Is bioprospecting a viable strategy for conserving tropical ecosystems?
AbstractThis paper explores whether bioprospecting can reasonably be expected to change rural incentives to conserve tropical ecosystems. Bioprospecting advocates posit that the prospect of discovery ofbiota of immense commercial worth offers an avenue to increase the valuation of nature and endogenously reduce consumptive use of habitat. We consider the microeconomic mechanisms by which bioprospecting might affect incentives and the distributional consequences of these effects.

Brollopsbesvar (1964)
Screen: Life on the Farm:Wedding Is Subject of Import From Sweden
SCANDINAVIAN rural life may be rough and thankless, but there is little doubt that it can be rousingly Rabelaisian on occasion if "Swedish Wedding Night" is any criterion.
The import, which was exposed at the Paris Theater yesterday, now and again underscores with touches of poetic beauty the tormented existence of defeated, love-hungry women and their lost, cloddish or bestial menfolk. But it presents largely a confused Brueghel scene, without that artist's genius for laughter. Its major point seems to be that sex is the refuge of the lonely rustic, his wife and his daughter, an idea that is hardly new.
Despite the English subtitles, the screen play by Lars Widding does not completely explain the complexities of these lower depths. The general idea finally is made fairly clear, however.
Jarl Kulle, an oafish but well-to-do widowed butcher, is about to marry Christina Schollin, who, it turns out, loves and is pregnant by Lars Passgard, an itinerant farmhand. There are indications that her sister, Catrin Westerlund, who has an illegitimate son, also feels amorous towards him.
Lena Hansson, as Mr. Kulle's daughter, yearns for her first love. There is some hanky-panky between Yvonne Lombard, Mr. Kulle's maid, and Lars Lind. Tor Isedal, the bride's brother, is having tough sledding with his girl, Ulla Edin. Claes Esphagen is no match for his man-crazy wife, Margareta Krook. And the best man, Lars Ekborg, a quietly designing type, manages to take over the nuptial duties on this explosive "Wedding Night."
Real fireworks cap the ceremony, but not before the wedding party gets roaring drunk and is involved in a poker game, brawls and tragedy (when Passgard is found hanged). Director Ake Falck, apparently a literal-minded man, presents his sex raw, and nude, on several occasions: Miss Schollin is seen submitting to her violation on her nuptial bed and struggling with her lover, and Miss Hansson bathes.
Miss Schollin presents a touching figure as the pretty, forlorn bride who sees all too clearly the bleak and loveless future that awaits her. Miss Hansson, too, is pathetic and sadly understanding as the virgin whose first liaison is not appreciated by the lucky man. Jarl Kulle's portrayal of the bridegroom and Lars Ekborg's stint as the best man, are broad burlesques.
But Isa Quensel and Edvin Adolphson, as the bride's aged parents, and Georg Arlin, as an elderly, addled friend who once had dreams of an operatic career, add touches of true pathos.
"We have to take what we have and try to be happy," says the bride's mother with the wisdom derived from age and tragedy. Despite this gray and soberly philosophical view, the principals and guests at this "Wedding Night" mainly seem to illustrate that "Tobacco Road" can extend as far as Sweden.
SWEDISH WEDDING NIGHT; screen play by Lars Widding; directed by Ake Falck; produced by Tore Sjoberg and Lorens Marmstedt; a Minerva Film Production presented by Royal Films International. At the Paris, 4 West 58th Street. Running time: 95 minutes.

Prediction and negative-delay filters: Five things you should know
January 18, 2012 | Kendall Castor-Perry | 222902919
The Filter Wizard aka Kendall Castor-Perry kicks of 2012 by posing five central questions whose answers can help designers navigate through the variety of prediction and negative delay filtering solutions.
Page 1 of 9All systems, including filters, are causal. That means they can't produce a response to an (unpredictable) stimulus before that stimulus arrives. So, how the heck can you build a filter that 'predicts' something? Well, it all depends on how high you set your sights for the quality and the relevance of that prediction.
So, riffing on the Five Things You Should Know format that was very popular last time, let's ask five central questions whose answers can help us navigate through this filtery quagmire.
How do filters delay signals?
Information can be impressed on a signal in many ways, and it always takes a finite amount of time to pass through a processing system. You'll be very familiar with the concept of the propagation delay of a digital block. It's simply the time elapsed between some state change at the input to the corresponding state change at the output of that block. The digital-minded reader's first thought might be of a stream of '1's and '0's, expressed physically as detectably different voltage or current levels. Propagation delay is fine for such signals, but not meaningful when we consider analog signals that don't really have defining features associated with particular points in time.
We often lowpass-filter signals and data sequences to get rid of 'noise' high-frequency variations that weve decided have no meaning and are getting in the way of observing a more important underlying feature. The filtering process can lend our observation a rather 'heavy touch', though; it's definitely a case of the observer affecting the observation. The most obvious consequence of conventional filtering, when we view the response graphically, is that theres clearly a time delay between variations in the input signal and corresponding variations in the filtered output. Well see this clearly on a test signal in a moment when we look at some examples.

