August 3rd, 2012
As the rover Curiosity makes its journey to Mars, food scientists on Earth are exploring whether astronauts with a green thumb will be the key to feeding at least a six-person crew on a future mission to the Red Planet.
"The big challenge is having a food system that is going to work for that long-duration mission," says Michele Perchonok, NASA's Advanced Food Technology Project Scientist.
A "Martian greenhouse" is one of the food systems being considered for a manned mission to Mars, which isn't scheduled until the 2030s.
It takes six months just to get to Mars and the team in charge of food, including Perchonok, is responsible for feeding the crew every day for two and a half years.
"If we didn't go with the plant-based bioregenerative food system, and all we did was provide packaged food for a 1,000-day mission for a crew of six, it's about 20,000 pounds of food plus packaging," she says.
"You need to grow it, and that's part of the reason we have some of the experiments that we do on the [International Space] Station," says astronaut Cady Coleman, whose most recent mission included a six-month stay on the ISS.
Such experiments include growing plants in a water and mineral solution, as would be done in a Martian greenhouse.
Perchonok says they have been able to grow some plants on the Space Station but "not in the quantities that do anything more than, 'Oh look, I can have a piece of lettuce today.'"
Since a piece of lettuce won't feed a crew of six, growing a large quantity of food is one of the many culinary challenges.
Food scientists recognize that their job is not just important for the space travelers' physical health but also their mental health.
"Certainly psychologically to see bright fresh colors of fruits and vegetables and crunchy textures is going to be helpful," says Perchonok.
As scientists continue their work on growing tomatoes, bell peppers and onions in a Martian garden, they are no longer burdened with one very important part of the Mars food puzzle: Chocolate. There is something about being in space that gives people, like Coleman, a sweet tooth.
"People that I knew didn't eat sweets almost at all down on the ground would be eying the chocolate, when it came up in those care packages, with real intent," she says.
Perchonok didn't need to go to space to appreciate the importance of having chocolate on a Martian menu.
"I don't know about anyone else, but I couldn't go without chocolate for two and a half years," says Perchonok.
"We did do a shelf life study, and cocoa powder lasted for five years. So, we know we can at least provide them with cocoa powder to make chocolate," she says.

We're getting into the home stretch of the high school football regular season and the playoff races are about to take shape. Week seven is a little bit lite on big-time match-ups involving Ohio State recruiting targets, but there are still some quality games being played around the state of Ohio.1. Key Central Ohio BattleOne of the biggest games in Ohio this weekend is in the Columbus area as Hilliard Darby (5-1) travels to face undefeated Dublin Coffman (6-0). Darby is on the ropes after losing to Upper Arlington last weekend and will need to win three out of its last four games to make the playoffs. With games against currently undefeated Dublin Coffman and Hilliard Davidson, that could be a very tall task.Coffman has some talented senior prospects in senior wide receiver Marcus Davis and senior defensive back Taylor Williams but the two to watch in this game for Ohio State fans are Hilliard Darby junior athlete Caleb Day and Coffman junior quarterback James Walsh. Day has a verbal offer from the Buckeyes and Walsh is one of the top junior quarterbacks in the state of Ohio. Walsh has camped with Ohio State and the Buckeyes are showing early interest.2. Make or break time for many commitsWith just four games remaining, it's make or break time for many of the senior commits as they will need to have some big performances down the stretch to push their teams into the playoffs. Coming into the weekend Olentangy (3-3) and Josh Perry, Lancaster (3-3) and Luke Roberts, and Pickerington Central (3-2) with Roger Lewis and Jacoby Boren, are all in situations where they probably need to win out to guarantee a trip to the playoffs.In addition to those three teams, Taft (4-2) with Adolphus Washington and Dwayne Stanford, and Bedford (4-2) with Tyvis Powell have games this weekend that they can't afford to lose as their teams are lurking just outside of playoff range right now.3. And then there were twoHeading into week seven only two committed prospects are playing for undefeated teams and those two are Canton (Ohio) GlenOak running back Bri'onte Dunn and Steubenville defensive back Najee Murray. Both Dunn and Murray's teams are sitting at 6-0 with winnable games this weekend and both teams are currently slotted as the number one seeds in their respective regions.While those two schools are the only undefeated programs with an OSU verbal on their roster, Trotwood-Madison is also looking to make the jump to 7-0 this weekend and of course the Rams have a pair of Ohio State recruiting targets in senior safety Bam Bradley and junior cornerback Cameron Burrows.

