Keuka College Associate Professor of Chemistry Andrew Robak has used fine art and photography to educate others about the intricacies of science, and his latest student collaboration showcases another new perspective.
In 2012, Robak collaborated with Kat Andonucci '13 to produce "The Art of Chemistry," a unique exhibit featuring chemical experiments often photographed by Andonucci at slow speeds or in low light to highlight the array of colors, shapes and textures within a variety of chemical solutions, reactions and even optical illusions. This time, Robak's collaboration with biology major Phil Longyear '14, a Rushville resident, explores the variety of natural elements from the Periodic Table found in and around the Penn Yan area.
Together, the duo visited manufacturing plants like Abtex and Ferro, artisan studios and even retail shops such as Pinckney's Ace Hardware to document in photographs the elements in their natural or manufactured forms. The resulting images —with each name, two-letter scientific abbreviation, and a brief description of its characteristics and uses —are now on display in many storefront windows along Main Street, Penn Yan, effectively turning Main Street itself into an art gallery for "Elements of the Finger Lakes."
Nearly 60 elements of the Periodic Table's full 118 elements were found; the full collection of images can also be viewed at the Lightner Gallery at Lightner Library on the campus of Keuka College. An opening reception will be held from 4 – 5:30 p.m. at Milly's Pantry, 19 Main Street on Wednesday, June 10. Milly's is one of many local shops featuring works from the "Elements of the Finger Lakes." The exhibit will continue through July on Main Street and through August on campus.
"The project really helps people understand what chemical elements are, where they come from, how we use them and where they are [found]," Longyear said. "I like the fact that it will bring science to the masses in a way that they can understand."
According to Longyear, the "field trips" he and Robak took last fall to companies like Ferro or Coach and Equipment proved how common many of the elements truly are. Ferro, the former Transition Element Company (TransElCo), manufactures an array of pigments, powders used to make computing materials, polishing applications for lenses, polymers, plastics and more. Coach and Equipment produces small to mid-size transit buses using elements including lead (Pb), Fluorine (F), lithium (Li) and argon (Ar) in its engineering process.
At Ferro, workers take basic elements like carbon (C), titanium, (Ti) and tungsten (W), and refine them for an industrial use. So the up-close-and-personal views offered at Ferro for the exhibit educate participants beyond just a logo or company tagline, Longyear said.
"This is more than the sign on the front and [the product] that comes out the door. This is what's in-between and that was really interesting," he described.
According to Robak, a project such as this serves to merge science with the community. Not only will participants learn a little more about chemistry, but they'll learn more about the community where they live and work too.
"The Periodic Table can be hard to relate to … but in its simplest sense, it's a list of the essence of every material that we can touch, see or interact with in our daily lives," Robak said, adding that many people may not realize just how many elements could be in their own homes, too.
"This project would not have happened without those willing to let us ask questions, give tours or shoot photography inside their businesses," Robak said, noting that many company staffers actively tried to find elements in use or suggest others for Robak and Longyear to document. Community participation for the exhibit has also been high, Robak added, thanking the numerous business owners along Main Street who agreed to display the poster-size images in storefront windows or indoor displays. A trifold brochure will also be available at many participating businesses so pedestrians can learn about the project as they stroll Main Street.
Artisans such as Pete Knickerbocker of Spider's Nest Pottery or Keuka College Professor Emeritus Dexter Benedict of Fireworks Foundry were also part of the exploration. Benedict sculpts works of bronze, using oxygen (O), aluminum (Al) and lots of copper (Cu) in the process. Meanwhile, Knickerbocker makes use of elements including cobalt (Co), iron (Fe), chromium (Cr), and also copper (Cu) in his pottery.
"I had no idea that a potter could tailor and design not only his or her own glazes, but the clay itself, and (Pete) was able to manipulate those elements in order to set himself apart in his field," Longyear described.
While Longyear served as primary photographer, a few elements, such as hydrogen, posed a challenge to shoot because they can only be seen when reacting with another element, he said. In those cases, it was a challenge to "tell the story," he said.
But Mother Nature also offered a few elements as well, which the duo incorporated into the project, including images of bones for calcium, the night sky (space) for hydrogen, and a sunset at Montezuma Wildlife Refuge to represent helium, Longyear explained.
"Every day we use elements from the earth. You can look at the Periodic Table and see a number and a name, but if you really dig into it, it's really cool," Longyear said.
Talk to Dr. Tom Carroll for just a few minutes about the new high-tech instruments in the third-floor analysis lab in Jephson Science Center and you get the sense the 30-year professor of chemistry at Keuka College is more excited than a kid on Christmas morning.
To the untrained eye, the four new Perkin-Elmer laboratory machines resemble something akin to desktop printer-copiers. But the machines are capable of the kind of data analysis a researcher can use when an unknown substance is handed over with the instructions "find out what this is and report back to me." With one test on any of these machines, a student researcher could identify in minutes what used to take hours on paper. Carroll is thrilled students – and faculty – can now make regular use of the new equipment.
To biology major Rebecca Evanicki '14, the new machines enable students to analyze unknown compounds in such a way that it's like "solving a mystery," she said.
Indeed, Associate Professor of Chemistry Andrew Robak is already planning to stage a fake crime scene in the organic chemistry lab next door later this spring. He'll give the students in his organic chemistry class one day to collect evidence and they'll spend the last few weeks of the semester in the analysis lab using the new machines to identify every substance, "like a CSI practice version," he said, referring to the popular TV crime show.
It's the kind of innovation that brings the student research at Jephson Science Center into a new era of digital learning, which is part of the College's Long-Range Strategic Plan. Thanks to a $137,000 grant from Jephson Educational Trusts, the new machines were purchased and installed between semesters. They represent significant technology improvements that will enhance science coursework and research for students and faculty.
To formally recognize the new lab capabilities, the College will host its first-ever Innovation Celebration, set for 2-4 p.m., Friday, March 14, which is National Pi Day. In mathematics, Pi (represented by the Greek letter π) begins with the numbers 3.14159 and represents the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. Pi is infinite and has been calculated to over one trillion digits beyond its decimal point; contests to recite a portion of those digits are often part of the worldwide celebration. Keuka College will host its own Pi recitation contest, and guests can also take part in an unveiling ceremony, enjoy science-themed refreshments, and browse student work on display. Guided tours through the instrument lab will also be offered, and President Jorge L. Díaz-Herrera will give a videotaped message of congratulations.
Check out a unique digital timeline of stories and photos, marking moments of achievement in the College's science history since the former Millspaugh Science Center was renamed the Jephson Science Center.
One machine, the High-Pressure Liquid Chromatograph (HPLC), carries liquids from glass bottles through thin plastic tubes, passing through several compartments for analysis. According to Robak, different compartments contain an oven, vacuum pump, solution tray, and detectors, respectively.
On the tabletop directly across from it sits another machine, the Gas Chromatograph-Mass Spectrometer (GC/MS or "GC – Mass Spec"). To put it simply, the GC separates mixtures into individual components, while the "mass spec" identifies separate fragments, so the scientist can determine what the molecules are, Carroll said. In scientific terms, this process is known as ionizing. The GC/MS features a rotating unit that can extract samples from a tray of up to 108 small vials at one time, conducting analysis as programmed by a small touch screen at the side.
Connected to the CG/MS is a new computer running high-performance software that converts the data readings of molecular ions into a bevy of colorful charts and graphs. Based on the peaks and plunges of a fragment's chart, the computer searches a large digital library to find the closest match – all in a matter of seconds, Evanicki said. Without it, a student would have to calculate results by hand to narrow down what fragments might be present and then cross-check his or her shortlist of possibilities against a book to determine the answer, she said.
On another table against the wall, a smaller machine, the Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometer (FTIR), contains an oval plate with a small diamond reflective element through which infrared light can pass. Connected to another computer running high-speed software, the FTIR is able to provide information about the identity of liquid or solid compounds, Carroll said.
The fourth machine, a Lambda-35, is a newer model of a UV spectrometer already in the lab. It uses visible and ultraviolet light to determine the absorption spectrum of a solution, which will show how much light it absorbs across a range of wavelengths, from visible to UV rays.
The GC/MS is Evanicki's favorite because various tests on multiple samples can be run in one sitting without switching vials in the tray, she said. In addition, a student can run a series of different tests on just one sample.
"There are just so many different things you can do with it," Evanicki said.
She should know. Evanicki spent the bulk of January alongside biochemistry major Brian DelPino '14, setting up the new machines, conducting test runs and writing equipment usage manuals, all as part of their senior Field Periods™. Carroll defers to the duo with pride, dubbing their user guides "equipment manuals for dummies."
"Step One: Turn the machine on," he read aloud from a sheaf of typewritten instructions, before continuing tongue-in-cheek. "Step Two: If you have any questions or problems, contact Rebecca or Brian."
On Wednesday, sophomores in Robak's organic chemistry class took a sneak peek at the new equipment they were due to try out in their Thursday lab. About a dozen other students in Carroll's Analytical Chemistry course will also run utilize the instrument lab this spring. Enthusiasm is running high, not just for the chance to use the machines this semester, but for the rest of their undergraduate studies.
"We're all very excited about the new equipment and excited to learn how to use it – science is fun!" said biology major Heidi VanBuskirk '16.

