We used molecular methods to determine the microbial community of soil and avian plumage across biogeographic, ecological, and taxonomic scales. A total of 17 soil and 116 feather samples were collected from five avian species across multiple habitat types within one Neotropical and one temperate locality. Hypotheses regarding patterns of microbial composition relative to acquisition and dispersal of plumage bacteria in the ecosystem were tested by comparing microbial communities within and between soil and plumage. Samples from the plumage of American Redstarts (Setophaga ruticilla) were collected across both habitat types and geographic scales for intraspecific comparisons. The microbial diversity in avian plumage was moderately diverse and was dominated by Pseudomonas species. Despite a highly significant individual bird effect on microbial composition of the plumage, we detected significant biogeographic and type of habitat effects. Pseudomonas species were more abundant on the temperate site when all avian species were included in the analysis, and Bacillus subtilis and Xanthomonas groups were more abundant on the Neotropical site for redstarts alone. However, 16S rDNA sequence libraries were not significantly different between Jamaican and Maryland redstarts. Biogeographic and habitat effects were significant and more pronounced for soil samples indicating lower dispersal of soil microbiota. We detected a significant difference between soil and plumage microbial communities suggesting that soil plays a small role in plumage bacterial acquisition. Our results suggest bacterial communities on the plumage of birds are dynamic and may change at different stages in a bird's annual cycle.

Author's Nightmare: Two publishers choose the same cover for different books
This is the cover for Jonathan Zimmerman's new book about the history of the little red schoolhouse (Yale University Press, July 2009):
And this is the cover for Mike Rose's new book about the meaning of education (New Press, September 2009):
Professor Zimmerman told HNN he was aware that Mike Rose was working on a book on education, but"I had no idea that it would have the same cover as my own!"
Mike Rose told us in an email:
About three weeks ago, I got an email from an editor I know who had gotten an advanced copy of my book and who already had a copy of Jonathan's. You can imagine what went through my mind, some of which is not printable here. I sent panicked notes to my publisher, but it turned out that they had already printed the cover, and didn't have the resources or time to change course. I apologize to Jonathan, and I hope that both of our books do well.

Just like Latino public broadcasting, the Latino culture of a city is often ignored by traditional tourist magazines and guides. In a city known by the Spanish name for Saint Francis, you know there's definitely a Latino influence at work. We're here to assure you that there is more to San Francisco than Fisherman's Wharf, cable cars and sourdough bread. there are pupusas, tortillas, Día de los Muertos kitsch, traditional Mexican folk art and edgy, contemporary expressions of what it's like to be Latino in one of America's major cities. Maybe it's the salt air that produces such creativity, talent, skill and can-do attitude among Latinos in this city by the bay. Just scratching the surface, we found an abundance of Latino food, art, music, dancing, literature and activities that you're sure to enjoy while in San Francisco. Special thanks to the contributors Adriana Abarca, Ginny Z. Berson, Linda González, Chelis López, Luis Medina, Samuel Orozco, Manuel Ramos, Nina Serrano.

Sir Francis Drake was one of the first Europeans in 1579 to map the coast and called it Nova Albion, but the British made little effort to claim the land. Spain, however, found the bay of great strategic significance for trade and defense. It founded missions and eventually displaced over 10,000 Ohlone natives. Mission San Francisco de Asís was popularly called Mission Dolores because it was near a creek named after Our Lady of Sorrows. A small town grew up near the mission and was known as Yerba Buena because spearmint grew in abundance there. today's city, San Francisco, adopted the formal name of the Spanish mission. Until the late 1970s or early 1980s Yerba Buena remained the name of a San Francisco neighborhood; now it's only the name of a few buildings and a garden.

More than 600 local murals filled with color, beauty and social political narratives cover the walls of houses and commercial buildings. While there are numerous sites for mural viewing, we concentrate here on the ones that boast Latino themes. Balmy Alley (Between 24th and 25th St. just south of Folsom St.) Running straight into a park in a balmy section of San Francisco, this highly political and sometimes whimsical alley started in 1971 and fills the newly cobble-stoned street with Latino and South American murals portraying images of political strife, artistic movements and cultural heroes. Clarion Alley (One block over from 17th street between Valencia and Mission St.) this subversive alley is filled with contemporary-style murals started in 1992 and features one of the last murals by artist Chuy Jesús Campusano and is the acting location for the recognizably urban and graffiti aesthetic of San Francisco's New Mission School.

