Opportunity Maine
Opportunity Maine refers to a tax Credit for Educational Opportunity offered by the State of Maine to students who completed all coursework at and graduated from a Maine institution, who live, work and pay taxes in Maine and have student loans taken out after January 1, 2008.
Students who graduated in 2008 & 2009 were required to complete and submit to the Office of Student Financial Aid an Opportunity Maine Contract prior to graduation.
What has changed: A contract is no longer required!!!
To claim the tax credit graduates, including those who graduated in 2008 and 2009 (who previously were required to sign a contract) need only to complete a worksheet and submit when filing a tax return.
The 2014 Credit for Educational Opportunity Worksheet is now available on the Maine Revenue Service's website.
When completing the worksheet, you will need to know the Benchmark Loan Payment
For more information on the Opportunity Maine Program, go to http://opportunitymaine.org.
Bachelor's Degree Graduation Year: | Benchmark Loan Payment: |
2008* | $360 |
2009* | $368 |
2010^ | $343 |
2011^ | $344 |
2012^ | $342 |
2013^ | $356 |
2014^ | $363 |
* The benchmark loan payment for 2008 and 2009 was calculated by the Office of Student Financial Aid.
^ The benchmark loan payment was calculated by the State of Maine
Here is a printable version
When claiming the credit make sure to have the following when going to see your tax adviser:
- Transcript
- Photo copy of their diploma or other proof of graduation (this is new this year)
- Copy of this worksheet - printable version
- History of payments to the loan service
Upon review of this worksheet, Maine Revenue Services may request supporting documentation for any or the following: degree received; date of degree; academic credit hours earned for the degree prior to January 1, 2008 and after December 31, 2007; the institution(s) from which the degree was earned; the educational loans that qualify for the credit; the educational loan payments made by you or your employer during the tax year that qualify for the credit; any other information necessary to substantiate the credit claimed.

Ross Baker, a political science professor at Rutgers University, said the country remains closely divided, much as it was in the 2000 and 2004 presidential races. "Both parties have consolidated their bases. There are really very few independents. They may not register their party affiliation. But they all lean in one direction or the other," Baker said. Economic issues will shape the national post-election agenda no matter who wins as the nation hurtles toward a toxic brew of expiring Bush-era tax cuts and more than $1 trillion in automatic defense and domestic spending cuts that will begin to take effect in January unless Congress can strike a deficit-reduction deal to stop it. Congress, as closely divided as the nation itself, so far has been unable to do so. Economists and many in the business community warn that going over the so-called fiscal cliff could plunge the nation back into recession. Congress returns to work next week to deal with the fast-approaching economic crisis and other unfinished business. But House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, campaigning for Romney in Ohio, said he isn't holding his breath waiting for a grand compromise and said a short-term temporary fix is probably "the best you can hope for." It's seems doubtful the congressional mix after the election will be much more conducive to bipartisanship. Republicans are confident of keeping, even expanding, their majority in the House, while Democrats are increasingly hopeful of retaining control in the Senate. Even if the economy is central to Tuesday's election, many economists say it's likely to get better under either Obama or Romney. Billionaire investor Warren Buffett, a strong Obama supporter, agrees. The U.S. economy is "inching ahead" and business will improve regardless, Buffett says, and "the economy will get better under either one of them."

Flexible decision support in dynamic inter-organisational networks
An effective Decision Support System (DSS) should help its users improve decision making in complex, information-rich environments. We present a feature gap analysis that shows that current decision support technologies lack important qualities for a new generation of agile business models that require easy, temporary integration across organisational boundaries. We enumerate these qualities as DSS Desiderata, properties that can contribute both effectiveness and flexibility to users in such environments. To address this gap, we describe a new design approach that enables users to compose decision behaviours from separate, configurable components, and allows dynamic construction of analysis and modelling tools from small, single-purpose evaluator services. The result is what we call an 'evaluator service network' that can easily be configured to test hypotheses and analyse the impact of various choices for elements of decision processes. We have implemented and tested this design in an interactive version of the MinneTAC trading agent, an agent designed for the Trading Agent Competition for Supply Chain Management.

