Faculty Bio
Konrad Talbot, PhD
Assistant Research Professor in Neurobiology
Department of Psychiatry Bio
Dr. Talbot received his Ph.D. in behavioral neuroscience from UCLA in 1989. He then taught that subject as an assistant professor in psychology first at Mount St. Mary's College in California (1990-1995) and then St. Olaf College in Minnesota (1995-1997). At the latter college, Dr. Talbot introduced a seminar on biological psychiatry and began student-assisted research on Alzheimer Disease (AD) with postmortem tissue from controls donated by Immanuel-St. Joseph's Hospital in Mankato and from AD cases donated by the Alzheimer Research Center in St. Paul. That awakened an interest in pursuing full-time clinical research, which led Dr. Talbot to become a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania (1997-2001). During that fellowship, he acquired the skills needed for research in molecular pathology and used them to study membrane pathology and insulin signaling abnormalities in AD. Given his earlier interests in the molecular basis of psychiatric disorders, Dr. Talbot accepted an invitation from Dr. Steven Arnold in 2001 to become a senior research investigator in his laboratory here in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Pennsylvania. In that capacity, Dr. Talbot continued work on insulin signaling abnormalities in AD and began studying aspects of synaptic pathology in schizophrenia, especially depletion of a novel protein (dysbindin-1) encoded by a gene often found to be associated with schizophrenia. Those topics have been the focus of his research since his faculty appointment here in January, 2008.
While trained broadly in behavioral neuroscience, Dr. Talbot's particular expertise lies in neuroanatomical and neurochemical analyses of the mammalian central nervous system. He is a long-term consultant on mouse and rat brain atlases and serves when needed as a dissector for the brain autopsy team of the Center for Neurodegenerative Research at the University of Pennsylvania. Apart from light and electron microscopy, his primary technical skills are in various anatomical and molecular methods revealing the structure, input-output organization, and/or chemical composition of neuronal networks that mediate behavior. Dr. Talbot's research group has optimized these methods for postmortem tissue, permitting detection in human tissue of small protein levels, fractionation of synaptosomes into pre- and post-synaptic elements, and quantification of phosphorylated forms of proteins in intact tissue sections. Building on his graduate training in animal behavior, Dr. Talbot helped establish colonies for behavioral genetics studies relevant to schizophrenia research. His expertise has been called upon as a reviewer for journals such as Biological Psychiatry, Diabetes, Molecular Psychiatry, Schizophrenia Research and as symposium chair at the American College of Neuropsychopharmacology and the Society for Neuroscience.
Research Interests
The primary research interest of Dr. Talbot is discovery of pathological processes that contribute to disabling cognitive deficits in neurodegenerative and psychiatric disorders. He and his coworkers have found two candidates for such pathological processes as noted earlier: synaptic depletion of dysbindin-1 in schizophrenia and altered neuronal insulin signaling in AD and. Dr. Talbot is leading research projects investigating both those phenomena as described below.
Schizophrenia is a severe psychiatric disorder that comes to clinical attention with onset of the first psychotic symptoms, which usually occurs between ages 20 and 35. It is estimated that about 50 million people alive today are afflicted by the disorder or will be in their lifetimes. The diagnostic features are dominated by what are called positive symptoms defining psychosis (delusions, hallucinations, and thought disorders) and by negative symptoms reflecting absence of normal behaviors such as inability to experience pleasure, blunted emotional expression, poverty of speech, lack of initiative, and reduced social interactions [1]. In addition to diagnostic symptoms are cognitive deficits that are also core features of the disorder.
While current drug treatments often alleviate the positive symptoms, they are ineffective against the negative symptoms and only partially effective against the cognitive deficits of the disorder. Yet these two features have a far greater impact on ability to function than the positive symptoms [2]. Effective treatments for the negative symptoms and cognitive deficits of schizophrenia are thus urgently needed. The need is urgent not only because of the suffering endured by the patients and their families, but because of the large health care costs and lost income caused by the disorder each year (estimated at £6.7 billion in the U.K. and $62.7 billion in the U.S.A.).
Since 2002, many new drug targets for treatment of schizophrenia have emerged with discovery of many genes associated with risk for the disorder. Among the top risk genes is DTNBP1, which has been associated with schizophrenia in 18 studies on populations across the globe [3]. One or more of the schizophrenia-related alleles of DTNBP1 are found to be associated with some of the patients' positive and negative symptoms, as well as with several of their cognitive deficits. Some of these alleles are also associated with patient responsiveness to typical and atypical antipsychotic medications.
Dysbindin-1 Pathology in Schizophrenia
The protein encoded by DTNBP1 (the dystrobrevin binding protein 1 gene) was the first member of the dysbindin protein family to be discovered and is thus best known as dysbindin-1. Reported in 2001, this protein is ubiquitously expressed in neurons but is concentrated only in synaptic fields where glutamate, dopamine, and/or GABA act as transmitters [3]. Based on postmortem research conducted in the laboratory of Professor Steven E. Arnold at UPenn, Dr. Talbot and his colleagues discovered that schizophrenia cases have reduced levels of dysbindin-1 in a brain area dysfunctional in such cases, namely the hippocampal formation (HF, see Fig. 1) [4]. This consists of the hippocampus proper (fields CA1-CA3), dentate gyrus, and subiculum. Reduced dysbindin-1 was found in both sets of schizophrenia cases studied: middle-aged cases of the Stanley Foundation and elderly cases of the UPenn. Compared to normal individuals, 73% of the younger cases and 93% of the older ones showed dysbindin-1 reductions in axon terminals of HF neurons that use glutamate as a transmitter. These terminals allow direct communication among the principal neurons of the HF and help mediate the cognitive functions of this brain area. Later work on an animal model of dysbind-1 loss (sandy mice) confirmed that such loss impairs cognitive function (see below).
