12 U.S. Code § 1783 - National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund
(a) Creation; use of fund
There is hereby created in the Treasury of the United States a National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund which shall be used by the Board as a revolving fund for carrying out the purposes of this subchapter. Money in the fund shall be available upon requisition by the Board, without fiscal year limitation, for making payments of insurance under section 1787 of this title, for providing assistance and making expenditures under section 1788 of this title in connection with the liquidation or threatened liquidation of insured credit unions, and for such administrative and other expenses incurred in carrying out the purposes of this subchapter as it may determine to be proper.
(b) Deposit of deposits and premium charges, fees and penalties
All deposits and premium charges for insurance paid pursuant to the provisions of section 1782 of this title and all fees for examinations and all penalties collected by the Board under any provision of this subchapter shall be deposited in the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund. The Board shall report annually to the Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs of the Senate and the Committee on Banking, Finance and Urban Affairs of the House of Representatives with respect to the operating level of the fund. Such report shall also include the results of an independent audit of the fund.
(c) Investment authorization
The Board may authorize the Secretary of the Treasury to invest and reinvest such portions of the fund as the Board may determine are not needed for current operations in any interest-bearing securities of the United States or in any securities guaranteed as to both principal and interest by the United States or in bonds or other obligations which are lawful investments for fiduciary, trust, and public funds of the United States, and the income therefrom shall constitute a part of the fund.
(d) Loans to fund, limitation and terms; interest accrual; determination of interest rate
(1) If, in the judgment of the Board, a loan to the insurance fund, or to the stabilization fund described in section 1790e of this title, is required at any time for purposes of this subchapter, [1] the Secretary of the Treasury shall make the loan, but loans under this paragraph shall not exceed in the aggregate $6,000,000,000 outstanding at any one time. Except as otherwise provided in this subsection, section 1790e of this title, and in subsection (e) of this section, each loan under this paragraph shall be made on such terms as may be fixed by agreement between the Board and the Secretary of the Treasury.
(2) Interest shall accrue to the Treasury on the amount of any outstanding loans made to the fund pursuant to paragraph (1) of this subsection on the basis of the average daily amount of such outstanding loans determined at the close of each fiscal year with respect to such year, and the Board shall pay the interest so accruing into the Treasury as miscellaneous receipts annually from the fund. The Secretary of the Treasury shall determine the applicable interest rate in advance by calculating the average yield to maturity (on the basis of daily closing market bid quotations during the month of September of the preceding fiscal year) on outstanding marketable public debt obligations of the United States having a maturity date of five or less years from the first day of such month of September and by adjusting such yield to the nearest one-eighth of 1 per centum.
(3) For the purpose of making loans under paragraph (1) of this subsection, the Secretary of the Treasury is authorized to use as a public debt transaction the proceeds of the sale of any securities issued under chapter 31 of title 31, and the purposes for which securities may be issued under chapter 31 of title 31 are hereby extended to include such loans. All loans and repayments under this section shall be treated as public debt transactions of the United States.
(4) Temporary increases authorized.—
(A) Recommendations for increase.— During the period beginning on May 20, 2009, and ending on December 31, 2010, if, upon the written recommendation of the Board (upon a vote of not less than two-thirds of the members of the Board) and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (upon a vote of not less than two-thirds of the members of such Board), the Secretary of the Treasury (in consultation with the President) determines that additional amounts above the $6,000,000,000 amount specified in paragraph (1) are necessary, such amount shall be increased to the amount so determined to be necessary, not to exceed $30,000,000,000.
(B) Report required.— If the borrowing authority of the Board is increased above $6,000,000,000 pursuant to subparagraph (A), the Board shall promptly submit a report to the Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs of the Senate and the Committee on Financial Services of the House of Representatives describing the reasons and need for the additional borrowing authority and its intended uses.
(e) Excess funds credited against loans
So long as any loans to the fund are outstanding, the Board shall from time to time, not less often than annually, determine whether the balance in the fund is in excess of the amount which, in its judgment, is needed to meet the requirements of the fund and shall pay such excess to the Secretary of the Treasury, to be credited against the loans to the fund.
(f) Authorization for fund to borrow from Central Liquidity Facility
In addition to the authority to borrow from the Secretary of the Treasury provided in subsection (d) of this section, if in the judgment of the Board, a loan to the fund is required at any time for carrying out the purposes of this subchapter, the fund is authorized to borrow from the National Credit Union Administration Central Liquidity Facility.

