Randy Newman
By Joshua Klein , October 27, 2008
Randy Newman's not the most prolific songwriter, but when he does deign to release a new record, it's because he's got something to say. Harps and Angels is full of the satirical barbs and critical observations Newman fans have come to expect, from the pre-post-racial narrative of "Korean Parents" to "A Piece of the Pie", which invokes his fellow pop stars-- Newman's not afraid to name names-- as a means of illustrating the death of the American dream. Of course, in conversation, Newman is just as likely to expound on the commercial appeal of Poison power ballads, Alvin and the Chipmunks, and jai alai ("jai alai players have really big right arms, and really little left arms"), but he's not above talking about his music, too.
Pitchfork: I assume you're out in sunny Los Angeles.
Randy Newman: It isn't sunny, actually. We're all real depressed. Everyone's outside, worried.
Pitchfork: You waited nine years between records.
RN: That's a good way to put it.
Pitchfork: Why the rush?
RN: Well, I should have done more work in that area. If I'm going to be remembered for anything, it's that. Of course, I don't care if I'm remembered. But people who like [my work] wish that I had done more. I did a lot of pictures in that time, though, so I was busy with other things. When you don't write for a while, and then you go back to it-- it's goddamn hard! It's harder. It's hard at all times, I think. But staying away a while makes it harder.
Pitchfork: Well, doesn't the word "write" have its roots in the word "tear," something very physical?
RN: Well, yeah. But I still spent a lot of time lying around watching television, too. I was reading a book by Simon Schama, the historian. I found this book on the shelf I had barely heard of, so I got a bunch of his books, and I can't understand how he has the time. Does he have researchers? A History of Britain, Rough Crossings, something about Holland [The Embarassment of Riches: An Interpretation of Dutch Culture in the Golden Age --Ed.]... incredible!
Pitchfork: Is it a different discipline for you when you sit down to write your own music, as opposed to being hired to write music?
RN: Yeah. The easiest thing I do is assignment songs. They tell me what they need me to write. I can do that fairly quickly. Writing for an orchestra is difficult. Writing songs [on your own] is most difficult of all. Though [writing for] the orchestra is close.
Pitchfork: One of the more interesting aspects of your career is that you've avoided churning out an album every year, which I think has helped you avoid getting tagged as a novelty, for lack of a better word. You're not just writing off the headlines.
RN: Don Henley is always teasing me, asking if I've written another little novelty song. The fact is, what people like are the love songs. No doubt about it. Their favorite song on this new record is "Feels Like Home". I like it, but it's a fairly generic love song. Other people write 'em. But some of the stuff, no one else is doing-- maybe for good reason! But that stuff is more interesting, the Jackson Browne song ["A Piece of the Pie"], or "Korean Parents", "Harps and Angels". But "Feels Like Home" still goes some nice places, I think. And people really like it.
Pitchfork: Not that I would ever resort to calling you a cynic, but how do you remain authentic to the song when you know there are certain beats, certain melodies that will move people automatically?
RN: I don't really know that. After this experience, after this "Feels Like Home" thing, I know it a little more, but I can't do it automatically. I sort of can't help what I write. If I like it, I'm just so glad that I've got something that I can fill 28 seconds with. I'll take it. But I don't know anything about touching people automatically.
Pitchfork: I just read the Warren Zevon oral history, and your name pops up a couple of times in passing as a sort of elusive gold standard.
RN: That's nice of him to say. He was his own fella. He did just fine with his writing. Writers have always liked my stuff, pretty much. That's what I wanted-- I think my goal wasn't to get rich and famous, necessarily, though I cared about that. I always thought, "Oh, this could be a hit," or "that will sell records." But the first thing I wanted was that people who knew a lot about music, or had taste-making qualities, they would like my stuff. Writers, people like that. And I kind of got it, and realized, I want more! [laughs] It's always gratifying to me when someone like Elvis Costello mentions me, someone whose work I admire.
Pitchfork: Thanks to the Disney movies, probably more people have heard you than ever before, but maybe fewer people have heard of you.
RN: I think that's probably true, though it's probably narrowing the "heard of you" now with this record. But it'll never touch Toy Story or A Bug's Life, where I'm essentially anonymous. That's in every home with a little kid, and it'll be there for years. But you're right-- they've heard me, but it's like hearing an oboe player who plays on every music session.
Pitchfork: Does that anonymity free you at all?
RN: You know, maybe it has, yeah. That's a good question. I think if I had more success it might have pressured me out of writing just whatever I wanted to write-- I don't have that strong a character. But when I did Born Again, that was after I did "Short People", which was a hit but a novelty hit. And Born Again, just looking at the cover, seems like a reaction to that, presuming that people would know I'm not just some asshole with makeup on. They'll know who I am. Which was a mistake-- they don't know who I am. That's the weirdest album I ever made.
