Day 1: Monreale & Palermo
This morning we will visit where the Arab-Norman art and architecture reached the pinnacle of its glory with the Monreale Duomo, launched in 1174 by William II. Scenes from the Old and New Testaments are depicted in golden mosaics covering the interior. Then on to Palermo to Then on to Palermo to explore the fascinating Capuchin Catacombs. The Catacombs outgrew their original cemetery in the 16th century and monks began to excavate the crypts below it. The bodies were dehydrated on the racks of ceramic pipes in the catacombs and sometimes later washed with vinegar. Monks were preserved with their everyday clothing and sometimes with ropes they had worn as a penance. The catacombs contain about 8000 mummies that line the walls. The halls are divided into categories: Men, Women, Virgins, Children, Priests, Monks, and Professionals. We continue by exploring the lively Open Air Capo Market, a large open street market that captures the flavour of Palermo's Saracen Arab past. Capo is a blend of general confusion and a jumble of vendors' stalls, winding toward the old gate (Porta Carini) of what used to be the city wall. This afternoon we continue by seeing Piazza Pretoria and Via Maqueda, whose four corners converge Palermo at a quartet of baroque palaces left over from the heyday of Spanish rule dating from 1560.
Day 2: Palermo/Marsala Winery/Salt Way Road/Olive Oil Factory/Erice/Palermo

Than to an Olive Oil factory to indulge in our typical light-lunch. This afternoon we will continue to Erice uptown. The Elymians settled the medieval town of Erice, which was an important religious site associated with the goddess Venus. Wander through its ancient streets and visit some of the famous homemade pastry shopsworld-famous for marzipan candies and other delicacies like almond and pistachio pastries.

I am running an Ubuntu v10.04 through VirtualBox. To test the persistence of files I create in the virtual machine, I wrote a very basic C program. When I shutdown the virtual machine and restart it, I see that the files have been retained.
What happens:
I can check the directory with
ls /root/
and see bothprogram_name.c
and the compiledprogram_name
I use this command to compile:
gcc program_name.c -o program_name
I can run
and the program will execute properly.Opening the C code with
nano program_name.c
shows the program, as I expect it to be.
The problem is...
When I try to the program via
, nothing happens!If I check the exit status (
echo $?
), it is zero.
So what gives...?
I am a beginner, clearly, and I am having difficulties understanding why I can't run the compiled C program, even though I can find it. It is most bizarre to me considering I can locate all the files AND ./a.out
executes it properly.
Edited for clearer presentation.
Edit regarding answer...
In the off chance that someone else comes to this looking for help, it should be noted that while the file program_name
command did expose that the file was blank, the cause hasn't been determined. I successfully ran the executable before I restarted the virtual machine.
Perhaps I didn't shut down the virtual machine properly? Anyways, checking the file was/is certainly helpful!