DeviantART has long prided itself on providing a community for both visual and literary artists. To this end, they are arguably the biggest and best on the Internet, home to millions upon millions of works bridging the gap from the beginners first step to the professionals masterpiece. Yet, as with all art communities, deviantART is community-driven, and there are noticeable problems in the way that this works in practice, the most glaring of which is the disturbing lack of recognition for good prose-writers.
A simple glance at the Popular Prose section reveals what deviantART really reads. Chapters from fan-fiction serials. Scripts for anime-esque stories. Every once in awhile, a comedy selection might creep into the upper echelons of daily viewing, but this small victory seems restricted to that one genre.
A check of the Popular Poetry section reveals a similar unbalance, with largely dark and unoriginal works taking the spotlight. Clearly, the only poems worth reading are those written by a thirteen-year-old who has experienced enough of love to realize that its nothing but a gaping hole of death, somehow relative to a black rose and blood.
This is partly stereotypical, and for those who actually do write fantastic melancholic poetry or vibrant fan-fictions (and there certainly are some out there), I apologize if this seems particularly barbed. Nonetheless, this severe unbalance shadows that diversity which should be the remarkable feature of any true community of writers. Because of the focus on these particular aspects, the present-day heirs to Romanticism and Realism are forgotten. Philosophic works remain within a tight circle instead of spreading to the rest of the community.
And what is the solution? Can there even be one? Without a widespread of movement, and a conscious effort of many to search out works outside of the comfortable genre, nothing will be done. The community will continue its stagnant trend, ever-growing in size but never getting healthier. Unless we unite as a community and retrain our focus from the familiar to art itself, many will be forced to rely upon specialized groups, which are merely smaller mirrors of this same problem. If we ever do attain this state of balance for all artists, the communitys artistic talent will flourish. And indeed, that is why we are here, is it not?

A Two-Layer Gold Surface with Improved Surface Enhancement for Spectro-Electrochemistry Using Surface-Enhanced Infrared Absorption Spectroscopy
Applied Spectroscopy, Vol. 63, Issue 9, pp. 1068-1074 (2009)
Acrobat PDF (7444 KB)
A two-layer gold surface is developed for use with surface-enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy (SEIRAS) consisting of a conducting underlayer onto which Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) are grown by self-catalyzed electroless deposition. AuNPs are grown on protruding substructures of the 25 nm thin underlayer. The enhancement factor of the two-layer gold surface is controlled by the growth conditions. Cytochrome c adsorbed to a self-assembled monolayer of mercaptoethanol is used as a reference system. Under optimum conditions the absorbance of the amide I band is increased by a factor of 5 versus the classical SEIRAS surface. Reversible reduction/oxidation of cytochrome c on the two-layer gold surface is shown to take place by cyclic voltammetry.

