Cassava is Africa's number two crop and a major source of calories for 700 million people, but it's highly susceptible to pathogens such as cassava mosaic disease. With African colleagues and students, Dr. Linda Hanley-Bowdoin of NC State University's College of Agriculture conducts basic research aimed at gaining a better basic molecular-level understanding of viruses and how they affect cassava.
North Carolina's economy and the quality of life here are linked inextricably with its natural resources — the air, the land and the water upon which we all depend.

Chinese boy, 10, jumps to death 'on teacher's order'
Published on Oct 31, 2013 5:50 PM
BEIJING (AFP) - A 10-year-old Chinese boy jumped 30 floors to his death after failing to write a self-criticism letter demanded by his teacher, state media reported.
The fifth-grade primary school student had been ordered to write a 1,000-character apology by his teacher for talking in class, China National Radio (CNR) reported Thursday on its website, citing a neighbour.
The educator allegedly told him to jump out of a building after he failed to complete the task, the report quoted relatives and the neighbour as saying.
"Teacher, I can't do it," was found written in one of his textbooks, CNR said. "I flinched several times when I tried to jump from the building." The child smashed into a parked car beneath the flat where his family live, the West China City News reported.

(AP) Drug and materials company Bayer AG says net profit rose 42 percent as sales of new drugs increased and one-time expenses dropped.
Net profit reached 733 million euros ($1.01 billion), up from 516 million in the same quarter a year ago. Revenue fell 0.2 percent to 9.643 billion euros.
The company said Thursday that revenues rose 6 percent when adjusted for the rise in the euro, which shrinks foreign-currency revenues when they are re-stated in euros.
The pharmaceuticals division saw its earnings rise by 8 percent to 915 million euros. The company credited sales of new products such as blood thinner Xarelto, eye medicine Eylea, and cancer drugs Stivarga and Xofigo. Their combined sales rose to 407 million euros from 82 million euros a year ago.

Prime abruptly stops billing for rare ailment
Hospitals including Paradise Valley in National City see drop in Medicare charges
Some former Prime employees claim that Dr. Prem Reddy, the chain's founder, has urged doctors and medical coders to pad computerized bills submitted to Medicare for reimbursement with conditions that qualify for premium payouts.
Prime insists its billings are accurate, a reflection of its concern for patient care. But in the past two years, three members of Congress have asked Medicare to investigate Prime for a form of suspected billing fraud called upcoding, in which a provider files false claims via computerized billing codes to reap enhanced reimbursement.
Among the unusual conditions in Prime's Medicare billings was kwashiorkor. According to the records, the reported outbreak at Shasta Regional Medical Center began and ended abruptly.
In 2008, the year Prime took over, the hospital reported eight cases of kwashiorkor – a rate of 0.23 percent, slightly higher than the statewide rate of 0.17 percent. In the first six months of 2009, the hospital reported two cases of kwashiorkor, according to a quarterly breakdown of hospital admission reports.
Kwashiorkor exploded after that: In the final six months of 2009, the hospital reported 301 cases of kwashiorkor. That was 16.7 percent of all the Medicare patients treated there, a rate 66 times the state average.
The rise in kwashiorkor cases at Shasta came around the time that the American Hospital Association, which advises hospitals on proper use of diagnostic codes, noted in a 2009 advisory that kwashiorkor is "extremely rare in the United States" and should be coded only when a physician specifically documented the condition.
In 2010, Shasta's rate was even higher: The hospital claimed 727 seniors suffered from kwashiorkor, 19.4 percent of all the Medicare patients treated. In the first quarter of 2011, Shasta billed Medicare for 100 cases of kwashiorkor.
California Watch published its first report on the outsized rates in February 2011, quoting experts who questioned whether senior citizens in Northern California actually were suffering from kwashiorkor.
After that, the reports plummeted: The hospital reported six cases for the rest of the year.
Bennett, the former fraud prosecutor, said the reported fluctuations in kwashiorkor cases were too extreme to reflect a genuine health care trend.
"You don't have 100 cases in one quarter and none in the next," she said.
Two medical experts told California Watch that they had similar concerns.
"I wouldn't expect the trend to dramatically change," said Dr. Matthew Butteri, a medical professor at UC Irvine and expert in geriatric medicine. It was "very hard to believe," he said in a phone interview.
He said the data likely reflected "a coding phenomenon, rather than a trend in nutrition and disease – a phenomenon of how doctors and health care workers write in the charts and (how) a documentation specialist attempts to label the degree of malnutrition."
Elaine Morrato, an epidemiologist and professor at the Colorado School of Public Health, said the timeline made her suspect "a change in diagnostic coding practice."
"Without more information, I cannot assess whether the change in coding corrected an intentional (perhaps fraudulent) billing practice or corrected an honest error in diagnosis," she wrote in an email.
Christina Jewett contributed to this report.

There is a big difference between yachts and commercial vessels just so that you are aware. Yachts tend to have small crews that spend their time delivering the boat to different places, cleaning it, and hosting. Commercial vessels see a lot of days underway but it involves lots of maintenance.
Your best bet is to send a resume to the boats and then follow it up with a call after a week or two. There really is no substitute for being able to show up as well. Many captains will like to try a crewmember out during yard period and if they work out, they get to go sailing. Once you get a year of experience under your belt, it will get a lot easier to get jobs but the first one is hard. A lot of people get their start splitting between a galley/hosting type job and a deckhand job.
Finding out how to contact boats can be difficult. The commercial boats can all be found with a web search using terms like windjammer, schooner, barque, etc. For yachts, your best bet might be to walk down to the docks where they tie up and start asking around. Don't be shy.
I did the commercial sail thing for 9 summers and it was great work. You have to be willing to work quite hard but it is very rewarding.

