Scientists have identified a gene variant that seems to strongly raise the risk for Alzheimer's disease, giving a fresh target for research into treatments for the mind-robbing disorder.
The problem gene is not common — less than 1 percent of people are thought to have it — but it roughly triples the chances of developing Alzheimer's compared with people with the normal version of the gene. It also seems to harm memory and thinking in older people without dementia.
The main reason scientists are excited by the discovery is that what this gene does, and how, might reveal what causes Alzheimer's and ways to prevent it. The gene helps the immune system control inflammation in the brain and clear junk such as the sticky deposits that are the hallmark of the disease. Mutations in the gene might impair these tasks, so treatments to restore the gene's function and quell inflammation might help.
"It points us to potential therapeutics in a more precise way than we've seen in the past," said Dr. William Thies, chief medical and scientific officer of the Alzheimer's Association, which had no role in the research.
It is described in a study by an international group published online Wednesday by the New England Journal of Medicine.
About 35 million people worldwide have dementia, and Alzheimer's is the most common type. In the U.S., about 5 million have Alzheimer's. Medicines such as Aricept and Namenda temporarily ease symptoms. There is no known cure.
Until now, only one gene — ApoE — has been found to have a big impact on Alzheimer's risk. About 17 percent of the population has at least one copy of the problem version of this gene but nearly half of all people with Alzheimer's do. Other genes that have been tied to the disease raise risk only a little, or cause the less common type of Alzheimer's that develops earlier in life, before age 60.
The new gene, TREM2, already has been tied to a couple of other forms of dementia. Researchers led by deCODE Genetics of Iceland homed in on a version of it they identified through mapping the entire genetic code of more than 2,200 Icelanders.
Further tests on 3,550 Alzheimer's patients and more than 110,000 people without dementia in several countries, including the United States, found that the gene variant was more common in Alzheimer's patients.

Jordan Zimmermann might be the best Number 3 starter in baseball. You can argue whether Strasburg or Gonzalez is Number 1, but everyone will agree that those two are your top two. But then you get Jordan Zimmermann on the third day and that is not a picnic by any stretch of the imagination. Gonzalez had a WHIP of 1.129 and Strasburg finished 2012 with a 1.155. Right behind them was Zimmermann at 1.170 and he was second on the team in strikeout to walk ratio. Zimmermann is a terrific combination of deception, heat and strike throwing ability. What is so impressive about Jordan Zimmermann is that even though he is a young pitcher, he throws strikes and he throws them often. How many pitchers throw the slider for a higher strike percentage than their fastball? Zimmermann threw his slider for a strike 71% of the time and his fastball 68.5 percent of the time. That combination allowed him to lead off a batter with either pitch for a strike. His first pitch strike rate of 69.2% w...

COLLEGE PLACE -- A former student now a longtime member of the Walla Walla University faculty, will give the school's 2009 Distinguished Faculty Lecture this weekend.
Tom Thompson, a professor of mathematics, will discuss "Shape and Dimension" Sunday at 7 p.m. at the Melvin K. West Fine Arts Center Auditorium on the Walla Walla University campus. The lecture is free and open to the public.
Thompson's lecture will draw on his interest in mathematical history, observing how familiar geometric shapes like circles, spheres and cubes have played important roles throughout written history.
Thompson began his stint at then-Walla Walla College as a chemistry major, who was finishing his last year of course work in 1968 when he decided to add a few math classes. The move was done in part for fun, in part to add a second degree program to his studies.
He left College Place to pursue medical school, "but it didn't grab me," Thompson said in a news release. Instead, Thompson continued to chase mathematics, earning a master's degree in the subject from University of Washington in 1971.
Among his job offers after graduating was a teaching position at Walla Walla University following a sudden vacancy at the school.
Nearly 40 years later, Thompson continues to teach an array of mathematics courses, including calculus, advanced calculus, and abstract algebra. His career was only briefly interrupted to complete a doctoral program at the University of California, Davis.
Thompson described landing his teaching gig as "providential."
"I knew this job was made for me," he said. "I'm starting my 39th year and I feel that I'm the luckiest person in the world. I'm doing precisely what I enjoy. I love working with the students. When I'm teaching them, I see the furrowed brows and then as I explain the concept to them, I see their faces relax and break into a smile as they begin to understand."
The Distinguished Faculty Lecturer honor was awarded to Thompson by fellow faculty members last year. Lecturers are typically chosen for their demonstrated excellence in teaching and scholarship, and involvement in governance, church and community service.

