Beck avoids politics in hometown visit
Conservative radio and TV personality Glenn Beck mostly stayed away from politics while on a visit to his hometown of Mount Vernon, Wash., observers said.
In town Saturday to accept a key to the city and accolades from his hometown peers, Beck ignored hundreds of protesters outside the city's McIntyre Hall and reminisced about Mount Vernon's old wooden flagpole and the time he got caught stealing chewing gum, The Seattle Times reported.
The newspaper said Beck wept when he talked about going to the town's Lincoln Theater with his mother. The controversial TV and radio host's purpose was to raise funds to restore the Mount Vernon landmark.
Police said the crowd peaked at about 800. The Times reported that people moving down the street in cars and trucks honked and jeered, while one group paraded a sign calling Beck the Mad Hater.
In an appearance earlier in the day in Seattle that drew about 7,000 attendees, the man who provoked outrage by saying that President Barack Obama has a deep-seated hatred for white people or the white culture
called himself the voice of reason in a divided America, the newspaper said.

Implant placement without flaps--Part 2: Utilizing a two-stage surgical protocol. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 10321224 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
The single-stage punch technique can provide an effective means of seating an implant fixture without necessitating flap elevation. As described in Part 1 of the article, when the implant must be submerged during the healing phase of osseointegration, the single-stage punch technique may be modified to permit the requisite isolation to be achieved. In this procedure, the mucosal tissue is removed with the soft tissue punch and reseated at the ridge site following the placement of the implant. The second part of the article utilizes two case presentations to demonstrate the proper use of the modified single-stage punch technique. |

30 Tragic, Beautiful Photos Of Teenage Prostitutes In Bangladesh
A brilliantly photographed series on the dangerous, grueling lives of teenage sex workers in Bangladeshi slums. Read more here.
Seventeen-year-old prostitute Hashi embraces a Babu, her "husband", inside her small room at Kandapara brothel in Tangail, a northeastern city of Bangladesh. Many young and inexperienced prostitutes have "lovers" or "husbands" who normally live outside the brothel, occasionally taking money and sex from them in exchange for security in this male dominated society. She earns about 800-1000 taka daily ($9.75 - $12.19) servicing around 15-20 customers every day. Hashi is one of hundreds of mostly teenage sex workers living a painful life of exploitation in the brothel.
Hashi shows Oradexon at Kandapara brothel in Tangail. Oradexon, a steroid used by farmers to fatten their cattle, is taken by prostitutes in order to gain weight and appear "healthier" and more attractive to clients.
Eleven-year-old Shefali gets her eyebrow threaded. Shefali was born in Kandapara brothel as her mother was also a prostitute. She has to serve around 20-25 customers per day. Shefali doesn't know how much she earns as her Madam takes away all of her income. In exchange she gets food three times in a day and some gifts occasionally.
Nineteen-year-old Lucky embraces her three-month-old son Riyad at Kandapara brothel in Tangail.

What's the best sniper rifle that is dropped by..anything? I currently have a Dobby White Death, which i like the rate of fire but has sorta lowdamage and bullet speed. Finding myself having to aim far ahead of moving mobs and hoping they continue the path into my bullet. Anyone know a decent one that is dropped by any farmable mob? Mainly looking for high/spiked damage and bullet speed. Decent rate if fire is nIce but not necessary. --- XBL: Pryor Beast Kik/Line Mobile Apps: Pryorbeast | |

Lyuda = White Death Exact same gun. The PC calls it Lyuda, 360 it is dubbed WD. Unsure why, but I know what both individual names are referencing. --- What is a man?! A miserable little pile of secrets! | |

The Spiderant Gulch/Alley behind Ellies is the safer route, but you can also climb up there from in the dust. If you leave the garage and drive to the right and hug that wall, past the house with the goliath there is a cliff part near a hostile Bandit Technical Spawner, that you can climb to reach the back of the Boot Hill Church very quickly. If your playing as Zer0, you can set up a nice B0re shot to kill both instantly. If you dont attack the guy who leaves the church, he will focus on the Hyperion Dude, giving you time to ghost and setup the b0re. Trouble is the Techs and Buzzards can easily shred you. I always confuse them, who is Gettle and who's Mobley? xD --- What is a man?! A miserable little pile of secrets! | |
When I farm for that gun I go to FRiendship Gulag so I can save/quit at that door to the Dust. I think that is a bit faster than Ellie's since it is a straight shot. USe the same place to get in as Sinister does. If you just run to the front of the church door and then run off to the right up the little incline there you can wait for those two to start fighting. Gettle will jump up in the air to attack the other guy without noticing you and then you can just blow them both to hell. Gettle is the guy that is armored and drops the Lyuda/WD. Other guy has a shield and regular health. You really want a corrosive one since that gun is lethal against Loaders. I have one of each though. Shock, Corrode, Non-Elem, Slag, and Fire...lol NOTE: I had no idea what White Death was since I have the PC version. I saw it mentioned before, but never looked it up. The Wiki lists it as the Lyuda I think. --- If you like Terraria and can't wait for Starbound check out Darkout too (Greenlight it!): http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=98158224 | |
Its just a name difference, and I think the files for both names are present in both versions. Even heard around launch week it reportedly could appear as both names. I dunno why they changed the names for the versions but yeah. Also since their both right there, definitely kill them both as they both have assigned legendaries. Mobley can drop the Veruc, the Dahl Rifle with the Charlie and The Chocolate Factory reference in its flavor text. Interesting weapon. --- What is a man?! A miserable little pile of secrets! | |

