Dear OncoLink "Ask the Experts,"
Do you have any statistics as to how many companion animals are diagnosed with cancer in their life time? What treatments are used? And, what is average cost of treatment?
Thank you.
Lili Duda, VMD, Editor of the OncoLink Veterinary Oncology Section Menu, responds:
Approximately 25% of companion animals will develop cancer in their lifetime, usually as older pets. This is because they are living longer due to control of things like infectious disease and improvements in nutrition.
All modalities are used in veterinary medicine: surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy.
There is no "average cost" of treatment; it varies widely depending on tumor type, extent of tumor, aggressive of treatment, and owner and veterinary constraints, etc. Costs can range into the thousands quite easily with multi-modality therapy.
Oct 20, 2011 - U.S. veterans are more likely than the general population to have a nicotine dependency, especially if they've struggled with other substances, mental illness, or homelessness, but VA services may be underestimating the scope of the problem, according to research published in the November issue of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Preventing Chronic Disease.

I'm curious about the history of this pattern. My aunts have them and one of my aunts is over 70. One time we came across another family who had the same stockings in their family. Has anyone else out there seen this pattern before?
And here is today's view. Couldn't see any mountains today.
We got a good dusting of fresh snow just in time for Christmas.
Tomorrow is the first day of vacation.
I dream of sewing in my pajamas with a cup of hot chocolate next to me.
I'm sure reality will be drastically different trying to keep a bunch of hyper-anxious kids entertained
during the most impatient-kid-drama-too-much-sugar week of the year.
Hopefully some cozy time on the couch, wrapped up in quilts,
watching Christmas movies will help us all.
I hope everyone else's final Christmas preparations are going well.
Any favorite pieces of Christmas nostalgia you have a spare second to share?

Hydrocephalus is a buildup of fluid inside the skull that leads to brain swelling.
Hydrocephalus means "water on the brain."
Water on the brain
Hydrocephalus is due to a problem with the flow of the fluid that surrounds the brain. This fluid is called the cerebrospinal fluid, or CSF. The fluid surrounds the brain and spinal cord, and helps cushion the brain.
CSF normally moves through the brain and the spinal cord, and is soaked into the bloodstream. CSF levels in the brain can rise if:
Too much CSF puts pressure on the brain. This pushes the brain up against the skull and damages brain tissue.
Hydrocephalus may begin while the baby is growing in the womb. It is common in babies who have a myelomeningocele , a birth defect in which the spinal column does not close properly.
Hydrocephalus may also be due to:
In young children, hydrocephalus may be due to:
Hydrocephalus most often occurs in children. Another type, called normal pressure hydrocephalus , may occur in adults and the elderly.
Symptoms of hydrocephalus depend on:
In infants, hydrocephalus causes the fontanelle (soft spot) to bulge and the head to be larger than expected. Early symptoms may also include:
Symptoms that may occur in older children can include:
The doctor or nurse will examine the baby. This may show:
Repeated head circumference measurements over time may show that the head is getting bigger.
A head CT scan is one of the best tests for identifying hydrocephalus. Other tests that may be done include:
The goal of treatment is to reduce or prevent brain damage by improving the flow of CSF.
Surgery may be done to remove a blockage, if possible.
If not, a flexible tube called a shunt may be placed in the brain to reroute the flow of CSF. The shunt sends CSF to another part of the body, such as the belly area, where it can be absorbed.
Other treatments may include:
The child will need regular check-ups to make sure there are no further problems. Tests will be done regularly to check the child's development, and to look for intellectual, neurological, or physical problems.
Visiting nurses, social services, support groups, and local agencies can provide emotional support and help with the care of a child with hydrocephalus who has serious brain damage.
Without treatment, up to 6 in 10 people with hydrocephalus will die. Those who survive will have different amounts of intellectual, physical, and neurological disabilities.
The outlook depends on the cause. Hydrocephalus that is not due to an infection has the best outlook. Persons with hydrocephalus caused by tumors will often do very poorly.
Most children with hydrocephalus who survive for 1 year will have a fairly normal lifespan.
The shunt may become blocked. Symptoms of such a blockage include headache and vomiting. Surgeons may be able to help the shunt open without having to replace it.
There may be other problems with the shunt, such as kinking, tube separation, or infection in the area of the shunt.
Other complications may include:
Seek immediate medical care if your child has any symptoms of this disorder. Go to the emergency room or call 911 if emergency symptoms occur, such as:
You should also call your health care provider if:
Protect the head of an infant or child from injury. Prompt treatment of infections and other disorders associated with hydrocephalus may reduce the risk of developing the disorder.