Take charge of Photoshop and make better, more targeted image adjustments with selections—including hard-to-select objects like hair, fuzzy edges, and color ranges. Rich Harrington reveals the importance of precise selections, whether you're masking, changing color and tone, or even storing transparency, and shows you how to make them with the tools in Adobe Photoshop CC. Dive into the Select menu commands and the Marquee, Lasso, and Magic Wand tools, and then learn how to refine your selections with Expand and Contract, Smooth and Feather, Quick Mask, and other controls. Photoshop power users will also enjoy advanced techniques involving the Color Range command and alpha channel selections.
This course was created and produced by Rich Harrington. We're honored to host this content in our library.
Hi. My name's Rich Harrington, and welcome to this course, where we're going to be exploring selections. The whole idea with selections is that they let you take control of Photoshop. Ideally, what's going to happen is you're going to choose the pixels that you want to manipulate. Perhaps it's to make an isolated adjustment in color, or to store transparency. There are multiple selection tools that rate from very easy ones to use, like marquees to magic wands, to more complex dedicated commands.
Like the select color range command, or the refine edge command. There's lots of great tools and techniques that you could use to take your Photoshop skills to the next level. In this course, I'm going to focus on how to make very targeted adjustments, and deal with things like fine transparent edges, as well as hair, or very organic surfaces. There's a lot of great techniques I'm going to share with you, and it really is the difference from a good image to a great image. After all, learning to take precise control over pixels is what's necessary to do the finest, highest quality adjustments.
So, with that in mind, we've got a lot to explore. And let's jump in.
There are currently no FAQs about Practical Photoshop Selections.

The Oklahoman's state college football power poll for Week 10:
1. Southwestern (5-4): Back to No. 1 after a week's absence. Yeah, yeah, I know. The Bulldogs lost to East Central a week ago ...
2. East Central (4-4): ... but the Tigers following up with a loss to a not-so-good Arkansas Tech club, at home, is unforgivable. Next: Southwestern at Tarleton State, Texas (6-2), 2 p.m.; East Central at Harding, Ark. (6-2), 2 p.m.
3. Langston (4-4): Freshman quarterback Mark Wright Jr. saves the day. A touchdown pass and touchdown run, both in the fourth quarter, as the Lions come back to win at Panhandle State. Langston goes into its big Central States Football League game on Saturday at Bacone on a four-game win streak. Make it five, and the Lions are in the driver's seat for the league championship and a possible NAIA playoff berth. Next: at Bacone (7-2), 2 p.m.
4. Bacone (7-2): A tighter-than-expected win over Oklahoma Baptist. At home, too. Who knows? Either the Warriors are not as good as we thought, or maybe they were looking past OBU to this week's game against Langston. Next: vs. Langston (4-4), 2 p.m.
5. Central Oklahoma: (1-7): Victory cigars all around. Next: at Southwest Baptist, Mo. (1-8), 1 p.m.
6. Southeastern (2-7): Despite a down season team-wise, redshirt freshman running back Devlon Wortham needs 95 yards over Southeastern's final two games to reach 1,000 for the season. Next: at Arkansas Tech (4-5), 2 p.m.
7. Panhandle State (3-7): Aggies coach Russell Gaskamp said this group is better than its record indicates, especially when everyone is healthy. But injuries and two fourth-quarter turnovers doomed Panhandle State on Saturday against Langston, which escaped Goodwell with a one-point victory. Next: at Oklahoma Baptist (2-7), 2 p.m.