Pitchfork: Your weirdest album came right after your weirdest success story.
RN: "Short People"? Yeah. I must have thought... you'd rather have a hit. But "Short People" was the worst kind of hit to have. If you can have a bad hit, that would be one of them. It was like "Witch Doctor" by Alvin and the Chipmunks.
Pitchfork: But David Seville did a lot of strange songs besides that one.
RN: He did. I knew him! Ross Bagdasarian. Yeah, [legendary Warner Bros. exec] Lenny Waronker's father started Liberty records, and Bagdasarian saved him from bankruptcy. Lenny's father's name was Simon. They named the Chipmunks after executives at Liberty-- Simon, Alvin [Bennett], and Theodore [Keep].
Pitchfork: The times I've seen you perform live, I've been struck by the economy of your lyrics, but people tend to equate intelligence with wordiness.
RN: I don't. I mean, I think in most cases, unless you're writing about a character who is garrulous, you say what you've got to say and then get out. Those little conjunctions, those little turnaround words help you do it. That's the way I like to write: I get rid of things rather than add them.
Pitchfork: Do many of your songs begin bigger than they end up?
RN: I wouldn't say many, but there's always a few. I'll cut down the verse or... some of these songs I kept thinking about, like there was something wrong with them. I tried to get rid of that John Mellencamp line first [in "A Piece of the Pie"], but I liked that first line so much-- "There's a famous saying someone famous said"-- I liked that so I kept it. I could have then gone, "As General Motors goes, so goes we all, the company's so sick now it's almost dead." And I never got it to where I thought it was a really great chorus, but that chorus, when I thought of that-- "That's not true, John's a patriot" and all that stuff-- it sort of made it OK. But I never liked that verse much.
Pitchfork: And now you have to live with it forever.
RN: Yeah. It sounds like I'm praising Jackson Browne and slamming Mellencamp, which is not what I'm doing.
Pitchfork: Do you feel a certain rueful satisfaction when you write a song like "Political Science" that remains trenchant so many years later?
RN: It's a surprise that I'll play songs that-- of course, I'm playing to the choir. That they've lasted this long, no one would have had any idea. I mean, you could tell the Beatles stuff would last. But "Political Science", there's always been that strain in the country. It's sometimes more predominant than it is other times. Now it's to the point where they don't laugh at it.
Pitchfork: It's ironic that we're a couple of decades past the end of the Cold War, and yet in a lot of ways the prospect of nuclear annihilation seems closer than ever.
RN: Yeah, it's a little surprising. But when you think about it, historically, when the lid comes off, when Tito goes to Yugoslavia, boom, they go to war. Their 700-year-old feuds flare. That's what happens. You get rid of the Shah... well, you don't get rid of him but you remove him, and then all the old discontents rise to the surface when there isn't somebody sitting on them.
Pitchfork: The last few years have been so ridiculous it's gone way past funny, to the point that you can't laugh at it.
RN: It's surreal. They actually outed a CIA agent, a government official-- imagine if a Democrat had done that! They'd go to prison forever. What's unbelievable is that the polls are close.
Pitchfork: It's hard to laugh at the prospect of something so bad so close to reality.
RN: It really is. And the racial component is much greater than the polls would indicate. And the interesting thing, this is the best country in the world for that. In England, in France, in no other country would a black man have a chance to get elected. There's no two ways about it. Our country's been better about dealing with immigration and people who are different from each other than any other country in the world, that I know of. So we've got that. So, what the hell. You know, you end up having these conversations, but I always hate it when a celebrity or show-biz people start talking about politics. Yet one of the things I resent about this administration is that they almost force you to. It's so blatant and right in your face.
Pitchfork: Yeah. I mean, how many years-- literally, years-- has it been since they've shown a flag-draped coffin?
RN: I know! I hadn't even thought of that. Again, it's unbelievable.
Pitchfork: You're one of a very few songwriters to implicitly or explicitly address race or race relations in your music.
RN: Over and over. That's why they've improved so much. It's like I wrote in that song ["A Piece of the Pie"], only Jackson Browne has stayed interested. Really, all that fervor and good will of the late 1960s and early 70s, it went away. Things were left to remain the same. My kids just went to a camp where they worked with Hispanic and African-American kids in shelters. I mean, they come from another world. It was a fantastic experience, but, boy, their experiences were very different. And the black kids had it worse than the Hispanic kids. A lot of the Hispanic kids had cohesive families, at least a little bit. The black kids didn't. It's the saddest thing going. But people get so scared. When the Republicans say the Democrats are going to tax and spend... I mean, things look shitty! I don't know about where you are, but the roads are shitty, the schools are shitty....
Pitchfork: Oh, it's pretty shitty everywhere.
RN: It's because we're not taxed like other Western countries are. They lowered my taxes! How can a country countenance lowering taxes on the upper income? I can't believe it!

