Evaluation of a novel assay for detection of the fetal marker RASSF1A: facilitating improved diagnostic reliability of noninvasive prenatal diagnosis. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 23024794 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
BACKGROUND: Analysis of cell free fetal (cff) DNA in maternal plasma is used routinely for non invasive prenatal diagnosis (NIPD) of fetal sex determination, fetal rhesus D status and some single gene disorders. True positive results rely on detection of the fetal target being analysed. No amplification of the target may be interpreted either as a true negative result or a false negative result due to the absence or very low levels of cffDNA. The hypermethylated RASSF1A promoter has been reported as a universal fetal marker to confirm the presence of cffDNA. Using methylation-sensitive restriction enzymes hypomethylated maternal sequences are digested leaving hypermethylated fetal sequences detectable. Complete digestion of maternal sequences is required to eliminate false positive results. METHODS: cfDNA was extracted from maternal plasma (n = 90) and digested with methylation-sensitive and insensitive restriction enzymes. Analysis of RASSF1A, SRY and DYS14 was performed by real-time PCR. RESULTS: Hypermethylated RASSF1A was amplified for 79 samples (88%) indicating the presence of cffDNA. SRY real time PCR results and fetal sex at delivery were 100% accurate. Eleven samples (12%) had no detectable hypermethylated RASSF1A and 10 of these (91%) had gestational ages less than 7 weeks 2 days. Six of these samples were male at delivery, five had inconclusive results for SRY analysis and one sample had no amplifiable SRY. CONCLUSION: Use of this assay for the detection of hypermethylated RASSF1A as a universal fetal marker has the potential to improve the diagnostic reliability of NIPD for fetal sex determination and single gene disorders. |

Indoor Cycling Training Follow Our Blogs Sponsored Athletes and Teams BCSM In The Media Research and Speaking :: Video
The Boulder Center for Sports Medicine works in partnership with Boulder Valley School District to provide one full-time certified athletic trainer to each of Boulder Valley's six major high schools. The certified athletic trainers provide sports medicine care to over 6000 student athletes each year. They attend practices and games, making sure that student athletes are well prepared and well taken care of in case of injury.
What is an Athletic Trainer? A certified athletic trainer (ATC) is a highly skilled and nationally certified health care provider. ATCs work with physicians and other allied health professionals to provide medical care--both acute and chronic--for all levels of athletes from high school to professional. Certified athletic trainers have, at minimum, a bachelor's degree, usually in athletic training. Athletic trainers study human anatomy and physiology, rehabilitation, biomechanics, exercise physiology, athletic training, nutrition, health and sport psychology. ATCs undergo extensive training in clinical and professional settings. This education and training allows the certified athletic trainer to administer immediate emergency care. Afterwards, a treatment plan for injuries ranging from acute ankle sprains to torn ACLs is developed under the supervision of a team physician. A large focus of the athletic trainer is prevention of injuries and overall conditioning of the athlete.
Your Athletic Fees At Work: Each athlete who participates in High School sports pays a fee and a portion of that fee helps to fund their school's athletic trainer. Here is what you get for your fees:
Support Our Program: The Boulder Community Hospital Foundation is the fund-raising arm of the hospital dedicated to making the High School Outreach program even better!
Charitable gifts to the Foundation are used to provide sports medicine care to Boulder Valley student athletes. Join us in supporting the outreach program and making a positive difference in the lives of others.

