Arizona Cardinals
John Clayton: You just don't get excited about this year's rookie QBs
For all we know, the Arizona Cardinals went into the NFL Scouting Combine interested in taking one of the quarterbacks with their first round pick.
But if that was indeed the case, they may be leaving with a different idea. Because, according to ESPN NFL insider John Clayton, no one really helped themselves over the weekend.
"I thought this was going to be one where one or two or three quarterbacks who have been working out for five, six weeks, testing everything and trying to get their games better, I thought somebody was going to light it up and nobody lit it up," he told Arizona Sports 620's Doug and Wolf Monday. "But that doesn't mean they're not going to go in the first round; it just means they're going to go in a lower part of the first round."
West Virginia's Geno Smith, USC's Matt Barkley, Arkansas' Tyler Wilson, Florida State's EJ Manuel, North Carolina State's Mike Glennon, Syracuse's Ryan Nassib and Tennessee's Tyler Bray are all intriguing talents, as are Kansas State's Collin Klein and Arizona's Matt Scott.
The Cardinals, as we know, are picking seventh, which may be a bit high for a passer in this draft.
And all it takes is for one team to fall in love with a player and take him earlier than most think he should go for all the dominoes to start to fall.
Seemingly every year a team or two "reaches" for a signal caller earlier than most think they should, and there's nothing saying new coach Bruce Arians and his staff won't I.D. a player and make sure they get him.
"I still think it's going to be two or three," Clayton said of quarterbacks taken in the first round. "But you just don't get excited about it because this group isn't as good as the group in the last two years."

Phl to probe power generators' conspiracy
Presidential Spokesperson Edwin Lacierda said Energy Secretary Carlos Jericho Petilla and Justice Secretary Leila de Lima continue to work hand in hand on the case.
Lacierda said President Benigno Aquino III is awaiting for results of the investigation if there was, indeed, a conspiracy among power generators.
"I think reasonable profit is fair to everyone," Lacierda said, adding that all power generators are entitled to reasonable profit.
Meralco had already filed a petition with the Supreme Court seeking power rate adjustment.
The public reacted sharply to Meralco's course of action saying it's not their obligation to shoulder the transmission charges imposed by power generators.
Meralco's demand for a power rate hike, however, was blocked by another petition filed by militant groups seeking a temporary restraining order.

The other day a new client came to my house to drop off his laptop for me to fix as he was having problems with receiving his emails. When he arrived he handed me a small leather case which I assumed was the case for either a charger or a external laptop CDRom and waited for him to hand me the actual laptop. When he didnt I asked "could I see the laptop?" and he said that IS the laptop. I opened up the leather case and found this little gem. The new Sony VAIO UX180P Micro PC.
After I finished fixing his email problem I asked him if I could take some photos of it. When you are a computer technician you see alot of different things regarding computers but I have never seen anything like this. The green attachment you see attached to it is a broadband wireless modem that uses the mobile phone networks. This thing is truely a portable PC.
I know there are plenty of portable systems out there such as PDAs, Windows enabled mobile phones and other systems running custom operating systems but this is really a laptop with the same funtionality as any other regular PC laptop. It runs the same copy of Windows XP that you would install on your desktop PC.
To use this PC you have a thumb joystick on the right hand side and 2 buttons for your left and right click on the left hand side. The only thing I didnt like about this is that you had to put the unit down to do any typing.
The specifications of this "micro PC" are:
– Intel® Core┞¢ Solo Processor U1400 (1.20GHz).
– Genuine Windows® XP Professional
– 4.5″ Wide SVGA LCD, Touch Screen 1
– Integrated WLAN, WWAN, and Bluetooth® technology
– 512MB3 RAM and 30GB4 (4200 rpm) hard drive
The offical website for this product can be found here.
I wonder if this PC is the first wave of the future of laptops or it is just a once off.