The Power of Independent Thinking
Clifford Thies on the American Economic Association and Richard T. Ely
Recorded: Monday, November 28, 2011

The information provided here is meant to give you a general idea about each of the medications listed below. Only the most general side effects are included, so ask your doctor if you need to take any special precautions. Use each of these medications as recommended by your doctor, or according to the instructions provided. If you have further questions about usage or side effects, contact your doctor.
Prescription Medications
- Alendronate (Fosamax)
- Risedronate (Actonel)
- Ibandronate (Boniva)
- Zoledronic acid (Zometa, Reclast)
Hormone replacement therapy (HRT)
- Estrogen alone (also called estrogen replacement therapy or ERT)
- Estrogen and progestin HRT (also called combined HRT)
- Raloxifene (Evista)
- Calcitonin (Miacalcin)
- Denosumab (Prolia)
- Teriparatide (Forteo)
The main bisphosphonates approved for the treatment of osteoporosis are:
- Alendronate sodium (Fosamax)
- Risedronate sodium (Actonel)
- Ibandronate (Boniva)
- Zoledronic acid (Zometa, Reclast) which is administered through the vein
Other bisphosphonates include pamidronate (Aredia) and etidronate (Didronel).
Among postmenopausal women with osteoporosis, bisphosphonates can provide the following health benefits:
- Reduced bone loss
- Increased bone density in the spine and hip
- Reduced risk of spine and hip fractures
Bisphosphonates that are taken by mouth should be taken on an empty stomach. Therefore, it is recommended that you take it first thing in the morning with a full glass of water, at least 30 minutes before eating, drinking, or taking other medications. To minimize side effects, remain in an upright position for at least 30 minutes after taking this medication.
Possible side effects for bisphosphonates include:
- Heartburn
- Nausea or vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Constipation
- Bone, joint, or muscle pain (rare)
- Jaw bone damage (rare)
- Increased risk of an unusual thigh bone fracture
Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)
Common brand names include:
- Premarin
- Ogen
- Estrace
- Estraderm
- Estratab
ERT has been used for both the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. ERT has been shown to reduce bone loss, increase bone density in the spine and hip, and reduce the risk of spine and hip fractures in postmenopausal women. ERT is available as a pill or skin patch.
Although ERT may cut the risk of osteoporosis, it's important to note that recent research shows a strong association between longer-term ERT or HRT use and a significantly increased risk of invasive breast cancer , strokes , heart attacks , and blood clots. Be sure to discuss all of the health risks and benefits of hormone therapy with your doctor to determine if it is right for you.
Common brand names include:
- Activella
- Femhrt
- Ortho-Prefest
- Premphase
- Prempro
Combined HRT has been used for both the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. Combined HRT has been shown to reduce bone loss, increase bone density in the spine and hip, and reduce the risk of spine and hip fractures in postmenopausal women. Combined HRT is available as a pill.
Although combined HRT may cut the risk of osteoporosis, it's important to note that recent research shows a strong association between longer-term ERT or HRT use and a significantly increased risk of invasive breast cancer, strokes, heart attacks, and blood clots. Be sure to discuss all of the health risks and benefits of hormone therapy with your doctor to determine if it is right for you.
Other Medications
Raloxifene is one of a class of drugs called selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs). It helps prevent bone loss at the spine, hip, and total body and may increase bone mass. This medication may also reduce the risk of spine fractures, and there is some evidence that it can also reduce the risk of breast cancer. Raloxifene is available as a pill and should be taken once a day, with or without meals.
Possible side effects include:
Calcitonin is a naturally occurring hormone that slows bone loss, increases bone density, and reduces the risk of spinal fractures. It may also help reduce or relieve the pain of bone fractures. Calcitonin is approved by FDA for women who are at least five years past menopause. It is available as an injection or a nasal spray.
Possible side effects associated with the injected form of calcitonin include:
- Allergic reaction
- Flushing of the face and hands
- Urinary frequency
- Nausea
- Skin rash
Nasal calcitonin may cause a runny nose.
Denosumab, given as an injection, is a type of monoclonal antibody. The medication works by targeting cells called osteoclasts, which break down bone. Denosumab is intended for postmenopausal women who have osteoporosis and are at a high risk for fractures .
Common side effects include:
- Back pain
- Pain in the extremities
- Pain in muscles, tendons, ligaments, and bones
- High cholesterol levels
- Bladder infections
Teriparatide is given as an injection from a pen. It is a man-made form of parathyroid hormone, which stimulates bone growth. Teriparatide is indicated for people with osteoporosis who are at high risk for fractures.
Common side effects include:
- Neck pain
- Headache
- Weakness
- Nausea and vomiting
- High blood pressure
- Lightheadedness and fainting
- Rash
- Sweating
Special Considerations
Whenever you are taking a prescription medication, take the following precautions:
- Take your medication as directed. Do not change the amount or the schedule.
- Do not stop taking them without talking to your doctor.
- Do not share them.
- Know what the results and side effects may be. Report them to your doctor.
- Some drugs can be dangerous when mixed. Talk to a doctor or pharmacist if you are taking more than one drug. This includes over-the-counter medication and herb or dietary supplements.
- Plan ahead for refills so you don't run out.