Sophomore Josh Makin (Lethbridge, Alberta/Catholic Central) has been instrumental in the successes of the Keuka College men's volleyball team.
In 2013, Keuka's first year with a team, Makin, an outside hitter, earned second-team All-North Eastern Athletic Conference (NEAC) honors as the Storm captured the NEAC postseason championship.
As a talented student-athlete, Makin relies on athletic trainer Jeff Bray and assistant athletic trainer Gabrielle Lorusso to keep him healthy and on the court, despite the assorted nicks and bruises that occur during the volleyball season.
During the January Field Period™, Makin landed a joint Field Period™ with Rebound Health Center in Lethbridge, Alberta and Ocean Physical Therapy in San Clemente, Calif.
His appreciation for physical therapy started before Makin arrived on campus. When he was 17, Makin tore his anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and had reconstructive surgery before enduring a grueling, six-month rehabilitation.
Recognizing the important role physical therapists play in not only athletics, but in day-to-day life, Makin, a biology major, decided he wanted to become a physical therapist once he graduates from Keuka.
His latest Field Period™ only reaffirmed his passion for physical therapy. (more…)
It's a cold day in Buffalo, typical for this industrial city, which is dusted with a fine coat of snow. Traversing the numerous buildings and animal habitats at the Buffalo Zoo, but sporting warm and cheerful smiles, are Ashley Hager and Megan Hilsdorf, junior biochemistry majors at Keuka College.
Both put in 8-hour-a-day, 6-day work weeks for three weeks in January to conduct 140-hour, Field Period internships at the zoo. While Hager spent most of her time in the Reptile House, working in the Hellbendar (salamander) acquatics lab, Hilsdorf worked with primates, birds and other animals in the M&T Rainforest Falls exhibit. Both were exposed to sections of the zoo the public never sees, such as where specialized meals are prepared for each exhibit, animals receive any needed veterinary care, and babies are are kept until they are old enough to venture out into the display habitats.
Thanks to a relative of Hilsdorf's who offered use of his Buffalo apartment for three weeks when he wasn't going to be there, both girls were able to stay in the city and commute to the zoo each day for the internship, which is an annual part of every Keuka student's graduation requirements.
"They're so short-staffed, and they told us we've been a big help," said Hager.
Start with a science lab. Add one chemistry professor with self-described "wacky interests." Introduce a visual and verbal art major once obsessed with rocks, especially the minerals that glow under ultraviolet light. Mix up a variety of chemistry experiments under special lights and have the student capture them on camera. What do you get?
The Art of Chemistry, a year-long discovery in pictures of the beauty and form caused –and sometimes concocted – with a variety of chemical compounds. The art exhibit runs through Sept. 28 in Lightner Gallery inside Lightner Library at Keuka College, where an artist reception will be held from 4:30 – 6 p.m. Thursday, September 20. The gallery is open daily; hours can be found on the main page at: http://lightner.keuka.edu
Student photographer Kat Andonucci, a junior from Chestertown, near the Lake George region, did a year-long independent study under the guidance of Andy Robak, associate professor of chemistry. With Robak casting the vision and directing her in each experiment, Andonucci crafted the composition, often using a tripod, a remote shutter and a long exposure to create the images. For example, one image of Robak pouring a luminol solution into a narrow-mouth beaker required the shutter remain open for 15 seconds or more to showcase the intense blues and greens of the liquid.
"Everything we did had to be something visually appealing," explained Andonucci, describing how the independent study served as her chemistry class for the year.
"I've owned my camera since ninth grade, and as a side hobby, I did landscapes and outdoor pictures," Andonucci said, explaining how she entered college as a biology major, thinking she would pursue a career in forensic pathology. But a film photography course in her first semester got her thinking her high school hobby might turn out to be more than just something to do on the side. So she switched her major to visual and verbal art.
Enter Robak, who contacted Melissa Newcomb, assistant professor of art, last year in search of a student who could help illustrate experiments that would show "the fun side of chemistry."
"I've always been interested in chemistry as art or science as art. You can see from the pictures that a lot of stuff I work with is really cool," said Robak, who holds a Ph.D. in organic chemistry. He rattled off a variety of compounds, from mercury, with its shiny metallic texture that is "really fun to play with," to flourescein, which turns neon-green when in contact with water, to glycerol, which refracts light in a way that seems to make objects submersed in it disappear. Images of each of those chemicals appear in the exhibit.
"We wanted to treat as a course, the chemistry of things that are neat to look at, to have a clue what they were," Robak said, pointing out how many science textbooks use photography to illustrate experiments. The two received a $500 grant from Keuka's Division of Academic Affairs to help cover costs of printing and framing the images.
For her part, Andonucci said she was "excited and nervous" because shooting under such unusual conditions was outside of her comfort zone with natural, outdoor lighting. Indeed, lighting was the biggest challenge as she would sometimes use a window, a lamp, black lights, or would incorporate the light generated from a chemical itself in different images.
A secondary challenge was the blink-and-miss-it nature of some of the experiments, such as a shot of flames from methane gas bubbles leaping upward from the hand of Erik Holmes, a senior visual and verbal art major.
Andonucci had to be sure to take several shots of each experiment, capturing several on camera by conducting experiments several times in a row. For another image, Robak directed her to bring glycerol, a liquid, into contact with purple potassium permanganate, a solid, which bursts into purple flames and smoke without any introduction of heat, he said.
"Kat worked on that one for a long time. She tried about 20 times and probably took 150 photographs of the same thing in order to get it right," Robak said. It's a good thing she shot in digital, because she kept filling up the camera's memory card every time, he added.
"More than anything, I think she had a really good eye for these sorts of things. She takes a great picture, but out of many, many pictures that she got, she was great at picking out the right ones," Robak said.
After a year of translating her chemistry class into images, Andonucci said she would be willing to work with Robak again on similar projects. She is considering posting her images online to see if she could market them to companies for commercial use.
"There's so much you can do with forensic photography," she said, adding that she's "pretty open to anything [with photography], as long as it's not taking pictures of people."
Robak managed to convince Holmes to paint a graffiti mural on a concrete wall last year. The mural illustrated the chemical structure of concrete itself, and Robak said he has ideas for other special projects involving science and other types of art, whether sculpture, painting or more.
"I've got too many ideas and not enough artists," Robak said. "I'm totally looking for more people to rope into these kinds of things."
Summing up her year-long experiment and the exhibit, Andonucci said "it's awesome, it's pretty and it's cool. I had fun and learned a ton."

