WESTPORT — Taxpayers here turned down a school bond Tuesday, seeking up to $500,000 for a backup generator, new security entrance and resurfaced tennis courts.
As proposed, the project would have provided a secondary power supply allowing the school to be used as an emergency shelter for town residents.
District Clerk Jana Atwell said the voter turnout was above average. Out of a total 406 votes, 165 taxpayers voted in favor of the project and 239 voted against it, along with one void and one blank ballot.
The capital project plan will be likely be brought up at the next regular board meeting Jan. 14, Atwell said.
Voters also gave Thomas D. Kohler the open seat on the Westport School Board by a count of 221 votes. Ulrich V. Hoffmann received 168 votes.
The two candidates sought election for an interim term until June 30, 2011. The seat was vacated by the resignation of board member Kathleen carterMartinez.
The capital building project sought $186,496 to be raised by taxes to purchase and install an emergency power generator system, construct a new foyer security entrance, add electric card access controls to school entrances and to resurface the school's tennis courts.
State building aid would have covered 65.3 percent — $400,435 — of the project with another $81,396 in EXCEL monies.
School officials and the School Board calculate the impact on the school tax rate would have added three cents per $1,000 of real property value for the period of the loan, which would be 15 years.

Good afternoon everybody,
While building a Project in QT creator (Experimental version For building apps for Symbian on Linux http://projects.developer.nokia.com/symbian_linux_qtsdk) I got some errors, which are SBS related.
I got the Linux-headers, Glibc2 and glibc-devel installed so i don't understand the error.Code:Error: sbs has not been installed with support for your platform: "linux i386 libc2_9". The utilites for your platform should be in "/home/timothy/QtSDK/Symbian/tools/sbs/linux-i386-libc2_9" but sbs cannot find them there. sbs is supported on: win32 linux i386 libc2_3 (Redhat 4) sbs has been known to work (but is not supported) on: linux x86_64 libc2_5 (e.g. Centos/Redhat 5.3 64-bit) linux i386 libc2_8 (e.g. Fedora 9 32-bit) linux x86_64 libc2_10 (e.g. Fedora 11 64-bit) Even with the appropriate utilities it may be necessary to install 32-bit compatibility versions of some libraries (e.g. glibc) on these platforms, particularly for 3rd party tools which are not built natively such as compilers.

According to ESPN FC, the Premier League leads other leagues in number of players selected to World Cup squads as of today.
Crystal Palace's turbulent start to the new season continued as they were beaten 3-1 by West Ham United at Selhurst Park.
Everton were in complete control, going up 2-0 by halftime and controlling play for the majority of the second half, but Arsenal struck for two goals in the final 8 minutes to steal a point in the 2-2 final.
Marouane Chamakh scored a good goal, but Crystal Palace were well beaten by West Ham at Selhurst Park.
For the second consecutive match to open their season, Everton let a lead slip away and had to settle for a draw, the one today with Arsenal being particularly heartbreaking as the two sides finish 2-2.
Burnley go goalless on their trip to Swansea city and find themselves at the bottom of the table in the early going having yet to earn a point.
Louis van Gaal confirmed during yesterday's press conference that new signing Ander Herrera will be absent from Sundays team sheet after the player suffered an injury in training.
Mike Williamson earned a second yellow card late on for Newcastle United but it did not help Aston Villa find a goal in a sloppy 0-0 draw.
Aston Villa escaped their home opener with a point thanks to another clean sheet by Ron Vlaar and company as they finished 0-0 with Newcastle United.
Leicester City were game opponents but Diego Costa and Eden Hazard scored as Chelsea cruised to victory at Stamford Bridge in Week 2.
Kasper Schmeichel made a few excellent saves and Leicester stuck with Chelsea for 62 minutes but couldn't hold back the tide of Chelsea's attack.
A first half goal from Nathan Dyer was all that was needed to give Swansea City their second consecutive win to start the season, as they hold off several late flurries by Burnley to win 1-0.

"I am appreciative of the faith that ownership has shown in our baseball leadership group," commented Daniels in a statement, who is in his sixth year as Rangers General Manager.

Daniels joined Texas in 2002 as a baseball operations assistant. He was pomoted as the Rangers' Genermal Manger in 2003.
"Jon and his baseball operations group have done an outstanding job in building an organization that will allow the Rangers to contend for postseason play year in and year out," said club President Nolan Ryan.

Poured from the engine lighter copper with a creamy top,aromas werent as big as expected with piney vineous hop coming thru most.Flavors were very nice piney,herbal hops that just lingered nicely on the palate over top of a drier biscuity malt base.The hops just seemed to just hang there wich made me wanna drink more the low carbonation from the cask made it slide down oh so easy.It was a big seller with the locals with the cute barmaid wrenching on the pump all night,very well made.

In a pint glass this beer was a hazy copper color. It had a thick white head that resembled whipped cream. A good deal of lace.
Aroma was mostly citrus with a tiny bit of piney hops. Some sweet malt.
Primarily citrus taste, mostly grapefruit but some tangerine also. Little bit of piney hops late. Solid malt background.
Medium-bodied, pretty hoppy.
Nice beer.

