Researchers at the Kimmel Cancer Center have identified a protein, Akt1, that they say is key to helping one quarter of all breast cancers spread, while researchers at University of California, San Diego (UCSD) discovered that PHLPP2 inhibits this protein.
The Kimmel researchers bred mice missing the gene for Akt1, which normally plays a role in keeping cells alive by interfering with apoptosis, with other mice that overexpressed the HER2-neu (ErbB2) oncogene, which leads to approximately 25% of all breast cancers. They then examined the role of Akt1 in the onset and progression of breast cancer in the resulting offspring.
The study found that mice lacking two copies of the gene that produces Akt1 rarely had any tumors. Those mice that carried only one copy of the Akt1 gene developed some tumors, but they were small and developed more slowly. Mice with two copies of Akt1 rapidly developed significant cancer. The scientists also discovered that there was a requirement for Akt1 in metastasis.
The study also showed that Akt1 causes the cancer cells to secrete a factor, CXCL16, that promotes breast cancer cell migration. Without Akt, cancer cells failed to migrate. They also showed that deleting Akt1 completely blocked breast cancer metastasis to the lungs, while mice that expressed Akt1 died from lung metastasis. This study is reported online in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
The UCSD School of Medicine team published a study in the current edition of Molecular Cell that builds on their 2005 discovery of an enzyme, PH domain Leucine-rich repeat Protein Phosphatase (PHLPP), that is a natural tumor suppressor.
Previous research described the discovery of PHLPP, which turns off signaling of the Akt/protein kinase B. The new work describes a second family member, PHLPP2, which also inactivates Akt. However, PHLPP1 and PHLPP2 control three different disease pathways. While both are important in cancer, PHLPP 1 also impacts an important pathway in diabetes and PHLPP2 could be useful in fighting heart and neurological disease.
The researchers found that PHLPP1 controls Akt2, which is more closely involved in maintaining a constant level of glucose in the bloodstream, while PHLPP2, controls Akt1.
Policy proposals to address the growing global problem of fake medicines include a global agreement, similar to the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control, and stricter national laws to prosecute those who knowingly sell counterfeit medicines. Do you think these steps will be successful?

word puzzles, word search,
and trivia,
try the free printable puzzles on this website. "Crosswords are usually too hard or too easy for me, and word searches are always too easy. These CrosScan puzzles turned out to be just right ... Having tried many novel puzzles and been mildly disappointed, I really appreciate finding this gem." Chris McMullen, Louisiana CrosScan is a word search-crossword hybrid. A CrosScan puzzle consists of a letter block and a list of clues. Answers to the clues are found in the letter block. Each puzzle has a theme, and every answer fits into this theme. The theme is hidden through the use of double meanings in the clues, and will gradually emerge as the puzzle is worked. When all the words are found and circled, the leftover letters spell out a short quote relating to the theme. (To get a sense of how themes are hidden by clues with double meanings, you might want to try the IQ Topic Challenge.) For maximum enjoyment, we strongly recommend that you read the Instructions before beginning. |
Books Each book contains 84 puzzles. Book 3 will be available soon. order now order now |
Instructions DO
NOT start
with Clue
#1, #2, etc. That is the hard way.
1. Visually scan the letter block to discover words. Words can be read backward, forward, up, down, or diagonally. (Some find it useful to look for diagonal words first.) 2. When you find a word, count the number of letters. Find the clues which have that number indicated in parentheses. 3. Match the word you found with a clue. Check off the clue, and circle or highlight the word in the letter block. Do not circle a word in the letter block if you can't find a clue to match it. 4. Each puzzle contains a "star,'" in which words coming from every direction meet in one central letter. 5. When you find enough words to discover the theme, you should be able to work back and forth, using clues to find words. |

Built for Skiers. The Atomic Skiwear Lookbook 14/15.
ATOMIC young star Lisa Magdalena Agerer crowns her streak of success in the Europa Cup – 8 victories in a row in 3 different disciplines, 7 of these within 14 days – with the predominant victory of the Europa Cup. Additionally the 20-year-old Italian also wins the giant slalom and downhill ranking. On Sunday, Agerer will participate in the World Cup finals in Schladming.
ATOMIC Day in Schladming: two victories, three crystal globes and many tears of happiness! Marcel Hirscher risked everything in the second heat on his ATOMIC D2 RACE and it paid off – his 9th victory of the season, resulting in the victory of the giant slalom World Cup and the leadership of the overall World Cup by 25 points before the final slalom on Sunday. Michaela Kirchgasser won the slalom and Marlies Schild, ranking third, won her 5th crystal globe.
Passion and commitment have once again paid off for ANDREAS HåTVEIT Who showed incredible consistency by winning the BRONZE MEDAL AT EURO X GAMES, only a few days after winning the Austrian FREESKI open. THE ATOMIC Athlete just managed to squeeze past the eliminations the day before but brought his a-game to the finals, taking home his second X Games medal of the year, this time in Tignes, France. Americans Bobby Brown and Tom Wallisch rounded off the podium, taking first and second respectively.
3rd place in the forth World Cup super-G of his life! Marcel Hirscher accomplished a sensation at the season's finals in Schladming and gained 60 points on his ATOMIC D2 RACE. Two more races to go and the ATOMIC star might still win the overall World Cup; he's only behind by 75 points.
Fantastic performance by 22-year-old ATOMIC Young Star Tina Weirather. On the ATOMIC D2 RACE the Liechtensteiner finished on place 4 on the 2013 World Ski Championships slope in Schladming. This was her 8th top-10 result in 8 downhill races. This means: 2nd place in the downhill World Cup in her comeback season. Fantastic as well: ATOMIC All-Star Benjamin Raich surprised with his best downhill result – 5th place!
3rd place in giant slalom and 60 World Cup points for Marcel Hirscher. The race on the ATOMIC D2 RACE to catch up has started successfully at the double of technical events in Kranjska Gora. Hirscher will keep the Red Tricot in the giant slalom ranking until the season's finals in Schladming and is ahead by 92 points.
The elated Atomic athlete Andreas Hatveit is on top of the world! A flawless performance at the Austrian Freeski Open, presented by Atomic, earned him a second consecutive gold medal at the Slopestyle event in Kaprun, Austria.
The "ATOMIC Photo Shootout" is a competition to find the best action shot of 2012. You can enter on our Facebook page. The prize is a professional photo shoot for you and three friends.
Atomic is proud to present the 10th annivesary of Europe's premiere slopestyle competition, the Austrian Freeski Open. At its home resort of Kitzsteinhorn, the AFO will host the world's best freeskiers from the 7th to the 10th of March. Included in this elite group are Atomic's very own Elias Ambühl, Jossi Wells, and defending AFO champion Andreas Håtveit.
High-class skiing has many faces – in slalom, it was once again Marlies Schild's! Despite mistakes in both runs and 3rd place in the end, she has already gained the slalom World Cup title for the forth time. "It's great that everything's already settled. Now I will be able to race even more freely in the remaining races." Marlies is excited about slalom crystal globe #4 and still has the chance in this season to become the best female slalom racer of history.

