@ ricka057
Your comments may be heart felt. I agree with the tone. The weight of carrying the killing of another on your soul is immense.
I do not know any of the participants in this murder. I would suggest that unlikely as it maybe, those professionals and oath keeps in the department actually help the family now! This goes against the union and department playbook but I still hope.
What actually does this employee and his family suffer? Is he/ this family Christian? Will they say prayers for this child and his parents? Or is the tragedy the potential of some loss of income to the employee?
A hero places the safety of others in front of his own. When it comes to nut cutting time it is clear the choices made. The only thing I see left is the pathetic playing out of the official scam to be followed eventually by the payoff of the family with taxpayer funds.
The police state; incompetent, numbingly stupid, robotic post killing, and always deadly.
May God accept the soul of this child and grant his family comfort in their loss.
Thank you.

@ Sargeking
Stupid is a policy and culture that places union members above people or in this case a child's life.
Body cams? Unknown. Dash cam's? Unknown. Other video to provide truth? Unknown.
What is known: Two law enforcement employees present.
Did they work as a team using cover to isolate the child from a protected position?
If in a covered position what was the over riding need to place two rounds in the child?
Did the employee really identify a weapon?
Why did only one employee shoot?
What was the shooting geometry and how many bystanders were endangered by firing?
Did any rounds exit/ miss the child? Where did they impact/ splash area?
Knowing that the union is already putting out their spin, what public good was served by this action?
Since law enforcement is an actual industry, does this provide the customer value for his/ her tax dollar?
Are people in Ohio being told by lobbyists how heroic law enforcement is?
Does law enforcement need to adopt a zero defect mentality in order to end the routine murder of the innocent and unarmed? Law enforcement enjoys the trappings of the military so why not hold them to the same standard?
Thank you.

@ Dismayed Veteran
Sir/ Ma'am,
Agreed. Now I wonder if you were in a unit that had a mission to win and hold the consent and support of the public and you know that a number of your fellow union members throughout the nation killed children with bb guns/toys or TV remotes; what rules of engagement would you expect?
Now, God forbid but if one of the unit killed a child with a bb gun and turned the community against you – is that mission success?
What you are missing is that this is all acceptable since in 99% of the cases no one is held to account. This is the policy, culture, and if you notice it is growing in frequency.
Can there be little wonder that some people cheer when law enforcement is jailed or killed?
This madness begins with this government monopoly union run industry and their unions and lobbyists.
Thank you.

This is not a racial issue regardless of what the media and the two sides use. This is what a government monopoly union run industry does routinely.
The number of white children murdered, grievously wounded, assaulted – raped/ sodomized, is also the issue. There are 20 incidents if you do a search, of white innocents being gunned down by law enforcement.
These incidents are the direct result of a culture of unaccountability that hides all manner of evil behind the blank and dead eyes of a bureaucrat/ functionary doing what they are told knowing there is little chance of accountability let alone personal responsibility.
Thank you.

@ prov1
Sir/ Ma'am,
I think I understand what you mean by our comments. Perhaps, when you look at the total numbers you might want to revise the sequence of this roulette game used as analogy: as a citizen, these days it is, pure and simple Russian roulette when law enforcement is near.
If I understand your equivalency, a child acting as a child is the same as a law enforcement employee executing the unarmed and innocent!
What a hellish place this country is becoming; Godless, lawless, feasting on perversion, immorality, and death.
I have tried but am unable to utter a pray for the immortal soul of this murdering employee. Perhaps I am becoming as callous as the police state too. Perhaps this is the plan all along.
Thank you.

@ DumbAussie
Sir/ Ma'am,
I understand that Australia is much further along in the deployment of the police state than we Yanks are. But, surely, even a totalitarian Orwellian subject of the Crown understands the insanity of this incident. Don't you?
When/ if all of the video and testimony of this killing comes out it will be interesting to see how far the truth is from the law enforcement/ union statements.
Locally: a man in north FL disarmed a law enforcement employee over night when this employee showed up at the mans' house in response to the man's call for the fire department to come to his aide since his house was on fire. It is unclear why or how, but the man disarmed the employee, shot and killed him before being shoot and killed by another employee. I am sure there is much, much more to this – perhaps we may even find the truth – but I suspect a large and indiscriminate reaction to police state terror is coming at some point here as well as in other parts of the west.
It would appear that your Melbourne police death squads have had less to due with the disarmament of the law abiding populace not that it has brought the promised leftist heaven to your country.
Thank you.

Mr. Brown,
I know not what makes you think the way you do. I hope at some point the Lord allows you the wisdom and the heart to understand that institutional evil is no less evil than that of the individual variety. Institutional evil does have the added sickness of no accountability.
What do you say to the parents of the child in SC answering the front door with a TV remote in his hand and is gunned down by law enforcement?
Based on your perspective/ logic and informed by the mounting number of bodies, the population should assume that any and all law enforcement employees, in their work clothes or not, present a public safety threat to all in the immediate vicinity, and as you indicate, the public should take appropriate defensive measures. This is madness based on a policy of cowardice empowered by a nihilist death cult.
Thank you.

