Transhumanist Bankers Plan Robotic Future
2013 08 27
By Julian Rose |
Activist Post
In the Future Nature and Technology Will Work as One
International airports in Britain greet arrivals and departures with the letters HSBC and the words The Worlds Bank plastered boldly over plane docking bays and passenger corridors. For those not in the know HSBC is A British multinational banking and financial services organisation headquartered in London, England. It is One of the largest banking and financial services institutions in the world, servicing around fifty eight million customers through four Global Businesses.
Now the thing about HSBC is that it is interested in more than just banking (in common with most others) and it believes that it has seen the future.
Walking down the ramp to enter the plane for Poland at Londons Stansted airport, I was greeted once again by HSBCs pervasive branding. However this time, the letters appeared above a large picture of a bumble bee . . . but the humble bumble didnt look quite right; it had been half engineered into a bee-bot. In large letters above this unfortunate insect appear the words In The Future Nature and Technology Will Work as One.
Now mechanised, non animal bots (officially nano-bots) are the latest little flying military spy machines. No bigger than an actual bee they are apparently capable of flying in swarms straight through your open living or bedroom window and flying out again replete with photographic data gleaned while hovering around your home. Their creators suggest that the bots might be capable of dispensing a lethal sting into their victim as well. Its like mini drone technology whose intended victims are none other than ... us?
Seeing In the Future Nature and Technology Will Work as One with HSBC in bold above it gave me on of those Oh my God! moments. HSBC is implicated up to its neck in most of the rotten scams that the banking fraternity has pulled on its customers over the past decade or so and is now continuing in the same vein by planting an almost surreally dark message into the public mind.
The message being conveyed is simple enough: the bankers are to continue their power play for total control by announcing their backing of the ultimate mutation of nature.
The ultimate mutation of nature?

Horror Movie Update - More CHUCKY Films on the Way!
Don Mancini, Brad Dourif, Alex Vincent, Fiona Dourif, and Danielle Bisutti were on hand at New York's Comic Con to promote the new DVD release of Curse of Chucky (now available). Guess what was revealed during the Harry Knowles moderated panel?
According to wegotthiscovered.com "Trust me, if it's up to Don Mancini, there will be a bevy of Chucky movies to come, and more tonally shifting stuff. Referring to Glen/Glenda showing up again, Mancini said that probably won't happen until the "pendulum swings back" from the dark, Gothic vibe Chucky once again adapted, but he expressed excited interest in bringing back Chucky's kin as he "loves the characters" and absolutely hasn't counted the children out of any future films."
Terror returns in a deceptively tiny package when Curse of Chucky, the newest installment of the chilling Child's Play franchise, comes exclusively to Blu-Ray and DVD on October 8, 2013, from Universal 1440 Entertainment, a production entity of Universal Studios Home Entertainment. Also available on Digital on September 24, 2013, Curse of Chucky reunites franchise creators Don Mancini and David Kirschner as Chucky returns to horrify viewers in an all-new, unrated chapter of the blood-soaked suspense saga that James Oster of ArrowInTheHead.com gleefully calls "Delightfully deadly."
"It has been a quarter of a century since fans were first petrified by Toyland's most lethal serial killer in Child's Play" said Glenn Ross, General Manager and Executive Vice President, Universal 1440 Entertainment. "Now, twenty-five years later, the deadly legacy continues as Chucky resumes his disturbing reign of terror, delivering more of the blood-curdling scares and bone-chilling twists that have cemented his place as one of the world's most legendary horror film icons."
Written and directed by Mancini, Curse of Chucky finds a family imperiled by the murderous doll that launched a generation's nightmares determined to finish a job that was started long ago. The film stars Fiona Dourif (The Master, "True Blood"), A Martinez ("Longmire," "General Hospital"), Danielle Bisutti (Get Smart, "CSI: Miami") and Brennan Elliott ("Flight 93," Double Jeopardy), with Brad Dourif (The Lord of the Rings) once again providing the voice of Chucky, the homicidal plaything inhabited by the spirit of notorious serial killer Charles Lee Ray.

