Genomic Analysis News
Male-biased autosomal effect of 16p13.11 copy number variation in neurodevelopmental disorders.
Copy number variants (CNVs) at chromosome 16p13.11 have been associated with a range of neurodevelopmental disorders including autism, ADHD, intellectual disability and schizophrenia. Significant sex differences in prevalence, course and severity have been described for a number of these conditions but the biological and environmental factors underlying such sex-specific features remain unclear.
We tested the burden and the possible sex-biased effect of CNVs at 16p13.11 in a sample of 10,397 individuals with a range of neurodevelopmental conditions, clinically referred for array comparative genomic hybridisation (aCGH); cases were compared with 11,277 controls. In order to identify candidate phenotype-associated genes, we performed an interval-based analysis and investigated the presence of ohnologs at 16p13.11; finally, we searched the DECIPHER database for previously identified 16p13.11 copy number variants. In the clinical referral series, we identified 46 cases with CNVs of variable size at 16p13.11, including 28 duplications and 18 deletions. Patients were referred for various phenotypes, including developmental delay, autism, speech delay, learning difficulties, behavioural problems, epilepsy, microcephaly and physical dysmorphisms. CNVs at 16p13.11 were also present in 17 controls.

Classic motorcycles including a BSA Bantam D1 and Ariel Red Hunter dramatically exceeded their sales estimates at an auction held near Lincoln...
The machines were part of a collection amassed by lecturer and mechanic John Linegar and were sold by Perkins George Mawer & Co at Manor Park Farm, Rand, on September 29.
Lot 425 was a restored 1939 350cc Ariel Red Hunter with an estimate of £2500 to £3500. It made £6100. The 1950 125cc BSA Bantam D1, which was complete but in need of restoration, had been pegged at £500 to £800. It fetched £1700.
A 1924 350cc BSA beat its upper estimate by £1400 to make £5400 and a 1923 269cc Harper Runabout petrol motorised tricycle with a target of £1000 to £1500 sold for £3600. Another BSA, this time a 1968 Bantam D14/4, estimated at £300 to £500 made £540. It wasn't just motorcycles that succeeded either. A 1966 98cc Lambretta Cento moped estimated at £500 to £800 sold for £1400.
The only real two-wheeled disappointment of the sale was a 1921 250cc Sun Vitesse, estimated at £2500 to £3500, which managed just £2200.
The sale's four-wheeled heavy hitters were a 1936 Rolls-Royce Sedanca De Ville which sold for £19,500 despite a top estimate of £12,000, and a 1935 Alvis Silver Eagle fixed head coupe which made £16,500 – £4500 above its estimate.
Mr Linegar died leaving a vast collection of vehicles and spares, mostly in barn find condition, at his home at Cabourne, near Grimsby. Among the more unusual bits and pieces sold as part of his collection were several aero engines, a pair of stone troughs, an Aston Martin DB2 engine and gearbox, nine wheels from artillery pieces and more than 10 boxes full of motorcycle magnetos.

High 'TECH' Specifications
Students today are tech driven and savvy. Familiarity with the latest smartphones and tablets is only the start. Their lives revolve around social networking. The information they need streams continually through digital devices. They are uber-connected and accept no compromise to their ability to talk, text, share data, videos and pictures, and to learn. Faculty and staff are rapidly evolving in the same fashion. A strong and reliable cellular signal, available in every room of every building is a must on college campuses.
It's a Basic Problem...
Given the design and architecture of school buildings and, in many instances, the sheer size of the campus, this demand for constant connectivity may be hard to satisfy. Concrete and steel materials used in the construction of commercial buildings diminish and deaden cell signals regardless of the devices in use, or their proximity to outside towers.
...With a Straightforward Solution
At Powerful Signal Business Solutions we provide distributed antenna systems (DAS) that ensure a strong, vibrant cellular signal is available throughout campus buildings. In lecture halls, theaters, and auditoriums, offices, dorms, a properly conceived and implemented system will banish weak and/or spotty data and voice service forever. We work closely with you to understand the full scope of your problem then design an enterprise system that is modular and scalable to the specifics of the issues you are experiencing. We utilize non-proprietary FCC-certified components to deliver an optimum solution that is cost effective and fully functional in the timeline you need.
We've Always Received Straight A's
Drawing on our extensive knowledge and experience Powerful Signal Business Solutions has provided customized and workable distributed antenna system to many satisfied educational institutions across the country, improving the educational and social experience as well as on-campus safety for their students, faculty, visitors and staff. No matter who you are, a university, college, high school, or grade school, we're confident we'll deliver the right system specific to your requirements on budget and on time.
Clear, Strong data and voice, wherever, whenever. That's Powerful Signal Business Solutions.
Projects - University & College Building Systems
Powerful Signal Business Solutions has designed cellular booster solutions for many universities, colleges, high schools, and other education facilities. Below is a partial list of projects Powerful Signal Business Solutions has completed for this type of environment. Powerful Signal respects the privacy of our customers and does not publish their names.
Community College - 5 Buildings - 93,847 sf
A community college had problems in 5 of their campus buildings. Powerful Signal designed 5 separate systems to handle the job. Each system covered a single floor with a total of 93,847 square feet for all buildings combined. Gym-22,425 sf, Other 4 buildings: 16,900 sf, 24,336 sf, 15,252 sf, and 14,934 sf.

We only live once and every day spent living your principles is a day at liberty. It is clear that history is on our side.Julian Paul Assange
The case for trade is not just monetary, but moral. Economic freedom creates habits of liberty. And habits of liberty create expectations of democracy.George Walker Bush

The advance of liberty is the path to both a safer and better world.George Walker Bush
I gave my smile its liberty, with no curfew nor bounds.Vanna Bonta
A jealous lover of human liberty, deeming it the absolute condition of all that we admire and respect in humanity, I reverse the phrase of Voltaire, and say that, if God really existed, it would be necessary to abolish him.Mikhail Alexandrovich Bakunin
What are the American ideals? They are the development of the individual for his own and the common good; the development of the individual through liberty, and the attainment of the common good through democracy and social justice.Louis Dembitz Brandeis
All religions united with government are more or less inimical to liberty. All, separated from government, are compatible with liberty.Henry Clay
Give me the liberty to know, to utter, and to argue freely according to conscience, above all liberties.Milton, John
Nothing is so wearing as the possession or abuse of liberty.Emil Cioran
The dearest ambition of a slave is not liberty but to have a slave of his own.Sir Richard Francis Burton
The prosperity, and social vitality and technological progress of a people are directly determined by the extent of their liberty. Freedom honors and unleashes human creativity and creativity determines the strength and wealth of nations. Liberty is both the plan of Heaven for humanity, and the best hope for progress here on Earth.George Walker Bush
For decades, the circle of liberty and security and development has been expanding in our world. This progress has brought unity to Europe, self-government to Latin America and Asia, and new hope to Africa. Now we have the historic chance to widen the circle even further, to fight radicalism and terror with justice and dignity, to achieve a true peace, founded on human freedom.George Walker Bush
Be sure that Christ is not behind you, but before, calling and drawing you on. This is the liberty, the beautiful liberty of Christ. Claim your glorious privilege in the name of a disciple; be no more a servant, when Christ will own you as a friend.Horace Bushnell
We have already found a high degree of personal liberty, and we are now struggling to enhance equality of opportunity. Our commitment to human rights must be absolute, our laws fair, our natural beauty preserved; the powerful must not persecute the weak, and human dignity must be enhanced.James Earl Carter, Jr.
Outside of that single fatality of death, everything, joy or happiness, is liberty.Albert Camus
When it comes to the desire for liberty and justice, there is no clash of civilizations. People everywhere are capable of freedom, and worthy of freedom.George Walker Bush
The survival of liberty in our land increasingly depends on the success of liberty in other lands. The best hope for peace in our world is the expansion of freedom in all the world.George Walker Bush
By liberty I mean the assurance that every man shall be protected in doing what he believes his duty against the influence of authority and majorities, custom and opinion.Lord Acton
Individual liberty is the whole purpose of political life, and I thought it was threatened then [in 1964 becoming politically engaged at age 15] and I think it's threatened now.John Robert Bolton
The eyes of the world are upon you. The hopes and prayers of liberty-loving people everywhere march with you.General Dwight D Eisenhower
Everything is what it is: liberty is liberty, not equality or fairness or justice or culture, or human happiness or a quiet conscience.Sir Isaiah Berlin