text: Home > Medical > Cancer > Living with cancer 15 February 2011 Living with cancer - tips for daily living There are things you can do to make your life easier while you are living with, or recovering from cancer. 0 Quiz Cancer: are you at risk? » Girl 'given' HIV to fight her cancer CANSA CEO responds to Government's HPV vaccine roll-out Water, water everywhere. Drink at least eight to ten glasses of water per day. This not only prevents constipation, but helps your kidneys to cope with the medication you may be taking. Short cuts. If you are going to have chemotherapy, chances are that your hair may fall out. If you cut it short before the time – this way there will be much less hair to lose and the change will not be that remarkable, should your hair fall out. Cut out the coffee. If you have problems with diarrhoea, caffeine in any form will make this worse. Remember that there are many cola drinks that contain caffeine – look out for these. Watch your temperature. You are most susceptible to bacterial infections 7-12 days after chemotherapy. Watch out for any signs of an increasing temperature and go and see your doctor. Wash your hands frequently and avoid close contact with anyone who is ill, as you are also very susceptible to viral infections. Three meals a day. If you are on any type of cancer medication, you should not skip meals. A small meal is better than no meal at all. Nausea is often a problem, especially if you have had chemotherapy. An empty stomach will worsen all symptoms that you do have. Starches such as rice and bread and potatoes are generally well tolerated. Remember fruit and vegetables are good for you too. Bedknobs and broomsticks. Delegate as much of the heavy housework as you can. The things that you do have to do, should be spread out over the week. Remember that fitting long handles on brooms and dusters can alleviate the bending you have to do normally. Take regular breaks and get a high chair so that you can wash dishes and iron while sitting down. Be freezerwise. If you are living by yourself, cook more than you need on the days you are feeling better. You will be very grateful on other days if you can just pop something into the microwave. Put your money where your mouth is. Spend money on decent mouthwash – chemotherapy as well as other cancer treatments can play havoc with the inside of your mouth. The cells inside your mouth are rapidly dividing cells – the ones targeted by chemotherapy. You may develop mouth ulcers. A mouth wash and regular brushing with a soft toothbrush could go a long way towards preventing mouth ulcers. Enjoy yourself. Just because you have cancer doesn't mean that you have to stop doing all the things you really enjoy, whether it is seeing people, going to the movies, reading, watching sport, cooking, going to the theatre, going to the pub. You might have to make minor adjustments to make things a little easier, but it is important that you should enjoy yourself as well. The magic of sleep. Sleep gives your body a chance to regenerate and recover. Usually adults need about seven hours. Try and get an extra hour of sleep every day, if possible. The medication you take can put extra stress on the body – try for an afternoon nap as well. Get some fresh air. Even if you are not well enough to exercise, an hour or two in the sunshine or somewhere outside where it is pretty can do wonders for your sense of wellbeing. If you are well enough to go for a walk, do so – walking is pleasant and very beneficial exercise. Friends indeed. This is the time when you will find out who your true friends are. When you are having a tough time, or need someone to talk to, or need to go out somewhere nice like the movies, friends are invaluable. Don't be afraid to ask – chances are you would have been there for them had the situation been reversed. No pain, no pain. With modern medical science being what it is, there is no reason why anyone should endure inordinate pain on an ongoing basis. If your painkillers do not work, or if they have nasty side effects, get something else from your doctor. Bathroom blues. Move into the bedroom closest to the bathroom, especially if you have difficulty moving. Have a handrail installed if you need it. Remember that showering is always easier than bathing. Put a panic button in the bathroom in case you fall or get stuck or injured. Bring on the entertainment. Many people who spend long periods of time in bed complain of boredom. There is much that can be done to alleviate this. The radio, magazines and books, cable TV, books on tape and videos are but a few examples of things that can be done to combat boredom. Get a book or magazine holder, so that you don't have to balance the weight of books or magazines while you are reading. Life line. Get a telephone next to your bed. This is a good idea not only in an emergency, but is also nice for social contact. A cellphone that you can carry around in the house with you is also great. Preprogramme emergency numbers.