A - Pours a cloudy amber with one finger oh head that dissipates quickly.
S - Floral and citrus hops are about all I get from this. Smell is pretty appealing though.
T - Nice hop bitterness up front. The is some pine in the taste that I didn't get from the smell. Pretty good.
M - Medium mouthfeel that coats the palate somewhat. Good carbonation level.
O - Not the best IPA around, but one of the better beers I've had from Arbor.

12 oz bottle. Pours a cloudy brownish gold with a thin white head that quickly goes to a thin film.
The aroma is bright and fruity (lemon) hops with some grains in the background.
The flavor is fruity, piney and grassy hops with some grains and a good bitter finish that lingers in the aftertaste. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with low carbonation and kind of watery.
Overall, it's pretty one-dimensiona and a bit thinl, but it's a very good IPA and one of my favorites from Arbor.

12oz brown bottle with no freshness date.
LOOK: Dense rocky head, hazed golden amber
SMELL: Oily citric rind, nectarines, estery, toasted biscuits, nutty yeast, mild caramel
TASTE: Orange zest, mild toasted biscuit, warming alcohol, hop bitterness, yeasty, taffy, evergreen, mango, bitter semi-dry finish
A solid IPA, 80 IBUs? Sure it is bitter but I focused on the well rounded hop character rather than just the bitterness. A balanced drinkable IPA.

Pours a hazy golden color with a foamy two finger head that lingers a few minutes clinging to the glass ever so slightly as it dissipates. The nose is of grass and citrus, good standard IPA smells. The taste is grassy hops at hops giving way to bit of citrus with a good malt backbone to balance it out and a slight bit pepper on the ass end. Body is light to medium. I like this beer a lot....when it is fresh. If the bottles have been sitting even a couple months some tend to become geysers. Three from my last six pack were though I did not detect any "off" flavors.

Golden amber in appearance with thin, lacey head. Scents of light hops with faint citrus. Hop taste with a hint of molasses, apple and peppery spice. The mouthfeel isn't bad but the lingering bitter after-taste, more so than a lot of I.P.A.s, detracts a bit from the overall experience. Not bad though.

Poured into my Dfh snifter, a dark orange color that leaves a little bit of fluffy foam and some glass lacing. Smell- uh oh, there is something wrong here. I get a unpleasant grass flavor, mixed with a hint of...hot glue? Taste- unpleasant band aid scent, some toffee, some bitterness (but not apparently from the hops- I can't seem to find them anywhere!). This IPA is a disaster. Total drainpour, and I will not seek out again.

On tap at The Hunt Club. Yellow with a significant head, and then lacey. Average mouthfeel. Very bitter and then drying, so if there was complexity of flavours it was a jumbe in the hops. Drinkable, but only average for the style. Maybe better on cask the way the brewery began serving it.

on cask at the brewpub
cellphone notes
appearance: hazy grapefruit amber body, frothy beige cap. a sight for sore eyes after a long drive from Madison
smell: earthy hops - grapefruit, pulpy hop presence, nicely spiced
taste: a nice cask IPA - moderately hopped primarily showcasing pulpy grapefruit and lemon zest - floral citrus and delicate white pepper. saw the bottles around too but figured fresh at the pub was the way to go
mouthfeel: pulpy, juicy hops - medium body, light bitterness
drinkability: good - a solid brewpub IPA

I need to pay more attention when pouring some of these wonderful beers...I F'ing hate FLOATIES!!!! Pet peive...sorry. The Sacred Cow from Arcadia is a decent beer. The color is a cloudy copper and thin white head that seems to be lacing quite well. The smell is bolstered with apricot and maybe some sublte pine. The taste isnt bad. I am catching some belgium malt character which isnt my favorite, but there is some citrus and pine that helps to keep this beer towards my favorite. The mouthfeel is ok I porbably would choose to session this beer, but I could. Certainly worth a try if you can.

Hand-pulled from the cask at the brewpub and served in an imperial pint glass.
The cask was very fresh and this beer was a real treat. The hops, like all the flavors thanks to the cask, were light on the tongue with a grassy citrus taste. That's balanced against mild biscuit and caramel malts. The drinkability is excellent and the aftertaste and finish is a fine peppercorn bitterness.

12 oz. bottle into my Kona Brewing pint glass.
A-Pours a dark golden color. I've had this beer on numerous occasions and everytime it seems to pour extremely foamy. Pouring with about 1/2 foam, this particular beer was not an exception.
S-Sweet and hoppy.
T- Very hoppy throughout, bitter as well. The noticeable malt presence balances the beer very well though.
M- Very good, not to thick. High in carbonation, but it works for this beer.
D- As IPA's go this is a very drinkable one. I could definitely drink several of these.
I think this is my second six pack of Sacred Cow, and with each one I drink this beer grows on me. Definitely will buy this beer again. Though nothing groundbreaking it is definitely a very solid, drinkable IPA.

Boundtostrip - The Board Game
With ropes, cuffs, handcuffs & whips, etc now surprisingly popular on the high street, Boundtostrip was developed as a game to help those new to 'the ropes' some ways they may help enhance their experiences. It also however suits those consenting adults who may have been involved in these desires for some time, to further expand their experiences.
With the massive popularity of 50 shades worldwide, the demand for interest in this area of sexual exploration has also increased exponentially.
After many years in development, testing with many willing volunteer couples in the UK, sourcing UK suppliers, and final finishes to the look and feel of the game, Boundtostrip will very soon have another batch of games in production. To buy one for yourself, please visit our purchase page.
Alternatively, to see more information on the superb designer working on the graphical representation of the game, please view www.musefineart.co.uk.

