Winner of 2013 Norman Borlaug Award announced
A young Kenyan scientist who made major breakthroughs in combating the deadly aflatoxin mold contamination that occurs in stored grain, which has been a serious problem in Africa and around the world for decades, was today named the 2013 recipient of the prestigious "Norman Borlaug Award for Field Research and Application, Endowed by the Rockefeller Foundation."
Charity Kawira Mutegi, Ph.D., 38, who currently serves as the Kenya Country Coordinator for the Aflasafe Project for the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA), on assignment from the Kenya Agricultural Research Institute (KARI), was named winner of the award. At the request of the World Food Prize Foundation, Mamadou Biteye, the Rockefeller Foundation's Managing Director for Africa, made the announcement during the renowned African Green Revolution Forum in Maputo, Mozambique.
Aflatoxin, a naturally occurring mold, is a major concern for farmers and consumers worldwide; it is toxic to people who consume it either directly through contaminated grain, or through milk or meat if livestock have been fed contaminated grain. It is one of the most carcinogenic substances known.
Mutegi spearheaded efforts to identify the cause of, and solution to, a deadly outbreak of aflatoxicosis in 2004-05, fatal to 125 people in eastern Kenya who consumed contaminated grain. Her diligent research led to innovative solutions to avert future outbreaks and safeguard the region's staple crop of maize. Mutegi is leading efforts for the development of a biocontrol product in Kenya that can be used to significantly reduce aflatoxin levels in maize. This works by introducing naturally occurring non-toxic strains of the fungus, which have a competitive advantage over the strains that produce the deadly aflatoxin, a technology that was developed by the US Department of Agriculture – Agriculture Research Service (USDA-ARS), and locally adapted for use in several African countries by IITA and partners. The non-toxic strains outcompete the toxic strains, thus reducing aflatoxin contamination in the maize crop. The microbial bio pesticide she and her team are developing – "aflasafe KE01" – is affordable for farmers, is natural and environmentally safe, and once applied to a field, the effects last multiple growing seasons, making it extremely effective.
"Mutegi is an inspiration to other young scientists around the world. She tackled a critical problem, and has effectively transferred her own scientific knowledge to farmers and policymakers to help improve food safety for the entire region," said Amb. Kenneth M. Quinn, President of The World Food Prize. "Like Dr. Borlaug, she has put the needs of people first, and has shown persistence, innovation, effective communication, contribution to science, and application of that science to improve lives and livelihoods."

Summary of Research Intrests:
My research activity focuses on the terrestrial record of several regions of significant environmental and tectonic change. This includes both mid-Mesozoic as well as Neogene-aged sedimentary assemblages. This research has been primarily been on areas of the East African rift system, mainly in northern Kenya, as well as in the evolving Himalayan foreland basin of north India and Pakistan. New initiatives related to a variety of sedimentary geologic problems in New England and in the northern Rockies of Wyoming, as well as research into the paleontologic record of ratite bird (e.g. Struthio sp. – ostrich, and Aepyornis sp. – "elephant bird"?) evolution and distribution in Europe and Asia is the focus of current research.
The sedimentary record of cratonic basins often provides a window into the pre-orogenic and orogenic history of adjacent mountain belts. The facies character of this sedimentary fill can usually be linked to various autocyclic and allocyclic controls, but difficulties in sorting out the chronometric detail oftentimes makes for uncertain temporal relationships. Work presently being conducted on certain Mesozoic sediments of the Cordilleran foreland basin of Wyoming and Montana, and in Late Neogene sedimentary record of the Himalayan foreland basin in India and Pakistan, is focused on understanding the detail of foreland basin evolution and the sedimentological character of syn-orogenic deposition in areas where high quality chronometric control can be erected. In this research, most of the sedimentary successions are terrestrial in character, and while having a reasonably well defined vertebrate biochronology, oftentimes these successions do not permit precise temporal relationships to be defined amongst various localities and related successions. Much of this work then, is coordinated with series of collateral studies on the chronostratigraphy of these same deposits, through separate studies of their magnetic polarity stratigraphy, and in some cases their tephrochronology.
One of these current initiatives, the peritidal record of a number of marginal marine sedimentary sequences and their tidal record, is currently underway, and involves an assessment of the character of the tidal signature preserved in Champlain Sea (early Holocene) sediments of Quebec, Ontario, and northernmost New England.
Additionally, my work has increasingly focused on public service geological research and consulting, where I am closely involved with the U.S. Bureau of Land Mangement (Department of Interior) in developing educational and research protocols associated with paleontologically important public land resources in Wyoming and elsewhere. This work has also extended to assisting several natural history museums in Wyoming in outreach development.
Current contractual arrangements with the Wyoming State Geological Survey exist to develop and produce quadrangle-scale geological maps of portions of that state. To date, one map has been completed, and several additional maps, at varying scales (1:24,000; 1:100,000) are in review or in preparation.

