The term "insect" refers to a class of invertebrates within the arthropod phylum in the animal kingdom. The insecta class is massive; with more than 1 million species, it is estimated to represent 90 percent of multicellular life on Earth. Nevertheless, every insect species has several common features. All insects have a three-part body (head, thorax and abdomen), an exoskeleton made of chitin, compound eyes, one pair of antennae, and three sets of jointed legs.
Insects are remarkable creatures. While not all can fly, they are the only class of invertebrates that have developed flight. Some, such as termites, ants, wasps and bees, live in tight-knit social colonies. Many can swim, with some living almost all of their lives underwater. Across the class, their reproduction methods are vast, with some females not even needing male fertilization to reproduce. Insects as a whole are relatively weak and fragile.
Although many insects are deemed pests by humans, they actually perform many beneficial ecological roles. Insects help plants spread their pollen, thereby allowing more plants to grow. Some insects feed on others that can cause harm to agriculture. And were it not for insects, substances such as honey, silk, wax and lacqer would be nonexistent. (Photo: Wikimedia Commons)

I may spend the majority of my time in the kitchen figuring out how to pack lots of vegetables, whole grains, and legumes into a simple yet flavorful dinner, but I can't pretend that packaged food never makes an appearance in our house. There's just something about Oreos I can't resist, even though I know they're full of junk.
I swear I'm not trying to make all the cupcakes out of Martha Stewart's Cupcakes, but lately every recipe that's jumped out at me as I scroll through dozens of food blogs happens to be from that book.
These are awesome, and if you're at all hesitant about making cheesecakes this is a great place to start, because you get all the good qualities of a cheesecake without having to worry about cracking or water baths or springform pans. They're easy to put together, and the hardest part is definitely waiting the four hours they need to chill (but you can speed that up by putting them in the freezer for some of the time).
- 22 Oreos: 16 left whole, and 6 coarsely chopped
- 2 8-oz packages cream cheese, at room temperature (Neufchatel is fine)
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs, room temperature, lightly beaten
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- Pinch of salt
- Preheat oven to 275 F.
- Line 12 standard muffin tins and 4 ramekins (or 16 muffin tins, if you have them) with paper liners.
- Place 1 whole Oreo in the bottom of each lined cup.
- Beat the cream cheese in the bowl of a stand mixer on medium. Gradually beat in the sugar and vanilla.
- Pour in the beaten eggs, a little at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl after each addition.
- Beat in the sour cream and salt.
- Stir in chopped cookies by hand.
- Pour the batter into the prepared tins, filling each almost to the top.
- Bake, rotating pan halfway through, until filling is set, 22-25 minutes.
- Cool in the pans for about 15 minutes, on a wire rack, then transfer to a plate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours.

Asheboro, NC---The Pfeiffer men's golf team finished fourth in the 2007 Tot Hill Invitational Tuesday. The Falcons shot a 297 in the opening round to take a three shot lead. A second round 310 dropped them back into fourth place, fifteen shots behind tournament winner Barton College.
Pfeiffer had two individuals in the Top 10. Laurence Noott continud his strong play this Fall, finishing in 8th with a 146 total. Marc Kourie shot a 149 to finish in tenth.
Coach Turner commented on the finish to the fall season, " We are dissappointed to have held the lead and not been able to finish it off. I hope that this finish will drive the men to work harder in the offseason and come back strong in the spring. I am very pleased with Laurence and his performance in his first semester here at Pfeiffer. Marc Kourie also finished strong at the end of the season and I hope we can build on that looking to next semester."
The Men's team will be back in action Feb. 17-19 at the 2nd Annual Johnny Palmer Memorial at the Old North State Club.

More on Mayo to the Mavs.
I guess Mayo wasn't persuaded by the orange carpet.
"The Nuggets*are considering using their amnesty provision on forward Chris Andersen, tweets Gery Woelfel of the Racine Journal Times. Andersen has two years and $9MM left on his deal."
I'm just gonna leave this here....(slowly backs away)
Does anyone else like what the Mavs are doing? I mean I still hate them, but I'm surprised they were able to put together a descent roster.
Mavs trying to make the playoffs for the 13th straight season and still have flexibility for the next FA crop. Hate em too.

- Legionnaires disease in a federal workplace is being called an "isolated incident." One worker at the Social Security Administration's Philadelphia offices has been diagnosed with the disease, while a second has tested positive for the bacteria but is not showing any symptoms. A spokesperson for SSA says the building has been tested, but no Legionella bacteria were found. About 1,500 people work in the building.
- A parliamentary squabble delays work on a Senate telework bill. Vermont Senator Patrick Leahy has reportedly put a hold on the Telework Enhancement Act over a provision related to travel reimbursements at the Patent and Trademark Office. The amendment was offered by Oklahoma Senator Tom Coburn. And The Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee approved the telework bill last May. But a staffer cited in Government Executive says Leahy, who chairs the Judiciary Committee, believes the provision falls under his jurisdiction.
- A number of changes afoot at the General Services Administration. The Office of Citizen Services and Communications is reportedly being transformed into the Office of Citizen Services and Innovative Technology. Associate Administrator Dave McClure will receive two deputies -- Martha Dorris will lead the citizen services arm. And Interior Department CIO Sanjeev "Sonny" Bhagowalia will leave his post to become GSA's Deputy Associate Administrator for Innovative Technologies. That role includes running GSA's cloud computing initiatives and Data.gov. The shuffle is part of a bigger move to help GSA improve its services.
- GSA tries again to launch a big cloud-computing contract, but this time the RFQ asks for a little more protection from hackers. The new request targets vendors who can provide storage, virtual machines and Web hosting with a moderate level of security. GSA cancelled its first RFQ in February. Vendors have until June 15th to submit responses to the new one.
- Secretary of State Hillary Clinton says North Korea's sinking of a South Korean warship has created a "highly precarious" security situation in the region. She says the Obama administration is working hard to prevent an escalation of tension that could lead to conflict. Clinton says all of North Korea's neighbors, including its chief ally China, understand the seriousness of the matter and want to "contain" it.
- An Ohio man with anti-government beliefs has been identified as one of two people who allegedly gunned down two officers during a traffic stop in Arkansas. Jerry Kane Jr. and his 16-year-old son were later killed in a shootout. Kane had used the Internet to question federal and local governments' authority over him. Kane had a long history with police and recently complained about being busted at a "Nazi checkpoint" on I-40 in New Mexico. Court records show he was charged with driving without a license and concealing his identity.