Best of Total Beauty: All Our Best Beauty Product Stories in One Place
Estee Lauder Double Matte Oil-Control Makeup SPF 15
Didn't work for my skin
I have normal/oily skin with a tendency to be a little oily in the summer. I tried this foundation to see if it would work any better than my regular one. It didn't and in fact my skin felt like I was wearing makeup. I did not use any excessive amount when applying it. No matter how light a hand I used, I could still "feel" it on my skin. It felt more oily than usual. It did nothing to control oil and worst of all it turned slightly orange when my natural skin oils came out. The shade I chose was a match on my skin in natural daylight, too. The ingredients used in the formulation must not like oil because any areas of shine were the areas that turned orange. Yuck. Luckily, I was able to return it. I'm not very impressed with Estee Lauder products as it is but I gave them another chance with this foundation. It failed. I cannot recommend this product.
October 22, 2011
Bobbi Brown Extra Repair Moisturizing Balm
Good for Night Use
I received a good sized sample of this face balm and have been using it at night as a "layer" over my regular face lotion. It is much too heavy for daytime use on my normal/oily skin. Dry and very dry skin will benefit from this balm. Because it's meant for drier skins I probably won't be purchasing it once the sample is finished. The consistency is very thick and emollient. A little goes a long way.
October 22, 2011
Bobbi Brown Hydrating Eye Cream
Might be Good if It Didn't Burn So
On application this eye cream seemed like it would be great. It was a thick, creamy texture and seemed promising. Not long after application, however, it started a burning and stinging on my eyelids and outer corners of eyes. Another reviewer mentioned a saleslady telling her this occurred because the eye area was too dry. NOT so. The cream simply has an ingredient(s) that irritate some people's skin. I gave this product a few more nights of testing and each night I experienced the same burning/stinging. My eyelids and outer corners were even sensitive and burning throughout the day. I don't have sensitive skin, either. Rather than feeling hydrated, my eye area felt dry and uncomfortable. I do not have dry skin and have not experienced this with any other eye cream I have tried. I have discontinued use (which you should do in this case) and I would not purchase or recommend this product. I especially do not recommend it for someone who has sensitive or dry skin.
October 22, 2011
A lot of hype but not impressive
I had heard a lot of hype about this product so I tried it for myself. I was quite unimpressed. It didn't make any difference in my thick, long, slightly wavy but fine hair. If anything it made it feel coated and flyaway. I didn't overuse the product, either. I use a flatiron on my hair most days and when used with this product the results were not satisfying. The texture of this was thick and goopy and the smell was kind of off putting, also. Maybe it works best on curly, frizzy or coarse hair. It just didn't work for me.
October 19, 2011
Drying and Burning
I tried this product because a few people told me it was good. Maybe for them but NOT for me. First, the texture was so thick and drying I had to really dig in to get some balm out for application. Secondly, it made my lips burn (and they weren't chapped, I was using it for wind protection). I can't imagine this burning would feel good on chapped lips. Third, the smell was a very strong medicinal smell. Not pleasant. I suppose if you have cold sores it would be a good drying agent. As a balm it didn't work at all. I got rid of it and will not be purchasing it again.
October 19, 2011
Laura Mercier Secret Brightener
Average Product
This product may work somewhat for mild under eye discoloration but will make no difference on medium to dark discoloration. I have mild darkness in the inner corners of my eyes and this brightener didn't do anything I would consider great. A quality concealer will work well without brightener. I wanted to try this product but I wasn't impressed enough with it to buy it again.
October 19, 2011
Good but not Best
I got these tweezers in a brow kit I purchased. While they are good and are designed very well, I didn't find them to be as good as my regular brand of tweezers. I do use these tweezers on occasion but I always go back to my other one. These just don't seem to grasp the fine, short hairs like my others do. They also seem a little duller. They are nice to have as an extra pair, however.
October 19, 2011
Laura Mercier Secret Brightening Powder
Nice but not for all Skin Tones
This product is a good idea and it does brighten the eye area - maybe too much. If you have medium, olive, dark or even light olive skin this powder can be a bit too light around the eyes. In a bright or natural sunlight setting it looks obvious and artificial. It has too much white pigment in it. No one wants the reverse raccoon eyes look. If your eye shadow or liner colors are dark this product will intensify the darkness and give a very gothic, almost creepy look. I'd recommend this product for very fair and fair skin as it would work well for them.
October 19, 2011
Good texture, Chemical taste
This gloss is great as far as texture and wear go. It's not sticky or goopy and it applies well and evenly. For a gloss it last well and fades evenly. The taste however is not so great. While no one "eats" gloss, you can't help but get the taste of it sometimes. This gloss tastes like your eating a very cheap artificial vanilla flavoring - very chemical. The smell is also very artificial and off putting. Perhaps in the future the taste/smell can reformulated.
October 19, 2011
Big brush but Big Results
I was a little apprehensive to try this product because of the large brush. Don't be intimidated because the big brush leads to big and great results. Despite the size it applies well and evenly with no clumping. I recommend using a light hand when applying. I have had good results using two to three coats. You may not be used to using such a large mascara spooly but after a couple light handed applications you will be fine. The mascara has a good texture, not too tacky or thin. I have not had any smearing or smudging with this product. Love it!

My grandson is five years old and has been "my" baby since birth. His parents are not now and have never been in the picture. This is not my first time around as I raised 4 kids but I am stuck with this child.
My DGS is ALWAYS right. No matter what you tell him if he has decided he is right there is no way to change his mind. This leads to the belief that he is absolutly the boss. If he wants something and you say no he will argue, scream, yell, insist and say things like I don't love you, You are no longer my mommy you are mean etc but will not stop arguing.. Many a time I have said no and he comes right back with yes or completely ignores me and does what he wants until I physically restrain him from doing so. IE pick him up and escort him out of the room, remove the television in his room after he has turned it back on etc
Normally I would handle these infractions with time out or some other disipline (and do) but he does not equate the disipline with the "crime." and instead tells me I am mean and does NOT accept the punishment so that even a mild "I am busy I will get it in a minute" ends up being a serious fight ending with me taking deep breaths to keep from screaming and him being totally mounthy nasty and disrespectful. His behaviour is not centered on me either. He acts the same way with my hubby, his aunts and uncles, his little friends, people next door etc

Down early in the game because of some fielding errors, the Cougars started hitting in the last innings tying Abington Friends to go into extra innings. Then, we again struggled in the field, letting up four runs. However, with three walks, a towering triple by Josh Cohen, and a solid single by David Gordon, Alec Cohen would send us home victorious with a walk-off single wining the game 10-9. Fantastic job to our starting pitcher Sam Engel, and relief pitch David Gordon. Hopefully the Cougars will be able to continue this success tomorrow.