480 BC: During the Second Persian invasion of Greece, the Naval Battle of Salamís occurs. A joint Greek fleet of ca 366 - 378 triremes from Athens, Sparta, Corinth, Megara, Croton (from S. Italy) and other Greek minor city-states, under the overall command of the Athenian Stratēgós (=Army leader, general) Themistocles, but nominally led by the Spartan Návarchos (=Ship leader, admiral), Eurybiades, defeated the Persian Achæmenid fleet of some 600 - 800 warships (triremes mostly) led by the eldest brother of Persian King Xerxes I, Ariabignes (or Ariamenes according to Plutarch). The Persian fleet sailed into the Straits of Salamís and tried to block both entrances. In the cramped conditions of the Straits the great Persian numbers were an active hindrance, as ships struggled to maneuver and became disorganised. Seizing the opportunity, the Greek fleet formed in line and scored a decisive victory, sinking or capturing at least 200 Persian ships. Ariabignes died in the battle.
480 BC: During the Greco-Punic Wars (a series of conflicts fought between the Carthaginians and the Greeks headed by Syracusans, over control of Sicily and western Mediterranean from 7th - 3rd c. BC), the Battle of Himéra occurs. A 50,000-strong, according to modern estimates, (according to Herodotus' account, 300,000) Carthaginian army comprised Iberians, Libyans, Carthaginians and Libyo-Phnecians, with Gaullic and Sardinian cavalry, under General Hamilcar, the son of Hanno, invaded Sicily and marched along the coast in order to capture the city of Himéra. The Greeks fielded a few tens of thousands (Herodotus and Diodorus Siculus give 50,000) hoplites, mostly from the major Greek city in Sicily, Syracuse, but also hired mercenaries from Greece and local Sicels and Sikans, under the overall command of the Tyrant (=Ruler) of Syracuse, Gelo, acting together with the Tyrant of Acragas (today's Agrigento in Sicily), Theron. About half of the Carthaginian army and majority of the fleet was destroyed, numerous prisoners and rich booty had fallen into Greek hands. The Greek historian Diodorus Siculus comments that "..the surviving Carthaginian ships were sunk in a storm on their return journey to Africa".

1364: During the Hundred Years' War, the Battle of Auray occurs. A 3,500-strong Anglo-Breton army, comprised English and Bretons led by Jean V the Conqueror, Duc de Montfort, assisted by Sir John Chandos, Viscount of Saint-Sauveur, defeated a 4,000-strong Franco-Breton army, under Charles of Blois. In the battle, the troops of Charles of Blois broke and fled and he was killed.
1848: During the Hungarian Revolution (the revolution in the Kingdom of Hungary that grew into a war for independence from Habsburg rule) the Battle of Pákozd occurs. Lt. Gen. János Móga in command of 27,000 Hungarians with 82 cannon, fought and defeated the Habsburg army, numbering from 35 - 40,000 men under Croatian Ban (=Ruler), Count Josip Jelačić of Buim. Although the Battle of Pákozd was one of the smaller of the Revolution, its consequences were very important. The battle became an icon for the Hungarian army because of its influence on politics and morale.

1941: During the night of 28 - 29 September, an insurrection against the Bulgarian occupation troops occured in the town of Doxáto, Drama Prefecture, Greece. The local police station in the town was attacked, leading to the death of 6 - 7 Bulgarian policemen. Although those who participated in the insurrection were killed or fled to the mountains, reprisals were harsh. The next day, Bulgarian forces rounded up all the men in town aged 14 and over, and after dividing them into groups of ten, executed them on the night of 29 September, 1941. 200 men were massacred.

Terms and Conditions of Award
The Student Information Worksheet has been eliminated. Instead, students must accept their Terms and Conditions of Award on WEBSTAR prior to disbursement of financial aid funds. You can access the Terms and Conditions from the financial aid menu in WEBSTAR. Simply choose "My Award Information", then choose " Award by Aid Year" and you will see the Terms and Conditions tab. Students are responsible for reading the linked document carefully before clicking on the accept button. This requirement must be satisfied before aid will be disbursed.
Pell Grant Disbursement Changes
Pell Grant funds will now be divided into 3 disbursements for primary terms (Fall and Spring). The first scheduled disbursement for eligible students with completed files will be the Friday before the semester begins in order for students to purchase books and supplies needed for school. Cal Grant and Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant disbursements will still be disbursed at 100% approximately 4 weeks after the semester begins. Scheduled Pell Grant disbursement dates are listed below:
Fall 2014 | Spring 2015 | |
25% of Pell Grant | August 15, 2014 | February 12, 2015 |
25% of Pell Grant | September 12, 2014 | March 13, 2015 |
50% of Pell Grant | October 10, 2014 | April 24, 2015 |
We encourage students to set up a budget and spend their financial aid funds wisely, they need to last throughout the semester. Visit our cash course website for assistance in making a personalized budget: http://www.cashcourse.org/home.aspx
Elimination of Book Vouchers
Because financial aid funds will be disbursed to eligible students prior to the start of the term, the Book Voucher Program has been eliminated. Financial aid funds disbursed are to be used for educational expenses including books, supplies, transportation, and living expenses. The amount of your disbursement will depend on eligibility and the enrollment status at the authorization date.
Awarding in advance of annual Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) evaluations
Financial aid awarding for eligible students with complete files will begin in Spring for the upcoming Fall. Thus awarding will begin in advance of the annual SAP evaluations. All awards are tentative with actual funding based individual enrollment status and maintaining of Satisfactory Academic Progress standards. Awards may be canceled if you do not meet SAP standards at the annual evaluation which occurs after Spring grades are posted. We encourage students to login to their WEBSTAR student account and view messages and requirements regarding their financial aid status.
Work-study Process
The work-study process has changed for the 2014-15 award year. On a first-completed, first- awarded basis, students who have checked that they are interested in work-study on question 31 of the FAFSA and been determined eligible will receive a work-study offer in WEBSTAR. This award must be accepted on WEBSTAR in order for the student to receive additional instructions via email on how to secure a position. Work-study funds are very limited and all offers will be canceled once enough students have accepted to fill available positions. In addition, there is no guarantee of job placement even if an offer has been accepted. Securing a work-study position is the responsibility of the student.

