Failure to thrive
Failure to thrive
Failure to thrive refers to children whose current weight or rate of weight gain is significantly lower than that of other children of similar age and gender.
Alternative Names
Growth failure; FTT; Feeding disorder; Poor feeding
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
It is important to determine whether failure to thrive results from medical problems or factors in the environment, such as abuse or neglect.
There are many medical causes of failure to thrive. These include:
- Chromosome problems such as Down syndrome and Turner syndrome
- Organ problems
- Thyroid hormone deficiency, growth hormone deficiency, or other hormone deficiencies
- Damage to the brain or central nervous system, which may cause feeding difficulties in an infant
- Heart or lung problems, which can affect how nutrients move through the body
- Anemia or other blood disorders
- Gastrointestinal problems that make it hard to absorbe nurtients or cause the body to have a lack of digestive enzymes
- Long-term gastroenteritis and gastroesophageal reflux (usually temporary)
- Cerebral palsy
- Long-term (chronic) infections
- Metabolic disorders
- Complications of pregnancy and low birth weight
Other factors that may lead to failure to thrive:
- Emotional deprivation as a result of parental withdrawal, rejection, or hostility
- Poverty
- Problems with child-caregiver relationship
- Parents do not understand the appropriate diet needs for their the child
- Exposure to infections, parasites, or toxins
- Poor eating habits, such as eating in front of the television and not having formal meal times
Many times the cause cannot be determined.
Children that fail to thrive seem to be much smaller or shorter than other children the same age. Teenagers may not appear to have the usual changes that occur at puberty. However, it's important to remember that the way children grow and develop varies quite a bit. See: Normal growth and development
Symptoms of failure to thrive include:
- Height, weight, and head circumference do not match standard growth charts.
- Weight is lower than 3rd percentile (as outlined in standard growth charts) or 20% below the ideal weight for their height.
- Growth may have slowed or stopped after a previously established growth curve.
In general, the child's rate of change in weight and height may be more important than the actual growth measurements.
Children who fail to thrive may have the following delayed or slow to develop:
- Physical skills such as rolling over, sitting, standing and walking
- Mental and social skills
- Secondary sexual characteristics (delayed in adolescents)
Babies who fail to gain weight or develop often have a lack of interest in feeding or a problem receiving the proper amount of nutrition. This is called "poor feeding."
Other symptoms that may be seen in a child that fails to thrive include:
- Constipation
- Excessive crying
- Excessive sleepiness (lethargy)
- Irritability
Signs and tests
The doctor will perform a physical exam and check the child's height, weight, and body shape. You will be asked questions about the child's medical and family history.
A special test called the Denver Developmental Screening Test will be used to show any delays in development. A growth chart outlining all types of growth since birth is created.
The following tests may be done:
- Complete blood count (CBC)
- Electrolyte balance
- Hemoglobin electrophoresis to check for conditions such as sickle cell disease
- Hormone studies, including thyroid function tests
- X-rays to determine bone age
- Urinalysis
Treatment depends on the cause of the delayed growth and development. Delayed growth due to nutritional factors can be helped by showing the parents how to provide a well-balanced diet.
Do not give your child dietary supplements such as Boost or Ensure without talking to your health care provider first.
Other treatment depends on the severity of the condition. The following may be recommended:
- Increase the number of calories and amount of fluid the infant receives
- Correct any vitamin or mineral deficiencies
- Identify and treat any other medical conditions
The child may need to stay in the hospital for a little while.
Treatment may also involve improving the family relationships and living conditions. Sometimes, the parent's attitudes and behavior may contribute to a child's failure to thrive.
Expectations (prognosis)
Normal growth and development may be affected if a child fails to thrive for a long time.
Normal growth and development may continue if the child has failed to thrive for a short time, and the cause is determined and treated.
Permanent mental, emotional, or physical delays can occur.
Calling your health care provider
Call for an appointment with your health care provider if your child does not seem to be developing normally.
Regular check-ups can help detect failure to thrive in children.