I just wanted something to keep the hatch area of my daughters car clean from her sports gear (dirt, mud, grass, etc). This works just fine. If you are worried about a large liquid spill then I would definitely buy a mat with a raised lip around the perimeter.

We compare the statistics of driven, supersonic turbulence at high Mach number using FLASH, a widely used Eulerian grid-based code and PHANTOM, a Lagrangian smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) code at resolutions of up to 5123 in both grid cells and SPH particles. We find excellent agreement between codes on the basic statistical properties: a slope of k-1.95 in the velocity power spectrum for hydrodynamic, Mach 10 turbulence, evidence in both codes for a Kolmogorov-like slope of k-5/3 in the variable ρ1/3v as suggested by Kritsuk et al. (2007) and a log-normal PDF with a width that scales with Mach number and proportionality constant b=0.33-0.5 in the density variance--Mach number relation. The measured structure function slopes are not converged in either code at 5123 elements.
We find that, for measuring volumetric statistics such as the power spectrum slope and structure function scaling, SPH and grid codes give roughly comparable results when the number of SPH particles is approximately equal to the number of grid cells. In particular, to accurately measure the power spectrum slope in the inertial range, in the absence of sub-grid turbulence models, requires at least 5123 computational elements in either code. On the other hand the SPH code was found to be better at resolving dense structures, giving maximum densities at a resolution of 1283 particles that were similar to the maximum densities resolved in the grid code at 5123 cells, reflected also in the high density tail of the PDF. We find SPH to be more dissipative at comparable numbers of computational elements in statistics of the velocity field, but correspondingly less dissipative than the grid code in the statistics of density weighted quantities such as ρ1/3v.
For SPH simulations of high Mach number turbulence we find it important to use sufficient non-linear beta-viscosity in order to prevent particle interpenetration in shocks (we require βvisc = 4 instead of the widely used default value, βvisc = 2).

Tyler Perry's For Better or Worse is an American comedy-drama series created and produced by playwright/director/producer Tyler Perry. The series is based on Perry's 2007 film Why Did I Get Married? and its 2010 sequel Why Did I Get Married Too?. It premiered on TBS on November 25, 2011.[1] Led by the comical, over-the-top antics of Marcus and Angela Williams, the ensemble follows three couples: Marcus and Angela, Joseph and Leslie, and Richard and Keisha who are at various stages of their relationships as they go through the ups-and-downs of married life and dating.
TBS announced the straight-to-series order of For Better or Worse on April 26, 2011, the same day it was announced that House of Payne would be ending after its eight season.[2][3] Unlike House of Payne and Meet the Browns, which are family-oriented, For Better Or Worse targets young adults.[4] The premiere episode of the series acquired 3.33 million viewers,[5] bringing the show to the top of the charts as basic cable's No. 1 comedy series for the month of November 2011.[5][6]
In February 2012, TBS announced the thirty-five episode second season renewal, which premiered on July 13, 2012, with the first season averaging 2.9 million viewers.[7] For Better or Worse was also basic cable's No. 1 sitcom of 2011 and the No. 1 show on all of television with African-American adults in the same year.[8][9]
A year later, on February 20, 2013, it was announced that TBS chose not to renew the series, and that the Oprah Winfrey Network since ordered a third season as part of a new deal the network made with Perry.[10] The third season of the series premiered on September 18, 2013.[11][12] The fourth season of the series premiered on April 9, 2014. The fifth season of the series premiered on September 17, 2014. The sixth season of the series premiered on Friday, March 27, 2015.