QUINCY – Thursday, March 1, 2012 – Lieutenant Governor Timothy Murray today highlighted $1 million in grant funding to enhance the Adams Green Park in Quincy, one of the Commonwealth's 22 Gateway Cities. Today's visit was an opportunity to join local and state officials to celebrate this grant funding to help move the Adams Green Park project forward along with ongoing redevelopment plans in Quincy's downtown district.
"Parks are key resources that strengthen the fabric of communities across Massachusetts," said Lieutenant Governor Murray. "By committing resources to our parks, our Administration and municipal partners are providing more recreational opportunities for people of all ages and effecting positive change in our neighborhoods and communities."
The funding for the Adams Green Park in Quincy is supported by one of the Patrick-Murray Administration's signature initiatives, the Gateway Cities Parks Program. This program, along with the Parkland Acquisitions and Renovations for Communities program, the Administration has invested more than $72.9 million since 2007, resulting in the creation or restoration of 154 parks.
Today's announced $1 million for the Adams Green Park will support the design and construction documents necessary to build Adams Green, planned as a centerpiece of a reinvigorated downtown Quincy. This planned park will be a new civic open space featuring a unifying town green and promenade.
"A big part of our commitment to land conservation is focused on investing in cities and towns and our Gateway City Parks program helps conserve green space in our urban areas, invigorating neighborhoods and improving the lives of residents across the state," said Energy and Environmental Affairs Secretary Richard K. Sullivan Jr. "The project here in Quincy highlights the value that Governor Patrick and Lieutenant Governor Murray place on parks and open space protection, utilizing strong public/private partnerships to effect positive change in our cities."
In May 2011, Governor Deval Patrick signed into law an act that will move forward the $1.6 billion urban renewal of downtown Quincy and create thousands of new construction and permanent jobs as part of the Administration's overall commitment to strengthening the Commonwealth's communities and unlocking new economic development opportunities for public-private partnerships.
The new law facilitates the City's land disposition agreement with the developer for the redevelopment of Quincy Center. It will afford the City more oversight while utilizing the state's Urban Redevelopment Corporation program (MGL C.121A) by shifting certain approval measures from the Commonwealth's Department of Housing and Community Development to the Quincy Department of Planning and Community Development.
"The downtown Quincy redevelopment project is one of the largest private development projects underway in the Commonwealth, and will have not just local, but regional and even statewide economic implications," said Senator John Keenan. "The Adams Green will be a civic and cultural cornerstone for the project; a piece of downtown green space that will serve as a bridge between Quincy's historic treasures and its new, vibrant development. I thank the Patrick Administration for their ongoing support of this historic project."
The Patrick-Murray Administration has made numerous investments in the Commonwealth's Gateway Cities. The Administration has implemented the following strategy to make the state's Gateway Cities communities centers of economic activity:
- Make long-term investments in education, innovation and infrastructure, with special attention to the growth potential of each city's entrepreneurs and small businesses.
- Leverage the potential of each community's distinctive assets, including their educational, medical and cultural institutions, and their historic buildings and neighborhoods.
- Connect Gateway Cities to other local, state and global centers of innovation and economic activity.
In keeping with this strategy, the Patrick-Murray Administration has made the following Gateway City investments:
- $1,855,536,592 in Chapter 70 Education Funding and Unrestricted Local Aid in 2009.
- Over $1 billion in active construction contracts through MassDOT.
- Over $20 million in Gateway City Parks grants for park projects in 24 cities.
- $109,150,534 since 2007 in public safety grants for police and fire departments and non- profit agencies to maintain staffing levels and combat violence.
- $17,484,882 since 2007 in Workforce Training Grants.

I see that oat flour is listed as an "avoid" for us "O" blood
types, but there is a receipe in Dr. D's first book for Carob Chip
Cookies and it calls for either oat or rice (?) flour.
Is oat flour ok or not?
I won't use it, but would like to know if anyone can tell me?

Schumer's Booby Trap, De Facto Registration Still Alive
By Harold Hutchison
The gun bill headed to the floor of the United States will contain a plan for so-called "universal background checks" that would amount to de facto gun registration. The legislation will likely be debated in April.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) announced the bill, authored by Senator Charles Schumer (D-NY) will be headed to the floor. The decision gives gun-grabbers some hope after Reid had earlier announced that a ban on certain semi-automatic firearms and magazines holding more than 10 rounds of ammunition would only be offered as amendments.
Anti-gun activists had hoped to push through sweeping legislation in the wake of the 14 December, 2012 mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School, where 20 children and six adults were killed.