US 5274507 A Abstract A parallel data encoding method in single disk drive units. The method can be applied to botb bard disc drives and floppies. None or little change is required in the Present Physical construction of disk drives. The invention permits standard error detection and correction methods. Construction of multiple heads per surface is also introduced to facilitate the parallel encoding of data for floppies and compact hard disc drive units and to decrease average track seek time.
Claims(1) 1. A high performance disk storage system comprising:
at least one disk with each disk having two surfaces, said disks being mounted coaxially, said disks having at least one surface with corresponding head for reading or writing data digits, said disk storage system having at least two heads; said disk storage system comprising disk means containing stored data, wherein data is stored on said disk means of said disk storage system in the form of data digits, each data digit being written to the surfaces by a plurality of different heads at or about the same time during a write cycle, each said data digit being read from the surfaces by said plurality of different heads at or about the same time during a read cycle; means coupled to said plurality of different heads for reading/writing the data digits from/to the disk means thereof and for producing the data digits electrical signals corresponding thereto; wherein each said data digit comprises a binary bit; wherein the digits are written to or read from said disk means in parallel. Description 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to computer systems and, in particular, to improve internal data transfer rates of disk drive type of memories for use with computer systems. 2. Description of the Prior Art Computers commonly include disk storage systems for secondary memory storage, having moving media on which data can be read or written to. Such disk storage systems are commonly referred to as disk drive units. Typically, magnetic or optical disk drive units incorporate single or stacked commonly rotated disks for storing data on the surfaces. Data is recorded sequentially on circular data information tracks spaced radially apart on each surface. A magnetic transducer or an optical head reads or writes the data on each disk surface. The process of reading or writing such data to disks is a sequential process. A particular disk surface and track is selected and data is written to or read from the track. After this another track and/or surface is selected and the process is repeated. A significant time loss, known as "cylinder skew" or "seek time", occurs when moving the head(s) between data tracks in different geometrical cylinders. In order to avoid cylinder skew time loss, data is frequently organized sequentially on tracks that are located in the same geometrical cylinder but on different surfaces. Another time loss, known as "head skew", occurs when switching from a track on one surface to the next in the same cylinder. In practice the starting points of these surface data tracks are offset by several sector data units to account for this. Disk drive units may have additional surfaces and tracks, referred to as "servo surfaces, tracks and heads", for controlling the positioning of the data heads over the data tracks. This invention is not concerned with servo control. In part because of the sequential nature of the process and track and head skew delay, the data transfer rate to and from the disk surfaces is considerably slower than main computer memory. To improve the data transfer rate from or to the disk surfaces, industry standard disk drive interfaces like "Integrated Drive Electronics" (IDE) and Small Computer System Interfaces (SCSI) frequently incorporate larger on-board buffer or cache memories which can hold several tracks of data read from the disk surface or written to it. This can significantly improve peak data transfer rates. However the actual average and continuous transfer rate from disk drives is still limited by the drive mechanism and its sequential data reading and writing method, head skew and track skew delays. A significant performance increase has been developed using an array (a plurality) of disk drive units with coordinating external disk rotation electronics. An example of that is the Micropolis Corporation Parallel Drive Array, Model 1804 SCSI, that uses four parallel synchronized disk drive units and one redundant parity drive. Another example is that of U.S. Pat. No. 4,722,085 where 39 disk drive units are used to achieve a 32 bit parallel transfer rate--the other 7 being for error correction. Examples of other efforts in the array method are U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,914,656 and 4,974,156. These have mainly tried to to improve error detection and correction. The array method is cumbersome both in physical size and the additional external coordinating electronics required. These factors make manufacturing costly for small business and personal computer market. The method does not address the head skew and cylinder skew problems inherent in individual drive units. A principal object of this invention is to incorporate parallel data transfer from and/or to disk surfaces in single disk drive units to significantly improve data transfer rates to and from data tracks of disk surfaces. The disk drive unit includes a plurality of disk data heads and one or more disk surfaces mounted for simultaneous rotation about an axis. The method uses a plurality of data write and/or read heads per disk drive to encode plural data digits in parallel, each of the plural heads writing and/or reading one data digit of each data word concurrently. A further benefit of the invention is that the head skew time is eliminated for all plural heads used in writing and/or reading in parallel. FIG. 1 A disk storage system for illustrating parallel write and/or read process of the invention. FIG. 2 A disk storage system with plural heads per surface for illustrating parallel read and/or write process in compact disk units. This invention introduces parallel data encoding within a signal disk drive unit. Referring to FIG. 1, the diagram shows a partially schematic diagram of a computer disk drive unit 10 with data storage medium 12, disk drive controller unit 14 and interface 16. The disk drive unit shown includes a stack of disks 18 mounted coaxially for common rotation by a spindle and motor assembly 30. Data write and/or read heads 22 are mounted with integral head arms 24 and drive motor 26 assembly which moves the heads to the required radial position. Disks 18 include surfaces 20 with media for storing data. Data is stored on each of the surfaces 20 on plural concentric data tracks. Eight heads are shown for illustration purposes. Any number of heads/surfaces could have served the purpose. In the conventional process a file, or portions of it, are written and/or read in SEQUENTIAL fashion as a series of data digits on a selected track and surface. The interface 16 selects a particular data head from heads 22, and particular data track on the corresponding surface. A memory buffer or cache memory 15 is frequently used to temporarily hold data which is read from the disks or is to be written to the disks. In a read process the track data or portion of is read by the specific head and sent through the corresponding signal channel selected from one of h0 through h7. The data is stored in a memory buffer or the interface cache memory and already in buffer or cache memory 15 the interface can quickly respond to read requests without the need for controller reading the specific track data. In a write process the interface receives data to be written to a specific track or portion and a surface. Data is stored in a buffer or cache memory The controller then writes the data to the corresponding track and surface address. In the preferred embodiment of this invention the data digits are written to and/or read from the tracks on drive surfaces in a parallel fashion using a plural number of heads concurrently. In a read process the required data on plural tracks are read in parallel by the corresponding plural heads and sent through corresponding signal channels selected from h0 through h7. The data is stored in memory buffer or cache memory and then sent on to the computer. In a write process the interface 16 receives data for writing and stores it in memory buffer or cache memory 15. The controller subsequently writes the data in parallel sending signals through corresponding channels selected from h0 through h7 to the corresponding plural heads. The performance of this invention would be directly proportional to the number of heads used in parallel writing and/or reading. In FIG.-1 if all heads are used in parallel reading and/or writing, the transfer rate could be eight times the standard one-head-at-a-time sequential rate. For example, an eight bit data word would be written and or read in same time as a one bit transfer would occur in a conventional system. For sixteen heads at a time the transfer rate could be sixteen times as much, and so on. A further significant benefit of this invention is the elimination of head skew time delay for all heads used in the parallel write and/or read process. i.e. no time is required for head switching for the plural heads used concurrently. A partial problem may exist applying this invention to newer and smaller disk drive units, frequently having fewer surfaces but higher track and data densities. The fewer surfaces and heads would benefit less from the parallel data encoding of this invention. A simple way to solve this problem is to construct plural heads per surface. FIG.-2 shows an illustrative, partially schematic diagram of a four surface and sixteen head disk storage system of this invention. The parallel write and/or read process of this invention is the same as for the previous eight head example. But in this case up to sixteen heads can be used in parallel concurrently. A further significant benefit of plural heads per surface of this invention is a reduction in cylinder skew time delay and hence in track seek time. For example, if the data surface is evenly divided among the plural heads per surface, each head would be assigned only the corresponding fraction of surface tracks to move across. This reduces the average seek time by the same factor as the number of heads per surface since the geometrical distance the heads are required to travel is proportionally less. The parallel data encoding of this invention might pose problems for computer operating systems. The specific location of writing and or reading of data digits within the disk drive unit could be under the control of the computer operating system, in which case the operating system software would have to be specifically written for that purpose. However, the parallel method of this invention could be also made transparent to the operating system by being built into the interface and be compatible with common operating systems. One way of having this invention compatible with common operating systems is for the interface electronics to make the drive look like fewer heads but more sectors, a process known in the industry as "drive translation". For example, with eight heads and surfaces of FIG-1., eight data digits or bits encoded in parallel could be made to look to the operating system as stored on a single high density surface with eight times the number of usual 512 byte sectors. The disk drive illustrated in FIG.-2 could be translated to look like two surfaces with eight times the number of sectors or even one surface with sixteen times the normal sectors. While the invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to preferred embodiments thereof, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.

