Three of the five variants detected showed bioinformatic predictions of aberrant splicing, creating
Considering the potential branch points, a significant variation between mutant and wild type motifs sequences were detected for two SVs. The g.224A>G SV, localized deeper in intron 19, create a branch point site broken between 219–225 nt. The g.360C>T SV, localized at the end of intron 19, create a putative new site between 357–363 nt that can activate a cryptic splice site, probably in the exon 20 (
The five SVs identified in this work were used for the haplotype determination. We detected four haplotypes in normal samples and six in cat mammary lesions (
All variant haplotypes were submitted to GenBank and five accession numbers were provided: HM1968478 (haplotype 2); HM196848 (haplotype 3); HM196849 (haplotype 4); HM196850 (haplotype 5) and HM196851 (haplotype 6).
All the 41 cat mammary lesions analyzed were clinical and pathologically characterized (
We observed an outstanding number of correlations that can be interrelated with each other. As example: lymph node invasion
In summary, it was possible to highlight important biologically correlations. A strong positive correlation was observed between the mammary lesion pathological grade and the clinical outcome grade. It means that at the same time as the lesion malignity increases, the clinical outcome also worsens (
In order to test the association between SVs and haplotypes with the mammary tumor clinicopathological features, we allocated the presence or absence of each sequence variant with each classifier trait and for each cat mammary lesion analyzed (cf.
The statistics analysis showed that the g.153T>G SV trend towards an association with the benign neoplastic lesions (χ2
Taking into account only the primary mammary lesions (benign and malignant), the association test between haplotypes frequency with primary tumor size and with the number of masses (multiple or simple), point out to a putative association that was further scrutinized. For this evaluation we compared the genotypic haplotype frequency for the two classifier traits (