Proceedings magazine is a communication tool for the Coast Guard's Marine Safety & Security Council. Each quarterly magazine focuses on a specific theme of interest to the marine industry.
Issue link: http://uscgproceedings.epubxp.com/i/381781
38 Proceedings Fall 2014 www.uscg.mil/proceedings its tows or barge draft. Reduced tow size and draft come at the cost of a reduced cargo load, however, and that translates to higher costs for producers, shippers, and consumers. In a 40-mile portion of the Mississippi River around Thebes, Illinois, risks of a low river stage are exacerbated by a rocky bottom, covered by stony pinnacles and boulders. If a tow boat or barge were to strike the bottom or a rock, the dam- age could be signifcant. Due to the drought, the river stage around Thebes was predicted to be much lower than normal during the winter of 2012, so what normally passed under- neath the hull of a river barge might pass through the hull. Safeguarding Commerce To contend with this situation, the U.S. Coast Guard partnered with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and industry to clear the channel near Thebes of pinnacles and boulders, regulate traffc, and ensure safe navigation. To help mariners safely navigate, the Coast Guard deployed four river buoy tenders, frequently moving river buoys to correspond with the extent of safe water. Those buoy tenders also supplemented the existing buoys with 125 additional ones to provide marking system redun- dancy. The combined efforts of all participants prevented a complete shutdown of river traffc near Thebes during the low water event. Such a shutdown would have affected an estimated $7 billion worth of cargo, 20,000 jobs, and $130 million in wages. 1 Instead, participants averted the worst case, and more than $5.5 billion in cargo made it through. 2 These efforts were an important part of the third strategic priority in the Coast Guard's Western Hemisphere Strategy: safeguarding commerce. The strategy cites three means to protect commerce: • protecting lives; • promoting a safe, secure, and resilient marine transpor- tation system; • preserving the marine environment. The Aging ATON Fleet The Coast Guard inland aids to navigation (ATON) feet plays an important yet unheralded role within the strategy by carrying out operations that support the marine trans- portation system and protect the environment. The inland ATON feet consists primarily of 35 cutters in three classes: • construction tenders (WLIC), • inland buoy tenders (WLI), • river buoy tenders (WLR). WLICs/WLIs/WLRs are responsible for the entire western rivers system, the Columbia River, the St. Marys River, the Inside Passage in Alaska, the Inter- coastal Waterway, and the majority of the fxed ATON structures along the entire southern border of the U.S. coast. The Coast Guard Offce of Visual Navigation estimates that 68.3 percent of the Coast Guard's 49,102 aids to navigation fall under the responsibility of a WLIC, WLI, or WLR cutter. This enormous area of responsibility also looms large in its signifcance for the national economy. For exam- ple, 565 million tons of goods were shipped on internal waterways in 2012. 3 Moreover, the Maritime Admin- istration of the U.S. Department of Transportation Crews work to remove the rocky obstructions during the low water operations near Thebes, Ill., in 2012.