XS Old Crustacean Barley Wine
user ratingAn unfiltered and unrefined Barleywine. Intense, robust, malty and dark. The cognac of beers.
In Britain, seasonal brews for winter are robust, malty and dark. The two main styles of these brews are Old Ales and Barleywines. As the name suggests, barleywines are similar to wines in alcohol and need aging but are derived from grain, not the grape. Rogue's barleywine is described by beer expert Stuart Ramsey as: "A masterful, intense creation from brewer John Maier....it has achieved a depth and complexity usually associated with well-ages strong ales. I hope the brewery bottles some before it disappears."
Rogue is a small revolution, which expresses itself through handcrafted ales, porters, stouts, lagers and spirits. The spirit of the Rogue brand suggests doing things differently, a desire and a willingness to change the status quo. We do what we do to become a meaningful industry leader through the products we create and by building an organization that is successful without being big, bureaucratic or common. The best leaders lead by example and by doing things the right way, even if it means going against the grain. We make products for the connoisseur, the entrepreneur and the revolutionist.

Morse edges ahead in fire district race
Incumbent Larry Morse slightly increased his lead over challenger Jerry Goen in the tight race for a seat on the North Whidbey Fire and Rescue commission.
The Island County Auditor's Office counted a second batch of ballots Thursday, but little changed in Central and North Whidbey races. As of Friday morning, 20,511 ballots were received, which is a 43-percent voter turnout rate.
Morse had 1,759 votes and Goen had 1,716 ballots cast in his favor in the latest count. That's a margin of 43 votes, up from the 38-vote difference at last count.
Scott Dudley maintained his lead over Gerry Oliver in the race for a seat on the Oak Harbor City Council. Dudley has 1,396 votes and Oliver has 1,184.
In the Coupeville Town Council race, Tom Tack is ahead of Sue Cunningham by 304 to 242 votes.
In a contested race for a position on Cemetery District 1 commission, Susan Byington is ahead of Jim Smith by 2,511 to 2,167 votes. The district covers Oak Harbor.
It appears that voters in Island and Snohomish counties approved an increase in the property tax levy rate to fund the Sno-Isle Library District. Island County voters just barely approved of the measure, with 9,898 voting to approve and 9,639 voting to reject.
But voters in Snohomish County were more decisive in their approval, with 50,690 voting in favor and 46,686 voting against.
Island County voters mimicked statewide voters in casting ballots on a well-publicized initiative and referendum.
County voters soundly rejected Tim Eyman's Initiative 1033, which would have limited tax increases in state and local government. A total of 10,565 people cast ballots against it, while 9,506 voted for it. That's a margin of more than 5 percent.
In addition, voters in Island County were in favor of Referendum 71, the so-called "everything but marriage" law. In all, 10,760 people voted to approve it and 9,510 voted to reject it. That's a margin of more than 6 percent.