The UPenn Dysbindin-1 Project
With funding from the National Institute of Mental Health, Drs. Talbot and Arnold initiated a multidisciplinary study on the neurobiology of synaptic dysbindin-1 in schizophrenia and in sandy mice, which have a deletion mutation in DTNBP1 that leads to dysbindin-1 loss (see Fig. 2). The project is an international collaboration with other investigators at UPenn (Natalia Louneva and Gregory C. Carlson), Cardiff University in the U.K. (Derek J. Blake and Nigel M. Williams), and the National University of Singapore (Wei-Yi Ong). The project has access to postmortem brains from schizophrenia cases who participated in a longitudinal study of the disorder conducted by UPenn [5].
The dysbindin-1 project has made several discoveries in recent years. Among the more important findings are the following. (1) Reduced synaptic dysbindin-1 is common not only in the HF of schizophrenia cases, but in other brain areas of such cases (i.e., prefrontal [6] and auditory cortices). Reduction in the latter area may promote auditory hallucinations. (2) Where tested thus far, these reductions are not due to decreased dysbindin-1 gene expression, suggesting other factors such as altered protein synthesis and metabolism [6]. (3) One such factor is the E3 ubiquitin ligase TRIM32, a newly discovered dysbindin-1 binding partner, which appears to regulate levels of at least one dysbindin-1 isoform [7]. (4) Dysbindin-1 is associated with synaptic vesicles and binds another protein (snapin) associated with those vesicles [8], which helps explain how dysbindin-1 promotes glutamate release [3]. (5) Dysbindin-1 loss in sandy mice is associated cognitive deficits found in schizophrenia [9]. Other labs report similar observations in sandy mice and find that such mice show a negative symptom of schizophrenia (social withdrawal) [10].
Future directions of the Dysbindin-1 Project
There are two long-term goals of the dysbindin-1 project. One is discovering means of restoring normal levels of this protein in schizophrenia. The other is discovering means of compensating for the functional consequences of reduced dysbindin-1. This requires discovering the molecular mechanisms by which synaptic levels of dysbindin-1 are regulated (e.g., TRIM32-mediated degradation of the protein) and by which reductions of the protein promotes symptoms and cognitive deficits in schizophrenia (e.g., snapin-related modulation of synaptic glutamate release). Such work holds the promise of translating basic research on dysbindin-1 into pharmacological treatment for as yet refractory clinical features of schizophrenia.
(2) Alzheimer Disease
Over the last decade, an increasing number of studies have shown (a) that type 2 diabetes is a risk factor for AD [11], (b) that gene and protein expression of the upstream molecules in insulin signaling pathways are reduced in AD brains [12], and (3) that the activated forms of those molecules are also reduced in such brains [13, 14]. The latter two findings indicate impaired brain insulin signaling in AD, but they do not establish that the deduced impairment occurs in neurons, that it occurs downstream in the insulin signaling pathway, or that it contributes to the prominent cognitive deficits in AD.
To address these possibilities, Dr. Talbot initiated a project testing upstream and downstream components of neuronal insulin signaling in a brain area affected early in AD (i.e., hippocampal field CA1) where damage impairs memory. This project, funded by the Alzheimer Disease Association, has been conducted in collaboration with Drs. Steven Arnold and John Trojanowski here at UPenn and with Drs. David Bennett and Robert Wilson at Rush University in Chicago.
The UPenn Insulin Signaling in AD Project
This studies postmortem tissue from two sets of cases. One is a set of elderly controls and AD cases collected by the Center for Neurodegenerative Disease Research at UPenn. The other is a set of normal elderly, mild cognitively impaired (MCI), and AD cases collected by the Religious Order Study run by Rush University in Chicago. Using quantitative immunohistochemistry with phospho-specific antibodies, Dr. Talbot demonstrated chronic changes in phosphorylation of both upstream and downstream insulin signaling molecules in hippocampal CA1 neurons in both sets of cases [13]. Such changes were different in upstream versus downstream molecules of the insulin signaling pathway. The insulin receptor in AD was less tyrosine phosphorylated, indicating chronically decreased receptor activation. Yet phosphorylation of all downstream molecules in the insulin signaling (e.g., Akt and GSK-3) pathway indicated chronically increased activation of those molecules, consistent with evidence of increased feedback inhibition on the molecule (i.e., insulin receptor substrate 1, IRS-1) that controls downstream signaling from the insulin receptor. These results suggest insulin signaling is not so much impaired as dysregulated in AD due to factors driving downstream parts of the signaling pathway that are independent of the insulin receptor (e.g., oligomeric beta amyloid effects on Akt via glutamatergic NMDA receptors reported by other labs).
Several other discoveries of the project are of interest for translational research. First, the findings described above were not limited to AD cases with a history of diabetes and hence are applicable to AD in general. Second, the phosphorylation changes seen in AD often occurred to a lesser degree in MCI cases. Since MCI cases often go on to develop AD, dysregulated neuronal insulin signaling may occur early in the pathogenesis of AD. Third, the alterations in phosphorylation of insulin signaling molecules observed in MCI and AD cases were significantly and negatively correlated with indices of cognitive status of those cases, suggesting that such alterations contribute to the pathophysiology of AD dementia. Finally, while elevated serine phosphorylation of IRS-1 was found to be a striking feature of MCI and especially AD, it was not found to be a significant feature of any other form of dementia. As a result, elevated serine phosphorylation of IRS-1 may be a biomarker for an early differential diagnosis of AD if it can be detected in blood or CSF.

