Cystatin C Level as a Marker of Kidney Function in Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection

Archives of internal medicine
Although studies have reported a high prevalence of end-stage renal disease in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected individuals, little is known about moderate impairments in kidney function. Cystatin C measurement may be more sensitive than creatinine for detecting impaired kidney function in persons with HIV.
We evaluated kidney function in the Fat Redistribution and Metabolic Change in HIV Infection (FRAM) cohort, a representative sample of 1008 HIV-infected persons and 290 controls from the Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults (CARDIA) study in the United States.
Cystatin C level was elevated in HIV-infected individuals; the mean±SD cystatin C level was 0.92±0.22 mg/L in those infected with HIV and 0.76±0.15 mg/L in controls (P<.001). In contrast, both mean creatinine levels and estimated glomerular filtration rates appeared similar in HIV-infected individuals and controls (0.87±0.21 vs 0.85±0.19 mg/dL [to convert to micromoles per liter, multiply by 88.4] [P=.35] and 110±26 vs 106±23 mL/min/1.73 m2 [P=.06], respectively). Persons with HIV infection were more likely to have a cystatin C level greater than 1.0 mg/L (OR, 9.8; 95% confidence interval, 4.4-22.0 [P<.001]), a threshold demonstrated to be associated with increased risk for death and cardiovascular and kidney disease. Among participants with HIV, potentially modifiable risk factors for kidney disease, hypertension, and low high-density lipoprotein concentration were associated with a higher cystatin C level, as were lower CD4 lymphocyte count and coinfection with hepatitis C virus (all P<.001).
Individuals infected with HIV had substantially worse kidney function when measured by cystatin Clevel compared with HIV-negative controls, whereas mean creatinine levels and estimated glomerular filtration rates were similar. Cystatin C measurement could be a useful clinical tool to identify HIV-infected persons at increased risk for kidney and cardiovascular disease.

Journal of acquired immune deficiency syndromes (1999)
Visceral obesity is associated with insulin resistance, but the association of other regional adipose depots with insulin resistance is not understood. In HIV infection, buffalo hump (upper trunk fat) is associated, but the association of upper trunk fat with insulin resistance has not been examined in controls. To determine the independent association of adipose depots other than visceral with insulin resistance, we performed a cross-sectional analysis of controls and HIV-infected subjects in the Fat Redistribution and Metabolic Change in HIV Infection (FRAM) study, who had measurements of glucose, insulin, and adipose tissue volumes by whole-body magnetic resonance imaging. We studied 926 HIV-positive persons from 16 academic medical center clinics and trials units with demographic characteristics representative of US patients with HIV infection and 258 FRAM controls from the population-based Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults study. We measured visceral adipose tissue (VAT) and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) volume in the legs, arms, lower trunk (back and abdomen), and upper trunk (back and chest) and assessed their association with the homeostasis model of assessment (HOMA) and HOMA >4 by stepwise multivariable analysis. The prevalence of HOMA >4 as a marker of insulin resistance was 28% among controls compared with 37% among HIV-infected subjects (P = 0.005). Among controls, those in the highest tertile of upper trunk SAT volume had an odds ratio (OR) of 9.0 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.4 to 34; P = 0.001) for having HOMA >4 compared with the lowest tertile, whereas in HIV-positive subjects, the OR was lower (OR = 2.09, 95% CI: 1.36 to 3.19; P = 0.001). Among controls, the highest tertile of VAT volume had an OR of 12.1 (95% CI: 3.2 to 46; P = 0.0002) of having HOMA >4 compared with the lowest tertile, whereas in HIV-positive subjects, the OR was 3.12 (95% CI: 2.0 to 4.8; P < 0.0001). After adjusting for VAT and upper trunk SAT, the association of other SAT depots with HOMA >4 did not reach statistical significance. Thus, VAT and upper trunk SAT are independently associated with insulin resistance in controls and in HIV-infected persons.

Journal of acquired immune deficiency syndromes (1999)
Coinfection with hepatitis C virus (HCV) is reported to be associated with a higher prevalence of lipodystrophy than HIV infection alone. We examine the association between HCV and adipose tissue volume in HIV-infected men and women.
Cross-sectional analysis of HIV-infected subjects from the study of Fat Redistribution and Metabolic Change in HIV Infection. MRI measured regional adipose tissue volume. Detectable HCV RNA defined HCV infection.
Twenty percent of 792 men and 26% of 329 women were HIV/HCV-coinfected. HIV/HCV-coinfected and HIV-monoinfected women had similar amounts of subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) in the leg, lower trunk, upper trunk, and arm and similar amounts of visceral adipose tissue (VAT). Similar findings were seen in men, except in the leg and VAT. After adjustment, HCV infection remained associated with more leg fat in men (12.2%, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.3 to 25.3; P = 0.043). Among those on stavudine, HIV-monoinfected men had less leg fat (−7% effect per year of stavudine use, 95% CI: −9 to −5; P < 0.001); a weaker association was seen in HIV/HCV-coinfected men (−2% effect, 95% CI: −7 to 3; P = 0.45). Indinavir was associated with less leg fat (−4% in HIV-monoinfected men, 95% CI: −6 to −1; P = 0.002; −5% in HIV/HCV-coinfected men, 95% CI: −11 to 2; P = 0.14).
Our findings suggest that HIV/HCV coinfection is not associated with less SAT in men and women. HCV infection seems to mitigate the loss of leg fat seen in HIV-infected men on stavudine.