Exenatide is taken by injection twice daily and is approved for use alone or in combination with a variety of oral diabetes drugs. Liraglutide is also taken by injection, but only once daily. Both products are sold in prefilled pens (similar to insulin pens). These drugs can lower HbA1c by about 1%.
Another big advantage of these drugs is that their use often leads to weight loss. This occurs because they slow the rate at which food is moved from the stomach to the intestines, thus prolonging the feeling of fullness after a meal. They may also signal the brain to directly reduce feelings of hunger. Common side effects of these drugs include nausea and vomiting, particularly when just starting therapy. It is important with either drug to increase the dose slowly from a low level to avoid these side effects as much as possible. Exenatide is removed from the body by the kidneys and is therefore not recommended for people with impaired kidney function. This is not the case for liraglutide, however, so people with kidney problems can usually take liraglutide if they are unable to take exenatide for this reason.
DPP-4 inhibitors
Dipeptidyl-peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors are not included in the ADA/EASD algorithm as a recommended treatment for Type 2 diabetes — in fact, none of the remaining treatments discussed in this article are. But like other classes of drugs that will follow, DPP-4 inhibitors are approved to treat Type 2 diabetes and may be helpful to some individuals. DPP-4 inhibitors work in a way similar to that of GLP-1 receptor agonists. But while those drugs mimic the naturally occurring hormone GLP-1, DPP-4 inhibitors block the action of an enzyme (known as DPP-4) that breaks down GLP-1 throughout the body. By slowing the effects of this enzyme, DPP-4 inhibitors allow GLP-1 to stay in the body longer (where the hormone increases insulin production and reduces the release of glucose from the liver).
There are currently three DPP-4 inhibitors approved for use in the United States: sitagliptin (Januvia), saxagliptin (Onglyza), and linagliptin (Tradjenta). Advantages of DPP-4 inhibitors include once-daily oral dosing and a low risk of hypoglycemia. Common side effects of DPP-4 inhibitors include headache, upper respiratory tract infection, and sinus infection.
Nateglinide (Starlix) and repaglinide (Prandin) are the two currently available drugs that belong to the meglitinide family. This class of drugs works in a way very similar to that of sulfonylureas, leading to increased insulin production in the pancreas. However, meglitinides are short-acting, taking effect within 15–30 minutes of being ingested and lasting for only 4–6 hours. They should be taken within 30 minutes of beginning a meal and are usually taken three times per day — but should be skipped if a meal is skipped.
Because meglitinides work by increasing the amount of insulin in the body, common side effects include hypoglycemia and weight gain. Taking them as directed with meals, however, lowers the risk of hypoglycemia. Although nateglinide is available as a generic, meglitinides tend to be more expensive than sulfonylureas.
Pramlintide (Symlin) is an injectable drug that is sometimes taken alongside mealtime insulin. It is a synthetic version of amylin, a hormone that is normally released from the pancreas along with insulin and may be lacking in people with Type 2 diabetes. Pramlintide works with insulin to regulate blood glucose levels after meals, effectively increasing the potency of insulin. It is taken by injection immediately before a meal and should never be mixed with insulin or any other drug in the same syringe. Potential benefits of pramlintide include allowing users to take less insulin with each meal, which may in turn lead to some weight loss. A major concern with the drug, however, is the risk of severe hypoglycemia it carries — particularly for people just starting to take it. People who begin to take pramlintide must reduce their mealtime insulin dose by about half, or as instructed by their doctor, to avoid a potentially dangerous drop in blood glucose. While weight loss and improved blood glucose control are not benefits to scoff at, the risk of hypoglycemia and the need for three or more additional injections per day are drawbacks of pramlintide. It is also only available as a brand-name medicine and can therefore be expensive under many insurance plans.