By now, everyone's heard the stories, or knows someone who is involved.
Hotel rooms in the Midland-Odessa area going for $400, or more, per night. Trailer parks, even in neighboring towns like Snyder, Andrews and Seminole with no vacancies. People leaving careers they've trained or earned degrees for, or both, for the high-paying oil field jobs. Fast-food workers earning close to $20 per hour.
Those are just some of the examples of how the recent boom in the oil and gas business has impacted economically not only the Permian Basin but all of West Texas. But the impact goes well beyond that.
Bradley Ewing, a professor of energy economics in the Texas Tech University Rawls College of Business, recently co-authored a report, "Economic Impact of the Permian Basin's Oil and Gas Industry" which shows the region is now one of the biggest oil and gas producers in the world with an economic impact felt across the country.
The Permian Basin Petroleum Association commissioned the report.
View the full report here.
"We're delighted that Professor Ewing, with his exceptional professional background in this field, has been able to provide this important document which we hope will serve the Permian Basin well," said Robert V. Duncan, vice president for research at Texas Tech. "We look forward to being of service to society in this regard in the future."
For the report, the Permian Basin was defined as the area stretching from Hale County north of Lubbock to the Rio Grande Valley and into parts of southeastern New Mexico. It includes the Delaware and Midland basins as well as several known resource plays such as Wolfberry, Spraberry, Bone Springs, San Andres, Clearfork, Cline Shale and Wolfcamp.
Ewing and his team found that the Permian Basin has the greatest rig count of any basin or region in the world and represents 27 percent of the total rig count in the United States and 56 percent of the total rig count in Texas.
According to the report, which estimates the economic impact for 2013, the Permian Basin's oil and gas industry creates and sustains more than 546,000 jobs, with an economic output of $137.8 billion, and creates more than $71.1 billion to the gross state products of both Texas and New Mexico.
"The industry's activities generate and sustain jobs, income, output and provide substantially to the gross state products of both Texas and New Mexico," the report stated. "In addition, through various measures of taxation, the industry provides many localized benefits to the citizens of both Texas and New Mexico."
In Texas alone, the Permian Basin is estimated to produce and sustain more than 444,000 jobs with $113.6 billion in economic output, and contribute more than $60.2 billion in gross state product for the state. For New Mexico, the Permian Basin is estimated to produce and sustain more than 94,000 jobs with $22.7 billion in economic output and more than $10.2 billion contributed to the gross state product.
Much of the growth of the rig count can be attributed to wells that are being drilled horizontally, which includes the increasingly popular multi-state hydraulic fracturing. According to the report, since Dec. 27, 2013, the number of horizontal, oil-directed rigs in the Permian Basin rose by 63 percent, which accounts for half of the total increase in those types of rigs in the United States.
The economic impact, however, is not felt just in drilling and exploration, but also in all the other industries that provide support.
"Ultimately, economic impacts derive from the exploration, drilling and production of oil and gas, which require a multitude of support activities for oil and gas operations," the report said. "These core activities, in turn, lead to a number of non-core but very critical midstream supply chain activities, such as pipeline, transportation, refining and equipment manufacturing."
The "secondary effects" of oil and gas drilling and exploration impact not only suppliers to the industry but also wholesale, retail, real estate and housing and financial services.
"Having studied the industry for a number of years, we were not surprised at the magnitude of the impacts from our researchers' point of view," Ewing said. "However, what stands out to us is the greater importance the oil and gas industry plays in the overall stability of the Permian Basin's economy."
Because of the way the industry functions in the area, Ewing and his team concluded the region's economy is becoming more stable and the growth sustainable.
The economic impact is felt in all industries that provide support, from drilling to housing and retail.
"The more recent performance of the industry is linked to greater economic stability," Ewing said. "Moreover, the research indicates the economics of the industry and region are sustainable. However, that is dependent on infrastructure and capital formation keeping pace."
This report marks the second one this summer Ewing has helped produce for the petroleum industry. In July, he was commissioned for a report on the economic impact the Texas oil and gas pipeline industry has on the state.
"This research solidifies Texas Tech as the leader in the area of energy economics and petroleum engineering research," Ewing said.
In addition to Ewing, others who helped research and write the report included Marshall C. Watson, department chair for Texas Tech's Bob. L. Herd Department of Petroleum Engineering, Terry McInturff, professor and chair of the Rawls College of Business Area of Energy, Economics and Law, Russell McInturff, a professor in the Area of Energy, economic and law, as well as petroleum engineering doctoral students Tariq Ali, Roland O. Ezewu and Ibegbuna Ezisi.

Paul Purcell Says:
September 6th, 2014 at 3:10 pmWhat happens to the area when the oil wells run dry?.. Does the town turn into a ghost town?.. Is there true gain when waitresses make 20 bucks/an hour but everything else has increased in price either at the same pace or at a greater pace?.. What is going to be the cost of importing drinking water to the area when you contaminate the ground water with the fracking and other unconventional and conventional drilling practices?.. What costs will be externalized to the health care industries of the area and other area's.. The pollution generated in this corner of the world will migrate to others causing damage there.. The gains of the economic growth of the area are going to be eclipsed by the costs of the businesses leaving when the wells run dry..
Investment in clean renewable energy is true gain in the economy and infrastructure.. Wind, wave, solar and biofuels.. The wind will always blow.. The waves will always be there.. The sun will always shine and crops can be grown indefinitely on a parcel of land provided sustainable agricultural practices are employed.. -

