Judged: 1 1 1 Walmart CEO Michael Duke's $35 million salary, when converted to an hourly wage, worked out to $16,826.92. By comparison, at a Walmart store planned for the Windy City's Pullman neighborhood, new employees to be paid $8.75 an hour would gross $13,650 a year. Smith's numbers could be a bit off. Equilar, an executive compensation research firm, calculates that Duke earned just south of $20 million in 2009 and $28 million in 2008, not counting millions of dollars in potential performance awards. But the alderman argued that there's still a "sad" contrast between Duke's compensation and the wages of his employees. "How can you go to bed at night and sleep knowing you make this kind of money and the people working for you can hardly buy a package of beans and rice?" It's greed like this that ruined our country.This would be Romney's world if he was to be elected... LQQK HERE: http://abcnews.go.com/Business/walmart-ceo-pa... |
Judged: 1 1 1 . . the facts . . Obamas death panel will decide. . . . IPAB: President Obama's NICE Way To Ration Care To Seniors . . Can we predict the future of IPAB? Over a decade ago, Britain set up its National Institute of Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE), a group of appointees whose pronouncements limit medication and technology usage based on costs. Despite the endless complaints and numerous lawsuits by doctors and citizen groups in Britain, NICE served as the model upon which IPAB was based. A Board of appointees like the IPAB, its role is to reduce health spending. NICE has become a rationing Board, holding costs down by limiting available treatments. Ninety percent of Englands hospital trusts are now rationing care by following NICEs long list of recommendations that includes stopping access to drugs that prolong life or cure breast cancer, stomach cancer, kidney cancer, macular degeneration (causing progressive blindness), multiple myeloma, rheumatoid arthritis, early Alzheimers disease, MS, and osteoporosis that causes hip fractures and premature death. NICE also restricts hip and knee replacements, cataract surgery, procedures for back pain, infertility, steroid injections and cancer screening like PAP smears. David Stout of the NHS Confederation representing primary care trusts explained to the BBC that the NHS faces considerable financial pressures and scarce resources have to be used as effectively as possible. Under NICE, treatments are routinely refused on the grounds of limited resources and the need to make decisions based not on individuals or familys choice, but on the governments assessment of the benefit. ////////// run from the facts |

Specializing in the science and treatment of venous disease
Many treatments are available for conditions resulting from venous disease. Treatments range from conservative therapy (compression stockings, elevation, over-the-counter pain medication) to minor outpatient procedures. Generally, conservative therapy is attempted first, and if this does not provide adequate relief, more definitive treatments are advised.
In most cases, smaller veins are usually treated by injections (sclerotherapy) while larger veins are sealed closed with a laser (endovenous laser ablation) or removed. Your Duke Vein Clinic doctor will tailor a treatment plan specifically for your veins.
A number of new techniques and devices have made treatment simpler, are more effective, and have expanded the treatment options for patients with venous disease.
Almost all the treatments for venous disease are minimally invasive and are performed in the office setting without general anesthesia. New techniques include: sclerotherapy, endovenous laser ablation, radiofrequency ablation, and CoolTouch cutaneous laser -- all of which are performed at the Duke Vein Clinic.
Almost all of the new techniques are aimed at sealing the vein closed. Because there is a chance after any treatment that the treated vein may reopen, pressure is always applied to the treated vein, either by a small ball of gauze and tape or a compression stocking.
The optimal time of post treatment compression depends on the size and length of the vein treated. This extra post-treatment pressure helps the vein remain compressed closed until it permanently seals closed with scar.
After treatment, veins may become slightly inflamed and may be tender or bruised for a few days. However, after a few months they are eventually absorbed by the body.
Because most people have more than one type of varicose vein, they usually require more than one type of treatment for satisfactory results. For instance, someone may require both endovenous ablation and sclerotherapy.
Because only a few veins can be treated at one time, most people require several clinic visits for a series of treatments, each spaced several weeks apart.
Most varicose veins take years to form, so for more advanced cases, it may take months to effectively treat them.
Since most insurance companies (see our insurance page) require a trial of compression stockings before they will approve treatment, and since the insurance companies then allow one to three months for their approval process, it may be three to six months before definitive treatment is even started.
Since multiple treatment types, usually in series, are frequently required, once treatment has started, it may take several months before treatment is completed.

