Star of the Week
During the â��Field Seasonâ�� (May - September) the fossil crew chooses individuals to become a CFDC Palaeo Star of the Week.Â
The fossil crew looks for someone who discovered a really cool fossil or many fossils during their visit to the CFDC. It could also be someone who knows a lot about fossils or rocks or even someone who had a lot of fun with us!
Individuals awarded as the Palaeo Star of the Week will be recognized in the museum as well as this website with a caption as to why they were chosen and presented with a certificate. At the end of the field season we will draw one of our Palaeo Stars for a grand prize.   Good luck to everyone!

text: I especially like this –>"I don't know, honey, that's the law," or "Because too much sugar is just too bad for you.. it's not healthy?"– because although the drink sizes in restaurants are an issue, they're such a small part of such a large issue that a ban is throwing a tiny band-aid on a gaping wound. A ban isn't going to affect the fact that I can still buy my 2 liter of coke from the store and drink it all by myself, or drink multiple cups of " fruit juice" because that's supposed to be healthy, or eat any multitude of foods with way too much sugar in them. On the other hand, teaching me about the relationship between sugar and obesity will hopefully help me to make better choices regardless of where I'm buying my food or what I'm eating/drinking. Great post!

How Reverend Wright was wronged
Rev. Wright's words were twisted by the media to portray him as a crackpotRev. Wright's words were twisted by the media to portray him as a crackpot
LAST WEEK, the three cops who murdered Sean Bell in a hail of 50 bullets on the night before he was to be married were acquitted of all charges. The media, led by the New York Times, called on everyone to respect the verdict. The Times even lectured, "Anger and disappointment are understandable now, but New York's leadership has changed, and community activists need to absorb that fact before they attempt to heat up reaction."
Barack Obama had a similar message when he was asked for his reaction to the shocking verdict.
The senator responded, "Well, look, obviously there was a tragedy in New York. I said at the time, without benefit of all the facts before me, that it looked like a possible case of excessive force. The judge has made his ruling, and we're a nation of laws, so we respect the verdict that came down."
"The most important thing for people who are concerned about that shooting is to figure out how do we come together and assure those kinds of tragedies don't happen again," he continued. "Resorting to violence to express displeasure over a verdict is something that is completely unacceptable and counterproductive."
Politicians and pundits were wringing their hands out of fear that Black outrage over another case of the NYPD getting away with murder might tumble into angry protests and put race back at the center of the presidential campaign.
But days later, the corporate media did just that in their hysterical coverage of several public appearances by Obama's former pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright.
While the acquittal of Sean Bell's lynch mob was greeted with pleas for calm and reflection, Jeremiah Wright got front-paged from coast to coast, and dominated the national news for days. Even Obama, who in a speech on race in March had mildly admonished Wright, called a press conference to attack Wright's "rant" as "appalling and offensive."
The New York Times denounced Wright as "racist" and "paranoid." Liberal Times columnist Bob Herbert, an African American, piled on, calling Wright a "narcissist." Even Chicago Sun-Times film critic Richard Roeper got to chime in, sneering at Wright for "soaking up his 15 minutes of fame."
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
WHAT EXACTLY did Wright say to cause such a crazed reaction, anyway?
After more than a month of media denunciations and racist abuse, Wright came out swinging. He framed the attacks against him as an attack on the Black church and Black religiosity, pointing to a long list of Black religious figures targeted for media and state vitriol--among them, Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X.
Moreover, Wright continued to challenge the hypocrisy of the U.S. government. He talked about U.S. support for the apartheid regime in South Africa and for the murderous right-wing contras in Nicaragua in the 1980s; he complained about the U.S. government spending billions on the war in Iraq while people are going hungry in the U.S.; he decried the U.S. sending 4,000 "boys and girls to die for a lie"; and he denounced unfair sentencing in drug cases that has resulted in 1 million African Americans being imprisoned.
Media pundits picked out two portions of the question-and-answer segment of his appearance at the National Press Club as the basis for declaring that Wright is racist and paranoid.
First, Wright refused to attack Louis Farrakhan, saying, "Louis Farrakhan is not my enemy. He did not put me in chains. He did not put me in slavery. And he didn't make me this color."
Second, while the Times claimed Wright accused the U.S. government of creating AIDS, what he actually said was more damning:
Based on this Tuskegee experiment and based on what has happened to Africans in this country, I believe our government is capable of doing anything. In fact, in fact, in fact, one of the--one of the responses to what Saddam Hussein had in terms of biological warfare was a non-question, because all we had to do was check the sales records. We sold him those biological weapons that he was using against his own people. So any time a government can put together biological warfare to kill people, and then get angry when those people use what we sold them, yes, I believe we are capable.
Finally, Wright refused to back away from statements comparing Israeli treatment of Palestinians as apartheid--as former President Jimmy Carter has, and anti-apartheid leader Desmond Tutu as well.
Of course, the media are incapable of engaging and debating Wright's ideas. Instead, like petulant brats, they resort to name-calling.

