- Why choose a single or double cell?
Cellular shades are best known for their energy-saving properties but also offer a wide array of customizable options. Cellular shades get their name and insulating power from their honeycomb shape that traps air between the window and the room, buffering against heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer. Double cell shades offer maximum insulation. Light filtering or blackout fabrics provide privacy and light control choices in a wide array of colors, textures and even patterns. Customize your honeycomb shade with convenient lift options including cordless, top down-bottom up, and motorized remote control.

customer reviews for cellular honeycomb
"Pleasantly surprised"
By 1st time buyer from New Jersey
I love my new blinds! They blackout light well and also reduce draft from my windows. When I am able, I will most likely purchase more for other windows in my home. The installation is not as easy as I expected, however, or perhaps my measuring wasn't as accurate as it should have been. Two of the blinds were a very tight fit into my window frame and the adhesives came off during installation. Fortunately, the inner mounting device is quite strong and is adequate form holding the frame in place.View this product
"Pricey but worth it"
By DocMahogany from Brooklyn, NY
My windows swing open inwards so traditional blinds weren't an option as window always hit the blinds. These were ridiculously easy to install and fit my window pane like a glove. I have had the best sleep in months and I have been able to enjoy watching my movies during the daytime because the shades definitely block out the light.View this product

With luck, the fist will slide in, and be rapidly retracted, causing the receiving partner to gape.

An excellent article. I just wish the SG would reprint an edition of the July article where many of the potential problems were brought to the attention of the public at that time.
I do not care one way or the other about hockey, but this was a terrible business decision by a mayor with an obsession with bringing a hockey team to this city regardless of the cost.
The city now faces liabilities for a decision made without due diligence. I do believe he should be made to be personally responsible for the costs we, as taxpayers, are about to assume, but he is surely passing the buck.
As the article pointed out, the writing was on the wall . . . poor planning based on the ground record of the franchisor, the outdoor site, the weather, three days to sign the contract, no bond in place for the reconstruction of Bowman Field, and the demographics showing potential low attendance.
But, with this mayor's vision, it was "all for the children." You could have hired another polic

What an ABSOLUTE JOKE of an article. DOES ANYONE AT THE GAZETTE KNOW WHAT PROFESSIONAL JOURNALISM IS? How was this article not posted under the Opinion section because it seems blatantly obvious that's what it is. Get your facts straight about even just a few of these things and you might be considered a respectable news source. Can't even keep track of all the incorrect information in the article.

Francine, Don Kirnan made the "non-profit" in his name to protect himself and the FHL against any liability. He won't be paying a cent. Yes the FHL owns the non-profit, they are the only ones that probably made any money off the team being here as they got money from concessions and rink rentals. I really hope the authorities (City,State and Federal) take a deep look into the Kirnan scam, I bet the IRS could have a field day with them. The FHL thinks they are clean from this deal, I just hope the mayor has what it takes to clean his name by doing the proper thing and exposing the FHL for what it did to our Community. Hockey can survive here with the proper organization and a place to play, but not with the FHL, they probably won't exist when this is all said and done.

A minor adjustment to Orchard Park Central School District's eligibility policy for participating in extracurricular activities prompted a School Board member to call for strengthening the policy Tuesday night.
The policy does not have a minimum grade-point average or class average that students must achieve, but instead relies on teachers to monitor whether a student is showing "less than acceptable academic performance."
If that's the case, and if the teacher is thinking of holding the student academically ineligible, a warning must be given to the student and his or her parents one week before any action is taken. The teacher also must talk with the adviser or coach.
"The student should be made to realize the consequences to self, team or club for not meeting classroom performance standards," the policy states. "The expectation will be that significant improvement in performance will be demonstrated immediately by the student."
Board member Sean Wittmann is looking for something stronger.
"I wanted it to be more specific, and a specific cutoff, I think, is important," he said after Tuesday's board meeting.
Wittmann voted against the minor change in the policy, which would have the athletic director draw up a list of athletes and the sports they participate in, rather than the coaches, and distribute it to teachers.
"In theory, a teacher would have to look at several different rosters during a sports season," said Lisa Krueger, assistant superintendent for curriculum. "Now, they'll reference one roster and can more easily determine if a student is participating in a sport."
But the district does not have a similar uniform system for keeping track of students in clubs and other activities.
"They accept students into the clubs and activity throughout the year. That's certainly something that's more challenging," Krueger said.
The board's Curriculum and Policy Committee discussed the policy and recommended the change to a single roster to help improve communication.
Wittmann said he understands that the policy leaves room to address academic performance for a high performing student who may drop his average from 95 to 80.
"That's an issue," he said, but he added, "I don't think that creating a policy without a minimum standard is extremely useful."
He said he is curious how many students put sports before their academics.
Krueger said not many students have been pulled out of a sport or club because they were ineligible academically.
"Often with that first notification, with that warning, that's enough to change the student's behavior," she said.
Board Vice President Natalie Schaffer said the board plans to have the athletic director report later in the school year on how the policy is working.
"We are going to be following up," she said.