Milestones of European Integration: Which matters most for Export Openness?
The European integration process has removed barriers to trade within Europe. We analyze which integration step has most profoundly influenced the trending behavior of export openness. We endogenously determine the single most decisive break in the trend, account for strong cross-country heterogeneity and propose a new measure for the strength of trend breaks. Highly open economies gain from both, monetary and real integration. In sharp contrast, less open economies do not benefit from real integration and even suffer from monetary integration. The major milestones for France, Germany, Italy and the Netherlands are the Euro introduction, the Maastricht Treaty, the Exchange Rate Mechanism I and the merge of EFTA and EEC to the European Economic Area, respectively. Our empirical results have important implications for inner-European economic development, as export openness feeds back into growth, unemployment and income convergence.Download Info

You would be forgiven for thinking that it would have happened sooner, given that the Drobo devices have been so popular with Apple users in general. There are many creative professionals already using Drobo raid storage devices for working with video and high-end photography. Seeing as so many creative professionals prefer to use Macintosh computers, just by joining the dots together you would expect Drobo to have a range of Thunderbolt storage devices available pretty quickly. Data Robotics, Drobo finally announced there will be a Thunderbolt raid Drobo style.
Thunderbolt storage devices – Drobo review
Drobo have announced the Drobo 5D and the Drobo Mini in a June Drobo 2012 event. With the same BeyondRAID technology that gives you single or dual drive redundancy and the ability to add or hot swap drives in the event of hard drive failures. I have one of the pre Thunderbolt storage devices and it has worked extremely well for protecting my important data files. It can only be a good thing to finally have Drobo and Thunderbolt technology available in the same device.
Faster and faster Thunderbolt raid Drobo
In the same way that you can buy hard drives that have some solid state memory, you can add high-performance flash to accelerate performance of the Drobo storage array. It is a new industry standard mSATA SSD that will accelerate performance of the Drobo Thunderbolt storage devices. This extra memory is also there to give extra protection for the data as it is passed through to the magnetic disk-based drives.
Thunderbolt raid Drobo is battery protected
If the power to the drive is suddenly cut, there is a battery which will keep the Drobo alive long enough for data to be written to non-volatile storage. This is extremely important for making sure your vital data is kept completely safe. The battery has been designed to recharge itself and last for the lifetime of the Drobo Thunderbolt storage device.
Drobo Thunderbolt storage devices – Finally! awe.sm/d0b48
— David Allen (@wizardgold) July 2, 2012
When is Drobo coming out with Thunderbolt device?
Drobo users will be delighted to hear that there will be a Drobo with a Thunderbolt port available for sale in July of 2012. There are two new Drobo Thunderbolt storage devices, the Drobo 5D and the interesting looking Drobo Mini. The Drobo Mini will take two and a half inch drives and is more of a portable design. I can see that these will be incredibly popular with Mac users that have bought the new MacBook Pro with Retina Display. The two and half inch drives could even be solid state devices giving you a Drobo Thunderbolt SSD. A Drobo Thunderbolt hard drive in this configuration would be screamingly fast. This would be perfect for a video editor working on the road, making video magical creations. Add a Black Magic Thunderbolt Intensity Extreme and things are looking very good indeed for Drobo Thunderbolt 2012.