@ Elena2010
What a Godless horrible people we have become to think that children are appropriate targets for execution if they think and act as children.
I am reminded of the execution of Andy Lopez. That child was executed carrying a bb gun – because the law enforcement employee in Santa Rosa CA engaged the child from the rear creating the justification for executing him by forcing the child to turn around. That child was not black. The employee, a super special paramilitary unit member, was never held to account even though he was on record advocating shooting first as a practical measure vice understanding the situation and thinking through it.
A family is destroyed and I suspect once again the taxpayers of Cleveland will be victimized in a civil award case courtesy of a government monopoly union run industry.
Thank you.

Sir/ Ma'am
You are the only commenter here that displayed any semblance of morality or even a basic human trait – concern for a child.
I pray for the soul of Tamir Rice (interesting that the Blaze does not identify the child by name) and his family.
Since the race baiting has already started; this has nothing to do with race, ethnicity, socioeconomic class or any other ruse. This is the police state doing what it does best.
I would hope that people on both sides of this new outrage will wait until such time as all of the pertinent facts are brought out.
Aside from the law enforcement trolls and apologists here I hope people are beginning to understand that based on policy and procedure, regardless of guilt or innocence, law enforcement is a real, imminent, and growing danger to all of the population.
There is nothing more deadly and despicable than a government monopoly union (Cleveland Police Patrolmen's Association) run industry that kills as a matter of course based on policy with no accountability or personal responsibility.
Thank you.

I just read a report that says the anarchist group anonymous has hacked a site that links employee Wilson to KKK participation. I pray to God that this is not true!

Excellent! There was a time when situational awareness, thinking through a given situation, & moral authority based on legitimacy would make none of what is condoned today mildly acceptable.
It would be worth a read to see where the younger generation sits with regard to over criminalization & employing the force continuum in all situations. I suspect that many here believe history, & therefore relevance & importance, begins & ends with their personal experiences. What I believe is being lost on people here is that this society is producing a rising generation that resents & will act, when given power, in their own self interest based on a common experience: personal survival of abortion on demand, a societal debt-load that renders them indentured servants for life, a legal industry and law enforcement industry that makes all forms of human activity criminal & uses it to target them for revenue, and the corollary – all legal system action has life time consequence.
Caught in the monthly ticket/ revenue generation – credit and employment are impacted. Influenced by the cultural rot spewed out by the media – disease and addiction – funnel them into paying the tax consumers salary.
As with all life & human history a culmination point is reached; an equal & predicable reaction will be; swift, arbitrary, serve, & merciless. If you think this through, why expect anything less? After all the next generation is being taught a hard lesson & they learn! Thank you.

@ TallSauce
Sir/ Ma'am,
Please do not point out that law enforcement employees do actually "have to depend upon the consent of the public" in order to survive and receive a pay check.
For any that read law enforcement websites and blog's the paranoia is rising in tandem with the weaponization and loosening of rules governing employee conduct, policy, and out right crime.
For me, it seems very clear that there is an orchestration on both sides of the planned confrontation. Perhaps even the apologists here will step back a second and analyze what exactly is taking place.
Here is a quote that now rings true to me as never before: We've bartered away our right to self-governance, self-defense, privacy, autonomy and that most important right of all—the right to tell the government to "leave me the hell alone." In exchange for the promise of safe streets, safe schools, blight-free neighborhoods, lower taxes, lower crime rates, and readily accessible technology, health care, water, food and power, we've opened the door to militarized police, government surveillance, asset forfeiture, school zero tolerance policies, license plate readers, red light cameras, SWAT team raids, health care mandates, overcriminalization and government corruption. ~ Johnathan W. Whitehead
Thank you.
[7] November 21, 2014 at 11:07am
Excellent point.
I would expand your point; no law enforcement employee should be allowed to hide their identity unless engaged in an on-going undercover operation only.
The mask is in fact a psychological device used to allow for maximum intimidation and freedom from reprisal for criminal acts.
A question for a thoughtful reader: Why does a society accept those we anoint with limited immunity and state sanction to kill hide their identity if their actions are "good", lawful, moral, and a benefit to the community and taxpayer? If we are a society of laws, moral, and just any law enforcement employee serving the public would receive the full support of the community would they not? If not, why not?
There seems to be a fundamental disconnect here that directly impacts the legitimacy of all employees of this government monopoly union run industry.
Thank you.
[14] November 21, 2014 at 10:57am
Sorry there is no officer visible in this video nor in this story. What is visible and are referenced in this story are employees of the town's local law enforcement industry branch exercising their prerogative to act criminally with impunity.
This particular incident reminds me of the thug employee at the soccer game in TX attempting to trip students (female and male) as they rush to congratulate their teams' victory.
When, oh when, will readers/ commenters here begin to understand that these encounters are not, not race, ethnicity, language, or income based confrontations. All of these incidents are in fact the actions of a national on-going criminal enterprise.
Being older, I remember when law enforcement crime was primarily based on theft (60′s and 70′s). Now days law enforcement crime has shifted to widespread criminality in terms of scope and violence. I believe this is a direct reflection of unionization, union promotion of immorality, and the adoption of a nihilist death cult ethos.
As reference, I have been to this town on liberty(many years ago as a young Marine) from the jump school at Ft Benning. As with most towns' feeding off the service member, the law enforcement employees did not and do not have a reputation of treating service members with respect or even within the law. I have no personal knowledge of how the children of this town view the members of this local branch.
Thank you.