Ron Rolston is a passionate believer that leaders emerge through actions, not words, roles or perceived pecking order.
"The first thing if you're going to be a leader, you have to be capable and consistent every single night," the Buffalo Sabres' coach said. "Until you do that, you can't be a leader. To me, you can't play one game good, one game bad, one period good, one period bad.
"That's like Level One. That's like the basement of leadership. You've got to show up every day. You've got to be capable. You've got to be consistent. Then you build a base where guys are looking to you and you're setting an example.
"We still have guys that have to get there to be leaders."
The Sabres, who were defined by inconsistency, had a leadership void this season. However, a few players of influence emerged thanks to steady performances. Defenseman Mike Weber was one of them.
"Mike Weber is one of those players that made a real big jump this year in terms of what he meant to our hockey team, how he plays the game, just the potential that he has to continue to grow on this team," Rolston said. "It put a player like Mike in more of a leadership role because of what he did and because of the minutes that he had. He was in the lineup every night blocking shots, sacrificing for his teammates.
"He's put himself in a situation where he can be one of those guys that are in the room and holding guys accountable."
The 25-year-old Weber wants Sabreland to become a place where accountability and determination are everyday occurrences.
"Everyone personally and as a team, we need to go in a different direction here and change the culture here," Weber said. "Guys need to be held accountable. I think a lot of that's been lost over the last couple of years.
"We've got to find a way as a team to boost each other up and power through some struggles. That's been our biggest downfall. We get lost in these ruts. I've said it before, like quicksand. We get lost in this quicksand and it sucks us in. We don't have enough fight to fight out of it. I think that's the culture that I'm speaking of. We need to find that battle, that intensity to get ourselves out of it."
Weber, who started the season as a healthy scratch, fought his way into the lineup. He played 42 of the 48 games and was voted "Unsung Hero" by his teammates.
"It's a huge honor," he said. "Obviously, something that's voted by your peers is pretty special. I just try to show up and be consistent and battle for them every night. As an individual, I'm a terrible player. As a team, everyone on this team makes me better and makes me look a lot better than I am."
While Weber likely will never shine offensively (he had a goal and six assists), he's far from terrible. His 92 blocked shots, ranked 24th in the NHL. He was second on the Sabres in hits (122) and was one of only nine regulars to finish with a positive plus/minus rating at plus-3.
"Finally, my maturity is there," said the sixth-year pro. "It might have a taken a little bit longer, but finally just learning to be consistently solid. I've always been confident in myself, but it's finally just getting the trust from the coaching staff and obviously from my peers that I can go and do a job and do it on a consistent basis and just stick with it.
"The maturity thing is just letting stuff come to me, not getting too anxious and trying to go and make the big hit, just letting stuff come to me and just taking care of my own zone. That's just what I could take from this year and moving forward try to use that maturity to help lead the way here in the future."
Weber became a veteran on the back end after the Sabres traded Jordan Leopold and Robyn Regehr. He hopes to help train youngsters such as Mark Pysyk, Chad Ruhwedel and Brayden McNabb.
"I want to be a big part of this organization for years to come," Weber said. "I know we're a lot closer than it looks. There's a lot of great, young players that are up here. We've got great veteran guys, and we're going to be looking to improve in the offseason to make ourselves better. I just want to do my part in leading the ways that I can."