In Thursday's Healthier Me, it's the kind of medical research kids dream of: a new stud has found that video games may help some children read better!
The study focused on children with dyslexia, meaning they have difficulty with reading accuracy and comprehension; after nine 80-minute sessions of playing active video games, kids were able to read faster and more accurately.
Researchers say more work needs to be done before recommending any type of "video game therapy" -- but suggest it offers hope for early intervention.

You read it right. The whole world may be going nuts for twitpics, but this fashion week, we opted for Whitpics, courtesy of Trovata designer John Whitledge. Since he took a season off from showing his collection, Whitledge had a little free time to take in the sights of New York fashion week. We sent him out, camera in hand; below is his photo diary of a week at the shows, the scenes, the parties, and the strip clubs (!) of NYFW, with a few words from the man himself on what he saw there.

vacation rental description
A wonderful secluded cottage surrounded by trees yet very close to
Long Pond, the finest of the Belgrade Lakes, known for its pristine
water for swimming, boating and fishing. The third largest of the
Belgrade Lakes it is 12 miles long and covers 2,557 acres, We are
retired academics (Colby College/U of Michigan & Bowdoin college) and
picked this beautiful spot because it is quiet (away from too noisy
vacationers) for reading, writing, and relaxing as well as the usual
lake activities. Most of the year we live in busy London, England. The
bargain rental rate is because the cottage is not ON the lake, just a
3 minute walk away.
Our place is part of a large private association that has a boat dock
and sandy beach on Long Pond. The dock is a 3 minute walk and the
swimming beach is a 8 minute walk from the cottage along a well
maintained dirt road. One advantage of being near, but
not on the lake, and surrounded by beautiful forest is that we are
constantly visited by friendly wildlife: birds, chipmunks, the
occasional deer, a wandering flock of wild turkeys, etc.
And of course we can hear the wonderful sound of the loons in the
Although rustic looking, this modern cottage is only 20 years old and can sleep up to 7. There are two upstairs bedrooms, one with a new king size bed, the other with 2 new regular size beds. A new fold out couch is in the living room, and a cot with mattress is in the front porch room. We are 1 hour drive from the Portland, Maine Jetport, 3 hours from Boston, 5 hours from New York, and 5 hours from Quebec, Canada. All the amenities and local towns & activities are listed below.
In late September-October is the famous fall folliage season.
In the WINTER there is great cross country skiing right in the area with down hill skiing 27 miles away. One of the best down-hill skiing areas in the USA is at Sugarloaf , 49 miles north which has 138 trails, the longest being 3.5 miles from summit to base. There are 15 lifts. Then there is skating & ice fishing on Long Pond, a 3 minute walk from the cottage where you can catch Northern pike, wide-mouth bass, salmon, & trout. It a very special area with a modern winter cottage heated by excellent baseboard heat and/or a Superb wood stove.
Please click on the "availability calendar" for open dates.
If you wish to bring a pet please email the details (age, size, disposition, trained, etc). The yard is not fenced & visited by deer, turkeys, etc.
Here is a comment from a 2 season renter:
I have rented the Rose cottage for the past two summers and it has been delightful. It's peaceful and quiet; the only sounds you hear are tweets from the birds. The kitchen is very well equipped, from lobster pot to rolling pin. Cottage is very well furnished, with comfortable beds and internet connection. And there is a great variety of things to do in the area. Sally from Florida

To the editor:
The president is fabricating about his administration's actions and inactions regarding an al-Qaida terrorist attack in Libya one week after the Democratic Convention celebrated the killing of Osama bin Laden and victory-danced to cries of "al-Qaida is no more."
The Benghazi disaster is caused by the inept attempts at apologizing and appeasement that Obama has instituted in the Middle East since 2009. What was missing in Obama's understanding is the fact that people who are fed 12th-century laws and philosophy don't understand or respect "niceness" and nuance. They require firmness of purpose and swift reaction to attacks like Benghazi or these people see weakness and are encouraged to perform more attacks.
We now know that the ambassador and the head of the U.S. Libyan embassy security team saw 48 attacks in the months and weeks running up to the 9/11 anniversary. They had been requesting more security but actually received an order to remove security personnel. Why?
The day of the attack, Hillary Clinton began the cover-up with the video defense which was totally untrue, which she knew was a bald-faced lie, about a protest that never happened in Benghazi and amplified it by congratulating the group that "helped our ambassador to the hospital" when they were actually holding him up in celebration that they killed him!
The press allowed the Obama campaign for 14 days to sweep the reality of the murders and the shambles of his policy under the rug. The press attacked Romney for accurate statements to obfuscate the truth. This deliberate attempt to cover-up the malfeasance and dereliction of duty by the president and secretary of state shows their true contempt for the American people and what this country stands for.
History repeats itself, now with murder. Like Richard Nixon, Obama should simply resign.