The sitcom was welcomed to generally mixed reviews from critics. Boston Herald said "This is more soap than sitcom, an upscale Dynasty crossed with Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? with a dash of urban sass. It knocks you back with a bracing dose of its characters' resentments and rages."[13] Opportunity LOL said "I am curious why Tyler Perry wrote for most characters to be so ostentatiously wealthy as it brings the style a little too close to day-time soap operas. Wait a second, did Tyler Perry convince me to watch a soap opera?".[14]

OH NO! That fat kid is drowning in the pool! I guess Lifeguard Larry had better save him or at least get his corpse out of the pool or something.
In this game you have one minute to take action. Your actions can all lead to different outcomes in this fast and fun, humor game.
OK. so after talking to several people and taking into account all the complaints that people had about the text based controls of the original version I have made this version to be more approachable for the average user.
I also added another medal to the mix can you find out how to get it?
Rated 5 / 5 stars
stupid fat kid... xD, how many medals r there, i wanna know if i got'em all :P
There is an achievements button on the interface that will help you keep track of your medals.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Dude, Just won!!!!!
I saved fat kid. the only thing i would do different is make it longer. otherwise I love it. '_'
Well it could use more options but 10 is a nice round number for most people. Perhaps this could become a series of quick problem solving games later on or something.
Then after a few were out you would have other games to play so they kept your attention longer.
Rated 4 / 5 stars
A lot better than then the last.
I still never got the kid out of the water. And I dont understand the head shot achievement?
Rated 4 / 5 stars
I see no Medals man. Something happen?
The medals will show on your user pages. I don't know why they don't show up on the game itself. I will check with the NG staff on this I guess.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
i just love the humor and the whole abudction from the pool to get him
love the music
great graphics
if only it had more choices

With less than a week until Barack Obama takes up residency at the White House (why does that sound like a low-budget DJ slot?), most commentators are eagerly debating what his stance will be on the economy, environment and the thorny issue of what colour scheme to paint the Oval Office. All we want to know here at Top Gear is what he'll be driving.
And here's our answer. Well, we say 'driving'. We mean 'being ferried around on the back seat, protected by eight inches of armour plating'. This is the all-new Cadillac Presidential Limo, and it's tougher than an oven-baked Mr T.
Nicknamed 'The Beast' (the limo, that is, not Obama), the 18-foot long car is powered by – well, we can't actually tell you. In the name of security and so forth, Cadillac is keeping the details of the limo under CIA-issue wraps. "One of the specifications is that we don't talk about the specifications," said GM's David Caldwell, providing an early contender for 'quote of the year'.
Nonetheless, there's much informed speculation of what sort of heat the limo is packing. We're told it's powered by a 6.5-litre diesel that'll manage about 60mph (in a tardy 15 seconds) and return a meagre 8mpg. Hardly surprising when you consider that the bodywork is eight inches thick and the doors weigh more than those off a Boeing 757. And we didn't make that up.
The tyres, it's said, are Kevlar reinforced, and the limo is armed with pump-action shotguns, tear gas cannons and a CIA-trained chauffeur… all of which combine to make the Obamobile (Obamamobile? Baracar?) very nearly as safe as a Volvo estate.
A reliable source tells us that George W Bush's presidential limo will soon be retired and put into service as a hen night taxi in Romford. Watch out.

Recipe by Kay
"A wonderful chicken and wine with cheese, served over wild rice."

Watch video tips and tricks
6 skinless boneless chicken breasts, cut into 2-inch cubes
2 tablespoons butter
2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
1 (5 ounce) can evaporated milk
1 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 cup white wine
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup slivered almonds for topping
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese for topping
HELPFUL TIPS: I love this recipe, & found it a lot tastier than a similar dish "Jerusalem Chicken" on here. Found no need for adding butter before the chicken & obviously from my pic, we don't always use mushrooms. It's just a matter of being in the mood to add them or what we have in the pantry. I'm also not sure why it says to have COOKED chicken. I never pre-cook or even cut the chicken in small pieces. I did use use a little PAM on my glass dish. While using an expensive wine can enhance any dish, I've had great results using the cheapest wine at the store. I use fat free evaporated milk, any cream of chicken or mushroom, and don't be scared off by the mayo b/c you won't be able to taste it. I also use (any flavor) Almond Accents to go on top (found next to the fresh salads), and can't imagine NOT adding them to the dish. It's that good!! This goes great with potatoes on the side, and I use the honey potato recipe (1 lb red potatoes quartered, 1T butter, 3T honey, and 1t dry mustard - bake 40 min). The salad in my pic is just romaine with sliced strawberries and of course more almond accents and we sometimes sprinkle dried blueberries and cranberries on top. Every toddler that comes over loves this fruit salad. Yummy!
meh...I don't get the high ratings here. Followed the recipe exactly and I'm sure it came out just like it should have but it was - average. Not worth the extremely high caloric intake for something so...well, unnoteworthy. Save those extra calories for something special! We ate it, won't make it again. I think, and this is personal preference, I will NEVER like Cream of Mushroom/Chicken soup as a base so this was my own fault for trying to take the easy way out. Otherwise, easy to prepare, cooking times spot-on.