Texas Rangers Tickets
Texas Rangers Tickets Tickets Rated 0.00/5 based on 0 customer reviews
2013 Record (91-72) Missed playoffs The 2013 Texas Rangers season ended when they lost a one game playoff to the Tampa Bay Rays. The heartbreaking loss marked the first time the Rangers missed the playoffs since 2009. The manager, Ron Washington, has been with the club since 2007 and taken the club to two World Series. Last year's team was led by sluggers Adrian Beltre and Ian Kinsler. Kinsler, however, is no longer with the club so the Rangers will have to look elsewhere for some offensive production. Yu Darvish and Derek Holland provided a nice spark at the top of the Rangers pitching rotation as well. How did the Rangers respond to not making the playoffs? Before the 2014 season they went out and acquired two huge names, Prince Fielder and Shin-Soo-Choo. These two moves along with shoring up the pitching staff look to keep the Rangers in the playoff race throughout the season. After losing two World Series in a row can the Rangers finally claim their first title? Find out this season and catch a ball game at Rangers Ballpark in Arlington.

MINNEAPOLIS – Anthony Louis scored twice to set up another dramatic finish for the Miami hockey team, but Denver off a late surge to top the RedHawks, 4-3, in the National Collegiate Hockey Conference Championship Game on Saturday night.
The RedHawks' (15-20-3) four-game winning streak was snapped with the setback as they fell a single victory shy of going to the NCAA Tournament.
A Miami slashing penalty put Denver on the power play just 1:15 into the game. After an early shot by Ty Loney rang off the post, Ryan McKay made a nice stop on Trevor Moore's chance from in close. With the power play nearing its end, Nolan Zajac ripped a slap shot from the point through traffic and in to put the Pioneers on top 1-0 at the 3:13 mark.
The Red and White earned a power play of their own with 15:17 left in the opening frame. MU created flurry at the end of the man advantage with Blake Coleman redirecting Matthew Caito's shot through Sam Brittain, but wide of the net. The Pioneers killed off the RedHawks' first power play with Brittain stopping all three of their shots.
DU (20-15-6) extended the lead to 2-0 with 6:12 to go in the first as Daniel Doremus followed his own rebound during a transition rush and tapped the puck in. The Pioneers got another chance to go on the attack with a power play late in the frame, but Ryan McKay came up with two quality saves on a Joey LaLeggia blast and a Zac Larraza wrist shot to keep Miami within two shots. Denver outshot Miami 10-6 in the first 20 minutes of play and skated to the dressing room leading 2-0.
After killing off the remainder of a carryover penalty, Miami started pressuring the Denver defense. Cody Murphy got the puck alone in the slot for a backhand shot that Brittain shrugged off with about three and a half minutes gone by and MU started spending more and more time in the DU zone.
Things slowed down from there and the Pioneers went on another power play with 11:23 left in the period, but the RedHawks' special teams stood strong to keep it a two shot game.
Miami made good on its second power play of the night when the puck caromed off the glass behind the net right to Louis in the middle. His backhand shot beat Brittain top shelf for his 11th goal of the year, cutting the Pioneers' lead to 2-1. Sean Kuraly and Alex Wideman garnered assists on the scoring play.
Kuraly evened things up with 3:52 to go in the period when he picked up a hard around clear at the half wall on the left side. The sophomore wasted little time, ripping a shot that eluded Brittain for his 12th goal of the season. That score rejuvenated the RedHawks and they began swarming in the offensive end. Alex Wideman nearly put the Red and White on top when his backhand went past Brittain up high, but it rang off the crossbar. Miami outshot Denver 10-7 in the second period and the teams entered the final regulation frame deadlocked in a 2-2 tie.
Denver regained the lead at 3-2 just 1:06 into the third period when Zac Larraza came down the right side, used the defense as a screen and scored. Ty Loney nearly made it 4-2 a couple minutes later when his wraparound attempt got behind McKay, but stayed out and the puck was whistled dead. A Miami turnover ended up in its net as Emil Romig converted Matt Marcinew's centering feed from behind the goal line with 13:13 to go.
The Pioneers clogged things up defensively and were content to grind time off the clock with a two-goal lead. With time winding down, the RedHawks pulled McKay for an extra attacker. Miami made things interesting as Blake Coleman's tip pass atop the DU crease found Louis with a wide open net for his second goal of the night. With 1:33 left, MU found life as Louis' tally cut the gap to 4-3. Austin Czarnik also notched an assist on the play.
Down a goal, the Red and White mounted several quality chances as they looked for the tying strike. Louis got free at the right circle for a shot that Brittain looked behind him for, but ended up covering up for a whistle. Austin Czarnik got free from the left wing in the final minute, but the DU goalie gloved the shot to keep MU down. The RedHawks mounted one more push in the closing seconds, with Czarnik's shot getting through traffic, but hitting Brittain in the pad. The Pioneers cleared the rebound to the corner to hold off the RedHawks' furious comeback attempt.
Miami went 1-for-2 on the power play while Denver finished the night 1-for-3 with the man advantage. DU finished with a 28-26 advantage in shots on goal. Brittain finished up with 23 saves while McKay stopped 24 shots. Louis was named to the NCHC All-Tournament team after scoring three goals this weekend, he finished the NCHC Tournament with six points (4g, 2a) in four games. Kuraly tallied a multi-point game (1g, 1a) and finished the tournament with a team-high seven points.
While the season is at an end, the Red and White made history over the previous eight seasons. Miami won 20 or more games and made the NCAA Tournament a school-record eight-straight years after qualifying for the tournament only three times in the program's history prior to that historic stretch.

|Eli Avila, M.D., J.D., Pennsylvania Secretary of Health, spoke to first year medical students at LECOM Erie on July 28.
Dr. Avila shared the story of his journey with the medical students and told them that they can achieve their goals. He said he was a Puerto Rican kid who grew up living in New York City public housing, but had a passion for education. Dr. Avila shared his educational and career path with the students. He became a physician, ophthalmologist, educator, attorney, and public health executive.
Dr. Avila was already trained in internal medicine, ophthalmology, and correctional medicine, and had been on the faculty at Columbia University when he decided to go to law school. He felt becoming a lawyer would enable him to speak out for physicians and patients. "I wanted to come back and make a difference in medicine," he said. He attended St. John's University School of Law at night while seeing his patients 50 to 60 hours per week. Dr. Avila finished eighth in his law school class.
Dr. Avila said as a lawyer he is able to convey the concerns of physicians and patients to lawmakers, judges and corporate executives. He's worked on workers' compensation cases and found time to receive his Master of Public Health degree. In his current position as Pennsylvania Health Secretary, Dr. Avila said he will look after the health and well-being of all Pennsylvanians.
"You're at the beginning of your career in health care," Dr. Avila told the students, who are in their first week of classes at LECOM. "There are many things that I'm sure many of you will do that will help society." Dr. Avila told them to study hard and never lose sight of the fact that they are becoming physicians to help others. "Don't forget why you're here and what your calling is," he said.