This month, Creston Mayor Warren Woods will be searching for a new Creston City Council member.
The council accepted an official resignation Tuesday from Loyal Winborn — leaving the council after accepting an IT director position at South Hamilton School District in Jewell. He served on the council since January 2008.
Winborn's departure leaves a vacancy on city council in ward 2. If interested in the seat, send a resume and letter of interest by email to email@example.com, by mail to PO Box 449, Creston, IA, 50801 or in person at 116 W. Adams St. in Creston.
Reminder: Only apply if you live within Creston's ward 2. Don't know which ward you live in? View the city's ward map at www.crestoniowa.gov/citycouncil.htm or call Lisa Williamson, city clerk, at 641-782-2000.
Woods said he's already received some interest in the seat. He noted Tuesday those applicants do not need to send any additional information.
Woods hopes to appoint a new councilperson by the first meeting in August. This new councilperson would fulfill the remainder of Winborn's term which expires Dec. 31, 2015.
Tent revival extended
Also Tuesday, Creston City Council voted 4-1 Tuesday to extend the noise permit for the tent revival festivities near Highway 34 in Creston through October.
The tent revivals are hosted by God's Outreach Deliverance church in Creston from 6 to 9 p.m. Fridays and 4 to 8 p.m. Saturdays. They started in May. The church's pastor JoAnna Davis said the revivals include prayer and worship, guest speakers and live music.
The council members agreed they had not heard noise complaints from neighbors near the tent revival. Dave Koets, ward 5 city councilman, did have some concerns with the length of the revival.
"My thought is we went from a 10-day revival to six months now," Koets said. "That's more having church there now. I guess, we've passed my definition of revival. Also, now that the church owns the tent is this going to happen every summer for six months?"
Council members Marsha Wilson, Gary Lybarger, Nancy Loudon and Koets voted in favor of expanding the noise permit for the revival through October. Ann Levine was absent and the ward 2 seat (Loyal Winborn) is vacant.
Randy White voted against the extension stating three months was long enough for the revival.
Library discussion
Mary Sid McDonald, Melvin Scadden and Frank Gale spoke against moving the city's library from Howard Street to Lincoln School during public forum Tuesday. Jeromy Brown, Jean Weisshaar and Karl Knock spoke in favor of the move.

Online Education
Over the past couple of years, online education has evolved significantly. E-learning and management software programs present educational material in a captivating and challenging way. Students now have the opportunity to interact with each other and discuss course content through the internet. Administrators and instructors can create and develop their own online courses. These programs also enable them to remain technologically updated with the new learning tools. Using such online tools, students and instructors can keep track of homework and lesson plans. Feedback on testing, lessons, and activities can be easily exchanged. It can then be used to monitor and train teachers.
Online Learning Games
The evolution of education, both traditional and online, is being facilitated in many ways. One of the major hurdles so far had been to engage students creatively. For this purpose, developers have been looking for universally effective means that could stimulate brain development and speed up the learning process. Online learning games have been designed keeping in view different target audiences and cover various learning aspects such as distance perception, spatial relationships, puzzle solving, and reaction time.

KOZHIKODE: Housewives and hoteliers are forced to use lesser quantity of tomato in various preparations.
The reason - tomato price peaked to Rs.35 on Sunday, to climb down to Rs.32 a kg on Monday. The skyrocketing price of many vegetable varieties for the last one week is burning the purse of the consumer, no end.
Drumstick is being sold at Rs.35 a kg., lady's-finger Rs.20, beans Rs.30 and carrot Rs.32 a kg.
Wholesale traders attributed the sudden rise in price to lack of arrivals from Tamil Nadu.
K.T. Satish, a retail vegetable trader at Moonamlingal, said last year this time the price of many of these vegetables was only half, including that of cabbage and cauliflower.
The price of tomato was as low as Rs.10 a kg a few months back and Rs.20 last week, traders said.
Heavy rain in Tamil Nadu is believed to be the reason for the shortage in supply.
A sizable quantity of the vegetables brought to the State are from Tamil Nadu, explains a wholesale trader at the Palayam market here.
It is only varieties such as ash gourd, banana, pumpkin, string beans and bitter gourd that are supplied from Malappuram and Wayanad districts, he points out.

I had been to VTK years ago and was fairly impressed by it's chic pan-Asian decor and thoughtful menu. My meal at that time was memorable enough to want to return and show it off to my travelling companion. Don't know WHAT happened over the years…….I found the overall demeanor of the staff as only remotely intrested in their jobs… This was particularly true of our waiter, who although slightly pleasant at first, had an attitude change when we failed to order cocktails or wine.
(Let me say here that I also felt fairly confident returning to tthis restaurant as they are owned by "Lettuce Entertain You" who's local restaurant "Big Bowl" is one of my favorite Asian restauarants in the Twin Cities despite its' being part of a "chain")
On to the food…we ordered the combination dinner for two $24.95 per person…not terribly spendy, but not cheap either. The first thing to arrive was an appetizer assortment plate. Everything in this plate was at best mediocre and seemed rather "pre-fab" (I'd definitely skip this route and choose an individual appetizer that appeals to you).
The somewhat shining star of the evening was the "Miso Salmon" (btw extra charge of $1 or 2 per person over set price)extremely well prepared and tasty and thankfully not overcooked.
The MAIN offender of the evening was a yellow curry with vegetables which we added chicken to and asked to be "spiced up" as the waiter had told us it was a fairly unspicy dish. Let me say here and now in ALL my years of eating Thai curries, this was the WATERIEST, most TASTELESS curry I have ever eaten.
The waiter never checked back with us so that we could voice our opinion…(they also didn't add much of any spice to the dish)
All in all a fairly disappointing meal……including the mango souffle which was pretty runny and overly sweet, With beverages, tax, tip, this was a $40+ per person meal……
We left feeling VERY unsatisfied by the food and the none too attentive staff. we will not be returning to VTK in future Chicago vists………..Big Bowl HERE WE COME!!!