George Will: Digesting the Twinkies' lessons
"All Gods were immortal."
- Stanislaw Lec
And also brands, the gods of the marketplace. Earthquakes may strike, dynasties may fall and locusts may devour the crops, but Oldsmobile and Pan Am are forever. Never mind.
But about the death of Twinkies: Write obituaries in the subjunctive mood. Like Lazarus, but for a reason more mundane than miraculous, this confection may be resurrected. In any case, the crisis of Hostess Brands Inc., the maker of Twinkies, involves two potent lessons. First, market forces will have their way. Second, never underestimate baby boomer nostalgia, which is acute narcissism. The Twinkies melodrama has the boomers thinking - as usual, about themselves: If an 82-year-old brand can die, so can we. Is that even legal?
The late Daniel Boorstin, historian and Librarian of Congress, said Americans belong to "consumption communities." Are you a Ford or Chevy person? Sears Roebuck or Montgomery Ward? Camels or Chesterfields? Wooed by advertising, people plight their troths to brands in marriages that often are more durable than boomers' actual marriages.
Hostess, which had 18,500 employees making and distributing more than 30 brands made in 36 plants, had been in and out of bankruptcy several times since 2004. Its terminal crisis began on Nov. 9 when thousands of members of the bakers union went out on strike to protest wage, health care and pension cuts imposed by a court. The bakers objected to a 17 percent increase in their contribution for their health care benefits.
Amazingly, Washington did not offer Hostess a bailout. This discriminatory policy may be a constitutional violation - denial of equal protection of the laws. Since the onset of the financial crisis, the government has decided that some SIFIs are TBTF - some systemically important financial institutions are too big to fail. Why, any fair-minded person will ask, was Hostess not TBTF?
Granted, it was not big in the technical, crabbed, hairsplitting, narrow-minded way that "big" is normally understood, as a boring matter of mere size. It was, however, big in what matters most - in boomers' minds. They fondly remember opening their Roy Rogers or Hopalong Cassidy or Davy Crockett lunchboxes at school and finding Twinkies nestled next to peanut butter and jelly sandwiches made of Wonder Bread (another endangered Hostess species). Stendhal said that the only way ice cream could be better is if it were a sin. Boomers, a generation of food scolds, became adults who considered Twinkies and other sugary things sinful. They should be shedding scalding tears of remorse.
Anyway, why GM and not Hostess? The Troubled Asset Relief Program, aka TARP, was passed to rescue financial institutions. But Washington reasoned: "What's legality among cronies?" So soon TARP was succoring GM, which was not a financial institution. It was not even a car company. It was a health care provider unsuccessfully trying to sell cars fast enough to generate enough revenue to pay health benefits for its employees and approximately twice as many retirees.
Hostess had in its far-flung operations 372 collective bargaining agreements with various unions that had sought and received - shed no tears for complicit management - some interesting benefits. The Teamsters liked the rule that bread and pastries might be going to the same place but must go in different trucks.
The bakers rejected management's final offer by a voice vote. The Teamsters, who favored a compromise, wanted there to be a secret ballot. This is insouciant insolence by the Teamsters, who are situational ethicists. In Washington, operating from impressive headquarters located on prime real estate at the foot of Capitol Hill, the union's leadership has lobbied Congress for the Employee Free Choice Act. That is the Orwellian title of legislation that would effectively abolish employees' right to secret ballots in unionization elections, replacing them with "card check," whereby individuals confronted by union organizers sign a card indicating support for the union.
The market said that Hostess as configured made no sense. If, however, Twinkies and perhaps other Hostess brands retain value, the market will say so, and someone will produce them. Probably in a right-to-work state, which is how "entrepreneurial federalism" (another Boorstin phrase) should work: Business moves to states that make it welcome.
Whatever else a hospital ought to do, supposedly said Florence Nightingale, it ought not to spread disease. And whatever else unions should do, they should not put employers out of business.