Every weekday on Marketplace, Kai Ryssdal hosts a lively and unexpected exploration of the day's business and economic news from Wall Street to your wallet.
Recent Episodes
07-24-2014- Marketplace- Facebook's Figured Out Mobile
Facebook's blow-the-roof off earnings report shows that it has figured out mobile, and is set to dominate the mobile ad world. So how did that happen, and what comes next? Plus, in its latest earnings report, automaker GM has revealed that it expects to spend between $400 million and $600 million to compensate victims of its defective ignition switches. We consider the company's strategy in handling its massive recall. Also, Twitter released its diversity statistics yesterday. Not surprisingly, they were as dismal as those at Google, Facebook and other tech companies. So now that they know the scope of the problem, what are these companies doing to address it?
07-23-2014- Marketplace- Big Box Target Goes Small
Fighting between Israel and Hamas has led some U.S. and European airlines to cancel flights to Israel on safety grounds. We explore how airlines decide when they should or should not fly to a given destination. Plus, Target Corp. opened its first 'TargetExpress' store in Dinkytown, Minneapolis today. At 20,000 square feet it's even smaller than its 'City Target' stores. This physical reduction reflects an expansion by the company into new markets, but why has this big box corporation decided to 'go small'? Is this part of a larger trend by big box stores to make their mark on smaller communities? Plus, how will this move impact the company's profit margin? We investigate. Also, corporate earnings continue to go up, up, up. But that doesn't mean these cash-rich companies are going to give you a job. We explain why.
07-22-2014- Marketplace- Is Boeing And Delta's Friendship Over?
Is inflation dead? Seems fair to say it's at least comatose. The latest numbers show little movement in consumer prices and that's unlikely to change soon. Plus, companies like Comcast and Netflix are raking it in. So what are they doing with all that money? We investigate. Also, Boeing and Delta are in a massive fight right now over this esoteric thing called the Ex-Im bank and how much money ends up in Boeing's hands. We explain what's at the core of the fight and how it's playing out in these two companies that once had a pretty symbiotic relationship.
07-21-2014- Marketplace- TSA Security Fees Increase
European leaders are angry with Russia and say President Vladimir Putin should do more to rein in the Russian separatists in Ukraine suspected of being involved in bringing down flight MH17. We examine what sanctions it would take to persuade Russia to change course. Plus, TSA security fees on airline tickets are about to go up. We explain the math behind your ticket. Also, Whirlpool is threatening to leave the EnergyStar program, unless Congress grants immunity from class-action lawsuits. How healthy, and vulnerable, is this label now?
07-18-2014- Marketplace- More Users More Money
Ukraine told airlines to avoid parts of its airspace. MH17 did that, but was shot down anyway. We look at what happens when countries recommend the closure of flight lanes and how airlines handle the decision and where to fly. Also, It's almost certain that the missile which downed MH-17 was a 70s-era Buk, or SA-11, a relic of the Cold War era that was Soviet-made, then sold off around the world via the international arms market, following the collapse of the USSR. We follow the long tail of the cold war weapons that point to the sky. And after, Twitter looks to expand the count on its user base beyond monthly users by changing its metrics to reflect tweets that are seen by people who are not logged in. Why? More users more money
07-17-2014- Marketplace- Gigantic Layoffs
Microsoft is laying off 14 percent of its staff, 18,000 employees. We look at how you manage a layoff process this big over that kind of time, and what effect it has on productivity and morale. Also, Amazon is preparing to launch an e-book subscription service, according to a page on its website. The service, called "Kindle Unlimited" would apparently give subscribers access to 600,000 books at a monthly cost of $10. The monthly-subscription model works well with movies but how well will it work in the book world? We investigate? Also, housing starts were down in June, and way down in the South. But as with all monthly data reports, the question is, what does this mean?