text: Palm Inc., the maker of hand-held computers and software, said yesterday that its board of directors had approved a 1-for-20 reverse stock split. The move is intended to avoid a Nasdaq delisting by bolstering the company's share price. Palm, whose stock price has plummeted from $165 a share at its March 2000 initial offering to 65 cents yesterday, has suffered from rollout problems, weak demand and stiff competition from Microsoft. Reverse splits reduce the number of shares outstanding but do not alter the company's market value. The capitalization of Palm, which once exceeded that of Ford Motor, has buckled with the collapsing high-technology bubble. Palm is now worth about $376 million and has reported losses in six of the last seven quarters. In August, Palm was removed from the Standard & Poor's 500-stock index. Andrew Zipern (NYT)

"Time Flies In Taipei" Preview @ AMPM GalleryGraffiti // Wednesday, May 16, 2012
Taipei is one long jet-lagged flight away from where we rest our head, but if you are on the island of Taiwan this Saturday night there is a good art show to check out. Graffiti writers, Optimist and Stuey, will be showing new work at the AMPM Gallery in a show entitled Time Flies in Taipei. Optimist sent over a video and some exclusive preview shots of work that will be on display. Go!
Marc Jacobs > KidultGraffiti // Wednesday, May 16, 2012
The fire extinguisher prankster who has been blasting the storefronts of many known high end fashion boutiques in frustration of a culture becoming commercialized, recently decorated the store front of Marc Jacobs with the word "art" in Soho, Ny. In a crafty retaliation, Marc Jacobs printed the image of the storefront on a t-shirt and is now retailing them for $689, with a "Kidult signed" t-shirt being a little cheaper for the consumer, ouch.

Abbas was ready to back Olmert deal, Bush memoir says
By HILARY LEILA KRIEGER
Agreement was to include handing over "vast majority" of West Bank and building tunnel to Gaza; Barbara Bush called son "first Jewish president."
President G.W. Bush with Olmert and Abbas