BCSO arrested a Panama City Beach man Wednesday after conducting an investigation into allegations Palmer molested a child under the age of 12.
Arrested was 27 year old Tyler Russell Palmer.
A complaint was filed by a family member of the victim on February 16th.
The family member stated the juvenile complained that on several occasions, while watching TV with Palmer, he rubbed her genitals with his hand and asked her "does it feel good".
The victim was interviewed by a Child Protection Team member at the Gulf Coast Children's Advocacy Center. The victim was able to describe in detail what Palmer allegedly did to her, as well as the fact that during an incident in November of 2012, she told him to stop and he did not.
Palmer was arrested and charged with three counts of lewd and lascivious molestation on a victim less that 12 years of age.

Several weeks have passed since Novella Carpenter was in town as the final event of Reading Together 2014. During that time, we have been busy collecting statistics, photos, and feedback about this year's program.
For instance, did you know:
Of course, we've always believed that last point to be true, but these results affirm it. And it won't be long before we start the process all over again to select a title (or titles?) for Reading Together 2015. Have a suggestion? Use the Contact link to the right and let us know!
Until next year,
We've just received this photo and a note, transcribed below, from Novella about her visit to Kalamazoo...
Karen,Thanks again for the good times in Kalamazoo!
What I really loved about K:1. It felt like home; everyone there was so welcoming and down to earth. It was like meeting old friends.
2. Conversation. You guys know how to ask questions, be honest, and you all are so curious! It's an amazing & rare thing these days.
3. Places that matter. I was only in 'Zoo for one night but got to experience a lot—the Food Co-op, Tabitha Garden and the Art Museum/KIA, and the food trucks on the square, and of course, the Library and K College campus—these are all awesome, beautiful, functional, fun, accessible places where the town can grow and thrive.
Anyway, I had a blast—thanks for the opportunity and I'm telling my friends about Kalamazoo!
Love, Novella (and Franny)
It wasn't until I read Farm City: The Education of an Urban Farmer for the second time that I really grasped the enormity of Novella Carpenter's drive to prove herself as a farmer, which, at times she says, felt like "the mission of an imbecile."
It's hard to imagine a more unconventional – or difficult - way of carving out an existence for oneself: a squatter on land in an urban neighborhood that initially doesn't feel safe. But it turns out the garbage strewn lot next to her apartment and Oakland's "down and out qualities" are just right for Carpenter and her boyfriend, Bill, to put down roots of all kinds.
The rollicking good ride we get to go on with Carpenter includes massive slug extermination in which the slimy, primitive creatures are ripped in two and then squished between boards (this is organic gardening, after all), prolifically pooping poultry, bees, pigs, rabbits, dumpster diving and scrounged stuff from street corners. Carpenter possesses a love of making something useful again, which she describes as "resurrecting the abandoned." The folks we meet come to life on the page: Lana ("anal spelled backwards"), monks, men that live in wheelless parked cars. The farm changes the neighborhood and the author. Against odds and convention, Carpenter not only exists, but she thrives.
I can't wait to meet her this week!