It is known that splicing changes can lead to protein splice isoforms, namely the appearance of truncated proteins (already shown for the human erbB-2 protein) that have an active role in mammary tumors [
The SVs detected were also analyzed for haplotype determination in order to genetically evaluate the population under study. The cat mammary lesion population showed more genomic sequence variations (64%; five SVs) than the normal one (56%; three SVs). The five SVs pairwise linkage disequilibrium analysis allowed the identification of six haplotypes in the total population, of which four haplotypes were observed in the normal population (
Our data unveil several linear correlations between clinicopathological traits. A strong positive correlation was observed between the mammary lesion pathological grade and the clinical outcome grade. The cases with no ovary-hysterectomy presence showed a strong correlation with hormonal treatment presence, and also with higher primary lesions mass number, lower detection of necrosis and lower grade of nuclear/cellular pleomorphism. All of these clinicopathological correlations are known to be in concordance with occurrence of less malignant lesions. Also in agreement were the Pearson correlation results, which also detected a nearly-significant relationship between cases with no ovary-hysterectomy presence and lower levels of malignity (hyperplasic and neoplastic benign lesions). In fact, fibroadenomatous hyperplasia is usually seen in young, sexually intact queens at the time of puberty and also in cats receiving prolonged hormonal therapy (megestrol acetate or medroxyprogesterone acetate) used as contraceptives in females [
In order to recognize a potential association between the SVs and haplotypes, some clinicopathologic staging traits of all the 41 cat mammary lesions analyzed in the present work were clinically and pathologically characterized (
The multiple mammary lesion masses in cats are quite frequent [
In this study we used 22 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues (FFPET) and 19 frozen samples, corresponding to a total of 41 mammary lesions obtained from 40 different cats (with an exception for metastasis samples;
The frozen samples were kindly provided by "Trás-os-Montes Veterinary Hospital" and the "UPVet Small Animal Clinics of the Institute of Biomedical Sciences Abel Salazar, University of Porto (ICBAS-UP)". All FFPET samples belong to a collection of the Veterinary Pathology Laboratory of ICBAS-UP and to the Institute of Molecular Pathology and Immunology of the University of Porto (IPATIMUP).
All tissues were evaluated by pathological procedures. Cat mammary lesion biopsies correspond to a heterogeneous group of samples (non-neoplastic, malignant and benign neoplastic lesions). The histological classification was undertaken in accordance with the Misdorp and collaborators (1999) classification for cat mammary tumors [
All experimental work was conducted according to ethical procedures approved (EC/12-04/POCI/CVT/62940/2004; approval date from 02/12/2004 and beginning of the study in 01/07/2005) and was carried out in accordance with best practice and the laws of the countries involved.
The genomic DNA (gDNA) extraction from the FFPET was performed according to the protocol previously described by Santos and collaborators [
The gDNA extracted from all samples was analyzed by agarose gel electrophoresis (1% agarose gel, stained with ethidium bromide) in order to evaluate its integrity. Afterwards, the quantity and quality were measured in a NanoDrop ND-1000 spectrophotometer (NanoDrop Technologies).
This study focuses on cat
The PCR amplifications made using gDNA from frozen and FFPET samples were performed in a termocycler (T-personal, Biometra) with standard reaction mixtures. The cycling conditions used were: initial denaturation of 5 min at 94 °C, followed by 30 cycles (denaturation for 1 min at 94 °C, annealing for 45 s at 50 °C and extension for 1 min at 72 °C) and one final extension step of 10 min at 72 °C. The PCR products were analyzed by electrophoresis in 1.5% agarose gel, stained with ethidium bromide and visualized under ultraviolet light.
The fragments obtained were further sequenced in both directions, applying the same set of primers used during PCR amplification. The sequences were analyzed in Vector NTI 10.3.0 software (Invitrogen Life Technologies) using the ContigExpress and Align modules.
A search of the two final DNA reference sequences was performed using the bioinformatic resource BLAST (Basic Local Alignment Search Tool) of NCBI and Ensembl genome browsers. The predicted protein sequence was done with the NCBI bioinformatic resource BLASTP 2.2.21. The search for
Sequence variants identification nomenclature is in accordance with the standard nomenclature recommendations of the Human Genome Variation Society [
The database Human Splicing Finder (version 2.4) was used to predict the effect of each sequence variant on mRNA splicing sites (splicing donor/acceptor sites and branch point sequences) and to accurately predict disruption of splicing enhancer or silencer sites [
For genomic SVs detected by experimental analysis, the allele frequency deviations from Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) were evaluated by Chi-square test (significant
Pairwise linkage disequilibrium was estimated by a D' absolute value for all sequence variants. Based in linkage disequilibrium and Chi-square tests, haplotype frequencies were estimated for each group (normal and mammary lesions) and for the total population. This analysis was performed in the SNP and Variation Suite™ 7 (Golden Helix) and Haploview 4.2 software applications.
The mammary lesions were clinicopathologically characterized with several tumor classifiers, such as histological grading, clinical staging, other pathological features and clinical outcome. For each classifier score linear type traits were established (higher score values were set for higher grade of malignity). Pearson correlation test allows the identification of significant linear correlations and also provide the orientation of that relation. Correlation analysis was completed between the different classifier traits in the SPSS version 17.0 (significant
In order to disclose putative associations between SVs and haplotypes with mammary tumor clinicopathological features, we allocated the presence or absence of each sequence variant and haplotype with each classifier trait and for each cat mammary lesion analyzed (cf.
A Pearson correlation test and Crosstabs two-way and multi-way tables were performed. The Crosstabs two-way tables provide the chi-square test (Pearson's χ2 Tests) and Fisher's exact test as measures of association (SPSS version 17.0 software). The chi-square test was used to test associations of the allelic and haplotype frequency between groups or subgroups of samples (χ2 Tests significant
In human breast cancer, several studies considering the analysis of
The bioinformatics analysis with the Human Splicing Finder database predicted that four of the SVs can produce alternative transcripts that justify further investigation at the experimental level.
Our data demonstrated the occurrence of linear correlations between several clinicopathological traits and also showed a putative association between the five non-wild type haplotypes and clinicopathological traits, namely with primary tumor size and number of masses.
It is important to highlight that, as far as we know, the present study is the first report concerning cat