Luke Says:
September 8th, 2014 at 12:07 pmWay to be a troll Paul.
Wind energy is intermittent which means on those hot west Texas days when it is 102 with no wind and everyone is cranking their AC will still be using oil and natural gas generators which back the wind power up. There will always be a need for Oil as it is in everything around us and that won't be changing anytime soon.
Gary B Says:
September 8th, 2014 at 9:13 pmThe only limitless power source is the sun. If the oil industry is as smart as I think they are they'll solve the technology behind storing solar energy to use it 24/7/365. Watch "Nobility" by Turk Pipkin for a truly mind boggling interview with a nobel laureate from Houston about our energy challenge.
Gary B Says:
September 8th, 2014 at 9:20 pmMaybe the dept of Petroleum engineering should consider a name change to Dept. of ENERGY ENGINEERING to expand the mindset of the bright, capable minds residing there.
Robert Says:
September 9th, 2014 at 10:58 amPaul, fracking does not contaminate drinking water.
T.W. Says:
September 16th, 2014 at 4:26 pmRight there with you Paul!!!
We can already store energy from wind and solar sources. And we can very easily build roads that are made out of solar panels strong enough to be driven on. Now all we need to do, is find the rare earth metals that make this task economically feasible enough to be scaled across our vast need for energy, sure hope you're ready to pay $1+/kwh. In the meantime, even if you have misinformed reasons to condemn the energy industry, you're going need their power to retweet whatever celeb's opinion is popular that day. -

October 8th, 2014 at 3:49 pmI live in Midland, and it's been a madhouse since the boom hit. I live south of I20 off FM1788, and the oil field traffic is terrible. Few days go by that you don't hear about a bad wreck somewhere close by: on 1788 or on I20 or somewhere else in the county. I live right across from a big oil lease and the big water tankers literally fly down my road. I'm afraid that some day someone will come off one of the side roads and get hit by one of those tankers. The speed limit is 15 and they totally ignore it! Just east of me is a small trailer park that's been there only a few months comprised of about 10 camper trailers; and just to the east before getting back to 1788 someone has put in a trailer park with the big "bunkhouse" type trailers. These small trailer parks are all over Midland and Odessa. The economy is soaring, but so are prices. My telephone and electric bills have gone up, which is ridiculous. I live in a small trailer and use very little in the way of utilities, but my phone bill was up by $22 this month as was the electric bill.

October 8th, 2014 at 4:15 pmMeeting the world energy demand is grossly misunderstood by the global population, Wiki "World Energy Consumption" and see for yourself. A fantastic documentary about the incredible energy needs, growth and methods of meeting demand can be accessed at http://www.switchenergyproject.com/
83% of global energy demand is achieved by hydrocarbons and coal. Wind, water & solar account for less than 5%. It is a matter of physics. Wind, water & solar simply cannot deliver on a scale of energy need of 10 Quadrillion British Thermal Units per year. That's 10 with 15 more zeros.
Global energy demand is rising as nations industrialize. The 2 largest populations on the planet are rapidly bringing their populations into the modern industrial era and both utilize the most abundant & cost effect means to supply energy. Fossil Fuels.
Wood from trees once were the primary heating and cooking source. Petroleum saved the trees.
Whales were once harvested for blubber that was rendered to lighting oil. Petroleum saved the whales.
Mass production of food via tractors and heavy machinery serve the global food demand. Petroleum feeds people.
Crisis response teams address crisis needs on a global level. Petroleum makes that possible.
Every machine on the globe requires lubrication which is derived from crude oil. There are more than 1800 lube varieties.
Plastics & synthetic fibers (Nylon etc) are derived from petroleum. We enjoy durable fabrics, carpet, foam cushioning and artificial turf thanks to petroleum.
Insulation for wiring, plastic for your computer components, paint, fertilizer, make up, and more than 6000 other materials are derived from petroleum.Thank you Permian Basin for providing this vital resource to the people that take it for granted! And thanks to the work force that make it possible!
Byron Garrett Says:
October 20th, 2014 at 2:20 amThink of the jobs being produced in west Texas it can bring in so much more stability for the community. But people need to realize the workers are here to help your community, and not be charged an arm and a leg for housing.