5 Ways to Deal When Your Ex Sits at the Next Desk
By BounceBack
By Morgan Vines, BounceBack.com Editorial Staff
Ask anyone and they'll probably tell you that it's never a good idea to date a coworker. The intimate details of how you like to prance around in your girl's thong or want your man to spank you can get gushed around the water cooler. And that's if you're lucky enough to make it work.
Then there's the inevitable disaster of a messy breakup. It tends to turn adults into children who will stoop low enough to get revenge that your career could end up on the latest endangered species list.
But who wants to worry about all that when the cute guy you bump into at the copy machine hits you up for drinks after work? And where else are you supposed to meet women when you spend eight to twelve hours a day in the office?
So undoubtedly, at one point or another, you will end up here…sharing a stapler with your ex. But it doesn't have to get as unbearable as struggling through that stack of TP reports with a "weekend came a little early" hangover.
If it's not meant to end in a choreographed dance down the aisle, try these 5 tips to make it through the nine to five grind:
1. Dive head first into payroll
The quickest way to ensure recovery from a relationship breakup is to keep your mind busy doing something else. Not only will it keep your thoughts off your ex, but it will make the time that you have to be in the same room with her pass by faster. You never know, your breakup may lead to your promotion. Throwing in extra hours and going over the top with a killer presentation will only make you look good. And if your romance shed some sticky details around the conference room, you might need that boost in your performance to save your professional reputation.
2. Don't badmouth your ex around the office
Save it for your happy hour cohorts. This unprofessional gossip will only make you look bad and make an awkward situation more uncomfortable. Don't discuss the relationship at all, even if you trust your co-workers. It's none of their business and people will always tell "just one person". You don't want rumors blown out of proportion and spread to your boss so that she thinks you're too immature to handle that project you've been slaving over for the past six months.
3. Take a few days off
After any relationship breakup it's crucial to get away for a few days to sort out your feelings and reconnect with what you really want as an individual. When you're forced to see that person every day, it's even more important to take some time off and remove yourself from the situation. You may be worried about looking weak and having your ex think that you're too hurt to bear to face him. In reality, you're acting as the adult by avoiding a potentially volatile situation.
4. Be patient with yourself

A Jamaica resident was charged last week in connection with a Jan. 17 altercation that left a prominent Manhattan journalist hospitalized with head injuries.
Leighton Jennings, 25, of 166th Street was charged with second-degree assault on Jan. 28 for allegedly throwing a punch that caused Randy Gener, 46, to strike his head on the sidewalk on Seventh Avenue in midtown.
Gener was taken to St. Luke's Roosevelt Hospital where he reportedly underwent brain surgery, and where he still remains.
Gener is a writer, editor and award-winning critic who is well-known in Manhattan's theater circles. He is openly gay and very active on LGBT issues, as well as the city's Filipino community.
Police in their initial reports said little more than that the man who struck Gener fled the scene, along with his description and that of his vehicle.
Given Gener's prominence in the LGBT community, police at first were investigating the possibility that it might have been a bias crime. The Wall Street Journal reported that his cell phone, wallet and gold jewelry had not been taken.
Police subsequently ruled out bias as a motive, with the Daily News quoting NYPD Commissioner William Bratton as saying the incident appears to have been "a tragic street altercation."
The paper said Jennings was arraigned in Manhattan and is free on his own recognizance.
Published accounts are saying that the NYPD now is investigating the possibility that Gener and Jennings struck each other after a chance bumping incident involving the journalist and Jennings' girlfriend.
One account has Jennings exiting his car as the bumping evolved into a heated exchange, and another has Jennings being part of a group that was involved in the jostling.
Some published accounts say police are looking into whether Jennings threw his punch after Gener reportedly kicked his girlfriend in the chest.
Gener's friends are raising money for his medical expenses at YouCaring.com.

Tomb Raider is probably one of the most well known franchise due to the main protagonist Lara Craft. The series has released a certain amount of games the past few years. Believe or not when I first heard of the series, I thought it was just a movie franchise. Sometime within the past few years, I found out it was the a video game franchise. On top of that, I never played a single Tomb Raider game ever. I'm getting interested in the series but I'm still not sure where to start playing Tomb Raider.
Should I start from the first era, the second era or just wait for the reboot to come out sometime next year?