"Whiskey's fer Drinkin' and Water's fer Fightin' Over" —Mark Twain
Mark Twain hit it on the head. In the arid climate of the western United States, access to water is everything. Water brings the ability to grow food, wash clothing, hydrate the body, and to grow industries and communities. Water equals life. No water? No life. No wonder water is such a prize. Two hundred some-odd miles north of Los Angeles, Owens Valley lies in the shadow of the towering Sierra Nevada. Snow-fed streams rush down the slopes to converge in the Owens River. Flashback a century and Owens Valley was home to an abundant agricultural region thanks to the Owens River. Life was good here, as the population was low and resources were high. Then the long arm of Los Angeles reached out.
Los Angeles's situation was the polar opposite of Owens Valley: a growing population juxtaposed with meager water sources. Los Angeles has some native water in the San Gabriel River, the Los Angeles River, Malibu Creek, and the Santa Ana River. In addition to the surface water, wells drilled in the Los Angeles area help supplement water needs. Although the list of water sources is long, the volume produced is generally low, inconsistent, and certainly inadequate for the needs of a major population center.
Los Angeles needed more water than it had access to. To fix this situation, Department of Water and Power Superintendent William Mulholland hatched a plan. Mulholland and a few cronies went to Owens Valley and quietly bought agricultural land that included water rights. Ownership of these purchases was subsequently transferred to the City of Los Angeles. By the time the Owens Valley residents woke up to the big picture, Los Angeles owned virtually all the rights to Owens River water.
An aqueduct was built, transferring the Owens River flow from its natural bed into the aqueduct. Even as the population and economy of Owens Valley died on the vine, Los Angeles found itself possessing the key element it needed to survive. On November 5, 1913, Mulholland supervised the release of the first Owens River into an LA-area reservoir. His words at the ceremony? "There it is. Take it." From that time forward neither Owens Valley nor Los Angeles would ever be the same.

The Gators join Alabama slate, along with permanent East opponent Tennessee, which hasn't beaten the Tide since Nick Saban touched down in Tuscaloosa.
LSU still has to play Florida, but the Bengal Tigers draw Kentucky from the East, too.
Next year, it will be Florida that complains about scheduling, and considering the Gators have to play both Alabama and LSU, that's a legitimate beef.
Still, the recent issues with the Crimson Tide have little to do with its rotating opponent from the East. Instead, it's this: Tennessee rolled downhill and crashed and burned at the bottom.
If the Vols were still the program that they were for much of Phillip Fulmer era, nobody would be complaining about Alabama's "easy" schedule.

A teenager is among the four victims who died over the weekend in an apartment fire in Emmaus, Pennsylvania, the Lehigh County Coroner's Office announced Tuesday.
According to the coroner's office, Montana Twining, 16, Lena Marie Adamo, 56, David Jenkins, Jr, 65, and Melissa A. Twining, 48, died in Sunday's fire on South 5th Street.
The coroner's office says all four victims were pronounced dead at the scene. Autopsies performed on each victim revealed smoke inhalation to be the cause of death.
The fire sparked shortly before noon Sunday. Witnesses told FOX 29 on Sunday the building housed at least five apartment units and was once a funeral home before it was converted into a residential living space.