Since 1921, Weleda has pioneered the use of Biodynamic® and organic ingredients in skincare and medicines to promote natural harmony and health. Our purest ingredients—natural, organic, Biodynamic® and wild crafted—come directly from nature and are cultivated with the loving hands of dedicated farmers throughout the world. We create premier, naturally therapeutic skincare that captures the power and potency of nature. When you care for your skin with our soothing preparations, you will experience a vitality that only nature can bring.
All of our premier formulations are preserved with natural ingredients. We use organic grain alcohol, natural essential oils and pure plant extracts to maintain the life of our products. Furthermore, our unique and recyclable packaging protects each formulation and helps to prevent against oxidation. As a result of these naturally effective preservation techniques, it is not necessary to refrigerate our products. All product life information can be found on the inner and outer packaging.
Our products are naturally colored with the essential plant extracts that make-up each pure formula. All formulas are naturally fragranced with essential oils and plant extracts. We do not use any synthetic colors or fragrances.
We use only natural oils and plant extracts. All Weleda products are FREE of synthetic preservatives, fragrances, colorants and raw materials derived from mineral oils, as well as genetically modified organisms (GMO's). Our products are instead FULL of the highest quality, pure and natural ingredients for your body.
We do not test our ingredients or skincare products on animals. It is unnecessary for us to do so, as the plant materials that makeup our pure formulations have been used internally and externally for countless centuries. Long before animal-testing was introduced, all "testing" was done on humans, establishing a system of trial and error. Thus, many materials were established as safe and effective. As a result, Weleda's use of raw materials has a long history of safe usage. We ensure that our biodynamically grown ingredients and those provided by our partners have not been tested on animals.
Biodynamic® and organic farming methods are similar to one another in that they both work to enhance the soil and cultivate plants that are free of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. Biodynamic® cultivation, however, goes a step further—beyond organic. Homeopathic preparations are used to enhance the vitality of the plants. Each plant is harvested by hand at its peak, according to the season, time of day, and position of the planets in the universe. At Weleda, we view the earth as an interconnected living organism. Plants, animals and human beings have an inherent and beautiful relationship with one another and their surroundings. Our philosophy—Cultivating Beauty—lies deep within the principle of Biodynamics®. Visit Our Biodynamic® Gardens to learn more.
The International Nomenclature for Cosmetic Ingredients (INCI) is the system we have adopted for labeling and declaring our skincare ingredients. The multilingual and multinational labeling requirements implemented by the European Union require a full declaration of ingredients on personal care packaging. This labeling standard denotes all ingredients according to their Latin (Chemical / Scientific) designation. Those manufacturers following the INCI are therefore required to label their ingredients as specified by the regulatory board. All companies selling personal care products in Europe, and most recently in Canada, are required by law to list their ingredients according to the INCI.
All ingredients are listed by their quantity of presence—greatest to least—in the product. Due to its full ingredient disclosure policy, the INCI standards strive to help you, the consumer, make informed and healthy purchases, helping you avoid any ingredients to which you may be allergic.
According to the INCI labeling standards, all fragrances—which for us represent all natural essential oils—are prefaced and denoted by* (From Natural Essential Oils).
According to the European Union Mediation Committee's 2005 resolution, 26 fragrances—present in over 10ppm (parts per million)—found to cause allergies in sensitive individuals, must be declared on all personal care ingredient listings. These fragrances are listed by their individual components according to their chemical names. As a result, Rose Oil, for instance, which contains over 400 components, many of which have not even been discovered, is no longer listed as "Rose Oil" on the packaging, but by its individual parts, suchas "Geraniol."
While only 1-3% of the population has been found to have any allergy to a fragrance, this regulation has been implemented in order to inform those consumers will allergies of all ingredients that make up a product. Most often, a person is not allergic to the complete fragrance / essential oil, such as Rose Oil, but rather its components.
We use all natural essential oils. By EU law, these natural ingredients are listed under the same name and designations as their synthetic counterparts, regardless of their origin. Natural essential oils—particularly when blended with other essential oils, rather than in isolated form—are generally well-tolerated by the skin and provide numerous physical and psychological benefits.
In homeopathic medicines and tinctures, alcohol is traditionally used to draw out the vital life forces of a plant to create a botanical extract in a specific concentration. Alcohol is also used as a natural preservative in our formulations. We use organic grain alcohol, which is naturally derived from fermented plant sugars. We do not use Methyl or Propyl alcohol—also known as rubbing alcohol.
Traditionally, homoeopathic and herbal tinctures were made using a water and alcohol (ethanol) mixture. This stems from a time when herbs were extracted by soaking them in wine or spirits. Water and ethanol mixes are still the most common extraction method for tinctures and are now standard pharmaceutical practice.
One important reason ethanol is used in the production of Weleda remedies is that ethanol is able to extract more active ingredients than other substances used for extraction, such as glycerin or water. With a wider range of active ingredients present, the end product is more effective.
Another advantage of using alcohol for tinctures is that it acts as a preservative - bacteria, yeasts and molds generally do not grow in an ethanol concentration of approxmately 20% or greater. Another advantage of ethanol is that once it is ingested, it loses its preservative effect; therefore, it does not damage beneficial intestinal flora.
The small amounts of ethanol taken in when using homoeopathic or herbal products are generally recognized as harmless. For example, the standard 10 drop (or 0.5 ml) dose contains 2 drops (80 mg) of ethanol. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that a newborn (6.6 lb) baby, should be given no more than 3 ml of ethanol in a single dose. This is about 30 times greater than the amount in a dose of herbal or homeopathic products. In comparison, an average slice of bread contains between 100 mg and 200 mg of ethanol.
Plants oils, derived from seeds, nuts and fruits, gently care for and nourish your skin. Unlike petroleum-based mineral oils, plant oils help support and balance your skin's moisture and oxygen levels and most closely match your skin's natural make up. Your body can easily use the fatty acids and beneficial properties within each oil to stay beautiful and healthy.
Glycerin is a threefold alcohol found in every fat. We use glycerin derived from the coconut or palm kernel oil. This ingredeint is produced through the saponification process of vegetable oil and soap. It regulates the absorption and release of water, softening and smoothing the skin.
Lanolin is a wax derived from the wool of sheep. The process of extracting this wool does not harm the sheep in any way, as the shearing of wool is a natural and necessary process. Weleda uses the highest quality lanolin from sheep in Australia and New Zealand. It is cleaned to remove any pesticide residues. This beneficial ingredient contains natural fats that give it an affinity to the skin, making it an ideal moisturizer. We use lanolin to nourish and protect the skin.
Magnesium aluminum silicate (fuller's earth) is a naturally occurring mineral. Its name is the standard label applied to natural earth of various origins. Other commonly known names for this ingredient are hectorite, kaolin and white clay. This clay serves as a natural thickener commonly used to hold ingredients together, providing a moisture-binding effect. The molecules of magnesium aluminum silicate are too large to be absorbed through the skin, and it is a dermatologically well-tolerated material. This clay helps to remove impurities from the skin when used in our skincare products and it works as a gentle polisher in our toothpastes.
Weleda currently does not carry out any animal testing in the manufacture, development or quality control of its natural and organic cosmetics, nor does it commission such testing. The company is fundamentally opposed to the use of animal testing.
Nonetheless, product safety is, of course, paramount. Most of the raw materials Weleda uses have been utilized for many years, and their tolerability is therefore well-documented. Before introducing new products to the market, Weleda carries out extensive in-use studies on volunteer subjects. The formulas are subject to toxicological testing in order to ensure their safety, tolerability and efficacy.
As a manufacturer of natural and organic cosmetics with high ethical standards, Weleda has a particular responsibility that it takes extremely seriously. It will continue to strive to avoid animal testing.
Weleda consistently works to bring consumers the highest quality and safest products, formulated with the purest, natural ingredients. Some people have a digestive intolerance to gluten, a protein that occurs naturally in wheat and other grains. It is unlikely for a person with gluten intolerance to have a reaction to a skincare product, since gluten can only be absorbed through the gastrointestinal tract. However, some people do have wheat allergies that may cause them to have skin sensitivities. Many Weleda skin-care products and medicines contain alcohol derived from organic wheat, and some products contain wheat germ oil. We heat and distill our alcohol and filter our wheat germ oil to remove allergy-causing proteins, but we cannot guarantee that all of the residues are removed. Therefore, if you have gluten intolerance or wheat allergies, we recommend that you consult with your medical practitioner before using any of our products containing alcohol, malt extract or wheat germ oil, as indicated on the ingredient label.