I have an recipe for a Scottish Export (OG = 1.047) and I am thinking of making a Wee Heavy. The Export recipe has been tweaked over time to its current incarnation and placed in a contest last year: 8.5 lbs 2-row Pale malt 1 lb Aromatic Malt 8 oz Crystal 60 4 oz Special B Malt 1.5 oz Roasted Barley .25 oz Pacific Gem 13.6% AA, full boil .25 oz Pacific Gem 13.6% AA, 20 minutes .5 oz East Kent Goldings 4.8% AA, 20 minutes I was wondering if I wanted to make this into a Wee Heavy near the low end of the scale, OG = 1.075 or 60% higher than my Export recipe, would it be appropriate to just add an extra 60% of all of the ingredients (keeping their same relative percentage of the recipe) or should certain ingredients not be raised as much (and if not, why)?
There is a podcast on Scottish Ales by Jamil at : http://www.thebrewingnetwork.com/jamil.php He uses a base recipe with specialty grains and makes everything from a 60 shilling to wee heavy with the same amount of specialty grains and only increases the 2 row to increase the gravity.
Thanks for the link. I will definitely listen later and post my thoughts. Funny thing I saw on his site was the May 7 podcast on Specialty Beers and a Black Forest Stout. I made a chocolate cherry stout I called Black Forest Stout about 6 years ago. Sweet stout with 1 pound of Giardelli's cocoa powder and 15 pounds of cherries. It ended up with a pink head that freaked people out, but it tasted awesome. I was actually thinking of recreating it for a competition coming up and now everyone will think I'm copying him. Any other advice on the Wee Heavy?
I listened to the podcast and Jamil of course makes several good points. He has me convinced to not add the peated malt back in. In his recipe he has a surprisingly low 60% of the grain bill coming from pale malt for Scottish 60- at 1.034. If I increase the pale malt of his recipe to get the OG to 1.075, then the pale malt would be at 81.4% of the bill, virtually identical to the 82.2% in my 80- recipe, so I guess I should ramp all of mine up in proportion to maintain that. He also had an interesting comment on the use of Pale Chocolate malt to provide a bit of roastiness. I use the standard roasted barley, but one of the comments I got on my 80- at the last competition was that it finished a bit too crispy. I wonder if substituting pale chocolate for roasted barley would help that. I have never used it in any recipe. Does anyone have experience with it and specifically, using it as a substitute for roasted barley and its effect on a dry finish?
When they said "crispy" did they mean too roasty/astringent from grain or dry? I have yet to drink a finished product with the pale chocolate (I have 3 Scottish 60/- in various stages of fermentation/conditioning) but just nibbling the grain I can tell you there is a huge differnce between it and roast barley. The pale chocolate tastes like medium done toast.
Well, I did look at the other score sheet and it said malty with carmel and toffee flavors and a dry finish. What would cause the dry finish? For the record, I mashed at 156F and use WLP002 since it is even less attenuative than WLP028. I attempted to ferment at 65F but was closer to 68F due to summer weather. OG was only 1.045 for this particular batch and FG was 1.013. IBUs were 24 (maybe a bit high but well within the 15-30 for style), and although they said good carbonation, I thought it was perhaps a bit high for the style.