Had dinner on Vong Thai Kitchen before going out on a weekend. The location is great and the food was pretty good. The service was excellent even when the place was full
October 4, 2009
Vong's has a nice atmosphere. The food is a little pricier than most Thai restaurants but I think they have the best pad thai. They have a good selection of bite size desserts and fun bubble teas.
October 3, 2009
Vong's is a beautiful restaurant in happening River North. The duck appetizer is great, and you can't go wrong with the pad thai or the red curry. Wine list isn't anything to write home about, but it's decent. During the holidays, they…

Once again, California is on the leading edge of environmental programs. An approaching April 1, 2014, deadline for publication of a "Priority Products List" under "Safer Consumer Products Regulations" that first went into effect on October 1, 2013, has manufacturers, importers, and retailers awaiting news of which products will be selected for further scrutiny.
The regulations were developed by the California Department of Toxic Substances Control ("DTSC") and will be implemented in a series of steps over the next few years.
The "Candidate Chemicals" list is a list of chemicals that exhibit a "hazard trait and/or an environmental or toxicological endpoint." This list is available here and includes about 1,200 chemicals, many of which are widely used in consumer products. The regulations also provide a mechanism for DTSC to add more chemicals to the list.
By April 1, 2014, DTSC will identify a short list of up to five "Priority Products" that contain a chemical on the Candidate Chemicals list for which there is a risk of human or environmental exposure. DTSC has not yet provided any indication of which specific products it might include on the Priority Products list. After the initial Priority Products list is published, DTSC must finalize the list through formal rulemaking, a process that may take up to a year.
Once the Priority Products list is finalized, companies that manufacture, import, or sell a Priority Product ("responsible entities") have 60 days to notify DTSC of its status as a "responsible entity" and 180 days to develop and submit to DTSC a preliminary "Alternatives Analysis" report. In the report, responsible entities must evaluate different ways of making the product to limit exposure to Candidate Chemicals. An Alternatives Analysis may include reducing or eliminating the chemical from the product entirely, or possibly constructing or formulating the product in a different way so that, even if the chemical is still used, the exposure risk to consumers and the environment is reduced. Because the analyses will likely contain valuable trade secret information about how the products are made and about the availability or viability of any potential reformulations, this disclosure requirement raises a host of questions regarding what companies must disclose, what they can withhold, and what the government will do to safeguard trade secret information.
After DTSC approves a preliminary Alternatives Analysis report, responsible entities will have one year to develop and submit a final report.
Once DTSC has received the final Alternatives Analysis report, it will use that information to require implementation of "regulatory responses." It is too early to tell what those responses will be, but they might include requiring companies to start making products in alternative ways to reduce chemical exposure or even banning products that manufacturers decline to reformulate.
Although no one knows yet which products will be identified as "Priority Products" requiring Alternatives Analysis, some major manufacturers have already taken proactive steps to remove Candidate Chemicals from their products. For example, Johnson & Johnson recently announced that it has completed the process of removing formaldehyde-releasing preservatives and reducing traces of 1,4 dioxane from all of its baby products.
Interestingly, Johnson & Johnson never added formaldehyde or 1,4 dioxane as ingredients in their products; those chemicals were byproducts of the manufacturing process. Johnson & Johnson's experience illustrates the fact that even companies that never intentionally use Candidate Chemicals need to think about whether those chemicals might still end up in their products.

Professional Ratings: 92 Australian Wine Companion
Region: McLaren Vale, Australia
Varietal: Rhone Red Blends
Other Info: Screw Cap Wines, Green Wines
Style: Smooth & Supple
Alcohol By Volume: 14.4%
Item no. 114557
Dark with a slight purple tinge. The nose opens with raspberry, blueberry and plum stone with a layer of graphite and rose water adding interest and elegance. The palate is darker with cherry and juicy plum opening before dark chocolate, mocha and blackberry emerge. The palate is mouth filling yet focused with an earthy character running throughout and building to a spicy finish that lingers. Powdery mineral tannins provide structure with little oak influence evident. Generous enough to drink on release this wine will age for up to ten years in a cellar and will benefit from decanting.
The first shiraz grenache blends were made by d'Arry Osborn 50 years ago, and have since been embedded in the history of McLaren Vale. The healthy colour of this vintage is a good start, as is the distinctly fragrant bouquet with its amalgam of spice, leather and red and black fruits. The palate has greater power than many previous vintages at the same stage of development. The wine will flourish in bottle, revealing ever more as it ages over this decade.

Born: September 10, 1966
Steve Herberman exhibits a vast harmonic palette involving uncommon stretches on the fretboard along with a real capacity to burn on fluent single note lines... His sheer command of the instrument puts one in mind of such jazz guitar masters as Joe Pass, Joe Diorio, Lenny Breau, and Gene Bertoncini. His nuanced touch, excellent tone, tasteful, even phrasing and fresh writing style, further elevates Herberman far above the pack of other talented Berklee grads...definitely worth checking out for fans of advanced jazz guitar. - Bill Milkowski, JazzTimes (05/07)
Steve is a graduate of Berklee College Of Music later adopting the seven-string guitar in 1993. Steve Herberman has performed at venues such as Birdland in NYC, Spazio in Los Angeles, the NAMM shows in Anaheim and Nashville, and recently at the North Wales jazz guitar weekend in the U.K. as a featured guest artist. Closer to home he has performed at Blues Alley, the Smithsonian Jazz Cafe, and the Kennedy Center For The Performing Arts. Steve has played with renowned musicians such as Keter Betts, Buster Williams, Gary Bartz, Drew Gress, Chuck Berghofer, Mark Ferber, Jim Snidero, Chuck Redd, Ali Ryerson, Steve Williams, Steve LaSpina, Jeff Hirshfield, John Pisano and many more....

