Little childI stand in a field, as a child,Little child3 years ago in Songs & Lyrics More Like This
A simple flower, i hold in my palm,
A symbol of how easily something can be crushed or blown away,
Nurture this beauty and sigh away my pains,
A lotus, the soul of my love,
I hold in my hand.
As i contemplated these thoughts,
A Angel made itself known, walking in, with no halo or holy father,
Suddenly i felt insecure and stupid,
A boy in love with a flower.
It approached me and took my hands in its palms gently,
An angel maybe but a woman i was sure,
She possessed soft hands like small pieces of stroking silk,
Encasing my hands so they formed like fists.
A panic, i fell into fear as i began to crush my love, my flower,
Anxiety and pain, my heart began to cry and so did i,
She smiled and opened my hands palm up to show me,
The flower was still there and as perfect as uncrushed.
I awoke from this dream, a man,
I realized the flower was my love and my hands the rest of the world,
The hands are unable to crush what i love,
Love is something more, something u

I can make you cry without shedding a tear.
I will make you scream in horror, but I have no fear.
I can make you run without even moving.
I am the master while you are only the student.
I am the royalty on the throne while you bow down.
I am still deadly, without a heart.
I am the darkness that surrounds you, light.
I am lifeless, while you are lively.
I feed off of the anger and sorrow that escapes your grasp.
I am the one hiding in the night.
The shadows that follow you.

just to feel the pain.
I pressed the blade so deep,
the blood fell like rain
I watched it flowing fast,
down onto the floor.
My life started draining,
untill of me there was no more.
I awoke into darkness,
with pain inside my chest.
There sitting beside me
were those who failed the test.
What have I done for this!?
I cried out in shame.
whispering from beside me said
there was only me to blame.
now I am lost to the night,
of which I will never rise.
and whispers in my heart,
all the lost souls cries.

"what's the difference between you and I,"

Blueberry PancakesLast night had been very nice and today was starting out to be beautiful.Blueberry Pancakes4 years ago in Flash Fiction & Vignettes More Like This
Birds were singing in my garden and the morning sun shown through the kitchen window lighting my small antique table.
It had been Grandmothers once and was currently adorned with a pink tablecloth with matching white and pink dishes. A single pink rose decorated the center and I think she would have appreciated the arrangement.
My little pink apron matched as well and kept things neat and protected as I moved about the small but charming kitchen.
As he sat down with his morning coffee cup I glanced over and frowned. The dark colored, well used mug clashed with both the décor and my senses.
In solution I simply poured him a fresh cup in the proper colored mug, traded it for the chipped one and set about finishing his breakfast.
Scrambled eggs with pepper flakes, fresh peaches and homemade blueberry pancakes.

- This meeting of the Inter-Federation Armed Forces is in session, as of now. Boccioni said. Even though she was a First Fleeter, she out-ranked everybody in the room, given that her only two superiors were the Fleet Admiral of Starfleet and the C in C of the Federation. The slight buzz of chatter that filled the room ended abruptly. The time for being official has begun.

Revolutions in EnergyOur current major sources of energy are expensive, spew large quantities of greenhouse gases, heavy metals, and other waste into the atmosphere, and rely on reserves of fuels that are growing harder and harder to obtain. Wind and solar power are expensive to install, high maintenance, require a large amount of area, and only provide power when the wind blows or the sun shines--the rest of the time, they have to either switch over to a fossil fuel backup, or have stored enough energy in batteries to last.Revolutions in Energy4 months ago in Editorial More Like This
We need power sources that can provide more energy per unit of cost and area than current systems, and do so continuously--all day, all night, wind or no. A source of energy that is more economical will be adopted by necessity, and because it works better.
This source of economical, powerful, clean, abundant energy is not unattainable fantasy, nor decades down the line--it is real, today. It is nuclear.
Nuclear power is an incredible paradigm shift--an atom breaking apart through nucle

Love, Madness is well mad. Sometimes it comes on slowly, devolving over many of years. Other times it's triggered by a certain event, such as a tragedy. Madness is never really predictable, never really certain. But one thing is for certain, true madness, the kind that often swallows a person entirely, is not only a state of mind, but a state of being as well.
Madness is an evil thing. It can trap you inside your own mind. You can't talk, can't move, can't do much of anything. The voices in your head, they take control. They tell you things you normally would know to be false. But you aren't normally anymore or you dear? No, your forever changed by this curse.
You try to tell them of all the things you see, the things that plague your existence, your dreams, turning life into a living nightmare. But they don't listen to you. They disregard you as nothing but a hopeless case, a nuisance at best. And the creatures always come at night. When the lights are gone

Ancient R'lyeh rose to the top,
A city where Euclidian geometries stop.
A curve a, a loop, a swirly doo,
They twist and turn and corkscrew.
The star-spawn caper and chortle with glee
As the stars 'are right' at apogee
Father Dagon plays on his flute,
Retaining sanity; the point is moot.
Old Yog-Sothoth is bored and wasting time,
As feelers emerge from dimension one-seventy-nine.
The race of Yith is studying you,
All your knowledge they wish to accrue.
Far more pleasant than a deep one breeding pool.
The Fungi of Yuggoth are from afar
They'd like to borrow your brain in a jar.
The Elder Things shuffle along,
While Shoggoths whistle to their song.
And Pickman paints ghoulish throngs
Brown Jenkins twitters with glee,
Can you pay old Keziah's fee?
Hurry now, Kadath awaits,
What shall become of your fate?

