Where & When ... Temporal & Geographic Distribution Building a DNA Family Tree - using your genes to trace your ancestors back Right! Let's take stock! If we suppose that several people have joined your project (they have), each of them have received their results which have also been posted on the website (they have), your results are up there too (they are), and now, you're faced with a gaggle of haplotypes (you are). You can see perhaps that some of them match you exactly, some are off by a marker here or there, and some are not even close to you at all. So ... what do you do next? Let's try and answer that question ... bit by bit ... Lineages, clusters, genetic families Chris Pomery writes an excellent step-by-step guide on how to sort or cluster a varied group of many different haplotypes into distinct genetic families or lineages and I reproduce it here (see http://www.daltongensoc.com/dnaproject/text.html#4): The process of clustering DNA results takes place in several stages. The first stage is to group all the participants by haplogroup. This is because men belonging to haplogroup R could only share a common ancestor with someone who is haplogroup Q some tens of thousands of years ago, well outside the range of genealogical research. The same is true of men defined as haplogroup R1a as compared to, say, members of haplogroup R1b. All members of a bona fide genetic family by definition will share the same haplogroup. With the haplogroup-based clusters established, the second stage of the analysis process is to compare the DNA signatures of all the participants in each haplogroup using the most reliable markers. The most reliable markers are those that are the slowest to mutate. The third stage is to use the remaining markers, generally described as fast-mutating, to further sub-divide the genetic families that became visible during the second stage. The fourth stage is to use those markers which express their result as a pair of numbers or as a sequence. There are specific issues relating to these markers which make them best suited to be used to further define existing clusters rather than to create them. The resulting genetic families are broad clusters of identical and near identical DNA results. The main conclusion one can draw from an individual's inclusion in a specific genetic family is that they are highly likely to share a common direct male-line ancestor with other members of that genetic family. Put another way, if they are able to research their family tree with perfect accuracy they should be able, eventually, to document the links that tie them to everyone else within the same genetic family and to end up looking at one big family tree. So the modal haplotype is the sequence of marker values that occur most commonly for each of the markers
in the participants tested to date. Although this should reflect
the most ancient haplotype from which the various branches of the genetic
family have evolved, this may not be the case if the sample is biased by having an "over-representation" of members from one particular family branch. However, it is a good starting point, the assumption being that this is the haplotype from which branched out all the other haplotypes in the group as a whole. Cladograms, Phylograms, & 'Mutation History' Family Trees Ultimately, it should be
possible to map the earliest haplotype and estimate when and how the other
subgroups branched away from it. This map could be called a 'Mutation History' Family Tree, or a Y-DNA Family Tree, because it traces the 'descendants' of a particular Y-chromosome, but instead of identifying individuals by name and date of birth, it will characterise them by mutations in specific Y-DNA STR markers. It is also possible to use special computer software programmes to
generate cladograms, phylograms, or phylogenetic network diagrams. This type of
diagram has also been used to map other evolutionary events, such as the
evolution of animals, or the more distant changes in Y-DNA (haplogroups) going
back to the earliest common male ancestor (in Africa, 60,000 years ago). For some examples of phylograms, see Debbie Kennett's website and there are several videos on how to read phylograms and create your own at Chris Pomery gives a very useful overview of how phylograms can assist traditional genealogy in an very well-produced video He also provides a useful overview of the process of combining genetic genealogy with traditional genealogy The best guidance on how to generate phylograms is provided by David Ewing on the Ewing Surname Y-DNA Project website Triangulation The first step in generating a DNA Family Tree is to calculate the haplotype of the
MDKA (Most Distant Known Ancestor) for each of the branches in the Family. This
is done by a process of 'triangulation', a concept borrowed from trigonometry
and geometry. Basically, this process compares the haplotypes of known cousins and if they are identical, then one concludes that the identical DNA has been passed on to both of them via their most recent common ancestor (MRCA). This is taken as confirmation that the haplotype of a pair of cousins has not mutated since the time
of their MRCA. Here's how it would work in the Spearin Surname Project: And that, in essence, is triangulation. A video explanation of triangulation can be found in the section on Interpreting Results. Once the
haplotype of the MDKA has been estimated for each of the various branches of
the family, it should be possible to work out through a logical process of
deduction, which mutation came first, and which mutations followed it. In this
way a 'Mutation History' Family Tree can be developed which can be superimposed
on top of the paper-based Family Trees (generated by traditional methods). Thus
ancestors earlier than each MDKA can be characterised by their mutations, and
calculated guestimates can be made regarding the nature of their relationship
with other branches. Phylograms can also be generated (to double-check this work) but the software (although freely available on the net) is not user-friendly and defies interpretation by any but the most phylogenetically-orientated minds. Furthermore, they serve as a guide rather than a definitive account of how and when mutations occurred. For an interesting discussion of the pros and cons of phylograms vs mutation history trees, see http://www.johnbrobb.com/Content/DNA/MutationHistoryTrees&FluxusDiagrams.pdf. The other drawback is that this modelling exercise is based on probability and uses a 'best fit' approach. The problem here is that there are going to be times when it just doesn't fit i.e. the 'best fit' is not always the correct fit. If anyone can, Genghis can Despite these potential drawbacks, this type of phylogenetic approach has produced some startling
revelations. In 2006, an article appeared in the American Journal of Human Genetics reporting that the same Y-chromosome haplotype had been identified in about 8% of men in a large region of Asia (about 0.5% of the male world population). The pattern of variation within the lineage was consistent with the theory that it originated in Mongolia about 1,000 years ago (several generations prior to the birth of Genghis Khan). The 25 Marker Y-DNA Profile of Genghis Khan according to Family Tree DNA is:
Irish Warlord spreads more than just the word In January 2006, geneticists in Trinity College Dublin suggested
that the 5th-century warlord 'Niall of the Nine Hostages' may have been the most fertile male
in Irish history. In northwest Ireland as many as 21.5% of men (8.3% in
Ireland in total) have the same Y-chromosome haplotype and
share a common male line ancestor roughly 1500 years ago. Below is their
25-marker Y-DNA ancestral haplotype, and by extrapolation, the haplotype of
Niall of the Nine Hostages. Thus the genetic evidence confirms
ancient fables about Niall and suggests that he may be the forefather of
approximately 3 million men in the world today (see http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1380239/pdf/AJHGv78p334.pdf).