The topic of buying local food stuffs is not only a significant message of the Kalamazoo Reading Together book selections, but it is also an important message nation-wide.
This morning (4-3-14), on Good Morning America, celebrity chef Mario Batali prepared a meal that cost roughly $1.40 per serving while promoting the purchase of local food from area farmers' markets. Here in the Kalamazoo area, we have some great ones. Here is a link to a complete listing.
So if you can't plant your own garden or don't have room for all of the wonderful fruits and vegetables that can thrive In Michigan, plan to visit one of the local markets!
~ Judy Bosshart, Reading Together Steering Committee
As I read The American Way of Eating and Farm City, I became curious about the use of local foods and sustainability at Western Michigan University. This led me to investigate what was happening in the way of sustainable food practices at WMU. What follows is a brief summary of what I learned.
The Dining Services web pages are filled with information on local food sources and initiatives to reduce waste in the dining halls. These pages also take users to a map of regional farmer's markets, lists of recyclables, and an introduction to the Food Diversion Initiative. The latter was started in 2011 as a sustainable way to reuse pre-consumer vegetable and fruit waste. Rather than removing the waste through garbage disposals or to landfills, the Food Diversion Initiative collects the food waste in large bins which are picked up and returned on a regular basis by Bearfoot Farms. The farm uses this waste to feed their pigs or make compost to enrich their soil. At the Dining Services web site there is a video explaining and demonstrating these process for you. To date, WMU is the only one of the 15 Michigan state universities to be practicing sustainability at this level.
Many readers may be familiar with the building at the southeast corner of Howard and W. KL Avenue that used to house the University Bookstore. It is now the WMU Office of Sustainability. I received a tour of the facility, learned about the history of the Office of Sustainability, and about several student projects it supports. In April 2010 the Student Garden Organization with the assistance of the University's landscape services, community gardeners, and Tillers International began the Stadium Drive Community Garden project, a well thought-out and designed vegetable garden. This project was very visible to those driving or walking by the intersection of Howard Street and Stadium Drive. In 2011, those who shared in the work of the garden had grown about 800 pounds of food.
About this same time, The Office of Sustainability was working with student interns to plan, plant, and harvest the vegetable garden at The Gibbs House on Parkview Ave. The Gibbs House provided a program that allowed students from several disciplines to experiment with native and edible plants. Produce from this garden was sold at a farm stand manned by students, canned, distributed to local food banks, or donated to WMU Catering Services. The total yield of produce from this garden in 2011 and 2012 was over 2,500 pounds. In 2013 the garden at The Gibbs House was closed to make room for a new industrial venture on the Parkview campus, it was decided that more garden space could be created near the Stadium Drive Community Garden.
Gardens are not the only projects supported by the Office of Sustainability. Non-motorized transportation, recycling, aquaponics, bee keeping, and vermiculture are among the other interests of the Office of Sustainability. To learn more about this forward-thinking WMU office, view this slideshow annual report. For those interested in working with the Office of Sustainability, part-time student jobs, assistantships, internships, and volunteer opportunities are available. The Office of Sustainability also sponsors events for the greater Kalamazoo community.
Within the department of Family and Consumer Sciences are the Dietetics and Food Service Administration programs. Students electing to study Dietetics or Food Service Administration are involved with food processing at all levels of production.
Students graduating from the Dietetics program can apply for an internship with an emphasis in Sustainable Food Systems. Dietetic interns complete a series of six rotations selected from 25-30 sites. Interns in this program also spend four weeks in a school system working with the food service manager. Once a month the students meet on campus and take a field trip to a local sustainable food location in the Kalamazoo area such as the Kellogg Dairy Farm, Can-Do Kitchen, and the People's Food Co-op.
The undergraduate major in Food Service Administration was recently revised and starting in Fall 2014 will include an emphasis on sustainable food systems. Students will take three courses that focus on food and sustainability. The first is an introductory course, followed by courses that consider local farm-to-table initiatives and global food systems and sustainability. The revisions to this major are intended to prepare food service professionals to be competent in current trends in the field, including a growing interest in sustainable food practices.
For those considering a career in sustainable food dietetics or food service administration, go to the department's informative web page.
There is so much to learn about sustainable food practices. Western Michigan University is a great place to start! I am pleased to say that sustainable food practices are alive and well on the campus where I have spent the past 16 years of my career.