Group dinner near-ish to Tufts? Places in Medford I'm forgetting about?
I'm looking for suggestions of places for a good group dinner, near Tufts, for a Saturday night (april 16). We'd be eating early (5 or 5:30) and would be out by 7:45, so even a place that gets busy later might be okay.
The ideal setting would be the following:
1) Space for about 20 people to sit together, perhaps even in a private room or corner. Doesn't have to be a single table, but at least adjacent tables would be good.
2) Relatively low budget - those who wanted to eat less and only spend 10-15 dollars could find something.
3) Within 10 minute drive of Tufts
4) Good vegetarian options (Redbones, for example, I think is out)
4) Good food!
Last time we had this gathering, we went to the Bertucci's near Wellington Circle, which was perfect, except for the food, which to me seemed way worse than the Bertucci's food that I remember. But they did have good parking, and had a private nook for us. Maybe it was just an off night?
Other ideas that have been thrown around are Christopher's in Porter, Rudy's in Teele Square.....but I'm not sure if these would be great for 20 people.
Any other suggestions? Especially in Medford, East Arlington, Somerville? Any kind of food could potentially work, as long as the budget and vegetarian options were okay...
Dave MP
Namaskar in Davis Square for excellent Indian food. I have recently had a couple of good meals at Sei Bar (sushi/Japanese/pan-Asian) on Main Street in Medford, and my wife likes Yak and Yeti on Broadway near Ball Square.
I think that if you dine early, any of these could accommodate 20 people. I also like Martsa on Elm, in Davis Square, but that gets busy early.
Pescatore is awesome, but I think Pizzeria Posto on Elm Street in Davis Square is excellent! It has a back room that can be private and the food is fabulous. Great pizzas, salads (huge and delicious) polenta, half orders of pasta for $10.95, substantive appetizers under $10. Food is very good, and portions are ample.

Dave, I've been loving Olde Magoun's Saloon lately ... they do waaaay above average pub grub, are in your general vicinity, and have veggie options. They can't seat you in a private room but you can stake out a corner of the dining room and I know everyone will leave happy. Good beer, friendly servers. You wont be sad there if you want to go pubby for this occasion.

re: zigzag
Magoun's is good, too. Specials of the day - like roast chicken, shepherd's pie, fish tacos, prime rib. Excellent sandwiches and burgers. Entrees all under $15 - Turkey pot pie, fish and chips, jambalaya, steak tips, Mac n Cheese. Nice price.
re: suzysue2
Bistro 5 is very good, but they are not cheap. The Korean restaurant in Medford Square, Chung Ki Wa is another option. Also, the new Salvatore's in Medford Square. They have a private room that used to be the vault where the infamous "The Cops Are Robbers" break-in occurred.

Thanks everyone for the responses so far. Pizza Regina in Wellington might be a good bet - I called today and they do take reservations for groups this large.
I think Sabur, Gran Gusto and Pescatore are good suggestions, but maybe slightly too pricey for this occasion.
I also thought about FuLoon (just ate there for the first time last week) but I think it's slightly too far....maybe not for me, but it might be complicated convincing the rest of the group to go all the way to Malden Center.
Any other ideas would still be appreciated!

re: Dave MP
dave, did you check the sabur prices? that was where i was going to recommend. how about the mexican/salvadorean place behind Porter Sq- Tacos Lupita? Maybe they would cordon off some tables for your group.(sorry, i can't remember if you are alrdy one of the champions of this place.)
and what about vinnie's?
re: Science Chick
Had a fine meal at Pescatore on Friday, but did notice that the prices have upticked a bit - the seafood amalfi which I always thought was undervalued at $17 is now past the magical $20 barrier at $21. Given the amount of shrimp, scallops and lobster you typically get in that dish, not unreasonable, but may cause a little sticker shock for some in the nabe.
If you had any flexibility on time, I think Istanbul'lu would be perfect for you, chow-wise. Small plates in your price range and veggie offerings. It's so small though that you would have to go at a special time, I would think. Maybe not....
What about Tu y Yo? Haven't been in a while... The Foundry also has a lot of space at the back that would accommodate and lower-priced sandwiches and such. Also the Flatbread Pizza / Sacco Bowl Haven, and the Middle-Eastern place on Mass. Ave. which I cannot remember at the moment...ugh.
How about Fuloon in Malden? It's about 10-15 mins drive, can cater to a modest budget, ideal for groups. I think vegetarians should find something on the menu, but note that many 'veggie' dishes, which might be meat free on a westernized chinese menu, do indeed, contain meat.
Of course, if you go, you should avoid the westernized dishes, and stick mostly to the sichuan dishes and other specialities.
I would suggest Sabur in Teele Square. They have several vegetarian options and they have options under $20. It is a very nice atmosphere, good food and could accomodate 20 people. I have actually had dinner there with a large group and it was very enjoyable.

bike that will fit me
I am a 6'4 200 pound 17 year old looking for a downhilll/freeride rig that will fit me. i have found almost none that will fit
Any of the lg/xl frames should work. Have you cheched out the large Kona Stinky Nine or Stinky Primo?
An 19" frame would work for you as a freeride bike since you want it to be a little more nimble. If you will be doing more dh then I would say get a 20" or 21" frame.
2Wheel Warrior
I got a few ideas for you WNCbiker, I'm 2" shorter and ten pounds lighter and I ride a 2002 Giant AC1, its a 19" frame, 6" rear travel, hayes hydro, raceface cranks, and a bunch more.
Giant makes a bunch of big bikes, The AC1 and AC2 and very good DH/Freeride bikes. The highest I've dropped on mine is a fifteen foot drop(which was very freaky) and been doing 5' to 10' foot jumps constantly. A bunch of us set up a jump and were getting 8' air high and almost 20' distance down a hill. I've put my AC1 threw alot and it hasn't talked back yet.
Ellsworth makes a Joker and a Joker SL (anodized vs. un-anodized) which is 7" rear travel(new this year). My Best-friend has one of these, I've seen him in action on the thing its crazy. This guy is "not right in the head" he has done many amazing things on it and only broken his main pivot bolt on it(no frame damage).
check either company out they make good bikes and will take the thrashing that us big guys can dish out!!
:beer: :) :beer:
I like giant seeing that I currently ride one so I will have to check that out. can they be pedaled up hill easily?
I agree with all of you...I'm 6'2" and if you're going to be doing more DH the giant DH comp large fits great! I also have an AC in the 18.5 size...fit's pretty nice too...could use a little extra in the seat post area for all around riding...but other than that...top tube lenght and everything is great! The Kona's are really nice too! Check out Foes too...if you have the cash...their large would fit pretty well too.
2Wheel Warrior
Well the first time I got on my AC1 it felt like a tank, but after like two days I was totaly used to it, it pedals up hill pretty good, not as fast as people on hardtails but if your a burly guy than its no problem.
is the ac1 considered a free ride bike?
All depends on what you consider freeride...ugg, not gonna start that topic again...ha ha. Ya it's considerd a freeride bike, I use mine for more all around riding, like 6foot drops and some real aggresive trail riding.....now a 15ft drop on it...scary! I give 2wheel warrior a big up for that! The AC will take pretty much anything you through at it.....and as much as people ***** about Rock shox, I have it on both ends of the bike(AC2)...and not a problem yet! The AC isn't light by anymeans...so she's a little slow uphill, but if you aren't racin XC does it really matter?