Pictured with Dr. Ferretti are (L-R): Michael Visnosky, J.D., Chairman of the LECOM Board of Trustees, Neil Malady, Assistant to the Secretary of Health, and Eli Avila, M.D., J.D., Pennsylvania Secretary of Health.
Thomas Russo, a first-year medical student, said he enjoyed Dr. Avila's speech. "I started off with butterflies in the stomach. It's a very important person in front of us and it was like we were on the same level as him," Russo said. "He made sure that we felt very comfortable and he made us all feel very motivated and ready to go and take on this year."
First-year student Amber Hussain said she was also motivated by Dr. Avila's talk. "He told us not to forget who you are," she said. "Medical school is going to be a lot of hard work and it was good to know that he definitely understands and supports us."
As Secretary of Health, Dr. Avila said he will challenge major health insurance companies to make sure physicians receive fair reimbursements, especially in the area of primary care. He said Pennsylvania needs qualified physicians in urban, suburban, and rural areas, and has to find ways to prevent them from leaving for more physician-friendly states.
Dr. Avila encouraged the students to express their concerns to lawmakers. He said it's up to them to defend the medical profession and said physicians need to be proactive if they want to improve the system. "Get more politically involved," he said. "You vote. You count. And you have your constituents – your patients. You have a voice. It will only come through legislative change."

Last Saturday there was a disturbance in the Union. Several noise complaints were filed, and it's clear that participants of this "event" will be wearing orange sometime soon. Rock 'n' Roll was again the culprit encouraging youths to express their feelings. Fighting for "causes." Clearly this trend needs to stop. Our community should not have to put up with this reckless "Rocking Out." Really people, THINK OF THE CHILDREN. Do we want them growing up with no sense of shame? When asked about the proceedings, one child responded, "I got Legos." Is that the depth we've sunk to? We give children toys to get them to buy into the hypnotic persuasions of rock music. The horror doesn't end with that devilry however. Witnesses confirm that former rock enthusiast, Tom Miller, led the charge by influencing decisions and providing useful feedback during the event. This man is infamous, but the adjacent picture says it all. Should you see this man, do not trust him. Report him immediately to the Thorn.

Rose professors say crazy things. E-mail them to the Flipside at
Thursday, May 8th marked the date of the glorious student appreciation day put on by our very own Aramark Dining Center. The student participation numbers soared beyond the like of which we have never seen. While we sat down and waited for our delectable dinner, we had a chance to speak with a Rose-Hulman freshman Man, Chi Huen, or "Munchie." "I didn't even think this many students attended school here..." she stated inquisitively. Our food just then suddenly appeared on the plates before us! "Holy Cow! This is just like Hogwarts!" Munchie exclaimed. We were all just wonderfully astonished. As the dinner went on, several students were reported charging their ID cards multiple times in fear that they were not paying enough for their meal. Overall, the Aramark Café and Lounge raked in approximately $15 million of revenue from last night's event... which is rather mediocre at best. I would have thought they would have come out with at least $25 million with the entire community of Terre Haute knocking on the door to the student union. But, that was before I set my eyes on the fountain of eternal youth. After I saw a couple employes carting in a magnificent gleaming chocolate fountain, I thought I had won the treasured golden ticket. A mystical light was reflecting off the surface, and youth smiled at me as my hand grazed the glimmering surface.
Before this year, I had never planned an event larger than a birthday party for myself, which was no major feat. My idea of a party is really not a party at all but rather a small get together with a few close friends. So, it was interesting to find myself planning anything larger this year. I've still not planned an event any larger than the scale of about 75 people. However, there are a few useful tips I can give that I learned in the process.Be organized: Keeping track of what you'd like at the party and what's already done is important. How many guests are there approximately? Who are they? Are there any special guests like a speaker or a D.J.? Where are you having this event? The questions start tumbling through the mind. Is it themed? How formal is it? Is there going to be a meal or just light refreshments or nothing at all? It's easy to see that all this information could turn into a mess. Write it down in one place. I recommend a small binder or a folder with a few sheets of paper and a pen.Start early: If the location is anywhere besides your own home, you're going to want to look into it early. You don't want to risk the location you'd like being booked already or, worse yet, all the locations still available being outside your price range. Email or call venues to ask about their availability for the date and their pricing. Looking into other areas early helps too. You'll want time to look into anything you might purchase and leave time for making alternate plans in case something doesn't work out like you wanted.Make no assumptions: When looking into pricing, read all of the fine print. It will likely say some phrases like "not included in room rental." Some of these items that are not included might be surprising and may not be cheap. For example, you're going to want tablecloths and napkins if you're having a dinner, but you can't expect it to be included in the cost of catering. In fact, you might not be able to expect the silverware, having the food served, or having it all cleared away after the meal to be included either. Read that fine print.Mind your money: If you've made it through all the major details and know what you want, it's tempting to just start ordering. Don't do it right away. Instead, set up an organized spreadsheet to keep track of expenses. A computer program that will update automatically as you put new numbers into place is nice. This also lets you see right away whether or not a possible expense will break your budget, even if the math isn't just a simple addition. There are likely taxes on some purchases and also some daunting service charges that are in percentages as well. For example, serving food may not cost a flat rate. It might be a percentage based on the overall cost of the food you've ordered. Adding one more person to that guest list could really cost you more through the food, the sales tax, and the service fee.Design and deliver: If you decide that you're ready to make the event official, then take the time to design a simple 'save-the-date' style flyer or card about it that you can distribute to your invited guests with some basic information about what and when. If you're planning for an organization, then email is probably easiest. Getting the word of your party out there early is the easiest way to make it a success when it comes to attendance. Everyone is busy, but advanced notice makes it easier to clear a spot on the calendar or keep it clear. Make sure that everything you send out is presentable. Use good spelling, good grammar, polite wording, and a simple, but attractive, design where appropriate. Once you've announced the event, wait to send the invitations until they can be complete with all the details of who, what, when, where, and why.Do not claim anything that won't be true: You don't want anyone to show up and immediately leave in disappointed disgust at your false advertising. Finally, you might want to update your information with anything you've overlooked. Answer one person's question by sending the information to everyone if it seems like useful information about the event.Ask for help: If you find that the event is close, the tasks aren't manageable, and there are still a lot of smaller details like place cards to put into place, get some help. Ask other people involved with the event to take on smaller tasks, or send a nicely worded request out for help.If it seems like a minor task but still needs to get done in order for the event to come together according to plans, then let someone else put his or her talents to work. This event is keeping you busy, right? That other person likely has the time to do it better, since he or she volunteered.This might not be all there is to planning an event, especially on a larger scale. However, these few simple tips can help you get started.
There are two people directly responsible for your existence and they both have a day set aside every year to celebrate how awesome they are. You could argue that these days are just made up by the card and flower companies to sell more merchandise, but who cares? Why shouldn't we have a day that is set aside to appreciate the things parents do? They wiped our snot, tears, and butts. They taught us how to share our toys and not to stick things up our noses. They scolded us for throwing fits in grocery stores and drawing on the white walls with crayons. They cared for us when we got the sniffles and sneezes. They encouraged us to go out into the world and succeed. You worked hard to get where you are, but you always had your parents, standing in the wings, cheering you on.This Sunday is Mother's Day. There is nothing stopping you from calling her this weekend and thanking her for being spectacular. She would love a bouquet of roses, lilies, or daisies and a box of chocolates, but nothing will make her quite as happy as you calling and saying, "I love you." Your mother is a great woman. She has cared for you your whole life. Whether she stayed at home or had a job, she labored to make you happy. You may have your disagreements and upsets, you may have thought she was being unfair or not understanding the difficulties you were experiencing. And the fact is, she may not have understood but I bet she tried her best to make it better for you. It did not matter if you felt you were being babied or crowded, if you were in any trouble of any kind she would go in with guns blazing. She will always be there for you: to make your favorite food after a bad week, to help you with any problem, and to spoil you for no good reason. In this fashion, let's not forget the other great women in our lives. Grandmothers and aunts love you too, so don't forget them this Mother's Day weekend. No matter how hard you are studying or how hard you are trying not to study, you have time to show appreciation for all that your mother has done for you. You can be sure that there are things that she has done for you that no other sane person would do, like do your nasty laundry when you go home, and she should be hugged and thanked. If you are unable to go home, along with the call she would probably enjoy some of those flowers and chocolates or even some homemade macaroni picture frames. For those who don't keep tabs on these sorts of things, remember that Father's Day is Sunday, June 16 and that your father is just as important as your mother, and he deserves recognition as well. So be the good offspring you are and appreciate those who got you here.

