I asked a smilar question before, but did not get anywhere. I drew an example which can be viewed here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/29009236@N02/4860312546/. we have about 2000 pictures similar to this one, with the particle in different positions and rotations. Is it possible to determine the rotation angle of the particle using matlab? our current solution is a program where we eyeball the rotation, and manually input the scan direction, but for 2000+ pictures, this is not the greatest. If we can determine the angle, we can write a peice for the program that will automatically set the scan direction. |

Concerns about a strike at the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach can finally be put to rest but there are new ones when it comes to talks involving ports on the other side of the country.
February 10, 2013
In December, after an eight-day strike at the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, tentative agreements were made that seemingly ended the strike. But, according to recent reports, the employees, who are members of the International Longshore and Warehouse Union's Local 63 Office Clerical Unit, failed to ratify those tentative agreements.
February 4, 2013
A looming strike at East and Gulf Coast ports has been avoided as the months-long labor negotiations finally reached a tentative agreement. Late Friday, Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service Director George H. Cohen, who has been moderating the negotiations since last year, issued a statement indicating that a tentative agreement had been reached regarding the Master Agreement between the United States Maritime Alliance and the International Longshoremen's Association.
December 17, 2012
The National Retail Federation sent a letter to President Obama to express the retail industry's growing concern about the possibility of a contract agreement not being reached between the International Longshoremen's Association and the United States Maritime Alliance, Ltd.

Icy roads throughout Kitsap County over the weekend left Washington State Patrol troopers responding to 76 reported collisions between 9 p.m. Saturday and noon today, according to State Patrol reports.
In addition, fire stations from Bainbridge Island to South Kitsap responded to constant reports of rollover collisions, cars in ditches and crashes during today's morning hours as drivers traveled too fast across slick roads covered in black ice.
Only five of the collisions tended to by state troopers involved injuries, and most of them were minor.
The most serious collision-related injury was to Trooper James Manning, a seven-year State Patrol veteran.
His patrol car was stopped at the scene of an crash along westbound Highway 16 just west of Mullenix Road when a suspected drunken driver hit his car just before 2 a.m. today.
The patrol car was parked along the inside shoulder of the road with its emergency lights on when a 28-year-old female who was going 60 mph hit it from behind, according to reports.
The woman was uninjured in the accident, but was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence and was taken to Kitsap County jail.
Manning was taken to Harrison Medical Center for back and neck injuries and was later released. His 2004 Chevrolet Impala patrol car was totaled.
Drivers are reminded to use caution during bad weather and to slow down. The leading cause of crashes like those over the weekend is due to drivers failing to slow down when road and weather conditions are poor, according to a State Patrol release.
The minimum fine for collisions resulting from driving too fast during adverse road conditions is $175.