Day 1
Flights usually depart London in the evening.
Day 2
On arrival those on group flight arrangements will be transferred to our hotel in Mahabalipuram. Those clients not travelling on the group flight make their own way to the hotel. The rest of the day is free to relax and recover.
Day 3
This part of Tamil Nadu was once known as the Coromandel Coast. It has a language over 2,000 years old and poetry dating back to before the birth of Christ. It also boasts some of the most remarkable temple architecture in India, and with a living tradition of music and dance, is culturally very rich. In the morning we visit the rock cut caves and temples at Mahabalipuram. Occupying a stunning position on a rocky outcrop between the beach and a lagoon, the port was made famous by the Pallava dynasty in the 7th century. There are numerous cave temples, monolithic carved shrines in the shape of chariots, stone temples and relief sculptured rock panels all dating back to the 7th century. Carving in stone is still a living art here and we will see stonemasons chipping away from dawn till dusk along the busy roadside, practising the skills that flourished centuries ago. The afternoon is free to enjoy the beach and local area.
Day 4
In the morning we drive to Kanchipuram, one of Hinduism's seven most sacred cities, 'the Golden City of a Thousand Temples'. Dating from the early Chola dynasty in the second century there are still about 70 temples in the town. We visit some of the most impressive, including the Ekambaresvara Temple with its Thousand Pillared Hall and the Kailasanatha Temple, considered to be the most beautiful of the town's temples (please note some temples remain closed from 1130-1530). Later in the day we drive to Chennai.
Day 5
In the early morning we take the express train to Mysore via Bangalore. We arrive in the afternoon and transfer to our hotel.
Day 6
Mysore is the city of royal palaces, sandalwood and the manufacture of incense sticks; it is the former capital of the princely state and is Karnataka's second largest city. Today we have a sightseeing tour of Mysore and its surroundings. Just outside of Mysore is Srirangapatnam the capital of Haider Ali and his famous son, Tipu Sultan. Tipus' famous battles against both the French and the British are depicted in the murals on the walls of his delightful summer palace. Ruins of the Fort and the Gumbaz, the family mausoleums are also here. Returning to Mysore we spend the afternoon exploring the beautifully restored City Palace. Designed by Henry Irwin and built in 1897, it is a remarkable building with domes, arches and colonnades of carved pillars and shiny marble floors. The stained glass, wall paintings, ivory inlaid doors and ornate golden throne are all remarkable. The rest of the day is free to wander round the bazaar.
Day 7
Today we drive to Bandipur National Park (80km, approx 2 to 3 hours), in the afternoon we take a jungle safari. The park stretches over 874 square kilometers, protecting the wildlife of Karnataka, hopefully you will see Gaur (Indian bison), wild elephant and Sambars.
Day 8
If possible this morning there will be an optional visit to an elephant feeding centre, we then drive to Ooty (80km, 2 to 3 hours drive) in the state of Tamil Nadu. Ootacamund (2,286m), or 'Snooty Ooty' is queen of the southern hill stations and was a refuge for British Officials and tea planters in Southern India. We will visit the Botanical Gardens which contain over 1,000 varieties of plants, shrubs and trees including orchids, ferns and alpines set amidst beautiful lawns. There should also be time to visit the nearby St. Stephens church or wander around the bazaar and maybe try some of the locally made chocolate before driving down to Coonoor where our hotel is located (17km, 30 mins drive).
Day 9
This could be Ooty's twin, but Coonoor with its distinctive charm is different. Mist-clad Nilgiri hills, the bright green of the tea estates contrasting sharply against the red poinsettias and quaint bungalows that speak stories of what this was. It was once home to the Coons tribe, and possibly that's where the name comes from. Famous for its verdant surroundings and for a variety of wildflowers and birds today is free to soak up the atmosphere of this hill station, possibly taking a walk through tree plantations or ride the famous toy train (Nilgiri Mountain Railway), one of the oldest mountain railways in India and a UNESCO World heritage site. From Coonoor to Ooty is a delightful one-hour train journey which most groups love to take (please be aware that this isn't always possible if there are bad weather conditions or if they have technical problems with the train).
Day 10
A long drive today (265km, approx 5 to 6 hours) as we leave the Niligiri Hills and drive towards the coast. We leave Tamil Nadu and enter Kerala; the road winds down through forested hillsides and this journey is one of the most scenic in South India giving superb views of the plains below. Late in the afternoon we arrive in Cochin (Kochi) which is set on the Malabar, or 'Pepper Coast', and is one of South India's most interesting towns and is believed to have been the first European settlement in India. Rich in history despite recent growth it retains a relaxed, quiet atmosphere. Narrow spits of land and coconut covered islands jut out into the wide, almost enclosed bay whose neck is lined with the famous Chinese fishing nets.
Day 11
In the morning we tour the harbour area by boat and explore Fort Kochi, believed to be the earliest European settlement in India, founded by the Portuguese in 1503. There will be a guided tour of the Mattancherry Palace built by the Portuguese as a gift for the Raja of Kochi, the Jewish synagogue dating from 1568 and St Francis church. The afternoon is free for individual sightseeing. Most people choose to return to Fort Kochi by ferry and wander around its fascinating streets. A very pleasant lunch of 'fish and chips' is available by the shore. You can buy your fish directly from the fisherman and have it cooked at one of the many adjacent cafes.
Day 12
We head for Alleppey (65km, 1 to 1 hour 30 mins drive) to board our deluxe houseboats for an overnight stay cruising on the backwaters. We board around noon and begin our cruise along the backwaters of Kerala. The cruise is one of the highlights of the trip - these enchanting houseboats, built of Anjili wood and bamboo were the traditional method of transport of goods for hundreds of years. Now they have been decorated and made into comfortable cruise boats. The network of rivers, streams, lagoons and canals occupies the alluvial plain between the Western Ghats and the Indian Ocean. As our boat meanders through areas of lush tropical vegetation we have the opportunity to view not only the prolific bird life but also gain a differing perspective on village life. The cruise takes us along shallow, palm-fringed canals where coconut fibre and cashews are loaded on to dugouts. In the evening the boat is anchored in the backwaters and we can watch the sunset over the rice paddies. All the houseboats are comfortably equipped and have 2 or 3 twin bedded rooms with bathrooms. There is a cook and boat driver and assistants for each boat and the food served is traditional Keralan fare using local produce. No trip to Kerala would be complete without the wonderful experience of the backwaters aboard these traditional Keralite vessels.
Day 13
This morning we leave our houseboat and drive along the scenic Malabar coast to laid back Varkala with its coffee bars and yoga schools perched along its cliff-top.
Day 14
Today is totally free to do whatever you want, relax by the pool, stroll along the two beaches or just wander around the shops. You can also choose from a wide variety of beach shack restaurants for lunch, which serve excellent seafood. Try some of the Tandoori dishes - the clay ovens give a more authentic taste to breads and curries.
Day 15
Those on the flight inclusive package will depart early this morning for the daytime flight back to London; those on Land Only arrangements will finish after check-out from the hotel.