He also said he did not watch most of the Texans' 27-21 loss to the Arizona Cardinals last Sunday. The Texans have lost seven games in a row. "I really don't remember a whole lot.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

WORLD - another zany leader down... first Bashi, then Qaddhafi... now
Kim..... the world needs new crazy leaders for pure entertainment value.
RUSSIA/EAST ASIA - Russia needs to be watched following the death of Kim
Jong-Il. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said that he expects that
the friendly ties between Russia and North Korea to continue. Also, Russia
made it a point to say today that the Russian troops of the Eastern
Military District were on usual combat duty, and not escalated height of
alert. But this isn't about threats - well, not entirely-, but the
opportunity Russia now has. Russia is focused mainly on one thing -
getting gas supplies to South Korea. We have heard over recent months that
Russia had its lines built the the North Korean border and were ready to
act. This could seriously strengthen the relationship between South Korea
and Russia - in spite of Japan and China wanting those supplies.
KREMLIN POLITICS - Russian president's chief of staff, Sergei Naryushkin,
was named parliament speaker post. From what sources have told us over the
weekend, there was a big power struggle between two of the main forces
still in the Kremlin-Surkov and Sechin. Surkov has looooooong wanted Boris
Gryzlov out of position. This is not just about Surkov's power, but Surkov
is trying to manage the situation between Russia's financial crisis and
Kudrin. Surkov wants Kudrin in the premiership. Kudrin's placement would
give confidence to investors and business in the country. Surkov had
wanted to put Medvedev into the Duma spot, however, the nationalists &
Sechin's groups would not have it. It isn't about just addressing Sechin
anymore, but now the nationalists have to be factored in. The Communists
and Lib Dems would have never worked with Medvedev. So Naryushkin was
chosen. For him, it is a step down, but in reality, he was one of the only
who could handle this new and complex Duma. He is KGB, but he also is very
level-headed. So he is meant to keep all sides happy. He is also a superb
organizer, so he will hopefully keep the peace in Duma between the
different parties. But this still leaves the problem of the premiership.

to have little relation to Gibbs's work on heterogeneous equilibrium. As he wrote ten years later, ''I can remember the time when I thought that people made a good deal of unnecessary fuss over the phase rule. It seemed to me an interesting mathematical relation but nothing more."19
After returning to the United States, however, Bancroft's research interests and his opinion of the phase rule gradually changed. In a series of papers published while he was at Harvard, Bancroft studied solubility relations in ternary systems, those, for example, composed of two non-miscible liquids and a salt dissolved in both, or of two non-miscible liquids and a liquid miscible in both. Although notable for introducing the word "solute," these papers were, in other respects, dismal failures.20 Convinced that such heterogeneous physical equilibria could be treated by expressions similar to those derived from the law of mass action for homogeneous chemical equilibria, Bancroft had fit his data to equations with up to four arbitrary constants. After several harsh rebukes, Bancroft abandoned his effort to give such systems precise, quantitative treatment and instead began to view them in the context of Gibbs's phase rule.
Shortly after moving to Cornell, this interest found expression in his monograph, The Phase Rule, an extended study not so much of the phase rule itself as of its uses in the classification and analysis of various classes of heterogeneous equilibria. Published in 1897, Bancroft's book was among the earliest works to offer an extended treatment of these applications of the phase rule and served an important role in introducing American chemists to the significance of the work of their countryman, Gibbs. Building upon this work, Bancroft continued to explore the rule and its applications in articles and reviews, making himself the leading American authority on heterogeneous equilibria. Together with his students, notably Charles A. Soch, E. S.