I Realized I Am Being Verbally Abused in my Marriage, Pleaes Help
Find a Conversation
Sun, 02-16-2014 - 1:51am |
I posted recently in "surviving divorce and separation" http://www.ivillage.com/forums/love-sex/relationship-problems/surviving-divorce-separation/surviving-divorce-separation/should-i-wait-it-out-or-end-my-marriage-very-confused-need-help
I have been feeling like I've been going crazy while communicating with my husband. He constantly blames me for everything and makes me feel like every argument is my fault. Yesterday, he was in the kitchen eating a bagel. I asked if it was the last one. He said no. I knew there was another pack of bagels in the refrigerator but he was eating a bagel right out of the package. I went into the kitchen and saw that he was eating the last bagel in that package. I said, "you are eating the last bagel." He said, "No, open the goddam refrigerator!" I said, why do you have to be so mean when you talk to me? He said it was my tone that made him respond like that. Then he got up and went into the bedroom and got his pillow and went into the guest room. I followed him in and reminded him that when he returned home after a short break we took he had said that he didnt want to fight and realized he did not always have to be right. He said, "you are f***ing batsh*t!" I went into the bedroom and started to cry. I wondered, why did I have to ask about the bagel? Why is he treating me like this?
This happens all the time. He says I'm crazy and unstable. I feel like I'm walking on eggshells. If you read my earlier post, you'll see that I did see another man during our marriage but he forgave me, or so he said (I was not on medication at the time and was having manic episodes, I am now on medication and am stable). I also was raped after that. I feel he is now taking it out on me and making me live in torture. I question myself all the time and wonder what I could have said or done to make him so angry at me. He blows up for no reason and then takes off for Las Vegas for the weekend, without me, to see his family or leaves to go driving or go somewhere, I don't know where. He tells me it's my fault, because I am arguing or starting fights but all I'm ever doing is trying to explain my feelings. He says that he is a laid-back guy with everyone else but I make him angry and I make him fight. He says when you keep poking at a dog it will bite so he is justified at being mean to me. He says things like "I am at full liberty to bash your face in" when he gets angry with me for saying or doing things like locking him out when he is screaming at me (I only locked him out a few minutes). He has made other threats like he wants to tie me up and make me watch him bash his head in with a hammer. Then he says he doesn't really mean these things. All I do is ask him questions like "what are you doing today," "why are you being so quiet?" Then he attacks me with a verbal assault. I question myself all the time and feel so confused because I don't understand what I can do to make things go smoothly and make our relationship good again.
He owns two guns and I don't exactly feel safe in the house because of all this anger he has toward me. I am trying to figure out how to get out of this relationship but I am overwhelmed and it's hard to do this. I only know one person in the city I'm in because I quit my job to move here to be with him. That friend lives with her parents so I can't stay with her. He is in the Navy and refuses to stay on the ship. We don't have money for me to stay in a hotel. After al the threats he made of shooting people and tieing me up I stayed in a hotel but I came home. He said he was going to stay on the ship so that we could take a long break because he didn't want a divorce but he came home after two days and then started little jabs at me. He said that he has had to support me during my unemployment. He said I am pathetic and have turned into someone dependent on him. (I have taken a while to get back to applying for jobs after being raped). He made me feel like a burden. I told him he hurt my feelings and he just turned it around on me and was screaming at me all sorts of insults. I felt so bad that night I almost wanted to go to the hospital. I just want this torture to end.

I'm trying to stay strong. I don't think he has any desire to change. His other problem is that he drinks heavily and that also really bothers me. Sometimes a whole bottle of wine a day or 6-10 beers at a time. He has a lot of problems. I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and I accepted it and take my medication. But he won't accept his issues. He puts on a facade with other people and takes out all his anger and aggression on me.
I have made a plan to leave my marriage. I can't take this and it is not healthy for my mental state. I have overwhelming anxiety where it feels like I'm having a heart attack and I can't breathe. It's that "crazy-making" that he does to me. I actually tried to suggest that we do something fun together to try to make the mood in the house better and he didn't want to. He won't touch me or be affectionate. He has rejected me.
It's hard for me to maintain my self-esteem and think that I am better than all this but I am going to counseling. I need to remember that I don't deserve this treatment. It's hard because I was so into my marriage and into making it work but it is never going to. I plan to move in with my sister, who lives in another state, and have him served with divorce papers after I leave so that he does not fly into a rage and take it out on me when served. That was the lawyer's suggestion. I hope that I can stay strong during this! Thanks for your support.