Home > Grassroots > Stories > Roadless Rule Reinstated
December 20, 2006
Among the biggest environmental victories of 2006 was the reinstatement of the Roadless Area Conservation Rule. More than five years of Sierra Club grassroots activism, lobbying, and legal action paid off when a federal judge in California ordered; the original Roadless Rule; put back into force this September. Enacted in 2001 by President Clinton, the Roadless Rule protects 58.5 million roadless acres in America's national forests from road-building, logging, and mining.
One of the Bush administration's first decisions on taking office was to block the rule, substituting a plan that encouraged logging and mining on public lands. The administration formally repealed the rule in 2005, replacing it with a policy of state-by-state management that forced governors to petition the federal government if they wanted protections for national forests within their borders.
Back when the Clinton administration first proposed the rule, the Sierra Club and its allies deluged the Forest Service with a record-breaking one million public comments in support of protecting wild forests. "The Roadless Rule is based on real science and was the result of the most extensive public comment process ever, spanning three years and 600 public meetings" says Club public lands specialist Sean Cosgrove.
But when Bush blocked the rule, the Club had to do it all over again, and since 2001, postcard campaigns and e-mail outreach have kept up a steady drumbeat. In Virginia, Club organizer Dave Muhly and others led "Tours de Cut," taking locals to still-intact national forest roadless areas as well as logged areas so they could experience the contrast for themselves. Oregon Chapter members organized when 12,000 acres of roadless-area logging was proposed in the wake of 2002's Biscuit fire, successfully lobbying the governor to take a stand for roadless area protection and battle the Bush administration in court. "We lost a couple of special places, but we won a huge victory overall and the vast majority of the roadless area logging proposals never moved forward," says chapter organizer Ivan Maluski.
Club members wrote op-eds, letters-to-the-editor, and contacted their governors, stressing that national forests should be protected by a national rule. "In the last year the public really got behind that idea," Muhly says. "State protection is great, but it's no substitute for national protection."
The Sierra Club and a coalition of states and environmental groups also sued the Forest Service to reinstate the Roadless Rule, objecting to the Bush administration's scrapping of the rule with no environmental analysis and little public input. District Judge Elizabeth LaPorte ruled for reinstatement, saying, "While regulation is not a popularity contest, the 1.8 million comments [on the Bush administration rule]...most of which were negative...reflect the heated public debate over the rule's impact." LaPorte's decision came as several states were preparing to allow road construction on these lands, paving the way for logging, mining, oil and gas development, and off-road vehicle use.