Are You Serious?! Democrat Congressman Flips Out on GOP Obstructionists! (Video)
Mike Walker
Americans Against The Tea Party
October 29, 2013
A long time ago in a land named America, a loud-mouth bigot named Joe McCarthy tried to bury American Idealism under a huge, stinking mound of communist BS. A few of you will recall the heroic words of Joseph N. Welch as he stared McCarthy down in one of the most dramatic moments in our history. His eyes steely with resolve, Welch asked McCarthy, Have you no sense of decency, sir? At long last, have you left no sense of decency? Welch had big nuggets, and it seems at long last, some other Democrats are actually growing a pair themselves.
Today, during yet another Obama-witch hunt congressional hearing on the Affordable Care Act, Representative Bill Pascrell (D-NJ) apparently had heard enough. He stood up and unloaded on Republicans and their attempts to kill Obamacare. With his temples throbbing and a look of sheer disgust on his face, he said to the Republican Committee Chairman:
When Republican Tim Griffin (TX) responded that there were a number of workable alternatives to Obamacare, Pascrell had had enough.
What are you going to do about the approximately 17 million children with preexisting conditions who can no longer be denied health insurance coverage, Parscrell asked the GOP during a House hearing on Obamacare. Standing up and pointing his finger at the other side of the aisle, he continued, We want to go back and want to say you are no longer covered any longer are you going to tell the parents of those kids?
Wow! A Democrat with balls the size of Joe Welchs! A man standing up (literally) and demanding decency and an end to the public charade of anti-Obama theatrics, being pushed ad-infinitum onto all of us, by the Republican/TEA party controlled House of Representatives.
Are you serious, what you just said? Pascrell said, standing and becoming visibly angry. Are you really serious? After what we have gone through? After what weve gone through in the last three and a half years? You can sit there and say that you had a legitimate alternative? After these years? Weve gone through 44 votes 48 votes now of you trying to dismantle this legislation. You call that cooperation? I dont.
I was thinking that this story reminded me of another I heard just last week. Seems another Democratic Representative from New Jersey, Mr. Frank Pallone, had his own Joe Welch moment during yet another hearing; this one focused on the Healthcare.gov website. Apparently some of the Republicans had suggested that Obamacare was illegal, because the application form was not HIPAA compliant! The following exchange brought tears of joy to my eyes. Pallone: I started out in my opening statement saying there was no legitimacy to this hearing and the last line of the questioning certainly confirms is that. HIPAA only applies when theres health information being provided. Thats not in play here today. No health information is required in the application process. And why is that? Because pre-existing conditions dont matter! So once again, here we have my Republican colleagues trying to scare everybody Barton, interrupting: If the gentleman will yield? Pallone: No, I will not yield to this monkey court! Did you hear that? monkey court and Are you serious? out of the mouths of Democrats! In less than a week now, two Democratic Representatives, both from New Jersey, have found their family jewels. Maybe those folks in the Garden State have been eating their garden-grown veggies!