how naive do u think i am? good lord.. i'm well aware of when b ball players were admitted str8 from hs.. and i know bryant was the first guard admitted... it isn't "natural" for them to be misguided..but i already know that you can't handle that debate so i'll keep it light for the sake of this bs thread..
Black Law Student Discussion Board / Re: Post Your Interesting News Articles Here« on: May 01, 2008, 04:18:20 PM »
this is a joke btw for the sensitive lol..
brooke could have passed if he wanted to.. now if she was having an affair with a wesley snipes looking cat.. then it'd be newsworthy
Black Law Student Discussion Board / Re: MJ OR KOBE?« on: May 01, 2008, 04:11:31 PM »
hmm just wondering.. in contrast to the players of the 80s and 90s..which set of players had more education? which players spoke more articulately thus inspiring young boys both on and off the court?
and hands down the players of the 80s and 90s outshine these new cats anyday.. kobe is definitely a beast on the court..i'll give him that.. but he couldn't outshine jordan in his prime... jordan knew what it was like to be part of a team...
these days it's whatever team v bryant.. period..
Black Law Student Discussion Board / Re: Post Your Interesting News Articles Here« on: May 01, 2008, 12:41:52 PM »
my argument was never that Obama wanted to be politically expedient (a point he's brow beating now btw lol).. rather he did exactly what he had to do in order to garner "confused" (insert eye roll ) white voters in the "easiest" way possible for him...easy of course is subjective as there's clearly backlash from the amount of time he took to do so..however had he taken the stance that the majority of the members of the church feel..he'd supposedly run the risk of kissing his campaign goodbye.. in other words he's playing the game that he has to play right now.. does that mean he agrees with the comments in question? of course not.. that's never been my argument.. i'm not Obama and i don't know what's running through his head.. but i do know that what he's done is contradict earlier comments regarding this matter.. and to me that's almost as bad as "mis-speaking" about Bosnia... it calls one's character into question and in turn validates every single question that has been posted regarding "why did u stay in 'that' church for 20 yrs... by siding with the media spin on the matter he in turn sells himself out for the sake of voters.. which goes back to the questions i posed originally to cui (who's yet to answer) about Americans being unable to make their own decisions while falling for the okedoke that the left and right are trying to create Obama = Wright.. and that's a gross misconception...
personally i'd much rather hear Michelle speak at this point.. http://youtube.com/watch?v=ifLZ7JQXv38&feature=user her brutal honesty is something that her husband can take notes on..
Black Law Student Discussion Board / Re: MJ OR KOBE?« on: April 30, 2008, 02:29:13 PM »
of all of the things that are going on right now in the world.. you make your return post about sports.. how surprising...
Black Law Student Discussion Board / Re: Post Your Interesting News Articles Here« on: April 30, 2008, 02:27:35 PM »
He should have left what Obama stuff out? he was asked a question and he responded in kind.. u still havent told me what a man of God is supposed to do.. esp when he receives death threats.. bomb threats @ the church he built.. invasion of privacy by broadcasting the location and aerial views of his home on television.. obama hasnt been thrown under a bus.. wright didnt lie.. obama did what he supposedly had to do in order to garner the security of those supposed scared white voters.. big bad black man scary u know racist bigot preacher yada yada.. I know what obama did on march 18th.. I heard the speech like everyone else..that has nothing to do with yesterday..
So what do u think Wright is gaining from this since ure saying hes getting personal gain.. what say you ? as for preaching in this manner.. Wrights sermons have aired on TVOne every Sunday morning for the past two yrs.. hes been interviewed on nightline yrs ago.. and hes done magazine interviews through the yrs.. and as I said before hes always spoken on a regular basis at various functions.. so whats new?