As for our medicines, many of our tablets contain wheat starch in a presence of up to 25 mg per tablet. In regards to associated digestive concerns for those suffering from Celiac Disease, according to the German Celiac Disease Society, after washing out the albumen fraction from the wheat flour, the resulting pure wheat starch—containing less than .05% residual nitrogen (the so-called primary wheat starch)—may be declared as being gluten-free. However, as noted above, we recommend that you consult with your medical practitioner before using any of our tablets.
The Homeopathic Pharmacopeia of the U.S. (HPUS) regulations specify the Rx and OTC potencies for each medicine. For some remedies, such as those developed for cancerous or cardiovascular conditions, the treatment and usage indications mandate an Rx status.
We employ only the safest materials for its packaging to protect and preserve both the product formulation and the environment. In addition, we have designed our unique packaging for easy use and durability. We utilize three types of materials: Glass, food grade PET and PE/PP (plastic) and Aluminum tubes with a protective coating. All of our packaging is recyclable.
Glass and aluminum tubes are used to package some of our premier formulations due to the pure ingredient composition of the products. Natural substances, such as essential oils, are "living," making them extremely volatile. Both glass and aluminum do not react with the formulations within, eliminating oxygenation of the products. All aluminum tubes are free of nickel and are lined with a protective resin to avoid any interaction between the product and the aluminum material.
We use recyclable and food grade PET and PE/PP plastic to package some of our products, such as baby products, body lotions and body washes to ensure safe and easy use of these products. The plastic materials are shatterproof, making them especially ideal for use in the shower and by parents for their babies.
The best way to store our products is away from direct sunlight in a tepid environment that is neither extremely cold or hot. It is also important that all products be firmly sealed after each use. We recommend that you store the products under these conditions to protect the pure nature of the formulations.
Our skincare products have an average shelf life of 2-1/2 years. Most of our medicines have a shelf life of at least 3 years. Please see our product packaging for individual product information and expiration dates.
We do not add fluoride to our oral care products, as an excessive quantity of fluoride can cause health risks. Fluoride is naturally taken in through mineral water and other sources. Thus, additional quantities are often not needed. However, if extra fluoride is necessary to improve health, we believe this should be determined and prescribed by your health care practitioner.
Our Calendula Toothpaste is free of peppermint oil, making it a favorite among homeopathic practitioners. In lieu of peppermint, this formula is flavored with organic fennel oil and licorice.
Ratanhia Mouthwash Concentrate is a refreshing pick-me-up perfect for anytime of the day and is ideal to clean and soothe your teeth and gums. To use this essential formula, shake a few drops into a glass of water and rinse or gargle. This mouthwash is highly concentrated, as one bottle makes up to one-half gallon. We recommend using cold water for a refreshing mouthwash and warm water for a sore throat gargle.
Nearly all of our formulations are ideal for the pampering and nourishing care of Mothers. Weleda's Pregnancy line—including Pregnancy Body Oil and Nursing Tea—is specifically formulated for mothers-to-be and mothers. Pregnancy Body Oil smoothes the skin and helps to avoid the development of stretch marks on the stomach, thighs, bottom and breasts. Nursing Tea, a certified organic herbal tea, also supports healthy lactation and soothes the digestion. Other beneficial products include: Calciodoron AM & PM, which work together in the morning and evening to promote calcium absorption and prevent inadequate lactation; Calendula Ointment, which helps to treat minor skin irritation and rashes and is ideal for treating sensitive areas such as the nipples and Foot Balm, which helps to soothe the feet and alleviate feelings of heaviness and discomfort. Itchy, dry and increased sensitivity are common skin conditions during pregnancy. Almond Facial Care is ideal for the care of especially sensitive facial skin. It is important to keep the skin well moisturized with creams and lotions to protect the skin from irritation and to keep it nourished.
Weleda Nursing Tea supports healthy lactation* and soothes the digestion of both mother and child. This effective formula is 100% certified organic and caffeine free, and the tea bags are unbleached. It is recommended that you drink up to three cups per day, beginning after birth and throughout your nursing period.
*This statement has not been approved by the FDThis product is not intended to treat, cure or prevent any disease.
Calendula, also known as Marigold, is renowned for its comforting, soothing and antibacterial properties. Weleda's Calendula is grown organically and biodynamically and is harvested by hand in the Weleda Medicinal Plant Gardens in Europe. As a result of the gently nourishing and warming properties of this flower, it is ideal for use on babies, children and all other delicate and sensitive skin types.
We recommend using Weleda Baby Calendula Oil for daily care, warmth and protection. Massage over your baby's skin after bathing and as needed. This oil is also ideal for a therapeutic infant massage. Calendula Lotion can also be used as a convenient daily care moisturizer. It will help keep the skin soft, supple and protected, and it is easily absorbed by the skin. Both are featured in flip-top, ergonomic and recyclable packaging for safe, single-handed use. Calendula Baby Cream may also be used on very dry and chapped skin such as the hands and elbows.
Weleda Baby Calendula Face Cream may be used on the face as a gently soothing and protective moisturizer. Apply only as much as the skin can fully absorb and massage gently into the skin.
We recommend Weleda Baby Calendula Oil for cleansing the diaper are. Then, apply Calendula Baby Cream for daily care. This gentle, soothing cream helps create a protective barrier, while allowing the skin to breathe. If a rash or irritation is or has been present, use Calendula Diaper Care instead. It contains zinc oxide and is perfect for supporting the healing of a rash.
Weleda Baby Calendula Oil is the best choice for a soothing and warming massage. This gentle oil contains pure sweet almond oil and fine essential oils, and it is naturally free of mineral oils. The flip-top, ergonomic and recyclable packaging makes it ideal for safe, single-handed use.
Weleda Baby Calendula Shampoo & Body Wash is ideal to cleanse and nourish your baby's or child's fine hair and delicate scalp. Formulated with plant-based, sugar derived foaming and cleansing agents, it forms the softest lather for gentle cleansing and care.
Our Baby Calendula Care line has been specifically formulated for the delicate skin of babies. Therefore, it is also recommended for all sensitive skin types. Calendula Lotion and Calendula Oil, for instance, are both nourishing formulas ideal for the daily nourishing care of all skin types.
The best time to use our body oils is when the skin is still moist — ideally after a bath or shower. When the skin is damp, it is able to draw in more of the skin-softening benefits and nourishment encapsulated within. Body oils may be used as regular, everyday body moisturizers or for a massage.
Our body oils will not clog your pores. We use only the purest oils that are easily absorbed by the skin, such as organic sesame seed, organic olive fruit, organic jojoba and sweet almond oils. No mineral or petroleum oils are used. Our body oils leave your skin feeling soft and rejuvenated.
Our body oils are the perfect choice for treating very dry skin. Our Wild Rose Body Oil and Sea Buckthorn Body Oil are especially good choices due to their nourishing properties. Body oils help to maintain the skin's moisture levels and health between applications. While body lotions are also moisturizing, they tend to evaporate faster because they contain water. Thus, when the skin is extremely dry, we suggest using one of our body oils. For optimal protection of dry skin on the body and face we recommend Skin Food and Everon® Face Balm.
All of our oils may be used for any kind of massage: foot massage, hand massage, neck massage, a relaxing massage or a sports massage. Arnica Massage Oil is the preferred choice by thousands of massage therapists throughout the world. We also suggest Lavender Relaxing Body Oil for a calming massage before bedtime. All of our body oils are rich in plant oils, which support the elasticity of the skin.
Our Almond Facial Care line is specifically formulated for sensitive skin, including rosacea skin conditions. In addition, we recommend several other premier facial care products for sensitive skin conditions, depending upon the specific skin type and the season of the year. Please visit our Facial Care pages for more information.
Our Iris Facial Care line is ideal for all skin conditions, including oily skin types. In addition, we recommend several other premier facial care products for oily skin conditions, depending upon the specific skin type and the season of the year. Please visit our Facial Care pages for more information.
Our Wild Rose Facial Care line is ideal for the intensive nourishment of prematurely aging skin. In addition, we recommend several other premier facial care products for dry skin conditions, depending upon the level of dryness and season of the year. Please visit our Facial Care pages for more information.
Our Almond Facial Oil gently, yet effectively, removes eye makeup. Apply to a slightly damp cotton pad and pat over the eye are Almond Facial Oil also nourishes the eye are Wild Rose Intensive Eye Cream is specifically formulated for use on the delicate eye area to strengthen the skin and tissues and reduce puffiness. This light, fragrance-free eye cream is suggested for use both day and night.
Our Calendula Diaper Care works as an excellent spot-treatment due to its active ingredient of Zinc Oxide, which promotes healing. Extracts of organic and Biodynamic® grown calendula and organic chamomile reduce redness and inflammation.
Yes. Our natural hair care line was developed with the assistance of holistic hair care experts and with Weleda's deep understanding of how natural ingredients support health and beauty. We utilize mild, coconut-based surfactants to provide gentle cleansing while plant extracts revitalize the scalp to promote healthy hair. As is true with all of our products, these newest additions are free of heavy silicones, harsh sulfates and synthetic preservatives and fragrances. Also, they are all certified natural by the European organization NaTrue.