Ark made a noise as the horde rushed at them, pulling Ellis to his feet, the mechanic gagging from all of the water and smells. " This stinks!" Ellis commented, spitting some water out and hefting his tire iron, prepared to fight for his life as the horde lunged for them. Ark could have sworn that the horde wasn't nearly as big from when he saw it from on top of the ledge, but all things looked small from a distance anyways. Ellis let out a cry as he was pulled into the murky water by a common infected, Ark growling under his breath before trying to reach the mechanic.
It was his fault for dragging Ellis outside and down the slope, and the others would kill him if something as simple as a horde managed to kill Ellis. He doubted the other man would go down that easy, but better safe than sorry. Finding Ellis in the crowd, swinging his tire iron like it was an extension of his arm, Ark had to duck once to avoid getting hit.

Nope, I dont own the Akatsuki. Just the kidnap-e.
I went to bed that night.
I wasnt falling asleep easily. I was wondering about whether I had parents or not.
I turned to my window. I nearly jolted out of bed.
I poked one eye through the shades. There was a figure about my size standing before my window. When my eyes adjusted I saw it was a boy. He looked about my age. He had long blonde hair, with bangs covering his left eye, and a ponytail holding part of the rest of his hair.
Apparently he hadnt seen me because he kept knocking on my window. Finally I pulled my shades up. He was shocked at first. Then he motioned for me to open my window. I hesitated, then finally thought, What was the worst thing that could happen? so I did it. I only pulled my window about an inch up. Im sure he would have pulled it more but there was a bug screen in bet

Deidara looked too innocent for Itachis liking. He burst into the room and began to root through all the drawers.

Dont open that one! Deidara yelled. It was too late for Itachi. In a burst of sizzling smoke and flame, the drawer blew up and singed a good part of Itachis ponytail off.
Eeeek! Itachi felt his hair frantically. How much is burned? Tell me! He shoved his ponytail into Deidaras face.
Deidara turned away and frowned. Im not going to tell you anything. Those were my favorite clay creations, and you detonated them.

Where the healing beginsWhere the healing begins5 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
It was golden,
Like a drop of those rays.
Washing over me.
You said You love me.
And I believed it from the start.
I allowed doubt and pain
To rock my world.
Allowed it to shake my core,
And it started to shape me.
I built these walls so high,
Around this frail heart.
But I soon learned this wall
was made out of glass, and not stone.
So when You touched it,
It crashed to the ground.
These walls crumbled with Your love,
Freeing this caged heart
which You led out of the dark,
and into Your light.
That's when the healing begins.

It's such a vivid memory.
Since then, we've made many more.

Through good times and bad,

We've shared laughter and tears, hardships and triumphs.
Thinking back I think

I remember when we met.
Did you realize we would become so close?
Did I realize our relationship would grow?
I really can't say.
But what matters is the bond we share now.
You really are incredible.
You see through my flaws to the beauty within

It's nice to know that someone cares.
You're my trusted confident and counselor.
I know I can always come to you.
I can share all my secrets, and they're safe with you.
You always seem to know the right thing to say.

Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) is continuing to look for more ways to be competitive and its latest product, multiple user profiles on a single subscription, is being tested.
In an article by Digital Spy, Netflix's Todd Yellin, vice president of product innovation, spoke about the company's latest project with the publication. He said the efforts come as the company tries to acknowledge its 33 million members (including the UK's one million) as individuals.
What this means is, Yellin and San Francisco-based team, are trying to give individual homepages derived from a subscriber's personal tastes and interests. Interested in a dark dramas? That's what will show up on your homepage. But if you prefer something such as Spongebob SquarePants, then you may not know it is offered by Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX).
To achieve more individuality, the team is currently testing multi-user profiles from single subscriptions, which has been desired by Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) households for some time.
Yellin said to DigitalSpy, "What we have heard for a long time, from a product side, is that, 'sure, you are personalizing what I want, but it is actually what my household wants. You are treating us like one being'."
"We have been aware of that for a long time, but the problem is that if you want to make something frictionless and brain dead, but also give more features, there has to be a balance and you don't want feature creep and complexity."
For now only a small portion of Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) users are testing the new feature--less than 1 percent of its global subscribers. The testing started in December and will run through mid-March.
To participate, the group has a drop-down bar in the top right-hand corner of the screen that exhibits an individual's top tens and recommendations for numerous people.
With positive feedback by the participants, the team may globally launch the product at year's end; this will include a small U.K. percentage.
Yellin said of the current results, "Early data is looking positive but we are not sure yet. [But] if it works, then we are going to productise it, which means we are going to roll it out in a scalable way that works with our over 33m members globally."
"If everything goes to plan and this test comes out in the green, as we call it, then you'll see this in the UK and globally by the end of the year.
"I am not sure if it will work. Why wouldn't it work? Because it adds more complexity, but it also adds value. And it's about weighing up the equation."