The Japan-America Society of Hawaii (JASH) is a nonprofit, nonpartisan, 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization established on September 28, 1976, with a mission of "promoting understanding and friendships between the peoples of Japan and the United States through the special and unique perspective of Hawaii." We do this by providing programs, which help to expand knowledge, increase meaningful human contact and facilitate discussion of important issues.
To carry out our mission, the Society conducts educational programs for the schools, informational programs for members and the community, seminars, panel sessions, and special projects, such as the First International Symposium of Japan-America Societies and the Ehime Maru Fund. More information on these programs can be found under Programs and Calendar pages.
Membership is open to anyone interested in learning more about Japan, the United States and the U.S.-Japan relationship. The Society sponsors a wide range of business, cultural, and educational programs to fulfill its mission. There are forty Japan-America Societies in the United States representing over 30,000 members and twenty-nine America-Japan Societies in Japan with an equally impressive membership. JASH is a member of the National Association of Japan-America Societies.
The Society is also affiliated with the Crown Prince Akihito Scholarship Foundation (CPASF) and the Ehime Maru Memorial Association (EMMA). Both the CPASF and EMMA are separate nonprofit, 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organizations. The CPASF provides two two-year scholarships to American graduate students studying at the University of Hawaii for study in Japan and two two-year scholarships to Japanese scholars to study at the University of Hawaii Graduate School. EMMA is responsible for the maintenance of the Ehime Maru Memorial in Hawaii and helps to promote Ehime-Hawaii relations.
Chair's Message:
September 2014
Fellow JASH Members:
I appreciate the trust you have placed in me as Chair of the Japan-America Society of Hawaii. When my term started in January 2014, I put forward two goals:
1) Begin to implement the Strategic Plan, approved by the Board of Directors in November 2013; and 2) Bring aboard a new President to succeed the retiring Ed Hawkins.
Effective October 1, 2014, JASH will have a new President in Lenny Yajima so tick box #2 off! While Lenny certainly has big shoes to fill, she comes well prepared for this role given her rich marketing/public relations experience as well as background as the former chief executive of the Japanese Cultural Center of Hawaii.
A warm Mahalo to Ed Hawkins for his nine years of service to JASH; his able leadership has led to a smooth transition. This, coupled with Lenny's great passion and enthusiasm, has allowed her to "hit the ground running" and your Society to not miss a beat.
With regard to goal #1, your Board has organized as outlined by the Strategic Plan. With our new President, your Directors and I look forward to working with the staff, corporate and general members, and others in furthering our mission: "Promoting understanding and friendship between the peoples of Japan and the United States through the special and unique perspective of Hawaii".
Thank you for your support of your Society. I especially extend my deep appreciation to the members who serve as Directors, Committee Chairs, Executive Committee Members, and volunteers. Our future is bright because of each of you!
Yoroshiku Onegai Shimasu,
Daniel Dinell
President's Message:
Dear JASH `Ohana:
It is an honor to have been selected as your new President! I am so fortunate to join dedicated and diligent staff members,
- Marsha Yokomichi - Vice President - Ron Quizon - Admin Director - Kelsey Soma Turek - Educational Program Director - Elizabeth Stanton-Barrera - Asian-Pacific Children's Convention and Japan-in-a-Suitcase Director - Corina Jacobson - Program Coordinator - Kathryn Murata - Educational Program Assistant
who share the same passion as I for strengthening the friendship and bonds between the U.S. and Japan through the spirit of Aloha. We, your staff `Ohana, will be working closely with Board Chairman Dan Dinell and his team of Directors to implement the Society's new strategic plan which is structured to enhance our exclusive offerings to you, our valued members, and to provide a sound financial future for JASH as we continue our extensive programming.
Many of the signature programs that exist today, and truly define JASH at its finest, are the result of former President Ed Hawkins' tireless work to build the bridges of friendship between Hawaii and Japan and beyond.
Ed, while we will miss you tremendously, we are so happy that you can now enjoy golf, travelling with Grace, and rendering "TLC" to your overgrown garden! We look forward to welcoming you back as a guest of honor at JASH events.
As I start my tenure as your society President, I humbly ask for your support in any or all of the following ways: - Read our JASH Journal - Attend our event offerings - Spread the good word about our Society - Renew or upgrade your general or corporate membership - Bring new members on board
We are counting on your support of JASH!
Yoroshiku Onegai Itashimasu, Lenny Yajima President

Icahn takes eBay stake, advocates PayPal spinoff

The UpTake: Wall Street tycoon Carl Icahn is making noise in Silicon Valley, this time by buying up eBay stock and calling on that company to spin off its money-making PayPal division.
Apple isn't the only tech company to draw the attention of activist investor Carl Icahn.
The billionaire has set his sites on eBay (Nasdaq: EBAY) as well. The online marketplace revealed Wednesday that Icahn has amassed a stake in the company. He's agitating for the spinoff of eBay's PayPal division.
But such a spinoff could leave eBay a shell of its former self. The payments division accounts for 40 percent of eBay's revenue.
The company's management opposes Icahn's proposal. Chief executive officer John Donahoe said on a conference call that the best way to maximize shareholder value is to stay unified, Bloomberg reports.
"When you separate two highly intertwined and highly performing businesses, it creates significant distraction and dis-synergies," Donahoe said on the conference call.
Word of Icahn's interest in eBay comes as the Wall Street gadfly announced he has upped his stake in Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL). He now owns $3 billion worth of Apple stock. He is agitating for Apple to buy back shares, a move he said would increase the value of Apple's stock.