CBNNews.com - JERUSALEM, Israel - Israeli defense officials reported an increase in acts of terrorism by Arabs affiliated with Palestinian Authority (PA) President Mahmoud Abbas's Fatah faction.
Last month, Fatah members smuggled a 120-pound bomb into a mall in the northern port city of Haifa, aided by Hezbollah terrorists to revenge the death of Imad Mughniyeh, according to a senior PA official quoted in the Israeli daily Haaretz.
Mughniyeh, the group's deputy commander, was killed by a car bomb in Damascus in February 2008. Hezbollah blamed Israel for his death, vowing to take revenge on Israeli Jews and Jewish institutions worldwide.
In a separate incident in the Jordan Valley in March, two Israeli policemen were murdered when they stopped to help Arab motorists pretending to change a flat tire.
Last week, a 13-year-old Israeli from the community of Bat Ayin was bludgeoned to death by an ax-wielding Arab from a nearby village.
According to defense officials, Iranian-sponsored terror groups, including Hezbollah in Lebanon and Hamas in Syria, are providing training and funding for Fatah-affiliated Israeli Arabs.

From Barnes & Noble
The Barnes & Noble ReviewCulture, community, and elegant brownstones are just a few of the things featured in Bryan Collier's Uptown. This imaginative book gives readers a very personal tour of Harlem through the eyes of a young boy who lives in the diverse neighborhood.
Travel uptown on the Metro-North train and have a bite to eat -- how about chicken and waffles? The young narrator admits that "it seems like a weird combination, but it works." Strolling on 125th Street results in a cornucopia of shoppers with a vibrant blend of personalities. History also plays a strong part in the fabric of Harlem -- from the roots of jazz to gossip at the barbershop.
The collage illustrations featured in the book are a perfect match for the spare text. Bold colors and watercolor pictures wonderfully illustrate the diverse and wondrous culture in this amazing community. Kids who have heard of Harlem but aren't able to make the visit will find this book particularly enlightening as an ideal introduction and a wonderful journey. Those of us who know of Harlem's wonder will smile contently at Uptown's spectacular vision and praise the heartfelt work of Collier.