Estimating past hepatitis C infection risk from reported risk factor histories: implications for imputing age of infection and modeling fibrosis progression

BMC Infectious Diseases
Chronic hepatitis C virus infection is prevalent and often causes hepatic fibrosis, which can progress to cirrhosis and cause liver cancer or liver failure. Study of fibrosis progression often relies on imputing the time of infection, often as the reported age of first injection drug use. We sought to examine the accuracy of such imputation and implications for modeling factors that influence progression rates.
We analyzed cross-sectional data on hepatitis C antibody status and reported risk factor histories from two large studies, the Women's Interagency HIV Study and the Urban Health Study, using modern survival analysis methods for current status data to model past infection risk year by year. We compared fitted distributions of past infection risk to reported age of first injection drug use.
Although injection drug use appeared to be a very strong risk factor, models for both studies showed that many subjects had considerable probability of having been infected substantially before or after their reported age of first injection drug use. Persons reporting younger age of first injection drug use were more likely to have been infected after, and persons reporting older age of first injection drug use were more likely to have been infected before.
In cross-sectional studies of fibrosis progression where date of HCV infection is estimated from risk factor histories, modern methods such as multiple imputation should be used to account for the substantial uncertainty about when infection occurred. The models presented here can provide the inputs needed by such methods. Using reported age of first injection drug use as the time of infection in studies of fibrosis progression is likely to produce a spuriously strong association of younger age of infection with slower rate of progression.

High-throughput mutagenesis of the mammalian genome is a powerful means to facilitate analysis of gene function. Gene trapping in embryonic stem cells (ESCs) is the most widely used form of insertional mutagenesis in mammals. However, the rules governing its efficiency are not fully understood, and the effects of vector design on the likelihood of gene-trapping events have not been tested on a genome-wide scale.
Methodology/Principal Findings
In this study, we used public gene-trap data to model gene-trap likelihood. Using the association of gene length and gene expression with gene-trap likelihood, we constructed spline-based regression models that characterize which genes are susceptible and which genes are resistant to gene-trapping techniques. We report results for three classes of gene-trap vectors, showing that both length and expression are significant determinants of trap likelihood for all vectors. Using our models, we also quantitatively identified hotspots of gene-trap activity, which represent loci where the high likelihood of vector insertion is controlled by factors other than length and expression. These formalized statistical models describe a high proportion of the variance in the likelihood of a gene being trapped by expression-dependent vectors and a lower, but still significant, proportion of the variance for vectors that are predicted to be independent of endogenous gene expression.
The findings of significant expression and length effects reported here further the understanding of the determinants of vector insertion. Results from this analysis can be applied to help identify other important determinants of this important biological phenomenon and could assist planning of large-scale mutagenesis efforts.

