Moye's childhood dream comes truePosted by on November 7, 2012 – 9:49 pm
Derek Moye grew up a Steelers fan living outside of Pittsburgh in Rochester, Pa., and now the rookie wide receiver's childhood dream has come true after he was signed to the team's practice squad.
"Being from the area and having a chance to come out here and be with the Steelers is a lifelong dream of mine," said Moye. "Just like everyone around here I was a huge Steelers fan. It's a lifelong dream to be a part of the team."
Moye, who played at Penn State, was added after Antonio Brown suffered a mild ankle sprain against the New York Giants.
"I guess they just needed someone to help out on the practice squad and I am fortunate to be here," said Moye. "They said work hard and whatever happens, happens. That is what I plan on doing, working hard and trying to show what I can do."
Moye originally signed with the Miami Dolphins as a rookie free agent in May, but was waived and picked up by the New Orleans Saints. He was released by the Saints during training camp, and is now working toward staying put with the hometown team.
"That is what I plan on trying to do," said the 6-5, 210 pound Moye. "Hopefully they like what I can do and I can go from there. They just said come in and prove what I can do and show I can play."

Zero Dark Thirty doesn't even come out until next week, but Kathryn Bigelow's much-hailed movie about the hunt for Osama bin Laden is already provoking outrage in some quarters for allegedly "glorifying"—OK, sometimes it's "celebrating"—torture. As all too bloody usual, the loudest howls are coming from people who haven't actually seen ZD30, some of whom—yes, Andrew Sullivan, I mean you —really ought to know better. Ginning up controversies about movies without bothering to watch them first is really more Bill Donohue and the Catholic League's sort of thing, and does Sullivan want to be in that company?
Since plenty of other folks apparently do, I hope you won't mind two cents from a lowly movie critic who admires the hell out of Zero Dark Thirty and isn't exactly big on vindicating Dick Cheney's world-view. There are really two separate arguments here, and people shouldn't confuse the two—though they already have. One is about factual accuracy, and worth taking seriously. The other's about Bigelow and screenwriter Mark Boal's attitude toward the very grim stuff they show us, which is an appalling thing to just guess at sight unseen.
Nonetheless, that's what Glenn Greenwald—whose December 10 Guardian piece attacking the movie really got the torture-glorification ball rolling—indefensibly did, in the process managing to smear everyone who'd praised ZD30. "Ultimately, I don't believe that this film is being so well-received despite its glorification of American torture," he wrote. "It's more accurate [wow, really? Did one of us 'fess up over cocktails, Mr. Greenwald?] to say it's so admired because of this." (Emphases in the original.) Take it from me, it's never good when the sight-unseen crowd is driving the conversation.
So, first off, yes: Zero Dark Thirty does depict a circa-2003 torture session as providing the first murky clue in the long chain of them that eventually leads to bin Laden. Plenty of people in a position to know—e.g., ex-CIA director Leon Panetta—have said that just ain't so. On the other hand, Mark Bowden's convincingly reported (to my eyes) book about bin Laden's killing, The Finish, goes along with Bigelow and Boal, which doesn't mean he/they are right and everybody else is wrong. We don't know who the filmmakers did and didn't talk to while they were researching the story. It's possible their sources were the same as Bowden's and they decided to go with that version of events—events which, I'm pretty sure, we won't know the conclusive truth about for a good long while, if ever.
No question, if Bigelow and Boal knew better and scrapped fact for fiction—and you'd better make a good case that it was a conscious choice before you slag them—then they do deserve to be in hot water. But if you ask whether I think that would invalidate the movie, then I'm going to have to annoy you by saying uh-uh. And even, to some extent, defending their reasoning. For starters, depicting torture as an effective intelligence tool isn't the same as endorsing it by a long shot. As Andrew Sullivan should certainly know even if Dick Cheney doesn't, the minute asking whether torture "works" is accepted as the right yardstick for approving of it, the moral argument is lost. It's either abhorrent or it isn't. Back in 1966, The Battle of Algiers opened with an Algerian captive cracking under pressure to reveal the hero's whereabouts, and I don't think anyone would call The Battle of Algiers pro-torture. Instead, it's pro-terrorist—the only universally acknowledged Great Movie that is.
In any case, I can't believe anyone with half a brain could watch ZD30 and think the movie is hailing torture, American-style, as the niftiest thing since Pez dispensers. The torture scenes are squalid, vivid, and brutally protracted, and—not by accident, since they lead off the movie—they make the protagonists morally compromised from the get-go. Not to mention, by extension, us, since we paid their real-life equivalents' salaries. (The horrible sense of complicity when we realize we want the guy they're interrogating to spill the beans and get it over with is one of the more memorable experiences in recent movies.) There can't be much question that the filmmakers mean this to be distressing and tarnishing, not something to cheer for. No matter what Greenwald imagines in the recesses of his "Gee, maybe I should get out more often" gray matter, the point of Zero Dark Thirty isn't to let us exult that we got bin Laden, and never mind being finicky about how. Right down to the great closing shot of Jessica Chastain's troubled, newly purposeless face, the movie is all about the moral, psychological and even spiritual price we paid to do it.
Couldn't Bigelow and Boal have dramatized that without giving torture the credit for getting bin Laden? Maybe so, but to put the question that way is to identify their far from boosterish thematic concerns, not their obliviousness. Nor is that the only irony in play here. Even if torture eventually turned out to be no help in getting him, people were almost certainly tortured in attempts to pin down where he was. Can you imagine the outcry if an anodyne version of ZD30 had just left all of that out—the black sites, the brutalized detainees, the whole "enhanced interrogation" nightmare? Wouldn't a lot of the same people pillorying Bigelow now be accusing her instead of whitewashing the CIA and the Bush-Cheney administration by omitting those dirty deeds? Knowing they were dirty is one truth we should all acknowledge, and Zero Dark Thirty does.