For a magazine with roots in the late 1960's San Francisco counter art-culture, NYC's Jack Hanley Gallery (who used to have a space here in SF) new exhibition Diggers, Mimes, Angels and Heads hits close to our hearts. The exhibition includes photographs, posters, periodicals and other printed ephemera from the San Francisco social activist and counter-cultural scene from 1966 to 1968.
Here is the press we gathered:
The Jack Hanley Gallery presents Diggers, Mimes, Angels and Heads, an archival exhibition of the San Francisco social activist and counter-cultural scene from 1966 to 1968. The exhibition includes photographs, posters, periodicals and other printed ephemera. At this moment, with the Occupy Wall Street movement offering up the thought of less capitalism and shifting the values of a money-oriented society, it seems timely to remember The Diggers--and a different use of the 1%.
The Diggers, a loosely based gang of improv actors from the San Francisco Mime Troupe and their anarchist/absurdist friends, formed in 1966 and were active until about 1968 in the Haight-Ashbury neighborhood of San Francisco. These "activists" considered it "dribble" to have 10,000 people marching around the Federal Building to protest the war. But how great, they thought, would it be to have 10,000 people march around the Federal Building for no reason at all. Absurdity was their medium of activation. Yet, so was the very way in which they lived.
The Diggers avoided the symbolic ideals of political protest by offering free food everyday at 4pm in Golden Gate Park. With the creation of Free Stores, a Free Bank, a free medical clinic (which still exists today as the Haight-Ashbury Free Clinic) and the Free Frame of Reference, a storefront that provided free film screenings and poetry readings, the 1% that made up the counter-culture was beginning to break free. Like many other counter-cultural groups of the time, the Hell's Angels and the Heads, the Diggers embraced and fought for those ousted by the structures of society, those that were considered to be the 1%. A history of their action lives most heavily in the printed materials that were distributed daily and the altruistic practices that still exist today like the Daily Free Meal Program at Glide Memorial Church. Engaging action as a value to be shared and exchanged, the Diggers and other San Francisco counter-cultural groups of the late 1960?s set the stage for many of the practices alive today on our streets and in our cities. This exhibition surveys the moment when the 1% represented something entirely different.

I'm scripting out a fairly simple database so I can simply hand off a script to someone else for an application to use. I'm curious about where best practice/the community stand on this: When should you create your primary/foreign key constraints? Should you do it while you are creating the tables because of the continuity, or should you do it after the tables are created since it will be easier to script that way since you can create the tables in any order you wish? Are there any potential fatal flaws down the road with either pattern?

Pain Still Happens When You're Spiritual
As a human being, you will experience pain. Whether it's physical, mental, emotional or spiritual, it'll come. And yet, we're all running so far away from this understanding, because it's scary and it hurts. Sometimes, it challenges us to the core.
For a very long time, I ran away from everything that was dark in my life until I literally found myself at the other end of the country. Then, faced with myself, I ran even farther away to the other side of the world.
In the middle of China, I realized that there was nowhere else I could go. Pain had found me.
Caroline Myss, author of Anatomy of the Spirit and Defy Gravity, gives it to you straight. Her audiobooks are phenomenal. She's caring no-nonsense when it comes to expanding your mental-emotional-spiritual horizons. In Anatomy of the Spirit she asks, "Where is it written that if you pursue the spiritual path, that you will no longer feel pain?"
What do you mean that if I pursue this spiritual path that I will still experience pain?
I thought that by deepening my consciousness, I'd escape suffering? Apparently, that's not what this existence is about. Learning to be with ourselves is learning to be with all of ourselves, which includes the shadow as much as the light.
One of my mind-body mentors told me matter-of-factly recently that in our society today, so many holistic teachers take things out of context. They haven't done the decades of diligent study, but take what they think the message is meant to be and tout it in yoga classes, holistic centers, and wellness workshops.
The general public starts to think we need to act/think/behave in certain ways in order to attain enlightenment, in order to be pure, to be perfect. My mentor has studied with the gurus, spent time in silence and in ashrams around the world, gone over many sacred texts in great detail.
"Nowhere," he tells me, "in any of the great spiritual traditions, does it say that you need to be perfect to attain enlightenment. In fact, some of those people in the stories we read about were sons-of-bitches. They killed other people, beheaded them, cheated. They were not perfect by any means. The darkness is part of the process — you've got to go through it to get to the light. That's why the three lower chakras are made of negative energy. You've got to go through the shit first. If Source created everything, then Source created the negative feelings too, so there's nothing wrong with having them."
One of my biggest challenges has been to stop pretending that everything's okay all the time. That's not realistic. It's not human. When I'm annoyed, I'm learning to feel annoyed rather than shove it somewhere else.
When I'm angry, I'm learning to understand that I'm worthy enough to get angry if I'm not being respected or honored properly. When I'm envious, I let it in as much as I let it out. It'll pass. Nothing lasts forever. The one constant we can count on is change.
As a yoga teacher, I feel like we're constantly told that we need to shift our negative ways of thinking into the positive immediately, to transmute our experiences into bliss, so that we don't dwell in the crap.
Everything always needs to be elevated!
Yet, what this constantly reinforces is an idea of perfectionism, that there is some place way over there that can indeed be attained, but we're too flawed to reach it.
I've spent my life thinking that I'm not good enough. My Chinese parents were angry when we came home with an A rather than an A on our report cards.
We were always compared to other children, told that we were less than and underperforming. I falsely believed that if I could just do better, then I'd receive my parents' love and affection. Everything would be okay.
Turns out, not so much. While my story may differ from others, I have countless friends, students, and clients who all struggle with this idea that they are imperfect.
Rather than seeing what makes each of us unique, we only see what makes us unworthy. Our society promotes these ideas of inadequacy by telling us to lose more weight, buy more things, choose this brand, so that then what? Everything will be okay?
When I first heard Caroline Myss say that spirituality doesn't mean we don't experience pain anymore, I was surprised and upset.
What am I doing then? Isn't the point to avoid suffering?
But then I returned to a lesson I learned in my yoga teacher training, where we start to understand that everything we experience or endure is ultimately about our perspective. How we view ourselves and how we view the world colors everything.
The same event can happen to two different people and it's their viewpoint that interprets their truth.
In the midst of pain or shadows or darkness, what I now see are the lessons I'm learning, the ways in which I'm growing. Even if they don't come with a pretty little bows tied around them, they're still part of the gift of being alive.
And, in the end, that's pretty awesome, the fact that we're alive.