For those of us who have been doing family research
prior to the Internet, we have a great appreciation
for the resources available on the Internet. It seems
there are more and better resources added everyday,
some you pay for and some are free.
Prior to the Internet, we had Genealogy Societies and
fortunately we still have these organizations. Often
for genealogy within a county, one may find branches
of state organizations. An example of this is the
Hamilton County Ohio branch of the Ohio Genealogical
Society. Some are ethnic based, such as The
Scottish Genealogy Society.
This Newsletter had an article on the value of these
organizations in October 2002. I would encourage you
to look back in our files and give it a read. The article is entitled, Genealogical Societies, by Charles Hansen.
Granted these organizations vary in the value they are
able to contribute based on the cooperation and number
of the volunteers, some are better than others. What
can these organizations do for you?
Most have a newsletter about researching in the area.
That is generally worth the price of membership
itself. One of the best newsletters that I receive
quarterly is the Highland Family History Society
Journal. It covers the area of Scotland that I am
researching, and also, articles about the families
in the area. Usually, there is a place to list queries.
It is often possible to make contact with a local
researcher who can assist you. Some of these
researchers are free and some charge a fee.
Most of the more active Genealogy Societies hold
annual seminars,
conferences or workshops. Generally the speakers they
provide are excellent communicators and professional
genealogists. Attend these sessions; they are places to
learn and to interact with other genealogists
working on the same type of brickwalls that you may have
been experiencing. If you go to the home page of this
site, you will find a heading called Events Calendar,
click on it and find out about some of the many varied
activities that occur throughout the year.
Most of these organizations provide cemetery
inscriptions or
Tombstone photographs that you can purchase for a very
price. These were all done by volunteers.
The local genealogy groups also produce books about
the area, its
history and its people. Sometimes these references are
only available from the local group. Sometimes they
are bound, sometimes in a spiral format and sometimes
just xeroxed and stapled . In any case it is
one of a kind material. I have purchased many
reference books from the Hamilton County, Ohio
organization because they have made good vital records
and indexes available. Since I do not live in
Cincinnati, Ohio, it gives me a resource that is not
available anywhere else but the Cincinnati Public
Library. Some of these were purchased from the local
group but lately they have been made available through
a firm called Little Miami Publishing.
Many of these organizations would welcome a printed
copy of your family tree and any narrative of your
family history. They serve as a clearing house making
it available to other persons researching that same
If you have done some original research from the area,
share it with them free of charge. Let them sell it
for a small fee, that is about the only way they can
make money for the organization.
Finally, join these local groups including the ones
overseas and far away, you will be the beneficiary. If
you live close by, volunteer to help. Be willing to go
to the library or the courthouse once a month or so, to
look-up queries for other persons researching in your
area, who may live at greater distances from the resource library. Volunteer to go to local
cemeteries to make inscriptions of the tombstones.
Others will benefit and you will feel good about what
you are doing. The cost of membership of these local groups is very reasonable. I
love the many resources available on the Internet and
use them everyday. The Postal Service brings
us newsletters throughout the month and they are
always read cover-to-cover; some are helpful and some
are not. And of course, don't overlook the many good genealogy
magazines that are available on news stands, book stores
and in libraries.
I was recently reading a booklet I received from Moorshead
Magazines when I re-subscribed to Internet Genealogy.
The booklet is 101 Best Genealogy Research Tips. It
actually has a bonus tip making it 102 tips. The one
that caught my eye was number 8, "Don't Count on
Indexes." The tip was not to rely on some indexes as
they may not cover the whole book, may not index all
the names, or may have errors. Any genealogist who has
done much researching knows there are always errors in
I have done a lot of indexing over the years and I
know reading the old handwriting is hard sometimes. The condition
of the original record or microfilm may have been bad
making it hard to read also. Squeezing a long name
into a small box makes it even worse. My great
grandfather's name was Samuel Potoski Dillingham, and
on the 1870 census he was listed as S.P. Dillingham,
but it was squeezed so small the person indexing the
name did not come up with Dillingham. While it was
obvious to me, I was not the indexer. It is always
easier to find your own family in records.
The one tip about not indexing all the names had an
example of a marriage index where they just indexed the brides and
grooms. It did not index the witnesses or ministers and
these and people may have been related to the bride or
groom. In our library, there are several county
histories where the indexes in them are the people who
did the biographies and those with pictures. They are
not an every name index for the whole book. Some have
been indexed later with every name indexes.
Another tip was that indexes do not always index the
whole record set. In
our library is a set of seventy plus volumes of books
by the D.A.R., which they started in the 1920s called
Washington Pionéers. The D.A.R., went around
interviewing Washington pionéers who were in
Washington before 1891 and still in Washington when
the books were done. Almost all of the first thirteen
volumes contain pedigree charts of the pionéer
families, a narrative on how the family came to
Washington, and a little on their life in Washington,
and then most important, the sources used for the
information in the books. While each volume has a
surname index, there is a surname index to the first
52 volumes also. Now the fun part, there are TWO
volumes 1-4, so which one is in the large index? The
first three volumes on the shelf right next to this
index are NOT in the 52 volume index, volumes 1-3 that
are in the 52 volume index are at the end of the whole
set of books. This group has four volumes and volume 4
of this set is not in the 52 volume index either,
volume 4 of the large group is the first one in the 52
volume index and then they indexed that set through
volume 52. Since only 4 volumes are not in the index
it is fairly easy to check the index in each of the 4
books that are not included in the 52 volume index,
but you néed to remember volume 3 has TWO indexes. The
group from Eastern Washington did half the book and
indexed it and the group from Western Washington did
the other half and indexed their section.
The last tip was about finding errors in on-line
indexes. On-line
indexes are wonderful, but just because the name you
were looking for
is not there does not mean your ancestor is not in the
index. Many indexes allow you to search by given name
or other fields also; maybe by date or place. Some
even allow you to search by soundex of the surname so
maybe you can find your misindexed ancestor, but then
you can always check the material page by page if you
still cannot find your ancestor in the index.
It might help if you can find a key in the volume
that tells how the book was indexed.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) was originally developed to treat Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), but has proven to be effective for treating a wide range of psychiatric disorders. This skill-building therapeutic approach, developed in the 1970s by Marsha Linehan, also successfully treats depression, anxiety disorders, substance abuse, and eating disorders.
DBT is an evidence-based treatment that has been heavily researched through numerous clinical trials. Research has found that, through DBT therapy, DBT groups, and phone coaching, you can learn coping skills that can help you to make a long-term recovery from your psychiatric disorder or addiction so that you can have a "life worth living."
DBT Therapy
There are three main components to Dialectical Behavior Therapy: individual DBT therapy, DBT skills groups, and phone coaching. Your individual DBT therapist will oversee your treatment and take the lead on a DBT team. As part of treatment, and to help prevent you from engaging in self-harmful behaviors, you will be encouraged to have phone coaching sessions with your therapist.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy treatment is organized into several stages and goals (or targets). The first stage of DBT focus on reducing life-threatening behaviors, decreasing behaviors that may cause you to drop out of therapy, minimizing behaviors that affect your quality of life, and learning effective coping skills.
The other three stages of DBT help you learn to experience your emotions more fully, effectively solve ordinary life problems, and move toward a feeling of completeness.
DBT Skills and Groups
DBT skills are the cornerstone of Dialectical Behavior Therapy. These skills, which focus on improving your behavioral, emotional, and cognitive instability, are taught during DBT groups. The following four skills are taught during DBT skills groups:
- Mindfulness: Mindfulness skills help you learn to live in the present and more fully experience your senses. Mindfulness will help you focus and increase attentiveness.
- Interpersonal effectiveness: Interpersonal effectiveness skills teach you to ask for what you need, better cope with interpersonal conflict, and improve your social and family relationships.
- Emotion regulation: Emotion regulation skills can help you to better identify your emotions, reduce emotional reactivity, improve emotional stability, and better manage your emotional health.
- Distress tolerance: Distress tolerance skills will help you improve impulse control and better tolerate stress.

