WASHINGTON – A former Congressional staffer warned Tuesday that US assistance
for Iron Dome and other Israeli military expenditures would likely be reduced
should expected draconian cuts to the US budget go into effect."Iron
Dome will be cut," Randy Jennings, a former Congressional aide on defense issues
and now a defense industry consultant, said at an event on Israel's short-range
rocket defense system held at The Heritage Foundation."There will be no
sacred cows...All the programs will be hit," he said.Jennings
was referring primarily to the looming threat of "sequestration," whereby some
$100 billion of next year's budget will automatically be cut across the board
starting in January, unless a gridlocked Congress works out major compromises
before then.The cuts are slated to continue for nine years and reach
over $1 trillion.About half of the reduction is scheduled to come from
defense spending.Israel has received hundreds of millions of dollars for
the Iron Dome system, on top of $3 billion in annual military assistance. Plans
are underway for hundreds of millions more for the short-range system, but
Jennings suggested at least some of that funding would be
vulnerable.Also Jennings spoke of the overall condition of the federal
budget where non-discretionary spending on entitlement programs such as social
security take up a larger percentage of the budget as the population ages,
shrinking the amount of discretionary funds available."I think in
Congress you're always going to have strong support, and in the administration.
But their ability to fully fund it with all these budget pressures is going to
be that much worse," Jennings said.However, Baker Spring, a national
security fellow at Heritage who participated Tuesday alongside Jennings,
assessed that lawmakers would move to protect some types of defense spending as
the possibility of broad across-the-board cuts neared."As sequestration
kicks in, the pressures are going to build, I think pretty dramatically, to
provide more discretion in terms of how the cuts are applied," he maintained,
pointing particularly to push-back from the Pentagon."Sequestration is
not a good outcome for defense any way you cut it," he said.He was
echoed by Ilan Berman, vice president of the American Foreign Policy
Council."There are sacred cows," Berman argued.Lt.-Col. Merav
Davidovits, Israel Missile Defense Organization Liaison Officer for the Embassy
of Israel, who also appeared on the panel, noted that Israel is aware of
America's economic realities."Of course we are fully aware of obstacles
we have at this time," she acknowledged.The strategy, Davidovits said,
was to make the case for how the Iron Dome system protects not only Israel, but
American interests in stability in the region, and can provide American jobs in
production as well.She said Israel is working to double its capacity of
Iron Dome batteries, though she said details on the planning were secret and the
government had not yet discussed details of the effort with the US."We
are very grateful, and we don't take for granted all the aid that we have been
receiving from the US," Davidovits said.