quote Bass UltraHaha I never used her W powerchord. I always thought it was somehow underpowered or something. Although if it was broken, then fixing it is a huge buff to her late-game then. Imagine an ADC being hit by Frozen Heart, Randuin's. and Malphite's Ground Slam, and then having Sona' W powerchord thrown on them. (77.7% damage reduction lol)Apparently we Sona players have been playing with a broken powerchord W for the past 2 years. Visually it looks like the damage reduction is working but it actually isn't. ;-;
Now its fixed, and W is getting some nerfs and she's getting her base stats buffed.
quote ShadowCrystalluxThat terrible armor is pretty exclusive to Sona, but mana issues and movespeed are both problems that other supports suffer with, especially Lulu.*bump* I find it highly amusing how everyone says she's hard to screw up. She's quite easily my worst/second worst support, purely because she takes practically true damage level 1, is mana hungry early on, needs movespeed to get anywhere, and has less utility than most other supports. I'm not saying she's a bad support, I'm just saying that if you get behind in your lane as sona, unless you're sona/ezreal bot, you're done for, because she doesn't deal well vs enemies that can trade. Meh. I like using her in normals, but not ranked.
quote Tashur AsturWait, unless I'm supporting. Both are as bad as the other in solo queue. The ad carries just moan, winge and bitch about the support, and the support hasn't learned the concept of warding. Between the two: gg. If only I was a good ad carry :S.quote ShadowCrystalluxfixed it for youAD CarriesSupports in Solo Queue in general can go to hell.
quote ShadowCrystalluxfixed it for youAD CarriesSupports in Solo Queue in general can go to hell.
quote ShadowCrystalluxArmor Reds, Armor yellows, GP5 Quints, MR or CD or Mana GlyphsAny ad carry that has any damage early game wrecks her. I am currently trying to find a way of tanking her up, which may mean sacrificing gp yellows, or I could speed her up and ditch the gp quints.suggestions on not taking ~90% AD level one?

A Riddle of Roses by Caryl Cude Mullins reviewed by Georges T. Dodds This is fantasy tale for young teenagers, steeped in Celtic mythology. As a first novel, it reads remarkably well, with a nice mix of fantasy, interesting and unusual characters, and an avoidance of didacticism and moral preaching. It also has the nowadays seemingly ubiquitous headstrong young woman who yearns to take on an untraditional role for women in her society, against the wishes or the wisdom of her elders.