On May 5, 2012, the different social media sites burned because of the extensive discussion regarding the latest page rank update conducted by Google, of course a lot of website owners were very happy because of the fact that their page ranking increased and some even jumped two page ranks up. Some were felt the opposite because of the simple fact that their rankings went down. This roller coaster emotions by SEO companies and SEO consultants is because of the changes in the page ranking of their target website.
What is Page Rank?
In order to understand why many SEO companies and SEO consultants are worrying about their websites page ranking we have to understand what page ranking is. Page Rank basically is patented by Google, it is a ranking set in order to indicate the authority of the website. The ranking will start from a low zero to a high of page rank 10. The increase in page rank can be attributed with the link building SEO strategy where link page rank is passed on if it originated from a website with a high page rank. This is because of the fact that links from one website to another is considered as a "vote" to the recipient website which means that the more websites with high page rank linking the higher the page rank of the recipient website.
Page Rank and Panda or Penguin
Many would wonder if Penguin and Panda interplays with the Page rank. One of Panda and Penguins main focus is to track poor and spinned content making it reduce the ranking of the website in SERP. The main question therefore is does content now play a role in determining the page rank?
The Answer
Content nowadays play a significant role in determining the page rank of the website, this is because Google utilises the flesch-kincaid method where it tracks word spelling and sentence grammar and checks whether they are correct. Of course content is only one of the determining factors as links are still key players in determining the page rank of a website.
This just proves what we have always been saying on this blog time and again. In order for you to gain ranking either in the search engine results page or in the page ranking you have to incorporate quality not only in your link building efforts but most of all in your content development.

Hot tacking
Hot tacking
Has any one got any advice on hot tacking of ripstop to hold pieces together before sewing? I have been trying using a 30W soldering iron with a fine tip and controlling the temperature with a dimmer switch. If the temperature is too high it makes a large hole in both pieces of material and too cool it doesn't melt the lower layer. At no setting do the pieces stay stuck together. I have tried working on glass, plastic, paper and wood but still they don't weld.
Any suggestions please?
Re: Hot tacking
Arthur , sounds like you covered all the variables including practice. My first thought is to expirement with tip shape.
The objective is to bond layers and at the same time keeping the "hole" tiny. The process is melting the layers causing the melted material to mingle with each other. Tips are shaped like a wedge making the top layer hole large and the under layer (s) smaller. I found custom shaping the tip by having more of a blunt point more effective. Not too blunt that it creates a big hole. The blunt tip will "push" some of the melted material forward to lower layers improving the bond. Thanks for mentioning all the things you have tried ,that helps people think about all the different methods to try.
Re: Hot tacking
Here's a video of Jose Sainz (a younger Jose :-) )building a kite and includes hot tacking.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3Y0WsH4 … 6A_indLPQQ
Use a sharp point (grind down) and with a spring added to help aim the tacker.