TAVERAS SITS: Center fielder Willy Taveras gets the night off tonight. Taveras entered today having gone 0-for-13 since getting one hit to snap an 0-for-32 streak.
Lefty-hitting Chris Dickerson fills in tonight against Sox righty Jose Contreras. But, Baker indicated that the righty-hitting Taveras will play Saturday and Sunday against two lefty Chicago pitchers, Clayton Richard and Mark Buehrle.
In his pre-game media session, Baker spoke with his usual calm candor but again expressed dismay at having to explain his lineups. Baker is aware of the public clamor to bench cold-hitting players.
First they want (Laynce) Nix to play instead of Dickerson, Baker said. ... Now they want Dickerson instead of Taveras. Its a long season, and youve got to go with a guys track record as well as what hes doing now too. Quite honestly, Im getting a little tired of having to testify to who I play and why, and how long and when.
Taveras's track record says he's a bad player.

Fun with homeopaths and meta-analyses of homeopathy trials
Well, actually it both amuses me and appalls me. The amusement comes from just how utterly ridiculous the concepts behind homeopathy are. Think about it. It is nothing but pure magical thinking. Indeed, at the very core of homeopathy is a concept that can only be considered to be magic. In homeopathy, the main principles are that "like heals like" and that dilution increases potency. Thus, in homeopathy, to cure an illness, you pick something that causes symptoms similar to those of that illness and then dilute it from 20C to 30C, where each "C" represents a 1:100 dilution. Given that such levels of dilution exceed Avagaddro's number by many orders of magnitude, even if any sort of active medicine was used, there is no active ingredient left after a series of homeopathic dilutions. Indeed, this was known as far back as the mid-1800's. Of course, this doesn't stop homeopaths, who argue that water somehow retains the "essence" of whatever homeopathic remedy it has been in contact with, and that's how homeopathy "works." Add to that the mystical need to "succuss" (vigorously shake) the homeopathic remedy at each dilution (I've been told by homeopaths, with all seriousness, that if each dilution isn't properly succussed then the homeopathic remedy will not attain its potency), and it's magic all the way down, just as creationism has been described as "turtles all the way down." Even more amusing are the contortions of science and logic that are used by otherwise intelligent people to make arguments for homeopathy. For example, just read some of Lionel Milgrom's inappropriate invocations of quantum theory at the macroscopic level for some of the most amazing woo you've ever seen, or Rustum Roy's claims for the "memory of water." Indeed, if you want to find out just how scientifically bankrupt everything about homepathy is, my co-blogger Dr. Kimball Atwood started his tenure on Science-Based Medicine with a five part series on homeopathy.
At the same time, homeopathy appalls me. There are many reasons for this, not the least of which is how anyone claiming to have a rational or scientific viewpoint can fall so far as to twist science brutally to justify magic. Worse, homepaths and physicians sucked into belief into the sorcery that his homeopathy are driven by their belief to carry out unethical clinical trials in Third World countries, even on children. Meanwhile, time, resources, and precious cash are wasted chasing after pixie dust by our own government through the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM). So while I laugh at the antics of homeopaths going on and on about the "memory of water" or quantum gyroscopic models" in order to justify homeopathy as anything more than an elaborate placebo, I'm crying a little inside as I watch.
The Lancet, meta-analysis, and homeopathy
If there's one thing that homepaths hate–I mean really, really, really hate–it's a meta-analysis of high quality homeopathy trials published by Professor Matthias Egger in the Department of Social and Preventative Medicine at the University of Berne in Switzerland, entitled Are the clinical effects of homoeopathy placebo effects? Comparative study of placebo-controlled trials of homoeopathy and allopathy.

American Baby's Baby Booty: (Sweet)Peace in the New Year!
I may be a little obsessed with places to sit a baby. Last week I sang the praises of the Baby Bjorn Babysitter; this week, I'm on to the Graco SweetPeace. Let me unleash my baby-gear geekdom for a minute! Graco invented the baby swing way-back-when; it was inspired by a mom who soothed her baby while sitting on a glider swing in her backyard. (You can read the story here, along with a fact I love: That the son of the swing inventor dreamed up the Pack 'n Play!) Baby swings have been tweaked over the years and made better; now the popular Fisher-Price cradle swings win one of our readers'-choice awards, the American Baby Bests, every year.
So what is the SweetPeace? It's a fairly advanced soothing device for that first difficult half-year. Unlike any regular baby swing, the seat is superadjustable: You can recline it, or move it to face a different direction. You can even take the seat off and put in a Graco car seat if your baby prefers to sit in that. It comes with plenty of sounds, even white noise, but if you or your baby doesn't like them, you can plug in your MP3 player and play anything you want. Oh and you can plug in the whole SweetPeace; you don't have to run it on batteries. And of course you can set different swinging speeds.
The SweetPeace didn't exist when my babies were tiny, so I'm sort of jealous of parents who have it now. It's a swing, but maybe better than a swing, because it more closely mimics a parent's natural rocking motion. It's almost a whole new category of baby gear. It costs about $180, but I'm able to give one away here, thanks to Graco! So post a comment; how about you tell us what helps to calm your baby, if you're a new parent? And if you're pregnant, tell me where you're making your baby registry (because I'm currently working on the mother of all registry guides). One lucky poster will win the SweetPeace; the full rules are here. You have through Wednesday, January 4th to comment. Goody luck!Add a Comment

