For this collection, the 1996 and 2000 merged data includes only the country of Germany. The survey, which employed standardized survey procedures and data collection instruments across all countries, focused on normative social justice concepts such as entitlement, equality of economic opportunity, and reward distribution. The study design provides analysis of normative justice at a micro level, involving respondents' evaluation of justice or rewards received by individuals and small groups, and at a macro level, through the evaluation of fairness of reward distribution at the aggregate or societal level. Variables in the dataset include demographic characteristics of the respondent, such as age, sex, marital status, education, employment, and occupation. In this survey, occupation has been classified utilizing the International Standard Classification of Occupations, and the Goldthorpe Class Categories, with the addition of the English-language version of the German "Berufsstellungen". Respondents were also queried about actual and desired income, what factors respondents believe determine level of pay and their fairness, dependence on pension or social welfare programs, satisfaction with the sociopolitical system, perceived and/or preferred role of the government in job allocation, and standard of living. 2010-02-08 survey data 22750 10.3886/ICPSR22750.v1 Germany Global 1996-06--1997-01 2000-10--2001-02 ICPSR metadata records are licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial 3.0 United States License (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/us/).

The İzmit Clock Tower (Turkish: İzmit Saat Kulesi) in İzmit, Turkey is one of many clock towers that were built throughout the Ottoman Empire as a result of the decree which was sent to the provincial governors to commemorate the 25th anniversary of Sultan Abdülhamid II's ascension to the Ottoman throne. It was designed by architect Vedat Tek upon the order of Musa Kazım Bey, the governor of İzmit, and built in 1901. Other sources name the architect of the tower as Mihran Azaryan who was an Armenian-Ottoman of Izmit origin.[1]
The neoclassical clock tower, which stands just in front of the Hünkar Pavilion of Sultan Abdülaziz, has four floors with dimensions 3.65 m × 3.65 m (12.0 ft × 12.0 ft). The ground floor houses fountains, while the clock is on the top floor. All four facades of the middle floors are decorated with the seal of Sultan Abdülhamid II. The pointed cone on top is coated with lead.
The clock tower has been an inseparable part of the history of İzmit throughout the 20th century, and has become the symbol of the city.
In the former Balkan provinces of the Ottoman Empire, particularly in present-day Serbian, Bosnian and Montenegrin towns such as Belgrade, Prijepolje, Sarajevo, Banja Luka, Gradačac and Stara Varoš, similar Ottoman era clock towers are still named Sahat Kula (deriving from the Turkish words Saat Kulesi, meaning Clock Tower.)

Okay so I was wondering if any kind people will let me know if I'm on the right track?
This is my riding from the beginning until a year ago
Then when I first started English a little over a year ago
Then from June 2012 first tried a little jumping (poles.... Lol)
Oct 2012 first time jumping
Nov 2012 first time riding green horse
Nov 2012 first time jumping bareback and new barn
Late nov 2012 new lease horse
Late dec 2012early jan 2013 new horse!
Broke my own horse
It would be amazing if you could watch all of them and tell me if I've improved enough, and how I could improve more? I'm so proud to say that the last video is my very own mare, and everything she knows is taught by me :) only started riding regularly 3 years ago, but the videos really only start from last year.
Posted via Mobile Device
You can see that you did improve! You got to work on making sure your heels stay down. I could see in some of the videos your toes started to tip down. Try some balancing exercises they will help with posting and position! Try not to let your legs wiggle around also keep your hands quiet. All in all you improved well :) your mare is beautiful good luck and have fun! Hope I helped!

Chateau La Tour Carnet Haut Medoc 2009
Bordeaux Red Blends from Medoc, Bordeaux, France
Winemaker's Notes
This winegrowing estate goes back to the XIIth century, and is without a doubt one of the oldest châteaux in the Médoc. The medieval architecture features a tower built in 1120 and the château is surmounded by a moat. La Tour Carnet has had several illustrious owners, including the family of Michel de Montaigne, one of the greatest French philosophers and twice-elected Mayor of Bordeaux.
Critical Acclaim
The Wine Advocate - "This dense purple wine displays notes of charcoal, subtle toast and white chocolate as well as blueberry and blackberry liqueur intermixed with hints of graphite and licorice. Dense, full-bodied, unctuously textured, and quite long and thick, this concentrated, impressively endowed wine is silky-textured and already accessible. However, I suspect its best days are at least 5-7 years ahead of it. It should keep for a minimum of two decades."
Wine Enthusiast - "Firmly dry wine, solid with many firm, wood-derived tannins. It gives bitter coffee and cranberry juice flavors, but also manages to retain freshness.
Barrel Sample: 90-92 Points "
International Wine Cellar - "Saturated, bright red-ruby. Lively aromas of cassis, blackberry, licorice and mint. Moderately sweet and vinous, with ripe, well-integrated acidity and graphite minerality giving lift to the very rich flavors of dark berries, chocolate and sexy oak. This dense, concentrated wine really calls for five years of cellaring and is built for a graceful evolution in bottle. Looks to be the top vintage yet for this Bernard Magrez wine."