Kidnapping victims rescued in Cleveland
Three women held captive in their kidnappers' home on the West Side of Cleveland for nearly a decade were rescued after one of the victims, Amanda Berry, managed to attract the attention of neighbor Charles Ramsey, who promptly called 911. Berry, who was 17 when she was kidnapped in 2003 along with 14-year-old Gina DeJesus and 20 year-old Michelle Knight, suffered countless rapes during a harrowing nine years spent as a prisoner of three brothers. Ariel, Pedro and Onil Castro routinely forced themselves upon the women, tying them up and beating them if they were not compliant. Neighbors stated that they had seen strange occurrences, such as a woman frantically banging on an upper window, and sometimes late-night deliveries of groceries to the boarded up house. Although the police were notified of some of these events and had even been on the property in past years on their quest for the three women, they had never been able to discover the location of the women. The women have since been reunited with their families, who have searched for them for years, unsure if they were alive or dead.
Government blames cyber-attacks on China
In the Pentagon's annual report to Congress Monday, the Obama Administration accused the Chinese military of attempting to hack into the U.S. government's computer systems, marking the first time that the administration has directly named both the Chinese Government and the People's Liberation Army as possible culprits of cyber-attacks. Officials consider the attacks as possible attempts to gain information on U.S. strategy and military capabilities. The report is primarily concerned with the theft of industrial technology, which appeared to be the main reason behind the hacking. China has expressed disappointment that the U.S. would level such accusations against them, saying that such speculations without proof can only serve to harm relations between the nations. The U.S. is also spending billions on cyber-defense and cyber-weapons every year, leading others to complain that America is holding China to a double standard. This is particularly relevant when the issue of the United States' cyber-attacks on Iranian nuclear is brought up. These attacks, which took place early on in President Obama's administration, although they were run by intelligence agencies, utilized much of the same technology as a military program.

The ladies of Rose-Hulman's Delta Delta Delta chapter hosted their annual Teeter-Totter-A-Thon last Friday, May 3 to raise money for St. Jude Children's Hospital, which provides crucial care to children suffering from cancer and other life threatening diseases through both treatment and research into cures. Most importantly, the families whose children are treated at St. Jude are not required to pay for the medical care they receive, enabling them to give their children the highest quality care possible. Tri Delta has worked with St. Jude since 1999, when the sorority officially adopted the Memphis, Tennessee hospital as their philanthropy partner.As a part of their philanthropy efforts, the Gamma Pi chapter of Tri Delta once again set up teeter totters in the Kroger parking lot on Highway 41 and began to raise money. Prior to the event, fraternities at Rose-Hulman and many others sources from within the community gave donations to the cause, giving the girls a running start to reaching their financial goal. Teeter-Totter-A-Thon was kicked off at 6 pm Friday night, as Tri Delta clapped and sang, garnering enthusiasm for the day-long event. During the 24 hours that the event lasts, girls took shifts on the teeter totters to ensure that they are never still, while others asked members of the community for donations on their way in or out of the grocery store. Many residents were willing to open their wallets for the children of St. Jude, and donation buckets continued to fill. Children and adults alike enjoyed the candy that the girls handed out to those who passed by, and one small boy was heard happily celebrating that the lollipops were "the big kind."The day was not without its challenges, for although Friday evening started out clear and sunny, a downpour soon began as night fell and continued throughout the remaining stretch, forcing participants to stay under the tent to stay dry. Some girls even came prepared with rain ponchos to wear, having anticipated the storm. Regardless of the rain, energy remained high, and the effort for St. Jude continued, pushing onward through the dark and rainy hours of the very early morning until fresh volunteers showed up, ready for their own four-hour shifts. Teeter-Totter-A-Thon came to a close at 6 pm on Saturday afternoon, as the final volunteers finished up their turns on the teeter totters and at the doors collecting donations. The event was a resounding success, and between the generous contributions from within the school, the community and the money collected at the Kroger door, Tri Delta was able to raise a grand total of over $2000 for St. Jude.