The poll Dorset is a breed of domestic sheep that originated in Australia and was developed to be purebred hornless breed. It was developed between 1937 and 1954 by introducing the poll gene into the Dorset Horn breed and back breeding until the bloodline was nearly one hundred percent Dorset Horn. This breed shares its name with the polled Dorset that was developed in the United States at the North Carolina State University in the 1950's, but these two breeds are not the same. The poll...
The Norfolk horn, known by many other names including the Old Norfolk, the Blackface Norfolk Horned, and the Norfolk Horned, is a breed of domestic sheep that was developed in the heathlands of Norfolk, England. Unlike other black-faced sheep breeds, this breed is able to survive in dry and cool conditions. It was popular in its native country until the nineteenth century, during which time more improved breeds the Southdown were introduced. These two breeds were crossbred to develop the...
The Manx loaghtan is a breed of domestic sheep that originated in the Isle of Man. This breed descended from primitive sheep that once resided on the Hebrides, the Shetland Islands, and Scotland. Its name is derived from the Manx term lugh dhoan, which means mouse brown and is the color of the breed. The Manx loaghtan is small in size and the wool is dark brown in color, with the legs and face holding no wool. This breed is not polled, or hornless, and although the preferred amount of...

For the study, Dr. Park and his colleagues analyzed data from 2,240 patients with unprotected left main coronary artery disease treated at 12 medical centers in Korea. Of these, 318 were treated with bare-metal stents, 784 were treated with drug-eluting stents, and 1,138 underwent bypass surgery. During three years of follow-up, patients treated with bare-metal stents were nearly 11 times as likely to need a repeat procedure to reopen the target vessel when compared to those who underwent bypass surgery. However, the rates of death (hazard ratio: 1.04) and the combined rates of death, heart attack and stroke (hazard ratio: 0.86) were similar in the two groups. Patients treated with drug-eluting stents were nearly six times as likely to need a repeat procedure during three years of follow-up, but the rates of death (hazard ratio 1.36) and the combined rates of death, heart attack and stroke (hazard ratio: 1.40) were statistically similar, although there was a trend toward higher event rates with drug-eluting stents.
The next step is to test the studys findings in a more rigorous clinical trial, Dr. Park said. Based on these observations, a randomized trial comparing PCI with drug-eluting stents and CABG is warranted in patients with unprotected left main disease who are candidates for revascularization, he said. However, unprotected left main stenting should not be attempted in clinical practice before the physician has achieved specialized experiences.
Dr. Park will present the results of the Revascularization for Unprotect

Three Beautiful Places to See in Ocho Rios, Jamaica
by Taffy on 03/02/09 at 1:19 pm
Traveling to Ocho Rios? There are beautiful places to explore.
We did a lot of research on the various cruise review websites and ended up booking our own tour guide in Ocho Rios. He took us where we wanted to go and explained his culture as well as sang to us. It was one of the best ports we visited.
1. Dunn's River Falls and Beach are Ocho Rios most famous and popular visitor attractions.
If you can get here early you will miss the crowds. Walk down the boardwalk to the beach, bypassing the guides. You can climb the falls by yourself regardless what the people along the way tell you. You don't have to hold hands with anyone and you can climb at your own speed. Make sure and wear water shoes or you will have to rent them at the Falls. Once on the beach take a moment to look at the beautiful surroundings before you start your climb. The falls are scrubbed everyday to ensure good climbing.
Waterfalls greet you along the way and little pools formed naturally in the rocks make your climb refreshing and enjoyable. Take your time and enjoy the view. Make sure and take pictures along the way!
If you don't feel up to the climb, lounge at the beach or watch from various lookout points along the stairs.
Once you reach the top you can exit through the entrance (the exit will take you through VERY aggressive shops) or go back down and spend time on the beach.
2. Take a scenic drive through Fern Gully Rainforest.
There are more than 300 ferns along the 3 mile route. The drive is beautiful, green and lush. There are vendors along the way who are selling local fruit and candy. We tried a local candy made with coconut. Delicious!
3. Caribbean Sea is a gorgeous spot to snorkel, scuba dive and enjoy the beaches.
Our tour guide arranged for us to ride horses. We rode the horses through town and down to the beach. Then we rode out into the ocean!
Jamaica is a beautiful island! Enjoy, mon!

I say I'm a photographer, the inevitable question is, "so what kinds of things do you like to shoot?" This innocent question is a very difficult one for me because I am not devoted to a particular genre. I am a generalist. My best answer is to describe what I've most recently photographed, or, what I plan to photograph next.
Currently I'm featuring several portfolios.
Small Things
is my most recent series, which I have finally completed.
Small Things
is my study of beauty in everyday items.
Playing With Fire
is a hot series featuring several "selfie" images. Pyromania as art. .
Martha's Vineyard
, a study of an island in Massachusetts about which I've become quiet fond.
Protest And Patriotism
, which is the culmination of several years photographing two sides of the civil liberties debate that captures demonstrations of protest and exhibitions of patriotism that have in common their genesis as protected speech.
Oakland Thru My Eyes
, the beginning of a long term exploration of an interesting albeit controversial city. And
Healdsburg Afternoon
which includes some landscapes and other images resulting from a visit to the Dry Creek region of the Sonoma County town of Healdsburg. I am always working on new projects, so I will be adding new photographs, galleries and generally updating things.
Enjoy your browsing experience, and come back to see what's next!