Please keep in mind dh and freeride rigs fit small. At 6'4 there are tonnes of frames that suit your size. You just have to realize it shouldn't/can't fit like a xc bike. I can't think of a single bike I don't fit or that doesn't make a frame that fits and I am 6'5 and 250 :)
Kona Stinky
Giant AC
Norco A-line (and any of the same family)
I could go on but really t should fit small in order to take the hits and protect dangly bits :)
Actually DH frames should fit a bit bigger than a freeride frame. If you're to crunched on a DH frame you wont be able to pedal/handle (you feel like the bike is making your work for it, not it work for you) it as well....freeride you need more clearance to toss the bike around for bigger hits, and things of that nature. Look at most of the Pro DHr's and see how their bikes fit them!
I used to ride a medium DH frame and it was to small for me....and it held me back alot! I've since gone to a large and man I'm ready to whoop some arss! LOL . I ride a smaller frame(medium) in my freeride frame so that I can hit drops much easier...less bike to have to toss around.
Well that didn't come out exactly how it should have...but it's the best I could do with typing...man it's hard to type exactly what I'm thinking..uggg...ha ha ha.
I hope that helped a little more? :beer:

A distinguished marksman for the US Marine Corps who trained his fellow Marines in pistol and rifle shooting, Sergeant Matt Foster now helms a team of coed firearms instructors. Teaching classes such as the NRA Basic Pistol Shooting Course, an state pistol-permit class, and a women's-only session, the instructors rely on a TPI training method—an acronym for Total Participant Involvement—that emphasizes one-on-training and encourages students to go at their own pace to maximize skill retention.
Since 1962, the experienced and USPA-certified instructors at Connecticut Parachutists, Inc have helped new and experienced skydivers foster a love for skydiving. Two miles above the plush green landing area, the professionals harness themselves to novice divers for tandem jumps, and then leap from the bellies of prop planes as spectators and envious penguins look on from an open landing area. The instructors can also help their students obtain skydiving certification, learn to perform accelerated free falls, and make solo dives.
In addition to training new cloud kickers, Connecticut Parachutists, Inc also accommodates seasoned skydivers with facilities for members. Their turbine Twin Otter elevates members for as many jumps as possible, and a clubhouse helps jumpers wind down with a shower and video debriefing area. The skydiving haven also plays host to special events such as jump nights and Q&As with famous parachutes.
In their 85th season, the Harlem Globetrotters have entertained millions of parents, children, and general basketball admirers with a unique brand of athletic precision and showmanship. For their latest 4 Times the Fun North American tour, the Globetrotters will add new 4-point shot spots located 35 feet from the basket, which is 12 feet farther than the official 3-point line but several thousand miles closer than the prime meridian.
Mal-sun Marletto has dedicated decades to the sport of fencing. A passion of hers since the age of 10, Mal-Sun has not only competed in five countries, but she's also a World Cup competitor and Connecticut Women's Champion in foil, épée, and saber. At Farmington Valley Fencing Academy, where she is both owner and head coach, Mal-sun draws on her vast experience and US Fencing Coaches Association–certification to instruct students of all ages and skill levels. She designed a variety of programs and membership packages that include instruction in foil, saber, and épée, and include additional perks such as discounts on equipment and gear.
Edward and Kristine Mele were driving their son to baseball practice one day when a downpour caused the team to relocate to indoor batting cages. This serendipitous change led the Mele family past Sand Trap Mini Golf, which was derelict and for sale. Within a week, the Meles owned the course. Gathering up their sons, daughters, siblings, and friends, the couple renovated the grounds, removing the debris and haunted windmills that littered the place. Today, Sand Trap's gleaming 18-hole course draws families and friends outdoors to revel in spirited competition. As they progress through the course, Coca-Cola beverages and Blue Bunny ice cream help visitors keep cool and stop them from burrowing into a bunker hidden beneath the 18th hole.
A comprehensive guide to attractions and things to do.

Anti-Alabama t-shirt references Jerry Sandusky case, has unfortunate grammar error
Jun 23, 2012, 10:31 AM EST
The hatred between Alabama and LSU in college sports goes back decades and it's not surprising to see some people try to cash in on that rivalry with some fan-made apparel.
The latest anti-Alabama shirt to hit the shelves references the Jerry Sandusky child sexual abuse case for some added shock value for anyone who reads the shirt.
However, an unfortunate grammar mistake on the apparel causes it to say something that the maker probably didn't intend for it to say:
The mix-up between "then" and "than" causes the shirt to say that the person would shower at Penn State and root for the Alabama Crimson Tide.