Re: Hot tacking
Nice to see what Jose looked like when he was 21 :>))
Wish he had the tacker working. I love the way he handles the scissors .
Re: Hot tacking
Thanks for the replies. Cliff, what surface do you work on, glass, wood, Formica? The film with Jose is obviously staged so you can't tell what he uses. Are you using a standard soldering iron with out temperature control? In the film he uses a wood burner, any idea if this is hotter than a soldering iron?
I will keep experimenting.
Re: Hot tacking
Hi Arthur, my work surface is a glass table (from a glass sliding door) I do all my hot cutting on it, including hot tacking. Wood burners or soldering irons ,to me are the same . I have 4 or 5 irons each has a different shape tip for different jobs. They are anywhere from 25 to 40 watts. I don't use my light dimmer device to vari their heat. One of my cutters is a Weller 250 watt gun with a flattened tip (like a blunt knife) I use the Dimmer to cut down the heat but primarilly to make the gun run cooler . Get's kinda hot when used for lots of long cuts . I also have a sail cutter which I use most frequently. Each of these tools have a certain purpose. Getting back to hot cutting ... I found that the tip shape is extreemly important ,more so than wattage. You need a minimum amount of heat but once you get to the melting temperature of the fabric time becomes a factor. You've got to get in there, fuse and get out. I work on a "hard surface" which stops the tip from sinking too deep. Paper or wood will allow deeper penitration but will give you a larger hole, so tip shape becomes important. Some people have a light gague coil spring around the tip to steady the tip for better control , it anchors the position and presses on the fabric , that's good for me and my shakey old hands. :>) I've seen many kites factory made coming out of Asia with hot tack seams. Very fast and cheap way for volume production. I know your talking about tacking but probably more folks use adheasives for positioning fabric pieces but that's all about what your comfortable with. Volumes can be written about adheasive methods for positioning. And tacking for that matter.
I hope more people respond to your inquiry so we get lots of ideas shared.
Re: Hot tacking
Thanks Cliff, that gives me a starting point.
Re: Hot tacking
I have always had a hard time with hot tacking. If I keep the touch light enough not to melt a big (to me anyway) hole then it isn't enough to keep the fabric together. And if I melt it enough to keep it together, I end up with what I see as an unsightly hole. So I use adhesives for ripstop. Spray adhesive works well but leaves a residue to clean up. Double sided tape - either in the seam our most often outside it where it is peeled off and thrown away after sewing. Not so much luck with rubber cement. Next up for trying is wallpaper paste - it has been suggested as very easy to use and clean up.
For working with banner cloth (200d) adhesives and tapes just won't stick well enough so I was forced to retry hot tacking. Linda Sanders (OzFeathers) suggested a sharper tip and a higher heat -- which I adopted with a lot more success. Definitely a glass surface.

Re: Hot tacking
Thanks TBHinPhilly. I have no problem with Linda's banner material. I had to get that right as she is doing a workshop with us later this year so I thought I would try on ripstop and I am having trouble getting any sort of bond that doesn't split as you transfer it to the machine.
Cliff has pointed me to KiteBuilder but there is so much on there it is taking a long time to troll through.
When I get a result I will post it.

I have been using these for years on all sorts of bikes and love them. The work well and are relatively cheap. Just be sure to put some thick heat shrink tubing on the clutch side of the bar before putting the heating element on to insulate the bars. If you don't, the left side won't get warm as all the heat will go into the metal bars as opposed to going through the rubber grip and getting to your hand.Read All Reviews

IBM Grants $30,000 to American Indian College Fund to Continue Scholarship Program
December 14, 2011
IBM awarded $30,000 to the American Indian College Fund for scholarships for tribal college students. The grant will support ten annual scholarships for students attending tribal colleges who are studying science, technology, engineering, mathematics, or business.
David H. Daniel, GM, GTS Service Delivery (Japan/Asia Pacific), of IBM said, "IBM is a proud supporter of many Native American initiatives, including the American Indian College Fund. We feel that providing scholarships for Native students to attend the tribal colleges and universities is critical to improving the educational fabric for Native American students. By helping students achieve their educational and career aspirations, we are also investing in our Native American Communities at-large. IBM is committed to the Native American Community and we will continue our focus to help bring technology to Indian Country."
"IBM's longtime support of the American Indian College Fund allows Native students to attend college who might not otherwise be able to afford an education," said Richard B. Williams, President and CEO of the American Indian College Fund. "On behalf of our students, we are grateful for their support that will allow American Indians to succeed in the STEM fields while helping to make America more competitive in the global market."