I really like the Dirty toothy tabs! If you're switching from regular toothpaste to toothy tabs, this is a great starter because they're spearmint flavored like regular toothpaste. These don't have flouride in them but are baking soda based. No tube of toothpaste has ever made my teeth feel as clean as toothy tabs do! Super squeaky clean and a touch whiter. I only knocked a lippie off because I feel like the flavor kind of fades after a while and all you're left with is a baking soda tablet, but that's the only beef I have. Definitely repurchasing!
I bought these the other day after seeing them on the Lush website i was extremely curious. I tried them today for the first time and i am quitw impressed. My teeth feel amazingly clean and they foam up so well (much more than regular toothpaste) tastewise i could feel the mintyness and overall it wasn't too bad. I'm surprised at all the bad reviews to be honest.
I have the Toothy Tabs in Dirty and Chou Chou... I Love You.
I have to say I like them better than regular toothpaste! lol
Dirty does a better job at whitening, I've noticed, though Chou Chou has a nicer scent, imo.
(Chou Chou is rose/floral scented, very unusually pleasant for toothpaste!)
Dirty is the closest taste/smell to normal "minty" toothpaste and it does give you that "refreshed" feeling afterwards. Though, the baking soda is a little strong in this one so if your mouth is sensitive like mine it gives you a funny tingly feeling afterwards.
It's not unpleasant though. Not at all :)
5/5 Lippies!
I received a few of these as a sample my first time at a LUSH shop. I found them hard to chew and didn't really care for the taste. If they were softer, it would be a great product.
I bought these as I agree with Lushs point that the aluminium tubes are creating a lot of waste, etc. I wanted to try them out, and was hoping that they would be great so that I could continue to use them. I bought Dirty because it was the most normal sounding..I mean, no offence to Lush but I don't want freaking ginger wasabi flavoured toothpaste.
Anyway, upon trying, I found them hard to crush up between my front teeth (and if I tried to use my back teeth in got stuck in them). Not only that, but it was not minty enough, and my teeth did not feel as clean as I wanted them to be.
Although I tried to like them, I'm really not too fond.
I'll stick to colgate from now on, and just use these between morning/night brushes or when on a flight.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Peppermint taste, it's nice, and it foams very well. You can cut a tab in half and it still does its job. My teeth do feel wonderfully clean after! However, I only bought it to try and I still prefer tube toothpaste, haha. This would be good if you want to go travel instead of lugging toothpaste with you. One of the pros about this product is that it is way cleaner and doesn't make a mess.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Taste like peppermint. It foams up a lot almost too much so ice been thinking about only using half. You only get 40 pills per box tho so if you use it twice a day it's gonna get expensive. I save mine for when I'm traveling.
I've tried a few tooty tabs now but keep coming back to Dirty. This smells, tastes and feels the closest to toothpast of all the toothtabs.
It's great for travelling but I have concerns over the long term usage and effect on my teeth so I keep some in my purse for days I'm caught out, and use it when travelling.
Just be careful you don't get the box wet-it goes soggy and so do your toothytabs!
iv tried dirty and chou chou i love you and the dirty one was better but made my mouth feel funny and the ccily tasted like soap reallly reallly bad. wouldnt buy them again sadly.
update: okay im now giving it a 1 lippy mark because these arejust so gross!!
Like the taste.
Price is reasonable for a toothpaste !
The only thing is the box if left in damp areas or long time after buying goes quiet rapidly soft and berky ! when it is better when the tabs stays crunchy . enjoyed putting them in a small tin and using them in my travels and offering them to my friends as small funny gift !

This lamp is very beautiful, especially when lit. It's not quite as green as the picture lets on, but never the less very satisfied. It is big enough to hang over a dinning room table, which is where I have mine. It brings the room together.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.The lights are beautiful. They are more blue than the picture represents, but with the yellow mosaic look it haves, it makes being in my green dining room work great. I love these pendant lights. One came broken in the box, but Rugsusa has taken care of the exchange with no problems. And the shipping does take the 7-10 days to leave the warehouse, but they are worth the wait.

You two crack me up.
On subject, the WSJ today lobbies for cutting capital gains taxes to zero. Which is really only the starting point for the Journal. If it could do so without generating catcalls, the WSJ would flip the tax rates on their heads, so that the top 2% paid no taxes whatsoever and that the poor shouldered a heavy burden. This is only logical, after all, as the top 2% efficiently allocate capital while the poor squander their assets on malt liquor, crack, and streetwalkers. So change the tax code to permit the top 2% to allocate more capital, and the poor to allocate less capital.
I await that editorial.

I appreciate your note, Mike -- and you're right, United Way's success had much to do with their ability to enact a coordinated focus. As powerful as advocacy can be in a for-profit organization, it is doubly powerful where social responsibility and philanthropic initiatives are concerned. Thanks for writing.
Best regards,
Love the article. What can I say but that you just "get" it. As companies see beyound just the direct response models for building and sustaining business, I'm a huge believer that the subject matter expert is key.