The diagnosis of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is based on subjective measures despite evidence for multisystemic structural and functional deficits. ADHD patients have consistent neurofunctional deficits in motor response inhibition. The aim of this study was to apply pattern classification to task-based functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) of inhibition, to accurately predict the diagnostic status of ADHD. Thirty adolescent ADHD and thirty age-matched healthy boys underwent fMRI while performing a Stop task. fMRI data were analyzed with Gaussian process classifiers (GPC), a machine learning approach, to predict individual ADHD diagnosis based on task-based activation patterns. Traditional univariate case-control analyses were also performed to replicate previous findings in a relatively large dataset. The pattern of brain activation correctly classified up to 90% of patients and 63% of controls, achieving an overall classification accuracy of 77%. The regions of the discriminative network most predictive of controls included later developing lateral prefrontal, striatal, and temporo-parietal areas that mediate inhibition, while regions most predictive of ADHD were in earlier developing ventromedial fronto-limbic regions, which furthermore correlated with symptom severity. Univariate analysis showed reduced activation in ADHD in bilateral ventrolateral prefrontal, striatal, and temporo-parietal regions that overlapped with areas predictive of controls, suggesting the latter are dysfunctional areas in ADHD. We show that significant individual classification of ADHD patients of 77% can be achieved using whole brain pattern analysis of task-based fMRI inhibition data, suggesting that multivariate pattern recognition analyses of inhibition networks can provide objective diagnostic neuroimaging biomarkers of ADHD.