The servers aren't even open, that's why. Right now they're doing tests, so they'll limit who plays and when they play. As of right now, I only know of 2 dates, 11th and 15th so wait until than before asking anything about logging in.
I'd also like to point out, during the last test (people were limited, I was accepted though), the first few days, some people had trouble logging in. (Including me, it was in the news but it was fixed for me on the last day)

Lance Armstrong's expected confession that he used performance-enhancing drugs could be a positive for cycling, if he helps drug enforcement agencies police cheaters, Jonathan Vaughters said Tuesday.
"If Lance chooses to come forward and be honest and helpful with USADA and WADA and really change the direction of the sport, then I have to be encouraged by that," said Vaughters, the CEO of Boulder-based Team Garmin-Sharp, from his team's training camp in Calpe, Spain.
According to The Associated Press, Armstrong told Oprah Winfrey on Monday that he used performance-enhancing drugs during his career, which included a record seven consecutive Tour de France wins. The first 90 minutes of the two-part interview will air Thursday on the Oprah Winfrey Network at 7 p.m. MST.
Vaughters, a teammate of Armstrong's on U.S. Postal Service in 1998-99, said Armstrong apparently found a way to avoid testing positive.
"You've got to think, how exactly did he get away with it for so long?" Vaughters said. "He can help with new tests: 'This is how I circumvented the tests.' He'd be helpful in explaining exactly how he was able to work the system so his tests weren't positive.
"That type of information is extremely useful" to the World Anti-Doping Agency and U.S. Anti-Doping Agency, he said.
Vaughters said he doesn't know how helpful Armstrong will be with the drug-enforcement agencies. The Justice Department is investigating him for contract fraud after U.S. Postal Service, his government-sponsored team, paid him $40 million from 1996-2004.
Reaction around the state's cycling community to Armstrong admitting he doped was varied. Alan Fine, owner of Turin Bicycles on Lincoln Street, has been in the business for 40 years. He said many recreational cyclists' only exposure to bike racing has been through Armstrong.
"Among hard-core cyclists, it's pretty mixed," Fine said. "We don't know what Lance's apology seems to be. We haven't seen the interview. But if Lance says something like everybody was doing it and it leveled the playing field, you know what? It's true."
Fine said the problem some have with Armstrong is not what he did but that he lied about it.
"That's a drag," Fine said. "He lied in sworn testimony but hey, Barry Bonds, take your pick of baseball players who lied. It happens in all sports. We've seen the results. Sammy Sosa and Barry Bonds didn't get in the Hall of Fame because of doping."
Jimmy Doogan, who hosts a sports radio talk show on Mile High Sports, said most of his callers are still Armstrong fans.
"They think Lance Armstrong was a feel-good story," Doogan said. "It doesn't bother them. Go back and talk about Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa's battle for the single-season home run record. (Fans) don't care. Will they hold (Armstrong) in a different light now that he's confessed? Some will, but overall they don't care. They enjoy the success story about his testicular cancer and how he overcame that."
Armstrong must make a full confession under oath — not just an admission in a television interview — if he wants authorities to consider lifting his lifetime ban from sports, the director of the WADA told The Associated Press.
Armstrong has been in conversations with USADA about a possible confession to authorities and a path to restoring his eligibility.
International Olympic Committee vice president Thomas Bach said Armstrong should provide a complete confession to USADA or WADA.
"The TV interview is not the right platform," he told the AP.

Crews worked through some rain Friday morning to repair a sinkhole that spanned the width of a two-lane road.
The Highway Patrol said Lee Road in Williamston, near Sweet Home Road, had a sinkhole open up around 8 p.m. Thursday night.
Crews filled the hole with rocks on Friday, and the road was allowed to reopen by the afternoon.
Workers told WITN it is likely that a pipe leak under the roadway caused enough erosion under the asphalt to trigger the cave-in.
Troopers said the sinkhole appeared about 2 feet across, 3 feet deep, yet it spanned the entire width of the 2-lane road.
Previous Story:
The Highway Patrol says a road in Martin County collapsed due to a sinkhole. Department of Transportation crews responded about 8:00 pm Thursday and are working to fix the gap on Lee Road near Sweet Home Road in Williamston overnight. Troopers say the sinkhole is about 2 feet across, 3 feet deep, and spans the entire width of the 2-lane road. The DOT says the road is expected to reopen by 4:00 pm Friday, but rain could delay the repair.

Video: "I'd like to buy jurors pit bulls," says Jose Baez
Related Links
Kissimee, Florida - Jose Baez was notorious during the Casey Anthony trial for two things: fiercely protecting his client and saying very little to the media.
The lead defense attorney on the high-profile case would walk briskly into the Orange County Courthouse each day, briefcase in hand, and give a quick smile to anxious reporters.
Three months later, Baez broke his silence by coming out today and speaking firsthand with only one television station in the Bay area, WTSP-TV.
The Orlando-based attorney said he had a message for Pinellas County jurors.
Two words: "Thank you."
Baez said he wished he could reach out to the Pinellas jurors personally, but it would be an ethics violation. After the jurors' names were released Tuesday morning, Baez admonished members of the media for seeking out the men and women who served on the case.
"They made their decision," he said, speaking in front of his office in Kissimmee. "Let it go already."
As for the media frenzy surrounding the jurors' identities, Baez said he was disappointed and disgusted with the way the media was hunting down jurors and publishing their names.
"I think it's absurd. They didn't ask to be jurors. They were picked."
Judge Belvin Perry issued a "cooling-off" period right after the trial, saying that the jurors' names would not be released for three months.
Jurors were given the opportunity to speak with members of the media minutes after the verdict was announced. The press conference was scheduled in a private room in the Orange County Courthouse, just feet away from the actual courtroom. It was going to be an organized, closely-monitored press conference where reporters questions would be handled in a certain order, and each person could only ask one question.
The jurors declined to answer any questions. Instead, they were driven back to Pinellas County in a unmarked, white van, presumably so no one would know who they were.
In the following days after the not-guilty verdict, only a select few spoke. The remaining jurors either refused to give an interview or hired an agent and then demanded five-figure offers from any interested parties.
Pinellas nursing student Jennifer Ford spoke early on about the case, talking about the difficult job jurors had.
"We cried when we made our decision," she said. "It was not easy for us."
Baez would not give any comment today about his client, who is currently hiding out and serving her one-year probation on check fraud charges. "I am only talking about the jurors," he said.
Baez said the members of the jury need to be treated with respect and dignity and that reporters should not be knocking on their doors. "I think it's outrageous," he told 10 News. "Let's move forward, not backward."
As for the safety of the jurors, 10 News spoke with both the Pinellas County Sheriff's Office and the St. Petersburg Police Department. Both agencies have the jurors' names and addresses and have not received any additional requests for security.
The St. Petersburg Police Department admits it has been monitoring the safety of the jurors ever since the trial, but would not go into detail about specific precautions taken.
Baez was on his way to Harvard Law School on Tuesday night to speak with students. Before he left, he was asked if he read reports online about his client. He joked, "The only thing I pay attention to online is news about the Seminoles and the Yankees."
And, as far as the safety of the jurors, he said, "I wish I could buy all of them pit bulls. They deserve to be safe. I don't want this to stop anyone from wanting to serve on a jury in the future."