Bush also excoriates the US intelligence agencies that famously concluded in late 2007 that Iran had halted production of a nuclear weapon, denying him any possible military option, and notes that he rejected an appeal by Olmert earlier in the year to bomb a Syrian nuclear facility.
'Impossible to return to talks with current Israeli gov't'
US submits to UN human rights review for the first time
"We devised a process to turn [Olmert's] private offer into a public agreement," Bush writes of the secret peace deal worked out between the then-prime minister of Israel and Palestinian Authority president. "Olmert would travel to Washington and deposit his proposal with me. Abbas would announce that the plan was in line with Palestinian interests. I would call the leaders together to finalize the deal."
That agreement was to include handing over the "vast majority" of the West Bank to the Palestinians, building a tunnel to connect it to the Gaza Strip, allowing a "limited number" of Palestinian refugees into Israel, establishing Jerusalem as a joint capital and entrusting control of the holy sites to "a panel of nonpolitical elders."
But then Olmert was forced to resign his premiership because of corruption allegations, and Abbas "didn't want to make an agreement with a prime minister on his way out of office," Bush relates.
The 497 pages of
Decision Points
detail the difficult choices Bush made over the course of his two-term presidency, including on Iraq, Afghanistan and the economic crisis. While he occasionally expresses compunction, as when he acknowledges, "I regret that I ended my presidency with the Iranian issue unresolved," he mostly justifies the decisions he made and draws positive lessons even from adverse outcomes.
For instance, though Bush admits that he felt disappointment that a deal was never sealed between Olmert and Abbas, he still concludes, "I was pleased with the progress we had made."
And when it comes to his push to include Hamas, considered a terrorist organization by the US, in the Palestinian Legislative Council elections of 2005 – which the Islamist movement won – Bush remains resolute.
"America could not be in the position of endorsing elections only when we liked the projected outcome," he explains, adding that the vote "forced a decision in Hamas" about whether it would govern or revert to violence.
Following Hamas's coup in Gaza in 2007, Bush notes his support for Israel's blockade excluding only the most basic humanitarian needs from Gaza so Palestinians there "would see a vivid contrast between their living conditions under Hamas and those under the democratic leader, Abbas."
Bush's tone is less sanguine when it comes to Iran and the first presidential election of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, with his professed messianism combined with verbal attacks on Israel and the Holocaust. "I started to worry we were dealing with more than just a dangerous leader. This guy could be nuts."
Amid his rising conviction that Iran was pursuing a nuclear weapon, Bush settles on a policy of sanctions and multilateral diplomacy while stressing, "Military action would always be on the table, but it would be my last resort."
But he expresses outrage at learning that his own intelligence agencies had undercut that option.
He describes the "eye-popping declaration" on the 2007 National Intelligence Estimate judging with "high confidence" that Iran had halted its nuclear weapons program.
"Israel and our Arab allies found themselves in a rare moment of unity. Both were deeply concerned about Iran and furious with the United States over the NIE," he says of the report's immediate backlash.
Bush told King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia soon afterward, "The NIE was produced independently by our intelligence community. I'm as angry about it as you are."
Bush speculates that the intelligence agencies were trying to avoid the mistakes made in Iraq – when they had been over-zealous in their intelligence conclusions – but he concludes, "whatever the explanation, the NIE had a big impact – and not a good one."
Bush writes positively about the importance of the US relationship with Israel and the Jewish state's justified concerns over its security, relating how a helicopter ride he took with Ariel Sharon, "a bull of a man," in 1998 while he was governor of Texas made him "convinced that we had a responsibility to keep the relationship strong."
At one point his mother, former first lady Barbara Bush, even referred to him as the first "Jewish president" after his landmark speech in 2002 calling for a democratic Palestinian state run by a new leadership, i.e. not by then-president Yasser Arafat.
"Shortly after the speech, Mother called," Bush relates. "'How's the first Jewish president doing?' she asked. I had a funny feeling she disagreed with my policy. That meant Dad [former president George H.W. Bush] probably did as well." Even so, Bush "laughed off the wisecrack," though he knew he was in for criticism for taking a position his vice president, secretary of defense and secretary of state opposed.
Still, Bush doesn't shy away from pointing to disagreements he had with Israel during his tenure, including criticism of Olmert's handling of the Second Lebanon War in 2006.
Bush notes that he was supportive of Olmert going after Hizbullah following its cross-border attack on IDF soldiers.
He also held the international community at bay to give time for Israel to badly damage the terrorist group and its backers in Damascus and Teheran.
"Unfortunately they mishandled their opportunity," he says, pointing to Israel bombing campaigns "of questionable military value," including of sites in northern Lebanon.
Bush also castigates Olmert for declaring that he wouldn't attack Syria, a major Hizbullah patron.
"Removing the threat of retaliation let Syria off the hook and emboldened them to continue their support for Hizbullah," he chides. Eventually, as more of the world shifted against Israel, Bush lifted his opposition to a UN-brokered cease-fire, to avoid alienating the international community he wanted to join him in isolating Syria and Iran.
His esteem for Israel's military capabilities was only restored after, he states, Olmert authorized a pinpoint operation on a nuclear site Syria was constructing in 2007. Bush describes how Olmert urged the US to take out the target, but Bush wanted to use diplomacy instead to pressure Syria.
Once the attack was completed, Bush urged Olmert to make it public to use it against Damascus, but Olmert wanted to keep it quiet so as not to provoke a Syrian backlash.
"This was his operation, and I felt an obligation to respect his wishes. I kept quiet, even though I felt we were missing an opportunity," Bush writes.
"The bombing demonstrated Israel's willingness to act alone. Prime minister Olmert hadn't asked for a green light and I hadn't given one. He had done what he believed was necessary to protect Israel," Bush writes.

A group of Sioux Falls community members and business leaders wants you to vote "No" to an outdoor pool, because they want a public indoor pool instead.
Community Swim 365 held an open house Monday, giving away t-shirts and yard signs stating their position. The proponents of an indoor aquatics center say a vote "No" on April 8th is the first step.
"You know the people that we talk to when you explain that this is a public indoor pool that can be used 300 plus days out of the year, usually the reaction we get is 'Well, that's a no brainer'. So, we're excited with the momentum we have right now," said Susie Patrick, the co-chair of Community Swim 365.
Community Swim 365 says right now is a critical time to support an indoor pool because the Parks and Rec Department has the funding for it.