Sorry for crosspostning this but wasnt sure it was related to Uberkernel, Govnah or both.
Im new tPad user and Installed Govnah and Uberkernel right after doctoring to 3.05 but ive been noticing a stutter when playing web-tv and youtube. It gets less when I change to low quality stream but still annoying. I reverted back to standard kernel and played same content and it runs smooth. Comparing the CPU grahps the overclocked profile is fluctuating while the standard profile is a steady at full speed. What could be causing this?

I've been having some issues with Govnah no holding a profile (meaning I choose a profile but it won't keep it, instead switching to some unknown thing), so I uninstalled it, then re-installed it. Now it does hold a profile but I only have 3 profiles available: OnDemandTcl 1200, Screenstate3 1200, and UnberKernel Default. Previously I had maybe 6 or 8. Where did they go, and how to I get them back? (I would like the screenstate-sensing 500/1000 one!)
thanks, Toby. |

Hi am not sure if this the the right place for this comment.
There is a bug on Govnah on the HP PRE3. Whenever Govnah is on in exhibition mode and a notification comes up, the bottom of the screen remains "dirty". I tlooks like the debris of the bottom of whatever application used to be on during the last notification Is there any way for govnah to clean that up? Or is it a kernel/luna problem? |

Hi Guys,
does anybody uses UberKernel with Conservative-Governor and discovered the "ideal" parameters to get a good performance and battery life? I've already scrolled through 20-30 Pages of this thread without getting an answer to that question. I've experimented the entire day on my Pre- running 1.4.5 and the best I got is still not perfect and leads to infrequent breaks in MP3-Playback. Indeed I've found a reply at about page 55 which did not recommend to use one those governors, but I don't like the idea of using the Screenstate-Governor which keeps my CPU constantly at 800 MHz even if system would also get along with less. Thanks in advance! Don_Marco |

saying that i use a semi-drastic conservative setup on my pre3, i have low freq 245mhz, max freq on 1ghz as even on games ive yet to see anything tax my pre3 at even the lower 1ghz. Ive devolted to min allowed lvls, any issues and just increase the value a notch. up threshold 95%, down threshold 70%, sample rate 0.6. these settings arent insta responsive fast but so far for me their ok, i can deal with lag/startup issues even if it bags me some battery. tbh i find it hard to test fairly or accuratley as i dont think a days use or lower is a decent test time, longer is needed and this only delays your test times and even then your changes may seem marginal or non existent, esp if your normal use is not identical per test period. if in doubt stick to ondemandtcl and just devolt/lower max freq and ramp up powersavebias, remembering to apply/save new profile after every option change. id also like to hear of any noticable good balanced setups tbh.

Min. Freq: 250MHz Max. Freq: 800MHz Sampling Rate: 0.8 Sec Sampling Down Factor: 4 Up Threshold: 60% Down Threshold: 20% Freq Step: 10% Not perfect but much better as my first configuration. It keeps the CPU at about 30°C and reduces playback dropouts considerably. I agree with you that every new configuration needs to be tested at least a day but meanwhile I got so many different configurations for conservative-governor as well as for ondemand-governor that it would take several weeks to test all of them thoroughly. The easiest way (I don't like to choose - choosing Screenstate 500/800) actually seems to be one of the best. It reduces playback-errors even more and increases systems' performance, but it also drains my battery even faster and heats the cpu up to 38°C even if there's no excessive workload (just opening/closing some small apps). Anyhow everything seemed to be much easier as I didn't know all of these options Tomorrow I'll try your advice of choosing ondemand-governor with a high powersave-bias. Thanks for your help. I'll keep you up-to-date Good Night |

I've tested the following configuration this morning for about half an hour:
Governor: Ondemand Min. Freq: 500MHz Max. Freq: 800MHz Powersave Bias: 50 System's performance seems to be very good with this configuration because the ondemand governor is much faster than the conservative one, but battery drains very fast. I used it about half an hour for surfing the web via 3G and already that 30mins took 35%. The Palm Pixi with default governor only takes 10-15% for the same task at the same amount of time. Moreover its not possible to lower Min. Freq. below 500MHz. Otherwise some apps like open fire cause graphics glitches and games like SuperJump halt after a few seconds. |

not sure about setting more suited to your specific phone then, my pre3 has no issues ramping down to 122mhz tho ive got its min on 245mhz atm or id occasionally miss some of my alarms or mode switcher mode would trigger late or not at all, running such a high min is likely 1 of your issues.
also seems you seem to have less options on your phone than my pre3 with uberkernel so again not sure what you can and cant use, i can only suggest what i have access too. maybe someone with your exact phone can suggest a better solution. this issue was for your pre minus?. Any others out there who can help?