What Flood? 2 weeks of disaster relief in Austin, Texas (#ATXFloods)
7:30 pm in Uncategorized by Kit OConnell
In the early hours of Halloween 2013, Austin, Texas suffered from a record-breaking flood. Some 1,100 homes were affected by the floods with hundreds of those seriously. Flood response was dangerously delayed by a faulty flood gauge and improper human monitoring of the rapidly rising Onion Creek. Because of the city's seemingly laissez-faire attitude toward the residents of the floodplain, many remained asleep as water began to pour into their homes:
Onion Creek was transformed into a raging river last Thursday. The Halloween flood set a new record for high water levels in the creek. More than 1,000 homes were damaged and five people died.
At a town hall meeting in the Dove Springs area Tuesday night homeowners had a lot of questions, and one comment caused concern.
'We relied too much, me, on technology and gauges that were not working properly,' said Police Chief Art Acevedo.
Flood survivor Norma Jeanne Maloney took to Facebook to tell how she and her partner Dawna Fisher were awakened by rising waters:
Dawna Fisher woke me up to tell me we had a problem. Half asleep I said 'Say again, what kind of problem?' 'We have some water outside and it looks pretty high.' I went to our front window to see a raging body of water about 3 feet high. I said 'We need to wake up the kids we are in serious trouble.' I woke up Ruby and she woke up Texie. I went back into our bedroom where the water had already begun to seep up into our floors, I heard my cat Pickup howling, yes cats howl, under the bed. I managed to grab him and while he clawed me to pieces ( and he has never ever hurt anyone ) I said to him, go right ahead pal, I'm not letting you go. Texie and I shoved him in a bag and zipped it up. …
We all had gathered in the living room wondering if anyone on earth knew what was happening and how we were going to get out. We saw someone trying to escape in their car, it flipped on its side and was washed away. I heard voices and saw a boat in the street and my immediate response was to open the front door to swim to the boat to get help for my family. Do not try this at home, it lets more water in. We began flicking our porch light on and off and were seen. A beautiful tall firefighter walked through the raging water and made it to our window and asked how many lives we had in our home including pets …
He said he would be back. We waited and watched the water continue to rise, our belongings beginning to float about the house. My daughter Ruby asked me if we were going to die. That was the hardest part. Of course not I said, wondering if I just lied to my child and if we were all going to perish. I said guys, I know this isn't really your thing, but can we pray? Without hesitation we all grabbed hands in a circle and asked that we be spared, at this point the water was past our waists. … The firefighter came back, we heard our neighbors screaming and we said go back for them, they are elderly and need your help. Our neighbors (we know now) were screaming go get them, they have babies! On his last trip to our window they finally managed to get the boat near our living room window against the current and said they were ready to load us. These brave men loaded our family and our animals in the tiny craft and we were transported less than a half mile north up our street where it was completely dry.
As is so often the case in these disasters, city organizations and big nonprofits poured into the neighborhood to offer assistance and ask for cash donations in the immediate aftermath, but it didn't last. The Red Cross turned up to serve thousands of hot dogs before halting meals a week after the floods. A city-operated shelter opened for a mere 2 weeks. And while the Austin city government offered buyouts to over a hundred of the worst damaged homes, residents are expected to wait months to receive that money:

7-KETO (3-acetyl-7-oxo-dehydroepiandrosterone) is a (non-hormonal) naturally occurring metabolite of the hormone dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA). DHEA is the most abundant of the adrenal hormones and serves as a precursor for sex hormones, such as estrogen and testosterone. 7-KETO is non-androgenic or estrogenic.
In a weight-loss category devoted largely to products powered by stimulant-based thermogenic compounds, 7-Keto® offers a vital and synergistic non-stimulant alternative. Recent scientific research into this increasingly popular compound has associated it with a capacity to support weight loss by enhancing the action of key thermogenic enzymes, as well as facilitating increased energy production at the cellular level, all without utilizing or causing a stimulant effect.
Prosource's 7-KETO® is the genuine Humanetics, a patented version of the non-hormonal, non-stimulating 7-KETO® in potent 100 mg per capsule size. As with all other ProSource supplements, this compound is of the highest level of quality and purity available.7-Keto® is a registered trademark of Humanetics Corporation, Eden Prairie, MN

I am also a huge proponent of Agile Partner/Peavey's AmpKit, which this works perfectly with. However, if you plug it in while using AmpKit, you'll have to close and open the app. No big deal, though. Also, compared to the Amplitube iRig I used to have, the sound quality difference is phenomenally better.

