Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks rang in 2014 with the release of their new record, Wig Out at Jagbags. The album's predecessor, 2011's Mirror Traffic, was produced by Beck, whose own new record Morning Phase is out this week. As Stereogum reports, last week Malkmus and co. paid tribute to Beck on stage at Chicago's Lincoln Hall. They covered Sea Change's "The Golden Age" mixed into Midnite Vultures' "Debra" and Pavement's Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain classic "Gold Soundz". Check it out below.

I don't imagine the Calgary Flames are very happy about getting waxed 6-1 by the Edmonton Oilers in Cowtown tonight, but they'd better get used to it because my guess is there's plenty more to come.
Postgame: Trainwreck
Pat Steinberg

An absolutely terrible evening saw the Calgary Flames fall 6-1 to the Edmonton Oilers Tuesday night at the Saddledome, a game that was ran by the visitors from start to finish. Even after scoring the first goal of the hockey game and being fortunate to be even after one period of play, the Flames let their provincial rivals go to town as the Oilers snapped a nine game losing streak to Calgary in the process.

Ahh yes, the old Battle of Alberta thing that has one city snoring. While we have seen one lopsided battle involving the Calgary Flames undergo a mild reversal of fortunes this season (two straight Flames wins over Vancouver), there's nothing saying Calgary's rivalry with Edmonton is primed to do the same thing. The Flames have won nine straight games against the Edmonton Oilers heading into this season's fifth round of battle (7 pm, Sportsnet West and Sportsnet 960).

The wildest and most dangerous of the early rock and rollers, he electrified the world with hit records such as "Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On," "Great Balls of Fire," and "Breathless."

Georgia Seeks Same-Sex Marriage Lawsuit Dismissal
Georgia's attorney general is asking a judge to dismiss a federal lawsuit filed by a gay rights group challenging the state's constitutional ban on same-sex marriages.
Lambda Legal filed the lawsuit in April on behalf of seven people. Attorney General Sam Olens, representing the state registrar, said in a filing Monday that the suit takes away Georgia residents' right to define marriage.
Olens' brief acknowledges a movement in some states to recognize same-sex marriage and public opinion polls that support those changes.
"But judicially imposing such a result now would merely wrest a potentially unifying popular victory from the hands of supporters and replace it instead with the stale conformity of compulsion," the brief says. "This Court should reject Plaintiffs' invitation to disregard controlling precedent, decline to anticipate a future ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court, and dismiss Plaintiffs' claims in their entirety."
A spokesman for Lambda Legal wasn't immediately available to comment Monday.

Geno Smith doesn't think watching tape on Revis is 'necessary'
If I was a rookie quarterback about to start my first game in the NFL against one of the best corners in football, the first thing I would do is study tape of that corner. Especially if it was Darrelle Revis. Geno Smith, named on Wednesday as starting quarterback for the Jets, feels differently.
Smith said he doesn't "think it's necessary" to watch tape on Revis before he goes up against the Buccaneers on Sunday.
"I mean, I don't think it's necessary," Smith said. "Maybe I will, maybe I won't. You pretty much get the idea of what kind of player he is based on his reputation."
Right, I can totally see how you base your offensive attack solely on his reputa-- ... wait, what?
Excuse me while I whip out my "oh my god I need to challenge this statement while simultaneously throwing a red flag" NFL-relevant picture gallery:
Surely Geno can't be serious about that. Darrelle Revis, one of the best defensive players in the game, is going to be hawking his every move in his first NFL game and he's not going to study him?
And not only is Geno not going to study Revis, he's just going to rely on what Mark Sanchez says about Revis? If these quotes hadn't been distributed by the Jets I wouldn't believe this is real life.
"I mean, we all know about Revis," Smith said. "Basically from talking to Mark, talking to our personnel guys around here. If you talk to anyone in this locker room they'll let you know when healthy [Revis is] one of the best if not the best corner in the game. He's the guy you definitely have to pay attention to on the field."
Is Geno joking? He must be joking but apparently he's just not. It's worth noting that Smith said he took upon himself to start watching a bunch of Buccaneers film in preparation for the upcoming Week 1 game. That's a good thing. But one of my biggest concerns would be Revis.
Not sure how this story hasn't gotten more run (maybe actual football is the sideshow for the Jets circus?) but as you can imagine, word of this most ridiculous notion made its way to Revis.
And Revis found the idea of Geno not studying film of the Buccaneers top corner quite amusing.
"I don't understand why [laughing] he didn't study me?" Revis said. "[Laughing more] Because I will be on the opposite side. But I don't know what their gameplan or their preparation is. And personally I don't know what Geno's preparation is but I would hope if you're playing against another opponent you should [laughing once more] study everybody on the opposing team.
"I'm studying him. [still laughing] Just to let him know, I'm studying him."
That's the only reaction you can have, really. You're Darrelle Revis, the best cornerback on the planet, you're playing the team that just traded you, that team is starting a rookie quarterback, that rookie quarterback -- who has access to TONS of Revis film -- just said he isn't studying you.
There's not much else to do other than laugh.

Photo of the Week: Peace and Prosperity in Uganda
September 20, 2013
Joska Aweko is rebuilding her livelihood in northern Uganda after decades of conflict. As we prepare to celebrate Peace Day, Joska's story reminds us that peace pays.
Cotton is helping Joska Aweko build a new home and secure a better future for her family after a long, destructive civil war.
For two decades, the Lord's Resistance Army terrorized the people of northern Uganda. Joska and hundreds of thousands of others were forced from their homes and into government-run camps, where disease, hunger and violence were rampant.
When the conflict abated, Joska, a mother of eight, was one of the first people with the courage to return to her home village of Amilobo. Gradually, security returned and Joska has reestablished her farm. With money from cotton, the area's main cash crop, she has been able to send her children to school and imagine a better future for them.