As on of Canada's and the world's most respected public works officials for more than 50 years, Albert Berry gave outstanding service and leadership in the fields of water supply, sanitation, pollution control, water resources, and conservation. Within these fields, Berry was known as the "Mr. Water." His work began as a time when Ontario lacked a formal organization responsible for water supply and sanitation. Interview Number 8, September 1988, interviewed by Norman Ball.
As engineer, editor, administrator, and educator, Edward Cleary was a major force in the field of public works for nearly a half century. He covered the important developments and people responsible for them while an editor of Engineering News-Record (1935-1949). He conducted a massive and successful effort to control industrial pollution in the Ohio River Valley during his term as chief administrator of ORSANCO (1949-1967), the largest water pollution control program ever attempted in its time. Interview Number 4, December 1983, interviewed by Michael C. Robinson.
From the design and construction of Anderson Ranch, Trenton, and 30 other dams, to the preliminary work on the Aswan, and key roles on the St. Lawrence Seaway and the Interstate Highway Program, Ellis Armstrong participated in many of the great public works enterprises in recent history. Among the many positions he has held over the course of his long career are: director of highways for Utah, commissioner of the Bureau of Public Roads, commissioner of the Bureau of Reclamation, and president of the Better Highways Information Foundation. Interview Number 7, April 1987, interviewed by Michael Robinson.
Jean Vincenz was commissioner of public works, city engineer, and manager of utilities in fast growing Fresno, California for nearly 10 years before World War II. The Depression was an especially challenging time for public works officials, and Vincenz made a lasting contribution to modern Fresno during these years. The 1930's were especially formative in the creation of the city's public facilities and the beginning of service systems that continue to serve Fresno well. Vincenz was an important figure in the development of Fresno's public water supply, sewage, transportation, solid waste facilities, and public buildings. Vincenz also served as director of the San Diego County Public Works Department and as president of APWA in 1960. Interview Number 1, September 1980, interviewed by Robert D. Bugher and Suellen M. Hoy.
Jennings Randolph had a congressional career that spanned fifty-two years (1933-1985). For eighteen years as the chairman and then ranking Democratic member of the Senate Public Works Committee, and its successor, the Environment and Public Works Committee, the senior senator from West Virginia presided over a broad program of construction for highways, bridges, dams, and public buildings. Interview Number 6, January 1985, interviewed by Robert D. Bugher, Charles Byrley, and Howard Rosen.
Roy Morse has been a force in industry, government, and public works in the later half of the twentieth century. Before and during World War II, he was Administrative Engineer for Boeing Company at a time when the engineering department grew from 300 to over 3,000. After the war, served the City Seattle as Superintendent of Water (1949-1955), and later as City Engineer and Chairman of the Board of Public Works (1957-1971). Morse played an important role in the expansion of public works services in post-World War II and the World's Fair era. From 1955-1957, Morse was the Director of Technical Staff of the Secretary of the Interior, where he helped prepare the National Water Resources Policy Act of 1955. Interview Number 10, February 1994, interviewed by Howard Rosen and Jan Klippert.
Samuel Baxter was truly a public works 'man for all seasons' that, in the conduct of his professional and personal life, served as a paradigm for other engineer-administrators. Over the course of a 49-year career, Baxter worked his way up the ranks in Philadelphia public works from a surveyor to chief engineer of the Department of Public Works and commissioner and chief engineer of the Philadelphia Water Department. He was on of the last of a breed in the engineering field that rose to high position without having earned a college degree. Baxter was always active in numerous professional organizations and served as president of three --APWA (1947), American Water Works Association (1966), and American Society of Civil Engineers (1971). Interview Number 3, May 1982, interviewed by Robert D. Bugher and Michael C. Robinson.
Consulting engineers play a critical role in the provision of public works in the United States and Canada. Samuel Greeley was a founder of the firm Greeley and Hansen and an internationally acclaimed public works engineer who spent over a half a century developing water, sewer, and refuge systems for cities such as New York, Chicago, Boston, Las Angeles, Buffalo, and Washington DC. Greeley was also the author of the first comprehensive text on the collection and disposal of municipal refuge. Greeley served as president of the American Society of Municipal Engineers (a predecessor of APWA) and was an honorary member of APWA, as well as the American Society of Civil Engineers. Interview Number 2, June 1981, interviewed by Neal Fitz Simons.
As a major figure in Canadian public works, William Hurst has played a role in virtually every aspect of public works engineering and administration in Winnipeg. As engineer of waterworks, he helped design and construct pumping stations and a sewage treatment plant. From 1944 to 1971, he was Winnipeg's city engineer and commissioner of buildings. It was during this period that Hurst was faced with one of the greatest challenges in his career: the Red River floods of 1950. Hurst also served as president of both APWA (1958) and American Water Works Association (1963). Interview Number 5, May 1984, interviewed by Howard Rosen.

The basic question of public or private control of essential industries is explored in this essay. Ness examines the development of the Niagara Power Project as an example of the interplay between economics and politics. Among the topics that he explores is the conflict between federal and state development of New York's rivers, the establishment of the New York Power Authority in 1931, and the construction of the Niagara Power Project. Essay Number 7, David L. Nass, February 1979.
There are few issues as contentious as privatization in public works. This historical perspective provides an understanding of how public-private partnerships have worked in the past, when certain solutions were attractive, and what problems remained unsolved. David Beito shows that privatization is a historical solution to public works problems in St. Louis where private street associations provided a wide range of services and facilities to their members between 1869 and 1920. Charles Jacobson explores why contracting for water needed for fire protection proved disastrous, while contracting for electric street lighting was quite successful, in municipalities across the country. Ann Keating identifies the historical materials already available, as well as areas in which more research would aid current discussions on the construction, ownership, and operation of public works facilities. Essay Number 16, David Beito with Bruce Smith, Charles D. Jacobson, and Ann D. Keating, December 1989.

Essay Number 17, Emory Kemp, December 1990
This essay is of interest to students of engineering history, as well as engineers and public works administrators.

The music involves a three-part instrumental ensemble (prelude, overture, interlude), a choir of girls from Esther's retinue, solos and vocal ensembles. This edition displays for the first time the declaimed text, preserved in old spelling, and the entire music drawn up from sources contemporary with the creation of the work.