Chateau La Tour Carnet Winery
The origins of La Tour Carnet lie in the Middle Ages, although the exact details are lost in the mists of time. Initially named Chateau de Saint-Laurent, some parts of the building, specifically the round tower, date from the 11th Century. The fortress was inhabited as early as the 12th Century, by the English, and it constituted a valuable military asset when Bordeaux was under English rule. The seigneurie of St-Laurent at this time was held by the Foix family, who were closely allied to the English king. Nevertheless, the land eventually fell to French rule once again, to which the then incumbent Comte Jean de Foix refused to submit, a decision that would eventually cost him his life. He was defeated by le beau Dunois, a compatriot of Jeanne d'Arc, and the impressive castle was partly destroyed. Following these events the ruined property passed through the hands of a succession of owners, before coming to Thibault de Carmaing in the 16th Century and eventually to Charles de Leutken, a man of Swedish origin, two hundred years after that. It remained with his descendents, and at the time of the 1855 classification was under the direction of Angélique Raymond, the wife of Jean-Jacques Leutken, who extolled a vineyard which covered 52 hectares. The current owner is Bernard Magrez, who is the proprietor of a number of other Bordeaux estates, most notably Pape Clément in Pessac-Léognan and Fombrauge in Saint Émilion.

About MedocView a map of Medoc wineries (MEH-dok)
Médoc is the region that encompasses the smaller appellations of Pauillac, Margaux, St.-Estèphe & St.-Julien. As a larger appellation, it contains many chateaux that are the same style of the smaller appellations, but at a smaller price. There are two regions of the Médoc – the Bas Médoc (or lower-Médoc) and the Haut Médoc (or upper-Médoc) – so given the names as the Bas Médoc is lower elevation (yet northern) and the Haut Médoc is higher elevation (but south of Bas Médoc). Most quality wines come from the Haut Médoc, although many wines carry just the appellation Médoc.
Notable FactsSituated in the Haut-Médoc, west of the river are the communes Listrac & Moulis. Between these two appellations and the river lie many Médoc chateaux producing delicious, Cabernet Sauvignon-based wines, often at a good value. Wines of the Médoc and Haut-Médoc appellation are less expensive, yet delicious, ways to experience the left bank of Bordeaux. Most are not as complex or age-worthy as those wines from the smaller communes along the riverbank, but many are great everyday wines, particularly suited for enjoying with food.
About France - Other regionsWhen it comes to wine, France is a classic. Classic blends, grapes and styles began in the country and they still remain. Think about it - people ask for a Burgundian style Pinot Noir, they refer to wines as Bordeaux or Rhone blends - Champagne even had to pass a law to stop international wineries from putting their region on the label of all sparkling wine.
The top regions of France are: Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne, Languedoc-Roussillon, Loire, Rhone. And these regions are so diverse! It makes sense that wine regions throughout the world try to emulate their style. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah are no longer French varieties, but international varieties. They may not be the leader of cutting edge technology or value-priced wines, but there is no doubt that they are still producing wines of great quality and diversity.

Alcohol By Volume GuideMost wine ranges from 10-16% alcohol by volume. Some varietals tend to have higher (for example Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon) or lower alcohol levels (Pinot Noir and many white varietals), but there is always some variation from producer to producer. Some wine falls outside of this range, for instance Port weighs in closer to 20%, while Muscat and Riesling are usually a bit below 10%.
Wine Style Guide
Light & Fruity
- Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Smooth & Supple
- Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Earthy & Spicy
- Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Big & Bold
- Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.