Factors Associated with Findings of Published Trials of Drug–Drug Comparisons: Why Some Statins Appear More Efficacious than Others
Bero, Lisa
Oostvogel, Fieke
Lee, Kirby
PLoS Medicine
Published pharmaceutical industry–sponsored trials are more likely than non-industry-sponsored trials to report results and conclusions that favor drug over placebo. Little is known about potential biases in drug–drug comparisons. This study examined associations between research funding source, study design characteristics aimed at reducing bias, and other factors that potentially influence results and conclusions in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of statin–drug comparisons.
Methods and Findings
This is a cross-sectional study of 192 published RCTs comparing a statin drug to another statin drug or non-statin drug. Data on concealment of allocation, selection bias, blinding, sample size, disclosed funding source, financial ties of authors, results for primary outcomes, and author conclusions were extracted by two coders (weighted kappa 0.80 to 0.97). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression identified associations between independent variables and favorable results and conclusions. Of the RCTs, 50% (95/192) were funded by industry, and 37% (70/192) did not disclose any funding source. Looking at the totality of available evidence, we found that almost all studies (98%, 189/192) used only surrogate outcome measures. Moreover, study design weaknesses common to published statin–drug comparisons included inadequate blinding, lack of concealment of allocation, poor follow-up, and lack of intention-to-treat analyses. In multivariate analysis of the full sample, trials with adequate blinding were less likely to report results favoring the test drug, and sample size was associated with favorable conclusions when controlling for other factors. In multivariate analysis of industry-funded RCTs, funding from the test drug company was associated with results (odds ratio = 20.16 [95% confidence interval 4.37–92.98], p < 0.001) and conclusions (odds ratio = 34.55 [95% confidence interval 7.09–168.4], p < 0.001) that favor the test drug when controlling for other factors. Studies with adequate blinding were less likely to report statistically significant results favoring the test drug.
RCTs of head-to-head comparisons of statins with other drugs are more likely to report results and conclusions favoring the sponsor's product compared to the comparator drug. This bias in drug–drug comparison trials should be considered when making decisions regarding drug choice.
Lisa Bero and colleagues found published trials comparing one statin with another were more likely to report results and conclusions favoring the sponsor's product than the comparison drug.
Editors' Summary
Randomized controlled trials are generally considered to be the most reliable type of experimental study for evaluating the effectiveness of different treatments. Randomization involves the assignment of participants in the trial to different treatment groups by the play of chance. Properly done, this procedure means that the different groups are comparable at outset, reducing the chance that outside factors could be responsible for treatment effects seen in the trial. When done properly, randomization also ensures that the clinicians recruiting participants into the trial cannot know the treatment group to which a patient will end up being assigned. However, despite these advantages, a large number of factors can still result in bias creeping in. Bias comes about when the findings of research appear to differ in some systematic way from the true result. Other research studies have suggested that funding is a source of bias; studies sponsored by drug companies seem to more often favor the sponsor's drug than trials not sponsored by drug companies
Why Was This Study Done?
The researchers wanted to more precisely understand the impact of different possible sources of bias in the findings of randomized controlled trials. In particular, they wanted to study the outcomes of "head-to-head" drug comparison studies for one particular class of drugs, the statins. Drugs in this class are commonly prescribed to reduce the levels of cholesterol in blood amongst people who are at risk of heart and other types of disease. This drug class is a good example for studying the role of bias in drug–drug comparison trials, because these trials are extensively used in decision making by health-policy makers.
What Did the Researchers Do and Find?
This research study was based on searching PubMed, a biomedical literature database, with the aim of finding all randomized controlled trials of statins carried out between January 1999 and May 2005 (reference lists also were searched). Only trials which compared one statin to another statin or one statin to another type of drug were included. The researchers extracted the following information from each article: the study's source of funding, aspects of study design, the overall results, and the authors' conclusions. The results were categorized to show whether the findings were favorable to the test drug (the newer statin), inconclusive, or not favorable to the test drug. Aspects of each study's design were also categorized in relation to various features, such as how well the randomization was done (in particular, the degree to which the processes used would have prevented physicians from knowing which treatment a patient was likely to receive on enrollment); whether all participants enrolled in the trial were eventually analyzed; and whether investigators or participants knew what treatment an individual was receiving.
One hundred and ninety-two trials were included in this study, and of these, 95 declared drug company funding; 23 declared government or other nonprofit funding while 74 did not declare funding or were not funded. Trials that were properly blinded (where participants and investigators did not know what treatment an individual received) were less likely to have conclusions favoring the test drug. However, large trials were more likely to favor the test drug than smaller trials. When looking specifically at the trials funded by drug companies, the researchers found various factors that predicted whether a result or conclusion favored the test drug. These included the impact of the journal publishing the results; the size of the trial; and whether funding came from the maker of the test drug. However, properly blinded trials were less likely to produce results favoring the test drug. Even once all other factors were accounted for, the funding source for the study was still linked with results and conclusions that favored the maker of the test drug.
What Do These Findings Mean?
This study shows that the type of sponsorship available for randomized controlled trials of statins was strongly linked to the results and conclusions of those studies, even when other factors were taken into account. However, it is not clear from this study why sponsorship has such a strong link to the overall findings. There are many possible reasons why this might be. Some people have suggested that drug companies may deliberately choose lower dosages for the comparison drug when they carry out "head-to-head" trials; this tactic is likely to result in the company's product doing better in the trial. Others have suggested that trials which produce unfavorable results are not published, or that unfavorable outcomes are suppressed. Whatever the reasons for these findings, the implications are important, and suggest that the evidence base relating to statins may be substantially biased.