MADISON(AP) - Republican Gov. Scott Walker says he won't expand Wisconsin's Medicaid services to 175,000 childless adults as the federal health care overhaul law allows.
Instead, Walker announced Wednesday a hybrid approach that he says will drop the state's uninsured non-elderly adults from 14 percent to 7 percent.
Walker's plan would tighten the income threshold to qualify for Medicaid, but also lift the cap on a program that covers childless adults. He says the net effect would insure 224,580 more people.
Walker was among the last Republican governors to decide whether to move forward with the expansion. Six Republican governors have agreed to the Medicaid expansion.
Wisconsin's hospitals and many medical and health advocacy groups had urged Walker to accept the federal money to pay for the expansion of services.

When reengineering software systems, maintainers should be able to assess and compare emph{multiple} change scenarios for a given goal, so as to choose the most pertinent one. We designed Orion, an interactive prototyping tool for reengineering, to simulate changes and compare their impact on multiple versions of software source code models. We deal with requirements such as: interactive simulation of changes, reuse of existing assessment tools, and ability to hold multiple and branching versions simultaneously in memory. Specifically, we devise an infrastructure which optimizes memory usage of multiple versions for large models. This infrastructure uses an extension of the FAMIX source code meta-model but it is not limited to source code analysis tools since it can be applied to models in general. We propose the Orion-Browser, a prototype of browser which allows us to navigate in versions.
We developed an experimental version browser dedicated to analysis of cyclic dependencies between packages. It serves as the central place for running version analyses and cycle analysis (shown in figref{browser}). This section describes the core functions of the browser with respect to our vision, illustrated in the context of cycle removal. We do not claim that this browser is the sole solution to manage simultaneous versions. It is an illustration of our vision and of possibilities currently offered by Orion.
We distinguish two parts in the browser layout: top row for navigation in the system, bottom row for task analysis and change assessment. The reengineer interacts with the browser by selecting elements in the different panels and opening a contextual menu.

The Cincinnati Reds, Cleveland Indians and Arizona Diamondbacks have executed a massive three-team trade with nine players changing cities, per a Diamondbacks' press release.
The Arizona Diamondbacks (@dbacks) have acquired shortstop Didi Gregorius (@DidiG18), left-handed pitcher Tony Sipp (@SippTony) and first baseman Lars Anderson from the Cleveland Indians in exchange for right-handed pitchers Trevor Bauer, Matt Albers and Bryan Shaw, according to D-backs Executive Vice President & General Manager Kevin Towers.
Here is the rundown:
Reds get:
OF Shin-Soo Choo
IF Jason Donald
$3.5 million
Indians get:
P Trevor Bauer
P Matt Albers
P Bryan Shaw
OF Drew Stubbs
Diamondbacks get:
SS Didi Gregorius
1B Lars Anderson
P Tony Sipp
The deal satisfies pressing needs for each team. The Reds desperately needed offense at the top of the batting order. Reds' lead off hitters in 2012 hit an embarrassing .208/.254/.327. Choo gives them a potent bat at the top of the order, as he has hit .289/.381/.465 for his career. He will likely play center field for the Reds, a position he has only played in 10 games as a major leaguer. The cash balances out the difference between Stubbs' and Choo's projected salaries, according to Ken Rosenthal.
The Indians got an arm with tremendous upside, which is exactly what they needed. Bauer was the Diamondbacks' minor league Pitcher of the Year in 2012 and the third overall pick in the 2011 draft. Stubbs has been the Reds' everyday center fielder for over three seasons, but his bat has steadily regressed each year. He hit a career-low .213/.277/.333 in 2012, but he is known as a strong defender in center and has stolen 110 bases in his career.
Didi Gregorius is the Diamondbacks' new shortstop of the future, and he could start for them as soon as this coming spring. Gregorius is known for his elite defense at shortstop, displaying great range and a strong arm. He hit .265/.324/.393 between double-A and triple-A this season.

Bulldogs blank Panthers for Section X crown
POTSDAM — The Chateaugay girls' soccer team had its way against Parishville-Hopkinton during the Northern Athletic Conference regular season.
That didn't change in the playoffs Thursday night.
The undefeated Bulldogs, recording their third shutout in a row in postseason play, defended their Section X Class D championship with a 3-0 victory at Potsdam High School.
Chateaugay, which had earlier recorded 7-1 and 4-2 victories over the Panthers, will be back in Potsdam Saturday when it opposes Section VII champion Elizabethtown-Lewis in the NYSPHSAA quarterfinals.
"We're very happy," Chateaugay coach Steve Lang said. "Parishville-Hopkinton has a high-powered offense that had scored 66 goals coming into the game. So, absolutely, it's nice to get the win and the shutout.
"Coming into the game, they had only been shut out once this season."
Hannah Cook led the way offensively for the Bulldogs (19-0) with two goals.
The first came unassisted at 10:17 of the first half and put Chateaugay ahead to stay.
"She beat a couple of defenders near midfield and than beat the sweeper," Lang said. "So she ended up beating three defenders in all."
Alexis Beach then gave the Bulldogs a 2-0 first-half lead at 14:04 when she scored off a Stephanie Whyte assist.
"Whyte had the ball outside on the right side, and she crossed it to Beach," Lang said. "Beach then beat the sweeper and scored."
Chateaugay added its third and final goal with 14:04 gone in the second half. Cook added her second goal of the game, with Danielle Charland assisting.
"It was off a big scramble in front," Lang said. "The ball was bouncing around all over and deflected to Charland, who then redirected it to Cook."
The Bulldogs finished with a 14-8 advantage in shots. Makayla Fleury recorded the shutout with seven saves, and Marlee Wilson stopped eight shots for the Panthers.
"At times, it was a back-and-forth game," said Lang. "But, for the game, we held a probably a 60-40 edge in possession.
"They had one quality chance when it was 1-0. They sent in a line-drive shot from about 20 yards out. Fleury couldn't catch it, but she deflected it over the crossbar. That was the only quality shot they had, and we weren't too worried about the others."
Once again, the Bulldogs were strong on defense.
"That's our third shutout in a row in the postseason, but I think it's our seventh in a row overall," Lang said. "Abby Barnes, Sarah Gardiner and Lindsey Matthews all played well defensively for us tonight."