What is biological motion?
Do you know what "biological motion" is? I am considered an expert on biological motion perception but I am not entirely sure myself where to use the term and where not to use it. No question, biological motion is a super interesting thing. But also a very diverse one. People have used the term for a whole bag of goodies, often without even realizing that the same label may not always refer to the same thing. Its meaning seems to have evolved over time, too. In a chapter that just came out in a wonderful new book, I attempt to provide an overview about the broader phenomenology that falls under the term "biological motion". A link to an early version of my chapter is here. But you may rather want to get hold of a copy of the book itself. It is entitled "Social Perception" and edited by M. D. Rutherford and V. A. Kuhlmeier. The book provides a comprehensive overview not just about the perception of biological motion (whatever that is), but also about other aspects of social visual perception. A very interesting read that contains contributions from a considerable number of acclaimed experts in the field.
Annual meeting of the Vision Science Society
It is VSS time again! This year I came here with two graduate students and two posters. Seamas Weech and Sophie Kenny both present studies relating to some recent discussions of the "facing-the-viewer bias" that we observe in biological motion perception: Even though standard point-light displays and related depictions of the human body in action do not contain any cues to the order of the elements in depth, observers seem to prefer one of the two theoretically possible percepts: The walker seems to be facing the observer rather than facing away. While this observation has been demonstrated multiple times, it is not clear why it occurs. The poster by Weech and Troje offers an explanation. Troje, Kenny and Weech explore whether linear perspective can really disambiguate depth in these displays. I am posting both posters here for you to explore.
Weech, S., Troje, N. F. (2013) Does a convexity prior explain the facing-the-viewer bias in the perception of biological motion?
Troje, N. F., Kenny, S. Weech, S. (2013) Can we perceive linear perspective in biological motion point-light dispays?

What pigeons think about "direction"
If someone would present you with the display of a person stepping backwards on a treadmill and you were asked "Which way is the person going" you might ask for more specific instructions: "The person is facing in one direction, she is moving as if walking into the other direction, but overall she remains stationary. So what do you mean with 'direction'?" How would a pigeon respond? Human are able to retrieve information from biological motion through at least two different channels: The global articulated structure as revealed by the non-rigid, yet highly constrained deformation of the dot pattern, and the characteristics of local motion trajectories of individual dots. In the example above, the articulated structure indicates the facing direction, and the local motion indicates the intended walking direction of the backwards walking walker. In a new study that has just come out in the journal Vision Research, we tested eight pigeons on a task in which they had to discriminate stationary left-facing from right-facing biological motion point-light figure. We then challenged them with a number of test trials introduced into the sequence of the normal training trials. Tested on backwards moving walkers, the majority of the birds indicated that they used local motion cues to solve the training task, while the remaining birds obviously used global, configural cues. Testing the pigeons on different versions of scrambled biological motion confirmed that each individual bird had made a clear decision for one of the two potentially available strategies. While we confirm a previously described local precedence in processing visual patterns, the fact that some birds used global features suggests that even the birds who relied on local cues probably dispose of the perceptual abilities to use global structure, but "chose" to not use them.

Holiday walker
Creative coder Nicolas Barradeau just sent me the link to this Christmas calender. The walker might look familiar to you. Click on the image to start the animation. I often get requests from people interested in the BMLwalker who use it for all sorts of interesting purposes. One of the most impressive installations is the one on the outside of the Otto-Bock Science Museum in Berlin, were a light installation of the BMLwalker covers two of the four walls of a four story building. I have never tried it, but I assume you can see at night time from the observation dome of the Reichstag.
Sophie Kenny
Time flies by, and with the change of seasons came new lab members. Among them is Sophie Kenny, who joined the Biomotion Laboratory in September. Having previously completed her Master's degree at Memorial University of Newfoundland on the enactment effect (see, e.g., Engelkamp, 1998) with Dr. Ian Neath, she is now expanding the scope of her research on memory for abstract human movement sequences. As a Ph.D. student in our Brain, Behaviour and Cognitive Science graduate program Sophie will attempt to extend general principles of memory that were well defined in verbal memory by her former supervisors to nonverbal memory. Among her objectives is to demonstrate that memory operates according to the same rules over a broader range of information types than was previously thought to be true. She is funded through NSERC, and after having received a Julie-Payette Research Scholarship for her Master's, she has received a CGS-D3 for her Ph.D. With the expertise and the technology currently available at the Biomotion Lab she will be able to create highly controlled point-light motion stimuli and build algorithms which can accurately represent the match between the presentation of a stimulus and the performance of a participant. Doing so, she will be able to accurately reflect the quality of movement memory representation in a quantitative manner. She is looking forward to spending the next few years here with us, in Kingston.