Hey everyone. Hoping to get accepted into this thread. I spoke to Yellow about it and they let me know that all the student spots are currently taken, but I can make a teacher and have a student as my second character. So here goes, hopefully I've done everything okay. I wasn't sure if my pokemon were allowed to know all the moves that they do, but I read that all the moves they can learn could theoretically be taught to them via TM, so hopefully I haven't messed up. Anyway, here are my applications. Cheers!
Name: Malcolm West
Nickname: Mr. West
Age: 46
Gender: Male
Job: Advanced Pokemon Theory: Understanding Types, Interactions and Exceptional Strategy. This class is only for students who are acing their other written subjects.
Appearance: A middle aged man with a face lined and tired from years on the road as a Pokemon Trainer. His light brown hair has receeded and thinned slightly and his blue eyes give the impression of exhaustion. His clothing tends towards the professional but shabby creating the air of an absent minded professor. Standing at five foot eleven he doesn't slouch, but loves sinking low in chairs.
Personality: Malcolm West at almost all times gives the impression of desperately needing a vacation. Despite being prone to tiredness and overworking himself however he is a man who seems genuinely inspired and invigorated by pokemon, often speaking about them with great excitement. Generally upbeat, he becomes disheartened when discussing his attempted career as a Pokemon Trainer, and seems to have lost a great deal of his passion for battling - although he still enjoys watching battles and concocting strategies.
History: Malcolm West grew up primarily in a small family cabin on the outskirts of Pewter City with his parents. Malcolm's father was a notorious rock collector and history buff, who insisted on Malcolm having a strong academic base of knowledge. Generally resenting what many would consider a dull and uneventful life, Malcolm ran away from home at an early age - considering himself something of a wandering rebel. On his wanderings Malcolm encountered and befriended a wild Growlithe, and it wasn't long after this that he decided to become a Pokemon Trainer.
Malcolm spent over twenty years attempting to become a successful Trainer, and failed. Altough gifted with a great knowledge of pokemon and able to conjure up seemingly unbeatable strategies, his practical application of his knowledge just never seemed to take off. During his travels Malcolm had a son, Lincoln, who he took on the road with him at various stages throughout his life. After years of failing as a Trainer, Malcolm applied for a teaching position at the Gary Oak Pokemon Academy in the hopes that he may find more success and fulfillment there. Those who can't - teach.
Species: Arcanine (Male)
Nickname(Optional): Hermes
Personality: Hermes is unflinchingly loyal and inquisitive, and still up for a battle despite his years.
Lvl(Max 50):44
Moveset(Maximum of 6. TMs and egg moves are allowed): ExtremeSpeed, Bite, Thunder Fang, Fire Fang, Fire Spin, Double Kick
Species: Vespiquen (Female)
Nickname: Gloria
Personality: Fussy and fastidious, Gloria has to have everything her way.
Lvl: 32
Moveset: Defend Order, Heal Order, Attack Order, Power Gem, Confuse Ray, Venoshock
Species: Lickitung (Female)
Nickname: Angel
Personality: Jealous and protective, Angel fawns over Malcolm and doesn't seem to like other people approaching him.
Lvl: 36
Moveset: Lick, Stomp, Power Whip, Flamethrower, Brick Break, Hyper Beam
Species: Chatot (Male)
Nickname: Lyric
Personality: Lyric enjoys getting Malcolm into mischief and thinks he could do with more fun in his life, but cares for him deeply.
Lvl: 29
Moveset: Chatter, Taunt, Mimic, Sing, Aerial Ace, Double Team
Name: Lincoln West
Nickname: Linc
Age: 15
Gender: Male
Dorm: Raikou Dorm
Appearance: Linc, only just falling into the age limit for the academy is one of the older students there. Accompanied with his impressive stature for his age of five foot nine and a muscular build, this would potentially make him intimidating to the other students if not for the fact that he otherwise looks so friendly. He has a broad, bright smile and his fathers blue eyes. He inherited his fathers light brown hair, but it has become sun bleached from his extensive time outdoors, which he keeps held back from his face by a pair of goggles he wears on his head. Linc gets a lot of grief for this "anime boy" look, but insists he has a reason.
Personality: Linc is an easygoing young man with a strong stubborn streak. He is friendly towards pretty much everyone he meets, but once he gets an impression of someone it tends to stick. He holds grudges and is slow to forgive, but when he finally does it seems to be completely. Linc is proud of everything his father managed to accomplish as a trainer, and becomes highly defensive of his father if he hears someone speaking ill of him. Their main point of contention is Linc's mother, of whom he knows almost nothing. Although Linc is a very active and determined young man, he can get sidetracked, possessing a strong sense of wanderlust, and is often too concerned with helping others over himself. Linc likes to think he always does the right thing, but can sometimes come across airheaded despite his intelligence.
History: Linc grew up largely on the road, travelling with his father who was a Pokemon Trainer at the time. Lincoln loved this lifestyle and it has turned him into a very active young man who loves to travel and explore. His relationship with his father has always been strong, but they often fall out over the issue of Lincoln's mother of whom Malcolm refuses to speak. At one point during their travels they had such a large fight over the issue as they passed through Pewter City that Lincoln ran away to his grandfathers cabin, where the two would often stay when they were near Pewter City. Malcolm found his son in the cabin, sitting with his grandfathers rock collection. Neither speak much of the conversation that followed, but they fight considerably less about Lincoln's mother now.
Lincoln, as a trainer himself, is determined to become a fantastic Rock-type specialist and is unusual in the fact that currently his only Pokemon are not only rock-types, but fossil pokemon. This currently gives Lincoln the unusual distinction of being a Fossil-type specialist.
Lincoln has come to the academy with his father, who secured a teaching position there, and is registered in the Raikou Dorm (as he has not performed the entrance exams, but has been accepted due to his fathers position.) Although he has a room in the dorms, he also has a room with his father.
Species: Shieldon (Male)
Nickname(Optional): Jackson
Personality (Can be as short or long as you want, but cannot be excessively vague): Jackson is an incredibly stubborn pokemon, very friendly to Lincoln but suspicious of strangers.
Lvl(Max 20): 13
Moves(Maximum of 6. TMs and egg moves are allowed): Toxic, Sandstorm, Protect, Iron Head, Stealth Rock, Dig.
Species: Tirtouga (Female)
Nickname: Bixi
Personality: Bixi is sensitive and concerned for Linc's wellbeing, often exasperated by his antics.
Lvl: 12
Moves: Crunch, Aqua Tail, Sandstorm, Ice Beam, Stone Edge, Iron Defense

The clip Chasing Youngtaek Heo from H (2002) That's correct. These two... The mother got a medical examination at our hospital. They both seem like they're unmarried mothers but... Well it seems like it's better for both sides not to ask about things like that, so I didn't ask. A person by the name of Youngtaek Heo... A month ago there was one who quit... Why did he quit? He secretly hoarded the hospital's equipment. Well... There were things like surgical knives, right! It seems that person has a criminal record. A criminal record? February, 28th What are you doing! Why aren't you coming in? I'm going in! Since you're taking full responsibility... Huh. Miyun's not just a common person. At that age she's at a higher rank than me. When she was an inspector she was awesome. But if you get to know her better, there's no one as pitiful as her. Because she came to us after Detective Han committed suicide... Do they have anything to do with each other? They were engaged. Because of that Shin Hyun, Jung Woo was in a state of shock! When he was at a lost I should have helped him. Indeed he catches with his own hands and then lets them go. That's reasonable since he killed six and then confessed to you.


text: Wendy West Palm Beach, Florida 2/11/2016 12:18:27 PM My husband and I rescued two male Springers about 5 years ago. They were only used for breeding purposes for those years. We are extremely lucky to get two dogs who are as loving and affectionate as "Our Boys" are. They were never allowed to be out of their kennels and run and had severe heartworms when we adopted them. The boys love to sit by the fire whether it is in So Florida or in Ga. I am looking forward to sitting by them and being their companion for as many years as they allow.