Article: microRNA-223 promotes the growth and invasion of glioblastoma cells by targeting tumor suppressor PAX6[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Glioblastoma is the most common primary central nervous system malignancy and its unique invasiveness hinders effective treatment. Its high invasiveness may be controlled partly by microRNAs (miRNAs, miRs) and their target genes. In the present study, we found that increased miR-223 expression and reduced PAX6 expression coexisted in glioblastoma as detected by quantitative PCR or tissue microarrays. We confirmed that miR-223 directly targets PAX6 through binding to its 3'-UTR using dual luciferase reporter assay. In U251 and U373 glioblastoma cells, overexpression of miR-223 decreased PAX6 mRNA and protein expression; however, inhibition of miR-223 increased PAX6 mRNA and protein expression. Moreover, overexpression of miR-223 led to effects similar to those of PAX6 knockdown: increased cell viability, increased percentage of cells in the G1 phase and increased cell invasiveness parallel with increased MMP2, MMP9 and VEGFA expression. In addition, inhibition of miR-223 resulted in effects similar to those of PAX6 overexpression: decreased cell viability, decreased percentage of cells in the G1 phase and decreased cell invasiveness parallel with reduced MMP2, MMP9 and VEGFA expression. The data presented here suggest that miR-223 promotes the growth and invasion of U251 and U373 glioblastoma cells by targeting PAX6, which serves as a tumor suppressor in glioblastoma exerting the functions of inhibition of cell cycle transition, and the expression of MMP2, MMP9 and VEGFA. In conclusion, the present study supports miR-223 and PAX6 as novel therapeutic targets for glioblastoma.Oncology Reports 08/2013; 30(5). DOI:10.3892/or.2013.2683 · 2.30 Impact Factor
Article: [Protective effect of maslinic acid preconditioning against oxygen-glucose deprivation- induced injuries in embryonic rat cortical neurons][Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To investigate the effect of maslinic acid preconditioning against injuries of rat cortical neurons induced by oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD). The cortical neurons were isolated from Sprague-Dawley rat embryos at 15-17 days of gestation for primary culture. The cortical neurons were incubated with different concentrations (0.1, 1, and 10 micro;mol/L) of maslinic acid prior to OGD. The cell damage and viability were evaluated for lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) leakage and using MTT assay, respectively, and the expression of Bax protein was detected using Western blotting. OGD significantly increased LDH release rate and decreased the viability of the cells. After preconditioning with maslinic acid (1 and 10 micro;mol/L), LDH leakage rate was decreased and cell the viability increased in cells exposed to OGD. Western blotting showed that Bax expression in the cells decreased as maslinic acid concentrations increased. Pretreatment with maslinic acid can protect cultured embryonic rat cortical neurons against OGD-induced injury possibly in relation to decreased expression of Bax.Nan fang yi ke da xue xue bao = Journal of Southern Medical University 03/2013; 33(3):322-5.
Article: Construction and characterization of a cDNA library from human brain glioma cell line U251 with overexpressed exogenous p53 gene[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The tumor-suppressor gene p53 and its downstream genes consist of a complicated gene network, and the challenge to understand the network is to identify p53 downstream genes. In order to isolate and identify new p53 regulated genes, we constructed and characterized a normalized cDNA library from human brain glioma cell line U251 while exogenous p53 gene is overexpressed. The constructed cDNA library contained 1.3×10 6 directional recombinants, and its insert size ranged from 0.5 to 2.0 kb. Screening the cDNA library, we obtained two novel p53 downstream genes, PAP1 and PAP2. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analyses of the library for specific genes revealed the presence of cDNAs for p53 downstream genes such as p21, gadd45, and PCNA. These results demonstrate the sequence complexity and relatively low redundancy of our cDNA library. It is a valuable and unique resource for studying p53 gene expression, regulatory mechanisms and screening p53 downstream genes.AFRICAN JOURNAL OF BIOTECHNOLOGY 09/2010; 9(33):5262-5268. · 0.57 Impact Factor
Article: [Protection of hepatocyte growth factor on neurons subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation/reperfusion].[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The present study was conducted to investigate the effect of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) on cortical neurons exposed to oxygen-glucose deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/R). Primary cultured cerebral cortical neurons were prepared from Sprague-Dawley rats. The cells were used for experiments after culture for 12 d in vitro. To initiate OGD/R, the culture medium was replaced by glucose-free medium, and cells were transferred to a humidified incubation chamber flushed by a gas mixture of 95% N(2) and 5% CO(2) at 37 °C for 2 h. Following this treatment, neurons were fed with glucose-supplemented (25 mmol/L) medium, and returned to the incubator under normoxic condition for 0-24 h. The cell viability was assessed by MTT assay, and cell injury was evaluated by lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) leakage rate. The percentage of apoptotic cells was analyzed by flow cytometry and Hoechst 33258 staining. The expressions of c-Met mRNA and protein were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot analysis, respectively. Oxygen-glucose deprivation for 2 h decreased the cell viability and increased LDH leakage rate in cultured cerebral cortical neurons. The cell viability declined and LDH leakage rate increased with the reperfusion time going on (0-24 h). To explore the influence of HGF on neurons under oxygen-glucose deprivation for 2 h/reperfusion for 24 h (OGD(2)/R(24)) condition, the cultures were pretreated with HGF at different concentrations (5-120 ng/mL) 2 h prior to OGD(2)/R(24). The results showed that OGD(2)/R(24) treatment significantly decreased the cell viability, increased LDH leakage rate and the percentage of apopototic cells. Pretreatment with HGF at 5 ng/mL and 10 ng/mL did not affect the decrease in cell viability resulting from OGD(2)/R(24). In the presence of 20 ng/mL HGF, the increase in cell viability in cortical neurons exposed to OGD(2)/R(24) began to appear, and 80 ng/mL of HGF exhibited the maximal effect. HGF at 5, 10 and 20 ng/mL did not affect the increase in LDH leakage rate in cortical neurons exposed to OGD(2)/R(24). In the presence of 40 ng/mL HGF, the decrease in LDH leakage rate in cortical neurons subjected to OGD(2)/R(24) began to appear, and 80 ng/mL of HGF displayed the maximal effect. In addition, HGF at 80 ng/mL significantly attenuated cell apoptosis resulting from OGD(2)/R(24). As detected by semi-quantitative RT-PCR and Western blot analysis, c-Met mRNA and protein were expressed in cerebral cortical neurons cultured for 12 d in vitro. c-Met mRNA and protein expressions in cortical neurons exposed to OGD(2)/R(24) were significantly upregulated and were not affected by pretreatment of HGF at 80 ng/mL. Treatment with c-Met inhibitor SU11274 (5 μmol/L) completely eliminated HGF-mediated protection of cortical neurons subjected to OGD(2)/R(24). The results suggest that HGF directly protects cortical neurons against OGD/R-induced cell injury in a dose-dependent manner, and HGF has a potent anti-apoptotic action on neurons exposed to OGD/R.Sheng li xue bao: [Acta physiologica Sinica] 05/2008; 60(2):235-42.
Article: HGF protects cultured cortical neurons against hypoxia/reoxygenation induced cell injury via ERK1/2 and PI-3K/Akt pathways[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) has been revealed to exert multipotent activities on a variety of cells. In this study, we investigated whether HGF had a direct neuroprotection on cultured cerebral cortical neurons subjected to hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) and explored the intracellular signalings mediated the effects. The decrease in cell viability and increase in number of apoptotic cells resulting from H/R were significantly prevented by HGF pre-treatment. HGF stimulated both ERK1/2 and Akt activities in cortical neurons. Inhibition of ERK activation completely abolished the protective effects of HGF, and inhibition of Akt activation reduced, but did not completely eliminate the HGF mediated neuroprotection. It is suggested that the neuroprotection of HGF depend on ERK1/2 pathway, and, to a lesser extent, PI-3K/Akt pathway. In addition, we found that pre-treatment with HGF remarkably attenuated the decrease in expression of Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL induced by H/R, but failed to affect the amount of Bax. It is likely that Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL contribute to the protective effects of HGF.Colloids and surfaces B: Biointerfaces 03/2008; 61(2):290-7. DOI:10.1016/j.colsurfb.2007.09.009 · 4.15 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: To explore the feasibility of a bone cancer pain model by injecting the Lewis lung carcinoma cells into the femur bone marrow cavity of C57BL/6 mice. Sixty clear grade male C57BL/6 mice (body weight 18 approximately 20 g) were randomly divided into 4 groups(15 in each group). Cancer cell inoculated group: 2*10(6) Lewis lung carcinoma cells in 10 microL PBS were injected into the left femur bone marrow cavity, and the other 3 control groups were injected the heat inactivated Lewis cells, PBS, or a false operation respectively. Spontaneous lifting time and mechanical allodynia threshold of the mice hind paw were measured in the alternative days throughout the experiment. The structural damage of the femur was monitored by radiogram on the 7th,15th, and 23rd day respectively,and the pathohistological changes of the femur bones were observed by HE staining on the same days. Those mice that received intra-femur innoculation of Lewis lung carcinoma cells gradually developed the spontaneous pain, which was began on the 11th day after the innoculation, and followed by mechanical allodynia. The course of flinch lasted in the later experimental session. The 50% Von Frey threshold was significantly decreased on the 13th day after the innoculation, and the mechanical allodynia lasted the whole experimental period. On the 23rd day after the innoculation, X-ray film showed that the medullary cavity of ipsilateral distal femur was filled with tumor cells, and the cortical bone became thick; furthermore, the tumor cells invaded the peripheral muscles. Injecting the Lewis lung carcinoma cells into the femoral medullary cavity of C57BL/6 mice can successfully establish a murine bone cancer pain model, and the murine model shows much resemblance compared with the human bone cancer pain.Zhong nan da xue xue bao.