Henry Rollins: Harmony at Dischord
[Look for your weekly fix from the one and only Henry Rollins right here on West Coast Sound every Thursday, and come back tomorrow for the awesomely annotated playlist for his Sunday KCRW broadcast.]
See also: Henry Rollins: Thinking For Myself
I am writing to you from one of my favorite spots anywhere. I am at Dischord House in Virginia, home of the mighty Dischord Records, one of the ground-floor record labels in America.
Dischord is owned and operated by Ian MacKaye of Minor Threat and Fugazi fame. His current band, the Evens, just wrapped up several SoCal shows. I have been visiting this place since Ian and some other Dischordions moved in here almost 32 years ago.
Ian is a few feet away from me, in his small office wallpapered with album covers, photos, letters -- some of these have been tacked up since the early '80s.
In the doorway that joins the dining room to the kitchen, there is an adjustable chin-up bar. This was mine from when I still lived in D.C. It is bent from the time the members of Rites of Spring collectively hung from it in 1984.
There is a great sense of permanence about Dischord House that I very much enjoy. My life is, for the most part, a sleep-deprived, omni-directional, grab-ass blur. Dischord House is a rock, a true referential reset.
Over the decades, Dischord has released hundreds of records and bravely sailed the seas of consequence through musical trends and the ebb/flow of economic convulsions. Perhaps one of the reasons Dischord remains thriving while many other labels, hard-working and honest, have sadly closed up shop is that Dischord keeps things spare and simple.
Dischord initially started as a vehicle to release the EP Minor Disturbance from Ian's band, The Teen Idles. Dischord quickly turned into a small label, dedicated to releasing the music of bands from the D.C.-Maryland-Virginia area. In fact, my band's EP was Dischord No. 2, Minor Threat's first release was No. 3. Prices are kept low and the mail-order service is prompt. Dischord distributes other local labels, expanding the access of people all over the world to amazing music. It is a sturdy and vigorous machine, Dischord.
Meanwhile, the production company I've been working with has been kind enough to give me the use of a rental car, which allows me to have a life in the scant hours we're not working, and to check out some of my old neighborhood streets.
I'm not staying near where I used to live. I'm stationed in a part of Virginia where almost every street seems all too quickly to turn into a highway, sending unfamiliar me off to an airport, a Civil War battlefield or Pittsburgh. A short drive turns into an almost hourlong, multihighway bushwhack back to where I started.
It is interesting to be in the area where I spent the first 20 years of my life but not have the time to do much. Other than, that is, shoot on location for 12 or more hours, go to the gym, eat while reviewing materials for the next day's work and then trying to get a few hours of sleep before it all starts again bright and early. We are working a six-day week. The moments away from work are rare.
Across from where I am living is a small sandwich shop that stays open late. I was in there a few nights ago, after a 13-hour day. The manager recognized me and we got to talking. He hates his daily commute of 34 miles each way, which often requires an hour in each direction. He takes out his aggression on his automobile. "I am trying to kill my car," he tells me. "It's an old Toyota four-speed that refuses to die. I can get it to 104 going downhill if I'm in a hurry." He concludes with a statement I've never heard anyone say: "I drive it like a raped gorilla." Not the greatest image to entertain right before dinner.
Since the Boston Marathon bombing and the ricin-letter scar, our schedule here has gone a bit awry. Access we were promised is suddenly revoked and we're forced to scramble, as the speculation and spin picks up a freakish momentum.
Zubeidat Tsarnaeva, the mother of the implicated bombers, insists her sons, Tamerlan (dead) and Dzhokar (in custody) are innocent. I can understand a grieving mother's pain, but she's a real piece of work. She is, however, in interesting company with the Alex Jones crowd, which has, unsurprisingly, a fairly surreal take on what happened in Boston.
On Jones' Infowars.com, you can purchase a T-shirt with the Second Amendment of the Constitution written in the shape of an assault weapon, complete with high-capacity magazine, where "the right of the people" is crammed in. Sport one of these and get ready to hear "Hey, sexy!" all summer. You can also read some of the best comment postings anywhere.
Underneath an article about the bomb-mom: "Has anyone put a pressure cooker loaded with weights in a backpack and photographed it to compare and contrast to the ones on the patsi.... Sorry suspects?"
Pause for sanity:
"You guys are too funny. What next? Superstorm Sandy was staged?"
Then right back to it:
"Maybe? Ever heard of *HARRP?" (*High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program)
What a time we're having. I'm still into that idea I had weeks ago of Alex Jones in a Peter Pan outfit swinging on cables at the Pantages for 20 sold-out nights. He and his fans with rifles, on the other hand, doesn't excite me nearly as much.
Between the awful events in Boston and Jodi Arias, the pundits won't have to do any heavy lifting for weeks.
Thankfully, you and I have an endless supply of music to see us through times of turbulence. May I suggest the newly released John Coltrane Sun Ship: Complete Sessions two-CD set or the three-LP version (limited 3,500 pressed) on Mosaic. Now we're making sense.

On modelling overdispersion of counts
Poortema, K. (1999) On modelling overdispersion of counts. Statistica Neerlandica, 53 (1). pp. 5-20. ISSN 0039-0402
Restricted to UT campus only : Request a copy 213kB |
Abstract: | For counts it often occurs that the observed variance exceeds the nominal variance of the claimed binomial, multinomial or Poisson distributions. We study how models can be extended to cope with this phenomenon: a survey of literature is given. We focus on modelling, not on estimation or testing statistical hypotheses. The attention is restricted to independent observations. |

Lepide SQL Storage Manager
Lepide SQL Storage Manager is free tool built with unique database management capabilities that help administrator of an organization...
Lepide SQL Storage Manager is free tool built with unique database management capabilities that help administrator of an organization...
The idea of virtualizing a function and then separating its management functions and them putting them under programmatic control has gotten quite a bit of attention in the market over the last year. We've heard about software defined networks, storage, and even whole data centers. Is support of only x86-based systems and their workloads enough?
With software-defined storage in Windows Server, you can get SAN features without paying SAN prices -- and the next release will challenge more high-end storage features.
As well as acquiring storage-engine company WiredTiger, open-source database firm MongoDB is bringing on board the architects behind the technology.
With general availability of the next version of MongoDB looming as early as next month, CTO Eliot Horowitz believes it represents an important step for the open-source database.
The app connects user's PC, Android or iOS device to their storage accounts from Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox and Box.
The brains behind Fusion-io — the company that revolutionized server economics with PCI flash storage — are at it again. Primary Data plans to disrupt enterprise storage. Here's how.
From secure containers to Docker support, to abstracted networking and storage, the most interesting features in the next version of Windows Server will come next year with a later preview and System Center beta.
The virtualisation specialist is to make its vCloud Air platform available from a datacentre in Germany, introduce new database and object storage services, and roll out the ability to pay per minute for infrastructure.
Red Hat's new storage server does more than just help you get a handle on your enterprise storage. It also gives you what you need to manage big data and ready-to-run partner storage solutions.
HP said the incentive is designed to give smaller businesses the ability to adopt server virtualization for less cost and physical footprint than dedicated storage hardware.
Oracle will likely pitch its database, content management tools and analytics packages to Front Porch customers such as A&E Television, BBC, Discovery and Nascar.
The new Red Hat Satellite isn't just for Red Hat Enterprise Linux system administrators. Anyone managing a Red Hat-based cloud will be glad that Red Hat Satellite 6 has arrived.
Database auditing is an integral part of every organization's compliance protocol, but the built-in auditing tools that come with your database exact a heavy toll on hardware, software, storage, and human resource costs.