Sierra Stages has announced open auditions for its summer production of Broadway's Best Musical of 2004, "Avenue Q." The show plays from July 10 through Aug. 3 at the Nevada Theatre in Nevada City and is directed by Robert Rossman. Puppet consultation is by Ken Miele, and musical direction is by Ken Getz, who will also conduct the orchestra.
Winner of the Tony Award "Triple Crown" for Best Musical, Best Score and Best Book, "Avenue Q" is part flesh (humans), part felt (puppets) and packed with heart (universal). "Avenue Q" tells the timeless story of a recent college grad named Princeton who moves into a shabby New York apartment all the way out on Avenue Q. There, he meets the girl next door, a Republican, an Internet sexpert and Gary Coleman (need we say more?), along with other colorful types who help Princeton finally discover his purpose in life. Be warned that "Avenue Q" contains adult language and puppet nudity. It is not for the kids (and some adults), but your teenagers may think you're cool if you take them!
There are two opportunities to audition: Jan. 10 from 6 to 9 p.m. and Jan. 12 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Auditions on both dates are at the Off Center Stage, 315 Richardson St., Grass Valley. All roles other than Christmas Eve are open.

Recent Event Highlights: President Kennedy assinated, Berlin Wall Built, Khrushchev demands NATO withdrawl of troops from Berlin, Hungarian rebelllion put down by Soviets, Communists under Mao Zedong take control of China, Communists take over Czechoslovakia, and 17 more...
Created by SrEmm on Apr 18, 2011
Last updated: 04/20/11 at 04:13 PM
A year after the Cuban missile crisis, President Kennedy was shot by Lee Harvey Oswald while driving in a motorcade through Dealey Plaza. Kennedy was shot once in the back, and the back of the head which killed him. The assassination was shocking, however it got the public interest of the cold war. With a new president came a new time.
After opperations like the bay of pigs invasion failed, Cuba, who was supported by the Soviet Union, began building missile bases. Tensions rose more than ever, and the U.S. seriously feared nuclear conflict.Kennedy ordered to "quarantine" Cuba, and to get them to disarm. Eventually the soviets backed down, and no missiles were launched. The threat of mutually assured destruction had prevented the nations from launching.
The Berlin wall was built, dividing East and West Germany, in 1961. However, the Berlin had been divided since the beginning of the cold war. The wall was a physical symbol of the tense relationship between Russia and the U.S. the wall itself was a line of miss-communication. It truly was an iron curtain.
In 1960, President Eisenhower told the CIA to begin training to oppose Castro's rule in Cuba.The invasion didn't go as planned, and when the American troops landed on April 19, 1961, they only made it a little way inland because we were met by the surprisingly strong Cuban force. 1500 troops landed on the coast. Over 100 of them were killed and hundreds were captured.
The election between Kennedy and Nixon had been very close. In fact it was the closest presidential election since 1916. Kennedy was good looking and charismatic, which is just what the Americans needed at the time. There was a lot going on during this time,and if America didn't have a leader who was confident in ways, things would have been bad. Kennedy knew how to tell the public what they needed to know with out them becoming too scared.
The U.S., durring the Cold War flew numerous successfull spy missions across the USSR, however on may 1, 1960, one mission went wrong. A U-2 spy plane piloted by Francis Gary Powers, was shot down. This angered both the U.S.and Russians; it had a negative impact on their relations.
Castro came to power in January of 1959 as a result of the Cuban Revolution. The Cuban Revolution overthrew the dictatorship of Batista, which the U.S. supported. The U.S. used to have a lot of influence in Cuba, before Castro took it over. When he did this the U.S. lost a lot of control in South America, and they feared that communism would spread even more. "Until Castro, the U.S. was so overwhelmingly influential in Cuba that the American ambassador was the second most important man, sometimes even more important than the Cuban president." Earl T. Smith, former American Ambassador to Cuba, during 1960 testimony to the U.S. Senate
The Russians were tired of West Berlin, and demanded NATO to withdraw troops from the area, and let the Soviets control all of Berlin. NATO refussed to give up West Berlin and tensions rose. This heated the relationship between them even more. The U.S feared a Soviet attack of West Berlin.
On October 4, The Soviets launched a steel ball containing a small transmiter into Earth's orbit. It was called "sputnik 1". This was just another thing that the Russians, and the Americans were fighting for, and it was a symbol of the competitveness of the two countries to be the biggest world power.
In 1956, Hungarian rebels wanted to change its current government, and seperate from the Soviet Union. The Soviets were angered by Hungary unstable population, so they sent military there to enforce the communist government and shut down rebel threats.
The Soviet Union, and its satalitte states, formed a rival militay allience. This was called the Warsaw Pact, and it was against the nations belonging to NATO. The Warsaw Pact pledged mutal military assistance. It was just like NATO, but for the other side.
In 1954 Vietnam was divided into North and South Vietnam. Norht Vietnam was communist, and South Vetnam was anti-communist. The U.S. was worried, again, of more communist expansion. They decided to send advisors to South Vietnam in order to help unify North and South Vietnam as an anti-communist nation. This eventually led to the Vietnam war.
Julius and Ethel Rosenberg were tried, convicted, executed of passing confidential information to the Soviet Union. It was believed that they gave secrets about the atomic bomb, and U.S. plans. This is an important part of U.S. history because it was the first time that civillians had been executed for espionage in United States history
North Korea invaded South Korea, and was pushing to make it a communist nation. South Korea resisted, but they were pushed out of their capital. They needed help, so they U.S. decided to intervene. They wanted to prevent another communist nation from rising.With the help of NATO forces, they pushsed the North Koreans back into their territory. China was worried about a possible invasion by the allies, so they decided to enter the Korean war. The war reached a stalemate, finally ended in 1955. This was a hot point in the Cold War, which prevented South Korean communism.
Senator McCarthy, of Wisconsin, believed that there were people who were members of the American communist party. He also believed that they were leaking secret informaion to the Soviet Union. He tried to stop them by putting together a list of names of the people he knew had been involved in the communist party. The witch hunts began for the suspects. This gave fear to the Americans of an internal communist takeover. This is another example of constitoutional rights being put on hold in the time of war. The people had the right to attend the Communist meetings.
Nationalists and Communists in China were fighting for contol of the Chinese government. The Soviets supported Mao Zedong, leader of the communists, and the U.S. supported Jiang Jieshi, Leader of the national party. By 1949 Mao had more support in China, and he won over the Chinese government. This showed that communism was spreading quickly. The communist take over in China led to the U.S. stratgey of containment. By 1950 Communists controlled 1/4 of the world's land mass, and 1/3 of the world's population.
Soviets developing the A-bomb cahnged the war. The fear of an atomic bomb dropping was now on both sides. Also, becasue the sovietes had the bomb, the U.S's and the Russians were on a more equal playing field.
NATO provided a military alliance to counter soviet expansion.. " If you attack one of us, you are attacking all of us." 12 western european nations and north american nations agreed to help the nations of western Europe.
After WWII Czechoslovakia tried to become a democratic nation, but in early 1948 communist movements threatened to take control of the country. The Soviets were behind the communist movements, and the current goverment was forced into communism/ soviet control.
Theeuropean nations were struggling with economic problems after the war. The Marshall Plan, created by the U.S., gave 13 billion dollars in grants and loans to nations in western Europe. This was a step towards the U.S. intervening in the world affairs durring the Cold War.
Greece and Turkey were srtuggling with communist movements supported by the Soviets. The only country theat could help hold back the communist movement was the U.S. Truman and congress voted give 400 milloin dollars in financial aid. However, Truman wanted to refrain from sending troops. This was part of the Truman doctrine, which stated that the president would promise to aid nations struggling against communist movements and influence.
Churchill visits Westminster College in Missouri. Churchill annonunces to the U.S. and the world that Russia was a world treat. They had spread communism, and had taken control of Eastern Europe. Russia was offended by the speech. They felt threatened by the U.S. and Britian
The U.S. drops the controversial Atomic Bomb on Japan in order to end the war quickly, with as little American soldier casulties as possible. No other country had used the bomb before, so this made other countreis both fear and respect the U.S. By the end of WWII the U.S. was the number one world power.
The British, Russian, and U.S. met to discuss the situation in Europe. At this meeting it was decided that Germanay would be divided into different zones.This was an important meeting because it informed the Britishand the U.S. of the Russian threat in Eastern Europe.