The most unimaginitive t-shirt I've seen in a while. Lame as hell.
- alligatorsnapper - Jun 23, 2012 at 1:09 PM
rolling…you are being kind. A tasteless, pitiful, and classless expression (and I am a huge partisan fan of LSU). We still have a somewhat free country and they have the right to make such a shirt, but it is surely a poor excuse for a shirt and grammatically incorrect.

Day after day in Syria, people are being killed, but sometimes it takes a weekend like this past one to remind us just how horrifying the conflict is. Government troops were battling rebels were for control of Aleppo, Syria's largest such city. And as they fought, flames spred through a centuries-old market, burning huge sections to the ground.

The role of James Bond has been played by six different actors in the Bond film franchise that started in 1962. Each actor brought his own strengths to the rakish British spy, from brooding physicality (Sean Connery, Daniel Craig) to smooth charm (Roger Moore, Pierce Brosnan).
For every actor who has portrayed Bond, there are fans who think he defined the character, and that the others merely toiled in his shadow. Craig will try to solidify his place in the Bond pantheon next month when the franchise releases its 23rd film, Skyfall.

- Smarter skiesDiscover five innovations that could help meet industry growth in a sustainable way
- The concept plane
Since its service entry in 2010, the world's most modern mid-size freighter – Airbus' A330-200F – has established itself by providing reliable, flexible and profitable operations to all continents.
Major cargo carriers around the world have turned to the A330-200F for long-haul and regional missions as the aircraft has attained a reliability rate of more than 99.6 per cent and in-service utilisation up to 400 flight hours per month.
Customers have praised the A330-200F for its outstanding flexibility, which is further enhanced by the freighter's full operational commonality with Airbus' fly-by-wire family of single-aisle and widebody jetliners. In addition, the A330-200F's large main-deck cargo door allows the aircraft to accept all commonly-used pallets and containers, enabling the transport of a full range of cargo – from high-value consumer goods to express packages and perishables.
Ideally suited to the rapidly changing market conditions, the A330-200F is shaping the future of air cargo transport. The flexible mid-sized aircraft offers operators an adaptable cargo strategy with up to 35 per cent lower operating costs per tonne compared to larger freighters, as well as optimised load factors.
Related Video
A330-200F operations: sharing customers' experience. Since entering service in 2010, the A330-200F has demonstrated its attractiveness as a flexible, reliable and profitable freighter. This video clip underscores the A330-200F's popularity with its operators, and includes comments from representatives of Etihad Airways, Etihad Crystal Cargo and Hong Kong Airlines.
An advanced solution
As a new-generation freighter derived from Airbus' proven A330 jetliner family, the A330-200F offers highly efficient operation with less noise and emissions than the ageing fleets of mid-sized cargo aircraft used in worldwide service today.
In addition to offering better payload, range and economics than previous-generation freighters in its class, the A330-200F also provides the full benefits of operational commonality with Airbus' fly-by-wire family of single-aisle and widebody jetliners.
It represents an ideal replacement for obsolete first-generation widebody freighters, and also provides airlines with a highly efficient all-cargo solution to replace services of passenger and cargo "combi" aircraft.
Since entering service in 2010, the A330-200F has demonstrated its attractiveness as a flexible, reliable and profitable freighter for the cargo operators, aircraft leasing companies and financial organisations that have ordered the aircraft around the globe.
Performance and economics
With the capacity and range to profitably serve growing global cargo markets, the A330-200F offers significant opportunities to grow frequencies in underserved markets at no additional cost per tonne.
The A330-200F flies 20 per cent further and has a cost per tonne 13 per cent lower than its direct competitor. It is capable of carrying 70 tonnes of payload up to 4,000 nm.
High versatility
Overall flexibility has been enhanced with the introduction of Airbus' versatile main-deck cargo loading system, which can accommodate all industry-standard containers and pallets – enabling operators to serve the freight lift needs of varying markets.
The A330-200F can transport up to 23 side-by-side pallets on its main deck, with flexibility for additional arrangements such as single-row loading of 16 pallets, and a mix of 9 AMA containers with four pallets. The spacious lower-deck cargo hold accepts up to 26 LD3 containers, plus 19.7 cubic metres of bulk cargo.
Cost-reducing technologies
This modern cargo jetliner utilises a wide range of innovations that make it the most economical and ecological freighter in service today. Among these cost-reducing features are the aircraft's reinforced fuselage and doors, which increase shear and bending/running loads; its use of the latest in eco-efficient engine technologies for reduced CO2 emissions and noise levels; along with a "glass cockpit" and advanced navigation systems for enhanced flight operations.