GP3 might only have two full seasons to its name, but so far no one else has got a look in. Lotus GP – formerly ART – have two drivers' and two team titles to its name. The mission for 2012 is to continue their winning streak.
A stepping stone between Formula 3 / Formula Renault and its big brother, GP2, GP3 pits young drivers – usually teenagers – against each other in stock 280bhp Renault-powered single seaters. Speeds reach 265km/h, and there's lots of grip thanks to high levels of aerodynamic downforce and sticky Pirelli tyres. That doesn't stop them sliding into each other with alarming regularity. GP3 is one of the most entertaining series there is.
Daniel Abt, from Germany, is the 2009 ADAC Formel Masters champion - dominating with eight wins – impressed at Macau in 2010, and finished seventh in the Formula 3 Euroseries last year. He opens his GP3 account in 2012.
Aaro Vainio – who has already won this season's competition for the most vowels – is another Flying Finn. Goodness knows that they're putting in the water up there. He finished second in 2010's Formula Renault 2.0 season and made his GP3 debut last year with Tech 1, earning a feature race podium in Barcelona.
American driver Conor Daly will race for Lotus GP in the 2012 GP3 Series, completing a strong three-car line-up. He will share the garage with Germany's Daniel Abt and Finland's Aaro Vainio.
Conor is the son of Irish former F1 and Champ Car driver Derek Daly. Last season the 20-year-old raced in both Indy Lights and GP3, for Carlin. He tested with Lotus GP in December at Jerez, finishing inside the top ten.
"The goal in the off-season was to try and put myself in the best position to try and win the championship this season and I have no doubt that I've got the best chance to do so with Lotus GP," said Conor.
Team boss Frederic Vasseur is chuffed with his new signing: "During the off-season tests, we found him to be a charming young driver who is very motivated by his work and his progress in a series which is ultra competitive. The quality of his work and his margin of progress convinced us that he is the man that Lotus GP needed to round out its 2012 line-up."

Spring is here and a very young person might think that means there is plenty of time until the next changing of the seasons. Those of us who have seen a "few" seasons change know better. You'll mow a few times, spend a few days vacationing (if you're lucky), and it'll be time to send the kids back to school and start raking the leaves of fall.
Most people pull out all the stops to decorate for Christmas but you may think it's too much trouble or too expensive to do seasonal decorating. If you have always wanted to make your home's decor change with the seasons, ceramics provides an inexpensive option. As spring arrives, you can pull out a few happy pieces painted in spring colors and - wah-lah - any room in your home can take on the wonder of the budding season. As fall approaches, simply pack away the spring items, pull out some fall items, and you've heralded the coming season.
And if you're looking for a great fall piece to add to your collection, just take a look at this.

What is SLA?
The FUGE Student Leader Apprentice (SLA) program is a two-week experience for students who love camp and want to gain hands-on leadership experience in a camp environment. Students go behind the scenes at FUGE and learn valuable leadership skills within the camp ministry setting. SLA is designed for students who are about to enter or who have just completed their senior year in High School. During the first week of the program students will participate in a variety of experiences including a personality and leadership assessment, ministry sites, recreation, Bible study, development of leadership skills, prayer experiences, worship, etc…
During the second week, students will be apprenticed to a FUGE staffer and will gain hands-on camp experience. Students will serve in a variety of roles, assisting the overall camp program. The apprentice week will give students a first-hand look at camp ministry as well as prepare them for future leadership roles.

Quotes about SLA
"Week one of the program challenged me to examine my heart and see the different ways that God was calling me to step up and lead others in service. Week two provided ample opportunity for me to actually allow God to refine me by putting those very things that needed work into practice. The community of staff encouraged me in so many things ranging from embracing funny awkward moments to pursuing intentional conversation with those around me. My SLA experience still shapes the way I live for Christ today and I wouldn't trade it for anything!"
"As an SLA in 2004, we learned about servant leadership. We looked to Christ as the ultimate example of humility and how He built relationships with those He led. I grew a lot during those two weeks as I not only learned about these principles, but was also given the opportunity to live them out during those two weeks as an SLA. I've carried those lessons in leadership into many experiences throughout my college years, my three summers of working FUGE Camps, and in my job today."
"My experience with SLA was life-changing. I am so thankful for the ways that it challenged me and prepared me for FUGE staff. It made me realize that if I called myself a Christ follower, it was time I started acting like Christ. That means loving the unlovable. It means carrying the Gospel to the darkest places. It means not always being comfortable. It means running hard after the Lord. It means making disciples. It means getting over myself and getting into Jesus."

Can Stop War In Europe Asserts H. Witt Speaker Accuses America of Desiring To Become World Dictator Rhoada, April 26.�The only way to end the war is to stop its spread. said Herbert Witt, Executive Sec- retary of the A. S. U., in speaking to the Bryn Mawr chapter. The United States by herself, he con- tinued, could establish peace almost immediately. If America cuts off her arma- ment trade with England and an- nources peace as her motive, all other neutrals will adopt her pol- icy. Sw:den,' Belgium, Holland, the Balkans, Italy and the Soviet Union would form a ring of neu- trals around the belligerents. Eng- land and Germany, forced to fight each other in a restricted area, would then be stalemated and the war would of necessity cease. While the ensuing peace might not be permanent, neither would be '.he peace made at the end of a continued war if there prevailed at the peace conference the attitude Continued on Page Two Curtain The committee in charge of the production of Iolanthe has decided that this year the curtain will rise promptly at 8.20 albeit to an empty au- ditorium.