Epigenetics, which scientists define as heritable changes in gene expression that do not involve alterations in the DNA sequence, is drawing the increasing attention of investigators all around the globe. In addition to its role in helping researchers better understand organismal development, epigenetics has emerged as an important facet of disease pathogenesis.
The creation of new experimental strategies represents a fundamental component of the efforts to gain deeper insights into the epigenetic modulation of gene expression. For example, at Keystone Symposia's "Epigenomics" conference last month, Peter A. Jones, Ph.D., distinguished professor of urology and biochemistry at the University of Southern California, talked about a new method that investigators in his lab developed to simultaneously map the presence of nucleosomes and DNA methylation on individual DNA molecules.
"The idea is that we place a chemical marker on the DNA molecule, which allows us to determine which DNA areas are open and which ones are wrapped around nucleosomes, and we can relate this to DNA methylation," explained Dr. Jones.
For the past 30 years, nucleosomes were mapped by limited digestion with DNA-cleaving enzymes such as DNAse I or micrococcal nuclease, and the location of DNA methylation sites was revealed by parallel experiments.
The nucleosome occupancy methylome-sequencing, or NOMe-seq, single-molecule high-resolution nucleosome positioning assay that Dr. Jones and colleagues developed is based on the accessibility of the DNA to the M.CviPI GpC methyltransferase that recognizes GpC dinucleotides not associated with nucleosomes or transcription factors.
This technique allows the simultaneous visualization, within the same DNA molecule, of the endogenous DNA methylation and nucleosome occupancy distribution, irrespective of the density or methylation status of CpG sites.
When used to examine the well-characterized enhancer/promoter pair of the MYOD1 gene in somatic cells, the NOMe-seq method revealed that a nucleosome-depleted region exists at enhancers in opposing transcriptional states, and Dr. Jones and collaborators showed that this architecture may be associated both with active and repressed promoter states.
The presence of epigenetic marks correlated with both activation and repression mirrors previous findings from embryonic stem cells, where similar bivalent marks were characterized and are thought to keep genes poised for induction. The presence of permissive enhancers associated with certain promoters that are repressed by the polycomb-repressive complex allows these loci to retain their permissiveness and ensures epigenetic plasticity during reprogramming in somatic cells.
Dr. Jones and colleagues previously revealed that DNA methylation acts as a lock to silence transcriptionally inactive chromosomal domains.
The scientists showed that three nucleosomes, which in normal cells are almost completely absent from the start sites on MLH1, a gene implicated in colorectal and breast cancer, exist in methylated and in silenced promoters, suggesting that the stable placement of nucleosomes into previously vacant positions could provide a mechanism for epigenetic silencing.
"The way this works is that the nucleosome is a substrate for de novo DNA methylation, and in order for genes to become silenced, the first thing that happens is that the nucleosome is placed into the region, followed by de novo DNA methylation," noted Dr. Jones.
"The epigenetic variation between people is much higher than the genetic variation and thus may happen in many locations and carry larger effect-size on diseases than genetic variation," said Asaf Hellman, Ph.D., group leader in developmental biology and cancer research at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem-Hadassah Medical School.
Dr. Hellman talked about a novel approach that investigators in his lab, together with collaborators, used to unveil a new type of inter-individual DNA methylation variation that provides an independent source of human diversity.
The involvement of genetic variants in type 2 diabetes mellitus has been known for several years. For the first time, Dr. Hellman and colleagues demonstrated that epigenetic factors shape the risk to develop this condition, a finding that has significant therapeutic implications for this and several other diseases.
In their analysis, which included not only CpG sites from promoters, but also nonpromoter methylation sites, which were recently shown to also shape gene expression, Dr. Hellman and colleagues mapped DNA methylation variations, as opposed to only DNA sequence variation, and characterized a methylation signature that shapes the risk to develop type 2 diabetes.
The stepwise approach involved, in the first stage, a microarray-based assay to examine DNA methylation levels in DNA pools obtained from individuals with diabetes and control participants. The identification and characterization of differentially methylated regions across the genome was followed by deep sequencing to examine the case-control association, and individual-level analyses subsequently helped explore the link between DNA methylation and disease.
An important aspect, when describing epigenetic modifications associated with disease, is to differentiate primary epigenetic changes from changes that occur secondarily during disease progression.
"Secondary events may be due to factors related to disease, such as genetic variation, which can be associated with altered methylation states, and we do know that many genetic sequences have some effects on the methylation of nearby sites," continued Dr. Hellman.
In a more detailed analysis of neighboring genetic and epigenetic polymorphisms within the first intron of the FTO gene, previously linked to type 2 diabetes, Dr. Hellman and colleagues demonstrated that methylation at this site is not secondary to genetic variations, but occurs through an independent mechanism. Therefore, it is indicative of an independent epigenetic mechanism that may provide a better prediction of disease risk, independently or synergistically with known risk factors.
"Our study opens the way for evaluating the contribution of epigenetic polymorphism in predisposition for a long list of common human diseases," said Dr. Hellman.