@ JRook,
Sir/ Ma'am,
As others pointed out here, President Regan did not close mental hospitals. Not knowing your age I will remind/ inform you that it was a liberal cause & made the career (what a sham that is) of one Geraldo Rivera – did a series of "news reports" on the horrors of the NY state mental hospitals.
Your comments on PTSD although appearing to diminish or insult actually have value. There are substantial & measurable differences between combat veterans from WWII & the current 13 year war veteran. Most striking of those differences is the number of shots and pharmaceuticals, as well as, the toxic environment (airborne deleted uranium particulates) unique to the modern battlefield and the cumulative effect on the Marine/ Soldier/ Sailor/ Airman in it.
One of the great untold tragedies of modern warfare are the number of autistic children born to service members exposed to this environment. I know of no Marine that does not have at least one family in the unit with this heartbreaking challenge. I do not have the statistics but the military family has a much higher incidences of autism.
For the stooges that bow and scrap regardless of how outrageous a government monopoly union run law enforcement industry member may act/ speak the following applies:
They had a solid failsafe solution for the "mentally disturbed" humans 74 years ago in central Europe; concentration/ death camp. This worked for a few years but ended in mass death.
Thank you.
[1] November 20, 2014 at 11:32am
@ FIreInTheGut,
Sir/ Ma'am,
They had a solid failsafe solution for the "mentally disturbed" and "tard" humans 74 years ago in central Europe; the concentration camp/ death camp. This approach worked very well for a number of years until the intellectual and moral rot of such a policy resulted in all the non "mentally disturbed" and non "tard" humans receiving their just due; death, devastation, and eternal damnation since their national policy was anti God as well as anti-human.
This particular video and incident is truly reveling with regard to the nature of and unwavering focus of the government monopoly union run law enforcement industry: Distain, disrespect, disregard for any and all that point out the numbingly stupid nihilism of the enforcement class.
It was refreshing to see a law enforcement employee actually announce to the public that public perception of government is of no consequence. For those that will call me anti whatever; again it matters not what race, gender, ethnicity the victim is – eventually it will be all of us. It will just take awhile to get around to you. Comforting isn't it?
Thank you.

I will attempt to defend Reid:
Senator Reid is the highest form of an evolved spices of anti-freedom, anti-human, unequal protection under the law, anti-Christian creature ever seen in north American in the last half century.
No one can deny that Reid, his family, his backers to include a significant number of his fellow congregants' and pay for play lobbyists have not benefited wildly by his use of parliamentary rules, corruption, intimidation, and official oppression.
The skills: lying, stealing, fomenting criminal activity, and participation in an on-going criminal enterprise spanning the globe may not have been seen since the spectacular reign of Tweed and the nest of criminals in Tammy Hall at the end of the 19th century.
This is no small feat. Imagine an enfeebled septuagenarian with no public speaking skills, no academic prowess, miniscule personal wealth pre-elected office, and demonstrably wrong on ever major issue of public policy since 1969 has been the master of every living person in this country for years!
Harry Reid is "The New Man" and prototype for the remarkably reasonable and chillingly believable real-life 21st century hunger games!
All that remains to be seen is if his surrogate/ alternative puppet Senator McConnell (studying since 1964 in the fine arts perfected by Reid) will be capable of matching Reid's remarkable record!
Thank you.

I could not agree with your comments more.
This is all orchestrated from the left and right.
Everything that is being promoted via the media is setting the stage for a confrontation that will provide the excuse to expand the police state.
Let's remember this is not about employee Wilson's color or that of the deceased. The only thing this is and should be about is the lawfulness of Wilson killing and unarmed man period.
Just another observation if you will allow me:
The FBI and DHS are hyping potential attacks on law enforcement calling this potential domestic terrorism. As a reminder, the accused "cop killer" in PA has been charged as a domestic terrorist – one dead law enforcement employee. However, this is the same FBI/ DHS that says the Ft Hood massacre is workplace violence. Odd isn't it?
Keep your wits. Be prepared. Stay vigilant. Think before acting and above all pray for your life/ family/ country.