Windham police say sound of gunshots came from neighboring Pelham
WINDHAM - Though students and staff at both Windham Middle and Golden Brook Elementary schools reported hearing a loud blast in the woods on Tuesday morning, school officials said there's no reason for alarm.
Windham Police Chief Gerald Lewis said the noise was caused by people shooting at targets on private property in nearby Pelham.
"Rightfully so, these reports have causes some concern and anxiety for school staff as well as parents," Lewis said. "At no time was the shooting believed to have been in close proximity to the schools."
Police arrived to investigate the area between the two schools shortly after 11 a.m. on Tuesday but after an extensive search of the area, nothing suspicious was found near school grounds, Superintendent Henry LaBranche said.
"We never went on lockdown, and the police gave us the clear within 20 minutes," he said.
Chief Lewis said Windham police have since been in contact with members of the Pelham Police Department, who determined the noises had actually originated in Pelham.
"The noise from the shots was clearly heard in Windham as the snow cover and lack of foliage caused the sound to carry and seem closer than it actually was," Lewis said. "Based on this incident, we believe previous reports of gunshots in the woods behind the two schools came from the same general area."
This was the fourth time in the past several weeks that students and staff have been scared in the Windham district. Several days after the deadly school shooting in Newtown, Conn., Windham High School was placed on a brief lockdown after someone reportedly heard "a loud bang."
Several days later, a school board member heard news of a threat received over the Internet.
On Jan. 2, the middle school was locked down briefly after a resident reportedly heard gunshots.

Hemmings Find of the Day – 1925 Packard church bus
We've seen prewar Packards converted into motorhomes, wreckers and the obvious hearses and flower cars, but church bus-slash-preaching pulpit is a new one for us. Fortunately, the seller of this 1925 Packard church bus seems to know all of its local history and what needs to be done to return it to its former state, so while this won't make for an easy project by any means, it at least won't be any harder than it needs to be. From the seller's description:
A local church purchased 3 Packard's and then customized them into Preaching vehicles for the church. They took church officials to meetings and gatherings. They preached on Sunday monrings in the City's Park Blocks… at the back of the vehicle was a "Preachers' Platform" where the preacher would give his sermon. Of the three customized vehicles, this is the only one left. Truly a rare piece of history!
This car has been stored since the early 1960's. I believe that I have most every part… some may not be in the best shape, but they're all here! There are new tires on the vehicle and most of the car has been primed. All the leather seats are virtually gone but I have a few of the original ones with the springs and horse-hair. It had beautiful black, tuck and roll, leather upholstrey.
The body is in great shape, very little if any rust. I've been sanding and prepping for primer and a base coat of white paint.
I am not a mechanic. I have had problems getting her started. My dad had it started a few years ago… so I'm just missing something. I thought the key may be the Ignition / Starter Switch in the dashboard. I took it out and carefully documented everything. I was lucky to find an original and have it restored. It's like artwork now. Makes all the other instruments look bad!
I've decided that this is too big of a project for me! I'm just not getting it done.

Federal, state legislation aims to curb ethanol use in gasoline
Photo by BrotherMagneto.
Unable to get their anti-corn ethanol legislation included as a rider on an unrelated bill earlier this year, two U.S. senators have now re-introduced it as a standalone bill aimed at rolling back portions of the Renewable Fuel Standard, joining at least four other pieces of legislation on the federal and state levels aimed at reducing the amount of corn-based ethanol in modern fuel blends.
Retaining the same name and much of the same wording as the earlier piece of legislation – the Corn Ethanol Mandate Elimination Act of 2015, which failed to make its way into the Keystone XL Pipeline Act – senators Dianne Feinstein of California and Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania introduced the bill (S.577) last week, calling for a modification of the Renewable Fuel Standard to promote other biofuels, including biodiesel and cellulosic ethanol, over corn-based ethanol.
"Our infrastructure has a ceiling for the amount of corn ethanol that can be used, and we're rapidly approaching it," Feinstein wrote in a press release announcing the legislation. "Companies are physically unable to blend more corn ethanol into gasoline without causing problems for many gas stations and older automobiles."
Opponents of the legislation, including the Renewable Fuel Association, the National Corn Growers Association, and the Advanced Ethanol Council, have characterized it as "an attack on the Renewable Fuel Standard" and have called for the EPA to increase the amount of ethanol blended into gasoline despite the EPA's acknowledgement of the ethanol blend wall.
Both Feinstein/Toomey and their opponents do seem to agree that it's worth investing in other forms of cellulosic ethanol – that is, ethanol made from switchgrass and other non-food plant materials.
Meanwhile, Representative Bob Goodlatte of Virginia last month introduced the RFS Reform Act of 2015 (H.R.704), which proposes a number of changes to the Renewable Fuel Standard, among them a 10 percent cap on the amount of ethanol added to gasoline. Goodlatte had introduced similar legislation in 2013.
On the state level, legislators in Pennsylvania (H.B. 471), Oregon (H.B.2373), and Hawaii (S.B.717) have introduced bills aimed at eliminating altogether those states' requirements that all gasoline sold there contain at least 10 percent ethanol. All three bills have since been referred to committees. The SEMA Action Network, which monitors legislative issues for the collector-car hobby, backs all three state-level bills.
UPDATE (2.October 2015): The Senate Banking Committee voted down the Feinstein/Toomey bill, 15-7.
This Day in History: Oregon implements first gas tax
On February 25, 1919, Oregon implemented the nation's first gasoline tax. The tax added 1 cent per gallon of gasoline, which cost around 25c/gallon at the time. In today's dollars, that would be a tax of about 12 cents per gallon on $3/gallon fuel.