Xavier Wins Tour Opener |
School Age - Boys | ||||||
The New-York team, ranked #2 by RUGBYMag among all single-school teams, is on a three-match tour that will see them play #15 HS club SFGG, #1 single-school team Jesuit, and #11 club Marin.
The two teams battled fairly evenly in the first half. SFGG had the measure of the scrums, and through the game stole a few Xavier put-ins, and they enjoyed plenty of possession. But Xavier defended superbly and punished SFGG mistakes ruthlessly. Xavier led 19-7 at halftime, and then exploded for 34 points to lead 53-7, before SFGG scored twice to make it 53-17. SFGG's player of the game was prop Kevin Sullivan, while Xavier had superb games from their halfback combo of Ryan McDade and Jimmy Wolfer. Both did very well to direct the Xavier attack. They used wing Brendan McCabe with effectiveness when bringing him up the middle. "It was a very physical match, but our boys played with confidence, stuck to pattern and played very good team defense against a big, talented, athletic team," said Xavier Coach Joe Sweeney. Sweeney said it was Xavier's best performance yet, but they will likely have to raise their game when they face Jesuit on Monday. SFGG Coach Mateo Medrano said SFGG did a lot of good things, "but when we had good possession, we couldn't convert." |

When getting dressed you should always try to have something in your outfit make a statement. This statement can be a vivid print, ruffles, glitz, a great pair of shoes, a head accessory, a handbag, or jewelry. If you want to make your statement with jewelry, a necklace or earrings are a good way to do so. Both of these items are going to be noticed since most attention for others is to your face or neck area.
One of the biggest trends this fall is fringe necklaces! Unlike fringe clothing where the material used is a light fabric that moves and flows easily fringe jewelry is made of metal most of the time so it is not going to move as much but definitely makes the same statement!

Positive Experience
Average Interview
I applied online and the process took a day - interviewed at WellPoint in May 2011.
Interview Details – I applied online and received a call to schedule an interview an interview the other day. HR lady was very nice and asked me why I leave current position and apply for Wellpoint. She also asked my future career goal, my weakness and strength. It went around 15 minutes. at the end of the interview, she told me there will be another phone interview by hiring manager and was followed up by scheduling the time.

Difficult Interview
The process took 1+ week - interviewed at WellPoint in June 2011.
Interview Details – Applied online and also via an internal employee referral. HR recruiter based in Los Angeles made initial contact and asked standard HR questions. Most importantly, she asked salary requirements. I am a new PhD graduate and asked for $80K. She said that starting salary for this position is $70K, but obviously negotiable because I made it to the next round of four. Interview 2 consisted of a 1:1 phone interview with a research manager. He was pleasant and focused on my resume content. He particularly wanted to hear about the skills used or gained related to each of my previous positions. The interviewer also asked about previous experience with medical claims databases and SAS knowledge. Interview 3 was a "green" interview. It's a webcam interview with three other interviewers. They send you a webcam if you don't own one and the service tests it with you a day or two before the interview. All three interviewers were senior researchers (research scientist/manager). The focus was on research skills and knowledge with an occasional HR question. The final interview -- they fly you in to Wilmington, DE and pay for hotel, cab, flight, and meals. It was three sessions. The first was with the HR manager about benefits, etc. The second with the 1:1 interviewer from days previous (there was supposed to be a second person from the green interview but she couldn't make it). The third interview was with a different research manager and a research manager from the "green" interview. All these mini-sessions focused on skill sets and questions that tested your knowledge of them.
Throughout the process, I felt they were a bit cold. They work remotely and this was a position for their satellite office where I would have been the only member of my team among the other folks. Communication is via webcam, phone and email. I was hesitant about this structure and voiced it in my final interview, but they guaranteed seamless communication and collaboration.
They were great about accelerating the interview process. I had an offer on the table and needed to make a decision ASAP.
After making it to the in-person interview, they didn't hire me. They're cold nature re-confirmed by their mass-style rejection email. I would think at that level, they would have had the courtesy to personalize the rejection. No hard feelings though because I went with the job that I really wanted anyway.

The ever-increasing requirements of product quality and reliability demand more efficient measuring and testing methods. Developed in the past decade, shearography--also called speckle pattern shearing interferometry--is a coherent-optical measuring and testing method, similar to holographic interferometry. This book describes the development of second-generation digital shearography, which is especially effective in nondestructive testing, strain measurement, and vibration analysis due to its relative insensitivity to environmental disturbances.
The aim of this book is to present the shearographic method of strain analysis. The availability of instruments such as the laser and laser diodes and the personal computer itself in conjunction with the development of new methods and more sophisticated interferometric and evaluating techniques have greatly increased the range of problems for which digital shearography is the most viable means for investigating prototypes.
The author has endeavored to present the subject in such a manner that the book will meet the requirements of the beginner as well as being of assistance to the experienced research worker.
The author takes this opportunity to express his appreciation for the laboratory assistance of Dr.-Ing. M. Schuth, Dr.-Ing. L.X. Yang, Labor-Ing. Ing. grad. G. Kupfer, Dipl.-Ing. F. Vossing and Dipl.-Ing. P. Mackel, who wrote Sections 9.1 - 9.4. The author also wishes to express his gratitude to the mechanical and electronic workshops of University Gh Kassel for manufacturing the precision devices.
The author sincerely appreciates the help of Mrs. W. Barte in the careful preparation of the manuscript and its continuous revision and completion, as well as the design office of the University Gh Kassel for the figures and graphics.

Wenger Says Transfers Still Possible but Financial Fair Play Appears a Joke
Description:Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger said on Friday (August 2) that he is still keen to sign Uruguayan striker Luis Suarez, even though Liverpool have rejected two offers from the Gunners. Suarez, 26, scored 29 goals for Liverpool in all competitions last season, but is currently four matches into a 10-game ban for biting Chelsea's Branislav Ivanovic in a Premier League match at Anfield last April.