Day 41/100 - My Date With The Doctor - 20 Questions
View IAM146POUNDS's Sparkpage
View All Blog Entries from IAM146POUNDS
Monday, October 28, 2013
Well tomorrow morning at 9.30 am I have a date with the Doctor! I have been re-reading the letters that I have got from him and the Vascular Surgeon, and revising a lot of information that I have read on the internet on my condition, and then I have done a brain storming session and wrote down all the questions that are still on my mind. There is so much conflicting and confusing information on the Internet, that I am going back to basics:-
As this blog is logging my journey, I will jot the questions down here and take a print off with me tomorrow and a pen. I will then type up his answers to remind myself what his recommendations are:-
So here goes:-
1. What is moderate Carotid Stenoses Bilaterally?
2. Why do the letters also refer to me having Vascular disease, and atheriosclerosis? Are these different names for the same thing?
3. Why does the letter say that I am very young to have this condition?
3. Are other arteries likely to be affected or is the issue just with my Carotid artery?
4. The letter says that the problem is caused by lesions/scarring, does this mean that it was caused by an infection? Was it connected to my episode of encephalitis and the inflammatory markers that you alluded to?
5. If infection was not the cause, could it be lifestyle related or have genetic underpinnings?
6. Why does the letter say that I should be on Statins irrespective of cholesterol levels?
7. Do you have any peer review papers, that show the effectiveness of Statins for cases like mine, in preventing strokes/heart attacks etc? Would you take them in my position?
8. If I took them what side effects should I look out for?
9. What diet is recommended for somebody with this condition?
10. What weight/BMI/BP and cholesterol level should I be aiming for?
11. Do I have to be careful with overexerting myself or with my stress levels?
12. What exercise regime is the most effective for keeping it under control?
13. Is the condition reversible? Could I get my artery/s back to normal? How?
14. Should I have the rest of my arteries checked out?
15. How often do I need my blood pressure/cholesterol/arteries checked?
16. Would the 30 Day Shred be a suitable exercise regime for me?
17. What signs should I be aware of that would indicate stroke/heart attack/vascular disease was progressing/imminent?
18. Are there any books/internet sites that you would recommend that would cover the above?
19. Show him my ankle, where I am having intermittent pain, and ask him what he thinks is causing it?
20. What are you doing at the weekend? (Just kidding on that one, I have learned my lesson).
I am Habitatvitality's Scottish twin.

Hit him up with ALL the questions, just let him know that it will be a bit like a speed date interview ! LOL

Thanks Habitat, I will look at the questions tonight again, and see if I can simplify them into 10 questions, so that he will not be overwhelmed. I only have 15 minutes with him, so every second counts.
I don't have a laugh with this doctor though, as he is a very serious, studious sort of chap, about my age! I have a lot of respect for him, so I will behave myself. Question 20 will be kept firmly under wraps.
My poor doctor and dentist will not know what has hit them.
Report Inappropriate Comment
I'd start with question number 20 and work backwards .... he should like that after last time!
Great idea to blog and print - it's interesting that a few times I have gone back to a blog to check which day I did such and such. Having never kept a diary it is subtly comforting to have some history of events. Imagine if they had the internet back in the early days - there'd be so much more captured about history. Best wishes for tomorrow - we'll be thinking of you.

The nail becomes the vessel as opposed to needing an item to snort a line of coke through; ie, a straw, rolled up dollar bill, etc...
Did you see the coke nails on that guy?

When someone has at least one abnormally long fingernail (usually the pinky) on each hand. Though it is not usually stated, it is assumed to be a substitution for a straw, rolled-up dollar bill, etc. for snorting cocaine.
Guy 1: Man, I wanna do some blow, but I'm outta straws and cash.
Guy 2: I got ya, scro! That's what my coke nails are for!

One pound of body weight will yield just less than 1 cubic inch of ash. Assume for shopping purposes that: 1 pound body weight = 1 cubic inch ash.
Cremation urn item descriptions list the size of the urn in Cubic Inches. If you know the weight of the deceased - then you know the size of the urn you need. Approx Weight = Approx Size.
Easy example: A cremated 100 pound person will yield almost 100 cubic inches of ashes. So, if 1 pound = 1 cubic inch then this person would need an urn that is approximately 90-100 cubic inches or larger.
Keepsake Jewelry is designed to hold a trace amount of ashes, similar to the size of the head of a sewing pin.

Before mosquitos have time to hatch, help is on the way for Minnesotans.
The Metropolitan Mosquito Control District began helicopter treatments on Tuesday. The state is home to over 50 different mosquito species. The helicopters will treat around 1,500 acres of large breeding sites to prevent larvae from growing into biting adults.
Sites in Chanhassen, Apple Valley, Eden Prairie, Shoreview, Savage and Afton, among others, have been identified as problem areas.
They work by applying a pellet containing a bacterium to wetlands and large areas of standing water that prevent larvae from growing into adult bugs. The district does not spray insecticides to control adult mosquitos.
Small breeding sites will be treated by hand.
The control district said residents can help stop mosquitos by cleaning out water holding containers, especially old tires.