With the countdown to "Emerald City" underway, we're announcing programming details here first!
We're thrilled to have Tanya Steel on board as our special guest. As editor-in-chief of Epicurious.com and Gourmet.com, and best-selling author of Real Food for Healthy Kids, Tanya has a philosophy for teaching children to cook (and love) 'real', healthy food that aligns perfectly with our mission.
Like "The Odyssey" and "The Lord of the Rings," "The Wizard of Oz" is a story about a quest. At the end of the yellow brick road lies the Emerald City, and all Dorothy and her friends have to do is get there.
Easier said than done.
Grazie Amici!
Last month, the Associates Council hosted our 18th annual fall fundraiser, "Roman Holiday." The event was held at Bread & Tulips, a cozy and rustic-chic restaurant in New York's Gramercy area and gathered 130 guests to raise funds and awareness for The Children's Aid Society's (CAS) foster care program.
In the Wizard of Oz, the Tin Man meets Dorothy and states his yearning desire for a heart. He travels all the way to the Emerald City, along with the Cowardly Lion and the Scarecrow, merely to obtain a heart--one he deservingly receives, yet most likely already had.
In my last blog post, I wrote about the abundance of heart within the Associates Council's spring event committee and our lively path down the "yellow brick road." Today, I am thrilled to announce that we successfully reached our destination, the great Emerald City.
Remember the moment when Dorothy wakes up after the tornado, opens the door and finds herself in Munchkinland? Imagine seeing all that color at a time when almost every movie was black and white, and televisions didn't even exist. The Wizard of Oz is a paradigm of the Technicolor era, and despite the common misconception that it was colorized decades later, the 1939 film was originally and intentionally shot in sepia (Kansas) and Technicolor (Oz).
Last year's second annual spring fundraiser was "A Gatsby Affair," and the David Rubenstein Atrium transformed into the terrace of Jay Gatsby's mansion. Some of our most enthusiastic guests dressed in flapper outfits and fashion of the Roaring Twenties, and everything from the raffle tiers to the cocktails fell in line with the theme.
105 East 22nd Street | New York, NY 10010 | 212-949-4800 | 212-949-4936 (Development)
The Children's Aid Society is registered as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization

David Ellis Wins Top Prize at PULSE NY
Announcement: David Ellis Wins Top Prize at PULSE New York05/26/11
David Ellis is the recipient of the New York 2011 PULSE prize for his new work, True Value (Paint Fukette), a kinetic sound installation of old paint cans, created in collaboration with composer Roberto Lange.
Bruce Helander, editor-in-chief of The Art Economist, reviewed the work in The Huffington Post and lists Ellis as one of the top ten artists to watch. In his review, Helander states, "the artist corrals his past experiences from pop musical rhythms and studio experiments, spinning out a drippy acrylic conceptual curveball that is both utilitarian sculpture and jury-rigged subway drum set. Your first encounter with the work feels like a Candid Camera moment that's hard to believe."
At PULSE, Ellis also exhibited Animal, which was commissioned by Landmarks and is the first video in the university's public art collection. The work is nominated for the Austin Critics' Table 2010-2011 Award in the independent or public art project category and was recently profiled in Juxtapoz magazine.