Travis Barker's Wish To Fly To Australia!
The Blink 182 Drummer Hopes To Overcome His Fear Of Flying With A Trip Down Under
Blink 182 star Travis Barker has opened up about his fear of flying and revealed that he'd love to one day head back to Australia!
The drummer was involved in a horrific plane crash back in 2008 which killed four people, and reveals that he is still haunted by the accident and hasn't been on a plane since.
"I'm contemplating getting knocked out and getting on a plane to Australia. I want to overcome that eventually," he told The Red Bulletin.
"When I do, I think it's going to be Qantas. They never had a crash, never had a fatality — knock on wood," he added.
The band were last here eight years ago for their 'Blink 182 Tour 2004.'
Meanwhile, the rocker says that he feels that he is holding the group back because of his reluctance to step on a jet.
"I'm not flying, so it's hard to say what the band could do or what its potential is, because I can't really get everywhere," he admitted.
Travis caused speculation that the 'All The Small Things' rockers will be touring here next year when he posted a photo of them playing at 'The Eden Project' in the UK on Instagram and a fan commented on the picture, saying,
"Hey, there's this place called Australia that would love to see you guys too….."
Travis then replied,
"[Bandmembers] Mark [Hoppus] and Tom [Delonge] will be there in Feb of next year but with a full (sic) in drummer cause I don't fly. Sorry brotha."
Fingers crossed Travis overcomes his fears and heads Down Under soon!

Already reeling under an electoral washout in the Lok Sabha, the Congress may have more trouble on hand, with growing voices in the NCP demanding that they go it alone in the assembly polls if they do not get adequate number of seats from their ally.
NCP leaders, especially from western Maharashtra, Marathwada and some parts of Vidarbha are demanding that the party ditch the Congress, which is already at a low ebb after getting just two of the 48 seats in Maharashtra, and strike it out on its own in the elections due in October. A senior NCP leader said deputy chief minister Ajit Pawar and party's Maharashtra chief Sunil Tatkare were among those subscribing to the line, with party chief and former Union agriculture minister Sharad Pawar too being said to be in an uncompromising mood.
That the Congress has not yet responded formally to the NCP's demand for 144 seats or half of the state assembly's bench strength of 288 has added wind to the sails of those advocating the "go it alone" line. In 2009, the NCP fought from 114 seats, leaving the rest to the Congress. While the Congress has 82 MLAs, the NCP has 62.
"A stream of thought regarding contesting on our own strength has been gaining steam in the party. The proponents point out that we can win around 50 to 60 seats on our own regardless of whether we ally with the Congress or not. They argue that we must go it alone and gauge our strength. This will also help us increase our base across Maharashtra," the NCP leader said.
In the 1999 assembly elections, the NCP, which had been formed after splitting the Congress, secured 58 seats as against 75 for the Congress. The two parties had joined hands after the elections to dislodge the Shiv Sena and BJP from forming the government, with Vilasrao Deshmukh (Congress) as the chief minister and NCP's Chhagan Bhujbal as his deputy. "However, a lot of water has flown down the bridge since then and our grass-root base has increased," said the NCP leader.
In 2004, the NCP contested 124 seats, but was forced to whittle it down by the Congress to just 114 in 2009 on the basis of "the changed political scenario", with the grand old party getting 17 of 48 Lok Sabha seats in Maharashtra and the NCP just eight. The Congress could get an increased mandate in the Lok Sabha in 2009 with 206 MPs being elected.
"Technically, we are twice as strong as the Congress," said the NCP leader, adding that while the party could get four MPs elected from Maharashtra, the Congress had just two.
NCP's interviews for prospective candidates, which will begin from Monday, will cover all 288 constituencies, indicating that the party is in a belligerent mood. The NCP leader, however, said that regardless of the hawkish postures adopted by Congress leaders from Maharashtra, the party high command was in favour of an alliance with the NCP.
"In case, our respect is not kept intact and if we do not get adequate seats, our options are open," said senior NCP leader and former Union civil aviation minister Praful Patel, adding that the Congress was yet to formally respond to their seat-sharing demands.