ABSTRACT: To explore the mechanisms of hypoxic preconditioning on protecting cultured astrocytes from hypoxia injury. Cultured astrocytes were divided randomly into several groups: control(C), hypoxia(H) and hypoxic preconditioning (HP). Cells MTT metabolic activity, qualitation of apoptosis and modality to explore the protection effects of hypoxic preconditioning. Immunocytochemistry of Bcl-2 and Bax to explore the mechanisms of hypoxic preconditioning on protecting astrocytes from hypoxia. Compared with H group there was marked increase of MTT metabolic activity in HP48 and HP72 groups. Immunocytochemistry of Bcl-2 and Bax showed that compared with H group, expression of Bcl-2 was increased in HP group, while expression of Bax was decreased in HP group. Hypoxic preconditioning can protect astrocytes from hypoxia. One possible mechanism maybe concerned with inhibition of Bax and maintain of Bcl-2 to depress apoptosis procedure.Zhongguo ying yong sheng li xue za zhi = Zhongguo yingyong shenglixue zazhi = Chinese journal of applied physiology 02/2008; 24(1):30-4.
Article: Effect of thrombin on cultured rat cerebral astrocyte injured by hypothia/reoxygenation and its relationship with iNOS[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To observe the effect of thrombin on the cytotoxicity of astrocytes injured by hypoxia/reoxygenation(H/R) and to explore its relationship with inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). Primary astrocytes were cultured in DMEM with 10% approximately 15% calf serum and divided into 6 groups: a control group, a Tm control group, an H/R group, a Tm+H/R group, a hirudin (HR) control group, and a Tm+HR+ H/R group. The cell damage and viability were detected by the 3-(4, 5-dimethylthazol-2-yl)-2, 5 diphenyl tetrazo liumbromide (MTT) conversion method. The NO level in the cultured cell supernatant was assayed by Griess reagent. The flow cytometry was performed to evaluate the apoptosis rate of astrocytes. The iNOS mRNA was examined by semi-quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Immunocytochemistry was used to observe the expression of iNOS protein. The cell viability injured by H/R was lower than that of the control group, the NO production and apoptosis rate in the cell of H/R group were higher than those of the control group. Incubation of H/R cell with 10kU/L Tm enhanced the cytotoxicity of H/R stimulation compared with the cells injured by H/R. Hirudin can reverse the effect of thrombin. RT-PCR and immuneocytochemistry analysis demonstrated that the levels of iNOS mRNA and iNOS protein increased in the cells treated by H/R. Tm enhanced the expression of iNOS mRNA and iNOS protein in the cells treated by H/R. Hirudin blocked the effect of Tm. Increasing the level of iNOS and enhancing the production of NO may be the mechanism of thrombinos cytotoxicity in astrocytes injured by H/R.Zhong nan da xue xue bao.

Article: Protective effect of thrombin precondition on astrocytes insulted by oxygen-glucose deprivation[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To explore the effect of thrombin precondition (TPC) on the rat cerebral astrocytes(As) cultured in oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD). Astrocytes were pretreated with thrombin (TB) at various concentrations (0.005 approximately 5.000 kU/L), and then insulted by OGD. The cell damage and viability were evaluated by the lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) effusion rate and the 3-(4,5-dimethylthazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) conversion method. Detection of apoptotic cells was determined by the flow cytometry technique. The glutamate uptake of astrocytes was studied with [3H]-glutamate incorporation. OGD increased the LDH, decreased the cell viability, increased the number of apoptotic astrocytes, and decreased the glutamate uptake (P<0.01). While preconditioned with thrombin at the same condition, the LDH decreased, the cell viability increased, the percentage of apoptotic cells decreased, and the glutamate uptake increased (P<0.05). The maximum protective effect of thrombin was observed at 0.1 kU/L. Low concentration of thrombin precondition (TPC) can protect the astrocytes from oxygen-glucose deprived injury, and attenuate its apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner.Zhong nan da xue xue bao.

ABSTRACT: The tumor-suppressor gene p53 and its downstream genes consist of a complicated gene network. p53 is a key molecular node in the network, which is activated in response to several cellular signals resulting in the maintenance of genetic stability. Several cellular signals may activate the p53 network. When the expression of P53 is elevated, P53-MDM2 module and the ubiquitin system can accurately regulate the expression level of P53. P53 can bind to specific DNA sequence, activate its downstream genes expression, and control cell-cycle arrest, DNA repair, and apoptosis. Elucidating the function of p53 gene network will help understand the interaction mechanisms of p53 and its downstream genes.Colloids and surfaces B: Biointerfaces 04/2007; 55(1):10-8.

Article: Characterization of the human PAP1 gene and its homologue possible involvement in mouse embryonic development[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We have identified PAP1 gene, a novel member of the immunoglobulin superfamily (IGSF) from U251-pTet-p53 cell line, which carried a wild-type p53 transgene. The gene has been localised to chromosome 16p12-13. Alignment of the predicted protein sequence for Human, Pan troglodytes, Canis, Mus musculus and Gallus gallus revealed it was highly conserved. Its homologue, IGSF6, possible involves in mouse embryonic development. The presence of IGSF6 specific transcript was detected by Northern blot in the RNAs extracted from 11 to 14 day postconception. IGSF6 expression is different in mouse embryos of the different ages. In situ hybridization performed on mice embryos sections showed the differential presence of IGSF6 in developing lung and kidney. This structure and differential expression suggests a function involvement in embryonic development, perhaps involvement in cell proliferation.Colloids and surfaces B: Biointerfaces 10/2006; 52(1):22-30.