Portraits of Johann Joachim Winckelmann (left) and Giorgio Vasari (right).
As an almost 10-year-long devotee of the visual arts, I take it for granted that they are worthy of study. The Western art world as a whole (and art historians in particular) owe a debt of gratitude to those who paved the way for arts scholarship. In the 1500s, Giorgio Vasari, and in the 1700s, Johann Joachim Winckelmann both initiated their own types of study for the visual arts. Their respective outputs are exhaustive and include both archaeology (Winckelmann) and connoisseurship (Vasari) in addition to formalist art critique.
In general, how did art historical study begin? Well, with Vasari, it began with an interest in promoting his own populace, the Florentines. Yes, Vasari was very patriotic and one of his primary aims was to establish Florence as superior to other cities in terms of art. Although Florence was no slouch when it came to churning out master artists in the 16th century, Vasaris interest in promoting primarily Florence is one of the drawbacks to his scholarship. The ability to know and work around this bias is one of the duties of the modern-day art historian. Besides just doing the research to get the facts from the past, we also need to be aware of distinctive cultural biases as well as any other factors that may color the interpretation of an event.
One of the most important things about Vasaris research is his focus on connoisseurship. For instance, he focused very intently on tiny details. Like, tiny details. He claimed to be able to identify the hand of the same artist in two artworks because the thumbnails were painted in the same manner. An anecdote to be sure, but reflective of Vasaris emphasis on empirical evidence just the same.
Venus de Milo, circa 130-100 B.C., Parisian marble, height 80 inches, photograph by Johann H. Addicks, Cc.
Winckelmann, on the other hand, loved Antiquity. Loved it. He preferred the noble simplicity and quiet grandeur of the Greeks to any other type of art, most especially the art of his own time, Baroque. He covered Roman and Greco-Roman art in his writings, too, but Greece had his heart. He believed we should measure ourselves against the Ancients because they stressed proportion and perfection. Idealized art. Beautiful bodies. He felt nature is too varied, too prone to chance and deviation to model fine art after.
In sum, both Vasari and Winckelmann were interested in the look of things, the aesthetics of a work of art. They did not dabble in philosophical debate. They did not despair over the conceptual precursors of a physical piece of art. So, the beginnings of art history were written. These were some progressive men. Not to confuse progressive with experimental or avant-garde. Winckelmann and Vasari simply began something which we are continually redefining to this day the discipline of art history.

Tom Matthews
Andrew Isaacs and his Manchester, Conn., team are 3-4 this season and struggling a little bit so the 2013 tight end who already has offers from Boston College and Connecticut can relate to the Eagles' difficulties.Isaacs, a 6-foot-3, 230-pound recruit, was in attendance Thursday night when Florida State defeated Boston College and said in a way he understands how it feels when things just aren't going your way."I understand how it's going there because our season is getting pretty rough too," Isaacs said. "It's not like I'm done with them but I'm going to have to see what happens because who knows if it's going to be the same coaching staff if they keep losing like this."Isaacs, who said he's been hearing more from Miami in recent weeks, said he had an enjoyable time at the game and that things were exciting early on before they started getting out of hand.One thing that surprised Isaacs was the smaller amount of fans that stayed at the game and while that won't have a major influence on his decision it was something that caught him a little off guard."We ended up staying at the hotel later than we wanted so we got there in time for the game but we didn't get to eat or anything," Isaacs said. "We went on the field and we saw the band and then after that we went to go watch the game."It was an entertaining game. It was just that BC didn't play that great. I was shocked because I expected there to be more attendance but there wasn't as many people as I thought. For the early part, the crowd was into it and then they scored and then they kept scoring and it wasn't too great after that."Prior to the game, Isaacs had a chance to talk with assistant coaches Dave Brock and Mike Siravo and then after the game the local prospect had a chance to see Siravo again but obviously everyone around the Boston College program was disappointed in the 38-7 outcome.Isaacs said he still likes Boston College very much but he hasn't had a ton of contact with the staff throughout the season so he's playing the waiting game in his recruitment."After the game I talked to coach Siravo a little bit and he looked really disappointed," Isaacs said. "He said it's a really young team and they're trying to get better."The coaches over there I like them a lot because they're like a family but I don't talk to them as much as I used to earlier in the season so I don't know." ...More...