For the current issue of Hemmings Motor News, I wrote up a little introduction to the resilient wheel, a self-sprung technology that enjoyed not very much popularity in the decades before World War II. But for an idea that essentially no one used, quite a few people wrote in to comment.
I'd never actually seen a car equipped with resilient wheels, either, until Jack Shea sent this photo in. The shot was taken in Pendleton, Oregon, in 1912, and the car is rocking a set of Isaac Jay's wheels.
Aside from the patent (1,009,314), I've been able to dig up exactly bupkis on Jay. But Jack is actually more interested in the make and model of the car, and I'm nowhere on that, either. It's something between one and four years old at the time of the photo, and there were Paige-Detroit, Stoddard-Dayton, Havers, Studebaker/E-M-F, Reo, Buick, Apperson and Franklin dealerships in Pendleton at that time, which is always a good place to start.
Any ideas, either on I. Jay or the car?
Land-speed racing to come to the Oregon high desert?
The number of major timing organizations out there you can probably count on one hand. Narrow that down to the land-speed timing organizations, and you're down to three. One Oregonian hot rodder wants to add a fourth.
Josh Terrill, the president of the northern Oregon-based Rod Benders Car Club, recently announced the formation of the Northern Cascade Timing Association, specifically to conduct land-speed racing events on dry lake beds in the eastern Oregon high desert, similar to the Southern California Timing Association's events at Bonneville and El Mirage and the East Coast Timing Association's events at the Maxton Mile in North Carolina.
"So far what I am trying to accomplish is to resurrect the Northwest's hot rod scene," Terrill said. "Get people interested again."
Terrill said he has another club, the Alberta Clutch Poppers, signed on already, though he plans to allow individual memberships as well as club memberships. He also said he has a dry lake bed in mind — Alvord Lake near Fields, Oregon — though he has yet to discuss conducting an event there with the federal Bureau of Land Management.

Daddy, what's a race car? Well, in Oregon…
Plenty of states have specific definitions for street rods, hot rods,
kit cars or modified cars, but Oregon is the only one we know about to
define race cars, or at least "Racing Activity Vehicles." Passed by the
Senate on June 1st and signed by Governor Ted Kulongoski on the 27th,
House Bill 3527 specifically relates to racing activities, and will join
Chapter 693, (2007 Laws): on January 1, 2008.
HB 3527 adds an entire new section to the Oregon Vehicle Code, including
this definition:
"Racing Activity Vehicle" means a motor vehicle that:
(1) Is primarily used for racing on a race track and that has:
(a) A bodiless tubular steel chassis that forms the main
structural component of the vehicle;
(b) High side rails;
(c) Integral front and rear rollover tubes;
(d) A suspension with both front and rear double unequal length
wishbones and inboard, pushrod operated dampers; and
(e) A product identification number instead of a vehicle
identification number; and
(2) Is not a replica or an assembled vehicle.
Sounds like a Sprint or Modified to us. A whole raft of other minor
amendments to the Oregon Vehicle Code are also included.

Oregon by sports car
Participants gather before the start of the 2006 Columbia Gorge Classic Rally in the shadows of Oregon's Cascade Mountains.

Imagine yourself at the wheel of your vintage sports car, enjoying some of the most beautiful winding roads in the Pacific Northwest. Now imagine taking that drive with a few dozen like-minded enthusiasts as part of a time-speed-distance rally. Not a bad way to spend a June weekend, we'd say.
On June 22 and 23, the roads of Oregon's Multnomah, Clackamas and Marion counties will be filled with vintage sports cars, as the Columbia Gorge MGA Club hosts its annual Columbia Gorge Classic Rally and Tour. Despite the sponsor's name, you don't need to have an MG to participate — the event is open to all sports cars, sports sedans and special interest cars made before 1981.
There's a Standard Class for experienced rallyists, Novice Class for first-timers, and a Touring Class for those who aren't interested in the competitive aspect. There's a kickoff reception on Friday evening, a continental breakfast on Saturday, and lunch at Barton Park, on the Clackamas River.
The registration fee is just $75 for non-members, and $50 for members. Get your registration in by May 15, and you'll be guaranteed event shirts for both driver and co-driver. Registration is limited to 75 cars, on a first-come, first-served basis. Last year, 53 cars registered, and 41 finished. Don't own a sports car? You can still participate as a volunteer. To register, and to review the general instructions for the rally, visit www.columbiagorgemgaclub.org.

For a few dollars more
When it comes to the inordinately dull humdrum of legislative processes, there's one name to which you may always freely turn: Hemmings.
In the spirit of tracking down the details that can make the difference between old-car owning being a delight or a never-ending headache, we unearthed a nugget for you Oregonians from your state's 2005-2006 legislative session.
H.B. 2741 amended Chapter 280 during that session, and set new fees for antique and special interest vehicle registration. ORS
803.420, as amended by section 112, chapter 655, Oregon Laws 2003, now includes a $54 fee for your antique vehicle registered under
ORS 805.010, and an $81 fee for vehicles of special interest registered under ORS 805.020.
Pricey? Yes, but it's a lifetime
registration—provided you don't violate the limitations on those vehicles' uses, which voids your antique status.

New York and 10 Other States Get Tough on Emissions
Though it shouldn't have any direct effect on collector cars, a new round of stricter auto emissions requirements, expected to sweep the Northeast, could raise the price of your next new daily driver or tow vehicle.
The New York Times reported last week that New York is adopting California's new stricter automotive emissions regulations which will also require the fuel mileage of many vehicles to be increased by roughly 40 percent.
While environmentalists are applauding the proposed changes that New York, Maine, New Jersey, Vermont, Massachusetts, Oregon, Washington, Rhode Island, Connecticut and Pennsylvania are all expected to adopt, automakers contend that it could lead to a $3,000 increase in the price of new vehicles and the extinction of some light trucks and SUVs in those states altogether.