elected to academy
collections closing to move
By Brandon Marshall Miller
As a high school student, La TaSha Levy decided against applying to the University
of Virginia. She saw it as a traditional, conservative and perhaps even racist
place. She didn't think she'd fit in.
So she disregarded the recommendations of her high school
counselors to apply to a number of prominent,
predominately white institutions, including U.Va.,
and enrolled instead at Hampton University.
wanted to go to a historically black college, and I wanted
to avoid the issue of racism that I thought was prevalent
at predominately white institutions," said
Levy, who grew up in Washington, D.C.
But after two years at Hampton, Levy decided to leave.
She was disappointed in her experience there,
though she realizes now that her expectations
I was expecting an African-centered curriculum, and it was Euro-centric," she
said. "I also thought it would be a place where all black people had unified
goals. But realizing that that wasn't the case wasn't a bad thing.
I learned that black people are not monolithic, and we have different interests
and aspirations."
At the suggestion of her god-brother, Mark Troy Holbrook
she transferred to U.Va. in 1998.
told me it would be a good fit for me," Levy said, "and that with
the school's tradition of student self-governance, I could shape my experience
here. I found that to be true."
The University's welcoming environment was a pleasant surprise to Levy,
and her fears of social hostility and academic neglect were allayed by the presence
and programming of the Office of African-American Affairs and several black faculty
members, including M. Rick Turner, dean of the Office of African-American Affairs,
and Ishmail Conway, Upward Bound Program coordinator.
Levy designed her third and fourth years to her liking.
She launched the Griot Society (a support organization
for students majoring in
African-American Studies).
And she organized an Afro-centric tour of Washington, D.C., which
the Office
of African-American Affairs continues to offer.
In 2001, a year after graduating with a bachelor's degree in African and
African-American Studies, Levy was hired by the Office of African-American Affairs
as director of the Luther P. Jackson Black Cultural Center.
asked La TaSha to be director of programming because of
her maturity, especially her cultural maturity, and her
potential to broaden the University's cultural
vision," Turner said. "Her cultural insights have not only benefited
the Office of African-American Affairs, but the University as a whole. I knew
she would be good, but she's been much more valuable than I had anticipated."
Levy's innovative programs include "Food for Thought," a biweekly
lunchtime discussion on various topics; "Black Screen," an African
or African-American movie screening and discussion, also biweekly; and "Sister
to Sister," a biweekly roundtable discussion for black women students on
identity, image and sexuality.
She brought speakers to the University for the annual
celebration of the life of Dr. Martin Luther
King Jr. – including, most recently, the comedian
and civil rights activist Dick Gregory — and has encouraged students to
assume greater roles in planning and organizing the event.
She also has served as a student mentor, especially to
black student leaders. Her experience in programming, expertise
in African-American
affairs, and
willingness to help out have made her an important asset
for students wishing to make changes
on Grounds.
was important for me to offer consistent programming and
opportunities every week for students to learn about and
discuss current issues relating to black
communities, and racial issues at U.Va.," said Levy, who has enjoyed her
directorship, but will leave the University to begin a graduate program in Africana
Studies at Cornell University this fall.
Though she's leaving the Grounds, her footprints will remain — footprints
that have helped to strengthen the University's ties to the local community,
according to Pat Lampkin, vice president for student affairs.
TaSha's creativity and leadership have benefited the University in important
ways," Lampkin said. "The programs she has brought to Grounds have
built strong bridges within the Charlottesville community, and they have introduced
us to major figures, vital topics and worthwhile questions."
of her work, there has been a marked increase in U.Va.'s exposure
to a wide variety of black professional and intellectual elites, and a rise in
consciousness regarding national issues and inter-racial relations, all of which
have enhanced U.Va.'s already-rich environment," said Myra Franklin,
president of the Black Student Alliance.
Franklin also appreciates Levy's personal warmth.

[A] provocative and original work...Jasanoff has pioneered the exploring of the workings of the gears and sprockets of the Fifth Branch.
— Daniel S. Greenberg
How can decisionmakers charged with protecting the environment and the public's health and safety steer clear of false and misleading scientific research? Is it possible to give scientists a stronger voice in regulatory processes without yielding too much control over policy, and how can this be harmonized with democratic values? These are just some of the many controversial and timely questions that Sheila Jasanoff asks in this study of the way science advisers shape federal policy.
In their expanding role as advisers, scientists have emerged as a formidable fifth branch of government. But even though the growing dependence of regulatory agencies on scientific and technical information has granted scientists a greater influence on public policy, opinions differ as to how those contributions should be balanced against other policy concerns. More important, who should define what counts as good science when all scientific claims incorporate social factors and are subject to negotiation?
Jasanoff begins by describing some significant failures--such as nitrites, Love Canal, and alar--in administrative and judicial decisionmaking that fed the demand for more peer review of regulatory science. In analyzing the nature of scientific claims and methods used in policy decisions, she draws comparisons with the promises and limitations of peer review in scientific organizations operating outside the regulatory context. The discussion of advisory mechanisms draws on the author's close scrutiny of two highly visible federal agencies--the Environmental Protection Agency and the Food and Drug Administration. Here we see the experts in action as they deliberate on critical issues such as clean air, pesticide regulation, and the safety of pharmaceuticals and food additives.
Jasanoff deftly merges legal and institutional analysis with social studies of science and presents a strong case for procedural reforms. In so doing, she articulates a social-construction model that is intended to buttress the effectiveness of the fifth branch.
[A] provocative and original work...Jasanoff has pioneered the exploring of the workings of the gears and sprockets of the Fifth Branch.
— Daniel S. Greenberg
[A] first-rate study...[Jasanoff's] findings have important bearing on the general concern with the impact of expertise on democracy.
— Sanford Lakoff
The problems of science and politics continue. Jasanoff's work will surely enlighten the debate.
— Susan Bartlett Foote
Jasanoff focuses down sharply on a set of solidly researched case-studies involving the Environmental Protection Agency and the Food and Drug Administration, and their handling of regulations concerning clean air, pesticides, and the safety of pharmaceuticals and food additives. But this apparent narrowness belies the theoretical significance of the book, which far transcends its empirical base in these examples and, for that matter, in the United States.
— Philip Gummett
Thorough and thoughtful. [The Fifth Branch] will remain the definitive work in its field for a considerable time to come.
— Roger Williams
Reading this well-written book would be excellent preparation for any scientist planning to participate in regulatory science in an agency or to serve on an advisory panel. And its insights into the workings of advisory committees could be useful to many others...no other book so thoroughly reviews the role science advisory groups have played.

The Walking Dead: 400 Days
Is there a way to ... (end of 400 days spoilers)
... Recruit Russell without recruiting Wyatt? Because as far as I know, the only way to recruit Russell is to tell him there might be people he knows at the settlement (as Tavia) but I just did that and it also recruited Wyatt, who I dont want.