There may be no goals after 45 minutes of play, but the match between Genoa and AC Milan is not nearly as dire as may have been anticipated. Although it often seems as though the rossoblu have ten men behind the ball, at least the home side is getting forward, even if their finishing leaves something to be desired. A free kick by Miguel Veloso threatened to disturb the rossoneri peace, but Marco Amelia managed to tip it over the bar to preserve the clean sheet.
Milan, for their part, look simply sloppy. Antonio Nocerino and Zlatan Ibrahimovic have both stung the gloves of Sebastien Frey, but the visitors don't look like a team intent on leaving with all three points. Their passing has been, shall we say, negligent, with the best illustration provided by Thiago Silva: the Brazilian attempted a cross field pass that fell far short of his fellow defenders, allowing Giandomenico Mesto to pounce, but unfortunately for Genoa, his shot went just wide.
Provided there are no more smoke bomb/tear gas/noxious fumes eruptions, we should be in for a fun second half. Someone's gotta score, right?

The Chatham County jury has started deliberations in the murder trial for Shan Cheley who is accused in the slaying of 18-year-old Amber Deloach.
The prosecution recapped witnesses that testified throughout the week. A couple of men testified who have served time in prison with Cheley, one who said Cheley admitted to killing Deloach.
The defense told the jury, the reason Amber's blood was found inside the house was because Cheley and Deloach had sex on the floor.
This is day four of the murder trial. If the jury convicts Cheley, he could face life in prison without the possibility for parole.

ATLANTA (AP) - State lawmakers in the House have approved a sweeping overhaul of Georgia's juvenile justice system, with the bill now moving to the Senate for consideration.
The legislation, based on recommendations of a special panel convened by Gov. Nathan Deal, is designed to provide judges with greater discretion in sentencing youth offenders and reduce overall costs within the juvenile justice system. The bill passed unanimously on Thursday.
Supporters of the legislation say the reforms will allow Georgia to focus on treating the underlying causes of criminal behavior rather than an emphasis on locking up non-violent offenders.
They point to the fact that Georgia spends more than $90,000 a year on each youth offender behind bars and say 65% who are released end up back in jail within three years.