The game doesn't mean anything in the standings to the Brantford Blast, but that doesn't mean they are going to take their foot off the pedal.
"When you go into games like this, you have to be in a mindset to prepare for the playoffs," Blast goaltender Brett Leggat said. "In the playoffs, every team in this league steps up their game. We want to be flying high when it's playoff time."
There is also the factor of who the game is against.
"The game is against the Dundas Real McCoys," Leggat said. "If there is any team we hate losing to, it's them."
The Blast have a lot to draw on for motivation in Friday's contest at the Brantford and District Civic Centre at 7:30 p.m., despite already clinching first place and home ice advantage throughout the Allan Cup Hockey playoffs.
Brantford secured first place on Saturday with a 9-6 victory in Whitby against the Dunlops, improving their record to 17-2-2 on the season.
The Dunlops can no longer catch the Blast's 36 points with only a handful of games remaining this season.
But the Dunlops are still in a race with the Real McCoys for home ice advantage in the first round of the postseason.
And the Blast don't intend to make getting two points easy for their rival Real McCoys this Friday.
Leggat, a Hamilton native, has played in the Allan Cup Hockey League since 2005. He and Anthony Marshall have been a two-headed monster for the Blast in goal this season.
They were also alternating starts with Ben Thomas earlier in the season, but since the roster cutdown, have been on a rotation.
Both goaltenders have identical 7-1-1 records with Leggat leading the ACH with a 3.05 goals-against average and Marshall sitting in third in the league with a 3.85 GAA.
"(Player-coach Mike) Burgoyne makes the call on who is starting and we know by Thursday morning at the latest," Leggat said. "I maybe prepare a little differently if I'm not starting, but not too much. You always want to be prepared in case you get in there."
Leggat has always been prepared to jump at opportunities.
The 32-year-old backstopped Team Canada to a gold medal at the International Ice Hockey Federation Men's World Inline Hockey Championships last year in Germany.
He has also had a cup of coffee in the American Hockey League during a very exciting opportunity that occurred two years ago in February.
"I was just sitting at work and I got a call on my cellphone," Leggat said. "The Connecticut Whale needed an emergency goaltender for a game in Hamilton against the Bulldogs."
Whale backup goalie Cameron Talbot was already injured and starter Chad Johnson – who is playing for the Phoenix Coyotes in the NHL this season – hurt himself in Toronto the night before.
The team had already called up ECHL goaltender Dov Grumet-Morris but needed someone as a backup in case he was injured during the game.
After checking into the source of the call to make sure he wasn't dreaming, Leggat went to Copps Coliseum and got a skate in with the team before signing a tryout agreement.
He warmed the bench for the team's Feb. 11 victory over the Bulldogs.
"It was a pretty neat experience," he said. "I was sitting on the bench with guys like Wade Redden and Jeremy Williams."
Leggat was disqualified from returning to the Allan Cup Hockey league for the remainder of the season because he signed in another league. He knew there was a risk of that happening, but had to take the chance.
"We weren't 100 per cent sure I would be disqualified if I just sat on the bench, so I had to take my chances," Leggat said. "You never know with how those stories might end. I was 30 years old and figured it would be my only chance to be on an AHL team, if even for just a game.
"I mean, Tim Thomas didn't break into the NHL until he was 29 years old. Who knows what could have happened if I had gotten into the game and played well?"
Leggat's AHL story is an example of why he thinks the Blast may add another goaltender before the league's Feb. 10 signing deadline.
"The playoffs can be trying, especially if we win and get to head up north and then to the Allan Cup," he said. "It's nice to have that third goalie around just in case someone gets hurt."
After Friday's game against the Real McCoys, the Blast finish the season the following weekend with away and home games against the Orillia Tundras.
The Tundras are battling the Welland Whalers for the fourth and final playoff spot in the league.
If the Tundras get into the postseason, it sets up the potential for the Blast to play them nine times in a row – two games to end the season followed by a best-of-seven playoff series.