So THAT's why silver is Ag on the periodic table!
So what's the deal with sodium?
RE: katz
Panty-flashing dragon?
I must say I deeply approve of this whole dragon conversation.
The reason fake geek girls get so upset about being asked questions about their supposed fandom is because they're FGGs and can't answer them, thus outing themselves as FGGs.
You can ask me a question about anything I really like and if I can't answer it, I'll genuinely admit I don't know, although odds are I can answer. For some reason FGGs can't take that crushing pressure?
Ah, but if you can't answer, you out yourself as a Fake Victor H. You're just pretending to be Victor, you're actually a Michael or a Steve or a Pod Person From Dimension Deltha-Minor.
A real Victor H. would know everything, and admitting you don't know proves you aren't real, so you don't deserve neither curtesy nor space nor consideration, so suck my non-existent hypothetical, metaphorical penis, you fake Victor you.
Besides, you're only pretending to be a Victor because it's a cool name, aren't you, Steve?
It's not a matter of knowledge and the lack thereof, it's a matter of gatekeeping and allowed identities.
But you'd know that, if you were an actual person, Steve, and not just some pretending-to-be-Vic.
So, nobody is allowed to be a geek if they don't pass the Victor Test of All Things Geeky. Because even if he isn't talking out of his sexist arse (unlikely), having different areas of interest or levels of knowledge or experience just isn't A Thing in the geek world. 'Cos No True Geek was ever new to any area ever.
Or … is it just women who have to pass that test?
Hey Victor, so what's the damage stat on the male ghouls in Grout mansion? They keep killing me and it's getting old.
Simpler one, what happens if you open the box?
P&P one — *cackles* Salubri clan weakness?
Ok, that one was hard, how about the tzimisce? Still too hard? Malkavian?
Simpler one, what happens if you open the box?
Depends. Is the cat Greebo and are you an elf?
I'm not Victor, but I take the P&P questions:
Salubri: first it's a bloodline not clan (because I think the Tremere clan founder committed diablerie against their founder)… depends. In general they may only feed on willing prey, but if I remember correctly antitribu ones only on unwilling.
Tzimisce need to rest in (or at least with) the soil of their home. (Drakula was a tzimisce)
Malkavians are mad (as they begin game with already having some kind of mental illness).
I might be wrong I didn't play oWoD since 2000. ^^; (and our GM sometimes used less than trustworthy sources)
Quick, Victor H, name three high-ranking achievements of Christopher Pell!
What? You can't? Boo! Fake Manboobz commenter! You're only here to bathe in the attention of all the hairy, fat and ugly feminist lesbians who can't get a man! And then you cruelly friendzone them! J'accuse!
On topic, yeah, nothing to add. This "fake geek girl" assholery is annoying as fuck. Why don't these reactionary whiners realize that the "notches to bedposts" mentality and virgin-shaming are what men torment each other with, not something women encourage by the sheer power of their presence?
Because they're dipshits, that's why. They probably feel that women start wars, too, since men feel a pressure to impress "the females" with their super manly conquest skills. Guys wouldn't even play Call of Duty if it wasn't for their internalized misandry of needing to show women how awesome they are at killing things. Because a man killing things is what turns women on. Thats why women are flocking to CoD tournaments: to find the best genetic material.
I knew there was a reason I only hang out with guys with healthy egos. They lack the macho mode, and are subsequently much more fun to be around.
Malitia — damn, that was perfect! Idk on Salubri antitribu but that sounds logical considering. And yeah, Tremere diablerized Saulot.
Kitteh — yes, and he's bloody furious (well, not really, but the resulting death and destruction part is the same)
I played a lot of tabletop RPGs* in the 90s. Before growing up, college, the trading card craze and me getting fed up with assholes** got in the way. So sadly I'm mostly just on the theoretical side of the hobby nowadays. :)
* Mostly the most successful local one (M.A.G.U.S.) and oWoD (Vampire and Changeling)
** My only opportunity to play was the local library's RPG club and there were some people, who would "arrange" my character's early demise (occasionally worse)… who knew inns were that dangerous (and city guards so ineffective, professional soldiers so undisciplined etc. I'm trying to say that most GMs encouraged this with the total lack of consequences or sometimes worse). Yeah. It was a miracle I lasted that long (6 years or so).
… Sorry for the rant. ^^; But at least on topic as it shows that sexism in the geek culture isn't new. :/
Argh seriously? We had one girl, a tremere, who summoned(?) a damned skidoo in a sewer. Despite leaving one of the guys in torpor and another half there, all she got was endlessly mocked (seriously, who does that?)
Damn though, it has been nearly that long since I played, college and no time and such. Too bad, I enjoyed running a Malk, it, uh, comes naturally :) (well, the guys used to say I should try Toreador cuz art, but I refuse to deal with celerity)
Vampire and a touch of Amenti, mostly just to hand the guy playing Lucita his ass though, he'd let her power go to his head.
In Vampire I got to play the Toreador because the storyteller wanted one (we could never figure out why and never finished that campaign) but nobody wanted to play that clan (at least one guy called it gay, I just didn't like the clan disciplines)… and when the ultimatum came (Somebody plays it or I won't be the game master anymore) I was the one who said yes. (OK. I said. "only if next time I can bring my independent Kiasyd* character." … but that somehow got forgotten later.)
That character survived so long (whatever the GM's reason was it was important enough to keep her "alive" so he retaliated against would be character murderers and didn't make us face any impossible challenges** either) I got to in-character joke about "Well, this might be a novel and me the protagonist so I can't die till the end!"
* I like rare bloodlines. and also Obtenebration but Lasombra are way too Sabbat affiliated… and also I have no problem with vampires sparkling. :]
** He was a killer GM so we all suspected some deep dark secret.
On TRPGs, what is the judgment on free-form RPGs (without rulebooks and characters are described verbally, no stats). Geeky or not?
I heard that muttering too but I think those are just the "geekier-than-thou"s who also talk against LARP; in video gaming circles against casual gaming; in anime/manga circles against not boobz-blood-or-angst… umm… non mature works; in comicbook circles against manga; etc.. Or in short against anybody who they think isn't hardcore enough. (They are the banes of every geek community ever. :/)
@Victor H
D'aww, it's a troll. And he thinks he has a new argument! How cute!
It's not a matter of knowledge and the lack thereof, it's a matter of gatekeeping and allowed identities.
yup. It's also hostile to people just trying to get into fandoms/ geek stuff, on top of other shit. Nobody starts out knowing everything.
@radical parrot
Quick, Victor H, name three high-ranking achievements of Christopher Pell!
This is by far my favorite "fake X" test question XD
And as a fake tabletop rpb girl* I'm going to admit this conversation is flying straight over my head. Because I, like Victor, am honest! I bravely admit my lack of knowledge, unlike those dang fake geek girls!!!!!!!!!eleven!!!!!!specialsnowflake.
*whoops I actually just don't know…well, anything about them that you guys haven't said, since you're all my only exposure to them, but I'm hanging around you all so obviously I'm trying to convince victor I'm an awesome rpg playing geek, or something.
Forgive me if this makes no sense, I just woke up (like an hour ago) and my brain's still sleepy.
Kiasyd…Salubri…yeah I have standing to complain (to be fair, she was going to be my deus ex you guy are idiots machina as ST)
Talacaris — shameless plug — I know one of the folks behind Averice, so yeah, I can dig relatively free form RPGs.
Oh and Yale prof, elite gamer and Mayflower family, if that doesn't count then…psych ward doctor, or was it psych once and doctor once?
This is only making me aware of how long it's been since I did any RP whatsoever. (I did some D&D, but of all the times I played, the only time I had a good time was when I played a lawful-neutral half-orc bureaucrat in a group made up entirely of anarchists. GOOD TIMES! My character was incredibly unlucky, incredibly stuffy, survived the campaign by the skin of her teeth, and became the favorite character of everyone around me.)
The reason fake geek girls get so upset about being asked questions about their supposed fandom is because they're FGGs and can't answer them, thus outing themselves as FGGs.
But female geeks aren't upset because of "being asked questions." They're upset because they're being actively excluded from the geek subculture for no good reason.
Yeah, horseshit, seeing as on this very thread, my sister got posthumously grilled on her geekiness by Asher. My geekiness, of course, has never been grilled.
I can say I've been watching Dr Who since I was four but I've never seen an episode of Star Trek: Enterprise and nobody cares and I'm still a geek.
I can say I've played every edition of Dungeons and Dragons, but I couldn't name five Pokemon. Still a geek.
I can probably name a couple of dozen members of the Green Lantern Corps just from memory, but I haven't seen Iron Man 3. Still a geek..
My knowledge of geek culture is necessarily incomplete. Everyone's is. There are things I know and things I don't know.
As a man, people say: knows his Dr Who, D&D and Green Lantern: Geek.
If I were a woman it would be: doesn't know her Star Trek, Pokemon or Iron Man. FGG.
It's just that stupid and unfair.
Guy Gardner, WOOOOOO!
I always kind of liked Kilowog.
Kilowog is also awesome.
…yeah, there's a reason I don't read the Big Two much anymore. Superheroes are my cheesy pleasure, but GODDAMN.
Yeah, I stopped reading regularly when Kyle Rayner came in. Later, I had a look when they brought Hal back. I had a look at some of the other comics on the shelf, and the first one I picked up killed off my favourite character, the Blue Beetle. Gave up on superhero comics then and there.
Ah, you're a Ted Kord fan too? Yeah, his death sucked. And then he got ERASED FROM CANON. Thanks, DC.
LBT: They what? Erased from canon? Seriously? Oh, man!
What was the maximum speed of the Enterprise in Star Trek, the Original Series?
Fast enough to get there in the nick of time.
RE: Sir Bodsworth
Yeah, DC rebooted its canon a few years ago. Last I checked, Amanda Waller was a hot babe and Ted Kord no longer existed.
This is why I stopped reading DC. Losing Kord, I could've survived, but AMANDA WALLER???? *cries*
Gaaah! Just googled 'sexy Amanda Waller'. Seriously DC?
I KNOOOOOW. Amanda Waller was my favorite female character in the DC Universe, because she had no powers, was tough as nails, and stood down Batman when he tried to spook her in the shower. Seriously, most people, on finding Batman in their bathroom after a shower, would rightly shit themselves with fear and sob in a corner, while Amanda Waller sticks to her guns and tells him to get the fuck out of her bathroom.
And now the woman, one of the few in comics who wasn't a sex object or a mom, has become exactly what she wasn't. I AM SO SAD.
I look forward to seeing Harvey Bullock lose weight and start working out. Maybe get his hair styled, you know?
God, I hope not. I LIKE Bullock. He makes me feel better about not having anywhere to go on Christmas. (In Batman: the Animated Series, he works through it.)
Gah! Now I've seen the revamped Harley Quinn, and I can't unsee her!
Seriously, who looks at a woman in a completely skintight outfit and says "that's just not revealing enough"?
Seriously, one of the reason I've mostly stopped reading the Big Two is I'm kind of sick of the constant pandering to a very select demographic. If I want pandering, I'll read Empowered which at least delivers awesome and depth to its pandering 85% of the time.
I've only ever liked superheroes who were loners and spent most of their time skulking in the dark. Basically, Batman and Daredevil. I've given up on them because Marvel and DC (their mainstream titles) are way too driven by marketing considerations. It's as if every week on every TV show was ratings sweeps and every episode involved some world-shattering event. Endless reboots, "deaths" and so on. Anyway, I don't get the whole "fake geek girl" thing. Every male geek dreams of meeting an attractive girl who happens to be into the things he's into. I'm sure every ten-year-old boy thinks girls are weird because they like playing with Barbies instead of blowing stuff up in video games, because (objectively) blowing things up and killing monsters is more exciting than dressing up and going to parties. So any normal boy or man should welcome female geekery as a positive development. The whole controversy started when some comic book artist posted a rant about attractive women who supposedly went to conventions because, for some reason, they like attention from socially awkward, unattractive male geeks. Never mind that this is a completely insane idea, I've been to low key literary SF conventions and seen plenty of young women who do not fit the "geek" stereotype and were definitely not there to show off for anyone (although one pretty young girl sitting next to me at a performance of a play by Roger Zelazny did try to impress me with her knowledge of Gene Wolfe's "Book of the New Sun". I was duly impressed and it never once occurred to me that she had familiarized herself with Gene Wolfe purely in order to get attention from a paunchy, middle-aged, scruffy-looking guy at a science fiction convention).
Endless reboots, "deaths" and so on.
I read "Endless robots," which was kind of surreal and cool at the same time.
RE: Howard Bannister
Just as well I quit reading DC, looks like! If I want superheroes, I'll go for creator-owned. I prefer my superheroes tongue-in-cheek and with real thought behind the social ramifications of costumed vigilantes who consider themselves above the law.
RE: Falconer
I read "Endless robots," which was kind of surreal and cool at the same time.
Sounds like the inside of my brain!
I prefer my superheroes tongue-in-cheek and with real thought behind the social ramifications of costumed vigilantes who consider themselves above the law.
A little of that goes a long way, for me. Before too long it starts reading as mockery and judgment, possibly because the first place I ever read that kind of criticism was in MAD Magazine.
'Course, my favorite super is hardly any kind of Randian moral pole, no matter how hard Steve Ditko tried to make him one.
I just solved the problem by dating the chess team in high school the way most cheerleaders date the football team. You can thank me later for helping to prevent a few MRA's.
It's all in the name of feminism, I swear.