Italian Americans and those of Italian origin around the world have a unique and rich heritage. Now several generations past their immigrating ancestors, more and more Italian descendants are wishing to know more about their ancestors' lives and the families they left behind. Amongst this group are many who are seeking to reclaim the Italian citizenship of their ancestors. As a researcher in Italian genealogy, I've found great satisfaction in reuniting Italian descendants with the heritage and culture of their ancestors. They have played an integral part in all aspects of life here in the United States.
Unless you have already performed significant research on your family, a typical research project usually starts by researching in certain United States records [census, immigration, naturalization, etc.] to provide a starting point within the Italian records. If you don't know where in Italy your ancestors originated from, research in the U.S. records will often point us in the right direction. Most records within Italy are kept at the town level, therefore one must know the town of origin [or the province, at the least] in order to research.
For a large portion of Italy, FamilySearch International has microfilmed or digitized the original civil [vital] records for the years 1806/1809/1820–1910, as well as a small amount of ecclesiastical and military records. If records for your town of origin are not available by microfilm or digitally, research can still be conducted on-site or by telephone, postal or email inquiries. The availability of records varies widely between each town and province in Italy.
Research reports are usually transmitted via email unless an physical copy is requested. If the original copy of document is acquired, it will be mailed to you separately. With each report, you are provided with source-cited copies of any documents found, a detailed analysis of the research, an abstraction of the documents into English, and recommendations for future research.
Italian-American Dual Citizenship
There is a growing interest within the Italian-American community in pursuing dual citizenship with Italy. We can help you acquire the Italian records needed for your dual citizenship application as well as prepare your application from A-Z!!!
For further information, please click the tab titled Italian Dual Citizenship and/or email us at [email protected] to discuss the specifics of your application!
Why Should You Hire Lo Schiavo Genealogica?
1. We work to the highest genealogical standards and are constantly studying and expanding our knowledge through a variety of educational opportunities. While at times clients want us to simply find a document in an Italian archive, we go above and beyond document retrieval work when we provide the translation and analysis of any documents found. We think standards and education in the field are important and because of this you, as the client, are afforded protections and recourses, if our work was not up to professional standards.
The owner, Melanie D. Holtz, CG, is certified by the Board for Certification of Genealogists. Every five years, a portfolio of work must be submitted in order to remain certified. This portfolio is judged by leaders in the field of genealogy and must show progression in the applicant's knowledge of the field and specialty she works in. Melanie also belongs to the Association of Professional Genealogists where she serves on the Board of Directors and Professional Development Committee.
2. We go above and beyond in the work we do. With offices in both Italy and the United States, we can offer research anywhere in mainland Italy, Sicily, San Marino, or any previously Italian parts of the world.
3. We work at a fair hourly rate plus expenses, except for specific Italian document requests which have a set rate. We feel working at an hourly rate is a transparent way to work and therefore fairer to our clients. We can work within any budget and will be honest if your budget does not appear to allow enough time for the requested work.
4. We do this work full-time which means that we can give your project the detailed attention that it deserves! We offer more than simply genealogical research services and can help you with your Italian dual citizenship, write your family history book, and offer illustrative services!
5. Lastly, we think our work speaks for itself. Please, don't hesitate to look at the examples of our work below. We believe that understanding the history behind the records and providing any cultural context that is needed to understand the records is important. All of this and more can be found within our research reports!
What do you need to begin?
In order to accurately estimate time and expenses, we will need a detailed summary of your previous research and what your research goals are. For example, are you looking to find out who your great-grandparents were or would you like to trace your family back as far as records will allow? Would you like a specific record for use towards your Italian dual citizenship application or want us to prepare a family history book?
You can provide this summary using the online form, by email or by postal mail. Melanie D. Holtz, CG will then evaluate the project, ask questions, and prepare a research plan and estimate for you. Then, once a research plan is agreed upon and the retainer received, your research will begin. We look forward to hearing from you!
Work Samples

- Research Report — Example 2 — Working with Record Loss
- Analysis of 18th Century Document and Research Plan
- Research Report - Example 3 — Looking for a Birth Record for Dual Citizenship
- Research Report — Example 4 — Working with Changing Jurisdictions
**New projects are currently being scheduled to begin October 1, 2013. However, if you have a project that you need done quickly, please contact me and we will work to meet your deadline!
Melanie D. Holtz, CG's blog Finding Our Italian Roots was named one of FamilyTree Magazine's Top 40 for international research (Around The World in 40 Blogs) in 2012!

by Laura Dail. A collection of stories and thoughts about adoption in a newly-published edition. It is written with adoptive families in mind, and contains resource lists for both children and adults.
Mamalita: An Adoption Memoir
by Jessica O'Dwyer. Although it is the story of a Guatemalan adoption, its appeal is universal to all adoptive parents—especially those who adopt internationally. I liked this book because it was well written and "a good read", but I loved this book because of the way O'Dwyer handled the ethics of international adoption. It is tempting as an adoptive parent to become defensive, to gloss over the ethical dilemmas inherent when wealthy people from developed countries adopt babies from poor people in undeveloped countries. It is equally tempting for "reformers" to over simplify the ethics and the solutions. The reality is that often international adoptions are a blur where the white and black hats are not at all clear. O'Dwyer captures the gray with a refreshing lack of defensiveness or editorializing, allowing us to ponder what we would do if faced with the same situation. This book is well worth the read.
The Reluctant Family
is an article I wrote for The Rainbowkids Newsletter about how to handle family members who are less than enthusiatsic about your adoption plans.