When to use OWSM? - 11g
By Prakash Yamuna-Oracle on Oct 11, 2011
I came across this interesting blog post from Gaurav Sharma that describes why he was initially skeptical of using OWSM to secure web services that are hosted in the intranet and what changed his mind.
What were the things that I found interesting?
- Gaurav focuses mainly on securing the message in transit
- His main concern even when discussing about securing messages when they are in transit is focused on apps handling sensitive information like financial information.
- If you are really a security fanatic - you will pick up on a third interesting tidbit - related to #2 - is that his main concern is around ensuring components outside the intranet are not in a position to access the sensitive information.
- Discussion about the performance implications
I think there is a broader list of security aspects that you need to consider - many of these were discussed a long time back in an article I co-authored and is available here. I have re-enumerted them here for convenience.
- Authentication (AuthN for short)
- Authorization (AuthZ for short)
- Spoofing
- Tampering
- Repudiation
- Information Disclosure
- Denial of Service
- Replay attacks
- Virus attacks and Intrusion Detection
The list of security issues is pretty comprehensive for the most part - but I will elaborate on two - Authentication, Authorization here:
If you need AuthN - there are some additional considerations that need to be considered in this space:
- Does your Web Service need to support Identity propagation?.
- Does your Web Service need to support Brokered AuthN?
- Does your Web Service need to support Federated Identity scenarios?
If you need AuthZ - there are few additional considerations as it relates to AuthZ:
- Does your Web Service need to support Role based AuthZ?
- Does your Web Service need to support Permission based AuthZ?
- Does your Web Service need to support Fine grained AuthZ?
- Does your Web Service need to support Context aware AuthZ and in general Context-aware Security? (Here is an article on the need for Context aware security)
not all of these security aspects are not necessarily relevant; if you have web services that are exposed in the intranet or these are departmental web services.
However you do need to consider the surface area of exposure for your web services - especially with what is being termed as the "Consumerization of IT" and the security challenges this presents.
Even assuming your departmental web services are do no have a large exposure and are accessible only via the corporate intranet - they typically require authentication and authorization. In addition auditing is also typically required to address compliance needs mandated by various regulatory requirements.
It is worth noting that OWSM does not necessarily address all the security issues - especially relating to Virus attacks, Throttling of requests, Intrusion Detection, etc.
Oracle's SOA Security Strategy is shown in the below embedded picture.
Here is a link to this image. Hopefully this post helps people in considering the various security challenges and how the different Oracle products address these security challenges.