Sucrose Analgesia for the Reduction of Pain During Retinopathy of Prematurity Screening
- Full Text View
- Tabular View
- No Study Results Posted
- Disclaimer
- How to Read a Study Record
Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) screening is one of many potentially painful diagnostic and therapeutic procedures performed routinely on preterm infants in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. Therefore strategies for stress reduction and pain management are essential to promote growth and development and minimize long-term sequelae. Procedural analgesia should include concepts of developmental care, non nutritive suck (NNS), pharmacological and non-pharmacological agents. Sucrose is thought to stimulate the body's activation of lingual sweet taste receptors and release of endogenous opioids, when combined with NNS, non-opioid mechanisms are also activated. The administration of sucrose or the combination of sucrose and non-nutritive sucking is one of the most frequently studied non-pharmacological interventions for relief of pain in neonates and oral sucrose has been shown to be an effective and safe therapy for common neonatal procedures such as heal lance, blood-letting and venepuncture. There is conflicting evidence on the benefit of sucrose in ROP screening. Therefore the purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of sucrose combined with NNS as a potential regime for reduction of pain associated with retinopathy of prematurity screening.

St. Lucie sheriff, former Port St. Lucie councilman heading for barber's chair
To make donations or buy "swipes" to help the Chuck Hill Unit stay open, visit www.bgcofslc.org or call 772-460-9918.
Special to Treasure Coast Newspapers
PORT ST. LUCIE — The Boys & Girls Club of St. Lucie County's Chuck Hill Unit is set to rewrite Bob Marley's hit song "I Shot the Sheriff." Instead, the 150 students who meet there daily could be singing "I Shaved the Sheriff."
Sheriff Ken Mascara and former Port St. Lucie City Councilman Jack Kelly promised to shave their heads and mustaches as a show of support if the cash-strapped club meets its goal to raise $150,000 by year's end in order to stay open.
The club's board met and announced Wednesday it has raised $119,000 — just $31,000 short of its goal. Executive Director Norman Penner said he is confident the club will be successful.
"We are counting on several additional contacts that have been made," Penner said. "They are currently working their way through the corporate structure before announcing their gift."
The club also is auctioning "swipes" to people who want to help shave the sheriff's and councilman's heads. Dermatologist Shamsher Singh made a sizeable donation for the privilege of cutting Kelly's infamous thick, white hair, and County Administrator Faye Outlaw won her bid to have a swipe at the sheriff's head.
The sheriff said he welcomes the opportunity to shave his head for the cause.
"We in law enforcement know that if you keep a child busy after school, that child has less chance of getting in trouble," Mascara said. "The Boys & Girls Club offers a safe place to go and mentoring to these children."
The year-old club at Northwest Marion Avenue is considered a lifeline for the students who meet there after school daily, but it was in danger of closing because of debts. Staff salaries make up the bulk of the club's expenses.
Penner credits St. Lucie County businesses and individuals with helping keep the club open for at least another year. The board also has implemented measures to safeguard the club's future beyond that, he said.
"We have developed a new sponsorship level called the Strategic Partner, and we have gotten our first three corporate partners," he said. "They are making a major one-time gift per year for sponsoring all of our four (fundraising) events."
The club's board announced two new fundraisers: Kickball for Kids, which will bring together several adult kickball teams for Mets-sponsored matches; and House Party of Hope, in which the club's board members host parties to attract future givers. Existing events include the club's annual Steak and Steak event sponsored by Outback Steakhouse, and Cruising for a Cause on March 2, a special event on land designed to simulate dining on a cruise ship.