WASHINGTON, D.C. (WUSA) - With all the destruction left in Sandy's wake, are you ready for some good, quirky news?
Samantha Friedman did what many people did Monday night: she prepared for unwelcome houseguest superstorm Sandy. "I guess I was a little worried the power would go out, I bought some batteries, I found some candles," she said.
The PR guru hunkered down, but then heard a loud noise. "I was just sitting at my dining room table, doing some work and suddenly l heard this sort of whooshing sound, very loud, very quick,"she said.
In moments, a very big tree in her front yard came crashing down onto Cathedral Avenue, blocking the four-apartment home she lives in. Less than 24 hours later, the city came to take it away. "It's kind of amazing how quickly the city came to deal with it," she said.
But that wasn't the only surprise. "When I came home form work around 6 that evening, and walked onto my porch there was this lovely little table and tea set."
Yes, you read correctly, a table with stools, and a tea set. There was seating for four, all made out of wood, presumably from that downed monster tree, though no one knows for sure. Friedman asked neighbors, hit Facebook and Twitter, even her community's listserv, but couldn't uncover the post-Sandy Santa
"I started asking more people, 'Are you sure you're not the one who did this?' And everyone's like, no,' "she said.
Apparently it wasn't a worker, and no neighbors have come forward, so for now it's a little bit of light humor, after the dark storm."
Friedman says she's fine with not knowing. "It's all a mystery, hurricane fairy someone said, so it's great,"she said.
If you are the "hurricane fairy", please reach out to us on Facebook at WUSA9. We'd love to hear from you, and give you the credit you deserve.

BROOK PARK -- They call it the Eco-Boost engine andit seems poised to give a big boost to Northeast Ohio's economy.
Ford Brook Park workers are voting on a deal that could bring almost 750 new jobs to Engine Plant 1 over the next few years.
All the jobs would be paid at top union scale.
The plant now makes engines used in Ford's strong-selling F-150 pick up trucks. Plans call to make a smaller version for Ford sedans.
"This engine is producing the most profitable part of Ford's line. That's a keystone investment going into the future, " said Dean Ned Hill, of Cleveland State's Levin College of Urban Affairs.
Hill projects that the 750 auto jobs could spin off an additional 2,100 jobs at parts suppliers and in jobs created by the additional spending at restaurants and stores.
"All that stuff together, you are going to get another 2,000 to 2,100 on top of 750," he said.
Local Ford dealers say the Brook Park connection is paying off for them.
Liberty Ford General Manager Dustin Peugeot said, "It makes people feel good to be buying something made in Brook Park. They know they are suporting the local economy that supports them."
The deal contains no concessions. Voting begins Monday.
Local 1250 President Mike Gammella predicts it will pass.
"Our people have a job in Cleveland for many years with the passage of this agreement," he said.
It's a reversal of the last several years which has seen a Casting Plant demolished and a second engine plant closed.
Hill says the revival of the auto industry and the growing natural gas and oil business mean a bright economic future for Northeast Ohio.
He says maximum natural gas production may be a couple years away.
"What we're seeing in the auto industry is now and that's excellent," he said.

MELVILLE, N.Y., October 22, 2013 – Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, announces improvements in the functionality and convenient operation of the EOS-1D X Digital SLR camera and the EOS-1D C Digital SLR Cinema camera through new firmware scheduled to be available starting in January 2014 and November 2013, respectively. Firmware enhancements for the EOS-1D X Digital SLR camera are designed to provide photographers with greater creative freedom and speed, especially in sectors such as sports, wedding, nature/wildlife, and journalism, which often contain rapidly changing action, sometimes in low-light environments. Service enhancements for the EOS-1D C Digital SLR Cinema camera improve lens performance, lens status display, metadata storage, and audio recording.
"Canon constantly strives to provide our customers with advanced and innovative technology in our products," noted Yuichi Ishizuka, executive vice president and general manager, Imaging Technologies & Communications Group, Canon U.S.A. "We understand the daily life of photographers, we listen closely to what they have to say, and we use their feedback in our constant efforts to improve existing products and develop new ones. The latest Canon firmware for the flagship EOS-1D X Digital SLR camera provides better automation to help photographers fine-tune how the camera operates moment-by-moment so users can concentrate on creativity and success. Filmmakers have also requested improved functionality for the EOS-1D C Digital SLR Cinema camera, and its new update delivers."
Developed as the ultimate Canon EOS camera, the EOS-1D X Digital SLR is designed with foresight that enables its performance to be periodically improved with new firmware upgrades, helping to ensure maximum long-term value for owners and users of the camera. These improvements are engineered to support and advance the evolving creative needs and business imperatives of professional photographers and committed high-end amateurs. The features provided by firmware version 2 are designed for more efficient automation that takes the task of changing settings away from the "heat of the moment" and enables photographers to concentrate on creativity and obtaining valuable shots. Firmware version 2 upgrades and operability additions include a total of 10 features that are now new or improved:
With these new options, photographers can reconfigure their EOS-1D X camera on the fly, while keeping their eye on the viewfinder to maintain concentration on the shot they are trying to get. For example, the camera could be set up for One-Shot AF and single shot drive mode on the shutter button, AI Servo AF in Case 1 with high-speed continuous drive mode on the AE Lock button, and AI Servo AF in Case 4 with super-high-speed 14 fps continuous drive mode on the AF-ON button.
A versatile, self-contained 4K cinema camera as well as a robust still photography camera, the Canon EOS-1D C will also benefit from a new service update that further enhances the performance of this unique imaging device.
Firmware version 2 for the EOS-1D X Digital SLR camera is scheduled to be posted on the Canon U.S.A. website in January 2014. Users will be able to download and install the new firmware on their own, or have it installed by an authorized Canon Factory Service Center. For more information please visit: www.usa.canon.com/eos1dxfirmware.
The update for the Canon EOS-1D C Digital SLR Cinema camera is scheduled to be available November 2013, and will be installed at no charge as a service upgrade that requires the camera to be sent to an authorized Canon Factory Service Center. For more information please visit: www.usa.canon.com/CinemaEOSFirmwareUpdate.