The x-ray light valve: A low-cost digital radiographic imaging system34(2007); http://dx.doi.org/10.1118/1.2799490View Description Hide Description
In recent years new digital x-rayradiographic and fluoroscopic systems based on large-area flat-panel technology have revolutionized our capability of producing x-rayimages. However, such imagers are extraordinarily expensive and their rapid image acquisition capability is not required for many applications such as radiography. Here we report a novel approach to achieve a high-quality digital radiographic system at a cost which is only a small fraction of competitive digital technologies. The results demonstrate that our proposed x-ray light valve system has excellent spatial resolution and adequate sensitivity compared to existing technologies.
Target motion tracking with a scanned particle beam34(2007); http://dx.doi.org/10.1118/1.2815934View Description Hide Description
Treatment of moving targets with scanned particle beams results in local over- and under-dosage due to interplay of beam and target motion. To mitigate the impact of respiratory motion, a motion tracking system has been developed and integrated in the therapy control system at Gesellschaft für Schwerionenforschung. The system adapts pencil beam positions as well as the beam energy according to target motion to irradiate the planned position. Motion compensation performance of the tracking system was assessed by measurements with radiographicfilms and a 3D array of 24 ionization chambers. Measurements were performed for stationary detectors and moving detectors using the tracking system.Film measurements showed comparable homogeneity inside the target area. Relative differences of 3D dose distributions within the target volume were with a maximum of . Dose gradients and dose to surrounding areas were in good agreement. The motion tracking system successfully preserved dose distributions delivered to moving targets and maintained target conformity.
4D DMLC leaf sequencing to minimize organ at risk dose in moving anatomy34(2007); http://dx.doi.org/10.1118/1.2804722View Description Hide Description
The most favorable treatment for moving body anatomy should aim at utilizing organ motion to minimize the dose to sensitive structures without compromising the dosedelivered to the target. The solution of the problem of appropriate intensity redistribution over different phases of body motion is achievable in dynamic multileaf collimator (DMLC) intensity modulated radiation therapydelivery, due to the fact that multiple solutions are admissible for imposing the same intensity map over a moving target in this technique of irradiation. The realization of this type of delivery provides a treatment methodology that deliverstreatment plans for moving patient anatomy that are superior to any treatments possible for static patient body anatomy. This paper is devoted to exploring this idea. To this end, a simple, though clinically realistic example is developed and presented that shows modified DMLC leaf motions that deliver a predetermined intensity to a moving target while reducing the dosedelivered to organs at risk.
An absorbed dose to water standard for HDR brachytherapy sources based on water calorimetry: Numerical and experimental proof-of-principle34(2007); http://dx.doi.org/10.1118/1.2815941View Description Hide Description
Watercalorimetry is an established technique for absorbed dose to watermeasurements in external beams. In this paper, the feasibility of direct absorbed dosemeasurements for high dose rate (HDR) iridium-192 sources using watercalorimetry is established. Feasibility is determined primarily by a balance between the need to obtain sufficient signal to perform a reproducible measurement, the effect of heat loss on the measured signal, and the positioning uncertainty affecting the source-detector distance. The heat conduction pattern generated in water by the Nucletron microSelectron-HDR brachytherapy source was simulated using COMSOL MULTIPHYSICSTM software. Source heating due to radiation self-absorption was calculated using EGSnrcMP. A heat-loss correction was calculated as the ratio of the temperature rise under ideal conditions to temperature rise under realistic conditions. The calorimeter setup used a parallel-plate calorimeter vessel of 79 mm diameter and 1.12 mm thick front and rear glass windows located 24 mm apart. Absorbed dose was measured with two sources with nominal air kerma strengths of 38 000 and 21 000 U, at source-detector separations ranging from 24.7 to 27.6 mm and irradiation times of 36.0 to 80.0 s. The preliminary measureddose rate per unit air kerma strength of compares well with the TG-43 derived . This work shows that combined doseuncertainties of significantly less than can be achieved with only modest modifications of current watercalorimetry techniques and instruments. This work forms the basis of a potential future absolute dose to water standard for HDR brachytherapy.
From medical images to multiple-biomarker microarrays34(2007); http://dx.doi.org/10.1118/1.2805252View Description Hide Description
A favorite cliché, often attributed to Yogi Berra, is "Prediction is difficult, especially about the future!" In this brief review, we shall recall some historical difficulties in predicting the future of diagnosticmedicalimaging—in particular, the modern technologies of CT and MRI—and examine the analogous situation in the emerging technology of diagnosticmicroarrays for the multiple-biomarker problem. All of these technologies began their lives as ill-conditioned problems, i.e., there was insufficient data to solve the central problem at hand.
Monte Carlo investigation of breast intraoperative radiation therapy with metal attenuator plates34(2007); http://dx.doi.org/10.1118/1.2805089View Description Hide Description
In intraoperative electron radiation therapy for breast cancer, attenuation plates are commonly used to protect organs at risk. These plates can be made of different materials, and the correct material (or combination of materials) has to be chosen in order to achieve the desired attenuation, while avoiding excessive backscattered radiation. The Monte Carlo method (BEAMnrcMP and DOSXYZnrcMP) has been used to characterize the electron beam generated by the setup (composed of a nondedicated linac and an applicator), and to simulate the percent depth dose (PDD) for plates of different materials. The beam has been characterized for nominal energies of 9 and 12 MeV. Several differently composed plates have been investigated: it was found, as expected, that the use of a plate presenting to the electron beam a high- material (i.e., lead) has to be avoided because of excessive backscatter (up to compared to the PDD without plate). On the other hand, the use of a single low- material (i.e., aluminum) in the plate can lead to an insufficient attenuation of the beam. The two-layer plate (6 mm of Al plus 3 mm of Cu) used in S. Chiara Hospital has been found to attenuate the beam almost completely for both considered energies, causing negligible backscatter radiation. The spectrum at various depth and at the tissue-plate interface has also been investigated.