Coquet Island
Project to remove the monastic cell at Coquet Island from the Heritage At Risk register. More...
North of England Civic Trust
North of England Civic Trust (NECT) is excited to announce that it has been awarded a grant of £1,379,300 from the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) towards its ambitious £2m project for the historic corn mill in Warwick Bridge.
NECT is also very grateful for the support of the Architectural Heritage Fund throughout the development period for this project and beyond. Their help and shared vision for the future of this last unrestored corn mill in Cumbria has been crucial in getting us to this point.
The mill as seen today has remained almost unchanged as part of the village and its life since the 1840s, though it can trace its origins back to the era of the Doomsday Book. Its future has been uncertain, so this lifeline support from HLF is the essential catalyst NECT has been hoping for. The project will bring the mill back into full working order as both an asset for the community and its local economy.

Many states have not set dates for upgrading systems to manage wireless calls
"Congress pushes for more resilient telecom"
"States collection and use of funds for Wireless Enhanced Services"
Despite significant progress in many states, the implementation of emergency 911 infrastructure still has no definite completion date, according to a new Government Accountability Office report.
With no federal mandate for full wireless Enhanced 911 (E911) implementation, state governments are setting their own timetables, the report states. When complete, the infrastructure would automatically transmit wireless callers' phone numbers and locations to public safety dispatchers.
States must implement E911 services in two phases. Phase 1 provides the wireless caller's phone number and general location, pinpointing the cell tower or site that receives the wireless call. Phase 2 provides a more accurate location, usually within 50 to 300 meters of the caller.
GAO officials said nearly 80 percent of Public Safety Answering Points, which receive the 911 calls, are able to view a wireless caller's phone number, while 57 percent can also get a caller's location.
Of the 44 states that responded to a GAO survey, 10 have implemented Phase 2 statewide, and 21 indicated that they would do so in the next five years with at least one wireless carrier. Three other states said their implementation would take more than five years, while five states said they might not implement the service statewide. Five states could not provide a timeline.
Washington, D.C., and 48 state governments require wireless phone carriers to charge callers a surcharge ranging from 20 cents to $3 per month to help pay for E911 implementation, according to the report. But four states did not use all E911 funds for implementation purposes, the report states.
"These states reported that some E911 funds were transferred to their state's general fund," the report states. "For example, one state told us that E911 funds were transferred to the general fund to help balance the state budget. Another state reported that some E911 funds were transferred to the state police since the police answer emergency calls in some areas of the state."
According to the Cellular Telecommunications and Internet Association–The Wireless Association, a nonprofit group representing the cellular industry, about 82 million E911 calls are made annually.

"Women need to know that prosthetics have come a long way in the last several years to help them regain their confidence and self esteem. Equally important is the awareness that health care plans will cover most of the expenses relating to both reconstructive surgery and breast form products, and women aren't limited, based solely on cost or procedure."
A recent study published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology noted that doctors and patients need to do a better job discussing all of the options, because according to research, disappointing cosmetic results can have a negative impact on a woman's quality of life.(1)
"Breast prosthetics are important alternatives to reconstruction, and partial prosthetics may be necessary to achieve symmetry following breast conserving surgery and reconstruction," said Hohl. "If women are armed with the right information, they can choose what's right for them. Our goal is to provide the highest quality products and to help women get back to a normal life as quickly as possible."

Florida House asks court to mediate redistricting; Senate objects w/Photo
The intra-party feuding that led to a legislative stalemate on congressional redistricting continued Monday as Republican House leaders split from the Senate and asked the Florida Supreme Court to allow a trial court judge to mediate their dispute. "We are in an unprecedented and unique time, and every action we take is charting new territory," acknowledged House Speaker Steve Crisafulli, R-Merritt Island, in a letter to House members after House lawyers filed a motion asking the Florida Supreme Court to relinquish jurisdiction of the redistricting case for 60 days. Comment?
Legislature at impasse over how to draw Florida's congressional districts w/Photo
A divide over how to shape Tampa Bay's congressional districts is creating uncertainty over whether the Legislature will be able to finish its job in a court-ordered special session on time. While a legislative impasse is hardly new in the recent political dynamics of the House and the Senate, the latest breakdown is complicated by the fact that they are under a Florida Supreme Court order to draw new districts because the last two attempts failed to produce a constitutionally sound map. Comment?
Florida lawmakers reluctantly convene for another redistricting session w/Photo
It was 101 degrees in the shade Monday afternoon when Florida legislators gaveled open a two-week special session to redraw - for the third time - the state's congressional districts and, within minutes, it became apparent that hardly anyone wanted to be there. The governor and his family had jetted off to Paris for a vacation. Comment?

Steve Bousquet: Bush and Scott budget vetoes: A tale of two governors w/Photo
When Jeb Bush used his line-item veto powers as governor, he was being "Veto Corleone," a principled steward of tax dollars and a man deserving of respect. That's the version of events being pushed by two prominent pro-Bush Republican state senators who are showcased in a new Bush presidential campaign video, defending his record on the subject of line-item vetoes. Comment?

Midnight madness: A flurry of back-room deals before lawmakers settle on $79 billion budget w/Photo

"This is the democratic process," said Senate Appropriations Chairman Tom Lee, R-Brandon. Comment?
Editorial: It comes down to 12 votes w/Photo
Perhaps a dozen votes, give or take. That is roughly how many more votes are needed today for the Florida House to accept Medicaid expansion money to help provide health coverage for hundreds of thousands of low-income Floridians. Comment?
Sharply divided Florida Legislature kicks off special session w/Photo
A sharply-divided Florida Legislature returned to the Capitol Monday to resolve unfinished business, including a state budget, a stalemate over health care and expanded environmental protections mandated by voters in the state Constitution. Senate President Andy Gardiner, R-Orlando, and House Speaker Steve Crisafulli, R-Merritt Island, gaveled the session to order at 1 p.m. in an eerily quiet Capitol, nearly five weeks after the regular session collapsed in a bitter clash over health care. Comment?
Feds say Florida needs $1 billion in hospital funding for poor next year w/Photo
The federal government told Florida Thursday that the state will need $1 billion next year to maintain a hospital payment program that's at the center of a political stalemate preventing passage of a new state budget. In a letter to state health officials, the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid services said the $1 billion would "maintain stability while the system transitions" to new ways of compensating hospitals for the high cost of treating poor patients, a program known as LIP or low income pool. Comment?
Florida Senate and House agree to scope of special session w/Photo
In their first tangible sign of progress in weeks, legislative leaders Friday set the agenda for a June special session to include a budget, Medicaid expansion, tax cuts and several other issues. Senate President Andy Gardiner, R-Orlando, and House Speaker Steve Crisafulli, R-Merritt Island, issued a joint proclamation that specifies issues to be considered during a three-week session starting at 1 p.m. June 1. Included in the list of issues is the Senate's modified version of Medicaid expansion, a health insurance exchange that relies on federal Medicaid money to expand health care to 800,000 uninsured Floridians. Comment?