Write and Win Trip On Clipper, 1200 Dollars A trip to China on the Clipper and 1200 dollars in cash are offered by the China Essay Contest for the winning essay on Our Stake in the Future of China. The con- test, open to college students throughout the country, is designed to reawaken interest in the Sino- Japanese conflict which holds, in the opinion of the sponsors, a more serious threat to America's destiny than does the European War. The essay is not to exceed 1500 words and must be submitted be- fore June 30, 1940, Contest judges include Dr. Roy Chapman An- drews, Dr. James Rowland Angell, Pearl Buck, Mrs. William Brown Meloney, Theodore Roosevelt, Dr. James T. Shotwell, Senator Elbert D. Thomas, Lowell Thomas, Alex- ander Woollcott, and Rear Admiral H. E. Yarnell. The college from which the winning essay is sub- mitted will receive 300 dollars for the purchase of books on Far East- ern Affairs; and 14,000 dollars will be divided among the winners of second, third, fourth and fifth places. Anyone wishing to enter the contest should apply to Susie Ingalls, 9-13 Pembroke West, for urther details. Graduates Receive Additional Awards / Goodhart, May 1. � Graduate Fellowships and Scholarships which have been awarded since the Grad- uate Assembly were announced by Miss Park at May Day chapel Included in the list were two schoi Continued on Page Eight Resurrected Plav Succeeds By Janet Meyer, '42 The production of Bartholomew Fair on Tuesday afternoon proved its resurrection thoroughly justi- fied, and premature condemnation unnecessary. The informality of an outdoor performance did not de- tract from the interest, and the au- dience scattered through the dell was enthusiastic. The play, although complicated as to plot, was not as "devoid of glamour" as Eleanor Emery, '40, suggested in the Prologue. The ac- tion centered around Justice Over- do, but was so presented that it gave ample opportunity for many character parts. The play began with a short I scene in which the "sweet buds of gentilitv" sought a moral basis for their irreligious desire to eat "pork-like pig" at the country fair. With the fair as background, there followed expressions of hilarious gaiety and the development of the enormities wh:ch Justice Overdo found so irresistible. Mary Alice Sturdevant, '40, as Humphrey Waspe, did well with an unwieldy part. As a contrast to this forbidding figure there was the Tght-hearted, unpuritanical Win L'ttlewit, played by Marion Kirk, '40, who effectively threw moral standards to the winds in one of the most amusing parts of the play. Susan Miller, '40, really seemed to suffer from the sins of the fair- goers, and expressed herself with an impressive dabbling of Latin, adapted from her friend, Horace. Julie Follansbee, '41, concealing herself in the garb of Urs'la, a pig woman, was an enormity in every sense of the word. Her act- ing was positively colossal. Natalie Bell, '43, was coyness itself, while Madge Daly, '42 swept around the stage alarmingly and .with professional assurance, loan Tash, the gingerbread woman, was played by Caroline Garnett, '40, and every time she blossomed forth from behind her booth, hilarity was increased. Eleanor Emery, '40, besides be- ing a stimulant to the play itself, was the power behind its produc- tion.

Hinchman Award Given in Two Fields, Math and Philosophy The Charles Hinchman scholar- ship has this year been awarded to two students, Winifred Kip Bur- roughs and Martha -Kent. Miss Burroughs was recommended for this honor by the Department of Mathematics, and Miss Kent by the Department of Philosophy. As an illustration of Miss Bur- roughs' ability, her department ubmitted several assignments done in the ordinary work which re- vealed her power to make full use �'f previously learned techniques in developing independently given problems. The department feels t' at "at this stage Miss Burroughs has mastered with ease and evident ��njoyment, the methods of quite diverse fields of mathematics." Miss Burroughs has taken Mathematics since freshman year, and as a junior, is now taking two advanced courses. Next year, be- sides doing honors, she will take the fourth year advanced course in t e Theory of Functions of a Com- p'ox Variable.

The importance of this im- pressive list, she declared, lies in the picture it presents of the work being done and the belief it ex- presses in the ability of all brains to be improved by training. To Ruth Lehr went the Brooke Hall Scholarship, awarded to the junior with the highest average. The Hinchman Scholarship, given to the junior who shows the great- est ability in her major subject was divided between Winifred Bur- roughs and Martha Kent. The Sheelah Kilroy awards were received by Susie Ingalls, '41, for the best work in advanced English, and by Mildred McLeskey for the best freshman English paper. Emily Cheney, '40, received the Jeanne Quistgaard Memorial Award in Economics. To Ann Howard was awarded a scholarship of the Pennsylvania Society of New England Women. Barbara Sage, '43, received the Alice Ferree Hayt Memorial Award. Miss Park also announced that the Anna Howard Shaw Lectures would be given next year in the field of Anthropology, by Dr. Ruth Benedict, of Columbia.