My daughter likes to be in a sling pretty much at all times. I would love to win something like this so I can put her down and get stuff done around the house.
I totally agree on the Amazon registry. Plus you also have a chance to win your entire registry when you create one on Amazon. This onealso worked out best for me because I have a lot of family who live out of town. They could just order and ship it right to me. Plus Amazon is wonderful with returns. I had quite a few.
Much luck with your registry!!

by Ashley Murphy

My first baby boy LOVED the little vibrating seats! What a life saver! I LOVE that the sweetpeace swing includes this feature in it (therefor needing one less baby item taking up room) and swings side to side rather than back and forth! How could a baby NOT love this!!! I'd LOVE to get one for my new little guy on the way (due any day now!)
by Ashley Murphy

Forgot to mention, I am registered on amazon! Why register anywhere else since Amazon has the universal feature! Awesome!

My son was pretty easy going, and didnt require much soothing. He did LOVE his swing though, and we were sad when he outgrew it(that meant he was becoming a big boy!) My cousin just found out that she she is having triplet boys (naturally occurring!) and i think shell need a few miracles like this swing!

I love this swing. I had it on my registry bit didn't receive it. I soothe my baby with white noise, sitting in her other swing or rocking her. I'd love to win this!

I am pregnant with my second child, He is due in April . I wish there were things like this when my daughter was a baby 8 years ago, sure would've made getting things done A LOT easier lol. I did not even have a swing for her, but I've heard they can be life savers for busy mommies.
I am registered at Walmart , Babies 'R Us, Target and Amazon. Although I've had a ton of problems with the information that uploaded on Babies R Us and Target's websites, which is a BIG Bummer since all my family and friends are out of state and would need to have any items purchased from my registry shipped directly to me. Babies R us even put 16 items on my registry that were Girl apparel, which totally confused all the people who weren't sure what I was having. I'd recommend People double check their registries frequently!!!
I'd live to win this Amazing …uh… swing/rocker/baby soother? lol it even matches my sons nursery !:D

The old sweet pea swing that I had was so handy! It was really useful when we came home from anywhere. Just being able to switch the seat out with our car seat was the best! No crying fits when we got home. I wish I still had one for my daughter (due in March!)
by Lyz

I just had a little girl on October 2 and she's teething already. She loves anything that vibrates and plays ocean sounds. She loves her swing but it has a short in it and she really needs another one. I stay at home all day with her while my fiance works so the Sweet Peace would be wonderful!

by Danica Seeger
On December 29, 2011 at 4:57 pm
I would just love this for my daughter ! it is so nice how they have figured out how to make it so the seat can come off and be moved around to make the baby feel comfrontable. But also come off so you can put the baby car seat on there when you come home. I think it would work great for when the baby is sleeping and you don't want to take them out of the car seat right away.

I am due with my FIRST in July! Honestly, the baby regustery is so overwhelming to me at this point. There is so much out there. I am the first of my friends to be married and pregnant so aside from the elders I have no one close to turn to in order for advice on the new must haves. I guess I will register later in my pregnancy: at the end of my second trimester to my early third trimester.
Thank you for the opportunity! We are starting from scratch and are excited at the chance for a swing!
by Miranda Welle
On December 29, 2011 at 5:37 pm
I find that baby-wearing helps calm most babies! Our youngest just turned 1 but we are expecting again! So I would love to win!
As for a baby registry. My aunt (who does daycare) swears by the Fisher Price Newborn Rocker! She even purchased a second one because her daycare babies LOVED that thing for MONTHS! She said it's great because the baby sits at an incline but you can rock the "seat?" so it is great for putting crabby babies to sleep too!