Ok, so I made a bunch of changes, but this turned out great! First, I sauted some yellow onion with the butter. I didn't use the canned milk or the mayo. (I replaced the mayo with sour cream) I increased the white wine and sour cream to make up for the milk. (I didn't measure, just eye balled it) Also, I didn't use the almonds. Anyway, we loved this. I served it with Sour Cream and Chive Mashed Potatoes from this web site. Yummy! Thanx so much for sharing this recipe!
A very good recipe! To make the meal lower in fat, I used low fat cream of mushroom soup, fat free evaporated milk, and very little butter to saute the mushrooms. I think next time I'll try 2% cheddar cheese. With that change, it if works, this can become a regular meal rather than just for a special occasion. I also suggest that the mayonaise be added right before the sauce is taken off the heat for better consistency.
Very good flavor. Didn't have any cream of mushroom soup so subbed cream of chicken. This reminded me of a hot chicken dip someone made a few years ago at a baby shower. It is rich and next time, I will reduce the amount of butter.
This recipe is deliciously EXQUISITE! Perfect for a romantic dinner for two, or as a scrumptious, sophisticated dinner for a cozy crowd! I did however change the way I cooked the recipe, though I'm sure the overall taste has remained the same. Instead of cream of mushroom soup I used cream of chicken. I used regular skim milk instead of the condensed milk. Instead of cheddar cheese, I used about shredded mozzarella and some cream cheese. (Sorry I don't measure!) And I added more wine. Then, I let it all simmer in a large skillet on low heat for half an hour instead of baking it. Served it over the rice...MMMMMM! Delicious!
This was good. But I think the next time I'll sub sour cream for mayonaise. My husband didn't really care for the mayo flavor much.
This was a quick, easy one to make. I used low sodium soup and it didn't make a difference. My entire family loved it. I would absolutely make it again and again.

DescriptionAs owner of a transportation company catering to the jet set, Logan O'Brien had reached a very comfortable cruising altitude in his business dealings. But his social life was another story--until he met his billionaire client's daughter. Jenna Fordyce seemed to be the kind of pampered princess he'd vowed to avoid, yet he just couldn't keep away from her. For Jenna, Logan spelled trouble--he made her feel like a real woman, dangerously, thrillingly alive. But with her eyesight failing, she had to be extra careful of commitment. Did Logan really love her, or did he pity her? If only she could see inside this inveterate bachelor's heart and find out the truth--before her father put the brakes on their fledgling affair!

I have been using Vsco keys for about ten days now and it's awesome. I programmed my keyboard the way I want it, put in some of my favorite presets and I was off and running. I have to admit, I didn't love it with the stock keyboard layout since I didn't know where to look for the keys. But once I did the custom layout it was great. I'm not sure how much time savings it is compared to using my Wacom for all adjustments, but it is a bunch. I've got a bunch more weddings still in the edit cue and I will time the next one to get an idea. In my opinion, this has to be the best deal going since it seems to be like motibodo but its way cheaper and you don't have to get their keyboard since my standard Mac one works fine. |

Don't know if its VSCO keys, but since the install, my LR4 is so slow when I am trying to make final adjustments to my WB and Exposure. The color wheel on OSX shows up with many of the images I am going through. Anyone know what I can do to resolve this issue. |

Jason Stipp: I'm Jason Stipp for Morningstar.
Despite some headlines you may have read this week, there was some positive news on the housing market. Here with me to explain the situation is Morningstar's Bob Johnson, our director of economic analysis. Thanks for joining me, Bob.
Bob Johnson: Great to be here.
Stipp: So, there are a few different key pieces of data that we got recently on housing.
Let's talk about the first one, prices. We got some housing price data this month. Case-Shiller, obviously, one of the bigger ones that came out. What did that report say?
Johnson: Well, you know what, it was a double-edged report. The front end of it said we were down eight-tenths of a percent in the 20 City Index, but that's not seasonally adjusted. When you go back and seasonally adjust it, we were up a couple of tenths. So, actually a positive piece of news that we actually did get the growth in prices that I was hoping to see. And even if you look back on the year-over-year prices, we've definitely moderated the trend on a year-over-year [basis], and we're down to something like the 3% level.
Stipp: So that headline that said we've hit a new housing low was a number that wasn't seasonally adjusted?
Johnson: Correct. Absolutely. That's how they wrote the article, and how they wrote the press release, but if you dug behind the data, got the seasonally adjusted data and looked year-over-year, there has definitely been some improvement, and on the month-to-month, we actually had one of our first price increases.
Stipp: We got another report from the FHFA, and that also gives you some insight on the housing prices. What did that report say, and were there any differences with what you saw in Case-Shiller?
Johnson: Well, it showed not only that month-to-month there was a price increase, but they also showed that there was a year-over-year price increase. That's the first time that's happened since July of 2006, so it's dramatic that we've shifted in the positive territory on that metric. ... We're talking a large number of years, and now we've finally seen a year-over-year increase, so that was really probably the most compelling piece of price data, and it was up monthly in five of nine months on a year-over-year basis; it was up in six out of nine markets. So, it was not concentrated in North Dakota or something like that, lest anybody question.
Stipp: So I wanted to ask you a follow-up, because we all do know that different regions have different experiences. They've had different recovery rates. What are some of the regional takeaways when you look at the data on pricing? Are some markets still really struggling, and others are starting to pick up a little bit better?