I think you're misreading Glenn Greenwald: "I have not seen this film and thus am obviously not purporting to review it; I am, instead, writing about the reaction to the film: the way in which its fabrications about the benefits of torture seem to be no impediment to its being adored and celebrated."
Regarding "The Battle of Algiers" - You might want to take some time to reflect on that last time that great film crossed paths with American foreign policy...
"Pentagon sources report one hopeful sign that the military is thinking creatively and unconventionally about Iraq. The Pentagon's special operations chiefs have scheduled a showing tomorrow in the Army auditorium of "The Battle of Algiers," a classic film that examines how the French, despite overwhelming military superiority, were defeated by Algerian resistance fighters." -- David Ignatius, Washington Post, August 26, 2003
"The viewer is then treated to a montage of the consequences: ordinary people tortured with electric shock, nearly drowned, hung upside-down -- acts so crude and brutal that in the end they undermined the morale of the French military itself. Is this what the Pentagon wants to convey to its men and women in Iraq or to those who will lead them? That the end justifies the means?" -- Sheila K. Johnson, TomDispatch, September 7, 2003
"While The Battle of Algiers has next to nothing to say about overall French strategy in Algeria, its most obvious military lesson—that torture is an efficient countermeasure to terror—is a dangerous one in this particular instance. Aside from its moral horror, torture may not even elicit accurate information, though the film seems to suggest it is foolproof." -- Charles Paul Freund, Slate, Aug. 27, 2003

Mr. Carson, this is probably going to annoy you. I haven't seen the movie, but I can comment on some logical problems with your post. First, this:
"No question, if Bigelow and Boal knew better and scrapped fact for fiction—and you'd better make a good case that it was a conscious choice before you slag them—then they do deserve to be in hot water."
Bigelow herself characterized the approach to the film as "journalistic," which it clearly isn't, since it's not factually accurate. But even then, regardless of her comment, one would not be required to make a good case for her consciously disregarding fact in favor of fiction. It's simply an inaccurate presentation in a movie which is supposed to be a dramatization of historical events. When there are two equally plausible sides to a story (but frankly, based on the evidence we have about the ineffectiveness of torture, this seems like a false equivalency), you wouldn't let a journalist, or a documentarian, off the hook for reporting only one, especially for artistic/thematic concerns, which you lay out as follows:
"...the movie is all about the moral, psychological and even spiritual price we paid [to get Bin Laden]." But then later you make the case: "Couldn't Bigelow and Boal have dramatized that without giving torture the credit for getting bin Laden? Maybe so, but to put the question that way is to identify their far from boosterish thematic concerns."
So, perhaps they sacrificed fact for theme? Let's discuss those thematic concerns. Based on your description, it strikes me that the depiction of brutal torture as yielding results is intended (in terms of story-telling) to create a conflict between gritty, real-world necessity and moral idealism, employed to the effect of leaving the audience questioning whether that "spiritual price" was potentially worth paying, and thereby inciting the very question ("is torture effective?") that you claim, when it's asked means "the moral argument is lost." So the theme you and the filmmakers hold as the sine qua non, in fact, serves the very purpose you criticize Sullivan for ignoring, and identify as abrogating all genuine moral considerations.
I can understand that, when divorced from the real-world political content and the context of its release, the movie would make for an enjoyable, provocative work. But the fact remains that it purports to be more than that, and should be held accountable not only for inaccurate content, but for the dangerously misleading narratives it peddles.

"In any case, I can't believe anyone with half a brain could watch ZD30 and think the movie is hailing torture, American-style, as the niftiest thing since Pez dispensers. "
Peter Bergen from CNN:
"The one time [president Obama] does appear in "Zero Dark Thirty" is in a clip from a "60 Minutes" interview in which he criticizes the use of "torture." By this point in the film, the audience has already seen that the CIA has employed coercive interrogation techniques on an al Qaeda detainee that produced a key lead in the hunt for bin Laden. In the film, Obama's opposition to torture comes off as wrongheaded and prissy."
Frank Bruni, New York Times:
""The torture sequence immediately follows a bone-chilling, audio-only prologue of the voices of terrified Americans trapped in the towering inferno of the World Trade Center. It's set up as payback. "And by the movie's account, it produces information vital to the pursuit of the world's most wanted man. No waterboarding, no Bin Laden: that's what "Zero Dark Thirty" appears to suggest.""
Owen Glieberman, Entertainment Weekly:
"The suspect finally gives up a name: Abu Ahmed al-Kuwaiti, whom he claims works as a courier for bin Laden. Part of the power of Zero Dark Thirty is that it looks with disturbing clarity at the ''enhanced interrogation techniques'' that were used after 9/11, and it says, in no uncertain terms: They worked."
Mr. Carson, please call these reviewers and inform them that they don't have half a brain.

I wouldn't dream of telling my friend and colleague Owen that he has half a brain. But what are you all doing when you act as if whether torture "works" or not is the right reason to oppose it? I thought we all knew that torture would be reprehensible even if it was a foolproof way of obtaining information. Doesn't it occur to you that a movie can show it "working" to some extent and still treat it as morally repugnant no matter what the results are?

Bigelow and crew are not journalists or historians but narrative story-tellers and not are bound to tell any sort of "truth" at all. In fact, they do a disservice to themselves and their craft if they restrict themselves to verifiable truths, to the "based on a true story" tag-line. The story of bin Laden is a made-up story anyway, much like a myth or fable, with a character named "bin Laden" and a character named "Obama" and so on. She can torque that fable anyway she wants and does not have to answer to anyone about it. Of course, a movie without the torture would probably not sell as well (we crave the things that make us cringe), but that's another discussion. She's telling a fable about a fable.

A pie is a baked dish which is usually made of a pastry dough shell that covers or completely contains a filling of various sweet or savoury ingredients. Pies can be either "filled", where a dish is covered by pastry and the filling is placed on top of that, "top-crust," where the filling is placed in a dish and covered with a pastry/potato mash top before baking, or "two-crust," with the filling completely enclosed in the pastry shell. Pies can be a variety of sizes, ranging from bite-size to ones designed for multiple servings.
So-called "pyes" originally appeared in England as early as the 12th Century, but the word "pie" is not attested in the Oxford English Dictionary until the 14th century.
Meat pies with fillings such as steak, cheese, steak and kidney, minced beef or chicken and mushroom are popular in the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand as take-away snacks. They are also served with chips as an alternative to fish and chips at British chip shops.
These meat pies contain beef and gravy in a shortcrust piecase, often with a flakey top. A peculiarity of Adelaide cuisine is the Pie floater.
Pot pies with a flaky crust and bottom are also a popular American dish, typically with a filling of meat (particularly beef, chicken or turkey), gravy, and mixed vegetables (potatoes, carrots and peas). Frozen pot pies are often sold in individual serving size.
Fruit pies may be served with a scoop of ice cream, a style known in North America as à la mode. Apple pie is a traditional choice, though any pie with sweet fillings may be served à la mode. This combination, and possibly the name as well, is thought to have been popularized in the mid-1890s in the United States.