A police cruiser had to be towed from the southeast side of town after an officer slid through an intersection and hit a curb.
The Colorado Springs Police Department says that the officer was trying to stop at a stop sign at Aviation and Zeppelin around 4 a.m., but due to road conditions was unable to stop the vehicle. The officer was not injured, but the patrol car sustained damage to its front end.
Police say the roads were snow-packed and icy at the time of the accident.

Hey guys,
I have received an open invitation to return to Alteil via email. I have seen the cashier is up and running. I have seen some sales promotions. I have the distinct impression Alteil is fully open again.
The shop is unchanged.
I can not and will not recommend this game to anyone while that is operating in the same fashion that has in the past. I can not and will not invest another dime until that is fixed.
What are you doing? Advertising the game as open without fixing the fundamentals is only going to get people to come back - see nothing changed - then leave never to return, all the while **** and complaining to everyone who ever mentions it to them. New people will come and meet older players who will scare them off with statistics like $280-420 for a set. You have not addressed the shop at all. You are basically stealing from anyone who invests money at this juncture, you know this, and yet you have taken this step.
After all of the forward planning you put into the re-open was this your intention?
Seriously, what the **** ARE YOU DOING?

World history can influence our lives through simple history fairs like the one we did, because it gives people a chance to learn about geography, culture, different ethnicities, and more. We find out about a bunch of stuff we never knew we would be interested in, in a cool, neat way by seeing visual aides and attractive poster boards that catch our eye so we can learn something new without being bored to death through a lecture. My guiding question is: "Was Cleopatra more of an Egyptian or Greek monarch?" I learned that she was born in the winter of 69 BCE (specifically with the 'E') and her siblings are as follows, from oldest to youngest: Berenice, Cleopatra Trypheona, Cleopatra VII (who I did my project on), Ptolemy XIII, Arsinoe, and Ptolemy XIV. Her father (Ptolemy XII A.K.A. Alutes, died when she was eighteen and she married her brother, Ptolemy XIII. The most interesting part for me was how she died. A servant smuggled in a basket of figs with an asp in the bottom and when no one but her closest maids were around, she lifted it to her bare breast and it bit her. She died several minutes later, as did her handmaidens, for they had been accidently bitten as well.

Comments On Jul 10, 2013:They have yet to correct a longstanding issue with these pegs. The left peg hits the kickstand spring mount when folded in about half way. So they "fit" , but you better hope you never fall to the left. Many reports of this on ADVrider about this dating back a long time. These do it just like the older versions. TECH NOTE: ON THIS MODEL BECAUSE OF THE POST ON THE FRAME THAT KICKSTAND SPRING CONNECTS TO THE LEFT PEG WILL NOT FOLD ALL THE WAY UP.

|TRON: Betrayal, TRON: Evolution, TRON: Legacy
Black Guards ("Elite Guards" in TRON: Evolution - Battle Grids) are the upgraded version of the original guard programs.
Black Guards are the commando elite of Clu's forces and also serve as his personal guard. They are a deadly force to be reckoned with, as they are prepared for any mission with their advanced fighting skills and their sheer numbers. After Rinzler, they are the most vicious programs on the Grid.
Black Guards have red-orange circuitry, and for head-gear they wear jet black helmets that cover the entirety of their faces.
Black Guards are well equipped for combat, regularly being in possession of Batons, Light Grenades, and Identity Discs. Their batons are stored on their arms and are used to expand their armament with various additional weapons such as a sword, or staff, and the two halves can also separate to form a pair of dual nightstick weapons. The grenades are kept within easy reach clamped to their thighs. Outside of the movie canon some Black Guards are also seen wielding a personal riot shield.
Black Guards commonly use Recognizers for transportation, and on occasion will air drop from these aircraft using dorsal TRON chutes attached to their backs. Many Black Guards can use their batons to provide personal transportation by generating Light Cycles, or Light Jets.