Article: MICA * 008/A5. 1 allele and HCMV infection in kidney transplanted donees of Hunan Han nationality[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To investigate the relationship between MICA*008/A5.1 allele and human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection in kidney transplanted donees of Hunan Han nationality. The MICA*008/A5.1 allele based on 91 kidney transplanted donees and 81 unrelated normal individuals of Han nationality in Hunan Province were analyzed by PCR/SSP assay. At the same time, anti-HCMV antibody IgM was detected in the serum by ELISA method. The positive rate of MICA*008/A5.1 allele was significantly higher in the control group (56.79%) than that in the kidney transplanted donee group (34.07%) (P <0.05). The infection rate of HCMV in those individuals whose genotype was MICA*008/A5.1 (-) was significantly higher than that in the MICA*008/A5.1(+). The individual whose genotype is MICA*008/A5.1 (+) is not liable to HCMV infection, but the individual whose genotype is MICA*008/A5.1 (-) is liable to HCMV infection.Zhong nan da xue xue bao.

ABSTRACT: To explore the effect of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) on oxygen-glucose deprived injury and apoptosis of astrocytes. The injury of primary cultured rat cerebral cortical astrocytes was induced by oxygen-glucose deprivation. Astrocytes were treated with HGF at various final concentrations of 20 - 100 ng/mL. The cell damage and viability were evaluated by the lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) released rate and the 3- (4,5-dimethylthazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) conversion method. Detection of apoptotic cells was determined by the flow cytometry, and the ultrastructure was observed by the transmission electron microscope. Oxygen-glucose deprivation increased the LDH release rate, decreased the cell viability and increased the number of apoptotic astrocytes. While exposed to HGF at the same condition, the LDH release rate decreased, the cell viability increased, and the percentage of apoptotic cells decreased (P <0.05). The maximum protective effect of HGF was observed at 60 ng/mL. HGF can protect cultured astrocytes from oxygen-glucose deprived injury, and attenuate the apoptosis of astrocytes in a dose-dependent manner.Zhong nan da xue xue bao.

Article: PreparationSynthesis and Characterization and characterization of PEG-PEI/Fe 3 O 4 nano-magnetic fluid Modified with PEG-PEI by co-precipitation method[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: PEG-PEI/Fe 3 O 4 nano-magnetic fluids with different mass fractionsmass ratio of reactant were prepared by co-precipitation method. Besides The particle size analyzer, the methods of XRD, IR, VSM, and AFM were adopted to characterize the synthesized samples. Covalent bonding of PEG, PEI and Fe 3 O 4 exhibits superparamagnetism. The TEM photograph shows that the particles are of stable dispersion and little aggregation, with smooth surface, spherical shape and a diameter of about 80 nm, which meets the requirements of nano-materials. When the mass fraction of PEI inin reactant is 25%, the particle size, Zeta-potential and pEGFP-C1 DNA loading efficiencyadsorption rate of DNA plasmid pEGFP-C1 are all satisfactory. In this case, PEG-PEI/ Fe 3 O 4 nano-magnetic fluids can be used as gene vectors or targeted drug carriers.

JED's Playhouse is this little corner of the web where a man found his creativity and voice he didn't even realize he had lost. Way back in 2013 The Notorious J.E.D. discovered Wordpress and the availability of something called a blog. It said free so he immediately jumped in no questions asked (he is notorious for doing things like that).
Soon he was writing out his thoughts for the world to read. Eventually he even started writing out poems and short stories. Somewhere along the line he realized he was having fun and enjoying himself. Weird thing was, others seemed to enjoy it as well.
Now just over a year later there are hundreds of posts, thousands of comments and a few very weird highlights on the following pages with more coming every day. If you enjoy a little creativity, a bit of weirdness, a lot of silliness and an intellectual thought (Maybe even two, but no promises) why not hang out for a while and be entertained.
You can find the most recent content here or check out the categories below. Everyone is welcome and there is no cover charge. JED would be pleased if you shared what you thought. Comment boxes are everywhere. You can even get your friends involved by tweeting or posting to your favorite social sites.
JED Says: The main goal here is to have fun, both for me and for you. If you click through these pages and don't at least smile or chuckle a little I will de disappointed. If you have a suggestion to make this site or my writing better please share it with me by email: firstname.lastname@example.com, on twitter: @thenotoriousjed or on Facebook: JED's Playhouse. Thank you for stopping by and I hope you can stay a while.

I would like to perform deferred request-response type of processing. There may be concurrent request-response pairs exist at any instant. Using temporary queues between the sender(requestor) and reciever (responder) is the suggested way.
How do I create temporary queues in JMS?
Can I create the temp queue in code and the code portable?
Are there any other ways? Why not use a common queue and use message selector to identify the pair of sender and receivers?
Any suggestions will be appreciated.

A temporary queue is created with the createTemporaryQueue() in the QueueSession interface. Then, you can create the queueSender and the queueReceiver much like you would with permanent queues.
You can also use message selectors but they will almost certainly not perform as well as using a queue without message selectors.

Hello, my explorer has 225000 miles on it. When Im driving, it will accelerate just fine but when I slow down, there will be a clunk when it hits about 20mph, somewhere around 3rd to 2nd gears. I was told the transmission and brakes were fine. There is also a little bit of a clunk when shifting from park to reverse and drive. Is it possible I have a worn U-joint?