Topless TuesdayPosted: May 1, 2012 Filed under: Topless Tuesday | Tags: G-Unit, hip-hop, Juelz Santana, Lloyd, Lloyd Banks, Magic Stick, mixtape, Queens, Rap, Tony Yayo, topless, Topless Tuesday, V6 mixtape Leave a comment
Happy Tuesday! You all know what this means…
Lloyd Banks
This past Saturday I was putting a lot of time and effort into building my party playlist for the summer. While I was listing to "Magic Stick" by Lil' Kim ft. 50 Cent, I stumbled upon another member of G-Unit…Mr. Lloyd Banks.
Lloyd and I go way back, all the way back to a time when I was in high school and would cruise in my mom's car to his jam "Warrior." I'll be honest. I thought I was a member of G-Unit. Others didn't think so…that's for sure.
Anywho this post is about Lloyd and not my aspiring rap career…back to you Lloyd.
Christopher Charles Lloyd was born April 30, 1982 (Happy Belated Bday, Lloyd!) in New Carrollton, Maryland but was raised in Queens, New York.
A few honorable mentions about Lloyd:
- Lloyd took the name Banks from his great, great-grandfather
- He dropped out of high school at 16
- Mr. Banks is a mix of Puerto Rican and African-American descent
- Lloyd was a founding member of G-Unit along with his pals 50 Cent and Tony Yayo
In 2004 Lloyd released his debut album "The Hunger for More" featuring the single "On Fire." If you listen closely you can hear a little 50 Cent during the chorus.
Lloyd's debut album hit hard selling 500,500 copies during the first week.
As for his second album, Lloyd had an album all ready to be released. It was supposed to be called "The Big Withdraw" and contained 23 tracks. Interestingly enough, "The Big Withdraw" was never officially released. How could that be?
Well…this one time Lloyd was involved in, for lack of a better term, a 3-way with two ladies and he accidentally left the album behind. As any logical woman in that situation would do…one of them leaked the album to the Interweb. Come on ladies…you would do the same!
Lloyd said of the matter, "It's truth to that rumor. That comes from me doing too much. I was just lost in my ways, fucked two women at one time. It's the little things you don't pay attention to…"
Following that messy incident, Banks began working on his (technically) third album "Rotten Apples." His last studio release was called "H.F.M.: The Hunger for More 2″ and dropped in 2010, featuring the single "Beamer, Benz, or Bently" ft. Juelz Santana.
If you're looking for more Lloyd, keep an eye out for Banks's next mixtape release "V6." It was set to drop yesterday, but Banks posted a tweet that said "Still a few things I have to do with the tape, it's not droppin monday..but soon after!," he wrote. "I just want it to be delivered the right way. Trust me, it's worth the wait! You won't be disappointed."
Lloyd – Stay in the spotlight, you are too pretty to hide in Queens.

Do you know if anyone has done a breakdown of the elements in the kits (NXT versus Edu EV3 versus Commercial EV3)? It looks like there are a few new parts, and fat tires instead of motorcycle-style tires, in the EV3 Edu kit (and Edu add-on).

What is the difference between the educational kit and kit normal? The education has the better processor? More parts?
How can I purchase educational kit?

I think, educational kit would be cheaper and need of proof of educational id to purchase it.

The education kit will have a slight difference in the parts / sensors. The main brick will be exactly the same.
The Edu kit also comes with a rechargable battery, plastic storage bucket and the software will also include the Datalogging part (which the retail doesn't).
Unfortunately it'll also be more expensive than the Retail set :(

Good but not perfect
By Dave
from Oklahoma City, OK
About Me Casual/ Recreational
Comments about Nashbar Ragster II Cycling Sandals:
I'd give these 5 stars for functionality and comfort on the bike, but 3 stars for functionality and comfort off the bike, thus an overall 4. On the bike, they're great. I ride 2-3 laps on a 10 mile city bike path 3-4 times a week and I use them on short trips around town for shopping, etc. I especially appreciate them in hot weather. I don't wear socks with them and they keep my feet cool. The negatives I have are off the bike. When standing with my full weight on them, they are very uncomfortable. Feels like a million little pins sticking in my feet. Not a problem on the bike because you're not putting your full weight on your feet. I can wear them to the store if I'm going to just run in and grab a couple things, but I wouldn't plan on riding somewhere then walking around for a couple hours on these things.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Wide Feet
By De Turkey
from Western Nebraska
See all my reviews
This is my first pair of biking shoes. I wear a size 10 1/2 4E sneaker and was concerned these sandals would be too tight. No problem: they fit just fine (43). Removing the cutout was no problem: a box cutter with a new blade and a small flat bladed screwdriver did both in under two minutes.I can see where the texture on the sole might be irritating if one doesn't wear socks. I wear socks, so no problem.I've worn them on 23 mi rides with the temps in the mid to high 30's: no complaints.I am still getting used to the cleats, however so far I haven't had any problems.After 200+ miles and a dozen rides, I am pleased with the purchase.
Good sandals, but narrow
By Desert roadrunner
from Mojave desert
About Me Avid Cyclist
I bought these sandals about a year ago and I ride with them every day about forty miles or more. They are okay but for one thing. For some reason the right sandal fits too tight in front. That becomes only a problem when I ride for hours and when it is hot. Unfortunately the velcro adjustment does not allow you to widen the sandal in the front. I do not even know why there is a velcro adjustment. My foot hurts so bad after a few hours riding in that sandal that I have to stop and take the sandal off for some time.I installed the cleats and wanted to buy a second pair to use on my hybrid without cleats, but as summer approaches I think I have to look for some sandal which is wider. Unfortunately I have a wide foot and live in a very hot climate and if I would go one size up they would be too big. This is a pity because otherwise I found nothing wrong with them.