Brainsway Announces Final Results In Clinical Trial For Smoking Cessation In Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Patients
JERUSALEM, Jan. 24, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Brainsway Ltd. (TASE:BRIN) ("Brainsway" or the "Company) is pleased to announce that it has received final results with respect to a clinical trial that was conducted at the Be'er Ya'akov Mental Health Center to assess the efficacy of the Company's Deep TMS device in inducing smoking cessation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ("COPD") patients using a specialized coil developed for this purpose.
A total of 115 patients participated in the study. The trial subjects were divided into three groups: a sham treatment group, a low-frequency real stimulation treatment group and a high-frequency real stimulation treatment group. Half of the subjects in each group were exposed to cigarette cues designed to induce temporary cigarette craving prior to the start of each treatment session. Of these patients, 78 completed the treatment period (including 32 patients who received high-frequency treatment, 14 subjects who received low-frequency treatment and 32 subjects who received sham treatment). The Company noted that, following an interim analysis, follow-up in the low-frequency group was discontinued as no improvement was observed in this group compared with the sham control group.
The primary outcome measure for therapeutic efficacy was the change in patients' cigarette consumption levels, as measured both by self-report and by urinary cotinine (a metabolite of nicotine) levels at the end of the treatment period, and again six months after the end of treatment using only self-report.The results reveal a significant response (greater than 50% reduction in cigarette consumption) to treatment among approximately 81% of the high-frequency stimulation group subjects who were exposed to cigarette cues prior to treatment, compared to 12-29% of subjects in the other groups. Approximately 44% of the subjects in the high-frequency stimulation group that were exposed to cigarette cues before each treatment session achieved total smoking cessation. Approximately 84% of these subjects who achieved total smoking cessation at the end of the trial persisted in their abstinence six months after the end of the trial (as determined by self-report). A similar trend was revealed in subjects' cigarette dependence levels, as measured by the Fagerström Test for Nicotine Dependence (FTND).

Carmelo to Bulls? Then say bye to Deng, Gibson and more

Updated: February 8, 2014 6:29AM
As of Monday afternoon, coach Tom Thibodeau told the media that, after discussions with general manager Gar Forman and vice president John Paxson, "they're not actively seeking to move anybody.''
By midnight, Bulls forward Luol Deng was sent to the Cleveland Cavaliers for Andrew Bynum and three draft picks.
Active must be in the eye of the beholder.
In acquiring Bynum and the picks, the Bulls are obviously taking steps to reload through what is expected to be a draft filled with elite talent. At the same time, it doesn't sound like Thibodeau is on the same page with his front office, especially with the Bulls taking a step back in talent by sending Thibodeau's favorite player to a division rival.
A Bulls source not only confirmed the deal but insisted the organization "was not tanking.''
That was a tough sell considering all Deng does for the Bulls. It might even be a tougher sell to Thibodeau.
"When you look at the college players that are available, everyone says it's going to be a great draft,'' Thibodeau said recently of the idea of NBA teams tanking.
"You never really know until they get here, then at the end of their career, you can say whether it was a great draft or not. Teams that are changing because of either free agency or players retiring, I think a normal progression would be, 'OK, the team has changed so we're going into rebuilding, so what's that mean?' Everything is so much more under a microscope now that people, I think, jump to conclusions. Sometimes you just have to let it play out.
"Once you allow [tanking to] creep in, you're heading down a slippery slope. To me, we all owe it to each other and the organization to give everything we have every single day. I'm looking at our team, and I like the possibilities. I love our team.''
The next move for the Bulls will be dumping Bynum by 4 p.m. Tuesday before the second half of his $12.3 million salary kicks in, and with Deng and Bynum off the books, the Bulls will save more than $15 million in salary, taking them below the salary cap and out of luxury-tax hell.
As for Deng, he was going to be a free agent at the end of the season, and when the Bulls stopped negotiations for a contract extension back in the summer, the writing was on the wall that he could be headed for a trade.
It was all but cemented Nov. 22, when the Bulls lost guard Derrick Rose to a season-ending right knee injury. But through it all, the Bulls continued to insist that they weren't making calls on any of their players, only taking them.
Thibodeau reiterated that Monday, and even went as far as to say that with the roster as is, he could win with it. As for the trade rumors, Thibodeau downplayed them.
"Well, the thing is, and that's the nature of this league, there's always something, whether it's a contract, usually when you get closer to the trade deadline, you hear about a lot of stuff then,'' Thibodeau said. "And you're in control of that, whether you're going to allow that to impact you in a negative way, but there is always talk about something. That's the challenge of this league, not to get distracted, to concentrate on the things that are necessary to win.
"You're a professional player, so the same things go into winning: Establish your routine. The things you have no control over, don't worry about it. Do what you have to do for your team.''