Professors Dryden and Watson Raffled As Mixed Crowd Roars at Raucous Party By Ann Ellicott, '42 The Deanery, Ajrrit 25. � On Thursday evening the Deanery re- sounded with the happy social noises of a large group of people participating vigorously in the Vanishing Bridge Party for the benefit of the New Science Build- ing Fund. The bridge itself, sup- plemented by Chinese checkers, slap-jack and a mild form of rou- lette, lasted until ten o'clock, when the numbers were drawn by Mr. Chew for the various and impos- ing array of door prizes. The first numbers drawn were exchanged for Mr. Wyncie King's portraits of the two paragons of the Geology department, Mr. Wat- son and Mr. Dryden. Alison Stokes, '41, received Mr. Watson amid a roar of applause, and Polly Williams, '42, carried off Mr. Dry- den in triumph. Mr. Herben be- came the proud possessor of a corsage certificate from Jeannett's, which he patriotically raffled oft* later in the evening. Fate pre- sented a ham to Doris Dana, '41. Eloise Chadwick-Colliirs received a season ticket for next year's Philadelphia Orchestra. Certifi- cates for orders on various stores were won by Helen Link, '40; Bar- bara Auchincloss, '40; Sheila Cud- ahy, '42, and Marcella Heron, '42. One number was called and re- mained unclaimed during a long, anxious moment, until a soft voice in the audience said, "Look in your pocket, Sam." Looking into his pocket, Mr. Chew found that he was entitled to two jars of jam. After the tumult of the draw- ing had subsided, the. select group of campus intellectuals took the Btand for Contributums Please, and were immediately baffled by the question, "What is the propor- tion of men to women professors on campus?" Mr. Weiss immedi- ately answered "Too much," but was ruled down, the exact answer being 3:2.

First, I used to have an account here, but couldnt login?!?! So I had to create a new one. Oh well I guess. Anyways.
Looking to get our group started back up but we need more people. We play every week. We havent narrowed down a time or day.(It will be static, if you have a preference let me know) We played last year on Sundays at 4:45 at Re-plex/Wentz.
We are considering moving it to Creve Coeur as this will likely get us players from both St. Charles/St. Peters and St.Louis, since it is conveniently located in the middle.Price would be anywhere from $10-15 a person, depending on how many people we get each week You can guarantee a spot each week by prepaying up to a month in advance. We have two goalies at this point but will take reserves. We typically play 22 a side with a goalie on each side. Great for people who have never played, cant skate well. Also great for intermediates. We try to keep teams as even as possible to ensure blanaced so no teams are lopsided. This makes it fun and competitive for everyone and SOOOO much better than drop-in. If interested email me at firstname.lastname@example.com. Make sure to leave some type of contact info, position preferred, etc.
It is ICE. The rink is not fully set in stone, depending on if we got a bunch of other people to comitt to playing somewhere else. Basically we are trying to turn this into a weekly thing where you can expect to play the same day, same time every week. If we can get 20 guys that are willing to do that at kirkwood, fenton, rec-plex etc we will go there.Wherever we can get the most interest
The main thing is to be comitted, so it stays cheap, play competitive hockey and HAVE FUN! With it being a set day and time, it gives people something in the week to look forward to, kind of like drop-in, but ALOT more balanced and fun!
This is also a great avenue for roller people looking to transition to ice. People who have never played/skated before and intermediates. We don't mind skilled people, we just don't want jerks and we will regulate it.
If you are already in a league, thats ok with us too. This could be extra ice time for you and some of your teammates, so long as it doesnt conflict with your schedule. Let me know.
UPDATE: UP TO 27 people, but we will always take MORE!!!!!! BOOKING OF THE ICE WILL HAPPEN SOON, BE CHECKING YOUR EMAILS!!!

The Upper Germanic-Rhaetian Limes, former boundary of the Roman Empire, stretches for some 770km through Germany with around 900 watch towers and 120 sentry posts of various sizes. One of central Europe's most impressive archaeological monuments, it has been awarded UNESCO World Heritage status, together with Hadrian's Wall.
The well signed German Limes Road is the longest cultural monument in Germany and a dream destination for amateur archaeologists and historians. Running from Rheinbrohl on the river Rhine to the Regensburg area on the Danube, the road goes through beautiful countryside, with a host of charming towns, picturesque villages and fascinating cultural and historical stopping points lining the route. Points of interest include fortresses (both large and small), ramparts, palisades, vast Roman baths and living quarters, as well as the Limes towers and the fortification itself, which is the most recent Roman border in Germania. The ancient border was not only an extremely impressive feat of technical engineering, but also marks – as no other monument is able – the exact point where the Roman Empire and the Germanic tribes met. With the 900km Limes Cycle Route running alongside the road, there's no excuse for cyclists not to dabble in a bit of history. And the Limes Tour, with guided walks, themed excursions, bus tours and museum visits, is also a great way to relive a piece of world history, following in the footsteps of the Romans as you imagine life as it was 2,000 years ago. And if all that working has given you an appetite, why not try out a lavish Roman meal, some wine or a traditional medieval banquet?