Depression is commonly co-morbid with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). However, it is unknown whether depression is a functional consequence of OCD or whether these disorders share a common genetic aetiology. This longitudinal twin study compared these two hypotheses. Method Data were drawn from a longitudinal sample of adolescent twins and siblings (n = 2651; Genesis 12-19 study) and from a cross-sectional sample of adult twins (n = 4920). The longitudinal phenotypic associations between OCD symptoms (OCS) and depressive symptoms were examined using a cross-lag model. Multivariate twin analyses were performed to explore the genetic and environmental contributions to the cross-sectional and longitudinal relationship between OCS and depressive symptoms. In the longitudinal phenotypic analyses, OCS at time 1 (wave 2 of the Genesis 12-19 study) predicted depressive symptoms at time 2 (wave 3 of the Genesis 12-19 study) to a similar extent to which depressive symptoms at time 1 predicted OCS at time 2. Cross-sectional twin analyses in both samples indicated that common genetic factors explained 52-65% of the phenotypic correlation between OCS and depressive symptoms. The proportion of the phenotypic correlation due to common non-shared environmental factors was considerably smaller (35%). In the adolescent sample, the longitudinal association between OCS at time 1 and subsequent depressive symptoms was accounted for by the genetic association between OCS and depressive symptoms at time 1. There was no significant environmental association between OCS and later depressive symptoms. The present findings show that OCS and depressive symptoms co-occur primarily due to shared genetic factors and suggest that genetic, rather than environmental, effects account for the longitudinal relationship between OCS and depressive symptoms.