Petition For Metric In US Halfway To Requiring Response From the White House 1387
from the keeping-it-imperial dept.
Metric is the tool of unbridled liberalism creeping into our once-brave country. Introduced by a Negro in 1962, the Metric system is the favorite of politically correct pansy-boys everywhere.
Why won't people think of America first for once?
-- Ethanol-fueled
Right. And now the Metric system itself is from the US? Who writes this stuff.
Do you really expect that most American will accept the metric system if it is somewhat unamerican? I don't mind it been presented as an american invention if it can help bring the US in the 20th century.
Also, I suspect this is exactly the idea behind this article. So shut up about it, and let this US metric system get root.
13,000 American signed? That's like 20,000 in metric! (or airplane seats)
Yeah, these editors, sheesh. You give them an inch, they take a mile.
So? There are 1000 mInch in an Inch. There are 1000 inch in a kiloInch. There is nothing special about the meter.
Right. And now the Metric system itself is from the US? Who writes this stuff.
Do you really expect that most American will accept the metric system if it is somewhat unamerican? I don't mind it been presented as an american invention if it can help bring the US in the 20th century.
Also, I suspect this is exactly the idea behind this article. So shut up about it, and let this US metric system get root.
Once you convert over to metric, it's the 21st century.
Who writes this stuff.
Sorry, the thing went through several revisions : )
Could you pick up some robertson screwdrivers as well? Last time I shipped a crate to the US, they used crowbars to open it up.
Whenever I ship something big to the US, I make a point to attach a note to the outside of the crate warning them about the Robertson screws, and informing them that for their convenience, I have included a pack of Robertson bits inside the crate.
I little piece of my soul dies every time I have to measure something in 1/32th's of an inch.
No, the Death Star will use imperial units, duh!
The rest of the world just isn't smart enough to learn the US Standard system. It really confuses them, and the only way they can maintain any sort of smug sense of superiority is by belittling the way we measure cups and feet.
Besides, that is what God created conversion programs for.
God crashed a multi-billion dollar research craft into Mars?
If I'm fishing in my pants to figure out what all the "fur" is about... that means I have been away from it for far too long.
When I see a distance of a multiple of 60 one can quickly determine how many hours it will take to get there when driving.
Until time is also switched over to base 10 using miles/hr has a very nice 1:1 mapping with time! (assuming one drives 60 mi/hr.) The metric is a nice scientific system; the imperial system is a "nice" organic system. There is no reason BOTH systems couldn't be kept on the signage.
Ummm, yeah. I'm assuming you either just forgot your sarcasm tag or had a massive brain fart....
Last I checked km / hour was 1:1 as well. 1 hour @ 65 km/hour = 65km traveled.
So one American is equivalent to approximately 1.5 metric people. Yes, we Americans know we are overweight compared to the rest of the world, but that doesn't mean you have the right to poke fun. We just made a "different life choice", that's all.
I actually once got disciplined as a kid for calling another kid fat. We can't help who we are and it isn't right to focus on peoples flaws as it prevents us from feeling good about ourselves. I wonder how much of our overweight problems and poor health is a direct result of all that PC garbage that was crammed down our throats as children.
I would wager that 1/3 of a meter is "1/3 of a meter"? How much is 1/5 of a foot?
One toe?
A kilobyte is 10 bits
That's you off the next Mars probe team.
How much is 1/5 of a foot?
One toe?
Even my big toe is less than one tenth the size of my sole.

DALLAS Before a crowded congregation at Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship in Dallas, two families linked hands and quietly prayed.
The audience is mesmerized, but not because of the sermon. It is the generosity and painstaking decision of a stalwart mother that has their attention.
For more than three months, Tina Salazar has second-guessed her last-minute decision to donate the organs of her 20-year-old son Mason after he was shot and killed.
She admits that giving life is a great reward, but it comes at a price.
When it's done, it's like everyone moves on but you, Salazar said.
But her decision to donate Mason's organs now gives new life to five strangers, including a 61-year-old who received his heart; a 55-year-old who got his lungs; someone unknown who received his liver; and two teenagers who now have Mason's kidneys.
Only one of the recipients, 16-year-old Bryson Lewis, offered thanks for the donation. Salazar said that made her reassess her initial apprehension.
To have one boy come forward and say, 'Hey, thanks. Your son did not die in vain, that he gave something,' was really special and they are really good people, she said.
Bryson and his mother, Cynthia Jefferson, first thanked the Salazars in the form of a private letter, and then publicly at Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship.
Jefferson said she can't thank the Salazars enough. We're blessed that you guys made the decision, and we will honor Mason's life, she said.
Both families chose to share their story to inspire others to do the same.
Without the gift, I could not do what I am able to do now, Bryson said.
His new kidney lets him march with his high school band for the first time ever.
Mason's donation leaves a legacy for his daughter and family, and most importantly his memory lives on.
I'm glad that he's living and that he has a part of Mason out there there is a part of him out there, said Lisa Mitchell, the mother of Mason's daughter. It's hard, she added through tears.
Tina Salazar is now asking state lawmakers to consider what she's calling Mason's Bill, hoping to establish new legislation that would provide financial incentives to the love ones ofthe donating families.