Wyatt, so far I knows, always comes with.
Canonically speaking though..I think the whole group is supposed to go to the settlement, as evidenced by the ending cutscene.
Considering the two marks of censor bypassing, I am now replacing banned words with mew
Nope, that's impossible, since his back-up (if he got out of the car) is the same as Russell's. You also can't stop Bonnie from coming.
Something tells me they're all gonna end up wrapped up in the plot anyway, though.

Alright thanks, but are you sure about all of them somehow coming? I saw an interview with Telltale somewhere (think it was IGN) where one of the developers said something along the lines of "some aspects of 400 Days may or may not come into play in season 2" and at first I thought he meant they were simply considering making 400 Days a mostly stand-alone episode, but I feel he may have been eluding to characters that may or may not show up, depending on if they go to the settlement or not.
3DS Friend Code: 3351-4196-4357
ACNL Name: Lewis - Town: Grillage
Yeah I'm pretty sure, the ending sure seems to imply towards such despite the end results that shows you who stayed and who went.
Most likely when Season 2 comes about, and you start it without using a previous save, it will no doubt start with the group on full at the settlement or before it.
Considering the two marks of censor bypassing, I am now replacing banned words with mew
One of the Telltale guys posted this on Neogaf:
The goal isn't to get everyone to come with you. I mean... if that's the goal you want for yourself, and you want to play through a couple times to optimize for that, then good on you, but the game isn't going to declare you a winner or a loser for doing it. As far as "the point," we aren't saying what the point is, beyond "your choices told an interesting story," but your playthrough of season two isn't going to be objectively better or worse depending on what happens at the end of your playthrough, it will just be different.* This isn't "what the secret is" or something (I am literally just making this up as I write right now as an example to use) but just consider that within the confines of 400 Days you don't have any metrics by which to judge if going with Tavia is a good idea or not, other than you're playing as her for a minute.
Personally, I am sticking to all my initial decisions. I had everyone but Russel go with Tavia.
Well I certainly wasn't thinking along the lines of "good" or "bad." I just figured having them all go with her means they'll probably be in the story more, which I guess was the measure of success for me. If it turns out having them stay at the camp means they'll be in the story more, then oh well I guess we all got trolled.
The thing that makes me think going with Tavia = more plot relevant choice is that it's impossible to get everyone to stay at the camp, while it's quite possible to get everyone to go.

Michael Schumacher in Critical Condition Following Skiing Accident
Mercedes-Benz brand ambassador Michael Schumacher is in critical condition after the seven-time F1 champion underwent brain surgery needed as a result of an accident while skiing in Meribel, a ski resort in the Tarentaise Valley in the French Alps. The surgery was needed for Schumacher's serious head trauma, and the official statement from the hospital says "he remains in a critical condition." The press statement is signed by a neurosurgeon, the Grenoble University Hospital Center's deputy director Marc Penaud, and an anesthesiologist. Schumacher, whose 45th birthday is only a few days away (January 3) suffered "serious brain trauma with a coma" requiring an "immediate neurosurgical operation" after hitting his head… Continue Reading »

EUGENE, Ore. -- (Jan. 7, 2013) -- The ability to focus and switch tasks readily amid distractions was compromised for up to two months following brain concussions suffered by high school athletes, according to a study at the University of Oregon.
Research team members, in an interview, said the discovery suggests that some athletes may need longer recovery periods than current practices dictate to lower the risk of subsequent concussions. Conventional wisdom, said lead author David Howell, a graduate student in the UO Department of Human Physiology, has typical recovery at seven to 10 days.
"The differences we detected may be a matter of milliseconds between a concussed person and a control subject, but as far as brain time goes that difference for a linebacker returning to competition too soon could mean the difference between another injury or successfully preparing to safely tackle an oncoming running back," Howell said.
The findings are based on cognitive exercises used five times over the two months with a pair of sensitive computer-based measuring tools -- the attentional network test and the task-switching test. The study focused on the effects of concussions to the frontal region of the brain, which is responsible for working, or short-term, memory and executive function, said Li-Shan Chou, professor of human physiology and director of the UO Motion Analysis Laboratory.
The study was published online ahead of print by Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, the official journal of the American College of Sports Medicine.
"If a person goes back to the playing field without a full recovery, that person is put into great danger of being re-injured," Chou said. "In any given season, if you suffer a concussion, the chances of your suffering a second one is three to six times higher and suffering a third is eight times higher. There are accumulations in this kind of injury. It doesn't go away easily."