Sort By :
"Been quite some time since I've made this, always goes over well! i usually make only half recipe since we are empty nesters. I use the 3 cups chopped broccoli as recipe calls for, and full can **cream of** soup. Cream celery soup works very well, too. How 'bout trying it out on your family!!"
"Ham, broccoli, and potato is always a great combination as far as I'm concerned. However, I feel like it's missing something....salt, more pepper, more cheese, etc. Can't really put my finger on it though."
"This recipe was awesome with my leftover holiday ham. I used what I had on hand, frozen veggies since I was out of broccoli, and I was in a hurry and forgot the flour. Also, I only needed two servings so I reduced this significantly, but after all that, it still came out great. Thanks so much for the recipe!! I really enjoyed making this mainly because it didnt have difficult ingredients that couldnt be subsituted."

Sarah! Time for another big hug!
Okay, this is a blog for grown-ups, so I'm going to ask this straight: Does it seem like Republican candidates John McCain and Sarah Palin hug a lot more than, say, the Democratic candidates?
Being a cosmopolitan guy I also hug women I haven't seen for a while, but I mean, these two are doing constant campaign stops all over the country together, aren't they?
So this is like, John! Sarah! Where the heck have you been keeping yourself, John? It's weird, Sarah, I haven't seen you since like ten minutes ago, waiting in line for the lavatory on the plane! Come here, you!
Shouldn't somebody ask what all this time-consuming hugging is going to do to presidential productivity if they're elected?
Are you on Facebook? Join the Oddly Enough blog network!
above: Republican presidential nominee John McCain is introduced and embraced by his vice presidential running mate Sarah Palin at a campaign rally in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, September 18, 2008. REUTERS/Stephen Mally

Actually, you know what I think happened is this….picture it; McCain is sitting around with the campaign staff trying to choose a VP. The Campaign manager says, "John we have 3 lined up for veep, who do you think will do?" McCain, trying to figure out what the hell happened to Czechoslovakia, thought the the campaign manager said, "Who would you like to DO?". Immediately, John says, "Oh without a doubt, Sarah Palin. She's a babe." There you have it, history made by the crotch.
oh my god people it's humor. sheesh.
and dt's "I just love the way democrats discuss these, really important issues." further proves republicans have NO sense of humor.
get a life.
wait, they have Sara Palin as a running mate – maybe they DO have a sense of humor.
she'd be an even more hilarious choice if she weren't on the ticket to be a 72 yr old heartbeat away from the presidency.
Wow, we try to have a little humor around here and people go nuts. Whether you like McCain or Obama is not relevant, either they hug a lot or they don't. Mrs. Palin does look a little creeped out hugging Mr. McCain, even in those pictures above, I get the impression she does not want to hug him, but she is trapped.
Honestly, I think given this pair's frequent blunders and unneeded, silly speeches, I'm amazed that there's even people supporting them for the upcoming election. Are these two the best them Republican can get from the American population?
Memo to Andre who posted on 9/21: Carter was elected in 1976; Nixon was reelected in 1972 and look what happened. (Ask your parents.)
Who really cares? Bush has done irreparable damage and Reuters is talking about hugging. Think how much the value of the dollar is going to go down when we bail out those criminal CEO's who have to pay 35 percent on their "earnings." Bush can declare martial law before there is even another president.
It doesn't matter if we ever have another president. We'll be $15 trillion in debt paying for park benches for our veterans returning from Iraq with half a skull.
We won't be able to pay for "homeland security." 28 years of the elite stealing all of our money. And the tricklin' just ain't happening. These guys won't ever stop. They'd love to see America go bankrupt. We can have slavery again. Can't wait.
Uhhhh, lets see.
He's like…80.
She's like…40 and not unreasonably attractive.
Methinks he's just taking every opportunity to cop a feel from a woman some 40 years younger than him.
Seems a bit basic to me.
If she looked like Hillary, this wouldn't be going on so much.

Something is just doesn't seem right
What I'd sugges you find out DEFINITIVELY is whether this was an insurance survey or a condition and value/purchase survey - there is a BIG difference, the former being no where near as thorough and should not be depended upon when making a pruchase decision.

Doctors advise Gannon to retire
Raiders quarterback Rich Gannon, his broken neck immobilized by a hard cervical collar, promised he will make an announcement about his football future sometime today. He watched the Raiders' 31-3 loss from the last row of the Coliseum press box Sunday, shortly after visiting another physician for a prognosis regarding the wisdom of playing after fracturing the C7 vertebra.