Defining an Acidosis-Based Ischemic Penumbra from pH-Weighted MRI.

Abstract | It has been proposed that the spatial mismatch between deficits on perfusion-weighted imaging (PWI) and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) in MRI can be used to decide regarding thrombolytic treatment in acute stroke. However, uncertainty remains about the meaning and reversibility of the perfusion deficit and even part of the diffusion deficit. Thus, there remains a need for continued development of imaging technology that can better define a potentially salvageable ischemic area at risk of infarction. Amide proton transfer (APT) imaging is a novel MRI method that can map tissue pH changes, thus providing the potential to separate the PWI/DWI mismatch into an acidosis-based penumbra and a zone of benign oligemia. In this totally noninvasive method, the pH dependence of the chemical exchange between amide protons in endogenous proteins and peptides and water protons is exploited. Early results in animal models of ischemia show promise to derive an acidosis penumbra. Possible translation to the clinic and hurdles standing in the way of achieving this are discussed. |

my dept policy
i am a member of cameron rural fire dept in cameron north carolina i have been a firefighter for almost 6 months and have almost completed my fire fighter 1&2 certification and i am working on my ERT cert. about a week ago we had a new member join and we didn't have a pager to give him. mine was taken and givein to another junior member with about a month of service and no training what so ever. we i asked my LT about this he stated that it was becuase the other junior member was older. is this a good policy and if not what do i do to try to get it changed
because he was older? Jesus, that sounds funny. You have more training and could be more useful at calls. You should be the one with the pager. The only way a pager gets taken from a jr in my department is if it's going to a FF that is cert.
Sounds like you got the short end of the stick here.Firefighter, Volunteering since Oct 2001
CCFA 05-04, best overall class for 2005
Yeah you got screwed my friend
That is absolutely ridiculous...Why give a complete newbie a pager because he's older..Stupid...Your usefull on a fire scene,He's useless...Doesn't make senseIf someone with multiple personalities threatens to kill himself, is it considered a hostage situation?
Age should have no factor in the process of deciding which jr., explorer, shall be in access to a pager.
The fact of the matter is the necessity for a pager should be solely warranted by ones usefulness on a fires scene. And being that you have a lot more certifications and training then this new junior, you should have the pager.
As far as how to get your pager back, I wouldnt go rampaging saying you are more useless and etc. etc... But I would take the issue to an officer, particularly the LT. that you spoke to in the first place and calmly state your case. Perhaps in the end of things they might get another pager for you.
In my dept. we were issue pagers at first by who was most active, which happened to be the officers, so at that point, only officers had pagers, which could be argued appropriate, but could also be argued inappropriate. But it was based on the extent of activeness our Explorers had, so in that regards that is acceptable in my mind. But then the rest of the Explorers were issued pagers, they also were based on activeness. It seems odd that it was done that way, but when the first pagers were dealt there were not a lot of them to go around. So they decided that way, and then did it again for the others.JLS

I had something happen kind of like that. I have been a member of a post for about 1 year. But I came from another post(4yrs), I know my stuff. We just had someone join who is currently going through school for his FF I&II. He thinks he is god. He just thinks that we are Bull S*** explorers. He is constantly forgeting day 1 stuff, such as SAFETY, and work in pairs, he wants to fight fire "Freelance style." He thinks he can go into a brun prop without a hood,(hell when I went through the sim, I could feel that heat through everything.)When told by an officer to wear a hood, he makes a face as he walks away and acts surpriesed. (I learned that if you want to go anywhere, LISTEN TO THE OFFICERS.) He thinks that firefighting is just a joke and that it is a piece of cake. Well, its not. And just because someone has his FF I&II does not make him better than everyone else. His screw ups look a whole lot worse now that he has his certifications. I just dont see how someone can forget some of the most important items that can mean life or death.
Back to your subject, I totaly agree with you, you are trained and he is not. He is a liability if he is responding.FF I

You know when I need a coupon and I am not sure if I have one, I FIRST search my blog. I type in a key word in the search bar on the left hand side just under my picture. If that doesn't work, I go to the coupon database... again on the left hand side, near the coupon links. If there is still no luck I will just google it.
Often when I google a store +"coupon" I get a list of sites and many of them contain just coupon codes. If I am shopping online that is great! However, sometimes the codes are expired and I am stuck searching for quite a while or just giving up and not buying the item (you know I don't buy anything without a coupon or discount!)
My friend, Amanda just emailed me to let me know of this other site (CouponChief.com) that actually works and you can choose by store (thousands in alphabetical order), then you can choose by the code's success rate! Those rates come from readers like you!
I have bookmarked CouponChief.com and will be using it quite often in the future! Check it out and let me know what you like about it! Leave me a comment!