HappyMe1 Stars Out Of 5DisappointedDecember 31, 2015HappyMeQuality: 2Value: 1Meets Expectations: 1I was purchasing the 'comedy' DVD because I wanted to use it to cheer up folks. Unfortunately, dare I say it Chonda was both 'preachy' and 'judgmental of other Christians'. She runs through a list of her achievements and her rubbing shoulders with the Hollywood crowd and then discusses her first national TV appearance on a show hosted by a lesbian comedian. (I only know of the show's host because of her marriage in the media to another woman, etc etc). Chonda spends a great deal of time about how the lesbian TV host tells Chonda she is the 'first Christian who has been nice to her' and from there Chonda scolds and insults Christians including those in the audience for not being "good" Christians. Waiting for the humor? So was I. There wasn't any there. It was about judging Christians as failures and believing the lesbian woman's statement that no other Christian has every been nice to her. Chonda rambles on how the TV host was pleasant to her and then comes back around again to slam Christians for not being nice folks. Since I bought the DVD for HUMOR and an escape from the world's social agenda --- the DVD did NOT meet my expectations. Extremely disappointed and NOT useful to share with others to cheer them up. Bummer...wasted my money and got more insults tossed at me....the DVD belongs in the old trusted "Circular File". I gave this a 1 for NOT meeting my expectations; Product Value a 1 --- if there were negative ratings I would give it that. Don't buy this DVD if you are looking for someone to bring positive thoughts and humor to the viewer.
dvcjOklahomaAge: 35-44Gender: Female3 Stars Out Of 5Okay.August 30, 2015dvcjOklahomaAge: 35-44Gender: FemaleQuality: 3Value: 3Meets Expectations: 3As another reviewer said, it was a little more serious than funny. I've seen Chonda in person and watched several of her other stand-up acts, but this one was more like she was truly on her "soapbox." The first 20 minutes or so is hilarious, but than it's more of a sermon/lecture about how we as Christians shouldn't judge one another. That being said, I only paid $5 so I wasn't out a lot of money.

BALTIMORE, Md. — A federal safety official on Monday praised Operation Lifesaver Inc. for its leading role in efforts to reduce highway-rail grade crossing accidents by more than 80 percent since its founding in 1972.
National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) Chairman Deborah Hersman made the commendation in a speech at the Operation Lifesaver symposium in Baltimore.
"We rely on the great work of organizations like Operation Lifesaver to apply common-sense, life-saving solutions at the grassroots level throughout our country," Hersman said, "but for all the remarkable progress that's been made in [Operation Lifesaver's] 38-year history, there is much more work to be done."
Hersman noted that there were 245 fatalities and 708 injuries at grade crossings in 2009. She identified the three primary factors contributing to virtually all grade crossing accidents: the vehicle, the environment or the driver. She then highlighted specific NTSB accident investigations that identified one of these three elements as being a key part of the probable cause of each crash.
While pointing out a few examples where the vehicle and the environment were causal factors, Hersman said that more than 90 percent of all grade crossing accidents are due to the driver. Problems ranging from driver inattention or distraction to unfamiliarity with the crossing can contribute to a driver-caused crash.
Hersman said that both the NTSB and Operation Lifesaver must continue to support efforts to reduce distracted driving and improve driver education in order to eliminate grade crossing accidents — and all vehicle accidents — on U.S. roadways.
Among Operation Lifesaver's offerings is training specifically for school bus drivers. On its Website, it provides recommended procedures for school bus drivers at grade crossings. An 18-minute training video titled "Decide Smart, Arrive Safe," which was produced in cooperation with the pupil transportation industry, is also available.
According to Federal Railroad Administration statistics, from 1994 through 2004, there were 31 highway-rail grade crossing collisions involving school buses in the U.S. Those incidents resulted in 111 injuries and 13 fatalities.