Implantable MOSFET detectors: Evaluation of a new design34(2007); http://dx.doi.org/10.1118/1.2799578View Description Hide Description
The authors have studied the performance of a new version of the implantable MOSFETdetector designed for clinical use. Detectors were irradiated under 6- and 18-MV beams in water at body temperature to the calibrationdose of 200 cGy/fraction for 20 daily fractions to determine their response and reproducibility. Additional measurements were performed in a solid phantom under 6-MV irradiation at room temperature to daily doses of 100, 150, 200, 250, 400 and 600 cGy/fraction. Finally, the angular dependence with respect to rotation about the detector's longitudinal axis was studied. At body temperature, the detectors were found to have an average response within of the calibrationdose with a standard deviation of or less. At room temperature, doses lower than the calibrationdose led to a slight overresponse while doses higher than the calibrationdose led to a slight underresponse. Angular dependence was not significant, on average within of the mean. When used as specified by the manufacturer, these detectors should provide data useful to verify the delivered dose for external beam radiation therapy within a certain tolerance.
Daily targeting of liver tumors: Screening patients with a mock treatment and using a combination of internal and external fiducials for image-guided respiratory-gated radiotherapya)34(2007); http://dx.doi.org/10.1118/1.2804578View Description Hide Description
The feasibility and accuracy of using a mock treatment to screen suitable patients for respiratory-gated image-guidedradiotherapy was investigated. Radio-opaque fiducials implanted adjacent to the livertumor were used for online positioning to minimize the systematic error in patient positioning. The consistency in the degree of correlation between the external and internal fiducials was analyzed during a mock treatment. This technique could screen patients for gated therapy, reduce setup inaccuracy, and possibly individualize treatment margins.
Characterization of optically stimulated luminescent dosimeters, OSLDs, for clinical dosimetric measurements34(2007); http://dx.doi.org/10.1118/1.2804555View Description Hide Description
Optically stimulated luminescent dosimeters, OSLDs, are plastic disks infused with aluminum oxide doped with carbon . These disks are encased in a light-tight plastic holder. Crystals of when exposed to ionizing radiation store energy that is released as luminescence (420 nm) when the OSLD is illuminated with stimulation light (540 nm). The intensity of the luminescence depends on the dose absorbed by the OSLD and the intensity of the stimulation light. OSLDs used in this work were InLight/OSL Dot dosimeters, which were read with a MicroStar reader (Landauer, Inc., Glenwood, IL). The following are dosimetric properties of the OSLD that were determined: After a single irradiation, repeated readings cause the signal to decrease by per reading; the signal could be discharged by greater than by illuminating them for more than 45 s with a 150 W tungsten-halogen light; after irradiation there was a transient signal that decayed with a 0.8 min halftime; after the transient signal decay the signal was stable for days; repeated irradiations and readings of an individual OSLD gave a signal with a coefficient of variation of ; the dose sensitivity of OSLDs from a batch of detectors has a coefficient of variation of , response was linear with absorbed dose over a test range of 1–300 cGy; above 300 cGy a small supra-linear behavior occurs; there was no dose-per-pulse dependence over a 388-fold range; there was no dependence on radiation energy or mode for 6 and 15 MV x rays and 6–20 MeV electrons; for Ir-192 gamma rays OSLD had higher sensitivity; the dose sensitivity was unchanged up to an accumulated dose of 20 Gy and thereafter decreased by per 10 Gy of additional accumulated dose;dose sensitivity was not dependent on the angle of incidence of radiation; the OSLD in its light-tight case has an intrinsic buildup of ; dose sensitivity of the OSLD was not dependent on temperature at the time of irradiation in the range of 10–. The clinical use of OSLDs for in vivodosimetric measurements is shown to be feasible.
Dosimetric comparison of partial and whole breast external beam irradiation in the treatment of early stage breast cancer34(2007); http://dx.doi.org/10.1118/1.2799579View Description Hide Description
A dosimetric comparison was performed on external-beam three-dimensional conformal partial breast irradiation (PBI) and whole breast irradiation (WBI) plans for patients enrolled in the National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Project (NSABP) B-39/Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) 0413 protocol at our institution. Twenty-four consecutive patients were treated with either PBI (12 patients) or WBI (12 patients). In the PBI arm, the lumpectomy cavity was treated to a total dose of 38.5 Gy at 3.85 Gy per fraction twice daily using a four-field noncoplanar beam setup. A minimum 6 h interval was required between fractions. In the WBI arm, the whole breast including the entirety of the lumpectomy cavity was treated to a total dose of 50.4 Gy at 1.8 Gy per fraction daily using opposed tangential beams. The lumpectomy cavity volume, planning target volume for evaluation (PTV_EVAL), and critical structure volumes were contoured for both the PBI and WBI patients. Dosimetric parameters, dose volume histograms (DVHs), and generalized equivalent uniform dose (gEUD) for target and critical structures were compared. Dosimetric results show the PBI plans, compared to the WBI plans, have smaller hot spots in the PTV_EVAL (maximum dose: versus ) and reduced dose to the ipsilateral breast (: versus and : versus ), contralateral breast (: versus ), ipsilateral lung (: versus ), and thyroid (maximum dose: versus ) with values . However, similar dose coverage of the PTV_EVAL ( for PBI and for WBI, on average) was observed and the dose difference for other critical structures was clinically insignificant in both arms. The gEUD data analysis showed the reduction of dose to the ipsilateral breast and lung, contralateral breast and thyroid. In addition, preliminary dermatologic adverse event assessment data suggested reduced skin toxicity for patients treated with the PBI technique.
A new fixation aid for the radiotherapy of eye tumors34(2007); http://dx.doi.org/10.1118/1.2804750View Description Hide Description