Public Abstract:
Efficient cryopreservation and banking of stem cells and stem cell-derived products is a critical component of any comprehensive plan for using these products to regenerate tissues in clinical settings. Banking stem cells and their derivatives provides sufficient time between derivation of cell products and their subsequent distribution to medical centers for safety and efficacy testing to be accomplished. Unfortunately, current methods for cryopreservation of human embryonic stem cells and derivative cell lines are inefficient, hampered by poor recovery, loss of "stem-ness" or self-renewal capability, and changes in gene expression that indicate the nature of the cells has altered during cell processing. Cryopreservation is stressful to cells because it causes rapid changes in water content, formation of dangerous ice crystals, exposure to chemicals that prevent ice crystals but are themselves somewhat toxic, and significant shifts in temperature. Improvements in cryopreservation protocols that minimize cell damage and maintain stem cell characteristics needed for their ability to relocate to and regenerate the corresponding tissues are direly needed. Such improvements will allow the development of an inventory of stem cell products relevant to the wide range of diseases for which stem cell therapy may be applicable. The proposed research will investigate the efficacy of varied cryopreservation protocols on stem cells and populations of stem cell derivatives that appear to represent unique tissues, including some with demonstrated ability to regenerate tissues and restore organ function. Two novel approaches to protect these cells against the stress of cryopreservation will be tested, including the use of a new generation of freezing solutions and a strategy that employs a naturally occurring cell survival signaling pathway known to protect cells against a variety of other biological stress conditions.
Statement of Benefit to California:
Efficient cryopreservation of stem cell products is a critical component of any comprehensive plan for implementing human tissue regeneration interventions. Improvements in cryopreservation will facilitate banking and safety/efficacy testing of stem cell products relevant to the wide range of diseases for which stem cell therapy may be applicable. The number of Californians who stand to benefit are indicated by yearly mortality rates for coronary heart disease (CHD, 52,000), diabetes-related problems (27,000) and stroke (16,000) and by nonfatal head and spinal cord injury hospitalization rates (25,000 and 1400 per year, respectively). With respect to the tremendous ethnic and racial diversity of California, the impact will be felt across all communities. Hispanics have the highest rate of work-related injuries including burns and trauma. African Americans have the highest rates of CHD and stroke. Pacific Islanders have the highest rates of diabetes-related deaths, followed by African Americans and then Hispanics. Hemoglobinopathies such as sickle cell disease and thalassemia are primarily diseases of African Americans and persons of Asian, Mediterranean and Middle Eastern descent. Craniofacial malformations that affect 1 in 700 children overall have the highest incidence in Native Americans (1 in 300) and Hispanics (1 in 500). Whereas men are by far more likely to suffer head and spinal cord injuries, approximately 12% of American women of childbearing age have sought help for infertility. Improved cryopreservation of gonadal stem cells and oocytes would be a significant benefit to women's health. As an example of the impact on California's children, pediatrics burns affect 100, 000 children nationwide per year. The tremendous impact of childhood mortality or disability on society can be better appreciated by measuring years of life and productivity lost. Using this measure, cancer and heart disease still have the highest impact on years lost due to the large numbers of California adults affected by these diseases. However, unintentional injuries and congenital malformations were also ranked highly (3rd and 7th), due to the younger ages of the affected persons. The financial burden of stem cell treatable illnesses is highly significant. For example, in California surgical costs to state service agencies average over $1.5 million per child affected by cleft lip or palate. However, the cost of hospitalizations and surgical treatments does not reflect the indirect toll. For adults, these include costs to industry due to the impact of absenteeism and lost productivity, costs to public programs accountable for their beneficiaries, and other costs to society. In total, the impact of this research is far-reaching with respect to individual lives saved, range of medical conditions, racial and ethnic diversity, women's health, the state's economic health and the future generations who will contribute to and enjoy California's long-term well-being.
Review Summary:
SYNOPSIS: The proposed project seeks to develop improved methods for cryopreservation of human embryonic stem cells and hESC-derived embryonic progenitors. Efficient cryopreservation and survival after thawing will be important for making hESCs easier to work with and study in general, and in particular facilitate scale up of cultures for differentiation and genetic modification studies. Cryopreservation of hESCs is currently imperfect and is associated with significant cell loss. The first aim of the study is to isolate fresh clonal progenitor cells from hESCs along three germ layer lineages which will be produced by Advanced Cell Technology. Some of these cell lines, which have been derived previously, show cryopreservation inefficiency, thus several progenitor lines will be re-derived and studied in the subsequent aims. Next, the applicants propose to develop rational methods for improving cryopreservation efficiency by testing novel proprietary solutions and using quantitative methodologies to assess a variety of factors. The final aim is to determine whether sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) enhances the ability of cells to survive the cryopreservation and thawing process. IMPACT AND SIGNIFICANCE: The proposal is innovative in attempting to isolate and use fresh clonal endodermal, mesodermal, and ectodermal progenitor cell lines from hESCs which have not been formally established, characterized or studied. More likely, the project's significant impact will be in the area of improved cryopreservation technology. This applied technology development relates to a critical and underfunded area of hESC research whose significance is generally not appreciated. Improving the efficiency of storing hESC lines will facilitate the use of these cells in research and clinical settings because hESC-derived cells will likely need to be stored prior to use in cellular therapies. The cryopreservation of hESC is a problematic technical area, although the efficiency of survival has been significantly improved over the past several years. This work is somewhat high risk because these studies are at an early stage. The PI has expertise in this area, and some preliminary data that supports the second aim of the proposal. The scientific significance of the differentiation studies in the first aim are less clear as they seem to be a repeat of work previously published. Although less well-supported by published data, the use of S1P may further improve the survival of hESC during a freeze-thaw cycle, and the proposal to test novel solutions to protect hESCs from cryopreservation injury may be applicable to many other cell types. Pursuing this type of applied research will speed the translation of hESC research into the clinic. QUALITY OF THE RESEARCH PLAN: The overall quality of the research plan is considered to be strong and the individual aims are well integrated. In Aim 1 the investigators will differentiate hESCs to cells for use in the cryopreservation experiments. The project largely relies on methods previously developed – cells will be provided by ACT. The intellectual innovation of the proposal is in Aim 2 in developing novel cryopreservation protocols. Aim 3 will test whether S1P is an effective cryoprotectant for hESCs and hESC-derived cells. This factor has been shown to improve survival and maintenance of hESC by the Pera lab, and this is a reasonable and easily tested question. The need for developing more cell line samples in Aim 1 is unclear. The clinical utility, characteristics, and usefulness, as well as the purity of the lineage-restricted embryonic progenitor cell types derived from hES cells remains to be seen, and the work in this project could proceed without studies on these particular embryonic cell types, and could be well focused on undifferentiated hESCs themselves. In this case NIH-approved lines could be used and would still lead to valuable new information. The sections of the proposal that aim to improve the survival of hESC during freezing and thawing are well supported, and may yield improved techniques if successful. However, there are three main areas of concern regarding the quality of the research plan. First, a rational assessment of the susceptibility profiles of different cell types in developing a cryoprotectant process (Aim 2) is intellectually satisfying, but unlikely to be effective. The field of cryopreservation is largely empirical. Many labs have attempted to rationally design cryoprotection protocols, but these efforts have not been generalizable to a wide variety of cell types. This does not mean rational design strategies should be abandoned since the potential payoff is very high even though the likelihood of success is low. However, relatively poorly characterized cells, such as hESC derivatives, are not the best choice of cell line for such studies. The methods proposed in this project may improve preservation protocols for a small number of cell types tested but are unlikely to be effective against all or most types. A systematic variation of parameters, though less interesting, would likely provide better results with less