He was loved deeply by his adoptive parents, but still faced confusion and difficulty. It is through the love of his family that he puts all the pieces of past and future together.
Talking About Birth Parents.
This is a well written article on the importance of talking to your children about their birth parents even if they don't bring it up. Ellen Singer, with The Center for Adoption Support and Education, writes: "The major reason adoptive parents wrestle with the concept that their child could feel loss is based firmly in the fact that adopting their child has brought them joy. Associating sadness or negativity with their happiest moment is virtually impossible. For some there is the feeling that acknowledging the significance of birth parents somehow diminishes their place as parent. For others embracing birth parents can resurface unresolved feelings of loss adoptive parents experienced prior to adoption, like infertility."
Adoption is a Family Affair! What Relatives and Friends Must Know
by Patricia Irwin Johnston.
I like most books by Pat Johnston and this is no exception.
Adoption Learning Partners
has online courses titled "Let's Talk Adoption", "Finding the Missing Pieces", and "Becoming Your Child's Best Advocate". There is no fee unless you want a certificate of completion.

Specifically, chapters address the choice to adopt, coping with different seasons and special holidays while waiting for an adoption to come through, the emotions and challenges faced by people who are waiting with prospective parents, the range of emotions felt by those who are waiting, coping strategies for dealing with the wait, and spiritual resources to sustain prospective parents.
Finding Aster

SGR Bill's Payment Transparency Provision Elicits Concern
At least two physicians groups are expressing concern about a provision to a Senate bill that would repeal the Sustainable Growth Rate formula. The provision calls for the creation of a database that would include all payments made to physicians by Medicare.
Almost lost in the brouhaha over the expected repeal of the Sustainable Growth Rate funding formula is a provision that would make a physicians' Medicare claims database available to the public online and at no cost.
House and Senate versions of the "doc fix" bill repealing the SGR include language from the Medicare Data Access for Transparency and Accountability Act (Medicare DATA Act), legislation sponsored by Sens. Chuck Grassley, (R-IA), and Ron Wyden, (D-OR).
The database would include all payments made to physicians by Medicare. Patients' privacy would be fully protected, and providers would have an opportunity to correct payment information before being posted online. Currently, access to the Medicare payment database is limited to government officials and academics despite a federal judge's ruling in favor of greater public access, Grassley and Wyden said in a joint media release.

"Transparency draws in the public and invites analysis of policy and spending," Grassley said. "More transparency has made a difference in accountability in the tax-exempt sector, and it does the same wherever it's applied in healthcare."

Wags and Walks
Facts about Hope
- Breed: American Pit Bull Terrier/Labrador Retriever Mix
- Color: Brown/Chocolate - With White
- Age: Young
- Size: Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
- Sex: Female
My name is Hope!
Hope's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Hope is a 2-3 year old spayed female pit bull/labrador retriever mix (she has webbed feet!) who was rescued from the deadly San Bernardino shelter by Wags and Walks Dog Rescue and is available for adoption. This poor girl has been through a lot - she has had pneumonia as a result of being in a shelter, she has gone through several foster homes, and has been searching, yearning for her forever home.
Beautiful Hope is extremely affectionate, loving, eager to please, and obedient around the home. She is 100% housebroken and is crate trained. She eats in her crate and displays absolutely no food aggression with people or her foster siblings. She gets along great with her siblings and plays very well and gently with them. She sleeps all through the night in her bed and knows basic commands such a sit, down, off, and stay. She is also good about keeping her boundaries around the home.
Hope has been learning that life outside the home is not a scary place. She is learning propper leash manners and has already been living harmoniously with a cat, a dog and a 5 year old child. Hope will need a home that is willing to keep up her training and show her boundaries and guidance. Hope can live with another dog of similar size and temperament and in a home with children.
About Wags and Walks
About Our Rescue Group...
Wags and Walks was founded by Lesley Brog because she knew she could do more for animals.Lesley Brog grew up a veterinarian's daughter, a love for animals present as far back as she can remember. Dogs in particular. But it wasn't until she adopted a Pit Bull puppy, thirteen years ago, that her affinity developed into something much stronger.
A pharmaceutical sales rep by profession, Lesley spent most of her time off volunteering with dog rescue organizations and animal shelters. She was struck by the harsh reality: The majority of the dogs in shelters were healthy, family friendly animals, but due to time and space limitations, many had just five days to be adopted before being euthanized.
An overachiever with a can-do-anything spirit, Lesley knew that she could do more for animals. So she mustered up the courage to leave the corporate world, and created her own dog rescue organization, Wags and Walks. Her goal is to educate people about the types of dogs in the shelters and find those animals suitable, loving, fosters and adopters.
Today, she visits shelters as far as 60 miles away on a daily basis. She gets to know the animals, takes pictures and video, and urgently networks to find the dogs homes before they run out of time. Lesley's efforts have been nationally recognized, even resulting in a $10,000 grant from DogTime Media. To date, she has helped save the lives of hundreds of deserving dogs who have brought endless happiness and companionship to their families.
While that's quite an achievement, there are still 2-4 million healthy, adoptable animals who are euthanized each year (one every eight seconds) and Lesley realized that a lot more needed to be done. Out of this desire to create a better world for animals came a new service she is launching soon called 33Give.com, a place to promote the selfless, passionate work of nonprofit organizations and the programs they run that desperately need funding, and a place where pet owners looking for quality products could ensure that a portion of their purchase price goes directly toward saving and improving animals' lives. Become one of the first to become a part by going to 33Give.com and signing up!
Lesley recognizes that despite her best efforts, many thousands more face uncertain fates. She asks that you join her in committing to saving as many lives as possible. Get involved. Adopt, foster, or donate. Together we can change the world, one dog at a time...