Not authentic Japanese food – This is a Korean run restaurant so it really misses on the authenticity. I found the food to be medeocre... i think they cooked the tempura at the wrong temperature because it was a very heavy batter with a hard crunch (it should be light), and the "sushi chef" clearly did not have the requisite 7 years apprenticeship because the vinegar in the rice was off. Perhaps I'm being a bit critical, but I grew up with authentic Japanese food and you can taste the difference. Tokyo Subway is just around the corner on Santa Cruz. and offers great tasting food. The restaurant has been there for years so you know they're doing something right.
Personally, I believe the best restaurants are owned/run by people to truly understand the cuisine. I wouldn't want to eat Korean food made by Japanese since that's not their skill-set.
Fresh Sashimi and Sushi – One of my favorite Japanese restaraunts in the Bay Area. Have dinner here and walk the 20 feet to The Guild for a good independent movie, or across the street to the legendary Kepler's book store.

The ASGE Ambassador program is a philanthropic initiative designed to export two of the Society's greatest assets — endoscopic medical care and training expertise — to areas around the world in need of such care. Direct access to GI care does not exist in all developing countries; therefore, educating and training physicians in underserved areas provides an opportunity for ASGE Ambassadors to make a significant impact at the global level. ASGE Ambassadors donate their time in order to share knowledge and expertise on the practice of gastrointestinal endoscopy and managing basic and advanced GI disorders. For more information, review the Ambassador Program Fact Sheet.
Institutions and clinics throughout the world contact ASGE to inquire how to bring the Ambassador Program to their country. For a description of the requirements for proposing a future site destination and the related application, carefully review and complete the Ambassador Program Request-for-Proposal (RFP). If you live in, or are aware of, an area outside of the U.S. that may be in need, please submit a proposal for site consideration.
Questions? Contact Holly Becker, Assistant Director, International Programs via email at email@example.com.
Solomon IslandsA follow-up to the "hybrid" Ambassador Program in the Solomon Islands was held in conjunction with the Solomon Island Living Memorial Project at the National Referral Hospital (NRH) in January 2013. The training followed up to the previous programs, held in December 2011 and July 2012 and provided basic instruction in upper endoscopy, lower endoscopy and care and management of endoscopic equipment. Prior to these programs, the 4 surgeons at the NRH had no formal training and their current equipment was outdated and in poor condition. In the past year, the local endoscopy unit has performed approximately 200 endoscopies, 90% of which have been upper endoscopy and 10% colonoscopy. The physicians and nurses in the Solomon Islands are extremely motivated and work in relatively poor conditions with limited resources.
Manaus, Brazil
In December 2012, four ASGE Ambassadors traveled to Manaus, Brazil for a week-long training which was carried out in collaboration with the Brazilian Society of Digestive Endoscopy. Various SOBED representatives also traveled to Manaus to assist in the training. The program provided endoscopic training in band ligation, sclerotherapy, PEG, EMR, dilatations, foreign bodies, clips, endoloops and argon plasma coagulation through didactic lectures, hands-on workshops and endoscopic procedures. A total of twenty-nine physicians participated in the program. There were many patients who otherwise would not have received treatment and some patients traveled 2-3 days by boat to receive care. More than 100 patients were treated over three days.
Taipei, TaiwanIn February 2012, four ASGE Ambassadors traveled to Taipei, Taiwan, to train thirty-nine physicians from Taiwan (and other southeastern Asian countries) in a week-long program that was carried out in collaboration with the Digestive Endoscopy Society of Taiwan (DEST) and two local ASGE Ambassadors. The program provided endoscopic training for treating pancreaticobiliary cancers and diagnostic and therapeutic ERCP. As a result, DEST will be working to establish a formal ERCP training and credentialing program in Taiwan.
Cuenca, EcuadorIn November 2011, thirty physicians participated in hands-on training sessions conducted by ASGE Ambassadors. During the program, approximately 55 patients were treated with various diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopy procedures. The program focused on upper GI tract malignancies and GI bleeding (variceal and non-variceal).
Solomon IslandsHeld in conjunction with the Solomon Island Living Memorial Project in December 2011, twenty physicians participated in a hybrid Ambassador Program consisting of hands-on training sessions on upper and lower endoscopy and proper management of equipment. Approximately twenty patients were treated during the program and the hands-on training had a significant impact on physicians' understanding of patient care. To read first-hand reports from two ASGE Ambassadors, click here.
Hue City and Nha Trang, VietnamIn November 2010, ASGE Ambassadors trained physicians from the north, central and south region during two separate educational conferences.
Cairo, EgyptDeveloped in conjunction with the World Gastroenterology Organisation (WGO) in February 2010, this was the pilot for the ASGE Ambassador Program. ASGE would like to convey sincere appreciation to WGO for demonstrating ongoing support of outstanding education and healthcare.