Young people with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are more likely to have heightened levels of anxiety compared with their typically developing (non-ASD) peers. The reasons for this are poorly understood, and there has been little research investigating the cognitive correlates of anxiety in individuals with ASD. Typically developing youth with anxiety disorders have frequently been found to show an attentional bias toward threatening information. In this study, we examined whether such a bias was also found in young people with ASD and anxiety symptoms. The protocol utilized two versions of the dot-probe paradigm, the first with emotional faces and the second with emotional words. Participants comprised 38 boys with an ASD and 41 typically developing controls aged 10-16 years of age. Those with an ASD displayed higher levels of parent- and child-rated anxiety (both P < 0.001) and depression (P < 0.001) compared with controls. However, there were no significant group differences in attentional bias scores and no significant relationship between anxiety and attentional bias in either the face or word tasks, for either group. Our findings suggest that, for young people with ASD, unlike non-ASD individuals with an anxiety disorder, high levels of anxiety may not be associated with attentional bias to threat. This may indicate that anxiety in ASD has different cognitive correlates from anxiety in the typically developing population. Further conclusions, study limitations, and future directions are discussed. Autism Res 2013, ●●: ●●-●●. © 2013 International Society for Autism Research, Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

To examine the prospective relationship between age of onset of bipolar disorder and the demographic and clinical characteristics, treatment, new onset of psychiatric comorbidity, and psychosocial functioning among adults with bipolar disorder. As part of the National Epidemiologic Survey on Alcohol and Related Conditions, 1600 adults who met lifetime Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th edition criteria for bipolar disorder-I (n = 1172) and bipolar disorder-II (n = 428) were included. Individuals were evaluated using the Alcohol Use Disorder and Associated Disabilities Interview Schedule-IV version for Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th edition, and data were analyzed from Waves 1 and 2, approximately 3 years apart. Individuals with bipolar disorder were divided into three age at onset groups: childhood (<13 years old, n = 115), adolescence (13-18 years old, n = 396), and adulthood (>19 year old, n = 1017). After adjusting for confounding factors, adults with childhood-onset bipolar disorder were more likely to see a counselor, have been hospitalized, and have received emergency room treatment for depression compared with those with adulthood-onset bipolar disorder. By contrast, there were no differences in the severity of mania or hypomania, new onset of comorbidity, and psychosocial functioning by age of bipolar disorder onset. Childhood-onset bipolar disorder is prospectively associated with seeking treatment for depression, an important proxy for depressive severity. Longitudinal studies are needed in order to determine whether prompt identification, accurate diagnosis, and early intervention can serve to mitigate the burden of childhood onset on the long-term depressive burden of bipolar disorder.