The MagazineHigh AnxietyIsrael's somber summer—as Syria crumbles, Iran goes nuclear, and the Muslim Brotherhood rides high in EgyptAug 20, 2012, Vol. 17, No. 45
• By ELLIOTT ABRAMS
As the week ended, Morsi's intentions were impossible to discern, and the Brothers were silent (except on reopening the treaty). The ludicrous claim that the Mossad was to blame had not been repeated by top Brotherhood officials, but ideology—and perhaps sheer hatred of Israel and of Jews—prevented them from acknowledging that Israel and Egypt have a common interest and must cooperate. To say that Israelis are fearful about developments in Egypt hardly begins to convey the depth of their concern. If north and south aren't enough of a threat, the Israelis can always look east to Jordan and worry about the stability of the Hashemite kingdom. Visitors there this year have come away concerned: Criticism of the royal family has reached new heights, the budget deficit is enormous, and the game of tossing out prime ministers one after another in the name of "reform" is getting old. The fundamental issue that blocks real reform remains the fact that a political system without gerrymandering would enhance Palestinian political power at the expense of the Bedouin East Bank tribesmen upon whom the Hashemite rulers depend, just as a more open economy would help industrious and educated Palestinians more than the East Bankers. So the king kicks the can down the road, and the Israelis—who have an intimate security relationship with Jordan—cheer each kick and pray he continues to survive this game. Further east is Iran, where as the summer ends so does even the pretense that diplomacy will solve the nuclear problem. The talks between EU and Iranian deputy negotiators on July 24 achieved so little that no date has been set for another effort—at the deputy level, higher, or even for lower "technical level" talks. The U.N. General Assembly meets on September 13, so one can predict some sort of P5+1 meeting there; the six governments will presumably refuse to announce that talks are over lest they seem to justify an Israeli strike. All the publicly available evidence (including leaks) suggests that Iran is accelerating its nuclear work, and the spinning centrifuges produce more enriched uranium every day. Despite the Obama administration's refusal to admit that Jerusalem is Israel's capital, an amazing parade of American officials made their way there this summer: Burns, Panetta, Brennan, Clinton, Donilon, and (rumor has it) others on unannounced visits. All presumably carried the same message: Don't do it! (Or at least: Don't do it before the election!) Whether Israel's window for hitting the Iranian nuclear targets is really closing now or can safely be held open into next year is widely debated, especially by people who don't have the facts. But they can be forgiven, for this is less a factual question than a judgment call. Where Iran's program stands and how fast it can move forward, what Israel can expect to destroy and whether it can expect to destroy less 3 or 6 or 12 months from now, whether Israel's missile defenses are improving faster than Iran's missiles, and whether a President Romney or a reelected President Obama might actually destroy Iran's nuclear sites in 2013 or 2014—these are not mathematical calculations. Add to these some local color in the Israeli debate: questions like "Do you trust Bibi or [defense minister Ehud] Barak?" or "What does General Gantz [the IDF chief of staff] really think?" The school year begins in Israel on August 26, though life will not really go back to normal until after the High Holidays, which this year run from September 16 to October 9. Then the Knesset returns for its winter session, when it is supposed to address a bevy of tough issues, like the national budget and "Tal Law" regulating whether ultra-Orthodox Jews must serve in the military. Between now and then the government of Bashar al-Assad may be gone and the bloodshed may be even greater, Israel may have bombed Iran and itself been hit by Iranian missiles or terrorism, and Egypt's new Brotherhood government may have decided that blaming Israel for everything is a lot easier than cleaning up Sinai. So "back to normal" after the religious holidays is a relative concept this year. Ehud Barak said a few months ago that "only" 500 Israelis would die in an Iranian missile attack after Israel struck the Iranian nuclear sites; IDF officials were later quoted as saying the number could be "as low as" 300. That kind of debate—just how many will be killed in the next few months if Israel needs to hit Iran's nuclear sites?—is a reminder of what "normal" sometimes means in the Jewish state.

Online retail giant Fab.com, which offers flash sales of designer products, has announced plans to open a physical store. The shop won't be in New York, where Fab is based, though. It'll be in Hamburg—right in the backyard of the notorious Samwer brothers, who launched a near one-to-one copy of Fab.com a couple of years ago in an effort to co-opt the American startup's international business prospects.
Bamarang, the Samwer brothers' clone, opened for business in Germany, the U.K., France, Australia, and Brazil just six months after Fab.com. The site not only offered similar products, it also closely mimicked Fab's layout, color scheme, fonts, and photographs. "We even saw a job posting they had that was basically copied and pasted from Fab," Jason Goldberg, chief executive officer of Fab, told me around that time. "It's kind of flattering, but come on: If you're going to do something about design, at least design your own website."
The Samwer e-clone model had worked many times in the past, and the brothers have earned hundreds of millions of dollars copying the likes of EBay (EBAY), Zappos.com (AMZN), and Groupon (GRPN). Not this time. Fab fought back, loudly protesting Bamarang as a shameless rip-off and moving quickly to launch internationally in 28 countries. By June 2012, Bamarang was doing so poorly that the Samwers closed it down. (More on that here.)
Although Fab's decision to open a store in Hamburg reinforces the company's triumph and dominance within the Samwers' home country, it actually has little to do with the German copycats. Fab last year began selling "Fab-exclusive products," and on April 30 announced its acquisition of German online custom furniture maker MassivKonzept. The furniture builder just happens to have a showroom in Hamburg, which will now become a Fab retail store.
The acquisition of MassivKonzept will bolster Fab's Designed By You option, which allows shoppers to order items made to their exact specifications. Fab also plans to open additional showrooms: "Our next target market for a Fab retail presence is in Berlin," Goldberg writes on his website.
Berlin is where Fab's European headquarters are located. It's also home to the Samwer brothers' e-commerce clone factory, Rocket Internet.

In the wake of the horrific Sikh temple shooting in Oak Creek, Wisconsin by Wade Michael Page—an ex-military neo-Nazi—comes a startling new investigation that reveals the depths of the extremist and criminal elements that have infiltrated the US military over the past two decades. Compiling years of research, interviews, and reporting from around the globe, journalist Matt Kennard presents a hard look at how the deliberate loosening of enlistment standards, especially after 9/11, allowed neo-Nazis, gang members, and the mentally ill to flood the ranks of the military.