Perfect for spin class
By Steve
from Gadsden AL
Absolutely perfect for spin class! My wife and I both have these sandals and have had them for at least eight years. The design has not changed – why change a good thing?We have used these on our road bicycles in the past but primarily use them for spin classes now. Almost all spin bikes in the gym will have dual sided pedals with a standard strap cage on one side and classic SPD on the other. The huge advantage these have for the gym is that you can walk with them without the SPD clip hitting the floor – the cut out allows the interface to be recessed. Incidentally, the thickness that this requires in the sole is the reason for this sandal being heavier than most bike shoes. Not at all important in a spin class and wonderful for being able to walk to the spin room and then to walk around the gym without the "clop clop clop".I loaned my wife's pair to a spin friend who was used to spinning in sneakers and she absolutely loved the feeling. So much more stable and connected.If you are a regular spin participant, as am I, there is no better choice for comfort and flexibility in the gym. The biggest downside is that the sandals used to be somewhere in the 40s and the price has gone up. Remember that you will need to separately order your classic SPD clips.

Uncomfortable Sandals
By Shuman1048
from Bethlehem, PA
If you look closely at the picture, you can see raised oval areas on the sole. These raised areas create pressure points on the bottom of my foot. To make matters worse, Nashbar charged me $8 to return them.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Built for Comfort not for Speed
By ks
from Marin County, CA
Very durable, but heavy compared to most sandals, due to stiff & dense sole material. But this also makes for an effective, if not efficient, riding shoe.

Great Sandal - Pay attention to reviews!
By Picaroon
from Minnesota
I read the reviews about being very difficult to cut out the cleat section of the sole. I found it easy if I went around twice with a razor knife then pried the cut-away section out with a sharp screw driver. It is glued to the metal base so just cutting won't make the section just fall away. You have to pry it away because of the glue. Once I figured that out, the second shoe was very easy to cut and remove the cleat section from the sole. The insole however.. those plastic tips on each oval are a pain. Thank whoever suggested sandpaper. I took 150 grit sandpaper to the entire insole and made it so I could wear them without pain. (I've always had soft skin on the bottom of my feet) These nibs or tips that are left over from the molding process have got to go. But once I sanded the tips away from the insole, I couldn't be happier with the fit, comfort and utility of the sandal.The instructions should be more clear about the cut-away process (the glue) and sanding the insole.
Finaly found Pedals that work!!!
By Pony Boy

Fits my 5E wide foot. Easy to get on and off Pedal. Works!!!
They are very heavy.
By Ralph
from Muncie, IN
I only use them for short rides to the store and such. I had hoped to use them on summer tours, but they are a bit big and I did the cutout and installed the cleats, so I can't return them.
Great Sandals
By Fritz
from Washington, DC
To install SPD cleats, you need both a razor and more importantly needle nose pliers. You need to cut initial lines around the cleat cover, but the real action happens through ripping out the cleat cover.

On Wednesday that training was on display at
"We are not a lifeguard service,"
Basic law enforcement standards training doesn't require potential police to swim, so don't call members of the BCSO's beach precinct basic.
Beach precinct deputies have been specially chosen because of their affinity for the water, Maj. Tommy Ford said. They are former Navy divers, the sons of lifeguards, and ex-lifeguards themselves.
They are all trained in water rescue, so they're certified to save people in swimming pools. But this is surf rescue training.
It's one thing to save someone from drowning in a swimming pool; someone with the right equipment can do that without getting wet, said Carol Wagner of the
The training they do a couple times a week is to familiarize the deputies with their equipment and develop a sort of comfort in dangerous surf conditions. Deputy Odis Lansford called it "a respect short of fear."
The deputies also practice swimming against the current to build their stamina and endurance.
"It's physically exhausting to do the rescue itself," said Nagy, who has performed dozens of rescues. "You've got to get out here and get exhausted on your own to get used to that feeling, knowing that you've got to keep going."
Deputies in the beach precinct know these waters like the back of their hands, said Lt. David Baldwin, and they wear swim trunks underneath their uniforms. They can spot rip currents, in part because they know where rip currents tend to form and because they've been doing what they do for as long as they have.
Even though most or all of the deputies on the beach have performed a surf rescue, only a handful are certified by the USLA. It's not uncommon for a deputy to get into trouble during a rescue. It's happened at least once this year already.
"It's a very dangerous assignment for them," Ford said. "It's very important that we give them the proper training and the proper tools."
The deputies of the beach precinct, as Nagy and others have said, are still police. They still have to patrol the streets, deal with car crashes, medical emergencies, criminals, victims.
They try to deploy a couple deputies as near the sand as possible to respond to water calls, but that means deputies in other areas have to scramble to keep up with their responsibilities,
Deputy Ray Maulbeck recently retired from the BCSO before returning. During his retirement he worked as a lifeguard at the beach's only lifeguard station near the city pier with Daniel Shelley. Now he's a cop again, but he's leading the surf rescue training.
"Basically, we all have to do the work of 20 lifeguards in a — this six miles of beaches, we're all we have out here," Maulbeck said. "So … these guys have to be cops and then all of a sudden respond at a moments notice and be surf rescue, so we try to train in accordance with the USLA lifeguard association techniques."
The spot where they trained Wednesday was chosen because of its tendency to generate the kind of nasty rips that get swimmers in trouble. Those rips come in handy for rescuers, who use the currents to pull them out to distressed swimmers quickly.
Shelley, aka Safety Dan, is a lifeguard, not a cop, but he joined the deputies for training Wednesday. The work of a lifeguard is more about preventing people from entering into dangerous situations than rescuing people. But if there aren't any lifeguards it's best to have trained rescuers, he said.
"This stuff is a start to having safer beaches, you know?" Shelley said.