This spring we are inspired by two books that explore the journey of food from farm to table – whether that farm is a large operation fueled by the efforts of migrant workers or something that starts as simply as a personal devotion turning a nearby urban patch into a garden.
Novella Carpenter's memoir Farm City shows how in small steps we can start something simple and transform it into something greater than ourselves. Her experience of growing beyond the garden to include raising animals on a small scale in an urban space is the inspiration behind upcoming programs such as Raising Animals for Food and The Farming Life. People's Food Co-op will offer a Cooking Demonstration using fresh and local ingredients. Beyond Food for Thought will bring together a variety of people sharing how they turned small ideas gleaned here and there into life-changing actions; and we've also planned how-to's on Container Gardening and a Farmers Market 101 where you can learn how to select produce and build relationships with local farmers.
As a journalist, Tracie McMillan goes undercover in The American Way of Eating to reveal the journey of food produced and distributed en masse until reaching its final destination on our plate. Her writing encouraged us to learn more about local stories and challenges of food and as a result, our community has come together in collaboration to present and offer to you The Farmworker Story as told by former farmworkers who advocate for safe and dignified working conditions. The Center for Health Equity will open dialog about Food Security or Food Justice: Does it Really Matter? We also have a Midday Film Series of three food documentaries; and we look forward to sharing the Midwestern food experience with authors Peggy Wolff and Bonnie Jo Campbell.
In addition to a grand variety of "side" program selections to choose from, our plate would not be complete without the main dishes: the Reading Together Committee is proud to present to you About the Author programs, where you will be able to meet and hear firsthand the experiences from each of our featured authors Novella and Tracie.
Our Kalamazoo Community will undoubtedly have plenty of food for thought throughout this season, and we look forward to reading, learning, and sharing food ideas (and food!) with you!
~ Jessica L. Enget, Reading Together Steering CommitteeAssociate Librarian, Portage District Library
Interest is building in Reading Together especially for the first book, The American Way of Eating. Three times already this week as I was out and about, people have mentioned the book to me…. they are just reading it, their book group will be discussing it, they are looking forward to the author visits.
One book group I know of, discussed both titles this week. I hear there was good conversation and comments that food is a good theme for this year. They appreciated reading two related books.
My book group will talk about The American Way of Eating later this week over dinner at a local restaurant. Usually we meet in someone's home, so this will be a treat. I'm sure it will be good conversation over good food. We'll talk about Farm City in March.
One of the (perhaps obvious) reasons these particular books were selected for Reading Together this year is because Kalamazoo is such a vibrant food community. Several local agencies have provided input in planning our March/April programs and/or will be participating in those programs. There is a third way to become involved: To help spread the word about the good and important work these and other organizations are doing, we will have, at every scheduled Reading Together event, a one-stop display where attendees can pick up literature about local food-related programs, events, and/or services. We call this our Partners Potluck.
Any organizations interested in participating in the Partners Potluck can go to the contact link found on the right margin to express interest and obtain more information.
I can't say I've ever lived next door to someone attempting to live as Novella Carpenter does at Ghost Town Farms, i.e., raising not only vegetables but also animals for food.
I imagine the challenges for both the farmer and the neighbor are both complex and sensitive, and I was particularly interested to read about this unfortunate situation in Minnesota.
At the very beginning of her book The American Way of Eating, Tracie McMillan writes, "Like all myths, the idea that only the affluent and educated care about their meals has spread not because it is true, but because parts of it are. Healthier food is more expensive; that much is true. So is the fact that it can be hard to find in poor neighborhoods. And yet it requires an impossible leap of logic to conclude from these facts that only the rich care about their meals" (2). McMillan explains that she had bought into this myth—that home-cooked, healthy, fresh food was "for the rich"—until, as a writer "covering the poverty beat" for a small magazine, she profiled a young New York girl who was attending a cooking class (3). For the first time, McMillan began to ask herself why it was easier and cheaper to eat junk food than it was to eat healthy food. She asked herself, "Why is it so difficult to eat well?" (9), and that question launched her investigation of the American food system and remains at the heart of her book.
On Tuesday, October 8, Kalamazoo College's Mary Jane Underwood Center for Civic Engagement and Farms to K will present a public screening of the recently-released documentary, A Place at the Table, that takes up McMillan's question and asks us to consider why 50 million Americans—1 in 4 children—don't know where their next meal is coming from, let alone have the resources to ensure that that meal contains healthy, fresh, food. The film, by the producers of Food, Inc., traces the story of three food insecure Americans "who maintain their dignity even as they struggle just to eat" (Place at the Table). Following the screening, there will be a discussion of hunger in Kalamazoo, led by Phyllis Hepp, of Kalamazoo Loaves & Fishes, and Dayon Woodford, a K College student working on a senior thesis on food access in Kalamazoo.
This screening of A Place at the Table is open to the public and takes place from 7 pm - 9 pm Tuesday, October 8 in the Recital Hall of the Fine Arts Building on the campus of Kalamazoo College.

Sky crane touchdown system lowers Mars rover "Curiosity" onto surface, artist rendering provided by NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory
All eyes are on the NASA rover Curiosity. It is poised to begin drilling into a Martian rock soon.
There's less attention being paid to another Mars rover -- Opportunity. The older rover is quietly embarking on its tenth year of exploration.
Compared to Curiosity, Opportunity is smaller and doesn't carry the same high-tech tools. But since landing in January 2004, it has made many discoveries including that Mars was once warmer and wetter than today.
Opportunity and its twin Spirit were only supposed to explore for three months, but both outlasted their original mission. Opportunity remains healthy and is studying interesting rocks in a massive crater. Spirit lost communication with Earth in 2010 shortly after getting stuck in Martian sand.