I had one…. My daughter AND son both hated it. It was boring as heck lol.
by Jani Hays

To help calm my granddaughter I walk with her and bounce her. This kills my back, but I will deal with the pain in order to help out her parents. The SweetPeace would be a huge help.
by Sarah
On December 29, 2011 at 6:57 pm
I have a son who is 2, so not much calms him now, if he's in a "mood!" He's a pretty mellow kid though, so that helps.
I am currently pregnant with our second child, a little girl, and I would love this swing to help calm and soothe her when I can't hold her. We're registered at Babies R Us, but both hubby and I have wishlists on Amazon for both kiddos, so there's that, too.
by Heady C
On December 29, 2011 at 7:20 pm
I'm a first time mommy and what helps soothe my 2 month old baby is when I rock him in my arms. This would be great to win because he just might like being rocked in it and I can play my classical music which he loves. good luck to us!! Yay

When they're not attached to Mommy, my kids have always loved their swing. Unfortunately, the first 2 wore it out so our baby due in May doesn't have one! I love that it doesn't have to run on batteries. I thought we were going to have to take stock in Energizer when my kiddos were infants!

My baby is 11 weeks old and he is my very first! What soothes him is a super warm bath, cozy jammies then I read him a chapter of one of my books. He loves Nicholas Sparks, by the way lol. Then I rock him to sleep in my arms, because he's really good at fighting sleep. After he finally falls asleep, he's knocked out! <3

You're jealous? I'm jealous!! My baby is 5 months old and we are using her 4 year old brothers old swing by another known brand. It was an expensive swing 4 years ago but I remember complaining how constantly replacing D batteries would cost us more than diapers! I expressed my concern to the company about making swings that have adapters. Now, 4 years later I could have purchased a new one but money is tight for many. Why purchase new when I have a perfectly working swing?
My daughter lives in her swing. She will sleep in her crib and she's not too fussy, but she will only sleep long stretches in her swing. That and it's easier for me to keep an eye on her or hear hear (even with monitors) when she's in a room away while doing housework. And when the batteries die and we don't have spare replacements… It's freak out mode!
The only true way to soothe my baby without her swing is by breastfeeding her or just holding her (which throw in a herniated cervical disc and pinched nerve all down my "holding" arm) you can catch my drift.
So these swings are lifesavers for many!
Babies are soothed just by simple touch and comfort. At least mine were.
I'm hoping to win this for a friend who is due in early June. Her kids are older and she has no baby items. I could always give her my old swing but I figure this would knock all of her other baby shower gifts away. Thanks for reading and best of soothing to all of you moms!

My daughter (3 months old) can get super fussy sometimes. Mommy's hum in her ear while she's on my shoulder quiets her in an instant. We know she's a snuggler. I love her little exploring hands and fingers now.
by Jennifer Askew
On January 4, 2012 at 12:25 pm
This swing looks great! I love how you can put the Graco car seat right in it. When my 3 month old wakes up in his car seat after getting back home he freaks out, but maybe if it was moving in this swing, he would not be so confused and upset.

I'm pregnant with my 2nd girl due in April and we don't have a swing. I borrowed one that had to be returned.. this one sounds amazing! If my 2nd is anything like my first who needed constant rocking (we had a exercise ball which was the only thing that stopped her from crying!) we'll need something like this. I registered at Buy Buy Baby and Target. Buy buy baby was my favorite – easy returns and the staff is all trained on their specialty areas so you could get detailed answers!

The Christmas tree was actually working great during the month of December – those lights are so soothing to our three month old daughter. Too bad we can't keep it up all year long! Otherwise we sooth her with swaddling, shushing, swaying, the pacifier, and other pretty lights (my husband works in production lighting and got a little colored disco like ball for her nursery – works wonders).