Bills aimed at helping people with special needs become casualty of legislative impasse w/Photo
A day after it was reported that House Speaker Steve Crisafulli accused Senate President Andy Gardiner of sandbagging him on Medicaid expansion, the House released its agenda for the week that shows no sign of the priority bills he and Gardiner agreed to relating to people with special needs. The bills are a top priority of Gardiner, an Orlando Republican whose son has Down syndrome. Comment?
Despite $600 million offer, Florida Senate refuses to back off Medicaid expansion w/Photo
It was intended to be an offer the Florida Senate couldn't refuse: Give up the quest to expand Medicaid and the Florida House would set aside $600 million in state money to protect hospitals and county health departments facing extreme budget cuts. But the Senate did refuse the offer late Friday, thrusting the 2015 legislative session into near chaos with just one week to go before its scheduled end. Comment?

The hottest team in baseball took time out of their pursuit of a pennant Tuesday afternoon to visit members of Engine Co. 292 and Rescue 4 in Woodside.
New York Mets players Michael Cuddyer, Steven Matz, Daniel Murphy and Bobby Parnell joined the team's chief operating officer, Jeff Wilpon, and Fire Commissioner Daniel Nigro for the visit to the Queens Boulevard firehouse, where they met with active and retired firefighters and family members.
The visit was part of the Mets' ongoing support of the Fire Department and the FDNY Foundation. Since the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks — which claimed the lives of 343 firefighters — members of the club have made trips to firehouses in September to both mark the anniversary of the attacks and offer tokens of gratitude to New York's Bravest.
During Tuesday's trip, the Mets distributed T-shirts to firefighters and enjoyed lunch with them. They also paused at the 9/11 memorial within the firehouse to remember those who died in the attacks.
The Mets had their eight-game winning streak last night, but have an 8 1/2-game lead in the National League Eastern Division. They play the Miami Marlins tonight before a three-game series this weekend against their crosstown rival Yankees.

Oxygen: A Four Billion Year History (Science Essentials)by Donald Eugene Canfield
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
"With humor and humanity, Oxygen captures the excitement of scientific discovery and describes the amazing natural history of how Earth's oxygenated atmosphere came to be."--Ed DeLong, Massachusetts Institute of Technology
"A fascinating, accessible tour through the history of atmospheric oxygen, written by one of the world's top geobiologists. Canfield takes the reader from the anaerobic early Archean Earth up through the modern highly oxygenated environment, providing pointers to the relevant scientific literature along the way. Even experts in this field will learn things from his book."--James Kasting, author of How to Find a Habitable Planet
"In Oxygen, Don Canfield recounts two epics in one--the evolution of breathable air over the entirety of Earth history, and the equally engaging account of how scientists have reconstructed this history from chemical details in ancient rocks. Even those who know the story well, or think they do, will find much food for thought."--Andrew Knoll, Harvard University, author of Life on a Young Planet: The First Three Billion Years of Evolution on Earth
"Canfield takes us on a journey through the discovery of what produces oxygen, how oxygen evolved on the planet, and how that evolution influenced other aspects of planetary evolution. An enjoyable book."--Lee Kump, coauthor of The Earth System
"This is a wonderful introduction to the most important event in Earth history--the rise of oxygen in the atmosphere. Canfield shares his broad and deep grasp of the field, his research leadership, his respect and admiration for the work of others, and his excitement and healthy skepticism about what we know--and still need to know."--Timothy W. Lyons, University of California, Riverside
"As ecologist Canfield explains it, 'Oxygen is a signature feature of Earth; the high levels in our atmosphere define the outlines of our existence, as they also generally define the nature of animal life on Earth.' But this has not always been the case. Canfield's work explores the atmospheric composition of the planet in past and seeks to understand the processes that led to the changes that have occurred. He blends heavy doses of biology with geology and geochemistry to present current hypotheses about how the Earth's 'great oxidation' took place 'between 2.3 and 2.4 billion years ago,' resulting from the rise of cyanobacteria coupled with a reduction in the Earth's tectonic activity as the planet's core cooled. Much of the work Canfield discusses was conducted by him and his direct collaborators and mentors. Beyond the actual science — which is often presented in a way that is complex enough to deter a general readership — his excellent descriptions of the scientific process show how competing hypotheses, and the scientists who present them, vie for supremacy. Canfield also offers a philosophical perspective: scientific understanding provides true insight into the structure of the natural world and reveals that 'science will converge on these ideas, if not now by one scientist, then later by another.'" Publishers Weekly Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved.
The air we breathe is twenty-one percent oxygen, an amount higher than on any other known world. While we may take our air for granted, Earth was not always an oxygenated planet. How did it become this way? Donald Canfield--one of the world's leading authorities on geochemistry, earth history, and the early oceans--covers this vast history, emphasizing its relationship to the evolution of life and the evolving chemistry of the Earth. Canfield guides readers through the various lines of scientific evidence, considers some of the wrong turns and dead ends along the way, and highlights the scientists and researchers who have made key discoveries in the field. Showing how Earth's atmosphere developed over time, Oxygen takes readers on a remarkable journey through the history of the oxygenation of our planet.
About the Author
Donald E. Canfield is professor of ecology at the University of Southern Denmark and director of the Nordic Center for Earth Evolution (NordCEE). He is a member of the National Academy of Science, coauthor of Aquatic Geomicrobiology and coeditor of Fundamentals of Geobiology.