Our work > A global action plan for the conservation of threatened Zelkova species
A global action plan for the conservation of threatened Zelkova species
June 2013 - BGCI, the Natural History Museum Fribourg and the Botanic Garden of the University of Fribourg, Switzerland, have published a global action plan for the conservation of the six extant species of Zelkova, a relict genus that dates back to the Tertiary era (~65-2.5 million years BP). Developed over a period of three years, this collaborative and interdisciplinary project has generated a wide range of research findings that inform integrated action for the protection of the species of Zelkova and the habitats in which they occur, including ex and in situ conservation status assessments, studies of phylogeny and phylogeography, as well as analyses of population genetics and structure.
Found in disjunct regions in Eurasia (Sicily: Zelkova sicula; Crete: Z. abelicea; Caucasus: Z. carpinifolia) and East Asia (China, Japan, Korean Peninsula: Z. serrata; China: Z. schneideriana and Z. sinica), and having outlived changing environmental conditions over an enormous geological time span, this genus serves as a model taxon to study and interpret past and recent biogeographical and evolutionary processes that affect species distribution and differentiation. A better understanding of these linkages will also contribute to informing future biodiversity management approaches in a climate of rapid global change. With very restricted distributional ranges and few remaining populations in the wild, all six Zelkova species occur in distinct habitats and altitudinal zones that in turn shape plant habit, ecological features and reproductive mechanisms.
In and ex situ conservation status assessments
In situ conservation status assessments (Red listing)
Detailed conservation status assessments according to the IUCN Red List categories and criteria have been undertaken to date for the southwest Eurasian species:
Discovered in 1991 in the Iblei mountains in eastern Sicily, Italy, with a second population found in 2009 in relative proximity to the former, Z. sicula is one of the rarest and most endangered trees worldwide. While bovine grazing exerts a significant pressure on this species that occurs in thermophilous, evergreen and semi-deciduous oak wood communities, extreme climatic fluctuations and drought in recent years, have accelerated the process of degradation in both populations. Unlike the other members in the genus which are all diploid, Z. sicula is triploid and exhibits pollen anomalies; this may explain why to date only sterile fruits and vegetative propagation have been observed in this species.
Endemic to Crete, Greece, Z. abelicea represents one of the main biological treasures of this island. Found in supra- and oro-Mediterranean mountain forests, the four ranges – Levka Ori, Psiloritis, Dhikti and Thripti – host some some 40-50 stands of Z. abelicea of considerable diversity between and within the populations. Ovine and caprine grazing, soil erosion, as well as water stress and fire represent major threat factors. The species has been logged since ancient times for its valuable timber.
Zelkova carpinifolia: Near Threatened
Occurring in lowland as well as mountain forests across the Caucasus, including two main population centres in the east (Hyrcania) and the west (Colchis), Z. carpinifolia has the widest distributional range (some 100 populations) of the three Eurasian species. Molecular studies revealed a significant genetic differentiation between the two main groups which is indicative of the many million years gone by since these populations fragmented into their current distribution. By and large, in all regions where the species occurs, overgrazing, expanding mass tourism and related infrastructure development in areas of scenic beauty, are major drivers of change. Although numerous natural reserves and parks have been created in Georgia, Azerbaijan and Iran, containing important forest stands with Z. carpinifolia, the pressure on these habitats is steadily rising.
Z. serrata, Z. schneideriana and Z. sinica
With all three species in the East Asiatic group generally occurring in temperate to subtropical forest communities, Z. serrata exhibits the largest geographical distribution ranging from Japan to the Korean Peninsula and China, while Z. schneideriana and Z. sinica are found only in China. Rapid habitat transformation and logging represent major threats. Detailed conservation status assessments of all three species have not been undertaken to date, but are part of Phase II (2013-2015) of Project Zelkova.
Global Ex situ Survey
In 2010, a worldwide survey was carried out to gauge the status of Zelkova species in living ex situ collections, including a presence-absence analysis, an assessment of the extent and average size of collections, as well as of plant provenance and genetic representativeness.
Worldwide distribution of Zelkova spp. collections and extent of collections in-country
Generally, collections are small, in 90% of the records they either hold one individual or two to 10 trees at most. In addition, the majority of ex situ collections is not well documented. Not only is the origin of the plant material unknown, but often also their taxonomic status and/or cultivation history in the given institution. These collections are therefore inappropriate for scientific study and unsuitable for practical conservation, especially for restoration programmes.
Read BGCI's report 'Global Survey of Ex situ Zelkova Collections' (10 pages)
Phylogeny and phylogeography
Chloroplast and nuclear DNA analyses confirm the fragmented geographic distribution with a southwest Eurasian cluster containing Z. sicula, Z. abelicea and Z. carpinifolia, and an East Asiatic group with Z. serrata, Z. schneideriana and Z. sinica. However, genetic similarities of Z. carpinifolia and Z. schneideriana suggest that close linkages of these species existed during an earlier geological period that later became disconnected as a result of environmental changes. The differentiation into an East Asiatic and southwest Eurasian group is likely to have occurred during the Tertiary's Middle Miocene (18-12 million years BP). This division might have come about as a result of growing aridity in Central Asia that acted as a barrier against reunification.
Schematic phylogeny of the genus Zelkova
Z. abelicea is the genetically most diverse species in the southwest Eurasian group, with each mountain massif where the plant occurs representing a separate genetic unit. Two main groups have been identified in Z. carpinifolia, an eastern (Hyrcanian) and western (Colchis) clade. Genetically impoverished, Z. sicula is likely to be of hybrid origin, with the parents of this taxon suggested to be close to Z. abelicea and Z. carpinifolia ancestral species. Further genetic analyses in the East Asiatic group are needed based on large-scale collection of plant samples from natural populations, to clarify the phylogenetic and phylogeographic position of the species.
The Zelkova global action plan concludes with a number of specific recommendations for priority action pertaining to further survey work, in and ex situ conservation, regional and international research partnerships and networking, and enhanced public outreach.
Relict species from ancient times not only function as storehouses of information of the Earth's transformation over millions of years but also deliver a diverse range of ecosystem services. Although ultimately a matter of societal choice, their conservation may therefore present a vital element in the development of future ecosystem management approaches, especially in a time of unprecedented, rapid global change.