Rivera said one of the reasons they made that decision was because it would distinguish themselves from the previous eight versions of the screenplay that had been written -- one by Coppola, one by his son Roman Coppola, authors Russell Banks, Michael Herr, Barry Gifford, and so on. But the main reason was the scroll, in their minds, was much more definitive of Kerouac's intentions, and much less sanitized than the published version. "The scroll was far edgier, it had a darker side to it, it was sexier," he said, noting that some of the voice-over in the film comes straight from the original version. "Both the gay and straight sex in the scroll was far more intense than the published version. The drug use was more. Walter and I felt the scroll was the key into this whole thing."
There was also the personal edge of the death of Sal Paradise's father, mostly absent in the published version. "The scroll began with the death of his father, the known version began with a divorce and we thought the father [story] had a much more compelling emotional energy to it," he explained. "So in a lot of ways, when we were constructing the film -- the search for fathers, what fathers meant, Dean is looking for his literal father, Sal looking for a surrogate -- we thought that was the stronger emotional hook into the story."
Though the public only knows 'Diaries' and now "On The Road," Rivera said he's written three screenplays for Salles that have not been produced. One of them is an adaptation of Junot Diaz's "The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao" for producer Scott Rudin. "I know, I know," he said with a laugh when some of the audience sounded audibly wowed. "Please write to Scott Rudin and tell him to make the fucking movie." The other two unproduced screenplays were an adaptation of Philipp Meyer's "American Rust" (announced in 2009) and a continuation of the Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid story.
"One of Walter's big dreams was to tell the story of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid in their South American years," Rivera said. "They fled the law and went to South America and were in Argentina in Patagonia. And so for five years or so they tried really hard to go straight. No bankrobbing, they raised cattle and chilled out in Argentina." But hardships forced them to change their plans, including the economic collapse of the cattle trade in Agentina (still a big part of that country's infrastructure) and the fact that Sundance's wife Etta Place was stricken with cancer. "So suddenly they needed money and they started robbing banks again," he said. "So my screenplay was about a U.S. Marshall [Martin Sheffield] who goes to Argentina to arrest them and bring them back."
Another obstacle to getting the movie made, might be that the story was very recently brought to the big screen in "Blackthorn" starring Sam Shephard (our review here).
As for "American Rust," Rivera compared it to a Cormac McCarthy novel and said it's set in depressed steel-town in Pennsylvania that's now full of meth labs and trailer trash. "Walter is very interested in examining the underbelly of the American dream, the rotting of the dream," he said. "And that book really captured that."
Franco'stheman | October 30, 2012 11:09 PM
Franco is extremely talented very true and can play any type of role too. Gosh, I'm now wondering what it would have been like with Franco and Gordon-Levitt. Talk about a different level of excitement. I hope Franco and Gordon-Levitt undertake a movie together soon. The future is bright with these two.
Atasi | October 30, 2012 1:29 PM
Franco is indeed a very talented actor!!
carlota | October 30, 2012 9:49 AM
Hedlund and Riley are perfect as Dean and Sal, it's an inspiring casting, while Kristen Stewart is just a box office draw. But it looks like her star power is not working since the film is not doing good box office numbers.
noemi | October 30, 2012 9:23 AM
Salles had the best casting in the moive. In what world would Levitt look like Moriarty? Please. Garrett Hedlund is the perfect Dean, subtile and electrifying. Those who saw the film knows that. Franco and Levitt are not suited to the parts just because they're more known, Franco has not the vulnerability required for Sal.
Pops | October 30, 2012 9:07 AM
Levitt as Dean would have been a disaster. He looks Asian, Moriarty is a German descent blond, blue eyed guy. So thankful he has not been cast. Kristen Stewart is annoying as Marylou actually, why not someone more delectable to the eyes? She has no range, looks like a boy trying to convince as a sexy little sixteen. Ridiculous.

Fassbender and Marion Cotillard were attached to play Old Bull Lee and Jane before Viggo and Amy Adams.
jingmei | October 30, 2012 1:39 AM
Interesting trivia. Glad to have the actual ensemble cast, including Sam Riley, they are the real ones who are available, technically and really.
caleb | October 29, 2012 10:49 PM
i always pictured franco playing the part of dean rather than sal. all the frenetic monologues are perfect material for him.
jasper | October 29, 2012 8:54 PM
Thank goodness, James Franco was not hired. He is full of himself, and he is highly overrated. Now, Joseph Gordon Levitt can practically do anything.
DEAN | October 29, 2012 6:51 PM
Could you guys post an actual review of the director's cut? The playlist and just about all the major trades just recylced their Cannes review as part of their TIFF coverage. Since there are significant changes in this cut, it's only fair that it gets it's own review. I've actually heard from several who've seen both versions of the film that the Toronto cut is much better.
Billy Diamonds | October 29, 2012 5:01 PM
Wow, Franco and JGL? I wonder how much better that would be as opposed to watching Hedlund's dead eyes and drooling mouth trying to emote.

There he was involved in research in radiation biology and received the Huisking Scholarship. After graduating from St. Louis University School of Medicine, he completed his Internal Medicine residency and Rheumatology fellowship at the University of California, Irvine. He is board-certified in Internal Medicine and Rheumatology. IN THIS ARTICLEHow is the hematocrit measured?In most labs, the hematocrit is measured by a machine that automatically determines a variety of blood tests referred to as the complete blood count (CBC). The complete blood count is a numerical listing of the hematocrit as well as the hemoglobin concentration, and the three blood cell lines produced by the bone marrow (the red blood cells, the white blood cells, and the platelets). Another simple method used in Emergency Departments is termed the spun hematocrit or "spun crit." A small amount of blood (about 0.05 to 0.1ml) is placed in a thin capillary tube, the tube sealed with wax or clay and placed in a centrifuge. The red cells collect at the bottom and form a red column and are separated from the straw-colored serum column by a small area composed of white blood cells; the height of the total capillary blood column (red cells, white cells and serum equals 100%). The height of the red cell column divided by the total capillary column height equals the hematocrit (percentage of RBC's in the total blood volume). This test can be performed in a few minutes.