DGIdb version 1.66 has been released - this release contains clinical trial data from MyCancerGenome.
You can download this release on Github.
This release adds options to filter loss-of-heterozygosity and gain-of-reference allele calls from SomaticSniper output. Loss-of-heterozygosity calls are defined as calls where the tumor genotype is fully a subset of the normal genotype. Gain-of-heterozygosity calls are defined as those where the reference allele is not present in the normal genotype call, but is present in the tumor. For example the following calls would both be suppressed,
You can download this release on Github.
This release is a minor fix to v1.2 and addresses a couple of VEP annotation (native output) format bugs. A secondary output file (.excluded) now lists variants excluded from the main output file due to lack of VEP annotation. Also, sites with 2+ alternate alleles will be reported in multiple lines (one per alternate allele) when VEP native output format is provided.
You can download this release on Github.
We fixed a bug related to segmentation scoring, added broader VEP output format compatibility, and enabled preliminary recessive scoring functionality for the "score" subcommand.
If you use MendelScan to aid your research, please cite the publication: Koboldt DC, Larson DE, Sullivan LS, Bowne SJ, Steinberg KM, et al. Exome-based mapping and variant prioritization for inherited Mendelian disorders. Am J Hum Genet. doi:10.1016/j.ajhg.2014.01.016
You can download this release on Github.
This is the initial release of MendelScan, a software package for analyzing variants identified by family-based sequencing of rare genetic diseases. There are three main functions included with this release:
java -jar MendelScan.jar score – prioritize variants in a VCF based upon segregation, annotation, population frequency, and gene expression
java -jar MendelScan.jar rhro – apply rare heterozygote rule out to map dominant disease genes
java -jar MendelScan.jar sibd – apply shared IBD analysis to map disease genes
A manuscript describing this tool has been submitted; in the interim, please cite MendelScan by noting the version number and citing its home URL: http://gmt.genome.wustl.edu/mendelscan.
You can download this release on Github.
In the era of high throughput genomics, investigators are frequently presented with lists of mutated or otherwise altered genes implicated in disease. Numerous resources exist to help form hypotheses about how such genomic events might be targeted therapeutically or prioritized for drug development. However, utilizing these resources typically requires tedious manual review of literature and knowledge bases. No informatics tools currently exist which mine these resources and provide a simple interface for searching lists of genes against the existing compendia of both known or predicted drug-gene interactions and potentially druggable genes. The Drug-Gene Interaction database (DGIdb) addresses this challenge. Drug-gene interactions have been mined from existing databases and literature to populate DGIdb. Similarly, genes have been categorized as potentially druggable according to membership in selected pathways, molecular functions and gene families. Currently, DGIdb contains 2,611 genes and 6,307 drugs involved in 14,144 drug-gene interactions, and 6,761 genes that belong to one or more of 39 potentially druggable gene categories. Users can enter a gene or list of genes to retrieve all known or potentially druggable genes in that list. Results can be filtered by source, interaction type, or treatment type and are sorted by source trust level. Our goal was to create a user-friendly search tool and comprehensive database of genes that have the potential to be druggable with a particular focus on cancer. DGIdb can be accessed programmatically or through a web-based interface at dgidb.org.
An updated version of Pindel is available for download.
Pindel is a program that detects short indels and complex structural variants (large deletions, inversions, tandem duplications, mobile element insertions and translocations) from next-generation sequence data using pattern growth.
It takes either extracted reads (using sam2pindel or bam2pindel.pl) or multiple bam files as input. A pindel2vcf converter is provided to report variant calls in VCF format.
The source code for Pindel is available on GitHub, and pre-built packages for Ubuntu 10.04 systems are available from The Genome Institute. For installation instructions, see the Pindel project page.
Source code and Ubuntu 10.04 (64-bit) packages of iBWA Alpha v0.5 are now available for testing. iBWA is a fork of Heng Li's BWA aligner with support for iteratively adding alternate haplotypes, reference patches, and variant hypotheses. This enables you to leverage existing tools and pipelines in the diverse BWA ecosystem while also creating new analysis opportunities.
For additional information about BWA please see Heng Li's BWA @ SourceForge or BWA's manual page.
MuSiC v0.4 is now available for download. This release adds new visualization tools, performance improvements, support for TCGA MAF v2.3, and coverage files in UCSC WIG format when BAMs are impractical. Here is a complete changelog:
RefCov v0.3 provides critical fixes and several new features. Fixes include restoring several modules that were absent in the previous release. New features include: 1) cluster-coverage for detecting contiguous clusters of sequence reads across a reference, 2) the ability to evaluate coverage of entire chromosomes using the BAM file header as the region-of-interest, ex. --roi-file-path=$BAM --roi-file-format=bam, 3) normalization of coverage using a defined Perl-compatible equation, 4) relative coverage based on a defined list of size bins, and 5) optional output of the chromosome start and end as BED-style columns.
The latest release of SomaticSniper, The Genome Institute's somatic SNV calling workhorse, adds an alternative statistical model that better accounts for the rarity of somatic events by jointly considering the tumor and normal genotypes. This version also adds native support for the VCF and BED formats as output. The VCF output contains information useful for downstream filtering, e. g., fraction of reads on the forward and reverse strands, average read mapping quality, and average base quality for reads/bases supporting the variant allele and those supporting the reference allele.
You can download this release on Github.
MuSiC (Mutational Significance in Cancer) 0.3 is now available for download featuring numerous fixes and several new features. MuSiC performs a variety of statistical analyses on the somatic (and germline) alterations discovered in any cancer cohort. Improvements in this version include an enhanced significantly mutated gene test which introduces the ability to 1) take into account sample-specific mutation rates and 2) identify significantly mutated non-genic regions of the genome. The clinical correlation module now features a generalized linear model option allowing for the elimination of covariate influences on mutation-phenotype relationships. Support for MAF 2.2 and for Pfam annotation of GRCh37 (hg19) are now standard. Additionally, several MuSiC components have been optimized and parallelized for faster execution.
The initial release of TIGRA-SV is available for download. TIGRA-SV is a program that conducts targeted local assembly of structural variants (SV) using the iterative graph routing assembly (TIGRA) algorithm (L. Chen, unpublished). It takes input as a list of putative SV calls and a set of bam files that contain reads mapped to a reference genome. For each SV call, it assembles the set of reads that were mapped or partially mapped to the region of interest (ROI) in the corresponding bam files. TIGRA-SV is quite effective at improving the SV prediction accuracy in short reads analysis and can produce accurate breakpoint sequences.
The purpose of this program is to identify single nucleotide positions that are different between tumor and normal (or, in theory, any two bam files). It takes a tumor bam and a normal bam and compares the two to determine the differences. It outputs a file in a format very similar to Samtools consensus format. It uses the genotype likelihood model of MAQ (as implemented in Samtools) and then calculates the probability that the tumor and normal genotypes are different. This probability is reported as a somatic score. The somatic score is the Phred-scaled probability (between 0 to 255) that the Tumor and Normal genotypes are not different where 0 means there is no probability that the genotypes are different and 255 means there is a probability of 1 – 10(255/-10) that the genotypes are different between tumor and normal. This is consistent with how the SAM format reports such probabilities.
You can download this release on Github.
The latest release of BreakDancer, the Genome Institute's structural variation (SV) detector, is now available for download.
The new release has small bug fixes to ensure it runs reliably on the latest Ubuntu distribution. It is now available as a deb package, installable readily onto Ubuntu Linux or other Debian-based systems.
Joinx is a lightweight tool for performing set operations (e.g., intersection, difference, …) on genomic data contained in .bed files. It also provides some limited analysis functions (concordance reports). An important assumption that joinx makes is that the input data is always sorted. This allows it to compute its results in an efficient manner.
The decreasing cost of sequencing has moved the focus of cancer genomics beyond single genome studies to the analysis of tens or hundreds of patients diagnosed with similar cancers. Besides the routine discovery and validation of SNVs, indels, and SVs in individual genomes, it is now paramount to systematically analyze the function and recurrence of mutations across a cohort, and to describe how they interact with one other and with the associated clinical data. To this end we have developed the Mutational Significance In Cancer package (MuSiC). It consists of a suite of downstream analysis tools designed to (1) apply statistical methods to identify significantly mutated genes, (2) highlight significantly altered pathways, (3) investigate the proximity of amino acid mutations in the same gene, (4) search for gene-based or site-based correlations to mutations and relationships between mutations themselves, (5) correlate mutations to clinical features, and (6) cross-reference findings with relevant databases such as Pfam, COSMIC, and OMIM.