Love this product! This oil has been a huge treat for my skin in the harsh drying winter weather.

Fabulous Oil I am really impressed with this product, its wonderful. My skin was getting really dehydrated over the winter months and this has brought it back to life. I use it every night before bed and it sinks into the skin beautifully. It is great value for money as well, this will last for months as you only need a few drops.

it makes enough for at least 4 days, three meals a day. total cost is 12 dollars. i buy the mushrooms and chicken at sams club. sounds crazy but it taste good and most importantly it's working. i'm not hungry . if i feel the urge to cheat i go get a fork full of my mixture. i chew very slowly as to enjoy my meal.
i have added a small banana and grapes for my snacks and to be a fix for my sweet tooth.
you can add other foods into your menu. just know what works with your body chemistry.
I have gone from 198 to 164 pounds. i can now fit into a size 14 comfortably. i feel so much better. think of carrying a 2 year old around your waist every minute of every day. no i am not done. on the obese chart i have gone from being obese to just plain fat. my goal is to drop another 22 pounds. then i will be happy, healthy and never allow myself to get in this condition again.
one might say eating the same food every day would get boring. not true. when you look in the mirror and can see the difference it's worth
i went to the doctor. for the first time in a long time i was not ashamed to get on the scale. i did not have to get beet red because doctor said i was over weight. it felt GREAT.
Thank You,Carol.
Welcome to the group
I retired 12 years ago and put on 50 ugly pounds. Got tired of looking
at the fat slob in the mirror. I was a long distance truck driver and tipped the
scale at 165 lbs. I drove for 35 years and never gained an ounce. I am not
happy at this weight and want to be 165 by Aug.31/12. Wish me luck as this
is the 1st time on a diet.

Monroeville police investigate gas-station robberyJanuary 21, 2013 10:45 AM

Monroeville police today are investigating a Sunday night armed robbery at a gas station on Route 48.
Monroeville police Chief Doug Cole said a man entered Steve's Sunoco at 2700 Mosside Blvd., also known as Route 48, shortly after 8:45 p.m. and pointed at handgun at the store attendant, demanding money.
The man made off on foot with an unidentified amount of cash and left the gas station, situated in a busy, well-lit area along a main artery.
Police described him as 5-foot-10 with a thin build. He was wearing a gray hoodie, a black scarf tied around his mouth and sagging jeans that exposed red boxers.
Chief Cole said the robbery was Monroeville's first of 2013 and likely the first in a few months.
Monroeville police usually expect a "handful" around Christmas but saw none this past season.
"We get very few robberies," Chief Cole said.
Police asked anyone with information to call 412-856-1111.mobilehome - breaking - neigh_east

CHICAGO, July 8, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Mac Duggal sponsored a BMW Car Giveaway to commemorate his 30th anniversary as a fashion designer. This giveaway awarded a new BMW to Mac Duggal retailer Elizabeth Rodgers of The Perfect Dress in Trenton MI. The sweepstakes drawing was held at Mac Duggal's Fashion Gala for the 2015 Spring Collection.
At the 3 day event featuring fashion shows and giveaways, Mac Duggal welcomed hundreds of retailers from thirteen countries. From Brazil to India, the Mac Duggal guests celebrated the introduction of the upcoming Spring 2015 Collection. Beautiful prom gowns, elegant couture dresses, and sparkling evening wear were paraded across the runway to the applause of the exhilarated guests.
As the third and final night came to a close, one lucky retailer was chosen as the winner of a brand new car. It was also announced that a Mercedes-Benz would be given away to a Mac Duggal retailer at next year's Gala.
According to Mac Duggal, "I am blessed to have so many wonderful customers. I would have been happy for any store that attended our Spring Gala to have driven home in their new BMW. That being said, two of the sweetest, most loyal, intelligent businesswomen were the lucky winners and I am thrilled for them".
The winner of the BMW, Elizabeth Rodgers, had a premonition that she might be holding the lucky ticket. After receiving what turned out to be the winning ticket a year ago, she kept the stub in her wallet attached to her license. Every day over the course of the past year, Elizabeth opened her wallet and told herself "that's my car".