What We Don't Talk About When We Talk About Terrorism |
By: TBogg Monday August 6, 2012 7:40 am |
US agencies have been ignoring evidence of right wing and supremacist links to domestic terrorism ever since a DHS report pointed out the growing risk. The latest killings at the Sikh temple is likely to bring forth the same right wing reactions. TBogg reminds us what happened back in 2009.

Arrest in Actual Bomb Plot in Spokane: Will This Story Break Wide? |
By: Teddy Partridge Wednesday March 9, 2011 5:50 pm |
My major question about today's arrest in the actual bomb placement at the Spokane, Washington, Martin Luther King Day parade is this: how will America's media cover the arrest of a non-Muslim motivated by white supremacy who actually placed an operational bomb in a clear hate crime?

Gene: | yqjA | Accession Numbers: G7609 (EcoCyc), b3095, ECK3086 |
Synonyms: ecfL
A yghB yqjA double null strain has a synthetic growth defect at elevated temperatures, forms chains of cells at permissive temperatures, and can be complemented by yghB, yqjA, yohD, or yabI expressed from a plasmid [Thompkins08]. The double and single mutants displayed altered phospholipid compositions [Thompkins08].
An E. coli ΔyqjA ΔyghB strain is hypersensitive to a number of structurally diverse drugs and dyes including ethidium bromide, methyl viologen, acriflavine, nalidixic acid and β-lactam antibiotics. A wild-type response is restored by expression of yqjA from a plasmid [Kumar13a]. Mutation of the membrane embedded acidic amino acids E39 (glutamic acid) or D51 (aspartic acid) in plasmid-expressed YqjA compromises its ability to restore wild-type resistance [Kumar13a]. Overexpression of yqjA in a wild-type background does not result in increased resistance to any of the compounds tested. Overexpression of the mdfA antiporter restores the wild-type resistance of an E. coli ΔyqjA ΔyghB strain to all componds tested as does growth in the presence of 400mM NaCl or with increased amounts of cations or at pH 6 [Kumar13a, Thompkins08]. Deletion of yqjA and yghB may indirectly cause drug sensitivity due to impairment of the proton-motive force (PMF) [Kumar13a].
YqjA is a member of the DedA family of inner membrane proteins [Thompkins08, Doerrler13]. E. coli K-12 contains 7 other DedA family members, namely DedA, YghB, YabI, YohD, YqaA, YdjX and YdjZ. Collectively, the DedA family is essential in E. coli K-12 [Boughner12].
Transcription of yqjA is regulated by RpoE (σE [Dartigalongue01].

MP3: Sole's 'Everyday I'm Hustlin'' (plus his favorite books?)
Click here to download.
Bonus: Want to be come an unofficial member of the Sole book club? Holland included a list of his favorite books, and here's a few titles:
- Hyperion by Dan Simmons: This is the best science fiction I have ever read
- The Testament by Francois Villon: This is probably my favorite piece of poetry.
- Violence by Slavoj Zizek: I love reading what this guy has to say, because he is alive and always offers a new perspective on current events.
- City and the Stars by Arthur C Clark : This is the book that Ilifted the cover for [new album] Plastique from, or shall I say, a very old outdated out of print version from the 50s. This is a dystopian novel written in the 50s in the spirit of 1984 or brave new world. millions of years in the future, humanity finds itself holed up in an automated society, with all remaining humans living in a logan's run-esque dome.
- White Noise by Don Delillo: This book is fantastic. Delillo is one of the great living writers.
- Gag Rule by Lewis Lapham: Another one of my favorite writers. Gag Rule is a book he put out a few years ago basically covering the history of censorship in america, written in the typical Lapham prose. This guy is brilliant.