Narrator: This is Science Today. A hormone well known for inducing labor may also influence human attachment and bonding. Rebecca Turner, a professor of psychiatry at the University of California, San Francisco says previous studies have shown a bonding behavior in animals. So the question is, can oxytocin influence human emotion and behavior?
Turner: The reason we ask that question is because there are oxytocinergic neurons throughout the brain and the limbic system, which is responsible for emotion and in autonomic centers that control emotion.
In a carefully monitored study of twenty-six women,
researchers did find oxytocin levels were associated
with the ability to maintain healthy interpersonal
Turner: I think one of the applications of this work is in the area of psychopathology. If this hormone is involved in the ability to seek pleasure from relationships, then maybe it's something that can be used in treatment.
Narrator: For Science Today, I'm Larissa Branin.

Hyphema refers to blood in the anterior chamber of the eye. The anterior chamber is the front section of the eye's interior where fluid flows in and out, providing nourishment to the eye and surrounding tissues. A hyphema is usually caused by a trauma to the eye but can also occur spontaneously in children with other medical problems. Blood is seen in the eyeball. This is a medical emergency and immediate medical care is necessary.
Symptoms of hyphema include blood visible in the eye, usually following some type of trauma to the eye.
The symptoms of hyphema may resemble other eye conditions or medical problems. Always consult your child's physician for a diagnosis.
Diagnosis is usually made after a complete medical history and physical examination of your child's eye.
Specific treatment for a hyphema will be determined by your child's physician based on:
Most children with a hyphema will be treated in an emergency room. An ophthalmologist (physician who specializes in comprehensive eye care) may be involved in the care of the child. Treatment may include:
The following are some of the complications that may occur from a hyphema:

Sounds work but no effect

Trainers in Dark Souls
I hope we are able to keep using trainers. I myself only use the trainer for souls and humanity just to make PVP builds faster. Ive put 100's of hours into Dark Souls and deserve some free souls dammit. lol! I dont cheat with the trainer, but honestly when I encounter cheaters online I consider it a challenge, because no ones invincible in Dark Souls, it doesnt matter if you have infinite health, no ones safe from a fall off a cliff after I just knocked your cheating ass over the cliff. lol! But seriously people need to lighten up when it comes to cheaters, just think of it as a really cheap boss fight. lol!