A modified swim goggle holding a light spot as an optical guide for actively aligning the eye in a reproducible orientation has been constructed to perform radiotherapy of ocular tumors. This device is compatible with computed tomography(CT) and magnetic resonance imaging systems. Imagefusion of these data sets yielded clinically acceptable results. The reproducibility of the eye's positioning is tested by repeated CT. The eye's alignment during radiotherapy is monitored by an infrared TV camera with individual markings of the eye's position on the TV-monitor screen. From 2003–2006, 50 patients were treated with this fixation aid by radiosurgery with good patient compliance.
Thermal neutron irradiation field design for boron neutron capture therapy of human explanted liver34(2007); http://dx.doi.org/10.1118/1.2795831View Description Hide Description
The selective uptake of boron by tumors compared to that by healthy tissue makes boronneutron capture therapy (BNCT) an extremely advantageous technique for the treatment of tumors that affect a whole vital organ. An example is represented by colon adenocarcinoma metastases invading the liver, often resulting in a fatal outcome, even if surgical resection of the primary tumor is successful. BNCT can be performed by irradiating the explanted organ in a suitable neutron field. In the thermal column of the Triga Mark II reactor at Pavia University, a facility was created for this purpose and used for the irradiation of explanted human livers. The neutron field distribution inside the organ was studied both experimentally and by means of the Monte Carlo -particle transport code (MCNP). The liver was modeled as a spherical segment in MCNP and a hepatic-equivalent solution was used as an experimental phantom. In the as-built facility, the ratio between maximum and minimum flux values inside the phantom was 3.8; this value can be lowered to 2.3 by rotating the liver during the irradiation. In this study, the authors proposed a new facility configuration to achieve a uniform thermal neutron flux distribution in the liver. They showed that a ratio of 1.4 could be obtained without the need for organ rotation. Flux distributions and dose volume histograms were reported for different graphite configurations.
MicroRT—Small animal conformal irradiator34(2007); http://dx.doi.org/10.1118/1.2799887View Description Hide Description
A novel small animal conformal radiation therapy system has been designed and prototyped: MicroRT. The microRT system integrates multimodality imaging,radiation treatment planning, and conformal radiation therapy that utilizes a clinical isotope high dose rate source as the radiationsource (teletherapy). A multiparameter dose calculation algorithm based on Monte Carlodose distribution simulations is used to efficiently and accurately calculate doses for treatment planning purposes. A series of precisely machined tungstencollimators mounted onto a cylindrical collimator assembly is used to provide the radiation beam portals. The current design allows a source-to-target distance range of 1–8 cm at four beam angles: (beam oriented down), , , and . The animal is anesthetized and placed in an immobilization device with built-in fiducial markers and scanned using a computed tomography, magnetic resonance, or positron emission tomography scanner prior to irradiation. Treatment plans using up to four beam orientations are created utilizing a custom treatment planning system—microRTP. A three-axis computer-controlled stage that supports and accurately positions the animals is programmed to place the animal relative to the radiation beams according to the microRTP plan. The microRT system positioning accuracy was found to be submillimeter. The radiationsource is guided through one of four catheter channels and placed in line with the tungstencollimators to deliver the conformal radiation treatment. The microRT hardware specifications, the accuracy of the treatment planning and positioning systems, and some typical procedures for radiobiological experiments that can be performed with the microRT device are presented.
An algorithm for shifting MLC shapes to adjust for daily prostate movement during concurrent treatment with pelvic lymph nodesa)34(2007); http://dx.doi.org/10.1118/1.2804579View Description Hide Description
Concurrent treatment of the prostate and the pelvic lymph nodes encounters the problem of the prostate gland moving independently from the pelvic lymph nodes on a daily basis. The purpose of this study is to develop a leaf-tracking algorithm for adjustment of IMRT portals without requirement of online dose calculation to account for daily prostate position during concurrent treatment with pelvic lymph nodes. A leaf-shifting algorithm was developed and programmed to adjust the positions of selected MLC leaf pairs according to prostate movement in the plane perpendicular to each beam angle. IMRT plans from five patients with concurrent treatment of the prostate and pelvic lymph nodes were selected to test the feasibility of this algorithm by comparison with isocenter-shifted plans, using defined dose endpoints. When the prostate moved 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 cm along the anterior/posterior direction, the average doses to of the prostate for the iso-shift plans were similar to the MLC-shift plans, (54.7, 54.4, and 54.1 Gy versus 54.5, 54.3, and 53.9 Gy, respectively). The corresponding averages to the pelvic lymph nodes were reduced from the prescription dose of 45 Gy to 42.7, 38.3, and 34.0 Gy for iso-shift plans ( for each comparison), while the averages for the MLC-shift plans did not significantly differ from the prescription dose, at 45.0, 44.8, and 44.5 Gy. Compensation for prostate movement along the superior/inferior direction was more complicated due to a limiting MLC leaf width of 1.0 cm. In order to concurrently treat the prostate and pelvic lymph nodes with the prostate moving independently, shifting selected MLC leaf pairs may be a more practical adaptive solution than shifting the patient.
A patient-specific respiratory model of anatomical motion for radiation treatment planning34(2007); http://dx.doi.org/10.1118/1.2804576View Description Hide Description
The modeling of respiratory motion is important for a more accurate understanding and accounting of its effect on dose to cancers in the thorax and abdomen by radiotherapy. We have developed a model of respiration-induced organ motion in the thorax without the commonly adopted assumption of repeatable breath cycles. The model describes the motion of a volume of interest within the patient based on a reference three-dimensional (3D) image (at end expiration) and the diaphragm positions at different time points. The input data are respiration-correlated CT (RCCT) images of patients treated for non-small- cell lungcancer, consisting of 3D images, including the diaphragm positions, at ten phases of the respiratory cycle. A deformable image registration algorithm calculates the deformation field that maps each 3D image to the reference 3D image. A principal component analysis is performed to parameterize the 3D deformation field in terms of the diaphragm motion. We show that the first two principal components are adequate to accurately and completely describe the organ motion in the data of four patients. Artifacts in the RCCT images that commonly occur at the mid-respiration states are reduced in the model-generated images. Further validation of the model is demonstrated in the successful application of the parameterized 3D deformation field to RCCT data of the same patient but acquired several days later. We have developed a method for predicting respiration-induced organ motion in patients that has potential for improving the accuracy of dose calculation in radiotherapy. Possible limitations of the model are cases where the correlation between lungtumor and diaphragm position is less reliable such as superiorly situated tumors and interfraction changes in tumor-diaphragm correlation. The limited number of clinical cases examined suggests, but does not confirm, the model's applicability to a wide range of patients.