Kentucky is back in a familiar place, and so is its coach.
The Wildcats, the last unbeaten team in Division I, were a unanimous No. 1 in The Associated Press' college basketball poll on Monday, their first time on top since the final poll of 2002-03.
Only three schools have been No. 1 more often.
For first-year coach John Calipari, Kentucky is the third school he has taken to No. 1. He led Massachusetts to the top spot in 1994-95 and 1995-96, and Memphis in 2007-08.
Calipari is 40-5 while coaching the No. 1 team. It's a role he's familiar with, even if it's new territory for a roster filled with freshmen and sophomores that has fueled Kentucky's quick turnaround.
"We've gone from a guy that's not very good looking to just a beautiful young man," Calipari said with a laugh.
The Wildcats (19-0) moved up one spot, replacing Texas (17-2), which was No. 1 for two weeks before losing to Kansas State and Connecticut, both on the road. The Longhorns, who were ranked No. 1 for the first time in school history, dropped to sixth.
Kentucky's first game as the nation's No. 1 team will be at South Carolina tonight. Calipari isn't sure what to expect, but doesn't think the Wildcats will get too full of themselves.
"This is a pretty levelheaded group," he said.
Junior forward Patrick Patterson, who went through two underwhelming seasons under former coach Billy Gillispie, said he's not concerned about the Wildcats growing complacent.
"We want the respect of others and we have that now," Patterson said. "When we became No. 1, (Calipari) started talking about it and he wants it to motivate us. He said teams that he's had have kept the No. 1 and just ran with it, and that's just what he wants us to do and that's what we expect to do."
This is Kentucky's 89th week at No. 1, which trails only UCLA (134), Duke (111) and North Carolina (105).
Kansas, the only other No. 1 team this season, Villanova, Syracuse and Michigan State all moved up one place from last week to be second through fifth.
After Texas, Georgetown, Duke, West Virginia and Purdue rounded out the top 10.
North Carolina (12-7), the defending national champion and loser of three straight and four of five, did not receive a vote and dropped out of the poll for the first time since January 2006. The Tar Heels were sixth in the preseason poll.
Clemson, Northern Iowa and Mississippi State also dropped out of the Top 25 while Connecticut, Vanderbilt, New Mexico and UAB, all of whom were ranked earlier this season, moved into the rankings.
Kansas State and BYU led the second 10, with the Cougars' No. 12 ranking their highest since being 11th in February 1988.
Gonzaga was 13th, followed by Tennessee, Temple, Wisconsin, Pittsburgh, Mississippi, Connecticut and Ohio State. The last five teams were Vanderbilt, Georgia Tech, New Mexico, Baylor and UAB.

AYER - To Shaun A. Suhoski, one word describes this town where you can hop a commuter rail to Boston or quickly be on a ski slope: Resurgent.
Once seriously crippled by a slowdown in freight rail business and the closure of Fort Devens and the town's Army-connected economy in the mid-1990s, Ayer has rebounded, said Suhoski, the town administrator.
His list includes the arrival of new "green" companies, the expansion of food processing companies, and the renovation of a 216,000-square-foot warehouse into a manufacturing plant. Plus, the Nashoba Valley Medical Center, which has added medical office buildings, wants to build a $50 million expansion.
Ayer, Shirley, and Lunenburg are looking into regionalizing their schools. Suhoski said Ayer has excess capacity, a possible cost-saver for a tri-town system.
"Ayer is unique in retaining that friendly small town atmosphere, but also in providing full services to its residents at a tax rate among the lower third" in the state, said Suhoski.
He said community activism is strong and includes the creation within the past few years of the Ayer Education Foundation, which funnels donations to the schools.
Greenspace includes the Nashua River Rail Trail that terminates near Ayer's MBTA commuter rail station and public swimming in area ponds.
On a recent week, Realtor.com listed 35 single-family homes, ranging from $201,000 for a three-bed, one-bath, 1,274-square-foot home to $599,900 for a five-bed, 2.5-bath 3,050-square-foot home. Median price of a single-family home for 2007 was $277,500, according to Warren Group, which publishes real estate information.

"DNA Of Creativity" Exhibition
April 12-August 3, 2014
Featuring 40 collaborating artists, scientists and educators, this unique exhibition explores the power of fusing the energies of art and science to promote understanding and new ways of viewing the world. Presenting artwork created by four teams, this exhibition focuses on four separate initiatives.
Teams include: Sea Changes: Act, Urban Succession, PolyAesthetic Mapping: The Muses (PAMM) and View Art Now.
Sea Changes: Act will display coral-like glass art pieces along with a large installation to motivate community action around plastic pollution, over-fishing and climate change/acidification.
Urban Succession has created sculptural homes that fit the needs of specific species in urban settings. Select sculptures will be on display in addition to video documentation of animals experiencing these habitats.
Team PAMM developed a software application that will eventually be used as a survey tool to map a variety of aesthetic expressions.
Finally, View Art Now is developing a mobile app to include location and date-based art events searchable on the go that will be on display in the gallery. DNA of Creativity is a project initiated by the San Diego Visual Arts Network in 2011.
This exhibition will be on view April 12-August 3, 2014.

I believe you're talking about the article in Photo Techniques comparing the 16.7 megapixel Canon, the 10 MP Leica DMR and the Olympus 5 MP.
For those who didn't read it, the Cannon and Leica were almost dead heat, with the Canon being slightly better. The Olympus, at 5MP, was an also ran.
The best combination of all was the Canon mounted with Leica lenses. (does that mean the DMR was worse than it appeared, saved only by Leica lenses?). Comparison photos were posted showing a much sharper picture with the Canon used with Leica lens instead of the "L" Canon lens.
Unfortunately, the authors don't mention specific lenses used, though they are pictured with zooms. All their testing seems geared toward resolution as determining the winner.
I have no axes to grind here as I own some Canon, Leica and Zeiss lenses. The two sharpest lenses I own are a 35mm Summicron ASPH for my Leica M and a 135 f2 "L" lens for my Canon 7NE. They are breathtaking in terms of resolution and contrast.
However, neither of these lenses have ever made me say "Oh, wow!" the way three of my "softer" lenses have... the 50mm Summilux for the Leica M, the 80mm Summilux for the Leica R, and the 80mm f2 for my Contax 645.
I think digital photography evaluations over-emphasize resolution as the single most important criterion for picture quality. Anyone with a good portrait lens knows better.
Take care,