Academicians, activists, private sector and ordinary people have criticised paying sitting allowances to Members of Parliament and senior public servants in the face of poverty and rising costs of living for ordinary Tanzanians.
In a survey by The Guardian yesterday, most people said paying such money was unjustified when a significant number of Tanzanians survived on less than one dollar a day.
Ananilea Nkya, Executive Director of the Tanzania Media Women Association (TAMWA) described the sitting as "daylight robbery", which should be condemned by all Tanzanians.
"It's totally against the principles of good governance…everybody, every Tanzanian, must condemn the package. We have to join forces and aggressively fight against sitting allowances to the MPs," said Nkya.
She said the package should be scrapped immediately, noting: "This should be done regardless of whether the allowances are justified by law or customs or any regulation."
Nkya said the allowances were being paid while millions of Tanzanians were facing critical problems, including poor health services, education, power crisis and shortages of other social services.
A political scientist and lecturer at the University of Dar es Salaam (UDSM), Dr Benson Bana criticised sitting allowances to the MPs and senior civil servants, saying: "My stand has always been clear on this issue. There is no justification of paying allowances to both MPs and senior government executives while executing their routine duties."
Bana, who is an expert in human resources management, said there was no scientific evidence that
From Page 1
sitting allowances could serve as a motivation to employees.
He added: "Sitting allowances to public leaders was not-duty facilitation allowance in meetings…it is not brain-facilitation allowance in meeting…it cannot be used as a motivational ingredient for improving performance of public leaders."
The don said sitting allowances could be justified if paid after the respective leaders had worked beyond official hours, and not while executing their duties during the official hours.
Jaliath Rangi, Programme Officer of Dar es Salaam-based Human Development Trust (HDT) suggested that the billions of shillings currently being paid as sitting allowances to the MPs should be channelled to the pro-poor development programmes — roads infrastructure, construction of schools, water projects, etc.
He said it was unreasonable to pay huge sums of money in sitting allowances to the MPs, noting: "Monthly salaries and other allowances given to them are more than enough."
Kamili Mmbando, coordinator of programmes of Dar es Salaam-based public relations firm, Behaviour Change Communication (BCC) criticised the sitting allowances to the MPs, but was of the view that allowances to the public servants should stay.
"MPs have many allowances…these should be scrapped. But it is unfair to scrap allowances for public servants who are lowly-paid. Allowances serve as incentives to them," said Mmbando.
The public views come in the wake of pressure from opposition MPs, led by Chadema legislators to scrap sitting allowances on the premise that the package amounted to misuse of public resources.
After extensive and heated debates over the issue in the august House, the Prime Minister, Mizengo Pinda said recently that the MPs' allowances were a constitutional matter and that they could not be scrapped just like that.
On Thursday opposition leader in the Parliament, Freeman Mbowe was quoted as saying that Chadema planned to write a letter to the Clerk of National Assembly not to give the party's MPs sitting allowances.

Preview of Skywatcher AZ EQ6 Mount

I think the fundamental periodic error will be OK. The bigger challenge is the gears. If they still use a stepper drive like the EQ6, the gearing should be simple and the periodic error due to the gears should be low.

The encoder feedback is rather coarse: 6356 count (or 25424 ticks)/360 degrees (which is approx. 3.4 arc-min resolution) for push to. Note: 6356 = 2x2x7x227 so most likely the encoder is a Renishaw magnetic tape based.
Interesting good enough for goto but not really good enough for imaging.
I looked at using a mouse laser sensor with 5000 ticks/inch and a 8" ring - better but given you need a 10x sample rate to get better accuracy.. still beats this through!

At Hourglass Angel, the products we are most frequently asked about address our customers' desire to shape and sculpt the midsection. In fact, that's where our name Hourglass Angel comes from: the hourglass shape of a woman's body that is created when the midsection is highlighted. So we wanted to dedicate a special edition of the blog to this style of product, as there are many kinds of shapers that work on the midsection and choosing the right one to suit your needs is essential to achieving the effect that you're looking for.
The essential item to consider if you're looking to combine dramatic results with long-term support for slimming in the the area of the waist is the SlimVest. This runaway best-seller utilizes compression to create thermal activity in the midsection. That means wearers look visibly slimmer the moment they put on their SlimVest and often report sustained loss of inches with extended wear. Follow the instructions to achieve the best performance from this garment and see why so many of our customers rely on this garment on a daily basis.
If you're a post-partum mom the Belly Bandit is a must-have. This adjustable band wraps around your waist as you recover your pre-pregnancy shape. The pressure created by the Belly Bandit benefits wearers in many ways, from reducing the long-term appearance of stretchmarks and extra skin to aiding in recovery.
If you want to integrate your shaping into a garment you're not afraid to show off, you will love the Glamouflage Cupped Shaping Cami with Lace by Skinnygirl Smoothers n' Shapers. It's glamorous look and pretty detailing makes it an accessory to style and slimming.
Fans of tight-lacing absolutely must see the Silk Floral Brocade Corset. This is a maximum control garment.

I am 14 and I do not have my period yet. I have been in a relationship with a guy for 4 months, and feel ready to have sex, but I don't know what do since I don't have my period. Help?
First up, you and your boyfriend should make absolutely sure you are ready for sex and all the responsibilities that come with it. Both of you should sit down together and read Ready or Not? The Scarleteen Sex Readiness Checklist and decide if you have what it take to keep up a safe, happy and responsible sex life.
If you are totally sure you pass all the criteria, then you take all the proper precautions when engaging in sexual activity. That means using condoms and water-based lube. Hormonal birth control, however, is a no-go because you haven't started your period yet. Even though you haven't started your period yet, you have to use condoms because there's always that chance that you might start ovulating around the time you have sex. Have your bases (and his penis) covered. For more information on how to protect yourself during sex, read Safe, Sound & Sexy: A Safer Sex How-To
And pay special attention to the possibility of infections. You are younger and less-developed, and this means that you are especially susceptible to infections (particularly inflammations of the cervix). Perfect and consistent condom use will be your best protection against infections.
One more thing, make sure you can see a doctor. Now that you will be sexually active, you will need to be up-front and honest with your doctor. Your doctor needs to know that you are sexually active so s/he will know to examine you for certain things on a regular basis. Your doctor will even recommend that you have a pelvic exam. While it may make you uneasy, it's all part of ensuring you stay healthy.