Born in Virginia (USA), I studied and worked in New York City (Manhattan/Brooklyn) for a spell and have been living and traveIing abroad (Asia, Europe and here and there) for a few years now.
Jessica has completed online and offline ID verification.
It was my pleasure having Jessica as my guest. Jessica is a very intelligent young lady who has a lot to offer to the conversation. She is friendly, approachable and very easy to talk to. During her stay, Jessica was clean, tidy and respectful of the house. I recommend her as a guest.
Jessica stayed at my place for one night only but luckily I had the chance to have a very nice conversation with her. She's been a super guest and It was really nice knowing her. I wish her the best for her travel plans :) Cheers!
Jessica is a kind, considerate and polite person. She has travelled to many places and is a great conversationalist as well as being independent and friendly. It was a pleasure hosting her in my home in Tel Aviv.
i had the pleasure of hosting Jessica in my flat in Mexico City but didn't manage to write a review in time so using it as a reference. Jessica and her husband stayed on two occasions at my flat. Although i didn't have the chance to meet them, the communication prior, during and after was flawless and they left the flat in a perfect state on both accounts. I would be delighted to have them again and would definitely recommend hosting her based on my experience here.

Test ID: BUAUC
Busulfan, Intravenous Dose, Area Under the Curve (AUC), Plasma
Method Description Describes how the test is performed and provides a method-specific reference
Busulfan analysis is performed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), with calculation of area under the curve (AUC) by integration of the time versus concentration curve from start of infusion to last specimen collection (6-hour AUC).
AUC and clearance are calculated after quantification of busulfan concentration in blood plasma samples:
-1 specimen drawn immediately after termination of a 2-hour intravenous (IV) infusion of 0.8 mg/kg busulfan
-1 specimen drawn 1 hour after the infusion is terminated
-1 specimen drawn 2 hours after the infusion is terminated
-1 specimen drawn 4 hours after the infusion is terminated
The AUC is calculated by integration of the plot of time in minutes from the start of infusion until the last specimen collection (independent variable), with busulfan concentration in mcmol/L (dependent variable), and with straight-line extrapolation of the immediate postinfusion busulfan concentration to time zero. Clearance is calculated as the dose divided by AUC.
The recommended optimal dose is calculated based on the assumption of an ideal AUC=1100 mcmol*min.(Slattery JT, Risler LJ: Therapeutic monitoring of busulfan in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Ther Drug Monit 1998 October;20[5]:543-549)

Current Trends Imported Dengue -- United States, 1990In 1990, 102 cases of suspected imported dengue (1) were reported to CDC from 24 states and the District of Columbia (Table 1). Of these, 24 (22%) cases (from 14 states and the District of Columbia) were serologically or virologically confirmed as dengue. The dengue serotype was identified by virus isolation in two of these cases. Fifty-five of the suspected cases were serologically negative for dengue, and the laboratory diagnosis of 23 remained undetermined because convalescent serum samples were not submitted. Travel histories were available for 22 of the 24 persons with confirmed dengue. Eight cases were acquired in Oceania, six in the Caribbean, six in Asia, and one each in Mexico and Peru. Of the 23 persons with laboratory-confirmed dengue for whom gender was reported, 13 were female. Age was reported for 18 persons with confirmed dengue and ranged from 20 to 70 years (mean: 37 years). The most commonly reported symptoms for confirmed cases were consistent with classic dengue fever (e.g., fever, rash, headache, and myalgia). Reported by: State and territorial health depts. Dengue Br, Div of Vector-Borne Infectious Diseases, National Center for Infectious Diseases, CDC. Editorial NoteEditorial Note: Dengue is an acute viral disease caused by any of four virus serotypes (DEN 1-4) and is characterized by sudden onset of fever, headache, myalgia, rash, nausea, and vomiting. Although most infections result in relatively mild illness, some may cause the severe forms of the disease, dengue hemorrhagic fever ((DHF) characterized by petechiae, purpura, mild gum bleeding, nosebleeds, menorrhagia, or gastrointestinal bleeding) and dengue shock syndrome. In the Americas, dengue is transmitted by the Aedes aegypti mosquito. Although nearly eradicated in the 1960s, this species is now found in all tropical countries of the region except Bermuda. Dengue is endemic in Puerto Rico and many other islands in the Caribbean, Mexico, and several countries in Central and South America. The most recent major epidemic in the Americas, which involved more than 76,000 cases, occurred in Peru in 1990, with DEN-1 and DEN-4 as the infecting serotypes (2). The most recent large outbreak of DHF occurred in Venezuela in 1989-1990 and involved more than 3108 cases of severe dengue and 73 deaths (3). Three of the four serotypes (DEN-1, DEN-2, and DEN-4) have been circulating in the Americas since 1981. Although endemic transmission of DEN-3 has not occurred in the region since 1977, it could be reintroduced into the Americas; in 1989, DEN-3 was isolated from a Florida resident who had returned from Africa and, in January 1990, from a California resident who had returned from Oceania. Physicians should consider dengue in the differential diagnosis for all patients who present with the above symptoms and a history of travel to tropical areas. When dengue is suspected, the patient's hematocrit and platelet count should be monitored for evidence of hemoconcentration and thrombocytopenia. Acetaminophen products are recommended for management of fever to avoid the anticoagulant properties of acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin). Acute and convalescent-phase serum samples should be obtained for viral isolation and serodiagnosis. Suspected dengue cases should be reported to state health departments along with a clinical summary, dates of onset of illness and blood collection and epidemiologic information, including a detailed travel history with dates and location of travel. Serum samples should be sent for confirmation through the state health department laboratory to CDC's Dengue Branch, Division of Vector-Borne Infectious Diseases, National Center for Infectious Diseases, P.O.