Tucson police make arrest in armed robbery cases
TUCSON — Police say they have arrested an 18-year-old man in connection with numerous armed robberies throughout Tucson.
Sgt. Chris Widmer says Jose Cuevas was initially booked into the Pima County Jail on charges related to armed robberies that occurred last Sunday at a Denny's Restaurant and a Toys-R-Us store.
Detectives ended up filing more charges against Cuevas for a string of robberies at Food City stores and a Circle K convenience store over the past two months.
He's accused of robbing the same Food City store two days apart.
In each robbery, a handgun was brandished. During one robbery, police say the suspect fired a shot through the ceiling of the business.
Police say Cuevas is also facing charges of kidnapping and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

ATLANTA -- A major accident shut down two busy Gwinnett County roads Tuesday morning.
The accident occurred on Highway 316 at Buford Drive.
GDOT said two tractor trailers were involved in the wreck; one of the big rigs overturned and lost a load of logs. At least one of the vehicles also spilled diesel on the road.
All lanes of Buford Drive and the westbound lanes of Highway 316 were shut down for a few hours. Both roads have since reopened.
A second accident on southbound Interstate 285 at Northlake Parkway in Tucker has since cleared, but there may still be some delays in the area.

Ofahn- we agree completely on this topic. The only difference between the two is that Matusz was completely dominant in A and AA before being pre maturely sent to Baltimore.
If we had that to do over again, Brian should have spent time at AAA where some of his short comings would have been detected prior to reaching Baltimore. While Brian provides a glimmer of being an effective short reliever at the MLB level, I would bet against ever seeing Hobgood reach the majors. I don't think the talent is there. Couple that with the type of injury he sustained and you have a bad recipe for reaching the show.
I think that the way these kids were managed or lack there of has forever damaged both of them. I also think Britton and Arrieta were hurt by the lack of good developmental coaches. Amazingly Tillman has survived and seems to be on a good track. Could be because he was brought through Seattles system prior to ours. I think Tillman would have prospered sooner with better coaching as well. What a shame, two high profile draft picks and almost nothing to show for it.