Solomon Northup's ominous journey to New York City, 1841
An engraving featured in Solomon Northup's narrative Twelve Years A Slave, published in 1853.
The New York farmer and musician Solomon Northup was sold into slavery in 1841, tricked by two supposed members of a circus troupe, promising Northrup work in their traveling show. Instead, Northrup awoke in bondage, eventually smuggled to New Orleans where he faced years of cruel servitude under a variety of plantation owners. After regaining his freedom in 1853, he wrote the narrative Twelve Years A Slave, his harrowing account of his years in the South.
The book became a best-seller within Republican abolitionist circles, released a year after Harriet Beecher Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin. It was certainly in the possession of Henry Ward Beecher, Harriet's younger brother, who turned his Brooklyn pulpit at Plymouth Church into a sounding board for abolitionist ideas. (One hundred and sixty years later, the Oscar-nominated film version of Twelve Years A Slave, starring Chiwetel Ejiofor as Northup, played at Brooklyn Heights Cinema, located one block away from Beecher's church.)
Northup and his family lived in upstate New York, but New York City proper plays a small but ominous role in his narrative. Lured by the promise of employment by two men named Brown and Hamilton, Northup travels from home in Saratoga, first to Albany, then to New York itself:
"They hurried forward, without again stopping to exhibit, and in due course of time, we reached New-York, taking lodgings at a house on the west side of the city, in a street running from Broadway to the river."
Below: A view of Broadway (between Howard and Grand Streets) in 1840. To the south of this view was Canal Street and Five Points.
"I supposed my journey was at an end, and expected in a day or two at least, to return to my friends and family at Saratoga. Brown and Hamilton, however, began to importune me to continue with them to Washington. They alleged that immediately on their arrival, now that the summer season was approaching, the circus would set out for the north. They promised me a situation and high wages if I would accompany them.
Largely did they expatiate on the advantages that would result to me, and such were the flattering representations they made, that I finally concluded the offer."
Northup agrees to accompany them further north to Washington DC. It would be there that Northup would be drugged and sold into bondage by his two nefarious companions. But before they leave New York, they suggest that Solomon perform a certain task, curious given the subsequent events which occurred:
"The next morning they suggested that, inasmuch as we were about entering a slave State, it would be well, before leaving New-York, to procure free papers. The idea struck me as a prudent one, though I think it would scarcely have occurred to me, had they not proposed it.
We proceeded at once to what I understood to be the Custom House. They made oath to certain facts showing I was a free man."
Why is there a little confusion in Northrup's statement regarding the Custom House? Perhaps because the building he would have visited -- at 22-24 Wall Street -- was in its final days as New York's Custom House, an office which had grown far too small for the task. The following year, New York's new Custom House would have at last been opened at the other end of the block -- the building that is today's Federal Hall.
Below: Northrup and his associates would have entered the building at the far right of this illustration (which depicts Wall Street in 1825)
"Some further formalities were gone through with before it was completed, when, paying the officer two dollars, I placed the papers in my pocket, and started with my two friends to our hotel. I thought at the time, I must confess, that the papers were scarcely worth the cost of obtaining them – the apprehension of danger to my personal safety never having suggested itself to me in the remotest manner."
Below: The interior of the New York Custom House, 1853

After its publication in 1853, Northup's account would be available for sale in certain New York bookstores for several years. But keep in mind New York's divided loyalties to the South; it would not have been a universally popular read here in the city.

Lasseter tied for ninth in GSGA Junior Championship
By staff
ROCKY FACE -- Gainesville's Grant Lasseter shot his way into the top 10 on Tuesday's second day of play in the Georgia State Golf Association's Junior Championship.
Lasseter carded a 3-over 75 to bring his two-day total to 148 -- a 4-over score that put him into a tie for ninth place in the three-day tournament at The Farm in Rocky Face. Dunwoody's Marcus Byrd and Waynesboro's Carter Mobley lead the tournament, tied at 3-under.
Lasseter's play led a group of seven area prep golfers to make the cut after two days play, including four other Gainesville High golfers.
Spencer Ralston also fired a 74 on Tuesday, moving to 7-over for the week, while Jackson Bishop is 10-over. Meanwhile, fellow Red Elephants Nathan Williams (14-over) and Lawson King (17-over) will also play on Wednesday. White County's Garrett Rowland is also at 17-over, while North Hall's Hunter Young is 18-over.
Play will continue on Wednesday in Rocky Face.

Pricey Japanese restaurant chain Nobu not only wants to feed you; it now wants to tuck you in after dinner.
In an ambitious bid to transform the brand into a hotel chain, Nobu plans to open a combined restaurant-hotel on the Las Vegas Strip next year. Actor Robert DeNiro is one of Nobu's owners.
Caesars Palace plans to spend millions of dollars on redesigning one of its towers into a 180-room Nobu tower, the Associated Press reports.
Back in 2008, a developer announced a plan to build a Nobu hotel in lower Manhattan, but it appears this one could open first.
An early inquiry to Twitter followers reveals mixed reviews, but at least one foodie gives the concept a thumbs up.
"I like it... Roomies and Foodies get along," wrote @hotelAGZ.
Nobu guests will have a separate check-in and room service from the restaurant. Caesars expects to close its Centurion Tower for renovations this summer.
Nobu Hospitality CEO Trevor Horwell says he hopes it's the first of many Nobu hotels around the world, the AP reports. The company has more than two dozen locations, including an existing Nobu at the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas, and one in the Hard Rock Hotel in San Diego.
Intriguing concept, isn't it?
I asked Twitter followers what they think about the idea of restaurant chains growing into hotel chains.
Twitter follower @SmithFamilyof6 said that it "depends on the quality of the restaurant."
Twitter follower @LinHumphrey expressed some doubt about this specific pairing, saying that "I could see a close partnership with a relevant brand like Mandarin Oriental."
Furthermore, he said, "you would need very high consumer involvement with a restaurant brand to drive high $ lodging choices."
Lin Humphrey's second comment made me think of the highly engaged fans of Starbucks, which - if this sort of a concept truly takes off - could be ideally positioned to launch a hotel. (See Starbucks post from April 2010.)
Readers: What do you think of this idea? And which restaurant chains (or brands) would you hope is developing a hotel chain concept? (Be specific. For instance, Cheesecake Factory? McDonald's? PF Chang's? Celebrity chefs such as Daniel Boulud?)