A PCR assay in addition to conventional serologic testing provides quick confirmation of the diagnosis of herpes zoster oticus infection.
Approximately 25% of all cases of extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) occur in the head and neck region; NHL of the external auditory canal (EAC) and thyroid gland are rare. Specific immunohistochemical staining of the excised tissue is required to confirm the final pathologic diagnosis. We report the case of a 53-year-old woman with underlying systemic lupus erythematosus and autoimmune hemolytic anemia that were in remission. She presented with chronic left ear pain, a mass in the left EAC, and rapid growth of an anterior neck swelling that had led to left vocal fold palsy. High-resolution computed tomography (CT) of the temporal bone and CT of the neck detected a mass lateral to the left tympanic membrane and another mass in the anterior neck that had infiltrated the thyroid gland. The patient was diagnosed with simultaneous B-cell lymphoma of the left EAC and thyroid gland. She was treated with chemotherapy. She responded well to treatment and was lost to follow-up after 1 year. To the best of our knowledge, the simultaneous occurrence of a lymphoma in the EAC and the thyroid has not been previously described in the literature.
Cystic chondromalacia of the auricle is an uncommon condition in which a degenerative process occurs within the cartilage. The disorder affects young and middle-aged people. Clinically, it manifests as a painless, fluctuant swelling that frequently relapses despite various therapeutic approaches. In this article we report a typical case of cystic chondromalacia of the auricle that was successfully treated by surgery-specifically, dual-plane dissection-and we briefly review the literature.
Angiolipoleiomyoma (ALLM) is a solid tumor that is mostly derived from muscle tissue. It is often located in the kidneys of patients with tuberous sclerosis; ALLMs located outside the kidneys are very rare. Among the rare presentations are cutaneous ALLMs, which manifest as 1- to 4-cm asymptomatic, acquired, solitary, subcutaneous nodules that have a strong predilection for males. To the best of our knowledge, only 22 cases of ALLM of the skin have been previously reported in the literature; in 5 of these cases, the tumor was located on the ear. Histologically, tumoral proliferation is observed with smooth muscle, fat tissue, and vascular channels surrounded by a fibrous capsule; cellular atypia is not observed. We report the case of a 67-year-old man who presented for evaluation of a purplish nodular lesion that had been present on his right earlobe for 10 years. Analysis of an excisional biopsy specimen revealed a nodular formation that consisted mostly of thick-walled veins within a fibromyxoid stroma; smooth-muscle tissue and fat globules were observed in places. The lesion was diagnosed as a cutaneous ALLM.
Because of the inconspicuous clinical presentation of chondroid syringomas, they are often disregarded; other, more common, differential diagnoses are usually considered.
We describe a rare case of necrotizing fasciitis of the ear in an otherwise generally healthy 39-year-old man. The ear is rarely involved in this often-fatal disease. The diagnosis was suspected on the basis of clinical examination and confirmed by computed tomography and pathology of a biopsy specimen, which revealed subcutaneous gas formation and dermal infiltration of inflammatory cells, respectively. The patient was promptly treated with surgical debridement, intravenous antibiotics, and hyperbaric oxygen. He recovered well and subsequently underwent otoplastic reconstruction with very satisfactory results. By documenting this case, we aim to heighten awareness of necrotizing fasciitis of the head and neck in an effort to improve survival rates.
Otolaryngologists are increasingly expected to perform a variety of minor surgical procedures in both elective and emergency situations. Surgical repair of the subtotally amputated/torn auricle, hitherto the realm of plastic surgeons, is a procedure that can be performed both at the clinic and in the emergency room, thereby sparing patients the inconvenience and cost of referral to another subspecialist. Presented in this article are 3 cases of traumatic tearing/amputation of the external ear: 1 caused by a motorbike accident, 1 caused by a human bite, and 1 by a machete. All three ears were successfully reconstructed nonmicrovascularly.
Basaloid squamous cell carcinoma (BSCC) is rare. We report a case of BSCC in a 60-year-old woman who presented with a bleeding vascular growth on the left pinna. To the best of our knowledge, no case of BSCC of the pinna has been previously reported in the literature. We present this case to alert physicians that this highly aggressive variant of squamous cell carcinoma can appear on the pinna and therefore it should be considered in the differential diagnosis of lesions in this area.
In this article we describe the capsular flap for covering the posterior surface of cartilaginous framework in ear reconstruction. This technique has not been previously described in the published literature.
Pressure ulcers over the pinna usually develop as a result of local compression from oxygen mask tubing.
A 4-year-old boy presented with a painless swelling over the right pinna of 4 months' duration. Histopathologic examination of the excised mass revealed features of pilomatricoma-a rare, benign skin neoplasm arising from hair follicle matrix cells. The unusual location of the lesion over the pinna, despite its frequent occurrence in the head and neck, prompted this article. We discuss the etiology, clinical presentation, and management of pilomatricoma of the auricular region
Exostoses, composed of immature layers of lamellar bone that cause a progressive stenosis of the external ear canal, are typically bilateral, occur at suture lines, and are associated with repeated exposure to cold water.