I guess I must be asleep at the wheel sometimes as I did not see the direction ahead of time some of this thread was going...and here I thought it was about the advantage of formal vs informal learning when learning to sail.
Bubble you like many of us have come aboard SN to increase your knowledge and skills with sailing. When this forum no longer meets those goals with you then it is time to move on to something more aligned with your goals.
I have met some very nice people in this forum....learned some great tips...shared some of my experiences....and yes even laughed a few times.
I have once and will a second time host the Sail-Net rendezvous at our club as I have met some fellow comrades on the Chesapeake and hope to meet more. (last time Jeff H, t37chef, Eryka, Sapperwhite, Craigtoo and others came and they were nice normal people) Hopefully this time I get to meet more. I want to meet some of our New England members when we travel up to Long Island every summer.

I also have met some total assholes here . People who are know it alls,,,degrading,,. self important and let you know it all the time. I even think there are a few members who are obviously frustrated by their life situations either at home or work and use this forum to bully and degrade others with their opinions because the are not the "boss" of anything else in their life and feel they can be here.
When this Forum becomes filled with more people from the second group...then it is time to move on. If you have the threshold to ignore the assholes...then stay. You cant change others....just your own situations.
I have this rule...never let other people problems or deficiencies affect my choices,,,and never get in a pissing contest with a skunk.

US Navy Dog Tags
The roots for US Navy dog tags as a use for personal military identification, as well as dog tags for other military branches, dates back to the Civil War. During that time, soldiers would pin notes inside their uniform with their personal information such as name and address. Dog tags first issued by the US Navy were oval in shape and produced by using a combination of mainly nickel and copper. One side of the tag was used to etch the right index finger print of the enlisted. The reverse side contained the individual's personal information along with the navy's initials – USN. (Continued below)
Authentic military dog tags, such as those issued by the US Navy, can be purchased from the Armed Forces History Museum in Largo, FL using the link below. They are also available for purchase in the museum's store.
(Continued from above)
Additional Information on US Navy Dog Tags
Dog tags worn by Naval officers would include their initials and surname and their date of appointment. For the enlisted, the dog tag contained similar information such as initials and surname, but would include the date they enlisted along with their date of birth.
After WWI, dog tags were no longer a standard issue in the Navy and would only be reinstated during a time of war or other type of emergency. The issuance of dog tags could also be made mandatory by a person of authority. However, at the onset of the WWII, dog tags were once again reinstated and became a standard US Navy issue. At that time, the information provided on the dog tag was revised. US Navy dog tags from WWII included the individual's name, his service number, his blood type and the letter "T" would be noted if he had been vaccinated for tetanus. USN continued to be part of the information provided and the fingerprint of the right index finger continued to be etched on the reverse side. In time, the etched finger print was removed from the tags.
Current US Navy issue of dog tags includes surname (followed by the individual's initials), their service number, branch of service (USN), their blood type and religious affiliation (which was optional and up to the individual). Today, US Navy dog tags continue to be a part of standard military issue.