Carbon County continued to experience expanding employment levels in May.
The latest data compiled by the Utah Department of Workforce Services indicate that Carbon's job growth rate registered at 7.6 percent last month.
Carbon's economy generated 9,676 non-farm salary or wage positions in the local labor market in May 2006, compared to the 8,990 jobs reported by the county in May 2005.
At the state level, Utah's number of non-farm wage and salaried jobs registered a year-over increase of 4.5 percent for May 2006.
Approximately 51,700 jobs have developed in the economy statewide during the last year, raising total wage and salary employment in Utah to 1,191,200.
The rate of job growth keeps Utah within the top five states nationwide for employment expansion, pointed out the department of workforce services. The last time Utah experienced an employment growth rate in the mid 4 percent range was in early 1997.
Utah's second primary indicator of current market conditions, the unemployment rate, registered 3.5 percent in May, down 0.9 percentage points from the unemployment rate of 4.4 percent registered last year.
Approximately 45,800 Utahns were unemployed in May 2006 as compared to 55,100 in May 2005.
"There is no other way to say it - Utah's economy is booming," commented Mark Knold, DWS economist. "The twin indicators of high employment growth and low unemployment signal an economy running on all cylinders."
"How long does this last? Utah's internal fundamentals are such that it could be a multi-year run, "noted Knold. "From the current perspective, the risk of a slowdown is not so much a faltering in consumer demand or business investments. Instead, a lack of skilled workers is the economy's biggest hurdle right now."
At the national level, the United States economy has added 1.9 million jobs since May 2005 for a growth rate of 1.4 percent.
The approximately 51,700 employment opportunities added in Utah represent a growth rate of 4.5 percent. The state's employment expansion represents about 2.7 percent of all the jobs added in the U.S. during the last year.
The nation's unemployment rate registered at 4.6 percent in May.
At the state level, all employment sectors in Utah continued to add jobs, explained the department of workforce services.
In addition to the growth, none of the sectors are showing any signs of weakening.
The employment expansion ranges from a high of 11,800 jobs in the past year in the construction sector to 800 positions in the small category labeled "other services."
Professional and business services added 11,600 employment opportunities during the last 12 months.
Combined with the construction industry, the two sectors account for nearly half of the jobs created in Utah from May 2005 to May 2006.
The rate of construction growth is remarkable in Utah. The 11,800 new jobs represent a 14.6 percent increase over last year, noted Knold..
Consistently high construction employment growth rates at locations throughout Utah are not uncommon.
In the early to mid 1990s, Utah's construction industry consistently reported labor market expansion levels of 14.6 percent or higher.
Although there will be ebbs and flows in the industry, Utah's internal demographic composition suggests that construction will remain strong.
The children of Utah's baby boomers are the largest population group in the state, continued the department of workforce services economist.
Ranging from 20 to 35 years of age, the echo boomers are forming families and households.
In turn, the activity will continue to put a high demand on housing construction in Utah. A second straight decade of continued domestic and international in-migration into the state will increase the demand on housing.
The other strong pillar of the Utah economy is the 8 percent employment growth in the professional and business services sector that added 11,600 new jobs.
The strength behind the number is that half of the jobs are in the higher paying professional, scientific and technical services.
Trade, transportation and utilities added 7,600 employment opportunities to the Utah economy during the last year.
The expansion in employment opportunities in the sector represented a statewide growth rate of 3.4 percent.
The trade aspect of the industry represents the most direct avenue and conduit with consumer spending.
When people buy consumer goods, in most cases, the purchases are made through retail outlets, pointed out Knold.
Therefore, the trade aspect is population-sensitive. Trade primarily grows in direct response to population expansion.
Government continued to be a significant employment sector in Utah. But government is currently the slowest growing sector in the state.
In the 12-month period between May 2005 and May 2006, government created 2,800 jobs for a growth rate of 1.4 percent.
Government is classified into three groups - federal, state and local, explained the department of workforce services.
Federal employment is not reactive to Utah's population size. However, state and local governments are.
As population increases, the growth produces an increased demand for government services, particularly within the education system, noted the department of workforce services.
Since 2000, Utah's population has grown by more than 13 percent.
Correspondingly, combined state and local government employment has grown by 10 percent since 2000.
Government growth lagging behind population expansion suggests increased use of technologies and resulting efficiencies within Utah's public structure, concluded the department of workforce services.

Bills in both the House and the Senate designed to protect intellectual property online may actually represent a move toward Chinese-style internet censorship in the United States.
The Protect IP Act, in the Senate, and its House counterpart, the Stop Online Piracy Act, are both being backed by well-financed lobbies for the United States Chamber of Commerce, the Motion Picture Association of America, the American Federation of Musicians, the Directors Guild of America, the International Brotherhood of Teamsters and the Screen Actors Guild. These organizations all argue that legislation is needed to curtail Internet piracy of copyrighted creative works including major motion pictures and music.
Rebecca MacKinnon, a senior fellow at the New America Foundation and a founder of Global Voices Online, sees the legislation differently, as she explains in a recent editorial in The New York Times: " The potential for abuse of power through digital networks — upon which we as citizens now depend for nearly everything, including our politics — is one of the most insidious threats to democracy in the Internet age. We live in a time of tremendous political polarization. Public trust in both government and corporations is low, and deservedly so. This is no time for politicians and industry lobbyists in Washington to be devising new Internet censorship mechanisms, adding new opportunities for abuse of corporate and government power over online speech."
Some features of the legislation would ultimately make companies liable for user copyright infringements taking place on their websites thereby creating a system that, much like Chinese corporate "self-discipline," gives website operators incentive to be very strict about the information they allow to be published on their venues.