By Tim Conneally
By Tim Conneally, BetanewsAmazon on Monday pre-released a software update for Kindle e-readers running the 3.0 software which updates the interface for magazines and newspapers, adds a quick review section at the end of each book, and adds page numbers that match Kindle books with their print counterparts.This update is very minor, and the only new feature that takes effect immediately in all content is the "before you go" review section. Here, when you reach the end of a book, you're presented with the option to review your book, or send out a tweet announcing that you just completed the book.The addition of "real page numbers" has to be added to each book individually, and we unfortunately had no books that had been numbered at our disposal to check out. Amazon is only doing this for books with a print counterpart, and so far, they have been added to several thousand books, including the top 100 best-selling Kindle books. "Our customers have told us they want real page numbers that match the page numbers in print books so they can easily reference and cite passages, and read alongside others in a book club or class," said Amazon's Kindle blog today.These minor updates, along with the with a recent revision to kindle.amazon.com which went live late last week, are further measures intended to make Kindle reading a more social activity.The update to the Kindle library page lets users make their highlights and notes browsable by friends and individuals, or the general public. For example, have a look at my notes and highlights for The Comeback by Consumer Electronics Association president and CEO Gary Shapiro. These are presented in a very simple linear fashion with any notes I added underneath as subscript. (I spoke to Mr. Shapiro about his book this evening, and we talked about some of the quotations in my highlights list, and I'll be posting a story about it tomorrow, so give it a scan!)Now that Kindle books can be loaned to other users, equally included in book clubs and classrooms, shared on a dedicated Kindle site or on social networks, the format has come a long way toward complete integration into the social bookworm's life. Now if we could just hand write in the margins…Copyright Betanews, Inc. 2010

Rants & Raves
Getting Unwired
I must challenge Brendan I. Koerner's analysis of the economics of Wi-Fi ("The Long Road to Internet Nirvana," Wired 10.10). The price of unwiring public space is much lower than he estimates, making free Wi-Fi networks cost-effective. The Bryant Park Wireless Network, and the T1 that connects it to AT&T's IP backbone, costs less to run than the park spends on trash bags or rat poison.
With prices this low, and the much greater attraction of open hot spots versus closed, fee-based ones, it is quickly becoming a no-brainer for the real estate industry to treat wireless broadband as an amenity like light. There are good reasons why ISPs don't own the wired infrastructure scattered throughout the world's cities. Installing it was expensive and time-consuming, and it's better understood by electrical contractors than dotcom charlatans. Tomorrow's wireless infrastructure is evolving along the same path – a long road indeed.
Anthony Townsend
New York, New York
A Free Lesson in Wi-Finomics
Nicholas Negroponte might be right when he prophesies ubiquitous wireless Internet connections and viral telecommunications in "Being Wireless" (Wired 10.10). But a quick analysis suggests this scenario is unlikely. For simplicity, let's look at one residential street with 10 houses in Suburbia, USA. During Negroponte's transition, we go from one paying broadband house (10 percent penetration) to six or eight broadband houses (60 to 80 percent penetration), all with wide-open access points and routers. This makes the ISPs very happy. Then certain households decide they don't need to spend $40 a month when they can bum off their neighbor, so we end up with three broadband houses (30 percent penetration). What do the ISPs do? You got it – they switch from unlimited plans to metered ones, and those three remaining access points voluntarily go dark. What some futurists seem to forget is that nothing is free.

One Small Step for Bots
Clive Thompson wrote in "Slaves to Our Machines" (Wired 10.10) that humans augment machine intelligence, not the other way around.
One day I was running through the woods in EverQuest, trying to avoid being killed by other players, and I found myself emulating the footfalls of the AI-driven nonplayer characters who also run around there: "If I sound like a bot, they'll think I'm a bot, and they won't come after me." This made me think: Humans have distinct incentives to follow social norms. If we populate our social environment with AI bots, we will increasingly act like them, until human behavior is indistinguishable from AI. The Turing test will be tackled not because of advances in AI, but because most humans will not want to be weirdos in a world of bots. The sentence that first passes Turing muster will not be "Wagner's anti-Semitism destroyed his art" but rather "d00d, u download good mods b4 ne1."

NASA geeks and astronauts were able to effectively manage the Apollo 13 crisis because they were so familiar with the system that failed. The challenge for systems designers should not be to reduce the human presence to that of a cog or to automate the human out of the loop. Instead, the goal should be to design structures that actively engage the senses and intellect, providing humans with the knowledge necessary to safely and effectively manage problems in ever more complicated systems.

Shooting Blanks
Reading "The Plot to Kill the Carp" (Wired 10.10) brought back an attempt 40 years ago to limit insect populations by releasing radiation-sterilized males, resulting in infertile eggs. We still have too many flies and mosquitoes today. Good luck with the
carp shoot.

Porn Innocent
Of course those directly engaged in sexually abusing children should be prosecuted ("The United States of America v. Adam Vaughn," Wired 10.10).
To a proportional degree, those who support such activities by purchasing the images made from the abuse might also be a subject of law. But mere possession does not mean that support was provided. One mouseclick not associated with a financial transaction should not bring punishment, let alone decades of prison time. Even if financial support is actually provided to an abuser through a purchase, a proportional punishment ought to be a proportional fine, not years of imprisonment.
Charles Peterson
San Antonio, Texas
Steve Silberman's article about Adam Vaughn raises one very important point: Where does responsibility begin for following Web links that eventually lead to illegal material?
I'm trying to muster sympathy for Vaughn, but I find it hard to believe that Silberman chose him as poster boy for his crusade. The author appears to gloss over the points that Vaughn 1) went to the Candyman site himself; 2) lingered there and followed links; and 3) downloaded images from a site he must have known was illegal.
Silberman makes light of the point that Vaughn accessed the material by "right-click, Save As" and then later sifted through it. That constitutes not only free will and intent but also a highly conscious and selective engagement in the process. Saying "Like his namesake in the Old Testament, Adam was curious" is little defense, and an intelligent man like Silberman should know that.