C. Everett Koop was not a moderate man. He was not a Democrat and he was not particularly democratic, either. He could be gruff, unpleasant, and dismissive. I doubt he and I agreed on any political issue, yet, I don't think I have ever met anyone for whom I had more respect. (Though it took me a while to get on board.) Koop's strident 1979 manifesto, "Whatever Happened to the Human Race?," helped establish the evangelical base for America's anti-abortion movement. (Before the book was published, opposition to abortion was seen largely as a Catholic issue. Koop, who died yesterday at the age of ninety-six, helped convince his fellow evangelicals that it was their fight, too.) It is not possible to overstate the joy expressed by America's most conservative leaders when, in 1981, Ronald Reagan nominated Koop to the position of Surgeon General. North Carolina Sen. Jesse Helms (whose state is the home base of Big Tobacco) was one of his principal supporters, and South Carolina's Strom Thurmond promised to help Koop in any way he could. Illinois Rep. Henry J. Hyde, who in 1976 sponsored the signature amendment to prevent Medicaid from paying for abortions, was so delighted with the appointment that he thanked Reagan personally.

Nobody yet knows how severe this year's epidemic of influenza will be. Nobody can ever know in advance. Yet, the evidence that this one will be bad is mounting: in New York, where there have been more than twenty thousand cases of the flu reported, Governor Cuomo has declared a public-health emergency. The virus has already spread widely throughout the country—twenty children have died—and it's not peaked yet. (California is the biggest exception, the only state largely spared so far, and unless they shut the airports, the cargo ports, and the roadways, that it is likely to change any day.) Unfortunately, high flu season is also the time when some of the smartest people I know act in the most irrational ways. On Friday, a highly educated, very smart colleague at The New Yorker explained her decision to remain unvaccinated with these words: "I never get a flu shot, and I never get the flu."
Continue Reading >>The C.I.A. and the Polio Murders
Scientists, with the help of public-health workers, have managed to wipe just two diseases from the face of the earth: smallpox and rinderpest (otherwise known as cattle plague). This year, it had begun to look as if we would soon add another name to that list, a virus that has been a paralytic threat for millennia: polio.
The effort took a devastating step backward yesterday, with the news that six public-health workers were killed in Pakistan; all had been administering polio vaccines. Earlier this year, the World Health Organization declared the eradication of polio to be a world-wide health emergency (a designation which makes it easier to release funds). It did so primarily because the end seemed in sight. Just three countries continue to report infections: Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Nigeria. As soon as the news of the murders spread, however, the health minister for Pakistan's southern Sindh Province put a halt to the vaccination program, which had employed more than twenty-four thousand aid workers. The risks of this detour, which will leave tens of thousands of people vulnerable to new infections, cannot be overstated.

If the need for a new approach to the American electorate wasn't clear enough to Republicans on November 6th, it certainly has been since Mitt Romney delivered his graceless coup de grace a few days later—when he essentially accused President Obama of buying the election by offering students affordable loans and nearly everyone else acceptable health care. Party leaders couldn't disown Romney and his misanthropic distaste for Americans fast enough. Suddenly, all we could hear about were the next generation of leaders. And nobody has been talked about with more excitement than Florida Senator Marco Rubio. After all, Rubio is a young, inspiring Hispanic legislator in a party that desperately needs inspiration, youth, and, perhaps more than anything else, a better handle on the Hispanic vote.

Some people will deny anything that displeases or scares them: unusual pain in their chests, unwanted lumps beneath their skin, or the fact that humans share ancestry with apes are a few examples. Another is climate change. There are people who could watch a hurricane like Sandy blow out of the Atlantic every other day and blame it on anything but human activity. They are like those who, having been diagnosed with diabetes, eat donuts for breakfast. There's not much to do about them.
Continue Reading >>The First Geo-Vigilante
Earlier this year I published a story in this magazine about geoengineering—which is the attempt to lessen the impact of global warming by deliberately altering the climate of the earth. There are many plans, some of which are absurd and potentially catastrophic, and others of which are absurd and potentially vital to the future of humanity. It will all depend on how desperate we become to counteract the effect of greenhouse-gas emissions. Most reputable scientists agree that climate change is real and that the effects are likely to be bad. But nobody can say for sure exactly what bad means.