The Unwritten is an American comic book ongoing series written by Mike Carey[1] with art by Peter Gross[2] and published by the Vertigo imprint of DC Comics.[3][4][5][6] The book follows Tom Taylor, who was the inspiration for a series of hugely successful children's fantasy novels in the vein of Harry Potter. The series deals with themes related to fame, celebrity, and the relationship between fiction and human consciousness.
Plot synopsis[edit]
The plot revolves around Tom Taylor, son of Wilson Taylor, an author who disappeared without a trace at the height of his career. Wilson wrote a series of books about a boy wizard called Tommy Taylor, filled with fantasy, even being compared to the Harry Potter series. Tom is generally portrayed as being somewhat rude and jaded about his status as a minor celebrity. His father had made a fortune off of a character modeled on young Tom, but Tom himself is without accomplishment, even claiming that his only real skill is an encyclopedic knowledge of literary geography. Tom makes most of his money through appearances at comic book and fantasy conventions. At one of these he is confronted by a man dressed as the villain of the Tommy Taylor novels, Count Ambrosio. Believing him merely to be an obsessive fan, Tom dismisses him but he is later kidnapped and held captive by the man, who appears to be a real vampire like Count Ambrosio. Taylor manages to escape with the kidnapper being killed by an explosion. His troubles are just beginning as a young woman named Lizzy Hexam confronts him at a convention where she publicly asserts that Tom is not the real son of Wilson Taylor. A media firestorm ensues in which various theories, such as Tom being a gold digging impostor, or his having been bought by Wilson Taylor from Bosnian refugees, circulate.
Eventually, some fans come to the conclusion that Tom Taylor, who had miraculously escaped unharmed from the explosion which killed Count Ambrosio, was the living incarnation of the fictional Tommy Taylor and would act as some sort of messiah. In an attempt to get away from the publicity, and get to the bottom of the mystery of his identity, Tom retreats to the Villa Diodati, the Swiss mansion where Mary Shelley wrote Frankenstein. The villa is the place where his father wrote the Tommy Taylor novels and the last place where he had been seen before mysteriously disappearing. Unbeknownst to Tom, a small gathering of mystery and horror authors is also meeting at the Villa. While Tom attempts to figure out what happened to his father, the other attendees are murdered by a mysterious assassin known as Pullman. When the authorities arrive they accuse Tom of the murders. As he is being arrested, Tom is shocked to see the winged cat that accompanies the fictional Tommy Taylor in his adventures, perched nearby. Thrown into prison, Tom is put in a cell with Savoy, who turns out to be a reporter who had bribed his way into prison in order to report on Taylor's activities.
In prison, Tom immediately runs afoul of the prison's warden Chadron. The warden's children love the Tommy Taylor books and he hates Tom for potentially sullying their enjoyment of it. Chadron even goes so far as to allow a team of assassins to enter the prison to kill Tom. However, Tom and Savoy are rescued by Lizzie Hexam, who had gotten herself imprisoned in the women's section of the prison in order to help Tom. Using a magical doorknob which he had discovered in the Villa Diodati, Tom, Lizzie, and Savoy escape from prison, but not before witnessing the death of the warden's young children who, enamored of the Tommy Taylor novels and believing them to be real, had attempted to save Tom. After Tom's escape the warden discovers his dead children and, consumed with rage, transforms into Tommy Taylor's enemy Count Ambrosio. Meanwhile, Tom, Lizzie and Savoy, who now mirror the fictional threesome of Tommy and his friends Peter and Sue, find themselves in a ghostly 1930s Germany. Tommy discovers that this is a representation of the creation of Jud Suss the notorious Nazi propaganda film. This is an important event because the original novel Jud Suss involved a positive portrayal of a Jewish civil servant in Germany. The Nazis twisted the narrative to reinforce their antisemitic notions of Jewish villainy.
At this point, we discover that Lizzie is apparently still in communication with Wilson Taylor, a fact which she continues to hide from Tom. Wilson worries that Tom is not ready yet to confront as powerful a fiction as Jud Suss. Indeed, when they meet a fictional version of Joseph Goebbels, the phantom nearly kills Tommy. Lizzie, Tom, and Savoy eventually escape and use the doorknob to travel back to the real world, just in time for the release of the final Tommy Taylor novel.
While many people assume that the story is inspired by Harry Potter, Mike Carey, in an interview with Nicholas Yanes from scifipulse.net, claimed that "the most important reference point is the autobiography of Christopher Milne – who is famous as the Christopher Robin of the Winnie the Pooh books. Milne grew up feeling that his father had stolen his childhood from him, turned a profit from it and then given it back to him in a form he couldn't use. Our Tom is very much in that situation when we first meet him, although we take his identity crisis a fair bit further than that."[7]

Looks like the NH 7308 FEL fits your tractor. Do a search for the tractor with FEL on google to verify this or just call your local dealer and ask. Enjoy your new tractor!

Re: Loader advice
They say that to a guy with a hammer, everything's a nail. I find myself armed with some knew knowledge and figure you, of course, need to hear it.
I've had my tractor for about 6 years. It was delivered with the loader. However, not until last night did I have liquid ballast in the tires. Amazing difference. As soon as you get your tractor, get the ballast in your tires!

Re: Loader advice
I dont own a newholland but I'll add my :2cents"
IMO, you cant go wrong with the OEM loader from your dealer. You know it will be right.
Sure, there are several aftermarket loaders out there. And may save a little, but either way, its going to be a big purchase. I'd pony up and spend the little extra for OEM cause IMO, aftermarket loaders just dont look right. And I am sure I aint the only one that thinks so. And I cant help but wonder what an aftermarket (non-color matched) loader does to re-sale value vs a OEM one that looks like it came that way.
BTW, some common bands I hear tossed around for aftermarket are woods, rhino, and koyker. I am sure there are others though.".........there is only one way to find out."