"aye CB you better get a sexy ass female dancer, these old ones looking type done" Keeis said walking into the gym where they were holding the audition to be Chris Browns background dancer.
"imma hire who ever is able to keep up with me, weather it's a man or a woman doesn't matter" chris responded.
They stood up and waited for Big Hood to let in the first person. It was a girl. She walked in wearing black vans, gray sweatpants and a black sports bra.
"whats your name?" chris asked her.
"Tash" she said holding her hand on her hips.
"okay tash, i want you to freestyle to one of my songs then imma teach you a quick routine and you'll do that, okay?" Chris asked.
"got it" she said.
Keeis pressed play on the stereo and Bassline began to play. Chris, Big hood, Keeis and 2 of his best female dancers watched as Tash began to dance.
"what you thinking CB?" hood asked as chris watched her closely.
"she got potential, i gotta see how she does on my routine" she answered.
Tash ended her dance and the guys clapped for her. She smiled as she caught her breath.
"you ready? you gotta keep up with me" chris spoke.
"i got it" she said as chris stood in front up her and began to show her the steps. After he finished showing her the steps the music was turned on once more and she performed the routine with ease.
"iight, step through the door on the right and i'll let you know in about an hour" chris said as tash smiled and walked away.
The other door opened again and in walked in another girl wearing Concords, black tights and a white sports bra.
"whats your name?" chris asked.
"Christina" she spoke with a smile.
Chris told Christina the same thing he told Tash and she agreed. Keeis turned on the radio but this time played Turn Up The Music. Christina began to dance and added a more hip hop feel to her dance.
"i like her" keeis said as chris nodded her head.
"yeah she's good" chris said."iight now follow me" chris spoke to Christina. He played on making his routine alot harder for Christina since she was a really good dancer.
"can you doo it first and i'll do it after" she said as chris looked at her like she was crazy.
"you sure?" he asked.
"yeah, i got this" she laughed a little.
"iight" he smiled as he stood in front of her and did his routine as Christina watched him.
"you got that?" he asked when he was done. without an answer she went straight into the dance routine performing it with ease.
"okay, step through that door to the right and i'll get back at you" chris said as christina nodded and walked out.
"what yall think?" chris asked his team.
"she's a keeper" hood said.
"she iight" one of the other background dancer said.
"why you hating Kayla?" keeis asked.
"i dance better then her" kayla spoke.
"you just being bitter" summer spoke.
"whatever" kayla said.
They went though the rest of the girls and guys who were lined up outside and came down to a decision. Everyone who danced for them were now standing in front of them in a line.
"keeis here is gonna tap you on your shoulder, if you get tapped step up" chris spoke as keeis tapped Tash and 3 other people on the shoulder.
"you guys are really good, ut you didn't make it, BUT i do want you guys to stick around as back up for the background dancers" chris spoke."NOW the person who will be filling thethats' shoes for Gui is..." he paused as he walked in front of the line of people like he was a drill Sargent."Chrisina" He said as she jumped up and down and screamed. She ran to tash and they hugged each other.
"i'm sorry" christina said laughing as she calmed herself down.
"yall know each other?" hood asked.
"this is my best friend" christina said.
"thats whats up" chris said."but listen rehearsals start tomorrow at 8am and the back up dancers will be learning it to so be here at EIGHT AM" he said.
(it WILL get interesting as we go along)
I kinda feel like he was taking advantage of her:/ like he was trynna see if he could get it in if she had a few drinks in her system..... I hope this situation clears up in the next add. Still loved it though <3 run itttt:)))
Well damn Chris knows how to show a girl a good time for they bday. But damn yo, I thinbk Christina had too much to drink. Homegirls done got sick on a brotha. Can you say embarrasing....
After the show the crew went back to their hotel to get ready for the after part at cabali night club. Christina was in her room that she shared with tash pulling out clothes to wear. She was in nothing but a towel as she debated or not if she should even go.
"stop think and just have fun" tash said laying across her bed already ready.
"you know I don't celebrate my birthday" Christina reminded her.
"I know but we're in dubai! I'm sure they would want you to have fun" Tash said sitting up.
Christina thought about what tash said and a few moments later there was a knock at the door.
"get that, I'm not decent" Christina Said as tash signed as she got up and opened the door.
"Christina in here?" Chris asked.
"yeah" tash Said pushing the door open wider.
"uh hello I Said I wasn't dressed" Christina told Tash.
"I just wanted to see if you were still coming tonight?" he said walking in.
"imma be in the lobby" tash said smiling as she walked out the room.
"this is new to me, I never been to a club before, I don't even drink" she admitted.
"damn really?" he asked as she nodded her head yes. "well theres a first for everything" he said looking her up and down.
"okay okay it's time for you to go, If you want me to go I need to get dressed" Christina said pushing out the door.
"meet the crew in the lobby" he told he.
"okay" she said closing the the door.
Christina lotioned up her body, got dressed and let her hair fall straight down her back. She looked in the mirror as she put on her red lip stick on and smiled at herself. She grabbed her bag and walked out her room and and went down to the lobby were the rest of the crew was.
"damn can I holla" hood said laughing.
"nigga you know that's Chris's property" mijo Said.
"I am nobody's property, I am not an item" Christina said.
"okay ms Christina, lets go get turnt up" keeps said as the they walked outside the hotel.
Everyone hopped in the two escalsdes that were waiting for them outside. The driver pulled of and headed towards the club.
"wheres chris?" christina asked.
"why you wanna know?" mijo asked.
"dont go there, im just asking" she said.
"if you must know he's already at the club" keeis answered.
the crew pulled up, got out the cars and walked into the packed club.
"we going up there" hood said pointing two the VIP section up on the balcony.
They made their way up to the VIP section and the guys began to pop open the bottles.
"you look nice tonight" christina heard chris say behind her as she turned to face him.
"thanks, you don't look to bad yourself" christina said smiling.
"you want a drink?" chris aasked.
"i don't drink" she said.
"not even 1/ just to lossen up a little" he said putting his hands on her shoulders and shaking her a little.
"only 1" she agreed with a smile.
"got anything in mind?" he asked.
"surprise me" ahe said as he smiled and nodded before walking away.
"yall feeling each othwe" lauren said more as a statment.
"what makes you say that?' christina asked.
"the way yall looking at each outher, it all in the face" she answered.
"he's just cool" christina said."he's my boss, nothing more" she added in.
Bandz A Make Her Dance started to blast through the speakers and everyone in the club went crazy. Everyone started dancing and Christina was looking over the balcony winding her hips a little. She felt a body get close up to her and then a drink was in front of her.
"here you go" chris said handing her a drink.
"what is it?" she asked.
"classic Patron and Coke" he said as christina hesitated to drink it.
"don't be a baby" he said in her ear, his bodt still close to her. She took a sip of her drink, the patron burning on the way down.
"that burns" she said
"that means its working" chris said.
After drinking the first cup and another after that Christina got used to the way the liqor felt going down and sipped on a few more.
"christina turnt up" mijo told chris as they both turn around to see christina and tash dancing on each other.
"patron will do it to you" chris said laughing."what time is it?" he aasked.
"2:43am" mijo said looking at his watch.
"hold my drink, i'll be back" chris said handing his drink to mijo.
Chris walked up to christina wrapped his arms around her waist and got her away from the group.
"happy birthday" he said with his arms still wrapped around her.
"thank you" she said smiling.
"i got a gift for you" chris said.
"you didn't have t..." he kissed her on the lips cutting her off. He pulled away looking at her trying to read the expression on her face but it was blank.
"you okay?" he asked her but she didn't answer.
"i don't feel well" christina said running off with her hand on her mouth.
(blah chapter, i'm at my sisters house i'll give you guys more tomarrow)