JOSEPH DElAnEY
Joseph Delaney is a full time writer living in Lancashire, in the heart of Boggart territory. He is the author of the Wardstone Chronicles a thirteen book series that concluded in 2013 and A New Darkness, the first book in the next series The Starblade Chronicles which was released in June 2014. His tales about the Spook and his apprentice Tom Ward are very much inspired by Lancashire folklore and landscape although the books refer only to the County.
Boggarts and witches are the main routine enemies of the Spook and his apprentice, Tom. But the Devil also features in many Lancashire Folk Tales and has entered the Spook's Series too, mainly referred to as the Fiend. He is the dark personified, the adversary that Tom was born to fight; a deadly struggle that began in 'The Spook's Battle' (published in June 2007) and will probably continue until the last book in the series.
He first got the idea for the series when he moved to the village where he lives now and discovered there was a local boggart - 'a man like me needs boggarts around'. He made a note in his notebook 'a story about a man who hunts boggarts' and years later developed this into 'The Spook's Apprentice', the first book in the series.
The first series has been translated into 24 languages and the first book in The Wardstone Chronicles, The Last Apprentice inspired a major motion picture, Seventh Son which opens in the US on February 6th 2015 and the UK in March 26th 2015. Directed by Sergei Bodrov it stars Jeff Bridges, Julianne Moore, Ben Barnes and Alicia Vikander.

With the sun trying hard to come out the first official session of the Arena 13 tour started to a captivated audience of years 3, 5 and 7 at Holy trinity primary school. They had previously been visited by Spook Johnson so they were all familiar with the books. I didn't want to scare them too much so I left Arena 13 out of my talk. Again there were interesting questions so my publicist recorded some of my answers, which I have used to create an FAQ at the end of this blog..........

I signed 1000 of these a few weeks ago but I also have two signings coming up - both stores in Lancaster on the 13th and then in Carlisle on the 20th. Click Here
My Name Is Kwin I stare at the face in the mirror and mouth the command that begins the ritual: 'Paint it black!' The girl in the mirror obeys immediately, her right hand tracing the contours of her top lip with swift, precise strokes. It is time for the second command. 'Paint it red!' Once more the hand obeys, this time painting her bottom lip the rich red colour of arterial blood. I smile, and she smiles back at me. But we shouldn't be smiling, should we? So we twist our features into a suitable scowl. Now she looks fierce. She is someone to be reckoned with. Her dark hair is longer on one side, reaching down to her jaw; on the other it barely reaches her eyebrow, so the scar 308 309 is clearly visible: a thin diagonal line that extends from just below her left eye to her mouth.
I will be on tour for the three weeks as from June 15th, visiting schools in Lancashire, Kent and around Manchester.