If the lawlessness and double standard ended with speeding that would be a huge improvement.
Here in FL, law enforcement shakedown business to get "free stuff" proposition, rape, sodomize women, girls and boys, beat, steal, and deal and take drugs. Speeding is minor.

Sir/ Ma'am,
I agree with your sentiment however this did not begin with the current occupant of the White House.
The structures that were put in place and the legal devices necessary to make any actions "legal" precede him as well.
All should be concerned and on guard and not just from a leftist group of anarchists. It is a matter of court record that the KKK is essentially filled with FBI informants. Why would anyone believe this is not the other half of the crazies stoking the fires to ignite the conflagration?
If someone was enterprising they might report the location of all the viper teams and the current position and status of regional fusion centers – most are on ot.
This is shaping up to be a big event – perhaps the catalyst that many fear.

Leading shipping services group, Clarksons PLC reports strong strong financial performance in the first half of 2014.
Financial Results
Clarksons increased revenues by 25% to £111.7m in the first six months of 2014 (2013: £89.1m) despite the weaker US dollar against sterling, which averaged US$1.68 (2013: US$1.53).
Administrative expenses increased by 17% to £89.3m (2013: £76.1m) predominantly reflecting additional staff costs.
Underlying profit before taxation was £15.8m (2013: £10.8m), which after acquisition costs of £1.7m and £nil exceptional costs (2013: £1.8m after acquisition and exceptional costs), turned into a reported profit of £14.1m (2013: £9.0m). Basic reported earnings per share was 53.1p (2013: 32.7p). Underlying earnings per share, before acquisition costs and the exceptional item, was up 49% to 62.2p (2013: 41.8p).
"Clarksons' strong performance in the first half of 2014 once again underlines the strength of the company's strategy and business model. Clarksons continues to make positive strides despite the
challenges that remain in shipping markets and the weakness in the US dollar," comments Andi Case ,Chief Executive Officer.

Neanderthal cloning chatter highlights scientific illiteracy
BOSTON (Reuters) - After spending the weekend reading blog posts claiming that he was seeking an "extremely adventurous female human" to bear a cloned Neanderthal baby - which was news to him - Harvard geneticist George Church said it may be time for society to give some thought to scientific literacy.
Church became the subject of dozens of posts and tabloid newspaper articles calling him a "mad scientist" after giving an interview to the German magazine Der Spiegel.
In the interview, Church discussed the technical challenges scientists would face if they tried to clone a Neanderthal, though neither he nor the Der Spiegel article, which was presented as a question and answer exchange, said he intended to do so.
"Harvard professor seeks mother for cloned cave baby," read one headline, on the website of London's Daily Mail.
But Church explained on Wednesday that he was simply theorizing.
Still, the readiness of bloggers, journalists and readers to believe he was preparing an attempt to clone a Neanderthal, a species closely related to modern humans that went extinct some 30,000 years ago, led Church to ponder scientific literacy.
"The public should be able to detect cases where things seem implausible," Church said in an interview at his office at Harvard Medical School in Boston. "Everybody's fib detector should have been going off. They should have said, 'What? Who would believe this?' ... This really indicates that we should have scientific literacy."
Despite the spate of articles comparing him to the character in the book and movie "Jurassic Park" who attempts to open a theme park filled with living dinosaurs, Church said he plans to continue speaking publicly about his research, which focuses on using genes to treat and prevent disease.
Given the number of policy debates driven by science - from how to address climate change, to space exploration, to public health concerns - scientists should not back away from talking to the media, Church said.
"We really should get the public of the entire world to be able to detect the difference between a fact and a complete fantasy that has been created by the Internet," he said.
In the Der Spiegel article, which Church said reported his words accurately, and his recent book "Regenesis: How Synthetic Biology Will Reinvent Nature and Ourselves," Church theorized that studying cloned Neanderthals could help scientists better understand how the human mind works. Scientists have already extracted DNA from Neanderthal bones.
But such experiments would pose a host of ethical concerns - including how many Neanderthals would be created and whether they would be treated as mere study subjects or as beings with their own rights, Church said.
"I do want to connect the public to science because there are so many decisions to be made if the way they learn it, if they learn it faster by talking about Neanderthals than they did by getting rote learning in high school, that's great," he said.