Kingsville: Incumbents return to council
Also, eight amendments to 100-year-old charter convincingly approved
Kingsville Mayor Sam Fugate and four incumbents on the city commission were elected to another term in office Saturday.
Fugate, 52, handily defeated challenger Tomas Sanchez, 63, by a margin of 764 votes. Fugate took 1,167 votes to Sanchez's 403, according to complete, unofficial returns.
Fugate, a local attorney, first was elected to office in 2004, when he defeated former Kingsville mayor Phil Esquivel Jr. and Sanchez.
Incumbent commissioners Al Garcia, Stanley Laskowski, Art Pecos and Charlie Wilson also were re-elected to the four at-large seats, defeating four challengers.
Garcia received 841 votes; Wilson received 882 votes; Laskowski received 812 votes and Pecos received 675 votes. Their nearest challenger, Joseph Ruiz, had 578 votes.
Each of eight proposed amendments to the city's charter also passed easily.
Amendments to the charter included one that clarified the recall process for both mayors and commissioners and one that made it necessary for candidates running for office to be current on tax payments to local taxing agencies.
Both Fugate and city commissioners called the amendments a matter of housekeeping and revamping the 100-year-old document.

The New York Rangers victory over the Washington Capitals in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals was no easy feat. 15 minutes into the THIRD overtime, Marian Gaborik scored the game winner to put an end to his 8-game goal drought and give the Rangers a 2-1 lead in the series.
In 9 of 10 playoff games this season, the Washington Capitals have either won or lost by only 1 goal, and half of them have needed to be settled in overtime. The game lasted a total of 115 minutes and required every last bit of energy from the players. Hats off to all of them for being able to hang in there for so long, but most importantly to the two goaltenders Braden Holtby and Henrik Lundqvist who were OUTSTANDING, making 47 and 45 saves, respectively. This had to be a tough loss for the Caps.
Game 4 will be in Washington on Saturday afternoon at 12:30pm EST

He was interested in creating a profile which is of no use to me as i came here for a shorter duration. I told that i have throat infection and for few weeks and antibiotics din't work. He wrote a sleeping medicine which did nothing but agravated my throat infection. He should have realised that he needs to discuss the dosage with the patient and not leave it to the chemist. I have 2 year old kid to manage. I hate to say but this was sheer waste of money and time. He recommended tests on top of that and my bill stands 600 dollars for a hopeless treatment. He should have told about his fees and charges before sending the bill and the tests too. When my husband asked about the any payments required the reception told nothing is required. I don't have my reports , coz i can't have an online account ..thanks to Sutter Health, my husband is required to fill a proxy form to get the online access to my reports. They misplaced the online informaiton log somewhere and we need to fill the whole thing again. Don't expect anything from this doctor. Treatment might just be a wrong word. If you book an appointment : - Check for the charges very clearly Don't go for tests unless very important Carry your insurance papers with you
Dr. Hansen is an excellent family doctor. He diagnosed a serious illness and made sure that I sought proper care. He encourages the patient to become educated about their health. He is open- minded, caring, and friendly and you never feel rushed when you see him. It is always a pleasure to see him.
Dr. Hansen can be a little business-like but is a reasonably good listener and is OK with questions.

Brandon Maurer — RP
After a failed stint as a starter, Maurer returned from Tacoma on June 25 as a rejuvenated reliever. Since being called back up, Maurer has not given up any runs and has nine strikeouts in four appearances. His value right now is probably the highest it'll be, so it makes sense for the Mariners to trade him now.