NASA Operation IceBridge Survey Flight Captures Breathtaking Views of Greenland [PHOTOS]

NASA Operation IceBridge Survey Flight Captures Breathtaking View of Greenland [PHOTOS]
A look at a new world where ice is as natural as soil has been given importance as NASA IceBridge mission presents the world an array of Greenland's breathtaking view.
The IceBridge mission, also known NASA "Operation IceBridge," is a six-year airborne mission. The survey flight, according to NASA, is a mission that offers views of the Arctic and Antarctic ice sheets, ice shelves and sea ice.
NASA said the survey flight will provide the scientists the help to "bridge the gap" between the NASA's Ice, Cloud and Land Elevation Satellite (ICESat)" and the NASA's ICESat-2.
According to NASA, ICESat is the standard Earth Observing mission for measuring the mass balance of ice sheet, cloud and aerosol heights and land topography and vegetation characteristics, while ICESat-2 is the second generation ICESat.
As stated by NASA, ICESat had been in orbit since 2003, but had stopped in 2009, while ICESat 2 is yet to take flight in early 2016.
The IceBridge survey flights are set to be done in March-May over Greenland and October-November over Antarctica. There are other smaller airborne surveys worldwide which are also part of the IceBridge campaign.
On March 26, NASA reported that the IceBridge team moved from Thule Air Base where it was currently at and went out to measure thick multiyear ice in Ellesmere Island. But the weather had not been entirely cooperative so IceBridge team had to say in the area for another day. March 28 was when the IceBridge team finally got the chance to move ahead and go to Canada.
On April 1 the IceBridge team flew from Thule toward Canada's Ellesmere Island to the west of Greenland, and the IceBridge team was reported to continue its study of the sea ice as part of its 2014 Arctic campaign.
Images of the Canadian glaciers were then captured, presenting the world a look of a place where nobody, except scientists, have really been able to step foot on.
According to NASA, IceBridge researchers were using the airborne topographic mapper laser altimeter to measure ice surface elevation and the multichannel coherent radar depth sounder as a way to measure the thickness and mapping the location of the rock beneath the ice.
Also, NASA's IceBridge team was also reported to resurvey a line on Eureka Sound, which is considered to be a high Arctic waterway in Qikiqtaaluk, Nunavut, Canada.

|Jay Leno offers his 2012 Fiat 500 Prima Edizione at Gooding & Company's Pebble Beach Auctions in support of Fisher House Foundation
| Gooding & Company, the official auction house of the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, is thrilled to announce that it will present Emmy Award-winning comedian and The Tonight Show host Jay Leno's 2012 Fiat 500 Prima Edizione at its Pebble Beach Auction on Saturday, August 18. The sale of the Mr. Leno's Fiat 500 provides an exciting opportunity to acquire an early collector's edition of Fiat's sensational new 500. In an effort to raise money for and awareness of an important cause close to his heart, Mr. Leno has selected Fisher House Foundation as the beneficiary of his sale proceeds. Fisher House is a nationally praised, four-star, non-profit organization that provides a wide range of services and support to the families of wounded American soldiers.
'I'm thrilled to present our friend Jay Leno's first edition Fiat 500, one of the most talked about modern cars in our automotive industry today,' says President and Founder David Gooding. 'We have great admiration for Jay and hope that the sale of the 500 attracts a great deal of support for Fisher House, an extraordinary humanitarian organization that generously champions our soldiers and their families.'
'We're grateful to Jay Leno for his exemplary and unwavering support of our military families, to help them when they need it the most,' said Ken Fisher, Chairman and CEO of Fisher House Foundation. 'Knowing Jay's passion for cars, and what this one represents to him, we recognize that he is sacrificing something special for what he believes is a greater good. All of Fisher House and the families we serve thank him deeply.'
Jay Leno and his 2012 Fiat 500 Prima Edizione
To celebrate Fiat's return to the American market in 2011, 500 Prima Ediziones were built to honor Fiat's most devoted enthusiasts in the American automotive community. Delivered to Mr. Leno earlier this year, this particular example, car number 00002, is the second new 500 produced for American consumers and the first example ever delivered to a customer. As a Prima Edizione, this Bianco (white) car is distinguished by a black side stripe with '500' detail and a badge on the dash. During a feature segment on his Emmy Award-winning web series, 'Jay Leno's Garage,' Mr. Leno describes this car as 'incredibly fun to drive.' As a special offer to the winning bidder in Pebble Beach, Mr. Leno has extended an invitation for the new owner to visit his garage and car collection near Los Angeles, California. The Fiat's estimate is $25,000–$35,000 and will be offered without reserve.