Trip Start
Sep 28, 2005
Trip End
Dec 24, 2007
It is a wonderful place but absolutly packed with Chinese tourists!
I arived after a relitevly painless bus journey and was droped in the new town. I knew i needed to get to the old town and Olga's message told me there was a free pickup[ but i decided to have a bit of a walk. After speaking to a few people in sign language and with lots of pointing i worked out which way to go. I arived in the old town about 20 mins later and it was lovely so i decided to wonder around and try to find the hostel - Mama Naxi - how hard could it be? Its only a small town................... Well............... 2.5 hours later i was still wondering around! I had asked so many people and they either didnt know the name of the place or kept directing me to a restaurant called Mamas - not very usefull!!!!
Eventually 1 woman knew the place and directed me to the right area and then i bumped into a few other lost french people but they had the card for the hostel so we asked a few people and even though we were only 2 streets away still didnt know!! God knows how olga herd about this place! I eventually arived and first impressions were not all that good. All four of the Israilis were not there but every other Israili in China was there! I got a bed in a dorm and slept hoping life would be a little easier when i awoke.
Behold! Life is much easier now. I met an Israili guy who told me that the others are at a village nearby and it is dinner time! I sat with an English guy called Dave from B'ham a Kiwi called Lee and three Swedish girls - Molly, Sofie and Marie. We had a great meal and i decided i would go to a place called the Tiger Leaping George with the 3 Swedish girls.
The 4 Isrilis came in next and told me they were staying at some other place around the courner as they thought it was too noisy (to be honest i think they were being a bit pedantic) so i decided to spend the evening with my new found friends and they are all funny funny people. Dave is the same age as me so we had loads in common and Lee is one of the funnyiest people i have met so it was great to hang out with them. Molly and Sofie are two 20 year old Swedish girls and Marie is a 30 year old teacher. We had a great night as we went to 'Bar Street'. Here there are the two sides of the street seperated by a river and both sides aim to make more noise than the other by banging pots and pans as loud as possible! Its great - me and Dave took this to the extreme and i think we embarrased the Swedish girls a bit but it was so funny - the locals loved us - they sing their songs which all end in Hang Song, Hang Song, Hang Song Song and we sing football songs like ' the refere's a w**ker! After a botlle of extremely strong liquer between us we walked home when i bumped into Olga and her friend - it turns out they will be in Tiger Leaping George tomorrow so i will see the 4 of them there.
In the morning i awoke really early to a loud girl ariving from Austraila called Debbie, she and a guy who became known as the 'King of Denmark'. Debbie knew Molly and Sofie so she made a snap decision to join us so i was in a very lucky situation of going on a 2 day treck with 4 women!
The 1st day of the treck was really really hard. I had no footwear and with my toe nail a very funy colour from my previous treck my feet wernt in the best condition, to make matters worse i did the whole thing in my flip flops! The 1st day started with a 3 hour minibus ride which Mama sorted out for us and then we had a big ascent but the scenery was reath taking. I spent most the time chatting to Debbie as the 3 Swedish girls were enjoying their Swedish. We stoped for lunch for ome fried rice and Olga and the 3 Israili muscateers caught us up. It was nice to have a brief chat with them and then we set off again. We had to go up to the sumit of the '28 bends' which semed more like 28,000,000! Debbie and i eventually got to the top and the others arived about 309 mins later so we spent the last 3 hours of the treck on a nice gradual descent - it was amazing with the scenery all around as you walk along the gorge with iced caped mountains either side.
We got to our sleeping poiunt and i shared the dorm with Debbie and Marie. There were 2 English guys there and so we spent the night chatting nand i made the effort to go over to Olga and the muscateers speradically.
The 2nd day of the treck was only bout 3 hours or so and nice and easy. I spent the time walking with Sofie as the others were lagging behind and we got back to the end an hour before the others! We sat in the sun sipping our victory drink and waited for our lift, we waited and waited and it soon became apparent it wasnt coming. As ni had called before i got Debbie to call Mama Nasi and there had been some confusion but it came in the end.
The evening was spent mainly with Molly on the search for chocolate. Every random streanger that came up to talk to us (which there were many) we kept telling outragous lies to for example we were maried on honeymoon or bro and sis - it was very funny! We also bought 24 bottles of small wine which the group demolished in the evening. It will be a real shame to leave tomorrow as i have loved my time here with everyone. Its not all bad though as Marie is coming with e and i have a feeling Olga and the 3 muscateers are coming as well as Dave and Lee - in fact the only people who wont be there are Debbie and the 2 Swedish girls.

1995 Gran Canaria: A Tour Around Yumbo 25 Oct 1995 Now you've seen how I spend my days. In my last web report I mentioned the the Canarian air. Eivissa is sub-tropical, but Gran Canaria is tropical. The air is hot and dry, and the smells of tropical plants is very different than the dusty smell of Eiviscenco fauna. The sounds are very different too. In Eivissa I was in a small town, far away from tourists. Playa del Inglés is the center of all tourist activity in the Canaries. With this in mind I've chosen to take you on a short tour of a huge shopping complex called - appropriately enough - Yumbo. When I was here last Yumbo was just a big hole in the ground. And I mean big. Yumbo takes up an entire city block, but instead of an enclosed above-ground mall (as is typical in the USA), Yumbo is an open-air submerged mall. Four levels of stores are built into the walls of the hole and their doors and windws look outward to the children's playground in the center. The west entrance is the main one: |

Nafcillin Injection
Nafcillin Side Effects Center
Medical Editor: John P. Cunha, DO, FACOEP
Nafcillin (Brand Names: Nallpen, Unipen) is used to treat many different types of infections, especially those caused by staphylococcus bacteria ("staph" infections). It is an antibiotic in the penicillin group of drugs. This medication is available in generic form. Common side effects include pain at the injection site if this medication is injected into a muscle.
Nafcillin is administered as an intravenous infusion. The usual I.V. dosage for adults is 500 mg every 4 hours. For severe infections, 1 g every 4 hours is recommended. Nafcillin may interact with cyclosporine, blood thinners, or antibiotics. Tell your doctor all medications and supplements you use. During pregnancy, Nafcillin should be used only when prescribed. This drug passes into breast milk. Consult your doctor before breastfeeding.
Our Nafcillin Side Effects Drug Center provides a comprehensive view of available drug information on the potential side effects when taking this medication.
This is not a complete list of side effects and others may occur. Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088.