While the details may not be as seedy or full of political intrigue as those of the Profumo scandal in the early Sixties, Kimberly Fortier's now notorious extramarital affair with former British cabinet minister David Blunkett has all the makings of a prime-time soap.
The story, which broke during the August holiday and has fed the British tabloids for months, initially centered on the socially and professionally ambitious Fortier, publisher of the conservative political magazine, The Spectator, and wife of British Vogue publishing director Stephen Quinn, and her lover Blunkett, the former home secretary with whom she had been having an affair for three years. Blunkett resigned in tears last week.
Over the past four months, it has widened to include the Quinns' son William, whose paternity is now in question; that of Fortier's unborn child, which is due in February; and a Filipino nanny, whose visa request was unfairly fast-tracked by Blunkett's office — the reason he stepped down. The case is now commonly referred to as Nannygate.
To add to all the drama, another of Fortier's former lovers came forward last week and admitted to having an affair with her while she was carrying on with Blunkett.
Simon Hoggart, a Guardian journalist and quiz-show host on BBC Radio 4, said he had "a sexual relationship" with Fortier that started before her marriage to Quinn, but which became "very infrequent indeed" afterwards. However, Hoggart, who is married with two children, said there is no possibility that he could be the father of her son William. Even more dramatic are rumblings in the press of a third lover who has yet to come forward with his story.
Earlier this month, Fortier spent three weeks in a private London hospital for stress-related complications to her pregnancy. Throughout the scandal, her husband has stood staunchly by her.
"I love her deeply, and it is returned," Quinn told The Sunday Times of London earlier this month. He is also known to be a model father to William. "I am not obsessed with the biological details. I think that fatherhood is all about being there."

Recent versions of Mathematica introduced an innovative way to interact with data. Computable data functions, such as CountryData and WeatherData, provide programmatic access to curated data in a form ready for computation.
The idea of computable data has been so useful in Mathematica at large that we've been using it internally as well. We've packaged some of our internal data as in-house computable data functions, so that all of our colleagues can bring a quantitative edge to their work.
I work on one such function: WebsiteData. We host several popular websites at Wolfram Research, so we collect a large volume of web server log data. WebsiteData provides access to our corpus of logs, which we can use to study how visitors interact with our websites.
Here's an example of WebsiteData in action. Let's find the most popular demonstration from the Wolfram Demonstrations Project this past month:
Whenever a visitor surfs to one of our web pages, our webservers (like all webservers) record the page requested, the time of the request, the URL of the page that had linked to our webpage (we call that the referrer), and the value of the visiter's browser cookie and other incidentals. We've built up a rich interface in WebsiteData to provide statistics about these fundamental events aggregated in a variety of ways.

A couple of days ago I read about an unusual "swarm" of earthquakes at Yellowstone National Park. After reading up on this topic a bit (and determining that my home state of Illinois would not be obliterated immediately by a supervolcano outburst), I decided to make an animation about it in Mathematica. First I searched for "yellowstone map sdts" on Google and downloaded this geological map of Yellowstone from the U.S. Geological Survey website. After uncompressing the zip file, I simply pointed Import to the top directory containing the SDTS files:
The resulting graphic contains a lot of distracting detail, so I decided to extract just the polygons and give them a muted gray background color. What remains are the outline polygons for each geological layer as observed by the USGS. Also, I set the image size to 1280×720, which makes it suitable for a 720p high-definition video stream:

Calculus II is one of my favorite classes to teach, and the course I've probably taught more than any other. One reason for its special place in my heart is that it begins on the first day of class with a straightforward, easily stated, yet mathematically rich question: what is the area of a curved region? Triangles and rectangles—figures with straight sides—have simple area formulas whose derivation is clear. More complicated polygons can be carved up into pieces that are triangles and rectangles. But how does one go about finding the area of a blob?
After simplifying the blob to be a rectangle whose top side has been replaced with a curve, the stage is set for one of the classic constructions in calculus. The area of our simplified blob, reinterpreted as the area under the graph of a function is approximated using a series of rectangles. The approximation is obtained by partitioning the x-axis, thus slicing the region into narrow strips, then approximating each strip with a rectangle and summing all the resulting approximations to produce a Riemann sum. Taking a limit of this process by using more and narrower rectangles produces the Riemann integral that forms the centerpiece of Calculus II. Several Demonstrations from the Wolfram Demonstrations Project, including "Riemann Sums" by Ed Pegg Jr, "Common Methods of Estimating the Area under a Curve" by Scott Liao, and "Riemann Sums: A Simple Illustration" by Phil Ramsden show that this construction and images like the one below from "Riemann Sums" are part of the iconography of calculus.