Dr.�Cynthia Webster is an expert in canine and feline liver disease and a board-certified small animal medicine internist. At the Cummings School, she leads the veterinary Liver Study Group, an umbrella organization of the Comparative Gastroenterology Society. Her research interests include how the liver regulates its ability to survive after toxic insults, especially during times when bile flow is attenuated.
Dr.�Webster grew up in a small town in western Massachusetts. She says she was drawn to comparative medicine so that she could one day not only care for dogs and cats, but also solve problems in human medicine. After attending Cornell University's veterinary school and doing post-graduate work in liver disease at Tufts University School of Medicine,�Dr.�Webster now has a joint appointment that allows her to do just that: she teaches gastrointestinal and liver pharmacology, pathology and medicine to�DVM�students at the Cummings School and lectures graduate students at Tufts Sackler School in Boston.
It is hard to not be a great doctor in this environment,
�Dr.�Webster says of the Cummings School.�At the Foster Hospital for Small Animals, you have so many brilliant minds to work with and experts in every discipline. I love being able to do biomedical research one day, work with owners and their pets the next, and through it all still have the ability to train the next generation of veterinarians.
Dr.�Webster lives in Grafton with her husband and son. She is active in the Grafton public schools and organizes Tufts' outreach efforts—ranging from science lectures to career days. She admits to being a cat lady and has two cats at home she adores.

Modeling of heat transfer in wall-cooled tubular reactors
Koning, G.W. and Westerterp, K.R. (1999) Modeling of heat transfer in wall-cooled tubular reactors. Chemical Engineering Science, 54 (13-14). pp. 2527-2533. ISSN 0009-2509
Restricted to UT campus only : Request a copy 328kB |
Abstract: | In a pilot scale wall-cooled tubular reactor, temperature profiles have been measured with and without reaction. As a model reaction oxidation of carbon monoxide in air over a copper chromite catalyst has been used. The kinetics of this reaction have been determined separately in two kinetic reactors with internal recycle. A pseudo-homogeneous reactor model without axial dispersion is used for the description of the temperature profiles inside the reactor. The heat transport parameters λrad,eff and αw have been optimized to give optimum agreement between experimental and calculated temperature profiles. Preliminary experiments showed that the occurrence of reaction seems to increase the overall heat transfer coefficient. The pseudo-homogeneous reactor model is allowed to be used, but is not adequate for the description of the temperature profiles inside the reactor during reaction. |

The Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) today is extending into an ever wider field of applications, not only in academic research, but also in various industries. Associated with this trend, samples requiring observation and analysis also cover a wide spectrum of applications from one to another. The S-3700N has been developed with these widely diversified applications in mind. In its standard configuration it comes with a secondary electron detector, a five-segment backscattered electron (BSE) detector and a variable pressure (VP) mode.
This allows observation of most samples in their natural state, or wet condition, without the need for metal coating which had in the past been required for conventional SEM. The S-3700N has a huge sample chamber and can accommodate samples as large as 300mm in diameter and 110mm high. It has many accessory ports for the wide range of applications today's microscopists require. These accessories include EDX, WDX, EBSD, Chamber scope,cooling stage and so on. This versatile and flexible system will deal with your needs well into the future.

Editors' Review
+Gtasks isn't flashy or full of breathtaking features, but it will effectively keep you on task. The app sacrifices a lot of the connectivity of competitors to make it easy to save, share, and get reminders of the things you need to do every day. If you don't need many of the add-ons that Astrid and other to-do apps offer you, this app is worth exploring.
Though Gtasks syncs directly to Google's services, it seems unrelated to Google's own Task app. Instead, this app lets you create a task and share it to your Google account, as well as invite others to join you in it. In addition to setting a date for the task, Gtasks lets you create a location, due date, and reminders as often as you like. The app shows you all of your tasks in a sleek, minimalist menu that is easy to read and organize. The built-in calendar is the best-looking part of the app, as it looks like it was made specifically for Android Ice Cream Sandwich and higher. The premium version of the app claims to offer more features like custom backgrounds and a pattern lock to secure your data, which might be worth it if you crave more customization options.
Fans of the minimalist approach will love that Gtasks offers stress-free task management that only takes a second or two to set up. While it won't wow you the way Evernote, Astrid, or other memory-helpers can with online syncing and other goodies, it still merits a trial run. The fact that it can attach itself to your Google account is worthwhile enough on its own.

