Gay Shadow," gay men can reclaim themselves from the crushing familial and social forces they face. "Redemption does not lie outside ourselves, but in finding our truth and strength within....We queer men must father ourselves." Despite Thompson's forceful yet elegant prose, the density of the material often obscures his points. Still, this provocative work is a necessary purchase for academic and gay studies and human sexuality collections, as well as larger public libraries.?Richard Violette, Social Law Lib., Boston

This study investigated the prevalence of and motivations behind the exchange of sexually explicit text messages ("sexting")—including those with and without photographic images—among youth. Secondary aims included gauging youth awareness of potential legal and other negative consequences of sexting, and assessing the possible deterrent effect of anti-sexting legislation. Undergraduate students (N = 175) recruited from a large Northeastern university completed an anonymous online survey concerning their engagement in sexting as minors. Consistent with hypotheses, more than half of respondents reported sexting as minors, although only 28 % sent photographic sexts. Respondents demonstrated a general lack of awareness regarding legal consequences of underage sexting, with knowledge of legal consequences having a modest deterrent effect. Respondents who, as minors, were aware of legal consequences of youth sexting were significantly less likely than their peers to engage in underage sexting. Survey respondents were divided on the issue of whether minors should be prosecuted for sexting, and generally advocated for rehabilitative over punitive sanctions. Policy implications and future directions are discussed.

text: Hi, I've just done the "ring benchmark" from the end of Chapter 8 in the Joe Armstrong book (Programming Erlang: Software for a Concurrent World). I think I have a module that does what is asked in the problem "(Write a ring benchmark. Create N processes in a ring. Send a message round the ring M times so that a total of N * M messages get sent. Time how long this takes for different values of N and M.)" I am certain it is nowhere near the best or most elegant way to do it as I am not very accomplished (but I do like to have a go anyway). What I am wondering is why, when I run the "benchmark" only one of the cores on my laptop's dual core seems to get used. Have I written it wrong (so that there is no concurrency) or is a ring by its nature a sequential thing? I have attached the code in case it helps answer the above question. As I say I am a total newb. My reason for posting is just to verify that the implementation works and to find out why it only uses one core. Also, is there a canonical implementation that beginners like me can have a look at? Many thanks in advance Russell -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Crash causes one-hour lane closures on I-5 north
SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO – A crash between a car and food truck Thursday has caused a one-hour closures for two lanes on the northbound I-5.
A white sedan and 25-foot food truck crashed and initially blocked two lanes on the 5 north near the Junipero Sierra Road off-ramp, California Highway Patrol logs show.
Officials said that injuries were reported and two lanes are blocked for an hour, so drivers should expect delays.
It is unknown how the crash was caused or how many people are injured, a CHP dispatcher said.