Today's the very last instalment in the #HOTNEW14 round-up. As we aggregate all the 'Hottest Of' in 2014, we cannot forget what keeps our site alive and thriving-- the commenters. Or trolls. Not every commenter is a troll, but we know a good half of you are.
We are approaching the end of the #HOTNEW14 roll out and year-end round up.
In many ways, it's surprising that we're still doing a list like this in 2014, as we've reached a point where music has, almost, gone entirely digital.
Kanye West put most of his attention, if not all of it, on fashion this year, and getting his foot in the high-end fashion door.
As one of the most anticipated segments of the #HOTNEW14 end-of-year rollout, HNHH is pleased to present our top 50 songs of the year. As always, you're gonna have to do some scrolling to find out the #1 hottest record.
Music videos have always been an integral part of hip-hop.
2014 may have been a terrible year for hip-hop in terms of record sales, but don't let the numbers fool you into thinking the year was uneventful. In this case, the numbers most definitely do lie.
The idea of a viral video is something music industry marketers dream of. Unfortunately, not everything goes viral. It takes a rare combination of things that professors get paid thousands a year to teach. Shit, they get tenure.
The hottest beats is a misnomer for this list of 20 productions that shaped the commercial sound of hip-hop culture in 2014.
Like we did last year, we'll be rolling out a slew of year-end lists to round up everything that went down in rap and r'n'b in easy-to-digest list-form.
Last week, Spotify announced, among other year-end lists, that Pharrell Williams' "Happy" was their most-streamed song of the year. Now, iTunes is saying it's their top-selling song of the year. Damn.
2013 has been a pretty crazy year for albums.
Mixtapes are a staple within the hip-hop genre, and as the genre continues to evolve with the advances of technology (aka the internet), so are mixtapes.
2013 was a great year for hip-hop fans. Pusha T finally released his long-awaited debut album My Name Is My Name and did not disappoint his fans. Kanye West christened himself a deity with Yeezus. J.
2013. What a year. There was a bit of the old, with veterans making major moves in front of and behind the mic, as well as keeping their relationship with law enforcement afloat.
2013 wasn't just a good year for music, we also saw some great and memorable album covers.
Drake is the poster boy for VIBE's year-end Race Issue, his slightly menacing portrait framed by such tag lines as "Are You A Racist?", "Kevin Hart Has White Power", "Taming Rev. Al Sharpton" and "Ku Klux Klan In 2014".
We break down all the biggest categories in Hip Hop and R&B, including songs, mixtapes, albums, videos and everything in between (including Trolls). Peep the official schedule for each of the lists below. So who made the Hottest Lists for 2013?
2013 was a big year in music with major artists dropping some game-changing albums, rising stars coming out of nowhere to surprise the hip-hop community and your usual hip-hop crews releasing tracks that were bangers.
Yesterday we kicked off our month of the Hottest of 2013 with the Most Searched Artists On HNHH. That's just the beginning though, as you can expect a lot more from us within the coming weeks, leading up to the New Year.

CHILLICOTHE -- The future of Ohio's juvenile offenders will be a highlighted concern with state officials after action taken during a Wednesday meeting.
During a meeting Wednesday of the Ohio Ex-Offender Re-entry Coalition, Kim Humphrey, re-entry administrator for the Department of Youth Services, proposed creating a juvenile branch of the re-entry coalition. According to 2011 figures, Humphrey said 26 percent of those released from the Department of Youth Services end up in prison within three years.

Angelina Jolie Wears Two Black Dresses in Tokyo, Cozies Up to Brad Pitt
Back in black! Angelina Jolie looked elegant as ever on Monday, July 29, when she screened her directorial debut, In the Land of Blood and Honey, at the United Nations University in Tokyo, Japan. The Oscar-winning actress wore dress from Michael Kors' Fall 2013 collection featuring a fitted bodice and flared satin skirt with a tulle underlay.
PHOTOS: All of Angelina Jolie's Us Weekly covers
"When I started down the road, making this film, I thought only of telling a story and doing my best to try to give a voice to survivors," Jolie, 38, told the audience. "But today I am here not only as a director, but as a campaigner, and a part of a global effort that is growing every day."
PHOTOS: Angelina Jolie's homes around the world
Jolie -- a special envoy to the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees -- used the event as an opportunity to speak out about sexual violence towards women. "Our aim must be to shatter impunity, so that rape can no longer be used as a weapon of war anywhere in the world as it was in Bosnia, and as it is today from Congo to Syria," Jolie explained. (In the Land of Blood and Honey, set in war-torn Bosnia, earned a Golden Globe nomination for Best Foreign Film in 2012.)
PHOTOS: How Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie built a life together
The first-time director, who underwent a preventative double mastectomy earlier this year, changed into a black, one-shoulder Saint Laurent dress for her fiance Brad Pitt's World War Z premiere later that night. The actors -- parents to Maddox, 11, Pax, 9, Zahara, 8, Shiloh, 6, and twins Vivienne and Knox, 5 -- looked more in love than ever, cozying up to each other on the red carpet and giving each other flirty glances.
Jolie will next direct Unbroken, the true story of a World War II pilot who was taken hostage by Japanese soldiers after crashing into the Pacific Ocean; she scouted filming locations in early July. Jolie next appears in the Disney movie Malecifent, slated for release in July 2014.

Remember Me
High in the mountains of Tennessee, Sons of Hippies was conceived amid fellow music lovers at a festival on a 700-acre farm on a sunny June afternoon; their name originated when Brazilian native Jonas Canales and Florida-bred Katherine Kelly probed familial bonds to discover they were, indeed, children of hippies. The duo's dreamily melodic but complexly synthesized music required the mentorship of pro-pain guitarist Tom Klimchuck who produced and played bass on the band's March '09 debut, warriors of the light, which received the critic's choice...