The quality control (QC)/quality assurance (QA) lab function is, by law, a separate entity from production in food plants. Functionally it has a large impact on the unit cost of your products. Inefficiencies in the lab can cause delayed delivery to customers, product loss due to slow response to an out-of-tolerance condition, and higher-than-necessary staffing.
A project to upgrade or replace a lab needs to be done with the same care as replacing a wrapper or vertical form/fill/seal operation. The project steps are the same as other projects, but there are many details that may be unfamiliar to an engineer that has not been exposed to lab challenges.
Look at the overall quality function:
Health, safety and environmental resources should be involved early in the design. Typical considerations are:
Look to the future:
Specialized utilities and services are required by labs:
Once you understand these items and all other considerations, you can complete the user requirements and conceptual design of the lab. This becomes the foundation of a successful project. Remember the goal is to have a cost-effective facility to support the business unit in producing a product that meets consumer and quality requirements. By going through a disciplined process, you will gain a lab that minimizes capital and contributes to profitability by efficiently providing testing.

Information for Graduates
Important Distinction between Graduating and Participating in Commencement Events
Commencement events are the congratulatory ceremonies hosted by university officials in which students are publically and formally recognized. Graduation is the process of being awarded a degree after completion of credit hours and other degree requirements. Actual diplomas are not awarded at commencement ceremonies and participation in the ceremonies is not a guarantee of degree completion.
To officially graduate from UNT, a student must apply for graduation by the posted deadline. After receipt of final grades, the student's degree audit or degree plan must show the student satisfied all university, college and departmental requirements for the specific degree. A degree becomes official when it is posted to a student's transcript -- typically two to three weeks after the completion of their final term -- not by their participation in commencement exercises.
For more information about commencement events, please visit www.unt.edu/commencement.
Apply to Graduate
All students must apply for graduation by the deadline. During the semester in which you intend to graduate, please submit your application through MyUNT by the deadline listed in the chart below.
In an effort to "go green" and streamline the application process for our graduates, the application for graduation is now online. To proceed with your graduation application follow these instructions:
- Login to MyUNT and from the Student Center click on the "Apply for Graduation" link in the Other Academic dropdown. The "Apply for Graduation" link will be visible, even if you may not be eligible for graduation at this time. Please see your academic advising office for more information.
- Verify your program, degree, and major. If your specific program, degree, and/or major is not listed in MyUNT, contact your academic advising office.
- Select your anticipated graduation term. Only terms for which we are accepting applications will be displayed.
- Enter your name as you would like it to appear on your diploma and in the commencement program. Please double check for typos - your name will be printed exactly as you entered it.
- Verify/update your mailing address. This is the address that will be used to send you important graduation/commencement updates (pre-graduation), as well as to send your diploma (6-8 weeks after graduation).
- Check your UNT email for a confirmation that your application has been received.
- Check your UNT email frequently for updates as your application is reviewed and processed.
For more detailed instructions, click here.

Recent advances in satellite tracking technology allow scientists to essentially follow large pelagic fish on their ocean journeys without getting wet. There are two kinds of satellite tags that are commonly used to study the movements of sharks. First are the pop-off satellite archival tags (PAT tags). These are attached to the fish's back where they record data on water temperature, swimming depth, and light levels. After a programmed period of time the tags pop off the fish, float to the surface and transmit their data to satellite. From light level data (which tells us when the sun rises and sets) and sea surface temperatures recorded by the tag, it is possible to estimate the latitude and longitude and recreate the track of the animal. A second type of satellite tag, the SPOT (Smart Position and Temperature) tag, is attached to the dorsal fin and transmits the position of the shark when it is at the surface. The SPOT tags have allowed us to track sharks for almost two years although most tracks are shorter. For many species, the satellite tags have provided, in just a few years, more data on movements and behaviors than had been collected over previous decades.
The SWFSC HMS Group started using satellite tags in 1999 to study the movements of sharks and was one of the first groups to mount SPOT tags to a shark's dorsal fin. In the first years of research, efforts focused primarily on mako (Isurus spp.) and thresher sharks (Alopias spp.). In more recent years, NOAA Fisheries has been collaborating with the Tagging of Pelagic Predators (TOPP) program and Mexican colleagues at the Centro de Investigación Científica y de Educación Superior de Ensenada (CICESE) to deploy satellite tags on blue (Prionace glauca), shortfin mako (Isurus oxyrinchus) and common thresher sharks (Alopias vulpinus) in the California Current. The goals of the project are to document and compare the movements and behaviors of these species and to link these data to physical and biological oceanography. This approach will allow us to both characterize the habitats sharks most frequently utilize or prefer and subsequently to better understand how populations might shift in response to changes in environmental conditions. This type of information is critical for fisheries management, especially in the face of climate change.
The SPOT and PAT tags have provided some exciting insights into the biology of the blue, mako and thresher sharks. To date, over 200 tags have been deployed on the three species. While all species utilize the coastal waters in the Southern California Bight and regularly cross the border into Mexico, key differences among years and species are apparent. For example, over the period covered by the satellite tracks, the blue sharks tagged have traveled the farthest offshore to waters south of Hawaii. Movement patterns for mako sharks show distinct differences among years. For example, in 2004 movements were much farther offshore than in 2003 and 2005. Interestingly, 2004 was an El Niño year and the shift in distribution likely reflects a change in the availability of food near-shore.
An examination of daily dive patterns reveals some additional differences among the three species. In comparison to the mako sharks, the blue and thresher sharks show a distinct diurnal pattern. The greatest difference in day and nighttime depth distributions is apparent in thresher sharks, which spends more time at depth during the day than either of the other two species. Stay tuned for more exciting results on vertical habitat use and geographic movement patterns in the years to come. Future efforts will focus on deploying satellite tags on larger sharks over a broader geographic range. To date, most sharks have been tagged in the southern California Bight and are juveniles.