Nafcillin FDA Prescribing Information: Side Effects
(Adverse Reactions)
Body as a Whole
The reported incidence of allergic reactions to penicillin ranges from 0.7 to 10 percent (see WARNINGS). Sensitization is usually the result of treatment, but some individuals have had immediate reactions to penicillin when first treated. In such cases, it is thought that the patients may have had prior exposure to the drug via trace amounts present in milk or vaccines. Two types of allergic reactions to penicillins are noted clinically, immediate and delayed.
Immediate reactions usually occur within 20 minutes of administration and range in severity from urticaria and pruritus to angioneurotic edema, laryngospasm, bronchospasm, hypotension, vascular collapse, and death. Such immediate anaphylactic reactions are very rare (see WARNINGS) and usually occur after parenteral therapy but have occurred in patients receiving oral therapy. Another type of immediate reaction, an accelerated reaction, may occur between 20 minutes and 48 hours after administration and may include urticaria, pruritus, and fever.
Although laryngeal edema, laryngospasm, and hypotension occasionally occur, fatality is uncommon. Delayed allergic reactions to penicillin therapy usually occur after 48 hours and sometimes as late as 2 to 4 weeks after initiation of therapy. Manifestations of this type of reaction include serum sickness-like symptoms (i.e., fever, malaise, urticaria, myalgia, arthralgia, abdominal pain) and various skin rashes. Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomatitis, black or hairy tongue, and other symptoms of gastrointestinal irritation may occur, especially during oral penicillin therapy.
Local Reactions
Pain, swelling, inflammation, phlebitis, thrombophlebitis, and occasional skin sloughing at the injection site have occurred with intravenous administration of nafcillin. (See DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION.) Severe tissue necrosis with sloughing secondary to subcutaneous extravasation of nafcillin has been reported.
Nervous System Reactions
Neurotoxic reactions similar to those observed with penicillin G could occur with large intravenous or intraventricular doses of nafcillin especially in patients with concomitant hepatic insufficiency and renal dysfunction. (See PRECAUTIONS).
Urogenital Reactions
Renal tubular damage and interstitial nephritis have been associated infrequently with the administration of nafcillin. Manifestations of this reaction may include rash, fever, eosinophilia, hematuria, proteinuria, and renal insufficiency.
Gastrointestinal Reactions
Pseudomembranous colitis has been reported with the use of nafcillin. The onset of pseudomembranous colitis symptoms may occur during or after antibiotic treatment (see WARNINGS).
Metabolic Reactions
Agranulocytosis, neutropenia, and bone marrow depression have been associated with the use of nafcillin.

Some of the iDrive skins have /discardable in them (usually ones which shouldn't be used too often), so make sure ones you are preloading don't have /discardable in them.
preloading the screens seemed to work...but only after i've opened a screen. so for example, if i click EXIT, it'd take 2-3 seconds for the exit menu to pop up, but any time after that the exit window would open up instantly.
i also tried lowering the hardware accel. by a notch and lowering the resolution to 16bit but there wasn't a noticeable difference in screen load times.
right now, it's a bit more bearable than it was previously...but if anybody has any more ideas, i'm open to suggestions.
Some of the iDrive skins have /discardable in them (usually ones which shouldn't be used too often), so make sure ones you are preloading don't have /discardable in them.
just thought i'd post what led to success in resolving my issues.
since enforcer did a good job in compiling his skin with imgs of low file size, i followed other suggestions from: Slow RoadRunner Performance (post 3).
i was infact preloading one .skin file with /discardable, but aside from that, i preloaded most of my common menus and aside from an extra 3-5 second wait for inital load, movement from screen to screen is fluent.
now...the only issue i'm facing is that i can't get the iphone skin working because it's flash based and i'm just going to assume that it would be too much of a pain to optimize my hardware to accommodate it. if, in my ignorance, i'm making an incorrect assumption, your corrections are appreciated.
thnx again for your input guys.
Well the images were exported at full jpg quality, so they are quite heavy (well I thought so anyway).
However the new transparent ones the off an on images are very small, just the empty images have got a bit bigger ????
Thanks Enforcer...I will also add that to the preload screen function in the new config, which you might have also suggested...
Heavy??? WTF, leaving them as BMP's, NOW thats heavy...
In my observations from recently using PNG's is that compressing them all the way not only doesn't degrade the pic but they also usually end up having a smaller file size as the jpg verions.

Since grapes grow so incredibly fast within a single growing season, you can teach them not only about gardening, but also about where food comes from. We all know the importance of getting kids off of the couch, away from the TV and into the garden (for a whole variety of reasons!) and one of the easiest, and tastiest, ways to do that is by planting something edible.
Living so close to Sonoma Valley, I thought it would be fun to have our own little 'crush' with our one grapevine. I originally planted this vine for ornamental reasons only, as it has incredible red fall foliage (the variety is a California native called 'Roger's Red'). My one vine quickly grew 30 feet, draping softly over my arbor and aviary. The grape itself has lots of little seeds, making it somewhat difficult to eat, but since it's such a beautiful vine I didn't care.
Every year the vine produces more and more grapes, and this year is no exception. We usually eat our fair share, leaving the rest on the vine as a snack for the birds.
One Saturday morning, my daughter woke up and decided she really wanted to make grape juice with all of the grapes. Since I try to seize any activity that my 15 year old wants to do with me (they're getting fewer and further between), I grabbed my husband and we dove right in.
It was actually much easier than I thought it would be. I was prepared for a messy job, and the grim possibility of my family abandoning me after about 15 minutes. But they hung in there until the very end and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it!
Here's the step-by-step process, resulting in some of the best grape juice I've ever tasted:
Obviously, the first step is to pick your grapes. Using Fiskars Telescoping Power-Lever Bypass Loppers made it super easy to reach those clusters of grapes that were just far enough out of reach.
The next step is de-stemming the grapes. If you decide to skip this step and leave the stems on, the crushed stems can make the juice taste 'woody' and 'tannic'.
After rinsing the grapes, it was time for one of the most critical steps of this process. WASHING FEET! Remember, those feet will be making the juice that you'll soon be drinking so make sure they're squeaky clean!
The next step is the most fun of all for kids. With freshly cleaned feet, stomp away until every one of those teeny tiny grapes is crushed! Depending on each kid's 'zest for stomping' this could take 15 to 45 minutes.
You'll then need to separate the juice from the skins and seeds. It's best to use a colander with really small holes in it to filter out as much 'junk' as you can. It's also helpful to use a pastry blender to mash down the skins, allowing even more juice to flow. It's also a good idea to filter the juice one last time through a few layers of cheesecloth to remove the tiniest of particles.
After a quick boil on the stove to gently pasteurize the juice, you'll have several pitchers of strong and tasty grape juice! Either dilute the juice with water, or mix with a little seltzer water or 7-Up for a bubbly treat.