What would be the fastest way to level with 2 characters with raf? Just doing instances or quests? Or will having a 90 run them thru instances work better? I havent done started at level 1 in awhile now nor done raf.
From what I've found just make sure to have a tank for instant queues and chain dungeons, with quests and the bonus at the end it's easy to get 2-3 levels per dungeon all the way up to like 50 at least. Goes very very fast.
What I've done in the past (from my experience as I have a friend who rafs about every 4-5 months) is this. Note this is all Horde Side.
1) He levels his toons to 15 so that they can enter majority of the dungeons and pickup the quests
2) Run RFC and with the new quests giving a huge chunk of XP gives a good amount of levels.
3) Next we'll do Deadmines followed up by Shadowfang Keep.
4) If high enough for SM quests then we head there, otherwise run SFK again for another level
5) Then we do SM a few times
6) Followed by ZF/RFK/RFD
7) Then ST / BRD / LBRS / UBRS
8) Head to Hellfire ramps at about 59, 60 is more preferrable as it'll help transition to Northrend with only doing the dungeons once
9) After Ramps go Blood Furnace -> Slave Pens -> Underbog -> Ring of Blood -> Mana Tombs -> Sethek Halls -> Shadow Labs (You could do crypts before tombs, I just find it not worth the time)
10) Should be about 69/70 at this point. 70 is a lot more preferrable as the transition from Nexus to AN is easier since the quests require 73 instead of 72.
11) Go UK -> Nexus -> AN -> OK -> DTK -> Ampitheater -> Gundrak -> (You can do VH here if you want, but again I don't find the time worth it) -> Halls of Lightning -> Halls of Stone (I prefer going to UK, it's less of a pain and a few more quests)
Doing all that should net you 80 within 3 days of playing for about 4-6 hours each time. Think usually we end up hitting 80 in about 20 hours of /played time.
The main thing is to make sure you are in a guild with at least +10% XP boost as it's a big help. If you have heirlooms following the above will go perfectly smooth. Otherwise without heirlooms you'll have to run a few dungeons over and over for levels.
Having done raf 3 times previously I can attest that instances are by far the fastest way to lvl. Trying to lvl by questing you out lvl the zones so fast youll be spending most of your time running around. One of ye queue as a tank and youll have instant queues all the way.
Have you ever stepped on a lego piece while barefoot?
Can you recall that exquisitely piercing and utterly unforgettable pedal agony? Now imagine what would happen if you were to step on between 10 and 25 angry, well armed lego pieces which are all acting in brutal concert, and tell me how that would go for you.
Plus they have magic and sharp objects.
Probably with a 90 with them. Their list is similar to the pattern I follow, but I prefer to chain clear BC dungeons that are easy to get in/out of, save the quests til they ding 70 which boost you well into Northrend so you don't have to do as much there. Botanica is really fast clear for a lot of XP and the exit is by the final boss which isn't the case with a lot of BC dungeons.
Also helps to have a group of 5 if possible as group bonus adds a lot of XP. (usually i make RAF alts with a friend so we have 4 low levels and a max level char).
Whatever you lose to level difference you gain back in speed.
I got to 15 questing then to 24 in 2 dungeons with no BoAs with RaF. Just make sure your partner is near you at ALL times. Took 4 hours then we just fudged around with proffs a lil. If you havent capped a toon with a friend by your side you haven't truly enjoyed the game IMO.