Our Ranking
The French program at Shippensburg University offers a chance to learn how to interact with more sensitivity and insight in multicultural contexts throughout the French-speaking world.
The Bachelor of Arts (BA) in French at Shippensburg University prepares students in interpersonal communication, interpretive listening, interpretive reading, oral and written presentations in French. Students also study the culture and literature of French-speaking countries including their products, practices and perspectives. Our world languages curriculum strengthens critical thinking skills and global and intercultural awareness. The BA in French with Secondary Certification prepares graduates to teach French in secondary schools.
A minor in French helps students develop cross-cultural competency, along with an ability to communicate in French to the proficiency level of Intermediate Mid (at a minimum), following the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages. This is an important component of education for students who choose careers in such fields as services (health, international organizations, volunteering); industry (import/export, marketing and advertising, overseas investments); and government (foreign service, department of state, FBI, CIA, homeland security).
A minor in French Cultural Studies, while also improving linguistic abilities, will center mostly on the cultural aspects of the French-speaking countries, in order to increase sensitivity when dealing with people of diverse backgrounds and will help students avoid cross-cultural misunderstandings and conflicts. This minor will also be an asset for the careers previously mentioned. Students will develop a French language proficiency level of Intermediate Low-Mid.
The Department of Modern Languages has a thirty-five-position computerized multimedia audio-video language-learning center for both classroom sessions and individual work. Some of the computers are equipped with Webcams and Skype to facilitate live interactions with native speakers. Practicing in a multimedia center accelerates students' learning process and transforms the most tedious aspects of language learning into an enjoyable experience. Both the department and Ezra Lehman Library maintain an excellent collection of books, magazines, maps, and DVDs on the language, literature, and culture of foreign countries.
Any student may take foreign language courses. Students majoring in International Management must take a series of intermediate or advanced courses in their chosen language. Students majoring in International Education must take 9 credits of the language of their choice at the intermediate or advanced levels. French complements two areas of specialization for this major, Europe and Africa. Language and foreign study enhance the ability to function effectively in other countries. Many students find that proficiency in a foreign language is very useful in today's highly competitive job market.
High school study of the language is helpful in allowing the student to begin the major on a solid footing. Training in a second and even a third foreign language is helpful. Take every opportunity to practice speaking and writing French. Take advantage of any language resources available: foreign language broadcasting, newspapers, music, and contact with exchange students and others who speak French. One of the student learning outcomes that Shippensburg's French language program strives to achieve is oral proficiency. Therefore, the more at ease a student becomes with speaking the language, the better they will do in our courses.
French majors and minors complete courses in conversation, writing, grammar, phonetics, culture, and literature. All courses are designed following the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL) National Standards and they are conducted in French.
FRENCH BA Required courses (36 credits)
Electives (6 credits) Two French courses at the 300 or 400 level
FRENCH BA with Secondary Certification
All courses required of the French major are taught in French. Professional Educations courses offered by other departments are taught in English.Required courses (24 credits)
Electives (12 credits) Four French courses at the 300 or 400 level
FRENCH MINOR Required courses (12 credits)
Electives (6 credits) Two additional French courses at the 300 or 400 level
FRENCH CULTURAL STUDIES MINOR Required courses (12 credits)
Fourth course chosen from:
*Course taught in Quebec or France
Related Courses (6 credits) Two courses chosen from the following:
Students may also earn a French Letter of Completion by completing four courses from the major or earn a French Translation Specialization Letter of Completion by completing 12 credits in French and 18 credits in a subject area of specialty.
Learning the French language helps students communicate more effectively, which provides many opportunities in a diverse job market. For example:
French Cultural Studies enables students to learn about the relationship between American culture and the cultures of French-speaking countries:
Shippensburg French majors have had internships in social service agencies, museums, businesses, community organizations, and government.
Students who wish to study abroad will find that there are many opportunities available. French majors are especially encouraged to study at least one semester in a French-speaking country. Study abroad is highly encouraged but not required for the minor.
There are several organizations that directly involve modern languages majors, minors, and interested students. The French/francophone Club invites all students to participate in a variety of activities, such as foreign language films and field trips. The French Honorary Society recognizes and honors students who have attained outstanding academic achievement. The Modern Languages Department provides a multilingual web page that features student production.

Yesterday, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) finalized its new transmission planning and cost allocation rule, which includes an array of new policies critical to the future development of the nation's transmission infrastructure.
CHICAGO – Yesterday, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) finalized its new transmission planning and cost allocation rule, which includes an array of new policies critical to the future development of the nation's transmission infrastructure.
Based on its initial review, Exelon is encouraged by the FERC's decision to expand planning and cost allocation processes to ensure that the grid can accommodate the new demands that will be placed upon it. In particular, it is critical that planners anticipate and plan for new federal environmental requirements on the power sector. FERC's cost allocation policies appropriately assign the costs of new transmission lines, including improved reliability, reduced congestion and compliance with federal and state policy objectives, to only those customers that enjoy those benefits. Further, FERC appropriately maintains the ability of transmission providers like ComEd and PECO to construct transmission upgrades in their respective territories to ensure reliability and meet their service obligations. Exelon is committed to working cooperatively with other stakeholders in PJM to ensure that PJM expeditiously submits tariff changes that achieve goals of the final rule.
"Exelon commends FERC for taking this important step towards clarifying the transmission planning and cost allocation rules that govern our nation's electricity grid as it expands to meet the needs of the 21st century," said John W. Rowe, Exelon chairman and CEO. "The grid will undergo an important transition as the composition of the generation fleet changes following the implementation of federal clean air rules. FERC's ruling sets the nation on a course to complete that transition in an orderly fashion."
Exelon Corporation is one of the nation's largest electric utilities with more than $18 billion in annual revenues. The company has one of the industry's largest portfolios of electricity generation capacity, with a nationwide reach and strong positions in the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic. Exelon distributes electricity to approximately 5.4 million customers in northern Illinois and southeastern Pennsylvania and natural gas to approximately 490,000 customers in the Philadelphia area. Exelon is headquartered in Chicago and trades on the NYSE under the ticker EXC.