All the characters are great, very funny and enjoyable to watch. Alice in wonderland is an enchanting story that anyone of any age can sit and enjoy.
3 "Off with its head"carlyboy8 | 13/06/2010 | See all carlyboy8's reviews (9)Alice in wonderland for me was a bit disappointing, I had wanted to see this film for a long time and it didn't live up to my expectations.Although saying that - I wouldn't like to put you off it, because its a decent movie to watch on a sunday afternoon. It just doesn't have the type of charm and magic I was hoping for.But I must say, once again Johnny Depp is amazing
5 Visually SpectacularDaveFaz | 29/07/2010 | See all DaveFaz's reviews (182)Top 100 Reviewer Top 10 DVD Reviewer Top 100 PC Reviewer I know there has been some criticism of the film, and if you are an ardent fan of the book, then you may find the film a little inaccurate, but I have to say that I absolutely loved it. It is visually spectacular. Not just the effects, but the costume and set design leaves your mouth wide open. Burton is the 8th wonder of the world. I also thought that Depp's performance was wonderfully quirky, as only he could be. Lets be honest, the effects are important in the film, so in HD there is even more to stare at. I have no hesitation in recommending the blue ray.
5 BLU-RAY REVIEWmellortt | 04/06/2010 | See all mellortt's reviews (19)The blu-ray for this film is amazing it full screen on a 42" HD 1080p tv and looks fantastic to me this looks better quality than avatarthe Movie an amazing film so good better at home than at pictures this is not a childs film it is a fantasy film and a good one.the video 5/5 looks stunning the colours are great and everything looks real in wonderland5/5 audio cant fault it good 5.1 good bass greatit is a must buy for any tim burton fan or just a person who likes fantasy film any age any one you should like it

Judges' Pick
The culture of our small city in Southern Illinois is very focused on sustainability and appreciation of natural resources. Specifically, there are many beautiful forests to visit in our immediate area. We are surrounded by the Shawnee National Forest, so we have all come to enjoy and respect these places. This is why we jumped at the chance to participate in this competition.
As you will see, we have illustrated a scene of a chair growing roots in an otherwise domestic environment. We wanted to remind the viewer, with dramatic effect, where wood products come from. We illustrated this point by having the roots break up the man-made tiled surface. We believe our image is engaging at first glance, drawing the viewer into the scene to investigate. Upon investigation, the viewer is made aware of their ability to search for and buy responsibly by visiting the website.
This type of image/scene can also be duplicated using a wide range of wood-based products, such as tables, beds, benches, etc., ensuring that the campaign maintains a central theme while staying fresh and engaging in its imagery.
The URL we chose, www.KnowForestry.com, is a statement. It challenges us to learn more about how wood products are being developed. It's short, easy to remember and to the point. We also believe the URL name ties in with your goals of educating the public. People should "know" how responsible management of the world's working forests can help sustain one of the earth's greatest natural resources and how they can do their part by buying responsibly.
(We have confirmed the URLs availability and purchased it.)
Thank you in advance for your consideration of our entry.

NEW WILMINGTON, Pa. - Nine Westminster College senior early childhood/special education majors received undergraduate research grants from Westminster's Drinko Center for Experiential Learning and presented their research at the Pennsylvania Council for Exceptional Children (PACEC) Convention in November.
"The Kindle Project II" examined whether reading the Kindle versus reading a regular hardbound book would help students with learning disabilities with reading comprehension and fluency. For 12 weeks the Westminster students monitored 60 students in grades 6-8 at a middle school in the suburbs of Youngstown, Ohio. Half the students were given a Kindle to use and all students were instructed to read 90 minutes a week. The Westminster students tested the middle school students four different times on their reading fluency and comprehension skills. The results showed that all students had improved comprehension and fluency simply because they were forced to read more and had a set time to read.
"The research we conducted was a very beneficial experience. It took everything we've discussed in class and applied it," Amber Yanchar said. "This project allowed us to actually get involved and witness first-hand how to assess and improve reading comprehension/fluency. Not only did we learn a lot from this project, but so did the cooperating school. They didn't have a set system to monitor and assess their students' reading comprehension and fluency. Now they have implemented a progress monitoring system throughout the district."
At the PACEC conference the Westminster students presented an oral and PowerPoint presentation on their research and results. Additionally, the students were able to attend informational sessions on topics such as technology, autism, and behavioral interventions. They also were able to interact with many vendors, educational organizations and companies - resources that will be beneficial to the students once they are working in a classroom.
The students will present again at the Westminster Undergraduate Research and Arts Celebration April 24. Over 200 students from all forms of disciplines who have engaged in scholarly research and creative projects will participate.
The students' advisers on this project are Dr. Amy Camardese, associate professor of education and chair of department, and Dr. Eileen Morelli, associate professor of education.
Contact Camardese at (724) 946-7183 or email for additional information.
The Drinko Center for Experiential Learning was created to enrich undergraduate education at Westminster through advancing world-class teaching as well as by participating in collaborations that address community and regional needs including strengthening K-12 education. The Undergraduate Research Initiative provides funding for students to conduct research and to present their research at regional and national conferences.