Policy Statement
Wittenberg University, as a church-related school in partnership with the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, supports and defends the church's position that discrimination in any form is destructive to God's gift of personhood. In the Christian perspective, the ill should be aided with compassion. No communicable disease should be used as a reason to judge or dehumanize the person afflicted. Wittenberg recognizes the tension between the rights of the afflicted individual and the safety of all members of the campus community. It strives to balance the concern for well-being of the total community and the rights of the individual in making policy decisions.
Wittenberg University has a commitment to treat all faculty, students, and staff fairly and openly. This policy represents the intention to inform all people of the Wittenberg community about the risk of exposure to communicable diseases. This policy also represents a commitment to strive to preserve and protect the confidentiality of faculty, staff, or students who have developed a communicable disease. The University protects those affected from discriminatory or imposed isolation from the community if possible. Wittenberg assumes that informed community members take necessary steps to protect themselves from infection. This policy applies to contagious (measles, mumps, chicken pox) and infectious (AIDS, STDs, hepatitis) diseases.
I. Education
The major focus for protection from disease is to educate all personnel and students. Education efforts may include alert messages, informational brochures, invited speakers, films, and class discussion. Students are informed of methods to avoid contracting the disease and are encouraged to take responsibility for their actions.
When a communicable disease approaches epidemic proportions or is judged to be a threat to the University community, Wittenberg initiates a program of education on that disease. Information alerts both students and staff to incidence rates of the disease, methods of transmission, known methods of prevention and/or cure, and the employment of universal precautions.
II. Administrative Response
When a disease is identified by the University Physician to be a threat to the community, Health and Counseling Center reviews all of its procedures for education on prevention and treatment of the disease. The University Physician notify the Dean of Students and Director of Human Resources of the dimensions of the disease and of any recommended changes in the University procedures pursuant to managing the disease. The administration may at any time request the University Physician for an opinion on the danger of a disease and recommendations for containment. Students are informed of incidence rates on the college campus but are not told whether a given individual carries the disease.
Reasonable accommodation is made on a case by case basis by the Director of Human Resources or the Dean of Students in consultation with health officials.
All contract services are expected to adhere to the policy and guidelines established on communicable diseases by Wittenberg University.
All applicable federal, state, and local laws apply, and recommendations of the Center for Disease Control are followed.
The Dean of Students is charged to appoint a Communicable Disease Team which meets when necessary to ascertain the seriousness of a communicable disease outbreak and to recommend to the President the necessary appropriate action to be taken.
III. Confidentiality

Factory Second Ultimate Cold Frame
This item is currently not available.
Additional Information
Cold Frame Extends the Growing Season
Note: We are offering this cold frame at a reduced price because it did not pass our quality inspection. Due to a manufacturing error, the ties that are intended to hold the rolled-up doors and vents were improperly attached. Therefore, there is no way to secure the rolled-up greenhouse cover panels to allow ventilation. This defect will not affect the functionality of the unit as a season-extending cold frame to protect plants against chilly temperatures; however, because the vents won't stay rolled up, you'll need to remove the entire cold frame in warm weather. No grommets for stakes. To secure cold frame to the ground, you must push stakes through fabric. Sold as is.
- Start gardening earlier and extend the harvest in fall
- Woven poly cover has roll-up vents and insect netting
- Factory second; no ties to hold roll-up doors and vents; no grommets for stakes
Nurture plants in a warm, stable environment during wet and windy spring weather. Start seeds earlier, harden off indoor-growing seedlings, and extend the growing season into fall, too. This cold frame is a generous 71" L x 56" W with a peaked 36" roof that gives plants plenty of headroom. There's a large access door with two-way zipper on each side, and a roll-up vent at each end for good air circulation. Rustproof powder-coated steel frame and polyethylene cover. Insect netting covers doors and vents. Includes anchoring stakes. Raised bed not included.