ALEXANDRIA, Va. - Sept. 11 conspirator Zacarias Moussaoui was sentenced Thursday to spend his life in the nation's strictest prison.
Capping four years of legal maneuvering and a two-month trial, U.S. District Judge Leonie Brinkema sentenced Moussaoui to six life sentences, likely to be served at a supermaximum-security facility in Florence, Colo.
Putting aside the abusive epithets and clownish comments he became known for, Moussaoui sought to offer a sober explanation of his hatred for the United States, and chastised America for refusing to listen.
Moussaoui directed what may be his last public words to three relatives of victims killed on Sept. 11, 2001 - relatives who moments before stood in court, faced Moussaoui and described loved ones lost the day four hijacked jetliners crashed into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and a Pennsylvania field.
He said Americans feel only their own pain and wondered if they would ever consider "how many people the CIA has destroyed." He called the trial "a wasted opportunity for this country to understand ... why people like me, like Mohamed Atta and the rest have so much hatred for you."
Moments later, Brinkema refused to be interrupted by Moussaoui as she disputed his declaration Wednesday that "America, you lost. ... I won."
She told Moussaoui that after the proceeding everyone else in the room would be "free to go any place they want. They can go outside and they can feel the sun ... smell the fresh air ... hear the birds. They can eat what they want tonight. They can associate with whom they want."
She went on: "You will spend the rest of your life in a supermaximum-security prison. ... It's quite clear who won ... and who lost."
A day earlier, the nine male and three female jurors could not unanimously agree to the government's demand for Moussaoui's execution.
They could not unanimously agree that Moussaoui, who was in jail in Minnesota on immigration charges, caused the nearly 3,000 deaths that day, and three believed he had only limited knowledge of the Sept. 11 plot - despite his dramatic courtroom testimony that he was to hijack a 747 jetliner that day and fly it into the White House.
And despite graphic images and sounds of the carnage and pain of Sept. 11 put into evidence, the jurors rejected the government's contentions that Moussaoui himself acted "in an especially heinous, cruel or depraved manner."
Their inability to agree unanimously on death automatically produced the sentences of life in prison.
Last month, the same jury ruled Moussaoui eligible for the death penalty after prosecutors argued that his lies to federal agents in August 2001 kept them from identifying and stopping some Sept. 11 hijackers, and avoiding at least one death that day.
Earlier, Lisa Dolan, who lost her husband, Bob, in the attack on the Pentagon, was one of three family members of victims who spoke at sentencing. Looking directly at Moussaoui, she said, "There is still one final judgment day."
Moussaoui sat in his chair staring at Dolan and the other family witnesses, Rosemary Dillard and Abraham Scott, betraying no emotion.
When his turn came, Moussaoui put aside prepared remarks to respond to them, referring first to Dillard, who spoke of losing her husband, Eddie, at the Pentagon. "She said I destroyed her life and she lost her husband," Moussaoui said. "Maybe one day she can think about how many people the CIA has destroyed. ... You have an amount of hypocrisy which is beyond any belief. Your humanity is a very selective humanity. Only you suffer; only you feel."
Prosecutor Rob Spencer objected, saying Moussaoui was giving a political speech. Brinkema agreed and told him to discuss the appropriate sentence.
"You have branded me as a terrorist or criminal," Moussaoui continued. "You should look about yourself first. I fight for my belief." Then, having spoken for less than five minutes, he wrapped up: "You don't want to hear the truth."
Outside the courthouse later, Scott, who lost his wife, Janice Marie, at the Pentagon, said, "It was extremely hard listening to him and not jumping over that little fence and doing bodily harm to him" at various points in the trial.
In France, Moussaoui's mother, Aicha El Wafi, said: "Now he is going to die in little doses. He is going to live like a rat in a hole. What for? They are so cruel."
French authorities said Thursday that they may eventually press the United States to have Moussaoui serve his life sentence in France under agreements providing for transfer of convicts.
Brinkema told Moussaoui he cannot appeal his guilty plea but could appeal the sentence. She predicted "it would be an act of futility" but asked his attorneys to file the appeal notice as a precaution and as their last act before relinquishing their court-appointed duty to represent him.