President James Conwell, who has just over a week under his belt, is already starting to feel that Rose is home. Coming to campus at 5:30 a.m. and taking walks around campus everyday, he is trying to gauge where the school is at and how it can be improved. One of the Rose Thorn staff members sat down to have a chat with Dr. Conwell along with Mary Barr, Vice President of Communications & Marketing.Rose Thorn: So what do you think of Rose so far?James Conwell: It's an incredible place. I have been here three times before during the interview process and it's just an amazing, cool place. I wish I knew about it sooner, it's a true hidden gem.RT: Why do you think the school is so hidden?JC: Well, I am one of six kids and on vacation my father would turn every trip into a college visit. It drove my mother nuts, but when I called him and said I got the job, he said "Never heard of it!" This is something I really want to change.RT: Do you plan on changing lots of things?JC: Ninety percent I want to keep, such as most of the curriculum. The school turns out excellent engineers. Really, I need to continue with the strategic plan from the "Great Debate," help students adjust to a much more global world and make the school for affordable with more scholarships.RT: What do you think about expanding resources for students to do Venture work?JC: Students need to gain the skills in college know finances and how a company works. Two of the members of the board purely do venture investment currently. If a student has an idea they wish to pursue, Rose should teach them the skill to go forward with that wish after graduationRT: This year there is a lot of concern with the size of the student body, thoughts?JC: Let's look at both sides of the argument. America needs to stay competitive with the world; with that rose should in role 50,000 students tomorrow. The other side is how can the culture of this place, one of its strongest points, continue to exist with that kind of growth? A yearlong study has been conducted and the results will be presented at the next board meeting in a couple of weeks. This will decide the decision on size.
RT: How do you plan on making students feel that they have a say?
JC: I am trying to stay connected with the student body. I have met with various student groups such as SGA, IFC, and ROTC. I enjoy having lunch with students. Great ideas come from everywhere and students are a great asset. Plus they use everything just about every day.RT: How do you plan on being approachable?JC: Am I being approachable right now? Today I have five meetings keeping me inside, but I spend a lot of time just walking and talking to people. Just come up and talk to me. I love to hear what you have to say.RT: Is there any one thing that you want to say to the entire student body, or to phrase it another way, any last words?JC: Well, how about two things. You will see me around campus, just come up and talk to me, even if its hello. Secondly please tell me if you have an idea and we can talk about it!
All eyes were on six-year-old Ryland Hayes at the second-annual Rock Out for Ryland student concert in the Kahn Room last Saturday, where 15 student-led bands competed against each other to raise money for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. The event was created last year in honor of Associate Dean of Student Affairs Erik Hayes's son, who was diagnosed with diabetes in February of 2011. The concert, themed after the Star Wars holiday "May the Fourth be With You" by Ryland himself, also featured prizes collected from Terre Haute business for band and raffle winners. Ryland even appeared on stage to talk about his condition."We have some of the most talented students here at Rose-Hulman," Erik Hayes, who also MC'ed, said. "But the talent that all of these people have, it's just amazing to me. It's so fun to watch these students and showcase something outside of the classroom." The idea for Rock Out for Ryland came about last year from Nadini Hettigei, Resident Assistant at Apartments East 3, and Julie Byrd, who also has diabetes. Hettigei often baby-sits for the Hayes, who are like "a second family" to her. After the idea for a charity event for Ryland, they started working months beforehand with a committee organized for the concert and decided to do it again this year."Seeing Ryland so excited about this one day that he really gets to be a star for having diabetes is worth all the effort we put in," Hettigei said.Erik Hayes said how grateful he was, not only for the students who took the time to plan this event for Ryland, but also for the people at Rose-Hulman that are "genuinely concerned for the welfare of our kids."It means a ton," Hayes said. "It's really tough to describe that in words, how much it means to our family." Hayes said that donations from Rock Out have reached about $1800, but T-shirts are still available for sale in the Student Affairs Office until supplies last. Arda Tugay, a Resident Assistant at Blumberg Hall, promised to shave his head if donations surpassed a total of $2000.In addition to Hettigei and Byrd, Hayes also pointed out that Dan D'Avello, Kevin Dorn, Arda Tugay, Nick Aellen, Sarah Hensley, Paige Cook, Dan Dugmore, Bradlee Beauchamp, Eric Guilford, Kevin Dwyer, and Emily Eckstein were all party of the organizational committee that made this concert possible.
And the winner is…
After placing second at last year's concert, the band Illuminati, consisting of Jacob Winsett, Bradlee Beauchamp, Kevin Dorn, Jack Petry, and new member Padrick Mulligan retuned to win as the "Overall Winner" and earned the chance to play at this year's Lodge-a-Palooza. Winsett, Dorn, and Mulligan also played for Equinox, which won "Top Rock Band." Although Illuminati was formed primarily for Rock Out For Ryland, Equinox has played at several venues, including at the 4th Quarter Bar. According to Mulligan, being able to perform in two bands at the event allowed them "to have separate styles in two distinct sets" with songs like "Man in the Box," where Winsett dressed up with a cloak and skull face paint, and "Sweet Home Alabama.""When we won I was pretty happy because we'll probably be losing our singer after this year, since he is transferring," Beauchamp said. "It was nice sharing that moment with the band."

Get Better Skin with These Simple Tips
Try any of these awesome tips to get the radiant skin every woman seeks.
Get more sleep
there's a reason they call it beauty sleep. When you sleep, your body goes through cellular renewal, and skin rejuvenation is a big part of that. Not getting enough sleep can leave you looking older and more washed out.
Keep Your Brushes Clean
Dirty makeup brushes are one of the leading causes of breakouts and acne. Keeping your brushes clean is really simply. All you have to do is swirl them around in a gentle cleanser or shampoo and let them air dry sufficiently. This will get rid of all the old makeup and bacteria.
Clean your face once a day
A morning and a night routine is overdoing it and will lead to dried out skin. Unless your skin is very oily, you only need to wash your face every night. Use a gentle cleanser and instead of scrubbing it in, let it sit on your face for a couple of seconds to eliminate dirt and bacteria. Remember to moisturize when you're done. In the morning, all you have to do is splash a bit of water on your face. Skip the products.
Use Your Sunscreen
Everyone already knows how important it is to put sunscreen on to protect the skin from harmful UV rays and premature aging, however what most people don't do is reapply their sunscreen after several hours. After a long day of work or running errands, sun screen will need to be reapplied. But what do you do if you're wearing makeup? There's a product for that. There are some brands now offering SPF powders that can easily be brushed over a made up face. If you go makeup free, creams should be all your need.
Get your neck and chest
Moisturizing these areas are just as important as the rest of your face. These are areas that are prone to wrinkling, aging, and darkspots so it's important to get the hydration that they need. Don't forget to apply your sunscreen to these areas as well. Reapplication of sunscreen here should be a snap because most people don't wear makeup in these areas. Keep them protected just as you would your face.
Water, Water and more Water
Water truly is a miracle drink. It will clear you of toxins that cause poor skin and inflammation. It will help transport nutrients and oxygen to your skin cells, stopping premature aging. Drinking water is especially important if you're someone who lives in a dry climate.