|Reversing the Circulation of Magnetic Vortices
In magnetic media, information is stored in binary form—one or zero, depending on which way the electronic spins are aligned in a given section of the medium. Recently, however, magnetic vortices have drawn scientists toward a new possibility: multibit storage in which each logic unit has four states instead of two and can store twice the information. Each tiny magnetic whirl has a polarity that can point up or down and a circulation that can be oriented clockwise or counterclockwise. Previous studies have shown that the polarity can be flipped on command. Now, using time-resolved magnetic soft x-ray microscopy at the ALS, researchers have shown for the first time how to use pulsed magnetic fields to reverse the circulation.
In magnetic vortices confined to tiny metal disks a few nanometers in diameter, the electron spins seek the lowest possible energy. Adjacent spins pointing in opposing directions cost energy. To avoid this, the electrons tend to arrange themselves into a circle, pointing either clockwise or counterclockwise around the disk. In the core of the vortex, however, where the circles get smaller and smaller and neighboring spins would inevitably align antiparallel, they tend to tilt out of the plane, pointing either up or down. So each disk has four bits instead of two—left or right circulation and up or down polarity of the core—but each orientation must be independently controllable.
Previously, researchers working at the ALS had found that a weak oscillating magnetic field in the plane of the nanodisk could reverse the polarity of the vortex core. As the gyrating core is nudged away from the center of the disk, successive magnetic waves move the core faster and faster until its polarity flips to the opposite orientation, all in less than a nanosecond. Now, a team of researchers from the Czech Republic, San Diego, and Berkeley, working at ALS Beamline 6.1.2, have demonstrated that similar methods can be used to reverse the direction of circulation.
Time-resolved soft x-ray transmission microscopy at ALS Beamline 6.1.2 allows researchers to make direct images of how the strength and duration of trains of electric and magnetic pulses affect the circulation of a magnetic vortex. No other method can provide similarly comprehensive information about the fastest dynamics of magnetic states on the nanoscale. These instruments are unique and serve the whole vortex community, worldwide.
In this work, the researchers demonstrated, for the first time, that nanosecond pulses of an external magnetic field can reverse the direction of circulation, and that the threshold field strength of the pulses is about half that required for a static field. The results are supported by both analytical models and micromagnetic simulations, showing that both the time and field-switching scales strongly depend on the disk geometry.
The disks were all tapered, with diagonal slices off their top surfaces that served to control the final orientation of circulation. But thickness and diameter were also important factors: the smaller the disk, the better. Thick disks (30 nanometers) over a thousand nanometers in diameter were slow, taking more than three nanoseconds to switch circulation. But disks only 20 nanometers thick and 100 nanometers across could switch orientation in less than 0.5 nanoseconds.
Much remains to be done before the four-value multibit becomes practical. Polarity can be controlled, and circulation can be controlled, but so far they can't be controlled at the same time. Plans for doing this are in the works. The researchers are also looking at ways to control spin with temperature and voltage, at how to completely decouple spin from charge currents, and even at ways to couple chains of nanodisks together to build logic devices—not just for memory, but for computation.

Problem Solver: Couple gets $4,000 back on Bank of America mortgage
It's not like mortgage paperwork is easy to understand — even for the experts. But things got really confusing with the loan Kelly and Eli Moreno of Irving have with Bank of America.
The Morenos were told they needed to pay $15,000 to keep their home, but say they could not get a satisfactory answer as to why. So they contacted me after seeing a story about how I helped a couple, who got $91,000 back.
It turned out that there were mistakes by the homeowners and the bank, as I wrote here.
In the end the couple got about $4,000 back and won't have to pay their mortgage until May. The bank said it also will drop any fees that were applied.

Direct from Broadway, the smash-hit musical American Idiot tells the story of three lifelong friends, forced to choose between their dreams and the safety of suburbia. Based on Green Day's Grammy Award-winning multi-platinum album and featuring the hits "Boulevard of Broken Dreams," "21 Guns," "Wake Me Up When September Ends," "Holiday" and the blockbuster title track, American Idiot boldly takes the American musical where it's never gone before. With direction by Michael Mayer (Spring Awakening), choreography by Steven Hoggett (Black Watch) and orchestrations and arrangements by Tom Kitt (Next to Normal), the result is an experience Charles Isherwood of The New York Times declares "thrilling, emotionally charged, and as moving as any Broadway musical I've seen this year!"

For almost 50 years Clowes Memorial Hall has remained one of the Midwest's premiere performing arts facilities. Clowes Memorial Hall opened its doors October 18, 1963 in memory of the late Dr. George Henry Alexander Clowes, former research director for Eli Lilly and Company. Dr. Clowes devoted his life to science and the arts. The idea of a multi-purpose hall to serve Indianapolis and the community as a center for all the entertaining arts was conceived by Dr. Clowes. Funds to erect and complete the hall were subscribed by Dr. Clowes' family, with his wife, Edith Whitehill Clowes as the principal donor, Butler University and a small circle of friends sharing in Dr. Clowes' devotion to the arts.