text: Editor's picks http://www.biomedcentral.com/bmcbiol/ The editor's pick of recent articles published by BMC Biology 2015-10-05T12:00:00Z Archaeal ancestors of eukaryotes: not so elusive any more The origin of eukaryotes is one of the hardest problems in evolutionary biology and sometimes raises the ominous specter of irreducible complexity. Reconstruction of the gene repertoire of the last eukaryotic common ancestor (LECA) has revealed a highly complex organism with a variety of advanced features but no detectable evolutionary intermediates to explain their origin. Recently, however, genome analysis of diverse archaea led to the discovery of apparent ancestral versions of several signature eukaryotic systems, such as the actin cytoskeleton and the ubiquitin network, that are scattered among archaea. These findings inspired the hypothesis that the archaeal ancestor of eukaryotes was an unusually complex form with an elaborate intracellular organization. The latest striking discovery made by deep metagenomic sequencing vindicates this hypothesis by showing that in phylogenetic trees eukaryotes fall within a newly identified archaeal group, the Lokiarchaeota, which combine several eukaryotic signatures previously identified in different archaea. The discovery of complex archaea that are the closest living relatives of eukaryotes is most compatible with the symbiogenetic scenario for eukaryogenesis. http://www.biomedcentral.com/1741-7007/13/84 Eugene Koonin BMC Biology 2015, 13:84 2015-10-05T12:00:00Z 10.1186/s12915-015-0194-5 Lokiarchaea and the missing link The great problem with the evolutionary origin of eukaryotes is the absence of intermediates. Eugene Koonin sets the recent startling discovery of the Lokiarchaea in the context of the complex issues arising in the attempt to fill the gap between bacteria and modern eukaryotes. /content/figures/s12915-015-0194-5-toc.gif BMC Biology 1741-7007 13 84 2015-10-05T12:00:00Z XML Drosophila innate immunity: regional and functional specialization of prophenoloxidases Background: The diversification of immune systems during evolution involves the expansion of particular gene families in given phyla. A better understanding of the metazoan immune system requires an analysis of the logic underlying such immune gene amplification. This analysis is now within reach due to the ease with which we can generate multiple mutations in an organism. In this paper, we analyze the contribution of the three Drosophila prophenoloxidases (PPOs) to host defense by generating single, double and triple mutants. PPOs are enzymes that catalyze the production of melanin at the site of infection and around parasites. They are the rate-limiting enzymes that contribute to the melanization reaction, a major immune mechanism of arthropods. The number of PPO-encoding genes is variable among insects, ranging from one in the bee to ten in the mosquito. Results: By analyzing mutations alone and in combination, we ascribe a specific function to each of the three PPOs of Drosophila. Our study confirms that two PPOs produced by crystal cells, PPO1 and PPO2, contribute to the bulk of melanization in the hemolymph, upon septic or clean injury. In contrast, PPO3, a PPO restricted to the D. melanogaster group, is expressed in lamellocytes and contributes to melanization during the encapsulation process. Interestingly, another overlapping set of PPOs, PPO2 and PPO3, achieve melanization of the capsule upon parasitoid wasp infection. Conclusions: The use of single or combined mutations allowed us to show that each PPO mutant has a specific phenotype, and that knocking out two of three genes is required to abolish fully a particular function. Thus, Drosophila PPOs have partially overlapping functions to optimize melanization in at least two conditions: following injury or during encapsulation. Since PPO3 is restricted to the D. melanogaster group, this suggests that production of PPO by lamellocytes emerged as a recent defense mechanism against parasitoid wasps. We conclude that differences in spatial localization, immediate or late availability, and mode of activation underlie the functional diversification of the three Drosophila PPOs, with each of them having non-redundant but overlapping functions. http://www.biomedcentral.com/1741-7007/13/81 Jan Dudzic Shu Kondo Ryu Ueda Casey Bergman Bruno Lemaitre BMC Biology 2015, 13:81 2015-10-01T12:00:00Z 10.1186/s12915-015-0193-6 The third enzyme Nowhere is the evolution of protein diversity faster than in immunity. Insect innate immunity has benefited from a proliferation of phenol oxidases, most recently in fruitflies, Bruno Lemaitre and colleague suggest, with the appearance of PO3 response to selective pressure from parasitic wasps. /content/figures/s12915-015-0193-6-toc.gif BMC Biology 1741-7007 13 81 2015-10-01T12:00:00Z XML Using mathematical models to understand metabolism, genes, and disease Mathematical models are a useful tool for investigating a large number of questions in metabolism, genetics, and gene–environment interactions. A model based on the underlying biology and biochemistry is a platform for in silico biological experimentation that can reveal the causal chain of events that connect variation in one quantity to variation in another. We discuss how we construct such models, how we have used them to investigate homeostatic mechanisms, gene–environment interactions, and genotype–phenotype mapping, and how they can be used in precision and personalized medicine. http://www.biomedcentral.com/1741-7007/13/79 H.

All these functions are likely to be modulated by the sleep/wake cycle, because brain metabolism, neuronal activity and synaptic turnover change as a function of behavioral state. Yet, little is known about the effects of sleep and wake on astrocytes. Results: Here we show that sleep and wake strongly affect both astrocytic gene expression and ultrastructure in the mouse brain. Using translating ribosome affinity purification technology and microarrays, we find that 1.4 % of all astrocytic transcripts in the forebrain are dependent on state (three groups, sleep, wake, short sleep deprivation; six mice per group). Sleep upregulates a few select genes, like Cirp and Uba1, whereas wake upregulates many genes related to metabolism, the extracellular matrix and cytoskeleton, including Trio, Synj2 and Gem, which are involved in the elongation of peripheral astrocytic processes. Using serial block face scanning electron microscopy (three groups, sleep, short sleep deprivation, chronic sleep restriction; three mice per group, >100 spines per mouse, 3D), we find that a few hours of wake are sufficient to bring astrocytic processes closer to the synaptic cleft, while chronic sleep restriction also extends the overall astrocytic coverage of the synapse, including at the axon–spine interface, and increases the available astrocytic surface in the neuropil. Conclusions: Wake-related changes likely reflect an increased need for glutamate clearance, and are consistent with an overall increase in synaptic strength when sleep is prevented. The reduced astrocytic coverage during sleep, instead, may favor glutamate spillover, thus promoting neuronal synchronization during non-rapid eye movement sleep. http://www.biomedcentral.com/1741-7007/13/66 Michele Bellesi Luisa de Vivo Giulio Tononi Chiara Cirelli BMC Biology 2015, 13:66 2015-08-25T12:00:00Z 10.1186/s12915-015-0176-7 Astrocytes in the sleeping and awake brain Does the state of the brain - whether asleep, awake, or sleep-deprived - affect astrocytes (or vice versa)?