If you see a man who has hair on his upper lip, across his cheeks, down his sideburns, all around his mouth, and over his chin, completing the circle under his neck, he's sporting a traditional full beard. Such facial hairstyle connotes manliness, self-confidence, and boldness. Do you think a full beard is just right for you? Well, it is so classy when it's well groomed but rugged when it's not. Of course, it has to be maintained. Usually, the longer the beard, the more eccentric a man seems. Do you want such an image? But some men who portray Read more →

While most men try to project a brusque image with their showy and complicated facial hairstyle, there are some men who just want simple whiskers and still keep their manliness intact. They are wearing chin strip, a facial hairstyle which is almost face-naked. Basically, a chin strip is a long soul patch extending all the way down to the tip of one's chin. There are two styles of chin strips. The first style is a rectangle of whiskers wherein the width is uniform from top to bottom. This is the most common chin strip.

Creation in the Old Testament Weekly Lecture Series

Event Time: 7 PM - 8:30 PM
Creation is a central theme of Sacred Scripture. Not only does it begin the Bible; it pervades Israel's self-understanding and shapes its experience of history. It also frames early Jewish attempts to relate human reason to divine revelation. Appreciating the diversity of ways in which creation is invoked in the Old Testament can help us better grasp the development of key doctrines within Christianity and Judaism.

Tiling shower floor or plastic tray
Is there a safe way to tile a shower floor with a drain if I don't use the plastic tray like most showers have?
I heard someone mention there is a plastic tray that you can tile over?
I know the tray has less leakage and mildew mold but the tiles look so much nicer and richer.

I would still only use a tray with up stands, I too like sheets for the walls rather than tiles, I generally used trays with up stands on all four sides, no silicone inside except inside vertical trims to the panels.

I've used plastic bases that you tile on several jobs with good success. Very simple compared to other methods and the finished surface is indistinguishable from traditionally installed tile.

- Text Size
By Afza Fathima | August 26, 2014 12:13 PM EST
According to the Open Minds and Mutual UFO Network witness reporting database, a witness said that on Aug 23, he saw a "giant ship" with a glow move overhead in Waltonville, Jefferson County in Illinois.
REUTERS/Pichi Chuang
Fishing boats are docked at a harbour as Typhoon Matmo approaches the northeastern coastal town of Nanfangao in Ilan county, northern Taiwan, July 22, 2014.
The witness was out fishing with his friends when he noticed the object at a very high altitude. He stated that the object had to be around a half mile long, if not longer, and that the glow wasn't bright but just slight. He was reminded of ships depicted in Hollywood films like that in the Star Wars movie.
He continued that he had seen a lot of things in the sky during the night, but this object was something he'd never seen before.
On Aug 25, the witness submitted an illustration along with his statement. He described the picture as just a basic outline that he made in Paint and that he was unsure of how tall the object was and that the image that he provided was just of the bottom of the object.
While describing the object's movement, he said that it was flying in a straight path moving towards the north from where he was and it flew out of visual range.
The Illinois branch of MUFON is investigating.
UFO Alert Rating System has 5 levels ranging from 1 to 4 with states who report more than 150 UFO sightings have the rating Alert 1, those which have 100 or more Alert 2, 25 reports and more Alert 3, 13 or more Alert 4 and states with less than that an Alert 5.
Illinois has a UFO Alert Rating much higher than the average number of recent reports nationally with the rating being 4 as Illinois had 22 UFO reports in July 2014 which is the 12th highest. California had the highest number of reports at 104 with Alert 2 along with ther states like Texas, Michigan, Ohio, Florida, Pennsylvania and Washington which have either an Alert 2 or 3 based on the reports of July. In total, California had 104 cases in July, 102 in May, 80 in April, 103 in March, 59 in February and 102 in January.
Other states apart from Illinois with Alert 4 rating are Missouri, Colorado, New Jersey, Kentucky, Georgia, Indiana, Oregon, Arizona, Virginia, South Carolina, Alabama and Tennessee.