Our general interest e-newsletter keeps you up to date on a wide variety of health topics.
Your heart beats about 100,000 times a day to circulate blood throughout your body. To pump blood, your heart's chambers contract and relax. These actions are controlled by electrical impulses created in the sinus node, a group of cells in the upper right chamber of your heart. These impulses travel through your heart and cause it to beat.
After each heartbeat, your heart's electrical system recharges itself in preparation for the next heartbeat. This process is known as repolarization. In long QT syndrome, your heart muscle takes longer than normal to recharge between beats. This electrical disturbance, which often can be seen on an electrocardiogram (ECG), is called a prolonged Q-T interval.
An electrocardiogram (ECG, also called an EKG) measures electrical impulses as they travel through your heart. Patches with wires attached to your skin measure these impulses, which are displayed on a monitor or printed on paper as waves of electrical activity.
An ECG measures electrical impulses as five distinct waves. Doctors label these five waves using the letters P, Q, R, S and T. The waves labeled Q through T show electrical activity in your heart's lower chambers.
The space between the start of the Q wave and the end of the T wave (Q-T interval) corresponds to the time it takes for your heart to contract and then refill with blood before beginning the next contraction.
By measuring the Q-T interval, doctors can tell whether it occurs in a normal amount of time. If it takes longer than normal, it's called a prolonged Q-T interval. The upper limit of a normal Q-T interval takes into account age, sex, and regularity and speed of the heart rate.
Long QT syndrome results from abnormalities in the heart's electrical recharging system. However, the heart's structure is normal. Abnormalities in your heart's electrical system may be inherited or acquired due to an underlying medical condition or a medication.
At least 12 genes associated with long QT syndrome have been discovered so far, and hundreds of mutations within these genes have been identified. Mutations in three of these genes account for about 70 to 75 percent of long QT syndrome cases.
Doctors have described two forms of inherited long QT syndrome:
Additionally, scientists have been investigating a possible link between SIDS and long QT syndrome and have discovered that about 10 percent of babies with SIDS had a genetic defect or mutation for long QT syndrome.
More than 50 medications, many of them common, can lengthen the Q-T interval in otherwise healthy people and cause a form of acquired long QT syndrome known as drug-induced long QT syndrome.
Medications that can lengthen the Q-T interval and upset heart rhythm include certain antibiotics, antidepressants, antihistamines, diuretics, heart medications, cholesterol-lowering drugs, diabetes medications, as well as some antifungal and antipsychotic drugs.
People who develop drug-induced long QT syndrome may also have some subtle genetic defects in their hearts, making them more susceptible to disruptions in heart rhythm from taking drugs that can cause prolonged Q-T intervals.

This film captures the magic of his electrify8ng performance in front of 50,000 in the Gdansk shipyards, and it features the first ever recording of selected Pink Floyd classics performed with an orchestra. Gilmour and his six-piece band are accompanied for the only time on their "On an Island Tour" by an orchestra: the 40-strong string section of the Polish Baltic Philharmonic, conducted by Zbigniew Preisner. It is the first live recording with an orchestra of Pink Floyd's "High Hopes" and "A Great Day for Freedom." The two-hour concert, directed by Gavin Elder, portrays the drama of Gdansk, set against the urban landscape of the shipyard and crane-filled skyline. Hung above the stages, suspended on two giant cranes, are six, 16-ton screens, each on focused on a band member and lit in a kaleidoscope of color and lasers by lightmeister Marc Brickman.

Unleashing Europe's entrepreneurial potential to bring back growth Közzététel időpontja:: 12/06/2013

Recognising the integral role entrepreneurs play in economic recovery, the European Commission has launched the Entrepreneurship 2020 Action Plan. A combination of investments, regulatory advances and educational opportunities, the Action Plan will help return economic growth to Europe.