East Los Santos
this wiki
|This article or section is Under Construction.
East Los Santos is a large district in the east of Los Santos, hence the name. It is featured in two games, GTA San Andreas and GTA V.
East Los Santos has a high crime rate. Prostitutes, gang bangers and drug dealers can often be found in the area causing disturbance. East Los Santos is largely residential but does have some popular small-time businesses and zones. The area consists of many small, single-family houses, apartments and housing projects. East Los Santos is a predominantly Mexican/hispanic neighborhood (despite being controlled by the Ballas (GTA San Andreas) and has many Mexican-themed stores. In GTA San Andreas, East Los Santos had a population of 403.
Events of GTA San Andreas
In Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, East Los Santos is a stronghold for the Ballas gang, who use the area as a base to launch attacks on Grove Street Family gang members in Ganton. Conflict between the Ballas and Los Santos Vagos gangs does not occur in East Los Santos, due to the two gangs co-operating with each. Carl Johnson and Denise Robinson meet in East Los Santos during the mission Burning Desire. Carl had set on fire some homes owned by the Los Santos Vagos, however Carl rescued Denise from the fire after hearing her cries for help.
East Los Santos is also the main setting for the final mission of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas: End of the Line. During this mission, Carl Johnson fights his way past Ballas, Los Santos Vagos, San Fierro Rifa and Russian Mafia gang members in order to reach Big Smoke, who he then kills. Frank Tenpenny then sets Smoke's Crack Palace on fire, leaving Carl having to fight his way back out of the building whilst also combating the flames. After escaping the building, which suffers a series of explosions as Carl escapes, Carl and Sweet Johnson chase Tenpenny through Ganton and other districts.
Events of GTA V
It is based on the real life district of East Los Angeles
Gang control
GTA San Andreas
The district is controlled by the Ballas gang. East Los Santos has, prior to early 1992, had areas controlled by the Los Santos Vagos and the Grove Street Families.
The neighborhood is located in the southern region of Los Santos and it is possible that gangs are present there.

The ability for GTA protagonists to swim in deep bodies of water was introduced in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, and has since been seen in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, Grand Theft Auto IV, Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, and Grand Theft Auto V.
Player interaction with water prior to GTA San Andreas
Prior to GTA San Andreas, bodies of water were little more than lethal obstacles which acted as boundaries to prevent players from reaching locked areas. In Grand Theft Auto 1 and Grand Theft Auto 2, the player is instantaneously wasted should they fall into water, regardless of whether or not they are in a vehicle. Although this only applies to water they have fallen into from a height, water the player enters that is on their level allows them to paddle for a couple of seconds which will drown them eventually if they don't get back out again. (In GTA 1).
In Grand Theft Auto III and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, falling or wading into deep water is still potentially lethal, as the protagonist will rapidly lose health if they wade more than chest-deep into water.
GTA: San Andreas is the first game to debut swimming as an ability. However it's contemporary, Grand Theft Auto Advance and the subsequent game Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories does not allow swimming (with exposure to water in LCS being once again near-instantly lethal). GTA Liberty City Stories is the last game of the series thus far to disallow swimming.
GTA San Andreas
In GTA San Andreas, the player can float (in a water treading position), and swim in any deep body of water using directional controls. The player can perform a breaststroke to swim at a slow pace; holding the sprinting key or button allows the player to perform a faster front crawl. Tapping the sprint key or button rapidly adds slightly more speed.
The player can dive underwater by using the "fire" key or button while in water. This allows the player to swim deep underwater using directional controls; the sprint key or button gives the player forward movement.
Whenever the player enters water, a blue bar denoting the player's oxygen appears on the game's HUD, beneath the Health and Armor bars. When underwater or in a sinking vehicle, the bar will gradually empty; when exhausted, the player's health will be reduced instead, leading to eventual drowning. The oxygen bar is replenished by returning to the surface of the water. The player's lung capacity determines how long the player can stay underwater, and is improved both by continuously diving and by collecting Oysters. The player can tread water and swim on the surface of the water indefinitely.
Diving allows the player to sneak past guards undetected in some missions, and can be used to explore the waters of San Andreas, revealing other secrets. In addition, the ability to swim allows the player to enter locked regions before they officially open, leading to a four-star wanted level in the process.
To date, GTA San Andreas still possesses the most sophisticated swimming system in the series.
GTA: Vice City Stories - GTA: Chinatown Wars
Following GTA San Andreas, four games have employed a swimming feature, but all employ simplified versions of GTA San Andreas' game mechanics, with the diving element absent.
While GTA Vice City Stories allows the player to swim, it only permits swimming for a limited amount of time, determined by a "stamina" bar which decreases as the player remains in the water. When the bar runs out, the player's health decreases, followed by drowning. This is to prevent the player from swimming across to still-locked areas. The player, however, can give the main character infinite stamina by beating the "Beach Patrol" side mission (by which time all regions of Vice City have been unlocked anyway).
In GTA IV and GTA Chinatown Wars, the player may stay in the water for as long as they please during multiplayer sessions in GTA IV; however, the player will begin to lose health after a certain amount of time in the water. Also in GTA IV, the player cannot swim underwater. The player can swim between the islands in lieu of using bridges, though attempting to access locked areas prematurely results in a 6 star wanted level.
Grand Theft Auto V
Grand Theft Auto V will include an improvement in the diving feature introduced in GTA: San Andreas. The game would include a form of underworld diving known as scuba diving, which includes a full scuba gear, as well as much more detailed oceanic environment.
Missions involving swimming
- GTA San Andreas
- Pier 69
- Amphibious Assault
- The Da Nang Thang
- Vertical Bird
- Beat the Cock! (two optional side missions)
- GTA Vice City Stories
- Grand Theft Auto IV
- Waste Not Want Knots
- A Revenger's Tragedy (Deal ending)
- GTA Chinatown Wars