Honorable Mention
To develop the FSC Awareness Campaign For Sustainable Forestry, I first developed a clear and strong message that resonates to the core of what we are trying to achieve, "Respect The Tree & Buy FSC." The message also relates to the suggested URL name, "www.respectthetree.org." This relationship allows the campaign to become more successful in its goal of awareness and getting the audience to remember and visit the website to search and buy FSC Certified products.
Secondly, I created a strong design theme to enhance the message with a graphical story. The shape of a chainsaw is an iconic shaped tool that is instantly recognizable to many. I utilized the iconic shape, but added a twist that tells a story. I used the teeth of the saw to show the lifecycle of a responsible forested tree/forest. The story is told in an oval/circular motion that allows for this story to happen over and over again. Responsible Forestry at its finest.
Overall look and feel also enhances the recognizable nature of the campaign. Using the wood grain texture and the burned brand mark gives the campaign a unique look that is instantly recognizable and wont be confused with any other ad campaign or brand currently in the market.

What Your Test Results Mean - Negative Test Result
Studies have proven that both conventional and rapid HIV tests are highly accurate when they show an HIV-positive result.
But a negative result may not always be accurate. It depends on when you might have been exposed to HIV and when you took the test.
It takes time for seroconversion to occur. This is when your body begins to produce the antibodies an HIV test is looking for—anywhere from 2 weeks to 6 months after infection. So if you have an HIV test with a negative result within 3 months of your last possible exposure to HIV, the CDC recommends that you be retested 3 months after that first screening test.
A negative result is only accurate if you have not had any risks for HIV infection in the last 6 months—and a negative result is only good for past exposure. If you get a negative test result, but continue to engage in high-risk behaviors, you are still at risk for HIV infection. For information on risk behaviors and how HIV is transmitted, please see CDC's HIV Basics page on HIV transmission.
What Your Test Results Mean - Positive Test Result
If your initial HIV test comes back positive, you will automatically be offered a confirmatory test. If the confirmatory test is also positive, you will be diagnosed as "HIV-positive."
At this point, the person giving you your test results will discuss what having HIV means for you and your health. You will be informed about how the virus can affect you and how to protect others from becoming infected. You will also be informed about resources and treatments available to you. Finally, you will be referred to a medical professional for follow-up treatment.
Next Steps if you are HIV-positive
If you are diagnosed with HIV, you should do the following things—even if you don't feel sick:
- Find a doctor or licensed healthcare provider who has experience treating HIV. It is important to maintain a relationship with a healthcare provider you trust. Contact your local health department for a referral if you don't know how to find a provider with HIV experience.
- Get screened for other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and for TB (tuberculosis). Undetected co-infections, such as STDs and TB, can cause serious health complications—and having HIV makes you more vulnerable to those complications.
- Maintain a healthy lifestyle. This is crucial for success in treating HIV. Smoking, drinking too much, or taking illegal drugs can weaken your immune system, allowing the virus to replicate and grow.
- Safer sex practices are very important. Condoms are very effective in preventing HIV transmission when used correctly and consistently.
- Tell your partner(s) about your HIV status before you have any type of sexual contact (vaginal, anal, or oral) and don't share needles or syringes.