effort. Second, the goal of cryopreserving differentiated cells also may be of value, but the preliminary data could be summarized with better quality figures and more complete descriptions. A review of the relevant literature suggests that the samples to be provided by ACT are not in fact cell lines, but heterogeneous populations of differentiated cells that have been characterized up to passage four. While they are derived clonally, they have not been shown to be maintained with a stable phenotype even for these four passages. As sources of differentiated cells, however, they may be useful to answer questions about predicting optimal cryopreservation methods in Aim 2. Third, to develop better cryopreservation protocols the PI has initiated a collaboration with an expert in the field, Dr. Fahy from 21st Century Medicine, and in Aim 2 they will perform a carefully thought out series of studies to test a variety of parameters including osmotic stress and cryoprotectant toxicity. The method described in the proposal as standard, is not in fact a standard cryopreservation method for hESC. Also, the requirement for extensive gene array analysis of cryopreseved samples is not well supported. STRENGHTS: Advances in cryopreservation techniques would be of use to the hESC research community. While these studies are high risk, focusing on the development of general cryopreservation protocols applicable to any cell type rather than testing hESC-specific methodologies enhances the potential impact of the study. This proposal has a well-written and rationally developed research plan which integrates the study of novel survival molecules and new cryopreservation solutions for the storage of human ES cells and their cultured progenitor cell derivatives. This is an ambitious analysis of multiple hESC-derived cell types along with an extensive characterization of the cells following thaw. The PI has extensive experience in the area of cryopreservation, and addresses significant technical challenges of using hESC. In addition, there are good preliminary data indicating the ability to generate hESC-derived clones with distinct transcriptional profiles. The data and publication record indicating the effects of S1P on cell stress responses is also good. Strong collaborators with potentially synergistic expertise are brought together to accomplish the work. The collaboration plan between researchers at Children's Hospital of Oakland, Advanced Cell Technology, and 21st Century Medicine is well-developed, and as a whole the team is experienced in cell cryopreservation, S1P biology, and hESC biology. WEAKNESSES: The proposal aims to ask technical questions about the cryopreservation of hESC and their differentiated progeny. However, much of the work of the proposal is lacking in clear rationale, for example the need to repeat the extensive differentiation studies and gene expression profiling. Also, it is not clear how the goal of cryopreserving hESC-derived differentiated cells is different from the PI's current NIH-funded projects, except for the origin of the cells. This is a new investigator in the field, without direct experience herself with human ES cell culture or stem cell biology expertise, and there is no description in the proposal of how the PI's own group will obtain these skills. A major weakness of the proposal lies with the unknown characteristics of the isolated clonal progenitor cell populations. Although Advanced Cell Technology has isolated purportedly clonal progenitor cell lines, the exact characterization of these lines has not been performed. Limited gene expression profiling has been done on them, and in fact it is not clear that the cell lines have the characteristics of true progenitor cells which would include some proliferative capacity, and the ability for differentiation into one or more downstream differentiated cell lineages. It is also not proven that these clonal lines demonstrate purity or a range of cell types along a particular lineage. In addition, no data on endodermal phenotypes is provided. A significant part of the proposal deals with studying the cryopreservation of these progenitor cell lines. As such, this research would have limited applicability if the studies were performed on cells that ultimately proved not to have these progenitor cell characteristics. On the other hand, the main aspect of the proposal deals with simply studying the cryopreservation of undifferentiated human ESCs and this information alone would be useful to the stem cell community if the goals of the proposal were reached. The viability of HEK cells exposed to the novel proprietary cryopreservation solutions demonstrates only a modest twofold improvement compared to DMSO. The key preliminary data on proof-of-concept testing of the novel cryoprotectant solutions on undifferentiated hESCs is not provided; however, if human ESCs and other progenitor cell lines do behave similarly, only slight improvements would be expected to be observed which may not have a significant impact on applications that depend on cryopreservation. Another more minor issue is that 0.5 degrees C/min as a freezing rate may not be optimum. While slower freezing does permit samples to approach equilibrium, faster rates are better for many cell types. A number of key elements in the experimental design are not described. For example, the cell lines to be tested are not indicated in the proposal. The text says they are listed in Figure 2, but they are not, and this information is critical since a reasonable starting point for development of clone-specific methods is an optimized protocol for similar cell types. The specific cryoprotectants to be tested also are not listed. In addition, the length(s) of time in cryostorage and storage conditions are not indicated. Many cell types that are difficult to preserve exhibit substantial viability following short term-freezes but not long-term freezes. Perhaps a less extensive characterization, but performed over multiple samples frozen under different conditions would be more illuminating. Finally, the time point(s) at which post-thaw characterization will be performed is not indicated. The effects of thawing rate, which is as critical as freezing rate for many cell types because cells require a certain amount of time to return to normal gene expression and function, are not discussed. Reviewers highlighted several additional issues. First, the applicants propose to use gene expression profiling to understand the response of the progenitor cell lines to various cryopreservation methods. While it is likely that pre- and post-thaw characterizations by microarrays and gene expression profiling will yield differences, it is not clear what these differences will indicate. Full genome transcriptional profiling is probably not necessary – expression of lineage-specific genes and stress response genes probably would suffice. IHC methods which look at changes at the cellular level would also be informative but these are not proposed. In addition, it is possible that cryopreservation will induce de-differentiation of the progenitor cells in the sense that a progenitor cell state may be relatively unstable. Considerations of what, if anything, the investigators expect to find here are not discussed which reflects a lack of experience in the fields of stem cell and developmental biology. Second, Aim 2 implicitly assumes the mechanism of cell death is related to osmotic shock or cryoprotectant toxicity. In fact, mechanisms including ice formation or apoptosis may dominate for many cell types, including hESCs. In such cases, the proposed methods of developing cryopreservation protocols would be less effective. Third, genetic modification of hESCs to express murine Sphk1 is potentially problematic for multiple reasons. First, such expression will likely alter global transcriptional profiles and differentiation outcomes during the attempted generation of the desired cell clones. Also, genetic modification is undesirable in the generation of cells for human therapies. Direct addition of S1P, proposed as an alternative, would reduce some of these problems as the S1P effects would be temporary, but this method may be less effective. In fact, the rational behind S1P as a potential serum substitute is rather unclear. hESCs viability decreases dramatically in serum-free medium, but the mechanism has not been identified, and enhancement of viability in serum seems a more likely explanation. DISCUSSION: Better cryopreservation methods would be useful for the field, and applying the investigator's expertise in cryopreservation to hESC is a great idea. The applicant is a leader in the field of S1P biology, and the ideas in the proposal are straight-forward with a rational scientific strategy designed to give a clear read-out and yes or no answers. Unfortunately, the remainder of the proposal doesn't support testing these ideas, and the weaknesses override the positive aspects. For example, there is too little preliminary data on the ACT mixed populations of cells (not lines), and on the key concept of testing for solutions for cryopreservation. The PI has very little expertise in hESC and doesn't describe culture methods that could affect the success of cryopreservation. In fact, there is no assessment of the quality of the cells before cryopreservation, which is a critical component of the experiments, and reviewers feel that this reflects the PI's lack of experience with stem cells. Generalizable approaches to improving cryopreservation have been tried for nearly 30 years, and they simply don't appear to work. Reviewers found parts of the application to be quite valuable and should future funding opportunities arise these should be considered. For example, the sections of the proposal describing the testing of cryopreservation techniques could be separated from the differentiation aims and described in more detail to make a smaller, more focused proposal. In addition, a comparison of the proposed methods with other published hESC cryopreservation methods that are currently in wide use would be useful.