The Relative Codon Deoptimization Index (RCDI) was developed by Mueller et al. (2006) as measure of codon deoptimization by comparing how similar is the codon usage of a gene and the codon usage of a reference genome.
RCDI/eRCDI is a web application server that calculates the Relative Codon Deoptimization Index and a new expected value for the RCDI (eRCDI). The RCDI is used to estimate the similarity of the codon frequencies of a specific gene in comparison to a given reference genome. The eRCDI is determined by generating random sequences with similar G+C and amino acid composition to the input sequences and may be used as an indicator of the significance of the RCDI values. RCDI/eRCDI is freely available at http://genomes.urv.cat/CAIcal/RCDI webcite.
This web server will be a useful tool for genome analysis, to understand host-virus phylogenetic relationships or to infer the potential host range of a virus and its replication strategy, as well as in experimental virology to ease the step of gene design for heterologous protein expression.
Some studies suggest that viral genomes may acquire replicative fitness by selection in one of two ways. First, a codon usage optimized genome, as observed for viruses with high replication rates, such as Poliovirus [1,2]. Alternatively, selection might favour codon usage deoptimized genomes, as observed for viruses with low replication rates, such as Papillomaviruses [3,4]. However, some viruses may have both codon optimized and codon deoptimized genes which may be associated with a lytic or lysogenic phase respectively [5]. In addition, some authors propose that suboptimal codons may be used as a complementary strategy to develop polio vaccines [6-8].
The Relative Codon Deoptimization Index (RCDI) was developed by Mueller et al. (2006) as a measure of codon deoptimization, by comparing the similarity in codon usage of a given gene to reference genome. Though the RCDI is a useful index for virus research, it has never been implemented for public use. In this article we describe the web-server RCDI/eRCDI that calculates the RCDI of a set of genes using the codon usage of a reference genome. However, the codon usage of a gene may be the product of compositional biases such as G+C or amino acids composition rather than a codon usage adaptation [9]. Therefore, an expected value of the RCDI (eRCDI) is implemented in order to test the significance of the RCDI values.
The RCDI/eRCDI program has been implemented in PHP as a web-server and it is freely available as one of the tools of the CAIcal server [10]. The program is also available for local use as a Perl script to calculate the RCDI and eRCDI for a great amount of sequences.
Data input/output
The inputs to calculate the RCDI are: 1) a gene (or set of genes) in FASTA format; 2) the codon usage table of the reference genome in codon usage database [11] format and 3) the genetic code. Other input parameters are related to the calculation of the eRCDI and may be modified according to user requirements. The web-server provides 4 outputs: 1) Genes' parameters: the RCDI values, the frequencies for all codons [(CiFa/CiFh)Ni; see description below] and the %G+C of each gene; 2) Global parameters: the mean %G+C and amino acid composition, and the number of sequences used to calculate the eRCDI; 3) Statistical tests: the RCDI/eRCDI server performs a Kolmogorov-Smirnov test for normality of the eRCDI and a Chi-Square Goodness-of-Fit test to evaluate if the test sequences are homogeneous in %G+C and amino acids composition and 4) Expected RCDI: the mean RCDI value from random sequences and the eRCDI value.
Relative Codon Deoptimization Index (RCDI)
The RCDI/eRCDI server calculates the RCDI by the equation (1), where CiFa is the relative frequency of codon i for a specific amino acid in the test sequence; CiFh is the relative frequency of codon i for a specific amino acid in the reference sequence; Ni is the number of occurrences of codon i in the test sequence; and N, the total number of codons in the test sequence. The RCDI ranges from 1 (the codon usage of the test sequence is completely optimized to the codon usage of the reference genome) to N (increases with the deoptimization of the test sequence). If the reference genome uses all 61 codons, the maximum RCDI value would be equal to the inverse of the lowest synonymous codon frequency value. E.g. for the human genome, the maximum RCDI is 17.64, in the case of a sequence made up with solely TCG codons, which have the lowest synonymous frequency (0.0567).
Expected Relative Codon Deoptimization Index (eRCDI)