The New York Times recently published an "Op-Chart" by Tommy McCall on its Opinion page showing what your returns would have been had you started with $10,000 in 1929 and invested it in the stock market, but only during the administrations of either Democratic or Republican presidents. His calculations showed that if you had invested only during Republican administrations you would now have $11,733 while if you had invested only during Democratic administrations you would now have $300,671. Twenty-five times as much!
That's a pretty dramatic difference, but does it stand up to a closer look? Is it even mathematically plausible that you could have essentially no return on your investment at all over nearly 80 years, just by choosing to invest only during Republican administrations?
To answer these questions, I of course turned to Mathematica.
And the answer is that yes, it is mathematically plausible, using the assumptions made by McCall. My analysis using historical Dow Jones Industrial Average data available in Mathematica's FinancialData function roughly matches the figures in the Times, which used Standard & Poor's data. (I used the Dow because it's more convenient, not because I think it's a better measure.)
But the fact that they are correct doesn't mean the figures are even remotely meaningful. Here are some problems with the New York Times' Op-Chart:

The 2008 United States presidential election is arguably the most interesting U.S. presidential election in my lifetime.
Already, millions of Americans have registered to vote for the first time in their lives.
Regardless of the outcome, America is going to elect either its first black president or its first female vice president.
America will elect a sitting U.S. senator to the highest office in the land—which, until now, has only occurred twice in U.S. history (Warren Harding and John F. Kennedy were U.S. senators).
Both presidential candidates were born outside of the continental United States.
If elected, John McCain will be the oldest sitting U.S. president upon ascension to the presidency.
Never before in U.S. history has there been such a large disparity in age between the two presidential candidates, either.
It's also the first election you can analyze using Mathematica 6.

On June 14, 1777, the Continental Congress resolved that the flag of the United States would have 13 alternating red and white stripes, with the states represented as white stars on a blue field. The CountryData data paclet has information about this and many other flags, as can be seen in the "Country Flags and Descriptions" Demonstration.
If you'd like to test your knowledge of national flags, there is also a "Country Flag Quiz" Demonstration that you may download for free. Both of these Wolfram Demonstrations show off the power of the CountryData paclet. For example, Mathematica can analyze all those flag descriptions.

An email went out on a mailing list here at Wolfram looking for someone interested in learning about doing 3D printing. I'd heard about these so-called "Santa Claus machines," but had never seen one in action. They're really quite interesting. You tell Santa what you want, and out it comes–a shiny new toy!
Now it's not quite that simple, but you get the idea. The models that these printers create can't be too delicate, or they'll break. The kind of printer that I'm now most familiar with builds the model from the bottom up, constructing the object one layer at a time from plaster and water. A thin layer of plaster is deposited, then a binding agent sprays from basically an oversized ink-jet printer to harden the areas that form the object. Once the printer is done, you have to dust off the object and infuse it with a hardener so it's less fragile.
But back to the story. Ed Pegg Jr–associate editor for MathWorld–was writing an article about 3D printing and wanted to know more about the process. The idea was to print a physical 3D model of the spikey, our company logo, at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, which is just a few blocks from our offices. (You can read about the development of the spikey here.)
This was the version we were working with:
But how would we turn that image into something we could actually hold in our hands?