Just when it looked like Mitt Romney might ignore scientific issues this fall, he vowed, in a flyer he sent out last week, to "get control" of the "massive epidemic" of chronic Lyme disease "wreaking havoc" on the residents of northern Virginia. This would be pretty good news if there was something called chronic Lyme disease, and particularly heartening to any voter who lives in a region where the "epidemic" is "wreaking havoc." But, according to the Infectious Disease Society of America, there is "no convincing biological evidence'' of any such condition. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention concurs. Worse, the flyer advocates responding to the disease with "aggressive antibiotics." But in several recent studies, people with lasting complications of Lyme disease who received antibiotics for an extended period fared no better than those who received placebos. The type of "aggressive antibiotics" that Romney mentioned in the flyer, delivered by intravenous infusion for many weeks at a time, can actually kill people.
Continue Reading >>The Good News About Alzheimer's Disease
For many years, when the term "rare gene mutation" appeared in a sentence along with "Alzheimer's disease," the news was reliably grim. That's because people who possess the only known genetic anomalies associated with the disease face greatly increased chances of becoming sick with it. One gene, known as AP0E4, is so powerfully linked to Alzheimer's that many people—including James Watson, who, along with Francis Crick, discovered DNA—have refused even to learn whether they possess it.
Today, for the first time, researchers have positive genetic news to report: there is a mutation, also rare, that appears to prevent people from getting Alzheimer's. A team of researchers led by Kári Stefánsson and his colleagues at DeCode Genetics in Iceland (I wrote about Stefánsson and Iceland's genetic gold rush for this magazine nearly fifteen years ago) found that this mutation slowed the production of a protein called beta amyloid in the brain. Beta amyloid has long been implicated in Alzheimer's—and previously discovered mutations actually increased its production. The discovery was published online in the journal Nature this afternoon.
Continue Reading >>Mosquitoes and NIMBYism
There have been some striking developments on the genetically modified mosquito front in the past few days—developments that say a lot about how we might use science to approach diseases like dengue in the future, and about whether people have switched from accepting new technologies too easily to reflexively refusing to adopt them at all.
After a successful pilot project, (which I wrote about in this week's issue, and discussed on NPR's "The Takeaway" this morning) Brazil has opened a new factory where scientists will manufacture millions of male Aedes aegypti mosquitoes each month. The project is an attempt to wipe out dengue, which infects at least fifty million people a year—and for which there is neither a treatment or a cure. The insects are engineered with a gene that makes it impossible for their progeny to survive. Released outside the facility, the mutants mate with wild females, which lay eggs, none of which will live to become adults. Brazil's health minister and other leading science and public-health officials attended the opening ceremony, in the northeastern city of Juazeiro. They called it a great day for modern science.

India, which each year has two million new cases of tuberculosis—the largest number in the world—has become the first country to ban the dangerously misleading blood tests that have long been the country's cheapest and most ubiquitous diagnostic tools.
In 2010, I went to India for The New Yorker and wrote about the impact of these tests. They were sold typically by quacks with no legitimate medical training, and were responsible for tens of thousands of misdiagnoses every year. But because public hospitals are so overcrowded, people had little choice other than to rely on them. The tests were so common, and the labs that dispensed them so deeply inadequate, that it seemed to many officials the problem was nearly insoluble.
"This is deadly," L. S. Chauhan, the director of the National TB Control Program, told me at the time. "But there are thousands of labs. Shut one down and the next day ten more appear." Now they will all be shut down. Following unusually forthright recommendations issued by the World Health Organization, the government will prohibit the "manufacture, sale, distribution, use and importing" of the diagnostic kits.

Talking about 8-9 footers. How do you get out if you get stuck inside? Turtling seems ineffective, especially if the wave breaks right infront of you.I can ditch my board and try to dive DEEP, but i can't always do that because there might be others behind me, and it'll usually pull me back some anyway.
Do you just wait for a lull and paddle your ass off? Maybe i need to take a shorter board out. Any tips appreciated.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - The Ohio Supreme Court has cleared the way for the retrial of a Zanesville woman convicted in the drowning of her two young sons.
The Columbus Dispatch reports that the court on Wednesday sided with an appeals court in allowing the retrial of 27-year-old Kasey Klein to go on as scheduled next month. The state appeals court ruled in January that the trial court wrongly denied a defense effort to have Kasey Klein and her husband, 40-year-old Richard, tried separately last year.
Muskingum County Assistant Prosecutor Bob Smith had argued against a re-trial, stating that Kasey and her then-attorney caused the error that led to the overturned convictions.
In June 2011, Kasey's two children, 3-year-old Ayden Cecil and 2-year-old Anthony Tullius, apparently wandered away from a campsite near Ellis Dam and were missing when the parents woke up in the morning. Ayden's body was found in the river hours later; Anthony was never found.
The Kleins were each convicted of involuntary manslaughter and child endangerment, and sentenced to 12 years in prison.
Richard Klein's new trial is scheduled for next week.