Recap: 'America's Next Top Model' - 'Patricia Field'
It's makeover week for the models, who then get photographed as fallen angels
Anamaria has been sent home, where, one would hope, several cheeseburgers are waiting for her in one big stack. Meantime, we've moved on -- already! -- to the makeover show for this cycle. (Scissors. Scissors! Runnnnn!)
[Full recap of Wednesday's (Sept. 22) "America's Next Top Model" after the break...]
Sara has a baby that she named Caiden (?) and leaving him behind was like, soooooo hard. Sarah is also suffering from a several case of ordinariness of the face. Everybody is just sitting around contemplating this when Tyra arrives in a jaunty menswear ensemble and asks for a tour of the house she's rented. She also announces that it's makeover time. We don't know exactly what's coming just yet. Tyra just hints at her plans -- including, wha? They're going to widen the gap in Chelsey's teeth? Seriously? Please, people, let's just focus on hair.
Before Tyra leaves, she shows how models used to walk -- in 1991.
Lexie, whose competitive streak is as transparent as a pair of lucite stripper shoes, pulls a prank on the rest of the house, leaking a fake makeover memo. Lexie even goes so far as to seem shocked at her own planned "makeover," bursting into crocodile tears. It's all just hilarious.
To, you know, Lexie. ("It was a great success," she proclaims.)
The girls are brought to the Fred Segal salon for their makeover transformations. Ann gets a ton of very pretty reddish hair. It's gorgeous. Liz gets chopped; she thinks she looks like a man, baby. But she pulls herself together in time for her post-makeover shoot.
Yes, Chelsey gets the gap in her teeth widened, and -- let's not confuse this -- her hair whitened. As for Sara: Bye-bye ordinary. Her new dark hair and pale brows evoke Evangeline Lilly, not that she acts any less pedestrian. Kendal gets very long hair.
Holy crap: Kayla gets a full-on Leeloo Dallas Multipass bright red coif put on her head. But it's 100 percent high-fash, and Kayla is a real model, and she knows to embrace it. Terra gets her hair chopped, and her misery radiates in her shoot. Sister Chris gets gorgeous wavy extensions and rocks 'em. Ditto with Rhianna.
Now comes Esther, whose hair looks very not different at all -- unlike Jane, who goes lighter.
As for Kacey: Finally! She gets contacts! And finally, Lexie: She does not get the orange afro that was threatened in her fake memo. She does appear to get more hair, but no more personality, and the Jays are underwhelmed in her post-makeover shoot.
Right after the makeover comes a surprise elimination: miserable Terra is sent packing. That also means that the sisters are separated, and only Chris remains to compete.
TyraMail! The mail indicates some sort of height-related challenge. Photographer Anne Menke meets the girls on a beach and indicates that the girls will pose as angels falling into the sky. They will be up on a crazy jerry-rig, and they will be posing with guys posing as mortal men.
Kayla is a lesbian and doesn't want a lot of touching and groping.
Esther tries to portray a "fearless" angel, but it takes her a while to get there. Eventually she manages to pull out at least one usable shot.
Liz cannot stop complaining even as she hovers over a gorgeous beach in the California sun. Also falling under the pain in the ass category: Lexie, who just needs to leave. That's not me; that's the photographer talking. In her catch-all Euro accent, she declares that Lexie should not be a model, and it is a glorious moment.
Kayla manages to sell herself as a straight girl for a few hours, enough to satisfy Mr. Jay.
Sara once again fails miserably in ways so boring they do not merit the time it would take to describe.
Kacey flirts with her chosen man before her shoot, and even chases after him once he tries to leave. (And, asMediaTakeOut.com might put it, SHE HAS A BF YO!!!!!!!!!)
Jane, Chris and Chelsey all impress the judges, and Ann continues to show that she's not just a freak, but rather a very promising freak in the world of fashion.
Panel time!
Guest judge: Patricia Field, stylist for Sex and the City.
Dreckitude. Dreckitude!
Kendal: Meh. Chris: Meh. Liz: Meh. But Andre thinks it's a good start. Chelsey does fine. Esther, poor Esther, has no range and looks a little lost. Ditto with Jane, who doesn't seem to know what "scorned" really means.
Kacey is also flat in her effort to do a "fearless" angel. Lexie and Sara are zeros.
Rhianna gives the judges a little bit of intrigue. Kayla delivers also, somewhat.
Finally, here comes Ann! And she kills! On film, anyway. In person, she still needs a bit of a backbone.
The callout: Ann, Kayla, Chelsey and Chris, followed by Rhianna, Liz, Jane, Kacey, Kendal, Esther.
Bottom two: Lexie and Sara.
Lexie gets dressed down for having no personality. Sara gets ripped for mistaking her job for that of a ballet dancer. Lexie gets to stay, even though she, as Tyra puts it, "gave us dead-itorial."
Sara vows to keep Tyra's makeover and maybe go find a job.
Next week: Oh, man. Who brought the eel?

Just five days after Andy Reid said that Sean McDermott would be back next season, the Eagles' defensive coordinator was fired, the team confirmed Saturday.
The Eagles have not named a replacement, although senior assistant Dick Jauron is a candidate, team sources said. There will be a full interviewing process, but the vetting may not begin until Reid returns from a vacation that ends later this week.
The head coach was not available for comment, a team spokesman said.
Attempts to reach the locally raised McDermott were unsuccessful.
"I'm really surprised because I didn't expect that to happen," Eagles safety Quintin Mikell said in a text message to The Inquirer. "I don't know how to take it."

French champions Paris Saint-Germain spectacularly bounced back from a disappointing draw at Evian Thonon Gaillard last week by comprehensively dismantling a weary AS Saint-Etienne side 5-0 at the Parc des Princes on Sunday.
UEFA Europa League duty had taken a lot out of Christophe Galtier's men—not to mention deprived them of one or two key players—and two games in the space of three days proved too much. But that should not take anything away from les Parisiens, who were excellent, particularly in the second half.
Talisman Zlatan Ibrahimovic returned from a minor injury to plunder three goals, while strike partner Edinson Cavani scored with a sublime finish and ASSE goalkeeper Stephane Ruffier posted his contender for gaffe of the season, putting through his own net in comic fashion.
That emphatic victory sees PSG rise to second in the early season Ligue 1 table, with Ibrahimovic shooting to the top of le Championnat's goalscoring charts.
Coach Laurent Blanc was delighted with the way that his players bounced back from that insipid goalless draw with Evian last week. Speaking to PSG.fr shortly after the match, he said:
It was a very good result, it shows in the standings. The most important thing is to have played well in front of our supporters, with lots of chances to score. This week in training, we could feel the side getting stronger.
I'm very happy with the way the team played tonight. We always see the attacking side, but I'm also very pleased with the defensive side, because we were very solid and in the big matches, that is often the difference.
Here are some winners and losers from PSG's 5-0 rout.