Amur-Heilong Biodiversity
Enormous Wetland Ecosystem Network
Rivers and lakes in the Amur-Heilong River Basin provide habitats for about 130 freshwater fish species, including seven species of migratory salmon and Kaluga – the largest sturgeon in the world that can weigh up to 1000 kilograms. At present, no dams block the river's main channel, which runs nearly 4,500 kilometres from Mongolia into the Tartar Strait of the Okhotsk Sea. The river floods its banks between 4 and 6 times during the summer, mostly during the monsoon season in July and August, when it swells to 10-25 kilometres in width in years of heavy rainfall. Wetlands on the plains of the Amur-Heilong River are globally significant for migration of tens of thousands of geese and hundreds of thousands of ducks and waders. Endangered species such as Far Eastern curlew (Numenius madagascarensis), Scaly-sided merganser (Mergus scquamatus), Swan goose (Anser cygnoides), Baikal teal (Anas formosa) and many others depend on these stop-over areas. Each spring and autumn, birds stop here to feed and rest along the East Asian migration routes between nesting areas in the north and wintering grounds in the Yangtze River valley in China and on the Korean Peninsula and the islands of Japan.
As much as 95 percent of the world's nesting population of Oriental white storks (Ciconia boyciana), is found in the Amur-Heilong floodplains, along with 65 percent of the Red-crowned crane (Grus japonensis), and 90 percent of the White-naped crane (Grus vipio) populations. This is the only place in the world where one can simultaneously observe 6 species of cranes on the same patch of wetland.
Tiger Forests
The Amur-Heilong contains some of the best preserved temperate forest ecosystems and still harbours about 500 Amur tigers and the last remaining viable wild population of Far Eastern leopard, estimated at less than 40 individuals. This mixed temperate forest ecosystem depends on the Korean Pine -"tree of life" producing food (pine nuts) and shelter: where there is Korean pine one also finds wild boar, which is the tiger's primary prey. Ginseng grows only under the canopy of Korean pine stands. The value of a living tree is ten times higher than its timber. Here Brown bears coexist with Asiatic black bears, Far Eastern leopard cross paths with lynx (Felix lynx). Korean pine-broadleaved forests are very often the only source of income for residents of remote villages.
Boundless Steppe
The western part of Amur Heilong -Dauria - is the best-preserved example of Eurasian grassland and this region continues to support huge populations of larger migratory vertebrates - Mongolian Gazelle (Procapra gutturosa). Wetland-grassland landscapes withstand periodic droughts common in this climate. Cyclical climate fluctuation causes greater biodiversity and triggers migrations of many animal species. The area is also an important breeding and stopover site for millions of birds on several Asian flyways. Dauria is the only part of the Amur River Basin where indigenous peoples can continue their nomadic lifestyle.

Radical History Review invites submissions of abstracts for a forthcoming thematic issue exploring the subject of religion and its historical relations to politics, culture and society. We especially encourage proposals for articles with interdisciplinary and transnational perspectives.
While most historians of pre- and early-modern societies have long accepted that religion and politics were inextricably intertwined, the western liberal commitment to secular modernity has generally relocated religion out of the public sphere and into the private, in order to domesticate, tame, and depoliticize religious faith. Consequently, faith and belief appeared inaccessible to systematic historical analysis. Yet, this version of a secular modernity was a form of western, post-Enlightenment myth-making. As Peter van der Veer has argued, religion has constantly erupted into the public and was never fully relegated to an a-political private sphere beyond the reach of historical explanation. Global events¯the political mobilization of religious fundamentalisms throughout the world; a U.S. foreign and domestic policy driven by what Ron Suskind has called a "faith-based presidency"; the changing religious demographics of a once predominately Catholic Latin America; lega!
The political vitality of religion has, of course, not only manifested itself in destructive ways. A radical history must also account for the ways that religious institutions, practices, discourses, and commitments have provided sources for powerful critiques of modernity, the nation-state, the market, slavery, European colonial rule, and racial supremacy. How can scholars with a commitment to diversity, inclusiveness, and progressive change make analytic sense of the complex historical conditions, meanings, practices, and legacies of religion? How might the study of the history of religion(s) across time and space suggest ways to reconceptualize modernity and pre/postmodernity, and to rethink received historical categories previously associated with the development of secular modernity, such as the public sphere, the private conscience, nationalism, colonialism, imperialism, and/or capitalism?
Radical History Review solicits article proposals from scholars across the disciplines, in fields including history, anthropology, religious studies, sociology, philosophy, political science, gender, and cultural studies. We encourage potential contributors to explore the following issues, among other possibilities:
• Religion and state violence
We also encourage submissions from scholars who teach religious history, for our special section, Teaching Radical History. In TRH pieces, scholars discuss their methodological, theoretical, and pedagogical frameworks, along with course syllabi and reflections on the class experience.