Bravo Reviving DEATH BECOMES HER as TV Series
Bravo is set to break out the cultural defibrilator and resuscitate DEATH BECOMES HER, the cult classic film starring Meryl Streep and Goldie Hawn, Variety reported this weekend.
The network has put into motion a plan to turn the film into a one-hour scripted drama. Robert Zemeckis, the man behind the 1992 film, has agreed to serve as executive produer along with Jack Rapke and Jackie Levine. No writer, director, or cast is currently attached to the project.
DEATH BECOMES HER follows two women who vie against each other in their desperate search for immortality.
Recently, Bravo announced they had ordered a script for an additional pilot, based upon the 2009 flick THE JONESES, starring Demi Moore and David Duchovny. It follows a seemingly perfect family of four that has just moved to an upscale suburb to start a new life, but have a secret they must keep from friends and neighbors... they aren't a real family at all.
"These pilots give us an opportunity to explore worlds and characters that are distinct from our unscripted programming," Andrew Wang, vice president of scripted development and production at Bravo, said. "Yet, both projects feature the memorable storylines and strong, unique characters that our Bravo audience craves."
Bravo is a program service of NBCUniversal Cable Entertainment, a division of NBCUniversal, one of the world's leading media and entertainment companies in the development, production, and marketing of entertainment, news, and information to a global audience. Bravo has been an NBCUniversal cable network since December 2002 and was the first television service dedicated to film and the performing arts when it launched in December 1980.

2010 Volkswagen Carravelle and California campervan
19 August 2009 15:06:04
Both the Volkswagen Carravelle people carrier and California campervan feature a redesigned front following the company's latest trends as well as new taillights, chrome side trims, and more aerodynamic exterior mirrors.
There are 4 new TDI engines available for the 2010 Volkswagen Carravelle and California, all having a 2.0-litre capacity with power outputs of 84 PS, 102 PS, 140 PS and 180 PS. These engines will come linked to a new seven-speed DSG automatic transmission and will be meeting the latest Euro 5 emission standards.
As far as new features the 2010 Volkswagen Carravelle and California come equipped with a new generation ESP with hill-start, a Side Assist lane change system and a Tyre Monitor Display.
Volkswagen press release :
First details of the new Volkswagen Caravelle people carrier and California campervan are released today ahead of their world debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show next month.
No other manufacturer can compete with Volkswagen's rich heritage of iconic people carriers and campervans, and the enhancements to the latest generation of these models offer the latesttechnology, comfort and safety features, with lower emissions and improved fuel economy by approximately ten per cent across the range.
The new models stand out with changes to the external design. These include new rear light clusters, chrome side trims, more aerodynamic door mirrors and an entirely new front using the latest Volkswagen passenger car design for the grille and headlights seen most recently in the new Polo and Golf.
Other new features carried over from Volkswagen's latest passenger cars include comfort and safety items such as three-spoke steering wheels, stylish new instruments, a recommended gear shift display, a USB 'Media-in' interface to connect external devices, and the latest audio and integrated, touchscreen, hard-drive navigation systems.
A new generation ESP (Electronic Stabilisation Programme) with hill-start assist and an emergency brake light function are also introduced across the range, while other new features now available include Volkswagen's Side Assist lane change system, first seen in the Touareg, which warns the driver of anything in the vehicle's blind spot, and a new TMD (Tyre Monitor Display) to alert the driver to any decrease in tyre pressures.
Refinement is also improved thanks to a new range of four quieter, more economical 2.0-litre four-cylinder common rail TDI engines. These offer power outputs of 84 PS, 102 PS, 140 PS and 180 PS, and all meet the latest Euro V emissions standard. The new models also benefit from the introduction of Volkswagen's seven-speed DSG automatic transmission, which will also be available later in 2010 with the 4MOTION all-wheel drive system with fourth generation Haldex coupling for the first time (on selected models).
Prices and specifications for the new Caravelle and California will be released closer to launch. The new models will arrive in selected Volkswagen Van Centres from January 2010. All Volkswagen Van Centre locations are available at www.volkswagen-vans.co.uk.

- Lola Feldman : 11 March 2012 22:16:11We have been looking for a 2002 Eurovan pop top for awhile but they all have too many miles. I have seen the VW California ads but am frustrated that they do not sell them in the USA! I think it would be very popular here. Everyone loves the whole vibe!!

The Customer Is Always Right: Don't Blame The American People For Romney's Loss
Barack Obama has been one of the single worst Presidents in American history. He's decimated the economy, bungled foreign policy, driven the deficit into the stratosphere, poisoned the well with Republicans in Congress, and he has shown himself to be a petty, mean-spirited, corrupt racist who's habitually self-absorbed and incompetent.
Now, some people might agree with that description and think, "How could the American people be so stupid that they would vote for a man like that?" What you really should be thinking is, "If Obama is really that bad, how bad do we have to be to lose to someone like that?"
Instead of pointing the finger elsewhere, that puts the responsibility where it belongs — on the conservative movement and the Republican Party. We just lost an election to the worst, least competent man ever to sit in the Oval Office. That means it's time for us to work harder, smarter, and start upping our game.