Man shot by his grandfather in Anderson
ANDERSON COUNTY - A man shot his knife-wielding grandson in the leg in a Saturday morning confrontation, according to the Anderson County Sheriff's Office.
The grandson, 24-year-old Bradley Carter Aldrich, is charged with two counts of attempted murder. He was being treated Saturday at AnMed Health Medical Center in Anderson for the gunshot wound and for self-inflicted knife wounds, said sheriff's Capt. Garland Major.
Aldrich had been staying with his father, Gregory Lee Aldrich, 51.
The younger two Aldrichs lived next door to Bradley's grandfather, Carlton Shelton Aldrich, 72, officials said.
The confrontation happened shortly before 7 a.m. Saturday.
Bradley Aldrich used a knife to hurt himself outside the family's homes, which are slightly more than a mile south of the city of Anderson on George Albert Lake Road.
Bradley Aldrich "became aggressive toward his father and grandfather," Major said.
Carlton Aldrich shot a .22-caliber handgun into the ground several times, and the two older Aldrichs ran into the grandfather's home. When Bradley Aldrich followed, he was shot in the leg by his grandfather, Major said.
Bradley Aldrich will be taken to the Anderson County Detention Center once he is released from the hospital, Major said. That move had not happened as of 8 p.m. Saturday.

Girls Lose Friends for Having Sex But Boys Don't, Study Shows
Posted 24 Aug 2015 by Drugs.com
MONDAY, Aug. 24, 2015 – The impact that young teens' sexual activity has on their circle of friends differs for girls and boys, a new study finds. Researchers looked at data from youngsters in 28 rural communities in Iowa and Pennsylvania who were followed from ages 11 to 16, and found that girls lost friends for having sex and gained friends for making out without sex. But boys lost friends for making out and gained friends for having sex, according to the study scheduled for presentation Monday at the annual meeting of the American Sociological Association (ASA) in Chicago. The investigators found that after having sex, girls had a 45 percent loss in peer acceptance, while boys had an 88 percent increase in acceptance, on average. After making out, girls had a 25 percent increase in peer acceptance, while boys had a 29 percent decrease, the findings showed. "In our sample of early ... Read more

U.S. Teens Waiting Longer to Have Sex: CDC
Posted 22 Jul 2015 by Drugs.com
WEDNESDAY, July 22, 2015 – Less than half of U.S. teenagers aged 15 to 19 are having sex, a rate dramatically lower than it was a quarter-century ago, a new federal government report shows. Only 44 percent of girls and 47 percent of boys between the ages of 15 and 19 had sexual intercourse at least once from 2011 to 2013, the researchers found. That's down from 51 percent of girls and 60 percent of boys in 1988, said study author Gladys Martinez. She is a demographer/statistician with the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), part of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The drop in teen sexual activity is most likely due to the AIDS epidemic and the cultural shift that resulted from increased awareness of sexually transmitted diseases, said Dr. Jill Rabin, co-chief of the division of ambulatory care & women's health programs-PCAP Services at North Shore-LIJ ...

Anti-Rape Program Halved Number of Campus Assaults: Study
Posted 10 Jun 2015 by Drugs.com
WEDNESDAY, June 10, 2015 – A program aimed at teaching women how to recognize dangerous situations and resist sexual coercion almost halved the risk of rape on three college campuses, a new study shows. "We expected that providing women with knowledge and tools could increase their ability to defend themselves and reduce the severity of the sexual violence they experience," said study author Charlene Senn, a professor of psychology at the University of Windsor in Ontario, Canada. "We didn't expect the reductions to be as dramatic as they were. Only 22 young women need to receive the program for one completed rape to be averted." The findings were published in the June 11 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine. An estimated 20 percent to 25 percent of women attending universities will be sexually assaulted, with the highest risk occurring in their freshman and sophomore years, ... Read more