Here are some animal-derived ingredients commonly found in household products
- Ambergris
A solid substance produced in the intestines of sperm whales often used in perfumes and cosmetic products. - Down
Down is the name for bird feathers, often from a duck or a chicken used for stuffing pillows, comforters, and coats. - Gelatin
Also used in food products, gelatin is derived from the collagen extracted by the bones, ligaments, and hooves of animals. - Lanolin
Lanolin, a fat derived from wool, is often used in cosmetics and personal care products.
What are The Tests?
Animals used in laboratory tests include mice, rats, dogs, cats, and rabbits, and many more. The kinds of tests done on animals vary and are not always by name, as are the two below.
Commonly, testing is performed on animals to determine toxicity (how poisonous a substance is), irritancy (how a substance reacts with animal tissue), or mutagenicity (how a substance affects DNA).
Draize Test
When you first heard products like shampoos were tested on the same bunny rabbits you saw at the pet store, you might have imagined these rabbits getting their fur washed on a daily basis.
Actually, tests like the Draize test are tests for toxicity. The Draize test involves dabbing a substance in the eye of a conscious animal (often a rabbit) and letting it linger to study its possible effects on the human eye.
Why are rabbits used specifically? Because rabbits have no tear ducts.
Median Lethal Dose
The Median Lethal Dose, also known as LD50, is a metric of toxicity determined by the dosage required to kill half of a group of animals.
For example this test shows it takes 90,000 mg/kg of water (yes, water) or 50 mg/kg of Nicotine to kill half of a group of rats.
Homemade Cleaning Products
While there are plenty of excellent products not tested on animals, it's often dramatically cheaper to just make them yourself!
Please note, some commercial products in the attached media are not vegan.
- Vegetable Scrub
- Hand Sanitizer
- Wet Cleaning Wipes
- Stove Cleaner
- Dishwasher Detergent (Also check out Soap Nuts)
- How to clean every room in your house using items you already have
Vegan Vendors
- Vegan Essentials
VE, as the name implies, is all vegan with a wide selection of foods for humans and nonhumans as well as clothing and other specialty items. - Amazon.com
While not an exclusively vegan storefront, Amazon actually has a large directory of vegan foods available in bulk in their grocery department. - Pangea
Pangea, also known as TheVeganStore.com is an all vegan storefront much like Vegan Essentials.
The time will come when men such as I will look upon the murder of animals as they now look upon the murder of men

What really matters to patients living with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease? An exploratory study
Williams, Veronika, Bruton, Anne, Ellis-Hill, Caroline and McPherson, Kath (2007) What really matters to patients living with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease? An exploratory study. Chronic Respiratory Disease, 4, (2), 77-85. (doi:10.1177/1479972307078482).
Full text not available from this repository.
There is limited published research into what really matters to people living with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Most previous research in this area focuses on the impact of the symptoms of COPD, rather than on the issues defined as important by patients themselves. This paper
describes an exploratory study investigating what is most important to people living with COPD. A qualitative approach employing in-depth interviews with COPD patients was chosen. Thematic analysis was used to code and categorize data.
Six patients with 'moderate' to 'very severe' COPD were recruited. They considered engagement in specific activities to be very important (walking, household maintenance and driving), even though these activities were mainly centred around the home environment, or within confined spaces, due to their physical limitations. This restriction led to feelings of social isolation that these patients tried to overcome through social participation (holidays, social interaction). People with COPD often experience physical restrictions, which can lead to reduced community mobility and social isolation. In this study, despite their physical limitations, these patients had a
strong desire to participate and be engaged in various activities. The importance of enabling patients to 'participate' rather than just 'do' should be considered when planning and delivering patientcentred interventions across the whole spectrum of severity of COPD.