I am very impressed! After much effort, wasted valuable time, and hundreds of dollars spent trying PPC (Pay per click) ads, I was frustrated! While looking for other means of driving traffic to my site, I came across "Revisitors"... I have to say I was sceptical at first. Then I read the reviews... (All 500 of them) The first one was from Steve, who explained how they kept the IP address's as proof that these were not made up reviews. THen, I googled some of these people, and directly asked them if they had sent in these "reviews"... they all replied "YES" as well, everyone of them recommended I try the campaign for myself! Traffic has never been better, and as for my novel that is exclusively available at my website www.justincossette.com_ "Roman, the secret son" has for the last two weeks in a row, been the best selling novel on the internet! As I stated in the beginning of this review... "I am very impressed!" Thank-you!"

Product description
"Critics have gushed over Gurney's phantasmagorical creation, likening him to such venerated literary fantasists as Jules Verne, Wells, and J. R. R. Tolkien." -- "People""Magazine "James Gurney's illustrated Dinotopia series has been an imaginative touchstone for a generation of readers of all ages. This new definitive edition of "Dinotopia: First Flight "brings together an extensive collection of James Gurney's stories, artwork, and story notes from the ancient origins of the land where humans and dinosaurs coexist. That peaceful world was forged on the flames of conflict in a dramatic Age of Heroes. "First Flight "tells a timeless tale of partnership and courage, where unlikely heroes cooperate to overcome the greatest challenge yet to face Dinotopia. This lavishly produced volume begins with an unabridged republication of James Gurney's influential 1999 story about the adventures of Gideon Altaire. Gideon escapes from his post as a drone pilot, befriends a small band of animal characters, and becomes the first human to fly on the back of a giant pterosaur known as a skybax. Together they challenge a bold attempt by the rogue leaders of Poseidos to overturn the tenuous balance between humans and dinosaurs. The second half of the book includes a bonus of over 45 new images, including never-before-published storyboards, concept sketches, and production paintings, plus new characters, stories, and backstory notes from James Gurney's creative archives. The supplement begins with a cinematic treatment about a character named Blake Terrapin, who leads the resistance on the ground while Gideon takes to the air.  Together, the elements of this richly imagined volume combine to conjure a richly textured world, and will serve as an exciting companion volume to Gurney's other Dinotopia books.

MICHAELA E. HOWELLS, then a student at University of Colorado, Boulder, Colorado, was awarded funding in April 2011 to aid research on 'The Impact of Psychosocial Stress on Gestation Length and Pregnancy Outcomes in American Samoa,' supervised by Dr. Darna Dufour. The objective of this research is to determine the relationship between chronic maternal psychosocial stress on spontaneous abortion, gestation length, and neonate body size. In order to achieve this goal, the grantee conducted a biocultural, longitudinal, prospective study of pregnancy outcomes in 184 women experiencing significant shifts in cultural identity in American Samoa. Two interrelated indicators of psychosocial stress -- Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) antibody concentration and status incongruence -- were paired with monthly maternal interviews to assess the effects of stress on pregnancy outcomes. EBV antibody concentrations represent a broad, non-specific response to psychosocial stressors. Status incongruence is related to a woman's status within the community and arises when an individual is unable to resolve traditional and nontraditional markers of status. This study follows from their first prenatal care appointment through to their pregnancies natural conclusion and will help clarify the effects of psychosocial stress on pregnancy outcomes. Pregnancy outcomes will be assessed in terms of neonate size for gestation. Possible outcomes include spontaneous abortions, preterm births (? 36 weeks) and full-term births. This study aims to add to our knowledge of the factors associated with pregnancy loss, premature delivery, and infants born small-for-gestational-age in a non-western population of women.