Since the codon usage of genes depends on their G+C content, it is essential to discern whether codon usage differences are statistically significant and arise from differences in codon preferences or whether they are merely artifacts that arise from internal biases in the G+C composition and/or amino acid composition of the query sequences. For this purpose, the estimation of expected values can be useful [9]. An expected value to test codon adaptation was first described for the Codon Adaptation Index (CAI) [9]. This expected value is calculated from N random sequences with a similar %G+C and amino acids composition of the query sequences. Random sequences are generated either by Poisson or Markov methods [9]. Using the same principle, an eRCDI can be calculated from the RCDI of each of these random sequences. Therefore, the eRCDI value corresponds to the upper-tolerance limit, based on the mean and standard deviation, and the level of confidence and coverage introduced by the user. The eRCDI estimated by our server provides a threshold value to estimate if a gene is deoptimized and whether this deoptimization is the product of compositional biases (%G+C and/or amino acid composition).
Interpretation of the results
RCDI values, based on the Mueller et al. (2006) article [1], may allow for an estimation of the translation rate of viral genes in particular, and the whole genome in general. The higher the similarity between viral and host genes (close to an RCDI value of 1), the higher the translation rate is [1]. The first and most straightforward application is to improve expression of proteins in heterologous expression systems, whether increasing the translation rate or manipulating it to obtain proper folding by choosing a sequence with RCDI close to that of the viral natural host. Furthermore, from a genetic point of view, estimation of RCDI may provide insight into the degree of coevolution between hosts and viruses. A low RCDI might indicate high adaptation to a host. Moreover, a high RCDI might also indicate that some genes are expressed in latency phases or even that the virus might present a low replication rate.
RCDI/eRCDI complements information from other indices
The information gained from the RCDI may be complementary to that of other common indices like CAI [12] or the Effective Number of Codons (ENC) [13]. Figure 1 shows results of RCDI, CAI, ENC and G+C percentage at the third position of the codon (%G+C3) of 2500 viral sequences (chosen randomly from the NCBI genome resources http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/genome webcite). CAI and RCDI were calculated using the mean codon usage of the human genome as a reference set. As one may expect, there is a certain correlation (R2 = 0.4023) between the ENC and the RCDI (Figure 1a). However, the ENC is a measure of how biased a gene is from an equal use of synonymous codons and it is independent of a reference genome, whereas the RCDI is genome dependent. The indices CAI and RCDI, that are both genome dependent, have a low correlation (R2 = 0.0197), reinforcing the idea that these indices may be complementary (Figure 1b). CAI is a measure of codon usage adaptation to the most used synonymous codons of a reference genome [14] and is commonly used to predict highly expressed genes [15]. On the other hand, the RCDI is used to assess if the codon usage of a gene is similar to the codon usage of a reference genome. In addition figure 1c shows that RCDI values and %G+C3 are linearly independent.
Figure 1. Relative Codon Deomptimization Index (RCDI), Codon Adaptation Index (CAI), Effective Number of Codons (ENC) and G+C percentage at the third position of the codon (%G+C3) of 2500 viral sequences. a) Correlation of RCDI and ENC. b) Correlation of RCDI and CAI. c) Correlation of RCDI and %G+C3.
Both indices, CAI and ENC can be associated with an expected value, the expected CAI by generation of random sequences [9] and an estimated ENC by a formula that uses the %G+C at the third position of the codon [13]. In this article we introduce the eRCDI as a measure to assess the significance of the RCDI value. Thus, based on the RCDI and eRCDI, it is possible to estimate if a gene is deoptimized and if this deoptimization is the product of compositional biases (%G+C and/or amino acid composition).
The RCDI is a useful index to assess how similar the codon usage of a given gene is to the codon usage of a reference genome and to test deoptimization levels in viral genomes. However, until now, it has never been, implemented for public use. Therefore, the RCDI/eRCDI server will be a useful tool for genome analysis. For experimental virology, it will allow efficient gene design for heterologous protein expression. At a genetic level, it may help to establish and understand host-virus phylogenetic relationships as well as infer the potential host range of a virus and its replication strategy.