PARMINGOALE. LONG BLAND NEW YORK cr V o l . 1 No. 2 STATE UMfVaSnY AGMCUtTURAL AND TECHNICAL INSTITUTE AT FAKMINGDALE JANUARY 28, 1963 Tumosr INSePT, In connection with Governor, Rockefeller's program to revamp the New York State educational system, tuition will be charged in all State schools beginning next September. The $400 fee for residents and $600 fee for nonresidents will bring in an expected extra revenue of twenty-<i two million dollars. To ease the added financial load on students it is expected that loan and schol-arship programs will be liberal-ized. In the case of hardship cases where students come from the low income bracket homes the tuition will be waived. S.C. ON THE AIR Tonight at 7:00 p.m. the school radio station, W.A.T.I., will broad-cast live the Student Council meeting. Dormitory students will hear the entire Student Council meeting in the comfort of their rooms merely by turning their radio dials to 640 kc. This will be the first live broadcast of any student government meeting. In the future W.A.T.I. will broadcast live all the Student Council meetings which they feel will be of Interest to the student body. W.A.T.I. will publicize in advance, the braodcasting of such meetings. Starting in February, W.A.T.I. HMLTH mm oo ENGINEERING PREP PROGRAM A two-year Engineering Science program, leading to an Associate in Applied Science degree, will be instituted at SUATI during Oc-tober of 1963. This program will be designed to prepare students for possible transfer, as third year students, to colleges and universities of engineering. Specialization in any of several fields of Engineering, Applied Mathematics, Engineer-ing Science, or Applied Physics may then follow. While the primary purpose of the Engineering Science curricu-lum is to provide the first two years of a conventional engineer-ing program, it will also provide a suitable background for em-ployment for those students not electing to continue with pro-fessional study. A great deal of preparation for this new course has already been made. Visits to Hofstra College, Brooklyn JPolytechnical Institute and Rensselaer Polytechnic In-stitute have been made in order to study their schools of engin-eering. Hofstra and Brooklyn Poly havg given copies of their labora-tory manuals and book lists to SUATI personnel, to use as a bas-is for its own courses. Associate Professor Richard I. Game, who has been appointed as chairman of the new department, has been invited back to R.P.I, for further studies of their school of engineering. Arrangements have also been made to confer with officials of Pratt Institute, New York University, and Adel-phi University. Not only the above mentioned schools, but many others as well, have shown a great Interest in this new program and will wel-come as transfer students, any graduates. Once the Engineering Science curriculum begins here at SUATI, continuous observation of the en-gineering programs of other schools will be maintained so that the curriculum at SUATI wUl be homogeneous with theirs. / This program appeals especial-ly to students who cannot afford the cost of attending a four year college where high tuition rates are prevalent; instead the student attends SUATI where the cost for two years of education is rom-paratlvely lower due to smaJ ler tu-ition requirements to N. Y. State residents. will braodcast live every home basketball game and wrestling match. Since W.S.T.I. is on the air Sunday through Thursday, any games or matches scheduled for Friday or Saturday will not be broadcasted I NEW FORMAT The staff of W.A.T.I. is pro-posing a new format which will include more Rock'n Roll music. However, this format is still in the debating stage. W.A.T.I. would appreciate the reaction of the dorm students to this proposal. Stu-dents can voice their opinions by ICC REPORT On January 11, the Institute Council of Clubs held its last meeting of the first semester in Memorial Hall Lounge at eleven o'clock. At that meeting It was the club's unfortunate task to ac-cept the resignation of its Presi-dent, Mr. Allen Mears. Accord-ing to the Constitution of I.C.C. the Vice President, Mr. Rabin, assumed the Presidency. His first duty as President was to read Mr. ' Mears' resignation to the club. Mr. Mears' stated; "Havingbeen placed on Disciplinary Probation for deeds outside the realm of student activities, I am forced to resign my position as President. I am sure that my successors will satisfy all your needs. We have accomplished what others can only dream about. You have shown what a unified and knowledgeable student body can do. You have fulfilled the dreams, desires, and wishes of the entire student body by giving your sup-port to the Idea of more "Student" in Student Activities. For this I coRHnend you con-gratulate you, but I wish to point out that the year Is but half over. The best of luck to you In your future endeavors." A standing ovation followed the reading of Mr. Mear's letter in appreciation of his leadership and hard work. A motion was mady by Mr. Rabla, that Mr. Mears be made an hoAorary membr of I. C. C. In view of his experience and an expectation of his much need-ed direction In the training of new officers for 1963-1964. Mr. Rabin followed with another motion which, if passed, would allow for election of new officers three weeks earlier than last year. These three weeks would provide a training period for new officers. At this meeting a third motion was made by Mr. G. J, Gerard, that all clubs represented In I.C.C. should also have a representative to the RAMBLER to facilitate ade-quate news coverage of all club activities. This motion was tabled for further consideration. Among the committee reports was that of B. B. C. (Bulletin Board Committee) which stated "alterations are being made on the wooden bulletin boards to al-low for larger posters. The procedures for printing and distributing posters were also clarified in the BBC report. calling the raido station at CH 9- 9872, or by dropping a note in the mail slot in the door of the radio station, which is in Knapp Hall. Also, notes to W.A.T.I. can be given to postman in tiie Student Union Building, addressed to W.A.