It also had to delay closing its books for 2005 after auditing firm KPMG cited "material weaknesses" in Audible's internal accounting for its retail promotions.
"The problem they had in the past is that they had a management team that couldn't shoot straight," says Citigroup analyst Mark Mahaney. In addition, "They putzed around with a lot of pricing changes."
That changed beginning mid-2005 after Audible changed its CFO, COO and marketing team.
Now, "They're executing better" and have made user-friendly changes in Audible's software, which limits copying and where downloads can be played, Mahaney says. "They have a very nice ramp to profitability."
Although original content helps, Katz understands that no one can produce enough audiobooks to control the market. Unlike music, which is dominated by four companies, hundreds produce books, articles and performances buyers might want to hear.
Audible has partnerships with more than 470 companies — 64% of them for exclusive rights to audio material.
"It's our strategy to be good partners to people all around us on the value chain," he says.
His fascination with audiobooks grew out of his work in college with Invisible Man author Ralph Ellison, years as a reporter for magazines including Rolling Stone, Esquire, Sports Illustrated and Worth, and the writing of business books, including The Big Store: Inside the Crisis and Revolution at Sears and Just Do It: The Nike Spirit in the Corporate World.
Audiobooks, he realized, "could be in a world where there were no package costs, you're never out of stock, there's no reason to go out of print, and no returns."
Now Katz wants to expand Audible's presence in education, for example with audio versions of textbooks and study guides.
He's also looking at how audiobooks can help people with learning disabilities. His oldest daughter, now a college student, has a language-processing disorder and "learned to read by listening," he says.

I installed Ronald Heft's excellent Podcasting plugin about a month ago, and used it for a single audio file. Since then (if I recall the chronology properly), I've upgraded to WordPress 2.5.1. Today I was surprised to discover that the player on my single podcast episode thus far has gone missing -- the little Flash player doesn't show up at all. I've upgraded to Podcasting 1.64, the latest version, and that's made no difference.
As a test, I grabbed the output HTML for that blog entry and pared it down to the bare essentials, leaving the HTML structure, the player.js call in the header and the object/parameter tags in the body, but that didn't make any difference, so I think I can conclude that I'm not including any other code that's problematic.
Can anybody offer some guidance as to what might be going on here?

We all miss our Uncle Forry to death, but thanks to a new book from authors Al Astrella and James Greene, we're going to have a chance to spend a bit more time with him this Halloween season! Hell yes!
From the Press Release
Though Forrest J Ackerman died in 2008, his legacy, like Count Dracula, will never die. "Forry", as he was called by friends and adoring fans, was recognized worldwide as the leading sci-fi and horror film expert of the 20th Century as well as an author, actor, literary agent, and collector of rare sci-fi and horror books, posters, artwork and movie props.
He was also known for being at the forefront of the science fiction movement in Los Angeles beginning in the 1930's and gained lasting celebrity by bringing together fans of fantasy, sci-fi and horror when he edited the legendary monster magazine "Famous Monsters of Filmland" from 1958 to 1983.

"Chic and beautifully located"
We came here to stay during the Cannes Film Festival with a group .... we loved the house, the location and the end of day peace from the madness of Cannes :)) Regine was really helpful - and we would all recommend this stunning old house at any time of year.... we'll definitely stay here again....

As we know Apple had launched iPad mini to compete with Amazon Kindle Fire and Nexus 7. Now we came to know that Apple is planning to launch cheap iPhone to compete with cheap Android phones. According to Business Insider, Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster has predicted that Apple will launch unsubsidized $200 iPhone in 2014. This is a great news for middle class iPhone lovers who are unable to purchase iPhone 5 due to its high cost. As we know Gene Munster has a good track record of predicting Apple related news, so it is expected that Apple will launch cheap iPhone in 2014.
If the prediction comes true, then you will be able to buy iPhone only for $200. The most important thing is that you can buy cheap iPhone without any contract. As we know iPad mini comes with 7.9‑inch screen while the new iPad includes 9.7‑inch, so it is expected that the screen size of the low cost iPhone will be smaller than the screen size of iPhone 5. You should note that iPhone 5 launch is the most successful iPhone launch in the history of Apple. It features A6 processor, 4-inch display, 1.2MP FaceTime camera, iOS 6, Siri, 8MP iSight camera, 1GB RAM, and 9-pin dock connector. You have to pay $199 to buy 16GB iPhone 5, $299 to buy 32GB iPhone 5 and $399 to buy 64GB iPhone 5 with a two-year contract.
As we know Android phones are available at a very low price. If the cheap iPhone costs $200, then it will be a great competitor of cheap Android phones. Still no word from Apple regarding the launch date of unsubsidized $200 iPhone. We have to consider it as rumor until the official announcement. If you are not able to buy iPhone 5 due to its high cost, then you have to wait until 2014 to buy the cheap unsubsidized iPhone that will cost around $200.