Gallery: Understanding Occupy Wall Street as an Ecosystem With SPURSE &...
The group was divided into teams of two and each was delegated one of the Eight Principles for Managing a Commons from Nobel Prize winning Economist Elinor Ostrom's work. From each assigned principle, participants formed questions concerning the structure of the movement rather than the content. The ultimate goal was to incorporate the research into a letter of solidarity that will be presented to OWS.
Participants entered into the seemingly unstructured space filled with bystanders, activists, tourists, police and supporters. With a little inquiry, it became apparent that whatever structure exists is evolving on its own. Defined areas such as the kitchen, comfort station, medics workspace, media station, and information booths have popped up over the course of OWS according to community needs.
Rather than a definable movement that can be categorized or clearly explained, OWS challenges current systemic structures by providing an alternative model that almost has to be personally experienced to fully grasp its power. The commons are offered as a way to step out of the consumer model where food, education and politics have been turned into goods to be bought and sold.
OWS is its own ecosystem that has sprouted in lower Manhattan, constantly evolving and remaining flexible to meet unexpected needs. According to supporters who have watched it grow since the outset, services provided by those such as medical personnel, the media and cooks have arrived in response to basic needs. Volunteers arrive ready to contribute but rather than having someone explain exactly what to do, they learn by observation. The community sustaining practices that have evolved thus far are also those that create community-building habits. OWS becomes an experiment in impromptu community building open to anyone who wants to join.
This is apparent from the donations have poured in from all over the world. Food and goods are distributed without questioning. A small dish washing station, compost and trash system help keep the commons relatively sanitary. Clothing donations pile up and are immediately organized so as not to spill into the walking pathways. So far, monetary donations have exceeded $50,000 and are used towards food, clothing and medical supplies.
While there are very few rules in the traditional sense, there is an agreed upon code of conduct that prohibits alcohol and drugs. Other than that, a daily schedule helps keep things functioning. A deescalation committee consisting of trained negotiators also helps to ease any tensions. When needs arise or new services are offered, a general assembly convenes to vote. If an idea sticks, a table appears on the square signifying its permanence in the community.
Much of OWS is in dialogue with Ostrom's "Eight Principles" however several characteristics also serve to enrich the language laid out in her document. The word "rules" loses significance as the ecosystem evolves in a relatively self-regulating manner. As Live Feeds participant Scott Brown stated after the workshop:
Thinking about "community sustaining practices" opens the space for relationships to congeal in a productive, mutually respectful, and co-evolving way without being beholden to norms and frameworks which characterize a conventional notion of politics. It would seem that [traditional notions of political engagement] would be not only an important way for us to talk about what OWS may actually be, but, more importantly, should serve as a methodological tool to approach how we should never remain satisfied with the conceptual frames which we inherit, but should consistently work to evolve our concepts and practices towards new and unexpected places.
Rather than a protest, Occupy Wall Street is an inspirational model for an alternative future. It shows that involvement, structure and process are key to sustaining any society. As with any ecosystem, permanence is always in question. A fine balance is achieved by effectively responding to constant flux and thus far OWS seems to understand this organic process.

C. Billy Essick, 71, had triple bypass surgery last year, but that's not going to stop him from walking and running 8,000 meters on Saturday at the Pride of Kinston's Run for the River.
He and his wife Sally, 72, of Manteo, did the 1 Mile Fun Run last year and are now preparing for the big race.
"We're walking as the weather permits," Sally Essick said.
The couple goes to the gym and walks three to four times a week. On one day, they walked 8 miles.
Sally cracked her sternum, so they stopped going for awhile, but they've registered for the 8K race and plan to be there.
"I am (ready), yes," she said. "I think he is."
Billy Essick said they found out about the race one year ago when they were camping at Neuseway Nature Center, where Billy occasionally volunteers with building exhibits.
Participants of the eighth annual Run for the River are about 50 percent out-of-towners, Adrian King, the Pride's executive director, said.
"It's twice the size it used to be when it started in 2006," he said.
Pre-registration for the event, sponsored by Pride, the city of Kinston's Parks and Recreation Department and the Kinston-Lenoir County Tourism Development Authority, is ongoing through Friday's Welcome to the Race party and dinner, which begins at 6 p.m. at the Hampton Inn.
The party is open to volunteers, runners and sponsors. Wells Gulledge, a former Kinston High School boy's basketball coach, will be the featured guest speaker. The two new state champion teams from KHS have also been invited.
Kinston Mayor B.J. Murphy and Miss Kinston-Lenoir County 2013 Maggie Nelms will help distribute medals after the race concludes.
Awards will be given to all the 1-mile participants. Cash awards will be given to the top three male and female winners and male and female winners from Lenoir County. Medals will be given to the top three male and female winners in each age category.
Pride is providing T-shirts for the first 250 registrants. An anonymous donor is supplying 150 bright yellow T-shirts for the volunteers.
William Wilder Jr. of Kinston will be watching his 5-year-old son William III run the 1-mile race, and then he will take part in the 8K race.
"I've actually run every year but a couple of years," the father said. "I try to do it every year. It's a really good event."
Wilder said he started out running in college and has run a couple of marathons, so he isn't doing anything more to prepare than what he normally does. He usually runs at least 20 miles in four or five days each week.
He said he encourages his son to race with him by making little contests of running short distances with him in his neighborhood. Last year, William III cheered his father on with his mother and wanted to race. This year, he will get his chance.
Ty, 7, and Levi, 12, Wentz of Kinston will also be running the 1-mile race. This will be Ty's second race and Levi's third time.
"They get very excited about it every year," their mother, Heather Wentz, said. The family prints off their time each year and the next year they try to beat their own time.
The boys don't need any additional preparations as they are both involved in sports, Wentz said. When they get to the event, they are raring to go and ready to encourage the 8K runners.
"We always cheer on the long-distance runners," Wentz said. "… They get all into that, too."
Stuart Lindley, 45, a member of Pride's Board of Directors, said he's ran most of Pride's races.
"I do it to support the community and the Pride of Kinston," he said.
He usually starts running about a month before the race with friends. But this year, he has been swimming at the Woodmen Community Center.
His daughter, Anne Grayson, 12, will be racing for her third year. It's usually a family event, but her mother has another commitment this year, Lindley said.
"My goal is to beat my age every year," he said, "starting when I was 35."