- T.I., Box 640. It is also pro-posed that W.A.T.I. will broad-cast live news from a local com-mercial radio station. NEW VICE-PRES George J. Gerard was elected vice-president at the Decem-ber 17th meeting of theRadioClub. He replaces Jim DiGiavonhi who moved Into the presidency after the resignation of Joe D'Agostino. George is an E. T. freshman who is active in the Amateur Radio Station which is part of the Radio Club. He is also active in the formation of Young Americans for Freedom and is currently Manag-ing Editor of the RAMBLER. G . J . GERARD New Radio Club Vice President IDC MEETING At the IDC meeting of January 9th, three topics of interest to the entire student body were dis-cussed and measures set up for the fulfillment of these ideas. The first and most likely to succeed is the construction of a skating rink in the area of the tennis courts. The main and most stub-born obsucle in IDC's way is the procurment of polyethelene, a durable synthetic material which would make the construction and maintenance of the rink a definite possibility. The second topic is arrange-ment of quarters for a tailor to come in one day a week to mend and possibly alter clothing. IDC is checking the student reaction to this proposal at this monent. Initially it will probably prove to be expensive, but it Is felt that as with any good idea, once the volume of use is Increased the rates will drqp. The third idea has been discuss-ed in the past and has met with highly favorable student reaction. This^ idea is to set up a barber shop where barbers could come on campus one or two days a week and give professional haircuts at low prices. Although these projects are still In the planning stage, one thing is certain: if any of them are put in operation they will be open to all students and faculty. At the January 7th meeting of Student Council, Mr. Henry Kogok, President of Student Council in-troduced a motion to the floor which contained the following proposals: A five dollar fee be assessed to each incoming student starting in September of this year and to con-tinue for the following four years; the monies received to be used as payment on a $40,000 loan from Faculty-Student Association. A $40,000 loan from Faculty-Student Association will be arranged so as to provide the funds necessary to build a Health Caiter building on campus. An additional five dollars be assesed each individual student starting in September 1963 and running concurrently for the next four years. These funds to provide more medical aid on campus, by hiring an additional nurse, obtain-ing more medical equipment and the balance used to maintain, equip and stock the $40,000 Health Cen-ter. Immediately there was an "Obj-ection to the Consideration" rais-ed on the motion, however, due to a breakdown in parliamentary pre-cedure at this time, the point was not cleared up and the floor opened for discussion, with Mr. Kogok granting the floor to Mrs. Siecin-ski, the present school nurse, who gave a well-prepared speech on why such a building and the additional monies were necessary. Mrs. Siecinski mentioned a number of factors which supported this proposal. Among them were: Even though in the past six years, the student population has o^y in-creased appoxlmately by 100-200 students, their visits to the present health center have increased from two to five thousand visits per school year. TTie number of students which seek service at the present health center on a daily basis average betweoi 40 and 50, presenting an overcrowded condition, as only one student can be cared for at one time. There Is presently only one room. In which two cots are present at which 111 students can rest and recuperate Only students of the same sex however, may use this facility at any given time. In general, Mrs. Siecinski commented that if the RIFLE CLUB PRES. RESIGNS At the 16 January meeting otthe Rifle Club President Ray Tompkins resigned due to pressing duties in other campus activities. He stated that because his new job as Editor of the RAMBLER took considerable amount of time, he was forced to give up the Presidency of the Rifle Club. In his resignation he thanked the people who had helped him as President and especially Mr. Par-sons who had performed most of the work on the new range. Mr. Tomp-kins also stated that Mr. Tuck, the Vice-President Is well qualified to take over as the new President. A vote of confidence was given to Mr. Tuck to be the new President until the new elections. A commit-tee was formed at the meeting, to Improve the present range facil-ities and make arrangements for a modern range in the new Student Union Building to be built in 1965. Mr. Tompkins was appointed the chairman of the new committee. present medical services are not expanded upon, then the quality' and quantity of the service will have to be diminished. Concluding her talk, Mrs. Siec-inski then queried the floor for any questions. Several were raised, one which was quite note worthy. That being "With all this money being alloted will th^e be a nurse on 14-hr, duty?" In answer to this it was stat^ that it is more necessary to first provide a building where such a nurse could be quartered and also to firstly provide for more care during theose hours when the greater influx of patients are present. Following this question and answer period, short discussion ensued after which the motion was brought to a vote, however before the actual vote was taken, the original objection to the consider-ation was again brought up, defeated and cast aside. The final vote on the motion was passed in the affirmative- Also at the Jan 7th n»eetlng the position of ICC as compared to the previous week was reversed. The status of the Institued Coun-cil of Clubs is that of an indi-vidual body outside of the direct control of Student Council. During Barabara Michal's ICC "committee" report, Mr. Cody objected that ICC was not a com-mittee of Students Council and could not give a report. Mr. Cody's contention was that the vote of the 10 Dec S.C. meeting to make ICC a standing committee of Student Council was illegal and thus voided subsequent constitutional changes. As was the case in past similar actions at Student Council, much discussion erupted on the floor,, and words flew as freely as to the previous "debates" regarding this matter. As was the case in past similar actions at Student Council, much discussion empted on the floor, and words flew as freely as in the previous "debates" regarding this matter. A five-minute recess was called Airing which the President, Mr. Kogok conferred with the members of his Excutive Board. A ruling then came forth from the chair, stating that a new vote would be inltiatedto finalize action regardii^ ICC. This vote would either endorse previous action taken or make it void. The results showed that all pre-vious action taken to place ICC under direct subordination to S.C. was void and the new status of ICC shall be as it was at the be-ginning of the new year. At the end of the ICC report, A1 Mears announced that due to being place on Disciplinary Pro- •bation for actions outside the realm of student activities, he was forced to resign his position as President of the Institute Council of Clubs. S. C. President Henry Kogok called for a standing ovation for the great deal of work which Mr. Mears has put into the ICC and for the results which he has received. Toward the end of the Jan. 7th meeting, Mr. Cody introduced a motion to also rescind all previ-ous action regaiding IDC. This matter was postponed to the next meeting, which took place unex-