Battle of Bushy Run Tour Gives a New Light to the Past
By Richard Robbins, The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review
Jul. 27–On a recent guided tour of the battlefield, David Miller, chief of education at Bushy Run, pointed out Edge Hill, where Bouquet's command spent the night of Aug. 5, and where, the morning of Aug. 6, they heard the battle cry of the enemy.
This open, grassy field no longer resembles the colonial forest of 1763, but the topography is the same. Miller took note of the embankment that hid the retreating Redcoats from the warriors just as the Indians were about to attack what they thought was a weakened British defensive position.
Miller offers guided tours of the battlefield. Visitors can walk or ride in a multi-seat golf cart operated by Miller.
The year 1763 was a bleak one for Pittsburgh and the Ohio Country, and but for a ferocious encounter between British Redcoats and American Indians some 25 miles from the Point, the situation might have proved far worst.
For the Crown, the Battle of Bushy Run saved the day.
In the spring and summer of 1763, the British garrison at Fort Pitt came under heavy assault by Delaware, Mingo, Huron, Ottawa and Shawnee warriors. By early August, some 400 Indians surrounded the fort. Failing to burn the place down, the warriors appeared determined to starve the soldiers, and the townspeople who sought their protection, into submission.
The news elsewhere was hardly better. The series of forts originally built by the French starting at Lake Erie and extending down the Allegheny River to Venango were in the hands of the Indians, principally Seneca and Mingo. As a result of tribal raiding parts, the Pennsylvania countryside was in turmoil.
In the Great Lakes region, a charismatic Ottawa chief, Pontiac, emerged in the wake of the French surrender in the French and Indian War. A former French ally, Pontiac was stirred to action by revivalist religious leaders championing Indian autonomy. The holy men taught that reliance on the white man had led to social and political degradation. Nothing less than the survival of Indian culture was at stake.
Added to this religious mix were concerns stemming from the British victory over the French. The Indians, following a parley with the British in Easton, thought their bargain with representatives of the Crown included an English agreement to abandon their fortifications west of the Alleghenies. The Ohio Country, free of white settlements, was to become a vast Indian homeland.
Neither the continued presence of Fort Pitt, the Crown's largest fort and its strategic gateway to the Ohio Country, nor the settlers streaming across the mountains reassured the Indians.
On the contrary, these were matters of the gravest concern to native tribes, as was the decision by the British commander-in-chief, Jeffrey Amherst, to discontinue the practice of paying tribute in the form of gifts to the Indians, and to suspend the trade in rum and gunpowder.
In the end, these grievances anchored the widespread discontent that erupted into Pontiac's War — a war unique in the annals of colonial history in that it represented a revolt by Indians against a European power.
Before running its course, Pontiac's War claimed several thousand lives and sent shockwaves through the British military and the government in London.
In the midst of the war, the Battle of Bushy Run was fought in the rolling countryside of present-day Penn Township, seven miles northwest of Greensburg.
The British, under the brilliant leadership of a 44-year-old Swiss emigre Col. Henry Bouquet, won a singular victory, literally snatching victory from the jaws of defeat.
A British failure to lance the boil of Indian rebellion at Bushy Run would have had untold consequences. According to Bushy Run historian and educator David Miller, Fort Pitt faced dire times otherwise. As it was, the siege of Fort Pitt was lifted, and Pittsburgh and the surrounding countryside limped into 1764, battered but standing.
Even so, the Battle of Bushy Run from the British perspective hardly was a smashing success. The two-day struggle left 50 men dead, 60 wounded and five missing.
For the Indians, the defeat was significant. Until then the absolute masters of hit-hide-and-run combat, the native tribes tasted defeat for the first time in woodlands fighting. As many as 30 warriors died in the encounter.
The first inkling of Indian discontent emerged along the shores of Lake St. Clair in the spring of 1763, on the heels of the bargain struck in Paris between the British and French ending the French and Indian War.
David Dixon, a professor at Slipper Rock University who has written a definitive account of Pontiac's War, notes that native tribes were "shocked" to learn of the peace treaty, which ceded French control of Canada and of lands south of the Great Lakes.
"Pontiac reasoned," according to Dixon, "that if the Indians did not immediately strike back against the Redcoats, they would soon become too powerful to overwhelm. He also concluded that a war against the British might persuade the French to reconsider and join their Indian allies once again."
Even without French participation, Pontiac was determined to push ahead. He called on warriors to "take up the hatchet" and "drive off those dogs clothed in red."
His message, aimed initially at Fort Detroit, resounded through a large swath of territory. In the weeks that followed Pontiac's move against the fort, Indian "messengers raced from village to village … carrying the news that war had begun at Detroit."
"As if by prearrangement, other Indian groups took up the hatchet against remote, thinly manned British outposts," writes Fred Anderson in "Crucible of War," his chronicle of colonial-era warfare.
Forts Venango, LeBoeuf and Presque Isle in present-day northwest Pennsylvania fell in a matter of days in June 1763. In one terrible week, the lines of communication and supply between Fort Pitt and the Great Lakes were severed, leaving the British at the Forks of the Ohio exceedingly vulnerable. Subsequent raids on the eastern forts of Ligonier and Bedford exacerbated Fort Pitt's isolation.
"I am persuaded this alarm will end in nothing." Gen. Jeffrey Amherst uttered upon learning of the fate of the Allegheny Valley forts. Eventually convinced that real trouble was brewing, Amherst ordered Bouquet to Pittsburgh to lift the siege and relieve the pressure on Fort Pitt.
Both Bouquet in Philadelphia and Amherst in New York raged against the Indians. Bouquet, who considered Indians "a bloody race," compared the rebellious tribes to "vermin" that had "forfeited … all claims to the rights of humanity."
To carry out his mission in Western Pennsylvania, Bouquet was outfitted with 450 soldiers drawn from three units.
These units left their assembly point at Carlisle July 15, arrived at Fort Bedford July 25 and reached Fort Ligonier Aug. 2.
Meanwhile, on July 26, chiefs Tissacoma, Grey Eyes and Big Wolf, at a parley with the commander of Fort Pitt, Capt. Simeon Ecuyer, demanded that he surrender his outpost. Ecuyer refused and boldly declared, "We shall not abandon (the fort) as long as white men live in America."
The captain might have spoken with his fingers crossed. As Dixon writes, "Ecuyer also recognized that with his food supply nearly depleted, the fate of the garrison rested on Bouquet's tiny army."
It was no mean trick crossing 250 miles of Pennsylvania wilderness in the summer of 1763. It was hot, for one thing, and the roads were almost impassable. In addition, most of Bouquet's men were not accustomed to the wilderness, and many of them, particularly the flankers, became lost. Besides, more than a few soldiers were ill, having fought in malaria-infested Havana, Cuba, the year before.
Bouquet's command crossed the countryside west of Fort Ligonier for a distance of 12 miles Aug. 4. His plan for the next day was to march to Bushy Run Station, an English installation halfway between Fort Ligonier and Fort Pitt, rest during the afternoon and proceed through the narrow passage of Turtle Creek after dark.
Bouquet considered Turtle Creek the point of greatest danger to his troops, the most inviting spot for an Indian ambush.
It wasn't. The Indians, numbering as many as 300, attacked a mile from Bushy Run Station.
At 1 p.m. Aug. 5, the British advance guard was fired on by tribal members concealed behind oak and hemlock trees from a hill to the right of the road leading to Fort Pitt. With the advance of the main body of troops, the Indians gave way. The Redcoats' success was short-lived, Bouquet telling Amherst in a communication written that evening that it was impossible to gain "any decisive advantage, for as soon as (the enemy) were driven from one post, they appeared on another."
With reinforcements, the Indians eventually worked their way to Bouquet's rear, where they threatened to disperse the command's pack horses with their precious cargo of flour. Bouquet, who had fought in the French and Indian War under Gen. John Forbes, had few choices. He ordered his men to form a defensive perimeter on Edge Hill, "a commodious piece of ground and spacious enough for our purposes" about a quarter-mile east of where the Indians first attacked.
The day's battle went on till nightfall.
Bouquet, noting to Amherst that "the savages exerted themselves with uncommon resolution," took stock that evening of his losses and his prospects.
"We suffered considerably," he wrote.
Bouquet was disquieted by what might transpire beginning the next morning.
"In case of another engagement," he wrote, "I fear insurmountable difficulties in protecting and transporting our provisions."
His third-to-last paragraph to his chief began, "Whatever our fate may be …"
An unknown British officer at the battle might have summed up the feelings of a great many in Bouquet's command, as they rested on their arms and huddled behind bags of flour for protection.
"In an America campaign," he began, "everything is terrible; the face of the country, the climate, the enemy." In such a place, "no victory is decisive" and "simple defeat is the least misfortune" that may befall one.
As the sun came up, war whoops rose from the forest about 500 yards from the British camp. The warriors, out of the sight of Bouquet's beleaguered men, almost encircled the Redcoats, and their "shouting and yelping," meant to terrify the soldiers, must have at least braced them for the trial to come.
The Indians opened fire early, Bouquet later noted, made "several bold efforts to penetrate our camp," and when themselves were cornered or outmanned "always gave way."
As the day wore on, the heat, lack of water and fatigue of battle took its toll on the Redcoats, so that Bouquet felt his men were "distressed to the last degree."
A student of tactics, Bouquet, according to Dixon, "recognized that his only hope was to entice the Indians to concentrate their forces at one location, and then draw them out into the open, where his troops could fight them."
Ordering two companies of light infantry to withdraw from the skirmish line, Bouquet feinted a retreat. The Indians took the bait. They attacked, but when they did so, they were surprised to see the same retreating soldiers return to the battlefield, pouncing on the Indians' right flank.
"They … could not stand the irresistible shock of our men, who, rushing in among them, killed many of them and put the rest to flight," Bouquet noted.
The Battle of Bushy Run ended with the warriors fleeing through the woods. Several days later, Bouquet's command entered Fort Pitt with many of its supplies intact.
In September 1763, when word of the British victory at Bushy Run reached Philadelphia, church bells tolled, and Bouquet was hailed as a hero. The next year, the Indians agreed to peace in the Ohio Country.
Promoted to brigadier general in the British army and given command of the Southern District, Bouquet fell ill shortly after arriving in Pensacola, Fla. He died there Sept. 2, 1765.