Solo's Husband in Jail, Jerramy Stevens Arrested
LOS ANGELES (LALATE) – Hope Solo's husband is in jail. Jerramy Stevens has been taken into custody, officials confirm to news. Stevens was arrested today and remains in Hillsborough County Jail in Tampa, Fla.
Hope Solo met with news reporters earlier today as she prepared for a an International Friendly match against Ireland. When asked how she was, she said her life is "great". But at the time of that interview, Solo's new husband was in custody.
Debbie Carter, a spokesperson for the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office, confirms to USA Today that Stevens was arrested for probation violation. The arrest warrant was issued by the Department of Corrections. Stevens has been on probation since 2010.
On November 15, Solo surprised news by marrying Stevens hours after his other arrest. Stevens was arrested for alleged domestic violence assault against Solo. But he was not charged.
At the time, ESPN reported that "documents, a police officer found Stevens, 'who appeared to be hiding, lying between the bed and the wall in an upstairs bedroom.' "Today Solo told news "My life is great… My life is happy."
Hope Solo, Jerramy Stevens

Studies such as these are good news for people with morbid obesity, many of whom have tried and failed to lose weight without surgery, said Dr. Scott Shikora, president of the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery.
"For people who have type 2 diabetes related to their weight, other than bariatric surgery, there are no other treatments that put diabetes into remission," Shikora said.
Yet some patients, their families and even physicians fear bariatric surgery, remembering some highly publicized complications and deaths during the procedure's early days, Shikora said.
"The field has dramatically improved and is much more advanced than it was 20 years ago," Shikora said.
Shikora and DeMaria lay credit for that improvement on the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Centers of Excellence program, which sets standards for training and patient care at the 350 hospitals and for the 650 surgeons granted the status.

I dont know exactly what is considered a blog and I certainly don't know how to do screenshots, but I do know what my experience has been with online casinos. I started playing a few years ago at 7Sultans and I won a good amount, although, I spent a good amount too. But I was hooked!!
From there I played at all fortune lounge casinos. I have lost alot of money, and I have won a good bit, but that was years ago.
I have not won for the past couple of years at any casino I deposit at. It's fun to play the coupon codes and all that but, man, what bs to have to go thru. I deposit on a regular basis at Palace of Chance. I never ever win anything when I deposit, but I win enough to keep playing when I get a free chip. How bizzare is that? I think they know.....It's funny as hell because I will tell myself, they know!!! And then I can never cash out because I can never do the play thru requirements!!!!
I have been banned at a few casinos because of playing codes and not depositing, but who in their right mind would deposit at every single casino that gives out free codes? It is impossible to win at most of these casinos and we all know it, so let's be honest here....
I do have some places that I like and Paradise8 is one of them. The customer service is nice and I get emails all the time, even to just say hi. I deposit there and I keep depositing at POC, although I am so ready to quit POC because of their "no two chips in a row" stupidity, maybe I am the one with the stupidity mentality because I keep on doing the deposits!!!
I only live about 10 miles from a land based casino in my area and I have only been there a few times, mainly because it is "no smoking". When I gamble I like to smoke and have a few drinks if I so choose to!!! I like the comforts of my own home and do what I want when I want.
All I can really say is that sometimes lady luck comes my way, not so often though. But it is so worth it to try, when I can afford it, because the thrill is so very exciting. I guess this is my blog. Good luck to all who play and one day the ship will dock!!!

The concept of assistive technology is moving away from adopting the most appropriate devices to overcome the limitations of users, to the designing and setting up of total environments in which people can live, supported by suitable services and additional support devices integrated within the environment. These two perspectives are deeply intertwined, both from technological and social points of view, and the relationship between them currently represent the primary challenge for the field of assistive technology. This publication covers the proceedings of the 10th European Conference of the Association for the Advancement of Assistive Technology in Europe (AAATE), the organization which stimulates the advancement of assistive technology for the benefit of people with disabilities, including elderly people.