The 'Carpe Diem' tour had already started over seas. They performed in places like Berlin and Paris just to name a few. The dancers were practicing as chris was out on stage doing a sound check with his fans.
"have you gotten used to doing that end routine to 2012?" kayla asked.
"you would think so but i still get nerviou when he's climbing up those steps" christina said.
"sounds like a crush to me" tash said.
"no, shut up" christina said pushing her a little.
"i wish i was doing that part, i'm not even gonna lie" temika said.
"you are to aggressive" lauren said laughing.
"true" temika said laughing.
"guess who's birthday is tomarrow!" tash said putting her arm around christina's shoulder as chris and his crew walked in.
"tomorrow's your birthday?" tyree asked.
"who's birthday tomarrow?" chris asked.
"christina's" tash said as christina shot her a look.
"you wasn't going to tell us? we turn up on birthdays" chris spoke.
"i don't really celebrate my birthday" christina said
"why not?" keeis asked.
"long story" christina said.
"well at least come out with us to the after party" chris insisted.
Christina planned on saying no but the smile chris had on his face made another word come out her mouth.
"alright" she gave in making him smile even wider.
"iight cool now lets get ready for the show tonight" chris said as everyone went on their way to get ready.
"DUBAI!!" chris yelled as he appeared on stage. The crowd screamed back and he got them hype for the show. "yall ready to have some fun?" he asked as the crowd screamed."leggo!" he said as his DJ, Drew began to play Look At Me Now.
After performing a few more songs the lets went off and he got ready for his famous Wet The Bed/Take You Down lap dance routine.
"KEEIS!" chris yelled out."go get christina" he added.
"you sure, Pat got this fine ass chick ou..." chris cut him off.
"nah, go get christina, tell her i said happy birthday" chris said as he ran back out on stage before the the music to Wet The BEd started playing and the lights came back on.
Back stage The rest of the dancers and crew watched the performance on the monitor.
"christina! come with me" keeis said as he walked in the room.
"what? why?" she asked.
"just come on" he said grabbing her arm and leading her to the side of the stage."you going on the chair" keeis said with a smirk.
"wait what? no" christina said as to guys came to escort her to the chair.
"Chris said happy birthday" keeis told her before the guys to her to sit in the chair.
ONce she was seated the song changed to Take You Down and chris looked at her as he sang seeing she was giving him the only death stare. He smiled and continued to sing. Christina watched as he gyrated, humped the floor and ripped off his. She seen these videos on youtube she knew what was coming next.
"I wanna take you down baby nice and slow so bring it lets go baby" he said right before straddling christina lap. He gyrated on her lap and he kissed and licked on her neck. SHe threw back her head and closed her eyes and she could hear him laugh in her ear.