Question: Regarding the intersection of Newton and Mosier Streets in South Hadley, why is there a "No turn on red" sign only at the corner where you'd turn right onto Mosier Street from Newton Street?
Also, could anything be done about the duration of these traffic signals when traffic volume is low? These lights seem to have a very long cycle during off-peak hours.
– Anonymous,
South Hadley
Answer: Limited visibility is the reason there is a "no turn on red" sign for the right-hand turn from Newton Street (Route 116) onto Mosier Street, according to Michael Verseckes of the Massachusetts Department of Transportation.
"Vehicles at the stop line on Route 116 do not have a clear view of the approaching traffic on Brainerd Street in order to negotiate a safe right turn on a red, due to the curvature of road and the vegetation growth on Brainerd Street," said Verseckes.
In answer to your second question, Verseckes said the intersection is "under full actuation, meaning there are vehicle detections on all approaches.
"If working properly," he said, "the intersection should be traffic-responsive whether it is during high or low traffic volume times. It sounds like there may be a detection failure issue that will need to be addressed."
Just Ask: Why is there a 'no turn on red' sign only at 1 corner on Mosier Street and Route 116 in South Hadley?

Two other customers, Deborah Moore and Diane Still, show little hesitation in their decision to turn in the elderly shoplifter. They are more shocked than angry. For Deborah and Diane, it is a matter of the principal, of right and wrong. "She can't steal. It's wrong."
A crime is a crime but what makes most customers report the elderly shoplifters isn't just stealing, it's that they appear to be greedy -- taking more than observers think is necessary. Few say they can tolerate the sight of someone helping himself or herself to whatever they want. But, at the end of the day, there is one shopper who can't keep herself from looking beyond law and order. Ironically, she is an ex-cop. Cheryl Painter witnesses both the old woman shoplifting and crying as she is getting turned in by other shoppers. Despite those criminal actions, Cheryl feels bad for her and offers to buy the old woman groceries.
"Well, sometimes, people, if they're desperate, they have to eat," Pinter says. "I still wanted to buy her groceries whether she got arrested or not. She still has to eat."