Make every year your milestone year! If we only were as confident in our youth as we are when we get older. I have done makeup on many photo shoots with women getting Boudoir photos done or are being photographed for a variety of different reasons. Most of these women, unless they are professional models, are over age 35. And I can say from personal experience too, that every year older, I am a little more confident, appreciative of my health and happy to be celebrating another year on this earth. And even if I am 20 lbs heavier, or not feeling in the best health, celebrating my successes and doing a little time in front of the camera makes me feel pretty damn good!
Ms. S is a friend of mine that was in town from Montreal for work, and she had the opportunity to stay over the weekend. Since she was going to be in a beautiful spot (White Rock, BC) and is a sports photographer herself, she asked if I would do her makeup and help coordinate a fashion-styled photo shoot. Given that she is from Montreal, Ms. S has a lot of style, finesse and an eye for fashion! She brought a variety of outfits with her, and gave me free reign with her hair and makeup. We worked with two different photographers, with different styles and in different locations. Part 1 was shot by Nomo Akisawa from Simply Sweet Photography. Nomo has a variety of fashion styled photo-shoots in her portfolio, and I love the style and her edits of some of the following photos she captured during our time together.
For her hair and makeup, Ms. S was really open to me using whatever colours and makeup that I wanted to use. It is a challenge sometimes to create a makeup look that stands out, and doesn't look like you are creating some ridiculous fashion-y look that could replicated or is even inspirational. Especially when you want your client to look and feel pretty too! So I concentrated on her eyes, using Kevyn Aucoin eyeshadows, and wetting the darkest purple and dragging it across the upper lid, close to the her lash line. I used the light green and highlight colours to blend, also using also Tease from the Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette. On her lips I used OCC Lip Tar in Ophelia and MAC Lip Pencil in Dervish. I love the way her eyes looked…and I added false lashes, of course too! Ms. S had her own eye pencils with her so I rimmed the top of her eye with her own deep purple, and then inside the lower water line with her own black pencil.

Bolivian President Evo Morales governs an increasingly unruly nation but shows few signs of changing his combative political agenda.

Evo Morales, Bolivia's populist president, has nationalized his country's energy industry. The decision will have specific economic ramifications, and possibly broader political ones in a region that lacks a coherent identity.

Secretary Rice and U.S. public diplomacy chief Karen Hughes travel to South America this week for the inauguration of Chile's first woman president, Michelle Bachelet. The trip could signal a new focus on South America, at a time when a growing number of leftist governments in the region pose questions for U.S. policies there.

In a region seen as turning leftward, forging alliances would seem a natural course of events. But Bolivian President Evo Morales' decision to nationalize the oil and gas industry is exposing tensions, causing experts to say there is more diffusion than alliance-building in Latin America.
This report encourages the U.S. government to redirect its policy toward Bolivia from "wait and see" to one with an emphasis on conflict prevention and preserving the democratic process in order to address the nation's many challenges. This report is also available in Spanish.

As head of Congress and the major political operator for President Evo Morales, Bolivia's Vice President Alvaro Garcia Linera stands in the eye of a political hurricane. The changes proposed by the Movement toward Socialism (MAS) government have unleashed protest from conservative sectors of society, leading to suspension of the Constituent Assembly called to revamp the nation's political institutions. Laura Carlsen from Center for International Policy interviews Alvaro Garcia Linera.

Alma Guillermoprieto writes about the historical emergence of a grass-roots party in Bolivia. Guillermoprieto argues that the revolution in Bolivia is an anomaly because there is no other country in Latin America where a grass-roots party has taken charge of a government and "whose members are poor and overwhelmingly Indian."

"Washington's reaction to [Evo] Morales' election, policies, and rhetoric has been to 'wait and see,'" says a new Council Special Report. "Yet after nearly nine months in office, the Morales administration's policy agenda has taken shape and, unfortunately, has exacerbated political, ethnic, and racial schisms in Bolivian society."

Joel D. Hirst says while an anti-racism bill is one step to fighting discrimination in Bolivia, the Bolivian government must not disregard the tenets of liberal democracy.

Williams argues that the status quo for peace operations in untenable and that greater U.S. involvement is necessary to enhance the quality and success of peacekeeping missions.

The brief version of a Highriser Christmas
Realise along the way that we have forgotten frozen peas, ABI has some. Realise along the way, we forgot the roast chickens. Mother will only eat vegetable then as ham and roast pork does not seem to agree with her. I don't mention that it about shock to the system of a large meal and not what the meal was.
Drive to ABI brother's house, 1 hour, set up and decorate table, cook roast vegetables. 1pm Bone Doctor and Little Jo arrive. Ten minutes later, Sister and Mother arrive. Chat, eat christmas dinner, set off for hospital to visit Step Father. Sister calls from her car. Tradie brother arriving in 15 minutes. Turn around and back to ABI brother's. Wait half an hour and Tradie Brother arrives with girlfriend G. Point to fridge where there served meals are and head off for hospital.
Sister, Bone Doctor and Little Jo leaving hospital as we arrive. Sister red eyed.
Sister stays while Bone Doctor takes Little Jo back to ABI brother's where Tradie Brother and G are.
Supposed to be a short visit to hospital, but Step Father did not seem to want to doze off, given he has only a few days now. Sister had already cracked badly. R was next. Mother showed Step Father jewellry she had around her neck that he bought for her thirty plus years ago, that was the end of her. Highriser left the room and cracked. ABI brother left the room and cracked. Marvellous that we all did it seperately but of course in such awful circumstances, we had a good laugh too. Step Father's voice has pretty well gone, but all he wanted to talk about was Little Jo, or his Skip as he calls her (Joey, kangaroo, skipping joey, Skip. It is such a devastating shame that she is too young to remember him. She sees him and says birdies. She want's him to show her his now sold 100 odd budgeriegars.
Back to ABI brother's house for pudding and present giving and socialising with Tradie Brother's newish girlfriend G.
Finally leave at 6.10 to head home and realise we are supposed to pick up Dame M's Boarder and his female hairdresser friend to go to Brother Friends for second round of christmas, a tradition for about twenty years.
Call Dame M's Boarder and tell him we will be an hour late. Call Brother Friends and tell them we will be an hour late. Although R would have gone straight on, I am going home to shower. I was hot and sweaty and just need a few minutes at home.
Pick up Dame M's Boarder and hairdresser friend and drive half an hour to Brother Friends. Pleasant and relaxed evening, but all we really wanted to was be home after a such a bitch of a day. Leave Brother Friends at 11pm. R collapsed to his bed, and I am here doing my writing therapy.
Highriser thinks he will take a very selfish view of christmas next year. Not only was this the smallest number of people for christmas dinner, for various reasons, it was, as I warned R, just a lousy day.
Oh yes, Highriser drove the new car today. I turned on the ignition and the oddometer said 7km. By the time it arrived home tonight, it said something in the 200 plus km.
Feel lucky I am absoulutely whacked and you only got the short version.