Interview With ScienceOnline Panelist Suzanne Kennedy: MO BIO Blogger
Posted By Mary Canady On October 11, 2012 @ 6:30 am In Featured,SDBN Blog | No Comments
Leading up to our first ScienceOnlineSoCal event October 22nd [2], we're featuring posts about and from our panelists. I had the chance to speak to Suzanne Kennedy (@suzyscientist [3]) about her experience writing on the MO BIO blog, The Culture Dish [4].
Besides being MO BIO [5]'s R&D Director, Suzanne is a veteran blogger, having also written for Bitesize Bio since '07 [6]. The MO BIO blog was started in September '09 and they post about twice a month. The topics include technical tips, news, events, interviews, and product information. The company, founded in 1993 and located in Carlsbad, specializes in products for DNA/RNA extraction and purification. Suzanne said that they've found blog posts with technical tips are the most popular. In posts where products are featured, MO BIO does a great job of adding value by including application information as well.
I asked Suzanne about the benefits of the blog to MO BIO, and at this point she started talking so fast I couldn't keep up with my notes. She said they get a lot of positive feedback from customers about the blog. In addition, she thinks they get more interactions with customers who might have been intimidated to contact her before. She said that the blog 'opens a door' of communication between the scientists who help develop the products and the researchers who use them. These scientist-scientist connections are mutually beneficial as customers may be able to help shape products by expressing their needs or by beta testing early versions of products.
Suzanne also said that scientists also look to her for help on topics outside of the scope of MO BIO's products, if she posts tips in a certain area. To me, this fact is a sign that researchers are more hungry for help online than ever, and ScienceOnline connections are more becoming more important. Join us October 22nd [2] to help us build these bridges!

Palm Pre Launch Dates and Emulation
Rather than creating a new news article every five minutes for the last few days we thought it would be a good idea to consolidate what we have in one post.
Release Date
While we can't be sure, its one of two release windows: May 17th or June 6th or 7th. We now expect the June date, which also happens to be the day before the big Apple announcement.
In the Wild
That's right, the Pre is in fact in the wild.
There have been numerous spottings but one of the best is this in flight shot (left). We must admit we're a little jealous as this looks to be the real deal, and according to those in the know it's anticipated that these handsets are running the fixed full release ROMS.
PalmOs Support
Absolutely, palm have released several tit bits showing full PalmOS (the older one) running emulated on both the handset and the SDK emulation.

Quark has launched a new licensing program or K-12 schools. The program provides volume discounts for purchases of QuarkXPress 8, Quark's flagship page layout and publishing tool.
According to Quark, schools around the world are adopting QuarkXPress in their curricula to help teach layout and design, build publishing skills, and enhance communications.
"I have been overwhelmed by my students'--and their parents'--enthusiasm for the QuarkXPress 8 classes I've started teaching this year," said Lynne Brusco Moore, newspaper adviser at Nativity School in Hollywood, FL, in a prepared statement. Nativity is a Catholic elementary school serving about 875 students in preK through grade 8. "Students took to the program immediately and are creating amazing posters and flyers for class and school-wide activities, as well as advertisements, their own newspapers, and our school newspaper. It's important for me to give my students every tool possible to communicate, and to be able to combine content and design effectively with QuarkXPress is an especially useful skill as they move on to high school, college, and beyond."
"I can honestly say that I would not have been able to enjoy the success I have had in the classroom without QuarkXPress," said Irving Osterer, department head of fine arts, library, and communications technology at Merivale High School in Ottawa, Ontario, also in a prepared statement. "We are transitioning to QuarkXPress 8 now and produce everything you can imagine, from playing cards and large-format posters to amazing artwork with the Bezier pen tool. My students' work speaks volumes about how useful QuarkXPress is."
Through the new volume licensing program, QuarkXPress 8 has been drastically reduced from previous pricing, even educational pricing. As Quark described it, "For the regular educational price for 15 seats, your school gets 250 seats of QuarkXPress." That's 250 seats for about $1,500. A 500-seat license of QuarkXPress 8 runs about $2,500.
Complete details of the K-12 volume licensing program can be found here.