Well, Mathematica 6 has only been out a week, and I'm happy to announce that we've already released an update! What's better, you probably already have it if you use Mathematica 6!
How is that possible?
After exploring the What's New website, you might have noticed the page for Load-on-Demand Curated Data, which says our "efficient load-on-demand mechanism makes hundreds of gigabytes of carefully curated and continually updated data immediately available inside Mathematica for use in computations."
We've done a lot of work to aggregate data in a variety of disciplines, from chemistry to graph theory, geography to linguistics. This data is collected from a broad range of sources, and processed both automatically and by knowledgeable experts here at Wolfram Research, with the goal of providing data that is consistent, computable, and accurate.
How is this data delivered to you? At first, you might guess it's shipped along with the many other features of the product. But the box doesn't have a dozen CDs in it and there's only a single download from our online store. That's because Mathematica itself automatically downloads the data it needs, when it needs it.

Win 40 tickets to the premiere of Hall Pass
Thanks to Warner Bros. Pictures and Shooting Stars, we have premiere tickets to Owen Wilson's newest comedy to give away.
Best buds Rick and Fred (Owen Wilson and Jason Sudeikis) have both been married for many years. When they begin to show signs of restlessness at home, their wives (Jenna Fischer and Christina Applegate) take a bold approach to revitalize their marriages: they grant the guys a "hall pass," one week of freedom to do whatever they want. No questions asked.
At first, it sounds like a dream come true for Rick and Fred, but they quickly discover that their expectations of the single life—and themselves—are completely and hilariously out of sync with reality.

I don't know if Overstock charges tax? Costco online has them for $300.00 and free shipping....but, you would have to pay tax. Also, they are being bought on ebay anywhere from $260.00 and up ($300.00) with free shipping. The one cartridge is standard. Someone posted on CC that they are going to have them in the Costco stores. I think it is temporary??? But, that it was suppose to be a good deal, and suggested to check with your local Costco to find out the dates. HTH

I miss eating the naughties in front of the telly...but not as much as I'm sick of being fat. iwillbethin29 07-29-2008, 11:06 PM Congrats on losing those 6 lbs!!! YOU SHOULD BE REALLY PROUD OF YOURSELF!! i hope i lose weight......ugh...god i hope so so, did well today- casear salad with grilled chicken and a wonderful omlette my husband made me- it's been like 20 years since i've had an omlette!!! and it was great- i hate eggs, but am starting to feel better about them- as long as they are mixed with the right ingredients they are ok:carrot: Is anyone watching this dude on dr. phil!!! i feel so bad for his wife!!! So, i haven't gotten a headache or anything yet!!! But a few more days until the weekend- the job is going well- i don't really feel like i am doing anything- i don't know what they are paying me for- i'm really enjoying the new schedule- 5am- 2pm, i was used to 7am-8pm at my last job- it was awful- so, these are good changes.... i can't wait to buy new clothes---i'm so excited about thinking about it- i dress like i am 60!!! and i'm only 29!!! all black, ugh- and i want to cut my hair real trendy!!! something different, something up to date- before i have my mid-life crisis at 30!!!

I've never had to update my signature here, just update it on the tickerfactory.com page. It keeps track of my weight loss and my waist measurements, even gives me a nice little graph so I can see the overall picture. Same applies to my miles ticker (which only gets updated on my official weigh days...so if you see a huge jump in miles, that's why). Just have to make sure you remember the pin number.

The poor mommy or her maybe-serial killer husband. What???!!! I'm pretty sure if my husband had told me he was a serial killer and rapist, I'd be out of there as soon as I could get my children out of the door. "We're all going to learn to speak Spanish, kids...skipping school. Big Mexican vacation...starting NOW." He's clearly a nut-case. She doesn't have any boundaries...what does one have to do to make her a leave a man? Anyway, he sort of left the story hanging. How do we find out what finally happened to these people? Thanks for the words of encouragement. I'm excited about the six pounds; I was afraid I wasn't going to lose anything. My goal is 3 pounds a week hereafter. We'll see. I have lots to lose; I might be able to do that for a while anyway. And you're going to lose just fine! vBulletin® v3.6.7, Copyright ©2000-2015, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