***OFFICIAL*** Joseph Benavidez vs. Ian McCall Thread
Flyweight bout: 125 pounds
Benavidez by punches late.
I really want McCall to win and finish the trilogy with Mighty Mouse, but I don't think he will be able to beat Benavidez.
Benavidez by UD.
I can't vote against someone who grows a Captain Hook mustache.

Hope Uncle Creepy gets it done. It's a tough match to predict imo.
I remember when the fly GP started I thought Mouse vs Creepy was the real final. I just think both are better then Joe. I expect Creepy to beat Joe in all areas.
Im hoping for a McCall win.
1 Attachment(s)
I expected Joe to beat everyone in this division. Then he was beat handily. I still feel Joe is better, but I can't be as confident this time. Pick'em fight. As are most of these FLW fights.
This should be a very good fight. I think Benavidez will beat McCall but I expect it to produce fireworks.
Creepshow ftw. Can't go wrong with the stache.

Lion Ark is more action adventure style than traditional documentary. The film tells the story of a team from Animal Defenders International (ADI) that secured a ban on animal circuses in Bolivia, and then, when the circuses defied the law, set about rescuing every animal.
Lion Ark follows an ambitious and daring animal rescue and puts the audience right in the thick of the action – up close with the animals. This is not "talking heads" and retrospective interviews, but live, unpredictable action as it actually unfolds. The Lions are the real stars of the film but it also has at its heart all of the different people who pull together to help the animals.
The rescue was funded by Emmy award-winning TV host Bob Barker who, together with Lion Ark Associate Producer, ADI Ambassador and CSI actress Jorja Fox, appears in the film and explains the reasons for the rescue and their feelings about the arrival of the lions.
Described by critics as "uplifting" and "the feel-good movie of the year," Lion Ark has enjoyed sell out screenings at the Raindance Film Festival, London, Mill Valley Film Festival, CA, Starz Denver Film Festival, and Beloit International Film Festival, WI; has picked up Audience Choice Awards at San Diego Film Festival, Anchorage International Film Festival, and Sedona International Film Festival; and won the jury prize of Best Documentary at Sun & Sand Film & Music Festival Mississippi. In February, the surprise hit became the first animal rights film to be nominated for a prestigious NAACP Image Award for Outstanding International Motion Picture. While the Hollywood Reporter put Lion Ark on its list of 25 documentary Oscar contenders.
What reviewers are saying: "a spunky account of a perilous rescue mission...Lion Ark proceeds with refreshing unpredictability" (The New York Times); "Compelling cinema verité" (The Hollywood Reporter); "this film should be a target for this year's Oscars. Excellent." (ACED Magazine); "Lion Ark is the feel-good movie of the year!" (Reel Talk); "One of your must-see films of 2013" (The Independent Critic); "A consciousness-raising milestone of a documentary" (The Ecologist); "will restore some faith in humanity." (Shockya.com); "A deeply important film about bravely taking a stand against animal cruelty." (FatFreefilm). Read more reviews at: http://www.lionarkthemovie.com/news/lion-ark-reviews/

It has happened. It has been confirmed by Sony that they have shipped the final load of PS2s. Once they have sold out, you'll never be able to buy a new PS2. You may be asking, "Who cares? The PS2 was obsolete anyway.", but I'll tell you who cares.
I spent my weekends as a child playing the PS2 to no end, getting up after my parents went to sleep to beat a final level of Spongebob. Now, looking back on it, those were some of the best times of my life. I have also had some sort of a discovery in video games, where I'm discovering new games I haven't played and playing them instead of the new FPS on the market. This was back when a gaming company could not survive on just the graphics or the multiplayer mode. This was when you had to bring it all. Gameplay, Story, and Graphics. Your console didn't survive because of some motion controller. It survived because the games were amazing, and while Gameplay was the leader in PS2 games for the early part of the PS2's lifespan, we hit a peak with the later titles. Games like Metal Gear Solid 3 and Shadow of the Colossus brought Gameplay AND Graphics, not just graphics. You didn't use your system for trash-talking other 12 year olds or streaming movies to your TV using Netflix; You used your PS2 to watch DVDs(for the first year of it's lifespan), sure, but a year after it was released, we only used it to play games. We didn't have to worry about our Wi-Fi disconnecting, or servers going down, we had to worry about what game we were going to buy, and there sure was a selection.
This has turned into more of a rant than a farewell, but before we turn emotional, I'll just say one more thing on the rant side:
It makes me sad that no one at IGN feels this is a sad day. We can make an article on the last year of Xbox 360, sure, but one of the most influential consoles of all time does not get it's own article on it's death bed?
PS2, you made me into the gamer that I am today, and I thank you for that. Now, everyone who reads this, I would like you to play the YT video at the bottom of the blog.
In memory of:

ZFS with Linux do best
As we all know, ZFS is by far the best file system.
People have workarounds and solutions which are kind of 2nd tone replacements to work on Linux, but either ways, all these solutions are not really good replacements as they either are not stable enough or lack some of the salient features of ZFS.
KQ has ported ZFS to Linux and was a much awaited release since January 2010.
We are releasing the closed beta in last week of August/first week of september and are looking for closed beta customers who can test it for free on some environments.
Mail me at email@example.com to register.
Feel free to put forward any questions as well.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