RIG-I and MDA5 detect virus-specific RNA motifs with short 5′-tri/diphosphorylated, blunt-end double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) and >0.5–2 kb long dsRNA as canonical agonists, respectively. However, in vitro, they can bind to many RNA species, while in cells there is an activation threshold. As SF2 helicase/ATPase family members, ATP hydrolysis is dependent on co-operative RNA and ATP binding. Whereas simultaneous ATP and cognate RNA binding is sufficient to activate RIG-I by releasing autoinhibition of the signaling domains, the physiological role of the ATPase activity of RIG-I and MDA5 remains controversial. Results: A cross-analysis of a rationally designed panel of RNA binding and ATPase mutants and truncated receptors, using type I IFN promoter activation as readout, allows us to refine our understanding of the structure-function relationships of RIG-I and MDA5. RNA activation of RIG-I depends on multiple critical RNA binding sites in its helicase domain as confirmed by functional evidence using novel mutations. We found that RIG-I or MDA5 mutants with low ATP hydrolysis activity exhibit constitutive activity but this was fully reverted when associated with mutations preventing RNA binding to the helicase domain. We propose that the turnover kinetics of the ATPase domain enables the discrimination of self/non-self RNA by both RIG-I and MDA5. Non-cognate, possibly self, RNA binding would lead to fast ATP turnover and RNA disassociation and thus insufficient time for the caspase activation and recruitment domains (CARDs) to promote downstream signaling, whereas tighter cognate RNA binding provides a longer time window for downstream events to be engaged. Conclusions: The exquisite fine-tuning of RIG-I and MDA5 RNA-dependent ATPase activity coupled to CARD release allows a robust IFN response from a minor subset of non-self RNAs within a sea of cellular self RNAs. This avoids the eventuality of deleterious autoimmunity effects as have been recently described to arise from natural gain-of-function alleles of RIG-I and MDA5. http://www.biomedcentral.com/1741-7007/13/54 Jade Louber Joanna Brunel Emiko Uchikawa Stephen Cusack Denis Gerlier BMC Biology 2015, 13:54 2015-07-28T12:00:00Z 10.1186/s12915-015-0166-9 Innate  immunity to viruses – how to recognize your enemy The production of interferons that provide the first line of defence against viruses is activated by elaborate little cytoplasmic machines containing ATP-driven helicases that can distinguish viral double-stranded RNA from double-stranded RNA segments of host origin.

For transgenic crops expressing insecticidal proteins from the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis ('Bt crops') emergence of resistance is slowed by maintaining a proportion of the crop as non-Bt varieties, which produce pest insects unselected for resistance. While this strategy has been largely successful, multiple cases of Bt resistance have now been reported.One new approach to pest management is the use of genetically engineered insects to suppress populations of their own species. Models suggest that released insects carrying male-selecting (MS) transgenes would be effective agents of direct, species-specific pest management by preventing survival of female progeny, and simultaneously provide an alternative insecticide resistance management strategy by introgression of susceptibility alleles into target populations. We developed a MS strain of the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella, a serious global pest of crucifers. MS-strain larvae are reared as normal with dietary tetracycline, but, when reared without tetracycline or on host plants, only males will survive to adulthood. We used this strain in glasshouse-cages to study the effect of MS male P. xylostella releases on target pest population size and spread of Bt resistance in these populations. Results: Introductions of MS-engineered P. xylostella males into wild-type populations led to rapid pest population decline, and then elimination. In separate experiments on broccoli plants, relatively low-level releases of MS males in combination with broccoli expressing Cry1Ac (Bt broccoli) suppressed population growth and delayed the spread of Bt resistance. Higher rates of MS male releases in the absence of Bt broccoli were also able to suppress P. xylostella populations, whereas either low-level MS male releases or Bt broccoli alone did not. Conclusions: These results support theoretical modeling, indicating that MS-engineered insects can provide a powerful pest population suppressing effect, and could effectively augment current Bt resistance management strategies. We conclude that, subject to field confirmation, MS insects offer an effective and versatile control option against P. xylostella and potentially other pests, and may reduce reliance on and protect insecticide-based approaches, including Bt crops. http://www.biomedcentral.com/1741-7007/13/49 Tim Harvey-Samuel Neil Morrison Adam Walker Thea Marubbi Ju Yao Hilda Collins Kevin Gorman T.