FLORENCE, SC (WMBF) – Four people were transported with minor injuries and portions of Interstate 95 around mile marker 161 were blocked following a collision involving three passenger vehicles and an 18-wheeler in Florence.
Two men and two women were taken to Carolina's Hospital Systems by Florence County EMS. All of the patients suffered minor injuries, and were treated and released sometime after noon.
West Florence Fire Department spokesperson Anthony Fox confirms that the collision occurred at mile marker 161 on I-95 at about 9 a.m. Tuesday morning.
Fox explains that an 18 wheeler flipped over and a fuel tank from that truck began to leak. Firefighters did secure the leak and contain the spill area, notifying DHEC of the spill.
Drivers told WMBF the section where the accident occurred is a danger to drive. Those drivers also say they have seen multiple accidents in that area.
A SCDOT spokesperson said the agency is has placed signs along mile marker 161 warning of the slippery conditions that occur in wet weather. That spokesperson also said the department re-paved that section of road to make traction easier for tires. Moving forward, the department has decided to reduce the speed limit to 60 M.P.H. in that area of roadway.
Emergency crews stayed on the scene well into the afternoon removing wreckage from the highway. Fox says the 18 wheeler was carrying 55 gallon drums, which were "empty and not hazardous."

The problem with Greece and the Euro isn't that the fixed exchange rate is foiling Greece from devaluing its way back to prosperity, but rather that adopting the Euro (and the ECB rules) let Greece finance an incredible spending binge at artificially low rates.
If Greece had never joined the Eurozone, it NEVER would have been able to run up so much foreign debt.

By: Scott email@example.com"Back to School" For kids, there are few phrases that are less pleasant! But retailers are already getting stocked up for the season.
We may still be in the middle of July, but back to school sales are already underway across Siouxland. Crayons, glue sticks, notebooks...employees at Target in Sioux City are getting all of the necessaries checked in and ready to display. And customers are already lining the aisles looking to get a jump on their shopping before all of the best back to school gear is snatched up.Christina Case, a Bishop Heelan student, was one of those on Friday. "Well, I know they sell out really fast. Because last year I know I came...end of July early August? And all the colors I needed were already sold. So I wanted to come out before they sold out this year."
Employees we spoke with at Target say that their back to school displays are up a little bit earlier than in years past. The first day of school in Sioux City is August 15th.

The amount of carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere by a vehicle is primarily determined by the carbon content of the fuel. However, there is a small portion of the fuel that is not oxidized into carbon dioxide when the fuel is burned. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has published information on carbon dioxide emissions from gasoline and diesel which takes the oxidation factor into account and is based on the carbon content used in EPA's fuel economy analyses. Vehicles burning diesel fuel release more carbon dioxide per gallon than vehicles burning gasoline, but they also travel more miles per gallon burned.

International Parental Kidnapping
Ruwain Omar Murad, Rouwain Omar Mourad, Hassan ShibliDESCRIPTION
Remarks: |
Murad has a scar on his abdomen. He is thought to probably be outside of the United States and has ties to Lebanon, Syria, Turkey, Jordan, and France. He was working in New York until the time of the abduction. Murad is a naturalized American citizen. |
Ruwayn Omar Murad is wanted for allegedly kidnapping his two children from the residence of the parents of his estranged wife in Rutland, Vermont. On the morning of April 30, 2000, Murad traveled to Vermont in order to meet his children, Maya (then age 5) and a son (then age 2). Shortly after arriving at the residence, he took the children outside to play with them in the yard of the property. He was then observed forcing the children into a vehicle and leaving the area. A federal arrest warrant charging Murad with international parental kidnapping was issued in Burlington, Vermont, on May 25, 2000.
The boy was located and returned to the United States in May of 2010. His sister, Maya Murad, is still missing.
Victim - MAYA ELIZABETH MURAD
Remarks: |
Maya may be going by the names Reem Shibli or Rim Shibli. |
If you have any information concerning this person, please contact your local FBI office or the nearest American Embassy or Consulate.
Field Office: Albany