Bank M has declared a profit before taxes of 3.41bn/-, which is an increase of 234 percent over the corresponding quarter in the previous year and a growth of 13 per cent over the previous quarter.
The increase is considered remarkable in the background of rising inflation pressures, tight liquidity conditions and the resultant high interest rates in the local economy.
The bank's head of finance, Iman John attributed the achievement to customers' confidence that has enabled the bank to grow by an average of 60 per cent year-on-year since its inception five years ago.
"Such a landmark growth is unquestionably due to customers' confidence towards the financial and professional strengths, which is unmatched in this market," John told journalists at the weekend.
The head of finance attributed the doubling of pre-tax profit largely to 90 per cent growth in net interest income that climbed from 24.74bn/- in the first quarter of 2011 to 47.11bn/- in the current quarter of 2012.
Alongside the spurt in net income generated from loans, the non-interest income, from fees and commissions of the bank has also grown significantly to 27.24bn/- this year's first quarter against 13.6bn/- of previous year.
The financial controller added that the bank had a deposit base of 263.71bn/- as at March31, this year and a balance sheet size of 312.23bn/-, making it the 10th largest bank in the local market, from a group of 45 banks.
As on the reporting date, the bank's loan book had grown to 202.68bn/-. As per the financial controller, the sectoral exposure of the loan book is well diversified as a result of carefully prepared and meticulously executed loan management policies.
Careful client and sectoral selection has enabled the bank to withstand cyclical downturn and liquidity constraints without impairment of the loan book, which has remained steady with a non performing loan ratio of 2 per cent.
Godfery Utouh, Bank M's head of internal audit, said that prudent leading practices and tight post sanction controls ensured that the non-performing loans to stay down below 2 per cent, which is well below the industry average.
"First-rate internal control enables assets to grow by 44 per cent, while keeping the year on year non perforiming loan levels constant or reducing," he said.
The bank's head of corporate affairs, Ambrose Nshala talked about the continuing shareholder commitment to the growth of the bank by consistent injections of fresh capital, in order to take care of the growth potential of the bank.
Nshala added that during the previous year and the current quarter, the shareholders of the bank have pumped in 10.97bn/- as additional capital.
The head added that it is remarkable that the bank has not declared any dividends till date, despite significant Profits being generated after payment of taxes, which is further indicative of the shareholder's commitment to the health and well being of the bank.
Apart from the bank making great achievements in the growth in balance sheet and business as well as profitability, it has also made significant progress in achieving its stated policy of gender parity in employment by end of year 2012.
The bank's head of transaction banking, Jacqueline Woiso mentioned that it is a matter of pride for her and all the other women employees of the bank that the female employees' ratio currently stands at 51 per cent against 49 per cent of male.
"We expect the ratio to remain in favour of women," Woiso said, adding that "the bank's commitment to gender parity is not restricted to the hiring of lower level female tellers but is also reflected in the top management team of the bank."

WASHINGTON, D.C. (WUSA)-- With snow fall expected in the Washington area now is a good time to issue a friendly reminder of the dangers you may come across. Luckily, we've narrowed it down to 3 tips that will keep you and your family safe while driving on ice covered roads.
John Townsend from the AAA said , "Most people who are injured in snow storms are injured when their car flies off the road or skids off the road."
Based on Townsend's comment we spoke to Mar Roble a tire expert who said the first thing drivers need to be aware of is the tire tread. If the tire's are bald have little tread you can expect to slip and slide.
Roble said drivers should be "looking at how much depth there is on the tire." He added, "you don't want to be driving around in the snow on tires that have no life expectancies."
The second tip according to Roble is to make sure the tires are properly inflated. He advises always following the tire pressure recommendation that listed on the inside frame of most drivers side doors.
Lastly, Roble said always make sure the tires on your car are the proper ones for the season. In other words summer tires won't work well during the winter. He suggests having all season tires on at all times.

I've met often with the concept, that rotten meat and carcass is inedible because of bacteria and toxins. The most harmful of it the botulinum toxin.
However, in the question Can any waterborne pathogens survive boiling? a link was mentioned to article Bacterial Food Poisoning in which it is written that:
The botulinum toxin is destroyed by boiling the food for 10 minutes.
The pathogens mentioned there also are destroyed by high temperature, so, at least theoretically, it should be safe to eat rotten meat, as long as it is cooked or baked long enough, so that the high temperature penetrate it fully and we let it work for at least 10 minutes.
So, meat baked in fire for about a hour or two, should be safe. Is my conclusion correct?

Before a summon can be performed, a prospective summoner must first sign a contract with a given species.[3] The contract can come in the form of a scroll or a tattoo. The summoner then signs the contract in their own blood. After this, they need only perform the hand seals, offer an additional donation of blood, and use the same hand they signed the contract with to summon the creature.[4] The amount of chakra used during the summoning determines how big the summoned creature can be. It should be noted that anyone can summon the animal as long as they have the blood from someone who has made a contract, along with sufficient chakra of their own.[5]
Animals have uses outside of conflict as well, such as being able to smell or sense chakra. [6] [7] They can also be used, if they are large enough, to transport the summoner away [8]
While most summoners have only been shown capable of summoning one type of creature, Pain has been seen summoning several different animals and even people. Pain does not provide a blood offering when performing a summon. Sasuke Uchiha has summoned snakes and hawks at different points, but unlike Pain he can apparently only summon one species at a time.
When an animal is summoned it is transported from its place of residence to the summoner's location. Once summoned, the animal can perform a task or help the user in battle. The summon is not required to help the user, and may be more of a hindrance than an ally. In addition, summons are able to summon their summoner. They may also wear a forehead protector, suggesting a loyalty to only one village.
Some summoned animals have demonstrated the ability for chakra control as well.[9] [10]
Summoning can serve as a base for other jutsu, as is the case with Summoning: Food Cart Destroyer Technique and Summoning: Quick Beheading Dance. In these cases, summonings may not be restricted to creatures, as Orochimaru shows by summoning corpses and defenses. Items can also be "summoned" from scrolls. Because the items are not summoned from anywhere, instead only being released from storage, no blood is needed and thus it is not a conventional summoning. If a user attempts to summon an animal without first signing a contract, the user will be teleported to the home of the animal they have a natural affinity for.[11]