The Northern Conference will not have an unbeaten boys basketball team in 2012-13 campaign.
Chateaugay took care of business on Wednesday evening over St. Regis Falls in the NAC East. OFA did the deed on Tuesday night stopping Malone in the Central Division.
On Friday evening on the 84 foot long court at Heuvelton, the host Bulldogs ended Edwards-Knoxs NAC West run in a 58-54 decision.
The difference was we kept our composure. Edwards-Knox led by nine in the first half, we chipped away. In the second half, we had a little better success offensively got up by five or six but every time Edwards-Knox came back. It was just a good battle. Im just very pleased with our teams effort, said Heuvelton coach Josh McAllister.
Kaden Dandrow, a very athletic and well skilled basketball player, hit two threes for E-K (9-1 West) to keep the game close in the fourth when Heuvelton had opportunities to pull away late. Dandrow finished with 20 points while Nick Davison and Tyler Tresidder each added 10.
Dedrick Johnson and Cody Holland each nailed two threes in 18 point-point efforts for Heuvelton (7-3 West) which fell behind 25-16 early in the second quarter but cut the deficit to 30-29 at halftime. Mike Guardino added 16 while Reilly Pierce added four.
Our bench was a little short tonight but we got some good defensive minutes from Jon Sloan, Aaron Cobb, Chris Power, and Reilly Pierce. Riley Pierce had a big duece in the fourth, said McAllister who plays St. Regis Falls today at SUNY Canton at 7 p.m.
Chris Davison and Jesse Bullock each scored five for E-K.
In the JV game, Edwards-Knox won 41-34 as Dustin Randall scored 20 points and Trent White added 10. Andrew Streeter, Mike Martin and Cole Piercey all scored six for Heuvelton.
Harrisville (8-2) downed improving Morristown (3-7) 60-56 and Hermon-DeKalb (3-7) tripped up Clifton-Fine (2-8) 54-42 in NAC West Division action.
Hammond reversed a setback to Colton-Pierrepont earlier this season with a 35-21 decision in an interdivision game.
Tupper Lake used a fourth quarter comeback for a NAC North 49-42 win over Madrid-Waddington.
Harrisville 60, Morristown 56: Starting the game with six players and finishing with four, the Rockets gave the Pirates everything they could handle.
Nathan Weaver generated 20 points to pace the Pirates. Nick Weir added 16 while Joey Butts and Jared Dreythaler chipped in eight.
Ryan Vollmer supplied three threes in a 17 point effort for Morristown. Devin Dulmage added 15 while Dakota Marshall added eight and Bobby Simmons and Zach Kanaly each logged seven.
H-D 54, C-F 42: A 17-9 third quarter advantage broke open a 23-19 halftime lead for the Demons who received 19 points on 9-13 free shooting from Macaulay Snell and 14 points and 13 rebounds from Zach Robinson. Steve Gilbert added 11 points while Jaron Robinson added seven.
Matt Russell scored 14 for the Eagles. Jordan Planty added nine while Logan Hayes chipped in eight.

Gyle Dominy tallied nine points for Colton-Pierrepont.
Tupper Lake 49, M-W 42: Tupper Lake used a 18-9 fourth quarter comeback to downed M-W which played tenaciously according to Coach Aaron Jones.
We played very tough and very hard. We starting to put the pieces together, said Jones.
Richard Wright gave us another solid game. Terry Crump did a great job on Mitch Keniston defensively holding him to nine points and Dillon Putney did a good job on the boards off the bench. We just have to play a little smarter defensively and stay out of foul trouble.
Anson Gagnier, Brock Tarbox, and Keniston ll scored nine points for Tupper Lake. Cody LaPierre added eight while Nash Botola added seven.
Wright delivered 16 points with three threes for M-W. Maurice Rease added 13 while Crump tallied rebounds boards, five steals and four points. Putney chipped in five boards and three points while Greg Thompson chipped in five boards and two points. Jacob Barney and Zach Brock each scored two.

i want to do a picture gallery with thumbs (small images) and one big picture on the SAME page as the thumbs. I don't want to use popup windows to show the big picture (don't like pop ups).
Is it possible with php to have a page of thumbs and if you click on one, the big picture is loaded on the same page. Is this possible without reloading the whole page. Is it possible to reload only the big picture?
thanks for any help.