Mutations of Apc will not only lead to familial adenomatous polyposis with associated epithelial lesions, but will also cause aggressive fibromatosis in mesenchymal cells. However, the roles of Apc in regulating mesenchymal cell biology and organogenesis during development are unknown. Results: We have specifically deleted the Apc gene in lung mesenchymal cells during early lung development in mice. Loss of Apc function resulted in immediate mesenchymal cell hyperproliferation through abnormal activation of Wnt/Ctnnb1, followed by a subsequent inhibition of cell proliferation due to cell cycle arrest at G0/G1, which was caused by a mechanism independent of Wnt/Ctnnb1. Meanwhile, abrogation of Apc also disrupted lung mesenchymal cell differentiation, including decreased airway and vascular smooth muscle cells, the presence of Sox9-positive mesenchymal cells in the peripheral lung, and excessive versican production. Moreover, lung epithelial branching morphogenesis was drastically inhibited due to disrupted Bmp4-Fgf10 morphogen production and regulation in surrounding lung mesenchyme. Lastly, lung mesenchyme-specific Apc conditional knockout also resulted in altered lung vasculogenesis and disrupted pulmonary vascular continuity through a paracrine mechanism, leading to massive pulmonary hemorrhage and lethality at mid-gestation when the pulmonary circulation should have started. Conclusions: Our study suggests that Apc in lung mesenchyme plays central roles in coordinating the proper development of several quite different cellular compartments including lung epithelial branching and pulmonary vascular circulation during lung organogenesis. http://www.biomedcentral.com/1741-7007/13/42 Yongfeng Luo Elie El Agha Gianluca Turcatel Hui Chen Joanne Chiu David Warburton Saverio Bellusci Bang-Ping Qian Douglas Menke Wei Shi BMC Biology 2015, 13:42 2015-06-20T12:00:00Z 10.1186/s12915-015-0153-1 Branching out in lung development The tumour suppressor APC plays a critical role in cancer growth, largely through its negative regulation of the Wnt pathway.

We generated this resource by whole genome sequencing (WGS) of monkeys from the Vervet Research Colony (VRC), an NIH-supported research resource for which extensive phenotypic data are available. Results: We identified genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) by WGS of 721 members of an extended pedigree from the VRC. From high-depth WGS data we identified more than 4 million polymorphic unequivocal segregating sites; by pruning these SNPs based on heterozygosity, quality control filters, and the degree of linkage disequilibrium (LD) between SNPs, we constructed genome-wide panels suitable for genetic association (about 500,000 SNPs) and linkage analysis (about 150,000 SNPs). To further enhance the utility of these resources for linkage analysis, we used a further pruned subset of the linkage panel to generate multipoint identity by descent matrices.

Students News
The University of the Cordilleras debating team proved more convincing than their counterparts from the University of Baguio to win the concluding match in last week's "Debate sa Bombo" held at the function hall of the King's College of the Philippines in La Trinidad.
TUBA, Benguet - At least 500 tree seedlings were planted by the National Service Training Program students of the University of the Cordilleras and their coordinators at the surroundings of the catch water basin of the Baguio Water District in Kabuyao, Sto. Tomas, Tuba, last weekend.
In the delivery of Information Technology (IT) courses today, the learner is given a distinct advantage if the course content matches the requirements of local and international industries.
Mathematics is a subject that is challenging enough to teach or learn in any level with unimpaired physical faculties. But what if the sense of sight is taken out?
History tells us of seafarers that peopled the Philippines during pre-Hispanic times using a vessel called "balangay," the basis for the term "barangay" the Philippines' smallest political unit.
Summer fun, is learning fun... Because learning is all year round.
Wilmark Ramos of the College of Business Administration and Joey Simeon of the College of Teacher Education are proclaimed part of the final 10 students to represent CAR for the National Finals for the Ten Outstanding Students of the Philippines (TOSP) search.
Prevention is better than cure. It is for this reason that the country's top Criminology school, the University of the Cordilleras, formerly Baguio Colleges Foundation (UC-BCF) educates its students to escape from harm and to protect themselves when needed.
Winners were already known right after the last vote was cast during an automated election at the University of the Cordilleras (UC-BCF).

Please read below for install info and requirements.
• Supreme Commander 2
Update Info
Make sure you remove all the mods in the previous version of the Mod Manager before opening the updated version.
• Requires .NET 4.0
Change Log
Version 1.02
• Added an MD5 Hash generated from loaded mods (and their versions)
• LongDesc accepts plaintext files
• Desc folder check is skipped if the mod being examined has no LongDesc
• Version is now numeric only
• ReqModVer is now an optional field, expects the $Version for the required mod to be equal to or greater than the one listed here before loading
• Numerous changes to the settings menu and file to facilitate updates (v1.0 will still require a clean install)
• ConflictMod field, adding an ID to this prevents them from being enabled simultaneously.
Version 0.9
• Added $ModURL to mod.cfg, this accepts a GPG Forum thread ID for linking to mod release threads.
• Added $ReqModID & $ReqModName to mod.cfg, accepts mod $IDs and names that this mod requires to be enabled.
• Added $Patch to mod.cfg, allows for incremental updates to mods in the library (used for mods with multiple .scd files, allows them to be updated individually.)
• Allows users to specify SC2 install folder in settings. (Not well tested!)
• Assorted tweaks and improvements to the back-end framework.
Version 0.8