New Device Performs Body Scans Simultaneously
Reducing overall radiation
FRIDAY, June 10 (HealthDay News) -- The first device to perform simultaneous PET (position emission tomography) and MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) scans has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the agency said Friday.
PET scans involve injection of a radioactive tracer into the bloodstream, which gives doctors a glimpse of internal organs and tissue. MRI uses a magnetic field and radio waves to create detailed images of the body's organs, soft tissue and bones.
The Siemens Biograph mMR system creates both types of images at the same time, lowering overall radiation exposure and preventing the need to move a patient to two different scanners, the FDA said in a news release.
As with stand-alone MRIs, people with pacemakers, defibrillators and other implanted electronic devices should avoid the new system, since the scanner's strong magnetic fields could interfere with those devices, the agency said.
Siemens Medical Solutions is based in Malvern, Penn.

Pictures are worth thousands of words
I will let the pictures do most of the talking...
Phil(Chesney), Tom, and Paul chowing down on some dinner. This is right outside the church we pitched a tent love this dude! We stayed at the Chesney's house and they went above and beyond to show us hospitality. Awesome family and I wish we could have gotten to spend more time with them at their place!
Jeffry, Phil, and the Bros. Jeffry was able to join us for 3 days and showed phenomenal attitude and effort and made a great addition to the dynamics of the group. He faired pretty well considering he is a Carolina Gamecock.
I am going back to the Smokies one day, that area is just too beautiful to spend just a day there.
Paul's 'Blue Steel' pose, haha. We found this waterfall defending down Pisgah National forest in NC.
This was our welcome back to SC. Cool temperatures, downhill, and lots of fog. We have seen so many different types of landscapes but this decent was unlike anything we have ever seen/felt. I think it was a combination the area around Caesars Head and the fog. The fog got so thick in areas that we couldn't see more than 20 feet in front of us.
Ok, so currently we are in Travelers Rest, SC(10ish miles from our home in Greenville!). Our original goal of finishing by the 1st won't be happening, but our new goal is to be finished up with this grand journey by the 4th. We have about 230ish miles or so until the end. This is so surreal.
We got to see the family today too! I can't wait until we can sit down with them for an extended period of time and really catch up. Seeing Mom, Dad, and Lauren was so so good.
So close. We can feel it.
God has brought us so far, and has sustained us through the thick and thin of this trip. He will continue to sustain us for the days to come and forever more. Thank you Jesus for giving us true life through your sacrifice.
To Him be the Glory,