Published April 4, 2012
A hundred years ago, on April 15, 1912, an iceberg brought down the supposedly unsinkable Titanic in the North Atlantic.
If the legendary ship sailed today, it would likely encounter many more icebergs, possibly due to global warming, scientists say. (Also see: "Titanic Sunk by 'Supermoon' and Celestial Alignment?")
"It's a surprising thought that global warming would lead to more icebergs," said Frank Lowenstein, head of climate-adaptation strategy for the Nature Conservancy.
Earth's average global temperature has increased by about 1.4 degrees Fahrenheit (0.8 degree Celsius) since 1880, according to NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies. Two-thirds of that warming has happened since 1975.
Those warming air and ocean temperatures may be increasing the rate at which icebergs form, Lowenstein said.
As more ice melts under glaciers and ice sheets—particularly in Greenland and Antarctica—the water lubricates the ice masses, sending them to sea, and eventual breakup, at a faster rate.
"It's like spraying WD-40 in there," Lowenstein said. "More icebergs can form, because each glacier is bringing hundreds to thousands of extra tons of ice per year to the ocean."
Also, warm air can cause water to pool on the ice's surface. As the liquid sinks into cracks in the ice, the ice can become unstable and eventually split apart altogether.
Giant Ice Cubes
Melting glaciers and ice sheets shed something between 100 to 200 gigatons of ice a year, according to the most recent estimates, he said. "Each gigaton is a kilometer cubed—that's a big ice cube."
All those big ice cubes likely add up to more icebergs in the North Atlantic today than during Titanic's 1912 voyage.
"If the ship sailed today on the same trajectory, it seems likely it would encounter more icebergs," said Jeremy Bassis, a glaciologist at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor.
Because the patterns of ice distribution in the ocean shift all the time, it's impossible to predict where icebergs occur and their sizes—so scientists can't say exactly how many icebergs Titanic encountered in 1912 or would encounter today, the Nature Conservancy's Lowenstein added.
What we do know, though, is that ice sheets and glaciers worldwide are shrinking, and seem to be doing so at an increasingly rapid pace.
(Read "The Big Thaw" in National Geographic magazine.)
Iceberg Calving Hard to Correlate With Global Warming
The University of Michigan's Bassis cautioned that it's impossible to say whether global warming is responsible for more icebergs.
"The short answer is, nobody really knows—iceberg calving is one of those things that's really hard to predict," he said.
"It's kind of like asking the question, Is this big storm we have related to global warming? Just because we have one event doesn't mean you can necessarily attribute it."
There are a few examples of warming temperatures contributing to iceberg creation on a regional basis, however.
In Greenland, there's evidence that warm ocean currents infiltrated the Jakobshavn glacier (map) right about the time it started to disintegrate. The glacier's tongue—the part that once stuck out into the sea—was completely gone by 2003, Bassis said.
And Antarctica's Larsen B ice shelf had been stable for 10,000 years before it collapsed in just six weeks in 2002, possibly due to water penetrating into its cracks, Bassis said. That shelf had been located in one of the fastest-warming areas in the world. (Related: "Ice Shelf Collapses Reveal New Species, Ecosystem Changes.")
"Nobody expected it to happen that quickly," Bassis said.
Overall, "observations seem to convincingly show that over the past decade or so, both the Antarctic ice sheet and Greenland ice sheet are, on balance, losing mass to the ocean," he said. "We have seen very dramatic changes."
But "it's hard to link any specific change to global climate change."
Sea Level Rise a Concern
An increase in icebergs wouldn't necessarily endanger modern vessels, the Nature Conservancy's Lowenstein cautioned. Ships and boats now use sophisticated radar that can spot the floating ice masses well in advance.
Unlike in Titanic's time, "you don't have to rely on two guys trying to stay awake in a crow's nest in the middle of a frigid April night." (See a Titanic wreck-site map).
What's more, just weeks after the Titanic disaster, companies moved the notoriously iceberg-ridden shipping route from New York to London farther south. The change added 9 to 14 hours to the trip, but made it much safer for ships, said Lowenstein, who has researched Titanic history.
(Watch an animation of Titanic's iceberg collision, breakup, and sinking.)
Of greater concern today is the role icebergs play in sea level rise, particularly when they first float off into the sea, the University of Michigan's Bassis said.
"Let's say you have a glass of water and add a bunch of ice cubes"—like icebergs calving from ice sheets—"then that water level goes up."
Core samples, tide gauge readings, and, most recently, satellite measurements show that, over the past century, the global mean sea level has risen by 4 to 8 inches (10 to 20 centimeters), according to according to the U.S. government's Global Change Research Program. How much of that increase is attributable to icebergs, though, is unclear.
(See pictures of melting ice around the world in National Geographic magazine.)
Adapting to Extreme Events
Scientists predict global warming will lead to more extreme events in coming years, including more wildfires and coastal erosion—impacts that may already be happening in some places, the Nature Conservancy's Lowenstein said. (See an interactive map of global warming's effects.)
But there are ways people can respond, such as thinning forests to slow fires or planting oyster beds to prevent shoreline erosion, Lowenstein said.
"People changed their behavior in response to the Titanic catastrophe," he said—for example by providing more lifeboats on cruise ships. (Pictures: Five Cruise Ship Disasters That Changed Travel.)
Adopting new habits, he said, is "one of the things we need to start doing more of in the climate change realm."