Design and dosimetry of a few leaf electron collimator for energy modulated electron therapy34(2007); http://dx.doi.org/10.1118/1.2795827View Description Hide Description
Despite the capability of energy modulated electron therapy (EMET) to achieve highly conformal dose distributions in superficial targets it has not been widely implemented due to problems inherent in electron beam radiotherapy such as planning dosimetry accuracy, and verification as well as a lack of systems for automated delivery. In previous work we proposed a novel technique to deliver EMET using an automated "few leaf electron collimator" (FLEC) that consists of four motor-driven leaves fit in a standard clinical electron beam applicator. Integrated with a Monte Carlo based optimization algorithm that utilizes patient-specific dose kernels, a treatment delivery was incorporated within the linear accelerator operation. The FLEC was envisioned to work as an accessory tool added to the clinical accelerator. In this article the design and construction of the FLEC prototype that match our compact design goals are presented. It is controlled using an in-house developed EMET controller. The structure of the software and the hardware characteristics of the EMET controller are demonstrated. Using a parallel plate ionization chamber, output measurements were obtained to validate the Monte Carlo calculations for a range of fields with different energies and sizes. Further verifications were also performed for comparing 1-D and 2-D dose distributions using energy independent radiochromic films. Comparisons between Monte Carlo calculations and measurements of complex intensity map deliveries show an overall agreement to within . This work confirms our design objectives of the FLEC that allow for automated delivery of EMET. Furthermore, the Monte Carlodose calculation engine required for EMET planning was validated. The result supports the potential of the prototype FLEC for the planning and delivery of EMET.
Treatment planning for a small animal using Monte Carlo simulation34(2007); http://dx.doi.org/10.1118/1.2805254View Description Hide Description
The development of a small animal model for radiotherapy research requires a complete setup of customized imaging equipment, irradiators, and planning software that matches the sizes of the subjects. The purpose of this study is to develop and demonstrate the use of a flexible in-house research environment for treatment planning on small animals. The software package, called DOSCTP, provides a user-friendly platform for DICOM computed tomography-based Monte Carlo dose calculation using the EGSnrcMP-based DOSXYZnrc code. Validation of the treatment planning was performed by comparing the dose distributions for simple photon beam geometries calculated through the Pinnacle3treatment planning system and measurements. A treatment plan for a mouse based on a CTimage set by a 360-deg photon arc is demonstrated. It is shown that it is possible to create 3D conformal treatment plans for small animals with consideration of inhomogeneities using small photon beam field sizes in the diameter range of 0.5–5 cm, with conformal dose covering the target volume while sparing the surrounding critical tissue. It is also found that Monte Carlo simulation is suitable to carry out treatment planningdose calculation for small animal anatomy with voxel size about one order of magnitude smaller than that of the human.
Automatic multiscale enhancement and segmentation of pulmonary vessels in CT pulmonary angiography images for CAD applications34(2007); http://dx.doi.org/10.1118/1.2804558View Description Hide Description
The authors are developing a computerized pulmonary vessel segmentation method for a computer-aided pulmonary embolism (PE) detection system on computed tomographic pulmonary angiography (CTPA) images. Because PE only occurs inside pulmonary arteries, an automatic and accurate segmentation of the pulmonary vessels in 3D CTPA images is an essential step for the PE CAD system. To segment the pulmonary vessels within the lung, the lung regions are first extracted using expectation-maximization (EM) analysis and morphological operations. The authors developed a 3D multiscale filtering technique to enhance the pulmonary vascular structures based on the analysis of eigenvalues of the Hessian matrix at multiple scales. A new response function of the filter was designed to enhance all vascular structures including the vessel bifurcations and suppress nonvessel structures such as the lymphoid tissues surrounding the vessels. An EM estimation is then used to segment the vascular structures by extracting the high response voxels at each scale. The vessel tree is finally reconstructed by integrating the segmented vessels at all scales based on a "connected component" analysis. Two CTPA cases containing PEs were used to evaluate the performance of the system. One of these two cases also contained pleural effusion disease. Two experienced thoracic radiologists provided the gold standard of pulmonary vessels including both arteries and veins by manually tracking the arterial tree and marking the center of the vessels using a computer graphical user interface. The accuracy of vessel tree segmentation was evaluated by the percentage of the "gold standard" vessel center points overlapping with the segmented vessels. The results show that (2398/2494) and (1910/1984) of the manually marked center points in the arteries overlapped with segmented vessels for the case without and with other lung diseases. For the manually marked center points in all vessels including arteries and veins, the segmentation accuracy are (4546/4689) and (4439/4732) for the cases without and with other lung diseases, respectively. Because of the lack of ground truth for the vessels, in addition to quantitative evaluation of the vessel segmentation performance, visual inspection was conducted to evaluate the segmentation. The results demonstrate that vessel segmentation using our method can extract the pulmonary vessels accurately and is not degraded by PE occlusion to the vessels in these test cases.