Polymorphisms in the catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) gene influence plasma total homocysteine levels.
Department of Psychiatry, University of Oxford, Oxford, United Kingdom.
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B Neuropsychiatric Genetics (Impact Factor: 3.23). 02/2008; 147B(6):996-9. DOI:10.1002/ajmg.b.30700 Source: PubMed
- [show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Background: Individuals homozygous for the T allele of the MTHFR C677T polymorphism have higher plasma homocysteine concentrations (the phenotype) than those with the CC genotype, which, if pathogenetic, should put them at increased risk of stroke. Since this polymorphism is distributed randomly during gamete formation, its association with stroke should not be biased or confounded. We investigated consistency between the expected odds ratio for stroke among TT homozygotes, extrapolated from genotype–phenotype and phenotype–disease studies, and the observed odds ratio from a meta-analysis of genotype–disease association studies. Methods: We searched MEDLINE and EMBASE up to June, 2003, for all relevant studies on the association between homocysteine concentration and the MTHFR polymorphism, and until December, 2003, for those on the association between the polymorphism and the risk of stroke. Pooled odds ratios and 95% CI were calculated by random-effects and fixed-effects models. Consistency between expected and observed odds ratios was assessed by interaction test. Findings: 111 studies met the selection criteria. Among 15 635 people without cardiovascular disease, the weighted mean difference in homocysteine concentration between TT and CC homozygotes was 1·93 μmol/L (95% CI 1·38 to 2·47). The expected odds ratio for stroke corresponding to this difference based on previous observational studies was 1·20 (1·10 to 1·31). In our genetic meta-analysis (n=13 928) the odds ratio for stroke was 1·26 (1·14 to 1·40) for TT versus CC homozygotes, similar to the expected odds ratio (p=0·29). Consistency between the odds ratios was preserved in analyses by age-group, ethnic background, and geographical location. Interpretation: The observed increase in risk of stroke among individuals homozygous for the MTHFR T allele is close to that predicted from the differences in homocysteine concentration conferred by this variant. This concordance is consistent with a causal relation between homocysteine concentration and stroke.The Lancet 01/2005; · 39.06 Impact Factor -
Article: Homocysteine, methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase and risk of schizophrenia: a meta-analysis.
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Elevated plasma homocysteine concentration has been suggested as a risk factor for schizophrenia, but the results of epidemiological studies have been inconsistent. The most extensively studied genetic variant in the homocysteine metabolism is the 677C>T polymorphism in the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene, resulting in reduced enzyme activity and, subsequently, in elevated homocysteine. A meta-analysis of eight retrospective studies (812 cases and 2113 control subjects) was carried out to examine the association between homocysteine and schizophrenia. In addition, a meta-analysis of 10 studies (2265 cases and 2721 control subjects) on the homozygous (TT) genotype of the MTHFR 677C>T polymorphism was carried out to assess if this association is causal. A 5 micromol/l higher homocysteine level was associated with a 70% (95% confidence interval, CI: 27-129) higher risk of schizophrenia. The TT genotype was associated with a 36% (95% CI: 7-72) higher risk of schizophrenia compared to the CC genotype. The performed meta-analyses showed no evidence of publication bias or excessive influence attributable to any given study. In conclusion, our study provides evidence for an association of homocysteine with schizophrenia. The elevated risk of schizophrenia associated with the homozygous genotype of the MTHFR 677C>T polymorphism provides support for causality between a disturbed homocysteine metabolism and risk of schizophrenia.Molecular Psychiatry 02/2006; 11(2):143-9. · 14.90 Impact Factor - Pharmacological Reviews 01/2000; 51(4):593-628. · 22.35 Impact Factor

Student Takeaways:
Level Pre-Requisites:
None. Though this class is typically most useful for someone planning to build or already working on a site that emphasizes growth from content (whether it's a blog or, say, a company with a blog), there's a lot that's applicable to growth for web products of any kind!
None. A detailed outline of everything (seriously everything) will be sent via email after the class-- just come & drink it all in.
Derek Flanzraich is the founder & ceo of Greatist, a health & fitness media startup on a mission to make better choices easier for everyone. Greatist (yup, you guessed it!) reached over 1M uniques per month in roughly one year and is currently the fastest-growing health & fitness site on the web with nearly 2M uniques/month. Flanzraich graduated from Harvard in 2010, was previously at NBC Universal's Digital Entertainment Strategy & Operations and Clicker.com (acquired by CBS), and has been building media-related organizations that last since his dog-walking business at 10 years old. Besides everything health and wellness, he also loves theme parks & theme bars.

CORPUS CHRISTI — A 46-year-old man attempted to steal a car radio late Thursday and hit the truck's 34-year-old owner with a shovel when he tried to stop the theft, police said.
Corpus Christi police were called to the 1900 block of Peabody Street before midnight after the owner of the truck asked Quincy Vander Gilford Jr. to leave.
Gilford hit the victim in the face, then swung at him with a shovel, police said.
Police said they were able to locate him behind a laundry room and he was charged with suspicion of aggravated robbery, a felony.
Gilford's bail was sent at $65,000 and he was still in the Nueces County Jail as of Friday afternoon.

Autumn orange in color and very hazy. Poured with a short, rich foam that quickly reduced to a wispy cap. Sweet, bready malt aroma with a hint of floral hops beneath. Smooth, delicate feel with a tangy bite that accompanies the carbonation through the middle. Caramel and toasted malt flavors with delicate, earthy, floral hops benath. A bit of tangy, spicy bop bite near the end ushers in a clean finish with a light bready, toasted malt aftertaste.

Superfly Parts
Hi all !
I'm getting a Superfly for Christmas and I am currently working on the bits to go with it. Can anyone tell me.. 1. How long do I make the door tie backs? 2. Do you put a mitten hook on each end of the four pieces? 3. How about cord locks? 4. I've seen how some of you guys use one length of shock cord between the panel pulls, Do you make these detachable? I was wondering if they were left on but not used (when raining) they might wet the tarp through eventually due to them touching the sil constantly? (hope that makes sense) Thanks in advance Jon |

2. I put a mitton hook on one end and a small ring on the other so I can clip them together when not used. 3. I like prussik knots instead of cord locks, but that would work too. LINK TO IMAGES OF PRUSSIK KNOTS 4. You could use mitten hooks at the end of shock cords to make them detachable. However, when it is rainy, that's when I'm closing the doors on the SF. Experimenting with tie outs is fun. Try a few different options until you are happy.