Godzilla: Save the EarthComments10
Godzilla: Save the Earth (ゴジラ 怪獣大乱闘 地球最終決戦?, Gojira Kaijū Dairantō: Chikyū Saishū Kessen, lit. Godzilla Monster Melee: Earth Final Battle) is a 2004 fighting game developed by Pipeworks and published by Atari, released for the PlayStation 2 and Xbox.
After failing to invade the Earth in 2002, the Vortaak return to Earth two years later with all of the monsters under their control, with their ultimate weapon, SpaceGodzilla. The player assumes the role of a monster who has broken free of the control, regardless of what monster is picked. If the player completes the game on hard mode with Godzilla 2000, a cutscene will be shown where Godzilla creates a black hole by blowing off SpaceGodzilla's shoulder crystals, which sucks him in, thus saving the world.
Most of these monsters appear in the sequel, Godzilla: Unleashed.
These can be changed from day to night.
Statue Level was a level briefly described in an interview and seen in concept art that would have involved fighting Destoroyah while trying to activate a statue of Jet Jaguar.
Rodan Railer was a railer seen only in concept art similar to the Godzilla 2000 and M.O.G.U.E.R.A. ones, set in a desert.
Las Vegas is seen in concept art for the game. Toho Kingdom has this screenshot and it is unknown if it is the only concept art of Vegas. The art shows Godzilla 1990's holding the Hard Rock Hotel's guitar, prepared to use it against Mecha-King Ghidorah.
An Ice Level set in Antarctica is shown in two pieces of concept art, one of Titanosaurus and other monsters battling it out. The second includes a description of gameplay in the level. It is a picture of Godzilla 2000 falling into an ice flow with Kiryu watching. It reads "Monsters can fall through ice flow hazards. They will re-emerge in the ocean section of the arena." It is unknown why such an interesting level was cut.
Miscellaneous Scrapped Elements
Many of the game's elements were scrapped. Many monsters were cut and the whole story, shown above, was cut, even though most of the time spent on the game was on the story mode. Simon Strange was a man who worked on the game, and he stated that it wasn't the "feel good" project that Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee was. Las Vegas, a city, was cut, the Rodan railer was cut; the list goes on. There was originally going to be a robust tokens system, but it was eventually cut. All the cut-scenes were deleted along with the story, and the special effects for Anguirus' roar were changed. The basic idea is that many of the game's ideas were cut due to time constraints and licensing trouble.

Aretha Franklin Performs At The Fox Theatre
Updated: July 20, 2012 6:08AM
Aretha Franklin wants to be shown a little more R-E-S-P-E-C-T when judges for "American Idol" or "The Voice" are considered.
"I would love to be a judge on one of those shows," Franklin said last week from her tour bus en route to New York.
"I don't understand why singers like myself, Gladys [Knight], Natalie [Cole] and Patti [LaBelle] can't be judges. We never get a call. I don't understand it. I watch those shows from time to time. Some of the talent is very good. Some of it is fun. And some of it is really wild," she said.
Meanwhile, the Queen of Soul is headed to Chicago: She will perform in the 17th Annual N'DIGO "Legend de Soul" event with the Impressionions at 6 p.m. June 30 at the Arie Crown Theatre.

characteristics and practices of distinct jurisdictions. The source of variation is not only state law but also local authority. Responsibility for death investigations rests at the county level for over 2,000 counties.
Remarkably, for well over a century, there has been continuous concern about the lack of standardization in death investigations and about high rates of errors, whether real or perceived. Concern began to be expressed by progressive reformers over the last decades of the 19th century. Even the National Academy of Sciences weighed in—75 years ago. In 1928, the National Research Council's Committee on Medical Legal Problems issued its report, The Coroner and the Medical Examiner (1928). The committee was made up of titans of the American legal and medical establishment of that era, including Roscoe Pound, dean of Harvard Law School, and John Henry Wigmore, dean of Northwestern Law School.
The committee stated forcefully, in blunter terms than used today, that the coroner's office is an anachronistic institution, predating the Magna Carta. The office "has conclusively demonstrated its incapacity to perform the functions customarily required of it." The committee recommended that the office of coroner be abolished and be replaced by a well-staffed office of a medical examiner, headed by a pathologist. A key goal of the committee's recommendations was the professionalization of death investigation, with medicine as its center. That vision relied heavily on the training and credentialing capacities of what was becoming modern medicine.
That effort has continues over the ensuing decades. The subspecialty of forensic pathology was recognized in 1959. The National Association of Medical Examiners (NAME) was established in 1966, and the country saw a gradual conversion of offices, from coroners to medical examiners, encompassing half the population.
The goal of this workshop is to obtain a progress report on the transformation to a more professional systemnamely, whether the system exploits the full range of tools from medicine and other scientific disciplines, including the development of standardized protocols and access to high specialty technical services and laboratories, to reduce errors. The workshop also addresses this