MARLIJN NOBACK, then a student at Eberhard Karls University, Tubingen, Germany, was awarded a grant in April 2011 to aid research on 'Climate- and Diet-Related Variation in Human Functional Cranial Components,' supervised by Dr. Katerina Harvati. This study seeks to elucidate the physiological basis of craniofacial variation and the selective forces driving modern human cranial geographic diversity. Funding enabled the CT scanning of 45 individual crania from three different collections based in Paris, London, and Tübingen. These scans form part of a larger database of over 330 CT scans, representing populations from different climatic and dietary regimes. With the use of the software package AVIZO and a high performance laptop, 3D models of functional facial components are developed from the CT scans. Analyses are currently undertaken and include studies of variation and co-variation of the cranial components and their relation to diet and climate. This project will enhance understanding of the biological processes underlying the evolution of modern human anatomy, adaptation and geographic diversity.
DR. CLAUDIA R. VALEGGIA, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, received funding in October 2011 to aid research on 'Life History Transitions among the Toba of Argentina.' The study is part of a five-year, longitudinal project that evaluates the interaction among biocultural variables underlying key life transitions in humans. The project takes place in an indigenous population in northern Argentina. Biological and ethnographic data are collected to evaluate the somatic, developmental, cultural, and hormonal correlates of three life history transitions: weaning, puberty, and menopause. This particular study focused on the hormonal changes associated with the peri-menopausal transition and on the association between infant growth trajectories and infectious disease. Preliminary results show differences between levels of ovarian hormones, FSHB, and adiponectin between pre- and post-menopausal women. Menopausal Toba women had higher levels of FSHB and adiponectin than menopausal non-indigenous women. Toba infants with reports of sickness had slower growth trajectories than infants with no reports of sickness. Fever, GI infections, bronchitis, and flu during first nine months were negatively correlated with length velocity. Additionally, fever, cold, and flu during the first three months were negatively correlated with weight velocity. Results from this research will contribute directly to issues of evolutionary anthropology, the biodemography of aging, and clinical medicine, as they relate specifically to patterns of child growth and women's aging.
ELIZABETH T. ABRAMS, while a student at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, Michigan, was awarded a grant in September 2001 to aid research on variability in birth outcomes following malaria during pregnancy, under the supervision of Dr. A. Roberto Frisancho. Malaria infections during pregnancy are associated with a number of poor birth outcomes, including intrauterine growth retardation, preterm delivery, and fetal death. Previous researchers had identified malaria-induced immune responses and birth outcomes, but the immune response to malaria could not fully account for the variation in birth outcomes. Abrams focused on a second potential determinant of poor birth outcomes: maternal and fetal iron status. She examined umbilical-cord hemoglobin levels in 33 malaria-infected and 57 uninfected women delivering in Blantyre, Malawi, in relation to maternal hemoglobin levels, malaria status, neonatal inflammation, and birth outcome. Although, as expected, maternal hemoglobin levels were significantly decreased by malaria infection during pregnancy, there was no reduction in cord levels, nor was there any significant relationship between the two. Nevertheless, cord ferritin levels were elevated in the neonates of malaria-infected mothers in relation to increased parasitemia, suggesting fetal immune activation to maternal malaria. Increased cord ferritin was associated with significantly decreased birth weight and gestational length, although maternal and cord hemoglobin levels and malaria status had no effect on birth outcome. The markers of fetal hypoxia that were examined, including erythropoietin, cortisol, and corticotrophin-releasing hormone, were not altered in malaria-infected versus uninfected women. In sum, in this population, cord hemoglobin levels were buffered from the effects of maternal malaria. However, elevated cord ferritin levels suggested fetal immune activation to malaria, which appeared to influence birth outcomes.