Student Slams Teacher To the Ground For Taking His Phone in Class [VIDEO]
When I was in school, we respected our elders. Talking back to the teacher would earn you a trip to the Principal's office. Now a days, this is what happens in school. A student in New Jersey attacked his 62 year old teacher for taking his phone away. If that's not bad enough, the rest of the students just sat around and watched.

Electric Car Charging Station Installed at Stonehill
Electric car owners can now charge their cars at a station behind the Sports Complex. Installed by Solect Energy Development, the station went live in early January.
Stonehill Celebrates Completion of 2.7 Megawatt Solar Field
The field is expected to save the College over $185,000 a year or an estimated $3.2 million over the course of a 15-year contract it signed with New Jersey-based Marina Energy. The energy produced is expected to account for 20% of Stonehill's electrical usage.
Stonehill Named "Green" College by Princeton Review
As the world celebrates Earth Day, Stonehill is proud to announce its inclusion in "The Princeton Review's Guide to 332 Green Colleges: 2014 Edition."
Energizing Stonehill's Commitment To Green Living
Sue Mooney, Environmental Studies Program director and chair of the Environmental Stewardship Council, says she could see how growing student awareness was going to create an ecological juggernaut here on campus. "It's powerful stuff," she says. "Students go from knowledge to action."
Cultivating A Living Classroom
What does a farm have to do with sociology? Religion? World history? For some Stonehill faculty, the answer is: more than you might think. They're finding innovative ways to tie a 1.5-acre parcel of land on Stonehill's campus to lessons they're teaching in the classroom.
Stonehill aims to promote awareness of environmental issues in our community and around the world through community based learning, educational programs and events, and campus wide initiatives that will encourage environmentally friendly practices among students, faculty and staff. By integrating the practice of sustainability into everyday life at Stonehill, students and graduates are able to think, act and lead with courage toward the creation of a more just, compassionate and sustainable world.

Pretty Little Liars Burning Question: Where Is Lucas?
For a town as seemingly small as Rosewood, Lucas Gottesman (Brendan Robinson) certainly has managed to stay off the Liars' radar on Pretty Little Liars. Sure, the kid's home-schooled now, but he must eat and consume coffee, right? His long-term absence from our screens — he hasn't been seen since mid-Season 3 — makes us highly suspicious. Where is Lucas?
Avoiding Ezra
Lucas allegedly dropped out of Rosewood High because he felt his life was endanger (which probably makes him the smartest character on this show), presumably because of Mona's return. But what if it isn't a student at the school who has Lucas on edge, but a teacher? The timing doesn't watch up precisely. Lucas told Hanna he has decided to become homeschooled a handful of episodes before Ezra returned to the school, but Ezra could have put in his paperwork around that time. Basically, with all of the craziness that is coming out about Ezra, we wouldn't be surprised if Lucas's absence doesn't have anything to do with Mr. Fitz.
Working for Ezra
On the other hand, Lucas could easily be Ezra's minion. After all, he's worked for "A" before, and being homeschooled certainly gives him the flexible schedule for conducting "A" shenanigans. In the Season 4 winter premiere, the person we see opening the creepy cabin's basement door is wearing Converse, which just so happens to be Lucas's established shoe of choice. Could Lucas be meeting Ezra for an "A" Team meeting? It would make the perfect location for a planning session given that these two have no reason to hang out otherwise with Lucas withdrawn from Rosewood High. Other evidence in the Lucas is working for Ezra case study: Lucas has an extensive background working with photography. He could have been the one to take those pictures we saw in the "A" lair in the summer finale. Heck, maybe that's what he's doing with all of his free time. And the reason why Ezra was so suspicious of his talking to Aria outside the photography studio in Season 3, Episode 5 ("That Girl is Poison").
Helping Alison
Alison and Lucas were never exactly friends — in fact, she bullied him terribly. But, we're beginning to think Alison has more friends than we originally thought. Or, at least her potential twin does. Whichever DiLaurentis it is the Liars are now in contact with, she needs help, and we think she may already have it from some Rosewood peeps. Lucas's homeschooling excuse could allow him to meet with Alison when everyone else — including Ezra — is at school, or even to leave town to meet up with her if the situation called for it. Could Lucas be helping Alison? We'd like to think so. We've always wanted to believe the best of this character.
What do you think Lucas is up to? Share your theories in the comments below!

I would have given a rating of good or even excellent if it weren't for the construction that has just started Read More in the lot next to my building. They will be shoving a new building into a tiny lot, with maybe four feet in between. Before I was looking out my window to a lovely tree. Now I'll be looking at a wall or someone else's window. We've requested numerous times for this little outdoor spot to have picnic tables and a community grill added, now we are losing it all together.

IT clean and modern, with one exception: the front door access system is designed for the 20th century (when p Read Moreeople had land line telephones). Many residents do not have landlines anymore, and this is a problem that is only going to become more acute as applications like Apple TV and Netflix push cable aside. The door bell should ring in the house. The result of the current system is that piles of things get left, without security, in the front lobby and deliveries are hard to make.

A friend introduced me to this guy. He is pretty awesome. [youtube]CFjMeOnqAPI[/youtube] [youtube]Ixo2vmT3fBY&feature=branded[/youtube] [youtube]Y7De_DDqBtc&feature=related[/youtube]
Dude many thanks for posting these links, totally dig this type of music and i hadn't heard his stuff before. <---- Petey approves!!
Coincidence, he was musical guest on Jimmy Fallon last night. Scroll halfway down the page and the video is there.
More thanks for that. Liked his sound: you could hear the influences, but it's not copycat at all. Oh, what Gibson is he playing? An ES?
I'm always happy to share good music. You're welcome. Cool, thanks. It won't be long before this guy is all over the place. He is pretty damn good.
He's one of my favorite artist, love this song he's a modern day Hendrix [youtube]YrkJl70Ys1M[/youtube]