Max, a former champion living in Arizona, was healthy and happy before his owner was forced to give him up.
As the deadly snow storms that have already hit the Great Plains illustrate, winter is coming. It won't be long before much of the country is buried under a blanket of white.
This is the time of year equine rescues, sanctuaries, and community hay banks serving needy horse owners stock up on hay for the entire winter. The ASPCA assists these groups through grants made possible by our members' compassion and generosity, ensuring that horses don't suffer and starve.
One such group is the Arizona Coalition for Equines (ACE), which received a $3,000 grant from the ASPCA in November 2012. These are just a few of the lives ACE was able to touch with that funding:
- Slammed by foreclosure on her home and forced to move after the death of her mother, a woman living on disability ran out of money to feed her two horses. She turned to ACE for a helping hand, saying she would rather feed her horses than herself. ACE responded with a month's worth of hay and settled her unpaid feed bill, giving her time to get back on her feet. Her horses remain in excellent condition.
- A disabled veteran on a fixed income asked ACE for help when his horse became unable to walk. Sometimes feeding his horses before himself, he was desperate to get veterinary care but unable to pay the upfront costs. With ACE assistance, a veterinarian did a complete examination and diagnosed thrush, a front hoof abscess and a possible pelvic injury. Treatment provided immediate relief.
The greatest success story belongs to Max, a 30-year-old former champion show horse (pictured) who had been owner-released to a commercial stable due to financial hardship. His former owner was devastated when he went to visit Max months later and found him close to death—he had been left to starve. The man reached out to ACE, which rescued Max and covered the cost of his foster care until a new forever home was found.
As you budget your holiday spending and pick out the perfect gifts for everyone on your list, please remember the horses—as well as the cats and dogs—who are out in the cold this winter. If you haven't done so lately, please consider making a gift to the ASPCA today. You'll assist animals like Max who are bracing for winter and waiting for our help.
When ACE rescued Max from a commercial stable, he was emaciated and starving from severe neglect.
I've had horses most of my adult life... other animals too... mostly cats. I can't imagine willingly letting another creature starve to death. They are so helpless when they are in an enclosed arena... no grass or water. This is beyond stupidity or ignorance, it is diliberate cruelty... a slow death.
maybe we should hurt the person who hurt the poor horse
What I don't understand is this, why isn't the person, or establishment that took Max in neglected, and starved him (which is a form of torture) under arrest or facing severe penalties or jail time? I thought that this organization had its own law enforcement officers? I thought that this was criminal?

Club competitions
National team competitions
16-25, 25-19, 28-20, 19-22
If there's one thing Gaz Metan Medias knows, it's how to win in crunch time as the Romanian club won a third consecutive thriller in EuroChallenge Group D with an absorbing 88-86 success against Khimik.
Something had to give when these unbeaten teams went up against each other and neither was willing to relinquish their proud unbeaten records in a nail biting tussle.
Ultimately, 19 turnovers and two last-gasp missed free-throws to force overtime by Devoe Joseph hurt Khimik.
The hosts once again showed their composure and a enjoyed a slice of good fortune to sneak yet another victory.
The success tasted sweeter since they had to come back from an awful start which had witnessed Khimik take a commanding 40-26 lead midway through the second quarter.
At that stage, it looked like a loss was on the cards for the the home side, but they fought back in brilliant style with a decisive 19-4 run either side of the break to move in front.
Both teams then traded leads right up until the closing stages, and Khimik led 81-80 with less than two minutes remaining, but the hosts managed to move ahead from the free-throw line and crucially, kept their noses in front to spark scenes of jubilation on the final buzzer.
Willie Deane had 16 points for Khimik whilst Titus Nicoara had 21 points for the winning team along with Slobodan Dundjerski who was just one assist short of a double-double with 10 points and 9 assists.
Titus Nicoara, Gaz Metan player"In the first half we had a few minuteswhen we fell mentally. After that we woke up and we proved that if we play as a team, and we fight for each ball, we can come back in the game. I think that in this game there were moments when our desire to win was bigger then our opponents'."
Marcel Tenter, Gaz Metan coach"I was sure that we can come back in the game. I want to congratulate my team for the fighting spirit, they worked a lot for each ball. If we will play like tonight we can think about going in the next phase of the competition. We dedicate this success to our great fans, they were upset after the lost game againt Pitesti in the Romanian championship."
Suad Sehovic, Khimik Yuzhne player"We had 16 points in the first half, and after that they started to play more aggressive. Practically we lost the game in the second half. Gaz Metan didn't surprise us, we knew it's a strong and aggressive team."
Zoran Martic, Khimik Yuzhni coach,,At one moment we had too many turnovers in the first half, we gave them the chance to score easy points and to come back in the game. After that it was a completely different game. We still had the chance to win, but we missed the opportunities, so that I want to congratulate Gaz Metan and we will try to focus for the next game''.