When the song was down he helped her up of the chair and hugged her tightly.
"everybody say happy birthday to Christina!" he said into the mic as the whole crowd said happy birthday to her. He kissed christina on the cheek and set her off back stage to get ready for her set.
"i am going to kill you" she said to keeis when she rushed passed him,
"it was his idea not mine" he defended.
She got in her costume for the set and climbed her way up to the top of the stage set where she needed to be for her part. The music began to play and chris began to sing. Christina danced on the top of the set looking down at chris dancing one by one with the other female dancers. She walked towards the top of the steps and waited for chris as he climbed up. Once he got to the top she grabbed him and they did their end routine to 2012.
Her heart was still racing from the lap dance and this dance didn't help it at all. Once she got back stage she took off the hat she was wearing and sat on one of the couches before getting ready for another performance.
"were you angry or something?" mijo asked.
"what?" christina asked.
"you were mad aggressive" he added.
"she probably sexually frustrated" tash said laughing in the back.
"I am not...sexually frustrated" she said getting quieter."he made the routine not me" she said.
"i'm just saying it looked like you wanted it" mijo said saying.
"yall a bunch of fools i swear" christina said laughing as she got up to go get ready for the next song.

Survey of Simulators for Wireless Sensor Networks
Free registration required
Executive Summary
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have been gaining growing interest in the past years, which has resulted in many proposals of their new applications. The main tasks of a sensor network include not only monitoring and measuring certain phenomena, but also delivering gathered data. Hence, every single node needs to be a wireless router aside from being only a simple sensing device. The idea and the attributes of a Wireless Sensor Network require designers to apply different techniques than those hitherto used in wired as well as in wireless networks. The dynamic progress in the field of WSNs entails the need of creating simulators that have more specific capabilities.

Bad year for Arab financial markets
The market capitalization of 14 Arab financial markets fell by 14% since the beginning of this year until November 26. The loss amounted to US$128.7 billion. The figures were published by the Arab Monetary Fund. The report shows that the value of 13 Arab bourses fell, while the Qatari bourse kept its momentum.
The decline is attributed to the events of the "Arab Spring," which started late last year in Tunisia. These events led to a state of uncertainty and a slowdown in the economies of most the Middle East and North Africa countries.
The Stock Exchange of Damascus and Egypt posted the biggest decline in market capitalization in terms of percentage, followed by the Palestinian market and Kuwait. The Jordanian market is ranked 7th in terms of the decline with a drop of 14.1%. In money terms, the Egyptian Stock Exchange lost US$35.6 billion since the beginning of the year. The largest Arab bourse, the Saudi market, lost a total of US$34 billion since the beginning of 2011. All in all, the market capitalization of the Arab stock markets fell from US$991.5 billion at the end of 2010, to US$862.7 billion at the end of November 26. (Source: www.yallafinance.com)

Comment: Re:Lego Mindstorm (Score 1) 185
by bobs_lounge (#43503767) Attached to: Localized (Visual) Programming Language For Kids?
I want to start a meme against Mindstorms. My son (10yr) spents way too much time putting the legos together vs programming. The "language" are effectively hieroglyphs. His is getting into Scratch. I think its great. Its localizable,and can even be used to control a Lego Mindstorm robot!