For shit.

Treasury Department officials are planning a secondary sale of shares for late summer or early fall.
It was a straightforward question decided in a straightforward manner. The question: with another Halogen Software Inc. equity offering in the works, what would happen to the syndicate when one of the five underwriters — specifically one of the two lead managers and book runners used in its initial public offering that was completed earlier this year — has exited the business?
Microsoft is on track to deliver Windows 10, its next version of Windows, as early as the late summer, COO Kevin Turner told attendees of the Credit Suisse Technology Conference on Thursday.
The National Association for Law Placement has released its analysis of hiring for the fall 2012 summer associate recruiting season, and the results aren't pretty. Firms are being pretty stingy when handing out summer offers, which are made to second-year law students. In fact, things are almost as bad as they were during the recession, according to the NALP.
Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs and Deutsche Bank were chosen to lead the government's massive first sale of its A.I.G. holdings, expected in mid-May.
IT'S difficult to imagine a scenario in which America's labour market recovery proceeded as rapidly as the one following the 1982 downturn. This was a different sort of recession, and history tells us that recoveries in the wake of debt busts and financial crises are long and slow. Still, things looked somewhat promising back in the spring of this year. Private employment, which had begun growing again in January of 2010, rose by 158,000 jobs in March and by 241,000 jobs in April.
After the market close yesterday, TriNet Group announced plans to initiate a secondary offering of its common stock. The shares are being offered by General Atlantic LLC, which has a stake in the company. It involves the sale of 10,500,000 shares of TriNet's common stock.

OTTAWA — Prime Minister Stephen Harper is set to return from his European trip but he won't have to endure another grilling in the House of Commons for a while.

BEIJING — Police have detained a local official and a driver for fatally running over a 13-month-old boy during an argument with his family over the payment of a fine for violating China's strict family planning limits, state media and the local government said Wednesday.
Lakshman Achuthan of the Economic Cycle Research Institute (ECRI) got a lot of praise and attention for predicting recent recessions, which were subsequently confirmed by the NBER.

As long as it has the standard headphone port, then you are fine. And even if it doesn't fit because of the headphone port, I'm sure there would be an adapter to make it fit.

Charlie Meyer - 30 Year Service Award
Charlie Meyer of Bowling Green is part of an elite group of weather observers known as the "Cooperative Weather Observer Network". A 30 Year Length of Service Award was presented to Charlie by Phil Gray and Albert P. Shipe, of the National Weather Service in Indianapolis. Charlie has been collecting and recording precipitation readings since March of 1976, continuing the long line of observations which date back over 50 years.
His daily readings are relayed to the NWS office at Indianapolis via telephone and his monthly data is mailed to the NWS and is used to assist the NWS by providing a historical record of rainfall for the Bowling Green area. Weather observations are very important to the mission of the National Weather Service. Over 11,000 volunteers record weather data every day throughout the nation and have provided a data base from which climatic summaries have been compiled. This data is used extensively in science, technology and engineering. Data from the cooperative station at the Bowling Green is published in the Climatological Data for Indiana and Hourly Precipitation Data for Indiana. Congratulations to Charlie Meyer from the National Weather Service for 30 years of dedicated service! |