Functional inhibitory neural networks mature progressively with age. However, nothing is known about the impact of gender on their development. This study employed functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to investigate the effects of age, sex, and sex by age interactions on the brain activation of 63 healthy males and females, between 13 to 38 years, performing a Stop task. Increasing age was associated with progressively increased activation in typical response inhibition areas of right inferior and dorsolateral prefrontal and temporo-parietal regions. Females showed significantly enhanced activation in left inferior and superior frontal and striatal regions relative to males, while males showed increased activation relative to females in right inferior and superior parietal areas. Importantly, left frontal and striatal areas that showed increased activation in females, also showed significantly increased functional maturation in females relative to males, while the right inferior parietal activation that was increased in males showed significantly increased functional maturation relative to females. The findings demonstrate for the first time that sex-dimorphic activation patterns of enhanced left fronto-striatal activation in females and enhanced right parietal activation in males during motor inhibition appear to be the result of underlying gender differences in the functional maturation of these brain regions.

The commentary by Arnold (2013) raises a number of interesting issues and speculations about the action of methylphenidate in children with intellectual disability (ID) and associated neurodevelopmental disorders, such as autism spectrum disorders. In our article (Simonoff et al., 2013), we were careful to stick closely to the statistical analysis plan drawn up (and approved by the Data Monitoring Committee) during data collection and prior to any exploratory analysis. However, a number of the issues raised by Arnold warrant further response, with the aim of clarifying the lessons that can reasonably be drawn for clinical practice.

BACKGROUND: An earlier randomised controlled trial demonstrated improved treatment engagement in adolescents who received Therapeutic Assessment (TA) versus Assessment As Usual (AAU), following an emergency presentation with self-harm. OBJECTIVES: To determine 2-year outcomes for the same adolescents focusing on frequency of Accident and Emergency (A&E) self-harm presentations and treatment engagement. METHOD: Patients in the TA groups (n=35) and the AAU group (n=34) were followed up 2 years after the initial assessment. Their primary and secondary care electronic records were analysed. RESULTS: There was no significant difference in the frequency of self-harm resulting in A&E presentations between the two groups (OR 0.69, 95% CI 0.23 to 2.13, p=0.53). Treatment engagement remained higher in the TA group than the AAU group. CONCLUSIONS: TA is not associated with a lower frequency of A&E self-harm presentations. The effect of TA on engagement is maintained 2 years after the initial assessment. Interventions to reduce self-harm in adolescents are needed.

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder, but diagnosed by subjective clinical and rating measures. The study's aim was to apply Gaussian process classification (GPC) to grey matter (GM) volumetric data, to assess whether individual ADHD adolescents can be accurately differentiated from healthy controls based on objective, brain structure measures and whether this is disorder-specific relative to autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Twenty-nine adolescent ADHD boys and 29 age-matched healthy and 19 boys with ASD were scanned. GPC was applied to make disorder-specific predictions of ADHD diagnostic status based on individual brain structure patterns. In addition, voxel-based morphometry (VBM) analysis tested for traditional univariate group level differences in GM. The pattern of GM correctly classified 75.9% of patients and 82.8% of controls, achieving an overall classification accuracy of 79.3%. Furthermore, classification was disorder-specific relative to ASD. The discriminating GM patterns showed higher classification weights for ADHD in earlier developing ventrolateral/premotor fronto-temporo-limbic and stronger classification weights for healthy controls in later developing dorsolateral fronto-striato-parieto-cerebellar networks. Several regions were also decreased in GM in ADHD relative to healthy controls in the univariate VBM analysis, suggesting they are GM deficit areas. The study provides evidence that pattern recognition analysis can provide significant individual diagnostic classification of ADHD patients and healthy controls based on distributed GM patterns with 79.3% accuracy and that this is disorder-specific relative to ASD. Findings are a promising first step towards finding an objective differential diagnostic tool based on brain imaging measures to aid with the subjective clinical diagnosis of ADHD.

Background: In addition to the core symptoms, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is associated with poor emotion regulation. There is some evidence that children and young adults with ADHD have lower omega-3 levels and that supplementation with omega-3 can improve both ADHD and affective symptoms. We therefore investigated differences between ADHD and non-ADHD children in omega-3/6 fatty acid plasma levels and the relationship between those indices and emotion-elicited event-related potentials (ERPs). Methods: Children/adolescents with (n=31) and without ADHD (n=32) were compared in their plasma omega-3/6 indices and corresponding ERPs during an emotion processing task. Results: Children with ADHD had lower mean omega-3/6 and ERP abnormalities in emotion processing, independent of emotional valence relative to control children. ERP abnormalities were significantly associated with lower omega-3 levels in the ADHD group. Conclusions: The findings reveal for the first time that lower omega-3 fatty acids are associated with impaired emotion processing in ADHD children.