His start hardly foreshadowed history.
On that August 2009 night in Zurich, Switzerland, Dathan Ritzenhein immediately dropped to the back of the pack among the 15 runners in the 5000-meter race at the Weltklasse Golden League meet. Competing against the world's best, including world record holder Kenenisa Bekele, Ritzenhein came through the first lap dead last. Perfect, thought his coach, the legendary Alberto Salazar.
Before the race Salazar had told Ritzenhein, "Get to the back and go as slow as you can without losing contact." Doing just that, Ritzenhein remained calm, his pace steady at 61.8 seconds per lap. Eventually, a number of racers who had pushed the lead began to fall from the front and behind the American. With two laps to go, Ritzenhein had climbed to seventh place—even though his splits barely wavered by more than a second from lap to lap. At that point he finally sped up, pushing his previous pace by two seconds, and ended up in third place. His time of 12:56.27 sliced nearly two seconds off a 13-year-old American record.
But while his surge may have earned him a podium spot and a record, to this day Ritzenhein knows it was his adherence to his (and Salazar's) pacing plan that put him in a position for history.
"I fell into a groove," he says, "and it got easier as the race went on."
Whether you're a world-class runner like Ritzenhein or a weekend warrior who's just out there to finish a fast 10-K, finding the optimal pace can mean the difference between success and suffering. Determining such a pace would seem pretty straightforward. If you want to run a 3:40 marathon, say, it's a simple calculation to figure out that you need to run eight-minute, 23-second miles to meet your goal. But on the track, on the roads, and in real life, unexpected detours and surprises can shred your best pacing plan to pieces.
"We would like to be robots and turn the knob to our goal pace and just go, but we're human," says Greg McMillan, owner of the Flagstaff, Arizona-based McMillan Running Company who has coached elite national runners, including several Olympians. "When we encounter a slight hill or a slight turn, it makes a difference."
To run your best in your next race, consider the following questions, and then put their answers toward a new—and improved—pacing strategy.
What is the secret to pacing?
A: Pacing isn't something most of us are born knowing how to do. Instead, like many skills, it takes practice. Why? So you learn what your goal pace feels like in your legs, in your gut, and in your head prior to race day. Deena Kastor, the American bronze medalist in the 2004 Olympic Marathon, puts it this way: "The best way to prepare for any distance is to find your rhythm in the months before the race."
The training paces in "Measuring Your Effort" (below) can provide the repetition needed to sustain your goal pace—and build confidence. Ritzenhein knows how critical the latter is. A few weeks before the world half-marathon championships in 2009, he ran a 10-mile time trial at his half-marathon goal pace. "The trial helped me get used to that pace so that it wouldn't feel so hard in the race," Ritzenhein says. The payoff: He took home a bronze medal.
Before your next race, McMillan suggests measuring a loop that's half to three-quarters the distance of your event and practice running it at your goal pace. (To determine that, try the calculator at runnersworld.com/pacecalculator.) "Run your loop and know how long it takes you," says McMillan. "Every other week, repeat this race-pace run at the same pace and notice how it feels." Over time, you'll learn how your breathing, heart rate, and overall effort feels at this level.
Can my race-day mental and physical states affect my pace?
A: When you run, your brain receives dozens of physiological signals from the rest of your body—how hard your muscles are working, what temperature your body is, how fast your heart is beating. Your brain then processes the signals into sensations that you experience as perception of effort. But it's not just physiological signals that determine how hard your pace feels. "Expectation is just as crucial," says Ross Tucker, Ph.D., an exercise physiologist at the University of Cape Town in South Africa.
Here's what he means: If you're in the midst of a PR attempt, you'll expect to be working hard, and your brain will interpret the physiological signals and effort perception as signs that you're on pace. As a result, your effort level may feel quite manageable. But if you're out for an easy run and your training partner goads you into finishing at race-day pace, then you're likely to feel crummy. That's because, Tucker says, "your expectations and physiological feedback are so mismatched."
Set realistic expectations about how you'll feel during your race, erring toward discomfort. Then, to offset the expected pain, use positive stimuli—like family members cheering you at designated points along the course—to keep you on pace. Meghan Armstrong, a member of Team USA Minnesota, says, "I like to have my coach yell out each quarter mile to help me stay on the right pace."
Is being negative a positive?
A: Coaches have long preached the virtues of so-called negative splits, where the second half of a race is run faster (and with speedier split times) than the first half. Apparently, those coaches knew why. Tucker recently analyzed world record performances from 1912 to 2004 and discovered that it's extremely rare for a record to be broken with a positive split. "Only in races of 800 meters or less," he says, "will you see the first half of the race" run faster than the second half. Otherwise, in longer distances, say, 5000 and 10,000 meters, "Nobody has ever broken a world record with a faster first half."
Okay, so negative splits seem to be the way to go, right? Not so fast. Instead of a pacing approach that relies on negative splits, coaches are increasingly leaning toward a so-called even pacing approach. Again, the data show why. "There was a time, until the 1980s, where the 5-K and 10-K records had a very fast start, slow in the middle, and fast at the end," Tucker says. Now, instead of holding back in the middle of the race and picking up the pace toward the end, today's top runners run an even pace throughout the whole race, Tucker says, with the only variation coming in the last kilometer or so when racers drop a final kick. "[Haile] Gebrselassie's current marathon world record [2:03:59] is relatively even-paced, and that's definitely optimal."
While a recent RW survey showed that a larger percentage of readers PR'ed with negative splits than with even splits, the pros recommend running an even pace the whole distance. "Negative splits [are] a skill that takes a long time to master and lots of training to get used to the amount of suffering you experience at the end of the race," says Matt Tegenkamp, the American record holder in the two-mile. "Even splits let you use the least amount of energy for the majority of the race."
Pace Yourself
Do questions about setting (and maintaining) the right race pace constantly nag you? Relax. We've got the answers.

Candida Database
The sequencing and annotation of five Candida species (C. albicans (WO-1), C. tropicalis, L. elongisporus, C. guilliermondii, and C. lusitaniae) was proposed by the Fungal Genome Inititative and funded by the NHGRI. These genomes as well as C. albicans (SC5314) sequenced at Stanford and the Biotechnology Research Institute of the National Research Council Canada and three related species being sequenced at the Welcome Trust Sanger Institute and at Genoscope provide an extraordinary opportunity for the comparative analysis of genes and genomes across the Candida clade, as well as to the sister Saccharomyces clade.
Project Background
Candida species are the most common human fungal pathogens. Candida cause severe systemic disease in individuals who are immunocompromised, post-surgery, or taking broad-spectrum antibiotics. Although a single species, C. albicans, is responsible for about half of the Candida infections, a wide variety Candida species contribute to the remainder, and the prevalence of these non-albicans infections is increasing (1). The genome sequence of C. albicans (SC5314) (2, 3) represented an enormous advance in the study of Candida, providing the foundation for systematic gene studies. As part of the Fungal Genome Initiative, we have sequenced and annotated five Candida species: C. albicans (WO-1), C. tropicalis (MYA-3404), L. elongisporus (NRRL YB-4239), C. guilliermondii (ATCC6260), and C. lusitaniae (ATCC42720). All clones for these five genomes were constructed here at The Broad Institute. Three additional recently sequenced genomes also fall within this phylogenetic group: C. dubliniensis, C. parapsilosis, and Debaryomyces hansenii. This growing set of Candida genome sequences allows comparisons across a range of evolutionary distances, enabling many different approaches to study the conservation of genes and regulatory elements as well as the evolution of these elements and genomic architecture within Candida species.
This work is taking place within the framework of a community based analysis project led by Christina Cuomo (Broad Institute), Geraldine Butler (University College, Dublin, IRE), Neil Gow (University of Aberdeen, UK), and Michael Lorenz (University of Texas, Houston Medical School).

SNPs were discovered by comparing the sequencing reads with the reference assembly.
The reads were aligned with the assembly using the Blat algorithm. The alignments thus obtained were filtered; reads that did not have a unique placement in the assembly or had >20% gaps in them were rejected.
Neighborhood Quality Standard (NQS) algorithm was used to identify high confidence polymorphic sites. SNPs were identified as single-base sequence variants that had a minimum PHRED base quality of 25 at the position of mismatch, a neighborhood base quality of 20, and no mismatches within 5 bp.

cool water sea scents and sun is the 2nd davidoff fragrance i bought. it is very subtle and pleasant to the senses. for the life of me, though, i cannot tell the difference between this one and the original cool water. more tangy, perhaps? anyway, love the scent.

A light, fresh, fragrance. Very subtle. It is similar to Tursiops and a fragrance Victoria's Secret used to have called Pisces. I just love this fragrance even though it is elusive and does not stay long. It makes me want to travel to a seaside resort.