On December 29, 2014 NMFS announced that listing the pinto abalone as threatened or endangered under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) is not warranted. This decision was informed by the December 2014 Pinto Abalone Status Review report which compiled the best available information for the species. The Status Review and ESA-listing decision was conducted in response to two petitions submitted to NMFS in 2013.
On July 1, 2013 the Natural Resources Defense Council petitioned NMFS to list the pinto abalone throughout its range as threatened or endangered under the ESA, and to designate critical habitat for the species. On August 5, 2013 NMFS received a petition from the Center for Biological Diversity to list the pinto abalone under the ESA. The petitioners identified a number of potential threats to the species, including overfishing, poaching, sea otter predation, and environmental change. These potential threats are discussed in the December 2014 Pinto Abalone Status Review.
The pinto abalone ranges from Southeast Alaska to Baja California, Mexico. The pinto abalone is currently identified as a Species of Concern under the ESA by NMFS.

The hubs and I used to go away for a three day weekend at least once a year sometimes twice. Since our 5th child was born we have not been once. I know this is a luxury for a lot of people so I am not complaining, I just know it is so helpful for me to have a refreshing weekend away from it all and it is good for our marriage! It has been a little over 2 yrs now and I am really ready to have another weekend away before #7 comes along at the end of March (most likely). My in-laws used to watch the kids but it dates and weekends away were never important to them and so they don't understand the importance to us, not to mention they aren't just watching 4 (which is how many they had) but would have to watch 6, twoof which are babies and all are under the age of 8. My husband is super sensitive about putting others out (especially family) to watch our kids, and I do not trust many people other than family and I don't think there is anyone I can trust for a weekend. Anyway I guess my question is: Would you split kids up between family members? Ask the inlaws even though they aren't offering? Just forgo weekends away until kids are older? Maybe ask friends to keep them? What have you done and what would you suggest?
How do you find a babysitter for a weekend away?
~Melissa Wife to Brian (5/8/04) and Mommy to 7 munchkins: DS '05, DD '06 (T21), DS '07, DD '09, DD '10, DS '11, and DS '13
I would split kids up if you found family agreeable. We too think its important, not that we go a lot, maybe oncea year but we do go on dates once a month, at least.
I don't have anyone I could ask for that anyways. Having a hard enough time figuring out who will stay with them one night while I'm in the hospital having this baby. Having time away was something we are ok with giving up by having a large family. But I guess if it's important to you then you'll find a way. I don't think splitting them up btwn people is a bad idea. MIght be the best option you have if the inlaws aren't ok taking all of them.
We're planning to go away for a few days this summer for our 20th anniversary. We're hoping to split the dc up between DH's parents and my sister. Unfortunately, we've learned that none of the extended family handles all 5 for more than a few hours very well, so splitting them up is the only option. We also have a very reliable high school sitter we could probably ask, but will start with family first. Good luck!
Barb dd 6/00, ds 1/03, dd 6/06, dd/ds 2/09
Honestly, we just didn't go away for a full weekend until...well, if I tell you it might scare you, lol. We did do an occasional night away with the current nursing baby along, but a full weekend simply couldn't happen. We have no family living anywhere nearby, our friends have large families of their own, and we just didn't feel right with hiring a semi-stranger from church. For the handful of nights that we went away (with the baby) for just the night, we split up the kids between a couple of kind and willing friends.
Our first full weekend away was for our 25th wedding anniversary (told you it would scare you, lol)....and we went to visit our oldest son and his wife! So we still didn't really get away from kids !
I really, really hope that when I'm a grandparent I can give my kids the gift of a weekend away while I watch the grandkids. I know that our marriage didn't suffer for our inability to spend 2 or 3 days alone, just the two of us, but it would've been nice. Now that we've got grown kids who can watch the younger ones, we do get away every few months, and I've got to say it's nice.
If it's really important to you and your dh, I hope you can find a way to make it work . And if not, be sure to snatch those snippets of time that you do have, and make the most of them.

DH and I went on an overnight a couple months ago. If you can't find someone to take them for a whole weekend, start with a night here and there. I know for myself, I'd take just about any of my friend's kids for a night, but would have to really think about giving up my whole weekend. I was surprisingly rejuvenating, much more than I would have thought a 24 hour get-away could be!
Also, build in date nights often. It doesn't have to even be an overnight to be good for your marriage!

The only times we have gotten away overnight we've left the kids with dh's 25y single son. He loves getting his younger brothers all to himself. Otherwise we would never even get a night out.

I would definately split the kids up. It's only for a few days, the older ones could go individually to a friend's house or to a different relatives. You know which kids would best go with the younger ones, but this is something I've been thinking about too as my mom gets older. I think next time I go I'll send 3 to her and 2 to my brothers, or just send the oldest 2 to sleep over at two different friend's houses, or go while my oldest is at Scout camp out or something like that.

Thank you ladies for your thoughtful replies. It is so helpful to see what others think and do themselves.

My brother gives us one night a year, (he would do more if we asked but we don't like to take advantage) and then every couple of years he does 2 nights. Now that ODD is 19, that may change.

When I was pregnant with yds, about 3 years ago, we went on a cruise for our tenth anniversary. We were gone for about 10 days, we split up kids between the grandparents, I would NOT do it again. But, a lot of WHY I would not do it again is due to mil and her behavior, so hoping that doesn't apply to your situation. Watching a first grader and an almost 2 yo was too much for both sets, for that length of time. I decided after that experience that vacations/weekends away without the kids would have to wait for 18 years, or until everyone was in school all day. Sorry, but you may just be in the same boat.
However, a few weeks ago dh and I did go to a local hotel for one night without the kids, to celebrate our anniversary. My parents watched all 3 kids, and everyone did fine. It's a start. In February 2015 Dh wants us to go on a cruise with another couple we are friends with. We could save up the money for it, the kids will be 11, 6 and 4 then, but I still think finding a sitter will keep us home.