San Severo, city and episcopal see, Puglia (Apulia) regione, east-central Italy. It lies in the north of the Puglia Tableland, just north of Foggia city. A flourishing market centre in the 12th century, it was owned by a succession of feudal rulers before passing to the Kingdom of Naples and, in 1860, to the Kingdom of Italy. It was badly damaged by an earthquake in 1627, and little remains of the medieval city. There are several Baroque churches. San Severo is a commercial, industrial (mainly agricultural products), and communications centre for the surrounding region. Pop. (2006 est.) mun., 55,720.

At uTest, we specialize in in-the-wild testing. Our worldwide community of more than 100,000 testers provides real feedback from real users. But a truly great tester doesn't limit themselves to issues that only they would encounter. They anticipate and seek out issues that other users would have as well. Making sure that an application doesn't suffer from shorting access to users with physical or mental disabilities is at the heart of Accessibility testing. One of uTest's top testers, Helen Burge, designed a uTest University course that takes us through a broad level overview of accessibility testing.
Accessibility testing, as Helen puts it, focuses on the user. Essentially, if your application cannot be used by someone who is visually impaired, hearing impaired, or has any number of other possible limitations, you have an accessibility issue. The accessibility testing course is a great tool for developers looking to avoid locking out certain users and for testers trying to suss out bugs related to accessibility. Helen runs through a number of scenarios where someone may be limited. She also provides a link the World Wide Web Consortium website where you can see internationally shared standards of accessibility.
The key takeaway from this course is that accessibility testing is just as, if not even more, important than its testing counterparts. While issues with functionality and usability may lead you to lose and alienate your customers, accessibility issues may lead to a lawsuit for discriminatory practices.

Red Oak is America's favorite cabinet and furniture wood.
Okay, maybe that's a lofty statement.
However, since the founding of our country Red Oak has been used for virtually every conceivable wood application. And still does.
Floors, cabinetry, furniture, tool handles, stairs, doors, molding, trim, casings, paneling, plywood, veneer, and on and on.
Red Oak just so happens to be the most abundant hardwood tree in the North American forest. The wood features decent working properties in nearly all aspects – it's hard, but not severely blunting; it's stable and solid; it accepts all types of stains and dyes, as well as all types of finish; you can rout it, hand plane it, chisel it, scrape it, whatever, and the wood will respond .
Naturally, we use a lot of it in North America for these reasons.
Big Numbers
Check out these production numbers for popular hardwoods for 2006 (this shows the volume of lumber produced for each one):
For Red Oak that converts to 2,125,088,000 board feet, nearly 20% of all hardwood produced in the United States. 2 billion board feet of wood will make a lot of stuff.
Worldwide there are as many as 500 species of Oak with at least 60 species growing in the US. Based on microanatomy these are separated into three groups: Live Oak, Red Oak and White Oak. The main commercial species in the Red Oak group is Quercus rubra but wood from other species of the red oak group may be included in the lumber pile. The lumber is nearly identical and the trade accepts all of these species as Red Oak.
The heartwood ranges from a light tan to a muted pink. The lumber has a very distinctive, course grain with large open pores. It works exceptionally well but because of the open pores the grain must be filled to get a smooth finish. When quarter sawn there is a nice ray fleck but it is smaller and more subtle than the fleck in White Oak. The wood has high tannin content and may irritate the skin of some folks.
Because of the large quantity produced Red Oak can be ordered with special selections for cut, grain, or color. Plywood and veneer are readily available in anumber of specifications
Attractive, hard, strong, readily available and reasonably priced Red Oak might be just the wood for your next project. For more information check out our product listing.
Here is a nice kitchen table and chairs made of red oak, you can find other examples in our Project Gallery, too:

Mastitis overview and general control Measures
Mastitis is the most important and expensive disease of dairy industry. Mastitis comes from Greek word " Mastos" for breast "itis ", a word ending denoting inflammation.
By symptoms, disease is characterized by pain, heat redness and swelling while under microscope injured tissue is characterized by one or more of following ;accumulation of blood ,a stopping of blood flow, changes in the blood and walls of the small blood vessels and by various exudations or infiltration of white blood cells
White blood cells play important role in order to engulf bacteria at the site of action i.e udder .Thus these Leukocytes play important role in maintaining health of udder
Following table show the interpretation of leukocytes in case of presence or absence of mastitis
Reading / Number of leukocytes per millimeter of milk
|Less than 200,000
|400,000-1.5 million
|800,000-5 million
|Over 5 million
Mastitis results in severe economic losses from reduced milk production, treatment cost, increased labor, milk withheld following treatment and premature culling. Globally, the losses due to mastitis amount to about 53 billon dollars annually
It is recognized that if this disease is diagnosed in early stages, the greater portion of this loss can be avoided. This disease is characterized by physical, chemical and bacteriological changes in the milk and pathological changes in the glandular tissue of the udder. The most important changes in the milk include discoloration, presence of clots and presence of large number of leukocytes.
General control measures are important in treatment of mastitis.
The first basic principle is that mastitis cannot be eliminated from herd .We can prevent it but cannot avoid it 100 %
Antibiotic therapy is a conventional treatment , although alternatives including herbal and homeopathic approaches assume some importance.
The timely and early treatment of mastitis gives better results
All dairy animals usually have a period of 6-10 weeks prior to calving (usually annually) as a dry or resting period, a non-lactating phase. At this time, the cow remains susceptible to new intra-mammary infections, especially soon after the 'drying off' or cessation of milking, and around calving
The incidence of disease is higher in dry period rather than lactation period .The dry cow treatment with antibiotics showed a reduction in the rate of new intra-mammary infections in the dry period and higher rate of eliminating infections.
Early diagnosis of sub-clinical mastitis with reliable tests facilitates successful treatment and control
The fundamental principle of mastitis control is that the disease is controlled by either decreasing the exposure of the teat to potential pathogens or by increasing resistance of dairy animals to infection. The teat canal remains open up to 2-3 hours after milking to resume its normal confirmation. This is the reason for providing feed and water immediately after milking to encourage animals to remain standing
Effective udder washing and drying, post-milking teat dip and drying, inter-cow hand-washing, and disinfection in the milking routine decrease risk of incidence
Any animal positive for sub-clinical mastitis should be separated.
The first streaks of milk should be observed for presence of clots, streaks of blood, milk may be off color or watery, all these indicate presence of mastitis.
The milker's hand should be properly washed, dried and cleaned so that chances of spread of disease can be minimized.
All milking utensils should also be clean and dry.
The dung and urine should be removed immediately, as these are constant source of infections at the farm.
Any bad odor within the animal shed indicates the infection.
Lice, flies and ticks control strategies should be adapted.
These are often vectors and carriers of the disease.
Cracks and crevices at the farm are the breeding sites of ticks.
Further valuable information will be shared in future to address each and every thing in detail

As prime minister, Suzuki adopted what he called the politics of harmony, which emphasized increased political dialogue. At the same time, he advocated comprehensive security abroad by distancing his government from President Ronald Reagan's hard-line strategy toward the Soviet Union. During a visit to the United States in 1981, Suzuki's interpretation of the U.S.-Japanese alliance, which he said "does not imply a military connotation," angered the White House and strained U.S.-Japanese relations. Suzuki was in fact a dovish politician who concerned himself with limiting defense expenditures despite the effort of the Reagan administration's strong pressure to increase them.
In 1982 Suzuki declared that he would not run for election as party president. He dissolved his cabinet that November and retired from politics in 1990. Suzuki died in Tokyo on 19 July 2004.