If you listen to Charlie Johnston, the Bobcats will struggle just to field a team.
But if you listen to others in District 5-3A, Childress is loaded for another run deep into the playoffs.
Last season, Childress put together one of its finest seasons, going 12-3 and advancing to the Class 3A Division II semifinals before losing to Daingerfield 21-10.
However, the Bobcats lost seven offensive and five defensive starters from that squad, including much of the offensive line and backfield.
But the return of district most valuable player honoree Willie Thomas should soften that blow considerably. In 1998, Thomas ran for 1,650 yards and scored 26 touchdowns despite missing a couple of early games and playing the second half of the season with a shoulder injury.
"I think he's an outstanding running back, and I'm sure the defenses are going to keep a pretty good eye on him all season," Johnston said. "We have some good quality athletes to go with him, but most of them are awfully young."
The quarterback situation concerns Johnston. The Bobcats will try four or five prospects at the position during preseason drills. If nobody stands out, he will consider shifting a player from another position under center.
The offensive line should have some inexperienced holes, with only tight end Kevin Keys and interior linemen Jay Stroud and Wayne Mitchell returning.
Last year, the Bobcats did not have many two-way starters on the line and could pound away at opponents with Johnston's wing-T.
But with only a handful of experienced linemen, some of those will have to play on both sides.
The defense should be one of the Bobcats' strengths, with several outstanding linemen.ZMitchell played defensive tackle, and Ben Rhodes and Caleb Seal started as ends last season. Mitchell was a second-team all-district selection.
Childress lost almost its entire linebacking corps, including all-stater Juan Sierra.
Simon Arcivar saw the field as a part-time starter and returns, but the rest of the slots are open.
The secondary should be a strength of the Bobcats, with three starters returning - Trey Neal, Cody Bishop and Jaycin Smotherman. Smotherman was a second-team all-district selection.
Thomas is maybe the Bobcats' best defensive back. But Johnston wants to save him from the pounding and keep Thomas off the field except on offense.
"We don't have any depth, especially on the line," Johnston said. "We can't afford to get anybody hurt for very long, especially our starters." THOMAS

Before pressing the play button, I must confess to smirking slightly at the composers' notion of linking the elemental do-re-mi musical scale with the four nucleotides of DNA. The composers assigned each occurrence of adenine, cytosine, guanine, and thymine to different notes of the musical scale, such that C = do, T = re, G = so, and A = la. These notes form the sequential bass notes that lay the foundation for the rest of the musical score.
The first track, "Basic Components," is aptly named. The loping melody, which depicts an impossibly idyllic setting, might be found on any new-age relaxation tape and would probably be appreciated best in a leisurely bubble bath.
However, the next track, "YAL069W," is in stark contrast. Based on a yeast DNA sequence, the music abruptly recalls the harsh reality of life. Via dramatic undertones courtesy of the cello, one can almost imagine the scene in a modern cytogenetics lab: bustling with real people, real DNA, and the specter of real menace lurking in the genes of microscopic organisms.
Other tracks on the CD are based on human disease genes such as connexin 26 (a cause of deafness), repetitive DNA elements, and microbial genes. The music succeeds, at least in part, in evoking sadness, relaxation, and hope.
Indeed, one of the more ostensibly upbeat tracks on the CD actually holds a sad story. Based on the SLT2 gene sequence, "amanecer de Nohelly" is a delightful rhythmic piece dedicated to the wife of César Nombela, the former president of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC), who suffers from a neurological disease. As with the other tracks, the introduction begins with the score assigned to the DNA sequence, followed by the melody, provided by guitar, cello, violin, and flute. This instrumental paella conveys a real Spanish flavor, particularly appropriate given that it was Nombela's research group that originally discovered the SLT2 gene back in 1991.
In this age of rampant genetic reductionism, we should be grateful that musical taste is not dictated by one particular gene! It would not surprise me if many listeners cynically dismissed "Genoma Music" as pretentious elevator music. But as a soothing remedy for a bad day languishing in the lab or captive at the computer, these varied musical offerings — the fusion of musical talent and scientific insight — could be enough to get your groove on.
Amanda Wren is international scientific communications officer at the National Cancer Center (CNIO), Madrid. Her musical tastes include flamenco, acid jazz, and boy bands. She can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Eds. note: Details (in Spanish) on purchasing the CD are available at www.genomamusic.com. Proceeds will go to help needy children in Argentina.

Star Trek Cheats

Also the co - op nature of the game is really the true way of playing it as playing solo at the moment at least is problematic at best due to kirk (especially) and spock bugging w/e one you find yourself not controlling. A good example of this is where they are supposed to follow you or you order them to a point and they get stuck spinning in a circle.
So my advice based off what i've played so far, is play the way its meant to be played via the co-op function, at least until the game is patched.
Hope this helps.
[Edited by lucious20042002, 4/24/2013 6:18:32 PM]
And as for playing with someone else instead of soloing, I don't like people, so i definetly dont want to play with them, im an unsocial bastard i know, but thats the truth, if it was kirk vs spok, that would be fine, but if i had to play friendly, id keep trying to lure my 'friend' into bad situations, and laugh at their iminent demise, making sure to tee bag there corpse after they had been slaughtered.