I haven't been very active on this board since early pregnancy but still try to follow when I can:
I'm thinking of you and Lincoln and hoping the Zofran works - we just had an IV in our son for an allergic reaction and it sucks - not sure if he's had one before (I know that's not encouraging but I want to be honest). However, the hosptial and I'm assuming most do a really good job of trying to make them comfortable with it. I was worried he would claw at it but he was feeling so poorly he didn't bother it. So scary when they are sick..
Lots of good vibes coming your way.
Thanks for the update.
I'm glad he's keeping something down. Hopefully that means he'll be back to his old self soon.
FWIW, DD2 gets SUPER lethargic when she has a stomach bug. It scared me so much the first time I took her straight to the ER, and even the triage nurse felt she was in bad enough shape to give her high priority. I'm used to it now, but it still scares me and breaks my heart every time it happens.

Alternating pressure therapeutics support system with on demand low air loss, 50 LPM compressor, automatic pressure monitoring and automatic wireless fowler.
New wireless fowler technology, real time pressure monitoring and energy conserving power units combine to make microAIR surfaces the most efficient dynamic support surfaces in the market. Within the power units is a pressure transducer that maintains surface pressure not to exceed 32mm/Hg. The solenoid valve within the compressor opens and closes the air valve automatically to maintain the pressure relief range prescribed. The compressor turns off to save energy when the patient is in the range.
Wireless Fowler Technology is an innovation exclusive that assures patient comfort. From time to time patients need to sit up in bed, which creates the problem of additional pressure in the coccyx area and possible disruption of treatment.
Working in sync with the power unit, the transmitter installed in the head section of the mattress signals the power unit when the head portion begins to raise. The power unit immediately begins adding 25% more air to the mattress to prevent patient contact with a hard surface.
Over the last 30+ years, Invacare has led the way with groundbreaking innovations that fundamentally changed the industry. Invacare delivers breakthrough innovations in comfort and style for beds, furnishings and accessories. Smart design and high-quality construction make Invacare beds and furnishings durable and safe.

Perfect SpamSnake - Bug or misconfiguration, attachments not forwarded
I have a problem which is happening with at least one user and that I can reproduce: A message is received by the SpamSnake, it contains some text with an XLS file attached. I can see the message in MailWatch, it is 1.5MB and I can see and download the XLS attachment no problem. The messages for this server are forwarded to an SMTP server in another location. This particular message is received at the other end but without the attachment. The SMTP server log shows that the SpamSnake announce a SIZE of 1.5MB but only the 3.5KB of text is delivered. However, if I open the message in MailWatch, go at the bottom and select to RELEASE it, the the user will also get the same 1.5MB SIZE announcement but this time the message is delivered with the attachment. The same message sent to an Hotmail account is delivered no problem. This hotmail message sent to the same email address on the Spamsnake show the same problem with no attachment delivered.
I hope I was clear enough, if someone could point be in a direction to search for this problem, I'd appreciate very much. Thanks.

The Running of the Bulls will return to Scottsdale this fall.
Styled after the famous 400-year-old event in Pamplona, Spain, Rawhide Western Town and Steakhouse announced Friday it plans to again host the three-day event in October.
Phoenix promoter Phil Immodino, who brought the event to Rawhide initially in 2002, said he was unable to stage the event last year because he couldn't come up with a $5 million insurance policy required by Rawhide.
"I have secured the insurance and we have an agreement with Rawhide," Immodino said. "Now we are in the process of working with sponsors."
The event, which drew 1,000 runners and 10,000 spectators in 2002, will be held Oct. 1-3.
During that running there were only a few minor injuries, Immodino said, but the American version is not as dangerous as the event in Spain.
"The bulls in Spain are bred for bull fighting, where these bulls are bred for rodeo," Immodino said. "Being run over by a fellow participant is more likely to happen than being gored by a bull."
Participants will run a one-third-mile desert track while being chased by 20 half-ton bulls. The course follows a 14- to 25-foot path enclosed by a 6-foot steel pipe fence.
Safety precautions to protect the bulls and runners will be incorporated in the event, Rawhide spokeswoman Sandy Staples-Trudel said. Escape exits for runners will be located every 100 feet and professional rodeo cowboys will act as escorts. Emergency medical treatment will also be available.
Alcohol and drug use are prohibited prior to the runs, Immodino said.
"If anyone looks like they're tipsy, we're going to throw them out."
Immodino staged the first American bull-running events in 1998 and 1999 in Mesquite, Nev.
"People are always asking me why anyone would want to be chased by bulls," Immodino said. "It's for an adrenaline rush. The same reason someone would jump out of a plane and bungee jumping. It's an opportunity for people to do something they haven't done before

Panetta to lift ban on women in combat
Women in all branches of the military soon will have unprecedented opportunities to serve on the front lines of the nation's wars.
Leon Panetta, in one of his last acts as President Obama's defense secretary, is preparing to announce the policy change, which would open hundreds of thousands of front-line positions and potentially elite commando jobs after more than a decade at war, the Pentagon confirmed Wednesday.
The groundbreaking move recommended by the Joint Chiefs of Staff overturns a 1994 rule banning women from being assigned to smaller ground combat units. Panetta's decision gives the military services until January 2016 to seek special exceptions if they believe any positions must remain closed to women.
"This policy change will initiate a process whereby the services will develop plans to implement this decision, which was made by the secretary of defense upon the recommendation of the Joint Chiefs of Staff," a senior defense official told reporters on condition of anonymity.