What is the difference between the Odexed and Deodexed? What one is better and why. I want to use TBH gingerbread leaks but can't decide what one is the best. Sent from my DROIDX using DroidForums
http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/what-is-odex-and-deodex-in-android-complete-guide/ there you go Sent from my DROIDX using DroidForums App
summary - deodexed is better. the upside is you can completely customize more easily. the downside to deodex is that anytime dalvik cache is wiped (which isn't often), the next time the phone boots up it will take a little while. the odexed version is for people who are certain they just want the latest leak but dont want to modify it at all.
being deodexed means you can theme easier and edit the services.jar file in /system/framework/. being odexed means that each .apk file in the /system/app/and /system/framework/ directories have a corresponding .odex file. This system actually boots the phone up quicker, but we really don't notice it... You can still theme, but it takes more time, the only thing you can't do is edit the services.jar. Services.jar is the file edited to remove that soft data throttle VZW puts....
so if we go with a deodexed rom can we remove the software data throttle and actually notice that our speeds are better? thanks

Pop music in an Irish pub? And what's this about a jazz jam session once a month? Since taking ownership of The Duke of Duckworth on Sept.2, two years to the day that he started working there, Mr. O'Rourke and partner Colin Dalton say they have tripled business. And they are confident their informal approach to managing the pub, which is located in an alleyway at 325 Duckworth St., will keep the patrons coming back. In an interview, Mr O'Rourke said taking over the bar was the best move he ever made. His family had been immersed in the club or beer business in his native Dublin, Ireland for generations, but the weal econimy and harsh everyday life in Ireland took its toll, until Mr. O'Rourke decided to join his sister in St.John's. It was disorienting seeking employment for the first time outside of his family unit, and in an unfamiliar country at that, but Mr. O'Rourke eventually found work that was right up his `alley`, managing the Duke of Duckworth. On Sept.2,1989, after exactly one year of sorting out business details, Mr.O'Rourke While other bars in the city with an Irish motif tend to evoke nostalgia with traditional People of Irish descent tend to congregate at The Duke, as it is called, saying "I am not sure how we did it, or what we are doing right, but we are going to try and keep doing it, whatever it is," said Mr.Dalton. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that neither Mr.O'Rourke nor Mr.Dalton look upon their occupation as work - they say they do it because it's fun. Another secret may be the personable way they treat their customers. One of the The Duke has numbered among its customers the likes of Huey Lewis and David Bowie, who both visited the bar when they were in town. Mr.Bowie really likes a game of pool and a quiet place to relax and unwind before the big show, Mr.O'Rourke said. The only thing he asked of the bartender was not to call every person on the block.That deal made the two settle in for friendly games of pool and quiet conversation. As one customer put it, "You feel comfortable here. You feel you can get into It's just a comfortable place to relax, enjoy a pint or a meal, and the fun and friendly people.
Terry O'Rourke isn't kidding when he says his bar is different from other Irish clubs.
"(Other pubs)play Irish music, but (my patrons)would run a mile when they here
that type of music," said Mr.O'Rourke.

I have always enjoyed the shows in past years. Climb Max is having an after party at the shop at 9:00 p.m. Alex Honnold is supposed to attend. Meet the man that is a current legend after soloing Half Dome in Yosemite
Why is patience a virture?
Because not many people have it.

Pune: This FIFA World Cup season is a very special time for the Poona District Football Association (PDFA). The associations, one of the few active football associations in the state, now has its own ground for football. The ground, which earlier was a barren land, has a green surface and a dressing room with compound walls. It will be the venue for live football action, PDFA leagues and the local matches to unfold from this year.
It was on August 24, 2009 that the PDFA announced that the 3.5 acres land will be leased, during its inuagration ceremony. Almost five years later, the ground is finally ready to be accessed by football enthusiasts. "The reason why it took us five years for the development of the land is that the flow of finance from the PMC and state was on snail speed. However, we are happy that the ground is now ready for action," said Pradeep Pardeshi, the PDFA secretary. It is for the first time since independence that the city association which produced many internationals has finally got a land to claim theirs.
"Over the years, we rented places for leagues and local tournaments. The ground came as a boon at the right time as most of the old places do not exist anymore," said Pardeshi, according to whom, if the state government speeds up the flow of finance, the stadium can be completed. This place could have had the turf in the India programme started by Fifa president Sepp Blatter in 2007, but the local corporation's six -year lease has hampered.
"It would also have been a big boost to the city, had the corporation (PMC) had signed a 30-year lease instead of a six-year. We could have been in the FIFA radar," Pardeshi adds.
The PDFA ground is situated at Survey No 61/P Mudhlair, Dobarwadi, near PMC School No 75, Ghorpadi.