Annual number of accidents (with > 7 tonnes of oil spilt) and volume of oil spilt in EU‑25 for accidental oil spills where > 7 tonnes of oil was spilt
Additional information
Spills shown are over 7 tonnes. Oil spilt in an incident means all oil lost to the environment, including that which is burnt or remains in a sunken vessel. Despite the fact that the vast majority of spills are less than 7 tonnes, data on numbers and volumes for small spills are unreliable and such accidents are regarded to have a relatively small contribution to the overall quantity of oil spilled into the marine environment as a result of tanker accidents.

Sons of Tito Jackson and the late Delores Martes, talented brothers Tariano Adaryll "Taj," Taryll Adren, and Tito Joseph "TJ" call the extraordinary Michael Jackson uncle and famed singer Janet Jackson aunt. The three young Jacksons studied and performed together for years, perfecting their vocal style and learning by watching. The group started out under the name Three T's, but later shortened it to simply 3T. In 1992, the handsome threesome got the chance to write musical numbers for a television series about some members of their famous family, [RoviLink="VW"]The Jacksons: An American Dream. 3T also worked on soundtracks for the movies [RoviLink="VW"]Free Willy and [RoviLink="VW"]Free Willy 2.
In 1995, 3T released its debut album, Brotherhood, under the Sony Records label. "Sexual Attention," "Memories," and "Words Without Meaning" are some of the soulful numbers on the group's first full-length effort. Over the next five years, there were a number of singles, like "I Need You," "Gotta Be You," "Tease Me," and "Anything." The brothers also worked on another soundtrack for the big Will Smith hit film [RoviLink="VW"]Men in Black. Taj, Taryll, and TJ have turned much of their attention to a music label of their own making. TTT Music began operation in January of 2000. ~ Charlotte Dillon

Allison Priess has been living with uncontrollable epilepsy for the past 12 years. To help ease the financial burden, a long-time friend is organizing a benefit.
Several seizures a week have left the 28-year-old with a broken nose and jaw more than once, and bruises on her face. Now, her shoulder needs to be replaced from falling on it too many times.
"It's been getting more difficult and challenging for Allison and her family, and it was just kind of time to try and do something to help," friend Mary Anderson said.
So, Anderson has decided to hold a benefit to help raise money for the family's medical expenses. Both Anderson and Allison's mother said she always puts others before herself.
Allison said this kind of attention is something she isn't used to.
"Really was hard for me to think that other people would want to do those types of things for me," Allison said.
The benefit will be held at Club Q in Lincoln on Nov. 10, and will feature a drag king and queen show, art show and raffle–auction.
Allison's mom said she is humbled by the amount of support she's already seen to help get the benefit underway.
"Part of her disease is that she gets kind of isolated, so it's great to know that they're going to help her and that people want to come out," Jana Kauble said. "And her friends will come out and kind of have a party for her."