Maylen and her husband made their living farming rice and coconuts before Haiyan struck. They weren't rich, but they got by. But now, everything is different. The typhoon destroyed Maylen's home, flooded her fields with salt water, washed away her crop and seeds, and destroyed her barbecue. She has no home and no livelihood to feed her kids. Until she can get her business started again, she needs donors like you to help her survive.
What is the issue, problem, or challenge?
More than a month after the disaster, survivors in and around Tacloban are still struggling. They are homeless, have difficulty finding safe drinking water, and are increasingly vulnerable to illness. Recovery will take years, and survivors need our support now to ensure they can stay healthy as reconstruction begins.
How will this project solve this problem?
Your donations will allow us to support survivors like Maylen by providing emergency relief items, help accessing healthcare, emergency shelter, and help restarting livelihoods.
Potential Long Term Impact
In helping survivors like Maylen, we'll work through our local partners. Working with our local partners to provide aid ensures that our work will be as efficient as possible as our partners will be able to help us understand where reconstruction aid is needed most. Partner work also allows us to empower survivors, ensuring that they're participants in recover rather than simple recipients. This participatory approach lays the foundations of long-term recovery.

Dr. Masters co-founded wunderground in 1995. He flew with the NOAA Hurricane Hunters from 1986-1990. Co-blogging with him: Bob Henson, @bhensonweather
By: Dr. Jeff Masters , 7:49 PM GMT on July 19, 2006
Tropical Storm Beryl continues to slowly intensify. This afternoon's Hurricane Hunter aircraft reported a central pressure of 1002 mb at 4:22pm EDT, down 2 mb from the 11am advisory. The plane found winds as high as 57 knots at flight level (5,000 feet), which corresponds to about 50 mph at the surface--a 5 mph increase from the 11am advisory. The plane also made a visual observation of 60 mph winds at the surface. Satellite imagery continues to show a large blow-up of thunderstorms with very cold tops on the northwest side of Beryl. These cold tops mean the thunderstorms are reaching high levels of the atmosphere, and are therefore very intense.
If we examine the sea surface temperature plot for this morning (Figure 1), we see that Beryl is crossing the axis of the warmest waters of the Gulf Stream. These warm 27 - 28 C waters are probably responsible for the current burst of intensification. Beryl is moving north and should stay over these warmer waters until about midnight, so we can expect continued intensification for a few more hours. By early Thursday, Beryl is expected to encounter a region of high wind shear, and SSTs will start to cool. This should start to weaken the storm. The two most reliable intensity models used by NHC both forecast that Beryl will be a weak tropical storm with top winds of 40 - 50 mph at closest approach to New England.
Figure 1. 3D image of sea surface temperatures for July 19, 2006. Beryl is headed due north across the warmest waters of the Gulf Stream current today. Image credit: NOAA Environmental Modeling Center.
Beryl is expected to continue moving north today, then turn more to the northeast on Thursday as a trough of low pressure approaches from the west. Just how strong this trough is will determine how close Beryl passes to New England. Some of the forecast models are forecasting a strike on Long Island or Cape Cod Friday, but the official NHC forecast of a turn out to sea just south of New England sounds more reasonable, given that no July tropical storm --and only one July hurricane (1916)--has ever made landfall in New England.
Elsewhere in the tropics
An area of disturbed weather associated with an upper-level low pressure system has developed a few hundred miles north of Puerto Rico. Wind shear, dry air, and cold air temperatures will keep any development of this system to a minimum. A large cloud of African dust over the eastern Atlantic should keep things quiet there the rest of the week. There are no indications that Beryl's formation presages the beginning of a more active period in the Atlantic. Wind shear is expected to remain seasonably high for the rest of July, and none of the computer models are hinting at any development over the next week.
I'll be back with an update Thursday morning.

Still stumped on what to get for the running mama in your life? We've got some ideas. We can't guarantee they will arrive before Sunday, but at least you can say an awesome present is on its way.

What runner girl doesn't love a getting jewelry? Running necklaces can celebrate a race, commemorate a new PR, or keep a mantra close to your heart. We love Erica Sara's personalized pieces. The Marathon Mom necklace is perfect for a recently completed 26.2, but there any many jewelry options for all distances. Ericasaradesigns.com

Publisher's Description
"Exodus," writes H. L. Ellison, "is in many ways one of the most important and spiritually interesting books in the Old Testament. It tells the story of how God freed his people from Egypt and bound them to himself by a covenant. We are given insight into how this link with God modified the people's traditional law, how God's grace reacted to a broken covenant, and how we should approach God in worship."
Carrying forward brilliantly the pattern established by Barclay's New Testament series, the Daily Study Bible has been extended to cover the entire Old Testament as well. Invaluable for individual devotional study, for group discussion, and for classroom use, the Daily Study Bible provides a useful, reliable, and eminently readable way to discover what the Scriptures were saying then and what God is saying today.