YMMV: Rankin Bass Jack Frost
- Ear Worm: The Kubla Kraus theme song, There's The Rub.
- Hilarious in Hindsight: A girl being in love with Jack Frost...well, that seems pretty random. Not anymore, thanks in part to Rise of The Guardians.
- Once Acceptable Targets: The villain, Kubla Krauss, is very obviously a Cossack Russian. Played with in that even the other Cossacks couldn't stand him!
- Tear Jerker: After everything Jack did to win the heart of the girl who he loved so much that he was willing to give up immortality for, she marries someone else, and he has no choice but to return to the heavens.

The Space

My favorite place is the top floor where there is a huge open space with the living room, dining area, small pool, terrace, sofas, outdoor table and an incredible view. Here you will enjoy life! It also features A/C in case you want a cool environment that can be closed with glass sliding doors (without sacrificing the great view). You have wifi everywhere. In the living room area there is a 50" TV with high definition Sky TV.

Her assistance is included in your fee. For more than 6 guests, she will bring another person to help her with all the daily chores (addt'l fee will apply).
Located in the gated community Punta Ixtapa, in the Veleros section, you will have free use of the luxury resort's 2 clubs and 4 private beaches:
- 'El Morro' beach club with 2 large infinity pools, a great restaurant, and a private beach with kayaks and lifeguards. It takes 3 minutes to walk from our condo to El Morro.
- 'Las Cuatas' with 2 private beaches and an beautiful gym overlooking the ocean.
- The fourth beach is called Playa Quieta and it also has a private club with a pool and a restaurant.This beach is great for jogging, walking or water skiing.
The clubs have an incredibly high level of service: they provide you towels, beach umbrellas, and bar and food service (drinks just keep coming!). The restaurants have a top notch Mexican chef who creates fresh and delicious dishes, at incredible low prices (restaurants are non-profit services).
Our condo has 2 new hybrid bikes that you can freely use to bike around Ixtapa. By the way, Ixtapa is famous for its 'ciclopista', it is a +20km (12 miles) paved path that goes along all Ixtapa an into Playa Linda, where people bike, jog, walk and skate. There are lots of free additional things to do on premises to have everyone happy: tennis, paddle-tennis, bicycles, kayak and workout gym by the beach.