Article: Useful biomarkers for assessing the adverse health effects of PCBs in allergic children: pediatric molecular epidemiology.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The incidences of childhood allergies have been increasing in recent years in many parts of the world. The development of allergic disorders is attributed to a complex series of interactions between individuals' genetic backgrounds and their immune and psychoneurotic responses to environmental factors. Among the various possible environmental causes of childhood allergies, the early exposure of developing infants to air pollutants and the presence of persistent chemical pollutants such as pesticides have been suggested most frequently. Therefore, it is very important to obtain epidemiological evidence of direct associations between clearly defined adverse health effects and exposure to low levels of pollutants. However, there are no useful biomarkers for assessing such associations. Thus, we planned to establish reliable health-related biomarkers that could be used to investigate these relationships in children. The serum concentrations of several sub-types of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congeners were found to be significantly correlated with interleukin (IL)-8 mRNA expression among asthmatic children. In addition, IL-22 mRNA expression was found to be particularly useful for detecting the effects of environmental pollutants, especially PCB congeners, in a sub-population of vulnerable children who exhibited positive immunoglobulin E (IgE) responses to milk or egg. Furthermore, we detected significant differences in IL-22 mRNA expression between the IgE-negative non-asthmatic subjects and the asthmatic children who exhibited positive IgE reactions toward egg or milk. In conclusion, IL-8 and IL-22 mRNA expressions could be useful biomarkers for detecting sub-populations of children who are particularly vulnerable to the adverse health effects of environmental pollutants, especially PCBs.Environmental Health and Preventive Medicine 10/2014;
Article: Changes in suicide rates in disaster-stricken areas following the Great East Japan Earthquake and their effect on economic factors: an ecological study.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Devastating disasters may increase suicide rates due to mental distress. Previous domestic studies have reported decreased suicide rates among men following disasters. Few reports are available regarding factors associated with disasters, making it difficult to discuss how these events affect suicide rates. This study aimed to observe changes in suicide rates in disaster-stricken and neighboring areas following the Great East Japan Earthquake, and examine associations between suicide rates and economic factors.Environmental Health and Preventive Medicine 10/2014;

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVES: To investigate the short-term effects of low-level hydrogen sulfide (H2S) exposure on oil field workers. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Observational study included 34 patients who work at an oil field. All patients were males with age range of 22-60 years (mean 37 years). The data were collected by systematic questionnaire about symptoms. The inclusion criteria of patients were symptoms related to inhalation of H2S gas in the oil field. The complaints should be frequent and relapsed after each gas exposure and disappeared when there was no gas exposure. Exclusion criteria were the symptoms which experienced with or without H2S exposure. The presence of H2S gas was confirmed by valid gas detector devices. RESULTS: The most frequent presenting symptom was nasal bleeding. It was revealed in 18 patients (52.9 %). This followed by pharyngeal bleeding, gum bleeding, and bloody saliva (mouth bleeding) which were encountered in five cases for each complaint (14.7 %). Other less frequent presenting symptoms were tongue bleeding, bloody sputum, headache, abdominal colic, pharyngeal soreness, fatigue, and sleepiness. CONCLUSIONS: Nasal mucosa was the most vulnerable part to H2S effect. Inhalation of H2S produced upper respiratory tract epithelial damage that led to bleeding from nose, pharynx, gum, tongue, trachea, and bronchi. There were no complaints of asthmatic attack upon exposure to low level of H2S. Sunlight had a significant role in reduction of ambient air H2S level.Environmental Health and Preventive Medicine 10/2014;