The Phillies made it through Wednesday's game against the Cardinals without a fan running onto the field for the first time in three nights. Deserving or undeserving, let's chalk up some of the credit to their new stadium policies.
According to the Associated Press, via NBCSports.com, Philadelphia police officers will no longer be involved in the apprehension of fans that run onto the Citizens Bank Park field, unless completely necessary. It was a city cop who tased and arrested Steven Consalvi on Monday night. On Wednesday, his family issued an apology:
"Steve and his family wish to apologize to all
Philadelphia Phillies fans, the entire Philadelphia Phillies
organization, players, staff and security, as well as the Philadelphia
Police Department for what occurred that evening," attorney Steven F.
O'Meara said in a statement. "His family hopes and prays that people will
understand that teenagers do impulsive things. This
young man has never been in trouble before and has learned a valuable
The Phillies also established a new fine for fans that enter the field of play: $2500. We can only hope that puts a stop to the attention-seekers. Or, as the Consalvi family likes to call them, "impulsive teenagers."
- Old Gator - May 6, 2010 at 12:27 AM
I do understand. I was a teenager once myself.
I think. It's hard to remember that far back. Then again, I assume if I wait long enough, I'm going to pass back through being a teenager on the way to my second childhood. I'll see how impulsive I feel then. Should be an interesting way to spend my dotage.
Meanwhile, if Steven going to run around pissing in his pants like that, as a gesture of understanding I'm happy to loan him a box of Depends.
- CitizensPark - May 6, 2010 at 12:30 PM
The Phillies have a $2500 fine for jumping on the field, I would rather be tased, just tase me Bro. What other kind of fines have they instituted. This team now deserves to lose for not having a sense of humor. Lighten up.

Back to basics: Fels-Naptha
Huh? Fels what? <i>Fels-Naptha</i>, an old-school bar laundry soap that's a staple in DIY detergents and is used for numerous home remedies.
Mon, Jan 04, 2010 at 11:03 AM
Happy 2010 and welcome back to another edition of "Back to basics," a series of posts where I feature old-school (gotta love the retro packaging) household products that have stood the test of time for good reason: they're often cheaper, more effective, and more planet-friendly than chemical-heavy modern concoctions.
I thought I'd start off 2010 on a thrifty note with Fels-Naptha, an often overlooked and under-stocked bar laundry soap that's been around for more than 100 years. Manufactured by Dial since 1988, petite yet potent Fels-Naptha is most commonly used as a pre-stain treatment that lasts longer than remedies sold in giant plastic bottles. Not only is Fels-Naptha cost- and planet-conscious, it's also highly effective particularly on stubborn, oily stains like lipstick, chocolate, baby formula and perspiration.
Grated Fels-Naptha is also a staple in homemade laundry detergent recipes along with 20 Mule Team Borax (Fels-Naptha's sibling product in the 1890s) and Arm & Hammer Washing Soda. It's said that one bar of Fels-Naptha can help make a year's worth of laundry detergent. Talk about cost efficient….
And like any good "Back to basics" product, Fels-Naptha is extremely versatile. It can be used to remove soap scum in bathrooms, clean paintbrushes, sooth bug bites, treat poison ivy, oak, and sumac rashes, and when used in combination with other natural ingredients, a Fels-Naptha-based tonic helps keep bugs and weeds at bay in gardens. And here's an interesting tidbit: it's rumored that in the 1920s and 30s, jumbo-sized Fels-Naptha was the preferred type of soap used by mothers when "washing out the mouths" of potty-mouthed children.
It must be noted that Fels-Naptha isn't environmentally flawless. As one point, it contained a key petrochemical ingredient, Stoddard Solvent, and continues to contain artificial colors and fragrances. And, like most household cleaning and laundry products, Fels-Naptha can irritate the skin and eyes when overused. So please, even though it's a bar soap, don't take showers with the stuff.
Fels-Naptha can be purchased from online retailers like Amazon.com and the fabulous, informative Soaps Gone Buy. It can also be found at most home improvement and grocery stores (sometimes it's misplaced in the body soap section instead of the household/laundry aisle so be sure to look around).
Have you used Fels-Naptha in the laundry room or for various tasks around the house, particularly in the laundry room, and garden? What have your experiences with it been?

Idaho Criminal Rule 46.1. Bail for Witnesses.
If it appears by affidavit that the testimony of a person is material in any criminal proceedings and if it is shown that it may become impracticable to secure the person's presence by subpoena for a hearing or trial, the court may require such witness to give bail for the person's appearance as a witness in an amount fixed by the court. Such bail may be deposited in the same manner as bail of a person charged under Rule 46. If the person fails to give bail to appear as a witness, the court may commit the person to the custody of the sheriff pending final disposition of the proceedings in which the party's testimony is needed but the court may order the person released if the person has been detained for an unreasonable length of time and may at any time modify or eliminate the requirements as to bail. Bail of a witness may be forfeited as bail in other cases pursuant to section 19-3011, Idaho Code.