Legal eagle Wendy Long for the Gillibrand seat? (with video)
Still percolating from last week: New York Republicans may have a female candidate to consider fielding against the only woman in statewide elected office.
Wendy Long, a conservative-oriented attorney whose involvements over the years included high-profile opposition to the 2009 confirmation of Sonia Sotomayor to the U.S. Supreme Court, emerged last week among the names in the still-fluid GOP selection of an opponent for Democratic Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand.
Below is a video of Long making a palpably disciplined case against Sotomayor's philosophy as reflected in some of the judge's previous public statements and predicting Sotomayor would not have a great influence on her colleagues.
As of Monday , Nassau Comptroller George Maragos remains the sole declared candidate for the nomination. Marc Cenedella, chief executive of job-search Web company The Ladders, decided not to run. Daniel Rubino, a GOP financial businessman from Westchester (and contributor to Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo) is believed in party circles to be forgoing a candidacy due to a family illness.
If Long, 51, makes the race -- and state Conservative Party chairman Michael Long (no relation) believes she'd do so only if "all the stars line up" -- comparisons to Gillibrand, 45, will be interesting. Both attended college at Dartmouth and went on to highly rated law schools and prestigious law firms -- Long at Kirkland & Ellis, Gillibrand at Boies, Schiller & Flexner, and earlier, Davis Polk & Wardwell -- where coincidentally Wendy Long's husband, Arthur S. Long, is a partner.
Wendy Long, of Manhattan, a trustee of Mount St. Mary College in Newburgh, served as counsel to the Judicial Confirmation Network, a conservative judicial watchdog. Earlier she clerked for U.S. Court of Appeals Judge Ralph Winter and for Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas and was press secretary for two GOP senators, William Armstrong of Colorado and Gordon Humphrey of New Hampshire.
She has had reportedly cordial meetings with Michael Long and with state GOP chairman Edward Cox. Her decision depends partly on fundraising and family considerations, sources said. She wasn't available for comment. And one Republican staffer added: "There may be a couple more candidates to come forward."
A 2009 interview with Long in which she gives her perspective on 'judicial activism'.

InterGenetics reports that it has released the first genetic-based breast cancer risk test that incorporates both personal history and gene-based information to determine a woman's future sporadic breast cancer risk.
Opaldia will release OncoVue® in the U.K. and Ireland under an exclusive agreement. The OncoVue test has also been released in the U.S. under an FDA approved Investigational Device Exemption study conducted by InterGenetics.
"OncoVue has undergone over seven years of research, and the genetic information for this test came from the testing of over 8,000 women with and without breast cancer from five geographic regions of the United States, giving us the support to introduce the test to an international market," comments Craig Shimasaki, Ph.D., InterGenetics' CEO and president.
The OncoVue test involves answering a medical history questionnaire and then using a mouthwash and depositing the fluid into a tube. In the InterGenetics' laboratories, the DNA is analyzed using the OncoVue CombiSNP™ technology that looks at combinations of genes to diagnose women with sporadic breast cancer. The OncoVue report shows a woman her risk assessment in three stages of her life: premenopause, perimenopause, and postmenopause.
Policy proposals to address the growing global problem of fake medicines include a global agreement, similar to the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control, and stricter national laws to prosecute those who knowingly sell counterfeit medicines. Do you think these steps will be successful?

Assistant coaches need action
Jan 25, 2008, 1:27 AM EDT
Now that Jim Fassel has been put on the back burner, perhaps permanently, there is a sense that the Redskins are going to deliberate further on their choice for Joe Gibbs' replacement. It seems likely that a decision will not be made this week. There is talk—unconfirmed by the Redskins, of course—that Dan Snyder may wait until after the Super Bowl is over and have a chat with the Giants' Steve Spagnuolo. The members of Redskins Nation, their finger weary and voices cracking from typing and speaking so much anti-Fassel rhetoric over the past 48 hours, seem to be fine with the break, too. Let things settle down for a while, seems to be the general sentiment. It seems like a great idea. Retrench, revise the search criteria, take a deep breath, and go back at it next week. It may seem like a great idea. But it's not. It's a terrible idea not because we're all tired of waiting or because the reporters who cover the team just want to be able to go home for a weekend. That's irrelevant in the long term. Suffering long-term damage here are the careers of the twenty-some men who form the Redskins coaching staff. They don't know if they have jobs for this coming season. A new coach is likely to bring major changes to the coaching staff and even if Gregg Williams gets the gig he is likely to want at least to tweak the staff. On top of that, every day that goes by means that assistant coaching positions around the league—and around college football for that matter—are being filled. The likes of Bill Lazor, Jerry Gray and others are hearing the sounds of doors closing every single day. To be sure, most of them are under contract for 2008 and even if they are let go they will be paid. That takes care of the bills in '08. But while sitting out a year and taking a long vacation at the beach and puttering around the yard in the fall might sound nice to a lot of us, it can be career poison for a football coach. In a highly competitive business where there are many more applicants than jobs the old saying "out of sight, out of mind" is a chilling phrase to these coaches. If the answer to "what have you done lately" is "spent a month fishing in Florida and watched every one of both my kids' soccer games", you're not going to impress an potential employer in this business. The flip side of this is that the Redskins will find a very small pool of new assistants to hire if they don't conclude their coaching search until mid-February. Even at this moment the logistics of finding new coaches with every other head coaching vacancy now filled might make the promotion of Williams, which would entail minimal coaching turnover, the only sensible course of action. We've seen the problems with finding assistants the past few days with the dramas with Jim Zorn, Rex Ryan, and John Ramsdell. Such issues will only get worse and worse as each day goes by. Whether it's GW or Fassel or Meeks or Schwartz or any other mystery candidates, the decision needs to be made. Not only is leaving the staff twisting in the wind just plain the wrong thing to do, it's bad for business. You don't want to get a reputation as an organization that will do that. Make the call, Dan. It's the right thing to do.