El departamento esta muy comodo y muy bonito, realmemte lo disfrutamos. El lugar es precioso.
Excelente opción para pasar unas vacaciones en familia. El lugar es súper tranquilo y privado. El departamento tiene dos niveles, en el primero están tres habitaciones (cama king size +sofa, cama king size+sofa, 2 camas individuales +sofa) cada una con su baño. Las habitaciones con cama king size comparten una terraza muy agradable, hay una hamaca también.
En el segundo nivel está la cocina, lavandería, sala (tele con AppleTV), comedor, terraza con alberca y sillones, un baño con regadera y una cuarta habitación (tres camas individuales).
Ari es la señora que nos preparó delicioso los desayunos y comidas, y nos podía dejar cosas preparadas para las cenas, pues ella está hasta las 5pm. Ari hace también el aseo de la casa todos los días.
La playa y el club de playa El Morro están a 3min caminando del departamento, tienen muy buen servicio también!
Rene y Karin siempre estuvieron al pendiente de lo que se necesitara, estuvimos en contacto durante la estancia. Todo perfecto!
We stayed at Rene and Karin's condo the first four nights of our honeymoon and it could not have been any better! Rene was very helpful in answering questions before our arrival, and when we arrived the condo staff and Ari (who is an excellent cook) were very hospitable.
Originally we were going to stay at Capella Ixtapa, and were pleasantly surprised to see that the condo was so near, and included so much more than the hotel would have.
The private beach closest to the condo, El Morro, is one of the best beaches we have been to; the view is breathtaking.
I highly recommend this condo and Rene and Karin as host. If we come back to Ixtapa, we will not look to stay anywhere else!
Rene and Karin's place was not just a lovely home for rent, but also an exclusive tropical resort experience. Prior to arrival Rene communicated with me by phone and e-mail and Karin also by e-mail with some choices for menu selections to be cooked by their housekeeper/cook, Ari. We were picked up at the airport in their car by Roberto, a delightful staff member of Punta Ixtapa and taken immediately to the condo.
Let me first tell you that we are frequent renters of vacation rentals, and this was by far one of the, if not, the best place we've stayed. To get to the condo you walk up a lovely curved staircase, and then enter into a grand entry hallway complete with a bench and lighted art niche display with wing sculptures. You then enter a separate and lockable door into another large hallway with a pretty metal sculpture in another niche leading to three of the four bedrooms with bathrooms, two with king beds and extra twin bed, and one with three twin beds. The two king rooms share a large porch with lovely views and two hammocks for relaxing. The upstairs is accessed by another curved staircase with beautiful underwater photographs we learned were taken by Karin's brother, a professional underwater photographer (many of his photos are nicely displayed throughout the home.) Upstairs is a large comfortable open room with living area with built-in seating and a t.v. and dining area with a large table. Past the dining area you enter the well-stocked kitchen through swinging doors. There is also a laundry room behind the kitchen. At the top of the stairs there is another bedroom with two twin beds and a bunk bed and another bath serving the upstairs. The large porch has an infinity edged pool, outdoor lounging couches, and a comfortable al fresco dining table. The condo was very comfortable for the two of us, and could comfortably accommodate several more couples or family members.
Ari is a very good cook of local regional fare, and cleaned our room and made our bed daily. Although she does not speak English we communicated with our limited Spanish and notes, lots of smiles and laughter.
The resort, Punta Ixtapa, is, in itself, a destination. We were pleasantly surprised to find that you could hear the ocean at night and that it was a short walk from the condo through a palm lined paved trail to the private beach with a beach club with two pools, a bar, and a restaurant. The tropical foliage is beautiful and you find all of the plants we have as houseplants in the US, including poinsettias, ti plants, philodendrums, elephant ear plants, maidenhair ferns, and palm trees. We walked and biked using the condo bikes throughout the resort going to three private beaches and a public one shared with Club Med. The workout room is amazing- right on the beach! We swam in the warm ocean every day. An amazing vacation!
Mejor imposible, René es un súper anfitrión, todo en su lugar, Súper limpio, muy buena comunicación.
Rene was an amazing host; extremely accommodating and responded quickly to all messages. We were in touch throughout the stay! His condo is beautiful with stunning views, the car helped us going to playa quieta with the whole family and made it very convenient for us. There were bicycles and canoes for us to use as well. The two helpers that were with us throughout our stay were friendly and cooked us delicious meals breakfast through dinner! Ari's peacado a la veracruzana was so good as well as her sopes for breakfast. I highly recommend staying at Rene's luxury condo!! The service was exceptional, the condo was very comfortable and I appreciate all that Rene did for us. Thank you for hosting my whole family and I!!
This condo and the private club and beach are amazing. You must come here! We were picked up by Lesbia at the airport, she took us in and showed us everything about the property. Rene arranged a cook for the entire week for only $30 per day. She was wonderful. Ask for Arinel. She made awesome fresh meals and would shop each night for anything we wanted to eat the next day. The condo is clean, enormous, and beautiful. The beach club has a wait staff who will bring you great poolside food. The beach was empty except for our family. An amazing private experience.
About the Host, Rene
Karin is a real state broker and I am IT businessman. Both Mexicans. We really love to travel and do it as much as we can. Specially we enjoy getting to know a city on a bicycle; perfect speed and freedom! We also like doing sport activities like running, windsurf, tenis, squash (ups that sounds old), water and snow ski, ... and even ping pong!

Safavieh's Bohemian Collection is all-organic, with exquisitely fine jute pile woven onto a cotton warp and weft, and an earthy natural color palette. The high quality jute chosen for our Bohemian rugs is biodegradable and recyclable, with an innate sheen because it is harvested only from Cannabis Sativa (commonly known as the "true hemp" plant), a quickly renewable resource that excels in length, durability, anti-mildew and antimicrobial properties. Safavieh brings fashion excitement to the eco-friendly rug category with the Bohemian collection's unique patterns, ribbed textures and remarkable hand. The rugs are washed to soften the yarn, and then brushed to an even more lustrous sheen. Hand Knotted in India.

Great value for your money.... Gail from Phoenix, MD on 04/23/2015 – Verified Buyer
This rug is thick, has a natural fiber feel to it. & I think it looks great. Color is true to computer screen. My husband said he's not sure he likes it cause it reminds him of a dried brown grass mat, but I think that's the natural beauty of it. Pros: True to color, nice and thick & wide for a hallway. Cons: Edges are thick, you need to step onto this rug, can't be dragging your feet or you'll trip