Article: Escalating chronic kidney diseases of multi-factorial origin in Sri Lanka: causes, solutions, and recommendations.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: During the last two decades, Sri Lanka, located close to the equator, has experienced an escalating incidence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) of unknown aetiology (CKDue) in dry zonal areas. Similar incidences of unusual CKDs have been reported in the dry zonal, agricultural areas of several other equatorial countries. In Sri Lanka, the incidence of CKDue is highest in the North Central Province (NCP), where approximately 45 % of the country's paddy fields are located. However, in recent years, the disease has spread into areas adjacent to as well as distant from the NCP. The cause of CKD in Sri Lanka is unknown, and may likely due to interactions of different potential agents; thus, CKD is of multi-factorial origin (CKD-mfo). These factors include, the negative effects from overuse of agrochemicals. Nevertheless, the potential interactions and synergism between probable agents have not been studied. This systematic review discusses the proposed hypotheses and causes of CKD-mfo in Sri Lanka, and ways to decrease the incidence of this disease and to eradicate it, and provide some recommendations. During the past decade, a number of groups have investigated this disorder using different methodologies and reported various correlations, but failed to find a cause. Research has focussed on the contamination of water with heavy metals, agrochemicals, hard water, algae, ionicity, climate change, and so forth. Nevertheless, the levels of any of the pollutants or conditions reported in water in NPC are inconsistent not correlated with the prevalence of the disease, and are too low to be the sole cause of CKD-mfo. Meanwhile, several nephrotoxins prevalent in the region, including medications, leptospirosis, toxic herbs, illicit alcohol, locally grown tobacco, and petrochemicals, as well as the effects of changed habits occured over the past four decades have not been studied to date. Taken together, the geographical distribution and overall findings indicate that combinations of factors and/or their interactions are likely to precipitate CKD-mfo, which kills more than 5,000 people annually in Sri Lanka; most victims are middle-aged male farmers. Much anecdotal evidence from this region suggests that consumption of contaminated water is the most likely source of this deadly disease. Although the aetiology is unknown, prevention of this "environmentally acquired" disease seems relatively straightforward. Solutions include (a) preventing environmental pollution, (b) stopping the irresponsible use and decreasing the usage of agrochemicals, and encouraging the use of environmentally friendly agricultural methods, (c) taking proper precautions when using agrochemicals and safe disposal of their containers, (d) changing the risky behaviour of farmers and educating them to preserve the environment, and (e) providing clean potable water to all affected regions. Implementing a well-coordinated, in-depth, region-wide, broad-based research study together with a long-term effective surveillance programme across the country is essential to curbing this disease. Unless firm actions are taken promptly, more than three million healthy people in the country, live in agricultural regions, are at risk for contracting CKD-mfo and succumb to premature deaths, which are preventable.Environmental Health and Preventive Medicine 09/2014;

ABSTRACT: The role of pharmacists in the healthcare settings is expanding and pharmacists are expected to counsel patients and/or caregivers regarding the appropriate use of a drug. However, we believe that communication between healthcare providers and patients may be limited by overestimation of patients' recognition level of medical terms by providers. The purpose of this study was to clarify patients' recognition level of medical terms, mainly related to drugs, as estimated by pharmacists to contribute to improving risk communication in the medical care field.Environmental Health and Preventive Medicine 09/2014;