In an alert issued today, state health officials say the woman, who has not been identified, is hospitalized with what's thought to be Powassan encephalitis.
A woman from Maine's midcoast area is being treated for a rare tick-borne illness that in severe cases can cause neurological damage.
In an update issued today, state health officials say the woman, who has not been identified, is hospitalized with what's thought to be Powassan encephalitis. Maine Center for Disease Control Director Dr. Sheila Pinette says, if confirmed, it would be the first documented case of the illness in Maine since 2004.
Pinette says the woman was diagnosed with the illness in early December. She had no travel history, so Pinette says the disease was acquired locally.
The virus is transmitted by a bite from an infected tick. Officials say ticks in the adult stage can remain active through the winter when the temperature rises to 40 degrees Fahrenheit or above.
Symptoms of Powassan include fever, headache, vomiting, weakness, confusion, seizures, and memory loss. The infection can also lead to long-term neurologic problems, Pinette says.
Pinette says there's no specific treatment for Powassan, but those with severe cases often require hospitalization. She says several other tick-borne diseases can also be spread during the warmer days of winter, including Lyme disease, anaplasmosis and abesiosis.
Pinette says people should continue to take steps to avoid tick bites, such as wearing protective clothing, applying an EPA-approved insect repellant, and doing frequent body checks for ticks.

- Jon Embree's firing as CU Buffs football coach stuns his players
Any debate regarding whether or not Colorado should have fired football coach Jon Embree after two seasons is a moot point.
Athletic director Mike Bohn made the move, so now what?
Having covered CU athletics for more than 15 years (I'm now on the Broncos beat for the remainder of their season), I have determined that this much is clear:
As much as CU needs to hire a coach, it needs to find an offense.
Bottom line, that's been the problem. College offenses are giving scoreboards a workout like never before. And Colorado hasn't kept up. Not even close.
The Buffs haven't averaged at least 30 points a game since CU won the 2001 Big 12 Conference championship under Gary Barnett. That's not good enough.
And it's especially not good enough in the high-flying Pac-12, where every team, it seems, sports a quarterback with an NFL future. When facing a Pac-12 schedule, you'd better plan on scoring well into the 30s on every given Saturday just to have a chance.
Not only has CU not kept up with modern offenses, but also the Buffs have fallen further behind.
Embree's two Colorado teams averaged just 18.8 points per game. CU's opponents? They went for 41.3 in games against the Buffs — and sometimes with second-stringers playing in the second half.
The trend really began during Dan Hawkins' five-year regime. From 2006-10, Hawkins' teams averaged just 22.1 points at a time when the Big 12 suddenly went airborne and produced a slew of pro QBs including Josh Freeman, Sam Bradford, Colt McCoy and Blaine Gabbert.
Only one Hawkins-coached Buffs team produced 25 or more points per game. The 2007 squad averaged 27.6 points per outing. Not coincidentally, that team is the last to represent Colorado in a bowl game.
For the five-year period, Hawkins' teams were outscored by an average of 22.1 to 28.1. Not nearly good enough.
Here's my observation about today's college football: Especially for a building — or rebuilding — program, it's much easier to install a wide-open, air-it-out offensive attack and try to keep up with the Joneses, than it is to recruit enough elite-level athletes for a suffocating defense.
My suggestion to Colorado is to look for a creative head coach with a reputation of being an offensive whiz. And then hope the new coach hires a top-shelf defensive coordinator.
That's the only way to catch up and keep up. Especially in the pass-happy Pac-12.