Nearly 1 in 5 Female College Freshmen Sexually Assaulted: Study
Posted 20 May 2015 by Drugs.com
WEDNESDAY, May 20, 2015 – Almost one out of every five young women was raped or experienced attempted rape during her freshman year at a large private university in upstate New York, a new study reports. Alcohol and/or drugs played a major role in sexual assaults, with as many as 15 percent of young women reporting that they had been subjected to "incapacitated" rape during their first year in college, according to the study. "We find that the likelihood of incapacitated rape compared with forcible rape is higher in college than in the community," based on these results and previous studies of sexual assault, said lead author Kate Carey, a professor of behavioral and social sciences at the Brown University School of Public Health in Providence, R.I. The study findings were published online May 20 in the Journal of Adolescent Health. The study also found that a sizable minority of young ... Read more

Millennials More Tolerant, Less Promiscuous Than Their Parents
Posted 6 May 2015 by Drugs.com
WEDNESDAY, May 6, 2015 – Millennials aren't pairing off with as many sex partners as Baby Boomers and Gen Xers, but they're more accepting of premarital sex and same-sex relationships. That's the conclusion of a new review that charted Americans' evolving views on sex, relationships and behavior. "We found a really profound shift in sexual attitudes and behavior," said study lead author Jean Twenge, a professor of psychology at San Diego State University. "In the 1970s, it was much more common to say that sex before marriage was wrong or sometimes wrong. And it was by far the majority view to say sex between two adults of the same sex was wrong. "That has changed a huge amount," she added. Twenge and her colleagues launched their study to gain a better understanding of how generational attitudes about sex and sexuality have shifted over the past four decades. The researchers looked at ... Read more

Few Military Women Seek Care After Sexual Assault: Study
Posted 1 May 2015 by Drugs.com
FRIDAY, May 1, 2015 – Most American servicewomen who are sexually assaulted don't seek health care right away, a new study suggests. Of more than 200 women who said they had been sexually assaulted while in the armed forces, fewer than one-third sought medical care after the attack, researchers found. "There are numerous health consequences associated with sexual assault," said lead author Dr. Michelle Mengeling, an affiliate investigator with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). "Examples include gynecologic, gastrointestinal, chronic pain symptoms and sexual dysfunction. There are also mental health outcomes such as [post-traumatic stress disorder], depression, substance abuse and anxiety," she said in a VA news release. According to the study authors, women who are sexually assaulted tend to need more health care than other women in the years after they're assaulted. The ... Read more

Genital Herpes Vaccine Shows Promise in Mouse Study
Posted 10 Mar 2015 by Drugs.com
TUESDAY, March 10, 2015 – There's a glimmer of hope for millions of people infected with genital herpes: A new study in mice hints at the success of a vaccine against the virus. Researchers at Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York City report that the vaccine was safe and effective in protecting mice against herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2), the virus that causes genital herpes. The vaccine also shows indications of being effective against oral herpes, which causes cold sores, according to the authors of the study published March 10 in the online journal eLife. While the findings are promising, experts note that results from animal studies often do not pan out in human trials. According to the researchers, genital herpes is one of the most common sexually transmitted diseases, affecting about 500 million people worldwide. Genital herpes is transmitted during sex or from a ... Read more

Did Columbus Really Bring Syphilis to Europe?
Posted 3 Dec 2014 by Drugs.com
WEDNESDAY, Dec. 3, 2014 – A new study is intensifying the debate over whether Christopher Columbus or his crews brought syphilis from the New World to Europe, setting the stage for hundreds of years of illness and death. Researchers in Bosnia report that an ancient skeleton of a young Croatia-area man shows signs of the disease. That would mean that the sexually transmitted infection existed there long before the era of the great explorers, they said. Two specialists questioned the study's findings. They said it's still most likely that the crews of Columbus' ships are responsible for spreading the sexually transmitted disease across Europe. "Despite the many efforts to suggest otherwise, there is no Old World evidence of syphilis prior to 1492," said Dr. Bruce Rothschild, a professor of medicine at the University of Kansas who studies the origins of diseases like syphilis.

CDC Endorses Circumcision for Health Reasons
Posted 3 Dec 2014 by Drugs.com
TUESDAY, Dec. 2, 2014 – U.S. health officials are poised to endorse circumcision as a means of preventing HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Tuesday released its first-ever draft guidelines on circumcision that recommend that doctors counsel parents and uncircumcised males on the health benefits of the procedure. The guidelines do not outright call for circumcision of all male newborns, since that is a personal decision that may involve religious or cultural preferences, Dr. Jonathan Mermin, director of the CDC's National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD and TB Prevention, told the Associated Press. But "the scientific evidence is clear that the benefits outweigh the risks," Mermin said. Circumcision involves the surgical removal of the foreskin covering the tip of the penis.

Multiple Drug Use Raises Infection Risk for 'Swinging' Couples
Posted 24 Oct 2014 by Drugs.com
FRIDAY, Oct. 24, 2014 – Multiple drug use put couples who "swing" at increased risk for sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), a new study shows. Swingers are defined as heterosexual couples who have group sex, swap partners and/or visit sex clubs for couples. Researchers looked at 289 people, average age 49, in the Netherlands who said they were swingers and visited an STD clinic between 2009 and 2012. Half of the participants said they'd had six or more sex partners in the last six months, and had not used a condom during vaginal sex. More than half said they'd had group sex during the same time, and half of them did not use condoms. One quarter of the men reported having sex with other male swingers in the last six months, according to the study published Oct. 23 in the journal Sexually Transmitted Infections. Overall, rates of chlamydia and/or gonorrhea were 13 percent, but no other ... Read more