The truth is, preparing to tackle the healthcare challenges of an impending flu surge is not a job for a committee, nor can it be begun during the emergency. A single point of coordination for flu response should be appointed within the federal government to establish a means for distributing critical supplies where they are needed.
The truth is, people need to be made aware that the flu will have an impact on the U.S. economy and an economic recovery plan to minimize the financial impact of a flu surge needs to be prepared now. Without such candor and advanced planning, the impact could be exacerbated.
The truth is, we don't know what is going on behind the scenes. If steps have already been taken, or if plans to undertake them have already been made, the American people need to be told the truth about the potential healthcare system vulnerabilities and how they will affect those who become sick. Similarly, we need to be told about the potential economic impact on all of us, and how we can take steps to minimize the economic impact.

Another book suggestion - When You Eat At The Refridgerator, Pull Up A Chair" by Geneen Roth. It's not targeted towards Paleo or Primal, but looks at our relationship with food, emotional eating and ways to break that cycle. I can relate to a lot of what you have said and I found it helpful, so maybe worth a try.
Personally I would recommend speaking to someone independent (such as a counsellor) over parents or friends any day. My mum is fantastic and extremely supportive but finds it difficult to listen to me vent about things that upset me without also getting upset and offering a whole range of solutions - and I am 32!! A counsellor will take a much more objective view.

WIFLATT - Whatever I Feel Like At The Time
I'm pushing 100,000 miles of riding. (Not a record by any means I know but a fairly experienced rider.)
I actually enjoy riding in Levis and a t-shirt without a helmet. (In the right weather and not city riding.) But I live in Washington where there's a helmet law so often ride my LT with an HJC half helmet if the weather is nice. When touring I always have both a half and fullface with me on that bike.
I always wear a fullface for city riding - too many idiots aorund here. I always wear gloves, protective eyewear and riding boots.
I usually wear a well-armored mesh, textile or leather jacket. Draggin jeans or armored pants depending on the weather.
On my other bikes, I always wear a full-face Arai Quantum because of the wind. I figure if I'm going to wear a helmet, I might as well have a good one.
Been down twice, one serious accident that totaled the bike and damaged my knee a bit, one not so bad low side into a ditch. In both instances I was wearing a fullface Arai Quantum. In neither case did my helmet touch the ground but in the last few milliseconds before impact I was
glad to have it on. I suppose I should've learned something from those experiences, guess not...

Report: Tim Thomas nearing decision on return to NHL
|09.10.13 at 1:15 pm ET
According to ESPN's Craig Custance, former Bruins goalie Tim Thomas is nearing a decision on where he will play this coming season. Thomas took last season off for personal reasons and was traded to the Islanders for a conditional pick that did not vest since he did not play.
Tim Thomas closing in on a decision. Possibly today. Discussions continue with multiple teams.
' Craig Custance (@CraigCustance) September 10, 2013
It's been a strange summer for Thomas, who turned 39 in May. He became a free agent at the expiration of his deal in July, but did not express his intentions to play in 2013-14 until the first day of free agency (which he did through then-agent Bill Zito).
Then, after Zito negotiated an eight-year, $56 million contract for Tuukka Rask, Zito left his agency (Acme Sports) to become the assistant general manager of the Blue Jackets. Thomas is now represented by Markus Lehto of Acme Sports. Lehto has denied that Thomas will sign with a team on Tuesday.
Tim Thomas's agent Markus Lehto says his cleint won't sign today. Says he's having several discussions with teams.
— News1130 Sports (@News1130Sports) September 10, 2013
Lehto says Thomas wants to be a #1 goalie – not backup which would rule the #Canucks out.