YIELD: Makes 8 to 10 servings
ACTIVE TIME: 25 min
TOTAL TIME: 1 1/2 hr (includes standing time)
- 3 cups basmati rice (1 1/4 lb)
- 4 qt water
- 3 tablespoons salt
- 1/2 cup dried apricots (3 1/2 oz), quartered
- 1/2 cup golden raisins (3 oz)
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries (2 oz)
- 1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup coarsely chopped shelled unsalted pistachios (not dyed red; 2 1/2 oz)
Rinse rice in several changes of cold water in a large bowl until water runs clear. Drain in a large sieve.
Bring water and salt to a boil in a 6-quart heavy pot, then add rice and boil, uncovered, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes from time water returns to boil. Drain rice in sieve.
Toss together dried fruit in a bowl. Melt 6 tablespoons butter with cardamom and pepper in cleaned and dried pot, stirring to combine, then alternately layer rice and dried fruit over it, beginning and ending with rice and mounding loosely. Make 5 or 6 holes in rice to bottom of pot with round handle of a wooden spoon, then cover pot with a kitchen towel and a heavy lid. Fold edges of towel up over lid (to keep towel from burning) and cook rice over moderately low heat, undisturbed, until tender and a crust forms on bottom, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from heat and let rice stand, tightly covered and undisturbed, at least 30 minutes.
Heat remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a small skillet over moderate heat and cook pistachios, stirring, until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes.
Spoon loose rice onto a platter, then break crust into 1-inch pieces and scatter over rice. Sprinkle with pistachios.
Cooks' notes: Rice can be parboiled and drained 4 hours ahead and transferred to a bowl. Keep, covered with a dampened kitchen towel, at room temperature. Rice can stand off heat up to 1 hour. If you're short on time, you can skip letting the rice stand after cooking: Spoon loose rice onto a platter and then dip bottom of pot into a large bowl of cold water for 30 seconds to loosen crust.

Lecture Overview
Hanlon introduces the amazing adaptive coloration of cephalopods. He uses video and still photography to showcase their ability to rapidly change color, pattern and skin texture with fine control and a diversity of appearances, to produce camouflage or to send signals. He argues that all camouflage patterns in nature can be grouped into three types. In part 2, Hanlon shows us results from his lab that make a convincing case that the rapid adaptive coloration of cephalopods is controlled by their visual system; quite impressive for a color-blind animal! Part 3 focuses on the unique skin of cephalopods including the system of pigments and reflectors that allows it to quickly change to any hue and contrast, and the papillae musculature that allows the skin to deform and create multiple 3D textures.
Speaker Bio
Dr. Hanlon's career path seems to have been determined by fate; as a teenager scuba diving in Panama, he came across an octopus on a coral reef and he has been fascinated with them ever since.
Hanlon received his undergraduate degree from Florida State University and his MS and PhD degrees from the University of Miami, Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences. He spent more than a decade at the Marine Biomedical Institute at the University of Texas Medical Branch before moving to the Marine Biological Laboratory in Woods Hole, MA in 1995. Hanlon was director of the Marine Resources Center at MBL for eight years. Currently, he is a Senior Scientist and his research lab continues to investigate the wonders of cephalopod camouflage.

Lions fight off strong challenge from the Reds to claim third tour win
The British and Irish Lions faced their toughest challenge of the tour to date as the Queensland Reds threatened to upset the tourists in Brisbane on Saturday. The tempo changed in the second half however, and the Lions came away 22-12 winners.
Winger Luke Morahan was the star of the opening period, making an incredible try-saving tackle and scoring an even better try, as he glided through the Lions defence with ease.
It was the most exciting first half of the tour, as both sides made line breaks and came close to scoring great tries on more than one occasion. Unfortunately the rain picked up in the second half, which seemed to change the tempo of the match, and suit the visitors.
"The only way we could get an edge over them was by running them around and doing what we do best which is running teams off their feet and I'm very proud of the boys tonight," said captain of the Reds on the night, flyhalf Quade Cooper.
"We don't have the biggest pack or the biggest backs but we know what we're good at and we try to do that to the best of our ability and we got very close there."
The Reds scored two tries to one, but Owen Farrell's goal-kicking proved the difference.
"Pretty happy with that one. I thought we showed great character," said Warren Gatland.
"They threw everything at us in the first 20 but we toughed it out. They just kept working hard. A couple of decisions didn't go our way but the boys stuck at it."
It was their third consecutive win but they've picked up another serious injury, as Tommy Bowe broke a bone in his hand. He has already had surgery and will continue to be assesed, but Ireland winger Simon Zebo has been flown over, from Texas, to provide cover.
Front rowers Cian Healy and Gethin Jenkins will both be flying home after they suffered from ankle and calf injuries respectively. Alex Corbisiero and Ryan Grant were called up as cover.

Unfortunately Warburton and the entire backrow were pretty much anonymous for the entire match...Warburton also missed a crucial tackle which would have stopped the reds first try..Heaslip, o brien and Croft were all much better and more involved than those who played yesterday (albeit against much lesser opposition) but I really can't see Sam being left out even if there are better players there..or at least players playing better right now..