Nearly 5 Percent of Young U.S. Women Have Chlamydia: CDC
Posted 26 Sep 2014 by Drugs.com
THURSDAY, Sept. 25, 2014 – An estimated 1.8 million Americans aged 14 to 39 are infected with the sexually transmitted disease chlamydia, and many don't know it, federal health officials reported Thursday. Rates of infection are highest among young women. An estimated 4.7 percent of women aged 14 to 24 were infected with the easily treated disease in 2012, which often has no symptoms. But, if left untreated, chlamydia can lead to infertility, problems during pregnancy and other health threats. "Chlamydia is common, and it's especially common in young women. Most young women who are infected don't know they have it," said study author Elizabeth Torrone, an epidemiologist with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's division of STD prevention. "This report really underscores the need for young women to be screened for chlamydia annually," she said. The report was based on ... Read more

Behavioral Counseling Urged for Teens, Young Adults at Risk for STDs
Posted 23 Sep 2014 by Drugs.com
MONDAY, Sept. 22, 2014 – Teens and young adults at risk for sexually transmitted infections should undergo "intensive" behavioral counseling to help prevent risky sexual behaviors, according to new recommendations from the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force. Every year, about 20 million new sexually transmitted infections such as gonorrhea and chlamydia occur in the United States. About half involve people between 15 and 24 years old, according to the task force. Its new report, published Sept. 22 in Annals of Internal Medicine, updates its 2008 guidelines. The task force is an independent panel of health experts that reviews a broad range of preventive health care services and develops recommendations for health care providers. Adults at risk for sexually transmitted infections include those who've had one within the past year, those who don't always wear condoms and those with ... Read more

Many STDs May Go Undiagnosed, U.S. Report Finds
Posted 10 Jun 2014 by Drugs.com
TUESDAY, June 10, 2014 – About 400,000 Americans may have the sexually transmitted disease chlamydia, but not know they have it, new research suggests. The new government report estimates that 1.8 million people in the United States have chlamydia, but that only 1.4 million infections have been reported. Women, particularly young women, seem to have an even greater risk of harboring this often symptomless infection, according to the U.S. National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention news release. Researchers analyzed data from the 2007 to 2012 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey and found that 1.7 percent of men and women aged 14 to 39 have chlamydia, which works out to about 1.8 million infections in the United States. However, only about 1.4 million chlamydia infections are reported each year, which indicates that many chlamydia infections go ... Read more

STD Education Must Start Long Before Kids Engage in Sex
Posted 17 Feb 2014 by Drugs.com
MONDAY, Feb. 17, 2014 – Having a stable home life as a child, nice friends and success at school reduces the odds of getting sexually transmitted diseases as a young adult, according to a new study. The University of Washington researchers said the findings show that efforts to prevent STD infections should begin years before most young people start having sex. "Kids don't engage in risky behaviors in a vacuum. There are environmental opportunities that have to be created," study lead author Marina Epstein said in a university news release. "Monitor your kid more generally, and make sure they're engaged in school and have friends who don't get into trouble." The researchers analyzed data from nearly 2,000 Seattle-area participants in two youth-development studies that began in the mid-1980s and early 1990s. At age 24, the participants had been with an average of eight sexual partners. ... Read more

Talking to Partners About STDs Often Awkward: Survey
Posted 6 Nov 2013 by Drugs.com
WEDNESDAY, Nov. 6 – Many people find it difficult to talk with their partners about sexually transmitted diseases, and public health campaigns need to find better ways to promote these types of conversations, according to a new study. The study included 181 sexually active men and women with an average age of 26, who completed an anonymous online questionnaire. Just more than half of participants said they felt "very comfortable" talking to their partners about how to prevent STDs. Less than half felt "very comfortable" talking with a partner about sexual histories. Comfort levels rose and conversations grew easier when people felt better informed about STDs and had practice talking about them with their partners. "Take time to get informed. It will only make your conversation more comfortable and ensure that you are really protecting your health," study lead researcher Margo Mullinax, ... Read more

I have new information straight from the newly elected MASON KING whi is also the real Holy Grail. Every translation of the Bible grom Genesis to Revelation was written by a MASON SCRIBE!!! All Emperors, Popes, and Kings were high ranking MASONS with the Hidden Hand. Everything wr know, including the prayer to renouce MASONRY was a Masonic prayer. We have to go back past oral traditions and research for ourselves. He vows to put Masonry back on track towards the only YASHUA UMAMESIA!!! He says the parells of agni and YASHUA is no mistake bc Lucifer have been trying to claim HIS throne since the creation of time. He's on a wise assault against MASONRY as we know it!!! He says this will take time, 300 33rd's, and patiently waiting. He urges, this will not happen over night or Knights, but will happen within 7years of strategies implemented. All interested needs to risk their lives and livelihood by joining forces with the ROYAL KNIGHTS NATIONAL LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY CHRISTIANS, and Bishop Thomas. Tje league influence 300 Senators who are the pioneers of G.O.T.A.R.- Guardians of Of The American Repulic. Most of them the new Tea-Party. Yes, there is s reason why we say Democrats and Republican, it's the real split btw 33rd's. Bishop Thomas is a knowledgeable unaffiliated party. Let the reformation take place througj the Medieval Rite. Know your 14KNIGHTLY VIRTUES!!! Will come in handy. God bless, straight from the King's private Chambers.