Novel - Pride & Joi
Artist: Novel
Producer: Justin Kahler
Album: Under Water, Overwhelmed EP
Avg Rating: 3.5 ( 2 votes )
Of the six songs that make up Novel's most recent project, five have been featured in The DJBooth to date. Clearly, number six must be a colossal dud, a lackluster track marring an otherwise flawless set… right? Wrong; as it matter of fact, it seems like the multi-talented Booth fave may have saved the best for last. A slow-burning ballad addressed to an estranged S.O., Pride & Joi finds the ATL native pouring his heart out over a lush, melancholy beat by frequent collaborator Justin Kahler. In addition to starring in the record's simple, emotionally-affecting official video, Novel directs it with the help of Jay Blakk and Melanie Burke. If you haven't already copped Under Water, Overwhelmed, you can still stream and purchase the November 2012 EP right here in The DJBooth.

This is probably what you get if you order hot wings in a bar in the US. It really can't be beaten. Delia does a good recipe for a blue cheese dip to accompany it.
08 December 2014
Love this stuff. I agree with reviewer 'kitchen Queen' this is the stuff to use to make proper buffalo wings. Also - cook a chicken burger then add the same sauce mix to the cooked burger for a great buffalo burger.

Love at first taste
I love this stuff. I buy 3 or 4 bottles a time and smother everything in it. At breakfast on eggs, quality. At lunch in a sandwich, superb. A chicken dinner is not the same without it. Just the right heat kick with amazing zingy flavour. I am a man who loves ultra hot sauces and the extra hot version is probably even better than this but this is the go to hot pepper sauce in my opinion. Awesome!
Cola Ribs
These American-style sticky ribs are dark and treacly with warming spices offset by crisp and zingy coleslaw. Cola may seem like an unusual addition but the sugary drink reduces down to a sweet and sticky glaze. Make sure to use full-fat cola or the effect won't be the same.

Philippines to give US forces access to up to 5 military bases
Published on May 2, 2014 4:59 PM
MANILA (REUTERS) - Up to five Philippine military bases will be made available for US forces to rotate aircraft, ships, equipment and troops, Manila's chief negotiator of a new security pact said on Friday, as the Philippines looks to counter China's rising power in the region.
A new 10-year military agreement - the Enhanced Defence Cooperation Agreement (EDCA) - also covers storage of equipment for maritime security and humanitarian assistance. It was signed with the United States last week, hours before President Barack Obama arrived for a two-day visit to Manila.
"Right now, the discussions would be ranging from three to five Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) bases," Mr Pio Lorenzo Batino, a defence undersecretary and head of the negotiating panel, told a news conference. "That's not final."
He said the army's jungle training base in Fort Magsaysay, north of Manila, was "ideal location" for the United States because the two oldest allies in the region regularly hold joint exercises there.

FinalMouse 2015 - Review/
FinalMouse 2015
The story of how I stumbled across this mouse / company is a little weird-- they were apparently in some kind of stealth mode, and were using Amazon as a method of fulfillment and distribution to a group of testers that included some professional level gamers. One of them (adreN) commented about the mouse on stream, and that's how I came to find out about it. I dug for a bit of info and didn't really find much, with the exception being a review posted by a well respected "mouse expert" on the Overclock.net forums, which ended up being taken down, and a representative from FinalMouse directly posting on the forums.
All that being said, I found the mouse on Amazon, which was Prime eligible, and ordered it with next day shipping. Below is my review and thoughts/findings.
Please note that this is likely a "pre-final version" product, meaning that it's slightly further along than beta, but not quite "production ready". The information here is based on not only my thoughts/findings, but by the posts of FinalMouseJude on the Overclock.net forums.Read More