The statement "Some offenders have been sent to jail for 'possessing' images that only a computer-forensics technician can see" highlights a few problems. When my teenage daughter searches for Britney Spears, hundreds of pop-up windows containing porn appear. Do any of them contain women under 18? Porn spam gets sent to me all the time, but I never request it. Even if I delete it immediately, there are traces on my PC. Also, some sick people delight in posting porn to legitimate newsgroups with misleading titles like "How to buy a house," hoping others will look at it inadvertently. And what if you buy a used computer on eBay? Even if the files are erased, a computer-forensics technician can see them.

Lawrence Lessig is at the forefront of a monumental fight ("The Great Liberator," Wired 10.10). If corporations are allowed to rule the Internet – the greatest means of communication ever conceived – future generations will lose out on untold resources and means of expressing themselves. Lessig understands the extreme importance of this mission, despite his own introspective misgivings, and I for one am thankful that he's fighting the good fight.
Jim Ray
Chicago, Illinois
In Steven Levy's article on Lawrence Lessig, Napster is called a "promising experiment." There was nothing promising or experimental about Napster. When the laws that protect ownership of property, intellectual or otherwise, are thrown out, the primary force that drives our society is eliminated. For most of us, Napster was wonderful because it hurt only artists and the entertainment industry while allowing the rest of us to steal legally. Are you willing to work for free?

The Yamaha FZR400 was always over-shadowed by the class-leading Hondas, both the CBR and V4 NC30 and NC35s, and, on track, was a little behind Kawasaki's ZXR400 for sheer speed. However, the rev-happy Yamaha FZR400RR attracted the hooligans by the bucket load, drawn to the high-revving engine, sharp handling and high corner speed. And, as it was also always considerably ...
399cc, 60bhp, 128mph, Insurance group 10
The Honda VFR400R, or NC30 as it's commonly known, is effectively a 400cc version of the iconic VFR750R (RC30) and as such is a cheaper alternative to the RVF400R which succeeded it in 1994. It has excellent handling, still looks good and a usable engine for road and track, although it's not as quick flat out as some of the ...

The Honda CB400 Super Four, like most 400cc grey imports, is a junior, Japan-only derivative of a larger model, in this case the CB1000 'Big One'. As such it's a chunky, good-looking, well-equipped roadster that's both novice-friendly, reasonably versatile and sporty, too. Expect usual grey import foibles (secondhand, sometimes difficult parts/servicing availability); don't expect giant slaying performance. Cute, likeable and ...
400cc, 60.6bhp, 127mph, Insurance group 10
Suzuki's GSX-R400 is easily mistakable for its larger brother the 750 with its distinctive slingshot looks and aluminum frame. Not as sought after as the other Japanese 400cc imports, but that keep prices low and means you can grab a bargain. Handling is excellent handling, but the engine requires a thrashing as its all revs, but it's still rewarding to ...
398cc, 31bhp, 94mph, Insurance group 9
Strictly speaking, the BROS 400 is heavy, underpowered and outdated. But the cheap grey imports are surprisingly nice to ride – they're well balanced, steer well and the engine is flexible, torquey and characterful given its 33bhp output. That also makes it legal for new riders on a restricted licence.
248cc, 21bhp, 80mph, Insurance group 6
The Yamaha XV250S Virago is a trusty, reliable and easy to ride option on which to hone your biking skills. If you fancy a big cruiser later on, the Yamaha XV250S Virago is a great place to start: it's got the looks and appears bigger than a 250, so you won't feel left out down at the Ace. The Yamaha ...
249cc, 21bhp, 80mph, Insurance group 7
When the XV250S Virago was discontinued, the new Yamaha XVS250 Drag Star replaced it. They're very similar and that's good news for owners: the long-running Virago branch of the Yamaha family has a great reputation. The little Yamaha XVS250 Drag Star is just as good and, if your heart's set on a smaller capacity cruiser, you'll find it hard to ...
499cc, 57bhp, 120mph, Insurance group 9
The Honda CB500 is a first big motorcycle you'll never want to sell. It's huge fun because it's so confidence-inspiring, meaning you can take it anywhere and it'll make you feel you can push your limits. Very competent: commuters and couriers love Honda CB500s for their reliability and all-round, top-notch performance. In all aspects, the Honda CB500's a winner.
248cc, 20bhp, 81mph, Insurance group 7
The Gas Gas Pampera 250 MK III is one of the great trail motorcycles of modern times. It's particularly suitable for shorties and more inexperienced riders, thanks to its combination of easy manners and low seat height (for a trail bike). Spanish factory Gas Gas has a good history of making quality off-roaders and they have a string of world titles ...
498cc, 59bhp, 125mph, Insurance group 8
Long in the tooth but surprisingly fast and easy to live with, the Kawasaki GPZ500S's a true and reliable all-rounder. The Kawasaki GPZ500S is a prime candidate for a "first big bike" and one with the performance and handling to tempt you to hold on to it after rivals have lost their (underpowered) appeal.

Bowls don't quite "fit"
Best Uses
The small bowls that are sold to go with the dish holder don't fall through the holes, but almost. This does not truly lift the bowls the 4" off the ground, the bowls actually sit about 1 1/2" off the ground. It looks good, but doesn't work as well as others I have owned in the past.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