PHILADELPHIA -- If its Monday, it must be Philadelphia. For the third time in 11 days, the Wizards will play the 76ers. The Wizards dropped the previous two meetings, but that was back in the bad old days, before the teams recent run of competitive games.
Recent is a relative term, and the goal is still to win and not just be competitive. Still, there are tangible signs of progress for the Wizards since they last played the 76ers at home on Jan. 14. Before Sundays loss to the Celtics, the Wizards had a run of three straight games over 100 points after failing to reach the century mark in the seasons first 12 games.
We have reached the point where 10 days ago, we werent competing at a high level, Wizards coach Flip Saunders said. We are now competing at a high level. Now we have to find a way to close out games like we did against Oklahoma City.
The victory over the Thunder provided a much needed injection of confidence for a loss-weary Wizards team. The win was followed by a four-point loss to the Nuggets, but against the NBAs No. 1 team in steals, the Wizards committed only 11 turnovers.
In addition to the Wizards' focus on closing games, they must pay attention to playing complete games. The push at the end of Sundays Celtics game might not have been necessary had the Wizards not allowed a team without Rajon Rondo and Ray Allen to build a 15-point lead during a stretch from midway through the second quarter to midway through the third quarter.
NBA basketball is game of runs, but against elite teams, with or without two of their elite players, the Wizards are not in a place as a team where they can recover from huge deficits. To Saunders point about competing, the Wizards scored 29 points in the third quarter to prevent a collapse after falling behind by 15 points.
It is when playing from behind that the Wizards are most likely to have bad offensive possessions. On Friday the 13th against the 76ers in Philadelphia, the Wizards had a night worthy of the day. In a 120-89 loss, the Wizards managed only 35 points over the middle two quarters of the game.
The game against the 76ers at Verizon Center was better. The Wizards paid the price for a bad second quarter when they only scored 14 points, but the game also served as reboot to the 2011-12 season for John Wall. After committing seven turnovers in the first half against the 76ers, Wall only had six turnovers in the next 10 quarters, including the Thunder win.
Tonight, the Wizards will be trying to stop a four-game losing streak against a highly motivated 76ers team. It is the start of a seven-game homestand for the 76ers, and they return to Philadelphia with two losses in their last three games including a 113-92 defeat in Miami.

Markets for multi-channel speakers for PC have not seen many updates for a while. Recently, we got the Creative Inspire T6160, a 5.1 speaker for PC and Creative has promised to bring realistic surround sound to your desktop with this set of affordable speakers.
Creative Inspire T6160: Sound Quality
The Creative Inspire T6160 was tested in the labs at PCWorld.in.
As usual, we started the audition with Creative's own Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeMusic with our reference FLAC files queuing up on the Foobar2k player. In music playback, the Inspire T6160 delivered smooth highs and sufficient amount of upper mids. Cymbals and high hats sounded bright and but still could have been more articulate.
This was audible while playing tracks like Jack Johnson's Horizon Has Been Defeated or Radiohead's High and Dry. Vocals and guitars could have sounded richer with more depth as the lower mid range was lacking. The Logitech X-540 which falls in the same price range performed much better in this regard. But for higher frequencies, the Creative Inspire T6160 has bright and sparkling treble.
The Creative Inspire T6160 plays mid-bass well but is not able to reach the deep low-ends. The bass is punchy, warm and has good timing which is good for a budget system. But once again, the Logitech X-540's subwoofer has much more depth, detail and impact. The bass on the Inspire T6160 is just enough for playing music at moderate volume but towards the louder volume they tend to become boomy. In short, don't expect an earth-shattering bass from this budget system.
Be it a classical piece, smooth jazz, hip hop or heavy metal, one thing is clear, the Creative Inspire T6160 has bright highs but lacks details, articulacy and depth for the rest of the frequencies. Besides, they sound best at moderate volume as going beyond 80 percent of the maximum volume caused the sound to become badly distorted and painful to the ears.
In gaming and movies, the Creative Inspire T6160 failed to deliver. Movie and game dialogues were not as sharp and crisp as we heard on the Logitech X540. Further, the subwoofer failed to cope up with most of the actions scenes incorporating huge explosions and in one scene the roaring of a plane engine made the sub literally shake. Imaging and soundstage was good though at moderate volume. However, it fails to deliver distinctive sound across the whole frequency range. For immersive gaming and explosive bass experience, the Logitech X-540 is a much better bet.
NEXT: our expert verdict >>

May 25, 2015
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (AP) -- A Tennessee judge resigned last month after making a recording of fantasies so lurid that when the tape fell into the hands of the police and FBI, they thought they were listening to a torture session and believed it might be linked to a murder case.
Ultimately, investigators brought no charges against Circuit Judge John B. Hagler of Cleveland, and police said Wednesday he is not a suspect in any investigation.
The recording was investigated by authorities more than two years ago, but its existence did not come to light publicly until just a few weeks ago. And details on the contents are only now coming out, at a hearing that began Wednesday on whether police must release the tape.
The hearing continues Thursday.
During those two years, the judge remained on the bench, hearing mostly family court cases like divorces and child custody.
Among the mysteries: Why did he make such a recording? Why is it coming to light just now? And what, exactly, is on the tape?

Art & Sustainabilityby greenspacewriter 09/13/2014
As many of us know, the Brundtland Report defines sustainable development as "development which meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs." When one thinks of sustainability, in the general sense and in terms of sustainable development, art is typically not the first thought in mind. However, in discussing sustainable communities, art can play a huge role and should be viewed as key in future efforts. Why? In a nutshell, art can empower communities and deliver a sense of ownership of one's place. That is exactly the sort of concrete effort that can help develop social and economic resiliency.view more »

Mass Amateurism or the Polymath Revivalby greenspacewriter 12/26/2013
Nowadays, there is grassroots creativity all over the place. Or perhaps these terms have come into our mainstream dialogue. When it's more than a hobby and less than a profession, what exactly is it? I suppose the longer you study something, the more likely you are to become a specialist. I've met Detroit residents who have lived, worked, and fought for their midtown and uptown neighborhoods for decades. Local organizations call these residents local "historians". Many bloggers are considered journalists. And many writers, dabbling in the craft, well—they become accomplished novelists. And some of the finest environmental activists and sustainability geeks assumed this identity because they care about the environment and are always seeking new ways they can get involved in their communities.view more »

As the sea level rises, it will be affecting a large percentage of the world population. As the ocean gets warmer the sea level rises. And as the sea temperature gets warmer, the volume of water becomes larger. In the years to come, storms and flooding could overtake larger and larger parts of coastal communities. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has expanded the flood zone maps of much of New York City to reflect this new reality. What do we do about this?view more »