In a typically impassioned article, the chief sports writer of The Times, Simon Barnes, hits out at sport's current obsession with money over excellence, citing the West Indies' miserable tour as a prime example.
So why was the series held? The reason, as Sarwan discovered through his damaged shoulder, was money. Well, I hear you say, all professional sport is about raising money in the end, isn't it? Ah yes, but it's a question of priorities. When raising money is more important than the pursuit and occasional capture of excellence, sport itself is destroyed.

UDC And Project Educate Donate School Supplies

Tuesday, 13 November 2012 09:18 Written by Chris Patterson
Several schools located downtown Kingston have received school supplies courtesy of the Urban Development Corporation (UDC).
The institutions also benefitted from textbook donations from Project Educate to enhance their libraries.
Speaking at the handing over at the UDC's 'Schools in Extravaganza' held on November 9 at Orange Park, Kingston Mall, Minister of State in the Ministry of Tourism and Entertainment, Hon. Damion Crawford, urged the students to make the best use of the gifts.
"People are putting in an investment. They didn't have to do it and you must look at that investment as if I gave you $100,000…therefore when you get the book, use the book because it is ten times $100,000. Each one of them can help you make millions," he said.
Mr. Crawford encouraged the students to focus on their studies and avoid distractions, noting that education is key to upward mobility. He also commended the sponsors for making the donations possible.
Throughout the day, students also benefitted from educational talks and special displays from several exhibitors.
The outreach activity for schools in downtown Kingston and its environs was aimed at facilitating access to educational resources and services in one convenient location.
The UDC partnered with Project Educate Jamaica, a private sector-led initiative aimed at distributing thousands of books to needy schools.

Get off my lawn.
I got a truck and trailer yesterday for Trogg to pick up a Bronco in Indiana. We got lost and we were like 3 or 4 hours late. Plus Chris is a retard and got the wrong phone # so we couldn't call him lol.
We eventually found the house though and Randy was cool about everything. If it's been like days though, I would probably be pissed. Maybe something a little more important than a transmission came up? Life happens sometimes. |

Out for the Summer!
Being a Man of your word means absolutely nothing if you don't have understanding, Patience, and respect for other people (and various other characteristics). This guy being late DOES NOT make him a horrible person. Give him a few days. Maybe his phone died? His truck died? He died? He got the wrong number? Could be a mountain of reasons. But there is no reason to Bad mouth him behind his back. <---That is the lowliest thing you could do, IMO.
Now, If he did just bail and not call you, it's reason to be mad. And I retract what I said in the above paragraph to an extent. Ok, I'm done. |
February 24th, 2008, 03:51 PM | #12 |
I don't understand the wait a few days. We had a time that worked for both of us and we both agreed upon it. I told him that I had plans around noon and the transaction had to be before that. I cancelled my plans that I made to give him the benefit of the doubt. I tried to call him, e-mail him and I PMed him, no answer. I saw on his public profile that he was on this site at 10:24A.M. He was supposed to meet me at 10:00 A.M. At the very least he could have sent a PM stating something came up, I changed my mind or whatever. How am I bad mouthing him behind his back? Isn't this a public forum?
February 24th, 2008, 04:25 PM | #16 | |
Out for the Summer!
I could have swarn that the reason we have feedback is to inform other people of what the person is like in dealing with people. I just don't see the need to Badmouth the guy while all you really need to do is leave negative Feedback. I understand posts like the boggin boy thread and such, but just one mistake? Is it really worth the ? |

Maybe he overslept, or lost your number.
Real measure of credibility comes in how he makes it up. P.S.- I've been on both ends of this at times. If I'm waiting, I give about 15 min to 1/2 hour before leaving. If I'm running late, I try to call- but sometimes I've either lost the number or forgot my phone...but I do try to contact the person as soon as possible.

Actually, from looking at i-trader feedback:
http://www.greatlakes4x4.com/itrader_main.php? It appears 99 out of 100 transactions go without issue. That is pretty damn good if you ask me. I'm sure that number is WAY lower on craigslist or ebay.