Advanced breast cancer edges up in younger women
Friday - 3/1/2013, 2:20pm EST
AP Medical Writer
CHICAGO (AP) -- Advanced breast cancer has increased slightly among young women, a 34-year analysis suggests. The disease is still uncommon among women younger than 40, and the small change has experts scratching their heads about possible reasons.
The results are potentially worrisome because young women's tumors tend to be more aggressive than older women's, and they're much less likely to get routine screening for the disease.
Still, that doesn't explain why there'd be an increase in advanced cases and the researchers and other experts say more work is needed to find answers.
It's likely that the increase has more than one cause, said Dr. Rebecca Johnson, the study's lead author and medical director of a teen and young adult cancer program at Seattle Children's Hospital.
"The change might be due to some sort of modifiable risk factor, like a lifestyle change" or exposure to some sort of cancer-linked substance, she said.
Johnson said the results translate to about 250 advanced cases diagnosed in women younger than 40 in the mid-1970s versus more than 800 in 2009. During those years, the number of women nationwide in that age range went from about 22 million to closer to 30 million -- an increase that explains part of the study trend "but definitely not all of it," Johnson said.
Other experts said women delaying pregnancy might be a factor, partly because getting pregnant at an older age might cause an already growing tumor to spread more quickly in response to pregnancy hormones.
Obesity and having at least a drink or two daily have both been linked with breast cancer but research is inconclusive on other possible risk factors, including tobacco and chemicals in the environment. Whether any of these explains the slight increase in advanced disease in young women is unknown.
There was no increase in cancer at other stages in young women. There also was no increase in advanced disease among women older than 40.
Overall U.S. breast cancer rates have mostly fallen in more recent years, although there are signs they may have plateaued.
Some 17 years ago, Johnson was diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer at age 27, and that influenced her career choice to focus on the disease in younger women.
"Young women and their doctors need to understand that it can happen in young women," and get checked if symptoms appear, said Johnson, now 44. "People shouldn't just watch and wait."
The authors reviewed a U.S. government database of cancer cases from 1976 to 2009. They found that among women aged 25 to 39, breast cancer that has spread to distant parts of the body -- advanced disease -- increased from between 1 and 2 cases per 100,000 women to about 3 cases per 100,000 during that time span.
The study was published Tuesday in the Journal of the American Medical Association.
About one in 8 women will develop breast cancer in their lifetime, but only 1 in 173 will develop it by age 40. Risks increase with age and certain gene variations can raise the odds.
Routine screening with mammograms is recommended for older women but not those younger than 40.
Dr. Len Lichtenfeld, the American Cancer Society's deputy chief medical officer, said the results support anecdotal reports but that there's no reason to start screening all younger women since breast cancer is still so uncommon for them.
He said the study "is solid and interesting and certainly does raise questions as to why this is being observed." One of the most likely reasons is probably related to changes in childbearing practices, he said, adding that the trend "is clearly something to be followed."
Dr. Ann Partridge, chair of the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's advisory committee on breast cancer in young women, agreed but said it's also possible that doctors look harder for advanced disease in younger women than in older patients. More research is needed to make sure the phenomenon is real, said Partridge, director of a program for young women with breast cancer at the Harvard-affiliated Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.
The study shouldn't cause alarm, she said. Still, Partridge said young women should be familiar with their breasts and see the doctor if they notice any lumps or other changes.
Software engineer Stephanie Carson discovered a large breast tumor that had already spread to her lungs; that diagnosis in 2003 was a huge shock.
"I was so clueless," she said. "I was just 29 and that was the last thing on my mind."
Carson, who lives near St. Louis, had a mastectomy, chemotherapy, radiation and other treatments and she frequently has to try new drugs to keep the cancer at bay.
Because most breast cancer is diagnosed in early stages, there's a misconception that women are treated, and then get on with their lives, Carson said. She and her husband had to abandon hopes of having children, and she's on medical leave from her job.
"It changed the complete course of my life," she said. "But it's still a good life."

Researchers have long speculated that one subset of GABAergic interneurons might regulate movement by controlling the strength of sensory feedback signals from muscles. "These particular neurons are known to work presynaptically, by forming direct connections with the terminals of sensory neurons and suppressing the release of sensory neurotransmitter," said Dr. Fink. For technical reasons, the function of these interneurons, if any, in motor behavior has remained elusive.
Dr. Fink and his colleagues identified a way to access this subset of interneurons genetically in mice and then devised approaches to manipulate their function in a selective manner. In one experiment, they activated presynaptic inhibitory interneurons optogenetically, decreasing the strength of sensory-motor transmission. They also ablated these interneurons by making them selectively sensitive to a lethal toxin, abolishing their control over sensory feedback strength. Without sensory feedback regulation, forelimb movements were dominated by severe oscillatory tremors, drastically diminishing motor accuracy.
This finding, along with parallel modeling studies, indicates that presynaptic inhibitory neurons normally adjust the "gain" of sensory feedback at synapses with motor neurons and are therefore crucial for the smooth execution of movement. Understanding how these basic microcircuits regulate sensory input and motor output may, in the long run, provide insight into ways to combat the movement instability and tremor seen in many neurological disorders.