• Content previewer (.bp reader)
Bugs and Problems
Please PM CerusVI the Creator of the manager
PROGRESS! ♪♪♫♪♫♫♪ xD
pls help me, it sais that the file has wrong format, and i cant launch it, pls help!
More detail? PM me with the error message if you can.
When i attempt to load a .scd file into the manger it gives me an error message,,,, "Invalid or missing configuration file
Open the .scd file (using 7-zip or similar), is there a mod.cfg file in there? If no, it's not a mod manager compatible file, if yes, copy the contents to pastebin or something and link it.
Mine it says access to the path is denide
hey is .net framework completely safe?
yes, many things need it.
Is there one for Mac?
when ever i try to download it it says no mirrors available?
this happens for all you downloads
dont worry suddenly started working must have been a glitch on moddb's side
it says(acsass to the path"tmp/'file name'"is denide)
The same with me.Did you fix it?
it says(acsass to the path"tmp/'file name'"is denide)
Be sure that you don't have the .scd file open or tied up in some other program. You might also try moving the SC2MM folder out of the \Program Files\~ directory and see if that helps.
Every time i try to run a mod with the mod manager it gives some kind of error i give up.
And when i press lunch it open the steam store.
sadly the same problem i had. you torrented it. you need to buy the game. luckily it only costs 20 bucks for both the game and the dlc. i bought it and i love it.
i am trying it cant
Guys do u NEED this in order to use Revamp mod? Cuz i have a mac with crossover so i can't open .EXE files. Please comment back or help ._.
Damnit, can't use the mod manager. It's saying that there is something wrong.
It says: An exception that cannot be handled has arisen in your application program. If you click continue this problem will be ignored. If you click Exit the application program will be immediatly shut down.
What is this?
same problem with the supcom 2013 mod
hey why is this thing not working? i hope this mod is abandoned. it needs an update.
i dont mean to be a nuisance, but me and my freinds really need SC2 Mod MAnager to be updated. it does not work. thank you.
pleas reupload
A new mod manager is on it way it will replace this old buggy one.
eta? 2 months?
can you teach me how to open it?
When I try to install the Revamp expansion mod 1.1 with the mod manager v1.02, it gives me a error that the "input string was not in a correct format." :/
same thing, and the author doesnt give a ****, this mod manager is ABSOLUTE CRAP, and its not working for dozens of people.
In Revamp mod foldier open mod.cfg and change version from 1.13 to 113. Same with balance mod. Everything works just fine to me.
really i consider this very unballanced, many structures are just tooo expensives to be worth to use, while untis for the same cost have greater power which isnt right. also it takes horribly long to get to late game, i dislike the idea of having to upgrade everything. i would prefer enginiers fabrics and buildings instantly gain plans of newer units.

This definately did nothing for my lashes. There were a couple strands of lash that looked longer, but the rest looked as if I wasn't wearing any mascara. It doesn't even help with darkening your lashes.

This gives the appearance of longer & thicker lashes (close to looking like semi fake lashes).
The only (big) problem is that it dries fast & makes your eyelashes stick to each other causing spider vein lashes or pointy, uneven lashes. The only way to prevent this is to QUICKLY comb through lashes before the mascara dries (which is pretty darn fast :/ ) so as to separate them. If you are not fast enough, the lashes will be too sticky to comb through (I sometimes use a thin metal pin at this stage if I am desperate).
Not recommended for people who do not have extra time when applying make up.

This product did nothing for me. Didn't hold a curl or give me any length or volume. It was a waste of money for me.

I find this mascara below average. It gives a little more length (not mutch). It tries to give more volume, but it makes my lashes stick together instead.

This is great mascara. It doesn't run, smudge, fade or clump. Probably one of the best drugstore mascaras I've tried. This provides lengthening, but too much volume. All in all I like this mascara and would definitely buy it again. The best part is that you can wear it all day or night without having to worry about wiping the underneath of your eyes. That is a nice feature to have compared to spending $25.00 on Fresh SuperNova's mascara and it smeared all over my face. If you are looking for a simple everyday mascara try this-you won't be disappointed.

Average; good for everyday use, for defining the lashes I have. Pro is it doesn't smudge and give me racoon eyes. The search for a great mascara continues.

I love this mascara. It is the only one that actually makes my lashes longer - almost looks like fake eyelashes - which is what I wanted!

I've tried both high-end department store mascaras and the cheapest you can get at discount/drug stores. I keep coming back to this one because I've found none that are better at giving me the great length that this one does. It stays on and doesn't smear at the end of the day. I do find that after a month or two it starts losing its great lengthening ability, but that's okay as it is so cheap, and for hygiene reasons I like to replace my mascara often. Walgreens, CVS and Ulta often have it BOGO free and Maybelline often has dollar off coupons, or I use the $3.50 off coupon at Ulta so I have gotten this for 2-3 dollars which can't be beat. Give this one a try if you haven't before. Unless or until something better comes along, this is my HG mascara.