Most of these plant species are found either partially or fully submersed in their natural habitat. Although there are a handful of obligate aquatic plants that must be grown in water (Cabomba sp., for example), most grow and thrive fully emersed if the soil is kept moist.
As a very important note, the taxonomy of most plant genera is not final. Scientific names and classifications have changed often in the past years, creating confusion for most aquarists. Most of the old names are still in use today on some web sites.

Comments about 35 Degree 1-1/2 in. Metal Connector Framing Nailer (Short Magazine):
This is my first metal connector air nailer and now I'm kicking myself for not getting one earlier. This thing is amazingly light and maneuverable, so using either hand, whether the gun is upright, upside down or sideways is easy. Installation of standard joist hangers is far faster and easier than hand nailing and you have a hand free to hold the hanger in position while nailing. Combine with a Bostitch poly light weight (yellow) air hose and increase production ten fold.

This is the only way to install TECO nails. It fits easily between joists. I cant recommend it enough. I am refitting an older house with Simpson ties for high winds and this nailer fits easily in areas where swinging a hammer would be difficult.

At a school board meeting earlier this month, board members and the public raised concerns about whether it would be wise to wait for a detailed report before renewing the contract with private food service company Chartwells.
However, besides a guaranteed $750,000 per year — which is in the contract with Chartwells — school officials point to an audit conducted by the
"We look at these other agencies that are coming in and are looking at our food service program," said Sandra Davis, the school district's liaison to Chartwells and deputy superintendent. "We have to rely on their expertise. They have the evidence, examine it, interview personnel, evaluate the menus — they observe."
A more detailed report from Chartwells is expected to arrive during the summer, she said.
Repeated calls to Chartwells' local office over the past week were not returned. Julio Narvaez, resident district manager at Chartwells, said in an email Friday he was not available to respond to questions from The News Herald.
The contract between Chartwells and the district stipulates that $750,000 will be paid to the district regardless of performance.
According to the Conditional Guaranteed Return section of the contract, if federal reimbursements do not make up $750,000, the company will pay the district the difference. The guarantee is contingent upon a list of conditions being met, which include, but are not limited to enrollment, disruption of food service caused by emergency situations and the numbers of days meals are served.
The return is based on the district's revenue minus the food service's operating costs and all surplus left over after expenses are deducated, the contract states.
When asked if she believed the district will net more than $750,000,
"Now certainly, if these reports did not come back looking as good as they did, then we probably would have looked" more closely at whether to renew or not.
"We felt like that was a good recommendation,"
According to a March FDA report, which reviewed food service compliance and performance based on federal guidelines, the food program met five of the eight evaluated areas.
Minor conflicts about what constitutes a complete meal were documented, but after the review was completed, the district received an additional 6 cents per meal reimbursement for meeting the guidelines.
And while the saltless, not-fried food is federally mandated, "when we looked at our numbers here, we only had a 1.7 percent (drop) in meal counts,"
District officials are convinced the drop in meals served is related to the heart-healthy, bland guidelines served up by the federal government.
"Is everyone eating the food? No,"

|Wholly Wholesome… Wholliciously Wonderful!
The seeds for Wholly Wholesome were planted in 1972 in Morristown, New Jersey when Bob Wintz began a company to bring baked goods to consumers. As the years passed and the company prospered, the Wintz family expanded their business and founded the Run-A-Ton Group, which focuses on niche and point-of-difference baked foods for the Natural Food and supermarket industry.
Wholly Wholesome™ was born in 1996, founded by Bob's son, Doon Wintz. It is a company dedicated to both quality and taste for the ingredient conscious consumer, with products "that taste as good or better than any other baked product in both the natural foods and conventional market". As part of the Run-A-Ton Group, Doon Wintz along with his corporate team, combine their passion for natural foods and great baked goods with a commitment to wholesome, yet delicious, baked foods and ready to bake products.
KosherEye tested Wholly Wholesome™ pie shells by making both cheese quiche and fresh fruit pies. The shells baked beautifully and taste quite good. But, the best news is that the shells are certified OU parve, have no preservatives, no artificial flavors, no hydrogenated or trans fats, and no bleached flour. We also tasted the packaged blueberry and apple pies. These ready-to-bake pies are stocked in the freezer section of the supermarket. We followed instructions on the boxes, which call for approximately one hour of baking, and in both cases with minimal effort we had created delicious desserts. (OK, yes, we topped ours with homemade vanilla ice cream!)

I propose that the members of this forum contribute some appropriate facts about Granny Weatherwax.
I'll start the ball rolling with:
"You don't look at Granny Weatherwax, she allows light to reflect in your general direction..."
"Death once had a near-Granny Weatherwax experience"