Go for it! We're all gonna die anyway.+1
They closed the Mental Hospitals so these democrats could be in the Obama administration.+3
Only one question. In combat against current combatants, will a mandatory scarf be required of female personal or should this be equal treatment and all genders wear appropriate face gear?Noteworthy Comment +11
As a 21 year retired vet, I can unequivocally state this will be a disaster.
The WY Guard allowed women to serve as cannoneers in the late 70′s to early 80′s. Not only could they NOT perform the tasks required (8″ SP howitzers were labor intensive) one gun section in B battery devolved into fist fights every night over the privilege of being the "tent mate" of the female crew member. Granted, this girl was truly a little slut, but in other gun crews with a female present, cohesiveness and Espirit 'd Corps were adversely affected.
This policy was so detrimental that the Adjutant General eventually ordered ALL females be be reassigned to HQ. We lost clerks, cooks and mechanics from my battery which we could ill afford, but at least we could "whip it out" in the field and take a leak without straining to see were the females were.
And that's why our soldiers will die needlessly – because they will divide their attention from the task at hand in order to "look out" for the girls. That's just the nature of boys, especially ones motivated to serve their country. There are plenty of opportunities for females in the military, but placing them in foxholes is beyond stupid – it's a death wish.Noteworthy Comment +10
What kind of a woman would want to be a rifleman? It takes nerves, stamina, determination and dedication. To subdivide the focus of an infantryman by giving him a female battle buddy is counter-productive. I don't give a shit what Liberals say, girls and boys are different.
About 50% of the females involved in Desert Storm were sent home pregnant. This is also the ticket out of the Navy, where girl sailors are routinely pulled from duty or even transferred off their ship because somehow, they've gotten themselves pregnant in spite of being "against regulations."
Stupid, stupid, stupid….. Panetta needs a slap up along side the head. Doubtful it would knock any sense into him, but his teeth need to be rattled anyway.+9
Great! Put our men in more harms way. How many men are going to be trying to protect a woman rather than keeping an eye on the target. I agree, Roadmaster, this will be a disaster.
Shithead Panetta. And, he's NEVER served a day of service in uniform. F*ck You.+7
So my oldest daughter is 12. Will Selective service registration the next step for the ladies? Over my dead body. Who are these imbeciles?+3
@Roadmaster. You speak the truth. I would only add that we will see an all-volunteer, all female military before the Obuffoons quit trying. They would be content with a 500,000 girl DOD anyway.+1
I have 2 daughters ages 27 & 24. My oldest daughter has a Masters Degree and my 24 yr. old is going to college, they are both doing well. I agree with Hank, over my dead body would I ever allow either one to be drafted. My oldest daughter is too well educated and her boyfriend/future husband agrees with me and my youngest daughter has some birth defects (doesn't slow her down one bit, she's the most compassionate person that I know because of some adversity in her life) which would make her ineligible for service. I always said that I would go underground and actively discourage young women from joining the military if they were foolish enough to allow them to go into combat or even worse draft them. What little death and destruction I saw at the end of the Viet Nam War when I was in the Navy and being subject to the last draft in 1972 before Nixon ended the the draft, I have always been of the opinion that women can serve but they have no business being deliberately placed into harms way. Call me old school if you will, I don't even like the idea of women on ships. I will not sacrifice my daughters on the altar of political correctness. To Hell with Leon Panetta and this whole damned administration. They're playing with fire and when the first women come home in body bags, what are they going to tell the parents of any dead young woman killed in combat, that its OK. You don't know how furious I am pissed off about this. We're killing our future while at the same time we are also doing it with abortion and now pushing Granny etc. and anyone else who is in the way down the hospice chute. May God have mercy on us, we need all the mercy we can get to overcome this EVIL and LAWLESS administration.+5
And another thing when are they going to create Rush's fabled All American Amazon Brigade? Women with PMS to do all the fighting.+1
This won't go far. Can't wait to see what the reports coming back from the women who find out what 4 months without bathing and living out of a truck contain. Guessing these front line positions are going to go unfilled a lot. I am all for women on the front, as long as the armed forces get rid of the double standards for fitness, job activity, and no more pregnacy discharges and no more days off for 'female problems'(gotta love that period, amiright?). Wanna be a Sapper/Ranger/SEAL/PJ? Fine, don't get knocked up or you'll end up in Leavenworth for dereliction of duty. If I have to carry a 40lb satchel charge plus the bipod for the crew serve in addition to my regular load, so will she. I've met exactly 2 females that could have done my job and I'd welcome them anyday, but they could hack it whereas the rest of them definitely could not.+5
Having read an account of the Battle of Fallujah, I know the true "Achilles Heel" of women in combat — the urinary tract infection.
Long term combat in close quarters is not only bloody but also filthy — your drawers tend to get a little messy. You sometimes shit yourself a little. In Fallujah, the presence of so many dead and decaying jihadist bodies made all the Americans troops a little sick with the runs.
Men can live with shitty drawers for a week, but wouldn't these conditions put every woman on the planet in a hospital with a urinary tract infection? I recall one of my daughter's friends being hospitalized for a week with a UTF, so I know this is nothing to sniff at.+7
I heard a report somewhere (BBCAmerica maybe) that front line service will be voluntary and not many women were that interested when given the choice. There are those who want a career as an officer that feel that not having a combat assignment hinders their promotion prospects- so they would most likely be the ones who would volunteer.
Besides, under Obama, what front line service will what's left of our military have anymore? We'll be leading from behind around the world.+1
We'll all be in the People's Army soon.+2
Having only served in the Navy for 6 years I don't have as much credit here, however… I was stationed onboard the USS John C. Stennis (CVN 74) Reactor Mechanical Division. As goes with carriers, we had a large number of females and every time a woman got busted for having sex on the ship she would go to Captain's Mast and then give up her little black book and then other divisions would be down about 12 to 20 people. That sucks when you are out to sea and the rest of us have to pick up the slack.
Now for my perspective. As a mechanic you are expected to operate very large valves that are placed in the overhead (above 6'). I can tell you that not a single one of the females on that ship could start up a Main Feed Pump (lots of large valves and a lot of upper body strength required) by themselves!!!
To make it worse, the Physical Readiness Testing requirements are vastly different. I have to do 50 push-ups, 50 sit-ups, and run the mile and a half in under 14 mins. Girls only have to do 12 push-ups, 15 sit-ups and they get 18 mins to run. Yet somehow we are expected to do the same job, how the hell does that compute?+7
panetta has been and forever will be known as a partisan hack. This "do nothing" lifting of the ban on women in combat is to distract concentration from his utter incompetence while dismantling our military as defense secretary.
Our military is blessed to have some of the best and brightest women serving this nation.
Repeatedly it has been found that the physical demands of a combat role eliminate many men and most (if not all) women from special operations and infantry combat positions. The criteria for selection of individuals to combat occupation specialties must not change for the purpose of political correctness.
Again, panettea has excelled at announcing a "do nothing" policy and shifted the focus away from his (and obama's)legacy of partisan bickering, mis-steps, failures and dismantling of our military.
Funny how this hack's announcement was timed with hillary's Benghazi debacle testimony.
Diffuse, distract, deceit, deception….the obama play book.+4
Send 'em all to the front.0
Maybe it's not a bad idea for the "soldiers" in the "War on Women."0

Set of two 22K yellow gold-plated brass circle station bangle bracelets with pink chalcedony details and clear cubic zirconia accents
Measurements: 2½" in diameter, entire set measures ¾" wide
Material: 22K yellow gold-plated brass, chalcedony, and cubic zirconia
Brand: Kanupriya
Origin: Imported
Kanupriya Khurana left her corporate job in human resources to launch her boho-chic eponymous jewelry line in 2010, and we're so glad that she did. Kanupriya reflects Khurana's mastery of color and form: chalcedony clusters crown tilted green onyx squares or druzy ovals to form dramatic drop earrings; polished labradorite, jasper, and hydro amethyst of various shapes jut out at many different angles to form playful statement necklaces; and pink tourmaline and cubic zirconia form delicate flowers to add a feminine touch to chunky gold-plated bangle bracelets. A self-taught designer, Khurana describes her earrings, oversize cocktail rings, thick cuffs and other pieces as modern-meets-vintage. We describe them as stunning-meets-necessary.