ABSTRACT: Silica particles and asbestos fibers, which are known as typical causatives of pneumoconiosis, induce lung fibrosis. Moreover, silicosis patients often complicate with autoimmune diseases, and asbestos-exposed patients suffer from malignant diseases such as pleural mesothelioma and lung cancer. We have been conducting experimental studies to investigate altered regulation of self-tolerance caused by silica exposure, including analyses using specimens such as plasma and immunocompetent cells obtained from silicosis patients, as a means of examining the supposition that silica exposure induces molecular and cellular biological alterations of immune cells. These approaches have resulted in the detection of several specific autoantibodies, alterations of CD95/Fas and its related molecules, and evidence of chronic activation of responder T cells and regulatory T cells following silica exposure. In this review, we present details of our investigations as an introduction to scientific approaches examining the immunological effects of environmental and occupational substances.Environmental Health and Preventive Medicine 08/2014;

Article: Non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasmas as a novel candidate for preventive therapy of melanoma.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Due to the increased ultraviolet radiation, the incidence of melanoma is increasing worldwide more than that of any other cancer. In this study, the effects of irradiation of non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasmas (NEAPPs) on benign melanocytic tumors from our original hairless model mice (HL-RET-mice), in which benign melanocytic tumors and melanomas spontaneously develop in the skin stepwise, were examined. Expression levels of melanoma cell adhesion molecule (MCAM) and matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) mRNA in melanomas were higher than those in benign melanocytic tumors in the mice. Repeated irradiation of non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasmas (NEAPPs) for the benign tumors decreased the expression levels of MCAM and MMP-2 mRNA in the tumors from the mice. Previous studies showed that MCAM sites are upstream of MMP-2, that MCAM regulates transcription of MMP-2 in melanoma cells and that MMP-2 is associated with the conversion of a benign tumor to a malignant tumor. Therefore, our results suggest that the NEAPP irradiation-mediated decrease in the expression level of MMP-2 in benign melanocytic tumors is associated with decreased expression levels of MCAM. Moreover, NEAPP irradiation might be a potential candidate for therapy to prevent melanoma development through suppression of malignant conversion in benign melanocytic tumors.Environmental Health and Preventive Medicine 07/2014;

Jay-Z, Diddy, LL Cool and Alicia Keys were named in New York Police Department intelligence documentation released Wednesday, revealing that the NYPD monitored various activists, bloggers and politicians in the months leading up to the 2004 Republican National Convention. The musicians were listed in the 600-page report as those expected to attend a rally held by Russell Simmons' Hip-Hop Summit Action Network. The paperwork was released after a federal judge ruled in favor of a motion to declassify the documents, filed by the New York Civil Liberties Union and The New York Times. …
What is Alicia Keyes going to do, play the piano against the Republicans and start a riot? I can see why the NYPD wanted this sh*t sealed. They would find more criminal activity in a Lindsay Lohan or Britney Spears purse.

"It was everything about the school," he explained. "The education, environment, program, just everything. I thought would be the best spot for me. The opportunity at Michigan, to be a Michigan man, means more than playing anywhere else on a full ride."
Allen is a combo guy, but says the Wolverines have recruited him as a punter. He visited Ann Arbor for the first three games this year and that sealed the deal on his decision.
"It played into it a lot," he said of the visits, "actually going down there and visiting and experiencing those games, it was nice, and I really like it down there."
The 6'3, 180-lb Allen saw the Wolverines defeat Eastern Michigan on Saturday and chose to accept the preferred walk-on offer shortly thereafter.
"After the game, I went home and I was thinking about it and decided to call. I talked to Coach Ferrigno, and he seemed happy and glad to have me on board."
Allen reiterated that even if scholarship offers come later this season, his mind is made up and he will not look elsewhere.
Kicking guru Chris Sailer on Allen: Kenny is a great combo prospect (K/P). A good athlete that shows great potential in all areas. Has the skills to be one of the very best. A hard worker, that will only continue to improve. Kenny is big, tall, strong, and athletic. A great combo prospect. Punts for great distance and shows nice consistency. Definite D1A prospect.