DAN EISENBERG, then a student at Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois, received a grant in May 2010 to research on 'Ecological Predictors of Telomere Lengths: a Longitudinal and Cross-Population Analysis of Human Biological Diversity,' supervised by Dr. Christopher Kuzawa . Telomeres are DNA sequences at chromosome ends that shorten with age and are required for proper cell division. Telomere shortening is associated with diminished cell proliferation capacity, which is believed to be a cause of senescence. Given the importance of cell proliferation to blood telomere length (BTL), it has been hypothesized that BTL reflects previous immune system activation and indicates current immune function. Thus BTL could provide a new biomarker of life history allocations and of developmental exposures to infection. Contrary to the shortening of BTL that occurs with age, previous studies have shown that children of older fathers have longer telomeres. By analyzing BTL data from the Philippines, Eisenberg and colleagues showed for the first time that this happens across at least two generations: older fathers not only have offspring with longer telomeres, but their sons also have offspring with longer telomeres. Analyses of how early life infection and growth predicts later BTL are ongoing.

DR. ETTY INDRIATI, Gadjah Mada University, Jakarta, Indonesia, and DR. WILLIAM LEONARD, Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois, were awarded an International Collaborative Research Grant to aid collaborative research on 'Energetic Nutritional and Dental Health of Foragers Orang Rimba in the Sumatran Forest, Indonesia.' This research examined dietary consumption, energy expenditure, body size, and other health measures in 85 men and 115 women agriculturists from Ngilo-Ilo, East Java. The adults of this population are short and light (159.9 cm, 51.8kg for men; 147.7cm, 45.8kg for women), with little evidence of a secular trend when compared to data collected on other rural Javanese populations in the 1960-70s. In contrast, urban Javanese today are significantly taller and heavier than their rural counterparts( 164.24 cm, 62 kg in males; 155.02cm, 52 kg in females; Indriati, 2002).BMIs are low in the Ngilo-Ilo population (20.3 kglm2 for men; 20.5 kglm2 for women).Despite high levels of growth stunting and low BMIs, body fatness in this population falls within normal ranges. These findings suggest that the standard WHO BMI cut-offs for obesity are not appropriate for small-bodied populations of Indonesia. Despite evidence of chronic energy stress, measured RMRs did not significantly differ from those predicted using WHO norms, suggesting no increased metabolic efficiency. In contrast, it appears that chronic health problems are on the rise in this population as28%ofthe sample had elevated cholesterol, and one third was hypertensive.
'Tenth Meeting of the Latin American Association of Biological Anthropology'
October 20-23, 2008, Universidad Nacional de la Plata, Buenos Aires, Argentina
Organizers: Evelia E. Oyhenart (U. Nacional de La Plata) and Hector M. Pucciarelli (Museo de la Plata, Buenos Aires)
More that 350 students and professionals from all over Latin America attended the Tenth Meeting of the Latin American Association of Biological Anthropology. The conference's goal was to bring distinguished Latin American scholars from the field of biological anthropology field, to a collegial environment where students and professional could meet and establish connections to promote future collaborative research. Topics of discussion included 'Human Growth in Nutritional, Epidemiological, and Demographical Transition' and 'New Research on the Peopling of the Americas.' Also a panel of experts from various fields discussed the different ways genetic data were being merged with physical anthropology, archaeology, linguistics, and other disciplines to help build a clearer picture of the human past.
DR. CLAUDIA R. VALEGGIA, CONICET, Formosa, Argentina, was awarding a grant in May 2003 to aid research on 'Fertility Patterns and Energy Availability of Foraging Wichi in the Argentine Chaco.' This study was part of the Chaco Area Reproductive Ecology Program, a long-term project that seeks to understand the interactions between environment, behavior, and reproductive biology of foraging groups in the Argentine Chaco. The aim of the study was to collect baseline data on how demographic and fertility patterns of Wichí people (n = 800) relate to changes in seasonal variation in energy availability and foraging practices. Preliminary results indicate a high fertility rate (8.6 births per woman), a relatively short inter-birth interval (average: 2.3 months 3.6) and a high infant mortality rate (46%). A birth seasonality effect was evident, with conceptions taking place between April and July. The Wichí of these communities were in good nutritional status, only 2% of adults (all women) were considered undernourished. Furthermore, there was a considerable percentage of overweight and obesity. As many as 55% of men and 54% of women were overweight (Body Mass Index > 25), whereas 17% of both men and women were obese (BMI >30). There were no apparent differences in energy availability across the annual cycle. However, there was considerable seasonal variation in the frequency and type of subsistence activities and in diet composition. A marked sexual division of activities was also evident and that seems to explain the differences in energy availability between women and men. Further analyses will explore the interaction between seasonality, division of labor, and fertility.
SHAHNA L. ARPS, then a student at Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio, was awarded a grant in October 2004 to aid research on 'Maternal Mortality and Morbidity among the Miskito of Eastern Honduras,' supervised by Dr. Douglas E. Crews. Fieldwork was conducted in Honduras (November 2004 - November 2005) to explore maternal health issues in Miskito communities along the Ibans lagoon in the department of Gracias a Dios. Focus groups, structured interviews, and health assessments provided data regarding the cultural, biological, behavioral, and socioeconomic factors that influence maternal morbidity and mortality. To investigate health among living women, reproductive histories and information on current health, household composition, and socioeconomic status were collected during initial interviews with 200 women. Follow- up interviews were conducted to investigate dietary intake, workload/activity, social support, decision-making (autonomy), episodes of illness, and health-seeking behavior. Verbal autopsies were also collected from family members to analyze causes and circumstances of maternal deaths in the region. Women reported 55 maternal deaths. Hemorrhage, usually due to prolonged labor or retained placenta, was the leading cause of death. Poverty, women's lack of autonomy, and inadequate access to health care interact in complex ways to produce compromised health and maternal mortality in Miskito communities. This research demonstrates the need for new maternal health initiatives in the region. It also contributes to an understanding of human adaptability and limits to adaptability in high-risk environments.
MICHELLE J. ESCASA, then a student at University of Nevada, Las Vegas, Nevada, received a grant in April 2011 to aid research on 'Female Sociosexuality, Mate Preferences, and Sex Steroid Hormones of Lactating Women in Manila,' supervised by Dr. Peter B. Gray. This project investigates the influence of lactation on female sociosexuality and mate preferences in urban Manila, a population with long-term breastfeeding, low contraceptive use, and quick return to cycling. From an evolutionary perspective, female ancestors were likely spending more time pregnant and lactating rather than ovulating. Moreover, a majority of conceptions in natural fertility societies occurred in lactating, ovulating women. These considerations suggest that lactating women face important life history allocation trade-offs between mating and parenting effort that may be manifested in their sociosexual behavior and mate preferences. Breastfeeding (n=155) and control (n=105) women were recruited to provide a saliva sample (for testosterone and estradiol analyses) and complete a face and voice preference task to determine preferences for masculinity. All participants also completed a questionnaire that assessed sexual functioning, sociosexuality, and relationship satisfaction, along with demographic variables. Breastfeeding women report differences in commitment to their relationship, jealousy levels, sexual functioning, and preferences for high-pitched voices. Further analyses incorporate the age of the infant and the cycling status of participants. Cultural and life history factors will be discussed and will serve as a framework for the findings.