Police in the US city of Los Angeles have released photos found at the home of a man accused of the "Grim Sleeper" serial killings.
Close to 160 women are depicted in the images and police announced on Thursday that are trying to identify them.
Lonnie Franklin Jr has pleaded not guilty to the murders of 10 women from 1985 to 1988 and from 2002 to 2007.The apparent 14-year pause in the alleged crimes led to the nickname "Grim Sleeper," though detectives suspect Franklin could be involved in other deaths.Police also said they found numerous sexually explicit photographs and home videos of scores of women when they searched the home of the car mechanic.Authorities also sought the public's help when they released images of about 160 women and asked anyone who recognised them to come forward."We certainly do not believe that we are so lucky, or so good, as to know all of his victims,'' Charlie Beck, the police chief said. "We need the public's help.''The photos and videos were found at Franklin's home and garage during a three-day search after his July arrest."Now that we know who he is and what type of activity he is involved in with women, we are very concerned for everyone in these photographs,'' Dennis Kilcoyne, a detective, said.
Published onlinePolice displayed the photographs for media and have made the images available online. By Thursday afternoon, the LAPD's website had slowed to a crawl after its Texas-based server was strained by a massive surge in people trying to click through to the pictures.In almost every photo, the subject is smiling at the camera. Some women could have been naked but it is difficult to tell in the tightly cropped images.Others were photographed outside as part of a group photograph.The women appear to be willing participants in what police said were sexually explicit images."It baffles me how he is so successful at getting women to do what he asks them to do,'' Kilcoyne said."It's not like we have pictures of him holding a knife to someone's neck.''Detectives said the photos span decades and were taken on 35mm film, Polaroids and digital cameras. The women range from young teens to their 60s.Except for two or three white women and a Latina, all the women are black.Some appear to be asleep, and several known victims of the serial killer were said to be prostitutes.Detectives would not say if any of the women photographed might have been involved in the sex trade.All of Franklin's alleged victims were killed within a few miles of his home, where neighbours knew him as a talented backyard mechanic.
Police also have said they suspect Franklin in the death of a man who may have discovered he was a killer. In addition, they are reviewing more than 30 other cold-case files to see if they can tie Franklin to other slayings.
Franklin was taken into custody last summer after his son was arrested and swabbed for DNA. Using a technique known as a familial DNA search, the sample came back as similar to evidence in the serial killings, ultimately leading police to Franklin.

Keep up with the news by installing RT's extension for . Never miss a story with this clean and simple app that delivers the latest headlines to you.
Everyone remembers the spectacular four-and-a-half hour meeting last August in Moscow between President Putin and Bandar Bush – aka Bandar bin Sultan, Saudi Arabia's Director of National Intelligence.
View full story
Riyahd should be nuked. And probably also Tel Aviv. The Saudi and zionist entities are tearing the world apart and they need to be stopped by any means necessary. - A Christian American of Irish and Welsh extraction.
just to say there is a mistake in the first sentence in the post just posted it is want a dictatorship. The PC I use has as much use as a rice field in the South Pole.
First of Pres Al Assad is NOT a dictator what a dictatorship try the West and allies. Secondly Pres Al Assad WILL win the elections in Syria as he has a majority support in Syria and around the world. The brilliant Pres Putin like in the August 2013 meeting looks at Prince Bandar like a pathetic waste of space and like in August meeting most likely said an emphatic NIET. US as it is a known fact is the inventor of poisonous lies and propaganda not to mention hypocricy just as it is thought their little meeting wiht the poison that is the Oppostion is about aid. Foreign Policy better off without US and Isreal.
The thought that KSA could buy out a superpower is about as stupid as growing rice in the south pole . Bandar should take Putin's "prophecy" very seriously !
The Jihadis have succeeded in one thing, and that is fusing many creeds and ethnic components of Syria into one lump, and this lump represents at least 70% of the Syrian population. A new elections in Syria will produce a large Majority for ASSAD. Putin proved to be a master strategist. look at the map, a line connecting the Pacific to the Mediterranian, From China to Russia to Iran to to Iraq,to Syria, and thus the Meditterranian. only 5 pivotal states.
Long Live Assad. It makes me ashamed to see my country supporting terrorists, and truthfully Assad IS a good leader/dictator, far more progressive than the Saudi Kingdom. knowing more of the facts leads me to the conclusion the UK supports whatever America does, which doesnt even seem 'Democratic'. Are we supposed to believe we the people of UK could have voted for a political party that does agree with US foriegn policy??? please. Give me a moderate dictator who can take criticism, I'd respect that more than this Circus.
"The US is becoming Energy Indepentent(er)" ;
The USA becoming oil independant only matters if it can remain so as it steals oil for its corporate giants as it has always done. Having stolen Iran's oil from 1953 until 1979 I'd suggest that the USA owes Iran about a trillion dollars.
I have always propagated
Propagated?? The heads of the serpants are in a variety of places and not only Saudi Arabia but a vile demon of a head snorts out flames of war from Washington, DC.
Morgan? " Excuse me Bandy,but I have to pass wind!" "
I though you just ad from two directions.
Narrative may be close to the truth, taking in account the loud silence in Western media in regards of this folly of fools. Lovely written too, you need a bulldozer of sarcasm how the Obama admins handle Europe's security matter not speaking of the Syrian population.
Cant wait for some fat CNN chick reporting on the moderate Al-Qaida activists using that warehouse...
Before the opium addict Lawrence of Arabia turned these desert bedouins into "royalty" with an annual £5,000 stipend from Queen Victoria, the camel jockeys used to make do with desert sand for Kleenex ! al-saud may soon find the sound of a bulldozer near his al-Oudh grave, karma is a beach !
Laugh One: Bandar the Bonobo says Dr Assad may not run for president in 2014.
Don't say that. It's not fair to Bonobos.
How can the US talk about being indispensable for stability in the Middle East and world peace when it escalates the war in Syria endlessly and needlessly? The US should look at it own actions, maybe it would then realize that with exception of Obama's false assertions, nobody sees the US as a force for either good, peace anywhere or democracy.
By stability they mean the uninterrupted ability of defence contractors and wall street bankers to make a buck.
I have always propagated that Saudi Arabia is the sponsor and head of all terrorists acts and unless the head of the serpent is severed from the body it will still possess life and carry on with its treacherous activities. It si time for the head of the serpent to be severed.
Come on Putin!!! you've poisoned people for less... and more publically!
Why isn't Bandar Bush be up on war crimes charges at The Hague?
It is tragic that Saudi Arabia supports this blood bath by paying the jihadis - according to western press Bandar wants to recruit another 50'000 mercenaries, while the US including special ops troupes train and arm rebels in Jordan which they want to infiltrate into a safe zone south west of Damascus. Again, the US thinks that will depose Assad and plan A can be re-instituted: destroy Syria, separate Iran from it and Hezbollah, attack Iran. That explains the unjust new sanctions on Iran by the US despite agreements against that - it means the US doesn't want a final agreement. The Zionists in Congress took over.
Laugh One: Bandar the Bonobo says Dr Assad may not run for president in 2014. Says who, Pepe?
Laugh Two: Power must be transferred in the interim to an administration run by the armed (terrorist) opposition - yeah, right: in your Captagon dreams, monkey-face!
Lau gh Three: the FSA's Mengele-clone Idrees runs to Doha as the Bandar-baboons overrun his arms warehouse.
Laugh Four (life-threatening guffaws): The white trash terror-enablers and paid liars in the Pentagon and the Beltway, say they 'don't know how much non-lethal aid' was seized by the Islamic Front. As if!
